Titres

1 As Good as New ♪ 3:24

I'll never know why I had to go
Why I had to put up such a lousy rotten show
Boy, I was tough, packing all my stuff
Saying I don't need you anymore, I've had enough
And now, look at me standing here again 'cause I found out that
Ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma my life is here
Gotta have you near

As good as new, my love for you
And keeping it that way is my intention
As good as new and growing too
Yes, I think it's taking on a new dimension
It's as good as new, my love for you
Just like it used to be and even better
As good as new, thank God it's true
Darling, we were always meant to stay together

Feel like a creep, never felt so cheap
Never had a notion that my love could be so deep
How could I make such a dumb mistake
Now I know I'm not entitled to another break
But please, baby, I beg you to forgive 'cause I found out that
Ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma my life is here
Gotta get you near

I thought that our love was at an end but here I am again

As good as new, my love for you
And keeping it that way is my intention
As good as new and growing too
Yes, I think it's taking on a new dimension
It's as good as new, my love for you
Just like it used to be and even better
As good as new, thank God it's true
Darling, we were always meant to stay together

Yes the love I have for you feels as good as new
Darling, we were always meant to stay together

3 I Have a Dream ♪ 4:46

I have a dream, a song to sing
To help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder of a fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream

I have a dream, a fantasy
To help me through reality
And my destination makes it worth the while
Pushing through the darkness still another mile
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream

I have a dream, a song to sing
To help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder of a fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream

4 Angeleyes ♪ 4:23

Last night I was taking
a walk along the river
and I saw him
together with a young girl
and the look that he gave her
made me shiver
'cause he always used to
look at me that way
and I thought
maybe I should walk
right up to her and say
it's a game he likes to play

Look into his angeleyes
one look and you're hypnotized
he'll take your heart
and you must pay the price
look into his angeleyes
you'll think you're in paradise
and one day you'll find out
he wears a disguise
don't look too deep
into those angeleyes
oh no no no no

Sometimes when I'm lonely
I sit and think about him
and it hurts to remember
all the good times
when I thought I
could never live without him
and I wonder
does it have to be the same
every time
when I see him
will it bring back all the pain
how can I forget that name

Look into his angeleyes
one look and you're hypnotized
he'll take your heart
and you must pay the price
look into his angeleyes
you'll think you're in paradise
and one day you'll find out
he wears a disguise
don't look too deep
into those angeleyes

Crazy 'bout his angeleyes
angeleyes
he took my heart
and now I pay the price
look into his angeleyes
you'll think you're in paradise
and one day you'll find out
he wears a disguise
don't look too deep
into those angeleyes
oh no no no no

(Keep thinking
keep thinking 'bout his angeleyes
keep thinking
keep thinking I had to pay the price)

5 The King Has Lost His Crown ♪ 3:33

Ahhhaaaa...

I believe your new girl turned you down
And they say she's pushing you around
How does it feel, I guess it hurts your pride
Tell me my friend how many nights you cried

Disaster and disgrace
The king has lost his crown
Suddenly
He's clumsy like a clown
Aaaaah
The world is upside down
The king has lost his crown

Was it hard to step down from your throne
And to know tonight you're all alone
Oh what a shame, you really want that girl
She doesn't care, still you just dream of her

Disaster and disgrace
The king has lost his crown
Suddenly
He's clumsy like a clown
Ha-aaaahh
The world is upside down
The king has lost his crown

Disaster and disgrace
The word is all around
Suddenly
He's clumsy like a clown
Aaaaaaa-ah
The world is upside down
The king has lost his crown

6 Does Your Mother Know ♪ 3:15

You're so hot, teasing me
So you're blue but I can't take a chance on a chick like you
That's something I couldn't do
There's that look in your eyes
I can read in your face that your feelings are driving you wild
Ah, but girl you're only a child

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?

Take it easy (take it easy)
Better slow down girl
That's no way to go
Does your mother know?
Take it easy (take it easy)
Try to cool it girl
Take it nice and slow
Does your mother know?

I can see what you want
But you seem pretty young to be searching for that kind of fun
So maybe I'm not the one
Now you're so cute, I like your style
And I know what you mean when you give me a flash of that smile (smile)
But girl you're only a child

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?

Take it easy (take it easy)
Better slow down girl
That's no way to go

7 If It Wasn’t for the Nights 5:11

8 Chiquitita ♪ 5:27

Chiquitita, dime por qué tu dolor hoy te encadena
En tus ojos hay una sombra de gran pena
No quisiera verte así aunque quieras disimularlo
Si es que tan triste estás ¿para qué quieres callarlo?

Chiquitita, dímelo tú en mi hombro aquí llorando
Cuenta conmigo ya para así seguir andando
Tan segura te conocí y ahora tu ala quebrada
Déjamela arreglar, yo la quiero ver curada

Chiquitita, sabes muy bien que las penas vienen y van y desaparecen
Otra vez vas a bailar y serás feliz como flores que florecen
Chiquitita, no hay que llorar
Las estrellas brillan por tí allá en lo alto
Quiero verte sonreír para compartir tu alegría, Chiquitita
Otra vez quiero compartir tu alegría, Chiquitita

Chiquitita, dímelo tú en mi hombro aquí llorando
Cuenta conmigo ya para así seguir andando
No quisiera verte así aunque quieras disimularlo
Si es que tan triste estás ¿para qué quieres callarlo?

Chiquitita, sabes muy bien que las penas vienen y van y desaparecen
Otra vez vas a bailar y serás feliz como flores que florecen
Chiquitita, no hay que llorar
Las estrellas brillan por tí allá en lo alto
Quiero verte sonreír para compartir tu alegría, Chiquitita
Otra vez quiero compartir tu alegría, Chiquitita..

9 Lovers (Live a Little Longer) 3:31

10 Kisses of Fire ♪ 3:20

Lay your head on my chest so you hear every beat of my heart
Now there's nothing at all that can keep us apart
Touch my lips, close your eyes and see with your fingertips
Things that you do, and you know I'm crazy 'bout you

Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I'm at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
I've had my share of love affairs but they were nothing compared to this
Oh, I'm riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
Kisses of fire
Kisses of fire

When you sleep by my side I feel safe and I know I belong
Still it's making me scared that my love is so strong
Losing you is a nightmare fate and to me it's new
Never before did you see me begging for more

Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I'm at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
I've had my share of love affairs but they were nothing compared to this
Oh, I'm riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
Kisses of fire
Kisses of fire

Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I'm at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
(I'm at the point of no returning)
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
I'm riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
(Caught in a land-slide of emotions)
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I'm at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions

11 Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight) ♪ 4:52

Half past twelve
And I'm watching the late show in my flat all alone
How I hate to spend the evening on my own
Autumn winds
Blowing outside the window as I look around the room
And it makes me so depressed to see the groom
There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

[Refrain] :
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Movie stars
Find the end of the rainbow, with that fortune to win
It's so different from the world I'm living in
Tired of T.V.
I open the window and I gaze into the night
But there's nothing there to see, no one in sight
There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

[Refrain]

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight...
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight...
There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

[Refrain] x2

11 Summer Night City ♪ 3:35

Summer night city
summer night city

Waiting for the sunrise
soul dancin' in the dark
summer night city
walkin' in the moonlight
love-makin' in a park
summer night city

In the sun I feel like sleepin'
I can't take it for too long
my impatience slowly creepin'
up my spine and growin' strong

I know what's waiting there for me
tonight I'm loose and fancy free
ah -

When the night comes with the action
I just know it's time to go
can't resist the strange attraction
from that giant dynamo
lots to take and lots to give
time to breathe and time to live

Waiting for the sunrise
soul dancin' in the dark
summer night city
walkin' in the moonlight
love-makin' in a park
summer night city

It's elusive call it glitter
somehow something turns me on
some folks only see the litter
we don't miss 'em when they're gone

I love the feeling in the air
my kind of people everywhere
ah -

When the night comes with the action
I just know it's time to go
can't resist the strange attraction
from that giant dynamo
and tomorrow when it's dawning
and the first birds start to sing
in the pale light of the morning
nothing's worth remembering
it's a dream, it's out of reach
scattered driftwood on a beach

Waiting for the sunrise
soul dancin' in the dark
summer night city
walkin' in the moonlight
love-makin' in a park
summer night city

12 Lovelight ♪ 3:48

I've always hated my room, it's so gloomy and dreary
Always the dark, for the windows just face the back yard
So I can't understand how it's happened, how everything's changing
This old dirty ceiling seems a little whiter
When you walked into the room it all got so much brighter

You must have a lovelight
Everything around you is lovelight
And I can feel your love everywhere
Maybe even when you're not there
The lovelight
Everything around you is lovelight
You're shining like a star in the night
I won't let you out of my sight
I don't want to lose you, I don't want to lose your lovelight

How I remember the first time we went to the movies
We had decided to meet on the corner downtown
And I waited there when you came up from behind and you kissed me
And the traffic seemed to get a little lighter
When you came into my life it all got so much brighter

You must have a lovelight
Everything around you is lovelight
And I can feel your love everywhere
Maybe even when you're not there
The lovelight
Everything around you is lovelight
You're shining like a star in the night
I won't let you out of my sight
I don't want to lose you, I don't want to lose your lovelight

And I feel so good
And I feel so right
And I know that you must have a lovelight
You've got lovelight
And I can feel your love everywhere
Maybe even when you're not there
You've got lovelight
Everything around you is lovelight
You're shining like a star in the night
I won't let you out of my sight
I don't want to lose you, I don't want to lose your lovelight
Everything about you is right
Let it glow and let it be bright
I don't want to lose your lovelight
Shining like a star in the night
