Summer time, kids in the street We were up on the roof laughing at the heat that was the last I ever saw of you Now it's December, cold and dark No more rainbows over Central Park In this house no window has a view There's no love here without you (Chorus) When you gonna come back home When you gonna see it's been too long When you gonna come back home to me Standin?at the door and I turn the key I'm holding my breath half expecting to see you lyin' on the bed, smilin' up at me I'm goin' crazy 'cause I just don't know Which way your heart's gonna go I only pray it leads you back to me Darlin' let your heart Lead you back to me |

Ive waited years For you tonight My faith in love has been my guiding light I heard you voice I read your heart I fell in love with you though we were miles apart tonight and forever Tonight and forever I am yours O sister make My wedding bed Tie a bunch of wild thorn branches At the head And scatter roses on the floor Three bright stars shining at our door Tonight and forever Tonight and forever Tonight and forever, I am yours And a song on the wind Rising from the sea A fire so cold A flame so new No, I could never ask for more than you The moon is high The tide is in Now the night is ours Let the dance begin Tonight and forever Tonight and forever, I am yours |

When you got a pretty boy You want a smart one When you got a smart one You want him pretty When you got one who's all over you You wish he'd hold back Then when he's being cool You want him to attack Spoiled girl, living in her own world Spoiled girl, thinks of nothing but herself Someone's there to cut her hair Will you wear it up or down What, no bubbles for the bath? Send the chauffeur into town You'll have fun tonight Now you've gonna call him up 'Hi' you say 'I'll call you back' He waits and waits but no such luck Spoiled girl, living in her own world Spoiled girl, thinks of nothing but herself When you want her, you can't have her When you need her you can't find her She is busy keeping dizzy with the business of a little Spoiled girl, living in her own world Spoiled girl, thinks of nothing but herself |

He figures out a restaurantS ARE IN CONNECTICUT Where they won't be recognized He can always slip the maitre'd a ten Get a private little table and try her on for size Make a plan of where to do it when He's so sly, he's in love with his lies (Chorus) And the wives, the wives are in Connecticut The wives, the wives are in Connecticut Trying to forget it, that they really do regret it That they moved up to Connecticut That they moved up to Connecticut The first year I was faithful He confesses to the girl Admitting to the least of his sins His candour, so disarming, in this wicked city world She falls for it and once again he wins He's so sly, he's in love with his lies (Repeat Chorus) The five flight walk up Can he make it? He keeps promising to go back to the gym He thinks about his wife So passionate last night Was she really feeling it for him? Or was it junior's teacher? Or the carpenter who put up the shelves Or the mechanic who fixed the wagon Or the gardener who dug the well Or the Italian riding instructor Or the man on the Carousel Or the out of work actor in Westport Or the surgeon who cured the ills Or the Yalie from New Haven Or the farmer in the Dell (Repeat Chorus) How about The lifeguard at the yacht club The hairdresser from New London The tennis pro from Fairfield The Fuller Brush man from Bristol The fisherman from Mystic The novelist from New Canan The usher at the movie theater The architect from Guilford The man on the carousel |

A sweet young man sat on my chair With a tape machine and a face of fear He asked how does it feel to be who you are I thought, this boy really thinks I'm a star I answered him with humility And then asked him if he'd like some tea Interview, who's interviewing who Are you interviewing me Or am I interviewing you He asked if the rug was some ancient, lovely thing I lied and said 'Yes a gift from a king' I watched his arms and how his lips moved He asked me if my parents approved He asked to see my Ruby ring And if as a child I had liked to sing Interview, who's interviewing who Are you interviewing me Or am I interviewing you I said yes, Oh yes 400 times 'You've so open'he said 'So you always tell the truth?' 'Never,'I said, 'That's that?' But how would it feel to hold me in your arms You could get to know me down on the farm Then you could see me as the child I've become 'Cause being grown up can be so lonesome Baby, how would it feel to hold me now Baby, how would it feel to hold me now Interview, who's interviewing who Are you interviewing me Or am i interviewing you |

Make me feel something I used to feel I used to feel something for you But I've been sleep walking Stumbling in false starts, fumbling into false hearts Tumbling into false hearts, mainly mine (Chorus) Make me feel something Feel something Can it be I'm growing old Feel something Maybe I'm just too controlled Feel something I'm much too young to feel this old make me walk on air I used to dare I used to take chances for you But now I'm longing to feel passion 'Cause I've only been pretending Acting out the drama Dying for a happy end Just to feel alive I don't want to say 'I love you' To one more fantasy You'd never believe What a good actress I could be Remember when We were fresh in love Your eyes were pale like the moon We'd sit on the porch in Summer Listen to the breezes Spinning melodies I dressed you up like a god The one you were |

I've been saying that I'm Leave well enough alone Now I'm behaving Like I'm begging you for a bone When it feels good you can't help it You just hang by the phone And it felt that good last night I can't give it up You come on like a prince You got everyone convinced That you've a prince of a man But I'm the one who knows you I'm the one you show that you Don't give a damn Can't give it up, oh no, can't give it up I've been dreaming you fall in love with me No cold blooded scheming If it could be that easy But you still fight it And I must like it That I have to reach for what I want And as long as it feels that good I can't give it up I don't want to want you I don't want to want you 'Cause you can't give, can't give No, I don't want you cause you Can't give.... |

You may think I'm dumb
Or you may think you're sly But I know what you're cravin' I've been watchin' your eyes There's a girl 'cross the room She's been glancin' this way both of you wonderin' when you'll have your day (chorus) Black honeymoon I'll be leavin' you soon Next time maybe I'll be the girl Across the room black honeymoon She's tossin' her hair She won't meet my stare I turn to accuse you You pretend she's not there The pains not so bad cause I've played thru this game The players are different But the moves they're the same Now she's gone And you're smilin' back but my blood's turned to ice, ice, ice, ice Now I don't feel undone And I don't feel afraid there's nothing quite so cold As the heart you've betrayed |
