MADONNA: : FORBIDDEN LOVE [14]




Madonna (born Madonna Louise Ciccone (/tʃɪˈkoʊneɪ/ chi-KOH-nay); August 16, 1958) is an American singer, songwriter, actress and entrepreneur. Madonna has sold more than 300 million records worldwide and is recognized as the world's top-selling female recording artist of all time by the Guinness World Records. Considered to be one of the "25 Most Powerful Women of the Past Century" by Time for being an influential figure in contemporary music, Madonna is known for continuously reinventing both her music and image, and for retaining a standard of autonomy within the recording industry. Critics have praised Madonna for her diverse musical productions which have also served as a lightning rod for religious controversy.

Born in Bay City, Michigan, she moved to New York City in 1977 to pursue a career in modern dance. After performing in the music groups Breakfast Club and Emmy, she released her debut album in 1983. She followed it with a series of albums that attained immense popularity by pushing the boundaries of lyrical content in mainstream popular music and imagery in her music videos, which became a fixture on MTV. Throughout her career, many of her songs have hit number one on the record charts, including "Like a Virgin", "Papa Don't Preach", "Like a Prayer", "Vogue", "Frozen", "Music", "Hung Up", and "4 Minutes".

Although receiving generally positive reviews for Desperately Seeking Susan (1985), later film appearances received mixed commentary. She received critical acclaim and a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in Motion Picture Musical or Comedy for her role in Evita (1996), but has received harsh feedback for other film roles. Madonna's other ventures include: fashion designer, children's book author, film director and producer. Madonna has been acclaimed as a businesswoman. In 1992, she founded entertainment company Maverick as a joint venture with Time Warner. In 2007, she signed an unprecedented US $120 million contract with Live Nation.

According to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), she is the best-selling female rock artist of the 20th century and the second top-selling female artist in the United States, with 64 million certified albums. In 2008, Billboard magazine ranked Madonna at number two, behind only The Beatles, on the Billboard Hot 100 All-Time Top Artists, making her the most successful solo artist in the history of the chart. She was also inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in the same year.

1. I FUCKED UP


I fucked up, I made a mistake,
Nobody does it better than myself,
I'm sorry, I'm not afraid to say
I wish I could take it back,
But I can't,
I'm so ashamed,
You're in so much pain,
I blamed you when things didn't go my way,
If I didn't, you'd be here,
If I didn't fight back, I'd have no fear,
If I took another path, things would be so different,
But they're not,
I 'coulda just kept my big mouth closed,
I 'coulda just done what I was told,
Maybe I should of turned silver into gold,
But in front of you I was cold,
I fucked up, I made a mistake,
Nobody does it better than myself,
I'm sorry, I'm not afraid to say,
I wish I could take it back,
But I can't,
I thought we had it all,
You brought out the best in me,
And somehow I destroyed the perfect dream,
I thought we were indestructible,

I never imagined we could fall,
You wanna know how to make God laugh,

Tell him your plans,
We 'coulda bought a house with a swimming pool,
Filled it up with warmers, it would be so cool,
'Coulda gone riding stallions in the country side,
With a pack of great things, missing eye to eye,
We 'coulda toured the world in a private jet,
Gotten naked on the beach, get soaking wet,
We 'coulda climbed the mountains,
Seen the perfect sunrise,
Written our names across the sky,
We 'coulda gotten drunk and ridden on the Yoko run,
We 'coulda got ourselves arrested, and sober up,
We 'coulda lived life crazy 'til the day we died,
Instead I made you cry,
I fucked up, I made a mistake,
Nobody does it better than myself,
I'm sorry, je suis désolé
I wish I could take it back,
But I can't,
I fucked up, I made a mistake,
Nobody does it better than myself,
I'm sorry, I'm not ashamed to say,
I wish I have you back,
Maybe one day,

2. JUST A DREAM


[Chorus:]

Was it just a dream?
Did I feel your devotion?
Dreams are never what they seem
Did we just go through the motions?

I keep your photograph by my bed to remind me
That I was part of your life
I say my prayers to the sandman
That he'll find me fast asleep

Sleep has always been kind
And in my dreams you'll always be mine
But in the morning when I wake
I remember that my heart does ache

[chorus, repeat]

I admit that I did my bit to deceive you
But sometimes I was afraid
That this day would come
How could you just leave me all alone now

I have always been strong
So I know that I can go on
But right now I feel so dead inside
Oh sleep come to me, cause that's where I hide

[chorus, repeat]

All that I have, all I ask
All my dreams, they fade so fast
Don't wake me up, not today
All my dreams will fade away


And I want him, and I need him
I can't live and I'd die just to see him
Just to feel his hands on my face
Smell his skin, and his warm embrace
Cause it's all that I have
And it's fading so fast

Mmmm, mmmm
Uh, uh huh

Now I have always been strong
So I know that I can go on
But right now I feel so dead inside
Oh sleep come to me, cause that's where I hide

[chorus, repeat]

All that I have, all that I ask
All my dreams, they fade so fast
Don't wake me up, not today
All my dreams will fade away

(Was it just a dream?)
And I want him, and I need him
I can't live and I'd die just to see him
Don't wake me up, not today
All my dreams will fade away

(Was it just a dream?)
All that I have, all that I ask
All my dreams, they fade so fast
Don't wake me up, not today
All my dreams will fade away
[repeat and fade]

3. LOVE DON'T LIVE HERE ANYMORE


[Chorus:]

You abandoned me
Love don't live here anymore
Just a vacancy
Love don't live here anymore

When you lived inside of me
There was nothing I could conceive
That you wouldn't do for me
Trouble seemed so far away
You changed that right away, baby

[chorus]

Love don't live here anymore

Just emptiness and memories
Of what we had before
You went away
Found another place to stay, another home

[chorus]

In the windmills of my eyes
Everyone can see the loneliness inside me
Why'd ya have to go away
Don't you know I miss you so and need your love

[chorus]

4. ON THIS NIGHT A THOUSAND STARS


[Che:]
Now Eva Peron had every disadvantage
You need if you're gonna succeed
No money, no cash
No father, no bright lights
There was nowhere she'd been
At the age of fifteen

As this tango singer found out
Agustin Magaldi
Who has the distinction of being the first
Man to be of use to Eva Duarte

[Magaldi:]
On this night of a thousand stars
Let me take you to heaven's door
Where the music of love's guitars
Plays for evermore

In the glow of those twinkling lights
We shall love through eternity

On this night in a million nights
Fly away with me

I never dreamed that a kiss could be as sweet as this
But now I know that it can
I used to wander alone without a love of my own
I was a desperate man
But all my grief disappeared and all the sorrow I'd feared
Wasn't there anymore
On that magical day when you first came my way
Mi amor

On this night
On this night
On this night of a thousand stars
Let me take you to heaven's door
Where the music of love's guitars
Plays for evermore

But if I die tonight at least I can say I did what I wanted to do
Tell me how 'bout you?

Just say the word and I will give you what you want

7. PAPA DON'T PREACH

Papa I know you're going to be upset
'Cause I was always your little girl
But you should know by now
I'm not a baby

You always taught me right from wrong
I need your help, daddy please be strong
I may be young at heart
But I know what I'm saying

The one you warned me all about
The one you said I could do without
We're in an awful mess, and I don't mean maybe - please

[Chorus:]

Papa don't preach, I'm in trouble deep
Papa don't preach, I've been losing sleep
But I made up my mind, I'm keeping my baby, oh
I'm gonna keep my baby, mmm...

He says that he's going to marry me
We can raise a little family

Maybe we'll be all right
It's a sacrifice

But my friends keep telling me to give it up
Saying I'm too young, I ought to live it up
What I need right now is some good advice, please

[chorus]

Daddy, daddy if you could only see
Just how good he's been treating me
You'd give us your blessing right now
'Cause we are in love, we are in love, so please

[chorus]

Papa don't preach, I'm in trouble deep
Papa don't preach, I've been losing sleep
[repeat]

Oh, I'm gonna keep my baby, ooh
Don't you stop loving me daddy
I know, I'm keeping my baby

8. LIKE A PRAYER


Life is a mystery
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home

When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there

I hear your voice
It's like an angel sighing
I have no choice, I hear your voice
Feels like flying

I close my eyes
Oh God I think I'm falling
Out of the sky, I close my eyes
Heaven help me

When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there

Like a child
You whisper softly to me
You're in control just like a child
Now I'm dancing

It's like a dream
No end and no beginning
You're here with me it's like a dream
Let the choir sing

When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there

When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power

Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there

Life is a mystery
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home

Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery
Just like a dream, you are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there

Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me

Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me

Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery
Just like a dream, you are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there

Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery
Just like a dream, you are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there
Your voice can take me there
Like a prayer

Just like a prayer
Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a prayer
Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there

Time goes by so slowly for those who wait
No time to hesitate
Those who run seem to have all the fun
I'm caught up
I don't know what to do

Ring ring ring goes the telephone
The lights are on but there's no-one home
Tick tick tock it's a quarter to two
And I'm done
I'm hanging up on you

I can't keep on waiting for you
I know that you're still hesitating
Don't cry for me
'cause I'll find my way
you'll wake up one day
but it'll be too late

Every little thing that you say or do

I'm hung up on you
Waiting for your call

12. FROZEN



[Verse:]

You only see what your eyes want to see
How can life be what you want it to be
You're frozen
When your heart's not open

You're so consumed with how much you get
You waste your time with hate and regret
You're broken
When your heart's not open

[Chorus:]

Mmmmmm, if I could melt your heart
Mmmmmm, we'd never be apart
Mmmmmm, give yourself to me

Mmmmmm, you hold the key

Now there's no point in placing the blame
And you should know I suffer the same
If I lose you
My heart will be broken

Love is a bird, she needs to fly
Let all the hurt inside of you die
You're frozen
When your heart's not open

[chorus]
[verse]
[chorus, repeat]

If I could melt your heart

13. FORBIDDEN LOVE

Just one kiss on my lips
Was all it took to seal the future
Just one look from your eyes
Was like a certain kind of torture

Once upon a time
There was a boy
There was a girl

Just one touch from your hands
Was all it took to make me falter

[Chorus]
Forbidden love
Are we supposed to be together
Forbidden love
Forbidden love
Forbidden love
We seal the destiny forever
Forbidden love
Forbidden love


Just one smile on your face
Was all it took to change my fortune
Just one word from your mouth
Was all I needed to be certain

Once upon a time
There was a boy
There was a girl
Hearts that intertwine
They lived in a different kind of world

[Chorus]

Just one kiss
Just one touch
Just one look

[Chorus X2]

Just one kiss
Just one touch
Just one look
Just one love

Light the candles, 'til they're nice and soft
And when they start to drip, I'm gonna get you off

Only the one that inflicts pain can take it away

1. A GOOD DAY FOR LOVE TO DIE



Seen the change watching it fade
Holding my breath feeling it fail
Working hard wondering why
Can't fix it now so why even try

We've run out of time
It's over I'm over this life
I'm running dry
I'm out of here out of your life

It's a good day for resurrection
It's a good time to break the connection
To the heart that I've been neglecting
It's a good day for love for love to die

Not easy to say harder to do
But that's no kinda life so I'll leave it to you
Working it hard wondering why
Can't fix it now so why even try

We've run out of time
It's over, I'm over this life
I'm running dry
I'm out of here out of your life

It's a good day for resurrection

It's a good time to break the connection
To the heart that I've been neglecting
It's a good day for love for love to die

There's not a chance, there's not a prayer
Can't pull a miracle out of the air
So now I'm leaving letting it lie
Letting it die

We've run out of time
Its over I'm over this life
I'm running dry
I'm out of here out of your life

It's a good day for resurrection
It's a good time to break the connection
To the heart that I've been neglecting
It's a good day for love for love to die

For love to die
For love to die
For love to die
For love to die
It's a good day for love, for love to die
For love to die

2. REPLACE YOUR HEART


You know I never want to hurt you
I don't know why I'd ever want to
Oh oh oh

There's no comfort in another face
So are you gonna let it go to waste
Oh oh oh

I keep on tryin'
But how can I buy in
When they don't compare to you
No oh

I'm running out of patience
Tired of imitations
Looking for someone to
Replace your heart
Everyone I talk to
Is just another not you
Makes me wonder
How we're so far apart
I'm tired of imitations
Running out of patience
Tryin' to replace
Replace your heart

Must be crazy if I let you go
You were everything I need to know
Come back home
Feel like I'm dying
Cause I keep on finding
Every junction leads to here
And I'm lost

I'm running out of patience
Tired of imitations
Looking for someone to
Replace your heart
Everyone I talk to

Is just another not you
Makes me wonder
How we're so far apart
I'm tired of imitations
Running out of patience
Tryin' to replace
Replace your heart

Everywhere I turn
Is the wrong direction
Everyone I see is the wrong reflection
Reminding me that I just
Can't replace your heart

I'm running out of patience
Tired of imitations
Looking for someone to
Replace your heart
Everyone I talk to
Is just another not you
Makes me wonder
How we're so far apart

I'm tired of imitations
Running out of patience
Tryin' to replace
Replace your heart

I've been through the crowds
Call your name out loud
But there's still no way to
Replace you

I've looked everywhere
Everywhere everywhere
To replace your heart
To replace your heart

3. WHERE I BELONG

I'm on my own and the road is long
I'll do what it takes
Just finding a place
where I belong

being down not out
being lost not found
no words, no sound on this lonely track
the wind can roll, the storm can rage
it's all the same I'm not turning back

over night things can change, always

I'm on my own and the road is long
I'll do what it takes
Just finding a place
where I belong
dusty tracks kicking on and on
not a coin to my name
Just finding a place
where I belong

no chains to break
no walls to climb
just space and time waiting for me
no peers?, no fears, no shame, no pride
just stars to guide where I need to be


over night things can change, always

I'm on my own and the road is long
I'll do what it takes
Just finding a place
where I belong
dusty tracks kicking off and on
not a coin to my name
Just finding a place
where I belong
where I belong
where I belong

I'm on my own and the road is long
I'll do what it takes
Just finding a place

dusty tracks kicking off and on
not a coin to my name
Just finding a place
where I belong

I'm on my own (where I belong) and the road is long (where I belong)
I'll do what it takes (where I belong)
Just finding a place (where I belong)
dusty tracks (where I belong) kicking off and on (where I belong)
not a coin to my name (where I belong)
Just finding a place
Where I belong

4. HEART VACANCY

I hear your heart cry for love,
But you won’t let me make it right.
You were hurt, but I decided,
That you were worth the fight.
Every night, you lock up,
You won’t let me come inside.
But the look in your eyes,
As I can turn the tide.

In your heart, in your heart, in your heart,
I can tell you can fit one more.
In your heart, in your heart, in your heart,
I don’t care who was there before.

I hear your heart cry for love,
Then you act like there’s no room.
Room for me, or anyone,
'Don’t disturb' is all I see.
Close the door, turn the key,
On everything that we could be.
If loneliness would move out,
I’d fill the vacancy.
In your heart, in your heart, in your heart,
In your heart, in your heart, in your heart.

This ain’t the Heartbreak Hotel,
Even though I know it well.
Those no shows, they sure tell,
In the way you hold yourself.
Don’t you fret, should you get,
Another cancellation.
Give me a chance I’d make a,

Permanent reservation.

In your heart, in your heart, in your heart,
I can tell you can fit one more.
Open up make a brand new start,
I don’t care who’s stayed before.

I hear your heart cry for love,
Then you act like there’s no room.
Room for me, or anyone,
“Don’t disturb” is all I see.
Close the door, turn the key,
On everything that we could be.
If loneliness would move out,
I’d fill the vacancy.
In your heart, in your heart, in your heart,
In your heart, in your heart, in your heart.

When I, talk to you, on the phone,
you, listen close.

I hear your heart cry for love,
Then you act like there’s no room.
Room for me, or anyone,
“Don’t disturb” is all I see.
Close the door, turn the key,
On everything that we could be.
If loneliness would move out,
I’d fill the vacancy.
In your heart, in your heart, in your heart,
In your heart, in your heart, in your heart.

5. CHASING THE SUN

I'm better
So much better now
I see the light, touch the light,
We're together now
I'm better
So much better now
Look to the skies, gives me life
We're together now
We've only just begun
Hypnotised by drums
Until forever comes
You'll find us chasing the sun
They said this day wouldn't come
We refused to run
We've only just begun
You'll find us chasing the sun
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun
(repeat)
Daylight's fading
We're gonna play in the dark
So let's go, do it again
And now it feels so amazing
To see you coming
We'll never grow old again
You'll find us chasing the sun


I'm never
I'm never down
Lying here, staring up
And you're looking down
I'm never
I'm never down
Live forever, forever
With you around
We've only just begun
Hypnotised by drums
Until forever comes
You'll find us chasing the sun
They said this day wouldn't come
We refused to run
We've only just begun
You'll find us chasing the sun
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun
(repeat)
Daylight's fading
We're gonna play in the dark
So let's go, do it again
And now it feels so amazing
To see you coming, and
We'll never grow old again
You'll find us chasing the sun

6. GLAD YOU CAME


The sun goes down,the stars come out,
And all that counts is here and now,
My universe will never be the same,
I'm glad you came.
You cast a spell on me, spell on me
You hit me like the sky fell on me, fell on me
And I decided you look well on me, well on me
So let's go somewhere no one else can see, you and me.
Turn the lights out now,now I'll take you by the hand,
Hand you another drink,drink it if you can,
Can you spend a little time,time is slipping away,
Away from us so stay,stay with me,I can make,
Make you glad you came.
The sun goes down,the stars come out,
And all that counts is here and now,
My universe will never be the same,
I'm glad you came,I'm glad you came.
You cast a spell on me, spell on me
You hit me like the sky fell on me, fell on me


And I decided you look well on me, well on me
So let's go somewhere no one else can see, you and me
Turn the lights out now,now I'll take you by the hand,
Hand you another drink,drink it if you can,
Can you spend a little time,time is slipping away,
Away from us so stay,stay with me,I can make,
Make you glad you came.

7. ALL TIME LOW


[Songwriters: Drewett, Edward James; Hector, Wayne Anthony; Mac, Steve;]



Praying won't do it
Hating won't do it
Drinking won't do it
Fighting won't knock you out of my head

Hiding won't hide it
Smiling won't hide it
Like I ain't tried it
Everyone's tried it now and failed somehow

So when you gonna let me
When you gonna let me out, out?

And if you know
How do you get up from an all time low?
I'm in pieces, seems like peace is the only thing I'll never know
How do you get out, get out?

'Cause driving won't do it
Flying won't do it
Denying won't do it
Crying won't drown it out, what you said

When I'm standing on the yellow line, waiting at the station
Or I'm late for work, a vital presentation
If you call me now girl without reservation
I would try to break through

But if you know
How do you get up from an all time low?
I'm in pieces, seems like peace is the only thing I'll never know

How do you get up from an all time low?

I can't even find a place to start
How do I choose between my head and heart?
'Til it ceases, I'll never know
How do you get up from an all time low?

A low, a low, a low, a low, a low, a low
Can you hear me?
A low, a low, a low, a low, a low, a low
Can't you hear me?
A low, a low, a low, a low, a low, a low
Can you hear me?
A low, a low, a low, a low, a low, a low

And if you know
How do you get up from an all time low?
I'm in pieces, seems like peace is the only thing I'll never know
How do you get up from an all time low?

I can't even find a place to start
How do I choose between my head and heart
'Til it ceases, I'll never know
How do you get up from an all time low?

I can't even find a place to start
How do I choose between my head and heart
'Til it ceases, I'll never know
How do you get up from an all time low?

8. GOLD FOR EVER


Say my name like it's the last time,
Live today like its your last night,
We want to cry but we know its alright,
Cause I'm with you and your with me,
Butterflies, butterflies..we were meant to fly,
You and I, you and I..colors in the sky,
We could rule the world someday, somehow but we'll never be as bright as we are now.

We're standing in a light that won't fade,
Tomorrow's coming but this won't change,
Cause some days stay gold forever.
The memory of being here with you,
Is one I'm gonna take my life through,
Cause some days stay gold forever.

Promise me you'll stay the way you are,
Keep the fire alive and stay young at heart,
When the storm feels like it could blow you out remember,
you got me and I got you..cause we are, butterflies, butterflies..we were meant to fly,
You and I, you and I..colors in the sky,
When the innocence is dead and gone,

These will be the times we look back on.
We're standing in a light that won't fade,
Tomorrow's coming but this won't change,
Cause some days stay gold forever.
The memory of being here with you,
Is one I'm gonna take my life through,
Cause some days stay gold forever.

I won't, I won't let your memory go cause your colors they burn so bright,
Who knows, who knows what tomorrow will hold but I know that we'll be alright

'Cause we're
Butterflies, butterflies..we were meant to fly,
You and I, you and I..colors in the sky,
We could rule the world someday, somehow but we'll never be as bright as we are now.

We're standing in a light that won't fade,
Tomorrow's coming but this won't change,
Cause some days stay gold forever.
The memory of being here with you,
Is one I'm gonna take my life through,
Cause some days stay gold forever.

9. WAR ZONE


I can't believe I had to see
The girl of my dreams cheating on me
The pain you caused has left me dead inside
I'm gonna make sure you regret that night

I feel you close, I feel you breathe
And now it's like you're here
You're haunting me
You're out of line
You're out of sight
You're the reason that we started this fight

But I know I just gotta let it go
I should'a known
I gotta learn to say goodbye now
I throw my armour down
And leave the battleground
For the final time now
I know I'm running from a warzone

In our house, I hate that place
Everywhere I walk I see your face
Try to erase a memory with a flame
And hope I never see you again
Standing here in this burning room


You know the end could never come so soon
It's clear to me the lies you use
The ones that kill me ain't hurting you

So I know I just gotta let it go
I shoulda' known
I gotta learn to say goodbye now
I throw my armour down
And leave the battleground
For the final time now
I know I'm running from a warzone

I'm running from a warzone
I can't do this anymore
I'm running from a warzone
What are we fighting for?

I'm running from a warzone

I know I just gotta let it go
I shoulda' known
I gotta learn to say goodbye now
I throw my armour down
And leave the battleground
For the final time now
I know I'm running from a warzone

11. MADE

You could hurt with the words,
You could change my life,
You could tell me the truth,
It would cut like a knife but I won't let go
But I won't let go, but I won't let go

You could fall, hit the wall
You could lose your way
You could lose, you could bruise,
Spend it all in day but I won't let go
But I won't let go, but I won't let go

Cause if I had to save someone,
I'd still save you
And if I had to pray for someone,
I'd pray for you

Cause you know we are made for each other
Can't take that away, made for each other
Like sunshine and day, made for each other,
I'm here to stay
Cause you know we are made for each other
I'm made for you, made for each other
Like stars and the moon, made for each other
We'll see it through
(Cause you know we are made)

They could take, they could hate
They could break our hearts
They could try all they want,
Never tear us apart, we will not let go,
We will not let go, we will not let go


Cause if I had to save someone, I'd still save you
And if I had to pray for someone, I'd pray for you

Cause you know we are made for each other
Can't take that away, made for each other
Like sunshine and day, made for each other, I'm here to stay
Cause you know we are made for each other
I'm made for you, made for each other
Like stars and the moon, made for each other
We'll see it through

Cause you know we are made, made, made, made
All of them are fake, fake, fake, fake
We just gotta break, break, break, break
You know we are made, made, made, made

Cause you know we are made for each other
Can't take that away, made for each other
Like sunshine and day, made for each other,
I'm here to stay
Cause you know we are made for each other
I'm made for you, made for each other
Like stars and the moon, made for each other
We'll see it through (Cause you know we are made)

Cause you know we are made...

12. I WANT IT ALL

Take a moment listen please
Words like these don't come with ease
You took my heart and kept it locked
Now it's time to let it go

I want it all or nothing at all, to have you here
Some people fall to hold on to their tears
And if you want it all, I'd do anything to see you through
And if I fall my heart holds on to you



Just one look and I'll subside
When I'm with you my love can't hide
Take a chance, don't run away
With every breath I need to say

I want it all or nothing at all, to have you here
Some people fall to hold on to their tears
And if you want it all, I'll do anything to see this through
And if I fall my heart holds on to you

1. WHERE IS MY LOVE

I want a woman I can do things for
Give her the world if she wants it
All things and even more
And anything her little heart desires
There's nothing I wouldn't do
And if she doesn't get quite enough
I'll break down to her knees
Until she screams
Please give me more

Where tell me
Where is my love, tell me
Where
Where is the girl of my dreams
For me
Oh, where is my love

Oh, I'm the kinda man that wants a special girl
To be the only tender in my world
She's the kinda girl that wants a special guy
To love her to the day she dies
Oh honey, the shame about it is
You don't even know I'm out there
Seems like I feel you near
Are you in this room
Will I meet you soon
Oh, please come to me

[Hook x2]

[Spoken:]
You know
They say love is a many splendid thing, baby
So complicated, but so good
But you know we
We can't seem to find each other, can we baby
I mean, I'm looking for you
And you're looking for me too, but
I tell you what
I'm gonna keep searching 'til I find you baby, 'cause
I know you're out there somewhere
I won't give up on you baby
Just please come to me now, darlin'

Please tell me

2. ALL THIS LOVE

I had some problems
And no one could seem to solve them
But you found the answer
You told me to take a chance
And learn the way of love, my baby
And all that it had to offer
In time you will see that love won't let you down.

You said that you loved me
Said hurt only came to pass me
It sounded so convincing
That I gave it half a chance
And learned the way of love my baby
There is so much love inside me
And all that I have I give my all to you
And all this love is waiting for you
And all, all my love is waiting for you
All this love is waiting for you
And baby all, baby all this love is waiting for you
Oh, I love how you make me feel this way
My love is getting stronger every day
And after all I went and put myself through
I found that all I really needed was you

As the sun has it's place up in the sky
I love you so dearly
And all the same, there's no need to wonder why
I need you, please hear me

Say you really love me, baby
Say you really love me, darling
For I really love you baby
You know I really love you darling

Say you really love me, baby
Say you really love me, darling
For I really love you baby
Sure enough love you darling

Say, say you love me......

3. LOVE ME IN A SPECIAL WAY


(Verse 1)
You knew you had me
With your sensuos charm
Yet you looked so alarmed
As I walked on by
An awesome wonder
You had to know why
I did not respond
To carry on

(Chorus 2xs)
Love me in a special way
What more can I say
Love me now

(Verse 2)
Love me now
'Cause I'm special
Not the average kind
Who'd accept any line

That sounds good
So reach into your chain of thoughts
Try to find something new
What works so well for you before
For me it just won't do

(Chorus 2xs)

(Bridge)
So reach into your chain of thoughts
Try to find somethin' new
What works so well for you before
For me it just won't do

(Chorus 'til fade)

6. LOST WITHOUT HER LOVE



Looking out my window
Watching through the rain
Wishing she were here right next to me
One chance in a million
I know that's all I have
Whoa, a miracle's the one thing that I need

[Bridge:]
(Want her back) the way it used to be
(Never had) her long enough
Oh, can't you see

[Chorus:]
I'm lost without her love
I don't know where to run
I just can't get her out of my dreams
Oh I'm lost without her love
Knowing she's the one
Who could ever hope to rescue me

Talking to my shadow
Saying I'm all right
Trying to get through this lonely night
Knowing just how empty
Forever's gonna be
Living without her here by my side

[Bridge & Chorus]

Now, now it all begins
I start to pretend
I see her in the distance in my mind
Wrapped up in these chains
Her memory still remains
She's just too hard to shake

[Chorus x3: fade]

7. HOW CAN YOU LOVE ME




You know what?
You're such a perfect lover,
And baby you can do better with me,
But you stand by me like a soldier,
Sweet loving until,
That's right baby!
Set me up on a pedestal,
Still love me more,
It's a mystery why I'm so lucky,
I keep trying to figure it out!

[Chorus:]
Tell me how can you love me so much, girl?
Put up with all of the crazy things that I do
How can you love me so much, baby?
I can always count on you.

I think you're trying to tame me,
Yes, you are!
But I don't think you gonna change me no,
The same...
I'm so unpredictable,
Your love is so unconditional for me.
I wanna know why!

[Chorus:]
Tell me how can you love me so much, girl?
Put up with all of the crazy things that I do
How can you love me so much, baby?
I can always count on you.

I recall so many days,
... my selfish ways,
But you remained just as beautiful,
You never, ever change,
Your love is strong,
It goes on and on.

Girl, put your weights on my shoulders,
I'll carry, that's what good lovers do!
I'll have a... in pleasing for you,
Girl tonight, this is all about you.

[Chorus: x2]
Tell me how can you love me so much, girl?
Put up with all of the crazy things that I do
How can you love me so much, baby?
I can always count on you.

9. ALL THIS LOVE


I had some problems
And no one could seem to solve them
But you found the answer
You told me to take a chance
And learn the way of love, my baby
And all that it had to offer
In time you will see that love won't let you down.

You said that you loved me
Said hurt only came to pass me
It sounded so convincing
That I gave it half a chance
And learned the way of love my baby
There is so much love inside me
And all that I have I give my all to you
And all this love is waiting for you
And all, all my love is waiting for you
All this love is waiting for you
And baby all, baby all this love is waiting for you
Oh, I love how you make me feel this way
My love is getting stronger every day
And after all I went and put myself through
I found that all I really needed was you

As the sun has it's place up in the sky
I love you so dearly
And all the same, there's no need to wonder why
I need you, please hear me

Say you really love me, baby
Say you really love me, darling
For I really love you baby
You know I really love you darling

Say you really love me, baby
Say you really love me, darling
For I really love you baby
Sure enough love you darling

Say, say you love me.....

10. WHEN I SEE YOU




Ra ra ra ra, ohhh
Hooo, huuu.

Just a thought of you, be with someone else,
That will never do, want you for myself,
Girl, what we've been through,
Baby, me and you, guess we never knew who turned out to be who.

[Chorus:]
'Cause when I see you, I just die, girl
I can't explain and my heart stops breathing
Without you, in my life, girl, the feeling takes me away,
When, I see you, I couldn't lie, girl
I never wanted to wish somebody,
New, in my life girl,
And that's the way I feel when I see you, you, you.

No more loneliness, no more emptiness,
Tell I love you strong, let's hold on to this,
I will cherish you, let me sheld to you,
And I promise you, all your dreams will come true.

[Chorus:]
'Cause when I see you, I just die, girl
I can't explain and my heart stops breathing
Without you, in my life, girl, the feeling takes me away,
When, I see you, I couldn't lie, girl
I never wanted to wish somebody,
New, in my life girl,
And that's the way I feel when I see you girl.

I never felt this much about anything,
Girl you know you got me good... and you sing,
I say.,.of your faces, and strangers of places,
It doesn't matter what I do.

[Chorus:]
'Cause when I see you, I just die, girl
I can't explain and my heart stops breathing
Without you, in my life, girl, the feeling takes me away,
When, I see you, I couldn't lie, girl
I never wanted to wish somebody,
New, in my life girl,
And that's the way I feel when I see you girl.

All this time, I know what we've been through,

11. YOU GOT THE LOVE I WANT



All alone sad and brokenhearted
Didn't have no peace within
Thought that I would feel this way forever
Oh, but darlin' you brought the Heaven back again
Sun didn't shine, it just kept on raining

So I thought my life was over
But you brought the rainbow at the end of the storm
And if I had to do it all over again
I'd start my life with you, oh baby

You got the love I want
(You're my Heaven)
And I know that you got the love I want
(You're my angel)
You got the love I want
(Can't stop thinkin' about you, baby)
Long as I live my life
I want to live my life for you

I must confess, girl, I love you, baby
Although at times I try not to show it
But you got that way of always makin' me say
Here I go, I'm givin' in again
Sometimes, I just sit down and watch you, baby

What did I ever do to deserve you?
You don't ever have to worry bout
What another girl may say or do
'Cause I've searched and I've searched girl, my whole life through
And none of them compare to you, no baby

You got the love I want
(You're my Heaven)
And I know that you got the love I want
(You're my angel)
You got the love I want
(Can't stop thinkin' about you, baby)
Long as I live my life
I want to live my life for you

I can't stop thinkin' 'bout you, baby
You occupy each moment of the day
Me for you, you for me
That's the way it's supposed to be, baby
Shout it from a mountain
'Cause I want the world to know that

You got the love I want
You got the love I want
(You're my angel)
You got the love I want
(Nobody else will do)
Long as I live my life
I want to live my life for you

You touch my heart, baby
I never thought that I could find
Somebody like you, baby
You're so sweet, you're so kind
I swear nobody loves me like you do
And honey as long as I live
I want to live my life for you

You got the love I want
(Got my soul, don't cha know?)
You got the love I want
(You must have been sent from above)
You got the love I want
(Hey baby, oh girl)
Long as I live

12. WHO IS JOHNNY

There she goes and knows I'm dying
When she says, "Who is Johnny?"
Games with names that girl is playing
All she says is "Who is Johnny?"

I try to understand because I'm people too
And playing games is part of human nature
My heart's in overdrive
It's great to be alive

Chorus:
"Who's Johnny?" she said
And smiled in her special way
"Johnny" she said
"You know I love you"
"Who's Johnny?" she said
And tried to look the other way
Her eyes gave her away

She makes sure I see her teasing
Hear her say "Who is Johnny?"
There's no way to take this easy
Hear her say "Who is Johnny?"

I really couldn't help but fall in love with her
Her being there
has made my life worth living
I knew it from the start
That I would lose my heart

CHORUS

Still pretending
Who's Johnny Who's Johnny
Who's Johnny Who's Johnny
"Who's Johnny?" she said
And tried to look the other way
Her eyes gave her away

Girls like her are very special
Girls like her don't rest
'Till you too are a believer
'Till you too have caught their fever

There she goes and knows I'm dying
When she says "Who is Johnny?"

13. LOVE ALWAYS



"Love Always"

I got a secret for you
Can't believe myself
But ever since you've been gone
I think of no one else
I've even tried to forget
But nothing can make me

I know that it's so hard to be true
Under the summer skies
I'll write your name in my Book
At least a thousand times
And every day you're away
It's drivin' me crazy

So I'll write you every night
And I'll sign my name "Love always"
And even if the sun falls down
I will always be around
Forever and always
Darlin', if we both can wait
We'll have a time to celebrate
For the rest of our lives, love always

And lots of people I know
Try to shape your mind
But that can't happen to me
I'm not the jealous kind
No one can change what I feel
And nothing can make me

Still I'll write to you every night
And I'll sign my name, "Love always"
And even if the sun falls down
I will always be around
Forever and always
Darlin', if we both can wait, oh
We'll have the time to celebrate
For the rest of our lives, love always
For the best of our lives, love always
For the rest of our lives

We'll always be
So faithfully
Just hang on to me forever

So I'll write you every night
And I'll sign my name, "Love always"
Oh, and if by now you haven't guessed
I will add one more P.S.
For the rest of our lives, love always
For the best of our lives, love always

I'll sign this letter to you "Love always"
Oh, know it
Oh... oh... oh... I Love you baby
Oh, and if I do over and over again
Sign my name over in full
And at the end and rest of our lives, love always
Love always
Ooh girl
Sounds so good to me, mmm
For the rest of our lives love always, oh
For the rest of our lives love always, oh da da
Oh, I, I gotta secret for you
I don't wanna stop, sounds so good to me
Oh, ever and a day
I'll always love you
Ever and a day
Oh

14. I WANNA HEAR IT FROM MY HEART




[Verse 1:]
Lying here close beside you
Thinking of times before
Love was a game and love me more
Now I need to feel the rhythm
Coming from deep inside
I wanna know his right and I...

[Chorus:]
I wanna hear it from my heart
Wanna be sure before I start
And maybe his love is real
And I... I wanna know before I fall
To give all I got
Don't give nothing at all
I wanna hear it from my heart, oh

[Verse 2:]
Maybe I'm just too cautious
But maybe I need some time
Time to convince this heart of mine, oh... oh... oh...
That I can really trust you
(Really trust you)
'Cause I've learned that words can lie
I hear it from your lips but I...

[Chorus:]
I wanna hear it from my heart
(Hear it from my heart)
Wanna be sure before I start
And maybe his love is real
And I, I, I wanna know before I fall
To give all I got
Don't give nothing at all
I wanna hear it from my heart, oh

[Intsrumental: with breakdown]
Mmm... mmm... mmm...
Oh, no
I hear it from your lips but I...

[Chorus:]
I wanna hear it from my heart
(Hear it from my heart)
Wanna be sure before I start
And maybe his love is real
And I, I, I wanna know before I fall
To give all I got
Don't give nothing at all
(Nothing at all)
Before I fall in love, oh

I wanna hear it from my heart
Wanna know where we stand right from the start
Wanna know that his love is real love
I wanna hear it from my heart
(Hear it from my heart)
To give all I got
Don't give nothing at all
(Nothing at all)
I wanna hear it from my heart

(I wanna hear it from my heart)
(Wanna be sure before I start)
Oh... oh... oh... oh... oh... oh... baby
I wanna hear it from my heart

1. AT THIS MOMENT


What did you think
I would do at this moment
When you're standing before me
With tears in your eyes?
Trying to tell me that you
Have found you another
And you just don't love me no more

What did you think
I would say at this moment
When I'm faced with the knowledge
That you just don't love me
Did you think I would curse you?
Or say things to hurt you?
Cause you just don't love me no more

Did you think I could hate you?
Or raise my hands to you?

Now come on, you know me too well
How could I hurt you
When darling, I love you
And you know... I'd never hurt you

What do you think, I would give at this moment?
If you'd stay I'd subtract twenty-years from my life
I'd fall down on my knees
Kiss the ground that you walk on
If I could just hold you again

I'd fall down on my knees
Kiss the ground that you walk on, baby
If I could just hold you...again

2. HOPELESS ROMANTIC


Sometimes on sundays
I sit by the TV
Watching sad movies alone
When it gets to the part
Where the little dog dies
I cry
Somtimes I think
I was born just a little
Behind or ahead of my time
I live in a dream world
Of caring and sharing
And good guys and nobosy lies

I'm a believer
And much more than anything

I belieeve in you
You're not a deceiver
And if you told me the ocean went dry
I'd believe it was true

So call me a hopeless romantic
Because I can still believe
I can still believe in true love
ANd hopeless romantics
Still can find a way
To make true love last these days



VIDEO


3. I CAN TAKE CARE OF MYSELF

Your wardrobe's purchased
At the latest boutique
Your place is furnished
Like the President's suite

Your freezer's filled up
With the finest of meat
Somehow you manage
On a hundred a week

They say you like to feel
White gold on your neck
They say when you make love
You like to direct

And that new sports car
You proceeded to wreck
They say I ought to ask
Who picked up the check

[CHORUS]
I can take care of myself
My friends all say
I ought to think twice
I can take care of myself
I don't need nobody's advice
You're so nice

Attempts to charm you
Met with little success
I never met someone
So hard to impress

Until one day by chance
You saw my address
The next day you had on
Your lowest cut dress

[Repeat CHORUS]

Aw, play the song, boys
Play the song

They could be correct
In their judgment of you
Maybe you'll take me
And make me a fool

But I'm a big boy
And I know what to do
It might be worth it
To wake up next to you

[Repeat CHORUS]

I can take care of myself
I don't need nobody's advice
Oh, I can take care of myself
I don't need nobody's advice
Yeah, I can take care of myself
I don't need nobody's advice

I was born in New York City
I was born in Georgia
Girl you're lookin kinda pretty
Don't you think we oughta
Get to know each other better
Take the time to find out while we can
Gotta be some soul between a country girl and a city man
We could find, we could find it's groovy just to cross the line

City boy had your eggs and bacon
You were raised on cornbread
The rooster crowed while I was wakin
Bout the time I was going to bed
Bet we got a lot in common
Take the time to find out while we can
Gotta be some soul between a country girl and a city man
We could find, we could find it's groovy just to cross the line

We could find, we could find it's groovy just to cross the line
He was born in New York City
She was born in Georgia
Girl you're lookin fine
Don't you think we oughta
Get to know each other better
Take the time to find out while we can
Gotta be some soul between a country girl and a city man
We could find, we could find it's groovy just to cross the line

That man's from New York City
She's a girl from Georgia town
We could find, we could find it's groovy just to cross the line

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]

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)...

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

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

She's gonna have you at her beck and call.
So why refuse

When all resistance is impossible!

Suppose - who knows? She's not above suspicion. . . .

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

1. HERE I AM



Why is that you could only see the worst in me?
I swear sometimes I feel like it nurtures me
But to keep it all real is kinda hurtin' me
I could say I'm done with it, but it lurks in me
So I'm a just tell myself that it works for me
Take a real long drive in the Mer-ce-des
And I might pop a couple of them per-ca-ces
Yeah that'll make me transform to Hercules

[Chorus]
Here I am, Here I am, so take me, as I am
Here I am, Here I am, so take me, as I am
Here I am, Here I am, so take me, as I am


I swear to God, man, everything in life is old
And the only thing that change is the price of gold
Even in the afterlife I'm a fight your soul
Cause the second time around I'll be twice as bold
So do you take me to be who I am?

To have and to hold till death do us part
Cause if not it's just best we both part
Cause how am I supposed to finish what you start?
You got me thinkin' twice to just breathe
Then you say I won't survive if I leave
But I got a couple of tricks up my sleeve
I no longer need your attention, at ease

It's a joke, it's a game,
Why am I still keeping score?
I'm in pain, I'm ashamed
I'm a woman, hear me roar

It's a joke, it's a game,
Why am I still keeping score?
I'm in pain, I'm ashamed
I'm a woman, hear me roar

Now it's a joke, it's a game,
Why am i still keeping score?
I'm in pain, I'm ashamed
I'm a woman, hear me roar

It's a joke, it's a game,
Why am i still keeping score?
I'm in pain, I'm ashamed
I'm a woman, hear me roar

2.. YOUR LOVE




[Songwriters: Freeman, David Edward Dan; Hughes, Joseph; Maraj, Onika Tanya;]

Shawty, I'ma only tell you this once, you the illest
And for your lovin' I'ma Die Hard like Bruce Willis
You got spark, you, you got spunk
You, you got something all the girls want
You're like a candy store and I'm a toddler
You got me wantin' more and ma-ma-more of

Your love, your love, your love, your love
Your love, your love, your love, your love
Your love, your love, your love, your love

Your love, your love, your love, your love

Yo, he the type to pop tags and be cockin' the brim
Might breeze through The Ave, might stop at the gym
And he keep a do rag, keep his wave on swim
Wa-waves on swim so they hate on him

Anyway I think I met him sometime before
In a different life or where I record
I mean he was Adam, I think I was Eve
But my vision ends with the apple on the tree

S on my chest 'cause I'm ready to save him
'Cause I'm the one like I'm Tracy McGrady
And I think I love him like Eminem is calling Shady
When he call me mama, lil' mama, I call him baby

Shawty, I'ma only tell you this once, you the illest
And for your lovin' I'ma Die Hard like Bruce Willis
You got spark, you, you got spunk
You, you got something all the girls want
You're like a candy store and I'm a toddler

You got me wantin' more and ma-ma-more of

Your love, your love, your love, your love
Your love, your love, your love, your love
Your love, your love, your love, your love
Your love, your love, your love, your love

He the type to keep a couple hundred grand in a rubber band
Just left Money Gram in the Lemon Lam
Hot damn, make me scream like summer jam
I mean that nigga must be from the motherland

Anyway, I think I met him in the sky
When I was a geisha, he was a samurai
Somehow I understood him when he spoke Thai
Never spoke lies and he never broke fly

S on my chest, let me get my cape on
With a certificate that I change my name on
N-n-n-name on
With a certificate that I change my name on

Shawty, I'ma only tell you this once, you the illest
And for your lovin' I'ma Die Hard like Bruce Willis
You got spark, you, you got spunk
You, you got something all the girls want
You're like a candy store and I'm a toddlor
You got me wantin' more and ma-ma-more of

Your love, your love, your love, your love
Your love, your love, your love, your love
Your love, your love, your love, your love
Your love, your love, your love, your love

Find me in the dark
I'll be in the stars
Find me in your heart
I'm in need of your love

3. SWEETEST GIRL

When a good girl gone, she gone forever
See yOu cant make it rain without the stormy weather
And its funny when it rains, when it rains it pours
Would of never happened if I stayed indoors
Would of never happened if I never traded in my textbooks
Cuz now Im hot but all the credits say its just looks
They say Im too sexy and say Im sellin out
Cuz when I come out niggas get they umbrellas out
I take the L cuz I dont want to see my brother lose
Been through it all but I could never fill my mothers shoes
And nahh I dont want no hand out, I just want my ad lips to get paned out

And I just wanna tell the girls that could feel me, That I just play the cards the nigga dealed me

See everything I been through could of killed me
That why I really aint nothin, yu could tell me
Yu see I live for the bill, I die for the bill
And I still make sure I read the bi to the bill
And every time I write Im persist in my skill
Its more outta life then just ice in ya grill
Fuck me lay me, Fuck yu pay me, This is what yu made me
Said yu want to drape me, turned around and raped me, Now yu aint mistake me

Where my girls at, where my girls at.
If they frontin then tell them where my money at. (Repeat)

5. TOP OF THE WORLD.


I remember standing in the mirror
Searching for a winner but I didn’t see it in her
Now I’ve gone from a zero to a super-hero-oh-oh
Woah, woah
Chasing dreams got me all over the World
Now I’m sitting on top of the World
We winning, we winning
Cause we sitting on top of the World

[Verse 1]
This is for the little girls that say Nicki you pretty
When you come to the city you dont act high for Diddy?
You be up on the block, posted up in the drop
And everybody get up in whether you like it or not
But how them girls blow up but don’t come to the hood
How they turn they nose up like they don’t come from the hood
Most of them be in sight til it’s time to pitch
Thats when everything they write be a contradiction
I tell em I do it for the love
I do it for the hugs
I do it for the buzz
I do it for the thugs
I do it for the rich
I do it for the poor
I do it for the kids that can’t do no more


I remember standing in the mirror
Searching for a winner but I didn’t see it in her
Now I’ve gone from a zero to a super-hero-oh-oh
Woah, woah
Chasing dreams got me all over the World
Now I’m sitting on top of the World
We winning, we winning
Cause we sitting on top of the World

[Verse 2]
This is for my little homies that be asking for kisses
When I’m granting they wishes they be passing they digits

They be up on the block, getting screwed by the cops
Cuttin’ school gettin knocked whether they like it or not
They’ll break in your door, might break in your jaw
They’ll bring back a lye if you bring them an O
But what you really ain’t know they airborne for stardom
With the ball in the gardens, stand tall, no dodgin’
No matter the squadron, lieutenant or sargeant
Air Force, the army, air force and army fatigues is on em
No heats is on ‘em
Cause grandmamma prayed that he’d leave the corner.



[Verse 3]
I remember when I lost everything in a fire
Now I got fire, 23′s almost higher
Shout outs to my brothers Jelani and Makiah
Thanks to the Messiah, my money getting higher
One time for my niggas that be huggin’ the block
2 Times for my niggas that be ducking the cops
3 Times for my girls that pushing they own rides
Stooshing they own rides from bitches they dont like
Sometimes you get mad, wanna blaze the gun
I see you without a man, might erase ya son
Well look, when you blow up, everybody go shudder
This goes out to everybody on the come up


(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Cause we sitting on top of the world
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Cause we sitting on top of the world
We winning, winning

I can be selfish
You're so impatient
Sometimes I feel like Marilyn Monroe
I'm insecure yea I make mistake
Sometimes I feel like I'm at the end of a road

Defend my honor
Protect my pride

But looking back

You always told me
Forget the haters
Just get my money
Just get my weight up
Know when I'm lying
Know when I'm crying
It's like you got it
Down to a science
Why am I trying
No you ain't buying
I tried to fight it
Back with defiance
You make me laugh
You make me hoarse
From yelling at you
And getting at you
Picking up dishes
Throwing them at you
Why are you speaking
When no one asked you
You see right through me
How do you do that shit? x3
How do you x5

You see right through me
How do you do that shit? x3

Could you see through me
Cuz you say Nicki
And I say who me
And you say no you

And I say screw you

Then you start dressin
And you start leavin
And I start crying
And I start screamin
The heavy breathin
Well, what's the reason
Always get the reaction you wanted
I'm actually fronting
I'm asking you something
Yo, answer this question
Class is in session
Tired of letting
Passive aggression
Control my mind
Capture my soul
Okay you're right
Just let it go
Okay you got it
It's in the can
Before I played it
You knew my hand
You could turn a free
Throw to a goal
Nigga got the peep
Hole to my soul
