come back to me

I surrender, I surrender
I'm giving up the role of pretender
Oh, be tender, girl, be tender
Can't you feel the love that I send you?

I surrender
I surrender

I remember, seems like a lifetime
Can't believe it's a matter of days
Since you left me I'm near to heartbreak
I want you so bad, don't turn away

What does it take to stay by my side?
You know I'll do what you want me to
Don't take away this feeling inside
I'm still in love with you

I surrender, I surrender
Giving up the role of pretender
I remember, I remember
Can't you feel the love that I send you?

I surrender
I surrender

I surrender, I surrender
Don't need no wound to be tender
Surrender, I surrender
Feel the love that I send you

I surrender
Surrender
Surrender
Surrender



Spotlight kid

(Blackmore/Glover)

You don't know what's happening, you want to go home
But there's nowhere to hide
You walk out on stage, your first time alone
The crowd's going wild

And you feel so alive
You could stand up and take this all night
They love you
But you're in love with the spotlight

You're the spotlight kid
You're in love with the spotlight
You're the spotlight kid

Jokers and women, they hang 'round your door
They're all part of the scene
Just like a junkie you've got to have more
It's a pleasure machine

And you fly every night
But the dressing room mirror don't lie
They love you
But you're in love with the spotlight

You're the spotlight kid
You're in love with the spotlight
You're the spotlight kid

Your audience died, faded away
Leaving you on the stage
It's been so many years since that first matinee
It seems like an age

Encore one more time
For the ghosts of the past in your mind
They love you
But you're in love with the spotlight

You're the spotlight kid
You're in love with the spotlight
You're living in a dream

You're in love with the spotlight
You're the spotlight kid

You're in love with the spotlight
You're in love with the spotlight
You're in love with the spotlight
You're in love with the spotlight



No release

(Blackmore/Glover/Airey)

Through the smoke the dancers move
Demonic dirty downtown groove
Visions of the day retreat
Come on, baby! Feel the heat

Then I can disappear
And be at peace
But when my mind is clear
I can't get no, no release

No release

In the dark the dancers shout
Scream the cry of freedom out
Strobe crescendos in the night
Minds take cover, souls take flight

Let me disappear
Set me free, set me free
But when my mind is clear
I can't get no, no release

Can't get no release

Set me free, baby
Let me be

I can't get no, I can't get no
I can't get no release
I can't get no, I can't get no
I can't get no release

I can't get no, I can't get no
I can't get no release
I can't get no, I can't get no
I can't get no release

No release
Set me free, set me free, baby
Well, I can feel it again
Feel it, feel it, feel it, baby

Can't get no release
Can't get no release



Magic

(Moran)

There's a light in the sky
That hangs on the edge of illusion
Something very fine but it's something you know is there
Mystery of time hidden by a man of confusion

But the hand is quicker than the eye
Only the stranger knows why

'Cause it's magic
You know it's magic that you'll find
You see it's magic
I know who you are and there's magic in you

Keep your eye on the man
And don't look away for a moment
How is it done? How does he make me see?
Something up his sleeve, when he speaks you want to believe him

But the hand is quicker than the eye
Only the stranger knows why

'Cause it's magic
Can't you see? It's magic that you'll find
You know it's magic
I know who you are 'cause thare's magic in you

Driven by a force
Moving in another dimension
Here for today, gone for eternity
Seeking for truth hidden by the word of his wisdom

But the hand is quicker than the eye
Only the stranger knows why

Can't you feel? It's magic
You know it's magic that you'll find
I said it's magic
I know who you are 'cause thare's magic in you

Can't happen here

(Blackmore/Glover)

Contaminated fish and microchips
Huge supertankers on arabian trips
Oily propaganda from the leaders lips
All about the future

There's people over here, people over there
Everybody's looking for a little more air
Crossing all the borders just to take their share
Planning for the future

And we're so abused
And we're so confused
It's easy to believe
That someone's gonna light the fuse

Can't happen here
Can't happen here
All that you fear, they're telling you
Can't happen here

Supersonic planes for a holiday boom
Rio De Janeiro in an afternoon
People out of work but there's people on the moon
Looking for the future

Concrete racktracks nationwide
Juggernauts carving up the countryside
Cars by the million on a one way ride
Using up the future

And we're so abused
And we're so confused
It's easy to believe
That someone's gonna light the fuse

Can't happen here
Can't happen here
All that you fear, they're telling you
Can't happen here

Can't happen here
Can't happen here
All that you fear, they're telling you
Can't happen here

Satellites spying for the CIA
The KGB and the men in grey
Wonder if I'm gonna see another day
Somewhere in the future

We got everything we need for a peaceful time
Take what you want but you can't take mine
Everybody's living on the Siegfried line
Worried 'bout the future

And we're so abused
And we're so confused
It's so easy to believe
That someone's gonna light it

Easy to believe someone's gonna light the fuse

Can't happen here
Can't happen here
All that you fear, they're telling you
Can't happen here

Can't happen here
Can't happen here
All that you fear, they're telling you
Can't happen here



Freedom fighter

(Blackmore/Glover/Turner)

You can't control me, tell me what to do
Chained in mediocrity so I can be like you
I am not a statue, not part of a machine
I'm sick and tired of the whole routine

Calculate your future, computerise your past
Instant replay if it's gone too fast
Take away my freedom, take away my home
I'm only human but it might not show, I'm not made of stone

I'm a freedom fighter
I got something to say
I'm a freedom fighter
Get out of my way

Hide behind your politics, hide behind your rules
Tell me I'm a man but you treat me like a fool
It's the same old story with a different name
You give us all a number and nothing changes

Out in the winter of a world upon its knees
Everyone is watching but no one sees
You can't take my freedom, you know it is my right
If you try and stop me I'm gonna fight with all my might

I'm a freedom fighter
And I'm taking command
I'm a freedom fighter
And I'm making a stand

Fighting for breath as the world gathers speed
Time's running out for the things that I need

Out in the winter of a world upon its knees
Everyone is watching but no one sees
You can't take my freedom, you know it is my right
If you try and stop me I'm gonna fight with all my might

I'm a freedom fighter
I gotta take a stand
I'm a freedom fighter
That's what I am

I'm a freedom fighter
I cannot take it no more
I'm a freedom fighter
No, no more

I'm a freedom fighter
But I'm not afraid
I'm a freedom fighter
Get out of my way



Midtown tunnel vision

(Blackmore/Glover/Turner)

Take good care, it's a tight rope ride
Neon city is on the dreamers side
Prime time losers going underground
They take you up and they shake you down

Can't see nowhere
Don't know, don't care
'Cause here comes another midtown tunnel vision
Midtown tunnel vision

Sidewalk cruiser in stiletto heels
Frozen heart, eyes of steel
Wrap your body around my soul
Electric love is gonna take its toll

Can't see nowhere
Don't know and I just don't care
That girl is the mother of my midtown tunnel vision
Midtown tunnel vision

Sunset skyline, night turns to day
Down on the street you could fade away
No second chances in this here wasted life
It'll cut you down like a switchblade knife

Can't see nowhere
Don't know and I just don't care
'Cause here comes another midtown tunnel vision
Midtown tunnel vision



Difficult to cure
