1. _ Shine On
I was looking at a photograph,
Taken in a garden long before the war,
And out on the lawn,
There were old men and dogs and little children,
All of them gone forever;
And there were people by the waterside,
Standing in the same place where I am today,
Nothing has changed - but you know,
That time is moving like a river,
It can only be love forever;
We shine on, brighter than the sun,
Live for every moment, before the moment's gone,
We shine on, you and me tonight,
Way across the universe,
Burning like a fire in the night;
There are those who can never cross,
The space between a father and a son,
When they are young,
We must say all the words that should be spoken,
Before they are lost forever;
And I was looking at a photograph,
Taken from a window way above the world,
And we've got to learn,
We must leave here a garden for our children,
When we are gone forever;
We shine on, brighter than the sun,
Live for every moment, before the moment's gone,
We shine on, you and me tonight,
Way across the universe,
Burning like a fire in the night;
Leave here a garden for the children,
Leave here a new world,
In the night, in the night,
Burning like a fire in the night.

2. _ Brother John
Well Brother John went down to the garden
On a long hot summer's day.
To watch that girl, he would hide in the shadows
As she worked the time away.
With her long black hair and her eyes of fire,
And a body to drive men crazy...!
It was on that day there would be a change
In the world of Brother John.
She felt his eyes and she walked up beside him
And she took him by the hand.
She said, "Brother John, it's so hard to be holy,
Would you like to be a man?
I will meet you tonight at the monastery wall--
If you're there we will find out together,"
And the Devil said, "There's a place in Hell,
For the soul of Brother John!"
Hallelujah! Temptation is here!
It's not a dream anymore.
Hallelujah! It's finally here...
I've been waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting...!
Well Brother John lay tossing and turning
In his bed in the heat of the night.
He heard his name and he went to the window
Where she was in the pale moonlight.
Oh the sins of the flesh are too much to deny!
He was lost to her body forever!
And the Devil laughed and the angels cried
For the soul of Brother John.
Hallelujah! Temptation is here!
It's not a dream anymore.
Hallelujah! It's finally here...
I've been waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting...!
Hallelujah! Temptation is here!
It's not a dream anymore.
Hallelujah! It's finally here...
I've been waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting...!
Temptation is here... for Brother John...
Temptation is here... for Brother John....

3. _ By My Side
It's all right I'm not lost,
I've got a reading on the Southern Cross,
And I've been listening to the radio,
For signs of new life,
Some people find the game too tough,
And there are those who've simply had enough,
But I'm still here and I'm not giving up,
I'm going the distance;
Whatever it takes ... I have to fight,
To build a better world ... and make it right,
And when I am alone ... it's late at night,
I reach out and you're right here by my side;
When everything has gone,
You help me carry on,
You lift me up, you make me strong,
You give love to see me through,
Oo oo oo what would I do,
Without you by my side,
By my side,
And out here on the flight,
I'm on a wing and a prayer tonight,
The moon is showing me the way to go,
I'm flying forever.
I've got what it takes ... to win the fight,
And build a better world ... and make it right,
But when I am alone ... it's late at night,
I reach out and you're here by my side,
When everything has gone,
You help me carry on,
You lift me up, you make me strong,
You give love to see me through,
Oo oo oo what would I do,
Without you by my side,
Always you're in my heart,
Always by my side,
Always you're in my life,
Always right here, and I love you now,
Always you're in my world,
Always I think what would I do without you, without you,
By my side,
Always you're in my heart...
And I need you now...

4. _ The Connemara Coast
Nothing can compare with the Connemara coast,
Gazing out in silence with the one you love the most,
The beauty of this place and the echoes deep inside,
Make me think we're only just a moment in time;
Then lead on good light gently through the night,
Hand in hand together we will cross that line;
Nothing can compare with the way you are tonight,
Lying here beside me in the firelight,
And one thing I will say before this journey's end,
That more than being my lover, you are my friend;
Then lead on good light gently through the night,
Hand in hand together we will cross that line,
Whatever may come and wherever we may go,
I will always be with you,
Because you are my heart and soul,
Whatever may come and wherever we may go,
I will always be with you,
Because you are my heart and soul.

5. _ Talk To Me
Talk to me, I need a little advice,
I've got you on my mind,
Words of passion coming out of the night,
You make me feel alive;
I'm not one in a million, I'm a million in one,
Thinking of ways to your heart,
I've got a feeling that it will be your hand,
Taking me higher and higher,
Talk to me! Talk to me...
Talk to me! Talk to me...
Look at me 'cos I've been looking at you,
I see desire in the night again,
Fascination and mysterious touch,
I know you feel the same;
This is one in a million, it's a million to one,
But I will be your lover in time,
Go with the feeling that is breaking inside,
You will discover it when you,
Talk to me! Talk to me...
Talk to me! Talk to me...
I am the one, yes I know I am the one,
I am the one for you now,
I want you beside me,
I dream of your body,
I see you and me there forever...
Talk to me! Talk to me...
Talk to me! Talk to me...

6. _ A Celebration
Don't worry darling,
That's not forever in my eyes,
Just want to hold you for a while,
Nobody knows how it will go,
Spending this night together;
I can hardly believe it's true,
I can hardly believe it's you,
A celebration...
Turn it on and let it fly away,
And let's see what we can do,
Oh little darling, it's really something,
When it's me and when it's you;
I'm going to give you everything I have,
Until the night is through,
Did you ever believe in love?
Did you ever believe in love?
I've got a feeling,
I've got a feeling in my heart,
We'd be together from the start,
Something inside you just cannot hide,
Is waiting the time to show it;
I can hardly believe it's true,
I can hardly believe it's you,
A celebration...
Turn it on and let it fly away,
And let's see what we can do,
Oh little darling, ain't you something,
When it's me and when it's you;
I'm going to give you everything I have,
Until the night is through,
Did you ever believe in love?
Did you ever believe in love?
Well this is it!
Something inside you cannot hide,
Is waiting the time to show it;
And I can hardly believe it's true,
I can hardly believe it's you,
A celebration...
And this is it!

7. _ In Your Eyes
Some people fall in love
In rooms that are so dark.
They can't see where they are going
And they lose their hearts.
But when I saw your face,
It was a light so strong!
I could feel a long night coming on...!
In your eyes...!
In your eyes...!
And I saw driving down to the river;
Laughing in the rain;
Dancing out in the moonlight;
Papers in bed!
And I saw your delights as a lover
Until the break of day!
And oh... every time I look
It's you and me together... in your eyes.
Some people say that time changes everything.
With love there's no way of knowing
What the world may bring.
But I don't mind at all, because it's you and me!
And all I've ever wanted, I can see...
In your eyes...!
In your eyes...!
And we are driving down to the river;
Laughing in the rain;
Dancing out in the moonlight;
Papers in bed.
And I feel your delights as a lover
Until the break of day!
Oh and every time I look
It's you and me together in your eyes!
In your eyes...!
In your eyes...!
And I feel your delights as a lover
Until the break of day!
And oh every time I look
It's you and me forever... in your eyes!
In your eyes...!
In your eyes...!
Driving down to the river...
Your delights as a lover...
Dancing out in the moonlight...

8. _ Where We Will Be Going
I've got every reason to be high,
I've got a place in the heaven beyond,
I've got dreams to live and I've got love to give,
And I know it in my heart and soul,
Where we will be going;
Well I lay me down to the northern sky,
I wake up with the light of the sun,
And the savage beast will surely die,
In the Bethlehem far below,
Where we will be going;
Oh... I've got the gold, and I've got the silver,
Oh... and I've got a place to call my own,
It's a way of living forever,
It's a way of living the dream,
It's a way of living the whole life,
Come down to the river,
Come down to the sea;
I remember footsteps on the moon,
After Dallas darkened days,
When the whole world seemed to stop and look,
And they ask themselves every day,
Where are we going?
But the Bowman turned and carried on,
HAL prepared for childhood's end,
And it came out of dark and wintry skies,
On a terrible December night,
In New York City;
Oh... hey John! are you out there listening,
Oh... way across the universe ?
It's a way of living forever,
It's a way of living the dream,
It's a way of living the whole life,
Come down to the river,
Come down to the sea;
Oh ay oh...
Oh ay oh...
Oh ay oh...
Come down to the river,
Come down to the sea;
I've got every reason to be high,
I've got a place in the heaven beyond,
I've got dreams to live and I've got love to give,
And I know it in my heart and soul,
Where we will be going
Where we will be going
Where we will be going...

9. _ Heart Of Darkness
Last night I saw it there, shining in the dark again,
The light that all men seem to fear,
They say that sailors were drowning in the bay,
And people kept away,
Waiting for the riches that a wreck would bring,
When the morning comes,
And on and on that light returns again,
To haunt the ones who would not hear the pain;
I took the old path down, climbing over rocks and stones,
The place I knew when I was young,
And in my fear I had to carry on,
Where no-one else had gone,
Looking in the heart of darkness from above,
To the man inside,
I took my chance and set off for the light,
And started the journey of my life;
And in the darkest hour that light was calling me,
Through the doorway to another world,
And there below me I saw all the days of my life,
Till the moment I stood on the shore,
Worlds away, this was my destiny,
To be back here in another time,
And all around me I saw the faces that I knew,
Reaching out, "there is nothing to fear,"
Worlds away,
Come with me;
Last night I saw it there, shining in the dark again,
The light that all men seem to fear;
Come with me, come with me, come with me...

10. _ She Means Everything To Me
When the night comes she'll be here,
Lying down in my bed,
I have woken way before the dawn,
With all the things that she said;
On and on I hear gondoliers,
Passing in the dark,
It's another moment for the heart,
'Cos she means everything to me,
She means everything to me,
I know that I love her;
When the day comes she'll be gone,
From the one who will not see,
He doesn't love her, he doesn't love her any more,
But he will not set her free;
So on and on we've been like aeroplanes,
Passing in the night,
But there's no more hiding it this time,
That she means everything to me,
She means everything to me,
I know that I need her;
There comes a time when we must be,
With those we love,
And she means everything to me,
She means everything to me,
She means everything to me,
She is the one who gives me life,
She will be here with me tonight...

11. _ Separate Tables
At separate tables we sit down to eat,
In separate bedrooms we go to sleep at night,
I only wish you knew how much,
You've been on my mind;
I think about you when the morning comes,
I think about you when all my day is done,
Wondering what you are doing now,
Are you lonely too?
Because I - I miss you here tonight,
And I wish you were by my side,
And I don't want to let go;
At separate tables we sit down to write,
The separate letters that never see the light,
If only we could just agree,
To read between the lines;
I want to see you and I know what I will say,
We must be crazy to throw it all away,
Never knowing what is lost,
Before it's all too late;
And I - I miss you here tonight,
And I wish you were by my side,
And I don't want to let go;
Yes I - I miss you here tonight,
And when I hold you by my side,
Well I'm not going to let go.

12. _ Making The Perfect Man
It was way after midnight, all the village was asleep,
All except for one young villain through the night did creep,
He went down to the church, started ringing the bell,
Everybody came out looking, running like the hounds of hell;
"There are lights in the castle, they are blazing all night long,
Let me tell you everybody there is something going on,"
So they took to the torches and went over the wall,
Someone went ahead to tell of horrors hiding in the hall;
"What did you see?" - "I saw an apparition,"
"What did you see?" - "A monster on a bed,"
"What did you see?" - "I saw an old magician,
Waking up the living from the dead!"
Keep away, keep away, they are making the perfect man,
Keep away, keep away, they are making the perfect,
Making the perfect man!
So they called for the doctor, the doctor said, "iT's strange,
He's got pistols on his finger, he's got love on the brain,
He's got a tongue good for lying and the legs to run away,
He will fool all the people all the time some day!"
"What will he be?" - "A leader of the country,"
"What will he be?" - "A member of the press,"
"What will he be?" - "A banker selling moonbeams,
You can watch your money going west!"
Keep away, keep away, they are making the perfect man,
Keep away, keep away, they are making the perfect,
Making the perfect man!
"I'd like to spend a night with you,
and show you what I am..."
"What will he be?" - "Could make a politician,"
"What will he be?" - "A member of the press,"
"What will he be?" - "A banker selling moonbeams,
You can watch your money, you can watch your money,
You can watch your money going west!"
Keep away, keep away, they are making the perfect man,
Keep away, keep away, they are making the perfect,
Making the perfect man!
Perfect man, perfect man,
Making the perfect man, making the perfect man!
I'd like to spend a night with you...
Making the perfect man, making the perfect man!
