Lyrics

• 1. Runaway

  On the street where you live girls talk about their social lives
  Theyre made of lipstick, plastic and paint, a touch of sable in their eyes
  All your life all youve asked whens 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.

  Chorus:
  Ooh, shes a little runaway.
  Daddys girl learned fast
  All those things he couldnt say.
  Ooh, shes 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 theres nothing left that you can do
  Theres 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 dont really mind, its only love she hoped to find

  Repeat chorus

  No one heard a single word she said
  They should have seen it in your eyes
  What was going around your heart

  Ooh, shes a little runaway
  Daddys girl learned fast
  All those things he couldnt say

  Ooh, shes a little runaway
  Daddys girl learned fast
  Now she works the night away

  Ooh, shes a little runaway
  Daddys girl learned fast
  All those things he couldnt say

  Ooh, shes a little runaway
  Daddys girl learned fast
  Now she was 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

  [Chorus:]
  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 damage 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

  [Repeat chorus x 2]

  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

  [Repeat chorus x 2]

• 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

  [Chorus:]
  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 doesn'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 would do
  If only you'd give me a chance

  [Repeat chorus]

• 4. Shot Through The Heart

  Would you be content to see me crying
  After all those little games you put me through
  After all I've done for you you're lying
  Wouldn't it be nice to tell the truth

  Didn't somebody somewhere say
  You're gonna take a fall
  I gave you everything
  Now here's the curtain call

  [Chorus:]
  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 live wire
  With nowhere left to turn
  You were gonna set the world on fire
  When will you ever learn?

  [Chorus]

  Didn't somebody somewhere say
  You're gonna take 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

  [Chorus]

• 5. Love Lies

  I was lost, then I found you
  Never thought it would be this way
  I showed you my heart, left it unguarded
  Like a thief in the night you stole it away

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

  Chorus:
  Love lies, youre just a victim of the headlines
  Youre running on into a cold night
  Youre just a number of the love lies

  All alone you call it survival
  He lost at love to a strangers 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

  Chorus

  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

  Chorus

• 6. Breakout

  This time girl Ive had enough
  Youre too hot to handle with kid gloves
  Its too late I hear a knock on the door
  The games over baby I cant take it no more

  Chorus:
  Breakout, breakout
  Take these chains from me
  You held my heart for ransom
  Baby, set it free
  Breakout, breakout
  Your lies cant hide what I see
  Im 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 its all in vain (whoa-oh)

  Chorus

  You say well meet around midnight
  Youre gonna make me feel oh so right
  Im saying oh no not tonight
  You gotta let me go

  Chorus

  You say well meet around midnight
  Youre gonna make me feel oh so right
  Im saying oh no not tonight
  You gotta let me go

• 7. Burning for Love

  Ive been lied to, you been cheated
  Ive been cried to, you been mistreated
  Ive been watching you, you want action
  You need love and I need satisfaction

  Chorus:
  Im burning for love
  Filled with desire
  I cant stand the heat
  And my hearts on fire
  I cant get enough
  Its down to the wire
  Im making my move, Im looking for you
  Im burning for love

  Youre the victim its in your eyes
  Im the suspect and loves the crime
  Tensions mounting bodies shaking
  I cant take the anticipation

  Chorus

  Now that I got you in my sight
  Cant take another sleepless night
  Oh, no, no
  You can run but you cant hide
  Youre the only one I need
  To feel the fire inside

  Chorus

• 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

  Chorus:
  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

  Chorus

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

  Chorus

• 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

  Chorus:
  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

  Chorus

  Come on
  Come on
