David Cassidy

Our being together is always
A very big deal to me.
Us taking some time from our daily routines
Only means that we care
And we wanted to share for a while
A tear or a smile.
Give part of ourselves to somebody else.

And our being together is always
So honest and real to me.
Us both saying "Yes, I'm aware that you're there"
Goes to show how you know
When somebody loves you so.

Being together is my kind of fun.
Learning your ups and your downs
Is my dance in the sun.
And if someone asked me
What I needed to count on
To make me as happy as I've ever been
It would be our being together again.

Look baby, the sun is shining high
It's already on top of the sky.
And I've been wishin' I could fly away with you.
Yes I do feel the dark inside this room.
We must think of something soon
The dreamy afternoon is nothing to rely on.
We won't get by on blind hope.
And someday, someday, somehow,
Things will pass our way.

So come one wake up! Get out!
Feel the morning dew
We've still time to start something new.
And baby, there's a few more things
Left to do.
All through life
We've been needin' to win this race.
Unlock your allotted space.
Outside there is this place we can begin.
Don't you believe in blind hope?
And someday, someday, somehow,
Things will pass our way.

Cherish is the word I use to describe
All the feeling that I have
Hiding here for you inside
You don't know how many times
I wished that I had told you
You don't know how many times
I wished that I could hold you
You don't know how many times
I've wished that I could mold you into someone
Who could cherish me as much as I cherish you

Perish is the word that more than applies
To the hope in my heart each time I realize
That I am not going to be the one
To share your dreams
That I am not going to be the one
To share your schemes
That I am not going to be the one
To share what seems to be the life
That you could cherish me as much as I do yours

Oh, I'm beginning to think
That man has never found
The words that could make you want me
That have the right amount of letters
Just the right sound
That could make you hear
Make you see
That you're driving me out of my mind

Oh I could say I need you
But then you'd realize that I want you
Just like a thousand other guys
Who say they'd love you
With all the rest of their lives
When all they wanted was to
Touch your face, your hands
And gaze into your eyes

Cherish is the word I use to describe
All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside
You don't know how many times
I wished that I had told you
You don't know how many times
I wished that I could hold you
You don't know how many times
I wished that I could mold you into someone
That could cherish me as much as I cherish you

And I do
Cherish you
And I do
I cherish you
Yes I do
I cherish you

Could it be forever
Or is my mind just rambling on
Well I touched you once and I kissed you once
And now I feel like you're mine

Well I feel like you're mine and I see in your face
I'm not wrong to have these feelings
Well I feel like you're mine, I've never known a time before
That's had so many meanings

Could it be forever
Or am I just wasting time
Well I don't think so because you let me know
You make me feel like you're mine

Well I feel like you're mine and I can't remember
When the feelings have been stronger
And all I know is I can't let go
I wanna be with you I wanna be with you just a little while longer

All my feelings come together
All of me is here
Never know when I felt better
Cause I know this won't disappear

But

Could it be forever or is my mind just rambling on
Well maybe it is and if it is
Well then I'll be moving along

Well I feel like you're mine
And I see in your face I'm not wrong to have these feelings
Well I feel like you're mine and I've never known a time before
That's had so many meanings

See the funny little clown, see the puppet on a string
Wind him up, he'll sing, give him candy and he'll dance
But be certain not to feel that his funny face is real

Step right up and see him folks, couldn't you die at all his jokes
Couldn't you cry at all the tricks, he'll come up with in a fix
But be certain not to stray 'cause he'll steal your heart away

I am a clown, I am a clown, clown
You'll always see me smile, you'll never see me frown
Sometimes my scenes are good, sometimes they're bad
Not funny, ha-ha, funny sad

I am a clown, look at the clown, clown
Always a laughing face whenever you're around
Always the same routine, I never change
Not funny, ho-ho, funny strange

Sometimes I think the world is a circus town
Sometimes I feel like a lonely inside show
Man on the flying trapeze, he ain't never comin' down
He knows what I know if you look inside
If I didn't hide, you might decide you don't want me

I am a clown, that's why I'm a clown, clown
Just like the fool on the hill beggin' to come down
I want to live again, oh, I want to feel
Tell me you love me, make me real
Tell me you love me, make me real
Tell me you love me, make me real

See the funny little clown, see the puppet on a string
Wind him up and he will sing, give him candy, he will dance
But be certain not to feel if his funny face is real

I'm just a tambourine man,
A lonely one man street band.
So many people near me,
Won't someone stop and hear me?
Street light, shine bright
You are my only spotlight.

Only wanna make you happy
When I sing I'll make you happy.
Won't you let me sing my songs for you?

My songs they sound much better
when people start to gather.
I play for dimes and pennies,
But if you haven't any,
don't mind. Showtime!
I'll make you smile in no time

Only wanna make you happy
When I sing I'll make you happy.
Won't you let me sing my songs for you?

Here on the corner
Where I sing and play,
Where I'm the biggest star they've seen today.
And that's good enough for me,
And that's what I wanna be.

Only wanna make you happy
When I sing I'll make you happy.
Won't you let me sing my songs for you?

I had my chance
But now you're leaving with another man
Baby I've got to try and make you understand
If I can, If I can

Baby I'm sorry I needed some time to grow
I've got it all straight now
Baby believe me it's not what it seems to be
And if you me now
I know I lost my chance

You said goodbye
But I can't let something I believe in die
Can't you see how I'm feeling way down deep inside
Can you see, can't you see?

Baby I'm sorry I needed some time to grow
I've got it all straight now
Baby believe me it's not what it seems to be
And if you me now
I know I lost my chance

So please don't go
Look at all the love we've got to show
Don't you know that I'm always gonna love you so
Don't you know, don't you know

Baby I'm sorry I needed some time to grow
I've got it all straight now
Baby believe me it's not what it seems to be
And if you me now
I know I lost my chance

There's an aching in my head
From this bed I can't get used to
It's these little hours in the dark, I dread
As I spend my first night alone without you

Half of me has gone away
Gone the love I learned to cling to
Tomorrow I'll have to find a way
To live the rest of my life alone without you

You taught me how to live
To be myself
And how to give
Oh, and now it's you
Who's given up on giving

You lost the things, no one could teach
You changed and now you're out of reach
And life tonight, ooh life tonight, doesn't seem worth living

Sitting learning how to read
Back in school I never liked to
It's just one of those little things I'm gonna need
As I put my life together now without you

You taught me how to live
To be myself
And how to give
Oh, and now it's you
Who's given up on giving

You lost the things, no one could teach
You changed and now you're out of reach
And life tonight, ooh life tonight, doesn't seem worth living

Are you sleeping my baby?
Just close your eyes and let me run away.
Now, don't cha cry.
I am leaving my sweet baby.
I've been in love with one who's far away.
I can't live a lie.
I've got something inside of me you know I can't hide
And each day since I left her
She's been on my mind.
So take care of yourself and my, my Ricky besides
He's the best friend I had.
I guess this is good-bye.

Are you weeping my baby?
I let you down but I just cannot stay.
I can't live a lie.
Now I am leaving my sweet baby.
I got my ticket, it won't pass me by.
I can't live a lie.
I've got something inside of me you know I can't hide
And each day since I left her
She's been on my mind.
So take care of yourself and my, my Ricky besides
He's the best friend I had.
I guess this is good-bye,
This is good bye.
I guess this is goodbye.

I can't sleep tonight
I've found someone
You smiled at me and said
You were free and I was alone

Would we meet again
You needn't have asked
I'll wait for you at dawn
If this night will only pass

But the clock hands refuse to move
It's dark inside my room
It must be daylight soon
Where is the morning?

I can't believe all my dismay
Just had to pack and leave
When at last you looked my way

And so to bed but not to sleep
It's only morning light
That will end this watch I keep

But the stars shine across the land
Don't seem to understand
How things get out of hand
Where is the morning?

But the clock hands refuse to move
It's dark inside my room
It must be daylight soon
Where is the morning?
Where is the morning?
Where is the morning?

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away

Wonder this time where she's gone
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away

I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know

Hey I ought to leave I ought to leave her alone
But Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away

I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
Anytime she goes away
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
Anytime she goes away

Could it be forever

Will there come a day you and I can say
We can finally see each other?
Will there come a time we can find the time
To reach out for one another?

We've been travelin' in circles such a long, long time
Tryin' to say hello, hello!
And we can just let it ride, but you're someone that I'd
Like to get to know

[Chorus:]
I'll meet you halfway, that's better than no way
There must be some way to get it together
And if there's some way, I know that some day
We just might work it out forever

Will there come a day (Will there come a day)
You and I can say (You and I can say)
We can finally see each other?
Will there come a time (Will there come a time)
We can find the time (We can find the time)
To reach out for one another?

I'll meet you halfway, that's better than no way
I'll meet you halfway, that's better than no way

[Repeat and fade]

I remember April
when the sun was in the sky
And love was burning in your eyes

Nothing in the world could bother me
'cos I was living in a world of ecstasy.
But now you're gone I'm just a daydreamer
I'm walking in the rain
chasing after rainbows I may never find again

Life is much too beautiful to live it all alone
Oh how much I need someone to call my very own.
Now the summer's over
and I find myself alone
with only memories of you
I was so in love I couldn't see
'cos I was living in a world of make believe.
But now you're gone I'm just a daydreamer

I'm walking in the rain
chasing after rainbows I may never find again

Life is much too beautiful to live it all alone
Oh how much I need someone to call my very own.
I'm just a daydreamer
I'm walking in the rain
chasing after rainbows I may never find again

Life is much too beautiful to live it all alone
Oh how much I need someone to call my very own

I'm just a ...

How can I be sure
In a world that's constantly changin'?
How can I be sure
Where I stand with you?

Whenever I
Whenever I am away from you
I wanna die
'cause you know I wanna stay with you

How do I know?
Maybe you're trying to use me
Flying too high can confuse me
Touch me but don't take me down

Whenever I
Whenever I am away from you
My alibi is tellin' people I don't care for you
Maybe I'm just hanging around
With my head up, upside down
It's a pity
I can't seem to find someone
Who's as pretty 'n' lovely as you

How can I be sure
I really, really, really, wanna kno-o-ow
I really, really, really, wanna kno-o-ow



How's the weather?
Weather or not, we're together
Together we'll see it much better
I love you, I love you forever
You know where I can be found

How can I be sure
In a world that's constantly changing?
How can I be sure?
I'll be sure with you.

I can feel your heartbeat and you didn't even say a word
I can feel your heartbeat and you didn't even say a word
Oh, I know, pretty woman that your love can be heard

You can feel my heartbeat, too
I can tell you're feelin' me
You can feel my heartbeat, too
I can see you feelin' me
Oh, I know, pretty woman that your love can be heard
Oh...

We paint the night, let it shine in the light of our love
This is the night...yeah, this is the night of our love
I'll treat you like a woman, love you like a woman
Lord, I'll prove it baby, I'm a man of my word

Love, love...can'tcha feel your heartbeat
Love, love...I can feel your heartbeat
Love, love...can'tcha feel your heartbeat, love!

We paint the night, let it shine in the light of our love
This is the night...yeah, this is the night of our love
I'll treat you like a woman, love you like a woman
Lord, I'll prove it baby, I'm a man of my word

Love, love...can'tcha feel your heartbeat
Love, love...I can feel your heartbeat
Love, love...can'tcha feel my heartbeat
Love, love...I can feel your heartbeat
Love, love...can'tcha feel your heartbeat
Love, love...I can feel your heartbeat
Love, love...can'tcha feel it?
Love, love...I can feel it!
Love, love...gettin' stronger!
Love, love...Oh, I can feel it!
Love, love...I can feel it!
Love, love...It's gettin' stronger...
Love!

Ba, ba, ba, ba.
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba.
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba.

I'm sleeping
And right in the middle of a good dream
Like all at once I wake up
From something that keeps knockin' at my brain.
Before I go insane I hold my pillow to my head
And spring up in my bed
Screaming out the words I dread:
"I think I love you!"

This morning
I woke up with this feeling
I didn't know how to deal with
And so I just decided to myself
I'd hide it to myself and never talk about it
And didn't I go and shout it
When you walked into my room.
"I think I love you!"

I think I love you.
So what am I so afraid of?
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
A love there is no cure for.

I think I love you.
Isn't that what life is made of?
Though it worries me to say
I've never felt this way.

I don't know what I'm up against.
I don't know what it's all about.
I got so much to think about.

Hey, I think I love you.
So what am I so afraid of?
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
A love there is no cure for.

I think I love you.
Isn't that what life is made of?
Though it worries me to say
I've never felt this way.

Believe me,
You really don't have to worry.
I only want to make you happy
And if you say,
"Hey, go away," I will, but I think better still
I'd better stay around and love you.
Do you think I have a case?
Let me ask you to your face:
Do you think you love me?

I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you

Last night, I turned out the light, lay down and thought about you
I thought about the way that it could be
Two o'clock, wonderin' what I'm doin' here alone without you
So I close my eyes and dream you here to me and...

I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind
I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind

Hello, girl, yes it's five o'clock I know but you just listen
There's something that I've got to let you know
This is you, this pillow that I'm huggin' and I'm kissin'
And one more thing before I let you go...

I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind
I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind

Do dreams come true, well if they do, I'll have you
Not just for a night, but for my whole life through

I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind
I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind

I've been alive forever and I wrote the very first song
I put the words and the melodies together, I am music
And I write the songs.

I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs.

My home lies deep within you,
And I've got my own place in your soul.
Now, when I look out through your eyes,
I'm young again, even though I'm very old.

I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs.

Oh my music makes you dance
And gives you spirit to take a chance,
And I wrote some rock 'n' roll so you can move.
Music fills your heart,
Well, that's a real fine place to start.
It's from me, it's for you, it's from you, it's for me
It's a world wide symphony.

I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs.

I am music, and I write the songs.

Will there come a day you and I can say
We can finally see each other?
Will there come a time we can find the time
To reach out for one another?

We've been travelin' in circles such a long, long time
Tryin' to say hello, hello!
And we can just let it ride, but you're someone that I'd
Like to get to know

I'll meet you halfway, that's better than no way
There must be some way to get it together
And if there's some way, I know that some day
We just might work it out forever

Will there come a day (Will there come a day)
You and I can say (You and I can say)
We can finally see each other?
Will there come a time (Will there come a time)
We can find the time (We can find the time)
To reach out for one another?

I'll meet you halfway, that's better than no way
I'll meet you halfway, that's better than no way

If I didn't care more than words can say

If I didn't care would I feel this way?
If this isn't love
then why do I thrill?
And what makes my head go round an' round

While my heart stays still?
If I didn't care
would it be the same?
Would my ev'ry pray'r begin and end
When I speak your name?
And would I be sure that this is love
Beyond compare?
Would all this be true
If I didn't care for you?

If I didn't care more than words can say

It's one of those nights
When you turn out the lights
And you sit in the dark
And say to yourself
"I miss her"

It's one of those moods
When your body broods
And you conjure up her picture
And you kiss her

It's one of those things
For the pain it brings
You say to yourself
"Hey couldn't I live without it?"
Well I think so
On the other hand,
I doubt it

Suddenly she's crashing through my mind
Like waves upon the shore
And I nod my head whoa yes love
I'd welcome you again
If you knocked upon my door
If you didn't I'd seek you out love
I'd track you down for sure
Like a thousand times before
Whoa yes love
I'd welcome you again
Like you know I've done before

Yes love
You know I did before
Yes love
You know I did before

So it goes
It's a cold in your nose
It's a pain in the neck
It'll make you a wreck
If it gets ya

It's so insane
Cuz for all the rain
When you ask yourself
"Could you do it again"
You betcha

I hear a voice say
"You got no chance"
And it makes me mad
And I shout
"Oh yeah who says so?"
Well of course not
On the other hand,
I think so

Suddenly she's crashing through my mind
Like waves upon the shore
And I nod my head whoa yes love
I'd welcome you again
If you knocked upon my door
If you didn't I'd seek you out love
I'd track you down for sure
Like a thousand times before
Whoa yes love
I'd welcome you again
Like you know I did before

Yes love
You know I did before
Yes love
You know I did before
Yes love
You know I did before

In the eyes of the world I'm a loser just wastin' my time
I can't make a dime
In the eyes of the world being born was my first big mistake
I can't get a break
But in the eyes of my woman I stand
Like a hero, a giant, a man who's as tall as can be
Any fool can see

That she's lookin' through the eyes of love
Lookin' through the eyes of love
Lookin' through the eyes of love when she looks at me-ee.

In the eyes of the crowd I'm a do-nothin' kind of a guy
Who'll just live and die
In the eyes of the crowd I'm another poor Joe on the street
Can't get on my feet
But in the eyes of my woman they're wrong
I'm a king and a lover as strong and as brave as can be
Any fool can see

That she's lookin' through the eyes of love
Lookin' through the eyes of love
Lookin' through the eyes of love when she looks at me-ee.
She's making me believe someday
Someday I'm gonna find a way
To be the man that she can see When she looks at me
Lookin' through the eyes of love
Lookin' through the eyes of love
Lookin' through the eyes of love
Lookin' through the eyes of love.

So I'll never feel your touch again
I'll get used to it
Hearts don't break they just bend
I'll come bouncing back
You barely left a scratch on me

You were nothing
But a little play thing
And your love bite
It was only a sting
Baby when you went
It hardly made a dent in me

It was just a fleshwound in my pride
It aint no tragedy that I can't survive

I'm lyin' to myself every night
Without you baby nothing's been right
No matter what I say
Can't make you go away
I'm lyin' to myself that's the truth
It's killing me being without you
You're the only one
not fooling anyone
I'm lyin' to myself

I won't lie here
Alone in this bed
Broken record
Of your voice in my head
'Cause nothing that you said
Had any real effect on me

There's not a thing that I would change
No not much only everything
Just to have you again

I'm lyin' to myself every night
Without you baby nothing's been right
No matter what I say
Can't make you go away
I'm lyin' to myself

I can't deny it anymore
Gotta get you back in my life
'Cause that's all I've been living for

And I'm lyin' to myself
You're the only one
Not fooling anyone
I been lyin' to myself
No matter what I say
Can't make you go away
I'm lyin' to myself

Don't even say it, baby
'Cause your words cut like a knife
Don't even think it, baby
'Cause I can read everything in your mind

You just don't know how much I'll miss you
Maybe a thousand years or more
So don't tell me that you're leaving
Don't you walk out that door

There's no bridge I wouldn't cross
There's no river that's too wide
If you leave me, I would search for you, baby
Nothin' could keep me away

Don't you deny it, baby
Holding back love can cause you real pain
This is our one chance
So don't lose it, baby

Here comes the rest of your life once again
We gotta grab this with both hands
And we should never let it go, now we've got each other
Oh, I want the world to know

There's no bridge I wouldn't cross
There's no river that's too wide
If you leave me I would search for you, baby
Nothin' could keep me away

And I'll succeed at any cost
There's no bridge I wouldn't cross
All I want is just to be with you, baby
Hold you once again in my arms

Somebody told me, boy
You've got so much to learn
But they didn't know I heard all the lyin'
Done all my cryin', now it's got to be my turn

There's no bridge I wouldn't cross
There's no river that's too wide
If you leave me I would search for you, baby
Nothin' could keep me away

And I'll succeed at any cost
'Cause there's no bridge I wouldn't cross
All I want is just to be with you, baby
Hold you once again in my arms

There's no bridge I wouldn't cross
There's no river that's too wide
If you leave me I would search for you, baby
Nothin' could keep me away

And I'll succeed at any cost
'Cause there's no bridge I wouldn't cross
All I want is just to be with you, baby
Hold you once again in my arms

Are you sleeping my baby?
Just close your eyes and let me run away.
Now, don't cha cry.
I am leaving my sweet baby.
I've been in love with one who's far away.
I can't live a lie.
I've got something inside of me you know I can't hide
And each day since I left her
She's been on my mind.
So take care of yourself and my, my Ricky besides
He's the best friend I had.
I guess this is good-bye.

Are you weeping my baby?
I let you down but I just cannot stay.
I can't live a lie.
Now I am leaving my sweet baby.
I got my ticket, it won't pass me by.
I can't live a lie.
I've got something inside of me you know I can't hide
And each day since I left her
She's been on my mind.
So take care of yourself and my, my Ricky besides
He's the best friend I had.
I guess this is good-bye,
This is good bye.
I guess this is goodbye.

You may call me a rollin' stone, I'm a free born man and I stand alone
I come a-lookin' for a little satisfaction
I don't drive no Cadillac, all I've got's hangin' on my back
But I do believe in a physical attraction
I can warm your coldest night, I'll make ev'rythin' all right

Hooo, rock me baby, let me feel that beat
I said ahooo, rock me baby, right down to my feet
I said ahooo, rock me baby, hold me oh so tight
I said ahooo, rock me baby, rock me thru the night
You better hold me while you can
Or you gonna lose your midnight man
Now come on and rock me, rock me

I was twelve when I left home, ever since I've been on my own
I come a-lookin' for a little recreation
Guess I'll never settle down, it's always been just a one more town
Why I've loved from coast to coast across the nation
I can't promise I'll be true but I'll just see what I can do

Come on hooo, rock me baby, let me feel that beat
I said ahooo, rock me baby, right down to my feet
I said ahooo, rock me baby, hold me oh so tight
I said ahooo, rock me baby, rock me thru the night
You better hold me while you can
Or you gonna lose your midnight man
Now come on and rock me, rock me

Mh, come on and rock me, come on and shock me
Rock me, I'm rollin'
Come on and squeeze me, ooh, you sure can please me, uh-uh
All right now, get down

Hooo, rock me baby, let me feel that beat ...

Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a summer,
Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a time.
I guess I never took the time
To tell you how much I love you,
Now you and the road keep flashing through my mind.
Now you and the road keep flashing through my mind.

I caught a sunrise service on a Sunday in North Dakota,
Imagine you and me singing in a gospel choir.
Spent a rainy night on a river in Oklahoma,
Saw the northern lights on a Minnesota night
And our souls went a little bit higher.

Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a summer,
Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a time.
I guess I never took the time
To tell you how much I love you,
Now you and the road keep flashing through my mind.
Now you and the road keep flashing through my mind.

The old De Soto died on a hill
It couldn't climb in Montana
The kid who bought the wreck said
What the heck, I'll give you thirty five
So we were on our own,
Our thumbs to take us home to California.
By the time we made Denver with our
Truck driving friend we had wheels on fire

Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a summer,
Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a time.
I guess I never took the time
To tell you how much I love you,
Now you and the road keep flashing through my mind.
Now you and the road keep flashing through my mind.

You and the road, you and the road
On my mind.

There were times all along that I thought I was catching on
Now I see it was only time catching up with me.
As you stand at the door I know Ibe never wanted you more
There's just one thing before you turn and you walk out on me

If this is the last kiss
If this is the last touch

If this is the last time I can ever be holding you.
If this is the last race
I can never forget your face
If this is the last kiss I'll get used to it
I'll get through this somehow someway.

I won't stand in your way
I won't even begin to say
That you never looked better
Never looked so good to me
Though I've asked this before
I won't ever ask anything more
Just close your eyes and please
Do this for me.
And if this is the last kiss
If this is the last touch
...

If you've ever been a lover she's got what you're looking for.
So don't surrender
'cause you might discover
That somebody
Somewhere is waiting for you to remember the last kiss.
Just remember the last touch
Remember the last time

I can ever be holding you.
Just remember the last race
I can never forget your face

If this is the last kiss
Can't get used to it
I'll get used to it
No how
No
No way.
Never get used to it
Never get used to it

Never get used to it
Never get used to it
No way.

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away

Wonder this time where she's gone
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away

I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know

Hey I ought to leave I ought to leave her alone
But Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away

I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
Anytime she goes away
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
Anytime she goes away

Cherish is the word I use to describe
All the feeling that I have
Hiding here for you inside
You don't know how many times
I wished that I had told you
You don't know how many times
I wished that I could hold you
You don't know how many times
I've wished that I could mold you into someone
Who could cherish me as much as I cherish you

Perish is the word that more than applies
To the hope in my heart each time I realize
That I am not going to be the one
To share your dreams
That I am not going to be the one
To share your schemes
That I am not going to be the one
To share what seems to be the life
That you could cherish me as much as I do yours

Oh, I'm beginning to think
That man has never found
The words that could make you want me
That have the right amount of letters
Just the right sound
That could make you hear
Make you see
That you're driving me out of my mind

Oh I could say I need you
But then you'd realize that I want you
Just like a thousand other guys
Who say they'd love you
With all the rest of their lives
When all they wanted was to
Touch your face, your hands
And gaze into your eyes

Cherish is the word I use to describe
All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside
You don't know how many times
I wished that I had told you
You don't know how many times
I wished that I could hold you
You don't know how many times
I wished that I could mold you into someone
That could cherish me as much as I cherish you

And I do
Cherish you
And I do
I cherish you
Yes I do
I cherish you

Will there come a day you and I can say
We can finally see each other?
Will there come a time we can find the time
To reach out for one another?

We've been travelin' in circles such a long, long time
Tryin' to say hello, hello!
And we can just let it ride, but you're someone that I'd
Like to get to know

[Chorus:]
I'll meet you halfway, that's better than no way
There must be some way to get it together
And if there's some way, I know that some day
We just might work it out forever

Will there come a day (Will there come a day)
You and I can say (You and I can say)
We can finally see each other?
Will there come a time (Will there come a time)
We can find the time (We can find the time)
To reach out for one another?

I'll meet you halfway, that's better than no way
I'll meet you halfway, that's better than no way

[Repeat and fade]

How can I be sure
In a world that's constantly changin'?
How can I be sure
Where I stand with you?

Whenever I
Whenever I am away from you
I wanna die
'cause you know I wanna stay with you

How do I know?
Maybe you're trying to use me
Flying too high can confuse me
Touch me but don't take me down

Whenever I
Whenever I am away from you
My alibi is tellin' people I don't care for you
Maybe I'm just hanging around
With my head up, upside down
It's a pity
I can't seem to find someone
Who's as pretty 'n' lovely as you

How can I be sure
I really, really, really, wanna kno-o-ow
I really, really, really, wanna kno-o-ow



How's the weather?
Weather or not, we're together
Together we'll see it much better
I love you, I love you forever
You know where I can be found

How can I be sure
In a world that's constantly changing?
How can I be sure?
I'll be sure with you.

I can feel your heartbeat and you didn't even say a word
I can feel your heartbeat and you didn't even say a word
Oh, I know, pretty woman that your love can be heard

You can feel my heartbeat, too
I can tell you're feelin' me
You can feel my heartbeat, too
I can see you feelin' me
Oh, I know, pretty woman that your love can be heard
Oh...

We paint the night, let it shine in the light of our love
This is the night...yeah, this is the night of our love
I'll treat you like a woman, love you like a woman
Lord, I'll prove it baby, I'm a man of my word

Love, love...can'tcha feel your heartbeat
Love, love...I can feel your heartbeat
Love, love...can'tcha feel your heartbeat, love!

We paint the night, let it shine in the light of our love
This is the night...yeah, this is the night of our love
I'll treat you like a woman, love you like a woman
Lord, I'll prove it baby, I'm a man of my word

Love, love...can'tcha feel your heartbeat
Love, love...I can feel your heartbeat
Love, love...can'tcha feel my heartbeat
Love, love...I can feel your heartbeat
Love, love...can'tcha feel your heartbeat
Love, love...I can feel your heartbeat
Love, love...can'tcha feel it?
Love, love...I can feel it!
Love, love...gettin' stronger!
Love, love...Oh, I can feel it!
Love, love...I can feel it!
Love, love...It's gettin' stronger...
Love!

Ba, ba, ba, ba.
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba.
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba.

I'm sleeping
And right in the middle of a good dream
Like all at once I wake up
From something that keeps knockin' at my brain.
Before I go insane I hold my pillow to my head
And spring up in my bed
Screaming out the words I dread:
"I think I love you!"

This morning
I woke up with this feeling
I didn't know how to deal with
And so I just decided to myself
I'd hide it to myself and never talk about it
And didn't I go and shout it
When you walked into my room.
"I think I love you!"

I think I love you.
So what am I so afraid of?
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
A love there is no cure for.

I think I love you.
Isn't that what life is made of?
Though it worries me to say
I've never felt this way.

I don't know what I'm up against.
I don't know what it's all about.
I got so much to think about.

Hey, I think I love you.
So what am I so afraid of?
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
A love there is no cure for.

I think I love you.
Isn't that what life is made of?
Though it worries me to say
I've never felt this way.

Believe me,
You really don't have to worry.
I only want to make you happy
And if you say,
"Hey, go away," I will, but I think better still
I'd better stay around and love you.
Do you think I have a case?
Let me ask you to your face:
Do you think you love me?

I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you

Last night, I turned out the light, lay down and thought about you
I thought about the way that it could be
Two o'clock, wonderin' what I'm doin' here alone without you
So I close my eyes and dream you here to me and...

I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind
I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind

Hello, girl, yes it's five o'clock I know but you just listen
There's something that I've got to let you know
This is you, this pillow that I'm huggin' and I'm kissin'
And one more thing before I let you go...

I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind
I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind

Do dreams come true, well if they do, I'll have you
Not just for a night, but for my whole life through

I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind
I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind

Will there come a day you and I can say
We can finally see each other?
Will there come a time we can find the time
To reach out for one another?

We've been travelin' in circles such a long, long time
Tryin' to say hello, hello!
And we can just let it ride, but you're someone that I'd
Like to get to know

I'll meet you halfway, that's better than no way
There must be some way to get it together
And if there's some way, I know that some day
We just might work it out forever

Will there come a day (Will there come a day)
You and I can say (You and I can say)
We can finally see each other?
Will there come a time (Will there come a time)
We can find the time (We can find the time)
To reach out for one another?

I'll meet you halfway, that's better than no way
I'll meet you halfway, that's better than no way

It's one of those nights
When you turn out the lights
And you sit in the dark
And say to yourself
"I miss her"

It's one of those moods
When your body broods
And you conjure up her picture
And you kiss her

It's one of those things
For the pain it brings
You say to yourself
"Hey couldn't I live without it?"
Well I think so
On the other hand,
I doubt it

Suddenly she's crashing through my mind
Like waves upon the shore
And I nod my head whoa yes love
I'd welcome you again
If you knocked upon my door
If you didn't I'd seek you out love
I'd track you down for sure
Like a thousand times before
Whoa yes love
I'd welcome you again
Like you know I've done before

Yes love
You know I did before
Yes love
You know I did before

So it goes
It's a cold in your nose
It's a pain in the neck
It'll make you a wreck
If it gets ya

It's so insane
Cuz for all the rain
When you ask yourself
"Could you do it again"
You betcha

I hear a voice say
"You got no chance"
And it makes me mad
And I shout
"Oh yeah who says so?"
Well of course not
On the other hand,
I think so

Suddenly she's crashing through my mind
Like waves upon the shore
And I nod my head whoa yes love
I'd welcome you again
If you knocked upon my door
If you didn't I'd seek you out love
I'd track you down for sure
Like a thousand times before
Whoa yes love
I'd welcome you again
Like you know I did before

Yes love
You know I did before
Yes love
You know I did before
Yes love
You know I did before

So I'll never feel your touch again
I'll get used to it
Hearts don't break they just bend
I'll come bouncing back
You barely left a scratch on me

You were nothing
But a little play thing
And your love bite
It was only a sting
Baby when you went
It hardly made a dent in me

It was just a fleshwound in my pride
It aint no tragedy that I can't survive

I'm lyin' to myself every night
Without you baby nothing's been right
No matter what I say
Can't make you go away
I'm lyin' to myself that's the truth
It's killing me being without you
You're the only one
not fooling anyone
I'm lyin' to myself

I won't lie here
Alone in this bed
Broken record
Of your voice in my head
'Cause nothing that you said
Had any real effect on me

There's not a thing that I would change
No not much only everything
Just to have you again

I'm lyin' to myself every night
Without you baby nothing's been right
No matter what I say
Can't make you go away
I'm lyin' to myself

I can't deny it anymore
Gotta get you back in my life
'Cause that's all I've been living for

And I'm lyin' to myself
You're the only one
Not fooling anyone
I been lyin' to myself
No matter what I say
Can't make you go away
I'm lyin' to myself

Don't even say it, baby
'Cause your words cut like a knife
Don't even think it, baby
'Cause I can read everything in your mind

You just don't know how much I'll miss you
Maybe a thousand years or more
So don't tell me that you're leaving
Don't you walk out that door

There's no bridge I wouldn't cross
There's no river that's too wide
If you leave me, I would search for you, baby
Nothin' could keep me away

Don't you deny it, baby
Holding back love can cause you real pain
This is our one chance
So don't lose it, baby

Here comes the rest of your life once again
We gotta grab this with both hands
And we should never let it go, now we've got each other
Oh, I want the world to know

There's no bridge I wouldn't cross
There's no river that's too wide
If you leave me I would search for you, baby
Nothin' could keep me away

And I'll succeed at any cost
There's no bridge I wouldn't cross
All I want is just to be with you, baby
Hold you once again in my arms

Somebody told me, boy
You've got so much to learn
But they didn't know I heard all the lyin'
Done all my cryin', now it's got to be my turn

There's no bridge I wouldn't cross
There's no river that's too wide
If you leave me I would search for you, baby
Nothin' could keep me away

And I'll succeed at any cost
'Cause there's no bridge I wouldn't cross
All I want is just to be with you, baby
Hold you once again in my arms

There's no bridge I wouldn't cross
There's no river that's too wide
If you leave me I would search for you, baby
Nothin' could keep me away

And I'll succeed at any cost
'Cause there's no bridge I wouldn't cross
All I want is just to be with you, baby
Hold you once again in my arms

Are you sleeping my baby?
Just close your eyes and let me run away.
Now, don't cha cry.
I am leaving my sweet baby.
I've been in love with one who's far away.
I can't live a lie.
I've got something inside of me you know I can't hide
And each day since I left her
She's been on my mind.
So take care of yourself and my, my Ricky besides
He's the best friend I had.
I guess this is good-bye.

Are you weeping my baby?
I let you down but I just cannot stay.
I can't live a lie.
Now I am leaving my sweet baby.
I got my ticket, it won't pass me by.
I can't live a lie.
I've got something inside of me you know I can't hide
And each day since I left her
She's been on my mind.
So take care of yourself and my, my Ricky besides
He's the best friend I had.
I guess this is good-bye,
This is good bye.
I guess this is goodbye.

You may call me a rollin' stone, I'm a free born man and I stand alone
I come a-lookin' for a little satisfaction
I don't drive no Cadillac, all I've got's hangin' on my back
But I do believe in a physical attraction
I can warm your coldest night, I'll make ev'rythin' all right

Hooo, rock me baby, let me feel that beat
I said ahooo, rock me baby, right down to my feet
I said ahooo, rock me baby, hold me oh so tight
I said ahooo, rock me baby, rock me thru the night
You better hold me while you can
Or you gonna lose your midnight man
Now come on and rock me, rock me

I was twelve when I left home, ever since I've been on my own
I come a-lookin' for a little recreation
Guess I'll never settle down, it's always been just a one more town
Why I've loved from coast to coast across the nation
I can't promise I'll be true but I'll just see what I can do

Come on hooo, rock me baby, let me feel that beat
I said ahooo, rock me baby, right down to my feet
I said ahooo, rock me baby, hold me oh so tight
I said ahooo, rock me baby, rock me thru the night
You better hold me while you can
Or you gonna lose your midnight man
Now come on and rock me, rock me

Mh, come on and rock me, come on and shock me
Rock me, I'm rollin'
Come on and squeeze me, ooh, you sure can please me, uh-uh
All right now, get down

Hooo, rock me baby, let me feel that beat ...

We've already said 'Goodbye'
Since you gotta go girl
You had better go now
Go now, go now, go now
Before you see me cry
I want you to tell me
Just what you intend to do now
How many times do I have to tell you darlin'
Darlin' I'm still in love with you now
I don't wanna see you go
But darlin' you'd better go now

So long
I don't wanna see you go
But you had better go now
Go now, go now, go now
Don't you even try to tell me
That you really want to see it end this way
'Cause darlin', darlin'
Can't you see I want you to stay
I don't wanna see you go
But darlin' you'd better go now

How can I be sure
In a world that's constantly changin'?
How can I be sure
Where I stand with you?

Whenever I
Whenever I am away from you
I wanna die
'cause you know I wanna stay with you

How do I know?
Maybe you're trying to use me
Flying too high can confuse me
Touch me but don't take me down

Whenever I
Whenever I am away from you
My alibi is tellin' people I don't care for you
Maybe I'm just hanging around
With my head up, upside down
It's a pity
I can't seem to find someone
Who's as pretty 'n' lovely as you

How can I be sure
I really, really, really, wanna kno-o-ow
I really, really, really, wanna kno-o-ow



How's the weather?
Weather or not, we're together
Together we'll see it much better
I love you, I love you forever
You know where I can be found

How can I be sure
In a world that's constantly changing?
How can I be sure?
I'll be sure with you.

As I look back
I can see me lost and searching
Now I found that I can choose, I'm free
(Oh, yeah)
It's so funny I just have to laugh
All my troubles been cut in half

I've been lonely too long
I've been lonely too long
In the past days comin' down
Feel like I can't go on without you
I've been lonely too long
I've been lonely too long

To see me now
Makes it worth the time I've waited
Sure is all I need to make me see
(Oh, yeah)
No wonder I could die
Feel like I'm 'bout ten miles high

I've been lonely too long
I've been lonely too long
In the past days comin' down
Feel like I can't go on without you
I've been lonely too long
I've been lonely too long

You may call me a rollin' stone, I'm a free born man and I stand alone
I come a-lookin' for a little satisfaction
I don't drive no Cadillac, all I've got's hangin' on my back
But I do believe in a physical attraction

I was twelve when I left home, ever since I've been on my own
I come a-lookin' for a little recreation
Guess I'll never settle down, it's always been just a one more town
Why I've loved from coast to coast across the nation
I can't promise I'll be true but I'll just see what I can do

Come on hooo, rock me baby, let me feel that beat
I said ahooo, rock me baby, right down to my feet
I said ahooo, rock me baby, hold me oh so tight
I said ahooo, rock me baby, rock me thru the night
You better hold me while you can
Or you gonna lose your midnight man
Now come on and rock me, rock me

Mh, come on and rock me, come on and shock me
Rock me, I'm rollin'
Come on and squeeze me, ooh, you sure can please me, uh-uh
All right now, get down

Hooo, rock me baby, let me feel that beat ...

I've waited all my life for you
You're the love I was destined to
The good friend that I never knew until you

I felt that I might fall apart
Until you took me into your heart
Then I knew right from the start
We'd get on just fine
And you came just in time

Soft as a summer shower
You fell on my thirsty life
And in my darkest hour
You came and you showed me light
We've loved and we've both been hurt
But promise me that you won't desert
Cause this time it's just, just got to work
I feel it inside
Leave your heart open wide

Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a summer,
Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a time.
I guess I never took the time
To tell you how much I love you,
Now you and the road keep flashing through my mind.
Now you and the road keep flashing through my mind.

I caught a sunrise service on a Sunday in North Dakota,
Imagine you and me singing in a gospel choir.
Spent a rainy night on a river in Oklahoma,
Saw the northern lights on a Minnesota night
And our souls went a little bit higher.

Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a summer,
Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a time.
I guess I never took the time
To tell you how much I love you,
Now you and the road keep flashing through my mind.
Now you and the road keep flashing through my mind.

The old De Soto died on a hill
It couldn't climb in Montana
The kid who bought the wreck said
What the heck, I'll give you thirty five
So we were on our own,
Our thumbs to take us home to California.
By the time we made Denver with our
Truck driving friend we had wheels on fire

Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a summer,
Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a time.
I guess I never took the time
To tell you how much I love you,
Now you and the road keep flashing through my mind.
Now you and the road keep flashing through my mind.

You and the road, you and the road
On my mind.

It's sad to say it
But I think love's gonna end
Once we were lovers
And now we're not even friends

It was good to have you
Near me for a while
But we made each other happy
And we made each other smile

The worst part is the knowing
That my castle in the sky
Fell apart and it's too late
To build it up
Too late to try
You took every dream I planned on
Every dream that tried to stay
Seems I always think about you
Most of all on a rainy day

Just hold you one more time
So I can close my eyes
Remembering how you feel
Before we say goodbye

It was good to have you
Near me for a while
But we made each other happy
And we made each other smile

The worst part is the knowing
That my castle in the sky
Fell apart and it's too late
To build it up
Too late to try
You took every dream I planned on
Every dream that tried to stay
Seems I always think about you
Most of all on a rainy day

The worst part is the knowing
That my castle in the sky
Fell apart and it's too late
To build it up
Too late to try
You took every dream I planned on
Every dream that tried to stay
Seems I always think about you
Most of all on a rainy day

People everywhere seem to think
I won't survive, one day I'll sink
Well, I guess
I value less what they think
Than the song that I sing
And the hope that it brings

Oh...It's a song, a song of love
And to me your heart is a choir
Life is the song
And the theme is love
Give me my share and I'll get by

I can never seem to achieve
All that the world tells me I need
Guess they choose
To see the things that I'm not
But an ace in the hole
Now that much I've got

Oh...It's a song, a song of love
And to me your heart is a choir
Life is the song
And the theme is love
Give me my share and I'll get by

Life is full of lots of happenings
Oh, but they don't mean much
Without you
And I know in the end
If you're my friend
I won't get caught with nothing to do

So, I think I'll just stay the same
Taking what comes and laugh at the rain
And you know
I just might make it through
As long as we keep what's between me and you

Oh...It's a song, a song of love
And to me your heart is a choir
Life is the song
And the theme is love
Give me my share and I'll get by

Baby, has it really been so long
Is my smile so distant
I can feel there's something wrong
Mmm...all those lonely nights
Was I a fool for you

Baby, don't you say it isn't so
Was forgetting me so easy
Was there someone close to hold
Mmm...all those lonely nights
Was I a fool for you

I hold you close
It's not the same
I feel your touch somehow has changed
Did you love just give up on me
Can't you see I need you desperately

After I'd given you everything I had
It wasn't good enough to keep you
To keep you satisfied
After you broke me down a second time
Was I the fool you said you needed
How could you lie
Mmm...how could you lie

Baby, I guess there's nothing left to say
Was I just so blind
To not see it in this way
Mmm...all those lonely nights
I sure was a fool for you

Through all those lonely nights
I sure was a fool for you
Yes, I was baby
Through all those lonely nights
I sure was a fool for you
Through all those lonely nights
I sure was a fool for you

Hey, now woman, warm my soul
Shake the pain that grows inside me
From your love that's grown too old
I want you more
Running, jumping, leaping, hopping
Don't turn to go
Don't you turn, oh no

Can't you see me calling your name
In the middle of a dark, cold night
I need you so
Won't you please believe me when I say
'Hey girl, I love you so'
Wait till the morning comes
Never leave the heart you stole
Never leave me just some more
You're everything I ever wanted even more
Sick, stoned sick sleeping in the corner
Praying to the mighty Lord
Don't you turn to go
Don't turn, oh no

Can't you see me calling your name
In the middle of a dark, cold night
I need you so
Won't you please believe me when I say
'Hey girl, I love you so'
Wait till the morning comes
Never leave the heart you stole
Never leave me just some more
You're everything I ever wanted even more
Sick, stoned sick sleeping in the corner
Praying to the mighty Lord
Don't you turn to go
Don't turn, oh no

Cherish is the word I use to describe
All the feeling that I have
Hiding here for you inside
You don't know how many times
I wished that I had told you
You don't know how many times
I wished that I could hold you
You don't know how many times
I've wished that I could mold you into someone
Who could cherish me as much as I cherish you

Perish is the word that more than applies
To the hope in my heart each time I realize
That I am not going to be the one
To share your dreams
That I am not going to be the one
To share your schemes
That I am not going to be the one
To share what seems to be the life
That you could cherish me as much as I do yours

Oh, I'm beginning to think
That man has never found
The words that could make you want me
That have the right amount of letters
Just the right sound
That could make you hear
Make you see
That you're driving me out of my mind

Oh I could say I need you
But then you'd realize that I want you
Just like a thousand other guys
Who say they'd love you
With all the rest of their lives
When all they wanted was to
Touch your face, your hands
And gaze into your eyes

Cherish is the word I use to describe
All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside
You don't know how many times
I wished that I had told you
You don't know how many times
I wished that I could hold you
You don't know how many times
I wished that I could mold you into someone
That could cherish me as much as I cherish you

And I do
Cherish you
And I do
I cherish you
Yes I do
I cherish you

Could it be forever
Or is my mind just rambling on
Well I touched you once and I kissed you once
And now I feel like you're mine

Well I feel like you're mine and I see in your face
I'm not wrong to have these feelings
Well I feel like you're mine, I've never known a time before
That's had so many meanings

Could it be forever
Or am I just wasting time
Well I don't think so because you let me know
You make me feel like you're mine

Well I feel like you're mine and I can't remember
When the feelings have been stronger
And all I know is I can't let go
I wanna be with you I wanna be with you just a little while longer

All my feelings come together
All of me is here
Never know when I felt better
Cause I know this won't disappear

But

Could it be forever or is my mind just rambling on
Well maybe it is and if it is
Well then I'll be moving along

Well I feel like you're mine
And I see in your face I'm not wrong to have these feelings
Well I feel like you're mine and I've never known a time before
That's had so many meanings

I can feel your heartbeat and you didn't even say a word
I can feel your heartbeat and you didn't even say a word
Oh, I know, pretty woman that your love can be heard

You can feel my heartbeat, too
I can tell you're feelin' me
You can feel my heartbeat, too
I can see you feelin' me
Oh, I know, pretty woman that your love can be heard
Oh...

We paint the night, let it shine in the light of our love
This is the night...yeah, this is the night of our love
I'll treat you like a woman, love you like a woman
Lord, I'll prove it baby, I'm a man of my word

Love, love...can'tcha feel your heartbeat
Love, love...I can feel your heartbeat
Love, love...can'tcha feel your heartbeat, love!

We paint the night, let it shine in the light of our love
This is the night...yeah, this is the night of our love
I'll treat you like a woman, love you like a woman
Lord, I'll prove it baby, I'm a man of my word

Love, love...can'tcha feel your heartbeat
Love, love...I can feel your heartbeat
Love, love...can'tcha feel my heartbeat
Love, love...I can feel your heartbeat
Love, love...can'tcha feel your heartbeat
Love, love...I can feel your heartbeat
Love, love...can'tcha feel it?

Love, love...I can feel it!
Love, love...It's gettin' stronger...
Love!

Ba, ba, ba, ba.
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba.
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba.

I'm sleeping
And right in the middle of a good dream
Like all at once I wake up
From something that keeps knockin' at my brain.
Before I go insane I hold my pillow to my head
And spring up in my bed
Screaming out the words I dread:
"I think I love you!"

This morning
I woke up with this feeling
I didn't know how to deal with
And so I just decided to myself
I'd hide it to myself and never talk about it
And didn't I go and shout it
When you walked into my room.
"I think I love you!"

I think I love you.
So what am I so afraid of?
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
A love there is no cure for.

I think I love you.
Isn't that what life is made of?
Though it worries me to say
I've never felt this way.

I don't know what I'm up against.
I don't know what it's all about.
I got so much to think about.

Hey, I think I love you.
So what am I so afraid of?
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
A love there is no cure for.

I think I love you.
Isn't that what life is made of?
Though it worries me to say
I've never felt this way.

Believe me,
You really don't have to worry.
I only want to make you happy
And if you say,
"Hey, go away," I will, but I think better still
I'd better stay around and love you.
Do you think I have a case?
Let me ask you to your face:
Do you think you love me?

I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you.
Oh, I think I love you

Last night, I turned out the light, lay down and thought about you
I thought about the way that it could be
Two o'clock, wonderin' what I'm doin' here alone without you
So I close my eyes and dream you here to me and...

I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind
I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind

Hello, girl, yes it's five o'clock I know but you just listen
There's something that I've got to let you know
This is you, this pillow that I'm huggin' and I'm kissin'
And one more thing before I let you go...

I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind
I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind

Do dreams come true, well if they do, I'll have you
Not just for a night, but for my whole life through

I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind
I woke up in love this morning
I woke up in love this morning
Went to sleep with you on my mind

Will there come a day you and I can say
We can finally see each other?
Will there come a time we can find the time
To reach out for one another?

We've been travelin' in circles such a long, long time
Tryin' to say hello, hello!
And we can just let it ride, but you're someone that I'd
Like to get to know

I'll meet you halfway, that's better than no way
There must be some way to get it together
And if there's some way, I know that some day
We just might work it out forever

Will there come a day (Will there come a day)
You and I can say (You and I can say)
We can finally see each other?
Will there come a time (Will there come a time)
We can find the time (We can find the time)
To reach out for one another?

I'll meet you halfway, that's better than no way
I'll meet you halfway, that's better than no way

Are you sleeping my baby?
Just close your eyes and let me run away.
Now, don't cha cry.
I am leaving my sweet baby.
I've been in love with one who's far away.
I can't live a lie.
I've got something inside of me you know I can't hide
And each day since I left her
She's been on my mind.
So take care of yourself and my, my Ricky besides
He's the best friend I had.
I guess this is good-bye.

Are you weeping my baby?
I let you down but I just cannot stay.
I can't live a lie.
Now I am leaving my sweet baby.
I got my ticket, it won't pass me by.
I can't live a lie.
I've got something inside of me you know I can't hide
And each day since I left her
She's been on my mind.
So take care of yourself and my, my Ricky besides
He's the best friend I had.
I guess this is good-bye,
This is good bye.
I guess this is goodbye.

You may call me a rollin' stone, I'm a free born man and I stand alone
I come a-lookin' for a little satisfaction
I don't drive no Cadillac, all I've got's hangin' on my back
But I do believe in a physical attraction
I can warm your coldest night, I'll make ev'rythin' all right

Hooo, rock me baby, let me feel that beat
I said ahooo, rock me baby, right down to my feet
I said ahooo, rock me baby, hold me oh so tight
I said ahooo, rock me baby, rock me thru the night
You better hold me while you can
Or you gonna lose your midnight man
Now come on and rock me, rock me

I was twelve when I left home, ever since I've been on my own
I come a-lookin' for a little recreation
Guess I'll never settle down, it's always been just a one more town
Why I've loved from coast to coast across the nation
I can't promise I'll be true but I'll just see what I can do

Come on hooo, rock me baby, let me feel that beat
I said ahooo, rock me baby, right down to my feet
I said ahooo, rock me baby, hold me oh so tight
I said ahooo, rock me baby, rock me thru the night
You better hold me while you can
Or you gonna lose your midnight man
Now come on and rock me, rock me

Mh, come on and rock me, come on and shock me
Rock me, I'm rollin'
Come on and squeeze me, ooh, you sure can please me, uh-uh
All right now, get down

Hooo, rock me baby, let me feel that beat ...

I got a reputation
Know the right things to do
But I ain't got no education
When it comes to lovin' you
So as in you, I guess i'm just a fool
'Cause I'm a fool in love, Baby
Just a fool in love, you know babe, a fool in love
Just a fool in love

You for inspiration
Kinda get over confident
But I can't understand why
I Can't have your love, It's heaven sent
I never learned at school
Guess I'm just a fool

'Cause I'm a fool in love, baby
Just a fool in love
I'm a fool in love for you
I'm a fool in love

This heart of mine's been lyin' here
Been empty now, for just so long
And if you gave me half a chance
Never do you wrong

Babe I won't let you down
No, I won't let you down
Because I'm a fool in love, Baby
Just a fool in love
I'm a fool in love, Baby
(repeat)

I said woah woah woah
You pack it up and go
Before you tell me baby
You don't love me anymore

Just when I thought I had it made
Oh, it starts all over again
Goodbye blues they come and got me, Lord

I said them goodbye blues, the goodbye blues they got me, Lord
Oh, yeah.
I said them goodbye blues, the goodbye blues they got me, Lord
Oh, yeah.

I said woah woah woah
You told me that you loved me this time
What's that you say?
That you've gone and changed your mind

Just when I thought I might win
The partin' starts all over again
Goodbye blues they come and got me Lord

I said them goodbye blues the goodbye blues
They got me Lord, oh yeah
I said the goodbye blues the goodbye blues
They got me oh, oh yeah
I said the goodbye blues the goodbye blues

No one's gonna take this heart away from me
No one's gonna go and cause more misery
No one's gonna take this heart
No one's gonna break this heart
No one's gonna take this heart

Fell out of a dream
Bendin' out in the streets
Lost love just pulled the rug out under me
My resistance was low
With only bruises to show
Just a fool that turned another cheek again

No one's gonna take this heart
No one's gonna break this heart
No one's gonna take this heart
No one's gonna break this heart
No one's gonna take this heart
No one's gonna take this heart
No one's gonna take this heart

No one's gonna take this heart away from me
No one's gonna take this heart away from me
No one's gonna take this heart
No one's gonna take this heart
No one's gonna take this heart

No one's gonna take this heart away from me

Oh, baby don't you let me down tomorrow
Holding hands we both abandon sorrow
Oh, for a chance to get away tomorrow.

Hey, baby's got a lazy day on Sunday
Here's a pound, we hang around 'til Monday
Oh, baby don't you let me down on Sunday.

Bring a bag of bread and cheese
And find a shady spot beneath the trees
Catch a breath of country air
And run your pretty fingers through my hair
(Tomorrow) when we both abandon sorrow.

Oh, baby don't you let me down tomorrow
Through the week we beg and steal and borrow
Oh, for a chance to get away tomorrow.

Honey, pray for sunny skies
So I can speak to rainbows in your eyes
Let's just hope the weather man
Is feeling fine and doesn't spoil our plan
(Tomorrow) when we both abandon sorrow.

Oh, baby, baby don't you let me down tomorrow
Holding hands we both abandon sorrow
Oh, baby don't you let me down tomorrow
Oh, for a chance to get away tomorrow.

Baby, don't let me down tomorrow
Baby, don't let me down tomorrow
Baby, don't let me down tomorrow
Baby, don't let me down tomorrow.

Oh, don't let me down
Baby, don't let me down tomorrow
Baby, don't let, let me down tomorrow
Baby, don't let me down tomorrow.
