Hall & Oates

I can walk all alone through a river of fire
'Cause my heart is true
Put my soul on the line
That's what I'd do, that's what I'd do

There's a power in passion
That I can't control
It's a natural reaction
I can't let it go

[Chorus]
I'm a man on a mission to love you
I'm gonna make you mine
I'm a man on a mission
I can't stop tryin' now
I'm gonna make you mine

Where angels fear to fly
That's where I go with my foolish pride
I got too close to the sun
I was the one looking for you

I feel the power in passion
When it's takin' control
It's a natural reaction
And I can't let it go

[Chorus]

Can't you see what you mean to me?
How much I need you
You know we owe each other honesty
So tell me what can I do
To get to you

I would fly ten thousand miles
In the pouring rain
Just to see your face
I'd bare my soul to a total stranger
Just to say your name
And I'm not ashamed

Just to love you into every morning
I would change my name
And run away

I won't do it for money
I won't do it for pride
I won't do it to please somebody else
If it don't feel right

But I'll do it for you
And at least I'll try
I don't need any other reason
Than I feel it deep inside

I'll Do It For Love

I would write your name across the sky
So the world could see
What you mean to me
I'd sing songs at the top of my voice
In an empty room
Just to dance with you

And to love you into every morning
I'll leave the world behind
And I'll slow down time

I won't do it for money
I won't do it for pride
I won't do it to please somebody else
If it don't feel right
But I'll do it for you
And at least I'll try
I don't need any other reason
Than I feel it deep inside

I'll Do It For Love

What I do for love can take us anywhere at all

Ninety miles outside Chicago
Can't stop driving
Don't know why
So many questions
I need an answer
Two years later you're still on my mind
What ever happened to Amelia Earhart
Who holds the stars up in the sky
Is true love once in a lifetime
Did the captain of the titanic cry

Someday we'll know
If love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know
Why I wasn't meant for you

Does anybody know the way to Atlantis
Or what the wind says when she cries
I'm speeding by the place that I met you
For the ninety seventh time tonight

Someday we'll know
If love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know
Why I wasn't meant for you

Someday we'll know
Why Sampson loved Delilah
One day I'll go
Dancing on the moon
Someday you'll know
That I was the one for you
I bought a ticket to the end of the rainbow
I watched the stars crash into the sea
If I could ask God just one question
Why aren't you here with me

Someday we'll know
If love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know
Why I wasn't meant for you
Why Sampson loved Delilah
One day I'll go
Dancing on the moon
Someday you'll know
That I was the one for you

Seeing you in February was great
Cliches all come true 'time heals all wounds'
I went to get us our ninth drink
And you ran out the door with another guy
I woke up on the floor with my shoes on
A smile on my face and I didn't even care

Does anyone know what love can cost?
To take you so high then leave you lost?
Is it a mystery that runs too deep
For such a simple heart?

Can anyone stop the hands of time?
And put back the loving in your eyes?
Though it's his name I hear when you are sleeping
I'll pretend it's mine

When they ask me how long I'm gonna love you
If the road to my heart will always stay true
I'll say forever
I'll say forever for you
When they ask will I stand right there beside you
and they don't see you and me the way that I do
I'll say forever
I'll say forever for you

A rose is a rose by any name
But a thorn will still cut you just the same
I'm losing your love I know
So sad the feeling
I can tell somebody's stealing
Stealing away your heart

When they ask me how long I'm gonna love you
If the road to my heart will always stay true
I'll say forever
I'll say forever for you
When they ask will I stand right there beside you
and they don't see you and me the way that I do
I'll say forever
I'll say forever for you

I don't know if I should tell you
How you live in my heart
There's no room for another
If you leave me now
My heart would not recover

When they ask me how long I'm gonna love you
If the road to my heart will always stay true
I'll say forever
I'll say forever for you
When they ask will I stand right there beside you
and they don't see you and me the way that I do
I'll say forever
I'll say forever for you

I let you escape, slip through my fingers
We made our mistakes, but memories linger
Each time I turn a corner I swear I see your face
But I'm standing here alone in the wonder
What I really needed, what made me run away?
Was it just a crazy spell I was under?

(chorus)
We all love on borrowed time, tomorrow's flying blind
And Life's Too Short to be living without you

You laughed at my jokes, broke down my defenses
It's like my heart just awoke, and brought back my senses
I've got my motor running; it's all that I can do
Cause every road I'm taking is leading back to you

-Repeat chorus –

I give in I can't go it alone, yeah I'm done now I know that you're gone
I need someone to save me and Life's Too Short to be living without you

Remembering when we first met
We had that adventure in our eyes
But something got away I guess
In the everyday of our lives

And I don't know what keeps us here
Let's disappear and start all over again

(chorus)
We can run away
Baby come as you are
You can look at my heart
As your Getaway Car
We can drive all night
It'll be alright
Love can take us so far in my Getaway Car

All we need is the open road
More fuel for the fire inside us
Steer us onto lands unknown
We can leave this world behind us

-Repeat chorus-

Turn up the radio and don't look back again
Let me put the pedal down, gonna leave this town
Don't be afraid to ride

-Repeat chorus-

I should have heard you talkin'
Now I'm a dead man walking
I should have paid more mind
To the little things, the little things

Why is love so complicated
Maybe that's the we made it
Just tell me you won't go
Say it isn't so

Like on the radio
And if I could I'd write that song for you

If a song could make you cry
If a song could make you say goodbye
Could it change you mind
If a song could make you stay
It's a backward chain reaction
It's a lack of satisfaction
That makes our love breakdown
To the little things, the little things

Gone 180 degrees
Come back to me
Just tell me you won't go
Say it isn't so
Like on the radio
And if I could I'd write that song for you

If a song could make you cry
If a song could make you say goodbye
Could it change you mind
If a song could make you stay
If a song could break you down
Then a song could turn our love around

Can you hear that sound
If a song can make you stay
If a song could make you cry
If a song could make you say goodbye
Could it change you mind
If a song could make you stay
If a song could break you down
Then a song could turn our love around
Can you hear that sound
If a song can make you stay

She plays a superstar
She flies into your world from so far
Then she spins the records
She plays the music here
You've got to get with her beat, tonight
Ain't no way to fight it

[Chorus]
She's got a groove that will make you feel funky
She's got a body you wanna to take home
She licks the lips that you gotta know better
Hey Miss DJ, how do I get you alone?

She knows the leeches here
They spy into her world it's so clear
When the needle's on the record, yeah
She drops the beat one time
The crowd just falls at her feet tonight
And they don't know how to fight it

[Chorus]

You're not the only table turnin' tonight
Ya know the beat is pumpin' from inside
Put down your headphones and come dance
Let the vinyl go free

[Chorus]

Well she takes her hair down slowly
And starts her ride
A silver Maranello girl
Up to the hills faster than light

She knows I shouldn't be here, baby
It turns her on
There's silk in her touch, gold in her kiss
My conscience is all but gone



She don't believe in long term love
She just wanna hit and run this stuff
She the devil with an angels's face
The kind of girl a man likes to taste
She's gonna tear you world apart
She ain't never gonna care for your heart
She goes for guys she should not have
Iv'e been hit-yeah She's got me bad

She pours out pure temptataion
Nice and strong
She leaves for a moment
The returns in her shoes
Nothing else on

When I try to go
She stops me
And leads the way
There's silk in her touch
Gold in her kiss
And heaven takes the doubt away

-Repeat
-

She makes me feel
Like I don't really want to leave here, baby
But I know this girl,Know this girl
Know that she's the best in the whole damn world

She drives me wild, then it's over
No she never wants to play, wants to play
Should have let my head rule my heart along the way
I really wanna know you

I can read between the lonely lines
Every single word brings a tear to my eye
Tell me how did we get here
And where did heaven go

I remember us as strong as stone
Now I see the cracks breaking up a home
And a future filled with fear
But I won't surrender no
We can make it through the fire
I won't lay it down and die
I will be the air, if you are out of breath
And out of time

[Chorus]
Baby don't it feel right
Don't you know why
Won't you say what it is
Why you just can't see what's going on
I'll be the Breath of Your Life

See the way the wind blows
No matter how it goes
I'm the air that you need
If you're out of breath and out of time
I'll be the Breath of Your Life
Baby, no no we ain't out of time

I don't want to go around again
Passionate lover turning into friend
I don't want to be back there
Let that heaven go
Explain the things you really need
I can make it happen if you talk to me

Though I cannot read your mind
I can get into your soul
We Could Make it through the Fire
I won't lie down and die
I will be the air if you are out of breath and out of time

[Chorus]

See the way the wind blows
No matter how it goes
I'm the air that you need
If you're out of breath and out of time
I'll be the Breath of Your Life
Baby, no no we ain't out of time

Are you feeling like you're drowning
Are you choking?
And you just don't know what to do
Well I can help you make it through
And I the one to save it?

I really think that we could do this
Get through this
Don't doubt it, think about it
Be sure you can depend on me
Let me be the air that you breathe

[Chorus]

I've got a feeling
My intuition's telling me so
Just a beginning
A seed you planted deep in my soul

And I never knew this love before
Didn't have a clue that there was more
So I'm gonna tell you how it's gonna be
Going down with me
Going up this street

(Chorus)
No matter what it takes
No matter what they say
I'm gonna use my Intuition
No matter how tough
I'm never givin' up
Gonna use my Intuition

This voice inside me
Is saying don't put fear in the way
Let your spirit guide me
Like a shining light that's calling my name

And I never knew a love so strong
Didn't have a clue where I belong
Now I'm like a kid in a candy store
Always wanting more
Coming back for sure
And you gotta believe

-Repeat -chorus-

I know we can make it
My Intuition tells me
Don't tell me no
Don't tell me no
Don't tell me no, baby

The only consolation in this situation
Is I know you're missing me
The way I'm missing you
I guess that you ain't sleeping and the company you're keeping
They're all gonna offer you
Words of comfort too

Time will heal it, that's what they say
But I can't help but wish tomorrow was today

[Chorus]
I been doing heartbreak time
And there's no two ways about it
When you're in you just can't doubt it
Doing heartbreak time
I been doing heartbreak time
And though I keep believing
It's my heart that I'm deceiving
Doing heartbreak time

Maybe I'm just pretending but I see a happy ending
Well I guess that's just like me
A fool in love you see
I can still recall the day, you said that you'd be mine to stay
Words that meant so much
Oh I miss your touch

When you'd call me I'd know what you'd want to say
I can't help it, I wish it was yesterday

[Chorus]

And though we may be parted
You still hold the key to my heart
And I'm locked away

Yeah you've been so close, oh baby
In my world always gone with someone
Seeing you on your own
It's like some light, so bright is turning on
See you standing there oh baby
Feel a change in the air
Everywhere
Why didn't I know
That you're the one that Ive been waiting for

[Chorus]
Yeah, there's something about you
That I never knew
Why didn't I see your smile before
Yeah, there's something about you
That's leaving me breathless
Leading me on

You can see, I can tell oh baby
You've got some power over me
Use it well
Don't know why I'm so sure
That you're the love that Ive been longing for

[Chorus]

Only matters what I feel right now
No matter what Ive felt before
I'm turning to you right now
I'm breathless baby, that's all I need to know

Yeah, there's something about you
Something about you

In the heart of the country
There's a killer without a gun
We're afraid to be no longer free
To trust and love in one
So I gotta say
Say a prayer for you

In the heart of the darkness
There's a killer without a name
Nowhere to hide, no mountainside
Cities all the same
So please oh, please
Say a prayer , prayer for me

(Chorus)
Out of the dark and silence
How in the world will we survive
Love in a dangerous time
Out of the fear and madness
How in the world will we survive
Love in a Dangerous Time

In The heart of the children
Where the simple things are true
So much to learn
When the world is turned
Turning in on you
Open eyes
Show us what to do
What to do

-Repeat chorus-

Fight our way through open doors
Blind to what we see before us
Fools who make the rules
Commit the crimes
That lay it on the line

Baby, if we can't solve any problems
Why do we lose so many tears?
Oh, so you go again
When the leading man appears
Always the same theme
But can't you see we've got everything going on and
Everytime you go away
You take a piece of me with you
Go on and go free
Maybe you're too close to me
I can feel your body move
But does it mean that much to me
I can't go on singing the same theme
"Cause you can't see we've got everything
Baby, even though you know that
Everytime you go away
You take a piece of me with you
You just don't care

Please return, come back, I've been saving your place
Too much time has elapsed-unreality-memory erases
The rules and the rights and the wrongs don't apply
Far apart - So together is destiny weeded to fate
I write the script, you direct my dreams
We're along on the beach for the passionate scene
And it's a drag to wake up with you ... saying to me
How does it feel to be back in my arms again
I'm bored and alone and it's weakening me
One night out and I'm looking for trouble and finding it's easy
You know we all make mistakes and we all need the touch of a hand
In the right kind of place, in a time of need
I could pick up the phone, but the talk ain't cheap
I pick up on the thoughts that you're sending to me
And i wait for the day I hear you saying to me
How does it feel to be back in my arms again

Got a good education now
And I'm ready for the world (yeah)
We've been going together
It's gonna last forever, it ain't never gonna change
I'm a real hard charger (yeah)
Everybody's gonna listen to me
We're a winning combination, that nobody's gonna rearrange

Big Kids breakin' up 'cause they're lookin' for fun
Everybody's leavin', boy-girl on the run
My situation's static, there's no reason to fear
It's too calm around me and it can't happen here

Big Kids - think they know it all
Big Kids - think they've got the world up against the wall
All the grown-ups show me that they're only Big Kids in disguise
Who do you think your leaders are? Big Kids
Who do you think your heros are? Big Kids
I may never reach maturity but, baby, I'm gonna try

Make an amendment to the constitution
To preserve the state of our union
I stop believing what you say to me
There's a tragic gap in credibility

When the light is gone from your eyes
And re-entry may be denied
Do I want to expatriate
Or live in the united state

Inflationary insecurity
'Cause a love ain't worth as much as it used to be
Clean break, running away
Should I work it out some way
Watch the tress in the wind when it's starting to blow
Is the reason to leave, is it treason to go
Just appeasing you is the wrong thing, I know
Break away!

Don't want to face it but I know that it's time to go home
I cannot say what I want to say when we're alone
I've got to leave but I want to stay
Where you are is so far from the U.S. of A.
When we're more than half a world away
It's so hard to be in love with you
Operator, International 011, oh
Put your love on the line, put your ear to the phone
Maybe it's no longer than a night and a day
But where you are is so far from the U.S. of A.
And it ain't so easy, easy on the heart
It's so hard to be in love with you

My friends wonder why I call you all of the time
What can I say
I don't feel the need to give such secrets away
You think maybe I need help though I know that I'm right
I'm just better off not listening to friends' advice
When they insist on knowing my bliss
I tell them this
When they want to know what the reason is
I only smile when I lie, then I tell them why

(Because your kiss) your kiss is on my list
(Because your kiss) your kiss is on my list
Because your kiss is on my list of the best things in life
(Because your kiss) your kiss is on my list
(Because your kiss) your kiss I can't resist
Because your kiss is what I miss when I turn out the light

I go crazy wondering what there is to really see
Did the night just take up your time, 'cause it means more
to me
Sometimes I forget what I'm doing, I don't forget what I
want, what I want
Regret what I've done, regret you? I couldn't go on
And if you insist on knowing my bliss
I'll tell you this
If you want to know what the reason is
I'll only smile when I lie, then I'll tell you why

(Because your kiss) your kiss is on my list
(Because your kiss) your kiss I can't resist
Because your kiss is what I miss when I turn out the light

(Because your kiss) your kiss is on my list
(Because your kiss) your kiss is on my list
Because your kiss is on my list of the best things in life
(Because your kiss) your kiss is on my list
(Because your kiss) your kiss I can't resist
Because your kiss is on my list of the best things in life
