An Evening at Trasimeno Lake
1. WRONG WOMAN
ANA POPOVIC (ASCAP)
what makes you think you're too good for one woman and good enough for two
what makes you thing she should be wasting her very precious time on you
it doesn't take a lot to be unfaithful but it does to know how to treat
your woman good
what your boys do really don't matter cause it's still no excuse for you
You're a ladies man
You're a ladies man
and I think you've got way better things to do in your free time back home
and last night while you're out there making out you're woman was home
alone
it doesn't take a lot to flirt and cheat every other crook knows just how
to
but it does to be faithful and worth all the trust that she has in you
I hear you're a ladies man
yeah you're a ladies man
you're messing with a wrong wrong woman
messing with the wrong wrong woman
you're checking out the wrong wrong woman
you hold her hand but got your eyes all over me
I see you play it cool in your alibi cocoon
just another 'I'm married but not blind' won't do
jet another call in late
might be a twist of faith
nice try..
I wouldn't let it get too far, if I were you
you're messing with a wrong woman
you're checking out the wrong wrong woman

4. IS THIS EVERYTHING THERE IS?
ANA POPOVIC (ASCAP), MARK VAN MEURS (BUMA)
In front of the mirror
Again and again
The same lonely man is staring at him
After tonight
And for the rest of his life
Never alone
Reflection
Where would she go?
Who would she call?
A same lonely choice
Is waiting for her
Another night
Won’t find me alone
Longing for your
Affection
Is this everything there is?
Is this everything
Am I living it right?
Is this everything
Is this everything there is, is this everything
They’re in need of love
But short of words
And still they sit alone
So close but like
Miles away
The world knows a new
Attraction
Who’s about to make a move?
Tonight…
She can’t keep her eyes
Away from him
She’s waiting ’till closing time
Not her
Direction
3. HOW'D YOU LEARN TO SHAKE IT LIKE THAT?
JAMES EDWARD PRYOR (CONRAD MUSIC)
4. SHADOW AFTER DARK
ANA POPOVIC (ASCAP)
What hope for a generation?
Grown up behind the bars
What can history teach us?
When it’s covered with scars
We learn to swim
But we’re swimming with sharks
Time is hard, you better
Trust no shadow after dark
They’ll imprison your soul
Imprison your mind
Cause today you learn to kill
Tomorrow to be kind
They sure know how to bite
Without leaving a mark
Time is hard, you better
Trust no shadow after dark
Small hopes to resist my friend
We've already marked
Do what you got to do just to try
Small hopes to resist
The only left reason to live
is a reason to survive
Small hopes to resist, my friend
We’re already marked
You watch them burn it all in flames
Once just a spark
You watch them build a graveyard
Out of a park
Time is hard, you better
Trust no shadow after dark
5. LIVES THAT DON'T EXIST
ANA POPOVIC (ASCAP) / MARK VAN MEURS (BUMA)
How do you deal with attention?
How do you deal with fame?
When spot-lights keep you
unamused just the same
how do you learn the rules
of a game you can't resist?
Sweet sweet unbearable
Lives that don't exist
Make you or brake you
Like they even care
Wanna be out in 10 seconds
try: playing it fair
Full color front page photo
who'll refuse to stare
Blame it on a gossip channel
Wishing you were there
saying: Lives that don't exist
Make the most of it now
rocks are only fair
up & close, cribs and rides
let the people stare
Hey look at you now
in your Gucci stun
your illuminated privacy
guarded with the gun
Lives that don't exist
If you wanna know the price
of an unpredictable life
being daily spotted, filmed and traced
cuts you like a knife
Full color front page photo
who'll refuse to stare
Blame it on a gossip channel
Wishing you were there
Sayin' Lives that don't exist
6. LET ME LOVE YOU BABE
xxxx
7. DOUBT EVERYONE BUT ME
ANA POPOVIC (ASCAP)
Some say that I want
Other kind of love
That you’ll abandon
Your faith in me
And worthy your trust
I won’t ever be
Baby doubt
Everyone but me
Some say I won’t ever
Learn to know you good
Some say I can’t even
Know the way you feel
Some say that I won’t
Love you right
Oh baby Doubt
Everyone but me
Baby did it ever cross your mind
To doubt what they believe
Did it ever cross your mind
You’re the one for me
Some say we were never
Really meant to be
And we’ll become the prisoners
Before we make each other free
Some say we
Don’t know how to love
Doubt everyone
Everyone but me
8. BLIND FOR LOVE
ANA POPOVIC (ASCAP)
I know it's not that easy
but try to understand
you don't make me a better woman no
I can't make you a better man
and who am I to claim you
although I truly care
we take each other for granted yeah
we're blind for love
I know we're after something
to make us carry on
if I should be the one to tell you
we're blind for love
I guess it's true
that I
don't bring out the best in you
and everybody knows the secret
everybody knows the truth
everybody knows the answer
better than
we do
9. GET BACK HOME TO YOU
ANA POPOVIC (ASCAP)
I'm never ready to leave
like I'm wanting to
I can't make it to the door
without running back to you
just one more time
before I'm gone
I'm already missing you
I got a day full of promises
I just wanna get back home to you
Everybody's in the rush
trying to get from A to B
live up to the expectations of
highly demanding society
here I am
trying to make it
no place I rather be
everybody wanna slow me down I just wanna
get back home to you
I can't stop now/ Get back home to you
I'm on my way/ Get back home to you
Hear the drums starts the beat
laying it down on me
if my mind's with someone
I know who's that gonna be
the night is hot
and the lights are down
rhythm is gonna make me move
so many places to be out there
but I just wanna
get back home to you
10. LOVE FEVER
xxxx
11. HOLD ON
ANA POPOVIC (ASCAP) MARK VAN MEURS (BUMA)
The place I was raised was poisoned
Power in dangerous hands
Life long toll is our price
Exclusion as inheritance
Entering the embassy
Caught up forever by damn red tapes
Sent away, not accepted
I’m not from the United States
Priorities and privileges
Are given arbitrarily
Others, like me, are
Damned to be the enemy
Getting out the airplane
Waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting in a cue
I’m the one they take aside
I’m not from the EU
I saw mosques and monasteries
Burning down in flame
The preachers of the western god say
It’s me who takes the blame
I heard politicians screaming
For what I have to stand
My election days are over
We’ve got to make a stand
Easy to crucify Hard to unify Hold on...
Priorities and privileges
Are given arbitrarily
Others, like me, are
Damned to be the enemy
Easy to crucify Hard to unify Hold on...
