1.Drive Me

I am a bright red stingray, from 1968.

Think i got something here, you will appreciate.

We can go fast or go slow, anyway that you feel.

I can't wait to see your face, when you're behind the wheel.

Don't be nervous, don't be shy.

Why stand still if you can fly.

Chorus

Drive me, drive me. the key is in your hand.

Drive me, drive me. just as far as you can.

I know where you need to go, can't get there without me.

You can't make it all alone, why don't you turn the key.

Don't be nervous, don't be shy.

Why stand still if you can fly.

Chorus

Let's go & tear up the road.

I know the way baby,

Why don't you drive me home.

Chorus


2.Hold On

I don't wanna see you ever sad

And everything that i've got you can have

When it's all too much

You need some human touch

To see that it's really not so bad

Did you call on every saint you know

But still you feel like you're on your own

Can you see through your tears

I will always be here

And you're not out there all alone

Chorus

Hold on,'till you feel a little stronger

Hold on to me

Hold on,everything's gonna be alright

Just hold on to me tonight

Anything that hurts you,hurts me too

I'm not gonna let your world turn blue

Will you take my hand

And feel how close i am

There ain't nothin'i won't do for you

Chorus

I know the world

Can drive you to your knees

But when you need to cry,baby

Cry to me

Chorus


3.I Know The Game

Time to pay the rent baby, gotta try and work harder.

Really goin' nowhere fast, you're not goin' much farther.

Gotta take a break baby, try and make my load lighter.

I'm missin' somethin' that i need, never been much of a fighter.

Well maybe i made, a few mistakes.

But baby you know, they were mine to make.

Chorus

I know the game, but i don't want to play it.

I know the word, but i don't want to say it.

I've got the bill, but i don't want to pay it.

I know the game, but i ain't gonna play it this time.

You watch me like a hawk, baby, i know somethin's gotta give.

Listen to the way you talk, baby, this ain't no way to live.

Everything i don't have, well it all belongs to you.

I'm doin the best that i can, baby what you want me to do.

Chorus

Bridge:

The old ways are dead & gone,

And the door is open wide.

Anything can happen now. you can see me,

Standin' on a thin line.

Chorus


4.Neutral Ground

I heard a shot last night, it woke me up from my sleep.

There's no such thing as friendly fire.

Oh mama, don't turn on the lights,

Oh papa, get away from the window,

You never know which way the angel's comin in.

Chorus

And the water's gonna roll. roll up the dirty streets,

And the wind's gonna blow out the lights.

Rock the world to sleep, i don't wanna be left behind,

And get caught between the lines drawn across this town

Runnin' out of neutral ground.

Somebody's waitin' for my brother,

To them he's just another number.

To me he never did no wrong,

My sister, don't be pulled in.

Don't make the same mistake again,

There's just no way to even up this score.

Chorus

Bridge:

I can't be no judge, i can't be no jury.

I don't even know what's right or wrong.

I stand between the walls,

These walls are bigger than life,

Seems like they'll never get enough.

Chorus


5.No Rhyme, No Reason

This fading light must be playing a trick on me.

How did you walk across the room & change the world i see.

I lost my breath, lost my sight,

And the room began to sway.

I look at you, oh. you leave me nothing to say.

Chorus:

Ain't no rhyme, ain't no reason.

It's just a mystery.

Ain't no rhyme, ain't no reason.

For what you do to me.

This kind of thing was not supposed to happen to me,

All the walls i built up came apart so easily.

Some kind of spell that i can't shake.

Got a hold on me,

Now i don't know if i ever want to be free.

Chorus

Oh i'm falling into the mist,

And i'm face to face with a life of emptiness.

Oh i want to run. but i can't move,

Don't want to give in, but there's nothing i can do.

I lay awake & try to sort out what is true,

I close my eyes. but all i see is you.

I'm like a ghost. i'm like a shadow,

And i can't go home,

You shake the ground. hey. that i'm standing on.

Chorus


6.Perfect World

Now when the night falls,

I won't be there,

To cast a shadow on your wall.

Why do we act this way,

Somehow the light of day,

Makes our troubles seem so small.

We live & die like this,

I dare you to fight for it.

Chorus:

In a perfect world.

Wouldn't be too late to make it right.

In a perfect world.

I'd be holding you so very tight. ahh ah,

In our perfect world tonight.

If you lay down your shield,

I won't hurt you.

Just let me show you how i feel.

Down deep inside my heart,

You know you left your mark.

No one can say that it's not real.

We live & die like this.

I dare you to fight for it this time.

Chorus

Bridge:

The wheel keeps turnin'

And we're burnin' in the flames.

It's not wrong to hold on to love,

And let go of the pain. chorus


7.Release Me

I can still feel your teeth marks in my neck,

Your footprints on my back.

And the gris gris you sprinkled in my bed,

Is starting to make me crack.

I can still hear your twang ringin' in my ear,

Your perfume i still smell.

You brought it way down below the mason-dixon line,

Like your mother, you're a southern bell.

Chorus

I said release me.

But please don't let me know.

Release me,

But please don't let me go.

1st bridge

All my blood's still boiling.

Like a snake, you come coiling,

Ready to strike!

2nd bridge

All my blood's still boiling.

Like a snake, you come coiling.

When the night comes down i get a big black fear,

Like the clouds hanging up above.

I don't want you to possess me but that's how it is,

I ain't nothin' but your slave of love.

Chorus


8.The Comfort Of Strangers

You took the path of least resistence

And i've gone from bad to worse

They say that one man's

Blessing is another one's curse

The sun shines softly on the ruins

As try to find my way

You knew exactly what you were doin'

But left me chattered anyway

Chorus

It just kills me to see you runnin'

To the comfort of strangers

Everyone saw it comin'

Everyone but me

Funny how time keeps on runnin'

Like a river of changes

And it's left me with nothin'

But the comfort of strangers

I remember when i was helpless

And i needed you the most

You left me so defenseless

And vanished like a ghost

We live without answers forever

And it's really not enough

There's all the reasons we're

Not together

But whats that say about us

And like a child inside

I can't help but cry

And i won't let you deny me now

Chorus


9.The Distance

In the beginning, we were much too brave.

We had our love & we were saved.

We've come so far & that's not how we are no more.

Tell me why things have got to change.

We held love in our hands, why we tore it apart,

I just don't understand.

Chorus

There's a distance between us.

Now you feel so far away.

Oh the distance between us.

How did we ever get this way.

Oh baby don't slip away.

Now it's raining & i'm driving much too fast.

How can a city be so dark.

There's this sensation, feeding on itself.

I've got to get to where you are.

We held love in our hands, why we tore it apart,

I don't just understand.

Chorus

Bridge:

I want to reach out & pull you close to me.

Wanna make you remember, just how good it use to be.

Chorus


10.Why

Would have sold my soul for you

Would have lived my whole life through for you

Oh. blood, sweat and tears for you

But you're running away from me

Oh rebel, i see you

In the morning sun

I try to tell i'm the one

But you're running away from me

(and) why do you keep telling me

I'm not the one i used to be

Let me tell you why

Chorus

Why i'm still calling

Why i'm still falling

Why you keep running

Running away from me

How many times do i need to say

The same thing a different way

Everything i ever do's for you

(but you're) running away from me

When i tell you you're the key

You're everything to me

Every truth i ever knew

But you're running away from me.

Chorus

Why do you keep telling me

I'm not the one i used to be

Let me tell you why

Tell me everything's gonna be alright but

I just cant spend the night because

You don't feel

You don't feel

You don't feel

You don't feel the same way i do

Chorus
