If I knew back then
All the things I know today Baby I would not have changed on hour 'Cause I learned so much From my mistakes All the nights we cried And we prayed we'd see the morning light We never thought that we could ever make it And you were sure You'd never hear me say This is the time This is the moment We've waited so long Just to be standing here We had a dream We made it happen Nobody believed that we could get this far And now I know that this is our time You never wanted any fortune or fame You said "Baby just give me your heart" And now I'll tell you Without any shame That you were right from the start Staying together, it ain't easy In a wold that changes so fast But take a look around Our feet are squarely on the ground 'Cause we've found a love that can last And it seems so clear I know that this is going to be our year We'll forget about the pain and sorrow And we'll forget about the times we failed This is the time This is the moment We've waited so long Just to be standing here We had a dream My God it happened Nobody believed that we could get this far And now I know that this is our time |

"Is this the train to Desert Moon?" was all she said
But I knew I'd heard that stranger's voice before I turned to look into her eyes, but she moved away She was standing in the rain Trying hard to speak my name They say first love never runs dry The waiter poured our memories into tiny cups We stumbled over words we longed to hear We talked about the dreams we'd lost, or given up When a whistle cut the night And shook silence from our lives As the last train rolled towards the dune Those summer nights when we were young We bragged of things we'd never done We were dreamers, only dreamers And in our haste to grow too soon We left our innocence on Desert Moon We were dreamers, only dreamers On Desert Moon, on Desert Moon On Desert Moon, Desert Moon I still can hear the whisper of the summer night It echoes in the corners of my heart The night we stood and waited for the desert train All the words we meant to say All the chances swept away Still remain on the road to the dune Those summer nights when we were young We bragged of things we'd never done We were dreamers, only dreamers Moments pass, and time moves on But dreams remain for just as long As there's dreamers, all the dreamers On Desert Moon, on Desert Moon On Desert Moon, Desert Moon |

Rain began to fall softly
gazed around the room Even now she wondered what went wrong A letter in her hand trembled much placed it by the phone All at once there were footsteps by the door She didn't want a confrontation To tear them apart She wasn't sure of all the feelings Racing through her heart I looked into her eyes Knowing something wasn't right And suddenly the tears began to show Babe, I know that it's wrong But you know I'm really not that strong How I wish I could tell you that I am But before I even read this letter I want you to stay, But if I see your mind's made up There's one thing I've got to say You can call me Baby if you ever change your mind Believe me when I say to you Anytime will be alright You can call me Only seven numbers on the phone Maybe we can talk things over You're never that far from home Oh, no, no baby you're not alone Another season Another change Two hearts are breaking With no one to blame I know the reasons You want to go But if you find that you still want me There's one thing that you know You can call me Baby if you ever change your mind Believe me when I say to you Anytime will be alright You can call me Only seven numbers on the phone Maybe we can talk things over You're never that far from home No, no, no owooh oh, owooh oh Baby. |

Nobody knows your name
Nobody sees you there And when you try your best Nobody seems to care You're afraid you don't fit in You've stopped trying 'cause you never win You really need to tell someone Before you turn and run Not one more sleepless night Not one more word to say No arguments this time You're gonna leave today Distant roads, a stranger's face I know you're searching for a better place Somewhere a second chance Is called you One thing before you go Sound a warning shot Don't just run away Sound a warning shot Love will find the way Ooh you're lonely You're so confused You start believing that it's just no use Somewhere a second chance is calling you One thing before you go Sound a warning shot Don't just run away Sound a warning shot Love will find the way |

Babe, there's something suspicious
I can sense there's a change in you You give me your loving, kissing Say everything's all right I know something ain't cool 'Cause when I say goodnight to you You're a half-a-million miles away And I want to know Will you still be here tomorrow? Babe, I'm getting your message There's been clues lying everywhere You put on your perfume, make-up You're dressing so fine Just to go to the store So if you found somebody who Can give you loving more than I Please tell me tonight--Baby, baby Suspicious thoughts keep creeping into my mind I chase them out but there's no way to disguise I look in your eyes for the slightest affection But all I get is your cool, cool rejection Why can't I admit to the writing on the wall Wait a minute, Baby Can't you see I'm headed for a fall I'm headed for a fall Suspicious thoughts keep creeping into my mind I chase them out but there's no way to disguise I call you at work when lunchtime is over You're always late and you're hardly ever sober What I suspect, it makes me feel small Take it easy, Baby Can't you see I'm headed for a fall I'm headed for a fall |

I've been all around the world
In nearly every city London, Paris, Amsterdam and Tokyo I've stood inside the Berlin Wall I've seen the Eiffel Tower One rainy night in Montreal I shouted Rock 'N' Roll I saw a monkey steal the show Way down in Mexico But the Southbound Ryan It takes me home The Southbound Ryan, I love that road People always ask me why I still live in this city Seems half the population Took the bus to Hollywood I just smile at them And say baby I like the weather Maybe it's courage Maybe it's fear Hell, all my friends are here This town is a habit I can't break The city on the make The Southbound Ryan Damn that road Southbound Ryan Take me home Southbound Ryan Damn that road Southbound Ryan I love that road |

I was lucky you know
I wasn't there I didn't have to go and face my fear But still this hidden pain Comes up from the belly of the beast And even ten years past We're haunted now from both sides of the truth And the ghosts of Dien Bien Phu This war keeps hanging on As if it were today 'Cause many a good men died On the road from Tet to Hue They won every battle they fought But the one that raged at home And now the only words that count Are the names carved out in stone As tears fall onto stone Black Wall Black Wall Sound the bugle boy For a twenty-one gun salute Call for the ticker tape And assemble all the troops Not a word about dominoes Or the horrors of napalm Let Johnny come marching home And greet him with a prayer and a psalm For the boys of Vietnam The boys of Vietnam Let Johnny come back to the world Back to the world Back to the world |

Heaven knows
The time is right I need a change in my direction New excuses, new alibis New ways to chase the same old dream I made my choice I hope I'm right Gonna fix my situation No more chasing after miracles For-leaf clovers, wishing wells too many tomorrows I've waited for But I ain't gonna be that fool anymore 'Cause now I know The change has gotta come And ready or not I'm through with waiting for unanswered prayers I'm gonna shout it to the world Ready or not I'm gonna dry up all my wasted tears Stop feeling sorry for myself 'Cause tears ain't gonna help this time Disappointment's been my address I can't believe I let it happen But tell the postman that I've moved for good And I don't live there anymore And ready or not I'm through with waiting for unanswered prayers I'm gonna shout it to the world Ready or not I'm gonna dry up all my wasted tears Stop feeling sorry for myself These tears ain't gonna help this time |

Gravity keeps pulling me down
(repeat 7X) I want to go to Houston, I want to fly to the stars But I may not have the "Right Stuff" to make the trip to Mars 'Cause it's so hard for me to get my weight off the ground Yes, it's that Gravity ? It keeps pulling me down I want to climb Mount Everest, and find my Shangri-La Learn the secrets of the Universe from the Wise Man in Nepal But it's so hard for me ? That mountain's so steep I know my nose will bleed, 'cause Gravity don't sleep It don't sleep… I'm floating… I'm floating… above the crowd No tensions… no pressures… I touch the clouds I'm flying… I'm flying… in ecstasy My problems can't find me… Zero Gravity Gravity keeps pulling me down That Gravity keeps pulling me down I want to be a driver at the Monaco Grand Prix Have the fastest car in Europe, and meet the Royal Family But it's so dangerous ? It's not the speed that I fear It's just so difficult to get my motor in gear I want to be a Millionaire, and own a baseball team Have a private jet for shopping trips, and a chauffeured limousine And pay no income tax, and be healthy and sound But it's my Gravity ? It keeps holding me down |

Over that mountain, straight down this highway
24 hours from you Counting the headlights, billboards and raindrops Somehow I'll get through Crossing the border, no danger can stop me Oh Lord how I've been missing you Tonight beneath the moon One million dreams reach out to a star Tonight I'll say a prayer And tell the world how lucky we are Tonight, to be in love I still remember that Sunday in Roseland You came alone to the dance I acted crazy to try and impress you What did I know of romance Two children searching for love and assurance Each of us afraid in our own way Tonight beneath the moon One million dreams reach out to a star Tonight I'll say a prayer And tell the world how lucky we are Tonight, to be in love One mile to go Oh the anticipation Gonna hold you tight Making love all night Cause I know how you feel Ya hate separation But I'm down on my knows Please, baby, please Tonight beneath the moon One million dreams reach out to a star Tonight I'll say a prayer And tell the world how lucky we are Tonight, to be in love |

Ever young, always cool
We had our Chevys and our hula-hoops Watching Bandstand and Mickey Mouse A generation born to Twist And Shout Hey everybody We were the children shining like gold Transistor sister under my pillow Go Johnny go New horizons, new frontiers Sons and daughters of our parents' fears Super highways in stereo Make it faster, louder rock 'n roll We were dreaming, happy endings Ask anyone Expectations, the generation Born to run I'm a boomchild baby, warn Uncle Sam Boomchild baby, epidemic in the land I'm a boomchild baby, federal case Boomchild baby, just trying to find a place All at once, the dreams had stopped Three bullets fired ended Camelot But we kept searching for the clues We never knew the world could be so cruel People marching, people dying Carrying signs Assassinations and revelations Blew our minds I'm a boomchild baby, warn Uncle Sam Boomchild baby, epidemic in the land I'm a boomchild baby, born of the bomb Boomchild baby, revolution gone wrong I saw the picture of the flame Thinking back before the world had changed Some reflections make no sense The fall is always hard from innocence Close the door baby, turn the page I do believe we've finally come of age Hitting thirty just like that I know it's corny but it sure goes fast Hey everybody We are the children mining for gold From the hippies to the yuppies Don't you know I'm a boomchild baby, warn Uncle Sam Boomchild baby, epidemic in the land I'm a boomchild baby, I me my Boomchild baby, still trying to find the light |
