TOO HOT TO SLEEP

She’s a Star
Desperate Dreams
Too Hot to Sleep
Didn’t Know It Was Love
Rhythm Of The City
Here Comes Desire
Across the Miles
Tell Me I’m The One
Can’t Give It Up
Burning Bridges

Song lyrics below.

She’s a Star

She comes to life from the cover of a Hollywood magazine
With a sense of confidence hard to fight
She waits to be discovered
Underneath the cover of a neon night
She’s a star
All of my friends they got a bet she hasn’t seen seventeen
I never been any good at playin’ the game
I’d just love to give her what she needs besides fortune and fame
She’s a star
From the backstreets to the city
There you’ll find her lookin’ so pretty
First she buys you, then she sells ya
You know she wants you when she’s telling you

Take me to the music
Out into the night
Drag me through the fire
Do it to me right

She steps right out and grabs you like a cover girl photograph
She’ll size you up then she hits you with those Hollywood tears
But I don’t need no close-up
To tell me she got style beyond her years
She’s a star
From the backstreets to the city
You’re gonna find her lookin’ so pretty
First she buys you, then she sells ya
You know she wants you when she’s telling you

Take me to the music
Out into the night
Drag me through the fire
Do it to me right

Desperate Dreams

Two dreamers, what would it feel like to meet by light of day
So lonely, wouldn’t if feel right to love this night away
Your name keeps echoing down this wishing well
Wild hearts on an endless flight,
Set free in our dreams tonight

Two souls drawn to the fire in desperate dreams
Two hearts lost to desire’s desperate schemes
One girl lost in a reverie
Lost love found in a memory
Those nights live on forever
Two fools lost in a desperate dream

Torn pages, more than a memory, pieces of the past
One vision, your image keeps haunting me, a love too good to last
Your voice keeps echoing down this wishing well
Wild hearts on an endless flight,
Set free our dreams tonight

One love divided burns brightly through the night
Two dreams united until the morning light

Sweat rollin’ down my hands and face
Big fan on the screen porch turnin’
Cat looking for a hidin’ place
Sun sinkin’ but the fire’s still burnin’
Music playing a few doors down,
I’m drawn to the sound
It’s just too hot to sleep
I walk restless to the street cafe
See that’s shakin’ in the tropic zone
A cold Corona and a twist of lime
Cools me down when I’m alone
Movin’ closer from across the room
I’ve seen her before and she looks so fine
Never wanted any woman more
I look at the door and she reads my mind

Too hot to sleep
Give up the fight
Throw back the sheets
Shoot out the lights
Too hot to sleep
Come take me higher
Caught up in the heart
Of the moment’s fire

Still burnin’ in the afterglow
Sun peekin’ through mirrored glasses
A little groggy from the night before
Feelin’ wired as the day advances
Can’t seem to keep my mind off you
It’s just no use — it’s blind desire
I wanna know that I can count on you
To throw a little gasoline on the fire

Too hot to sleep
Give up the fight
Throw back the sheets
Shoot out the lights
Too hot to sleep
Come take me higher
Caught up in the heart
Of the moment’s fire

Didn’t Know It Was Love

It felt so easy in the morning sun
When love was in season I was on the run
I was lookin’ for trouble and the thrill of the chase
Love was lookin’ at me eye to eye, face to face
One touch should’ve told me, try and understand
Love was always a long shot to a gambling man
With a roll of the dice, girl I threw it away
Now I’m thinkin’ ’bout you day and night, night and day

Didn’t know it was love
Didn’t know it was fate
Didn’t know it was destiny callin’
Tell me it’s never too late
Was I too blind to see
When push came to shove
You were all that I needed
Didn’t know it was love

Wasn’t blind to the magic, you think I’m so tough
Turning back on the thunder just ain’t good enough
I keep trying to shake you, there just ain’t no way
Now I’m thinkin’ ’bout you day and night, night and day

Those crazy nights on the borderline
Did my best to cut myself free
Stood alone, just a prisoner
Never knew you were holdin’ the key

Rhythm Of The City

The news is out, it’s hot on the street
It’s down to the wire, it’s back to the beat
As the sun goes West there’s change in the wind
Hear the rhythm of hearts as the night rushes in
Feel the temperature rise to a fever pitch
And the city will hold back its power
Then the rhythm explodes as the hour strikes

Midnight, my love is alive
Can’t you feel the heat
Of emotions taking over
Midnight, my love will survive
Can’t you feel the rhythm
I can feel the rhythm of the city

The night draws near, the street lights reveal
A whole world beyond this concrete and steel
Let me feel your touch in the midnight wind
In the traffic of hearts as the night rushes in
Feel the temperature rise to a fever pitch
And the city will hold back its power
Then the rhythm explodes as the hour strikes

Midnight, my love is alive
Can’t you feel the heat
Of emotions taking over
Midnight, my love will survive
Can’t you feel the rhythm
I can feel the rhythm of the city

Come on baby turn out the lights
Let me move you to the rhythm tonight
Feel it building to my every beat
Keep me comin’ ’til I’m back on the street and it’s

Midnight, my love is alive
Can’t you feel the heat
Of emotions taking over
Midnight, my love will survive
Can’t you feel the rhythm
I can feel the rhythm of the city

Here Comes Desire

Here comes desire, I can spot it a mile away
She’s on fire, I got the one thing to put out the flame
I got your number, give it up
I know you know that I’m on to you
No need to fight it, lay it down
Come feel the heat in my every move
This ain’t no shot in the dark
I’ll put it all on the line
Come down and tear me apart
Don’t wait, hit me straight, right between the eyes

Here comes desire
Here comes the thrill
You got me burnin’
Too hot, it’s overkill
Bring on the fire
Turn up the heat
Here comes desire
Buildin’ up inside of me
(Every time you’re touchin’ me)

Midnight strangers, what’s your action baby tell me your game
Love and danger, after midnight they’re one and the same
You use your body like a gun
Don’t take no chances, shoot to kill
I got you covered, give it up
I’ll give you more than a moment’s thrill
This ain’t no shot in the dark
I’ll put it all on the line
Come down and tear me apart
Don’t wait, hit me straight, right between the eyes

Here comes desire,
I can spot it a mile away
She’s on fire, I got the
one thing to put out the flame
This ain’t no shot in the dark
I’ll put it on the line
Come down and tear me apart
Don’t wait, hit me straight,
right between the eyes

Across the Miles

When I’m all alone on a distant path
And my ticket home has been torn in half
Oh, I can hear your voice, girl I can feel your touch
Across the miles tonight
On the road again, will it always be
That the dream gets changed on its way to reality
Oh, but the thought of you, strange how it pulls me through
Across the miles tonight
And I am sending you this message through the wires tonight
Just close your eyes and hold on tight
And here I am, concentrating girl with all my might
Now the sound of your laughter trails off through the midnight sky
As the miles go by, cities come and go
When you close your eyes and listen to the radio
Girl, can you hear my song, the signal is clear and strong
Across the miles tonight
And I am sending you this message through the wires tonight
Just close your eyes and hold on tight
And here I am, concentrating girl with all my might
Now the sound of your laughter trails off
Across the miles

Tell Me I’m The One

If you need any love tonight
I’ll give you all you need tonight
There you stand with you back to the wall,
You got a bad attitude
I’ve watched the way that you run from it all,
Does your heart get confused
Would you risk your reputation
Should you even take the chance
Or are you scared by what you’ll say
When the rules aren’t in the way
There’s no time for hesitation
Let’s get on to something real,
‘Cause if it’s love you’re lookin’ for
There’s no need to look anymore

If you need any love tonight —
Tell me I’m the one
We’ll take the time to do it right –
The night lives on
I’ll give you all you need tonight –
Tell me I’m the one
If you need any love tonight
I’ll give you all you need tonight

I’m comin’ in on a perfect approach,
An offer you can’t refuse
I’m gonna burn, gonna turn up the heat
With all the love you can use
Am I gettin’ your attention
Am I speakin’ to your heart,
There ain’t no time to wait and see
You gotta tell me now that it’s me

Can’t Give It Up

Growin’ up he was tagged a rebel
She was the smoke, he was the fire
They had the time of their lives together
Turning it up higher and higher
Now people talk about the two of them
And just shake their heads
It’s all just a cryin’ shame,
He’s got a heart she’ll never tame

He can’t give it up
Never give his heart away
Can’t give it up
Never gonna give it away
Gets it in the night
Hides it from the light of day
He’s too wild to tame

He got hooked on the spotlight
Fortune and fame, one-night stands
Under the spell of the hot lights
He had it all in the palm of his hand
Now she’s waitin’ in the wings
And feelin’ alone in the crowd
Their love is just a distant fire,
He’s too wild and she’s too proud

He can’t give it up
Never give his heart away
Can’t give it up
Never gonna give it away
Gets it in the night
Hides it from the light of day
He’s too wild to tame

Burning Bridges

I can feel a strong desire,
A distant fire burning through the past
Deep inside my heart is yearning,
A bridge is burning
There’s just no turning back
After all the hell I’ve tasted,
Years I’ve wasted,
Love that slipped away
Suddenly a vision shook me,
I see the fool I’d become content to play
Over one-way streets in blindin’ heat
I carry this torch alone
I ask for no directions home

You can call out my name but I won’t return
I’m a fugitive of love and this heart’s been burned
Burnin’ bridges behind me
You can follow me down but it’s plain to see
I’m a victim of the burn and it’s third degree
Setting bridges on fire

I will go to any length
To find the strength
To face the night alone
Standing on the edge of time,
I cross the line
My heart becomes my own
Gonna tell you why you’re a fool
To try to cross a burning bridge
It’s a long hard fall from the top of the ridge
