1.DOWN TO THE WIRE

One by one the lights go on again
One by one the lights go on again
And there beats a neon heart
In a city torn apart

Where can we run to where can we hide
When can I see you I need you tonight
I wanna know how it feels one more time
Before we go down to the wire

Come on baby let's leave this town behind
Come on baby let's leave while there's still time

Let's take that car and hit the road
Drive as far as we can go

Where can we run to where can we hide
When can I see you I need you tonight
I wanna know how it feels one more time
Before we go down to the wire

One by one the lights go on again
One by one the lights go on again
And they look like diamonds shining in the rain

And it feels so good tonight
This city's burning bright

Down to the wire
Down to the wire

Where can we run to where can we hide
When can I see you I need you tonight
I wanna know how it feels one more time
Before we go down to the wire



2. CELEBRATE

And in the here and now
Where the dream is sold
I lay my money down
And so the truth is told
Is it a crime oh say it isn't so
Killing time the only way I know

And when it all comes down
No matter what they say
The truth can still be found
When nothing else remains
It shines unseen
In my heart I know it's right
Shine for me this starless night

Celebrate, celebrate open your heart
Celebrate, celebrate open your heart
And let the feeling flow
Don't stand and look for words to say
Forget all that you know
Celebrate this final day

Only now, now I can see your face
Tonight is ours, let tomorrow wait

Chorus

And on this hallowed ground
We've come to call our home
We build a wall of sound
And stand or fall alone
While others wait for guidance from above
We celebrate our love, love, love

Chorus




3. WALK IN MY SHADOW

Don't tell me what I want
Don't tell me what I need
Don't say you know what's best for me
I've had enough of dancing to your tune
So listen up I've got news for you

From now on I'm gonna play to win
And I don't care what anybody thinks

You can walk in my shadow
You can walk in my shadow

What's good for you is good for me
Walk a mile in my shoes and then you'll see
How it feels, one day you'll know
I can see you laughing baby but it's no joke

From now on I'm gonna play to win
And I don't care what anybody thinks

You can walk in my shadow
You can walk in my shadow

You can tell me now how it feels
You better get used to it coz here's the deal
When I say jump that's what I mean
And when I say, you come running to me

From now on I'm gonna play to win
And I don't care what anybody thinks

You can walk in my shadow
You can walk in my shadow



4. CINDER ROAD

All the secret places
All the dreams I've known
All the golden faces melt into one
And everywhere I turn just brings me back I know
Had my fingers burned but I can't let go

I'm waiting, still waiting
Where can we go now

Cinder Road
Cinder road

All the secret places
All the dreams I've known
All the golden faces melt into one
And everywhere I turn just brings me back I know
Had my fingers burned but I can't let go

I'm waiting, still waiting
Where can we go now

Cinder Road
Cinder road

We can count the changes
Watch the world go by
I'll do what you say just don't ask me why
You're a fallen angel
Come back down to earth
You could be the answer to all my prayers

I'm waiting, still waiting
Where can we go now

Cinder Road
Cinder road

My pulse is racing
And the blood runs cold
My hands are shaking but I can't let go

I'm waiting, still waiting
Where can we go now

Cinder Road
Cinder road



5. I WILL WAIT

I close my eyes and I count to ten
But when I wake up you're not there
They say time heals well I wonder when
I don't know if I'll ever learn

All I know is that I need you
And I don't care how long it takes

I will wait
I will wait

And if it takes twice as long again
Well you know that it's alright
I will wait till the bitter end
If there's a chance you'll change your mind

And if it takes you forever
Can't you see that I don't care

I will wait
I will wait

Heaven knows that I still need you
I don't care how long it takes

I will wait
I will wait

Until the last of all my days
And the stars no longer shine
If you ask then I will wait
Till the very end of time




6. STOP THE WORLD

I still can't believe that it could ever be
This way and not be a dream
I know it can't last
The world turns too fast for us
But while it does

You're mine, all mine
All I need tonight's to know you're mine

Don't breathe a word, don't change a hair
Stop the world right now see if I care
The light that shines above, let it shine for me alone
So that I know, so that I know

You're mine, all mine
All I need tonight's to know you're mine

Stop the world
We're just killing time
Let me hear you say you're mine
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine

I'd wear your heart on my sleeve for all the world to see
Would you do the same for me
Show me that you care
Don't ask me to share you with anyone
Not anyone

You're mine, all mine
All I need tonight's to know you're mine




7. FALLING AGAIN

Hear me calling through the wires again
Calling out for you
Through the sky like a bird of prey (hey hey)
Crying out for you
And I crawl on my hands and knees
Like some kind of creature possessed
Try to stand on my own two feet
But I can't seem to find the strength

The night falls so slowly now
As soft as summer rain
And it brings me further down
Hear me calling out your name

Save me I think I'm falling again
Save me
I don't know which way to turn
Save me

There's a weight hanging over me
Hanging over my head
It's too late now for charity
I'm way out of my depth

Save me I think I'm falling again
Save me
I don't know which way to turn
Save me

There's a weight hanging over me
Hanging over my head
It's too late now for charity
I'm way out of my depth

Save me I think I'm falling again
Save me
I don't know which way to turn
Save me

I think I'm falling
I think I'm falling
I think I'm falling again




8. HEAVEN AND BEYOND

Save your tears he cried for my soul
I fear what I have done
It's time to say goodbye
To the fools I pinned my hopes upon

They'll try to break your will
Grind you down until all your dreams have gone
But you can set me free
Oh let me see heaven and beyond

We look for words to say
In a cold grey corner of the room
On the bed where we lay
I kneel and pray that morning never comes

The wall's are closing in on my heart again
Tell me that I'm wrong
You can set me free
Oh let me see heaven and beyond

So where's the sense in waiting
Only you will know
Save your tears for my soul
Take the gun, do it now, do it now
It's better now than a life slowly dying

Shot

They'll try to break your will
Grind you down until all your dreams have gone
But you can set me free
Oh let me see heaven and beyond
You can set me free
Oh let me see heaven and beyond




9. THE LOVE I NEED

I don't want the world
You know that's not my style
I was born and raised a country girl
Not the queen of the Nile
I don't ask for much
No I'm as good as gold
I don't need a love with a Midas touch
Just a hand to hold

The kind of love that I'm looking for is priceless
Can't you see the love I need

Why promise me the earth
That's not what I need
The simple things in life are worth much more to me
Just give me your word, say it's mine to keep
Give me it all or nothing baby can't you see

The kind of love that I'm thinking of
Knows no in-betweens
Can't you see the love I need

Well I'll spell it out, say it loud and clear
t.h.e.l.o.v.e.
you know I can't live without your love
without your loving to see me through
I don't know what I want sometimes
But I know nothing else will do

The kind of love that I'm looking for is priceless
Can't you see the love I need

The kind of love that I'm looking for is priceless
Can't you see the love I need

The kind of love that makes fools of kings
And brings nations to their knees
That's the love I need

The love I need
The love I need

I don't know what I want sometimes
But I know nothing else will do




10. SPIN THE WHEEL

Oh silver moon shine
As sure as seasons change
When the bells chime
Reason slips away
What do we know
Watch the wheel go round again
Around again

This fascination
The need I can't explain
To see your face shine
Through the tears again
Why did you go
Were our dreams so far apart
So far apart

All I hear is the call of the wild and
All I see are the walls we can climb
Never fear take the blame for a while
Save your tears, it's all a game
It's all a game we play

Just like the last time
Some things will never change
When the die's cast who are we to say
What do we know
Watch the tears roll down your face
Roll down your face

All this time I've believed and I've hoped
But all the while I've a feeling you've known
I wonder why I treat you like I do
No don't cry, it's all a game
All a game we play

With a loaded dice an empty chamber
Pain the price of tempting fate
Her favours few and far between
But who said that the ride was free
Oh no not me, these lips are signed and sealed
Oh no not me, just spin the wheel
