Cher - Greatest Hits [compilation] (2005) by Cher (보컬) on maniadb.com

Sometimes when i'm down and all alone
just like a child without a home.
The love you give me keeps me hanging on
oh honey, all i ever need is you.

Your my first love your my last.
Your my future your my past.
And loving you is all i ask
oh honey, all i ever need is you.

Winters come and they go,
and we watch the melting snow.
sure as summer follows spring
all the things you do.
give me a reaon to build my world around you.

Some men follow rainbows i am told.
some men search for silver some for gold.
i have found my treasure in your soul honey
all i ever need is you.

without love i'd never find a way,
through ups and downs of every single day.
i won't sleep at night until you say my honey,
all i ever need is you.

I was born in the wagon of a travellin′ show
My mama used to dance for the money they′d throw
Papa would do whatever he could
Preach a little gospel, sell a couple bottles of
Doctor Good

*Gypsys, tramps, and thieves
We′d hear it from the people of the town
They′d call us Gypsys, tramps, and thieves
But every night all the men would come around
And lay their money down

Picked up a boy just south of
Mobile Gave him a ride, filled him with a hot meal I was sixteen, he
was twenty-one
Rode with us to Memphis
And papa woulda shot him if he knew what he′d done

* Repeat

I never had schoolin′ but he taught me well
With his smooth southern style
Three months later I′m a gal in trouble
And I haven′t seen him for a while, uh-huh I haven′t seen him for a
while, uh-huh

She was born in the wagon of a travellin′ show
Her mama had to dance for the money they′d throw
Grandpa′d do whatever he could
Preach a little gospel, sell a couple bottles of
Doctor Good

* Repeat (X2)

You were the only thing I had
How could a good love go so bad
Somehow I guess I should have known
That you would leave me here alone

They say you found somebody new
But that won't change my love for you
How could you leave me on my own
You know I hate to sleep alone

Remember how it used to be
When you were here with me
You were the only one I've known
And how I hate to sleep alone

Someday, some way, somebody new
Will make you feel the way that I do
But I just wish that you'd come home
You know that I hate to sleep alone

But I just wish that you'd come home
You know that I hate to sleep alone

When you meet a boy
That you like a lot
And you fall in love
But he loves you not

If a flame should start
As you hold him near
Better keep your heart
Out of danger, dear

For the way of love
Is a way of woe
And the day may come
When you'll see him go

Then what will ya do
When he sets you free
Just the way that you
Said goodbye to me

When you meet a boy
That you like a lot
And you fall in love
But he loves you not

If a flame should start
As you hold that boy near
Better keep your heart
Out of danger, dear

For the way of love
Is a way of woe
And the day may come
When you'll see him go

Then what will ya do
When he sets you free
Just the way that you
Said goodbye to me

That's the way of love
The way of love

When you find out where you're goin'
Let me know
Cause I love you just enough
To let you go

While you're running free and clear
Please don't disappear
When you find out where you're goin'
Let me know

When you find out where you're goin'
Count me in
And I'll never put you down
For where you've been
And I'll join you when you find
That peace within your mind
When you find out where you're goin'
Let me know

I'm letting go for one night
And I know we'll be alright
Though he may never come back
When he leaves my bed tonight

When you find out where you're goin'
Let me know
And I promise I won't say "I told you so"
And when the time comes that you say
"You finally found your way"
Then no matter where you are
Be sure I know
Then no matter where you are
Be sure I know, oh

My father married a pure Cherokee
My mother's people were ashamed of me
The Indians said I was white by law
The white man always called me "Indian Squaw"

CHORUS:
Half-breed, that's all I ever heard
Half-breed, how I learned to hate the word
Half-breed, she's no good they warned
Both sides were against me since the day I was born

We never settled, went from town to town
When you're not welcome you don't hang around
The other children always laughed at me
"Give her a feather, she's a Cherokee"

Chorus

We weren't accepted and I felt ashamed
Nineteen I left them, tell me who's to blame
My life since then has been from man to man
But I can't run away from what I am

Chorus

The fortune queen of New Orleans
Was brushing her cat in her black limousine
On the back seat were scratches
From the marks of men her fortune she had won
Couldn't see through the tinted glass
She said, "Home James" and he hit the gas
I followed her to some darkened room
She took my money, she said, "I'll be with you soon"

CHORUS:
Dark lady laughed and danced
And lit the candles one by one
Danced to her gypsy music
Till her brew was done
Dark lady played black magic
Till the clock struck on the twelve
She told me more about me
Than I knew myself

She dealt two cards, a queen and a three
And mumbled some words
That were so strange to me
Then she turned up a two-eyed jack
My eyes saw red but the card
Still stayed black
She said the man you love is secretly true
To someone else who is very close to you
My advice is that you leave this place
Never come back and forget you ever saw my face

Chorus

So I ran home and crawled in my bed
I couldn't sleep because of all the things she said
Then I remembered her strange perfume
And how I smelled it once in my own room
So I sneaked back and caught her with my man
Laughing and kissing till they saw the gun in my hand
The next thing I knew they were dead on the floor
Dark lady would never turn a card up anymore

Chorus

When you're talkin' in your sleep,
And the name that you whisper ain't mine
And I've finally faced the fact
That you're cheatin' on me one more time
When my anger starts to rumble
And my steam starts to rise
And the wheels keep turning
Faster as I think of all your lies

Oh that train of thought runnin' right on time
But it's off the track and I'm losing my mind
'Cause the way you used me
Gonna drive me insane honey
Say you'll never leave me
For God's sake stop the train

Oh the camel back is broken
By the one extra straw added on
And a woman can't see reason
When her last ray of sunshine is gone
There's a finger on the trigger
And that locomotive sound
And I think how much I love you
And I turn the gun around

Oh that train of thought runnin' right on time
But it's off the track and I'm losing my mind
And you hold me the last time
As I try to explain, honey
Don't feel bad about me
I just had to stop this train

Gotta get off, gotta get off
Gotta get off, gotta get off (woo-woo)
Gotta get off, gotta get off
This train of thought (woo-woo)
Gotta get off, gotta get off (woo-woo)
Gotta get off, gotta get off
The train of thought (woo-woo)

They say we′re young and we don′t know
We won′t find out until we grow
Well I don′t know if all that′s true
Cause you got me and baby I got you... babe

I got you babe, I got you babe

They say our love won′t pay the rent
Before it′s earned our money′s all been spent
I guess that′s so we don′t have a pot
But at least I′m sure of all the things we got... babe

I got you babe, I got you babe

I got flowers in the spring
I got you to wear my ring
And when I′m sad you′re a clown
And if I get scared you′re always around

So let them say your hair′s too long
Cause I don′t care with you I can′t do wrong
Then put your little hand in mine
There aint no hill or mountain we can′t climb... babe

I got you babe, I got you babe

I got you to hold my hand
I got you to understand
I got you to walk with me
I got you to talk with me
I got you to kiss goodnight
I got you to hold me tight
I got you I won′t let go
I got you to love me so
I got you babe
