All Night Long

[Blackmore/Glover]

You're walking up with your eyes on me
It's looking good but I just don't know
I need a girl who can keep her head
All night long
You didn't came just to see the show
I guess you know what you wanna see
The way you smile lets me know
I can't go wrong
I wanna touch you
I wanna feel you
I wanna make you mine

I wanna love you all night long
I wanna be with you all night long
I wanna love you all night long
I wanna be with you all night long

I saw you standing down by the stage
Your black stockings and you see - through dress
Your mouth is open but I don't wanna hear you
Say goodnight
You're sort of young but you're over age
I don't care 'cause I like your style
I don't know about your brain but
You look all right
I wanna touch you
I wanna feel you
I wanna make you mine

I wanna love you all night long
I wanna be with you all night long
I wanna love you all night long
I wanna be with you all night long

Your mind is dirty but your hands are clean
You show no class but your legs are long
I know I can't stand another night
On my own
Hey girl would you like some wine
What's your name are you by yourself
Are you the one what do you say
Can I take you home
I wanna touch you
I wanna feel you
I wanna make you mine

I wanna love you all night long
I wanna be with you all night long
I wanna love you all night long
I wanna be with you all night long

Eyes Of The World

[Blackmore/Glover]

I see the innocent victims
Fighting to get to his door
No chain of events
Can settle him down
He's not a man anymore
Evil moves, evil ways
Without seeing at all
You ain't got a lot to say
Judging by the things you do
If only you could feel the tears and pain
In the eyes of the world
Dust to dust by the million
Broken dreams in the ground
Aching heart in the heartbeat of home
Where their spirits are gone
Evil takes, evil kills
With no shame or concern
Killing me, killing you
Watch the end of the burn
Maybe you didn't understand
We don't need you anymore
If only you could see the tears and pain
In the eyes of the world
And in the name of religion
For me gave him our soul
The clock with chime
Every second in my heart
For it's taken it's toll
Evil moves, evil ways
With his back to the wall
Evil man look at him down
Without seeing at all
Eyes of the world
Don't wanna, don't wanna cry no more
Eyes of the world
In the eyes
Eyes of the world
You ain't got a lot to say
Eyes of the world
Got to got to feel this way
Eyes of the world
Oh
Eyes of the world
We don't need you anymore
Eyes of the world
If only you could feel the tears and pain
In the eyes of the world

No Time To Lose

[Blackmore/Glover]

The other family get no sleep
Somewhere down the love got to take and keep
Think about the future, nothing in the past
God, things never last

Come on, come on, come on
Take your love
Get down, get down, get down
Down the road

It ain't no lie
You're hurting
And you don't know why
No time to lose
We get no time to lose
No time to lose
No time to lose

Ever had the feeling something's going wrong
Hanging round a lover where you don't belong
Waiting for a reason, lookin' for a clue
But you know what you gotta do

Come on, come on, come on
Take your love
Get down, get down, get down
Down the road

It ain't no lie
You're hurting
And you don't know why
You got no time to lose
We get no time to lose
No time to lose
No time to lose

Your brothers at the bar
There girls in the car
Your sister's on the telephone
that ain't low
Your mother's going blue
Your dad is going grey
There's nothing here for you to stay

Come on, come on, come on
Take your love
Get down, get down, get down
Get down that road, get down you

It ain't no lie
You're hurting
And you don't know why
No time to lose
No time to lose
You gonna have to choose
You go and shake the blues
Oh oh you got no time to lose
You got to choose
No time to lose

Makin' Love

[Blackmore/Glover]

I was always on the wilder side
Chasing love away
Love was something for romantic fools
Just a game how to play

How can I deny my heart
When my love is blind
I got no choice
I've gone too far
I lose my mind
When we're makin' love
When we're makin' love

When I look into your magic eyes
The mirror of my love
I like to see you
Smiling back at me
It makes me feel so good

Need to keep you satisfied
The only way I know
And all the cares I cannot hide
Will never show
When we're makin' love
Woh makin' love

Don't believe that I'm a liar
But I can't get enough
Never knew I could be higher
Just by makin' love

How can I deny my heart
When my love is blind
I got no choice
I've gone too far
I lose my mind
When we're makin' love
When we're makin' love

Don't believe that I'm a liar
But I can't get enough
Never knew I could be higher
Just by makin' love

Oh oh oh yeah oh makin' love
Oh makin' love
Makin' love
Coming to you
Makin' love
With nothing to do
Makin' love
Makin' love
Makin' love
Makin' love

Since You Been Gone

[Ballard]

I get the same old dreams same time everynight
Fall to the ground and I wake up
So I get out of bed, put on my shoes and in my head
Thoughts fly back to the breakup

These four wall are closing in
Look at the fix you put me in

Since you been gone
Since you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
Could I be wrong
But since you been gone
You cast your spell so break it
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Since you been gone

So in the night I stand beneath the backstreet light
I read the words that you sent to me
I can take the afternoon, the night time comes around
too soon
You can't know what you mean to me

Your poison letter, your telegram
Just goes to show you don't give a damn

Since you been gone
Since you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
Could I be wrong
But since you been gone
You cast your spell so break it
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Since you been gone

If you will come back
Baby, you know you'll never do wrong

Since you been gone
Since you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
Could I be wrong
But since you been gone
You cast your spell so break it
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Ever since you been gone

Since you been gone
Since you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
Since you been gone
Since you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it

Love's No Friend

[Blackmore/Glover]

Well I don't need much
But I need a friend
Or did you got time for me
Ain't no trouble with you're always down
To find a friend in misery

But that's allright
That's allright
Ain't gonna fall for the line

That's allright
That's allright
Don't need no sun to shine
When love's no friend of mine

I've been so down I've been on my knees
Just don't seem to feel no pain
Natural loser I've been on the run
Got no shelter from the rain

That's allright
That's allright
Ain't gonna fall for the line

That's allright
That's allright
Don't need no sun to shine
No cause love's no friend of mine

Learn to live wether climb above my head
Got no shame, got no pride
If you need affection
Don't knock on my door
Got no feelings left inside

But that's allright
That's allright
Ain't gonna fall for the line

That's allright
That's allright
Don't need no sun to shine
Cause love's no friend
Cause love's no friend
Ah no friend of mine
Love's no friend of mine

Danger Zone

[Blackmore/Glover]

Shaking off the tresholds of a long forgotten dream
And you just can't make it last
Coaching paradise on a personal line
But you get fired to fast
And you lie, memories drifting by

Love don't make it on those pin-striped nights
When you're looking through someone's disguise
You can't make it alone, so you gotta make a move
But you're looking at nobody's eyes
Well that's love, or maybe love come and go

Looking for love is a danger zone
Love don't go begging in the danger zone
You won't get nothing from the danger zone

Tales that you tell from the stories that you'll hear
And you'll get what you can while you may
Don't understand when you're looking for a dame
But it's only a heartbreak away
And you'll learn, faking has no return

No way when you're feeling that way
Will your feet get caught up in the crowd
And the song that you sing is too soft to be heard
But your speakers are way too loud
Like the pain, loving is no big game

Looking for love is a danger zone
No don't go living in the danger zone
You won't get nothing from the danger zone
Don't take no chances in the danger zone
Love don't go begging in the danger zone

No don't go living in the danger zone
You won't get nothing from the danger zone
Don't take no chances in the danger zone
Love don't go begging in the danger zone

Lost In Hollywood

[Blackmore/Glover/Powell]

Gotta get a message through
Cause I think I'm losing you
Am I too late
Drinking habit's a loose sometime
I gotta know if you're still mine
And I can't wait
Last time I saw your face
You tried to hide the tears
But I could see the trace
I'd be there if I could
But it's so far away from home
Lost in Hollywood

In the dark the vultures wait
I can hear them
Knocking at my gate
But I'm not here
The brew was cold
The meat is stale
In the L.A. night the sirens wail
The song you can feel
Pale stars that never shine
Scotch and the whiskey
And the Rainbow local wine
She's done more bad than good
I gotta get away somehow
Lost in Hollywood

On the streets the sun is fine
Don't you feel the advantage hit your mind
Feels all right oh yeah
But I'm a lover
Like a loaded gun
Chasing shadows on the run
Out in the night
I'm gonna lose control
If I been losing you
To pay for rock'n'roll
Get back I know I should
Gotta get back home to you
You don't know what I been through
But there's nothing I can do
Lost in Hollywood
