Sing a song of love to me
Sing out, sing out
She's the one who made me free
Sing out, sing out

'Cos she made me smile
And she made me love
Oh she made me laugh
And she made me dance
Bombo!

Little pearl inside the shell
Come out, come out
From deep down in my wishing well
Sing out, sing out

'Cos you made me smile
And you made me love
And you made me laugh
And you made me dance

Bombo!

Touche D'amour
Yours is a sunny day
Of this I'm sure
Blowing my clouds away

I just don't know what this could do to me
I only want it to be
Touche D'amour
Touche D'amour
Sailing around the room like never before
Could never have come too soon
I want this dance to last forever
For it to last forever more
Touche D'amour

And now the day is over
And the shadows start to grow
The sun has done us well today
In flaming crimson he explodes
And bursts of million colours
That spill across the sky
I turn and look at you love
And I know the reason why
Such a long time
Like good wine
Getting better every day
Now you know, I'll never go
So you'll always stay

And our love will keep on shining
Through the wind and the rain
And when the day is over
Our love will shine again
And as the years fly over
I'm feeling younger every day
The love that you have given me
Is more than I can say

Shine, shine, shine

Sleep tonight little girl
Go right in through
No-one can wake you now
You're falling through your dreams
Sliding down every beam
'Cos you don't know how

Don't know how to hurt
Don't know how to lie
You just don't know how to do it
You couldn't if you tried
'Cos you're wired to the moon

You innocent light
Will be shadows too soon
Sleep little angel
Stay wired to the moon

Faraway in the night
I saw my mother
She was looking at you
She said to me "My son
Don't you wake that little girl
Though I know you're wanting to
'Cos you're wanting to laugh
And you're wanting to play
Leave her in sweet dreams
She may lose them one day
Keep her wired to the moon"

Like a girl I once knew
She was once happy too
Sleep little angel
Stay wired to the moon

Set my sails out on a sunny day
Pretty soon I was on my way
Though what for sure it was
I could not say

Two thousand reasons
Maybe more
Eight hundred chances on faraway shores
Searching for something
Searching for more
Deep down inside me burning
Reasons for the learning

Now you can pick up reasons so easily
Where you've been and where you've got to be
And when the truth don't show you'll always see
Lots of reasons

And pretty soon you've got a heavy load
Dragging those reasons down an endless road
I got to thinking and I got to see
So many reasons coming at me

The one that leaves you high and dry
He says you still owe him, there's a reason why
He'll leave you crying till the tears run dry
He's the one, always the one with all the reasons
So many reasons the come and they go
The reasons for them I'll never know
I've seen so many, they've come and they've gone
I've turned all mine in and I'm happy with one

So don't talk of friendship, do it to me
Make me an offer and make it for free
Don't give me reasons 'cos I wrote that song
I only want love now so I'll just take the one

Could it be just that I'm crazy
Could it be the way I feel this time of year
When a certain situation seems to bring the best out of me
I don't care

When she's standing close beside me
Something turns inside me
Brings my senses to the point of no return

And I don't know what it is but I love
And I don't know what it is but I want it to stay
And I love it

And it seems to be around me
Even though no-one can see
They seem to care
When a certain situation seems to bring the best out of me
I don't care

When she's standing close beside me
Something turns inside me
Brings my senses to the point of no return

And I don't know what it is but I love
And I don't know what it is but I want it to stay
And I love it

Could this be true, could this be me?
the one who kept himself so high and free.
Caught up in the highest game of all
and all my defences tumble and fall.
And only the ace of hearts can save me now.
(Ace of hearts).

I wake in early hours and I call your name.
And it's your face I see pressed up against my window pane.
And suddenly I realise
as the tears start to flow like rain from the sky
only the ace of hearts can save my now.

Ace of hearts, tell me what's this game you're playing.
Ace of hearts, it's all down to you, yeah.
I'm lost, lost like a child in a strange dream.
but open your doors and pull me...
pull me...
pull me through...

And I am flying like the wind in the dead of night.
I flying so high, searching for them landing lights.
I've never been this way before,
but darling all I need your love more and more.
Only the ace of hearts can save me now.

I said only the ace of hearts can save me now.
I said only the ace of hearts can save me now.

(ooo, ace of hearts)
(ooo, ace of hearts)
only the ace of hearts
(ooo, ace of hearts)
can save me now
(ooo, ace of hearts)
only the ace hearts
(ooo, ace of hearts)
(ooo, ace of hearts)
only the ace of hearts can save me now
(ooo, ace of hearts)

I see you laughing up at me, and I can't hide
What it is that you can see
I guess that's why
I'm holding out my love for you
And when you turn it around
In different ways
The answers turn around and fly away

I see you laughing up at me
And I can't hide
What it is that you can see
I guess that's why
I'm holding out my love for you

A lifelong history
Of trust in vain
I lead the fools' parade
Out in the rain

I see you laughing up at me
'Cos you don't seem to care
But oh how happy I can be
When you are there

That's why I'm holding out
My love for you

So you say that you are tired
And you wanna make a deal
The way the see you turn
Well that's not the way you feel
Well I got news for you sunshine
You may not understand
You're living in a poker game
And you've already shown your hand

So if you can't stand up
You'd better learn how to fall
One thing is for certain
Ain't no way out of here at all
'Cos we're winning
Now we've ironed out the edges
That your mother may have loved
Or someone you may have wanted
But you're now too way above

'Cos you're shining like a razor
And we're all waiting just for you
We took you up on what you said
Now let's see what you can do

And if you can't stand up
You'd better learn how to fall
One thing is for certain
Ain't no way out of here at all
'Cos we're winning
