This is a compilation of songs relating to the transitional period of my life. After the local release of the 1st literary album “High Above The Earth” I got acquainted with the Group interested in joint activity in respect of writing songs.
Just a possibility of recording songs in a Swedish studio located in Malmo seemed to me a kind of breakthru’ that time.

ACT IT OUT
(Lyrics by Curtis Ayles)

Day by day night after night
I take this life for granted
But I feel there’s something wrong
I don’t know where I belong
As I can’t find an answer
Why I’m still the only one
But I’ve got to be strong
Fighting with my lonely years I feel I’ve to hold on tonight

I say to you thru’ lonely days
They are breaking us but all we need is love
All I need is love
So, let’s drown in love let’s try to act it out
Let’s drown in love we’d better act it out

Yesterdays, my old ways
My failed tries and chances
I wonder what the future brings
Will it change or stay the same?
I’m waiting for your answers
‘Cause now it’s nothing but my misery

I say to you thru’ lonely days
They are breaking us but all we need is love
All I need is love
So, let’s drown in love let’s try to act it out
Let’s drown in love we’d better act it out

I say to you thru’ lonely days
They are breaking us but all we need is love
All I need is love
So, let’s drown in love let’s try to act it out
Let’s drown in love we’d better act it out
I want to act it out

Day by day night after night
I take this life for granted
But I feel there’s something wrong
I don’t know where I belong
As I can’t find an answer
Why I’m still the only one

The only one, the only one, the only one

DIRTY DANCES
(Lyrics by Curtis Ayles)

24 hours of every single day
I hear the words that you mean to say
You drop the line and say to me
I want you baby can’t you see
It’s so unwise to get close to you
But I believe that you want it too
I’m gonna try to take this cue
So, let it be, let dreams come true

I was created a perfect love machine
To meet big city nights
I’ll be your captain you’ll be my dancing queen
Surrounded by these neon lights
That’s why I say

When love rocks and rolls
Find the way to light my ginger
When love comes and grows
It takes us higher and higher
Let love rock and roll
Do for me your dirty dances
When love comes and grows
You’re my erotic girl

French kiss is always blowing my mind
When we get together we are taking our time
I lost control but I feel so free
Night flows thru’ me so easily
Eat my breath and lick your lips
By touching me with fingertips
Get wild and feel the taste of life
Release yourself and feel love drive

I was created a perfect love machine
To meet big city nights
I’ll be your captain you’ll be my dancing queen
Surrounded by these neon lights
That’s why I say

When love rocks and rolls
Find the way to light my ginger
When love comes and grows
It takes us higher and higher
Let love rock and roll
Do for me your dirty dances
When love comes and grows
You are on fire, fire

I was created a perfect love machine
To meet big city nights
I’ll be your captain you’ll be my dancing queen
Surrounded by these neon lights
That’s why I say

When love rocks and rolls
Find the way to light my ginger
When love comes and grows
It takes us higher and higher
Let love rock and roll
Do for me your dirty dances
When love comes and grows
You are on fire, fire

Do it all to me my sweet erotic girl
Do it all to me my sweet erotic girl
Do it all to me my sweet erotic girl
Do it all to me my sweet erotic girl

Now you just can do it one more time

HEAVEN ABOVE
(Lyrics by Curtis Ayles)

So, don’t you laugh at all my plans tonight?
These wild thoughts are drifting in my mind
You’re always missing and in your absence
I’m suffering from the aching void inside

So, wake up and join me
It’s time to share our secret dreams of love
Give me the power to change the future
When happiness lies in our hands tonight
It’s just like heaven above

Don’t leave me here all by myself tonight
I just can’t make it on my own
Release you passion I’ll ease your mind
I’m gonna melt your frozen heart of stone

So, wake up and join me
It’s time to share our secret dreams of love
Give me the power to change the future
When happiness lies in our hands tonight
It’s just like heaven above

So, wake up and join me
It’s time to share our secret dreams of love
Give me the power to change the future
When happiness lies in our hands tonight
It’s in our hands tonight
Just like heaven above

WHY YOU CAN’T BE MINE
(Lyrics by Curtis Ayles)

When lights fall down you make me feel again
Your chain reaction when it answers to my touch
So, let me know if I can take and win
Your lonely heart tonight you mean to me so much

When the curtains fall
I will come to call
I’m gonna blow your mind away

Wow, if that’s got what it takes
I wonder why you can’t be mine
Deep in my heart
I don’t know why you can’t be mine

I fool myself with all these hopeless dreams
Only a perfect fool will waste his precious time
Trying to light these candles in the wind
As well as laying all emotions on the line

But when the curtains fall
You will come to call
So, let me take your heart away

Wow, if that’s got what it takes
I wonder why you can’t be mine
Deep in my heart
I don’t know why you can’t be mine

Wow, if that’s got what it takes
I wonder why you can’t be mine
Deep in my heart
I don’t know why you can’t be mine
Baby why you can’t be mine
I want to know why you can’t be mine

NOTHING BUT THE HEARTACHE
(Lyrics by Curtis Ayles)

Lonely night, one more lonely night
Lonely night, one more lonely night

Oh, my baby stayed with someone new
Uh, my loneliness you play on my heartstrings again
Oh, my baby tell me why you do
Do it all to me, I wonder why you give me this pain

When you say that you’re looking for love
Here and there but still it’s never enough
I guess one day you’ll lose your way back home
And love is nothing but the heartache

Yes, I have to feel all shades of blue
Every night and day my dreams are broken again
Have to feel my heart is ripped in two
Oh, tell me why I make just the same old mistake

When you’re absent I get filled with dismay
It’s a heartache that should be taken away
But it still remains the same and doesn’t change
And love is nothing but the heartache

Nothing but the heartache
It’s nothing but the heartache
Nothing but the heartache
It’s nothing but the heartache
Nothing but the heartache
It’s nothing but the heartache
Nothing but the heartache
It’s nothing but the heartache

DAMAGED
(Lyrics by Curtis Ayles)

Isolation seems a kind of curse
Someone says sometimes it can be worse
I’m a man who thinks that lives for more
But in fact life broke me to the core

Won’t you help me? Don’t forsake me
Please remake me I’m damaged deep inside
Won’t you save me? Please believe me
Won’t you leave me? I need you at my side

Sick and tired of life led on my own
Locked and forgotten in four walls
Deep depressed of time spent all alone
When love means nothing at all

Won’t you help me? Don’t forsake me
Please remake me I’m damaged deep inside
Won’t you save me? Please believe me
Won’t you leave me? I need you at my side

Won’t you help me? Don’t forsake me
Please remake me I’m damaged deep inside
Won’t you save me? Please believe me
Won’t you leave me? I need you at my side

DON’T DAMN ME NOW
(Lyrics by Curtis Ayles)

Wild and restless is a heart of me
Mindless major feeling love in a minor key
All my temptations couldn’t make me wise
I was so blinded drowning in the world of lies

I try to draw the line, this fact can’t be denied
Yes, I was making my wrong right
God knows I’ve tried so hard to love you
Until the end of time
Always being there where you are
Till death can do us part
Oh, baby

Don’t damn me now, don’t fall from grace
Don’t say your last goodbye
I’ll stay the one you can’t replace
No matter how you will try

Do you think that our love is dead and gone?
I don’t believe it even after all we’ve said and done

I try to draw the line, this fact can’t be denied
Yes, I was making my wrong right
God knows I’ve tried so hard to love you
Until the end of time
Always being there where you are
Till death can do us part
Oh, baby

Don’t damn me now, don’t fall from grace
Don’t say your last goodbye
I’ll stay the one you can’t replace
No matter how you will try
Don’t damn me now, don’t fall from grace
Don’t say your last goodbye
I’ll stay the man you can’t replace
No matter how you will try

I try to draw the line, this fact can’t be denied
Yes, I was making my wrong right
God knows I’ve tried so hard to love you
Until the end of time
Always being there where you are
Till death can do us part
Oh, baby

Don’t damn me now, don’t fall from grace
Don’t say your last goodbye
I’ll stay the one you can’t replace
No matter how you will try
Don’t damn me now, don’t fall from grace
Don’t say your last goodbye
I’ll stay the man you can’t replace
No matter how you will try

BABY WHY
(Lyrics by Curtis Ayles)

If only you could see the tears
Remaining hidden in my eyes
If only you could steal the fears
Living in my heart
If only I could turn back time
I know I’d do it other way
I’d never ever say goodbye
And only prayed for you to stay

Baby why every time I think about you
I’m about to lose my mind
Just like I can’t do without you
In the world we left behind
Baby, say, why did you leave me?
In the world of my own
Even if you don’t believe me
I still face these nights alone

And I don’t want to fall asleep
As I don’t mean to miss a thing
You’re living in my every dream
As it’s meant to be
In my dreams I see your smile
And feel the taste of parting kiss
It takes me back a little while
When you and me shared love like this

Baby why every time I think about you
I’m about to lose my mind
Just like I can’t do without you
In the world we left behind
Baby, say, why did you leave me?
In the world of my own
Even if you don’t believe me
I still face these nights alone

Sometimes it’s hard to keep my heart unbroken
But after all I still believe that love will guide the way
For you and me
If only you could see

Baby why every time I think about you
I’m about to lose my mind
Just like I can’t do without you
In the world we left behind
Baby, say, why did you leave me?
In the world of my own
Even if you don’t believe me
I still face these nights alone
These nights alone

I CAN’T SAY GOODBYE
(Lyrics by Curtis Ayles)

Drowning in the sea of feelings
There is nothing I can do
I hope and pray that love won’t leave us
And it will stay with me and you
A little piece of happiness
Please don’t leave me face to face with loneliness

You say it’s meant to be
This night for you and me
Don’t ask me why
I can’t say goodbye
Baby, please don’t let me go
I know you want to know
The reason why
I can’t say goodbye

I’m overflowed with love emotions
And now I’m drowning in this sea
And if you locked your heart forever
You know I’d find a proper key
A little piece of happiness
Please don’t leave me face to face with loneliness

You say it’s meant to be
Read signs of destiny
Don’t ask me why
I can’t say goodbye
Baby, please don’t let me go
I know that you will know
The reason why
I can’t say goodbye

I’m just a man of your affection
But it can break my self-control
You offer me love and protection
Just like an angel saves my soul

You say it’s meant to be
This night for you and me
Don’t ask me why
I can’t say goodbye
Baby, please don’t let me go
I know you want to know
The reason why
I can’t say goodbye

I just can’t say
I just can’t say goodbye

AIN’T IT LOVE
(Lyrics by Curtis Ayles)

If you could feel what I feel
You’d make me feel at ease
You’d be the one who I need
Just like the air that I breathe
I find you deep in my head
And there is no one instead
What does it mean?
I can’t change the state I’m in

So, ain’t it love inside me
I’m falling in it and there’s nothing that I can do
So ain’t it love inside me
When all what seems left is a hope that you feel it too

If you could read my every thought
Born inside my mind
You could be everything that I want
Until the rest of my time
And my heart says to itself
That it still needs no one else
So deep within
I can’t stop the state I’m in

So, ain’t it love inside me
I’m falling in it and there’s nothing that I can do
So ain’t it love inside me
When all what seems left is a hope that you feel it too

And every night my heart is full of love dreams
But without you they all don’t mean anything
I want to share with you the light that you bring
To my dreams

I find you deep in my head
And there is no one instead
What does it mean?
I can’t change the state I’m in

So, ain’t it love inside me
I’m falling in it and there’s nothing that I can do
So ain’t it love inside me
When all what seems left is a hope that you feel it too

Little hope that you feel it too
Little hope that you feel it too

IN EACH OTHER’S HEARTS
(Lyrics by Curtis Ayles)

Yes, there’s something wrong with me today
I’ve lost my grip and hit the floor
I’m so afraid to lose my way
Ain’t got a reason to believe
In all your love you want to give
I’m in a maze

Now my heart is full of questions why
I try my best to find a way
That leads me to a better life
Where love can make me feel alive
Where life ain’t go in a minor key
That’s what I need, I really need

When there’s no place left to go
The last hope is gone and fallen to parts
I always try to prove myself
That love that we need is in each other’s hearts
In each other’s hearts

So, what are we really living for?
What you expect to get from life
When love comes knocking at your door
Are you afraid or feeling glad?
Do you believe it’s meant to be?
What can you say?

When there’s no place left to go
The last hope is gone and fallen to parts
I always try to prove myself
That love that we need is in each other’s hearts
In each other’s hearts

Why you don’t say words I want to hear
Light up my candles in the dark
To guide the way and break a fear
Just purify your words from lies
They can be blessing in disguise
But tell the truth, I need the truth

When there’s no place left to go
The last hope is gone and fallen to parts
I always try to prove myself
That love that we need is in each other’s hearts
In each other’s hearts

ABSENT HERE
(Lyrics by Curtis Ayles)

I don’t know how I don’t know why
You came and occupied my thoughts
Maybe an angel touched my soul
I saw love heaven in your eyes
And there’s no doubt in replies
You made me lose my self-control
I know wherever I go
Whatever you do I know you can hear me

Now you’re absent here
I’m waiting for you to appear
To kiss my tears away
And make me feel
There’s nothing to fear
As you’re always near
So close to my soul

Maybe I’m crying for the moon
And I don’t know what’s gonna be
Maybe an angel breaks a secret
We all are in the hands of time
But I will keep you on my mind
And it will be a final answer
I know wherever I go
Whatever you do I know you can hear me

Now you’re absent here
I’m waiting for you to appear
To kiss my tears away
And make me feel
There’s nothing to fear
As you’re always near
So close to my soul
And you’re so close
So close

Now you’re absent here
I’m waiting for you to appear
To kiss my tears away
And make me feel
There’s nothing to fear
As you’re always near
So close to my soul
So close to my soul
So close

CALL ME BACK TONIGHT
(Lyrics by Curtis Ayles)

I got so tired of being alone
It seems so hard to take it
It’s tough to make it on my own
When love is absent in your heart
It makes me so unhappy
It even makes me fall apart

I try to hide my tears of all my lonely years
When all my lifetime seems like passed me by
It cuts me down to size ignoring all my tries
To change the way I feel this life inside
Please call me back tonight

Sometimes we all have to believe
When even there’s no hope
And hearts are filled with pain and grief
Love is a game that people play
It really makes me wonder
Why I’m left in a blank dismay

I try to hide my tears of all my lonely years
When all my lifetime seems like passed me by
It cuts me down to size ignoring all my tries
To change the way I feel this life inside
Please call me back tonight

I try to fight back all the tears I cried
And thru’ it all I still hold on to what I feel inside

I try to hide my tears of all my lonely years
When all my lifetime seems like passed me by
It cuts me down to size ignoring all my tries
To change the way I feel this life inside
Please call me back tonight
Call me back tonight

ALL ABOUT THE WAY
(Lyrics by Curtis Ayles)

Listen to your heart crying in the rain
Maybe you will hear words I’ve tried to say
Can you see the truth? Can you face it all?
When you’re feeling weak, sick and tired and small

It’s all about the way we have to go
All about the way that we all know

When there is no bird in the leaden sky
When you feel that love hurts you deep inside
And your heart is tired, life is incomplete
When love pain walks down empty one way street

It’s all about the way we have to go
All about the way that we all know

Can you tell me why we all make believe?
Maybe we should try just not to deceive
But you say we are from an imperfect world
Living all these lives our own ways and so

It’s all about the way we have to go
All about the way that we all know
It’s all about the way we have to go
All about the way that we all know
It’s all about the way we have to go
All about the way that we all know


BACKSTREETS OF OUR LIVES
(Lyrics by Curtis Ayles)

Would you try to steal a prayer sent to God above?
Would you leave me in despair to break my faith in love?
Is it unwise to change this life when all seems lost?
Do you know it to your cost?

Would you bite a hand that feeds just to get some more?
Would you heal a heart that bleeds broken to the core?
So, would you open up your heart if I closed the door?
When it’s all that we have got

Every word that is said reflected in my heart
When all it dies true love survives
In the backstreets of our lives

When you feel love’s just a dream and it walks on by
Lighting candles in the wind we just waste our time
But if there’s a will inside our hearts to take another try
Let it be the way to love

Sometimes I feel that life goes by
And failures cause my pain
Who spins the wheel of Fortune?
And turns the sunshine to the rain
While passing thru’ the darkness I hope I’ll find a way
As nothing lasts forever and I’ll see the light someday

When you wake up from a sleep of seeing life thru’ the lens
When the truth cuts you so deep breaking all your plans
If there’s someone who needs you and helps you breathe again
Let it be the way of love

Every word that is said reflected in my heart
When all it dies true love survives
In the backstreets of our lives
