We're like crystal,
We break easy
I'm a poor man -
If you leave me
I'm applauded,
Then forgotten
It was Summer,
Now it's Autumn

I don't know what to say
You don't care anyway
I'm a man in a rage
with a girl I betrayed
Here comes love, it's like honey
you can't buy it with money
you're not alone anymore
shock me to the core
you shock me to the core

We're like crystal, it's not easy
With your love you can't beat me
Every man (Every man)
and every woman (And every woman)
Needs someone
So keep it comin', keep it comin', keep it comin'
keep it comin', keep it comin', keep it comin'

I don't know what to say
you don't care anyway
I'm a man in a ditch
with a girl I betrayed
here comes love, it's like honey
you can't buy it with money
you're not alone anymore
shock me to the core
you shock me to the core

I don't know if I told you
But I'm seeking sanctuary
You'd never guess the things that I do
I've had the devil around for tea

Don't you know that I'm here beside you?
Can't you see that I can't relax?
When I saw you in my rear view
You could have stopped me in my tracks

I'll be there for you when you want me to
I'll stand by your side like I always do
In the dead of night it'll be alright
Because I'll be there for you when you want me to

You could take me to an island
Ride across a stormy sea
We could worship pagan idols
There together you and me

Why don't you run over here and rescue me?
You could drive down in your car
Why don't we both take a ride and turn that key
We'll drive at sixty miles an hour

I'll be there for you when you want me to
I'll stand by your side like I always do
In the dead of night it'll be alright
Because I'll be there for you when you want me to

I'll be there for you when you want me to
I'll stand by your side like I always do
In the dead of night it'll be alright
Because I'll be there for you when you want me to

I'll be there for you when you want me to
I'll stand by your side like I always do
In the dead of night it'll be alright
Because I'll be there for you when you want me to

What am I gonna do
I feel like I'm on fire
If you only knew
That you're the object of desire

I keep hanging on, keep hanging on
And I swear by God that you're the only one
I keep hanging on, keep hanging on
And I swear by God that it won't be long

My aim is true
My vision is clear
My thoughts are crude
Whenever you're near

I keep hanging on, keep hanging on
And I swear by God that you're the only one
I keep hanging on, keep hanging on
And I swear by God that it won't be long

I keep hanging on

You've got a vicious streak
For someone so young
You're like solar flair
In the rising sun

I keep hanging on
I keep hanging on
I keep hanging on
I keep hanging on

It doesn't take a lot to confuse me
I'm not aware of the passing of time
And I'd like to say to those who accuse me
Could you do it while you looked in my eye

If you hold on primitive notion
And if you think you'd like to try
You can drink this magic potion
And you can do it 'til the day that you the day that you die

I've done it before and I'll do it again
A judgement of life that I'll burn 'til the end
How can it be that we're so far apart
I want it to be like it did at the start

I'm doing my best to confound? you
Your behaviour is so volatile
Not even a zoo would impound you
Don't look at me with your criticle smile

Well I've been driving in the wrong gear
It's been a long and lonely ride
It's been winter for a whole year
But you couldn't hurt me if you tried

I've done it before and I'll do it again
Charged with a life that'll burn 'til the end
How can it be that we're so far apart
I want it to be like it did at the start

I've done it before and I'll do it again
A judgement of life that I'll burn 'til the end
How can it be that we're so far apart
I want it to be like it did at the start

I've got a message that I need to send
It's coming to you straight from a friend
I wanted to see what's inside my heart
I wanted to be like it was in the start

As I look at the morning sky
Today the wind is blowing hard
See that bird is flown too high
Pretty soon it will be tired
I spent a day all by myself
A rich man without his wealth
Sometimes I get it wrong
But I'm not the only one

The afternoon was very clear
The sun was beating down on me
I got thirsty for a beer
That I had to go to sea
The sea was very rough
It made me feel sick
But I like that kind of stuff
It beats arithmetic

I don't want the world to change
I like the way it is
Just give me one more wish
I can't get enough of this
What it is to be alive
And not just to survive
To hit and not to miss
I can't get enough of this

The early evening mists
Look beautiful to me
Was sweeter than a kiss
I wish you all could see
I'm a long long way from home
But this photograph of you
Even though it's monochrome
Tells me what I should do
So I got up on my feet
I knew it would be alright
For my clothes were looking beat
In the middle of the night

I don't want the world to change
I like the way it is
Just give me one more wish
I can't get enough of this
What it is to be alive
And not just to survive
To hit and not to miss
I can't get enough of this

I don't want the world to change
I like the way it is
Just give me one more wish
I can't get enough of this
What it is to be alive
And not just to survive
To hit and not to miss
I can't get enough of this

I can't get enough of this
I can't get enough of this
I can't get enough of this
I can't get enough of this
I can't get enough of this
I can't get enough of this
I can't get enough of this
I can't get enough of this

I've been accused of everything
From Timbuctu to old Berlin
I need some armor for my flesh
I need to stop and take a rest

I've been wide-eyed but couldn't see
I stand accused of being me

I believe in politics
I believe in everything
I believe this world of ours is giving me adrenaline
When I hear a baby cry
When I see an old man die
That's just the way it is

Rock the shack, rock the shack, rock the shack, rock the shack
Rock the shack, rock the shack, rock the shack, rock the shack

Yeah that's the way it is

I took each day the way it came
I put my future out of frame
The signs were there for all to see
Like blue eyed mind to you and me
My head laid on my beating breast
I swear to you I pass the test
I walked one hundred thousand miles
And you're the judge who's been my trial
??? my trial

I believe in politics
I believe in everything
I believe this world of ours is just a den of vice and sins
And even on the darkest night
We could reach for the light
And we could get it right

Get it right, get it right, get it right, get it right
Get it right, get it right, get it right, get it right

I believe in politics
I believe in everything
I believe this world of ours is giving me adrenaline
Ten thousand year ago
Crawling on the floor
Well get up Jack
It's time to rock the shack

Rock the shack, rock the shack, rock the shack, rock the shack
Rock the shack, rock the shack, rock the shack, rock the shack

This can't be real
My heart is burning
How does it feel
Well let's say I'm learning
It had to come
The ship has landed
It's time to run
The crew are stranded

We're having the time of our lives
We're lost in a cruel paradise

Someone like you could make me feel like I used to do
Return my heart, yeah, make it feel like it does at the start
Someone like you, Someone like you, yeah

You're everything to me
The sweetest symphony
All that I try to be
You are my harmony
I guess what I mean to say
Is you keep the wolves at bay
The children on holiday
Here comes the crowd

We're having the time of our lives
We're lost in a cruel paradise

Someone like you can make me feel like I used to do
Return my heart, yeah, make it feel like it does at the start
Someone like you, yeah, Someone like you, yeah

Close Range

I wanna scream, I wanna shout
I wanna know what it's all about
I've seen it before but not like this
I saw your name, it was on the list

By 4 O'Clock (It's gonna change)
You were pretty high (It's gonna change)
Right on the floor (It's gonna change)
Looking at the sky (It's gonna change)
I remember you (It's gonna change)
When you were a kid (It's gonna change)
It was pretty strange (It's gonna change)
And things you did

You've got to pull yourself together man
You've got to get back on your feet again
How can I ever make you understand
You've got the world right in your hands

No cold heart could turn away
And not be moved by what I saw today
There on the floor, thirty years or more
He doesn't care, he just wants to score

By 4 O'Clock (It's gonna change)
You were pretty high (It's gonna change)
Right on the floor (It's gonna change)
Looking at the sky (It's gonna change)
I remember you (It's gonna change)
When you were a kid (It's gonna change)
It was pretty strange (It's gonna change)
And things you did

You've got to pull yourself together man
You've got to get back on your feet again
How can I ever make you understand
You've got the world right in your hands

You've got to pull yourself together man
You've got to get back on your feet again
How can I ever make you understand
You've got the world right in your hands

Yet it only seems just like yesterday
We used to run and hide
Remember in the park where we used to play
The grass looked ten foot high

You've got to pull yourself together man
You've got to get back on your feet again
How can I ever make you understand
You've got the world right in your hands

You've got to pull yourself together man
You've got to get back on your feet again
How can I ever make you understand
You've got the world right in your hands
