INDIO

I got the album for free at a give away in a department store back in Solo years ago (I got it along with GN'R's Use Your Illision1, Nirvana's Nevermind, and The Best of Kenny G -pretty mixed up, eh?). Gentleman Style was a radio hit then, and I was pretty happy that they came to Indonesia a couple of times (I remember New Kids On The Block was here too at the same time as they promoted Indio - bad timing). I didn't go to their mini-concert, I hadn't moved to Jakarta then. My top-three songs are Kiss Me, Whispers In The Dark (I like this version better that the acoustic one in Relativity), and Living In A Fishbowl..... Lately I found out that there was a different release of the album with different cover (mine is brown and the other one's blue). I first thought it was a single, but it wasn't. Anyway, I didn't buy that album due to the small amount of money I had then.


Rebel With A Cause

(Wolf/Wolf/Szumowski/Sims/Coyne)

Take a walk sweet city girl
With your hair and dreams in curls
Take a better look, oh oh
Look into my crystal ball
See your magic castle fall
Into open hands

All cried out
I'll save you from the guns
This time out
I'll change the way the water runs

Since I met you I'm a rebel with a cause
I'll prove to you
There's a better world somewhere out there
Since I met you
I'm a rebel with a cause
A rebel with a cause

Tired of the high-speed chase
Let down by the human race
I wanna shelter you oh oh
Feel my anger growing cold
We'll never see our dreams get old
If we let it side


Soft and pale
Breathing causes pain
All words fail
Anger's falling with the rain

Since I met you I'm a rebel with a cause
I'll prove to you
There's a better world somewhere out there
Since I met you
I'm a rebel with a cause
A rebel with a cause
A rebel with a cause

Scars may hurt and scars may heal
Your neighbour makes you hard as steel
And no one gives a damn just how you feel
Oh oh

Since I met you I'm a rebel with a cause
I'll prove to you
There's a better world somewhere out there
Since I met you
I'm a rebel with a cause
A rebel with a cause

Since I met you I'm a rebel with a cause
I'll prove to you
There's a better world somewhere out there
Since I met you
I'm a rebel with a cause

A rebel with a cause

A rebel with a cause

A rebel with a cause

Oh oh


Kiss Me

(Wolf/Wolf/Szumowski/Sims/Coyne)

X-cuse me for starring, your look have me blinded
You want to touch me, so don't try to fight it
And kiss me

I'd walk your sweet curves for days without water
My drink is your lips don't you think you outta
Just kiss me

Blond and ambitious you're dancing with wild boys
Melting the ice round my heart girl with your voice


Strawberry lips saying, Baby I want you
Raising my fever tonight so why don't you
Just kiss me, oh oh oh, kiss me

This conversation is making me nervous
Please pay attention, imagine we're lovers
And kiss me

You turn me on, turn me off like a flashlight
Feel like a blind man who's taking the night flight
So kiss me

Strawberry lips saying, Baby I want you
Raising my fever tonight so why don't you
Just kiss me, oh oh oh, kiss me

Strawberry lips call my name so inviting
Can't think of anything else more exciting
So kiss me oh oh oh kiss me

Nanananananana

Nanananananana

Nanananananana

Dressed to the teeth in your soft skin and perfume
Only my heart cuts the silence in your room


Strawberry lips saying, Baby I want you
Raising my fever tonight so why don't you
Just kiss me, oh oh oh, kiss me

Strawberry lips are my favourite flavour
Drinking their colour is all that I made for
So kiss me oh oh oh

Kiss me oh oh oh

Kiss me oh oh oh

Strawberry lips call my name so inviting
Can't think of anything else more exciting
So kiss me oh oh oh kiss me


Maybe You

(Wolf/Wolf/Dixon/Szumowski/Sims/Coyne)

Maybe you
Say the red roses blue
Maybe you
Don't feel the heat like I do

Are you sad over good times gone bad
Do you dream at night
Of things you never had
Bruises that hurt me
Maybe feel good to you
Tell me how will I know in time
If I touch what's taboo

Maybe you
Take the old for the new

You see it your way and I'll see it mine
I wanna walk in your shoes for a day
You do it your way and I'll do it mine
And either way is fine
So let's have a good time

Me and you
Share a whole different view
Maybe you
Believe the good will come through, yah

Do you know I am a friend of a foe
Only time, only time will show
Words that excite me are leaving me cold
There's a whole world that's new to you
But to these eyes it's old
Hold on tight, life's a turbulent flight

You see it your way and I'll see it mine
I wanna walk in your shoes for a day
You do it your way and I'll do it mine
And either way is fine
So let's have a good time


You see it your way and I'll see it mine
I wanna walk in your shoes for a day
You do it your way and I'll do it mine
And either way is fine
So let's have a good time

Maybe you
Love when the sun eats the moon
Maybe you
Don't feel the heat like I do

Ooh ya, maybe I
I let the best ones go by
Maybe I
Will never know just why

You see it your way and I'll see it mine
I wanna walk in your shoes for a day
You do it your way and I'll do it mine
And either way is fine
So let's have a good time

You see it your way and I'll see it mine
I wanna walk in your shoes for a day
You do it your way and I'll do it mine
And either way is fine
So let's have a good time

I wanna walk in your shoes for a day

I wanna walk in your shoes for a day

I wanna walk in your shoes for a day


Indio

(Wolf/Wolf/Dixon/Szumowski/Sims/Coyne)

I go back in time
Some dreams should be left alone
Like sunken treasures

I called her, Indio, Indio

Waves of passion calling her name
Velvet kisses feeding the flame
No one in the world comes close to you

Body sweat was melting the ice
Jungle-gods were rolling the dice
No one in the world comes to you
No one in the world comes close to you

I said no one in the world comes close to you babe

Living for the moment
Falling just like angels do
Playing with the fire
That would burn me for life
Time locked in my suitcase
Brushing in tomorrow's eyes
Touching the forbidden
Now it cuts like a knife

I called her
Indio, oh baby, Indio
No one else comes close to you
Indio, oh baby, Indio
Dreams of sand and ocean blue
There's no getting over you

Eyes like pools and golden her skin
She said I take you where no man's ever been
Knockin' on the door to paradise
Island breezes caught in her hair
Was smell of love and rain in the air
Knockin' on the door to paradise, paradise

I was knocking on the door to paradise

Love under covers
Looked on by a jealous moon
Takin' every shortcut
That leads to your heart
Back into my world
Looking for a cure from you
Even our memories are seven seas apart

I called her
Indio, oh baby, Indio
No one else comes close to you
Indio, oh baby, Indio
Dreams of sand and ocean blue
There's no getting over you

I called her Indio, Indio
I called her Indio, Indio, Indio
I called her Indio, Indio
I called her Indio, Indio, Indio

I said

Indio, oh baby, Indio
No one else comes close to you
Indio, oh baby, Indio
Dreams of sand and ocean blue
There's no getting over you
Indio, oh baby, Indio, oh girl
No one else comes close to you

Indio, oh baby, Indio
Dreams of sands and ocean blue
There's no getting' over you
Oh baby, Indio, Indio

I called her
Indio, oh baby, Indio


Gentleman Style

(Wolf/Wolf/Dixon/Szumowski)

Soft and white like virgin snow
She's calmly watch my desire grow
The moon is full, wearing a dirty smile
And I cover her body gentleman style

Her fragile cobweb, surrounds my heart
There's no escapin' till death do us part
My blood is calling, I wait a while
And I grant all her wishes, gentleman style

She's poison and angel
She's fire and rain
Here I go, I'm falling again
Watch my heart comes to life
In the light of her smile
While it's silently breaking gentleman style, gentleman style
While it silently breaking, gentleman style

Temptations wearing a crimson dress
She talks of heaven in her sweet caress
My heart won't make it another mile
And I touch her in places, gentleman style

The winds are flirting in open skies
I taste her laughter, I taste her lies
A change of heart will take a while
So for now I love her, gentleman style

She's poison and angel
She's fire and rain
Here I go, I'm falling again
Watch my heart comes to life
In the light of her smile
While it's silently breaking gentleman style, gentleman style
While it silently breaking, gentleman style, gentleman style

Cold blue sweat on dessert soil
Love is watching a good thing spoil
Emotions in bondage it ain't worthwhile
And I walk out of her life, gentleman style
Out of her life gentleman style

She's poison and angel
She's fire and rain
Here I go, I'm falling again
Watch my heart comes to life
In the light of her smile
While it's silently breaking gentleman style, gentleman style
While it silently breaking, gentleman style


Hunger

(Wolf/Wolf/Dixon/Szumowski/Sims/Coyne)

Hunger
Hunger for the meaning
Hunger
Got one thing in mind
Burning, hunger
Satisfaction is deceiving
Hunger
A fever inside

I've been watching you
Spy across my border
Something's telling me you're hunted prey
Forty thousand miles
West of my decisions
I know your river will soon flow my way

Primal screams
Mocking the wise man
Ancient dreams
Coming to life

I've got hunger
Hunger for the meaning
Hunger
Got one thing in mind

Burning, hunger
Satisfaction is deceiving
Hunger
A fever inside
A fever inside

Don't provoke it girl
You'll burn in friendly fire
Cross the sacred line
And tears will fall

I'm a prisoner
Of my own desire
In your photograph
I see it all

Touch it, feel it
And embrace it
Taste it
Never ever
Let it rule you
Fool you, fool you

Call the preacher
To my pity
Drown the fever
With the lovin you hide

Wake up your brother
Get out of the light
They chant evil
Make this people stop

Primal screams
Mocking the wise man
Ancient dreams
Coming to life
Instinct rules
Rules since creation
Shun the fools
Who trust in the mind

I've got hunger
Hunger for the meaning
Hunger
Got one thing in mind
Burning, hunger
Satisfaction is deceiving

Hunger
A fever inside
Hunger
A fever inside

Hunger
I've got hunger
Hunger for the meaning
Hunger
Got one thing in mind

Burning, hunger
Satisfaction is deceiving
Hunger
A fever inside
A fever inside


Cry For Freedom

(Wolf/Wolf/Dixon/Szumowski/Sims/Coyne)

They carry torches for their hopes and dreams
This world is colder than it seems, yeh yeh yeh
Judged by the church they pray in
Or by the colour of their skin
When will they find out it's time to shout

Oh oh oh cry for freedom
Is it ever getting' any better
Oh oh oh draw the line
Oh oh oh cry for freedom
Is it ever getting' any better
Oh oh oh change takes time
Oh it's gonna take some time

Everywhere she goes they follow close, too close
Mother looks away, but her heart knows
His flesh and blood, his prize possession
How can she stop his sad obsession
Little girl, you know it's time to shout

Oh oh oh cry for freedom
Is it ever getting' any better
Oh oh oh draw the line
Oh oh oh cry for freedom
Is it ever getting' any better
Oh oh oh change takes time

Watch the man who talks the loudest of them all
He will take the biggest fall
Don't miss the signs, when hearts are bleeding
An empty smile can be deceiving
When will they find out it's time to shout

Oh oh oh cry for freedom
Is it ever getting' any better
Oh oh oh draw the line
Oh oh oh cry for freedom
Is it ever getting' any better
Oh oh oh change takes time

Oh oh oh cry for freedom
Oh oh oh cry for freedom
Is it ever getting' any better
Oh oh oh change takes time

Nanananananana

Is it getting' any better


One-woman Man

(Neigher/Dixon/Szumowski)

Do you take me for a fool
Run rings over my heart
Got me so confused
Is he already gone?

Are we just getting' started?
Call up friends when I'm leavin'
Tell them I'm out of town
Wanna lose your mind

Is it already gone?
Or temporarily departed?
I call you up when not soul's around
I take you places where we can't be found
You're playing games
I'm tired of keeping score

I'm a one-woman man
Know just what I want
I'd lay down my life
To make you my own

I'm a one-woman man
Stay right by your side
Just take hold my hand
Got to make you mine

You are only human too
Regret what you've done
Scar but never bruise
But when you're so far away

Nobody's gonna make you chose
We shred our skin
You loose that evening gown
We taste the sweat in one another's mouth
In too deep
Impossible to turn back now

I'm a one-woman man
Know just what I want
I'd lay down my life
To make you my own

I'm a one-woman man
Stay right by your side
Just take hold my hand
Got to make you mine

Betrayed a man who you married
Now you're all mixed up
Ooh ooh ooh
I'm tailor made custom coated in love
So come on baby I'm your man

I'm a one-woman man
Know just what I want
I'd lay down my life
To make you my own

I'm a one-woman man
Stay right by your side
Just take hold my hand
Got to make you mine


Living In A Fishbowl

(Wolf/Wolf/Dixon/Szumowski/Sims/Coyne)

She likes to listen louder to her music
Than the guy next door
She likes to wear her hair like
No one else before

Walk with me down the street and you will see, oh oh
Just how good it feels
The moment I step out, I'm the centre of the crowd
I'm the king of talk
And I wear it proud
Girl, they wipe me off of my feet

Feels like living in a fishbowl, Baby
Living in a fishbowl, Baby
Oh why forbidden pleasures taste so sweet
Feels like livin' in a fishbowl, Baby
Oh oh

Playin' in a corner on the dance floor
I'm all over you
No one melts my wires, girl
The way you do
Voices fade, I forgot about the world, oh oh
No one else is there

Suddenly I hear whispers in the air
As I turn around
People stop and stare
Girl you wipe me off of my feet

Feels like living in a fishbowl, Baby
Living in a fishbowl, Baby
Oh why forbidden pleasures taste so sweet
Feels like livin' in a fishbowl, Baby

When you're alone I'm with you inside
Stairways to doors hide your face behind
Night and day my life is on display

Suddenly I hear whispers in the air
I turn around
People stop and stare
I don't care, no oh oh
I don't care, oh oh

Feels like living in a fishbowl, Baby
Living in a fishbowl, Baby
Oh why, girl you wipe me off of my feet
Feels like living in a fishbowl, Baby
Living in a fishbowl, Baby
Oh why forbidden pleasures taste so sweet

Feels like livin' in a fishbowl, Baby
Oh oh, girl they wipe me off of my feet
Living in a fishbowl, Baby
Living in a fishbowl


Whispers In The Dark

(Wolf/Wolf/Dixon/Szumowski)

Crying on your mother's pillow
Crying cause of something that you saw
Lie awake alone in your room
Too scared to even look behind your door
But when you're young
Your eyes are oh so sure
All you see is real, not in your mind
You know at night the candle blows


Whispers in the dark
Everyone hears
Something 'bout the dark
It makes us listen to our fears
Whispers in the dark
They call your name
You can't escape the dark
When light just dwindles like a flame


Paint a face on your desire
Paint a picturesque view of your heart
Take a slice of all the answer
The riddle ends where all your daydream start
'Cause if you look you'd see the whole world
Go 'round it's only friend
And realize the world without a sun just


Whispers in the dark
Everyone hears
Something 'bout the dark
It makes us listen to our fears
Whispers in the dark
They call your name
You can't escape the dark
When light just dwindles like a flame


Love will find its own way even in the dark
This time someone shut the gates around your heart
And lonely somehow lost the key
Somethings are never meant to be
But when you're young
Your eyes are oh so sure
All you see is real, not in your mind
You know at night the candle blows


Whispers in the dark
Everyone hears
Something 'bout the dark
It makes us listen to our fears
Whispers in the dark
They call your name
You can't escape the dark
When light just dwindles like a flame


Whispers in the dark
Everyone hears
Whispers in the dark
They make us listen to our fears


Pray For Rain

(Wolf/Wolf/Dixon/Szumowski/Sims/Coyne)

Feel my desire pumping through your veins
And tip you off your wire
Your skin reflects the shadows on your dress
And juices taste like wine

A find like you's a 4-leave clover
No touching ground before it's over

Pray for rain on the moon
Don't cry heaven too soon
Let me play with your fantasy
Brand my heart, brand my skin
With your knowledge of sins
Let me pray for rain again

I kiss away the pearls of sweat
Rolling like marbles on the floor
My skin is on the verge of shattering like glass
And you want more
Your mouth is high on making sound
But just before we hit the ground

Pray

Pray for rain on the moon
Don't cry heaven too soon
Let me play with your fantasy
Brand my heart, brand my skin
With your knowledge of sins
Let me pray for rain again

Pray for rain on the moon
Don't cry heaven too soon
Let me play with your fantasy
Brand my heart, brand my skin
With your knowledge of sins
Let me pray for rain again

A find like you's a 4-leave clover
No touching ground before it's over

Pray

Pray for rain on the moon
Don't cry heaven too soon
Let me play with your fantasy
Brand my heart, brand my skin
With your knowledge of sins
Let me pray for rain again

Pray for rain
For the rain
Let me play with your fantasy
Pray
Brand my heart, brand my skin
With your knowledge of sins
Make me beg for it again
