1. PROLOGUE

Just on the border of your waking mind,
There lies another time
Where darkness and light are one,
And as you tread the halls of sanity
You feel so glad to be unable to go beyond

I have a message from another time.


2. TWILIGHT

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 twilight's gone away

With your head held high and your scarlet lies
You came down to me from the open skies
It's either real or it's a dream
There's 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.

(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
It's either real or it's a dream
There's nothing that is in between

(Chorus)

Twilight, I only meant to stay awhile
Twilight, I only meant to stay awhile
Twilight, Twilight, Twilight, Twilight.


3. YOURS TRULY, 2095

2095, 2095, 2095, 2095
I love you, sincerely
Yours truly, yours truly...

I sent a message to another time
But as the days unwind, this I just can't believe
I sent a note across another plane
Maybe it's all a game, but this I just can't conceive.

Can you hear me?

I drive the very latest hovercar
I don't know where you are
But I miss you so much till then
I met someone who looks a lot like you
She does the things you do
But she is an IBM.

2095, 2095, 2095, 2095
I love you, sincerely
Yours truly, yours truly...

She's only programmed to be very nice
But she's as cold as ice
Whenever I get too near
She tells me that she likes me very much
But when I try to touch
She makes it all too clear.

She is the latest in technology
Almost mythology
But she has a heart stone
She has an I.Q. of 1001
She has a jumpsuit on
And she's also a telephone.

2095, 2095, 2095, 2095
I love you, sincerely
Yours truly, yours truly...

(Chorus)
Is that what you want? (Is it what you want?)
Is it what you really want? (Is it what you really want?)
Is that what you want? (Is it what you want?)
Is it what you really want?

I realize that it must seem so strange
That time has rearranged
But time has the final word
She knows I think of you, she reads my mind
She tries to be unkind
She knows nothing of our world

Although her memory banks overflow
No one would ever know
For all she says: "Is that what you want?"
Maybe one day I'll feel her cold embrace
And kiss her interface
'Til then, I'll leave her alone.

I love you, sincerely
Yours truly, yours truly...

(Chorus...)

"Is that what you want?"


4. TICKET TO THE MOON

Remember the good old 1980's,
When things were so uncomplicated,
I wish I could go back there again
And everything could be the same.

I've got a ticket to the moon
I'll be leaving here any day soon
Yeah, I've got a ticket to the moon
But I'd rather see the sunrise, in your eyes.

Got a ticket to the moon
I'll be rising high above the earth so soon
And the tears I cry might turn into the rain
That gently falls upon your window
You'll never know.

Ticket to the moon
Fly, fly through a troubled sky
Up to a new world shining bright.

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

Ticket to the moon
Flight leaves here today from Satellite 2
As the minutes go by, what shall I do,
I paid the fare, what more can I say,
It's just one way.

Ticket to the moon.


5. THE WAY LIFE'S MEANT TO BE

Well I came a long way to be here today
And I left you so long on this avenue,
And here I stand in the strangest land
Not knowing what to say or do.
As I gaze around at these strangers in town,
I guess the only stranger is me,
And I wonder,yes I wonder,is this
The way life's meant to be

Although it's only a day since I was taken away
And left standing here looking in wonder,
The ground at my feet maybe it's just the old street
But everything that I know lies under,
And when I see what they've
Done to this place that was home,

Shame is all that I feel,
And I wonder,yes I wonder,is this
The way life's meant to be.

Too late,too late to cry,the people say,
Too late for you,too late for me
You've come so far,now you know everything
My friend
Just look and see the wonders of our world

As I wander around this wreck of a town
Where people never speak aloud
With its ivory towers and its plastic flowers
I wish I was back in 1981
Just to see your face,instead of this place
Now I know what you mean to me,
And I wonder,yes I wonder,is this
The way life's meant to be.


6. ANOTHER HEART BREAKS

Another heart breaks, another heart breaks
Another heart breaks, another heart breaks
Another heart breaks, another heart breaks


7. RAIN IS FALLING

Early in the morning
The sun was up and the sky was very blue,
Without a warning,
As I looked out, my thoughts returned to you,
A noise in the city made the children run,
And hide themselves away,
And thunder boomed and lightning filled the sky.

Looking from this window,
A thousand rivers running past my door,
Standing on an islane, looking for someone,
Upon the shore,
I can see it very clearly nothing's really changed,
Then lightning strikes across an empty sky.

Ooohh, the rain is falling
Ooohh, the rain is falling
Ooohh, the rain is falling
Will it wash away the lonely tears,

With their brand new time transporter,
They'll think maybe I fought to get away,
But with all their great inventions,
And all their good intentions, here I stay,
Down on the corner where the sun had shone,
The people gathered 'round,
Then scattered as the raindrops hit the ground.

Ooohh, the rain is falling
Ooohh, the rain is falling
Ooohh, the rain is falling
Will it wash away the lonely tears.


8. FROM THE END OF THE WORLD

Oh you,you're so hard to get to,
Oh you,you don't want to play,
You were no better before,
I sent a letter before,
I sent a dream to you last night
From the end of the world.

Oh you,you keep me hangin' 'round and 'round
And 'round,
Oh you,look at the trouble I've found
You were no better before
I sent a letter before,
I sent a dream to you last night
From the end of the world.

I saw you last night but you couldn't answer,
You were a lonely little sidewalk dancer,
When I woke up I could not stand it
You were gone but I got to hand it to you.

Oh please if this is a game I wish someone would win
Oh please just let it fly to be upon the wind
You were no better before,I sent a letter before
I sent a dream to you baby last night
From the end of the world


9. THE LIGHTS GO DOWN

One day,I gotta get out of here,
I gotta make everything clear
I gotta see you.
I know,the way that I feel is wrong,so wrong.
But I gotta carry on, when you ain't around.

I believe things are going wrong,
And the night goes on and on,
All your dreams have flown away,
And the sun won't shine today

(Chorus)
The lights go down,
The lights go down,
The lights go down, and there's no one around.

I know,you're waiting so close to me,
But how will you ever see, as time rolls away,
Lonely, but tryin' to be so proud,
And just as I turn around, the lights go down.

I believe things are going wrong,
And the night goes on and on,
All your dreams have flown away,
And the sun won't shine today

(Chorus)


10. HERE IS THE NEWS

Here is the news
Coming to you every hour on the hour
Here is the news
The weather's fine but there may be a meteor shower.

Here is the news
A cure's been found for good old rocket lag
Here is the news
Someone left their life behind in a plastic bag.

Here is the news
Another action filled adventure
Here is the news
All the worst from the world convention.

Here is the news
I wanna go home, I want my baby back

Here is the news
Somebody has broken out of Satellite 2
Here is the news
Look very carefully, it may be you.


11. 21ST CENTURY MAN

A penny in your pocket
Suitcase in your hand
They won't get you very far
Now you're a 21st century man.

Fly across the city
Rise above the land
You can do 'most anything
Now you're a 21st century man.

Though you ride on the wheels of tomorrow
You still wander the fields of your sorrow

One day you're a hero
Next day you're a clown
There's nothing that is in between
Now you're a 21st century man.

You should be so happy
You should be so glad
So why are you so lonely
You 21st century man

You stepped out of a dream believing
Everything was gone
Return with what you've learned
They'll kiss the ground you walk upon.

Things ain't how you thought they were
Nothing have you planned
So pick up your penny and your suitcase
You're not a 21st century man.

Though you ride on the wheels of tomorrow
You still wander the fields of your sorrow
21st century man


12. HOLD ON TIGHT

Hold on tight to your dream
Hold on tight to your dream
When you see your ship go sailing
When you feel your heart is breaking
Hold tight to your dream.

It's a long time to be gone
Time just rolls on and on
When you need a shoulder to cry on
When you get so sick of trying
Just hold tight to your dream

When you get so down that you can't get up
And you want so much but you're all out of luck
When you're so downhearted and misunderstood
Just over & over & over you could

Accroches-toi a ton reve
Accroches-toi a ton reve
Quand tu vois ton bateau partir
Quand tu sents -- ton coeur se briser
Accroches-toi a ton reve.

Hold on tight to your dream
Hold on tight to your dream
When you see the shadows falling
When you hear that cold wind calling
Hold on tight to your dream.


13. EPILOGUE

You should be so happy.
You should be so glad.
21st Century Man.

Though you ride on the wheels of tomorrow.
You still wander the fields of your sorrow.

Time, time, time, time


14. THE BOUNCER

Do you remember, you said to me
That you would wait, wait for me eternally
I've been wondering, and I've been hoping
Your still the same, only you can say
I'll be so glad to be back with you
I'll do anything you want me to

That's what I want, I'll be so happy, back home

I see your light, shine in my window
And I know you coming home
And as the light grows, grows ever brighter
I see your face, you are alone
And when I tell you all the things I have seen
You'll say that darling you must have been dreaming

That's what I want, I'll be so happy, back home

Electric visions have crossed, strange decisions have crossed
I felt the stars above me, I have someone to love me
That's what I want, I'll be so happy, back home

Believe me baby when I say, I wish I never, never, never, never, never be away
For the things that I see, Be meant for the eyes of a time
And when we walk alone together
That's how I want it to be, want it to be forever

That's what I want, I'll be so happy
That's what I want, I'll be so happy
That's what I want, I'd be so happy, back home


15. WHEN TIME STOOD STILL

Far beyond the things you see
Time rolls on eternally
Got a thing about it
Just can't live without it

Sitting there inside your mind
Just waiting for the clock to chime
On a lonely line
Stood a lonely man

No pictures on an empty wall
No body there no one at all
Just echoes in the ivory halls
When time stood still

Days line up outside the door
Thought time had stopped there was no more
Been a lonely world
Such a lonely world

No pictures on an empty wall
No Toulouse, Vincent, or Pablo
Just echoes in the ivory halls
When time stood still

No big machine or April showers
No submarines no plastic flowers
Just echoes in the ivory towers
When time stood still

When time stood still

When time stood still

When time stood still


16. JULIE DON'T LIVE HERE

I wander through a town
A town I new so well but it seems so strange
The wind blows cold
I remember when I thought your street was paved with gold
I walked along the street
A street I walked along many times before
The things have changed
Everything I knew was gone or rearranged

Julie don't live here anymore
She moved away many years before
How can it be, this I can't believe
Julie don't live here anymore

I walked up to your door
Last night I saw your face in the window
But it was different now
The lonely light where we used to be quite gone

I though about your smile
Your laughing eyes and the things you said to me
I felt so sorry for you
For all the nights we spent hanging around with nothing else to do

Julie don't live here anymore
She moved away many years before
How can it be, this I can't believe
Julie don't live here anymore

Julie don't live here anymore
She moved away many years before
How can it be, this I can't believe
Julie don't live here anymore

Julie don't live here anymore
Julie don't live here anymore
Julie don't live here anymore
