Remember that August night
    The last time I saw your face
    I heard you cry
    Terrified
    When they took you to another place
But now I can see you smile
    There's a wall that divides us
    Never forgive
    The right to live
    And all the love that they deny us
 Ready or not I'm coming
    And I'm gonna find you baby
    So you better start running
    Ready or not I'm coming
    And I'm gonna get to you
    No matter what they do
    Ready or not I'm coming
    Creeping up behind you baby
    Let me tell you something
    Ready or not I'm coming
    Bringing all my love to you
    But am I getting through?
Am I getting through?
I send all my love to you
    One chance to make it through
    Shadows fall
    Can't hear me call
    But my heart goes out to you
Ready or not I'm coming
    And I'm gonna find you baby
    So you better start running
    Ready or not I'm coming
    And I'm gonna get to you
    No matter what they do
    Ready or not I'm coming
    Creeping up behind you baby
    Let me tell you something
    Ready or not I'm coming
    Bringing all my love to you
    But am I getting through?
I'll never give up the fight
    Never be satisfied
    Till we stand
    Hand in hand
    Touching freedom on the other side
But it's getting harder now
    To live and take orders
    Risking my life
    Tonight's the night
    Heading over the border
Ready or not I'm coming
    And I'm gonna find you baby
    So you better start running
    Ready or not I'm coming
    And I'm gonna get to you
    No matter what they do
    Ready or not I'm coming
    Creeping up behind you baby
    Let me tell you something
    Ready or not I'm coming
    Bringing all my love to you
    But am I getting through?
  
When the day is over
    And the work is done
    Well it's a different story
    As the darkness comes around
    I tried to let you know
    You're going the wrong way
And the streets you thought
    Would all be paved with gold
    But when the wind cuts through
    You'd even try to sell your soul
    Everywhere you go
    It's the long way
Now you're no longer
    Just the boy next door
    When they were falling in love
    With that clean cut smile
    Change of style
    Just for a little while
 Whatcha doing, hey whatcha doing
    Walking through danger
    Can't see the wrong or the right
    Whatcha doing, tell me whatcha doing
    Can't be a stranger
    Must be a trick of the night
Well its a laugh a minute
    And you can't decide
    Between the burning question
    And the fortune in his eyes
    You never let it show
    Or take it the wrong way
Sometimes you wonder
    What you came here for
    Oh, they could tear you apart
    With those bare faced lies
    Can't disguise
    All the hurt you're feeling inside
Whatcha doing, hey whatcha doing
    Walking through danger
    Can't see the wrong or the right
    Whatcha doing, tell me whatcha doing
    Can't be a stranger
    Must be a trick of the night
Of the night, of the night
    Must be a trick of the night
When the day is over
    And the work is done
    Well it's a different story
    As the darkness comes around
And the streets you thought
    Would all be paved with gold
    But when the wind cuts through
    You'd even try to sell your soul
  
Scarlett lips, a silk embrace
    But there's no laughter in her face
    A crowded room is a lonely place full of lies
A wicked smile a shifting glance
    The passion light you feel at last
    Her pleasure somehow eased the pain
    Too late to chance it all again
 Before we kiss the world goodbye
    It's only a breath away
    One more dance before you die
    So tender as the music plays
 There's no emotion
    Only passion in your crime
    Killing the love that drives you out of your mind
    When you dance with a stranger
A spinning room a cool caress
    A try to hide my loneliness
    Cheek to cheek we let the evening drift by
The hollow mask has disappeared
    We drown our love through salty tears
    We speed at night like a racing car
    And now I see you as you really are
Before we kiss the world goodbye
    It's only a breath away
    One more dance before you die
    So tender as the music plays
 There's no emotion
    Only passion in your crime
    Love is the last thing on your mind
    When you dance with a stranger
Dance...
    Dance with a stranger
    Dance...
Before we kiss the world goodbye
    It's only a breath away
    One more dance before you die
    So tender as the music plays
There's no emotion
    Only passion in your crime
    Love is the last thing on your mind
    When you dance with a stranger
 Watching and waiting
    For the moment to arrive
    Dance with a stranger
    Love is the last thing on your mind
    When you dance with a stranger
There's no emotion
    Only passion in your crime
    Love is the last thing on your mind
    When you dance with a stranger
Love is easy
    No complications
    In a perfect world
Ooh, la la la la la la ah
His day is over
    It's just another night
    The same old faces
    Always pass him by
    His heart is willing
    But the world's so cold
    Oh how he longs for
    Someone real to hold
She takes the bus home
    To her usual place
    All kinds of people
    But they leave no trace
    She knows by now
    That dreams are not enough
    All she wanted
    Was someone real to love
And just as surely as the sun will rise
    Each one knows that there'll be no surprise
    Yet still each day they live in hope
    And try for more
    There must be someone
    Who's worth dying for
 Hmmm
    All we need is understanding
    Love is easy
    When boy meets girl
    Maybe tomorrow we'll try again
    No complications
    In a perfect world
Ooh, la la la la la la ah
Hmmm
    All we need is understanding
    Love is easy
    When boy meets girl
    Maybe tomorrow we'll try again
    No complications
    In a perfect world
In a perfect world
Ooh, la la la la la la ah
She'll sit and wonder
    Where it's all gonna end
    It's getting harder
    For the young to pretend
    Their dreams may never see
    The light of day
    It's not a perfect world
    That they have made
    Yet still each day they live in hope
    And try for more
    It's not a perfect world
    Their dreams may never see
    The light of day
    It's not a perfect world
    That they have made
    It's not a perfect world
Ooh, la la la la la la ah
Goddess on the mountain top
    Burning like a silver flame
    The summit of beauty and love
    And Venus was her name
CHORUS:
    She's got it
    Yeah, baby, she's got it
    I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
    At your desire
    Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
    At your desire
    
    Her weapons were her crystal eyes
    Making every man a man
    Black as the dark night she was
    Got what no-one else had
    Wa!
CHORUS
(Venus)
CHORUS
Goddess on the mountain top
    Burning like a silver flame
    The summit of beauty and love
    And Venus was her name
    Wow!
CHORUS
(Venus was her name)
Yeah baby she's got it
    Yeah baby she's got it
    ...
Non disturbaded
    Do not
    Disturb
We took the late flight
    Close to heaven in the cold half light
    All the pleasures of that very first night
    Crystal clear in my mind
    No complications
    Just another reservation
    In a beach hotel
    We found a room with a view
    Lock the door and change the sign
 Do not disturb
    Do Do Do not disturb
    Just you and me together
    Do not disturb
    Do Do Do not disturb
    This night could last forever
    Take your time
    When you read the sign
    It's in black and white
    In plain and simple terms
    Do not disturb
    Oh no
Where is the laughter
    I know there must have been
    A change of heart
    Oh I don't wanna stay here with you
    Now the sun won't shine
    This total isolation
    Seems to cloud our celebration
    While I'm waiting all alone in my room
    Trying to read between the lines
 Do not disturb
    Do Do Do not disturb
    Now we're not together
    Do not disturb
    Do Do Do not disturb
    This night could last forever
    Do not disturb
    Do Do Do not disturb
    Now we're not together
    Do not disturb
    Do Do Do not disturb
    This night could last forever
    Take your time
    When you read the sign
    It's in black and white
    In plain and simple terms
    Do not disturb
    Oh no
Do not...
    Oh no
    Non disturbaded
    Do not disturb
    Do not disturb
    Do not disturb
    Do Do Do not disturb
When she walks down Main street
    No-one ever passes her by
    The cars slow down men turn around
    While the other girls are left wondering why
Now give me one good reason
    Why they just don't leave her alone
    She won't stop or let you take a photograph
    But they say 'She's in a class of her own'
 I said 'Hey kid, come on down'
    They might turn your head around
    With good loving more or less
    Who' you trying to impress
    She don't need your good advice
    It's just straight ahead, she don't think twice
    We all need love I guess
    She ain't a cut above the rest
    She ain't a cut above the others
    No no no no
    She ain't a cut above the others
    A cut above the rest
    She ain't a cut above the others
    No no no no
    She ain't a cut above the others
Well, it's a false impression
    No one takes the time out to try
    She might look the part
    But in her heart of hearts
    Well she's really not so different inside
I said 'Hey kid, come on down'
    They might turn your head around
    With good loving more or less
    Who' you trying to impress
    She don't need your good advice
    It's just straight ahead, she don't think twice
    We all need love I guess
    She ain't a cut above the rest
    She ain't a cut above the others
    No no no no
    She ain't a cut above the others
    A cut above the rest
    She ain't a cut above the others
    No no no no
    She ain't a cut above the others
Lock me up in a room somewhere
    Get me out of the open air
    No perception of space or time
    And no peace of mind
Shut me out of the wind and rain
    Shelter me from the hurt and pain
    No temptation to lead me on
    Now that you're gone
 Won't you come to the rescue
    Take me to the promised land
    You've got the power to show me
    Love is at hand
    With you right here beside me
    Dancing barefoot in the sand
    Close your eyes and take me
    To the promised land
Bolt the windows and close the door
    Now there's nothing worth living for
    New direction is hard to find
    So leave me behind
Dim the lights and hang up the phone
    All I want is to be alone
    No connection with anyone
    I just can't go on
Won't you come to the rescue
    Take me to the promised land
    You've got the power to show me
    Love is at hand
    With you right here beside me
    Dancing barefoot in the sand
    Close your eyes and take me
    To the promised land
Take me to the promised land
    Take me to the promised land
    (Take me)
    To the promised land
    To the promised land
    Take me
Won't you come to the rescue
    Take me to the promised land
    You've got the power to show me
    Love is at hand
    With you right here beside me
    Dancing barefoot in the sand
    Close your eyes and take me
    To the promised land
Won't you come
    To the promised land
    Won't you come
    (To the rescue)
    To the promised land
    (Come to the rescue)
Hey boy

I've got what you want
    so don't hold back.
    Hey boy
    so come and get it
    let's have some fun
I wanna show you you're the only one.
    He said: you're too keen
    I said: I know what you mean.
    Deep down
    down inside
    it's a matter af fact.
Baby
    I'm waiting anticipating

    I said: you wait and see.
    Deep down
    down inside
    it's a matter of fact.

    it's more than physical...
    Baby

Deep down
    down inside
    it's a matter of fact.
    Baby
    I'm waiting anticipating

    it's more than physical...
    Baby
    I'm waiting anticipating
yes
    it's more than physical...
    Baby

Hooked on love
I saw a twelve year old, he had a plastic bag
    Another young man sucking on butane gas
    I saw them reaching for a hand to hold
    The next minute they were both stone cold
 Don't abuse your body
    Better use your brain
    This generation's going insane
    Better hooked on love
    (Hooked on love)
    That's a better drug
    (Hooked on love)
I found a young girl lying in a pool of blood
    She had the mark of needles and a lack of love
    I saw her friends who told her 'She's a fool to try'
    But never dream she was bound to die
Don't abuse your body
    Better use your brain
    This generation's going insane
    Better hooked on love
    (Hooked on love)
    That's a better drug
    (Hooked on love)
And when the street sharp man next comes around
    You better keep your head, you better stand your ground
    No matter what the pressure, never make a deal
    He might touch but he never can feel
Don't abuse your body
    Better use your brain
    This generation's going insane
    Better hooked on love
    (Hooked on love)
    That's a better drug
    (Hooked on love)
And then I saw you cruising' through the wild west end
    Can't change the habits of a lifetime debt
    Now you're moving closer to the killing floor
    You're half dead but you need to score
 So don't get your kicks
    For too high a price
    The next time won't be so nice
    Better hooked on love
    (Hooked on love)
    That's a better drug
    (Hooked on love)
If you're feeling bored without a thing to do
    You wanna be somebody then it's up to you
    I ain't trying to tell you how to live your life
    You might run but you never can hide
Don't abuse your body
    Better use your brain
    This generation's going insane
    Better hooked on love
    (Hooked on love)
    That's a better drug
    (Hooked on love)
    
    So don't get your kicks
    For too high a price
    The next time won't be so nice
    Better hooked on love
    (Hooked on love)
    That's a better drug
    (Hooked on love)
