Don't have to humble yourself to me
I ain't your judge or your king Baby, you know I ain't no Queen of Sheba We may not even have our dignity, This could be just a powerful thing Baby we can choose, you know we ain't no amoeba Are you ready for the thing called love? Don't come from me and you, it comes from up above I ain't no porcupine, take off your kid gloves Are you ready for the thing called love? I ain't some icon carved out of soap Sent here to clean up your reputation Baby, you know you ain't no Prince Charming We can live in fear or act out of hope Some kind of peaceful situation Baby, how come the cry of love is so alarming Are you ready for the thing called love? Don't come from me and you, it comes from up above I ain't no porcupine, take off your kid gloves Are you ready for the thing called love? Ugly ducklings don't turn into swans Glide off down the lake Whether your sunglasses are off or on You only see the world you make Are you ready for the thing called love? Don't come from me and you, it comes from up above I ain't no porcupine, take off your kid gloves Are you ready for it? Are you ready for the thing called love? Don't come from me and you, it comes from up above I ain't no porcupine, take off your kid gloves Are you ready for it Are you ready for love, baby Oooh, yeah babe Are you ready for love |

Verse I
------- A friend of mine she cries at night, and she Calls me on the phone Sees babies everywhere she goes and she Wants one of her own. She's waited long enough she says And still she can't decide Pretty soon she'll have to choose and it tears her up inside... She's scared...scared she'll run out of time. Verse II -------- I see my folks, they're getting old, I watch their bodies change... I know they see the same in me, And it makes us both feel strange... No matter how you tell yourself, It's what we all go through... Those lines are pretty hard to take when they're staring' back at you. Scared you'll run out of time. Chorus ------ When did the choices get so hard? With so much more at stake. Life gets mighty precious when there's less of it to waste. Hummmm...Scared she'll run out of time. Verse III --------- Just when I thought I'd had enough All my tears were shed... No promise left unbroken, There were no painful words unsaid. You came along and showed me How to leave it all behind.... You opened up my heart again and then much to my surprise. I found love, Love in the Nick of Time. 3x |

Sittin' in front of your house,
Like rain in early dawn Workin' on a love letter Got my radio on. Got my eye on your window pane And i smoked a lot of cigarettes. Mercy, mercy but love is strange And you haven't even kissed me yet. Look comes to push, Push comes to shove, Shove comes to touch, Touch will come to love. Workin' on a love letter, Listenin' to a love song, I'm writing you a love letter, love letter, Got my radio on...radio, radio Hope you get the message baby. I know that you're gonna let me in. It's real in your neighborhood And this is more than i'm gonna bend. Look comes to push, Push comes to shove, Shove comes to touch, Touch will come to love. Why don't sit waitin' Why don't behavin' Love's waiting in the car, In the car and rain now. Workin' on a love letter, Listenin' to a love song, I'm writing you a love letter, love letter, Got my radio on...radio, radio Guitar solo Look comes to push, Push comes to shove, Shove comes to touch, Touch will come to love. (3 times with adlibs) Workin' on a love letter, Listenin' to a love song, I'm writing you a love letter, love letter, Got my radio on...radio, radio |

Hey!
Shut up. Don't lie to me. You think I'm blind but I got eyes to see Hey! Mister, how do you do. Oh pardon me I thought I knew you. Would you stand back baby 'cause I want to get a better look. The big man who couldn't handle the little bit of love you took. Hey, hey, have a heart, hey, have a heart. If you don't love me, why don't you let me go? Have a heart, please, oh don't you have a heart? Little by little you fade while I fall apart. Oh Oh Oh darling, I love you so. I told you yes, and then you told me no. Baby, how can you say You should be free and I should pay and pay And you talk and talk about LOVE and what you need But sooner or later your love is gonna make me bleed. Hey, hey, have a heart, hey, have a heart. If you don't love me, why don't you let me go? Have a heart, please, oh don't you have a heart? Little by little you fade while I fall apart. Oh, Oh. Talk on, talk on, but love is what you need. And sooner or later that love is gonna make you bleed. Hey, hey, have a heart, hey, have a heart. If you don't love me, why don't you let me go? Have a heart, please, oh don't you have a heart? Little by little you fade while I fall apart. Oh Oh have a heart (please) Hey Hey Have a heart (please) Have a heart |

Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head Lay down with me, tell me no lies Just hold me close, don't patronize Don't patronize me 'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these final hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no, you won't 'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't I'll close my eyes, then I won't see The love you don't feel when you're holding me Morning will come and I'll do what's right Just give me till then to give up this fight And I will give up this fight 'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these final hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no, you won't 'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't |

I was in a daze, movin in the wrong direction
Feelin that I'd always be the lonely one Then I saw your face, on the edge of my horizon Whisperin that I wasn't the only one The lonely one. One change intervention, see what it can signify The slightest misapprehension, baby And we'd have passed each other by When I heard your sweet voice callin Saw your light come shinin throught I couldn't stop my heart from turning Churnin out my love for you, my love to you. True love or perfection It seems like it's overdue Then just when you least expect it It comes sneakin up on you When I thought that I was dreamin Felt your body close to mine Now love takes on a different meaning Together till the end of time. I was in a daze, movin in the wrong direction Feeling that I'd always be the lonely one When I saw your face through the web of my confusion Whisperin that I wasn't the only one The lonely one |

Rainy Night, I'm All Alone
Sittin' Here Waitin' For Your Voice on the Phone Fever Turns to Cold, Cold Sweat Thinkin' About the Things We Ain't Done yet Tell me now, I've got to know, do you feel the same Do you just light up at the mention of my name? Don't worry baby, it ain't nothin' new That's just love sneakin' up on you If your whole world's shakin' and you feel like I do That's just love sneakin' up on you Nowhere on Earth for your heart to hide Once love comes sneakin' upon your blindside And you might as well try to Stop the Rain Or stand in the tracks of a Runaway Train You just can't fight it when a thing's meant to be So come on let's finish what you started with me Don't worry baby, it ain't nothin' new That's just love sneakin' up on you If your whole world's shakin' and you feel like I do That's just love sneakin' up on you |

Nobody else could make me happy
No one could hurt me like you do You were the only one That mattered Then you were gone...Love had moved on Left me alone thinking of... You...There was never any other You...and I were created to be true Isn't it Love that keeps us breathing Isn't it love we're sent here for Wasn't that love that we were feeling (That was something baby) Deep in our soul...Deeper than we know Keeping me holding out for You...There was never any question You'll be forever on my mind You and I, we were meant to be together True hearts in a world where love is dyin' And I might as well have been dyin' when We were apart When you came back I felt the beating of my heart You...There was never any question You'll be forever on my mind You and I, we were meant to be together You...and only you It was you...only you You...Always you |

This old house is falling down around my ears
I'm drowning in a river of my tears When all my will is gone you hold me sway I need you at the dimming of the day You pulled me like the moon pulls on the tide You know just where I keep my better side What days have come to keep us far apart A broken promise or a broken heart Now all the bonny birds have wheeled away I need you at the dimming of the day Come the night you're only what I want Come the night you could be my confidant I see you the street and in company Why don't you come and ease your mind with me I'm living for the night we steal away I need you at the dimming of the day I need you at the dimming of the day... |

There's a howlin at my window, baby
I hear him closin in That green-eyed jackal's got the scent Knows I'll let him in He slinks in by me at the fire More bitter than the cold And it's a rage as old as Hades That'll sputter on these coals I'm callin on the Furies, to let the toast begin I'm roasting on the spit of love again I never have believed you But I stick around for more Somethin bout that hollow in your eyes There's a darkness at the core Well, it's got me slowly turnin I'm basting on the bone I'm skewered like some drunken fool In juices all my own Callin the Furies' carrion choir Singin me back upon the pyre I'm roasting on that spit of love again You can call it what you want But it's lyin just the same There's no mercy in these ashes, baby When your love's a cryin shame And they're howlin in moonlight, baby They're here to call my bluff they're wonderin if there'll ever come a day When I'll have finally had enough I'm callin on the Furies, to let the toast begin I'm roasting on that spit of love again |

Last night I thought I found you
I saw it in a dream I was tangled in the rushes, baby You were caught up in the stream And the more I tried to reach you The more you slipped away And when I woke up in the darkness I was callin' out your name ( ) You and we dance around it Why is the truth so hard to say We long for true love, well We've found it, it's just One Belief Away There's a shadow in the garden And it's coiled around our hearts Won't you help me to believe you, baby Won't you show me where to start The more I try to reach you The more you slip away I want to wake up in the darkness and hear you callin' out my name ( ) |

Who'll take the only hearts they got
And throw them into the fire? Who'll risk their own self respect In the name of desire? Who'll regret everything they've done And who will get the bill? Lovers will Who'll hurt each other all the time And never give it a thought? Who'll lie about where they've been And hope they never get caught? Who'll say each other's kisses No longer thrill? Lovers will Lovers will do almost anything For the thrill that only love can bring If love is a healer, who'll be the first ones ill? Lovers will Who'll never know what they've got Until it's just about gone? And whose arms will gather up what's left To carry on? And who'll stalk that little bit of love That hasn't been killed? Lovers will |

Buzzin round your heart Why'd you wait till I was moving on To come out of the dark To say I'm what you need And you could spend your life with me Well I can't help you now (sorry baby, I can't help you) No, I can't help you now (keep away, I've fallen in love) Maybe there was a time But sometimes time runs out And I can't help you know Forty days since I stopped countin' the days And countin the ways that I loved you Good long while since I found Good enough reasons to stop believin' that you Are what I really want And now that you you do baby, I don't Well I can't help you now (sorry baby, I can't help you) No, I can't help you now (keep away, I've fallen in love) Maybe there was a time But sometimes time runs out And I can't help you know Now you say I'm the one you need And you could spend your life with me But I can't help you know,no I can't help you know Baby there was a time And I wish I could somehow But I can't help you Can't help you know |

Take this silver lining
Keep it in your own Sweet head And shine it when the night is Burning red Shine it in the twilight Shine it on the cold, cold ground Shine it till these walls Come tumbling down We were born with our eyes wide open So alive with wild hope now Can you tell me why Time after time they drag you down Down in the darkest deep Fools and their madness all around Know that the light don't sleep Step into the silence Take it in your own Two hands And sprinkle it like diamonds All across these lands Blaze it in the morning Wear it like an iron skin Only things worth living for are Innocence and magic, amen We were born with our eyes wide open So alive with wild hope now Can you tell me why Time after time they drag you down Down in the darkest deep Fools and their madness all around Know that the light don't sleep Woah, wooah We were born with our eyes wide open So alive with wild hope now Can you tell me why Time after time they drag you down Down in the talk so cheap Fools and their madness all around Know that the light don't sleep Know that the light don't sleep Time after time They drag you down Down in the darkness deep Fools in their madness all around Know that the light don't sleep Know that the light don't sleep |
