Let Love Come lyrics - Go West

I woke up she was gone
I got a good idea who she'll blame it on
Heaven sent hell to pay
She was candy sweet when she got her way
Guess I should be out crying in the rain
But it's such a beautiful day

So I say to myself
I will save my soul for somebody else
Easy come easy go
When I work it out you'll be the first to know
Guess I should be lost in the mystery
But it's such a beautiful day

You gotta let love come to you
You gotta let love come to you
You can't just turn it on
You gotta let love come to you

Make a wish, say a prayer
Neither one is gonna get you anywhere
Might as well take a drive
You could find an angel waiting at the light
Maybe drop the top - blow your cares away
Isn't it a beautiful day?

You gotta let love come to you
You gotta let love come to you
You can't just turn it on
You gotta let love come to you

Stars Don't Shine lyrics - Go West

Minutes into hours
Hours into days
How do I still love you?
Let me count the ways
I was watching through the window
When you showed me the door
To another world
To another world..

Talked to me in colours
I'd never seen before
Painted me a picture of
All I've been wishing for
Seduced me with illusion
And then walked out the door
To another world
To another world..

And now the stars don't shine
The way they did when you were mine
The stars don't shine
You stole the diamonds from the sky
I'm lost without your spark
The night is dark
And the stars don't shine
The stars don't shine on me

Spring will follow winter
The sun will melt the snow
And when you love somebody
You've got to let them know
So I watched you through the window
As you walked down the road
To another world
To another world

And now the stars don't shine
The way they did when you were mine
The stars don't shine
You stole the diamonds from the sky
I'm lost without your spark
The night is dark
And the stars don't shine..

Man On Fire lyrics - Go West

I walked the world alone
I was rolling like a stone
A heart without a home
I saw cities all the same
Full of faces with no names
I was searching for the flame inside
A flame that almost died..

But one touch from you
Man on fire
Whatever you do takes me higher
I'm shot up with desire
Man on fire

Set sail on the ocean wide
I was driftwood on the tide
Reaching for the other side
Crossed the desert through the night
Between the shadows and the light
I was waiting for the sun to rise
I saw it in your eyes..

Just one touch from you
Man on fire
Whatever you do takes me higher
Out of a lonely blue sky
I'm shot up with desire
Man on fire

Now I'm somebody else
A stranger to myself
I've never felt this way before
You gotta give me more

'cause one touch from you
Man on fire
Whatever you do takes me higher
Out of a lonely blue sky
Just one touch from you
Man on fire

Now I feel

Lolita lyrics - Go West

Lolita
She make summer sweeter
She cool like granita
A little heartbreaker
Surrender
You'll never forget her
She own you forever
She will if you let her

Jewelled belly flat and brown
Hides her promise, eyes cast down
Turning heads all over town
Everywhere she goes

Lolita
She make summer sweeter
She do something to ya
The moment you meet her
I tell ya
One look and it's over
She get to ya mister
No one can resist her

Crystal eyes and perfect skin
Angel smile so innocent
Making slaves of fools and kings
Everywhere she goes

Lolita
She make summer sweeter
She cool like granita
A little heart breaker
Surrender
You'll never forget her
She own you forever
She will if you let her

Jewelled belly flat and brown
Hides her promise, eyes cast down
Turning heads all over town
Everywhere she goes
Everywhere she goes

Glow lyrics - Go West

It's after midnight and I'm lost in you
Nobody ever made me feel the way you do
It won't be long before the day is new
But I don't want to close my eyes

Cause every minute that you're here with me
Is one more minute that I'm where I want to be
And though there's almost nothing left of me
I don't want to close my eyes..

I want to watch you glow
Cause I can sleep tomorrow
But baby tonight
I want to watch you glow
So you dream sweet
And I'll turn out the light
So I can watch you glow

Tangled together feeling skin on skin
I want to take you to a place you've never been
And when you whisper you're surrendering
I don't want to close my eyes

I want to watch you glow
'cause I can sleep tomorrow
But baby tonight
I want to watch you glow
So you dream sweet
And I'll turn out the light

Just kiss me one more time
Baby I know it's late
The sandman calls
And he won't wait
So lie back in my arms
And I won't let you go
I want to watch you glow

I don't want to close my eyes
I want to watch you glow

Only Love lyrics - Go West

Hey I'm caught up in the web you weave
The perfect storm a siren's song
You carry me away
Hey I'm tangled in the lies you tell
A honey trap no way back
I'm just a game you play
I'm in the wind I twist and turn
You light a flame in me
And you let me burn
But you give me nothing in return

And it's only love that brings me back to you
Right or wrong no matter what I do
Only love strong and true
It's only love that's taken hold of me
Fools my heart and fades my memory
Only love can stop the rain
Only love can make me stay
Only love..

Hey I lose myself in reverie,
You cast a spell so I can't tell
The water from the wine
Hey like a fever coming over me
I get so high that I can't find
The reason or the rhyme
You break my heart you bruise my soul
You tear my world apart
And you make me whole
I can't hold on I can't let go

And it's only love that brings me back to you
Right or wrong no matter what I do
Only love strong and true
It's only love that's taken hold of me
Fools my heart and fades my memory
Only love can stop the rain
Only love can make me stay

Never Enough lyrics - Go West

Since the day I was born
Had the feeling something's wrong
With my circuitry
Something shorting inside
Cause I'm never satisfied
Will I ever be?
I know only fools believe in picture perfect love

Got a sign on my wall
Says 'you can't have it all
But try anyway
I keep wondering if there's
Something better somewhere
On some other day
I can't even tell you what it is I'm dreaming of

But it's never enough
I can't help myself
It's never enough
What's a man to do?
I can't help it
I can't help it

Will I find state of grace,
Is there something out of place
In my chemistry?
Cause I can't give it up
Always one more for luck
I can't let it be
I know only fools believe in picture perfect love

But it's never enough
I can't help myself
It's never enough
What's a man to do?

Give me just one more, just one more, just one more
I won't be happy till I'm face down on the floor
Face down on the floor
I can't help it

I can't even tell you what it is I'm dreaming of
But it's never enough

Faded lyrics - Go West

Going down sinking into the blue
I'm no good when I'm this way
I could drown trying to hold on to you
You already got away
Didn't you say that I was your light?
Like a new star in the midnight sky

I guess I faded
Now you look through me like I'm no one
When I'm standing right here
And I feel like I might disappear
Any hope I held onto
Any dream of me and you
Has faded

Giving up isn't easy for me
I don't want to let you go
I'm in love I don't want to be free
You are all I want to know
Didn't you tell me I was the one?
Didn't I burn brighter than the sun?

I guess I faded
Now you look through me like I'm no one
When I'm standing right here
And I feel like I might disappear
Any hope I held onto
Any dream of me and you
Has faded

And I know it's time to walk away
I know there's nothing more to say
I've already faded

All Day, All Night lyrics - Go West

Anyone can see
All I wanna be is by your side
What you do to me
Makes me feel like I light up inside
And I don't care what they say, baby
I love your way with me
When I look into your eyes
I see just what I want to see
Cause you make me believe

You know I dream about you girl - all day
Until the minute I can get away
Cause I'm in heaven in your arms all night
And all I wanna do is hold you tight
I never knew I could be so in love
I feel like I can never get enough
It can't be wrong because it feels so right
That's why I love you all day all night

You are all I need
You're my lover yeah, you're my best friend
And I feel incomplete
'til I'm lying in your arms again
So I don't care what they say, baby
I love your way with me
When I look into your eyes
I see just what I want to see
Cause you make me believe

You know I dream about you girl all day
Until the minute I can get away
Cause I'm in heaven in your arms all night
And all I wanna do is hold you tight
I never knew I could be so in love
I feel like I can never get enough
It can't be wrong because it feels so right
That's why I love you all day all night

Any one can see
All I wanna be is by your side
And I don't care what they say, baby
I love your way with me

Hangin' On For Dear Life lyrics - Go West

My, my how things have changed
All of my friends family men
PC and PTA
And no one's coming out to play
They think I've got it made
And so I smile, and I pretend
Yeah I'm a lucky guy
But on the inside

I'm just hangin' on for dear life
Waiting for the wind to change
Running in circles
Trying to make a getaway
Hangin' on for dear life
Gettin' harder every day
Tryin' to get you off my mind
Ever since you went away

Maybe it's been too long
For me to say that I was wrong
But if it's not too late
I wanna set the record straight
Why try to hide the truth?
You know that I could never lie to you
You can see behind my smile
You can see inside

I'm just hangin' on baby
Waiting for the wind to change
Round and round
Got to make a getaway
Hangin' on
Gets harder every day
I can't get you off my mind
Ever since you went away

I got no one I can run to
No one to turn to I know
That's the price I gotta pay
Every minute every day
I got nothing to come home to
Living without you
I'm hangin' on for dear life
Hangin' on

You could always see behind my smile
You can see inside

Indian Summer (1992)

Oooooooh, I will

Don't cry baby
Kiss me and say farewell
Nothing's gonna break the spell

Still In Love lyrics - Go West

I can still remember
How you first captured me
Stars in my eyes
Promising forever
There would be no more tears
And no more goodbyes..
Tell me we're

Still in love
Am I the only one
Still in love?
Am I the one you've been dreaming of?
'cause I'm still in love with you..

There will be temptation
Certain as gravity-
Hard to defy
But even in temptation
If it is strong enough
Then love will survive..
Tell me we're

Still in love
Am I the only one
Still in love?
Am I the one you've been dreaming of?
'cause I'm still in love with you
Just say you remember me baby

Tell me we're still in love
Am I the only one
Still in love
Am I the one you've been dreaming of?
'cause I'm still in love with you
Still in love with you..

And if all I have to do
Is stay true to you
Well if that's all it takes
To get through to you
I'm ready girl - I've got nothing to hide..

Still in love
Am I the only one
Still in love..

Tell Me lyrics - Go West

People say that you never
Miss what you've got till it's gone
But I found you and I wondered
How I got by on my own

Seemed like the star that I wished on
Was right there by my side
And I've been in pieces
Since the day you said goodbye, girl

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Tell me where I went wrong
Show me, show me, show me, show me
How to be strong

'Cause all that I needed was someone like you
Now that you're gone, what can I do?
Tell me, tell me

With the face of an angel
And a heart of gold
You were my shoulder to cry on
My flesh and blood, Venus to hold

But something was wrong with this picture
Wish that I'd seen it too
'Cause my dream was over
When I woke up without you, girl

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Tell me where I went wrong
Show me, show me, show me, show me
How to be strong

'Cause all that I needed
Was someone like you
Someone I thought I really knew
Tell me, tell me

Was it my imagination?
Was my head up in the clouds?
I can't believe you'd build me up
Just to tear me down

But you left no explanation
And I just can't work it out
Why say time was on our side
When time was running out?

You've got to tell me, tell me

Baby, I've been in pieces
Since the day you said goodbye, girl

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, baby
Tell me where I went wrong
Show me, show me, show me, show me
How to be strong

'Cause all that I needed was someone like you
Now that you're gone, what can I do?
Tell me, tell me, got to tell me, tell me

Tell me, baby, how to be strong
Show me, show me, show me, show me
You got to tell me, tell me

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Now you tell me time was on our side
Show me, show me, show me, show me
Tell me, tell me

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Baby I don't know, well
Show me, show me, show me, show me
Tell me, tell me

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me

That's What Love Can Do lyrics - Go West

Look in the mirror
The face is familiar
But not the one I used to see
Got a fever-can't shake it
There's no way to break it
Something's got a hold on me
And I can't give it up
I won't give it up
It feels good to me
But I don't know the man
Standing in my shoes..
That's what love can do
Turn a wise man to a fool
That's what love can do to you
And I lose my head every time I see you..
That's what love can do to you

Bitter tastes sweet
I'm dreaming on my feet
I'm looking for the missing clue
Heartbeat jumping
I never saw it coming
Hit me right out of the blue
And I can't give it up
I won't give it up
It feels good to me
But I don't know the man
Standing in my shoes..

That's what love can do
Turn a wise man to a fool
That's what love can do to you
And it turns my world around
That's what love can do
Well it's crazy but its true
That's what love can do to you
And I lose my head every time I see you
That's what love can do

I've found a new game to play
It's taken my breath away
I'm on top of the world
Looking at you-how can I lose?

And I can't give it up
It feels good to me
But I don't know the man
Standing in my shoes..

That's what love can do..

What You Won't Do For Love lyrics - Go West

(originally by Bobby Caldwell)

I guess you wonder where I've been
I searched to find the love within
And I came back to let you know
Got a thing for you and I can't let go

My friends wonder what is wrong with me
But I'm in a daze from your love, you see
And I came back to let you know
Got a thing for you and I can't let go

Some people go around the world for love
But they may never find what they dream of
What you won't do, do for love
You've tried everything but you won't give up
In my world, only you make me do
For love what I would not do

My friends wonder what is wrong with me
But I'm in a daze from your love, you see
And I came back to let you know
Got a thing for you and I can't let go

And though I only want the best it's true
I can't believe the things I do for you
What you won't do, do for love
You've tried everything but you won't give up
In my world, only you make me do
For love what I would not do

What you won't do, do for love
You've tried everything but you won't give up
In my world, only you, only you make me do
For love what I would not do
Make me do for love what I would not do
Make me do for love

What you won't do, do for love
You've tried everything but you won't give up
In my world, only you make me do

King Of Wishful Thinking lyrics - Go West

I don't need to fall at your feet
Just 'cause you cut me to the bone
And I won't miss the way that you kiss me
We were never carved in stone
If I don't listen to the talk of the town
Then maybe I can fool myself...

I'll get over you... I know I will
I'll pretend my ship's not sinking
And I'll tell myself I'm over you
'Cause I'm the king of wishful thinking
I am the king of wishful thinking

I refuse to give in to my blues
That's not how it's going to be
And I deny the tears in my eyes
I don't want to let you see... no
That you have made a hole in my heart
And now I've got to fool myself...

I'll get over you... I know I will
I'll pretend my ship's not sinking
And I'll tell myself I'm over you
'Cause I'm the king of wishful thinking...
I'll get over you... I know I will
I'll pretend my ship's not sinking
And I'll tell myself I'm over you
'Cause I'm the king of wishful thinking

I will never, never shed a tear for you
I'll get over you

If I don't listen to the talk of the town
Then maybe I can fool myself...

I'll get over you... I know I will
I'll pretend my ship's not sinking
And I'll tell myself I'm over you
'Cause I'm the king of wishful thinking
I'm the king of wishful thinking
I'll get over you... I know I will
You made a hole in my heart
But I won't shed a tear for you
I'll be the king of wishful thinking
I'll get over you...
I'll pretend my heart's still beating
'Cause I've got no more tears for you
I'm the king of wishful thinking...
I'll get over you... I know I will
You made a hole in my heart
And I'll tell myself I'm over you
'Cause I'm the king of wishful thinking

The Sun And The Moon lyrics - Go West

My friend the night never lets me down
But I can't keep dreaming for ever
I need a picture for this empty frame
Tell me the waiting is over
Cause I can see myself in you
We are leaves in the wind
But together we can light up the sky
I'll tell you why baby

I will be the sun.. you'll be the moon
Won't you let me be the one
To shine a light on you?
The day that we're together
Can't come too soon
And baby I will be the sun.. you'll be the moon
You'll be the moon

I've been searching for a desert bloom
And I've found my one in a million
So when the river is a raging flood
I'll be the rock that you stand on
The years of talking too myself
Were like leaves in the wind
From the moment I looked into your eyes
I'll tell you why.. baby

I will be the sun.. you'll be the moon
Won't you let me be the one
To shine a light on you?
The day that we're together
Can't come too soon
And baby I will be the sun you'll be the moon

You'll be the moon every midnight
When I'm scared of the dark
You will be there, baby
To take care of me
And I'll be the sun when you're sleeping
I will watch over you
I will hold you close and keep you safe forever...
Forever girl

Cause I can see myself in you
We are leaves in the wind
But together we can light up the sky
Girl together we can light up the sky
I'll tell you why

I will be the sun you'll be the moon

Count On Me lyrics - Go West

I know what you're thinking
I think I know what's on your mind
Wake up - stop dreaming
Another fool may be hard to find
Why do you want to walk away
And leave a tale of love untold?
It doesn't happen every day... girl
And I don't want to let you go

You'd better not count me out
I don't give up so easily
You'd better just turn around
I don't give up so easily

So keep on talking
Keep dancing on the borderline
You can't dance forever
I now that time is on my side
Why do you look the other way?
In your heart I think you know
It doesn't happen every day... girl
And I don't want to let you go

You'd better not count me out
I don't give up so easily
You'd better just turn around
I don't give up so easily

You'd better not count me out
I don't give up so easily
You'd better just turn around
I don't give up so easily

And it won't be over
'til I say it's over
If you know the answer
Let's not wish the time away...

Girl...I just want to let you know

You'd better not count me out
I don't give up so easily
You'd better just turn around
I don't give up so easily

Crystal Ball lyrics - Go West

Every time I look in your eyes
You take me away
To a place that's so deep inside
There is no escape
Will you walk with me?
Will you show the way?
Will you say that you'll be mine?

Cause I don't need a dime to cast a spell
Somewhere deep inside a wishing well
Don't need a crystal ball
To tell me what to do
All I want is you
All I want is you

And sometimes when I look in your eyes
You take me away
To a place where I'm still a child
Innocent and brave
Will you walk with me?
Will you show the way?
Will you say that you'll be mine?

'cause I don't need a dime to cast a spell
Somewhere deep inside a wishing well
Don't need a crystal ball
To tell me what to do
All I want is you
I don't need a dime to cast a spell
I just want to ride the carousel
Don't need a crystal ball
To tell me what to do
All I want is you

Every time I look in your eyes
You take me away

Forget That Girl lyrics - Go West

I think it's time to talk
About your latest flame
She'll never burn for you
Don't think that you can win
Playing a waiting game
In love there are no rules…

For every precious pearl
A million empty shells
This is reality
You know that I'm your friend
I only wish you well
So take it from me…you've got to

Forget that girl
Don't let her rule your world
You're gonna be walking around
With a stone in your shoe
'til you forget that girl

I know just how you feel
Been on that roundabout
But you were there for me
I was a fool in chains
In deep with no way out
But I set myself free…when you told me

Forget that girl
Don't let her rule your world
You're gonna be walking around
With a stone in your shoe
'til you forget that girl

She'll never give her heart to you
She's just a dream what won't come true
That's all she'll ever be
That's why you've got to let her go - Let her go
Forget that girl…

Bluebeat lyrics - Go West

There was a bluebeat playing
On the night you set me free
There was a blue sky falling
Nothing hurts like a memory
There was a blue wind blowing
All our promises away
Turning the midnight hour
Into the longest day…

My heart will have a bluebeat
'til you come back to me…
Baby you gave my heart a bluebeat
And now I know that I am gonna cry
'til you come back to me
That's how it's gonna be

There was a new star shining
On the night that I met you
Just like a blue moon rising
Too good…too good to be true
My heart will have a bluebeat
'til you come back to me…baby
You gave my heart a bluebeat
And now I know that I am gonna cry

I remember every word
Every little whisper
You walk into my world
And then you dance away
I just closed my eyes and you were gone

You know there was a bluebeat playing
On the night we said goodbye
Let it rain forever
This flame will never die…

I Want You Back lyrics - Go West

My mind is somehow
Disconnected from my feet
I keep on turning
Down the same old dead end street
I'm scared of holding on
For fear of letting go
I can't help myself
The simple lessons
Seem the hardest ones to learn
Why put your hand into a flame
Just to watch it burn?
Now I begin to understand
What love's all about
One things is clear girl

I want you back I want you back
I guess I'll have to face the fact
I'm no good without you girl
That's why that's why I want you back

No consolation
In a photograph of you
I want to hold you in my arms
The way I used to do
And every night
Seems longer than the last
I'm lost without you girl

I want you back I want you back
I guess I'll have to face the fact
I'm no good without you girl
That's why that's why I want you back
I want you back

I want you back.. I want you back
I guess I'll have to face the fact
There's nothing good without you girl
That's why that's why I want you back

I know what's wrong
You're thinking I'm stormy weather
But stormy weather can't last forever
Baby we belong together
Won't you come on back?
I can't live without you girl

Ain't no getting over you girl
I want you back

A Taste Of Things To Come lyrics - Go West

I need a taste
Of what you keep hidden
Got to give it up
For the working man
The sweetest fruit
Is the fruit forbidden
Something in your smile
Says you understand
You can pump me up
You can let me down
You can sidestep
But you know what I need

I need a taste of things to come
I need a taste of things to come
(make me happy)
I need a taste on the tip of my tongue
I need a taste of things to come

I need a taste
Of what I've been missing
A little bit of love
Just to get me through
I'm on my knees
But you keep me wishing
There's a part of me
That needs a part of you
You can pump me up
You can let me down
You can sidestep
But you know what I need..

I need a taste of things to come
I need a taste of things to come
(make me happy)
I need a taste on the tip of my tongue
I need a taste of things to come

You've been holding out
I've been holding on
'cause I've got you in my sights
I don't want to let go
But I can't wait another day
It's got to be tonight girl

You know what I need
I need a taste of things to come

Dancing On The Couch (1987)




















I Want To Hear It From You lyrics - Go West

There's a rumour I have heard
That it's over that's the word
You have found somebody new
Now I need
To hear you say it's not true

I call you up on the phone
No reply no one home
On my own and out of touch
I want to talk to you
I think you owe me that much

I want to hear it from you
(time to showdown)
I want to hear it from you
(here's the lowdown)
I want to hear you say
So long, baby, goodbye

There's a smile on your face
But your eyes give you away
If I'm wasting precious time
Why don't you play your hand
Is this the end of the line?

Years from now
You will remember
Someday you'll feel like I do
Someone will twist the knife in you

In your hunger to be free
You have made a fool of me
I can take the letting go
But it hurts to find
That I'm the last to know

There's a rumour I have heard
That it's over that's the word
You have found somebody new
Now I need
To hear you say it's not true.

Little Caesar lyrics - Go West

Across the sea
To be born again
And stand as tall
As any other man
Now you're number one
On the wanted list
Oblivious
The contract's out on you

Your land of hope and glory
Is shooting in the dark
Don't let this be the end of little caesar

In the chair
At the old house
Trigger-happy philistines
Won't hear a word you say

Surrendering
To the blue crusade
Sing the song they want to hear
The hollywood nineteen

Masque Of Love lyrics - Go West

We are no brief encounter
I used to share with you
From this unhappy distance
I wonder what to do
Denying my suspicions
I see what I want to see
But I can't go on pretending
If you won't talk to me

Masque of love
Shadowboxing
If you don't want me
Say the word
Masque of love
Pulling punches
If our dance is over
Say the word

Your temporary silence
Is forcing us apart
The gold that leads to winter
Is heavy on my heart

We've been out of step too long
Do you feel you don't belong
Tell me what would make the difference
Anything but independence

I dream of confidences
The way we used to be
But all I have is dreaming
If you won't talk to me

From Baltimore To Paris lyrics - Go West

You knew those Belvedere weekends
Were just the beginning
Of a long way home
You were not meant to be
Just good friends

Rumor red
You were ahead of your time

From Baltimore to Paris
You held your head up high
Held back the tears
Across the years

A prisoner of circumstances
Outside looking in
If you had your time over
Would you do it all again?

He was your lonely little boy
Lost in deep water and about to go down
You soon became his favorite toy
A brighter jewel than any in the crown

He abandoned what he promised you
When he could not turn the tide
With a lifetime to prove yourselves
It was enough for you to be at his side
You gave up your pride

Rumor red
One step ahead of your time

True Colours lyrics - Go West

Can't run you can't run away
But don't give yourself up
To the waiting game
You've taken every step
And made all the moves
But you're still where you were
You think you're going under

Come out tonight in your true colours
Stand in the light in your true colours

Shut down
Shut out the warning signs
Whatever it takes to get off the line
You should be looking out
For number one
Another point of view
A new star shining for you

And when you break down
Don't let it show
You hold your future in your hands
Don't let go

Too late.
It's never too late to learn
The lion is sleeping in everyone
You must be strong enough
To go all the way
Remember where you were
Don't let yourself go under

The King Is Dead lyrics - Go West

The king is dead
No doubt about it
We came a long way
Just to say goodbye
And in the end
It was some old swansong
The king is dead
You'd never know it
But we got pictures
Of a different man
He's flesh and blood
No-one knows all the answers
Some days we just do the best we can

You changed my mind in a minute
It breaks my heart to admit it
Don't make me say...

The king is dead
The show is over
We came a long way
Just to turn around
Lesson learned
No-one knows all the answers
Some days we just do the best we can

You changed my mind in a minute
It breaks my heart to admit it
Don't make me say...

You let me in behind the lies
But you're no use to me lifesize
No-one's to blame

Some days we just do the best we can

Chinese Whispers lyrics - Go West

A city street
Of paper houses
A price is paid
For information
It's too late
Your fate is sealed
And there's nothing you can do
You can't hide in the shadows
There'll be someone playing

Chinese whispers
Spy versus spy
Chinese whispers black and white lies

There are two sides
To every story
But who decides
Which one is safer?
You can't see
Behind closed doors
So who do you believe…
When you're trapped in the shadows
There'll be someone playing

Zoom lenses seek sensation
Money talks
Under investigation
Don't dance with a stranger

The power lies
In words and pictures
To twist the truth
And shape the future
Suddenly…your time runs out
And there's nothing you can do
As you smile for the camera
There'll be someone playing

Chinese whispers…

Let's Build A Boat lyrics - Go West

Its a big world
Getting smaller every day
Here comes a big cloud
To wipe the smile off your face
Walking on fire now
Got to keep cool somehow
I'm on a volcano now
It's a sign of the times

I want to go sailing
Let's build a boat
All systems are failing
Let's build a boat

It's a time-bomb
It's a gun against my head
I need a foxhole
Somewhere i can play dead

Going a.w.o.l.
Running off the rails
Cut my lifelines
Let me set my sails...

Looking at seconds now
Stopping that clock somehow
I'm on a volcano now
I've seen a sign of the times

Crossfire lyrics - Go West

Where the east shuts out the western world
There is a frozen river
No way out to see
A great divide was opened over night
One mile became a million
All contact was lost
In crossfire

At the mercy of the chosen few
There is a broken city
Still living each day
In crossfire
Under the gun
In crossfire
Nowhere to run

Pray for the desperate man
With so far to fall
He knows his liberty
Is over the wall

On the east side of the western world
One mile is still a million
Is all contact lost
In crossfire

Dangerous lyrics - Go West

Double take
At the thin men on the wall
First mistake
To move a little closer
Sweat on skin
Every word you hear
Pulls you further in
A little knowledge can be…

Dangerous
You've got to fight the fascination
Dangerous
Who wants to be the inside man?

Go underground
But like a paperback
You just can't put down
You're slave to this addiction

No-one can help you now
The rules are broken
There's nobody keeping score

You have the law
But you're the underdog
In this one-man-war
A little knowledge can be

Go West (1985)




















We Close Our Eyes lyrics - Go West

Inside everyone hides one desire
Outside no one would know
Danger close to edge of the knife
Safer not to let go
And while we miss chances
You can almost hear time slipping away

We close our eyes, we never lose a game
Imagination never lets us take the blame
We close our eyes to see the final frame
We close our eyes to time slipping away

No show, Wednesday girl waits with the wine
She knows just what to say
While no one listens
You can almost hear time slipping away

We close our eyes, we never lose a game
Imagination never lets us take the blame
We close our eyes to see the final frame
We close our eyes and

We can talk to strangers
We are burning with the spark
And we can walk on water
We are tigers in the dark
We are burning

We close our eyes

Heroes never give into the night
He knows how far he can run
And as he surrenders
You can almost hear time slipping away

We close our eyes, we never lose a game
Imagination never lets us take the blame
We close our eyes to see the final frame
We close our eyes

We close our eyes, we never lose a game
Imagination never lets us take the blame
We close our eyes to see the final frame
We close our eyes

We close our eyes, we walk on water
Lets us take the blame
We are burning
Talk to strangers

Don't Look Down lyrics - Go West

How much longer 'til the curtain rises?
First night stage fright always hypnotizes
Leading ladies never think about it
Live without it

Try to hide your fear of falling
Keep your eyes on me, I'm calling

Don't look down girl
You know you're holding aces
Don't look down girl
Don't give the game away

One more heartbeat and you walk the wire
Why wait? Ooh, it's too late to put out the fire
Almost strangers, can you stop deceiving
Start believing

Try to hide your fear of falling
Keep your eyes on me, I'm calling

Don't look down girl
You know you're holding aces
Don't look down girl
Don't give the game away, 'cause baby

Oh, even when you feel you can't go on
Laughing at the rain you fool no one
If you don't wanna lose what you have found
Then don't look down

Changing partners is just substitution
It's no solution

Try to hide your fear of falling
Keep your eyes on me, I'm calling

Don't look down girl
You know you're holding aces
Don't look down girl
Don't give the game away

Don't look down girl
You know you're holding aces
Don't look down girl
Don't give the game away

Don't look down
Don't look down
Don't look down

Call Me lyrics - Go West

Face to face
My reflection in your eyes
I was scared to say too much
Perfect strangers in perfect worlds apart
Almost close enough to touch
Staring at my shoes
Feeling so confused
Shot down without a gun
Victim of a hit and run
Won't you...

Call me - call me
No time to hesitate - we must communicate
Call me - call me
Won't you call this number now

Mesmerised
I go back to where we met
A reconstruction of the crime
I can't track you down
Nowhere to be found
Now my one shot at success
Is the power of the press
Won't you...

Call me - call me
No time to hesitate - we must communicate
Call me - call me
Won't you call this number now

Worlds apart - we are worlds apart

Watch this space
There's a message here for you
No need to read between the lines
I am inside out
There can be no doubt
I want you and no-one else
Please identify yourself

Call me - call me
No time to hesitate - we must communicate
Call me - call me
Won't you call this number now

Eye To Eye lyrics - Go West

Maybe it's the wrong time
But when is the right time to say I lied?
I've been keeping secrets
Could this be the last time we say goodbye?

(Here we are)
Eye to eye no conversation
You know what I'm going to say
Eye to eye it's a sad situation
Girl have I thrown it away?

I was missing you, missing you
I needed someone to comfort me
When you closed the door baby
How could I know that I still had the key?

Your love never thought that I would lose it
My love won't you tell me what it takes to prove it?
All I want is your love

It's all up to you girl
I just couldn't keep it to myself
She was nothing to me
And you know in your heart
I don't want anyone else.

Haunted lyrics - Go West

Makes him a winner
Standing in the dark just out of sight
Checks his collar
Wondering who will he be tonight?

Haunted
Some people can be so sure of their hearts
Haunted
Same people can be so wrong for the part

Men in movies
Cast no shadows in the light
Frame by frame
Heroines caught in black and white

Haunted
Some people can be so sure of their hearts
Haunted
Same people are so wrong

Fact or fiction
Dangerous to lose sight of the line
These moving pictures
Still moving but running out of time

Haunted
Some people can be so sure of their hearts
Haunted
Same people are so wrong

Haunted
Some people can be so sure of their hearts
Haunted
Same people are so wrong

S.O.S. lyrics - Go West

Watching your window
Across the street we share
Eyes on your shadow
You are unaware, unaware

Picture a stranger
Footsteps in gabardine
You sense the danger
Something unforeseen
Burning fires on your shore
Never opened any door

I?m wasting my time
You don?t hear my S.O.S.
The perfect crime
To answer your S.O.S.

Leave you in silence
Change my identity
Second appearance
I will set you free
Burning fires on your shore
Never opened any door

Watching your window
Across the street we share
Eyes on your shadow
You are unaware
Burning fires on your shore
Never opened any door

Goodbye Girl lyrics - Go West

Footsteps echo on familiar streets
Crossing bridges, never burned
I am tired of playing hide and seek
Is this all that I have learned?

Looking for a diamond in the dark
I was sure you were the one
You held me spell bound
While you made your mark
Now, the damage has been done

Goodbye girl, it's a game
We play every time we say
Goodbye girl, you hypnotize
I can't say goodbye

I'm afraid when I turn out the light
Words you say while you're asleep
Where you were and what you did last night?
Those are secrets you can keep, yeah

Goodbye girl, it's a game
We play every time we say
Goodbye girl, you hypnotize
I can't say goodbye

Tied to you, blood on the wire
Don't you know you've pushed me much too far?
Just who do you think you are?
I can't escape, must almost need you around
Every time I say goodbye, you hypnotize

Footsteps echo on familiar streets
Crossing bridges, never burned
I am tired of playing hide and seek, yeah
Is this all that I have learned?

Goodbye girl, it's a game
We play every time we say
Goodbye girl, you hypnotize my eyes

Goodbye girl, it's a game
We play every time we say
Goodbye girl, you hypnotize
I can't say goodbye

Goodbye girl, it's a game
We play every time we say
Goodbye girl, you hypnotize my eyes

Goodbye girl, it's a game
We play every time we say
Goodbye girl, you hypnotize
I can't say goodbye

Innocence lyrics - Go West

Room with a view
For a man who is starting over
A new beginning in a new town
Where no one knows his name
Looking for somewhere
To hide from the sound of thunder
Out of the storm the air will feed the flame

One man alone in search of innocence
Out on his own in search of innocence

Telling himself once again
That it's now or never
One kiss, one promise broken
Memories burn and fade away
Closing the door
He knows yesterday's gone forever
So much unsaid but nothing left to say

One man alone in search of innocence
Out on his own in search of innocence
One man alone in search of innocence
Out on his own in search of innocence

And tomorrow he will be a different man
His mind is made up
He's got to leave while he still can
Must we learn from our mistakes?
Sometimes answers come too late
Will he be lost forever in search of innocence?

Into the twilight
His heart driven by the hunger
Station to destination anywhere
Where no one knows his name
Room with a view for a man
Who is starting over
Out of the storm the air will feed the flame

One man alone in search of innocence
Out on his own in search of innocence
One man alone in search of innocence
Out on his own in search of innocence

One man alone in search of innocence
Out on his own in search of innocence
Anywhere they don't know my name
And the air can feed the flame

I'm a man alone in search of innocence...

Missing Persons lyrics - Go West

Somewhere they're waiting for me
We are running towards the light
So many hearts incomplete
We are innocents in the night

Left on the rocks by the storm
We are powerless to resist
Wide eyed so weary at dawn
But who knows what we might have missed

Missing persons never look behind
Missing persons you've got to walk between the lines

No clues and so far to go
Will we find what we're looking for?
I'm ready blow winds blow
And carry me to the shore to the shore

Somewhere they're waiting for me
We are running towards the light
So many hearts incomplete
We are innocents in the night.

Don't Be Afraid Of Your Dreams lyrics - Go West

So many sleepless nights
You lay awake wondering
Is something out there waiting for you
There's so many mountains to climb
And dreams that keep coming
If you're gonna make it you know ya gotta reach down inside
And hear your heart saying, girl

Don't be afraid of your dreams
They're never as real as they seem
It's mind over matter
Whatever it takes
To get what you're after
You're never gonna break, so baby
Don't be afraid of your dreams

Stand up and be ready to fight
All the things that you're afraid of
Don't let those fears stand in your way
We all have that special night
When we find what we're made of
Just close your eyes and think of me then
And you'll hear me saying, girl

Don't be afraid of your dreams
They're never as real as they seem
It's mind over matter
Whatever it takes
To get what you're after, girl
You're never gonna break, so baby
Don't be afraid of your dreams

Don't be afraid

It's mind over matter
Whatever it takes
To get what you're after, girl
You're never gonna break, so baby
Don't be afraid of your dreams

Don't be afraid of your dreams
They're never as real
They're never as real as they seem
So don't be, don't be afraid of your dreams, baby
We'll find these dreams together
Whatever it takes (don't be afraid of your dreams)
To get what you're after, girl
You're never, never gonna break (don't be afraid of your dreams)
Stand by me girl
Don't be afraid (don't be afraid of your dreams)

I'll Be Good lyrics - Go West

I'll be good...good...good...good...
I'll be good...good...good...good...

Flash, we meet
Passin' in the streets
Words unspoken
Silence unbroken, hey

Just by chance
We fell into romance
The cry of success
Left no room to guess

Oh, no (Oh, no)
Love has knocked us down and scored
We've been twice around the block before
Know the changes you've been through
My promise is to you

I'll be good
Ooh, ooh (Ooh, ooh)
Better than before
You know I'll love you more

I'll be good
Ooh, ooh (Ooh, ooh)
Better than before
You know I'll love you more

I fell in love so quick
I knew that this was it
So much emotion
Made so much devotion

And when we talk
We're never miles apart
Your telephone line
Is tied right to my heart

(Love me, baby)
Your love has knocked me down and scored
(Knock me out, baby)
You may hide and close your door
(Baby, baby)
Open up, I swear it's true
(What you gonna do)

I'll be good {I just wanna be good}
To you (How good)
Better than before (Mmm...)
You know I'll love you more

I'll be good
Will you be good, boy {So good}, so good {Hey}
Better than before
You know I'll love you more

When we talk
We're never miles apart
Telephone line (Telephone line)
Tied straight to my heart

I fell in love so quick
I thought my mind was playin' tricks
One twist of fate
Made it somethin' so great

Let me show you how to live
Stop goin' from town to town
Don't be afraid to give
Time to settle down

When I'm good I'm bad
And when I'm bad I'm better
When I'm at my best
There's no room to guess

I'll be good
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Better than before
You know I'll love you more

I'll be good
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Mmm...ooh

I'll be good
Better than before
Know I'll love you more
Better than before
You know I'll love you more

I'll be good...good...good...good...
I'll be good...good...good...good...
I'll be good...good...good...good...
I'll be good...good...good...good...
I'll be good...good...good...good...
I'll be good...good...good...good...
I'll be good...good...good...good...
I'll be good...good...good...good...
I'll be good...good...good...good...

Never Let Them See You Sweat lyrics - Go West

Never let them see you sweat
Never let them see you sweat
Never let them see you sweat
Yeah
Yeah hey

They're out to get you
They're only down with you
For what they think that you've got
It's very simple
It's very fundamental
You don't know who to trust and who not...

Gamble everything you make
Hoping that you might get paid
Everybody says you're brave
But the truth baby,
Is every little chance you take
Turns into a big mistake
Keep it inside
Though you want to cry
Listen to me for your sake...

They can drive you crazy
'Till you doubt yourself
It's the game plan baby
Never let them see you sweat
Say it don't faze me
Not like someone else
Ain't no if or maybe
Never let them see you sweat

The pressure is rising up to test you
So can you get over the hump?
Then take it further and change the minds of brothers
Who says that white men can't jump...

Gamble everything you make
Hoping that you might get paid
Everybody says you're brave
But the truth baby,
Is every little chance you take
Turns into a big mistake
Keep it inside
Though you want to cry
Listen to me for your sake...

They can drive you crazy
'Till you doubt yourself
It's the game plan baby
Never let them see you sweat
Say it don't faze me
Not like someone else
Ain't no if or maybe
Never let them see you sweat

No, no...
Never let them see you sweat
No, no...
Never let them see you sweat

They can see you lose a game
They can see you lose a bet
They can see you lose your job
Don't let them see you sweat
You can even lose it all
But you haven't done that yet
Don't let nobody, let nobody
Don't let nobody see you sweat

Gamble everything you make
Hoping that you might get paid
Everybody says you're brave
But the truth baby,
Is every little chance you take
Turns into a big mistake
Keep it inside
Though you want to cry
Listen to me for your sake...

They can drive you crazy
'Till you doubt yourself
It's the game plan baby
Never let them see you sweat
Say it don't faze me
Not like someone else
Ain't no if or maybe
Never let them see you sweat

They can drive you crazy
'Till you doubt yourself
It's the game plan baby
Never let them see you sweat
Say it don't faze me
Not like someone else
Ain't no if or maybe
Never let them see you sweat

No, no...
Never let them see you sweat
No, no...
Never let them see you sweat

Tears Too Late lyrics - Go West

If you don't think it's over
Take a look around
Now you know that farewell
Is a lonely sound

I'm the one you came home to
When you came home at all
And I'm the one who trusted you
But now I see you bring on your tears too late

And I don't wanna wait
'Til it falls apart again
So this will be the last time
That you cry your tears too late
As if your heart would break
But now I don't believe in you
I'm leaving you this time
You've really cried your tears too late

You never say you need me
Until I walk away
Now you're trying to tell me
That you're here to stay

I'm the one you cheated on
I fell for all your lies
And I'm the one you hit and run
You never change you bring on your tears too late

And I don't wanna wait
'Til it falls apart again
So this will be the last time
That you cry your tears too late
As if your heart would break
But now I don't believe in you
I'm leaving you this time
You've really cried your tears too late

And I've heard it all before
I can't take it anymore
Now I've got to learn to live without you

You never change you bring on your tears too late

And I don't wanna wait
'Til it falls apart again
So this will be the last time
That you cry your tears too late
As if your heart would break
But now I don't believe in you
I'm leaving you this time
You've really cried your tears too late

And I don't wanna wait
'Til it falls apart again
So this will be the last time
That you cry your tears too late
As if your heart would break
But now I don't believe in you
I'm leaving you this time

Tracks Of My Tears lyrics - Go West

People say I'm the life of the party
'cause I tell a joke or two
Although I might be laughing loud and hearty
Deep inside I'm blue
So take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears..
I need you, need you
Since you left me if you see me with another girl
Seeming like I'm having fun
Although she may be cute
She's just a substitute
Because you're the permanent one..
So take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears..
I need you, need you
Outside I'm masquerading
Inside my hope is fading
Just a clown oh yeah
Since you put me down
My smile is my make up
I wear since my break up with you..
So take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears

One Way Street lyrics - Go West

[from "Rocky IV" soundtrack]

Singly Roads would never change your mind
I sure you don't know
but to me you seem so unkind
I... don't I thought sympathy
I just want a chance to get too closer to me

I fell I'm on a
ONE WAY STREET
moving in the wrong direction
It's a...
ONE WAY STREET
Someone on my line never gotta a bad connection

ONE WAY STREET
moving in the wrong direction
It's a...
ONE WAY STREET
Someone on my line never gotta a bad connection

surrender by voices I don't want to hear
I tell myself that must be insincere
I... never told you lies
He was the one who put the tears in you eyes

I fell I'm on a...
ONE WAY STREET
moving in the wrong direction
It's a...love
ONE WAY STREET
Someone on my line never gotta a bad connection

ONE WAY STREET
moving in the wrong direction
It's a...
ONE WAY STREET
Someone on my line never gotta a bad connection

Spend you whole life waiting for a sing
you make your move to late
and love got left behind
truth is all that you don't want to see
I may, falling take advantage of me

take it from me!!!

I don't care who is right or who is wrong
one day aloneness is day too long
you... only may wanna stay
sometimes around a heart is harder to brake

harder to brake!!

ONE WAY STREET
moving in the wrong direction
It's a... love
ONE WAY STREET
Someone on my line never gotta a bad connection

ONE WAY STREET
moving in the wrong direction
It's a...
ONE WAY STREET
Someone on my line never gotta a bad connection

ONE WAY STREET
moving in the wrong direction
It's a... love
ONE WAY STREET
Someone on my line never gotta a bad connection
