Badge - Cream

Thinkin’ ‘bout the times you drove in my car
Thinkin’ that I might have drove you too far
And I’m thinkin’ 'bout the love that you laid on my table

I told you not to wander 'round in the dark
I told you 'bout the swans, that they live in the park
Then I told you 'bout our kid, now he’s married to Mabel

Yes, I told you that the light goes up and down
Don’t you notice how the wheel goes 'round?
And you better pick yourself up from the ground
Before they bring the curtain down
Yes, before they bring the curtain down, ooh

Get up, get up, get up (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Yeah, yeah, yeah (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Yeah, yeah, yeah (ooh, ooh, ooh)

Talkin’ 'bout a girl that looks quite like you
She didn’t have the time to wait in the queue
She cried away her life since she fell out the cradle

Would I Lie To You - Whitesnake

Hey girl, if you want me
Come and get me
Don’t hang around or we could spend the night sleeping alone

If you could change your style for a while
Look in my direction
Tell me, do I look the kind of guy
Who takes advantage of a women like you
Or is that what you want?

Would I lie to you?
Would I lie to you?
I would do anything that you want me to
But would I lie to you?

Would I lie to you?
Would I lie to you?
Baby, I would do anything that you want me to
But would I lie to, would I lie to, would I lie to you? Yeah

Hey girl, if you need
Some love and affection
I’ll whisper all the sweet, sweet nothings
I know you little girls like to hear
Now listen

If you would change your mind
We could find a night of satin sheet action
I promise I won’t do anything
Baby, unless you wanted me to
And that’s a fact

Would I lie to you?
Would I lie to you?
I would do anything that you want me to
But would I lie to you?

Baby, baby, would I lie to you?
Would I lie to you?
I would do anything that you want me to
But would I lie to, would I lie to, should I lie to you?

Just to get in your pants

I don’t wanna sleep alone tonight
After all you put me through
I’ve spent the whole night searching
For a woman just like you

Look in my eyes
Hear the words that I say
If my eyes tell you lies
Then, baby, it’s just because I want you to stay

Would I lie to you?
Would I lie to you?
I would do anything that you want me to
But would I lie to you?

Would I lie to you?
Would I lie to you?
Baby, I would do anything that you want me to
But would I lie to, would I lie to, would I lie to you?
Baby, baby

Would I lie to you?
Would I lie to you?
Baby, I would do anything that you want me to
But would I lie to you?

Would I lie to you?
Would I lie to you?
Baby, I would do anything that you want me to
But would I lie to, would I lie to, should I lie to you?

Just to get in your pants
I don’t think so

[Stacy2]

At the end
Of the road
Where the sea
Meets the sky
All we know
We’ll be leading to one

While the day
Wears you down
And you dance
Without sun
Kiss the ground
We’ll be reaching for

One love forever
One all-consuming light to find
One love forever
Leading me home

At the end
of the road
Where the silence
Gets loud
In your soul
We’re surrounded by

One love forever
One all-consuming light to find
One love forever
One chance creates your life
One love forever
For one consuming hole inside
One love forever

Son of dark and light
Awaiting
I’m laying him down like a centipede
Here’s a flash of light
Cascading
Like an ocean it drowns my enemy

One love for all time
Is calling
Our eyes contain eternity
It’s written on our souls
It must be
And still this love goes on…

• One Love Forever (Flying Colors)

[Stacy2]

Can you understand me
Baby, don’t you hand me a line
Although it doesn’t matter
You and me got plenty of time

There’s nobody in the future
So baby let me hand you my love
There’s no step for you to dance to
So slip your hand inside of my glove

Hold me, hold me, hold me
Hold me, hold me, hold me

I don’t want no damage
But how’m I gonna manage with you
You hold the percentage
But I’m the fool payin’ the dues

I’m just around the corner
If you got a minute to spare
I’ll be waitin’ for you
If you ever wanna be there

Hold me, hold me, hold me
Hold me, hold me, hold me

• Hold me (Fleetwood Mac)

[Stacy2]

It’s always a struggle
To let somebody go
It’s a natural desire
To own your lover, I know

And you can screw a man down
Until he takes to drinking
He’ll give you all of his money
You still won’t know what he’s thinking

Take me to the fantastic place
Keep the rest of my life away
Take me to the fantastic place
Keep the rest of my life away

Take me to the island
I’ll watch the rain over your shoulder
The streetlights in the water
The moment outside of real life

I never could dream while I was sleeping
Put your arms around my soul
And take it dancing..

Take me to the fantastic place
Keep the rest of my life away
Take me to the fantastic place
Keep the rest of my life away

Take me to the island
I’ll watch the rain over your shoulder
The streetlights on the wet stone
The moment outside of real life

Say you understand me
And I will leave myself completely
Forgive me if I stare
But I can see the island
behind your tired, troubled eyes

Take me to the island
I’ll tell you all I never told you
The boy I never showed you
More than I gave in my life
Take me by the hand
You’ll either kill me or you’ll save me
Take me to the island
Show me what might be real life

The Trooper-Iron Maiden

You’ll take my life, but I’ll take yours too

You’ll fire your musket, but I’ll run you through

So when you’re waiting for the next attack

You’d better stand, there’s no turning back

The bugle sounds, the charge begins

But on this battlefield, no one wins

The smell of acrid smoke and horses’ breath

As I plunge on into certain death

The horse, he sweats with fear, we break to run

The mighty roar of the Russian guns

And as we race towards the human wall

The screams of pain as my comrades fall

We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground

And the Russians fire another round

We get so near, yet so far away

We won’t live to fight another day

We get so close, near enough to fight

When a Russian gets me in his sights

He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow

A burst of rounds take my horse below

And as I lay there gazing at the sky

My body’s numb and my throat is dry

And as I lay forgotten and alone

Without a tear, I draw my parting groan

[wildflower]

N.I.B - Black Sabbath

Oh, yeah

Some people say my love cannot be true
Please believe me, my love, and I’ll show you
I will give you those things you thought unreal
The sun, the moon, the stars, all bear my seal

Oh, yeah

Follow me now and you will not regret
Leaving the life you led before we met
You are the first to have this love of mine
Forever with me 'til the end of time

Your love for me has just got to be real
Before you know the way I’m going to feel
I’m going to feel
I’m going to feel

Oh, yeah

Now I have you with me under my thoughts
Our love grows stronger now with every hour
Look into my eyes, you’ll see who I am
My name is Lucifer, please take my hand

Oh, yeah

Follow me now and you will not regret
Leaving the life you led before we met
You are the first to have this love of mine
Forever with me 'til the end of time

Your love for me has just got to be real
Before you know the way I’m going to feel
I’m going to feel
I’m going to feel

Oh, yeah

Now I have you with me under my thoughts
Our love grows stronger now with every hour
Look into my eyes, you’ll see who I am
My name is Lucifer, please take my hand

Fortress - Alter Bridge

Am I lost to wander forever?
Perhaps for the rest of my days
If all that has been surrendered will just go to waste
You left me out in the distance
To wander this world on my own
Sometimes it’s so hard to admit it
Still I can’t let go, I can’t let you go

Go on and take it all, go on and take it all, oh
I know we can’t save it all, know we can’t save it all, oh
Everything is gone
Oh, I have seen it all, oh, I have seen it all, oh
Go on and take it all, go on and take it all, oh
Ooh, ooh

One thing I know is for certain
We cannot have all we want
Still, this will not stop the hurting
It is never gone
Now I hold on to the one thing
Too fragile to stand on its own
The fortress we built, it is crumbling
And I can’t let go, I can’t let you go

Go on and take it all, go on and take it all, oh
Oh, I have seen it all, oh, I have seen it all, oh
Everything is gone
Oh, I have seen it all, oh, I have seen it all, oh
Go on and take it all, go on and take it all, oh

Oh-oh, there’ll come a time, yes, I know
There’ll come a time
You’ll look back to regret when it’s gone
You’ll look back to regret when it’s gone
Oh, there’ll come a time, yes I know
There’ll come a time
You’ll look back to regret when it’s gone
You’ll look back to regret when it’s gone, yeah

In the end, too far gone
This I can’t deny
Still, I keep holding on and on
There’s still time
On the outside looking in
Everything seems fine
But the fortress caving in comes down on me tonight

Go on and take it all, go on and take it all, oh
Oh, I have seen it all, oh, I have seen it all, oh
Everything is gone
Oh, I have seen it all, oh, I have seen it all, oh
So, go on and take it all, go on and take it all, oh
Take it all
Just take it all, oh

Over To You - Black Sabbath

Born in the window
Cold blooded spoof
Raised in the prison
You called the school
Taught young in legends
Told what to do
I handed my childhood
Over to you

Travelling endlessly, I’m searching for mind
I’m almost afraid of what I will find
Wandering aimlessly, oh what can I do?
I handed my future over to you, to you

Over to you
Future looks blue
What can I do?

Watching for freedom
Fighting our wars
Feeding our children
Keeping your laws
Someday you’ll suffer
And what I’ll do
I’ll hand all your promises
Over to you

Standing inside myself, I’m losing control
You made me believe in the stories you told
Waiting impatiently, what else can I do?
I handed my future over to you, to you

Over to you
Future looks blue
What can I do?

Tears filled of sadness
Stealing myself
Which burning secrets?
What to they tell?
Mad politicians
Can tell it true
I handed my children
Over to you

All over, over to you
All over, over to you
All over, over to you

[Stacy2]

Perhaps I was wrong
When I didn’t see you, hey, hey
Perhaps I was wrong, hey
When I don’t believe you

But how would I know how it feels
Or what it takes to be you?
I’ve been so upset
Harboring this hate for days

Hey, my sense of rejection
Hey, hey
Is no excuse for my behavior, hey
You pulled the gun, hey, hey
That shot and crucified my savior

Now he is no more and I am without you
Just like I was before
The way I used to be, hey
What a weight upon
your shoulders that you don’t need
My heart bleeds for me

Got a lot more than I bargained for
You’re all alone now
You forgot about the
others you were fighting for
You’re all alone
Ooh, sold out to the
ones that you once ignored
You’re all alone now
You used to be a little crazy,
now there’s so much more
You’re all alone

Perhaps I was wrong, hey, hey
When I didn’t see you, hey, hey
Perhaps I was wrong, hey
When I don’t believe you

But how would I know how it feels
Or what it takes to be you?
I’ve been so upset
Harboring this hate for days
Oh, what a weight
upon your shoulders that you don’t need
My heart bleeds for me

Got a lot more than I bargained for
You’re all alone now
You forgot about the
others you were fighting for
You’re all alone
Ooh, sold out to the
ones that you once ignored
You’re all alone now
You used to be a little crazy,
now there’s so much more
You’re all alone

• Perhaps (Guns N Roses)

[Stacy2]

Here’s to you! Here’s to me!
Masters of the universe
The curse of destiny

All for one, it’s one for all
Now you can pull the trigger
As we’re knocking down on the wall
When you finally shoot too high
The lie will always bring it down
You resurrection angels,
Look what we found
That the wheel goes around
So here’s to you!

Come on, raise the dead
Heads will roll
Cancel the infection
We can purify the soul

Do the crime
Then write the law
There’s no wrong you can change it where
A change you’ve never saw

Hey, you desperation angels
Here we found
That they all fell down
So
Here’s to me! Here’s to you!
Here’s to you! Here’s to me!

Here’s to reason!
Here’s to me! Here’s to you!
Raise the dead! Here’s to freedom!

• Here’s To You (Dio)

[Stacy2]

I know you think you’re all alone
I haven’t been there when you’ve needed me
I didn’t deserve the love you gave
But now I’m telling you
I’m here if you need a friend

Give me your pain
Give me your anger
Let me be your rock
I can be the pillar of strength that you need
I’ll help you keep it all together
It’s better late than never
Lay your world on me
I can take the weight

Don’t let it twist you up inside
Time never fails to make the heartache stop
You’ve got to let those feelings go
I’ll give you everything
I can if you say the word

Give me your pain
Give me your anger
Let me be your rock
I can be the pillar of strength that you need
I’ll help you keep it all together
It’s better late than never
Lay your world on me
I can take the weight

We all laugh and we all cry
We all hurt the same inside
We all fall down and
we lose faith in who we really are
But if we bend instead of break
The choice for us is to make it together
Lay your world on me

I’ll help you keep it all together
It’s better late than never
Lay your world on me
Lay your world on me
Lay your world on me
I can take the weight

Johnny-Thin Lizzy

Somewhere on the waterfront

Johnny’s hiding with a gun

Swears he’ll kill any man that tells his story

He ain’t sorry for what he’s done

He broke into a drugstore

Just to cure a daily need

Didn’t mean to shoot the guard

But he was blinded by the greed

Oh Johnny, oh Johnny

Oh Johnny, oh Johnny

See that nun, she’s his sister

She doesn’t know that he’s gone bad

When they told it to his papa

Well it drove the old man mad

Just like his mother warned him

From her dying bed

It’s alright to lose your mind

But never lose your head

Oh Johnny, oh Johnny

Oh Johnny, oh Johnny

Look out

Now the cops have got him surrounded

And he doesn’t stand a hope

He wonders how he could be in so much trouble

Over just a little dope

Five to one he gets away

That’s the odds I’m gonna give

Five to four they blast him away

Three to one he’s gonna live

Oh Johnny, oh Johnny

Oh Johnny, oh Johnny

Back in the alley where he was slain

I thought I heard something move

Beside the trash can lay a heart in chains

The picture had been removed

It was just another drug card juicer

Looking for a bed

It’s alright to lose your mind

But never lose your head

Oh Johnny, oh Johnny

Oh Johnny, what have they done?

Oh Johnny, oh Johnny

Look out

[Stacy2]

Yeah

I see the power changin’ hands
Risin’ from the streets
A self-made businessman
Knows how the system can be beat

Oh, we’re the lost generation
Have no place to go
The road to destruction
Is all we need to know

'Cause it’s a rip-off
We’re stepped on and cheated
We’re flat stone cold lied to
We’re not defeated, no

It’s ah, easy money
It’s a way out
Join the family
No middleman, no IRS
Your ticket out of poverty

Oh, we’re the lost generation
I hold fate from a string
Lookin’ for a direction
Reachin’ out for anything

So, dream another dream
This dream is over (ooh)
Dream another dream
This dream is over (over)
Dream another dream
This dream is over (over)
Over, yeah
So dream another dream

Ow
Ow

Ow, it’s a rip-off
Stepped on and cheated
Flat stone cold lied to
We’re not defeated, no

Dream another dream
This dream is over (ooh)
Dream another dream
This dream is over, over
(dream another dream)
Dream another dream
This dream is over, oh
Dream another dream
This dream is over, over,
yeah (dream another dream)

• The Dream Is Over (Van Halen)

[Stacy2]

When the daylight is falling down
into the night
And the sharks try to cut a big piece out of life
It feels alright to go out to
catch an outrageous thrill
But it’s more like spinning wheels of fortune
Which never stand still

Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights

When the sunlight is rising up in my eyes
And the long night has
left me back at somebody’s side
It feels alright for a long
sweet minute like hours before
But it’s more like looking out for something
I can’t find anymore

Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
Always yearning

There is no dream
That you can’t make true,
if you’re looking for love
But there’s no girl
Who’s burning the ice away from my heart
Maybe tonight!

Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
Always yearning
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
Always yearning..

• Big city nights (Scorpions)

[Stacy2]

The light in the window is a crack in the sky
A stairway to darkness in the blink of an eye
A levee of tears to learn
she’ll never be coming back
The man in the dark will bring another attack

Your mama told you that you’re
not supposed to talk to strangers
Look in the mirror, tell me,
do you think your life’s in danger here?

No more tears
No more tears
No more tears
No more tears

Another day passes as the night closes in
The red light goes on to say it’s time to begin
I see the man around the corner waiting,
can he see me?
I close my eyes and wait to hear the sound of someone screaming here

No more tears
No more tears
No more tears
No more tears

“It’s just a sign of the times going forward in reverse. Still, he who laughs
last is just a hand in the bush.”

“A hand in the bush.”

So now that it’s over can’t
we just say goodbye? (Bye bye goodbye)
I’d like to move on and make
the most of the night
Maybe a kiss before I leave
you this way
Your lips are so cold,
I don’t know what else to say

I never wanted it to end this way,
my love, my darling
Believe me when I say to you
in love I think I’m falling here

No more tears
No more tears
No more tears
No more tears

“It’s just a hand in the bush.”
“In-in the bush, in-in the bush, in-in the bush,
in-in the bush, in-in the bush, in-in the bush…”

You won’t hear me

But you’ll feel me

Without warning, somethings dawning, listen (listen, listen)

Then within your senses

You’ll know you’re defenseless

How your heart beats when you run for cover (cover, cover)

You can’t retreat, I spy like no other

Then we race together

We can ride forever

Wrapped in horsepower, driving into fury

Changing gear, I pull you tighter to me

I’m your turbo lover

Tell me there’s no other

I’m your turbo lover

Better run for cover

We hold each other closer, as we shift to overdrive

And everything goes rushing by, with every nerve alive

We move so fast, it seems as though we’ve taken to the sky

Love machines in harmony, we hear the engines cry

I’m your turbo lover

Tell me there’s no other

I’m your turbo lover

Better run for cover

On and on we’re charging to the place so many seek

In perfect synchronicity of which so many speak

We feel so close to heaven in this roaring heavy load

And then in sheer abandonment, we shatter and explode (explode)

I’m your turbo lover

Tell me there’s no other

I’m your turbo lover

Better run for cover

I’m your turbo lover

Tell me there’s no other

I’m your turbo lover

Better run for cover

[Stacy2]

Beware of night for we all know he’s loose again
Behind him lies the eyes of mercy and despair
Forever living out his nightmare comes to life
From hell this spell will find its way to you
Tonight
Tonight

A thousand cries are heard,
they echo in the wind
And still the rider will unleash his chosen sin
The victims of his rage are soldiers of his mind
His scream will heed the call of those who stand behind

The nightrider sails away
The nightrider sails yeah

By day the rider will have vanished from all eyes
Seen from within the only answer to him lies
But as the rays of light begin to fade away
The rider will return to carry out his stay

The nightrider sails away
The nightrider sails yeah

Beware of the night
Beware of the night
Beware of the night
Oh god, beware of the night

The Spirit Carries On-Dream Theater

Where did we come from?

Why are we here?

Where do we go when we die?

What lies beyond

And what lay before?

Is anything certain in life?

They say, life is too short

The here and the now

And you’re only given one shot

But could there be more

Have I lived before

Or could this be all that we’ve got?

If I die tomorrow

I’d be all right

Because I believe

That after we’re gone

The spirit carries on

I used to be frightened of dying

I used to think death was the end

But that was before

I’m not scared anymore

I know that my soul will transcend

I may never find all the answers

I may never understand why

I may never prove

What I know to be true

But I know that I still have to try

If I die tomorrow

I’d be alright

Because I believe

That after we’re gone

The spirit carries on

Move on, be brave

Don’t weep at my grave

Because I am no longer here

But please never let

Your memory of me disappear

Safe in the light that surrounds me

Free of the fear and the pain

My questioning mind

Has helped me to find

The meaning in my life again

Victoria’s real

I finally feel

At peace with the girl in my dreams

And now that I’m here

It’s perfectly clear

I found out what all of this means

If I die tomorrow

I’d be alright

Because I believe

That after we’re gone

The spirit carries on
