Another day's gone by My back's seen the walls Thought about the will to try I must have it all Oh, I won't be a pretender I want to be the light And so to you I surrender It's over Give it up, make me a believer Give it up, make me a believer Oh no, the nights are long I warned you before With the lights I know I still want it all And when the fire is over And when the smoke has cleared It's when they all will remember It's over Give it up, make me a believer Give it up, make me a believer, a believer Give it up, make me a believer Give it up, make me a believer Give it up, make me a believer Give it up, make me a believer Give it up Give it up Give it up I want it all

I'm ready to fight Like a dog ready to bark Just out on the prowl I've not got any home You better run, you better hide And wait for the night When you find the heat is on you know Angels never run I'm going to get high And I don't care if you live or die Just cruising the road Turning it up, going to make it explode You better run, you better hide And wait for the night When you find the heat is on you know Angels never run Angels never run Angels never run I'm ready to fight Like a dog ready to bark Just out on the prowl I've not got any home You better run, you better hide And wait for the night When you find the heat is on you know Angels never run Angels never run Angels never run Angels never run Angels, angels, angels never run Angels, angels, angels never run Angels never run

I've been trying for years to clean up the mess I made. Have you been trying for years? Accommodation, adjustment, those do seem to be in the order of things, don't they? Don't try to put me in the same class with you. No, no, of course not. I mean things are simpler for you. You marry a woman because she's all blown up, where as I, in my old-fashioned way. There was more to it than that. Sure, sure. I bet she has money, too. Every day I work so hard Give you everything money could buy Gave you my heart and soul But you didn't even try Caught in the Crossfire, I can't live with you and I can't make it alone Crossfire, no, I can't take it and I can't make it alone Times are hard, things look bad You play it cool, never show your hand You're not giving all that you can Because I give it all that I have Crossfire, I can't live with you and I can't make it alone Crossfire, no, I can't take it and I can't make it alone Crossfire, I can't make it alone Every day I work so hard Give you everything money could buy Gave you my heart and soul But you didn't even try Crossfire, I can't live with you and I can't make it alone Crossfire, no, I can't take it and I can't make it alone Crossfire, I can't live with you and I can't make it alone Crossfire, no, I can't take it and I can't make it alone

I can see, I can feel, I can understand What it's like, to be me, a solitary man I can learn, I can try, to be a picture of Here I stand all alone, a prisoner of love I climbed a mountain, to see what I could find And what I found was reality I swam the ocean to break the chains of mine But in my heart beats a bad story Somebody take me, somewhere above, I'm still alone,a prisoner of love So many faces, appearing in the night Haunting my dreams with their memory I turn to touch you, to feel you by my side But all that's left is a memory Somebody take me, somewhere above, I'm still alone,a prisoner of love Somebody take me, somewhere above, I'm still alone,a prisoner of love Of love, of love, of love

I took a trip across the ocean, I was looking for love I close my eyes to feel emotion And block the light from above I made love to a special lady Her eyes as black as the night She became the queen of passion The heat of lust in her eyes And the morning I woke up and I was alone Stuck in the mirror a note, with her name It was all that she wrote Tokyo rose, you came to me in the night Tokyo rose, come back to me, Why don't you come back Tokyo Rose Now that you left me alone And the morning I woke up and I was alone Stuck in the mirror a note, with her name It was all that she wrote Tokyo rose, you came to me in the night Tokyo rose, come back to me, Why don't you come back Tokyo Rose Tokyo rose, you came to me in the night Tokyo rose, come back to me, Why don't you come back Tokyo Rose
