DOKKEN LYRICS

1. Crash 'N Burn

[White, Dokken]

I considered all the chances that were mine
I believed they'd find solutions just in time
I believed they had more answers than I'd heard
The angels sing a different song

Strangers all around us, "Trust in me " they say
"We have got the answers, to save the world today."

I considered all the things they said.
Paper plans drawn out but never read
To save us from our darkest fears
We close our eyes and trust that time will find a way
How we trusted in you, no one knows for sure
Still its all but over, sailing on a ship of fools

[CHORUS:]
Crash 'N Burn..To live again
Up from the ashes I rise
What was clear, the tragedy
Took all my chances away

Crash 'N Burn...To live again
Up from the ashes I rise
Only to find its a lie

Listening to the radio, it seemed to me
Prophets selling fast cars and a dream
Send your money to us right away
There's a seat reserved for you
At the holy altar
You can live for free
In the name of his name
For eternity

[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE]

Too many words have been spoken
So many people divine
Too many questions rise from my heart
Answers I may never find... before I

[CHORUS]

2. 1000 Miles Away

[Dokken, Norum]

Just like sand running through my hands
We tried to hold love but it just slipped away
Was I so wrong to keep you holding on
Hoping someday tgat we wiykd fubd a way...to make love stay

[CHORUS:]
There's nothing left to say
As I send these words a thousand miles away
Still holding on to the memories
Lost in your heart, blinded by love, you said
If we had known, we could have found a way
Is it too late to bring you back to me again.

[CHORUS]
[SOLO]
[BRIDGE]

Lost in our hearts
We'll be forever yearning
Tears in our eyes
Atart to fall, just like rain
Only for you

[CHORUS OUT]

3. When Some Nights

[White, Norum, Dokken]

Take me back, to a time I remember well
It's a fact, when your near
You know we could stop the world
If I'm wrong, then alright
You know it doesn't matter now
In my heart, you are mine
You know we're gonna make it somehow
Say it's not over yet
I can be anything, just for you I can make it right
Fortunes told in love's hearts, it doesn't have
to keep us apart
I'm a soldier of fortune, fighting for a means to an end
If there's love in you eyes, it's only
gonna take one night
Yeah, say it's not over and remember

[1st CHORUS:]
When some night you are lonely
You just call out my name
I will make you mine only
Make you mine only again

On the wings of a tear
You know we could ride the storm
Like desire, I was born
To give you everything and more
If you're a soldier of fortune
Fighting for a means to an end
If there's love in your eyes
It's plainer than the world we share
Yeah, say its not over and remember

[2nd CHORUS:]
When some nights you are lonely
You just call out my name
I'll make you mine only
Make you mine only again

Hold on to what you have
And not what you think is yours
Too many stand there
Blinded by the Light, They don't see.

Take me back to a time I remember well
It's a fact, when you're near
You know we could stop the world
So Remember...

[2nd CHORUS]

4. Forever

[Dokken, Davis]

Searching for answers
I found one
Looking for roses
But the season is gone

I see the eyes of a stranger
I don't know you anymore
I know my heart is in danger
Lost in you just like before

Searching for reasons
One more time
As we turn back the pages
Who said love isn't blind?

As I reached out for heaven
You were all I could see
You told me "Try to imagine...
Forever...just you and me"

[1st CHORUS:]
It was the word that you said
That took you into my heart
It was the work you said
Forever....
Lost in the sea...of my memories
Whispered emotions, passions unbared
In the heat of the moment
So many things that we said

You found the end of my sadness
You buried all of my pain
Now love's turned into madness
Echoes are all that remain

[2nd CHORUS:]
It was the word that you said
That took you into my heart
It was the tears that we shed
Forever....Lost in the sea

[1st CHORUS:]
Just memories...forever lost just like me

[2nd CHORUS]
[1st CHORUS]

5. Living A Lie

[Norum, Dokken]

Does it seem that we're going nowhere again
Can it be that love has passed us by the way
Can't say that we played the game so well
Are we to a point where time stands still
Nothing can save us now

If you only want to believe in fairy tales and dreams
If I'm not what you're looking for set me free

[CHORUS:]
Living a Lie, now that your love has run
Living a lie, now that you've come and gone

It's sad to think what we have wasted
Over and over trying to make you see
Feelings are not something you can play with
Maybe once, but never twice
Better listen to my advice

If your gonna believe in someone who still cares for you
If your wanna believe in fantasies say we're through

In my darkness I will find the light
Lone survivor, someone to save me
When I look back I think of all the years
Wasted on your love...it's over now

So if you wanna believe in someone who still cares for you
If your wanna believe in fantasies Say we're through

[CHORUS]

Living a lie
Living a lie
Living a lie

6. When Love Finds A Fool

[Dokken, Hughes]

I could've told you
All these tears, what good to they do
All these years my life's been living
It's a shame you've not been giving

So tell me what to do
And I'll be there for you, only for you

[CHORUS:]

When love finds a fool like me, it doesn't see
When love finds a fool, baby, like me
I could've been the one

Sad empty faces look to my eyes
They seem to know me
I can take the rejection
All I need is your affection

I should've seen it coming
You should've said 'goodbye'
I guess you were right

[CHORUS]
[SOLO]
[CHORUS]

7. Give It Up

[Dokken, White]

In one man's mind, we could have anything
In one man's life, we could lose everything

Look to the sky to what the future would bring to me
'Cause when it's all said and done
Who's gonna put away the gun

So give it up
Stop all you fighting, yeah, yeah,
So, give it up
It's my world
We're dancing with destruction

Just one more chance knocks opportunity
But it won't wait if we don't find the key

Listen to me, I've had enough of the sorrow and pain
'Cause when it's all said and done
Who's gonna put away the gun

So give it up
Stop all you fighting, yeah, yeah,
So, give it up
It's my world
Are we too blind to see (Don't fuck it up for me)

8. Mirror Mirror

[Dokken, White, Spiro]

Look inside my eyes
You can see everywhere I've been
You can drag me down, I'll come right back again.

You gotta hold on to every little thing
Every little bag of bones
When the love's gone you shoot from the hip
You make or break it on your own
Love takes your heart away and gives it back in pieces
I look at myself and say Now all I have to say
(is)'I know who to believe in'

[CHORUS:]
Mirror, mirror on the wall
I'm still here, I survived it all
Mirror, mirror, tell me more.
If that was love then love is war.

I am gonna fight until I win
Another place in time, I might have given in

[CHORUS]

9. Stay

[Dokken, Brown]

Girl, when I think of you, you know it makes me sad
And I wonder, wonder about what we had

Say we're over baby T
That we're through
Can't believe it say that it's not true
Please believe me when I say I do
I'm still loving you,loving you
loving you

[CHORUS:]
Won't you stay
Can't you see my love is waiting here
Darling, stay
Don't you leave me drowning in my tears

Do ya love me baby let me know
Show your feelings
'Cause I gotta know

Am I wasting my time, am I being a fool
For loving you, loving you
Every night your name is on my lips
I feel your body at my fingertips
Please believe me when I say I do
Am I a fool?

[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE]

Won't you touch me and stay for awhile
I need you so badly
Darling...
Won't you stay

10. Down In Flames

[Dokken, White]

It's my heart feeling heavy
Down about the way that you treat me
Is your love still on fire
Show that your touch has desire

If I give you all I need
Would you still be there for me
I don't think so...no, no, no

I can't wait any longer
Can't you see that I feel like I'm going

[1st CHORUS:]
Down in flames...You're taking control
Of my heart and I'm going
Down in Flames...straight to the ground over you.

Must I be so mistreated
Now there's no more to be foregiven
I can't play any longer
Time that I became just a wanderer

Had you said you'd really cared
Don't you know that I'd be there
I don't think so...no, no, no
I can't wait any longer
Can't you see that I feel like I'm going

[2nd CHORUS:]
Down in flames...You're taking control
Of my heart and I'm going
Down in Flames...straight to the ground over you.
Down in flames...You're taking control
Of my heart and I'm going
Down in Flames...straight to the ground over you.

[SOLO]
[BRIDGE]

Send back my heart, give me control
Must I be so mistreated, there's no win or lose
I guess I'm goin'

[2nd CHORUS]

I guess I'm goin'

11. The Hunger

[Dokken, White]

What's wrong with you may be right for me
Don't need to feel your sympathy, no
In the dark
I feel at home
I need the night to make my feelings known

Alright like lone wolf, can't you see
Living in false realities
Do you know just how I feel, can't explain it,
but its real

Lost in a world full of fear, it gives me passion
I'm just a lone wolf who's waiting
Waiting for life's attraction to give me

[1st CHORUS:]
The hunger...burning in my soul
With the hunger...everybody knows
It's the hunger to give me what I need
With the hunger...satisfaction guaranteed

Blackened sky on a full moon rise
Destiny, it calls to me
Some call it love, some call it more
I'll play that game if it gets me through the door

Alright like lone wolf, can't you see
Living in false realities
Do you know just how I feel, can't explain it,
but its real

Lost in a world full of fear, it gives me passion
I'm just a lone wolf who's waiting
Waiting for life's attraction to give me

[2nd CHORUS:]
The hunger...burning in my soul
With the hunger...everybody knows
It's the hunger to give me what I need
With the hunger..take a walk with me

[BRIDGE]

In the night I call your name
As we stop to play the game
It is it love or fantasy
Living false realities

[SOLO]
[1st CHORUS]

The Hunger [3X]
It's the hunger....
