TESTI CANZONI SPANDAU BALLET, TESTO ONCE MORE

I don't want to let you down
I just want the chance to turn myself around
I keep searching for the sound
I don't want to do you wrong
I just want to take us back where we belong
We were hot and we were oh so strong
Oh I know we will make it if we try
Reach for the stars and we can touch the sky
Darling, once more, won't you give me one more time
Say these words together
I need you more than ever
Trying once more
One more chance to make it right
Never say never, let's rise up together, take on the world
I don't want to change a thing
I don't want to change this whisper to a scream
Same old song in a different dream
Sorry I stole the show
I can't believe I had your heart and let it go
I always loved you but I didn't know
Oh there's nothing standing in our way
We've got the love but do we want to play
Darling, once more, won't you give me one more time
Say these words together
I need you more than ever
Trying once more
One more chance to make it right
Never say never, let's rise up together, take on the world

TESTI CANZONI SPANDAU BALLET, TESTO MISSIONARY

The bells ring out above my room
and announcement of our loss
and in the act three men decide
and indefinite epilogue.
My letters have all gone
a journey that's unsure
a message that was rich
a hand that was poor.
Oh have me breath and let me go
cause I don't want you to know
cause I don't want you to know.
Oh I don't want you, want you, want you.
My own description may have failed
torn from pictures that were saved
along with images from words
that were saved and not erased
the shelves arranged above my head
a memory of my fears
blankets hold the smell of life
and soak the many years.
Oh have me breath and let me go
cause I don't want you to know
cause I don't want you to know.
Oh I don't want you, want you, want you.
Oh missionary are you here.
Sun doesn't burn when the water comes
but water doesn't come like the English rain
they bury their heads for self defence
a marked improvement through diligence
we are alone against our sins
alone against our sins
alone against our sins.
Vacant rooms that are full of men
that sit on the stools awaiting time
discussion leads to little sense
they bury their heads for self defence
we are alone against our sins
alone against our sins
alone against our sins

obsession dies alone with tragedy

The rain has cleared the stains,no trace at all
she loved like diamond
she loved like diamond

TESTI CANZONI SPANDAU BALLET, TESTO COFFEE CLUB

Matthew didn't stay home,
he went abroad instead
journeys to glory breathing in his head
got caught up with shoe horns
but he could'nt get a shine
Matthew bought the rap
and read the map without a sign.
Contort yourself on disco
with a rap trap white and brown
caught within the spinning
the key-chain gang went down
no coffee club will have the rub
when product is your answer
discuss the man,he'll break your plan
it's deep within the dancer...
Wear it on your back now
and summerise your vision
on the train and through the strain
your own soul decision
well she had a certain shimmer
she sleeps with him tonight
stifled love decides where I'm dreaming...
No coffee club will have the rub
when product is your answer
discuss the man, he'll break your plan
it's deep within the dancer...

this is the sound
always slipping from my hands

take your seaside arms and write the next line
oh I want the truth to be said

She'll sing a "West-Side" song

Where are the "West-Side" boys?
Fighting on the scaffold of love

Here is her model home
listen to the call of the wild
Heaven is a secret

the shadow of a doubtful affair
scripted pleasures made forever
easier said than done together
Act One's the same as you read in the book
could this be the thing that they shout about?
No more in distress, now it's rushed through the door
and you can't believe that the secret's out
scripted pleasures made forever
easier said than done together.

it's a passion
it's a long way over there

you don't understand her.
Well it's the code of love
you could never ask for more.

he's bound to do what he's told
he ran back home with the message
screwed up in a pocket cold.

breaking down the walls of fears.

TESTI CANZONI SPANDAU BALLET, TESTO THROUGH THE BARRICADES

Mother doesn't know where love has gone
She says it must be youth
That keeps us feeeling strong
See it in her face, that's turned to ice
And when she smiles she shows
The lines of sacrifice
And now I know what they're saying
When the sun begins to fade
And we made our love on wasteland
And through the barricades
Father made my history
He fought for what he thought
Would set us somehow free
He tought me what to say in school
I learned off by heart
But now that's torn in two
And now I know what they're saying
In the music of the parade
We made our love on wasteland
And through the barricades
Born on different sides of life
We feel the same
And feel all of this strife
So come to me when I'm asleep
We'll cross the line
And dance upon the street
And now I know what they're saying
When the drums begin to fade
We made our love on wasteland
And through the barricades
Oh, turn around and I'll be there
There's a scar through my heart
But I'll bare it again
I thought we were the human race
But we were just another border-line-case
And the stars reach down and tell us
That there's always one escape
I don't know where love has gone
And in this trouble land
Desperation keep us strong
Fridays child is full of soul
With nothing left to lose
There's everything to go
And now I know what they're are saying
It's a terrible beauty we've made
So we make our love on wasteland
And through the barricades
Now I know what they're are saying
as hearts go to their graves
we made our love on wasteland
And through the barricades

Then our souls starts a-howling
And the show begins
Over where the city starts,
Something comes and slips into its heart
Snakes and lovers,
Try to shed our sins
We're undercover,
But it's slipped beneath our skins
Snakes and lovers,
Holding on in the night
Are you sleeping tight?
In our Garden of Eden,
With the poison in disguise
We had grown love together
In paradise
Now utopia's falling
And the messages are clear
That the evil is crawling,
And fear is near
Now temptation comes to try,
So I bite the apple of my eye
Snakes and lovers,
Try to shed our sins
We're undercover,
But it's slipped beneath our skins
Snakes and lovers,
Holding on in the night
Are you sleeping tight?
Now you're alone in your room,
And all of the walls they are turning
And down on the streets where I walk,
The light on my eyes it is burning
So come on and take me, my dear
And bear the fruits of what we know
Then our minds will be clear,
And our hearts will not let go
Just one more step and we will be over
Snakes and lovers,
Try to shed our sins
We're undercover,
But it's slipped beneath our skins
Snakes and lovers,
Holding on in the night
Are you sleeping tight?
Holding on in the night
Are you sleeping tight?

TESTI CANZONI SPANDAU BALLET, TESTO SWEPT

Be careful what you say,
Loose talk could sink this ship
Well the way that I am as weak as a lamb,
See it on my shaky lip
There's more to these actions,
That you could ever know
With the moon and the tide I'm drawn to your side
And moving with the flow
When it's time to choose and it's sink or swim,
I know I'll drown this time
When the cold wind blows and I'm falling in,
Throw the line
Now I'm swept,
And I'm lost within my mind
On a love that makes me blind
And this feeling I just can't forget,
Now I'm swept
On a tide that's in my soul
And this feeling that I have is losing me control
And I hope it doesn't end just yet,
Now I'm swept
Mind over matter,
No matter where this mind will be
There's more to be said, oh, for games in the head
Than anything you'll ever see
There's safety in dreaming,
So wrap me in things that I know
With my head in the sand,
I'm at your command
And moving with the flow
When it's time to choose and it's sink or swim,
I know I'll drown this time
When the cold wind blows and I'm falling in,
Throw the line
Now I'm swept,
And I'm lost within my mind
On a love that makes me blind
And this feeling I just can't forget,
Now I'm swept
On a tide that's in my soul
And this feeling that I have is losing me control
And I hope it doesn't end just yet,
Now I'm swept

TESTI CANZONI SPANDAU BALLET, TESTO FIGHT FOR OURSELVES

Everybody, we've got to fight for ourselves
Everybody, we've got to fight for ourselves
Everybody, we've got to fight for ourselves
Everybody, we've got to fight for ourselves
So many people, so many problems
There in the pretty city lights
Where we've thrown it all away
Well, if life is here before my eyes
Then I find it hard to see
How the methods that we're told to use
Are gonna make us free
Until then I say
Everybody, we've got to fight for ourselves
Everybody, we've got to fight for ourselves
All through the mystery,
All through the heartache
She's got the only single thing
That I'll never throw away
Oh, if lightning strikes for a second time
Will you come and pull me through?
It's a battle that we all must make,
So show me what to do
And you said
Everybody, we've got to fight for ourselves
Everybody, we've got to fight for ourselves
Well there's a feeling growing that is in this land,
There's a soul that's burning and it's your hand
Everybody, we've got to fight for ourselves
Oh so many people now, there's so many problems
There in the pretty city lights
Where we've thrown it all away
Well, if life is here before my eyes
Then I find it hard to see
How the methods that we're told to use
Are gonna make us free
Everybody, we've got to fight for ourselves
Everybody, we've got to fight for ourselves
Well there's a feeling growing that is in this land,
There's a soul that's burning and it's your hand
Everybody, we've got to fight for ourselves

TESTI CANZONI SPANDAU BALLET, TESTO VIRGIN

I could tell you a fairytale,
Hold your hand oh so small and frail,
But these lies are to no avail
In these blues
I could give you security,
Protect your eyes from what you see,
But I can't give you a guarantee,
Win or loose
Just trust in my love now baby,
I'll show you what's wrong,
Oh this is all I can give you baby,
So sing this song, sing it, sing it
Oh, we are virgin,
Just as bright as the blinding snow
Oh, we are virgin
And we just don't wanna let go,
We are virgin
Your skin is new and your eyes are wide,
Don't let that evil get inside,
I know it's hard to run and hide,
In these times
So hold your face to the sun today,
I'll take your hand and we'll walk away,
Show them all you don't have to pay
For these crimes
Just trust in my love now baby,
I'll show you what's wrong,
Oh this is all I can give you baby,
So sing this song, sing it, sing it
Oh, we are virgin,
Just as bright as the blinding snow
Oh, we are virgin
And we just don't wanna let go
And so if you go away,
I'll keep the fire burning,
Keep the fire burning all night
All through the wind and the rain
I'll keep the fire burning,
Keep the fire burning
Just trust in my love now baby,
I'll show you what's wrong,
Oh this is all I can give you baby,
So sing this song, sing it, sing it
Oh, we are virgin,
Just as bright as the blinding snow
Oh, we are virgin
And we just don't wanna let go,
We are virgin

TESTI CANZONI SPANDAU BALLET, TESTO HOW MANY LIES?

Once there were times,
Once there were reasons filled with rhymes,
Everything shared, everything told
You keep me so warm,
Protect me from all those mighty storms
And dreams seem so old
So look at us now, just look at us now,
With our hands on our hearts
And lines on our brow
How many lies must we tell?
How many lies must we see?
How many times must we say, “it's for the best”,
And leave truth as the casualty?
Do you read through the lines,
Or believe the TV and ‘The Times'?
Where can we find more ways to see?
You strain on the truth,
And make believe all when you cry wolf,
And the lies you're giving me
So look at us now, just look at us now,
With our hands on our hearts
And lines on our brow
How many lies must we tell?
How many lies must we see?
How many times must we say, “it's for the best”,
And leave truth as the casualty?
Oh, well the truth is hard,
So when they write the book,
Fiction's what you wanna be
Well, it's your freedom of choice,
But you know that lies, are the cancer of democracy
You've painted your face,
And now you've tainted your words
And now you're ready and armed with love
Well if you're head is steady,
And your soul is ready,
We're going up above
So whatever you wanna be,
Just come on along with me,
If there's truth in our hearts,
Maybe we can break free
How many lies must we tell?
How many lies must we see?
How many times must we say, “it's for the best”,
And leave truth as the casualty?
How many lies must we tell?
How many lies must we see?
How many times must we say, “it's for the best”,
And leave truth as the casualty?
How many times must we say, “it's for the best”,
And leave nothing, yeah
