1. _ Ghosts
Writers: leo sayer, les nicol & frank farrell
Ghosts
People that i left behind
Wondering lonely in the night
All in my memory
Dreams
Long forgotten flights of time
Flashbacks flooding through my mind
Of all the things you said to me
In the shadows where i walk
In the silence
The wind talks of you
Like a ghost
Haunting the night
So you wander through my life
Ghosts
People that i don't believe
Just what they've got to do with me
Oh -- i can't see it
Ghosts
Long forgotten -- in time
Look at those flashbacks
Flooding through my mind
Of all the things you've said to me
In the shadows where i walk
In the silence
The wind talks of you
Just like a ghost
Haunting the night
You know you wander through my life

2. _ Lost Control
Writer: al kooper
You were out there
And i thought that you were
For the asking
I've never been unfair
But i was looking for a love
That would be everlasting
Three years of taking
Anything that i could find
A one night stand -- you understand
Wasn't what i had in mind
Believe me that i lost control
I wanted you and that was
All that really mattered
Oh, i lost control
I couldn't tell this whole world
Had shattered
Lover, i could see
Was what you whipped on me
And i lost my control
Now he was your man
He had his faults
But you done your best to stick by him
But then one day
Bam! bam! he shot you down
Without anyone around who
Would try him
Three years of taking
Anything that he could find
A one night stand he didn't understand
It wasn't what you had in mind
And i believe you
Lost control
You ran to me and it felt
Like a whole new feeling
You lost control
You had an open wound
And i was so good at healing
But all you could see
Was the good side of me
And you lost control
No consideration
We couldn't help ourselves inside
It was a sorry situation
And he came to me one night
And he cried
He said you cut me worse -- ow!
Than any woman ever hurt a man
I said, my man, i'm real sorry
But that was not my plan
And i just believe
(you see this is what really happened)
I just lost control -- that's what i did
I just lost control
My whole world had turned around
And you were runnin' free
When you came to me
Oh we tried -- we tried our best

3. _ The World Has Changed
Writers: leo sayer, billy livsey & sergio cuevas
Though the world has changed
We're still the same
You know that i love you
Though the world has changed
We're still the same
You know that i love you -- yeah
Counting the months and the years
When i lived alone
The days were so bleak
And the nights were so black and cold
Walkin' around in the street
In the pouring rain
Hanging 'round waitin' for love
But it never came
Suddenly you were there
Though i never thought about you
Now that the world has changed
It's so strange that i found you
Sharing a secret that no one
Could understand
Feeling brave in my heart
Yet too scared to let go of your hand
Runnin' wild in the streets
Just the way all the young lovers do
You only livin' for me
And me only for you
Suddenly life has changed
When you said i love you
And though the words were plain
It's so strange
You said i love you
And oh how my life has changed
After searchin' in vain
I found you
Though the world has changed
We're still the same -- i still love you
Though the world has changed
Ahh, we're still the same, y'know i love you
One night i thought that you were gone
What could i do?
Runnin' around in the pouring rain
Lookin' for you
Wondering if i'd ever see you again
Then through the darkness
I heard you calling my name
Loving you when you're not there
I'm never lonely anywhere
Outside the world has changed
We're the same
I still love you
And though the world has changed
The words are the same
You know i love you

4. _ The End
Writers: leo sayer & david courtney
He says he doesn't care
To the girl with the painted hair
And staggers through the angry crowd
Like it isn't there
Feels like a wall of sound
As he crashes down
No one stops to look when he hits the ground
We're the nouveau rich
On a one way trip
Living out on a razor's edge
Just to get our kicks
We're gonna take a stand
Till the world is in our hands
And if we win or lose
We don't give a damn
Hollow people living empty lives
Looking vacant in the neon lights
Who needs the truth
When you can live a lie?
Can't stop now, it's too late
'cos we're running blind
Till the end comes like a thunder
And we all fall under
No one gives a damn
Come on now, let's meet the end
He tries to make it home
Head like a block of stone
His eyes are so closed up now
His arm so full of dope
There is nowhere to run
He cries out but no one comes
In the back of some dark alley
He dies alone
Hollow people living empty lives
Hearts feel nothing in the neon lights
Feelings here are so cheap these days
They don't mean a thing
No one really cares
Whether we lose or if we win
Yeah -- we're the angry youth
Don't wanna be like you
Yeah -- we're the nouveau riche
Yeah -- we gotcha in our grip
There's no escape for you
'cos we're running blind
Yeah, we're the angry youth
Don't wanna be like you
We've got your bridges crossed
We won -- you lost
It's the end

5. _ Oh Girl
Writers: eugene record
Oh girl
I'd be in trouble if you left me now
'cos i don't know where
To look for love
I just don't know how
Oh girl
How i depend on you
To give me love when i need it
Right on time
You would always be there
All my friends call me a fool
They say
Let the woman take care of you
So i
Try to be hip and think like the crowd
But not even the crowd
Will help me now
Oh girl
Tell me what am i gonna do?
'cos i know i got
Such a guilty face
Girl, i feel so out of place
All my friends call me a fool
They say
The woman should be taking
Care of you
So i
Try to be hip and think like the crowd
But not even the crowd
Will help me now
Oh girl
I guess i'll never know
I could save myself
A lot of useless tears
Girl, i've gotta get away from here
Oh girl
Pain will double if you leave me now
'cos i don't know where
To look for love
And i just don't know how

6. _ Work
Writers: leo sayer, tom snow & john vastano
Five days out of seven
Eight hours of every one
I'm tryin' to buy a piece of heaven
But i'll be gone
Before that heaven comes
Work, work, work
Who nees it?
It's all i ever seem to do
I'm killin' myself for a livin'
Livin' the workin' man's blues
Minute to minute
Day after day
Wherever i go it's always the same
I work a little longer
To make up my pay
But when the cheque comes along
They've taken half of it away
All the work, work, work
Who nees it?
All i ever seem to do
You know i'm killin' myself for a livin'
I should be stayin' at home with you
City to city
All over the world
Wherever i been to -- that's all i ever heard
You work a little longer
To double up on that pay
When the taxman comes along
They take half of it away
Work, work, work
Who nees it?
It's all i ever seem to do
I'm killin', killin' time for a livin'
Livin' the workin' man's blues
Yeah, it's all work! work! work! work!
That's all it is
Killin' myself for a livin'
Like drivin' a nail straight into my hand
I've been workin' my life away

7. _ When The Money Runs Out
Writers: leo sayer & ray parker, jr.
When the money runs out
What will we do?
Turn around and start anew
Takes all your lovin' babe
To pull me through
Without your love what would i do?
'cos i'd put you and me babe
Up against the world
There ain't nobody else
Like you 'n' me, girl
Who wants the money
And the luxary
When love 'n' happiness
Is all you need?
Can't you see all you're living for
Is dollars and cents
It don't make no sense
And all you think about
In the final end
Is spend, spend, spend
So when the money runs out
We'll fly away
Quit the city life 'n' find a hideaway
Live in the country, babe
Off the fat of the land
With nothin' to worry 'bout
No money in the bank
Who needs the money
What does it mean?
Another roll of paper, babe, in a sea of green
To live life for money
You gotta be mad
When i watch you turn it up
You know i feel so sad
So when the money runs out
What will you do?
Turn to me, babe, 'n' i'll pull you through
We'll give back the diamonds
'n' we'll sell the car
We'll live the simple life
And make a brand new start yeah
'cos id put you 'n' me babe
Up against the world
There ain't nobody else
Like you 'n' me, girl
Take away the money, babe
Look at what we go
Warm love 'n' happiness
We got the lot

8. _ An Englishman In The Usa
Writers: leo sayer & les davidson
Rambling 'round your city streets
I feel no earth beneath my feet
And i feel my life
Is crumbling into, into the sea
But i can't swim
Three thousand miles
So all i have is lonely nights
I'm an englishman
Lost in the usa
And it's a long way back home
Such a long way back home
And i'm wondering
Where am i gonna go
Line's dead -- operator's gone
And now the fear is coming on
And i hear my love
Wondering where have i gone
So i'm gambling bucks for pounds
Yeah, but lady luck
Just won't come around
For an englishman
Who is stuck in the usa
And it's a long way back home
Such a long way back home
And i'm wondering
Will i ever get away
So here i am and there are you
Where wishful thoughts
Don't serve no use
And all the worrying in the world
Won't pull me through
So i think of love that
Might have been
And an airline ticket
That's like a dream
For an englishman
Who is lost in the usa
Such a long way back home
Such a long way back home
And i'm wondering
Will i ever get to go
And i'm waiting for you
To take me home

9. _ Takin' The Easy Way Out
Writers: leo sayer & david courtney
You contend
That you'll never got back to her again
You're as free as a night without end
So you tell your friends
Just what you had to endure
When you told her never, never again
And as the room about you starts to bend
You pretend
That you've taken the easy way out
Though you know ehn you told her last night
You were fakin' the easy way out
With one hand reachin' fo the door
But your feet weren't movin'
They were nailed to the floor
As she told you once more
There's no easy way to get out
She's not like you
She'd rather stay at home
'n' not get the blues
And if you ever do try to intrude
She's so respectfully rude
So it was hard to believe
Last night while you were drunk 'n'
Threatening to leave
That she walked through the door with such ease
'n' threw you the key
And she's takin' the easy way out
And you're alone with no number to call
She's taken the easy way out
With one hand reachin' for the door
And you so speechless
Marooned on the floor
She walked out of your life
Couldn't stand it no more
Now you're all on your own
'cos she's taken the easy way out
You know she's taken the easy way out
Oh, but your pride will only admit to a lie
Yeah, she's taken the easy way out
But, to your friends
You're the hero of the night
Drowning with beef all the tears in your eyes
Hopin' it don't show that you're dyin' inside
'cause you can't quite believe
That she's taken the easy way out
There's no goin' back now
Stuck here on your own
Lookin' for a home
Drunk and on the streets
Stuck on your feet

10. _ Who Will The Next Fool Be
Writers: leo sayer & david courtney
Falling -- oh, oh, i'm falling
Falling so deep in love with you
But you say that
Only a fool could fall in love
With a girl like you
If that's the truth
What have i got to lose?
And i wonder who -- i wonder who
Who will the next fool be
Will it be me?
I wonder who
Can you tell me please
Who will the next fool be
Could it be me?
Lonely -- i'm so lonely
Maybe, maybe you're lonely to
So don't spend your time
Just sitting around
Wondering who will he be
Who will the next fool be?
Let it be me
I'm the one you need
Can you tell me please?
Who will the next fool be?
Let it be me -- i don't mind
Falling -- oh, oh, i'm falling
Falling -- what can i do
Thinking a girl like you
Could fall for a fool like me
Who will the next fool be
Could it be me?
Can you tell me please
When you make up your mind
Who will the next fool be?
Let it be me
