Bryan Adams

things you said to me sentimentally
are always on my mind
seems you harboured me but you set me free
long before you gave me time to escape
the next time i'll be on my way
cuz this time it's true
i'm turning my back on you
don't ya say it - don't say you need me
if you don't mean it - don't even try
don't ya say it - don't say you want me
if you don't mean it - don't say goodbye
you threw love at me indispensably
but you never could give it away
and it seems to me that should never be
that's why i'll never stay with you
you can't hold me down cuz it's my life too
so this time it's true
i'm turning my back on you

I can fool myself for a night
Goin' on
Like I don't need you any more.
That's like walking in the dark.
Tel me now
That you'll give me all your love.
Oh, give me your love give me your love
Or nothing at all nothing at all.
Oh, give me your love.
I've been everywhere and here I go again
Looking out for me and
Leaving you behind.
But let me hold you just one time.
So will you give me your love,
I'll know that you'll be mine.
Oh, give me your love give me your love
Or nothing at all nothing at all
Oh, give me your love

i'm riding in the middle
halfway into you
and halfway into something else
i don't know what to do
you said you make it easy
you said you'd take the time
but you called it off before
i changed my mind
you're not decided
you're only hidin from love
you can't deny
it you're only hidin from love
well i've been makin changes
but you've been changin too
you were hopin
love was somethin else
i was hopin it was you
you said you make it easy babe
you said you'd take the time
but you called it off before
i changed my mind
you're not decided
you're only hidin from love
you can't deny it
you're only hidin from love
i know you tried but
you're only hidin from love
you say you're shy but
you're only hidin from love

you're not decided
you're only hidin from love
you can't deny it
you're only hidin from love
i know you tried but
you're only hidin from love
you say you're shy but
you're only hidin from love
you're not decided
you're only hidin from love
you can't deny it
you're only hidin from love

Pardon me,
Have you got the time
To let me say hello.
Couldn't help but see
That you look like a lady I used to know
A long time ago.
Remember the time we spent together.
Remember the days I dreamt forever.
Remember the nights we stayed together.
Whatever I do I still remember.
It's hard to believe
That I held her up
And then she let me down.
Someone's sayin' to me
That she broke my heart and left me
Spinnin' round and round and round.
Remember the time we spent together.
Remember the days I dreamt forever.
Remember the nights we stayed together.
Whatever I do I still remember

Remember the time we spent together.
Remember the days I dreamt forever.
Remember the nights we stayed together.
Whatever I do I still remember.
Remember the time we spent together.
Remember the days I dreamt forever.
Remember the nights we stayed together.
Whatever I do I still remember.

I know that you're curious,
So don't be serious,
You know there's no cause for alarm.
When you're down - out
Left here in doubt,
All the things that are right will go wrong.
Love is a state of mind,
It's keepin' us both alive,
Sometimes it's hard to find.
Love's in a state of mind.
Wait just a minute,
You know that it's finished,
So don't you go carry it on.
Cause I'm down - out
Left here in doubt,
Well, we try but we can't get along.
Love is a state of mind,
It's keepin' us both alive,
Sometimes it's hard to find.
Love's in a state of mind

Ooh Try to see it my way
Ooh Try to see it my way
Well I know you cover up
From all the things you did
That tied you up
Just wanna let you know
That I wanna keep you warm
Until the sun warms up the dark
So move in a little closer
Then you can think it over
Just try to see it my way
Think it over
Just try to see it my way
Well you said you needed time
for all the things
That run around your mind
How can I let you know
That I wanna keep you warm
Until the sun warms up the dark
So move in a little closer
Then you can think it over
Try to see it my way
Think it over
Try to see it my way
Think it over
Try to see it my way my way
Think it over
Just Try to see it my way

Ooh Try to see it my way
Think it over
Try to see it my way
baby baby baby
Think it over
Just Try to see it my way
Think it over
Just Try to see it my way
Try to see it my way
Think it over
Just Try to see it my way my way

There you go looking cool
Writing rules
For your theories of romance
I know that you doubt me
But without me
You'd be tearing off
your one chance
Wait and see
This could be
the last time for me
Baby just wait and see
All the times
I came running back
Down the path
of the least resistance
I felt my body
Was just a hobby
For your heart's indifference
Wait and see
This could be
the last time for me
Now baby can't you wait and see
Just you wait and see
Just you wait and see
Just you wait and see

Wait and see
This could be
the last time for me
Baby, just wait and see
I've been trapped
by your innocence
Haven't seen you since
You caught me baby
Shot down by the one I love
Now I'm taking off
With the things you taught me
Wait and see
This could be
the last time for me
Now baby can't you wait and see
Just you wait and see
Just you wait and see
Just you wait and see
can't you wait and see
Wait and see
Just you wait and see
Now baby can't you wait and see

Could have been a winner
Should have taken me
It was so damn cold
I shoulda held ya
Cause you were shakin me
Well I almost had a question
When she led me home
I spent too much time
for one night
Bein alone
She said you're wastin time
You're takin a chance on me
You're wastin time
You're takin a chance on me

Should have got the rambler
Back seat movie for two
I spent too much time
for one night
Bein alone with you
Should have seen her daddy
Case he said she had to go
I spent too much time
for one night
Bein all alone
She said you're wastin time
You're takin a chance on me
You're wastin time
You're takin a chance on me

You're wastin time
You're takin a chance on me
You're wastin time
You're takin a chance on me
You're wastin time
You're takin a chance on me
You're wastin time
You're takin a chance on me

Now you know
That I stood outside your window
Just a little too long.
What you're gonna do
When the hours pass away
And you know that I'm gone.
Well, it may be a week,
It may be a day,
I'm six blocks over
And I don't know what to say to you.
Jokin' 'bout your mama
Went a little too far.
But you caught me
Out with the others
Till the early dawn.
There may be a time
If we played it right
I'm six blocks over
And you wanna spend a night with me.
Now the hours and the minutes
Just fly away.
You win some and you lose some,
You gotta get it right
Or I'll be saying
Bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye.
Thinkin' back to
The way you're holdin' me down,
I'd be better off dead.
Now you know
That the time is running out
Of the things we said.
Well, it may be a week,
It may be a day,
I'm six blocks over
And I don't know what to say to you.
Now the hours and the minutes
Just fly away.
You win some and you lose some,
You gotta get it right
Or I'll be saying
Bye bye bye bye

All those nights I've spent alone
Uninspired so tired and wasted
There's lots of times
I'd have telephoned
I couldn't find the words to say
I'm coming home
Lord I'm coming home
I'll make it short
I'll make it sweet
Make it up to you and me
I'm not the same guy I used to be
What can I do to make you believe
I'm coming home
Oh I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Yeah I'm coming home
Only seems like yesterday
You and I were sayin' goodbye
Now I'm just a few miles away
Gonna see you tonight

I've been alone and I live the pain
Reach for you in desperation
I was wrong I'll take the blame
I need you back now
I just can't wait
I'm coming home
Yeah I'm coming home
Coming home

I'm just coming home

Now you took your love from me,
When I needed it most,
I wanted you so desperately,
So baby,
Don't look now cause I'm comin' around,
Baby don't look now cause I'm comin' around.

You planned it all so carefully,
You just faded to black,
And even in your wildest dreams,
You never thought I'd be back
So you thought you'd seen the last of me,
Now ya better think twice,
You can't fool me that easily,
Now baby,

Don't look now cause I'm comin' around,
Baby don't look now cause I'm comin' around.

You planned it all so carefully,
You just faded to black,
And even in your wildest dreams,
You never thought I'd be back.

So you thought you'd seen the last of me,
Now ya better think twice,
You can't fool me that easily, Now baby,

Don't look now cause I'm comin' around,
Baby don't look now cause I'm comin' around

Well in the air for the world today yeah.
Five O'Clock and those walls are slowly closin'.
You get home so down and worn out, thunderstruck.
Yeah fits you good,
Oh fits you good.
Yeah fits you good, Oh.

Closin' time you were bringin' me down,
Well I know it's just the way you live your life.
But you don't know like I know better,
I did all that I could. Now it

Fits you good,
Yeah fits you good.
Oh fits you good, Oh.
But you don't know what I know,
I did all that I could. Now

Jealousy

I can't complain about the way we've tried
So maybe it's the time to say good-bye
Not gonna look around
I'm just gonna look away

Don't put the reasons back in my head
You said you loved me now you left me for dead
Oh, I just can't stand it this way

Oh oh jealousy coming over me
It's that jealousy breaking my heart
Oh oh jealousy taking control of me
Now you just gotta know - that I can't let go
And it's time that you knew - I can't stop loving you

You say I'm a sentimental fool
But all I try to do is go with you
Not gonna look around I'm just gonna look away

It's been a battle since you broke my heart
I tell you now that it's been coming down hard
Oh I just can't stand another day

Oh oh jealousy coming over me
It's that jealousy breaking my heart
Jealousy, I'm so jealous

Well you take it all for granted,
So it should come as no surprise,
That your big balloon is gonna burst,
Right before your eyes.

Well you always call your mama,
Just for sympathy yeah,
But I tried to show you years ago,
So don't come crying to me.
Now it's your last chance the night is over,
Last chance for love,
Well you can blame it on the bosanova,
You can't blame me when I'm gone.
Well you call me up for favours,
You say that it's my turn,
Well I think I'll stand on my hard earned drive,
And watch your bridges burn.

Well I saw my Guardian Angel,
He said I can refuse,
Well I'd take the chance but it's hard to dance,
With size 8 concrete shoes.

Well you take it all for granted,
So it should come as no surprise,
That your big balloon is gonna burst,
Right before your eyes

Will you risk your reputation?
I don't know.
You just don't know what you're sayin'
Anymore.

You know beggers can't be chosers,
And that's fair.
When we win we may be losers,
I don't care, no no no.
Baby, I just can't stand another lonely night,
So come over and save me,
Save me from another lonely night.
I hear every word you're sayin'
They're all lies.
But with every breath you're takin'
You're thinkin' of ways to say good night

Everything's been said, A hundred times
Everything's been said, A hunderd times

Then I know, if I know you
It takes one more time
No one holds the night,
The way you do
No one holds the night
The way you do
Then I know, If I know you
It takes one more night

No one makes it right
Like you do Like you do
No one makes it right
Like you do Like you do
No one makes it right like you

I guess you're moving out
So you say
I guess you're moving out
So you say
Oh I know if I know you
I've got no more saying

No one makes it right
Like you do Like you do
No one makes it right
Like you do Like you do
No one makes it right like you

I said it once
I said it always

I've got one hand on the door,
One hand in my pocket,
The world is on my shoulders,
And I'm tryin' to get to you.
I'm gettin' pretty worried,
Now that Ronnie's in the office,
I shouldn't let it get to me,
There's nothin' I can do.

Think that you should know by now,
You've done the damage now it can't be changed,
So give me one good reason,
One good reason to stay.

Well I knew that you were sleepin'
And I didn't want to wake you,
Cause this troubled look I got,
Might make you change your mind.

There's no need for compensation,
There's no reason to foresake me,
I was looking for the answers,
But there's nothin' here to find

Who are you gonna run to,
Now your ass is on the line.
Who do you think you're foolin'
We ain't got the time.
Don't try to tell me,
Who's wrong or right.
Don't say that I
There's no point in tryin' to change it at all.

Tonight, tonight,
Let's leave it alone,
Leave it alone tonight,
We can't change it at all.
Forget the things I told you,
Let's just sleep on it for now.
It's your misunderstanding,
I don't wanna hear you out.

Two wrongs baby,
They don't make a right.
It's hardly worth the heartache,
Let's leave it alone, leave it alone

I think I told you maybe once or twice before,
They'll only hold you down,
leave you wanting more.
But you refuse to listen, babe,
so this is where you'll stay,
If you weren't so bloody juvenile,
you'd be some where today.
If you want it, you got it,
If you want it, you got it,
If you want it, you got it now.

You think you want a break but I got news for you,
I think it's time you start believing your reviews.
Stood me up and shot me down so many times before,
But dropping names and playing games won't get you through my door.

If you want it, you got it,
If you want it, you got it,
If you want it, you got it now

Woke up lyin' on the floor

Can't recall the night before

Oh-another day

Outside it's cold and damp

Unemployment cheque is spent

Yeah-another day

Some people never know

You can't just let it go

Or try and work it out some other way

Some people never learn

My life ain't their concern

And nothin's gonna change come what may

Had a job but it fell through

Landlord says the rent is due

Oh-another day

They say the best in life is free

But if you don't pay then you don't eat

Oh-another day

I guess I'll never know

You can't just let it go

Or try to work it out some other way

Some people never learn

Their life ain't my concern

Ain't nothin' gonna change come what may

Grass looks greener on the other side

But I can't get there my hands are tied

And if I do don't be surprised

Oh-gotta figure it out another day

Some other time
Some other place
We might not of bin here
Standin' face to face

I just wanna tell ya
Made up my mind
You know I can't help the way I feel inside

Oh this heart's on fire
Right from the start it's bin burnin' for you
Oh this heart's on fire
One thing honey - this heart's true

The streets are empty
The lights are down
Ain't nothin' movin'
This side of town

So come on over
I ain't hard to please
Oh baby - what you get ain't always what you need

Oh this heart's on fire
It's getting hotter now can't you see
Oh this heart's on fire
From now on babe it's gonna be you and me

Risin' to my feet I can feel the heat
It's tryin' to pull me under
Runnin' through the night I can make it right
Its comin' on like thunder

Some got it good some got it bad
But you're the best I ever had
I never worry you're so fine
From now on babe I'm gonna be by your side

I was caught in the crossfire of a silent scream
Where one man's nightmare is another man's dream
Pull the cover up high - and pray for the mornin' light
Cause you're livin' alone - in the heat of the night

Met a man with a message from the other side
Couldn't take the pressure - had to leave it behind
He said it's up to you
You can run or you can fight (Ya that's right)
Better leave it alone - in the heat of the night

In the heat of the night they'll be comin' around
There'll be lookin' for answers they'll be chasin' you down
In the heat of the night
(Where ya gonna hide when it all comes down)
(Don't look back don't ever turn around)

Had to pay the piper to call the tune
Said he'd be back someday - said he'd be back real soon
Pull the shades down low - you'll know when the time is right
When you're lyin' alone in the heat of the night

When I was younger
My life was torn asunder
And I was carried far away

Now somewhere in the distance
I feel a strange insistence
I long to be there once again

The day is drawing nearer
The time has come to leave here
The feeling just keeps gettin' stronger every day

So I pray for the moment when I'll be with you
And all that we hoped for is all comin' true
When the time we've spent waitin' is finally through
I'll be home again

I can still remember
Days that never ended
Standin' on a distant shore

With every raindrop fallin'
I hear the thunder callin'
Like so many times before

Sometimes in the darkness
I hear what my heart says
Maybe one day I'll know what that feelin's for

So I wait for the moment when I'll be with you
And all that we hoped for is all comin' true
When the time is spent waitin' is finally through
I'll be home again

When you're out there on your own
It can chill you to the bone
There's a cold wind blowin'
But it feels good knowin'
The worst is over now - I'm finally goin' home

It's gettin' stronger
Can't wait any longer

Life-thin as a thread

Sometimes you're lucky

Sometimes you're better off dead

Your first breath is taken and in to the world you are cast

You long for tomorrow while living each day as your last

Well I know what your heart desires

But you can't take it with you

Into the fire

Now you've done all you can

Your life's at the crossroads

You watch as it slips through your hands

So stand on the mountain and shout in vain at the sky

But nobody hears you-the words only echo inside

Oh shelter the flame-it may expire

Risin' up from the ashes

Into the fire

Just hold on to your life down to the wire

Oh out from the dragon's jaws

Into the fire

There's a moment in every man's life

When he must decide what is wrong and what's right

You could wait for your dreams to come true

But time has no mercy

Time won't stand still for you

Well I know what your heart desires

Crawlin' out from the wreckage

Into the fire

Here I go...into the fire

I know...what your heart desires

I've seen many moons through these wrinkled eyes

The years have made me old but they've made me wise

Now the white man lives where our rivers run

For now better days have passed

We walk the streets of broken glass

Our people vanished as snow before the summer sun

Like dogs we were driven from this place

Such injustice, time will not erase

All these changes cannot be undone

When you feel the anger inside of you

Hold your head high-let your aim be true

Though your heart beats like a drum

My native son

Once there was a time my little one

Before the wagons-before the soldiers' guns

When this land was ours as far as the eagle flies

No white flag-no broken truce

With few words one can speak the truth-I don't hear it

Time won't heal it now

With each new day that comes to pass

Will the great spirit free us all at last?

He said we were the chosen ones

For all we had there's nothin' left

We won't forgive-we can't forget

You know that your day will come

My native son

With each new day that comes to pass

Will the great spirit free us all at last?

What has happened can never be undone

When I was young-not yet a man

The sun rose and set upon our land

We were the chosen ones

My native son

When the pressure's on and you're all alone

Take a little ride into the danger zone

When the moon is up and the skies are clear

Just show me a sign and we'll be outa here

Take me up on a wing and a prayer

If you need a friend you know I'll be there

Hound dogs howlin' all through the night

Eight miles high and I'm doin' alright

Better move over 'cause you're goin' too slow

I feel the need for freedom now it's time to go

It's a fine line between pleasure and pain

Let your conscience be your guide 'til we meet again

Your time has come- you can stand or you can run

But don't keep it all inside

Cause you gotta understand that there ain't no second chance

No-one gets outa here alive-only the strong survive

Tearin' it up goin' down the track

Gonna fly so high, I might never come back

If things get tough you can count me in

Cause if you play the game you gotta play to win

Take me up where only angels can fly

If you need a helpin' hand

I won't pass you by

Your time has come-you can stand or you can run

But don't keep it all inside

Cause you gotta understand that there ain't no second chance

No-one gets outa here alive-only the strong survive

Take me up on a wing and a prayer

If you need someone you know I'll be there

Your time has come-you can stand or you can run

But don't keep it all inside

Cause you gotta understand that there ain't no second chance

No-one gets outa here alive

Only the strong survive

Only the strong survive

Well I'm doin' what I can-you gotta understand

Only the strong survive

He made his way back to the old town

And everything looked just the same

The shops and the schools and the factories were there

But somehow the faces had changed

So he went for a walk in the high street

Took his coat off and rolled up his sleeves

He thought of his father and his father before him

And how he was the first one to leave

Well he didn't come here for forgiveness

There isn't a lot they can say

Cause I remember the reasons he first ran away

He's a rebel

Just a rebel

Got his back to the wall fight 'til he falls

He's a rebel

Don't ever look back-don't surrender

The old men say they've seen it before

Oh they drink their beer and they talk about friends

Who didn't come back from the war

Don't say he's too young to remember

Don't tell him what's wrong or what's right

Just give him a chance to get out there and fight

He's a rebel

Just a rebel

All the battles are won

But he's still on the run

He's a rebel

When it comes time for leavin'

Don't stand in my way

There's nothin' left for me here

Gonna run, run away

In the morning he walks past the old house

In the rain under grey northern sky

There's a new coat of paint on the front garden gate

But there's more there than first meets the eye

For a moment he stands undecided

Looking back on the days of his youth

As two worlds collide in a moment of truth

He's a rebel

For our king and our country and the promise of glory

We came from Kingston and Brighton to fight on the front line

Just lads from the farms and boys from the cities

Not meant to be soldiers we lay in the trenches

We'd face the fighting with a smile-or so we said

If only we had known what danger lay ahead

The sky turned to grey as we went into battle

On the fields of Europe young men were fallin'

I'll be back for you someday-it won't be long

If I can just hold on 'til this bloody war is over

The guns will be silent on Remembrance Day

There'll be no more fighting on Remembrance Day

By October of '18

Cambrai had fallen

Soon the war would be over and we'd be returnin'

Don't forget me while I'm gone far away

Well it won't be long 'till I'm back there in your arms again

One day soon-I don't know when

You know we'll all be free and the bells of peace will ring again

The time will come for you and me

We'll be goin' home when this bloody war is ended

The guns will be silent on Remembrance Day

We'll all say a prayer on Remembrance Day

On Remembrance Day-say a little prayer

On Remembrance Day

Well the guns will be silent

There'll be no more fighting

Oh we'll lay down our weapons

On Remembrance Day

Livin' on your own can be a lonely game

A face in the crowd no one knows your name

It's a table for one and a broken heart to go

She's the kind of lover that you always dreamed

Would come to stay and never wanna leave

But that's all changed she's dealt the final blow

Heaven knows what you were thinkin' of

Don't blame yourself you're just a victim of love

It doesn't matter who was right or wrong

When the fire is over when the magic's gone

You pick up the pieces and do the best you can

It knocks you down but you try it again

You get a little older it's a cryin' shame

Sometimes things don't work out like you plan

Who's gonna help when you've had enough

It ain't no secret you're a victim of love

Heaven knows what you were thinkin' of

Don't blame yourself you're just a victim of love

One goodbye was really all it took

Now you thumb through the pages of your little black book

But somehow all the numbers look the same

You've been thinkin' how to get around it

But there ain't nothin' you can do about it

Nothin' ventured nothin' gained

Ain't nothin' you can't rise above

Call it what you want but you're a victim of love

Who's gonna help you when you've had enough

Ain't no secret you're a victim of love

I don't wanna lose your love...

Out of all the reindeer you know you're the mastermind
Run, run Rudolph, Randalph's not too far behind
Run, run Rudolph, Santa's got to make it to town
Randalph he can hurry, he can take the freeway down
And away went Rudolph a whizzing like a merry-go-round

Said Santa to a boy child "What have you been longing for?"
"All I want for Christmas is a Rock and Roll electric guitar"
And away went Rudolph a whizzing like a shooting star

Run, run Rudolph, Santa's got to make it to town
Can't you make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
And away went Rudolph a whizzing like a merry-go-round

Said Santa to a girl child "What would you like most to get?"
"I want a little baby doll that can cry, scream and wet"
And away went Rudolph a whizzing like a Saber jet

Run, run Rudolph, run, run Rudolph, a running like a son-of-a-gun.

Well I hardly knew ya baby
And you were comin' on
Mama told me there'd be days like these
I shoulda known better maybe
Woulda seen right through ya
I needed you like a disease

Chorus

I ain't gonna cry over you
You're a mystery
I ain't gonna cry over you
You're history - history

You said you'd wait forever
But I know your type
The lights are on but on-one's home
I changed my number maybe
You better change your mind
Cause I'd rather spend the night alone

Chorus

Chorus

I ain't your kinda guy
So forget about me
Cause I ain't too shy to say what I'm thinkin' - hit it
I got reckless baby
Put you in your place
Next time maybe re-arrange your face

Oh~ thinkin` about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now nothin` can take you away from me
We`ve been down that road before
But that`s over now
You keep me comin` back for more
Baby you`re all that I want
When you`re lyin` here in my arms
I`m findin` it hard to believe
We`re in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it here in your heart
It isn`t too hard to see
We`re in heaven
instrumental break
Oh~ once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when you`re feelin` down
yeah~~ nothin` could change what you mean to me
Oh~ there`s lots that I could say
But just hold me now
Cause our love will light the way
Baby you`re all that I want
When you`re lyin` here in my arms
I`m findin` it hard to believe
We`re in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it here in your heart
It isn`t too hard to see
We`re in heaven
I`ve been waitin` for so long
For somethin` to arrive
For love to come along
Now our dreams are comin` true
Through the good times and the bad
I`ll be standin` there by you oh~~
instrumental break
Baby you`re all that I want
When you`re lyin` here in my arms
I`m findin` it hard to believe
We`re in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it here in your heart
It isn`t too hard to see
We`re in heaven , heaven ooh~~
you`re all that I want, you`re all that I need
instrumental break
We`re in heaven We`re in heaven We`re in heaven

Kids Wanna Rock

Turned on the radio
Sounded like a disco
Musta turned the dial for a couple of miles
But I couldn't find no rock 'n roll

This computerized crap ain't gettin' me off
Everywhere I go the kids wanna rock

London to L.A.
Talkin' 'bout the new wave
For a couple of bucks you get a weird haircut
And waste your life away

Around the world or around the block
Everywhere I go the kids wanna rock

Get me my D.J.
I got somethin' he's gotta play
Wanna hear it I can't wait
So turn it up, turn it up...

Kick down the barricades
Listen to what the kids say
From time to time people change their minds
But the music is here to stay

I've seen it all from the bottom to the top
Everywhere I go kids wanna rock

Around the world or around the block
Everywhere I go the kids wanna rock
Everywhere I go the kids wanna rock

Long Gone

The telephone's bin ringin'
Ringin' off the wall
It's your Las Vegas lawyer
Another long distance call
He says you get the house and the car
And I get the clothes I got on

Chorus

Now she's gone
Long, long, long, long gone
Now I'm a happy boy
She's long, long, long, long gone

Operator get me Manhattan
Get my baby on the line
Sooner or later she's gotta realize
That all my feelin's were for real
But maybe she was leadin' me on

Chorus

She took the Frigidair
She got my favourite chair
You could say she got the best of me
It's like a legal crime
But in a matter of time
She'll be back for the rest of me

You're the silent type
And you caught my eye
But I never thought that I'd be touchin' you
How was I to know
I'd let my feelin's go
And that I'd be yours before the night was through

Chorus

One night love affair
Tryin' to make like we don't care
We were both reachin' out for somethin'
One night love affair
Pretendin' it ain't there
Oh - and now we're left with nothin'

When the mornin' breaks
We go our separate ways
If the night was made for love it ain't for keeps
But I lose control
As I watch you go
All my senses say I'm in this much too deep
Now you're outta reach

Chorus

Solo

Chorus

Run To You

She says her love for me could never die
But that'd change if she ever found out about you and I
Oh - but her love is cold
It wouldn't hurt her if she didn't know, 'cause...
When it gets too much
I need to feel your touch

Chorus

I'm gonna run to you
I'm gonna run to you
Cause when the feelin's right I'm gonna run all night
I'm gonna run to you

She's got a heart of gold she'd never let me down
But you're the one that always turns me on
You keep me comin' 'round
I know her love is true
But it's so damn easy makin' love to you
I got my mind made up
I need to feel your touch

Monday mornin' - it's time to get up
Two cups of coffee and she runs for the bus
Looks in the window and fixes her hair
Nobody notices and nobody cares

She admits it ain't no kinda life
Workin' 9 to 5 you know...

She's only happy when she's dancin'
There ain't no place she'd rather be
When she's dancin'
Just her heart and her soul and her fantasies

When Friday evenin' finally rolls around
She grabs a taxi and she heads uptown
Goes to a place they call "The Ball And Chain"
Nothin' matters until Monday so she goes insane

Well it's a bitch tryin' to make ends meet
But that's the way the story goes

She's only happy when she's dancin'
There ain't nothin' makes her feel so free
When she's dancin'
The girl's outrageous and it's plain to see

Solo

She ain't got much but she got independence
Ya - she's doin' alright
His eyes are on her as the evenin's endin'
But she ain't goin' for no mystery
Because nobody rides for free

She's only happy when she's dancin'
Dancin' - there ain't no place she'd rather be
When she's dancin'
Just her heart and her soul and her fantasies - dancin

I bin lookin' for someone
Between the fire and the flame
We're all lookin' for somethin'
To ease the pain

Now who can you turn to
When it's all black 'n' white
And the winners are losers
You see it every night

I need somebody
Somebody like you
Everybody needs somebody

I need somebody
Hey what about you
Everybody needs somebody

When you're out on the front line
And you're watchin' them fall
Doesn't take long to realize
It ain't worth fightin' for

I thought I saw the Madonna
When you walked in the room
And your eyes were like diamonds
And they cut right through - Oh they cut right through

I need somebody
Somebody like you
Everybody needs somebody

I need somebody
Hey what about you
We all need somebody

Another night another lesson learned
It's the distance that keeps us sane
But when the silence leads to sorrow
We do it all again - all again

I need somebody
Somebody like you
Everybody needs somebody

I need somebody
Hey what about you
Everybody needs somebody

I got my first real six-string,
Bought it at the five-and-dimes,
Played it till my fingers bled,
It was the summer of '69.
Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard.
Jimmy quit and Jodie got married,
I shoulda know we'd never get far.

Oh, when I look back now,
And if I had the choice,
Yeah, I'd always wanna be there,
Those were the best days of my life.

Ain't no use in complainin'
When you've got a job to do,
Spent my evening's down at the drive-in,
And that's where I met you.

Standin' at your mama's porch,
You told me that you'd wait forever,
And when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never,
Those were the best days of my life.
Back in teh summer of '69.
Man, we were killin' time,
We were young and restless,
We needed to unwind.
I guess nothin' can last forever,
Forever, no.

And now the times are a-changin'
Look at everything that's come and gone.
Every time I play that old six-string,
Think about you, wonder what went wrong.

Standin' by your mama's porch,
You told me it would last forever.
Oh, the way you held my hand,
I knew that it was now or forever.
Those were the best days of my life.

Back in the summer of '69.

Look into my eyes you will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart
search your soul
And when you find me
there you'll search no more
Don't tell me it's not
worth tryin' for
You can't tell me it's not
worth dyin' for
You know it's true
Everything I do
I do it for you

Look into my heart
you will find
There's nothin' there to hide
Take me as I am
take my life
I would give it all
I would sacrifice
Don't tell me it's not
worth fightin' for
I can't help it
there's nothin' I want more
Ya know it's true
Everything I do
I do it for you
There's no love
like your love
And no other
could give more love
There's nowhere
unless you're there
All the time all the way

Oh you can't tell me
it's not worth tryin' for
I can't help it
there's nothin' I want more
I would fight for you
I'd lie for you
Walk the wire for you
ya I'd die for you
Ya know it's true Everything I do
I do it for you

You might stop a hurricane
Might even stop the drivin' rain
You might have a dozen other guys
But if you wanna stop me baby - don't even try
I'm goin' one way - your way
It's such a strong way - let's make it our way
Chorus

Can't stop this thing we started
You gotta know it's right
Can't stop this course we've plotted
This thing called love we got it
No place for the brokenhearted
Can't stop this thing we started - no way
I'm goin' your way!

You might stop the world spinnin' round
Might even walk on holy ground
I ain't Superman and I can't fly
But if you wanna stop me baby - don't even try
I'm goin' one way - your way
It's such a strong way - let's make it our way

Chorus

Oh - why take it slow
I gotta know
Nothing can stop this thing that we got

Drivin' home this evenin'

Coulda sworn we had it all worked out

You had this boy believin' way beyond a shadow of a doubt

Then I heard it on the street

I heard ya might of found somebody new

Well who is he baby - who is he and tell me what he means to you

I took it for granted - but how was I to know

That you'd be lettin' go

Now it cuts like a knife - but it feels so right

It cuts like a knife - but it feels so right

There's times I've bin mistaken

There's times I've thought I've bin misunderstood

So wait a minute darlin' - can't you see we did the best we could

This wouldn't be the first time - that things have gone astray

Now you've thrown it all away

Now it cuts like a knife - but it feels so right It cuts like a knife - but it feels so right

Rescue me from the mire

Whisper words of desire

Rescue me - darlin' rescue me

With your arms open wide

Want you here by my side

Come to me - darlin' rescue me

When this world's closin' in

There's no need to pretend

Set me free - darlin' rescue me

I don't wanna let you go

So I'm standin' in your way

I never needed anyone like I'm needin' you today

Do I have to say the words?

Do I have to tell the truth?

Do I have to shout it out?

Do I have to say a prayer?

Must I prove to you - how good we are together?

Do I have to say the words?

Rescue me from despair

Tell me you will be there

Help me please - darlin' rescue me

Every dream that we share

Every cross that we bear

Can't you see - darlin' rescue me

I don't wanna let you go

So I'm standin' in your way

I never needed anyone like I'm needin' you today

Do I have to say the words?

Do I have to tell the truth?

Do I have to shout it out?

Do I have to say a prayer?

Must I prove to you - how good we are together?

Do I have to say the words?

I was caught in the crossfire of a silent scream

Where one man's nightmare is another man's dream

Pull the cover up high - and pray for the mornin' light

Cause you're livin' alone - in the heat of the night

Met a man with a message from the other side

Couldn't take the pressure - had to leave it behind

He said it's up to you

You can run or you can fight (Ya that's right)

Better leave it alone - in the heat of the night

In the heat of the night

They'll be comin' around

There'll be lookin' for answers

They'll be chasin' you down

In the heat of the night

(Where ya gonna hide when it all comes down)

(Don't look back don't ever turn around)

Had to pay the piper to call the tune

Said he'd be back someday - said he'd be back real soon

Pull the shades down low - you'll know when the time is right

When you're lyin' alone in the heat of the night

Oh! Thinkin'' about
all our younger years
우리의 젊은 시절을 생각해 봐요.
There was only you and me
그대와 함께한 추억만이 가득합니다.
We were young and wild and free
우린 젊었고 거칠었고 자유로왔죠.
Now Nothing can take you away from me
이제는 그 무엇도 나에게서
그대를 앗아갈수 없어요
We''ve been down that road before
예전엔 방황도 많이 했었지만
But that''s over now
지금은 모두 지난 얘기지요
You keep me comin'' back for more
당신이 나를 제자리로 올수있게 인도했어요

Baby you''re all that I want
그대는 내가 원하는 모든 것이에요.
When you''re lyin'' here in my arms
지금 당신이 내 팔에 안겨 누워있는 걸
I''m findin'' it hard to believe
We''re in Heaven
우리가 지금 천국에 있단 느낌을
쉽게 믿을 수가 없어요
And love is all that I need
그리고 사랑만이 필요합니다.
And I found it there in your heart
그리고 난 당신의 가슴 속에서,
바로 거기서 그걸 발견했죠.
It isn''t too hard to see
그건 알기가 그리 어려운 게 아니죠.
We''re in Heaven
우린 지금 천국에 있다는걸요

Oh! Once in your life
오! 당신의 생에서 단 한번
you find someone
Who will turn your world around
당신은 당신의 세상을 보여줄 누군가를 발견했고
Bring you up when you''re feelin'' down
당신이 침체되어 있을 때
당신을 북돋아 줄 누군가를 발견한 거에요.
Yeah! Nothin'' could change
what you mean to me
그래요. 아무것도 당신이
내게 의미하는 걸 바꿀 순 없어요.
Oh! there''s lots that I could say
오! 내가 할 수 있는 말은 너무도 많지만
Just hold me now
지금 그저 날 안아 주세요.
''Cause our love will light the way
왜냐면 우리의 사랑이 길을 밝혀줄테니...

I''ve been waitin'' for so long
For somethin'' to arrive
나는 너무도 오랫동안을 뭔가가 오길 기다려왔어요.
For love to come along
함께 올 사랑을 기다려 왔지요.
Now our dreams are comin'' true
지금 우리의 꿈은 실현되고 있어요.
Through the good times and the bad
비록 좋은 때도 있고 안 좋은 때도 있지만.
Yeah! I''ll be standin'' there by you
그래요. 난 당신 곁에, 바로 거기에 서 있을 거에요.
You''re all that I want
당신은 내가 원한 모든 것이고
You''re all that I need
당신은 내가 필요한 모든 것이에요

When the feelin' is ended
There ain't no use pretendin'
Don't ya worry - It's only love

When your world has been shattered
Ain't nothin' else matters
It ain't over - It's only love
And that's all - yeah

When your heart has been broken
Hard words have been spoken
It ain't easy - but it's only love

And your life ain't worth livin'
And you're ready to give in
Just remember - that it's only love

You can live without the aggravation
Ya gotta wanna win - ya gotta wanna win
You keep lookin' back in desperation
Over and over and over again

When your world has been shattered
Ain't nothin' else matters
It ain't over - It's only love

And if your life ain't worth livin'
And you're ready to give in
Just remember - that it's only love
Ya - that's all

Ya it ain't easy baby
But it's only love - and that's all

Turned on the radio

Musta turned the dial for a couple of miles

But I couldn't find no rock n' roll

This computerized crap ain't gettin' me off

And waste your life away

Wanna hear it I can't wait So turn it up - turn it up...

Kick down the barricades

From time to time people change their minds

But the music is here to stay

I've seen it all from the bottom to the top

Everywhere I go - the kids wanna rock

Around the world or around the block

Everywhere I go - the kids wanna rock

Everywhere I go - the kids wanna rock

While my imagination's runnin' wild

Yeah - things are getting clearer

This time everything is all right

No way she's gonna get away

This time everything is easy

Any day - I'm gonna make her mine

I've thought of every word I'd say

But she turns and slowly walks away

What am I supposed to do

Hey - turn up your radio

Oh - there's somethin' I want you to know

This time everything is all right

No way she's gonna get away

This time everything is easy

Any day - I'm gonna make her mine

And I've waited a long time

But the feelin's right and darlin' one of these nights

Yeah - I'm gonna let you know

No way she's gonna get away

This time everything is easy

Any day - I'm gonna make her mine

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Just cryin' all the time
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit and you ain't no friend of mine

* Repeat

** Repeat

Well they said you was high classed
Well, that was just a lie
Yeah! they said you was high classed
Well, that was just a lie
Girl you ain't never caught a rabbit and you ain't no friend of mine

* Repeat

Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit and you ain't no friend of mine

Drivin' home this evening
I coulda sworn we had it all worked out
You had this boy believin'
Way beyond the shadow of a doubt

Then I heard it on the street
I heard you mighta found somebody new
Well who is he baby - who is he
And tell me what he means to you

I took it all for granted
But how was I to know
That you'd be letting go

Now it cuts like a knife
But it feels so right
It cuts like a knife
But it feels so right

There's times I've 'bin mistaken
There's times I thought I'd 'bin misunderstood
So wait a minute darlin'
Can't you see we did the best we could

This wouldn't be the first time
Things have gone astray
Now you've thrown it all away

Now it cuts like a knife
But It feels so right
It cuts like a knife
But it feels so right

Some other time
Some other place
We might not 've 'bin here
Standin' face to face

I just wanna tell ya
Made up my mind
You know I can't help the way I feel inside

Oh this heart's on fire
Right from the start it's bin burnin' for you
Oh this heart's on fire
One thing honey - this heart's true

The streets are empty
The lights are down
Ain't nothin' movin'
This side of town

So come on over
I ain't hard to please
Oh baby - what you get ain't always what you need

Oh this heart's on fire
It's gettin' hotter now can't you see
Oh this heart's on fire
From now on babe it's gonna be you and me

Risin' to my feet I can feel the heat
It's tryin' to pull me under
Runnin' through the night we can make it right
It's comin' on like thunder

Some got it good some got it bad
But you're the best I ever had
I never worry you're so fine
From now on babe I'm gonna be by your side

I was caught in the crossfire of a silent scream
Where one man's nightmare is another man's dream
Pull the cover up high - and pray for the mornin' light
Cause you're livin' alone - in the heat of the night

Met a man with a message from the other side
Couldn't take the pressure - had to leave it behind
He said it's up to you
You can run or you can fight (Ya that's right)
Better leave it alone - in the heat of the night

In the heat of the night they'll be comin' around
There'll be lookin' for answers they'll be chasin' you down
In the heat of the night
(Where ya gonna hide when it all comes down)
(Don't look back don't ever turn around)

Had to pay the piper to call the tune
Said he'd be back someday - said he'd be back real soon
Pull the shades down low - you'll know when the time is right
When you're lyin' alone in the heat of the night

Oh thinking about our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now nothing can take you away from me
We been down that road before
But that's over now, you keep me coming back for more

Baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in Heaven

And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in Heaven

Oh once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when you're feeling down
Yeah nothing can change what you mean to me
There's alot that I could say but just hold me now
Cause our love will light the way

And baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in Heaven

And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in Heaven

I've been waiting for so long
For something to arrive
For love to come along

Now our dreams are coming true
Through the good times and the bad
I'll be standing there by you

And baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in Heaven

And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in Heaven

You're all that I want...
You're all that I need...

Breakin' rocks in the hot sun,
I fought the law and the law won.
I fought the law and the law won.
I needed money 'cause I had none,
I fought the law and the law won.
I fought the law and the law won.

I miss my baby and I feel so bad,
I guess my race is run.
She's the best girl I ever had,
I fought the law and the law won.
I fought the law and the law won.
Robbin' people with a six-gun,
I fought the law and the law won.
I fought the law and the law won.
I miss my baby and I feel so bad,
I guess my race is run.
She's the best girl I ever had,
I fought the law and the law won.
I fought the law and the law won.

I fought the law and the law won.
I fought the law and the law won.

Life - thin as a thread
Sometimes you're lucky
Sometimes you're better off dead

Your first breath is taken and in to the world you are cast
You long for tomorrow while living each day as your last

Well I know what your heart desires
But you can't take it with you
Into the fire

Now you've done all you can
Your life's at the crossroads
You watch as it slips through your hands

So stand on the mountain and shout in vain at the sky
But nobody hears you - the words only echo inside
Oh shelter the flame - it may expire
Risin' up from the ashes
Into the fire

Just hold on to your life down to the wire
Oh out from the dragon's jaws
Into the fire

There's a moment in every man's life
When he must decide what is wrong and what's right

You could wait for your dreams to come true
But time has no mercy
Time won't stand still for you

Well I know what your heart desires
Crawlin' out from the wreckage
Into the fire

Here I go...into the fire
I know...what your heart desires

When the feelin' is ended
There ain't no use pretendin'
Don't ya worry - It's only love

When your world has been shattered
Ain't nothin' else matters
It ain't over - It's only love
And that's all - yeah

When your heart has been broken
Hard words have been spoken
It ain't easy - but it's only love

And your life ain't worth livin'
And you're ready to give in
Just remember - that it's only love

You can live without the aggravation
Ya gotta wanna win - ya gotta wanna win
You keep lookin' back in desperation
Over and over and over again

When your world has been shattered
Ain't nothin' else matters
It ain't over - It's only love

And if your life ain't worth livin'
And you're ready to give in
Just remember - that it's only love
Ya - that's all

Ya it ain't easy baby
But it's only love - and that's all

Turned on the radio
Sounded like a disco
Musta turned the dial for a couple of miles
But I couldn't find no rock n' roll

This computerized crap ain't gettin' me off
Everywhere I go - the kids wanna rock

London to LA
Talk about the New Wave
For a couple of bucks ya get a weird haircut
And waste your life away

Around the world or around the block
Everywhere I go - the kids wanna rock

Get me my DJ
I got somethin' he's gotta play
Wanna hear it I can't wait
So turn it up - turn it up...

Kick down the barricades
Listen what the kids say
From time to time people change their minds
But the music is here to stay

I've seen it all from the bottom to the top
Everywhere I go - the kids wanna rock

Around the world or around the block
Everywhere I go - the kids wanna rock
Everywhere I go - the kids wanna rock

The telephone's bin ringin' - ringin' off the wall
It's your Las Vegas lawyer - another long distance call
He says you get the house and the car
And I get the clothes I got on
Now she's gone
Long, long, long, long gone
Now I'm a happy boy

She's long, long, long, long gone

Operator get me Manhatten - get my baby on the line
Sooner or later she's gotta realize
That all my feelin's were for real
But maybe she was leadin' me on

Chorus

She took the frigidaire
She got my favorite chair
You could say she got the best of me

It's like a legal crime
But in a matter of time
She'll be back for the rest of me

You're the silent type
And you caught my eye
But I never thought that I'd be touchin' you
How was I to know
I'd let my feelin's go
And that I'd be yours before the night was through

One night love affair
Tryin' to make like we don't care
We were both reachin' out for somethin'
One night love affair
Pretendin' it ain't there
Oh - and now we're left with nothin'

When the mornin' breaks
We go our separate ways
If the night was made for love it ain't for keeps
But I lose control
As I watch you go
All my senses say I'm in this much too deep
Now you're outta reach

One night love affair
Tryin' to make like we don't care
We were both reachin' out for somethin'
One night love affair
Pretendin' it ain't there
Oh - and now we're left with nothin'

One night love affair
Tryin' to make like we don't care
We were both reachin' out for somethin'
One night love affair
Pretendin' it ain't there
Oh - and now we're left with nothin'

She says her love for me could never die
But that'd change if she ever found out about you and I

Oh - but her love is cold
It wouldn't hurt her if she didn't know, cause...

When it gets too much
I need to feel your touch

I'm gonna run to you
I'm gonna run to you
Cause when the feelin's right I'm gonna run all night
I'm gonna run to you

She's got a heart of gold she'd never let me down
But you're the one that always turns me on
You keep me comin' 'round

I know her love is true
But it's so damn easy makin' love to you

I got my mind made up
I need to feel your touch

I'm gonna run to you
Ya - I'm gonna run to you
Cause when the feelin's right I'm gonna stay all night
I'm gonna run to you
Ya - I'm gonna run to you
Oh when the feelin's right I'm gonna run all night
I'm gonna run to you

Monday mornin' - it's time to get up
Two cups of coffee and she runs for the bus
Looks in the window and fixes her hair
Nobody notices and nobody cares

She admits it ain't no kinda life
Workin' 9 to 5 you know...

She's only happy when she's dancin'
There ain't no place she'd rather be
When she's dancin'
Just her heart and her soul and her fantasies

When Friday evenin' finally rolls around
She grabs a taxi and she heads uptown
Goes to a place they call "The Ball And Chain"
Nothin' matters until Monday so she goes insane

Well it's a bitch tryin' to make ends meet
But that's the way the story goes
She's only happy when she's dancin'
There ain't nothin' makes her feel so free
When she's dancin'
The girl's outrageous and it's plain to see

Solo

She ain't got much but she got independence
Ya - she's doin' alright
His eyes are on her as the evenin's endin'
But she ain't goin' for no mystery
Because nobody rides for free

She's only happy when she's dancin'
Dancin' - there ain't no place she'd rather be
When she's dancin'
Just her heart and her soul and her fantasies - dancin'

I bin lookin' for someone
Between the fire and the flame
We're all lookin' for somethin'
To ease the pain

Now who can you turn to
When it's all black 'n' white
And the winners are losers
You see it every night

I need somebody
Somebody like you
Everybody needs somebody

I need somebody
Hey what about you
Everybody needs somebody

When you're out on the front line
And you're watchin' them fall
Doesn't take long to realize
It ain't worth fightin' for

I thought I saw the Madonna
When you walked in the room
And your eyes were like diamonds
And they cut right through - Oh they cut right through

I need somebody
Somebody like you
Everybody needs somebody

I need somebody
Hey what about you
We all need somebody

Another night another lesson learned
It's the distance that keeps us sane
But when the silence leads to sorrow
We do it all again - all again

I need somebody
Somebody like you
Everybody needs somebody

I need somebody
Hey what about you
Everybody needs somebody

I got my first real six string
Bought it at the five and dime
Played it til my fingers bled
Was the summer of '69

Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit and Jody got married
I shoulda known we'd never get far
oh when I look back now
That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice
Ya - I'd always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life

Ain't no use in complainin'
When you got a job to do
Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in
And that's when I met you - ya

Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that you'd wait forever
Oh and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life
Back in the summer of '69

Man we were killin' time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothin' can last forever - forever, no...

And now the times are changin'
Look at everything that's come and gone
Sometimes when I play that old six string
I think about ya'n wonder what went wrong

Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me it would last forever
Oh the way you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life

Back in the summer of '69

I shoulda seen it coming
I shoulda seen the signs
Didn't really think that she needs me
Must've 'bin blind

She didn't give me a warning
Said I shouldn't treat you wrong
But when I woke up this mornin'
She was gone gone gone

She said...
Take me back won't ya
Take me back won't ya
I'll change my ways
Take me back won't ya
Take me back won't ya
I'm not the same

She didn't tell me about it
Am I supposed to read your mind
You make me get up and shout it
It's a crime crime crime

I shoulda seen it coming
I shoulda seen the signs
Didn't really think that she needs me
Must've 'bin blind

She said...
Take me back won't ya
Take me back won't ya
I'll change my ways
Take me back won't ya
Take me back won't ya
I'm not the same

Won't ya take me back
Won't ya take me back

Just a small town girl in the city lights
The best was yet to come
Then lonely days turned to endless nights
The best was yet to come

How were you to know
That you would be the lucky one
Ain't it funny how time flies
When the best is yet to come

You can cry yourself to sleep at night
You can't change the things you've done
You had it there then it slipped away
Yeah you left the song unsung

Even through your tears
I never saw you come undone
What's so good about goodbye
When the best was yet to come

I find myself thinkin' about yesterday
When you were and livin' in a dream
In the moment that it takes
You find you made your first mistake
Like the setting sun...
You turn around it's gone

Just a small town girl who had it made
Or so the story goes
She had it there then it slipped
Oh - how was she to know

Even through her tears
I never saw her come undone
Ain't it funny how time flies
When the best is yet to come
What's so good about goodbye
When the best was yet to come

I go out walkin'
After midnight out in the moonlight
Just like we used to to do.
I'm always walkin' after midnight
Searchin' for you.
I walk for miles along the highway,
Well, that's just my way
Of sayin' "I love you":
I'm always walkin' after midnight
Searchin' for you.

I stop to see a weepin' willow
Cryin' in her pillow,
Maybe she's cryin' for me.
And as the sky turns gloomy
Night winds whisper to me
I'm lonesome as I can be.
I go out walkin' after midnight
Out in the moonlight,
Just hopin' you may be
Out there walkin' after midnight
Searchin' for me.
I go out walkin'
After midnight out in the moonlight
Just like we used to to do.
I'm always walkin' after midnight
Searchin' for you.

Wanna be young - the rest of my life
Never say no - try anything twice
Til the angels come - and ask me to fly
Gonna be 18 til I die - 18 til I die
Can't live forever - that's wishful thinkin'
Who ever said that - must of bin' drinkin'
Don't wanna grow up - I don't see why
I couldn't care less if time flies by

*18 til I die - gonna be 18 til I die
Ya it sure feels good to be alive
Someday I'll be 18 goin' on 55! - 18 til I die

Anyway - I just wanna say
Why bother with what happened yesterday
That's not my style - I live for the minute
If ya wanna stay young - get both feet in it - 18 til I die
A 'lil bit of this - a 'lil bit of that
'Lil bit of everything - get ya right on track
It's not how ya look, it's what ya feel inside
Don't care how - don't need ta know why

*Repeat

Ya there's one thing for sure - I'm sure gonna try
Don't worry 'bout the future
Forget about the past
Gonna have a ball - ya gonna have a blast
Gonna make it last

Deep down in Mississippi
I found my sweet delta blues
She weaved a little southern spell on me
Made a little voodoo

She was born the bright side of midnight
When her mama was seventeen
She was a hot blooded - god fearin' - gospel girl
The finest that I ever seen

She's black coffee - little bit 'o cream
Sweet brown sugar - my midnight dream
Black pearl - my kinda girl
Just the kind of thing to rock my world
Black pearl - she's my kinda girl

Met her in a dixie diner
Put on the southern hospitality
I can still smell her sweet molasses
Running all over me

We started rollin' like the river
Like a twister tearin' through the town
Tongue tied - satisfied - 'n southern fried
As she drove this ol' dixie down

She's black coffee - little bit 'o cream
Sweet brown sugar - my midnight dream
Black pearl - my kinda girl
Just the kind of thing to rock my world
Black pearl - she's my kinda girl

Yeah she's alright - yeah she's ok
Makin' love night - she really made my day

If ya love somebody - if ya need someone
If ya want somebody - ya - let me be the one
(I wanna) do to you what you do to me
Do to you what you do to me
Let me treat ya right - ya - show I care
Cuz every night - I'll take ya there
Do to you what you do to me
Do to you what you do to me
Don't want just anything - I just want something real
Let down your defenses baby - show me what you feel
Do to you what you do to me
Do to you what you do to me
Should I stay - should I go
There ain't no question - I already know
(I wanna) do to you what you do to me
(help me) do to you what you do to me
Don't want just anything - I just want something real
Let down your defenses baby - show me what you feel

To really love a woman
To understand her - you gotta know her deep inside
Hear every thought - see every dream
N' give her wings - when she wants to fly
Then when you find yourself lyin' helpless in her arms
Ya know ya really love a woman

When you love a woman you tell her
that she's really wanted
When you love a woman you tell her that she's the one
Cuz she needs somebody to tell her

I oughta be workin' - but I can't concentrate
I oughta be sleepin' - 'steada stayin' up late
When I oughta be doing all the things I should do
I think about you
I oughta be writin' - but I can't find the song
Just sittin' here driftin' - driftin' along
There's only one thing that I wanna do
And that's think about you

I think about you - I can't get no rest
I think about you - there ain't no one else
It's all I can do - I can't help myself
Ya - I think about you

I could go cruisin' - but I've had enough
I could go drinkin' - but I can't stand the stuff
It just don't do me like it used ta do
I'd rather think about you

I think about you - I can't get no rest
I think about you - there ain't no one else
It's all I can do - I can't help myself
Ya - I think about you

I swear to you - I will always be there for you -
there's nothin' I won't do
I promise you - all my life I will live for you - we
will make it through
Forever - we will be
Together - you and me
Oh n' when I hold ya - nothin' can compare
With all of my heart - ya know I'll always be - right
there
I believe in us - nothin' else could ever mean so much
You're the one I trust our time has come - we're not two
people
Now - we are one - ya you're second to none
Forever - we will be
Together - a family
The more I get to know ya - nothin' can compare
With all of my heart - ya know I'll always be - right
there

Forever - we will be
Together - just you and me
The more I get to know ya - the more I really care
With all of my heart - ya know I'll always be...
Ya know I really love ya - ya nothin' can compare
For all of my life - ya know I'll always be - right
there

It ain't a party - if you can't come 'round
You can drive the car - I'll play my ol' guitar
Come back to me - come back to me
Ya we can get some beer - ya let's get outta here
Come back to me - come back to me
We'll find a place to go - no one will ever know
Somewhere that's outta town
Put a blanket on the ground - baby
N' we can really go crazy
Babe it ain't a party - if you can't come 'round
Can't even get started - if you don't come down
Even Saturday - ain't a holiday - if you stay away
No - no it ain't a party - if you can't come 'round

Slip into somethin' tight - we'll slip into the night
Come back to me - come back to me
We'll see the sun go down - 'n maybe fool around
Come back to me - come back to me
Ya we can start a fire - maybe get a little higher
Don't worry what to bring - cuz we got everything - baby
And we can really go crazy

Babe it ain't a party - if you can't come 'round
Can't even get started - if you don't come down
Even Saturday - ain't a holiday - if you stay away
No - no it ain't a party - if you can't come 'round

It ain't a party - if you can't come 'round
You can drive the car - I'll play my ol' guitar
Come back to me - come back to me
Ya we can get some beer - ya let's get outta here
Come back to me - come back to me
We'll find a place to go - no one will ever know
Somewhere that's outta town
Put a blanket on the ground - baby
N' we can really go crazy
Babe it ain't a party - if you can't come 'round
Can't even get started - if you don't come down
Even Saturday - ain't a holiday - if you stay away
No - no it ain't a party - if you can't come 'round

Slip into somethin' tight - we'll slip into the night
Come back to me - come back to me
We'll see the sun go down - 'n maybe fool around
Come back to me - come back to me
Ya we can start a fire - maybe get a little higher
Don't worry what to bring - cuz we got everything - baby
And we can really go crazy

Babe it ain't a party - if you can't come 'round
Can't even get started - if you don't come down
Even Saturday - ain't a holiday - if you stay away
No - no it ain't a party - if you can't come 'round

I love the way ya look tonight
with your hair hangin down on your shoulders
I love the way ya dance that slow sweet tango
The way ya do everything but talk
And how ya stare at me with those undress me eyes
And your breath on my body makes me warm inside

Let's make out - let's do something amazing
Let's do something that's all the way
Cuz I've never touched somebody like the way I touch your body
Now I never want to let your body go...

Let's make a night - to remember
From January - to December
Let's make love - to excite us
A memory - to ignite us
Let's make honey baby - soft and tender
Let's make sugar darlin' - sweet surrender
Let's make a night - to remember - all life long

What cha wanna be - when you grow up
What cha gonna do - when your time is up
What cha gonna say - when things go wrong
What cha wanna do - when you're on your own

There's a road - long and winding
The lights are blindin' - but it gets there
Don't give up - don't look back
There's a silver linin' - it's out there somewhere
Everybody wants an answer - everybody needs a friend
We all need a shinin' star on which we can depend
N' so tonight we're gonna wish upon a star
We never wished upon before - (to find what you're looking for)

There'll be times - in your life
Ya when you' be dancin' n' shit - but you ain't gettin it
But don't get disillusioned - no, don't expect too much
Cuz if what you have is all you can get - just keep on tryin' - it just ain't happened yet
Everybody wants ta be winner - everybody has a dream
We all need a shinin' star when things ain't what they seem
So tonight we're gonna wish upon a star
We never wished upon before - (gotta get where you're headed for)

Everybody wants some kindness - everybody needs a break
We all need a shinin' star when things get hard to take
So tonight we're gonna wish upon a star
We never wished upon before

I don't look good in no Armani Suits
No Gucci shoes - or designer boots
I've tried the latest lines from A to Z
But there's just one thing that looks good on me

The only thing I want
The only thing I need
The only thing I choose
The only thing that looks good on me...is you

I'm not satisfied with Versace style
Put those patent leather pants - in the circular file
Sometimes I think - I might be lookin' good
But there's only one thing that fits me like it should

The only thing I want
The only thing I need
The only thing I choose
The only thing that looks good on me...is you

Ya it's you - it could only be you
Nobody else will ever do
Ya baby it's you - that I stick to
Ya we stick like glue

The only thing I want
The only thing I need
The only thing I choose
The only thing that looks good on me...is you

We're gonna win
Don't wanna be a loser - gonna win
Cuz winnin' really is the only thing
Get out of the way we're comin' in
If ya wanna fight just step inside the ring
Does anybody wanna take a swing?
It's gotta be all or nothing
Oh we're gonna be the champions
Ya we're goin' all the way - we're gonna win win

We're gonna win
Forget about a draw - we're gonna score
And then we're gonna get a few more
Maybe another one just to be sure
We'll make ya look just like an amateur
Until the final whistle it's a war
And then we're gonna pick ya off the floor
We wanna hear the crowd really roar
Ya - we're comin' in we're gonna win win

We're gonna win - we wanna win
Cuz number one is everything
We're gonna win - we wanna win
We're gonna be the champions
We're gonna win

Turn out the lights and close the door
Put your head on the pillow let me keep ya warm
I wanna run my hands across your face
Ya lyin' beside ya' still the perfect place
We're still goin' strong
So glad that you came along

Ya babe in every way
You're still beautiful to me
I just - have ta say -
You're still beautiful to me 'n
(it's bin a long time baby)
Lay back baby - close your eyes
Let me do everything your heart desires
When I think of the years makin' love to you
There still ain't nothin' I'd rather do
There's somethin' I can't deny
You sure know how ta move this guy


Ya babe in every way -
You're still beautiful to me
I just - have ta say -
You're still beautiful to me - can't ya see
Still feels good - still runs deep
When you get close babe - I still get weak
Cuz in these arms - is where you belong
We're still goin' strong - so glad that you came along
Hey babe you're still number one


Oh can't ya see - you're still beautiful to me
You'll always be so beautiful to me
Ya babe in every way - you're still beautiful to me

Wanna be young - the rest of my life

Never say no - try anything twice

Til the angels come - and ask me to fly

Gonna be 18 til I die-

18 til i die

Can't live forever - that's wishful thinkin'

Who ever said that - must of bin' drinkin'

Don't wanna grow up - I don't see why

I couldn't care less if time flies by

18 til I die - gonna be 18 til I die

Ya it sure feels good to be alive

Someday I'll be 18 goin' on 55! - 18 til I die

Anyway - I just wanna say

Why bother with what happened yesterday

It's not my style - I live for the minute

If ya wanna stay young - get both feet in it -

18 til i die

A 'lil bit of this - a 'lil bit of that

'Lil bit of everything - gotta get on track

It's not how ya look, it's what ya feel inside

I don't care when - I don't need ta know why

18 til I die - gonna be 18 til I die

Ya it sure feels good to be alive

Someday I'll be 18 goin' on 55! - 18 til I die

Ya there's one thing for sure - I'm sure gonna try

Don't worry 'bout the future

Forget about the past

Gonna have a ball - ya we're gonna have a blast

Gonna make it last

some people walk the straight and narrow - some walk the rocky road
some get the silver spoon and some get the heavy load
there's a man in a paper box he smiles whenever we walk by
we just walk a little faster and say "there but for the grace of God go i"
but a little love - just a little love - a little love can change it all

i've been up and down this highway and i ain't seen a road sign yet
it's a cold hard world baby you gotta hang on to what you get
i don't believe in miracles but that don't mean they don't come true
well i may not get to heaven but i get a little closer when i'm with you
but a little love - just a little love - a little love can change it all


well i get a little tired walkin' down the street
people on my side - everyone i meet
but they don't know what's on my mind
and they don't know that they might find
a little love - just a little love - a little love can change it all


right when you think you don't need love is when you need it most
even if you got the father the son and the holy ghost
well there's more to truth baby than what we know is true
ya we wander round in the darkness
but every now and then a little light shines thru
and a little love - just a little love - a little love can change it all

I've been down - I've been beat

I've been so tired - that I could not speak

I've bin so lost that I could not see

I wanted things that were out of reach

Then I found you and you helped me through

And ya showed me what to do

That's why I'm comin' back to you...

Like a star that guides a ship across the ocean

That's how your love can take me home back to
you

And if I wish upon that star - that someday
I'll be where you are

I know that day is comin soon - ya I'm comin
back to you

You've been alone but ya did not show it

You've been in pain when I did not know it

You let me do what I needed to - you were there
when I needed you

Mighta let you down - mighta messed you round

But ya never changed your point of view

That's why I'm comin' back to you...

I'm comin' back to you....

I'm comin' back to you....

I'm comin' back to you....

I'm comin' back to you....

That day is comin' soon

I'm comin' back to you....

Drivin' home this evenin'

Coulda sworn we had it all worked out

You had this boy believin' way beyond a shadow of a doubt

Then I heard it on the street

I heard ya might of found somebody new

Well who is he baby - who is he and tell me what he means to you

I took it for granted - but how was I to know

That you'd be lettin' go

Now it cuts like a knife - but it feels so right

It cuts like a knife - but it feels so right

There's times I've bin mistaken

There's times I've thought I've bin misunderstood

So wait a minute darlin' - can't you see we did the best we could

This wouldn't be the first time - that things have gone astray

Now you've thrown it all away

Now it cuts like a knife - but it feels so right It cuts like a knife - but it feels so right

Well in the air for the world today yeah.
Five O'Clock and those walls are slowly closin'.
You get home so down and worn out, thunderstruck.
Yeah fits you good,
Oh fits you good.
Yeah fits you good, Oh.

Closin' time you were bringin' me down,
Well I know it's just the way you live your life.
But you don't know like I know better,
I did all that I could. Now it

Fits you good,
Yeah fits you good.
Oh fits you good, Oh.
But you don't know what I know,
I did all that I could. Now

Oh thinkin about all
our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and
wild and free
Now nothing can
take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But there's over now
You keep me comin
back for more
Baby you're all that I want
When you're lyin
here in my arms
I'm findin it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven

Oh once in your life
you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when you're
feelin down
Ya nothin could
change you mean to me
Oh there's lots that I could say
But just hold me now
Course our love will light the way
Baby you're all that I want
When you're lyin here in my arms
I'm findin it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven

I've been waitin for so long
For somethin to arrive
For love to come along
Now our dreams are comin true
Through the good times and the bad
I'll be standin there by you oh

Baby you're all that I want
When you're lyin here in my arms
I'm findin it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it
there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven heaven

you're all that I want
you're all that I need

I oughta be workin' - but I can't concentrate

I oughta be sleepin' - 'steada stayin' up late

When I oughta be doing all the things I should do

I think about you

I oughta be writin' - but I can't find the song

Just sittin' here driftin' - driftin' along

There's only one thing that I wanna do

And that's think about you

I think about you - I can't get no rest

I think about you - there ain't no one else

It's all I can do - I can't help myself

Ya - I think about you

I could go cruisin' - but I've had enough

I could go drinkin' - but I can't stand the stuff

It just don't do me like it used ta do

I'd rather think about you

I think about you - I can't get no rest

I think about you - there ain't no one else

It's all I can do - I can't help myself

Ya - I think about you

I swear to you - I will always be there for you - there's nothin' I won't do
I promise you - all my life I will live for you - we will make it through
Forever - we will be
Together - you and me
Oh n' when I hold ya - nothin' can compare
With all of my heart - ya know I'll always be right there

I believe in us - nothin' else could ever mean so much
You're the one I trust our time has come - we're not two people
Now we are one - ya you're second to none
Forever - we will be
Together - a family
The more I get to know ya - nothin' can compare
With all of my heart - ya know I'll always be right there

Forever - we will be
Together - just you and me
The more I get to know ya - the more I really care
With all of my heart - ya know I'll always be...
Ya know I really love ya - ya nothin' can compare
For all of my life - ya know I'll always be...right there

I'd like to see you,
Thought I'd let you know.
I wanna be with you every day
'Cause I've got a feelin'
That's beginnin' to grow
And there's only one thing I can say.

I'm ready - to love you.
I'm ready - to hold you
I'm ready - to love you
I'm ready - to hold you
As ready as I'm gonna be.

You left me a long note
When you left me here.
Told me that love was hard to find.
But baby, it's easy and I'll make it clear
That there's only one thing on my mind
