The Night Before Like a battle cry the alarm bells shoot like knives And it hits him to the very core You open one eye and you struggle to remind yourself What it is you woke up for. You sink into you bed as you realize your dread And you start to sweat You had a few to drink and you think you’ve done some things That you might regret on the night before You lie there very still and phone ring brings a chill It’s a number that you don’t recall You read the message twice It says ‘thank you for last night…you were truly wonderful You sink into you bed as you realize your dread And you start to sweat You had a few to drink and you think you’ve done some things That you might regret on the night before Oooore ooooore Oooore ooooore Oooore ooooore Ooooore Oooore ooooore On the night before There’s an image coming through of a woman dressed in blue You can see her face but not her name In the mirror bold and bright in her red lipstick handwriting She signed it with kiss ‘Love Jane’ You sink into you bed pull the covers on your head And you really sweat You had a few to drink and you think you’ve done some things That you might regret on the night before You had a few to drink and you think you’ve done some things That you might regret on the night before You had a few to drink and you think you’ve done some things That you might regret on -the night before.

Davy Jones' Lock in You won’t be coming home tonight You worked up a heavy appetite You won’t be satisfied until this feeling dies Nothing else will do Until it’s got a hold over you You’re like a train that’s going to crash Temptation is getting all too much The lights are turning red But there’s something in your head A switch to overload The lights are on but nobody is home His ship has run aground Compass madly spinning round Captain nowhere to be found He’s lost in heavy seas Showers mainly good at first Driven by a raging thirst He drank until the clouds had burst their seams. Hands slowly ticking on the clock Here comes a little aftershock You had a lot of fun But your race has all been run You find a place to hide He won’t be seen again for quite some time His ship has run aground Compass madly spinning round Captain nowhere to be found He’s lost in heavy seas Showers mainly good at first Driven by a raging thirst He drank until the clouds had burst their seams. Davy Jone’s Lock in Nobody could stop him Sinking to the bottom of the sea.

In Your Arms 03:20
In Your Arms I’ve hardly known you but you’ve grown familiar to me This feeling grows with every word we speak How much we’ve told each other, and the secrets we still keep Two different worlds, in the middle we both meet I let my mind run wild remember what it’s like To be in your arms tonight. And then I picture the place in your loving embrace In your arms tonight I hear frustration, but there’s little we can do This distance makes it harder But we’ll just keep on pushing through If I’m not mistaken, we’re both singing to the same tune Lets not be hasty, time will be our proof. I let my mind run wild remember what it’s like to be, in your arms tonight. And then I picture the place in your loving embrace In your arms tonight You made a promise to yourself And now you’re promise is to someone else A hand to hold A story yet to unfold. I let my mind run wild remember what it’s like To be, in your arms tonight. And then I picture the place in your loving embrace In your arms tonight

Bewitched and Bewildered Sure it’s no wonder that she has me under her spell And the spell that she’s cast, well if it’s gonna last, time will tell She stirs up emotion, dreaming up potions and charms She’ll leave you dumb-founded completely spellbound in her arms You’re left in a trance from a devilish glance of her eye She’ll work through your veins and drives insane with her smile. The magic she holds at her fingers, controlling my thoughts She spins a web with the words that she says and I’m caught. She flies through my mind like the wind in the night And she cooks up a storm when she looks in your eyes And she leaves me bewitched and bewildered every time Clouded in mystery, she’s an uncovered history to find She speaks in hushed tones and knows how to read people’s minds You could dine on her beauty, a banquet to truly enjoy But when she starts to bubble you know your in trouble oh boy! She flies through my mind like the wind in the night And she cooks up a storm when she looks in your eyes And she leaves me bewitched and bewildered every time Now that I’m under her spell Only time will tell Is this heaven or hell? She flies through my mind like the wind in the night And she cooks up a storm when she looks in your eyes And she leaves me bewitched and bewildered every time Now that I’m under her spell Only time will tell
