Runaway - Roulette - She Don't Know Me - Shot Through The Heart
Love Lies - Breakout - Burning For Love - Come back - Get Ready

01 - Runaway (JBJ/GK)

On the streets where you live




Back to top


Girls talk about their social lives
They're made of lipstick, plastic and paint
A touch of secret in their eyes

All your life, all your life, all you've asked
When's your daddy gonna talk to you
She was living in an other world
Tryin' to get her message through

No-one heard a single word you said
They should have seen it in your eyes
What was going round your head

Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things she couldn't say
Ooh she's a little runaway

A different line every night,
Guaranteed to blow your mind
I see you out on the streets
Combing for a wild time
So you sit home alone
'cause there's nothing left that you can do
There's only pictures hung in the shadows
Left there to look at you

You know she likes the lights at night
On the neon Broadway signs
She don't really mind
It's only love she hopes to find

Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things she couldn't say
Ooh she's a little runaway

No-one heard a single word you said
They should have seen it in your eyes
What was going round your heart

Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things he couldn't say
Ooh she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
Now she was the night away

02 - Roulette (JBJ/RS)

Bet the black, comes in red




Back to top


Crimes of passion rule my head
I need you, you want him, dressed to kill
We live in sin
I know the game you play, I know it well
You just keep on playin' when all the bets are down

Roulette
Goin' round in a spin
Caught up in a game you can't win
Roulette
You're just a fantasy
Its everything that you want it to be

Play the numbers one by one
Fire the shot and the damage is done
Restless lovers pay the price
Cheating hearts don't think twice
When you make the rules
No one can slow you down
You just keep 'em waiting
When you're on the prowl

Roulette
Goin' round in a spin
Caught up in a game you can't win
Roulette
You're just a fantasy
Its everything that you want it to be
Roulette
Goin' round in a spin
Caught up in a game you can't win
Roulette
You're just a fantasy
Its everything that you want it to be

Backdoor runner got away this time
Leaves her mark at the scene of the crime
Nothing matters no faces no names
You're just a number, its all the same
You just love to play the game

I know the game you play, I know it well
You just keep on playin' when all the bets are down

Roulette
Goin' round in a spin
Caught up in a game you can't win
Roulette
You're just a fantasy
Its everything that you want it to be
Roulette
Goin' round in a spin
Caught up in a game you can't win
Roulette
You're just a fantasy
Its everything that you want it to be

03 - She Don't Know Me (MA)

What more can I do ?
There's nothing I haven't tried
Still it's so hard for her to notice




Back to top


I've tried hard to be straight
There's nothing left I can say
If only she would look my way

She don't know me, she don't know
She don't see me, she don't care
She can't hear me, she can't hear
Cannot help me, she don't want
She don't want me, like I want her
Like I want her, I gotta tell her
Got to tell her, That I love her
That I love her
She doesn't even know my name

I dream of when she'll be mine
I dream of crossing that line
And holding her so tender
Dreaming it could come true
So many things I could do
If only you'd give me a chance

She don't know me, she don't know
She don't see me, she don't care
She can't hear me, she can't hear
Cannot help me, she don't want
She don't want me, like I want her
Like I want her, I gotta tell her
Got to tell her, That I love her
That I love her
She doesn't even know my name

She don't know me, she don't know
She don't see me, she don't care
She can't hear me, she can't hear
Cannot help me, she don't want
She don't want me, like I want her
Like I want her, I gotta tell her
Got to tell her, That I love her
That I love her
She doesn't even know my name

04 - Shot Through The Heart (JBJ/GP)


Back to top



Shot through the heart
It's all part of the game that we call love

Would you be content to see me crying ?
After all those little games you put me through
After all I've done for you you're lying
Wouldn't it be nice to tell the truth ?

Didn't somebody somewhere say
You're gonna take a fall
I gave you everything
Now here's the curtain call

And I'm shot through the heart as I lay there alone
In the dark through the heart
It's all part of this game that we call love

Now you've come back here to say you're sorry
I just don't know who you're talking to
It could be the man I used to be, girl
I've grown up and now I'm over you

Standing there just a live wire
With nowhere left to turn
You were gonna set the world on fire
Won't you never learn?

Now you're shot through the heart as I lay there alone
In the dark through the heart
It's all part of the game that we call love

Standing there just a live wire
With nowhere left to turn
You were gonna set the world on fire
Won't you never learn ?

Now you're shot

Baby does what baby please
And baby must have what she sees
But not this time, the tables turned
Baby, you just got burned

Shot through the heart as I lay there alone
In the dark through the heart
It's all part of the game that we call love
Shot through the heart as I lay there alone
In the dark through the heart
It's all part of the game that we call love

05 - Love Lies (JBJ/DB)



Back to top


I was lost, then I found you
I never thought it would be this way
Showed you my heart, I left it unguarded
Like a thief in the night you stole it away

Now you're gone, the pain goes on and on
I still hear you whispering to me
Through the shadows of the night

Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines
You're running on into the cold night
You're just a number to the love lies

All alone you call it survival
He lost at love to a stranger's lines
Walking the streets, searching with vengeance
For a face that he dreams of night after night

Time goes on, all signs of life stolen
Simple dreams were all broken
Best of times become desperation
But how many tears must you cry to survive

Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines
You're running on into the cold night
You're just a number to the love lies
Love lies, you're just another victim of the headlines
You're running on into the cold night
Just a number to the love lies

They met late one night in the city
Both men knew only one would stay
Scratched a picture of a heart on a bullet
And took his life away

Love lies, you're just another victim of the headlines
You're running on into the cold night
Just a number to the love lies
Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines
You're running on into the cold night
You're just a number to the love lies

06 - Breakout (JBJ/DB)

This time Girl I've had enough
You're too hot to handle with kid gloves
Its too late I hear a knock on the door




Back to top


The game's over baby I can't take
It no more

Breakout, Breakout
Take these chains from me
You held my heart for ransom
Baby, set it free
Breakout, Breakout
Your lies can't hide what I see
I'm better off on my own

Promises made in the heat of the night
Those words were broken under bedroom lights
Your lips they burn your body calls my name
I can feel the fire but its all in vain

Breakout, Breakout
Take these chains from me
You held my heart for ransom
Baby, set it free
Breakout, Breakout
Your lies can't hide what I see
I'm better off on my own
Breakout, Breakout
Take these chains from me
You held my heart for ransom
Baby, set it free
Breakout, Breakout
Your lies can't hide what I see
I'm better off on my own

You say we'll meet around midnight
You're gonna make me feel oh so right
I'm saying oh no no not tonight
You gotta let me go

Breakout, Breakout
Take these chains from me
You held my heart for ransom
Baby, set it free
Breakout, Breakout
Your lies can't hide what I see
I'm better off on my own
Breakout, Breakout
Take these chains from me
You held my heart for ransom
Baby, set it free
Breakout, Breakout
Your lies can't hide what I see
I'm better off on my own

07 - Burning For Love (JBJ/RS)

I've been lied to, you been cheated
I've been cried to, you been mistreated
I've been watching you, you want action
You need love and I need satisfaction

I'm burning for love
Filled with desire
I can't stand the heat
My heart's on fire
I can't get enough
Its down to the wire
Making my move, I'm looking for you
I'm burning for love

You're the victim its in your eyes
I'm the suspect and loves the crime
Tensions mounting bodies shaking
I can't take the anticipation

I'm burning for love
Filled with desire
I can't stand the heat
My heart's on fire
I can't get enough
Its down to the wire
Making my move, I'm looking for you
I'm burning for love

Now that I got you in my sight
Can't take another sleepless night
Oh no, no
You can run but you can't hide
You're the only one I need
To feel the fire inside

I'm burning for love
Filled with desire
I can't stand the heat
My heart's on fire
I'm burning for love
Filled with desire
I can't stand the heat
My heart's on fire
I can't get enough
Its down to the wire
Making my move, I'm looking for you
I'm burning for love

08 - Come Back (JBJ/RS)

Now that you're gone, I can see what
Was going on and how you lied
When you'd said you'd never love again


Back to top



Friends telephone and they say
You weren't out alone last night
Can't you see that this broken heart
Is killing me

Another night is falling
And now my heart is calling you back to me

Come back cause I need your love
Come back got to have your love
Come back bring your loving back to me
Come back cause its been so long
Come back and I can't go on
Come back bring your loving back to me

You play with words play with love
Its just your silly way
I'm a fool cause I need you by my side again

Now its too late you walk by
With another man
And I stand alone
Cause I know that you're not coming home

Another night is falling
And now my heart is calling you back to me

Come back cause I need your love
Come back got to have your love
Come back bring your loving back to me
Come back cause its been so long
Come back and I can't go on
Come back bring your loving back to me

Another night is calling
And now my heart is calling you back to me

Come back cause I need your love
Come back got to have your love
Come back bring your loving back to me
Come back cause its been so long
Come back and my love's still strong
Come back bring your loving back to me
Come back cause I need your love
Come back got to have your love
Come back bring your loving back to me
Come back cause its been so long
Come back and I can't go on
Come back bring your loving back to me

Back to me

Come back

09 - Get Ready (JBJ/RS)

You need someone to make it last




Back to top


No Romeos who'll love and leave you fast
They fade away
Tonight you're not gonna be alone
Making love on the telephone
Baby, baby if you can hold on
I'm gonna take you all the way tonight
I like 'em down and dirty, hold on tight

Come on, get ready
Come on, get ready

You're looking sharp in your dancin' shoes
You got the style and you got the moves
Oh you're so hot, girl and on the loose
You're caught up in a danger zone
Just seventeen but you act full grown
The nightlife, Baby, is turning you on
You want to take me all the way tonight
Take my hand, can you feel the heat
Make you feel alright

Come on, get ready
Come on, get ready
