Wild Orchid

So alone
And this room feels so cold
No one to care and no one to hold
Yeah the Lord knows
That I'm needing somebody like you
just like you
Can you see
The passion hurning in my eyes
Do you sense
The rush you give my heart
And if you knew
The secret way I feel for you
Would you come running
to me or would you turn away

At night I pray
With hope and faith
As I lay me down to sleep
I pray together we will be
And there will come a time
You'll be mine, all mine
And I'll be yours always
But until that day comes
At night I'll pray

Should I feel
There emotions inside me
Should I reveal what's locked up
in my soul
I'm so afraid
But it's something that you've got
to know
How I want
To touch you every time you're near
I long to feel
Your body next mine
And if you knew
The secret way I have for you
Would you come running
to me or would you turn away

If all my prayers were answered
Our hearts would be emaptured
We would fine our heaven
Inside each other' s arms
This lonely room would finally see
the sun shine through
But until that day every Night I'll pray
I'll get down on my knees
I'll get down on my knees and Pray...

* Showin' it, flowin' it, doin' it right
Cuz you can't connect if you be polite
Come a come say that you'll be mine

You can send it in a bottle
or even by U.P.S.
Send it in a telegram
just make sure that it gets here fast
You can mail it in a letter
call me up on the telephone
Have it written in the sky
can't you see that I'm dying to know

Yeah, it's O.K. that you're a little shy
Cuz there's a thousand and one ways
To say what you wanna say

All I want is a message
All I need is a sign
Baby, just give me a signal
That you're gonna be mine
Gonna be mine

* Repeat

Have it printed on a billboard
or e-mail me on the net
Dedicate it on the radio, or send it by Fed Express

You know I've benn waiting so patiently
Don't go and waste precious time
Cuz I can't read you're mind

When you're with me, I barely breathe
I just can't speak what I feel
Say the words for me

Shelter my feelings, stand by my side
You need no alibi
Show your emotions, give me a sign
Let me know that you're mine

Be my lover, be my best friend
Oh baby, save me when I fade
And I will always love you
I promise I'll be true to you
If you...

Come as you are
Don't change a thing
Here is my heart
Just walk right in
Come as you are
Don't tell me lies
And I'll be yours
Till do us part

There is a heaven
It's in your eyes
Where I have no disguise
Please don't mislead me
Rescue my pride

Show me you're really mine
I want you for me, no questions asked
Don't need to know 'bout your past
'Cause I will always love you
I promise I'll be true to you
If you...

If I told you once
I've told you a thousand times
But you never listen to me
I just wanna be free to live
To live my life
I don't want your thoughts
Or your opinions of me

You think you tell me what I wanna know
But I only listen
To what I need to hear
So much drama I don't understand
] How you make nothing
Sound so sincere

I'm gonna do what I wanna do
Say what I wanna say
Be who I wanna be baby (Repeat)

You're always trying to tell me
Where I can go
Or who it is that I can socialize with, baby
But as long as I don't hurt no one
Or break no laws
You're best to know
I won't put up with it

In the middle of the rapture
tell me where will you go
Baby don't get captured
cause then I'll have to follow
I will follow you anywhere
Oh, where you are I will be there
Then you'll follow me

In the middle of the ocean
tell me where will you be
Once you reach your destination
look around
You will find me I will follow you anywhere
Oh where you are I will be there
then you'll follow me

Chorus:

Just follow me, let your mind be free
I will be waiting (I will be waiting)
Just follow me, so patiently
Love will be waiting

Just follow me, let your mind be free
I will be waiting (Oh yes)
Just follow me, so patiently
Love will be waiting

In the middle of the desert
thirstin for what's out of reach
Lift your hands up to the sky
and you'll touch a part of me
Cause you know where you are I will be there
Just follow me, Come on, So patiently
love will be waiting

I will follow you anywhere
Cause you know where you are
Where you go I will be there
(I, I will be there yeah)
Just follow me

Just follow me, let your mind be free
I will be waiting (Come on)
Just follow me, so patiently (So patiently)
Love will be waiting (Love will be waiting)

As you're runnin from the thunder
listen through the pouring rain
And you'll hear a silent echo
I'll be calling out your name
(Calling out your name)
I will follow you anywhere
(I will be there baby)
Oh where you are I will be there

(chorus)

He's alright, my baby is alright
He knows what I like naturally
My man is all right, Yeah he's got it right
My baby's alright, alright with me

There are men, then there are men (oh yeah)
And mine is a Mercedes Benz
He's so strong, yet so gentle (he's so)
He always know the right things to say
Even on my bad days

Makes no demand, he understands
He's not afraid to say (I love you)
Maybe he don't live (in a mansion)
Maybe he don't drive (nothing fancy)
But he revs me up
the lovin that he gives to me is enough

He's alright, my baby is alright
He knows what I like naturally
My man is all right, Yeah he's got it right
My baby's alright, alright with me

In a crowd, he stands out (stands out)
He's a gentleman without a doubt
He's so smooth, yet so sexy (so so sexy)
He's versatile and that really gets me
If you know what I mean

He's mystical, logical
He brightens up the (darkest day)
Maybe he don't wear (Valentino)
But he don't care (because he knows)
That what's inside is better
than anything money can buy

He's alright, my baby is alright
He knows what I like naturally
My man is all right, Yeah he's got it right
My baby is alright, sexually

So right that it makes me go, Yeah, Yeah...

He got the goody goody goody goody good lovin
Feels so nice when we're kissin and huggin
He got the goody goody, the good lovin

Keep ma bell dem ringin
And when him touch mi body an it

Whenever I'm in danger
He's my knight in shining armor...do it

Him a raise mi temperature to the extreme
(He's logical and mystical the man of all my dreams)
Get me so hot...my haffa let off steam

Body well lean

Good lovin everyday...Ladies whe you sel..

Makes no demand, he understands

to wild up your ear
Ah mon big up wanna taste
ah good loving er tang every tang
Nice and easy so you mean uh huh!

So right that it makes me go yeah
Com-a- toucha- my- life

They say patience is a virtue
But I've been waithing too long
I believed in your promises
And it hurts to see I'm wrong

The one more tries, the sleepless nights
The countless tears that I've cried

Why should I keep holding on
When I know someone new is holding you
Why should I keep holding on
I gotta let go, cuz love's already gone

Stairways leading down to nowhere
Roads that never end
Why keep going 'round in circles
To break my heart again

Caressed my hair, then left me there
Alone but you don't care

I used to think that I should blame myself
But it wasn't me who was seeing someone else
Now here's a me you've never seen before
As you're watching me walk right out the door

The stage is set so let the curtain rise
As for the ending my dear that 's
for me to decide
You may think you know the rode that I play
You'll be so surprised when it's not that way

* I won't play the fool anymore
This time I walk out the door
And leave you standing here all alone
This time I find on my own
Someone who loves me
'Cause I, I won't play the fool anymore

No more dramatic scense, only a short
goodbye
To all the lonely nights to all the good times
I found it in my heart to love
Now I must find the strenght to go
Too late for hapy endings,
now it's time you know
It's time you know, it's time you know

* Repeat

so let me dry your eyes, it's gonna be
alright
But understanding me when I say
It's time have to lie no more - try no more
'Cause baby one thing's for sure...
I won't play the fool anymore...

* Repeat

Silence
Here in my room
A symphony in my mind
Shadows
Dance on the wall
Impossible to confine

Dreams of a happy day gone by
Leave me asking wondering why
I never saw it there in your eyes
I never wanted too much
I never needed too much
Then at the moment of truth
You only thought about you

Who will save me
Baby
When the walls come crashing down
In my room

Voices calling your name
My broken dreams on the ground
Fighting tears as they fall
I'm trying hard not to drown

Dreams of my window open wide
All the nights you crawled inside
How could you let me think
You would stay

I never wanted too much
I never needed too much
But at the moment of truth
The one you thought of was you
Who will save me
Baby
When the walls come crashing down
In my room

I never wanted too much
I never needed too much
But at the moment of truth
All I can think of is you
In my room

(A duration of an earthly existance)
(A specific phase of earthly existance)
(A sentence of imprisonment with
the remaining quotient of a convicts existance)
(Life is a sequence of musical and mental
experiences that make up the existance of an individual)

A sister wants a brother
Always trying to please another
Young girls wish that they were old
A petal wants to be its own rose

See life has such funny ways
But don't regret you came
See life is always changing
Yet life remains the same
So much to gain...

To win...to lose...to try
Oh yeah, it's all a part of life
To heal...to feel...to be real
Oh yeah, it's all a part of life

(Life, your life)

Empty pages will find words someday (someday)
A perfect person will disobey
You may never find true love
Why must one be taken advantage of...

See life has such funny ways
But don't regret you came
See life is always changing
Yet still remains the same
So much to gain

To win...to lose...to try
Oh yeah, it's all a part of life
To laugh...to cry...to never
Oh yeah, it's all a part of life
To learn...to hope...to dream...to cope
To heal...reveal...to feel...to be real
It's all a part of life

Oh no, not without a fight
I won't give up...I won't give up
Don't give up
Don't give up
Sequence of physical and spiritual experience
Don't give up
Vital and functional - distinctly individual
Don't give up
Pattern of principal existing in reality
Don't give up
Of or relating to the animal mentality
Don't

:
Lying here alone with you
So able to be free
How easy it would be
To give you all of me

I'm closer to you now
Closer than I have ever been before
As my body starts to give it all
My heart stops to be sure that

Love Will Wait
More than just a minute
I'm telling you that
Love Will Wait

It holds what lies within it
And time will only help us grow
And when we let these feelings go
Waiting there will be love

I feel the ticking of your heart
It's beating so close to mine
Still I don't want to go too far
Until I know that it's right

Someday when we explore
When we explore the world that's yet unknown
The beauty of it will be worth
The patience that we've shown

Love Will Wait (Love Will Wait)
More than just a minute (More than just a minute)
I'm telling you that (It holds what lies within)
Time can only help us grow and when we let these feelings go
Waiting there will be love

We've both been there before
At times too blind to see
That love will wait (Love will wait)

And when I open up my eyes
I see your face still smiles
That's when I know that ...

Love Will Wait (Love Will Wait)
I'm telling you that (Love Will Wait)
Time can only help us grow and when we let these feelings go
Waiting there will be love (Love Will Wait)

(More than just a minute) (More than just a minute)
I'm telling you that (Love Will Wait) (It holds what lies within)
Time can only help us grow and when we let these feelings go
Waiting there will be love

Promise me that if you leave
You won't be coming back again
It hurts to see your face when you look at me that way
Don't try to take me in your arms
'Cause I don't thik that I could find the strength
To let you go, and leave me here alone

I need to break the ties that keep on breaking my heart
Not gonna hang on to the strings you tore apart

So make it easy for me, if you ever loved me
The hardest thing I'll ever do is say goodbye
Still loving you
So make it easy for me, if you ever loved me
Turn around and walk away
'Cause we've run out of words to say

You promised me our love would be
A fairy tale that everyone would wish for in their dreams
Well, where's my happy ending
Memories play in my mind, frame by frame
I see it all
How could I have been so blind

Say you're sorry to me a million times
But that will never ease the pain
That I will feel right now inside
You can try and make it better
But no matter what your do, you took away forever
When you told me we were through

Aren't you gonna come 'cause you
wanna come
Won't you come play... (X2)

Yeah I got a little somethin' I want
you to play with
And it arn't a little somethin'I
usually give away
You see I'm looking for a new one to
join my hand
I promise you'll have lots of fun
Once you take it in your hand

What a gentle sound what a pretty
little sound
When you shake it all around
It's making me move 'cause you
know just what to do
You're the best I've ever found

What a lovely sound what a sexy
little sound
It'll never let you down
'Cause I know that you can make it
scream... Ow!

My Tambourine
Won't you come and play
My Tambourine
Cradle it in your palm
My Tambourine
Now get down on your knees and
play
My Tambourine

Now I see you wanna keep on
playing the same old tune
So you better come to practice to
learn something new
And if you're looking for somebody
who'll guide you through
Then you already met your match
'Cause honey I can shake it, too

* What a gentle sound what a pretty
little sound
When you shake it all around
It's making me move 'cause you
know just what to do
I'm the best you've ever found

What a lovely sound what a sexy
little sound
It'll never let you down
'Cause I know that you can make it
scream... Ow!

If you want to come and play
You better be on your way
'Cause it'll be here waiting
And if you wand to maybe stay
You know that it's okay
'Cause it'll keep on playing

*Repert

Because I know that you can make it
scream
Oh yeah..
Oh, I wonder how you make it

We've got a secret, but our lips are sealed
We've got a secret, but our lips are sealed

Can you hear them they talk about us
Tellin' lies, well that's no surprise
Can you see them, see right through them
They have no shield, no secrets to reveal

It doesn't matter what they say
In the jealous games people play--hey-hey-hey
Our lips are sealed

There's a weapont hat we must use
In our defense, silence
When you look at them, look right through them
That's when they disappear, that's when we'll be feared

It doesn't matter what they say
In the jealous games people play-- hey-hey-hey
Our lips are sealed
Pay no mind to what they say
'Cause it doesn't matter anyway--hey-hey-hey
Our lips are sealed

We've got a secret but
Our lips are sealed

Hush my darling, don't you cry
Silent angels--forget their lies

Can you hear them they talk about us
Tellin' lies, well that's no surprise
Can you see them, see right through them
They have no shield, no secrets to reveal

Love like a river
Flowing deeper than time
Rushing over my senses
Like sweet cherry wine
Stole my emotion
Like a thief in the night
Love made me an offer
I couldn't deny
You raise me up until I can't
see the ground
Wanna tell the whole world about
this love that I found

* Supernatural love
You're giving me
Supernatural high
Heaven sent from above
Supernatural love
Oh, Supernatural

I'd like to thank you
For changing my world
You make a woman
From a lost little girl
My soul was scarching
Scarching to find
Somethng to cherish
A love so divine

I'm hypnotized by feelings I've
never felt
It's like you magic put me under
a speel

* Repeat

Keep on, keep on giving me
Keep on, keep on giving me
keep on giving me
Supernatural love

I'm hypnotized by feelings I've
never felt
It's like you magic put me under
a speel

* Repeat

Lift me higher, higher and higher
Lift me higher than I've ever been
before
Lift me higher, higher and higher
With Supernatural love
Keep on, keep on giving me
Keep on...

Hello goodbye--do you wanna ride
You don't need to know where you're going
Take a trip through the old and the new
It's easy to see that you're jonesin'

Come fall into our journey
We'll raise our hands to lift you up
So stay awake it's early
'Cuz there's always more tequila

Let me take you higher
Wanna be the birdy on our wire baby?
We can take you higher
Let's fly high

Cruise the ocean then down to L.A.
The beautiful people are waiting
See and be seen it's only a dream
Feel reality fadin'

Come fall into our journey
We'll raise our hands to lift you up
So stay awake it's early
Don't you want some more teqila

No thinkin' while you're drinkin'
It just gets in the way
All the faces and the places
Yeah, they all look the same
But you're lucky like a puppy
So go on, roll the dice
Think high

Talk to me
Talk to me
Talk to me tonight about love

Hey now just what are we feeling
Is this more than attraction
that we both are dealing with
And is it in the cards that we stay together
I recognize the odds against it lasting forever

There's a message that you're sending
I can see it in your eyes
But I don't know what you're thinking
I can't read your heart or mind
Come with me we'll make tonight a fantasy
If you say the word, I'll take you on a journey

Talk to me
Talk to me
Talk to me tonight about love

Hey now just what are we feeling
Is this more than attraction
that we both are dealing with
And is it in the cards that we stay together
I recognize the odds against it lasting forever

There's a message that you're sending
I can see it in your eyes
But I don't know what you're thinking
I can't read your heart or mind
Come with me we'll make tonight a fantasy
If you say the word, I'll take you on a journey

Moving on baby
I went to the river, thinkin bout jumpin in
Thinkin about your ways baby
Trying to forget how to swim

As I stood there, watching the train go by
Oh what a message - that's when I realized

Oh baby, is it gonna last very long
Look at the river and how it keeps movin on
Oh baby, what we had is almost gone
Look at the river and how it keeps movin on

Movin on
Would you just look at the river
Movin on

My emotions move with the current and the wind
No direction, and no definite end
That's when I realized how the ripples in the water seemed to shine
Reminds me of you and I baby, at one point in time

And just like a river - like a river flowin - into a waterfall (Stef and Renee)
After falling are we movin on -inside I feel - I can feel it flow

Oh baby, is it gonna last very long
Look at the river look at it how it keeps movin on and movin on
Oh baby, what we had is almost gone
Look at the river and how it keeps movin on

Under the train bridge - it keeps movin on
Goes round to the whirlpool - it keeps movin on
No still waters baby, are gonna hold me down
And all I wanna know is - are you comin with me

I have got to keep moving on
Moving on yeah
Moving on I said
Moving on

Oh baby, is it gonna last very long
Look at the river look at it how it keeps movin on and movin on
Oh baby, what we had is almost gone
Look at the river and how it keeps movin on

Moving, moving
moving, moving
moving, moving
Would you just look at the river

Moving on
Moving on I said

Moving, moving
moving
moving, moving
baby
moving, moving
Would you just look, look at the river

Moving on
Moving on I said

Sometimes when two people meet
You know that undeniably
There can be an instant chemistry
Do you feel the magic here with me
Ohh, let's not wait
No need to hesitate
Better find out before it's too late


Tic toc look at the clock
Love is just a moment away
Don't stop, make my world rock
Come closer don't make me wait
Tic toc the doors are all locked
Love is just a moment away


Never gonna stop
Gonna make you rock
To the rhythm of the Tic Toc


Longing for those sleepless nights
Sunday morning lazy days and candlelight
The anticipation drives me wild
Fantasies they just won't leave my mind


Ohh let's not wait
Destiny said this is fate
Just imagine what we could create


All night long
Never gonna stop
Gonna make you rock
To the rhythm of the Tic Toc
Just hold on
Take it nice and slow
Wanna make it slow
Like the rivers and the oceans go
Feel the current deep down below
We'll be free
It's a mystery
Wondering what will be
Fortune tellers are telling me
In the crystal ball they can see
You and me


Ohh, time keeps ticking away
It goes by so fast
Let's live in the moment, let's make this love last

How could you do this to me?
How could you do this to me?
I put my trust in you
That's what you're supposed to do
How could you tell all those lies
While you're looking dead straight in my eyes?
You're someone I thought I knew
She must have thought so too
Before I say goodbye

Just tell me why did I give a little bit more
And take just a little bit less
And try just a little bit harder
When it's all just wasted love
Why did you kiss me that way?
Why did you stay?
Now it's all just wasted love

Looking back now it's all makin sense
When you said she was only a friend
Friends who were making love
Was it worth breaking up?
All the answers I don't want to know
I'll keep asking for after I go
The flowers they came too late
You've turned the love to hate
It's your turn now to cry

We can try and lie, but we both know
Too many things have changed
The memory of her in your arms
Is driving me insane

The shattered dream just breaks my heart
I can't go on this way
I will never look at you the same
You wear a different face

Now that we've traveled through mountains
Now that we swam throught the sea
I'm sure we can go just a little bit further
As long as there's still you and me

Ahead I can see a few showers
Maybe we'll weather a storm
It's my turn to watch as you sleep by the meadow
I'll keep us both safe from all harm

Just as long as I know that you're here with me
We can crumble the mountains divide the sea
If we try than we can, if we stick to the plan
Of L-O-V-E as long as there's still you and me
You and me, you know I love you baby
You know I love you boy

Side by side, hand in hand we'll keep moving
Temptation might call out my name
You'll be the first to say go ahead and answer
And I'll be the first one to say

The magic that's found in dreams
Is the music you put in me
We'll build castles up in the sky
That's the power of you and I

There we were
On a Sunday afternoon
Just holding hands
Lovers making future plans togther
We thought forever, forever, yeah...

Now here we are
The hand that used to hold gently
Doesn't know when to let me go
It holds too tight now
And we just fight now
Where is the love

You don't own me
Can't control me
I'm not gonna change for nobody

You don't own me
You can't chain me down
If I'm the one you love
Then set me free
Set me free

Side by side
We should walk togther
See love eye to eye
Remember all the reasons why you love me
Strength within me
Can't tie it down

You're not my mother
Not my father
You're supposed to be my lover
Not my siser
Not my brother
Gotta be more than just another
Another guy forgettin' the combination to my heart
Just another page inside a book without a mark
Love won't be my ball and chain
Driving me insane
'Cause you're holdin' me down
Stop holdin' me down

You don't own me
You can't chain me down
If I'm the one you love
Set me free

Don't worry about me
Don't worry about you
Cause everything you do
Boy I've done too
Don't worry about me
Don't worry about you
Cause everything you
Boy I've done too

A little bit of heaven
And a little bit of hell
You know the words to say
And you say it well
I know your little secret
I know your little lie
So go on tell me
I'll believe your alibi

You set the stage and
You're playing a part
But I've always known who really are
So intellectual

Chorus
You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
Baby, you're no good
I'm gonna say it again
You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
Baby, you're no good
But I like it

A little bit of torture
A little bit of tease
And your demeanor
Covers your real need
I hear your little whisper
I hear your little sigh
But are you bored with
All those social butterflies

I'll give my life
Just lay in the dark
Cause I've always known who you really are
So intellectual

Chorus

I know it's wrong
It feels so right
This candle burns
Without a light
The fire feeds my hunger
For your open door
And just a little more

Chorus
