How can I just let you walk away, just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking every breath with you, ooh
You're the only one who really knew me at all
How can you just walk away from me, when all I can do is watch you leave
Cos we've shared the laughter and the pain and even shared the tears
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now, oh there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me, just the memory of your face
Ooh take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against all odds
and that's what I've got to face
I wish I could just make you turn around, turn around and see me cry
There's so much I need to say to you, so many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me, just the memory of your face
Now take a look at me now, cos there's just an empty space
But to wait for you, is all I can do and that's what I've got to face
Take a good look at me now, cos I'll still be standing here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
It's the chance I've gotta take
Take a look at me now
2. Violet And Blue
So where have you gone
Have you gone so far from the eyes that
Speak trouble and even when the warning is
Overwhelming...
Well it's hard to hide from
Eyes that are all over you
That only some
Make you lose your composure
"Well it's hard on my heart"
Said, "Well open your eyes"
"It gets harder every day"
Said, "I need to know now"
Soon you will be gone
Take your violet and blue mornings with you
So you hide out
Like you think that you never left
Tried to tell him that his heart is in his hands
Ten thousand times
I tried to tell you
When you close your eyes
Well I can't see inside you
With the touch of your hand
Well it starts again
Even though the warning is...
So we both play
It gets under your skin
And we both the love the road
But the roads are different
Take it with you
Make you lose your composure...
It's overwhelming
Written by stevie nicks.
Even when the warning is
Even when the warning is
So where have you gone
Have you gone so far from the eyes that
Speak trouble and even when the warning is
Overwhelming
Well its hard to hide from
Eyes that are all over you
That only some
Make you lose your composure
"well its hard on my heart"
Said, "well open your eyes"
"yeah, it gets harder every day"
Said, "i need to know now "
Soon you will be gone
Take your violet and blue
Mornings with you
Ooh woo ooh ooh
Ooh woo ooh ooh
So you hide out
Like you think that you never left
Tried to tell him that his heart is in his hands
Ooh, yes
"well its hard on my heart"
He said, "open your eyes"
"yeah, it gets harder every day"
He said, "i need to know that"
Soon you will be gone
Take your violet and blue
Mornings with you
Ooh woo ooh ooh
Ooh woo ooh ooh
Ten thousand times
Oh I tried to tell you
When you close your eyes
Well I cant see inside you
With the touch of your hand
Well it starts again
Whoa yeah!
Every though the warning is
So we both play
It gets under your skin
And we both the love the road
But the roads are different
"you know its hard on my heart"
Ooh, he says "open your eyes"
"yeah, it gets harder every day"
He says, "i need to know"
Soon you will be gone
Take your violet and blue
Morning with you

Take it with you baby
Ooh take it with you ah!
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Make you lose your composure
Ooh, its overwhelming

Oh, its overwhelming
3. Walk Through The Fire
Walk through the fire
Walk through the fire (walk through the fire)
Through the dust and ashes
While the building crashes
Walk through the flame (walk through the fire)
No trace of indecision
Lion keep his vision clear
Moving out
Across the water
The wet leaves quiver in the heat
Darkness heavy on my shoulder
Smell the smoke, sickly sweet
The body's weak, the shadow's strong
Walk through the fire (walk through the fire)
Through the dust and ashes
While the building crashes
Walk through the flame (walk through the fire)
Lion show no sign of fear
Walk through the fire (walk through the fire)
Through the dust and ashes
While the building crashes
Walk through the flame (walk through the fire)
No time for doubt or caution
Taken by the strong emotion
Walk through the fire (walk through the fire)
No trace of indecision
Lion hold his vision clear
(Walk, walk, walk)
Walk through the fire (walk through the fire)
Walking in the path of angel
Walk on down below, walk on down below
Walk on down below, walk on down below
4. Balcony
eave lads, an audience awaits
Heave lads, the final scene is set
Heave lads, curtains clear the debt
Waiting in empty halls
Smiling between the walls
This is my finest hour
Now is your last encore
Sweat boys, the lines are flowing fast
Sweat boys, the cue has come at last
Sweat boys, tonight is just the past
Listen the bullet calls
Herald a great man's fall
This is my finest hour
Now is your last encore
5. Making A Big Mistake
Did you ever wonder
Just who's in control
Underneath the surface
Feel a different world
I feel the knife in my shoulder
But it doesn't hurt at all
I'll still be the loser
Whichever way I fall
It's just a dream that I had and I'm making a big mistake
It's just a dream that I had and I'm making a big mistake
It's just a dream that I had and I'm making a big mistake
It's just a dream that I had and I'm making a big mistake
I don't think you care
Just what's goin' on
They get some information for you
Don't stay too long
I can do what I want to
And I could say what's in my mind
I've gotta make some decisions
I'm running out of time
It's just a dream that I had and I'm making a big mistake
It's just a dream that I had and I'm making a big mistake
It's just a dream that I had and I'm making a big mistake
It's just a dream that I had and I'm making a big mistake
It's just a dream that I had and I'm making a big mistake
It's just a dream that I had and I'm making a big mistake
6. My Male Curiosity
I can't deny we've had some good times
We were like a bike built for two
But I can't lie to you, the rumour's comin' true, oh
Another girl's arousing my....curiosity,
Another girl's arousing my....(male)curiosity
And there's not a thing that I can do
I thought my ways, would change around you
I was wrong, hound dogs can't be tamed
It's been a pleasure loving you,
But now the pleasure's through
Another girl's arousing my....curiosity,
Another girl's arousing my....(male)curiosity
And there's not a thing that I can do
Except tell you that my thoughts are of you or
Though I've chased them away or
Yes it's true I guess I'll always love you or
You were difficult to replace or
I can't deny we've had some good times
Hangin out without parachutes
Oh, but if I stay with you, (When did I ask you to?)
I'd have to cut myself in two oh
Another girl's arousing my....curiosity,
Another girl's arousing my....(male)curiosity
And there's not a thing that I can do
(Instrumental Interlude)
It's been a pleasure loving you, (can't say the same to you)
But now the pleasure's through
Another girl's arousing my curiosity,
Another girl's arousing my (male) curiosity
And there's not a thing that I can do
And there's not a thing that I can do
And there's not a thing that I can do

Walk through the fire
Walk through the fire (walk through the fire)
Through the dust and ashes
While the building crashes
Walk through the flame (walk through the fire)
No trace of indecision
Lion keep his vision clear
Moving out
Across the water
The wet leaves quiver in the heat
Darkness heavy on my shoulder
Smell the smoke, sickly sweet
The body's weak, the shadow's strong
Walk through the fire (walk through the fire)
Through the dust and ashes
While the building crashes
Walk through the flame (walk through the fire)
Lion show no sign of fear
Walk through the fire (walk through the fire)
Through the dust and ashes
While the building crashes
Walk through the flame (walk through the fire)
No time for doubt or caution
Taken by the strong emotion
Walk through the fire (walk through the fire)
No trace of indecision
Lion hold his vision clear
(Walk, walk, walk)
Walk through the fire (walk through the fire)
Walking in the path of angel
Walk on down below, walk on down below
Walk on down below, walk on down below
4. Balcony
eave lads, an audience awaits
Heave lads, the final scene is set
Heave lads, curtains clear the debt
Waiting in empty halls
Smiling between the walls
This is my finest hour
Now is your last encore
Sweat boys, the lines are flowing fast
Sweat boys, the cue has come at last
Sweat boys, tonight is just the past
Listen the bullet calls
Herald a great man's fall
This is my finest hour
Now is your last encore
