Lyrics


1. JUST GOT TO BE

When it come to pride
And other sinful matters
You're gonna be mislead
Left there in tatters

I got to go because
Something's on my mind
And I won't get better
No matter how hard I try

You just got to be
The best thing for me

Evil hides
In dark places
But now I find it
In familiar faces

I got to go because
Something's on my mind
And I won't get better
No matter how hard I try

You just got to be
The best thing for me


2. YOUR TOUCH

And I want
And you got it
So much
I'm crazy for
Your touch

Your touch
Your touch
Your touch

And I'll be good
Like I should
Waiting is such
Misery, I need
Your touch

Your touch
Your touch
Your touch

A little louder now
I've got to shout it now
Please rush
I need
Your touch

Your touch
Your touch
Your touch


3. YOU ‘RE THE ONE

When I was thirteen
My mom said "Son, you're the one I adore"
Now I'm old and wise
When I see your eyes, you're the one I adore

Will you be true
Till life is done
Be the one I adore
You're the one I adore


4. JUST A LITTLE HEAT

Just a little heat
Now on this cold day
You know it would take my
Worry away, worry away

It's in my head
I can't let go
No matter what you said
'Cause I already know
Leaving this place
'Cause you, you've got it written
All over your face

Why can't trouble
Find a new friend
'Cause this can't be the way
The story end
Oh no

It's in my head now
And I can't let go
No matter what you said
'Cause I already know
Leaving this place
'Cause you, you've got it written
All over your face


5. GIVE YOUR HEART AWAY

Follow you down
Hold your hand
Make you realize
I'm the only man
Who got the will
And the way
To be the one to give my heart away

Late at night
When you lay
In the bed
That I made
Who will heed
Your dismay
And be the one to give their heart away

I'm long gone
In outer space
With no one here
Gonna take my place
So bye-bye, baby
I've gone away
And no one there will give their heart away


6. STRANGE DESIRE

I don't wanna go to hell
But if I do
It'll be 'cause of you
And a young man's
Gonna make mistakes
Till he hits the brakes

My heart's on fire
With a strange desire

All those birds, on the wire
Are gonna say I'm a liar,
But we all know, in the end
They never were my friend

My heart's on fire
With a strange desire


7. MODERN TIMES

They're gonna get to it tomorrow
But they don't care at all
They're gonna ease your pain and sorrow
But we heard the same before

All my loving friends
Taking nothing home
And I can't be the one
To lay troubles on

All their homes are broken
And what are they gonna do
There's no magic potion
Their lying days are through

Love and lust
Go hand in hand
Everything turn to dust
In our promised land

Take the well-dressed man
And watch him pass you by
Work your life away
Makes me wanna cry

In these modern times

I'm gonna scream it on a mountain,
To every valley wide
It's all your money they're counting
And to your face they lie

Put on your workboots, mama
And your morning gown
Twelve men dead today
They're already in the ground

See the well-dressed man
Watch him pass you by
Work your life away
Make me wanna cry

In these modern times
In these modern times
In these modern times


8. THE FLAME

Out of all the things
You've ever done
This time I can't go back
When a heart gets broke
This many times
It's easy to lose track

Taking all this pain
And you know I can't regain
The flame
Oh, the flame

Like a dream to me
Time with you
So unreal
Maybe another life
Love for me
Is what you feel

Taking all this pain
And you know I can't regain
The flame, oh

Greater men made it here
Only to turn back
So cut me loose, if you want
Or tighten up the slack

Taking all this pain
And you know we can't regain
The flame
Oh, the flame


9. GOODBYE BABYLON

Well I came to see
And what I found was not alright with me
Desperation, suffocation
And it'd been the same thing all along

Goodbye Babylon
Goodbye Babylon
Goodbye Babylon

Now I know times are changing
And the people need rearranging
So now it's written here in song

Goodbye Babylon
Goodbye Babylon
Goodbye Babylon
Goodbye

Now our boys they're falling
Our leaders are all appalling
And you can bet by God
Good will is gone

Goodbye Babylon
Goodbye Babylon
Oh, goodbye Babylon
Goodbye Babylon


10. BLACK DOOR

What's behind your black door?
I wanna know
I wanna know
May take a week, honey
It may take more
I wanna know
I wanna know

Got to doubt your condition
I wanna know
I wanna know
It would end
My suspicion
I wanna know
I wanna know

When I see it start to open
Can't you hear me
Begging please


11. ELEVATOR

In the elevator
I pick my floor
And if I wanna battle
I pick my war

Hold tight
Hold on
Hold tight
I was blind for a time
Now I find the choice is mine

And I get seasick
On dry land
And I hear voices
Saying: "do what you can"

Hold tight
Hold on
I was blind for a time
Now I find that the choice is mine

Hold tight
Hold on
I was blind for a time
Now I find that the choice is mine
The choice is mine
The choice is mine
