[I only stuck the second version on here cause it amused me the words were changed a bit! Not really worth redoing, but it is amusing and oh, the joys of cut and paste! I took the liberty of putting the scant but major changes in red.]
It's the winning side
In the guiding light
And I feel so isolated
Someone cried last night
And I'd like to know you better
(Winning side
When the sleepless night
And I'd like to take you somewhere
It's the winning side
In the blinding light
And I feel so isolated
Someone cried last night
And I'd like to know you better
Winning side
When the sleepless night [He messed this up so I'll just leave it as it should be]
And I'd like to take you somewhere"Boingo Alive" Version
And everyone is cheering for the winning side
And the children leave their homes to join the winning side
And when Jesus comes he'll march on with the winning side
And we've got all the right answers
Whether wrong or right
And we have no fear
Though we have no fear
Waiting for the sign
We will give our lives
We will give our lives
It's so lonely here at night
I can almost feel you near me
I imagine that you're with me on the winning side
We don't ask too many questions on the winning side
And I've got this strange sensation on the winning side
I don't recognize the faces on the winning side
And we all live here in cages
And they made a sound
With my eyes closed tight
I hear everything
I can hear your voice
When I kiss the ground
When I kiss the ground
And I'd like to know your name
I could really show you something
If you give me half a chance
'Cause I'm on the winning side
Yeah
Oooh
Winning side
Oooh
Winning side
Oooh)
When the blindness comes
Washing over me
Like a giant wave
On a sandless beach
Washing over me
I am proud to be
That you've never been before
And I feel so isolated
And I feel so all alone here on the winning side
And I feel so all alone here on the winning side
And I feel so all alone here on the winning side
And I feel so all alone here on the winning side
And I feel so all alone, yeah, the winning side
1987 Concert Version
And everyone is cheering for the winning side
And the blinding light is shining on the winning side
And the children leave their homes to join the winning side
And we've got all the right answers
Whether wrong or right
And we have no fear
Though we have no fear
Waiting for the sign
We will give our lives
We will give our lives
It's so lonely here at night
I can almost feel you near me
I imagine that you're with me on the winning side
We don't ask too many questions on the winning side
And I've got this strange sensation on the winning side
I don't recognize the faces on the winning side
And we all live here in cages
And they made a sound
With my eyes closed tight
I hear everything
I can hear your voice
When I kiss the ground
When I kiss the ground
And I'd like to know your name
I could really show you something
If you give me half a chance
'Cause I'm on the winning side
Winning side
When the blindness comes
Washing over me
Like a giant wave
On a sandless beach
Washing over me
I am proud to be
That you've never been before
And I feel so independent
And I feel so all alone here on the winning side
And I feel so all alone here on the winning side
And I feel so all alone here on the winning side
And I feel so all alone here on the winning side
And I feel so all alone, yeah, the winning side
