With a rebel mind and a gypsy heart
No place could ever be home
Drawn like a wolf to the moon it calls to my soul
Ain't got no woman, they just tie me down
Freedom is my only friend
I get a feeling destiny lies 'round the bend
One for the road
Slave to the highway
King of the road
Chasing the sun as it sets in the sky
Swear that I'll catch it someday
Lights of the city behind are fadingg away
Makin' my way through the names on the map
No point in feeling alone
As long as I ride the open road I'll always have a home
One for the road
Slave to the highway
King of the road
My future is calling a cry in the wind
Leading me out of my past
Got no destination but know that I'm getting there fast
Crossed many miles got so many to go
Each one calling my name
Won't settle down and you know I'll never be tamed
One for the road
Slave to the highway
King of the road

She came from across the water
A devil's daughter was in disguise
I crid for mercy - she bound and chained me
and then she played me, I was mesmerized
When she gave me blood red roses
They were wrapped in razor thorns
She was sly in her temptation
Then she left me on my own
Sutch a cold hearted woman
She promised passion everlasting
And now I'm haunted by her name
I gave up all that I ever cared for
Oh if I only had my yesterdays again
I've been blinded, now I'm broken
Sometimes I can hear her song
No man's grass was ever greener
Now I find that I don't belong
With a cold hearted woman
She touched my world and I was shaken
But she was fakin,?I never knew
These days are colder and there's no shoulder
I'm just the shell fo the man I was before
If there's somewhere I can run to
Till I kill the pain inside
I've been walking now for hours
Can't forget her, the Lord knows I've tried
Cause she's a cold, cold hearted woman

Justify, speak the lies, close your eyes
As we make love
Touch my skin, let the fun begin, once again
I hear your cries, rise oh rise
Feel the nails, tell tales trails across my spine
Beautiful
Silken kiss, on a night like this, who would miss
Our final hour
Closer still, close your eyes, see my world, it's animal
Insatiable
Velvet glove, unrequited love, find the words
And make them rhyme
One last dance, hypnotizing trance, a knowing glance
I love you
Closer still, lose your will, see my world, it's criminal
Insatiable
Things we hide, keep them out of signt, heard it said
It's unbearable
Feel my pain, taste my shame, who's to blame
Inexcusable

Can't say something if the words ain't there
What you trying to do
Money can't buy me out of trouble I'm in
I've been messing with the likes of you
Been so long since I left my home
Looks like I lost my way
Tried so hard just to make it work
You just turn around and walk away
Something's got to give, I ain't gonna leave
Time to dig down deep
If you wanna get out of this town alive
You gotta stand and fight
So infuriating the way you twist my words
I know you got your problems, it seems every day
That they're getting much worse
I hear you screaming for attention
You say your life's a mess
Something else to cry about
Just get on with it
Something's got to give, I ain't gonna leave
Time to dig down deep
If you wanna get out of this town alive
You gotta stand and fight

I search for her in the dead of night
A silhouette lit by candle light
In a whispered word she is gone
Familiar stranger without a name
In a darkened room they all look the same
Like the sand of time she slips away so far away
In the mirror you can see her face
An angel dressed in the blackest lace
A sip of wine and the game can begin
Just an image lost in fantasy
Then you touch her and you can't break free
Till you see your fate written there in her eyes
Oh Ariel,
Lost in a distant dream, take me home
Ariel

Well I'm moving faster close to the edge
As I smoka a pack of strong cigarettes
When my fears run dry, you won't see me cry
Coz I know I got it coming
We touched the sun and went on our way
And we asked the stars to come out to play
But you said good night when they lost their light
And my world stopped spinning `round
What are we fighting for
Dontcha know that no one wins
What are we fighting for
Just give up and I'll give in
It's too late for tears
When the things you need are things you don't want
And you take the needle right to the point
I'd be heaven bound, but you shoot me down
Leave me broke and bleeding on the killing floor

I know the key to secrets never told, they're hidden in your soul
Feelings you hide never wanting me to find they've always been mine
Release all the madness within let it all begin
Now you'll see, the dark side of me
In our black masquerade
Let the moonlight surround you
The game that we play is
The black masquerade
The full moon unmasks the stranger in us all
And the cruel world takes its toll
The shadow is cast on who you used to be
Let me set you free
Come now, come take my hand, then you'll understand
We'll go to that forbidden land
Of our black masquerade
Let the darkness surround you
The game that we play is the black masquerade
Release all the madness within, let it all begin
We'll go to that forbidden land
Come let me take you there
Let the moonlight surround you
Don't be afraid, it's the black masquerade

You say you want your freedom
It all gets a bit out of hand
Caught in the ocean as I'm watching you breathe
We all believe what we wanted to belive
That's the silence of love
You say all you want is money
You scream for a little bit more
Caught in a landslide as we're stumbling on
Who'd say we're right but who would say we're wrong
Silence of love
You say you need someone to hold you
You say that you're feeling afraid
I know the worst part of being alone
Is a book full of nombers with no one to phone
That's the silence of love

Mysteries of ages told, stories now will unfold
Tales of mystic days of old are hidden in these walls
Hear the witches play their tunes, sing their songs to the moon
As they play the night will move, in the hall of the mountain king
Wild child so innocent
You took that away
Thoughts of wonder and surprise hide themselves in your eyes
As the smoke begins to rise inside the mountain halls
Ancient tales of witches love, answers lie through that door
All you'd ever want and more, is calling for you now
Through darkend corridors
Try but you cannot break free
You took her innocence
Now you will answer to me
I am the mountain king
Are you not afraid? I am the mountain king
Listen to the bells
In a midnight fantasy, more than any eye can see
Hear them laughing crazily, It's out of control
Mysteries of ages told, stories now will unfold
Tales of mystic days of old are hidden in these walls
Through darkend corridors
Run but you cannot escape
You took her innocence
And for this crime you must pay
I am the mountain king, are you not afraid?
I am the mountain king

See the stars come fallin' down from the sky
Gently passing, they kiss your tear drops dry
See the wind come, softly blow
Your hair from your face
And the rain comes falling down
In its crazy way
Still I'm sad

For myself my tears just fall in the dust
As I search in the night and find they're lost
See the wind come gently blow
Time into my heart
And the rain comes falling down
While we're apart
Still I'm sad
