1. JOHNNY MAKE BELIEVE

Waitress, more wine
We celebrate, the life and times of Johnny Make Believe
He was the greatest liar, of all mankind
The biggest drunk, you ever saw alive
He was a devil, undisguised
He will be sorely missed tonight

And the next day, will never be the same
Without the beautiful Johnny Make Believe

So let's get high, laugh till we cry
Always remember, his last words
"Farewell cruel world, all you pretty girls,
Don't send me flowers, hold me in your dreams"
And then the spirit in the bottle
Took our Johnny for a ride
Come on waitress, pour us more wine
To drown our grief
For Johnny Make Believe

He tattooed my heart, branded my soul
He said: Go for true love, not for fool's gold

So let's get high, laugh till we cry
Always remember, his last words
"Farewell cruel world, all you pretty girls
Don't send me flowers, hold me in your dreams"
And then the spirit in the bottle
Took our Johnny for a ride
Come on waitress, pour us more wine
To drown our grief
For Johnny Make Believe

La, la, la, lala, la, la, la, la....


2. MINUTE BY MINUTE

The first time I laid my eyes on you
You happened to glance the other way
But by the look of your lazy smile
I knew I had a chance some way
I knew there would be a role for me
To play in a wild wild fantasy

Now I'm takin' it day by day
Cause you got my head spinnin' round
Minute by minute
I'm countin' the seconds down
Until the time comes
For me to hold you in my arms
Minute by minute
Until we become one

Here's a man with a hole in his heart
Dyin' to get it fixed
And complications from the start
Make it an operation of high risk
I need an operation, doctor, doctor
Don't cut out my wild, wild fantasy

Now I'm takin' it day by day
Cause you got my head spinnin' round
Minute by minute
I'm countin' the seconds down
Until the time comes
For me to hold you in my arms
Minute by minute
Until we become one


3. SPACESHIP (SPECIAL VIDEO REMIX)

I remember it happened, late one night
No moon, no stars
No sound, no light
I was young and scared
And afraid of the dark
When I saw that space ship
Shaped like a heart

When the years go by, just like a shot
I was way too busy, growing up
I was datin' girls, so I forgot
All about that space ship, shaped like a heart

Well I woke up one morning, feelin' fed up and lost
Runnin' out of luck, desperate for love
And there she was, I kid you not
That space ship, shaped like a heart

Blindin' my eyes, cloudin' my sight
Givin' me hope it would be all right
Space ship shaped like a heart
I saw it in your eyes, and in the way you smile
Right from the start

Space ship shaped like a heart
Don't wanna ask me why
Don't wanna say goodbye
To that heart in the sky
I was standin' by the window
We just made love
I was comin' down
From the push and shove
I was lookin' up
I saw a spark
It was a space ship
Shaped like a heart


4. HOLD ME NOW (SPECIAL VIDEO REMIX)

Dreaming 'bout the future and drinkin' on the past
Thinkin' 'bout the things that been forgotten
Tryin' to remember and tryin' to forget
That my life is empty without you
Sayonara, close your eyes now little girl
'Cause tomorrow hides a whole different world

Hold me now, you gotta guide me through the night
Hold me now, make my ice-cold blood turn warm

Talkin' 'bout our friends in love
Our friends with broken hearts
The one's I always keep forgiving
That funny angel shot a poison pointed dart
Tonight I wanna keep on living
For your love, close your eyes now little girl
'Cause tomorrow's hidin' a whole different world

Hold me now, you gotta guide me trough the night
Hold me now, and make it last forever
Hold me now, be my guide just for a while
Hold me now and make my ice-cold blood turn warm
