All I Want is Everything
(J. Lyon/B. Rush)
There is a drug on the market
They claim will satisfy
But I tried them already
And they just don't gratify
There ain't no drug ever made
Ever gonna pacify me
'Cause all I want is everything
All I want is everything
All I want is everything, everything
Forty-second street has so many devices
But very little I haven't tried
Newspapers drool at a mouthful of vices
Headlined in the classifieds
They say there's a limit to endurance
I know that I haven't reached mine
All I want is everything
All I want is everything
And I know that it's just my obsession
Makes me scurry like a rat in a maze
And I know it's becoming an addiction
I need it now, right now, right now
Strong arm tactics have come into fashion
The muscle boys are back in style
They shatter the bones of descension
And never crack a smile
Well, if that's the way breaks are gotten
You know I'm gonna give it a try
All I want is everything
All I want is everything
All I want is everything
All I want, all I want, all I want is everything
Just give me everything
I don't want much, I just want it all, want it all
Everything, everything, everything, everything

Hearts of Stone
(B. Springsteen)
You stare in the mirror at the lines in your face
And you try so hard to see
The way things were when we were at your place
Everyday was just you and me
And you cry because things ain't like before
Well, don't you know it can't be that way anymore
But don't worry baby
I can't talk now, I'm not alone
So put your ear close to the phone
This is the last dance, the last chance
For hearts of stone
If there was something, baby, that I could do
Something that would last, honey, I would
But you should know better than to think that you
Can return to the past
So close your eyes and I'll be there
Hold you once more,not go anywhere
I wish I could, babe
But I can't talk now, I'm not alone
So put your ear close to the phone
This is the last dance, the last chance
For hearts of stone
And you cry because things get so strange so fast
And you cry because nothing good ever lasts
Well, I know babe
Yes, I know, babe
But I can't talk now, I'm not alone
So put your ear close to the phone
'Cause this is the last dance, the last chance
For hearts of stone
This is the last dance, the last chance
For hearts of stone

I Don't Want To Go Home
(S. Van Zandt)
Oh, I know that it's getting late
But I don't want to go home
I'm in no hurry baby time can wait
'Cause I don't want to go home
Listen to the man sing his song
I don't want to go home
I don't mind if it takes all night long
'Cause I don't want to go home
Listen, baby, I know we had to try
To reach up and touch the sky, baby
Whatever happened to you and I
That I don't want to go home?
Lord, look at how all the people stare
Said I don't want to go home
In their minds I know they've all been there
I don't want to go home
I know the words to this song are real
But, oh, I don't want to go home
I know he's talking 'bout the way I feel
And I don't want to go home
Listen, baby, I know we had to try
To reach up and touch the sky, baby
Whatever happened to you and I
That I don't want to go home?
I want to hear people laughing and having a good time
I want to know why she told me she had to go
Why did she leave me lonely?
I know that it's time to go
But I don't want to go home
You can play play your blues, play 'em soft and low
'Cause I don't want to go home
I know the words to this song are real
But, oh, I don't want to go home
I know he's talking 'bout the way I feel
And I don't want to go home
I don't want to go, believe me, darling
I don't want to go home
Don't wanna be all alone
I don't want to go home, baby
Ain't nobody waitin' at home
Baby, won't you please come home
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, won't you please come home?

I'm So Anxious
(B. Rush)
Won't you come to Florida for a vacation?
The tan developer beckons from the television
They know they got me because I'm an insomniac
Records, detergents, here's the latest Pontiac
The got me so conditioned now that
When they talk I just react
Why they throwing it all at me?
I'm so
I'm so
I'm so anxious
Hard sell pressure got to keep the motor running
Stimulate your need to satisfy something
You don't want to be the one who never gets in line
You don't want to be the one who's always left behind
Pick up that phone you're running out of time
Why they throwing it all at me?
I'm so
I'm so
I'm so anxious
I'm so
I'm so
I'm so anxious
I know you're worrying what will the people say?
I know you're worrying you've got bills to pay
Worrying will the backwash get you?
The undertow drag you out?
You don't want to be the one who never gets in line
You don't want to be the one who's always left behind
Pick up that phone, quick you're running out of time
Why they throwing it all at me?
Why they throwing it all at me?
Why they throwing it all at me?
I'm so
I'm so
I'm so anxious
I'm so
I'm so
I'm so anxious

Living In The Real World
(B. Rush)
I know there is a day without headlines
Where profit won't intertwine
With somebody's pain
We know there is hurt behind the laughter
The sting lingers after
Whoa for such a long time
And one crazy fool laughing at the newsreel
Watching as the citizens steal
It's such a riot downtown
Living in the real world
Living in the real world
Every day in the real world
Finds a way to remind me
I roam living in a wolf pack
Getting my fingers snapped
Whenever I reach out
And if I - if I ever stumble
I'll feel their warm breath
Nuzzling death in my ear
Living in the real world
Living in the real world
Every day in the real world
Finds a way to remind me
Passions turned to worthless litter
Dot the shores of human rivers
The tide just keeps on sweeping me along
Living in the real world
Left so weak 'cause the love she handled every day
Time slowly ate away
And it's a mouth that's forever hungry
And it's too late, the deck was already stacked
She thought she had love down pat
Till the ace jumped out of the hole
She's living in the real world
Living in the real world
Every day in the real world
Finds a way to remind me
Living in the real world
Living in the real world
We're all living in the real world

It Hurts
(B. Rush)
Ask me why I feel like crying
Tell me what I've done to you
Listen, don't turn away
Cause I'm in love with you
Because it hurts, because it hurts
Because it hurts, because it hurts
Oh, you got to got to stop
Any kind of situation
Any kind of complication
Is better than the day you had enough of me
Because it hurts, because it hurts
Because it hurts, because it hurts
Oh, you got to got to stop
I can beat the world any day
It doesn't mean that much to me
But a single word from you
And baby, I am destroyed
Ask me why I feel so lonely
Tell me why you act so cold
How can you treat me so unkind
When I love you
Because it hurts, because it hurts
Because it hurts, because it hurts
Oh, you got to got to stop
Baby, because
Baby, because
Ooh, because it hurts

On The Beach
(B. Rush)
I know a place where we gotta go
Baby, come on, come on, hurry up let's go
No more grind in the daily gruel
Draining the life out of me
No more work and no more rules
Only one place to be
On the beach, on the beach, on the beach
I can't stand this place cause it's such a bore
I just got to escape get to the shore
Got The King on the radio
Gotta feel the sun on my back
Weekend's here and I'm ready to go
Never never gonna look back
On the beach, on the beach, on the beach
Got The King on the radio
Gotta feel the sun on my back
I know if I don't break out soon
Gonna have a heart attack
On the beach
On the beach
On the beach
On the beach
On the beach
On the beach
On the beach
On the beach
On the beach

Restless Heart
(B. Rush/J. Lyon)
She don't really know what she's looking for
When she goes out at night
But she feels there's a place somewhere
The lights shine twice as bright
She hopes that tonight things will turn out the way
That she thinks they should
But she knows deep down nothing could ever be that good
Whoa whoa whoa she's got a restless heart
Whoa whoa whoa she's got a restless, she's got a restless
Oh, she's got a restless heart
She tried all the boys in the neighborhood
They just let her down
So she tried all the girls who always used
To want to hang around
They said - whoa whoa whoa she's got a restless heart
Whoa whoa whoa she's got a restless, she's got a restless
Oh, she's got a restless heart
And in the night, she lays and cries herself to sleep
It isn't right, it isn't right
How could love
How could love
How could love
How could love
How could love
How could love
How could love
How could love
How could love
How could love
Be so cheap?
Someday, I know, she's gonna let me in and it'll be alright
I'm gonna give her what she needs and she's gonna sleep at night
Until that day I know a lot of pain's gonna come her way
There's more to life than just living and more to love than play
Whoa whoa whoa she's got a restless heart
Whoa whoa whoa she's got a restless, she's got a restless
Oh, she's got a restless heart
She's got a restless heart
She's got a restless heart
She's got a restless heart
She's got a restless heart
She's got a restless heart
She's got a restless heart

Vertigo
(B. Rush)
What is the force
Pulling me like gravity?
Into your world
I'm swirling inescapably
Tangling my tongue
When I try to speak
Caught up in confusion
Leaving me so weak
The earth below drags me down
I'm grabbing on to air
When I go to reach out
I don't like these heights
But you don't ever let me down
Will you girl
I want you so, I'm falling, falling vertigo
Won't you come closer
I feel secure when you're near
Don't take me so high
I cannot breath in this atmosphere
Hold me tight
I'm in the iron group of fear
Stay at my side
The drop is so sheer
You move in light years
And I can barely crawl
What seems like forever
Is no real time at all
If I look down, I know, I know I'm gonna fall
All the way, girl
I need you so, I'm falling, falling vertigo, vertigo
Every night
I'm hounded by this one dream
You speak
But I never know what the words mean
Until it's too late
And I feel my foot slip
Eyes shut tight
I know I'm in the grip
Then my fingers
One by one
Loosen their hold
Become undone
It pulls so hard
I must succumb
You know what it is
Round I go, spinning and whirling
Round I go, vision is blurring
Round I go, falling, falling
Vertigo
Vertigo
Vertigo

Why Is Love Such A Sacrifice
(B. Rush)
Here I am once again giving everything that I have
Wrapped up in a love and just getting out of the last
There's gotta be somebody who will always be there and pull you out
Love is a full time job that you can't live without
You take your faith and you put it in me
I open my heart, I give you the key
You build up trust by stripping down pride
To get to the truth, you got to clear the way
Why is love such a sacrifice?
Why is love such a sacrifice?
In the school of love, everyday there's a test
Is it better or worse or just the same as all the rest?
It can be so hot it can burn through your life
It's the only sure way through bad times and strife
It's no fun alone, so everybody wants it
The cost is high but you'll pay the price
Why is love such a sacrifice?
Why is love such a sacrifice?
