Break Through The Barrier
(a. cymone, g. cole)
Producer: andre cymone
Albums: days of thunder soundtrack
Look for empty roads to travel
And grab some peace of mind
When my life seems to unravel
Strength from you Ill find
Like the ocean and the sunshine
Ill keep trying till youre all mine
Till the moment is right
I wont give up the fight
Ill keep pushing till I break through the barrier
Like a phoenix arises
Aint no mountain too high
Ill keep pushing till I break through the barrier
Like the eyes of total strangers
Our future is unknown
In a world of hidden danger
Dont want to be all alone
Like a rainbow and the starlight

The collected recordings (94)
Grammy award: best rock vocal performance, female (88)
The lights are on but youre not home
Your mind is not your own
Your body sweats, your body shakes
Another kiss is what it takes
You cant eat, you cant sleep
Theres no doubt youre in deep
Your throat is tight, you cant breathe
Another kiss is all you need
You like to think that youre immune to the stuff, oh yeah
Its closer to the truth, you know
Youre gonna have to face it
You might as well face it, youre addicted to love
You see the signs but you cant read
Youre running at a different speed
Your heart beats at double time

Lyrics to the version on the collected recordings - 60s to 90s
Shes got legs, knows how to use them
She never begs, knows how to choose them
Shes holdin leg wonderin how to feel them
Once that you get them, you can never lose them
Oh shes so fine and you got to have her
Yeah, you got it right
Shes got hair down to her fanny
Shes kinda jet set, try undo her panties
When she starts the dancin, knows what to do
Everybody comes to see, comes to see her do it
Shes so fine, and you got to have her

Shes got legs, knows how to use them
She never begs, knows how to choose them

Johnny And Mary
Johnny's always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Knows he tires easily
Johnny thinks the world would be right
If it could find truth for him
Mary says he changes his mind
More than a woman
But she made her bet
Even though the chance was slim
Johnny says he's willing to learn it
When he decides he's a fool
Johnny says he'll live anywhere
When he has time to
Mary combs her hair
Says she should be used to it
Mary always hedges her bets
She never knows what to think

Not Enough Romance
Shouldve never made eye contact
Shouldve been a heart of stone
When you stopped me to say hello
Wouldve been twice as easy
To just say no
Cause I dont wanna lose at love again
But as a couple we were quite handsome
And the moon was out that night
So we let our hearts go dancing
If that thing is missing in my life
Chorus
Theres not enough romance in this world
Theres not enough romance in this world
Theres too many people thinking only of themselves
You gotta give love for its return
Wanna sing about new lovers
Stand up against the odds
Nothing can change a thing that strong
And myself I know my emotions
I got my love to share

B-side of the I dont wanna lose you uk single
B-side of the steamy windows german single
B-side of the look me in the heart us/oz single
You think youve done it all but Id like to make a bet
Theres so much more up ahead, you aint seen nothing yet
Its gonna take a little time before the rain dies down
Till the storm is over youve got to stand your ground
Youve got to be stronger than the wind
Got to be stronger
Stronger than the wind, its gonna take a little longer
Stronger than the wind
You know it could be worse, at least youre not alone
Theres a million billion souls who havent even got a home
They havent any bills to pay and no letters to send
They just wait for judgement day, at least you got a friend
Come on be stronger than the wind
Got to be stronger

Out of the ruins
Out from the wreckage
Can't make the same mistake this time
We are the children
The last generation
We are the ones they left behind
And i wonder when we are ever gonna change it
Living under the fear till nothing else remains
We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the thunderdome
Looking for something we can rely on
There's got to be something better out there
Love and compassion, their day is coming

Great Spirits
When the earth was young
and the air was sweet
And the mountains kissed the sky
In the great beyond, with its many paths
Man and nature lived side by side
In this wilderness of danger and beauty
Lived three brothers, bonded by love
Their hearts full of joy
they ask now for guidance
Reaching out to the skies up above
Great Spirits of all who lived before
Take our hands and lead us
Fill our hearts and souls
with all you know
Show us that in your eyes
we are all the same
Brothers to each other
In this world we remain truly
brothers all the same
Give us wisdom to pass to each other
