Started with a glimmer in your baby doll eyes
Worked it with your shimmer then made off with the prize
Made and broke the covenant we found ourselves in
Baptized in the waters of original sin
Chorus:
Give me an ";L"; for the loser that you'd swore I'd never be
An ";O"; as in over - just like you and me
I need a ";V"; as in victim, which is just what I am
An ";E"; for education ¡®cause I just don't understand
How could I give you the best I got
And it all still spells L.O.V.E. me not
Medicating words just added fluid to the flame
The king awoke to find he'd been a pawn in your game
Well, little miss spider, you can get out and gone
But the house is on fire, and the children are alone
Chorus
Hypnotized by the lies of a true believer
You gave me a crash course in my A.B.C. - ¡®ya's
I should've known it's all been just a game
Now that you're gone, who'll take the blame?
With this kiss oh can't you feel it
Every promise we made we just sealed it
As these hearts beat wild on a night like this
With that moon smiling down on us
Well, I figure we can't miss
With these hearts, with that moon, with this kiss
It almost takes my breath away
When we're standing this close
There's so much that I wanna say, but I think you know
I look in your angel eyes
And I wanna take my time
With this kiss, Oh can't you feel it
Every promise we made we just sealed it
As these hearts beat wild on a night like this
With that moon smiling down on us
Well, I figure we can't miss
With these hearts, with that moon, with this kiss
I was dreaming about
Love I can't live without
You were wishing on a star
Now it's perfectly clear
While we're both here
This is where forever starts
With this kiss, oh can't you feel it
Every promise we made we just sealed it
As these hearts beat wild on a night like this
With that moon smiling down on us
Well, I figure we can't miss
Though I try, I can't decide
Won't walk away, walk away from you
Whoa, from you
The tears pour down in the nights spent awake
Salvation in sleep always seems to escape
I look down at your picture in pieces thrown across my room
The future was hidden in the cards we were dealt
How could you cheat on the love that I felt?
I sink my head in my pillow, confused about what I'll do about you
Chorus:
Though I try, I can't decide
Won't walk away, walk away from you
Whoa, from you
Can't you see what you mean to me
Won't walk away, walk away from you
Whoa, from you
I can't see an end to the pain that I'm in
The alibis you handed me seemed mighty thin
Clear the lump from my throat, read your letter just one more time
I haven't been asleep for a week 'cause it seems
That I can't close my eyes, you're there in my dreams
I throw your number in the trash, confused about what I'll do about you
Chorus
Addicted to your love like a martyr is to pain
Like a sinner craves a vice and a drug need a vein
Am I giving you the blade and begging you to run me through?
Well, I'm the type of man who believes in the fight
I know what is wrong and I'd die for what's right
I'll make you understand if it's the last thing I do
Whoa, that I love you
Chorus
No, I just can't walk away, walk away from you
Though I try, I just can't walk away, walk away from you
No, I just can't walk away, (I just can't walk away)
Walk away from you
Though I try, (yeah) I just can't walk away
I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't live without you by my side now, babe
What's in a name? What have we got?
I say it's love-you say it's not
Whatever it's called, it feels the same
So what's in a name? (What's in a name?)
What's in a word? What's the big deal?
It doesn't change the way I feel
I'm just thinking out loud...I'll take the blame
So what's in a name? (Whats's in a name?)
I'm a hopeless romantic
So I'll take the chance
But it's only semantics
That's got you sitting out this dance
What's in a name that makes you afraid?
How would you describe what we just made?
You're playing with words-this ain't no game
So what's in a name? (What's in a name?)
I'm a hopeless romantic so I'll take the chance
Because it's only semantics that's got you sitting out this dance
If it looks like a kiss, feels like a kiss, what do you know?
Maybe it is...
What's in a name? What have we got?
I say it's love-you say it's not
Whatever it's called, it feels the same
So what's in a name? (What's in a name?)
I'm just thinking out loud-I'll take the blame
So what's in a name? (What's in a name?)
Aw, you're playing with words-this ain't no game
So what's in a name? (What's in a name?)
"When you guys say go, say go together."
"Okay guys, here we go."
"Get serious about havin' fun."
"One, two, three, Two, two three... okay..."
Together: "Go."
Instrumental
I'm a travelin' man
I've made a lot of stops all over the world
And in every part I own the heart
Of at least one lovely girl
I've a pretty Seniorita waiting for me
Down in old Mexico
If you're ever in Alaska stop and see
My cute little Eskimo
Oh my sweet Fraulien down in Berlin town
Makes my heart start to yearn
And my China doll down in old Hong Kong
Waits for my return
Pretty Polynesian baby over the sea
I remember the night
When we walked in the sands of the Waikiki
And I held you oh so tight
------ instrumental break ------
Oh my sweet Fraulien down in Berlin town
Makes my heart start to yearn
And my China doll down in old Hong Kong
Waits for my return
Pretty Polynesian baby over the sea
I remember the night
When we walked in the sands of the Waikiki
And I held you oh so tight
Oh, I'm a travelin' man
Yes, I'm a travelin' man
Took a bite of my memories
The love I craved always starving me
And what I'd taste turned to bittersweet
Ooh-on and on I searched so long
A flag of white I flew
'Till I found you
You never stop giving me the hunger-never gonna fade away
Oh-I never fought the spell you put me under
Now I'll never be the same
Desire burning like a flame
And my heart'll never change
You'll never stop giving me the hunger
Years alone eat you up inside (it eats you up inside)
Cause time's no feast for an appetite
You hear stories told of the hearts served cold on the plate of life (On and On and On...)
Ooh-on and on delirium
Approached as I withdrew
'Till I found you
You never stop giving me the hunger-never gonna fade away
Oh-I never fought the spell you put me under
Now I'll never be the same
Desire burning like a flame
And my heart'll never change
You'll never stop giving me the hunger
Ooh-on and on you are my one
Eternal rendezvous...
REPEAT CHORUS/OUT
You've been so disappointed
Never got what you wanted
Why Love, don't you try my love?
I've watched him tear you up girl
I think you've had enough girl
Why love, don't you try my love?
Save yourself some heartache
Save yourself some time
You'll never find a better one than mine
Try my love
Try my love?
I'm standing on the sidelines
Knowing that you should be mine
Why love, don' you try my love?
You always come to me girl
Looking for sympathy girl
Why love, don't you try my love?
Save yourself some heartache
Save yourself some time
You'll never find a better one than mine
Try my love
Try my love
Tell me why love
Don't you try my love?
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you need
It's all here for you if you believe
Darlin' try my love..hmmmm...
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you need
If you want the lifetime guarantee
Try my love
Try my love?
Tell me why love
Don't you try my love
Try my love
Try my love
Tell me why love
Don't you try my love
Too many dreams go down in flames
And too many times we love in vain
So don't you let our love go down in flames
I remember when you promised we'd last forever
And nothing could ever change your mind
(Well) Now you're cryin'
You say that the fire's dyin', well.....
It'd be easy to turn your back now
But we've got to face it somehow
*('Cuz) Too many dreams go down in flames
And too many times we love in vain
I won't be the one to say it's over
So don't you let go, girl
I know it's hard to take the pain
But we'll never get this chance again
So don't you let our love go down in flames
Please forgive me
I know that it won't be easy
Just let me make it up to you somehow
I'm tryin' to tell you I couldn't last a day without you
So let's put our hearts together
'Cuz baby it's now or never
(*Repeat)
There's so much I still have to give you
We've got to find the magic to keep our love alive
Well, I've been waitin' ever since eight
Guess my baby's got another date
Stood up, broken-hearted, again
I'll bet she's out havin' a ball
Not even thinkin' of me at all
Stood up, broken-hearted, again
Well, I know just what I oughta do
I oughta find somebody new
But, baby, I couldn't forget about you
Stood up, broken-hearted, again
--instrumental break--
Why must I always be the one
Left behind never havin' any fun?
Stood up, broken-hearted, again
But I guess I'll go on bein' a fool
Sittin' around just waitin' for you
Stood up, broken-hearted, again
Well, I know just what I oughta do
I oughta find somebody new
But, baby, I couldn't forget about you
Stood up, broken-hearted, again
Stood up, broken-hearted, again
Stood up, broken-hearted, again
You kissed your loved one good-bye
On a cold, foggy day
I guess you didn't know that I'd go so far away
You knew there'd come a time
When the road would call my name
And we'd have to put a hold on
All those dreams we made
So take my heart - I've already taken yours
This wound won't heal
I'm alone and cold inside -
Is there a moment we haven't shared
Two hearts drawn as one -
Now I stare at an empty chair
You called and said last night
I've been waiting for your kiss
Still I lie here at night as I think of the things I miss
So take my heart - I've already taken yours
This wound won't heal
Tell me - do you miss me like I miss you girl?
Hold me - in your heart - I'll never be lost again
Tell me - do you miss me like I miss you girl?
Hold me - in your heart - I'll never be lost again
Distance keeps burning inside of me
I need you with me - oh girl, tell me
You kissed your loved one good-bye
On a cold, foggy day
I guess you didn't know that I'd go so far away
Tell me - do you miss me like I miss you girl?
Hold me - in your heart - I'll never be lost again
Tell me - do you miss me like I miss you girl?
Hold me - in your heart - In your heart why don't you tell me
Tell me - you know, I didn't wanna leave you girl
Hold me - in your heart, I've already taken yours
Tell me - won't you tell me, do you miss me
Do you miss me like I miss you girl?
Hold me -I'll never - I'll never be lost again
Who's that on my radio?
Who's that on my new TV?
Who's that on my stereo?
Sheila is invading me
She Sheila's in my mind
The way she looks at me she might as well be blind
She Sheila's in my head
And when I talk to her I lie alone in bed
Pictures all around me
Pictures of her everywhere
She's the picture of my dreams
Picture perfect picture stare
She Sheila's in my mind
The way she looks at me she might as well be blind
She Sheila's in my head
An when I talk to her I lie alone in bed
Like a bat out of hell she came out of nowhere
A schoolboy's sticky sweet dream
And every woman's nightmare
She'll bring a grown man to his knees
And him cry for mercy
He could beg for her sweet wine
But she'd leave him thirsty
If you only knew what you're missing
You'd walk through fire for me
I try to tell you baby - you won't listen
Well, that's O.K. by me cause
Chorus:
Sooner or later I'm making you mine
You're gonna love me in a matter of time
There's no use runnin' babe, you just can't hide
¡®Cause sooner or later you're mine
Decided I'd had enough of walking the wire
So I finally found the guts to admit my desire
When I confessed
How much I craved her love and affection
I was paralyzed by the shock of a cold rejection
I'd give all that I have to own you
But you don't care I'm alive
You won't surrender - I can't control you
Well, here's the bottom line
Chorus
I've been looking for a lover who can satisfy me
Come and slide under the covers
I've got you where I want you
And you got me where you want me
Baby, tell me - do you like what you see?
Sooner or later I'm making you mine
¡®Cause I'm too full of you to swallow my pride
You can't tell me you don't want to feel it inside
¡®Cause sooner or later you're mine
I was hangin' with my buddies at the No-tell Motel bar
Solvin' every problem in the world with a drink and an imitation Cuban cigar.
When in walked an angel built for sin,
On the arm of somethin' that the cat drug in...
M- hmm, she's way too cute for him.
That boy's gotta have something
But it's nothin' I can see
Is it a Swiss account? a fancy car?
Or a well-heeled family tree?
Don't wanna get too down on that poor li'l guy
who must be Eddie Van Halen in a great disguise
'Cause a girl like that can name her who or when
She's way too cute for him
What's he got that I ain't got?
I'm ready and willin' to learn
Just give me one more shot 'cause like it or not
Right now he's got her!
Is he some kind of surgeon imported from France?
Does he move like Michael Jackson when she gets him to dance?
Does he sing like Sinatra?
Does he spend like Trump?
What's a queen like that doin' with Forest Gump?
Does he always take the checker at the Indy 5?
Hold some kind of record as the oldest alive?
Must be CIA, or have some high powered friends
She's way too cute for him
Somebody give me a clue, help me understand
That girl's way too cute for him!
Johnny played the rebel - huntin' for a cause
Sh-sh-sh-short fuse fused dynamite hungry for a spark - ooh yeah
His 9 mil. Loaded with borrowed time
Bad boy swore he couldn't die
¡®Till he faced a man a little bit quicker on the draw
He tried to steal his destiny
He bragged of immortality
Now he ain't that tough six feet deep
Chorus:
Short rides on the glory train
Through dead end streets of no escape
Lyin' in the bed you made on a ship
That came in too late
You're running out of time
You're running out of time
Jenny came home from the ritzy side of town
D - drove her mommy's Benz -
Lived in Daddy's great big house - ooh yeah
She hawked her gold to feed the spike
A great escape on the pony ride
¡®Cuz Mom and Dad wouldn't let their little baby out
When China White's your lyin' friend
You've sold you soul when the party ends
And you're dancing blind on the razor's edge
Chorus
You and me are victims of our blood
Haunted by the ghosts of who we loved
Our parents sing that same old song
";Where the Hell did we go wrong?";
Just take a look in the mirror Mom and Dad!
Don't look back it burns your eyes
You can't win if you don't try
Only you control your life
Chorus
Don't you know you're runnin' out of time?
Wake up! Wake up! God dammit wake up!
You're running out of time
You're running out of time
You're running out of time time time
I can't remember when I felt this good
I'm crossin' my fingers
I'm knockin' on wood
Feeling richer than a poor boy should
It's more than I deserve, and all because of her
(Cause)
She loves me more than words can say
And it just gets better every day
I thank the good Lord every night
I guess I finally got it right
She loves me
Feel like a rookie in a hometown game
Who made the winning catch
And saved the day
Lately everything's been going my way
I want everyone to know I'm really on a roll
(Cause)
She loves me more than words can say
And it just gets better every day
I thank the good Lord every night
I guess I finally got it right
She loves me
She's an extraordinary girl
(tell us about it-tell us all about it!)
And I just want to tell the world
(tell us about it-scream and shout it!)
She loves me more than words can say
And it just gets better every day
I thank the good Lord every night
I guess I finally got it right
She loves me
Oh-she loves me
Ooh Hoo Hoo
Oh-she loves me
She loves me more than words can say
Yeah, one of the things about you that drives me crazy
Is the way you drive me crazy every day
Yeah, it makes me mad about you
I don't know what I'd do without you
And that's one of the things about you that drives me crazy
Yeah, one of the things about you that makes me love you
Is the way I love you more as time goes by
Yeah, the feeling keeps getting stronger
It just keeps lasting longer
And that's one of the things about you that makes me love you
Don't know much about rocket science
Don't know much about chemistry
I can't explain it-can't define it
All I know is I'm out of this world when you kiss me
(you) send me into orbit now 5,4,3,2,
One of the things about you and me together
Is the way we go together oh so well
Yeah, it's just like a sweet duet
Ever since the day we met
And that's one of the things about you and me together
Don't know much about rocket science
Don't know much about chemistry
I can't explain it-can't define it
All I know is I'm out of this world when you kiss me
(you) send me into orbit now 5,4,3,2
Yeah, one of the things about you that drives me crazy
Is the way you drive me crazy every day
Yeah, it makes me mad about you
I don't know what I'd do without you
And that's one of the things about you that drives me crazy
That's one of the things about you that makes me love you
That's one of the things about you and me together

Eric Hillard Nelson/Matthew & Gunnar Nelson
Hello my friend, it sure has been awhile
I don't know where the time has gone
But I've really missed your smile
It's been too long
I got so much to say
That I don't know where to start
Ever since we went our separate ways
There's been a big hole in my heart
(But) as I recall, it was you that said goodbye
Now you're asking me to give it one more try
Well only time will tell
If you're gonna stand beside me through both heaven and hell
I wanna know that you're behind me
But only time will tell
I what we have together's gonna last forever more
And so my friend, I hope you understand
It's hard to put my trust in you
'Cause I'm afraid you'll leave again
I want to believe, that you've finally seen the light
That you've missed my love and you want to make it right
But only time will tell
If you're gonna stand beside me through both heaven and hell
I wanna know that you're behind me
But only time will tell
If what we have together's gonna last forever more
I got no way of knowing
What the future's gonna bring
So I'll just listen to my heart
Cause it's never lied to me
And what is meant to be
Only time will tell
If you're gonna stand beside me
Through both heaven and hell
I wanna know that you're behind me
But only time will tell
If what we have together's gonna last forever
Time will tell
Do you believe in me
Time will tell
If we're gonna be together
Only time will tell
I want a love to last forever
Time will tell
Only time will tell
Can you hear me? Are you there?
I need a friend to lend an ear
A million miles on my bones
I'm a child but I feel so old
Whoa I, I once had faith that guided me
But I, I've paid a price for my beliefs
Chorus:
Now I need some peace on earth
Can you heal my heartache? Can you save my soul?
I'm loking for some peace on earth
I swear once I've found you, I'll never let you go
Through the years, I've walked alone
Guess I've finally reached the end of my road
Faced the fears, felt the rage
Up to now I've lived my life a crying clown inside a cage
Whoa I, I think I've lost my will to be
But I, I hear you calling out to me
Chorus 2:
Will you be my peace on earth?
Will you heal my heartache, will you save my soul?
I'm looking for peace on earth
I swear once I've found you, I'll never let you go
Bridge:
I'd give all I've got just to find
Somebody to love me, to stay by my side
Then I'd know that come heaven or hell
Everything's gonna be alright
Chorus 3:
You are my peace on earth
You healed my heartache, saved my soul
You've given me peace on earth
And now that I've found you I won't let you go
You are my peace on earth, peace on earth
You give me peace on earth, I wanted you to know
That it's thanks to you that I'm finally coming home
Come on over, now don't be shy
All your stars and your planets are 'bout to align
Why not surrender to the gleam in my eyes?
Come and get it, before it dies
Afraid to take a chance
Been victimized by circumstance
Gather up your fears and let 'em go
That's over now, that's over now
Chorus:
I'll be your friend when you need one to turn to
Call out my name and I'll always be there
Wherever you go just remember I love you
Whenever you start to feel the pain
I'm only a moment away
Dust off the ashes and take my hand
I will pull you away from the quick in the sand
Tonight is the night we reach the promised land
When you whisper that I'm your man
You're clinging to the past
Scared to go too far too fast
Nothing's gonna change 'till you let go
I'll show you how, I'll show you how
Chorus
That's over now, that's over now
Yeah!!
Chorus (X2)
Yes, my bucket's got a hole in it
Yes, my bucket's got a hole in it
Yes, my bucket's got a hole in it
I can't buy no beer
Well, I went upon a mountain
I looked down in the sea
I seen the crowds and the fishes
Doing the be bop beep
Cause my bucket's got a hole in it
Yes, my bucket's got a hole in it
Yes, my bucket's got a hole in it
I can't buy no beer
Well, I'm standing on the corner
With a bucket in my hand
I'm a waitin' for a woman
That ain't got no man
Cause my bucket's got a hole in it
Yes, my bucket's got a hole in it
Yes, my bucket's got a hole in it
I can't buy no beer
Well, me and my baby
We bought a Ford
And now we sit together
On the running board
Cause my bucket's got a hole in it
Yes, my bucket's got a hole in it
Yes, my bucket's got a hole in it
I can't buy no beer
Life
Will go on without me
Take it and you'll see it doesn't matter
Life
I know what your game is
You take it and trade it for another
Life
Before you're over
I want something to show for all my trouble
Time come on in
I want you back again
Where're you goin' now?
I thought you'd know somehow...
Life
If you keep goin'
I'll try to throw in a little love
Life
I can't do without you
There's something about you that keeps me goin'
Life
I don't wanna stop now
I've been through so much now because of you
Tell me life...what are you here for?
Tell me life...I wanna know more
Tell me life...what are we here for?
At a crossroads in London as the winter winds whipped through my hair
I noticed everyone stared at the ground and passed by like I wasn't there
I watched lonely people keep all to themselves full of fear in the worlds they had made
I swore then that I'd make a difference I promised that I'd make a change
Is that how it is?
Is that how it is, baby, with you?
Is that how you want it to be?
'Cause that's how it is with me
As I walked past a churchyard an old man on his knees in the street
Said, ";Son, do you think you could help me? 'Cause I'm cold and I'd like something to eat.";
But I could tell by the look in his eyes that he also needed a friend
So I smiled and I sat down beside him and he wept as I held his hand
Is that how it is?
Is that how it is, baby, with you?
Is that how you want it to be?
'Cause that's how it is with me
In the dark of night when you're feeling that there's no hope in sight
Do you dream of the world that we could make if we'd all just give instead of take?
We can open our hearts for our children¡¯s' sake
We can turn things around before it's too late
Baby, that's how it is with me
Do you wish to see the day when our love will set us free and together we all can live in peace?
Do you keep your faith when others just shake their heads and say that people will always stay the same?
Does your heart begin to break when you think of the world that we could make if we'd all just give instead of take?
In the dark of night when you're feeling that there's no hope in sight do you dream someday soon we'll see the light?
Well I've got a feeling
That I'm gonna get you
Say I've got a little feeling
That it won't be long
Till I hold you in my arms and, baby,
that's where you belong
Well I've got a feeling
That you think about me
Well I've got a little feeling
and I hope it's true
'Cause nobody else could want you so
and love you like I do
Well I got a feeling
That our love was meant to be
And there's a whole wild world of happiness
Just waitin' for you and me
So why don't you tell me
That you love me only
'Cause I got a feeling
that you really do
And I never had this feeling
You passed me by one sunny day
Flashed those big brown eyes my way
And oo I wanted you forever more
Now I'm not one that gets around
I swear my feet stuck to the ground
And though I never did meet you before
Chorus:
I said ";Hello Mary Lou
Goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou
I'm so in love with you
I knew Mary Lou
We'd never part
So Hello Mary Lou
Goodbye heart";
I saw your lips I heard your voice
believe me I just had no choice
Wild horses couldn't make me stay away
I thought about a moonlit night
My arms about good an' tight
That's all I had to see for me to say
Chorus
I went to a garden party to reminisce with my old friends
A chance to share old memories and play our songs again
When I got to the garden party, they all knew my name
No one recognized me, I didn't look the same
CHORUS
But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well.
You see, ya can't please everyone, so ya got to please yourself
People came from miles around, everyone was there
Yoko brought her walrus, there was magic in the air
'n' over in the corner, much to my surprise
Mr. Hughes hid in Dylan's shoes wearing his disguise
CHORUS
lott-in-dah-dah-dah, lot-in-dah-dah-dah
Played them all the old songs, thought that's why they came
No one heard the music, we didn't look the same
I said hello to ";Mary Lou";, she belongs to me
When I sang a song about a honky-tonk, it was time to leave
CHORUS
lot-dah-dah-dah (lot-dah-dah-dah)
lot-in-dah-dah-dah
Someone opened up a closet door and out stepped Johnny B. Goode
Playing guitar like a-ringin' a bell and lookin' like he should
If you gotta play at garden parties, I wish you a lotta luck
But if memories were all I sang, I rather drive a truck
CHORUS
lot-dah-dah-dah (lot-dah-dah-dah)
lot-in-dah-dah-dah
'n' it's all right now, learned my lesson well
You see, ya can't please everyone, so you got to please yourself
Transcribed by Robin Hood
What you get is what you see
With a small town home grown boy like me
My father's father's blood runs deep as his dreams that I still hold dear
And hard days work- yeah, it gives me pride
And my words are the fuel for the fire inside
Of the heart that she outgrew like this town here
Well, if you see my girl in Austin,
Tell her I miss what we lost when
she walked out the door to return no more
to the life that she belongs
and if she's there in Amarillo
'Bout that note beneath my pillow¡
Why'd I have to read what I could not see about my ways that rubbed her wrong
when she was goin', goin', gone?
A heartland girl with uptown eyes
My old fashioned views missed her disguise
I'd have never guessed she'd have pawned our love for a pair of walking shoes
Well, I hope those big plans all work out
And she makes her name- but I have no doubt
She'll one day see what it's all about
Is this life she swore to lose
Well, if you see my girl in Austin,
Tell her I miss what we lost when
she walked out the door to return no more
to the life that she belongs
and if she's there in Amarillo
'Bout that note beneath my pillow¡
Why'd I have to read what I could not see about my ways that rubbed her wrong
when she was goin', goin', gone?
(Repeat)
I was a fool from the word go...
";Go on and go";, I had to say
";Don't let the screen door hit you as you walk away,
Go Ahead and make your brand new life.
I won't lose any sleep without you in mine.";
Oh, what I wouldn't give to take it all back
I'd never ever say something crazy like that
I'd get down on my knees and tell you how I need you so
Oh, I was a fool from the word go
";Go on and take our pictures down off the wall
(off the, off the, off the wall)
And pack up your cat-I won't miss that at all
Well, go ahead and take the dreams that we shared
You never look back-well, see if I care.";
Oh, what I wouldn't give to take it all back
I'd never ever say something crazy like that
I'd get down on my knees and tell you how I need you so
Oh, I was a fool from the word go
";So go on and go";, I heard myself say
In a moment of pride my world slipped away
Oh, what I wouldn't give to take it all back
I'd never ever say something crazy like that
I'd get down on my knees and tell you how I need you so
Oh, I was fool from the word go
From the word go...

You can't deny it
It's the same empty feeling, day after day
You've been waiting forever
For someone to come and take you away
I understand how it feels to be lonely
Like it's you against the world
But if you come take my hand we can face it together
Oh I give you my word
I can take you to heaven
Come along for the ride
Let me fill you up with love tonight
Give you all of my love
Fill you up and make you come alive
I know you feel like giving up
But now, is the time
To open up your wings and fly high
So let me fill you up with love tonight
I know it ain't easy
It seems out of reach and beyond your control
But don't you give up on dreaming
Don't settle for less when you want so much more
Open your eyes up to what you've been missing
Life's been passing you by
But if you follow your heart it will all come together
So stop your crying
Oh I can lead you to heave n
Come along for the ride
Let me fill you up with love tonight
Give you all of my love
Fill you up and make you come alive
I know you feel like giving up
But now, is the time
To open up your wings and fly high
So let me fill you up with love tonight
I know it ain't easy
It seems out of reach and beyond your control
But don't you give up on dreaming
Don't settle for less when you want so much more
Open your eyes up to what you've been missing
Life's been passing you by
But if you follow your heart it will all come together
So stop your crying
Oh I can lead you to heave n
Desert messiah ain't nothing new - we all know his kind
Another self-appointed prophet with world domination
On his puny mind
Whispered scenes behind closed doors
How does one make the people think
His greed's worth dying for?
Hey, let's start a holy war!!!
Chorus:
Do you believe in religion?
I believe it's your decision
Do you think it makes a difference?
Is it just some man-made vision?
Do you believe in religion?
I believe it's your decision
Do you think it makes a difference?
Do you really care any way?
Midnight preacher calls me a sinner
And maybe he's right
He said he's just used the hot line
And God's got a message for me
He says
He condemns my situation if I wanna find salvation
It's time to phone in my donation as a vow of faith
He tells me that the church has got an image to protect
And god wants me to give - give till it hurts
Stayed me hand - it's just as well
They caught him using God's tax-free cash
To feed the kitty in some cheap motel
And now he's going to hell
Chorus
(Solo)
Chorus
It's a good day for a sad song
'Cause the rain is fallin' and someone is saying ";Good-bye";
Close the door when you leave
'Cause there's a cold wind blowin' and it's bringin' tears to my eyes
After you go, I guess I'll never know where you've run
Will you try to disguise how you're dyin inside?
Well, then you'll be the only one
Chorus:
Oh, I will get over you someday
Though, I never loved you anyway
And when you're gone my whole world won't fall apart
I swear, cross my broken heart
Word gets 'round in this small talk town
But I'll stand my ground and I won't even ask where you've gone to
When they play a song 'bout a love gone wrong
And you see me cryin', well, that don't mean I miss you
When I said I was crazy for you I was out of my mind
When the smokes clears I'll see it was not meant to be
Yeah, I will be just fine
Chorus
By the second Tuesday of never I promise
That I will be just fine
Oh, yes, I will
Chorus
Matthew & Gunnar Nelson/Marc Tanner
Here she comes, just like an angel
Seems like forever that she's been on my mind
But nothing has changed
She thinks I'm a waste of her time
There she goes, she don't know what she's missing
Can't she see I'll never give up the fight
I'll do all I can till she understands my desire
I'm on the outside lookin in
Let me into your heart - oh
There's nothing on earth that
Should keep up apart
I can't live without your love and affection
I can't face another night on my own
I'd give up my pride to same me from being alone
'Cause I can't live without your love
So I wait, here for an answer
And wonder if tomorrow will be like yesterday
I'll keep holding on
But I can't go on living this way
I've been on the outside looking in
Bring these tears to an end - oh
I realize there's no use for me to pretend
Oh yeah
I can't live without your love and affection
I can't face another night on my own
I'd give up my pride to save me from being alone
'Cause I can't live without your love
For your love...I'd put my arms around you
For your love...and find the strength to tell you
Chorus:
I can't live without your love and affection
I just can't go on this way anymore
As hard as I try there's on thing that I know for sure
I can't live without your love
So you think you'll take another piece of me
To satisfy you're intellectual needs?
(Do you want action?)
Well, I think it's time ¡®cause you've been pushing me
You'd better recognize my superiority
Liar (liar) Liar (liar) - You know you believe it
Higher (higher) Higher (higher) - ¡®cause I'm the main man
Chorus:
And that's why everyone wants a piece of the action
Everybody needs the main attraction
I've got what everybody needs -
Satisfaction guaranteed
Everybody wants a piece of the action
Well, I was suicidal ¡®cause you was my idol
Baby, baby, baby bring me to your knees
Well there was a time I would've walked the line
But you bled me dry with your insatiable greed
Liar (liar) Liar (liar) - You know you believe it
Higher (higher) Higher (higher) - ¡®cause I'm the main man
Chorus
Do you want (do you want?)
Do you want action
Everybody wants, everybody needs
Everybody wants, everybody bleeds
Let's go!
Chorus
After so many years tryin' to set it free
The pain seems to fade but it never leaves
The memories haunt me and I wish they'd let me be
I gambled on love and it tore me apart
Be still, be still, be still, my broken heart
Be still my heart!
I wasn't born wise but I learned this much
Though you took all I gave it was never enough
There was a time I'd have died for your soul, your strength, your touch
But I'll leave it behind, try to make a new start
Be still, be still, be still, my broken heart
Let the pain fade away
It was the heat of the moment in the heart of a dream
You lit fire to my soul and you said you'd never leave
It's tearin' me up, baby, where have you been?
Oh, please, oh please, oh please! Please just understand me
And what this nonsense means. Oh, yeah!
I gave up my dreams to let you inside
Boy, you sure took my momma;s little boy for a ride
I'll never know how I coulda ben so blind
Well, I gambled on love and it tore me apart
Oh! Be still, be still, be still, my broken heart
Be still, be still, be still, my broken heart
Be still my heart! My broken heart
Let the pain fade away!
Just a small town floozy a 'name' a Backwater Lucy,
Drivin' me down and down and down and down (be still my heart) Oh Yeah!!
That's what I get for bein' lazy, woman's drivin' me crazy
Drivin' me down and down and down and down and down (be still my heart)
Look in the mirror girl, by now you should know
You¡¯re living in a fantasy, and you can¡¯t let go
He never really loved you from the start
The only thing he ever gave you was a broken heart
Don¡¯t be afraid to lose what was never meant to be
After the rain washes away the tears
And all the pain
Only after the rain
Can you live again
I know the emptiness you feel inside
You¡¯re thinking if you break away, you¡¯ll never survive
I¡¯m waiting as my heart beats just for you
Come on and take my hand and I¡¯ll pull you through
But things will never change until you want them to
After the rain washes away the tears
And all the pain
Only after the rain
Can you live again
You¡¯ll see the sun appear to light the way
Only after the rain
Can you hope to find true love again
He never really loved you from the start
The only thing he ever gave you was a broken heart
Come on and take my hand and I¡¯ll pull you through
You know the time has come for you to face the truth
After the rain washes away the tears
And all the pain
Only after the rain
Can you live again
You¡¯ll see the sun appear to light the way
Only after the rain
Can you hope to find true love again
After the rain
I've opened your eyes but you still won't see
Why a girl like you should want a boy like me
You can try but you'll fail to derail my one track mind
I wasn't raised to come on like this
Unsatisfied with your goodnight kissin' - listen, I've been cool
But baby, it's high time we went to school
Ooh - you talk too much - just give it a rest
After all this time, it doesn't make much sense
That I gotta take your word we ain't in no rush
One more night and a lame excuse
Ain't gonna change my mind - no, it ain't no use
I give you my love and I don't get your magic touch
Ooh - you talk too much
Oil and water would be more right
The limits we have are like fire and ice
Your daddy must be so proud you draw that line
If I were a picture, then you'd be the neg
But know that I ain't too prideful
To beg you on one bended knee
¡®Till what I get is more what I've seen
Ooh - you talk too much - just give it a rest
After all this time, it doesn't make much sense
That I gotta take your word we ain't in no rush
One more night and a lame excuse
Ain't gonna change my mind - no, it ain't no use
I'm gonna explode if you don't feel my crush
Ooh - you talk too much
Tryin' to recover ¡®cuz you saw it my way
Walkin' two feet off the ground on a hard night's day
(I was) baskin' in the glow so it caught me unaware
When you met me at the door sayin', ";Stop right there!";
Ooh - you talk too much - just give it a rest
After all this time, it doesn't make much sense
Didn't you make me a deal when I called your bluff?
I wasn't foolin' ¡®bout (our) foolin' around
Why'd you open your mouth man? It's all over town!
You had to go and blow what could've been so plush
Ooh - you talk too much
You're a mattress - you're a bees nest
You are heroin in an armored vest
You're a plane crash - you are white trash
You're a rubber arrow through my chest
So why oh why am I still in love with you?
You're a cartoon - you're a bastard moon
You're the feathered throat that brought Rome to ruin
You're a sunburn - you are milk turned
You were Sunday - schooled, but you never learned
So why oh why am I still in love with you?
And we danced to the sounds of Taj Mahal
And then the alarm clock rang and shook me from the ball
You're a used car - you're a porn star
You're a drunken sailor's wet cigar
So why oh why am I still in love with you?
You're an earthquake - you're a toothache
You're an angry nurse on a coffee break
So why oh why am I still in love with you?
Why oh why am I still in love with you? Why?
A painted promise - A smokescreen dream
It wasn't all we thought it'd be
A fortune made - when we betrayed
The faith we'd placed in our blind belief
We were once close as blood
Yeah...
Locked inside - pride's prison cells
Separately suffering for our sins
Well, the seasons changed - but the chill remains
A karmic debt keeps us siamese twins
Until it's said, nothing's done
Chorus:
The silence is broken
And that we have spoken
Don't turn away
I know we can change
A quickening - A bitter end
Come what may, something must be said
This reckoning - Should be deafening
Instead of pregnant tranquility
The rebirth has begun
Chorus
Emancipation lives and breathes
In the words one should but never speaks
Communication can end this speculation
And if we fall then at least we'll go down screaming!
Broken! The silence is broken!
¡®Till it's said, nothing's done! The silence is broken!
Another lonely night
I can't fight this feeling
Lying in my cold, dark room alone
In a dream I see your face
You say you're never leaving
Then I wake up to find you're gone
Now, I know it's true
That only you can stop these
Chorus:
Tears of pain running down my face
I'll never be the same
Will I make it through another night?
You left and tore my soul apart
Now, nothing else remains but tears of pain
Here in my memories
We will last forever
It seems so close I can almost taste your love
If I must go down this endless road with you
I'll just lose control
And I'd break every rule
For one more chance at you
¡®Cause only you can stop these
Chorus
Whoa, tears of pain running down my face
I'll never be the same
Will I make it through another night?
The emptiness still lingers on
I guess that I'm to blame
When you left it tore my soul apart
Now, nothing else remains but tears of pain
A place like this - a girl like you
Is all I need to get me through
I'm hypnotized when you take the stage
Table dance my blues away
From Officer Easy to Little Bo Peep
She's a master of disguise
She's sugar and spice, she's naughty and nice
And she can read my dirty mind
Chorus:
C'mon little honey, walk this way
Strut your stuff in that lingerie
That's right, pretty momma
Give me your sunset strip
Tease me, please me, help me unwind
And I'll feed your pretty kitty one buck at a time
Bump it - grind it - blow me a kiss
I'm at your mercy when you do that sunset strip
You're a feast for hungry eyes
You could make a grown man cry
You're in control of every man
Your every wish is my command
If Calamity Jane doesn't drive me insane
Nurse Nympho is sure to please
Then Little Annie Fannie's gonna rock me to my knees
Chorus
Keep this up and I'll blow my lid
You make me explode when you do that sunset strip
Your sunset strip has got me goin' crazy
(Take it off!!!)
Oh yeah - it's just another night out with the boys
Oh baby - bring on those dancing girls
Yeah - we're all gonna leave here broke, drunk, and horny
Oh, I love you, I love you, I love you!
Chorus
I've been around the world and you're the best there is
You make me feel like a king
When you're queen of the sunset strip
(Take it off!!!)
The sunset strip has got me goin' crazy! (Take it off!!!)
It was right from the start
So I surrendered the key to my heart
I was sure we couldn't miss
But now I taste something strange in your kiss
People are talkin' lately sayin' you've been messin' around
I don't wanna believe it baby, but it's all over town
Chorus:
They tell me you've got the devil in your soul
Say it isn't so that I'm the very last to know
Say it isn't true about you
Before I say we're through
I wanna hear it from your point of view
¡®Cause I would die if I had to let you go
Say it isn't so
I recall the love that we made
It was hot - like a hundred degrees in the shade
Tell me now - what do I do
If I find that you lied when I trusted in you?
Did you try to deceive me? Did you baby?
Or are you misunderstood?
You could sell me a story - maybe
But you better make it good
Chorus
(Come here and look me in the eye)
(Oh, no, no, you can't fool me, baby)
You can't hide your lyin' eyes - I gotta big surprise for you
(Girl you're gonna get it)
I found out what you're all about - you can scream and shout
(But I think you might regret it)
I'm gonna give you one more chance
To tell your tale - confess the past
So watch your step, ¡®cause it might be your last
They tell me you've got the devil in your soul
Say it isn't so that I'm the very last to know
Say it isn't true about you
Before I say we're through
I wanna hear it- baby, I swear it that
I would die if I had to let you go
Say it isn't so
(Oh no, no!)
Say it isn't so
Say it isn't so
Was the night - I was young
When my father called for his first born son
Took me place at his side
While this great chief raged in the fire light
We'd reclaim days of old
If the tribe would do what his dream foretold
Praying to the vision of the promised land
Swaying to the rhythm of the drums
We were pledging our allegiance to Wevoka's plan
When the shots rang out, there soldiers all around
And their cannons put an end to our holy singin' of
(OH) The first cowboys were doing the Ghostdance singin'
(OH) The first cowboys were doing the Ghostdance
Hypnotized by my tale
Generations learn of the Great Betrayal long ago
At Wounded Knee
Where our grandfathers bled for what they believed
Wouldn't buy what they sold - reservation
Life for our Black Hills gold
For praying to the vision of the promised land
Swaying to the rhythm of the drums
We were pledging our allegiance to Wevoka's plan
The Great Spirit cried when our warriors fell to the hail of
The blue coat's guns (so we're singin')
(OH) The first cowboys were doing the Ghostdance singin'
(OH) The first cowboys were doing the Ghostdance
For your soul, for your name
Many brave men's blood's running through your veins
Leave your mark - walk with pride
Live in honor to those who gave their lives
Ancient hearts are still seeking peace -
As you sing and dance, so you set them free
For praying to the vision of the promised land
Swaying to the rhythm of the drums
Pledging your allegiance to Wevoka's plan
By the marker that stands where our women and children
Fell to the blue coat's guns (start singin')
Praying to the vision of the promised land
Swaying to the rhythm of the drums
We were pledging our allegiance to Wevoka's plan
When the shots rang out, there soldiers all around
And their cannons put an end to our holy singin' of
I been a-waitin' in school all day long

Ricky decided to record Fats Domino's ";I'm Walking"; because it contained
the only two chords he knew how to play. He sang the song at the end of
the TV show on April 10, 1957.
I'm walking, yes indeed I'm talking
For you and me and I'm hoping
That you'll come back to me
I'm lonely as I can be
And I've waited for your company
And I'm hoping that you'll come back to me
Whatcha gonna do when the well runs dry
You gonna run away and hide
I'm gonna run right by your side
For you, pretty baby, I'd even die
I'm walking, yes indeed I'm talking
For you and me and I'm hoping
That you'll come back to me
---Instrumental--
I'm walking, yes indeed I'm talking
For you and me and I'm hoping
That you'll come back to me
I'm lonely as I can be
And I've waited for your company
And I'm hoping that you'll come back to me
Whatcha gonna do when the well runs dry
You gonna run away and hide
I'm gonna run right by your side
For you, pretty baby, I'd even die
I'm walking, yes indeed I'm talking
For you and me and I'm hoping
That you'll come back to me
Fools rush in where angels fear to tread
And so I come to you, my love, my heart above my head.
Though I see the danger there
If there's a chance for me, then I don't care
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Fools rush in where wise men never go
But wise men never fall in love, so how are they to know?
When we met, I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let this fool rush in
--instrumental interlude--
Fools rush in where wise men never, never, never go
Eh, but wise men never fall in love, so how are they to know?
Ahh, when we met, girl, I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let this fool rush in
Just open up your heart and let this fool rush on in
Just open up your heart because I-I-I-I-I-I-I am coming in
Open up your heart and let this fool rush in!!

I believe what you say when you say you're goin' steady with nobody else but me
I believe what you say when you say you don't kiss nobody else but me
I believe (I believe), do believe (do believe), I believe (I believe)
Yeah, I believe, pretty baby, believe you're goin' steady with nobody else but me
Well, there's-a one thing, baby, that I wantcha to know
When you're rockin' with me don't rock too slow
a-Move on in, get toe-to-toe
We're gonna rock till we can't rock no more
I believe (I believe), do believe (do believe), I believe (I believe)
Yeah, I believe, pretty baby, believe you're goin' steady with nobody else but me
SPOKEN: Well, let's dig it now.
--instrumental break--
Well, I believe what you say when you say you don't miss nobody else but me
I believe what you say when you say you don't kiss nobody else but me
I believe (I believe), do believe (do believe), I believe (I believe)
Yeah, I believe, pretty baby, believe you're goin' steady with nobody else but me
Well, when you kiss me, baby, then you roll your eyes
I get a funny feelin' that I'm hypnotized
Chills run all up and down my spine
I'm tellin' everybody that you're mine, all mine
I believe (I believe), do believe (do believe), yeah believe (yeah believe)
Oh, believe, pretty baby, believe you're goin' steady with nobody else but me
SPOKEN: Oh, yeah!!
Well, I believe, do believe, yeah believe
Well, believe, pretty baby, believe you're goin' steady with nobody else but me
When we said hello did my feelings show?
I know you didn¡¯t mean to break my heart
But when you left, it tore my world apart
Though it's been so long, it's hard to carry on
I still have to tell myself each day that I'm over you
Oh, can't you see it in my eyes?
I'll be searching for the rest of my life for love that's true with someone like you
Oh, I'll never find someone like you
I must've been insane to let you get away
I couldn't tell you how I felt inside and now I'm paying the price for my foolish pride
The time has come and gone to let you know that I was wrong
Now there's nothing I can say to make it up to you
Once again I'll watch you go
But it's killing me that you'll never know just what I'd do for someone like you
Oh, I'll never find someone like you
I'm holdin tight to broken dreams I've left behind
It's lonely fate but I will wait until the end of time
For someone like you
Oh-I know that I was wrong
Can't you see it in my eyes?
I'll be searching for the rest of my life for love that's true with someone like you
Oh, I'll never find someone like you
Will I ever fine...(someone like you)
(oh, How'd I ever let you go?)
(I try every day...but I still have this big hole in my heart)
(I'll never find someone like you)
I used to swear I'd die alone
No one could fence me in
That wedding vows were out of style
And bands of gold don't fit
But She made me a believer when she said that she'd be mine
With the words ";I do"; all my dreams came true
(Since) she said she'd be mine it's been good to be alive
(Yeah, Yeah, Yeah)
A love life of near Mrs.
Did the talkin' when I said
That princesses were fairytales
And magic's just for kids
But she made me a believer when she said that she'd be mine
With the words ";I do"; all my dreams came true
(Since) she said she'd be mine it's been good to be alive
(Yeah, I'm sayin')
She said she'd be mine-it's been good to be alive
Every time she called my name
The angels sang along
And when she held me close to her
My restless heart was home
Now every night is Christmas Eve
'Cause she lays gently by
And I see my unborn children
When I look into her eyes
Yes, she made me a believer when she said that she'd be mine
With the words ";I do"; all my dreams came true
(Since) she said she'd be mine it's been good to be a
Tried and true believer since she said she'd be mine
With the words ";I do"; all my dreams came true
Since she said she'd be mine it's been good to be alive
(Now I'm singing')
She said she'd be mine it's been good to be alive
(Yeah, Yeah, Yeah)
I hear you loud and clear my dear but it's nothing I haven't heard
Excuse me if I'm not hanging on your every word
I can recite each line by heart
I know my role...I know my part
But the truth of the matter is I'm through with all this chatter
Enough about you baby-let's talk about me
You don't even have a clue lately what I really need
You forgot how to listen
That's what I'm missin'
And I just wanna scream enough about you baby
Let's talk about me
I must've dropped a hundred hints and you let 'em fly right by
Time and again I find myself just wonderin' why
Now when I try to talk to you
You're not the girl I thought I knew
Well, here's some good advice let me get a word in edgewise
Enough about you baby-let's talk about me
You don't even have a clue lately what I really need
You forgot how to listen
That's what I'm missin'
And I just wanna scream enough about you baby
Let's talk about me
Take some time to see what's on my mind
You'll be amazed at what you'll find
Enough about you baby-let's talk about me
You don't even have a clue lately what I really need
You forgot how to listen
That's what I'm missin'
And I just wanna scream enough about you baby
Let's talk about me
Let's talk about me
Me, Me, Me, Me, Me-Yeah
Enough about you baby
Since the very first time when your eyes met mine I've been making a habit of crossing the line
I want you-do you want me too? Well, do ya?
Since your push came to shove I¡¯m a fool for your love-going way too far just isn't enough
I want you-do you want me too?
Would I give in if it's ever a tie?
Would I take the fall if you're caught in a lie?
Would I always jump then say, ";How high?";
Well I have to admit I'm a lunatic-acting crazy for you, I'm committed to it
I want you-do you want me too?
I was Jeckyll, now I'm Hyde-yeah dignity-wise I got plenty of room left to swallow more pride
Just say, ";I do";... that you want me too
Would I be the steel between you and a gun?
Would I be the glue when you're comin' undone?
Would I always swear you look much too young?
I would if you want me to
Would I cut a deal when you're payin' your dues?
Would I vote no on my right to choose?
Would I throw away my walkin' shoes?
I would if you want me to
I would if you want me to
To tell you the truth there ain't no use denying you're my what, when, where and why
Put me to the test and I'll put to rest any doubt in your mind
Would I get real when you're being a fake?
Would I counter every bad move you make?
Would I let you have all the time you could take?
I would if you want me to
Would I take you home when you've got nowhere to go?
Would I call the cops when you're stealing the show?
Would I knock you down when the bombs gonna blow?
I would if you want me to
I would if you want me to
I would if you want me to
I'd always heard about the great Atlantic
How it humbles you to stand upon it's shore
So I thought I'd take some time to go and see it
Since I had no ties to bind me anymore
But I wonder what I'd wasted my time for
You call that an ocean?
To me it's just a pond that's almost dry
If you want to see an ocean
You should see the tears her leaving made me cry
So I headed west to see that famous canyon
That the Colorado cut so deep and wide
I thought seeing something lower down than I felt
Might cheer me up and ease my troubled mind
But I just got disappointed one more time
You call that a canyon?
It's nothing but a pothole in the yard
If you want to see a canyon
You should see the hole she left here in my heart
So now I stand here staring at the Rockies
I've heard they reach right up to heaven's door
They're like that little hole and that blue puddle
And I see now what I should have seen before
Without her life holds no wonders anymore
You call that a mountain?
It's just a little pile of rocks and dirt
If you want to see a mountain
You ought to try getting over her
If you call that a mountain...
I was wrong-so untrue...just let me make it up to you
I would give the world if I could now baby to turn this mess around
Who's gonna save me? I can see it in your eyes
(Whoa)-You think it's over...
But everybody cries sometimes and everybody's got their alibis
Well, I know that you¡¯ve got it in you girl to let the whole thing slide
'Cause everybody cries sometimes
I can't sleep 'cause in my dreams my secrets wait to torture me
I would take it back if I could now baby to try to understand
Before you think I don't deserve you, I never meant to go and hurt you
Hey now baby, there's no hurry to decide-let me remind you...
That everybody cries sometimes and everybody's got their alibis
Well, I know that you¡¯ve got it in you girl to let the whole thing slide
Everybody cries sometimes-Don't give up on the love we brought to life
To make it last, forgive the past, and lean to dry your eyes
'Cause everybody cries sometimes-Everybody cries sometimes
When I head the truth come from you it hit me right between the eyes
I thought you were nothing like me...well, I got a big surprise
Now I learned what you were up to, 'cause you were talking in your sleep
Calling someone else's name-I guess the turnabout's complete
Hey now baby, can't you see it in my eyes-
The games are over now...
But everybody cries sometimes and everybody's got their alibis
Well, I know that you've got it in you girl to let the whole thing slide
Everybody cries sometimes-don't give up on the love we brought to life
We can make it last, forgive the past, and learn to dry your eyes
Everybody cries sometimes-It only makes us stronger down the line
We'll make it last, forgive the past, and never say goodbye
Everybody cries sometimes-Everybody cries sometimes
Well she looks just like a vision from heaven
When she smiles at him that way.
But if she knew what he's been up to I wonder what she'd say
And it really makes me mad
That he don't know what he has
Oh yeah,
What I wouldn't give to wake up in the arms of a girl like that
Oh yeah,
I was born to live in the ever-lovin' heart of a girl like that
And I may be out of line
But I wish that she was mine
Oh yeah, I would own the world if I owned the heart of a girl...
A girl like that
Well it's hard believin' that angel's not seeing
Right through his thin disguise
And I'd love to tell her I'd love her better if she'd only let me try
And it's drivin' me insane
That she don't even know my name
Oh yeah,
What I wouldn't give to wake up in the arms of a girl like that
Oh yeah,
I was born to live in the ever-lovin' heart of a girl like that
And I may be out of line
But I wish that she was mine
Oh yeah, I would own the world if I owned the heart of a girl...
A girl like that
Yeah, the thought has crossed my mind
That the truth may be unkind
And my one love's passed me by
As I watch her walk away
Oh yeah,
What I wouldn't give to wake up in the arms of a girl like that
Oh yeah,
I was born to live in the ever-lovin' heart of a girl like that
And I may be out of line
But somehow someday, I'll find a way of makin' her mine
Oh yeah, I would own the world if I owned the heart of a girl...
A girl like that
Oh yeah, I would own the world if I owned the heart of a girl...
A girl like that
Oh yeah, What I wouldn't give if I owned the heart of a girl...
A girl like that
Oh yeah, What I wouldn't give for the heart of a girl...
A girl like that
You see it dominate the six o'clock news
It's on the cover of your magazines
The television is a horror show
The paper reads like something by Stephen King
You've got forty lashes ¡®cross your back
Guess your mommy can't control her rage
Could it be because she just found out
Your drunken daddy's got a girlfriend
Who's half her age?
It's all alright - we're all alright
It's all alright - we're all alright
I see a moralistic bourgeoisie
Blocking clinics in a human chain
While the orphanages overflow
The children playing in the acid rain
Change the channel, God's right hand man
Says send him money or I'll burn in hell
And on the news I find it's all been spent
(That's where you money went)
They caught him playing ";feed the kitty";
In some cheap motel
(But) It's all alright - we're all alright
It's all alright - we're all alright
Big Brother tells me I can't live without my
MTV, sporty car, snappy clothes and VISA card
White picket fences and 2, 3 kids
They try to medicate our minds
And pray to God we never find
The extent of all damage they did
As April fades into December
It'd do us all good to remember
Even the dinosaurs couldn't give fate the slip
Yes my friends, the bottoming is we've got
The dumb leading the deaf and blind
We're fresh out of parachutes
And we're headed for the edge of a cliff
Look at us kids and all we deal with today
We love in fear ¡®cause of some monkey's disease
And ¡®cause our parents let the rainforests die
In twenty years, the sun will boil the seas
And Mr. President don't give a shit
Says, ";Hallelujah, the recession's gone!";
He spends a tril to keep the commies away
When there's a thousand homeless
Camping on the White House lawn
Chorus
It's all alright - we're all alright
We're all alright - we're all alright
";My question to the American people is :
WHO DO YOU TRUST?";
You led me on and took me in
Behind the veil but never again
Will I ever betray myself surrender to a savior's hell
For seven years I'd trust in you
My innocence I gave to you
You'd turn upon this gentle soul
Destroy naivete and hope
The day I found the Judas Mirror
Shades of gray turned crystal clear and
I could see for miles and miles
Your betrayals and my denials
I swore allegiance to the flag -
Then bore your judgements on my back
As sign ¡®em up and rob ¡®em blind
Became modus operandi
Battered, bleeding, bruised of heart -
My self-esteem you tore apart
Then spoke to me with forked tongue
My game you threw and swore I'd won
Reflections in the Judas Mirror
Everything revealed so clearly
Steal a look at times gone by
And spitting out my last good-bye
Well I won't live in apathy, embittered by the memories
You haven't seen the last of me
Never, I'll never - pass your way again
I'm stunned you sleep with you each night -
An incubating parasite
When daylight shines through your disguise
The truth will lead to your demise
You had me right in the palm of your hand
Gave you my soul - I was at your command
you had control -
how, I don't understand but it's over now
trusted your promises, believed your lies
how you tortured me slowly with your cheap alibis
I can finally let go now that I know what you're all about
so I'll always be glad you'd forget to forgive
when you leave
make the aftertaste of love
turned to hate bittersweet memories
I'm begging you please
Chorus:
Just kiss me when I cry
A taste of pretty poison to remember you by
Say you love me then tell me good-bye
Shoot me through the heart
And then kiss me when I cry
You bled me dry with your vicious demands
To steal my soul was a part of your plans
Your only happiness is breaking a man-
But it's over now
Use sex extortion and insatiable greed
How you'd stand there laughing after cutting me deep
You nearly killed me - never fulfilled me -
That's what you're all about
Since my pain is your pleasure
Take me down one last time
In your typical style you could kill me then smile
Hit me with a parting shot - leave me behind
Chorus
Salt and cyanide just don't mix
The tears will dry but remember this
I'll never make the same damn mistake
So come, seal your fate with one fatal kiss
Chorus
You begged me to stop my fussin'
There's something that needs discussin'
You've been keeping inside you
And it's high time I know
There's no way to break it gently
When you told me forever
It doesn't mean it wasn't true at the time
But it's time for you to go
Am I readin' you right?
Did you just turn out the light at the end
of our ten year Tunnel of Love?
Yeah, I know it's your hour of need-
But what about me?
I won't be the cage that holds you
I won't be the one who told you
that you're making a mistake¡
No Baby¡ I've never been that kind
And if you're sayin' that I've confined you
By all means go but let me remind you
You can't change your world as easy
as changin' your mind.
What more do I have to give?
Guess I'll just have to live with the thought
My tears'll be setting you free
And I hope you find all you seek-
But what about me?
What do you want me to say?
Girl, you're walking away with
The only dream I ever believed.
You'll be livin' through leavin' us be
But what about me?
Well I know love don't come guaranteed-
But what about me?
I've got a million pictures in my heart and here at home
But I'm afraid that they'll just fade with time
And photographs are cold
And a memory's hard to hold
And I never got the chance to say goodbye
One more day-one more night
One more chance to get it right
A few more words-a few more laughs
Doesn't seem too much to ask
And I know it's just a dream
But I'd give everything
If you'd walk through that door just once more
Sometimes I catch myself asking you out loud
What you'd do if you were in my place
'Cause every day in every way
I've tried to make you proud
I wish that I could tell you face to face
One more day-one more night
One more chance to get it right
A few more words-a few more laughs
Doesn't seem too much to ask
And I know it's just a dream
But I'd give everything
If you'd walk through that door just once more
Seasons come and seasons go
But love lives on-you taught me so
Oh-I've been blessed, I don't think twice
But wouldn't it be nice
One more day-one more night
One more chance to get it right
A few more words-a few more laughs
Doesn't seem too much to ask
And I know it's just a dream
But I'd give everything
If you'd walk through that door just once more
Every day I still can't believe that you're mine
In every way, you're all I need for all time
It's so easy to see forever isn't long enough for me
Every kiss lights up my heart like a flame
And every wish on each night's first star is in your name
It's so easy to see forever isn't long enough for me
I could love you for a million years
But I'd still beg for ten million more
From this moment 'till the end of time
I'll be eternally yours
I could love you for a million years
But I'd still beg for ten million more
From this moment 'till the end of time
I'll be eternally yours
Every night I whisper a prayer to God above
To keep you with me, 'cause forever just isn't long enough
You're the air that I breathe, and forever isn't long enough for me
Do you think it's all over?
Do you feel your life is like a lover that's turned their back on you?
Are you runnin' for cover?
Does a day go by that you're not-a-wishin' that you could start anew?
I hear you! Alright!
So you feel a little jaded?
Do you find your dreams have all been traded for a grownup point of view?
Have your memories faded?
Did you forget how you always swore you'd make it?
Well, why is life now living you?
So many days I'd waste away
Let my dismay consume and bind me
Now here I stand, a liberated man
I took command by taking it easy
Chorus:
They say you ain't got it, but don't you believe it
They pray that you'll fall in line
Within your reflection discover perfection
Don't fall for the loveless lies
The one to believe in is right before your eyes
What they sell, are you buyin'?
Do I come off like another pitchman lyin'?
Well, who can you believe?
You might think you're dyin'...
Is what you feel just the child in your heart a-cryin'
For you to set it free? Oh!
We're bought and sold, taught lust for gold
Trade youth for old schoold blind ambition
But if you slow it down and take a look around
You won't believe what you've been missing
Chorus
What's family honor?
Did you faithfully bow down and allow your father
To steal your sense of pride?
Or was it your momma?
Has she treated you like you've been her little trauma
Since the day the rabbit died?
I hear you! Oh, yeah!
Chorus
Out chorus:
They say you ain't got it, don't you believe it
You've been chasing a waste of time
It's in your reflection, a shining perfection
If you look with your heart you'll find
(Right before your eyes)
The one to believe in is right before you
The one you can lean on is right beore your eyes
The one you can turn to is right before your eyes
Looking back on a girl I knew
Whose smile and laughter carried me through
Oh, the way that I felt when she looked at me that way
When I heard she was gone I had no one to hold
I wept as I felt my heart growin' cold
Like Poppa she taught me there's no time like today
...I hear her saying
Chorus:
Love me today, and let my strength be your own
Love me today, because tomorrow I'll be gone
When I feel it's time to go - I'll be on my way
So love me today
I remember a time back when
Poppa would laugh as I held his hand
And just one embrace would make my troubles pass
I thought those times would never end
The day that he left he smiled and he said,
I'll be home soon but Poppa never came back...
I hear him saying
Don't be afraid to say, ";I love you";
Take the moment and make it last
¡®Cause if you don't tell them you love them
You might not get a second chance
...So hear them saying
Chorus
....Love me today (Oh)
Little by little, you put me in the middle
And I can't stop the rain from falling down
Falling down like my world around me,
to drown me
I'm just shakin' my head, looking for an answer
As I watch all my heartstrings unwind
No, I can't hide from my worst suspicions,
I've listened
To every little tale she tells
Bought every little lie she sells
Chorus:
And now I'm all shook up
'Cause I've been finding out a lot about you, girl
Just running 'round in circles over you, it's true
Yes, I'm all shook up
You've got me all shook up
Minute by minute, got tired of stepping in it
And I can't ride this train anymore
So what's in store for a fool and a dreamer? I believed her
And now I'm speaking in tongues, lying to the mirror
I'm afraid that I still haven't learned
Don't be concerned if you see me crying, its only me dyin'
'Cause everything I had is gone
Everything that's right's gone wrong
Chorus
Bridge:
I don't wanna play, I don't wanna hear it
Nothing's gonna change my mind
I say, ";Hey, while you're leavin', tell me:
What's so good about good-bye?
Good-bye, well good-bye!";
Out chorus:
And now I'm all shook up
Finding out a lot about you, girl
Just running 'round in circles, so confused over you
That I'm all shook up
Because I've gotta learn to live without you, girl
The promise of tomorrow fades to blue thanks to you
Yes, I'm all shook up
Because I finally know the truth about you, girl
I'll get through the darkness
And find the light, but tonight
I'm just all shook up
You've got me all shook up
Only Time Will Tell
Nelson
Hello, my friend, it sure has been a while
I don't know where the time has gone
But I've really missed your smile
It's been too long
I've got so much to say
That I don't know where to start
Ever since we went our seperate ways
There's been a big hole in my heart.
(But) as I recall, It was you who said goodbye.
Now you're asking me to give it one more try.
Well only time will tell
If you're gonnastand beside me
Through both Heaven and Hell
I wanna know that you're behind me.
But only time will tell
If what we have together's
Gonna' last forever more
And so my friend, I hope you understand
It's hard to put my trust in you
`Cause I'm afraid you'll leave again
I want to believe you've finally seen the light
That you've missed my love and you want to make it right
But only time will tell
If you're gonnastand beside me
Through both Heaven and Hell
I wanna know that you're behind me.
But only time will tell
If what we have together's
Gonna' last forever more
I got no way of knowing
what the future's gonna bring
so I'll just listen to my heart
`Cause it's never lied to me
And what is meant to be
Only time will tell
If you're gonnastand beside me
Through both Heaven and Hell
I wanna know that you're behind me.
But only time will tell
If what we have together's
Gonna' last forever
Time will tell
Do you believe in me?
Time will tell
If we're gonna be together
Only time will
I want a love to last forever
Time will tell
Matthew & Gunnar Nelson/Marc Tanner
Do I
Do I love you baby
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
More than ever
I remember all I wanted in a lover
Was just a pretty face but all I found were hearts of stone
Spent a lifetime
On the road to nowhere till I found my way back home
You gave me shelter from the cold and the rain - whoa and
Now I know pleasure where
There used to be pain
Do I
Do I love you baby
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
More than ever
Do I do I need you baby
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
More than ever
You saved me with warmth and understanding
You're everything that I could ever want
And after so long
We're standing here together
And forever we'll live on
In time most other loves just wither and fade

Ours just gets stronger each and every day

Even though I may not think to tell you every day
Oooh I'm so happy you're still mine
Oh, you came along with a love so sweet, took me by surprise
Knocked me off my feet
You still send shivers up and down my spine
Oh I gotta be the luckiest man alive
Do I
Do I love you baby
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
More than ever
Do I do I need you baby
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
More than ever
You saved me with warmth and understanding
You're everything that I could ever want

In time most other loves just wither and fade

Ours just gets stronger each and every day
Do I

Oooh I'm so happy you're still mine
Oh, you came along with a love so sweet, took me by surprise
Knocked me off my feet
You still send shivers up and down my spine
Matthew & Gunnar Nelson/Marc Tanner
Yesterday a sad goodbye
I told you that it wouldn't be for long
But it seems like a thousand years since I've been gone
Oh, what I'd give to hold you in my arms
Can't you see how much I need you tonight
I'm going crazy girl, can't get you off of my mind
Everyday that I live without you
I just can't help but dream about you
Everywhere I go
And after all the love that I've left behind me
You're the one I keep inside me
Everywhere I go... I get that feeling
It's hard to be so far apart
When thoughts of you keep coming on so strong
I picture you in every face I see
Now I know I left a part of me back home with you
There's nothing like falling for the very first time
I won't forget you girl, for the rest of my life
Everyday that I live without you
I just can't help but dream about you
Everywhere I go
And after all the love that I've left behind me
You're the one I keep inside me
Everywhere I go
I get that feeling
Everywhere I go
I get that feeling
You're with me
Everywhere I go
Everyday that I live without you
I just can't help but dream about you
Everywhere I go
And after all the love
That I've left behind me
You're the one I keep inside me
Everywhere I go
So when you're feeling lonely baby keep on shining
You'll always be here right beside me
The door behind me closes
I know for sure this chapter's over
I'll never more see my reflection
In her loving eyes
A million times before I've seen when opposites attract to me
The flame burns uncontrollably but soon the fire dies
But I'm not sure what I'm asking for
Why if I want love do I beg for more?
Guess we always want what we can't get
Love just strikes us blind but in the end
We always get what we can't want
You'd have thought we'd have learned
But we fall for it every time
It turns me on if she's unreachable or dangerous
When what I need and what I lust are completely different things
How many times have I let love slip through my fingers
Chasing after promises I know will never keep?
But I don't know why I can't let go
When my heart says yes
But my mind screams no
Guess we always want what we can't get
Love just strikes us blind but in the end
We always get what we can't want
You'd have thought we'd have learned
But we fall for it every time
I've been looking all my life for answers
Questions of the heart I've got to ask her
Does she exist or does she not? I wonder
And so my search for her goes on and on and on
But I don't know why I can't let go
When my heart says yes
But my mind screams no
Guess we always want what we can't get
Love just strikes us blind but in the end
We always get what we can't want
You'd have thought we'd have learned
But we fall for it every time
Guess we always want what we can't get
Will I be running around chasing love till I lose my mind?
We always get what we can't want
There's no man on the moon tonight
Guess he's turned his back on me
(Once again)
The wicked walls of this dead-end town
Are closing in and I can't breathe, oh
(Sail away)
Down the river of shattered dreams, my destiny's disguised
(But I will find it)
Empty promises flow my way
Adrift in shame, do you feel the same?
Another time, another place, we won't be prisoners of fate
Somehow, we'll find a way to get out of here
Oh, why don't we make the great escape
And set our sights on higher ground?
We're taking the ride all the way to the other side
(Step inside)
See the man with the cracked guitar
Selling tales of sonic gray
(The skies are falling)
No one gathers to sympathize or pay tribute to his fading flame
Tattoo girl on a butterfly sowing seeds of boundless hope
(And devotion)
Follow me through a leap of faith
I know the way, I heard her say
Another time, another place, we won't be prisoners of fate
Somehow, we'll find a way to get out of here
Oh, why don't we make the great escape
And set our sights on higher ground?
We're taking the ride all the way to the other side
I know why you cry
Just let go, it's easy if you try
Find a way, ooh
Do you feel the same, do you feel the same?
Another time, another place we won't be prisoners of fate
Somehow, we'll find a way to get out of here
Oh, why don't we make the great escape
And set our sights on higher ground?
We're taking the ride all the way to the other side, oh yeah
We've got to make the great escape
And leave behind what can't be saved
We're taking the ride all the way to the other side, oh
(Don't look back)
Come on, come on, come on and take my hand, oh
(Don't look back)
Whoa, sail away, do you feel the same like I do?
Your first hello, darkness is broken
Scared, I know, the wheels are in motion
It's opening night for the show of your lifetime, my friend
The days roll by, you live for tomorrow
Against the tide, in an ocean of sorrow
Well, is it all worth it if nobody wins in the end? Oh
We learn as a child to carry the pain
And hide it away in the dark
We've all lived this charade
But I don't wanna play anymore
Give me love for the rest of my life
Give me hope for the rest of my days
I'm tired of watching the world slip away
There's one thing you must understand
When there's no forgiveness then nobody wins in the end
You've come of age you're a slave and a soldier
You fight the rage every day, but you heart's growing colder
You're starting to wonder if nobody wins in the end
You know, I'd rather die than keep living the lie we've become
Give me love for the rest of my life
Give me hope for the rest of my days
I'm tired of watching the world slip away
There's one thing you must understand
When there's no forgiveness then nobody wins in the end
I wanna break free, I won't let these fools hold me down
I'm gonna spread my wings and fly, oh, ooh
It's time to go, the curtain is falling
The final show, a new play is calling
Just one thing to give you, take it or leave it, my friend
Sure took your time
I've been waiting here so long
But you keep tellin' me
To just hold on
But now your back
But you'll be leavin' me again
Oh, I just want your love
But you just need a friend
And with a wounded heart
You come to me
For a best friend's advice
And sympathy
Oh, if I could
Keep one heart from breakin'
Keep one heart from makin'
A big mistake
It'd be yours
Oh, if I could
Keep one heart from breakin'
Keep one heart from makin'
If I could keep one heart
It'd be yours
Stop standin' there
Won't you open up your mind?
Darlin', don't you take too long
Because my heart's on the line
Just close your eyes
And think of you and I alone
And how I've wanted you
And how my love for you has grown
If I could have one wish
I'd set you free
From you holdin' him
Instead of me
Oh, if I could
Keep one heart from breakin'
Keep one heart from makin'
A big mistake
It'd be yours
Oh, if I could
Keep one heart from breakin'
Keep one heart from makin'
If I could keep one heart
[Verse 1:]
You knew exactly what was going on when we first kicked it off
I told youu that I had a girlfriend but youu still went along (uh hmm)
Wearing sexy clothes trying to seduce me
And girl I must admit; I was into it
And then youu know it started getting crazy
We were hot and sweaty
Girl we both know what's going down
[Chorus:]
I'm pullin' on your hair
While I'm workin' on your back
Making youu moan...
Switch position; youu on top;
Screamin' "baby don't youu stop! "
Losing control
Said youu never had somebody put it on youu like this,
Like this, ohh
Now youu gon feel this baby -
And youu want me to leave my lady,
But I won't... I won't. (ohhh)
[Verse 2:]
Sometimes I think it is time for us to go our seperate ways (oh yeahh)
And I remember all the times we made sweet lovin' (uh hmm)
And I'll sing it to myself I can't be without youu
I stop thinkin' 'bout my girl - and I can't breathe without her
Everytime I try to let youu know that "I can't no mo'"
Youu know that stuffs going down
[Chorus:]
I'm pullin' on your hair
While I'm workin' on your back
Making youu moan...
Switch position; youu on top;
Screamin' "baby don't youu stop! "
Losing control
Said youu never had somebody put it on youu like this,
Like this, ohh
Now youu gon feel this baby -
And youu want me to leave my lady,
But I won't... I won't. (ohhh)
I've gotta get my courage up
Tonight I'm gonna tell you how I feel
So long I've been holding back
what's inside of me
I've wrestled with my confidence
now I want to learn to live again
You've gotta take a chance on love every now and then
After so many heartbreaks baby
I'll leave them all behind
Cause I know, you're all I need tonight
You're all it takes to get me high
You're all I need tonight
Won't let you pass me by
I used to lock my heart away
but you gave your love until it set me free
I never thought that a girl like you
would believe in me
Ooooh there's magic everytime we touch
you always make me feel like I belong
Together we could build a love
that goes on and on and on and on
You're one in a million baby
You made me see the light
Now I know you're all I need tonight
You're all it takes to get me high
You're all I need tonight
My everything my one desire
and I know cause you're all I need tonight
We'll take on the world
Just you and I
You're all I need tonight
It's never felt so right
Do you wanna
Do you wanna
Do you wanna hold me now
Come on and wrap your arms around me
I want to feel your heat surround me
Now I know
that you're all I need tonight
You're all it takes to get me high
You're all I need tonight
You're everything my one desire
We'll take on the world
Just you and I
Cause I know, you're all I need tonight
It's never felt so right
And I know that
you're all I need tonight
Will You Love Me?
Nelson
I always will remember - thosw sultry desert nights
(Our) hearts burning with a passion- WHOA, it's never felt so
Right.
Ir was meant to last forever- but I reached out you were
Gone-
It's taken time to mend this broken heart and forget you
done me Wrong-
Now you're back after all this time
You've reawakened all the feelings that I've tried so hard to
Hide- but baby-
Will you love me, like you loved me, yesterday?
That's all I need to know
Will you love me, like you loved me, yesterday?
Or will you just let me go?
We could leave the pain behind us-
Take a shot at love again
We could fool ourselves beliving
that our love would never end
I've been missing you -whoa-
What should I do?
Did you really have a change of heart
Or are you playing me for a
Fool?
You don't have to tell me where you've been
but there is one thing I've gotta know
Before I let you in- Baby-
Will you love me, like you loved me, yesterday?
That's all I need to know
Will you love me, like you loved me, yesterday?
Or will you just let me go?
We could leave the pain behind us-
Take a shot at love again
We could fool ourselves beliving
that our love would never end
I've been missing you -whoa-
What should I do?
Did you really have a change of heart
Or are you playing me for a
Fool?
Will you love me, like you loved me, yesterday?
That's all I need to know
Will you love me, like you loved me, yesterday?
Or will you just let me go?
Well, I remember the sparks that flew
In the summer of '79
My brother went wild
For a pretty girl's smile
But he didn't care that she was mine
We fought each other
Like never before
And beat till we were black and blue
And when we told her it was time
She'd made up her mind
She said, "i've had it with the both of you"
That was when the pact was made, uh
No woman could sever
We swore it brother for the rest of our lives
We would stick together forever
Cause
Two (two) heads (heads) are better than one
(woo hoo hoo)
It's double the pleasure babe
It's triple the fun
I said
Two (two) heads (heads) are better than one
(better than one)
It'll make you come undone
Two heads are better than one
Well we found ourselves in vegas
The city of sin
We were restless and looking to play
When this little blonde dolly
In the hotel lobby
Blew a kiss as she walked our way
She said, "i'm feelin kind of lonely"
And gave us a wink
Feeling bold we expressed our intentions
We said, "you gotta have both"
She said, "that's a joke."
"it takes two, just to get my attention"
Both to share and share alike, uh
That's a part of our lifestyle
So I'm gonna tell you baby
Just where we stand
If you won't love us both
It ain't what's wild
Because
Two (two) heads (heads) are better than one
(woo hoo hoo)
It's double the pleasure
Triple the fun
I said
Two (two) heads (heads) are better than one
It'll make you come undone
Two heads are better than one
We've come this far together
It's too late for turning back
But it's only fair to warn you
That when you rock with the boys
You never come back
(oh no)
Hey!
Two (two) heads (heads) are better than one
(woo hoo hoo)
It's double the pleasure
Triple the fun
I'll tell ya
Two (two) heads (heads) are better than one
(better than one)
It'll make you come undone
Nothing's better than
Two (two) heads (heads) are better than one
(woo hoo hoo)
It's double the pleasure babe
I'ts triple the fun
Two heads
Are better than one
(better than one)
It'll make you come undone
Two heads are better than one (one)
Two heads are better than one (one)
Two heads are better than one (one)
Whoa whoa whoa, baby
Two heads are better than one (one)
Two heads are better than one (one)
I am mommy's naughty boy
Her misbehavin' pride and joy
I'll sin, then she'll punish me for my wicked ways
I've disobeyed and now I've got to pay
(She gets down)
My girl gets me down on my knees
(Low down)
Won't stop 'til I beg and I plead
(She gets down)
I need to walk on the wilder side
So my girl gets down on me
Out of sight but not of mind, lurking in my darker side
Fantasies torture me, strange perversities
My love is like Pandora's box
And my mistress holds the key
(She gets down)
My girl tames the monster in me
(Low down)
She knows how to give what I need
(She gets down)
She controls my sexual greed
So I let my girl get down on me
I get my pleasure from the pain
But if nasty habit gossip spreads
What would the neighbors say?
(Hurts so good)
Are you ready for me senator?
Yes Mistress
(Like it should)
Have you been nice, or have you been naughty?
I've been a bad boy Mistress
(Hurts so good)
You know I'm going to have to punish you
Don't you?
Oh, do what you must
(She gets down)
My girl, she don't do it for free
(Low down)
I pray that she keeps it discreet
(She gets down)
'Cause no one knows the life that I lead at night
[Intro:]
I can show you how to reach that
I can show you how to reach that
[Verse 1:]
You've been running through my mind all day
Picturing you laying next to me
And I whisper to you, I wanna feel you
Please got in close, come on make your move
Don't worry about any distractions, boy
Put everything aside, and enjoy
The special things I got in store for you,
The sexy things I'm gonna do, ooh
[Bridge:]
Said it's easy to explain what I'm feeling now
I've already let you know what it's all about
If you still don't know the way, I can show you how
I know you're gonna love it, no doubt
Gotta tell me what you want, I'mma take you there
It's somethings you wanna do, and we're both aware
All the places I'mma take you, they won't compare
To anything you've seen before, baby
[Chorus:]
If you're looking for heaven
You're in the right place
I can show you how to reach that
I can give you good things,
If you're willing to taste
I can show you how to reach that
If you give me your all,
I'll show you the way to mine
I can show you how to reach that
Feel good love, baby I can show you right
I can show you how to reach that
[Verse 2:]
It's just the way that you do your thing
I can't get enough, need it everyday
So don't be mad, if I kiss and tell
Gotta dim the lights,
Cause you do it too well
Ain't no one else,
You're my one and only
I love the way that your lips
Such show me, give it to me
Do it to me, give it to me
Til our bodies can't take it no more
[Bridge:]
Said it's easy to explain what I'm feeling now
I've already let you know what it's all about
If you still don't know the way, I can show you how
I know you're gonna love it, no doubt
Gotta tell me what you want, I'mma take you there
It's somethings you wanna do, and we're both aware
All the places I'mma take you, they won't compare
To anything you've seen before, baby
[Chorus:]
If you're looking for heaven
You're in the right place
I can show you how to reach that
I can give you good things,
If you're willing to taste
I can show you how to reach that
If you give me your all,
I'll show you the way to mine
I can show you how to reach that
Feel good love, baby I can show you right
I can show you how to reach that
[Outro:]
I can show you how to reach that
I can show you how to reach that
I can show you how to reach that
I can show you how to reach that
(I can't Live Without Your) Love and Affection
Nelson
Here she comes, just like an angel
Seems like forever that she's been on my mind
But nothing has changed
She thinks I'm a waste of her time
There she goes, she don't know what she's missing
Can't she see I'll never give give up the fight
I'll do all I can till she understands my desire
I'm on the outside looking in
Let me into your heart - oh -
There's nothing on earth that
Should keep us apart
I can't live without your love and affection
I can't face another night on my own
I'd give up my pride to save me from being alone
'Cause I can't live without your love
So I wait, here for an answer
And wonder if tomorrow will be like yesterday
I'll keep holding on
But I can't go on living this way
I've been on the outside looking in
Bring these tears to an end - oh -
I realize there's no use for me to pretend
Oh yeah
I can't live without your love and affection
I can't face another night on my own
I'd give up my pride to save me from being alone
'Cause I can't live without your love
For your love... I'd put my arms around you
For your love... and find the strength to tell you
I can't live without your love and affection
I just can't go on this way anymore
As hard as I try there's one thing that I know for sure
I can't live without your love
Matthew & Gunnar Nelson/Marc Tanner
No use pretending, let's tell it like it is
You just took advantage when I gave all I had to give
After one too many battles I got tired of the fight
Each time we were together was just like walking on thin ice
Couldn't make it happen, no matter how I tried
Decided it's impossible to keep you satisfied
Our love was like a candle slowly dyin' in the wind
You can't hold on
When the feelin's gone
Now we've finally reach the end
I step out of the darkness and leave it all behind
Ooh-now I'm ready for a brand new life
Oh, I can hardly wait
Gonna find another lover, gonna start to live again
Oh, I can hardly wait
For somebody new to get into
I can hardly wait
Don't need the pressure
I refuse to play the game
I won't be around to jump next time you call my name
I'll take my chances, I'll take it day by day
Let the curtain fall I'm out of love that's all
Now there's nothing left to say
Learning from the changes got my feet back on the ground
ooo, nothing's ever gonna stop me now
Oh, I can hardly wait
Gonna find another love, gonna start to live again
Oh, I can hardly wait
For somebody new to get into
I can hardly wait
Moving on, down the road of life
I'm looking forward to what it is I'll find
The best is yet to come
And I can hardly wait...I can hardly wait
I can hardly wait
Gonna find another love, gonna start to live again
Oh, I can hardly wait
For somebody new to get into
Someday, maybe one day
I will understand what I did to send your love away
Someday, maybe one day
I'll see through your eyes what made you cry and run away
'Cause I, I feel a changing of the seasons
Wonder why, should not givin' me a reason
Are we 1 or 2 far gone to say 3 words, "I love you"
Before you take that five o'clock plane, that's leaving
I'm so tired of tryin' to count 8, 9, 10 ways I'll be dyin'
If you should take that five o'clock plane, hey, hey
Someday, baby one day
As we reminisce we'll laugh at all this hearsay
Someday, maybe one day
You'll apologize when you've realized
I never lied to you anyway
Will I, just be a footnote on forever?
Testify before you bury all our treasure
Are we 1 or 2 far gone to say 3 words, "I love you"
Before you take that five o'clock plane, that's leaving
I'm so tired of tryin' to count 8, 9, 10 ways I'll be dyin'
If you should take that five o'clock plane, hey, hey
Before you take that five o'clock plane
All those nights we held each other
Body, mind and soul
I can't believe you'd ever let that go
Are we 1 or 2 far gone to say 3 words, "I love you"
Before you take that five o'clock plane, that's leaving
I'm so tired, tired of tryin' to count 8, 9, 10 ways I'll be dyin'
If you should take that five o'clock plane, hey, hey
If you should take that five o'clock plane
Are we1 or 2 far gone
If you should take that plane
Bits and Pieces
Nelson
What are you crying for
Don't you know that your falling tears
Are just a thin disguise
Baby I'm on to you
Always pleading your innocence with those eyes
Hanging by a thread
for your love to come around
But now the ties are broken
I'm crashing to the ground
Can't you see, my heart's in bits and pieces
It comes as no surprise, after all your lies
I was a fool to believe in those empty tears you cried
How long was it going on
Could it be you were deceiving me, right from the start
I'll never forget the
Day I came back just to find you in someone
Else's arms
I let the passion blind me when the truth was plain to see
You made the chains that bind me and i just can't break free
Can't you see, my heart's in bits and pieces
It comes as no surprise, after all your lies
I was a fool to believe in those empty tears you cried
Oh, can't you see our love's in bits and pieces
A nightmare's coming true, all because of you
Now that the promise is broken, there's nothing left to lose
Little bits and pieces
After all your lies
I was a fool to believe you
My heart's in bits and pieces
Hanging by a thread for your love to come around
But now the ties are broken.
I'm crashing to the ground
Can't you see, my heart's in bits and pieces
It comes as no surprise, after all your lies
I was a fool to believe in those empty tears you cried
Can't you see, my heart's in bits and pieces
It comes as no surprise, after all your lies
"After the rain"
Nelson
Look in the mirror girl, by now you should know
You're living in a fantasy, and you can't let go
He never really loved you from the start
The only thing he ever gave you was a broken heart
Don't be afraid to lose what was never meant to be
After the rain washes away the tears
And all the pain
Only after the rain
Can you live again
I know the emptiness you feel inside
You're thinking if you break away, you'll never survive
I'm waiting as my heart beats just for you
Come on and take my hand and I'll pull you through
But things will never change until you want them to
After the rain washes away the tears
And all the pain
Only after the rain
Can you live again
After the rain
You'll see the sun appear to light the way
Only after the rain
Can you hope to find true love again
He never really loved you from the start
The only thing he ever gave you was a broken heart
Come on and take my hand I'll pull you through
You know the time has come for you to face the truth
After the rain washes away the tears
And all the pain
Only after the rain
Can you live again
After the rain
You'll see the sun appear to light the way
Only after the rain
Can you hope to find true love again
Matthew & Gunnar Nelson/Marc Tanner/Craig Stull
It might be the way you move that keeps me up at night
Or the outline of your silhouette when you step into the light
Is it in the things you say or the message in your eyes
The urgency you feel from me cannot be denied
I wanted freedom, not some ball and chain
But now I feel like giving in
And I know what's to blame
It's just desire burning up my heart
I never want to let this feeling go
It's just desire
That makes me want to love you
All night long
I feel like there's a spell on me
That words just can't describe
It hit me like a ton of bricks
Right between the eyes
I swore I'd never take the fall
Now I'm hanging on the edge
Could you be my destiny
Or something I'll regret
This temptation just whets my appetite
I ain't hungry for no lasting thing
It's clear to me tonight
It's just desire burning up my heart
I never want to let this feeling go
It's just desire
That makes me want to love you
All night long
All right
Come on baby, oh, whoa
I don't know what possesses me
But every time you're next to me
I just can't control myself
When it comes to you I'm driven by desire
I want my freedom, not some ball and chain
