LYRICS

Hold On To Something
Late night, the house is empty still
Wish I could hold you close to me
No right, to leave me here this way
I thought love was here to stay, tonight
Tonight
HOLD ON, HOLD ON-JUST HOLD ON TO SOMETHING
HOLD ON, HOLD ON
HOLD ON, HOLD ON-JUST HOLD ON TO SOMETHING
HOLD ON, HOLD ON
Pressure, so you refuse to share
And you forget to care, at all
Somethin', something besides just you
No matter if it's true, tonight
Tonight
(CHORUS)
I've got to deny myself once
Just ignore the fronts that keep me from you

...And The Light Goes On
Empty faces wander on the street
And everyone I meet, is splitting at the seams
Try to talk and try to make some sense, when everything's past tense
No way when there's no means
AND THE LIGHT GOES ON-THE LIGHT GOES ON
THE LIGHT GOES ON-THE LIGHT GOES ON
When even good intentions go astray
It's hard to find a way, to make your life worthwhile
Hard to find someone who'll understand, who won't make dark demands
And won't put me on trial
(CHORUS)
You never know if love lost could come back
Pull the white from black-evermore
Maybe I'm dreamin', but dreams can come true
It's all up to you-evermore
(CHORUS to fade)

Dream That Never Dies
Looking around for new sensations
Never succeed-You don't know why, you feel, so down
Run around town in highest fashion
Drink till you're sleepin' on your feet-Tonight, and every night
I don't think that there's a new way of walkin'
All I know is when you talk, you're always walking away from me
(It never dies...)
(A DREAM THAT NEVER DIES)-I WANT IT NOW
(A DREAM THAT NEVER DIES)-I WANNA GET IT RIGHT NOW
(A DREAM THAT NEVER DIES)
I know that things are looking sadder
I know it's hard to realize, you can't, control
Although the lining isn't silver, doesn't mean you're completely beat
You push, till they don't shove
You got guys in every port and every station
But do they care enough to sit around and wonder when you'll be by
(It never dies...)
(CHORUS)
(So far)-All my efforts fail me
(So hard)-Knowing no one fills my life like you do....only you
(CHORUS)

Combat Zone
All in the way, she looks
Knows what it takes to make her happy
The way she looks at me-The way I'll never be
Another day, it's too late
Too late for me to know what's happened
Did someone shut the door?
Could I have asked for more-I needed more
ALONE-I WON'T FIGHT ANYMORE
I'M GIVIN' IT ALL TO YOU-NO MORE COMBAT ZONE
ALONE-I WON'T FIGHT ANYMORE
I'M GIVIN' IT ALL TO YOU-NO MORE COMBAT ZONE
Home in the dark, we'd laugh
Laugh in our drinks till we've forgotten
How crazy things are now, and who threw in the towel
Time after time, we'd say
That in a while it would get better
If only I had known, how little we had grown
What did I know?
(CHORUS)

Maybe It's You
In the coldest night, can you feel it burnin' bright, or do you want to
I'm the same as you, not quite sure just what to do, or what to feel like
Everytime I hear your name, I wring my hands and mumble
Maybe I'll try and write a letter
Or better yet I'll just forget her
But you know I can't forget her 'cause
MAYBE IT'S YOU-MAYBE IT'S ME-MAYBE IT'S YOU THAT'S OUT OF LINE
MAYBE IT'S ME THAT'S DOING TIME
MAYBE IT'S YOU-MAYBE IT'S ME-MAYBE IT'S YOU THAT'S OUT OF LINE
MAYBE IT'S ME THAT'S DOING TIME
Now you should know, there's a place inside my heart, that's always empty
And I'm not blind, though I wish I were sometimes, to ease the anger
I get angry
Everytime I hear your name, I wring my hands and mumble
You know the whole thing makes me crazy
When she makes it seem so easy
But you know I can't condemn her 'cause
(CHORUS)
Why's it always go that way-Why's it always go that way-Tell me why
Always, always ends that way-Always, always ends that way-Tell me why-Why
Everytime I hear your name, I wring my hands and mumble
Maybe I'll try and write a letter
Or better yet I'll just forget her
But you know I can't forget her 'cause
(CHORUS)

One Way Out
ONE WAY OUT-JUST ONE WAY OUT TO MEET THE BREAK OF DAY
ONE WAY OUT-JUST ONE WAY OUT TO MEET THE BREAK OF DAY
She's so lovin'-She's so good-She's forgotten all her shoulds
Like don't open up, to just anyone, who is pleasin' to your ears
And her lover, back at home, doesn't know she's left alone
With a broken dream, she keeps clingin' to
Though she tries she just can't leave him-She gotta leave
(CHORUS)
She's been workin', way too much, till she finds she's out of touch
Only memories, fill her idyll time, and the past just makes her bleed
Break away girl-Break his heart-It's the only way to start
Take what's here today, it's the only way
Somewhere, someone to believe in-Believe in you
(CHORUS)

Another Day In My Life
Life on a slender thread
All the things that you said out loud, will bring you down
Inside the outside now
I wish I knew just how they live-I don't understand
Well I won't take it-Won't even try
I got my reasons so don't bother asking me why
ANOTHER DAY IN MY LIFE-AND WHAT'S IT MEAN TO YOU
ANOTHER DAY IN MY LIFE-AND WHAT'S IT MEAN TO YOU
Take it or leave it love
You'll always think that you're above, what makes you breathe
We'll just ignore the pain
And say things are the same, all blindmen on the edge
Well I won't take it-I won't even try
I've got my reasons so don't bother asking me why
(CHORUS)

Heartbreak
In the moonlight, I hear people say
Like to fall in love that way
Some fall deeper, and some not so
Me, I take it nice and slow-I like it slow
Sharin' a memory, at a table for two
Seems just like the thing to do
So say what you mean girl, but Honey, mean what you say
I'll get less confused that way
YOU WERE HEADING FOR A-A HEARTBREAK
HEADIN' FOR A CRUEL HEARTBREAK
HEADIN' FOR A HEARTBREAK
HEADIN' FOR A CRUEL HEARTBREAK
Well, if you screamed any louder, I would surely see
You mean what you say to me
You always say yes man, but you always mean no
So how was I supposed to know?
(CHORUS)
In the moonlight, I hear people say
Like to fall in-Fall in love that way
Some fall deeper, and some not so
Me, I take it nice and slow
(CHORUS)

Love Goes Blind
You don't want love-You don't know love, but maybe I think that you do
And all that I want you to do, is make up your mind
No connection-No relation, and there's no one you want to take home
Your life is a colorful drone, but you say you're fine....so far!
Stuck here waitin', for a breakthrough-It's so good to have somethin' to feel
I want it so much to be real, but I'll play it cool
PLEASE TELL (PLEASE TELL) ME WHY (ME WHY)
WHY LOVE GOES BLIND (WHY LOVE GOES BLIND)
PLEASE TELL (PLEASE TELL) ME WHY (ME WHY)
WHY LOVE GOES BLIND (WHY LOVE GOES BLIND)
Indecision, is the cruel way, and I know you're just bidin' my time
Feedin' me tired old lines-I won't be your fool....no fool
(CHORUS)
Well, I know she thinks she's fine...avoiding the cold in her heart
Won't recall, all the time-Then it's gone with an unthought remark
(CHORUS)

Apart From The Crowd
Everybody's dancin' 'way the night, because there's nothing they need to do
And when you look into her eyes you want to cry, 'cause you know all she wants from you
And you'll never find a love, in the cold of night, only substitutes
So you're left to play the same old games, with the same old boring rules
In every heart, a hidden sorrow
Just last the night-Forget tomorrow....tomorrow
APART FROM ANY CROWD-I'LL SCREAM YOUR NAME OUT LOUD
APART FROM ANY CROWD-I'LL SCREAM YOUR NAME OUT LOUD
So you bury all your fears, with a new career that'll fill your eyes
And priorities are spinnin' in your head, while the you that you care for dies
And anytime you won't admit the light goes on, then you're fillin' up
With a pressure you don't need and can't stand, till you find all the doors are shut
In every heart, a hidden sorrow
Just last the night-Forget tomorrow...tomorrow
(CHORUS)
