Dr. Hook - Greatest Hooks (2007) by Dr. Hook (보컬) on maniadb.com

Dr. Heckyll works late at the laboratory
Where things are not as they seem
Dr. Heckyll wishes nothing more desperately
Than to fulfill his dreams

Letting loose with a scream in the dead of night
As he's breaking new ground
Trying his best to unlock all the secrets
But he's not sure what he's found

Dr. Heckyll is his own little guinea pig
'Cos they all think he's mad
Sets his sights on the search of a lifetime
And he's never, never sad

Whoa oh, it's off to work he goes
In the name of science and all its wonders

This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive
They are a person who feels good to be alive
This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive
Believes the underdog will eventually survive

Not long now till the ultimate experiment
He's breaking all the rules
He wants to cure all matter of imbalance
In this world of fools

He locks the door and looks around nervously
He knows there's no one there
He drinks it down and waits for some reaction
To all his work and care

Hey, hey he fumbles for what to say
He loves the world except for all the people

This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive
They are a person who feels good to be alive
This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive
Believes the underdog will eventually survive

Whoa, oh, it's out at night he goes
He sips easily into conversation
Hey hey, he's cool in every way
Sometimes he likes to sing that old black magic

This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive
They are a person who feels good to be alive
This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive
Believes the underdog will eventually survive

We have short time to stay
Our night is slipping far away
Caught up within bad memories
Our growth seems certain to decay

Now this feeling's so alive
But, as you or anything, we die
We die

Let's stay here for a while
Eyes so round and bright we gently smile
Live for the moment, not the past
Why do we always fall so fast?

This magic moment
So different and so new
Was like any other
Until I kissed you

And then it happened
It took me by surprise
I knew that you felt it too
By the look in your eyes

Sweeter than wine
Softer than the summer night
Everything I wanna have
Whenever I hold you tight

This magic moment
While your lips are close to mine
Will last forever
Forever till the end of time

Magic
Magic
Magic
Magic

Sweeter than wine
Softer than the summer night
Everything I wanna have
Whenever I hold you tight

This magic moment
While your lips are close to mine
Will last forever
Forever till the end of time

Magic
Magic
Magic

She was only sixteen, only sixteen
But I loved her so
But she was too young to fall in love
And I was too young to know
We'd laugh and we'd sing and do funny things
And it made our hearts glow
But she was too young to fall in love
And I was too young to know
So why did I give my heart so fast
It never will happen again
But I was a mere child of sixteen
I've aged a year since then
She was only sixteen, only sixteen
Ooh, with eyes that would glow
But she was too young to fall in love
And I was too young to know
So why did I give my heart so fast
It never will happen again
But I was a mere child of sixteen
I've aged a year since then
Now she was only sixteen, only sixteen
Ooh, but I loved that girl so
But she was too young to fall in love
And I was too young to know
Yes, she was too young to fall in love
And I, I was too young
I was much too young to know

When your body's had enough of me
And I'm layin flat out on the floor
When you think I've loved you all I can
I'm gonna love you a little bit more
Come on over here and lay by my side
I've got to be touchin you
Let me rub your tired shoulders
The way I used to do
Look into my eyes and give me that smile
The one that always turns me on
And let me take your hair down
Cause we're stayin up to greet the sun.....
And when your body's had enough of me
And I'm layin flat out on the floor
When you think I've loved you all I can
I'm gonna love you a little bit more
Got to say a few things that have been on my mind
And you know where my mind has been
I guess I learned my lessons
And now's the time to begin
So if you're feelin allright and you're ready for me
I know that I'm ready for you
We better get it on now
Cause we got a whole life to live through.....
And when your body's had enough of me
And I'm layin flat on the floor
When you think I've loved you all I can
I'm gonna love you a little bit more
And when your body's had enough of me
And I'm layin flat out on the floor......

(Shel Silverstein)

I guess the dance is over now
So you just curtsey and I'll bow
And ask the band to play us Auld Lang Syne

Then I'll just take what's left of me
Right back to where it used to be
And you'll go sail your magic carpet, far across the sky

I wish I could have made it
More like the movies for you
Some pretty Technicolor way it's never been
I'm sorry when I kissed you
You only heard me whisper
You never got to hear those violins
Did you girl?
No you never got to hear those violins, no

The castles that you built so high
Were just too steep for me to climb
And I guess these dirty streets of mine
Were just too rough for you

I wish I could've helped you see


Just one of your sweet childhood dreams
But though I tried I could not make not one of them come true

And I wish I could have made it
More like the movies for you
Some pretty Technicolor way it's never been
I'm sorry when I kissed you
You only heard me whisper
You never got to hear those violins
Did you girl?
No you never got to hear those violins

Oh I'm sorry when I kissed you
You only heard me whisper
You never got to hear those violins
No you never got to hear those violins

Who's gonna water my plants?
Who's gonna patch my pants?
And who's gonna give me
The chance to feel brand new?
Who's gonna iron my shirts?
Who's gonna kiss where it hurts?
And who needs a man when
He flirts the way I do?
Who, if not you?
Who, if not you?
Who, if not you?
Tell me, who, if not you?
Who's gonna wake me on time?
Who'll smile and say I look fine?
And who's gonna stay on my mind
The whole day through?
Who's gonna see that I'm fed?
Then who's gonna want me in bed?
But who'll watch TV instead
Because I do?
Who, if not you?
Tell me, who, if not you?
Who...

I've got a couple more years on you, babe,that's all.
I've had more chances to fly and more places to fall.
And it ain't that I'm wiser - it's only that I've spent
more time with my back to the wall.
And I've picked up a couple more years on you, baby, that's all.
I've walked a couple more roads than you, baby ,that's all.
And I'm tired of runnin' while you're only learning to crawl.
And you're headin somewhere , but I've been to somewhere
and found it was nowhere at all.
And I've picked up a couple of years on you baby , that's all.
Now sayin' goodbye, girl don't never come easy at all.
But you've got to fly 'cuz you're hearin' those young eagles call.
And someday when you're older, you'll smile at a man strong and tall.
And you'll say I've got a couple more years on you, baby - that's all.
I've got a couple more years on you baby , that's all.
You'll say I've had more chances to fly and more places to fall.
It ain't that I'm wiser it's only that I've spent
more time with my back to the wall.
And I've picked up a couple more years on you baby, that's all.

Sleeping late, sleeping late

Whenever I sleep late you know I can dream
Some of the strangest things that you've ever seen
I could never tell you the things that I do in my head
Leaving nothing unsaid, sleeping late in my bed

Sleeping late, sleeping late

Sometimes I'm embarrassed by devious thoughts
When I'm undercover let me never get caught
Crazy notions begin with that old devil grin on my face
We're such a disgrace, me and my pillow-case

Sleeping late, sleeping late
Sleeping late, sleeping late

The blissful state of sleeping late has been known to compensate
And sometimes even stimulate
I for one appreciate, sleeping late
Ain't it great sleeping late

Sleeping late, sleeping late

Live and in colour, my wildest of dreams
The best ones are re-runs if you know what I mean
I don't believe I can wait for that clock to stop ringing in my ear
It's so lovely here, I may sleep for a year

Sleeping late, sleeping late
Sleeping late, sleeping late.....

Lay down let's explore this tenderness between us
there ain't no one around at all to see us
and baby would you mind if maybe you and I
took a little time to find each other.
Baby we got all the time in the world
so why don't we just take it nice and slow
we got everything we need to plant a loving seed
and all the time we need to watch it grow.
Stay down, stay at least until the fire stops burning
at least until the room has stopped it's turning
and when the embers dying low we're lying in the afterglow
it'll be as sweet as anything we've known.
Baby we got all the time in the world
so why don't we just take it nice and slow
we got everything we need to plant a loving seed
and all the time we need to watch it grow.

You make my pants want to get up and dance
You make my face want to grin
You make my knees want to kneel down say please
Honey won't you kiss me again

You make my pants want to get up and dance
You make my face want to grin
You make my knees want to kneel down say please
Honey won't you kiss me again

I was a lost and lonely man
Now I get through life the best I can
'Til the day I laid my eye on you
That day I decided what I had to do

You make my pants want to get up and dance
You make my face want to grin
You make my knees want to kneel down say please
Honey won't you kiss me again

Start the music strike up the band
I never done the boogie but I believe I can
Never met a girl half as sweet as you
Nobody's ever moved half the moves you do

You make my pants want to get up and dance
You make my face want to grin
You make my knees want to kneel down say please
Honey won't you kiss me again

You make my pants want to get up and dance
You make my face want to grin
You make my knees want to kneel down say please
Honey won't you kiss me again

When you're in love with a beautiful woman, it's hard;
When you're in love with a beautiful woman, you know it's hard;
Everybody wants her, everybody loves her;
Everybody wants to take your baby home;

When you're in love with a beautiful woman, you watch your friends;
When you're in love with a beautiful woman, it never ends;
You, know that it's crazy and you wanna trust her;
Then somebody hangs up when you answer the phone;

When you're in love with a beautiful woman, you go it alone.
Maybe it's just an ego problem;
Problem is that I've been fooled before;
by fairweather friends and faint hearted lovers;
And every time it happens, it just convinces me more;

When you're in love with a beautiful woman, you watch her eyes;
When you're in love with a beautiful woman, you look for lies;
'Cause everybody tempts her,
everybody tells her she's the most beautiful woman they know;

When you're in love with a beautiful woman, you go it alone.
When you're in love with a beautiful woman, you watch your friends;
When you're in love with a beautiful woman, it never ends;
When you're in love with a beautiful woman, you watch her eyes;

I'm your friend, you can talk to me
I read your face, I see misery
So the one you love has left you dry
Don't start believing that you're gonna die
Just pick your heart up off the floor
And try, try again.....
You'll find better love next time, baby
Don't give up and I know you're gonna find
Better love next time, baby
Someone will be waiting down the line
With better love, better love, better love, better love next time
Sometimes it's better to let it all go
I've been there and I think I should know
So have a good cry, wash out your heart
If you keep it inside it'll tear you apart
Sometimes you lose but you're gonna win
If you just, if you just keep hanging in
Better love next time, baby
Don't give up and I know you're gonna find
Better love next time, baby
Someone will be waiting down the line
With better love, better love.....
Better love next time, baby
Don't give up and I know you're gonna find
Better love next time, baby
Someone will be waiting down the line
With better love, better love.....
Better love next time, baby
Don't give up.....
From: Louise

I was sitting all alone
Watching people get it on
With each other
They were dancin cross the floor
Turning, moving back and forth
They were lovers
One more lonely night for me
I looked up, what did I see?
Sexy eyes, movin cross the floor
Got me wantin more, sexy eyes (sexy)
Sexy eyes, gettin down with you
I want to move with you, sexy eyes
I got up and took your hand
And we both began to dance to the music
Ooh, your magic cast a spell
It didn't take long till we fell
And we knew it
No more lonely nights for me
This is how it's gonna be
Sexy eyes, move across the floor
Got me wantin more, sexy eyes (sexy)
Sexy eyes, gettin down with you
I wanna move with you, sexy eyes
No more lonely nights for me
This is how it's gonna be
Sexy eyes, movin cross the floor
Got me wantin more, sexy eyes (sexy)
Sexy eyes, gettin down with you
I wanna move with you, sexy eyes
Sexy eyes, gettin down with you
I wanna move with you, sexy eyes
Sexy eyes, gettin down with you
I wanna move with you, sexy eyes

Years from now, I want you years from now
And I hold you years from now as I love you tonight
You are my one true friend, always my one true friend
And I love you till Id say as I love you tonight
I know this world that we live in can be hard
Now and then and it will be again
Many times weve been down
Still love has kept us together the flame never dies
When I look in your eyes the future I see
Wanting you years from now
And holding you years from now
And loving you years from now
As I love you tonight
I know this world that we live in can be hard
Now and then and it will be again
Many times weve been down
Still love has kept us together the flame never dies
When I look in your eyes the future I see
Wanting you years from now
And holding you years from now
And loving you years from now
As I love you tonight
