Okay-a Here I Go Again? Here I Go Again!

Ah that was beautiful who said that?
Saw you there, and your laughter seemed to fill the air
Ah baby
A scent light perfume from your lovely hair
I said that I, I, I do-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo adore
Um my heart said to me
Don't walk head on into misery
Hey with your eyes wide open can't you see?
A hurts in store just like before
Ooooh-ho but here I go again walking into love
Here I go again never thinking of
Danger that might exist
Disregarding all of this just for you
Wooo I ignore the detour sign
I wont stop until you're mine
I'm past the point of no return baby
You walk by and I said to me, myself and I-yi-I
Now weve got to give it one more try-I

A hugging kissing fiend
I think it's high time you knew
Whenever I think of you
My mind blows a fuse
(Baby)
When I look in your eyes
My meter starts to rise
And I become confused
My motor cranked electric goes
When I'm sitting next to you
Electricity starts to flow
And my indicator starts to glow
(I, I)

And I won't work for nobody but you

There's no way that you can lose
Chassis fits like a glove
I've got a button for love
That you've got to use
(Push it, push it baby)
If you look into my power
I am sure you can find out how
To turn me on just set my dial
And let me love you for a little while, ooh

And I won't work for nobody but you

Just because you've become a young woman now
There's still some things that you don't understand now
Before you ask some guy for his hand now
Keep your freedom for as long as you can now
My mama told me
You better shop around
There's some things that I want you to know now
Just as sure as the wind's gonna blow now
The men'll come and the men are gonna go now
Before you tell 'em that you love 'em so now
My mama told me
You better shop around
Try to get yourself a bargain, girl
Don't be sold on the very first one
Good-looking guys come a dime a dozen
Try to find you one who's gonna give you true loving
Before you take a man and say I do now
Make sure he's in love with you now
Make sure that his love is true now
I hate to see you feeling sad and blue now
My mama told me
I will build you a castle with a tower so high
It reaches the moon
I'll gather melodies from birdies that fly
And compose you a tune
I'll give you lovin' warm as Mama's oven
And if that don't do
Then I'll try something new
I will take you away with me as far as I can
To Venus or Mars
There we will love with your hand in my hand
You'll be queen of the stars
And every day we can play on the Milky Way
And if that don't do
Then I'll try something new
I will bring you a flower from the floor of the sea
To wear in your hair
I'll do anything and everything to keep you happy
To show you that I care
I'll pretend I'm jealous of all the fellas
And if that don't do
Then I'll try something new
I'll take the stars and count 'em and move a mountain
And if that don't do I'll try something new
I'll tell the moon above it's you that I love
Goin' to a go-go
Goin' to a go-go
Na na na na, yeah
Well, there's a brand new place I've found
Where people go from miles around
They come from everywhere
And if you drop in there
You might see anyone in town
Goin' to a go-go
(Everybody's)
Goin' to a go-go
(Come on now)
Don't you want to go
(Yeah)
One more time, yeah
I'm goin' to a go-go
Ooh, ooh, whee
Goin' to a go-go
Baby, come on now
It doesn't matter where you are
A go-go can't be far
You'll see the people from your block
And don't be shocked
If you see your favorite star
Goin' to a go-go
('Cause everybody's)
Goin' to a go-go
(Oh, come on now)
Don't you want to go
(Yeah, people, come on)
Na na na na, yeah
Tell me, don't you want to go
Yeah, now, it's all right
I'm goin' to a go-go
Yes, I am
Goin' to a go-go
Oh, come on now
It doesn't matter if the people stagger
It doesn't matter if you go drag her
You're sure to have some fun
I'm telling everyone
Most every taxi that you flag is
Goin' to a go-go
(Oh, come on baby)
Goin' to a go-go
(Baby, come on now)
Don't you want to go
(Yeah)
One more time, yeah
I'm goin' to a go-go
Ooh, ooh, whee
Goin' to a go-go
(Baby, come on now)
Goin' to a go-go
(Come on, baby)
Goin' to a go-go
(Oh, come on now)
Clap your hands now everybody
we're gonna have some fun tonight
we're gonna sing, shout, knock ourselves out
everything's gonna be alright (alright)
Now let the bassman start playin',
he's gonna come in right on time
he's gonna add a beat to make you pat your feet
everything's gonna work out fine (work out fine)
And he can say I like it like that (I like it like that)
I like it like that (I like it like that)
oh, that's where it's at and I like it like that
Now after a man finds hisself a woman
she doesn't have to be a beauty queen
and then she holds you tight, she makes you feel alright
any man that I've ever seen
He's got to say, I like it like that (I like it like that)
oh, I like it like that (oh, I like it like that)
oh, that, I'm trying to tell you (oh, that's where it's at, that's where
it's at, oh, that's where it's at) and I like it like that
I like it like that (I like it like that)
I like it like that (I like it like that)
I like it like that (I like it like that)
Now I know why my mama, taught me to be true
She just a know one day that you would come my way
and I would fall in love with you
And you could say I like it like that (I like it like that)
oh, I like it like that (oh, I like it like that)
(oh, that's (I'm trying to tell you)where it's at, that's where it's at,
Now you say every time you need some affection
The one you love goes in another direction
And you just sit there in a daze reminiscing
When you know some other lips he's been kissing
Now when you need the love
He's never shown you
Come round here
And when you need some loving arms
To hold you
Come round here
Now I may not be the one you want
Oh But I know I'm the one you need
Said I may not be the one you want
But I know I'm the one you need
Your life stands still the minute he goes
You count the hours just hoping he shows
Girl can't you see while you're longing for his touch
That I'm the one who loves you so much
While you're longing for his embrace
You're all alone there with tears on your face
Now when you feel the need to cry to someone cry to me
And when you feel the need to lean on someone lean on me
Now I may not be the one you want but
I sure 'nuff the one you need
Oh baby I may not be the one you want
But I know I'm the one you need
Now the days the days you sit alone by yourself
He's out fooling round with somebody else
Leaving you alone here with nothing to do
Just waiting 'till he has time for you
Now when the loneliness
Gets hard to bear
Girl come round here
And when you need a little tender loving care
Girl come round here
Now I may not be the one you want
Everyday, I'm gonna love become what may
'cause I know that there is (nothing that means more)
to a woman than a love that she can count on
Yeah oh oh oh oh ooh
Darling dear yeah (ooh ooh ooh)
whenever when you need me I'll be here (ooh ooh ooh)
'cause I know that there is (nothing that means more to a woman) yeah than
a love that she can count on

Beware, beware, beware
Seems like love should be easier to bear
But it's such a heavy load
(A heavy load)
Worldwide traveler, you ain't been nowhere
Till you've traveled down love's road
I know I may be just a stranger
(Just a stranger)
Lover, let me warn you there's the danger
Of the fork in love's road
Beware
The danger is there
Ho, ho, ho
(Danger)
One way is for those who go along
That way tempts a girl like me
Oh, but lovers don't try to make it on your own
(Don't try it, don't try it, don't try it)
You don't want the misery
Oh, oh, why didn't I see the sign
Ooh, ooh, before I left my love behind
At the fork in love's road
Beware
The danger is there
Ho, ho, ho
If there is some thing that you don't see eye to eye
(Eye to eye)
You better think before you tell your love goodbye
(Goodbye)
'Cause your path may never cross again
You make sure you take the same bend
At the fork in love's road, baby
Beware
The danger is there
Watch the fork in the road
You better beware
(The fork in the road)
Beware
(Beware)
The danger's there
(Beware)
Woo, hoo, hoo

The fork in love's road

You better beware
Nothing so blue as a heart in pain
Nothing so sad as a tear in vain

He really doesn't deserve you
His loss is our gain so don't be blue
'cause stone blind and out of his mind
Is what he has to be yeah
So baby straighten up come on and fly right
It's no catastrophe yeah
I said now baby baby don't cry
Baby baby here's why
Love is here standin' by
Love is here standin' by
You trusted him and gave him your love
A love he proved unworthy of
Too bad it was him that you trusted
Too bad but you can't be disgusted
It's time that you got readjusted
And realized that tear filled eyes
Can never stop him now no no no
That man is on his way
I think he's gone to stay
You better drop him now yeah
Oowee now baby baby don't cry no no
Baby baby here's why
Because love is here standin' by
I say Love is here standin' by
All you've gotta do is dry your eyes long enough to see
That you have got the love you thought you had in him here in me
Love is hope girl love is strength
Here's someone standin' right beside ya
Who would go to any length to give you love true and deep
And hope you realize at last you found a love that you can keep
And only losers weep
So baby baby don't cry Oh baby don't you cry now
Baby baby don't cry Oh baby let me tell you why now
Baby baby here's why don't you know that
Love is here standin' by
I say love is here standin' by
Your tears are shed in vain I said
So baby baby don't cry c'mon dry your eyes
Baby baby don't cry don't you realize
Let it be soon, don't hesitate
Make it now, don't wait
Open your heart and let my love come in
I want the moment to start
When I can fill your heart with
More love, more joy
Than age or time could ever destroy
My love will be so sound
It would take about 100 lifetimes
To live it down, wear it down, tear it down
This is no fiction, this is no act
This is real, it's a fact
I'll always belong only to you
Each day I'll be living to
Make sure I'm giving you
More love, more joy
Than age or time could ever destroy
Oh honey, now my love will be so sound
It would take about 100 lifetimes
To live it down, wear it down, tear it down
As we grow older, no need to fear
When you need me I'll be here
I'll be beside you every step of the way
A heart that's truthful
And keeping you youthful with
More love, more joy
Than age or time could ever destroy
Oh honey, now my love will be so sound
It would take about 100 lifetimes
To live it down, wear it down, tear it down
Gonna give you more love, more joy
Than any age or time could ever destroy
Alright, is everybody ready

People say I'm the life of the party
'Cause I tell a joke or two
Although I might be laughing loud and hearty
Deep inside I'm blue
So take a good look at my face
You know my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
I need you, need you
Since you left me if you see me with another girl
Looking like I'm having fun
Although she may be cute, she's just a substitute
'Cause you're the permanent one
So take a good look at my face
You know my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
Outside I'm masquerading inside my hope is fading
I'm just a clown since you put me down
My smile is my make up
I wear since my break-up with you
Baby, take a good look at my face
You know my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it's easy to trace
I don't like you but I love you
See that I'm always thinking of you
Oh, oh, oh, you treat me badly
I love you madly
You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me, baby
I don't want you but I need you
Don't want to kiss you but I need you
Oh, oh, oh, you do me wring now
My love is strong now
You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me, baby
I love you and all I want you to do
Is just hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
I want to leave you, don't want to stay here
Don't want to spend another day here
Oh, oh, oh, I want to split now
I just can quit now
You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me, baby
I love you and all I want you to do
Is just hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
You've really got a hold on me
Maybe you want to give me kisses sweet
But only for one night with no repeat
Maybe you'd go away and never call
And a taste of honey is worse than none at all (oh little girl)
Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part
That would only break my heart
Oh, but if you feel like loving me
If you got the notion
I second that emotion
Said, if you feel like giving me
A lifetime of devotion
I second that emotion
Maybe you think that love would tie you down
You ain't got the time to hang around
Maybe you think that love was made for fools
So it makes you wise to break the rules
Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part
That would only break my heart
Oh, but if you feel like loving me
If you got the notion
I second that emotion
Said, if you feel like giving me
A lifetime of devotion
I second that emotion
Maybe you want to give me kisses sweet
But only for one night with no repeat
Maybe you'd go away and never call
And a taste of honey is worse than none at all (oh little girl)
Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part
That would only break my heart
Oh, but if you feel like loving me
If you got the notion
I second that emotion
Said, if you feel like giving me
A lifetime of devotion
I second that emotion
Maybe you think that love would tie you down
You ain't got the time to hang around
Maybe you think that love was made for fools
So it makes you wise to break the rules
Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part
That would only break my heart
Oh, but if you feel like loving me
If you got the notion
I second that emotion
Said, if you feel like giving me
A lifetime of devotion
I second that emotion
Well, if you feel like giving me
