@ALBUM: Heartbeat City 1984 Elektra Records All songs by Ric Ocasek unless noted. ------------------------------------------------ @SONG: Hello Again You might have forgot The journey ends You tied your knots You made your friends You left the scene Without a trace One hand on the ground One hand in space You passed on mercy You tried the rest You gave your body You gave your best Staring at the green door Living in the sky You don't want to know it You just want to fly CHORUS Hello, hello, hello Hello again Hello, hello, hello Hello again I know you're a dreamer Who's under the gun I know you're a dreamer Who's only just begun CHORUS And when there's nothing Nothing left to lose You leave it all To fade to blue You want to feel electric You want to feel loose You want to be eclectic You want to calla truce Look at the profile Staring at the flame Waiting for the sunshine Standing in the rain CHORUS ------------------------------------- @SONG: Looking for Love Come on lover Make the switch Pull the cover Make a wish Find out later It's all right Keep the faith Kill the light CHORUS You can't stop But you can't go on You can't stop But it won't be long Here she comes Looking for love Come on lover Do it fast Take advantage While love lasts Limited edition You're the one Walking the edge Don't you run CHORUS --------------------------------- @SONG: Magic Summer turns me upside down Summer summer summer It's like a merry-go-round I see you under the midnight All shackles and bows How far will you take it Well no one knows Don't let me go I got a hold on you tonight CHORUS Oh oh it's magic When I'm with you Oh oh it's magic You know it's true Got a hold on you Twisted under sideways down I know you're getting twisted And you can't calm down I see you under the midnight Love darts in your eyes How far can you take it Till you realize There's magic in your eyes CHORUS -------------------------------------- @SONG: Drive Who's gonna tell you when It's too late Who's gonna tell you things Aren't so great You can't go on Thinking nothing's wrong Who's gonna drive you home tonight Who's gonna pick you up When you fall Who's gonna hang it up When you call Who's gonna pay attention To your dreams Who's gonna plug their ears When you scream You can't go on Thinking nothing's wrong Who's gonna drive you home tonight Who's gonna hold you down When you shake Who's gonna come around When you break You can't go on Thinking nothing's wrong Who's gonna drive you home tonight ---------------------------------------------- @SONG: Stranger Eyes You took the fall You floated down You took the jump You feel through clouds You watched the world Beat the crowd CHORUS Come on ride me high Stranger eyes You took the fall You landed soft Thought to yourself Well I'm not alone With your dark red soul And your chaperone CHORUS Well I need your touch It means so much CHORUS ------------------------------------- @SONG: You Might Think You might think I'm crazy To hang around with you Maybe you think I'm lucky To have something to do But I think that you're wild And inside me is some child CHORUS You might think it's foolish Or maybe it's untrue You might think I'm crazy But all I want is you You might think it's hysterical But I know when you're weak You think you're in the movies And everything's so deep But I think that you're wild When you flash that fragile smile CHORUS And it's hard so hard to take There's no escape without a scrape You kept it going till the sun fell down You kept it going You might think I'm delirious The way I run you down But somewhere sometime When you're curious I'll be back around And I think that you're wild And so uniquely styled CHORUS ---------------------------------------------- @SONG: It's Not the Night (Ric Ocasek/Greg Hawkes) It's not the night For fooling It's not the night For crazy eyes I get the feeling You want to stay I get the feeling You're giving it all away But I know I know you take it well And for you For you I always fell CHORUS It's not the night For sweet revenge It's not the night To end The time is right To take it out The time is right for tango I get the feeling You're running out Before your last fandango CHORUS I get the feeling You're the spark That's dancing in the dark I get the feeling You're the one Rushing on the run CHORUS ------------------------------------ @SONG: Why Can't I Have You Dreamy lips set in motion flashing Breathless hush pounding soft lasting Glossy mouth taste untamed moving Carousel up and down Just like you CHORUS Oh baby Just one more time to touch you Just one more time to tell you You're on my mind Baby, why can't I have you You're breaking my heart in two You know what I'm going through Oh baby, why can't I have you Candy smile all the while glinting Your eyes like mica lethal pout hinting Felt the pressure tight and warm softly striking I tripped and stumbled I cling forever I go all night CHORUS ------------------------------------------------------ @SONG: I Refuse Everything's heaven sent That's what you said and went Inisde your fairy glass Is something you think will last And when they crop you like a clown You got your smile on upside down CHORUS Baby I refuse You can pick or choose Find somebody else to use 'Cause I refuse to come along Everything's on a whim That's what you said to him Lying in wunderlust Are feelings you never trust And when they pamper you with ice I can't believe you don't think twice CHORUS Everyone makes the play With nothing much left to say All in an endless line Waiting for equal time They keep screaming it's the truth And you keep kneeling in the booth CHORUS --------------------------------------------- @SONG: Heartbeat City Oh Heartbeat City Here we come Well happy days We count on thumbs And nothing really Gets us down As long as Jacki's Back in town CHORUS I'm glad you made it I can't complain I missed you badly When you jumped that train Oh Jacki What took you so long On just a holiday Oh Jacki What took you so long I thought you knew the way I thought you blew away Oh Heartbeat City Never stops And all you need Is what you got And there's a place For everyone Under Heartbeat City's Golden sun CHORUS Oh Heartbeat City Lights aat night Keeps getting closer Out of sight Oh Heartbeat City's On the loose Better catch The blue caboose CHORUS -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Eric Wincentsen 267@ef.gc.maricopa.edu Glendale Community College, Glendale, Arizona "Who dares tow the van of
