He's in the mood to touch the fire 
He's in the mood to touch everything you are 
Jacky's locked in a silent dream 
He's watching movies on the tv screen 
He feels unsteady, lights a cigarette 
He's getting mellow in his cabinet 
Oh, jacky, when everything goes wrong 
Get ready, for you've got to be, you've got to be so strong 
It's so supersensual, sentimental 
Forget about your deepest fears 
Switch back to the golden years 
You've got to touch the fire, wake up little boy 
You've got to play the fire 
Jacky's spying, is it her or not 
His eyes are burning cause the brain's too hot 
He sitting calmly on his swivel chair 
There's something coming from the upper stairs 
Now listen to me, jacky 
You were always so lonesome in that quiet lonely house 
High on a hill 
Now come... come and meet me 
You know where 
And we take a nice and easy holiday 
Back in the old, old days of happiness 
Oh jacky.... 
Switch back to the golden years 
    
  
 INSIDE OUT 
Lyrics: Gold/music: Gold-Lloyd-Echolette

Your hand full of hours - sand from the urns 
A travelling companion - the secret of ferns 
From darkness to darkness - where shall I begin 
When whiteness attacked us - sewn under our skin 
And there were the stars that helped to navigate our souls 
With all my love - I went into the world 
From inside out - and I gave it all to you 
But I need your love - that was looking for me 
Just on my lips look for your kiss 
And always I think where we might have gone 
If we'd never met inside this song 
Our names are enciphered - but the words became true 
When I was the sun and you, you were the moon 
And there were the stars that helped to navigate our souls 
      
      
INTO THE DARK 
Lyrics: Gold/music: Gold-Lloyd-Mertens

Long view into the dark 
Moving your finger 
You gonna make it for sure into the dark 
Master of duel, rendezvoyeur 
This is a walk into the dark 
Playing the ball 
Roll it on but not too fast 
There she goes into the light 
Close to your eye 
Breaking the mirror 
Gone out of sight 
Flash in the rain 
Sign of a walk into the dark..  
      
      
IRON GATE/Instrumental 
Music: Gold

IRON JOHN 
Lyrics: Gold-Rudy Nielson/music: Lloyd-Gold-Echolette
 
If you open up the cage 
You will hurt yourself 
The king said it's forbidden 
Or you may get hell 
But the prisoner lets you know 
Where to find the key 
Under her satin pillow 
Yes, there it has to be 
Modesty is fine but it doesn't take you very far 
When you make your decision 
Don't be afraid of the dark 
Longing for the golden ball 
That it will be yours for keeps 
Be sure about it as you saw 
So shall you reap 
Lets take a ride on iron john's shoulders 
He has more gold than anybody in this world 
Lets tak a ride, hey-ho on iron john 
He has more gold 
Than anybody in this world 
Jump on the train to nowhere 
From now on you are free 
After rising from the ashes 
You'll become a mystery 
Too many of those strange injections, 
Too many gazes at the sun 
The lady says, well that's the business, 
Running after no.1 
For all their childish daydreams 
You caught their falling stars 
Just for the cheapest contracts 
You signed your autograph 
And if you started much too early, 
Therefore you stopped too late 
Make sure no one can stop you now, 
Here comes the ultimate 
He will be with you, he will be there 
When you call out the magic words.. 
      
      
IVORY TOWER
Lyrics: Gold-Lloyd-Echolette/music: Bloss-Gold-Lloyd-Echo.
 
Here is the news 
From my little hideaway 
My sweet ivory tower 
I've sent you songs about so many things 
Mighty moondogs skipping waves 
Dolphins playing their lives away 
Golden circus girls and pharaohs 
Fallen angels, streetside romeos 
Patricia's park and anyway 
Eternal youth and neverending summerdays 
Lonely girls, music halls, the mysteries of love 
In the event 
That I don't return 
Please take this message to understand 
In the event... 
I am a stranger 
In a strange land 
Welcome stranger, to the land of the free 
Welcome, carol, to fantasy 
Oh my god, I feel so alone 
A million light years far from home 
It seems to be a tragedy 
How can I live in germany 
Another house is burning down 
It's time to face the cruel reality 
This is a game no more 
Desasters in the twentieth century 
In the event that I don't return 
Please, take this message to understand 
In the event
