my life

Stormwind - you're just like a wind
Coming to drag me away
Stormwind - what can I say?
I just don't want you to stay

I like to walk around in dreams at night
And play with kings and queens 'till the morning light
I like to wake up in the morning unaware

Of the fact that you are calling me
To ask me if I want to be
Someone who you could love and always care for

But you want to change my world
Stay out of my life

Stormwind - you're just like a wind
Coming to drag me away
Stormwind - what can I say?
I just don't want you to stay



Scream of anger

(Tempest/Jacob)

I won't live to see tomorrow
There won't be another breath
None of them will ever sorrow
Those who sentenced me to death

I've been waiting here for ages
For the hangman to appear
Soon the priest will read some pages
From the Bible for my fear

I see a place, an evil place
Coming my way
What can I do? Where can I run?
I'm gonna die anyway

Things are getting clearer
This is the price I have to pay

I feel like screaming out my anger
There is so much left here to do
When it happened I was younger
And my destiny was you

I see a place, an evil place
Coming my way
What can I do? Where can I run?
I'm gonna die anyway

Things are getting clearer
This is the price I have to pay

What can I do about leaving you?
We were only halfway through
What can I say? There was no other way
They wouldn't let me stay

I see a place, an evil place
Coming my way
What can I do? Where can I run?
I'm gonna die anyway

Things are getting clearer
This is the price I have to pay



Open your heart

(Tempest)

Days filled with joy and days filled with sorrow
I don't know just what to do
Am I happy today? Am I lonely tomorrow?
Everything depends on you

I've been waiting
For the angels to knock on my door
I've been hoping
That everything could be like before

Open your heart and tell me what's wrong
Why can't you talk like you used to do before?
I don't know if I'm weak, I don't know if I'm strong
Hey, girl! I can't cope anymore

I've been waiting
For the angels to knock on my door
I've been hoping
That everything could be like before

Open your heart, let me hear you
Make up your mind, I want to hear you call
Open your heart, want to come near you
Make up your mind, oh, girl, before I fall

Maybe the sun will continue to shine
Maybe the rain will continue to fall
Maybe you want to leave me behind
Maybe you'll change and give me a call

Open your heart, let me hear you
Make up your mind, I want to hear you call
Open your heart, want to come near you
Make up your mind, oh, girl, before I fall



Treated bad again

(Tempest)

Hey, girl! Don't come to me
And ask me for a helping hand
'Cause by the way things seem to be
I would never ever understand

When he comes to you
You always take him back
Hey, girl! Just wait and see
You're bound to have a heart attack

'Cause whenever you meet
It always turns out the same
You're treated bad again
Treated bad again

Hey, girl! Why can't you learn
That changes can be made?
'Cause when he comes to you
You got to turn and walk the other way

Go out, hit the town
Try to look for something new
Go out, mess around
Understand what you are going through

'Cause whenever you meet
It always turns out the same
You're treated bad again
Treated bad again

So many nights, my thoughts bring me to you
I've seen him come and go
And so many years you don't know I've been watching you
But baby, baby, baby, would something change if you knew?

Hey, girl! Don't come to me
And ask me for a helping hand
'Cause by the way things seem to be
I would never ever understand

When he comes to you
You always take him back
Hey, girl! Just wait and see
You're bound to have a heart attack

'Cause whenever you meet
It always turns out the same
You're treated bad again
Treated bad again

Wings of tomorrow

(Tempest)

You must be dreaming
Or going out of your mind
There's no way of changing
The world over one night

Maybe you need to recover
From all the things you've been through
Maybe you need to discover
That it ain't much left to do

Ride, ride, ride the wings of tomorrow
Ride, ride, ride to change the world

You feel sorry for the nation
Of 1984
And it cuts you like a razor
'Cause you've seen it all before

You've seen one war after another
So many lifes on the line
You must take care of one another
Or it's the end of time

Ride, ride, ride the wings of tomorrow
Ride, ride, ride to change the world
Ride, ride, ride the wings of tomorrow
Ride, ride, ride to change the world



Wasted time

(Tempest)

Blood's been spilled throughout all times
We should know better since we've been around
There's been changes, there's no denying
But what direction is the good sense flying?

This world so endless blue
Is better for lovers
You cry 'cause you don't know if it's true
If all those years've been wasting time

Wasted time
Wasted time

Evil strikes, you feel the fear
The vision of the future is no longer clear
In your mind you see yourself
Running and hiding, you're somebody else

This world so endless blue
Is better for lovers
You cry 'cause you don't know if it's true
If all those years've been wasting time

Wasted time
Wasted time



Lyin' eyes

(Tempest)

I can tell just by the look in your eyes
That the love is gone that I once took
So much has changed in the way you live
I bet there's nothing left that you can ever give

The words of a madman are spoken
I guess I'm not the only one
The heart of a sadman is broken

Eyes, lyin' eyes
You can fool anyone without disguise
Eyes, lyin' eyes
Your look is cold as ice

It's in your blood, it floats in your veins
I sacrify myself but all I feel is pain
You've done me wrong, you've been so bad
But it's the last time a battle is lost where I'm the one who's sad

The words of a madman are spoken
I guess I'm not the only one
The heart of a sadman is broken

Eyes, lyin' eyes
You can fool anyone without disguise
Eyes, lyin' eyes
Your look is cold as ice

I wish you'd die, I wish you'd break down and cry
I wish you'd move and then I know I'd be satisfied
Can't you see? I'm on the edge, I can't look down
Is it me who's lost and never found

The words of a madman are spoken
I guess I'm not the only one
The heart of a sadman is broken

Eyes, lyin' eyes
You can fool anyone without disguise
Eyes, lyin' eyes
Your look is cold as ice



Dreamer

(Tempest)

He is down by the riverside
Late one night
He's trying to count the stars
In each of the signs

All alone by the riverside
And time passes by
Gathering thoughts of the past
And maybe he'll cry

So they say he's a madman
And he don't understand
But I know that he's trying hard
To act like a man

All those years he has suffered, my friends
All those years of pain
But I don't think he knows for sure
If those years were in vain

He's a dreamer but he's fighting for his life
He's trying to understand
He's a dreamer but he wants to carry on
And I know he's a lonely man

He's a dreamer but he's fighting for his life
He's trying to understand
He's a dreamer but he wants to carry on
And I know he's a lonely man



Dance the night away

(Tempest)

Hey, girl! I can feel your heart
We had something going on right from the start
When I look at you I just feel so good

Hear the music breaking up the ground
Can you feel it? I just love the sound
And I'm letting go just like I should

There's something going on
That's so hard to describe

Well, I can dance the night away
There's nothing else that I want to do
I can dance the night away
There's no one else that I want but you

Tomorrow never gets in my way
When I feel like dancing night and day
I just want to get up and never ever get down

Seems to me I won't get old
And my heart will never ever get cold
It's so hard to feel bad when you're around

There's something going on
That's so hard to describe

Well, I can dance the night away
There's nothing else that I want to do
I can dance the night away
There's no one else that I want but you
