Тексты песен:
20th Century Blues
Twentieth century blues are getting me down
Blues, escape those dreary twentieth century blues
Why, if there's a god in the sky, why shouldn't he grin
High above this dreary twentieth century din
In this strange illusion, chaos and confusion
People seem to lose their way
What is there to strive for, love or keep alive for
Say, Hey hey, call it a day
Blues, nothing to win or to lose, it's getting me down
Blues, escape those weary twentieth century blues
Why is it that civilized humanity can make this world so wrong
In this hurly-burly of insanity, our dreams cannot last long
We've reached a deadline, a press headline, every sorrow
Blues value is news value tomorrow
A Dandelion Dies in the Wind
See my eyes and I see my arms
The seagulls say you've gone
It was just a game of let's pretend
And I whistle to the waves that lend me tears
Purple clouds, golden rain
Yesterday has gone
And a dandelion dies in the wind
If you're quick enough to rise
With the sleep still in your eyes
You'll see the shadow of the sun above my mind
I know that only you can help me now
Purple clouds, golden rain
Yesterday has gone
And a dandelion dies in the wind
But a dandelion sighs
And it tries to tell the wind
That crying's not a bad thing
Worrying is a sin
If they sent a cloud from heaven
I would ride into the skies
To escape all of my troubles
And to cast away your lies
Purple rains have turn to gold
The clouds of yesterday
And a dandelion dies in the wind
I see my eyes and I see my arms
The seagulls say you've gone
It was just a game of let's pretend
And I whistle to the waves that lend me tears
Purple clouds, golden rain
Yesterday has gone
And a dandelion dies in the wind
A Dream Come True
I can hear your heart
Pounding in my ear
Now I feel the sound
And the time is near
I feel the taste
Of all the things you do
Now the time has come
I know you're a dream come true
You make me so complete
With the things you do
And the music's sweet
You make me feel brand new
I hear the sound
Songs start coming through
Somehow I know
That you're a dream come true
It takes my breath
When it sounds that way
Seems like you
Chase the clouds away
And I feel so good
Each and every day
And life is good
Each and every way
Now I feel the beat
Of the dancing drums
And now I know we're
Gonna have some fun
Now the time stands still
And the blues are through
And now I know
What I'm gonna do
Now I feel the beat
Of the dancing drums
And now I know we're
Gonna have some fun
Now the time stands still
And all the blues are through
Now I know
What I'm gonna do
It takes my breath
When it sounds that way
Seems like you
Chase the clouds away
And I feel so good
Each and every day
And life is good
Each and every way
A Simple Man
I'm a simple man with a simple dream
In a far from simple time
And I paid the price of the road I chose
But at least the choice was mine
And the times I get the feeling
That the journey's end is near
But I prefer to die with my head held high
Than to live my life in fear
I'm a simple man from a time gone by
Growing cold and old alone
There's a time to run and a time to hide
And a time to head for home
To forgive and be forgiven
If it's the last thing I can do
Then in death's release I may find the peace
That in life I never knew
'Cause I'm a simple man with a simple dream
A Step Too Far
It's so strange he doesn't show me more affection than he needs
Almost formal, too respectful, never takes romantic leads
There are times when I imagine I'm not always on his mind
He's not thinking what I'm thinking, always half a beat behind
Always half a beat behind
I'm in every kind of trouble, can't you tell, just look at me
Half ecstatic, half dejected, all in all I'm all at sea
Easy turns I thought I wanted, fill me now with chilling dread
You can never know the chaos, of a life turned on it's head
Of a life turned on it's head
Take a little time to panic, shake off your complacent state
I know all I ever wished to, of a life destroyed by fate
It's so strange you never notice anything but where you are
Step outside your gleaming prison, or is that a step too far
Or is that a step too far
A Woman's Needs
[Tammy]
Where have you been are you still on my side
Is that love or regret that I see in your eyes
How many years have we played out this game
Every time we come close the answer's always the same
[Elton]
I guess some souls get restless under the skin
There's a shortage by half of marrying men
You know that I love you but I love to be free
So tell me what do you want, yeah from a gypsy like me
[Tammy]
I need a ring on my finger, champagne on ice
One man to show me the best part of life
[Elton]
Is that what you want
[Tammy]
Yeah, that's what I need
[Together]
A home and a family makes sense for us
[Tammy]
A solid foundation built out of trust
[Elton]
Do you think you can find that with someone like me?
[Tammy]
Two arms to hold you, one place to be
Are just some of the things that a woman needs
I've been shortchanged and cheated so many times
But you're all that I've wanted For all of my life
[Elton]
I've searched for the reasons, known how I've felt
But what can I give you when I can't trust myself
[Tammy]
I need a ring on my finger, champagne on ice
One man to show me the best part of life
[Elton]
Is that what you want
[Tammy]
Yeah, that's what I need
[Together]
A home and a family makes sense for us
[Tammy]
A solid foundation built out of trust
[Elton]
Do you think you can find that with someone like me?
[Tammy]
Two arms to hold you, one place to be
Are just some of the things that a woman needs
[Together]
Two arms to hold you, one place to be
Are just some of the things that a woman needs X3
A Word in Spanish
I don't know why
I just know I do
I just can't explain
In this language that I use
Something leaves me speechless
Each time that you approach
Each time you glide right through me
As if I was a ghost
If I only could tell you
If you only would listen
I've got a line or two to use on you
I've got a romance we could christen
And there's a word in Spanish I don't understand
But I heard it in a film one time spoken by the leading man
He said it with devotion, he sounded so sincere
And the words he spoke in Spanish brought the female lead to tears
A word in Spanish, a word in Spanish
If you can't comprehend
Read it in my eyes
If you don't understand it's love
In a thin disguise
And what it takes to move you
Each time that you resist
Is more than just a pretty face
To prove that I exist
If I only could tell you
If you only would listen
I've got a line or two to use on you
I've got a romance we could christen
And there's a word in Spanish I don't understand
But I heard it in a film one time spoken by the leading man
He said it with devotion, he sounded so sincere
And the words he spoke in Spanish brought the female lead to tears
A word in Spanish, a word in Spanish
When manners make no difference
And my gifts all lay undone
I trade my accent in on chance
And fall back on a foreign tongue
And there's a word in Spanish I don't understand
But I heard it in a film one time spoken by the leading man
He said it with devotion, he sounded so sincere
And the words he spoke in Spanish brought the female lead to tears
A word in Spanish (ooh ooh), a word in Spanish
There's a word in Spanish (ooh ooh),
A word in Spanish
Abide With Me
Abide with me, fast falls the eventide
The darkness deepens, Lord abide with me
When other helpers fail and comforts flee
Help of the helpless, O abide with me
I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless
Ills have no weight and tears no bitterness
Where is death's sting, where, grave, that victory
I triumph still if Thou abide with me
Hold Thou thy cross before my closen eyes
Shine throught the gloom and point me to the skies
Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee
In life, in death, O Lord abide with me
In life, in death, O Lord abide with me
Across the River Thames
Good taste at times I've sometimes lacked
I won't deny the truth
I got dressed up as Donald Duck
Making up for my repressed youth
Disco balls and spandex pants
On questionable friends
Disco died but the fog still rolled across the River Thames
Snarling they just came along
And cut us to the quick
Called us a bunch of dinosaurs
And give us a load of stick
Told us that the times was changing
And all good things must end
But I'm still here and the fog still rolls across the River Thames
Nelson's on his column
Ravens are in the Tower
Big Ben's never lost his voice
Chimes on every hour
And the fog still rolls off the River Thames
The forecast calls for a little rain
London Bridge ain't falling down
And some things never change
The black-faced boys were holding tight
And Thatcher's in a noose
Hair got teased beyond belief
In the age of the golden goose
The new romantics claimed the throne
And we were wondering when
But they lost their crown and the fog still rolled across the River Thames
Big bold letters screaming out
A scandal in the house
Dogs without their vocal chords
And careers going south
What the eye can't see the eye invents
The truth was meant to bend
But nothing changed and the fog still rolled across the River Thames
Act of War
This ain't no battle honey, this ain't no fight
How come you take it so hard when I stay out all night
If I take a drink, is that against the law
And if I have a good time, do you call that an act of war
Well you better believe it boy, this house is your home
I didn't build it up for you to live here on my own
And if you think it's easy to forget about me
You'd better think twice, you'd better believe it's an act of war
We're living on the front line you and me
Fighting on this battleground of misery
Oh go ahead bring on your artillery
And we'll make this an act of war
Give it all you've got `cause I'm all dug in
Keep the punches coming I can take them on the chin
Winner takes all, let the best man win
And we call it an act of war
Well I'm a man of convenience I work a long hard day
After twelve long hours ain't I got the right to play
If living together is getting in the way
Then I call that an act of war
Well if that's your game then honey two can play
I'm going on the town tonight and have some fun my way
Ain't no way baby this girl's gonna stay
I call it, I call it an act of war
And it looks like time ain't been on our side
If we could turn the clock back
We might survive this act of war
