I'm uptight, gotta give a little
slow down, take my time
Ease up, learn to relax a little
So close, so close
I'm shakin', shakin' with expectation
Breathless, outta time
Lips dry, feels like my heart is burstin'
So close, so close
Smooth as silk but sharp as a knife
Hotter than hell but cooler than ice
Hard as steel but soft with your touch
Take luck to the limit but don't ask too much
You're all woman, you're all woman
You're all woman
So close, so close
To losing my mind
Panic, I'm on the verge of breakdown
Half crazed, lost control, need you to kill my affection
So close, so close
Helpless, holding out for rescue
Gunned down, one more time
Breakthrough, gotta try to reach you
So close, so close
chorus
Woman, woman
Hard as steel but soft with your touch
Take luck to the limit but don't ask too much
You're all woman, you're all woman
You're all woman
So close, so close
To losing my woman
Woman, you're all woman
So close, so close
To losing my woman
You're all woman, you're all woman
(Mayfield)
You must believe me
No matter what the people might say
You must believe me
Darling it just didn't happen that way
No, no it just didn't happen that way
You come home
With something on your mind
Tell me darling
Why are you crying
I said be serious
No time for fun
You're tryin' to tell me
Something that I've done
The things you heard
Couldn't be denied
But before your opinion
Listen to my side
You must believe me
No matter what the people might say
You must believe me
Darling it just didn't happen that way
No, no it just didn't happen that way
Break
Oh oh
Oh oh
You come home
With something on your mind
Tell me darling
Why are you crying
I said be serious
No time for fun
You're tryin' to tell me
Something that I've done
The things you heard
Couldn't be denied
But before your opinion
Listen to my side
You must believe me
No matter what the people might say
You must believe me
You must believe me
You must believe me

You love 'cos you like it
You like it because you're loving me
You touch 'cos you like it
You like it because you're touching me
You kiss 'cos you like it
You like it because you're kissing me
You hold 'cos you like it
You like it because you're holding me
When we first met some time ago,
I didn't know what it'd be like
Just because I'd been hurt before,
I didn't know it could work out,
I didn't know it could work out
I got something to shout
You love 'cos you like it
You like it because you're loving me
You kiss 'cos you like it
You like it because you're kissing me
It came so easily
Now I don't want to be free
'cos something in my heart
tells me I wanna be a part of you
repeat
You love 'cos you like it
You like it because you're loving me
You kiss 'cos you like it
You like it because you're kissing me

Whatever happened to you last night
You should have been here holding me tight
Without you in my arms
I've tried to hold out to get you here
I've waited ages to hold you near
Without you in my arms
People say that I'm a lonely one
but I'm going to prove you're not the only one only one only one
(repeat)
It seems I tried just a little too hard
to make you stay with me all night
Without you in my arms
Without you in my arms
You gave me strength when I was weak
You gave me hope instead of thinking of defeat
You gave me joy when things were sad
Put in the good took out all the bad
I was a loser with you I won
Now I'm doing all the things I left undone
Brought back the feelings I thought were gone
And it's only the beginning and we've only just begun
Now my life has changed in oh so many ways
I have no doubt who I follow
I know you're with me in every step I take
Leavin' behind me all my sorrow
verse 1
You gave me joy when things were sad
And it's only the beginning cause we've only just begun
You gave me joy when I was weak
You gave me hope instead of thinkin' of defeat
You gave me joy when things were sad
And it's only the beginning cause we've only just begun
(Sylvester / Clarke)
Picked up the phone called there's no one at home
You said you'd be there for my call
Did I do right by staying home tonight
All I know is I'm so alone
You made a date said you wouldn't be late
That's when my hopes started to rise
I didn't really know ya You said "I wanna show ya"
And I believed that look in your eyes
Well you gotta give me life
You gave me life
You gotta give me life
with that look in your eyes
chorus
Went out on the street Just a chance we might meet
The chance well it came to order
I saw you standing there baby without a care
Giving the same line to a guy on the corner
Don't know your name
Don't know your game
It's such a shame Oh yeah
repeat
chorus
Standing in the shadow
Of a Spanish lady
Second hand bargain
With a song so sad
And a rose in her hand
Was crying
Lonely rooms in back of bars
Bright lights and sitting out in the stars
There was room to write a poem
But the words don't come easy
They're hung on frozen lips standing there
While the world's anticipating love
And the words don't come easy
Lady laughs a laughing tear and says
All we really need today
Is the sun in our life
The sun in our life
Money was only mean to buy time
No money left over
Made the street to show that the door was open
Out in the silence of the angry crowd
Only the beggars crying aloud
Not a precious thing was spoken
But the words don't come easy
They're hung on frozen lips standing there
While the world's anticipating love
And the words don't come easy
Lady laughs a laughing tear and says
All we really need today
Is the sun in our life
Wiggle
Wiggle that
Wiggle that wot
Wiggle that wotsit
Wiggle that wotsit
Shakin that shimmy
Bring it up to me
Ring a ding a ling me
Turn me on
Wiggle that wotsit
Shake it up shake it down
Serve me up another round
Rub a dub hug me
Turn me on
Lord you know how crazy it makes me
You turn my insides out
The pleasure in the pain is so excruciating
It makes me wanna shout
Give me a hard time
You gonna blow my dynamo
My wheel's ain't gonna touch the ground
Heaven knows how I'm gonna cope with the situation
It makes me wanna shout
(Sylvester / Clarke)
Why didn't you believe in Him
Why didn't you believe
Why didn't you believe in Him
Why didn't you believe
He asked for you to love one another
You turned your back and played on with your games
If you had listened, you would have discovered
the Bible would have told a different story
chorus
I'm sick and tired of this old world
There's so many religions to believe in
If I had been alive at the time,
I'd known where and what and why I am
chorus
You got to believe (Gotta believe)
You got to believe (Gotta believe)
You got to believe (Gotta believe)
You got to believe (Gotta believe)
You got to believe
(Gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe,
gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe)
You crucified the man who came to save us
Forgive them for they know not what they do
But I cannot forgive you what you did
I believed, why couldn't you
chorus
(Dylan)
Oh the time will come up
When the winds will stop
And the breeze will cease to be a breezin
Like the stillness in the wind
For the hurricane begins
The hour when the ship comes in
Oh the seas will split
And the ship will hit
And the shoreline sands will be shaken
Then the tide will sound and the wind will pound
And the morning will be breakin
Oh the fishes will laugh
As they swim out of the path
And the seagulls they'll be smilin
And the rocks on the sand
Will proudly stand
The hour that the ship comes in
And the words they use
For to get the ship confused
Will not be understood as they are spoken
For the chains of the sea
Will have busted in the night
And be buried at the bottom of the ocean
verse 2
A song will lift as the main sail shifts
And the boat drifts onto the shoreline
And the sun will respect every face on the deck
The hour when the ship comes in
Then the sands will roll out a carpet of gold
For your weary toes to be a touchin
And the ships wise men will remind you once again
That the whole wide world is watchin
Turning me on and with your eyes
Playing along and with your eyes
Coming on strong and with your eyes
You burn me
Searching to please and with your smile
Cursing with ease and with your smile
Kindle the flame and with your smile
You burn me
I'd rather you told me that you couldn't care less
Than put me through numbers that feel like a test
I want you
But I gotta know that I'm wanted
That I don't get taken for granted
When I'm yours
Turning me on and with your eyes
Playing along and with your eyes
Coming on strong and with your eyes
You burn me
Searching to please and with your smile
Cursing with ease and with your smile
Kindle the flame and with your smile
You burn me
I'd rather you told me that you couldn't care less
Than put me through numbers that feel like a test
I want you
I'll be yours to command and obey
I won't demand, but I gotta know
That I'm wanted
And I don't get taken for granted
When I'm yours
Break
I'll be yours to command and obey
I won't demand, but I gotta know
That I'm wanted

And I don't get taken for granted
When I'm yours
I'll be yours to command and obey
I won't demand, but I gotta know
That I'm wanted
And I don't get taken for granted
When I'm not there
When I'm not there
Do you ever think of me
Do you ever talk of me
Do you ever ask for me
When I'm not there
Have you ever thought of me
Have you ever talked of me
Have you ever longed for me
When I'm not there
Wonderin' if you're true to me
And if our love will always be
I tried to get you by my side
But you said 'No
No no no no no'
Don't you ever make me blue
Won't you let me call on you
And may all my dreams come true
When I'm not there
chorus
No no no no no
(Ransford)
I'm telling you girl
That I'm coming home to you
I hate to say this
But I know you've been untrue
Just stop your foolin'
Come on and hold me
When I come home to you
When I come home to you
It's plain to see love
Isn't something new to you
You couldn't be loved
Cause you've never known the truth
About the lies
You tell to me
When I come home to you
When I come home to you
Comin' home isn't good for me
I know
But the way that you look at me
I know
That I've got to come on home
And take you in my arms
Break
Comin' home isn't good for me
I know
But the way that you look at me
I know
That I've got to come on home
And take you in my arms
I'm telling you girl
That I'm coming home to you
I hate to say this
But I know you've been untrue
Just stop your foolin'
Come on and hold me
When I come home to you
When I come home to you
woa wo
When I come home to you
(Irwin)
I'd be a fool not to realize
just how much I needed your love
I'd be a fool not to realize
I'm the guy you're thinking of whoa
I don't want nobody new
In the future baby I'm gonna be true to you
What kind of boy do you think I am
I'd give you love and ecstasy
I ain't ever gonna break your heart
And you know and you know when I hold you close to me
You know it starts to tear me apart whoa
What kind of boy do you think I'd be
if I let other girls kiss on me
Oh can't you see
What kind of boy do you think I am
Here in your arms
I wanna be little girl
You give your love
so tenderly
verse 3
chorus
What kind of boy do you think I am
What kind of boy do you think I am
What kind of boy do you think I am
I should be better off without you
You take a pride in making me blue
I'm telling you my friend
It's got to be the end
We're through
I told you time and time again
You told me he was just a friend
But I found out some way
I've seen him every day
With you
'Cause you never treat me tenderly
You got no reason for leaving me
'Cause I can't leave you alone
'Cause I knew from the start
You'd be tearing me apart
Sooner or later
break
'Cause you never treat me tenderly
You got no reason for leaving me
'Cause I can't leave you alone
'Cause I knew from the start
You'd be tearing me apart
Sooner or later
And now my crying days are through
No longer shed a tear for you
I'm telling you my friend
It's got to be the end
We're through
We're through
We're through
Here I go again
Watch me now 'cause
Here I go again.
I've been hurt so much before
I told myself, yes I did
No more, no more won't get hurt any more
There I was all by myself
Doing all right
Until I saw you last night
And then I knew that
Here I go again
I can't help it
Here I go again
Makin' the same mistakes
Headin' for more heartaches
What can I do when there's nothing I can do
I looked in your eyes and I knew that I was through
What's the use
I'll just give in
Try as I may, and I do
I'll never win, never win, baby I'll never win.
Now, you're here, so close to me
I can't resist you
And I knew when I kissed you
I'm gonna say now
Here I go again
Watch me now 'cause
Here I go again
Falling in love, in love
Falling in love, in love
Falling in love, in love
Falling in love
I'm feeling free Across the ocean
we go sailing on an on into the sunshine
On our way life is so good to us now
Feeling good feeling free we're alive
Blue skies above Everything's right
As we're going on our way the future looks bright
You and me together at last
Feeling good feeling free we're alive
Lovely feeling the wind blows through your hair
As we're sailing through life without a care
Look around and feel the freedom
All around us It is ours just for the taking
Nearer now to the island we go
Feeling good feeling free we're alive
chorus
Faster now across the surface
Of the water Keep on head
All life will catch up
Everyone would like to feel like we do
Feeling good feeling free we're alive
Feeling good feeling free we're alive
Feeling good feeling free we're alive
(Hicks / Clarke / Nash)
I've just come in from out of the rain
It's wet outside the water runs down a drain
I go to bed 'cause my head's full of pain
And drip drip it's driving me wild
Drip drip it's driving me wild
Outside the window there's a pipe wearing thin
It lets the water do a dance on a tin
I try to sleep but it's making a din
And drip drip it's driving me wild
Drip drip it's driving me wild
Water on the brain water on the brain
Water on the brain water on the brain
Drip drip it's driving me wild
Drip drip it's driving me wild
I toss and turn and my patience is weak
Go to the bathroom door and I take a peak yeah
The bath tap has started a leak
And drip drip it's driving me wild
Drip drip it's driving me wild
Drip drip it's driving me wild
Drip drip it's driving me wild

Everybody's gonna pray
On the very last day
When they hear that bell
Ring the world away
Everybody's gonna pray to the heavens on the Judgment Day
Well you can sing about the great King David
And you can preach about the wisdom of Saul
But the Judgment falls on all mankind
When the trumpet sounds the call
All equal and the same
When the Lord, He calls your name
Get ready brothers for that day
Everybody's gonna pray
On the very last day
When they hear that bell
Ring the world away
Everybody's gonna pray to the heavens on the Judgment Day
Well one day soon all men will stand
His words will be heeded in all the land
Men shall know and men shall see
We all are brothers and we all are free
Mankind was made of clay
Each of us in the very same way
Get ready brothers for that day
Everybody's gonna pray
On the very last day
When they hear that bell
Ring the world away
Everybody's gonna pray to the heavens on the Judgment Day
Break
Well the law is given and the law is known
The tale is told and the seed is sown
From dust we came and dust we'll go
You know the Lord once told us so
Each brother take His hand
Heed the meaning of the Lord's command
Get ready brother for that day
Everybody's gonna pray
On the very last day
When they hear that bell
Ring the world away
Everybody's gonna pray to the heavens on the Judgment Day
Judgment Day
Judgment Day
Judgment Day
I thought I'd seen everythin' before
I've never seen the guy who could walk through walls
You say my eyes are playing tricks on me
What I'm seeing's not reality
If you're doing magic
Tell me how you do it
If you're doing magic
Show me how you're doing it
Hey babe if you've nothin to hide
How do you get two shadows on your blind
Hey babe if you've nothing to hide
How do you get him out on time
Hey babe if you've nothin to hide
How do you get two shadows on your blind
Real or illusion I can't tell them apart
Is it the conjuring of a jealous heart
I'm pretty sure that you're two-timing me
I'm seeing things losing my sanity

Quiet shadows plays in the evening
In the cold sea the sun went down
Bright stars on the blue water
In the hours of the night
All the sweetness touched by hands
Everything's close but so far away
Everything's given to people as a law
The wind rests
The creek is like a mirror
And the sailor takes down the sails
Over the meadow
The mist is dancing
You can't believe it
But this is all yours
All the sweetness touched by hands
Everything's close but so far away
Everything's given to people as a law
Break
Quiet shadows plays in the evening
In the cold sea the sun went down
Bright stars on the blue water
In the hours of the night
All the sweetness touched by hands
Everything's close but so far away
She wakes up early every morning
She get up long before the sunshine
Greets the milkman who's still yawning
And reads the paper for a short time
Calls the kids 'Get out of bed'
They never hear a word she says
Husband stands to leave the table
She says 'I hope you have a good day'
He thinks 'One day soon as I'm able
I'll get a job where I get good pay.'
They find it hard to make ends meet
But they don't mention it because they have each other
An love is free while they're supposed to be ...
Too young to be married
Too young to be free
Too young to be married
But what could they do, they were going to have a baby
After the kids have had their breakfast
Now they're off to get some schooling
She cleans the house and makes the beds
She starts to dreams but knows she's fooling
She swears one day she'll stay in bed
but for now she knows she's got to keep on working
'Cos round and round inside her head
She hears the words her mother said ...
chorus
Too young to be married
Too young to be free
Too young to be married
But what could they do?
I can't make it if you leave me
I'm sorry Suzanne believe me I was wrong
And I knew I was all along
Forgive me
I still love you more than ever
I'm sorry Suzanne for ever hurting you
You know I never wanted to
I'm truly sorry Suzanne
I could never ever justify
All the tears I made you cry
But I do regret it my Suzanne
You gotta believe me
I was lookin' 'round for someone new
What a foolish thing to do
All the time I knew it
Heaven knows what made me do it girl
I can't make it if you leave me
I'm sorry Suzanne believe me I was wrong
And I knew I was all along, all along
break
I'm truly sorry Suzanne
If you would only take me back again
Things would be so different then
What I wouldn't give for
One more chance to live for you Suzanne
I can't make it if you leave me
I'm sorry Suzanne believe me I was wrong
And I knew I was all along
Forgive me
I still love you more than ever
I'm sorry Suzanne for ever hurting you
You know I never wanted to
I'm truly sorry Suzanne
When tomorrow comes you'll be thinking of yesterday
All the things you're gonna do
Will be the things you've done
What difference does it make to you
What you were doing yesterday
Today will be yesterday tomorrow when it comes
In or out it's all the same
When you're in you're out again
Going in you must come out of place you've been in
If I'm saying 'yes' to you
It's 'no' if I don't follow through
Today will be yesterday tomorrow when it comes
See then use your mind
Everything is everything all of the time
See then use your mind
Everything is everything all of the time
verse 1
Today will be yesterday tomorrow when it comes
Next time I meet a girl, I won't ask her her name
Or where she's been, or where she came from
The last time I found love it only brought me pain
The problems almost took me over
I was washing up for mother, I was lighting pipes for papa
And fetching water
And that's got nothing at all, that's got nothing at all
To do with love
Next time I meet a girl
I won't tell her my name
Or where I've been
Or where I came from
I'll take a hold of her
And love her just the same
No need to mention past acquaintances
I just want someone to love me
And someone to like the presents
That I bought her
'Cause that's got something to do
Yes, that's got something to do
To do with love
Each girl I meet comes up wronger
And I can't take it all much longer
No, I can't no
Verse 3
Verse 4
I'll be true to you yes I will
I'll be true to you yes I will
I won't look twice when the other girls go by
I'll be true to you yes I will
Somehow this time it's all so clear to me
The way to go is easy to see
My heart is sure you're the girl I've waited for
I'll be true to you yes I will
Yes I will
I used to be the kind
Who said that every girl's the same
And love was just a game for havin' fun
But when I looked at you
I knew that I was wrong
And that I really could belong to only one
I'll be true to you yes I will
Every dream that you have I'll fulfil
I never promised this to any girl before
but I'll be true to you yes I will
break
I never promised this to any girl before
But I'll be true to you yes I will
Yes I will
Yes I will
Yes I will
Oh, yes I will

You better look out
look out your window tonight
There'll be a hot cat on your tin roof

You better look out

You gotta reach out

Snatch your hand full of stars

This wheel's on fire
This wheel's on fire
This wheel's on fire
If your memory serves you well
We're gonna meet again and wait
So I'm gonna pack all my things
And sit there for it gets to late
No my ??? will come to you
With another tale to tell
And you know that we shall meet again
If your memory serves you well
Wheel's on fire
rollin down the road
Let's notify my next of kin
this wheel shall explode
If your memory serves you well
I was gonna confiscate your lace
And wrap it up in a sailors knot
And hide it in your case
If I knew for sure that it was yours
But it was so hard to tell
And you know that we shall meet again
If your memory serves you well
chorus
This wheel's on fire
This wheel's on fire
This wheel's on fire
If your memory serves you well
You'll remember you're the one
That called on me to call on them
To get your favours done
And after every ??? I failed
And there was nothin more to tell
You knew that we should meet again
If your memory serves you well
This wheel's on fire
This wheel's on fire
This wheel's on fire
Well I've known this girl forever
From the playground to the dance hall
From the same old dirty housing
All her friends I will call my friends
All the time we call our own
Well we used to stand together
Now I stand alone
This is it, how was I the last to know
This is it, how was I the last to know
This is it, it's touch and go
Well I should've seen it coming
Well I should've read the signs
She was gone in the morning
Left me with red eyes at night
Well she couldn't even tell me
Didn't tell me
Cause my courage must've failed her
Turning out the light
chorus
What if I should find you
Drag you to your room
That's the trouble you've been go too soon
Well I hope you make it big time
Well I hope you got it right
That you say you got no heart to put up a fight
Maybe I'm new to this small town
But I still got more than you
Why don't you just try and call me
When you're passing through
chorus
What if I should find you
Take you to a movie
That's the trouble you been go too soon
chorus x2
Think it over what you just said.
Think it over in your pretty little head.
Are you sure that I'm not the one?
Is your love real or only fun?
Think it over, just think it over.
My lonely heart grows cold and old.
Think it over and let me know.
Think it over and don't be slow.
Just remember all birds and bees
Go by two's through life's mysteries.
Think it over, yes just think it over.
My lonely heart grows cold and old.
Think it over (over and over).
Think it over (over and over).
Think it over (over and over).
Think it over (over and over).
Think it over, just think it over.
My lonely heart grows cold and old.
All right, all right.
Think it over and think of me.
Think it over and you will see
The happy day when you and I
Think as one and kiss the bkues goodbye.
Think it over, just think it over.
My lonely heart grows cold and old.
Riding along on a carousel
Trying to catch up to you
Riding along on a carousel
Will I catch up to you
Horses chasing 'cause they're racing
So near yet so far
On a carousel, on a carousel
Nearer, nearer by changing horses
Still so far away
People fighting for their places
Just get in the way
Soon you'll leave and then I'll lose you
Still we're going round
On a carousel, on a carousel
Round and round and round and round and round
And round and round and round with you
Up, down, up, down, up, down too
As she leaves she drops the presents
That she won before
Pulling ducks out of the water
Got the highest score
Now's my chance and I must take it
A case of do-or-die
On a carousel, on a carousel
Round and round and round and round and round
And round and round and round with you
Up, down, up, down, up, down too
Riding along on a carousel
Trying to catch up to you
Riding along on a carousel
Will I catch up to you
Now we take our ride together
No more chasing her
On a carousel, on a carousel
(ain’t that) just like me
Searchin’
Stay
Just one look
Here I go again
We’re through
Yes I will
I’m alive
Look through any window
If I needed someone
I can’t let go
Bus stop
Stop stop stop
On a carousel

Hey willy
Long cool woman in a black dress
Oh baby
I'm aware of where you go each time you leave my door.
Watching you walkin' down the street
Knowing there's another guy you meet.
This time before you run to him leaving me alone again
Think it over - haven't I been good to you
baby? Think it over.
Stop in the name of love before you break my heart.
Stop in the name of love before you tear it apart.
I'm trying hard
hard to the patient
wish you'd stop this infatuation.
But each time I think of you together I see myself losing you forevel
This time before you leave my heart and rush back into his arms -
Think it over - haven't I been good to you
baby?
Think it over - haven't I been sweet to you
baby?
Stop in the name of love before you break my heart. . . .
Stop in the name of love before you break my heart. . . .
In the name of love before you break my heart.
Stop in the name oflove. Stop in the name of love.
Stop in the name of love.

If I were the sun, way up there
I'd roll around almost anywhere
Oh, I'd be the moon when the sun goes down
Just to let you know, I'm still around That's how strong my love is, oh
That's how strong my love is, baby, baby
That's how strong my love is, yeah
That's how strong my love is I'd be the weeping willow, drown in my tears
You could go swimming whenever you're near
Oh, I'd be the rainbow when tears are gone
Wrap you in my colors, keep you warm
chorus
I'd be the ocean so deep and so wide
I'd shed your tears whenever you'd cry
I'd be the breeze when the storms are gone
And dry your eyes and keep you warm
That's how strong love is, yeah
That's how strong my love is, baby, baby
That's how strong love is, listen to me know
That's how strong my love is
verse 3
chorus
(Holly / Alison)
Well, you give me all your lovin' and your turtle dovin',
all your hugs and kisses and your money too.
Well, you know you love me baby, until you tell me, maybe,
that some day, well, I'll be through, well ...
That'll be the day, when you say good-bye,
yes, that'll be the day, when you make me cry.
Oh you say you're gonna leave, you know it's a lie 'cos
that'll be the day when I die.
When Cupid shot his dart he shot it at your heart
So if we ever part and I leave you
You say you told me and you told me boldly
That someday well, I'll be through
chorus
(Clarke / Hicks / Nash)
Will you try to justify the meaning
Of the note you sent this evening
To my door, you're not deceiving me
I'd have thought that you'd have known much better
Sending round an unsigned letter
Facing me would be much better now
Is it just that you can't face the future with me
Can't you tell me to my face
You just took the coward's way to say goodbye
How would you feel here in my place
If at last I think I'm glad to rid myself of you I'm sad
To think about the time I'll have to go
Then I'll turn and walk away so please don't beg for me to stay
Cause I know just what I will say to you
Is it just that you can't face the future with me
Can't you tell me to my face
You just took the coward's way to say goodbye
How would you feel here in my place
Tell me to my face you're leaving now
Tell me to my face you're leaving now
Though you try to justify the meaning
Of the note you sent this evening
To my door, you're not deceiving me
I'd have thought that you'd have known much better
Sending round an unsigned letter
Facing me would be much better now
Is it just that you can't face the future with me
Can't you tell me to my face
You just took the coward's way to say goodbye
How would you feel here in my place
(Holly / Petty)
Take your time, I can wait
All of our love I know will be mine
If you take your time
Take your time, though it's late
Heart strings will sing like a string of twine
If you take your time
Take your time and take mine too
I have time to spend
Take your time, go with me through
Times 'til all times end

verse 3
verse 1
For our love, the love I know will be mine
If you take your time

You've got that suspicious look in your eyes
You've got that suspicious look in your eyes
Somehow at times I read your mind
You just float in a cloud above me
You've no control of what you say
And no faith in the things that I do
If I question you
It's not because I'm prying
I give you my best
So why don't you start trying
We used to act and think alike
No regrets after things that we'd done
You're changing all your thoughts of me
You've no right to put me down this way
I believe in you
So it seems worth trying
You sound so sincere
But when I look at you
You've got that suspicious look in your eyes
You've got that suspicious look in your eyes
Break
At times I think it seems so clear
But your eyes plague my mind, it's no use
They pierce, they glare, they seem to stare
If they spoke what a story they'd tell
I believe in you
So it seems worth trying
You sound so sincere
But when I look at you
You've got that suspicious look in your eyes
You've got that suspicious look in your eyes
You've got that suspicious look in your eyes
You've got that suspicious look in your eyes

Stormy waters, I can't find the harbour
Stormy water keeps me away
Stormy waters, I can't try any harder
And all I ask is to know
I'm near the bay
I did it again, I let another year roll away
So I pretend that I've got a reason to say
I'm closer to having you
I never should have strayed
I wish it could
Be easier
For me to end someday
Stormy waters, I can't find the harbour
Stormy water keeps me away
Stormy waters, I can't try any harder
And all I ask is to know
I'm near the bay
Whatever I did tell me would I do
The same again
If I could relive would it be the same in the end
'Cause everyday
Has a funny way
Of ending up so blue
I wish it could
Be easier
To get back with you
Stormy waters, I can't find the harbour
Stormy water keeps me away
Stormy waters, I can't try any harder
And all I ask is to know
I'm near the bay
Stormy waters, I can't find the harbour
Stormy water keeps me away
Stormy waters, I can't try any harder
And all I ask is to know
I'm near the bay
THE AIR THAT I BREATHE
The Hollies
If I could make a wish
I think I'd pass
can't think of anything i need....
no cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound
nothing to eat, no books to read
making love with you
has left me peaceful, warm and tired
what more could I ask
there's nothing left, to be desired
peace came upon me and it leaves me weak
so sleep, silent angel
go to sleep........
Sometimes
all I need is the air that I breathe
and to love you
all I need is the air that I breathe
just to love you
all I need is the air that I breathe.......
Peace came upon me
and it leaves me weak
so sleep silent angel
go to sleep.......
Sometimes
all I need is the air that I breathe
and to love you
all I need is the air that I breathe
yes to love you
all I need is the air that I breathe
just to love you...........
(Hicks / Clarke / Nash)
And the power you have over
won't ever let me be
It's always holding me to you
And the strange things you say to me
Why do you play with me
It's just too sad to see
Stop right there
Tell me what you're doing to my mind in there
Tell me what you're doing Am I blind
Long ago everything about you was for me to hold
Now my thoughts about you won't stay cold
And in time I might slip away
into the light of day
But with you I must stay it's true
Wishful thinking will just bring me down
It's plain to see you own
the ground I'm standing on
chorus
verse 2
She comes on like a rose
And everybody knows
She'll get you in dutch
Well you can look but you'd better not touch
Poison Ivy, Poison Ivy
Well late at night when you're sleepin'
Poison Ivy comes a creepin' all around
She's pretty as a daisy
But look out man she's crazy
She'll really do you in
if you let her get under your skin
Poison Ivy, Poison Ivy
Well late at night when you're sleepin
Poison Ivy comes a creepin' all around
Measles make mumpy
Mumps'll make you lumpy
Chicken pox will make you jump and twitch
Common cold'll cool you
Whooping cough will fool you
But Poison Ivy Lord will make you itch
You're gonna need an ocean ah
Of Calamine lotion ah
You'll be scratching like a hound
The minute you start to mess around
Poison Ivy, Poison Ivy
Well late at night when you're sleepin'
Poison Ivy comes a creepin' all around
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
Three o'clock in the morning
I got a pain in my heart
Lying awake I see you
just a shadow in the dark
Why do I fall in love with a girl like you
Stand by me and give me all your lovin'
Stand by me and give me tenderness
Wanna hold ya wanna touch ya
Stand by me and give me all your lovin'
Stand by me and let the good times roll
I will never let you go
Just stand by me
Looking out at the streetlights
Can they show me the way
To your heart they lead me
Won't you come on back and stay
Why do I fall in love with a girl like you
Stand by me and give me all your lovin'
Stand by me and give me tenderness
Wanna hold ya wanna touch you
Stand by me and give me all your lovin'
Stand by me and let the good times roll
I will never let you go
Stand by me
Stand by me
Come on and stand by me
Why do I fall in love with a girl like you
Why do I fall in love with a girl like you
Stand by me and give me all your lovin'
Stand by me and give me tenderness
Wanna hold ya wanna touch ya
Stand by me and give me all your lovin'
Stand by me and let the good times roll
I'm never gonna let you go
Stand by me

Head into the sun you ain't the only one
To miss the last train back to your life
Head into the sun all that the night has done
Will fade if you hang on really tight
There's always reasons for runnin' down the road
Everytime it snows
You know it's so easy to take the time to grow
You know this flight is
Heading into the sun riding a little bit higher
We are one we are one
Just begun song of the sun
Head into the sun you ain't the only one
To blow the first few bars of the tune
Head into the sun all that the night has done
Will fade if you move on really soon
There's always reasons for puttin on the wheels
Everytime it's real
You know it's easy to get into the feel
You know this flight is
Heading into the sun
Riding a little bit higher
We are one we are one
Just begun song of the sun
Break
There's always reasons for puttin on the wheels
Everytime it's real
You know it's so easy to get into the feel
You know this flight is
Heading into the sun
Riding a little bit higher
We are one we are one
Just begun song of the sun
Look through any window yeah, what do you see?
Smilin' faces all around rushin' through the busy town
(Where do they go) movin' on their way
Walkin' down the highways and the by-ways
(Where do they go) movin' on their way
people with their shy ways and their sly ways
Oh you can see the little children all around
Oh you can see the little ladies in their gowns when you
Look through any window yeah, any time of day
See the drivers on the roads pullin' down their heavy loads
(Where do they go) movin' on their way
Drivin' down highways and the by-ways
(Where do they go) movin' on their way
Drivers with their shy ways and their sly ways
Oh you can see the little children all around
Oh you can see the little ladies in their gowns when you
Look through any window yeah, what do you see?
Smiling faces all around rushin' through the busy town
(Where do they go)
Movin' on their way
Movin' on their way
Movin' on their way
Just another room
Just another town
Same old crazy people hanging around
Still you shine silently
Staring into space
Comin' down alone
Feel like packin' all my bags
And running home
Shine silently
Shine shine silently
I don't need no light in the darkness
Shine silently
No I won't get lost while your loves shines
Shines on me shines on me
People at the door
People on the phone
Same old story
No time on my own
Still shine silently
Nothing left to say
Nothing left to prove
When it's said and done
There's nothing left but you babe
Shine silently
chorus
Shine shine silently
I don't need no light in the darkness
Shine silently
No I won't get lost while your loves shines
(repeat)
(Ransford)
Walking down the street
standing looking at me
If you don't wanna know me
how happy I will be
Don't cross over the street to me
If you don't want my love
set me free
I see you walking by
love light in your eye
I just remember all those lies
So don't cross over the street to me
If you don't want my love set me free
Baby can't you leave me alone
Baby why don't you go on home
Baby don't you know that we are through
I don't need your love so set me free
Why don't you realise
that you and I are through
Every day I see you make me blue
So don't cross over the street to me
If you don't want my love set me free
If you don't want my love set me free
If you don't want my love set me free
Sandy
the aurora is risin' behind us
Those pier lights
our carnival life forever
love me tonight for I may never see you again
Sandy girl
my baby.
Sandy
the fireworks are hailin' over Little Eden tonight
Forcin' a light into all those stoney faces
Left stranded on this warm July
And the boys from the casino dance with their shirts open
Like Latin lovers on the shore
Chasin' all them silly New York virgins by the score.
Sandy
the aurora is risin' behind us
Those pier lights
our carnival life forever
love me tonight and I promise I'll love your forever
I mean it Sandy girl
oh my baby
Hey Sandy girl
my my my my baby.
Sandy
the waitress I was seein' lost her desire for me
I spoke with her last night
she said
She won't set herself on fire for me anymore
Did you hear
the cops finally busted Madame Marie
For tellin' fortunes better than they do
For me
this boardwalk life's through
You ought to quit this scene too.
Sandy
the aurora is risin' behind us
Those pier lights
our carnival life forever
Oh love me tonight for I may never see you again
Sandy girl
my my my baby
Hey Sandy girl
oh my baby
. . .
I walk the twilight zone beyond the city lights
In search of peace of mind I stole into the night
Tried to hide away from everything that threatened
My existence I showed resistance
Up there big brother's got his tabs on where I go
They tried to force me down a road where I can go
So you imagine, how I left when you said
"Baby, I can understand" touched my hand
You are my sanctuary when I'm in your arms, you take me away
You are my sanctuary when I'm in despair
I reach out and you're always there, you're always there
Beyond the skyways through the lookin' glass I roam
Into the never, never I found a star that glowed
And I descended on my last true wing and prayer
And you were standing there, the one that cared
You are my sanctary when I'm in your arms, you take me away
You are my sanctary when I'm in despair
I reach out and you're always there, you're always there
When there's no escaping and I panic in the night
I can run to you for cover 'cause you'll always make it right
You are my sanctuary when I'm in your arms, you take me away
You are my sanctuary when I'm in despair
I reach out and you're always there, you're always there
break
You are my sanctuary when I'm in your arms you take me away
You are my sanctuary
I gave you all girl I gave everything to you
But all the love I had
It wasn't good enough for you
Just for awhile
Just for awhile you took my heart
I want it back before you tear it apart
Your eyes I can read it in your eyes
All those long forgotten lies
I can see it in your smile
More and more everyday love is fading away in your eyes
And there was a time
A time when you needed my embrace
But now we're standin here
Like two strangers face to face
I feel alone
And after all the thrill has gone
I close the door 'cause you don't need me no more
chorus x4
