You're taking over my soul You want control of it all You've been pushing into the heart of me Someone's got to tell you, someone's got to make you see That is why I'm saying Who's taking over, who's taking over? Who's taking over, who's taking over? You're taking over the universe Your crossing the line between what's good and what's worse You've been pushing and shoving your way to the top Someone's got to tell you, someone's got to make you stop That is why I'm saying Who's taking over, who's taking over? Who's taking over, who's taking over? I can only keep telling you Who else can make you see? There's no point in pushing and shoving Your way through me That is why I'm saying Who's taking over, who's taking over? Who's taking over, who's taking over? Who's taking over?

So much more we could do in a lifetime So much fire until it fades away So much life if we could only seize it And live a decade in a day Salting time and dreams away We’re saving them for another day All the while life drains away And precious time Because we’re going in the wrong direction Working overtime again There’s no time left for reflection It don’t have to be this way Working hard every day We need more time for love Go downtown and don’t forget the code Go downstairs and find your place to play Go down on your latest anaesthesia And waste a decade in a day Playing out your fantasy Reality drifts further away If you wait for love to come your way You’ll be waiting forever Because you’re going in the wrong direction Party overtime again There’s no time left for reflection It don’t have to be this tight Playing hard every night We need more love for time If I could savour every moment Then I could live my life for sure Procrastination is the torment And I don’t believe that I can find the cure Waiting here for just another lifetime Waiting for someone to turn the page Waiting to begin another chapter And find a decade in a day No one else can live your day It’s only yours to give away All the while time drains away While you’re waiting for love But you’re going in the wrong direction Working overtime again No time left for reflection It don’t have to be this way Working hard every day We need more time for love

I lie here every morning ‘bout a quarter to five Counting down the hours, waiting for the moment to arrive That’s when your loving light turns to gold I listen to the music blowing ‘cross the bay The city lost in night life, except us we are here to stay That’s when your loving light turns to gold Waiting through the darkest times Till the first gleam of dawn when your love light shines Turn to gold, turn to gold, never growing old, turn to gold Somehow something happens mysteriously I just have to hope that it will happen every morning to me That’s when your loving light turns to gold So much love and patience that I have to find Sometimes I start to wonder if our love is just a figment of my mind But then your loving light turns to gold So many have passed me by You knocked on my door, I don’t dare ask why Turn to gold, turn to gold, never bought and sold, turn to gold So much love have I found in your arms That I never found before I could live for a thousand years or more Living only for these moments at the break of day I lie here every morning, a quarter to five Staring at the ceiling, waiting for the moment to arrive That’s when your loving light turns to gold Waiting through the evening, waiting through the day Waiting through the night time, morning time celebrate Turn to gold, turn to gold, never growing old, turn to gold, turn to gold, turn to gold, gold

I remember what my father used to tell me When I had just come into this world "Every land I have combed as I've tried to find a home in my life, in my life" I don't look for trouble But it finds me all the same How many times I've been burned, I have never learned this lesson in my life You can never get home that way You can try No, no, never You can never get home that way It's the loneliest trail I remember how my brother used to shout Every night when he would fall asleep "For so many years and through so many tears I'm still wandering, wandering" I don't look for pleasure But sometimes it finds me just the same The less I desire, the less I require in my life, in my life You can never get home that way You can try No, no, never You can never get home that way It's the loneliest trail I remember the way it felt when I was seventeen But somehow I have never learned to tell the fat years from the lean I can never tell when life is good and when life is in between I can never leave well enough alone when enough is all I need And I never will be free from this longing And I never can tell the people who are wronging me If I ever find the place that I belong in, life can begin I don’t look for temptation But sometimes it finds me anyway How many times I've been burned, I have never learned this lesson in my life until now You can never get home that way You can try No, no, never You can never get home that way It's the loneliest trail I’ve learned my lesson I’ve learned my lesson Call it, call it, call it, call it pain

It’s so easy to live with the limits of love As far away as the Northern lights and nearly as cold Once we travelled beyond the limits of love Far away, under the Northern lights, but love grew old Old, older than the stars Older than the memories we bring to the limits of love Older than each night That melts away, that floats away Into the shelter, the shelter of each dawn The safety only love can bring It’s so easy to live with the limits of love I never knew passion could die away but leave so much untold Once we travelled beyond the limits of love Never sure if love was here to stay, but love grows old Old, older than the stars Older than the fears that we bring to the limits of love Older than our dreams Dreams of ecstasy, dreams of desire Oh but we turn as years go by To the safety only love can bring It’s so easy to live with the limits of love

So many days of ancient bones I had no time to call my own Wait for the message on the telephone The one that says ‘I’m never coming home’ As soon as I can I’ll fly away I don’t think I’ll ever come back someday You’ve had me as your fetch and bring for far too long You were lying in your bedroom Telling me what tender flesh to bring You were trying out your new broom Suffer as the little children sing But as the days of my life go by Every day another sign that I have to fly away You told me all the reasons for ‘Everyone’s different, but everyone’s a whore No one else but you and I Could ever understand the reason why’ You told me I’m indispensable To keep our horizons un-fence-able But I think it’s been indefensible for far too long You were lying when you told me That the same thing happens every day I was crying, you consoled me With the words only a guilty tongue could say But every day of my life, I’m sinking Even swallowing your honey can’t stop me thinking any more Now it’s too many tears too late When the moment came, I didn’t hesitate I have to say that you taught me well The blade and the shovel and the carousel The ancient bones I’ll leave behind The ancient bones for someone else to find The ancient bones been buried there for far too long You were lying in the basement When we said our last farewells Now I’ve shown you what that phrase meant ‘Ancient bones’ will suit you well And as the days of your life fade away No matter what you do, in the end we all fly away

Sitting here, waiting for the message on the radio I can’t go until I get the word from the man It’s a meltdown world and I'm sitting with my finger on the button And I’m cheap and I’m lazy and I think I’m going to jump the gun And I won’t see when the sky turns calico And I don’t care, oh no It’s so hot down here that even the water is burning It’s so hot down here, I believe that the world has stopped turning It’s so hot down here, it’s so hot down here It’s so hot down here, it’s so hot down here There might as well be no one in the world but me Who needs company when you’re living under the heatwave It’s a liquid world and I’m slipping down the throat of humanity And I’m loose and I’m easy and I think I’m going to jump the gun And I won’t see when the sky turns calico And I don’t care, oh no It’s so hot down here that even the water is burning It’s so hot down here, I believe that the world has stopped turning It’s so hot down here, it’s so hot down here It’s so hot down here, it’s so hot down here It’s so hot down here, it’s so hot down here It’s so hot down here, it’s so hot down here And I won’t see if the sky turns calico And I don’t care, oh no It’s so hot down here that even the water is burning It’s so hot down here, I believe that the world has stopped turning It’s so hot down here, it’s so hot down here It’s so hot down here, it’s so hot down here It’s so hot down here, it’s so hot down here It’s so hot down here, it’s so hot down here

When I fall into your loving arms There's a kind of understanding There's a message that there is so much love More than we hoped to find When I look into your loving eyes There is nothing that I have to say You know just how to bring out my love Until we both can Fly across the Northern sky Through the heaven of the night Till we reach the land of our dreams There is so much love there With the cool wind in our hair Everything is just as it seems When I listen to you breathe at night I know these feelings will last more than overnight Since the day you came into my life Every day is new There is nothing I am weary of There is nothing that I lack in love Only you can see so far inside my mind And show me how to Fly across the Northern sky Through the heaven of the night Till we reach the land of our dreams There is so much love there With the cool wind in our hair Everything is just as it seems Ooh, it's so enlightening, It's so much more than love Still, it feels so frightening, I am wary of But it’s so inviting in your glow So much more than love, I know When I fall into your loving arms There's a message that there is so much love More than we thought we’d find There is nothing more for me to say As long as I can feel this way All you ever have to do is stay And show me how to Fly across the Northern sky Through the heaven of the night Till we reach the land of our dreams There is so much love there With the cool wind in our hair Everything is just as it seems

We were on our way Leaving everything behind So much more to say But we had the future on our minds Was the vision clear? Was the picture really righteous on the page? No, we felt no fear No trepidation and no rage But we faltered Still we tried to keep the promise Conditions altered Until we fall down, fall down And we got sidetracked in time Alone among the millions, you could read my mind But we got sidetracked in time The only explanation I can find Now we’re all alone This isn’t what we thought we’d planned Trapped behind a stone Trying to find a way back to where we used to stand As the vision fades You have to ask yourself, was it all illusion It was a precision raid But it ended up in nothing but confusion And we faltered Still we tried to keep the promise Conditions altered Until we fall down, fall down And we got sidetracked in time Alone among the millions, you could read my mind But we got sidetracked in time The only explanation I can find So we’re stuck with a dream The product of our own invention There’s not much more that I can scream We’ve said it all, leaving only good intentions Don’t know where we went wrong Perhaps we started from the wrong contention The dream lingers on There ain’t no cure, there’s only prevention But remember How we tried to keep the promise Fan the embers Until we fall down, fall down And we got sidetracked in time Alone among the millions, you could read my mind But we got sidetracked in time The only explanation I can find It was the only destination that we had in our minds

Sweet July, I remember the day we met, it was Sweet July, loving that I can’t forget You and I, we only had a month of Summer Sweet July, will you ever come again? Sweet July, I remember the love we made Afternoons, lying in the cool, dark shade I’m so tired, tired of being on my own Sweet July, I’m waiting here till Summer comes again We could fly, wherever we would go, time would pass us by Softest sighs, so much we could say only with our eyes Following in your lead, I would softly brush against your skin Following from our need, we would find the love that lay within Like no love we’d found before So much love, tangled up in pain that we didn’t see The meaning of, till it was too late to set each other free Following from that pain, I could feel you softly drift away Standing in the rain, remembering the love that I thought was here to stay Julio dulce, the love we had before Julio dulce, I can recall Julio dulce, it never came again Julio dulce So much in love that we could not believe That we would always and forever love each other till the day we die You were my twin but I was only a beginner With a limited grasp of the realities of love I’ll never be sure what came between you and me Was it a self-destructive streak in our personalities that drove us apart? Whisper these words when you remember our time: ‘No one ever touched me the way you did that sweet July’ (instr.) Time goes by, still I look in vain for the reason why In my life, I never had a time like sweet July Following from that time, everyone I loved was compared to you Following from that crime, the felony of wasted love, was there nothing we could do? Julio dulce, I’ve never been the same Julio dulce, since we lost what we had Julio dulce, it never came again Julio dulce Sweet July, I remember the day we met Sweet July, loving that I can’t forget You and I, we only had a month of Summer Sweet July, I’m waiting here till Summer comes…

I don’t get much say where my head goes these days I don’t even know where the sun goes at night Lately I’ve been down, living life in shades of brown I don’t even know where the time goes Then I was woken by the rain Woken by the rain Broken by the pain Woken by the rain I don’t seem to care about the clothes people wear I don’t even worry as the seasons go by I can see for miles, but only when the weather smiles I don’t even know where the time goes Still I was woken by the rain Woken by the rain Broken by the pain Woken by the rain Tell me when will it stop raining (x4) Tell me when will it stop raining (x4) I don’t hide away from the words people say Lately I’ve been down to the fountain of age I don’t save much time by knowing when I’ve crossed the line And I don’t even know where the time goes But I was woken by the rain Woken by the rain Broken by the pain Woken by the rain Woken by the rain, woken by the rain Woken by the rain, hail, snow Follow me everywhere I go, woken by the rain In the time we spent together and the time we spent apart There was too much time Holding back the line, with too much time Till I was woken by the rain… There was too much time Only trying to hold the line Woken by the rain Till I was woken by the rain…
