Still I'm Sad: (Paul Smith, Jim McCarty) See the stars come falling down from the sky Gently passing they kiss your tear drops dry See the wind come softly blow your hair from your face And the rain comes falling down in its crazy way Still I'm sad For myself my tears just fall in the dust As I search in the night and find they're lost See the wind come gently blow time into my heart And the rain comes falling down while we're apart Still I'm sad Still I'm sad See the stars come falling down from the sky Gently passing they kiss your tear drops dry See the wind come softly blow your hair from your face And the rain will come falling down in its crazy, crazy way Oh, oh, oh Still I'm sad Still I'm sad |

Stargazer: (Dio, Blackmore) High noon Oh I'd sell my soul for water Nine years' worth Of breakin' my back There's no sun in the shadow of the wizard See how he glides Why he's lighter than air Oh I see his face Where is your star Is it far, Is it far, is it far When do we leave I believe, yes, I believe In the heat and the rain With whips and chains Just to see him fly So many die We built a tower of stone With our flesh and bone Just to see him fly Don't know why Now where do we go Hot wind moving fast across the desert We feel that our time has arrived The world spins while we put his wing together A tower of stone to take him straight to the sky Oh I see his face Where is your star It is far, is it far, is it far When do we leave, yeah I believe, I believe In the heat and the rain With whips and chains Just to see him fly So many die All eyes see the figure of the wizard As he climbs to the top of the world No sound as he falls instead of rising Time standing still Then there's blood on the sand Oh I see his face Where was your star Was it far, was it far When did we leave We believe, we believe, we believe In the heat and rain With whips and chains To see him fly So many die We built a tower of stone With out flesh and bone To see him fly But why, it don't rain With all our chains, Did so many die Just to see him fly Look at my flesh and bone Now look, look, look, look Look at this tower of stone I see a rainbow rising Look there on the horizon And I'm coming home Coming home, I'm coming home Time is standing still He gave me back my will Oh, oh, oh, oh Going home I'm going home My eyes are bleeding And my heart is weeping We still hope, we still hope, oh Take me back He gave me back my will Oh, oh, oh, oh Going home I'm going home My eyes are bleeding And my heart is weeping We still hope, we still hope, oh Take me back, take me back Back to my home, oh, oh... |

Rainbow Eyes: She's been gone since yesterday Oh I didn't care Never cared for yesterdays Fancies in the air No sighs or mysteries She lay golden in the sun No broken harmonies But I've lost my way She had rainbow eyes Rainbow eyes Rainbow eyes Love should be a simple blend A whispering on the shore No clever words you can't defend They lead to never more No sighs or mysteries She lay golden in the sun No broken harmonies But I've lost my way She had rainbow eyes Rainbow eyes Rainbow eyes Summer nights are colder now They've taken down the fair And all the lights have died somehow Or were they ever there No sighs or mysteries She lay golden in the sun No broken harmonies But I've lost my way She had rainbow eyes Uuuuh, uuh |

Since You Been Gone: (Ballard) I get the same old dreams same time everynight Fall to the ground and I wake up So I get out of bed, put on my shoes and in my head Thoughts fly back to the breakup These four wall are closing in Look at the fix you put me in Since you been gone Since you been gone I'm out of my head can't take it Could I be wrong But since you been gone You cast your spell so break it Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Since you been gone So in the night I stand beneath the backstreet light I read the words that you sent to me I can take the afternoon, the night time comes around too soon You can't know what you mean to me Your poison letter, your telegram Just goes to show you don't give a damn Since you been gone Since you been gone I'm out of my head can't take it Could I be wrong But since you been gone You cast your spell so break it Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Since you been gone If you will come back Baby, you know you'll never do wrong Since you been gone Since you been gone I'm out of my head can't take it Could I be wrong But since you been gone You cast your spell so break it Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Ever since you been gone Since you been gone Since you been gone I'm out of my head can't take it Since you been gone Since you been gone I'm out of my head can't take it |

Makin' Love: I was always on the wilder side Chasing love away Love was something for romantic fools Just a game how to play How can I deny my heart When my love is blind I got no choice I've gone too far I lose my mind When we're makin' love When we're makin' love When I look into your magic eyes The mirror of my love I like to see you Smiling back at me It makes me feel so good Need to keep you satisfied The only way I know And all the cares I cannot hide Will never show When we're makin' love Woh makin' love Don't believe that I'm a liar But I can't get enough Never knew I could be higher Just by makin' love How can I deny my heart When my love is blind I got no choice I've gone too far I lose my mind When we're makin' love When we're makin' love Don't believe that I'm a liar But I can't get enough Never knew I could be higher Just by makin' love Oh oh oh yeah oh makin' love Oh makin' love Makin' love Coming to you Makin' love With nothing to do Makin' love Makin' love Makin' love Makin' love |

Danger Zone: Shaking off the tresholds of a long forgotten dream And you just can't make it last Coaching paradise on a personal line But you get fired to fast And you lie, memories drifting by Love don't make it on those pin-striped nights When you're looking through someone's disguise You can't make it alone, so you gotta make a move But you're looking at nobody's eyes Well that's love, or maybe love come and go Looking for love is a danger zone Love don't go begging in the danger zone You won't get nothing from the danger zone Tales that you tell from the stories that you'll hear And you'll get what you can while you may Don't understand when you're looking for a dame But it's only a heartbreak away And you'll learn, faking has no return No way when you're feeling that way Will your feet get caught up in the crowd And the song that you sing is too soft to be heard But your speakers are way too loud Like the pain, loving is no big game Looking for love is a danger zone No don't go living in the danger zone You won't get nothing from the danger zone Don't take no chances in the danger zone Love don't go begging in the danger zone No don't go living in the danger zone You won't get nothing from the danger zone Don't take no chances in the danger zone Love don't go begging in the danger zone |

Eyes of Fire: (Turner, Blackmore, Rondinelli) Hungry and wild she was born to the night A demon, a daughter or madness One look from her eyes could burn you alive... Drown you in oceans of sadness Oh - even the deadly shades of night Won`t let me hide...from her eyes of fire Face in the mirror we meet eye to eye Passions of eternal fire Desperately wanting and out of control Dancing on winds of desire Oh - even the deadly shades of night Won`t let me hide...from her eyes of fire Curtain of darkness, screams of delight Taunts me with her sirens calling... I got to be strong but I can`t hang on Into the flames I am falling... Oh - even the deadly shades of night Won`t let me hide (no, no, no, no) from her eyes of fire... She keeps burning... She keeps burning me, burning me, burning me, burning me down Eyes of fire |

Stone Cold: Every night I have the same old dream 'bout you and me and what's in between So many changes, so many lies Try to run, try to hick From everything that I feel inside But I can't escape you, or your frozen eyes... Searching in the darkness Fading out of sight Love was here and gone like a thief in the night... Stone Cold... And I knew you so well Stone Cold Can't break away from your spell Another dark and empty night It was wrong I wanna make it night But you are so distant, so far away Your words like ice fall on the ground breaking the silence without a sound Oh familiar strangers, with nothing to say Searching in the darkness Fading out of sight Love was here and gone like a thief in the night Stone Cold... And I thought I knew you so well... Stone Cold... I can't break away from your spell... You leave me Stone Cold Searching in the darkness Fading out of sight Love was here and like a thief in the night Stone Cold... And I thought I knew you so well You Stone Cold... yeah I can't break away from your spell You Stone Cold... baby I thought I knew you so well You're Stone cold... Ice cold... Can't break away from your spell (You put me in the deep freeze) (Oh baby don't you leave me) (Stone... Cold, your leavin' me cold) Stone Cold... I thought I knew you so well Stone Cold... Can't break away from your spell |

Fire Dance: (Turner, Blackmore, Glover, Rosenthal) Visions of artemis Goddess of the moonlight The spell remains unbroken The lost and wrong now will begin the rite of the fire dance Standing strong and steady Waiting for the right sign The helix has risen Now we have no choice but to drink the wine For now is the time of the fire dance fire dance Black hearted woman Creature of the deep night darkness in your soul I'm hungry and searching to find the light Now you're insight You have control I am in your power The bell has tolled I know the hour is near As I burn with fear of the fire dance fire dance Gypsy Queen you are my desire You are real oh that inspires me you own my destiny dharuba's voice the wind is calling I have no choice For I am falling again and again Oh Again into the flames of the fire dance oh yes I am oh oh fire dance fire dance fire dance |
