The Edge 04:03
THE EDGE Some roads lead into the sunset But I’m not really sure where this one goes. Just like metal to a magnet Powers won’t let me say no And I’m On the Edge looking over On the Edge where dreams come true Ont the Edge thinking it over On the Edge of finding you. This confusion is just the moonlight casting shadows and moving tides. everything is louder in the night time but nothing is bigger than your eyes. And I’m On the Edge looking over On the Edge where dreams come true Ont the Edge thinking it over On the Edge of finding you.

In My Dreams 03:27
IN MY DREAMS Eyes closed, lights are out Projector switches on Rapid eye movement brings on visions before too long. Unpredictable entertainment The purest form I know The classic case of self-indulgence there really is no place I’d rather go I want to go there In My Dreams In My Dreams In My Dreams Am I asleep? Am I awake? It’s sometimes hard to say. I run through forests celebrating another perfect day Manifesting hidden pleasures You’re with me on the floor I feel your touch Your eyes are dancing and I want more of you I want you there In My Dreams In My Dreams In My Dreams But dreams fade when I wake up Yeah, real life just isn’t the same What seemed to be just breaks up Then I can’t remember your name I want to go there In My Dreams In My Dreams I can love you there In My Dreams In My Dreams In My Dreams

Real World 04:10
REAL WORLD Somewhere between the past and now Values changed, new things came down. Low ideals are passed around Hearts beat but make no sound. We just say This is the Real World Not quite make believe here in the Real World you see. Live in the Real World But don’t make believe this is the Real World for me. Corporate kings will play their games Hungry for power and slightly insane. Techno monsters leave their trace Until it’s too hard to escape The fact that This is the Real World Not quite make believe here in the Real World you see. Live in the Real World But don’t make believe this is the Real World for me. Heroes and villains measure fists And Sleeping Beauty’s never kissed. But there’s a movie in my mind not like this Where happy endings still exist. And I say This is the Real World Not quite make believe here in the Real World you see. Live in the Real World But don’t make believe this is the Real World for me.

ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN All those might-have-beens have left you feeling nowhere You’re nobody’s hero and it’s a jungle out there. You can turn your world around if you try You can catch you second wind and fly high Cause Anything Can Happen Anything can go your way Anything Can Happen Taking it day by day Anything Can Happen Everything can go your way Anything Can Happen Let your heart lead the way Love’s preconceptions are making you blind You’ll wait forever for that man in your mind. Leave logic at home look around with your feelings You may find your heart will send you reeling Anything Can Happen Anything can go your way Anything Can Happen Taking it day by day Anything Can Happen Everything can go your way Anything Can Happen Let your heart lead the way Just when it seems the world is turning against me Just when I just want to cry That’s when Anything Can Happen Anything can go my way Anything Can Happen Taking it day by day Anything Can Happen Everything can go my way Anything Can Happen Let my heart lead the way Anything Can Happen Anything can go your way Anything Can Happen Everything can go your way

All You Give 03:12
ALL YOU GIVE In a time when rules and roles are up for grabs The status quo with us remains intact. You go to the hills, I go to the sea But in our world, we always meet. All You Give can be hard to take If I take it for granted it’s my mistake. All You Give will make it hard to leave. All You Give is all I need The ties that bind - are they in my mind? Maybe I’ll figure it all out in time. Your subtile seductions form my addiction You know just what my love depends upon. All You Give can be hard to take If I take it for granted it’s my mistake. All You Give will make it hard to leave. All You Give is all I need

SIMPLER THINGS Maybe we live in this wilderness Waiting for prophets to come. Maybe we love to give forgiveness When we remember who’s around You are a dear friend to me… We’ll watch the Sun kiss the sea. Those Simpler Things Making our world go ‘round. Those Simpler Things Keeping our hearts off the ground. I’m taking a taxi uptown But riding the limo back home. Obstacles are never found Because determination’s strong. We’ve got so much to live for – We’ll watch our ship come into shore… Those Simpler Things Making our world go ‘round. Those Simpler Things Keeping our hearts off the ground. Maybe I watch the Moon too much Waiting for romance to come There’s so much music at night We’ll dance underneath the starlight… Those Simpler Things Making our world go ‘round. Those Simpler Things Keeping our hearts off the ground.

ANYTHING REAL Sometimes it’s hard to try and understand How things we love can trickle through our hands. Our hearts can make us open up and then We find ourselves just crying out again Is there Anything Real - anything at all? Is there Anything Real – does anybody know? Is there Anything Real - anything at all? Is there Anything Real – does anybody know? To hear them talk It makes us so confused They hide away, afraid of being used. To find ourselves we have to take a chance We look for love and then we have to ask Is there Anything Real - anything at all? Is there Anything Real – does anybody know? Is there Anything Real - anything at all? Is there Anything Real – does anybody know? You look at me with such expectant eyes But I can’t tell you where the future lies. The power of fate is beyond you and me Just take my hand and maybe soon we’ll see Is there Anything Real - anything at all? Is there Anything Real – does anybody know? Is there Anything Real - anything at all?

On the Moon 04:17
ON THE MOON Some soul told me just the other day “I can’t take this Earth no more I’m going away - Come and visit me On the Moon…. On the Moon.” I said “Celestial bodies are hard to penetrate And very few ever reach the stars Who knows how it goes On the Moon On the Moon Then he said “I’ve seen seagulls fly to the Moon Taking on a metallic sheen. I smelled the Moonflower’s sweet perfume When their god is smiling. On the Moon On the Moon He’s been many light years now And life isn’t the same since he’s gone. Is he sleeping sound On the Moon On the Moon. I think write him for the way there Cause it’s getting dirtier here and people don’t care If I love the man On the Moon On the Moon I’ll just say: “I’ve seen seagulls fly to the Moon Taking on a metallic sheen. I smelled the Moonflower’s sweet perfume When their god is smiling. On the Moon On the Moon.

HELLO, I LOVE YOU Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name? Hello, I love you, let me jump in your game Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name? Hello, I love you, let me jump in your game She's walking down the street Blind to every eye she meets Do you think you'll be the guy To make the queen of the angels sigh? Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name? Hello, I love you, let me jump in your game Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name? Hello, I love you, let me jump in your game She holds her head so high, like a statue in the sky Her arms are wicked, and her legs are long When she moves my brain screams out this song Sidewalk crouches at her feet Like a dog that begs for something sweet Do you hope to make her see you fool? Do you hope to pluck this dusky jewel? Hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello I want you, hello, I need my baby Hello, hello, hello, hello Songwriters: James Morrison / John Densmore / Ray Manzarek / Robby Krieger Hello, I Love You lyrics © Doors Music Company

Out of Sight 03:09
OUT OF SIGHT I got a picture following me I got a picture plain as can be. I got a picture stuck in my mind I got a picture I can’t leave behind. Ooooo, always thinking of you Ooooo, always thinking of you I got your picture to keep you around I’m on the fence you’ve been gone too long I got your picture and times are tough Love is blind but enough’s enough. Ooooo, always thinking of you Ooooo, always thinking of you You’re Out Of Sight but never out of mind. Why are you Out Of Sight but never out of mind. You leave me Out Of Sight but never out of mind. You’re always Out Of Sight but never out of mind. You tell soon you’ll come to your senses You tell it’s just the way romance is That’s okay - I’ll give you some time I want you here – not just in my mind. Ooooo, always thinking of you Ooooo, always thinking of you You’re Out Of Sight but never out of mind. Why are you Out Of Sight but never out of mind. You leave me Out Of Sight but never out of mind. You’re always Out Of Sight but never out of mind.
