road
Slave to the highway
King of the road

Chasing the sun as it sets in the sky
Swear that I'll catch it someday
Lights of the city behind
Are fading away

Making my way through the names on the map
There's no point in feeling alone
As long as I ride the open road
I'll always have a home

One for the road
Slave to the highway
King of the road

My future is calling, a cry in the wind
Leading me out of my past
Got no destination but know
That I'm going there fast

Crossed many miles, got so many to go
Each one calling my name
Won't settle down and you know
I'll never be tamed

One for the road
Slave to the highway
One for the road
Slave to the highway

Just a slave to the highway



Cold hearted woman

(Blackmore/White)

Well, she came from across the water
A devil's daughter was in disguise
I cried for mercy, she bound and chained me
And then she played me, I was mesmerized

When she gave me blood red roses
They were wrapped in razor thorns
She was sly in her temptation
Then she left me on my own

Such a cold hearted woman

She promised passion everlasting
And now I'm haunted by her name
I gave up all that I ever cared for
Oh, if I only had my yesterdays again

I've been blinded, now I'm broken
Sometimes I can hear her song
No man's grass was ever greener
Now I find that I don't belong

With a cold hearted woman
So cold

She touched my world and I was shaken
But she was faking, I never knew
These days are colder and there's no shoulder
I'm just the shell of the man I was before

If there's somewhere I can run to
'Till I kill the pain inside
I've been walking now for hours
Can't forget her, the lord knows I've tried

'Cause she's a cold
Cold hearted woman, you know she is
Such a cold hearted woman
Cold hearted woman

Daddy said, my momma said:
"Don't you fall no more
For a cold hearted woman"
Cold hearted woman

Leave me cold, leave me cold
Leave me lying and telling
You really don't care
Cold hearted woman



Hunting humans (insatiable)

(Blackmore/White)

Justify, speak the lies
Close your eyes as we make love
Touch my skin, let the fun begin
Once again I hear your cries

Rise, oh, rise

Feel the nails, tell tale trails
Across my spine, it's beautiful
Silken kiss on a night like this
Who would miss our final hour?

Closer still, close your eyes
See my world, it's animal

Insatiable

Velvet glove, unrequited love
Find the words and make them rhyme
One last dance, hypnotizing trance
A knowing glance, I loved you

Closer still, lose your will
See my world, it's criminal

Insatiable
Insatiable

Things we hide, keep them out of sight
Heard it said, it's unbearable
Feel my pain, taste my shame
Who's to blame? Inexcusable

Closer still, close your eyes
See my world of natural
Closer still, close your eyes
See my world, insaniable

Closer still, close your eyes
See my world, turn it, turn it
Closer still, lose your will
See my world, burn it, burn it

Closer still, close your eyes
See my world, insatiable

Insatiable



Stand and fight

(Blackmore/White)

Can't say something if the words ain't there
What you trying to do?
Money can't buy me out of trouble I'm in
I've been messing with the likes of you

It's been so long since I left my home
Looks like I lost my way
Tried so hard just to make it work
You just turn around and walk away

Something's got to give
I ain't gonna leave
No, no, no, time to dig down deep

If you wanna get out of this old town alive
Oh, you gotta stand and fight

So infuriating now
The way you twist my words
I know you got your problems, girl
And it seems every day that they're getting much worse

I hear you screaming for attention
You say your life's a mess
Something else to cry about
Ooh, now baby, just get on with it

You know that something's got to give
I tell you, I ain't gonna leave
No, no, no, time to dig down deep

If you wanna get out of this old town alive
Babe, you gotta stand and fight

And I say that something's got to give
I tell you, I ain't gonna leave
No, no, no, time to dig down deep

If you wanna get out of this old town alive
Babe, you gotta stand and fight

Stand and fight, lord of mercy
Dig, dig, dig down deep, now babe

Something's got to give
I ain't gonna leave
No, no, no, it's time to dig down deep

If you wanna get out of this old town alive
Babe, you gotta stand and fight, yes, you do

I know your life's a mess
Because you're doing obsessed
You gotta do your best

Stand and fight
Stand and fight
You gotta dig down deep
Dig down deep and stand and fight

You gotta stand and fight
You gotta stand and fight
You gotta stand and fight
You gotta stand and fight

You gotta stand and fight
You gotta stand and fight
You gotta stand and fight
You gotta stand and fight

You gotta stand and fight tonight
Stand and fight

You gotta dig down deep
Dig down deep and stand and fight
You gotta dig down deep
Dig down deep and stand and fight



Ariel

(Blackmore/Night)

I search for her in the dead of night
A silhouette lit by candle light
In a whispered word she is gone

Familiar stranger without a name
In a darkened room they all look the same
Like the sands of time she slips away

So far away

In the mirror you can see her face
She's an angel dressed in the blackest lace
A sip of wine and the game can begin

Just an image lost in fantasy
Then you touch her and you can't break free
'Till you see your fate written there in her eyes

Oh, Ariel

Lost in a distant dream
Take me home, Ariel

I'm so lost in a distant dream
Take me home, Ariel

Oh, Ariel

I'm so lost in a distant dream
Take me home, Ariel

Lost, I'm so lost
My Ariel
I'm so lost, so far from my home
Ariel



Too late for tears

(Blackmore/White/Regan)

Well, I'm moving faster, close to the edge
As I smoke a pack of strong cigarettes
When my fears run dry you won't see me cry
'Cause I know I got it coming

Well, we touched the sun and went on our way
And we asked the stars to come out to play
But you said goodnight when they lost their light
And my world stopped spinning 'round

What are we fighting for?
Don't you know that no one wins?
What are we fighting for?
Just give up and I'll give in

It's too late for tears
Well, it's much too, much too late

When the things you need are things you don't want
And you take the needle right to the point
I'd be heaven bound but you shoot, shoot me down
Leave me broke and bleeding on the killing floor

What are we fighting for?
Don't you know that no one wins?
What are we fighting for?
Just give up and I'll give in

It's too late for tears
Well, it's much too, much too
It's too late for tears
Well, it's much too, much too late

What are we fighting for?
Don't you know that no one wins?
What are we fighting for?
Just give up and I'll give in

It's too late for tears
Telling you - it's much too, much too late
It's too late for tears
Yeah, it's much too, much too late

It's too late for your tears

Much too, much too, much too late
Tell me, baby - why you make me wait?
Watch you drown deep deep in your fears
It's too late for tears

Watching the fears run dry
And they shoot, shoot, shoot me down
I won't be around
Touch the sun, make the run

Much too, much too, much too late
Much too, much too, much too late
Much too, much too, much too late
Much too, much too, much too late



Black masquerade

(Blackmore/Morris/White/Night)

I know the key to secrets never told
They're hidden in your soul
Feelings you hide, never wanting me to find
Oh, they've always been mine

Release all the madness within
Let it all begin
Now you'll see, oh, the dark side of me
In our black masquerade

Let the moonlight surround you
The game that we play is the black masquerade

The full moon unmasks the stranger in us all
And the cruel world takes its toll
The shadow is cast on who you used to be
Oh, let me set you free

Come now, oh, come take my hand
Then you'll understand
We'll go to that forbidden land
Of our black masquerade

Let the darkness surround you
The game that we play is the black masquerade

Release all the madness within
Let it all begin
We'll go to that forbidden land
Come, let me take you there

Let the moonlight surround you
Don't be afraid, it's the black masquerade



Silence

(Blackmore/White)

You say you want your freedom
It all gets a bit out of hand
Caught in the ocean as I'm watching you breathe
We all believe what we wanted to belive

That's the silence of love
Silence of love

You say all you want is money
You scream for a little bit more
Caught in a landslide as we're stumbling on
Who'd say we're right but who would say we're wrong?

In the silence of love
Silence of our love

You say you need someone to hold you
You say that you're feeling afraid
I know the worst part of being alone
Is a book full of numbers with no one to phone

That's the silence, the silence of love
Silence of love

Can you hear it now?
That's the silence of city alone
That's the silence of love



Hall of the mountain king

(Grieg, arranged by Night/Blackmore)

Mysteries of ages told
Stories now will unfold
Tales of mystic days of old
Are hidden in these walls

Hear the witches play their tunes
Sing their songs to the moon
As they play the night will move
In the hall of the mountain king

Wild child, so innocent
You took that away

Thoughts of wonder and surprise
Hide themselves in your eyes
As the smoke begins to rise
Inside the mountain halls

Ancient tales of witches love
Answers lie through that door
All you'd ever want and more
Is calling for you now

Through darkend corridors
Try but you cannot break free
You took her innocence
Now you will answer to me

I am the mountain king
Are you not afraid?
I am the mountain king
Listen to the bells

In a midnight fantasy
More than any eye can see
Hear them laughing crazily
It's out of your control

Mysteries of ages told
Stories now will unfold
Tales of mystic days of old
Are hidden in these walls

Through darkend passages
Run but you cannot escape
You took her innocence
And for this crime you must pay

I am the mountain king
Are you not afraid?

I am the king
Lost in the world
Never see the sun
Never see the moon

Give it to me
Give it to me
I want your dignity

Lost in the world
Lost in the world
Take you away



Still I'm sad

(Samwell-Smith/Mc Carthy)

See the stars come falling down from the sky
Gently passing they kiss your teardrops dry
See the wind come softly blow your hair from your face
And the rain comes falling down in its crazy way

Still I'm sad

For myself, my tears just fall in the dust
As I search in the night and find they are lost
See the wind come gently blow time into my heart
And the rain comes falling down while we're apart

Still I'm sad
Still I'm sad

See the stars come falling down from the sky
Gently passing they kiss your teardrops goodbye
See the wind come softly blow hair from your face
And the rain will come falling down in its crazy way

Still I'm sad
Still I'm sad
