Michael Bolton

I've been thinking about the night
We held each other so close
Had the words locked up inside
We finally let them go
And how we promised together
Forever that we'd never fall
Oh, with a passion that felt so right
Deep in our restless hearts
Nothing breaks the ties
If only love survives
You put your faith in me, now I believe

You're all that I need
In this crazy world
You're my peace of mind
Just hold on to me, we can make it girl
Through the troubled times
The shelter in my life
The air that I can breathe
You're all that I need

Through the years you've loved one man
And always let me know
Found the strength to understand
It's been no easy road
You've never given up
Can't live without your love
I'll put my heart of the line
Until you believe

You're all that I need,
In this crazy world
You're my peace of mind
Just hold onto me, we can make it girl
Through the troubled times
We'll run with a dream, run forever girl
Till we reach the other side
You're all that I need

I can face the fire
When you stand beside me
You keep my heart inspired
The way you believe

You're all that I need
In this crazy world
You're my peace of mind
Just hold onto me, we can make it girl
Through the troubled times
We'll run with a dream
Run forever girl
Till we reach the other side
You're all that I need
You're all that I need

So now you're back
So you've had your fun
And now you're comin' 'round again
Sure baby I should let you in
So you can let me down again
Well it doesn't really matter what
you say or do
You can tell me that you love me
But I know it ain't true

[Chorus:]
Cuz you wouldn't know love
If it knocked down your door
You wouldn't know it now
You never knew it before
If it fell in your hands from the
heavens above
You wouldn't know love
No, you wouldn't know love

You say you've changed
Say you've done me wrong
But you won't do it anymore
No darlin' I don't have to tell you
Where I heard that line before
Baby you'd say anything to get back
into my heart
But when it comes to lovin', you don't
even know where to start

[Chorus]

Did you think I'd believe anything
that you'd say
Let you come back to me
Baby there's just no way
Baby I've had enough
You wouldn't know love

[Chorus]

So now you're back
So you've had your fun
And now you're comin' 'round again
Sure baby I should let you in
So you can let me down again
Well it doesn't really matter what
you say or do
You can tell me that you love me
But I know it ain't true

[Chorus:]
Cuz you wouldn't know love
If it knocked down your door
You wouldn't know it now
You never knew it before
If it fell in your hands from the
heavens above
You wouldn't know love
No, you wouldn't know love

You say you've changed
Say you've done me wrong
But you won't do it anymore
No darlin' I don't have to tell you
Where I heard that line before
Baby you'd say anything to get back
into my heart
But when it comes to lovin', you don't
even know where to start

[Chorus]

Did you think I'd believe anything
that you'd say
Let you come back to me
Baby there's just no way
Baby I've had enough
You wouldn't know love

[Chorus]

Darling, you send me
I know you send me
Darling, you send me
Honest you do, honest you do

Darling, you thrill me
I know you thrill me
Darling you thrill me
Honest you do, honest you do


At first I thought it was just infatuation
But oh, it's lasted for so long
Now I find myself wanting
To marry you
And take you home, wo


CHORUS:


Now I find myself wanting
To marry you
And take you home, wo

You go to my head
and you linger like a haunting refrain
And I find you spinning 'round in my brain
Like the bubbles in a glass of champagne
You go to my head
like a sip of sparkling Burgundy brew
And I find the very mention of you
Like the kicker in a julep or two
The thrill of the thought
that you might give a thought to my plea
Cast a spell over me
Still I say to myself get a hold of yourself
Can't you see that it never can be
You go to my head
with a smile that makes my temperature rise
Like a summer with a thousand Julys
You intoxicate my soul with your eyes
Though I'm certain that this heart of mine
Hasn't a ghost of a chance in this crazy romance
You go to my head
You go to my head

The thrill of the thought
that you might give a thought to my plea
Cast a spell over me
Still I say to myself get a hold of yourself
Can't you see that it never can be
You go to my head
with a smile that makes my temperature rise
Like a summer with a thousand Julys
You intoxicate my soul with your eyes
Though I'm certain that this heart of mine
Hasn't a ghost of a chance in this crazy romance
You go to my head
You go to my head

Here ya come with that song on your face
Telling me with tears in your eyes
How ya made a big mistake
Now ya say ya realize
Was I just suppose to fade away
Into the lonely night

Just waitin' for the day
You would say you've learned your lesson well
Livin' without my love was hell
And I would believe every word that you say
But I know when I just look in your eyes

[Chorus:]
You don't want me bad enough
You don't want me bad enough right now
I don't think you've had enough
Baby you don't want me bad enough right now

Maybe you could take some time
Think about the plans we once made
Before ya put your dreams on the line
Think about the price to be paid
Was I suppose to open up the door

And carry on just like it was before
I hope you understand it's not the end
But I'm not goin' through this scene again
And I do believe every word that you say
But I know when I just look in your eyes

[Chorus]

Love you'll learn, is a double-edged blade
Now the tables are turned
And it cuts both ways
If you're ready for love
Then I want you to stay
But this time, yeh
This time, I've gotta be sure, yeh

[Chorus]

You don't want me bad enough
You don't want me bad enough

You give your hand to me
And then you say hello
I can hardly speak
My heart is beating so
And anyone can tell
You think you know me well
But you don't know me

No you don't know the one
Who thinks of you at night
And longs to kiss your lips
Longs to hold you tight
Oh I am just a friend
That's all I've ever been
Cause you don't know me

Well I never knew the art of making love
No my heart aches with love for you
Afraid and shy I let my chance go by
The chance that you might love me too

You give your hand to me
And then you say goodbye
I watch you walk away
beside the lucky guy
Oh you will never know
The one who loves you so
Cause you don't know me

Afraid and shy I let my chance go by
The chance that you might love me too

You give your hand to me
And then you say goodbye
I watch you walk away
beside the lucky guy

Oh you will never know
The one who loves you so
Cause you don't know me
No, you don't know me -

Sometimes it's tough to make it through the day
It's hard enough when all your dreams
Just seem so far away
I step outside to face a shade of gray, oh
But even when darkness falls
I look into your eyes and I escape
Baby, you comfort me
Only you remind me to breathe
When my life becomes invisible
You're the only light I need
Baby, you, you comfort me
The faces change when time is on your side
The hand you trust can suddenly become a plate of lies
The winds of war can leave no place to hide, oh no
Until I hear a voice that calls
Lifts me up and carries me away
Baby, you comfort me
Only you remind me to breathe
When life makes me a prisoner
It's your love that sets me free
Baby, you, you comfort me
My shelter from the rage of the storm
You take me to the place in time
Where my soul lift safe and warm
Until I hear a voice that calls
Lifts me up and carries me away
Baby, you comfort me
Only you can make me believe
When the truth becomes invisible
You're the only light I need
When life makes me a prisoner
It's your love that sets me free
Baby, you, only you
Baby, you, you comfort me, oh yeah

You are so beautiful To me
You are so beautiful To me
Can't you see
You're everything I hoped for
You're everything I need
You are so beautiful To me
You are so beautiful To me
You are so beautiful To me
Can't you see
You're everything I hoped for
You're everything I need
You are so beautiful To me

Yesterday
all my troubles seemed so
far away
Now it looks
like they're here to stay
Oh I believe in yesterday
Suddenly
I'm not half the man
I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh yesterday came suddenly
Why she had to go
I don't know she wouldn't say
I said something wrong
Now I long for yesterday

Why she had to go
I don't know
she wouldn't say
I said but mustist
check gone an low
Now I long for yesterday
Yesterday
love was such an
easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
I believe in yesterday
I believe in yesterday
I believe in yesterday

I wake up while you lie sleepin'
I take one look at you and wonder
Am I still dreamin'
Are you some kind of angel
Come down to save me
Or just some place my imagination's tryin' to take me
What have I done to deserve what I feel
You give me somethin' that's too good to be real
How does a treasure like you fall into my hands
I need to know just one thing
I still don't understand

CHORUS
Why do you love me
Why do you give so much
How do you heal the pain within me
Is it the power of your touch
Now that you've opened up the heavens
For this heart of mine to see
I've become the richest man that I could ever be
Baby why, baby why me
Why me, Why me

I ain't got a clue, maybe just a notion
Sometimes I'm helplessly adrift out in the ocean
I feel like a child with one sole intention
In search of an answer that defies all comprehension

I'm in too deep but that's what you're all about
Got no hope or desire of finding my way out
How does a treasure like you fall into my hands
I need to know that one thing
Can ya help me understand

CHORUS X2
Why do you love me
Why do you give so much
How do you heal the pain within me
Is it the power of your touch
Now that you've opened up the heavens
For this heart of mine to see
I've become the richest man that I could ever be
Baby why, baby why me

Could've been anyone in this world, why me
Every lesson that I've learned
You've come to me and shown me
What it means to be loved(X2)

CHORUS X2
Why me, why me, why me, why me
Help me understand just what you've done to me
'Cause I'm the richest man that I could ever be
Tell me why, tell me why, baby

I wake up while you lie sleepin'
I take one look at you and wonder
Am I still dreamin'
Are you some kind of angel
Come down to save me
Or just some place my imagination's tryin' to take me
What have I done to deserve what I feel
You give me somethin' that's too good to be real
How does a treasure like you fall into my hands
I need to know just one thing
I still don't understand

CHORUS
Why do you love me
Why do you give so much
How do you heal the pain within me
Is it the power of your touch
Now that you've opened up the heavens

Why me, Why me

I ain't got a clue, maybe just a notion

CHORUS X2
Why me, why me, why me, why me
Help me understand just what you've done to me
'Cause I'm the richest man that I could ever be
Tell me why, tell me why, baby

We skipped the light Fantago
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kind of seasick
But the crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder
And the celing flew away
When we calld out for another drink
The waiter brought a tray

*And so it was that later
As the Miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale

She said ther is no reason
And the truth is plain to see
But I wandered through my playing cards
And I would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
who were leaving for the coast
And through my eyes were open
They might just as we've been closed

* Repeat (x2)

we skipped the light fandango
turned cartwheels cross the floor
i was feeling kind of seasick
the crowd called out for more
the room was humming harder
as the ceiling flew away
when we called out for another drink
but the waiter brought a tray

and so it was later
as the miller told his tale
that her face at first just ghostly
turned a shiter shade of pale

she said there is no reason
and the truth is plain to see
but i wander through my playing cards
and would not let it be
one of the sixteen vestal virgins

who are leaving for the coast
and although my eyes were open
they might just as well been closed

and so it was later
as the miller told his tale
that her face at first just ghostly
turned a whiter shade of pale

and so it was later
as the miller told his tale
that her face at first just ghostly
turned a whiter shade of pale -

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree-tops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

When the rain is fallin' and I'm overcome
With the doubts and demons of a love undone
No voice need tell me that you were the one

CHORUS
Oh I'll remember all my life
A love that set me free
Whatever comes of you and I
I will still believe
That once upon a time a dream came true
Whenever I remember loving you

Not a single moment, not a single kiss
Would I have traded, would I have missed
No other could ever move me like this

CHORUS
It's not that I don't feel the pain as deep as pain can be
But I will not be denied the light
Your love has brought to me
What you've given me will last forever
I refuse to lose the treasure
Of you inside my heart eternally

CHORUS
I'll always feel the love we once knew
As long as I remember loving you

Oh I'll remember loving you
Oh I'll remember all my life

When the rain is fallin' and I'm overcome
With the doubts and demons of a love undone
No voice need tell me that you were the one

CHORUS
Oh I'll remember all my life
A love that set me free
Whatever comes of you and I
I will still believe
That once upon a time a dream came true
Whenever I remember loving you

Not a single moment, not a single kiss
Would I have traded, would I have missed
No other could ever move me like this

CHORUS
It's not that I don't feel the pain as deep as pain can be
But I will not be denied the light
Your love has brought to me
What you've given me will last forever
I refuse to lose the treasure
Of you inside my heart eternally

CHORUS
I'll always feel the love we once knew
As long as I remember loving you

Oh I'll remember loving you
Oh I'll remember all my life

All of this time
I've been tellin' myself the truth
I love you
And that's the easiest thing to do, yeah
How do I describe
How ya turn my world around
Ain't no wonder why those words
Are those ones I've never found
Oh girl, there's so much I mean to say
And I'll keep tryin'
Till I finally find a way

CHORUS
When we make love
Heart to heart
Speak from our souls
We come shinin' through the dark
We reach the stars
Still by far the deepest part
Is (are) the moment(s) when the tears begin to fall
When there really are no words
That's when we say it all

And how many times when you're lyin' close to me
Have ya shown me baby
How much in life don't really mean a thing
All that matters and in all the world remain
Is your love and all ya mean to say
And then hey baby, the heaven in your eyes
Is all I see that means everything to me

CHORUS
There's a power in the silence
Where the truth is just too much
There's a place of pure emotion
Words were never meant to touch

CHORUS
When there are no words
That's when we say it
'Cause there are no words
When we say it
There are no words

Gonna break these chains around me,
Gonna learn to fly again
May be hard, may be hard, but I'll do it

When I fall in love
it will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love

In a restless world like this is
Love has ended before it's begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth
of the sun

When I give my heart
it will be completely
Or I'll never give my heart

And the moment
I can feel that
you feel that way too
It's when I fall in love with you

And the moment
I can feel that you feel that way too
It's when I fall in love with you

I guess you wonder where I've been
I searched to find a love within
I came back to let you know
Got a thing for you and I can't let go

My friends wonder what is wrong with me
Well I'm in a daze from your love, you see
I came back to let you know
Got a thing for you and I can't let go

Some people go around the world for love
But they may never find what they dream of
What you won't do, do for love
You've tried everything but you don't give up
In my world only you makes me do
For love what I would not do

But then I only want the best it's true
They can't believe the things I do for you
What you won't do, do for love
You've tried everything but you don't give up
In my world, only you makes me do
For love what I would not do
Makes me do for love what I would not do

I guess you wonder where I've been
I searched to find a love within
I came back to let you know
Got a thing for you and I can't let go

My friends wonder what is wrong with me
Well I'm in a daze from your love, you see
I came back to let you know
Got a thing for you and I can't let go

Some people go around the world for love
But they may never find what they dream of
What you won't do, do for love
You've tried everything but you don't give up
In my world only you makes me do
For love what I would not do

But then I only want the best it's true
They can't believe the things I do for you
What you won't do, do for love
You've tried everything but you don't give up
In my world, only you makes me do
For love what I would not do
Makes me do for love what I would not do

What are you doing the rest of your life?
North and South and East and West of your life
I have only one request of your life
That you spend it all with me
All the seasons and the times of your days
All the nickels and the dimes of your days
Let the reasons and the rhymes of your days
All begin and end with me
I want to see your face in every kind of light
In the fields of dawn and the forests of the night
And when you stand before the candles on a cake
Oh, let me be the one to hear the silent wish you make
Those tomorrows waiting deep in your eyes
In the world of love that you keep in your eyes
I'll awaken what's asleep in your eyes
It may take a kiss or two
Through all of my life
Summer, Winter, Spring, and Fall of my life
All I ever will recall of my life
Is all of my life with you

*Don't know much about history
Don't know much biology
Don't know much about a science book
Don't know much about the french I took
But I do know that I love you
And I know that if you love me, too
What a wonderful world this would be

Don't know much about geography
Don't know much trigonometry
Don't know much about algebra
Don't know what s slide rule is for
But I know that one and one is two
And if this one could be with you
What a wonderful world this would be

**I don't claim to be an 'A' student
But I'm tryin' to be
For maybe by being an 'A' student, baby
I can win your love for me

**Repeat

*Repeat

What a wonderful world this would be

Here we are, just goin' through the motions one more time
You look into my eyes, but you don't see me
Here I am, feelin' like a stranger in your arms
I touch you, I hold you, but lately I don't know you

Something is wrong but we go on from day to day
And we just pretend it all away
We act like nothing's changed
But in our hearts we know, it's not the same

[Chorus:]
'Cause we're not makin' love anymore
Baby, we're not makin' love like before
We may hold each other tight
Say that everything's alright
But we're not makin' love

Remember when, you couldn't wait to run into my arms
When the love inside my heart was all you needed
Remember when, you made me wish the night would never end
The fire, the thunder, we lived to love each other

If ever two hearts were one, then it was your and mine
But that was another place in time
Now all we have to show
Are memories of a dream we used to know

[Chorus]

When did we lose our way, we had it all
Don't know how it all just slipped away
But oh, can we get it back again
Is it too late, can we try, just one time, 'Cause darling....

[Chorus]

We're not makin' love anymore
Baby we're not makin' love like before
Can we find a way to try
Find the magic one more time
'Cause we're not makin' love

Here we are, just goin' through the motions one more time
You look into my eyes, but you don't see me
Here I am, feelin' like a stranger in your arms
I touch you, I hold you, but lately I don't know you

Something is wrong but we go on from day to day
And we just pretend it all away
We act like nothing's changed
But in our hearts we know, it's not the same

* 'Cause we're not makin' love anymore
Baby, we're not makin' love like before
We may hold each other tight
Say that everything's alright
But we're not makin' love

Remember when, you couldn't wait to run into my arms
When the love inside my heart was all you needed
Remember when, you made me wish the night would never end
The fire, the thunder, we lived to love each other

If ever two hearts were one, then it was your and mine
But that was another place in time
Now all we have to show
Are memories of a dream we used to know

* Repeat

When did we lose our way, we had it all
Don't know how it all just slipped away
But oh, can we get it back again
Is it too late, can we try, just one time, 'Cause darling....

* Repeat

We're not makin' love anymore
Baby we're not makin' love like before
Can we find a way to try
Find the magic one more time
'Cause we're not makin' love

Walkin'' in a winter wonderland


Sleigh bells ring, are you listenin''
In the lane, snow is glistenin''
A beautiful sight
We''re happy tonight
Walkin'' in a winter wonderland.

Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song
As we stroll along
Walkin'' in a winter wonderland.

In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he is Parson Brown
He''ll say "Are you married?", we''ll say "No, man,
But you can do the job when you''re in town."

Later on, we''ll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid
The plans that we''ve made
Walkin'' in a winter wonderland.

Sleigh bells ring, are you listenin''
In the lane, snow is glistenin''
A beautiful sight
We''re happy tonight
Walkin'' in a winter wonderland.

In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he is a circus clown
We''ll have lots of fun with Mr. Snowman
Until the other kiddies knock him down

When it snows, ain''t it thrillin
Though your nose gets a chillin
We''ll frolic and play
The Eskimo way
Walkin'' in a winter wonderland.
Walkin'' in a winter wonderland.
Walkin'' in a winter wonderland.

It's over now, gotta face it one last time
We'll never make it work, heaven knows we tried
Living this life, holdin' on for so long
I know it won't be easy, but it's time to be strong
Walk away, walk away
Don't you wait a minute longer
Walk away from the love we know is wrong
Walk away, walk away
Do it now while I can find the strength to say
Leave me now, before my heart won't let you
Walk away

You and I, never wanted it to end
Just have to find a way, to start livin' again
Oh, love of my life, I don't want to let you go
Leave behind the memories, a forever that we'll never know
Walk away, walk away
Don't you wait a minute longer
Walk away from the love we know is wrong
Walk away, walk away
Do it now while I can find the strength to say
Leave me now, before my heart won't let you
Walk away

Ya know we can't go on, ya know the reason why
That don't make it any easier, when it comes to saying
Good-bye
Walk away, walk away
Do it now while I can find the strength to say
Leave me now
Before my heart won't let you...
Walk away, walk away
Don't you wait a minute longer
Walk away from the love we know is wrong
Walk away, walk away
Do it now while I can find the strength to say
Leave me now, before my heart won't let you
Walk away

It's over now, gotta face it one last time
We'll never make it work, heaven knows we tried

Walk away

Now she's gone, from my life
And it nearly drove me out of my mind
Always thinking what she meant to me
All we left behind
Can't be afraid, startin' over
Gotta get up, start livin' again
When you're drownin' in your loneliness
The hurtin' never ends....
And the night rolls on
I search for some piece of mind
No, I can't be wrong
Won't get burned by desire this time
Gonna wait on love, holdin' on till I find the one
Wait on love, won't hold back
I promised myself, till it comes...
Gonna wait on love

Wanna get close with somebody
When a voice says I'm movin' too fast
It's hard to know when to walk away
Or try to make it last......
Still the night rolls on
Secrets are safe in the dark
And I stayed too long
I'm not gonna lie to my heart
Gonna wait on love, holdin' on till I find the one
Wait on love, won't hold back
I promised myself, till it comes...
Gonna wait on love

Someone I can run to
Just know that it's right
Trust my heart and soul to
For the rest of my life....

Gonna wait on love, holdin' on till I find the one
Wait on love, won't hold back
I promised myself, till it comes...
Gonna wait on love

Now she's gone, from my life
And it nearly drove me out of my mind
Always thinking what she meant to me
All we left behind
Can't be afraid, startin' over
Gotta get up, start livin' again
When you're drownin' in your loneliness
The hurtin' never ends....
And the night rolls on
I search for some piece of mind
No, I can't be wrong
Won't get burned by desire this time
Gonna wait on love, holdin' on till I find the one
Wait on love, won't hold back
I promised myself, till it comes...
Gonna wait on love

Wanna get close with somebody
When a voice says I'm movin' too fast
It's hard to know when to walk away
Or try to make it last......
Still the night rolls on
Secrets are safe in the dark
And I stayed too long
I'm not gonna lie to my heart
Gonna wait on love, holdin' on till I find the one
Wait on love, won't hold back
I promised myself, till it comes...
Gonna wait on love

Someone I can run to
Just know that it's right
Trust my heart and soul to
For the rest of my life....

Gonna wait on love, holdin' on till I find the one
Wait on love, won't hold back
I promised myself, till it comes...
Gonna wait on love

Recitar!...mentre preso dal delirio
non so piu quel che dico e quel che faccio!
Eppur...e d'uopa...sforzati!
Bah, se tu forse un uom?
Tu se' Pagliaccio!
Vesti la giubba e la faccia infarina.
La gente paga e rider vuole qua.
E se Arlecchin t'invola Colombina,
ridi, Pagliaccio...e ognun applaudira!
Tramuta in lazzi lo spasmo ed il pianto;
in una smorfia il singhiozzo e'l dolor...
Ridi Pagliaccio, sul tuo amore infranto!
Ridi del duol che t'avvelena il cor!On With The ShowGo on stage, while I'm nearly delirious?
I don't know what I'm saying or what I'm doing!
And yet, chin up! I'll try harder.
Bah, you think you're a man?
You're just a clown!
On with the show, man, and put on your white-face.
The people pay you and you must make them laugh.
And if Harlequin should steal your Columbine,
laugh, you're Pagliaccio, and the world will clap for you!
Turn into banter all your pain and sorrow,
and with your clown's face hide grief and distress...
Laugh loud, Pagliaccio, forget all your troubles,
Laugh off the pain that so empoisons your heart.

Una furtiva lagrima
Negli occhi suoi spunto:
Quelle festose giovani
Invidiar sembro.
Che piu ceracando io vo?
M'ama, lo vedo.Un solo instante i palpiti
Del suo bel cor sentir!
I miei sospir, confondere
Per poco a' suoi sospir!
Cielo, si puo morir!
Di piu non chiedo.
One Tear That Falls So FurtivelyOne tear that falls so furtively
from her sweet eyes has just sprung,
as if she envied all the youths
who laughingly passed her right by.
What could I want more than this?
She loves me! I see it.One moment just to hear her heart,
beating so close next to mine,
to hear my sighs like they were hers,
her sighings as if they were mine!
Heavens, please take me now:
All that I wanted is mine now!

I know I'm old 'til the moment when we dance
I finally realize I'm not so strong
Until my heart have had enough
So I close the door round up
But baby you prove me wrong

Now I remember what it's like to hurt so deep inside
God I never wanna know til you brought me back to life
Been forever since I love somebody till I cry because of you
Because of you
I can feel again
I can feel again

My heart was going through the motion of beating
But I was faking everything breath I take
You taught me with the single kiss
Simple truth I almost miss
What good to heart that can't break

Now I remember what it's like to hurt so deep inside
God I never wanna know til you brought me back to life
Been forever since I love somebody till I cry because of you
Because of you
I can feel again
Feel my life begin
Put an end to all this emptiness and let you in
Took me all enough and now that I know
Never got this feeling
Oh baby

Now I remember what it's like to hurt so deep inside
God I never wanna know til you brought me back to life
Been forever since I love somebody till I cry because of you
Cause of you
Baby every way you touch me makes my senses speak
Now I dream in eleven colours
Since you woke me from my sleep
More you give, the more I wonder
Where the hell I've been
Because of you
Because of you
I can feel again
I can feel again
I can feel

I'm so tired of being alone
I'm so tired of on-my-own
Won't you help me girl
Just as soon as you can

People say that I've found a way
To make you say that you love me
Hey baby, you didn't go for that
It's a natural fact
That I wanna come back
Show me where it's at, baby

I'm so tired of being alone
I'm so tired of on-my-own
Won't you help me girl
Soon as you can

I guess you know that I, uh, I love you so
Even though you don't want me no more
Hey hey hey hey, I'm cryin' tears
All through the years
I'll tell ya like it is
Honey, love me if you will

Yeah baby
Tired of being alone here by myself, now
I tell ya, I'm tired baby
I'm tired of being all wrapped up late at night
In my dreams, nobody but you, baby
Sometimes I wonder
If you love me like you say you do
You see baby, I been thinkin' about it, yeah
I been, I been wantin' to get next to you baby
Ya see, sometimes I hold my arms, I say mmmm hmmm hmmm
Yeah baby
Meeting you has proven to me
To be my greatest dream, yeah

Tired, baby

Sometimes late at night I get to wonderin' about you baby
Oh baby, baby

I'm so tired of being alone
I'm so tired of being alone...

I'm so tired of being alone
I'm so tired of on-my-own

Won't you help me girl
Soon as you can

Even though you don't want me no more
Hey hey hey hey, I'm cryin' tears
All through the years
I'll tell ya like it is
Honey, love me if you will

Yeah baby
Tired of being alone here by myself, now
I tell ya, I'm tired baby

In my dreams, nobody but you, baby
Sometimes I wonder

You see baby, I been thinkin' about it, yeah

Ya see, sometimes I hold my arms, I say mmmm hmmm hmmm

To be my greatest dream, yeah

Sometimes late at night I get to wonderin' about you baby
Oh baby, baby
I'm so tired of being alone
I'm so tired of being alone
I'm so tired of being alone...

So you say that you can't go on
Love left you cryin'
And you say all your hope is gone
And what's the use in tryin'
What you need is to have some faith
Shake off those sad blues
Get yourself a new view

Oh, nothing is a sad as it seems, you know
'Cause someday you'll laugh at the heartache
Someday, you'll laugh at the pain
Somehow you'll get through the heartache
Somehow you can get through the rain

* When love puts you through the fire
When love puts you through the test
Nothing cures a broken heart
Like time, love and tenderness
When you think your world is over
Baby just remember this
Nothing heals a broken heart
Like time, love and tenderness
Time, love and tenderness

I understand how you're feeling now
And what you've been through
But your world's gonna turn around
So baby don't you be blue
All it takes is a little time
To make it better
The hurt won't last forever

Oh, all the tears are gonna dry you know
'Cause someday you'll laugh at the heartache
Someday you'll laugh at the pain
You may be down on your luck
But baby that old lucks gonna change


* Repeat

Baby, oh baby you just need some
You just need some
Time, love and tenderness

Time, love and tenderness
The hurt ain't gonna last forever
Time, love and tenderness
Time, love and tenderness

So you say that you can't go on
Love left you cryin'
And you say all your hope is gone
And what's the use in tryin'
What you need is to have some faith
Shake off those sad blues
Get yourself a new view

Oh, nothing is a sad as it seems, you know
'Cause someday you'll laugh at the heartache
Someday, you'll laugh at the pain
Somehow you'll get through the heartache
Somehow you can get through the rain

[Chorus:]
When love puts you through the fire
When love puts you through the test
Nothing cures a broken heart
Like time, love and tenderness
When you think your world is over
Baby just remember this
Nothing heals a broken heart
Like time, love and tenderness
Time, love and tenderness

I understand how you're feeling now
And what you've been through
But your world's gonna turn around
So baby don't you be blue
All it takes is a little time
To make it better
The hurt won't last forever

Someday you'll laugh at the pain
You may be down on your luck
But baby that old luck's gonna change

Baby, oh baby you just need some
You just need some

Time, love and tenderness
The hurt ain't gonna last forever
Time, love and tenderness
Time, love and tenderness

[Chorus]

Baby, oh baby all you need
All you need is time, love and tenderness

So you say that you can't go on
Love left you cryin'

Baby, oh baby all you need
All you need is time, love and tenderness

Your heart is my need
And I love what it means to succeed
As your fate is my prize
Love you're breathe in me
It's what keeps me alive
Hold on 'till forever is gone
Hold on to whatever it takes
To go on and on and on, oh baby

This is the way that we live
This is the world where our dreams survive
Fight for the love that we give
The love that we make is all in the way that we live
The way that we live

In my dreams I can fly
In your arms, there's no earth, no sky
There's one truth, no lies
There's no distance between us
Just trust in our lives
Hold on 'till forever is gone
Hold on to whatever it takes to go on and on, oh baby

This is the way that we live
This is the world where our dreams survive
Fight for the love that we give
The love that we make is all in the way that we live
The way that we live, the way that we live

In our lives there's so much useless information
The truth is as simple as the air that we breathe
So many souls with the need for human affirmation
You and I choose to believe we are free!

This is the way that we live
This is the world where our dreams survive
Fight for the love that we give
The paths that we take it's all in the way that we live
This is the way that we live
This is the world where our dreams survive
Fight for the love that we give
This is the way that we live

As the years say good-bye
One by one on silent wings they fly
What will last, what is true
That's a lesson I learned lovin'you
This world will find its way somehow
I've got all that I need right here
right now

Chorus:

This is the time when the cold
winds blow
When the snow falls from Heaven
On the dreamers below
Baby this is the time when I need
to know
That your love will always be mine
Baby this is the time, Baby this is the time

Sometimes life leads you blind
To the one you've been wating
to find
Sometimes life lets you see
Just how great the gift of love can be
Now the light that fires the brightest stars
Is waiting to shine on this moment of ours

Chorus

If life is just a dream, I know within
my heart
Just getting closer to you
Is by far the sweetest part
So tell me one thing baby, the one
thing I need to know

Chorus

The way you wear your hat.
The way you sip your tea.
The memory of all that
No, no - they can't take that away from me.
The way your smile just beams.
The way you sing off-key.
The way you haunt my dreams.
No, no they can't take that away from me.
We may never, never meet again
On that bumpy road to love
butI'll always,
Always keep the memory of
The way you hold your knife
The way we danced until three.
The way you've changed my life.
No, no - they can't take that away from me.
No, they can't take that away from me.

We may never, never meet again
On that bumpy road to love
butI'll always,
Always keep the memory of
The way you hold your knife
The way we danced until three.
The way you've changed my life.
No, no they can't take that away from me.
No, they can't take that away
from me.

Gotta get close to me,
Gotta let love inside,
Gotta get into my arms
And listen to the voice of my heart
Oh ooh ooh

Searchin' my soul, searchin' for somethin'
To find a way to make you believe, yeah
And what can I say, words don't mean nothin'
Oh, what can I do, to prove what I'm feelin' for you

Oh, I could promise you love eternally
Swear you mean the world to me
Tell you over and over, get down on my knees
To hold you and make you believe

CHORUS:
Gotta get close to me, gotta let love inside
Gotta get into my arms and listen to the voice of my heart
Baby, the only way you'll know the sound inside my soul
Gotta get close to me and listen to the voice of my heart

Look into my eyes, don't look behind you
Let me take you where heaven is waiting
Right here in my arms, yeah
I promise this time real love will find you
Oh, what can I do, to just make this one thing come true

Oh, I would take your heart into my hands
Shelter you, make you understand
Tell you over and over, you're all that I need
To hold you and make you believe

CHORUS

Talkin' 'bout some deep emotion
You'll find it when you look in my eyes
Lookin' for some real emotion
Come into my life, come into my arms
Come closer, come closer
It don't mean a thing until I can make you believe

(Gotta get close to me, gotta let love inside
Gotta get into my arms)
And listen to THE VOICE OF MY HEART!

CHORUS

(Listen to the voice of my heart) Baby...
(Listento the voice of my heart) Gotta get close to me...
Gotta let love inside...(listen to the voice of my heart)
Baby...Get close to me...
(Listen to

The very thought of you and I forget to do
The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do
I'm living in a kind of daydream
I'm happy as a king
And foolish as it may seem
To me that's everything

The mere idea of you, the longing here for you
You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near to you
I see your face in every flower
Your eyes in stars above
It's just the thought of you
The very thought of you, my love

I see your face in every flower
Your eyes in stars above
It's just the thought of you
The very thought of you, my love

There are those who'll bet love comes but once, and yet
I'm oh, so glad we met the second time around
Love is lovelier the second time around
Just as wonderful with both feet on the ground
It's that second time you hear your love song sung
Makes you think perhaps that love,
like youth, is wasted on the young
Love's more comfortable the second time you fall
Like a friendly home the second time you call
Who can say what brought us to this miracle we've found?
There are those who'll bet love comes but once, and yet
I'm oh, so glad we met the second time around

Love is lovelier the second time around
Just as wonderful with both feet on the ground
Who can say what brought us to this miracle we've found?
There are those who'll bet love comes but once, and yet
I'm oh, so glad we met the second time around

As I'm looking back in time
My heart was young and the world was mine
Driven by desires blind
I remember someone told me as the years roll by
Remember one thing, the one thing
People come and people go
The way the winds of fortune blow
So hard to find that heart of gold
I remember someone told me
When you find it don't let go

CHORUS
You're the one thing, you're the one thing baby
Makes this world heaven
Makes the whole thing right
You're the one thing
That means something baby
The one I believe in, the one thing I need in my life


As I look into your lovin' eyes
There ain't no doubt just where my treasure lies
I've searched the earth for somethin' true
But the only truth that matters is my love for you


And that's the one thing, the one thing
Timeless as the stars, faithful as the sea
Like the endless risin' sun I know you'll be there for me
There's so much love inside this heart of mine could break
'Cause I know I've found forever and with every breath I take


CHORUS


And your love is like a rainbow
In a world that's black and white
You paint my dreams in color
And in your arms they come alive
You're my every inspiration
You're the wings that make me fly
You're my only destination
You're the one thing, the one thing in my life, ooh


You're the one thing, you're the one thing baby


CHORUS

As I'm looking back in time
My heart was young and the world was mine
Driven by desires blind
I remember someone told me as the years roll by
Remember one thing, the one thing
People come and people go
The way the winds of fortune blow
So hard to find that heart of gold
I remember someone told me
When you find it don't let go

CHORUS
You're the one thing, you're the one thing baby
Makes this world heaven
Makes the whole thing right

There ain't no doubt just where my treasure lies
I've searched the earth for somethin' true

Timeless as the stars, faithful as the sea
Like the endless risin' sun I know you'll be there for me
There's so much love inside this heart of mine could break

CHORUS


And your love is like a rainbow
In a world that's black and white
You paint my dreams in color
And in your arms they come alive
You're my every inspiration
You're the wings that make me fly
You're my only destination
You're the one thing, the one thing in my life, ooh


You're the one thing, you're the one thing baby


CHORUS

Shadows fall
Through the darkness we reach
As the hunger calls
Then you run
To the passion that takes you over

No lookin' back
The chance will never come again
You risk it all
For your dream
Won't let you go


CHORUS:
When you feel the hunger
Drivin' you on
To your one desire
Alone through an endless night
And the needs never satisfied


Through these eyes
Seen a river of tears
Seen the strong survive
Separate lives
And the emptiness makes you wonder
Blame it on love


You had it all and it's not enough
You'll never change
A slave to the fire
It never ends


Still you've got the hunger
Drivin' you on
To your one desire
Never deny your heart


The need to be satisfied
Still you feel the hunger
The primitive rite
Of a restless breed
Surrendering all your life
To the true nature of the beast


No looking back
The chance will never come again
You give it all to your dream
It never ends

Shadows fall
Through the darkness we reach
As the hunger calls
Then you run
To the passion that takes you over

No lookin' back
The chance will never come again
You risk it all
For your dream
Won't let you go


CHORUS:
When you feel the hunger
Drivin' you on
To your one desire
Alone through an endless night
And the needs never satisfied


Through these eyes
Seen a river of tears
Seen the strong survive
Separate lives
And the emptiness makes you wonder
Blame it on love


You had it all and it's not enough
You'll never change
A slave to the fire
It never ends


Still you've got the hunger
Drivin' you on
To your one desire
Never deny your heart


The need to be satisfied
Still you feel the hunger
The primitive rite
Of a restless breed
Surrendering all your life
To the true nature of the beast


No looking back
The chance will never come again
You give it all to your dream
It never ends

The way you wear your hat.
The way you sip your tea.
The memory of all that
No, no - they can't take that away from me.
The way your smile just beams.
The way you sing off-key.
The way you haunt my dreams.
No, no they can't take that away from me.
We may never, never meet again
On that bumpy road to love
butI'll always,
Always keep the memory of
The way you hold your knife
The way we danced until three.
The way you've changed my life.
No, no - they can't take that away from me.
No, they can't take that away from me.

We may never, never meet again
On that bumpy road to love
butI'll always,
Always keep the memory of
The way you hold your knife
The way we danced until three.
The way you've changed my life.
No, no they can't take that away from me.
No, they can't take that away
from me.

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by the fire
And folks dressed up like Eskimos

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa' s on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mothers' child is going to spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you
Merry Christmas to you

Merry Christmas to you

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by the fire
And folks dressed up like Eskimos

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa' s on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mothers' child is going to spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you
Merry Christmas to you

Merry Christmas to you

How do I begin to say
Words are not enough to show you how I really feel
And how the night is now just knowing you are here
I can show you night and day
I'll hold you til the end of all tomorrows disappear
Now it's all so clear
What a fool I would have been
If I never let you in
Inside of me
So faithfully stood by me

[Chorus:]
It started with a leap of faith, took me to a higher place
Though I wasn't ready to believe you were there to reach inside of me.
I thank you for the love you gave
For every step along the way
You taught me to believe again
Baby, that's the hardest part.
It's all because you took the journey
The journey to the center of my heart

Looking back I have to laugh
Thinking how I walked the earth so proudly on my own
When deep down I was scared to be alone
Somewhere down that lonely path
You appeared with love to follow anywhere I go
How did you know that you could turn my world around
This place I never would have found
Without you I would spend my life afraid to fly

[Chorus x2]

I got this somethin' to tell you
There ain't no doubt in my mind
All I'm askin' is to
keep you near forever
Just 'till the end of time
Baby I know where love grows
my heart is overflowin'
You're so fine and so true
I wanna spend my time
spend my time with you baby
I've got the best of love
With every breath
and every beat of my heart
You know you've got me
by my deepest emotion
'Cause you keep givin' me
the best of love
Passion and sweet inspiration
So rare and so hard to find
You are my journey
and my destination
Queen of this heart of mine
Baby I know where love grows
In my life is overflowin'
You're so fine and so true
I know I've got it all
all because of you baby
I've got the best of love
With every breath
and every beat of my heart
You know you've got me
by my deepest emotion
'Cause you keep givin' me
the best of love
With every moment that passes by
This love goes on
It keeps growin' stronger
And the more we're together
The best keeps gettin' better baby
I've got the best of love
With every breath
and every beat of my heart
You know you've got me
by my deepest emotion
'Cause you keep givin' me
the best of love
I've got the best of love
and every beat of my heart
You know you've got me
by my deepest emotion
'Cause you keep givin' me
the best of love
best of love
deepest emotion
You know you've got me
by my deepest emotion
'Cause you keep givin' me
the best of love
I've got the best of love
the best of love
best of love

I've got this somethin' to tell you
There ain't no doubt in my mind
All I'm askin' is to keep you near forever
Just till the end of time

Baby I know where love grows
My heart is overflowin'
You're so fine and so true
I wanna

I've got this somethin' to tell you
There ain't no doubt in my mind
All I'm askin' is to keep you near forever
Just till the end of time

Baby I know where love grows
My heart is overflowin'
You're so fine and so true
I wanna

Nobody like you, there's nobody like you

I've never been so sure about anything
This isn't like me, what's going on?
And I've never been more aware of anything
But I know it's real 'cause every time

Every time you're around me
I get everything tangled up inside me
And it's so hard to breathe
But I want you to know

Baby, you're the best part of me, yes, you are
The best, I finally know
The best, wanna let it show

Baby, you're the best part of me
The best, I finally know
The best, wanna let it show

Wanna show you off, let me show you off
Gotta show you off to the world
You're my heartbeat, to the world
You make my heart beat

Wanna show you off, let me show you off
Gotta show you off to the world
You're my heartbeat, to the world
You make my heart beat

I'm only half of me without you here
You put together all of the pieces
Missing from me, erased all of my fears
Baby, you turned me up inside

Every time you're around me
I get everything all lit up inside me
You made me believe
Now I need you to know

Baby, you're the best part of me, yes, you are
The best, I finally know
The best, wanna let it show

Baby, you're the best part of me
The best, I finally know
The best, wanna let it show

Wanna show you off, let me show you off
Gotta show you off to the world
You're my heartbeat, to the world
You make my heart beat

Wanna show you off, let me show you off
Gotta show you off to the world
You're my heartbeat, to the world
You make my heart beat

There's nobody but you that can do what you do
I finally found forever with you in my life
There's nobody but you that can do what you do
Finally found forever with you in my life

Baby, you're the best part of me, yes, you are
The best, I finally know
The best, wanna let it show

Baby, you're the best part of me
The best, I finally know
The best, wanna let it show

Wanna show you off, let me show you off
Gotta show you off to the world
You're my heartbeat, to the world
You make my heart beat

Wanna show you off, let me show you off
Gotta show you off to the world
You're my heartbeat, to the world
You make my heart beat

There's nobody like you who can do what you do
Nobody like you, nobody like you
Nobody like you, nobody like you
Nobody like you, nobody like you

There was a time
We thought our dream was over
When you and I
Had surely reached the end
Still here we are
The flame as strong as ever
All because we both kept holding on
We know we can weather any storm

[Chorus:]
Baby, that's what love is all about
Two hearts that find a way, somehow
To keep the fire burning
It's something we could never live without
It it takes forever
We can work it out
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
Baby, that's what love is all about

As time goes by
We've learned to rediscover
The reason why
This dream of our survives
Through thick and thin
We're destined for each other
Knowing we can reach the other side
Far beyond the mountains of our pride

[Chorus]

Ridin' the good times is easy
The hard times can tear you apart
There'll be times in your heart
When the feelin' is gone
But ya keep on believing
And ya keep holdin' on

Baby, that's what love is all about
Two hearts that find a way, somehow
To keep the dream from dying
It's something we could never live without
If it takes forever
We can work it out
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
Baby, that's what love is all about

There was a time
We thought our dream was over
When you and I
Had surely reached the end
Still here we are
The flame as strong as ever
All because we both kept holding on
We know we can weather any storm

Baby, that's what love is all about
Two hearts that find a way, somehow
To keep the fire burning
It's something we could never live without
If it takes forever
We can work it out
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
Baby, that's what love is all about

As time goes by
We've learned to rediscover
The reason why
This dream of ours survives
Through thick and thin
We're destined for each other
Knowing we can reach the other side
Far beyond the mountains of our pride

Baby, that's what love is all about
Two hearts that find a way, somehow
To keep the fire burning
It's something we could never live without
If it takes forever
We can work it out
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
Baby, that's what love is all about

Ridin' the good times is easy
The hard times can tear you apart
There'll be times in your heart
When the feelin' is gone
But ya keep on believing
And ya keep holdin' on

Baby, that's what love is all about
Two hearts that find a way, somehow
To keep the dream from dying
It's something we could never live without
If it takes forever
We can, we can work it out
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
Baby, that's what love is all about

That's life (that's life), that's what all the people say
You're ridin' high in April, shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change that tune
When I'm back on top, back on top in June
I said that's life (that's life),
and as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks stompin' on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down
'cause this fine old world, it keeps spinnin' around
I've been a puppet, a pauper,
a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out
and I know one thing
Each time I find myself flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race
That's life (that's life), I tell you I can't deny it
I thought of quitting, baby,
but my heart just ain't gonna buy it
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try
I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly
I've been a puppet, a pauper,
a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out
and I know one thing
Each time I find myself layin' flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race
That's life (that's life), that's life and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cuttin' out but my heart won't buy it
But if there's nothin' shakin' come this here July
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball a-and die
My, my!

I said a lot of things
A lot of things I didn't mean to say
Never meant to hurt you
I was wrong to fight with you that way
But I'm only human
I let my pride deceive me
You're the lover I need in my life
If you still don't believe me
Baby take a look at my face
Tell me you don't see what you started
No one's gonna take your place
Right here by my side
Baby take a look at my face
You're never gonna be broken-hearted
If you still don't know what you mean to me
Take a look at my face

From the day I found you
You brought light into my heart
So don't keep your love away from me
Don't leave me in the dark
Though I never tell you
What my heart's concealing
You're the lover I need in my life
Can't you feel what I'm feeling
Baby take a look at my face
Tell me you don't see what you started
No one's gonna take your place
Baby take a look at my face
You're never gonna be broken-hearted
If you still don't know what you mean to me
Take a look at my face

You could think it over
You could make it easy
I'm the lover you need in your life
If you still don't believe me
Baby take a look at my face
Tell me you don't see what you started
No one's gonna take your place
Right here by my side
Baby take a look at my face

(You're a survivor, you're a survivor, survivor, survivor)

You can't believe that your whole worlds shattered
You used to have it all under control
It's like you've lost everything that mattered
And you're afraid to fall
You've been though it all too many times

And though I know your pain
Without it there's no way
So the say
Yeah oh
You're lying in the rain
Letting it fall across your face
Just to feel alive

[Chorus]
So let's hear it for the ones
Who know what it feels like
To survive a broken heart
Put one hand up in the sky
Tonight
If you know what it feels like
To survive a broken heart
Survivor of a broken heart (You're a survivor, you're a survivor, survivor, survivor)
Survivor of a broken heart (You're a survivor, you're a survivor, survivor, survivor)

You're searching through all the thought's you've gathered
And it feels impossible
To make it through another day
Where do you turn when your faiths been scattered
And nothing is logical
You've been through it all too many times

And you can feel your pain
But you can't win before you lose
So they say
Yeah oh
You search for who's to blame
When you let go you find the truth
Is just to feel alive

[Chorus]

A thousand pieces on the ground
How do you put them back together once again
And when your world comes crashing down
That's when you rise and find your way up
That's when you find out what you're made of

[Chorus]

Survivor of a broken heart (You're a survivor, you're a survivor, survivor, survivor)
Survivor of a broken heart (You're a survivor, you're a survivor, survivor, survivor)

Summertime
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high
Your daddy's rich
And your mamma's
so good lookin' baby
So hush my little darling
Don't you cry
One of these mornings
You're gonna wake up singing
You're gonna spread your wings
And take to the sky
But till that morning
Nothing's ever gonna harm you
oh no
With your mama
and your daddy standing by

But till that morning
Nothing's ever gonna harm you
oh no
So hush my little darling
Don't you cry
It's summertime
And the livin' is easy
The fish are jumpin'
don't you know
they're jumpin' baby
And the cotton is high
Your daddy is rich so rich
And your mamma's
so good lookin' baby
Don't you hush my little darling
Don't you cry
It's summertime
Summertime
Summertime
Summertime
Don't you cry
Don't you cry baby
Don't you cry
Don't you cry baby
Don't you cry
Summertime
Summertime

Don't you cry

The summer wind, came blowin' in from across the sea
It lingered there to touch your hair and walk with me
All summer long we sang a song
and then we strolled that golden sand
Two sweethearts and the summer wind
Like painted kites,
those days and nights, they went flyin' by
The world was new beneath a blue umbrella sky
Then softer than a piper man one day it called to you
I lost you, I lost you to the summer wind
The autumn wind and the winter winds,
they have come and gone
And still the days, those lonely days, they go on and on
And guess who sighs his lullabies
through nights that never end
My fickle friend, the summer wind
The summer wind
Warm summer wind
Mmm, the summer wind

In the night I hear you speak
Turn around, you're in my sleep
Feel your hands inside your soul
You're holding on and won't let go

I've tried running but there's no escape
Can't bend them, and (I know) I just can't break these...

Steel bars, wrapped all around me
I've been your prisoner since the day you found me
I'm bound forever, till the end of time
Steel bars wrapped around this heart of mine

Trying hard to recognize
See the face behind the eyes
Feel your haunting ways like chains
'Round my heart they still remain

I'm still running, but there's nowhere to hide
My love for you has got me locked up inside these...

Steel bars, wrapped all around me
I've been your prisoner since the day you found me
I'm bound forever, till the end of time
Steel bars wrapped around this heart of mine

And with every step I take
Every desperate move I make
It's clear to me
What can all my living mean
When time itself is so obscene
When time itself don't mean a thing
I'm still loving you

Steel bars, wrapped all around me
I've been your prisoner since the day you found me
I'm bound forever, till the end of time
Steel bars wrapped around this heart of mine

In the night I hear you speak
Turn around, you're in my sleep, yeah, yeah


Feel your hands inside my soul
Hold it on and you won't let go, yeah

Everynight, I would lie awake
Alone in my bed
Think of you, then I'd cry myself
To sleep, that's what you said
You were so sure of yourself
By now I'd be out of my mind
So where is the madness
The pain and the sadness
You swore you'd be leavin' behind

[Chorus:]
Start breaking my heart
Start bringin' me down
Start breaking my heart
Like you said you'd do to me
Start breaking my heart
Tearin' me apart, breaking my heart
Start breaking my heart

Lookin' back, you were good at diggin'
Into my soul
All the time, oh I should've understood
You just needed control
Finally you realized, how much you were
Foolin' yourself
Ya thought you'd desert me
Thought you could hurt me
By leavin' me for somebody else

[Chorus]

You're breaking your promise to me
You swore I'd be fallin' apart

[Chorus]

You've been gone girl, I don't even
Know how long
Come on and prove me wrong
You can start by breaking my heart
Breaking my heart, breaking my heart

Baby, we've been in and out of love so many times


We keep reaching the end of the line
And giving up on each other
And darling, I don't think we can survive one
more good-bye
Can't cry one more tear or lie one more lie
We got one last chance to make it
But that's all we need if we just take it

CHORUS
Baby, we gotta stand up for love
Gotta hold on
'Cause I know what we got is worth
fighting for
And I know for sure, right or wrong
This is where we belong
Baby, this time we gotta stand up for love
Stand together
Can't settle for less than forever
I know there's nothing we can't rise above
If we just stand up for love


Baby, after everything we put each other
through
And no matter what damage we do
We still need one another
And sometimes when I hold you in my arms
somehow I see
As bad as we've been that's how good we can be
But we can't just say we want it
Gotta lay all our tomorrows on it


CHORUS


For all the dues we've paid
The magic we two have made
For all we've meant to one another
Once and for all we've gotta stand up
for each other


Baby, we gotta stand up for love
Gotta hold on
'Cause we know what we got is worth
fighting for
And we know for sure, right or wrong
Baby, this time we gotta stand up for love
Now or never
Can't settle for less than forever
I know there's nothing we can't rise above
If we just stand up for love
