   Letra

   Thank you for coming home I'm sorry that the chairs are all worn I left them here I could have sworn These are my salad days Slowly being eaten away Just another play for today Oh but I'm proud of you, but I'm proud of you Nothing left to make me feel small Luck has left me standing so tall Gold (Gold) Always believe in your soul You've got the power to know You're indestructible Always believe in, 'cos you are Gold (Gold) Glad that you're bound to return There's something I could have learned You're indestructible, always believing After the rush has gone I hope you find a little more time Remember we were partners in crime It's only two years ago The man with the suit and the face You knew that he was there on the case Now he's in love with you, he's in love with you My love is like a high prison wall But you could leave me standing so tall Gold (Gold) Always believe in your soul You've got the power to know You're indestructible Always believe in, 'cos you are Gold (Gold) I'm glad that you're bound to return Something I could have learned You're indestructible, always believing My love is like a high prison wall But you could leave me standing so tall Gold (Gold) Always believe in your soul You've got the power to know You're indestructible Always believe in, 'cos you are Gold (Gold) I'm glad that you're bound to return Something I could have learned You're indestructible, always believing
2. Lifeline3:20

   Letra

   Changing her colors she's off to the shore She rides the soul train and he fight the law There's a power in his voice and it makes her feel so sure So live and live in love One day he'll build a statue with his hands So gentle when he tries to understand This subterfuge he never really planned Now you're living in the lifeline We're moving In the lifeline We're walking In the lifeline We're throwing So live and let live in love Exchanging their letters their exits begun With deathless precision he's aiming his gun A democracy of sorts that justifies the sum So live and let die in love Neither has the ghost of a chance Those decisions only can be made once You never really know just what you're giving ‘Til you're living in the lifeline We're moving In the lifeline We're walking In the lifeline We're throwing He could have built a statue with his hands So gentle when he tries to understand You never really know just what you're giving ‘Til you're living in the lifeline We're moving In the lifeline We're walking In the lifeline We're throwing to you But I'm not living

4. Only When You Leave4:48

   Letra

   Laying in the after glow, I only want to learn what you know, But now you're leaving... How many hearts must you break? How many calls must I make? But now you're leaving... In this world, all that I choose has come unbearable But love is in your touch Ooh, it's killing me so much Only when you leave I need to love you And when the action has all gone I'm just a little fool enough to need you Fool enough too long Only when you leave, you'll leave in danger Oh, I'll make sure that you pay So give a little passion to a stranger And take this soul away I only want to make this things last, So how could this have gone so fast? And now you're leaving... How many times must I learn? It' s only when you've gone that I burn, And now you're leaving... In the end, all that I left has come unbearable It's hard to change your mind, So leave it all behind Only when you leave I need to love you And when the action has all gone I'm just a little fool enough to need you Fool enough too long Only when you leave, you'll leave in danger Oh, I'll make sure that you pay So give a little passion to a stranger And take this soul away

7. True5:40

   Letra

   (Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi) (Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi) So true Funny how it seems Always in time, but never in line for dreams Head over heels when toe to toe This is the sound of my soul This is the sound I bought a ticket to the world But now I've come back again Why do I find it hard to write the next line? Oh, I want the truth to be said (Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi) I know this much is true (Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi) I know this much is true With a thrill in my head and a pill on my tongue Dissolve the nerves that have just begun Listening to Marvin (All night long) This is the sound of my soul This is the sound Always slipping from my hands Sand's a time of its own Take your seaside arms and write the next line Oh, I want the truth to be known (Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi) I know this much is true (Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi) I know this much is true I bought a ticket to the world But now I've come back again Why do I find it hard to write the next line? Oh, I want the truth to be said (Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi) I know this much is true (Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi) I know this much is true This much is true (This much is a-true-oo) (This much is a-true-oo-oo) I know, I know, I know this much is true (This much is a-true-oo) (This much is a-true-oo-oo) (This much is a-true-oo) (Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi) (This much is a true-oo-oo) I know this much is true (This much is a-true-oo) (Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi) (This much is a true-oo-oo) Know this much is true (This much is a-true-oo) (Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi) (This much is a-true-oo-oo) (Know this much is true) I know, I know, I know this much is true
8. Communication3:24

   Letra

   Communication always leaves me incomplete, The grass is greener, but it's grown beneath my feet... Love inspiration is a message on a wing, But I have left it in the words you'll never sing... Communication let me down, And I'm left here Communication let me down, And I'm left here, I'm left here again! Telex or tell me, but it's always second-hand, I'm incognito but no rendezvous's been planned... Dictate or relay, I could send it to your home, "Return to Sender" - I could sing it down the phone! Communication let me down, But I'm left here Communication let me down, But I'm left here, I'm left here, I, I, I... (Dictate!) (Relay!) I'm sitting here, waiting by the telephone, Waiting for the bell to ring, Short change, fumble, Dial-a-heart trouble, And I ain't got time for searching through the rubble, oh no! Well, I know-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh! Communication let me down, And I'm left here Communication let me down And I'm left here, I'm left here, I, I, I... (I'm a-left a-here-oh!) (I'm a-left a-here-oh!) (I'm a-left a-here-oh!) (I'm a-left a-here-oh!) (I'm a-left a-here-oh!) (I'm a-left a-here-oh!) (I'm a-left a-here-oh!) (I'm a-left a-here-oh!)
9. I'll Fly For You5:08
10. To Cut A Long Story Short3:20

    Letra

    Soldier is turning See him through white light Running from strangers See you in the valley War upon war Heat upon heat To cut a long story short I lost my mind Sitting on a park bench Years away from fighting To cut a long story short I lost my mind Standing in the dark Oh I was waiting for man to come I am beautiful and clean And so very very young To be standing in the street To be taken by someone Questions questions Give me no answers That's all they ever give me Questions questions Oh look at the strange boy He finds it hard existing To cut a long story short I lost my mind To cut a long story short I lost my... Mi-i-i-i-ind!

12. She Loved Like Diamond2:55

    Letra

    She ran the risk from unity Obsession dies alone with tragedy She loved like diamond She loved like diamond And cut so hard, she died A passion course that leads to pain An acid taste that laced her soul again She loved like diamond She loved like diamond And cut so hard, she died Another path, I've run them all The rain has cleared the stains, no trace at all She loved like diamond She loved like diamond And cut so hard, she died She loved like diamond She loved like diamond And cut so hard, she died
13. Paint Me Down3:41

    Letra

    Paint me down Paint me down Paint me down I'm walking into studio Consider strange appeal Paint me in the home I'm brushing up on sketchbook Designs for love, unreal Paint me in the home Oil and skin, you'll need to buy it Consider what I mean She sinks beneath the moving pictures Prepare the brush for me I'm craving with this need Paint me down Paint me down Paint me down I'm soaking up the surface Conceiving new idea Paint me in the home She's oiling up her subject But all still life is here paint me in the home All the boys with framed dimension A cover up on lust He'll take his pain and paint it over Prepare the brush for me I'm craving with this need Paint me down Paint me down Paint me down
14. The Freeze3:30

    Letra

    Blue sing la lune sing lagoon, these visions are making me stay, the artist pretending it's art, the question is where do you pay, unpack my case one more time, I'll cancel my train once again, destiny give me a day, erogenous zones win again. Blue sing la lune sing lagoon, these visions are making me stay, the artist pretending it's art, the question is where do you pay, unpack my case one more time, I'll cancel my train once again, destiny give me a day, erogenous zones win again. Blue sing la lune sing lagoon, these visions are making me stay, the artist pretending it's art, the question is where do you, do you pay.
