o shame
Cool, cool, Innocence
Virgin, untouched animal you can never tame
Can't believe my lyin' eyes
No matter how I try

Beauty, surround me, release me, astound me
Innocence, Decadence, Innocence
Breaks me down.

Cool, cool, Innocence
I can taste the sweet surrender on her lips
Cold, hard, Decadence
She's a lonely face that launched a thousand ships

Pure and white as the driven snow
Well, she don't know

The wicked ways of the world have not found her
Young, restless heart, blind to darkness
Around her

Cool, cool, Innocence,
Cool, cool, Innocence,
Cool, cool, Innocence.


3. True Beliver


Every day about this time
I lose my reason and my rhyme,
Everything around me's getting clearer.

Season's changing quickly,
My attitude is strictly here and now
The time is getting nearer.

But it's all right now
To run along with me
Maybe I'll make you see.
I'm a true believer,
A True Believer, baby
Any time or any place at all.

No matter what you heard before
You never know just what's in store
Until you've found the road you're taking.
But even now I'm killing time,
Believing you were only mine, I guess,
That rules were made for breaking.

Maybe time will tell
If you learned your lessons well.
So, have some faith in me.
I'm a true believe,
A True Believer, baby,
Any time or any place at all.
I'm a true believer
A True Believer, baby
Any time or any place at all.

Then in your sleep I saw you crying.
But I knew, those tears were not for me.
But it's all right now
To ride along with me.
Maybe I'll make you see.

I'm a true believer
A True Believer, baby.
Any time or any place at all
I'm a true believer
A True Believer, baby,
Any time or any place
I turn around and I see your face
Any time or any place at all
True Believer, True Believer, True Believer.


4. Body Double


What you see is what you get
The flavor stays the same.
Live a life of fantasy
Or lead a life of shame.
One goes here, one goes there
Illusion they create
I'll bet a million dollars you can't differentiate.

They'll lead you into the fire. Hot, hot.
Which one's the better liar?
Body Double

Mirror, mirror on the wall don't show me any lies
They can't get it wrong, no matter just how hard they try.

Twice as fun as anyone
Their trick's a treat for me.
I can't get enough of that split personality.

Teach me how you fooled the world again
Tell me how to make this game of love begin.
Show me differences that only I can tell.

Two of a kind
Only one in my mind
Body Double, Hot, hot
Body Double, Hot, hot

Which is which and who is who
It's all the same to me
Both completely different with the same identity
Back and forth for hours,
Up and down and in between
Something I can deal with doing single-handedly

Teach me how you fooled the world again
Tell me how to make this game of love begin.
Show me differences that only I can tell.
Two of a kind,
Only one in my mind
Body Double, Hot, hot

Double all your pleasure while they double all the fun.
Bending over backwards as you kiss the other one
Who's the girl you fell in love with?
Does she feel the same?
When the party's over baby,
I'm so glad you came.

Teach me how you fooled the world again
Tell me how to make this game of love begin.
Show me differences that only I can tell.
Two of a kind,
Only one in my mind
I'm still trying to find out
Which one had been mine.
Body Double, Hot, hot
Body Double, Hot, hot
Body Double, Body Double


5. See You Someday


Every now and then, I feel the autumn wind
And then I think of you
It lingers for a lifetime, and holds my breath in check
I don't know what to do.

Did you think I would see it coming
Turn around, look at me I'm running
Now, my love
Through the years, all the pain and suffering
Children's cries, amount to nothing
Rise above

What you see is what you get
Stake your life now, place your bet
You better believe I know, I'll be letting you go.

Will you ever know what I wanted to say?
Maybe you'll find a way
Maybe I'll be alright
Remember this night and I'll see you someday.

Many nights, I listened to
The sounds that made me cry and kept
My soul awake

But even in the darkness,
I could see the endless oceans
That our tears would make.

Why'd you lay our love to rest?
Gave it up, put it to the test of time, my love
My life's just not the same
Not a question of who's to blame,
I'll rise above

Don't you know that Love is War
That's what we're living for
You better believe I know,
I'll be letting you go

Will you ever know what I wanted to say?
Maybe you'll find a way
Maybe I'll be alright
Remember this night
And I'll see you someday.

Will you ever know what I wanted to say?
Maybe you'll find a way
Maybe I'll be alright

Remember this night, and I'll See You Someday.
Will you ever know what I wanted to say?
Maybe you'll find a way
Maybe I'll be alright
Remember this night, and I'll See Ya, I'll See You Someday


6. Living In The Grey


Now when your blue skies turn to grey
And your eyes still turn away
It's the time to let it go

Out of the dark will shine a light
Everything's in black and white
'Til you let your spirit grow.

Stars would shine above you
So everybody loved you
So why'd you go and throw it all away?

The Times, they are a-changing
My life is rearranging
I'm living in the grey, yeah.

Breathing with a reason
The everlasting season
I'm living in the grey, yeah.

So many years until today
Lost, but now you've found the way
An open mind can open eyes
So now you're open to the pain
Sitting naked in the rain
Well, I will dry the tears you cry.

Angels must have sent you
Coz everybody meant to give you time
But then you slipped away.

The Times, they are a-changing
My life is rearranging
I'm living in the grey, yeah.
Breathing with a reason
The everlasting season
I'm living in the grey, yeah.

Stars would shine above you
So everybody loved you
So why'd you go and throw it all away.

The Times, they are a-changing
My life is rearranging
I'm living in the grey, yeah.
Breathing with a reason
The everlasting season
I'm living in the grey, yeah.

The Times, they are a-changing
My life is rearranging
I'm living in the grey, yeah.
Breathing with a reason
The everlasting season
I'm living in the grey, yeah, yeah, yeah.

8. Dyin' To Live (Shades Of Blue)


I never looked behind me
Never saw the shadows smile
Never watched the red light warning
All I wanted was to be in touch with you.

Took a chance on inner healing.
Said it was the way to go
Find a way to make you happy
Can't do it, never could but what a show
Oh, no.

I look to you, you look to me
It's all the same, just one big game
You say it's me, I say it's you
You touched my love, with Shades of Blue

But maybe now
When you lose control
You'll see what I could give,
Trapped inside your heart,
I'm dyin' to live.

One man without a mission
Like an eagle, flying slow
I wanted to kiss the blue sky,
But all the clouds were hanging far too low.

And then one day, I looked away,
Into the air, the Lord was there.
He broke the sky, the sun flew by,
I died for you, Shades of Blue.

But maybe now
When you lose control
You'll see what I could give,
Trapped inside your heart,
I'm dyin' to live.

And if the moon is bright
The stars would all kiss you,
The colors of my heart
Are Shades of Blue.

But maybe now
When you lose control
You'll see what I could give,
Trapped inside your heart,
I'm dyin' to live.

When you lose control
You'll see what I could give,
Trapped inside your heart,
I'm dyin' to live, dyin' to live.
Dyin' to live.


9. Mercy


I can't seem to find the words to say the things I want to
Say to you, I must be burnin' out.
One night, a long, long time ago,
My mother told me I should go to you,
With all my thoughts and dreams.

Please, please tell me,
What you gonna do, when every princess comes to you singin'?

Lord have mercy, mercy on my soul,
Please have mercy, salvation for my soul.

It's just that I can't justify
How you can let them do the things they do.
Well, I'd let them have it good.

They laugh and totally forget,
That all creation is because of you,
How do you do such things?

Please, please tell me,
What you gonna do when all the losers cling to you, singin'?

Lord have mercy, mercy on my soul,
Please have mercy, salvation and some mercy, mercy, mercy
Mercy on my soul.

Lord have mercy, mercy on my soul,
Please have mercy, salvation for my soul.
Lord have mercy, mercy on my soul,
Please have mercy, salvation and some mercy, mercy, mercy,
Mercy on my soul.


10. The Promised Land


Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep.
And every moment I'm awake
I pray the Lord my soul to take.

Now as I walk down this winding road,
I need you to lighten the load.
Hey, now, take my hand,
I'll lead you to the Promised Land.

One cold December,
So long ago,
We watched the snow cling to the trees.

Your lips were so warm
As you kissed my hand
We would have sailed the seven seas.

But when you walked away,
Said you could not stay,
And love lay dying like a wounded dove.

But if you come back now,
I will take your hand
And lead you to the Promised Land.

Are you feeling lonely?
Do you need a friend?
Well, is the pain too much to stand?

The seeds of love
Are sown inside
And the memories of our lives will guide our hand.

So as you fly away
I will sing the day
And meet you in the Promised Land.
Take my hand to the Promised Land.

But when you walked away,
Said you could not stay,
And love lay bleeding like a wounded dove.
But if it needs to be
Then I will set you free.
And meet you in the Promised Land.
Take my hand to the Promised Land.

Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep.
And every moment I'm awake
I pray the Lord your soul to take


11. No Matter What


No matter what you are
I will always be with you
Doesn't matter what you do girl
Ooh girl, with you

No matter what you do
I will always be around
Won't you tell me what you've found girl ?
Ooh girl, won't you ?

Knock down the old grey wall
Be a part of it all.
Nothing to say, nothing to see, nothing to do
If you would give me all
I would you give it to you.
Nothing would be, nothing would be, nothing would be

No matter where you go
There will always be a place
Can't you see it in my face, girl ?
Ooh girl want you

Knock down the old grey wall
Be a part of it all.
Nothing to say, nothing to see, nothing to do
If you would give me all
I would you give it to you.
Nothing would be, nothing would be, nothing would be

No matter what you are
I will always be with you
Doesn't matter what you do girl
Ooh girl, with you

No matter what you do
I will always be around
Won't you tell me what you've found girl ?
Ooh girl, won't you ?

Ooh girl
You girl
Want you


12. She's My Salvation


I can move the mountains on a clear day,
But sometimes they can crash into the sea.
Look around, choose your poison.
Otherwise, you'll have no choice in living
Your life the way it's mean to be.

But one more believer is all that we need.
The scars on our knees is the proof that we bleed.
But I know, oh, I know
Where to go

Oh, cuz she's my salvation
When the world gets oh so lonely I escape.
She's my salvation.

One lover's pain is another man's relief.
But I know, oh, I know
This feeling's got to go.

When the time is right, you'll see a new way.
The road is paved with gold and leads you home again.

Bad news most everyday,
Wonder why I run away
Got to find a sanctuary.
Find your own peace in the rules that you make.

Believin' your eyes is the first big mistake.
But I know, oh, I know
Where to go.

Oh, cuz she's my salvation
When the world gets oh so lonely I escape.
Oh, now, she's my salvation.
One lover's pain is another man's relief.
But I know, oh, I know
This feeling's got to go.

Now she's my salvation
When the world gets oh so lonely I escape.
Oh, now she's my inspiration
Unspoken lies, another fool's belief.
But I know, oh, I know
This feeling's got to go.
She's my Salvation, She's my Salvation
She's my Salvation, She's my Salvation

The first big mistake is letting
The things around you get you down.
Find salvation in something or someone
And make that your sanctuary.
Unless you do this, you're lost.


13. A Moment Of Reflection
