Since You're Gone
since you're gone
the nights are gettin' strange
since you're gone
well, nothing's makin' any sense
since you're gone
I stumbled in the shade
since you're gone
everything's in perfect tense, well
I can't help it
when you fall apart
'd I (and I) can't help it
guess you better start
that is forgettin' about you
(since you're gone)
since you're gone
nights are gettin' strange
(since you're gone)
since you're gone
thrownin' it all away
(since you're gone)
since you're gone
the nights are gettin' strange
(since you're gone)
since you're gone
thrownin' it all away
I can't help it
everything's a mess
I can't help it
you're so treacherous
when it comes, to tenderness
(since you're gone)
I can't help it
everything's a mess
I can't help it
you're so treacherous
oh, where's that tenderness?
(since you're gone)
since you're gone
I missed the peak sensation
(since you're gone)
since you're gone
I took the big vacation
(since you're gone)
well, never feel sedate
(since you're gone)
well, the moonlight ain't so great
(since you're gone)
since you're gone
(since you're gone)
well, I've thrown it all away
(since you're gone)
when the night (?)
(since you're gone)
strange
I've thrown it all away
(since you're gone)
well, since you're gone
(since you're gone)
since you're gone
since you're gone
(since you're gone)
I've thrown it all away
(since you're gone)

I'm not the one
That you'll be shooting for

I'm not the one
Who's coming back for more

You know why
We've been through this too many times
You know why
It's never clear it's pantomime

Going 'round and 'round
'cause you can't get on your feet
Going 'round and 'round
Still taking all the heat
Going 'round and 'round
Never touching ground

I'm not the one
Whose memory you still keep, and
I'm not the one
Who's talking in your sleep

You know why
I don't have to tell you twice
You know why
I knew when you weren't so nice

Going 'round and 'round
'cause you can't get on your feet
Going 'round and 'round
Still taking all the heat
Going 'round and 'round
Never touching ground

I'm not the one
That you'll be breaking in, and
I'm not the one
That could be taken in

You know why
I tried and tried to crack the shell
You know why
When you fake it's hard to tell

Going 'round and 'round
'Cause you can't get on your feet
Going 'round and 'round
Still taking all the heat
Going 'round and 'round
'Cause you can't get on your feet
Going 'round and 'round
And 'round and 'round
And 'round and 'round
'Cause you can't get off your feet
And 'round and 'round
Still taking all the heat
'Round and 'round
'Cause you can't get off your feet
'Round and 'round
Still taking all the heat
'Round and 'round
'Cause you can't get off your feet
'Round and 'round
Still taking all the heat
'Round and 'round
'Cause you can't get off your feet
'Round and 'round

Victim
She can take you
anywhere she wants to
She can show you things,
That make you weak
She can make you think,
That you're the only one,
She can steal your heart,
with just one wink,
why she'll hold ya tight,
and she won't let go,
She'll make it last and she'll make it slow,
She tell you things that you should not know,
cause your the victim, the victim of lo-o-ove,
Framed by the night, touched by the glove,
your the victim, the victim of love,
She can freeze you, when she doesn't want to talk,
She can work it on in, yea she can go take a walk,
She can have or leave it, she can do the skidoo-o ,
Well you better believe it, She's having fun on you,
She can hold you tight,
and she won't let go,
She'll make it last and she'll make it slow,
She'll tell you things you should not know,
Cause your the victim, victim of lo-o-ove,
framed by the night, touched by the glove,
Your the vic-tim, victim of lo-o-ove,
That's right,
Oh When she's calling you out,
You better run to her-er,
when she's just falling out,
You'd better care,
Oh when she needs somebody,
Oh you better run to her-er,
Oh when she gives in too soon,
It's just not fair.
Oh well she'll hold you tight,
And she won't let go,
She'll make it last and she'll make it last ,
and she'll make it slow-o,
She'll whisper things,
you'd never know,
cause you the victim, yea,
victim of lo-o-ove,
You're framed by the night,
and touched by love,
You're the vic-tim,
victim of lo-o-ove,
(repeat, fade.)

big city noise disappears
sucker punch is in your heart
light is reason light is due
my shape is shapeless in your suit

chrome red eyeballs reflect and roll
a simple sun is slowly sinking
roman shoes and pretty hats
glitter bombs that beat the beat

you comb the night 'cause you're a cruiser
and ya you never get enough
when you're cruisin' down the street
and takin' off the heat
when you're on the moonlight run
(cruiser)
(cruiser)

floating jets and big vignettes
get the treatment grab a cab
set aside the screaming fish
tell the world why you're so glad

flip the switches pull the plug
you always wait for better news
you need a hit you need a slu-ug
you don't easily get amused

you comb the night 'cause you're a cruiser
and ya you never get enough
when you're cruisin' down the street
and you're takin' off the heat
when you're on the moonlight run
(cruiser)
well you're a cruiser
(cruiser)
cruiser
(cruiser)
cruiser
(cruiser)

five in the mornin,' all alone in your room
door locked tight, private moon
no faces to face, no one to blame
nonexistent inside this frame

(?) take it on the run
oo, yeah take it on the run
uh yeah

there's a cheetah walkin' high
liquid whispers, dragonfly
charleston booties on painted toes
drop the knot ivory soul

(?) take it on the run
oo yeah, take it on the run
oo yeah, take it on the run
because the good life is just a dream away
I said the good life is just a dream awaaaay

choke emotion, all lose control
chicken encounters fill your bowls
the lonely crowd is decomposed
lost obsession, future froze

well, take it on the run
oo yeah, take it on the run
oo yeah, take it on the run
take it on the run
take it on the run
take it on the run
take it
cause the good life is just a dream away
yeah, oo the good good life is just a dream away
oo, oh well the good good good good life is just a dream away
just a dream
just a dream
just a dream, dream away
(?) the good good good good life
the good life is just a dream away
just a dream
just a dream
dream away

oh yea i got time
oh yea i guess i'm doing fine
till i met you in the dark
i was chasing little sparks
you were slinked and dressed in pink
here with someone you wouldn't think
is this the kill is this the thrill
i'll wait until you say
this could be love
oh yea i got hope
oh yea it comes and goes
till i met you things were easy
till i met you things were sleazy
doesn't matter once i told
you were someone i could hold
oh yea i need you
oh yea more than you want me to
till i met you in the dark
i was chasing little sparks
when you think you're going to sink
comes someone you wouldn't think

every time I see you I got to jump and shout
I haven't got a clue what it's all about
oo I never had a dream that looked so much like you
I'll do anything that you want me to

(think it over, think it over)
there's nothin' you can do to make me wanna stop
(think it over, think it over)
oo every time you run around it makes me want to pop


what's it gonna take to make you change your line?
what's it gonna take to get your valentine?
how can I be sure that you're the one for me?
I only know that you wanted to be free

(think it over, think it over)
there's nothin' you can do to make me wanna stop
(think it over, think it over)
every time you run around it makes me want to pop
nothin' you can do to make me wanna stop

every time you run around makes me want to pop
nothin' you can do to make me wanna stop
think it over
pop
pop

I heard stories about you
I'd like to think that they were true
I did not know you'd be like that
with those surprises under hat

be my (echo), be my (echo), be my maybe baby
be my (echo), be my (echo), be my maybe baby
be my (echo), be my (echo), be my maybe baby

when you dance between the stars
in the night late sweet and dark
turn them over one by one
you don't need to jump the gun

be my (echo), be my (echo), be my maybe baby
be my (echo), be my (echo), be my maybe baby
be my (echo), be my (echo), be my maybe baby

when the night is feeling flush
and when the night is all a hush
electric look eclectic blue
keep one dream that won't come true

be my (echo), be my (echo), be my maybe baby
be my (echo), be my (echo), be my maybe baby
be my (echo), be my (echo), be my ma-aybe baby
be my (echo), be my (echo), be my ma-aybe baby

maybe baby
maybe baby
be my, be my, be my, be my maybe baby
maybe baby
maybe baby
you're the one (?)

maybe baby
maybe baby
maybe baby
be my, be my, be my, be my maybe baby
(unintelligible) maybe baby

I heard stories about you
I'd like to think that they were true
be my maybe (?)
be my, be my, be my, be my
