Considered to be one of Australia's more successful rock bands of the late 1980s, their self-titled debut in 1987 had a series of successful singles, such as "No Lies," "Take Me Back," and "Welcome to the World." The band's second album, 1989's Touch, proved to be less successful commercially. Noiseworks disbanded in 1992, shortly after the release of the group's third album, Love Versus Money (1991).
Stevens has forged a successful solo career since Noiseworks with the albums Circle and Ain't No Life For The Faint Hearted. He went on to become the lead singer of INXS, but left after when he became frustrated with the band's lack of progress in generating new material.
2012 - The Band are in the studio recording a new album and touring later this year!

Day Will Come
Noiseworks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There you stand all alone you cry
The tears on your face just like a river run dry
The fire and flames of everything you've seen
Well, the day will come when your nightmare ends
It will come, it will come
It will come, it will come
Your day will come, day will come
Whoa-oa, whoa-oa, whoa-oa, yeah
Come together, yeah
If I could change everything you've seen
If I could be everything you need
Well, I'd take you away in a sea of love
So wipe your tears for your day will come
It will come, it will come
Your day will come, day will come
It will come, it will come
The day will come, day will come
Ooh-ooh,.. yeah
Oh, Lord
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh...)
(Don't let another day go by, day go by)
All ya gotta do is realize, yeah
(Don't let another day go by, day go by)
Don't sit and watch the world
Don't sit and watch the world go by
(Oh, no)
Ooh, yeah
(Don't let another day go by, day go by)
Raise your hands up to the sky
Raise your hands y'all

All ya gotta do is realize, yeah
