1,2,1,2,3 Well I guess I should confess that I am starting to get old All the latest music fads all passed me by and left me cold All the kids are talking slang I won’t pretend to understand All my friends are getting married, mortgages and pension plans And it’s obvious my angry adolescent days are done And I’m happy and I’m settled in the person I’ve become But that doesn’t mean I’m settled up and sitting out the game Time may change a lot but some things may stay the same And I won’t sit down And I won’t shut up And most of all I will not grow up And I won’t sit down And I won’t shut up And most of all I yeah I won’t grow up ---

We’ve still got the fuel and we still have the fire So me and you, Jay, let’s never retire Let’s keep on making mistakes till we’re done It won’t last so be bold I’m gonna live fast and I’m gonna die old Gonna end my days in a house with high windows On the quiet shores in the South-West So you sort the tunes and I’ll bring the beers And on my seventieth birthday I’ll see you right here And together we will watch the sunset ---

The night has a thousand eyes But he moves in only places where the eyes can never be The night tells a thousand lies And when you wake up in the morning, were you dreaming Screaming, tryin’ to hide your burnin’ heart Before somebody cuts it all away Sunset superman Sunset superman Sunset superman Somebody start the game And the dark will just get louder as it shouts away the light A shadow without a name But when he wakes up in the morning he just won’t know Was he a hero, trying to hide his burning heart Before somebody cuts it all away Sunset superman Sunset superman Sunset superman Anybody can, sunset superman ---

Would you like to sit and talk to me About the way things change so suddenly When your senses come and the feeling goes Can you remember feeling much too close Stop your hands from shaking – look at me! Are your senses racing endlessly? Tracing past impressions? So were mine. Have you ever been used or will this be the first time? It’s come so clear to me Light fuse and get away No gain, no pain It’s a fatal game and the true lose everything I can see what trust and loyalty have done for me Falling miles from the mark With a thirst for revenge and a dangerous heart ---

Quest for truth never ceases As wisdom brutally teaches Pacing back and forth again, and again Just searching for an end Panic wave chaos showers Sickening stench of man gone sour Laughing at us in our face, we’re disgraced And then we’re all erased Persevere - Holding out - Make it end! Giving in - Giving up - Let it end! Why is it infinite? The evil that revolves around our universe The always changing, never changing Why is it infinite? The evil that revolves around our universe The always changing, never changing Nothing changes! ---

I feel the depth of your love And devotion My heart like the bird That dives into this ocean blue Lanes that have brought me here Framed in season flowers Lined in summer green Music in every sound Light beyond each cloud Hope in every dream Songs like a healing breeze Every breath inhale And the goodness feel Rise from the bird above From the flower below In a song of love Light shining through the grey Turns the water green Shades of lilac blue Music in every sound Light beyond each cloud Hope in every dream Songs like a healing breeze Every breath inhale And the goodness feel Rise from the bird above From the flower below In a song of love Music in every sound Light beyond each cloud Hope in every dream ---

Breathe, breathe in the air. Don’t be afraid to care. Leave but don’t leave me. Look around and choose your own ground. Long you live and high you fly And smiles you’ll give and tears you’ll cry And all you touch and all you see Is all your life will ever be. ---

It doesn’t hurt me. Do you want to feel how it feels? Do you want to know that it doesn’t hurt me? Do you want to hear about the deal that I’m making? You, it’s you and me. And if I only could, I’d make a deal with God, And I’d get him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, Be running up that building. If I only could, oh… You don’t want to hurt me, But see how deep the bullet lies. Unaware I’m tearing you asunder. Ooh, there is thunder in our hearts. Is there so much hate for the ones we love? Tell me, we both matter, don’t we? You, it’s you and me. It’s you and me won’t be unhappy. And if I only could, I’d make a deal with God, And I’d get him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, Be running up that building, Say, if I only could, oh… ---

Once I used to believe I was such a great romancer. Then I came home to a woman that I could not recognize. When I pressed her for a reason, She refused to even answer. It was then I felt The Stranger kick me right between the eyes. Well, we all fall in love But we disregard the danger Though we share so many secrets There are some we never tell Why were you so surprised that you never saw The Stranger Did you ever let your lover see The Stranger in yourself. Don’t be afraid to try again. Everyone goes south every now and then. You’ve done it. Why can’t someone else? You should know by now. You’ve been there yourself. You may never understand how The Stranger is inspired. But he isn’t always evil and he is not always wrong. Though you drown in good intentions, You will never quench the fire. You’ll give in to your desire when The Stranger comes along.
