Losing Side 03:52
I want you to know that I always loved you so Though you went and let me go and you never felt the same If only you could feel just some of the pain The pain in my heart when we drifted apart I thought you weren't just passing by You were just another girl to make me cry Chorus: Why has love been so unkind (rpt) Why am I always on the losing side never satisfied Here I am again All alone right here on my own When will it ever end When shall I find a girl to call my friend Chorus I've been here before it seems so similar Must be the paper on the walls It seems too familiar You said I never listened but you know I heard Things you said bouncing around my head But I can't catch (rpt) Not a word Chorus:

Don't delay gentlemen please I know he's here I heard a rustle in the leaves The hour's upon us your executioner waits for your heads of state I feel a cold wind bite almost as sharp as the axe He will rip out your soul so ruthless and cold Not unlike yourselves so I've been told Chorus: That yesterday's heroes are tomorrow's Nero's But who am I to have a point of view Just follow orders loyal to the cause No time to think no time to pause for thought Can't fantasize if I was a poet they'd call me a spy So who am I to speculate It's just what you're used to I just eat what's on my plate Chorus: Nobody talks everybody listens That's what I was taught when I was christened Before the day maybe it really once existed but before I knew I was enlisted and those who defied Let's just say I was never taught to cry We only live to die.

You say it ain't so but doncha really doncha really know You pushed me pushed me around You pulled me up and pushed me down One too many times Never thought I would know Never thought I would go Thought I was under your thumb But I could cheat and I could run One too many times One too many times Too close to the line Don't you come to me It's over can't you see for me and you. You lied once you lied twice I told you before that ain't nice I was good I was kind but you gave me the same old lines One too many times It's over honey can't you see it's over now for you and me

Love Burns 02:57
Almost as fast as a blink of an eye love can live and love can dies And the only time you get to catch your breath is when she's left Maybe she'd be here to day if you said all the things You were meaning to say Kidding yourself because you can't believe She'd ever leave The day you met you find it so hard to forget So hard for you to learn So hard to come to terms She's gone away is it true what they say That love burns they never heal you can't see them But you can feel feeling love burns All through the night love burns When you turn out the light Never thought it would end said he was just Just a good friend (rpt)

Your kiss betrayed your thoughts and I knew If I wasn't caught in the fire YKBYT If I wasn't tangled in the wire My heart will be stained if it isn't chained to your memory Girl I never wanted it all I try not to see that gleam in your eye but it's hard to look the other way Why do I waste my time why do I pretend You're only being yourself but you still send me Why don't you stay girl or go away I never want to understand why you had to go but I know The answer is staring me in the face Their is nothing left to do or say it seems such a waste of time Trying to live on memories You know they're not enough and how they're hurting me I try not to see that gleam in your eyes But it's hard to look the other way You better come back now Or you better run Because I felt it before and I only Want to feel it some more.

You know I'll always be your man Through the good and bad I hope you'll understand That my life you own it My love for you couldn't be written by the greatest poet And my heart it glows like the moon in the sky And when you kiss me it flutters Like a butterfly I'm flying so high in the sky 'Cause you've started something baby Something hazy something crazy Keep fueling my fire You're the one that takes me higher and higher You've got me walking on air When you're by my side I'm so satisfied you care And when you tell me you love me I'm in another Galaxy 'Cause you've started something baby Something hazy something crazy Keep fueling my fire You're the one that takes me higher and higher I'm flying so high in the sky .. Don't you ever say goodbye.

If I could find another tear I'd cry it for you But it's Friday night again And no matter the price I'm going to win. You know nightclubs just bore me they're refrigerator showrooms And their's no guarantee on delivery But I know it's wrong and I don't belong But I'll fit in the way I've had to do I haven't even got the right to blame you I was just young and naive and I never thought you would leave I was fool enough to believe Believe in you Well I've been there and I've seen there and I don't like what I see It was never that way between you and me But it's Friday night another Friday night again And their is always wine for memories Time for another good time.
