THE FALLEN PRIEST

(Mercury/Moran/Rice)

Free me,free yourself

A life of sacrifice controlled me
But those promises I made
No longer hold me
Mercurial,more wayward by the hour
The shackles fall away I'm in your power

Free me (I'm a man of God) free yourself
Come to me (it should not be) and let me lead you
I beg you,I beseech you to let go
My heaven is yours
And heaven is all I know

We are mortal
In the hands of Gods who roll the dice
Searching for an earthly paradise
So hard to find
We are mortal
Victims of our weaknesses and passion
We are reaching from the heights
(I am falling,I am falling,falling from the heights)

But I promised I would serve
I should be a rock against depravity and sin
Oh,no sin,no sin
Free yourself,let your life begin

To yourself be true
I am a man of God
I should not be here with you

Free me,we are mortal,ah

Come a little closer to the fire
Than to love and live that one desire
Denial of that love is treason
The love that we make
The force of our lives and it's reason

We are mortal
In the hands of Gods who roll the dice
Searching for an earthly paradise
So hard to find
We are mortal
Victims of our weaknesses and passion
(I am falling,I am falling,we we are mortal)

Why do I believe in you
You're destroying my world
Hold nothing back
Give me all there is
I want it all

We are locked in each other's arms

This is where we stand
This is all there is
Prisoners of each others love
Yes we want it all

THE GOLDEN BOY

(Mercury/Moran/Rice)

The boy had a way with words,he sang,he moved with grace
He entertained so naturally,no gesture out of place
His road in life was clearly drawn,he didn't hesitate
He played,they saw,he conquered as the master of
As the master of his fate

The girl had an iron soul no-one could recognize
Material ambition that her gentleness disguised
She gave herself to him certain of his fame
Wanted him for luxury for limelight and his name

And then he sang to her

I love you for your silence
I love you for your peace
The still and calm releases
That sweep into my soul
That slowly take control

I love you for your passion
I love you for your fire
The violent desire
That burns me in it's flame
A love I dare not name

His rise was irresistible, yeah, he grew into the part
His explanation simply that he suffered for his art
No base considerations of some glittering reward
The prize was knowing that (his work) his work was noticed and adored

I love you (yes I love you) for your silence (for your silence)
I love you for your peace
The still and calm releases
That sweep into my soul
And slowly slowly takes control

He told the truth
Yes,he told the truth (and he told the truth)

Accepting every honour with (with) a masterly display (display)
Of well rehearsed reluctance to be singled out this way
He started to believe that he was all they said and more (and more)
She forgot, she forgot the reasons (reasons) she had wanted him before, yeah

I love you for your passion (for your passion)
I love you for your fire
The violent desire
Burns me in it's flame (burns me)
A love I dare I dare not name

The still and calm releases (releases)
That sweep into my soul (sweep into my soul)
That slowly (slowly) slowly (slowly) slowly (slowly)
slowly (slowly) slowly (slowly) slowly (slowly) slowly take control

And when at last they fell apart she wished that she could be
The hardened heart of yesterday,as cynical as he
By changing for the better she had changed things for the worse
The words that made them happy once now echoed ... echoed as a curse

GUIDE ME HOME

(Mercury/Moran)

Now the wind has lost my sail
Now the scent has left my trail
Who will find me
Take care and side with me
Guide me back
Safely to my home
Where I belong
Once more

Where is my star in heaven's bough
Where is my strength I need it now
Who can save me
Lead me to my destiny
Guide me back
Safely to my home
Where I belong
Once more

Who will find me
Take care and side with me
Guide me back
Safely to my home
Where I belong
Once more

How can I go on?
How can I go on this way

HOW CAN I GO ON

(Mercury/Moran)

When all the salt is taken from the sea
I stand dethroned
I'm naked and I bleed
But when your finger points so savegely
Is anybody there to believe in me
To hear my plea and take care of me?

How can I go on
From day to day
Who can make me strong in every way
Where can I be safe
Where can I belong
In this great big world of sadness
How can I forget
Those beautiful dreams that we shared
They're lost and they're nowhere to be found
How can I go on?

Sometimes I start to tremble in the dark
I cannot see
When people frighten me
I try to hide myself so far from the crowd
Is anybody there to comfort me
Precious Lord hear my plea - yeah
Lord ... take care of me

How can I go on (how can I go on)
From day to day (from day to day)
Who can make me strong (who can make me strong)
In every way (in every way)
Where can I be safe (where can I be safe)
Where can I belong (where can I beelong)
In this great big world (in this great big world of sadness)
How can I forget (how can I forget)
Those beautiful dreams that we shared (those beautiful dreams that we shared)
They're lost and nowhere to be found
How can I go on?

How can I go on
How can I go on go on go on go on yeah yeah yeah

Yoake kisetsu yume kibo
