If you had the 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 Caught somewhere in time, caught somewhere in time Caught somewhere in time, oh Caught somewhere in time, caught somewhere in time Caught somewhere in time, oh Like a wolf in 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, hahaha, eternally let yourself go Caught somewhere in time, caught somewhere in time Caught somewhere in time, oh Caught somewhere in time, caught somewhere in time Caught now in two minds, oh

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 Like the eagle and the dove, fly so high on wings above When all you see can only bring you sadness Like a river we will flow, on towards 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 got 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 Like the eagle and the dove, fly so high on wings above When all you see can only bring you sadness Like a river we will flow, on towards the sea we go When all you do can only bring you sadness Out on the sea of madness 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 towards the sea we go Out in the night 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 Like the eagle and the dove, fly so high on wings above When all you see can only bring you sadness Like a river we will flow, on towards the sea we go When all you do can only bring you sadness On the sea of madness Of madness Of madness Of madness

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 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 Heaven can wait, heaven can wait Heaven can wait, heaven can wait till another day Heaven can wait, heaven can wait Heaven can wait, heaven can wait till 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 paths 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 Heaven can wait, heaven can wait Heaven can wait, heaven can wait till another day Heaven can wait, heaven can wait Heaven can wait, heaven can wait till another day 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 decided 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 Feel myself floating back down to earth So could this be the hour of my rebirth Or have I died or will I wake from dreaming? Heaven can wait, heaven can wait Heaven can wait, heaven can wait till another day Heaven can wait, heaven can wait Heaven can wait, heaven can wait till another day Heaven can wait, heaven can wait Heaven can wait, heaven can wait till another day Heaven can wait, heaven can wait Heaven can wait, heaven can wait till another day

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 Got to win got to run 'til you drop Keep the pace hold the race Your mind is getting clearer You're over half way there But the miles they never seem to end As if you're in a dream Not getting anywhere It seems so futile 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 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 trace You feel like throwing the race It's all so futile Run on and on Run on and on The loneliness of the long distance runner

When you see familiar faces But you don't remember where they're 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 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 realize 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 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

My son ask for thyself another Kingdom, for that which I leave is too small for thee? Near to the east In a part of ancient Greece In an ancient land called Macedonia Was born a son To Philip of 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 Alexander the Great His name struck fear into hearts 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 the 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, treasures he found Took Persepolis the capital of Persia Alexander the Great His name struck fear into hearts of men Alexander the Great Became a God amongst mortal men A Phrygian king had bound a chariot yoke And Alexander cut the Gordian Knot? And legend said that who untied the knot He would become the master of Asia Hellenism 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 combat, pain and the glory Alexander the Great His name struck fear into hearts of men Alexander the Great He died of fever in Babylon
