Hard To Please I couldn’t stand the way you looked at me last night The finest bar in town, you still put up a fight The waiter smelled too strong, the music was too loud, It didn’t take a lot for you to moan about Pre-Chorus 1: Sometimes I think you’re really out of your mind It’s so hard to take it Chorus: Can’t you see what you’re doing to me You’re really hard to please Best things are not good enough You’re really hard to please A holiday in the sun, I thought I got it right The water’s safe and clean there are no sharks in sight Your skin is burned because you knew it better Since our arrival you’ve felt under the weather Pre-Chorus 2: Food and drink are never to your liking Why don't you fake it Chorus: Can’t you see what you’re doing to me You’re really hard to please Best things are not good enough You’re really hard to please

After The Rain Strolling down across the pastures with the cool fall wind in my hair Days are slowly getting shorter but I am not aware Sometimes life gets out of control, like a roller coaster ups and downs You gotta face it with a smile, what’s lost can still be found Pre-Chorus: You’ll never find the reasons why Some things remain in the dark Chorus: Tears they come and go, laughter, heartache and pain Fear is soon to go, the sunshine’s drying the rain Your body’s precious like a temple, sacred and pure and full of joy Don’t let the world tear it down, it’s the most powerful thing Pre-Chorus: You’ll never find the reasons why Some things remain in the dark Chorus: Tears they come and go, laughter, heartache and pain Fear is soon to go, the sunshine’s drying the rain

Dance The Night Away Friday night time to go I gotta get outa here Work is done had enough I’m gonna grab me a beer What a week I’m a wreck I can’t wait to get home Fight my way through the crowds I need some time on my own Pre-Chorus: The time is right but I got nowhere to go Thank God I got my radio Put my favourite records on I'm gonna play them till the crack of dawn Chorus: Dance the night away, dance the night away (hey, hey) Dance the night away, dance the night away (baby) Dance the night away, dance the night away (hey, hey) Dance the night away, dance the night away Rock n roll drink in hands I shake my ass to the groove Watch me go spin around I got all the moves 5 a.m. sun is up and I’m still going strong with my tunes and my booze I can go on and on Pre-Chorus: The time is right but I got nowhere to go Thank God I got my radio Put my favourite records on I'm gonna play them till the crack of dawn Chorus: Dance the night away, dance the night away (hey, hey) Dance the night away, dance the night away (baby) Dance the night away, dance the night away (hey, hey) Dance the night away, dance the night away

Children Of The Street I know, you know, they call you queer or so Just because you got your hair dyed red The clothes, you wear, some people stop and stare How can you dare to go against the grain Pre-Chorus 1: They try to control your feelings and your thoughts Chorus: Children of the street, born to run Programmed to the bang of a loaded gun Taking on the world with hand on heart Hoping that society won’t tare you apart The way you speak how can you make ends meet You sound like you’re still stuck in fifth grade You think too much, no time for a gentle touch You got your vision and that’s all you need Pre-Chorus 2: Make sure you show them no feelings and no thoughts Chorus: Children of the street, born to run Programmed to the bang of a loaded gun Taking on the world with hand on heart Hoping that society won’t tare you apart Bridge: You're wrestling with the tides You might not get it right Threat to society You’re public enemy Pre-Chorus: Don’t let them control your feelings and your thoughts Chorus: Children of the street, born to run Programmed to the bang of a loaded gun Taking on the world with hand on heart Hoping that society won’t tare you apart

The Ballad Of Soldier Boy Soldier boy he took his lady by the hands and he promised to her solemnly he’d soon be back again She cried her heart out as she saw him off that day, with his picture on the mantelpiece she’d somehow find a way Chorus: Oh oh oh oh oh-pretty soldier boy Oh oh oh oh oh- pretty soldier boy Soldier boy was sent to some forsaken land fighting rebels in the burning heat of the deadly desert sand Her name was Lea and she took away his breath ever since he came and rescued her and saved her from her death Chorus: Oh oh oh oh oh-come back soldier boy Oh oh oh oh oh- come home soldier boy Her eyes pierced through him like a sabre in the dark enchanted by her beauty he opened up his heart they were making love next to the camp fire late at night when she stabbed a knife between his legs to rid him of his pride Chorus: Oh oh oh oh oh-lovely soldier boy Oh oh oh oh oh- bloody soldier boy

On Fire 04:34
On fire The drums are pounding, the crowd is going wild guitars are screeching, I feel like a crazy child I’m sweating hard my pulse is racing the music makes me forget all the girls I’m chasing Pre-Chorus: I’ve waited so long for this moment to arrive We’re gonna rock all night until we drop like flies Chorus: My heart is dancing (my heart is dancing) to the beat of the drums (to the beat of the drums) My heart is dancing (my heart is dancing) to the beat of the drums (to the beat of the drums) Let the rhythm lift you higher watch out ‘cause these drums are on fire My body’s swaying, I’ve never felt so alive Neither booze nor drugs can provide me with so much drive My dance moves suck but I don’t really care I’m stompin’ my feet my hand is punching the air Pre-Chorus: I’ve waited so long for this moment to arrive We’re gonna rock all night until we drop like flies Chorus: My heart is dancing (my heart is dancing) to the beat of the drums (to the beat of the drums) My heart is dancing (my heart is dancing) to the beat of the drums (to the beat of the drums) Let the rhythm lift you higher watch out ‘cause these drums are on fire

Evening Train Temperature’s rising, it’s hard to breath Streets of the city are soaked with sweat Too many problems, too much too bare I leave this furnace with no regrets Pre-Chorus: A whisper into my ear, made my decision clear My mind’s made up this time I’m gonna leave this life behind Chorus: Leave this city on an evening train Don’t know if I’m coming back again Leave this town I couldn’t call my home Off to find a place where I belong Verse 2: This concrete jungle, a maze of steel All those illusion seem so real A lonesome creature, most everyday though thousand people always cross your way Pre-Chorus 2: I’ve got to get away Too many times I’ve been lead astray I gotta open up my mind This world has left me blind Chorus: Leave this city on an evening train Don’t know if I’m coming back again Leave this town I couldn’t call my home Off to find a place where I belong Bridge: This world is making me crazy It’s slowly driving me mad I need some new inspiration Something that I never had

Wasted Time 04:46
Wasted Time The make up around my eyes can’t hide away the tears I’ve cried This hurt is so hard to take I never knew what had been at stake Pre-Chorus: The moment we parted, I turned my head I looked into your eyes and I saw red Chorus: The dream is over, was it just wasted time It’s time to turn another page The dream is over, I just have to draw that line It’s time to face another day Verse 2: You’re not the one I fell for, who left me flowers outside the door Many years have changed both you and me, thank God I realised it wasn’t meant to be Pre-Chorus: The moment we parted, I turned my head I looked into your eyes and I saw red Chorus: The dream is over, was it just wasted time It’s time to turn another page The dream is over, I just have to draw that line It’s time to face another day

Someone To Call Take a breath and just relax, have a break and just pull back That’s the moment you’ve been waiting for Light a candle a glass of wine, there’s no hurry you’ve got time No more troubles of this world no more Chorus: Sometimes it’s hard to be strong (You don’t know where you belong) Left in this world all alone (With just one wish to go home) But there’s a way that I found (To lift you up off the ground) Someone is sitting at home Waiting for someone to call Another day is at an end, you don’t quite seem to understand What’s the point in getting up at all Friends they come and go at will, you’re the one who pays the bills Everyone just makes you feel so small Chorus: Sometimes it’s hard to be strong (You don’t know where you belong) Left in this world all alone (With just one wish to go home) But there’s a way that I found (To lift you up off the ground) Someone is sitting at home Waiting for someone to call
