He gave me the eye
But I just passed him by I treated him unkind But he didn't seem to mind I told him be on his way But not a word did he say He just stood there kind of bold While I acted cold But when the lovelight starts shining through his eyes Made me realize I should apologize And when he placed a kiss upon my face Then I knew, Oh then I knew That he won my heart So I quickly apologized Hoping he hadn't changed his mind But not a word did he say So I turned to walk away But when the lovelight starts shining through his eyes Made me realize how he felt inside And when he placed a kiss upon my face Then I knew, Oh then I knew That he won my heart When he asked could he walk my way I hoped sweet things he'd say Instead he smiled kind of nice As he held my hand kind of tight But when the lovelight starts shining through his eyes Made me realize how he felt inside And when he placed a kiss upon my face Then I knew, Oh then I knew That he won my heart But when the lovelight starts shining through his eyes Made me realize how he felt inside And when he placed a kiss upon my face |

Being hurt by the one you love It's a feeling that's hard to hide But you don't seem to understand why When I'm alone I sit and cry Ask any girl Who's often left alone All by herself Neglectfully pushed aside Set aside like a doll on a shelf Just ask any girl Ooh, and you'll understand why I sit and cry Ask any girl Who knows the fear of losing Someone dear And she'll say the same thing It hurts you deep Makes it hard to sleep Don't take my word Ask any girl Then you'll understand why I sit and cry Ask any girl Who receives no loving affection And she'll feel as I feel It's heartaches by the number Many nights without slumber Ask any girl Ooh, and then you'll know why I sit and cry I sit and cry |

Stop! In the name of love Before you break my heart Baby, baby I'm aware of where you go Each time you leave my door I watch you walk down the street Knowing your other love you'll meet But this time before you run to her Leaving me alone and hurt (Think it over) After I've been good to you ? (Think it over) After I've been sweet to you ? Stop! In the name of love Before you break my heart Stop! In the name of love Before you break my heart Think it over Think it over I've known of your Your secluded nights I've even seen her Maybe once or twice But is her sweet expression Worth more than my love and affection ? But this time before you leave my arms And rush of to her charms (Think it over) Haven't I been good to you ? (Think it over) Haven't I been sweet to you ? Stop! In the name of love Before you break my heart Stop! In the name of love Before you break my heart Think it over Think it over I've tried so hard, hard to be patient Hoping you'd stop this infatuation But each time you are together I'm so afraid I'll be losing you forever Stop! In the name of love Before you break my heart Stop! In the name of love Before you break my heart Stop! In the name of love Before you break my heart Baby, think it over Think it over, baby Ooh, think it over baby... |

Love is here and
Oh, my darling, now you're gone Love is here and Oh, my darling, now, now you're gone You persuaded me to love you And I did But instead of tenderness I found heartache instead Into your arms I fell So unaware of the loneliness That was waiting there You close the door to your heart And you turned the key Locked your love away from me Love is here and Oh, my darling, now you're gone You made me love you And oh, my darling, now you're gone You said loving you would make life beautiful With each passing day But as soon as love came into my heart You turned and you walked, just walked away You stripped me of my dreams You gave me faith, then took my hope Look at me now Look at me See what loving you has done to me Look at my face See how cryin' has left it's trace After you made me all your own Then you left me all alone You made your words sound so sweet Knowing that your love I couldn't keep My heart cries out for your touch But you're not there And the lonely cry fades in the air Love is here and Oh, my darling, now you're gone Love is here and Oh, my darling, now you're gone You made me love you Oh, my darling, now you're gone You made me love you Oh, my darling, now you're gone |

My World Is Empty Without You, babe.
My World Is Empty Without You, babe. And as I go my way alone, I find it hard for me to carry on. I need your strength, I need your tender touch I need the love, my dear, I miss so much. My World Is Empty Without You, babe. My World Is Empty Without You, babe. From this old world I try to hide my face, But from this loneliness there's no hiding place. Inside this cold and empty house I dwell, in darkness with memories I know so well. I need your love more than before, I can hardly carry on anymore. My World Is Empty Without You, babe, without you babe,without you babe, My mind and soul have felt like this, Since love between us no more exist. And each time that darkness falls, if finds me alone with these four walls. My World Is Empty Without You, babe. My World Is Empty Without You, babe. |

Hey, life, look at me, I can see the reality
'Cause when you shook me, took me out of my world I woke up, suddenly I just woke up to the happening When you find that you left the future behind 'Cause when you got a tender love you don't Take care of, then you better beware of the happening One day you're up, then you turn around You find your world is tumbling down It happened to me, and it can happen to you I was sure, I felt secure, until love took a detour Yeah, riding high on top of the world It happened, suddenly it just happened I saw my dreams fall apart when love walked away from my heart And when you lose that precious love you need to guide you Something happens inside you, the happening Now I see life for what it is It's not all dreams, ooh, it's not all bliss It happened to me, and it can happen to you Once Ooh, and then it happened Ooh, and then it happened Ooh, and then it happened Ooh, and then it happened Is it real, is it fake, is this game of life a mistake? 'Cause when I lost the love I thought was mine For certain, suddenly I started hurting I saw the light too late, when that fickle finger of fate Yeah, came and broke my pretty balloon I woke up, suddenly I just woke up to the happening So sure, I felt secure, until love took a detour Cause when you got a tender love you don't Take care of, then you better beware of |

I need love, love
To ease my mind I need to find, find someone to call mine But mama said You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy It's a game of give and take You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait You got to trust, give it time No matter how long it takes But how many heartaches Must I stand before I find a love To let me live again Right now the only thing That keeps me hangin on When I feel my strength, yeah It's almost gone I remember mama said You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy It's a game of give and take How long must I wait How much more can I take Before loneliness will cause my heart Heart to break? No, I can't bear to live my life alone I grow impatient for a love to call my own But when I feel that I, I can't go on These precious words keep me hangin on I remember mama said You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy It's a game of give and take You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said to trust, give it time No matter how long it takes No, love, love don't come easy But I keep on waiting Anticipating for that soft voice To talk to me at night For some tender arms To hold me tight I keep waiting I keep on waiting It aint easy But mama said You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said to trust, give it time No matter how long it takes You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy It's a game of give and take |

Time after time I see reflections of you and me Reflections of The way life used to be Reflections of The love you took from me Oh, I'm all alone now No love to shield me Trapped in a world That's a distorted reality Happiness you took from me And left me alone With only memories Through the mirror of my mind Through these tears that I'm crying Reflects a hurt I can't control 'Cause although you're gone I keep holding on To the happy times Oh, when you were mine As I peer through the window Of lost time Looking over my yesterdays And all the love I gave all in vain (All the love) All the love That I've wasted (All the tears) All the tears That I've tasted All in vain Through the hollow of my tears I see a dream that's lost From the hurt That you have caused Everywhere I turn Seems like everything I see Reflects the love that used to be In you I put All my faith and trust Right before my eyes My world has turned to dust After all the nights I sat alone and wept Just a handful of promises Are all that's left of loving you Reflections of The way life used to be Reflections of The love you took from me In you I put All my faith and trust Right before my eyes My world has turned to dust |

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah) You think that I don't feel love But what I feel for you is real love In those eyes, I see reflected A hurt, scorned, rejected Love child, never meant to be Love child, born in poverty Love child, never meant to be Love child, take a look at me Started my life in an old, cold, rundown tenement slum (Tenement slum) My father left, he never even married Mom I shared the guilt my mama knew So afraid that others knew I had no name Ah, this love we're contemplating Is worth the pain of waiting We'll only end up hating The child we may be creating Love child, never meant to be (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) Love child (Scorned by) society Love child, always second best (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) Love child, different from the rest (Hold on, hold on, just a little bit longer) Mm, baby (Hold on, hold on, just a little bit longer) Mm, baby I started school in a worn, torn dress that somebody threw out (Somebody threw out) I knew the way it felt to always live in doubt To be without the simple things So afraid my friends would see the guilt in me Ah, don't think that I don't need you Don't think I don't wanna please you But no child of mine will be bearing The name of shame I've been wearing Love child, love child, never quite as good (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) Afraid, ashamed, misunderstood (Just a little bit longer, love child) But I'll always love you (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) I'll always love you (Just a little bit longer, love child) I'll always love you (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) Always love you (Just a little bit longer, love child) I'll always love you (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) Always love you (Just a little bit longer, love child) You, you, you (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) I'll always love you (Just a little bit longer, love child) |

Some things you never get used to It's the same routine of getting up every morning And putting on a smile But underneath there's another person Who can't find a reason to make living worthwhile Ah, another day to get through Without the love that once was mine Sometimes I think my heartaches come to an end And then something brings them all back again Like wanting you and like having you I'll never get used to I've gotten used to not listing For familiar sounds you used to make Now I'm trying to get out of the habit Of calling your name first thing when I awake Look here ! It's like a child's first step I have to learn to walk all, all over again 'Cause you were always there if I should fall And now there's nobody else that I can call It's like wanting you and not having you I'll never get used to Lost in a cloud I think I caught a glimpse of you Blindly I rush to touch your hand, huh! To discover it's my mind Playing tricks on me again Tricks on me again Some things you never get used to Sometimes I think my heartaches come to an end And then something brings them all back again Like wanting you and like having you I'll never get used to It's wanting you and like having you I'll never get used to Look here ! Like wanting you and like having you I'll never get used to |

As your eyes reached out to me Something warm in your eyes Touched my heart right then and there All the love I never knew I found in you Suddenly, my world stood still My life was then fulfilled As you gently touched my hand I knew that we had laid a plan For everlasting love That I've been forever dreaming of At last, ooh, at last My forever came today (My forever came today) When you walked into my life (When you walked into my life) And made my lonely life A paradise (A paradise) It came today (Oh, it came today) Forever came today (Forever came today) As we were standin' there You didn't speak a single word But your eyes Your eyes said, you wanted me Your touch said, you needed me And my heart said tenderly "Darlin' Ooh, my darlin', make me yours Let your kiss touch my face And tell me love has led me To this place, to your warm embrace And our happiness" Thanks to you, my search has ended And I want the world to see How gently love has shined on me With everlasting love That I've been forever dreamin of At last, ooh, at last My forever came today (My forever came today) When you walked into my life (When you walked into my life) And made my lonely life A paradise (A paradise) It came today (Oh, it came today) Forever came today (Forever came today) (Forever came today) At last, ooh, at last My forever came today (My forever came today) When you walked into my life (When you walked into my life) And made my lonely life A paradise (A paradise) It came today (Oh, it came today) Forever came today (Forever came today) (Forever came today) At last, ooh, at last My forever came today |

Keep falling in and out of love In search for what I'm dreaming of I long to find a love I'm sure about That certain kind of love that moves all doubts Keep falling in and out of love Still searchin' for that special one To whom I can give my love completely And feel a lasting love so sweetly Just when I feel sure love's here to stay It seems to suddenly just fade away Can't seem to find that everlasting love That this heart of mine needs so much of Keep falling in and out of love Can't seem to find the lasting kind It seems I can't find the joy I need Love always somehow all goes wrong for me Keep falling in and out of love Keep falling in and out of love I keep reaching out for tenderness Touching a hand that holds emptiness Well,I'm looking for a love that lingers on Long after that first kiss is gone That kind of love that keeps burning bright Long after we've said goodnight Keep falling in and out of love In search for what I'm dreaming of Keep falling in and out of love... |

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Mom was cooking bread She wore a dirty, raggedy scarf around her head Always had her stockings low, rolled to her feet, she just didn't know She wore a sloppy dress Oh, no matter how she tried, she always looked a mess Out of the pot she ate, never used a fork or a dinner plate I was always so afraid for my uptown friends to see her Afraid one day when I was grown, that I would be her In a college town Away from home, a new identity I found Said I was born elite, with maids and servants at my feet I must have been insane I lied and said Mama died on a weekend trip to Spain She never got out of the house, never even boarded a train Married a guy, was living high, I didn't want him to know her She had a grandson, 2 years old, that I never even showed her I'm living in shame Mama, I miss you I know you're not to blame Mama, I miss you Came a telegram Mama passed away while making homemade jam Before she died, she cried to see me by her side She always did her best Ah, cooking, cleaning, always in the same old dress Working hard down on her knees, always trying to please Mama, mama, mama, can you hear me? Mama, mama, mama, can you hear me? I'm living in shame Mama, I miss you I know you've done your best Mama, I miss you Won't you forgive me, Mom? For all the wrong I've done I know you've done your best Ooh, I know you've done the very best you could But I never understood Working hard down on your knees |

You may not how To make words rhyme Carry a tune or a clap on time now You may have no knowledge of musical things But deep down inside of me You have created a melody You're the composer of the song That my heart sings You may not what Quarter notes are Or what I mean by Four to the Bar now Such musical terms may be Greek to your ears But deep down inside of me You have created a melody You're the composer of the song That my heart hears Now it's a tender song It's like a rhapsody, a symphony This song I find in this heart of mine And it's begging you Let nothing keep us apart Oh, my darling 'Cause you put a song in my heart Now this song that I find in my heart for you Every lyric and line I swear it's true The number one song on my personal chart Deep down inside of me You have created a melody You're the composer of the song That's in my heart Deep down inside of me You have created a symphony You're the composer You put a song in my heart You're the composer You put a song in my heart You're the composer You put a song in my heart |

You packed your bags as I recall And you walked slowly down the hall You said you had to get away to ease your mind And all you needed was a just little of time Oh winter's passed, spring and fall You never wrote me, you never called Nathan Jones you've been gone too long Gone too long... If a woman could die of tears Nathan Jones, well, I wouldn't be here The key that you're holding won't fit my door And there's no room in my heart for you no more 'Cause, winter's passed, spring and fall you never wrote me, you never called Nathan Jones you've been gone too long Gone too long Nathan Jones, Nathan Jones... Nathan Jones, ooh.. Winter's passed, spring and fall You never wrote me, you never called Nathan Jones you've been gone too long Gone too long Nathan Jones you've been gone too long ...gone too long Nathan Jones you've been gone too long ...gone too long Nathan jones you've been gonne too long ... gone too long... |

When you're alone and in a corner Your only mourner is the face that Appears in the nearest mirror You gotta get it going and somehow knowing you You're gonna have it better than you ever had it Everybody needs somebody Everybody's got the right to love If you could give in for a minute And put your soul in it We could get it on together and forever love it so what's the use of running You know there ain't no fun in running And boy you need somebody, somebody to love you Cause everybody needs somebody Everybody's got the right to love You can have all the things that you desire But without love you just can't survive You need love to warm your heart at night When you're all alone and no comfort's in sight Everybody needs somebody Everybody's got the right to love |
