Wow!Moving on the floor now babe, You're a bird of paradiseCherry ice cream smile, I suppose it's very niceWith a step to your left and a flick to the rightYou catch that mirror way out westYou know you're something special And you look like you're the best CHORUS Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand Just like that river twisting through a dusty land And when she shines she really shows you all she can Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande I've seen you on the beach and I've seen you on TVTwo, of a billion stars, it means so much to meLike a birthday or a pretty viewBut then I'm sure that you know it's just for you CHORUS Hey now (wow), look at that, Did he nearly run you down?At the end of the drive, the lawmen arrive, You make me feelAlive, alive, alive I'll take my chance, 'cause luck is on my sideI tell you something, I know what you're thinkingI tell you something, I know what you're thinking CHORUS Her name is Rio, she don't need to understandI might find her if I'm looking like I canOh Rio, Rio hear them shout across the landFrom mountains in the north down to the Rio Grande written by/copyright: Duran Duran© 1982 Tritec Music Ltd. 2. my own wayI saw you at the airace yesterdayApril showers get out of my wayFear of flying, no not me I'm never bothered, what you saySomeone's kid just lives for todayI ain't your problem anyway CHORUS'Cause I've got my own wayI can find my own way'Cause I've got my own way No. 1 public figure, what a painJust puts another rattle in your brainTake another green but it's not the same Now you're on the Sandlane everydayDancing with the bulls in any old wayRunning like a fox to keep up with me CHORUS I'm on 45th between Sixth and Broadway7UP between Sixth and Broadway written by/copyright: Duran Duran© 1981 Tritec Music Ltd/

fading quickly Then look to meI'll be your homing angel, I'll be in your head Because you're lonely in your nightmareLet me inAnd there's heat beneath your winterLet me in I see the delta traces living lonely out on the limbAnd a passing glimmer warm beneath your skinPlease tread gently on the groundWhen all around you earth turns to fireOnly get a second chance when danger's on the wind Because you're lonely in your nightmareLet me inBecause there's heat beneath your winterLet me inAnd it's silent on your stone fieldLet me in Must be lucky weather when you find The kind of wind that you needC'mon, show me all the light and shade That made your nameI know you've got it in your head, I've seen that look beforeYou've built your refuge, Turns you captive all the same Because you're lonely in your nightmareLet me inAnd it's barren in your gardenLet me inBecause there's heat beneath your winterLet me inBecause it's silent in your stone fieldLet me inAnd you're lonely in your nightmareLet me inBecause you've waited through your ice ageLet me in Because you're so lonely in your nightmareLet me inAnd it's cold out on your stone rangeLet me inBecause there's heat beneath your winterLet me in written by/copyright: Duran Duran© 1982 Tritec Music Ltd. 4. hungry like the wolfDarken the city, night is a wireSteam in the subway, earth is a afireDo do do do do do do dodo dododo

down the lane People tell me I haven't changed at allBut I don't feel the sameAnd I bet you've had that feeling, tooYou just can't laugh all the time CHORUSAnd if the fires burn out, There's only fire to blameNo time for worry 'cause we're on the roam againThe clouds all scatter and We ride the outside laneNot on your own, so help me, Please hold back the rain So what if the words ain't rhymingDid you think that it's just a gameI probably didn't even say that rightAnd I really don't give a damn Okay, go off and wanderI'm guilty just the sameSometimes you're needed badlySo please come back again CHORUS written by/copyright: Duran Duran© 1982 Tritec Music Ltd. 6. new religionI've been now sauntering Out and down the path sometimeCome on, it takes me nowhere, which I knewFaces everywhere pulling grins and signs in thingsTelling me not there, man, it's no goDon't go there boy I need a reasonI can't think without one nowToo much learning got to showCall it treasonMaybe catch her, don't know howToo many things, too much to know Bring my timing in, seagulls gather on the windLady screaming, lady leave me out'Cause sometimes people stareComing down, electric chairAnd steaming crowds they gather and they shout Don't know why this evil bothers me Take another chance boy, carry the fight, you can take him if you're fastSo why is he trying to follow me? didn't I say if you're holding on you'd be laughing at the lastHow many reasons do they need? I get along fine with them friends of mine but you have to make a choiceI might just believe this time You're singing out of tune but the beat's in time and it's us who makes the noise I'm talking for free, I can't stop myself, It's a new religionI've something to see, I can't help myself, It's a new religion Okay, my reasoning might be clouded by the sunBut someone sees the departmental lieYou know this peacetime jabbing fist in stabbing knifeOnly get one look before you die Don't know why this evil bothers me Take another chance boy, carry the fight, you can take him if you're fastSo why is he trying to follow me? didn't I say if you're holding on you'd be laughing at the lastHow many reasons do they need? I get along fine with them friends of mine but you have to make a choiceI might just believe this time You're singing out of tune but the beat's in time and it's us who makes the noise I'm talking for free, I can't stop myself, It's a new religionI've something to see, I can't help myself, It's a new religion Gotta take pay the saints 'n sinners In regulation hats 'n scarves 'n thingsWalking in formation down the lane, They carry their cross, make a church bell ring Army majors pull a mean cool truth, There lying in a swimming poolSearching for the undeniable truth that A man is just a fool Don't know why this evil bothers me Take another chance boy, carry the fight, you can take him if you're fastSo why is he trying to follow me? didn't I say if you're holding on you'd be laughing at the lastHow many reasons do they need? I get along fine with them friends of mine but you have to make a choiceI might just believe this time You're singing out of tune but the beat's in time and it's us who makes the noise I'm talking for free, I can't stop myself, It's a new religionI've something to see, I can't help myself, It's a new religion(repeat to fade) written by/copyright: Duran Duran© 1982 Tritec Music Ltd. 7. last chance on the stairwayI don't remember quite how I met you, Wasn't long agoJust get a picture of sunIn your eyes, the waves in your hairMaybe it's something said in a movieOr you could've said last nightJust took me out on a limbAnd I don't really know what I'm doing here And sometimes I'm caught in a landslideMy beat's so in time, can you look at meI'm out of reach, I'll talk if it feels rightI've had my last chance on the stairway Funny, it's just like a scene out of Voltaire Twisting out of sight'Cause when all the curtains are pulled backWe'll turn and see the circles we tracedAin't no game...when you're playing with fireIt doesn't seem right that we fightSo the party runs on all night And sometimes I'm caught in a landslideMy beats so in time, can you look at meI'm out of reach, I'll talk if it feels rightSo nervous to say, tell me, can't you seeIf you want, I fall out foreverI can't say no more...bebe dance with meAnd please don't say leave it till laterI've had my last chance on the stairway Wonder whyWonder why...what makes me rise so highMaybe it's something they put in your perfumeOr the look in your eyesIt could be the atmosphere sinkingI don't even know what you're thinkingDon't even know what you're drinkingBut it keeps this heaven alive And sometimes I'm caught in a landslideMy beats so in time, can you look at meI'm out of reach, I'll talk if it feels rightSo nervous to say, tell me, can't you seeIf you want, I fall out foreverI can't say no more...bebe dance with meAnd please don't say leave it till laterI've had my last chance on the stairway written by/copyright: Duran Duran© 1982 Tritec Music Ltd. 8. save a prayerYou saw me standing by the wall, Corner of a main streetAnd the lights are flashing on your window sillAll alone ain't much fun, So you're looking for the thrillAnd you know just what it takes and where to go Don't save a prayer for me now, Save it 'til the morning afterNo, don't say a prayer for me now, Save it 'til the morning after Feel the breeze deep on the inside, Look you down into the wellIf you can, you'll see the world in all his fireTake a chance (Like all dreamers can't find another way)You don't have to dream it all, just live a day Don't say a prayer for me now, Save it 'til the morning afterNo, don't say a prayer for me now, Save it 'til the morning afterSave it 'til the morning after, Save it till the morning after Pretty looking road, try to hold the rising floods that fill my skinDon't ask me why I'll keep my promise, I'll melt the iceAnd you wanted to dance so I asked you to danceBut fear is in your soulSome people call it a one night standBut we can call it paradise Don't say a prayer for me now, Save it 'til the morning afterNo, don't say a prayer for me now, Save it 'til the morning afterSave it 'til the morning afterSave it 'til the morning afterSave it 'til the morning afterSave it 'til the morning after Save a prayer 'til the morning after written by/copyright: Duran Duran© 1982 Tritec Music Ltd. 9. the chauffeurOut on the tar plains, the glides are movingAll looking for a new place to driveYou sit beside me, so newly charmingSweating dew drops glisten, freshing your side CHORUSThe sun slips down bedding heavy behindThe front of your dress all shadowy linedAnd the droning engine throbs in timeWith your beating heartSing Blue Silver Way down the lane away, living for another dayThe aphids swarm up in the drifting hazeSwim seagull in the sky Towards that hollow western isleMy envied lady holds you fast in her gaze CHORUS And watching lovers part, I feel you smilingWhat glass splinters lie so deep in your mindTo tear out from your eyes With a word to stiffen brooding liesBut I'll only watch you leave me further behind CHORUS written by/copyright: Duran Duran© 1982 Tritec Music Ltd. |
