MIDNITE
I know I've been away some time
And baby, I can tell you
You've been on my mind
Ooh yeah, we've got a love so fine
Hold out 'til the evening time
Ooh and I'll be there at midnight
Ooh and we'll play 'til we get it right
Ooh yes I'll be there at midnight
To hold you tight, hold you tighter
You know I couldn’t tell a lie
As soon as I could think
It's gonna be goodbye
Ooh yeah don’t want to see you cry
Hold out 'til the evening times yeah
Chorus

Watching you, watching you, watching you
Yes I'll be there at midnight
Stay 'til the morning light
Yes I'll be there at midnight
To hold you tight, hold you tighter

TRYIN' TO REACH YOU
Don’t want no trouble and I don’t want to fight
Just want a loving that I need tonight
All I can say is that it's got to be right
With no excuses and no alibis
This is the moment, I've made up my mind
Got to be cruel if I want to be kind
Don’t want to lose it when it's so hard to find
Don’t want to be the one who's left behind
Tryin' to reach you baby
Show you how I feel inside
I'm tryin' to teach you baby
A loving that should never die
If you'd just listen everything would be fine
It won't take long, it's just a matter of time
To give it up now would be a crime
Chorus
A loving that just won't die
Don’t want no trouble, don’t want to fight
Just give the loving that I need tonight
All I can tell you is it's got to be right
With no excuses and no alibis
Chorus
A loving that should never die
Chorus
A loving that should never die
Gonna reach you baby
Show you how I feel inside
I'm gonna teach you baby
A loving that should never die
Gonna reach you baby
Show you how I feel inside
I'm gonna teach you baby
A loving that should never die

SAVING GRACE
Girl you know from time to time
We'll break each others' hearts
And you know that from time to time
Life seems to fall apart
But there is one thing I know so well
Sure has got to be true
When we're lying there in the night
I know I feel this love for you
It's your saving grace, saving grace
Girl you know that from time to time
It seems so hard to get through
You wind me up and you make me so mad
Some day I'm gonna swing for you
Then in a moment there's something else
I can't deny
The strangest feeling, a magic spell
When love is shining in your eyes
Baby, it's your saving grace
I just want your saving grace
Give it to me, saving grace
Got to have your saving grace
And there is one thing I know for sure
When we're together at night
I feel your saving grace
I just want your saving grace
Give it to me saving grace
I just need your saving grace
Give it to me, give it to me saving grace
I just need your saving grace
Give it to me, saving grace
Got to have your saving grace
I just want it, got to have it saving grace
Saving grace, saving grace
I just want your saving grace
Give it to me saving grace
Got to have it, got to have it
Saving grace, saving grace

CLOCKS
There are no clocks in here
Time just doesn’t seem to exist
A brief respite where nothing changes
Time is to me, avenging angels
Lost in the night looking for a stranger
This is no place for fear
There is nothing here to resist
Don’t have to fight emotions' rages
Oh life seems to be so full of danger
With a twist of the knife
Suddenly the pain comes
There are no, there are no
There are no, there are no clocks in here
Taken a brief respite oh where nothing changes
Chorus
Said I'm lost in the night looking for a stranger
Hey oh
Chorus
Time just doesn’t exist
Chorus

REFUGEES
Night out at the movies
Through the pouring rain
Another turn but there's a story
And our money's down the drain
Just as I was contemplating
Whether to stay or to go
Two men came and sat beside me
In my hand they placed a note
It said
We are the Refugees
We are the Refugees
They took me out of a side door
To the back of a limousine
Yeah they drove me to the point of madness
To a place where I'd never been
They led me through a darkened hallway
When something shook the ground
Suddenly a door was opened
And I was deafened by the sound
They said
We are the Refugees, we are the Refugees
We are the Refugees, we are the Refugees
We are the Refugees, we are the Refugees
Provocation, we are the Refugees
Constipation, we are the Refugees
No destination, we are the Refugees
Contamination, we are the Refugees
Denigration, we are the Refugees
Immunisation, we are the Refugees
Violation, we are the Refugees
Declaration, we are the Refugees
Starvation, we are the Refugees
Liar time, we are the Refugees
Aaaahh, we are the Refugees

ONLY LOVE
Is this real or are you pretending?
I've got to know if our love is ending
This broken heart seems to be mending
Don't let it slip away
Sometimes it's good but there's no denying
Sometimes it's bad, makes me feel like dying
This broken heart seems to be sighing
Just another day
So tell me if I'm right or wrong
I refuse to believe that it can't go on
Maybe I'm fooling myself hanging on to dream
To somebody else, is it love?
It's only love that keeps me strong
And gives me the strength to say carry on
But only love can break your heart
I've got to know for sure
Is this love
Is it love, only love
Don’t wanna hear any more of your lying
I've tried so hard 'til I'm sick of trying
This broken heart seems to be crying
You're throwing it all away
I've got to feel that it's worth defending
This broken heart can't be defending
Tomorrow's another day
So tell me if I'm right or wrong
I refuse to believe that it takes so long
Maybe I'm fooling myself
Chorus
Chorus
Only love keeps me strong
Only love keeps me strong
Only love, only love
Only love keeps me strong

KEEP US TOGETHER
You never believe anything I say
True - you don’t know the meaning of anyway
You lied today, I saw inside
I couldn't believe my eyes
Didn’t know there was anything wrong 'til now
You, you never trusted me anyhow
You've changed but I still feel the same
I can't put out the flame
I want you back again
Keep us together
Don’t say goodbye (don't say goodbye)
I'll love you forever, don't let our love die
There'll come a time when you will be mine
You, you made me love you right from the start
True, you don’t even care that you broke my heart
You claim that you still feel the same
To you it's just a game
But I can't stand the pain
Keep us together
Don’t say goodbye (don't say goodbye)
I'll love you forever, don't let our love die
Don’t make me cry
There'll come a time when you will be mine
Keep us together
Don’t say goodbye (don't say goodbye)
I'll love you forever, don't let our love die
Keep us together
Don’t say goodbye (don't say goodbye)
I'll love you forever, give love one last try
Don’t make me cry
And maybe in time you will be mine
Keep us together
Don’t say goodbye (don't say goodbye)
I'll love you forever, don't let our love die
Don’t let love die
There'll come a time when you will be mine

HEART
I met that lady on a downhill run
Just a stranger passing by oh, oh
And when I looked, I could see myself
Behind the shadow of her smile
Why do you love me like you do
Why do you make me feel so good
Why do you love me like you do
Did you want me to stay forever
Why do you love me like you do
Did you want me to stay forever
I've got a heart like satin, a heart like steel
A heart that never wanted to feel your love
I had no secrets and no alibis
She read every thought inside my mind
Maybe she is an angel in disguise
With a ghost of a devil in her eyes
I've got a heart like satin, a heart like steel
A heart that never wanted to feel your love
Your love oh, your love, oooh
I've got a heart
Chorus
My heart is in your hands
Never wanted to feel your love
Your love oh, your love, oooh
My heart is in your hands
Never wanted to feel your love

CHINA SEIZE
A curse is upon the sun
A legacy for everyone
Wish there was sunlight to brighten the way
But under this darkened sky
Lost in indecision
Ships in the night pass by, fired by desire
Though you know you'll never find a way out
Floating on a china breeze
Sailing on the china seas
Don’t ever look straight at the sun
A lesson not learned by everyone
Stumble in blindness and stagger away
Into the dark of night
Subject of derision
See how the dragons fly high into the fire
Chorus
Chorus
Poppies grow under the sun
The devils' work never is done
Evil and misery lying in wait
Under this darkened sky where there is no vision
Those who are left to die to sink into the mire
Though they know they'll never find the way out
Floating on a china breeze, sailing on a china sea
Floating on a china breeze, sailing on a china freeze
Floating on a china breeze, sailing on a china freeze
Floating on a china breeze, sailing on the china seas
China seize
