Hold On lyrics - Corey Hart

(from "Beverly Hills Cop II" soundtrack)

I've been accused
I don't conform to the rules like some other guys
It's not my bad side
The subject of life is chasin' down the sky
I question where my steps
Will take me now

Hold on, no sacrifices
Hold on 'cause I cut right through
Hold on to the edge where you'll find me
Hold on, such a pretty view
Won't you hold on for me?

I'm quite amused
By the prospects of my situation
I guess it's my bad side
I know you can't expect too much
I know that I won't play the part
Of no whipping boy, but I will

Hold on, no sacrifices
Hold on 'cause I cut right through
Hold on to the edge where you'll find me
Hold on, such a pretty view
Won't you hold on for me?

There will be no compromises
[?]
I suspect there are surprises
In every little thing I say
Here I go
Every little move I take

And I wonder where
My steps will take me now, oh, no
'Cause I won't play the part
Of no whipping boy, and I tell you

Hold on, no sacrifices
Hold on, 'cause I cut right through
Won't you hold on to the edge where you'll find me
Hold on, such a pretty view

Won't you hold on, no sacrifices
Hold on 'cause I cut right through to you
Hold on to the edge where you'll find me
Hold on 'cause I'll bring it right through to you

Oh, hold on for me
I said hold on for me
When the world is runnin' low
Hold on for me
And you won't let it go
Hold on for me
When the world is runnin' low
Hold on for me
'Cause I won't let it go
Hold on for me
When the world is runnin' down
Hold on for me
'Cause I will stand my ground
Hold on for me
When the world is runnin' down

Morning Sun lyrics - Corey Hart

Beneath the rusted sunset
Look back on the seasons
No reasons to find me regrets
Small house, big family
In two rooms living together
All I wanted to do was sing

With a burning desire
Like Muddy Waters sang the blues

Did I let you down? Did I break your heart?
Moving fast just like a ghost through the trees
Now we've kicked it around and look what we found
The most wonderful time of our lives
Face, face, face brave, gotta have
Face, face, face brave

I don't plan anything too much
Morning sun when it's in my face really shows my age
But these are good old lines

You can't help getting older
But that don't mean you need to get old

Did I let you down? Did I break your heart?
Moving fast just like a ghost through the trees
Now we've kicked it around and look what we found
The most wonderful time of our lives
Face, face, face brave, gotta have
Face, face, face brave

And if my best intentions
Sometimes went missing from the mark

Did I let you down? Did I break your heart?
Moving fast just like a ghost through the trees
Now we've kicked it around and look what we found
The most wonderful time of our lives
Face, face, face brave, you gotta have
Face, face, face brave, gotta live
Face, face, face brave

Shoreline lyrics - Corey Hart (feat. Dante Hart)

No man is an island, ya get what you give
Each other, we just gotta hold on till we make it this time
No man is an island, washed away in scattered pieces
We just gotta keep on brighter building the signs

Oh no, no matter what they're saying
Oh no, no matter what they're playing
Oh yeah, ask not for whom the bell tolls

No woman, no island, living for each other
We just gotta keep strong in the simple ways
No woman, no island, water feeds the ocean
I see the shoreline and it's calling my name
I see the shoreline and it's calling my name

Oh no, don't you get downhearted
Oh no, better days are coming
Oh yeah, the river moves and it flows unbroken

Oh no, no matter what they're saying
Oh no, no matter what they're playing
Oh yeah, ask not for whom the bell tolls

No man is an island, ya get what you give each other
We just gotta hold on till we make it this time
No woman no island, water feeds the ocean
I see the shoreline and it's calling my name
I said, I see the shoreline and it's calling my name

Sonny's Dream lyrics - Corey Hart & Alan Doyle

(originally by Ron Hynes)

Sonny lives on a farm on a wide open space
Where you can kick off your snickers and give up the race
You could lay down your head by the sweet river bed
But Sonny always remembers what it was his Mama said

Oh, Sonny don't go away, I am here all alone
And your daddy's a sailor who never comes home
When the nights get so long and the silence goes on
And I'm feeling so tired, not all that strong

Sonny carries a load though he's barely a man
There ain't all that to do, still he does what he can
And he watches the sea from a room by the stairs
And those waves, they keep rollin', they keep rollin' for years and years

Oh, Sonny's dream...

Sonny's dreams can't be real, they're just stories he's read
They're just stars in his eyes, they're just dreams in his head
And he's hungry inside for the wide world outside
And I know I can't hold him though I've tried and I've tried

Sonny don't go away, I am here all alone
And your daddy's a sailor who never comes home
When the nights get so long and the silence goes on
And I'm feeling so tired, I'm not that strong

Oh, Sonny's dream...

Araby (She's Just A Girl) lyrics - Corey Hart

Every morning through the crack in her door
I catch shadows of her beauty and I turn away
And my confused adoration grows with unanswered passions
That I can't turn away

She's just a girl, just a girl
She's just a girl that stirs my foolish blood now
She's just a girl, she's just a girl
(She's just a girl)
O, a girl, my window to the world

One night as I lay awake
I heard voices in my head and she spoke to me
I pressed my hands around my face
To lock images I feared would slip away

She's just a girl, just a girl
She's just a girl that stirs my foolish blood now
She's just a girl, she's just a girl
(She's just a girl)
O, a girl, my window to the world, go to Araby

And every day I wait for her there
And every day she isn't there, I walk the streets I walk alone
Oceans of sand are everywhere, I said yea

Two years I've not seen her
But the light she cast upon me still can burn a chill
And when your mind is on the loose
You can Araby yourself to your greatest thrill

She's just a girl, just a girl
She's just a girl that stirs my foolish blood now
She's just a girl, o the girl
She's just a girl, and everywhere I go now
She's just a girl, just a girl
(She's -)
O, a girl, my window to the world, go to Araby

Gone to Araby
I dream, I dream in Araby
I live for Araby
Close my eyes to Araby

Dinosaurs lyrics - Corey Hart

I'm fallin' down the same road
After all these years
See Van Gogh in my mirror cry
Tears won't hear the fears
In every haunted house move memories chasin'
A silhouette broken two
Canvas in my head paint sunrise glory
But starry night don't shine through
I'm terrified, I'm anxious
My body keeps shutting me down
Stuck in quicksand, everything is
Nasty underground
And I don't know where we're headed tonight
But I know it's gonna be with you
Maggie, you're the only woman
Who braves my heart for true
So when I'm feelin' sad

So when my fate looks very, very bad
Pay the ransom
I got the dinosaurs mad

Don't drag me back now
Back to the perils of my dark despair
Don't keep your heart now
Dragons and dungeons serving everywhere
I will go on being
So when you see me laughing
Remember there is joy if you think joy
Take me to the fountainhead
Let it roll, man
As much as everything will change
Everything stays the same
Maggie, you are still the one
The one who lights my flame
So when I'm feelin' sad

So when my fate looks very, very bad
Pay the ransom
I got the dinosaurs mad
I got the dinosaurs mad

Don't Keep Your Heart From Me lyrics - Corey Hart

I see you and I know you
Complex and so disturbed
I want you and I lust for you
Hits me in the night

I thought that I would never fall for someone like you
Oh I thought that maybe I could stay detached
And still have you
No way...

Don't keep your heart from me
Don't keep it now
Don't keep your heart from me
Don't keep it now

Restrictions, convictions
Are imposed with careless ease
My comings, my goings
Dictated when you please

You thought that I would enjoy myself by throwin' the dice
Oh you thought that it would be nice to have me walk on your thin ice
No way...

Don't keep your heart from me
Don't keep it now
Don't keep your heart from me
Don't keep it now

I thought that I would never fall for someone like you
Oh I thought that maybe I could stay detached and still have you
No way...

Don't keep your heart from me
Don't keep it now
Don't keep your heart from me
Don't keep it now

Sayin'
Don't keep your heart from me
Don't keep it now
Don't keep your heart from me
Don't keep it now

Don't keep your heart from me
