1. GOING OUT WITH A BANG



If you say we’re falling
It’s gonna be on our feet
We’re gonna take it to town
We’ll ride the dark side of the street
Yeah

If you think we’re not fighting
Like we used to do
So are you ready for this
You might learn a bit a trick or two

Cause all those years of rockin’ hard
Have taught us how to rise and how to fall
We’re still standing tall

We’re going out with a bang
We’re going out with a bang
I said we gonna go out with a bang
B-b-bang, bang, bang
Out with a bang
Yeah

If you say we’re losing
Watch out we’re taking the crown
Thumbs go up all the way
No sign of slowing down
Yeah

If you think we’re excited
I cannot tell you how much
Cause life’s a heartbeat away
And we’re never losing touch

’Cause all those years of rockin’ hard
Have taught us how to rise and how to fall
We’re standing tall

We’re going out with a bang
We’re going out with a bang
I said we gonna go out with a bang
B-b-bang, bang, bang
Out with a bang
Bang ! Bang ! Bang !
We’re going out with a bang
B-b-bang, bang, bang
Out with a bang

Oh !

’Cause all those years of rockin’ hard
Have taught us how to rise and how to fall
We’re standing tall

I said we gonna go out with a bang
Bang, bang, bang
Out with a bang
Bang ! Bang ! Bang !
We’re going out with a bang
B-b-bang, bang, bang
Going out with a bang, bang, bang
Oh !

Bang !





2. WE BUILT THIS HOUSE



Love is the glue
That holds us together
Faith and believing is the key
This door of forever
Baby you and I
We’re every reason on earth
Now and again it’s always us
Against the world, against the world

When the rain fell
And the flood came
And the wind blew hard like a hammer on these walls
We didn’t crack or break or fall
We built this house on a rock oh oh
This house on a rock oh oh

There is a time
To face stormy weather
But we are always standing strong
A lifetime together
Baby you and I
We don’t regret anything
Now it’s the two of us again
Against the wind, against the wind

When the rain fell
And the flood came
And the wind blew hard like a hammer on these walls
We didn’t crack or break or fall
We built this house on a rock oh oh
This house on a rock oh oh

Brick by brick we have set it up
Oh man, if these walls could talk
Bit by bit based it on trust
We gave it all we got

When the rain fell
And the flood came
And the wind blew hard like a hammer on these walls
We didn’t crack or break or fall
We built this house on a rock oh oh
This house on a rock oh oh

We built this house on a rock oh oh
We built this house on a rock oh oh





3. ROCK MY CAR



Rock, rock, rock my car
Let’s push the pedal down to the metal
Rock, rock, rock my car
Let’s push the pedal down to the metal yeah hey

The ultimate pleasure is waiting for me
You wanna join in for a drive
The engine is roaring, I double the speed
Love with the fast lane of life
A rush to the head, I’m changing the gear

My heart’s beating faster, because I can hear
The highway is calling my name
Fasten your seatbelts, ready to go

Rock, rock, rock my car
Let’s push the pedal down to the metal
Rock, rock, rock my car

4. HOUSE OF CARDS



Sometimes I walk mysterious places
Hear voices that talk without a word to say
Sometimes I hear the echoes of laughter
In the twilight of affairs and other tragedies

A half-moon away, way too close to heaven
She had the look, but no morality
Sometimes it’s easy to forget only for a moment
But there are nights you regret eternally

Whatever frozen hearts can do
Will melt the ice away

How you know what it’s like
When good luck has changed the sides
And no sun shines in the dark and no angels
Ever hear your prayers in the night
When your fears come up your spine
When your life turns upside down it breaks your heart
When you get crushed in a house of cards
House of cards

It´s so hard to find a way when life is in pieces
And the taste of a kiss is so bittersweet
Sometimes it’s easy to forget only for a moment
But the man who’ll rise up from the ashes is no one else but me

I’m standing in a waterfall
To wash the lies away

How you know what it’s like
When good luck has changed the sides
And no sun shines in the dark and no angels
Ever hear your prayers in the night
When your fears come up your spine
When your life turns upside down it breaks your heart
House of cards

Whatever frozen hearts can do
Will melt the ice away

How you know what it’s like
When good luck has changed the sides
And no sun shines in the dark and no angels
Ever hear your prayers in the night
When your fears come up your spine
When your life turns upside down and there is no one
You get crushed in a house of cards
House of cards





5. ALL FOR ONE



The weekend comes around
The gang is back in town
We love Saturdays
We love Saturdays
Another drink to slam
The Girls Wham Bang
The Band starts to play
The Band starts to play

That road fever, never leaves me cold
You son of a gun, you never let me go

All for one - standing tall through high and low
All for one - we ride the storm where it may blow
All for one - and one for all
And all for one

A California jam
Meet some good old friends
The city never sleeps
The city never sleeps
And when we hit the road
Watch out for trouble bro
Don’t mess with rattlesnakes
Don’t mess with rattlesnakes

That road fever, hits me and I guess
I won’t stop, till they’ll lay my bones to rest

All for one - standing tall through high and low
All for one - we ride the storm where it may blow
All for one - and one for all
And all for one

Once I did only care about myself
Once I was lost and lonely
Road can be heaven, road can be hell
So if you want me, call me

That road fever, never leaves me cold
You son of a gun, you never let me go

All for one - standing tall through high and low
All for one - we ride the storm where it may blow
All for one - just down the road, go, go, go
All for one - always fast and never slow
All for one - and one for all
And all for one
All everyone for all
Yeah !





6. ROCK'N'ROLL BAND



I pick up my guitar rock this town
When passion rules I can't slow down
I'm walking down the streets of hungry hearts
Where heaven cries when angels fall

A hollywood stage, girls in a cage
Action, satisfaction, legs around the pole
Bang I'm in the spot, give me that shot
We rock the night away and that's the way it goes

You wanna know who I am ?
I'm in a rock'n'roll band
In a rock'n'roll band
I'm in a rock'n'roll band
In a rock'n'roll band
Oh yeah, yes I am

She walks into the light looking hot
I love the way she moves, oh my god
Just another tune her heart goes boom
Come on little lady show me all you've got

Roaring machines, wet wet dreams
Too much of everything can never be too much
Don't wake me up, don't bring me down
Rock'n'roll forever that's my drug

You wanna know who I am ?
I'm in a rock'n'roll band
In a rock'n'roll band
I'm in a rock'n'roll band
In a rock'n'roll band
Oh yes I am

Night after night
It's like a rollercoaster ride
And when we crash we gonna fall
Into the heart of rock'n'roll

You wanna know who I am ?
I'm in a rock'n'roll band
In a rock'n'roll band
I'm in a rock'n'roll band
Yeah
I'm in a rock'n'roll band
Ah yes I am
Rock'n'roll band
I'm in a rock'n'roll band
Yes I am (in a rock'n'roll band)
Oh !
I'm in a rock'n'roll band

I'm in a rock'n'roll
I'm in a rock'n'roll
I'm in a rock'n'roll band





7. CATCH YOUR LUCK AND PLAY



I saw her walking to the station
Up for a ride on the crazy train
In her eyes I saw a world of passion
So much lust so deep inside to be unchained

Lost my heart for a little runaway
Full of love and little lies

We don’t care about anything
There’s a brand new day tomorrow
We go hey (you) live (now)
And love will come your way
I play my vintage six string
And there’s a road to follow
We go hey (you) live (now)
Catch your luck and play

I turned around, heard her calling
I was thrilled in so many ways
She ate me up and I was falling
And I was lost not to be found without a trace

Take my heart you little runaway
Full of love and little lies

We don’t care about anything
There’s a brand new day tomorrow
We go hey (you) live (now)
And love will come your way
I play my vintage six string
And there’s a road to follow
We go hey (you) live (now)
Catch your luck and play

We don’t care about anything
And we go hey (you) live (now)
And love will come your way
I play my vintage six string
Yeah...we go hey (you) live (now)
Catch your luck and play (catch your luck and play)
We don’t care about anything
There’s a brand new day tomorrow
We go hey (you) live (now)

And love will come your way (come your way)
I play my vintage six string
And there’s a road to follow
We go hey (you) live (now)
Catch your luck and play
Catch your luck and play





8. ROLLIN' HOME



Way back in the days
It feels so long ago
But I remember it well
Always looking for a pot of gold
An old beat up van
We would drive from gig to gig
I wonder how we survived
But we were on to something big

Now it’s time to move along
We’re packing this bus to leave and carry on

Here we go
This rock is rollin’ home
This rock is rollin’ home
This rock is rollin’ home
This rock is rollin’ home

You gotta make it or break
I always knew that we were strong
No matter what was said
We wouldn’t argue for too long
And when it hit me hard
I thought I can’t go on no more
But at the end of the day
You really know what friends are for

Now it’s time to move along
Wheels keep turning round we’ll carry on

Here we go
This rock is rollin’ home
This rock is rollin’ home
This rock is rollin’ home
This rock is rollin’ home
Yeah this rock
This rock this rock is rollin' home
This rock, oh !
This rock is rollin' home

Now it’s time to move along
We’re packing this bus to leave and carry on
Carry on
We carry on

This rock is rollin’ home

Here we go (this rock)
This rock is rollin’ home (this rock)
This rock is rollin’ home (rollin' home)
This rock is rollin’ home (this rock)
This rock is rollin’ home





9. HARD ROCKIN' THE PLACE



Hard...(rock this joint)
Hard...(rock this joint)
Hard...(rock this joint)
Hard...

I put the world on my shoulder
Don´t worry I feel no pain
I’m down on the floor, but you can be sure
I’m standing up once again

Don’t bother you with my troubles
Just try to walk in my shoes
I´ll keep filling up this bottle
With energy that’s pouring just all over me

Sometimes I feel like a boxer
Well, l can take all the heat
You knock me down, but next time around
I´ll be back on my feet

You’re killing me with your troubles
lt’s always just the same old blues
I´ll keep filling up this bottle
With energy that’s pouring over you and me

Hard, hard rockin’ the place
Wherever we go, whatever it takes
Hard, hard rockin’ the place
We rock this joint and fade away
Hard...(rock this joint)
Hard...(rock this joint)
Hard...(rock this joint)
Hard...

I put the world on my shoulder
And carry on all the way
I have a laugh, just can’t get enough
There’s always sun after rain

I keep filling up this bottle
Cause I’m running empty soon
Oh yeah, here comes double trouble
Your energy is pouring just all over me

Hard, hard rockin’ the place
Wherever we go, whatever it takes
Hard, hard rockin’ the place
We rock this joint and fade away
Hard, hard rockin’ the place
Wherever we go, whatever it takes
Hard rockin’ the place
We walk this road on the way
Hard...(rock this joint)
Hard...(rock this joint)
Hard...(rock this joint)
Hard...





10. EYE OF THE STORM



Another year is running through my veins
Some moments wasted, some will remain
The days are getting shorter and I try to drown my fears
The shadows of the night slowly disappear

Another day to leave it all behind
Good morning life, so beautiful and bright
I’m going back in time to the days when I was young
And now it feels like life had just begun

I’m on my way home, on my way home
Yesterday seems long ago, so long ago
I’m on my way home sending postcards home
Greetings from the eye of the storm

Another night, the curtain’s coming down
I hear the silence, just screaming loud
I can see the sunrise, rising from the smoke
Will you be there for me, will I ever know

I’m on my way home, on my way home
Yesterday seems long ago, so long ago
I’m on my way home sending postcards home
Greetings from the eye of the storm

Rock the highway, Highway Star
And bring me back, just bring me back to my love

I’m on my way home, on my way home
Yesterday seems long ago, so long ago
I’m on my way home feelin’ high and low
Greetings from the eye of the storm

It’s been way too long
I’m still living in the eye of the storm





11. THE SCRATCH



It’s been so long out on the road
Weeks and months gone by
You lost some weight and you shed your load
Your well is running dry
I got an itch you cannot scratch (cannot scratch)
Feels like someone’s coming back (coming back)
Looks like we’re about to have some fun, fun, fun yeah

So here I come
And you’re the one, two, three, four
Babe I’m here I’m back so love me do
I want you too, three, four, five
Babe I’m buzzin’ around your hive

The years that passed they’ve not been kind
I’m thinking more and more
About the girl that I left behind
When I walked out that door
Turn around, I’m coming back (coming back)
There’s that itch I cannot scratch (cannot scratch)
Looks like we’re about to have more fun, fun, fun yes

So here I come
And you’re the one, two, three, four
Babe I’m here I’m back so love me do
I want you too, three, four, five
Babe I’m buzzin’ around your hive
Yeah here I come

Yeah !

One, two, one, two, one, two, three, four

Yeah here I come
And you’re the one, two, three, four
Babe I’m here I’m back so love me do
I want you too, three, four, five
Babe I’m buzzin’ around your hive
Around your hive
Yeah !





12. GYPSY LIFE



Here I go again
Feels like once upon a time
But this is here and now
You can try to read my mind
Well life has given me so much
And so much more
True love is hard to find
When you’re on the run

While all those years go by
The clock is ticking way too fast
And I just ask myself
What is going to be last
I’ve seen it all but still
I’ve seen nothing yet at all
So I’m still looking for
Some diamonds and pearls

Bye bye girl
There’s a road I gotta find
Called the gypsy life
I miss that life
Like a good old friend

Well friends they come and go
Some are here and some are gone
And when the sun goes down
I will walk this road alone
But now I´m here with you
And my heart is full of hope
That life will bring me back
Into your open arms

Bye bye girl
There’s a road I gotta find
Called the gypsy life
I miss that life
Like a good old friend

Bye bye girl
There’s a dream that’s still alive
It will take some time
A long long time
Until I’m back again

Bye bye girl
There’s a road I gotta find
Called the gypsy life
I miss that life
Like a good old friend

Bye bye girl
There’s a dream that’s still alive
It will take some time
A long long time
Until I’m back again

Bye bye girl
Bye bye girl

Until I’m back again





13. THE WORLD WE USED TO KNOW (DELUXE EDITON BONUS)



The flowers died on fields of hope
All the way from east to west
Where the mighty winds will blow
I'll put my dreams to rest
This scary monster is very much alive
Like a hundred years ago
If all those missiles would be bread
No one had to starve tonight
We run for shelter and what is left
Is a life ain't worth a dime
So far away from human rights
Stranded all alone

It's a long way to go
To find the world we used to know
A long way to go
To find the better world we used to know

Before we make this world a mess
We gotta clean up our minds
We could be brothers, sisters yes
United once and all the time
From out of space the captain takes a look
At mother earth, so small

It's a long way to go
To find the world we used to know
A long way to go
To find the better world we used to know

Who will be cryin' when we fall
Just tell me
Who in the world can heal our souls

It's a long way to go
To find the world we used to know
A long way to go
To find the better world we used to know
A better world we used to know
A better world
It's a long way to go






14. DANCING WITH THE MOONLIGHT (DELUXE EDITON BONUS)



Rocked the place getting on the plane
Thunder and lightning on the way
The cabin crew told us to relax yeah
Perfect time for a birthday bash
Ed threw a party and we all crashed
Long before we were talking off to nowhere

Dancing with the moonlight
Should have been an easy flight
But once in the air
Half way there we went down
Dancing with the moonlight
Destination out of sight
And before we arrived
We were back on the ground

We came to stop and refueled the plane
Had some more vodka and cheap champane
The stewardess looking so much better
Back in the air around midday
We were finally on our way
One hour flight but this one took forever

Dancing with the moonlight
Should have been an easy flight
But once in the air
Half way there we went down
Dancing with the moonlight
Destination out of sight
And before we arrived
We were back on the ground

Thunder and lightning
Thunder and lightning
Thunder and lightning
Thunder
Yeah

Dancing with the moonlight
Should have been an easy flight
But once in the air
Half way there we went down

Dancing with the moonlight
Should have been an easy flight
But once in the air
Half way there we went down
Dancing with the moonlight
Destination out of sight
And before we arrived
We were back on the ground

Dancing with the moonlight




15. WHEN THE TRUTH IS A LIE (DELUXE EDITON BONUS)



When I saw her for the first time
I was mesmerized and blown away
What if she would be the one to
Live and die for in an endless love

It hurts deep inside
Hurts deep inside
When the truth is a lie
Inside
It hurts deep inside
When the truth is a lie

Love is blind and hard to find
Falling for her made me lose my mind
Hoping all was just a bad dream
Wishing I could travel back in time

It hurts deep inside
Hurts deep inside
When the truth is a lie
Inside
It hurts deep inside
When the truth is a lie

Everybody I was talking to
All my friends confirmed it's true
No one really was taken by surprise, but me
I was really way too blind to see
Her betrayal the reality
When I finally opened up my eyes the love was gone

It hurts deep inside
Hurts deep inside
When the truth is a lie
Inside
It hurts deep inside
When the truth is a lie





16. WHO WE ARE (DELUXE EDITON BONUS)



Set me free, make love to me
Don't you play with my heart
I love you once, you love me twice
Before we part

Turn down the lights, let's kiss the night
You've showed me once what is love
I'm lost in you, you're lost in me
That's who we are
That's who we are

Who we are
We are sun and moon
Who we are
The sky black and blue
Who we are

I'm still on the run still on the roll
To find somebody, someone like you
You take my body, mind and soul
Into a world, I never knew

So set me free, make love to me
Take me out of the dark
I am you and you are me
That's who we are
That’s who we are

Who we are
We are sun and moon
Who we are
The sky black and blue
That's who we are





17. DELIRIOUS (ITUNES BONUS)



She's got the look that starts a fire
I must admit I follow every move she makes
She's got the touch of cool desire
It's a game that I really love to play

She runs the show as everyone can see
The fever grows to pure insanity

She's cool inside
She drives me wild
So cool inside
She drives me wild

She's got the eyes of a tiger
You can tell she is looking out for fame
She spends her night just like a spider
Once I'm in there is no way to escape

The way she moves just feeds my fantasy
You wanna go, but you can never leave

She's cool inside
She drives me wild
So cool inside
She drives me wild

If she comes, and that's for sure
It just can't get any better anymore
Here she comes, now give me more
Don't ever stop
Stop, baby
Don't go away

She's like a stone that's coming over me
That fever grows to pure insanity

She's cool inside
She drives me wild
So cool inside
She drives me wild

She's cool inside
She drives me wild
So cool inside
She drives me wild

She's cool inside
She drives me wild
So cool inside
She drives me wild
