Now the greenest green I've ever seen was the grass on which you laid
And the bluest blue was in my eyes when you said, you couldn't stay
And the biggest lost I ever took was losing what we'd begun
And the greatest song I've ever heard was the one we never sung
Now the reddest red, I've always said, is the sunset coming down?
Soon the blackest night that kills the light, is the only thing around
And the downest down I've ever been, was when I knew my race was wrong
And the greatest song I've ever heard was the one we never sung
Time will kill the pain, they say
And we'll live to love another day
If you wanna win you got to play the game
Now the greatest break came on the day we were standing in the rain
And the hardest hurt I've ever know was when you tried to ease my pain
And the longest day in history waiting till my crying's done
And the saddest song I ever heard was the one we finally sung

My baby treats me sweet and gentle
The way that he should
I got it bad and that ain't good
My poor heart it's sentimental
You know it ain't made out of wood
I got it bad and that ain't good
When the weekend is over
And Monday rolls round
I am the way that I started out
You know I'm crying, crying my heart out
He don't love me like I love him
Ah nobody could
I got it bad, bad,
I got it bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
I got it bad, ah bad
And I got it bad and it ain't good

Here it is again Monday morning
And I really got the blues
But it don't much matter
I got no need to smile
And I don't think I will for quit awhile
CHORUS:
So it might as well stay Monday from now on
Cause it seems that the only one I ever love is gone
And it just might as well stay Monday from now on
Go away mister sun I can't use you
Brighten someone else's life
Let the darkest hide me and carry off my pain
For there's nothing you can do, nothing you can do,
Nothing you can do to make things change
Chorus
Let the darkest hide me and carry off my pain
For there's nothing you can do, nothing you can do,
Nothing you can do to make things change
And it might as well stay Monday from now on
Might as well stay Monday from now on

Someday he'll come along
The man I love
And he'll be big so big and strong
The man, the man that I love
And when he comes my way
I'll do my best to make him stay
He's gonna look at me and smile
I'll understand
And in a little while
He's gonna grab, he's gonna grab my hand
And though I know it seems obscure
I know it won't say
We won't say a word
CHORUS:
Maybe I shall meet him Sunday
Maybe Monday maybe not
Still I'm gonna meet him one day
Cause maybe Tuesday will be
My good news day
He'll build a little home meant just for 2
From which I'll never, never run with you
And so all else above
I'm waiting for the man I love
He's gonna look at me and smile
I'll understand
And in a little while
He's gonna grab, he's gonna grab my hand
And though I know it seems obscure
I know it won't say
We won't say a word
Chorus

Climb upon my knee Sonny boy
You are only 3 Sonny boy
You have no way of knowing
I have no way of showing
What you mean to me Sonny boy
When they are gray skies honey
I don't mind those gray skies
I'll still have you Sonny boy
Don't you know that
My friends may forsake me
Let them go on and forsake me
You're gonna pull me straight through
Sonny boy
You're sent from heaven
And I know your worst
You've made a heaven for me
Right here on earth
I'm coming yes I'm coming
I'm sorry that I made you wait
Yes I'm coming, good God I'm coming
I hope and pray it's not too late
Can't you hear my mammy
My little mam, my little mammy
I walk a million miles for one of your smiles
My mam, my my mam my little mammy
Weep no more, weep no more my lady
Sing that song again for me
Sing a song that low just as though
You had me you had me right there on your knee
A million baby kisses I'm gonna deliver
As many that you sing that's what I deliver
Rock-a-bye your rock-a-bye baby
With a Dixie melody
Friends may forsake me
Let them forsake me
I'll still have you Sonny boy

Sunny, yesterday my life was filled with rain
Sunny, you smiled at me and then it eased my pain
Now the dark days are gone and bright days are here
My Sunny once shined so sincere, Sunny once so true
I love you I love you
Sunny thank you for the sunshine you gave to me
Sunny thank you for the love you brought my way
You gave to me your all and all
And now I feel that I'm 10 feet tall
Sunny once so true, I love you
Sunny thank you for the truth that you let me see
Sunny thank you for the facts from A to Z
Somehow I was torn like a wind blown sail
Then our love was borned when you held my hand
Sunny once so true, I love you
Sunny thank you for the sunshine you gave to me
Sunny thank you for the love you brought my way
You gave to me your all and all
And now I feel that I'm 10 feet tall
Sunny once so true, I love you

Sometimes I wonder where it is loves goes
I don't know if even Heaven knows
But I know we had dreams
That didn't quite come true
And now I'm not the one,
Little boy, who's keeping you
CHORUS:
I was either standing in your shadow
Or blocking your light
Though I kept on trying
I could not make it right
For this girl
There's not enough love in the world
I know people hurt you so bad
They don't know the damage
They can do, and it makes me so sad
How we knock each other down
Just like children on a playground
Even after that o' sun went down
Chorus
Oh darling this is still a shady little town
And sometimes it's so hard to smile
For the world, for the camera
And still you have something left
You don't have to prove nothing to nobody
Just take good care of yourself
I'm not easy to live with
I know that it's true
You're no picnic either, baby
And that's one of the things
I loved about you
But a time will come around
When we need to settle down
Got to get off this merry-go-round
Chorus

When I was up
You'd always come around
When I need a friend
You could never be found
I got a hole
Where my heart used to be
I wouldn't treat a dog, no
The way you treated me
When time was good, love
All of your lovin' was the same
Oh, when the goin' got rough
Boy, you hardly knew my name
You locked me out
And you threw away the key, baby
I wouldn't treat a dog, no no no
The way you treated me
Got me cryin for the love
That I'm needin'
Beggin' like a dog for a bone
Boy, I've spent most of my time grievin'
You turn you back
And you leave me, one of these old days
Lord knows that it's true
Just when you need me the most
I'll be walking out on you
When you say
As you're beggin' down on your knees, baby
I wouldn't treat a dog, no no no
The way you treated me
The way you treated me
I wouldn't treat a dog, no no no
The way you treated me
No, no I wouldn't do it
No, baby, I couldn't do it
I wouldn't treat a dog, no no no
The way you treated me
No baby, the way you treated me

CHORUS:
Mama when my dollies have babies
And I am a big lady
Mama will a prince come and take me away
When I said these things I believed in kings
Then I didn't know love could hurt me so
Slowly she replied, tears had filled her eyes
Baby not so fast let your young life last
Chorus
I sang to her in fun, my teens had just began
My age was not the same still we played the game
Her eyes were filled with pride and slowly she replied
Soon enough you'll be a very pretty bride
Chorus
Mama, will the hurt go away deep inside
When I sang this song
My poor world had gone along
All my early dreams has turned to crystal streams
My love it was last and more tears have past
And left me just one thing a tender voice I sing
Chorus

Tall and tan and young and lonely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes
Each one she passes goes haaa
When she walks it's like a samba
That sways so sweet and swings so gently
That when she passes
Each one she passes goes haaa
Ooh but he watches so sadly
How can he tell her he loves her
Yes he would give his hide gladly
But each day when she walks to the sea
She looks ahead not at he
Tall and tan and young and lonely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes
She smiles but she doesn't see
Ooh but he watches so sadly
How can he tell her he loves her
Yes he would give his hide gladly
But each day when she walks to the sea
She looks ahead not at he
Tall and tan and young and lonely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes
She smiles but she doesn't see

Saw him today
I saw his face, it was the face I love
And I knew I had to run away
And get down on my knees and pray
That they go away but still they begin
Needles and pins
Because of all my pride
The tears I gotta hide
Hey I thought I was smart
I'd won his heart
I didn't think I'd lose
But I see she worst to him than me
Let him go ahead take her love instead
And one day he will see
Just how to say please
Wow and get down on his knees
That's how it begins
Hurtin' him hurtin' him
Why can't I stop and tell myself
It's wrong so wrong
Why can't I stand up
Tell myself to be strong
Because I saw him today
I saw his face it was the face I love
I can't let go, although I know
He'll make me cry until the day I die
But people I got to live now
Wow Lord knows I should forgive now
That's how they begin
You'll feel those needles and pins
Somebody stop'em now
Stop those needles and pins
Somebody take'em away now
Stop those needles and pins
(Repeat and fade)

Cher and Peter Cetera
Peter Cetera:
Well here we are again
I guess it must be fate
We've tried it on our own
But deep inside we've known
We'd be back to set things straight
Cher:
I still remember when
Your kiss was so brand new
Every memory repeats
Every step I take retreats
Every journey always brings me back to you
CHORUS Cher and Peter Cetera:
After all the stops and starts
We keep coming back to these two hearts
Two angels who've been rescued from the fall
After All that we've been through
It all comes down to me and you
I guess It's meant to be
Forever you and me, after all
Cher:
When love is truly right
(This time it's truly right)
It lives from year to year
It changes as it goes
Oh and on the way it grows
But it never disappears
CHORUS Cher and Peter Cetera:
After all the stops and starts
We keep coming back to these two hearts
Two angels who've been rescued from the fall
After All that we've been through
It all comes down to me and you
I guess It's meant to be
Forever you and me, after all
BRIDGE Cher and Peter Cetera:
Always just beyond my touch
You know I need you so much
After all what else is living for
CHORUS(2x)

Better sit down kids
I'll tell you why, kids
You might not understand, kids
But give it a try, kids
Now how should I put this
I've got something to say
You mother is staying
But I'm going away
No, we're not mad, kids
It's hard to say why
Your mother and I
Don't see eye to eye
Say your prayers before you go to bed
Make sure you get yourself to school on
time
I know you'll do the things your mother
asks
She's gonna need you most to stay in
line
Keep in mind your mother's gonna need
Your help a whole lot more than she
ever did before
No more fights over little things
because
I won't be here to stop them anymore
I know you don't want this, neither do
we
But sometimes things happen
That we can't foresee
Now try to be calm, kids
And don't look so sad
Just cause I am leaving
I'll still be your dad
Just remember I love you
And though I'm not here
Just call if you need me
And I'll always be near
(Repeat Chorus)
Well, I have to go now
So kiss me goodbye
My eyes are just red, kids
I'm too big to cry

Where do you go
When it starts to rain
Where will you sleep
When the night time comes
What do you do
When your heart's in pain
Where will you run
When the right time comes
These are the things
That I want to know
Where will you hide
When the lights are low
Where do you go
When it starts to rain
Where will you sleep
When the night time comes

Love is a lonely place without you
I know I'm not alone
I should not be afraid
Cause I hear your voice
And I know you're there beside me
And so I give my heart
I live to love again
But I can't let go
Of the way I feel about you
Love is a lonely place without you
I miss you
And you're almost here
And I'm almost touching you
Love is a place I have to hide away
I'll never love this way again (again)
If love was ever true
I know it was with you
Cause you touch my soul and
You stay with me forever
No tears, no said goodbyes
There are no reasons why
But I'm holding on
I believe in love eternal
Love is a lonely place without you
I miss you
And you're almost here
And I'm almost touching you
Love is a place I have to hide away
I'll never love this way again (again)
Though I'm moving on
I'm still holding on - holding on - holding on
Love is a lonely place without you
I miss you
And you're almost here
And I'm almost touching you
Love is a place I have to hide away
I'll never love this way again (again)

You say you want to live some
Move out into the fast lane
You say you need excitement
To make you come alive
Some place a million miles from
The shadows that surround you
I look for your attention
You're lost out in the future
Where lovers ask no questions
And shadows never fall
Some pilgrim bound for paradise
No compromise
Paradise is here
CHORUS:
It's time to stop your crying
The future is this moment
And not some place out there
Tonight I need your love
Don't talk about tomorrow
Right now I need your loving
Right now give it to me
Right now I want your loving
Right now- now, now, now
You talk about your new plans
To move up on the stairway
Your dream about the high life
That's waiting for you there
A world of fame and fortune
That's just around the corner
But I don't need no high life
To make me feel a real man
And I don't need to reach for
No castles in the sky
Just put your arms around me
Devour me
'Cos paradise is here
Chorus
Tonight I need Your loving
Paradise is here

I've been romanced and I've been danced
Crazy nights and hard times
Life has lost it mystery
And love is blind, and can not find me
Cause I'm blowin' away
And shadows take my love and leave
I'm blowin' away
And shadows keep taking
My love and leaving me
I have past aside my foolish pride
Going down for the very last time
Cause I have searched this earth
And sailed the seas
But love is blind can not find me
Chorus x 2

So many people
Need to go so many miles
How do we move them
To where the answer lies
Reach out to the ocean
Beyond the stars that shine
We've got to take one small step in time
If we are the dreamers
Then the world must be the dream
Driven to question
All the things we've never seen
We search the horizon
Looking for a sign
We've got to take one small step in time
One step beyond
All our hopes and our passion
There is the light of the universe flashin'
All that it takes is one leap of faith
One small step, (one small step)
One small step in time
Deep in the darkness
(Deep in the blackness)
There's a wind that never dies
(There's a wind that never dies)
Out in the vastness
(Out in the vastness)
There's a road across the sky
(A road across the sky)
Out there is the reason
That we were meant to find
We've got to take one small step in time
We've got to take one small step in time
(One small step, one small step)
One small step in time
(One small step, one small step)
One small step in time
(One small step, one small step)

I bring a paper
To the cafe on the corner
I catch a movie in the afternoon
I spend an hour
Doing nothing that important
But nothing's what I'm in the mood to do
This peaceful image
Of a seen almost forgotten
Just touched the surface
Of my conscious mind
Of things I used to do
Before I knew you
Chorus:
So don't come around here tonite
But that doesn't mean forever
I trust you to spare us a fight
And humour my endeavour
There was something about you to me
How easier love used to be
Well I just need to know
That I'm all right
If you don't come around tonite
And so I wander
Through the workings of the city
Where every stranger has discovered me
With my desire, my isolation
Somehow I have to make the two agree
And then you vanish
All my thoughts and independance
When you put your hands on me
And I feel these things you do
That I've grown used to
(chorus)
You say I'm the one
You've been searching for
But for myself I would rather be more
Then someone who only aspires
To forfeit your every desire
And nights I've been mad, you are few
Now, all I am asking of you, is
(chorus) (repeat)

Do nothing till you hear from me
Leave a number where you're gonna be
These times are dangerous for you and me
Would I get a message through?
She'll be watching every move you make
She'll be waiting for that one mistake
Somebody's heart is gonna have to break
Before we are through
CHORUS:
Because we can't live
From kiss to kiss
Making up for all we've missed
Hiding in the daylight shadows
Until it's time to say goodbye
Wishing it would be all right
Living with a loneliness
From kiss to kiss
Don't ask me now what is right or wrong
'Cos I've been wondering since you came along
We were weak and love was strong
Now there's nothing we can do
So I'll meet you at the same ole place
I know it's worth it when I see your face
Someday we'll just disappear without a trace
Baby, that's the truth
I keep hoping we'll find a way
(Kiss to kiss)
I keep wondering who's gonna pay
(Kiss to kiss)
I keep waiting for Judgement Day
Some people's lives
Just get in the way
And that's the truth
Chorus

We use to talk
Delivered on a dime
Now we live together
Never find the time
We use to walk
As lovers on the sand
Now we're working full time
On our lifetime plan
We never stop to see
The moon at night
We're just too busy
Leading complicated lives
CHORUS:
Whoa, whoa, whoa
I remember love on a rooftop
We couldn't make our love stop
We were giving all that we got
Whoa, whoa, whoa
I remember holding you so tight
Ooh, when kissing lasted all night
Whoa, whoa, whoa,
Love on a rooftop
Whoa, whoa, whoa,
Look at us now all grown up
We got it all together
Got it all sown up
But is this all, it was leading to
Do we just run out of dreams
When all our dreams come true
What ever happened
To those endless nights
When we were happy
Living young and foolish lives
Chorus
We never stop to see
The moon at night
We're just too busy
Leading complicated lives
Chorus

Hey Joe where are you going
With that gun in your hand
I said now
Hey Joe where are you going
With that gun in your hand
Going down to shoot my old lady
Cause you know
I caught her messing a round town
I'm going down to shoot my old lady
Cause I caught her messing around
With another man
Hey Joe I heard you shot your woman down
Shot her down
Hey I said hey Joe
I heard you shot your woman down
Shot her down to the ground
Yes I did, I shot her
Cause I caught her messing around town
Hey Joe I heard you shot your woman down
Shot her down
But I said hey Joe
I heard you shot your woman down
Shot her down shot her down
Yes, yes I did, I shot her
Cause I caught her messing around town
Hey Joe where you gonna run to now
I said, I said hey Joe where you gonna run to now
Where you gonna go
Well Jig I'm going down south way down to Mexico way
I said I'm going down south way down to Mexico way

I can't figure you out
But a heart must be the one thing
You were born without
I've been wastin' my time
I don't know where I'll sleep tonight
You say that you can do without me
Go ahead now try and live without me
Baby save up all your tears
You might need them someday
When the tears start to fall
I won't wipe them away
When you cry in the night
For the love that you need
Baby save up your tears
'Cause you'll be cryin' over me
You got used to my touch
I got used to not, not feelin' much
Winter set in your eyes
Time will melt your castle of ice
You think that you won't feel the pain now
But your eyes will be cryin' like the rain now
Baby save up all your tears
You might need them someday
When the tears start to fall
I won't wipe them away
When you cry in the night
For the love that you need
Baby save up your tears
'Cause you'll be cryin' over me
You'll be cryin' over me
You don't know it now, you don't know it now
You don't know it now, you don't know it now
You don't know it now
But some wounds get deeper with time
You don't feel it now
Till the need burns, a knife turns
Your heart bleeds like mine
Baby save up all your tears
You might need them someday
When the tears start to fall
I won't wipe them away
When you cry in the night
For the love that you need
Baby save up your tears
'Cause you'll be cryin' over me
Baby save up all your tears
You might need them someday
When the tears start to fall
I won't wipe them away
When you cry in the night
For the love that you need
Baby save up your tears
'Cause you'll be cryin' over me
You'll be cryin' over me
'Cause you'll be cryin' over me
You'll be cryin' over me
(You'll be cryin' over me)
(You don't know it now)
(You don't know it now)
(You don't know it now)
You'll be cryin' over me
(You don't know it now)
(You'll be cryin' over me)
(You don't feel it now)
(You don't feel it now)
You don't feel it now
You'll be cryin' over me
(You don't know it now)
(You don't know it now)

When I said I needed you
You said you would always stay
It wasn't me who changed but you
And now you've gone away
Don't you see that now you're gone
And I'm left here on my own
That I have to follow you
And beg you to come home
CHORUS:
You don't have to say you love me
Just be close at hand
You don't have to stay forever
I will understand
Believe me believe me
I can't help but love you
But believe I will never tie you down
Left alone with your memory
Live seems dead and so do we
All that left is loneliness
There's nothing left to feel
Chorus x 2

Visions haunt my memory
They hold on, hold on desperately
You and I were over long ago
Don't know why
My heart was last to know
Each time I find somebody new
Still in love with you
I know I been lying to myself
Baby, it's you
You know I'll deny it
But know it's true
Still in love with you
Wake up, crying in the night
These feelings I'm feeling
Prove you right
You told me
No one could take your place
No matter how I try
I can't replace
One thing you said
I know it's true
CHORUS:
Still in love with you
I know I've been lying to myself
Baby, it's true
I don't want to believe it
But what can I do
Still in love with you
You and I were over long ago
Don't know why
My heart was last to know
Chorus
I know I been lying
lying all along
Baby, it's you
And I know I'll deny it
But know it's true
Still in love with you
I know I been lying to myself
Baby, it's you
Chorus

I walked down the street
People passing me by
They just look me up and down
But they don't look me in the eye
I'm just another stranger
In my own home town
Looking for an angel
But heaven can't be found
I say hey, are you lonely tonight?
Hey, hey, hey I'm gonna make it through
But that don't make it right
CHORUS:
Does anybody really fall in love anymore?
Does anybody really give their heart to somebody?
Does anybody really ever open that door?
I know, I know you've got to love somebody
I know, I know I've got to find somebody to love
There's a sad face in the mirror
And I'm sad to say it's mine
Like a ghost up in the attic
Only love can set him free
I've been running around in circles
On this roller coaster ride
There's a lonely world around me
I get sucked in by the tide
I say hey, love ain't no crime
So why is everybody so afraid to cross that line?
Chorus
Hey, hey, hey I'll be all right
'Cause I know that someone somewhere's
Gonna say these words tonight
Chorus

A world without heroes
Is like a world without sun
You can't look up to anyone
Without heroes
And a world without heroes
Is like a never ending race
It's like a time, without a place
A pontless thing
Devoid of grace
CHORUS:
Where you don't know
What you're after
Or if something's after you
And you don't know why
You don't know
In a world without heroes
In a world without dreams
Things are no more than they seem
A world without heroes
Is like a bird without wings
Or a bell that never rings
Just a sad and useless thing
Chorus x 5

When you're standin' on the edge of nowhere
There's only one way up
So your heart's gotta go there
Through the darkest night
See the light shine bright
When heroes fall in love or war
They live forever
This is a song for the lonely
Can you hear me tonight?
For the broken hearted, battle scarred
I'll be by your side
And this is a song for the lonely
When your dreams won't come true
Can you hear this prayer?
Someone's there for you
Love don't need a reason
She can pick you up
Or leave you bleedin'
I've seen a strong man cry
I know the reason why
We all forgive, we all forget
We just keep believin'
'Coz this is a song for the lonely
Can you hear me tonight?
For the broken hearted, battle scarred
I'll be by your side
And this is a song for the lonely
When your dreams won't come true
Can you hear this prayer?
'Coz someone's there for you
(Don't give up)
So let it find you
(Just for her)
Wherever you may go
(You'll be there)
I'm right beside you
You don't have to look no more
You don't have to look no more
Oh no
'Coz this is a song for the lonely
Can you hear me tonight?
(Can you hear me tonight?)
For the broken hearted, battle scarred
I'll be by your side
And this is a song for the lonely
When your dreams won't come true
(When your dreams won't come true)
Can you hear this prayer?
'Coz there's someone there for you
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
This is a song
(For the lonely)
A song for the lonely
(Can you hear me tonight?)
And that's not you only
(This is a song for the lonely)
Through the darkest night
(Can you hear me tonight?)
You're gonna see the light
('Coz this is a song for the lonely)
Love like a reason
(Dreams won't come true)
Just to leave you bleedin'
(Can you hear this prayer?)
'Coz there's someone there
Can you hear this prayer?
'Coz someone's there
'Coz this is a song for the lonely
Can you hear me tonight?
(Can you hear me tonight?)
For the broken hearted, battle scarred
I'll be by your side
And this is a song for the lonely

The road is long, with many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where, who knows where
But I'm strong, strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy - he's my brother
So on we go, his welfare is my concern
No burden is he to bare, we'll get there
For I know he would not encumber me
He ain't heavy - he's my brother
If I'm laden at all, I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart isn't filled with gladness of love for one another
It's a long long road from which there is no return
While we're on our way to there, why not share
And the load, it doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy - he's my brother

Ooh Ooh Ooh
Everywhere I look I see rain. . .
Why am I here if you're there
So far away it's not fair
To be without you - like this
I miss you more than you know
The nights are long, The days slow
Without the warmth of your kiss
Wish you were back here with me
Cause out my window, All I see is
Rain, Rain in the sky
Everywhere I look my eyes see
Rain, rain fallin' down
Crying as it hits the ground
Rain, rain in my heart
Every day that we're apart
Rain, Rain
Falling rain, rain
Only rain, rain
The sun is strong when you're near
But when you're gone it disappears
Behind an ocean of blue
The telephone's not good enough
It can't reach out, it can't touch me
The way that you do
Wish you would knock at my door
Cause only you - can stop the pouring
Maybe I'll go outside
And walk beneath the clouds
Pretend it's you that's watching over me
This isn't the only thing that come's between us now

Baby ain't been coming around, no
As much as he used to
If there's something going down then I better know
'Cause I don't wanna lose him
Must have something to tell me
I'm not sure I wanna know
Sooner or later that's one thing
I'll have to know
Say what's on your mind, tell me what you got
Baby, do you want me or not?
Don't be so unkind by putting me on the spot
Baby, do you want me or not?
Now I'm coming on over
Just to talk to you face to face
I may not be sober
But who is in this case
Don't you think that I got the right to
Know if your loving is true?
I don't mean to spook or excite you
What should I do?
Say what's on your mind, tell me what you got
Baby, do you want me or not?
Don't be so unkind by putting me on the spot
Baby, do you want me or not?
What's come over you
What in the world are you trying to do to me, baby?
Feel something, say something, baby
We're taking about
Say what's on your mind, tell me what you got
Baby, do you want me or not?
Don't be so unkind by putting me on the spot
(Do you want me?)
Baby, do you want me or not?
Say what's on your mind, tell me what you got
Baby, do you want me or not?
Don't be so unkind by putting me on the spot
(Do you want me?)
Baby, do you want me or not?

Every morning I would wake up
And I'd tie the sun around a cup
And I felt your love higher than the sky
No one in this world but you and I
Had tasted love so sweet
You held me softer than the rain
Mi amore my love never dies
Mi amore look into my eyes
We had a love so high
I could never walk away
A love so high
I could reach out and touch the sky
Tell me why
I said a little prayer for you and I
A love so high
Now I wake up in the middle of the night
Your face in front of me
Like a candle burning brighter than the flame
And I see everything inside your eyes
Your smiles your touch your alibis
And I wish that I could be with me all night
Mi amore I wish that I could fly
Mi amore look into my eyes
Tell me why
I can't see you anymore
Time's ticking away

I'll send away all my false pride
And I'll forsake all of my life
Yes I'll be as true as true can be
If you'll come and stay with me
All lovers of the past, I'll leave behind
They'll never be another on my mind
I'll do all I can so you'll feel free
If you'll come and stay with me
The promise I made most faithfully
I'll keep still if you decide to leave
I'll try and see that you have all you need
If you'll come and stay with me
Yes I'll be as true as true can be
If you'll come and stay with me
Live a life no others have ever known
But I know you think that I'm hardly grown
Oh thank God at last and finally
I can see you're gonna stay with me
I can see you're gonna stay with me

Magic, logic
The system works, but not for me
Look beyond the nearest moment
And you'll see
The shape of things to come
Somewhere deep in the city
I can feel you I know you're here
Baby, I'm just a pussy-cat
But not a one that you should fear
One, two, always love you
One, two, move up above you
Two, two, right in the face
Yes sir, no sir, three bags full so
The shape of things to come
The shape of things to come
Let me get you outta here
Tragic, logic
The system hurts, but not for me
I look beyond the fairest moment
And I say
The shape of things to come
The shape of things to come
The shape of things to come
The shape of things to come
The shape of things to come
The shape of things to come
The shape of things to come
Somewhere deep in the system
I can see you but you're not clear
A simple case of error correction
Come on baby, get your ass in gear
One, two, always love you
One, two, move up above you
Two, two, right in the face
Of sir, no sir, three bags full so
The shape of things to come
Let me get your outta here
The shape of things to come
Look into my eyes and I'll make your day
The shape of things to come
Good things, great things, all just same things
The shape of things to come
The shape of things to come

Do I ever cross your mind darling
Do you ever see
Some situation somewhere somehow
Triggers your memory
And do you ever wonder
What became of all the time
And darling, do I ever cross your mind
Do you ever want to know
If all dreams go on endlessly
Or do they just run down somehow
Gradually become the custody
Or that melancholy jaded by the time
And darling, do I ever, ever cross your mind
CHORUS:
Do I ever cross your mind
When you're lonely
Or does that only happen to me
Darling don'tcha ever wonder
What became of all the time
And darling, do I ever, ever cross your mind
Chorus

I found the boy for me
He's my dream baby
He doesn't know that I
That I almost die when
When he walks by says hello
He's unlike the guys in books, he's
Not really great on looks, but
But I don't care, I love him so
CHORUS:
And I feel so good whenever he's around
Feel so good when he's around
Wo oh oh oh, I dream of him each night, I
Dream that he holds me tight
Somehow make that dream come true
I'm gonna pray for the
Pray for the day he says
Hey, pretty baby, I love you
(1st 2 lines of chorus)
(instrumental)
(repeat chorus minus the starting And I )
I'm gonna pray for the
Pray for the day he says
Baby, I love you
(repeat fade):
Wo oh oh, wo oh oh, I love you

I know we can make it baby
If only we try
Let's hang on to love
And don't let it die
Even though
CHORUS:
It's been touch and go
Off and on
Weak and strong
But then we didn't know
That with hope, we could cope
With all the ups and downs
So please stay around
I need you so
I'd give you a bed of roses
Right here in my arms
But you got to take
The sweet with the thorns
And I know
Chorus x 3 fade

I can't wait 'till I see you baby
I can't wait 'till the night comes falling down
I gotta see you again
And even if it couldn't be forever
I'd trade a lifetime for this night together
Hold on hold on
CHORUS:
My heart is burning with the heat of this
Emotional fire
Every time I see you
I'm on fire, every time we touch
Can't you feel me burning with desire
Baby feel the warm, give me some
Emotional fire
Emotional fire¡­
There's a feeling when I'm here beside you
Couldn't leave you and I wouldn't try to
Baby, I only need you again
There ain't nothing that can break this fever
The love gets stronger, and the passion deeper
Hold on hold on
I can't let go, 'cause there's no stopping this
Emotional fire
Every time I see you
I'm on fire, every time we touch
Can't you feel me burning with desire
Baby feel the warm, give me some
Emotional fire
Emotional fire¡­
I can't wait until I see you baby
I can't wait 'till the night comes falling
Hold on hold on
Chorus

I remember every word you said
We can't go on this way
Should I go or stay
But I've given you everything
That one woman could give a man
So when you gonna recognize and realize
What we had
(Now tell me)
Who you gonna believe, her or me?
What's it gonna be, Who you gonna believe?
Before your heart shatters, love is all that matters
You put me through that lover's game over and over
Someday someone's gonna put you through the same
Lover to lover, I hope you don't find out too late
I hope you never have to feel the pain
'Cause if you lose the love you took for granted
That you could never appreciate
Who you gonna believe, her or me?
Who's it gonna be, who you gonna believe?
Before you make up your mind
You better take some time
What about me, don't you think I need a man here
Standing by my side
And what about you, you need a woman to hold you
Through those cold and lonely nights
Oh, what about us, we belong together for ever and ever.
Oh, I'll be there if you should ever need me
Oh, I know everything will work out fine, just believe
Oh, I know cause we've been through this a million times
Keep on believing well I hope you don't find out too late
Hope you never have to feel the pain
Cause if you lose the love you took for granted
That you could never appreciate, after all this time
Who you gonna believe, her or me?
Who's it gonna be, who you gonna believe?
Who are you fooling
Well you're not fooling me no
Who you gonna believe, you can risk it all
With someone else's world
Wondering if it's love
Baby oh baby, you should know by now
You can believe in me

It's not unusual to be love by anyone
It's not unusual to have fun with anyone
When I see you hanging about with anyone
It's not unusual to see me cry
I wanna die
It's not unusual to go out at anytime
When I see you out and about it's such a crime
If you should ever want to be love by anyone
It's not unusual it happens every day
No matter what you say
You'll find it's happens all the time
Love will never do whatcha you want it to
Why can't this crazy love be mine
It's not unusual to be mad at anyone
It's not unusual to be sad with anyone
But if I ever find that you have changed at anytime
It's not unusual to find out I'm in love with you

Won'tcha let me rock and roll you baby
I haven't seen you in a long, long time
I haven't fooled around with any candles lately
Just thought you might have some music in mind
CHORUS:
Ah I just want to serenade you
Maybe we could even live a verse or two
And I could finish this ole love song
So I could start singing it to you
I could start singing it to you
If I could finish this ole love song
And I could start singing it to you
Won't you come and boogie-woogie with me baby
It's been a while since I held you close to me
I haven't met many boys like you baby
Knew I would find you eventually
Chorus

What'll I do, when you are far away
And I'm so blue what'll I do
What'll I do when I am wondering
Who is kissing you
What'll I do
What'll I do with just a photograph
To tell my troubles to
When I am alone
With all the dreams of you
That won't come true
What will I do
What'll I do when you are far away
And I am blue what'll I do

Rudy toot, it's been a long time
Since we said goodbye
Last night Tina made me think of you
Don't you ask me why
When I heard that you were coming
My head was spinning
My heart was pumping
You're not mine
No you're not mine
CHORUS:
Rudy toot, do you remember
All the nights we shared together
Rudy you're still always on my mind
Rudy if you find you're lonely
I will be your one and only
Rudy you're still always on my mind
Rudy you know you heard me crying
But you paid me no attention
All alone I was calling your name
But you left me in suspension
You know the love that you had taken
My world was shakin'
My heart was breaking
You're not mine
No you're not mine
Chorus x 3 (fade)

The road is long, with many a winding turns
That leads us to who knows where,
Who know where
But I'm strong, strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
So on we go, his welfare is my concern
No burden is he to bare, we'll get there
For I know he would not encumber me
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
If I'm laden at all, I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart isn't filled with gladness
Of love for one another
It's a long, long road from which there is no return
While we're on our way to there, why not share
And the load, it doesn't weigh me down at all
He's my brother, he's my brother

When the love is gone
There is nothing you can do
But feel the pain
If only I could only feel
The freedom that I gain
I could be happy then
And start again
When the love is gone
Instead of feeling sorry, feeling strong
If I could put it all behind were it belongs
And find that long lost friend and myself again
CHORUS:
When the love is gone
And the memories tag along
When you know that you gotta go on
Yes you gotta be strong
When the love is gone
There's no shoulder to cry upon
You gotta hold your head on high
When it says goodbye
When the love is gone
There's no one in the wings
To take you home
But there's a strength one gets
When going it alone
To make you wiser when it comes again
Chorus
And the moon remains me of your love
And the rain remains me of you love
Sit and watch the sun go down
It's you I'm thinking of
But I won't run back for all the stars above
No
Chorus

I won't waste your time
By pretending I am something else
You got eyes to see
I live a modesty of someone else
I'm reading your mind
I know what you like
I peeped into your fanstasies
CHORUS:
It works every time
I'm confident
I can take you
I can take you anytime
I paralyze
Body and soul are immobilize
Honey if it's green
Like a dollar bill
Don't get caught up
In a power of a win
Earth is gonna shake
Watch me elevate your expectations
Oh why is this happening
You'll be furthering your education
I think it all out
I know what to say
To get you on my side
Chorus
Got a way of
Got a way of
Getting what I want
Got a way of
Got a way of
Getting what I want
Got a way of
Got a way of
Getting what I want
Got a way of
Got a way of
Getting what I want
Chorus
Better watch your step
I paralyze
Body and soul are immobilize
I can see you are a man
Who'll never quit
I'm so glad
Cause I think
I'm gonna like it

One day I'll stop breathing
My heart will stop beating
I won't see your face again
This flesh and blood is weak
And life isn't ours to keep
Sometime it has to end
In time even memories fade away
With time you might live
To forgive and forget
The mistakes that I made
CHORUS:
I broke some promises
Sometimes I lied to you
But one thing will always be true
I'll never stop loving you
Fall from your grace
You'll never be replaced
God knows how hard I've tried
But it just ain't no use
I thought I could shake you loose
I'm still torn up inside
In time even memories fade away
With time you might live
To forgive and forget
The mistakes that I made
Chorus x 2

You can cover your eyes
And hide behind walls
You've built around you
You can run for your life
Anytime there's a chance of
Someone breaking through
But sooner or later it comes to us all
And even the strongest must fall
CHORUS:
When love calls your name
There's no saying no
You follow your heart wherever it goes
To the ends of the earth
For the rest of your days
Whatever it takes yeah you'll find a way
Through fire and rain
When love calls your name
Now I see a light
And it keeps getting brighter
And shows me the way
And it's there in your eyes
Pulling me closer everyday
After all of this time
The tables have turned
Yes, I'm finally ready to learn
Chorus
You do what you must
You take it on faith
You take it on trust
You're out of control
And all that you know
Your world's not the same
When love calls your name
Chorus
When love calls your name

They go off and leave me behind
They have so many words to find
I run to catch a glimpse of them
Just walking in the sun
Knowing they'll be mine again
When the evening has begun
And when I see them hand in hand
The boy who walks beside the man
I pray that I will always have the world
That I have found
The husband and the son
That I built my life around
CHORUS:
He'll never know of that night long ago
He'll never know it's locked in my mind
No he'll never know
From the feelings I show
He'll never know
His son is only mine
Sometimes I lie awake at night
Watching darkest turn to light
Thinking back on all the things
I said to him today
Wondering if I might had a careless word to say
When the morning's almost here
He reaches out to draw me near
Silently I search his face for the love
I hope to see and once again
I'm sure that all his love belongs to me
Chorus

I could cry some chin-chin tears
Where have I been all these years
A little while come on tell me now
How long has this been going on
What a kick and how I buzz
My son you click like nobody does
Listen sweet I repeat
How long has this been going on
CHORUS:
I feel like I could melt right into heaven
I've heard
And now I know how Columbus felt
Finding another world
Kiss me once and then again once more
God what a dunce I was before
What a break for heaven sake
How long has this been going on
Chorus
