Accelerator (Pts I + II)

When you slide your body right up next to me
(Accelerator)
My heart beating faster, I can hardly breathe
(Accelerator)
Clothes you’re wearing just right, looking like a star
(Accelerator)
Won’t you take me tonight, riding in your car?
(Accelerator)
When you drive that speed
I feel so weak
We don’t have to speak
I won’t ever leave
Accelerate me
I’m where I want to be
I’m losing all control
Won’t you accelerate
Accelerate me
Cross my heart and hope to die
Accelerate my love babe
Feel me in your power drive
Accelerate my love babe
Round and round and round we go
Twist the dagger to and fro
Please don’t spare my soul
Racing through the night life we don’t ever stop
(Accelerator)
Street lights fly by, so bright, just like shooting stars
(Accelerator)
Talk to me in language I don’t understand
(Accelerator)
Baby keep on climbing, my life is in your hands
(Accelerator)
When you drive that speed
I feel so weak
We don’t have to speak
I won’t ever leave
Accelerate me
I’m where I want to be
I’m losing all control
Well you accelerate
Accelerate me
Cross my heart and hope to die
Accelerate my love babe
Feel me in your power drive
Accelerate my love baby
Round and round and round we go
Grab your partner don’t let go
Separate my soul
I can’t remember when we started driving
The night is so black and we left the city a long time ago
I don’t mind
I lose control
Please don’t slow down
We’re almost there
And though my body is more machine than man
Of this I’m sure
I belong to you my accelerator

Kiss Me In Heaven
03:39

I should have told you I have half a mind
To spend each lovely night with you
I should have offered you my space and my time
It’s not enough to say I do
So kiss me in heaven
After we die
Make me that promise
‘cause I’m gonna work
To give my mind to you
So kiss me in heaven
After we die
Baby I promise
‘cause I need more than one life with you
I never learned about St. Peter in school
But for tonight let’s just pretend
I’m never ever gonna stage no revolution on you
I’m never ever gonna lose myself again
So kiss me in heaven
After we die
Make me that promise
‘cause I’m gonna work
To give my mind to you
So kiss me in heaven
After we die
Baby I promise
‘cause I need more than one life with you

The Flame

Last week we were close as can be in the moonlight
Now we only barely talk on the phone
It seems to me that we’re only in love at the wrong time
And feeling that will turn you to stone
If love is a song we’re singing
The flame turning blue
Well honey my ears are ringing
That’s all all I ever wanted from you
I drove me to our favorite place by the seaside
Ice cream but it don’t taste sweet anymore
I know I’ll be fine but I can’t keep swallowing my pride, pretty baby
And going to the movies alone
If ours is a chance worth taking
The flame burning bright
And mine is a heart worth breaking
I really wanna hold you tonight
Flame of love
One I can’t seem to light
Flame of Love
Please don’t take my something bright
If love is a song were singing
The flame burning strong
Well honey I know you’re bringing
Your heart along
Tell me baby
You know I’ll never hurt you
I only want to know what’s in your mind
We used to dream about the future
But now it just seems so unkind
Don’t let the light go out
Burning the flame of love
Don’t let the sun go down
Burning the flame of love

Saturday's Child
05:07

Monday’s fine
Tuesdays I’m in trouble
Wednesday’s when the whole world’s after me
Thursday night I’ll be seeing double
Friday morning back out on the street
Saturday’s child don’t sleep ’til Sunday
Still living that TV fantasy
Saturday’s child don’t live forever
That’s the way they want it to be
Sundays I’ll be praying to another
Mondays might as well be working for free
Tuesday night I lost another lover
Wednesday dream of Saturdays to be
Saturday’s child don’t sleep ’til Sunday
Still working in the phantom factory
Saturday’s child don’t live forever
That’s the price of living so free
So free me
I’ve got no use for high society
Their money never lasts that long
I’ve got no interest in reality
While they sleep I play my saxophone
Saturday’s child don’t sleep ’til Sunday
Not everything is pain and misery
Saturday’s world belongs to no one
And that’s the way I like it to be

Fake Roses

I’m dancing all alone
Can’t seem to get my feet just right
Second summer on the moon
You know it gets so cold at night
We used to pick flowers for Elvis
But now the meadows all gone
Now we just dream of buildings
Fake roses planted in the front lawn
All that I wanted
I didn’t need it
All that I wanted
I didn’t need it
All that I wanted
I couldn’t let that go
The elevator rush
Can’t tell it’s going up or it's down
When you just can’t get enough
It’s been awhile since you touched the ground
I don’t want to rain on your holiday
With my hallucinations
But the truth always cuts like a razor blade
Just when you’re having big fun
All that I wanted
I didn’t need it
All that I wanted
I didn’t need it
All that I wanted
I don’t need that now
All that I wanted
I didn’t need it
All that I wanted
I didn’t need it
All that I wanted
I just let that go
There’s water in your mercury
There’s thunder in your eyes
When all you want is America
And all I do is drive
Still miles and headlights from you baby

Jesse don’t turn away from me
Let me see your eyes
I’ve been looking for something to believe
Searching day and night
Jesse wake up it’s time to leave
The bags are by the door
With a picture torn from some magazine
Another dream we can’t afford
Don’t it feel like life is just a lonely melody?
Like every single passing moment plays across your silver screen
How serene
Oh but where’d you learn to shake your tambourine?
I’ve known it forever
That’s part of the deal
I go reaching for a star
Over and over again
I never get that far
But I can pretend baby
I go reaching for a star
Tangerine and clover
But it’s only in my heart
Jesse don’t take that tone with me
Don’t you know there’s nowhere left to go?
And you can’t outrun your history
Or all these voices on the radio
Ooh they tell me
Life is just a lonely waking dream
It seems like every single passing moment plays across your silver screen
How serene
If I could only shake your tambourine
But I know you would never
And that’s alright by me
I go reaching for a star
Over and over again
I never get that far
But I can pretend
I go reaching for a star
Tangerine and clover
But it’s only in my heart

Ask me for my photograph
Baby I ain’t got the time
I gotta get salvation fast
They tell me seek and you shall find
Let go of your anger baby
And I’ll let go of my pride
All aboard the midnight train
Baby let’s ride
Come down with me
T is for temptation fighting for the crown
R is for rejection don’t let it get you down
U and me forever
E veryone in harmony
F is for foundation
A pples from the tree
S is something simple not
C razy when you see
I just want a
NATION a nation of the young and free
And the people sing
(True Fascination)
Time is on your side
Come on baby let’s take a ride
(True Fascination)
Something’s in the air
One look and you’re almost there
(True Fascination)
Eyes are open wide
Ecstasy that’s what you find
(True Fascination)
Baby don’t you cry
Never have to say goodbye
When I lie awake at night
All these monsters in my bed
Got to find a brighter light
So I paint the picture red
Swimming through the darkest waters
Diving for the pearl
Soon enough you find that there was nothing left to lose
Give it a whirl
Come dance with me
T is for translation, the language of the heart
R is for religion to tear your world apart
U can’t stop the weather so
E nergize your fantasy
F is for frustration
A nswers never come
S is for solution a
C op without a gun
I just want a
NATION I can’t be the only one
And the people sing

Time is on your side
Come on baby let’s take a ride

Something’s in the air
One look and you’re almost there
(True Fascination)
Eyes are open wide
Ecstasy that’s what you find

Baby don’t you cry
Never have to say goodbye
It’s a brave new world
Watch it all unfurl
Sing it
I just want to laugh
Ok you can take my photograph
Baby don’t you cry
We don’t ever have to say goodbye
To true fascination

I never dreamed that life, baby
Was made of mystery
But when I look for something true
It just seems to slip from me
I never looked to god, baby
Well now I’m on my knees
Just when I thought that you were gone
You flash on my screen
Telephone
Telephone
Telephone Number
Telephone
Telephone
Telephone Number
Telephone
Telephone
That’s all I have of yours
Well I’m not one for sad goodbyes
But you left right out of the blue
I think I’ll ride out late tonight
Searching for signs of you
The moon is high the stars are bright
But heaven never made no difference to me
I hope you find some sleep tonight
Wherever you’ll be
Telephone
Telephone
Telephone Number
Telephone
Telephone
Telephone Number
Telephone
Telephone
That’s all I have of yours
Nothing ever really changes
You take your three steps
Then you walk away
Lovers turn backs and shake their heads
At when you lose control
I know you’re never gonna call me
I know you’re never gonna call
I know you’re never gonna call me
I know you’re never gonna call
I’ll just let the rain fall
