Talking on Water
Sailing a restless sea
From a memory
A fantasy
The wind carries
Into white water
Fare from the islands
Don't you know you're
Never going to get to France
Mary Queen of chance will they find you
Never going to get to France
Could a new romance ever bind you
Walking on foreign ground
Like a shadow
Roaming in far off
Territory
Over your shoulder
Stories unfold you're
searching for sanctuary
you know you're
Chorus
I see a picture
by the lamp's flicker
Isn't it strange
How dreams fade and shimmer
Chorus
I see a picture
by the lamp's flicker
Isn't it strange
how dreams fade and shimmer
Chorus
Never going to get to France
Silence in the air
Is anybody there
Searching every sound
Walking on quiet ground
Somebody's out to get you
Hiding in shadows - Poison Arrows
Somebody's out to break you
Hiding in narrows - Poison arrows
When you gonna break
Watching every move you make
And everything you do
Evil eyes'll be on you
Chorus
Don't give in, don't come any closer, no sir
Keep running, coming in closer, closer
Don't give in, don't come any closer, no sir
Keep running, coming in closer, closer
What you gonna do
Time is running out on you
Anywhere you choose
Anyway you're gonna lose
Chorus
Watching for a spark
It's a moonlight show
Reaching through the dark
Do you have to go
Try to put a message through
To your sweetheart
Won't you like to know the secrets
Of the heart
Crystal gazing
Crystal gazing
What you gonna find in
Crystal gazing
Voices in the dark
And the lights burn low
Teach yourself the art
That you never know
Try to put a message through
To your sweetheart
Won't you like to know the secrets
Of the heart
Chorus
Pictures from the night
Would you be my guide
What you talk about
On the other side
Carry a message through
To your sweetheart
Won't you like to know the secrets
Of the heart
Chorus
Chorus
Watching for a spark
It's a moonlight show
Reaching through the dark
Do you have to go
Try to put a message through
To your sweetheart
Won't you like to know the secrets
Of the heart
I'm a half crazy man
Waiting for confirmation
Signs keep changing and
I need some more information
Some tricks of the light
You never know
Make a flickering midnight light
Into a glow
It's a trick of the light
It's a trick of the light
Something tells me how
Her bright blue eyes are smiling
She turns her head now
Will she won't deny him
Some tricks of the light
You never know
Make a flickering midnight light
Into a glow
And the spark you saw so bright
Was just for show
Could it ever have turned out right
You'll never know
It's a trick of the light
It's a trick of the light
She turns and take his hand
Breaking his concentration
She burns at his command
Makes some transfiguration
Some tricks of the light etc.
You never know
When you want the score
When you need a helping hand
Ad you find closed doors
And you're back where you began
Keeping those secrets
Telling those lies
Can anybody tell me what's the big surprise
Discovery
Who has the chance to know it all
Discovery
Give me some truth, stop making me crawl
How can you sleep
How can you turn away
Thinking so cheap
Some day you're gonna pay
You're keeping secrets
Can anyone tell me why the big surprise
Chorus
Give me some chance
Give me some confidence
Won't you please set me free
Won't someone deliver me
Who's keeping secrets
I got my spies
Does anybody think we live in paradise
Chorus
Walking out
in the street light midnight
Whispering wind catch
me in a headlight
Talk about
your life I'd like to know
It's not easy
going where no-one goes
and no-one knows
Do we have to be so distant
How can you be so unreal
What's the reason for hiding and
How does crying make you feel?
I can see you're
talking to me in riddles
Do what you like
You go where the wind blows
Talk about
your life I'd like to know
It's not easy
going where no-one goes
and no one-knows
Chorus
I reach for a certain disguise
that you're weaving
And I can tell by the mist in your eyes
that you're dreaming,
dreaming
Do we have to be so distant?
How can you be so unreal?
In the clouds
running and chasing shadows
In the crowd
Frozen in a window
Talk about
your life I'd like to know
it's not easy
going where no-one goes
and no-one knows
Chorus
Won't you like to look through
my telescope
The Milky Way's a fine sight to see
All around our universe
We try so hard to view
What's new
Make a trip down to Sagittarius
And take a spin by some nebula
I hope the sky stays clear for us
Tonight goes on so far
in stars
Saved by a bell
Suffer in Hell
But you were to blind to tell
Saved by a bell
Suffer in Hell
And you made it through so well
Shining like bright diamonds the galaxies
Jupiter and Saturn spin by
Passing by companions
They all go drifting by they fly
Carry me down to see Aquarius
I can see there's gonna be
A message from afar
How close we are
Chorus
