Mirrors

Dance on fire with me babe

The flames ain't gonna stop

Come on and show me

That you're ready to trot

 

So if you really wanna do it

You better do it hot

 

Ah my babe

You tell me that you're scared

But your fear

Is just driving me mad

 

Well, you can call me Dr. Music

Music is my game

Well, you can call me Dr. Music

Music is my name

 

Girl don't stop that screamin'

You're sounding so sincere

So much beauty

In the tracks of your tears

 

So if you wanna face the music

Open up your ears

 

Meet my friend

Calamity Jane

Hear the rhythm

In the sound of her pain

 

Well, you can call me Dr. Music

Music is my game

Well, you can call me Dr. Music

Music is my name

They have killed the great sun jester

Who danced between the stars

They have stripped him of his manhood

Signs of Venus and of Mars

The cynics left him weeping

And the jackals left him torn

And the jester reaches out bind hands

He can touch the stars no more.

 

CHORUS:

And he took the stars in his hands

And as he scattered them he'd shout

"I'm the joker of the universe

I'm what it's all about."

Now he's dying in his grief

And the hard men dragged him down

They have killed the wild-eyed jester

They have killed the fireclown

 

Now his blind eyes seek the starlight

And his fingers seek controls

To take him into space again

Where he was both young and old

The dancers stiff with pain

And they've made him kneel too long

And the madness they have driven out

They've left him cold and sane.

 

CHORUS

 

He'll never - sing his songs - again....

He'll never dance between the stars - again....

He'll never laught - again....

No he'll never ever laugh again....

Oh, no....

A mirror is a negative space

With a frame and a place for your face

It reveals what the rest of us see

It conceals what you'd like it to be

 

Pretty girls can't look away

Pretty girls can't look away

Pretty girls can't look away

Pretty girls can't look away

 

Pretty girls have a love affair

With their eyes and their shining hair

Fantasize that the world adores

Tantalize like a cover girl

 

Mirrors are the basis of beauty

Give rise to self love or self pity

The prize if a woman is pretty

She tries like a superstar Hollywood girl

 

Pretty girls can't look away

Pretty girls can't look away

Pretty girls can't look away

Pretty girls can't look away

 

Vanity's a deadly sin

It's what the flesh is packaged in

Vanity's a deadly sin

It's what the flesh is packaged in

 

Pretty girls have a love affair

With their eyes and their shining hair

Fantasize that the world adores

Tantalize like a cover girl



Mirrors are a negative space

With a frame and a place for your face

They reveal what the rest of us see

They conceal what you'd like it to be

 

Vanity's a deadly sin

It's what the flesh is packaged in

Did you catch the fever

Flying toward the moon?

Sailing in space to a distant shore

You kind of wondered

What they came here for

 

We lived days for lovin'

Falling for all we met

A world gone crazy from the lunacy

The tides kept rising and falling

Like you and me

 

Moon crazy

Summer of changes

Let the night shine on (and on) and on

Shine on until the feeling is gone

Dreaming about, what could it be

Summer's embraces

Had a hold on me

 

On the hill they danced 'til dawn

While the video flickered along

But in your heart was an empty need

You just didn't know

Where the dream would lead

 

Moon crazy

Summer of changes

Let the night shine on (and on) and on

Shine on, shine on

 

Moon crazy

Summer of changes

Let the night shine on (and on) and on

Shine on until the feeling is gone

Dreaming about, what could it be

Summer's embraces

Had a hold on me

 

Moon crazy

Summer of madness

Let the night shine on (and on) and on

Shine on until the feeling is gone

Dreaming about, what could it be

Summer's embraces

Had a hold on me

In a purple vision

Many thousand years ago

I saw the silent stranger

Walk the earth alone

 

Twenty-seven faces

With their eyes turned to the sky

I've got a camera

And an airtight alibi

 

I know they're out there

We see them coming

Faster than the speed of light

They greet us in the dead of the night

 

Somewhere, someday, someone

They'll be light and sound

They'll alight on the ground

On which we stand

 

Somewhere, someday, someone

Will help us to survive

They're gonna show us hell

And bring us back alive

 

Well, I'm no poet, but I can't be fooled

The lies don't count, the whispers do

I hear the whispers on the wind

They say the earth has fallen due

 

We run in circles

Our days are numbered

Every night I look away

To the heavens and I pray

 

Come to us

Come to us

 

Our lights are dim

Our roads are crumbling

And we don't know what to do

We're sick and tired

And dying to meet you

'Cause we bit off more than

We can chew

You scorned the love that I gave you

You lied now nothing can save you

Blue skies are turning to grey

I know the games that you play

Winds of rage they start to build

Too much madness will lay you under

The cards you draw don't help at all

Hear the sound of approaching thunder

 

When you see the clouds blacken

Remember you've been warned

No shelter from my fierce winds

Because, I am the storm

 

You'll hear my echoes of anger

You'll fear the roar of my thunder

Nightmares, confusion will come true

Aces and eights are the fate that you drew

Lightning bolts become my swords

When I pull them from the sky

Run my gauntlet of slashing rain

You won't survive to testify

 

When you see the clouds blacken

Remember you've been warned

No shelter from my fierce winds

Because, I am the storm

I used to lie in my bed

Sleep wouldn't come

Thinkin' 'bout things that they said

They led me on

All of the fancy ladies

Oh they could talk and talk

 

I shot for the highest star

But I aimed too high

You wanted a rich rock star

But he made you cry

Now that we have each other

We can laugh about it

 

CHORUS:

You're not the one I was lookin' for but

You're the one for me (you're the one)

I'm not the one you were lookin' for but

You can't go wrong with me

You're not the one I was lookin' for but

You're oh so good for me

 

Now I can't make it without

I can't go on

We can make beautiful music

And prove them wrong

We've been put down by the best

And now we laugh about it, ya

 

(CHORUS)

 

You're oh so good for me (You're so good) (3X'S)

Lonely teardrops, you been crying

I hear them fall

In the night the empty night

I hear your song

It goes right through me

It used to move me

(Lonely, lonely)

 

Lonely Paris, met a dancer

We did the stroll

Through the night the empty night

Four years ago

I thought you know me

She gave it to me

(Lonely, lonely)

 

CHORUS:

I seem to see a rose

I reach out then it goes

Now in its thorns I roam

The sky is grey and I am cold

Lord I tell you, Lord I tell you

All I want to do is get back home

 

Lonely teardrops, we did shoot them

They came on strong

Vials of rain to kill the pain

So far from home

I thought you knew me

You did it to me

(Lonely, lonely)

 

Lonely teardrops, I've been cryin'

All week long

Love is willing but the bed is cold

Goodbye, Laurence

I thought I knew you

What good did that do

(Lonely, lonely)

 

CHORUS:

I seem to see a rose

I reach out then it goes

Now in its thorns I roam

You never know until you know

Lord I ask you, Lord I beg you

All I want to do is get back home

 

Lonely teardrops (REPEAT)
