Big Dreamers Never Sleep

Gino Vanelli Big Dreamers Never Sleep歌詞
1.In The Name Of Money

The sun rises after midnight
Big dreamers never sleep
She takes a slow walk in the red light
Wishin' on the stars in concrete
Jet black roots under alabaster hair
Betty grable legs gonna get her somewhere
She's runnin' every light on the road to recognition
Under one condition

In the name of money
In the name of fame
Anything goes
When you play that game
In the name of money
In the name of fame
You gotta stick it out
If you want to claim your fame

So some hotshot in a rag top
Gets her on the silver screen
A hundred mirrors far a backdrop
But her face was never seen
Agents of love, devils in disguise
They're blowin' smoke in the little girl's eyes
Yeah, she'll sign the dotted line and fall into submission
Under on condition

In the name of money
In the name of fame
Anything goes
When you play that game
In the name of money
In the name of fame
You gotta stick it out
If you want to claim your fame

Someday she'll be a leading lady
In a baby blue mercede'
When she's rich and famous
Her scandals will entertain us
The badder the better

Jet black roots under alabaster hair
Betty grable legs gonna get her somewhere
She's runnin' every light on the road to recognition
Under one condition

In the name of money
In the name of fame
Anything goes
When you play that game
In the name of money
In the name of fame
You gotta stick it out
If you want to claim your fame


2.Time Out

Running in the human race
'round in circles
No sense of time and space
Or who we are
Let me pour some water in your wine
Let's talk about the future
We should have better things on our minds anyway

No time for words
No time for wars
It's high time we work it out
No time for fighting
No time for tears
Somebody tell me what it's all about
We could be making the best of the night
But all we do is scream and shout
Time out ..... for love

Lovers on a battlefield
A house divided
Eyes that pierce like maked steel
Through the heart
Come lay your wounded body down
And talk about the future
Throw your weapons to the ground
Before it's too late

No time for words
No time for wars
It's high time we work it out
No time for fighting
No time for tears
Somebody tell me what it's all about
We could be making the best of the night
But all we do is scream and shout
Time out ..... for love

No time for words
No time for wars
It's high time we work it out
No time for fighting
No time for tears
Somebody tell me what it's all about
We could be making the best of the night
But all we do is scream and shout
Time out ..... for love


3.Wild Horses

As the sun goes down on the arizona plain
And the wind whistles by like a runaway train
Hey hey hey it's a beautiful thing
Well it's me and you and a flatbed truck
My heart kicking over like a whitetail buck
Hey hey hey in the middle of spring

You can cut me deep
You can cut me down
You can cut me loose
Don't you know it's okay
You can kick and scream
You can slap my face
You can set my wheels on a high speed chase
Hey no matter what you do

Wild horses could not drag me away from you
Wild horses could not drag me away from you

As the sky falls down from the midnight blue
Spittin' like bullets on a hot tin roof
Hey hey hey it's a beautiful sound
Well it's me and you in a flatbed truck
In a foot of mud just my luck
Hey hey hey a hundred miles out of town

You can call me a fool
You can call me blind
You can call it quits
Can't hear a word you say
Cause if i had you once
I'm gonna have you twice
I'm gonna follow my heart instead of good advice
Hey no matter what you do

Wild horses could not drag me away from you
Wild horses could not drag me away from you


4.Young Lover

One life to live
No time to pretend
No wins no loss
No heroes in the end
No dreams no plans no promises

Young lover
Just turn out the lights

One kiss
One softly whispered yes
No talk oh no, no tears
No hearts to repossess
No names no chains no hostages

Young lover
Just turn out the lights
Slip under the cover
Of the night
Young lover young lover young lover
Everythings all right
Young lover
Just turn out the lights


5.Down With Love

Musta been high
Musta had plenty
If she had one
(don't know) mighta had twenty
Flat on my back
With the wind out of my sail
My friends all say
I look a little skinny and pale
Caught a nasty little bug
One thing sure there ain't no cure
When you're down with love

Enough to make a grown man cry
Or make a mule comply (comin' down with love)
Enough to make a soul man straight
Or make a wildcat domesticate

My head's too hot
My nose a little runny
My family doctor
Stuck me twice and stole my money

Mirror mirror on the wall
Let me tell you what i see
Some kind of strung out fool
Looking back at me
I need a miracle drug
Cause one thing sure there ain't no cure
When you're down with love

Enough to make a grown man cry
Or make a mule comply (comin' down with love)
Enough to make a soul man straight
Or make a wildcat domesticate

Flat on my back
With the wind out of my sail
My friends all say
I need a miracle drug
Cause one thing sure there ain't no cure
When you're down with love

Enough to make a grown man cry
Or make a mule comply (comin' down with love)
Enough to make a mad dog tame
And give a man a good name
One thing's sure there ain't no cure
When you're down with love


6.Persona Non Grata

Now the cry of the toucan for your man is history
Welcome to heaven the land of the rich and the free
The water's so clean you can fill your canteen with it cold
Please hand me your locket and i promise you pockets of gold
No soldiers to knock on your door
Now what can a man ask for more

Persona non grata!
Just lay your money down
Persona non grata!
On your knees and kiss the ground

I know all the right people we will make you legal in a flash
I won't take no for an answer no credit no checks just cash
Well it may seem like a lot but i'm really not in it for greed
As god as my witness i have a family and mistress to feed
What price can you put on a dream
Your fortune lies across the stream

Persona non grata!
Just lay your money down
Persona non grata!
On your knees and kiss the ground
Persona non grata!
Persona non grata!

No soldiers to knock on your door
Now what can a man ask for man

Persona non grata!
Just lay your money down
Persona non grata!
On your knees and kiss the ground
Persona non grata!
Persona non grata!
Lay your money down
Lay your money down
Persona non grata!
Persona non grata!


7.Something Tells Me

Tonight i watch you in your sleep
Wondering what dark secrets you keep
Away from me
A careless word falls from your lips
A time and place that somehow slips
From a memory
I feel my way through darkness
But i trust in where your heart is

Cause each time i close my eyes
I can see better
I dream that we share our lives
Now and forever
Call it faith or just a feeling
Something tells me to believe in you

I feel you near but you're not there
And i feel quiet despair
Of what i might do
I hear a voice inside of me
That cries through the uncertainty
That i feel for you
There are no answers
But i'll take my chances

Cause each time i close my eyes
I can see better
I dream that we share our lives
Now and forever
Call it faith or just a feeling
Something tells me to believe in you
Something tells me (i believe in you)
Something tells me (you know i believe in you)

Everytime i close my eyes
Oh you know i believe in you
Something tells me


8.Shape Me Like A Man

Spark my body into existence
Breath your life into me
Fill these eyes with temptation
Work your mystery
Make me in the image you desire
Raise me up from the earth
Let me be your creation
Women, give me birth

Take me in your hands
And shape me like a man
Shape me like a man
Put this broken body in motion
With a strong and natural drive
Fill my flesh with sensation
Women let me know i'm alive

Take me in your hands
And shape me like a man
Shape me like a man
Like a man
Shape me like a man
Like a man
Shape me like a man
Like a man
Take me in your hands
And shape me like a man
Like a man
Shape me like a man
Like a man
Like a man
Shape me like a man
Like a man
Shape me like a man
Make me like a man


9.King For A Day

Blinded by the magenta spotlight
Stands a disposable commodity
Don't a high price ticket make a star shine so bright
A taste of immortality
And the critics tey call you the new boy wonder
And you know just how to make a young girl cry
The more you feed them the more they hunger
As you watch the money multiply

How does it feel to be?
How does it feel to be?
King ... for a day

You got the whole damn world spinning 'round your middle finger
Hey! shoot a little skeet with the president
And your mother loves you more for every dollar you bring her
And yor latest wife is worth every cent

How does it feel to be?
How does it feel to be?
King ... for a day

Blinded by the magenta spotlight
Stands a manufactured fantasy
Don't a high price ticket make a star
Shine so bright
And the people love you endlessly

How does it feel to be?
How does it feel to be?
King ... for a day
How does it feel to be?
How does it feel to be ... king
