ROCK AND ROLL HEART

Who do I love and
What makes that true

Who do I speak to
When I speak to you
Are you my lover or
Are you my friend
Trust your own perception
It's a loaded question

You've given me love
Give me a reason to be your friend
I am a woman
I could've done better as a man
Ah look at me now
Too many one love stands
They come to play
On my rock and roll heart
They come to play
On my rock and roll heart
Ooh - rock and roll heart
Ooh ooh - rock and roll heart

I'm shrouded in mystery-
And I'm covered in light
Standing like stone
Even though we're together
I'll always be alone
And caught in these lines
That catch the tears on my face
Aging with grace
In my rock and roll heart
Aging with grace
In my rock and roll heart
Ooh - rock and roll heart
Ooh ooh - rock and roll heart

You take your children to school
And you go down the grocery store
You pass as a grown up
In this left brain grown up world
And if they ask you for proof
They're gonna find out right away
You just came to play
With your rock and roll heart
You're just here to play
With your rock and roll heart
Ooh - rock and roll heart
Ooh ooh - rock and roll heart

Well I'm taking the stage
Reflecting the light
Inventing the role
My body's dancing out
A storm in my soul
And there is no rest
But I can't put it on hold
Cause time's just a beat
In my rock and roll heart
Time's just a - uh -
In my rock and roll heart
Time's just a - uh -
In my rock and roll heart
Ooh - rock and roll heart
Ooh ooh - rock and roll heart


TO BE A STAR

To be a star you've got to shine
To be the light in someone's heart
You gotta be bigger than you are
Gotta be bigger than you are

If you can't reach what you can see
When dreams are your reality
It's time to be bigger than you are
Time to be bigger than you are

Are you ready for the sudden awakening
Are you ready for the total recall
Are you ready for the truth when it's told and
How do you know that it's the truth at all
Sometimes that truth isn't honest
Sometimes it cuts like a knife
Some days take more than all day and
Some lives take more than one life

To be a star you've got to shine
To be the light in someone's heart
You gotta be bigger than you are
Gotta be bigger than you are

If a smile would break on every face
At once our planet human race
Would learn how to find the path with heart
We could be bigger than we are, bigger than we are

Are you ready for the rock and roll ending
Are you ready for the rigamarole
Are you ready when you gave it all and you'll
Be damned if you know where you're gonna get
Some more

Are you ready, are you ready
Ready to be bigger, are you ready,
Ready to be bigger

To be a star you've got to shine
To be the light in someone's heart
You gotta be bigger than you are
Gotta be bigger than you are


ANOTHER LIE

I almost forgot your number
When I saw you passing by
But then it wasn't you at all
It was some other guy

I wake up with you in my dreams
Before I see the light
Someone else is by my side
I tell another lie

Everyday is a heartache when I tell another lie
Everyday is a heartache when I tell another lie

It's an unhealthy obsession
Unadult and plebeian
I read all those books on letting go
But there you are again

I threw stones at your reflection
Though the waters all look calm
The rings have just reached China now
And I am still alone

Everyday is a heartache when I tell another lie
Everyday is a heartache when I tell another lie
I tell another lie (I tell another lie)
Oh it's just another lie (I tell another lie)

Someday I will find other inspiration
But for now this theme of missed connections
Is my stepping stone
Mostly I lead a normal life with one affliction
One small part of every day, I break down

Oh baby, everyday, everyday, everyday
I tell another lie (I tell another lie)
Oh, it's just another lie (I tell another lie)
Yeah, I tell another lie (I tell another lie)
Everyday, everyday


CYCLONE

We wait for the day to burn into night
And then I wait for dawn,
And I open my eyes when it gets bright
And I know I must be home.
I know I must be home,
God I'm coming home,

Hold tight cyclone
Found love in the music
But lost it in the overtones.
Sweat on the brow, blood on the lips
Love for the money, and gold at the fingertips,
At the fingertips.

Hold tight cyclone
Don't need no religion to look for the Kingdom Come
Gotta feel for the ground, reach for the sky,
Leap off the edge to see if you fall or fly
If you fall or fly.

Hold tight cyclone
A fool to continue but love keeps me holding on.
And it feels good real slow.
I love you to hurt me
But pain makes me let you go,
It makes me let you go.

Lost in the overtones - cyclone
Lost in the overtones - cyclone
Lost, lost, lost...

Ooh hold tight!


ROADBURN

I never been to Cleveland when
The sun was shining
Even when it shines it looks like rain
Well I'm passing through and
I'm roadburned again

Well people say that I've adjusted well
To travelling
Still I'm feeling homesick now and then
You know I'm passing through
And I'm on the move
And I'm roadburned, roadburned again

And you know I sure hope
It's just this plane ride that will bring me down
That will bring me down
And you know I sure hope
It's just this one more plane ride
Before I'm home, oh I wanna go home

If you touch the ground in Bokomah, Oklahoma
You never kill yourself so I've been told
Oh magic places are consolations for roadburn,
Roadburned again
And I know I sure hope
It's just this plane ride that will bring me down
That will bring me down
And you know I sure hope
It's just this one more plane ride
Before I'm home, I wanna go home

I never been to Cleveland when
The sun was shining
Even when it shines it looks like rain
Well I'm passing through and I'm on the move
And I'm roadburned, roadburned again
I've got this groove and I'm on the move
And I'm roadburned, roadburned again
I'm cuttin' tracks and I won't come back
Cause I'm roadburned, roadburned again


ON THE LAMB FROM THE LAW

I'm on the lamb from the law boy
On the lamb from the law
I never pick up no certified mail
You never know what it's for
If anybody asks you
Tell them I'm not home
I'm gonna take my number
Off this bugged telephone
You see I never did,
I never knew, I never saw
On the lamb from the law

I'm on the lamb from the law boy
On the lamb from the law
As if death wasn't enough boy
They never leave you alone
If anybody asks
You don't know where I am
I don't know how I got myself
Into this terrible jam
You see I never did
I never knew, I never saw
On the lamb from the law

No dirty words in my song
I drive with my seat belt on
Got sued and lost what a scam
See you in court
Get in line what a jam
I'm on the lamb from the law boy
On the lamb from the law

I never pick up no certified mail
You never know what it's for
If anybody asks you tell them
You don't know where I am
I don't know how I got myself
Into this terrible jam
I never did, I never knew, I never saw
I'm on the lamb from the law


WONDERER

I prick myself with a pin
And all at once
I think of you
The way you kill me mostly
Ooh when you hold me closely
Is it a spell I am under
I can't help but wonder

Language fails I lose my head
Tripped again I fall and stumble
Planets spin and mountains rumble
Is it my heart or the drummer
I can't help but wonder

The way you kill me mostly
In the middle of the night
The way you hurt me sweetly
Little death I'm alive
Is it the reign of the thunder
Oh oh oh o
Or is it a spell I am under
I can't help but wonder

Language fails I lose my head
In a word you're my obsession
Changing everyday perception
Do I hear the bells like thunder
I can't help but wonder

The way you kill me mostly
In the middle of the night
Is it the way you move me
Little death I'm alive
Is it the reign of the thunder
Oh oh oh o
Is it a spell I am under
I can't help but wonder


SHOW YOU

Cold days since you're gone
Make a move to give him up and go on
Feel the message in the chill of my bones
Let him go from you
'Cause it only goes to show you
Love only goes to show you, love only goes,
It only goes to show you

Still here, still alive
Lost it all
And showed the poor survive
I had money and I watched it slide
There go my friends too

But they only go to show you
They only go
They only go
They only go to show you
They only go
Love only knows
It only goes to show you

I've been born at least twice
Maybe more but I lose track of time
Let it go and then when life quits buyin'
Let it go too

Cause it only goes
It only goes to show you
It only goes
Love only knows
It only goes to show you
It only goes
Love only knows
It only goes to show you
Ooh ooh - show you


IT'S A FINE WORLD

Baby it's a fine world, and I know
We'll make it alright
But if I lose this confidence
Gonna take me out dancing all night
And we'll put on a show for the crowd
And we'll go home spent with laugh
From dancing our hearts out loud
Yeah, it's a fine fine world

Baby I've known heartaches and took part
In a miserable past
So if I'm prone to anxiety, please don't let 'em last
Come on and take me into the crowd
And we'll go home spent with laugh
From talking our hearts out loud
It's a fine fine world
Baby it's a fine world
Gonna make it mine, gonna make it fine,
Baby it's a fine world
Gonna make it mine, gonna make it fine,
Together
Baby it's a fine fine world
Baby it's a fine fine world

With a heart full of misemotion
Even a good thing can turn out all wrong
There's a world out there waiting for me to sing
And all I need is one good song
Oh, baby it's a fine fine world
Baby it's a fine world
Baby it's a fine world
Gonna make it mine, gonna make it fine,

Baby it's a fine world
But it isn't always fair
There'll always be a game for us
As long as you're still there
We're gonna step on into the fire
And we'll rise and fall in spite of
Crying our hearts out loud
It's a fine fine world
Oh, baby it's a fine fine world
Baby it's a fine world
Gonna make it mine, going to make it mine,
Together

Dancing our hearts out loud
Crying our hearts out loud
Baby it's a fine fine world


WINDOW PANE

Oh there they are again
Naked and laughing on the window pane
Did they ever see us when
We were together
Laughing much harder
Loving forever
Happily ever after...

We danced to kitaro songs
We were like lovers
In a foreign film
We were invisible
Till we breathed and then we went
Under the covers
Sweet sleeping lovers
Dreaming forever
Happily ever after the end
Happily ever after the end

The moments frozen like December rain
Naked and laughing on the window pane
Careless to witness as the sun shined in
We were loving like madmen
Sweat out of season
What ever happened
Happily ever after
Happily ever after the end
Happily ever after

Oh there they are again
Naked and laughing on the window pane
Oh there they go
Oh there they are again
Naked and laughing on the window pane
