Alannah Myles - Love in the big town

Tekst :

This is the place where nobody comes from
Perfect strangers in this desert town
Just out of flame and looking for favours
Hungry players when the deals go down

You get a hollow heart from shallow breathing
And a see-through smile like the ones on T.V.
This is the land of thrills and money where you
Hit the edge and you drift out to sea

It seems so real, looks so good
But you d give it all up and you d start again if you thought you could
And it sounds so sweet, feels so right
But it leaves you cold in the middle of the night

Chorus:
Step right up, lay your money down
If you re looking to buy love in the big town
Lift you up, tear you down
Leave you begging for more love in the big town

Down in the street with the waiters and mystics
When you got faith in nothing, you just fantasize
You look for a flame but you d fall for a flicker
In those angel faces and those cowboy eyes

They seem so real and they look so good
And with a bit of persuasion you really believe you know you could
Tastes so sweet, feels so right
But it leaves you cold in the heart of the night

Chorus

Oh you learn to use all your desperation
Till it works its way into your soul
Then you find out that you slowly lose control

chorus 2x

  • Love is
  • Yellow rose
  • Tumbleweed
  • Motherload
  • Livin on a memory
  • Still got this thing
  • Kisses are weapons
  • The last time i saw William
  • Irish rain
  • Our world our times
  • The great divide
  • Keeper of my heart
  • Family secret
  • Dark side of me
  • The dance of love
  • Lover of mine

    Through the fire and the flames

    On a cold winter morning, in the time before the light
    In flames of death s eternal reign we ride towards the fight
    And the darkness is falling down and the times are tough all right
    The sound of evil laughter falls around the world tonight

    Fighting high, fighting on for the steel
    Through the...

    Lift me higher

    Follow the sound that is far away
    Cause the love that I found
    Becomes stronger everyday

    Please take my hand so we can fly away
    Then you ll understand
    That the love I have for you will always stay.
    Can t we fly...

    Circle of eternal becoming

    Primordial spells have been written on water s surface
    The abyss silver heart conceals the eternal prayer
    Fire and wind contain the timeless secrets of the knowledge
    Ancestral spirits of the elemental space materialize their ethereal shape
    Dryads, Naiads, Devas, Oreads.
    I trust the practice and theory of what is agreed to call magic
    I believe...

    Gone fishin

    Drown us in sorrow
    Feed us more lies
    Wake me up tomorrow
    Strap me up to the nines

    Senseless reason
    Nervous twitchin
    Tis the season
    Let s go fishin

    Acts of defiance done to you by me

    Taste

    I m up and I can take what you give
    And I m here but I don t want you to live with me
    `Cause all I want is a taste for free

    I m down and I will drag you along and around
    Until you burst into song and unwind
    And leave your new...
