1. Top Of The Bill
++++++++++++++++++
You're a Rock'n'Roll star
You're out of the charts
Your glory's cold you're getting old
But your life is Rock'n'Roll
Your crazy Rock'n'Roll band
Is spinning in your head (in your head)
Each generation makes us stars
As the first five on the charts
And they are Top Of The Bill
You're old Rock'n'Roll star
You've been the first one on the chart
You had glory and fame
Rock'n'Roll was your game
And you were top of the bill
2. They Need A Million
++++++++++++++++++++++
I see a rainbow in the sky
So many colours and the light
I see the world and I see all the people
How they're running all the time
I see your shadow over me
Many miles I hear a symphony
I see the world and I see all the people
What they are doing what they need
They need a million and a billion
And your money too
They need a million and a billion
And your money too
I feel fine though I realize
That I don't need the million
They are all poor
I feel fine though I have eyes
To see my world and all it skits on ice
I feel fine though I realize
That I don't need the million
They are all poor
I feel fine though I have eyes
To see my world and all it skits on ice
3. Longing For Fire
+++++++++++++++++++
Flying with the guys
And my longing for fire
Crying like last night
The night which brings me higher
In search of light
Escape the night one day
She's lost in time
Just miss so high
Time's passing by and I
I'm on my way
4. Catch Your Train
+++++++++++++++++++
Wake up man it's late but not too late,
It's six o'clock like everyday!
Get your things run and forget the rain,
Take powerpills don't miss your train!
And you'd like to be another
A different guy and a better lover
For your love, for your life check your way.
And you like the Rock'n'Roller
A different life and Whisky Cola
But don't be low keep your own style
And catch your train!
Don't be lazy man and work off your ass,
He's the boss you're gotta do what he says!
Catch your train, run and forget those ways,
Keep it cool it's not too late!
5. Speedy's Coming
++++++++++++++++++
You look at a poster
You look at the wall
The wall in the room where you live
Where you live with your stars
Just listen to his records
Now hear what he says
For he says, "I love you little girl
Come to see me today"
Speedy's Coming
You live in his heart
Speedy's Coming
You live in his heart
You like Alice Cooper
You like Ringo Starr
You like David Bowie
And friends in the Royal Albert Hall
Stick up the pictures, movies, TV
And I'll bring you the show little girl
Come to see me today
Speedy's Coming
You live in his heart
Speedy's Coming
You live in his heart
You like Alice Cooper
You like Ringo Starr
You like David Bowie
And friends in the Royal Albert Hall
Stick up the pictures, movies, TV
And I'll bring you the show little girl
Come to see me today
6. Crying Days
++++++++++++++
Force yourself to use your brain,
The only way to gain,
A lot of things are just a lie.
This world we love comes down in pain
With hate and bloody games
A question-mark up in the sky.
Look, you can't keep away
And you can't hide
Tomorrow, yesterday, today...
Some people say, we'll do it better
Some people say, everything's good
Some people sing, let's come together
But nobody has ever brought it through
Maybe you and me...
7. All Night Long
+++++++++++++++++
Jack it in none of them
He'll get along
Some like the violin, some like the horn
She can't play on and my mind's goin' round
Hot lovin' woman is back in town
Well just to make me feel alright
All night long, oh yeah
But just to make me feel alright
All night long
Jack it in none of them
He'll get along
Some like the violin, some like the horn
She can't play on and my mind's goin' round
Hot lovin' woman is back in town
Well just to make me feel alright
All night long, oh yeah
But just to make me feel alright
All night long
8. This Is My Song
++++++++++++++++++
I can't believe what the people say
There's only hate everywhere
So many people go different ways
So many things don't you care
They see nobody, they see themselves
But a stage like in a show
They see the hell, and they need your help
They need your help, they need love, love
This is my song
I tell you about the story of love
This is my song
I tell you about the story of love
I think I need you, you need me too
The place where we live is here
The world is griping what can I do
For you and you everywhere
I sing this song 'bout the world of love
And hope you hear what I say
Forever freedom, forever love
Forever love everyday
9. Sun In My Hand
+++++++++++++++++
Yeah, well I'd like to tell you something now
For men who shows you who's the furthest in the sky
How can you lose your mind
How can you waste your time
Hoping like that
Look at the sun inside
Of my hand so bright
I call it music
Now if you touch you'll see
The stars from infinity
Judge me forever
You and the touch of rain
Music will make you sane
Burn like you say 'em
How can you lose your mind
How can you waste your time
Hoping like that
Look at the sun inside
Of my hand so bright
I call it music
10. We'll Burn The Sky
++++++++++++++++++++++
I'm in love with the sunshine
I'm in love with the falling rain
Everything seems to call your name
Yesterday, you were leavin'
Leavin' life and all the pain
Everything wants you back again
wants you back again
wants you back again
I've found myself through you
And there was love in my life
I felt always naturally high
And my love had a home
But now my mind has started to roam
You're my life-giving fire
And you carry all my love
Through you I was so inspired
You're engraved deep in my heart
My dreams recall us being one
I've searched for you to be free
My force of life you have always been
I feel blue since you've gone
Your breath of love surrounded me
When can I rejoin you to be free
rejoin you to be free
Wait, can this be a dream
There is a voice in my head
It belongs to you, it says
Don't cry no need to be sad
There's a way to stay with you again
It's more than you ever had
And no death brings us apart
Our timeless love always grows
Because you are my other heart
I know we've never been apart
Your love sets fire to my heart
We'll Burn The Sky
When it's time
For me to die!
We'll Burn The Sky
When it's time - time to die,
We'll Burn The Sky
Back
