James Ingram - Greatest Hits: The Power Of Great Music [compilation] (1991) by James Ingram (보컬) on maniadb.com

Where did my heart go When did it lose the way How did I let you slip away Why is it so hard to say (The) words that might touch you Make you believe that I'm More than it seems that I am today I can run But I can't hide From all these dreams That I keep inside Now, it's gonna to take a while But I've got to learn to smile again Once it was easy I never had to try I never had to tell a lie Never thought I'd see you cry But now I know better (And) I've got to find a way I don't wanna hear you say goodbye I can run But I can't hide From all these dreams That I keep inside Now, it's gonna to take a while But I've got to learn to smile again I've got to find the smile That fills your heart with laughter Don't wanna find a way To get along after you I wanna be the man, that you knew Now it's gonna take a while But I've gotta learn to smile again Again

How do you keep the music playing?
How do you make it last?
How do you keep the song from fading too fast?
How do you lose yourself to someone?
And never lose your ways
How do you not run out of new things to say?
And since we′re always changing
How can it be the same?
And tell me how year after year
You′re sure your heart will fall apart
Each time you hear his name
I know the way I feel for you
It′s now or never
The more I love the more that i′m afraid
That in your eyes I may not see forever..
Forever...

If we can be the best of lovers
Yet be the best of friends
If we can try with everyday to make it better as it grows
With any luck, then I suppose
The music never ends

I know the way I feel for you
It′s now or never!
(How do you keep the music playing?)
The more I love the more that I′m afraid
(How do you make it last)
That in your eyes I may not see forever
Forever...
(How do you keep the song from fading, keep the song from fading too fast)
If we can be the best of lovers
Yet be the best of friends
If we can try with everyday to make it better as it grows
With any luck, then I suppose
The music never ends

I did my best
But i guess my best wasn't good enough
'Cause here we are back where we were before
Seems nothing ever changes
We're back to being strangers
Wond'ring if we ought to stay or head on out the door

Just once
Can we figure out
What we keep doin' wrong?
Why we never last for very long
What are we doing wrong?

Just once
Can't we find a way to fin'lly make it right?
To make the magic last for more than just one night
If we could just get to it
I know we could break thru it

I gave my all
But I think my all may have been too much
'Cause Lord knows
We're not getting anywhere
Seems we're always blowin'
Whatever we've got going
And it seems at times with all we've got
We haven't got a prayer

Just Once
Can't we figure out what we keep doin' wrong?
Why the good times never last for long?
Where are we going wrong?

Just once
Can't we find a way to fin'lly make it right?
To make the magic last more than just one night
I know we could break thru' it
If we could just get to it
Just Once
Ooh.. We can get to it..
Just Once...

somewhere out there beneath the pale blue night someone's thinking of me and loving me tonight somewhere out there someone's saying a prayer then we'll find one anothere in that big somewhere out there and even though I know how very far apart we are it helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star and when the night will start to sing a lonesome lullaby it helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky somewhere out there if love can see us through then we'll be together somewhere out there out where dreams come true

Turn down the lights,
Baby turn off the telephone.
Now its time to forget the day you’ve been through.
You don’t say much but now we’re here alone.
There’s just one thing left to do oh woman

You better get ready to give love tonight.
Lay back, relax and let me do it right. lady,
Get ready to give love tonight.
Just leave the rest up to me.

Listen. don’t say a word, baby,
I’ve got this evening planned.
I’m here for you, body and soul.
Just put yourself completely in my hands.
‘coz your pleasure is my goal.

Oh uh oh woman

You better get ready (get yourself ready) to give love tonight.
Lay back, relax and let me do it right.
Baby get ready to give love tonight.
Just leave the rest up to me.

Baby better keep the fantasies again.
I’m gonna dedicate myself to making each one come true.
Girl, you’ve given me so many nights I’ll never forget.
I want you to have this one just for you.

Wohoo

Oh you better get ready. I’m gonna love you.
Lay back relax and I’m gonna do it right.
Darlin’, darlin’ baby won’t just go easy to me.
I’m gonna love you.
I’m gonna hold you.
I’m gonna do you right.

You better get ready to give love tonight.
Lay back, relax and let me do it right.
Lady, get ready to give love tonight.
Just leave the rest up to me.

Thinkin′ back in time
When love was only in my mind
I realize..

Ain′t no second chance
You got to hold on to romance
Don′t let it slide
There′s a special kind of magic in the air
When you find another heart that needs to share

Chorus:
Baby, come to me
Let me put my arms around you
This was meant to be
And i′m oh so glad i found you
Need you everyday
Got to have your love around me
Baby always stay
′Cause i can′t go back to livin′ without you

Spendin′ every dime
To keep you talkin′ on the line
That′s how it was
And all those walk together
Out in any kind of weather
Just because
There′s a brand new way of looking at your life
When you know that love is standing by your side

The night can be cold
There′s a chill to every evening when you′re all alone
Don′t talk anymore
′Cause you know that I′ll be here to keep you warm

Chorus:
Baby, come to me
Let me put my arms around you
This was meant to be
And i′m oh so glad i found you
Need you everyday
Got to have your love around me
Baby always stay
′Cause i can′t go back to livin′ without you

Compliment what she does
Send her roses just because
If it's violins she loves
Let them play
Dedicate her favourite song
And hold her closer all night long
Love her today
Find one hundred ways

Dont forget, there could be
An old lover in her memory
If you need her so much more
Why don't you say?
Maybe she has it in her mind
That she's just wasting her time
Ask her to stay
Find one hundred ways

Being cool won't help you keep a love warm
You'll just blow your only chance
Take the time to open up your heart
That's the secret of romance

Sacrifice if you care
Buy her some moonlight to wear
If it's one more star she wants
Go all the way
In your arms tonight, she'll reflect
That she owes you the sweetest of debts
If she wants to pay
Find one hundred ways

Love her today
Find one hundred ways

Heavenly Father, watchin' us fall
We take from each other and give nothing at all
Well, it's a doggone shame
But never too late for change
So, if your luck runs low
Just reach out and call His name, His name

(Chorus)
Yah Mo Be There, Yah Mo Be There
Yah Mo Be There, Yah Mo Be There

Whenever you call...

(Verse 2)
Never be lonely, lost in the night
Just run from the darkness, lookin' for the light
'Cause it's a long, hard road
That leads to a brighter day, hey...
Don't let your heart grow cold
Just reach out and call His name, His name...

(Chorus) x 2

(Bridge)
Yah will be there
You can count on it brother
'Cause we're all just finding our way
Travelin' through time
People got to keep pushin' on
No matter how many dreams slip away
Yah will be there

Well, it's a doggone shame
But never too late for change
So, when your luck runs low
Just reach out and call His name
Just call His name

(Chorus)

You have a choice
Your heart will know
You gotta look back sometime
To know where to go

You have a voice
Long as you live
It's never too small
Whatever you got to give

When your life is low (hold on)
And you want to let go (be strong - hold on)

Remember the dream we had
When there was nothing else
Remember the light that shines
And find it in yourself
Remember the dream is yours
So let it guide your way
And keep it alive with you each day

Don't ever say
You just don't care
the chances you take
Will take you as far as you dare

Don't be afraid
Hold your head high
There's strength in your soul
You never know till you try

When your life is low (hold on)
And you want to let go (be strong -- hold on)

You're not alone .. somebody cares
(Hold on ...be strong)
When you're walkin' the road
With those who been there
(You're not alone)

Remember the dream is yours
So let it guide your way
And keep it alive with you each day.

Don′t be afraid
I can meet you half way
We cant always know
Where the road ends up
But with some luck
I know we can go
Where-ever we imagine

Why should we wait
Later on maybe too late
Cause where can we run
When you see there′s half a chance
That we might really become
Whatever we imagine

And I imagine you and me
Just taking shots at what we see
And if we falter
Take away the dust
And just outlast them all

You ought to see
All your heroes in me
But if we get wise
We can break the walls we make
And you can see in my eyes
Whatever we imagine

And I imagine you and me
Just taking shots at what we see
So let the walls go down
And we can try it again
Cause nobody can stop us now

Dont be afraid
Cause I′ll meet you half way
You′re not far behind
If we climb this hill
I know there′s still a chance we can find
Whatever we imagine in our life

We can make it there baby
Ohhh, Whatever we imagine
Dont you see baby
It′s all in our minds
I′ll meet you halfway
Whatever we imagine (faded)
