Lyrics

Soul Deep
03:38
Also available on:
Save a prayer for a sinner and a saint, my baby's coming back.
Say a prayer, hide hide away yea baby's coming back.
He-He-Hey Ain't gonna trouble his wanderings mind,
gonna take on the time to find out if my love is

Soul Deep - spinning the heart round a wire,
Soul Deep - a heavenly wave,
Soul Deep - heating the heart like a fire,
Soul Deep - is taking by breath away-ay-ay.

Save a tear till the curtain will fall,
well, I'm saving them all for you.
Knock on wood, is it understood
that I'm saving it up for you.

He-He-Hey Love is a hustle just a moment behind,
gonna walk on the line to find out if my love is Soul Deep...

Save a prayer for a sinner and a saint, my baby's coming back.
Say a prayer, hide hide away yea yea. Baby's coming back.
He-He-Hey Ride on the Soul Train now I'm too close to hide,
gonna take on the time to find out if my love is Soul Deep
Secrets That She Keeps
03:42
I move all right, I got the wheels going round,
making ways in the night.
Yea we're movin' all right, wipin' the rain from the ground
and the pale from the sky,
but something happens in his heart when the morning comes.

The secret that she keeps away from me,
the tears on the pillow she don't want me to see,
well every little thing she does is for me
but somebody new is breaking us it two.

He's the kind of love that makes a whirl in your mind,
like the tide and the time.
With just a little bit o'soul he fights to find peace of mind
in these shattering eyes,
but something happens in his heart when the morning comes.

The secrets that she keeps away from me...

The love of you and me.
Goodbye to You
04:01
Goodbye to you, goodbye to broken hearts,
goodbye to romance, hidin in the dark,
nights that leave a scar.

Goodbye to you, goodbye to empty card,
goodbye to this ball of bliss,
I'm dancing from your arms.

And I fill the bedroom with silent visions of rain.
And I paint the morning with echoes from pleasure in pain.
I don't want to touch emotions, I just got to run away.
Electric blue like oceans, wild like lovers sway.

Goodbye to you...

And I seal the pillow and shatter dreams down the hall.
And I hang the heartache like pictures on the wall.
Can you hear the sound of angels playing hurting games?
Well, I'm a stranger when I'm leaving,
I was a stranger when I came.
I Call Your Name
03:37
It's a madman situation
Reminiscing in the rain
And I've lost your love again
I call your name

And I don't wanna think about it
When I go to sleep at night
Can you hear it in the wind?
I call your name

I call your name

And I close the door behind me
And I turn the lights all down
There's noone there besides me
I call your name

And I don't wanna think about it
But I wind up all the same
Nothing'll ever change
I call your name

Lie awake under the stars
I call your name
Surrender
04:20
She knows I'd do anything she wants me to
The love she finds, is deeper than the ocean
She knows I'd do anything she wants me to
A river of dew, warmer than the dawning

Surrender - tie the cover to the ground
But don't turn around and walk away again.
Don't turn around and walk away again.

He knows I'd say anything he wants to hear.
Bright and clear calls the voice of lovers.
He knows I'd do anything he wants me to.
like ruby rain, I wash away the pain.

Surrender - tie the cover to the ground
But don't turn around and walk away again.
Don't turn me down and walk away again.
Voices
04:42
I knew the would happen and I don't want to be around when it gets out.
I've closed the last picture and painted the window inside and out.
Give me your dreams and I'll give you my time,
together we'll cross the borderline.

Voices - cracking the night.
Voices - that cut like a knife.
Voices - hear the singing: Ooh ooh.

From sparks to the fire, from here to obsession they cover the end.
Twisting a match and see the reflection of hunters of men.
Give me your dreams and I'll give you my time
until we make it to the borderline.

Voices - cracking the night.
Voices - that cut like a knife.
Voices - hear them singing.
Neverending Love
03:27
Chasing your shadow, the senses together,
four-leafed and clever I come from behind.
Chasing your shadow, I wonder in circles,
you're one in a million, we're two of a kind.

It's you that I long for, it's you that I hunger,
oh you are the maker of waves in my mind.

We dance in the moonlight, a run on the wire,
drawing a fine line, a neverending love.
The fever turns slowly into a fire,
drawing a fine line a neverending love.

Chasing your shadow, moon and the water,
field and the reaper, star and the sky.
Chasing your shadow, hammer and heartbeat,
clay and new concrete, I follow the signs.

It's you that I long for, it's you that I hunger
and you are the maker of waves in my mind.

We dance in the moonlight, a run on the wire,
drawing a fine line, a neverending love.
The fever turns slowly into a fire,
drawing a fine line a neverending love.
Call of the Wild
04:30
I know her and every notion i get from her i wear inside me
I know her all of the broken leaves of love she leaves behind
don't you hide away from the rain,
can you tell me the name of this game
I gotta get through to you

Behind the door, another wall, a lonely cry, a call of the wild,
a dancing daze, an empty face, a crystal high
a call of the wild.

And there is something that sweeps the dark
a lover's dart, the call of a broken heart.
Wrapped in the night, behind these eyes, oh hear the cry
a call of the wild
Joy of a Toy
03:04
You wake me up in the middle of the night and burn the cover down
You're on the phone, in the air, like a record try to spin me round
Oh won't you move away, oh oh oh, oh honey get away, oh oh oh

The joy of a toy - is it all that you came for?
The joy of a toy got the look of a lie
The joy of a toy put the hurt into action
The joy of a toy - you can kiss this love goodbye

How can you win when you don't know a thing what love is all about?
Don't want to fight so get out of my sight, I won't surrender now
It's Independence day, oh oh oh, oh honey get away, oh oh oh

The joy of a toy - is it all that you came for?
The joy of a toy got the look of a lie
The joy of a toy put the hurt into action
The joy of a toy - you can kiss this love goodbye

Hello, Goodbye
From One Heart to Another
04:08
Echoes of loneliness
Traces from love affairs
Will never disappear
Always come through

And I thought I'd never know
The time to see you go
Two people turn into one
Thinking as one

A hint in the night
The touch of a dream
Has come to an end
We run from one heart to another again
The rose of our love has whithered and torn
And gone from one heart to another again
Like Lovers Do
03:22
Take the line between us, and hold it close to you,
I want us to get together, like lovers do.
Let me kiss away your troubles, the cold and lonely nights,
Just take this heart I'm giving, and love is on the rise.

Like lovers do - want to hold you thru the night
Like lovers do - and when I look into your eyes
Like lovers do - oh I'm drowning in an ocean of emotion.

It feels just like forever, since I made love to you,
September days of scarlet, April morning dew.
So take the love between us, and hold it close to you,
I want us to get together, like lovers do.

Like lovers do...
So Far Away
05:17
Also available on:
In the coldest time of year, darkeness all around my heart.
I was alone but didn't fear to wander in the lights of stars.
In the bright and silent night, winds would knock and disappear.
Still I felt the feeling near, like the first time you were ever hear.

You're so far away, so far away,
you left me, you told me you would stay.
You never say goodbye and I keep wondering why,
I keep wondering how, oh come unto me now.

I have breathed the morning air, I have heard the four winds blow.
I was weary but prepared to follow down this lonely road.
In the room where lovers sleep, winds would knock and disappear.
Still I felt the music near, like the first time you were ever here.

You're so far away, so far away,
you left me, you told me you would stay.
You never said goodbye and I keep wondering why,
I keep wondering how, oh come inside me now.
