Song Lyrics - What's the title……..
81 I search for the beat in this dirty town.
82 We're no strangers to love,you know the rules and so do I.
83 If I stayed here, just a little bit longer
84 By the look in your eye, I can tell your gonna cry - Is it over me ?
85 I got me a Chrysler, it seats about twenty
86 I give you all a boy could give you.
87 It’s a million different people from one day to the next
88 I had to crucify some brother today
89 Don't cry for me, next door neighbour
90 And boy I really miss you and I all I wanna do is kiss you
91 There's a fire between us, so where is your god ?
92 I could put my arms around every boy I see
93 Got your lipstick mark still on your coffe cup
94 It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced
95 And I wish you joy, and happiness. But above all this, I wish you love.
96 He lights another match from an oversized book
97 When you were young and your heart was an open book
98 Take Fly, Boss Walk, Jam Nitty Gritty
99 Sierra Smiles, legs that go on for miles and miles
100 We've come a long long way together, through the hard times and the good
101 Water's running in the wrong direction
102 It's erotic, exotic, hypnotic, that's for sure
103 Je t'adore, Ich liebe dich
104 Why do I find it hard to write the next line
105 And so we're running just as fast as we can, holding onto one another's hand
