INXS - The Greatest Hits


 


Heaven Sent

Your eyes are like deep wells of desire
Once in your arms I'm on fire
You were sent girl so perfectly true
Changing my life
Now I'm a survivor
Heaven sent
That's what I call you

Late at night when the evening fire has died

There's a look in your eye

Seductive images fly

One day you'll see what angels can see

Dressed in black if she comes back

I think I'll lose my mind

Tuesday she works

In the library uptown

Some useful knowledge

Can always be found

Don't burn the library

Til you've read all the books

Sometimes in life

You get a second look


Communication

Light beams from outer space

Drifting to your satellite

Your dish responds

Communication disinformation

So entertaining

Blood money blood money

It's wild in here

There's a girl on the floor

She's gonna blow this place apart

Gonna take us all

All away

Communication disinformation

So entertaining

Blood money blood money

It's wild out here

You should see the light

From the crown of the king

The king of the night

Spinning metal blue satellite

Your dish responds

Communication disinformation

So entertaining

Blood money blood money

It's wild out here

Situation's alright

Gonna keep up the lies

And our version of life

I won't leave this dirty place

I'll stay here 'til the end

The lights are on

So action man

Show us the truth

Communication disinformation

So entertaining

Blood money blood money

There's a war out here

There's a bomb on the floor

Gonna blow this place apart

Gonna take this show away


Taste It

Yes it's me
I am the one
To make you see
Where we belong
I was shaking
Like a leaf
All wrapped up
In my dirty sheets
If I agree
To what comes next
I would be faking
With the best of them

It seems a crime
I would commit
Without the difference
Of all the world's gifts

Sweet sweet sweet
Could you taste it
Never never never
Never never never
Taste it

To dream
All the time
Without a scream
In the dead of night
All those faces
Come back to me
I'll be begging
To swim that sea
Yes I made
A picture story
Make you cry
In all your glory
A need to quench
The thirst of many
To justify
And make ready

Sweet sweet sweet
Could you taste it

This realization
Owes us strength to show
If you're uncertain
You're invited to believe
These are the words I speak
These are the words I speak

A dislocation
From where we once came from
Give sons and daughters
Because we want to go on
These are the words she speaks
These are the words she speaks

Sweet sweet sweet
Could you taste it


Baby Don't Cry


Baby don't cry
When you're down and confused
Nothing seems right
And it's you who decides
Who's going to make it right
Well life ain't no joke
But it's good when you smile
Steal everything
But you won't get far
Sometimes you will fall
Whatcha gonna do
Give your friend a call
We know that you can smile
Even though it takes a while
To lose your fears and say
Gonna lose your fears and say
Do you know who you are
And where you're going to
Don't you know that love
Gonna pull you
Gonna pull you through baby


Beautiful Girl

Nicky's in the corner
With a black coat on
Running from a bad home
With some cat inside
Now where did you find her
Among the neon lights
That haunt the streets outside
She says
Stay with me
Beautiful girl
Stay with me
Beautiful girl
Stay with me
She wants to go home
From doorway to doorway
Street corner to corner
With the neon ghosts in the city
And she says
She's so scared
So very frightened
Anything could happen
Right here tonight
