1. Cry For Rome
Written by Terry Gorle (intro lyrics by Steve Benito)

Show me a tear, and Iâll know youâre a dreamer
Caesarâs, one and all we cry for Rome
Tears like empires falling to the ground
Yet weâre shackled to those dreams
Weâre tied and weâre bound
So show me a tear and Iâll know youâre a dreamer
Caesarâs, one and all we cry for Rome
â¦Caesarâs, one and all we cry for Romeâ¦
Show me a tear, and Iâll tell you a tale of glory
Caesarâs, one and all we cry for Rome
Show me your fear and Iâll sell you a timeless story
Caesarâs, one and all we cry for Rome
Neroâs song of mourning weeps
As pillars fall like rain
Only shattered hopes and dust remain
Show me a tear and Iâll know youâre a dreamer
Caesarâs, one and all we cry for Rome
Show me your fear and Iâll know that youâre a seer
Caesarâs, one and all we cry for Rome
Tears like empires falling down
See them on the ground
Yet, weâre shackled to them
We are bound
Show, come on and show
Show⦠showâ¦.
Are there any dreamers?
Are there any dreamers?
Show me a tear and Iâll know youâre a seer
Neroâs song of mourning weeps
As pillars fall like rain
The echoes of an empire's final reignâ¦
2. Two Hearts
Written by Ron Chick and Steve Benito
Copyright 1986 Richard Cheese Music -BMI
All the pieces seemed to fit today
The sky blue matched the city grey
The roads all led to somewhere
The words I heard were true
Everything seemed to fit but me and you
All the pieces seemed to fit today
Laughter came from childrenâs play
Something came from nothing
One and one made two
Everything seemed to fit but me and you
We are two lost pieces to the puzzle
We are two forgotten words that used to rhyme
We will never fit together
We are two hearts beating out of timeâ¦
3. The Sound Of Silence
Written by Paul Simon

HEIR APPARENT arrangement by Terry Gorle 1987
Hello darkness my old friend
Iâve come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left itâs seeds while I was sleeping
And a vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains â
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
âNeath the halo of a streetlamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
-That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
-And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
âFoolsâ, said I, âYou do not knowâ
âSilence, like a cancer, growsâ
âHear my words, that I might teach youâ
âTake my arms, that I might reach youâ
But my words, like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, âThe words of the prophets are
Written on the subway walls â and tenement hallsâ
And whispered in the sounds of silence
4. The Haunting

Memory- go away
I grow weary from my running
Hiding for so long
Iâve lost my way
Morning lightâs reminders
Painting colors in my prison
Daylight brightens every shade of grey
The pain never ending, and now its so cliché
Yesterdays are creaking doors
And noises in the nighttime
Feelings, only chains across the floor
Voices on the wind, softly moan
I hear them whisper
Mirrors mock the man I was before
My mind slowly fading
Like paper in the rain
The haunting, it still remains
The haunting, it still remains
Turning and burning in my bed
A never-ending ghost
That lives inside my head
Memory- go away
I grow weary from my running
Hiding for so long
Iâve lost my way
Yesterdays are creaking doors
And noises in the nighttime
Feelings, only chains across the floor
My mind keeps decaying
Like paper in the rain
The haunting, it still remains
The haunting, it still remains
Turning and burning in my bed
A never-ending ghost
That lives inside my head
Memories remain of the haunting
Canât stop the pain of the hauntingâ¦
5. Young Forever
Written by Terry Gorle and Steve Benito

Watching the setting sun
You feel the days gone by
Autumn is ending- with winter impending
Was summer just a lie?
But just like the seasons
You know you spring will come
Youâre young forever
Just like the setting sun
Youâll rise again
Youâre young forever
Taking on time in a race
That you canât win
Down but not out itâs clear youâre wise
Beyond your years
Time is a ship that keeps on sailing
Despite our hailing tears
But just like the ship
The wind will fill your sails
Youâre young forever
Just like the setting sun
Youâll rise again
