Just to see her
Just to touch her Just to hold her in my arms again one more time If I could feel her warm embrace See her smiling face Can't find anyone to take her place I've got to see her again I would do anything I would go anywhere There's nothing I wouldn't do Just to see her again I can't hide it I can't fight it It's so hard to live without the love she gave to me Doesn't she know it I tried hard not to show it Can't I make her realize that she really needs me again I would do anything I would go anywhere There's nothing I wouldn't do Just to see her again She brightened up my everyday Made me feel so good in every way If I could have her back to stay I've got to see her again |

People say I'm the life of the party
'Cause I tell a joke or two Although I might be laughing loud and hearty Deep inside I'm blue So take a good look at my face You know my smile looks out of place If you look closer it's easy to trace The tracks of my tears I need you... Need you Since you left me if you see me with another girl Looking like I'm having fun Although she may be cute, she's just a substitute 'Cause you're the permanent one So take a good look at my face You know my smile looks out of place If you look closer it's easy to trace The tracks of my tears Outside I'm masquerading Inside my hope is fading I'm just a clown since you put me down My smile is my make up I wear since my break-up with you Baby, take a good look at my face You know my smile looks out of place If you look closer it's easy to trace The tracks of my tears |

Let it be soon, don't hesitate
Make it now, don't wait Open your heart and let my love come in I want the moment to stop when I can fill your heart With more love, and more joy Than age or time could ever destroy My love will be so solid It would take a hundred lifetimes To live it down, wear it down, tear it down This is no fiction This is no act This is real, it's a fact I'll always belong only to you Each day I'll be living to make sure I'm giving you more love and more joy Than age or time could ever destroy My love will be so solid It would take a hundred lifetimes To live it down, wear it down, tear it down As we grow older no need to fear When you need me I'll be here I'll be beside you every step of the way A heart that's truthful and keeping you youthful With more love, more joy Than age or time can ever destroy My love will be so solid It would take a hundred lifetimes To live it down, war it down, tear it down |
