The winds of change come blowing through my life
The fortune wheel is spinning round the dice
And i travel through the emerald frost
To where the ice watchman sits around the clock
And it's cold, so very cold
In the playground of the lost souls
And I'm told, you never grow old
In the playground of the lost souls
Cherry oyster's scattered on the beach
Of the crystal ocean that's so far out of reach
So i board the ship of fools
Where the thieves of romance pillage every room
And it's cold, so very cold
In the playground of the lost souls
And I'm told, you never grow old
In the playground of the lost souls
And it's cold, so very cold
In the playground of the lost souls
And I'm told, you never grow old
In the playground of the lost souls
What you gonna do when you're lonely
What you gonna do when it all falls down
What you gonna do when you're broken
What you gonna do when the rains come down
What you gonna say when you can't choose
What you gonna say when the world goes by
What you gonna say when it's too late
What you gonna say when it's time to die
Rains come down yeah
The rains come down, the rains come down
What you gonna say, boy
What you gonna do when the rains come down
When you're lonely, when you're alone
What you gonna say, sing it to me
When the rains come down, come down
When you say youre lonely
Whatcha you gonna do boy
When the rains come down, come down

Blood And Roses (Remix)

It was long ago
Seems like yesterday
Saw You standing In The Rain
Then i heard you say
I want to love but it comes out wrong
I want to live but i don't belong
I close my eyes and i see
Blood and Roses
Flowers In The Springtime
October we were wed
The winter time the roses died
The blood ran cold and then she said
I want to love but it comes out wrong
I want to live but i don't belong
I close my eyes and i see
Blood and Roses
It was long ago
Seems like yesterday
Saw You standing In The Rain
Then i heard you say
I need your love but it comes out wrong
I try to live but i don't belong
I close my eyes and i see
Blood and Roses

I see him walking down the street one day
He turns and looks, and looks my way
But as i turn to say
He just fades away
He's a stranger in this vicinity
He looks like an agent of mystery
And through the dark shadows
He stalks the city streets
He's a man, dressed in black
And like the speed of light he moves through you
You're a man, dressed in black
Through the wind and the rain, I keep searching for you
I keep looking for you
I'm a gunning for you
I keep searching for you
Down avenues and boulevards
He flits through cafe's and city bars
I thought i saw him smoking
By a burned out car
He's like a ghost who floats from place to place
One day i'll meet him face to face
But like a haze of gunsmoke
He fades and leaves no trace
He's a man, dressed in black
And like the speed of light he moves through you
You're a man, dressed in black
Through the wind and the rain, I keep searching for you
I keep looking for you
I'm a gunning for you
I keep searching for you
No face, no trace, a silhouette through mist And haze
This stranger, he's dressed in black
No name, always the same, he flickers through cinematic frames
This stranger, well he's dressed in black
He's a man, dressed in black
And like the speed of light he moves through you
You're a man, dressed in black
Through the wind and the rain, I keep searching for you
I keep looking for you
I'm a gunning for you
I keep searching for you

THE RAIN POURED DOWN ON ME TOO
I met you under Berlin lilac trees
English Spy falls for spandau queen
1944 and this war it never yields
Autumn leaves fall down gold & green
There's danger on the German radio
As the rain it poured down on me
It's crazy our dark hidden secret
But my love for you goes on and on
I kissed you but you seemed so uncertain
We talked by lanterns for hours in the twilight
I held your hand as we closed the curtains
As the bombs rained down all through the night
There's danger on the German radio
As the rain it poured down on me
It's crazy our souls in isolation
But your love for me goes on and on
I saw the rain as it bathed on your pretty face
I caught your eyes as they lit up the sky
Souls scream as the city burns to ash again
Sit in darkness as the sirens wail by
There's danger on the German radio
As the rain it poured down on me
It's crazy and it's so uncertain
But this war it goes on and on

Someone's Dying
I slipped away from a sleepy stillness
A blind man cried
Pale faces stared
Cos someone's died
They steel your clothes and make you grand
For your final stand
A funeral pyre of cleansing fire
On these hallowed lands
There's no-one here i know
Black suits and a perished moon
Light the candles, start the wake
Your embers burnt out too soon
Someone's dying, Someone's dying
I walked away
No I crawled away
To an endless pain
Through the winter storm clouds
So these dreamless nights
And the empty days
They seem so strange
Through the winds of hell fire
And in the breeze
Oh the summer trees
I'm on my knees
For you now sweet child
Can't let you go
Oh you'll never know
Just how much i loved you now
I walked away from the girl with the flowers
Tears fall like blood, i felt her pain
I grew old, without your love
Sombre days and bitter rains
Everything just falls apart
It breaks my heart
I call your name, it's all in vain
This is my darkest day
I kissed your eyes and said goodbye
Dust to dust beneath black skies
I wish you well and stay clear of hell
Till another place, another time
Someone's dying, Someone's dying
Through the rain and snow
To where the angels go
In the afterglow
Is where i'll meet you
You're dust and bone
And your blood runs cold
Now long dark nights bleed me
Ive met the devil here
Near your grave stone dear
But i showed no fear
Cos you were with me
In your land of ghosts
And tormented souls
You'll waltz right through heavens door

R.I.P. (Remix)

For one sweet moment she was mine
In a world of our very own
She was so dear to me
But now my love has flown
To Rest In Peace
To Rest in Peace
Lipstick
On the mirror
I'm burning
Up inside
Perfume
On your nightdress
Nightmares
Haunting deep inside
I kiss your photo everyday
Still hear the words you loved to say
I see your ashes burn away
Rest in peace
I feel your ghost from time to time
Your memories still flood my mind
My love for you will never die
Rest in peace
A Bed of
Roses by your side
Angels
Stole you from my life
A Bitter Taste
Of sorrowed times
And Many
Many people cried
Each winter brings another tear
Without your love i'm laced with fear
Your memories so very clear
Rest in peace
Oh why d'you have to go and die
The car crash wreckage plagues my mind
Another you i'll never find
Rest in peace
Rest in, Rest in, Rest in, Rest in peace
Rest in, Rest in, Rest in, Rest in peace
RIP, RIP, RIP O-oh
RIP, RIP, RIP O-oh
Rest in, Rest in peace
Rest in, Rest in, Rest in, Rest in peace
I kiss your photo everyday
Still hear the words you loved to say
I see your ashes burn away
Rest in peace
I feel your ghost from time to time
Your memories still flood my mind
My love for you will never die
Rest in peace
Each winter brings another tear
Without your love i'm laced with fear
Your memories so very clear

Rainy Days (Remix)

Rainy days, always in my way
After all these years, the pain don't fade away
Oh Dad, you're never coming back
From that fateful heart attack
Which left me on my knees
Fighting back the tears
And I still miss you
And I still need you
And I still love you
These rainy days, have broke me many ways
And where was god, when i cried out his name
Oh Dad, you left me way too soon
You never saw me bloom
And even though I've tried
I'm hollow deep inside
And I still miss you
And I still need you
And I still love you
How many more rainy days?
I've a million memories of the days we played
How many more rainy days?
I can't wait to see you in another world
How many more rainy days?
I've a million memories of so very few days
How many more rainy days?
I can't wait to see you in another world

Playground Of Lost Souls
05:32

The winds of change come blowing through my life
The fortune wheel is spinning round the dice
And i travel through the emerald frost
To where the ice watchman sits around the clock
And it's cold, so very cold
In the playground of the lost souls
And I'm told, you never grow old
In the playground of the lost souls
Cherry oyster's scattered on the beach
Of the crystal ocean that's so far out of reach
So i board the ship of fools
Where the thieves of romance pillage every room
And it's cold, so very cold
In the playground of the lost souls
And I'm told, you never grow old
In the playground of the lost souls
And it's cold, so very cold
In the playground of the lost souls
And I'm told, you never grow old
In the playground of the lost souls
What you gonna do when you're lonely
What you gonna do when it all falls down
What you gonna do when you're broken
What you gonna do when the rains come down
What you gonna say when you can't choose
What you gonna say when the world goes by
What you gonna say when it's too late
What you gonna say when it's time to die
Rains come down yeah
The rains come down, the rains come down
What you gonna say, boy
What you gonna do when the rains come down
When you're lonely, when you're alone
What you gonna say, sing it to me
When the rains come down, come down
When you say youre lonely
Whatcha you gonna do boy
When the rains come down, come down
