Lyric Scrapbook

        Before you start to glance through my scrap book of lyrics please understand that I did not intend for the colums to distract you, I meant for them to save space. I apologize for any confusion that they might cause while reading.
        � o�che go ho�che, mo thuras,
        An bealach fada romham.
        � l� go l�, mo thuras,
        na sc�alta na mbeidh a cho�ch.--Book of Days, Enya

        See these tears so blue
        An ageless heart that can never mend
        These tears can never dry
        A judgement made can never bend--Cat People, David Bowie

        And I'm gone gone gone
        Now I'm older than movies
        Let me dance away
        Now I'm wiser than dreams
        Let me fly fly fly
        While I'm touching tomorrow
        And I know who's there
        When silhouettes fall--Dead Man Walking, David Bowie

        Any social occasion, it's hello, how do you do
        All those introductions, I never miss my cue
        So before a question, so before a doubt
        My hand moves out and ...
        Wanting contact
        I'm wanting contact
        I'm wanting contact with you
        Shake those hands, shake those hands
        Give me the thing I understand
        Shake those hands, shake those hands--I have the Touch, Peter Gabriel

        love I get so lost, sometimes days pass and this emptiness fills my heart when I want to run away I drive off in my car but whichever way I go I come back to the place you are
        all my instincts, they return and the grand facade, so soon will burn without a noise, without my pride I reach out from the inside
        in your eyes the light the heat in your eyes I am complete in your eyes I see the doorway to a thousand churches in your eyes the resolution of all the fruitless searches in your eyes I see the light and the heat in your eyes oh, I want to be that complete I want to touch the light the heat I see in your eyes
        love, I don't like to see so much pain so much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away I get so tired of working so hard for out survival I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive
        and all my instincts, they return and the grand facade, so soon will burn without a noise, without my pride I reach out from the inside
        in your eyes the light the heat in your eyes I am complete in your eyes I see the doorway to a thousand churches in your eyes the resolution of all the fruitless searches in your eyes I see the light and the heat in your eyes oh, I want to be that complete I want to touch the light, the heat I see in your eyes in your eyes in your eyes in your eyes in your eyes--In Your Eyes, Peter Gabriel

        Our private life is subject to investigation
        No time to waste
        People say they heard about our deviation
        But you never looked so good
        Wear the fake fur, fake pearls for me
        And put on your mystery
        The way I feel you know I never keep you waiting
        in ultra chrome latex and steel--Electric Barbarella, Duran Duran

        Light a candle Lay flowers at the door For those who're left behind And those who've gone before Here it comes now Sure as silence follows rain The taste of you upon my lips The fingers in my brain Ever gentle as it kills me where I lay Who am I to resist? Who are you to fail?
        Got to get you out of my mind But I can't escape from the feeling As I try to leave the memory behind Without you what's left to believe in?
        And I cuold be so sorry For the way it had to go But now I feel your presence In a way I could not know And I wonder Do you ever feel the same In whispering darkness Do you ever hear my name?
        Got to get you out of my mind But I can't escape from the feeling As I try to leave the memory behind Without you, what's left to believe in?
        (Here in the back of your mind) How can you dare To become so real When you're just a ghost to me
        And I've got to get you out of my mind But I can't escape from the feeling As I try to leave the memory behind Without you, what's left to believe in? Here in the back of your mind� Deep in the back of your mind� Here in the back of your mind� Deep in the back of your mind� Deep in the back of your mind�--Out of my Mind, Duran Duran

        This just occurred to me
        A possibility
        The thought that you might really want to be me.--Who do you think you are, Duran Duran

        How many hours have I stared at my face in the mirror I get worried sometimes that the image will shatter
        No need to be scared You're gonna be so happy I built you a shrine Now you can be my icon No need to be scared Now you can Be My Icon
        I know this is real Believe it we belong together What ever happens You're gonna be with me forever
        Be my icon� You will be my icon Be my icon� you will be my icon--Be My Icon, Duran Duran

        As I watch you flickering slowly In the shadows, nothing to hold It's as if I don't recall our time before And would it be so wrong - not to remember?
        There are times I look at you differently Like I've never seen you before Funny after all we've done You could be someone I don't know at all Don't know you at all Catch me I don't want to fall
        But you pull the mountain from under me Look I'm dangling up in the blue And it's a cartoon coyote eternity Before I drop down to you What am I supposed to do now?
        There is something beautiful shining In the far off night of your hair Funny for a while it seemed to come from the sky But it's in your head Yes it fills your head
        You an I don't always fly Let me go I want to fall Deep into the dark But I'll come back to you
        And I'll always know how to find you Cause you shine like the midnight sun--Midnight Sun, Duran Duran

        Do you know how to feel? Do you know what it means?
        Rock a bye baby it's time to break The habit that you've fed, sweet sorrow while the cherished dead Blow in my mouth, every breath I take Although I need you I don't want to bleed for you
        So long suicide Gone right outta sight, outta mind Leave me alone and abandoned Hello, I'm alive I'm loaded alive, yes I know In my bones I know what it's going to do for me
        I steal the beauty and taste the hurt There's always time for pretty flowers growing in the dirt But time is your needle aimed to my heart And I must be hollow 'cos I can't follow there
        So long suicide Gone right outta sight, outta mind Leave me alone and abandoned Hello, I'm alive I'm loaded alive, and I know In my bones I know what I'm good for Hello I'm alive I'm loaded alive, yes I know In my bones I know what I'm doing
        I'm scared of being ordinary God I swear to live like anyone And you know it's hard to swallow But life goes on�
        And after all the crash and swell We are just human�
        The half dream shape of yesterday In bloom tomorrow�--So Long Suicide, Duran Duran

        Ich will mich nicht ver�ndern um dich zu imponieren, und nicht den ganzen Abend, Probleme diskutieren. Aber eines gebe ich zu, das, was ich will bist du.
        Ich will nicht garantieren, was ich nicht halten kann. Will mit dir was erleben, besser gleich als irgendwann. Ich gebe offen zu, das, was ich will bist du.
        Ohne dich schlafe ich heut' nacht ein. Ohne dich fahre ich heut' nacht nicht heim. Ohne dich komm ich heut nicht zu, Das was ich will bist du.
        Ohne dich schlafe ich heut' nacht ein. Ohne dich fahre ich heut' nacht nicht heim. Ohne dich komm ich heut nicht zu, Das was ich will bist du.
        Ich will nicht alles sein, und nicht so viel erkl�ren. Und nicht mit so viel Worten, den Augenblick zerst�ren. Aber eines gebe ich zu, das, was ich will bist du.
        Ich will auch nichts erz�hlen, was dich eh' nicht interessiert. Will mit dir was erleben, Was uns beide fasziniert. Und ich gebe offen zu, das, was ich will bist du.
        Ohne dich schlafe ich heut' nacht ein. Ohne dich fahre ich heut' nacht nicht heim. Ohne dich komm ich heut nicht zu, Das was ich will bist du.--Ohne Dich, Frieheit
