Bonnie Raitt [보컬]

Fate is mighty cruel
Where true love is concerned
It seems you give out more
Than you ever have returned
Lately I have tried
To make it on my own
Another nite has passed
Looks like Im bound to be alone
Bound to be alone

Now solitude is fine
When you really need it
When your soul is dry
Sometimes loneliness can feed it
When you need a lover
You know theres nothin else will do
When you need love most
You know it turns its back on you

Oh, I can make it thru without your company
I only wish I knew why you wont comfort me
I thot that I could count on you
To hear me cryin out
I guess thats one comfort
I will learn to do without

Fallin love too easily
But never quite so fast
so you are not the first and, lord
You sure wont be the last
The thing about the situation
That makes me feel so sad
I couldve been the best old friend
That you have ever had
I couldve been the best old friend
That you have ever had

I never thought that a love could be so strong
It could ever make me, think about leaving home
I can't help myself your lovin bout to drive me mad
One more night like last night, I might have to pack my bags
Bout to make me leave home boy

Got my mind so
Gettin together with this love, boy it just ain't right
I ain't got the strength to turn a good lovin loose
But I never met a man in my life who could whoop it to me like you do

Bout to make me leave home boy
Got a taste of forbidden fruit
And I can't turn it loose
What is this good thing you carry around with you
That makes a girl want to act a fool

Got that love technique that really really cracks me up
Seeing you once or twice a week, boy it just ain't enough.

Once upon a time, a long long time ago,
wherever you would lead me, I would surely follow
Boy, you put me through some pain and misery
And now you are standing at my doorstep,
Telling me how much you need me

Ain't nobody home
Ain't nobody home

How many times I begged for you to come home,
But you laughed at me and said to let you alone
Through my falling tears I saw you walk away
And now you're beggin' me to forgive you,
But this time, baby, it's your turn to pay

Ain't nobody home
Ain't nobody home

Boy, I used to love you,
I placed no one else above you
Gave you everything that I owned
But baby you can't come back here
'cause there ain't nobody home

Ain't nobody home

Once upon a time, when you went on your way
How I hoped and prayed, that you'd come back some day
But time has made some changes, and turned me upside down
And now you're beggin' me to forgive you,
But this time, baby, you can turn right around

'Cause there ain't nobody home
Ain't nobody home
Ain't nobody home
Ain't nobody home

Had a fight with my daughter,
She flew off in rage.
Third time this week,
Don't tell me it's the age.
Don't know how I've lost her,
Only know that it's a shame.
Ever since her daddy left,
The girl ain't been the same.

(Chorus)
All at once I hear your voice,
And time just slips away.
Nothing they can say can hold me here.
Take me where I only feel,
The wind across my face.
Let me know there's some place left for me.
Waiting there for me...

Aww, who'm I kidding?
I should've known he'd never leave.
The time we spend together,
Is harder than the time between.
You wouldn't think it could hurt so,
To see them out the other day.
If that's what he calls leaving...
I guess I threw it all away.

(Chorus)

They say women, we're the stronger.
Somehow we always make it through.
Well, that ain't what I feel right now.
I don't even think it's true.
To me there's lots more broken,
Than anyone can really see.
Why the angels turn their backs on some;
It's a mystery to me.

(Chorus)

A little rich girl I knew was fallin' apart
(She had it all)
Lost her dreams to find a piece of his heart
(He let her fall)
Now you're on your own and it's not the same
(Oh, things do change)
There is no one there who will take the blame
You just need some time to figure it out

All day, all night
Your way, this is your life
All day, all night
Your way

Take a look inside yourself and you'll find
(You still can win)
'Cause only you little girl can make up your mind
(You're your best friend)
Don't you worry 'bout that thing that you had
(You've got a chance)
You're lookin' good little girl so don't feel so bad
Spend a little time so you can figure it out

All day, all night
Your way, this is your life
All day, all night
Your way, oooooh

(Take a little time, figure it out
Take a little time, figure it out)

A little rich girl I knew was comin' around
(She's got it all)
Keep lookin' up little girl and don't you look down
Spend a little time so you can figure it out

All day, all night
Your way, this is your life
All day, all night
Your way

All day, all night
Your way, this is your life
All day, all night
Your way

I've had my dreams
And they're all about you
What will I do with my dreaming?
And I've had my schemes
And it seems that they'll get me through
But will I do without you?

Angel, tell me what will I do
Sailing alone without you?
I know you have made your plans
Angel, now what will you see
Sailing alone without me?
Angel, tell me what will you see
Sailing alone without me?

Sailing alone without me
Angel, tell what will you see
Sailing alone without me?

I am an old woman
named after my mother
an old man is another
child who's grown old

If dreams were thunder
lightning was desire
this old house it would've burned down
a long time ago

Make me an angel
that flies from Montgomery
Make me a poster
of an old rodeo
Just give me one thing
that I can hold on to
to believe in this livin'
is just a hard way to go

When i was a young girl
I had me a cowboy
it wasn't much to look at
it was a free ramblin' man
There was a long time
no matter how I tried
the years they just rolled by
like a broken down dance

Make me an angel
that flies from Montgomery
Make me a poster
of an old rodeo
Just give me one thing
that I can hold on to
to believe in this livin'
is just a hard way to go

There's flies in the kitchen
I can hear them there buzzin'
And I ain't done nothing since I woke up today
But how the hell can a person
go on to work in the morning
to come home in the evening
and have nothing to say

Make me an angel
that flies from Montgomery
Make me a poster
of an old rodeo
Just give me one thing
that I can hold on to
to believe in this livin'
is just a hard way to go

I am an old woman
named after my mother
an old man is another
child who's grown old

If dreams were thunder
lightning was desire

a long time ago

Make me an angel

Make me a poster

If you don't love her, you'd better let her go
You'll never fool her, you're bound to let it show
Love's so hard to take when you have to fake everything in return
You just preserve her when you serve her a little tenderness

If she's a woman she'll try to make it last
If you're a man now, you'd better to end it fast
There's no reason here, no treason here, just the way of a woman's mind
She has no blame, she has no shame, she just loves you

It's not easy to undo what's done
Or to speak too freely to just anyone
And if this takes more than you've bargained form, Boy it's time you learned
Not to talk so loud or walk so proud
When you're comin' on

Turning into something
Drifting off to old ways
Got to pull myself back in

Holding back the questions
We're bruised with all rejection
Gotta pull myself back in

Suffer the breaks
You know I still remember it
It keeps burning away
I know that you may take a while
To come back around

Come back around
I miss you around

Reaching out for someone
Burning out for so long
Got to pull myself back in
There's no new religion
And there's no real solution
Gotta pull myself back in

Suffer the breaks
You know I still remember it
It keeps burning away
I know that you may take a while
To come back around

Suffer the breaks
You know I still remember it
It keeps burning away
I know that you may take a while
To come back around

Come back around
Come back around

Feel you're going under
So keep on treading water
Got to pull myself back in
Feel no obligation
But no more indecision
Gotta pull myself back in

Well I ain't goin' down that big long lonesome road
Pretty baby don't you hear me talkin'
No I ain't goin' down that big road by myself
If I can't carrry you baby
I'm gonna get me someone else

Alright boys
Well the sun is gonna shine in my back door some
My back door some, my door someday
You know the sun is gonna shine in
My back door some day
That big wind is gonna come up and blow my blues away

Now if you don't want me baby
Now why don't you tell me
Now why don't you tell me, tell me so
If you don't want me baby why don't you tell me so
It ain't like I'm a woman who ain't got no place to go

Play it right now
Now what good is a bulldog, if he won't fuss or
He won't fuss or fight pretty baby
What good is a bulldog, if he won't fuss or fight.
And what good is a man can't make his wolf stay all night

When I was a girl, my favorite thing
In the whole wide world
Was to see a field and
Run for no reason
And off I'd go, no one behind
Only earth below
Just a patch of green, green as the season
Don't ask why, your feet just fly
Green and sky is all that you're needin
Why ask why, when all that's true
The sky is blue, blue for no reason
Now that things have changed
Everything's carefully prearranged
Not a thing gets done
Except for a reason
Now I'm overrun, I'm startin to feel
Like a hired gun
Where's the chance, where's the fun
Where is the pleasin?
Try and try, you moan and sigh
You just can't find a thing to believe in
Why ask why, when all that's true
The sky is blue, blue for no reason
Don't ask why, your feet just fly
Green and sky is all that you're needin
Why ask why, when all that's true
You're just blue, blue for no reason

Listen to my blue bird laugh she can tell you why,
Deep within her heart you see, she knows only right
whoa-oo just light
There she sits this lofty bird the strangest color blue
flying is forgotten now she thinks only of you
woo just you
So get all those blues, must be a thousand hues, and each is differently used
you just know, you sit there mezmerized by the deepth of her eyes
and if you categorize she got soul, she got soul, she got soul

Soon she's gon' to fly away, her sadness is her own
Leave beside her bath of tears, she'll go home

Watch out, you might get what you're after
Cool baby, you're strange but not a stranger
I'm an oridinary girl and I'm burnin' down the house

Hold tight, wait till this party's over
Hold tight, well we're gonna be in for some nasty weather
There has got to be a way and we're burnin' down the house

Here's your ticket, pack your bags, it's time for goin' overboard
Transportation is here
Close enough but we're not too far, bet you're wonderin' where you are
Fight fire with fire

All wet, and you might need a raincoat
Shake down, my dreams are walkin' in broad daylight
365 degrees and we're burnin' down the house

My house, out of the ordinary
That's right, I don't wanna really hurt nobody
Some things sure sweep me off my feet
And we're burnin down the house

Watch out, you might get what you're after
Cool baby, you're strange but not a stranger
I'm an oridinary girl and I'm burnin' down the house

Come on so tough
When you think you got a right
Make love so rough
Until I lose the will to fight
You got that somethin', baby
That turned my darkness in the light
And I can't get enough of your love

I never found a man
Who took the time to see
The woman that I am
And not the one he hoped I'd be

And I think we're onto somethin'
And it's good enough for me
I just can't get enough of your

Come on so tough
Baby, you know just how to please
You got that stuff
Brings this woman to her knees

I think we're onto somethin'
That is good enough for me
I just can't get enough of your
I just can't get enough of your
And I just can't get enough of your love

Can't get enough of your love
Can't get enough of your love
Just can't get it

Can't get enough of your love
Just can't get it
Can't get enough of your love

Can't get enough of your love
Well, I can't get enough of your love

Come on so tough
When you think you got a right
Make love so rough
Until I lose the will to fight
You got that somethin', baby
That turned my darkness in the light
And I can't get enough of your love

I never found a man
Who took the time to see
The woman that I am
And not the one he hoped I'd be

And I think we're onto somethin'
And it's good enough for me
I just can't get enough of your

Come on so tough
Baby, you know just how to please
You got that stuff
Brings this woman to her knees

I think we're onto somethin'
That is good enough for me
I just can't get enough of your
I just can't get enough of your
And I just can't get enough of your love

Can't get enough of your love
Can't get enough of your love
Just can't get it

Can't get enough of your love
Just can't get it
Can't get enough of your love

Can't get enough of your love
Well, I can't get enough of your love

Come on so tough
When you think you got a right
Make love so rough
Until I lose the will to fight
You got that somethin', baby
That turned my darkness in the light
And I can't get enough of your love

I never found a man
Who took the time to see
The woman that I am
And not the one he hoped I'd be

And I think we're onto somethin'
And it's good enough for me
I just can't get enough of your

Come on so tough
Baby, you know just how to please
You got that stuff
Brings this woman to her knees

I think we're onto somethin'
That is good enough for me
I just can't get enough of your
I just can't get enough of your
And I just can't get enough of your love

Can't get enough of your love
Can't get enough of your love
Just can't get it

Can't get enough of your love
Just can't get it
Can't get enough of your love

Can't get enough of your love
Well, I can't get enough of your love

I don't know why it should be so hard
Giving up this circle dance
Worn out steps from long ago
Don't give love a chance

It's a bitter heirloom handed down
These twisted parts we play
I'm not her and you're not him
It just comes out that way

Can't go back to make things right
Though I wish I understood
Time has made things clearer now
We did the best we could

I'll be home soon, that's what you'd say
And a little kid believes
After a while I learned that love
Must be a thing that leaves

I tried so hard just to hold you near
Was as good as I could be
Even when I had you here
You stayed so far from me

Can't go back to make things right
Though I wish I understood
Time has made things clearer noe
You did the best you could

Now that this has occured to me
I just want you to know
I've been too faithful all my life
It's time to let you go

All I ever wanted was our love to be true
More than just enough to get me by
I want a love to see me through
I don't need another well-spent night,
Another clever sideways glance
I wanna look my baby in the eye
And know there's nothing left to chance

Well if you're tired of being lonely, beat up and confused
Darling, there's only one thing you can do:
Come to me
Don't be the one who's waiting
Come to me
Babe, I got what you need
Wont you come to me
There won't be no hesitating, babe
I know what you mean to me

I'm gonna hold out for no one
Ain't gonna settle for less
'Cause the kind of love I'm looking for, baby,
You can't fake, you can't finesse
I ain't looking for the kind of man, baby,
Who can't stand a little shaky ground
Who'll give me fire and tenderness
And has got the guts to stick around

Well if you're tired of being lonely, beat up and confused,
Darling, there's only one thing you can-
I got what you want, baby
Oh, and I got what you need
Well if you're tired of being lonely, beat up and confused,
Darling there is only one thing you can do:
Come to me
Be the one who's waiting
Come to me
Ooh, I got what you need
Come to me
There won't be no hesititing, babe
Won't you come to me
I got what you want now, baby
I got what you need
Won't you come
Won't you bring it on home to me
Won't you come
Won't you come on baby, bring it on home to me
Won't you come to me
Bring all of your sweet love home
Won't you come to me

All I ever wanted was our love to be true
More than just enough to get me by

Another clever sideways glance

Won't you come to me

I want to feel my earth turn over,baby
In this hardened winter ground
Feel my earth turn over, darlin'
Till' I'm rootless and unbound
I want to feel my body tremble
When there's no one else around
Just this cool, clear water runnin'
In this love that I've found

Hey baby
See how it can be
Every time you reveal yourself tome
I'll come runnin'

I want to feel myself go under,baby
Where the deepest river bleeds
I want to feel it pull me under,darlin'
Until it drops me to my knees
I want to know that I can findyou
When there's no more eyes tosee
In this cool, clear water runnin'
You'll come runnin' to me

hey baby
All my life I have known there'ssomething more
A love to blind me like the sun
Deep in dreams, I will wash upon your shore
Now I know that you're the one

When I feelmy babycallin'
It's like awhisper inAnd whenthe softestrain is fallin', darlin'
I will crumble in your hand
And when all that's left is wonder
And no need to understand
Well this cool, clear waterrunnin'
Will be all that I am...

My body is the only place
Where we meet anymore
Thought that I could handle the heartache
Like I did before
I remember your warning
To never mention love
A little crime of passion
Is what I'm guilty of

There were no witnesses
Just the candlelight
Glowin' as your sweetness awakened
Every warm delight

Show me some mercy
What a fool I have become
A little crime of passion
That's what I'm sufferin' from

Kisses ago it was so easy
Dreams we shared together faded to forever
And I just don't wear despair very well
I can tell

Now it's such a painful time
And I'm too far gone
Where are all the clever defenses
I depended on?

How could I be so crazy
To believe all the things you say?
A little crime of passion
Is takin' my breath away

Show me some mercy
What a fool I've become
A little crime of passion
That's what I'm sufferin' from

Baby, oh, just a little crime of passion
What I'm sufferin' from
What I'm sufferin' from
What I'm sufferin' from
Oh, just a little crime of passion
Is what I'm sufferin' from

I could say what I mean
(or I could dance around it)
It would feel good to scream
(I should quiet down)
I could be recognized
(or I could stay in bed)
Look the world in the eyes
(or just hang my head)

I'm holding steady this crooked crown
Knowing I'll lose it if I look down

When my ship has come in
(when it runs aground)
I'll be smiling again
(turn those corners down)
I've got something to say
(no one's listening)
It's my reckoning day
(so where's the reckoning?)

I'm holding steady this crooked crown
Knowing I'll lose it if I look down
I'm holding steady this crooked crown

My prodigy and my idiot play
For the prize of my delicate line
Somehow the score at the end of
The day is still 51-49

I'm holding steady this crooked crown
Knowing I'll lose it if I look down
I'm holding steady this crooked crown

Life isn't easy
Love never lasts
You just carry on
And keep moving fast

I turned off the highway
Pulled into town
I'm fancy free darlin'
And I've travelled round

Sometimes I'm up
Sometimes I'm down
Tell me where can I run to
Tell me how have I sinned
When you cry like a rainstorm
And howl like the wind

So who shall I start with
Tell me how to begin
When you cry like a rainstorm
And howl like the wind

My thoughts are lost in memories
That keep me free
Know if all the stars were shining
They would not help me see

Don't you know that
Sometimes I'm up
Most times down
Where can I run to
Tell me how have I sinned
You cry like a rainstorm
And you howl like the wind

Well my life isn't easy
And my love never seems to last
So I'll keep on carrying on darlin'
I'll just keep moving fast

I turned off the highway
Pulled into town
And I'm still fancy free
And I keep travellin' round

Sometimes I'm up
Most times I'm down
Where can I run to
Tell me how have I sinned
When you cry like a rainstorm
And you howl like the wind

So who shall I start with
Tell me how to begin
When you cry like a rainstorm
And you howl like the wind

Cry like a rainstorm
And you howl like the wind

I know it's hard sometimes
And things seem larger than they are
But if you need to tell someone
That's what I'm here for

Cry on my shoulder
I'll help you rise above
Cry on my shoulder, my love

Out in the world outside
It can be harsh and cold
But if you need someone
I will be here to hold you

Cry on my shoulder
I'll help you dry your eyes
Cry on my shoulder, my love

I know it's hard sometimes
And things seem larger than they are
But if you need to let it go
Then you can call on me

Cry on my shoulder
I'll help you dry your eyes
Cry on my shoulder, my love
Cry on my shoulder
I'll help you rise above
Cry on my shoulder, my love
My love...

I know it's hard sometimes
And things seem larger than they are
But if you need to tell someone
That's what I'm here for

Cry on my shoulder
I'll help you rise above
Cry on my shoulder, my love

Out in the world outside
It can be harsh and cold
But if you need someone
I will be here to hold you

Cry on my shoulder
I'll help you dry your eyes
Cry on my shoulder, my love

I know it's hard sometimes
And things seem larger than they are
But if you need to let it go
Then you can call on me

Cry on my shoulder
I'll help you dry your eyes
Cry on my shoulder, my love
Cry on my shoulder
I'll help you rise above
Cry on my shoulder, my love
My love...

You bring me roses
You give me kisses
You bring me moons and stars
That shine so high up in the sky
My heart is beating wild and crazy
Hope that I can find
A cure for this love
Could be you want me
Could be you care
Could be the words you say,
Are things I just want to hear
you me nervous, got me shaking
Maybe I can find
A cure for this love
La la la la...
Doctor, doctor
Give me healing, so I can stop this feeling
it's getting so much stronger
And I just can't go on much longer
Doctor please
Find me a way out of love
When the phone rings
And no one answers
The letters comeback saying
"Lover cannot be found"
Don't go looking, don't bother searching
You see it's cuz your baby
Found herself a cure for love
La la la la...

Darlin', I'm feeling pretty lonesome
I'd call you on the phone some
But I don't have dime

Darlin', you're so far behind me
Tomorrow is gonna find me
Further down the line
Take a piece of paper
A pencil in my hand
I'm gonna write

Darlin', I know I feel the cold nights
Thinking of the old nights
Spent alone with you

Darlin', tears are in my eyes now
Know that I should try now
To make it back to you

Darlin', I love you more than ever
I wish we were together
Darlin' mine

Darlin', I'm feeling pretty lonesome
I'd call you on the phone some
But I don't have a dime

Darlin', you're so far behind me
Tomorrow's gonna find me
Further down the line

Darlin', tears are in my eyes (oh, in my eyes)
You that I should try now (I should try to make it back to you)
To make it back to you

There are angels singing low inside my head
Cool tango blue and samba red
I want to scratch your name upon my wall
Cause I'm drowning here beneath love's waterfall

Deep water
Deep water

Baby you're love's got a hold on me
You row my boat right out to the sea
See the woman inside the girl
Dancing on the roof of the invisible world

We are walking like the waves beside the sea
There are oceans in my eyes that you can't see
And my arms reach out for you into the dark
I feel your skin where my nails left their mark

Deep water
Deep water

Baby you're love's got a hold on me
You row my boat right out to the sea
See the woman inside the girl
Dancing on the roof of the invisible world

Souls alike
Hands alike

Baby you're love's got a hold on me
You row my boat right out to the sea
See the woman inside the girl
Dancing on the roof of the invisible world

Baby you're love's got a hold on me
You row my boat right out to the sea
See the woman inside the girl
Dancing on the roof of the invisible world

Souls alike
Hands alike

This old house is falling down around my ears
I'm drowning in a river of my tears
When all my will is gone you hold me sway
I need you at the dimming of the day
You pulled me like the moon pulls on the tide
You know just where I keep my better side
What days have come to keep us far apart
A broken promise or a broken heart
Now all the bonny birds have wheeled away
I need you at the dimming of the day
Come the night you're only what I want
Come the night you could be my confidant
I see you the street and in company
Why don't you come and ease your mind with me
I'm living for the night we steal away
I need you at the dimming of the day
I need you at the dimming of the day...

I've been gone for so long
Feels so good just to get back home
Back to my friends
And other faces that I love to see

Like a rainbow that is in the sky
The certain twinkle is in her eye
Telling me she believes in
What I am and what I want to be

Well, don't it make you want to dance
Don't it make you want to smile
When your down, down, down
In the country big and sing a while

Don't it make you want to dance
Don't it make you want to smile
When your down, down, down
In the country big and sing a while

Oh Lord, don't it feel right tonight
Making music when you feel this right
Feeling better with every little single song

Look around everyone is your friend
And every one is bound to grin
And when the chorus comes around
Everybody jump on

Well, don't it make you want to dance
Don't it make you want to smile
When your down, down, down
In the country big and sing a while

Don't it make you want to dance
Don't it make you want to smile
When your down, down, down
In the country big and sing a while

Well, don't it make you want to dance
Don't it make you want to smile
When your down, down, down
In the country big and sing a while

Don't it make you want to dance
Don't it make you want to smile
When your down, down, down
In the country big and sing a while

Well, don't it make you want to dance
Don't it make you want to smile
When your down, down, down
In the country big and sing a while

Don't it make you want to dance
Don't it make you want to smile
When your down, down, down
In the country big and sing a while

I don't believe the things I'm seein'
I've been wonderin' 'bout some things I've heard
Everybody's crying mercy
When they don't know the meaning of the word

A bad enough situation
Is sure enough getting worse
Everybody's crying justice
Just as soon as there's business first

Toe to toe, touch and go
Give a cheer and get your own souvenir

Well you know the people running round in circles
Don't know what they're headed for
Everybody's crying peace on earth
Just as soon as we win this war

Straight ahead, gotta knock em dead
So pack your kit, choose your own hypocrite

You don't have to go to off-Broadway
To see something plain absurd
Everybody's crying mercy
When they don't know the meaning of the word

Nobody knows the meaning of the word

In my most secure moments, I still can't believe
I'm spending those moments with you
And the ground I am walking, the air that I breathe
Are shared at those moments with you

You love for real,
You show the feel
Of everything that touches you

In the songs I've been singing, quite often a phrase
Comes close to the feeling of you
BUt I never suspected that one of those days
The wish of a song would come true

You love for real,
You show the feel
Of everything that touches you

You are of gracefulness, you are of happiness
You are what I would guess to be most like
What I've been singing of
Love, love, love, love

In the songs I've been singing, quite often a phrase
Comes close to the feeling of you
But I never suspected that one of those days
The wish of a song would come true

You love for real, you show the feel
Of everything that touches you
Love, love, love, love

I met you on a Monday
But Tuesday you stole my heart
You gave me everything I ever wanted
And then turned and walked away
You just turned and walked away
I get excited, excited
Whenever you come around
I get excited, always building me up
And never letting me down, excited

As simple as one, two, three
I get excited
That's what you're doin'
What you're doin' to me

That's what you're doin'
That's what you're doin'

Just when I thought I was over you
Soon as I was sure you were gone
I see you somewhere standin' 'cross the room
But you turn and walk away
You just turn and walk away

I still get excited, excited
Whenever you come around
I get excited, always building me up
And never letting me down, excited

As simple as one, two, three
I get excited
That's what you're doin'
That's what you're doin' to me

That's what you're doin'
That's what you're doin' to me

That's what you're doin'
That's what you're doin'

Now that I know the problem
The answer should be easy to find
It takes common sense to simply convince him
Not to turn and walk away
Tryin' to get that man to stay

I still get excited
Whenever you come around
I get excited, baby, always building me up
And never letting me down, excited

As simple as one, two, three
I get excited
That's what you're doin'
That's what you're doin' to me

That's what you're doin'
That's what you're doin'
Hey, way to get next to me
Way to get next to me

Come my love
Come bravely to me
Let your heart be still
For our time
Has come my tender one
To be free of will
And fly
Blind on fearless love
Let them wild winds blow
We'll shine
On all we're fearful of
Then we'll let it go
Let it go
Skippin' stones
Across the great unknown
Safe at water's edge
Don't look down, baby
We're gonna leave this losin' town
(and) leap out from the ledge
And fly
Blind on fearless love
Let them wild winds blow
We'll shine
On all we're fearful of
Then we'll let it go
Let it go

Sometimes I miss that feeling of falling
Falling on over the ledge
You know I miss that feeling of falling
Falling on over the ledge
And when my mind it gets to worryin'
And I just can't get no rest
Oh Baby, that's when I call you up instead

It's after midnight baby, I'm sittin' here all alone
I tried to call your number baby,
but you weren't at home
I been a good girl baby, through with all that mess
But the way I'm feelin' now, darlin'
Well it scares me half to death

Well I miss that feelin', of fallin'
On over the ledge

That summer night in Texas, baby
Too hot and wet to sleep
I heard you pull up in the distance
You're comin' to get me relief
We went screamin' down the highway, baby
So much faster than we should
You pulled me over in the moonlight
Man, I still can feel that hood

Well I miss that feeling of fallin',
On over the ledge
When that rain starts baby, I want to take a real
Good look at that ledge

It ain't something you get over
You might think you made it through
You can turn your head and walk away
But it never takes it's eyes off you

It'll push your foot right through the floorboard
Make you cut them streamers down his back
You waste what's precious and you can't afford
It runs your life right off the track

Keeps you boilin' in that poison
Only the truly twisted know so well
You don't need drugs to show you heaven, baby
'cause there's plenty clean in hell

That miss that feelin' of fallin'
Of fallin' on over the ledge

When the blues start callin' I want to crawl way up close to the ledge

Sometimes I miss that feeling of falling
Falling on over the ledge
You know I miss that feeling of falling
Falling on over the ledge
And when my mind it gets to worryin'
And I just can't get no rest
Oh Baby, that's when I call you up instead

It's after midnight baby, I'm sittin' here all alone
I tried to call your number baby,
but you weren't at home
I been a good girl baby, through with all that mess
But the way I'm feelin' now, darlin'
Well it scares me half to death

Well I miss that feelin', of fallin'
On over the ledge

That summer night in Texas, baby
Too hot and wet to sleep
I heard you pull up in the distance
You're comin' to get me relief
We went screamin' down the highway, baby
So much faster than we should
You pulled me over in the moonlight
Man, I still can feel that hood

Well I miss that feeling of fallin',
On over the ledge
When that rain starts baby, I want to take a real
Good look at that ledge

It ain't something you get over
You might think you made it through

You don't need drugs to show you heaven, baby
'cause there's plenty clean in hell

That miss that feelin' of fallin'
Of fallin' on over the ledge

When the blues start callin' I want to crawl way up close to the ledge

The man I'm lovin'
Don't worry 'bout me runnin' around
You won't ever find my baby
Hustlin' after me all over town
He don't have to shout
He don't even have to call
Knows I'm comin' home
Even if I got to crawl
He'll get me when he wants me
He's the finest lovin' man around

When he gets up in the morning
Or when he comes home late at night
You know the man's always hungry
Knows I'm gonna cook it up just right
He don't ever hurry
He just takes his time
Just a little taste is all it takes to make him mine
He'll get it when he wants it
He's the finest lovin' man around

Some women they act just
Like their men will never come to no good
You know they are always on the cheat
And never treat him like a good woman should
You want him to do you right
Honey, that ain’t the way
You got to love him all night
You do just what he say
And you get just what you give out
That's the only way to gain his faith

Now me and my baby
We always know just what we're puttin' down
And we know we'll be together
Til the day when something better comes around
Til that day comes
You won't hear me complaining
I'll take him as like he is
Cause you know I can't change him
I'll love him best I can
He's the finest lovin' man around

Lookout boy your bound to change
You can't ever stay the same
Cause if ya keep on sayin the same ol'lies
Your gonna look around boy and find
Yourself outta time

Watchout girl the words you say
Don't really fit the play
Somebody else you might talk to now
And knows what ya say and what ya mean
But don't help this time

You might say that you ain't
Got a, hold on yourself
You might say that you only try your best
You might say that you only need a rest
You might say you can only fool yourself
Fool yourself, fool yourself

Don't believe the words you read
Their written on the street
Evry time you try to lay their game
Their gonna knock you down
And take your pride away

See how bad you need to cry
But no matter how hard you try
Its the same old story once again
You always hide from the one
Who calls you friend
I call you friend

You might say that you ain't
Got a, hold on yourself
You might say that you only try your best
You might say that you only need a rest
You might say you can only fool yourself
Fool yourself, fool yourself

Bad mistake, crying shame
Get on playing that damn fool's game
Bad mistake is a crying shame
Get on playing that damn fool's game

Stopping thinking about what you want to do
Then taking a good look what's looking real good to you
I think we're hard about what it is you see
Is that really where you want to be

Look were hard alone
Seeing what's going on
It's a fool's game

Well, you're living rough, you're living on the street
When you're mind and your body and soul it ain't what you think
Well, you got a good parade energy use it if you can
You're gonna lie yourself to be a ragged on by the man

But there's a lot of jungle
There's a lot of land, to get caught in the middle
To try to make the best you can

It's a fool's game
It's a damn fool's game
It's a fool's game
It's a damn fool's game

But there's a lot of jungle
There's a lot of land, to get caught in the middle
To try to make the best you can

It's a fool's game
It's a fool's game
It's a fool's game
It's a fool's game

It's a fool's game
It's a fool's game
It's a fool's game
It's a fool's game

Bad mistake, crying shame
Get on playing that damn fool's game
Bad mistake is a crying shame
Get on playing that damn fool's game

Bad mistake, crying shame
Get on playing that damn fool's game
Bad mistake is a crying shame
Get on playing that damn fool's game

Bad mistake, crying shame
Get on playing that damn fool's game

Their eyes are down and the track looks slow
It don't look like a good thing
Your horse could jump it when the pack runs wild
It don't look like a sure thing

You must be crazy
To gamble this way
The kids are crying
And your bills ain't paid
Gamblin' man, ramblin' fool
I must be crazy to gamble on you

The deal is done so you slip right in
You got the depth but you can't win
The cards are cold and the cut feels thin
You got the deck but you can't win

You must be crazy
To gamble this way
The kids are hungry
And your brain ain't paid
Gamblin' man, ramblin' fool
I must be crazy to gamble on you
Gamblin' man, you're a ramblin' fool
I must be crazy to gamble on you

Well, I told you pretty baby, such a long time ago,
If I found you with another, well I'd walk right out your door,
Woh, you might call me crazy, but there's one thing you should know,
Oh honey, if you want me to love you,
You've got to give it up or let me go.

I know it's useless to be jealous, I couldn't tire you if I tried,
But when I think of you messing behind my back
It brings a pain I just can't hide.
Oh baby, I've been true to you.
And if I can make that sacrifice, honey you can do it too.

Well, you come home drunk and nasty, you won't tell me where you've been.
Just when things are nice and sweet, you go back out again.
Why do you wanna mess up a good thing?
I'm gonna find me another man, one who wants to give me everything.

Well, I told you pretty baby, such a long time ago,

I'm down here workin' at my job
But I just can't concentrate
You keep messin' with my mind
Yeah, I'm circlin' round the bait
I got to take off early
I got to get you home
Gonna show you little woman why a dog loves a bone

We'll be gnawin' on it
Yeah, gnawin' on it
We be gnawin' on it
Ah, nah, baby don't do that

I dropped the kids at school this morning
Hung the clothes in the back
I'm trying to take care of my business
Nut my mind ain't on the track
You got me feeling kind of squirrelly
I got to get you in this place,
'Cause what I got in mind'll put a grin on your face.

We'll be gnawin' on it
Yeah, gnawin' on it
We be gnawin' on it
Ah, nah, baby don't do that

They say it's hard to keep it going
When you're together for so long
They say combustion's for the youngsters
We should be glad we get along
But they don't know nothin' 'bout it
They way you love me it's a shame
'Cause there ain't nobody better
Blowin' embers to a flame

We'll be gnawin' on it
Yeah, gnawin' on it
We be gnawin' on it
Ah, nah, baby don't do that

God was in the water that day
Pickin' through the roots and stones
Trippin' over sunken logs
Tryin' not to make his presence known

God was in the water that day
Wadin' in careful steps
Bubbles risin' from his feet
Comin' up from the muddy depths

Castin' out a line
Castin' out a line to the shadows
Castin' out a line but no one's biting

I am at my pitiful desk
Starin' at he colorless walls
Wishin' I was any place else
Down into a dream I fall

Sittin' in a tiny boat
Driftin' on the mindless sea
And if I disappear
At least I'm floating free

Castin' out a line
Castin' out a line to the darkness
Castin' out a line but no one's biting

God was in the air that day
Breathin' out a haunted breeze
Tryin' not to make a sound
Shufflin' through the dried up leaves

God was in the air that day
Circlin' like a drunken hawk
Sweepin' with a hungry eye
Over the ground I walk

Castin' out a line
Castin' out a line to the darkness
Castin' out a line but no one's biting

Castin' out a line
Castin' out a line to the shadows
Castin' out a line but no one's biting

God was in the water that day
Pickin' through the roots and stones
Trippin' over sunken logs
Tryin' not to make his presence known

The first time I brought you home
My mama said he ain't good enough
I don't want my girl to be alone
But I wonder is he good enough
I-I-I was doin some worryin' too
And I was thinkin' thinkin'
Am I good enough for you

The first time that I loved you
I know it was a little rough
But when at last we were still
You asked was it good enough
And I cried and looked in your eyes of blue
Cause I been prayin' prayin'

Good enough for you

Now I got to set your mind at ease
Got to stop your insecurities
Cause if anything
You're too good for me

Now it's strange how time's gone by
Since the day that we fell in love
And still some times we hafta ask ourselves
Was it good enough
And time is bound to make us see
Just how good
Good enough can be
Good enough can be
Good enough for you baby
Good enough for me

<fading>
Now, It won't be long
Good enough for me
Keep me warm, baby

Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey
Midnight, I'm wound up tight
Slowly comin' down in the daytime
I been lyin' low from work, hangin over from the hurt from you babe
But I'm gonna suffer through the strain, till I get a better thing with you
Darlin, me and you.

So hard to see so far ahead
When I can't seem to drag myself out of bed
Gotta find me a good man, a good man, good man. Yeah

You better stop, think about what you're saying
I was seriously dedicated, in the game of playin'
You made ten thousand promises you couldn't keep
I forgave you when you lied, pleaded and weeped
Put up with your disrespect and neglect
What an experience, I'll never forget.

Till now, everything I did was wrong (I'm sorry, baby)
Today you're free, but we live alone.
Gotta find me a good woman...Good woman...Good woman...Yeah.

It was twelve o'clock in the midnight hour
I heard the door slam, and then the shower
When I got up, you were already gone
I slipped and fell, from the water you left on.

Gotta find a good woman
Gotta find a good man
Gotta find a goodwoman
Gotta find a good man

I've got you on my mind, I'm feeling kind of sad and low,
I've got you on my mind, feeling kind of sad and low.
I'm wondering where you are, wondering why yoiu had to go.

Tears begin to fall every time I hear your name.
Tears begin to fall every time I hear your name.
And since you went away, nothing seems to be the same.

No matter how I try,
My heart just don't see why
I can't forget you.
If ever it shoud be
You want to come back to me,
You know I'd let you.

Tears begin to fall every time I hear your name.
Tears begin to fall every time I hear your name.
And since you went away, nothing seems to be the same.

I've got you on my mind, I'm feeling kind of sad and low,
I've got you on my mind, feeling kind of sad and low.

And since you went away, nothing seems to be the same.

I'm wondering where you are, wondering why you had to go.
I'm wondering where you are, wondering why you had to go.

Any old time
You got your tuned in
Baby by your side
And your pretty little cool ride
It feels so good
You got the top pulled in
Wind in your hair
Destination you don't care

Now move it on up
You know it's steerin' all rite
Foot's to the floor
But you think that you can domore
Wind shield clean
And the nite is so brite
Baby so near
And She's givin' you a green lite

Great sound on the radio
She feels something
Now you know there's no place that you'd rather be

Great sounds...

Any old time
You got your tuned in
Baby by your side
And your pretty little cool ride

Any old time
You got your tuned in
Baby by your side
And your pretty little cool ride
It feels so good
You got the top pulled in

You know it's steerin' all rite
Foot's to the floor
But you think that you can domore

Great sounds...

You got your tuned in
Baby by your side
And your pretty little cool ride

Yeah baby, I've been drinking, and I shouldn't come by I know
But I found myself in trouble darling, and I had nowhere else to go

Got some whiskey from a bar man, got some cocaine from a friend
I just had to keep on moving, till I was back in your arms again
----
Well I'm guilty, yeah I'm guilty, I'll be guilty for the rest of my life
How come I never do, what I'm supposed to do
How come nothing that I try to do ever turns out right
----
Well you know how it is with me baby, you know I just can't stand myself
It takes a whole lot of medicine, for me to pretend to be somebody else.

Hey!
Shut up.
Don't lie to me.
You think I'm blind but I got eyes to see
Hey!
Mister, how do you do.
Oh pardon me I thought I knew you.
Would you stand back baby 'cause I want to get a better look.
The big man who couldn't handle the little bit of love you took.

Hey, hey, have a heart, hey, have a heart.
If you don't love me, why don't you let me go?
Have a heart, please, oh don't you have a heart?
Little by little you fade while I fall apart.

Oh Oh Oh darling, I love you so.
I told you yes, and then you told me no.
Baby, how can you say
You should be free and I should pay and pay
And you talk and talk about LOVE and what you need
But sooner or later your love is gonna make me bleed.

Hey, hey, have a heart, hey, have a heart.
If you don't love me, why don't you let me go?
Have a heart, please, oh don't you have a heart?

And sooner or later that love is gonna make you bleed.

Hear me Lord
Hear me I pray
Help me now, help me Lordl
Help me Lord I'm feeling low
Help me now, help me Lordl
Help me Lord I'm feeling low

I'm feeling low, I'm feeling low
Help me Lord, I'm feeling low
I'm feeling low, I'm feeling low

Help me Lord, I'm feeling low
Have mercy, have mercy on me
Help me Lord, Help me I pray

Hey mister, we want you to know
We think you've taken this about as far as it can go
It's about to blow
You got nowhere to run
Why don't you sit back and watch the show

Used to drop your little darlin' off at Sunday School
Family values while you're gettin' some behind the pool
She's nobody's fool
So don't be actin' surprised when your daughter
Wants it bad as you

You jack up the rent, you call in a loan
Clear your intent is to screw 'em out of all they own
Throw the dog a bone
Well you'll be cryin' for mercy when your karma
Calls you on the phone

Times are hard...Ain't it a bitch
Japanese are makin' you twitch
All your investments are turnin' sour
Kinda spoils your happy hour

Look around, we're comin' your way
It's a wonder to us how you ever thought you'd
Get away
What you say
Well, the way it looks from here
You won't have to wait
The way it looks from here

No need to hesitate
Have a party celebrate
The way it looks from here
You won't have to wait for hell to pay...

Traveling at night, the headlights were bright
And we'd been up many an hour
And all through my brain
Came the refrain
Of home and it's warming fire

And Home
Sings me of sweet things
My life there has it's own wings
To fly over the mountains
Though I'm standing still

The people I've seen
They come in between
The cities of tiring life
The trains come and go,
But inside you know
The struggle will soon be a fight

And Home
Sings me of sweet things
My life there has it's own wings
To fly over the mountains
Though I'm standing still

Traveling at night,
The headlights were bright.
But soon the sun came through the trees
Around the next bend
The flowers will send
The sweet scene of home in the breeze

And Home
Sings me of sweet things
My life there has it's own wings
To fly over the mountains
Though I'm standing still

I ain't blue, baby
Just a little bit lonesome for some lovin'
Everything is fine
Just don't want to be all by myself

On a rainy day
I'm feelin' kind of funny
Dreaming 'bout some loverman who'll call me honey
Yeah and a good lookin' man
My heart inside
A lonely smile and lovin' in his eyes

No I ain't blue, baby
but I'm just a little bit lonesome for some love again
Everything is fine
Just don't want to be all by myself

Sit around the house
Readin' magazines
All the time thinkin' 'bout those same sweet dreams
Yeah, walk down the street
My heart jumps a beat
Every time I see some sweet man I want to meet

No I ain't blue, baby
but I'm just a little bit lonesome for some love again
Everything is fine
I just don't want to be all by myself

There ain't no use in me trying to tell you how I feel
'Cause what I feel ain't what you're feeling
I don't know what we did wrong
I just know if you come home
I ain't gonna let you break my heart again

There ain't no use in me trying to find out where you've been
Where you've been ain't where I'm going
'Cause if I ask you where you've been
The hurting starts and it don't end
So I ain't gonna let you break my heart again, no
I ain't gonna let you break my heart again, no o

Tears don't become me
Pain ain't my friend
It seems like you enjoy my crying, baby
You always said that I was strong
But I believe that you were wrong
Lately, God knows, I have been trying

There ain't no use in you trying to kiss away the hurt, baby
'Cause it hurts where it's deep down inside of me and it's hiding
If you decide you're coming home
You walk in, it won't be like before
'Cause I ain't gonna let you break my heart again, no
Ain't gonna let you break my heart again, no no

There ain't no use in me trying to tell you how I feel
'Cause what I feel ain't what you're feeling
I don't know what we did wrong
I just know if you come home
I ain't gonna let you break my heart again

There ain't no use in me trying to find out where you've been
Where you've been ain't where I'm going
'Cause if I ask you where you've been
The hurting starts and it don't end
So I ain't gonna let you break my heart again, no
I ain't gonna let you break my heart again, no o

Tears don't become me
Pain ain't my friend
It seems like you enjoy my crying, baby
You always said that I was strong
But I believe that you were wrong
Lately, God knows, I have been trying

There ain't no use in you trying to kiss away the hurt, baby
'Cause it hurts where it's deep down inside of me and it's hiding
If you decide you're coming home
You walk in, it won't be like before
'Cause I ain't gonna let you break my heart again, no
Ain't gonna let you break my heart again, no no

I don't know what's wrong with me
I've been foolish as a fool can be
Baby, I can't sleep at night
And I lost my appetize
Went to the doctor but he don't know
It's getting to where it ain't funny no more
Tell me baby ehat I might gonna do
I believe I'm in love with you
I believe I'm in love with you
Tell me baby that you love me, too
I can't fight, baby I decided

I'm in love with you
I guess this time I realize
For you baby I got eyes
Come on baby and give me a chance
All I need is your romance
You know what I'm tryin' to fight
I'm telling you baby I'll be true
I believe I'm in love with you
I believe I'm in love with you
Tell me baby that you love me, too
I can't fight, baby I decided
I'm in love with you

Can't help myself, falling in love
I can't help myself
Can't help myself, falling in love
Billy was a friend of mine
We used to walk down by the river
And he'd hold my hand

We were only ten or twelve years old
Didn't know about love
I found out that it could hurt you so

Can't help myself, falling in love
I can't help myself
Can't help myself, falling in love

Jimmie was the one in high school days
We used to drive around the city
Thinking we'd grown up

Must've been just about sweet sixteen
I found a brand new world
Brand new love that I had never seen

Can't help myself, falling in love
I can't help myself
Can't help myself, falling in love

No matter how hard I try
I just can't leave it alone
No use in wonderin' why
'Cause my heart has a mind of its own

Can't help myself, falling in love
I can't help myself
Can't help myself, falling in love

But I keep on falling

Can't help myself, falling in love
I can't help myself
I keep on falling
Can't help myself, falling in love

I keep right on falling

Can't help myself, falling in love

Where were you when I was fallin down
Buzzin round your heart
Why'd you wait till I was moving on
To come out of the dark

To say I'm what you need
And you could spend your life with me

Well I can't help you now
(sorry baby, I can't help you)
No, I can't help you now
(keep away, I've fallen in love)
Maybe there was a time
But sometimes time runs out
And I can't help you know

Forty days since I stopped countin' the days
And countin the ways that I loved you
Good long while since I found
Good enough reasons to stop believin' that you
Are what I really want
And now that you you do baby, I don't

Well I can't help you now
(sorry baby, I can't help you)
No, I can't help you now
(keep away, I've fallen in love)
Maybe there was a time
But sometimes time runs out
And I can't help you know

Now you say I'm the one you need
And you could spend your life with me
But I can't help you know,no

I can't help you know

Baby there was a time
And I wish I could somehow
But I can't help you
Can't help you know

Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Don't patronize me

'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no, you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't

I'll close my eyes, then I won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
Morning will come and I'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight

'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours

Sleepless nights aren't so bad
I'm staying up, I'm staying sad
I don't want anything to change
I don't want anything to change
I like it lonely I like it strange
I don't want anything to change

You left a mess you're everywhere
I'd pick it up but I don't dare
I don't want anything to change
I don't want anything to change
There's nothing I would rearrange
I don't want anything to change

I can feel you fading
But until you're gone
I'm taking all the time I can borrow
The getting over is waiting
But I won't move on
And I'm gonna wanna feel the same tomorrow

I know the truth is right outside
But for the moment it's best denied
I don't want anything to change

I can feel you fading
But until you're gone
I'm taking all the time I can borrow
The getting over is waiting
But I won't move on
And I'm gonna wanna feel the same tomorrow

And I don't want anything to do
With what comes after you
I don't want anything to change
I don't want anything to change
I don't want anything to change

Sleepless nights aren't so bad
I'm staying up, I'm staying sad
I don't want anything to change
I don't want anything to change

Say goodbye,
'Well I know it's true.
I know you're leaving me but I,
'I'm leaving too.
You won't forget me,
'Or the sound of my name.
Please believe me,
'I feel the same.

It seems so empty now.
'Close the door.
Ain't it hard to believe that you ever,
' Lived this way before.
All that nothing,
' Causes all that pain.
Please believe me,
' I feel the same.

Well this broken soul,
'That I know a, a heart that's breakin'.
You can't make it whole
'Until you know what has been taken.
And all those pieces,
'Uh that you find them all your own.

I said goodbye.
'Now you know it's true.
You said you're leaving me, but honey I,
'I'm leaving too.
You won't forget me
'Or the sound of my name.
Please believe me,
'I feel the same.
Please believe me,
'I feel the same.

I gave my love a candle
A promise at life
And I told 'm when my number comes up
Winds would fill the sky
Me I'm fixin' to die
Moving down that same lonesome road
No I don't know why
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
You didn't have to fool me
You didn't have to lie
My love comes 'ound like a thief in the night
But only love can make you cry
And we have walked side by side
Moving down that same lonesome road
No I don't know why
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Your love was like a diamond ride a wave
on a sea that calms my mind
Moving onward to a distant shore
Where the boats sail in a line
We have danced to a fateful rhyme
Moving down the same lonesome road
No I don't know why
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
You didn't have to fool me, no
You didn't have to lie
If it all came out so ugly
It's only my love that could make you cry
And we have walked side by side
Moving down that same lonesome road
And I still don't know why
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Ooh ooh ooh
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

I don't have to love you at all

I know you don't want me no more, no more
No, no more
And it had to be someone loving you more
Lovin' you more
Ain't no use in me cryin' now all because you have put me down
If you don't want me no more baby,
ain't no use in me hanging around.

I know you don't love me no more;

I need love
And I search it everyplace I go
And lately I been in a zone
It's got a will of its own
But right now I'm here to discuss
Just what you think about us
I need love, I need love
And I'm checkin everything I see
You know at times I wanna take on three
That's just the way I could be
I let you know about that
Just so you know where I'm at
I need love, I need love
It's always been this way and ain't' nothin'
Gonna change it
And ain't nothing you can try
I need love, I need love
And I'm takin every chance I man
And baby you could make my day
There's just one thing I should say
Now that's it's all said and done
You know I do need to run
I need love, I need love

You took my love and ran away
What did you expect me to say
I gave you everything I could
But you weren't giving up, baby
What you should

I Sho do...Need you
I Sho do...Want you

I'm in need of what you've got
It makes my blood boiling hot
You told me baby, a long time ago
That you'd never, ever leave me
Never, no more

I Sho do...Need you
I Sho do...Want you
I Sho do...Wish for you
I Sho do...Walk the floor all night long

When you see me, baby standing alone
Come and help me baby, cause I'm out on my own
You see it ain't easy in the streets
But what you've got baby, could help me to my feet

I Sho do...Need you
I Sho do...Want you
I Sho do...Wish for you
I Sho do...Walk the floor all night Long

It's such a clever innocence with which you do your sorcery
As if somehow the years just bow and let that young girl go free
I thought I was a child until you turned and smiled
I thought I knew where I was going until I heard your laughter flowing
And came upon the wisdom in your eyes
Surprise--

I've spent my whole life running 'round
Chasing songs from town to town
Thinking I'd be free so long as I never let love slow me down
So lonely and so wild until you turned and smiled
By now I should have long been gone
But here I am still looking on
As if I didn't know which way to run

It's such a clever innocence with which you show myself to me
As if you know how it feels to never be who you wanted to be
I thought I was a child until you turned and smiled
I thought that I was free but I'm just one more prisoner of time
Alone within the boundaries of my mind
I thought I was a child

That was then and this is now
Found my way back here somehow
Knew you'd planned to let me go
Told you once I told you so

Take me down
You can hold me but you
Can't hold what's within
Pull me round
Push me to the limit
Maybe I may bend
But I know where I'm not going
I will not be broken
I will not be broken

I will not be someone other than who I am
I will fight to make my stand
What is living if I cant' be free
what is freedom if I can't be me

Take me down
You can hold me but you
Can't hold what's within
Pull me round
Push me to the limit
Maybe I may bend
But I know where I'm not going
I will not be broken
I will not be broken

I won't let you near it
'I will let my spirit fly
Highhh, highhh

Take me down
Take Me Down
You can hold me but you
Can't hold what's within
Pull me round
Push me to the limit
Maybe I may bend
But we both know I'm not going
I will not be broken
I will not be broken.
I will not be broken
Noooooo nooooo baby
