- 1969
I’m sitting on the sofa with my eyes wide open watching
black and white T.V.
It’s 1969 and two men are walking on the Sea of Tranquility.
Can it be they really got a man to walk on the moon?
Now my Mum and Dad say go to bed little girl,
but my heads in a whirl...
I know they’re watching me,

Written by Ricky & Marty Wilde
I watch a man sitting down the park
The flashy suit manufactured by the makers
He's got a pen and he circles an add
It makes him laugh 'cos he's reading dirty papers

- Addicted to You
Don't have to justify myself
Don't have to do the things you say
And even when you say it's wrong
You know I'll do it anyway
I love it, I need it
This love that I breathe I can feel it within
I love it, I need it
- Back Street Joe
Dancing with Back Street Joe
That was a time I loved
When we were kids so young
So long ago
Dancing with Back Street Joe
Back in a time I loved
We used to move all night
- Birthday
Monday begins,
Before you know it Friday’s ending,
Your feeling that your life is passing you by, wo oh
What is there for you
aside from all the things that haunt you?
You’re feeling that you’re running out of time
your time

Written by t. ackerman, m. percy & t. lever
Breakin' away
Breakin' away
It's hard leaving
Walking away from someone just to start again
We are ever needing
Keeping that someone to care just to give us strength
- Brothers
Here we are
Late in the hours that start another day
Here am I
Skirting around what I really want to say
Brothers
Well they hold a place in your heart
They're something apart
- Burn Gold
The ash long gone nurtures all the trees
Her sapling children never sleep
The willow throws her branches high
And hawthorn silhouettes the sky
They'll burn orange then burn yellow
Then burn gold the walnut strong
Proves all is fine
And birch and maple, oak and pine
- C'mon Love Me
Written by Kim Wilde & G. McFarlane
There's an endless sky and
It's just you and I
You're close to me
We tried to say goodbye but
But we can't be that strong and let it be
Now I know life's changed

Well he was thailand based
She was an airforce wife
He used to fly weekends
It was the easy life
But then it turned around
And he began to change
She didnt wonder then
She didnt think it strange

Well
he was Thailand based
she was an airforce-wife.
He used to fly weekends
it was the easy life.
But then it turned around and he began to change.
She didn't wonder then
she didn't think it strange.
- Chaos At The Airport
I was driving out to meet you that night
Getting reports on the weather
You were coming home, had caught the last flight
But we would soon be together
You'd been gone such a long time
When my radio gave the warning
Chorus:
- Chequered Love
You say everything's alright
I say nothing can go right, yeah
Oh what a game you can play
Sad days add to confusion
Sad ways end in dillusion, yeah
That's the name of the game
Well I know your love is rough
And the road you take is tough
- Child Come Away
Child come away
It's the girl with the deputy walking by
Child go and play
No I won't give you reasons so don't ask why
I read the story about a week ago
They found her on the beach that night
They thought the light had gone out of her eyes
- Cyber.Nation.War
You hide behind a cyber screen
Feeling so protected ‘cos you know you can’t be seen
But words can play a dangerous game
It only takes a second but your life wont be the same
So tell me how do you sleep at night?
Anonymous vitriol from a dark place in your soul
Catch you sooner or later, gonna call you a hater
- Dancing In The Dark
We were dancing
Dancing in the dark
Sweet romancing
Something's gonna start
He stepped into the night
With his heart open wide
I was standing there
- Don't wanna know about vacations
Written by Ricky & Marty Wilde
Go go
Don't wanna know about vacations in this cheap motel
Don't wanna know about your sea green curtains
Cos all I want 'n' all I need is just some time with you
Don't complicate it - Just do it once again
- Everything We Know
Don't bring your gun 'round here
Don't need you mouthing off your fear
It touches all you can build a wall
We all have tasted tears
Everything we know
Everything we know
Everything we know
- Falling Out
What can I say now after all is said and done
You cut me up in pieces when the shooting first begun
What did I do to you to make you turn away
'cause now there's nothing left for me
There's nothing I can say
Now it's too late you feeling sorry
You'll never change
- Four Letter Word
I tell ya
It's hell yeah
When love says goodbye it's a four letter word
Because your heart knows
When love goes
The feeling is bad - it's the pits of the world
It's sad but true
When nothing you can do, can bring it back
- Heart Over Mind
You say this love is a prison
The door's open wide, you know
You can stay or you can go make up you mind
I say this love is forever
And I don't know why we cry
When we can build a mountain high
And all this time we take up
- Hey You
It’s Friday night, what can I do
The week is done, I need some fun
My friends are boring through and through
I think I’ll come and pester you
I’m gonna wait on the corner of the street for ya
But I won’t be responsible for the things that I do
When I’m with you, hey I said
- Hit Him
Too much time talking at each other
Seems you've got a different point of view
Let's just relax, get down to basic facts
I'll tell you just exactly what to do
You want the car, oh, yeah
Well, every penny in my pocket isn't yours, my friend
I'm gonna do what my mama says, oh, she said
- Hope
Hope is singing to everyone
Saying don't let go
Of the hope for the year to come
Of better things for tomorrow
Don't listen to the cynical
Who say things never change
And believe there are miracles
That can happen every day at Christmas time
- House Of Salome
Shadows run in the heat of the desert
Hands beat at the door
Someone stands and calls
For the name of Salome
As the veils were pushed away
He gazed upon a face
He'd never seen
- I Believe In You
Written by Ricki Wilde & Mick Silver
Did I say something wrong
Well if I've hurt you then tell me now
Don't let your fear surround you
Why don't you talk to me
Well I know what you want
- I dreamed I lived the whole
Written by Ricky & Marty Wilde
I dreamed I lived the whole thing just last night
Somehow this film just seemed to get it right
I watched a gunfire under dirty western skies
The one man's vision seems to pick me up and fill my eyes
It's Shane, can't you hear me calling you
- I'm going crazy
I watch you go
Now I have to face another night
Where time goes slow
I find places in my mind
Now I understand
We're in different worlds
- Isobel's Dream
Looking through a child's eye
Turning pages from the past
Of a story I read so long ago
An adventure on a snowy cloud to
A garden full of dreams
A place where every seed
Would have a chance to grow
- It's Here
Written by Ricki & Kim Wilde
I've been looking all around the world
To see what I could find
Just a lot of broken promises
And people left behind
Oh and the - pain of being lonely
Is what everybody fears
- Just A Feeling
Stand at the mirror and look at my face
See all the changes I know somethings wrong
But when I think back to the love that we had
I look for escape 'cause I know that it's gone
I always looked on the touch of our love
As a soft stream running over me
But I always knew there would be a way out
- Just Another Guy
Written by ricky & marty wilde
Wow billy what a day
Never thought of seeing you here
Funny how it goes
Never thought I'd see you fall
I heard you're down on luck
- Kandy Krush
There's a light, there's a light, there's a light in your eyes tonight
Feeling high, feeling high so high I'm gonna fly tonight
Wanna know what I'm feeling?
Something here needs revealing
Come here baby got to show you or I swear
I'm gonna die tonight
Take a chance, make it nice and slow, oh oh oh
Touch me I'll follow and I'll show you where to go
- Keep me Hanging on
Set me free, why don't you babe?
Get out my life, why don't you babe?
'cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hanging on
Set me free, why don't you babe?
Get out my life, why don't you babe?
'cause you don't really need me
- Kids In America
Looking out a dirty old window
Down below the cars
In the city go rushing by
I sit here alone and I wonder why
Friday night and everyone's moving
I can feel the heat
But it's soothing, heading down
- Lights Down Low
I know where this could lead
Just how good it could be
I’ll show you all of me
What you get is what you see
With every breath you breathe in me stronger
Every connection leading me under
One more confession leading another
- Looking out a dirty old window
Kids in America (оригинал Kim Wilde)
Дети в америке (перевод София Ушерович из Санкт-Петербурга)
Looking out a dirty old window.
Уставившись в грязное старое окно
Down below the cars in the city go rushing by.
На гоняющие по городу автомобили внизу,
I sit here alone and I wonder why.
- Lost Without You
Thinkin' here we go again
Tell me will it ever end
Contending for who's right or wrong
We're becoming enemies
Taking all my energy
Why can't we get along
I don't know you anymore
- Love Blonde
Something's coming down the street
Something static under your feet
Never looking left or right
'coz she'll just blow you out of sight
She's never waiting on your smile
Devastating, what's in her style ?
Situation no-go zone
- Love In The Natural Way
Well it sounded like a whisper
But soon became a cry
And the moment that I touch you
I know the reason why - we got love
No union is stronger than a woman with a man
I'm gonna give love in the natural way
With everything I can
Never mind if things go wrong
- Loved
Only for you, my love
---------------------------
Take all your goodness and shiness away
I'll tell you the things I've been longing to say
I'll break it to you just so you understand
The force and control that you hold in your hands
Make me the beat of your heart
- Million Miles Away
A while ago you looked at me
And said there'd come a time
You'd have to go away
You put it on the line
And told me we should only
Take each moment day by day
Well I know that there's a time in life
- Never Trust A Stranger 1988
Written by ricky & kim wilde
I knew there was a danger
But couldn't resist
The touch of a stranger
The thrill of his kiss
Cos this time
I thought it was love
- New Life
It's a beautiful mystery
Who knows who are what you'll turn out to be
We'll all wait patiently
But you know we just can't wait to see you
Now we're gathered together
All friends and family
Let's make a toast to us, and most of all
To the new life to be but you don't know
- One
Here we are on a winter's day
It's colder than cold outside
But warmer than warm we'll stay
Here in our hearts where we've made our home
We'll dress the tree just you and me
As, one by one out from the box they'll come
Shiny as new memories of Christmases past
We've been through me and you
- Our Town
Written by Ricky & Marty Wilde
This is your town, this is my place
This is where my whole world is lived in
Nothing much, and just out of reach of all the city lights
It's a high town, it's a low town
It's get here, come on you grow town
- Pop Don't Stop
Two of us growing up together thru a golden ag
We never realised it, our lives you changed,
Days of pure inspiration, will live in our hearts foreve
And as the years went by dreaming of our destinies,
Believing in the power of a melody
In your songs we found magical music, words and sound
The seasons come and go again
- Rock the Paradiso
Dull seeing me in the same way
Stuck on replay in the UK
Ooh time to give a bit live a bit harder
Something about this place you've got magic
I'm under your spell tonight
Only a heartbeat away
We gotta live for today
I could show you a thing or two
- Schoolgirl
It's something else to see the way you're growing
From a sweet little baby to a grown up girl
And I pray though darlin' I've no way to knowing
That you'll discover a beautiful world
As you skip down the street and hold your books so tightly
Tell me what are you learning in your ABC
Are you dreaming off all the many things you might be
- Shane
I dreamed I lived? the whole thing ? last night
Somehow I still don't seem to get it right
I watched the dusty wasted skyes
? woman ?? ??? ? Pick me up and fill my? ?eyes
A. Shane! Can't you hear me calling you?
Shane if I thought that you would still be riding through.
I said shane.
Please take me back there with you.
- Solstice
Lighthouse shine for me
I've been drifting so far
Guide me back from the sea
To the place I was before
I've been losing my way
Now I can't see the stars
Anymore
- Sparks
Caught in the times we live in
Caught in the times we know
It's taking a real hard line
You feel you're becoming a number
Nobody needs your trouble
Gives you the time of day
But kicking the world behind
Won't make it go away
- Stay Awhile
I'm touching your face and I
Can't get very far
You travel a million miles
Always in the stars
And crossing the clouds
A fading moon
Whispered "It's goodbye"
But as it starts to die
- Take Me Tonight
Lost in the dark the lovers embrace
As the last song plays, everyone makes for home
Now it's just me and you alone
And I won't really care if we can't meet again
You just live your life I'm just a night to pass
You're just a dream that couldn't last
- THE THRILL OF IT
Written by Kim Wilde & Steve Byrd
Thinking about what a friend just said
You know nothing good comes easy
You took the thought right from my head
You only seem to tease me
Then you turn - it on again
- Time
They say that love is a dangerous thing
And hits your heart like a revolution
And all the pain it can bring
Will only lead to confusion
But now that love has come into my life
We'll I've discovered a different meaning
And there's no danger at all
It's just a beautiful feeling
- Together We Belong
Мы созданы друг для друга
Когда дни кажутся такими ужасными,
Трава и небо становятся коричневого цвета,
И приходят только дурные вести,
Мы смотрим на жизнь другими глазами,
Но скоро начинаем понимать,
Что это просто день, который мы оставим позади.
- Victim
Written by ricky, kim & marty wilde
Back in my younger days
Decided to break away
Get out the door find a place to stay
The folks took it bad you see
The pride in the family
Guess they expected a nurse some day

View from a Bridge (оригинал Kim Wilde)
Вид с моста (перевод София Ушерович из Санкт-Петербурга)
View from a bridge, can't take anymore
Смотрю с моста, не могу больше.
View from a bridge, can't take anymore
Смотрю с моста, не могу больше.
- Watching For Shapes
Written by Ricky & Marty Wilde
Influences now are things that are all around me
Changing shape as they move around in an open mind
Coloured in by the images I find
I'm just watching for shapes that grow
I'm just watching for shapes that grow
- Water On Glass
Cascading down
There's a sound vaporising into vision
It's a sound in my head
That I feel and it shuts me in a prison
Say it won't last
Say it will pass
Always the sound in my brain
- Wendy Said
Lost in the night, out on the streets
And blown into the wind
She was just heading for trouble
When they got her downstairs
Cut by the lights, strands of her hair
Just tumble from her cheeks
She's just another Caucasian in a crime worn day
- Words Fell Down
(Ricky & Marty Wilde)
I wake up in the morning, looking for reaction
Then I see your faces, only for fraction
Did you hurt my feelings ? you just nailed me to the wall
Never say you’re sorry, never show emotion
Never show a good hand, never give a notion
- You Came
Someone I know is staring at me
And when I look into her eyes
I see a girl that I used to be
I hardly recognise
Cos in the space of a year
I’ve watched the old me disappear
All of the things I once held precious
Just don’t mean anything anymore
- You Keep Me Hangin On
Set me free why don't cha babe
Get out of my life why don't cha babe

You just keep me hangin'on
Set me free why don't cha babe
Get out of my life why don't cha babe
You don't really need me
- You Keep Me Hangin' On
(Brian Holland, Eddie Holland, Lamont Dozier)
Set me free why don't cha babe
Get out of my life why don't cha babe
'cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin'on
Set me free why don't cha babe

Set me free, why don't cha babe
Get out my life, why don't cha babe
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
You don't really need me
But you keep me hangin' on
Why do you keep a coming around
- You'll Be the One Who'll Lose
Угадай, что я считаю очевидным:
То, чтобы ты себя чувствовал также как и я.
Было достаточно романов, заканчивающихся неромантично.
Ты не рискуешь,
Но ты играешь в игру без оглядки.
Всегда идущий по кругу,
Дорожишь странной компанией.
Ты зовёшь их, когда едешь в город,
- Yours 'Til the End
Seems you're living in a dream
And I know there's no end
And I can never find the time
Come to terms with a lie
Grab you life with open hands
Take it all if you dare
I wish that I could be like you
Take control, and you're there
