Jealousy Written by Tommy Shaw Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw I open the door I turn on the lights I can feel it in my bones Something just isn't right The room smells like a cigarette Your hair looks a mess And didn't you think I'd notice All the wrinkles in your dress When I look in your eyes I can tell something's wrong There's no use in denying girl I've known you too long There's something going on I'm not sure what it is But let me tell you It's my business if it's his Jealousy has got a hold on me My foolish heart won't let me be I can almost see his face As he's kissing you And I can't control my jealousy When you answer the phone Are you really alone It's like I'm talking to a stranger Do you think I don't know You say he's just a friend And I try my best to understand But I'm a man and I know men So don't you ask me to pretend I'm all for liberation And I'm all for being fair And I'm all for do...

Remo's Theme (What If) Written by Tommy Shaw and Richie Cannata Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw There's a message I'm receiving And it's coming in clear But it's not the one that I need to hear So if seeing is believing You better take another look Because I'm half-way gone And I'm hardly here What if, what if you find you made a mistake What if, what if it's worth the chance that you're taking I would never want to see you standing in the line of fire You're the one who has to come to grips with your own desires Do you hear what I'm saying Am I even getting through Are you so far gone I can't talk to you I could tell you what you want to hear But is it really what you need Now it's time to stand On your own two feet What if, what if you find you made a mistake What if, what if it's worth the chance that you're taking I would never want to see you standing in the line of fire But you're the one who has to come to grips with your...

Reach For The Bottle Written by Tommy Shaw Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw There's a hole in the picture There's a flaw in the cloth There's your favorite sweater Signature of the moth Shaky hand on the throttle Says something's wrong So you reach for the bottle And you live the song There you stand in the kitchen You're fit and your lean You've got the heart of a lion You know you're so damn mean Put your hands in the water You feel the drain But your hands are still dirty They won't ever come clean I've been lying to no one but myself To tell you that there's nothing wrong Nobody knows the trouble that we've seen And how we tried to get along Run to the water Run to the sun Run to whatever 'Till the hurting is done Or we reach for the bottle When we should put it down And we start the whole thing over What goes around comes around

Friendly Advice Written by Tommy Shaw Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw My suitcase is packed It's sitting by the door I've gone over all the facts I can't take them any more But every time my feet hit the street My head starts aching and My knees get week I turn back around I let myself in I feel like a dog No matter what I come back again My friends all try to give me friendly advice They all agree I shouldn't be so nice Women really like it when you push them around But it's not me So here I go again Ignoring all the signs It doesn't take a scientist To read between the lines But right about the time I'm sure I've had enough I've decided to call it quits and I'm Ready to get tough You turn it on with those Those big brown eyes The next thing you know I'm out buying long-stem roses My friends all try to give me friendly advice They all agree I shouldn't be so nice Women really like it when you push them around I'm like my daddy Old-fashione...

This Is Not A Test Written by Tommy Shaw Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw The music's interuppted by an old Familiar sound We've heard it all our lives Who paid attention Then the radio announcer tells us This has been a test I never heard the rest I always changed the station Mr. President our radar shows An image in the skies And we believe it's headed our Direction The Russions aren't responding And we're up against the clock It seems there's no avoiding This deadly confrontation And this is not a test No video effect No science fiction quest for glory And this is not a test There'll be no turning back The hour is at hand And this is not a test You can ignore We've not been here before Let's hear it for the war How did peace and freedom Disappear before our very eyes And leave us in this desperate situation There is no way to justify For country or for God The heavens are a battlefield And now this confrontation

See Me Now Written by Tommy Shaw Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw Oh babe I'm on top of the world And I can't look down I can't look down You're still out there I can almost hear you call Look out girl I'm ready to fall The mountains we've climbed The bridges we've crossed In the book of my dreams They'll never be lost Come on darling commit yourself Open up your heart and let yourself go If you could only see me now You'd see me different than before Somehow I've got to make you see There's a place for you here with me Whatever happened to my good-time friends Free as a bird As wild the wind Everyone laughed and tried their best to put us down But I'm still here They're no longer around They've settled down now They're so civilized If you saw them today you'd hardly Recognize them I'll never understand What happened to them all It's only me here now But I'll catch you if you fall If you could only see me now (if you ...

Count On You Written by Tommy Shaw Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw When I feel like the world's gone mad And I need you so bad But I don't know where you are I cry these tears On our own we've been so far We've sworn at the moon And we've counted a million stars My love Still true Friends have come and gone Some have left me alone But I've stared at these walls before And they've made me blue All along in my heart I've known There's one thing in my life That still rings true I can count on you Count on you to be there No questions in the air No asking why or where No looking back Count on you every time To ease my worried mind You'll forever be important to me My miracle find If I had to choose one place To spend the rest of my days Anywhere will do Long as it's close to you Count on you to be there No questions in the air No asking why or where No looking back Count on you every time To ease my worried mind You'll forever be important to me My...

Nature Of The Beast Written by Tommy Shaw Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw Feel the chill that's in the air My eyes are dry And the night could hardly care Wind whistle why And as the storm moves toward the east I call your name It's the nature of the beast To be drawn to the flame You take your life for granted But that won't get you far You'll never take out More than you put in Or you think yourself enchanted That you'll never lose Do you notice if you win If you ever find your peace I'll still be here For it's the nature of the beast And my eyes are clear You take your life for granted But that won't get you far You'll never take out More than you put in Or you think yourself enchanted That you can never lose Will you notice if you win And as the storm moves toward the east I call your name For it's the nature of the beast To be drawn to your flame If you ever find your peace I'll still be here For it's the nature of the beast And my eyes ar...

Bad Times Written by Tommy Shaw Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw Make a wish Climb a tree Make believe that you still love me I'm the one with the funny face Who made you laugh Made you lose your place Don't let the bad times chase you away Good times are coming, and it's gonna be okay Don't let the bad times chase you away Let's get naked Take a dip I'll be the submarine you be the ship We need vacation We need some sun We've been working too hard To please everyone Don't let the bad times chase you away Good times are coming, and it's gonna be okay Don't let the bad times chase you away You know that Bad times are only temporary Running away is not necessary I don't know anyone who likes February It's too damn cold It's just too damn cold Hey hey See these tears in my eyes It takes a lot to make a grown man cry But cry I will until you come back home I don't want to spend the night alone Don't let the bad times chase you away Good ...
