The Best Of Wilson Phillips

You can't hide it from me
Admit it baby
'cause i'm wise to your disguise
I've seen you love me with your eyes

Even if you think i'm a fool and i just can't tell
Then you don't know me well
Won't you come over here and break the ice
It would be so nice

It's what you want when you're around me
You're a little bit shy, and i feel the need
And i can tell that you're happy you found me
Just give it up...

Chorus:
Why wait around when you know what you're feeling (give it up)
I look through your eyes
I can see that you want somebody (give it up)
It could feel so good to get into it.
Give it up! give it up! you want it baby.
Give it up! give it up! you know you got me.
Come on, come on, come on and give it up.

I can't, i can't lie to you
Now we can all tell stories so come over here and love me. uh-huh
Even if you think i'm a fool and i just can't tell
Sorry i know you well.
And i know you will

Come over here and love me
It's what you want when you're around me
You're a little bit shy, and i feel the need
And i can tell that you're happy you found me
Just give it up...

(chorus)

So dream your way into my life
'cause baby i'll give you tonight
I'll bring all your pictures to life
Give it up! give it up! give it up! give it up!
Give it up... (ooh god) give it up... just give it up...give it up

Give it up! give it up (yeah!)
Give it up! give it up!
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, give it up
Give it up! won't you give it up baby tonight?

I wish i had all you ever wanted
I'd give it right to you
But i don't have it

How could i ever find it,
The strength to let you go
'cause i don't have it
When will i have it?

And it goes, and it goes on
And it goes on

You won't see me cry
You know i decided
That i'm gonna pull myself together
And find a way to fight it
I'm gonna have to hide it
You won't see me cry
You won't see me cry

I've got no choice but to face it
I have to let you know that i don't like it
My love is good for someone
And it may take some time
But i will find him
Why should i waste it?

When i go,
When i go on
I will go on

You won't see me cry
You know i decided
That i'm gonna pull myself together
And find a way to fight it
Even if i have to hide it
You won't see me cry
You won't see me cry
You won't see me...(oh ah uh)

I finally decided
And i found the way to fight it...

So you won't see me...cry
You won't see me cry

If you never plan to come out of your shell, you're never gonna get well.
I understand your reasons not to.
What you don't know is what you're afraid of.
And i'm afraid of it too
But can i even talk to you again?

Oh part of me wants to call you up, and talk to you like a friend.
And there's a part of me that wants to shut you out
And never see your face again.

Chorus:
How can we be like enemies when we're only flesh and blood?
What does it take to make your heart bleed, daddy aren't we enough?
You can get through there's nothing stopping you from getting to us
No one can take a way the fact that we're only...flesh and blood
For years i've been following your case, it's the only time i see your face
And we've learned to live without you.
Who you don't know is who you're afraid of
And we're afraid of you too
But will we ever talk to you again?

Oh part of me wants to call you up, just talk to you like a friend
There's a part of me that wants to shut you out
And never see your face again.

(chorus)

I want to make you laugh, and i want a chance to know you better.
I want to hear you sing beside me now.
We're just like you.

(chorus)

I want to make you laugh, i want a chance to know you better
I want to hear you sing beside me now... flesh and blood
I want to make you laugh (want to make you laugh), and i want a chance to know you better
I want to hear you sing beside me now
I'm a part of you, and i miss you.

A song for you, for only you.

Softly, love is standing here with its demands
(tell me what you want from me, you want from me)
Slowly, i think i'm letting go of all my plans
(tell me where we're goin' to, we're goin' to)

Why, why am i afraid to give into this
Why am i afraid?

Chorus:
This doesn't have to be love
But it's all i can feel, it's all that i fear.
This doesn't have to be anything at all,
So hard to fall (from this high above)
But do we have to call it love?

I hold back, from everything i really want to say
(should i let my guards down, my guards down, my guards down)
I don't, i don't make commitments that could break
(maybe it's just too late, it's just too late)

I, i'm so afraid to give into this
I'm so afraid, oh

(chorus)

Need a little time to think things through, baby
Do i really want to give myself, give all myself to you, now?
I can't believe it's happening so fast
'cause i don't want to bring back what i left in the past, no.

(chorus)

So hard to fall...in love
This doesn't have to be...love
(love, love is all i feel...your love is what i fear)
Love me...love me
So hard to fall
So very hard to fall.

Fade

Not so long ago we were so in phase
You and i could never forget the days
But then the fire seemed to flicker
Cold wind came and it carried us away
But we'll get back someday, baby

The dream is still alive
Look here in my eyes
Can you see what i'm feeling?
The dream is still alive
The one of you and i
And my heartache is healing
I couldn't let it die
No i knew it would survive
The dream is still alive

Not so long ago in a purple haze
People dreamed out loud they were not afraid
They stopped the war but not the dying
Some got a little bit lost along the way
But somehow we're here today
And we say

The dream is still alive
After all this time
The flame keeps on burning
The dream is still alive
The one of you and i
And my heartache is healing
I couldn't let it die
No i knew it would survive
The dream is, the dream is still alive

Oh yeah..

The dream is still alive
Look here in my eyes
Can you see what i'm feeling
The dream is still alive
The one of you and i
And my heartache is healing
I couldn't let it die
For all the times we tried
The dream is still alive
