Whatever you want me to do I will do it for you
Whatever you want me to be I will be what you need
Because it's love that I feel whenever you're really near
I'm feeling sensual
I can't rely on myself, I'm wanting you and no one else
You've got me wrapped up
Cause times takes what love heals
Wherever you are I know it's for real
Whatever you want me to do, I will do it for you
Whatever you want me to be, I will be what you need
Because it's love that I feel whenever you're really near
I'm feeling sensual
And I, I know that it's real
I know you've had pains in your heart, that have torn you apart
I know you've been safe on your own, but together we're strong
Because it's love that I feel whenever you're holding me
I'm feeeling passionate
And I can't deny it in myself, I'm wanting you and no one else
You've got the power
Cause love takes what time steals
And deeep in my heart I know that it's real
Whatever you want me to do, I will do it for you
Whatever you want me to be, I will be what you need
Because it's love that I feel whenever you're next to me
I'm feeling sensual
I know (know), I know (I know) that it's real
Cause times takes and love heals
Wherever you are I know it's for real
I know, I know that it's real
Whatever you want me to do baby, baby, baby

Whatever you want me to be, yeah

Too easily, easily, baby

Album: What's Love Got To Do With It (93)
So who are you gonna turn to when the light is fading
Who are you gonna run to when the rain sets in
Who do you come to when the blues comes calling
Who are you trying to fool coming around here again
Yes, I heard you found a new plaything
Right now it seems you need a friend
Why don't you stay a while
Just till the night is through
Tell me you're lonely, baby, I'm lonely, too
So stay awhile
I'll stay ahile
All I ever wanted was a shoulder to lean on
And all you ever wanted was a dream that would last
Promises made in the heat of the moment
I know I never told you that was too much to ask
But it won't take much gentle persuasion
To make you remember, make me forget
You may not be a knight in white satin
Maybe the best was all in the past
Turn the lights low, lay down beside me
Just till the dawn, I don't want you to go
Tell me you want me
Baby, I need you too
Stay awhile
(E. Clapton, G. Phillinganes)

You know the sun is shining
It's raining in my heart
I don't know what to do
Since we've been apart
Why don't you tell me, babe
What is going on
You know I love you darling
Don't want to be alone
They're tearing us apart
They're breaking up my heart
I knew it from the start
Your friends are tearing us apart
You know I can't go on
Feeling this old way
You know my heart is burning
It's burning everyday
You know I love you, baby
No one else will do
Why don't you reconsider
Do what I want you to
They're tearing us apart
They're breaking up my heart
I knew it from the start
Your friends are tearing us apart

DUET WITH BRYAN ADAMS

Album: The Collected Recordings (94)
When the feeling is ended
There ain't no use pretending
Don't you worry, it's only love
When your world has been shattered
Ain't nothing else matters
It ain't over, it's only love
And that's all
When your heart has been broken
Hard words have been spoken
It ain't easy, but it's only love
And if your life ain't worth living
And you're ready to give in
Just remember that it's only love
Yeah, that's all
You can live without the aggravation
You gotta wanna win, you gotta wanna win
You keep looking back in desperation
Over and over and over again

Album: Twenty Four Seven (99)
This is the life you saved laid out before you
Everything that I think I have been and what I am now
Nothing can change the way I feel about you
Better we go on our separate ways
Nothing is left but the endless days
Nothing to cry but your name
Don't you look back, don't say a word
I will be lonely for you, I will be standing for you
Don't you despair
I will be there for you
I will be there
Maybe this time next year we'll be together
You can wipe away all of the tears, bring truth to the lies
There was a silent dream, we made a promise
We'd be there for each other forever
Aboard like a ship on an ocean's roar
Beating a path to your open door
Nothing will keep me away
Don't you look back, don't say a word
I will be lonely for ya, I will be standing for you
Don't you despair
I will be there for you
Each night I pray to God above
You will be waiting for me, you will be lonely for me
Don't you despair
I will be there for you
I will be there
Don't you look back, don't say a word
I will be lonely for ya, I will be standing for you
Don't you despair
I will be there for you
Farewell to you, goodbye for me
I will be waiting for you
I will be lonely for you
Don't you despair
'Cause I will be there for you
I will be there
If you want some loving,
that I can give to you.
And if you want some hugging,
said I can hug some, too.
All I want, baby, now
is some thought of you
and just a little of your affection,
you know, will see me through.
'CAUSE YOU KNOW THAT YOU ARE MY MAN,
AND I WANT YOU TO FOREVER BE MINE.
I IDOLIZE YOU (Yes, she idolize you)
I CAN`T STAND THE RAIN
AGAINST MY WINDOW
BRINGING BACK SWEET MEMORIES
I CAN`T STAND THE RAIN
AGAINST MY WINDOW
BECAUSE HERE`S NOT HERE WITH ME
HEY WINDOW PAIN
DO YOU REMEMBER
HOW SWEET IT USED TO BE
WHEN WE WERE TOGETHER
EVERYTHING WAS SO GRAND
NOW THAT WE`VE PARTED
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!
I can't sleep at night. I cat nap thru the day, cant go on much longer babe, I can't live this way.
Chorus: You know I'm crazy bout you baby and I wonder do you ever think of me. You know I'm wild about you baby, and you don't care, nothin in the world for me.
You know it ain't but one thing baby, sittin next to your favorite drink, but to hear you say you don't love me, then I begin to think, cause now you know I'm so crazy bout you baby...repeat chorus.

Can't you see, this is me
Can't you see, this is me
Don't walk crowded streets
Choose every dream from a magazine stand
I don't buy into that
All-day TV shows
Sell their souls just to make living easy
I don't buy into that
I don't need satin and lace, no no no
I'll bring a smile to your face
I'll never be a fire but I will be the flame
I'll never be a diamond but I'll never be fake, no
I've never been a winner but I still play the game
Can't you see that this is me
I'm all the woman that I wanna be
Can't you see, this is me (a woman)
Can't you see, this is me
Good times can't get enough
Life can be tough but it's all for a reason
I sure buy into that
Life goes around and around
We seek what we found 'cause it's all an illusion
I sure buy into that
I know the waters of fate, yeah, yeah
Will keep on flowing my way
I'll never be a fire but I will be the flame
I'll never be a diamond but I'll never be fake, no no
I've never been a winner but I still play the game
Baby can't you see that this is me
I'm all the woman that I want
I've never been affraid of myself
I don't buy into that, I don't buy into that
I don't wanna be nobody else
I don't buy into that, I don't buy into that, I don't buy into that
I'll never be a fire but I will be the flame (be the flame)
I'll never be a diamond but I'll never be fake (oh no no no)

Can't you see this is me

I was born by the river in a little tent
Oh, and like that river I've been running ever since
It's been a long, long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Oh yes it is
It's been too hard living and I'm affraid to die
I don't know what's up there beyond the sky
It's been a long, long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Oh yes it is
I go to the movies and I go around in town
Everybody there keeps telling me "don't hang around"
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Oh yes it is
Then I go to my brother
And I say "Brother, please"
But he just winds up, knocking me
Back down on my knees
Sometimes I thought I wouldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Oh yes it is

SOMETHING REALLY KINDA NEAT
AND ONE CAN TAKE A WALK IN THE MOONLIGHT
THINKING THAT'S IT'S REALLY NICE
BUT TWO LOVERS WALKING HAND IN HAND
A prisoner of your love entangled in your web
Hot whispers in the night, I'm captured by your spell, gotcha
Oh yes, I'm touched by this show of emotion
Should I be fractured by your lack of devotion
Should I, should I?
Oh, you better be good to me
That's how it's gotta be now
'Cause I don't have no use
For what you losely call the truth
And you better be good to me
Yeah, you better be good
Come on, come on
Be good to me
I think it's also right that we don't need to fight
We stand face to face and you present your case
Yes, I know, you keep telling me that you love me
And I really do wanna believe
But did you think I'd just accept you in blind faith
Oh, sure baby, anything to please you
But you better be good to me
That's how it's gotta be now
'Cause I don't have the time
For your over loaded lines
And you better be good to me
Yeah, you better be good, good to me
Be good to me
And I really don't see
Why it's so hard to be good to me
And you know, I don't understand
What's your plan that you can't be good to me
What I can't feel I surely cannot see
Why can't you be good to me
And if it's not real I do not wish to see
Why don't you be good to me
Why can't you be good to me?
Why can't you be good to me?
Why can't you be good to me?
Why can't you be good to me?
Why can't you be good to me?
Be good
Be good to me
'Cause I don't have no use
What you loosely call the truth
And I don't have the time
For your over loaded lines
So you better be good to me
Yeah, you better be good, better be good to me
Better be good
'Cause I don't have the time
For your over loaded lines
And I don't have no use
For what you loosely call the truth
And you better be good to me
Be good to me
Be good, be good to me
'Cause I don't have no use
What you loosely call the truth
And I don't have the time
For your over loaded lines
You better be good to me
Good to me
Better be good to me
Because, because of me
Good to me
Why can't you be good to me?
Why can't you be good to me?
C'mon, c'mon

In what other lives have I known your kiss
And what forgotten moments have I felt like this
The way you touch me I come undone
You know me more than anyone
Whatever you want
In what other lives have I touched your face
And what words did we whisper in a strange forbidden place
To be with you baby is to find myself
We're two of a kind, you and I
I couldn't love anyone else
You are my beggining, my end
You are my lover, my friend
In this life, in this time
Whatever you want, whatever you need
I will be right here waiting, baby baby baby
Whatever you want, whatever you need
I will be right here waiting, yeah yeah yeah yeah
In what other lives did I feel your skin
And when exactly did I breathe you in
Feel like I've known you for a thousand years
You're so familiar to me and there is no fear
You are my beggining, my end
You are my lover, my friend
In this life, in this time
Whatever you want, whatever you need
I will be right here waiting, baby baby baby
Whatever you want, whatever you need
I will be right here waiting, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Watch the sun go down, yeah yeah
My past and future in you are bound, oh yeah
I watch as time moves on, I'm alive and strong
And when I'm with you there's no right, no wrong
Whatever you want, whatever you need

B-side of the European "Missing You" single
If you really love me don't try to change me
If you look in the mirror, it's not me you see
I don't want what's yours as mine
No I'll never cross that line
I want you just the way you are
Boy you're everything I'm not
And that's all I've ever wanted
If we ever come close
If we ever discover
How to hold on and keep our faith in each other
The difference between us will keep us together
I tell you my love is everlasting
If you promise to give your best every moment
No, you don't have to compromise
Try to live each other's life
We can be ourselves tonight
If we ever come close
If we ever discover
How to hold on and keep our faith in each other
The difference between us will keep us together
If we open our eyes
Don't look any further
Cos we found all we'll ever need in each other
The difference between us will keep us together
So don't look at the words I've said
There's nothing that I might regret
No don't play games inside your head
Keep us, keep us
What's going on inside your head
Keep us, keep us
Keep us together
You know, every now and then
I think you might like to hear something from us
Nice and easy but there's just one thing
You see, we never ever do nothing nice and easy
We always do it nice and rough
So we're gonna take the beginning of this song and do it easy
Then we're gonna do the finish rough
This is the way we do 'Proud Mary'
And we're rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Listen to the story
Left a good job in the city
Working for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleeping
Worrying 'bout the way that things might have been
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
I pumped a lot of tane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
Until I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
Say, we're rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
I left a good job in the city
Working for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleeping
Worrying 'bout the way things might have been
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
Rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
Say, we're rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river, the river
I cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
And I pumped a lot of tane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
'Til I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, so we're rolling
And we're rolling on the river
I tell you, we're rolling, rolling
We're rolling on the river
If you come down to the river
I bet you gonna find some people who live
And you don't have to worry if you got no money
People on the river are happy to give
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling and we're rolling
And we're rolling on the river
Tell me one more time
(Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river)
(Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river)
(Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river)

There's something on my mind
Won't somebody please, please tell me what's wrong
You're just a fool, you know you're in love
You've got to face it to live in this world
You take the good along with the bad
Sometimes you're happy and sometimes you're sad
You know you love him, you can't understand
Why he treats you like he do when he's such a good man
He's got me smiling when I should be ashamed
Got me laughing when my heart is in pain
Oh no, I must be a fool
Cause I do anything you ask me to
Without my man I don't wanna live
You think I'm lying but I'm telling you like it is
He's got my nose open and that's no lie
And I, I'm gonna keep him satisfied
A wave of action speaks louder than words
The truest thing that I ever heard
I trust my man and all that he do
And I, and I do anything you ask me to

All of my life, all of my life
I've been searching for a love like ours
Somewhere to stay, somewhere safe in your arms
I was so sure
Are you really saying your heart's changing
Do you really mean goodbye
Don't leave me this way, no, no
Don't tell me it's over
We've only begun and our love is so young
You're leading me nowhere
Don't leave me this way
Don't leave me this way
Say what's on your mind, one thing at a time
And I promise you we'll talk it through
Don't walk away, there's so much more to say
Though my words seem lost on you
Can't believe you're talking like we're just friends
Can't you see the tears I cry
Don't leave me this way, no, no
Don't tell me it's over
We've only begun and our love is so young
You're leading me nowhere
Don't leave me this way
Don't leave me this way
Are you really saying your heart's changing
Do you really mean it this time
Baby
Don't leave me this way, oh no
Don't tell me it's over
We've only begun and our love is so young
You're leading me nowhere
Don't leave me this way
Don't leave me this way
No, don't tell me that it's over
We've only begun and our love is so young
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me, don't leave me this way (don't leave me this way)
Don't leave me, don't leave me this way (oh you're gonna leave me now)
Don't leave me, don't leave me this way
Don't leave me, don't leave me this way
Don't leave me this way
If you'll just take a little bit of time
You just might wanna change your mind
Don't leave me this way
Don't leave me this way
Remember when you used to say that I was always in your way
I was wasting your time and mine remember baby remember baby
You said my kiss was cold as ice
You never wanted to kiss me twice
Left me in the back door just cryin
Remember baby remember baby
But that was so long ago
I bet you can't do it no more
no more no more no more
I betcha can't kiss me just one time baby
Without asking me
Would you believe you'd be beggin me
For just a little bit more
I betcha can't kiss me just one time baby(3x)
Said I had a will in mind
But I dragged you lovin from behind
Told me to keep on tryin
Didn't you baby(4x)
I been waiting for the day
When I could look you straight in the eye and say
I'm ready to do my part
Take me baby(4x)
I sent you a note of graditude
Thanking you for what you made me do me do me do me do
I betcha can't kiss me just one time baby
Without asking me
You'll be down on your knees beggin me
For just a little bit more
I betcha can't kiss me just one time baby(5x)
Sock it to me sock it to me sock it to me baby(2x)
You must understand how the touch of your hand
Makes my pulse react
That it's only the thrill of boy meetin' girl
Opposites attract
It's physical
Only logical
You must try to ignore that it means more than that
Oh oh
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second hand emotion?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?
It may seem to you that I'm acting confused
When you're close to me
If I tend to look dazed I've read it someplace
I've got cause to be
There's a name for it
There's a phrase that fits
But whatever the reason you do it for me
Oh oh
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second hand emotion?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?
I've been takin' on a new direction
But I have to say
I've been thinkin' about my own protection
It scares me to feel this way
Ho oh
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second hand emotion?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?
(What's love?)
Got to do, got to do with it
What's love but a sweet old fashioned notion?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?
(What's love?)
Got to do
Huh, got to do with it
(What's love but a second hand emotion?)
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?
What's love?
(Ooh, ooh)
Got to do it
Got to do it
What's love?
TWO PEOPLE LIVING ON THE EDGE OF LIFE
ARE PEOPLE RUNNING OUT OF DREAMS AND TIME
I CAN HEAR IT WHEN YOU TELL ME SO
I CAN FEEL IT BUT I CAN`T LET GO
[CHORUS]
TWO PEOPLE GOTTA STICK TOGETHER
LOVE ONE ANOTHER
SAVE IT FOR A RAINY DAY
SOME PEOPLE GOTTA STAY WHATEVER
GIVE ONE ANOTHER
SHELTER ON A RAINY DAY
TWO PEOPLE LIVING IN THE WAY WE DO
ARE PEOPLE TRYING TO KEEP A LOVE A NEW
WHAT TO SAY TO MAKE SOME SENSE OF IT
WHAT TO DO TO MAKE THE FEELING FIT
[CHORUS]
I`LL COME RUNNING TO YOUR RESCUE
YOU GOTTA STAND BY ME
THERE`S ALOT OF LOVE BETWEEN US
WE SHOULD NEVER LET GO
Sunlight up the daytime
Oh she fell off the stck
Up in the daytime!
Relaxing by the Pool
Drinking a glass of champagne!
Chorus:
Just what you want in the Sunlight
Just in the light
In the daytime!
Sunlight fell on the stick
Dying now! Never gonna get sunlight again!
Dreams all taken away from me
I'm relaxing!
Chorus:
Just what you want in the Sunlight
Just in the light
A NIGHT IN TELEVISION WONDERLAND
ANOTHER FAIRYTALE ABOUT SOME RITCH BITCH
LYING BY THE SWIMMING POOL
IT`S THE GOLDEN SCHOOL
LIVING`S EASY WHEN YOU MAKE THE RULES
LAST FRIDAY WAS THE FIRST TIME

ON THE STAIRWAY
IT WAS CHILD`S PLAY
THE ODDS TURN TO EVEN
WHEN YOU GIE UP BELIEVING IN THE
COLD LAW, STEEL CLAW
TRY TO GET ON BOARD
YOU FIND THE LOCK IS ON THE DOOR
WELL I SAY `NO WAY...'
DON`T TRY TO KEEP ME OUT OR THERE`LL BE HELL TO PAY
I DON`T KNOW WHO`S RIGHT OR WHO`S WRONG
BUT IT DOESN`T REALLY MATTER WHEN YOU`RE LYING IN THE GUTTER
IT`S A SEE SAW
A LONG HOT BATTLE WITH THE COLD LAW
IS WHAT YOU GET FOR MESSING WITH THE STEEL CLAW
THE POLITICIANS HAVE FORGOTTEN THIS PLACE
EXCEPT FOR A FLYING VISIT IN A BLACK MERCEDES
NO ELECTION TIME
THEY CROSS THE LINE
AND EVERYBODY RUNS TO WATCH THE PANTOMIME
IF THEY COULD SEE WHAT`S GOING HERE AROUND THERE
SO MANY PEOPLE HANGING ON THE EDGE
CRYING OUT GOR REVOLUTION
RETRIBUTION
THE ODDS TURN OUT EVEN
WHEN YOU GIVE UP BELIEVING IN THE
SOMETIMES I THINK I`M GOING CRAZY
SOMETIMES I DO A LINE
MAKES ME LAUGH
MAKES ME WANT TO TAKE A JOYRIDE
ON THE HIGH TIDE
SOMETIMES I`M CONTEMPLATING SUICIDE
MEANWHILE EDDY`S ON THE WEST COAST
I HEARD HE`S SHACKING UP WITH SOME SWEET SENORITA
UP IN FRISCO YOU AND I KNOW
THE ODDS TURN OUT EVEN
Just lookin' for a new man
Out in the sunlight
Trying hard to impress myself!
Oh I'm seeing now what I'm really made out
Chorus:
I pumped up the Sun!
Rising on the time
Pumped up the Sun Yeahhh!
RISING!
On the life I made
I'm not doin' good!
Trying hard to look for a man
I have no luck on what I'm doin!
Every thing that I dream off
Will tommorrow dissappear
It all comes back to my heart!
Chorus:
I pumped up the Sun!
Rising on the time!
Pumped up the Sun Yeahhh!
Rising!
Rising on the time[Pumped up the sun]

FOR EVERY EMPIRE CRUSHED
THERE IS A NEW NATION
LET THE WATERS RISE
I HAVE RIDDEN EACH TIDE
FROM THE GATES OF THE CITY
WHERE THE FIRST BORN DIED
AND I MIGHT HAVE BEEN QUEEN
I REMEMBER THE GIRL IN THE FIELDS WITH NO NAME
SHE HAD A LOVE
OH BUT THE RIVERS WON`T STOP FOR ME
I`M A NEW PAIR OF EYES
AN ORIGINAL MIND
WITH MY SENSES OF OLD
AND THE HEART OF A GIANT
AND I`M SEARCHING THROUGH THE WRECKAGE
FOR SOME RECOLLECTION
THAT I MIGHT HAVE BEEN QUEEN
FOR EVERY SAGE THAT FALLS
THERE IS AN ANCIENT CHILD
AND I MIGHT HAVE BEEN QUEEN
I REMEMBER THE GIRL IN THE FIELDS WITH NO NAME
SHE HAD A LOVE
OOOOOH BUT THE RIVERS WON`T STOP FOR ME
NO, THE RIVERS WON`T STOP FOR ME
I LOOK UP TO THE STARS
WITH MY PERFECT MEMORY
I LOOK THROUGH IT ALL
AND MY FUTURE`S NO SHOCK TO ME
I LOOK DOWN BUT I SEE NO TRAGEDY
I LOOK UP TO MY PAST
A SPIRIT RUNNING FREE
I LOOK DOWN AND I`M THERE IN HISTORY
I`M A SOUL SURVIVOR
A SOUL SURVIVOR
ON THE RIVER
BUT IT WON`T STOP
I`M A SOUL SURVIVOR
ON THE RIVER
BUT IT WON`T STOP
I MIGHT HAVE BEEN QUEEN
I KNOW THE SECRET COMBINATION
SHOULD YOU STAY SHOULD YOU GO

I BLOW HOT I BLOW COLD
OO IT'S JUST THE DEVIL IN ME
YOU GOT TO UNDERSTAND I AM
IN LOVE WITH A BEAUTIFUL MAN
SO IF YOU'RE FEELING INSECURE
YOU'VE REALLY GOT NO CAUSE TO BE
I WANT YOU NEAR ME
DON'T TURN AWAY
JUST GOT USED TO HAVING YOU AROUND
I WANT YOU NEAR ME
COME ON HERE AND STAY
DON'T LET ME DOWN
YOU'RE SO GOOD WITH YOUR HANDS
TO HELP ME WITH A HOOK OR ZIP
INDISPENSABLE THAT'S WHAT YOU ARE

I WANT YOU NEAR ME
COME ON HERE AND STAY
I used to jump when you called
And I would cry when you leave
I had to plan every move
Just to keep you pleased
Now I don't care no more
About nothing you do, no
So I'm goin' shoppin'
Finger, fingerpoppin' on you
I got bags under my eyes
From losin' sleep
You gave me malnutrition
'Cause I just couldn't eat
But I don't care no more
About nothin' to do, no
But now I'm goin' shoppin'
Finger, fingerpoppin' on you
You never bought me no clothes
I had to steal what I wear
I wore shoes so long
Until my feet were bare
But I don't care no more
About nothin' to do, no
Because I'm goin' shoppin'
Finger, fingerpoppin' on you
I wash my dishes in a skillet
'Cause I didn't have a pail
Stoppin' no mama
I had to scrub with my hand
I don't care no more
About nothin' to do
Because I'm goin' shoppin'
Finger, fingerpoppin' on you
Finger, fingerpoppin', yeah yeah
Finger, finger
Finger, fingerpoppin' on you
But now I'm goin' shoppin'
Finger, fingerpoppin' on you
Oh my, one more time
You can run and you can hide
You can tell me you're untrue
You can play around with my feelings
Say you found somebody new
But there's one thing you can't do
You can't stop me loving you
You know I love you baby
Why do you treat me this way
I don't deserve this kind of treatment
And I'd have been so good like a lover should
And I'd have loved you anyway
You can run and you can hide
You can tell me you're untrue
You can play around with my feelings
Say you found somebody new
But there's one thing you can't do
You can't stop me loving you
You're gonna drive me crazy honey
Why are you so blind
Cool, aw you think you're so cool now, baby
But you just can't see all the love in me
When I give you all the time
I know I'm gonna be fine
You ain't gonna pull my chain
I ain't gonna change my mind
How do you feel baby
I bet you feel real tall
Why did you leave your manhunt, honey
When I give you love and it's not enough
And you try to make me look small

I'm feeling low, I tear out my hair
Walking 'round in circles like I don't care
One shoe off, the other one on
Cause I threw the damn shoe the night that you were gone
I'm in the mood, I'm in such a mess
My heart is broken and I'm in distress
Don't wanna eat, don't wanna sleep
'Cause I'm thinking 'bout the dirty way you treated me
I'm in no mood for company
You see I just don't want your pity
'Cause I call your name to drive me insane
And I feel the need to make my heart bleed
And baby I don't know why I'm drowning in tears
'Cause I don't wanna die
So I find myself another way to learn to live another day
Without you yeah
Looking down at the way I get dressed
I need to know is that why you left
My face is sweet but my head is wrecked
By the things that you said on the night you left
You can keep your sympathy
Because I just don't want your pity
'Cause I call your name to drive me insane
And I feel the need to make my heart bleed
And baby I don't know why I'm drowning in tears
'Cause I don't wanna die
So I find myself another way to learn to live another day
Without you
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
I can live without you, I'm telling you girl now
I can live without you, can you hear me
You know you can keep your sympathy
Because I just don't want your pity
'Cause I call your name to drive me insane
And I feel the need to make my heart bleed
And baby I don't know why I'm drowning in tears
'Cause I don't wanna die
So I find myself another way to learn to live another day
Without you baby
I call your name (I call your name) to drive you insane (to drive me insane)
'Cause I feel the need ('cause I feel the need) to make my heart bleed (to make my heart bleed)
And baby I don't know why I'm drowning in tears
'Cause I don't wanna die
So I find myself another way to learn to live another day
Without you baby
Tell me why? Why must we wait until tonight?
Tell me why? Why must we wait until tonight?
You wanna take a little time.
Wanna drink me like a fine wine.
Write the book of love line by line.
But I want to play with you, ooh...mmmm...right now.
Go all the way with you,baby...and show you how.
'Cause my body just can't say no.
and fingers just won't let go.
Tell me why? Baby. Why must we wait until tonight? Oh, yeah.
Tell me why? Why, when I've waited all my life?
You're touching me, I'm touching you...
Oooh, what should I do? Now tell me why, why must we wait 'till tonight?
You like to take it real slow.
Show me every little move you know.
Take a little love and watch it grow.
But I want to lay with you...darling.
Right now.
Make love all day with you baby.
And show you how...
Take my body, don't take my time.
Take your lips and make them mine.
Aaaaw.
Tell me why? Baby. Why must we wait until tonight? Oh, yeah.
Tell me why? Why, when I've waited all my life?
You're touching me, I'm touching you...

'Cause my body just can't say "no".
And my fingers just won't let go

Once in a lifetime you find
Someone to show you the way
Someone to make your decisions
But I let you lead me astray
Who did you think you were fooling
Said you were missing me blind
But the truth is I knew you were lying
You were using me time after time
When the heartache is over
I know I won't be missing you (missing you)
Won't look over my shoulder
'Cause I know that I can live without you
Oh live without you
Oh I can live without you
Time to move on with my life now
Leaving the past all behind
I can make my own decisions
It was only a matter of time
Sometimes I look back in anger
Thinking about all the pain
But I know that I'm stronger without you
And that I'll never need you again
When the heartache is over
I know I won't be missing you (missing you)
Won't look over my shoulder
'Cause I know that I can live without you
Oh live without you
Oh I can live without you
When the heartache is over
I know I won't be missing you
Won't look over my shoulder
'Cause I know that I can live without you
When the heartache is over
I know I won't be missing you (missing you)
Won't look over my shoulder
'Cause I know that I can live without you
Yeah I can live without you
Live without you

Out of the ruins
Out from the wreckage
Can't make the same mistake this time
We are the children
the last generation
We are the ones they left behind
And I wonder when we are ever gonna change it
Living under the fear till nothing else remains
We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the thunderdome
Looking for something we can rely on
There's got to be something better out there
Love and compassion, their day is coming
All else are castles built in the air
And I wonder when we are ever gonna change it
Living under the fear till nothing else remains
All the children say
We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the thunderdome
What do we do with our lives
We leave only a mark
Will our story shine like a life
Or end in the dark
Is it all or nothing

Looking counter clockwise
Knowing what could happen
Any moment maybe you
Maybe even you
Steadfast collapse
Always certain any moment
Maybe you maybe you
Maybe even you
Recline complete dreams too sweet
I can’t do it not with you
Not even with you
Maybe never with you
And I’d sell my soul for total control
Yeah I’d sell my soul for total control
Street wet tonight, lovers touch
It’s pure delight
Always certain any moment
Maybe even you
Stay in bed stained sheets
My head hurts I repeat
Maybe you maybe you
Maybe even you
And I’d sell my soul for total control
Yeah I’d sell my soul for total control
I’d sell my soul for total control
Over you, over you
Total control over you
TELL ME LAWYER WHAT TO DO
I THINK I`M FALLING IN LOVE WITH YOU
DEFEND ME, FROM THE WAY I FEEL
WON`T YOU GIVE ME SOME ADVICE
ON HOW TO HANDLE MY PRIVATE LIFE
I`M SURE THAT WE CAN MAKE A DEAL
I CONFESS I`M A FOOL FOR A MAN
WITH A CLEVER MIND
BUT YOUR INTELLECT AIN`T NO MATCH
FOR THIS HEART OF MINE
ALL I WANT IS A LITTLE REACTION
JUST ENOUGH TO TIP THE SCALES
I`M JUST USING MY FEMALE ATTRACTION
ON A TYPICAL MALE, ON A TYPICAL MALE
YOUR SENSE OF JUSTICE I`LL EMBRACE
BUT YOUR DEFENCE DON'T HELP MY CASE
I`M DEEP IN TROUBLE WITH THE LAW
SOMETHING ABOUT AUTHORITY
SEEMS TO BRING OUT THE BAD IN ME
HEY LAWYER, GOTTA CATCH ME WHEN I FALL
OH THEY SAY THAT YOU MATCH YOUR WITS
WITH THE BEST OF THEM
BUT I KNOW WHEN I`M CLOSE YOU`RE JUST
LIKE THE REST OF THEM
SO PUT YOUR BOOKS ASIDE
LOOSEN OFF THE SUIT AND TIE
OPEN OFF YOUR HEART AND LET ME IN
Everything's gonna be alright tonight
Everything's gonna be alright tonight
No one moves, no one grooves
No one talks, no one walks tonight
Tonight
Everyone will be alright tonight
Everyone will be alright tonight
No one moves, no one talks
No one thinks, no one walks tonight
Tonight
I will love you till I reach the end
I will love you till I reach the end
I will love you till I die
I will see you in the sky
Tonight, tonight
Everyone will be alright tonight
Everyone will be alright tonight
No one moves, no one talks
No one thinks, no one walks tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
He was my lover, he was working undercover
The fellow knew all of the moves
He really had me romping, bare footing stomping
He just kept igniting my fuse
He was blinded by the blackness of my long silk stocking
He would rock me with an optical illusion
And this ain't how I thought it'd be
He just kept on keeping me in a state of total confusion
He took me for a ride
And rattled me down to my shoes
But I found out
He was an undercover agent for the blues
He never really needed love from any direction no
I was just an innocent bystander
He just kept getting kinkier, hook, line and sinker
Just too hot to handle
He took me by storm
It must have been a season for the fools
So bad

I found a friend, someone to help me
And a place I can be myself when I'm in trouble now
I've lost it and I don't know how
I come to you 'cause you can show me
Get me back to the me I know with a remedy
Baby I need your therapy
With your healing kiss you know how to make my mind relax
I will listen to the words you say and just lie back
Talk to my heart that's where real talkin' starts
Words of love that cut straight to my heart
Reach out and touch, so few words say so much
I can hear you when you tell it like it is
When you talk straight to my heart
I guess it shows I need attention
Somehow you're asking all the right questions that I've gotta say
What's been on my mind these days
And I know you know just how to make my mind react
When it's coming straight from you that's my first point of contact
Talk to my heart that's where real talkin' starts
Words of love that cut straight to my heart
Reach out and touch, so few words say so much
I can hear you when you tell it like it is
When you talk straight to my...
I'm bad at making decisions
But being alone with you just feels so right, feels so right
I'm losing my inibitions
With every minute I share with you tonight, share it with you tonight
Talk, talk to me
To my heart, to my heart, oh yeah
Come one, come on and reach out
'Cause the words just mean so much
I can hear you
When you talk right to my heart
Talk to my heart that's where real talkin' starts
Words of love that cut straight to my heart
Reach out and touch, so few words say so much
I can hear you when you tell it like it is
When you talk straight to my heart
I can hear you, I can hear you

You think you’ve done it all but I’d like to make a bet
There’s so much more up ahead, you ain’t seen nothing yet
It’s gonna take a little time before the rain dies down
Till the storm is over you’ve got to stand your ground
You’ve got to be stronger than the wind
Got to be stronger
Stronger than the wind, it’s gonna take a little longer
Stronger than the wind
You know it could be worse, at least you’re not alone
There’s a million billion souls who haven’t even got a home
They haven’t any bills to pay and no letters to send
They just wait for judgement day, at least you got a friend
Come on be stronger than the wind
Got to be stronger
Stronger than the wind, it’s gonna take a little longer
Stronger than the wind
A tree stays rooted but a tree knows how to bend
Let the thunder and lighting flash above you
Right here on earth you got me to love you
You’ve got me to love you
Jus a little lovin'early in the mornin'
beats a cup of coffee for starting off the day.
Just a little lovin' when the world is yawning
makes you wake up feeling good things
are coming your way.
This whole world wouldn't be half that bad;
wouldn't be half that sad if each and
everybody in it have...
Just a little lovin early in the morning,
a little extra something to kind a see you through.
Nothing turns the day on, really get the dawning like a little bit of lovin'
from someone like you.
This whole world wouldn't be half that bad;
wouldn't be half that sad if each and
everybody in it have...
Just a little lovin early in the morning

Wash me!
I don't know why I love you like I do
With all the changes I keep going through
Lost all my money and my happiness
And I haven't had the worst of it yet
I wanna know, tell me, tell me why
I love it still
Take me to the river
Wash me down
Yeah, drop me in the water
Back to my fishing ground
And I don't know why they treat me so bad
Think of all the good things that I've never had
Love is an ocean I won't forget
My sweet sixteen I will never regret
I wanna know, won't you tell me, tell me why
I love it still
C'mon, river
Wet me down
Yeah, dip me in the water
Back to my fishing ground
And hold me, squeeze me
Just love me, and tease me
Till I can't, till I can't
Take it no more
I don't know why you treat me so bad
Think of all the good things that I've never had
Love's an ocean I won't forget
My sweet sixteen I will never regret
I wanna know, you tell me, tell me why
I love it still
Take me to the river
And dip me in the water
Take me to the river
Drop me in the water
Take me to the river
Drop me in the water
Yeah take me to the water
My fishing ground
Wash me, wet me
Squeeze me, and tease me
Everytime I think of you, I always catch my breath
And I'm still standing here, and you're miles away
and I'm wondering why you left
And there's a storm that's raging
through my frozen heart tonight
I hear your name in certain circles
And it always makes me smile
I spend my time thinking about you
and it's almost driving me wild
And there's a heart that's breaking
down this long distance line tonight
I ain't missing you at all (missing you)
since you've been gone away (missing you),
I ain't missing you (missing you)
No matter what I might say (missing you)
There's a message in the wire
and I'm sending the signal tonight
You don't know how desperate I've become
and it looks like I'm losing this fight
In your world I have no meaning
though I'm trying hard to understand
and it's my heart that's breaking
down this long distance line tonight
I ain't missing you at all (missing you)
since you've been gone away (missing you),
I ain't missing you (missing you)
No matter what my friends say (missing you)
there's a message that I'm sending out
via telegraph to your soul
and if I can't breach this distance
stop this heartbreak overload
I ain't missing you at all ...ow...(missing you)
since you've been gone away (missing you),
I ain't missing you (missing you)
No matter what my friends say (missing you)
I ain't missing you
I ain't missing you.. I can't lie to myself
And there's a storm that's raging
through my frozen heart tonight
I ain't missing you at all
I ain't missing you...missing you
I ain't missing you, oh no
I ain't missing you, I ain't missing you
I ain't missing you, I ain't missing you
I ain't missing you, I ain't missing you..
In the desert sun
Evey step that you take could be your final one
In the burning heat
Hanging on the edge of destruction
Mmm, you can't stop the pain of your children crying out in your head
They always said that the living would envy the dead
So now your gonna shoot bullets of fire
Don't wanna fight, but sometimes you gotta
You're some soul survivor
There's just one thing you've got to know
You've got ten more thousand miles to go
Because you're one of the living
And if we can't stick together
One of the living
Who's gonna make it tonight?
Yay, yay, yay, yahoo yahoo

Hey baby, won't you take a chance?
If you wanna, you can have a dance
Let's dance, let's dance
Do the twist and shout, mashed potato too
Any old dance that you wanna do
Let's dance, let's dance
Hey baby, now you're all alone
Hey baby, let me walk you home
Let's dance, let's dance
Do the twist and shout, mashed potato too
Any old dance that you wanna do
Let's dance, let's dance
Let's dance
Put on your red shoes and dance the blues
Let's dance
Dance to the song they're playing on the radio
Let's sway
While colour lights up your face
Let's sway
Sway through the crowd to an empty space
If you say run, I'll run with you
If you say hide, we'll hide
Watch my love for you
It would break my heart in two
If you should fall into my arms
And tremble like a flower
Let's dance
Let's dance
Let's dance, let's dance
Let's dance, let's dance

I’ve seen the way that you look at him,
When you think I’m not around,
And I’ve seen you try to catch his eyes,
And you think you’re gainin’ ground.
You know last night he told me,
Everything that you said,
You asked him if he gets lonely,
Well then get this through your head
Keep your hands off my baby,
Keep your hands off my baby,
Don’t you know you better give it up,
Give it up, give it up, give it up, give it up,
Don’t you know you better stop, better stop,
Leave my baby alone.
I’ve seen the way that you brushed back your hair,
I’ve heard your baby-talk,
I know just what you’re thinkin’ there,
Ooo, I’m watchin’ what you want.
You know it took a lot of patience,
To win my baby’s love,
Now you’re tryin’ my patience,
If you push, I’m gonna shove.
Keep your hands off my baby,
Keep your hands off my baby,
Don’t you know you better give it up,
Give it up, give it up, give it up, give it up,
Don’t you know you better stop, better stop,

From the "Summer Lovers" soundtrack
Johnny's always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Knows he tires easily
Johnny thinks the world would be right
If it could find truth for him
Mary says he changes his mind
More than a woman
But she made her bet
Even though the chance was slim
Johnny says he's willing to learn it
When he decides he's a fool
Johnny says he'll live anywhere
When he has time to
Mary combs her hair
Says she should be used to it
Mary always hedges her bets
She never knows what to think
She says that he still acts like he's
Being discovered
Scared that he'll get caught
Without a second thought
Johnny thinks he's wasting his prayers
Trying to make sense to her
Mary says he's lacking a real
Sense of proportion
So she combs her hair
Knows he tires easily
Johnny's always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Says he should be used to it
'Cause Mary's always running around
Running around, running around

You’re so crude
But you’re so nice
A boy like you could use some advice
You’re so cruel
But you’re so sweet
The way you’re lookin’
When you’re lookin’ at me
Well, I’m keeping my thoughts to myself
And with what I’m thinkin’
You know it’s just as well
I’m a lady
You can’t go messin’ around with my heart
I’m a lady
Now you need love
Cause your sweet talk
Won’t do a thing for me
I prefer my man sugar free
I’m a lady
You’re standing too close to me
A sure sign of immaturity
Young man you shouldn’t be so bold
And exercise a little self-control
Uh, remember that we just met
You need to learn to walk
Before you jump ahead
I’m a lady
You can’t go messin’ around with my heart
I’m a lady
And you’re attractive
But you don’t go saying things like that
You’re tryin’ to make me forget
I’m a lady
You should have no regrets
Though you lost out on me
And when your friends ask you who you met
You can tell them that she
That she
Was a lady
I’m a lady
I’m keepin’ my thoughts to myself
And with what I’m thinkin’
Yeah well maybe it’s just as well
Yeah
I’m a lady
I’m a lady
No your sweet talk won’t do a thing for me
I prefer my man sugar free
I’m a lady
Oh, yeah
Lyrics Directory Tina Turner lyrics Tina Turner EASY AS LIFE lyrics
Featuring Angelique Kidjo
(E. John, T. Rice)
Producer: Jean Hebrail
Album: Elton John and Tim Rice's Aida (99)
This is the moment when the gods expect me
To beg for help but I won't even try
I want nothing in this world but myself to protect me
But I won't lie down, roll over and die
All I have to do is to forget how much I love him
All I have to do is put my longing to one side
Tell myself that love's an ever-changing situation
Passion would have cooled and all the magic would have died
It's easy, it's easy
Until I think about him as he was when I last saw him
And how he would have been were I to be with him today
Tender in his manner and myself consolation
All I ever wanted and I'm throwing it away
It's easy, it's easy as life
All I have to do is to pretend I never knew him
On those very rare occasions when he steals into my heart
Better to have lost him when the ties were barely binding
Better the content of the familiar kind of start
It's easy, it's easy
And though I'll think about him until the earth draws in around me
And though I choose to leave him for another kind of love
This is no denial, no betrayal, but redemption
Redeemed in my allies and in the pantheon above
It's easy, it's easy, it's easy
When the earth was young and the air was sweet
And the mountains kissed the sky
In the great beyond, with its many paths
Man and nature lived side by side
In this wilderness of danger and beauty
Lived three brothers, bonded by love
Their hearts full of joy, they ask now for guidance
Reaching out to the skies up above
Great spirits of all who lived before
Take our hands and lead us
Fill our hearts and souls with all you know
Show us that in your eyes we are all the same
Brothers to each other
In this world we remain truly brothers all the same
Give us wisdom to pass to each other
Give us strength so we understand
That the things we do, the choices we make
Give direction to all life's plans
To look in wonder at all we've been given
In a world that's not always as it seems
Every corner we turn only leads to another
A journey ends, but another begins
Great spirits of all who lived before
Take our hands and lead us
Fill our hearts and souls with all you know
Show us that in your eyes we are all the same
Brothers to each other
In this world we remain truly brothers all the same
Great spirits of all who lived before
Take our hands and lead us
Fill our hearts and souls with all you know
Show us that in your eyes we are all the same
Brothers to each other
In this world we remain truly brothers all the same

You see me smile but you paint an ugly face
Everything you do is all about the chase
Don't let them see you cry
Don't let them know
You won't lay down and die for their show
Why don't you go ahead tear my heart out
Why don't you go ahead hang me out to dry
Go ahead play your game, go ahead
Spread my name all over your blood red sky
They colour your stars till the light begins to fade
But never give up 'cause every dog has its day
Don't let them see you cry
Don't let them know
You won't lay down and die for their show
Why don't you go ahead tear my heart out
Why don't you go ahead hang me out to dry
Go ahead play your game, go ahead
Spread my name all over your blood red sky
Go ahead
Why don't you go ahead, go ahead, go ahead
Why don't you go ahead hang me out to dry
I said go ahead play your game, go ahead play your game, go ahead play your game
Your blood red sky
Why don't you go ahead tear my heart out
Why don't you go ahead lay me out to dry
Go ahead
I said go ahead play your game, go ahead
Spread my name all over your blood red sky
Go ahead
Why don't you go ahead tear my heart out
Why don't you go ahead hang me out to dry
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go ahead and hang my heart out
I said go ahead and play your game, go ahead
Spread my name all over your blood red sky
Your blood red sky

Sirens are screamin are you listenen?
In the street glass is glistnen. It's a pertiful sight we're drinking tonight.
Walking in a ghetto wonderland.
In the ghetto we can build a crakhouse. And pretend that Busta Rhymes's
in town.
He'll say, "R u smokin?"
We'll say, "Naw man"
You can hook us up when u have time.
Later on we'll expire
As we hurl by the fire.
It's not a pertiful sight
when we're hurlin tonight
Livin in da ghetto Wonderland.
Really brings me down, I don't know how
That you can say you're not my kind
Couldn't find a cloud for miles around
Why do you change your story line
It all goes gray again sometimes I don't know when
To come out of the storm
It feels like forty days and forty nights I've been
Beating on your door
I'm falling like rain
Oh I, I love ya, love ya, love ya
Falling like rain
Oh I, I'm coming down around ya
I will always think about you
My sentimental ways don't seem to phase you
I don't ever wanna force your hand
If you met me one time, just half the way
I could meet you where you are
Just meet me where I am
Cause every now and then you've gotta drive right in
Deeper than deep
You take a chance and then you give the wheel a spin
Anyone can see
I'm falling like rain
Oh I, I love ya, love ya, love ya
Falling like rain
Oh I, I'm coming down around ya

All of my life, all of my life
I've been searching for a love like ours
Somewhere to stay, somewhere safe in your arms
I was so sure
Are you really saying your heart's changing
Do you really mean goodbye
Don't leave me this way, no, no
Don't tell me it's over
We've only begun and our love is so young
You're leading me nowhere
Don't leave me this way
Don't leave me this way
Say what's on your mind, one thing at a time
And I promise you we'll talk it through
Don't walk away, there's so much more to say
Though my words seem lost on you
Can't believe you're talking like we're just friends
Can't you see the tears I cry
Don't leave me this way, no, no
Don't tell me it's over
We've only begun and our love is so young
You're leading me nowhere
Don't leave me this way
Don't leave me this way
Are you really saying your heart's changing
Do you really mean it this time
Baby
Don't leave me this way, oh no
Don't tell me it's over
We've only begun and our love is so young
You're leading me nowhere
Don't leave me this way
Don't leave me this way
No, don't tell me that it's over
We've only begun and our love is so young
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me, don't leave me this way (don't leave me this way)
Don't leave me, don't leave me this way (oh you're gonna leave me now)
Don't leave me, don't leave me this way
Don't leave me, don't leave me this way
Don't leave me this way
If you'll just take a little bit of time
You just might wanna change your mind
Don't leave me this way
Don't leave me this way

Bought me a bottle of wine
I'm gonna drink it tonight
And you can join me
It's gonna make us feel alright
Don't rush the good things
Don't rush the good things in life
Don't rush the good things
Don't rush the good things in life
I'm gonna sip it slowly
I'm not gonna rock it back
I am no historier but I
I've learned from my past what I've learned
Don't rush the good things
Don't rush the good things in life
Don't rush the good things
Don't rush the good things in life
It's a slow job falling in love
It's a slow job
Falling in love it's a slow job
Don't rush good things tonight
You and me baby
No need to rush it tonight
Cause we got all the time in the world
Get it back, get it back
Get it back, get it back
Get it, get it, get it, get it

You don’t give out, you don’t give in
You never seem to be attracted to the sin
The sin of love, the sin of all above
I give you my advice, it can be nice
I know you can’t solve the problems of the world
But you don’t have to be a precious little toy
Do something, do something
I’ll wait a day, I’ll wait a week
And I don’t just wanna be dancing cheek to cheek
It’s serious, this thing I need to do
Win or lose, it’s all up to you
I can’t believe that you could let me go this far
It can’t be natural to be the way you are
Do something, do something
I’ve got this weakness, I’m losing power
I need your sweetness right here and now yeah
Deeper and deeper, hour after hour
I should be ruling but I’m not satisfied no, no
Not satisfied, I’m not satisfied
When I’m alone, can’t do it on the phone
Won’t let you go until I get just what I need
My heart is breaking oh baby baby please
Do something do something baby baby okay
Come on come on come on do something
Get down on your knees and do something
Oh baby, please, do something

If you really love me don't try to change me
If you look in the mirror, it's not me you see
I don't want what's yours as mine
No I'll never cross that line
I want you just the way you are
Boy you're everything I'm not
And that's all I've ever wanted
If we ever come close
If we ever discover
How to hold on and keep our faith in each other
The difference between us will keep us together
I tell you my love is everlasting
If you promise to give your best every moment
No, you don't have to compromise
Try to live each other's life
We can be ourselves tonight
If we ever come close
If we ever discover
How to hold on and keep our faith in each other
The difference between us will keep us together
If we open our eyes
Don't look any further
Cos we found all we'll ever need in each other
The difference between us will keep us together
So don't look at the words I've said
There's nothing that I might regret
No don't play games inside your head
Keep us, keep us
What's going on inside your head
Keep us, keep us
Keep us together
Quando eu era uma garotinha, eu tinha uma boneca de pano,
A única boneca que já possuí.
Agora eu te amo exatamente do modo que amava aquela boneca,
Mas só agora o meu amor se desenvolveu...
E isso fica mais forte, de todas as formas...
E isso fica mais profundo, deixe-me dizer...
E isso fica mais alto, dia a dia...
REFRÃO:
E eu te amo? Ai, oh, ai !
Sim, da profundidade do rio, da altura da montanha.
Se eu te perdesse, eu choraria?
Oh, como eu te amo, baby, baby, baby, baby...
Quando você era um garoto novinho,
Você teve um cachorrinho que sempre te seguia por aí?
Bem, eu serei tão fiel quanto aquele cachorrinho,
Não, eu nunca te desapontarei...
Pois isso fica mais forte, como um rio que flui... [1]
E isso fica fica maior, baby, e o céu sabe...
E isso fica mais doce, baby, conforme se desenvolve....

Eu te amo, baby, como uma flor ama a primavera,
E eu te amo, baby, exatamente como Tina ama cantar. [2]
E eu te amo, baby, como um colegial ama seu animal de estimação [3]

Oh, sim, você tem de acreditar em mim.

I was born by the river in a little tent
Oh, and like that river I've been running ever since
It's been a long, long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Oh yes it is
It's been too hard living and I'm affraid to die
I don't know what's up there beyond the sky
It's been a long, long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Oh yes it is
I go to the movies and I go around in town
Everybody there keeps telling me "don't hang around"
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Oh yes it is
Then I go to my brother
And I say "Brother, please"
But he just winds up, knocking me
Back down on my knees
Sometimes I thought I wouldn't last for long

And grab some peace of mind

Strength from you I’ll find
Like the ocean and the sunshine
I’ll keep trying till you’re all mine
Till the moment is right
I won’t give up the fight
I’ll keep pushing till I break through the barrier
Like a phoenix arises
Ain’t no mountain too high
I’ll keep pushing till I break through the barrier
Like the eyes of total strangers
Our future is unknown
In a world of hidden danger
Don’t want to be all alone
Like a rainbow and the starlight
I’ll keep holding on till you’re mine
Till the moment is right
I won’t give up the fight
I’ll keep pushing till I break through the barrier
Like a phoenix arises
Ain’t no mountain too high
I’ll keep pushing till I break through the barrier
When it seems that odds are all against you
Gotta reach inside and find the strength to pull you through

But did you ever, or is that your fantasy.
I'll miss you when you go,
But, no pain won't show
I'm free to search and go my way.
So bold, so bold and reckless.
I suppose you've been good to me
Maybe not enough to rock my sanity.
You never asked me questions,
And you never understood.
I'm free to search and go my way.
So bold, so bold and reckless.
So bold, yeah bold and reckless.
Well, I can't live in a cage,
I've just got to be free, dancin' and flyin' away.
But your always in my dreams, runin'
Yes, your always in my dreams, runin'
So we've been gettin' closer by degree
But, you won't ever bring me to my knees.
You'll never make me shy,
And you won't see me cry.
I'm still free to go my way.
So bold, so bold and reckless.

Yes, you were always in my dreams runin'
Always in my dreams.

Oh I'm waiting in the storm, ask me how I feel
When things are going wrong, why don't you ask me how I feel
The night is awful cold, ask me how I feel
You're much too loose to hold, why don't you ask me how I feel
I close my eyes to follow you
To my surprise you're so untrue
And I'm crying, I'm dying
Oh I'm waiting in the storm, ask me how I feel
When you keep me hanging on, why don't you ask me how I feel
The waters run so deep, ask me how I feel
When i don't get any sleep, why don't you ask me how I feel
And when you're down you lean on me
You're a fool, too blind to see
That I'm crying, I'm dying
Oh I'm waiting in the storm, why don't you ask me how I feel
What the hell is going on, why don't you ask me how I feel
When you stay out late at night, ask me how I feel
When you think that i'm uptight, why don't you ask me how I feel oh
You don't treat me tender no matter what I do
But I'm the great pretender
I'm waiting in the storm, ask me how I feel
What the hell is going on?
When you stay out late at night
You never ask me how I feel, you just say that I'm uptight
When you're down, I do for you
I bet you wonderin'
how I knew
'bout your plans
to make me blue
With some other guy
you knew before
Between two of us guys
you know I love you more
It took me by surprise
I must say
When I found you yesterday
Don't you know that
I heard it
through the grapevine,
not much longer
would you be mine
uhh uhh heard it
through the grapevine
Oh I'm just about
to lose my mind
Honey honey, oh baby
ooh ooh honey honey
I know a man
ain't supposed to cry
But these tears
I can't hold inside
Losin' you
Would end my life you see
Cause you mean
that much to me
You could have
told me yourself

Baby please come back to me
Sono umane situazioni
Quei momenti fra di noi
I distacchi ed i ritorni
Da capirci niente poi
Gia come vedi
Sto pensando a te...si...da un po'
They're just human contradictions
Feeling happy feeling sad
These emotional transitions
All the memories we've had
Yes, you know it's true
I just can't stop thinking of you
No I just can't pretend
All the time we spent could die
Wanna feel it again
All the love we felt then
Confinanti di cuore solo che ognuno sta
Dietro gli steccati degli orgogli suoi
Sto pensando a te
Sto pensando a noi
Sono cose della vita
Vanno prese un po' cosi
Some for worse and some for better
But through it all we've come so far
Gia...come vedi
Io sto ancora in piedi perche
Sono umani tutti i sogni miei
Con le mani io li prenderei, si perchè
What's life without a dream to hold?
Take my hand and never let me go
It's part of life together
But what future does it hold?
Sono cose della vita
Ma la vita poi dov'e
Yes, you know it's true
I just can't stop thinking of you
Questa notte che passa piano accanto a me
Cerco di affrontarla, afferrarla
If our hearts miss a beat
Or get lost like a ship at sea
I wanna remember, I can never forget
Can't stop thinking of you
Sto pensando a noi
Can't stop thinking of you
Can't stop
I call you when I need you, my heart's on fire
You come to me, come to me wild and wired
When you come to me
Give me everything I need
Give me a lifetime of promises and a world of dreams
Speak the language of love like you know what it means
ohh, it can't be wrong
Take my heart and make it stronger baby
You're simply the best, better than all the rest
Better than anyone, anyone I've ever met
I'm stuck on your heart, and hang on every word you say
Tear us apart, baby I would rather be dead
In your heart I see the stars of every night and every day
In your eyes I get lost, I get washed away
Just as long as I'm here in your arms
I could be in no better place
You're simply the best, better than all the rest
Better than anyone, anyone I've ever met
I'm stuck on your heart, and hang on every word you say
Tear us apart, baby I would rather be dead
Each time you leave me I start losing control
You're walking away with my heart and my soul
I can feel you even when I'm alone
Oh baby, don't let go
You're the best, better than all the rest
Better than anyone, anyone I've ever met
I'm stuck on your heart, and hang on every word you say
Tear us apart, baby I would rather be dead
Oh, You're the best...
Duet with Eros Ramazzotti

Sono umane situazioni
Quei momenti fra di noi
I distacchi ed i ritorni
Da capirci niente poi
Gia come vedi
Sto pensando a te...si..da un po'
They're just human contradictions
Feeling happy feeling sad
These emotional transitions
All the memories we've had
Yes, you know it's true
I just can't stop thinking of you
No I just can't pretend
All the time we spent could die
Wanna feel it again
All the love we felt then
Confinanti di cuore solo che ognuno sta
Dietro gli steccati degli orgogli suoi
Sto pensando a te
Sto pensando a noi
Sono cose della vita
Vanno prese un po' cosi
Some for worse and some for better
But through it all we've come so far
Gia... come vedi
Io sto ancora in piedi perche
Sono umani tutti i sogni miei
Con le mani io li prenderei, si perchè
What's life without a dream to hold??
Take my hand and never let me go
It's part of life together
But what future does it hold??
Sono cose della vita
Ma la vita poi dov'e
Yes, you know it's true
I just can't stop thinking of you
Questa notte che passa piano accanto a me
Cerco di affrontarla, afferrarla
If our hearts miss a beat
Or get lost like a ship at sea
I wanna remember, I can never forget
Can't stop thinking of you
Sto pensando a noi
Can't stop thinking of you
Can't stop
A one in a million chance
You know the moment that you crossed over the line
A casual glance
No one has to read between the lines
In the south of France it was spring time
Special feelings come alive
There's romance in the air, so they say
Love could be a small cafe away
Love is a piece of cake
And making love is all there is to eat
It's a heart out of a lamb
When yoy start to feel forever in a kiss
But you must remember there's no point of refuge
You only have a part in a lover's play
And you could be the one left in the dark
If someone takes a shortcut to your heart
All too soon you're touching for the last time
No one has to tell you how it is
It's just a memory two people share
I heard some news this morning
And it almost devastated me
It hit my heart without a warning
The story is on the street
I overheard a conversation it was all about you
I can't believe what they're saying baby, it better not be true
They say you know who is doing you know what
How am I supposed to feel
You know who is doing you know what
I thought our love was real
They say you can't believe everything you hear
But you've got me feeling insecure
I thought you and I had a good thing going
Now baby I'm not so sure
I'm gonna have mixed emotions when I see you tonight
I'm afraid I see the true story when I look in your eyes
They say you know who is doing you know what
Baby I've got to know
You know who is doing you know what
I don't wanna let you go
I don't wanna be jumping to conclusions
I would rather keep my trust in you
Is your love for me just an illusion
Baby tell me is it true
You know who is doing you know what
I've got to keep my courage up
You know who is doing you know what
You can run and you can hide
You can tell me you're untrue
You can play around with my feelings
Say you found somebody new
But there's one thing you can't do
You can't stop me loving you
You know I love you baby
Why do you treat me this way
I don't deserve this kind of treatment
And I'd have been so good like a lover should
And I'd have loved you anyway
You can run and you can hide
You can tell me you're untrue
You can play around with my feelings
Say you found somebody new
But there's one thing you can't do
You can't stop me loving you
You're gonna drive me crazy honey
Why are you so blind
Cool, aw you think you're so cool now, baby
But you just can't see all the love in me
When I give you all the time
I know I'm gonna be fine
You ain't gonna pull my chain
I ain't gonna change my mind
How do you feel baby
I bet you feel real tall
Why did you leave your manhunt, honey
When I give you love and it's not enough
The rooms were so much colder then
My father was a soldier then, the times were very hard
When I was young
When I was young
I smoked my first cigarette at ten
And for boys I had a bad yen, I had quite a ball
When I was young
When I was young
When I was young it was more important
Pain more painful, the laughter much louder, yeah
When I was young
When I was young
I met my first love at thirteen
He was brown and I was pretty green, I learned quite a lot
When I was young
When I was young
When I was young it was more important
Pain more painful, the laughter much louder, yeah
When I was young
My faith was so much stronger then
I believed in fellow men, and I was so much older then
When I was young
When I was young
When I was young
Whatever you want me to do, I will do it for you
whatever you want me to be, I will be what you need
because it's love that I feel whenever you're really near
I'm feeling sensual
I can't rely on myself, I'm wanting you and no one else
you've got me wrapped up
'Cause time takes what love heals
and deep in my heart I know it's for real
Whatever you want me to do, I will do it for you
whatever you want me to be, I will be what you need
because it's love that I feel whenever you're really near
I'm feeling sensual
and I, I know that it's real
I know you've had flames in your heart
that have torn you apart
I know you've been saved from your own
but together we're strong
because it's love that I feel whenever you're holding me
I'm feeling passionate
'cause time takes what love steals
and deep in my heart I know that it's real
Whatever you want me to do, I will do it for you
whatever you want me to be, I will be what you need
because it's love that I feel whenever you're next to me
I'm feeling sensual
I know, I know that it's real...oohhh
whatever you want me to do....do, do,...oohh
'cause time takes and love heals
wherever we are, I know it's for real
I know, I know that it's real
Whatever you want me to do baby, baby, baby
I will do darling, do it for you
whatever you want me to be..yeah, I will be everything
because it's love that I feel whenever you're really near
I'm feeling sensual
It's time that I'm free of a love that pleases me
SOME BOYS GOT THE LOOK OF THE GREEK ADONIS
SOME BOYS TRY TALK YOU OFF YOUR FEET
SOME BOYS THINK THEY`RE GODS GIFT TO WOMEN
SOME BOYS THINK THEY`RE SWEET ENOUGH TO EAT
TRY TO CHANGE THE HABIT OF A LIFETIME
DON`T EVEN TRY
`COS WHEN YOU CUT DOWN DEEPER THAN THE ICING
YOU REALISE
WHAT YOU GET IS WHAT YOU SEE
AIN`T NOTHING MORE TO IT
AND IF YOU WANNA LOVE A WOMAN LIKE ME
IT TAKES A MAN TO DO IT
IF WHAT YOU GET IS WHAT YOU SEE
WHEN I DON`T WANT YOUR KIND OF LOVE
SOME GUYS GOT LIPS THAT YOU CAN`T HELP KISSING
SOME GUYS GOTTA SMILE THAT YOU CAN`T RESIST
SOME GUYS GOTTA BUILD A REPUTATION
THEY JUST WANNA ADD YOU TO THE LIST
YOU GOTTA LOT OF PHYSICAL ATTRACTION
I CAN`T DENY
BUT CAN YOU GUARANTEE ME SATISFACTION
WELL I`M STILL WAITING, WAITING, WAITING, WAITING, WAITING
SO LET ME SEE YOUR CARDS ON THE TABLE
BEFORE I BUY
I ALWAYS READ THE WRITING ON THE LABEL
SO GIVE ME REASON TO BELIVE THERE`S MORE TO YOU
THAN MEETS THE EYE
THERE`S NOTHING MORE TO IT
IT TAKES A MAN, TAKES A MAN
I DON`T WANT YOUR KIND OF LOVE
OUT OF THE RUINS
OUT FROM THE WRECKAGE
CAN`T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE THIS TIME
WE ARE THE CHILDREN
THE LAST GENERATION
WE ARE THE ONES THEY LEFT BEHIND
AND I WONDER WHEN WE ARE EVER GONNA CHANGE
LIVING UNDER THE FEAR, TILL NOTHING ELSE REMAINS
WE DON`T NEED ANOTHER HERO
WE DON`T NEED TO KNOW THE WAY HOME
ALL WE WANT IS LIFE BEYOND
THUNDERDOME
LOOKING FOR SOMETHING
WE CAN RELY ON
THERE`S GOTTA BE SOMETHING BETTER OUT THERE
LOVE AND COMPASSION
THEIR DAY IS COMING
ALL ELSE ARE CASTLES BUILT IN THE AIR
AND I WONDER WHEN WE ARE EVER GONNA CHANGE
LIVING UNDER THE FEAR TILL NOTHING ELSE REMAINS
ALL THE CHILDREN SAY
WE DON`T NEED ANOTHER HERO
WE DON`T NEED TO KNOW THE WAY HOME
ALL WE WANT IS LIFE BEYOND
THUNDERDOME
SO WHAT DO WE DO WITH OUR LIFES
WE LEAVE ONLY A MARK
WILL OUR STORY SHINE LIKE A LIGHT
OR END IN THE DARK
GIVE IT ALL OR NOTHING
WE DON`T NEED ANOTHER HERO
WE DON`T NEED TO KNOW THE WAY HOME
ALL WE WANT IS LIFE BEYOND
BABY I NEED A HAND TO HOLD TONIGHT
AND ONE BRIGHT STAR TO REMIND ME
HOW DEAR IS THIS LIFE
BABY I'VE NEVER KNOWN ANYONE LIKE YOU
THERE'S SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL ABOUT YOU
I CAN'T IMAGINE LIVING WITHOUT YOU
IT'S THE WAY OF THE WORLD AND IT'S MOTION
AND NO OCEAN CAN KEEP US APART
WHEN THE MOMENT IS RIGHT
AND YOU'RE HOLDING ME TIGHT
YOU CAPTURE THE BEAT OF MY HEART
IN MY HEART THERE'S A FIRE THAT'S BURNING
AND THERE ISN'T A THING I CAN DO
I'M RESIGNED TO THE FACT
THAT THERE'S NO TURNING BACK
AND I'LL NEVER REGRET LOVING YOU
BABY I WILL GO ANYWHERE YOU LEAD
AS LONG AS YOU'RE THERE BESIDE ME
BABY THAT'S ALL I NEED
HOLD ME HOLD ME AND NEVER LET ME GO
I'M ALWAYS GONNA CARE ABOUT YOU
I NEVER WANT TO BE WITHOUT YOU
IT'S THE WAY OF THE WORLD AND IT'S MOTION
AND NO OCEAN CAN KEEP US APART
WHEN THE MOMENT IS RIGHT
AND YOU'RE HOLDING ME TIGHT
YOU CAPTURE THE BEAT OF MY HEART
IN MY HEART THERE'S A FIRE THAT'S BURNING
AND THERE ISN'T A THING I CAN DO
I'M RESIGNED TO THE FACT
THAT THERE'S NO TURNING BACK
AND I'LL NEVER REGRET LOVING YOU
YOU'RE EVERYTHING I BELIEVE IN
DON'T EVER LOSE THE FEELING
DON'T EVER LOSE THE FEELING NO
IT'S THE WAY OF THE WORLD AND IT'S MOTION
AND NO OCEAN CAN KEEP US APART
WHEN THE MOMENT IS RIGHT
Baby, baby, baby
I know that I've been mad in love before
but how I can be with you
You really hurt me baby, you really cut me baby
How could you have a day without a night
you're the book that I have opened
and now I've gotten so much more
Baby, baby
The curiousness of your potential kiss
has got my mind and body aching
You really hurt me baby, you really cut me baby
How could you have a day without a night
you're the book that I have opened
and now I've gotten so much more...ohhh
oh, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Like a soul without a mind, and a body without a heart
and I'm every missing every part..heyyyyeah
Heyyyyiiii,
Like a soul without a mind, and a body without a heart
and I'm every missing every part
Like a soul without a mind, and a body without a heart
and I'm every missing every part
Like a soul without a mind, and a body without a heart
and I'm every missing every part
You really hurt me baby, you really hurt me baby
Like a soul without a mind, and a body without a heart
I'm missing every part
Some folks say there's a price on love
Watch your freedom go, watch your freedom go
Just can't breathe when you're hand in glove
Watch your freedom go
Baby, I don't know
But how can they mean it?
How come they give it up?
How long until they see
The modern laws of loving don't apply to me
Twenty four seven, stay here with me
Twenty four seven, throw away the key
Twenty four seven, I don't wanna be free
You get by if you kiss and tell
Hear the people say hear the people say
Two strong hearts gotta share one cell
Hear the people say but it ain't my way
How can they mean it?
How come they add it up?
I'll give my heart and my soul
If loving you is prison, I don't need parole
Twenty four seven, stay here with me
Twenty four seven, throw away the key
Twenty four seven, I don't wanna be free free free
Twenty four seven, around the clock
Twenty four seven, I never want it to stop
Twenty four seven, um here with me
I'm gonna count the time
That you're gonna be mine
Seven days a week
Twenty four hours ain't enough for me
How can they mean it?
How come they add it up?
I'm gonna give my heart and my soul
If loving you is prison, I don't need parole
Twenty four seven, stay here with me
Twenty four seven, throw away the key
IT`S TIME TO FACE THE MUSIC
TONIGHT I CAME TO USE IT
YOU NEVER KNOW
WHO YOU`RE GONNA MEET IN THERE
I THOUGHT I`D NEVER FIND HIM
THE DARK AND HANDSOME KIND
I USED TO DREAM OF
AND NOW YOU`RE STADING THERE
THOUGH YOU`RE LOOKING GOOD TO ME
IT DOESN`T MEAN THAT YOU CAN DO AS YOU PLEASE
OH BABY YOU`RE THE BEST THING IN MY LIFE
BUT A ONE TRACK MIND IS WHAT YOU GOT
OH BABY YOU`RE MY BEST BET HERE TONIGHT
AND A ONE TRACK MIND IS WORTH ALOT
I`VE GOT NO GOOD REASON TO BELIEVE WELL LAST FOR LONG
BUT THAT`S GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME TILL THE RIGHT MAN COMES ALONG
I`VE WAITED FOR A LOVER
THE KIND WHO`LL STAY FOREVER
YOU LOOK TO ME
LIKE THE SORT OF MAN I NEED
IT`S NOT THE BEST SCENARIO
BUT NOW I`VE FOUND YOU I`M NOT LETTING YOU GO
OH BABY YOU`RE THE BEST THING IN MY LIFE
BUT A ONE TRACK MIND IS WHAT YOU GOT
OH BABY YOU`RE MY BEST BET HERE TONGHT
AND A ONE TRACK MIND IS WORTH ALOT
FOR THE PERFECT GUY MAYBE I SHOULD HOLDING ON
AND WITH YOU I COULD TILL THE RIGHT MAN COMES ALONG
Let me tell you about a man I knew...
yeah, I knew him all too well
huh, my attitude has always been
you can have me for tonight, not for tomorrow
it's gonna cost you plenty yeah,
more than you can afford or you can borrow
Well I can make'm fall in love
just as easy as I pick their pockets hey
and when I've done the deed
I jump on a freight train and make my getaway
I'm a thief of hearts, a burglar in the night
before they knew what hit them I was out of sight
Been a thief of hearts, now I'm paying for my crimes
cause now you've gone and stolen mine
Yeah, I met you on a starry night, full moon in your eyes
did something strange to me
I was all prepared to spin my web, take you for a ride
there was a fork in the street
Well I didn't mean to fall in love,
didn't practice the rules that I've been taught
You never get involved, never drop your defences
but this time I got caught
I'm a thief of hearts, a burglar in the night
before they knew what hit them I was out of sight
Been a thief of hearts, now I'm paying for my crimes
cause now you've gone and stolen mine
Thief of hearts, paying for my crimes
Thief of hearts, and now you've gone and stolen mine
Feel so good I want more, it should be against the law yeah
I'm a thief of hearts, a burglar in the night
before they knew what hit them I was out of sight
Aahhhhh, thief of hearts, a burglar in the night
before they knew what hit them I was out of sight
Been a thief of hearts, now I'm paying for my crimes
cause now you've gone and stolen mine
Thief of hearts, I've been a thief of hearts
Thief of hearts
Been a thief of hearts, a burglar in the night
before they knew what hit them I was out of sight
Been a thief of hearts, now I'm paying for my crimes
cause now you've gone and stolen mine
I call you, when I need you my heart's on fire
You come to me, come to me, wild and wild
You come to me
Give me everything I need
Give me a lifetime of promises and a world of dreams
Speak the language of love like you know what it means
And it can't be wrong, take my heart
And make it strong, baby
You're simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I ever met
I'm stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Tear us apart
Baby, I would rather be dead
In your heart I see the start of every night and every day
In your eyes, I get lost, I get washed away
Just as long as I'm here in your arms
I could be in no better place
You're simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I ever met
I'm stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Oh, tear us apart, no, no
Baby, I would rather be dead
Each time you leave me I start losing control
You're walking away with my heart and my soul
I can feel you even when I'm alone
Oh, baby, don't let go
Oh, you're the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I ever met
I'm stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Oh, tear us apart, no, no
Baby, I would rather be dead
You're the best
You're simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I ever met
I'm stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Oh, tear us apart, no, no
Baby, I would rather be dead
Oh, you're the best
You're better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I ever met
I WAS THINKING ABOUT PARKING THE OTHER NIGHT
WE WAS OUT ON THE BACK ROAD
ME AND MY WOMAN WAS JUST GETTIN' RIGHT
OUR SYSTEMS ON OVERLOAD
THE RADIO BLASTING IN THE FRONT SEAT
TURNING OUT THE MUSIC FINE
WE WAS SNUGGLED UP IN THE BACK SEAT
MAKING UP FOR LOST TIME
STEAMY WINDOWS - ZERO VISIBILITY
STEAMY WINDOWS - COMING FROM THE BODY HEAT
YOU CAN WINE AND DINE A WOMAN ALL NIGHT
WITH GOOD INTENTIONS
BUT THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT COMPETITION ON A BACK ROAD
BREAKS DOWN THE DEFENCES
STEAMY WINDOWS - AIN'T NOBODY CAN SEE
STEAMY WINDOWS - COMING FROM THE BODY HEAT
THERE'S A SOUND OUTSIDE THE FRONT DOOR
AND I KNOW IT'S JUST THE WIND
BUT IT MAKES HER SNUGGLE UP JUST A LITTLE BIT CLOSER
AND IT STARTS THINGS HAPPENING AGAIN
STEAMY WINDOWS - ZERO VISIBILITY
STEAMY WINDOWS -COMING FROM THE BODY HEAT
Tears will leave no stains
Time will ease the pain
For every life that fades
Something beautiful remains
We're living in world, stars and dust
Between heaven 'n all that surrounds us
We're travellers here, spirits passing through
And the love we give, is all that will endure
Hey now, what we had is gone
But I still remember you
Just like a rose after the rain
Something beautiful remains
Tears will leave no stains
Time will ease the pain
For every life that fades
Something beautiful remains
Now the darkness falls
sun's going down
one by one, the stars are coming out
tide comes in, washes footprints from the sand
one day ends, a new day must begin
Hey now, though we are apart
You're forever in my dreams
Hey now, love is lost again
(What u gonna do about it,
what u gonna say)
Something beautiful remains
Tears will leave no stains
Time will ease the pain
For every life that fades
Something beautiful remains
And you wonder sometimes how we carry on
When you've lost the love the knew
But it's alright, it's alright
To your own heart be true
Tears will leave no stains
Time will ease the pain
For every life that fades
I MADE A RESOLUTION
AND A PLAN TO DO MY WORK
BUT I NEED YOU TO MAKE IT WORK
YOU`VE GOT TO READ THE MESSAGE
UNDERSTAND WHAT`S ON MY MIND
CAUSE NOT TO SEE WOULD BE A CRIME
AND WE COULD LOOSE IT ANYTIME
WE`VE GOT TO SHOW SOME RESPECT
WE`VE GOT TO LEARN TO PROTECT
DON`T TAKE IT FOR GRANTED I KNOW
THAT IF YOU WANT TO STAY CLOSE
WE`VE GOT TO SHOW SOME RESPECT
BUT I BELIEVE IN WORKING
THEN I BELIEVE IN A LITTLE HELP
CAUSE I`M NOT LIGHT UNTO MYSELF
WITHOUT A THING OF VALUE
WHY SETTLE FOR SECOND BEST
WE DON`T KNOW WHAT`S UP AHEAD
WE CAN`T LET OURSELVES FORGET
FOR THE THINGS THAT I LOVE ABOUT YOU
FROM THE WOMAN THAT YOU SEE INSIDE
DON`T LET IT WALK OUT THE DOOR
When I was a little girl, I had a rag doll
Only doll I?ve ever owned
Now I love you just the way I loved that rag doll
Only now my love has grown
It gets stronger in every way
It gets deeper, let me say
It gets higher day by day
Do I love you my, oh, my?
As river deep, mountain high, yeah, yeah
If I lost you would I cry?
Oh, how I love you baby, baby, baby, baby?
Oh, when you were a young boy, did you have a puppy?
Always followed you around
Well, I?m gonna be as faithful as that puppy
No, I?ll never let you down
It goes on and on like a river flows
And it gets bigger baby, and Heaven knows
It gets sweeter baby, as it grows
Do I love you my, oh, my?
Like river deep, mountain high, yeah, yeah
If I lost you would I cry?
Oh, how I love you baby, baby, baby, baby?
I love you baby, like a flower loves the spring
And I love you honey, oh, like a robin loves to sing
Oh, I love you babe, like a schoolboy loves his bag
And I love you honey, river deep, mountain high
Baby, baby
Do I love you my, oh, my?
I said, as river deep, mountain high, yeah, yeah
If I lost you, would I cry?

Ask me no questions
I'll tell you no lies
Come to me when you're down
I'll give you friendly advice
I'll be your avenue
Your trusting ear
Release your deepest secrets
I'll be sincere
It's an age old situation
There's nothing to fear
Whatever life throws at you
Your friend is here
Right by your side
When love leaves you cold
Lies have been told
I will be there with my open arms
Hurting inside
Please don't hide the pain
I will be there with my open arms
Open arms, open arms, open arms
I know what you're saying
I been there myself
Promises withstand
They left me for someone else
Then the tables turned
A lesson I've had to learn
I can't point my fingers 'cause girls
My fingers have been burned
It's an age old situation
The message is clear
Whatever life throws at you
Your friend is here
Right by your side
When love leaves you cold
Lies have been told
I will be there with my open arms
Hurting inside
Please don't hide the pain
I will be there with my open arms
Open arms, open arms, open arms
It's an age old situation
The message is clear
Whatever life throws at you
Your friend is here
Right by your side
When love leaves you cold
Lies have been told
I will be there with my open arms
Hurting inside
Please don't hide the pain
I will be there with my open arms
When love leaves you cold
Lies have been told
I will be there with my open arms
Hurting inside
Please don't hide the pain
I will be there with my open arms
Open arms, open arms, open arms
I will be there with my open arms
There was a time when I would have followed you
to the ends of the earth
I was willing to share it all with you
the love, the hurt
I've seen you when your dreams
were falling in the dust
But I never stopped believing in you
I always thought our love was strong enough
One you could hold on to...ohhh
You never see it coming
You just let it fly
on silent wings, silent wings
You can't hide what you you feel inside
and the fire has left your eyes
silent wings
I can see us in our dreams and we're dancing
I can almost hear the song
But the prayers, they go unanswered
but we both know, we're just hanging on
oooh, I feel the shame
but I'll never know the reason why
the rug was pulled so gently from under my feet
I only know that something good has died
between you and me, oh it's just a memory
You never see it coming
You just go separate ways
silent wings, silent wings
No more promises to break
oh our love has slipped away
silent wings
You never see it coming
but you know it has to end
silent wings, silent wings
I will never be the same again
I feel the whisper of the wing
silent wings
Silent wings...ohhh
Silent wings...ohhh
No more promises to break
oh our love has slipped away
silent wings
I will never be the same again
I feel the whisper of the wing
silent wings ....ohhh

YOU CAN'T COP NO BAIL
SALT PORK AND MOLASSES
IS ALL YOU GET IN JAIL
THEY CALL IT
NUTBUSH OH NUTBUSH
CALL IT NUTBUSH CITY LIMITS
LITTLE OLD TOWN IN TENNESSEE
THAT'S CALLED A QUIET LITTLE OLD
COMMUNITY
A ONE-HORSE TOWN YOU HAVE TO
WATCH
WHAT YOU'RE PUTTIN' DOWN IN OLD
NUTBUSH
THEY CALL IT
NUTBUSH OH NUTBUSH
THERE`LL BE A STORM ONE NIGHT
THEN I WILL FLY TO YOU FOR SHELTER
SOAKED IN WELCOME RAIN
FALLING TO FORBIDDEN ARMS
TOO BREATHLESS
TOO HELPLESS
TOO RESTLESS TO EXPLAIN
NEEDING YOU...
THERE`LL BE A STORM ONE NIGHT
BY YOU WILL FIND MY PLACE OF HIDING
WE`LL WATCH THE LIGHTS LIKE CHILDREN
LEAVE THE FORTRESS HAND IN HAND
I`LL BE THUNDER
YOU`LL BE LIGHTNING
AND WE`LL COLLIDE ON DRY LAND
THERE`LL BE A STORM ONE NIGHT
AND I WILL FIND NO OTHER RESCUE
LOST AND FAR FROM HOME
CRYING FOR SOME GUIDING LIGHT
TOO RECKLESS
TOO HELPLESS
TO HUNGRY TO REFRAIN
FROM NEEDING YOU
THERE`LL BE A STORM ONE NIGHT
THE WIND WILL DRIVE ME TO YOUR CASTLE
AND YOU`LL IGNITE THE FIRE
JUST AS IF EVERYTHING WERE PLANNED
I`LL BE THUNDER
YOU`LL BE LIGHTNING
AND WE`LL COLLIDE ON DRY LAND
NO BETRAYAL
NO DENIAL, NO NEED TO EXPLAIN
Should've never made eye contact
Should've been a heart of stone
When you stopped me to say hello
Would've been twice as easy
To just say no
Cause I don't wanna lose at love again
But as a couple we were quite handsome
And the moon was out that night
So we let our hearts go dancing
If that thing is missing in my life
There's not enough romance in this world
There's not enough romance in this world
There's too many people thinking only of themselves
You gotta give love for its return
Wanna sing about new lovers
Stand up against the odds
Nothing can change a thing that strong
And myself I know my emotions
I got my love to share
And when you need something so tender
What you're looking for is so rare
There's not enough romance in this world
There's not enough romance in this world
You gotta believe in what your heart tells you is right
And i'm here to say that i believe in love
We take a lot of chances playing some foolish games
But that's the only price that you gotta pay
We gotta keep believing hungry hearts run free
Everybody needs a good loving
Last night we tried to touch but we never got close
Last night we tried to talk, the words got caught in our throats
When we finally fell asleep
We couldn't have been further apart
Look me in the heart
If you think that love is blind
Baby look me in the heart
And you'll see that I'm so crazy about you baby
And it's not in my mind
Can't you look me in the heart
Look me in the heart
You try to say that I'm hiding from you
You act like a spy always looking for clues
You've read about my past
But why don't we try to make a new start
Look me in the heart
If you think that love is blind
Baby look me in the heart
And you'll see that I'm so crazy about you baby
And it's not in my mind
Can't you look me in the heart
Look me in the heart
Remember how good we used to be together
Remember baby, so be tender baby
Remember the love we said would last forever
She's got legs
She knows how to use them
She never begs
She knows how to choose them
She's holdin' legs
Wonderin' how to feel them
Would you get behind them?
If you could only find them
She's my baby
She's my baby
Yeah, it's alright
It's alright
It's alright
Alright
She's got hair
Down to her fanny
She's kinda jet set
Try undo her panties
Every time she's dancin'
She knows what to do
Everybody wants to see
To see if she can use it
She's so fine
She's all mine
Girl, you got it right
So right
You got it right
Alright
[Incomprehensible]
She's got legs
She knows how to use them
She never begs
She knows how to choose them
She's got a dime
All of the time
Stays out at night movin'
Through time
Oh, I want her
So, I got to have her
That girl's alright
She's alright
She's alright
Right, right, right, girl
Baby, alright
Oh baby, oh baby
The sun goes down and the moon comes up
My heart is pumping for you, and the mad thing starts yeah
Ohho..yeah, never in your wildest dreams
did you ever get this feeling
never in your wildest dreams, oh no
never in your wildest dreams could it ever be this easy,
never in your wildest dreams, oh no
Oh baby, oh baby
The night is hot outside your window
I hear people walking, people talking

Ohho..yeah, never in your wildest dreams

Oh baby, oh baby
The world is slowly turning,
as it turns I see your face, touch your eyes, your lips, space space
We've arrived at the place where they open the hearts
and fill them up with love, filled with love, filled with love
This one's pumping for you, as the mad thing starts
Never in your wild, never in your wild, ...ohh
never in your wildest dreams
Never in your wild, never in your wild, ...ohh
never in your wildest dreams
never in your wildest dreams

(We've arrived at the place where they open the hearts
and fill them up with love, filled with love, filled with love
This one's pumping for you)
and the mad thing starts...ooh sacrifice
never in your wildest dreams, did you ever get this feeling
never in your wildest dreams, oh no
never in your wildest dreams can it ever feel this easy,
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
That's when my love comes tumbling down
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
When there is no one else around
I'm gonna take and I'm gonna hold
Do all the things I've told
In the midnight hour, oh yeah, in the midnight hour
I'm gonna wait till the stars come out
To see the twinkle in your eyes
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
That's when my love begins to shine
You're the only one I know
Really loves me so
In the midnight hour, oh yeah, in the midnight hour
Midnight, midnight, midnight tonight, oh
Midnight, midnight, midnight tonight, ooh, oh
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
That's when my love comes tumbling down
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
When my love begins to shine
You're the only, the only one I know
Really loves me so
In the midnight hour, oh yeah, in the midnight hour
Midnight, midnight, midnight tonight, oh
Midnight, midnight, midnight tonight, oh
Midnight, midnight, midnight tonight, oh yeah
Midnight, midnight, midnight tonight
