Then Again

約翰法漢 Then Again歌詞
1.Angels

Written:Tom Kimmel/Jennifer Kimball

The touch of your hand, will let me know
You take me in, and let me go
If not for love, why would we meet
How is it done, two into one, so easily?

We're lifted up by angels
Higher than the world
Strong enough to leave it
Bound to learn the secrets
Angels never heard

We're lifted up by angels

You understand, yet never say
How every plan would fade away
If not for love, where would you be?
Ashes to dust, water to rust
Away from me

We're lifted up by angels
Higher than the world
Strong enough to leave it
Bound to learn the secrets
Angels never heard

Close enough to heaven
Above the rain
Darkness cannot reach us
Let the angels teach us
Only love remains

We're lifted up by angels
Given wings to fly
Leave the night behind us
Trust the light to find us
Even as we rise

We're lifted up by angels

We're close enough to heave
Above the rain
Darkness cannot reach us
Let the angels teach us
Only love remains

We're lifted up by angels
Higher than the world
Strong enough to leave it
Bound to learn the secrets
Angels never heard

We're lifted up by angels


2.Seemed Like A Good Idea(At The Time)

Written:Ross Wilson/John Farnham/Ross Fraser

I've been a fool, I have been cruel
You put your faith in me
Ask myself why, no alibi
Now that you're facing me
Did things my way, I've had my say
Sometimes I crossed that line
But it seemed like a good idea
Seemed like a good idea at the time

I know I was wrong, I'm holding on
Learning is hard to do
It's not too late, if you will wait
I'll make it up to you
If you refuse, then I will lose
I let our life unwind
But it seemed like a good idea
Seemed like a good idea at the time

Seemed like the ring thing
'Til I watched you go
Seemed like the right thing
But I lost control
Out in the darkness I saw a light
And now I know

A bitter taste has taken the place
Of kisses that were so sweet
Open my eyes, I realise
My lesson is complete
If it ain't broke, don't try to fix it
Sometimes I crossed that line

But it seemed like a good idea
Seemed like a good idea at the time
It seemed like a good idea
Seemed like a good idea at the time

Did things my way, I've had my say
Sometimes I crossed the line
But it seemed like a good idea
Seemed like a good idea at the time

Seemed like a good idea
Seemed like a good idea at the time


3.Only Women Bleed

Lyrics:Alice Cooper/D.Wagner
Music:Alice Cooper/D.Wagner

Man got his woman, to take his seed
He got the power, she got the need
She spends her life through
Pleasing up her man
She feeds him dinner, anything she can
She cries alone at night too often
He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all

Only women bleed

Man makes your hair gray, he's your life's mistake
All you're really looking for, is an even break
He lies right at you
You know you hate this game
Slaps you once in a while, and you live
And love in pain
She cries alone at night too often
He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all

Only women bleed

Black eyes, all of the time, don't spend
A dime and clean up this grime
And you there, down on your knees
Begging to please
Come watch me bleed

Man got his woman, to take his seed
He got the power, she got the need
She spends her life through
Pleasing up her man
She feeds him dinner, anything she can
She cries alone at night too often
He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all

Only women bleed


4.Talent For Fame

Written:John Farnham/Ross Fraser/Richard Marx

Holed up in a motel, only she knows why
Stars dancing in her eyes
Wants her 15 minutes
So much she could cry
She'll take it on at any price
This is what she wanted all along
She's gonna take the chance
Before it's gone

She was somebody's mother
Somebody's wife
Now she's only headline news
By her own admission, it had all been a lie
Now she fairly stands accused
They found her by the road
Her hands were tied
Was she the victim or the mastermind?

Ohh, ohh, she's gonna be someone
Everyone will know her name
Knew what she wanted all along
She's got a talent for fame

Took her down to Broad Beach
And made her sign her name
Many said she went to far
Now she's famous in her Penthouse
A legend in her mind
She's gonna be a country star
She knows she's gonna
Have to leave this town
Is she ever gonna live this down?

Ohh, ohh, she's gonna be someone
Everyone will know her name
Knew what she wanted all along
She's got a talent for fame

She's gonna be someone
She told everyone
She just wants to be a star

This is what she wanted all along
She's gonna take the chance
Before it's gone
Ohh, ohh, she's gonna be someone
Everyone will know her name
Knew what she wanted all along
She's got a talent for fame


5.When All Else Fails

Written:John Farnham/Ross Fraser/Phil Buckle

I'm searching for something
That's so hard to find
I'm falling down mountains
I can't seem to climb
Driving down highways
That don't have an end
I can't find the sign, am I lost again

When all else fails - You will be there
When all else fails - I'll hold on to you
When all else fails - You'll still be there
When all else fails - I'll turn to you

I'm selfish and jealous
I'm proud and a fool
I'm walking with strangers
And strangers are cruel
I'm praying to gods
That I don't even know
I'm ready and willing
Where do I go?

When all else fails - You will be there
When all else fails - I'll hold on to you
When all else fails - You'll still be there
When all else fails - I'll turn to you

I know I might be mistake
But it's the chance I'm taking
I'm walking on the wire
I have been burned by temptation
I'm drawn into that fire
I'm lost in my desire

When all else fails - You will be there
When all else fails - I'll hold on to you
When all else fails - You'll still be there
When all else fails - I'll turn to you

6.What You Don't Know

Written:John Farnham/Phil Buckle/Ross Fraser

Manufacture of consent
Turn your fiction into fact
The story's more important than the truth
Selective information sold
Won't tell us what we should know
The printed word is set with biased hands

There it is in black and white

What you can't see, and don't hear
What you don't know hurts you
What is not said, but instead
What you don't know hurts you

And war look like a TV game
Entertaining frame by frame
But do we ever really know the score
Cover up and change the view
Suggest the side that we should choose
On the air, your own official truth

There it is on satellite

What you can't see, and don't hear
What you don't know hurts you
What is not said, but instead
What you don't know hurts you

What you're not told, but are sold
What you don't know hurts you
What is not shown, won't be known
What you don't know hurts you

What you see, what you hear
What you read
What you don't know hurts

The safety of complacency
Imagination, scarcity
The camera is asleep on my TV
Opinions formed from what I'm fed
From subtitles that I've read
I read the words
But not between the lines

I heard it on the air tonight

What you can't see, and don't hear
What you don't know hurts you
What is not said, but instead
What you don't know hurts you

What you can't see, and don't hear
What you don't know hurts you
What is not said, but instead
What you don't know hurts you


7.Treated This Way

Written:John Farnham/Richard Marx/Phil Buckle/Ross Fraser

I've been watching him
Wearing you down
Somehow you're different
When he's around
I know you feel it, the heart doesn't lie
It's going nowhere, we both know why
And it makes me sad, 'cause you can
Do better than that
I've seen this movie before
I'm not gonna watch anymore

Don't let yourself be treated this way
How can you let yourself be treated this way

I know the pattern
I've seen the signs
Your spirit's been broken
You're hurting inside
There is another side of romance
I can show you, give me a chance
Why keep hanging on, to something
That you know is wrong
You've been in this movie before
Why should you take anymore

Don't let yourself be treated this way
How can you let yourself be treated this way
Don't be afraid of the end
You can start over again
Don't let yourself be treated this way
Save yourself the trouble
Give yourself the chance

Don't be afraid of the end
You can start over again

Don't let yourself be treated this way
How can you let yourself be treated this way

Don't let yourself be treated this way
How can you let yourself be treated this way

(Repeats)


8.Always The Same

Written:John Farnham/Ross Fraser/Jon Stevens/Stuart Frase

There's a young girl working the corner
There's an old man lost at sea
They could tell you a million stories
About the wrong side of the street
There's a rich man making money
From a poor man's misery
It's always the same

Always the same, the fight for survival
Whatever you do today don't make
Tomorrow the same
Fight for survival
Forget about yesterday, don't make
Tomorrow the same

There's a runaway looking for shelter
An innocent heart that bleeds
There's a blind man playing for pity
Says it's the only way to make ends meet
And he's living of his hard luck story
Says he's a victim of society
It's always the same

Always the same, the fight for survival
Whatever you do today don't make
Tomorrow the same
Fight for survival
Forget about yesterday, don't make
Tomorrow the same

The seasons come and go
And all the questions why
How will we ever know if we never try

Always the same, the fight for survival
Whatever you do today don't make
Tomorrow the same
Fight for survival
Forget about yesterday, don't make
Tomorrow the same
Fight for survival
Whatever you do today don't make
Tomorrow the same
Fight for survival
Forget about yesterday, don't make
Tomorrow the same


9.The Reason Why

Lyrics:Richard Marx/Phil Buckle
Music:Richard Marx/Phil Buckle

What did I do
Before the day I set my eyes on you?
Spending my time
Just working on the things I had to do
And then I saw your face
I was captured heart and soul
You gave me so much more

You're the reason why
I listen in the night
And steal the softest kisses
while you sleep
You're the reason why
Tears will fill my eyes
Just looking at a photograph of you

Touching my frown
Tell me what you read between the lines
Everything's alright
I know sometimes I act a little strange
You bring me so much joy
Conversations make me smile
How could I love you more

You're the reason why
I speak with foolish pride
Whenever there's a chance to
Show you round
You're the reason why
I lost this heart of mine
At the very moment you arrived

I can't believe this life was ever lonely
No I can't imagine life before you

You're the reason why
I'm holding on so tight
I never want to let this feeling go
You're the reason why
My love will never die
My heart just could not sing if not for you

What did I do
Before the day I set my eyes on you


10.So Long In Love

Written:Richard Marx/John Farnham/Phil Buckle/Ross Fraser

I've got a strange disposition
I've got to dig down deep sometimes
Can't explain my reasons
I didn't mean to be unkind
I could not tolerate
The same from you, I know
I can't begin to understand
If you were me, I'd

I've been so long in love with you
Though sometimes it don't show
So long in with you
I just thought you should know

You are a constant contradiction
Keep me guessing all the time
Sometimes when I go too far
You pull me back in line
And if I don't go far enough
You show me what to do
I guess that's why, I've been so long
So long in love with you

I've been so long in love with you
Though sometimes it don't show
So long in with you
I just thought you should know

I've never had to fight alone
And if I did I'd never win
Remember when I got so low
I almost threw it in
That day you drove me trembling
Back to face the world
You shook me up, you set me straight
No pity for a whispering fool

I've been so long in love with you
Though sometimes it don't show
So long in with you
I just thought you should know


11.It All Comes Back To You

Written:Darrell Brown/David Batteau/John Farnham/Ross Fra

Who's to say that you don't have
The answers
Who's to say that you do
They say what goes around
Comes around
I believe that it's true
The tears will pass away
And you'll see the day

It's alright, whatever you do
It's alright, it's coming back to you
It's alright, it's all true
It's alright, it's coming back to you

You don't want me to see you this way
At the end of your rope
Passion caught between
Beauty and ashes
It's got you hanging on hope
The nights will turn around
Someday you'll be found

It's alright, whatever you do
It's alright, it's coming back to you
It's alright, it's all true
It's alright, it's coming back to you

The nights will turn around
Someday you'll be found

It's alright, whatever you do
It's alright, it's coming back to you
It's alright, it's all true
It's alright, it's coming back to you


12.Diamonds

Written:Russell Morris/John Farnham/Ross Fraser

I looked there across to the horizon
The moon was bright and high up in the east
I stretched out to touch what I was seeing
And then I looked up
And found it out of reach

There were diamonds on the water
I saw starfire on the sea
Diamonds on the water
You don't need to sleep to have a dream

I believe that certain things can happen
To change the very nature of the beast
And I have been a witness to survival
Nothing really has to rest in peace

There were diamonds on the water
I saw starfire on the sea
Diamonds on the water
You don't need to sleep to have a dream

Here I am, I'm standing on
There edge of here and now
Here I am, my time is coming round
Here I am, dust to dust
I carry ancient ground

Now I am in a perfect situation
But thoughts intrude on me just like a thief
They steal me back
To all that I would run from
Back from where I really want to be

There were diamonds on the water
I saw starfire on the sea
Diamonds on the water
You don't need to sleep to have a dream


13.Rolling Home

Written:Harry Bogdanovs/Chris Thompson

Have you ever been lonely
Tired and broken
And you dream of rolling home
My hearts on the runway
My soul on the freeway
How I wish I was rolling home

Familiar faces fill my mind
From the world I left behind
And it haunts me when I'm sleeping
I awake only to find
That the truth can be unkind
When you're living in the wasteland

I came to this city
With hope for the future
Now I long to be rolling home

Familiar faces fill my mind
As my dreams come back in time
And it haunts me when I'm sleeping
I awake only to find
That the truth can be unkind
When you're living in a wasteland

There's a car in the distance
To take me to freedom
Tomorrow, I'll be rolling home
Maybe tomorrow rolling home

I'm tired of living on my own
Tomorrow, I'll be rolling home
Break the chains that hold me down
Set my sights I'm homeward bound


14.Talk Of The Town

Lyrics:Shane Howard
Music:Shane Howard

The sun goes down on a cloudless sky
The tide is in the waters high
The fisherman are back in town
Tonight they'll either drink or drown

Wait for rain to come down
Wait for rain all year round
It's the talk of the town, goin' 'round

If you're ever in that Gulf country
Strangest land you've seen
Sun's so hot the ground's on fire
Thermometer won't go no higher

Wait for rain to come down
Wait for rain all year round
It's the talk of the town, goin' 'round

If you want to lose those lonely blues
You best put on your dancing shoes
The ringers make for the water hole
Tonight the town will rock 'n roll

Wait for rain to come down
Wait for rain all year round
It's the talk of the town, goin' 'round

Now, Murray knows this ancient land
Like the back of his own hand
See the brolga on the plain
Thousands dancing, bring the pain

And that rain coming down
Hear that rain what a mighty sound
It's the talk of the town, coming down

And that rain coming down
Hear that rain what a mighty sound
It's the talk of the town, coming down
