Don't need no copy of vogue magazine Don't need to dress like no Beauty Queen High heels or sneakers, he don't give a damn My baby loves me just the way that I am My baby loves me just the way that I am He never tells me I'm not good enough Just give me unconditional love He loves me tender and he loves me mad He loves me silly and he loves me sad
[Chorus] He thinks I'm pretty, he thinks I'm smart He likes my nerve and he loves my heart He's always sayin' he's my biggest fan My baby loves me just the way that I am My baby loves me just the way that I am
And when there's dark clouds in my eyes He just sits back and lets 'em roll on by I come in like a lion go out like a lamb My baby loves me just the way I am My baby loves me just the way I am
[Chorus]
He thinks I'm pretty, he thinks I'm smart He likes my nerve and he loves my heart Don't see no reason to change my plan My baby loves me just the way I am My baby loves me just the way I am
Bewteen the perfect world and the bottom line Keeping love alive in these troubled times It's a mircle in itself And we know too well what that's about Still we made it through, only God knows how We must've had a little help (Must've been)
[Chorus] Wild Angels, Wild Angels Watching over you and me Wild Angels, Wild Angels Baby what could it be
Well it must've been hard, it must've been tough Keeping up with crazy fools like us 'Cause it's so easy to fall apart And we still break each other's heart sometimes Spent some nights on the jagged side Somehow we wake up in each other's arms (Must've been)
[Chorus]
There are some nights I watch you while you dream I swear I hear the sound of beating wings
My heart's not ready for the rocking chair I need somebody who really cares So tired of livin' solitaire Someday I'm gonna be Safe in the arms of love.
Strip your heart and it starts to show Love is a high-wire act,I know Someday I'll find a net below Someday I'm gonna be Safe in the arms of love Safe in the arms of love.
[Chorus] I want arms that know how to rock me Safe in the arms of love I want to fall and know that love has caught me Safe in the arms of love Safe in the arms of love.
I want a heart to be forever mine Want eyes to see me satisfied Gonna hang my heartaches out to dry Some day I'm gonna be Safe in the arms of love Safe in the arms of love.
There you are In the early light of day There you are In the quiet words I pray I've been blessed by the simple happiness Of the perfect love we've made Everytime I turn around When I'm lost and when I'm found Like an angel standing guard There you are Everytime I take a breath And when I forget to breathe You're watching over me There you are When I'm looking for the light In the middle of the night Searching for the brightest star There you are
There you are Standing in a crowded room There you are The earth and on the moon My desire is to stand by the fire That burns inside of you Everytime I turn around When I'm lost and when I'm found Like an angel standing guard There you are Everytime I take a breath And when I forget to breathe You're watching over me There you are When I'm looking for the light In the middle of the night Searching for the brightest star There you are
When I'm looking for the light In the middle of the night Searching for the brightest star There you are There you are There you are
I used to live in a darkened room Had a face of stone And a heart of gloom Lost my hope, I was so far gone Cryin all my tears With the curtains drawn I didn't know until my soul broke free I've got these angels watching over me, yeah
Oh watch me go I'm a happy girl Everybody knows That the sweetest thing that you'll ever see In the whole wide world Is a happy girl
I used to hide in a party crowd Bottled up inside Feeling so left out Standing in a corner wearing concrete shoes With my frozen smile And my lighted fuse Now everytime i start to feel like that I roll my heart out like a welcome mat
Oh watch me go I'm a happy girl Everybody knows That the sweetest thing that you'll ever see In the whole wide world Is a happy girl
Laugh when i feel like it Cry when i feel like it That's just how my life is That's how it goes
Oh watch me go I'm a happy girl And i've come to know That the world won't change Just 'cause I complain Let the axis twirl I'm a happy girl
Oh watch me go I'm a happy girl Everybody knows That the sweetest thing that you'll ever see In the whole wide world Is a happy girl
Red sun sitting on the road behind her A hundred miles out of her hometown Drops a quarter in a beat up pay phone Listens to it rattle on down Voices cold as the phone she's holding The connects way too clear He's yelling where's my inner She's too far gone to care She says listen here
There's a time to stand and the time is now or never A time to fly, time to let go forever A time to grow, and a time to discover Life is precious, every second You've wasted mine and it's my time
She puts a few more miles between them He pours a distance of his own Starts talking to the bottle It's all that left now she's gone He rages on till the National Anthem Come on his TV Then he looks straight at the bottle And says you did this to me And then he screams
There's a time to stand and the time is now or never A time to fly, time to let go forever A time to grow, and a time to discover Life is precious, every second You've wasted mine and it's my time
It's my time, it's my time, it's my time And the time is what you make it It's my time, it's my time, it's my time
There's a time to stand and the time is now or never A time to fly, time to let go forever A time to grow, and a time to discover Life is precious, every second You've wasted mine and it's my time
From the day we met You made me forget All my fears Knew just what to say And you kissed away All my tears
I knew this time I had finally found Someone to build my life around To be a lover and a friend After all my heart had put me through I knew that it was safe with you And what we had would never end Wrong again
Everybody swore They'd seen this before We'd be fine And you'd come to see that you still loved me In good time
And they said there's nothing you can do It's something that he's going through It happens to a lot of men And I told myself that they were right That you'd wake up and see the light And I just had to wait 'til then Wrong again
And it seemed to me the pain would last My chance for happiness had passed And nothing waited 'round the bend I was sure I'd never find someone To heal the damage you had done And my poor heart would never mend Wrong again Wrong again
Hold me like a wild flower Fall around me like a sun shower Kiss me like you're on fire And tell me what's underneath
Show me I want you to show me What love is
Run with me like a hell bent Gypsy Scream for me from the highest balcony Carve my name on an old red door in Spain Make me immortal, make me immortal in your heart
Show me I want you to show me What love is What love is
Baby, get my attention Touch me deep inside Show me what I've been missing Missing all my life
Give me my finest hour Give me my ray of light Give me something that can't be denied
Like a thousand red balloons In a sapphire sky A roman candle burning Burning through the night
Like the pyramids in Egypt The diamonds in your eyes Show me Show me what love is
Like the Eiffel tower shining With a million lights Snowflakes falling like confetti On a New York City night
And to hold on to forever Newborn babies cry (Show me, show me) I want you to show me What love is
Show me Show me what love is Like a wild flower (Like a wild flower)
The sun is shinin' everyday Clouds never get in the way for you and me I've known you just a week or two But baby I'm so into you Can hardly breathe
And I'm in so totally Wrapped up emotionally Attracted so physically Actin' so recklessly I need you so desperately Sure as the sky is blue Baby, I love you, I love you
I never knew that I could feel like this Can hardly wait till our next kiss You're so cool If I'm dreaming please don't wake me up Cause baby I can't get enough Of what you do
And I'm in so electrically Charged up kinetically Actin' erratically Need you fanatically You get to me magically Sure as the sky is blue Baby, I love you
I can't believe that this is real, the way I feel Baby I'm gone head over heals
And I'm in so totally Wrapped up emotionally Attracted so physically Actin' so recklessly I need you so desperately Sure as the sky is blue
And I'm in so electrically Charged up kinetically Actin' eratically Need you fanatically You get to me magically Sure as the sky is blue
Baby, I love you Baby, I love you Do you love me too Baby, I love you
confetti fallin' from the sky my hometown on the 4th of july a midnight snow on Christmas eve like standin' up for what you believe
that's how I feel when I'm with you that's how I feel when I'm with you that's how I feel that's how I feel when I'm with you
your lucky coat, the first day of fall when you wake up laughin' just because an old church door that stays wide open a perfect heart that's never been broken
that's how I feel when I'm with you that's how I feel when I'm with you that's how I feel that's how I feel when I'm with you
that's how I feel when I'm with you every day there's something new to cry about, to laugh about those moments I can't live without that's how I feel that's how I feel when I'm with you, yeah when I'm with you when I'm with you
This is for all you girls about thirteen, High school can be so rough can be so mean, Hold on to on to your innocence, Stand your ground when everybody's givin' in.
This one's for the girls
This is for all you girls about twenty five, In little apartments just tryin' to get by, Livin' on on dreams and spaghetti-o's, Wonderin' where your life is gonna go.
[Chorus] This one's for the girls, Who've ever had a broken heart, Who've wished upon a shooting star, Your beautiful the way you are, This one's for the girls, Who love without holdin' back, Who dream with everything they have, All around the world, This one's for the girls.
This is for all you girls about forty two, Tossin' pennies into the fountain of youth, Every life line on your face, Made you who you are today.
[Chorus]
Yeah we're all the same inside, From one to ninety nine
Well she seemed alright by dawn's early light Though she looked a lil worried and weak She tried to pretend he wasn't drinking again But Daddy left the proof on her cheek And I was only eight years old that summer And I always seemed to be in the way So I took myself down to the fair in town On Independence Day...
Well, word gets around in a small, small town They said he was a dangerous man But Momma was proud, and she stood her ground She knew she was on the losin' end Some folks whispered, some folks talked But everybody looked the other way And when time ran out there was no one about On Independence Day...
Let freedom ring Let the white dove sing Let the whole world know that today is the day of a reckoning Let the weak be strong Let the right be wrong Roll the stone away Let the guilty pay It's Independence Day
Well, she lit up the sky that Fourth of July By the time that the firemen come They just put out the flames and took down some names and sent me to the county home Now I ain't sayin' it's right, or it's wrong But maybe it's the only way Talk about your revolution It's Independence Day...
Let freedom ring Let the white dove sing Let the whole world know that today is the day of a reckoning Let the weak be strong Let the right be wrong Roll the stone away let the guilty pay It's Independence Day
