Track Name: The Magician
Beware the magician.
He appears in a puff of smoke,
And he sweeps you off your feet in levitation.
Take care, the magician
Will leave you hanging in midair,
If you dare to let him steer the conversation.

I don't believe in magic, but somehow he could
Suspend my disbelief until I'd only see the good.

You will defend the magician
And his vanishing routine,
And he will let you draw your own conclusion.
You will pretend the magician
Is just a harmless bit of fun,
And he will draw you in to his illusion.

I don't believe in magic, but somehow he could
Suspend my disbelief until I'd only see the good.

Beware the magician.
He appears in a puff of smoke,
And he sweeps you off your feet in levitation.
Take care, the magician
Will leave you hanging in midair;
He will disappear with zero hesitation.
I tried to resist him.
I tried not to play the game
With the sets and props and costumes that surround him.
Inside the magician
Hides a person with a name.
What a shame that I can't say I ever found him.

I don't believe in magic, but somehow he could
Suspend my disbelief until I'd only see the good.
I don't believe in magic, but somehow he could
Suspend my disbelief until I'd only see the good.
Track Name: Blink
Going out on the strip tonight.
The smog, it blots out starlight.
'Til you only got one thing on your mind.

It doesn't require much thought.
It doesn't require a lot.
You've got evolution on your side.

But three seconds is all you get,
So make it snappy: game, match, set.
And in a minute, you're gonna learn
If your snap decision isn't gonna crash and burn!

What do you think?
What about it?
Don't think about it, baby, just blink.
No need to think.
It's a gut reaction, you know.
Attraction is an instinct.
You've got no choice in the matter,
No voice in the matter but to blink.

The pitch is the itch you scratch.
I'm striking the perfect match
With which to set fire to this town.

It doesn't require that much.
It only requires a touch
Before my defenses all burn down.

Three seconds to make the catch.
So make it snappy: game, set, match.
In a minute, you're gonna learn
If your snap decision isn't gonna crash and burn!

What do you think?
What about it?
Don't think about it, baby, just blink.
No need to think.
It's a gut reaction, you know.
Attraction is an instinct.
You've got no choice in the matter,
No voice in the matter but to blink.

Three seconds to make the catch.
So make it snappy: game, set, match.
In a minute, you're gonna learn
If your snap decision isn't gonna crash...

So, blink!
What do you think?
What about it?
Don't think about it, baby, just blink.
No need to think.
It's a gut reaction, you know.
Attraction is an instinct.
You've got no choice in the matter,
No voice in the matter but to blink.
Track Name: Get You In The Mood
Sometimes I get so tired of carrying this shield.
Lonely as hell up on my pedestal, I need
Someone to come along and knock me off my feet.
I almost fell when I saw you walk down my street.
I see you smiling that mysterious smile.
I hate to think that I am cramping your style.
Sometimes I think, I wonder what you're all about
I think there's only one way to know, one way to find out.

So come on, and let me take you beyond these city lights.
I want to make you stare up at the stars all night.
The constellations spin around the sky.
Get you in the mood
To go dark to light, light to dark, dark to light
Come spend the weekend with me
We may not have a plan, we just have a good idea
Go dark to light, light to dark, dark to light
Forgive the imposition, forget your inhibition,
And get in the mood with me.

Sometimes I wonder if I'm wasting my time
Drinking your Kool-Aid while you're tasting my wine,
Like you can fool me into thinking it's real.
It's fake, but I feel myself wear out my brakes.
I'm spinning my wheels trying to get in a groove,
While you shoot off your arrows--every target that moves!
So you've got to forgive me If I'm being too forward,
But I ordered an entrée, and I got an hors d'œuvre.

So come on, and let me take you beyond these city lights.
I want to make you stare up at the stars all night.
The constellations spin around the sky.
Get you in the mood
To go dark to light, light to dark, dark to light
Come spend the weekend with me
We may not have a plan, we just have a good idea
Go dark to light, light to dark, dark to light
Forgive the imposition, forget your inhibition,
And get in the mood with me.

If I remember one thing about this day
Oh let it be your breath on my skin
To replay over and over again
If I hold on to one thing after tonight
Oh let it be the look on your face
Never to be erased.
Go dark to light, light to dark, dark to light, light to dark,
Dark to light, light to dark, dark to light,
Light to dark, dark to light, light to dark,
Play with me
Dark to light, light to dark, dark to light,
Light to dark, dark to light, light to dark,
Dark to light, light to dark, dark to light, to dark
Ten days with me.

I want to take you beyond these city lights
I want to make you stare up at the stars all night
The constellations spin around the sky
Get you in the mood
To go dark to light, light to dark, dark to light
Come spend the weekend with me
We may not have a plan, we just have a good idea
Go dark to light, light to dark, dark to light
Forgive the imposition, forget the inhibition,
And get in the mood with me.

Forget your inhibition, forgive the imposition,
And get in the mood with me.
Get in the mood with me.
Track Name: Let's Give Love
I can't buy you an airplane; I can't buy you much of anything.
I can't buy you a spaceship, but I can fly you to Saturn's rings.
I can make you a promise that I promise to keep.
I can give you a reason to smile your way to sleep.
'Cause you know:

Our money won't be much good anyway
When cities crumble and collapse one day.
Look at us; the sheltered lives we live!
You've got three of every gift I could afford to give,
Except love.
Let's give love.
Let's give love.
Let's give each other all the love we've got to give.
Let's give each other all the love we got.

You want to give me a present?
Give me your fall, winter, summer, spring.
You know as well as I, all of the gadgets and the trinkets,
The toys you can buy, don't mean a thing
In the end:

Our money won't be much good anyway
When cities crumble and collapse one day.
Look at us; the sheltered lives we live!
We've got three of every gift we can afford,
So let's give love.
Let's give love.
Let's give love.
Let's give each other all the love we've got to give.
Let's give each other all the love that we got.

'Cause our ancestors managed to do what they could,
But these days, we know far too much for our own good.
When will we stop scheming and start loving?
We're so wrapped up in the game we're running!

Our money won't be much good anyway
When cities crumble and collapse one day.
Look at us; the sheltered lives we live!
You've got three of every gift I could afford to give,
Except love.
Let's give love.
Let's give love.
Let's give each other all the love we've got to give.
Let's give each other all the love we've got to give.
Let's give each other all the love we've got to give.
Let's give each other all the love that we got.
