1. Cloak And Dagger
In the dark of the night and there's no more light
I'm running away and there's no place to hide
There's a man in the shadows with that look in his eyes
And I'm of creeping around like a thief in the night
Bridge#1
My body shakes with anticipation
Feels so hot, a burning sensation
My nerves in shock, a bad situation
Midnight hour assignation
Chorus
Tonight, cloak and dagger
Another late night rendezvous
I gotta get myself together
Gotta make it home to you
It's ten after twelve and there's still no sign
I'm cold and I'm tired and it's way past time
Then I hear a noise coming from behind
It sends a shiver down my spine
Bridge#2
I turn around with anticipation
Midnight hour assassination
Chorus
What am I to do?
I turn around with anticipation
Full of fire and confrontation
My hands shake, a bad situation
Midnight hour assassination
Solo
Chorus
2. Shock to the Heart
I know how you're divided
How your mind is torn in two
I know he's made you promises
Things I could never do
Knowing you must be with him
Yet wanting to see me
Needing love security
You're longing to be free
Bridge
Can't fight it
Can't resist
It's a crazy situation
It's the feeling inside
Chorus
Its a shock
It burns deep inside
Shock to the heart
It holds oh so tight
Right from the start
You're hooked so babe it must be love
Its a shock
Its there in the night
Shock to the heart
It shines oh so bright
Right from the start
You're hooked so babe it must be love
Yet I know, I understand that I must share the blame
'Cause when I first set eyes on you
That's when your troubles came
So don't be tied by thoughts of guilt
You do just what you please
There are only two votes you can take
You either stay or leave
Bridge
Can't fight it, cant resist
It's a crazy situation
It's a feeling inside
Chorus
Solo
Chorus
3. Voices from the Heart
Another lonely night here in an empty room
Wishing you were here by my side
You feel so close, yet we're so far away
Only time can really heal the pain
Bridge
Then I open my eyes
Look around but there's nobody there
Chorus
Voices
Voices from the heart
I can hear them calling
But I don't know what they say
Voices
Voices from the heart
True love wont desert you
The memory won't fade
The nights we touched then went our separate ways
How could our love have been so blind
You mean much more than you could ever know
Couldn't find the words to say I love you
Bridge
Chorus
Solo
Chorus
4. You are What You are
Everybody tries to climb a little higher
Higher
You may fool the others
But you can never fool me
Everybody wants to be a little wiser
Wiser
You're giving it all away
So why can't you see
Bridge
You want it so badly
This time you've almost made it
Chorus
You are what you are (x2)
Everybody talks about what they're gonna do
Gonna do
I know it not gonna be easy
But you still gotta try
Everybody feels they want to be a part of you
Part of you
You're giving it all away
Don't you ever ask why
Bridge
Chorus
You can take the chances
You Are what you are
This is what your heart says
You are what you are
Bridge#2
Its not too late
There's still time for you
Only you can make the chance
Only if you wanted to
Solo
Chorus
You can take the chances
You Are what you are
This is what your heart says
You are what you are
You know that you can make it
You are what you are
You've only gotta take it
5. Love is a Game
You're cold as ice
And you're fire and flame
Looking for someone to play your game
We all need a little loving some time
But your kind of loving ain't no love of mine
Bridge
Spin the wheel
Roll the ice
This games is loaded
And love is the price
Chorus
Oh, you're living a lie
Love is a game and its played by fools
Oh, its too late to cry
Love is a game without any rules
Another one night love affair
You're making out that you don't care
But now I'm playing you at your own game
When your hearts been broken
Loves never the same
Bridge
Chorus
Solo
Chorus
6. Cold Truth
Every night its the same old scene
I see the changes in you and me
I hear the stories that are going around
I want the truth but it just cant be found
I hold you tight but you're pulling away
But don't lie to me anymore
Don't you know what its doing to me
You're breaking my heart
But still don't you see
Bridge
In a world of changing style
There's no way to change your mind
Chorus
Cold Truth
Nothin' but the cold truth
I close my eyes
This is the cold truth
Love has the power to cut to the heart
It promises pleasure but turns into pain
I'm chained to your love but I cant break free
That smile on your face is still haunting me
There's nowhere to run
My backs to the wall
I'm falling apart now that I'm losing you
I've played the fool while you play your games
The damage is done and you are to blame
Bridge
In a world of changing style
You and I we almost made it
Almost made it
I get sad if you don't cry
There's no way to change your mind
Chorus
Chorus#2
Cold Truth
Nothin' but the cold truth
In a world full of lies
This is the cold truth
Solo
Chorus
7. If Tomorrow Comes
Here we are in the heat of the night fighting each other again
Don't turn around, 'til you understand this is more than a game
Now that I've found you
I'll never let go
I wont let you walk away
We shared too much to let it all disappear
I won't waste another day
Bridge
We've hurt each other
Don't keep your love inside
You make me feel so alive
Chorus
If tomorrow comes today
If tomorrow comes
We can start a whole new life
If tomorrow comes
If tomorrow comes today
If tomorrow comes
We can put this wrong to right
Too long we have lied to ourselves
And closed our eyes to the pain
Ignored the truth that was there to be seen
And the stories we couldn't explain
Life's so cold when you won't let me near
And your crying has torn us on two
I won't believe that we can't carry on
I've got to break through to you
Bridge
Chorus
Solo
Chorus
8. Can't Live without Your Love
Yesterdays gone
You can't see the tears I cried
Here on my own, you're a world away
Remember when our love was strong
Times have changed and the fire has gone
Pride builds a wall that nothing can break
Bridge
There's no turning back
No turning back
Tomorrows the future
Who knows what it brings
We sailed out together
Were drifting apart
Chorus#1
Can't live without your love (x3)
You got me on the run
Can't live without your love
The final night
Promises made, never to be broken
But just one mistake and you walked away
You say you thought about it
But your eyes are so cold
Only love can break down this wall of pride
Bridge
Chorus#2
Can't live without your love (x3)
I need a little time
Can't live without your love
Solo
Bridge
Chorus#2
Chorus#1
9. First Time
She plays tricks on my mind
I can't forget she twists the truth all the time
It's too late now
She's in control
She can set the night on fore
Sometimes I feel I put my heart on the line
Like dynamite, love can blow you away
Chorus#1
First time
I can't make it on my own
This is the first time
It's too late now the damage is done
Passions a chain you can't break free
It burns like a fire into my veins
Like a shot to the heart and she's got the gun
My reaction caught me off guard
I'm going crazy now...ain't that a shame
It's an illegal crime and love is to blame
Chorus#1
Chorus#2
First time
There ain't no way to save me now
This is the first time
I'm playing for keeps there's no turning back
oh-oh
Solo
Chorus#1
Chorus#2
Chorus#1
There ain't no way to save me now
10. Out of Love Again
horus
Out of love again (x3)
Yeah I'm out of love again
I knew I wanted you the very first night
I made a move and you acted so fine
But there's never a fire
Without a flame
You say its alright to have a good time
Don't take it too far
Don't cross the line
Others have tried
But no-ones come close
Chorus
I should know better
I've made my mistake
I'm just another heart that you break
I'm burning for love
And there's no holding back
They say I'm a fool
But I wont give in
Maybe you're wild
But that don't mean a thing
You're bad to the bone
But I'm playing to win
The painted smile on your face
I'm just pawn in your little game
Picture of pleasure
Got a bad reputation
You're like the kiss of death
Chorus
Solo
Chorus
