His fourth studio album, Libra Scale, was released on November 22, 2010.

1. DON'T FALL IN LOVE


Please don't say
What I think
You're about to say
Don't take
The mood away
By asking questions

You're not my only girl
I ain't tryna be your man
We had an understanding
So then why are you acting

No emotions, babe
We just having fun
All I'm gonna do
Is hurt you
(Baby
Please don't fall) (2x)

It's kinda why
I didn't wanna start this
In the first place
(Just a physical thing)
But you lied to me
Said it's cool
If we do our thing
Girl
You know I never ever
Lead you
On that's wrong
I change my ways
Baby

Stay this way

[Songwriters: Smith, Shaffer; Eriksen, Mikkel; Hermansen, Tor Erik;]

My sexy love
So sexy

She makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up
Just one touch and I erupt
Like a volcano and cover her with my love
Baby girl you make me say ooh ooh ooh

And I just can't think of anything else I'd rather do
Than to hear you sing, sing my name the way you do
When we do our thing when we do the things we do
Baby girl you make me say ooh ooh ooh

Sexy love girl the things you do

Keep me sprung, keep me running back to you
(Oh baby I)
Ooh I love making love to you
Baby girl you know you're

Say that I'm simp and I'm sprung [incomprehensible]
I can't help she makes me say ooh ooh ooh

And I just can't think of anything else I'd rather do

3. LONELY


Da Da du
Da Da du
Da Da du

(Uh uh)
42nd Street, 4 AM (Uh)
I'm rolling slowly no, destination in mind
Driver looking at me strange cuz I got in (in)
Handed him a lot of cash
Sat back and told him, "Just Drive" (drive)
I'm thinking bout the day
You packed your things and left
Saying you knew all about Channel
(Tiffany, Tracy, Stephenie)
You went away
So I'm writing in the fog up on the window
To express myself
And how I'm feeling

Y L E N O L
As I roll pass you in this taxi cab
If you care at all, that means I'm
lonely
Y L E N O L
As I roll pass you in this taxi cab
If you care at all, that means I'm
lonely

I see a woman walking with a her man (man)
Man with his woman smiling
As they stroll into this little bar (bar)
As they kiss each other holding hands
I get sick to my stomach
So jealous of how fucking happy they are
(Lucky Bastards)
There's a couple different people
I could call right now
But the one I wanting don't want me at all right now
And that hurts
Through my heart, my mind and my soul (soul)
Rolling in this cab, writing on the window
Singing

Y L E N O L (Y...Y)
As I roll pass you in this taxi cab
If you care at all, that means I'm (what it means is I'm...)
lonely (lonely)
Y L E N O L (hmmm...O L, O L)
As I roll pass you in this taxi cab (in this taxi cab)
If you care at all, that means I'm (if you care at all)
lonely (means I'm lonely)

What am I suppose to do now
Rolling round, feeling like a fool now
Crying a bitch in the back of this taxi cab
Driver tries to ask if I'm alright
I say
"Never mind, mind your business and just drive dammit"
You don't know nothing about
How I feel right now
Let me spell it out (Yyyy)

Y L E N O L (O L)
As I roll pass you in this taxi cab (pass you in this taxi cab)
If you care at all, that means I'm (if you care at all, that means I'm)
lonely (means I'm lonely, means I'm lonely baby)
Y L E N O L (O L)
As I roll pass you in this taxi cab (in this taxi cab)
If you care at all, that means I'm (you don't give a damn babe)
lonely (that means I'm lonely, means I'm lonely, ooo)

Y L E N O L (what it means baby)
As I roll pass you in this taxi cab (that I'm sorry that I did you wrong)
If you care at all, that means I'm (and I'm lonely without you)
lonely (i missed you baby)
Y L E N O L (woahh)
As I roll pass you in this taxi cab (taxi cab)
If you care at all, that means I'm (that means I'm lonely baby, lonely baby)
lonely (ooo)

4. WANTED BY YOU

Chorus:
All I want is to be wanted by you
May this love never end
Cuz I’m speechless every time u are around
I get the feeling that I can’t survive when u are not in my mind

Verse 1:
U can figure it out
Yes u can
Cuz every time I walk through the door
U know that I want to come back just 2 stay a minute more
When I talk on the phone with a homie
I keep smiling
But u know that I’m smiling at you
When I feel lonely
U know that u are the one 2 hold me
When my heart is broken
U always know how to mend it

Chorus:
All I want is to be wanted by u
May this love never end
Cuz I’m speechless every time u are around
I get the feeling that I can’t survive when u are not in my mind

Verse 2:
It’s funny cuz there can be lies everyday
But u choose not 2 go that way

And for that I thank you everyday
And I appreciate it more than words can say
Baby I know u get mad quite a few times
And u know that I know why
And there I come in and dry your eyes
And kiss u with a smile
We make up again
And u don’t go mad to bed
And neither do I
And it just feels like we are floating in the sky

Bridge:
And there is the whole world out there
But there is just one taking my breath away
My baby u
All I ever wanted was founding someone like u
And yes u
And all I ever want is 2 be wanted by u

Chorus:
May this love never end
Cuz I’m speechless every time u are around
I get the feeling that I can’t survive when u are not in my mind
Wanted by u
Uhh uhh
Wanted by u
Uu uuu
Uhh

6. LET ME GET THIS RIGHT


Now I don't wanna jump the gun
Or misunderstand anyone but
I think maybe you have been feeling something lately.
I know we got an understanding,
You ain't my girl, I ain't your man
But I think maybe you have been feeling this thing changing

The feelings I got for you
Cut and Dry it's the truth
But you want something new baby
We got a simple thing
But it's about to change
Or will it stay the same maybe

No matter what the road I've passed
Still has a load of loves and lusts
And not much trust
But are you saying this can't be us

Let me get this right
Girl you want us to be
Official make this thing for real
You for real?
Baby let me know
Let me get this right
You want to make me the happiest
Man in the world
Is that the deal?
Girl for real?
Baby please be sure
Let me get this right

I know I heard ya
But come again please
It's what I want, exactly what I need
Hard to believe that we're both on the same page
Threw away my black book
Think I'm done with that look

You took long enough to come into my life
Are you feeling what I feel girl?

The feelings I got for you
Cut and Dry it's the truth
But you want something new baby
We got a simple thing
But it's about to change
Or will it stay the same maybe

No matter what the road I've passed
Still has a load of loves and lust
And not much trust
But are you saying this can't be us

Let me get this right
Girl you want us to be
Official make this thing for real
You for real?
Baby let me know
Let me get this right
You want to make me the happiest
Man in the world

8. ALL I CAN BE IS ME

(ohhhh)

The car that I drive, may not impress
but I get where I need to go
You may disagree, with the way that I dress (oooh)
But I'm always comfortable
My fortune and fame,
Ain't no display, nobody has stick to myself
And to be perfectly honest,
I like it that way
So it doesn't matter what you say

I may not be who you want me to be
All I can be is me
I won't pretend,
so baby take it or leave
'Cause all I can be is me (all I can be, all I can be)
All I can be is me (all I can be, all I can be)
All I can be is me
What you get is what you see
'Cause all I can be is me

(ohhh, yeah, yeah)

Sometimes I prefer to just stay at home
Don't need that fancy restaurant
Sometimes I would rather turn the tv on,
simple is all I want
Why put on a mask?
why be all a vision?
There's never a reason
I'm happy with me,
My life's not in mission
I'm ok with who I'm bein'

Though I may not be who you want me to be
But all I can be is me
I won't pretend,
so baby take it or leave
'Cause all I can be is me (all I can be, all I can be)
All i can be is me (all I can be, all I can be)
Said all I can be is me
What you get is what you see
'Cause all I can be is me

(ooohh)

Money, cars, and diamond rings
All those expensive things
Baby I just don't give a damn
But if you really love me,
like you say you'd love me
then baby take me as I am

(heeeey)

Though I may not be who you want me to be.
But all I can be is me.
I won't pretend,
so baby take it or leave. (hey)
'Cause all I can be is me (all I can be, all I can be)
All I can be is me. (all I can be, all I can be)
Said all I can be is me.
What you get is what you see
'Cause all I can be is me.

9. CRAZY LOVE

[Verse 1]

We're a hurricane
So destructive in the way that we do
A little bit insane
But she loves it just the same
And me too

[Pre-Chorus]

They say love and insanity
Are somewhat related
The way that they make us act
But baby girl the love between you and me
Is truly the greatest
Though sometimes we hate it

[Chorus]

They can't tell me nothing about you
Cuz you're my
Crazy love
Can't tell me nothing about how we do
Cuz we got
Crazy love

[Verse 2]

I'm intelligent
I'm not stupid
Not at all
But my common sense
When it comes to you it falls
Then I do something dumb

[Pre-Chorus]

They say love and insanity
Are somewhat related
The way that they make us act
But baby girl the love between you and me
Is truly the greatest
Though sometimes we hate it

[Chorus]

They can't tell me nothing about you
Cuz you're my
Crazy love
Can't tell me nothing about how we do
Cuz we got
Crazy love

[Fabolous]

I walk into where you was at then my phone calls get a who is that
I told her that i worry that we won't last
She told me you need to worry when i don't ask
See that's the crazy love i be talking bout
Gary Coleman face girl what you talking bout
Make me wanna kick you and that yorkie out
Then i see that fat ass when you walking out
How I'm gonna tell my baby bye-bye
Outfit look crazy on her you my lady gaga
But you wanna start at first and get the last word
You wanna lock me down and get the password
Damn i wanna spray don't use juice
So in the bedroom i got a few screws loose
The head's coo-coo back-shots psycho
Hit it from the back hard hope you got Geico

[Chorus]

They can't tell me nothing about you
Cuz you're my
Crazy love
Can't tell me nothing about how we do
Cuz we got
Crazy love

10. BECAUSE OF YOU


[Songwriters: Tor Erik Hermansen;Mikkel Eriksen;Shaffer Smith]



Want to but I can't help it, I love the way you feel
Just got me stuck between my fantasy and what is real
I need it when I want it, I want it when I don't
Tell myself I'll stop every day knowing that I won't

I got a problem and I don't know what to do about it
Even if I did I don't know if I would quit but I doubt it
I'm taken by the thought of it

And I know this much is true
Baby you have become my addiction
I?m so strung out on you I can barely move
But I like it and it's all because of you

(All because of you)
And it's all because of you
(All because of you)
And it's all because of you
(All because of you)
And it's all because
Never get enough
She?s the sweetest drug

Think of it every second, I can get nothing done
Only concern is the next time I?m gon? get me some
Know I should stay away from ?cause it?s no good for me
I try and try but my obsession won?t let me leave

I got a problem and I don't know what to do about it
Even if I did I don't know if I would quit but I doubt it
I?m taken by the thought of it

And I know this much is true
Baby you have become my addiction
I?m so strung out on you I can barely move
But I like it and it's all because of you

(All because of you)
And it's all because of you
(All because of you)
And it's all because of you
(All because of you)
And it's all because
Never get enough
She?s the sweetest drug

Ain't no doubt, so strung out
Ain't no doubt, so strung out
Over you, over you, over you

Because of you
And it's all because of you
Never get enough
She?s the sweetest drug
She?s the sweetest drug

11. CLOSER


[Songwriters: Beite, Magnus; Eriksen, Mikkel Storleer; Hermansen, Tor; Smith, Shaffer; Stray, Bernt Rune;]



Closer, closer
Closer, closer

Turn the lights off in this place
And she shines just like a star
And I swear I know her face
I just don't know who you are

Turn the music up in here
I still hear her loud and clear
Like she's right there in my ear
Telling me that she wants to

Own me
To control me
Come closer
Come closer

And I just can't pull myself away
Under a spell I can't break
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
I just can't stop, I just can't stop

And I just can't bring myself away
But I don't want to escape
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
I just can't stop

I can feel her on my skin
I can taste her on my tongue
She's the sweetest taste I've seen
The more I get, the more I want

She wants to own me
Come closer
She says, "Come closer"
Hey!

And I just can't pull myself away
Under a spell I can't break
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
I just can't stop, I just can't stop

And I just can't bring myself away
But I don't want to escape
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
I just can't stop

Come closer, come closer
Come closer, come closer
Come closer, come closer
Come closer

I just can't stop, no
Said I just can't stop, no
Said I just can't stop, no
Said I just can't stop, no

And I just can't pull myself away
Under a spell I can't break
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
I just can't stop, I just can't stop

And I just can't bring myself away
But I don't want to escape
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
I just can't stop

And I just can't pull myself away
Under a spell I can't break
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
I just can't stop

Come closer

12. SO SICK


[Songwriters: Smith, Shaffer; Eriksen, Mikkel; Hermansen, Tor Erik;]

Mmm mmm, yeah
Doo doo, doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Oh yeah

Gotta change my answering machine
Now that I'm alone
'Cuz right now it says that we
Can't come to the phone

And I know it makes no sense
'Cuz you walked out the door
But it's the only way I hear your voice anymore

(It's ridiculous)
It's been months
And for some reason I just
(Can't get over us)
And I'm stronger than this, yeah

(Enough is enough)
No more walkin' round
With my head down
(Yeah)
I'm so over being blue
Cryin' over you

And I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing
You were still here

Said I'm so sick of love songs
So sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?

Gotta fix that calendar I have
That's marked July 15th
Because since there's no more you
There's no more anniversary

I'm so fed up with my thoughts of you
And your memory
And how every song reminds me
Of what used to be

That's the reason I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing
You were still here

Said I'm so sick of love songs
So sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?

(Leave me alone)
Leave me alone
(Stupid love songs)
Don't make me think about her smile
Or having my first child
I'm letting go
Turning off the radio

'Cuz I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing
She was still here

Said I'm so sick of love songs
So sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?
(Why can't I turn off the radio?)

Said I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing
She was still here

Said I'm so sick of love songs
So sad and slow
Why can't I turn off the radio?
(Why can't I turn off the radio?)

And I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishin'
You were still here

Said I'm so sick of love songs
So sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?
(Why can't I turn off the radio?)
Why can't I turn off the radio?

14. MAD

Songwriters: Eriksen, Mikkel; Hermansen, Tor; Smith, Shaffer;

Featuring: -

She's starin' at me
I'm sittin' wonderin' what she's thinkin'
Nobody's talkin' 'cause talkin' just turns into screamin'
And now it?s I'm yellin' over her, she yellin' over me
All that that means is neither of us is listening

And what's even worse?
That we don't even remember why we?re fighting
So both of us are mad for

Nothing, fighting for
Nothin', crying for
Nothing, whoa
But we won?t let it go for

Nothing, no not for
Nothing, this should be
Nothing to a love like what we got

Oh baby, I know sometimes it's gonna rain
But baby, can we make up now?
'Cause I can't sleep through the pain
Can't sleep through the pain

Girl, I don't wanna go to bed mad at you
And I don't want you to go to bed mad at me
No, I don't wanna go to bed mad at you
And I don't want you to go to bed mad at me
Oh no no no

And it gets me upset
Girl when you?re constantly accusing
Askin' questions like you already know
We're fighting this war
Baby when both of us are losing
This ain't the way that love is supposed to go

Whoa, what happened to workin' it out?
We've fall into this place
Where you ain't backin' down and I ain't backin' down
So what the hell do we do now?
It's all for

Nothing, fighting for
Nothing, crying for
Nothing, whoa
But we won?t let it go for

Nothing, no not for
Nothing, this should be
Nothing to a love like what we got

Oh baby, I know sometimes it's gonna rain
But baby, can we make up now?
'Cause I can't sleep through the pain
Can't sleep through the pain

Girl, I don't wanna go to bed mad at you
And I don't want you to go to bed mad at me
No, I don't wanna go to bed mad at you
And I don't want you to go to bed mad at me
Oh no no no

Oh, baby this love ain't gonna be perfect
Perfect, perfect, oh oh
And just how good it's gonna be
We can fuss and we can fight
Long as everything?s all right between us
Before we go to sleep
Baby, we're gonna be happy, oh

Baby, I know sometimes it's gonna rain
But baby, can we make up now?
'Cause I can't sleep through the pain
Can't sleep through the pain

Girl, I don't wanna go to bed mad at you
And I don't want you to go to bed mad at me
No, I don't wanna go to bed mad at you
And I don't want you to go to bed mad at me
Oh no no no

16. ONE IN A MILLION


Jetsetter
Gogetter
Nothing better.

Call me Mr. been there done that
Top model chick to your every day hood rat
Less than all but more than a few
But I've never met one like you

Been all over the world
Done a little bit of everything
Little bit of everywhere
With a little bit of everyone
All the girls I've been with
Things I've seen it takes much to impress
But sure enough your glow it makes your soul stand out from all the rest, baby.

I could be in love
But I just don't know (don't know, girl)
Baby one thing is for certain
Whatever you do is working
Other girls don't matter
In your presence can't do what you do
There's a million girls around but I don't see no one but you

Girl you're so one in a million
You are
Baby you're the best I ever had
Best I ever had
And I'm certain that
There ain't nothing better
No there ain't nothing better than this

You're not a regular girl
You don't give a damn about the loot
Talking about I can't do for you
But you can do for yourself
Even though that ain't so
Baby cause my dough don't know how to end
But that independent thing I'm with it
All we do is win baby

I could be in love
But I just don't know (don't know, girl)

Baby one thing is for certain
Whatever you do is working
Other girls don't matter
In your presence can't do what you do
There's a million girls around but I don't see no one but you

Baby you're so one in a million
You are
Baby you're the best I ever had
Best I ever had
And I'm certain that
There ain't nothing better
No there ain't nothing better than this
Girl you're so one in a million
You are
Baby you're the best I ever had
Best I ever had
And I'm certain that
There ain't nothing better
No there ain't nothing better than this

Diamond girl,
Only one in the world,
Just one of a kind,
She mine.

Ooh all that I can think about is what this thing could be
A future baby
Baby you're one of a kind
That means that you're the only one for me
Only one for me

Baby (girl) you're so one in a million
You are
Baby you're the best I ever had
Best I ever had
And I'm certain that
There ain't nothing better
No there ain't nothing better than this
Girl you're so one in a million
You are
Baby you're the best I ever had
Best I ever had
And I'm certain that
There ain't nothing better
No there ain't nothing better than this

TOTO: I WILL BE OVER YOU [14]

Toto is an American rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1977. The group currently consists of Joseph Williams (lead vocals), David Paich (keyboards), Steve Porcaro (keyboards), Steve Lukather (guitars, vocals), Mike Porcaro (bass), and Simon Phillips (drums). Toto is known for a musical style that combines elements of pop, rock, soul, funk, progressive rock, hard rock, R&B and jazz. They are regularly associated with the soft rock genre.

David Paich and Jeff Porcaro had played together as session musicians on several albums and decided to form a band. David Hungate, Steve Lukather, Steve Porcaro and Bobby Kimball were recruited before their first album release. The band enjoyed great commercial success in the late 1970s and 1980s, beginning with the band's self-titled debut released in 1978. With the release of the critically acclaimed and commercially successful Toto IV (1982), Toto became one of the best-selling music groups of their era. They are best known for the Top 5 hits "Hold the Line," "Rosanna," and "Africa". Although their popularity in the United States diminished in the 1990s and 2000s, they remained popular internationally, playing only a small number of shows in the USA. Several changes to the lineup have been made over the years. In 2008, Lukather announced his departure from the band, and the remaining band members later went their separate ways. In the summer of 2010, Toto reformed and went on a short European tour, with a new lineup, to benefit Mike Porcaro, who had been diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Another tour will take place in Summer 2011.

The band has released a total of 17 albums, and have sold over 35 million albums to date. The group was honored with several Grammy Awards and was inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame in 2009.

1. LOVERS IN THE NIGHT


It's just the soul that matters,
and I don't know why
You know she's gonna make you cry,
you know she's gonna make you cry
She'll have you walk beneath the ladder
you were meant to climb
You know she's gonna make you try,
you know she's gonna make you try

[Chorus:]
Ooh, you know we're lovers in the night
Ooh, you know we're lovers in the night

It's just the soul that matters,
and keeps her satisfied
You know she's gonna make you cry,
you know she's gonna make you cry
She'll have you wishin' that you had
her come your way to shine
You know she's gonna make you try,
OOh, you know she's gonna make you high

[Repeat chorus]

2. COULD THIS BE LOVE


There was a young girl
Ridin' on the wind
She had all of the answers
Didn't need to pretend
I remember - she was the only friend
I ever needed

Now I wonder
How to work it all out
My hands are tremblin'
I've got this feelin' now

There's a bit of thunder
Pounding in my heart
A little uncertainty
That's been there from the start
Don't tell me all the looks you gave
Were the ones that I misread
'Cause all I hear now
Is a voice inside my head

Could this be love
That I hear calling
Could this be love
That I hear calling

Got a fast education
Holding you in tears
Someone finally hurt you
After all these years
Got to get my message to you somehow

Now you're lookin' in my eyes for courage
Too late to think this through

Baby
There must be something we can do

There's a bit of thunder
Pounding in my heart
A little uncertainty
That's been there from the start
Don't tell me all the looks you gave
Were the ones that I misread
'Cause all I hear now
Is a voice inside my head

Could this be love
That I hear calling
Could this be love
That I hear calling

[Instrumental brake]

There's a bit of thunder
Pounding in my heart
A little uncertainty
That's been there from the start
Don't tell me all the looks you gave
Were the ones that I misread
'Cause all I hear now
Is a voice inside my head

3. LOVE HAS THE POWER

There is too much hatred, there is too much starvation, too much inhumanity

Some people get the kicks out of throwing bricks at me
No real reason, just jealousy
Angry words and bad attitudes is gonna get you nowhere

Watching you watching me, it's alright, cause love will make it right

[Chorus:]
Love has the power,
it's strong as a tower you can lean on
Love is a fire,
a burning desire, it's so warm

Some believe in the almighty dollar,
some don't believe in nothing at all
But there's a power that's within you,
it will never never ever let you down

I believe we have the key to liberty and unity, are you listening

[Repeat chorus]


One hundred million voices singing
(can you hear the voices singing)
No weak, no strong, no right, no wrong
Imagine (you gotta keep imagining)
Impossible the skeptics say,
Wait and see there's gonna come a day

[Repeat chorus]

Love has the power,
It's strong as a tower you can lean on
Love has the power,
It's strong as a tower you can lean on

There's no difference between black or white, the light of life
I can hear the children laughing
Men at war, stop your worries, give peace a chance, there's a new day dawning
Come together, come together, come together
(Wisdom is the mouth of peace, of innocence)


Could this be love
That I hear calling
Could this be love
That I hear calling

4. A MILLION MILES AWAY

I don't want to know the reason why you don't love me
I don't want to know the reason why you don't care
I don't want to know the reason why you're leavin' me
I'm not the only one that lost my love way down there - way down there

I don't want to hear the reason why you don't need me
I don't want to hear the reason why you don't stay
I don't want to hear the reason why you're seeing him
All I know is that I want you back, but you're

A million miles away and it's killin' me inside
There's a stranger in a carriage and he's takin' her out tonight
The devil's ridin' on a full moon and he sends his love

When I'm a million miles away

[Instrumental break]

I don't want to be the reason why you don't love me
And I don't want to be the reason why you don't care
I don't want to be the reason why you're leavin' me
I'm not the only one that lost my love

A million miles away and it's killin' me inside
There's a stranger in a carriage and he's takin' her out tonight
The devil's ridin' on a full moon and he sends his love
When I'm a million miles away

He sends his love and I'm a hundred million miles away


VIDEO



5. A SECRET LOVE


He never felt that she cared
Turning to leave
Feeling her lonely stare
If only a secret love

Left more than a broken heart
Like a fool thinks he felt the start
Of what he hoped for so long

He waits though he knows she's gone

Alone he climbs
Until he falls

Only a secret love brings more than a broken heart

Like a fool I have played the part
Of what I hoped for so long
The need to belong...
In love

VIDEO


6. MAD ABOUT YOU

There's something I must say
Something I must do
I planned it all this way
Designed it just for you
Do you wanna be with me
Be with me at all?
Do you have to be so cool
Your gentle touch manoeuvered me
But all the time I always knew

[Chorus:]
I'm really mad about you
There's nothing bad about our love
I'm giving you the only heart I have
But I'm afraid tonight it won't be enough

Can we go on this way?
There's nothing left to prove
It's not another game
Or another simple move
Do you believe in me
Believe in me at all?
Are you telling me the truth?

Or is it just imagination or the perfect dream
That I'm here with you

[Chorus]

[Instrumental break]

Do you wanna be with me
Be with me at all?
Do you have to be so cool
Your gentle touch manoeuvered me
But all the time I always knew

I'm really mad about you
There's nothing bad about our love
I'm giving you the only heart I have
But I'm afraid tonight it won't be enough

I'm really mad about you
There's nothing bad about our love
I never had a broken heart before
But I know you'll never tear
Tear mine apart

7. ENDLESS

You better wrap yourself around me
It's a miracle that you've found me
I can't fool myself any longer
We're both willing, young and able
Let's put our cards on the table
This feelin's gettin' stronger
I see the sunlit tears in your eyes again
Now I realize
Maybe it's the right time
Oh, maybe you're the right one
Ooh, and now I understand
You could've slipped through my hands
Well, I just can't wait anymore
There's a chance we can make it
We just gotta take it

[Chorus:]
Endless are the nights
I stay with you
Endless are the dreams
You made come true
Forever in my arms
You're the reason tonight our love is endless

We better get ourselves together
Before we hit bad weather
And we can't go any further
Won't you give me some affection
Point me in the right direction
This storm is blowin' harder
Here comes that voice deep inside again
And it says to me
That maybe it's the right thing
Oh, maybe you're the right one
Ooh, and now I understand
You could've slipped through my hands
Well, I just can't wait anymore
There's a chance we can make it
We just gotta take it

[Repeat chorus]

8. LAST LOVE

What would you say
If I asked you to stay with me forever
But forever's in too soon
The touch of your hand
And the look in your eyes
Are the only things I know
I know that are true

We only have this life
To forgive and then forget
But the only thing that matters
Is we have no regrets

[Chorus:]
There's nothing I wouldn't do for you
There's nothing I wouldn't give to you
I know that you know it's true
Oh can't you see
You're the last love for me

Time passes fast
And the hours go quickly
But the fire inside our hearts
It never dies
The sound of your voice
And the way that it moves me in a special way
I can't describe

Please take my hand
And we'll walk the endless road
No one has to lead us
'Cause we know which way to go

[Chorus]

And if I ever really hurt you
How sorry I would be
There's something I've been trying to tell you
Darling it's time you know
You'll always be a part of me

[Instrumental break]

Please take my hand
And we'll walk the endless road
No one has to lead us
'Cause we know which way to go

[Chorus]

I know that you know it's true
Oh can't you see
It's meant to be
You're the last love for me

9. HOLD THE LINE

It's not in the way that you hold me
It's not in the way you say you care
It's not in the way you've been treating my friends
It's not in the way that you'll stay till the end
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you do

Hold the line
Love isn't always on time

It's not in the words that you told me
It's not in the way you say you're mine
It's not in the way that you came back to me
It's not in the way that your love set me free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you do

Hold the line
Love isn't always on time


It's not in the words that you told me
It's not in the way you say you're mine
It's not in the way that you came back to me
It's not in the way that your love set me free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you do

Hold the line
Love isn't always on time

It's not in the way that you hold me
It's not in the way that you make me feel
You see
It's all about the way you do the things you do
The way you do it
You've got to hold it
Hold it

Hold the line
Love isn't always on time

11. AFRICA

[Songwriters: Paich, David; Porcaro, Jeff;]

I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in the 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation

I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say
"Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you!"

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti

I seek to cure what's deep inside
Frightened of this thing that I've become

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa,
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa,
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

12. I WILL BE OVER YOU


Some people live their dreams
Some people close their eyes
Some people's destiny
Passes by

There are no guarantees
There are no alibis
That's how our love must be
Don't ask why

[Bridge:]
It takes some time
God knows how long
I know that I can forget you

Chorus:
As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating
As soon as forever is through
I'll be over you

Remembering times gone by

Promises we once made
What are the reasons why
Nothing stays the same

[Bridge:]
There were the nights holding you close
Someday I'll try to forget them

(chorus)

adlib

as soon as my heart stops aching
anticipating
someday ill be over you
as soon as my heart stops aching
anticipating
someday ill be over you
as soon as my heart....
oooohhh....

13. IF YOU BELONG TO ME

I left you crying on that angry morning
You know I lied
I'll always run from anything that loves me
To my safe side

My world circles 'round a different sun
That's all burned away
I know that you're the only one
Now I'm walking down some distant street
And I know your touch is out of reach

Girl you belong to me I know
And it was wrong for me to ever let you go
Girl you belong to me I know

Everybody has a lonely moment
They can't explain
And everybody wants to feed their hunger

Without the pain

There's no shadows in my hiding place
I'm so locked away
Now I wish that I could see your face
I know I hurt you when you say we're through
I never really will get over you 'cause

Girl you belong to me I know
And it was wrong for me to ever let you go
Girl you belong to me I know

[Instrumental brake]

Girl you belong to me I know
And it was wrong for me to ever let you go
[Repeat with fade]

14. WE CAN MAKE IT TO NIGHT

'm counting on you
Gotta know
The time has come to follow through
Drive straight through the night
Just hold on
We can make it home before daylight

There's a voice inside you
And you know it can't be wrong
So break away from this pain, girl
We've held out much too long

We can make it tonight
If you give me the sign
And I'll be by your side
I've got the feeling it's right
We can make it in time
We can make it tonight

Fear nothing at all
Ya gotta know that nothing is impossible
The things I've seen with these eyes
Precious dreams
That somehow you don't realize

Well there's a thirst inside you

I know I can't be wrong
So let's get out of the storm girl
We've waited much too long

We can make it tonight
If you give me the sign
And I'll be by your side
I've got the feeling it's right
We can make it in time
We can make it tonight

[Instrumental brake]

Oh, we can make it tonight
If you give me a sign
And I'll be by your side
I've got the feeling it's right
We can make it in time
We can make it tonight

We can make it tonight
If you give me a sign
And I'll be by your side
I've got the feeling it's right
We're gonna make it right on time
We can make it tonight

Barry Manilow (born June 17, 1943 is an American singer-songwriter, musician, arranger, producer, conductor, and performer, best known for such recordings as "Could It Be Magic", "Mandy", "Can't Smile Without You", and "Copacabana (At the Copa)."

In 1978, five of his albums were on the best-selling charts simultaneously, a feat equalled only by Frank Sinatra, Michael Jackson, Bruce Springsteen and Johnny Mathis. He has recorded a string of Billboard hit singles and multi-platinum albums that have resulted in his being named Radio & Records number one Adult Contemporary artist and winning three straight American Music Awards for Favorite Pop/Rock Male Artist. Between 1974 - 1979 Manilow had 10 number 1 singles, five of which were consecutive. Several well-known entertainers have given Manilow their "stamp of approval," including Sinatra, who was quoted in the 1970s regarding Manilow, "He's next." In 1988, Bob Dylan stopped Manilow at a party, hugged him and said, "Don't stop what you're doing, man. We're all inspired by you.

As well as producing and arranging albums for other artists, such as Bette Midler and Dionne Warwick, Manilow has written songs for musicals, films, and commercials. From February 2005 to December 30, 2009, he was the headliner at the Las Vegas Hilton, performing hundreds of shows before ending his relationship with the hotel.

1. ALL I HAVE TO DO IS DREAM

Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream
When I want you in my arms
When I want you and all your charms
Whenever I want you all I have to do is dream
Dream, dream, dream

When I feel blue in the night
And I need you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you all I have to do is dream

I can make you mine
Taste your lips of wine
Any time, night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I’m dreaming my life away

I need you so, that I could die

I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you all I have to do is dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream

I can make you mine
Taste your lips of wine
Any time, night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I’m dreaming my life away

I need you so, that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you all I have to do is dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream

2. OLD SONGS


[Songwriters: Pomeranz, David; Kaye, Buddy;]

Candles burnin', glasses are chilled
And soon she'll be by
Hope and pray she'll say
That she's willin' to give us another try

And if all those plans I've made
Don't melt the lady's heart
I'll put on the old 45's

And maybe the old songs will bring back the old times
Maybe the old lines will sound new
Maybe she'll lay her head on my shoulder
Maybe old feelings will come through

Maybe we'll start to cry and wonder why
We ever walked away
Maybe the old songs will bring back the old times
And make her want to stay

It's been too long since I've
Seen her face light up when I come home

It's been too many hours
I've wasted starin' at the phone

Sweet old songs
I'm countin' on you
To bring her back to me
I'm tired of listenin' alone

Maybe the old songs will bring back the old times
Maybe the old lines will sound new
Maybe she'll lay her head on my shoulder
Maybe old feelings will come through

Or maybe we'll start to cry and wonder why
We ever walked away
Maybe the old songs will bring back the old times
And make her want to stay, want to stay

Maybe we'll start to cry and wonder why
We ever walked away
Maybe the old songs will bring back the old times
And make her want to stay

Old songs, bring back the old times

3. MOMENTS TO REMEMBER


[Songwriters: Stillman, Al; Allen, Robert;]

January to December
We?ll have moments to remember

The New Year?s Eve we did the town
The day we tore the goal post down
We will have these moments to remember

The quiet walks, the noisy fun
The ballroom prize we almost won
We will have these moments to remember

Though summer turns to winter
And the present disappears
The laughter we were glad to share

Will echo through the years

When other nights and other days
May find us gone our separate ways
We will have these moments to remember

The laughter we were glad to share
Will echo through the years

When other nights and other days
May find us gone our separate ways
We will have these moments to remember
We will have these moments to remember

January to December
We'll have moments to remember

4. A GIFT OF LOVE

Here in this silent night
Now all the world is right
As if we've sundenley been giving
A gift of love
A gift of love

Warm as the fire glow
Soft as the falling snow
A precious miracles we live in
This wonder of a gift of love


Night falls
At this coldest time of the year
Love calls
At this summer it's here

Here where I love you so
Now as our blessings grow
We shear the greatest gift we'll ever know
A gift of love

A gift of love

5. LOOKS LIKE WE MADE IT


There you are
Lookin' just the same as you did,
last time I touched you
And here I am
close to gettin tangled up
inside the thought of you

Do you love him
as much as I love her?
And will that love be strong
when old feelings start to stir?

(chorus)
Looks like we made it
Left each other on the way
to another love
Looks like we made it
Or I thought so till today
until you were there everywhere
And all I could taste was love
the way we made it

Love's so strange
Playin hide and seek with hearts
and always hurtin'
And were the fools
standing close enough to touch
those burning memories

And if I hold you
for the sake of all those times
Love made us lose our minds
Could I ever let you go?

Oh no, we made it
Left each other on the way
to another love
Looks like we made it
Or I thought so till today
until you were there everywhere
And all I could taste was love
the way we made it

Ahh, we made it

(Chorus)

Looks like we made it
Lord knows we made it

6. NEVER GOING TO LET YOU GET AWAY

All my life I've had this dream
Someone like you would come along
Thru the darkness and the fears
You would be there and I was strong
And now you're here
And now I'm home
And now I'm
Never gonna let you get away
We'll be fine
See how dreams can come true
I'm never gonna let you get away
Not this time
I won't stop loving you
No I'm never gonna let you get away
Now that you're here

Everyone can say they know
How bad the loneliness can be
Some say they've been thru it all
Oh but they're wrong
No one could know
I know the years
I know the tears
I know I'm
Never gonna let you get away
We'll be fine
See how dreams can come true
I'm never gonna let you get away
Not this time
I won't stop loving you
No I'm never gonna let you get away
Now that you're here

7. WHEN I NEED YOU


When I need you
I just close my eyes and I'm with you
And all that I so want to give you
It's only a heartbeat away

When I need love
I hold out my hands and I touch love
I never knew there was so much love
Keeping me warm night and day

Miles and miles of empty space in between us
A telephone can't take the place of your smile
But you know I won't be travelling forever
It's cold out, but hold out and do like I do

When I need you
I just close my eyes and I'm with you
And all that I so want to give you
It's only a heart beat away

It's not easy when the road is your driver

Honey, that's a heavy load that we bear
But you know I won't be travelling a lifetime
It's cold out but hold out and do like I do
Oh I need you

When I need love
I hold out my hands and I touch love
I never knew there was so much love
Keeping me warm night and day

When I need you
I just close my eyes
And you're right here by my side
Keeping me warm night and day
I just hold out my hands, I just hold out my hands
And I'm with you
And all that I want to give you
It's only a heartbeat away
When I need you

8. JUST REMEMBER I LOVE YOU

When it all goes crazy and the thrill is gone
The days get rainy and the nights get long
When you get that feelin' you were born to lose
Starin' at your ceilin', thinkin' of your blues

When there's so much trouble that you want to cry
The world has crumbled and you don't know why
When your hopes are fading and they can't be found
Dreams have left you waiting, friends have let you down

Just remember I love you and it'll be alright
Just remember I love you more than I can say
Just remember I love you and it'll be alright
Maybe then your blues will fade away


When you need a lover and you're down so low
You start to wonder but you never know
When it feels like sorrow is your only friend
Knowin' that tomorrow you'll feel this way again

When the blues come callin' at the break of dawn
The rain keeps fallin' but the rainbow's gone
When you feel like cryin' but the tears won't come
Then your dreams are dyin', then you're on the run

Just remember I love you and it'll be alright
Just remember I love you more than I can say
Just remember I love you and it'll be alright

9. LOVE IS MANY A SPLENDOURED THING


[Songwriters: Fain, Sammy; Webster, Paul Francis;]

Love is a many splendored thing
It's the April rose that only grows in the early spring
Love is nature's way of giving a reason to be living
The golden crown that makes a man a king

Once on a high and windy hill
In the morning mist two lovers kissed and the world stood still

Then your fingers touched my silent heart and taught it how to sing
Yes, true love's a many splendored thing

Oh once on a high and windy hill
In the morning mist two lovers kissed and the world stood still
Then your fingers touched my silent heart and taught it how to sing
Yes, true love's a many splendored thing

10. NEVER MY LOVE

[Songwriters: Addrisi, Richard P. (Dick; Addrisi, Donald J.;]

You ask me if there'll come a time
When I grow tired of you

Never my love
Never my love

You wonder if this heart of mine
Will lose it's desire for you

Never my love
Never my love

What makes you think love will end
When you know that my whole life depends on you?


You say you fear I'll change my mind
I won't require you

Never my love
Never my love

How can you think love will end
When I've asked you to spend your whole life with me?

You say you fear I'll change my mind
I won't require you

Never my love
Never my love

11. NOW AND FOR EVER

One perfect moment, just one humble stone
But oh, what a stone can do
It means that I have one love forever
And one love alone
A now and forever with you

Now and forever, as sure as the snow
As long as the ocean roars
I’ll love you in a way that I’ll never begin to outgrow
I’ll now and forever be yours

From this blessed day, all this whole life through
Starting when we say ‘I do’
Forever and ever and ever

Now and forever, just one humble stone


But oh, what a stone can do
It means that I have one love forever
And one love alone
A now and forever with you

From this blessed day, all this whole life through
Starting when we say ‘I do’
Forever and ever and ever

Now and forever, as sure as the snow
As long as the ocean’s blue
I’ll love you in a way that I’ll never begin to outgrow
I’ll now and forever and ever and ever
And ever and ever and ever
Now and forever

12. CAN'T HELP FALLING IN LOVE

Wise men say only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you

Shall I stay, would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes, some things were meant to be

Take my hand, take my whole life too

For I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes, some things were meant to be

Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you

13. SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY

gonna take a sentimental journey
gonna to set my heart at ease
gonna take a sentimental journey
to renew old memories
got my bag
I got my reservation
spend each dime I could afford
like a child in wild anticipation
long to hear that all aboard
seven, that's the time we leave at seven

I'll be waiting up for heaven
counting every mile of railroad track
that takes me back
never thought my heart could be so yearning
why did I decide to roam
gonna take a sentimental journey
sentimental journey home

13. REMINISCING

[Songwriters: Goble, Graham George;]

Friday night it was late I was walkin' you home
We got down to the gate and I was dreamin' of the night
Would it turn out right?
How to tell you girl?
I want to build my world around you
Tell you that it's true
I wanna make you understand, I'm talkin' about a life time plan

That's the way it began, we were hand in hand
Glen Miller's band was better than before
We yelled and screamed for more
And the porter too
Made us dance across the room
It ended it all too soon
And on the way back home I promised you, never be alone

Hurry don't be late, I can hardly wait
I said to myself when we're old
We'll go dancin' in the dark
Walkin' through the park and reminiscin'



Friday night it was late, I was walkin' you home
We got down to the gate and I was dreamin' of the night
Would it turn out right?
Now as the years roll on
Each time we hear our favorite song
The memories come along
Older times we're missin', spending the hours reminiscin'

Hurry don't be late, I can hardly wait
I said to myself when we're old
We'll go dancin' in the dark
Walkin' through the park and reminiscin'
We'll go dancin' in the dark
Walkin' through the park and reminiscin'
You should be dancin', dancin', dancin', dancin'
And reminiscin'

We're gonna go walkin' through the park
We're gonna have hopin' in the dark and reminiscin'
Ooo yes, we will

14. I JUST WANT TO BE THE ONE IN YOUR LIFE


[Songwriters: Walsh, Dan; Price, Michael;]

Some people shoot for the stars
Dream upon dream
They long to go far

Chasing their rainbow so high
Wish upon wish
They'll reach for the sky

But I got one little dream
And baby, that's all I want
Girl it's up to you
You can make my dreams come true

I just wanna be the one in your life
For ever, for always
I just wanna be the one in your life
For ever, for always

I don't need cheers from the crowd
To make me feel big
To make me feel proud

Darlin' just a little touch of your hand
Is all that I need
To feel like a man

And I keep hoping each day
I won't dream my life away
Girl, you hold the key
To make my dream a reality

I just wanna be the one in your life
For ever, for always
I just wanna be the one in your life
For ever, for always

I just wanna be the one in your life
For ever, for always
I just wanna be the one in your life
For ever, for always

15. THE TWO OF US


[Songwriters: Manilow, Barry; Panzer, Marty;]

Now, we're happy to sit, day after day
The two of us
Wasting away, making believe
There's a reason to stay together

Now, we're happy to sit, night after night
The two of us
Convinced that it's right, hiding the yawns
Somehow getting along together


Afraid we'd always be alone
We made a home that we could always share
Just to know that someone would be there
Even if we never learned to care

And now, it's almost enough, year after year
The two of us
Nothing to fear, nothing at all
But the rest of our lives together

VIDEO


16.

Last night I waved goodbye
Now it seems years
I'm back in the city
Where nothing is clear
But thoughts of me holding you
Bringing us near
And tell me
When will our eyes meet?
When can I touch you?
When will this strong yearning end?
And when will I hold you again?

Time in New England
Took me away
To long, rocky beaches
And you by the bay
We started a story
Whose end must now wait
And tell me

When will our eyes meet?
When can I touch you?
When will this strong yearning end?
And when will I hold you again?

I feel the change coming
I feel the wind blow
I feel brave and daring
I feel my blood flow

With you, I could bring out
All the love that I have
With you, there's a heaven
So earth ain't so bad
And tell me

When will our eyes meet?
When can I touch you?
When will this strong yearning end?
And when will I hold you . . . . again?

Call me

You were lonely

You came straight to me

I gave you sympathy



Tried to tell myself

I was more than just stuck on you

When I finally pulled you through

I'd have what you were looking for



Now I tried to think

Of what I said

And what I have or haven`t done

I know when you needed me

I was there

I was there



So oh call me

Oh Oh Oh call me

Now you know if you need me

2. JUST WHEN I NEEDED YOU MOST

You packed in the morning and I
Stared out the window and I
Struggled for something to say
You left in the rain
Without closing the door
I didn't stand in your way

But I miss you more than I
Missed you before and now
Where I'll find comfort, God knows
'Cause you left me
Just when I needed you most

(Left me, just when I needed you most)

Now most every morning I
Stare out the window and I
Think about where you might be
I've written you letters
That I'd like to send
If you would just send one to me

'Cause I need you more than I
Needed before and now
Where I'll find comfort, God knows
'Cause you left me
Just when I needed you most

(Left me, just when I needed you most)

[Instrumental Interlude]

You packed in the morning I
Stared out the window and I
Struggled for something to say
You left in the rain
Without closing the door
I didn't stand in your way

Now I love you more than I
Loved you before and now
Where I'll find comfort, God knows
'Cause you left me
Just when I needed you most
Oh, yeah
You left me
Just when I needed you most

You left me
Just when I needed you most

3. SUZY


SUZI

[VERSE 1]
Well she never sees it comin'
She never sees it goin'
She lacks a certain point of view
But something always pulls her through
What she tries

[VERSE 2]

It's a weapon deep inside
No mortal could have contrived
Suzi's found a weapon
And I don't even think she tried

Well you dress her up with passion
She wears you like a fashion
That changes with the style of clothes
But passion sticks inside your throat
Like a knife

You thought you'd found the perfect rose
You cut the stem but it still grows
Suzi's found a weapon
And I don't even think she knows

[CHORUS]
So if she catches your eye
God help you
You'll have to run and die
Not to love her

Suzi found a weapon
And I don't even think she knows

[BRIDGE]

[Repeat VERSE 1]

[Repeat VERSE 2]

[Repeat CHORUS]

Yeah Suzi found a weapon
And I don't even think she tried
Yeah Suzi found a weapon
And I don't even think she tried
Hmmm, Suzi found a weapon
And I don't even think she tried

DAN HILL: YOU MAKE ME WANT TO BE [15]

Hill was born in Toronto, the son of social scientist and public servant Daniel G. Hill, and brother of the author Lawrence Hill. He studied guitar in his teens, leaving high school at 17 to work as songwriter for RCA. At one point he was working for the Ontario provincial government, delivering office supplies, while performing at the Riverboat at night. In 1975, he released his first album, Dan Hill, which produced a Canadian hit single, "You Make Me Want to Be".

In 1977 Hill recorded the ballad "Sometimes When We Touch". He also wrote the lyrics and was assisted in the music by Barry Mann for the album from the same year, Longer Fuse, and it was released as a single. It was Hill's biggest hit, peaking at #3 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and leading to Hill's appearances on The Merv Griffin Show and The Mike Douglas Show. Tina Turner covered the song in 1978 on her album Rough.

Another one of his hit songs was "It's a Long Road", which he recorded for the 1982 action movie First Blood. In 1985, he was one of the many Canadian performers to appear on the benefit single "Tears Are Not Enough" by Northern Lights. Although he had many hits in his native Canada, further singles did not fare as well in the United States, where, after "Let the Song Last Forever" in late 1978, he went almost a decade without cracking any of Billboard's singles charts.

In 1987, Hill returned to the Billboard Hot 100 with the Top 40 hit "Can't We Try", a duet with the then-unknown Vonda Shepard (her last name was incorrectly spelled "Sheppard" on the label). It peaked at #6 on the Hot 100. He also had a near Top 40 hit with "Never Thought (That I Could Love)". Both records reached #2 on the Adult Contemporary chart and set the stage for Hill to have three more top 10 U.S. AC hits through 1991's "I Fall All Over Again," though he did not make the Hot 100 again after "Never Thought (That I Could Love)."

A road trip to a Hill concert was the subject of the 1994 Canadian comedy film, South of Wawa.

In 2007 he toured with the CBC Radio program The Vinyl Cafe.

He had two major hits with his songs, "Sometimes When We Touch" and "Can't We Try," a duet with Vonda Shepa

1. SOMETIMES WHEN WE TOUCH


[Songwriters: Barry Mann; Dan ]



You ask me if I love you and I choke on my reply
I'd rather hurt you honestly than mislead you with a lie
And who am I to judge you on what you say or do
I'm only just beginnin' to see the real you

And sometimes when we touch, the honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till I die, till we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

Romance and all its strategy leaves me battlin' with my pride
But through the insecurity some tenderness survives
I'm just another writer, still trapped within my truth
A hesitant prize fighter, still trapped within my youth

And sometimes when we touch, the honesty's too much

And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till I die, till we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

At times I'd like to break you and drive you to your knees
At times I'd like to break through and hold you endlessly

At times I understand you and I know how hard you've tried
And I've watch while love commands you and I've watched love pass you by
At times I think we're drifters, still searchin' for a friend
A brother or a sister but then the passion flares again

And sometimes when we touch, the honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till I die, till we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides


video




2. HOLD ME


If I could make sweet love to you all through the night
All the problems of my world would slowly fade away
How can I be sure that everything you say
Isn’t just another line designed to steal my heart away

Just let me hold you now, I wanna feel you in my arms
Let me unfold you now, endlessly
Just let me hold you now, friend to friend, lover to lover
Hold me now

I feel your touch and it stirs me deep inside
Still I need to know there’s more than passion in your eyes
Oh girl, you are much more than something physical, can’t you see
You don’t have to stay the night, baby, tell me what you want from me

Oh, just let me hold you now, I wanna feel you in my arms
Let me unfold you now, endlessly
Just let me hold you now, friend to friend, lover to lover
Hold me now

If we make love, I wanna lose myself to you
Oh, rise to high above, I don’t wanna be alone tonight
No, I just want you to

Hold me now, I wanna feel you in my arms
Let me unfold you now, baby hold me forever
Just hold me now, never let me go
Let me unfold you now, endlessly
Just let me hold you now, friend to friend, lover to lover
Hold me, don’t ever let me go
Hold me now

3. I MISS YOU STILL



Do you remember when
The world seemed oh so young
We were so self-assured
No-one could ever come between us

Remember stepping out
Behind the high school, cutting class
Making love beneath the stars
You were my Venus

Where does all the time go, look at us now
Caught up in our different worlds
Though we’ve gone our separate ways I’ve found

I miss you still
It’s the middle of the night and I call on you
Cos I can’t hold back what I feel inside
I miss you still
You’re a piece of my heart that I can’t let go
Though it tears me apart, you should know
That I miss you still

Do you remember when
You said I’d always be your man
How you’d reach out for my hand
Your fingers trembling

How your Daddy hated me
How we drove him to distraction
That was part of the attraction
Way back when, girl

Where did the years go, it seems like yesterday

Oh God, this world seems different now
Baby some things, some things never change

I miss you still
It’s the middle of the night and I call on you
Cos I can’t hold back what I feel inside
I miss you still
Cos you’re a piece of my heart that I can’t let go
Though it tears me apart, you should know
That I miss you still

Baby, I’m a sentimental fool
Who’s out of control
I just close my eyes
Never reaching you, get into my soul

I miss you still
It’s the middle of the night and I call on you
Cos I can’t hold back what I feel inside
I miss you still
You’re a piece of my heart that I can’t let go
Though it tears me apart, you should know
That I miss you still
After all these years
I’m singing through these tears
If memories could kill
You know I miss you, I miss you still

video



4. YOU ARE WHERE I BELONG


Didn’t mean to make you cry
I can say such stupid things sometimes
Right or wrong, you are where I belong

When last night you said goodbye
I felt something deep inside me die, oh
Right or wrong, you are where I belong

This world can be so lonely
When you’re not near
You are the only reason
Girl, that I’m still here, oh

Love can hurt so bad, they say
Wouldn’t have it any other way, oh

Right or wrong, you are where I belong

Right or wrong, you are where I belong

This world can be so lonely
Girl, when you’re not near, oh
You are the only reason
The only reason I’m still here, oh

Didn’t mean to make you cry
Let me see those sad eyes shining
Right or wrong, you are where I belong
Oh that’s forever
Right or wrong, you are where I belong

5. MEMORIES


Memories of when I was a little boy, four years old,
Waiting for my daddy to come home,
And now I look into the eyes of my own son,
Wondering what he's thinking of,
Waiting at the window when I come home.

Watch his eyes fill up with joy and wonder.
He reaches out his tiny hand;
I feel the bond 'tween boy and man.
Memories of my mom cryin',
my daddy gone for weeks at a time,
Not knowing how to comfort her,
Facin' my pillow, pretendin' not to hear.

Now I write this letter to my little boy.
I'm far away, not knowing really what to say
Except, "I'm sorry, oh so sorry."
I don't want to make these same
Mistakes my daddy made with me.

Still his voice rolls off my tongue
When I say, "Boy, protect your mom."
Memories of my wife cryin' on the phone
Wonderin' when I'm coming home.

My voice sounds detached and cold,
Reminds me of someone that I knew;
He had a funny attitude
When I needed him to be
All the things only a daddy could be to me.
And I don't want to make the same
Mistakes my daddy made with me.
Still his voice rolls off my tongue
When I say, "Not now, I'm busy son."
Memories of lying in bed with my wife and son,
Overwhelmed by so much love,
Tryin' to explain how a man can cry
Yet still be happy,
Thinking of all the dumb mistakes I've made.
Now I understand my father's pain;
He did the best with what he knew.
I love you daddy.
I watched my son fall asleep
And wonder what he'll think of me
When years from now he sees his son
Reachin' out his tiny hands for love.

6. I WANNA MAKE LOVE TO YOU

I see you when you think no one sees.
I feel you (so close) every time you breathe.
I need you more than I needed anyone, it's true.
I wanna make love to you.
Walking down some crowded street,
Your laughter (so pure) sounds like a symphony.
Desire sweeps through me tryin' to stay cool, it's true.
I wanna make love to you. Wanna make love to you.
And it feels like we've waited so long
Just to see what we really feel.
Girl, with you by my side,
My world comes alive.
You whisper (so soft) something I can't repeat.
Your skin brushes close, touches mine so innocently.
The sun burns hot, need some relief, it's true.
I wanna make love to you (you're so close).
Wanna make love to you (wanna be a part of you).
And it feels like I've waited a lifetime

Just to tell you what's on my mind.
It's so hard to reveal
All the passion I feel.
I wanna make love to you.
(I just wanna make love, oh.)
Wanna make love to you.
(I just wanna make love to you.)
Wanna make love to you.
( I just wanna make love.)
(Let me hold you till you're a part of me.)
I wanna make love to you.
(I just wanna make love.)
(till you're in ecstasy)
Wanna make love to you.
(I just wanna make love to you.)
(You're eyes are so soft and sweet.)
Wanna make love to you.
( I just wanna make love.)
(Let me hold you till you're a part of me.)
I wanna make love to you.
(I just wanna make love.)
Wanna make love to you.
(I just wanna make love to you.)
Wanna make love to you.
( I just wanna make love.)

7. HEALING POWER OF LOVE

Do you believe in the healing power of love, or is it just a fantasy
Do you believe in the power from above, I feel it between you and me
And I don’t have to look in your eyes to know
There’s something going on here that’s out of our control
This is happening too fast for us to fight

There’s a healing power deep in all of us
In the darkest hour we can still rise up
There’s a new horizon between you and me
When you slip your hand in mine I feel the rush
Of the healing power of love

And we got nothing but love to pull us through, love and compassion
But in this desperation world nothing else will do, we can make it happen
And you don’t have to say a word, I understand
When you lay down your love lasts forever
You will always be my woman and I will be your man

There’s a healing power deep in all of us

In the darkest hour we can still rise up
There’s a new horizon between you and me
When you slip your hand in mine I feel the rush
Of the healing power of love

Deep in the night, when we’re so alone,
I swear I feel the power that’s greater than our own
And how a love unfolds
As we tumble through the darkness to the great unknown

There’s a healing power deep in all of us
In the darkest hour we can still rise up
There’s a new horizon between you and me
When you slip your hand in mine, I feel the rush
Of the healing power of love

There’s a healing power it’s so deep in us
In the darkest hour there’s a healing power of love
There’s a healing power, I can feel it now
In the darkest hour we can still rise up
There’s a healing power deep in all of us

8. I FALL ALL OVER AGAIN

I can’t believe we met like this, is it just coincidence
I had a feeling I’d be seeing you again
You’re every bit as beautiful as the last time we met
When you told me you were leaving and going back to him
How I wish that I could tell you it’s all in the past
But I was never good at lying and baby, since you asked

I don’t wanna hear that song again from the night we first met
I don’t wanna hear you whispering things I’d rather forget
I don’t wanna look into your eyes, cos you know what happens next
We’ll be making love and then I fall all over again

I can’t begin to tell you just how sorry I am
That the man you built your dreams around just broke your heart again
I think I know the feeling cos I once loved you so much
That I swore I’d rather die than live a day without your touch
If I held you in my arms you know I’d never let you go
But this ain’t the time or place to get emotional

I don’t wanna hear that song again from the night we first met
I don’t wanna hear you whispering things I’d rather forget
I don’t wanna look into your eyes cos you know what happens next
We’ll be making love and then I’d fall all over again

You were crying when you kissed me
Then you walked out that door
Oh, you were always such a mystery
I still dream we’re making love
Than I stop myself because

I don’t wanna hear that song again, from the night we first met
I don’t wanna hear you whispering, things I’d rather forget
I don’t wanna look into your eyes cos you know what happens next
We’ll be making love and then I fall all over again
I fall all over again

9. WHY DO WE ALWAYS HURT THE ONE WE LOVE



Here we go again, hurting each other for no reason
Wondering why we keep repeating the same mistakes
Seems the more we give, the more we’re disillusioned
Baby, what is it we’re doing, are we so scared of give and take, oh

Why do we always hurt the ones we love, why
Just when it seems we finally made the breakthrough
Why can’t we fly between the eagle and the dove
Why do we always hurt the ones we love

Sometimes it seems like the silences between us
Cut deeper than the meanest words, feel colder than the night
Every time I feel as though I’m finally gonna leave
It seems as though I just can’t breathe, girl, without you in my life, oh

Why do we always hurt the ones we love, why

Just when it seems we finally made the breakthrough
Why can’t we fly between the eagle and the dove
Why do we always hurt the ones we love

When you cry I feel as though the tears are falling
From my eyes, why do we do this to each other
There’s so much we should be proud of
So many dreams that we have shared
I’d hate to think that we’re right there without you standing here

Tell me why do we always hurt the ones we love, why
When we finally made the breakthrough
Why can’t we fly between the eagle and the dove
Why do we always hurt the ones we love, oh
Why can’t we fly between the eagle and the dove
Why do we always hurt the ones we love, why

10. IN YOUR EYES


And I think I finally know you
I can see beyond your smile
I think that I can show you
That what we have is still worthwhile
Don’t you know that love’s just like a thread
That keeps unraveling but then
It ties us back together in the end

In your eyes
I can see my dreams reflections in your eyes
I found the answers to my questions in your eyes
I can see the reason why our love’s alive in your eyes
We’re drifting safely back to shore
And I think I’ve finally learned to love you more

And you warned me that life changes
And that no-one really knows
Whether time will make us strangers

Or whether time will make us grow
Oh, even though the winds of time will change
In a world where nothing stays the same
Oh, through it all our love will still remain

Oh, in your eyes
I can see my dreams reflections in your eyes
I found the answers to my questions in your eyes
I can see the reason why our love’s alive in your eyes
We’re drifting safely back to shore
And I think I’ve finally learned to love you more

Oh, in your eyes
I can see the reason why our love’s alive, you and I
We’re drifting safely back to shore
And I think I’ve finally learned to love you more

11. NEVER THOUGHT

Can I touch you?
I can't believe that you are real
How did I ever find you?
You are the dream that saved my life
You are the reason I survived
Baby...
I never thought that I could love
someone as much as I love you
I know it's crazy but it's true
I never thought that I could need
someone as much as I need you
I Love You...
Can I hold you?

Girl your smile lights up the sky
You are too beautiful for the human eye
You are the dream that never dies
you are the fire that burns inside

Baby...
I never thought that I could love
someone as much as I love you
I know it's crazy but it's true
I never thought that I could need
someone as much as I need you
I Love You...
You are the sunshine in the sky
You are the sparkle in my eyes
I never thought that I could love
someone as much as I need you
I know it's crazy but it's true
I never thought that I could need
someone as much as I need you
I LOVE YOU.

12. I DREAM I SAW YOUR FACE LAST NIGHT

As I gaze into the sky
There’s a shooting star that’s falling
As it dwindles into floating dust
My name I hear it calling
Oh God I’d love to be free
But there’s something wrong, you see
I can’t make it
Just with me
I’m lonely...

Well I dreamt I saw your face last night
Just an image in the long
While falling through space I felt
Just you and me
And god
I just don’t know if I can believe in you
The dreamer deep inside me
Surely wants me to
If only dreams come true

At times I get this feeling
That there’s more to my life then greets my eyes
Just a crazy kind of feeling
Then I take a look around
This world’s falling down
Only a clown could believe ...believe

Well everyone’s had hopes I guess
On how the world should be
Everyone’s had dreams that just elude reality

Oh and God your name’s been used
For politics for power
God your name’s been used
For all the love that towers
But has yet to fall - upon us all
Well I dreamt I saw your face last night...

13. YOU MAKE ME WANT TO BE


You make me want to be a father
Trade my wandering path of freedom
For your soul
Oh and all I once defied
And locked so deep inside
Is on a roller coaster riding out of control

You make me want to be a teacher
Teach that love is all there is
And still there’s more
Oh and everywhere I turn
And everything I learn
Shows me there’s something new
I’ve never seen before

Words can only take a thought so far
And I’ve almost gone as far as I can go
To see each other as we really are
Exploring all around us
As we grow
And we grow
And we grow

You make me want to be a writer
Write this world a crazy love song
For today
Let me glide upon your smile
It beams for miles and miles
Catch it now before it sails away
Oh and words can only take a thought so far
And I guess I’ve gone as far as I can go
To see each other as we really are
Exploring all around us
As we grow
And we grow
And we grow

15. EVERY TIME WE SAY GOODBYE




Ev’ry time we say goodbye I die a little
Ev’ry time we say goodbye I wonder why a little
Why the gods above me who must be in the know
Think so little of me they allow you to go

When you’re near there’s such an air of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere waiting to sing about it
There’s no love song finer
But how strange the change from major to minor
Ev’ry time we say goodbye

16. IT'S A LONG ROAD


It's A Long Road lyrics

It's a long road
When you're on your own
And it hurts when
They tear your dreams apart
And every new town
Just seems to bring you down
Trying to find peace of mind
Can break your heart
It's a real war
Right outside your front door I tell ya
Out where they'll kill ya
You could use a friend
Where the road is
That's the place for me
Where I'm me in my own space
Where I'm free that's the place
I wanna be
'Cause the road is long yeah
Each step is only the beginning
No breaks just heartaches
Oh man is anybody winning
It's a long road
And it's hard as hell
Tell me what do you do
To survive
When they draw first blood
That's just the start of it
Day and night you gotta fight
To keep alive
It's a long road ...
