Well I'm sittin' here in this lonely hotel room The music's still ringin' in my ears And I'm wonderin' just how long I've been away this time But every time I cry Those days I can't remember seem like years And I want to get back in your arms again Darling, get back in your arms again When you're so far away it hurts more each day I want to get back in your arms again ... Umm hmm ... Well I turned on the TV just an hour ago The same old movies, talk-shows and quiz games I've seen pretty girls in a hundred different cities And I can't remember one To me their faces all look just the same I just want to get back in your arms again Darling, get back in your arms again When you're so far away it hurts more each day I want to get back in your arms again Yes I want to get back in your arms again Darling, get back in your arms again When you're so far away it hurts more each day I want to get back in your arms again ... Umm ... Ooh oo oo ooh.
How can you say That you'll never love again And the scars are so deep That they'll never really mend Can't you see, Love is sometimes a game that lets you down Leaving you hurt inside but there's still the next time around How can you see When your eyes are still filled with tears And the pain in your heart Feels like it could last for years Oh I know, Love is sometimes a game that makes you cry Leaving you standing all alone and wondering why But it's only a game, A game we all play sometimes Yes it's only a game, And games can be so unkind Only a game, Sometimes it's confusing Only a game, But it hurts when you're losing One day you'll find The pain doesn't hurt at all You can face each new day, You're no longer scared to fall And you'll see Love is sometimes a game that takes you high Taking away the pain of all the tears you cry But it's only a game, A game we all play sometimes Yes it's only a game, And games can be so unkind Only a game, A game played by wise men and fools Yes it's only a game And nobody knows the rules Oh oh ooh oo, only a game Oh oh ooh oo, only a game Oh oh ooh oo, only a game Oh oh ooh oo, only a game
Well the night she came It was pouring with rain And she was soaked to the skin I hadn't seen her in two long years I said 'Why don't you come on in?' And while her clothes were drying She kept on crying She told me she'd come back for good She asked me to give her one more chance And like a fool I said I would You know I reached out to her with an helping hand But all I got was an empty glove She was just looking for shelter But I was looking for love And I really thought she might change her ways But a vulture can't change into a dove She was just looking for shelter But I was looking for love ... oh ... oh ... oh Well after a while She managed to smile But her eyes were still a little red She took me by the hand and led me upstairs She said 'Why don't we go to bed?' She told me she'd been a fool To treat me so cruel And she was sorry for what she'd done When I went to sleep she was in my arms But when I woke up in the morning she'd gone You know I reached out to her with a helping hand And all I got was an empty glove She was just looking for shelter But I was looking for love And I really thought she might change her ways But a vulture can't change into a dove She was just looking for shelter But I was looking for love ... umm She was just looking for shelter, Just looking for shelter She was just looking for shelter But I was looking for love Just looking for shelter Just looking for shelter She was just looking for shelter But I was looking for love Just looking for shelter Just looking for shelter Just looking for shelter I was looking for love Just looking for shelter (Yes she was) Just looking for shelter (Oh you know she was) Just looking for shelter And I was looking for love Just looking for shelter (Ooh) Just looking for shelter (Ooh) Just looking for shelter I was looking for love Just looking for shelter ...
Anna says it's only for a while I say I need her but it only makes her smile She says it's all the same to her, It's just a game to her To keep me waiting Anna tells me secrets with her eyes And all those promises might just as well be lies I don't know what she wants from me Or what she wants to be But I wish I knew Anna, don't you really care at all The way I care for you? Anna, don't you run away again 'Cause I don't know what I'd do Anna, don't you know it just won't last What's now the future will someday be the past And when all your friends have let you down You know I'll still be around If you need someone Anna, don't you really care at all The way I care for you? Anna, don't you run away again 'Cause I don't know what I'd do Anna, don't you really care at all Oh, the way I care for you? Anna, don't you run away again 'Cause I don't know what I'd do Anna ... ooh o-o ooh oo oo ooh Anna ... ooh o-o ooh oo oo ooh

Never saw the sun rise in the morning Or goin' down at the close of the day Maybe I was far too busy worrying Maybe I just looked the other way And I wonder why I never saw it there before When it was oh so plain to see No I just don't know how I never saw it there before Just how blind can one man be? Never saw tall trees reaching to the sky Only saw the dead leaves on the ground Only saw the darkness here inside of me Never saw the wonder all around And I wonder why I never saw it there before When it was oh so plain to see No I just don't know how I never saw it there before Just how blind can one man be? Never saw the smile on my baby's face Couldn't see the love shining in her eye Never saw the tears rolling down her cheeks When she was waving me goodbye And I wonder why I never saw them there before When they were oh so plain to see No I just don't know how I never saw them there before Just how blind can one man be? Oh yeah Just how blind can one man be? Oh yeah Just how blind can one man be?
It's been a long long time I know I never could explain just why I had to go Something inside of me told me I should run And ever since that day I've been running from your love And as I ran from town to town Your memory followed me and always tracked me down Each time I closed my eyes I could see your face Always asking why I was running from your love But now I realize that I was wrong To be frightened by a love that seemed so strong And if you'll take me back this time I'll stay There's no reason now for me to run away From your love I don't have much to give it's true But everything I have I want to share with you We can forget the past while we're making up For all that wasted time I spent running from your love 'Cause now I realize that I was wrong To be frightened by a love that seemed so strong And if you'll take me back this time I'll stay There's no reason now for me to run away From your love
