"Overnite" lyrics
"Overnite"
When I was seventeen (Tell us about it, Green)
There was a world to know about (Check it out)
Every day I'd call her (What'd she say?)
Is it over yet? Do you love me?
Overnite - and while your trouble's away
Under the stars up above - I'll build you another day
Close your eyes - I'll be home before it's light
And all the tears you cry - will dry in the dead of night
And now I'm in between (Tell us about it Green)
It all became a mystery (Check it out)
Everyday she calls me (What does she say?)
It isn't over yet. Do you believe them?
Overnite - and while your trouble's away
Under the stars up above - I'll build you another day
Close your eyes - I'll be home before it's light
And all the fears you have - will die in the dead of night
Someday - maybe soon - we could show them a way
I would love just to watch it falling
Oh, my pretty one, show me a way
Overnite - I heard a satellite say
There'll be a wind from the west - to blow all your dreams away
Close your eyes - and maybe before it's light
Oh, all the hopes that you have - will die in the dead of night
Overnite - and while your trouble's away
Under the stars up above - I'll build you another day
Close your eyes - I'll be home before it's light
And all the tears you cry - will dry in the dead of night
Overnite - and while your trouble's away
Under the stars up above - I'll build you another day
Close your eyes - I'll be home before it's light
Oh, all the hopes that you have - will die in the dead of night
(Night)
(Light)
(Night)

Thomas Dolby - "The Ability To Swing" Everybody thinking
Thinking pretty hard
Everybody thinking
'Bout singing from the heart
If you want my opinion

Altered Images - "Don't Talk To Me About Love" They exchanged a look
An hour later her voice shook
When her whispering died, she cried
Never wants to recover, she cried
Don't talk to me about love

Aztec Camera - "Working In A Goldmine" Our love's the sound of broken skies
Too blind to see what lies inside
We love what shines before our eyes
Why can't we learn what hides
Waiting on the last train
Flicking through the highlights...
Patti Austin - "Every Home Should Have One" You're a young man, a sweet guy
Handsome, kinda shy
You got a nice car, a steady job
Money, you got plenty of
What can I give a man with everything?
Just one thing you need
You need one lovin'...
Talk Talk - "I Believe In You" Hear it in my spirit
I've seen heroin for myself
On the street so young, laying wasted
Enough, ain't it enough, crippled world

Tell me how I fear it
