Dangerous 03:54
Dangerous (J. Sule /G.Rogers) Verse 1 Dressed in red to match his car She asked if he was going far He couldn’t quite believe his eyes A girl like that would want to ride Drive on said his inner voice But found he couldn’t make that choice She tossed her bag onto the seat And followed it in one smooth leap Pre-Chorus: Don’t slow down – just carry on Don’t slow down just carry on (but she was) Chorus: Giving him a real good feeling, yeah Giving him a real good feeling, she was Giving him a real good feeling Things were just about, to – Get a little – DANGEROUS Verse 3 He found himself in new terrain With the girl who didn’t give her name The road began to twist and turn The rubber on his tyres burned Pre-chorus Chorus Verse 4 He took a curve at breakneck speed She egged him on with urgent need He felt the car lose some control Felt himself lose all control Pre-chorus: Don’t slow down – just carry on Don’t slow down just carry on (And she was) Chorus

Surfing in the rain (J.Sule/G.Rogers) Verse 1 Summer rain was falling when I went out walking Tide was riding high on the beach that day Summer rain was falling when I saw you surfing Riding into shore through the ocean spray Suddenly I caught your eye, Right before I saw you smile Suddenly I caught your eye … Chorus Lightning flashed right through my dazzled eyes..... when I looked at you Thunder rolled my heart from side to side....when I looked at you There ...surfing in the rain Verse 2 Rising from the foaming sea just like Poseidon Water flowing down round your chiseled form Rising from the foaming sea the waves dividing Stirring up a feeling like a thunderstorm Suddenly… Chorus Verse 3 Autumn leaves were falling when I went out walking Down the narrow aisle on our wedding day Winter snow was falling when our child was birthing Entering the world at the break of day Suddenly … Chorus

Beam me up Scotty (J. Sule / G.Rogers) When daily life has got me bound And nothing much is going down Here – or anywhere The only thing that turns me round Lifts my sights right off the ground Is there – beyond the atmosphere Pre-chorus Who really knows what’s happening in outer space? (Is there) Room for a human who’s tired of the human race? Chorus Beam me up Scotty – take me to outer space Beam me up Scotty take me away from this place Verse 2 (There’s) Worlds out there in outer space None would say were common-place Up there – beyond the stratosphere They hang there with no props or brace Suspended there with poise and grace Like stars – in the films back here Pre-chorus Chorus Outro Worlds keep turning Stars are burning Worlds keep turning Stars are burning

La-La Land 03:36
La-La Land I’m feeling all uneasy My stomach’s feeling queasy I’m jumpy and I’m edgy Like a cat on a hot, tin roof I’m feeling like I miss you Even when I’m with you Sometimes when I kiss you It feels like you’re not even in the room, you’re Chorus Far away in la-la land dreaming all your dreams Far away in la-la land scheming all your schemes Stay here with me boy and be my dream My touches fail to please you You turn away and freeze me It’s hard now to believe you Every time that you say you care I’m paranoid and lonely You know I want you only, but You’re acting kinda phony My heart says that you don’t care, you’re Chorus I’m listening to your voicemails I’m reading all your emails I sift through every detail To see where it is that you might go I’m driving every by-way I’m searching every driveway I know it’s not the right way Forgive me, boy, but I can’t let go Chorus You’re far away…

Jury's Out 04:36
Jury’s Out I hear what you say and you sound so believable I watch as you speak and you’re looking so agreeable I think what you say is almost conceivable – yeah But something is not ringing true. You back what you say with all kinds of evidence Your wording is strong and shows signs of brilliance But clear as it seems there’s no sign of penitence – yeah And something is not ringing true Chorus Can you prove beyond all doubt That she’s not the one that this is about? Can you prove beyond all doubt I am the one you can’t live without? – Oh yeah Just telling me it’s true Don’t mean that it’s the truth You want me to trust in your highest fidelity But worry and angst have been my reality The lines on my brow are scored there indelibly – yeah Cos something is not ringing true Chorus Now I can see on cross-examination that You don’t believe in your own declaration, for I can perceive a small hesitation, oh yeah And something is not ringing true Chorus Can you prove beyond all doubt That she’s not the one that this is about? Can you prove beyond all doubt I am the one you can’t live without? – Oh yeah Just telling me it’s true Don’t mean that it’s the truth Am I the one you can’t live without? – oh yeah Just telling me it’s true Don’t mean that it’s the truth

Caroline 04:06
Caroline (J.Sule/G.Rogers) Verse 1 She sang a story I thought was mine A different place and a different time – Ooh About Caroline She sang about one long car ride Music blaring, nowhere to hide – ooh From her Caroline Chorus And it stirred up a feeling Time had covered in dust And I thought she was stealing… A memory from my past Verse 2 That song knocked me off guard Recollections – hitting me hard – Ooh Driving my old car The Caroline of my dim past Accused me of treating her bad – ooh Her words strong and harsh Chorus And it stirred up a feeling Time had covered in dust Of the friendship that ended On that drive in my car Bridge How can it be her story was mine? How can it be my story was hers? Hands wet on the steering wheel From tears falling unrestrained Holding tight to the steering wheel – with tears falling – tears falling She sang a story I thought was mine A different place and a different time – Ooh About Caroline Chorus

Good things happen (J. Sule/G.Rogers) Verse 1 I want to teach my lips to smile When I’m feeling down I want to cause my brows to rise When they’re in a frown A smile works best when from the heart That I understand But when I’m finding that’s too hard I fake it till I can, cos Chorus Good things happen when you smile Try it and you’ll see Good things happen when I smile Somebody smiles at me! Verse 3 Sunshine, flowers and sweet perfume Lift my spirits high Coffee, too, helps dispel the gloom It’s easy then to smile But when it’s cold and skies are grey For days and days on end The car won’t start, there’s bills to pay It’s harder to pretend – that Chorus Good things happen when you smile Try it and you’ll see Good things happen when I smile Somebody smiles at me! Verse 5 I practice smiling every day So I can make it real The strange thing is that when I do It changes how I feel, oh Chorus

Endlessly Fascinated John Sule/Glenda Rogers Verse 1 I was bored at the midnight cabaret Fidgeting more than a cat in an alleyway Plans were sure for a hasty getaway (Then) I was floored thrown into disarray Intrigued by your mysteriosity, charmed by your warm generosity I became well-fascinated by you – you, and no-one but you Chorus Endlessly – fascinated, I’m Endlessly – fascinated, I’m Endlessly – fascinated By you, you and no-one but you, I’m Spellbound by your curiosities, awestruck by your virtuosities I became well-fascinated by you. Verse 2 You made war with dance-floor protocol I adore the way you took control You quench more than a desert waterhole You could score this woman’s heart and soul Intrigued by your mysteriosity, charmed by your warm generosity I became well-fascinated by you – you, and no-one but you Chorus

I’ll be loving you (J. Sule/G.Rogers) Verse 1 No-one knows you the Way I know you, they Say I’m sold on you I’m too old for you We don’t care what they say Our love is true And no-one knows me the Way you know me your Love was shown when you Left your home for me We don’t care what they say Our love is true Pre-chorus Who is to say if our loving is true? No-one knows love like we do Chorus I’ll be your love till the moon falls from the sky, and If the stars should fall I’ll be standing by your side I’ll be loving you Verse 2 Some perceive that we Just deceive and they Don’t believe that we’re Just naïve and they Take the essence of love And taint it all They hold a grudge against Foreign love and they Play at judge and think They’re above it all Don’t they know that our love Will conquer all? Pre-chorus Chorus Verse 3 Early wakening Agents breaking in, Charged with faking it, Body’s quaking and, how can it Be a crime To fall in love? They won’t break our love They can’t take our love, We don’t fake our love, They won’t shake our love How can it be a crime To be in love? Chorus Verse 3 Early wakening Agents breaking in, Charged with faking it, Body’s quaking and, how can it Be a crime To fall in love? They won’t break our love They can’t take our love, We don’t fake our love, They won’t shake our love How can it be a crime To be in love? Chorus

Taking a chance on my heart. (J.Sule/G.Rogers) Verse 1 Your life is a game of chance Of diamonds, clubs and spades But I won’t be your Queen of Hearts If you go on this way Pre-chorus: I don’t need a cheap-trick poker man I don’t want a wild-card joker man Chorus Taking a chance on my heart Leaving it broken apart Taking a chance on my heart Oo Oo Oo On my heart Verse 2 You may have some luck in cards But you have none in love You bet on things that never last And find they’re not enough Pre-Chorus Chorus Verse 3 Cheating in the game of cards Is just the same in love Winning is a hollow art When players have no trust Pre-Chorus Chorus

about

Both Sides of the Line Dunedin, New Zealand

Both Sides of the Line's cd, Sideshow, is " a record chock full of slinky country tunes, built upon 21st Century ‘adult contemporary’ bones. Digging a little beneath the surface you will find cooing swing come-ons here (Magical Man), fleeting touches of Americana there (Macs General Store), rockabilly beats and soft rock tendencies throughout." (Ricardo Kerr, NZ Musician). ... more
