1. RUNAWAY

On the street where you live girls talk about their social lives.
They're made of lipstick, plastic and paint, a touch of sable in their eyes.

ALL YOUR LIFE All your life all you've asked when's your Daddy gonna talk to you.

You were living in another world tryin' to get your message through.

No one heard a single word you said.
They should have seen it in your eyes

what was going around your heart.

Ooh, she's a little runaway.
Daddy's girl learned fast

all those things he couldn't say.

Ooh, she's a little runaway.

A different line every night guaranteed to blow your mind.
See you out on the streets, call me for a wild time.

So you sit home alone 'cause there's nothing left that you can do.

There's only pictures hung in the shadows left there to look at you.

You know she likes the lights at nights on the neon Broadway signs
She don't really mind,

it's only love she hoped to find.

Ooh, she's a little runaway.
Daddy's girl learned fast

all those things he couldn't say.

Ooh, she's a little runaway.

No one heard a single word she said.
They should have seen it in your eyes

what was going around your heart.

Ooh, she's a little runaway.
Daddy's girl learned fast

all those things he couldn't say.

Ooh, she's a little runaway.
Daddy's girl learned fast,

now she works the night away.

Ooh, she's a little runaway.
Daddy's girl learned fast

all those things he couldn't say.

Ooh, she's a little runaway.
Daddy's girl learned fast,

now she works the night away.


2. ROULETTE

Bet the black comes in red, crimes of passion rule my head.
I need you, you want him, dressed to kill we live in sin.

I know the game you play, I know it well.
You just keep on playin' when all the bets are down.

Roulette ROULETTE you're goin' round in a spin,
caught up in a game you just can't win.

Roulette, you're just a fantasy.

It's everything that you want it to be.

Play the numbers one by one, fire the shot and the'd am age is done.
Restless lovers pay the price, cheating hearts don't think twice.

When you make the rules no one can slow you down,
you just keep 'em waiting when you're on the prowl.

Roulette ROULETTE you're goin' round in a spin,
caught up in a game you just can't win.

Roulette, you're just a fantasy.

It's everything that you want it to be.

Roulette ROULETTE you're goin' round in a spin,
caught up in a game you just can't win.

Roulette, you're just a fantasy.

It's everything that you want it to be.

Backdoor runner got away this time,
leaves her mark at the scene of the crime.

Nothing matters, no faces, no names,

you're just a number, it's all the same.

You just love to play the game.

I know the game you play, I know it well.
You just keep on playin' when all the bets are down.

Roulette ROULETTE you're goin' round in a spin,
caught up in a game you just can't win.

Roulette, you're just a fantasy.

It's everything that you want it to be.

Roulette ROULETTE you're goin' round in a spin,
caught up in a game you just can't win.

Roulette, you're just a fantasy.

It's everything that you want it to be.

 


3. SHE DON'T KNOW ME

What more can I do, there's nothing I haven't tried
Still it's so hard for her to notice

I've tried hard to be straight

There's nothing left I can say

If only she would look my way

She don't know me, she don't know
She don't see me, she don't care

She can't hear me,  can't hear

Can not help me, she don't want

She don't want me like I want her

Like I wan't her got to tell her

Got to tell her that I love her

That I love her

She don't even know my name

I dream of when she'll be mine
I dream of crossing that line

And holding her so tender

Dreaming it could come true

So many things I could do

If only you'd give me a chance

She don't know me, she don't know
She don't see me, she don't care

She can't hear me,  can't hear

Can not help me, she don't want

She don't want me like I want her

Like I wan't her got to tell her

Got to tell her that I love her

That I love her

She don't even know my name

 


4. SHOT THROUGH THE HEART

Would you bbe content to see me crying
After all those little games you put me through

After all you've done for you you're lying

Wouldn't it be nice to tell the truth

Didn't somebody somewhere say
You're heading for a fall

I gave you everything

Now here's the curtain call

Shot through the heart as I lay there alone
In the dark through the heart

It's all part of this game that we call love

Now you've come back here to say you're sorry
But I don't know who you're talking to

It could be the man I used to be, girl

But I've grown up and now I'm over you

Standing there just a livewire
With nowhere left to turn

You were gonna set the world on fire

When will you ever learn?

Shot through the heart as I lay there alone
In the dark through the heart

It's all part of this game that we call love

Didn't somebody somewhere say
You're heading for a fall

I gave you everything

Now here's the curtain call

And I'm shot...

Baby does what baby please
And baby must have what she sees

But not this time, the tables turned

Baby, you just got burned

Shot through the heart as I lay there alone
In the dark through the heart

It's all part of this game that we call love

 


5. LOVE LIES

I was lost, then I found you.
I never thought it would be this way.

Showed you my heart, I left it unguarded,

like a thief in the night you stole it away.

Now you're gone, the pain goes on and on.
I still hear you whispering to me through the shadows of the night.

Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines.
You're running on into a cold night.

You're just a number of the love lies.

All alone you call it survival,
he lost at love to a stranger's lines.

Walking the streets, searching with vengeance

for a face that he dreams of night after night.

Time goes on, all signs of life stolen, simple dreams were all broken.
Best of times become desperation but how many tears must you cry to survive?

Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines.
You're running on into a cold night.

Just a number of the love lies.

Love lies, you're just another victim of the headlines.
You're running on into a cold night.

Just a number of the love lies.

They met late one night in the city.
Both men knew only one would stay.

Scratched a picture of a heart on a bullet

and took his life away.

Love lies, you're just another victim of the headlines.
You're running on into a cold night.

Just a number of the love lies.

Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines.
You're running on into a cold night.

Just a number of the love lies.

 


6. BREAKOUT

This time girl I've had enough
You're too hot to handle with kid gloves

It's too late I hear a knock on the door

The game's over baby I can't take

It no more

Breakout, Breakout
Take these chains from me

You held my heart for ransom

Baby, set it free

Breakout, Breakout

Your lies can't hide what I see

I'm better off on my own

Promises made me in the heat of the night (Whoa-oh-oh)
Those words were broken under bedroom lights (Whoa-oh)

Your lips they burn your body calls my name (Whoa-oh)

I can feel the fire but it's all in vain (Whoa-oh)

Breakout, Breakout
Take these chains from me

You held my heart for ransom

Baby, set it free

Breakout, Breakout

Your lies can't hide what I see

I'm better off on my own

You say we'll meet around midnight
You're gonna make me feel oh so right

I'm saying oh no not tonight

You gotta let me go

Breakout, Breakout
Take these chains from me

You held my heart for ransom

Baby, set it free

Breakout, Breakout

Your lies can't hide what I see

I'm better off on my own

You say we'll meet around midnight
You're gonna make me feel oh so right

I'm saying oh no not tonight

You gotta let me go

 
 


7. BURNING FOR LOVE

I've been lied to, you been cheated
I've been cried to, you been mistreated

I've been watching you, you want action

You need love and I need satisfaction

I'm burning for love
Filled with desire

I can't stand the heat

My heart's on fire

I can't get enough

It's down to the wire

Making my move, I'm looking for you

I'm burning for love

You're the victim it's in your eyes
I'm the suspect ond love's the crime

Tensions mounting bodies shaking

I can't take the anticipation

I'm burning for love
Filled with desire

I can't stand the heat

My heart's on fire

I can't get enough

It's down to the wire

Making my move, I'm looking for you

I'm burning for love

Now that I got you in my sight
Can't take another sleepless night

Oh, no, no

You can run but you can't hide

You're the only one I need

To feel the fire inside

I'm burning for love
Filled with desire

I can't stand the heat

My heart's on fire

I can't get enough

It's down to the wire

Making my move, I'm looking for you

I'm burning for love

 
 


8. COME BACK

Now that you're gone, I can see what
Was going on and how you lied

When you'd said you'd never love again

Friends telephone and they say
You weren't out alone last night

Can't you see that this broken heart

Is killing me

Another night is falling
And now my heart is calling you back to me

Come back cause I need your love
Come back got to have your love

Come back bring your loving back to me

Come back cause it's been so long

Come back, and my love's still strong

Come back bring your loving back to me

You play with words play with love
It's just your silly way

I'm a fool cause I need you by my side again

Now it's too late you walk by
With another man

And I stand alone

Cause I know that you're not coming home

Another night is falling
And now my heart is calling you back to me

Come back cause I need your love
Come back got to have your love

Come back bring your loving back to me

Come back cause it's been so long

Come back, and my love's still strong

Come back bring your loving back to me

Another night is falling
And now my heart is calling you back to me

Come back cause I need your love
Come back got to have your love

Come back bring your loving back to me

Come back cause it's been so long

Come back, and my love's still strong

Come back bring your loving back to me

 
 


9. GET READY

You need someone to make it last
No Romeos who'll love and leave you fast

They fade away

Tonight you're not gonna be alone

Making love on the telephone

Baby, baby if you can hold on

I'm gonna take you all the way tonight

I like'em down and dirty, hold on tight

Come on get ready
Come on get ready

You're looking sharp in your dancing shoes
You got the style and you got the moves

Oh you're so hot, girl and on the loose

You're caught up in a danger zone

Just seventeen but you act full grown

The nightlife is turning you on

You want to take me all the way tonight

Take my hand, you can feel the heat

Make you feel alright

Come on get ready
Come on get ready

Come on
Come on
