Diamond [Tommy Shaw]

Diamond Written by Tommy Shaw Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw "See you boys later" "All right" "Play hard" My friends are all detectives They liked to be protective 'Cause they knew I was the marrying kind But this time they were helpless Their Police skills were useless They knew I'd never pay them any mind She was shinny She was bright If that spelled trouble Well all right Guess we'll just have to wait and see She looked like a diamond to me Love's already hard enough But when your heart gets tough You can miss the simple things You walk right past a rose As if you never had a nose Then one day A little bell rings Nothing matters anymore Time to get up off the floor Time to end this misery Yeah she looked like a diamond to me After all my years in this place My fears slip slowly into space Nothing but blue sky above And a sky writer writes the word love Angels must have been on guard 'Cause man it hit me hard It was the real thing after al...

Nature Of The Beast [Tommy Shaw]

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...

Give In

Give In Written by Lawrence Gowan Lead Vocals by Lawrence Gowan Why do you insist on running When your back’s against the wall You’ve been chased into this corner And I know you’re bound to fall Give in Can’t you see I beat you now Give in There’s no escaping anyhow But you try all in vain Turn around, back again Can’t you see this is me On the move I'm going to get to you You know it’s what I got to do I’ve been on the trail a long time Now I’m gonna put you into line Come on give in to me now Now, now, now, now, say it Well you might have made it last time When you had me on the take But the pressure’s on you this time And I know you’re going to break Give in Can’t you see you’re stuck with me Give in And that’s the way it’s got to be And you know that you’re beat And the plan is complete Can’t you see, this is me On the move I'm going to get to you You know it’s what I got to do I’ve been on the trail a long time Now I’m gonna put you into line Come on give in to me now Now,...

Send Me Energy Written by Lawrence Gowan Lead Vocals by Lawrence Gowan I don’t need your sympathy I don’t need your remorse I don’t like your telling me I’m running on the wrong course Something you can’t imitate Something so precise This is what I need from you It’s so very nice now How come I’m always so tired And you’re so vital and wired Don’t waste my time being lazy You got the one thing to save me, so save me Send me energy Then you don’t have to worry what becomes of me Entering a brand new phase Make you feel real good now Your vibration’s positive If you only would now I don’t need your sympathy I don’t need your remorse I don’t like your telling me I’m running on the wrong course Ooh, I'm on the wrong course How come I’m always so tired And you’re so vital and wired Don’t waste my time being lazy You got the one thing to save me, so save me Send me energy Send me energy Then you don’t have to worry what becomes of me Send me energy Send me energy Then you don’t have to w...

Lights

Lights Written by Tommy Shaw Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw Listen on YouTube I heard the knock on my door I heard the ring of the bell I got the letter but I couldn't go So many thoughts in my head So many places to be So many faces that I long to see Standing in front of me tonight The lights will take me where I long to be Just like a thousand nights before Somebody said to me Why do you do this to you Why not sit back and relax Go to the islands and forget it all Slow down, you're moving too fast You seem afraid it won't last Take my advice, go straight and settle down Thank you for caring, but tonight the lights will take me where I long to be Just like a thousand nights before I can't explain, it gives me something Give me the lights, precious lights Give me lights Give me my hope, give me my energy You can turn the wrong into right Precious lights illuminate me, carry me away Carry me, carry me
