Invisible Touch
(Banks / Collins / Rutherford)
Well I've been waiting, waiting here so long
But thinking nothing, nothing could go wrong, but now I know
She has a built-in ability
To take everything she sees
And now it seems I'm falling, falling for her
She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
She reaches in, grabs right hold of your heart
She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart.
I don't really know her, I only know her name
But she crawls under your skin, you're never quite the same, and now I know
She's got something you just can't trust
It's something mysterious
And now it seems I'm falling, falling for her
She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
She reaches in, grabs right hold of your heart
She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart.
She don't like losing, to her it's still a game
Though she'll mess up your life, you'll want her just the same, now I know
She has a built-in ability
To take everything she sees
And now it seems I've fallen, fallen for her.
She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
She reaches in, grabs right hold of your heart
She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart.
Tonight, Tonight, Tonight
(Banks / Collins / Rutherford)
I'm coming down, coming down like a monkey, but it's alright
Like a load on your back that you can't see but it's alright
Try to shake it loose, cut it free, let it go, get it away from me.
'Cos tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight.
I'm going down, going down, like a monkey, but it's alright
Try to pick yourself up, carry that weight that you can't see,
Don't you know t's alright
It's like a helter skelter, going down and down,
Round and round but just get it away from me
Because tonight, tonight, tonight
We're gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight
I got some money in my pocket, about ready to burn
I don't remember where I got it, I gotta get it to you
So please answer the phone, cos I keep calling, but you're never home
What am I gonna do?
'Cos Tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight
You keep telling me I've got everything; you say I've got everything I want
You keep telling me you're gonna help me, you're gonna help me, but you don't
But now I'm in too deep
It's got me so that I just can't sleep
Get me out of here; please get me out of here
Just help me, I'll do anything, anything if you just help me get out of here.
I'm coming down, coming down like a monkey, but it's alright
Like a load on your back that you can't see but it's alright
Try to shake it loose, cut it free, let it go,
But just get it away from me.
'Cos tonight, tonight, tonight
Maybe we'll make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Please get me out of here
Someone get me out of here
Just help me I'll do anything, anything
If you'll just help get me out of here
Tonight I'm gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight.
Land Of Confusion
(Banks / Collins / Rutherford)
I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street
Now did you read the news today?
They say the danger's gone away
But I can see the fires still alight
Burning into the night
Too many men
Too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go around
Can't you see
This is a land of confusion.
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in.
Superman where are you now?
Everything's gone wrong somehow
The men of steel, men of power
Are losing control by the hour.
This is the time
This is the place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go round
Tell me why; this is a land of confusion
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in
I remember long ago....
When the sun was shining
The stars were bright
All through the night
And the sound of your laughter
As I held you tight
So long ago...
I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know, we'll never keep
Too many men
Too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see?
This the land of confusion.
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth fighting for
This is the world we live in
And these are the names we're given
Stand up and let's start showing
Just where our lives are going to.
In Too Deep
(Banks / Collins / Rutherford)
All that time I was searching, nowhere to run to, it started me thinking
Wondering what I could make of my life, who'd be waiting
Asking all kinds of questions, to myself, but never finding the answers.
Crying at the top of my voice, no one listening
All this time, I still remember everything you said.
There's so much you promised, how could I ever forget
Listen, you know I love you, but I just can't take this
You know I love you, but I'm playing for keeps
Although I need you, I'm not gonna make this
You know I want to, but I'm in too deep
So listen, listen to me,
You must believe me
I can feel your eyes go thru me
But I don't know why
I know you're going, but I can't believe it's the way that you're leaving
It's like we never knew each other at all, it may be my fault.
I gave you too many reasons, being alone, when I didn't want to
I thought you'd always be there, I almost believed you
All this time, I still remember everything you said
There's so much you promised, how could I ever forget?
Listen, you know I love you, but I just can't take this
You know I love you, but I'm playing for keeps
Although I need you, I'm not gonna make this
You know I want to, but I'm in too deep
So listen, listen to me
I can feel your eyes o thru me
It seems I've spent too long
Only thinking about myself
Now I want to spend my life
Just caring bout somebody else
Listen, you know I love you, but I just can't take this
You know I love you, but I'm playing for keeps
Although I need you, I'm not gonna make this
You know I want to, but I'm in too deep.
Anything She Does
(Banks / Collins / Rutherford)
You know
You decorate the garage wall
Hang in people's halls
Live in secret drawers
If you could look around you
Wonder what you'd see.
Fiction
That's all you really are I know
Editorial dreams
They can't make you real,
Tell me where you came from
And where you're going to.
I won't ever: no I'll never get to know her,
Or be the cause of anything she does
I won't ever; no I'll never get to hold her
Do you think this aching could be love?
Oh you know.
You've figured in some fantasies
You would not believe
What you've had to do
Life goes on around you all because of you
I won't ever; no I'll never get to know her,
Or be the cause of anything she does
I won't ever, no I'll never get to hold her.
Do you think this aching could be love?
You know
That in twenty years or more
You'll still look the same
As you do today.
You'll still be a young girl,
When I'm old and grey.
I won't ever; no I'll never get to know her,
Or be the cause of anything she does.
I won't ever, no I'll never get to hold her
Do you think this aching could be love?
Domino
In The Glow Of The Night
(Banks / Collins / Rutherford)
The grey of evening fills the room,
No need to look outside
To see or feel the rain.
I reach across to touch her,
But I know that she's not there.
Rain keeps running down the window pane
Time is running out for me
Can't you see what you are doing to me?
Can't you see what you have done?
As I try to pass another long and sleepless night.
A hundred crazy voices call my name,
As I try to pass them by
I almost can believe that she is here
In the glow of the night
Do you know what you have done?
Do you know what you've begun?
Do you see we shall never be together again?
All of my life
Lonely people, empty rooms
Pointless violence, silent tombs
Could it be that we shall be together again?
Sheets of double glazing help to keep outside the night
Only foreign city sirens can cut through
Nylon sheets and blankets help to minimize the cold
But they can't keep out the chilling sounds
Will the nightmare soon give way to dreaming
That she is here with me?
In the glow of the night
Do you know what you have done?
Do you know what you've begun?
Do you see we shall never be together again?
Lonely people, empty rooms
Pointless violence, silent tombs
Could it be that we shall be together again?
The Last Domino
(Banks / Collins / Rutherford)
In silence and darkness
We held each other near that night
We prayed it would last forever
Blood on the windows
Millions of ordinary people are there
They gaze at the scenery
They act as if it is perfectly clear
Take a look at the mountains
Take a look at the beautiful river of blood
The liquid surrounds me
I fight to rise from this river of hell
I stare round about me
Children are swimming and playing with boats
Their features are changing
Their bodies dissolve and I am alone
Now see what you've gone and done
Now you never did see such a terrible thing
As was seen last night on T.V.
Maybe if we're lucky, they will show it again
Such a terrible thing to see
There's nothing you can do when you're the next in line
You've got to go domino
Now I'm one with the living and I'm feeling just fine
I know what I must do
Play the game of happiness and never let on
That it only lives on in a song
There's nothing you can do when you're the next in line
You've got to go domino
Do you know what you have done?
Do you know what you've begun?
In silence and darkness
Hold each other near tonight
For will it last forever?
There's nothing you can do when you're the next in line
You've got to go domino.
Throwing It All Away
(Banks / Collins / Rutherford)
Need I say I love you?
Need I say I care?
Need I say that emotions
Something we don't share
I don't want to be sitting here
trying to deceive you
Cos you know I know baby
I don't wanna go.
We cannot live together
We cannot live apart
That's the situation
I've known it from the start
Every time that I look at you
I can't see the future
Cos you know I know baby
I don't wanna go
Throwing it all away
Throwing it all away
Is there nothing that I can say
To make you change your mind?
I watch the world go round and round
And see mine turning upside down
You're throwing it all away
Who'll light up the darkness?
Who will hold your hand?
Who will find you the answers
When you don't understand?
Why should I have to be the one
Who has to convince you?
Cos you know I know baby
That I don't wanna go.
Some day you'll be sorry
Someday when you're free
Memories will remind you
That our love was meant to be
Late at night when you call my name
The only sound you'll hear
Is the sound of your voice calling
Calling after me
Just throwing it all away
Throwing it all away
There's nothing I can say
You're throwing it all away
