Past Lives
An angel came to me last night
She saw me in a different light
She showed me things I thoughht I could be
Are not a million miles away
As surely as night follows day
It follows, Im a king not a slave
It is another case of dj vu
It seems to happen everyday
It all comes back to me whatever I do
Theres always been a price to pay
Past lives, past lives
You can never put the ghost to bed
Get the feeling that you live, forever she said
Past lives, past lives
Rub my stomach while I pat my head
Get the feeling in your mind
When youre out of your head
And to the eastern side of the bay
My shadow is sailing away
Treasure possessions and money to burn

Lying Still
She came thru the door round my place
She was not the same
I reached out my hand to touch her face
She turned her head away
Her words flew in empty circles
Reasons unexplained
I saw that her thoughts were somewhere else
We made love anyway
Lying still in your arms
And the tears came down
She cried her pain
And like the rain that draws a cloud across the sun
The tears flow on
She cried the pain she felt inside
As night touched the sky with moonglow
She opened up her heart
The tides of emotions ebb and flow
Washing us apart
We talked thru the night in whispers
As the silent city lay

Leaving Me Now
It seems true love is so rare
Seems all Ive known is deceit
Your laughter fills the air
Once more Im sensing defeat
And I suppose youre leaving me now
I was so sure now Im so full of doubt
And I suppose youll be leaving this place
Just like the smile you wiped from my face
This time
I always gave my best
Your memory serves you so badly
Some people kill for less
Yet Id still die for you gladly oh, so gladly
But I suppose its my turn now
To play a scene thats familiar somehow
I turn the page and you walk away
Not even love could bring you to stay
This time
Walk away
You dont need me

The Sleepwalkers
I wear my ray-bans, driving in the car
Even on a cloudy day
She always says man!, who dyou think you are?
cause she dont see it my way
We are all sleepwalkers
We only see the things we wanna see
Tunnel visions
And theres no end in sight
But after all weve been through
I know this much to be true
Though I dont think like you do
Dont you know that after all
All I really need is you
I have a game plan, but my love is in a jar
It dont come into play
She always says man!, no matter where we are,
Youre always miles away!
We are all sleepwalkers
We dont see nothing we dont wanna see
We dream in color

Lesson In Love
I'm not proud, I was wrong
and the truth is hard to take
I felt sure we had enough
but our love went overboard
lifeboat lies lost at sea
I've been trying to reach your shore
waves of doubt keep drowning me
All the dreams that we were building
we never fulfilled them
could be better, should be better
for lessons in love
For restless eyes egos burn
and the mold is hard to break
now we've waded in too deep
and love is overboard
heavy hearts token words
all the hopes I ever had
fade like footprints in the sand
All the homes that we were building
we never lived in

I Sleep On My Heart
The time has come for dreaming
Dont be tired, but I feel a need to sleep
Cause my life takes on you meaning
When I close my eyes and you reveal yourself to me
Thats our time, time for changes
A time for reason
Something only you can see
All my life I have waited
For a chance to give a love
Only you demand of me
Fame and success are poor relations
The more I get the less I need it
Happiness is an unknown sensation
My heart has a hunger and only you can feed it
Chorus
Come on in my dreams tonight
Show me where to start
Come on I need to shed some light
I want to sleep on my heart
In the past for protection

World Machine
Some folks try
To multiply
From sunrise to sunset
Leave behind
More of their kind
So no one will forget
But that aint where Im coming from - today
Those easy girls dont turn me on - anyway
I wanna know where my pride has gone
The partys over
Caught in a dream
Inside this world machine
Teachers teach
And preachers preach
Of spiritual evolution
But this big I am
From uncle sham
Just adds to my confusion
Ive seen his face, Ive heard his song - before
But I dont care what time hes on - anymore

Dont Bother Me
Dont come round here looking for my sympathy
Dont come round here looking for my prayers
You spent the eighties in a trance
Yeah you led us all on a merry dance
Now its sad to say that I dont care
You were always advocating power games
You were always gonna be a star
You made your money, had your fun
Made a video bout how its done
Aint put it in my vcr
So far
Dreams fall into disrepair
Theres a change in the air
Your lies
Will lead you to despair
Dont bother me
(castles in the sand slip through your hand)
Dont bother me - I dont give a damn
Dont bother me
(try to understand its in your hand)

Play Me
I must say youre really something else
The way youre tearing down my house
And I know youd never stoop so low
As to rebuild it somewhere else
You know how to play me
Everybody knows you can handle me
Play me
Nothing can compare with what Ive found today
It hasnt always been this good
I havent always loved you like I should
But its really something else
I love you like I never thought I could
You got to play me
Everybody knows I been woman handled
Play me
Nothing can compare with what Ive found today
Been out on my own
For too many years
You came not a day too soon - I was out of my mind
You swallowed my pride

Two Solitudes
I saw the longing in your eyes
But I failed to see the anguish
You so cleverly disguised
Your needs I clearly read
But I never knew your true intentions
They were better left unsaid
I brushed our tears aside
Thought I could wipe away the memory
But couldnt push that far inside
You came so full of regrets
Your body still remembers
What your mind learnt to forget
Love is lost Ive found
When trust breaks down
Now we meet those two imposters just the same
Always out of bounds
When love comes round
Dont even have the strength to share the blame
We ride the train of events
We never make our destination
