CAUGHT SOMEWERE IN TIME (Harris)

 If you had a time to lose

 An open mind and time to choose

 Would you care to take a look

 Or can you read me like a book

 Time is always on my side

 Time is always on my side

 Can I tempt you come with me

 Be Devil may care fulfill your dream

 If I said I'd take you there

 Would you go would you be scared

 Time is always on my side

 Time is always on my side

 Don't be afraid you're safe with me

 Safe as any soul can be… honestly

 Just let yourself go

 Chorus:

 Caught somewhere in time

 Caught somewhere in time

 Caught somewhere in time… oh oh

 Like a wolf and sheep's clothing

 You try to hide your deepest sins

 Of all the things that you've done wrong

 And I know where you belong

 Time is always on my side

 Time is always on my side

 Make you an offer you can't refuse

 You've only got your soul to lose…

 Eternally… Just let yourself go!

 Chorus:

 Caught somewhere in time

 Caught somewhere in time

 Caught now in two minds!

 

 

 WASTED YEARS (Smith)

 From the coast of gold, across the seven seas

 I'm travellin' on, far and wide

 But now it seems, I'm just a stranger to myself

 And all the things I sometimes do, it isn't me but someone else

 I close my eyes and think of home

 Another city goes by in the night

 Ain't it funny how it is, you never miss it 'til its gone away

 And my heart is lying there and will be 'til my dying day

 Chorus:

 So understand

 Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted years

 Face up… make your stand

 And realise you're living in the golden years

 Too much time on my hands, I got you on my mind

 Can't ease this pain, so easily

 When you can find the words to say it's hard to make it through another day

 And it just makes me wanna cry and throw my hands up to the sky

 Chorus:

 

 

 SEA OF MADNESS (Smith)

 Out in the street somebody's crying

 Out in the night the fires burn

 Maybe tonight somebody's crying

 Reached the point of no return

 Oh - my eyes they see but I can't believe

 Oh - my heart is heavy as I turn my back and leave

 Chorus:

 Like the eagle and the dove

 Fly so high as wing above

 When all you see can only bring you sadness

 Like a river we will flow

 On toward the sea we go

 When all you do can only bring you sadness

 Out on the sea of madness

 Somewhere I hear a voice that's calling

 Out in the dark there burns a dream

 You go to hope when you are falling

 To find the world that you have seen

 Oh - my eyes they see but I can't believe

 Oh - my heart is heavy as I turn my back and leave

 Chorus:

 It's madness 

The sun don't shine

 On the sea of madness

 There ain't no wind to fill your sails

 Madness when all you see can only bring you sadness

 On a towards sea we go…

 

 

HEAVEN CAN WAIT (Harris)

 Can't understand what is happening to me

 This isn't real this is only a dream

 But I never have felt, no I never have felt this way before

 I'm looking down on my body below

 I lie asleep in the midst of a dream

 Is it now could it be that the Angel of Death has come for me

 I can't believe that really my time has come

 I don't feel ready there's so much left undone

 And it's my soul and I'm not gonna let it get away

 Chorus:

 Heaven can wait

 Heaven can wait

 Heaven can wait

 Heaven can wait til another day

 I have a lust for the Earth below

 And Hell itself is my only foe

 'Cause I've no fear of dying

 I'll go when I'm good and ready

 I snatch a glimpse of the light's eternal rays

 I see a tunnel I stand amazed

 At all of the people standing there in front of me

 Into the path of rightness I'll be led

 Is this the place where the living join the dead

 I wish I knew this was only just a nightmare.

 Chorus:

 Take my hand I'll lead you to the promised land

 Take my hand I'll give you immortality

 Eternal youth I'll take you to the other side

 To see the truth the path for you is deicide

 My body tingles I feel so strange

 I feel so tired I feel so drained

 And I'm wondering if I'll ever be the same again

 Is this in limbo or in Heaven or Hell

 Maybe I'm going down there as well

 I can't accept my soul will drift forever

 I feel myself floating back down to Earth

 So could this be the hour of my rebirth

 Or have I died or will wake from dreaming?

 Chorus:

 

 

THE LONELINESS OF THE LONG DISTANCE RUNNER (Harris)

 The tough of the track

 With the wind

 And the rain that's beating down on

 Your back

 Your heart's beating loud

 And goes on getting louder

 And goes on even more 'til the

 Sound is ringing in your head

 With every step you tread

 And every breath you take

 Determination

 Makes you run never stop

 Gotta win got to run 'til you drop

 Keep the pace hold the race

 Your mind is getting clearer

 You're over halfway there

 But the miles they never seem to end

 As if you're in a dream

 Not getting anywhere

 It seems so futile

 Chorus:

 Run, on and on

 Run, on and on

 The loneliness of the long distance runner

 I've got to keep running the course

 I've got to keep running and win at all costs

 I've got to keep going be strong

 Must be so determined and push myself on

 Run over stiles across the fields

 Turn to look at who's on your heels

 Way ahead of the field

 The line is getting nearer but do

 You want the glory that goes

 You reach the final stretch

 Ideals are just a trance

 You feel like throwing the race

 It's all so futile

 Chorus:

 

 

STRANGER IN A STRANGE LAND (Smith)

 Was may years ago that I left home and came this way

 I was a young man full of hopes and dreams

 But now it seems to me that all is lost and nothing gained

 Sometime things ain't what they seem

 No brave new world, no brave new world

 Night and day I scan the horizon, sea and sky

 My spirits wanders endlessly until the day will dawn and friends from home discover why

 Hear me calling, rescue me

 set me free, set me free

 Lost in this place, and leave no trace.

 Chorus:

 Stranger in a strange land

 Land of ice and snow

 Trapped here in this prison

 Lost and far from home

 One hundred years have gone and men again they came that way,

 To find the answer to the mistery

 They found his body lying where it fell on that day

 Preserved in time for all to see

 No brave new world, no brave new world

 Lost in this place, and leave no trace

 What became of the men that started

 All are gone and souls departed

 Left here in this prison

 So all alone

 Chorus:

 

 

DEJA-VU (Murray/Harris)

 When you see familiar faces

 But you don't remember where they from

 Could you be wrong?

 When you've been particular places

 That you know you've never been before

 Can you be sure?

 'Cause you know this has happened before

 And you know that this moment in time is for real

 And you know when you feel deja-vu

 Chorus:

 Feel like I've been here before

 Feel like I've been here before

 Feel like I've been here before

 Feel like I've been here before

 Ever had a conversation,

 That you realise you've had before

 Isn't it strange?

 Have you ever talked to someone

 And you feel you know what's coming next?

 It feels pre-arranged

 'Cause you know that you've heard it before

 And you feel that this moment in time is surreal

 'Cause you know when you feel deja-vu

 Chorus:

 

 

ALEXANDER THE GREAT (Harris)

 "My son, ask for thyself another

 Kingdom, for that which I leave

 Is to small for thee"

 (King Philip of Macedonia - 339 B.C.)

 Near to the east

 In a part of ancient Greece

 In an ancient land called Macedonia

 Was born a son

 To Philip the Macedon

 The legend his name was Alexander

 At the age of nineteen

 He became the Macedon King

 And he swore to free all of Asia Minor

 By the Aegian Sea

 In 334 B.C.

 He utterly beat the armies of Persia

 Chorus:

 Alexander the Great

 His name struck fear into the heart of men

 Alexander the Great

 Became a legend 'mongst mortal men

 King Darius the third

 Defeated fled Persia

 The Scythians fell by the river Jaxartes

 Then Egypt fell to the Macedon King as well

 And he founded city called Alexandria

 By the Tigris river

 He met King Darius again

 And crushed him again in the battle of Arbela

 Entering Babylon

 And Susa, treasure he found

 Took Persepolis the capital of Persia

 Chorus:

 Alexander the Great

 His name struck fear into the heart of men

 Alexander the Great

 Became a legend amongst mortal men

 A Phrygian King had bound a chariot joke

 And Alexander cut the "Gordion Knot"

 And legend said that who untied the knot

 He would become the master of Asia

 Helonism he spread far and wide

 The Macedonian learned mind

 Their culture was a Western way of life

 He paved the way for Christianity

 Marching on, marching on

 The battle weary marching side by side

 Alexander's army line by line

 They wouldn't follow him to India

 Tired of the combat, pain and glory

 Chorus:

 Alexander the Great

 His name struck fear into the heart of men

 Alexander the Great

 He died of fever in Babylon
