Lyrics


1. GIRLS AROUND THE WORLD

Where are the girls of my dreams
The ladies and the queens
Starry eyed babies
Haunting me and making me feel alone

Brigitte Bardot is asleep
Inside a magazine
Judy Garland is gone
And Rita Hayworth has moved on

On those restless nights
When life is so cruel
I forget the rules
And I drift away on my own
On my own
Until I can feel
And I can see

All of the girls around the world (3x)
So close to me
To me...

Cleopatra's eyes
Have been closed a long time
Marylin is now
Nothing more than just a memory

Where are you Vivian Leigh
And the Hollywood stars
Romeo's kind of lost
Juliet seems to be so far

When my dreams are through
The night turns to blue
Got a single wish
And it's to come back to all of you
All of you
Until I can see
And I can feel

Refrain



2. WE ALL NEED A LOVE

I need some information
On how to get closer to you
I feel such a sensation
When I'm looking at you
I
want you girl
I need you girl
You know it's so hard to explain

Without you girl
There's no life
And in my heart a sort of pain

We all need a love
To stay alive
We all need a love
To stay alive
We all need a love...

I need some information
Who can tell me what I must do
I feel such a sensation
When I'm dreaming of you

I want you girl
I need you girl
I see your face and light above

I look at you
And I know you
My heart is hanging by a thread of love

Refrain



3. HOPELESS CASE

I can see no solution
You say it's black
All is black
When it's white

So much confusion
You say I'm wrong
Always wrong
And you're right

Been trying like a fool
But you run away
Run away
When I stay

How can I love you
I'm in earnest
When you play

Baby lay down your arms let's make a deal again
Why can't you see this love is not a game ?

And even if it's a hopeless case
You and me baby
Even if it's a hopeless case
I want you to stay
Yes even if it's a hopeless case...

For no reaseon at all
You feel so down
Low and down
When I'm high

Sometimes so cold
You just smile
Laugh and smile
When I cry

I can see no solution
You say it's black
All is black
When it's white

So much confusion
I'm always wrong
And you're right

Baby lay down your arms give us another chance
Don't take it all so bad, break this silence.

Refain



4. SOMEWHERE IN THE NIGHT

Rolling down a highway
On a windy night
Going to nowhere
But it feels so right

I need to get away
And get back my pride
The damage is done
It's something I can't hide

There's many things I can say
But it's such a shame
I'd rather go on my way
And forget her name

I need to get away
And get back my pride
The damage is done
It's something I can't hide
I've got a pain in my side

Somewhere in the night
I'm looking for another chance (2x)

Rolling down a highway
And I won't stop now
I'm going through the days
With my foot down

I need to get away
The world is so wide
I forget the days
And the nights that I cried
I've got a pain in my side...

Refrain



5. DESERT LAND

Get up in the morning for a new day
Looking for my way
Walking alone in the empty town
Hanging around

But who pays attention
To these kinds of questions
That we should ask

Shadowy people passing me by
Somber and wry
Cast aways of an ancient wreck
Hanging their heads

But who pays attention
To these kinds of questions
We don't dare ask

Feel I'm in a desert land
An empty world
And nobody cares
Feel I'm in a desert land
An empty world
Crying with dispair
Feel I'm in a desert land...

I go home at night my mind's aching
Got a strange feeling
As if I couldn't understant today
The meaning of my days

But who pays attention
To these kinds of questions
We don't want to ask

Refrain



6. EVERYTHING FROM YOU

I don't know what to say
What's on your mind
You know that I can't see through you

I don't know what to do
I feel so blind
Whatever you want I'll give you

I don't know what to think
You say you're mine
But you're playing with me as if nothing was true

I've got a secret for you
Believe me baby
That's true!
I've got a secret for you
I've got a secret
Got a secret....

I love your tears
I love your smiles
I love just everything from you
I love your fears
I love your lies
I could do anything for you

I don't know what to say
I'm so confused
Each of your words is loosing me

I don't know what to do
I stand accused
I'll be what you want me to be

I don't know what to think
You break the rules
And you feel like you own everything you see

I've got a secret for you
Believe me baby
That's true!
I've got a secret for you
I've got a secret
Got a secret....

Refrain



7. VALENTINE

Valentine leans against the wall
And she'd like to be once and for all
Just like you and me, follow her way
Or just try to find it anyway
But it's late
We should be off now

Valentine worries about the world
Valentine's afraid by all the words
That she hears in the news every night
Even though the speaker tries to smile
And it's late
We should be off now

But the passers-by of the white city
Don't pay attention, show no mercy
She's much too lost, about to fall
So she keeps her back against the wall
Just her back against the wall

Valentine keep your dreams
And try to hold them back
As long as you can
Valentine keep your dreams
You'll need them to survive
Need them to revive
Valentine keep your dreams

Valentine don't really understand
What the matter is and her little hand
Is held out looking for a strong arm
Something in her head sounds the alarm
And it's late
We should be off now

When she wants to know I'm ashamed to tell her
What we leave behind for children like her
What it might bring in the coming years
Why so many people check their tears
Many people check their tears

Refrain



8. TAKE IT AS IT COMES

Oh girl
I just wanna make it clear
So please try to check your tears
Cos' there's something wrong with our love

I know
You're always trying to conceal
What you want or what you feel
But do you think this can be called love

My girl I don't want to hurt your affection
You see there is only one condition

I love you baby
Don't want to figure out
I love you baby
I love you baby
Take it as it comes
Love you baby

I know
You just wanna hold me tight
You want to stay by my side
I don't want to be put in chains

Oh girl
I know you want me to change
You say that I am so strange
But there's nothing I can explain

My girl help me we're gonna make it right
Tonight, you just have to switch off the light

Refrain



9. LOST IN HER EYES

And I get into the dark room
Sit down in a corner
And they come to me, surrounding me
But I know why they're smiling

So I listen to their words now
They say I'd better leave her
Cos' the fortune tellers just can't see
What tomorrow will bring

And they've got some good advice now
Still time to give up
Got to change your mind, ain't your kind
To fall for a stray one

But whatever they say
I know these are all lies
I'm just on my way

Lost in her eyes
I believe in her smiles
If they say I'm blind
I don't mind

And they try to speak softer now
Try to cheer me up
Single one you lose, ten you'll find
You know it's not the right one

All is silent in the dark room
I'm sitting in the corner
As they look at me, stare at me
I'm far away dreaming

And whatever they say
I know these are all lies
I'm just on my way...

Refrain
