Tough It Out - 1989 (Letras)

Tough It Out - 1989



Tough It Out
(Overland/Overland/Harms)

You've been sleeping on a bed of roses
Eatin' with a silver spoon
Lookin' down from your ivory tower
You thought the blood in your veins was blue
Oh yeah
Hey welcome to the real world baby
Get ready for a big surprise
Throw away those rose-coloured glasses
Girl you better open your eyes

We all know only the strong survive
You gotta be tough just to stay alive
There's always something new you can cry about
Stand up for yourself you gotta tough it out

Tough it out
They're out to get you, trying to wear you down
Tough it out
You need a friend, there's never anyone around
When your back's against the wall
You gotta tough it out
Tough it out
They'll steal your thunder, try to kill your pride
Tough it out
You need some sanctuary, some place to hide
When your back's against the wall
You gotta tough it out

Life is there for the takin'
You gotta choose the game that you play
You gotta fight for what you believe in
'Cos where there's a will there's a way

We all know only the strong survive
You gotta be tough just to stay alive
There's always something new you can cry about
Stand up for yourself you gotta tough it out

Tough it out
They're out to get you, trying to wear you down
Tough it out
You need a friend, there's never anyone around
When your back's against the wall
You gotta tough it out
Tough it out
They'll steal your thunder, gonna kill your pride
Tough it out
You need some sanctuary, some place to hide
When your back's against the wall
You gotta tough it out

When your back's against the wall
You gotta be strong, you gotta stand tall
Fight fire with fire
Well there's always something new you can cry
about
Stand up for yourself you gotta tough it out

Tough it out
They're out to get you, trying to wear you down
Tough it out
You need a friend, there's never anyone around
When your back's against the wall
You gotta tough it out
Tough it out
They'll steal your thunder, gonna kill your pride
Tough it out
You need some sanctuary, some place to hide
When your back's against the wall
Tough it out

Sleeping on a bed of roses
Tough it out
Eatin' with a silver spoon
Looking down from your ivory tower
You thought the blood in your veins was blue

Tough it out
Life is there for the takin'
Tough it out
Just a game that you play
You gotta fight for what you believe in
Tough it out
They're out to get you, trying to wear you down
Tough it out
You need a friend, there's never anyone around
When your back's against the wall
You gotta tough it out
Oh yeah



Don't Stop
(Goldsworthy/Jupp/Digital)

The heat is on
And the talkin's done
There's only one thing on your mind
Like a hurricane
You can never tame
Showing all the danger signs

Lady, lady
Use me up and leave me for dead
Lady, lady
I can't get you out of my head

Don't stop, don't stop
'Cos I'm lovin' every minute of it
Don't stop, don't stop
I can't get enough of it
Don't stop, don't stop
'Cos I'm lovin' every minute

You were dressed to kill
Born to thrill
And when I hear your body talk
I start to shake
But make no mistake
I'll be coming back for more
Yes I will

Lady, lady
Use me up and leave me for dead
Lady, lady
I can't get you out of my head

Don't stop, don't stop
I'm lovin' every minute of it
Don't stop, don't stop
I can't get enough of it
Don't stop, don't stop
Oh I'm lovin' every minute
Lovin' every minute

Don't stop, don't stop
'Cos I'm lovin' every minute of it
Don't stop, don't stop
I'm lovin' every minute of it
Lovin' every minute
Don't stop, don't stop
I can't get enough of it
Don't stop, don't stop
'Cos I'm lovin' every minute
Don't stop, don't stop
I can't get enough of your love
Don't stop, don't stop
Oh I'm lovin' every minute
Lovin' every minute



Bad Luck
(Overland/Overland/Child)

There's a cry from the street
In the dead of night
A cold empty feeling
Losing the fight
You give till it hurts
You don't know why
In the name of love
You kiss your heart goodbye

All my life
I've been waiting for this time to come
It's been a long hard fight
'Cos my heart's been under the gun

I've had bad luck finding a lover
Bad luck keeping the love I found
Bad luck over and over
But tonight your eyes say
You're gonna turn my luck around

When it comes to love
I heard you wrote the book
Broke all the rules
That's the chance I took
Your body's talking
I hear what you say
Am I the loser
In this game we play

All my life
I've been waiting for this time to come
It's been a long hard fight
'Cos my heart's been under the gun

I've had bad luck finding a lover
Bad luck keeping the love I found
Bad luck over and over
But tonight your eyes say
You're gonna turn my luck around
I've had nothing but bad luck
It just follows me around
All my life

All my life
I've been waiting for this time to come
It's been a long hard fight
'Cos my heart's been under the gun

I've had bad luck finding a lover
Bad luck keeping the love I found
Bad luck over and over
I've had bad luck, just a little too much
Bad luck finding a lover
Bad luck keeping the love I found
Keeping the love
Bad luck over and over
Baby you can kiss your heart goodbye
Bad luck finding a lover
Bad luck too much
Bad luck over and over
Baby I can see it in your eyes



Someday
(Randall/Randall/Sciuto)

We play a game of touch and go
Your door is open but your heart is closed
I heal your hurts and pay the price
You walk away, you don't think twice

Maybe I'm just a fool
Who answers when you call
Baby who else will shelter you
When the rain begins to fall

Someday you'll come running to me
When you know it's a prison being free
Someday you'll stop chasing your dreams
Someday you'll come running

Too much of you I live without
Our bodies speak but not our mouths
I can see his shadow in your eyes
But I don't ask where you've been tonight

I always pick up the pieces
Every time you fall apart
Baby you know that I keep tripping
On the pieces of my heart

Someday you'll come running to me
When you know it's a prison being free
Someday you'll stop chasing your dreams
Someday you'll come running

When the wind blows colder
No one to care, no one to hold you
Love's not a road of no returning
Just look around
The fire's still burning

Someday
Someday you'll come running
Someday
Chasing your dreams
The fire is burning

Someday you'll come running to me
When you know it's a prison being free
Someday you'll stop chasing your dreams
Someday you'll come running
Someday you'll come running to me
When you know it's a prison being free
Someday you'll stop chasing your dreams
Someday you'll come running
Someday you'll come running to me
Someday oh you're gonna need me
Someday



Everytime I Think Of You
(Mullen/Cesario/Jones)

Move a little closer....

Time stands still
My heart beats alone tonight
I wonder how can we bridge this space
Rebuild all our dreams
Try to reach out across the sky
We'll meet in the stars tonight

Why do we choose to be lonely
Why do we choose to be sad

Everytime I think of you
I keep thinking there's a place for us again
Everytime I think of you
Why can't we reach out
And touch each other

Lovers walk
Under the stars tonight
Why don't we step over time and space
Fulfil every dream
We can walk out across the sky
We'll sleep in the stars tonight

Why do we choose to be lonely
Why do we choose to be sad
I wonder why do we do it

Everytime I think of you
I keep hoping there's a place for us again
Everytime I think of you
Why can't we reach out
And touch each other

Everytime I think of you
I keep hoping there's a place for us again
Everytime I think of you
Why can't we reach out
And touch each other
Oh try a little harder
Ooh lookin' for another world
Come a little closer
C'mon and get closer and closer

Everytime I think of you
I keep hoping there's a place for us again
Everytime I think of you
Why can't we reach out
Why can't we reach out

Everytime I think of you
I keep hoping there's a place for us again
Everytime I think of you
Why can't we reach out
And touch each other

Everytime I think of you
I keep hoping there's a place for us again
Everytime I think of you
Why can't we reach out
Why can't we reach out
Everytime I think of you
Everytime
Oh yeah
Everytime I think of you
Everytime I think of you

Everytime I think of you
Everytime



Burning My Heart Down

(Overland/Overland/Child)

You're burning my heart...

Hot legs, red lips, you turn on the night
You've got the kind of look to make my body ignite
When you turn up the heat
My blood it still runs cold
I've got this funny feeling that I sold my soul

When you're playin' with fire
Someone's gonna get hurt

You're burning my heart down
To the ground, to the ground
The flames start getting higher
When you come around
You're burning my heart down

Too much, too soon, and then it's too late
One look at you and it's sealed my fate
Every time we touch
It's giving off a spark
You've got me so hot girl you're burning down my heart

When you're playin' with fire
Someone's gonna get hurt

'Cos you're burning my heart down
To the ground
The flames start getting higher
When you come around
You're burning my heart down
You're burning it to the ground
You can't put out the fire
With the tears of a clown
You're burning my heart down

You're burning my heart down
Oh to the ground, to the ground
You're burning my heart down
Yeah to the ground, ground, ground
You're burning my heart down
Oh to the ground, to the ground
The flames start getting higher
When you come around
You're burning my heart down
You're burning it to the ground
To the ground
You can't put out the fire
With the tears of a clown
Tears of a clown
You're burning my heart down



The Dream That Died
(Overland/Overland)

Well I've been looking back
On all the things we had
I was playing games
I thought you understood
You never let it show
You didn't give a sign
You just closed the door
I never thought you would

Every time I turn out the light
You're here beside me
It's not me you're with tonight
Tell me why

I saw the dream that died
I watched it slip away
And now the dream has died
There's nothing left to say
Nothing left to say

It didn't take too long
You never were that strong
But then I know
You never liked to be alone

Every time you turn out the light
Do you think of me
Even though you're with him tonight
Tell me why

I saw the dream that died
I watched it slip away
And now the dream has died
There's nothing left to say
I saw the dream that died
You know we just ran out of time
And now the dream that died
Is his instead of mine

I saw the dream that died
I watched it slip away
And now the dream has died
There's nothing left to say
I saw the dream that died
We just ran out of time
And now the dream that died
Is his instead of mine

Never let it slip away

I saw the, I saw the, I saw the dream that died
I saw the, I saw the, I saw the dream that died
I saw the, I let it slip away,
I saw the dream that died



Obsession
(Goldsworthy/Jupp/Digital)

Driven by passion
And animal lust
There's a devil inside me
You never can trust
Am I Jekyll or Hyde
Oh you can't be sure
'Cos baby I got the fever
You got the cure

That's why I'm standing in the shadows
In the heat of the night
Waiting for a love bite

'Cos I can't give it up
It's an obsession
My life's on the line
I'm in need of a love injection
Can't give it up
It's an obsession
I'm in a cold, cold sweat
All I need is your attention

Hot with desire
And hungry for love
There's a devil inside me
Just can't get enough
A physical attraction
A habit I just can't kick
'Cos I know satisfaction's guaranteed
I got to get my fix

That's why I'm standing in the shadows
In the heat of the night
Waiting for a love bite

'Cos I can't give it up
It's an obsession
My life's on the line
I'm in need of a love injection
Can't give it up
It's an obsession
I'm in a cold, cold sweat
All I need is your attention

I'm gonna need a shot
Before the night is through
I can feel the hunger
I'm gonna take a piece of you

Can't give it up
Can't give it up

Can't give it up
It's an obsession
My life's on the line
I'm in need of a love injection
Can't give it up
It's an obsession
I'm in a cold, cold sweat
All I need is your attention
Can't give it up, can't give it up
It's an obsession



Can You Hear Me Calling?
(Overland/Overland)

Saw you again today
We passed on the street
Why do I feel this way
Each time that we meet
I'm going crazy
Going out of my mind

It's just my masquerade
Another game I play
Imagination's got me living a lie

Whoa, whoa, can you hear me calling
Just a lonely a voice crying out to you
Whoa, whoa, can you hear me calling
A desperate heart reaching out for you
Hear me callin'

My friends are talkin'
All saying the same
Loving a stranger
Is a dangerous game
Infatuation, ain't easy to hide
I need to see this through
Just a chance to talk to you
Convince myself that I'm not wasting my time

Whoa, whoa, can you hear me calling
Just a lonely a voice crying out to you
Whoa, whoa, can you hear me calling
A desperate heart reaching out for you

This strange obsession's
Like a thorn in my side
Watching and waiting
And just biding my time

Whoa, whoa, can you hear me calling
Just a lonely a voice crying out to you
Whoa, whoa, can you hear me calling
A desperate heart reaching out for you
Whoa, whoa, can you hear me calling
Can you hear me
Whoa, whoa, can you hear me calling
Calling out to you
Whoa, whoa, can you hear me calling
Just a lonely a voice crying out to you
Whoa, whoa, can you hear me calling
Reaching out for you
Can you hear me
Can you hear me calling
Hear me calling
Calling out tonight



Does It Feel Like Love?

(Overland/Overland)

Always the wild one
From the wrong side of town
Forever on the run
Nothin' to tie you down
Never needed anybody
To hold on to
So maybe it's just being alone
That's getting through to you

Tell me how does it feel
Is it burning you up inside
Is it history, the way you used to be
Have you given up the fight

Does it feel like love
Tearing at your heart
Does it feel like love
That's tearing you apart
Does it feel like love
Tearing at your heart
Does it feel like love

Did you blame it on the night
Were you off your guard
Did it feel alright
Or did it come real hard
Just a lonely heart
Lovin' on the run
Did it open up your eyes to find
You're not the only one

Tell me how does it feel
Now you're on the other side
Is it a mystery, the way you used to be
What were you trying to hide

Does it feel like love
Tearing at your heart
Does it feel like love
That's tearing you apart
Does it feel like love
Tearing at your heart
Does it feel like love

Just a one night stand
Not a major love affair
You had nothing planned
Never thought you'd find someone to care

Does it feel like love
Tearing at your heart
Does it feel like love
That's tearing you apart
Does it feel like love
Tearing at your heart
Does it feel like love



Feels So Good

(Overland/Overland)

We've always gone our separate ways
Playing all those power games
This is just a physical thing
So don't talk about love, don't talk about love

We never have too much to say
No common ground, no state of play
No-one's making any plans for the future
Don't talk about love, don't talk about love
We could walk away
But where would we go
So what's keeping us here
I think we both know

That it feels so good
When we make love
That fire in your eyes
Takes me by surprise
And it feels so good
Oh when we make love
When we make love baby

Why try to read between the lines
You won't find no vital signs
'Cos it doesn't cut any deeper
Don't talk about love, don't talk about love
I think we know just where we stand
Love and hate walk hand in hand
When you know it's just a physical thing
You don't talk about love, don't talk about love

We could try a little harder
Give a little bit more
But I think we've found
Just what we're looking for

'Cos it feels so good
When we make love
That fire in your eyes
Takes me by surprise
Feels so good
Oh when we make love
Oh when we make love

We could walk away
But where would we go
So what's keeping us here
I think we both know

That it feels so good
Oh when we make love
That fire in your eyes
Takes me by surprise
Feels so good
Oh when we make love
That fire in your eyes
Takes me by surprise
Feels so good
When we make love
There's a fire in your eyes
Takes me by surprise
And it feels so good

Indiscreet - 1986 (Letras)

Indiscreet - 1986


That Girl
(Goldsworthy/Jupp/Barnett)


When the words she says turn out lies
And desperation fills your eyes
Hold her in your arms and don't let go
Can you taste defeat, will you lose the game
Fight till you win, don't give in
Hold her in your arms and tell her so

That girl
Always takes the best of you
That girl
Will you ever let her go

When you hear her calling out your name
Thinks about you, cries without you
Hold her in your arms and don't let go
You've tried so many times before
Smell the fear as she closed the door
Just to hold her in your arms once more

That girl
Always takes the best of you
That girl
Will you ever let her go
That girl
Can't you see she's using you
That girl
Will you ever let her go

When the words she says turn out lies
Desperation fills your eyes
Hold her in your arms and don't let go

That girl
Always takes the best of you
That girl
Will you ever let her go
That girl
Don't you know she's gonna break your heart
That girl

That girl, that girl
That girl, that girl
Don't let her go
That girl



Other Side of Midnight

(Goldsworthy/Jupp)

She dries her eyes as she reaches for his photograph
Takes one last look as she tears it into two
Just sixteen she knows her heart's been broken
Tries to hide behind a smile that tells you she's no fool
I know you're crying inside
But there's no place to hide

Don't you know it gets lonely
On the other side of midnight
You're not the only one
On the other side of midnight
It's so lonely, lonely
On the other side of midnight
You put your heart on the line
Baby tonight

She's read every glossy colour covered magazine
How boy meets girl they kiss and fall in love
Didn't know that she'd be flirting with disaster
Now she knows just what it's like to take a chance on love
I know you're crying inside
But there's no place to hide

Don't you know it gets lonely
On the other side of midnight
You're not the only one
On the other side of midnight
Little girl it gets lonely, lonely
On the other side of midnight
You put your heart on the line
Baby tonight

You know it gets so lonely on the other side
You're gonna lose your heart
On the other side tonight

Little girl it gets lonely
On the other side of midnight
You're not the only one
On the other side of midnight
Don't you know it gets lonely, lonely
On the other side of midnight
Little girl you put your heart on the line
On the other side of midnight



Love Lies Dying

(Goldsworthy/Overland/Jupp/Overland/Digital)

Call on me
When you need someone to rely on
If you need a shoulder to cry on
Call on me
Can't you see
It's time to face the facts
It's no use looking back, so let it be
And it's breaking my heart
Tearing me apart
If I could find a way
But what can you say

When your love lies dying
And the thrill has gone
We had nowhere left to turn
We can't keep holding on
When your love lies dying
And the thrill has gone
It's all over save the crying
I'm not the only one

Yesterday
The fire still burned high
Now it's the flame that makes you cry
That was yesterday
Who's to say
Things are better left unsaid
Or would you rather be misled
Only you can say
And it's breaking my heart
Tearing me apart
If I could find a way
But what can you say

When your love lies dying
And the thrill has gone
We've got nowhere left to turn
We can't keep holding on
When your love lies dying
And the thrill has gone
It's all over save the crying
I'm not the only one
When your love lies dying

We've had our share of pain
It's time to end this game
I'll be the one, I'll take the blame

If I could find a way
But what can you say

When your love lies dying
And the thrill has gone
We had nowhere left to turn
We can't keep holding on
When your love lies dying
And the thrill has gone
It's all over save the crying
I'm not the only one
I'm not the only one

Love lies dying
And the thrill has gone
Baby won't you call on me
I'll be there, I'll be there, I'll be there
Love lies dying
And the thrill has gone

When your love lies dying
And the thrill has gone



I Belong to the Night

(Overland/Overland)

There's something in the air tonight
Something hiding deep in the dark
I can feel it, I can taste it
And it's giving off a spark
I'm drawn to the neon
Like the creatures drawn to the flame
Electricity burns inside of me
Seems like I'm caught in the game
Faces in the dark are watching me
They don't bother me
'Cos they can see

I belong to the night
I belong to the night
Come alive in the twilight zone
And I long for the night
'Cos the night was made for love
The night belongs to love

Every face has a story to tell
Their eyes hide the secrets they keep
It's survival of the strongest
Lost souls playing hide and seek
Street corner love for sale
A stranger with time to kill
Strictly business, no emotions
Goodbye and thanks for the thrill
Lying there I search for reasons why
Then I tell myself
Why try to justify

I belong to the night
I belong to the night
Come alive in the twilight zone
And I long for the night
'Cos the night was made for love
The night belongs to love
Oh baby

And the night belongs to love

I belong to the night
I belong to the night
Come alive in the twilight zone
And I long for the night
We belong to the night
We belong
And I long for the night
'Cos the night was made for love
The night belongs to love



American Girls

(Overland/Overland)

Heard the song about those California girls
I knew every line
That was me back in '65
One thing on my mind
I'm older, can see wiser now
This passion's grown with time
Even now in the light of experience
Nothing's ever gonna change my mind

Don't know what it is makes me feel this way
I don't really care
Give me another Miss America
There's nothing can compare
With those American girls
Tearing at my heart
All American girls
Where do I start
I love American girls
They're always on my mind
Gimme an American girl
All of the time
I'm going coast to coast
East to West
I'm never gonna settle for the best of the rest
Gimme an American girl

Got my ticket now I'm on my way
Time to make my move
Destination USA
I'm gonna find a place in that New York groove
Blind faith won't let me down
It's taking me all the way
The city lights are getting closer now
They're telling me to stay
With those American girls
Tearing at my heart
All American girls
Where do I start
I love American girls
They're always on my mind
Gimme an American girl
All of the time
I'm going coast to coast
East to West
I'm never gonna settle for the best of the rest

American girls
All those American girls
Tearing at my heart
All American girls
Where do I start
I love American girls
They're always on my mind
Gimme an American girl
All of the time



Hot Wired
(Goldsworthy)

She turns her head to make a play
You see her smile light up her face
You try to catch the moment
But in a flash she's gone
Can't describe the feeling
That keeps you holding on
Your mind is racing
Pulse in the red
Your body's aching
Your heart, it rules your head
And your soul's on fire
Resistance low
Your heart's hot wired
And ready to explode

She got me, hot wired
With just one look, hot wired
That was all it took
Hot wired
I'll never kill the flame
Hot wired
I'm never gonna be the same again
I'll never be the same babe

Well she stood you up and she made you pay
You turn your head as you walk away
And you know to her
It's just another game
Your heart's hot wired
And you know she's to blame

She got me, hot wired
With just one look, hot wired
That was all it took
Hot wired
I'll never kill the flame
Hot wired
I'm never gonna be the same

I try to close my eyes
And hide this burning deep inside of my heart
No I'll never kill the flame
No matter how I try
I just can't find a reason why
She's gone
Oh she's gone

She got me, hot wired
With just one look, hot wired
That was all it took
Hot wired
I'll never kill the flame
Hot wired
I'll never be the same again
Hot wired



Face To Face
(Overland/Overland/Jupp)

There's a face at the window
There's a shadow on the blind
A stranger's voice on the telephone
And it ain't no friend of mine
Two glasses on the table
And a half smoked cigarette
Knowing smiles, no explanations
Like all the things that you forget
And there's only one way to work it out baby

Face to face
Heart to heart
Tell me what it really means to you
Face to face
Heart to heart
Is there anything left that we can do
We got to get this thing
Get this thing in the open, face to face
Face to face

You know that you got this whole town talking
And it seems the joke's on me
And they say you're always the last to know
How did they hide their sympathy
And there's only one way to work it out baby

Face to face
Heart to heart
Well tell me what it really means to you
Face to face
Heart to heart
Is there anything left that we can do
We got to get this thing
Get this thing in the open

Face to face
Heart to heart
Tell me what it really means to you
Face to face
Heart to heart
Is there anything left that we can do
Face to face
Heart to heart
We got to work it, work it, work it, work it out
Face to face
Heart to heart



Frozen Heart

(Goldsworthy/Overland/Jupp/Overland/Digital)

You left me with a frozen heart...
Everybody thinks they know the right way
We were just the same
So how did we choose the wrong way
Can you tell me who's to blame
And everybody's saying that you changed me
I won't admit it's true

Telling me
I'm telling you

Things just haven't been the same girl
But I'm dealing with the pain
Everybody says you're not the only one
I couldn't face it all again

They're telling me
I'm telling you

You left me with a frozen heart
Will I ever be the same girl
You left me with a frozen heart
A frozen heart

You could have been a little more discreet girl
But not even love's that blind
Always try to not listen to the things they say
It's getting harder all the time

They're telling me
I'm telling you

You left me with a frozen heart
Will I ever be the same girl
You left me with a frozen heart
Got no more left
No more left to feel girl
You left me with a frozen heart
Oh babe, a frozen heart

I know you're gone
You won't be back
I'm left here with this frozen heart
There's no way out
No place to go
I can't find the strength to carry on
I just can't carry on

You left me with a frozen heart
Will I ever be the same girl
You left me with a frozen heart
You left me with a frozen heart
Left me with a frozen heart
You left me with a frozen heart
And it's never gonna be the same
Never be the same again now baby
You left me with a frozen heart
Got no more left
No more left to give girl
You left me with a frozen heart
Frozen Heart



Heart Of The Matter
(Overland/Overland)

This could be the last time girl
Last time that we will be alone together
And this could be the last time girl
Don't waste my time, it's now or never
You say you're leaving now
Don't get me wrong
I never tried to stop you
But if you leave me now
It's not goodnight
This time we're through

It's been too long your way
Try it my way
No more fooling
It's way overdue

We got to get to the heart of the matter
Heart of the matter
It'll take just one night to put things right
Between me and you
Heart of the matter
Heart of the matter
I think we both know what we should do
Get to the heart of the matter

You got me burning up
I'm ready to explode
This fever inside
It's got a hold on me
It's getting so hard to hide
It's been too long your way
Try it my way
No more fooling
It's way overdue

We got to get to the heart of the matter
Heart of the matter
It'll take just one night to put things right
Between me and you
Heart of the matter
Heart of the matter
I think we both know what we should do

We'll get to the heart of the matter
Heart of the matter
It'll take just one night to put things right
Between me and you
Heart of the matter
Heart of the matter
I think we both know what we should do
Heart of the matter
Heart of the matter
We'll get to the heart
Heart of the matter
Heart of the matter
We'll get to the heart
