Lyrics – Silence Running (On Dangerous Ground)

Take the children and yourself
And hide out in the cellar
By now the fighting will be close at hand
Don’t believe the church and state
And everything they tell you
Believe in me, I’m with the high command

Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?

There’s a gun and ammunition
Just inside the doorway
Use it only in emergency
Better you should pray to God
The Father and the Spirit
Will guide you and protect from up here

Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?

Swear allegiance to the flag
Whatever flag they offer
Never hint at what you really feel
Teach the children quietly
For some day sons and daughters
Will rise up and fight while we stood still

Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?

Can you hear me running (can you hear me calling you?)
(Can you hear me) hear me calling you?
(Can you hear me running) hear me running babe?
(Can you hear me running) hear me running?
Calling you, calling you

Lyrics – I Get The Feeling

I get the feeling that I’ve been here before
Saying all these things to you
I get the feeling that I fell through that door
Coming down with deja-vu

There’s no emotion, nothing at all
You don’t even know my name
I get the notion that you don’t recall
So here we go and here we go
Here we go again

It’s no good saying that you’ve
Never been in love before
No good explaining that you’ve
Never been in love before

And no good denying, I’ve seen
Them coming back for more
I know you’re lying, baby ’cause your name
Is written on that door
Oh, baby

I get the feeling that you’ve been here before
Saying all these things to me
I get the feeling that I’m just a chore
You don’t give your love for free

There’s no excuses, nothing to say
You just play those little games
I get the feeling it would turn out this way
So here we go, here we go
Here we go again

And your love has given me
What I never, never had before
But the way you’re living
I just never, never know the score

Oh, I’m though with trying
And I say I can take no more
But you know I’m lying baby
When you hear me knocking at that door
Oh girl

I get the feeling by the look on your face
Could be the right time but it sure is the wrong place
I get the feeling that nothing I say
Is gonna change a single thing
Gonna make you come away

Oh, I get the feeling
Oh, I got the feeling
Here we go again
Here we go again
Here we go

I get the feeling
Yeah, get the feeling
No, no, no, tell me now, now
Never been in love before

Don’t try tell me
Don’t try tell me about it, oh
Never been in love before
I don’t believe it darling, no
