Back when I was a child Before life removed all the innocence My father would lift me high And dance with my mother and me And then Spin me around til' I fell asleep Then up the stairs he would carry me And I knew for sure I was loved If I could get another chance Another one another dance with him I'd play a song that would never never end How I'd love love love To dance with my father again Ooooh When I and my mother would disagreed To get my way I would run from her to him He'd make me laugh just to comfort me Yeah yeah Then finally make me do just what my momma said Later that night when I was asleep He left a dollar under my sheet Never dreamed that he would be gone from me If I could steal one final glance One final step One final dance with him I'd play a song that'd never never end Cos I'd love love love to dance with my father again Sometimes I'd listen outside the door And I'd hear how my momma of cried for him I pray for her even more than me I pray for her even more than me
I know I'm praying for much too much But could you send back The only man she loved I know you don't do it usually But dear Lord she's dying To dance with my father again Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream
A chair is still a chair, even when there's no one sittin' there But a chair is not a house and a house is not a home When there's no one there to hold you tight And no one there you can kiss goodnight
Whoa...oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...Girl
A room is a still a room, even when there's nothin' there but gloom But a room is not a house and a house is not a home When the two of us are far apart And one of us has a broken heart
Now and then I call your name And suddenly your face appears But it's just a crazy game When it ends, it ends in tears
Pretty little darling, have a heart, don't let one mistake keep us apart I'm not meant to live alone, turn this house into a home When I climb the stairs and turn the key Oh, please be there, sayin' that you're still in love with me yeah...
I'm not meant to live alone, turn this house into a home When I climb the stairs and turn the key Oh, please be there, still in love I said still in love Still in love with you, yeah...
Are you gonna be in love with me I want you and need to be, yeah Still in love with me Say you're gonna be in love with me It's drivin' me crazy to think that my baby Couldn't be still in love with me
Are you gonna be, say you're gonna be Are you gonna be, say you're gonna be Are you gonna be, say you're gonna be Well, well, well, well Still in love, so in love, still in love with me Are you gonna be Say that you're gonna be
Still in love with me, yeah... With me, oh Still in love with me, yeah...
What's there to say, there's not much to talk about And whatever happened to all of the love that we vowed Yes, it's true And there's nothing new You can say
Give me the reason to want you back Why should I love you again Do you know, tell me how How to forgive and forget Give me the reason to love you now It's been a mighty long time And the love that used to be Ended the day you walked out Never knew I'd ever be Standing alone and outside With no one to love
Yeah...Ooh........Yeah... I was secure and so glad there was you to love What in the world would I ever do without us But it's getting clear That I have to get over you
Give me the reason to want you back Why should I love you again Do you know, tell me how How to forgive and forget Give me the reason to love you now It's been a mighty long time And the love that used to be Ended the day you walked out Never knew I'd ever be Standing alone and outside With no one to love
No one, no one to love No one, no one to love No one, no one to love No one, no one to love
Give me the reason to want you back Why should I love you again Do you know, tell me how How to forgive and forget Give me the reason to love you now It's been a mighty long time And the love that used to be Ended the day you walked out Give me the reason To love you, girl To love you, girl To love you, girl To love you, girl To love you, girl Give me the reason To love you, girl To love you To love you, girl Ooh To love you, girl To love you, girl To love you, girl To love you, girl
I thought sometime alone was what we really needed you said this time would hurt more than it helps but I couldn't see that I thought it was the end of a beautiful story and so I left the one I loved at home to be alone alone and I tried to find out if this one thing is true that I'm nothing without you I know better now and I've had a change of heart I'd rather have bad times with you than good times with someone else I'd rather be beside you in a storm than safe and warm by myself I'd rather have hard times together than to have it easy apart I'd rather have the one who holds my heart whoo whoo whoo yeah And then I met someone and thought she could replace you we got along just fine but wasted time because she was not you we had a lot of fun though we knew we were faking love was not impressed with our connection built on lies all lies so I'm here cause I found this one thing is true that I'm nothing without you I know better now and I've had a change of heart I'd rather have bad times with you than good times with someone else I'd rather be beside you in a storm than safe and warm by myself I'd rather have hard times together than to have it easy apart I'd rather have the one who holds my heart Who holds my heart I can't blame you if you turn away from me Like I've done you I can only prove the things I say with time Please be mine I'd rather have bad times with you than good times with someone else I'd rather be beside you in a storm than safe and warm by myself I'd rather have hard times together than to have it easy apart I'd rather have the one who holds my heart I'd rather have bad times with you than good times with someone else I'd rather be beside you in a storm than safe and warm by myself I'd rather have hard times together than to have it easy apart I'd rather have the one who holds my heart I'd rather have the one who holds my heart I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
I speak to myself sometimes and I say Oh my In a lot of ways you're a lucky guy Now all you need is a chance to try Any love
In my heart there's a need to shout Dying screaming crying let me out Are all those feelings that want to touch Any love
What a world for the lonely guy Sometimes I feel I'm gonna lose my mind my mind Can anybody tell me just where to find Any love any love Everyone needs a love no doubt Any love Any love Everybody feels alone without Any love any love I know there's a love waiting To enter my life enter my life Every day as I live I try to think positive I pray for someone good to come Any love
Love is sweet and so divine And I can't wait for my love life to shine to shine Can anybody tell me where I can find Any love any love Everyone needs a love no doubt Any love Any love Everybody feels alone without Any love any love I know there's someone waiting for me To enter my life Come into my life Suddenly I'm up in clear blue skies Lonely tears start to fill my eyes I can weep but I refuse to cry I've got to keep holding on I've got to think love is strong To keep holding on Everyone needs a love no doubt Any love Any love Everybody feels alone without Any love any love And I know I know I know I know she'll come into my life
Everyone needs a love no doubt Any love Any love Everybody feels alone without Any love any love
she'll come into my life into my life into my life Everyone needs a love no doubt Any love Any love Everybody feels alone without Any love any love
So close to paradise, but closer than I should be It's like I'm along for the ride, it happened unexpectedly Promised myself that I wouldn't ever love again But you make me feel something, my mind's always on you I was standing in the rain (I thought about you) I was riding on the train (I thought about you) Feeling high like I seem to do Every time I think about you Saw two lovers start to kiss (I thought about you) Had to hold back the tears (I thought about you) Other girls no more exist
All because I think about you Nothing seems to help, I don't even know myself I'm trying not to think of you, but a heart does what it wants to do Pass you by, see you smile and I must admit I get So emotional, I think I'm falling for you Bought a pillow for my room (I thought about you) Heard Alicia sing a tune (I thought about you) It sends my rocket to the moon Every time I think about you Right from this heart of mine (I thought about you) I wanted you every time (I thought about you) What I feel is so divine
And it's all because I think about you But I'm constantly reminded Reminded that you're only someone who I'd like to know You don't know me, you're my private fantasy You're with me, constantly in my mind Had a lovely day today (I thought about you) Wasn't hard to get through (I thought about you) Seems to happen easily
Every time I think about you Took a walk with myself (I thought about you) Wish it could've been with you (I thought about you) But every star in the sky came out for me And it's all because I think about you
Knowing Love the way that I do I can say for certain that it's true there's a chance for me and you I surely feel that the time is near the picture in my mind is very clear I think love has brought us here
I remember not so long ago I was just a lonely person with a lonely heart and I was hoping there could one day be be a chance for me to get the love that I'd been missing sometimes love takes a long time but wait for love and your gonna get the chance to love wait for love wait for love oh my
When you take the chance on love you'll feel it's not a waste of time if you truly believe the impossible can be so hold on tight if you think your right nothing hurts as bad as when you see you gave up too easily now I remember spending all my time that a dream that kept me wishing that you could be mine and I was hoping there could one day be be a chance for me to get the love that I've been wishing sometimes love takes a long time but wait for love and your gonna get the chance to love wait for love wait for love oh my
I never stop believing there could one day be a chance for me to get the love that I'd been missing sometimes love takes a long time but wait for love and your gonna get the chance to love wait for love wait for love oh my

He works hard to give her all he thinks she wants But it tears her apart 'cause nothing's for her heart He pulls in late to wake her up with a kiss goodnight If he could only read her mind she'd say Buy me a rose call me from work Open a door for me what would it hurt Show me you love me by the look in your eyes These are the little things I need the most in my life
Now the days have grown to years of feelin' all alone As she sits and wonders if all she's doin' is wrong 'Cause lately she'd try anything just to turn his head Would it make a difference if she said if she said Buy me a rose call me from work Open a door for me what would it hurt Show me you love me by the look in your eyes These are the little things I need the most in my life And the more that he lives the less that he tries To show her the love that he holds inside And the more that she gives the more that he sees This is the story of you and me So I bought you a rose on the way home from work To open the door to a heart that I hurt And I hope you notice this look in my eyes 'Cause I'm gonna make things right for the rest of your life Rest of your life And I'm gonna hold you tonight tonight Do all those little things for the rest of your life of your life
My love there's only you in my life The only thing that's bright My first love You're every breath that I take You're every step I make And I I want to share all my love with you No one else will do And your eyes your eyes your eyes They tell me how much you care Oh yes you will always be my endless love
Two hearts two hearts that beat as one Our lives have just begun Forever I'll hold you close in my arms I can't resist your charms And love and love I'll be a fool for you I'm sure You know I don't mind Oh you know I don't mind Cause baby you you mean the world to me Oh I know I've found in you my endless love
Oh and love I'll be that fool for you I'm sure that You know I don't mind you know I don't mind

Excuse me miss But what's your name? Where are you from and can I come? And possibly can I take you out tonight? To a movie, to the park I'll have you home before it's dark So let me know, can I take you out tonight?
Huh, that's why I had to come over And introduce myself to you Cause you never know where you're gonna find love And hopefully I found it in you, yeah
Excuse me miss But what's your name? Where are you from and can I come? And possibly can I take you out tonight? To a movie, to the park I'll have you home before it's dark So let me know, can I take you out tonight?
I thought sometime alone was what we really needed you said this time would hurt more than it helps but I couldn't see that I thought it was the end of a beautiful story and so I left the one I loved at home to be alone alone and I tried to find out if this one thing is true that I'm nothing without you I know better now and I've had a change of heart I'd rather have bad times with you than good times with someone else I'd rather be beside you in a storm than safe and warm by myself I'd rather have hard times together than to have it easy apart I'd rather have the one who holds my heart whoo whoo whoo yeah And then I met someone and thought she could replace you we got along just fine but wasted time because she was not you we had a lot of fun though we knew we were faking love was not impressed with our connection built on lies all lies so I'm here cause I found this one thing is true that I'm nothing without you I know better now and I've had a change of heart I'd rather have bad times with you than good times with someone else I'd rather be beside you in a storm than safe and warm by myself I'd rather have hard times together than to have it easy apart I'd rather have the one who holds my heart Who holds my heart I can't blame you if you turn away from me Like I've done you I can only prove the things I say with time Please be mine I'd rather have bad times with you than good times with someone else I'd rather be beside you in a storm than safe and warm by myself I'd rather have hard times together than to have it easy apart I'd rather have the one who holds my heart I'd rather have bad times with you than good times with someone else I'd rather be beside you in a storm than safe and warm by myself I'd rather have hard times together than to have it easy apart I'd rather have the one who holds my heart I'd rather have the one who holds my heart I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
There's a whole lot of girls messin' around trying to get me
They do things cause they know my girl is away they try to upset me
They cant believe I resist how can I hold out, where is that girl now but the truth really is I don't worry cause I love you baby so, That...
No matter where my baby is she never leaves me without love She gives it up till I get enough then I'm alright 'Til my baby comes home if she stays away for long she calls me on the phone I jump up when I hear her voice then I'm alright 'Til my baby comes home
I get weak in the knees my hands start to shakin' head gets to achin' is she thinkin' of me or feelin' the fire with some other guy, yeah I cant believe I can be worried about her I shouldn't doubt her cause our thing is for real and I don't worry cause I know, I know, I know...
No matter where my baby is she never leaves me without love She gives it up till I get enough then I'm alright 'Til my baby comes home if she stays away for long she calls me on the phone I jump up when I hear her voice then I'm alright 'Til my baby comes home
Bring it on Home to me She makes everything alright, she's good to me She's the best part of my life cant you tell That I'm just like a new guy, I'm doing very well cause I know she's coming back tonight
Every night when I sleep I dream of my baby she's such a lady then I wake up and see that she's laying by me right there beside me I cant explain how I fell I really love her, keep dreaming of her cause our love is for real and I don't worry cause I know, I know, I know
No matter where my baby is she never leaves me without love She gives it up till I get enough then I'm alright 'Til my baby comes home if she stays away for long she calls me on the phone I jump up when I hear her voice then I'm alright 'Til my baby comes home
Lately love keeps keeping up at night Tossing and turning, my love Wanna kiss you, wanna hold you real tight Ooo but I wonder love whether you know or not You just hurry away, leaving me laying there in shock
I just wanna be the one that you wanna see I just wanna have you near me But you fly away almost everyday You work a lot but you never stop to love
CHORUS: Stop, I love you so stop Come home from the road Gotta stop to love And let's celebrate, celebrate the love we got, stop Say you're coming home
You say my love has always been on your mind But how can I ever love you, when you keep working overtime? Too many empty nights, can make almost any guy roam to look for the love he don't get whenever he's at home alone.
Awaiting the day that you're coming to stay I hate to see you go away, but you couldn't rest Had to do your best to reach the top But you did not stop to love
(REPEAT CHORUS)
And one day you'll discover I'm the one who love ya Gotta stop to love No one loves you better Can't you stay forever? Stop to love I can hardly stand the loneliness Come on home, that's what it's all about You really turn me out
