1. _ C'etait Toi (you Were The One)
Here i am again
In this smoky place
With my brandy eyes
I'm talking to myself
You were the one
You were the one
Here i go again
Looking for your face
And i realize
That i should look for someone else
But you were the one
You were the one
I'm looking for comfort
That i can take
From someone else
But after all
I know there is no one
That can save me from myself
You were the only one
Me revoici
Dans ce bar enfume
Avec mes yeux ivres
Je me parle a moi meme
C'etait toi
C'etait toi
Me revoici
Cherchant ton visage
Et je realise
Que je devrais en chercher une autre
C'etait toi
You were the one
Je recherche l'affection
Qu'une autre pourrait me donner
Mais apres tout
Je sais qu'il n'y a personne
Personne qui puisse me sauver
Tu etais la seule
I'm looking for comfort
That i can take
From someone else
But after al
I know there is no one
That can save me, save me from myself
You were the only one

2. _ All For Leyna
She stood on the tracks
Waving her arms
Leading me to that third rail shock
Quick as a wink
She changed her mind
She gave me a night
That's all it was
What will it take until i stop
Kidding myself
Wasting my time
There's nothing else i can do
'cause i'm doing it all for leyna
I don't want anyone new
'cause i'm living it all for leyna
There's nothing in it for you
'cause i'm giving it all to leyna
We laid on the beach
Watching the tide
She didn't tell me there were rocks
Under the waves
Right off the shore
Washed up on the sand
Barely alive
Wishing the undertow would stop
How can a man take anymore
There's nothing else i can do
'cause i'm doing it all for leyna
I don't want anyone new
'cause i'm living it all for leyna
There's nothing in it for you
'cause i'm giving it all to leyna
I'm failing in school
Losing my friends
Making my family lose their minds
I don't want to eat
I don't want to sleep
I only want leyna one more time
Now i'm in my room
Watching the tube
Telling myself she still may drop
Over to say
She's changed her mind
So, i wait in the dark
Listening for her,
Instead of my old man saying stop...
Kidding yourself,
Wasting your time
There's nothing else i can do
'cause i'm doing it all for leyna
I don't want anyone new
'cause i'm living it all for leyna
There's nothing in it for you
'cause i'm giving it all to leyna
All for leyna
All for leyna

3. _ You May Be Right
Friday night i crashed your party
Saturday i said i'm sorry
Sunday came and trashed me out again
I was only having fun
Wasn't hurting anyone
And we all enjoyed the weekend for a change
I've been stranded in the combat zone
I walked through bedford stuy alone
Even rode my motorcycle in the rain
And you told me not to drive
But i made it home alive
So you said that only proves that i'm insane
You may be right
I may be crazy
But it just may be a lunatic you're looking for
Turn out the light
Don't try to save me
You may be wrong for all i know
But you may be right
Remember how i found you there
Alone in your electric chair
I told you dirty jokes until you smiled
You were lonely for a man
I said take me as i am
'cause you might enjoy some madness for awhile
Now think of all the years you tried to
Find someone to satisfy you
I might be as crazy as you say
If i'm crazy then it's true
That it's all because of you
And you wouldn't want me any other way
You may be right
I may be crazy
But it just may be a lunatic you're looking for
It's too late to fight
It's too late to change me
You may be wrong for all i know
But you may be right
You may be right
I may be crazy
But it just may be a lunatic you're looking for
Turn out the light
Don't try to save me
You may be wrong for all i know
But you may be right
You may be wrong but you may be right
You may be wrong but you may be right

4. _ Don't Ask Me Why
All the waiters in your grand cafe
Leave their tables when you blink
Every dog must have his everyday
Every drunk must have his drink
Don't wait for answers
Just take your chances
Don't ask me why
All your life you had to stand in line
Still you're standing on your feet
All your choices made you change your mind
Now your calender's complete
Don't wait for answers
Just take your chances
Don't ask me why
You can say the human heart
Is only make-believe
And i am only fighting fire with fire
But you are still a victim
Of the accidents you leave
As sure as i'm a victim of desire
All the servants in your new hotel
Throw their roses at your feet
Fool them all but baby i can tell
You're no stranger to the street
Don't ask for favors
Don't talk to strangers
Don't ask me why
Yesterday you were an only child
Now your ghosts have gone away
You can kill them in the classic style
Now you, "parlez vous francais"
Don't look for answers
You took your chances
Don't ask me why
Don't ask me why

5. _ Through The Long Night
The cold hands
The sad eyes
The dark irish silence
It's so late
But i'll wait
Through the long night with you
With you
The warm tears
The bad dreams
The soft trembling shoulders
The old fears
But i'm here
Through the long night with you
With you
Oh, what has it cost you
I almost lost you
A long, long time ago
Oh, you should have told me
But you had to bleed to know
All your past sins
Are since past
You should be sleeping
It's all right
Sleep tight
Through the long night with me
With me
No, i didn't start it
You're broken hearted
From a long, long time ago
Oh, the way you hold me
Is all that i need to know
And it's so late
But i'll wait
Through the long night with you
With you

6. _ Sleeping With The Television On
I've been watching you waltz all night diane
Nobody's found a way behind your defenses
They never notice the zap gun in your hand
Until you're pointing it and stunning their senses
All night long, all night long
You'll shoot 'em down because you're waiting for somebody good to come on
All night long, all night long
But you'll be sleeping with the television on
You say you're looking for someone solid here
You can't be bothered with those `just for the night' boys
Tonight unless you take some kind of chances dear
Tomorrow morning you'll wake up with the white noise
All night long, all night long
You're only standing there 'cause somebody once did somebody wrong
All night long, all night long
But you'll be sleeping with the television on
Your eyes are saying talk to me, talk to me
But your attitude is "don't waste my time"
Your eyes are saying talk to me, talk to me
But you won't hear a word 'cause it just might be the same old line
This isn't easy for me to say diane
I know you don't need anybody's protection
I really wish i was less of a thinking man
And more a fool who's not afraid of rejection
All night long, all night long
I'll just be standing here 'cause i know i don't have the guts to come on
All night long, all night long
And i'll be sleeping with the television on
Your eyes are saying talk to me, talk to me
But my attitude is "boy, don't waste your time"
Your eyes are saying talk to me, talk to me
But i won't say a word 'cause it just might be somebody else's same old line
All night long, all night long
We're only standing here 'cause somebody might do somebody wrong
All night long, all night long
And we'll be sleeping with the television on
Sleeping with the television on
Sleeping with the television on

7. _ Close To The Borderline
Blackout, heatwave, .44 caliber homicide
The buns drop dead and dogs go mad
In packs on the west side
Young girl standing on a ledge looks like another suicide
She wants to hit those bricks
'cause the news at six gotta stick to a deadline
While the millionaires hide in beekman place
The bag ladies throw their bones in my face
I get attacked by a kid with stereo sound
I don't want to hear it but he won't turn it down
Life is tough but it's just enough
To hold back the tears until it's closing time
I survived, i'm still alive
But i'm getting close to the borderline
Close to the borderline
A buck three eighty
Won't buy you much lately on the street these days
And when you can get gas
You know you can't drive fast anymore on the parkways
Rich man, poor man, either way american
Shoved into the lost and found
The no nuke yell we're gonna all go to hell
With the next big meltdown
I got remote control and a color t.v.
I don't change channels so they must change me
I got real close friends that will get me high
They don't know hot to talk and they ain't gonna try
I shouldn't bitch, i shouldn't cry
I'd start a revolution but i don't have time
I don't know why i'm still a nice guy
But i'm getting close to the borderline
Close to the borderline
I thought i'd sacrifice so many things
I thought i'd throw them all away
I didn't think i needed anything
But you can't afford to squander what you're not prepared to pay
I need a doctor for my pressure pills
I need a lawyer for my medical bills
I need a banker to finance my home
I need security to back my loan
It isn't new what i'm going through
But everybody knows you got to break sometime
Another night i fought the good fight
But i'm getting closer to the borderline
Closer to the borderline.

8. _ Sometimes A Fantasy
I didn't want to do it but i got too lonely
I had to call you up in the middle of the night
I know it's awful hard to try to make love long distance
But i really needed stimulation
Though it was only my imagination
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing
But sometimes a fantasy
Is all you need
When am i gonna take control get a hold of my emotions
Why does it only seem to hit me in the middle of the night
You told me there's a number i can always dial for assistance
I don't want to deal with outside action
Only you can give me satisfaction
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing
But sometimes a fantasy
Is all you need
Sure it would be better if i had you here to hold me
Be better baby but believe me it's the next best thing
I'm sure there's many times you've wanted me to hear your secrets
Don't be afraid to say the words that move me
Anytime you want to tell them to me
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing
But sometimes a fantasy
Is all you need
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing

9. _ It's Still Rock And Roll To Me
What's the matter with the clothes i'm wearing?
"can't you tell that your tie's too wide?"
Maybe i should buy some old tab collars?
"welcome back to the age of jive.
Where have you been hidin' out lately, honey?
You can't dress trashy till you spend a lot of money."
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound
Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me
What's the matter with the car i'm driving?
"can't you tell that it's out of style?"
Should i get a set of white wall tires?
"are you gonna cruise the miracle mile?
Nowadays you can't be too sentimental
Your best bet's a true baby blue continental."
Hot funk, cool punk, even if it's old junk
It's still rock and roll to me
Oh, it doesn't matter what they say in the papers
'cause it's always been the same old scene.
There's a new band in town
But you can't get the sound from a story in a magazine...
Aimed at your average teen
How about a pair of pink sidewinders
And a bright orange pair of pants?
"you could really be a beau brummel baby
If you just give it half a chance.
Don't waste your money on a new set of speakers,
You get more mileage from a cheap pair of sneakers."
Next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways
It's still rock and roll to me
What's the matter with the crowd i'm seeing?
"don't you know that they're out of touch?"
Should i try to be a straight 'a' student?
"if you are then you think too much.
Don't you know about the new fashion honey?
All you need are looks and a whole lotta money."
It's the next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways
It's still rock and roll to me
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound
Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me

10. _ I Don't Want To Be Alone
She said she'd meet me in the bar
At the plaza hotel
"wear a jacket and a tie"
"what's the occasion?"
She just smiled and she wouldn't say why
So here i am standing, waiting in the lobby
Sweating bullets in this stupid old suit
And when she sees me she busts out laughing
"you're a sad sight honey, but you look so cute" and
I don't want to be alone anymore
I was checking you out
I was just making sure
No, i don't want to be alone anymore
And, i want you tonight
Although you hurt me before
It didn't matter that i felt like a fool
'cause i forgot when she walked through the door
I said i'm sorry, but she said it was cool
And i don't want to be alone anymore
It's so confusing choosing sides
In the heat of the moment
Just to see if it's real
It's so erotic having you
Tell me how it should feel
But i'm avoiding all the hard cold facts
That i've got to face
So ask me just one question
When this magic night is through
Could it have been just anyone
Or did it have to be you
And, will you still be saying--
I don't want to be alone anymore
I was checking you out
I was just making sure
No, i don't want to be alone anymore
And, i want you tonight
Although you hurt me before
It didn't matter that i felt like a fool
'cause i forgot when she walked through the door
I said i'm sorry, but she said it was cool
And i don't want to be alone anymore
But, don't you know that it's wrong
It's wrong, it's wrong...
But like the song
Being caught by the wink of an eye
I can't be sure we'll get along
But i'm willing to try
As long as you can tell me--
I don't want to be alone anymore
I was checking you out
I was just making sure
No, i don't want to be alone anymore
And, i want you tonight
Although you hurt me before
It didn't matter that i felt like a fool
'cause i forgot when she walked through the door
I said i'm sorry, but she said it was cool
And i don't want to be alone anymore
