Such A Shame (1984)

Lyrics

Such a shame to believe in escape
A life on every face
And that’s a change
‘Til I’m finally left with an eight
Tell me to relax, I just stare
Maybe I don’t know if I should change
A feeling that we share
It’s a shame

(Such a shame)
Number me with rage, it’s a shame
(Such a shame)
Number me in haste (such a shame)
This eagerness to change
It’s a shame

The dice decide my fate
And that’s a shame
In these trembling hands
My faith tells me to react, I don’t care
Maybe it’s unkind that I should change
A feeling that we share
It’s a shame

(Such a shame)
Number me with rage, it’s a shame
(Such a shame)
Number me in haste (such a shame)
This eagerness to change
Such a shame
Tell me to relax, I just stare
Maybe I don’t know if I should change
A feeling that we share
It’s a shame

(Such a shame)
Number me with rage, it’s a shame
(Such a shame)
Number me in haste
(Such a shame)
Write it across my name, it’s a shame
(Such a shame)
Number me in haste (such a shame)
This eagerness to change

Such a shame

Life’s What You Make It (1986)

Lyrics

Baby, life’s what you make it
Can’t escape it
Baby, yesterday’s favourite
Don’t you hate it

Everything’s all right
Life’s what you make it
Everything’s all right

Baby, life’s what you make it
Don’t back date it
Baby, don’t try to shade it
Beauty is naked

Everything’s all right
Life’s what you make it
Everything’s all right
Life’s what you make it

Baby

Baby, life’s what you make it
Celebrate it
Anticipate it
Yesterday’s faded
Nothing can change it
Life’s what you make it

Everything’s all right
Life’s what you make it
Everything’s all right
Life’s what you make it
Everything’s all right

Ye… ah
Everything’s all right

It´s My Life (1983)

Lyrics

Funny how I find myself in love with you
If I could buy my reasoning I’d pay to lose
One half won’t do
I’ve asked myself, how much do you
Commit yourself

It’s my life
Don’t you forget
It’s my life
It never ends (it never ends)

Funny how I blind myself, I never knew
If I was sometimes played upon, afraid to lose
I’d tell myself, what good do you do
Convince myself

It’s my life
Don’t you forget
It’s my life
It never ends (it never ends)

I’ve asked myself, how much do you
Commit yourself?

It’s my life
Don’t you forget
Caught in the crowd
It never ends

It’s my life
Don’t you forget
Caught in the crowd
It never ends

It’s my life
Don’t you forget
Caught in the crowd
It never ends

Living In Another World (1986)

Lyrics

Better parted
I see people crying
Truth gets harder
There’s no sense in lying
Help me find a way from this maze
I can’t help myself
When I see tenderness before you left (Forget)
That even breaking up was never meant (Forget)
But only angels look before they tread (Forget)
Living in another world to you
Living in another world to you
Living in another world to you
Better parted
I see people hiding
Speech gets harder
There’s no sense in writing
Help me find a way from this maze
I can’t help myself
When I see tenderness before you left (Forget)
That even breaking up was never meant (Forget)
But only angels look before they tread (Forget)
Living in another world to you
Living in another world to you
Living in another world to you
Help me find a way from this maze
I’m living in another world to you and I can’t help myself
Did I see tenderness where you saw Hell? (Forget)
Did I see angels in the hand I held? (Forget)
God only knows what kind of tale you’d tell (Forget)
Living in another world to you
Living in another world to you
Living in another world to you
