One Thing Leads to Another - The Fixx

Shooting stars are flying Memories of a light that came and went The best times in my life were times we spent I've never felt so close to a friend Then one thing led to another And you ran your hands through my hair Before we knew it we were making love In the midnight air And now it's one thing after another Closing doors on each other You know I'd do anything you ask me to But it's one thing after another We somehow end up fighting Over little things we used to laugh about Our minds once fixed on dreams we shared Now, torn apart by doubt And though we've tried to piece this back together It's just one thing after another Who would have thought this could happen with us? The vows we once made, now covered in dust Warning signs don't always appear We let our hearts guide us And ended up here And it's one thing after another Closing doors on each other And though we've tried everything to start anew It's one thing after another One thing after another

Do I feel alright? I'll go anywhere you say you wanna to take me Save me, run away-ay-ay, steal away-ay-ay 'Cause I feel alright I'll do anything you say you wanna make me Take me, far away-ay-ay, run away-ay-ay We've been up all night Tryin' to avoid a situation Hold me, let me feel your way 'Cause I wanna stay Let them all start talkin' We won't give ourselves away Our love leads to madness Our love leads to madness Our love leads to madness Do you feel alright? And can you see me when you're lookin' in your mirror? Crazy, try to find a way, so your heart don't pay Run away-ay-ay Don't you give yourself away Our love leads to madness Our love leads to madness Our love leads to madness Our love leads to madness (Written by nazareth) Copyright 1982 fool circle music limited Lyrics used by permission All rights reserved.

Burn a bridge, blow up a car Torch a flag, I'd bear the scar Hustle for peace, settle for less Fundamentals make their bets The battle lost is irony Damming down, what's in it for me? Out for lunch, I felt the weight Believing everything I've read Getting closer Don't you feel closer? This gaping monster of apathy Tell me man, what is it to be? There's freedom of choice, a choice or not? There's so much to lose, many have not The pressure builds, anger grows Blows the lid as it overthrows Blind rage, counting death Moving orders, lost the town Getting closer Getting closer Getting closer How far from closer? Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah Gas or electric fuel Noah's Ark This is where I get off, fools disembark Left behind in paper and pen Revolution invents again We're free as far as we can throw the key A prison of reason makes room for me Strike a chord, hit a nerve Not fit for purpose or to serve Well, is it a bird? Is it a drone? A violent peace protects our home Talking robots are on the calls Self deluded on a smart dumb phone Why cast a spell when you can send a text? Mesmerized and we've all been hexed Now the targets where we shop I'm overdosing as the penny drops And it's getting closer Don't you feel closer? Getting closer Far from closer Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah Closer Closer No sir Don't you feel Closer? Closer No sir! Don't you feel Closer? Come a little closer Don't you feel Closer?

Forbidden Image Do you care to think on One trouble shooter That we could fix on This fevered globe Was always meant to be A home from home But who's looking after Lose face, lose face In your place Could we all fight in An age demented With a white bright light That shines at night What have we invented? We all breathe in the same air Yet we all die for the air space Lose face, lose face Standing in your place (Don't you worry that you're too scared) Lose face, lose face I bet you wonder if you're too scared Too scared to lose face (Don't you worry that you're too scared) Lose face, lose face in your place Lose it Lose it Come on Lose it Lose it A "pied a'terre" No phone connected So when you need him Can't even reach him This fevered globe Was always meant to be A home from home But who's looking after Lose face, lose face Standing in your place (Don't you worry that you're too scared) Lose face, lose face I bet you wonder if you're too scared Too scared to lose face (Don't you worry that you're too scared) Lose face, lose face in your place Lose it We all lose Lose it Breathing the same air (Repeat x 3)
