Tommy used to work on the docks Union's been on strike, he's down on his luck It's tough, so tough Gina works the diner all day Working for her man, she brings home her pay For love, for love She says: We've got to hold on to what we've got It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not We've got each other and that's a lot For love, we'll give it a shot Whoa, we're halfway there Oh-oh, living on a prayer Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear Oh-oh, living on a prayer Tommy's got his six string in hock Now he's holding in what he used to make it talk So tough, it's tough Gina dreams of running away When she cries in the night, Tommy whispers Baby, it's okay, someday We've got to hold on to what we've got It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not We've got each other and that's a lot For love, we'll give it a shot Whoa, we're halfway there Oh-oh, living on a prayer Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear Oh-oh, living on a prayer Living on a prayer Ooh, we've got to hold on, ready or not You live for the fight when that's all that you've got Whoa, we're halfway there Oh-oh, living on a prayer Take my hand and we'll make it, I swear Oh-oh, living on a prayer Whoa, we're halfway there Oh-oh, living on a prayer Take my hand and we'll make it, I swear Oh-oh, living on a prayer Whoa, we're halfway there Oh-oh, living on a prayer Take my hand

Two worlds collide Rival nations It's a primitive clash Venting years of frustrations Bravely we hope Against all hope There is so much at stake Seems our freedom's up Against the ropes Does the crowd understand? Is it East versus West Or man against man Can any nation stand alone In the burning Heart Just about to burst There's a quest for answers An unquenchable thirst In the darkest night Rising like a spire In the burning heart The unmistakable fire In the burning heart In the warriors code There's no surrender Though his body says stop His spirit cries, never! Deep in our soul A quiet ember Know it's you against you It's the paradox That drives us on It's a battle of wills In the heat of attack It's the passion that kills The victory is yours alone In the burning Heart Just about to burst There's a quest for answers An unquenchable thirst In the darkest night Rising like a spire In the burning heart The unmistakable fire In the burning Heart Just about to burst There's a quest for answers An unquenchable thirst In the darkest night Rising like a spire In the burning heart The unmistakable fire In the burning Heart Just about to burst There's a quest for answers An unquenchable thirst In the darkest night Rising like a spire In the burning heart The unmistakable fire In the burning heart

Never Enough 03:28
I'm tryin' to hold my breath Let it stay this way, can't let this moment end You set off a dream in me Gettin' louder now, can you hear it echoing? Take my hand, will you share this with me? 'Cause darling without you All the shine of a thousand spotlights All the stars we steal from the night sky Will never be enough Never be enough Towers of gold are still too little These hands could hold the world but it'll Never be enough Never be enough For me Never, never Never, never Never for me, for me Never enough Never enough Never enough For me, for me, for me All the shine of a thousand spotlights All the stars we steal from the night sky Will never be enough Never be enough Towers of gold are still too little These hands could hold the world but it'll Never be enough Never be enough For me Never, never Never, never Never for me, for me Never enough (never, never) Never enough (never, never) Never enough For me, for me, for me For me

Africa 04:30
I hear the drums echoing tonight But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation She's coming in twelve thirty flight The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation I stopped an old man along the way Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies He turned to me as if to say Hurry, boy, it's waiting there for you! It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I bless the rains down in Africa Gonna take some time to do the things we never had The wild dogs cry out in the night As they grow restless longing for some solitary company I know that I must do what's right Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti I seek to cure what's deep inside Frightened of this thing that I've become It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I bless the rains down in Africa Gonna take some time to do the things we never had Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I bless the rains down in Africa I bless the rains down in Africa I bless the rains down in Africa I bless the rains down in Africa I bless the rains down in Africa Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

Rosanna 05:41
All I wanna do when I wake up in the morning is see you eyes Rosanna, Rosanna I never thought that a girl like you could ever care for me, Rosanna All I wanna do in the middle of the evening is hold you tight Rosanna, Rosanna I didn't know you were looking for more than I could ever be Not quite a year since she went away, Rosanna Now she's gone and I have to say Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna I can see your face still shining through the window on the otherside, Rosanna, Rosanna I didn't know that a girl like you could make me feel so sad, Rosanna All I wanna tell you is now you'll never ever have to compromise Rosanna, Rosanna I never thought that losing you could ever hurt so bad Not quite a year since she went away, Rosanna Now she's gone and I have to say Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna Not quite a year since she went away, Rosanna Who is it? Now she's gone and I have to say Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna

Gethsemane 05:39
I only want to say If there is a way Take this cup away from me For I don't want to taste its poison Feel it burn me I have changed I'm not as sure As when we started Then, I was inspired Now, I'm sad and tired Listen, surely I've exceeded expectations Tried for three years, seems like thirty Could you ask as much from any other man? But if I die See the saga through And do the things you ask of me Let them hate me, hit me Hurt me, nail me to their tree I'd want to know, I'd want to know, My God I'd want to know, I'd want to know, My God I'd want to see, I'd want to see, My God I'd want to see, I'd want to see, My God Why I should die Would I be more noticed than I ever was before? Would the things I've said and done matter any more? I'd have to know, I'd have to know, my Lord I'd have to know, I'd have to know, my Lord I'd have to see, I'd have to see, my Lord I'd have to see, I'd have to see, my Lord If I die what will be my reward? If I die what will be my reward? I'd have to know, I'd have to know, my Lord I'd have to know, I'd have to know, my Lord Why should I die? Oh, why should I die? Can you show me now that I would not be killed in vain? Show me just a little of your omnipresent brain Show me there's a reason for your wanting me to die You're far to keen on where and how, but not so hot on why Alright, I'll die! Just watch me die! See how I die! Then I was inspired Now, I'm sad and tired After all, I've tried for three years, seems like ninety Why then am I scared to finish what I started What you started - I didn't start it God, thy will is hard But you hold every card I will drink your cup of poison Nail me to your cross and break me Bleed me, beat me Kill me, take me, now! Before I change my mind!

Nightime sharpens, heightens each sensation Darkness stirs and wakes imagination Silently the senses abandon their defenses Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendour Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender Turn your face away From the garish light of day Turn your thoughts away from cold Unfeeling light And listen to the music of the night Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar And you'll live as you've never lived before Softly, deftly, music shall caress you Hear it, fell it, secretly posess you Open up your mind Let your fantasies unwind In this darkness that you know you cannot fight The darkness of the music of the night Let your mind start a journey to a strange new world Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before Let your soul take you where you long to be Only then can you belong to me Floating, falling, sweet intoxication Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation Let the dream begin Let your darker side give in To the power of the music that I write The power of the music of the night You alone Can make my song take flight Help me make the music of the night

For All 03:32
For all the things I wanted to become And all the things I could have been For waiting for the writing on the wall So long For all the things I had and lost again For every time I failed to lift your name In the night Lord almighty Come pour your mercy down on me Holy glory For all For all the things I wanted in my own name And all the filth my eyes have seen For hiding when I ought be walking thru For everything you wanted me to be For all the love you pray that I may see In you God of david I want to lower my defenses Pour your mercy down on me For all God almighty It wasn't you who wanted war But you won it For all For now and ever more Cause you won it over Once And once For all

Numb 03:03
I'm tired of being what you want me to be Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface I don't know what you're expecting of me Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes (Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow) Every step that I take is another mistake to you (Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow) I've become so numb, I can't feel you there Become so tired, so much more aware I'm becoming this, all I want to do Is be more like me and be less like you Can't you see that you're smothering me? Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control 'Cause everything that you thought I would be Has fallen apart right in front of you (Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow) Every step that I take is another mistake to you (Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow) And every second I waste is more than I can take I've become so numb, I can't feel you there Become so tired, so much more aware I'm becoming this, all I want to do Is be more like me and be less like you And I know I may end up failing too But I know you were just like me With someone disappointed in you I've become so numb, I can't feel you there Become so tired, so much more aware I'm becoming this, all I want to do Is be more like me and be less like you I've become so numb, I can't feel you there (I'm tired of being what you want me to be) I've become so numb, I can't feel you there (I'm tired of being what you want me to be)

Faster 04:22
I can't sleep ‘cause its burning deep inside Like gasoline on fire running wild No more fear ‘cause I'm getting closer now So unreal but I like it anyhow I go faster and faster and faster And faster and faster and faster and faster And I can't live in a fairytale of lies And I can't hide from the feeling ‘cause it's right And I go faster and faster and faster and faster for life I can't live in a fairytale of lies I can feel that you mesmerize my heart I feel so free, I'm alive, I'm breaking out I won't give in, ‘cause I'm proud of all my scars And I can see I've been wasting too much time I go faster and faster and faster and faster and faster and faster and faster I go faster and faster and faster And faster and faster and faster and faster And I can't live in a fairytale of lies And I can't hide from the feeling ‘cause it's right And I go faster and faster and faster and faster for life I can't live in a fairytale of lies And I can't live in a fairytale of lies And I can't hide from the feeling ‘cause it's right And I go faster and faster and faster and faster for life I can't live in a fairytale of lies A fairytale of lies!

Far, far beyond the island We dwelt in shades of twilight Through dread and weary days Through grief and endless pain It lies unknown The land of mine A hidden gate To save us from the shadow fall The lord of water spoke In the silence words of wisdom I've seen the end of all Be aware the storm gets closer Mirror, mirror on the wall True hope lies beyond the coast You're a damned kind, can't you see That the winds will change? Mirror, mirror on the wall True hope lies beyond the coast You're a damned kind, can't you see That tomorrow bears insanity? Gone's the wisdom of a thousand years A world in fire, in chains and fear Leads me to a place so far Deep down it lies my secret vision I'll better keep it safe Shall I leave my friends alone Hidden in my twilight hall I know the world is lost in fire Sure there is no way to turn it Back to the old days Of bliss and cheerful laughter We're lost in barren lands Caught in the running flames Alone How shall we leave the lost road? Time's getting short so follow me A leader's task so clearly To find a path out of the dark Mirror, mirror on the wall True hope lies beyond the coast You're a damned kind, can't you see That the winds will change? Mirror, mirror on the wall True hope lies beyond the coast You're a damned kind, can't you see That the winds will change? Even though The storm calmed down The bitter end Is just a matter of time Shall we dare the dragon? Merciless he's poisoning our hearts Our hearts How shall we leave the lost road? Time's getting short so follow me A leader's task so clearly To find a path out of the dark Mirror, mirror on the wall True hope lies beyond the coast You're a damned kind, can't you see That the winds will change? Mirror, mirror on the wall True hope lies beyond the coast You're a damned kind, can't you see That the winds will change?

Valhalla 04:35
High in the sky where eagles fly Morgray, the dark enters the throne Open wide the gate, friend The king will come Blow the horn and praise the highest lord who'll bring the dawn He's the new god in the palace of steel Persuade the fate of everyone The chaos can begin, let it in So many centuries, so many gods We were the prisoners of our own fantasy But now we are marching against these gods I'm the wizard, I will change it all Valhalla, deliverance Why've you ever forgotten me? Valhalla, deliverance Why've you ever forgotten me? Valhalla, deliverance Why've you ever forgotten me? Oh, Valhalla Valhalla, deliverance Why've you ever forgotten me? Valhalla, deliverance Why've you ever forgotten me? Valhalla, deliverance Why've you ever forgotten me? Oh, Valhalla Magic is in me, I'm the lost magic man Never found what I was looking for Now I found it but it's lost The fortress burns, broken my heart I leave this world, all gods are gone So many centuries, so many gods We were the prisoners of our own fantasy But then we had nothing to lead our life No, no, we can't live without gods Valhalla, deliverance Why've you ever forgotten me? Valhalla, deliverance Why've you ever forgotten me? Valhalla Oh, Valhalla Valhalla, deliverance Why've you ever forgotten me? Valhalla, deliverance Why've you ever forgotten me?

People are in big confusion They don't like their constitutions Everyday they draw conclusions And they're still prepared for war Some can say what's ineffective Some make up themselves attractive Build up things they call protective Well, your life seems quite bizarre In the sky a mighty eagle Doesn't care 'bout what's illegal On its wings the rainbow's light It's flying to eternity Eagle, fly free Let people see Just make it your own way Leave time behind Follow the sign Together, we'll fly someday Hey, we think so supersonic And we make our bombs atomic Or the better quite neutronic But the poor don't see a dime Nowadays the air's polluted Ancient people persecuted That's what mankind contributed To create a better time In the sky a mighty eagle Doesn't care 'bout what's illegal On its wings the rainbow's light It's flying to eternity Eagle, fly free Let people see Just make it your own way Leave time behind Follow the sign Together, we'll fly someday Together, we'll fly someday Forever, we'll fly Together, we'll fly Forever, we'll fly someday

We saw the Writings on the wall When heathens ruled Above us all Tormented We still heard the call You come to bring us down Wield the scepter Steal the crown Time on the throne is running out 'Cause seasons change But we are still the same Even though the cold winds Blow our fire burns the same Hearts on fire Hearts on fire Burning Burning with desire Hearts on fire Hearts on fire Burning Burning with desire Hearts on fire Hearts on fire Burning Burning with desire Burning for the steel Hearts on fire For years shunned By society Outcasts, condemned For our beliefs Our legions grew in secrecy And now The time is here I see the templars everywhere The freedom call Is drawing near We hold our rebel Banners up with pride The colour's crimson and The hammer is the sign Hearts on fire Hearts on fire Hearts on fire Hearts on fire Hearts on fire Hearts on fire Burning Burning with desire Hearts on fire Hearts on fire Burning Burning with desire Hearts on fire Hearts on fire Burning Burning with desire Burning for the steel Hearts on fire Hearts on fire

Fire is raging on the battlefield While Arwald is fighting The war of the kings The army of Dargor The thunder, the storm So people are calling The brave and his sword No time left to save the wise throne! Shades of a past Not so far to forget The rise of the demons From their bloody hell! So come mighty warrior To light the last hope For Tharos the dragon And your cosmic soul Now handle your emerald sword! For Ancelot The ancient cross of war For the holy town of gods Gloria, gloria perpetua In this Dawn of Victory The ride of the dead And their practice of pain Is pounding in him As a terrific quake You're closer and closer Now follow the smell With your holy armor And the steel in your hand Fly angel of bloody revenge! For Ancelot The ancient cross of war For the holy town of gods Gloria, gloria perpetua In this Dawn of Victory Tragic and furious the clash Of the steel of the gods That so magic the power The sword in his valorous hands Oceans of fire are blasting The throne of the demons And from distant red skies And thunders are calling his name The name of the master of pain For Ancelot The ancient cross of war For the holy town of gods Gloria, gloria perpetua In this Dawn of Victory Gloria, gloria perpetua In this Dawn of Victory!

And who are you, the proud lord said That I must bow so low? Only a cat of a different coat That’s all the truth I know In a coat of gold or a coat of red A lion still has claws And mine are long and sharp, my lord As long and sharp as yours And so he spoke, and so he spoke That lord of Castamere But now the rains weep o’er his hall With no one there to hear Yes now the rains weep o’er his hall And not a soul to hear
