Runaway Ê On the street where you live girls talk about their social lives They're made of lipstick, plastic and paint A touch of sable in their eyes All your life all you asked When is your Daddy gonna talk to you But we're living in another world Tryin' to get your message through No one heard a single word you said They should have seen it in your eyes What was going around your head Chorus Ooh, she's a little runaway Daddy's girl learned fast All those things he couldn't say Ooh, she's a little runaway A different line everynight Guarabteed to blow your mind See you out on the streets Call me for a wild time So you sit home alone 'Cause there's nothing left that you can do There's only pictures hung in the shadows Left there to look at you You konw she likes the lights At night on the neon Broadway signs And she don't really mind Its only love she hoped to find Chorus No one heard a single word you said They should have seen it in your eyes What was going on your head Chorus

It's My Life Ê This ain't a song for the broken-hearted No silent prayer for the faith-departed I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd You're gonna hear my voice When I shout it out loud Chorus It's my life It's now or never I ain't gonna live forever I just want to live while I'm alive (It's my life) My heart is like an open highway Like Frankie said I did it my way I just wanna live while I'm alive It's my life This is for the ones who stood their ground For Tommy and Gina who never backed down Tomorrow's getting harder make no mistake Luck ain't even lucky Got to make your own breaks Chorus It's my life It's now or never I ain't gonna live forever I just want to live while I'm alive (It's my life) My heart is like an open highway Like Frankie said I did it my way I just wanna live while I'm alive ÔCause it's my life Better stand tall when they're calling you out Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down Chorus repeat
Say It Isn't So I just can't believe It was all a lie No man in the moon Just a big light in the sky I hear Disneyland Might lose Mickey Mouse In some giant hostile corporate shake-up Tell me it's a nightmare Please wake me up (Say it isn't so) I found a book of matches From someplace we've never been How come you hang the phone up The minute I walk in Last night I had this dream That I was losing you I woke up in a cold sweat shaking Rescue me my heart is breaking Chorus 1 Say it isn't so (Tell me it's not true) Say it isn't so (I believe in you) Tell me it's a lie (I don't need no proof) Say everything's alright (Couldn't be, not you) Say it isn't so Superman don't fly They did it all with strings Elvis Presley died They deep fried the King Like some tacky cheesy bathing beauty Dancing on the beach in a bad B-movie Chorus 1 Chorus 2 Say it isn't so (Don't give up on me) Say it isn't so (Don't give up on you) Get me through the night (We'll make it through) Make everything alright (Couldn't be, not you) Say it isn't so Chorus 1 Chorus 2
Thank You For Loving Me It's hard for me to say the things I want to say sometimes There's no one here but you and me And that broken old street light Lock the doors We'll leave the world outside All I've got to give to you Are these five words when I Chorus Thank you for loving me For being my eyes When I couldn't see For parting my lips When I couldn't breathe Thank you for loving me Thank you for loving me I never knew I had a dream Until that dream was you When I look into your eyes The sky's a different blue Cross my heart I wear no disguise If I tried, you'd make believe That you believed my lies Chorus You pick me up when I fall down You ring the bell before they count me out If I was drowning you would part the sea And risk your own life to rescue me Lock the doors We'll leave the world outside All I've got to give to you Are these five words when I Chorus Thank you for loving me For being my eyes When I couldn't see For parting my lips When I couldn't breathe Thank you for loving me When I couldn't fly Oh, you gave me wings You parted my lips When I couldn't breathe Thank you for loving me Thank you for loving me Thank you for loving me Oh, for loving me...
Just Older Hey, man, it's been a while Do you remember me? When I hit these streets I was 17 A little wild, a little green I've been up and down and in between After all these years And miles of memories I'm still chasing dreams But I ain't looking over my shoulder Chorus I like the bed I'm sleeping in It's just like me, It's broken in It's not old - just older Like a favorite pair of torn blue jeans The skin I'm in it's alright with me It's not old - just older It's good to see your face You ain't no worse for wear Breathing that California air When we took on the world When we were young and brave We got secrets that we'll take to the grave And we're standing here shoulder to shoulder Chorus I'm not old enough to sing the blues But I wore the holes in the soles of these shoes You can roll the dice Ôtil they call your bluff But you can't win until you're not afraid to lose Well, I look in the mirror I don't hate what I see There's a few more lines staring back at me Now the night has grown a little bit colder Hey Man, I gotta run Now you take care If you see Coach T. tell him I've cut my hair But I've kept my faith I still believe I'm just... Chorus 2x
Captain Crash And The Beauty Queen From Mars Dressed up for a big date Like Halloween day but it was Fourth of July now A car crash with a suitcase and a painted face She was one of a kind She wears a plastic crown like Cinderella And roller skates in bed He rides the greyhound from his hometown When he comes around 'cause they Don't let him drive now Mixed up as a milkshake But make no mistake Crash is looking like a star Chorus You and me We're invincible - together We can be oh so tragical - whatever Dressed up just like Ziggy but he couldn't play guitar Captain Crash and the beauty queen from mars Share a toothpick, trading lipstick Watching traffic for days at the diner Holding hands, making big plans Playing Superman, he was wearing eyeliner Another local legend and his longtime lucky charm Chorus They're drunk on love as you can get Getting high on lust and cigarettes Living life with no regrets At least they're gonna try to fly... Chorus We're Sid and Nancy Fred and Ginger Clyde and Bonnie Liz and Richard Kurt and Courtney Bacall and Bogie Joltin' Joe and Ms. Monroe Here's captain crash and the beauty queen from mars captain crash and the beauty queen from mars
One Wild Night Ê It's a hot night, the natives are restless We're sweating by the light of the moon There's a voodoo mojo brewing at the go-go That could knock a witch off her broom We slither on in and shed our skin Make our way into the bump and the grind I'm passing by, she gives me the eye So I stop to - give her a light Chorus One wild night (blinded by the moonlight) One wild night (24 hours of midnight) One wild night (I stepped into the twilight zone And she left my heart with vertigo) One wild, one wild, one wild, one wild night Havin' as much fun as you can in your clothes Margarita had me feelin' alright It just might be that I found religion I've been on my knees for half of the night I'm rolling the bones with Jimmy 'no dice' Gonna take him for a couple weeks' pay Man, if you lose this roll I take your girlfriend home So I stopped But you're not gonna believe who comes walking out Chorus One wild night (blinded by the moonlight) One wild night (24 hours of midnight) One wild night (I stepped into the twilight zone And she left my heart with vertigo) One wild night (hey, c'est la vie) One wild night (welcome to the party) One wild night (life is for the living so You gotta live it up, come on let's go) One wild, one wild, one wild, one wild night Chorus repeat One wild, one One wild night One wild night One wild night (blinded by the moonlight) One wild night (24 hours of midnight) One wild night stepped into the twilight zone for One wild, one wild, one wild, one wild night.
