JENNIFER PAIGE:: STAY THE NIGHT [12]



Jennifer Paige (born September 3, 1973) is an American singer-songwriter who achieved success with the 1998 pop hit "Crush". She is considered to be one of the 1990s' biggest one-hit wonders.

Jennifer Paige was born in Marietta, Georgia, a suburb of Atlanta. At the age of five she began singing at local coffeehouses and restaurants with her older brother Chance Scoggins. She continued on to the performing arts school Pebblebrook High School to study voice, dance and drama.

At the age of 17, she toured the country with a top 40 covers act, Vivid Image, and eventually relocated to Los Angeles. In August 1996, she performed in her hometown, Atlanta, in front of 50,000 people at the Olympic Games with the 10-piece covers band, "Joe's Band". The same year, Paige teamed up with producer Andy Goldmark. They began with a dance version of Aretha Franklin's classic, Chain of Fools. The record instantly came to the attention of the German indie label Edel Records, whose president, Jonathan First, was searching for a fresh-faced pop act to establish overseas presence. He was so impressed by Paige's talent that he flew to Los Angeles and gave her a record contract.

1. BETWEEN YOU AND ME




They say the road of life
Is paved with good intentions we have
No matter how we try
To keep our promises, sometimes we just can't
A little bit of faith can be wondrous
It's the only place we can turn to

Between you and me
There's enough love that I believe
We'll rise above and we'll get through anything
Between you and me

They say that bridges burn
From one soul to another if you don't tend the flame
And I pray somehow we've learned
To build an understanding from the ashes that remain
Not enough faith can be dangerous
It's the only place we can turn to


Between you and me
There's enough love that I believe
We'll rise above and we'll get through anything
Between you and me

There are times when I don't feel safe
Like we're not on solid ground
But I trust your eyes
When I see you look this way
I know we'll find it, we're gonna find it

Between you and me
There's enough love that I believe
We'll rise above and we'll get through anything
Between you

Between you and me
There's enough love that I believe
We'll rise above and we'll get through anything
Between you and me

2. JUST TO HAVE YOU


It's a full moon night, something ain't right
Wind is banging my door
Call me insane, I want this pain
But it's justified, justified, justified
I swore that I would never be this way
But I can't stop this runaway train

I can't get you out of my dreams
I tell you I’d do anything
Just to have you here with me
I know that I’m in way too deep
Cos I would give up everything
Just to have you here with me

There's a fire in my head, making me sweat
Keeps me coming back for more
We'll it's crazy in here cos I want these tears
But it's justified, justified, justified
I swore you'd never make me feel this way
But I can't stop this runaway train

Now that I can't get you out of my dreams
I tell you I’d do anything

Just to have you here with me
I know that I’m in way too deep
And I would give up everything
Just to have you here with me

Don't know right from wrong
Don't know where I’m going
Spending all my nights in a restless bed
For your love I’m waiting
It's too late, it's too late to hold my heart steady

Spending my nights in a restless bed
I can’t get you out my dreams
There’s a fire raging in my head
I tell you I’d do anything
Just to have you here with me
I know that I’m in way too deep
And I would give up everything
Just to have you here with me
Oh yeah, oh yeah baby
Oh, oh
Just to have you here
Just to have you
Just to have you near

3. FEEL SO FAR AWAY




What have we become
It seems our hearts have come undone
And even when I hold you in my arms you're out of reach
I would walk a thousand miles to get to you
Ten thousand more to get you back into me

But the more I reach the more you run
I can't get to you
The more I reach the more you run
I feel so far, I feel so far away
From where you are, I feel so far away, yeah

Silently pretending
We're not alone and nothing's ending
Lost in the familiar
We've forgotten how to dream
I remember a time when you and I believed in forever
I want that again

But the more I reach the more you run
I can't get to you
The more I reach the more you run

I feel so far, I feel so far away
From where you are, I feel so far away

I’m standing on the edge
Looking for a bridge
Reaching out but I can't get to you, get to you
I’m standing on the edge
Looking for a bridge
Do everything I do to get to you, get to you
I’m standing on the edge
Looking for a bridge
I’m reaching out but I can't get to you, get to you

I feel so far, I feel so far away
From where you are, I feel so far away
I feel so far, I feel so far away
From where you are, I feel so far away

I'm standing on the edge
Looking for a bridge
I’m reaching out but I can't get to you, get to you

4. LET IT RAIN


It's in your eyes, you wanna cry
But you're afraid to let go
Sometime the past comes rushing back
Emotions overflow

You don't have to worry, you know I’ll understand
I wanna help you through it, any way I can
I’m gonna be here for you, take me by the hand
Break through these skies of gray, don't hold back

Let it rain, let your teardrops wash away the pain
By your side I promise to remain
My love will pour like sunshine through the rain
Let it rain

With every touch I’ll earn your trust
You'll see my love is for real
So let me in, I’ll show you how to love again
Don't have to hide how you feel

I’ll be here to hold you, hold you when you cry
With my tenderness I’ll push the clouds aside
We'll make tonight the night you leave it all behind
Break through these skies of gray, don't hold back

Let it rain, let your teardrops wash away the pain
By your side I promise to remain
My love will pour like sunshine through the rain
Let it rain

You'll see a brighter day
Let my love lead the way
To a rainbow in the sky
Tears of joy will fill your eyes
Let it rain, let it rain

Let it rain
Wash away, gonna wash away those teardrops, yes
Wash away those teardrops
Baby don’t hold it in
Oh yeah let it rain

5. BEAUTIFUL



I’m looking for a way to feel you hold me
To feel your heartbeat just one more time
I’m reaching back, trying to touch the moment
Each precious minute that you were mine
How do you prepare when you love someone this way
To let them go a little more each day

The stars we put in place
The dreams we didn’t waste
The sorrows we embraced
The world belonged to you and me
The oceans that we crossed
The innocence we’ve lost
The hurting at the end
I’d go there again cos it was beautiful
It was beautiful

Some days missing you is overwhelming
When it hits me, you’re not coming back
And in my darkest hours I have wondered
Was it worth it for the time we had
My thoughts get kinda scattered
But one thing I know is true
I bless the day that I found you

The stars we put in place
The dreams we didn’t waste
The sorrows we embraced
The world belonged to you and me
The oceans that we crossed
The innocence we’ve lost
The hurting at the end
I’d go there again cos it was beautiful
It was beautiful

Oh the rules we stepped aside
The fear that we defied
Oh the thrill of the ride
The fire in our hearts that burned
The oceans that we crossed
The innocence we’ve lost
The hurting at the end
I’d go there again cos it was beautiful
So beautiful yeah, it was beautiful

6. STRANDED


You know it only breaks my heart
To see you standing in the dark
Alone, waiting there for me to come back
I’m too afraid to show

If it's coming over you like it's coming over me
Crashing like a tidal wave that drags me out to sea
I wanna be with you if you wanna be with me
Crashing like a tidal wave, I don't want to be
Stranded, stranded, stranded
So baby come back to me
So baby come back to me

I can only take so much
These tears are turning me to rust
I know you're waiting there for me to come back
I'm too afraid to show

If it's coming over you like it's coming over me
Crashing like a tidal wave that drags me out to sea
I wanna be with you if you wanna be with me
Crashing like a tidal wave, I don't want to be stranded

It’s coming over you, it’s coming over me
It’s coming over you, yeah, yeah, yeah

I miss you, my baby
Without you I'm stranded
I love you, so come back
I'm not afraid to show

Crashing like a tidal wave, drags me out to sea
I wanna be with you, you wanna be with me
Crashing like a tidal wave, I don't want to be stranded

It's coming over you, it's coming over me
It's coming over you
So baby come back to me
So baby come back to me
It’s coming over you

It’s coming over you, it’s coming over me
It’s coming over you
Oh baby, come back to me, oh yeah
So baby, come back to me
So baby, come back to me
I don’t want to be stranded

7. CRUSH




Ahh, crush, ahhh

I see ya blowin' me a kiss
It doesn't take a scientist
To understand what's going on baby
If you see something in my eye
Let's not over analyze
Don't go too deep with it baby

So let it be what it'll be
Don't make a fuss and get crazy over you and me
Here's what I'll do
I'll play loose
Run like we have a day with destiny

It's just a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do depends on you
Sha-la-la-la, Sha-la-la-la

It's raising my adrenaline
You're banging on a heart of tin
Please don't make too much of it baby
You say the word "forevermore"
That's not what I'm looking for
All I can commit to is "maybe"

So let it be what it'll be
Don't make a fuss and get crazy over you and me
Here's what I'll do
I'll pay loose
Run like we have a day with destiny

It's just a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do depends on you
Sha-la-la-la, Sha-la-la-la

Vanilla skies (vanilla skies)
White picket fences in your eyes
A vision of you and me

It's just a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do depends on you
Sha-la-la-la
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just some little thing
Not like everything I do depends on you
Sha-la-la-la
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just some little thing
Not like everything I do

8. STAY THE NIGHT



Don't know what you intended
Am I just part of your game
Boy, you started a fire
I can't identify it
You're only fanning the flame
It's the rule of desire

Don't keep me waiting here for your love
Come and show me what you're made of

Stay the night
And I'll decide
If it's right
Cause I won't wait forever baby
Stay the night
Come inside
Show me why
I Should let you
Stay the night

Use your imagination
Don't treat me like the rest
Show me you'll do it better
This kind of situation
Requires only the best
Boy, it's now or never

I'm just waiting here for your love
Come and show me what you're made of

Stay the night
And I'll decide
If it's right
Cause I won't wait forever baby
Stay the night
Come inside
Show me why
I Should let you
Stay the night

This could go either way
So don't just stand there at my door
Cause I can't
No, I can't fight this feeling anymore
No more

Stay the night
And I'll decide
If it's right
Cause I won't wait forever baby
Stay the night
Come inside
Show me why
I Should let you
Stay the night

9. HERE WITH ME



In my head
I have dreams
I have visions of many things
Questions longings in my mind

Pictures fill my head
I feel so trapped instead
But trapped doesn't seem so bad
Cause you are here

It doesn't mean anything
Without you here with me
And I can try to justify
But I still need you here with me

In my heart I had hope
Built on dreams I'll never know
Answers to love left behind
Visions filled my head

I felt so trapped instead
But trapped didn't seem so bad
Cause you were near

It doesn't mean anything
Without you here with me
And I can try to justify
But I still need you here with me

I can't do anything without you
You give me strength to do anything
And I can't be everything I try to
You saved me from the everything I couldn't be

It doesn't mean anything
Without you here with me
And I can try to justify
But I still need you here with me

Need you here with me
I need you here with me

10. SOMEWHERE, SOMEDAY


When clouds above you start to pour
And all of doubts rage like a storm
And you don't know who you are anymore
Let me help you find what you've been searching for

(CHORUS)
Somewhere there's a field and a river
You can let your soul run free
Someday let me be the giver
Let me bring you peace
Somewhere there's a break in the weather
Where your heart and spirit go free
Someday it'll be for the better
Let me bring you peace

I know you think no one sees
The weight on your shoulders
But you can't fool me
And aren't you tired of standing so tall
Let me the one to catch you when you fall

(CHORUS)

Let me bring you joy, let me bring you peace
Take the tears that you cry, trust them to me
Let me give you heart, and give you hope
Be the one constant love that you've never known

11. TELL ME WHEN



I talk to you out loud
Driving south on Kings road
I've got you in my coat here
Written down
I find new ways to want you
But I can't reach you
So I head downtown

It's forever later
You're so far away
As night becomes day
I remember the way you held me
Baby won't you

Tell me when so I keep believing
Tell me again I'm on your mind all the time
Tell me when, don't wanna lose this feeling
Tell me again when you'll be mine
When you'll be mine
Tell me when

Flying standby
On the redeye when you saw me
You left and I heard voices in my head
A happy accident that had to happen
A car crash in my bed

It's forever later
You're so far away
As night becomes day
I remember the way you held me
Baby won't you

Tell me when so I keep believing
Tell me again I'm on your mind all the time
Tell me when, don't wanna lose this feeling
Tell me again when you'll be mine
When you'll be mine
Tell me when

It's forever later
You're so far away
I remember the way you held me, baby

Tell me when so I keep believing
Tell me again I'm on your mind all the time
Tell me when, don't wanna lose this feeling
Tell me again when you'll be mine
When you'll be mine
Tell me when

12. MAKE ME



You look so confident
The way you work the room
Like you're heaven sent
Everybody checking you
Something about it baby
Keepin' me amused
Hate to admit it but I
Kind of like your attitude

Things that you do and the things that you say
Gotta be for real if you want me to stay
Think that I'll jump if you want me to play
Well, you gotta do better than that

Make me
Give you everything I've got
A reason to let you in my private thoughts
Take me
To a higher place where I've never been
The way that no one else can
Make me

I see the wheels are turning
You've always been the best
You think you're the first
You better second guess
Before we get to that
You gotta go like this
Show me I'm on top of
Your most wanted list

Things that you do and the things that you say
Gotta be for real if you want me to stay
Think that I'll jump if you want me to play
Well, you gotta do better than that

Make me
Give you everything I've got
A reason to let you in my private thoughts
Take me
To a higher place where I've never been
The way that no one else can
Make me

No easy come
No easy go
The way to my heart is through my soul
I'm giving you
The simple fact
Think that I'll jump if you want me to play
Well, you gotta do better than that

Make me
Give you everything I've got
A reason to let you in my private thoughts
Take me
To a higher place where I've never been
The way that no one else can
Make me
