During three years I was expected the new Laura Branigan album; I dreamt of a new and refreshing Laura Branigan concept but the 1990 album even doesn't get a name. I still remember the "Moonlight on water" video clip, where Laura appears in a sexy yellow dress and a sad song that I could never forget "Never in a million years". This is a good try, Laura Branigan got credits on production and you can find new sounds for instance in "Let me in", but she still is falling down with sales.
(1990)

Moonlight On Water

What's going on Down on the planet
What's going on Inside your pretty head
What's life without a Mercedes
And the need to feel adrenaline rush

Is it better than Moonlight on water
Is it better than Sex on the beach
Think about us riding wild horses
Think about us it's not out of reach

I'm here for you
No matter where you go
No matter what you do
I'm here for you
When there's a lonely night
who can you hold on to
I'm here for you
Want you in my arms uncomplicated
I am for you I am

Who's gonna be The competition
Who's the next in line For promotion baby
Everyday the real world is fading
Spinning out on the wheel of fortune but
Is it better than Moonlight on water
Is it better than Sex on the beach
Think about us riding wild horses
Think about us it's not out of reach babe

I'm here for you
No matter where you go
No matter what you do
I'm here for you
When there's a lonely night
who can you hold on to
I'm here for you
Want you in my arms uncomplicated
I am for you I am

You've been working so hard,
don't you know it baby
You don't understand
what I want from you
Instead of dreamin
'bout all that money
We got mich simpler things to do

Like Moonlight on water
Like Sex on the beach
Think about us riding wild horses
Think about us It's not out of reach babe

I'm here for you
No matter where you go
No matter what you do
I'm here for you
When there's a lonely night
who can you hold on to
I'm here for you
Want you in my arms uncomplicated

I am for you I am
But don't you worry 'bout the wrong things
I am for you I am
Sex on the beach babe
Moonlight on water
Sex on Sex on the beach babe
Moonlight on water
Oh out of reach babe
Oh Sex on the beach

Bad Attitude

Drawn like a moth to a flame
I've been comsumed by the fire
I've only got myself to blame
I soulda known better
Than givin to desire
And with an arrow through my heart
I watch your image fall apart
True colors blinding me
I don't like what I see

You know you got a bad attitude
I wanna love you but you're dumb animal
Raw like diamond in the rough
I think you're pretty but you're too tough

You see the glass half empty
I see the glasse half filled
You try to tell me it's alright
You say you're gonna change you're ways
OOh baby you know you never will

You know you got a bad attitude
I wanna love you but you're dumb animal
Raw like diamond in the rough
I think you're pretty but you're too tough
I don't need your bad attitude
It's hard to love you when you're too wild animal
Raw like the diamond in the rough
I've had my fill babe enough is enough

And with an arrow through my heart
I watch your image fall apart
True colors bliding me
I'm not impressed with what I see

Get out of here with you bad attitude
I wanna love you but you're too wild animal
Raw you're like a diamond in the rough
I've had my fill babe enough is enough

I don't need your bad attitude
It's hard to love you when you're too wild animal
Raw like a diamond in the rough
You could be pretty but you're too tough

Never in a million years

Oh, if I could touch you
It'd be a once in a lifetime dream come true
And oh, if I could have you
just one night, just one time
But I know I'll never get the chance
I'll never get a second glance

Never in a million years
Never in a thousand tears
If I could ever hold you
I'd never let go
Never in a million years

How I need you
If you could only see inside my heart
And oh, to be near you
close enough, to reach and touch
well I've thought it over in my mind
If I could walk across the bridge of time

Never in a million years
Never in a thousand tears
If I could ever hold you
I'd never let go
Never in a million years

But I know
I'll never, never, never get the chance
I'll never get a second glance
Never, in a million years
never in a thousand tears
If I could ever hold you
I'd never let you go, never

Never in a million years
Never in a thousand tears
If I could ever hold you
I'd never let go
Never in a million years

Never in a thousand tears
If I could ever hold you
I'd never let go
Never in a million years

Smoke Screen

I confess I love you
But you don't believe me
You're on the rebound
And you don't want to get hurt again
I know you're fallin
but you don't want to let me know
You think it's safer not to let it show

You got your fellings
locked away for your protection
You think you keep them inside
Oh! It's so obvious
there's something here that can't be denied

You're building up a smoke screen
Trying to keep me in the dark
Trying to camouflage the way you feel
You're sending out a smoke screen
Acting like you're not in love
Making out it's no big deal
I know it - you know it
What are you afraid of

You're keeping a distance
For the sake of appearances
Don't want to look like
You are ruled by your emotions
Surrender to your heart
Lift the veil that's keeping us apart

You're building up a smoke screen
Trying to keep me in the dark
Trying to camouflage the way you feel
You're sending out a smoke screen
Acting like you're not in love
Making out it's no big deal

(I know it - you know it)
Say the words you need to say
(I know it - you know it)
Blow the smoke away
(I know it - you know it)
Step out from behind the cloud
I know you love me just say it out loud

You got your fellings
locked away for your protection
You think you keep them inside
Oh! It's so obvious
there's something here that can't be denied

You're building up a smoke screen
Trying to keep me in the dark
Trying to camouflage the way you feel
You're sending out a smoke screen
Acting like you're not in love
Making out it's no big deal

You're building up a smoke screen
Trying to keep me in the dark
Trying to camouflage the way you feel
You're sending out a smoke screen
Acting like you're not in love
You say
it, say it, say it, say it

I know you- you love me
I know you- you want me
I know you- you love me
I know you- you want me

Let Me In

Driving through the city
As I look through the window

Wonderin what it's like
to be sleepin on the outside
Watch me take a picture
of the place that I grew up in
Sorry mister,
thought you look like someone I remember
Someone I remember

Look at him still walking
Like he knows somebody's watching
If I try to talk to him
I wonder if he'll know me
C'mon say "Hey baby"
won't you take a ride in my car
Maybe you can show me
how we lost what we believe in

Just let me stay here
I'm running from I don't know
Just let me stay here the night
I won't hurt you
Don't stop me
Just let me stay a while
Just let me stay here for life

I know it's been a while
and the years have been unfaithful
Is there nothing left of me
that even looks familiar
Everything that was easy
when we thought we had the answer
Why you lookin' at me like
I'm from another planet

Just let me stay here
I'm running from I don't know
Just let me stay here the night
I won't hurt you
Don't stop me
Just let me stay a while
Just let me stay here for life

Oooo eee oh
My lo say no
May you can let me in
Oooo eee oh
My lo say no
May you can let me in

Turn The Beat Around

Blow horns, you sure sound pretty!
Your bottom lips keep moving
to the nitty gritty
But when you hear the scratch
of the guitars scratching
Then you know that rhythm carries all the action

Turn the beat around
Love to hear percussion
Turn it upside down
Love to hear percussion
Love to hear it

Flute player play your flute cause
I know you want to get jumping off
But you see
I've made up my mind about it
It's got to be the rhythm no doubt about it, Oh
And when the guitar player starts
playing with the syncopated rhythm
With the scratch, scratch, scratch
Makes you wanna move your body yeah yeah yeah! And when the drummer starts beating that beat, Beating that beat with the syncopated rhythm
With the rat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat of the drum

Turn the beat around
Turn it upside down, Oh, Yeah

Unison

Somewhere tonight we come alive
Two hearts at night we're one of a kind
Here we are undivided by
anything Just you and I
We've come so far
no one else could ever
Steal away what we confide
Who wants to know?

We stick together we're never apart
Everybody knows who we are
Because we are one
we do it in unison

The look in your eye, flash of a smile
Never too shy playin' ever so wild
Baby here we are I'm lying on
no one else But you and I
We've come so far
No one else could ever
steal away what we confide
who wants to know?

We stick together we're never apart
Everybody knows who we are
Because we are one
we do it in unison
We come together and stronger we are
Just when the world can tear us apart
We go on as one we do it in unison

No Promise, No Guarantee

You know we've all been hurt before
And it's so hard to trust again
We wanna believe in that security
Someone there til the end
It's time you know the way I feel
Yow know I've had my share of pain
What we have is now, we chance it anyhow
And hope the feeling stays the same

No Promise, No Guarantee
But here's my heart unconditionally
I'll give to you my honesty, always darling
No Promise, No Guarantee
But I'll share my world with you openly
Stand by you faithfully
I'll be there darling

Oh those memories fade with time
And we soon forget the tears
You've survived the hurt
you made it through the worst
What I'm saying is sincere

No Promise, No Guarantee
But here's my heart unconditionally
I'll give to you my honesty, always darling
No Promise, No Guarantee
But I'll share my world with you openly
Stand by you faithfully
I'll be there darling


Now it's a changing world out there
Don't we know it baby
And it's turning way too fast

I'll be by your side
be it day or night
And what will be will be, oh

No Promise, No Guarantee
But here's my heart unconditionally
I'll give to you my honesty, always darling
No Promise, No Guarantee
But I'll share my world with you openly
Stand by you faithfully

Reverse Psychology

All the girls are running after you
And I've got to admit that it includes me too
All the girls are putting on a show
We all try to catch your eye
But you don't want to know

I've got to be smart
Really got to use my head
I'm gonna pretend
I'm not interested

I got a secret weapon
I'm running away to make you fall in love with me
I can create the illusion
I'll turn you around with Reverse Psychology
Chase me till I catch you, chase me till I catch you

It really gets you when you are ignored
So I'll make myself a territory unexplored
Now it's my turn to play hard to get
If you try to phone I won't be home
So you don't suspect

I got a secret weapon
I'm running away to make you fall in love with me
I can create the illusion
I'll turn you around with Reverse Psychology

My hearts telling me what to do
Let you chase me till I catch
you, oaaooo

I've got to be smart
Really got to use my head
I'm gonna pretend
I'm not interested

I got a secret weapon
I'm running away to make you fall in love with me
I can create the illusion
I'll turn you around with Reverse Psychology

The Best Was Yet To Come

Just a small town girl in the city lights
The best was yet to come
Then lonely days turned to endless nights
The best was yet to come

How were you to know
That you would be the lucky one
Ain't it funny how time flies
When the best is yet to come

You can cry yourself to sleep at night
You can't change the things you've done
You had it there then it slipped away, oh
You left the song unsung

Even through your tears
I never saw you come undone, no
What's so good about goodbye
When the best was yet to come

I find myself thinkin' about yesterday
When you were here and livin' in a dream
In the moment that it takes
You find you made your first mistake
Like the setting sun... You turn around it's gone

Just a small town girl who had it made
Or so the story goes
She had it there then it slipped away
Oh, how was she to know

Even through her tears
I never saw her come undone, no
Ain't it funny how time flies
When the best is yet to come, oh, eh
What's so good about goodbye
When the best was yet to come
