Electric Light

People tell me I'm far too obsessed but they don't Understand how it feels to be me and I won't Be told by others what I shouldn't like I just feel right when I let myself go It can feel me with pride and excitement inside Such a thrill to be filled with the joy and delight How could anyone not feel the same? Oh, they don't see... That there is something on my mind It is a world they leave behind And it will always draw me closer I want electric light That flashes away I want my heels sky high I can't run away And I say uhh, ahh and baby come play And I know just why I wanna stay 'Cause on a disco night everything is all right All the time I pretend to be into something That I don't really like or connect with at all Just to please someone's credible mind But that ain't me 'Cause in my heart I'm someone else And it's been true since I was twelve And baby now I'm singing my song. I want electric light...

A moving stream of information That is floating on the wind The secrets never end And now they call They sing, they play, they dance for you From out of the blue What can you do? The secret messages are calling to me endlessly They call to me across the air The messages across the atmosphere They whisper in your ear, they're calling everywhere Where words cascade like rainbows Tumbling from the sky Then I'll be there, I'll be there When messages will call to you Their secrets all around Without a sound, they're all around The secret messages are calling to me endlessly They call to me across the air The messages across the atmosphere They whisper in your ear, they're calling everywhere They're calling everywhere Those secret messages that spill Into the air from far away So far away A flowing river of illusion Running with confusion Never gone - it goes on and on The secret messages are calling to me endlessly They call to me across the air The messages across the atmosphere They whisper in your ear, they're calling everywhere Secret messages Secret messages Secret messages

She came up from the country with her smile for everyone She left her blue horizon just to find another home A lonely girl who'd traveled many days A lonely heart that could not find a way She said, "Mama, it's a hard life now you're gone Mama, it's so hard to carry on And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all You used to make it all so very clear That life must go on though the end is near Mama, it's a sad and lonely life" A misty morning rider, she came wandering through the hills A wandering soul appearing over rainy windowsills A loser in her heart, but in her face A smile for everyone under God's grace And she said, "Mama, it's a hard life now you're gone Mama, it's so hard to carry on And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all You used to make it all so very clear That life must go on though the end is near Oh Mama, it's a sad and lonely life" And she said, "Mama, it's a hard life now you're gone Mama, it's so hard to carry on And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all You used to make it all so very clear Midnight maiden madness, what to search for in this place? Gateway to the city, night sky shadows on her face A lady lost in nowhere but her stare Leaves the world, her life to start somewhere And she said, "Mama, it's a hard life now you're gone Mama, it's so hard to carry on And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all You used to make it all so very clear That life must go on though the end is near Mama, it's a hard life now you're gone Mama, it's so hard to carry on And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all You used to make it all so very clear That life must go on though the end is near"

Pack up all your things We're gonna be leavin' Sooner than I thought Take the things you bought Clouds are gathering Say goodbye to all your friends We're gonna be sorry For a while that's how it goes But then again, who knows About the rain? I'm steppin' out I'm movin' on I'm gonna see the world Like a rolling stone Steppin' out I'm gonna be somebody Ooh, I'm steppin' out Did you hear what he said? He said they sold me down the river They thought, I thought I was a fool They said the rain would fall What did they know? Then I saw your face Heard the song that you were singin' Though I thought I knew the words The tune was quite absurd and out of key Doo, dah-dah, dee I'm steppin' out I'm movin' on I'm gonna see the world Like a rolling stone Steppin' out I'm gonna be somebody Ooh, I'm steppin' out I'm steppin' out, I'm steppin' out I'm steppin' out, I'm steppin' out I'm steppin' out, I'm steppin' out I'm steppin' out, I'm steppin' out (I'm steppin' out, I'm steppin' out) (I'm steppin' out, I'm steppin' out) Steppin' out Steppin' out Steppin' out Don't know where I'm goin' Gonna see the world Gonna be somebody Don't know where I'm goin' I'm just steppin' out I'm steppin' out I'm steppin' out
