NOBODY’S HOME (4:44)
(Subtitle: Weirdorama, Psychodome)

“If you’d like to make a call, please hang up and try again. If you need help, hang up and then dial the operator.”

just another day livin’ in a dream

weirdorama, psychodome

LIVING WITHOUT YOU (4:07)
(Subtitle: Don’t Flatter Yourself)

I walk the streets alone at night
a shadow in the city light
I didn’t know that love could hurt
how little broken hearts are worth

all that we had gone forever
things that we said it will never be
livin’ without you don’t bother me

if there’s a tear in my eye
it’s not for you
don’t flatter yourself
if there’s a tear in my eye
it’s not for you

we crossed our hearts and hoped to die
we swore that we would never lie
but love just slipped away somehow
baby, it’s all over now

all that we had gone forever
things that we said it will never be
livin’ without you don’t bother me

if there’s a tear in my eye
it’s not for you
don’t flatter yourself
if there’s a tear in my eye
it’s not for you

you seemed so innocent, you had me blinded
what good is all your beauty, there’s nothing behind it

(solo)

if there’s a tear in my eye
it’s not for you
don’t flatter yourself
if there’s a tear in my eye
it’s not for you

lock the door and cut the lights
I won’t be coming home tonight

see the skies thru misty eyes, your mind will open the door

I wanna know what you feel inside
I wanna know why you hide behind

the shadows of the way you were used to be
the ruins of a theory, an old idea

it’s time to say a different prayer
c’mon, c’mon, let’s go now

well, if you ask me I will tell you that it’s time now, baby
give me your hand, I promise love will take us home
there is a road and we will know it when we see it, maybe
it is the way to take us back where we belong
don’t fear, love will make us strong

I wanna know how you keep it up
I wanna know, know, know, know when you’ve had enough

you say that we’ve been here before, can’t you see
we never learn from history, obviously

there’s gotta be a better way
it’s time to say a different prayer
c’mon, c’mon, let’s go now

well, if you ask me I will tell you that it’s time now, baby
give me your hand, I promise love will take us home
there is a road and we will know it when we see it, maybe
it is the way to take us back where we belong
don’t fear, love will make us strong

don’t wanna see it, yet it opens up your mind
shine as bright as the midday sun

I didn’t mean to hurt you
can’t you see, we were meant to be
I din’t mean to hurt you, baby

I’m so sly, I’m a flirt, I’m untrue
whatever I say, don’t believe me
so you cry, so you hurt, so what’s new
whatever I do, you won’t leave me

caught in the act, lie my way out
give me the benefit when there’s no doubt
think that you knew right from the start
still you don’t wanna part

one more chance
I ask, one more chance

you and me, we were meant to be
I didn’t mean to hurt you
can’t you see, we were meant to be
I din’t mean to hurt you, baby
