I can see an image of you in my mind
I can see an image of you in my mind
and I can tell there's something that I must find
I could travel the world and never come close
Time can move so slowly
Sometimes it just stands still
and all my crazy worries
Just fade to dust and blow away
I can feel your image burning my brain
and I can tell I'm never, ever gonna be the same
There's no escape trapped in a memory unreal
Time can move so slowly
sometimes it just stands still
and all my crazy worries
Just fade to dust and blow away
I can see and image of you in my mind
and I can tell there's something that I must find
I could travel the world and never come close
Image in my mind, image in my mind, image in my mind, image in my mind, image in my mind

That girl’s name is Sunshine Tuff
She’s bulletproof rain
A laugh grenade
She’s the spike in the punch
Out in her 66 Dart
Tricked out for speed
Taking the lead
She’s breaking hearts
But Sunshine Tuff’s not fast enough
She’ll flash a smile and offer up
Her blood and soul, her physics book
Sunshine Tuff you’re a funny little throttle loving fool
Sunshine Tuff not fast enough
She’ll flash a smile and size you up
For heart and soul, a physics book
Sunshine Tuff you’re a funny little throttle loving fool
That’s the way of Sunshine Tuff
Ritual schemes
for quicksilver needs
Her foot’s off the clutch
Riding high and burning rings
Round your big ideas
And your Karmann Ghias
You don’t know anything
Sunshine Tuff not fast enough
To pagan gods she’ll offer up
Her blood and soul, her physics book
Sunshine Tuff you’re a funny little throttle loving fool

Tell You What It Means

They're digging up your bones
taking them to school
telling all the kiddies
you were a fool
Everyone is there
as wrong as wrong can be
laughing at your fate
and nobody's free
I can see why they're doing it
I know why they're scared
I saw things that shouldn't be
and I'll tell you what it means
Tell you what it means
Tell you what it means
Dancing in the graveyard
yelling at the dead
wishing that the truth
could be left unsaid
I can see why they're doing it
I know why they're scared
I saw things that shouldn't be
and I'll tell you what it means
Tell you what it means
Tell you what it means
Counting all you cigarettes and sleeping on the train
trying to remember who said that we are all to blame
I can see why they're doing it
I know why they're scared
I saw things That shouldn't be
and I'll tell you what it means
Tell you what it means
Tell you what it means

Somewhere, man it’s real
In an outer space world, bold ideals
So different for the young
Man, they’re not like anyone
They’re gonna bring the changes
It’s dangerous to let go
They’re gonna bring the changes
And they’re going to show (time in somewhere land)
Somewhere
Ba da da da
Somewhere
Ba da da da da
Somewhere
Ba da da da
Somewhere
Ba da da da da da
Somewhere, man they say
The past is in the way
Tomorrow is nearly here
Man, you’ve everything to fear
They’re gonna bring the changes
A normal man might cry
They’re gonna bring the changes
Going to be so high (time in somewhere land)
And they’re gonna bring the changes
It’s dangerous to let go
They’re gonna bring the changes
Changes they will show (time in somewhere land)
Somewhere
Ba da da da
Somewhere
Ba da da da da
Somewhere
Ba da da da
Somewhere
Ba da da da da da

If I should ever make you sad again, girl
If I should ever make you cry again, girl
Then I will leave tomorrow
and cast no giant shadow
and return when I know the ways of love
I ran away to fight the war again, girl
Now I'm coming home to sin no more again, girl
I will not make you lonely
I shall not cast a shadow
and will return to stake my claim
Sad Girl Of The High Country
I know that you will wait for me
Hold me in your loving arms
We'll sleep away through a hundred dawns

Two sides of the same coin
And what ya gonna do about it do about it
There’s no guarantee
Rolling round with me
And that’s fine fine fine
Flat’s ok
Heads up when you’re down.
We like to get roughed up
Cutting the cuffs
The penalties fine fine fine
Spending time cause we won’t be saved or put away
Two sides of the same coin
We’re two sides of the same coin baby
Two sides of the same coin
And what ya gonna do about it do about it
It’s all a matter of fact
Caught in the act
Shooting thru the slide slide slides
Looser than ties on a Friday night
We’ll never be counterfeit
Baby I’m used to it
Truth ain’t no disguise aye ayes
We’re making the grade like pieces of eight
Still no guarantee
Rolling round with me
And that’s fine fine fine
Flat’s ok
When I’m heads up you’re broke down
We’re gonna rough it all up
Cutting the cuffs
The penalties fine fine fine
Spending time cause we can’t be ever be saved
Never put us away
Two sides of the same coin
We’re two sides of the same coin baby
Two sides of the same coin
And what ya gonna do about it do about it
Two sides of the same coin
We’re two sides of the same coin baby
Two sides of the same coin
We’re two sides of the same coin baby
Yeah!

Everything I ever wanted
You're everything I ever needed
I stand alone, my world defeated
'cause you're so bad to me
Time and time again
I'm out on the ledge (34th floor)
and time and time again
I'm felling you push me (so hard)
What can I do?
What can I say?
Everything we always planned on
Everything we've worked so hard for
Lost it all in a foolish moment
'cause you're so unfair to me
Time and time again
I'm out on the ledge (34th floor)
and time and time again
I'm feeling you push me (so hard)
What can I do?
What can I say?
Will anyone help me?
Does anyone understand?
Can anyone save me at all?
Everything the way she wanted
Everyday it leaves me haunted
Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Save me, save me
Will anyone help me out there?
Oh, save me, save me
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

You think they love you
I know they hate you
They shove your face on the TV screen
A shooting star to sell a dream
Now you're all stitched up from the inside out
Ooooo sensation
You must realize
That we've been fed a million lies
They figure you out and they break your code
You're useless now on the side of the road
No more stardust for you to taste
Ooooo sensation
Ooooo sensation
It's not important for you to understand
but so important for you to take my hand
we live on shifting sand
lost in a HOSTILE land
of senastion
Ooooo sensation
Ooooo sensation
It's not important for you to understand
but so important for you to take my hand
we live on shifting sand
lost in a poisoned land
of sensation

Happy free securely blessed
No beauty could disturb my rest
My amorous heart was in despair
For a new victorious fair
Then you descending on our plains
In foreign force renew my chains
Where here you rule without control
The mighty sovereign of my soul
Soft danger there
Fair angel
You don’t care
Your smiles have more of conquering charm
Than all your native country's arms
Their troops we can expel with ease
Who vanquish only when we please
In your eyes oh there's the spell
Who can see them, and not rebel
You make us captives when you stay
Yet kill us if you go away
Soft danger there
Fair angel
You don’t care
I feed the flame within
Which so torments me
That it both pains my heart
And yet contents me
Tis such a pleasing smart
And I so love it
That I had rather die
Than once remove it
Yet she for whom I grieve
Shall never know it
My tongue does not betray
Nor my eyes show it
Not a sigh nor a tear
My pain discloses
But they fall silently
Like dew on roses

Sha la la la
Waking up in the Crying City
Looking for truth
Isn't it a pity
Crawling through the window
of a phony new tomorrow
Hanging around 'cause you've got no place to go
Hanging around 'cause the party's really gonna blow
Sha la la la
Beaten down in the Lying City
Looking for love
But given nothing
Crawling through the window
of a phony new tomorrow
Hanging around 'cause you've got no place to go
Hanging around 'cause the party's really gonna blow
Sha la la la
