Pleasure’s in my car
Even in the bars I’m
searching
In love that’s strong, I’m
learning
(I am learning)
Pleasures in the sand
Warm within the hand she’s holding.
It is on the screen
Adventures at nineteen, I’m
searching
I am searching in my heart
Pleasure in my heart
Never let us part for
pleasure
Work, work today
Never let them pay for
pleasure
Leave or lose her from my
heart.
Pleasure is your name
I accept the blame for
falling
It is down the phone
Living in your home, I’m
calling
(I am calling)
Pleasure is a word
When love is left unheard,
its burning
It is on the screen
Adventures at nineteen, I’m
searching
I am searching in my heart
Why do you feel like
breaking my heart?
What made you feel like
breaking my heart tonight?
Now I am crying, now I am
crying
Now I am crying, now I am
crying
Pleasure in my heart
Never let us part for
pleasure
Work, work today
Never let them pay for
pleasure
Leave or lose her from my
heart.

Communication always leaves me incomplete
The grass is greener but it’s grown beneath my feet
Love inspiration is a message on a wing
But I have left it in the words you’ll never sing
Communication let me down
And I’m left here
Communication let me down
And I’m left here
Again
Telex or tell me but it’s always second hand
I’m incognito but no rendez-vous been planned
Dictate or relay I could send it to your home
“Return to sender” I could sing it down the phone
I’m sitting by the telephone
Waiting for the bell to ring
Short changed fumble
Dial-a-heart trouble
And I ain’t got time for searching through the rubble
Communication let me down
And I’m left here
Communication let me down
And I’m left here
Again

He put so much into her life
She took so much out of his
It was a crucial assignment
No one ever asked for this
It was a little confusing
He thought he knew what to
do
But now their walking in
silence
Little girl and soldier blue
Well she wrote you a song
saying that she approved
But you didn’t understand
And when love comes along
it’s just a catcher in the rye
It’s hard to make those long
term plans.
Well it’s the code of love
You don’t understand her
Well it’s the code of love
You could never ask for more
You could never ask for more
They made a certain
agreement
He’s bound to do what he’s
told
He ran back home with the
message
Screwed up in a pocket cold
She sat at home with her
reason
A sour note and a tear
But love comes home for the
season
Breaking down the walls of
fear.
Well it’s the code of love
You don’t understand her
Well it’s the code of love
You could never ask for more
You could never ask for more

Thank you for coming home
I’m sorry that the chairs are all worn
I left them here I could have sworn
These are my salad days
Slowly being eaten away
Just another Play For Today
Oh but I’m proud of you, but I’m proud of you
There’s nothing left to make me feel small
Luck has left me standing so tall
Gold
Always believe in your soul
You’ve got the power to know
You’re indestructible
Always believe in, because you are
Gold
Glad that you’re bound to return
There’s something I could have learned
You’re indestructible, always believe in
After the rush has gone
I hope you find a little more time
Remember we were partners in crime
It’s only two years ago
The man with the suit and the pace
You know that he was there on the case
Now he’s in love with you, he’s in love with you
And my love is like a high prison wall
But you could leave me standing so tall
Gold
Always believe in your soul
You’ve got the power to know
You’re indestructible
Always believe in, because you are
Gold
Glad that you’re bound to return
There’s something I could have learned
You’re indestructible, always believe in

Changing her colours she’s off to the shore
She rides the soul train and he fights the law
There’s power in his voice and it make her feel so sure
So live and let live in love
One day he’ll build a statue with his hands
So gentle when he tries to understand
This subterfuge he never really planned
Now you’re living in the lifeline
Exchanging their letters their exits begun
With deathless precision he’s aiming his gun
A democracy of sorts that justifies the sum
So live and let die in love
Neither has a ghost of a chance
Those decisions only can be made once
You never really know just what you’re giving
Till you’re living in the lifeline
He could have built a statue with his hands
So gentle when he tries to understand
You never really know just what you’re giving
Till you’re living in the lifeline
So live and let live in love…

She’ll sing a Westside song
You can be the boy in the film
Heaven is a secret
Oh heaven is a secret
Where are the west side boys
Fighting on the scaffold of love
Scripted pleasures made forever
Easier said than done together
Heaven is a secret
It’s a passion
It’s a long way over there
Far from her arms tonight
Heaven is a secret
It’s a passion
It’s a long way over there
Far from her arms tonight
Far from her arms tonight
Here is her model home
Listen to the call of the wild
Heaven is a secret
Heaven is a secret
Facts are an awful shame
The shadow of a doubtful affair
Scripted pleasures made forever
Easier said than done together
Heaven is a secret
It’s a passion
It’s a long way over there
Far from her arms tonight
Heaven is a secret
It’s a passion
It’s a long way over there
Far from her arms tonight
Far from her arms tonight
Act ones the same as you read in the book
Could this be the thing that they shout about
No more in distress, now it’s rushed through the door
And you can’t believe that the secret’s out
Scripted pleasures made forever
Easier said than done together.
Heaven is a secret
It’s a passion
It’s a long way over there
Far from her arms tonight
Heaven is a secret
It’s a passion
It’s a long way over there
Far from her arms tonight
Far from her arms tonight

Hello, this is me to you
It’s better now were coming through
And I don’t really know just who we are
I’ll stay here till my loves full up
So stir this cocktail shake me up
Drink me down and take me from the bar.
We’ll build a foundation,
build a foundation
build a foundation
you know we’re gonna build
build it up.
Spent the night in tumble down
A hundred mile from west of town
Plans were laid no compromise was made
Gentle up to meet the blue
Left a note and signed it True
Those construction games were all we played.
We’ll build a foundation,
build a foundation
build a foundation
you know we’re gonna build
build it up
oh I know you’re gonna give your best
so more or less gonna put it to the test
don’t you know you’ve got the whole world in your hands.
surrender up and lay down your arms
the fighting hurts but the loving calms
oh I know you’ve got the whole world in your arms
We’ll build a foundation,
build a foundation
build a foundation
you know we’re gonna build
build it up

So true
Funny how it seems
Always in time
But never in line for dreams
Head over heels, when toe to toe
This is the sound of my soul, this is the sound
I bought a ticket to the world
But now I’ve come back again
Why do I find it hard to write the next line
When I want the truth to be said
I know this much is true
With a thrill in my head
And a pill on my tongue
Dissolve the nerves that have just begun
Listening to Marvin all night long
This is the sound of my soul, this is the sound
Always slipping from my hands
Sand’s a time of it’s own
Take your seaside arms and write the next line
Oh I want the truth to be known
