Synchronistic Wanderings

Everybody go round, go round, go round
Everybody lay down, lay down, lay down
Don't nobody make a sound
Everybody lay down
Everybody give up, give up, give up
Nobody hang tough, hang tough, hang tough
Life a little too rough
Everybody lay down

Everybody say hey, don't nobody say no?
Everybody say wait, don't nobody say go? (chorus)
Everybody lay down

Everybody cry loud, cry loud, cry loud
Nobody too proud, too proud, too proud
To tell you what they're all about
Everybody lay down

Everybody don't care, don't care, don't care
Nobody play fair, play fair, play fair
Maybe everybody too scared
Everybody lay down

(chorus)

Everybody lookin' higher
Everybody want to touch the fire
Nobody willing to lay it all down

Everybody want heaven
Everybody say amen
One thing is certain, you gotta lay it all down

(chorus)

Everybody go round, go round, go
Everybody lay down, lay down
Don't nobody make a sound
Everybody lay down

Everybody give up, give up, give up
Nobody hang tough, hang tough
When it's just a little rough, everybody lay down

Never been no fragile flower
I always got too much to say
Never had much luck with love and romance
I guess it's always been that way
But i've been seriously thinking
About slippin' on the velvet gloves
I know it's strange but my lucks about to change
Cause what we got here is true love, yeh, yeh
True love, you can't buy it - no, no
You know it ain't like nothin' else
True love, you really ought to try it
You owe it to yourself to get ya some - true love

You know i wake up every morning
It's the first thing on my mind
This is a permanent condition, of the most serious kind
Now let me tell you baby
That you were sent from up above
Give me a sign - let's not waste any more time
Cause what we got here is true love, yeh, yeh

I called the man at the video store and i said
Cancel my membership, i won't be needing it no more
Found something else to occupy my nights
And baby it's just the right
Amount of true love

I called the man at the video store and i said
Cancel my membership, i won't be needing it no more
Found something else to occupy my nights
And baby it's just the right
Amount of true love, true love - yeh

Everybody wants it, everybody needs true love
Don't get me wrong about the bad love
I gotta have good love
True love - yeah - true love - ohh
Ummm...
True love

Written by: n. giraldo & p. giraldo

Ooo, you're givin' me the fever tonight
I don't wanna give in
I'd be playin' with fire
You forget, i've seen you work before
Take `em straight to the top
Leave `em cryin' for more
I've seen you burn `em before
Chorus:

Fire and ice
You come on like a flame
Then you turn a cold shoulder
Fire and ice
I wanna give you my love
But you'll just take a little piece of my heart

You'll just tear it apart

Movin' in for the kill tonight
You got every advantage when they put out the lights
It's not so pretty when it fades away
Cause it's just an illusion in this passion play
I've seen you burn `em before

(chorus)

So you think you got it all figured out
You're an expert in the field, without a doubt
But i know your methods inside and out
And i won't be takin' in by fire and ice

(chorus)

You come on like a flame
Then you turn a cold shoulder
Fire and ice
I wanna give you my love
But you'll just take a little piece of my heart

You come on like a flame
Then you turn a cold shoulder
Fire and ice

You come on like a flame
Then you turn a cold shoulder
Fire and ice

Tell me why the stars do shine
Tell me why the ivy twines
Tell me why the sky's so blue
And then i'll tell you just why i love you
Because god made the stars to shine
Because god made the ivy twine
Because god made the sky's so blue
Because god made you, that's why i love you

Tell me why the stars do shine
Tell me why the ivy twines
Because god made the sky's so blue
Because god made you, that's why i love you

From the album "for our children"

I hear your heartbeat but you're never there
Like a mirage, you haunt me everywhere
All day long
I burn for you, lonely in the night
I tried to live alone, but i just can't get it right
Ya' know that, this town's like a painted desert
Dead heat, movin' in the city
I'm lost in a painted desert
In a painted desert without you

I've done some thinkin', now that you're not here
I know your reasons, and they're still not clear
All i'm sure of is what i got to lose
I tried to be a better loser, but it's just no use

Ya' know that this town's like a painted desert
Dead heat, movin' in the city
I'm lost in a painted desert
In a painted desert without you

Walkin' in the sundown, i search in vain
Waitin' on the wind that whispers out your name
Through concrete canyons echoing a world of other faces
No direction looks like home
Where is my oasis?

Ya' know that this town's like a painted desert
Dead heat, movin' in the city
I'm lost in a painted desert
In a painted desert without you
In a painted desert without you
Where is my oasis?

we're running with the shadows of the night
So baby take my hand, it'll be all right
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight
They'll come true in the end
You said - oh girl, it's a cold world
When you keep it all to yourself
I said you can't hide on the inside
All the pain you've ever felt
Ransom my heart, but baby don't look back
Cause we got nobody else

Chorus:

We're running with the shadows of the night
So baby take my hand, it'll be all right
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight
They'll come true in the end

You know that sometimes, it feels like
It's all moving way too fast

(repeat chorus three times)

Use every alibi and words you deny
That love ain't meant to last
You can cry tough baby, it's all right
You can let me down easy, but not tonight

We're running with the shadows of the night
So baby take my hand, you'll be all right
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight
They'll come true in the end

We're running with the shadows of the night
So baby take my hand, it'll be all right
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight
They'll come true in the end

And now the hands of time are standin' still
Midnight angel, won't you say you will

You gotta go with what you know, absolutely right
Well, i can tell you i feel lucky tonight
I gotta feelin' in my heart, two more for the fight
Hey, i can tell you i feel lucky tonight
Oh, i feel lucky
I feel lucky tonight
Well maybe just lucky enough
Til you win your love for me
I feel lucky
I feel good, yeh
Alright, huh, huh

You better get it while you can
Got to treat it nice
Well, let the good times roll, i feel lucky tonight
Midus in my touch, moonlight up my sleeve
Hey i'm your wild card baby, take a chance with me

Oh, i feel lucky
I feel lucky tonight
Well maybe just lucky enough
Til you win your love for me
I feel lucky
I feel good, yeh
Alright, huh, huh
I feel lucky , whoa

Miami, new york, chicago, st. louis, los angeles,
Austin, new orleans, detroit, cleaveland

----------------------------------- now
Take a look around
It's the only game in town, i feel lucky tonight
I ain't waitin' on love, no
I don't waste no time
Hey, i'm ---------- black cat across my path

Oh, i feel lucky
I feel lucky tonight
Well maybe just lucky enough
Til you win your love for me

Well maybe just lucky enough
Til you win your love for me

S-u-c-c-e-s-s
That's the way we spell success
Will we get it, the answers yes
S-u-c-c-e-s-s
Small town boy, so clean he squeaks
Dressed and polished for the big time dreams
Got a letter from his ma, and a boyish grin
Close his eyes one minute, and it'll lead him to the win, yeah

You know there's nothin' like heaven that won't get you back
To you get your ass in gear, and your mind on track
When wheels start turnin', things start to fall into place
You'll be suprised what you can do and some talents all it takes
Yeah

Chorus:

Sometimes the good guys finish first
Sometimes your best is all it takes
You know that, sometimes the good guys finish first
Sometimes the good guys, finish first

Back on logic, turn your head around
Use the front door and avoid the crowds
They'll be tryin' to tell you that it can't be done
Cause the big boys on their own gave us half the fun, hey hey

(repeat chorus twice)

The good guys, the good guys, the good guys, finish first

(chorus)

Sometimes the good guys finish first
Walkin' a straight line in reverse
You know that, sometimes the good guys finish first
Sometimes the good guys, finish first

I had it with the same old routine
I had it with the same old faces, places
Everynight, in my life
I started feeling washed up, washed out
Hung up, wrung out, left to dry out
Everynight
But i know
Yeah, i know you're out there, somewhere
Oh, i, i can almost hear you callin'
I'm looking for a stranger in the night
I need a little danger in my life, tonight

I'm tired of the same old -
Hello baby, how ya doun'? come here often?"
Where have you been all my life?"
Everynight

But i know
That someday, somewhere
I'll turn around and you'll be there
Ooo.., in my life
Everynight

But i know
Yeah, i know you're out there, somewhere
Oh, i, i can almost hear you callin'
I'm looking for a stranger in the night
I need a little danger in my life, tonight

You want me to leave, you want me to stay
You ask me to come back, you turn and walk away
You wanna be lovers, and you wanna be friends
I'm losing my patience, you're nearing the end
One of these days you're gonna reach out and find
The one that you count on has left you behind
Don't want to be no martyr, with no one, no say
Oh my, my baby, before it's too late

Treat me right
Treat me right
Open your eyes, maybe you'll see the light

Do you think i'm a fool, well you better think twice
I've had enough baby, it's time you realized
That you can't have it both ways, it's no way to live
You've done all the takin', it's your turn to give

One of these days you're gonna reach out and find
The one that you count on has left you behind
Don't want to be no martyr, with no one, no say
Oh my, my baby, before it's too late

Treat me right
Treat me right
Open your eye's, maybe you'll see the light
Ooh, ooh, treat me right

You want me to leave, you want me to stay
You ask me to come back, you're turnin' love away
You wanna be lovers, and you wanna be friends
I'm losing my patience, you're nearing the end

Treat me right
Treat me right
Open your eyes, maybe you'll see the light
Ooh, ooh, treat me right

Treat me right - treat me right
Treat me right - treat me right
Treat me right - treat me right
Treat me right - treat me right
Treat me right (fading out)

How am i supposed to make it through another day
What am i supposed to do now that you've gone away
Is there anything encouraging you can say to me
Did you really think my heart was made of stone
Maybe you never gave it any thought at all
How nice to go through live oblivious and free

Life is sweet, sweet as strawberry wine
And bitter too, like the seeds on the vine
And you are that, you are more than sublime
And bitter too, lovin' you, has been an experience

How am i supposed to ever feel the same
These kind of situations always have a way
Of screwing up your mind and messing with your sanity
How many days and nights will have to come and go
Before i realize what i already know
I'm better off without you like i thought i'd be

Life is sweet, sweet as strawberry wine
And bitter too, like the seeds on the vine
And you are that, you are more than sublime
And bitter too, lovin' you, has been an experience

(spoken) life is sweet

Life is sweet, sweet as strawberry wine
And bitter too, like the seeds on the vine
And you are that, you are more than sublime
And bitter too, lovin' you, has been an experience

Life is sweet, sweet as strawberry wine
And bitter too, like the seeds on the vine
And you are that, you are more than sublime
And bitter too, lovin' you, has been an experience

Just when we think we conquered it
It seems we lose the fight again
But there's just no stoppin' it
It's like a bad dream that never ends
It puts up walls between us
That get harder, and harder, and harder, and harder, and harder
To remove
But we let it continue, like people in love always do
Ooh - ooh
Ooh - ooh
Ooh - ooh

Lets not pretend that we're unique
Coz everybody's tasted loves illusion
We try to hide the fact that we
Got lost between the choas and confusion
And the love we feel
Is gettin' deeper, and deeper, and deeper, and deeper, and deeper
By the minute

But we let it slip away
Coz we don't know a good thing while we're in it

Ooh - ooh
Ooh - ooh
Ooh - ooh

"y el amor que sentimos es mas profundo"
"the love that we feel is deeper")

I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
I need a lover that won't drive me mad
I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone to thrill me, and then go away
I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone that knows the meaning of ah - hey hit the highway

Well i've been walking the streets in the evening
Racing through this human jungle at night
I'm so confused, my mind is indifferent
Hey - i'm so weak, won't someone shut out that light
Electricity runs thru the video
And i watch from this hole i call home
And all the stonies that are dancin' to the radio
I got the world calling me tonight on the phone

I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
I need a lover that won't drive me mad
I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone that knows the meaning of ah - hey hit the highway

Well i'm not wiped out by this poolroom life i'm livin'
But i'm gonna quit my job, and go to school, and head back home
Now i'm not asking to be loved or be forgiven
Hey - i just can't face shakin' in this bedroom one more night alone

I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
I need a lover that won't drive me mad
I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone that knows the meaning of ah - hey hit the highway

I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone to thrill me, and then go away
I need a lover that won't drive me crazy

I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
I need a lover that won't drive me mad
I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone that knows the meaning of ah - hey hit the highway

Our two worlds met in strange surprise
I hid my love in thin disguise
I tried to leave, how could i stay?
What if my heart gave me away?
I always thought i'd be prepared
But love just caught me unaware
You said the words and i believed
I fell so hard, i fell so deep

Love can't hide, though it tries
Hearts catch fire, so has mine
Here's my heart

So true love triumphs once again
It always makes it in the end
And if you let the heart run free
It will return faithfully

Love can't hide, though it tries
Hearts catch fire, all the time
Helpless love walks the line
Hearts catch fire, the hour is fine
Here's my heart

Ooh, ooh

Love can't hide, though it tries
Hearts catch fire, all the time
Helpless love walks the line
Hearts catch fire, so has mine

Here's my heart
Here's my heart
Here's my heart
Here's my heart

Ooh... hey, hey, hey

Music composed by: giorgio moroder
Lyrics by pete bellotte
Produced by neil geraldo, peter coleman, and giorgio moroder

Never again, isn't that what you said?
You've been through this before
An' you swore this time you'd think with your head
No one, would ever have you again
And if takin' was gonna get done
You'd decide where and when
Just when you think you got it down
Your heart securely tied and bound
They whisper, promises in the dark

Armed and ready, you fought love battles in the night
But too many opponents made you weary of the fight
Blinded by passion, you foolishly let someone in
All the warnings went off in your head
Still you had to give in

Just when you think you got it down
Resistance nowhere to be found
They whisper, promises in the dark

But promises, you know what they're for
It sounds so convincing, but you heard it before
Cause talk is cheap and you gotta be sure
And so you put up your guard
And you try to be hard
But your heart says try again

You desperately search for a way to conquer the fear
No line of attack has been planned to fight back the tears
Where brave and restless dreams are both won and lost
On the edge is where it seems it's well worth the cost
Just when you think you got it down
Your heart in pieces on the ground
They whisper, promises in the -- dark

Livin' with my eyes closed, goin' day to day
I never knew the difference, i never cared either way
Lookin' for a reason, searchin' for a sign
Reachin' out with both hands, i gotta feel the kick inside
All fired up
Now i believe there comes a time
All fired up
When everything just falls in line
All fired up
We live an' learn from our mistakes
All fired up, fired up, fired up - hey

Ain't nobody livin', in a perfect world
Everybody's out there, cryin' to be heard
Now i got a new fire, burnin' in my eyes
Lightin' up the darkness, movin' like a meteorite

Chorus:
All fired up
Now i believe there comes a time
All fired up
When everything just falls in line
All fired up
We live an' learn from our mistakes
All fired up, fired up, fired up
The deepest cuts are healed by faith
Now i believe there comes a time
When everything just falls in line
We live an' learn from our mistakes
The deepest cuts are healed by faith

Now i believe there comes a time
When everything just falls in line
We live an' learn from our mistakes
The deepest cuts are healed by faith
Now i believe there comes a time
When everything just falls in line
We live an' learn from our mistakes
The deepest cuts are healed by faith
Now i believe there comes a time
When everything just falls in line
We live an' learn from our mistakes
The deepest cuts are healed by faith
Now i believe

Once there was a man, and he lived to sing the lions song
As he traveled on road of hope
One love is the light, shining over every mountain top
It will lead us to the higher ground
One day every heart will beat strong against the night
Let it be done right now
Once there was a man, and his words became a song of love
And his song became the golden dream
One love is the light, shining over everyone that believes
It will lead us to the higher ground
One day every eye will see truth before the light
Let it be done right now

Some wait, so long
Because our love is strong
This hard road traveled on
Will lead us home, forever

Hear the lion's song, voices cryin' like a desert wind
Yeh he's gone unto his father's land
Afrika tonight, for we truly are one in our hearts
Colors woven in the golden dream

One day every eye will see truth before the light
Let it be done right now
One day every voice will speak strong against the night
Let us be one right now
So let it be

We are the children of a thousand days
We are the people of the hard rain
We are the children of a thousand days
We are the people of the hard rain
We are the people of the hard rain

Out on the wiley, windy moors, we'd roll and fall in green
You had a temper like my jealousy, too hot, too gready
How could you leave me, when i needed to possess you
I hated you, i loved you too
Bad dreams in the night
You told me i was going to lose the fight
Leave behind my

Wuthering, wuthering, wuthering heights
Heathcliff, it's me, i'm cathy, i've come home
I'm - so cold, let me in your window
Heathcliff, it's me, i'm cathy, i've come home
I'm - so cold, let me in your window

Ooh, it gets dark, it gets lonely
On the other side from you
I pine a lot, i find the lot falls through without you
I'm coming back love, cruel heathcliff
My one dream, my only master

Too long i roam in the night
I'm coming back to his side to put it right
I'm coming home to

Wuthering, wuthering, wuthering heights
Heathcliff, it's me, i'm cathy, i've come home
I'm - so cold, let me in your window
Heathcliff, it's me, i'm cathy, i've come home
I'm - so cold, let me in your window

Ooh, let me have it, let me grab your soul away
Ooh, let me have it, let me grab your soul away
You know it's me, cathy

Heathcliff, it's me, i'm cathy, i've come home
I'm - so cold, let me in your window
Heathcliff, it's me, i'm cathy, i've come home
I'm - so cold, let me in your window

I hear you had a good offer down on third avenue
You tell me that was the reason
For whatcha' put me through, yeah
And now you come collapsin' back
I feel the heat of your attack
Want me to take you back
I'm givin' you the sack
So don't waste your time

Chorus:

It's a little too little
It's a little too late
I'm a little too hurt
And there's nothin' left that i've gotta say
You can cry to me baby
But there's only so much i can take
Ah, it's a little too little
It's a little too late

You say you had a good time
But did ya' think it was for free - yeah
And how much did it get ya', all their flattery
And now you come back, runnin' for protection
You've been bitten by love and stung by rejection
You can't connect
What did you expect?
I'm still gettin' over you

(repeat chorus four times)

It's always one thing or another, seems like we never get ahead
Reaching out for the brass ring, and landing in the dirt instead
We can't get past yesterday, we're only counting down from ten
It seems like every move we make, brings us back where we began
You've gotta run between the raindrops
If you wanna see the sun
Run, run, run, between the raindrops
Run between the raindrops, if you wanna see the sun
Run, run, run, - run baby run

Somewhere there's a sun that's shining
Somewhere we'll find a life that's good
Some way i'm gonna make it happen
Just like you always knew i could

We're treading water on a river of tears
And i don't know what to do
I can take a beating, but i ain't gonna let it happen to you, you

You've gotta run between the raindrops
If you wanna see the sun
Run, run, run, between the raindrops
Run between the raindrops, if you wanna see the sun
You gotta run, run, run, - run baby run

We're treading water on a river of tears
And i don't know what to do

You've gotta run between the raindrops
If you wanna see the sun
Run, run, run, between the raindrops
Run between the raindrops, if you wanna see the sun
Run, run, run, - run baby run

Run between the raindrops, if you wanna see the sun
You gotta run, run, run, - run baby run

You gotta run, run, run, - run baby run

Did you see me last night
I was there in the dark
I saw her look at you, the way i used to
When i still had your heart.

I watched you take her hand
There was love in your eyes
I remember when you looked at me that way too
Before we said good-bye

I don't want to be your friend
I just want to be your lover
I don't think i can pretend
That you mean nothing to me

It's hard enough to say good-bye
Even when you know it's over
I don't want to be your friend
I want to be your lover and when i think i've had enough
And i just can't stand the pain
I reminisce about the way it felt
To have you every day
You know that every time i hear your voice
I still get a thrill
And there's nothing i can do about it

Am i gone from your thoughts, forgotten somehow
When you be there with her
Does my memory stir, any part of you now
I know that i should concede, face the truth and all that
I know i should realize i'm not a part of your life anymore,
But i can't

I don't want to be your friend
I just want to be your lover
I don't think i can pretend
That you mean nothing to me

It's hard enough to say good-bye
Even when you know it's over
I don't want to be your friend
I want to be your lover

I don't want to argue about who is the victim
Cause maybe we both got burned
I don't want to talk about who is the traitor
Cause both of our loyalties turned
I don't want to fight about who is the liar
Cause there's too many ways to lie
I don't want to hear about who is the winner
Cause we both know it's a tie
Cut it out, drop it, count me out - baby stop it
Life is too short, so why waste precious time
Life is too short, so why waste precious time

You were on a liquid diet, you were sure you had to try it
And you lost all your pounds
The doctor's on vacation, so you took the medication
And wound up in lost and found
So we took a trip to paris
Cause you swore that it would scare us out of our swift decline
All that i remember `bout those days in that september
Is the "merci" and the wine

Cut it out, drop it, count me out - baby stop it
Life is too short, so why waste precious time
Life is too short, so why waste
Precious time, precious time, precious time
Oh, precious time
Life is too short, so why waste precious time

You talk on the telephone, long distance to new york or rome
Some would say you got it made
Your home is like a fortress, no one comes in but the florist
The gardner, and the maid
You call me on the telephone, you say you feel so alone
Too tired to get dressed and get out
First you're happy, then you're sad
Somehow you always hang up mad
Excuse me if i shout

Cut it out, drop it, count me out - baby stop it
Life is too short, so why waste precious time
Life is too short, so why waste precious time
Life is too short, so why waste precious time
Precious time, precious time, oh precious time
Life is too short, so why waste precious time
