Caught inside your web of mystery
I'd like to find out where I'm going
Before you leave me
There's time enough to dream
Let your mind wander
But don't you leave me here alone
Sleep now
Take a rest for a while
You're tired and need to lay your head down
Close your eyes
There's nothing more to see
The darkness closes in around you
And now your mind is free
Surrender to the spell that you are under
You'll never find your way back home
Sleep now
Take a rest for a while
You're tired and need to lay your head down
Sleep now
The time has come to close your eyes
So go to sleep, I will not hurt you

CUPID IN CRISIS - (Robinson)
Broken glass beneath my feet like promises of love
A heart of stone too near the point of letting go
But where did I go wrong?
I felt the needle of his bow
But deep inside I think I know
Cupid in Crisis
Arrows fly and stray from course raining from above
An incidental injury, a casualty of love
That poison dart was strong
I love you more than I can stand
But now my heart is in your hands
Cupid in Crisis
From a cloud you can see forever
Can't you see me crying from the pain?
Cupid in Crisis
**************************************************************
CAUGHT IN THE RAIN - (Robinson)
Rain falls on my silhouette
Burns into my head
I sit and watch the place you left
Remembering what you said
I turn around to see you leave
But the sun gets in my eyes
You may have fooled with my life
But I ain't gonna break
I'm gonna take your advice
You told me
Don't get caught in the rain
Cause when the rain's falling I can't get near to you
Don't get caught in the rain
Cause when the rain's falling there's nothing I can do

BABY NEEDS A LOVER
She's working Friday nights and weekends
Just to make enough to stay alive
She tries to hide the way she's feeling
Behind a too familiar smile
Do you think she needs someone to love her?
Do you know the way she feels inside?
Baby needs a lover like she needs a friend
But she spends all her lifetime looking for the perfect man
She don't have much time for lovin'
And she's too strong to sit and cry
The clock on the wall says time is moving
But life just seems to pass her by
Do you think she needs someone to love her?
Do you know the way she feels inside?
Baby needs a lover like she needs a friend
But she spends all her lifetime looking for the perfect man
*******************************************************************
BLACK SPIDER - (Robinson)
I never knew that a girl like you could hurt me so
Running down the dream I found and letting it go
No you never did know
What you wanted from me
What you wanted to be
What you want for yourself
Want for somebody else
I didn't know you were one of those girls who's like a
Black Spider
I know what you're feeling
Trying to make a meal of me
Black Spider
Watching what you're doing
Trying to get me hooked on you
You want to be all the things you see are beautiful
But don't you see that what you need ain't worth it all?
No you never did know
What you wanted from me
What you want me to be
What you want for yourself
Want for somebody else
I don't believe a word you're trying to sell
Cause you're a
Black Spider
I know what you're feeling
Trying to make a meal of me
Black Spider
Watching what you're doing
Trying to get me hooked on you
************************************************
SPELL - (Robinson)
The look in her eyes is inviting
But don't be fooled by her disguise
She'll burn you quicker than lightning
You'll be paralysed
The smell of her sex will surround you
She'll blow your mind when she goes down
But there'll be nowhere to run to when she comes around
She's got a spell on you
But you think that she's easy
She told you that she loves you
Now you're trying to please her
(She's got a) spell on you
Now I'm trying to make you see
That she's trying to put her spell on me
She plays with your mind like a gambler
She catches on and there's nowhere to hide
She'll let you ride up inside her but you'll never survive
She's got a spell on you
But you think that she's easy
She told you that she loves you
Now you're trying to please her
(She's got a) spell on you
Now I'm trying to make you see
That she's trying to put her spell on me
The promise of pleasure implores you
Your mind is racing like a rat on a wheel
But when she takes off her makeup her intent is revealed
She's got a spell on you
But you think that she's easy
She told you that she loves you
Now you're trying to please her
(She's got a) spell on you
Now I'm trying to make you see
That she's trying to put her spell on me
She's evil in disguise
She makes you weak, you're paralysed
You want too much, she takes it all
She's got you hanging by the balls
****************************************************
A stilted conversation lingers in the air
But it seems to be all my imagination
The walls of silence break into my head
I hear the words but you don't say it
What does it mean when you let the phone ring?
What does it mean when I get no reply
Are you washing your hair?
What does it mean when the answer's right in front of me
Does it mean that you don't care - that the feeling's dead
Suspicious observations preying on my mind
Set the scene for jealous confrontation
Bitter angry words melt your disguise
There's nothing left to say, I'm left behind
I guess I should have known
You shouldn't trust beautiful people
Don't believe the writing on the wall
And when it's all gone you'll still hang on to broken dreams
But never know what it means
**************************************************************************
IN MY DREAMS - (Robinson)
I know the way you feel about me isn't what I'm hoping for
And all the time you spend around me doesn't mean that much at all
But you can't help the way you feel
But in my dreams you're always with me
In my dreams you won't ever leave
Let the night go on and on
Cause when the morning comes I know you'll be gone
You know, the way I feel about you is a secret I must hide
And all the things I hear about you, well they just tear me up inside
But you don't know the way I feel
But in my dreams you're always with me
In my dreams you won't ever leave
Let the night go on and on
Cause when the morning comes I know you'll be gone
And when the night descends upon me
And the shadows creep inside
I know that you'll be in my dreams tonight
***************************************************************
ELEVATOR - (Robinson)
I take your abuse with a casual smile
Cos I can always find a reason to justify it
I want you to feel like I'm on your side
But sometimes it's easier to run and hide
Remember how it felt when you were on your own
You weren't the only one
Sometimes it feels like I'm always falling for someone
You make me feel so insecure
But I can deal with that on my way home
And something has been preying on my mind
Why'd you turn away when I looked into your eyes?
Sometimes I get the feeling that I'm on my own
Am I the only one?
I can't believe that I'm always falling for someone
You make me feel like an elevator
Get me up and take me down
You make me feel so good when you're taking me for a ride
You make me feel like an elevator
Get me up, We're going down
And though I feel like a fool, there's something about your smile.
************************************************************************
TODAY I'LL CRY - (Robinson)
Don't know where you are tonight
Wonder if you're alone
But were you by my side I'd be okay
I'd love to be your alibi
The one who takes you home
And hold you close before we part again
I want to feel you in my arms again
And hold you until I die
But today I'll cry cause you're not by my side
You're the place I want to be
I'll never let you go
I want to hear you say that you'll be mine
A fantasy more real than dream
A love I've never known
A tender kiss more sweet than candy wine
I want to feel you in my arms again
And hold you until I die
But today I'll cry cause you're not by my side
********************************************************
GET IT ON (BE MY BABY) - (Robinson)
Now you know the way I feel about you
Can't you hear me calling out your name?
I want to know everything there is about you
I need to know if your feelings are the same
I want you to get it on
I want you to be my baby
I want you to get it on
I want you to drive me crazy
So now you know the secret I've been keeping
So maybe now you'll hear me when I call
And maybe now you'll find me when you're sleeping
I jumped over the edge and I began to fall
I want you to get it on
I want you to be my baby
I want you to get it on
I want you to drive me crazy
*************************************************
DREAM GIRL - (Robinson)
Reality was never good to me
I see more clearly with eyes closed
You know that truth is just what you believe
The more I see, the less I know
Dream Girl, you're my fantasy
Won't you be a part of my reality?
When you sleep forever, tell me what is real?
Let the darkness carry me away
To a place where all you see gives way to dreams
Disappear behind the light of day
Dream Girl, You're my fantasy
Won't you be a part of my reality?
Dream Girl, I believe in you
Won't you make this poor boy's dreams come true?
****************************************************
KEY (TO ATLANTIS) - (Robinson)
In my dream a tale unfolds
A story I am yet to know
A deep remembrance in my soul
A memory from long ago
When your walls came down you slipped into the sea
Now all your secrets lay unknown until we find the key
I hear you screaming as I sleep
Your city sinks into the deep
And oh so clearly I can see
The magic that will never be
When your walls came down you slipped into the sea
Now all your secrets lay unknown until we find the key to Atlantis
All your magic dead and gone
And yet your legend carries on
And now I dream of days of old
So that your story may be told
*******************************************************************
COMING BACK AGAIN - (Robinson)
We spend our lives playing the same old games
We roll the same old dice ten times again
This road loops back upon itself
I took a wrong turn somewhere else
And now I'm coming back again
We walk the same familiar streets
And everything is as it's always been
This road loops back upon itself
I took a wrong turn somewhere else
And now I'm coming back again
************************************************************
