| 1. | Mirror Man |
Mirror Man The water shines A pebble skips across the face A dozentime Then disappears Not a trace left behind The thrower turns and walks away A change of mind Another start A brand new day You know IÕll change If change is what you require Your every wish Your every dream Hope, desire Here comes the mirror man Says heÕs a people fan Here comes the mirror man And if it seems IÕm not the one you usedto know Our little friendship Left behind not long ago DonÕt feel too hurt As distance heals the strongest pain Things are much better now And just a nagging doubt remains You know IÕll change If change iswhat you require Your every wish Your every dream Hope, desire |
| 2. | (Keep Feeling) Fascination |
(Keep Feeling) Fascination If it seems a little time is needed Decisions to be made The good advice of friends unheeded The best of plansmislaid Just looking for a new direction In an old familiar way The forming of a new connection To study or to play And so the conversation turned Until the sun went down And many fantasies were learned On that day Keep feeling fascination Passion burning Love so strong Keep feeling fascination Looking learning Moving on Well the truth may need some Re-arranging Stories to be told And plain to see the facts are changing No meaning left to hold And so the conversation turned Until the sun went down And many fantasies were learned On thatday And so the conversation turned Until the sun went down And many fantasies were learned On that day |
| 3. | The Sound Of The Crowd |
The Sound Of The Crowd (Oakey/Burden) Put your hand in a party wave Pass around Make a shroud pulling combs through a backwash frame Find the copies in a carbon mount Pass around Stroke a pocket with a print of a laughing sound Get around town, get around town Where the people look good Where the music is loud Get around town No need to stand proud Add your voice to the sound of the crowd The shades from a pencil peer Pass around A fold in an eyelid brushed with fear The lines on a compact guide Pass around A hat with alignment worn insde Chorus : Get in line now, get in line now Stay in time with the rhythm and rhyme Get around town, get around town Where the people look good Where the music is loud Get around town No need to stand proud Addyour voice to the sound of the crowd (Repeat chorus twice more) @SONG: Darkness (Wright) Chorus : In darkness Where my dreams are all too clear Darkness, darkness Filled with all the sounds of fear Ihear voices (don't turn out the light) Calling faraway I see shadows (don't turn out the light) Moving, changing shape And the clock stops As darkness closes in I hesitate but it's too late I scream and scream again I hear colours black and red I see sounds that fill my head I'll never read those books again (Chorus) Don't turn out the light (don't turn out the light) Or I'll go over the edge Don't turn out the light (don't turn out the light) Or I'll go over the edge (Chorus) I hear voices (don't turn out the light) Calling faraway I seeshadows (don't turn out the light) Moving, changing shape |
| 4. | The Lebanon |
The Lebanon (Callis/Oakey) She dreams of nineteen sixty-nine Before the soldiers came The life was cheap on bread and wine And sharing meant no shame She is awakened by the screams Of rockets flying from nearby And scared she clings onto her dreams To beat the fear that she might die And who will have won When the soldiers have gone From theLebanon The Lebanon Before he leaves the camp he stops He scans the world outside And where there used to be some shops Is where the snipers sometimes hide He left his home the week before He thought he'd be like the police But now he finds he is at war "Weren't we supposed to keep the peace" And who will have won When the soldiers have gone From the Lebanon The Lebanon The Lebanon From the Lebanon I must be dreaming It canÕt be true I must be dreaming It can't be true And who will have won When the soldiers have gone? From the Lebanon The Lebanon The Lebanon From the Lebanon |

| 6. | Don't You Want Me |
Don't You Want Me You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar When I met you I picked you out, I shook you up, and turned you around Turned you into someone new Now five years later on you've got the world at your feet Success has been so easy for you But don't forget it'sme who put you where you are now And I can put you back down too Chorus : Don't, don't you want me? You know I can't believe it when I hear that you won't see me Don't, don't you want me? You know I don't believe you when you say that you don't need me It's much too late to find You think you've changed your mind You'd better change it back or we will both be sorry Don't you want me baby? Don't you want me oh Don't you want me baby? Don't you want me oh I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar That much is true But even then I knew I'd find amuch better place Either with or without you The five years we have had have been such good times I still love you But now I think it's time I lived my life on my own I guess it's just what I must do (Chorus) Don't you want me baby? Don't you want me oh Don't you want me baby? Don't you want me oh (Repeat four times and fade) |
| 7. | Being Boiled |
Being Boiled Listen to the voice of Buddha Saying stop your sericulture Little people like your offspring Boiled alive for some gods stocking Buddha's watching, Buddha's waiting Just because the kid's an orphan Is no excuse for thoughtless slaying People don't forget this torture Just because you call her mother Doesn't mean that she's your better Once more with the voice of Buddha He'll say carry on your slaughter Who cares for the little children You may slice with no conviction Blind revenge on a blameless victim Listen to the voice of Buddha Saying stop your sericulture He'll say carry on your slaughter Who cares for the little children You may slice with no conviction Blind revenge on a blameless victim Listen to the voice of Buddha (repeat three times) |
| 8. | Love Action (I Believe In Lve) |
Love Action (I Believe In Love) When you're in love You know you'rein love No matter what you try to do You might as well resign yourself To what you're going through If you're a hard man or if you're a child It still might get to you Don't kid yourself you've seen it all before A million mouths have said that too I've had my hard times (hardtimes) in the past I've been a husband and a lover too I've lain alone and cried at night Over what love made me do And the loved ones who let me down And couldn't share my point of view But this is Phil talking I want to tell you What I've found to be true Chorus : I loveyour love action Lust's just a distraction No talking, just looking Watching your love action I believe, I believe what the old man said Though I know that there's no lord above I believe in me, I believe inyou And you know I believe in love I believe in truth though I lie a lot I feel the pain from the push and shove No matter what you put me through I'll still believe in love And I say (Repeat chorus three times and fade) |
| 9. | Louise |
Louise (Callis/Oakey/Wright) When he saw her getting of the bus Itseemed to wipe away the years Her face was older, just a little rough But her eyes were still so clear He drank his coffee and he hurried out Across before she walked away Then he approached her like a little child Too scared for what he had to say "Hello, Louise, Remember me? Now should we part Or stay awhile? As if we were still lovers" She took a moment just to recognise The man sheÕd known so well before And as he started to apologise Lose any bitterness she bore She gentlyput her finger on his lips To let him know she understood And with her suit case standing on the floor Embraced him like a lover would Hetold Louise "You look so good ItÕs just you see You make me feel Asif we were still lovers" [Spoken:] It's not always true that time heals all wounds. There are wounds that you don't wanna heal, the memories of something really good, something truly real, that you never found again. And though they talked for just a little time Before she said she had to go He saw the meeting as a tiny sign That told him all he had to know And so Louise Waved from the bus And as she left She gave that smile As if they were still lovers |
| 10. | Open Your Heart |
Open Your Heart And when it hurts you know they love to tell you How they warned you They say "Don't be surprised at someone's lies" Theythink they taunt you But if you can stand the test You know your worst is better than their best And so you stand here with the years ahead Potentially calling With open heart or with a spirit dead You walk on Chorus : Lies the reason Faith or treason Playing a part Endconcealing Try revealing Open your heart Dare to feel Take the chance Make the deal Being an island Shying from trying Seems the easyway Such an easy way But there's no future without tears (Chorus) But if you can stand the test You know your worst is better than their best (Chorus) Lies the reason Faith or treason Playing a part End concealing Try revealing Open your heart (Repeat last sectionthree times and fade) |
