Oh, oh, oh You run, run, runaway It's your heart that you betray Feeding on your hungry eyes I bet you're not so civilized Well, isn't love primitive? A wild gift that you wanna give Break out of captivity And follow me, stereo jungle child Love is the kill, your heart's still wild Shootin' at the walls of heartache Bang, bang I am the warrior Well, I am the warrior And heart to heart you'll win If you survive The warrior The warrior You talk, talk, talk to me Your eyes touch me physically Stay with me, we'll take the night As passion takes another bite Oh, oh Who's the hunter? Who's the game? I feel the beat call your name I hold you close in victory I don't wanna tame your animal style You won't be caged from the call of the wild Shootin' at the walls of heartache Bang, bang I am the warrior Well, I am the warrior And heart to heart you'll win If you survive The warrior The warrior I am the warrior Shootin' at the walls of heartache (Shootin' at the walls of heartache) The warrior I am the warrior And heart to heart you'll win Heart to heart you'll win If you survive The warrior The warrior Shootin' at the walls of heartache Bang, bang I am the warrior Yes, I am the warrior And victory is mine (Shootin' at the walls of heartache) The warrior I am the warrior Shootin' at the walls of heartache Bang, bang I am the warrior

The heat of the sun Was a little too much today Love on the wing Flew so high it just melted away So sweet on the run So little time to make you see What can't be undone Was maybe never meant to be But sometimes a fool Gets lucky and wins Sometimes the innocent pay For an old man's sin But when the amber light Of daylight's gone All I wanna feel Is the beat of a heart The street that night Had a little too much to say And the look in your eyes It was a little too far away But sometimes a fool Gets lucky and wins Sometimes the innocent pay For an old man's sin Sometimes a fool Gets lucky and wins Sometimes the innocent pay For an old man's sin But when the amber light Of daylight's gone All I wanna feel Is the beat of a heart Just a little life ticking away The beat of a heart You come take me far away Sometimes a fool Gets lucky and wins Sometimes the innocent pay For an old man's sin But when the tears are dark And we stand as one All I wanna feel And when the amber light Of daylight's gone All I wanna hear Is the beat of a heart The beat of a heart You come and take me far away
(Mike Chapman — Holly Knight)
Darling, darling darling, I'll never understand how sometimes Just the way you look at me Can tear my heart But then again Darling, darling, darling Don't look across the room 'Cause you might catch me looking at you Should we know what to say Or what to do So hold on Don't turn away There must be a hundred things We forgot to say How can we touch With our hands tied When only you know How much you keep me satisfied How can we explain This photo play locked up inside With our hands tied? Darling, darling, darling You think this love is blind Just remember Each time you squeeze her hand You crush my heart Oh and you just could be Driving me out of my mind Darling, darling, darling I'll never let it show As long as you go on leaving me I'll just fall apart each time you go So hold on Don't take my heart away She may be one good reason to leave But I'm a hundred reasons to stay How can we touch With our hands tied When only you know How much you keep me satisfied How can we explain This photo play locked up inside With our hands tied?

You tell me things I don't understand Confuse me, I know that's your plan Over and over we go on and on Lying until the night is gone We move in circles With our eyes on the door Saying so little Thinking much more Stranger and stranger we start to feel The night is over and nothing is real Here we go, just close your eyes 'Cause I'm gonna find a way Now you know I told you ten times before There isn't any other way Less than half of what you say is true But it doesn't matter to me or you You'll always find some way to get me by But don't fight it baby We move in circles With our eyes on the door Saying so little Thinking much more Stranger and stranger we start to feel The night is over and nothing is real Less than half of what you say is true It doesn't matter to me or you You'll always find some way to get me by But everything you've said was a lie So pull me closer to your heart that's no good And don't fight me baby
(Steve Perry — Neal Schon — Jonathan Cain)
Another night in any town You can hear the thunder of their cry Ahead of their time They wonder why In the shadows of a golden age A generation waits for dawn Brave carry on Bold and the strong Only the young can say They're free to fly away Sharing the same desires Burnin like wildfire They're seein' through the promises And all the lies they dare to tell Is it heaven or hell? They know very well Only the young can say They're free to fly away Sharing the same desires Burnin like wildfire Only the young can say They're free to fly away Sharing the same desires Burnin like wildfire Only the young can say Only the young can say Only the young can say Only the young can say Only the young can say
(Zack Smith — Patty Smyth — Benjy King)
So many years, you felt your life was not your own So many nights lying awake, you'd hear yourself saying But all this time, I've lived my life without even trying And all along, I knew my heart, I knew my eyes weren't lying But all I want is for you to feel like you're alive (All I want) All I want is to see some fire in your eyes So many times, yeah, the sound of the street would call to you So many ways I know that you could make your dreams come true But all you want is to find a world that's not your own And all you see (All you see) Is an outside chance to stand alone for what this is all about Can you see? Well, you run so fast, you'll burn your heart away Now and then, you'll have to see That it's only you, it's only me So many years, well you felt that your life was not your own So many nights lying awake, you'd hear yourself saying But all this time, I've lived my life without even trying And all along, you knew your heart, you knew your eyes weren't lying But all you want is to find a world that's not your own All you see (All you see) Is an outside chance to stand alone for what this is all about Can you see? Well, you run so fast, you'll burn your heart away Now and then, you'll have to see That it's only you, it's only me Yes it's only you, it's only me Oh, it's only you, it's only me (All I want, all I want) All I want (All I want) All I want (All I want) All I want

(Zack Smith — Patty Smyth)
You want to run, you want to hide You think the truth will go away And you won't have to decide I want you here, I want you now To tell me we can find a way And we will make it somehow Say what you will It's only a dream Do what you want It's only me Who just keeps turning away When I hear what you say 'Cause I don't know what I can do To make you look at me The way I used to be You want my world, you want a sign But I know your heart will never see And I will always be blind Say what you will It's only a dream Do what you want It's only me Who doesn't seem to know And I just won't let go Of this feeling that pulls at my heart So I'll just take it slow If you have to go Say what you will Say what you will It's only a dream Do what you want It's only me Who just keeps turning away When I hear what you say 'Cause I don't know what I can do To make you look at me The way I used to be

Maybe we went too far now baby Someone was watching you Maybe the joke's on me, I don't know Maybe the joke's on you Time will tell if your were Right or if you were wrong So run ahead if you can You've held back so long You didn't know I would Feel this way I didn't wanna believe Maybe we went too far now baby Someone was watching you Maybe the joke's on me, I don't know Maybe the joke's on you I don't talk in my sleep I have too much to tell Oh some secrets are sweet I know that too well But who would've thought I would feel this way When did the lights Come back on Maybe we went too far now baby Someone was watching you Maybe the joke's on me, I don't know Maybe the joke's on you But maybe we went too far now baby Maybe not far enough And maybe I like the danger late at night When you don't talk so much
