         1.  DON'T STOP AT THE TOP    4:03  (**)
              Schenker/Meine/Rarebell

You never take the easy way
The wind is blowing straight into your face
You never ever close your eyes
For any trouble that may cross your way
There's no risk that you're not taking
Not a mountain that's too high
Spread your wings you're gonna make it
To the best time of your life

Don't stop at the top
Touch the sky before you drop

You never make a compromise
Your will has got the power that won't break
You never say never to a challenge
That  will come along the way
There's no risk that you're not taking
Not a mountain that's too high
Spread your wings you're gonna make it
To the best time of your life

Don't stop at the top
Touch the sky before you drop

Never stop!  Don't stop at the top


         2.  RHYTHM OF LOVE    3:47         (*)
               Schenker/Meine

Let's spend the night together
I know you want it too
The magic of the moment
Is what I've got for you
The heartbeat of this night
Is made to lose control
And there's something in your eyes
That's longing for some more
Let us find together
The beat we're looking for

The rhythm of love
Keeps me dancing on the road
The rhythm of love
Got the groove that hits the bone
The rhythm of love
Is the game I'm looking for
The rhythm of love
Is the heartbeat of my soul

Let's reach the top together
One night will never do
An exploding shop of pleasure
Is what I've got for you
Why don't you close your eyes
And let your feeling grow
I make you feel the taste of life
Until your love will flow
Let us find together
The beat we're longing for

The rhythm of love
Keeps me dancing on the road
The rhythm of love
Got the groove that hits the bone
The rhythm of love
Is the game I'm looking for
The rhythm of love
Is the heartbeat of my soul

Let us find together
The beat we're looking for


         3.  PASSION RULES THE GAME    3:58 (**)

Stranded in this town
My machine slows down
To take me where the night begins
I'm playing everywhere
Loving here and there
I always take the chance to win
Drove a million miles
Gambling rules my life
I only stop to start again
I reach out thruogh the air
Good luck is everywhere
Can almost touch it with my hands

Just a little luck tonight
Will do and dreams come true
Just a little luck tonight
I can't stop the will
That turns the ball of steel

When passion rules the game
I ain't got no control, when my heart's in flames

I'm a stranger in this town
Live takes me up and down
I'll break the score until I'm free
Can't stop to roll the dice
And in the morning light
A girl like you is all I need

Don't you need some love tonight
I do, yes I do
Don't you need some love tonight
How can we stand the heat
When love is all we need

When passion rules the game
I ain't got no control, when my heart's in flames


         4.  MEDIA OVERKILL    3:32         (**)
               Schenker/Meine

They're watching me
They're watching you
Taking all the world under control
They make you laugh
They make you blue
In the end they try to eat your soul

Satellites transmit the latest thrill
We can't escape the media overkill

A purple flash
The biggest crash
Totally in tune around the world
They take you high
They take you cry
We are at the point of no return

Satellites transmit the latest thrill
We can't escape the media overkill

Over and over and over


         5.  WALKING ON THE EDGE    5:05    (*)
               Schenker/Meine

Welcome to a trip
Into my hurt feelings
To the center of my soul
You better bring a light
To find the house of meanings
In the labyrinth of yes or no
For you, life is just like chess
If you don't make the move
You'll lose the game like this

Cause you, you're walking at the edge
You, you chose the way of love and pain
You, don't you see the bridge
I've built for you, it's just one step to start again

Welcome to a trip
Into my emotions
To the language of my heart
You're sailing on a river
That becomes an ocean
Which you can only cross with love

For you, life is just like chess
If you don't make the move
You'll lose the game like this

Cause you, you're walking at the edge
You, you chose the way of love and pain
You, don't you see the bridge
I've built for you, it's just one step to start again



                     Side Two


         6.  WE LET IT ROCK ... YOU LET IT ROLL    3:38  (**)
               Schenker/Meine

We come to you through a storm of lighting
To drive this place totally insane
Another show that really keeps us fighting
For what it takes to blow your mind away
Hey you, are you ready for tonight
Can you hear me now
Let me hear you too

We come to you through a wall of thunder
Electrified by the sound of the guitars
Hey you, are you ready for tonight
Can you see me now
I wanna see you out there

We let it rock to free you energy
You let it roll, come on get on your feet
We letit rock to feed your hungry dreams
You let it roll, up to the ecstasy

We come to you through a burst of fire
Energized by the feedback of the crowd
Hey you, are you ready for tonight
Can you feel me now
Can you feel the groove

We let it rock to free you energy
You let it roll, come on get on your feet
We letit rock to feed your hungry dreams
You let it roll, up to the ecstasy


         7.  EVERY MINUTE EVERY DAY    4:21   (**)
               Schenker/Meine

Well it seems that I was lost
In intoxicated nights
Following the trace of ecstasy 
With no future and no past
Just the present was alive
Like a prisoner chained on to a dream
I was drowning in a feeling
That obsession rules
'Till the morning kills the creatures of the night
And I read your lipstick message
On the mirror of the truth
Now that you're gone I realize
Without you
Live's like a song without music
Without you 
This world won't be the same

I need you love, every minute
I need you love, every day
I need you love, every minute
I need you love, come back and stay

Well I know that I was lost
In the nightmare of my life
Following the flash of fantasy
In a feeling that exploded
I'd left reality behind
Addicted to the power of a dream
Without you
Life's like a road that leads nowhere
Without you
This world won't feel the same

I need you love, every minute
I need you love, every day
I need you love, every minute
I need you love, come back and stay


         8.  LOVE ON THE RUN    3:35        (*)
               Schenker/Meine/Rarebell

I love you once
Rock you twice
My love's a gun that wants to talk tonight
I kiss the lust
Right from your lips
The way it feels will hit you like a blitz
Day after day
Day afetr day I rock the speed
Night after night
Night after night

Love on the run 
Always loaded like a gun
For love

Turn outside in
And inside out
With me you'll find the kicks you've never found
I kiss the pearl
Right from the shell
Untill you'll feel what all these words can't tell
Day after day
Day after day I'm burning free
Night after night
Night after night

Love on the run 
Always loaded like a gun
For love


         9.  BELIEVE IN LOVE    5:20        (*)
               Schenker/Meine

How does it feel babe
To taste sweet revenge
Do you want me on my knees
Hoe does it feel babe
To let me feel your strength
Don't be cruel, can't you see
If you don't catch me now
I can't stop falling down
Just one more nigh and the devil's got my soul
I need your love babe, don't tell me "no way"
Babe I miss you so much more than words can say

How does it feel babe
To kill our destiny
I swear I'm not gonna crawl oh no
How does it feel babe
To make a fool out of me
How can you be so cold
If you don't catch me now
I can't stop falling down
Just one more nigh and the devil's got my soul
I need your love babe don't treat me this way
Ooh I miss you, I miss you

Babe our love's got waht it takes 
To give us one more chance to start once again
Babe our love will find a way
As long as we believe in love
