He's got nothing to say, he's got no excuse He's just made that way, and he's gonna stay that way Like a dog on the loose in a firework display in a world of his own No, no, no, he won't back down or go running back home
He's come a long way in life He's got a long way to go He don't even know, he don't care because He's growing up the hard way In and out of trouble every day Growing up the hard way Now no tellin' where you'll end up, boy
And he's got nothing to say, like he's lost for the worlds, his mind is in a daze That's his way, it's just a little game he plays He's got nowhere to run while the city sleeps he wanders alone Cuttin' through the steel and the hearts of stone
He's come a long way in life He's got a long way to go He don't even know, but he don't care because He's growing up the hard way In and out of trouble every day Growing up the hard way You'd better walk the straight and narrow
Growing up the hard way In and out of trouble every day Growing up the hard way Never know what you're in for, boy
He's come a long way in life He's got a long way to go He don't wanna know, and he don't care because He's growing up the hard way In and out of trouble every day He's growing up the hard way Yeah, and he's gonna stay that way You see, he's growing up the hard way Walk the straight and narrow yeah, maybe someday But still he's growing up the hard way It's just the way he's grown up Yeah, growing up the hard way There ain't no other way Growing up the hard way
It's hard getting through to me, I'm truly elusive. I got my own point of view; I am the one of a kind. And I tell you 'lil girl, I'm fascinated by you. There's something about you That makes all the difference. Like the night is to day. Well I can get along without you, But I know that within you; You've got what I'm missing, And I'll find a way.
To get reaction to action. Hey, say the word that would thrill me. Yeah, I need reaction to action; Just one look that would kill me.
You got a way of drawing attention to you. You know you stand out in a crowd. But the way that you play With any man's affections, Should never be allowed. See I consider myself The one who will show you. I'd go as far as to say: Girl, I ain't leaving here without you. But you better understand There's only one rule in this game we're gonna play:
And that's reaction to action. Maybe like a word that would thrill me. I need reaction to action. One look that would kill me. Give me reaction to action. It's getting late, I'd better make a definite move. Reaction to action, And after that baby, it's up to you.
I need reaction to action; Just a word that would thrill me. I need reaction to action; You know what I'm talking about. Give me some reaction to action. You got a look, you got a way that'll kill me. Reaction to action, reaction to action, action. Baby, don't think about it, just react. Reaction to action. Reaction to action. Reaction to action. Reaction to action. Reaction to action. Reaction to action.
(a capella: She said: Boy, your luck is running out...she make me feel like a stranger...in my own house) I come stumbling in at a quarter to three To the sound of my own dog growlin' at me I'm scared to move or turn on a light You've got me creepin' around in the dark Like a thief in the night I've got no excuse, I should have known I've got no place to live I never feel at home
I walk into the kitchen to see what's there I'm tired and I'm hungry but the cupboard's bare I've been working all day and all night too I can't believe this is all I have to come back to
I guess I'll take a look upstairs, in the danger zone I wonder what I'm doing here When I never feel at home
I'm a stranger in my own house I've got the keys to the door But I'm still locked out I'm a stranger in my own house I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow this house down Can't be a stranger in my own house
I see the do not disturb sign on my bedroom door What is this sheet and pillow laying on the floor I wore out my welcome I hear you loud and clear It's time to get a few things straight around here
I've got no excuse, I should have known I've got a place to live but I never feel at home I'm just a stranger in my own house I've got the keys to the door But I'm still locked out Stranger in my own house I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow this house down Can't be a stranger in my own house
I've got no excuse, I should have known With a woman like you I'm better off alone I'm a stranger in my own house I've got the keys to the door But I'm still locked out I'm just a stranger in my own house Oh, honey I'm home I'm just a stranger in my own house I'm just a stranger in my own house You got a lion on your hands girl, not a mouse! I'm just a stranger in my own house I'm just a stranger in my own house Well, somebody's got to go... Stranger Stranger
Long night, too long and lonely Laying there asking myself Hey, what's going on with you and me How could I be so unaware So blind I could not see Knowing you'd be there And always would be
Is anyone to blame but me I've been so concerned with myself Now I need you desperately If you've fallen for another Let's be honest with each other Is there still a chance And maybe hope to save our romance
We can't be strangers You mean too much to me I won't let this be a love in vain Don't want the loneliness Of just a memory I don't want a love in vain
Just one more night, I want to spend with you We'll let our hearts do the talking Like we used to do We'll make our first kiss last forever Put the pieces back together 'Cause there's still a chance There may be hope to save our romance
We can't be strangers You mean to much to me I won't let this be a love in vain, don't want a love in vain I don't want the loneliness Of just a memory Don't want a love in vain
Oh, woman look what you've done to me I'll show you how this love should be Don't let it be a love in vain Please don't, don't you know You got my heart on a string Don't let go Don't let this love be a love in vain
We can't be strangers It's not our destiny I won't let this be a love in vain, don't want a love in vain Don't want the loneliness Of just a memory Don't let this be a love in vain
Some people stay all alone and hide They don't even want to know the reason why They've given up on finding someone new But new love comes, it's gonna come for you When true love comes, it's gonna comfort you
Now you say you've got a broken heart You oughta know this side of love can leave you torn apart Dry your eyes 'cause your heart's gonna mend And maybe tonight you'll fall in love again Yeah, maybe tonight you'l fall in love again
But I know, I know that you're down on love But you're wrong, so wrong To be down on love
Now love seems so far away Your skies are so cloudy And the tears come like fallin' rain Face up to it and don't pretend And maybe tonight you'll fall in love again Yeah, maybe tonight you'll fall in love again Just once in a life you'll realize When love takes two, only one heart cries
But you're wrong, so wrong to be down on love You know you're not the only one See I've been down on love
In matters of the heart You better know before you start You can't get down on love
So always be prepared To be alone and a little scared But never down on love
You see you can't stay down forever, girl Down on love Come on, now Don't get down on love This ain't right baby, no Down on love Don't you go through life livin' down on love Down on love Don't you go through life livin' down on love Down on love Don't you go through life down on love Down on love Down on love
I know this girl, she's always on my mind She lives in her world and I live in mine I should forget about her and I've tried Lord knows I've tried But I want to know her, and here's the other side
I've got someone waiting for me every night She's the only one I've ever loved And it's been that way for the longest time She's the one that makes my world go right And it tears me in two because I know where I'll be tonight
I think she knows it I think she knows
Two different worlds, two different worlds One that belongs to me, one could be wrong for me Two different worlds, two different worlds Oh, two different worlds
Is she that different or is it the thrill of someone new Strung out on her, I need her love I need it bad, and I know, I know it's true I'm the one that lies awake alone I know, she's the one that makes me stray from home
And I know it Yeah, I know it
Two different worlds, two different worlds One that I may regret, one that I can't forget Two different worlds, two different worlds Oh, always two different worlds
No, I can't explain this emptiness No, I know I can't go on like this Two different worlds, two different worlds
Two different worlds I live in two different worlds One that I may regret, one that I won't forget Two different worlds But I can't live in both, I know One world I must let go
My girl, everybody says she's alright And I know that she's more than alright Well, she's a hard headed woman Got a mean attitude I may have bitten off more than I can chew I get a little light headed At her altitude But she goes one step higher
If I'm going to spend the rest of my life With a woman like that, I better think twice
She's too tough I said she's too tough From the moment she wakes up Her mind is made up She's too tough, she's too tough
My girl, she's got a way about her I know I can never live without her She's a hard headed woman So hard to please She's got her own way of dealing with me I'm out on a limb, I'm a cat up a tree But this tree's on fire
I want that woman for the rest of my life I don't know if I'm up to payin' the price
She's too tough I said that she's too tough From the moment she wakes up Her mind is made up She's too tough
You hear she's too tough Well I don't believe I'll ever leave her She's too tough, she's too tough
Well if I'm gonna spend the rest of my life With a woman like her, I'd better think twice
She's too tough I said she's too tough From the moment she wakes up Her mind is made up She's too tough, that's right
She's too tough If I do what I'm told She's gooder than gold to me She's too tough
I said she's too tough When push comes to shove This must be love She's too tough
Yeah she's too tough Well I don't believe I'd ever leave her, never leave her She's too tough, she's too tough
