1.Stay On These Roads
Written:Morten Harket/Magne Furuholmen/Pal Waaktaar
The cold has a voice
It talks to me
Stillborn, by choice
It airs no need
To hold
Old man feels the cold...
Oh baby don't
'cause I've been told
Stay on these roads
We shall meet, I know
Stay on... my love
We shall meet, I know
I know
Where join should reign
These skies restrain
'Shadow your love...'
The voice trails off again
Old man feels the cold
Oh baby don't
'cause I've been told
Stay on these roads
We shall meet, I know
Stay on... my love
You feel so weak, be strong
Stay on, stay on
We shall meet, I know
I know
2.The Blood That Moves The Body
Lyrics:Pal Waaktaar
Music:Pal Waaktaar
It's the way we feel
Tonight
As if it's all unreal
All right
My love, won't you come back to
Our love, you know I'll react to
The blood that moves my body
Now covers the ground
The blood that moves the body
The blood that moves the body
There's nowhere to go
Tonight
Lend some warmth to our cold
And lonely lives
Red stains on 'Eyes Of A Blue Dog'
My pains fade as the interiors fog
the blood that moves my body
Now colours the ground
The blood that moves the body
The blood that moves the body
Not long ago
It hurt us so
A tremble through our lives
The love and care...
The way we were
Lost its way at nights
It's the way we feel
Tonight
Lend some warmth to our cold
And lonely lives
My love, won't you come back to
Our love, you know we'll react to
The blood that moved our bodies
Now covers the ground...
Now covers the ground
The blood that moves the body
The blood that moves the body
3.Touchy!
Written:Morten Harket/Magne Furuholmen/Pal Waaktaar
Donna found us in her slow and dreamy way
I can't hear a word the waiter says
She's looking older now... the color of her hair
She walks into the room too pleased to find me there
Me I'm touchy
Touchy you
Me I'm touchy
And you know what to do
Me I'm touchy
Touchy, touchy you
Me I'm touchy and you know what to do
Both of us together in a room by ourselves
I sneeze to look around, but there's no escape
What can I do, what can I say
She's waiting for this moment to explain itself
Me I'm touchy
Touchy you
Me I'm touchy
And you know what to do
Me I'm touchy
Touchy, touchy you
Touching love is the best I can do
Hey, this time you've gone too far
You know how touchy we are
Donna found me in her slow and dreamy way
Now she reads me what the papers say
The way she laughs at what I do
I'm waiting for this moment to explain itself through
Me I'm touchy...
4.This Alone Is Love
Written:Magne Furuholmen/Pal Waaktaar
This alone is love
No small thing
This alone is love
That my love brings
And all of us
who are traveling by trap-doors
Our souls are a myriad of wars
And I'm losing everyone
It will make my last breath pass out at dawn
It will make my body dissolve out in the blue
Oh baby, what can we do
5.Hurry Home
Written:Magne Furuholmen/Pal Waaktaar
Hurry home
Freight train running
I've been gone
Too long, honey
Why did I waste away
The only good thing left to save me
Hurry home
Freight train running
She's alone
Got no money
(She's alone... she got no money
I'm coming home, I've done my running)
I'm coming home
No more running
Why now should I deny
The only true thing left inside me
Hurry home
No more running
I'm doing right
For once in my life
(He's doing right!)
No more running...
(Rolling countries... fields unfolding
I swear the winds are calling)
So I hurry home
No more running
She's all alone
Got no money
(She's alone... she got no money
Coming home, I've done my running)
Why should I go and hide
the only true thing left inside me
Hurry home
Freight train running
6.The Living Daylights
Lyrics:John Barry/Pal Waaktaar
Music:John Barry/Pal Waaktaar
Hey driver, where're we going
I swear my nerves are showing
Set your hopes up way too high
The living's in the way we die
Comes the morning and the headlights fade away
Hundred thousand people... I'm the one they blame
I've been waiting long for one of us to say
Save the darkness, let it never fade away
In the living daylights
All right, hold on tighter now
It's down, down to the wire
Set your hopes way too high
The living's in the way we die
Comes the morning and the headlights fade in rain
Hundred thousand changes... everything's the same
I've been waiting long for one of us to say
Save the darkness, let it never fade away
In the living daylights
Comes the morning and the headlights fade away
Hundred thousand people... I'm the one they frame
In the living daylights
7.There's Never A Forever Thing
Lyrics:Pal Waaktaar
Music:Pal Waaktaar
Dearest...
Dry your eyes now
Don't you cry
It's all right
Lie back
Leave the lights on
It's all right, dear
I'll be here through the night
With you till the first signs of light
Say the word and I'll come tonight
It's all right now
Don't you cry now
Hush...
Wipe your tears away
There's never a forever thing
All through the night
I'll try so hard to be there somehow
With you till the first signs of light
Say the word and I'll come
Tonight
Darling, don't you
Cry
8.Out Of Blue Comes Green
Lyrics:Pal Waaktaar
Music:Pal Waaktaar
Father
My wings are clipped
See the steps that made me trip
Now I'm so lonely
Mother
Time's frozen flame
Seems to linger in the rain
Holding me only
Like a river I'm flowing
And there's no way of knowing
If I'm coming or going
I need something to chain me down
But it don't matter
My eyes have seen...
For better
Out of blue comes green
Mother
I have gone wrong
Work my fingers to the bone
All I've been doing
Father
Proud that I am
To be born into such hands
Your love so renewing
And I know I can lose it
Part of life... you can't choose it
As I touched the horizon
It just felt like I'd die soon
Don't matter
My eyes have seen
For better
Out of blue comes green
9.You Are The One
Written:Magne Furuholmen/Pal Waaktaar
You are the one who has done me in
Guess you knew from the start
I call again, but there's no one in
Don't know where, with whom you've been
But I do
Love you
Anyway you want me to
You are the one... now the state I'm in!
Catching you was so hard
I fought for you, did you let me win!?
You don't even care, you don't care
Where I've been
But I do
Love you
Anyway you want me to
I've done all I can do
All the letters... I've sent through
Put my life in the palms of your hands
Maybe now you can see
That it's got to be me
But if you leave me
I'll understand, yeah
If you leave me, I'll understand
You are the one who has done me in
Guess you knew from the start
I call your friends, but there's no one in
Catching you is so hard
You are the one!
10.You'll End Up Crying
Lyrics:Pal Waaktaar
Music:Pal Waaktaar
You'll end up crying
With your mother's eyes
Pretend you can't see yourself
Could have been better
Could have been worse
You could have been yourself
Brought up in mom's arms
Nowhere to fall
Now you're out climbing
Taking it all
You'll end up crying
With your mother's eyes
Suffer that moment's pain
Could have done better
Could have done worse
Lost in your love for more
Now you're out climbing
And you should know
You'll end up crying
Wherever you may go
Brought up in mom's arms
Nowhere to fall
Now you're out climbing
Climbing to fall
You'll end up crying
with your mother's eyes
Something is lost from the start
Could have been better
Could have been worse
You're going to need me there
