Kenny Rogers - A Decade Of Hits (1997) by Kenny Rogers (보컬) on maniadb.com

Here it's seven in the am,
It's gonna take more then wakin" to rise me
I wake up with this need again
But feel the love of the woman beside me
It's just one of those days
When I wana lay here with her
And love her before I leave
And listen to the rain fall up on the roof
and the thunder sounds like horses hooves

Oh I listen to her breathe
And it makes me wana wake her up
And tell her that I'm on fire
With morning desire

It looks like I'm gonna be late again
And I need to get up and get movin'
And I'm tryin'
But the longer I keep stalling
The more I think about callin' in and lieing here
It's just one of those days
When I wana stay here with her
And watch her while she sleeps
And listen to the rain fall up on the roof
and the thunder sounds like horses hooves

Oh I listen to her breathe
And it makes me wana wake her up
And tell her that I'm on fire
With morning desire

Well I love to hear the rain fallin' on the roof
and the thunder sounds like horses hooves

Oh I listen to her breathe
And it makes me wana wake her up
And tell her that I'm on fire
With morning desire

With Morning Desire

From the moment I met you,
you made my life complete.
This wave of pure devotion,
has swept me off my feet.

And tonight when we kissed,
you still took my breath away.
It goes without saying,
but I'll say it anyway...

The vows go un-broken - and you still know I do.
Love, keep and honor - always true to you.

Though I have been tempted,
oh I have never strayed.
I'd die before I'd damage,
this union we have made.

The vows go unbroken - and you still know I do.
Love, keep and honor - always true to you.

I knew from the first - that for better or worse,
I'd stand by you all my life.

And the go vows unbroken - and you still know I do.
Love, keep and honor - always true to you.
Love, keep and honor - always true to you.

Now if the aim in your life is to settle me down
I couldn't change my point of view
I got a lady in red at the back of my head
But the woman in white is you.

Do you wanna be the only one,
Fade away in the mornin' sun
I could love you all of my life, you are my wife,
Haven't I let you know.

We don't need no buried treasure,
No buried treasure, we don't need it
We don't stand on ceremony
But life is phony in spite of it.

You can never be all you wanna be
When you're searchin' for gold
We don't need no buried treasure,
I've still got you (still got you, still got you)
I've still got you in my soul.

Well, it's a long way down and you gotta get up,
You gotta figure on a master plan
You couldn't do it, if you don't get ready,
You'll be beaten by the other man.

Do you wanna be the last one in,
Play the game that you just don't win
I can see me makin' you cry, sayin' goodbye,
But I could never let you go.

We don't need no buried treasure,
No buried treasure, we don't need it
We don't stand on ceremony
But life is phony in spite of it.

You can never be all you wanna be
When you're searchin' for gold
We don't need no buried treasure,
I've still got you (still got you, still got you)
I've still got you in my soul.

Well, you're takin' my life in the palm of your hand,
Make you mine for another day
Ain't nobody doesn't need anybody
When the good times turn away.

I don't wanna be the lonely one,
Fade away in the evenin' sun
I could love you all of my life,
You are my wife, haven't I told you so.

We don't need no buried treasure,
No buried treasure, we don't need it
(Baby we don't need it)
We don't stand on ceremony
But life is phony in spite of it. (In spite of it.)

You can never be all you wanna be
When you're searchin' for gold
We don't need no buried treasure,
I've still got you (still got you, still got you)
I've still got you in my soul.

We don't need it, we don't need it

(We don't need no buried treasure)
We don't need no buried treasure, we don't need it
(Baby we don't need it)
We don't stand on ceremony
But life is phony in spite of it.

(We don't stand on ceremony in spite of it)
You can never be all you wanna be
When you're searchin' for gold
(We don't need no buried treasure)
We don't need no buried treasure
I've still got you (still got you)
I've still got you in my soul.

We don't need it, we don't need it
(We don't need no buried treasure)
We don't need no buried treasure, we don't need it
(Baby we don't need it)
We don't stand on ceremony but life...

Baby when I met you
there was peace unknown
I set out to get you
with a fine tooth comb
I was soft inside
There was something going on
You do something to me
that I can't explain
Hold me closer and I feel no pain
Every beat of my heart
We got something going on
Tender love is blind
It requires a dedication
All this love
we feel needs no conversation
We can ride it together ah ha
Making love with each other ah ha
Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other ah ha
From one lover to another ah ha
I can't live without you
if the love was gone
Everything is nothing
if you got no one
And you did walk in the night
Slowly losing sight
of the real thing
But that won't happen to us
and we got no doubt
Too deep in love
and we got no way out
And the message is clear
This could be the year
for the real thing
No more will you cry
Baby I will hurt you never
We start and end as one
In love forever
We can ride it together ah ha
Making love with each other ah ha
Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other ah ha
From one lover to another ah ha

Sail away
Oh can't you sail away with me
Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other ah ha
From one lover to another ah ha
Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other ah ha
From one lover to another ah ha

Girl, there are no words to say
What I feel in my heart
You, you're on my mind night and day
And it hurts me when we're apart
When you're not here by my side
There is nothing in this world for me
I guess I'm crazy, crazy for you can't you see
And although you may think it's crazy
Here is where I want to be
I will always need your love
Now, I can see every dream
When I look in your eyes
And though things never are what they seem
There is one thing that I realize
That there's no doubt in my mind
We can make this love go on forever
I guess I'm crazy, crazy for you can't you see
And although you may think I'm crazy
Here is where I'll always be
And I need you with me 'cause you are the dream
That finally came true for me
And all my life there'll be no one else
If I looked all my life there could be no one else
And for the rest of my life all I need is you

I see you here with me
I've waited all my life for someone like you
Someone to give my heart and soul to

I look into your eyes
Your love for me was such a welcome surprise
I think at last I've found forever

But what about me?
(I'll always love you)
What about me?
(I'll always need you)
You were my love before
But I need so much more of you

Time after time I feel I'm losing my mind
Or maybe this is what lovers must go through
It never entered my mind
We could be wasting our time
What am I gonna do?
But what about me?

No reason to pretend
True love affairs don't have to come to an end
The moment we don't have all the answers

I nearly go insane
Each and every time I hear you whisper my name
I feel the same when I'm around you

But what about me?
(I'll always love you)
What about me?
(I'll always need you)
This is so hard for me
I wanted so much to be with you

Time after time I feel I'm losing my mind
Or maybe this is what lovers must go through
It never entered my mind
We could be wasting our time
What am I gonna do?

But what about me?

It's been a long time since I walked
Through this old town
But oh how the memories start to flow
And there's the old movie house
They finally closed it down
You could find me there every Friday night
Twenty years ago.

I worked the counter at the drugstore down the street
But nobody's left there I would know
On Saturday mornings that's where
All my friends would meet
You'd be surprised to know what a dime would buy
Twenty years ago.

All my memories from those days come gather round me
What I'd give if they could take me back in time
It almost seems like yesterday
Where do the good times go?
Life was so much easier twenty years ago.

I guess I should stop by Mr. Johnson's hardware store
His only son was my friend Joe
But he joined the army back in 1964
How could we know he would never come back
Twenty years ago...

When tempting eyes across the road
Said to me I'd love to be with you
I'm not tempted for a moment
I just think about my woman
The baby calls me on the phone
Telling me I need to hurrily home
Well the hurrying is easy
Because she's waiting up
With all the love I need

I prefer the moonlight
The one right little lady by my side
That's what I like
I prefer a late drive down the turn park
With the moonlight shining so brightly
Got her by my side
That's what I'd like
I prefer the moonlight

I prefer playing quiet song
She's a mother love her daughter
Moonlight dances on the water
The moon is full and so am I
I look at her and feel like I could cry
But my tears contain no sorrow
Because I know
She'll wake up by my side tomorrow

Morning, noon and night
When the feeling comes so right
Somewhere in some sky
Where the moon is surely shining bright
