Into the Darkness

I still remember everything you told me
You used to look me in the eye and hold me
We were cold but we were never lonely
Things are different now, we're getting older
I never thought time would go by so quickly
We got this far but it was never easy
All you had to do was call me anytime
I'd always keep you in my mind
My baby blue!
Who's going to love you like I do?
When you're gone
Into the darkness
Do you remember everything you told me?
When we were riding on that road to nowhere
Spent that summer waiting for that concert
But by the time we got there it was over
I never thought time would go by so quickly
I really hope you find the time to visit
Every time I walk past by your parents' house
I'll stop and think about you for a while
My baby blue!
Who's going to love you like I do?
When you're gone
Into the darkness
I'll remember you this way
I'll remember you this way
My baby blue!
Who's going to love you like I do?
When you're gone
Into the darkness

Hey!

My old friend
You've been running all your life
But now you're here again
The things you said
Never made a lot of sense
But what does anyway?
Oh, turn on the lights, honey
Hey!
Just a minute darling, wait
Before you go tonight
I just want to say hello again
Things, back then
Were always getting out of hand
But now we understand
Well, it's OK
If you find yourself alone
And on the road again
Oh, turn on the lights, honey
Hey!
Just a minute darling, wait
Before you go tonight
I just want to say hello again
And through the thin and thick of it
You know I'll be your friend
Somehow we'll stick together
From here until forever
Hey!
Just a minute darling, wait
Before you go tonight
I just want to say hello again

Lovely!
Yeah, you're lovely!
Yeah, you're lovely, lovely
Oh, but you're mean
Oh baby, baby come on, baby what you're doing to me?
I'm going crazy by the rhythm of your high heels
Talk to me
Come on and dance with me
I want to take you home, baby I want you to hear
Your favorite record playing on my record machine
Talk to me
Come on and dance with me
I bet they've told you
That you're lovely!
Yeah, you're lovely!
Yeah, you're lovely, lovely
Oh, but you're mean
Your lips are murder and your eyes are like two killing machines
I turn around, baby it's getting harder to breath
Talk to me
Come on and dance with me
Well it's the movement of your skirt girl, making me weak
You hypnotize me when I see you shaking that thing
Talk to me
Come on and dance with me
Haven't they told you?
That you're lovely!
Yeah, you're lovely!
Yeah, you're lovely, lovely
Oh, but you're mean
All those boys you know
Just won't let you go
Come on and dance with me
Haven't they told you?
That you're lovely!
Yeah, you're lovely!
Yeah, you're lovely, lovely
Oh, but you're, yes you're so mean

Rainy Days
02:43
|
|||
|
Radio, television
Taking silly pictures
In the middle of the night
Typing letters
That you'll never send
It's just another way to pass the time
Love and all that nonsense
Life just keeps on passing
Lies you tell someone
Just to get along
Broken promises
And stolen feelings
That you use to write a song
When you're all alone
Rainy days
When you watch the world go by
On and on again
Time just keeps on ticking
Words and thoughts are slipping by
And never coming back
Loss and loneliness
Fear and hopelessness
Things that never cross my mind
Love and all that nonsense
Life just keeps on passing
Lies you tell yourself
When there's nothing left
Lying on the ground
Waiting for the one
Someone, anyone
That might fall in love
Rainy days
When you watch the world go by
On and on again
People and places to go
Making up reasons that nobody, nobody knows
Rainy days
When you watch the world go by
On and on again

In The Sun
03:00
|

I could tell ever since the day we met
That you were playing hard to get
And everything you own
Is not enough to keep you home
Oh, no! You know it's not like that at all
I mean, you think you've got it all
But in the end, my friend
There's so much more
In the sun (Oh, for what it's worth)
It's always better in the sun (It couldn't get much worse)
But you steal and you lie
And you're changing your mind again
Everything's fine 'til that look in your face that says
Here we go again!
I sit and watch you coming down
In flames, and I just want to land
And stay forever in the sun
(What's the use if you never see the light?)
And so (Oh, boy)
You want the truth and nothing more (c'mon, c'mon)
But you don't listen to that voice (c'mon, c'mon)
Inside your head that tells you (c'mon, c'mon)
What you give is what you get
But you! You never understood a word I said
You want to rule the world instead
So go ahead!
Go get your right before there's nothing left!
In the sun (Oh, for what it's worth)
It's always better in the sun (It couldn't get much worse)
But you steal and you lie
And you're changing your mind again
Everything's fine 'til that look in your face that says
Here we go again!
I sit and watch you coming down
In flames, and I just want to land
And stay forever in the sun
(Here we go again!)
I take you where you want to go
But all this you don't want to know (you're such a fool)
Of course it's always about you
And all I ever wanted was to spend my time with you

Like a Rainbow
02:11
|

|
She's like a rainbow
Technicolor, colorblind
A rainbow
Shooting colors at the sky
And I, want to see her
I lose my mind
I want her on and on
On and on
On and on she goes
Just like a rainbow
Running wild in my
Imagination
Painting pictures in my mind
And I, want to see her
I just can't hide
I want her on and on
On and on
On and on she comes and goes
Again
Listen, you don't have to be afraid
And if you're feeling lonely
I'll be here until the morning
Day by day
And every word that we said
Will get blown like the rain
Till she lifts up her hands to the sky
Just like a rainbow
Technicolor, colorblind
A rainbow
Shooting colors at the sky
And I, want to see her
I lose my mind
I want her on and on
On and on
On and on she comes and goes
Again
Listen, you don't have to be afraid
And if you're feeling lonely
I'll be here until the morning
Day by day
And every word that we said
Will get blown like the rain
Till she lifts up her hands to the sky
Just like a rainbow

Want You
02:14
|

Searching for you
Searching…
Don't you worry, love
I will find you
Waiting, drinking
In this crowded bar downtown
Where everybody looks for something…
Sometimes, baby
Maybe, lately I don't know
What's the matter
Hopeless, restless
In the dark and there she goes
The center of attention
I saw the light
I realized
I need your love
And I want you
Come and get me
Take me, shake me
Wake me up
Come and find me
Couldn't stand to
See you with some other guy
When you're my one and only
I saw the light
I realized
I need your love
And I want you

The City
02:42
|

|
Na na, singing on the riverside
On the northern part of the city
Where the hustlers hustle every night
And all the girls always look so pretty
Oh, come on!
Oh, come on!
Bang! Bang! Why d'you want to start a fight?
When we're all trying just to make a living
All the people coming in and out
Can you hear me now? Listen! Listen!
Oh, come on!
Let me take you down
To the place where I was born
Where who knows?
You might just find what you've been looking for
You know everything there is to know
But in your eyes you know something's missing
Give me just a bit of rock and roll
Can you hear me now? Listen! Listen!
Oh, come on!
Let me take you down
To the place where I was born
Where, who knows?
You might just find what you've been looking for
Na na, singing on the riverside
On the northern part of the city
Where the hustlers hustle every night
And all the girls always look so pretty
Oh, come on!
Oh, come on!

Hard Folk
02:35

I was so high I wonder how I managed to recognize you
You were so young and I was still a couple of years behind you
I often wonder what it is that makes the world go round
But stay with me and we'll figure out
Hold my hand, let's take a walk
Open up your heart and let me step inside
I don't remember where I've been, but I know where I want to go
The sun is up, the sky is clear, I've never felt this way before
I sit beside the window and watch the wheels go round and round
But I'm with you so it's alright
Hold my hand, let's take a walk
Open up your heart and let me step inside
I often wonder what it is that makes the world go round
But stay with me and we'll figure out

She Says Goodbye
02:31
|
|||
|
The sound of morning
Wakes you up into the sun
You feel like falling down
But you never hit the ground
Silence screams or so it seems
It's all so quiet when she's gone
This kind of thing, this kind of thing
I guess it happens all the time
It's so cold
The sky is gray and overcast
You're on your own
With all the voices in your mind
And everything you've said and done
All those words don't matter now
She's on her way, she's on the run
She's leaving everything behind
She says goodbye
She says goodbye
Someone to hold her tight!
Someone to kiss goodnight!
But you won't ever see her face again
Your mind aches
You're on a maze with no way out
And in the end
You find you're right back at the start
There's not a lot that can be done
All those words don't matter now
She's on her way, she's on the run
And she's never looking back
She says goodbye
She says goodbye
Someone to hold her tight!
Someone to kiss goodnight!
But you won't ever see her face again

excitement that this four-piece band produce live: vocal harmonies and loud, bright guitars courtesy of Rolph Zehntner and Adrian Romero, Edgar Santiesteban’s thumping bass and those killer drums -
