1. Na Na Na
Remember you in Ultra Marine
We take a drink sing Judy Teen
Now it seems so long ago
Here I am down on skid row
Can't find my way out of this maze
Pushed all the buttons
but the screen don't erase
Can't find my station on the radio
Want to tune in to the good news show
Didn't we move we slip and we slide
No downtown hustler
could take us for a ride
Yeah we could show them how
Won't you tell me where we are now
I read the writing sprayed on the wall
But the message doesn't reach me at all
I'm running in circles round and around
Spiral staircases taking me down
I think of you in colorful moods
Oh how we cried to All the Young Dudes
I just here I need T.V.
And it all comes back to me

2. I'm Yours
Catch me if you can
When I come your way
Catch me if you can
I'm falling like the rain
Everyday I see you
But you're so far away
Every way I love you
Don't you know I love you so
I would never ever let you go
I am yours
Whenever you want me
I am yours whenever you need me
All I do is dream of you
All through the night
Will I ever hold you
Don't you know I love you so
I would never ever let you go

3. Too Much Of A Good Thing
one of those nights can't go wrong i haven't felt this way for so long one of those nights when my luck is in they're saying yeah to what i'm asking one of those days when i sing along in perfect harmony to everybody's song one of those days when i feel so glad to be alive, it ain't so bad it's a feeling i've never known everything i touch seems to turn to gold it's a feeling that i want to keep but the river runs wide and so deep one of those nights can't go wrong i haven't been this way for so long one of those days that are so good will it last if only it could

4. Sure Looks Pretty
Never had no luck
never had no dreams at all
Never had a reason
To feel the way I do
When a soul train man
Sings do do do do to me
My heart is aching, baby
And I know where I should be
Never had no love
For a thousand years or more
Sometimes its easy
Sometimes it really gets me down
When a mowtown girl
Cries a melody
I'll know for sure, oh baby
Somewhere someone waits for me

Chased me from here to the other side of there
Another night inside but I don't care
Beat me up in the rain
Wrong man again
They're only.....etc.

5. Don't Let Go
Baby talk baby talk to me
Baby walk baby walk with me
If you're gonna hide away from everyone
By the way, can I come
Don't let go
Keep a hold of me
Don't let go
Get a grip of me
Baby baby let's have a little fun
Come on baby take a walk in the sun
If I wander will you tie me down
Don't want to play around
It's the way that I want it to be
You won't find another fool like me
Baby baby can you understand
Girl you've got me in your hand

6. Put Yourself In My Hands
There is nothing to be scared of
In my trap
Frightened of Love
Don't try to fight me
You might even like me

Sends a shiver down your spine
Told you that you would be mine
Hush baby now don't you cry
Oh don't you wanna die

Put yourself in my hands
I'll hold you tenderly
Put yourself in my hands
You'll be safe with me (x2)

Sometimes it's hard to bare
You can only stop and stare
When your life unfolds
And your soul is sold

If you should walk the world alone
You would never find a home
Come on take my hand
There is no promise land

Put yourself in my hands
I'll hold you tenderly
Put yourself in my hands
You'll be safe with me (x4)

Put yourself in my hands
I wanna take you in my arms
Put yourself in my hands
I wanna show you what I got

Put yourself in my hands
I wanna show you all I got
Put yourself in my hands
I prmoise you a lot

Put yourself in my hands
Oh yea my little angel
Put yourself in my hands
Oh Yea......

7. She's A Rocker
If you go down to that basement
Where the rhythm creeps
You may see a girl
Bopping to the beat
Swings her hips
And swings her hair
Sparkle in her eye
Somewhere in the darkness
She gets high
She's a rocker
And she likes to rock-n-roll
Tenderly she holds you
In her soft embrace
All she wants
All she says
Is dig that dig that bass
If you go down to that basement
Where the lights are low
You know she'll be there
Stealing the show
Like a fire burning
She's hot she's hot
Don't you hold back, baby
Give it what you got

8. Beauty Sleep
There you go weeping like a willow
Lay your head down on my pillow
Come one stop your poses
Come on it's a bed of roses
We can dream all night together
Or my nightmare could last forever
So sad the way cry
You've made your bed
Now you've got to lay in it
It's not so late around midnight
Blow out the candlelight
Let me rake you
Close your eyes
Let it make heave a sigh
Let's go to the land of darkness
Feel the sandman's
soft and sweet caress
When we wake
and raise our sleep heads
Will we remember
the dream things we said
There you go weeping like a willow
Lay your head down by my side
Come on come on baby
Come on girl you drive me crazy

9. Change
Talking about you
Down at Gino's
He said he'd seen you
Fooling around with John
Well what do you think
That you're doing with that loser
He's never one for hanging around too long
Something has gone wrong
And I can see the change in you
I was thinking maybe I should call you
We need to talk about the way you act
We've got to sit down
And work it out together
Cause you've changed and,
baby, that's a fact
Why do you seem so amused
You never used to be so cruel
Why am I confused
I can't believe it

10. Two Timing Me
I heard it from a friend
A friend of mine
Could it be the end
The end of time
Maybe it's just
Just pretend
I don't know
True love comes once in life
I used to think it was sugar and spice
Sugar and spice and all things nice
I'm not man enough for a girl like you
Is it her you love
Well ain't that cute
You left me for a lover of a different kind

11. Dangers
Well I just found out
Looks can kill
There's no doubt
Looks can kill
She didn't have to break my heart
She didn't have to tear my emotions apart
I thought that I turned to stone
I felt my blood run so cold
She did it but I don't know why
Why did she give me the evil eye
Well I just found out
Looks can kill
There's no doubt
Looks can kill
She cut me down to size
Cut me with her steely eyes

12. Coming Home
It's so late now
Where's that spark?
Help us out we're in the dark
Institute of correction
Point us in the right direction
I lost in a foreign land
Burning on the desert sand
We hitched a lift
On a camel train
Now we're heading for the rain
Wherever you go
We go a stray
Won't somebody show us the way
When the right road has been found
We will be homeward bound
