1.Pressure Down

Lyrics:Harry Bogdanovs
Music:Harry Bogdanovs

Set the wheels in motion, and watch them turning round
I want to sail across the ocean, I've grown weary of this town

Take the pressure down
Cause I can feel it, it's rising like a storm
Take hold of the wheels and turn them around
Take the pressure down

In this city full of danger, we lead our separate lives
And I was frightened by a stranger, with desperation in her eyes

Someone turned the pressure on
I called your name and you were gone
And I was trapped like a prisoner in this lonely town
I'm gonna let things slide, until the pressure comes down
Oh the winner tells his story, the loser hides in shame
The winner steals the glory, while the loser takes the pain


2.You're The Voice

Written:Mandy Qunta/Chris Thompson/Keith Reid/Maggie Ryde

We have the chance to turn the pages over
We can write what we want to write
We gotta make ends meet, before we get much older
We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?

You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh-wo-wo-wo, oh-wo-wo-wo
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh-wo-wo-wo, oh-wo-wo-wo

This time, we know we all can stand together
With the power to be powerful
Believing we can make it better
We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?


3.One Step Away

Lyrics:Jon Kennett/D Skinner
Music:Jon Kennett/D Skinner

Where did you come from
I knew it all along
Cause I've been waiting for someone like you
You took me by surprise
The look was in your eyes
I won't be taking chances any more
But it seems like a long time ago
I was the only one
But one look I was hooked and I knew
I'm not the lonely one again

Just one step, I'm gonna get to you
One more step, a little closer to you
One step away, from your love

Where did we belong
In a would that seems so wrong
We could be lovers, strangers, friends
Who knows
But it's only a moment away
And then it's you and me
It's the face in the crowd that you know
The opportunity exists like this


4.Reasons

Lyrics:Sam See
Music:Sam See

Some people are dreamers, they live for the future
As if it would work out, just as they dreamed it
Would work out - somehow
Others get caught in, yesterday's papers
Too busy reading, to get on with living
But I - live for now
Sometimes it's easy to make up excuses
On the flimsiest pretext and then call them reasons
But where are they now?
Like I'm way too busy, I can't be involved now
And then there's the standby about understanding
But they're - wrong somehow

I'll climb more than a mountain
Swim more than an ocean
Build up an island
Live for a lifetime

Just give me a reason and I'll come running
When I have reasons, I know the way
I'm pointing my feet in the right direction
Give me a reason

Some people are dreamers, they live for the future
As if it would work out, just as they dreamed it
Would work out - somehow


5.Going, Going, Gone

Written:John Farnham/David Hirschfelder/Ross Fraser

Things have changed, since we met you
It's hard to see your point of view
It's not the same, we've been sold out
Don't you know, what it's all about

Going, going, gone, don't wait too long
You can't hold on, if you're too far gone
Going, going, gone, the pressure's on
Don't wait too long before you're too far gone

So we've seen, how they run your world
You're just a name, just a flag unfurled
What they say is what you do
But who are they to answer to?

Now it seems, that we did not know
What it means, when we let go
Although we try, to understand
Now's the time, to show your hand


6.No One Comes Close

Lyrics:E Mccuster
Music:E Mccuster

You gave me your cool hand, luke warm reception
It's been such a long time, still there on the platform
What can an old flame do,
But talk about just what's new
Things that have happened since you went away

No one, no one comes close
Someone maybe will come my way, until that day
No one comes close to you

I see you in all those up market movies
You talk on the talk shows, I stare at the TV
What can an old friend say
I know you don't feel this way
I'm taking this chance today, to let you know

Of all the lovers I've ever known, you stand alone
No one comes close to you
Oh I'm going back to my friend
One on whom I can depend
I just smile at her and pretend, I'm free of you
I'm free of you, God knows you're free of me


7.Love To Shine

Lyrics:Harry Bogdanovs/Kiki Dee
Music:Harry Bogdanovs/Kiki Dee

You have no cause to doubt what you see
Close your eyes and set your feelings free
Who has the right to say that you're wrong
Open your heart and let our love grow strong

I want our love to shine down on me
Shining down from up above
You are part of me

I fix my sights and I walk without fear
The road may be dark but my direction is clear
Like a neon sign in a distant town
I watch you shine when the lights go down

I want our love to shine
Oh I want our love to shine
People too scared to say what they mean
Gonna wash their hands to keep their conscience clean
In search of a flame that some call desire
They fly into the light and right back into the fire


8.Trouble

Lyrics:D East
Music:D East

Out in the west the sun goes down
It's just a town like any other town
People wear an innocent facade
Oh, such pretty things to heal a broken heart
Don't tell me, I know it, they all play the game
No questions, no answers, faces without names

You can drive right into a town called trouble
The fun is free but the price is double
Walk right into a town called trouble
The night is waiting for you
But in the morning you'll be gone

As nothing changes life goes on
And every day's like any other one
Never try to change the broken rule
Take, what you get, be sure to play it cool
Don't tell me, I know it, they all play the game
No questions, no answers, faces without names


9.A Touch Of Paradise

Lyrics:Ross Wilson/G Smith
Music:Ross Wilson/G Smith

Flamingos walk, and sway in peace
Seeing this, it makes my troubles cease
The sun is hiding, leaving a pink scar
That stretches right across the sky
That's all we've seen so far
And all I do is look into your eyes

For that special touch of paradise
Just a touch, a touch of paradise
Just a special touch of paradise

You hold my hand, that's when we kiss
And it doesn't take long no, until I get the gist
Of this love that stretches out across the land
Where rainbows flash, as we're walking in the sand
And all I do is look into your eyes

A touch of spring, and autumn sweet
Well the trees vibrate when our eyes meet
And I think of all the love that we have been making
You touch my hand and I walk off shaking
And all I do is look into your eyes


10.Let Me Out

Lyrics:John Farnham
Music:John Farnham

If it's all the same to you
I'd just as soon not come to see you anymore
You're not giving, I'm not taking
I'm like a salesman with one foot inside the door
Well I seem to get the feeling
That I'm filling in for someone else's time
Trapped inside a prison with no walls
Just like a Marcel Marceau mime

Let me out, scream and shout, let me out
Let me out, I'm not waiting until you're finished
Let me out

If it's all the same to you
Just let is go at that, it's over nothing more
Well I'm pushing it uphill, so let it be
I'm on a losing streak, I've lost before
But don't try to cover up the fact
You're using me to play with while wait
Just let me out, I'm getting mad
You'd be surprised how close love is to hate
