Laura Branigan

Through the back window of our '59 wagon
I watched my best friend Jamie slipping further away
I kept on waving till I couldn't see her
And through my tears I asked again why we couldn't stay
Mama whispered softly, time will ease your pain
Life's about changing, nothing ever stays the same

CHORUS:
And she said, how can I help you to say goodbye
It's okay to hurt, and it's okay to cry
Come let me hold you, and I will try
How can I help you to say goodbye

I sat on our bed, he packed his suitcase
I held a picture of our wedding day
His hands were trembling, we both were crying
He kissed me gently, and then he quickly walked away
I called up Mama, she said, time will ease your pain
Life's about changing, nothing ever stays the same

REPEAT CHORUS

Sitting with Mama, alone in her bedroom
She opened her eyes, and then squeezed my hand
She said, I have to go now, my time here is over
And with her final words she tried to help me understand
Mama whispered softly, time will ease your pain
Life's about changing, nothing ever stays the same

REPEAT CHORUS

Red like fire was the day I met you
I tell you now, there are no regrets
In this room there are many memories
Some are good, some I try to forget
I thought we were the chosen ones, who were supposed to fly

We're very much the same, you and I
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye
Still waiting to get hurt, time after time
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye
When love lies in our hands, we seem to run and hide
And I can't help but wonder why
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye

My heart was like a runaway train, babe
I don't believe I've ever felt more alive
In this room I hear voices linger
We never talked about the price
You know you're not the only one
Who knows how to cry

We're very much the same, you and I
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye
Still waiting to get hurt, time after time
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye
When love lies in our hands, we run away and hide
And I can't help but wonder why
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye
(repeat)

(Eric Martin/Andre Pessis)

I've been burned by love, fooled by deception
Though times have changed I still feel the pain
I would hold back my true emotions
And if someone got close I would change my direction

You walked into the picture
Right into my soul
I knew from the first night together
I never had a chance

I'm in over my heart this time
Don't know how I could be so blind
I was playin' it safe, but I made a mistake
Ignoring the danger signs
I'm in over my heart, over my heart this time

Well you told me you loved me
I got lost for a minute
Tangled in silence, nothing to say
I was in love, but I didn't know it
And the look on my face was a dead give away

Then you walked into the picture
Right into my soul
I knew from the first night together
I never had a chance

I'm in over my heart this time
And I can't get you out of my mind
It's like I'm frozen in place and I just can't run away

I'm in over my heart this time
Don't know how I could be so blind
I'm in over my heart
Over my heart this time

I'm in over my heart this time
And I can't get you out of my mind
I was playin' it safe, but I made a mistake
Ignoring the danger signs
I'm in over my heart, over my heart
Over my heart...

I'm in over my heart this time
And I can't get you out of my mind
I was playin' it safe, but I made a mistake

I'm in over my heart this time
And I can't get you out of my mind
I was playin' it safe, but I made a mistake

For the first time, in such a long time
I've been feelin' there's some reason
To hold on through the night
And for the first time since you broke this heart of mine
I find myself believin'
It's really gonna be alright
Now you're askin' me to let you walk back into my life
Something I can't bring myself to do

Cause it's been hard enough gettin' over you
Ya know you kept me holdin' on till the end
Oh it's been hard enough gettin' over you
I don't think that I could say goodbye again

I could trust you, but it's out of my hands
I once believed your promises
Believed in every word you said
I still love you but my heart won't take the chance
That all the pain I've left behind me,
Might be waiting for me up ahead
Just remember it was you who walked right out of my life
No you don't know what I've been through

But it's been hard enough gettin' over you
Ya know you kept me holdin' on till the end
Oh it's been hard enough gettin' over you
I don't think that I could say goodbye again

I made a promise to myself
And this one, I'm not gonna break
I've made it without you, and I'm not about to
Just turn around and make the same mistake

Cause it's been hard enough gettin' over you
Ya know you kept me holdin' on till the end
Oh it's been hard enough gettin' over you
I don't think that I could say goodbye
I don't think I could say goodbye
I know that I can't say goodbye again

Sitting in 'la castlette'
The same place we first met
Trying to talk it out before 'the fall'

You look the other way
I struggle for the words to say
Feels like I'm talking to the wall

I can here them play our song
But somehow it sounds all wrong
In a lost romance, dancing a lonely dance

With a heart that doesn't beat as much
Fingers that have lost their touch
Looking into eyes that just don't see

We dance a little loud at times
I laugh when I feel like crying
Is there anybody here but me

Two silhouettes in the dark
So close, so far apart
Going through the motions of the past

The night is coming to an end
It's getting harder to pretend
But still we try to keep this love alive

With a heart that doesn't beat as much
Fingers that have lost their touch
Looking into eyes that just don't see

We dance a little loud at times
I laugh when I feel like crying
Is there anybody here but me

Never dreamed what we started could end like this
Lovers saying goodbye with a stranger's kiss

With a heart that doesn't beat as much
Fingers that have lost their touch
Looking into eyes that just don't see

We dance a little loud at times
I laugh when I feel like crying
Is there anybody here but me
Is there anybody here but me
Is there anybody here but me

(Gloria Estefan/Jorge Casas/Clay Ostwald)

Oh I love my baby and my baby sure loves me
He understands me like no other so naturally
I spoil my baby with love too hot to throw away
I don't think he'll ever find another that 'll love him that way

Oh baby please, every night
The only thing I really need
To keep me satisfied
You really gotta love your girl
You really gotta love your girl, don't let go
Show her how much you care
You really gotta love your girl
You never gonna lose this girl
Say that it's true, she is your world

My baby knows me
He knows what I love and what to do
He takes me to heaven and I know just how to take him too
I know of no desire my baby has that I can't fulfill
For all the times that we've made love
I've never really had my fill

Oh baby please, every night


The only thing I really need To keep me satisfied
You really gotta love your girl
You really gotta love your girl, don't let go
Show her how much you care
You really gotta love your girl
You never gonna lose this girl
Say that it's true, she is your world
You really gotta love your girl
You really gotta love your girl
Don't let go
Show her how much you care
You really gotta love your girl
You never gonna lose this girl
Say that it's true, she is your world
Oh baby please, every night
The only thing I really need
To keep me satisfied
You really gotta love your girl

You don't act the same
And your eyes have changed
I don't want to hear the words you say
I don't want to know the pain

And I see your lips move
But I can't hear the sound
So I turn my head away
As my heart drops to the ground

I would die for you, I would live for you
I would fight for the right, just to give to you
You can set me free but you'll come back to me
Didn't We Almost win, Didn't We Almost win It All

Time seems to heal wounds
Well that's what they say
But it doesn't matter now 'Cause I never felt that way
And I try to see right through you
But It's all in vain
Like a locomotive blinded by the rain
I could swear that you loved me just the other way
I still remember how you used to say

I would die for you, I would live for you
I would fight for the right, just to give to you
You can set me free but you'll come back to me
Didn't We Almost win, Didn't We Almost win It All

I could swear that you loved me just the other way
I still remember how you used to say
I would die for you, I would live for you
I would fight for the right, just to give to you
You can set me free but you'll come back to me
Didn't We Almost win, Didn't We Almost win It All
You can set me free but you'll come back to me
Didn't We Almost win, Didn't We Almost win It All

(Kevin Wells/Andre Pessis)

We're all a mystery in this world in which we live
And there's no guarantee that we'll get back what we give
We take a chance on love a dream that lasts forever
We're only flesh and blood
Throwing coins in a wishing well

Only time will tell if a love is true
Only time will tell what a heart is gonna do
Only time will tell who's the dreamer, who's the fool
Only time will tell

We tie the ties that bind with a simple act of faith
No matter how we try we're in the hands of fate
We take the gift of life and give it to each other
We promise you and I a promise that we'll try to keep



Only time will tell if a love is true
Only time will tell what a heart is gonna do
Only time will tell who's the dreamer, who's the fool
Only time will tell

We take the gift of life and give it to each other
We promise you and I a promise that we'll try to keep

Only time will tell if a love is true
Only time will tell what a heart is gonna do
Only time will tell who's the dreamer, who's the fool
Only time will tell

(Laura Branigan/Kevin Wells)

Time, time gets the best of me
Moving on endlessly, when we're apart
Faith, faith is the strength I need
Faith is the inner key, the key to the heart

Just a face in the crowd
Is all that it takes for the memory
Of that pale cool night, with you by my side
When all that I wanted was you

Wherever we run, whatever we choose
Whether we win or if we lose
Until the sun no longer shines
I'll wait for you

Wherever we run, whatever we choose
Whether or not our dreams come true
Until we reach the end of time
I'll wait for you

You, you are my fantasy
You are my destiny like the sea to the shore
Faith, faith is the strength I need
Faith is the inner key, the key to the heart

Just a face in the crowd
Is all that it takes for the memory
Of that pale cool night, with you by my side
When all that I wanted was you

Wherever we run, whatever we choose
Whether we win or if we lose
Until the sun no longer shines
I'll wait for you

Wherever we run, whatever we choose
Whether or not our dreams come true
Until we reach the end of time
I'll wait for you

I, I close my eyes and see
Your body next to me your lips on mine

Wherever we run, whatever we choose
Whether we win or if we lose
Until the sun no longer shines
I'll wait for you

There's nothing special
About two women holding hands
The shade comes after that
When they do it under the tablecloth


Then, alone and with nothing to lose,
The hands go first, and then the rest of the skin.

A love to hide
Though naked, there's nowhere to hide it.
They disguise it as friendship
When they go out walking round the city

One of them thinks that that's not right
The other one says: " Who cares?".
And other's opinions don't count.

Who stops doves flying?
Flying over the ground
Woman on woman.

It's not up to me
To throw at them the first stone
If I'm in the wrong circumstance,
And I found them lip to lip in a room
I wouldn't even dare to cough
If I don't like it, I know what I've got to do.
With my stones they build their own wall.

Who stops doves flying?
Flying over the ground
Woman on woman.

One of them thinks that that's not right
The other one says: " Who cares?".
And other's opinion doesn't count.

One of them thinks that that's not right
The other one says: " Who cares?".
And other's opinion doesn't count.


You're living a lie, you're wasting your time
Caught in a dream, you're living a lie
You're living a lie, you're wasting your time
Caught in a dream, you're living a lie

You keep wonderin' where she's goin'
Just to find where she's been
Could it be she no longer loves you?
Could it be it's the end?

You're living a lie, you're wasting your time
Caught in a dream, I said you're living a lie
You're living a lie, you're wasting your time
Caught in a dream, you're living a lie

Somebody better help this boy
He's chasing rainbows in the sky
But there's a fool in every boy
The things you never question why

You're living a lie, you're wasting your time
Caught in a dream, you're living a lie
You're living a lie, you're wasting your time
Caught in a dream, I said you're living a lie

You're living a lie, you're wasting your time
Caught in a dream, ah, you're living a lie
You're living a lie, you're wasting your time
Caught in a dream, you're living a lie

You're living a lie, you're wasting your time ... [fade out]

(Laura Branigan/Billy Branigan)

I don't lose my breath
When I hear a step on the stairway
And my heart doesn't stop
When I hear a knock at my door
I say to myself it's just some old friend of mine
I don't think for a moment, boy
That you've changed your mind

I'm over you
I'm finally over you
Just like you've gotten over me
Just like you did so easily

I'm over you
This time I'm over you
I really don't care what you do
Just don't tell yourself
I'm still in love with you

Things have fallen in place
And there's hardly a trace of you anywhere
I've got too much to do
To be thinking of you coming home
And I don't expect that your turn will come to cry
'Cause after all, baby
It was you who said goodbye



I'm over you
This time I'm really over you
Just like you've gotten over me
Just like you did so easily

I'm over you
This time I'm really over you
I really don't care what you do
Just don't tell yourself
I'm still in love with you

I'm over you
This time I'm really over you
I don't give a damn what you do
Just don't tell yourself
I'm still in love with you

This time I'm over you
I swear I'm really over you
I really don't care what you do
Just don't tell yourself
I'm still in love with you

Mangwane, Mpulele

Le ga di le peli, le ga di le tharo

goodbye.

What's going on
Down on the planet
What's going on
Inside your pretty head
What's life without a Mercedes
And the need to feel adrenaline rush

Is it better than
Moonlight on water
Is it better than
Sex on the beach
Think about us riding wild horses
Think about us
it's not out of reach

I'm here for you
No matter where you go
No matter what you do
I'm here for you
When there's a lonely night who can you hold on to
I'm here for you
Want you in my arms uncomplicated
I am for you I am

Who's gonna be
The competition
Who's the next in line
For promotion baby
Everyday the real world is fading
Spinning out on the wheel of fortune but

Is it better than
Moonlight on water
Is it better than
Sex on the beach
Think about us riding wild horses
Think about us
it's not out of reach babe

I'm here for you
No matter where you go
No matter what you do
I'm here for you
When there's a lonely night who can you hold on to
I'm here for you
Want you in my arms uncomplicated
I am for you I am

You've been working so hard, don't you know it baby
You don't understand what I want from you
Instead of dreamin 'bout all that money
We got mich simpler things to do
Moonlight on water
Sex on the beach
Think about us riding wild horses
Think about us
It's not out of reach

I'm here for you
No matter where you go
No matter what you do
I'm here for you
When there's a lonely night who can you hold on to
I'm here for you
Want you in my arms uncomplicated
I am for you I am
But don't you worry 'bout the wrong things

Drawn like a moth to a flame
I've been comsumed by the fire
I've only got myself to blame
I soulda known better
Than givin to desire

And with an arrow through my heart
I watch your image fall apart
True colors bliding me
I don't like what I see

You know you got a bad attitude
I wanna love you but you're dumb animal
Raw like diamond in the rough
I think you're pretty but you're too tough

You see the glass half empty
I see the glasse half filled
You try to tell me it's alright
You say you're gonna change you're ways
OOh baby you know you never will

You know you got a bad attitude
I wanna love you but you're dumb animal
Raw like diamond in the rough
I think you're pretty but you're too tough
I don't need your bad attitude
It's hard to love you when you're too wild animal
Raw like the diamond in the rough
I've had my fill babe enough is enough

And with an arrow through my heart
I watch your image fall apart
True colors bliding me
I'm not impressed with what I see

You know you got a bad attitude
I wanna love you but you're dumb animal
Raw like diamond in the rough
I think you're pretty but you're too tough
Get out of here with you bad attitude
I wanna love you but you're too wild animal
Raw you're like a diamond in the rough
You could be pretty but you're too tough

I don't need, bad attitude
I wanna love you, I wanna love you
Raw like a diamond in the rough
I've had my fill babe enough is enough

Oh, if I could touch you,
It'd be a once in a lifetime dream come true,
And oh, if I could have you,
just one night,
just one time,
But I know I'll never get the chance,
I'll never get a second glance,

Never in a million years,
Never in a thousand tears,
If I could ever hold you,
I'd never let go,
Never in a million years.

How I need you,
If you could only see inside my heart,
And oh, to be near you,
close enough, to reach and touch,
well I've thought it over in my mind,
If I could walk across the bridge of time,

Never in a million years,
Never in a thousand tears,
If I could ever hold you
I'd never let go,
Never in a million years.

But I know, I'll never, never, never get the chance,
I'll never get a second glance,

Never, in a million years,
never in a thousand tears,
If I could ever hold you,
I'd never let you go,
never.

Never in a million years,
Never in a thousand tears,
If I could ever hold you,
I'd never let go,
Never in a million years!

(Steve Kipner/Clif Magness)

I confess I love you
But you don't believe me
You're on the rebound
And you don't want to get hurt again
I know you are fallin' But you don't want to let me know
You think it's safer not to let it show

You got your feelings locked away
For your protection
You think you keep them inside
Oh it's so obvious there's something
Here that can't be denied

You're building up a smoke screen
Trying to keep me in the dark
Trying to camouflage the way you feel
You're sending out a smoke screen
Acting like you're not in love
Making out it's no big deal
I know it
You know it
What are you afraid of

You're keeping a distance
For the sake of apppearances
Don't want to look like
You are ruled by your emotions
Surrender to your heart
Lift the veil that's keeping us apart

You're building up a smoke screen
Trying to keep me in the dark
Trying to camouflage the way you feel
You're sending out a smoke screen
Acting like you're not in love
Making out it's no big deal
I know it
You know it
Say the words you need to say
I know it
You know it
Blow the smoke away
I know it
You know it
Step out from behind the cloud
I know you love me just say it out loud

You got your feelings locked away
For your protection
You think you keep them inside
Oh it's so obvious there's something
Here that can't be denied

Driving through the city
As I look through the window
Wonderin what it's like to be sleepin on the outside
Watch me take a picture of the place that I grew up in
Sorry mister, thought you look like someons I remember
Someone I remember

Look at him still walking
Like he knows somebody's watchin
If I try to talk to him I wonder if he'll know me
C'mon say "Hey baby" won't you take a ride in my car
Maybe you can show me how we lost what we believe in

Just let me stay here
I'm running from I don't know
Just let me stay here the night
I won't hurt you
Don't stop me
Just let me stay a while
Just let me stay here for life

I know it's been a while and the years have been unfaithful
Is there nothing left of me that even looks familiar
Everything that was easy when we thought we had the answer
Why you lookin' at me like I'm from another planet

Just let me stay here
I'm running from I don't know
Just let me stay here the night
I won't hurt you
Don't stop me
Just let me stay a while
Just let me stay here for life

Oooo eee oh
My lo say no
May you can let me in

Blow horns sure sound pretty
Violins keep movin' to the nitty gritty
When you hear the scratch of the guitars scratchin'
Then you'll know that rhythm carries all the action, woah

Turn the beat around, love to hear the percussion
Turn it upside down, love to hear the percussion
Love to hear it

Flute player play your flute 'cause
I know you want to get your thing off
But you see I've made up my mind about it
It's got to be the rhythm, no doubt about it, woah

And when the guitar player starts playing
That syncopated rhythm with the scratch, scratch, scratch
Makes you wanna move your body, yeah, yeah, yeah
And when the drums starts beating that beat
Beating out that beat with the syncopated rhythm
And the (rat, tat, tat, tat....) of the drum, hey

Turn the beat around, turn it upside down
(Love to hear the percussion)
Turn it upside down, turn it all around
(Love to hear the percussion)
Love to hear it, love to hear it
Love to hear it, love to hear it

(Turn the beat around)
Turn the beat around, turn it around
(Love to hear the percussion) Let me hear it
(Turn it upside down) Around and 'round and 'round
(Love to hear the percussion)
(Love to hear it)

(Turn the beat around)
Turn the beat around, turn it around
(Love to hear the percussion)

(Turn it upside down)
Turn it upside down, turn it around and 'round and 'round....
(Love to hear the percussion)
Love to hear it, love to hear it, love to hear it

Talkin' 'bout the beat when you move your feet
(Turn the beat around) When you move your feet
Talkin' 'bout the beat when you move your feet
(Turn in upside down) Turn the beat around
Turn it upside down, turn the beat around
Turn it upside down (turn the beat around)
(Turn in upside down)
(Turn the beat around)

(Bruce Roberts/Andy Goldmark)

Somewhere tonight become alive
Two hearts at night
We're one of a kind
Here we are undivided by anything
Just you and I
We've come so far no one else could ever
Steal away what we confide
Who wants to know?

We stick together we're never apart
Everybody knows who we are
Because we are one
We do it in unison

The look in your eye
The flash of your smile
Never too shy
Playin' ever so wild
Baby here we are I'm relying on
No one else
But you and I
We've come so far
No one else could ever steal away what we confide
Who wants to know?

We stick together we're never apart
Everybody knows who we are
Because we are one We do it in unison
We've come together and stronger we are
Just when the world tries to tear us apart
We go on as one We do it in unison

You and me
As one
We stay together
We stay together
Unison

Baby here we are undivided by
Anything just you and I
We've come so far
No one else could ever steal away what we confide
Who wants to know?

We stick together We stick together We stick together we're never apart
Everybody knows who we are
Because we are one We do it in unison

We stick together we're never apart
Everybody knows who we are
Because we are one
We do it in unison
We've come together and stronger we are
Just when the world can tear us apart
We go on as one
We do it in unison
[Fade out]

(Bonnie Karlyle/Pat Robinson)

You know we've all been hurt before
And it's so hard to trust again
We want to believe in that security
Someone there til the end

It's time you know the way I feel
You know I've had my share of pain
But what we have is now
We chance it anyhow
And hope the feeling stays the same

No promise, no guarantee
But here's my heart unconditionally
I'll give to you my honesty, always, darling
No promise, no guarantee
But I'll share my world with you openly
Stand by you faithfully
I'll be there darling

Oh those memories fade with time
And we soon forget the tears
You've survived the hurt
You made it through the worst
What I'm saying is sincere

Now, it's a changing world out there
Don't we know it baby
And it's turning way too fast
I'll be by your side, be it day or night
And what will be will be

(Stephen Kipner/Clif Magness)

All the girls are runnin' after you
And I've got to admit that it includes me too
All the girls are puttin' on a show
We all try to catch your eye
But you don't want to know

I've got to be smart
Really got to use my head
I'm gonna pretend I'm not interested

I got a secret weapon
I'm runnin' away
To to make you fall in love with me
I can create the illusion
I'll turn you around
With reverse psychology
Chase me till I catch you...

It really gets you when you are ignored
So I'll make myself a territory unexplored
Now it's my turn to play hard to get
If you try to phone I won't be home
So you don't suspect

I got a secret weapon
I'm runnin' away
To to make you fall in love with me
I can create the illusion
I'll turn you around
With reverse psychology

My heart's telling me what to do
Let you chase me till I catch you

I've got to be smart
Really got to use my head
I'm gonna pretend I'm not interested

Here in the night
There's a perfume in the air
And you can almost smell the danger
Pressed in a crowd
You can feel the heat flow
In the touch of every stranger
We're out on the town
And it's action that we're after
Keep fannin' the flame just a little faster

It's gonna be a hot night
We're gonna have a hot night tonight
It's gonna be a hot night
We won't get no sleep tonight
Too hot, it's too hot

The need in your eyes
Hits me to the heart
With a shot of stimulation
Come on with me
In a moment I will see such a burnin' fascination

No stopping it now
We got to stay in motion
We're two-footed fire two-footed emotion

It's gonna be a hot night
We're gonna have a hot night tonight
It's gonna be a hot night
We won't get no sleep tonight
Too hot, it's too hot (repeat)

No stopping it now
We got to stay in motion
We're two-footed fire two-footed emotion

It's gonna be a hot night
We're gonna have a hot night tonight
It's gonna be a hot night
We won't get no sleep tonight
Too hot, it's too hot... [Fade out]

Gloria, you're always on the run now
Running after somebody, you gotta get him somehow
I think you've got to slow down before you start to blow it
I think you're headed for a breakdown, so be careful not to show it

You really don't remember, was it something that he said?
Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?
Gloria, don't you think you're fallin'?
If everybody wants you, why isn't anybody callin'?
You don't have to answer
Leave them hangin' on the line, oh-oh-oh, calling Gloria
Gloria (Gloria), I think they got your number (Gloria)
I think they got the alias (Gloria) that you've been living under (Gloria)
But you really don't remember, was it something that they said?
Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?

A-ha-ha, a-ha-ha, Gloria, how's it gonna go down?
Will you meet him on the main line, or will you catch him on the rebound?
Will you marry for the money, take a lover in the afternoon?
Feel your innocence slipping away, don't believe it's comin' back soon

And you really don't remember, was it something that he said?
Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?
Gloria, don't you think you're fallin'?
If everybody wants you, why isn't anybody callin'?
You don't have to answer
Leave them hangin' on the line, oh-oh-oh, calling Gloria
Gloria (Gloria), I think they got your number (Gloria)
I think they got the alias (Gloria) that you've been living under (Gloria)
But you really don't remember, was it something that they said?
Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?

I still remember how much I used to need you
Tried so hard to please you but you didn't need me
You knew I loved you knew I always would be there
You just did what you wanted you didn't care

All the cards were held by you
There was nothin' I could do
All those nights I sat alone starin' at the telephone
Wonderin' were you ever comin' home

Solitaire, it got so lonely
Solitaire, no one to hold me
Where were you when I played solitaire?
It took some time but I stopped thinkin' about you

Started livin' without you now look who's back here
You've had a change of heart, well, mine just couldn't wait, no no
You found out you loved me just a little too late
Once the cards were held by you

Now there's nothin' you can do
All those nights you sit alone starin' at the telephone
Wonderin' if I'm ever comin' home

Solitaire, see what it's like now
Solitaire, to cry all night now
Solitaire, see how it feels to play
Solitaire, it gets so lonely
Solitaire, you want to hold me

Don't wait up, 'cause babe, I won't be there
Solitaire, solitaire, solitaire
Solitaire, see what it's like now
Solitaire, to cry all night now
Solitaire, see how it feels to play
Solitaire, it gets so lonely
Solitaire, you want to hold me
Don't wait up, 'cause babe, I won't be there

Check it out, Joe

I'll tell you a secret if you know where to keep it
And you promise not to tell
Got a tale or two about a girl
That you could have sworn you knew so well
It was years ago, though it sounds like yesterday
You came on strong and she gave it all away

He had an angel's face, defied his grace, and an ace sittin' up his sleeve
But never mind, 'cos love is blind, and she needed to believe
His touch could feel, he held her safe from harm
If thoughts could kill, she'd have died there in his arms

Deep in the dark, ooh-oh-oh
The thunder in her heart, ooh-oh-oh
He told her every single lie
He swore he'd never told anyone before

Check it out, Joe

Now you wake up in the dead of night, and reach out to touch her hair
But the bed is empty, turn on the light, and she's not even there
Then a note she wrote, you read that thing and weep
'cos if you love someone, and never know what runs so deep

Deep in the dark, ooh-oh-oh
The thunder in her heart, ooh-oh-oh
She told you every single lie
She swore she'd never heard before
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

Deep in the dark, ooh-oh-oh
The thunder in her heart, ooh-oh-oh
She told you every single lie
She swore she'd never heard before
Two, three, four

Check it out, Joe

Deep in the dark, ooh-oh-oh
The thunder in her heart, ooh-oh-oh
She told you every single lie
She swore she'd never heard before
Two, three, four

Deep in the dark, ooh-oh-oh
The thunder in her heart, ooh-oh-oh
She told you every single lie
She swore she'd never told anyone before

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

Deep in the dark, ooh-oh-oh
The thunder in her heart, ooh-oh-oh
She told you every single lie
She swore she'd never heard before

I've been waiting all of my life
For you, stranger, you are a light
The light that shines in me
The one who holds the key to my love forever

Close enough
We're close enough to fall in love
We're close enough
Close enough to make it last
Now there's no turning back
We'll do it together
We're close enough

Open arms reach out to my soul
Hold me closer, in from the cold
And now the time has come
To keep the love we found here forever

Close enough
We're close enough to fall in love
We're close enough
Close enough to make it last
Now there's no turning back
We'll do it together

And now, now the time has come
To keep the love we found just close enough
We're close enough to fall in love
We're close enough
Close enough to make it last
Now there's no turning back
We'll do it together

Close enough
We're close enough to fall in love
We're close enough
Close enough to make it last
Now there's no turning back
We do it together

We're close enough to fall in love
We're close enough
Close enough to make it last
Now there's no turning back
We'll do it together

Close enough
We're close enough to fall in love
We're close enough

Maybe I'm a fool, one day we'll know
Maybe I'm a fool, only time can show
But now these lonely nights are killin' me
I'm so far away from reality
The pain grows stronger
I can't hold on much longer
It hurts when I think of how I had your sweet love
And still I set you free

Lucky, I said I hope you try and understand
Lucky, guess it's not like we planned
Lucky, you know I really really love you so
But Lucky, I still have to go

I wish that you could see the tears on my face
Painful memories of a love I can't replace
I'm sailin' in the past, and I sinkin' fast
You can hear my S.O.S. cryin' out for tenderness
Though yesterday's dead and gone
Your magic still lingers on
It hurts when I think of how I had your sweet love
And how I set you free

Lucky, I said I hope you try and understand
Lucky, I guess it's not like we planned, oh no no
Oh Lucky, you know I really really love you so
But Lucky, I still have to go

Oh Lucky, I said I hope you try and understand

Oh Lucky, you know I really really love you so

Mama's got a squeeze box she wears on her chest
When daddy comes home, he never gets no rest
'cos she's playin' all night, and the music's alright
Mama's got a squeeze box, and daddy never sleeps at night

Well, the kids don't eat, and the dog can't sleep
There's no escape from the music in the whole damn street
'cos she's playin' all night, and the music's alright
Mama's got a squeeze box, and daddy never sleeps at night

She goes in and out, and in and out
And in and out, and in and out
She's playin' all night, and the music's alright
Mama's got a squeeze box, and daddy never sleeps at night

She goes "Squeeze me, come on and squeeze me
Come on and tease me like you do, I'm so in love with you"
Mama's got a squeeze box, and daddy never sleeps at night

She goes in and out, and in and out
And in and out, and in and out, and in and out
She's playin' all night, and the music's alright
Mama's got a squeeze box, and daddy never sleeps at night, oh

You know that mama's got a squeeze box, and daddy never sleeps at night
Oh, oh, mama's got a squeeze box, and daddy never sleeps at night
Oh, oh-oh

I could hardly believe it when I heard the news today
I had to come and get it straight from you
They said you were leaving, someone swept your heart away
From the look upon your face I see it's true
So tell me all about it, tell me 'bout the plans you're makin'
Then tell me one thing more before I go

Tell me how am I supposed to live without you
Now that I've been lovin' you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
And how am I supposed to carry on
When all that I've been livin' for is gone

Didn't come here for cryin', didn't come here to break down
It's just a dream of mine is comin' to an end
How can I blame you when I built my world around
The hope that one day we'd be so much more than friends
And I don't wanna know the price I'm gonna pay for dreamin'
I need you know, it's more than I can take

Tell me how am I supposed to live without you
Now that I've been lovin' you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
And how am I supposed to carry on
When all that I've been livin' for is gone

And I don't wanna know the price I'm gonna pay for dreamin'
Now that your dream has come true

Tell me how am I supposed to live without you
Now that I've been loving you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
And how am I supposed to carry on
All that I've been livin' for is gone

Without you, after I've been lovin' you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
And how am I supposed to carry on
When all that I've been

Secret eyes follow you around the room
They try to hide their glances in the darkness
How could there be anyone as beautiful as you?
Who couldn't help but want you?

I'm not the only one who wants to get next to you
Bet I'm not the only one who's ever told you
How much they wanted to be your only one
They all wanted you, wanted to be holding you now
Holding you, touching you, feeling you

Will it be me at the end of the night?
Will I be, will I be the lucky one who wins you?
Leavin' the place just to dream of your embrace
Who wouldn't want to be in my place?

I'm not the only one who wants to get next to you
Bet I'm not the only one who's ever told you
How much they wanted to be your only one
They all wanted you, you'll break every heart before the night is through
Every heart but the one that goes with you

There you are, moving across the floor
Knowing that all those arms are waiting and wanting
Longing to reach for you
You don't care, you could have anyone you choose

I'm not the (I'm not the) only one who wants to get next to you
Bet I'm not the only one who's ever told you
How much they wanted to be your only one
They all wanted you, wanted to be holding you now
Holding you, touching you, feeling you

I wanna get next to you
Bet I'm not the only one who's ever told you
How much they wanted to be your only one
They all wanted you ... [fade out

Mama, remember how you warned me that he would only hurt me?
Remember how I didn't listen then, wasn't listening?
Mama, you said I shouldn't see him
Said I didn't need him
Said "Don't fall, that guy is gonna take your heart
Just to break your heart"
Told me from the start he would break my heart

And I guess I was a bad girl
But you just never understood
How the lovin' of that bad boy
Made your bad girl feel so good
I'd sneak out my window, we'd meet in the night
Deep in the darkness, he knew how to love me so right

Mama, ooh, he was a wild one
And, ooh, I was a child once
But I will never be a child again after lovin' him
Oh, not after lovin' him

Mama, I never knew a boy's touch could ever teach me so much
All those nights you didn't understand I was in good hands
Mama, if I would have listened
Ooh, the kissin' I'd be missin'!
I tell you, you were wrong as you could be
He's still here with me
Sneakin' out my window, we meet in the night
Deep in the darkness, he knows how to love me so right

Mama, ooh, that boy's touch, need it so much
Mama, ooh, that wild one, need to feel him
Mama, oh, that bad boy, he gives me such joy
Mama, I'm such a bad girl, he gives me such joy
Mama, ... [fade out

If you see me trembling 'cos you're near
Please come closer, it's not you I fear
Find me, touch me, never let me go
Darlin', I'm so cold, hold me

If you hear me cryin' in my sleep
Kiss me gently, hold me while I weep
Find me, touch me, never let me go
Find me, reach me, feel what I can't show
Darlin', I'm so cold, hold me

Because you're near me now
I'm so much braver now
No longer lost somehow with you with me

If you feel me pushin' you away
That's me simply beggin' you to stay
Find me, touch me, never let me go
Find me, reach me, feel what I can't show
Find me, love me, God I love you so
Darlin', I'm so cold, hold me

Looking to find somebody new
That's what I've got in mind to do
Taking a chance, no one is there
People afraid to share

Don't show your love
Say no to love
Don't show your love to me
Take back your love
Say no to love
Don't show your love to me

Loneliness lives out in the world
People afraid to give
Better off free, out on your own
Living your life alone

Don't show your love
Say no to love
Don't show your love to me
Oh, take back your love
Say no to love
Don't show your love to me

Oh, don't show your love
Say no to love
Don't show your love to me
No, no, take back your love
Say no to love
Don't show your love to me

Oh, oh, oh, don't show your love
Say no to love
Don't show your love to me
Oh, oh, take back your love
Say no to love
Don't show your love to me

Oh, don't show your love
Say no to love ... [fade out

I wish I knew what you were thinkin'
Sometimes with you it's hard to tell
You lay beside me without speakin'
Words are hard to find, better left behind

You pull me close as if to answer
The question runnin' through my head
If words could say it any better:
Does it feel good, do you feel like stayin' all night with me?
Does it feel good, do you feel like stayin' all night with me?
Does it feel good? If it feels right, stay all night

We'll wake up early in the mornin'
Or never go to sleep at all
So happy just to be together
Does it feel good, do you feel like stayin' all night with me?
Does it feel good, do you feel like stayin' all night with me?
If it feels good, if it feels right, stay all night

It's a long night, there'll be time for playin'
Never felt so right just to hear you sayin'
That it's all right, and you feel like stayin' all night with me
Does it feel good, do you feel like stayin' all night with me?
Does it feel good, does it feel right?
Why don't you stay all night with me?
Does it feel good, do you feel like stayin' all night with me?
Does it feel good, does it feel right?
Why don't you stay all night with me?
Does it feel good, do you feel like stayin' all night with me?
Does it feel ... [fade out]

I try to be all of the things you say I'm not
You never fail to remind me of what I haven't got
I get so tired of pleasin' you
You never give me a reason to
If you tell me you're leavin', you know what I'll say

Where would I be, how could I live?
Where would I go, and what would I give?
What can I say, how do I stand?
Where do I fall if there's no more lovin' you baby?

Sometimes it's harder stickin' around than seein' you go
And the way that you laugh about it is your way of lettin' me know
You couldn't care less if I was gone
Still I keep on hangin' on
'cos if you tell me you're leavin', you know what I'll say

Where would I be, how could I live?
Where would I go, and what would I give?
What can I say, how do I stand?
Where do I fall if there's no more lovin' you baby?

You've been callin' and there's no answer
Now you're wondering why
How'd you get in this situation?
Now it's your turn to cry

You're living a lie, you're wasting your time
Caught in a dream, you're living a lie
You're living a lie, you're wasting your time
Caught in a dream, you're living a lie

You keep wonderin' where she's goin'
Just to find where she's been
Could it be she no longer loves you?
Could it be it's the end?

You're living a lie, you're wasting your time
Caught in a dream, I said you're living a lie
You're living a lie, you're wasting your time
Caught in a dream, you're living a lie

Somebody better help this boy
He's chasing rainbows in the sky
But there's a fool in every boy
The things you never question why

You're living a lie, you're wasting your time
Caught in a dream, you're living a lie
You're living a lie, you're wasting your time
Caught in a dream, I said you're living a lie

You're living a lie, you're wasting your time

If you loved me, I'm sure that you would know
Wouldn't be so easy for you to let me go
If you loved me, you'd put away your pride
And put some love inside, and hold it there forever

If you loved me, if you ever did before
You could find those feelings, and feel them all once more
If you loved me, that love would pull us through
You'd do all you could do to keep that love together

You had me walkin' on a rainbow that vanished at my feet
Now that it's over, I see the truth my heart refused to see

If you loved me the way I love you from the start
Wouldn't be so easy for you to break my heart
If you loved me, you'd give it one more try
You wouldn't let it die, you'd hold me close forever

If you loved me
If you loved me
If you loved me like I love you

I'm caught in a crossfire, with nowhere to run
I'm keepin' my head down, 'cos I've got only one
I'm up on a high wire, with nothin' but air
I'm feelin' so nervous, with so many places to go
But I'm goin' nowhere

I'm ridin' a circle, it's twistin' my head
I feel like I'm moving, but my feet feel like lead
I'm drowning in quicksand, it's pullin' me down
I feel so abandoned, when I, I reach for the sky
I still can't get off the ground

Please stay, go away
Can't you see darling that you're drivin' me crazy?
Please stay, go away
Can't you see you're drivin' me crazy?

I'm deep in a forest, I can't find a tree
I'm chained to your heart, but I can't find the key
So show me the way, oh, I'm too blind to see
My mind's leaning left, while my heart tells me it's right
But it seems wrong to me

Please stay, go away
Can't you see darling that you're drivin' me crazy?
Please stay, go away
Can't you see you're drivin' me crazy?

So you want me to feel, then you turn like a wheel
Don't you know that I love ya?
Do I have to explain that I'm livin' your pain?
I can't take it again, but I don't want it to end

So please stay, go away
Can't you see darling that you're drivin' me crazy?
Please stay, go away
Can't you see you're drivin' me crazy?

Please stay, go away
Can't you see darling that you're drivin' me crazy?
Please stay, go away
Can't you see you're drivin' me crazy?

Please stay, go away
Can't you see darling you're really drivin' me crazy?
Please stay, go away
Can't you see you're drivin' me crazy?

Please stay, go away
Can't you see darling that you're drivin' me crazy?
Please stay, go away

I wish we could be alone
So all of the world couldn't see
How much we have together
And how much you mean to me

I wish we could put out the flame
But oh, sweet baby, tell me would it be right?
I take the subway and you take the train
I got a husband and you got a wife
I wish we could love and then not always have to pretend
I wish we could be alone, all alone
I wish we could be alone, all alone

I know it's not simple, but I know that it's strong
And I know it will never be easy, but I know it ain't wrong
I wish it could always be the way it is when you're kissin' me
I wish we could be alone, all alone
I wish we could be alone, all alone

And so we'll go on and on, hidin' out the way that we do
Keepin' it from all of our friends, there ain't a-nothin' between us two
I wish we could hang about, and not worry who's givin' in or out
I wish we could be alone, all alone
I wish we could be alone, all alone
I wish we could be alone, all alone

Was there light on the water when I fell in and drowned?
Did anyone see my body go down?
Did he call out "Someone help, she can't swim!"?
Or did he just laugh when I slipped and fell in?

I went down without a trace
And all I could see was a smile on his face
I fell in, was I pushed in the fog?
When I went down, I went down like a rock

Did anyone jump in, or climb down the rungs
To catch me and save me, and pump out my lungs?
I saw nobody cry on board, nobody offered a prayer
Did anyone notice, doesn't anyone care?

I went down without a trace
And all I could see was a smile on his face
I fell in, was I pushed in the fog?
When I went down, I went down like a rock

Was there light on the water when I fell in and drowned?
Did anyone see my body go down?
Did he call out "Someone help, she can't swim!"?
Or did he just laugh when I slipped and fell in?

I went down without a trace
And all I could see was a smile on his face
I fell in, was I pushed in the fog?
When I went down, I went down like a rock

I went down without a trace
And all I could see was a smile on his face
I fell in, was I pushed in the fog?
When I went down, I went down like a rock

Maybe I love you, maybe I don't
Maybe I'll need you, and maybe, baby, I won't
I guess I don't take the time to let you know what's on my mind
Maybe I've been blind

Maybe I'm crazy, maybe I'm sane
Maybe I need to go away, start over again
But if I went away, I'd be afraid I should have stayed
Maybe I'm afraid that maybe I love you

And believe me when I tell you
It's because of all the things you say and do
That help me make it through
I need you
But when I try to say goodbye, I realise I won't know what to do
If I don't have you

Maybe I love you, baby I do
I guess I loved you the first time I saw you
And when I don't take the time to let you know what's on my mind
I know that I'm too damn blind, but baby I love you

Maybe I love you, maybe I don't
Maybe I'll need you, and maybe, baby, I won't
I guess I don't take the time to let you know what's on my mind
Maybe I've been blind, but maybe I love you
I love you

My head touches the pillow
Dreams of us come rushin' through
They light the dark like fireflies
Slowly fillin' up the room
Everywhere I look tonight
I can see how I cried

Over love, over you
Over love there was nothing I could do
Over love, over you

I believe in magic
It clouds the mind like sweet perfume
It almost made me crazy
I could've died from the pleasures of me and you
Until the magic drifted away
I never thought I'd say

I'm over love, over you
Over love there was nothing I could do
Over love, over you
And so I'm turnin' on the light
Don't want to lose another night
Over love

Not gonna hurt anymore
Not gonna do what I did before
Not gonna feel like I felt
Till I fall again

I'm over love, over you
Over love there was nothing I could do
Over love, over you
And so I'm turnin' on the light
Don't want to lose another night
Over love

Feel it tonight
Rainin' down as cold as ice
The air that we breathe
Is all we share between us
Wearing the scars
Deep inside our desert hearts
Tell me where did it go
Why did love ever leave us
Now the memories burn in my eyes
As I remember the look of the broken hearted
Never thought I'd be one of their own

We're standing in a shadow forever
Her shadow's in the way of our love
What should have been forgotten
Forever more
The shadow of what was
Now I'm the one who loves you
But I know we can't hide we can't run
From the shadow she casts on the night
The shadow of love

I want to believe everything that I can't see
But the truth always lies somewhere in between us
I can't help what I feel in the night
Thoughts disturbing the sleep of our innocent lives
Will these dreams ever leave us alone

We're standing in the shadow forever
Her shadow's in the way of our love
What should have been forgotten
Forever more
The shadow of what was
Now I'm the one who loves you
But I know we can't hide we can't run
From the shadow she casts on the night
The shadow of love

I want to know I'll always be
All alone with you
I'm the only one
But long before we ever were
You belonged to her
And she still isn't gone...

Now I'm the one who loves you
But I know we can't hide we can't run

We're standing in the shadow forever
Her shadow's in the way of our love
What should have been forgotten
Forever more
The shadow of what was...

(Rosetta Stone/Jan Mullaney)

Everytime I see you
I get a feeling deep inside
I want to be near you
I want to be always by your side
You know my wants, you know my needs
You never turn your back on me
You know I play, you let me stray
You're always there to rescue me

Everytime I see you
Angels calling, stars are falling
I hear sounds of love
When I'm near you
Heavens singing hearts are ringing
I hear sounds of love

Everytime I see you
I feel my secrets falling out
When I'm near you
I lose my defenses, drop my guards
It's been so long, always so wrong
Love was never good to me
I know you care, you're always there
Your love was heaven sent to me

Everytime I see you
Angels calling stars are falling
I hear sounds of love
When I'm near you
Heavens singing hearts are ringing
I hear sounds of love
Everytime I'm near you
My world is changing, fire's raging
I hear sounds of love
I want to be near you
Shadows dancing, voices chanting
I hear sounds of love
You're all I want
You're all I need
You're all I want
You're life to me
You're life to me

(Rick Palombi/Roy Freeland)

Now there's a wind blowin' leaves alone the empty street
Down by the place on the corner
Where we used to meet
Two people to proud to give
Afraid of what the heart demands
Two of a kind
We made up our minds to live
Without the ties that bind

Each to each
No surrender
Out of reach
Where not one tender sound was heard
Not a cry or a whisper
No farewell
Nothing spoken
Silence fell while hearts were broken
No one stirred
Was it love?
Did we ever know the meaning of the word?

Now there's a moon rising in the cold and distant skies
And I can feel it shinin' down like a lover's eyes
Don't know where you are tonight
Or how to tell the things we say
From what we mean
Or why we could never cross the distance in between

Each to each
No surrender
Out of reach
Where not one tender sound was heard
Not a cry or a whisper
No farewell
Nothing spoken
Silence fell while hearts were broken
No one stirred
Was it love?
Did we ever know the meaning of the word?

Don't know where you are tonight
Or how to tell the things we say
From what we mean
Or why we could never cross the distance in between

The whispers in the morning
lovers sleeping tight
is rolling by like thunder now
as i look in your eyes
I hold on to your body
And feel each move you make
Your voice is warm and tender now
A love that I could not for sake
Cause I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I'll do all that I can
Even though there may be times
I seems so far away
Never wonder where I am
Cause I am always by your side
I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I'll do all that I can
We're heading for something
Somewhere I've never been
Sometimes I am frightened
But I'm ready to learn
'About the power of love
The sound of your heart beating
Made it clear so suddenly
the feeling that I can't go on
is so far away
Cause I'm your lady
And you are my man
Sometimes I am frightened
But I'm ready to learn
'bout the power of love
We're heading for something
Somewhere I've never been
Sometimes I am frightened
But I'm ready to learn
'bout the power of love
I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I'll do all that I can
We're heading for something
Somewhere I've never been
Sometimes I am frightened
But I'm ready to learn
'bout the power of love

I gave you everything I had
You broke it up and you made it bad
I'm not the kind who can take it alone
I've got nothing more for you
I want somebody who needs me too
I've given up, boy
I'm chasing my joy
And you can make your own
You're not the only one
Go out and have your fun
'Cos my time will come
You can shatter glass
With your heart of stone
But you won't get far on your own
You keep running hot and blowing cold
And everything you hold
Just falls apart like shattered glass
It really doesn't matter to me
Where you're going and who you see
I know that I can make it this time
It doesn't matter any more
Since you've gone and walked out that door
I made a new start
I found a true heart
I'm gonna make it mine
You're not the only one
Go out and have your fun
'Cos my time will come
You can shatter glass
With your heart of stone
But you won't get far on your own
You keep running hot and blowing cold
And everything you hold
Just falls apart like shattered glass
You can shatter glass
With your heart of stone
But you won't get far on your own
You keep running hot and blowing cold
And everything you hold
Just falls apart like shattered glass

(Mike Stock/Matt Aitken)

I fight the night
To be alone has never frightened me
Behind the light
The shadow of your memory
Oh, who are you to turn the knife
I am not your sacrifice
Who are you when I can get you out of my life?
Bet you didn't know
That I would pack away my things and go
And know it's true
Gonna get along in spite of you
Don't want to hear your alibis
Don't want your part time compromise
Who are you when I can get you out of my life?

Whatever I do wherever I go
I'm never coming back to you
Whatever you do wherever you go
I'm gonna get over you
Whatever I do wherever I go
I'm never coming back to you
Whatever you do wherever you go
I'm gonna get over you

I stand alone
Another victim of your fantasies
I face the world, ooh
I'm searching for my destiny
Oh, who are you to tie me down
When you were not always around
Who are you when I can get you out of my life?

Whatever I do wherever I go
I'm never coming back to you
Whatever you do wherever you go
I'm gonna get over you
Whatever I do wherever I go
I'm never coming back to you
Whatever you do wherever you go
I'm gonna get over you
Over you

Oh, who are you to turn the knife
I am not your sacrifice
Who are you when I can get you out of my life?

Whatever I do wherever I go
I'm never coming back to you
I'm never commin' back babe
Whatever you do wherever you go
I'm gonna get over you
Over you

(Rick Nowels/Ellen Shipley/Billy Steinberg)

I can't tell you no one will ever die from a broken heart
But one thing I know since I've loved you
I know that I'm alive
So why do you keep holding back
Don't run away from what we have
I would never hurt you darling

Can't stop the rain when you hear the thunder
Tonight's the night we're caught up in the flood
Don't you see we were meant for one another
To live and breathe in the spirit of love

Naked alone what would I be if your love
Had never found me
One thing that's real
Is only the trust we give to one another
So touch me or I'll lose mind
We've waited for the longest time
It's too late to stop now

Can't stop the rain when you hear the thunder
Tonight's the night we're caught up in the flood
Don't you see we were meant for one another
To live and breathe in the spirit of love

Common everybody

I say now lets now play a game

I bet you I can make a rhyme,
out of anybody's name

the first letter of the name
I treat it like it wasn't there

but a 'B' or an 'F' or an 'M' will appear

then I say

Bo - add a 'b' and then I say the name
banana fanna and foe
and then I say the name again with an 'f' very plain
then a fee fie and moe
and then I say the name again with an 'm' this time
and there isn't any name that I can't rhyme

Anl!

Anl, Anl,
Bo, Banl
Banna, Fanna, Foe, Fanl
Fee, Fie, Moe, Manl
Anl

but if the first two letters are ever the same,
I drop them both then say the name

like bob,
bob drop the 'b' bo ob

or fred
fred drop the 'f' Foe red

or Mary,
Mary, drop the 'm's Moe Ary
That's the only rule that is contrary

O.K.

now say Bo Bo!
now tony with a B Bony!
then Banna Fanna and Foe Banna Fanna and Foe!
then you say the name again
with an f very plain Fony!
then a fee fie and a mo Fee, Fie, Moe!
then you same the name again
with an m this time Mony!

and there isn't any name you can't rhyme

His body gots me weak (and I can't wait to see)


What I really want is for him to do to me what he wants to (oh)

Touch, touch

You couldn't wait for answers
You just had to try those wings
And all your happy-ever-afters
They didn't mean a thing
So I'm not gonna try at all
To keep you from the flame
Just remember not to call my name

When you cry wolf
Once too often
You cry wolf
No, I won't come knockin'
You cry wolf
I won't hear you anymore

If you start to stumble
If you start to crack
If you're feeling humble
Don't look back

When you cry wolf
Once too often
You cry wolf
No, I won't come knockin'
You cry wolf
I won't hear you anymore

You can try but you can't get me
Into the fire
'Cause I'm all out of sympathy
And, baby, I can't walk this wire

Find yourself somebody new
To catch you when you fall
'Cause I got just one thing to say to you
And, baby, that's all

When you cry wolf
Once too often
You cry wolf
No, I won't come knockin'
You cry wolf
I won't hear you
You cry wolf
Well, once too often
You cry wolf
No, I won't come knockin'
You cry wolf
I won't see you
So you cry wolf
Once too often
Cry wolf
On no, I won't come knockin'
If you cry wolf
I won't see you
'Cause you cried wolf

(Rick Palombi/Mathew Garey)

The days grow old like winters that creep slowly past
And the love grows cold like icicles against the glass
Now everything around me has changed
The magic of your touch remains
And I stand here feeling naked
Like a statue in the rain
A statue in the rain
Statue in the rain
Calling out your name

A photograph, a window to another time
As I watch the past, I feel your body dance to mine
Now everything about you has changed
The phantom only feeds the flame
So I stand here feeling naked
Just like a statue in the rain
A statue in the rain
Statue in the rain
Calling out your name

Now I'm cold from my head to my toes
And I'm wet, I can never forget
How your love made me feel so alive
Thinking of you, my whole world is gray
As I wander through the magic of facing
One more day you're so far away

Now everything around me has changed
The magic of your touch still remains
And I stand here feeling naked
Like a statue in the rain
Just like a statue in the rain
A statue in the rain
Calling out your name
Now I'm cold from my head to my toes
And I'm wet, I can never forget
How your love made me feel so alive
Like a statue in the rain
A statue in the rain
Statue in the rain
Calling out your name

You can break away or you can stay
You choose your life, you're free to fly
Go on and fly
Go on and fly
She had it in her own time
To get away and try to find
Somewhere to go, to run
She saw the world through open eyes
And never let a soul inside
Don't come too close, so close
Baby thinks she's smart, but what about her heart?
Like a wild bird of prey, like a thief in the night
You can take what you want, and you don't think twice
'cos the world's in your hands, you got all you want
And you won't change a thing, you're the lucky one
Oh, the lucky one
Oh, the lucky one
Her soul was strong, her heart was tough
And when she felt she had enough
She tore herself away
Love in the dark is all you see
Get what you want, not what you need
You look the other way
Never letting on to what it's all become
Like a wild bird of prey, like a thief in the night
You can take what you want, and you don't think twice
'cos the world's in your hands, and you've got all you want
And you won't change a thing, you're the lucky one
Oh, the lucky one
Oh, the lucky one
Life is a dream, the lucky one, the lucky one, the lucky one
Oh, life is a dream, the lucky one
Life is a dream, the lucky one, the lucky one
Baby thinks she's smart, but what about her heart?
Like a wild bird of prey, like a thief in the night
You can take what you want, and you don't think twice
'cos the world's in your hands, and you've got all you want
And you won't change a thing, you're the lucky one
Oh, the lucky one
Oh, the lucky one
Oh, the lucky one
Oh, the lucky one

Oh the night
is my world
City light
painted girl
In the day
nothing matters
It's the night
time that flatters
In the night
no control
Through the wall
something's breaking
Wearing white
as you're walkin
Down the street
of my soul
You take my self
you take my self control
You got me livin
only for the night
Before the morning comes
the story's told
You take my self
you take my self control
Another night
another day goes by
I never stop myself to wonder why
You help me to
forget to play my role
You take my self
you take my self control
I I live among the creatures
of the night
I haven't got the will
to try and fight
Against a new tomorrow
so I guess I'll just believe it
That tomorrow never comes
A safe night
I'm living in the forest of my dream
I know the night
is not as it would seem
I must believe in something
so I'll make myself believe it
That this night will never go
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh the night is my world
City light painted girl
In the day nothing matters
It's the night time that flatters
I I live among the creatures
of the night
I haven't got the will
to try and fight
Against a new tomorrow
so I guess I'll just believe it
That tomorrow never knows
A safe night
I'm living in the forest of a dream
I know the night
is not as it would seem
I must believe in something
so I'll make myself believe it
That this night will never go
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You take my self
you take my self control
You take my self
you take my self control
You take my self
you take my self control
You take my self
you take my self control
You take my self
you take my self control
You take my self
you take my self control
You take my self
you take my self control
You take my self
you take my self control

Ti amo, God how I love you so
My heart just won't let go
Day after day I'm still holding on
Even though you're gone

Ti amo, wasn't I good to you?
I did all that I could do
To make you want to be here with me
I thought you loved me

I can't believe you could just turn and leave
You did it so easily
You pulled my world out from under me
Look what you've done to me

How could you end it this way
After the love that we made?
God how I wished you had stayed
Can't you see that I just want you back

Ti amo, I never had a clue that I was losin' you
You never once let me know that you were lettin' me go
Oh, I guess it was there in your eyes
Guess it was there in your sighs
Guess it was there in your lies
I was blind then, couldn't face the end

Ti amo, thought we'd go on and on
Thought we had something strong
You pulled the world out from under me
Look what you've done to me

How could you end it this way
After the love that we made?
God how I wish you had stayed
Can't you see that I just want you back?

Ti amo, God how Love you so
My heart just won't let go
Day after day I'm still holding on
Even though you're gone

Guess it was ther in your eyes
Guess it was there in your sighs
Guess it was there in your lies
I was blind then, couldn't face the end

Ti amo, thought we'd go on and on
Thought we had something strong
You pulled the world out from under me
Look what you've done to me

How could you end this way
After the love that we made?
God how I wished you had stayed
Can't you see that I just want you back?

Ti amo, was'nt I good to you?
Did all that I could do
To make you want to be here with me
I thought you loved me

I can't believe you could just turn and leave
You did it so easily
You pulled my world out from under me
Look what you've done to me

Ti amo, God how I loved you so
My heart just won't let go
Day after day I'm still holding on
Even though you're gone.......(fade out)

(Marie Cain/Warren Hartman)

It's the hour of the night time
When the demons come to call
And the shadows seem to whisper
And I'm wishin' I could crawl inside a dream
That would free me from the pain
But I'm smothered by the silence of a heart gone insane

Oh, heart, are you still beating?
Is there enough of you left to break?
How could he take you and tear you apart?
I never knew somebody would do it
I never knew somebody could do it
Never dreamed anybody would do this to my heart

Now the wine has worked its wonder
And it's makin' me forget
But the memories lie awaiting like an uncollected debt
That must be paid at the fadin' of the stars
By a heart that is already wearing one too many scars

Oh, heart, are you still beating?
Is there enough of you left to break?
How could he take you and tear you apart?
I never knew somebody would do it
Never knew somebody could do it
Never dreamed anybody could do this to my heart
Heart, are you still beating?
Is there enough of you left to break?
How could he take you and tear you apart?
I never knew somebody would do it
I never knew somebody could do it
Never dreamed anybody would do this to my
Heart, are you still beating?
Is there enough of you left to break?
Heart, are you still beating?
Is there enough of you left to break?
Oh, heart, are you still beating ... [fade out]

(Gerry Goffin/Carole King)

Tonight you're mine completely
You gave your love so sweetly
Tonight the light of love is in your eyes
But will you love me tomorrow?

Is this a lasting treasure?
Or just a moment's pleasure?
Can I, can I believe the magic of your sigh?
Will you still love me tomorrow?

Tonight with words unspoken
You say that I'm the only one
But will my heart be broken, baby,
When the night meets the morning sun?

I'd like to know that your love
Is a love I can be sure of
So tell, tell me now, and I won't ask again
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Tell me now, and I won't ask again
Will you still love me?
Will you still love me?
Will you still love me... tomorrow?

(Bernd Dietrich/Gerd Grabowski/Engelbert Simons/Marc Spiro/Diane Warren)

Don't know what you're doin'
But you're doin' somethin' I think I like
Not sure what I'm feelin'
But it feels like somethin' so right
The sound of your sigh
The touch of your skin
Is takin' me places I've never been
I wanna go there again and again

'Cause you give me
Satisfaction
When you're touchin' me
You start a chain reaction deep inside of me
Satisfaction
I just never knew that I could feel this way
Oh babe, I love you

Holdin' you close now
I keep thinkin' of times before
When nothin' was good enough
I was always left wantin' more
You took my world, turned it around
I know you won't be lettin' me down
'Cause baby, you showed me that love could be found
When you gave me

Satisfaction
When you're touchin' me
You start a chain reaction deep inside of me
Satisfaction
I just never knew that I could feel this way
Oh babe, I love you

(Diane Warren & The Doctor)

We have to take our chances we have to keep it down
We have to steal our kisses when nobody's around
We have to hide the tenderness inside
To make love on the sly
You say it's for the better
We have to speak in riddles to cloak the things we say
We have to watch our whispers not to give ourselves away
We have to run in shadows in the dark
We have to stand apart when they see us together

So we're livin' like silent partners
Sneakin' like thieves in the night
Can't let it show, gotta keep it low, so no one knows
We're silent partners
Never come to the light

It'll never be right whatever we do
You need me too much and I'm just not givin' up on you
We have to keep the secret burnin' on our lips
We'd both be hurting someone if they caught us here like this
We have to bear this burden that we share
Knowin' our affair just can't go on forever

And we're livin' like silent partners
Sneakin' like thieves in the night
Can't let it show, gotta keep it low, so no one knows
We're silent partners
Never come to the light

It'll never be right whatever we do
You need me too much and I'm just not givin' up on you
Silent partners
I can't let it show, we gotta keep it low, so no one knows
We're silent partners
Are we ever gonna come to the light?
It'll never be right, whatever we do
You need me too much and I'm just not givin' up
Silent partners
Sneakin' like thieves in the night
Can't let it show, gotta keep it low, so no one knows
We're silent partners
Are we ever gonna come to the light?
Can't let it show, gotta keep it low, so no one knows
We're silent partners
Sneakin' like thieves in the night

(Diane Warren & The Doctor)

She breathes a sigh
Watching as her life goes by
Caught in the trap of a workingday world
Tired of just being somebody's girl
She's feelin' her frustration buildin' up inside
But tonight
She's gonna give it up
Break the chains and let it out
Tonight
She'll say "I've had enough"
I'm never going back

Breaking out, into the night
Breaking out, she's taking flight
Breaking out, out in the street
Breaking out, gotta break free

He counts the days
Wishin' he could get away
Stuck in the rut of an empty routine
Nowhere to go with his hopes and his dreams
Prepare himself for the moment of his great escape
And tonight
He's gonna make his move
Take a chance and risk it all
Tonight
He's gonna cut it loose
Never looking back

Breaking out, into the night
Breaking out, he's taking flight
Breaking out, out in the street
Breaking out, gotta break free

There's gonna come a time
When you just leave it all behind
Burst out of your prison and just fly away
Tonight
They're gonna make their move
Take a chance and risk it all
Tonight
They're gonna cut it loose
Never looking back

Breaking out, into the night
Breaking out, they're taking flight
Breaking out, out in the street
Breaking out, gotta break free [fade out]

(John Parker/Steve Kipner)

I fancied you for a very long time
You finally got around to makin' your move
But when you picked me up, you looked so very...
I wish we could dispense with the preliminaries
Oh, so much for subtlety
I can't wait for you to get your hands on me

Oh, take me, take me, please
Oh, take me, take me

Don't leave me at the door with a good night kiss
It's guys like you can give a girl a complex
I've never been so in love before
I'm not playin' hard to get, that's for sure
Oh, so much formality
I can't wait for you to put your hands on me

Oh, take me, take me, please
Oh, take me, why don't you take me?
Oh, take me, come on boy
Oh, take me, take me

Oh, don't let me scare you away
It's not like me to come on strong
But love like this just can't be wrong
So I'm gonna make it easy

Oh, take me, take me...
It's the holdin' back makes me want you more
I'm not playin' hard to get
Oh, why don't you take me, boy?
Oh, oh, take me, come on, take me...

I still remember
How much I used to need you
Tried so hard to please you, but you didn't need me
You knew I loved you, knew I always would be there
You just did what you wanted, you didn't care

All the cards were held by you
There was nothin' I could do
All those nights I sat alone, starin' at the telephone
Wonderin' were you ever comin'home

Solitaire, it got so lonely
Solitaire, no one to hold me
Where were you when I played solitaire?

It took some time but I stopped thinkin' about you
Started livin' without you, now look who's back here
You've had a change of heart, well, mine just couldn't wait, no
No you found out you loved me just a little too late

Once the cards were held by you
Now there's nothin' you can do
All those nights you sit alone, starin' at the telephone
wonderin' if I'm evercomin' home

Solitaire,see what it's like now
Solitaire, to cry all night now
Solitaire, see how it feels to bear
Solitaire, it gets so lonely
Solitaire, you wanna hold me
Don't wait up, 'cos babe, I won't be there
Solitaire, Solitaire, Solitaire

Solitaire, see what it's like now
Solitaire, to cry all night now
Solitaire, see how it feels to bear
Solitaire, it gets so lonely
Solitaire, you wanna hold me
Don't wait up, 'cos babe, I won't be there
Solitaire (solitaire,solitaire)

I could hardly believe it when I heard the news today
I had to come and get it straight from you
They said you were leaving, someone swept your heart away
From the look upon your face I see it's true
So tell me all about it, tell me 'bout the plans you're makin'
Then tell me one thing more before I go

Tell me how am I supposed to live without you
Now that I've been lovin' you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
And how am I supposed to carry on
When all that I've been livin' for is gone

Didn't come here for cryin', didn't come here to break down
It's just a dream of mine is comin' to an end
How can I blame you when I built my world around
The hope that one day we'd be so much more than friends
And I don't wanna know the price I'm gonna pay for dreamin'
I need you know, it's more than I can take

Tell me how am I supposed to live without you
Now that I've been lovin' you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
And how am I supposed to carry on
When all that I've been livin' for is gone

And I don't wanna know the price I'm gonna pay for dreamin'
Now that your dream has come true

Tell me how am I supposed to live without you
Now that I've been loving you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
And how am I supposed to carry on
All that I've been livin' for is gone

Without you, after I've been lovin' you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
And how am I supposed to carry on
When all that I've been

Gloria, you're always on the run now
Running after somebody, you gotta get him somehow
I think you've got to slow down before you start to blow it
I think you're headed for a breakdown, so be careful not to show it

You really don't remember, was it something that he said?
Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?
Gloria, don't you think you're fallin'?
If everybody wants you, why isn't anybody callin'?
You don't have to answer
Leave them hangin' on the line, oh-oh-oh, calling Gloria
Gloria (Gloria), I think they got your number (Gloria)
I think they got the alias (Gloria) that you've been living under (Gloria)
But you really don't remember, was it something that they said?
Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?

A-ha-ha, a-ha-ha, Gloria, how's it gonna go down?
Will you meet him on the main line, or will you catch him on the rebound?
Will you marry for the money, take a lover in the afternoon?
Feel your innocence slipping away, don't believe it's comin' back soon

And you really don't remember, was it something that he said?
Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?
Gloria, don't you think you're fallin'?
If everybody wants you, why isn't anybody callin'?

Oh the night
is my world
City light
painted girl
In the day
nothing matters
It's the night
time that flatters
In the night
no control
Through the wall
something's breaking
Wearing white
as you're walkin
Down the street
of my soul
You take my self
you take my self control
You got me livin
only for the night
Before the morning comes
the story's told
You take my self
you take my self control
Another night
another day goes by
I never stop myself to wonder why
You help me to
forget to play my role
You take my self
you take my self control
I I live among the creatures
of the night
I haven't got the will
to try and fight
Against a new tomorrow
so I guess I'll just believe it
That tomorrow never comes
A safe night
I'm living in the forest of my dream
I know the night
is not as it would seem
I must believe in something
so I'll make myself believe it
That this night will never go
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh the night is my world
City light painted girl
In the day nothing matters
It's the night time that flatters
I I live among the creatures
of the night
I haven't got the will
to try and fight
Against a new tomorrow
so I guess I'll just believe it
That tomorrow never knows
A safe night
I'm living in the forest of a dream
I know the night
is not as it would seem
I must believe in something
so I'll make myself believe it
That this night will never go
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You take my self
you take my self control
You take my self
you take my self control
You take my self
you take my self control
You take my self
you take my self control
You take my self
you take my self control
You take my self
you take my self control
You take my self
you take my self control
You take my self
you take my self control

Ti amo, God how I love you so
My heart just won't let go
Day after day I'm still holdin' on
Even though you're gone
Ti amo, wasn't I good to you?
I did all that I could do
To make you want to be here with me
I thought you loved me
I can't believe you could just turn and leave
Y'did it so easily
You pulled my world out from under me
Look what you've done to me
How could you end it this way
After the love that we made?
God how I wish you had stayed
Can't you see that I just want you back?
Ti amo, I never had a clue that I was losin' you
You never once let me know you were lettin' me go
Oh, I guess it was there in your eyes
Guess it was there in your sighs
Guess it was there in your lies
I was blind then, couldn't face the end
Ti amo, thought we'd go on and on
Thought we had something strong
You pulled my world out from under me
Look what you've done to me
How could you end it this way
After the love that we made?
God how I wish you had stayed
Can't you see that I just want you back?
Ti amo, God how I love you so
My heart just won't let go
Day after day I'm still holdin' on
Even though you're gone
Guess it was there in your eyes
Guess it was there in your sighs
Guess it was there in your lies
I was blind then, couldn't face the end
Ti amo, thought we'd go on and on
Thought we had something strong
You pulled my world out from under me
Look what you've done to me
How could you end it this way
After the love that we made?
God how I wish you had stayed
Can't you see that I just want you back?
Ti amo, wasn't I good to you?
Did all that I could do
To make you want to be here with me
I thought you loved me
I can't believe you could just turn and leave
Y'did it so easily
You pulled my world out from under me
Look what you've done to me
Ti amo, God how I love you so
My heart just won't let go
Day after day I'm still holdin' on
Even though you're gone ... [fade out]

I gave you everything I had
You broke it up and you made it bad
I'm not the kind who can take it alone
I've got nothing more for you
I want somebody who needs me too
I've given up, boy
I'm chasing my joy
And you can make your own
You're not the only one
Go out and have your fun
'Cos my time will come
You can shatter glass
With your heart of stone
But you won't get far on your own
You keep running hot and blowing cold
And everything you hold
Just falls apart like shattered glass
It really doesn't matter to me
Where you're going and who you see
I know that I can make it this time
It doesn't matter any more
Since you've gone and walked out that door
I made a new start
I found a true heart
I'm gonna make it mine
You're not the only one
Go out and have your fun
'Cos my time will come
You can shatter glass
With your heart of stone
But you won't get far on your own
You keep running hot and blowing cold
And everything you hold
Just falls apart like shattered glass
You can shatter glass
With your heart of stone
But you won't get far on your own
You keep running hot and blowing cold
And everything you hold
Just falls apart like shattered glass

It'd be a once in a lifetime dream come true,
And oh, if I could have you,
just one night,
just one time,
But I know I'll never get the chance,
I'll never get a second glance,
Never in a million years,
Never in a thousand tears,
If I could ever hold you,
I'd never let go,
Never in a million years.
How I need you,
If you could only see inside my heart,
And oh, to be near you,
close enough, to reach and touch,
well I've thought it over in my mind,
If I could walk across the bridge of time,
Never in a million years,
Never in a thousand tears,
If I could ever hold you
I'd never let go,
Never in a million years.
But I know, I'll never, never, never get the chance,
I'll never get a second glance,
Never, in a million years,
never in a thousand tears,
If I could ever hold you,
I'd never let you go,
never.
Never in a million years,
Never in a thousand tears,
If I could ever hold you,
I'd never let go,
Never in a million years!
