1. Days Of No Trust
Pray to they future, look to the past
Face the accuser, freeze in our tracks
When so many children have fallen from grace
The doors should be open, no scorn or disgrace
Keys have been stolen, treasure is lost
Lesson is golden, hearts have been crossed
So here's to the heroes, come one and come all
Without them, well who knows? Who knows at all?
In these days of no trust – evermore hostility
We're all living under the same old sky
'Cause we're all living, we're telling the same old lie
In these days, in these days, in these days of no trust
And music recorded might influence dreams
But headlines are courted by stretch limousines
Pictures of plenty, stuck to the walls
For heads that are empty, brains on the floor
Can't take any more
Someone is shouting revolution is here
But he'll climb any mountain for his selfish career
The truth's not a curtain, to be drawn back and forth
It's a flame that keep burning, everlasting torch
In these days of no trust – evermore hostility
We're all living under the same old sky
'Cause we're all living, we're telling the same old lie
In these days, in these days, in these days of no trust
2. Wild Swan
Wild swan, follow the river, don't fly through dangerous skies
On and on, from bow and quiver, ride over mountains so high
Over fields and the ruin of castles, into the evening we soar
City lights begin to sparkle like diamonds thrown to the floor
Fly home – it's just me and you, your only son
Fly home – I've been waiting to, the time has come
Fly home – it's just me and you, your only son
Fly home – I've been waiting to, the time has come
Wild swan, follow the river, don't fly through dangerous skies
On and on, from bow and quiver, ride over mountains so high
Out to sea on the wings of heaven, where silver cuts like a knife
Say farewell to the ships of the ocean, we travel into the night
Fly home – it's just me and you, your only son
Fly home – I've been waiting to, the time has come
Fly home – it's just me and you, your only son
Fly home – I've been waiting to, the time has come
3. Start Talking Love
Just another broken heart, any fool can see
Though we're living worlds apart, you're still next to me
I'm never going to give you up, never want to make you cry
Never going to give you up, never going to say goodbye
It's just another lonely night, I'm missing you again
Nothing ever turns out right, so when's it going to end?
I'm never going to give you up, never want to make you cry
Never going to give you up, I'm never going to say goodbye
When you start talking love
You know that I'd run through the night
To be with you – talk about love
It's a walk from the dark to the light
To be with you – start talking love
Talk about love
You left me with a broken heart, any fool can see
Now we're living worlds apart, guess it was meant to be
I'm never going to give you up, I never want to make you cry
Never going to give you up, I'm never going to say goodbye
When you start talking love
You know that I'd run through the night
To be with you – talk about love
It's a walk from the dark to the light
To be with you – start talking love
Talk about love
4. One Step Away
See you like the water's edge
The taste of fear is in my heart and in my head
I've never seen a power so strong
Nor silver moon, just like a medal being hung
Feel your touch, your brand of fire
And your magic weave is more than I require
I've never seen this place beyond
I live in this world, yes, I know where I belong
Time has no respect for man's vanity
We hold the keys, we are the caretakers of insanity
We've been down this road before
Learned the lesson, on the surface it's been scored
One step away – away form you
One step away – away form you
Your many faces, I can't trust
I'll walk alone, I'll take my chances, won't be pushed
You promise all the things I need
I'd have to change my ways and all that I believe
Feel your touch, your brand of fire
And your magic weave is more than I require
I've never seen this place beyond
I live in this world, yes, I know where I belong
One step away – away form you
One step away – away form you
5. It Must Have Been Love
Rainy day, stormy night
She couldn't stay, it wasn't right
She never cried, she's very strong
I always tried when it went wrong
It's nothing new, when you lose
But getting through's no pleasure cruise
She never lied, I heard them say
She hit the slide and fell away
Well, it must have been love
That let her down
It must have been love
Pushed her around
Looking for love
She never found
Must have been love
Must have been love
Must have been love
She spends her time on an endless search
And it's a crime, keeps getting hurt
She never learns, takes it day by day
Then she gets burned and turned away
It must have been love
That let her down
It must have been love
Pushed her around and around
Looking for love
She never found
Must have been love
Must have been love
She never learns
Takes it day by day
Then she gets burned
And turned away
It must have been love
That let her down
It must have been love
Pushed her around and around
Looking for love
She never found
Must have been love
Must have been love
Must have been love
6. Different Worlds
On narrow streets old men lie, in the doorway sleeping
While working girls comb their hair, see the young men peeping
Different worlds, only a walk across the street
Different worlds, you never know what you might meet
No stain sheets on your bed tonight, how you feeling?
While running feet always disappear from sirens screaming
Different worlds, only a walk across the street
Different worlds, you never know what you might meet
Some of us take what we want
Some of us take what we need
Some of us break, some of us bleed
Where velvet gloves and your diamond rings lose their meaning
For those we love, if they really care, keep on dreaming
Different worlds, only a walk across the street
Different worlds, you never know what you might meet
Some of us take what we want
Some of us take what we need
Some of us break, some of us bleed
Some of us take what we want
Some of us take what we need
Some of us break, some of us bleed
Different worlds
Only a walk across the street
Different worlds
You never know what you might meet
Some of us take what we want
Some of us take what we need
Some of us break, some of us bleed
7. Pray For The Day
Pray for the day, this city's wall
Concrete for chains, will crumble and fall, pray for the day
On top of the world, nothing breaks in
Cross after cross, they have to dig in, where to begin
Remember at the border
Where the blood ran like water
Murdered for escaping
While the world looked on shaking
On top of the world, nothing breaks in
Cross after cross, they have to dig in, where to begin
And they crowned you with pain and emptied your head
Your rescuers came and left you for dead, now it has to be said
Remember at the border
Where the blood ran like water
Murdered for escaping
While the world looked on shaking
And all across that land...
Keys of freedom jammed...
Remember at the border
Where the blood ran like water
Murdered for escaping
While the world looked on shaking
Pray for the day, this city's wall
Concrete for chains, will crumble and fall
Pray for the day
8. Don't Wake The Lion (Too Old To Die Young)
It was the day that war broke out, everyone seemed excited
While young men boasted and talked of great times
Dark clouds gathered on the maginot line
Sisters and fathers, mothers and sons
All said goodbye, it seemed so much fun
We'll be finished by christmas, back home by the fire
Perish the distance, the bombs and the wire
Don't wake the lion
Don't wake the lion
Don't wake the lion
There's a firework show tonight, everyone's been invited
There's mud on faces with frightened white eyes
And some won't make it through the thunderous noise
Powerful and angry, answer the guns
All through the night, relief never comes
It's a criminal deception, sets man against man
Indicting reflection, a devious plan
Don't wake the lion
Don't wake the lion
Don't wake the lion
Hear what they're saying, come the freeze
You'd better hold on tight
And while you're praying on your knees
Prepare to stand and fight
Someone keeps saying it's written in a book
So keep yourself in line
But you're betraying with every nervous look
That now it's killing time
And from the morning till the night, we try
They said it all would turn out right, but they lied
Yes, they lied
Too old to die young – too big to cry
Too old to die young – to say goodbye
Too old to die young – too big to cry, mama
Too old to die young – to say goodbye
Above the raging, evening sky
Will never be the same
While necks are straining those hidden eyes
Shoot out another flame
And from the morning till the night, we try
They said it all would turn out right, but they lied
Yes, they lied, lied
Too old to die young – too big to cry
Too old to die young – to say goodbye
Too old to die young – too big to cry, mama
Too old to die young – to say goodbye
While the angels sleep tonight, some of us will be hoping
That someone understands who started this fight
Thrown down on foreign shores, so far out of sight
Don't wake the lion
Don't wake the lion
It was the day that war broke out, everyone seemed excited
While young men boasted and talked of great times
Dark clouds gathered, it was a change for all time
Sisters and fathers, mothers and sons
All said goodbye, it seemed so much fun
We'll be finished by christmas, back home by the fire
Perish the distance, the bombs and the wire
Don't wake the lion
Don't wake the lion
Don't wake the lion
