 EVERYTHING I OWN
(1987)
 
 
You sheltered me from harm
Kept me warm, you kept me warm
You gave my life to me
You set me free, set me free
Of all the years I ever knew
Those finer ones I spent with you
I would give everything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
You taught me how to cry
I don't know why, just don't know why
You told those lies to me
You set me free, set me free
Of all the years I ever knew
Those finer ones I spent with you
I would give everything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
Just to hold you once again
If there's someone you know
That won't let you go
And is taking it all for granted
You may lose them one day
Someone take them away
And you don't hear a word they say
I would give everything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
 
 KEEP ME IN MIND
(1987)
 
 
You got, you got, you got everything
You know I'm not someone
Who likes to wait around in line
You know I'm not someone
Who likes to waste a lot of time
Love will find the answer
In every little thing you do
Love will find the answer
And it's always gonna come to you
If you just keep me in mind
'Cause there may not be a second time
Keep me in mind
For the rest of your life
Keep me in mind
For the rest of your life
Keep me in mind
You know I'm not someone
Who likes to use words like love
You know I'm not someone
Who likes to put myself above
Love will find the answer
In every little thing you do
Love will find the answer
And it's always gonna come to you
If you just keep me in mind
'Cause there may not be a second time
Keep me in mind
For the rest of your life
Keep me in mind
For the rest of your life
Keep me in mind
Love will find the answer
And it's always gonna come to you
If you just keep me in mind
'Cause there may not be a second time
Keep me in mind
For the rest of your life
Keep me in mind
For the rest of your life
Keep me in mind

Last night my mother said to me
I'm sick of making history
There's got to be a better way
But we've got all these bills to pay
And they ain't just gonna go away
Like a factory - about to be shut down
Another factory - about to be shut down
Sold - did you hear it? - I'm sold
Sold - did you hear it? - I'm sold
Sold - did you hear it? - I'm sold
You're gonna like this one, you're gonna like this one
I do
See if Mr. Botha was a man
He'd tip the hat, he'd pass the can
But he don't talk for you and me
I saw him on the BBC
His eyes looked like a factory
About to be shut down
His eyes looked like a factory
With the lights out - about to be shut down
Sold - did you hear it? - I'm sold
Sold - did you hear it? - I'm sold
Sold - did you hear it? - I'm sold
Last night my mother said to me
I'm sick of making history
There's got to be a better way
For you to be
Last night my mother said to me
When you grow up what will you be
If not the white minority
At least protect me
I'm not a factory about to be shut down
Sold - did you hear it? - I'm sold
Sold - did you hear it? - I'm sold
Sold - did you hear it? - I'm sold
Sold - There's got to be a better way than this
 
 TO BE REBORN
(1987)
 
 
Get off your knees
Don't apologise
'Cause I ain't got no time
For no more lies
You know the answer
I gave it to you
But you carry on
With the things that you do
Yes I have tried
I, I could live, I could die
I could be reborn in your arms
I, I could laugh, I could cry, I could sigh if you're there
To keep me warm
To keep me warm, warm, warm
Talk to me
Open your eyes
Talk to me
Lose the disguise
We had good love
Most of the time
Give it back
That love is mine
Give it back
Just one more time
I, I could live, I could die
I could be reborn in your arms
I, I could laugh, I could cry, I could sigh if you're there
To keep me warm
To keep me warm, warm, warm
I know the answer
What can we do
I know the answer, yeah
So do you
I gave you love
I gave it to you
I gave you love - something new
I gave you love
I, I could live, I could die
I could be reborn in your arms
I, I could laugh, I could cry, I could sigh if you're there
To keep me warm
To keep me warm, warm, warm
