Shattered Dreams

So much for your promises
They died the day you let me go
Caught up in a web of lies
But it was just too late to know

I thought it was you
Who would stand by my side

And now you've given me, given me
Nothing but shattered dreams, shattered dreams
Feel like I could run away, run away
From this empty heart

You said you'd die for me

Woke up to reality
And found the future not so bright
I dreamt the impossible
That maybe things could work out right

I thought it was you
Who would do me no wrong

(Chorus)

From this empty heart

I thought it was you who you'd die for love

(Chorus)

Oh no no no - you said you'd die for me
Oh oh, oh oh, die for me
So much for your promises

Heart of Gold

She's a girl who likes her living
Never tired of always giving
Faceless men pay for the pleasure
And the nights go on and on

(Chorus)
Walking in the street
For a handful money
Love don't come cheap
With a heart of gold
She's indiscreet

But to me, girl, it's funny
That they pay for the love
Of a girl with a pure
Heart of gold

She ain't hungry for a lover
When it's over, there's another
Loneliness won't be a problem
When the nights go on and on

(Chorus)
But something about her makes me cry
The light is fading from her eyes
Memories of girlish purity
Where love surrenders

...And the nights go on and on

(Chorus)

Turn Back the Clock

Another day is ended
And I still can't sleep
Remembering my yesterdays
I begin to weep
If I could have it over
Live my life again
I wouldn't change a single day

(Chorus)
I wish that I could turn back the clock
Bring the wheels of time to stop
Back to the days when life was so much better

Lying here in silence
Picture in my hand
Of a boy I still resemble
But I no longer understand
And as the tears run freely
How I realise they were the best years of my life

(Chorus)

You might say it's just
A case of giving up
No
But without these memories where is the love
Where is the love

If I could have it over
Live my life again
I wouldn't change a single day

(Chorus)

Why can't I turn back the clock
Bring the wheels of time to a stop
Back to the days
Oh no no
I remember when
Life was so good
I'd go back id I could
Oh oh I wouldn't change a single day
Don't let the memories slip away
I wouldn't change a single day
Don't let the memories slip away

Don't Say It's Love

We've had it good for years now
Don't let the change
We've never needed answers
To find the way

Now all of a sudden
Like waves on a beach
Love has come crashing down
The truth has been lost and found

(Chorus)
Don't say it's love, baby
'Cos you are to me
What you want to be
Don't say it's love, baby
If our friendship is to survive
Don't say it's love

We've shared so many secrets
Now kiss and tell
You make one move to love me
And it's farewell

'Cos somewhere there's someone
Who's waiting for you
To love you more than I could
Your heart was misunderstood

(Chorus)

Don't be a fool
You'll be alone in your confusion
If loving me is an illusion
Then let it go
Oh no no no no

Now I never counted
On ending this way
I always trusted fate
But if we are no too late

(Chorus)

...All you do is say it's love

What Other Reason

I've tried so hard
To make you understand
That this is not a lie
Believe in me
And if you take my hand
And look me in the eyes

(Chorus)
What other reason can I give to you
When I want you and I need you
What other reason can I give to you
When I want you, 'cos I love you

The two of us
Have got a fighting chance
But you don't want to win
Now is the time
You gotta, break the chains
But don't you dare give in

(Chorus)

How much stronger must I stay
Until you find out you believe
In love

(Chorus)

I Don't Want to be a Hero

Oh, send me off to war
With a gun in my hand
But I won't pull the trigger
Out destiny is here
'Neath the red, white and blue
So lead me to the slaughter

Now don't be afraid
Come and join the parade
For the ultimate in sacrifice
It's an old-fashioned story
Of hope and of glory
A ticket for taking life

(Chorus)
I, I don't want to be a hero
I don't want to die for you
I don't want to be a hero

Oh send me off to war
In a far away land
I never knew existed
Subject me to the truth
To the horror and pain
Until my mind is twisted

And what if I fail
Will you put me in jail
For a murder I will not commit?
'Cos you don't understand
Till there's blood on your hands
That it's time to forget and forgive

(Chorus)
And those who return
Come back only to learn
That they're hated by those who they love
'Cos you're not satisfied
Till the thousand will die
And your anger is paint for blood

(Chorus)

Listen

Cold by day, cold by night
I wonder where the summer's gone
Make no mistake, no mistake
I've got you find you

Well you can tell all your friends
That you found a way
Go tell them all that you've come to stay

(Chorus)
Just to listen, just to listen
Just to listen to your heart
(Repeat)

Take your chanced
Take your time
Let's take a slow dance out of here
Now I know, now I'm sure
I'm flying tonight

Well you can tell all your friends
That you found a way
Go tell them all that you're here to stay

(Chorus)

Oh no

Hot by day, hot by night
I wonder where the winter's gone
There's no mistake, no mistake
We feel the same way

Well you can tell all your friends
That you found a way
Go tell them all that you're here to stay

Different Seasons

There is a face deep in your mind
One that your heart won't leave behind
Memories are cold-empty of laughs
And all that remains are photographs

(Chorus)
When she's gone there are no reasons
Nature's cruel - it's just different seasons
Going on and on

There is a voice deep in your soul
Telling your not to lose control
And day after day you hold back the tears
'Cos pain is the greatest of your fears

(Chorus)

There are no reasons
Say it's only different seasons

Don't let it end this Way

The minutes are slipping away
As we say our last good bye
Bid the world a fond farewell
We'll share in a final begin to fade
It's a tale they had to tell

I'm wiping the tears from your face
Though I can't control myself
God have mercy on us all
The chapter has ended a story
That only just begun
First the rise and then the fall

(Chorus)
But don't let it end this way
Before you can go
There's something that I must say
Don't let it end this way
It's too late to cry
When winter has come to stay

I once had a book in my hand
That I didn't understand
Now I witness every page
So won't you come closer my love
Now our time has nearly come
Take a bow and leave the stage

(Chorus)

Now it's time to close your eyes

(Chorus)

Foolish Heart

I held your hand so fair
And like the morning sun
We cause an ancient rhyme
Oh I will laugh, I will cry
For you

Like the wind that blows
The stars that shine
The cool of night
My ivory Moon
The wind that calls
The stars will shine
And I will come
And you will say
This is enough
Of me and my foolish heart
My foolish heart

Oh you will take my hand
And we will wander far away
Oh you will take my hand
And I will follow

Down where the walls come crashing
Down where the proudest fall
Down where those fools come rushing in
To where they fell before
Down where the age has passed me
I will be sure
You will be there and I will belong
To me and my foolish heart
I will run to you
Hey Johnny
Where you gonna go
With that gun in your hand...
