1. ALL I NEED IS LOVE


All I Need Is Love lyrics

There's nothing wrong
Wrong with me
I'm just a little down and out
Don't need a drug to rescue me
That's something I can live without

[Bridge:]
One day I'm up, the next I'm down
One day you're here, the next you're gone
And I'm just a little bit
I'm just a little bit lonely

[Chorus:]
All I need is love
And I'm gonna pull through

All I need is love
To shake off the blues
I need your sweet, sweet love
To get me on my feet
Baby, you're love is all I need

Theres no horizon
That I can see
There is no light in the dark
There's no one here
Here but me
And the longing in my heart

[Bridge]
[Chorus]

[Solo]

[Chorus]

2. MAKING LOVE


i know just how to whisper
and i know just how to cry
i know just where to find the answers
and i know just how to lie

i know just how to fake it
and i know just how to scheme
i know just when to face the truth
and then i know just when to dream

and i know just where to touch you
and i know just what to prove
i know when to pull you closer
and i know when to let you loose

and i know the night is fading
and i know the time´s gonna fly
and i´m gonna tell you everything i gotta tell you
but i know i gotta give it a try

and i know the roads to riches
and i know the ways to fame
i know all the rules and then i know how to break them
and i always know the name of the game

but i don´t know how to leave you
and i´ll never let you fall
and i don´t know how you do it
making love out of nothing at all

out of nothing at all
out of nothing at all

out of nothing at all (making love)
out of nothing at all (making love)
out of nothing at all (making love)
out of nothing at all

every time i see you all the rays of the sun
are streaming through the waves in your hair

and every star in the sky
is taking aim at your eyes like a spotlight

the beating of my heart is a drum and it´s lost
and it´s looking for a rythm like you
you can take the darkness from the pit of the night
and turn into a beacon burning endlessly bright

i gotta follow it
cause everything i own, now
it´s nothing till i give it to you

i can make you find your power
i can make you lose your fear
i can make your body do some very magical things
i´ll make your inhibitions all disappear
i can make tonight forever
or i can make it disappear by the dawn
and i can make you every promise that has ever been made
and i can make all your demons be gone

but i´m never gonna make it without you
do you really wanna see me crawl
and i´m never gonna make it like you do
making love out of nothing at all

(making love) out of nothing at all
(making love) out of nothing at all
(making love)

out of nothing at all (making love)
out of nothing at all (making love)
out of nothing at all (making love)...

3. I WANT YOU


Oh make me feel this way
Oh let me make you feel this way
No more talking night and day
C'mon let me make you feel this way
The kind of loving' to make you stay
You've got the kind of style it takes
To make me tremble and make me shake
Gotta here you whisper in my ear
It takes me to another Galaxy
I've been around the world and finally I've found love
And now I aint gonna let you go
Don't run for cover don't be my lover

I want you baby I want to make it feel right
I want you baby I want you every night

Oh let me feel this way
No more talking night and day

I'll stay with you baby for ever and a day
But you know sweet baby I'll be with you
Just as long as it is good
We'll make it through

And I aint gonna let you go

I want you baby I want you every night

4. IF I SING YOU A LOVE SONG




If I sing you a love song, will you always remember
Will you hear it on lonely nights when I'm not around
If I sing you a love song, will you hear it forever
To remind you how I care and how I needed you

Love songs last longer than lovers ever do
So baby, let me sing a love song for you
Love songs don't leave you but lovers often do
Oh baby, I'm afraid it could happen to me and you

If I sing you a love song, let it always be with you

When the others have gone away, let it still be there

Love songs last longer than lovers ever do
So baby, let me sing a love song for you
Love songs don't leave you like lovers often do
Oh baby, I'm afraid it could happen to me and you

Oh, oh romance
Oh, lonely nights when I’m not around
Baby, it’s a love song
So always remember on lonely nights
I’ll sing you a love song to keep you close to me

5. TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE HEART



[Songwriters: Jim Steinman]



Turn around, every now and then
I get a little bit lonely and you're never coming round
Turn around, every now and then
I get a little bit tired of listening to the sound of my tears

Turn around, every now and then
I get a little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by
Turn around, every now and then
I get a little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes

Turn around, bright eyes
Every now and then I fall apart
Turn around, bright eyes
Every now and then I fall apart

Turnaround, every now and then
I get a little bit restless and I dream of something wild
Turnaround, every now and then
I get a little bit helpless and I'm lying like a child in your arms

Turnaround, every now and then
I get a little bit angry and I know I've got to get out and cry
Turnaround, every now and then
I get a little bit terrified but then I see the look in your eyes

Turnaround bright eyes
Every now and then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes
Every now and then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever

And we'll only be making it right
'Cause we'll never be wrong

Together we can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks

I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna to start tonight
Forever's gonna to start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
Now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do

A total eclipse of the heart

Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

Turnaround, bright eyes
Turnaround, bright eyes

Turnaround, every now and then
I know you'll never be the boy you always wanted to be
Turnaround, every now and then
I know you'll always be the only boy who wanted me the way that I am

Turnaround, every now and then
I know there's no one in the universe as magical and wondrous as you
Turnaround, every now and then
I know there's nothing any better, there's nothing that I just wouldn't do

Turnaround bright eyes
Every now and then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes
Every now and then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you'll only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever

And we'll only be making it right
'Cause we'll never be wrong

Together we can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do, I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks

I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
Now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart

Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

A total eclipse of the heart
A total eclipse of the heart
Turn around, bright eyes
Turn around, bright eyes

Turn around

6. I NEED A HERO

Songwriters: Pitchford, Dean; Steinman, Jim;

Where have all the good men gone
And where are all the Gods?
Where's the street-wise Hercules
To fight the rising odds?

Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
Late at night I toss and I turn
And I dream of what I need

I need a hero, I'm holding out for a hero
'Til the end of the night
He's gotta be strong
And he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight

I need a hero, I'm holding out for a hero
'Til the morning light
He's gotta be sure
And it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life
(Larger than life)

Somewhere after midnight
In my wildest fantasy
Somewhere just beyond my reach
There's someone reaching back for me

Racing on the thunder
And rising with the heat
It's gonna take a Superman
To sweep me off my feet

I need a hero, I'm holding out for a hero
'Til the end of the night

He's gotta be strong
And he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight

I need a hero, I'm holding out for a hero
'Til the morning light
He's gotta be sure
And it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life
I need a hero, I'm holding out for a hero
?Til the end of the night

Up where the mountains meet the heavens above
Out where the lightning splits the sea
I could swear that there's someone somewhere watching me
Through the wind and the chill and the rain
And the storm and the flood
I can feel his approach like a fire in my blood

I need a hero, I'm holding out for a hero
'Til the end of the night
He's gotta be strong
And he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight

I need a hero, I'm holding out for a hero
'Til the morning light
He's gotta be sure
And it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life

7. IT'S A HEARTACHE


It's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache

Hits you when it's too late
Hits you when you're down
It's a fool's game

Nothing but a fool's game
Standing in the cold rain

Feeling like a clown.

It's a heartache

Nothing but a heartache.
Love him till your arms break

Then he lets you down.
It ain't right with love to share
When you find he doesn't care for you.
It ain't wise to need someone
As much as I depended on you.


It's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache

Hits you when it's too late
. . .

It ain't r'ight with love to share
. . .

Oh it's a heartache

Nothing but a heartache.
Love him till your arms break

Then he let's you down
It's a fool's game

Standing in the cold rain

Feeling like a clown.

It's a heartache
Love him till your arms break
Then he let's you down
It's a heartache
. . .

8. FASTER THAN THE SPEED OF LIGHT



I don't want to let another minute get by
They're slipping through our fingers, but we're ready to fly
The night'll be our cover and we'll huddle below
We got the music in our bodies and the radio

And when the morning arrives it'll all be gone
Disappearing in (to) the crack of dawn
We better make our move nowBefore the sun is awake
It's time to put up or shut up
And to pick up the pace

And I don't want to let another minute get by
Love is going to get us while the moon is in the sky
We may be running out of night, but never running out of steam
We're acting on a hunch and we'll be acting out a dream

There really isn't any time to lose
They're going to catch us if we wait until it gets too light
You're such a pretty boy
Let me show you what to do, and you'll do it
But you gotta move faster
Faster than the speed of night

Faster than the speed of night
Faster than the speed of night
It's all we ever wanted
And all we'll ever need
And it's slipping through our fingers
Faster than the speed of night

Faster than the speed of night
Faster than the speed of night
It's all we ever wanted
And all we'll ever need
And it's slipping through our fingers

Faster than the speed of night
Faster than the speed of night
Faster than the speed of night
Faster than the speed of night
]
Faster than the speed of night

Let me show you how to drive me crazy
Let me show you how to make me feel so good
Let me show you how to take me to the edge of the stars and back again
You've gotta show me how to drive you crazy
You've gotta show me all the things you want to happen to you
We've gotta tell each other everything we always wanted someone to do

I don't want to push you now and I don't want to rush
We're getting closer every second now, but close is not enough
The night'll be our cover and we'll huddle below
We got the music in our fingers and the radio

There really isn't any time to lose
We're going to lose it if we wait until it gets too light
You're such a pretty boy
Let me show you what to do and you'll do it
But you gotta move faster
Faster than the speed of night

Faster than the speed of night
Faster than the speed of night
It's all we ever wanted
And all we'll ever need
And it's slipping through our fingers
Faster than the speed of night

Faster than the speed of night
Faster than the speed of night
It's all we ever wanted
And all we'll ever need
And it's slipping through our fingers
Faster than the speed of night

Faster than the speed of night
Faster than the speed of night
Faster than the speed of night
Faster than the speed of night

9. HERE SHE COMES


She begins to steal the light

confusion throws another mystery.
It's out of focus with the eye

so now you wonder is this just a dream?
Here she comes
here she comes

she 's gonna cause a sensation now.
And just between you and me
I think she'll soon have you tempfation bound.

Suppose - who knows? She's not above suspicion.
Is she - maybe - on some kind of secret mission? -
Better listen.
Somewhere
somehow
there's still some pieces missing.
I sense
I feel
trust my intuition

don't rush into your decision !
Now here's a riddle in a rhyme.
If she's the same how come she's different now?

The same old eyes but not the shine.
You know you're certain but you're full of doubt.

Now here she comes
here she comes.
She's gonna have you at her beck and call.
So why refuse
yeah
why contend?
When all resistance is impossible!

Suppose - who knows? She's not above suspicion. . . .
Now here she comes
here she comes. . . .

Now here she comes
here she comes.
This lady's serious make no mistake.
Face to face and eye to eye -
she'll cast a spell that you may never breal
Oh
here she comes
here she comes.
Here she comes
here she comes.

10. IF YOU WERE A WOMAN


If you were a woman and I was a man

Would it be so hard to understand
That a heart's a heart and we do what we can

If you were a woman and I was a man - I was a man!

How's it feel to be a woman
how's it feel to be a man?
Are we really that different
tell me where we stand.
I look at you
you look away

Why do you say we're night and day?
I'd like to try another way
oh
baby
for iust one day.

If you were a woman and I was a man

Would it be so hard to undexstand
That a heart's a heart and we do what we can

If you were a woman and I was a man

If you were a woman and I was a man.


How's it feel to be a hunter
how's it feel to be the prey?
Is there really a reason for this game we play?
I look at you
you look away
iust one day.
Why do you say we're night and day?
I'd like to try another way
oh
darling
for just one day.

If you were a woman and I was a man
. . .

Hey
we're just two people trying to love

Oh
but how
how can we love
With this wall between us holding us back?

If you were a woman and I was a man
. . .
If you were a woman and I was a man.
If you were a woman and I was a man
. . .

11. TO LOVE SOMEBODY


There's a light
A certain kind of light
That never shone on me
I want my life to be lived with you
There's a way, everybody say
To do each and every little thing
But what good it bring, if I ain't got you
If I ain't got you

Chorus:
You don't know what it's like
Baby, you don't know what it's like

To love somebody, to love somebody
The way I love you

In my pain, I see your face again
It's burning in my mind
You ain't got to be so blind that I'm alive
I'm a woman, can't you see what I am
I live and breathe for you
But what good does it do, if I ain't got you
If I ain't got you

12. LIME LIGHT



I can see the glow of the distant sun
I can feel it inside, maybe this day could be the one
I can hear the roar of the distant crowd
They are waiting for me, calling my name, shouting out loud

Limelight, you were all I ever wanted since it all began
Limelight, shining on me, and telling the world who I am
Oh, limelight, don't let me slip right through your fingers, that's a long way to fall
After all the years of waiting, I’m going to show them all

I can see the world in a different light
Now it's easy to say where I went wrong, what I did right
Holding on isn't always easy, I am gonna change my mind

Limelight, you were all I ever wanted since it all began
Limelight, shining on me, telling the world who I am
Oh, limelight, don't let me slip right through you fingers, that's a long way to fall

Limelight, you were all I ever wanted since it all began
Limelight, shining on me, telling the world who I am
Yeah limelight, don't let me slip right through you fingers, that's a long way to fall
Maybe the road's not easy, I’m gonna show them all
