WINE FROM THE WATER
You can take me up, you can wind me down
There's no escape, but I'll never drown
No wires or strings, No rough and smooth
Just fire and stings, Watch me closely, Watch my every move

I can count your money while I check your hand
And you know I just can't lose

Wine from the water, Gold from a tree
I wouldn't fool you, There's nothing up my sleeve
Look for a mirror, There's nothing there
I get rings out of nowhere, Money from thin air

I can break these chains, While I'm upside down
Well it may seem strange, I don't hit the ground
Now you see my hand, Is quicker than your eye
You should know by now, What you see here, all of it's a lie

I can count your money while I check your hand
And you know I just can't lose

Wine from the water, Gold from a tree
I wouldn't fool you, There's nothing up my sleeve
Think of a number, I'll get it right
Throw me in the river, Tie my hands up tight

I can wind you up, I can turn you round
No cunning stunts, till the lady's found
No coils or springs, Just nice and smooth
No Knaves or Kings, Find the lady, Watch my every move

I can count your money while I check your hand
And you know I just can't lose

Wine from the water, Gold from a tree
I wouldn't fool you, There's nothing up my sleeve
Look for a mirror, No, nothing there
I get Rings out of nowhere, Money from thin air

Wine from the water, Gold from a tree
Now I wouldn't fool you, There's nothing up my sleeve
Think of a number, I'll get it right
You can throw me in the river, Tie my hands up tight

Wine from the water, Gold from a tree

I get rings out of nowhere, Money from thin air

YOU DON'T BELIEVE
My eyes with your vision
My choice but always your decision
My play with your direction
Well it's my lead but always your connection

But when I look into your eyes you don't believe me
I can see it in your eyes you don't believe

My words, your expression
My land, always your possession
My song, your production
My expense is always your deduction

But when I look into your eyes you don't believe me
I can see it in your eyes you don't believe me

And the face I see before me
Is both sides of a mirror
You really know you've got a hold on me
And the face you're looking into
Is both sides of a window
And any way you look you see through me

My fame, your reflection
My weakness always your protection
Well it's my terms on your conditions
And they're my tunes but they're your compositions

But when I look into your eyes you don't believe me
I can see it in your eyes you don't believe

YOU LIE DOWN WITH DOGS
You're such a cool woman but I love you
Such a cruel woman but I love you
Open up your eyes and realise
You're such a fool woman but I love you
But you give me all that you've got to give
Cause it sure feels good to me

I'm not your only man I'm just your lover
Not your only man just another
Open up your eyes and realise
I'm gonna take what I can like any other
Cause it don't mean a thing to me

Well
You lie down with dogs you fall in with thieves
You're gonna catch something but you do as you please
You're scratchin' an itch that nothing can ease
You lie down with dogs you get up with fleas

Get out and find yourself another lover
Why don't you find yourself another lover
Open up your eyen and realise
You don't mean nothing to me I'm not your mother
You gave me all that you had to give
But there's a whole lotta fish in the sea

Well
You lie down with dogs you fall in with thieves
You're gonna catch something but you do as you please
You're scratchin' an itch that nothing can ease
You lie down with dogs you get up with fleas

YOU'RE GONNA GET YOUR FINGERS BURNED
Watch me closely catch my eye
If you do I Beg you to remind me
Who is stronger who is Weak of those who seek
And don't know where to find me

Ask me why, I don't know
You ask Me why and I say
Now you see me now you don't
I thought by now you'd learned
You're gonna get your Fingers burned

Watch me closely understand
That what you see is only an illusion
If I'm wrong and you are right
Then I will Light your darkness with confusion

Ask me why I don't know
You Ask me why and I say
Chances are you're playing with fire
I thought by now you'd learned
You're gonna get your fingers burned

Watch me closely be aware
That All I do is only to surprise you
Every move is Sleight of hand
And every word is planned to mystify you

You ask me why I don't know
You ask me why and I say
Don't get fooled a second time
I thought By now you'd understand
You're gonna get your fingers burned

YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN
Do you know who I am
Do you know where you are
Are you where you want to be
Do you see what you like
Do you like what you see
Do you think a need in you
Can fulfil a need in me
You're on your own, you're on your own
In a no man's land
In a danger zone
You're on your own, you're on your own
And you cant turn back
And you can't find your way home
Do you know who you are
Do you know what you want
Can you see me as I am
Do you think you're a lion
And I'm a lamb
That you came in here a boy
And you're going out a man
You're on your own, you're on your own
And there's no way out
Of the Danger zone
You're on your own, you're on your own
And your only friend
Is a heart of stone
And now you are alone my friend
And I must set you free
And you must face the world outside
And find your destiny
You're on your own, you're on your own
In a no man's land
In a danger zone
You're on your own, you're on your own
And your only friend has a heart of stone
You're on your own, you're on your own
And there's no way out
Of the Danger zone
You're on your own, you're on your own
Just a lonely child
And you can't find your way home

YOU WON'T BE THERE
Show me a promised land and I will go anywhere
And if you ask me to take my time I'll wait for years
I'll hold on though the whole world tells me I'm wrong
Someday, someday
But it seems so long

Ask me to prove my love and I will do anything
So if they turn off the light of the sun why should I care
I'll hold on thought the whole world tells me I'm wrong
Then in the morning as you leave me
You touch my hand to show how much you care
But just when I need you
You won't be there

I'll hold on but I need a shoulder to lean on
Why if you love me must you leave me
Why are you going anywhere
Why must our love be something in the air
Cause just when I need you
You won't be there
You won't be there
