My Inner Heart

You don't need to know my name or speak my language
You don't have to understand a word I say
You don't need to kiss my lips or be my lover
For our hearts to beat together when I play

Just get lost in the rhythm of my inner heart
Can't you hear it in the dark ?

All around the world... I see the people sleeping
Everywhere I look... another nightmare
Everyone I meet... has a burning yearning
But you can break the circle if you dare

Just get lost in the rhythm of my inner heart
Can't you hear it in the dark ?
Just get lost in the rhythm of my inner heart
Can you feel it in the dark ?

You don't need to speak to me or be my neighbour
You don't have to hold my hand along the way
You don't need to know my face or reputation
For our hearts to beat together when I say

Just get lost in the rhythm of my inner heart
Can't you hear it in the dark ?
Just get lost in the rhythm of my inner heart
Can you feel it in the dark ?

25th of July

On the twenty-fifth of July deep in the night
Sat outside that door
I was out of my mind
The tension in my body was so strong
Trying to imagine what was going on
Waiting for you...
Listening for you...

Baby girl, little baby girl
Don't cry tonight
(Smile smile smile)
You will have enough time to cry
When some young guy breaks your heart
Hello Lucile - welcome to this world
We're gonna love you, hold you and cherish you

As I walked through that door and heard you cry
I picked you up and held you in my arms
Gazing at you...
Listening to you...

Baby girl, little baby girl
Don't cry tonight
(Smile smile smile)
You will have enough time to cry
When some young guy breaks your heart
Hello Lucile - welcome to this world
We're gonna love you, hold you and cherish you

Lyric by Manu Katché, Connie Fisher & TR

Go Getter

Parisian Paul lives round the corner
Spends all his time at my place
He keeps on hanging around my girlfriend
She laughs a lot and never complains
He makes me mad and so suspicious
He's patronising and rude
He calls me "Mr Beautiful" and treats me like a stooge
Remember creep, you're eating my food

Hey Mister Go-Getter
Go get out of my life
Don't diss my girlfriend and me
Wise up sucker
You talk too much, I'm sick and tired
This house ain't big enough for three

Let's all take a walk
Let's go to the pool
He's always crowding my space
I don't wanna go out walking
I don't wanna hear him talking
Just want him out of my face

Hey Mister Go-Getter
Go get out of my life
Don't diss my girlfriend and me
Wise up sucker...
You talk too much, I'm sick and tired
This room ain't big enough for three

Hey Mister Go-Getter
Go get out of my life
Lay off my girlfriend and me
I'm no sucker...
I've had enough, I'm getting tired
This bed ain't big enough for three

Lyric by TR and Manu Katché

No Country

Open your eyes and take a look around you -
Is this your idea of paradise ?
With chickens running in the middle of dusty roads
And broken pickup trucks
Rusting in the ditches
Where men work night and day
With hammers in the scrapyards

No country...
No country's free

Some people have more money
Some people have more fun
Some people have more choices
Some people they have none
Some people find enlightenment
Some people go insane
Some people find their freedom
Some people live in chains

Freedom is strictly relative -
One man's pillow is another man's doorstep
Look left, look right, look left again
There are no certainties anymore
Anyone who tells you different
Is either a liar or a fool

No country...
No country's free

Lyric by TR, Manu Katché and Connie Fisher

Change

Do yellow roses redden in the spring
And do yellow leaves fall in winter
Do little children grow up overnight
And does smooth skin turn to wrinkles ?
Who... will answer
Who... I wonder ?

Change... everything will change
Is the answer
But who we change into
Is up to me and you
Change... never-ending change, yeah-yeah
Don't try to fight it anymore

Will the walking wounded learn to love again
Can a drunkard give up drinking
Will the broken soldier walk away from war
Can a cynic keep from sinking
Who... will answer
Who... I wonder ?

Change...
Everybody,
Change is the answer
But who we change into
Is up to me and you
Change...
Never-ending change, yeah-yeah
Don't try to fight it anymore
