1. Girls on Film3:28

   Letra

   See them walking hand in hand across the bridge at midnight heads turning as the lights flashing out are so bright then walk right out to the fourline track there's camera rolling on her back, on her back and I sense the rhythms humming in a frenzy all the way down her spine Girls on film Lipstick cherry all over the lens as she's falling in miles of sharp blue water coming in where she lies the diving man's coming up for air cause the crowd all love pulling dolly by the hair, by the hair and she wonders how she ever got here as she goes under again Girls on film (two minutes later) Girls on film Girls on film (got your picture) Girls on film Wider baby smiling, you've just made a million fuses pumping live heat twisting out on a wire take one last glimpse into the night I'm touching close, I'm holding bright, holding tight give me shudders with a whisper, take me high till I'm shooting a star Girls on film (she's more than a lady) Girls on film Girls on film (see you together) Girls on film Girls on film (see you later)

4. Careless Memories3:53

   Letra

   So soon, just after you've gone my senses sharpen But it always takes so damned long before I feel how much my eyes have darkened Chorus: Fear hangs a plane of gunsmoke drifting in our room so easy to disturb with a thought with a whisper... with a careless memory On the table signs of love lie scattered... and the walls break with a crashing within It's not as though-- as though you really mattered But being close, how could I let you go without some feeling some precious sympathy following (chorus) I walk out into the sun I try to find a new day but the whole place it just screams in my eyes where are you now? cuz I don't want to meet you I think I'd die-- I think I'd laugh at you-- I think I'd cry-- What am I supposed to do, follow you? Outside the thoughts come flooding back now... I just try to forget you... So easy to disturb with a thought... with a whisper... with a careless memory...
5. Anyone out There?4:01
6. Sound of Thunder4:05

   Letra

   I've been in this grass here for the last 10 hours My clothes are dirty but my mouth isn't dry How does it happen? Does it fly through the air? Oh I gave up asking days away I gave up asking Days away And now I'm lying here waiting for the Sound of Thunder Waiting for the Sound of Thunder Here I am, I'm a dotted line Cut the corner, stick me to your door I'm the man who stepped off the path and I just lie here It's what I was made for And now my eyes are closing, but I still feel the land Leaning out for the touch of my hand The world spins so fast that I might fly off The world spins so fast that I might fly off The world spins so fast, I might fly off Waiting for the Sound of Thunder I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder (x6) fade out

   Letra

   Things that you used to say Now take on different meanings You realise Can't be to careful about the lines Come on you know you're not so young You cannot hide behind disguise Listen to your own desire Eyes like an angel - so wise, don't lie You never felt like this before Fly like an angel - so high this time You send your senses streaming free Places you used to go When you were young Look different in the dark Don't you worry it's okay And maybe I can help you Find your way tonight I think you will agree Summer reason's run away Eyes like an angel - so wise, don't lie You never felt like this before Fly like an angel - so high this time You've got your senses streaming free Oh, I hear your heart beating Even faster now than mine Now you know just what I mean So take your place among those twilight Gleaming rivers that you read Give me reasons to believe Eyes like an angel - so wise don't lie You never feel like this again Fly like an angel - so high this time You send my senses streaming free Like an angel Like an angel
9. Hold Back the Rain3:48

   Letra

   We're miles away from nowhere And the wind doesn't have a name So call it what you want to call it Still blows down the lane People tell me I haven't changed at all But I don't feel the same And I bet you've had that feeling, too You just can't laugh all the time And if the fires burn out There's only fire to blame No time for worry 'cause we're on the roam again The clouds all scatter and We ride the outside lane Not on your own, so help me Please hold back the rain So what if the words ain't rhyming Did you think that it's just a game I probably didn't even say that right And I really don't give a damn Okay, go off and wander I'm guilty just the same Sometimes you're needed badly So please come back again And if the fires burn out There's only fire to blame No time for worry 'cause we're on the roam again The clouds all scatter and We ride the outside lane Not on your own, so help me Please hold back the rain
10. Save a Prayer3:45

    Letra

    You saw me standing by the wall corner of a main street And the lights are flashing on your window sill All alone ain't much fun so you're looking for the thrill and you know just what it takes and where to go. Chorus: Don't save a prayer for me now. Save it til the morning after No don't say a prayer for me now. Save it til the morning after Feel the breeze deep on the inside look down into the well If you can you'll see the world in all his fire Take a chance (like all dreamers can't find another way.) You don't have to dream it all, just live a day. (chorus) Save it til the morning after. Save it til the morning after Pretty looking road I try to hold the rising floods that fill my skin Don't ask me why I'll keep my promise I'll melt the ice And you wanted to dance so I asked you to dance but fear is in your soul Some people call it a one night stand but we can call it paradise Don't say a prayer for me now. Save it til the morning after No don't say a prayer for me now. Save it til the morning after Save it til the morning after (4x) Save a prayer til the morning after
11. My Own Way4:50

    Letra

    I saw you at the airace yesterday April showers get out of my way Fear of flying, no not me I'm never bothered, what you say Someone's kid just lives for today I ain't your problem anyway CHORUS 'Cause I've got my own way I can find my own way 'Cause I've got my own way No. 1 public figure, what a pain Just puts another rattle in your brain Take another green but it's not the same Now you're on the Sandlane everyday Dancing with the bulls in any old way Running like a fox to keep up with me CHORUS I'm on 45th between Sixth and Broadway 7UP between Sixth and Broadway
12. Rio4:45

    Letra

    Composição: Duran Duran Wow! Moving on the floor now babe, You're a bird of paradise Cherry ice cream smile, I suppose it's very nice With a step to your left and a flick to the right You catch that mirror way out west You know you're something special And you look like you're the best CHORUS Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand Just like that river twisting through a dusty land And when she shines she really shows you all she can Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande I've seen you on the beach and I've seen you on TV Two, of a billion stars, it means so much to me Like a birthday or a pretty view But then I'm sure that you know it's just for you CHORUS Hey now (wow), look at that, Did he nearly run you down? At the end of the drive, the lawmen arrive, You make me feel Alive, alive, alive I'll take my chance, 'cause luck is on my side I tell you something, I know what you're thinking I tell you something, I know what you're thinking CHORUS Her name is Rio, she don't need to understand I might find her if I'm looking like I can Oh Rio, Rio hear them shout across the land From mountains in the north down to the Rio Grande
13. New Religion5:29

    Letra

    I've been now sauntering Out and down the path sometime Come on, it takes me nowhere, which I knew Faces everywhere pulling grins and signs in things Telling me not there, man, it's no go Don't go there boy I need a reason I can't think without one now Too much learning got to show Call it treason Maybe catch her, don't know how Too many things, too much to know Bring my timing in, seagulls gather on the wind Lady screaming, lady leave me out 'Cause sometimes people stare Coming down, electric chair And steaming crowds they gather and they shout Don't know why this evil bothers me Take another chance boy, carry the fight You can take him if you're fast So why is he trying to follow me? Didn't I say if you're holdin' on You'd be laughing at the last How many reasons do they need? I get along fine with them friends of mine But you have to make a choice I might just believe this time You're singing out of tune but the beat's in time And it's us who make the noise I'm talking for free, I can't stop myself It's a new religion I've something to see, I can't help myself It's a new religion Okay, my reasoning might be clouded by the Sun But someone sees the departmental lie You know this peacetime jabbing fist in stabbing knife Only get one look before you die Don't know why this evil bothers me Take another chance boy, carry the fight You can take him if you're fast So why is he trying to follow me? Didn't I say if you're holdin' on You'd be laughing at the last How many reasons do they need? I get along fine with them friends of mine But you have to make a choice I might just believe this time You're singing out of tune but the beat's in time And it's us who make the noise I'm talking for free, I can't stop myself It's a new religion I've something to see, I can't help myself It's a new religion Gotta take pay the saints 'n sinners In regulation hats 'n scarves 'n things Walking in formation down the lane They carry their cross, make a church bell ring Army majors pull a mean cool truth There lying in a swimming pool Searching for the undeniable truth that A man is just a fool Don't know why this evil follows me Take another chance boy, carry the fight You can take him if you're fast So why is he trying to bother me? Didn't I say if you're holdin' on You'd be laughing at the last How many reasons do they need? I get along fine with them friends of mine But you have to make a choice I might just be right this time You're singing out of tune but the beat's in time And it's us who make the noise I'm talking for free, I can't stop myself It's a new religion I've something to see, I can't help myself It's a new religion (Repeat to fade)
14. The Chauffeur5:11

    Letra

    Out on the tar plains, the glides are moving All looking for a new place to drive You sit beside me, so newly charming Sweating dew drops glisten, freshing your side Chorus The sun slips down bedding heavy behind The front of your dress all shadowy lined And the droning engine throbs in time With your beating heart Sing blue silver Way down the lane away, living for another day The aphids swarm up in the drifting haze Swim seagull in the sky Towards that hollow western isle My envied lady holds you fast in her gaze Chorus And watching lovers part, i feel you smiling What glass splinters lie so deep in your mind To tear out from your eyes With a word to stiffen brooding lies But i'll only watch you leave me further behind Chorus (there's more to this kind of camouflage) (more than just color and shape) (who's going now, in this classiomatic?)
15. Hungry Like the Wolf3:24

    Letra

    Darken the city, night is a wire Steam in the subway, earth is a afire (Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo) Woman, you want me, give me a sign And catch my breathing even closer behind (Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo) In touch with the ground I'm on the hunt, I'm after you Smell like a sound, I'm lost in a crowd And I'm hungry like the wolf Straddle the line in discord and rhyme I'm on the hunt, I'm after you Mouth is alive, and juice's like wine And I'm hungry like the wolf Stalked in the forest, too close to hide I'll be upon you by the moonlight side (Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo) High blood drumming on your skin, it's so tight You feel my heat, I'm just a moment behind (Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo) In touch with the ground I'm on the hunt I'm after you Scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found And I'm hungry like the wolf Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme I howl and I whine, I'm after you Mouth is alive, all running inside And I'm hungry like the wolf Hungry like the wolf Hungry like the wolf Hungry like the wolf Burning the ground, I break from the crowd I'm on the hunt, I'm after you I smell like a sound, I'm lost and I'm found And I'm hungry like the wolf Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme I'm on the hunt, I'm after you Mouth is alive, and juice's like wine And I'm hungry like the wolf
16. Lonely in Your Nightmare3:47

    Letra

    Even on the darkest night When empty promise means empty hand And soldiers coming home Like shadows turning red When the lights of hope are fading quickly Then look to me I'll be your homing angel, I'll be in your head Because you're lonely in your nightmare Let me in And there's heat beneath your winter Let me in I see the delta traces living lonely out on the limb And a passing glimmer warm beneath your skin Please tread gently on the ground When all around you earth turns to fire Only get a second chance when danger's on the wind Because you're lonely in your nightmare Let me in Because there's heat beneath your winter Let me in And it's silent on your stone field Let me in Must be lucky weather when you find The kind of wind that you need C'mon, show me all the light and shade That made your name I know you've got it in your head, I've seen that look before You've built your refuge, Turns you captive all the same Because you're lonely in your nightmare Let me in And it's barren in your garden Let me in Because there's heat beneath your winter Let me in Because it's silent in your stone field Let me in And you're lonely in your nightmare Let me in Because you've waited through your ice age Let me in Because you're so lonely in your nightmare Let me in And it's cold out on your stone range Let me in Because there's heat beneath your winter Let me in
17. Last Chance on the Stairway4:19

    Letra

    I don't remember quite how I met you, Wasn't long ago Just get a picture of sun In your eyes, the waves in your hair Maybe it's something said in a movie Or you could've said last night Just took me out on a limb And I don't really know what I'm doing here And sometimes I'm caught in a landslide My beat's so in time, can you look at me I'm out of reach, I'll talk if it feels right I've had my last chance on the stairway Funny, it's just like a scene out of Voltaire Twisting out of sight 'Cause when all the curtains are pulled back We'll turn and see the circles we traced Ain't no game...when you're playing with fire It doesn't seem right that we fight So the party runs on all night And sometimes I'm caught in a landslide My beats so in time, can you look at me I'm out of reach, I'll talk if it feels right So nervous to say, tell me, can't you see If you want, I fall out forever I can't say no more...bebe dance with me And please don't say leave it till later I've had my last chance on the stairway Wonder why Wonder why...what makes me rise so high Maybe it's something they put in your perfume Or the look in your eyes It could be the atmosphere sinking I don't even know what you're thinking Don't even know what you're drinking But it keeps this heaven alive And sometimes I'm caught in a landslide My beats so in time, can you look at me I'm out of reach, I'll talk if it feels right So nervous to say, tell me, can't you see If you want, I fall out forever I can't say no more...bebe dance with me And please don't say leave it till later I've had my last chance on the stairway
