1. TAROT WOMAN

I don't want to go, something tells me no, no, no, no
But traces in the sand, the lines inside my hand Say go, go, go
Beware of a place, A smile on a bright shiny face
I'll never return, how do you know, Tarot woman
I don't know, I don't know

She can take you there, the entrance to the fair, my, my, my
Ride a carousel, and cast a magic spell, you can fly, fly
Beware of a place, A smile on a bright shining face
I'll never return, how do you know, tarot woman, but I don't know
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know

Something in the air tells me to beware, no, no, no
Her love is like a knife, she’ll carve away your life, so go, go, go
Beware of a place, A smile on a bright shining face
I'll never return, how do you know, tarot woman
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, hey, I don't know

2. RUN WITH THE WOLF

In the light of the day, you can hear the old one’s say
Was the sound last night the wind, can you feel the change begin
By the fall of the snow, A single soul will go
The footsteps on the white, there's an unholy light
There's a hole in the sky, something evil's passing by
What's to come, when the siren calls you go
To run with the wolf

When the world makes a turn, the eyes of one will learn
That the sound just like the wind, only makes the change begin
By the end of the rain, the feelings passed again
From the things that snap and bite, an Unholy light
There's a hole in the sky, something evil's passing by
What's to come, when the siren calls you go
To run with the wolf

There's a break in the ground, like the swirling water's angry as
They pull you down, when the siren calls you go, yeah
To run with the wolf, run with the wolf
There's a hole in the sky, something evil just passing by
What's to come, when the siren calls you go, yeah
To run with the wolf, run with the wolf
Like a beast in a field, he knows his fate and still
He runs with the wolf, oh, run with the wolf
Sees his mate, he knows it’s late, there he goes
To run, run, run, run, run, run, run
Run with the wolf, run with the wolf
Run with the wolf, run with the wolf
Run, run, run, there he goes
Run, run, run, run, run with the wolf
Run with the wolf, all right
Run with the wolf, run with the wolf

3. STARSTRUCK

If I'm high on the hill, she will still be looking down at me
What does she see that brings her closer every day to my heart
If I'm away from home, and think I'm all alone, she's there, somewhere
I look around to see, and looking back at me, she's there, beware
Creeping like a hungry cat, seen her before
I know it can mean that
The lady’s starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck
The lady’s starstruck, running after me
The lady’s starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck, yeah, yeah

I could fly to the moon, but she’d soon find a way to be there
I never knew for a while a smile made her really care
She wants a souvenir, to everyone it's clear, she’s hooked with one look
She want a photograph, and everybody laughs, but not me, 'cause I see
She's creeping like a hungry cat, I've seen it before
I know it can mean that
The lady’s starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck
The lady’s starstruck, running after me
The lady’s starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh my, the lady’s starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck
The lady’s starstruck, running after me, yeah
The lady’s starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck, yeah

It used to be a game, now I can't repeat my name at all
She seems to believe that I never can refuse a call
She wants a souvenir, to everyone it's clear, she’s hooked, one look
She wants a photograph, and everybody laughs, “ha”, but not me
‘Cause I see, she's creeping like a hungry cat, I’ve seen it before
I know it can mean that
The lady’s starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck
The lady’s starstruck, running after me
The lady’s starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck, bad luck
The lady’s starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck
The lady’s starstruck running after me
The lady’s starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck
Bad luck, bad luck, bad luck
In back of a tree, a looking back at me
Climbing up my stair, I’ve just got to beware
The Lady’s starstruck, yes, she's bad luck, bad luck

4. DO YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES

Ooh na na na na
Mystery to me is something I can't see, but I see you very well
You're slinky, cool, nobody's fool
But there's something inside I can tell
I know a poor man, a rich man, I know how to talk to a king
But nobody here is gonna tell me I can't find out one thing

I see a glow around you
Open your arms 'cause I'm walking to you, come straight on through
Maybe I'm wrong, but I know it won't take long to see
Do you close your eyes, do you close your eyes
Do you close your eyes when you’re making love, yeah, yeah
Making sweet love to me, yeah

The logical trend is that I’ll know in the end
The things that make you smile
So right from the start, I’m taking aim at your heart
and note it all the while
I know a rich man, a poor man, I know I can talk to a king, yeah
So nobody here is gonna make me believe I can't find out one thing

I see your glow around you
Open your arms 'cause I'm coming, running, straight on through
I could be wrong, but I know it won't take long to see
Do you close your eyes, do you close your eyes
Do you close your eyes when you’re making love, yeah

Do you close your eyes, do you close your eyes, I got to know
Do you close your eyes when you’re making love

5. STARGAZER

High noon, oh I'd sell my soul for water
Nine years worth of breaking my back
There's no sun in the shadow of the wizard
See how he glides, why he's lighter than air
Oh I see his face, where is your star
Is it far, is it far, is it far
When do we leave, I believe, yes I believe
In the heat and the rain, with whips and chains
See him fly, so many die
We built a tower of stone with our flesh and bone
Just to see him fly, don't know why
Now where do we go

Hot wind moving fast across the desert
We feel that our time has arrived
The world spins, while we put his dream together
A tower of stone to take him straight to the sky
Oh I see his face, where is your star
Is it far, is it far, is it far
When do we leave, hey, I believe, I believe
In the heat and the rain, with whips and chains
Just to see him fly, too many die
We built a tower of stone with our flesh and bone
To see him fly, but we don't know why
Oh, now where do we go

All eyes see the figure of the wizard
As he climbs to the top of the world
No sound, as he falls instead of rising
Time standing still, then there's blood on the sand
Oh I see his face, where was your star
Was it far, was it far
When did we leave, we believed, we believed, we believed
In heat and rain, with the whips and chains
To see him fly, so many died
We built a tower of stone with our flesh and bone
To see him fly, but why
In all the rain, with all the chains, did so many die
Just to see him fly
Look at my flesh and bone, now, look, look, look, look,
Look at his tower of stone
I see a rainbow rising
Look there, on the horizon
And I'm coming home, coming home, I'm coming home
Time is standing still, could you give back my will, oh, oh, oh, oh
Going home, I'm going home, my eyes are bleeding
And my heart is leaving here
The flesh and bone, well it's not home, oh no, take me back
And give me back my will, oh, oh, oh, oh
Going home, I'm going home
My eyes are bleeding, and my heart is leaving here
Flesh and bone, well it's not home, oh no
Take me back, Take me back
Back to my home, oh, oh, oh
Time is standing still

6. A LIGHT IN THE BLACK

I can't forget his face, but what a lonely place
Has he really let us go
All the time that's lost, what's the final cost
Will I really get away
And all my life it seems, is just a crazy dream
Reaching for somebody's star
Can't believe it all, did he really fall
What to do now I don't know
Something's called me back, there's a light in the black
and I’m ready to go, I'm coming home

Breathed the air before, heard the thunder roar
Never knew it was for me
Always looking down, lost and never found
Eyes that look but not to see
All my life it seems is just a crazy dream
Reaching for somebody's star
Like an open door that you passed before
But you never had the key
Something's calling me back, there's a light in the black
And I’m ready to go
I'm coming home, I'm coming home, yeah
I'm going back to my home

I'm going home, home, home, going home, home, home
I'm coming back
Don't forget his face, what a lonely place
Did he really let us go
All the time that's lost, what's the final cost
Will I really get away?
All my life it seems, just a crazy dream
Reaching for somebody's star
Can't believe it all, did he really fall
What to do now, well I know
Something's calling me back, like a light in the black
Yes, I´m ready to go
I'm coming home, home, yeah

I've got my way back home to the sky
There in the sky, I see a star
