TO FRANCE

sung by: Maggie Reilly

Taking on water
Sailing a restless sea
From a memory
A fantasy
The wind carries
Into white water
Far from the islands
Don't you know you're

Chorus:
Never going to get to France
Mary Queen of chance will they find you
Never going to get to France
Could a new romance ever bind you

Walking on foreign ground
Like a shadow
Roaming in far off
Territory
Over your shoulder
Stories unfold you're
Searching for sanctuary
You know you're

Repeat Chorus

I see a picture
By the lamp's flicker
Isn't it strange
How dreams fade and shimmer

Repeat Chorus

I see a picture
By the lamp's flicker
Isn't it strange
How dreams fade and shimmer

Repeat Chorus

Never going to get to France

POISON ARROWS

sung by: Barry Palmer

Silence in the air
Is anybody there
Searching every sound
Walking un quiet ground

Chorus:
Somebody's out to get you
Hiding in shadows - poison arrows
Somebody's out to break you
Hiding in narrows - poison arrows

When you gonna brake
Watching every move you make
And every thing you do
Evil eyes'll be on you

Repeat Chorus

Don't give in, don't come any closer, no sir
Keep running, coming in closer, closer
Don't give in don't come any closer, no sir
Keep running coming in closer no sir

What you gonna do
Time is running out on you
Anywhere you choose
Anyway you're gonna lose

Repeat Chorus

CRYSTAL GAZING

Watching for a spark
It's a moonlight show
Reaching through the dark
Do you have to go
Try to put a message through
To your sweetheart
Won't you like to know the secrets
Of the heart

Chorus:
Crystal gazing
Crystal gazing
What you gonna find in
Crystal gazing

Voices in the dark
And the lights burn low
Teach yourself the art
That you never know
Try to put a message through
To your sweetheart
Won't you like to know the secrets
Of the heart

Repeat Chorus

Pictures from the night
Would you be my guide
What you talk about
On the other side
Carry you a message through
From your sweetheart
Won't you like to know the secrets
Of the Heart

Repeat Chorus
Repeat Chorus

TRICKS OF THE LIGHT

I'm half a crazy man
Waiting for confirmation
Signs keep changing and
I need some more information

Some tricks of the light
You never know
Make a flickering midnight light
Into a glow

It's a trick of the light
It's a trick of the light

Something tells me how
Her bright blue eyes are smiling
She turns her head now
Will she won't she deny him

Some tricks of the light
You never know
Make a flickering midnight light
Into a glow
And spark that you saw so bright
Was just for show
Could it ever have turned out right
You'll never know

It's a trick of the light
It's a trick of the light

She turns she takes his hand
Breaking his concentration
She burns at his command
Makes some transfiguration

Some tricks of the light etc.
You never know

DISCOVERY

When you want the score
When you need a helping hand
And you find closed doors
And you're back where you began
Keeping those secrets
Telling those lies
Can anybody tell me what's the big surprise

Chorus:
Discovery
Who has the chance to know it all
Discovery
Give me some truth, stop making me crawl

How can you sleep
How can you turn away
Thinking so cheap
Some day you're gonna pay
You're keeping secrets
I can see in your eyes
Can anybody tell me why the big disguise

Repeat Chorus

Give me some chance
Give me some confidence
Won't you please set me free
Won't you someone deliver me
Who's keeping secrets
I got my spies
Does anybody think we live in paradise

Repeat Chorus

TALK ABOUT YOUR LIFE

Walking out
In the street light midnight
Whispery wind catch
Me in a headlight
Talk about
Your life I'd like to know
It's not easy
Going where no-one goes
And no-one knows

Chorus:
Do we have to be so distant
How can you be so unreal
What's the reason for hiding and
How does crying make you feel

I can see you're
Talking to me in riddles
Do what you like
You go where the wind blows
Talk about
Your life I'd like to know
It's not easy
Going where no-one goes
And no-one knows

Repeat Chorus

I reach for a certain disguise
That you're weaving
And I can tell by the mist in your eyes
That you're dreaming,
Dreaming

Do we have to by so distant
How can you be so unreal

In the clouds
Running and chasing shadows
In the crowd
Frozen in a window
Talk about
Your life I'd like to know
It's not easy
Going where no-one goes
And no-one knows

Repeat Chorus

SAVED BY A BELL

Won't you like to look through
My telescope
The milky way's a fine sight to see

All around our universe
We try so hard to view
What's new
Make a trip down to Sagittarius
And take a spin by some nebula
I hope the sky stays clear for us
Tonight goes on so far
In stars

Chorus:
Saved by a bell
Suffer in hell
But you were too blind to tell
Saved by a bell
Suffer in hell
And you made it through so well

Shining like bright diamonds the galaxies
Jupiter and Saturn spin by
Passing by companions
They all go drifting by they fly
Carry me down to see Aquarius
We're hoping to meet a shooting star
I can see there's gonna be
A message from afar
How close we are

Repeat Chorus
