Conquest lyrics

I'm at the point of no return
I'm watching the candle burn
Both ends
There's a lesson we
Both can learn - this time
So if you wanna make my day
There's something
You've gotta say
Now please don't laugh
And turn away - this time
I don't wanna make a fuss
But this is the time for us
And I ain't gonna miss the buss
This time

No return
So there'll be no turning back
Once I know that

Sometimes I'm certain
Sometimes my mind is
Filled with doubt
Some thoughts lay heavy here
Sometimes I think it's figured out
Imagination
Endless voyage of discovery
I'm at once impatient and afraid
Some day you may walk out on me

At least when you're with me
I'm not afraid to live with mystery
I'm sure you know how sad
One night without a dream can be

I know this feeling inside
Has just made up my mind
I'm gonna take this chance
And do what's in my heart
You always said that
You'd stand by me
And help me get along
So understand
I must do what's in my heart

I know this feeling inside
Has helped me to carry on
So as the days go by
And the nights that never end
You play the clubs
And you play the game
The next day you will find

Carry on ...

So what can I do, what can I say
Do I have to stand and
Watch you walk away
I know there's got to be
A better way
I just can't go on living for today

I thought I heard a voice
Out on the wind
And I'm sure I heard it say
I'd find a friend
And it said I'd find
The answers in the end
All I gotta do is carry on

Carry on, carry on, the time is flyin'

It's a quarter to seven
On a Saturday morning
I open my eyes
After the Friday night
I don't worry about
The rain upon my window
'Cause where I'm going
I know the sun will always shine

So now I'm heading away
Down to Rio de Janeiro
I'll be leaving all my
Lonely times behind
And if I'm looking for love in
Rio de Janeiro
There'll be someone there
I know who'll find the time

Out on the street, dead on my feet
At the mercy of the stone-cold night
It's hard to compete
In a dead-end street
With frustration in your line of sight
Do you ever stop to think
Do you ever stop at all
Do you have the time to feel
And if you do
Do you know the feeling's real

Followed a sign that
Pointed the way
And I found myself
Right back at that start
I like to feel good

You make it all sound easy
Now you've tasted all my wine
I never wanted to hear the news
That you'd found another man
But it's hard to see
What you want from me
It's not easy to be in-between
It's now up to you to
Make the move this time

But it ain't easy when you
Don't know where to turn
And it ain't easy
But you take the chance
The final chance to learn
Yes, to learn

At the age of eighteen
I had had enough
And by twenty one
I decided to get tough
And then I found the guard
was still too rough

And I've been hurt
Ever since that day
I've been hurt and I've lost my way
I still think I have a chance
To find your love

Well, I tried to love you
One day at a time
Each day waiting
Hoping for the sign
It was clear I needed luck
More than this time

She's got an eye on you
There's nowhere to hide
She keeps her motives still
Deep down inside
She shows no mercy, no
She plays it rough
She don't want no money
She just wants to love

Love stealer, raw dealer
Heart breaker, love taker
Yeah yeah ...

She walks in the shadows
As she waits for the night
She gets what she's looking for
She knows how to fight
If you see her coming

I've had all I can take
I've taken just too much
I've made a big mistake
That put me out of touch
I don't think I can face
Another single day
Without a call from you
To take this pain away

So many tears ago
You turned and walked away
It could've been the end
But I knew better
I had to tell myself
There'll be another day
She wants to call it quits
But don't you dare her

I was waiting for somebody
This afternoon
Hope that she remembered
Our rendezvouz
And when she didn't show
Just like yesterday
I do the last, I'll find another way

One night I saw the stranger
Across the hall
I knew he was the reason
Why she didn't call
I wish I had imagined
Or dreamt the lot
But the heart didn't choose
The pain I've got

Now she' turning me inside out

Don't let love make a fool of you
Love is meant to tellin' truth
And never any lies
Came to me by seein' truth
In each other's eyes
Each other's eyes

What kind of a fool
Do you think I am?
'Cos I have no money
Does it mean I'm half a man?
You know that I will give you all
Give you all that I can

You're lyin', tellin' me
What I should be
You're lyin', tellin' everyone it's me

Feelings, empty feelings
Prayin', hopin', needin'
Just when I wanted to hold you
You're leavin', you're leavin'
Leavin', you're leavin'

I remember those magic nights
Those nights when it
All seemed right
But I knew that by mornin'
You'd be gone
And though you tell me
That it's not for long
It ain't easy here holdin' on
You gotta tell me where I stand
