@SONG: More Than This

I could feel at the time
There was no way of knowing
Fallen leaves in the night
Who can say where they're blowing
As free as the wind
And hopefully learning
Why the sea on the tide
Has no way of turning

CHORUS
More than this-there is nothing
More than this-tell me one thing
More than this-thre is nothing

It was fun for a while
There was no way of knowing
Like a dream in the night
Who can say where we're going
No care in the world
Maybe I'm learning
Why the sea on the tide
Has no way of turning

CHORUS

@SONG: The Space Between

The way I see it
This relationship ain't right
The space between us
Better close it up tonight
The space between us
Close it up tonight

The way I see it
This relationship ain't right
The space between us
Listen here, listen, listen here, listen
We better
Close it up tonight
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@SONG: Avalon

Now the party's over
I'm so tired
Then I see you coming
Out of nowhere
Much communication in a motion
Without conversation or a notion

Avalon

When the samba takes you
Out of nowhere
And the background's fading
Out of focus
Yes, the picture's changing
Every moment
And your destination
You don't know it

Avalon

When you bossanova
There's no holding
Would you have me dancing
Out of nowhere

Avalon

@SONG: While My Heart Is Still Beating
(Bryan Ferry/Andy Mackay)

All of those people
Everywhere
Ever so needing
Where's it all leading
Tell me where
Nothing insincere

I'd better have pity
I'd better go easy
I never will lay down
While my heart is still beating

Where it's all leading
Walk on air
Am I still dreaming
Words to spare
Lost in their meaning

I'd better be strong now
I'd better stop dreaming
My heart has flown away now
Will it never stop bleeding?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@SONG: The Main Thing

Look at my hand
There's a soul on fire
You can lead me even higher
The main thing

Everybody knows
When a good thing's gone
You can really turn me on
The main thing

You run through here
With your words of sand
I can nearly understand
The main thing
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@SONG: Take a Chance with Me
(Bryan Ferry/Phil Manzanera)

As they say, two can play
But keep that song away from me
In my time, too much love
Has made me sad for so long

I was blind, can't you see
Through the long, lonely night
Heaven knows I believe
Won't you take a chance with me

Sometimes I get so blue
People say I'm just a fool
All the world, even you
Should learn to love the way I do

I was lost, can't you see
Through the long, lonely night
Haven knows, I believe
You can take a chance with me
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@SONG: To Turn You On

I could show you in a word
If I wanted to
A window on a world
With a lovely view
>From close up inside a single room
With an open book aside
Like you read in school

It's so easy, believe me
When you need fun
I'd do anything to turn you on
Anything to to turn you on

Is it raining in New York
On Fifth Avenue
And off Broadway after dark
Love the lights, don't you
I could walk you through the park
If you're feeling blue
Or whatever

Spring, summer, whenever
Winter through fall
I'd do anything to turn you on
Anything to turn you on

I could leave you as you were
If I wanted to
Then I wonder, is it fair
Now you're on your own
Who cares about you
Except me, God help me
When things go wrong

I'd do anything to turn you on
Must phone me, you know me
When things go wrong
I'd do anything to turn you on
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@SONG: True to Life

So it gets to seven
And I think of nothing
But living in darkness
And the diamond lady
Well, she's not telling
I don't even know here name

It's amazing
Times have changed
In days of old
Imagination'd leave you standing
Out in the cold

Dancing city
Now you're talking
But where's your soul-you've a thousand faces
I'll never know

There are complications
And compensations
If you know the game
Agitated in Xenon nightly
I'll take you home again

Travel way downtown
In search of nothing
But the sky at night
And the diamond lady
Well, she's not talking
But that's all right

So I turn the pages
And tell the story
>From town to town
People tell me
Be determined
Poor country boy

Too much luck
Means too much trouble
Much time alone
But arm in arm
With my seaside diamond
I'll soon be home
