LIGHTS OUT

Lyrics from Japanese album insert

(Semi-corrected by listening...)




TOO HOT TO HANDLE

Corrected version sent in by Tom Smith. It can be found 
if you follow the link to it from previous page, cheers Tom!

Caught in the crossfire, warnin' fight

[Let's just make or break game]

Swept up by the road in waves of the night

Big chase for fame



I was too, too hot, baby

Too hot to handle

Yeah, I was too, too hot

Too hot to handle



Wink of an eye, the feelings run high

[The rock and roll malaise]

But I ain't no romance

[And I ain't no soul chance]

Won't get no quick change



*And I'm too, too hot, baby

Too hot to handle

Yeah, I'm too, too hot, baby

Too hot to handle



**Sha la la la, roll you over

Turn you around and do it again

Sha la la la , keep on coming

Do it once but never the same



[INSTRUMENTAL]



**Repeat



I'm in your town, won't fool around

[I'll make some at your step]

Just like the story says, these boys are bad

So keep out of shootin' range



* Repeat

* Repeat (ad lib)





JUST ANOTHER SUICIDE



Just a bad situation

Got me low, feelin' down

I'm wonderin' why

Caught me unawares

No one knows and no one cares

They put you down no matter how you try



* Put the words together

Feelin' so strong

I can't last forever

I can't hold on, I can't hold on, no no



Somebody, someone is tearin' my whole inside

Somebody, someone is takin' me for a ride

Just a little bit of madness

Do you no harm



** Another night, it's a nervous shakedown

Lookin' for a place to hide

This could be your nervous breakdown

It's just another suicide



Just a cold realization, gotta go

I'm gonna turn and run away

Got me in a spin, I'm gonna lose and never win

They put you down no matter what you say



* Repeat



I can't hold on, no no



[INSTRUMENTAL]



** Repeat



[piano break]



Just a bad situation 

I can feel it gettin' closer everyday

Say I'm out of line

[I'm takin' out of borrowed time]

What's the use of tryin' anyway



* Repeat



Somebody, someone is takin' me for a ride

Somebody, someone is tearin' my whole inside

Just a little bit of madness

Do you no harm



** Repeat



***Another suicide, another suicide

Another suicide, another suicide

Another suicide, another suicide







TRY ME



Tell me why we're never more than strangers

Tell me why you never let it show



* But when you're close to me

And whisper, I need you

In the cold mornin' light



**Try me, oh take me for a little while

before it's over and you leave me with just a smile

Try me, oh let me be the one

You say it's over

But for me it had just begun



Tell me why we seem no more than strangers

Tell me why you feelin' never goes



* Repeat

** Repeat



[INSTRUMENTAL]





LIGHTS OUT



Wind blows back and the [frightened Titan]

Runs all the way

Out to the [fun all night long]

Maybe now your time has come



From the back streets there's a rumblin' 

Smell of anarchy

No more nice time, black boy shoe shines

High in the sky dreams



* Lights out, lights out in London

Hold 'em tight 'til the end

Better now you know we'll never

Wait 'til tomorrow

Lights out, lights out in London

Hold 'em tight 'til the end

God knows when I'm comin' on [my] run



Heaven help those who help themselves

That's the way it goes

Bright lit thoughts  once been taught

And now it shows



* Repeat



[INSTRUMENTAL]



* Repeat



You keep comin', there's no  runnin'

Tried a thousand times

Under your feet grass is growin' 

Time we said goodbye



* Repeat



Lights out, lights out in London



Lights out, lights out in London







GETTIN' READY



* You said that was that but this is it

How are you to make the pieces fit

Into a plan to start a new life

Friends pat your back, then stab you with a knife



** I must be blind

I'm gettin' ready to redefine

No [loose connections] as it feels right

I'm gettin ready to hit the [line]



Can you fee me

Inside and out, I'm just waiting for you

[Cuz] it's alright

Now I know just what I want to do



** Repeat



When a day breaks, turns you around

And your world upside down

And the visions fade

Rights and wrongs and just where you've gone



** Repeat



[Pickin' up] is such an awful drag

And I could lose my mind

And every  time that I turned around

I never knew if I could really find you



[INSTRUMENTAL]



*Repeat

** Repeat







ALONE AGAIN OR



* Yeah, said it's alright, I won't forget

All the times I've waited patiently for you

And you do just what you choose to do

And I will be alone again tonight, my dear



Yeah, I heard a funny thing somebody said to me

You know that I could be in love with almost anyone

I think that people are the greatest fun

And I will be alone again tonight my dear



[INSTRUMENTAL]



* Repeat







ELECTRIC PHASE



* On the wires I can hear you comin'

With a rush and a strummin'

This electric phase ain't no teenage craze

In your house a phone is ringin'

Just a hot touch that keeps lingerin'

You said loving's easy only if you please

All I need is communication

Not a line on your reputation

I don't want a handshake

There ain't no big mistake



**There's no illusion in this wild confusion

Who knows I'm crazy, no chance of maybe



I'd like to know you better

But I"m goin' down so fast

Help me now to feel it, I just can't conceal it

Meantime I've got to show you how it's really got to be

Just let me be alone, left with your darlin' tone



** Repeat



[INSTRUMENTAL] 



* Repeat







LOVE TO LOVE



Oh it's been too many times and I can't go back

Night bars, guitars, rundown motels like shacks

What it mounts up to I don't want it at all

Lost you and I want you today



* Misty green and blue

Love to love to love you

Misty green and blue

Love to love to love you



To be something, to be near you

Don't say that youll never know

Love to love to love you



[INSTRUMENTAL]



Half the time it could seem funny

The other half is just too sad

This west bound moon's only rise and fall

Lost you and I want you today



* Repeat



To be something, to be near you

I don't know where I'm goin' to

I've tried and I need you to stay



[INSTRUMENTAL]
