Man And Machine
Fall in love with a twisted lady.
Suicide with a cover girl.
Spent all your time then you got stuck paying the price, whoa whoa.
Uptown, kick it down, into a spin,
Face the wall, take it all, you just can't win.
Can't stand the heartache, So bleeds the red, red rose.
Time heals a broken heart, But that's just the way it goes.
Can't stand, I can't stand the heartache.
You got caught in the line of fire, Bystander innocence.

Islands call out to me
Like the highlands that I always see
In my dreams of home
I am never alone when I am there
Islands like so many dreams
Are like canyons but off the main stream
And there's no one there
The dreamer is always alone
And the mighty blue ocean
Keeps rolling on every shore
Like the spirit that binds us together
We are so much more than islands
Islands belong to the sea
Like the dark sands of my memory
When the morning comes
They are stepping stones to the sun
And the mighty blue ocean
Keeps rolling on every shore
Like the spirit that binds us together
We are so much more than islands
