Ticket to the moon (ELO) |
Remember the good old 1980s? When things were so uncomplicated? I wish I could go back there again And everything could be the same. Ive got a ticket to the moon Ill be leaving here any day soon Yeah, Ive got a ticket to the moon But Id rather see the sunrise in your eyes. Got a ticket to the moon Ill be rising high above the earth so soon And the tears I cry might turn into the rain That gently falls upon your window Youll never know. Chorus: Ticket to the moon (ticket to the moon) Ticket to the moon (ticket to the moon) Ticket to the moon (ticket to the moon). Fly, fly through a troubled sky Up to a new world shining bright, oh, oh. Flying high above Soaring madly through the mysteries that come Wondering sadly if the ways that led me here Could turn around and I would see you there Standing there (and I would see you there, waiting...) Ticket to the moon Flight leaves here today from satellite two As the minutes go by, what should I do? I paid the fare, what more can I say? Its just one way (only one way)... Repeat chorus: Repeat chorus: |
Confusion (ELO) |
Everywhere the sun is shining. All around the world its shining. But cold winds blow across your mind. Confusion--its such a terrible shame. Confusion--you dont know what youre sayin. Youve lost your love and you just cant carry on. You feel theres no-one there for you to lean on. Every night youre out there darlin. Youre always out there runnin. And I see that lost look in your eyes. Confusion,i dont know what I should do. Confusion,i leave it all up to you. Youve lost your love and you just cant carry on. You feel theres no-one there for you to lean on. Dark is the road you wander. And as you stand there under. The starry sky,you feel sad inside. Confusion,you know its drivin me wild. Confusion,it comes as no big surprise. Youve lost your love and you just cant carry on. You feel theres no-one there for you to lean on. |
Telephone line (ELO) |
Hello--how are you Have you been alright, through all those lonely nights, Thats what Id say, Id tell you everything, If youd pick up that telephone. Hey--how you feelin Are you still the same Dont you realize the things we did were all for real not a dream, I just cant believe They've all faded out of view. I look into the sky (the love you need aint gonna see you through.) And I wonder why (the little things are finally coming true.) Chorus: Telephone line, give me some time, Im living in twilight Telephone line, give me some time, Im living in twilight O.k. so no--ones answering, Well cant you just let it ring a little longer Ill just sit tight, through the shadows of the night Let it ring for evermore. Chorus -- repeat |
Twilight (ELO) |
The visions dancing in my mind The early dawn, the shades of time Twilight crawling through my windowpane Am I awake or do I dream? The strangest pictures I have seen Night is day and twilights gone away With your head held high and your scarlet lies You came down to me from the open skies Its either real or its a dream Theres nothing that is in between.. Chorus: Twilight, I only meant to stay awhile Twilight, I gave you time to steal my mind Away from me. Across the night I saw your face You disappeared without a trace You brought me here, but can you take me back? Inside the image of your light That now is day and once was night You lead me here and then you go away. Repeat chorus (you brought me here, but can you take me back again? ) With your head held high and your scarlet lies You came down to me from the open skies Repeat chorus Twilight, I only meant to stay awhile Twilight, I only meant to stay awhile Twilight, twilight, twilight, twilight. |
