Looking out a dirty old window.
Down below the cars in the city go rushing by. I sit here alone and I wonder why. Friday night and everyone's moving. I can feel the heat but it's soothing. Heading down, I search for the beat in this dirty town. Down town the young ones are going. Down town the young ones are growing. We're the kids in America. We're the kids in America. Everybody live for the music-go-round. Bright ligths the music get faster. Look boy, don't check on your watch, not another glance. I'm not leaving now, honey not a chance. Hot-shot, give me no problems. Much later baby you'll be saying never mind. You know life is cruel, life is never kind. Kind hearts don't make a new story. Kind hearts don't grab any glory. We're the kids in America. We're the kids in America. Everybody live for the music-go-round. Come closer, honey that's better. Got to get a brand new experience. Feeling right. Oh don't try to stop baby. Hold me tight. Outside a new day is dawning. Outside Suburbia's sprawling everywhere. I don't want to go baby. New York to East California. There's a new wave coming I warn you. We're the kids in America. We're the kids in America. Everybody live for the music-go-round. We're the kids We're the kids We're the kids in America |

Well he was Thailand based
She was an airforce wife He used to fly weekends It was the easy life But then it turned around And he began to change She didn't wonder then She didn't think it strange But then he got a call He had to leave that night He couldn't say too much But it would be alright He didn't need to pack They'd meet the next night He had a job to do Flying to Cambodia And as the nights passed by She tried to trace the past The way he used to look The way he used to laugh I guess she'll never know What got inside his soul She couldn't make it out Just couldn't take it all He had the saddest eyes The girl had ever seen He used to cry some nights As though he lived a dream And as she held him close He used to search her face Allthough she knew the truth Lost inside Cambodia But then a call came through They said he'd soon be home She had to pack a case And they would make a rendez-vous But now a year has passed And not a single word And all the love she knew Has disappeared out in the haze Cambodia - Don't cry now - No tears now And now the years have passed With not a single word But there is only one thing left I know for sure She won't see his face again |

Child come away
It's the girl with the deputy walking by Child go and play No I won't give you reasons so don't ask why I read the story about a week ago They found her on the beach that night They thought the light had gone out of her eyes and no-one thinks she'll ever be right She was so full of her life Happy with the people she knew But then no-one can tell Child come away It's the girl with the deputy walking by Child go and play No I won't give you reasons so don't ask why Guess all they found were some marks in the sand A message saying 'She is mine' Nobody touched her as she got in the car Well nobody dares to anytime She was so full of her life The girl that everybody once knew But now no-one can tell Child come away It's the girl with the deputy walking by Child go and play No I won't give you reasons so don't ask why And when they read a story out to the judge I heard they had to turn away It's all over town I saw her face in the back of a car As they were speeding out of town She's got a mark on the side of her face that no-one's ever seen around And what she is or what she's become I guess the town will never know Child come away It's the girl with the deputy walking by Child go and play No I won't give you reasons so don't ask why |

We were dancing
Dancing in the dark Sweet romancing Something's gonna start He stepped into the night With his heart open wide I was standing there With nowhere left to hide He looked to me like a shadow Moving in the night Then he took a hold of my hand In the soft moonlight And we were dancing Dancing in the dark Sweet romancing Something's gonna start I could hear his heartbeat Pounding in the night I could feel his body Starting to be kind With his soft red lips Made up my mind His soothing kiss Was all I desired And we were dancing Dancing in the dark Sweet romancing Something's gonna start We kissed and touched But it wasn't enough To stop this wheel of fire One step at a time And I knew he was mine We were lost in the heat of desire And we were dancing Dancing in the dark Sweet romancing Something's gonna start No way No way at all To stop us moving closer Each look in his eyes Made my heart beat in time Over and over and over and over And we were dancing Dancing in the dark Sweet romancing Something's gonna start And we were dancing Dancing in the dark Sweet romancing Something's gonna start |

View from a bridge, can't take anymore
View from a bridge, can't take anymore I guess it all began about a year ago Like a cheap love magazine You know the kind you read about And have to laugh At the pages in between Now I can't believe that fool inside is me 'Cos I just can't face the world I've grown to see View from a bridge, can't take anymore View from a bridge, can't take anymore I saw you kissing her I saw you making her In the soft sheets in between But when you turned around I saw your eyes were fire And you crashed out all my dreams And like a fool I just stood there And let it go I should have fought right back And let my feelings show View from a bridge, can't take anymore View from a bridge, can't take anymore You sure as hell knew how To make a fool out of me Well you cut me down For the things you want And now it's killing me I'll lay it on the line now You're running out of time now But then a voice said jump And I just let go And I'm floating out in space But then I feel your arms And I turn around To a ghost without a face And I just don't know What's fact or fantasy 'Cos when I look below the bridge I see it's me |

Fresh out of school the young girl lose the sound
She's gonna go where the young bands hang around And it's still to right with a voice inside She's screaming, dreaming And there's no disguise when you look in her eyes she's scheming I'm thinking about the boys She's thinking about the boys Thinking about the boys There in the dark he starts to touch her hair Others go round but right now you don't care Well you just don't fight when they're holding you tight That feeling, feeling Well it looks to good and he's making it so appealing I'm thinking about the boys Thinking about the boys Thinking about the boys Still feeling ground as she goes to make the kill Watching her move the world is standing still Cos its still too right with a voice inside You screaming, dreaming And there's no disguise when you look in their eyes she's scheming I'm thinking about the boys Thinking about the boys Thinking about the boys |

Wow billy what a day
Never thought of seeing you here Funny how it goes Never thought I'd see you fall I heard you're down on luck And now I can see it all Judy took a train Judy took a train to nowhere Weeping on a phone Never to recieve a call So you remember well Now I don't need you at all You're just another guy With just another lie You're just another guy With just another lie I've been around too long Hit me like a shot When he sent your heart to nowhere It really is a shame You shouldn't let your big heart show But then it's no big deal Moving around it I know You're just another guy With just another lie You're just another guy With just another lie I've been around too long Gotta say goodbye Gotta catch a train to nowhere I didn't wanna lie I didn't mean to come on strong But then it's no big scene Hanging around... You're just another guy With just another lie You're just another guy With just another lie |

Feel it in the rushing wind
Brushing up against your mind Look for a way to go Head for the border sign You could be gone You could be far away Soon you must fly free And yes Somehow you'll find what you've been missing There was more to life Than visions we had dreamed about Can you hear it calling you? Can you? Can you hear it calling you? Can you hear it coming through to you? When you hear it calling you It's your freedom If you are on your own If you have been betrayed Stand by the truth you love Don't let it get mislaid You're not alone And nothing can hold you down Soon you will be free And yes Somehow you'll find what you've been missing There was more to life Than anything you dreamed about Can you hear it calling you? Can you? Can you hear it calling you? Can you hear it coming through to you? When you hear it calling you It's your freedom |
