I can't keep up with what's been going down
I think my heart must just be slowing down Among the human beings In their designer jeans Am I the only one who hears the screams And the strangled cries of lawyers in love God sends his spaceships to America the beautiful They land at six o'clock and there we are, the dutiful Eating from TV trays Tuned into Happy Days Waiting for World War III while Jesus slaves To the mating calls of lawyers in love Last night I watched the news from Washington, the capital The Russians escaped while we weren't watching them, like Russians will Now we've got all this room We've even got the moon And I hear the USSR will be open soon As vacation land for lawyers in love Lawyers in love Lawyers in love |

You really need someone on your side
But you run away and hide Whenever somebody's going to get through You've got this wall in front of you You put your arm around me and smile But you're thinking all the while Yeah, your friends only go so far However close friends think they are On the day On the day you fall in love Gonna pray You're gonna pray that your love is enough You've had the world in the palm of your hand Since you turned from child to man No one can tell you a thing you don't know You see your life as a one man show But you're not whole There are things you don't control You're going to know what I'm talking about On the day love finds you out On the day On the day you fall in love Gonna pray You better pray-- It's your life, you try to know Which way the answers lie, which way to go 'Cause you survive, don't mean you grow Open your eyes, look out below Look out-- On the day On the day you fall in love Gonna pray You better pray On the day On the day you fall in love Gonna pray You better pray |

Cut it away
Somebody cut away this desperate heart Cut it away And help me find my way back to the start Yeah, before I knew what I was looking for Yeah, when we were lovers and nothing more I wanted you And I did everything that I could do To capture you I let you see The part of me You'd want to see A fantasy I'm finding now I don't know how To make it good I wish I could Cut it away This crazy longing for something more Cut it away The question I don't have an answer for Why I hunger For something I can't see Cut it away The dream I wanted life to be I know I've got to let you go I know You should have left a long time ago Protected by the night Two cities lay Two hearts, two lives Connected by our sight Worlds away Two hearts, two lives Inspected by the light Two hearts, two cities in decay Two lives Repair them as we might Two hearts Just go on crumbling Now come on Cut it away I want to cut away this thing inside Cut it away This thing that hid from you and schemed and lied I know I've got to let you go I know You should have left a long time ago Cut it away Somebody cut away this desperate heart Cut it away Before it tears my whole life apart I love you I love you still I do I always will |

Downtown people gotta work a little harder working downtown
Downtown they got to think a little quicker 'cause they're downtown Downtown the breaks are harder Downtown the thieves are smarter I've got this place I'm renting It cost me next to nothing downtown Nobody comes around telling me I gotta turn the sound down Broadway -- down on the corner The bible screamer, the plasma donor Buses, carhorns, ghetto blasters The shouts and cries of the human disasters It's all music It's all music Downtown It's all music It's all music I feel alright when I'm downtown My feet are light when I'm downtown I cast my hopes on the human tide I place my bet and let it ride I'm open wide when I'm downtown Downtown there's every kind of people walkin' round downtown Downtown there's every language, every human sound downtown Downtown the nights are longer Downtown the sights are stronger Downtown wandering all around downtown It's all music Eight blocks south of city hall The rats run free and the winos crawl Darkness falls on the vast machine Where the future stalks the American dream I feel alright when I'm downtown My head feels light when I'm downtown It's all in sight when I'm downtown I feel alright when I'm downtown |

Between the darkness on the street
And the houses filling up with light Between the stillness in my heart And the roar of the approaching night Somebody's calling after somebody Somebody turns the corner out of sight Looking for somebody Somewhere in the night Tender is the night When you hold your baby tight Tender are the motions, tender is the night Between a life that we expected And the way it's always been I can't walk back in again After the way we fight When just outside there are people laughing Living lives we used to lead Chasing down the love they need Somewhere in the night Tender is the night And the benediction of the neon light Tender are the hunters, tender is the night You're gonna want me tonight When you're ready to surrender Forget about who's right When you're ready to remember It's another world at night When you're ready to be tender Tender, tender tender... And in the hard light of an angry sun No one remembers what was said or done Tender are the words they choose You win, I win, we lose Tender Tender is the night Tender The benediction of the neon light Tender Tender are the hunters Tender is the night When they hold each other tight Tender Tender are the undercover Tender The stranger and the secret lover Tender Tender are the motions Tender is the night When you hold your baby tight Tender, tender tender... |

In the still of the night
Lying in the darkness I listen to my heart Say it isn't true In the dark and the quiet The movements of our love And the breathing of our children Say it isn't true In the streets and the buildings People in their lives And the jobs they do for livings Say it isn't true And when you think of all the people In the cities of our worlds Who could vanish in a moment Say it isn't true Say it isn't true That there always has been and always will be war Say it isn't true And apart from all the finer things that men have struggled for Say it isn't true There always has been and always will be war Say it isn't true I'm alive in the city In a country of the world And I wanna go on living I wanna see my life unfold You know it's hard to go on looking At the stories of our days And the dangers we are facing Growing worse in every way And you would think with all of the genius And the brilliance of our times We might find a higher purpose And a better use of mind Say it isn't true That there always has been and always will be war Say it isn't true And apart from all the finer things that men have struggled for Say it isn't true There always has been and always will be war |
