1. _ Valerie
Valerie, ooh yeah
We were laughing, and hangin' 'round some hotel bar
And we were so young, and now i wonder where you are
'cause that was years ago, but how was i to know we'd part
Don't wanna hear you say, you don't know me, valerie
There is somethin', somethin' that you gotta know
And valerie you were the first, though i never told you so
You were the main event, you didn't need to steal the show
I'm telling you, you don't know me
Valerie - do you remember me, when we were wild and free
Valerie - do you remember me - do you remember
I'm recalling all the crazy things we've done
Hey but when your folks found out, they said that we were way too young
That was way back when, maybe it will be again
Don't wanna hear you say, you don't know me
Valerie - do you remember me, when we were wild and free
Valerie - do you remember me - do you remember, yeah
(solo)
Do you remember me - ooh yeah - when we were wild and free
Valerie - do you remember me - just tell me how you feel
Valerie - do you remember me, when we were wild and free
Yeah, valerie - do you remember me - just tell me how you feel
Do you remember me - oh valerie - when we were wild and free
Valerie - do you remember me, just tell me how you feel...

2. _ If I'm Sleeping
I saw you 'cross the crowded room, you were lookin' my way
I don't believe in lady luck, or what the cards portray
But i could see your shining light, and i'm in disarray
Chorus:
If i'm sleeping, don't wake me up, if i'm sleeping
If i'm sleeping, don't wake me up, if i'm sleeping
I thought i'd better break the ice, and started moving your way
I lost direction, the room got crowded, so i must have gone astray
I still don't know how it happened, there's only me to blame
Chorus
I don't understand it, what is happening, what is happening
It's not the way we planned it, what is happening, take it away
(solo)
I don't understand it, what is happening, what is happening
It's not the way we planned it, what is happening, so take it away
Chorus
If i'm sleeping, don't wake me up, if i'm sleeping, leave me alone
If i'm sleeping, if i'm sleeping, why don't you leave me alone...

3. _ This Love
I know you're not just a pretty face, you've got style, you've got grace
But i do need to know you a little more
I've seen your picture as a little girl, before the woman in you uncurled
But i do need to show you a little more
This love will last us forever, this love is gonna stay true
I know you've got what it's gonna take
And you've got a heart and it won't break
But i do need to show you a little more
And i've got this feelin', it's so much like pain
You've got me reelin', but i still can't explain
I wanna show you, baby, just a little more
Chorus:
This love will last us forever, this love is gonna stay true
This love will keep us together, this love, it's long overdue
Yeah!
(solo)
This child, this girl, this woman that i dream about
She knows that i know, this love i couldn't live without
Chorus
This love

4. _ Tell It Like It Is
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
You got me cornered, there's no getting out alive
So wait a minute, woman, i need to switch out that light
We're a bad match, babe, you never know what's good for you
There's somethin' not right, i'm gonna tell you what to do
For 24 hours, you been comin' on so strong
Baby, i'm gettin' nervous, and pretty soon i'm gonna prove you wrong
I've gotta tell it like it is - i know it's down to me

Hey we've come a long way, babe, there's nothin', nothin' i won't do
And well i warn you tonight, my love is hot, i'm comin' for you
For 24 hours, you've been puttin' me on

5. _ Long Walk
I need a long walk, with someone who knows what to do
I need a long talk, i need a helping hand to pull me through
I need a tall drink, with somebody who cares, i need someone here for company
It's time to rethink and somehow find a way to put an end to this mystery
See i don't know, the pain won't go
And the hurt inside is getting so damn hard to hide
So now i pay the price, i wonder how much it's gonna take
I've gotta roll the dice, and try to take all this heartache
But i still don't know, the pain won't go
And the hurt inside is getting so damn hard to hide
I gotta work it out, 'cause my heart is still racing, racing away
Work it out, 'cause my heart is still breaking, hey
So now i'll take this long walk, i don't want anybody listenin'
'cause i really wanna pour it out, and all went out without ever giving in
But i still don't know, the pain won't go
I'm still hurting inside and it's so damn hard to hide
You gotta help me work it out, 'cause my heart is still racing, racing away
Work it out, 'cause my heart, my heart is breaking away
I've gotta work this out, 'cause my heart is still racing away
Yeah, work it out, 'cause my heart, it's so much a part of me
Work it out - gotta work it out
My heart is still racing - and i'm wasting away
Work it out - i've gotta work it out...

6. _ That Girl

7. _ Burning Up
Hold onto a life-line
spinning uncontrollably down
Wait for someone to save me
I need you more than ever now
I wait for a sign
Please read my mind
Because I’m loosing myself inside this rat race of time
How many poor men would lie when survival is on the line?
How many pregnant women would kill the thing that lives within?
Holding onto what you love is hard because it’s burning up, burning up slowly
Burning up, yea burning up slowly now
Drift, like wood in the ocean
try not to let myself drown
Reach for someone to save me I need you more than ever now
I wait for a sign
And it warps my mind
Because I’m loosing myself inside this rat race of time
How many poor men would lie when survival is on the line?
How many pregnant women would kill the thing that lives within?
Holding onto what you love is hard because it’s burning up, burning up slowly
Burning up, yea burning up slowly now

8. _ Fame And Fortune
Sittin' in the back of a limousine, feelin' just like a king
All the girls come runnin' to you, you're the latest thing
Sittin' up there at the top of the charts, lookin' like mr. cool
You take all the money, steal their hearts, they'll come runnin' to you
Your fame and your fortune, look what it brought you
All your fame and your fortune, you better take a look around
With your fame and your fortune, careful who you talk to
Or the fame and your fortune, watch it all tumble down, yeah, oh listen now
Now you're lookin' for inspiration, somethin' to say
When you find that it don't come easy, you find them running away
You had it all in the palm of your hand, and let it slip away
You made it big, ooh so big, and then you threw it all away
All your fame and your fortune, look what it brought you
Fame and your fortune, hey you better take another look
At your fame and your fortune, it set you up, then it caught you
Fame and your fortune, surely gonna let you down, hey tell me now
(solo)
All your fame and your fortune, look what it brought you
Take your fame and your fortune, wait and take a look around
For your fame and your fortune, who do you talk to
'bout your fame and your fortune, as it all comes tumbling down
Fame and your fortune, fame and your fortune, yes all come tumbling down
Fame and your fortune, fame and your fortune, all comes tumbling down...

9. _ When We Made Love
Standin' there, a shadow in the hall
I'm hopin' that it might be you, but it wasn't anyone at all
I can still remember the way things were
If i could only bring you back, then i wouldn't need to say a word
When we made love, it felt so strong, i remember
We were so much in love, where did our love go wrong
Remembering the things we used to say
The memories are drifting by, but the pain is here to stay
And it's no illusion, i'm a lock without a key
I'm only livin' half a life, without you here with me
When we made love, a love that felt so strong, i still remember
We were so deep in love, where did our love go wrong
(solo)
I can feel every touch again, as real as it is crazy
And i kiss every kiss again, so tender they amaze me
I live through the end again, feeling like i'm dying
And then i touch my cheek, realize i'm crying
When we made love, a love so strong, and i remember
We were so deep in love, so tell me, where did our love go wrong
When we made love, we belong together
It's those nights i'm dreaming of, they'll stay with me, they'll last forever
When we made love

10. _ Hold On My Heart
I recall in '82, there was only me to talk to
I was in my lonely world, and then i found someone to walk to
I remember every second of every day, but there was something not right
And as day leads to night, over and over again
Well it seems so long ago, that there were two of us together
But it seems that love don't last, and now it's true of us forever
If only life would go the way that you want it to
Oh but the feeling inside, that i know i can't hide
Is starting all over again, and baby, you know
Chorus:
You got a hold on my heart, you got a hold on my heart
You know it gets stronger, the longer you keep us apart
You got a hold on my heart, a serious hold on my heart
I try to deny it, but baby, that's the hardest part
When i look back on those days, it's just a memory forever
If only life would go the way that you want it to
But when i get this feelin' inside, i know i can't hide
It's starting all over again
Chorus repeats out
