Natasha Dance
Album Quiet RevolutionBy Chris de BurghWritten by Chris de Burgh

Natasha brings me kisses in the moonlight,
She kneels above me, silk upon my skin,
I reach for her, and I can feel her heartbeat,

Beneath her breast so heavy in my hand;
The rain is running rivers on my window,
And shimmers on the streetlights down below,
She's happy when I hold her in the shadows,
And whispers of a life I've never known;

And will you dance, Natasha dance for me,
Because I want to feel the passion in your soul,
And when you dance, will you tell me in a story,
The joy and pain of living in your world;

And with the light I wake up in the morning,
And she has gone, it must have been a dream,
And then I see the roses on my pillow,
And now I know that she will come again;

And she will dance, Natasha dance for me,
Again I want to feel the passion in your soul,
And when you move, will you show me in a story,
The joy and pain of living in your world;

Natasha dance for me...

   

New Moon
Album Far Beyond These Castle WallsBy John Lennon / Paul McCartneyWritten by Chris de Burgh

A new moon is laughing up there in the sky, but
My love is crying and I'll tell you why...

Crisis and confusion when she came along,
Followed by delusion when I found out that I was wrong,
She said "Baby, we're cruising along on the crest of a wave,"
And I said "Maybe, but baby I'm losing, and the only wave is goodbye"...

'Cos just when I'm starting to burn with desire,
My blood's getting hot and the flames rising higher,
She says "Goodnight"...
And leaves me on fire, and I'm so sorry my love,
I gotta say goodbye, ooh, ohh.

A new moon, a new tune, another song is coming soon,
New moon, new day, another love is coming my way,
She took my heart, and without a word she tore it apart, ooh,
New moon, so bright, shine your light on me for the rest of the night...

Scenes of soft seduction, spinning through my head,
Watching her deduction as I lay grinning on my bed,
Sie said "Honey, it's so moving, I can almost see our wedding day,"
And I said "Funny, you'd better start grooving honey or the only move is away"...

And then she turned with that look in her eye,
And I know that bad weather'll be here by and by,
And sure enough, she started to cry, and I'm so sorry my love,
I really gotta fly, ooh, ohh...

A new moon, a new tune, another song is coming soon,
New moon, new day, another love is coming my way,
She took my heart, and without a word she tore it apart, ooh,
New moon, so bright ... ooh shine your light on me for the rest of the night...
New moon, new moon ... oh, oh, new moon,
Bye, bye, bye, new moon, bye, bye, new moon.

   

A Night On The River
Album Flying ColoursBy Chris de BurghWritten by Chris de Burgh

Naked and frozen at the side of a lake,
I think I've gone and made my big mistake,
I took her swimming, we had a fight,
Now my clothes and the lady are well out of sight;

And it looks like I'm heading for a night on the river,
Under the moon and the stars,
Looks like I'm heading for a night on the river,
Me and my beating heart, singing in the dark;

Naked and frozen at the side of a lake,
If she was here I wouldn't hesitate,
To tell her how, the way things are,
With a long conversation in the back of a car;

And it looks like I'm heading for a night on the river,
Under the moon and the stars,
Could be I'm heading for a night on the river,
Just me and my beating heart, singing in the dark;

I think she owes me an explanation,
She's got the whip hand in this situation,
If I try to tell her just the way I feel,
It could start the whole thing all over again;

Ooh, I think I'm heading for a night on the river,
Under the moon and the stars,
Could be I'm heading for a night on the river,
But I see the lights of a car, shining in the dark,

Ooh, could be we're heading for a mm-mm,
Under the moon and the stars,
Could be we're heading for a mm-mm,
Just you and me and our beating hearts,
We're singing in the dark...

   

Nothing Ever Happens Round Here
Album Quiet RevolutionBy Chris de BurghWritten by Chris de Burgh

She was a girl from a one horse town, The only place for miles around,
Cutting hair in the modern style, Putting in the nine to five,
but every night it was the same old dream,
On the cover of a magazine,
She looked good, but it could never come true,
'Cos nothing ever happens round here,
Nothing ever happens round here;

She had a boyfriend in the town, He spent his days just messing around,
With stick shifts and steering wheels, Motorbikes and automobiles,
And every night it was the same old thing,
Meet the boys for a couple of drinks,
Shoot pool and talk about girls,
And nothing ever happens round here,
Nothing ever happens round here;

They said nothing, no nothing, Nothing ever happens round here,
Nothing, no nothing, Nothing ever happens round here.

One day in a local bar, She heard a movie man was looking for a star,
And everybody in the whole damn town, Got the call to come on down,
And when she walked into the room,
Every heart went BOOM BOOM BOOM,
- Who's that girl?
She's exactly what were looking for,
But nothing ever happens round here, Nothing ever happens round here;

They said nothing, no nothing, Nothing ever happens round here,
Nothing, no nothing, Nothing ever happens round here;

And so she took a screen test, No doubt that she was the best,
The camera fell in love with her,
Before she knew it she was on the way to make that dream come true;

Now she's living in Hollywood, And everything is looking good,
She thinks about the folks back home, And her boyfriend all alone,
but every night it's still the same old thing,
Meet the boys for a couple of drinks,
Shoot pool and talk about girls,
And nothing ever happens round here,
Nothing ever happens round here,

They said nothing, no nothing, Nothing ever happens round here,
Nothing, no nothing, Nothing ever happens round here;
