THE VERY BEST SONGS ARE YET TO BE? MEDLEY [10]







1. BARBARA STREISLAND; WOMAN IN LOVE


Life is a moment in space
When the dream is gone
It's a lonelier place
I kiss the morning good-bye
But down inside you know
We never know why

The road is narrow and long
When eyes meet eyes
And the feeling is strong
I turn away from the wall
I stumble and fall
But I give you it all

I am a woman in love
And I'd do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I defend
Over and over again
What do I do?

With you eternally mine
In love there is
No measure of time
They planned it all at the start
That you and I
Live in each others heart
We may be oceans away
You feel my love
I hear what you say
No truth is ever a lie
I stumble and fall
But I give you it all

I am a woman in love
And I'd do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I defend
Over and over again
What do I do?

I am a woman in love
And I'm talkin' to you
You know how you feel
What a woman can do
It's a right I defend
Over and over again

I am a woman in love
And I'd do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I defend
Over and over again
What do I do?

2. KENNY ROGERS: LADY

Lady, I'm your knight in shining armor and I love you
You have made me what I am and I am yours
My love, there's so many ways I want to say I love you
Let me hold you in my arms forever more

You have gone and made me such a fool
I'm so lost in your love
And oh, we belong together
Won't you believe in my song

Lady, for so many years I thought I'd never find you
You have come into my life and made me whole
Forever let me wake to see you each and every morning
Let me hear you whisper softly in my ear

In my eyes I see no one else but you
There's no other love like our love
And yes, oh yes, I'll always want you near me
I've waited for you for so long

Lady, your love's the only love I need
And beside me is where I want you to be
'Cause, my love, there's somethin' I want you to know
You're the love of my life, you're my lady

3. KIM CARNES : BETTE DAVIS' EYES


[Songwriters: De Shannon, Jackie; Weiss, Donna;]

Her hair is Harlow gold, her lips sweet surprise
Her hands are never cold, she's got Better Davis eyes
She'll turn the music on you, you won't have to think twice
She's pure as New York snow, she got Bette Davis eyes

And she'll tease you, she'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious, and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
She got Greta Garbo's standoff sighs, she's got Bette Davis eyes

She'll let you take her home, it works her appetite
She'll lay you on the throne, she got Bette Davis eyes
She'll take a tumble on you, roll you like you were dice
Until you come out blue, she's got Bette Davis eyes

She'll expose you, when she snows you
Hope you're pleased with the crumbs she throws you
She's ferocious and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy, she's got Bette Davis eyes

And she'll tease you, she'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious, and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush

4. FLEETWOOD MAC: DON'T STOP



.[ Songwriters: Mcvie, Christine;]

If you wake up and don't want to smile
If it takes just a little while
Open your eyes and look at the day
You'll see things in a different way

Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop, it'll soon be here
It'll be better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone

Why not think about times to come?
And not about the things that you've done
If your life was bad to you
Just think what tomorrow will do

Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop, it'll soon be here
It'll be better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone

All I want is to see you smile
If it takes just a little while
I know you don't believe that it's true
I never meant any harm to you

Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop, it'll soon be here
It'll be better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone

Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop, it'll soon be here
It'll be better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone

Don't you look back
Don't you look back
Don't you look back
Don't you look back

[Songwriters: Benson, Renaldo; Cleveland, Alfred; Gaye, Marvin;]

Mother, mother
There's too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother
There's far too many of you dying
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today, yeah

Simply because our hair is long
Oh, you know we've got to find a way
To bring some understanding here today

Picket lines and picket signs
Don't punish me with brutality
Come on talk to me

Right on, baby
Right on, baby

7. JOHN LENNON; IMAGINE


Imagine there's no heaven, it's easy if you try
No people below us, above it's only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries, it isn't hard to do
No need to kill or die for and no religions too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one


Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger a brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing for the world

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
Take my hand and join us
And the world will live, will live as one

8. ROLLING STONES: [I CAN'T GET NO] SATISFACTION

I can't get no satisfaction, I can't get no satisfaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no

When I'm drivin' in my car, and the man come on the radio
He's tellin' me more and more about some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination

I can't get no. Oh, no, no, no. Hey, hey, hey
That's what I say
I can't get no satisfaction, I can't get no satisfaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no

When I'm watchin' my TV and a man comes on and tell me
How white my shirts can be
But, he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke
The same cigarettes as me

I can't get no. Oh, no, no, no. Hey, hey, hey
That's what I say
I can't get no satisfaction, I can't get no satisfaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no

When I'm ridin' round the world, and I'm doin' this and I'm signin' that
And I'm tryin' to make some girl, who tells me
Baby, better come back maybe next week
'Cause you see I'm on a losing streak
I can't get no. Oh, no, no, no. Hey, hey, hey
That's what I say. I can't get no, I can't get no
I can't get no satisfaction, no satisfaction
No satisfaction, no satisfaction

.9. BOB DYLAN: LIKE A ROLLING STONE


Once upon a time you dressed so fine,
Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you ?
People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall,"
You thought they were all a’kiddin' you.
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hangin' out.
Now you don't talk so loud,
Now you don't seem so proud,
About having to be scrounging your next meal.

How does it feel ?
How does it feel ?
To be without a home ?
Like a complete unknown ?
Like a rolling stone ?

Aw, you've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely,
But you know you only used to get “juiced” in it.
Nobody’s ever taught you how to live out on the street,
And now you're gonna have to get used to it.
You say you never compromise
With a mystery tramp, but now you realize
He's not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And say, “Do you want to make a deal?

How does it feel ?
How does it feel ?
To be on your own ?
With no direction home ?
A complete unknown ?
Like a rolling stone ?

Aw, you never turned around to see the frowns
On the jugglers and the clowns
When they all did tricks for you.
You never understood that it ain't no good,
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you.
You used to ride on a chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat.
Ain't it hard when you discover that
He really wasn't where it's at
After he took from you everything he could steal ?

How does it feel ?
How does it feel ?
To have ya’ on your own ?
With no direction home ?
Like a complete unknown ?
Like a rolling stone ?

Aw, princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
They're all drinkin', thinkin' that they’ve got it made.
Exchanging all precious gifts,
But you'd better take your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe.
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used.
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse.
When you ain’t got nothing, you’ve got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you’ve got no secrets to conceal.

How does it feel ?
Aw, how does it feel ?
To be on your own ?
With no direction home ?
Like a complete unknown ?
Like a rolling stone ?

10. QUEEN: THE BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY

Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide,
No escape from reality
Open your eyes,
Look up to the skies and see,
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy,
Because I'm easy come, easy go,
Little high, little low,
Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to
me, to me

Mama,
I just killed a man,
Put a gun against his head, pulled my trigger
now he's dead
Mama... life had just begun,
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
Mamaaaaa oooh,
Didn't mean to make you cry,
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow,
Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters

Too late, my time has come,
Sends shivers down my spine, body's aching all
the time
Goodbye, ev'rybody, I've got to go,
Got to leave you all behind and face the truth
Mamaaaaa oooh,
I don't want to die,
I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all

(Guitar solo)

I see a little silhouetto of a man,
Scaramouche! Scaramouche! will you do the
Fandango?!

Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very frightening

me!
Galileo, Galileo
Galileo, Galileo
Galileo, Figaro - magnifico

I'm just a poor boy, nobody loves me
He's just a poor boy from a poor family,
Spare him his life from this monstrosity!
Easy come, easy go, will you let me go
Bismilah! No, we will not let you go
(Let him go!) Bismilah! We will not let you go
(Let him go!) Bismilah! We will not let you go
(Let me go) Will not let you go
(Let me go)(Never) Never let you go
(Let me go) Never let you go (Let me go) Ah
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia, let me go
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me,
for meeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

So you think you can stop me and spit in my
eye?!?!
So you think you can love me and leave me to
die?!?!
Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby,
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta
here!

(Guitar solo)

Nothing really matters, Anyone can see,
Nothing really matters,
Nothing really matters to me...

Any way the wind blows...

1. I'D LOVE YOU TO WANT ME




When I saw you standing there
I about fell off my chair
When you moved your mouth to speak
I felt the blood go to my feet

Now it took time for me to know
What you tried so not to show
Something in my soul just cried
I see the want in your blue eyes

Chorus :
Baby, I'd love you to want me
The way that I want you
The way that it should be
Baby, you'd love me to want you
The way that I want to
If you'd only let it be

You told yourself years ago
You'd never let your feelings show
The obligation that you made
For the title that they gave

Repeat chorus
Repeat verse 2
Repeat chorus

2. DON'T TELL ME GOOD NIGHT!



[written by Kent "Lobo" LaVoie]

Lying there beside me
With your head resting on my arm
Your body feels so warm
And your hair smells
Like a Sunday morning

I feel you moving closer
And I know what you're gonna say
But girl there's just no way
I'll ever like what you'll be saying

Don't tell me goodnight
It makes me feel so empty inside
And if only I could
I wouldn't sleep at all
Don't tell me goodnight
Just let me drift off slowly away
And dream of you

You reach out and you touch me
Just to let me know you're there
And I can feel your hair
And somehow I don't
Feel like sleeping

VIDEO



3. LOVE ME FOR WHAT I AM



Love Me For What I Am
I wore the clothes you like
You said they gave me that look
I even tried to like the food
I know you like to cook
I parted my hair on the left
I carried your arm on the right
I slept late in the morning
And stayed out late at night.

I can't give anymore of my soul away
And still look myself in the mirror everyday
I can't change anymore of what makes me be myself
And still have enough left not to be somebody else
I'm not demanding as a man
Just asking you love me for what I am.

I tried hard not to say the things you don't like to hear
And when to you it was apricot I nibbled on your ear
I open the door up for you, I keep my big mouth shut
But I've been moving down while you been going up.

VIDEO



4. STANDING AT THE END OF THE LINE

You've been around for a long, long time
I've seen you here before
You'll meet some guy who really turns you on
And sneak out of the side door.

You'll never look my way I know
I ain't much to look at
But one of these nights you're going
Home with me, I'm gonna see to that.

Well I'm just waiting out my time
Standing at the end of the line
I got a lot of loving I'm saving
inside for you
Yes I'm just waiting out my time
Standing at the end of the line
But you're gonna know that you've
been loved when I get through loving you.

You look right at me and smiled
One time just last week
And what one look from you did to me
It kept me in my seat

But you picked another guy to entertain
you that night
And I was left to entertain myself
so I got into a fight.

5. HOW CAN I TELL HER


She knows when I am lonesome
She cries when i am sad
She's up in the good times
She's down in the bad
Whenever I am discouraged
She knows what to do
But girl...
She doesn't know about you

She makes them all seem right
I can make up excuses
Not to hold her at night
We can talk about tomorrow
I'll her things i wanna do
But girl...
How can I tell her about you

How can I tell her about you
Girl, please tell me what to do
Every thing seems right whenever I'm with you
So girl, won't you tell, how to tell her about you

How can I tell her I don't miss her
Whenever I am away
How can I say it's you I think of
Every single night and day
But when is it easy
Telling someone the truth
Oh girl, help me tell her about you

How can I tell her about you
Girl, please tell me what to do
Everything seems right whenever I'm with

7. DON'T EXPECT ME TO BE YOUR FRIEND




I stopped sending flowers to your apartment
you said you weren't at home much anymore
I stopped dropping by without an appointment
'cause I'd hear laughter coming through your door

Sometimes late at night you'll still call me
just before you close your eyes to sleep
You make me vow to try and stop by sometime
baby that's a promise I can't keep

I love you too much to ever start liking you
so lets just let the story have an end

I love you too much to ever start liking you
so don't expect me to be your friend

I don't walk down through the village or other places
that we used to go to all the time

I'm trying to erase you from my memory
'cause thinking of you jumbles up my mind

I love you too much to ever start liking you
so lets just let the story have an end

I love you too much to ever start liking you
so don't expect me to be your friend

you always act so happy when I see you
you smile that way, you take my hand and then
introduce me to your latest lover
that's when I feel the walls start crashing in

I love you too much to ever start liking you
so lets just let the story have an end

I love you too much to ever start liking you
so don't expect me to be your friend

VIDEO



8. RING..


[Songwriters: Harvey, Alex; Reeves, Edward B;]

Ring, ring, telephone ring
Somebody said, ?Baby what you doin'?"
I've been wonderin' where you've been
Now and then I think about you and me

There's no use fightin' 'bout things we can't recall
It don't matter now at all, just come on home
Baby, we'll laugh and sing and we'll make love
And let the telephone ring

Ring, ring, doorbell ring, baby come on in
Got James Taylor on the stereo
I'm glad you came around, I've been feelin' down
Just talkin' to Tony and Mario

You know, they make good conversation
Still it ain't no consolation 'cause I got love

Baby I'll give you some and if somebody comes
We'll let the doorbell ring

Said, ring, ring, golden ring around the sun
Around your pretty finger
Ring, ring, voices ring with a happy tune
Anybody can be a singer

The sun come up across the city
I swear you never looked so dog gone pretty
Hand in hand we'll stand upon the sand
With the preacher man, let the weddin' bells ring

Hand in hand we'll stand upon the sand
With the preacher man, let the weddin' bells ring
Hand in hand we'll stand upon the sand
With the preacher man, let the weddin' bells ring

9. WHERE WERE YOU WHEN I WAS FALLING IN LOVE?

[Written by Sam Lorber / Jeff Silbar / Steve Jobe]

When your eyes met mine,
I knew that I had better play it cool --
I'm doing my best trying to resist
Cause I ain't no fool.

Where in the world did you come from baby?
You waited just a little too long
To look my way.
Now it's a little to late.

Where were you
When I was falling in love?
I was looking for you, baby.
Where were you
When I was falling in love?
Looking for you, baby.
If I'd ever looked in those eyes before,
We'd be together tonight I'm sure.
Where were you
When I was falling in love?
Where were you
Lost and looking for love?

If I'd have met you sooner,
I'd be talking to you and playing the game.
But the best thing for me to do
Is get up and leave without knowing your name.
It might have been something special, baby,
Something only people in love could understand --


VIDEO




10. NO SECRETS


I have no reason to check up on
Where you are all the time
We are so close it's almost like
You can read my mind

I have no secrets from you
And I know that you have no secrets from me
We have a love that is built on trust
That's what we have you and me, no secrets

I have never even once
Had to worry bout you
And that won't change as the years go
By that's something I just can't do
You know that I have no secrets from you
And I know that you have no secrets from me
We have a love that is built on trust
That's what we have you and me

I have no secrets from you
And I know that you have no secrets from me
We have a love that is built on trust
That's what we have you and me, that's what we have

No secrets
No secrets (We can't live)
No secrets
No secrets
No secrets
No secrets
No secrets
( FADE )


VIDEO






11. IT'S ALL IN THE GAME


Many a tear has to fall
But it's all in the game
All in the wonderful game
That we know as love

You have words with him
And your future's looking dim
But these things
Your hearts can rise above
Once in a while he won't call
But it's all in the game
Soon he'll be there at your side
With a sweet bouquet

And he'll kiss your lips
And caress your waiting fingertips
And your heart will fly away
(Soon he'll be there at your side)

With a sweet bouquet
And he'll kiss your lips
And caress your waiting fingertips
And your heart will fly away

12. A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A LOVE



Hey baby, you're a beautiful lady
But I guess that you know it
You sure turn my head around
And I'm sure that I show it

If you'll take the chance on romance
When this dance is over
Maybe we could slide away
To a quieter place
This could be a day in the life of a love
That could last forever
How could we ever know until we try
This could be a day in the life of a love
That could last forever
We'll surly make it last till morning light

What cha saw baby
Does it so to crazy
Well I just had to say it

When my heart speaks to me
I have to obey it

Why don't you say yes
And we'll make the best
Of the rest of the night

But then again
It might never end

VIDEO




13. ALL FOR THE LOVE OF A GIRL



Hey baby, you're a beautiful lady
But I guess that you know it
You sure turn my head around
And I'm sure that I show it

If you'll take the chance on romance
When this dance is over
Maybe we could slide away
To a quieter place
This could be a day in the life of a love
That could last forever
How could we ever know until we try
This could be a day in the life of a love
That could last forever
We'll surly make it last till morning light

What cha saw baby
Does it so to crazy
Well I just had to say it

When my heart speaks to me
I have to obey it

Why don't you say yes
And we'll make the best
Of the rest of the night

But then again
It might never end

14. LIVING MY LIFE WITHOUT YOU



I must admit I've followed every rainbow
I've lived so high I've missed the lows
All my life
I've used my charms
Other ladies have filled my arms
But you have stayed beside me
All my life
I was looking so hard
I couldn't see
The dearest one
Who'd been a part of me

I was living my life without you
Baby you always knew
You saw through my disguise
And open up my eyes
I was living my life without you

How many times have I held you

Like I did last night
And never even seen
The light of you
So I must admit
That you saw more in you and me
Than a fool like me could ever see
All my life

15. I'M IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE


I'm in the mood for love
Simply because you're near me
Funny, but when you're near me
I'm in the mood for love
Heaven is in your eyes
Bright as the stars we're under
Oh, is it any wonder?
I'm in the mood for love

Why stop to think of whether
This little dream might fade?
We've put our hearts together
Now we are one, I'm not afraid

If there's a cloud above
If it should rain, we'll let it
But, for tonight, forget it
I'm in the mood for love

16. SOME ONE TO LOVE


Well it's another one of those nights
The rain is falling down out side
You want to be with someone special
You want to get away and hide
You feel all depressed and lonely
Like that rain on the roof above
You think you're missing someone
You once knew
But what you're missing is
Someone to love

Someone to love someone to love
What you're missing is someone to love
Someone to love someone to love
What you're missing baby
Is someone to love

So you go out and you go cruising
And you meet some guy in a bar

And he takes you home and he loves you
But that don't take you very far
Cos when the thrill is gone
You get restless
So you take your things and go on home
But when you get there you feel all empty
Cause you know that you're still alone

Without someone to love someone to love
What you're missing is someone to love
Someone to love someone to love
What you're missing now
What you're missing baby
Is someone to love

Someone to love

Someone to love someone to love
What you need is someone to love
Someone to love someone to love
What you need baby what you need
What you need is someone to love

1. LOVE ME WITH A FEELING


Man:] "All right! She's gonna sing!"
[Rose:] "All right, we all turn to page 438.
Now, you know we all gonna sing along.
Oh, I do love a revue."

Ohhhhhh!
You know, women don't like this woman,
'cause I always speak my mind.
But the men ain't crazy about me,
'cause I love to take my time.

If you're gonna love this woman,
gotta love me with a thrill,
'cause, baby, if you don't,
I gotta find a man who will.

Love me with a feeling.
You got to love me with a feelin'.
You got to love me with a feelin',
or you don't love me at all.

You know, I'm the kind of woman,
I don't want no halfway stuff.
If you're gonna turn me loose, baby,
be sure I had enough.

You know, the cops once took me in,

but I did not need the bail.
I just shook it for the judge and he,
he put that cop in jail.

You got to love me with a feeling.
You got to love me with a feelin'.
You got to love me with a feelin',
or you don't love me at all.

"All right, Milledge, this one's for you."
There was one cat who could not make it,
and Milledge was his name.
The only cat I ever knew
who left before he came.

There he's a-standing,
drinkin' pop from a paper cup.
But when it's time for gettin' down,
Milledge can not get it up!

You gotta love me with a feelin'.
Yeah, love, love me with a feelin'.
You got to love me with a feelin',
or you can't love me at all.

2. A DREAM IS A WISH YOUR HEART MAKES

A dream is a wish your heart makes
when you're fast asleep.
In dreams you will lose your heartache,
whatever you wish for you keep.

Have faith in your dreams and someday, someday,

your rainbow will come smiling through.
No matter how your heart is grieving,
if you keep on believing
the dream that you wish will come true.

Oh, no matter how your heart is grieving,
if you keep on believing
the dream that you wish will come true.

3. LOVE SAYS IT'S WAITING

You were told to wait there for love.
Love says it's waiting for you.

And all I want to say
is I know it's never easy
getting all dressed up with no place to go.

Help, for, that's what we're here for.

All one together.
Is no one alone?

Come see your sister.
Call her your own.
Will no one hold you?
We'll hold you.

4. EVERY ROAD LEADS BACK TO YOU

Old friend, here we are,
after all the years and tears
and all that we've been through.
It feels so good to see you.
Lookin' back in time,
there've been other friends and other lovers,
but no other one like you.
All my life, no one ever has known me better.

I must have traveled down a thousand roads.
Been so many places, seen so many faces,
always on my way to somethin' new.
Ohhh, but it doesn't matter,
'cause no matter where I go,
every road leads back,
every road just seems to lead me back to you.

Old friend, there were times
I didn't want to see your face
or hear your name again.
Now those times are far behind me.
It's so good to see your smile.
I'd forgotten how nobody else
could make me smile the way you do.

All this time, you're the one I still want beside me.

I must have traveled down a thousand roads.
Been so many places, seen so many faces,
always on my way to somethin' new.
Ohh, but it doesn't matter,
'cause no matter where I go,
every road leads back,
every road just seems to lead me back to you.

I must have traveled down a thousand roads.
Been so many places, seen so many faces,
always on my way to somethin' new.
Ohh, but it doesn't matter,
'cause no matter where I go,
every road leads back,
every road just seems to lead me back,
every road leads back,
every road just seems to lead me back to you.
Every road just seems to lead me back to you.

5 . THE ROSE

Some say love, it is a river that drowns the tender reed
Some say love, it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed
Some say love, it is a hunger an endless aching need
I say love, it is a flower and you, it's only seed

It's the heart, afraid of breaking that never learns to dance
It's the dream, afraid of waking that never takes the chance

It's the one who won't be taken who cannot seem to give
And the soul, afraid of dying that never learns to live

When the night has been too lonely and the road has been too long
And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snow
Lies the seed that with the sun's love, in the spring becomes the rose

VIDEO


6. THE PERFECT KISS


Across the bridge of mercy bound,
rooms so full of Say You Will
and trains that rock like cradles in the air.
I'll stay here and hold your hand.
Love likes fools you understand.
It's part of what this life has brought;
sirens and forget-me-nots.

Either way it's no use now.
He's up there and I'm down here.
I will try to make the best of this.
Someday angels will dream the perfect kiss.

All the signs that pointed home
turned their backs the more I roamed
and walked where love would never call my name.

So let me take you to the train
and hold you softer than the rain.
We're all alone, two alley cats
curled up like a scarf and hat.

Who knows how it came to this.
I don't know you and you don't know me.
But sometimes strangers cross that great abyss.
That's when angels will dream the perfect kiss.

Either way it's no use now.
He's up there and I'm down here.
But I must try to make the best of this.
Someday angels will dream the perfect kiss.
Someday angels will dream the perfect kiss.

7. LET ME CALL YOU SWEETHEART

that you love me too.

Keep the love-light glowin'
in your eyes so true.

8. IS IT LOVE

Don't ask me why
you feel the need to cry.
Stop. We don't need your sad, sad eyes.

I've been up, I've been down,
I've been wandering all around.
But it's all right.
I found out the hard way.

Is it love that makes
your world go 'round and 'round?
Is it love that brings
you to my lost and found?
Around, around, around,
around, around, around,
around, around.

Is it you? Is it me?
I'm my own worst enemy.
Got a start on the road
to self-destruction. Oooh, Whoa.

Don't stop, but don't go,
'cause I really need to know
what it takes just to make
th, this world go. Ooooooh.

Is it love that makes
the world go 'round and 'round?

you to my lost and found?
Around, around, around,

9. THIS OLE HOUSE

This ole house once knew my children.
This ole house once knew my life.
This ole house was home and comfort
as we lived through storm and strife.
This ole house once rang with laughter.
This ole house heard many shouts.
Now she trembles in the darkness
when the lightning walks about.

Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer.
Ain't a-gonna need this house no more.
Ain't got time to fix the shingles.
Ain't got time to fix the floor.
Ain't got time to oil the hinges,
nor to mend the window panes.
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer.
I'm a-gettin' ready to meet the saints.

This ole house is gettin' shaky.
This ole house is gettin' old.
This ole house lets in the rain.
This ole house lets in the cold.
On my knees I'm gettin' shaky,
but I feel no fear or pain,
'cause I see an angel peekin'
through a broken window pane.

I ain't a-gonna need this house no longer.
Ain't a-gonna need this house no more.

Ain't got time to fix the shingles.
Ain't got time to fix the floor.
I ain't got time to oil the hinges,
nor to mend the window panes.
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer.
I'm a-gettin' ready to meet the saints.

This ole house is afraid of thunder.
This ole house is afraid of storms.
This ole house just groans and trembles
when the night wind flings its arms.
This ole house is gettin' feeble.
This old house is needin' paint.
Just like me it's tuckered out,
but I'm a-gettin' ready to meet the saints.

Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer.
Ain't a-gonna need this house no more.
Ain't got time to fix the shingles.
Ain't got time to fix the floor.
I ain't got time to oil the hinges,
nor to mend the window panes.
Ain't gonna need this house no longer.
I'm a-gettin' ready to meet the saints.
I'm gettin' ready to meet the saints.

10. TENDERLY


The evening breeze caressed the trees tenderly.
The trembling trees embraced the breeze tenderly.
Then you and I came wandering by,
and lost in a sigh were we.
The shore was kissed by sea and mist tenderly.

I can't forget how two hearts met breathlessly.

Your arms opened wide and closed me inside.
You took my lips, you took my love so tenderly.

Your arms opened wide and closed me inside.
You took my lips, you took my love so tenderly.


VIDEO




11. I 'M A WOMAN


Songwriters: Leiber, Jerry; Stoller, Mike;

I can wash forty four pairs of socks
And have 'em hanging out on the line
I can starch and iron two dozen shirts
'Fore you can count from one to nine

I can slip up a great big dip up of lard
From a drippings can
Throw it in the skillet, do my shopping
Be back before it melts in the pan

'Cause I'm a woman
W O M A N

I can rub and scrub
'Til this house is shines just like a dime
Feed the baby, grease the car
And powder my nose at the same time

Get all dressed up
Go out swing till 4 A.M and then
Lay down at five, jump 'til 6
And start all over again


'Cause I'm a woman
W O M A N

If you come to me sick leave
You know I'm gonna make you well
If you come to me, hexed up
You know I'm gonna break the spell

And if you come to me hungry
I'll feed ya full of my grits
If it's loving you want
I can kiss you and give you the shivering fits

'Cause I'm a woman
W O M A N
Say it again

I got a twenty dollar gold piece
Says there's nothing that I can't do
I can make a dress out of feeding sacks
I can make a man out of you

'Cause I'm a woman
W O M A N
I'll say it again

'Cause I'm a woman
W O M A N
That's all

1. BABY I MISS YOU

I can't stay at home.

Who can stop me falling.

When the mem'ries creep into my mind.
Baby I miss you.
Tears of desperation make me blind.
Baby I miss you.
'Cos left the good times way behind.
Baby I miss you.
Wanna be with you.

Won't miss a chance.
Looking for a new love .
Searching for the girls.
When the day is done.
But I feel my heart's
Looking for a true love.
And I know.
You're the only one.

CHORUS: Oh baby I miss you.
When the mem'ries creep into my mind.

You got me on a string I 'd give you anything.

And as for heartaches and as for mistakes.
I´re had my share but baby I don't care.

4. SOME HEARTS ARE DIAMONDS


Open your heart to all of those years

Baby
you look through a rainbow of tears.
You watched your dreams all fadin' away

This time you're right
oh

Years may come
years may go
But I still love you and I want you to know:

Some hearts are diamonds
some hearts are stone

Some days you're tired of being alone.
Some hearts are diamonds
some hearts are stone

It takes two lovers to be as one.

Illusions of love
they'll come and they'll go

Trust in your heart
maybe your love will grow.
Your silent tears they're so full of pride

Baby
I know that you can't run and hide.
You need love like I do

I hope you want me like I know I want you.

Some hearts are diamonds
some hearts are stone
. . .
Some hearts are diamonds

Some hearts arr diamonds
some hearts are stone

Some days you're tired of being alone

Some hearts are diamonds.

My heart aches deep inside
In the name of love

And how much time and loneliness
I traded for a kiss

It's raining in my heart

You can find your way back home on the wings of love.

From secrets in your mind to a place that we can find

Come back to this heart of mine on the wings of love.

To the place where love was born.
And the wings of love
they can carry us on
To a time when pain is gone.

Wait for me

through the wings of love you will see
That I need your warmth tonight to feel you by my side

Together we can hide in the wings of love.

On the wings of love
We can turn back again...
Fly to me
Fly to me on the wings of love

I gotta have your love

one last kiss...

oh with a girl like you I don't know who to be
sometimes you play me best out of there

and when the feelin's gone and you still lead me on
I've got to have your love

one last kiss...

11. AMAZING



Oooh, Guess I took your love for granted
Even though you cared for me
Losing you has left me stranded, like a single fallen leaf
I was foolish and demanding and just too blind to see
You'll always be a part of me baby
How can I survive?
I realise as a consequence
I know that your heart still has a home for me

CHORUS:


Baby, I'm amazed with the thought of you
You're so amazing
Lost in all the thoughts I have of you
Come back here, baby
Every night I whisper to the stars, don't wanna sleep without you
I don't wanna live without your love, it's so amazing


I sacrifised what I should cherish
All you asked was love from me
Now I understand your feelings
You're the air I need to breathe
Never meant to cause you any sadness
And you can blame it all on me
The heart of me will always be,baby sinner of my life

Imagining you loving someone else
I don't wanna be reality, nooo

CHORUS:

Baby, I'm amazed with the thought of you
You're so amazing
Lost in all the thoughts I have of you
Come back here, baby
Every night I whisper to the stars, don't wanna sleep without you
I don't wanna live without your love, it's so amazing

Insecure when I let you go
There was so many things that I didn't know
I can't forget that very night
You turned around and walked away from me, girl

CHORUS:

Baby, I'm amazed with the thought of you
You're so amazing
Lost in all the thoughts I have of you
Come back here, baby
Every night I whisper to the stars, don't wanna sleep without you
I don't wanna live without your love, it's so amazing


Baby, I'm amazed
Every night, every night
So amazing, baby
So amazing

12. BREAK THE ICE



There's so much I could say to you
If I could find the words to use
holding back the fears for oh so many years
images of broken dreams
that float away in endless streams
thoughts I had of you when nothin' else would do

people say love is round the corner
I've had my share of that
every day feel a little stronger
now I know our love was made to last

if I could break the ice
you and me we've paid the price, over and over
break the ice there's nothin' left to sacrifice
hearts growin' colder now
so we will break the ice

the burnin' that I feel in me
lies open now for all to see
I'm drownin' in my tears, cried for many years
an empty heart an empty room
a dream that ended all to soon
promises you write, seem helpless in the night

you may say love will last for ever
I have my doubts of that
every day, oh I can still remember
that I know our love was made to last

if I could break the ice...

13. FOR YOU


well the first time I saw you
on that cold winter's day
I was trapped between heaven and hell
and I really tried hard
to escape from your eyes
but my heart was too weak and I fell
for you

I knew nothing about you
but I just didn't care
in desire for you I was caught
and I promised myself
I will never give up
I had no chance at all but I fought
for you

[instrumental]

and we shared a few light years
in a land we called love
and your kiss was a dangerous gift
but my soul was addicted
to all that you gave
and I prayed und I cursed but I lived
for you

[instrumental]

well the last time I saw you
on that cold winter's day
oh I felt such a deep pain inside
and I wanted to hide it
away from your eyes
but my heart was too weak and I cried
for you

ooh you know I can't hide it
I see it in your eyes
baby oh for you

14. DON'T YOU CRY


DON'T YOU CRY

Every day I think of you.
And come what may, you're on my mind.
Time goes by oh we can't stop it.
Don't be sad we had our time.
And thought we tried it's not to be.
So baby smile when you think of me.

Chorus: Don't you cry, baby it's not so bad.
Don't ask why baby don't look so sad.
'Cos you'll look back one day and think of what
we had.
So don't you Cry.

Life is just a stupid game.
So put your trust in what you see.
I wish you well in all you do .
And you'll be fine eventually.

Lift up your heart and fly away.
There'll always be a better day.

Chorus: Don't'you cry, baby it's not bad.
Don't ask why, baby don't look so sad.
'Cos you'll look back one day and think of what we had.
So don't you cry.

Any time you need me know where I am.
All you have to do is call.
If ever you're in trouble I'll be there for you.
Baby any time at all .

And if one day we meed again.
And if I try a new romance.
Turn around don't hesitate.
'Cos we won't get a second chance.
I know we tried to get along.
No turning back no right or wrong.

Chorus: Don't your cry, baby it's not so bad.
Don't ask why, baby don't look so sad.
'Cos you'll look back one day and think of what
we had. So don't you cry.

15. STAY ONE MORE NIGHT



All the words of love and passion.
Never really mean the thing.
When freedom is callin'.
'Cos the times are changing.
Sometimes all the good goes wrong.
And tears fallin'.
I won't ever tell your lies.
You will find' the truth behind my eyes.

CHORUS: Stay one more night.
Let me hold you so tight.
Baby stay another night with me.
And put your arms around me tenderly.

Don't wanna hurt you baby.
Don't know what tomorrow brings.
Nothing forever.
Don't you trust a broken feeling.
Lay your body next to mine.

Oh baby I miss you.
I won't ever tell you lies.
You will find' the truth behind my eyes.

CHORUS: Stay one more night.
Let me hold you so tight.
Baby stay another night with me.
And put your arms around me tenderly

Pleas put your arms around me tenderly

CHORUS: Stay one more night.
Let me hold you so tight.
Baby stay another night with me.
And put your arms around me tenderly

Wanna stay with you baby.
I'll hold you forever and ever.

MAROON 5: HANDS ALL OVER [14]



Maroon 5 is an American pop rock[ band from Los Angeles, California. While they were in high school, lead vocalist and guitarist Adam Levine, keyboardist Jesse Carmichael, bass guitarist Mickey Madden, and drummer Ryan Dusick formed a garage band called Kara's Flowers and released one album in 1997. After a brief period they re-formed with guitarist James Valentine, and pursued a new direction as Maroon 5. The following year they released their debut album Songs About Jane, which contained four hit singles: "Harder to Breathe", "This Love", "She Will Be Loved" and "Sunday Morning"; it also enjoyed major chart success, going gold, platinum, and triple platinum in many countries around the world.

     1.      IF I NEVER SEE YOUR FACE AGAIN

[Songwriters: Levine, Adam; Valentine, James;]



Now as the summer fades, I let you slip away
You say I'm not your type but I can make you sway
It makes you burn to learn you're not the only one
I'd let you be if you put down your blazing gun

Now you've gone somewhere else faraway
I don't know if I will find you
But you feel my breath on your neck
Can't believe I'm right behind you

'Cause you keep me coming back for more
And I feel a little better than I did before
If I never see your face again, I don't mind
'Cause we've gone much further
Than I thought we'd get tonight

Sometimes you move so well, it's hard not to give in
I'm lost, I can't tell where you end and I begin
It makes me burn to learn you're with another man
I wonder if he's half the lover that I am

Now you've gone somewhere else far away
I don't know if I will find you
But you feel my breath on your neck
Can't believe I'm right behind you

'Cause you keep me coming back for more
And I feel a little better than I did before
If I never see your face again, I don't mind
'Cause we've gone much further
Than I thought we'd get tonight

Baby, baby, please believe me
Find it in your heart to reach me
Promise not to leave me behind

Take me down, but take it easy
Make me think but don't deceive me
Talk to me 'bout taking your time

'Cause you keep me coming back for more
And I feel a little better than I did before
If I never see your face again, I don't mind
'Cause we've gone much further
Than I thought we'd get tonight

You keep me coming back for more
And I feel a little better than I did before
If I never see your face again, I don't mind
'Cause we've gone much further
Than I thought we'd get tonight

      2.      SWEETEST GOODBYES

Where you are seems to be
As far as an eternity
Outstretched arms open hearts
And if it never ends then when do we start?
I'll never leave you behind
Or treat you unkind
I know you understand
And with a tear in my eye
Give me the sweetest goodbye
That I ever did receive

Pushing forward and arching back
Bring me closer to heart attack
Say goodbye and just fly away
When you comeback
I have some things to say

How does it feel to know you never have to be alone
When you get home?
There must be someplace here that only you and I could go
So I can show you how I
Dream away everyday
Try so hard to disregard
The rhythm of the rain that drops
And coincides with the beating of my heart

I'll never leave you behind
Or treat you unkind
I know you understand
And with a tear in my eye
Give me the sweetest goodbye
That I ever, ever, ever did receive

Pushing forward and arching back
Bring me closer to heart attack
Say goodbye and just fly away
When you comeback
I have some things to say

[x2]
How does it feel to know you never have to be alone
When you get home?
There must be someplace here that only you and I could go
So I can show you how I feel

       3.       INFATUATIONS

[Songwriters: Adam Noah Levine]



Baby, I don't wanna spend my life on trial
For something that I did not do
And maybe if you stopped and looked around sometime
I wouldn't pass right by you

Maybe it's because you are so insecure
And maybe your pain don't care
Maybe it's the chase that really gets me off
It falls away and it's just not there

You burn another bridge
Break another heart
You try again, it will only fall apart

Infatuation, not seeing the rest of you
Is getting the best of me
It's such a shame that you shot me down
Would have been nice to be around

I'm touching your skin
If it's only a fantasy then why is it killing me?
And I guess this must be infatuation

I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it
I want it, I want it, I want it

I try to put my finger on what burns me up
It always seems to escape me
And when you have decided that you've had enough
Just tell me where I need to be

And now her face is something that I never had
To ever deal with before
She left me with the feeling that she'd had enough
And I'm the one wanting more

Burn another bridge
Break another heart
You try again, it will only fall apart

Infatuation, not seeing the rest of you
Is getting the best of me
It's such a shame that you shot me down
Would have been nice to be around

I'm touching your skin
If it's only a fantasy then why is it killing me?
And I guess this must be infatuation

I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it
I want it, I want it, I want it

I'm so attracted to you
The feeling's mutual too
And I get scared the moment you leave
Get so hot, I forget to breathe, yeah

Infatuation, not seeing the rest of you
Is getting the best of me
It's such a shame that you shot me down
Would have been nice to be around

I'm touching your skin
If it's only a fantasy then why is it killing me?
And I guess this must be infatuation

I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it
I want it, I want it, I want it
I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it
I want it, I want it, I want it

            4.      THIS LOVE

[Songwriters: Adam Noah Levine;James Valentine;Michael Allen Madden;Jesse Royal Carmichael;Ryan Michael Dusick]



I was so high I did not recognize
The fire burning in her eyes
The chaos that controlled my mind
Whispered goodbye as she got on a plane
Never to return again
But always in my heart, oh!

This love has taken its toll on me
She said goodbye too many times before
And her heart is breaking in front of me
And I have no choice
?Cause I won't say goodbye anymore

I tried my best to feed her appetite
Keep her coming every night
So hard to keep her satisfied, oh!
Kept playing love like it was just a game
Pretending to feel the same
Then turn around and leave again

This love has taken its toll on me
She said goodbye too many times before
And her heart is breaking in front of me
And I have no choice
?Cause I won't say goodbye anymore

I'll fix these broken things
Repair your broken wings
And make sure everything's alright
(It's alright, it's alright)
My pressure on your hips
Sinking my fingertips
Into every inch of you
Because I know that's what you want me to do

This love has taken its toll on me
She said goodbye too many times before
Her heart is breaking in front of me
And I have no choice
?Cause I won't say goodbye anymore

This love has taken its toll on me
She said goodbye too many times before
And my heart is breaking in front of me
And she said goodbye too many times before

This love has taken its toll on me
She said goodbye too many times before
Her heart is breaking in front of me
And I have no choice
'Cause I won't say goodbye anymore

         5.       MY HEART'S  A STEREO


My Heart's a stereo
It beats for you so listen close
Hear my thoughts in every note
Oh, Oh
Make me your radio
And turn me up when you feel low
This melody was meant for you
Just sing along to my stereo

-Gym Class Heroes Baby-
If i was just another dusty record on the shelf
Would you blow me off and play me like everybody else
If i asked you to scratch my back, could you manage that
Like if read well, check it Travie, i can handle that
Further-more i apologize for any skipping tracks
Just the last girl that played me left a couple cracks
I used to, used to, used to now im over that
Cause holding grudges over love is ancient artifacts
If i could only find a note to make you understand
I sing a song for me and you would grab me by the hands
Keep myself inside your head like your favorite tune
And know my hearts a stereo that only plays for you

Chorus:
My hearts a stereo
It beats for you so listen close
Hear my thoughts in every note
Oh, Oh
Make me your radio
And turn me up when you feel low
This melody was meant for you
Just sing along to my stereo
Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh
To my stereo
Oh, Oh, Oh
So sing along to my stereo

Lets go
If i was an old school fifty pound boom box
Would you hold me on your shoulder wherever you walk
Would you turn my volume up before of the cops
And crank it higher every time they told you to stop
And all i ask is that you don't get mad at me
When you have to purchase mad D batteries
Appreciate every mix tape your friends make
You never know, we come and go like were on the interstate
I think i finally found a note to make you understand
If you could hear it sing along and take me by the hands
Keep myself inside your head like your favorite tune
And know my heart is a stereo that only plays for you

My hearts a stereo
It beats for you so listen close
Hear my thoughts in every note
Oh, Oh
Make me your radio
And turn me up when you feel low
This melody was meant for you
Just sing along to my stereo
Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh
To my stereo
Oh, Oh, Oh
So sing along to my stereo

I only pray you never leave me behind
Because good music can be so hard to find
I take your hand and pull it closer to mine
Thought love was dead, but now your changing my mind

My hearts a stereo
It beats for you so listen close
Hear my thoughts in every note
Oh, Oh
Make me your radio
And turn me up when you feel low
This melody was meant for you
Just sing along to my stereo
Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh
To my stereo
Oh, Oh, Oh
So sing along to my stereo

7.           MISERY

[Songwriters: Carmichael, Jesse Royal; Farrar, Sam John; Levine, Adam; Madden, Mickey; Valentine, James;]



Oh yeah
Oh yeah

So scared of breaking it that you won't let it bend
And I wrote two hundred letters I will never send
Sometimes these cuts are so much deeper then they seem
You'd rather cover up, I'd rather let them be

So let me be, and I'll set you free

I am in misery
There ain't nobody who can comfort me, oh yeah
Why won't you answer me?
The silence is slowly killing me, oh yeah

Girl you really got me bad
You really got me bad
Now I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna get you back

Your salty skin and how it mixes in with mine
The way it feels to be completely intertwined
Not that I didn't care, it's that I didn't know
It's not what I didn't feel, it's what I didn't show

So let me be, and I'll set you free

I am in misery
And there ain't nobody who can comfort me, oh yeah
Why won't you answer me?
The silence is slowly killing me, oh yeah

Girl you really got me bad
You really got me bad
And now I'm gonna get you back
Now I'm gonna get you back

You say your faith is shaken, and you may be mistaken
You keep me wide awake and waiting for the sun
I'm desperate and confused, so far away from you
I'm getting there, I don't care where I have to roam

Why do you do what you do to me, yeah?
Why won't you answer me, answer me yeah?
Why do you do what you do to me yeah?
Why won't you answer me, answer me yeah?

I am in misery
And there ain't nobody who can comfort me, oh yeah
Why won't you answer me?
The silence is slowly killing me, oh yeah

Girl you really got me bad
You really got me bad
And now I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna get you back

Girl you really got me bad
You really got me bad
And now I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna get you back

Girl you really got me bad
You really got me bad
And now I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna get you back

Girl you really got me bad
You really got me bad
Now I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna get you back

           8.        MISS YOU,   LOVE YOU

[Songwriters: Carmichael, Jesse; Levine, Adam;]

This is not been easy, this has been hard
I am scarred and I do not know what to do with you
Go inside, kiss your mouth, lick my lips, strap your hips
Can't remember why I fell in love with this

I miss you, I love you
It's a shame you can't stay away from me this time, oh no
You beg me, you ask me to kiss you and hug you
You won't be getting my affection again, oh no
I don't need you

Who do you think you are? No one cares about a name without a face
So don't go shooting up the place
Make no mistake, your love's not real 'cause the love I've got is deeper
So much deeper than you can ever feel

And I miss you, I love you
It's a shame you can't stay away from me this time, oh no
You beg me, you ask me to kiss you and hug you
You won't be getting my affection again, oh no
'Cause I don't need you tonight

It was really nice to know you and nothing left to show you
I got bills to pay, get out of the way, it's time to move on
And dinner with your boyfriend will never be the same again
Discuss me over cigarettes and say to him

I miss you, I love you
It's a shame, you can't stay away from me this time, oh no
You beg me, you ask me to kiss you and hug you
You won't be getting my affection again, oh no
'Cause I don't need you

I miss you, I love you
It's a shame, you can't stay away from me this time, oh no
You beg me, you ask me to kiss you, hug you
You won't be getting my affection again, no, no
'Cause I won't need you

         9.          NOTHING LASTS FOR EVER

[Songwriters: Levine, Adam;]

It is so easy to see
Dysfunction between you and me
We must free up these tired souls
Before the sadness gets us both

I tried and tried to let you know
I love you but I'm letting go
It may not last but I don't know
Just don't know

If you don't know then you can't care
And I show up but you're not there
But I'm waiting and you want to
Still afraid that I will desert you

Everyday with every word whispered
We get more far away
The distance between us makes it so hard to stay
But nothing last forever but be honest, babe
It hurts but it may be the only way

A web that's warm with memories
Can heal us temporarily
The misbehaving all it makes
The ditch between us so damn deep

Built a wall around my heart
Never let it fall apart
Strangely I wish secretly
It won't fall down while I'm asleep

If you don't know then you can't care
And I show up but you're not thereBut I'm waiting and you want to
Still afraid that I will desert you, babe

Everyday with every word whispered
We get more far away
The distance between us makes it so hard to stay
But nothing last forever but be honest, babe
It hurts but it may be the only way

But we have not hit the ground
Doesn't mean we're not still falling
I want so bad to pick you up
But you're still too reluctant to accept my help

What a shame
I hope you find somewhere
To place the blame
But until then the fact remains

Everyday with every word whispered
We get more far away
The distance between us makes it so hard to stay
Nothing last forever, but be honest, babe
It hurts but it may be the only way

Everyday with every word whispered
We get more far away
The distance between us makes it so hard to stay
But nothing last forever, but be honest, babe
It hurts but it may be the only way

            10.        UNTIL YOU ARE OVER ME


[Verse 1]
This relationship is over,
though my stomach still hurts.
And now I'm gonna live alone,
Why is the pain much worse?
You're so much better without makeup,
Why would you hide your face?
Don't want to spend the night and wake up,
Realize I've made a big mistake.

[Chorus]
I can not refuse your eyes,
Please don't look at me tonight.
My heart beats fast I know you're there,
And I pretend like I dont care.
It hurts so bad to know the truth,
But I am still in love with you.

[Verse 2]
I never meant to keep you waiting,
and now your food is getting cold,
I keep denying I'm in love with you,
My routine is getting old.
And now you stand in front of the table,
And say you never look back.
Your super stupid when you're angry,
You only wake up sad.

[Chorus]
I can not refuse your eyes,
Please don't look at me tonight.
My heart beats fast I know you're there,
And I pretend like I don't care.
It hurts so bad to know the truth,
But I am still in love with you.
It hurts too much to know the truth,
But I am still in love with you.

No more kisses on your lips, tender touch or...
I'd rather die on my two feet than live down on my knees.
And you're the girl to get me over what we start to be
And I just cant get over you, and until you're over me.

[Chorus]
I can not refuse your eyes,
Please don't look at me tonight.
My heart beats fast I know you're there,
And I pretend like I don't care.

I can not refuse your eyes,
Please don't look at me tonight.
My heart beats fast I know you're there,
And I pretend like I don't care.

It hurts too much to know the truth,
But I am still in love with you.
It hurts too much to know the truth,
But I am still in love with you.

Beauty queen of only eighteen
She had some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her
She always belonged to someone else

I drove for miles and miles
And wound up at your door
I've had you so many times
But somehow I want more

I don't mind spending every day
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile

And she will be loved
And she will be loved

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I know I tend to get so insecure
It doesn't matter anymore

It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's compromise that moves us along, yeah
My heart is full and my door's always open
You come anytime you want

I don't mind spending every day
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile

Ask her if she wants to stay awhile

And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved

I know where you hide alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls, yeah

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful

I don't mind spending every day
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile

And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
(Please don't try so hard to say goodbye)
And she will be loved

Please don't try so hard to say goodbye
Please don't try so hard to say goodbye
(I don't mind spending every day)
(Out on your corner in the pouring rain)
Please don't try so hard to say goodbye

        12.         MAKES ME WONDER

[Songwriters: Carmichael, Jesse; Madden, Mickey; Levine, Adam;]

Wake up with blood-shot eyes
Struggled to memorize
Way it felt to hearing lies
People that made you cry

Feel so good to be bad
Not worth the aftermath
After that, after that
Try to get you back

I still don't have the reason
And you don't have the time
And it really makes me wonder
If I ever gave a thought about you

Give me something to believe in
'Cause I don't believe in you anymore, anymore
I wonder if it even makes a difference to try
Yeah, so this is goodbye

Can?t stop my spinning head
Decisions that made my bed
Now I must lay in it
Deal with things I've left unsaid

Want to dive into you
Forget what you're going through
Get behind, make your move
Forget about the truth

I still don't have a reason
And you don't have the time
And it really makes me wonder
If I ever gave a thought about you

Give me something to believe in
'Cause I don't believe in you anymore, anymore
I wonder if it even makes a difference
Even makes a difference to try, yeah

And you told me how you're feelin'
But I don't believe it's true anymore, anymore
I wonder if it even makes a difference to cry
So this is goodbye

I've been here before, one day, a week
And it won't hurt anymore
You caught me in a lie, I have no alibi
The words you said don't have a meaning 'cause

I still don't have a reason and you don't have the time
And it really makes me wonder
If I ever gave a thought about you and I
So this is goodbye

Give me something to believe in
'Cause I don't believe in you anymore, anymore
I wonder if it even makes a difference
Even makes a difference to try, yeah

And you told me how you're feelin'
But I don't believe it's true anymore, anymore
I wonder if it even makes a difference to cry
So this is goodbye

So this is goodbye
Yeah, so this is goodbye
Yeah, so this is goodbye

[Songwriters: Levine, Adam;]

I asked her to stay but she wouldn't listen
And she left before I had the chance to say
The words that would mend the things that were broken
But now it's far too late she's gone away

Every night you cry yourself to sleep
Thinking why does this happen to me?
Why does every moment have to be so hard?
Hard to believe it

It's not over tonight
Just give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won't go home without you

The taste of her breath, I'll never get over
And the noises that she made kept me awake
The weight of the things that remain unspoken
Built up so much, it crushed us every day

Every night you cry yourself to sleep
Thinking, why does this happen to me?
Why does every moment have to be so hard?
Hard to believe it
It's not over tonight
Just give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won't go home without you

It's not over tonight
Just give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won't go home without you

Of all the things I've felt I've never really showed
Perhaps the worst is that I ever let you go
I should not ever let you go

It's not over tonight
Just give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won't go home without you

It's not over tonight
Just give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won't go home without you

And I won't go home without you
And I won't go home without you
And I won't go home without you

               14.          WAKE UP CALL

[Songwriters: James Valentine;Adam Noah Levine]



I didn't hear what you were saying
I live on raw emotion, baby
I answer questions, never maybe
And I'm not kind if you betray me
So who the hell are you to say 'we'?
I never would've made it, baby
If you needed love, well, then ask for love
Could've given love, now I'm taking love
And it's not my fault 'cause you both deserve
What's coming now, so don't say a word
Wake up call, caught you in the morning
With another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore?
Don't you care about me?
I don't think so!
Six foot tall, came without a warning
So I had to shoot him dead
He won't come around here anymore
Come around here, I don't think so!
I would've bled to make you happy
You didn't need to treat me that way
And now you've beat me at my own gameAnd now
I found you sleeping soundly
And your love is screaming loudly
I hear a sound and hit the ground
If you needed love, well, then ask for love
Could've given love, now I'm taking love
And it's not my fault 'cause you both deserve
What's coming now, so don't say a word
Wake up call, caught you in the morning
With another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore?
Don't you care about me?
I don't think so!
Six foot tall, came without a warning
So I had to shoot him dead
He won't come around here anymore
Come around here, I don't feel so bad
I don't feel so bad, I don't feel so bad
I'm so sorry, darlingDid I do the wrong thing?
Oh, what was I thinking?Is his heart still beating?
Wake up call, caught you in the morning
With another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore?
Don't you care about me? I don't think so!
Six foot tall, came without a warning
So I had to shoot him dead
He won't come around here anymore
Come around here, I don't feel so bad
Wake up call, caught you in the morning
With another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore?
Care about me? I don't think so!
Six foot tall, came without a warning
So I had to shoot him dead
He won't come around here anymore
No, he won't come around here,
I don't feel so bad
Wake up call, caught you in the morning
With another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore?
Don't you care about me? I don't feel so bad
Wake up call, caught you in the morning
With another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore?

The new introduction of blog formats in "BLOGGER" is posing difficulty in posting a blog. This morning I tried to publish a post and was frantically trying to make it as earlier blogs. But the result was so disappointing, that i feel I won't be able to post any blogs in future with the new kind of format as shown there. Previous Dashboard was quite substantial and capable of posting a an article even by the novices and even after an experience of more than 4 years in blogging in "BLOGGER" i find it so difficult to understand the theme oand methods to publish a post without errors. the new one is nt capable of separating the paragraphs. Till the editing stage it was looking somewhat perfect but at the publishing level it is all errors in formats.
