Rick Springfield - Greatest Hits [compilation] (2002) by Rick Springfield (보컬) on maniadb.com

Jessie is a friend,
Yeah I know he's been a good friend of mine
But lately something's changed
It ain't hard to define
Jessie's got himself a girl
And I want to make her mine
And she's watching him with those eyes
And she's lovin' him with that body, I just know it!
And he's holding her in his arms late, late at night

You know I wish that I had Jessie's girl
I wish that I had Jessie's girl
Where can I find her, a woman like that?

I'll play along with this charade
That doesn't seem to be a reason to change
You know I feel so dirty when they start talking cute
I wanna tell her that I love but the point is probably moot
'Cause she's watching him with those eyes
And she's lovin' him with that body, I just know it!
And he's holding her in his arms late, late at night

You know I wish that I had Jessie's girl
I wish that I had Jessie's girl
Where can I find her, a woman like that?

Like Jessie's girl
I wish that I had Jessie's girl
Where can I find her, a woman...
Where can I find her, a woman like that?

And I'm lookin' in the mirror all the time
Wonderin' what she don't see in me
I've been funny; I've been cool with the lines
Ain't that the way love's supposed to be?
Tell me why can't I find a woman like that?

You know I wish that I had Jessie's girl
I wish that I had Jessie's girl
Where can I find her, a woman like that?

Like Jessie's girl
I wish that I had Jessie's girl
I want, I want Jessie's girl

This one way love affair ain't fair,
it ain't no affair to me
It's all give and take, and you just take,
and I can't take it, you see
Well I'm givin' it up on love this time,
me and my friends, we'll do just fine
I've done everything for you,
you've done nothin' for me
I've done everything for you,
you've done nothin' for me
You knew, some day
I'd have a whole lotta money,
I'd be a millionaire
But when that didn't happen overnight,
I found out how much you really cared
Well, all you want is a whole lotta money,
all the rest is just jivin', honey
I've done everything for you,
you've done nothin' for me
I've done everything for you,
you've done nothin' for me
When I first met you,
you didn't know how to love a man
All those things 'bout makin' love
you didn't understand
But now you know 'bout everything,
I'm turnin' you in for memories
I've done everything for you,
you've done nothin' for me
I've done everything for you,
you've done nothin' for me

I've done everything for you,
you've done nothin' for me
I've done everything for you,
you've done nothin' for me

And I'm goin' out on the town tonight,
and get as wild as I can be
I'm gonna find out
what it's really like to be loose, high and free
Well, I don't care what the people say
I've taken my mind, I'm changin' this day
I've done everything for you,
you've done nothin' for me
I've done everything for you,
you've done nothin' for me
You've done nothin', you've done nothin',
you've done nothin' for me

I'm picking up my baby tonight
Though her daddy's makin' troubles it'll be alright
I'm working hard, I don't know why
I'm like a working class dog and I just get by

*Tonite I'm crawling out from in it,
and though we're living on a brink
Second by second by minute by minute
Love is alright tonite, we're gonna be alright
Love is alright, love is alright tonite

Everyone's saying the sky's gonna fall
Don't know where it's gonna stop if it stops at all
I know the world's going crazy alright
I hope it holds together for one more night

*Repeat

Don't worry daddy,
I'll have her home at a respectable hour
Go to sleep, daddy,
you won't think about tonight
With the night comes the feeling
that I've got this incredible power
Gonna love her, daddy,
she'll be feeling it tonite, alright
It's gonna be alright, it's gonna be alright,
it's gonna be alright

Love is alright tonite and baby,
we're gonna be alright
Love is alright, love is alright tonite

When you were just a young girl and still in school
How come you never learned the golden rule
Don't talk to strange men, don't be a fool
I'm hearing stories, I don't think that's cool

Why don't you tell me, someone is loving you
Cause you're my girl, some say it's no longer true
You're seeing some slick continental dude
I'm begging you, please

Don't Talk To Strangers, baby don't you talk
Don't Talk To Strangers, You know he'll only use you up
Don't talk, don't talk, don't talk,
Don't talk, don't talk to him
Nobody, talk, nobody, ever told you, don't talk

Now tell me, how's life in the big city
I hear the competition's tough, baby that's a pity
And every man's an actor, every girl is pretty
I don't like what's getting back to me

Now who's this, Don Juan I've been hearing of
Love hurts when only one's in love
Did you fall at first sight or did you need a shove
I'm begging you, please

Don't Talk To Strangers, baby don't you talk
Don't Talk To Strangers, You know he'll only use you up
Don't talk, don't talk, don't talk,
Don't talk, don't talk to him
Nobody, talk, nobody ever told you, don't talk

*Fais l'amour avec moi (*Make love to me)
What's he saying baby
*Viens dormir, mon amour (*Come to sleep my love)
I asked you not to talk to him
*Je t'aime donne moi ton coeur ce soir (*I like you to give me your heart this night)
I'm begging you

Don't Talk To Strangers, baby don't you talk
Don't Talk To Strangers, You know he'll only use you up
Don't talk, don't talk, don't talk,

I wonder who she's seeing tonight
Is she really going out with him
He's not her type
And doing all the things she used to do to me
Well, I'd say something to her
But I get so jealous
When I think of her loving somebody else
That I can't think why we ever let go
I must have been crazy

Tell me what kind of fool am I
To just let go,
To just let go like that
What kind of fool am I
To lose you

She was cold sometimes
But she made me feel alive
She was such a spoiled baby
But baby, she could love
And she loved me like nobody ever will again
I thought we'd be together
When the world ran down
When the curtain fell and the lights came up
But the gods or whatever make the world go round
Shuffled when they should have cut

Tell me what kind of fool am I
To just let go,
To just let go like that
What kind of fool am I
To lose you

Did it come too easy to the two of us
Did we go too wrong to ever make it right
Were we too busy checking out the left hand
That we didn't see the right, and

Tell me what kind of fool am I
To just let go,
To just let go like that
What kind of fool am I

Oh baby, please, oh baby, please come back
I meant to say in time
Baby we could work it out
But I never meant to say goodbye

Tell me what kind of fool am I
What kind of fool am I
What kind of fool am I
To lose you

Heart in my mouth, pulse in my head
Mercury rising into the red
The smell of your skin can light up all the fires in me

Hungry to touch, I'm eager to please
Out of control and I hand you the keys
Every night I am burning to make love to you

But don't try to tell me you think it's all physical
It goes much deeper than that

You ought to know it's an affair of the heart
It's an affair of the heart
It's an affair of the heart
Have a little blind faith, believe
It's an affair of the heart

When we make love, it's a passionate thing
You shudder and shake, sink you teeth in my skin
I almost believe you were made to be played by my
hands

And you got the power, it amazes me still
How you play my emotions with consummate skill
I don't have to look any further than into your eyes

So don't try to tell me you think it's just physical
It goes way deeper than that

You better know it's an affair of the heart
It's an affair of the heart
It's an affair of the heart
Have a little blind faith, believe
It's an affair of the heart

Don't try to tell me you think it's all physical
It goes much deeper than that

You ought to know it's an affair of the heart
It's an affair of the heart
It's an affair of the heart
It's an affair of the heart
You better know it's an affair of the heart
It's an affair of the heart
You better know it's an affair of the heart
It's an affair of the heart
Baby, an affair of the heart
It's an affair of the heart

Everybody's talking to computers,
they're all dancing to a drum machine
I know I'm living on the outside
Scared of getting caught between
I'm so cool and calculated alone in the modern world-uh huh

But Sally has a hard time holding back
The alley to her heart is a beaten track
She's got the love monkey riding on her back

[Chorus:]
We all need the human touch
We all need the human touch
I need it the human touch
We all need the human touch
We all need it, and I need it too!

You know, I got my walls, Sally calls them prison cells
Sometimes I need protection, I've got the chains
I got the warning bells
I sit so snug and isolated alone in the modern world-uh huh

But Sally has a hard time holding back
The alley to her heart is a beaten track
She's never out of love, yeah she's got the knack
You've got love I want it, come on girl

[Chorus]

Human touch
Human touch
Human touch
Human touch

I'm so scared and isolated in the modern world

We all need
We all need the human touch
We all need the human touch
We all need the human touch
I need it the human touch
We all need the human touch
I need it the human touch
We all need it, and I need it too!

Human touch

I can see the path you're cutting
It cost me a little piece of my heart
I can see the doors you're shutting
'Cause they were open at the start

Baby loving you has been hard on me
You're such a tough little sister
Just looking for Mr. Right
On the wrong side of town

You better Love Somebody
It's late
You better Love Somebody
Don't wait
You better Love Somebody
Don't tempt fate
You're gonna pull you just a little too far
One night

Your eyes are wild, your skin so white
You're undernourished and overfed
She's got the teeth, she knows how to bite
'Cause when you bit I bled
You got the perfect image
Of the perfect man
You're a tough little sister
But you'll settle for a mister tonight
But you're running out of time

You better love somebody
It's late
You better love somebody
Don't wait
You better love somebody
Don't tempt fate
You're gonna pull you just a little too far
One night

I'm only saying what I feel
You think I'm wrong I know
You thought I was sleeping at the wheel
I thought that you were driving

You better love somebody
You better love somebody
You better love somebody
It's late
You better love somebody
Don't wait
You better love somebody
Don't tempt fate
They're gonna pull you just a little too far
One night...

Bop 'til you drop
In the hot city
Keep on working day and night
Don't stop 'til you get what you want

Bop 'til you drop
In the hot city
Burn the candle, burn it bright
Love will have to wait

You wake up wired and draw on your makeup
And the city breathes
And the city jumps to life
Lately it seems your time is all used up
Chasing dreams of money and the good life

But there is something you've been thinking of
Lately you're feeling the power of love
Everybody says it's so hard to hold
The alarm rings
You gotta get up, you gotta get up

Bop 'til you drop
In the hot city
Keep on working day and night
Don't stop 'til you get what you want

Bop 'til you drop
'Til you sit pretty
Burn the candle, burn it bright
Love will have to wait

People say you're the lucky one
But you don't believe it
And you want to stop
And you want to take some time
To sus' out a feeling and look for a reason
And the flesh is weak but the spirit is willing

'Cause there is something you've been thinking of
Lately you're feeling the power of love
Everybody says it's so, so hard to hold
The alarm rings
You gotta get up, you gotta get up

Bop 'til you drop
In the hot city
Keep on working day and night
Don't stop 'til you get what you want

Bop 'til you drop
'Til you sit pretty
Burn the candle, burn it bright
Love won't love won't wait

There is something you've been thinking of
Lately you're feeling the power of love
Everybody says it's so hard to hold
The alarm rings
You gotta get up, you gotta get up

Bop 'til you drop
In the hot city
Keep on working day and night

(Bop 'til you drop)
Bop
(Bop 'til you drop)
Bop
(Bop 'til you drop)
Bop
(Bop 'til you drop)

Bop 'til you drop
In the hot city
Keep on working day and night
Don't stop 'til you get what you want

Bop 'til you drop
'Til you sit pretty
Burn the candle, burn it bright
Love will, love will have to wait

Bop 'til you drop
In the hot city
Keep on working day and night
Don't stop 'til you get what you want

Bop 'til you drop
'Til you sit pretty
Burn the candle, burn it bright
Love will have to wait

(Bop 'til you drop)

I can see the older man
Looking at the younger man

Looking at the boy
Other there the older woman
Is looking at the younger woman
I can see the younger woman
Looking at the girl

Cause every man sees
In the younger man the hope
Every woman sees
In the younger girl the dream
Everybody lives
The pride and passion of the young
)From the womb to the tomb

So celebrate youth (celebrate)
Those who have it (young ones)
Celebrate youth (celebrate)
Give them sight
The future of the world's in the (celebrate)

Look in a child's eye
There's no hate and there's no lie
There's no black and there's no white

And sometimes in the older man
I still see the young boy
Burning in his eye


And locked up here inside out spirit
Is the child that we are hear it
Some of us will always fear it
And some will heed the cry

I know your name
I told you mine
We've stopped and passed the time of day
You work in town
I work at night
That gives us six until seven to work this out

If I seem a little strange
It's just the state of the heart
I'm waiting here for you
In the state I'm in

You are the moon
I am the sea
You pull me in and gaze on down at me
I was alone
I thought I was immune
The door can still be open wide

If I feel a little strange
It's just the state of the heart
I'm waiting here for you
In the state I'm in
It's just the state of the heart
I wait in the dark
I the state I'm in

We get closer and closer
To falling out or falling in
I go over and over
But I can't change the state
This heart is in

If I seem a little strange
It's just the state of the heart
I'm waiting here for you
In the state I'm in
It's just the state of the heart
You know I wait in the dark
In the state I'm in
It 's the state of the heart
The state of the heart, oh
The state of the heart
The state of the heart, oh

Big beat talk to me
Waking up blind with the house on fire

Well I pick up my guitar, (I tune up)
I look in the mirror
It’s like a stranger in my hand (the baby is crying)
There comes a time when the boy must leave (get up)
And the man has to enter
For the soul to understand (all of the changes)
As if it ain’t hard enough this life I’m living in
I was caught with my guard down
When the world came knocking

I feel the big beat, the rock of life
Big beat talk to me
I feel the back beat, the rock of life
Waking up blind with the house on fire

Is it something in my head (look up)
Or the time of season
Or the little boy in my hands (must be a reason)
Yeah, there’s new meaning in my life (a shake-up)
But there’s pain and confusion
And I’m trying to understand (all of the changes)
I’ve been cut so deep but I can’t make it bleed
I was caught with my head in the sand
When the world came knocking

I feel the big beat, the rock of life
Big beat talk to me
I feel the back beat, the rock of life

It ain’t no perfect life
This one I’m living in
And I was caught with my guard down
When the world came knocking

I feel the big beat, the rock of life
Big beat talk to me
I feel the back beat, the rock of life
