Face Without A Soul
She's a face without a soul
This lady's heart is gold
She's a face without a soul
This lady's heart is gold
Though her hands are cool they'll burn
You may kiss her but you'll have to take your turn
In her life you're just another bird in the sky
When she says you must be ready to fly
Ready to fly, up and fly away
She's a face without a soul
This lady's heart is gold
She's a face without a soul
This lady's heart is gold
This lady has no love
Herself, perhaps, is who she puts above
Everything, and of course, everyone
Knows this lady thinks she's number one
Number one, yes the only one
She's a face without a soul
This lady's heart is gold
She's a face without a soul
This lady's heart is gold
She's gonna fall on her face someday
Find other men for her games to play
I'm gonna make sure everyone knows
What she is trying to do
She's a face without a soul
This lady's heart is gold
She's a face without a soul...

Antique Angelique
There's a grandfather clock in the corner
With a smile on it's face
Chairs and tables, expensive labels
Velvet curtains and lace
Every day when I go in there
I will buy a thing or two
But money can't buy everything
'Cos what I really want is you
Oh, Antique Angelique, you mean more to me
Than everything I have
Oh, Antique Angelique, you mean more to me
Than everything I have
Now my house is an empty garden
And the shop is so bare
All these things that I bought mean nothing
'Cos Angelique is still there
It's too late now to forget her
She means far too much to ignore
Now I'm haunted with memories
That I just can't stand anymore
Oh, Antique Angelique, you mean more to me
Than everything I have
Oh, Antique Angelique, you mean more to me
Than everything I have
Take back the table, the velvet and lace
The chairs, and the clock with the smile on it's face
Take them all and stand them where they were before
Antique Angelique, you mean more to me
Than everything I have
Oh, Antique Angelique, close the door, and now
You're everything I have
Antique Angelique, you mean more to me
Than everything I have
Antique Angelique...

Poor Old Man
He is in his room, men will be there soon
They come to smash the heaven he has known
Now he's sure to know soon that he must go
This backstreet dream he has to leave behind
Oh, what a shame, oh what a shame
He's a poor old man, poor old man
Poor old man, can we help you?
Things are at their worst, what should he do first?
He must wonder, no one wants to know
He must spread his wings, pack away his things
A sack is all he needs for all he owns
Tears they blind his eyes, tears blind his eyes
He's a poor old man, poor old man
Poor old man, can we help you at all?
Poor old man, poor old man
Poor old man, can we help you at all?
Poor old man, poor old man
Poor old man, can we help you at all?

Little Miss Nothing
People all around they look at you, and I have seen them sneer
But they don't realise how much I need you,
so let me make it very clear
That you won't have to worry just 'cos your clothes are torn
Your windows they need cleaning and the weeds are growing high
But Little Miss Nothing I won't pass you by
You have no daddy to tell your troubles to,
but don't you worry I'll share them with you
We won't worry about the stormy weather,
if you have troubles we'll share them together
Your house is nearly falling, but I'll change all that for you
Your windows they need cleaning and the weeds are growing high
But Little Miss Nothing I won't pass you by
Now I will clean your windows, cut the weeds from high to low
I will mend your rooftops, and the taps again will flow
But Little Miss Nothing I won't let you go

When I Awake
There's an emerald sky
Silver birds flying by
Purple trees all around
Velvet grass on the ground
Then I see a face, of the girl who's calling me
And love is in my eyes for this girl was just a dream
When I awake she is gone
And I return to reality
When I awake she is gone
Because it's just a dream, a fantasy
Then the morning light
Slowly flows into night
And I close my eyes
And reality dies
Again I see the face of the girl who's calling me
And now she's in my arms but this love can never be
When I awake she is gone
And I return to reality
When I awake she is gone
Because it's just a dream, a fantasy
Again I see the face of the girl who's calling me
And now she's in my arms but this love can never be
When I awake she is gone
And I return to reality
When I awake she is gone
Because it's just a dream, a fantasy
When I awake...

Nothing At All
There's a man sitting in a concrete room
In a place full of emptiness and gloom
With his head in his hands he's far away
It's a long time ago since yesterday
And now his hands, now his hands start to fall
In his world of nothing at all
And now his hands, now his hands start to fall
In his world of nothing at all
As a boy he had made so many friends
Now they're gone loneliness just never ends
And in that cold concrete room he trials the day
Yes, the price of a life is hard to pay
And now his hands, now his hands start to fall
In his world of nothing at all
And now his hands, now his hands start to fall
In his world of nothing at all
Close your eyes, there's nothing more to see
Close your eyes and thank the world you're free
There's a man sitting in a concrete room
In a place full of emptiness and gloom
With his head in his hands he's far away
It's a long time ago since yesterday
And now his hands catch the tears that start to fall
In his world of nothing at all
And now his hands catch the tears that start to fall
In his world of nothing at all
And now his hands, like the tears start to fall
In his world of nothing at all
Yes, now his hands, like the tears start to fall
In his world of nothing at all
And now his hands, now his hands start to fall
In his world of nothing at all
And now his hands, now his hands start to fall
In his world of nothing at all
Yes, now his hands...

Backwater
Down at Backwater junction rolling down the line
In the dark early morning I heard the one-forty-nine
I was walking down the highway, needed somewhere to go
A lady laid beside me and she invited me home
She led me cold, tired and hungry down the backwater road
In a house on the corner looking over the track
I woke up with a fever and a pain in my back
She was lying there beside me, my fever started to grow
Had a funny feeling but the lady said no
My lover needs a doctor down the Backwater Road
Whatcha lookin' for, whatcha lookin' for
Lady do you know what cha' lookin' for
Was I wrong to play along?
Lady was I right or lady was I wrong?
Backwater doctor, you've got me breathing in time
It's ten-thirty in the morning and I'm feeling alright
I went back to my lady but I wasn't to know
Lady left this morning and she's not coming home
I was cold when she left me down the Backwater Road

Just Take Me
I am just a poor man, got nowhere to go
All my leaves have fallen, left me all alone
If I was a rich man, if I was a king
I would give you all I have, give you everything
If you'd just take me, just take me now
If you'd just take me
Never seen my daddy, died when I was two
Mama did the best she could, taught me all she knew
Said that love was everything, tears came to her eyes
Never knew the meaning, now I realise
Love is all you need, all you need now
If you just take me
I'm trying hard to get you, I'm not the only one
Never had a big car, but I'm not on the run
If love has got a meaning see it in my eyes
If you see the beginning, then you'd realise
Love is all you need, all you need now
If you just take me
Just take me
Just take me now
Won't you just take me

Break The Rules
Spent a long, long evening in a low down honky-tonk bar
Pulled a low down lady with a long black honky-tonk car
I asked no questions, I got no lies
A one off winner, I didn't want any ties
And I knew it wasn't right
Well, everybody has to sometimes break the rules
Took me down on the highway doing too many miles an hour
And by the way she motored thought we might have made
the Eiffel Tower
She stopped the motor by her own front door
I knew she'd done it so many times before
But I was off of the floor
But everybody has to sometimes break the rules
I woke up next morning feeling kind of up and down
'Cos I did not know if I was in or out of the town
Then I saw the face from the night before
My purse was empty lying there on the floor
But like I told you before
That, everybody has to sometimes break the rules
I spend a low down evening sitting high on a honky-tonk stool
And I spent my money like a low down honky-tonk fool
But everybody has to sometimes break the rules
Well, everybody has to sometimes break the rules
Yes, everybody has to sometimes break the rules

Drifting Away
You can't see what you mean to me
I just can't get you out of my head
You move me more than I've ever been
Like a wild supersonic jet
But I can't see your love drifting away
And I don't want your love d-d-d-drifting away
I got told by a friend of mine
That you don't want me anymore
Now my friend's got a broken nose
Sure, and I got a broken jaw
So don't push me around, I'm coming your way
And I don't want your love d-d-d-drifting away
Don't you know what I'm living for?
Don't you know what I'm trying to say?
Don't try to shove me outta that door
'Cos you're mine and it's staying that way
I'm giving you my love, don't throw it away
But I can see your love d-d-d-drifting away
Oh, drifting away, you got me drifting away
Oh, drifting away

Don't Think It Matters
Maybe I'm right, or maybe I'm wrong
I got to go on anyway
I'm finding it hard to try and play the right card
And woman you're getting in my way
Oh, you don't think it matters at all
No, you don't think it matters at all
No, you don't think it matters at all
I'm working all night, you know I'm working all night
Trying to get something out of my head
I live for the day when everybody will say
It's better than all of the rest
Oh, you don't think it matters at all
No, you don't think it matters at all
No, you don't think it matters at all
Maybe I'm right, or maybe I'm wrong

Lonely Man
Lonely man upon the shore
What on earth are you looking for?
You're protection is quite clear
And you're never really near
Will you ever find what you are looking for?
Seeing others on the shelf
Only thinking of yourself
Will you ever start to learn?
Will your pockets ever burn?
Will you ever find what you are looking for?
Look at the sky, why do you cry?
What do you see? Your misery
Look at the sky, why do you cry?
What do you see? Your misery
Lonely man, you're on your own
Find someone to take you home
A friend is what you need
Would you mind if it was me?
Maybe then you'll find what you are looking for.
Will you ever find what you are looking for?

Slow Train
I can't afford a ticket on an old Dakota airplane
I gotta jump a ride on a cattle-trucking slow train
I guess it doesn't matter
As long as I can get my head down in the sun
I wrote a rockin' song, gonna sing it at the station
I'll finish all the words when I reach my destination
I guess it doesn't matter
As long as I can get my head down in the sun
Hey mama, please now don't you fret none
Don't worry, but please don't you forget
Hey mama, please don't get upset none
I gotta leave to find me something better
Hey mama, things gonna work out fine now
Believe me, no need for you to write
Hey mama, things gonna work out fine now
I gotta friend who said that she'd invite me
I came here in the morning and I crept out
in the middle of night
I gave nobody warning I was leaving and I felt it was right
Now I'm off again, it sure is feeling all right
Got a feeling that I'm leaving with a ticket
and I won't jump a ride
It's no good you believing that my leaving was a wrong,
it was right
Now I'm off again, it sure is feeling all right
I can't afford a ticket on an old Dakota airplane
I gotta jump a ride on a cattle-trucking slow train
I guess it doesn't matter
As long as I can get my head down in the sun
I wrote a rockin' song, gonna sing it at the station
I'll finish all the words when I reach my destination

Broken Man
Sitting by a broken window
Up in a back room swallowing wine
Gazing down a backstreet garden
With my bed chair table and wine
Looks like I'm going no where but no where's where I am
Guess I'll always be a backstreet broken man
Calling out my name and number
As I was walking out of my cell
Louie gave me back my wallet
He nearly dropped my picture of Nell
Drinking gets you nowhere but nowhere's where I am
Guess I'll always be a backstreet broken man
Oh broken man, oh yeah, broken man
Early on a Sunday morning
As I was walking on down the lane
Someone said, I beg your pardon
And I was sure I knew her name
She was going somewhere but nowhere's where I ran
Guess I'll always be a backstreet broken man
Oh that's where I am, guess I'll always be
a backstreet broken man

Blue For You
When I get old and find the time
I'll paint a picture about my life
I'll paint it blue for you, I'll paint it blue for you
You gave me love, a love so strong
I treated you so bad, I treated you wrong
Now I want to show, I feel so low, I'm blue for you
When I was younger I tried so hard
To find a good woman and give her my love
I found a woman sweet as can be, I found a woman for me
I didn't know I had the world
I was still looking for ways to your love
Now that I know, I feel so low, I'm blue for you
Cheatin' and lyin', I played around
Livin' and dyin', you stood your ground
Cheatin' and lyin', you knew so well
There's no good denying, you know me too well
When I'm alone I realise
Your eyes were smilin' but deep inside
I saw the blue in you, everything blue for you
You gave me love, a love so strong
I treated you so bad, I treated you wrong
Now I want to show, I feel so low, I'm blue for you
Feel so low, I'm blue for you
I feel so low I'm blue for you

That's A Fact
Sitting in a cornfield
Looking at the cob
Thinking of a long line
Waiting for a job
And I'm alone and that's a fact
I'm alone and that's a fact
Sitting in a full car
someone at the wheel
Going to a new stop
I wonder if it's real
And I'm alone and that's a fact
And I'm alone and that's a fact
I need to maybe talk to you
Said I need to and said I need you
I need to I need to be with you
I said I need to I gotta see you
Sitting at a new stop
Didn't get the job
Couldn't find a long line
Took another drop
And I'm alone and that's a fact
So I'm alone and that's a fact
Sitting at a new stop
Didn't get the job
Couldn't find a long line

Yes it's a hard time for us all be som kind of fight
She makes the same excuse for making all the same mistakes again
Now I think of all the times we had
Yeah, of all the good and all the bad

It doesn't matter at all

Now I see the light that's shining from your eyes
Even brighter than before
Telling me something now that I believe is true
'Cos I found the truth with you
I will take you with me everywhere I go
Flying higher than before
With a feeling that is meant for you and me
Every day a little more
If we see a way together as we go
We will never be alone
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

I could do them all with you
I would do them all with you
I will do them all for you

Walking the tightrope
And losing my pole
I hang on by my teeth
One of those nights
It didn't feel too right
Gonna cry myself to sleep

Oh! Oh! What a night
No telephone news
And I'm missing you
I can't afford to phone
There's a thousand people
Using my room
But I never felt so alone
Oh! What a night
Oh! What a flight it was
Oh! Oh! What a night

Stones
I'm moving on, I don't know where
But, I've just gotta get me away, from here
So long gone, I'm lost in time
Looking for an answer, waiting for a sign
Stones in my head, stones in my head
I don't know how to break stones in my head
I'm reaching out, I don't feel a thing
The gloves, that I'm wearing are made of my skin
Nobody knows what I'm tryin' to hide
But when I start breaking you'll see through my eyes
Stones in my head, stones in my head
Trying hard to break stones in my head
It's cold out here, still I'm feeling fine
'Cos no one's gonna ask me to come on inside
I don't wanna know but I guess I do
'Cos maybe these stones are made out of you
Stones in my head, stones in my head
I really wanna break stones in my head
Stones in my head, stones in my head
I don't know how to break stones in my head...

Let Me Fly
I've been so lonely
I can't find any way
So long since I lost my way
I've got a feeling
You're gonna run away anyday
Why does it always seem to be me?
So let me fly
Let me fly like a bird in the sky
Let me fly-y-y away
I wanna climb really high
All the time in the sky
Wanna stay up there all day
So let me fly
Let me fly like a bird in the sky
Let me fly-y-y
Getting away
So after today
Let me fly, fly, fly away
You say you're all right
You don't care anyway
I'm listening, you're trying to say
You think I'm crazy
You're thinking you got everything right
But you're fooling no-one else but yourself
So let me fly
Let me fly like a bird in the sky
Let me fly-y-y away
I wanna climb really high
All the time in the sky
Wanna stay up there all day
So let me fly
Let me fly like a bird in the sky
Let me fly-y-y
Getting away
So after today
Let me fly, fly, fly away
If you get lonely
You can't get along by yourself
If you're finding
You're needing me
Don't wait forever
For me to come a-following you
I'll wait here, you come back by yourself
And we can fly
We can fly like a bird in the sky
We can fly-y-y away
And we can climb really high
All the time in the sky
Gonna stay up there all day
Oh let me fly
Let me fly like a bird in the sky
Let me fly-y-y, getting away
So after today
Let me fly, fly, fly away

Never Too Late
The world is in a mess, it's finished more or less
It doesn't really matter
And it's never too late to change it
It's never too late to change it
Did you take a look? Any sort of look?
I'm sure you would remember
'Cos it wouldn't need much explaining
'Cos it's never too late for changing
The world is in a mess, and finished more or less
It doesn't really matter
And it's never too late to change it
It's never too late to change it
It's never too late for changing

Now this old sea dog's gonna get away 'cross the water
This old sea-dog is waving you bye-bye
But I don't think God thought we'd get out of order
This old sea-dog is waving you bye-bye
But now it's getting late, too late to hesitate
I can't wait any longer
So there's no use in you complaining
'Cos it's never too late for changing
Did you take a look? Any sort of look?
I'm sure you would remember
'Cos it wouldn't need much explaining
'Cos it's never too late for changing
I've told you once or twice it could be paradise
So listen when I'm talking to you
Shouldn't take much explaining
The world is gonna need some changes
Never too late to change it, never too late for changing
Never too late to change it, never too late for changing

Mountain Lady
You're climbing mountains in the sky
You're always looking for another high
You're looking so far ahead
You're looking away
I'm taking you in
You're taking me on
Your smiling face
Never lets you down
Where everyone who calls you a friend
Remebers your name
And everyone who called you a friend
Will never again
I'm taking a walk in your heart
I'm feeling my way through the dark
I'm taking a walk in your heart
I'm taking a walk in your heart
I've known the mountain ladies well
They live a never-ending fairytale
Where walking through another heart
Is all in a day
They treat me well
They treat me nice
They think that I'm gonna pay the price
So now I'm gonna put you straight
You're playing my game
I'm taking a walk in your heart
I'm feeling my way through the dark
Oh, I'm taking a walk in your heart
I'm taking a walk in your heart
There's never been a better reason
At any time before
'cos everything that we've been feeling
Is now an open door
And as the snow is falling
The mountains start to call
But do I feel you walking in my heart?
I'm taking a walk in your heart
I'm feeling my way through the dark
And I'm taking a walk in your heart
Yeah, I'm taking a walk in your heart
Oh, I'm feeling my way through the dark
Yeah I'm taking a walk in your heart

Still don't know what it's all about
I'm falling in falling out
I'm creeping in but I'm crawling out again
Falling in falling out
I'm giving up so I'm calling out to you
I bet you're thinking you where just a game
I bet you bet I can recall your name
Tonight tonight
How can I tell you if I can't get through
How can I make it if I'm not with you
Tonight tonight
I'm standing in line again
Waisting my time
I know I'd feel fine again
With you on the line
With you on the line
And I'm falling in falling out and
Still don't know what it's all about
I'm falling in falling out
I'm creeping in but I'm crawling out again
Falling in falling out
I'm giving up so I'm calling out to you
And I'm falling in falling out and
Still don't know what it's all about
I'm falling in falling out
I'm creeping in but I'm crawling out again
Falling in falling out
I'm giving up so I'm calling out to you
And I'm falling in falling out and
Still don't know what it's all about
I'm falling in falling out
I'm creeping in but I'm crawling out again
Falling in falling out
I'm giving up so I'm calling out to you
And I'm falling in...

Riverside
She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
She left me so downhearted there and I really cried
About mistakes I'd made and it's a crying shame
I can't believ the way they start all over again
She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
Without a word or a note, so I couldn't find
A reason for to stay where I wanted to stay
There didn't seem to me to be anyway
I got away from the city from the riverside
And it was oh, such a pity 'cos I really tried
It didn't make me feel how I wanted to feel
I turned around to be where I wanted to be
I got away from the city from the riverside
And it was all nitty gritty there, however I tried
I didn't wait to feel how I knew I would feel
I had to turn around, 'cos I wouldn't be found
Don't blame me or point your finger at me
I'm not blind and I see, don't point your finger at me
Don't you do it, don't you do it to me
Don't point your finger my way
Don't put the blame all my way
She found me so light-hearted by the riverside
She didn't cry or try and I didn't mind
'Cos I just had to stay wher I wanted to stay
And the mistakes I made, I made them anyway
She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
And it was oh, such a pity 'cos I really tried
It didn't make me feel how I wanted to feel
I turned around to be where I wanted to be
Don't blame me or point your finger at me
I'm not blind and I see, don't point your finger at me
Don't you do it, don't you do it to me
Don't point your finger my way
Don't put the blame all my way
She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
And it was oh, such a pity 'cos I really tried
It didn't make me feel how I wanted to feel
I turned around to be where I wanted to be
She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
Riverside, riverside...

Young Pretender
You thought that I would be so warm and tender
That love could be so very nice
I made a call to find suspicion on the line
Why couldn't you be all
I thought you wouldn't be a young pretender
Again too late I realise
The reasons now I find, conditions at the time
Did not allow for you to be
So don't you worry
I've got it all under control
Take time don't worry
I'm only halfway through a dream
Now love can really be so warm and tender
And can be oh so very nice
But not that way I said, too late too soon you said
Too soon, you said, too late to soon
So don't you worry
I've got it all under control
Take time don't worry
I'm only halfway through a dream
You thought that I would be so warm and tender
That love could be so very nice
I made a call to find suspicion on the line
Why couldn't you be all
I thought you wouldn't be a young pretender
A young pretender, be a young pretender
I thought you wouldn't be a young pretender
A young pretender, be a young pretender
I thought you wouldn't be a young pretender
A young pretender, be a young pretender...

Jealousy
Just jealousy, my jealousy
Is what you see doing me
Jealous of me, such jealousy
It shouldn't be - leave me alone
Time is running out, out runs the time
I waste it on my own
But don't think I'm alone
Oh no, not again, I won't reply
I can't stay on the phone
I'll see you back at home
I really did think that problem was solved
But it is not
Just jealousy, my jealousy
Is what you see doing me
Jealous of me, such jealousy
It shouldn't be - leave me alone
I've got another one, listen to me
And don't get all hung on
To things I have done wrong
Oh no, not again, I won't reply
It's only how I feel
It sometimes seems unreal
But everybody gets there once in a while
Are you wishing?
Just jealousy, my jealousy
Is what you see doing me
Jealous of me, such jealousy
It shouldn't be - leave me alone
Just jealousy, my jealousy
Is what you see doing me
Jealous of me, such jealousy
It shouldn't be - leave me alone

Resurrection
Sat by a river, wasting my time
I looked at the water and it gave me a sign
I made connection, my reflection
Was calling me back to rock and roll
It was moving, moving along
I looked a little closer and I thought of a song
And my raection was satisfaction
Calling me back to rock and roll
Calling, calling me back
I saw it in the water and I'm hitting the track
Nothing to pack, polish my act Lord
I'm gonna play some rock and roll
I was looking, looking ahead
Staying up instead of falling back into bed
Fuel injected, I've been elected
He's calling me back to rock and roll
It must be something, something He said
That's changing my mind and adjusting my head
A new direction, a resurrection
Calling me back to rock and roll
Calling, calling me back
I saw it in the water and I'm hitting the track
Nothing to pack, polish my act Lord
I'm gonna play some rock and roll

Big Man
I know where I'm heading for
I know what I wanna be
When they asked me at school what I wanted to be
That was all they got from me
I wanna be a big man, nobody putting me down
I wanna be a big man
They say love is all you need
But everyone needs to know
If you look a bit tough when you talk about love
I'm sure that love would grow
I wanna be a big man, nobody putting me down
I wanna be a big man, yeah yeah
Look around, see if I'm wrong
It's only a show for those who don't belong
I wanna be a big man, yeah yeah
I wanna be a big man, yeah yeah
I know what I'm living for
But there ain't no guarantee
If I make a wrong move you could jump in my shoes
And that ain't no good to me
I wanna be a big man, yeah yeah
I wanna be a big man, yeah yeah

Too Close To The Ground
When the light hits your eyes in the morning
And the fight to survive is braking you down
You see a chance for an answer to fill the empty spaces
But you still don't know what to do
You're too close to the ground
When the night closes in like an old friend
And the last of your pills is taking you down
You know the doctor's prescription ain't working like it used to
But you still don't know what to do
You're too close to the ground
Still going down
All your life you were waiting
Just to pass up the dream and leave my town
You blew your chance for an answer to fill the empty spaces
Oh, you just don't know what to do
You're too close to the ground
Too close to the ground
Still going down

Win Or Lose
Win or lose, lose or win
I ain't ever doing that again
Keeping out and never creeping in
No I ain't ever doing that again
I know I've done some silly things
But I ain't ever doing that again
No I ain't ever doing that again
Sailed away to foreign place
Not so far or hard to trace
I didn't wanna know
Knowing I had to go
Left my place of residence
Down the drive and past the fence
I'm coming back again
Wish I could tell you when
I never been away so long before
Surley now I must be sure
Win or lose, lose or win
I ain't ever doing that again
Keeping out and never creeping in
No I ain't ever doing that again
I know I've done some silly things
But I ain't ever doing that again
No I ain't ever doing that again
Got to one place really fine
Getting out to quite a time
A little trouble there
I didn't seem very fair
Tried to go we had a fight
So they made us stay the night
And it was harassing
Very embarrassing
That's another place that I have seen
A place I wish I haven't been
Win or lose, lose or win
I ain't ever doing that again
Keeping out and never creeping in
No I ain't ever doing that again
I know I've done some silly things
But I ain't ever doing that again
No I ain't ever doing that again
I ain't ever doing that again
No I ain't ever doing that again

Marguerita Time
Captured my heart
Captured my memory
Captured a time for me
I could see
A time for me
Is gonna be
Deep in my heart
Deep in my memory
Deep in a part of me
Heart of me
Meant to be history
Could it be that I'm still wondering
I never knew what had happened to me
I didn't think it was true
That I could be just like anyone else
I'll take my chance with you
Picture a dream
Picture a fantasy
Picture a mood of me
Mystery you and me a mystery
Lost in a dream
Lost in a fantasy
Lost in what seemed to be
Dreams to be
Seemed to be
Had to be
Couldn't find no other reason
I never knew what had happened to me
I didn't think it was true
That I could be just like anyone else
I'll take my chance with you
Lets have a drink
It's Marguerita time
It's Marguerita time
After nine
Summer time
Any time
You'll still always find me wondering
I never knew what had happened to me
I didn't think it was true
That I could be just like anyone else
I'll take my chance with you
