Rita Coolidge - The Collection [compilation] (2000) by Rita Coolidge (보컬) on maniadb.com

Outside the rain begins and it may never end So cry no more on the shore a dream will take us out to sea Forever more forever more Close your eyes and dream and you can be with me 'neath the waves through the caves of hours Long forgotten now We're all alone we're all alone Close the window calm a light And it will be alright No need to bother now Let it out let it all begin Learn how to pretend Once a story's told It can't help but grow old Roses do lovers too So cast your seasons to the wind And hold me dear oh hold me dear Close the window calm a light And it will be alright No need to bother now Let it out let it all begin All's forgotten now We're all alone oh oh we're all alone Close the window calm a light And it will be alright No need to bother now Let it out let it all begin Owe it to the wind my love -

I'd rather leave while i'm in love
while I still believe
the meaning of the word
I'll keep my dreams and just pretend
that you and I
are never gonna end
Too many times I've seen
the rose die on the vine
somebody's heart gets broke
nusually it's mine
I don't want to take the chance
of being hurt again
and you and I can't say good bye
So if you wake and find me gone
oh baby carry on
you see I need my fantasy
I still believe
it's best to leave while I'm in love

Too many times I've seen
the rose die on the vine
somebody's heart gets broken
usually It's mine
I don't want to take the chance
of being hurt again and
you and I can't say good bye
So if you wake and find me gone
oh baby carry on
you see I need my fantasy
I still believe
it's best to leave while I'm in love

I still believe
it's best to leave while I'm in love

Your love is liftin me higher, than I've ever been lifted before.

Your love is liftin me higher, than I've ever been lifted before
so keep it up, quench my desire and I'll be at your side forever more
Now once, I was downhearted disappointment was my closest friend
But you came, he soon departed and he never showed his face again

I'm so glad I finally found you, your that one in a million man
When you wrap your lovin arms around me I can stand up and face the world again

Your love is liftin me higher than I've ever been lifted before (higher)
So keep it up, quench my desire and I'll be at your side forever more (higher)
(Repeat x3)

There are stars
In the Southern sky
Southward as you go
There is moonlight
And moss in the trees
Down the Seven Bridges Road

Now I have loved you like a baby
Like some lonesome child
And I have loved you in a tame way
And I have loved you wild

Sometimes there's a part of me
Has to turn form here and go
Running like a child from these warm stars
Down the Seven Bridges Road

There are stars in the Southern sky
And if ever you decide
You should go
There is a taste of time sweetened honey
Down the Seven Bridges Road

Somewhere theres a river,looking for a stream
Somewhere thres a dreamer,looking for a dream
Somewhere theres a drifter,trying to find its way
Somewhere someones waiting to hear somebody say

I believe in you,and I can't even count the ways that
I believe in you,and I want to do is help you to believe in you

Somewhere someones reaching trying to grab that ring
Somewhere theres a silent voice lerning how to sing
Some of us can't move ahead we're paralized with fear
And everybodys waiting, to hear somebody say

I believe in you,and I can't even count the ways that
I believe in you,and I want to do is help you to believe in you

I believe in you, and i can't even count the ways that
I believe in you,and all iwant to do is help you to believe in you

I will hold you up
I will help you stand i will comfort you when you need a friend
I will be the voice thats calling I (hold till fade)

I believe in you and ican't even count the ways that
I believe in you and there are just so many ways that
I believe in you and all I want to do is help you to believe in you

Like a bird on the wire,
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.
Like a worm on a hook,
Like a knight from some old fashioned book
I have saved all my ribbons for thee.
If I, if I have been unkind,
I hope that you can just let it go by.
If I, if I have been untrue
I hope you know it was never to you.

Like a baby, stillborn,
Like a beast with his horn
I have torn everyone who reached out for me.
But I swear by this song
And by all that I have done wrong
I will make it all up to thee.
I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch,
He said to me, "You must not ask for so much."
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door,
She cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?"

Oh like a bird on the wire,
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.

WORDS
WRITERS BARRY, MAURICE AND ROBIN GIBB

Smile an everlasting smile A smile could bring you near to me Don't ever let me find you gone 'Cause that would bring a tear to me This world has lost its glory Let's start a brand new story Now my love right now there'll be No other time and I can show you How my love Talk in everlasting words And dedicate them all to me And I will give you all my life I'm here if you should call to me You think that I don't even mean A single word I say It's only words, and words are all I have to take your heart away You think that I don't even mean A single word I say It's only words, and words are all I have to take your heart away It's only words, and words are all I have to take your heart away

One fine day, you'll look at me
And you will know our love was, meant to be
One fine day, you're gonna want me for your girl
The arms I long for, will open wide
And you'll be proud to have me, right by your side
One fine day, you're gonna want me for your girl
Though I know you're the kind of boy
Who only wants to run around
I'll keep waiting, and, someday darling
You'll come to me when you want to settle down,
Oh!
One fine day, we'll meet once more
And then you'll want the love you threw away before
One fine day, you're gonna want me for your girl
One fine day, you're gonna want me for your girl

Oh, I tried to make the best of
All the sweet love that you gave me
Maybe I'm crazy
But I keep on losing ground

Fool that I am, fool that I may be
When will I ever know what's true
And if I found out differently
Would I still love you?

Two hearts breakin', two hearts achin'
Someone's takin' more than they gave
Trusting in someone
Who has no trust in me

Fool that I am, fool that I may be
When will I ever know what's true
And if I found out differently
Would I still love you?

Fool that I am, fool that I may be
When will I ever know what's true
And if I found out differently
Would I still love you?
Would I still love you?

I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste, a flannel for my face
Pajamas, a hairbrush, new shoes and a case
I said to my reflection let's get out of this place
Past the church and the steeple, the laundry on the hill
Billboards and the buildings, memories of it still
Keep calling and calling
But forget it all, I know I will

Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
What's been going on,
Now that you have gone,
There's no other.
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered.

I'm at the carpark, the airport, the baggage carousel
The people keep on crowding. I'm wishing I was well.
I said it's no occasion, it's no story I can tell.
At my bedside empty poket, a foot without a sock
Your body gets much closer, I fumble with the clock
Alarmed by the seduction, I wish that it would stop.
(repeat
)
I bought a novel, some perfume, a fortune all for you.
But it's not my consciedce that hates to be untrue
I asked of my reflection thee me what is there to do

I can't remember when I've felt this high
Must be something special about the way you're loving me tonight
You know that I can't remember when I've felt this right
Loving you the way I do
Has made me feel like a shooting star
Shining bright and shining far
And I wonder how I ever got alone

Without you
There's something very special about you
You're all I ever think about it's true
Baby it's you
I'm talkin about you

I was sitting back and watching my life go by
Until you came along and picked me up
Oh and now I'm starting out a brand new life
And ev'rything I say and do is all because of you boy
You've given me a new joy
and I wonder how I ever got alone

Without you
There's something very special about you
You're all I ever think about it's true
Baby it's you
I'm talkin about you

Now I'll never have to sit around and cry no more
Baby ever since you walked in through my door
And now I know as long as I have you
I'll always know that ev'rything that's good and new
Is all because of you boy
You've given me a new joy
And I wonder how I ever got alone

Without you
There's something very special about you
You're all I ever think about it's true
Baby it's you
I'm talkin about you

I need you here on my mind
Every hour of the day
Without your sweet inspiration
The lonely hours of the night
Just don't go my way

A woman in love
Needs sweet inspiration
Yeah, and honey that's all I ask, that's all I ask from you
I've gotta have your sweet inspiration
You know there just ain't no tellin' what a satisfied woman might do

The way you call me baby, baby
Is such a sweet inspiration
The way you call me darlin', darlin'
Sets my heart to skating
And if I'm out in the rain, baby
And in a bad situation
You know I just reach back in my mind
And there I find your sweet, sweet inspiration

Sweet inspiration
Oh, what a power
And I've got the power
Every hour of the day
I need your sweet inspiration
To go on, to go on living
To keep on giving this way

I need your sweet inspiration
Sweet inspiration, sweet inspiration, sweet inspiration
Sweet, sweet inspiration
Sweet, sweet inspiration
I need, sweet inspiration
