When something is wrong with my baby

Something is wrong with me

And if i know she's worried

Then i would feel that same misery

We've been through so much together

We stand as one and that's what makes it better

When something is wrong with my baby

Something is wrong with me



Just what she means to me, now

Oh you just wouldn't, you just wouldn't understand

People can't say she's no good

But oh she's my woman and i know i'm her man

And if she's got a problem

Oh oh i know, i know i've got to help her solve 'em

When something is wrong with my baby

Something is wrong with me

Sing it again

When something is wrong with my baby

Something is wrong with me...

I saw you standing and i felt your rage

Like a dark cloud on a crowded stage

You were talking thru the smoke in your fantasy

I know you girl i know what to believe

Maybe things ain't been so good at home

And the people that you love never cared at all

You wanna run away don't care where you go

You wanna run away that's all you know

Believe it's alright to fantasize

And say the words you think will satisfy me

But you know better than that

'cause you know what's a lie

You're living in dreamtime baby

It's time to wake up

You're living in dreamtime baby

It's time to shape up

In your dream it's overcast

Rain comes down movin' your way fast

You wanna run away don't care where you go

You wanna run away that's all you know

Turn a corner then you see a door

Walk on thru throw yourself on the floor

When you're looking up it's no surprise

Standing there is a man with movie star eyes

Think he's gonna take care of you

The man with the plan that'll see you thru

I say there ain't no way

'cause i know he's a lie

You're living in dreamtime baby

It's time to wake up

You're living in dreamtime baby

It's time to shape up

I never saw anybody fall apart so fast

Living in dreamtime you know it ain't gonna last

Never saw anybody think she's so right and be so wrong

Living in dreamtime

It's hard to carry on

I like to read and i like to write

But you could persuade me to put the book down tonight

Just please don't ask to be a song heroine

It's not that easy just to stick you in, stick you in

Oh babe, i know you're right

But there's no time and it's not the night

I'd have to face you again and again

Although you know i'd like to stick you in, stick you in

They're all sacred songs

They're not easily won

You know the words just seem to live on

The thoughts are sacred

Though the sound is profane

But this and that you know they're

One and the same

One and the same

One and the one and the same

You never know how you're gonna end

I start out hard and i end up thin

You waste your time but you occasionally score

But you can't tell from what went down before, down before

Oh babe, do you see my point?

There's just no time and it's not the night

I'd have to face you again and again

Although you know i'd like to stick it in, stick it in

They're all sacred songs

They're not easily won

You know the words just seem to live on

The thoughts are sacred

Though the sound is profane

But this and that you know they're

One and the same

One and the same

One and the one and the same

Whatever happened to you

The one that was so beautiful

I could count on you to make my life a little brighter

I always thought you were built to last

But i never saw anything fall apart so fast

You were born in freedom

To be a slave to your inhibitions

Inventing excuses and proving the right to back up your condition

But a soul like that ain't tied too tight

And it's liable to scatter all over the night

Seasons change

Some people get old and die

Great cities are built up and torn down

But i see you're still alive

Seasons change

Some people get old and die

Great cities are built up and torn down

So how could you survive

I'm not asking for much

Only for time to stop

And history to go unrecorded

And people not to be people

People not to be people

People not to be people

People not to be people not to b

It's afternoon in the homeroom and they're about to let you go.
And the locker slam on the plan you had tonight.
You've been messing around with a boyfriend maybe better left alone.
There's a wise guy that you know could put you right.

In the lot the boy that's idling by doesn't rev your heart.
Cause it's only lonely spots he shares with you.
And the long halls and the gray walls are gonna split apart.
Believe it or not there's life after high school.

The student body's got a bad reputation.
What they need is adult education.
Back to school it's a bad situation.
But what you want is an adult education.

The teacher don't know about how to deal with the student body.
And the underclassmen are flashing hot and cool.
All your girlfriends care about the watch you wear and they're talkin' about it.
Believe it or not there's life after high school.

They're calling it a preparation.
You're waiting for a separation.
You're nothing but another odd number,
Memories that you won't remember.
So you got a little education.
And a lot of dedication.
But you want a little night school.
Maybe some of it will rub off on you.
The boys are busy in the mirrors.
Trying to imitate their heroes.
You make it with a false surrender.
More memories you won't remember.
The senior with the junior miss's
I wonder what the junior wishes.
That she could graduate to adult.
That she could graduate to adult kisses.

Babs and babs lay dreaming in a four poster bed

Arm in arm, head to head, babs and babs

Babs said, "whatcha thinking?"

She said, "nothing

But i never do 'cause i leave it up to you"

Babs looked out the window

Saw the moon and the sky

She saw the clouds drifting by

Voices crying and sighing and dying but she said nothing

"look out on the lawn, there's a moon out tonight

There's a moon out tonight, can'tcha see?"

"silver dreams don't move me or your talk of the stars

And this isn't the time or place to make a fool of me.

No one wants to hear you when you're slipping away

And the light of your day always shows up the strength of your vision."

But she said nothing.

So babs said "don't you worry, i'll take good care of you

You're lack of feeling's a rotten thing

But i'll show you what to do.

Girl, you've got to get away

Girl, you've got to feel, oh, yeah."

Babs said "don't you patronize me, i'm fine the way i am

At least i know what's happening

And i know just where i stand.

You live alone you die alone

When your dreams all fade away, oh, yeah."

Never compromising, never see eye to eye

So they turn, with a sigh, babs and babs

Have to be together like the night and the day

So they might as well stay the best of friends.

Locked in love we leave them with the moon in the sky

With the clouds drifting by

Voices crying and sighing and dying and we say nothing

She said nothing

Looking back over my years i guess i shedded some tears

I told myself time and time again

This time i'm gonna win

But in every fight things ain't right, i'am losing again

Take a fool to lose twice and start all over again



I think i'd better let it go

It looks like another love tko

I think i'd better let it go

Looks like another love tko



Tried to take control of love, love took control of me

Because you lose all thought, sense of time and have a change of mind

Takin' the bumps and the burises of all the things of a two-time loser

Try to hold on, faith is gone, it's just another sad song



I think it's time to let it go

Feels like another love tko

I think it's time to let it go

Feels like another love tko



I think i'd better let it go tko

I think i'd better let it go tko

The light from your star is glowing

Yeah, i see you in the magazine

Your face seems older now, more knowing

But i prefer a woman to a teenage queen

The wine and the confusion

It's your game and you play it so cool

That night seems like an illusion

In your hotel room

German eyes, blonde disguise

Never really knew who i was talking to

But if you're supposed to be such a mystery

Why was it so easy for me to be with you

Why was it so easy for me to be with you

Too much time has come between us

And the sad words that i hear you say

Must mean you don't hold me inside you

But i guess it couldn't go any other way

That night is so far behind us

The words are changed and so is the time

I only hope that you think of me

In a hotel room

Oh those eyes, blonde disguise

Never really knew who i was talking to

But if you're supposed to be such a mystery

Why was it so easy for me to be with you

Why was it so easy for me to be with you

I forgot just how to feel

City scene ain't no big deal

Soul deep so ya say

None of that takes my breath away

Oh i always seem to see

Both sides when they disagree

And neither one seems right

Too much city life

Is messin' with my inner lite

And everybody's too cool to believe

I wasn't born yesterday

You should know by now

So let's set the record straight

And we can carry on

I wasn't born yesterday

I'll find out

I ain't innocent

Lots of room for me to doubt

I never learned to cry

So far so extreme

If i'm jaded, you're naive

But behind that cynic's steady gaze

There's a wide-eyed lover drink for days

Oh i don't want to be

One of those guys who only sees

The joke behind the lie

Too much city life

May i don't know wrong from right

But baby i ain't too cool to believe

I wasn't born yesterday

I don't die for love

Just let the record speak

Then i carry on

I wasn't born yesterday

I don't die for love

It's never too late to come of age

Never too late

Oh i wanna learn to cry

Baby's gone

Said she's movin' on

Telling me

I ain't comin' along

I thought you said you were satisfied

You've given up on everything we tried for, why?

How can you justify sacrificing our love

Justify

Sacrificing our love

Smoking gun

Hoid it in your hand

You can't deny

I'm the victim of your plan

Innocence with a guilty side

I don't understand

Tell me why oh why

How can you justify sacrificing our love

Justify

Sacrificing our love

Lonely hearts finally find a home

Then they part

Like everybody does

Guess the love meant more to me

Go your way

But i can't see... why

How can you justify sacrificing our love

Justify

Sacrificing our love

F-ing short the loving lasts
I can't mix the future with the past
Can i stay close to you
I wanna stay close to you


You've got yours and i've got mine
And what we have in so hard to define
Just take a look at your life line
You've got a lot to shine
Let's say baby,
I wanna know you for a long long time
Ooh baby
I wanna know you for a long long time


Oh darling, lady friend
We'll see each other when it's time to show
Just for a minute or for a year
But then again, don't you and i know


A time between our time together
It doesn't exist, it grows old forever
Just take a look at your life line
Ob baby, you've got a lot to shine
I know it baby,
I wanna know you for a long long time
Ob and baby,

I wanna know you for a long long time
I wanna know baby, i wanna know baby
Oh you've got a lot to live girl
So i wanna know you for a long long time
I wanna know, i wanna know,
I wanna know baby
So much to live for girl,
So much to live for girl
So i wanna know you baby
Wanna know you for a long long time.
I wanna know, wanna know ...


(etc. and fade)

Why does that restless part of me always see

Did i know love wouid show

And i'd find the passion i need

Look up ahead

All i see are worlds apart

Broken hearts

Looking for something more

Some magic they might feel



Chorus:

That's why l hold on

Holding out for love

There's only one i'm dreaming of

That's why l hold on

Hoiding out for love

But will that one heart wait for me

You know we take those twists and turns

Never learn

Goin on

Takes so long to find all the passion we need

Look what we have

Don't wanna be two worlds apart

Loving hearts stay live

Strong survive

Just matters what we both feel



Chorus:

That's why l hold on

Holding out for love

There's only one i'm dreaminng of

That's why i hold on

Holding out for love

But will that one heart wait for me



I watch the time go by

I swear now baby i...

Have never been so sure in my heart

So close to my dreams



Chorus:

That's why i hold on

Holding out for love

There's only one i'm dreaming of

That's why l hold on

Holding out for love

One lonely heart waiting

There comes a time when we need a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying, oh, and it's time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift of all

We can't go on pretending day by day
That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
We're all a part of god's great big family
And the truth, you know love is all we need

We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start givin'

There's a choice we're makin'
We're savin' our own lives
It's true, we'll make a better day
Just you and me

Well, send them you your heart so they know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As god has shown us by turning stone to bread
And so we all must lend a helping hand

We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start givin'

Whoa, there's a choice we're makin'
We're savin' our own lives
It's true, we'll make a better day
Just you and me

When you're down and out
There seems no hope at all
But if you just believe
There's no way we can fall

Well, well, well, let us realize
Oh, that one change can only come
When we stand together as one
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start givin'

There's a choice we're makin'
We're savin' our own lives
It's true, we'll make a better day
Just you and me

We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start givin'

I can't see you when i look at you

Only see you in my memory

When i find you it's just outside my sight line

Between experience and fantasy

Don't bear up to close inspection

Close inspection of the cold hard facts

Blow in and out of my life like a spirit

My eye can't see you but my mind reacts

Only a vision in the corner of my eye

Only a vision that i see out of the corner of my eye

Only a vision

Said you loved me

Heard that plain as day

I should lose this

Vision fade away

What's holding on to me

Just some state of mind

Feeling's coming on

One more time

Close inspection

I've checked this out again and again

And it won't respond to cold hard facts

Then you blow in and out of my life like a spirit

My mind knows better but my heart reacts

Only a vision in the corner of my eye

Only a vision that i see out of the corner of my eye

Only a vision girl

I wish that vision that i'm seeing was real

[say it]

[say it isn't so]

[say it]

[say it isn't so]

Say it isn't so painful to tell me that you're dissatisfied.

Last time i asked you i really got a lame excuse.

I know that you lied.

Now wicked things can happen...you see 'em goin' down in war.

But when you play in a quiet way that bites it even more.

[say it]

Tell me what you want yeah

I'll do it baby i promise right now.

[say it]

Who propped you up when you were stopped low motivation had you on the ground.

I know your first reaction you slide away hide away goodbye.

But if there's a doubt maybe i can give out a thousand reasons why.

You have to say it isn't so...

[it isn't so].

I say it isn't so

[it isn't so]

I say it isn't so

[it isn't so].

I say it isn't so

[it isn't so]

[say it]

We like to be the strangers at the party, two rebels in a shell.

[say it]

You like to move with the best of them you know we move so well.

Don't need someone to lean on. i know that there's an open door.

But if i'm faced with being replaced i want you even more so baby say it isn't so...

[it isn't so].

I say it isn't so

[it isn't so].

I say it isn't so

[it isn't so]

I say it isn't so

Some other way.

[so say it isn't]

Aah

You don't have to say.

[say it isn't]

Oh don't you say

[so say it isn't]

Oh you know i want to make you...

I saw on the tv we're sellin' arms to the enemy

So he can blow us all down

When we charge with the cards in our hands

And men in power places are resigning

'cause even in high seats the woman is still fighting with the man

And tho i thought the time of the tough guy was just about over

Here comes another savior to stir the soldiers in the field

But what do the generals think about while the soldiers are dying

'cause the rallying cries don't reach 'em

And if they could feel they'd say

What's gonna happen to us

Does your shrink say find out who you are

Before you try to become a part of me

I'd think you'd want to anyway

She can't help you live out a middle-class fantasy

But can she talk you into leavin'

When your heart tells you to stay

Just when i thought the era of the guru was over

Here comes another savior to stir the soldiers in the field

What does the teacher care about while the student is trying

'cause your crying mind don't reach her

If she could feel she'd say

What's gonna happen to us

We've been through love time & time again

Tried for true love with enemies and friends

Looked at romance every way

Now my heart can't take that anymore anyway



Chorus:

Let me be the one

One with you

Let me be the one

To make your dreams come true

All i wanna do

Is be with you one day

Let me be the one

One heart one way

You've been let down

You've been left alone

And remember when i look you home

We looked at our lives every way

Now our soul can't take anymore

Oh no way



Chorus:

Let me be the one

One with you

Let me be the one

To make your dreams come true

All i wanna do

Is be with you one day

Let me be the one

One heart

I wanna know how you feel

Let your whole heart get in the way

If you don't know, think of something tender to say

As long as it's me, then it's alright

Oh, let's make it groove

Taking it nice and smooth

Turn out the light - i can see

Your face

It's you and i - in the time and place

The radio playing teddy's groove

The city nights - nothing love

Couldn't do

Oh, baby, it's been too long

I need to feel the same thing

That made that time our own

Oh, let's make it groove

Taking it nice and smooth

I'm in a philly mood

Oh, baby come down

I wanna hold you now

I'm in a philly mood

Lay down your love - i can feel

Your soul

When night is gone let our hearts

Carry on

As sure as you are of the love

We made

I know sometimes we've been so

Out of place

Oh, lately, girl it seems that we've

Come home

To the place that made that time

Our own

Oh, let's make it groove

Taking it nice and smooth

I'm in a philly mood

Oh, baby come down

I wanna hold you now

I'm in a philly mood

Oh, let's make it groove

Taking it twice as smooth

I'm in a philly mood

Oh, baby come on

I wanna hold you now

I'm in a philly mood

Maybe i'm on rocky mountain time

But i don't know what's up with you

We could fake it out, say hey

Never mind

But someday livin' loose will

Get to you

And you say baby please, i'm

Cryin tears

Will i hear it deep inside of me

Maybe you'll decide you're

Outta here

Anything can happen, anything

Can be

This time

You can't walk away

Gotta have you say

Make it clear

This time

Gonna face your fears

Share your tears

For love my dear

Sad attacks

Roll'em off my back

I don't know babe how to be so blue

I can lose my mind

I can do hard time

But it scares me if i'm outta sync

With you

I'm going to extremes

To show a gentle man

You know i'm not as hard

As you believe

Try for you, and cry for you

Never call me heartless, when i try

The hardest

This time

You can't walk away

Gotta have you say

Make it clear

This time

Gonna face your fears

Share your tears

For love my dear

This time

I won't turn away

>from the love that's here

The love i needed

This time

I won't let you down

I won't play around

I swear my dear

Ain't no doubt

People live in fear

Turn away, no see no hear

Sayin' i don't know

What happened officer

I wanna be the perfect witness

Baby do we care to see it?

Show some heart

Maybe come a time

When love will come apart

We're living here

I will make it clear

Silence is a lie

To tell the truth i'm tryin'

Me and mrs. jones, we got a thing going on,

We both know that it's wrong

But it's much too strong to let it cool down now.

We meet ev'ry day at the same cafe,

Six-thirty i know she'll be there,

Holding hands, making all kinds of plans

While the jukebox plays our favorite song.

Me and mrs., mrs. jones, mrs. jones, mrs. jones,

Mrs. jones got a thing going on,

We both know that it's wrong,

But it's much too strong to let it cool down now.

We gotta be extra careful that we don't build our hopes too high

Cause she's got her own obligations and so do i,

Me, me and mrs., mrs. jones, mrs. jones, mrs. jones,

Mrs. jones got a thing going on,

We both know that it's wrong,

But it's much too strong to let it cool down now.

Well, it's time for us to be leaving,

Iit hurts so much, it hurts so much inside,

Now she'll go her way and i'll go mine,

But tomorrow we'll meet the same place, the same time.

Me and mrs. jones, mrs. jones, mrs. jones.

People always called me a fool

Because i never treated you cruel

I treated you good and you still walked away

But my stubborness still makes me say...keep sayin'



Girl i love ya'....girl i need ya' (by my side)

Girl i want you ( i've been true to you)..but i'm still lonely and blue



(do doop do do).......



At first i thought she was, and now that you see...now i know she took advantage of me...without you, sadness wells up inside...and makes a shambles of my foolish pride....keep sayin'



Girl i love you...girl i need you...girl i love you...(i"ve been true to you)

But i'm still lonely and blue....(do doop do do) ohh oh baby...ah baby..ooh baby...



Other people think that our love is wrong...i have found the strength to carry on...yes i am serious...., though she might be playin.'...

She'll come back if i just keep on sayin'.....keep on sayin...i keep sayin...keep on sayin...i keep sayin'....keep on sayin' ..... i keep say---in.



Girl i love you...girl i need you ...girl i want you....can't you see that i love you can't you see that i need you...baby baby baby .....ain't too proud to beg baby

Can't you see that i love you...........

It was always you and me and him
A whiskey sour, beer and gin
We were having fun
When the night was over
You'd go off together leaving me alone,
All alone
I stayed up every night, i had to find a way
I had to get to you
So i told you he was stepping outside
I said when you broke down and cried
Why don't you come to me


* she said i love you like a brother
And that's how it's got to stay
Because i don't need no reminder
Of the love that went away
And the more i desire,
The less it does inspire
Because she says i remind her
Of the love she left behind


I found myself in the same old place
In the bar, another lonely night to spend
But the first thing i saw when i walked in
Was my almost lover, and my ex best friend
She was drinking all alone
And he was on the telephone
They wouldn't look at me
I went outside, i wanted to cry
It's a lonely life, ain't what it used to be


(* repeat 2 times and fade)

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring

Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun

Now the jingle hop has begun

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time

Dancin' and prancin' in jingle bell square

In the frosty air



What a bright time, it's the right time

To rock the night away

Jingle bell time is a swell time

To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet

Jingle around the clock

Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet

That's the jingle bell rock



Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock (repeat verse1's

Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time last 4 lines)

Dancin' and prancin' in jingle bell square

In the frosty air



What a bright time, it's the right time

To rock the night away

Jingle bell time is a swell time

To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet

Jingle around the clock

Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet

That's the jingle bell

That's the jingle bell

That's the jingle bell rock

Ever growing

The dreams that we accumulated

Never knowing

The demons that we created

Villans stole the spotlight

While love was waiting in the wings

Left us with a long night

And a hunger for material things

But when it's gone, gone baby

And we're livin' with ourselves again

Will it dawn on us darling

That the love we had is worth more

Than we spend

Money changes everything

I'll turn your world around so fast

Money changes everything

Money

Money changes everything

No one questions how long

It will last

Money changes everything

Money

Sorry baby

I was a stranger to myself

Sometimes

No excuses

The best intentions come

Tumblin' down

When it's gone, baby

Will it be the way it was before?

When it's gone, gone darlin'

Will we realize what the money

Was for?

Money changes everything

I'll turn your world around so fast

Money changes everything

Money

Money changes everything

No one questions how long

It will last

Money changes everything

Money

Love

Does it feel like it did?

Money changes everything

I can see the anger

And i surely feel

All the passion, baby gone astray

Why are we divided

So dissatisfied

Does it matter what we do or say

I can't see the wisdom

Never gonna give in

When the love is not so far away

I was hoping for more

I'm still hoping for sure

Isn't anybody dreamin'

Isn't anybody thinking

Or am i all by myself

Isn't anybody teachin'

Why is everybody preachin'

Am i all by myself

Don't you feel it lately

That you're the only one

Who can see through bitter lies right here

Like everybody knows it

But no one seems to care

As if there's something in the truth we fear

Aren't you hoping for more

I'm still hoping for sure

Isn't anybody dreamin'

Isn't anybody thinking

And all by myself

Isn't anybody lovin'

Isn't anybody huggin'

Am i all by myself, tell me, tell me

Am i all by myself

All by myself

Come on everybody teach it with me

Am i all by myself

Don't wanna be all by myself

Come on everybody preach it with me

I've been trying so hard to close my eyes

Dawn is rising under those cloudy skies

Days in darkness

Seemed like they'd never end

But now the rules are changing, girl

We can begin again

And we'll be right as rain

Who's been fooling you

They've been cruel to me

The kind of love we share

Is hard for those people to see

Stormy weather

Still the chill remains

What they thought was lost forever

Has been found again

And we'll be right as rain

All those violent people

Wind up tearing our peace apart

Do their best to destroy our future

Before it has a chance to start

Never had a chance to start

The kind of love we share

It's so hard for some to see

I know it was hard for me

It ain't lost forever

It's been found again

In the rain

And it feels so good to me

When i'm hurt then i come on strong

I wanna break down

But i just keep it in

Being too strong is a weakness, girl

'cause when you fight the world

You know who's gonna win

And you say i won't look you in the eye

It's like talking to a wall

But a wall can crumble down

Yeah there's something that's deep inside

That's gotta be tough

Whenever you're around

I've got this foolish pride

And pride goes before a fall

Yeah i've got this foolish pride

You make me feel like the livin' end

But the end came quick

And made me wanna die

So i played like i didn't care

Didn't mess my hair

Believe me i don't know why

I've got this foolish pride

And pride goes before a fall

Yeah i've got this foolish pride

If i wanted i colled have fooled 'em all

That's great 'til tomorrow when i'm all alone

You know the truth comes out in the end

When the fools start falling they need their friends

Mother, mother, there's too many of you crying

Brother, brother, brother, there's far too many of you dying

You know we'ver got to find a way

To bring some lovin' here today, hey

Father, father, we don't need to escalate

War is not the answer, for only love can conquer hate

You know we've got to find a way

To bring some lovin' here today

Chorus #1:

Picket lines and picket signs

Don't punish me with brutality

Talk to me, so you can see

Oh what's going on, what's going on

Yeah, what's going on, ah, what's going on

Ahhh....

Mother, mother, everybody thinks we're wrong

Ah but who are they to judge us

Simply 'cos our hair is long

Ah you know we'ver got to find a way

To brind some understanding here today

Chorus #2:

Picket lines and picket signs

Don't punish me with brutality

Talk to me, so you can see

What's going on, yeah what's going on

Tell me what's going on, i'll tell you what's going on

Ain't too proud to beg

I know ya wanna leave me, but i refuse to let you go

If i have to beg and plead for your sympathy,

I don't mind coz' you mean that much to me

Ain't too proud to beg, you know it (sweet darlin')

Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

Ain't to proud to plead, baby, baby

Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

Now i heard a cryin' man, is half a man

With no sense of pride

But if i have to cry to keep ya, i don't mind weepin'

If it'll keep you by my side

Ain't too proud to beg, you know it sweet darlin'

Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

Ain't to proud to plead, baby, baby

Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

If i have to sleep on your doorstep all night and day just to keep you from walkin' away let your friends laugh, even this i can stand cause i want to keep you any way i can

Ain't too proud to beg, you know it sweet darlin'

Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

Ain't to proud to plead, baby, baby

Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

Now i've gotta love so deep in the pit of my heart

And each day it grows more and more i'm not ashamed to come and plead to you baby

If pleadin' keeps you from walkin' out that door

Ain't too proud to beg, you know it sweet darlin'

Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

Ain't to proud to plead, baby, baby

Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

Baby - baby - baby

My friends don't understand it

They don't know what you've

Got to me

My life is too complicated

And i need, sure need

Some simplicity

Ooh the love is ever growing

And there has to be a reason why it

Works for me

You know - baby how to move me

What you give to me is elemental

Can't you see

That you take the pain from me

Only you know my fantasies

You make me realize

Girl you know the way of keeping

Love alive

It's the power of seduction

It's the only way to keep me

Hanging on baby

It's the power of seduction

It's the only hope, so baby do

What you want

Just words can't describe it

'cause there's more to love than

What to say

Hey lately i've been thinking

And that's bad you know i might

Blow it 'cos of reason

Baby you can never do too much

Only you, you make the senses

All rush

With you - girl i've got to be

All because you keep alive

The mystery

It's the power of seduction

It's the only way to keep me

Hanging on baby

It's the power of seduction

It's the only hope, so baby do

What you want

You made the change in me

Only you know my fantasies

With you i will always be

Living with the passion

And the mystery

I used to think love was a dying art

Compassion couldn't live within a crowded heart

I saw my freedom in a poor man's eyes

Hope like a light, will to survive

A sense of dignity to hold up high

These are the simple things

That keep us all alive

And though the rich buy power for a time

One thing that money can't buy



Chorus



Love and compassion

(only) love and compassion

Give it to you

Give it to me

Love and compassion

(only) love and compassion

That's what it takes

(give love...you're gonna feel love...

Ooo... feel love... you're gonna give love)



One night when i was feelin' all alone

I saw a shadow walking in the danger zone

I knew that i would have to make a choice

Hunger in my heart, hunger in my spirit

We won't be free until we equalize

The price of power to the price of every life

And though i know it's gonna take some time

Someday we're all gonna find



Love and compassion

(onlv) love and compassion

Give it to you

Give it to me

Love and compassion

(only) love and compassion

That's what it takes to relate



Love and compassion

(only) love and compassion

Give it to you

Give it to me

(oniy) love und compassion

That's what it takes

(give love... ooo feel love... you're gonna

Feel love... if you give love)



Love und compassion

Love und compassion

Love und compassion

Love und compassion

Love und compassion

(only) love und compassion

Give it to you

Give it to me

Love and compassion

Someday we're gonna find it



Oh when i was alone

And i reached out for more

I just opened my eyes

Love und compassion

I know it will take some time

But you know we're gonna make it come true

Love and compassion

All my love and compassion

Love und compassion

Love und compassion



All my love, all my love und compassion

Someday, someday we're gonna find it, realize it

Take some time to give

Love und compassion

Hope iike a light, and a will to survive...

Just look at you and me

Yea we've had some fun,

Don't you agree?

Now that we have come this far

Time to stop the game and

Make a start

I want you to take this seriously

But all you do is show inhumanity

You hurt me oh, but i can't

Hurt you back

Baby don't you know i've got more

Heart than that

I can't hide the way i feel

Help me please, baby please help me

We've reached the borderline

Nowhere to go but down

If we can't turn our world around

We've reached the borderline

Maybe it's not too late

Only we can choose our fate

I tried but i can't loose the crazy pain

I wish that it would go so i can live again

You may or may not know that i'm

Beside myself

Oh you know there's only you and

No one else

I can't hide, it's sad you see

Something that could feel so good

May never be

We've reached the borderline

Nowhere to go but down

If we can't turn our world around

We've reached the borderline

Got everything to gain

If only we can stop the pain

The sky is falling

Falling again

Keep on reaching

Keep believing

I wanna know what you dream, oh baby

Am i one with your fantasy

I wanna show you my deepest feelings

Ain't that how love's supposed to be



Give me love hold on to me

Give me love hold on to me

Give me dreams hold on

...oh baby, give it up

Give me heart hold on to me

Give me soul hold on to me

Give me your smile hold on

...oh baby, give it all



I had enough of bad luck, oh baby,

All those nights that i can't replace

But none of the love in my past can claim me

Others go but you don't fade away



Give me love hold on to me

Give me love hold on to me

Give me dreams hold on

...oh baby, give it up

Give me heart hold on to me

Give me soul hold on to me

Give me your life hold on

...oh baby, give it all



I know in my heart it's real

Know this is love i feel

If something ain't right just say so baby

Don't let go...don't stay away...stay with me



Give me love hold on to me

Give me hope hold on to me

Give me dreams hold on

...oh baby, give it up

Give me heart hold on to me

Give me soul hold on to me

Give me your smile hold on

...oh baby, give it all
