REO Speedwagon - The Hits [compilation] (1988) by REO Speedwagon (보컬) on maniadb.com

You left this morning on an early plane
You left your picture behind to haunt me
You left in a steady rain
You say you'll miss me, say you want me

I'm left this mornin with a world of doubt
I'm left this mornin indecently exposed
So much we never did talk about
And your kiss goodbye, said the case is closed

(chorus)
I don't want to lose you
I don't want to lose the best love that I've ever found
Don't want to lose you
Why didn't I cry when you said goodbye
Why didn't I break down, break down and say
I don't want to lose you

We met last night in a public place
And your new lover was just across the street
But tears washed across your face
Girl I wanted to, hold you close to me

I don't want to lose you
I don't want to lose the best love that I've ever found
Don't want to lose you
Why didn't I cry when you said goodbye
Why didn't I break down, break down

I remember all the things that we did
The warmth of your smile
And your tender touch
I always knew I cared about you girl
I just didn't know how much

(solo)

(chorus)

Maybe it's too late, but this feelin' is runnin' through my soul
I think I learned what love is, but I'm afraid I let it go.
Maybe it's too late, maybe you've already changed your mind,
Turned lovin' into leavin', and I'm on the outside.

You can take these words to bed with you, and hold on to them at night,
they can erase the emptiness, and make everything alright.
But your laughter and your tenderness, will never disappear,
No matter where you are tonight, a part of you is Here with me.

Here with me.
I don't know where you are
All I know is I need you to be
Here with me
I know it's not too late
to turn around and get it straight,
It's my fate to have you here with me

I can hear your voice, promising your love will never die
I can feel your golden skin on mine, beneath the desert sky
So how can it be true, how can you just turn and let me go?
Let the story of your life with mine, forever go untold

I can take these words to bed with me, and hold on to them at night,
they can erase the emptiness, and make everything alright.
Cause your laughter and your tenderness, will never disappear
No matter where you are tonight, a part of you is here with me.

(chorus)

(repeat chorus)

Here with me (are you here with me?)
I don't know where you are (don't know where)
All I know is, I need you to be, ohohwhoa,
Here with me
I know it's not too late (know it's not too late)
to turn around and get it straight
Here with me...

As soon as you are able, woman I am willing
To make the break that we are on the brink of
My cup is on the table, my love is spilling
Waiting here for you to take and drink of

So if you're tired of the same old story,
Oh, turn some pages
I will be here when you are ready
To roll with the changes, yeah, yeah

I knew it had to happen, felt the tables turnin'
Got me through my darkest hour
I heard the thunder clappin', felt the desert burnin'
Until you poured on me like a sweet sunshower

So if you're tired of the same old story
Oh, turn some pages
I will be here when you are ready
To roll with the changes, ooooh

So if you're tired of the same old story
Oh baby, turn some pages
I will be here when you are ready
To roll with the changes, baby,
Roll with the changes,
Ah you know you know you know you got to

(Keep on rollin') Oh yeah
(Keep on rollin'), oooh roll with the changes
Keep on rollin' (keep on rollin' keep on rollin')
Oh now roll with the changes oh baby
(Keep on rollin') oh babe (keep on rollin')
Oh you got to learn to roll with the changes
Got to, got to, got to, got to keep on rollin'
Keep on rollin', got to learn to, got to learn to,
Got to learn to roll

Keep on rollin', keep on rollin', oooh
Keep on rollin', keep on rollin', oooh
Keep on rollin', keep on rollin', oooh
Keep on rollin', keep on rollin', oooh, aah

You should've seen by the
look in my eyes baby
There was somethin missin
You should've known
by the tone of my voice maybe
But you didn't listen
You played dead
But you never bled
Instead you lay still in the grass
All coiled up and hissin
And though I know
all about those men
Still I don't remember
Cause it was us baby
way before then
And we're still together
And I meant every word I said
When I said that I love you I meant
That I love you forever
And I'm gonna keep on lovin you
Cause it's the only thing I wanna do
I don't wanna sleep
I just wanna keep on lovin you

And I meant every word I said
When I said that I love you I meant
That I love you forever
And I'm gonna keep on lovin you
Cause it's the only thing I wanna do
I don't wanna sleep
I just wanna keep on lovin you
And I'm gonna keep on lovin you
Cause it's the only thing I wanna do
I don't wanna sleep
I just wanna keep on lovin you

You tell me what you think I'm feelin'
You know why I do what I do
Why should you listen to a word I'm sayin'
When it's already so clear to you
You tell me 'bout my bad intentions
You doubt the very things I hold true
I can no longer live with your misconceptions
Baby all I can say to you, is

That ain't love, I believe you've got the wrong emotion
That ain't love, at least it doesn't feel like love to me
As long as I say what you wanna hear
Do what you wanna do, be who you want me to be
You think that's love, well baby that ain't love to me

We've got to talk it over sometime
These feelings won't just disappear
I'm just gonna keep telling you what's on my mind
Even if it's not what you wanna hear
Ooooh right now your world and mine are such different places
Through yours I wander lost and confused
And I feel like I'm speaking in a different language
And the only words I haven't used

Are that ain't love, I believe you've got the wrong emotion
That ain't love, at least it doesn't feel like love to me
As long as I say what you wanna hear
Do what you wanna do, be who you want me to be
You think that's love, well baby that ain't love to me

You keep tellin' me
You know a place where your life would be better
You're makin' plans long-range
But I don't know how you expect to get there
When you refuse to change - yeah

Oooh baby - that ain't love, I believe you've got the wrong emotion
No baby, that ain't love, at least it doesn't feel like love to me
As long as I say what you wanna hear
Do what you wanna do, be who you want me to be
You think that's love, well baby that ain't love to me

Oooh baby that ain't love
Love love love love love love love
That ain't love, ooh no
Baby that ain't love,
That ain't love
That ain't love
That ain't love

Take It On The Run
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you been messin' around
They say you got a boy friend
You're out late every weekend
They're talkin' about you and it's bringin' me down
But I know the neighborhood
And talk is cheap when the story is good
And the tales grow taller on down the line
But I'm telling you, babe
That I don't think it's true, babe
And even if it is keep this in mind

{Refrain}

You take it on the run baby
If that's the way you want it baby
Then I don't want you around
I don't believe it
Not for a minute
You're under the gun so you take it on the run

You're thinking up your white lies
You're putting on your bedroom eyes
You say you're coming home but you won't say when
But I can feel it coming
If you leave tonight keep running
And you need never look back again

{Refrain x 3}

Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you been messin' around

There was a time some time ago
When every sunrise meant a sunny day, oh a sunny day
But now when the morning light shines in
It only disturbs the dreamland where I lay, oh where I lay
I used to thank the lord when I'd wake
For life and love and the golden sky above me
But now I pray the stars will go on shinin', you see in my dreams you love me

Daybreak is a joyful time
Just listen to the songbird harmonies, oh the harmonies
But I wish the dawn would never come
I wish there was silence in the trees, oh the trees
If only I could stay asleep, at least I could pretend you're thinkin' of me
'Cause nighttime is the one time I am happy, you see in my dreams

We climb and climb and at the top we fly
Let the world go on below us, we are lost in time
And I don't know really what it means
All I know is that you love me, in my dreams

I keep hopin' one day I'll awaken, and somehow she'll be lying by my side
And as I wonder if the dawn is really breakin'
She touches me and suddenly I'm alive

Oho, in my dreams

So you figure that you've
Got him all figured out,
He's a sweet talking stud
Who can melt a girl's heart with his pout.
He's the kind of lover that the ladies dream about.
Oh, yes he is.

He's got plenty of cash,
He's got plenty of friends,
He drives women wild,
And he drives off in a Mercedes Benz,
He's got a long wick with a flame at both ends.
He's hot.

CHORUS:
But don't let him go.
Just give him a chance to grow.
Take it easy take it slow,
But don't let him go.
Don't let him go.

He makes you so angry,
He makes you so sore.
The wait may be worth it,
But how can you wait anymore?
When you're wondering what you're waiting for?
Baby, I don't know.

CHORUS

I can't fight this feeling any longer.
더 이상 주체 할수 없어요
And yet I'm still afraid to let it flow.
그러나 그냥 흘러 보내기는 아직도 두려워요
What started out as friendship has grown stronger.
우정으로 시작된 것이 더욱 강해졌어요
I only wish I had the strength to let it show.
그걸 보여줄 힘이 있었으면 좋겠어요

I tell myself that I can't hold out forever.
영원히 잡을 수 없다고 나에게 말하고 있어요
I said there is no reason for my fear.
내가 느끼는 두려움에 이유는 없다고 말합니다
Cause I feel so secure when we're together.
우리가 함께 있을 때 너무 편안하게 느껴지니까요
You give my life direction,
You make everything so clear.
당신은 삶의 방향을 알려주었고
모든 것을 명확하게 해주었죠
And even as I wander, I'm keeping you in sight.
내가 방황할 때 조차도 당신을 마음에 간직했어요
You're a candle in the wind on a cold,
dark winter's night.
당신은 춥고 어두운 밤에 창가의 촛불과 같았어요
And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might.
내가 생각했던 것보다 더 가까워졌어요

And I can't fight this feeling anymore.
난 더 이상 이 감정을 주체할수 없어요
I've forgotten what I started fighting for.
내가 왜 이 싸움을 시작했는지 잊어 버렸어요
It's time to bring this ship into the shore,
해안으로 이 배를 가져갈 시간입니다
And throw away the oars, forever.
그리고 영원히 노를 버릴 거예요

Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore.
더 이상 이 감정을 참을 수 없으니까요
I've forgotten what I started fighting for.
내가 왜 이 싸움을 시작했는지 잊어버렸어요
And if I have to crawl upon the floor,
내가 만일 마루에서 괴로워 하면
Come crushing through your door,
당신의 문을 부수고 들어오세요
Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore.
더 이상 이 감정을 주체할수 없어요

My life has been such a whirlwind since I saw you.
당신을 만난 후 나의 삶은 마치 폭풍 같았어요
I've been running round in circles in my mind.
마음 속에서만 맴 돌았지요
And it always seems that I'm following you, girl,
나는 항상 당신을 따르기만 했어요
Cause you take me to the places
that I'd known I'd never find.
당신은 나 혼자선 찾지 못할 곳으로
나를 이끌기 때문이죠
And even as I wander I'm keeping you in sight.
내가 방황할 때 조차도 당신을 마음에 간직했어요
You're a candle in the wind on a cold,
dark winter's night.
당신은 춥고 어두운 밤에 창가의 촛불과 같았어요
And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might.
내가 생각했던 것보다 더 가까워졌어요

And I can't fight this feeling anymore.
난 더 이상 이 감정을 참을 수 없어요
I've forgotten what I started fighting for.
내가 왜 이 싸움을 시작했는지 잊어 버렸어요
It's time to bring this ship into the shore,
해안으로 이 배를 가져갈 시간입니다
And throw away the oars, forever.
그리고 영원히 노를 버릴 거예요

Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore.
더 이상 이 감정을 참을 수 없으니까요
I've forgotten what I started fighting for.
내가 왜 이 싸움을 시작했는지 잊어버렸어요
And if I have to crawl upon the floor,
내가 만일 마루에서 괴로워 하면
Come crushing through your door,
당신의 문을 부수고 들어오세요
Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore.
더 이상 이 감정을 주체할수 없어요

I used to be lonely till I learned about livin alone
I found other things to keep my mind on
And I'm gettin to know myself a little bit better
Whoa , I keep pushin on
Keep pushin on, yeah

Goin through all the changes I made so many mistakes, oh yes I did
Tryin to leave behind the heartaches
And sometimes I think I was a little bit crazy, oh yeah
Whoa, I keep pushin on

Keep pushin, keep pushin, keep pushin, keep pushin on
Keep pushin, keep pushin, you know you have got to be so strong
Keep pushin, keep pushin, well even if you think your strength is gone
Keep pushin on

(solo)

Well it's comin together I finally feel like a man, oh yes I do
I never thought that I'd be where I am, oh
Everyday I wake a little bit higher
Whoa I keep pushin on, oh yeah
(repeat chorus)

I've been around for you
I've been up and down for you
But I just can't get any relief
I've swallowed my pride for you
I've lived and lied for you
But you still make me feel like a thief

You got me stealin' your love away
'Cause you never give it
Peeling the years away
And we can't relive it
I make you laugh
And you make me cry
I believe it's time for me to fly

You said we'd work it out
You said that you had no doubt
That deep down we were really in love
Oh, but I'm tired of holding on
To a feeling I know is gone
I do believe that I've had enough

I've had enough of the falseness
Of a worn out relation
Enough of the jealousy
And the intoleration
I make you laugh
And you make me cry
I believe it's time for me to fly

{Refrain} Time for me to fly
Oh, I've got to set myself free
Time for me to fly
And that's just how it's got to be
I know it hurts to say goodbye
But it's time for me to fly

Oh, don't you know it's...
{Refrain}

It's time for me to fly
{Repeat to end}

You and your baby had some words today
Till not another word was left to say
I see that grin boy
Maybe you think you'll win boy
Until the sun goes down and once again boy

One lonely night
One lonely night
That's all it takes to completely break you

They say it's darkest right before the dawn
But oh those darkest hours can be so long
You're feeling strong boy
Tellin yourself she's wrong boy
But how much longer can this night go on boy

One lonely night
One lonely night
That's all it takes to completely break you

One lonely night
One lonely night
That's all it takes to completely break you

Oooh she's such a good find
Have you gone and lost your mind
You should know she's one of a kind

Oooh she's such a good find
Have you gone and lost your mind
You should know she's one of a kind

Just one lonely night
One lonely night
That's all it takes to completely break you

Back On The Road Again
Please don't hate me mama for what I'm about to do
But the good times we've had together are just about now through
Please don't misunderstand me, I hate to see you cry
But I think that it might look better if I told you now goodbye
I'm back on the road again, it's time I leave you now
And maybe I'll see you next time, that I'm around
Until then I hope your happy baby and good times come your way
I'm back on the road again, I'm on my way

Well I've loved you since the day I met you and I'll love you till the day I die
But we both know the life I'm livin and we both know the reason why
That I've got to leave ya mama and I've got to leave today
But you know that I'll see you next time that I come through your town to play

(chorus) ooh, bye-bye baby

(solo)

(chorus)

Ridin' the storm out, waitin' for the thaw out
On a full moon night in the Rocky Mountain winter.
My wine bottle's low, watching for the snow
I've been thinking lately of what I'm missing in the city.

And I'm not missing a thing
Watchin' the full moon crossing the range
Ridin' the storm out
Ridin' the storm out.

My lady's beside me, she's there to guide me.
She says that alone we've finally found home.
The wind outside is frightening,
but it's kinder than the lightning life in the city.
It's a hard life to live but it gives back what you give.
