YOUR EYES 'CAUSE IT'S TRUE, YES IT'S TRUE, YES IT'S
When days are long and nights are lonely
And all my daydreams have gone astray
I think about the one and only
Who's bound to find me some golden day
The one I love is coming along some day
And I'll have none except the one I love
He/She may be near or ever so far away
But I'll have none except the one I love
And though our meeting is left to chance
Until our meeting
I still will have my dream romance
And through the night I pray to the moon above
This man's a child, this man is old
Sometimes he's mild, sometimes he's bold
This man I love, sometimes in spite
I wish he would stick to his guns, or abandon the fight
But when he shines, oh when he shines
Yes when he shines, he shines so bright
Sometimes a tramp, sometimes a dude
He changes colour just like a cameleon, can't find the mood
He is a song that's not easy to write
He is a moon in the morning, and the sun out at night
But when he shines, when he shines, oh when he shines, he shines so bright
This man's a gentleman, this man is strong
This temperamental man plays me along
But when he shines, when he shines, oh when he shines, he shines so bright
Yes when he shines, when he shines, oh when he shines, he shines so bright
(Instrumental break)
But when he shines, oh when he shines
Yes when he shines, he shines so bright
Talk about the love you're missin'
Maybe then it's true when they say love is blind
I can help you if you listen
I can make you feel good if you just let my try
If everlasting love is what you're waiting for
Then that time for you just has arrived
So here I am come walk right through my door
And be loved for the rest of your life
Chorus:
If you talk about good lovin'
Let's talk about the lover in me (shoo do wop)
So don't go talk about no other
Just talk about the lover in me (shoo do wop)
I can give you all the lovin'
But I gotta know that you're there to receive
I can be your only woman
But I gotta feel that I'm all that you need
I'll be your everything and I can give you so much more
And I'll never leave you lonely at night
So here I am come walk right through my door
And be loved for the rest of your life
(Chorus X 2)
(Instrumental break)
Talk about and dream about and think about your lover
Don't talk about or dream about or think about no other
Don't run around all over town searchin' for some other
The love we found won't let us down let's talk about the lover...
I'll be your everything and I can give you so much more
And I'll never leave you lonely at night
So here I am come walk right through my door
And be loved for the rest of your life
(Chorus)
If you talk about and dream about and think about your lover
Don't talk about, think about or dream about no other
Don't run around all over town just searchin' for some other
This love we found won't let us down let's talk about the lover in me
(Chorus with ad-libs)
If you talk about and dream about and think about your lover
Don't talk about, think about or dream about no other
Don't run around all over town just searchin' for some other
This love we found won't let us down let's talk about the lover in me
(Chorus, fade)
I've been away from you for far too long
Too much chances make my heart go frantic
I wanna tell you what's been goin' on,
operator give me Trans Atlantic
I sit alone as the night goes by
Stare at the phone and wait for your reply
CHORUS:
Long long distance love affair, I can't find you anywhere
I call you on the telefone, but you're never home
I gotta get a message to you, I wanna tell you what I'm going through
What in the world's comin' over you
How come you're acting like a total stranger
I try to reach you but I can't get through
I got this feeling that my heart's in danger
I got your letter it was perfectly clear
Havin' a ball, and wishin' you are here
CHORUS
I wake up every mornin', I stumble out of bed
Stretchin' and yawnin', another day ahead
It seems to last forever, and time goes slowly by
Till babe and me's together, then it starts to fly
'Cause the moment that he's with me, time can take a flight
The moment that he's with me, everything's alright
Night time is the right time, we make love
Then it's his and my time, we take off
Chorus:
My baby takes the morning train, he works from nine till five and then
He takes another home again to find me waitin' for him
chorus
He takes me to a movie, or to a restaurant, to go
Slow dancing, anything I want
Only when he's with me, I catch light
Only when he gives me, makes me feel alright
chorus
All day I think of him, dreamin' of him constantly
I'm crazy mad for him, and he's crazy mad for me
When he steps off that train, I'm makin' a fool, a fight
Work all day to earn his pay, so we can play all night
chorus
(chorus repeats out)
He's always on that morning train
He works so hard
To find me waiting for him...
He wakes and says, "hello", turns on the breakfast show
She fixes coffee while he takes a shower
"Hey, that was great", he said, "I wish we could stay in bed"
"But I got to be at work in less than an hour"
She manages a smile as he walks out the door
She's a modern girl who's been through this movie before
Chorus:
She don't build her world 'round no single man
But she's gettin' by, doin' what she can
She is free to be, what she wants to be
'N all she wants to be, is a modern girl
Na na na na na, na na na na na, na na na na na
She's a modern girl
It looks like rain again, she takes the train again
She's on her way again through London town
Where she eats a tangerine, flicks through a magazine
Until it's time to leave her dreams on the underground
She walks to the office like everyone else
An independent lady takin' care of herself
(Chorus)
(Instrumental break)
She's been dreaming 'bout him all day long
As soon as she gets home, it's him on the telephone
He asks her to dinner, she says, "I'm not free"
"Tonight I'm gonna stay at home and watch my TV"
I don't build my world 'round no single man
But I'm (she's) gettin' by, doin' what I (she) can
I (she is) am free to be, what I (she) want(s) to be
'N all I (she) want(s) to be, is a modern girl
Na na na na na, na na na na na, na na na na na
She's a modern girl
Na na na na na, na na na na na, na na na na na,
She's a modern girl
(Repeat and fade)
Chorus:
Do you, do you, do you, do you, do you do it for love?
Do you, do you, do you, do you, do you do it for love?
Do you feel the same connection, make it right some way some how
Does it come from your emotions, open up the door a little wider now
Do you try to find the feeling, that should never go away
Can it really be so easy, just to make the feeling stay
But when you hold me tight, oh, I know why you're doing it
Coz love can't be denied, when you prove it, do it for love
Do you, do you, do you, do you, do you do it for love?
(C'mon and prove it for love)
Do you, do you, do you, do you, do you do it for love?
When you promise it's the real thing, promises that stay the same
Is it really love that you're feeling
Or just another pleasure you can't explain
Lift the lid from your emotions, does it matter what they say
Will you follow your own footsteps, baby let your heartbeat show you the
way
But when you hold me tight, oh, I know why you're doing it
Coz love can't be denied, when you prove it, do it for love
chorus - do it for love
C'mon and prove it for love
When you do me, when you hold me, when you fool me
When you do it, do it, do it, come on and do it!
I saw an old friend of ours today
She asked about you
I didn't quite know what to say
Heard youv'e been making the rounds 'round here
While I've been trying to make tears disapear
(chorus)
Now I'm almost over you
I've almost shook these blues
So when you come back around
After painting the town
You'll see I'm almost over you
You're such a sly one with a cold cold heart
Maybe leavin came easy
but it tore me apart
Time heals all wounds they say and I should know
Coz it seems like forever
But I'm letting you go
(chorus)
I can forgive you and soon
I'll forget all my shattered dreams
Although you left me with nothing to show
but all misery
(chorus)
When you come back around
after painting the town,
YOU'VE LEARNED TO LIVE WITHOUT ME I'M JUST A MEMORY A
TORN PAGE IN YOUR HISTORY A SHADOW IN THE NIGHT WHEN YOU
TURN OUT THE LIGHT YOU'VE LEARNED NOT TO DREAM ABOUT ME
YOU'VE LEARNED TO LIVE WITHOUT ME
I'M JUST ANOTHER TIME YESTERDAY THAT YOU LEFT BEHIND A
CANDLE IN THE RAIN YESTERDAY FORGOTTEN FLAME THAT RAINY
DAY HAS FINALLY FOUND ME YOU'VE LEARNED TO LIVE WITHOUT
I HEAR YOU'RE DOING FINE FOUND OTHER THINGS TO TAKE UP
YOUR TIME YOU PROBABLY DON'T REMEMBER EVER LOVING ME WE
DANCED THROUGH ALL THOSE DAYS TOGETHER I THOUGHT THAT
DANCE WOULD LAST FOREVER FUNNY HOW FOREVER FADES AWAY
YOU'VE LEARNED TO LIVE WITHOUT
I HEAR YOU'RE DOING FINE FOUND OTHER THINGS TO TAKE UP
YOUR TIME YOU PROBABLY DON'T REMEMBER EVER LOVING ME WE
DANCED THROUGH ALL THOSE DAYS TOGETHER I THOUGHT THAT
DANCE WOULD LAST FOREVER FUNNY HOW FOREVER FADES AWAY
YOU'VE LEARNED TO LIVE WITHOUT ME
I'M JUST A MEMORY A TORN PAGE IN YOUR HISTORY A SHADOW IN
THE NIGHT WHEN YOU TURN OUT THE LIGHT YOU'VE LEARNED NOT
TO DREAM ABOUT ME YOU'VE LEARNED TO LIVE WITHOUT ME
BUT NO MATTER WHAT I DO I CAN'T SEEM TO LEARN TO LIVE I
You don't have to say you love me every day, you do it
You don't have to try to keep me satisfied, you do it
Look what you have done, you're the only one who can take
me away
When you can't be mine, I spend all my time just waiting
'Till you come back around, ''cause no one else I've
found can do it
The way you do it to me when you love me
(I really do love the way that you do it)
When I need to feel the way I love to feel, you do it,
yes you do it
And I can't live without the way that you know how to do
Tell me what did I do right, to get you in my life, where
I need you to stay
At times it almost seems, I stepped into a dream when you
hold me
I guess I'm trying to say, can't do without the way you
do it
The way you do it to me when you love me
(I really do love the way that you do it)
(repeats 2x)
(You do it - I really do love the way that you do it)
You don't have to say you love me every day, you do it
(I really do love the way that you do it)
You don't have to try to keep me satisfied, you do it,
yes you do
You're the seventh son
Of the seventh son
Maybe that's why you're such a strange
And special one
You can't even seem to love yourself
And with a few exceptions
Not anybody else
You can lead a horse to water
But you cannot make him drink
You can give a man your whole heart and soul
But you cannot make him think
You could have been with me
Instead of alone and lonely
Haaay, hay, haaay, hay, yeah
(Haaay, hay, haaay, hay, yeah)
You can tell him the day of departure
Exactly the place and the time
He might really wanna be there
But he misses every time
Is he a man or a paper tiger
When you need him will he run
Or stand beside you
You could have been with me
Instead of alone and lonely
You could have been with me
Instead of alone and lonely
Haaay, hay, haaay, hay, yeah
Haaay, hay, haaay
FIRST THERE WAS A DANCE
THEN THE MUSIC STOPPED
A CHAIN OF CIRCUMSTANCE
LEFT YOU BROKEN UP
HOW DID EVERY DREAM
CYCLE INTO DUST
I STILL BELIEVE IN YOU
YOU STILL BELIEVE IN TRUST...ME
BRIDGE
DON'T LET ME CATCH YOU DOWN
LIKE A FALLEN ANGEL
YOU SHOULD'VE KNOWN THAT
I WOULD BE LIFTING YOU HIGHER
SO PICK UP THE BEAT
AND YOU CAN SWING IT
CHORUS
YEAH WE'RE GONNA SWING IT TOGETHER
TAKE CONTROL
EVERYTHING WILL TURN OUT BETTER
CAN'T YOU SEE
WE'RE GONNA SWING IT TOGETHER
TAKE CONTROL
EVERYTHING WILL TURN OUT BETTER
EASILY SEDUCED
TEMPTATION EVERYWHERE
SURRENDER TO THE BLUES
SURRENDER TO DESPAIR
LIFE IS WHAT WE CHOOSE
THE HEART WILL ALWAYS BLEED
FOR EVERY KIND OF LOVE
IS EVERY KIND WE NEED...NOW
REPEAT BRIDGE
WITHOUT YOU
I CAN TAKE THE HEARTBREAKS
THE HEARTACHES
OF THE WORLD WE LIVE IN
I CAN TAKE THE UPS AND DOWNS
THE SMILES AND FROWNS
OF ALL THE PHONY FRIENDS
BUT I'D RATHER DIE
THAN TRY TO LIVE MY LIFE WITHOUT YOU
BABY WITHOUT YOU
CHORUS
WITHOUT YOU
THERE'S NO LOVE IN MY LIFE
WITHOUT YOU
THERE'S NO LIGHT IN MY NIGHTS
WITHOUT YOU
THERE'S NO JOY IN MY SIGHT
WITHOUT YOU
THERE'S NO JOY IN MY LIFE
I CAN TAKE THE JOYS AND PAINS
THE STRESS AND STRAIN
OF A LONG HARD DAY
I'LL RIDE THE PEAKS AND LOWS WITH YA
CAUSE THAT'S HOW IT GOES - DIDN'T YA KNOW
THAT'S THE WAY - TO SAY
I'D RATHER DIE
THAN TRY TO LIVE MY LIFE WITHOUT YOU
WITHOUT YOU
REPEAT CHORUS
AD LIBS:
WHAT GOOD IS MY LIFE
TRYING TO SURVIVE WITHOUT YOU
WITHOUT YOU THERE'S NO GOOD LIPS TO KISS
WITHOUT YOU THERE'S NO LOVIN' TO MISS
WITHOUT YOU THERE'S DARKNESS
THERE IS NO LIGHT IN MY LIFE
WITHOUT YOU COLD ARE MY NIGHTS
You laid your feelings on the line, I never stood a
chance
We found the perfect love this time, why let little doubt
turn us inside out
Chorus:
What if we fall in love, what if we can`t get out
What if we`re in too deep, guess we both got doubts
What if it doesn`t last, what if the road gets rough
Only fools ask what if we fall in love
Life never gives a guarantee, love doesn`t always last
Why worry `bout our destiny, I`m with you tonight, let`s
not question why
chorus
If you ever find yourself confused, if you ever think of
leaving me
Just remember how much I love you, love is never worry
free
chorus repeats 2x
LETS GET TOGETHER AND DO WHAT COMES NATURALLY
I'VE BEEN HOLDING BACK MY LOVE FOR SUCH A LONG TIME
NOBODY'S COME ALONG THAT I WOULD WANT TO CALL MINE
MY PHONE'S BEEN RINGING BUT MY HEART IT JUST WON'T
ANSWER
I CAN'T PRETEND CAUSE IT'S LOVE I'M AFTER
I'VE BEEN LOOKIN'
I WAS NOT PREPARED FOR WHAT I SAW IN YOUR EYES
I SAW SOMETHING I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR A LONG TIME
LETS GET TOGETHER
WE JUST ME BUT I KNOW THAT YOU'RE NO STRANGER
I CAN TELL THAT MY HEARTS IN DANGER
CHORUS
I'VE BEEN LOOKIN FOR YOU
YOU'VE BEEN LOOKIN FOR ME
LETS GET TOGETHER AND DO WHAT COMES NATURALLY
THERES A TIME TO BE WILD
THERE'S A TIME TO BE FREE
LETS GET TOGETHER AND DO WHAT COMES NATURALLY
I COULD PLAY HARD TO GET BUT WHAT GOOD WOULD THAT DO ME
YOU'D LOOK INTO MY EYES AND YOU WOULD SEE RIGHT THROUGH
THIS IS A POWERFUL FEELING THAT WERE FEELIN
I CAN'T DENY ITS MY HEART YOU'RE STEALIN
I'VE BEEN LOOKIN
I WANT TO TELL YOU NOW, I AM NOT AFRAID
I'LL LET THE WALLS COME DOWN, TONIGHT I'M FEELIN' BRAVE
BEEN LOOKIN FOR YOU
YOU'VE BEEN LOOKIN FOR ME, YOU'VE BEEN LOOKIN' FOR ME
BABY SET YOUR LOVE FREE, SET YOUR LOVE FREE
LETS GET TOGETHER AND DO WHAT COMES NATURALLY
All the flights were grounded, so I headed for the
homeward sign
Didn`t think to call you, I had my watch set on
Parisien time
There she was, her fingers in my house, lying on her
back in my bed
Wasn`t what I`d hardly expected, and oh God I wish I
were dead
Chorus:
I found her red heeled stilletoes, I watched them burn
in my fire
One weekend in Paris, I`m gone for good
All her clothes were scattered, her perfume hanging in
the air
Through the door her laughter, getting louder but you
didn`t care
There it was, her lipstick, her make-up
Her painted nails still touching your skin
Could not believe what my eyes were watching, and oh
God, will I ever win
chorus
I drove round till 4 a.m., had a cold coffee and then
I made up my mind, my watch would stay on Parisien time
She can keep her head on my pillow, she can watch my
ceiling, my floor
She can check herself in my mirror, `cause I won`t be
doin` that no more
You don't give a show of public affection
How do I know if there's still an attraction
Don't give a sign it's there any longer
Goes on and on, I just don't belong here
I want to go where the goin's good, oh, I want to go
while I still know I could
[Chorus:]
want to give my love, want to give my love
want to give my heart, want to give my all, someone's
gonna give it back yeah
want to give my love, want to give my love
want to give my heart, want to give my all, this time
gonna get it back
Don't feel a fire, no spark of devotion
It's not my desire to go through the motions
Don't see a reason to feel out of danger
You sure ain't willin' to do any changin'
I want to go where the goin's good, oh, I want to go
while I still know I could
[Chorus:]
It ain't too late for someone new, it ain't too late to
get what's mine
I've got a right to someone who
Can give to me what I gave, what I gave to you
(Instrumental break)
Two shady characters, sittin' in the halflight, havin' a
conversation
One said to the other, "I seem to have a brother
that appreciates your consideration"
My back seems to be against the wall, can't find any way
out of here at all
The heat is too close to home, and all I want is to be
left alone
[Chorus:]
There's trouble in the shadows, I can smell it, I can
feel a conspiracy
There's trouble in the shadows, I can feel it, somebody
wants to squeeze me
He makes honey finding money, he makes honey, finding
money
There's too many people, livin' under my skin
Don't ever know what shoes I am in
I don't want to hold the purse, it's a family curse
My back seems to be against the wall, can't find any way
out of here at all
The heat is too close to home, and all I want is to be
left alone
[chorus repeats 2x]
I'VE SEEN THE SHIPS GO DOWN OUT ON THE SEA OF LOVE
UNTIL YOU CAME AROUND I THOUGHT I'D NEVER RISE ABOVE
CAUSE "HAPPY EVER AFTER" WAS A DISASTER FOR ME BUT NOW
I SEE
I USED TO BE SO RUDE TO COVER UP MY WOUNDED PRIDE I'VE
DROPPED THE ATTITUDE AND NOW MY HEART IS OPEN WIDE YOU
MADE ME A BELIEVER NOW I'M DOWN ON MY KNEES OH BABY
PLEASE
CHORUS
I'M TOO MUCH IN LOVE THIS TIME NOTHING'S GONNA CHANGE
MY MIND BABY IT'S FOR KEEPS I'M IN TOO DEEP BOY THERE
IS NO QUESTION THIS TIME I AM TOO MUCH IN LOVE TOO MUCH
IN LOVE TOO MUCH IN LOVE I'M TOO MUCH IN LOVE
YOU SAW THE SOFTER SIDE I NEVER COULD REVEAL YOU DIDN'T
CHANGE MY MIND BOY BOY YOU CHANGED THE WAY I FEEL
EMOTIONAL COMMITMENT LAY IT ALL ON THE LINE AND IT
FEELS SO FINE
I DIDN'T TAKE THE CHANCE THE CHANCE HAS TAKEN ME
THERE'S NO CONTROLLING LOVE IT'S GOING WERE IT'S MEANT
TO BE MUTUAL AFFECTION IN THE HANDS OF FATE AND IT'S
NOT TOO LATE
REPEAT CHORUS
I DON'T WANNA LOSE CONTROL OF MY EMOTIONS BUT MAYBE
THAT'S WHAT LIFE'S ABOUT AND BABY I'LL NEVER KNOW TILL
I LET IT OUT AND I WANNA SHOUT
REPEAT CHORUS
TOO MUCH IN LOVE TOO MUCH IN LOVE I'M TOO MUCH IN LOVE
I'M TOO MUCH IN LOVE THIS TIME NOTHING'S GONNA CHANGE
MY MIND BABY IT'S FOR KEEPS I'M IN TOO DEEP BOY THERE
IS NO QUESTION THIS TIME I AM TOO MUCH IN LOVE TOO MUCH
IN LOVE TOO MUCH IN LOVE I'M TOO MUCH IN LOVE
Broken, just another heart
Another dream fallen from heaven
Everybody's got to cry
Sometime but nobody wants to
I know, I'm not alone
That other loves have fallen from heaven
I know, the world goes on
The sun will shine with or without you
Anyone who's ever been in love
Knows why I'm crying
Anyone who's ever cared
Anyone who's ever been in love
Knows why I'm trying
To bring back the love we shared
My heart takes another beat
Makes another wish filled with desire
Everybody's got to hope
Sometime, that love lifts us higher
I hope when you're alone
You think of me and somehow you're listening
I pray, you will one day come running back
To the love you've been missing
Anyone who's ever been in love
Knows why I'm crying
Anyone who's ever cared
Anyone who's ever been in love
Knows why I'm trying
To bring back the love we shared
Day after day as my blues turn to gray
As my heart gives way I surrender
Anyone who's ever been in love
Knows why I'm crying
Anyone who's ever cared
Anyone who's ever been in love
Knows why I'm trying
To bring back the love we shared
Anyone who's ever been in love
Knows why I'm crying
Anyone who's ever cared
Anyone who's ever been in love
Knows why I'm trying
To bring back the love we shared
Anyone who's ever been in love
Knows why I'm crying
Anyone who's ever cared
You're too kind, an easy touch for strangers
You take them in, salvation for the wayward souls
Losers no one wants to know, vagrant love's got a place to go
When he's down and out, that's when you're attracted
Another victory in your personal crusade
I was all used up beyond repair, you picked me up
Chorus:
You were always right there when I needed you
You were there when I needed you (brought me back)
There when I needed you (recycled me back to love)
You were there when I needed you (brought me back)
It's the same old song, your patience made me fall for the doctor
That's your sign, you knew that I would be okay (you sent me on my way)
On to your next mission somewhere, like you saved me
chorus
(Instrumental break)
On to your next mission somewhere, like you saved me
chorus
There when I needed you (recycled me back to love)
You were there when I needed you (brought me back)
I DIDN'T GIVE AS MUCH AS TAKE
THAT WAS MY FIRST MISTAKE
I LEARNED MY LESSON MUCH TOO LATE
BUT YOU WOUNDED HEART WOULDN'T WAIT
UNTIL I SAW THE ANSWERS
WERE RIGHT THERE IN YOUR EYES
BUT NOW I KNOW THE ANSWERS
I'VE LEARNED TO COMPROMISE
CHORUS
THE NEXT TIME
I SWEAR I'LL TAKE EACH MOMENT
AND WEIGHT IT IN MY HAND
TRY TO UNDERSTAND THE OTHER SIDE
NOT JUST MINE
MY LOVE WON'T BE BLIND
THE NEXT TIME
THERE'LL BE A HAPPY ENDING
CAUSE NOW MY HEART CAN SEE
HOW LONELY RIGHT CAN BE
I WISH THERE DIDN'T HAVE TO BE
A NEXT TIME
I'M GETTING STRONGER EVERYDAY
BUT I'D WISH THE PAST AWAY
IF I COULD CONVINCE YOUR HEART TO STAY
IF I COULD JUST FIND A WAY
TO LET YOU SEE I'M CHANGING
AND SHOW YOU WHO I AM
IT'S UP TO ME TO CHANGE THINGS
I PROMISE THAT I CAN
REPEAT CHORUS
GIVE ME A CHANCE TO SHOW YOU (THE NEXT TIME)
GIVE ME A CHANCE
I SWEAR I'LL COME THROUGH
THE NEXT TIME
I'M GONNA TAKE EACH PRECIOUS MOMENT
AND HOLD IT IN MY HAND
I'LL UNDERSTAND YOUR FEELINGS
NOT JUST MINE
I WON'T BE SO BLIND
THE NEXT TIME
THERE'S GONNA BE A HAPPY ENDING
CAUSE NOW MY HEART CAN SEE
HOW LONELY RIGHT CAN BE
I WISH THERE DIDN'T HAVE TO BE
A NEXT TIME
GIVE ME A CHANCE TO SHOW YOU
(THE NEXT TIME)
Let me be the first to say, ain't it always so
But there's no other way to find out what I need to know
It's not that I don't think you care, it's what you
haven't said
That keeps me guessing day and night, putting visions in
my head
[Chorus:]
Don't let me be the last - if you thought of leaving
would you tell me
Don't let me be the last - if the truth would hurt me
would you lie to me
(What would you say)
Don't you keep it to yourself for my protection, break it
to me now
Don't let me be the last - if there's anything you want
to tell me
Don't let me be the last - like you're never gonna let me
Honey, all I ask, don't let me be the last to know
You know how a friend will talk, a secret's hard to keep
And this girl he says you're in love with, sounds a lot
like me
Still it's not for me to say if what I heard is true
And I won't let myself believe a word, till I hear it
from you
YOU, YOU SAY I'M TOO TOUGH
BUT I ONLY KNOW WHAT I'VE LEARNED
FALL JUST ONCE, AND DON'T GO DOWN IN FLAMES
THAT'S ALL IT TAKES TO GET BURNED
I DON'T INTEND
TO GO THROUGH LIFE ALL ALONE
UNTIL I CAN FIND
A HEART THAT'S TENDER AND STRONG
I'LL MAKE IT ON MY OWN
I'M WAITING FOR THE FIRST TOUCH OF LOVE
ONLY A FOOL WOULD EXPECT ME TO FALL
BEFORE I FEEL THE FIRST TOUCH OF LOVE
GIVE ME A REASON AND I'LL RISK IT ALL FOR LOVE
...FOR LOVE
YOU, YOU DON'T GIVE ME MUCH
I COULDN'T GET FOR MYSELF
JUST WORDS, USED UP AND TIRED
THAT I BOUGHT FROM SOMEBODY ELSE
I'LL LET DOWN MY GUARD
WHEN I BELIEVE WHAT YOU SAY
YOU'RE TRYING TOO HARD
YOU CAN'T RUSH ME THIS WAY
WHEN IT'S RIGHT I'LL STAY
CHORUS
I'M WAITING FOR THE FIRST TOUCH OF LOVE
ONLY A FOOL WOULD EXPECT ME TO FALL
BEFORE I FEEL THE FIRST TOUCH OF LOVE
SHOW ME YOU'RE REAL AND I'LL SHOW YOU MY HEART
I'M WAITING FOR THE FIRST TOUCH OF LOVE
ONLY A FOOL WOULD EXPECT ME TO FALL
BEFORE I FEEL THE FIRST TOUCH OF LOVE
GIVE ME A REASON AND I'LL RISK IT ALL FOR LOVE
I'LL LET DOWN MY GUARD
WHEN I FIND SOMEONE TO TRUST
YOU'RE PUSHING TOO HARD
SWEET TALK JUST AIN'T ENOUGH
WHAT'S THE RUSH BOY
I've had enough of your telephone lines, I don't hear the
truth in your voice
There's no affection, just static connection, so I've
made the choice
[Chorus:]
I'm gonna start hangin' up, I'm tired of your telephone
lines
We might as well disconnect, this love's goin' nowhere
Don't even bother to call, your telephone line's sayin'
Goodbye baby, put me on hold for the last time
You make an excuse from a telephone booth
Say "Sorry, but something's come up"
I'm changin' my number, I'm relisted under the lonely
[Chorus:]
You sound convincing, but I know you're only wasting my
time
It don't make sense, so don't even waste your dime
When I was young, people used to say
Someday the right one will come your way
Could be tomorrow, could be today
But when he does, you'll know it right away, till then I'll
Chorus:
Take my time, lookin' for the right one, I need a lover that stays around
I'm gonna take my time, lookin' for the right one
I need somebody to tie me down
And so I waited patiently, will it be like my fantasy
The only problem I can't foresee, will I find him or will he find me
And if he does, will he understand, that I've the future already planned
And I'll do everything that I can
Won't take no chances, won't show my hand, I'm gonna
chorus
Oooh, I need a lover, oooh, to tie me down, oooh, I need a lover around
(Instrumental break)
I'm gonna
chorus repeats out
See that man with the diamond ring, he came sneakin'
by, the standard thing
But I insist upon a dance, nothing less could stand the
chance
You may not have a whole lotta money but your words are
like more, I want that
Sweet talk, I love your sweet talk
So tell me one more time, you've never known a touch
like mine
Don't stop once you've started, don't leave me hungry
hearted
I need you 'till you find me, how you find me
Sweet talk, I love your sweet, sweet talk
Tender wind is swallowin' my brain, promises of love in
static pain
Turn me on most demolitious, your sweet talk is so
delicious
You know that I need comfort, just a little nervous
I hugged too long, that'll tell us
Your way with words is so delightful, I can hardly
wait, I can't love an echo
I will always lend an ear to hear your
Sweet, sweet talk, give me your sweet sweet talk
(Solo)
So tell me one more time, you've never known a touch
like mine
Don't stop once you've started, don't leave me hungry
hearted
I need you 'till you find me, how you find me
Sweet talk, tell me your sweet talk
I love your sweet talk, give me your sweet talk
I want your sweet talk, sweet talk
I love your sweet talk, ooh sweet talk
I won't bother asking what you've done
Though the rumors all point to something going on
See the past is the past, I'm not gonna dwell
But I better never catch you with someone else
So I'll put it to you once, but never again (swear)
If you wanna be a lover, if you wanna be a friend
(swear)
Then take five fingers, and put it to your heart
(swear)
S.W.E.A.R.
Hand over heart and swear that you love me, swear that
you need me
Get a judge and jury, bible in your hand
Gotta tell the whole truth, nothing less than that, boy
(Swear) That you love me! (Swear) That you need me
(Swear) That you want me! (Swear) Tell the truth!
Hand over heart and swear that you love me, swear that
you need me
Swear!
(Swear) That you love me! (Swear) That you need me
(Swear) That you want me! (Swear) Tell the truth!
Hand over heart and swear that you love me, swear that
you want me
I won't bother asking what you've done
Though the rumors all point to something going on
See the past is the past, I'm not gonna dwell
But I better never catch you with someone else
So I'll put it to you once, but never again
If you wanna be a lover, if you wanna be a friend
Then take five fingers, and put it to your heart
AND SHE WALKS BY THE SEA
AND SHE'S ALWAYS ALONE
SHE KNOWS THAT IT'S STRANGE
STAYING OUT IN THE RAIN
BUT THERE'S NO ONE AT HOME
SO SHE KICKS UP THE SAND
AND STARES AT THE WAVES
SHE WAITS FOR THE SUN
AND THE PEOPLE WHO COME
WITH THE HOT SUMMER DAYS
CHORUS
EASY TO REMEMBER
IN A LATE SEPTEMBER
BUT NOBODY TOLD HER
THAT THE SUMMER'S OVER
ALL THOSE HOT SUMMER NIGHTS
SHE WOULD SLEEP ON THE BEACH
NIGHTS FULL OF JOY
WHEN THOSE YOUNG SUMMER BOYS
WERE NEVER FAR FROM HER REACH
My sugar walls
My sugar walls
Where I come from there's a place called Heaven
That's the place where all the good children go
The houses are of silver, the streets of gold
But there's more where you come from my sugar walls
My sugar walls
My sugar walls
Blood races to your private spots
Let me know there's a fire
You can't fight passion when passion is hot
Temperatures rise inside my sugar walls
Let me take you somewhere, you've never been
I could show you things you've never seen
Well, I could make you never wanna fall in love again
Come spend the night inside my sugar walls
Take advantage
It's alright
I feel so alive when I'm with you
Come and feel my presence
It's reigning tonight
Heaven on Earth inside my sugar walls
Let me take you somewhere, you've never been
Well, I could show you things you've never seen
Well, I could make you never wanna fall in love again
Come spend the night inside my sugar walls
I can tell you want me
It's impossible to hide
Your body's on fire
Admit it come inside
My sugar walls
My sugar walls
Come inside
My sugar walls
My sugar walls
My sugar walls
Come spend the night inside
My sugar walls
My sugar walls
He said, "Baby, what's wrong with you?
Why don't you use your imagination?
Nations go to war over women like you
It's just a form of appreciation"
Come on over here, lay your clothes on the chair
Now let the lace fall across your shoulder
Standin' in the half light, you're almost like her
Now, take it slow like your daddy told ya
Strut, pout, put it out, that's what you want from women
Come on baby, what you takin' me for?
Strut, pout, cut it out, all takin' and no givin'
Watch me baby while I walk out the door
I said, "Honey, I don't like this game
You make me feel like a girl for hire
All this fascination with leather and lace
Is just the smoke from another fire"
He said, "Honey, don't stop this speedin' train
Before it reaches its destination
Lie down here beside me, oh have some fun too
Don't turn away from your true vocation"
Strut, pout, put it out, that's what you want from women
Come on baby, what you takin' me for?
Strut, pout, cut it out, all takin' and no givin'
Watch me baby while I walk out your door
I won't be your baby doll
Be your baby doll
I won't be your baby doll
Be your baby doll
Strut, pout, put it out, that's what you want from women
Come on baby, what you takin' me for?
Strut, pout, cut it out, all takin' and no givin'
Watch me baby while I walk out the door
Strut, pout, put it out, that's what you want from women
Come on baby, what you takin' me for?
Strut, pout, cut it out, all takin' and no givin'
Watch me baby while I walk out your door
Strut, pout, put it out, that's what you want from women
Come on baby, what you takin' me for?
Strut, pout, cut it out, all takin' and no givin'
DON'T TALK IN RIDDLES PUT IT DOWN THE MIDDLE YOU KNOW
THAT SHE HAS A GOOD TIME BOY YOUR SURPRISE IS YOU TAKE NO
COMPROMISES BETTER PUT IT RIGHT ON THE LINE YOU WANT A
FIXTURE JUST A PRETTY PICTURE SOMEONE YOU CAN NAIL ON
YOUR WALL YOU TRY TO USE HER YOU'RE GONNA LOSE HER AND
FIND YOURSELF WITH NOTHING AT ALL
CHORUS HEY YOU, WHAT YOU TRYING TO DO? DON'T YOU KNOW
THIS WOMAN'S HEARD IT ALL BEFORE, MOVE ON TAKE YOUR LOVE
AND RUN HOLD ON TO FOREVER BABY NOW IT'S UP TO YOU IF YOU
CAN'T MAKE IT DON'T TRY TO FAKE IT JUST TAKE YOUR FINGER
OUT OF THE PIE WHEN YOU DELIVER SHE COMES ON LIKE A RIVER
RUSHING WHEN THE WATER IS HIGH SHE NEEDS A FIGHTER
SOMEONE TO EXCITE HER A RUNAWAY WHERE NOTHING CAN STOP
SWIM WHILE SHE'S GOING GO WHERE SHE'S GOING HOLD YOU BACK
AND GET WHAT YOU GOT
The last time I took a chance on love, I gave it all I
And still it ended with a broken heart
And I vowed I'd never fall again, 'cause I couldn't
stand the pain
Of losin' someone I cared for, I'd be torn apart
forever
Then came you, and I got that feeling again
Oh, I'm still willing to try love
What can I do when the road leads back to you
Still willing to try love, you are the reason I share
this heart again
Somehow, the tears were not enough
I tried to put the pieces back together again, start
all over
But you were a blessing in disguise
'Cause now I look into your eyes and all my fears are
gone
What a feelin', oh darlin', I want you to know, I'm
leaving it all up to you
Oh, I'm still willing to try love
Oh what can I do, all the roads lead back to you
I'm willing to try love, you're the reason I share this
heart again
Your love keeps me together, all that my eyes can see
is you loving me
Over and over
I'm willing to try love, what can I do, the road leads
back to you
Still willing to try, you're the reason I share this
heart again
Oh, what can I do when the road leads back to you
I'm willing to try love, you're the reason I share this
heart again
WHEN YOU LEFT ME YOU TOOK MY HEART WITH YOU
YOU SAID THAT LEAVING WAS THE RIGHT THING TO DO
I DON'T ADMIT TO KNOW A BETTER WAY
BUT I MISS YOU, HOW I MISS YOU
NOW I TELL MYSELF I'M FALLING IN LOVE
BUT WHENEVER HE'S NEAR ME
IT'S YOU I'M THINKING OF
CHORUS
I FOUND SOMEBODYWHO CAN TREAT ME LIKE SOMEBODY
SHOWS ME HOW IT COULD BE IF ONLY
IT COULD BE THIS WAY WITH YOU
BABY WITH YOU
I TRIED TO TELL YOU SO MANY TIMES
BUT YOU REFUSED TO TAKE A LOOK AT YOUR LIFE
YOU TURN THINGS ROUND TO PUT THE BLAME ON ME
BUT BABY IT'S YOU, BABY IT'S YOU
NOW I FEEL LIKE I'M JUST PLAYING THE PART
HE TELLS ME THAT HE LOVES ME
BUT YOU'RE STILL IN MY HEART
REPEAT CHORUS
HE SAW ME LONELY
BROUGHT ME BACK TO LIFE AND SHOWED ME
YOU AND I IN MY DREAMS IF ONLY
IT COULD BE THIS WAY WITH YOU
SO WE SAY GOODBYE TO A LOVE WE ONCE BELIEVED IN
TO SLEEPLESS NIGHTS
AND AUTUMN LIGHTS???
AND YESTERDAYS
AND YOU WALK AWAY
FROM THE THINGS WE SHARED TOGETHER
THE SUMMER BREEZE
NEW YEAR'S EVE
RAINY AFTERNOONS
SO COLD
YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO MAKE IT SOUND SO COLD
NO TEARS, NO SORROW, NO REASONS, IT'S OVER
I'M LEAVING SO SOON
IF YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND
AND STAYED ANOTHER HOUR
THEN TIME COULD START TO CHANGE YOUR HEART
AND TEACH YOU HOW TO CRY
IT'S NOW OR NEVER
You must be happy, you look wonderful,
Never seen you look so fine
I've heard all about her, you're mad about her
You talk about her all the time
You say you love her, she's given you
Everything you'll ever need
Though I still adore you, I'm happy for you
I know that it's too late for me
Chorus:
The only love I ever wanted is gone forever,
I can never put my world together
So much in love, I know you'll never come back to me
Whoa, love doesn't come to you every minute
If you hold back, someone else will win it
If you gotta love, put your heart right in it,
never set it free
So think it over, and you'll understand
I'm not tryin' to change your mind
Know she'll never love you the way I love you
Boy don't miss your chance this time
chorus
(Instrumental break)
No way of knowin' where we're goin'
No way of tellin' what we've got
Love is attraction, calls for action, like it or not
We're no one-nighter, we're much righter
I taste tomorrow in your kiss
But I can't sell you, I won't tell you
That we can't miss, I'll just say this
So far so good, we've been movin' right along just like we should
So far so good, if it isn't love, it's still in the neighborhood
Knock on wood baby, so far so good
I tell you one thing, we got somethin'
Somethin' that's comin' from the heart
If we don't know it
I just know it could be a start
You take your chances with romances
Nobody gets a guarantee
We're much better than I ever thought we could be
So let's just see
So far so good, we've been movin' right along just like we should
So far so good, if it isn't love, it's still in the neighborhood
Knock on wood baby, so far so good
I'm not pullin' any punches
I'm not handin' you a line
I'm just tellin' you my hunch
Is all we need is a touch more time
So far so good, we've been movin' right along just like we should
So far so good, if it isn't love, it's still in the neighborhood
Knock on wood baby, so far so good
We've been movin' right along just like we should
So far so good, if it isn't love, it's still in the neighborhood
Knock on wood baby, so far so good
We've been movin' right along just like we should
HE BREAKS THE RECORDS AND HEARTS WITHOUT A THOUGHT
HE BREAKS ENGAGEMENTS AND RULES AND DON'T GET CAUGHT
HE BREAKS THE ICE IN COOL LADIES WITH THE WARMTH OF HIS
SMILE
HE MAKES ADVANCES AND DANCES VERY WELL
HE TAKES HIS CHANCES AND LIBERTIES AS WELL
HE TAKES ADVICE AND EXCEPTION WITH A SELF ASSURED STYLE
HE'S GOT SAVOIR FAIRE, OH YEAH
YOU CAN FEEL IT IN THE AIR
SAVOIR FAIRE, SAVOIR FAIRE, YEAH
COMPLETE ATTENTION IS WHAT HIS EGO NEEDS
NO APPREHENSION, HE'S NEVER ILL AT EASE
YOU FEEL THE TENSION AROUND HIM
Everybody tells me, I should try to forget you
They tell me why, but don't tell me how
I know they mean well, but it does not help me
I'll work it out by myself somehow
Got to be on my own, it's just something that I must face
alone
Chorus:
Please don't sympathise, it really doesn't help
Don't give me your advice, just keep it to yourself
I appreciate your taking time to call
But please don't sympathise, it doesn't help at all
Friends come to see me, but I just can't face them
I feel such a fool, when they see me cry
Since you walked out, I've been so downhearted
It's hard to take, but I know I must try, so
chorus
(Instrumental break)
Got to be on my own, it's just something that I must face
alone
THERE'S A LIGHT BEHIND YOUR EYES I SEE IT SHINING IT ONLY
FADES WHEN YOU CRY THERE'S A HEART THAT BEATS SO STRONG I
FEEL IT DYING WHEN THE NIGHT TIME LASTS TOO LONG NOW YOU
AND I HAVE LIVED OUT CENTURIES AND ALL I CAN SAY IS WHAT
YOU'VE OFFERED TO ME
CHORUS
PLEASE DON'T BE SCARED CAUSE I'VE STOOD THERE TOO BETWEEN
SURVIVAL AND THE RIGHT THING TO DO CAUSE ONLY THE STRONG
ADMIT THEIR FEARS AND IF YOU REALLY NEED ME I'LL ALWAYS
BE HERE
THE PARTIES AND THE LIGHTS FADE TO MEMORIES IN THE STILL
OF THE NIGHT AND YOU WONDER IN YOUR MIND IF THERE'S
NOTHING LEFT TO SHOW FOR ALL THE TIME CAUSE FEELIN'
PAIN'S A HARD WAY
TO KNOW YOU'RE STILL ALIVE BUT SOMEDAY SOMEONE WILL MAKE
YOU GLAD I SURVIVED
YOU'RE TOO MUCH AND YET I CAN'T HAVE ENOUGH
THAT'S ONE PARADOX I COULD LIVE WITH
LOVE OF MY LIFE AND YET NOT REALLY MY TYPE
THAT'S ONE SWEET ??? I COULD LIVE WITH
WHEN MY MIND IS SPINNING AROUND
YOU'RE ALWAYS THERE TO CALM ME DOWN
LIKE AN AUTUMN LEAVE THAT FINALLY TOUCHES DOWN
WHEN MY FEVER'S RIDING HIGH
I KNOW YOU'RE ALWAYS STANDING BY
WITH SOME INSPIRATION WHEN I'M RUNNING DRY
BECAUSE YOU'RE TOO MUCH AND YET I CAN'T HAVE ENOUGH
I'LL LIGHT THE FIRE YOU PLACE THE FLOWERS IN THE VASE
THAT YOU BOUGHT TODAY STARING AT THE FIRE FOR HOURS AND
HOURS WHILE I LISTEN TO YOU PLAY YOUR LOVE SONGS ALL
NIGHT LONG FOR ME ONLY FOR ME
COME TO ME NOW AND REST YOUR HEAD FOR JUST FIVE MINUTES
EVERYTHING IS GOOD SUCH A COSY ROOM THE WINDOWS ARE
ILLUMINATED BY THE SUNSHINE THROUGH THEM FIERY GEMS FOR
YOU ONLY FOR YOU
OUR HOUSE IS A VERY, VERY FINE HOUSE WITH TWO CATS IN THE
YARD LIFE USED TO BE SO HARD NOW EVERYTHING IS EASY
'CAUSE OF YOU
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH BABY
I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE THAT BY THE END OF EACH DAY
SOMEHOW YOU'RE GIVING ME
ONE MORE REASON TO LOVE YOU
LIKE THE WAY THAT YOU SMILE
OR THE WAY YOU BRUSH THE HAIR FROM MY EYES
YOU GIVE SOMETHING
THAT I THOUGHT I'D NEVER HAVE
AND WHEN YOU SEND ME THAT LOOK
YOU KNOW I'VE GOT TO ADD
ONE MORE REASON TO LOVE YOU
I'M RUNNING OUT OF NUMBERS COUNTING UP TO HEAVEN
LOVE NEVER FELT SO RIGHT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE
ALL I KNOW IS BABY
CHORUS
EVERY DAY YOU'RE GIVING ME
ONE MORE REASON TO LOVE YOU
AND BABY WHEN YOU SMILE ALL I SEE IS ONE MORE REASON TO
LOVE YOU
YOU GIVE ME, YOU GIVE ME, YOU GIVE ME REASON
ONE MORE REASON
THE WAY YOU LAUGH
THE WAY YOU SMILE
THE WAY YOU CALL MY NAME
AND EVEN IF WE'RE ALL STANDING IN THE POURING RAIN
NOTHING COULD SUIT ME BETTER
JUST AS LONG AS WE'RE TOGETHER
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE
LOVE NEVER FELT SO RIGHT
COS ALL I KNOW BABY
REPEAT CHORUS
WHEN I LAY DOWN AT THE END OF THE DAY
I FEEL SO LUCKY
I HOPE I'LL ALWAYS FIND THE WORDS TO SAY
HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU
I'm a one man woman, that's forever
So open your eyes, we can't stay together
I'd rather say from the start, before we take it too far
I'm a one man woman, I'm a one man woman, I'm a one man
woman, oohoo
I'm a one man woman, and you want me to
Be yours for one night, and that's all I am to you
Two's complete, three is a crowd, so I'm not playin'
around
I'm a one man woman, I'm a one man woman, I'm a one man
woman, oohoo
There's only one, and you don't come near him no way
There's only one, and you'll understand what I mean,
someday, hey, hey, hey
(Instrumental break)
I'm free to do as I please, but I know what works best
for me
I'm a one man woman, I'm a one man woman
I'm a one man woman, I'm a one man woman
I'm a one man woman, I'm a one man woman, I'm a one man
woman, oohoo
HOW CAN I GET PAST THE PAIN LOOKING BACK OVER YESTERDAY
AM I TO BLAME YOU KNOW IT DON'T FEEL FEEL THE SAME
FEELING LONELY WITHOUT YOU NOW I'M FEELING SO AFRAID YEAH
I CAN STILL HEAR THOSE WORDS SO CLEARLY YOU PROMISED ME
LOVE THAT WOULD ALWAYS STAY WITH ME NOW YOU'RE SINGING ME

CHORUS
NOW THAT MY BABY'S GONE IT'S HARD TO GO ON BUT WHAT CAN I
DO HOW CAN I LIVE WITHOUT YOU LORD KNOWS I'VE TRIED LORD
KNOWS THAT I'VE CRIED I JUST CAN'T GO ON NOW THAT MY
BABY'S GONE

I CAN STILL HEAR THOSE WORDS SO CLEARLY YOU PROMISED ME
LOVE THAT WOULD ALWAYS STAY WITH ME NOW YOU'RE SINGING
MEA DIFFERENT SONG WHAT ELSE IN THIS WORLD COULD GO WRONG
REPEAT CHORUS
TIME AND TIME AGAIN I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW COULD

DECEIVE IT NOW THAT YOU'RE GONE NOW THAT YOU'RE GONE IT'S
HARD TO GO ON
NOTHING'S GONNA HARM YOU NOT WHILE I'M AROUND NOTHING'S
GONNA HARM YOU NO SIR, NOT WHILE I'M AROUND
DEMONS ARE PROWLING EVERYWHERE NOWADAYS I'LL SEND THEM
HOWLING, I DON'T CARE, I'VE GOT WAYS
NO ONE'S GONNA HURT YOU NO ONE'S GONNA DARE, OTHERS CAN
DESERT YOU NOT TO WORRY, WHISTLE I'LL BE THERE
DEMONS'LL CHARM YOU WITH A SMILE FOR AWHILE BUT IN TIME
NOTHING CAN HARM YOU, NOT WHILE I'M AROUND.
BEING CLOSE AND BEING CLEVER AIN'T LIKE BEING TRUE, I
DON'T NEED TO, I WOULD NEVER HIDE A THING FROM YOU LIKE
SOME
NO ONE'S GONNA HURT YOU NO ONE'S GONNA DARE OTHERS CAN
DESERT YOU NOT A WORRY, WHISTLE I'LL BE THERE
DEMONS'LL CHARM YOU WITH A SMILE FOR AWHILE BUT IN TIME
NOTHING'S GONNA HARM YOU NOT WHILE I'M AROUND NOT WHILE
You hold me like a flower, afraid that I won't last
Then you touch me like I'm glass
But I don't shatter all that easily, if I cry it's not
for me
What you see are sweeter tears, they fall
[Chorus:]
I hear no sound but a heart, beating softer every
breath
Growing stronger every touch, I listen for the love
And hear no sound but a heart, thunder through the
shadow room
When I lie with you and listen to the love
No need to hurry now, love takes the time it needs, it
opens from a seed
To tangle two of us in twisting vines, passion grows
like roses climb
Praying that the morning sun won't rise
[Chorus:]
Say no words, I can hear your beating heart, that's all
I need to know
So say no words
But I don't shatter all that easily, if I cry it's not
for me
What you see are sweeter tears, they fall
[Chorus:]
No sound but a heart, no sound but a heart
I hear no sound but a heart - beating softer every
breath
No sound but a heart - growing stronger every touch
No sound but a heart - when I lie with you
No sound but a heart - I listen for the love and hear
I don't think I've ever felt like this
I don't think I've ever known so much happiness
I never had one touch change so much, and oh what a
feeling
This time, I'm sure that heaven must have sent you from
above
'Cause I get butterflies when you whisper sweet love
No other heart will do, oh it's only you
[Chorus:]
You take my breath away, every time you hold me, I want
to say I love you
My cup is to the top, and emotions overflowing
Baby this ain't no ordinary love, this ain't no
ordinary love
My love, you've given new meaning to romance and my
world
Would never be the same again, no more tears in the
rain
No more hidden inhibitions
It's a brand new day and it's filled with your magic
We both know that it's real and what we feel inside
No mountain's too high to climb, no river can divide
After all is said and done you're the one, I'm already
gone
chorus
I know nothing is guaranteed, but I'll take my chances
There's no need to worry, this is not ordinary love
(Instrumental break)
I love you, baby
Baby this ain't no ordinary love, this ain't no
ordinary love
chorus
No ordinary love, ain't no, ain't no, no ordinary love
No it's only you, no other heart will do
It's only you, no other heart will do
It's special, special, it's gonna be special, special
I used to think your heart was gold
But your actions got the story told
Working overtime on my heart on my mind
Boy you made a fool out of me
Why'know what to say
Tell me what I want to hear
When it's time to show
You're never there baby
I'm not the kinda girl
You can let down and kick around
When it comes to love
What you give is what you get
[Chorus:]
No deposit, no return
Boy if you want to real love
You got a lot to learn
No deposit, no return
Boy if you want to real love
You got a lot to learn
Never been naive but in you I did believe
You were the perfect one for me
Being fooled in love is a dangerous game
One hell of a price to pay
Your ego was fed, by me the misled
You only wanted to use me instead
I'm not the kinda girl
You can let down and kick around
When it comes to love
What you give is what you get
(Chorus)
You know what to say
Tell me what I want to hear
When it's time to show
You're never there baby
I'm not the kinda girl
You can let down and kick around
When it comes to love
What you give is what you get
Your ego was fed, by me the misled
You only wanted to use me instead
I'm not the kinda girl
You can let down and kick around
When it comes to love
I wake up every morning
I stumble out of bed
Stretchin' and a'yawning
Another day ahead
It seems to last forever
And time goes slowly by
'Til babe and me's together
Then it starts to fly
Cause the moment that he's with me
Time can take a flight
The moment that he's with me
Everything's alright
Night time is the right time
We make love
Then it's his and my time
We take off
My baby takes the morning train
He works from nine till five and then
He takes another home again
To find me waitin' for him
My baby takes the morning train
He works from nine till five and then
He takes another home again
To find me waitin' for him
He takes me to a movie
Or to a restaurant, to go
Slow dancing
Anything I want
Only when he's with me
I catch a light
Only when he gives me
Makes me feel alright
My baby takes the morning train
He works from nine till five and then
He takes another home again
To find me waitin' for him
All day I think of him
Dreamin' of him constantly
I'm crazy mad for him
And he's crazy mad for me
(Crazy mad for me)
When he steps off that train
I'm makin' a fool, a fight
Work all day to earn his pay
So we can play all night
My baby takes the morning train
He works from nine till five and then
He takes another home again
To find me waitin' for him
He's always on that morning train
(He works from nine till five and then)
He works so hard
(He takes another home again)
To find me waiting for him
I BUILD MY CASTLES 'TIL I RUN OUT OF AIR BREATHLESS AS A
FOOL CAN BE IF WISHES WERE FISHES I WOULDN'T CARE IF YOU
GOT YOUR HOOKS INTO ME
I'M BESIDE MYSELF IT'S GETTING ME DOWN LIKE TALKING TO A
CRAZY MAN IF I COULD ONLY TURN YOU AROUND
I'VE GOT A FEELING THAT YOU'LL UNDERSTAND
NEXT TO YOU THERE'S NO ONE I WOULD RATHER BE THAN ME NEXT
TO YOU THERE'S NO ONE I WOULD RATHER SEE THAN ME NEXT TO
LIKE A SCHOOLGIRL WITH A CANDY DREAM I NEVER KNOW WHAT TO
DO COOL AS A DOUBLE SCOOP ICE CREAM 'TIL I MELT AT THE
THOUGHT OF YOU
I'VE THOUGHT OF EVERY TRICK IN THE BOOK BUT THEY'VE ALL
BEEN TRIED BEFORE I'VE GOT WHAT IT TAKES IF I KNEW WHAT
IT TOOK
THERE'S NO ONE WHO COULD LOVE YOU MORE
NEXT TO YOU THERE'S NO ONE I WOULD RATHER BE THAN ME NEXT
TO YOU THERE'S NO ONE I WOULD RATHER SEE THAN ME NEXT TO
Never can say goodbye no, no, no, no,
I never can say goodbye
Even tho' the pain and heartache seem to follow me
where ever I go;
Tho' I tried and tried to hide my feelings they always
seem to show.
Then you try to say you're leaving me and I always have
to say no,
tell my why, is it so?
But I Never can say goodbye no, no, no, no,
I never can say goodbye
Ev'ry time I think I've had enough and start heading
for the door,
There's very strange vibrations, piercing me right to
the core. It says
Turn around you fool you know you love her more and
more.
Tell me why, is it so?
Don't wanna let you go.
I never can say goodbye girl
Don't wanna let you go.
I never can say goodbye no, no, no, no, no, no.
I never can say goodbye girl
Don't wanna let you go.
I never can say goodbye no, no, no, no, no, no.
Never can say good bye no, no, no, no,
I never can say goodbye.
I keep thinkin' that our problems soon are all gonna
work out,
But there's that same unhappy feelin', there's that
anguish, there's that
Doubt, It's the same old dizzy hang-up can't do with
you or without.
Don't wanna let you go.
I never can say goodbye no, no, no, no, no, no.
Never can say good bye no, no, no, no,

THE WAY I FEEL FOR YOU BABY WILL NEVER DISAPPEAR
YOU'RE MY DARLING LOVE YOU'RE THE ONE I LOVE
YOU'RE MY DEAR
I wake up every morning, I stumble out of bed
Stretching and a' yawning, another day ahead
It seems to last forever and time will slowly ride
'Til babe and me's together, then it starts to fly
‘Cause the moment that he's with me, time can take a flight
The moment that he's with me, everything's alright
Nighttime is the right time, we make love
Then it's his and my time, we take up
My baby takes the morning train
He works from nine 'til five and then
He takes another home again
To find me waiting for him
He takes me to a movie or to a restaurant
To go slow dancing, anything I want
Only when he's with me I catch a light
Only when he gives me, makes me feel alright
My baby takes the morning train
He works from nine 'til five and then
He takes another home again
To find me waiting for him
All day I think of him, dreaming of him constantly
I'm crazy, mad for him and he's crazy, mad for me
When he steps off the train, amazingly full of fight
Works all day to earn his pay so we can play all night
My baby takes the morning train
He works from nine 'til five and then
He takes another home again
ALL IN ALL IT'S NOT TOO BAD
UP OR DOWN OR HAPPY, SAD
'CAUSE HE'S THE BEST I'VE EVER HAD
OTHER DAYS HE'S BAD TO ME
TRIES TO HURT ME ENDLESSLY
BUT I DON'T HURT THAT EASILY
MY MOODY, MY LOVE
WHEN I WALK OUT THE DOOR
AND I'LL NEVER GO WRONG AGAIN
I GO BACK FOR MORE
'CAUSE I JUST CAN'T IGNORE
THIS LONGING I GET
OTHER DAYS HE'S GOOD TO ME
GIVES HIS LOVE SO QUIETLY
AND ALWAYS SEE THE BEST IN ME
If you take some love from me, I've got to have a

That you will give some lovin' back, lovin' back, baby
Chorus:
I want a money back guarantee
I want is signed, sealed and sent from you to me
I want a money back guarantee, just send it out special
delivery
chorus
Boy meets girl and then, we fall in love once again
It can't be like my loves of past, this time it will be
for real
We've got to make it last
chorus
The party of the first part's me, in this here contract
we've both agreed
And if the party of the second don't deliver right
This document's null and void, I'll exercise my rights
Our lives are much too short to just let nature run its
course
Help my Cupid every way we can
So baby sign right here, I know you'll understand
chorus repeats 2x
If you take some love from me, I've got to have a

That you will give some lovin' back, lovin' back, baby

CHORUS
I'M IN A STATE

SO I DON'T COME OFF LOOKING LIKE A FOOL
MY HEART IS IN MY KNEES
YOU CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT YOU DO TO ME
Waiting for the peace of the night to be shattered
I do believe my illusions are in tatters
When I see the pale moonlight in the sky
I know it's gonna come, like a hurricane hittin'
I breathe a sight 'coz it's only the beginning
When I see reflection deep in his eyes
I know, he's got the power to hit it
I don't believe what he said to me
I'm feeling like a piece of machinery
Gotta get in closer 'coz I can't see
When you're telling me the truth, I refuse to believe
Running on the ground with my innocence fading
I do believe there is something I am gaining
When I get that red hot fever inside
I wanna give it hell and behave just like a goner
I wanna stay and reduce the things I wanna
When I see the pale moonlight in the sky
I know, he's got the power to hit it
I don't believe what he said to me
I'm feeling like a piece of machinery
Gotta get in closer 'coz I can't see
When you're telling me the truth, I refuse to believe
I don't believe what he said to me
I'm feeling like a piece of machinery
Gotta get in closer 'coz I can't see
When you're telling me the truth, I refuse to believe
I don't believe what he said to me
I'm feeling like a piece of machinery
Gotta get in closer 'coz I can't see
When you're telling me the truth, I refuse to believe
I don't believe what he said to me
I'm feeling like a piece of machinery
Gotta get in closer 'coz I can't see
When you're telling me the truth, I refuse to believe

Hung around with big shots
Never knew love was in the sights
I guess I missed the target
Caught up in a different line of fire
But I know since I've been aiming
For the sweetness in your soul
Your name is on the bullet
And it's gettin' ready to explode
There's be a change inside my life
(And just wanna let you know)
I've got my finger on the trigger
Love is in control, whooo
I've got my finger on the trigger
Ah, yeah
I ain't lettin' go
Mama used to tell me
Girl, you better load your gun up right
She said ya, ya gotta come out smokin'
Hit it with your best shot every time
Well I didn't understand her
'Til you walked right into range
I saw your love at twenty paces
And I knew I'd won the game
You better raise your heart up high
(Or love will blow you right away)
I've got my finger on the trigger
Love is in control, whooo
I've got my finger on the trigger
I ain't lettin' go, whoooo
I've got my finger on the trigger
Love is in control
I've got my finger on the trigger
I ain't lettin' go
Leave off the safety catch
There ain't no risk
We're gonna have some fun, whoooo
I've got cha, love's begun
So stay with me
Until the mornin' sun, whooo
(You're superbullet number one)
[Instrumental Interlude]
There's been a change inside my life
(And I just wanna let you know)
I've got my finger on the trigger
Love is in control
I've got my finger on the trigger
I ain't lettin' go
I've got my finger on the trigger
Love is in control
I've got my finger on the trigger
I am not in love, but I'm open to persuasion
East or west, where's the best for romancing?
With a friend I could smile, but with a lover I could hold my head back
Really laugh, really laugh
Thank you, you took me dancing 'cross the floor, cheek to cheek
But with a lover I could really move, really dance, really dance, really move
If I can feel the sun in my eyes and the rain on my face, why can't I feel
Chorus:
Love and affection, sing me another love song
But this time with a little dedication, sing it, sing it
You know that's what I want, love, ooh-whoo, once more with feeling
With friends I still feel so insecure
Little darling I believe you could help me a lot
Just take my hand and take me where you will
No conversation, no wave goodnight
Just give me love, make - chorus
Give me love, give me love... love... ooh
Give me - chorus
Give me love, make love with affection, sing me another love song
But this time with a little dedication, sing it, sing it
You know that's what I like, love oo-whoo! Make love with affection
Give me love, gimme gimme gimme gimme love, ooh, give me love, give me love
FLICKING THROUGH SOME OLD 45's
I FOUND A PHOTOGRAPH OF YOU
LOOKING BACK, YOU KEPT ME ALIVE
HELP ME SURVIVE WITHOUT YOU
ISN'T IT THE WAY, YOU PUT OFF THE DAY TO SAY IT ALL
AND THEN HE FALLS IN LOVE, GIVES ALL HIS LOVE TO ANOTHER
OH-OH, IF ONLY YOU COULD SEE ME NOW, A LONER
OH-OH, IF ONLY YOU COULD SEE ME NOW, A LONER
THE WAY YOU LEFT STILL HAUNTS ME EVEN NOW
NO NOTE, NO CALL, NO GIVEN REASON
THE WAY WE WERE I WOULDN'T HAVE THOUGHT
YOU WOULD HAVE SOUGHT YOUR FREEDOM
SUDDENLY GOODBYE
PERHAPS YOU THOUGHT THAT I WOULD TRY TO TALK YOU OUT OF
WALKING OUT ON ME FOR ANOTHER
OH-OH, IF ONLY YOU COULD SEE ME NOW, A LONER
I don't wanna talk about it, do we have to bring it up again
Let sleeping dogs lie, bring the subject to an end
Your sights are on history, leave it alone, let it be
Water under the bridge, let it flow out to the sea
I said I was sorry, I know that I made a mistake
Won't you please, again, give me a break
Won't you get beyond it, I'll be straight
I'll be good, watch and see, don't go bringin' it back to me
I don't wanna talk about it, do you have to bring it up again
Let sleeping dogs lie, bring the subject to an end
You got a little letter to grow that thought, but you don't know what hurt you
Well the first time I'd done that you had to catch me in the act
I said I was sorry, I know I made a big mistake
Won't you please, again, won't you give me a break
Won't you get beyond it, I promise I'll be straight
Don't be so suspicious, don't go looking for a but
Damned can we clear the air and get back to us
I'll be good, watch and see, don't keep bringin' it back to me
(Solo)
I said I was sorry, I know that I made a mistake, oh
Again, I wish that you would give me a break
Can't you get beyond it, gimme a chance to be straight
Don't be so suspicious, show a little trust
Can we clear the air and get back to us
I'll be good, watch and see, don't keep bringin' it back to me
(Look, it happened, I can't pretend it didn't, I saw it with my own eyes)
Let sleeping dogs lie, let sleeping dogs lie
Let sleeping dogs lie
THE WAY YOU MAKE LOVE FEELS SO GOOD I HOPE MY KISSES MAKE
THAT UNDERSTOOD IF I SEEM TO BE DISTANT TONIGHT OH, I'M
SORRY, I KNOW IT AIN'T RIGHT
BABY, THERE IS SOMEONE I CAN'T RUN FROM SOMEONE FROM THE
PAST OH BABY, I GOT TO FACE IT SO HERE IS THE ONE THING I
CHORUS
LET ME GO THROUGH THIS ALONE SOME THINGS I GOT TO WORK
OUT ON MY OWN IT'S NO REFLECTION ON YOU I'M JUST A LITTLE
CONFUSED IF YOU LOVE ME BABY YOU'LL KNOW YOU'VE GOT TO
LET ME GO THROUGH THIS ALONE
I KNOW IT'S HARD FOR YOU TO BELIEVE YOU'VE GOT TO PUT
YOUR TRUST IN ME IN YOUR ARMS IS WHERE I BELONG I WILL
COME BACK TO YOU TWICE AS STRONG BABY, I'LL NEVER HURT
YOU NO I WON'T DESERT YOU SEE YOUR DREAMS ARE MINE AND
BABY THIS I PROMISE ALL THAT I NEED IS SOME TIME
REPEAT CHORUS
WHEN I LOOK IN YOUR EYES I DON'T WANT TO FEEL LIKE I HAVE
TO LIE GOT TO GO TELL SOMEBODY ELSE
Turn on the radio, play it soft and low, on a quiet road we'll drive home
And I will drive you wild with my kisses, I will drive you wild
Television on, the new heart-throb, pretty TV boys in this world
On the movie-screen, a seduction scene, and he looks at me and I breathe
And I will drive you wild with my kisses, I would drive you wild
Shadow in the moonlit dreamy mist, hold me for one steamy kiss (hot!)
Buried in my book, take a second look, read between the lines, he's all mine
And I will drive you wild with my kisses, I will drive you wild
I will drive you wild with my kisses, I will drive you wild
I will drive you wild, I will drive you wild
I will drive you wild with my kisses, I will drive you wild (repeats out)
Turn on the radio, play it soft and low, on a quiet road we'll drive home
On the movie-screen, a seduction scene, and he looks at me and I breathe
Television on, the new heart-throb, pretty TV boys in this world
Johnny was a hustler, drove a custom Continental
The girls called him daddy, down sugar, get down or run
along
Kate, good big Johnny was bein' that straight
So late, Kate had to pick up some money that should

Johnny, Johnny, the woman works your nerves, boy
Your pride Johnny, your pride got disturbed, boy
Johnny, Johnny, the woman works your nerves, boy
Your pride Johnny, Johnny
Johnny don't like Ruthers, Kate got his morter gun
Boys get the word out, find out where Kate's gone

Kate made the mistake of going to see Jerome
Johnny's boys broke down the door and shot 'em while
they were alone
Johnny, Johnny, the woman works your nerves, boy
Your pride Johnny, your pride got disturbed, boy

Oh Kate made the mistake of going to see Jerome

All my life, I've tried to do what's right. First star
I see tonight, please make my wish come true.
Why can't we join hands around one tree? Let live and
let it be.
Make Christmas last forever.
When Santa's flying in his magic sleigh,
Goes all around the world in just a day.
From the North Pole to the Southern tip,
He makes his trip with gifts to give away. Hear him
say,
"It's Christmas, all over the world tonight.
It's Christmas, all over the world."
All my life, I learned if I was good, and did
everything I should, my dreams would all come true.
I can see a special time when we join hands around one
tree,
And Christmas lasts forever.
When Santa's flying in his magic sleigh,
Goes all around the world in just a day.
From the North Pole to the Southern tip,
He makes his trip with gifts to give away. Hear him
say,
"It's Christmas, all over the world tonight.
Isn't it so, you always think you know best
Well isn't it fair and isn't it right to be constantly
for to test
Always makin' mistakes, always towin' the line
Till we throw in the towel and graciously retire
Isn't it so
Isn't it like you to go your own way
Isn't it true, isn't it a farse, the way you casually
change of heart
Go on, spend your life with strangers whose names you
won't recall
Go on, be a saint, you'll be a hero to them all
And isn't it just like you, isn't it so
(Solo)
Isn't it like me to see through all the faults
Isn't it mad, and isn't it wrong to still feel the need
to carry on
While we will see every movie, where you're the star of
the show
Sometimes I want to see all your lies and leave you with
nowhere to go
The days are okay
I watch the TV in the afternoon
If I get lonely
The sound of other voices
Other rooms are near to me
I'm not afraid
The operator
She tells the time
It's good for a laugh
There's always radio
And for a dime I can talk to God
Dial-a-prayer
Are you there?
Do you care?
Are you there?
And in the winter extra blankets for the cold
Fix the heater, getting old
I am wiser now, I know, but still as big a fool
Concerning you
I met your friend
She's very nice what can I say?
It was an accident
I never dreamed we'd meet again this way
You're looking well
I'm not afraid
You have a lovely home
Just like a picture
No, I live alone
I found it easier
You must remember how I never liked
The party life
Up all night
Lovely wife
You have a lovely wife
And in the winter extra blankets for the cold
Fix the heater, getting old
You are with her now, I know
I'll live alone forever
WHEN WE FIRST MET
YOU USE TO TAKE THE TIME
TO HOLD ME BABY
TO SHOW YOUR LOVE WAS MINE
YOU USE TO TELL ME
YOU'D NEVER LEAVE ME
BUT EVERY NIGHT I CRY MYSELF TO SLEEP
BRIDGE
IF YOU REALLY REALLY LOVE ME
YOUR AFFECTION SHOULDN'T CHANGE
COULD IT BE YOU'VE BEEN DECEIVING
STOP BELIEVING
BELIEVING IN LOVE
BELIEVING IN ME
CHORUS
THE THINGS THAT YOU DID TO GET ME
ARE THE SAME THINGS YOU DO IF YOU WANT TO KEEP ME
REPEAT CHORUS
YOU TAKE FOR GRANTED I'LL ALWAYS BE HERE
YOU THINK MY LOVIN' WILL NEVER DISAPPEAR
I NEED THE PERSON THAT I REMEMBER
TO GIVE ME THE LOVE THAT KEEPS ME SATISFIED
REPEAT BRIDGE
REPEAT CHORUS X2
DO THE SAME THINGS YOU DID
I WANT THE SAME LOVE YOU GIVE
I WANT THE SAME LOVE YOU GAVE TO ME
CAN'T YOU SEE
DO THE SAME THINGS YOU DID
I WANT THE SAME LOVE YOU GIVE
I MISS THE WAY YOU USE TO HOLD ME TIGHT
ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT
IF YOU GO AWAY ON THIS SUMMER DAY
THEN YOU MIGHT AS WELL TAKE THIS SUN AWAY
ALL THE BIRDS THAT FLEW IN A SUMMER SKY
WHEN OUR LOVE WAS NEW
AND OUR HEARTS WERE HIGH
WHEN THE DAY WAS YOUNG
AND THE NIGHT WAS LONG
AND THE MOON STOOD STILL
FOR THE NIGHTBIRD SONG
IF YOU GO AWAY
IF YOU GO AWAY
IF YOU GO AWAY
BUT IF YOU STAY
I'LL MAKE YOU A DAY
LIKE NO DAY HAS BEEN OR WILL BE AGAIN
WE'LL SAIL ON THE SUN
WE'LL RIDE ON THE RAIN
WE'LL TALK TO THE TREES
AND WORSHIP THE WIND
AND IF YOU GO, I'LL UNDERSTAND
LEAVE JUST ENOUGH LOVE
TO FILL UP MY HANDS
IF YOU GO AWAY
IF YOU GO AWAY
Don't matter baby what you might say
Nothing will change just by running away
We can't escape that's a natural fact
Act casual but there's no turning back
You fell for me as fast as I'm falling for you
The pressure's on to make the appropriate moves
But I don't move that fast
Bring out the wine if you have to
Throw me some lines to impress me
But take your time if it's meant to last
Turn out the lights if you want to
Hold me so tight that I can't breathe
Then say goodnight if it's meant to last
You know it's better takin' it slow
We'll get acquainted and see if it grows
Money can't buy what experience brings
You know the truth is I just like having a crush
Nothing around can give me the same kind of rush
But don't you move so fast
Bring out the wine if you have to
Throw me some lines to impress me
But take your time if it's meant to last
Turn out the lights if you want to
Hold me so tight that I can't breathe
Then say goodnight if it's meant to last
Don't if feel so good together
It shouldn't be that hard
If it's gonna last forever
Don't push it too far too far too far
Bring out the wine if you have to
Throw me some lines to impress me
But take your time if it's meant to last
Turn out the lights if you want to
Hold me so tight that I can't breathe
Why does your heart have to beat for me, make you want
what can never be
Why can't your eyes open up and see
It's just not me that you need in your life
[Chorus:]
So go find someone else to love tonight
Someone who won't leave the way I will
Makin' love don't always make it right
I'm not worth the hurt you're gonna feel
I'm not worth the hurt you're gonna feel
So sad, and so unfair, to want someone who doesn't really
care
You search for feelings, but they just aren't there
Anywhere, so don't let me hurt you baby
[Chorus:]
I'm not worth it, baby
[Chorus:]
I make friends, I make enemies, it doesn't matter all
that much to me
I'm not the kind who deals behind the scenes
I won't sell my soul, I'd be nothing without some
integrity
Chorus:
I wouldn't beg for water, I wouldn't beg for water
If my soul was on fire, that's the last thing I would
ever do
I wouldn't beg for water, I wouldn't beg for water
If my soul was on fire, but I'd get down on my knees
for you
I've got pride, it's not the foolish kind
Don't owe people favours, that's my peace of mind
I don't know why I deserve someone like you
But you're my one and only sole exception to all my
rules
chorus
Real love is hard to find, as holding back the sands of
time
And time can change my life as much as you
I wouldn't beg for water, I wouldn't beg for water
If my soul was on fire, you know me well enough to know
it's true
I wouldn't beg for water, I wouldn't beg for water
(If my soul was on fire), but I'd get down on my knees
Scared to go to sleep, afraid of what I might dream
It's the same uncovered nightmare
Somebody's watching me, I can feel a presence, I wake up screamin' in the dark
Can't tell imagine from reality
Skeletons in the closet, won't you stop haunting me
Chorus:
The things that go wrong in the middle of the night
Ghouls are knockin', I'm gettin' to like it, I like the fright
Things that go wrong, it's the fear of the unknown
It's a twilight zone (I like the fright)
Shivers down my spine, I hide under my pillow
I feel the room is getting colder
I'm terrified to close my eyes, afraid to move a muscle
I believe I can take it no more
Tryin' to hold on to my sanity, should I let this happen, supernaturally
chorus
(Solo)
The things that go wrong, I turn up all the lights
I'm scared of dreamin', I'm gettin' to like it, I like the fright
The things that go wrong, it's the fear of the unknown
It's a twilight zone, I like the fright
chorus
Things that go wrong, ghouls are knockin'
Things that go wrong, it's a twilight zone...
I have waited all my life for you, and now I've got to
leave you
When we're half a world apart, it's not so far, and I can
feel I'm near you
I'm not a kid, a clinging rose, we're wise enough to know
The cost of letting go
And I'll bet my life on you, so don't make promises,
'cause you don't need to
Crosses on a card, a midnight call, just to say hello,
then I'm gonna know
All the days and miles can't change at all, who you're
thinking of
I don't need your word, I only need your love
(repeats 2x)
All the days and miles can't change at all, who you're
thinking of
I don't need your word, I only need your love
The east is red tonight, she's really gonna do it right
She bought a ticket on the midnight flight, that takes
her home to you
She tried living in an ivory tower, but every night
around the midnight hour
She'd begin to feel the power, can't you feel it too?
Chorus:
Dark sunglasses and a cheap disguise, never gonna hide
those hungry eyes
Everybody knows when the girl walks by, never gonna hide
those hungry eyes
Black night like a velvet sky, the kinda evening when the
world is high
You can leave it, you can let it die, and never feel the
heat
She says, "If you wanna run away with me, if you wanna
set the lions free
We can take it to the nineth degree, down between the
sheets"
chorus
(Instrumental break)
ENDLESS NIGHTS
ALL ALONE
DAYS TURN TO WEEKS AND I WAIT
BUT YOU NEVER SHOW
THOSE TENDER WORDS
YOU WHISPER NEAR
THEY PROMISED SO MUCH
DID I HEAR WHAT I WANT TO HEAR?
ALL THE LOVE THAT WE MADE
WAS IT JUST A CHARADE
YOU'RE TEARING MY WORLD APART
CHORUS
ANYONE WITH HALF A HEART
WOULD NEVER START ME BELIEVING
THEN HURT ME BY LEAVING
ANYONE WITH HALF A HEART
WOULD NEVER START AND THEN END IT
THEY WAY YOU PRETENDED OH, NO, NO
GIVE ME ALL YOUR LVE
I DON'T NEED HALF A HEART
YOU GIVE IT UP
FOR YOUR MAN
BUT COMES A TIME WHEN
A GIRL'S GOT TO
TAKE A STAND
YOU PUT ME THROUGH
ALL YOUR MOVES
I'VE TAKEN SO MUCH
THAT I'VE GOT
NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE
EVERYBODY COULD SEE
EVERYBODY BUT ME
BELIEVING WAS THE HARDEST PART
REPEAT CHORUS
I NEED TO FIND A MAN
SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS
I'M WORTH THE TIME AND THEN
I'LL GIVE HIM ALL MY HEART
DON'T NEED SOMEONE
WHO WILL HIT AND THEN RUN
WHEN HE'S DONE MAKING LOVE TO ME
WON'T LET YOU TEAR ME APART
Giving up, giving in
I won't be no fool again
I'm giving up (I'm giving up now)
Giving up (I'm giving up now)
Giving up (I'm giving up now)

Giving up (I'm giving up now)
Giving up (I'm giving up now)
Giving up, always believing
Giving up, all your deceiving
Giving up, always excusing
Giving up, there`s no more delusion
Giving up, always regretting
Giving up, no more forgiving
Giving up, too many alibis
Giving up, all of your stupid lies
Too much giving, just no take
Guess I saw it all too late
Now I'm giving up (I'm giving up now)
Giving up (I'm giving up now)
Giving up (I'm giving up now)
Yeah (I'm giving up now)
All those lies and alibis
That you smoothed out every time
Now I'm giving up (I'm giving up now)
Giving up (I'm giving up now)
Giving up (I'm giving up now)
Giving up, always believing
Giving up, all your deceiving
Giving up, always excusing
Giving up, no more delusions
Giving up, always regretting
Giving up, no more forgiving
Giving up, too many alibis
Giving up, all of your stupid lies
Giving up
Giving up, always believing
Giving up, all your deceiving
Giving up, too many alibis
Giving up, all of your stupid lies
(Giving up, giving in)
I'm over you
(Giving up, giving in)
(Giving up, giving in)
(Giving up, giving in)
I'm giving up
(Giving up, giving in)
WHEN YOU FIND YOURSELF
LOST IN THE BLACKEST NIGHT
I'LL BE THE ONE WHO GETS YOU THROUGH IT
I'LL BE YOUR SHELTER AND YOUR LIGHT
AND WHEN YOU NEED SOMEBODY
BUT THERE'S NONE IN SIGHT
JUST CALL MY NAME AND I'LL COME RUNNING
ANY DAY, ANY NIGHT
CAUSE YOU'VE BEEN THERE FOR ME
SO MANY TIMES
WHEN MY HEART WAS TROUBLED
YOU GAVE ME PEACE OF MIND
YOU NEVER ASKED ME FOR NOTHING
BUT YOU GAVE TIL THE END
I SWEAR TO GOD
THROUGH IT ALL
YOU'VE BEEN A FRIEND
FRIENDS THEY COME
AND FRIENDS THEY GO
BUT YOU'VE STUCK RIGHT BY MY SIDE
AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW
CHORUS
BABY WE'RE FOR...FOREVER FRIENDS
IF FOREVER ENDS
I WILL BE THERE FOR YOU
FOREVER MORE...FOREVER FRIENDS
IF FOREVER ENDS
I WILL BE THERE FOR YOU
SEEMS LIKE YESTERDAY
WHEN WE FIRST MET
I WAS WORN OUT FROM LIVING
A LIFE OF REGRET
BUT YOU GAVE ME THE REASON
TO FIGHT TIL THE END
I HAVE TO SAY
ALL THE WAY
YOU'VE BEEN A FRIEND
REPEAT BRIDGE
REPEAT CHORUS
WHEN YOU FIND YOURSELF
LOST IN THE BLACKEST NIGHT
I'LL BE THE ONE WHO GET'S YOU THROUGH IT
I'LL BE YOUR SHELTER AND YOUR LIGHT
I'D CLIMB THE HIGHEST MOUNTAIN
I'D SWIM THE DEEPEST SEA
I'D DO IT ALL FOR YOU BABY
'CAUSE YOU DONE IT ALL FOR ME
For your eyes only, can see me through the night.
For your eyes only, I never need to hide.
You can see so much in me, so much in me that's new.
I never felt until I looked at you.
For your eyes only, only for you.
You'll see what no one else can see, and now I'm breaking free.
For your eyes only, only for you.
The love I know you need in me, the fantasy you've freed in me.
Only for you, only for you.
For your eyes only, the nights are never cold.
You really know me, that's all I need to know.
Maybe I'm an open book because I know you're mine,
But you won't need to read between the lines.
For your eyes only, only for you.
You see what no one else can see, and now I'm breaking free.
For your eyes only, only for you.
The passions that collide in me, the wild abandoned side of me.
I NEED A LOVE THAT GROWS I DON'T WANT IT UNLESS I KNOW
BUT WITH EACH PASSING HOUR SOMEONE, SOMEHOW WILL BE
THERE, READY TO SHARE
I NEED A LOVE THAT'S STRONG I'M SO TIRED OF BEING ALONE
BUT WILL MY LONELY HEART PLAY THE PART OF THE FOOL AGAIN,
BEFORE I BEGIN
CHORUS
FOOLISH HEART, HEAR ME CALLING STOP BEFORE YOU START
FALLING
FOOLISH HEART, HEED MY WARNING YOU'VE BEEN WRONG BEFORE
DON'T BE WRONG ANYMORE
FEELING THAT FEELING AGAIN I'M PLAYING A GAME I CAN'T WIN
LOVE'S KNOCKING ON THE DOOR OF MY HEART ONCE MORE THINK
I'LL LET HIM IN BEFORE I BEGIN
REPEAT CHORUS
FOOLISH HEART FOOLISH FOOLISH HEART YOU'VE BEEN WRONG
BEFORE
YOU PROMISED ME WHEN WE BECAME LOVERS A DREAM TO LAST
LIKE NO OTHER BUT IT TURNED TO DUST WHEN YOU TORE US
APART WITH NO WARNING YOU SHATTERED MY HEART
CHORUS
WHEN YOU WALKED AWAY I THOUGHT I WOULD NEVER BE THE SAME
BUT NOW I KNOW BETTER AND EVERY STEP AND EVERY BREATH I
TAKE I WILL RISE ABOVE THE SADNESS AND THE PAIN I'M
GROWING STRONGER LIKE A FLOWER IN THE RAIN
ON MY OWN THAT'S NOT HOW I PLANNED IT BUT HERE I AM I'M
STILL STANDING AND I KNOW NOW THE DARKNESS HAS PASSED AND
THE CHAINS THAT HELD ME ARE BROKEN AT LAST
REPEAT CHORUS
I CAN FEEL THE POWER I CAN SEE THE LIGHT I CAN HEAR MY
HEART TELLING ME IT'S GONNA BE ALRIGHT YEAH IT'S GONNA BE
ALRIGHT...OH YEAH IT'S GONNA BE ALRIGHT
AND WITH EVERY STEP AND EVERY BREATH I TAKE I WILL RISE
ABOVE THE SADNESS AND THE PAIN I'M GROWING STRONGER LIKE
Darker grows the moon, and shadows steal across the
prison of my room
I fight the sleep back from my eyes
I know I'll only be alone when I rise, I'll only be
alone when I rise
Candles flicker out, the curtains flutter and a chill
is all about
I keep reliving yesterday, time won't make my memories
fade away
My memories won't fade away
[Chorus]
When life was just a carousel, a penny in a wishing
well
A heavy-lidded summer night under the stars
Our pleasures were so easy then, I never gave a thought
to when
We'd come apart, victims of floating hearts
Love was in the air, and I believed there'd always be
enough to share
I never felt the winds of change, your love for me so
suddenly blown away
Your love for me has flown, flown away
[Chorus]
[Chorus: x 2]
We'd come apart, victims of floating hearts
SHE SLEEPS LATE IN THE MORNING
THERE'S NO ONE TO WAKE HER
CALLS HER FRIENDS FOR MOVIES IN TOWN
THERE'S NO ONE TO TAKE HER
SHE CAN RUN, FALL IN LOVE
OUT OF DESPERATION
PLAYING GAMES AND ???? SHE'S TIRED OF
THOUGH SHE KNOWS THAT SOMEWHERE THERE'S SOMEONE
WHO CAN ADD TO THE FAMILY OF ONE
HER OWN LIFE IS ALL SHE'S DEPENDING ON
SHE'S A FAMILY OF ONE
SHE PUTS THE BILLS DOWN BY THE RADIO
LEAVES THEM UNOPENED
REPAYS EVERYONE THAT SHE OWES
NO PROMISES BROKEN
NEVER L THE MAN SHE'S MET, ALWAYS DISAPPOINTED
MAKING DO IS WHERE SHE DRAWS THE LINE
REPEAT CHORUS
SHE'S HOPING
OH SHE'S HOPING
SHE CAN RUN, FALL IN LOVE
OUT OF DESPERATION
PLAYING GAMES AND ???? SHE'S TIRED OF
LIKE A FOG OUT ON THE OCEAN LIKE A VEIL ACROSS MY EYES
LIKE A MIST UPON THE HEATHER WHEN THE MOON IS ON THE RISE
WHEN THE DEVIL CAME AT MIDNIGHT WITH HIS HOST OF ALIBIS
TAKING CAPTORS IN THE DARKNESS WE WERE CAUGHT UP IN HIS
LIES
CHORUS
FALLEN ANGELS, HOLDING ON FOREVER TIME TO MAKE IT ON MORE
NIGHT HEAVEN OR HELL WONDERING HOW WE'RE EVER
FINALLY GONNA SET THINGS RIGHT
WAS IT LACK OF UNDERSTANDING FINALLY DROVE US TO THIS
PLACE IF THEY TURN THE BRIGHT LIGHTS ON US WOULD WE BEAR
IT ALL WITH GRACE WOULD WE BREAK IN LITTLE PIECES LIKE
THE WAVES UPON THE SAND IF THEY LAID IT ALL BEFORE US
WOULD IT CRUMBLE IN OUR HANDS
REPEAT CHORUS
Caught you with her, I let it slide
Egg on my face, swallowed my pride
But it's happened again, oh, it's too many times
It seems the code you live by just isn't mine, just isn't mine
You got
Chorus:
Double, double standards, you got a different point of view
You got double, double standards
The rules that you applied to me, you don't apply to you
Double, double standards, we got different states of mind
You got double, double standards
If you can do it, I can do it, there's no dividing line
Don't worry about me, I'll be alright
Go have your fun, stay out all night
But I won't be waiting, I've got someone new to meet
He treats me fifty-fifty, it's a two way street, you're a one way street
With your
chorus
(Instrumental break)
chorus repeats out
You've been down, I've been too, you've been used, I've been there too
But I never ever used someone for personal gains, no no no
Understand I'm in need, we're alone and sisters from the scene
See me standing here before you, oh with open hands, oh, oho, so
Chorus:
Don't turn your back (don't turn your back)
Don't turn your back (don't turn your back)
There'll be those changes that I know I'll have to face
Don't turn your back (don't turn your back)
Don't turn your back (don't turn your back)
Manipulator maybe we can form a pact
Shining car, I've had them too, stereo and colour TV too
Had a man who loved me more than anything, more than anything
Live my life to your laws, I'm not complaining, but now I'm out the door
We used to talk and laugh together, oh you and I, so, so
chorus
You phased me out without a warning, you knew that I'll be back and calling
Praying you forgive and help me, manipulator your a trickster
Shining car, I've had them too, stereo and colour TV too
Had a man who loved me more than anything, more than anything
Live my life to your laws, I'm not complaining, but now I'm out the door
We used to talk and laugh together, oh you and I, so, so
chorus repeats 2x...
(Instrumental break)
chorus
Don't you turn your back on me, don't you turn your back (repeats 3x)
Don't you turn your back on me, no
Don't you turn your back on me, don't you turn your back (repeats 4x)
Carry on to the other side, have some fun on the other
side
You were always trippin` on your feet
`Round the wrong way down the one way street
Since the day when you found your wings, you await too
much better things
Now you never get the chance to see, what`s been goin`
on inside of me
Don`t forget all the love I gave you on your way
Chorus:
Don`t send flowers, just give me some hours
Just a minute of your time, would really make it shine,
so think it over
Don`t send flowers, from ivory towers
I just wanna see your face, forever and always, please
think it over
Find your way through uncertainty, then one day, please
come back to me
I`ll be waiting in the weeks for you
If you find you don`t know what to do
Darling, come back to me forever, but till then
chorus
Don`t send flowers, just give me some hours
Just a minute of your time, would really make it shine,
so think it over
Don`t send flowers, don`t send flowers, don`t send
The door is closed again, it's closed on me
Here I am alone again, there's not a soul to see
I'm on my own now, it didn't turn out right
My bed is cold as ice, and you're out there in the night
Oooh, can't get you off my mind
Oooh, you know my heart is on the line and it happens
every time
[Chorus:]
Don't leave me this way, baby, don't leave me this way,
oh no
I need you more than I could ever say, do you have to
stay away so long
I thought we had it all, there was something there
But I made my first mistake when I thought you'd care
Oooh, can't get you off my mind
Oooh, you know my heart is on the line and it happens
every time
[Chorus:]
(Solo)
Don't leave me this way, baby, don't leave me this way,
oh no
Don't leave me this way, baby, don't leave me this way,
oh no
Ever since I saw your face you knocked me offa my feet
Standing there I'm swept away, my heart is skipping a
beat
You hit me with a love thing, you caught me in a
fantasy
I bet you know what love means, this holding back is
killing me
It's not the clothes you wear, the colour of your hair
That makes me fall apart, don't break my heart
There's nothing I won't do for a boy like you
I'm breaking all the rules, don't break my heart
Late at night I lie awake, I hope you're dreaming of me
Think my heart is gonna break, if you never ever notice
You come on like a cool breeze, you're flirting with my
heart's desire
You've got me down on my knees, my temperature can't
get much higher
It's not the clothes you wear, the colour of your hair
That makes me fall apart, don't break my heart
You make me slip, I lose my grip
It's gone too far, don't break my heart
There's nothing I won't do for a boy like you
I'm breaking all the rules, don't break my heart, don't
break my heart
Why can't I just throw it down, and rock it on the 1 2
I could turn your head around if you let me, if you let
(Instrumental break)
It's not the clothes you wear, the colour of your hair
That makes me fall apart, don't break my heart
I get upset, I'm a nervous wreck
Right from the start, don't break my heart
There's nothing I won't do for a boy like you
I'm breaking all the rules, don't break my heart
You make me slip, I lose my grip
It's gone too far, don't break my heart
Don't you, don't you, don't break it - don't break my
heart (repeats 4x)
I'm a nervous wreck, and I get upset
Nothin' I won't do for a boy like you, don't break my
heart
''cause you make me slip, and I lose my grip
Now it's gone too far, don't break my heart
Don't break my, don't break it, don't break my heart,
MOMMA SAID LOVE WILL COME EASY
FALLING IN LOVE WON'T BE HARD
SO DON'T BE MISLEAD BY YOUR FEELINGS
CAUSE SOME WILL JUST PLAY WITH YOUR HEART
WOULDN'T YOU KNOW SHE WAS RIGHT FOR THE 99TH TIME
SHE KNEW JUST WHAT WAS IN SIGHT
CAUSE I FELL IN LOVE WITH A MAN
WHO DOESN'T EVEN CARE
HER WORDS ARE WHAT KEPT ME ALIVE
CHORUS
THERE WILL BE DAYS LIKE THIS
THERE WILL BE NIGHTS WHEN YOU JUST CAN'T GO ON
THERE WILL BE SECONDS OF MINUTES
MINUTES OF HOURS
THAT'S WHEN YOU'VE GOT TO BE STRONG
HOLD ON, HOLD ON
DADDY SAID LOVE WAS A MYSTERY
SAID THERE ARE NO RULES FOR THE HEART
IT'S BEEN THAT WAY THROUGHOUT HISTORY
TOGETHER TODAY THEN APART
WOULDN'T YOU KNOW HE WAS RIGHT FOR THE 99TH TIME
HE KNEW JUST WHAT WAS IN SIGHT
CAUSE I GAVE MY HEART TO A MAN
WHO TREATS ME SO BAD
HIS WORDS ARE SO FRESH IN MY MIND
REPEAT CHORUS X2
HOLD ON BECAUSE GOOD LOVE
IS SO HARD TO FIND
IF YOU FIND A SPECIAL LOVE
YOU KNOW IT'S RIGHT
HOLD ON BECAUSE SWEET LOVE
LENGTHENS YOUR LIFE
YOU'LL FIND YOUR SWEET LOVE IN TIME
HOLD ON
HOLD ON
(Cry, baby)
I heard a cry at night, I heard him slam the door
There was a screech of tyres, but he'll be back for sure
Now through my apartment wall, I can hear her sweet tears startin' to fall
Chorus:
So cry, baby, wash out your heart
Hang your life out to dry and make a new start
Then came a telephone ring, it was a logical thing
I left it for a while, I let her hang up and redial
Then I picked up the telephone, 'n I said "Don't worry, honey
No no no, no no no, you're not alone"
chorus
It was a tale unwound, I'd heard it all before
And nothin' I could say would ever ease her pain
Still I picked up the telephone, 'n I said "Don't worry, honey
No no no, no no no, no no no, no no no, you're not alone"
chorus repeats out

Tonight, the stars are shining in your eyes, there's a full moon on the rise
Tonight, the planets are aligned just right
Don't let this chance slip away, don't wait till the light of the day
My heart is racing out of control, but time is standing still
Chorus:
I can't wait till tomorrow, it's such a long time, now that the moment's here
I can't wait till tomorrow, it's such a long time, now that your love is near
Tonight, a dream is just a kiss away, but you're such a mystery
Tonight, are you gonna leave or stay
You cast a spell on me, I'll be what you want me to be
Whatcha gonna do with this heart of mine
You gotta put your lovin' on the line

Hold on, come on, hold tight, so right (repeats out)
You're just too good to be true

You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank god I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothing else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak
But if you feel like I feel

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
I love you baby and if it's quite all righ

He never spends a night alone, and what he spends is never his own
His suits are all silk, made exclusively
But that doesn't mean they come off easily
He's a girl's best kept secret, girl's best kept secret
He's the world's best kept man, he's got a secret worth knowin'
Oh he's playin' make believe, he comes anytime you need
He lives on fine wine and escargot, he's a real problem, You're Jackie O.
He's a girl's best kept secret, girl's best kept secret
He's the world's best kept man
He's got a secret worth knowin', he's got a secret worth showin'
(Solo)
He's got a secret, he's got a secret
He's got a secret, he's got a secret worth knowin'
He's a girl's best kept secret, a girl's best kept secret
He's a girl's best kept secret, a girl's best kept secret
He's a girl's best kept secret, a girl's best kept secret
He's a girl's best kept secret, a girl's best kept secret
WARM NIGHTS IN THE CITY
SOMEONE'S PLAYING IN THE PARK
STREET LIGHTS SHINING PRETTY
SHADOWS ON THE LOVERS IN THE DARK
IT'S THE REASON FOR THE GETAWAY
LAY UP ON THE ROOF AND JUST FORGET ABOUT ABOUT THE DAY
CHORUS
BACK IN THE CITY
EVERYBODY MOVES TO A DIFFERENT BEAT IN THE CITY
SEE THE MOTION FEEL THE HEAT OF THE CITY
SOMETHING'S HAPPENING IN THE STREET OF THE CITY
COOL BREEZE ON THE RIVER
MAKING YOU AWARE THAT YOU'RE ALIVE
BODIES START TO SHIVER
PASSIONS START TO SHIFT TO OVERDRIVE
PICTURE FEELINGS THAT YOU CAN'T CONTROL
ELEMENTARY VOICES CALLING
DEEP INSIDE YOUR SOUL
I never knew a man who could get me feeling the way I
I was used to living life by myself
Lovers come, lovers go, anyway the wind blows, that was
alright by me
Now I need to know you care before I share completely
Chorus:
You're man enough, are you man enough
(Man enough) You're man enough, say you're man enough
(You know me by now) To stay with love when the going's
tough
(Takes a man) It takes a man to handle my love, that's
true
You're man enough, are you man enough
(Had enough) Had enough, have you had enough
(You know me by now) Playing games, playing games with
love
(Takes a man) It takes a man to handle my love for you
Rich boys, play toys, night light, city life, that was
alright by me
Since the day you came along I look at life so
differently
You're man enough, are you man enough
You're man enough, say you're man enough
(You know me by now) To stay with love when the going's
tough
(Takes a man) It takes a man to handle a love
And now, you're everything to me
Let me down, you've taken my last dream from me
This mornin' Joey had me wonderin' why he made love like he was sayin' goodbye
Tonight I found out what was goin' on
Waitin' there for me when I came home (I came home)
It was a letter from Joey, he left it on the door, he don't live here anymore
I got a letter from Joey, he said it's over and out, got to live without Joey
Joey had a kind of innocence, what he's doin' now it don't make sense
He always said I was the only one
Now I can't even tell ya where he's gone (where he's gone)
Chorus:
I got a letter from Joey, he left it on the door, he don't live here anymore
I got a letter from Joey, he said it's over and out
There can be no doubt, got to live without Joey
(Solo)
Breakin' my heart, why is he breakin' my heart, why is he
I try to sleep, but I wake up cryin'
I wanna live, but I feel like dyin', Joey
Joey was the one who made it right, like no other lover in my life
What is done can never be undone
Now my loneliness has just begun (just begun)
chorus
Joey was the one who made it right...
What is done can never be undone...
I've been away from you for far too long
Too much chances make my heart go frantic
I wanna tell you what's been goin' on
Operator, give me Trans Atlantic
I sit alone as the night goes by
Stare at the phone and wait for your reply
(chorus)
Long long distance love affair, woh
I can't find you anywhere, woh
I call you on the telephone
But you're never home
I gotta get a message to you
I wanna tell you what I'm going through
What in the world's comin' over you
How come you're acting like a total stranger
I try to reach you but I can't get through
I got this feeling that my heart's in danger
I got your letter it was perfectly clear
Havin' a ball, and wishin' you are here
(chorus)
(instrumental)
Premonition is a funny thing
a familiar kind of pain and easy
Like knowin' when the phone is gonna ring
Too many times and it'll drive you crazy
I hear your echo in the longer hall
Call out your name, but no one's there at all
Seems like eternity since I've been in your arms
A multitude of colorless hours pass
I crave the life inside you, it keeps me from harm
I only pray that it's not just another God
Eternity, I want to be with you for all eternity
Darling, you be the only one for me, together for eternity
I long to touch your warm, the world out there's so cold
Whenever we, I don't know, but I do know, baby, I want you all the time
You are the beginning, middle and end to every story told
You are the science of my mind
Eternity, I want to be, I want to be
I want to be with you for all eternity
Darling, you be the only one for me, together for eternity
And it seems like a year away that you and I were making love
One should take a life day to day
But all my dreams are made of, all my dreams are made of
Eternity, I want to be, I want to be
I want to be with you for all eternity
Darling, you be the only one for me, together for eternity
Eternity, I want to be, I want to be with you
With you, with you, with you, with you
Darling, you be the only one for me, together for eternity
For every night that you've been gone
I've lit a candle
There must be 99 around my bed
Around my bed
Lying awake all night long tears in vain
Sometimes I think that I'd be better off dead
Being without you is murder, baby
Get in a taxi, subway train
Don't make me cry these tears in vain, baby
A hundred nights without you is murder baby
A 101 just won't do, no
Why do I cry for you?
You probably found someone new
And no one deserves ya, I say
No one deserves ya like I do
Baby, you know it's true
Ooh, what we had you said was meant to be
If that was true, tell me, why'd you leave?
Baby, I wanna know
I'm sick of, I'm sick of, I'm sick of
Crying these tears in vain, baby
Why don't cha get in a taxi, subway train?
I'm going mad, baby
I'm going insane, baby, don't cha know?
101 just won't do, no, no, listen
Nothing on TV, my girlfriends bore me
They try to please me but I need you, baby
You and me, need to be together
Together physically
Why can't you come see about me?
Why can't you come see about me?
You've got to get in a taxi, subway train
Don't make me cry these tears in vain, baby
A hundred nights without you is murder, baby
A 101 just won't do, no, no just won't do
I'm in the funk, I'm in deep
You got to come, baby, see about me
You know the way I feel about you
Don't wanna spend my life without you
So isn't it time for you to show me
How badly you gonna get to know me now
You're never gonna make a Romeo-I don't want you to be
If you can find a way to let me know,I wanna know you care about me
Try a little tenderness - has it ever crossed your mind?
Try a little tenderness - I think you'll be surprised at what you find
Gotta let togetherness - prove without a doubt you're really mine
Try a little tenderness - sometime
All of your moves were made to get me
You got no further since you met me
You still won't treat me like I want you to
Every night's like a one-night stand with you
Is it really worth the waiting?-Well,I still don't know
If you think that dedication is a record on a
radio-show?
Try a little tenderness - has it ever crossed your mind?,...
Ev'ry time I see you smiling there could be a silver lining
Don't let this chance be wasted
Make me feel appreciated
Show you're thinking of me all the time,oh!
Try a little tenderness - has it ever crossed your mind...
Try a little tenderness - try a little tenderness -
Try a little tenderness - sometime.
Anytime you want to be right here
Just immagine me and all this will appear
You can keep this moment all your life
Forever near
A dream worth keeping
When your feeling lost I'll be your star
Just reach out and touch me no matter where you are
In a world where precious things are disappearing over
night
Just keep my star in sight
(Chorus)
I believe we found a dream that's worth keeping
For more than just a day
And even though the winds of change may come sweeping
It's still a dream worth keeping
(2x:So)Don't let it fade away
Maybe you'll be in some distant land
Feelin all alone, but I'll be close at hand
And every time you see a rainbow
Paint the sky behind the rain
You'll be here again
(Chorus)
Some day you might be thinking
Life has passed you by
Spirits might be sinking
Hope in short supply
That's the reason why
That's the reason whyyyyyyy
I know this dream's worth keeping
As long as it will stay
Even when you see the darkness come creepin
A dream worth keeping
