Lyrics Twisted

01. Set Me Free

If you travel down the road
Don't know which way to go
Follow me
If your life is on the line
And you feel a little shy
Come with me

Follow me
Let me set you free
Come with me
Let me set you free
Follow me
Love will set you free
Come with me
Let me set you free

If you've got no place to stay
At the end of your day
Take my key
If you've got a troubled mind
You’re running out of time
Let me set you free

Chorus

If you feel a little pain
And you’re standing in the rain
Come with me
When all you hear is gone
And you don't know right from wrong
Follow me

02. Pretty Maureen

She’s been living round the corner
She’s the best I've ever seen
Green brown eyes
She’s a daytime dream
A little lady love
Walking down the lane
A clean white dove
Maureen is her name

You got to wake up and smell the roses
You've got to wake up next to me
Put a candle in your window
So it’s clear enough to see
Pretty Maureen

Hey hey honey bee
Tell me where to go
It’s been so long times
We're moving way to soon
Have some fun
Stick around with me
Wild romance
Creeping up on me

Chorus

She gives me good good feelings
She's such a pretty sight
Makes life worth living
Got me doing all right
Hey hey sugar
Do you feel the same
I bet she does
Maureen is her name

03. Twisted

There's nothing left for you
Of days that use to be
Better times you had
Are just a memory
You’re clutching on a straw
You’re hanging on a leash
You try to get some rays
On a empty beach

Your mind is twisted and you can't go back
You’re rolling down a one way track
Twisted you can't stop now
There's no way you can't slow down
Twisted and you can't go back
You’re rolling down a one way track
Twisted you can't stop now
There's no way you can't slow down

You're mean and just plain dirty
You’re an evil wicked witch
Right hand of the devil
Mephistopheles

Chorus

One hundred miles an hour
Is the speed you drive
You behold an evil power girl
Your souls as dark as night

04. Colorado

As I look on down the hill
Got me quite a pretty view
White Mountain top
In a sky of blue
I wake up in the garden
Underneath the blossom tree
Couldn't believe
This all been happening to me

Give me sunshine, give me flowers
Give me fields of green
Fly me back to Colorado
Want to live the dream
Give me shelter, purple mountains
Give me fields of wheat
Going back to Colorado
Got to live the dream

As I sit here on the front porch
Thinking of you
Loneliness feels different
Under skies of blue
I wake up in a cold sweat
Underneath the blossom tree
Couldn't believe
This all been happening to me

Chorus

As I look on down the road
When mountains pass my view
While riding on the towering height
Beneath the skies of blue
I wake up in a garden
Near the waters stream
Couldn't believe
This all been happening to me

05. Leave Me Blue

I've been up and down the road
Looking for a glimpse of you
I've been over my head
There's something that I've got to do
Is it a letter that I need to write
Is it a telephone call
Do I have to lie awake all night
Or should I do nothing at all

I can't wait another year
Am I getting through
Maybe I'm living in the past
I know that it might be true
Am I afraid of losing face
Will you leave me blue
Maybe I'm going a little fast
Will you tell me if I do

Tell me words I like to hear
I will give all I've got to give
As long as I can hold you near
I want live the life you live
Let me whisper in your ear
I'm going to treat you right
You won't shed another tear
When ever you’re by my side

Chorus

There is nothing in the world
That means so much
Than a little touch of you
If you only throw a smile
It will make me feel brand new

07. Gold and Gray

Just woke up this morning
Whisky on my breath
Too many things to worry
How I need a rest
Yes you might call it
No problem at all
To me it’s hard enough
I'm close to a fall

It could be that it’s not my day
Don't hold me to the words I say

Life can be a drag sometimes
Life can be ok
Joyful if the sun do shine
Empty gold and gray

Looking for someone
Whose not there
Long time on the road
Got to get out
Of this town
Before my head explodes

It could be that it’s not my day
Don't hold me to the words I say

Chorus

Life’s been made for having fun
Life can bring you pain
Happiness under the sun
Empty gold and gray

08. Still of the Night

Yesterday you came my way
And when you smiled at me
In my heart
I feel that thrill you seek
Oh I can't break away
I must have you every day
Couldn't take or leave alone
I need you for my own

In the still of the night
It was love at first sight
Still I never dreamed that you
Could love me too
In the still of the night
When you’re by my side
I fill with pride for
I'm so proud of you

Every kiss every hug
Seems to act just like a drug
You’re getting to be
A habit with me
Let me stay in your arms
I'm addicted to your charms
You’re getting to be
A habit with me

Chorus

Skies are gray
I'm blue each day
Couldn't take or leave alone
I need you for my own
Your eyes are blue
Your kisses too
I never knew what they could do
I need you for my own

Chorus

Yesterday you came my way
And when you smiled at me
In my heart
I feel that thrill you seek
Oh I can't break away
I must have you every day
Couldn't take or leave alone
I need you for my own

09. The Game

Loves the name of this game
Luck is going your way
I keep losing
Now I'm refusing to play
Loves the name of this game
Luck is going your way
I keep losing
Now I'm refusing to play

I've been mistreated
I've been hurt
I've got loss on the way
More than twice a day
I've spent
Many years
To the wrong girl
Who destroyed my world

Chorus

So many times
I've been lonely
Rain and thunder
Put me to sleep
Felt that I
Was the only
Who'd ever been
In trouble so deep

Chorus

I've had enough
I feel empty
I can't take anymore
I'm closing the door
Too tough
Too explosive
Wondering why
I am doing it for
