Alive

From the time that i wake to the time that i rise, she's a lover and so am i
But the lady loves her passion more than me
When i'm under her spell, then i know very well, how her magic can mystify
And the lady leaves her lovers in ecstasy
She's young, but she's wise, and the heaven in her eyes at half a glance
Is as much as a man can see
But she'll never really love any more than any other lover in her life
And you'll come to know the devil in angelique
For a moment it seems i'm a part of her dreams
And she loves like she's hypnotized
While she hides inside the man she's made of me
And then just when i've found her, her visions surround her
And i'll never fill her eyes, but i wonder who in hell the young girl sees
And she moans, and she sighs, and you search inside her eyes
But all you find is a man who can never be
And you wonder if she'll ever discover that the devil could never set her free
She's young, but she's wise, and the heaven in her eyes at half a glance
Is as much as any man can see
And you'll never really lose any more than any other lover has lost in her life
When you've come to know the devil in angelique
And you'll come to know the devil in angelique
And you'll learn to love the devil

Here's a sweet september morning, there's the sense of autumn on the rise
He steps into the wind and sadly sighs
"why does it always seem to be, there's a cold december wind in front of me?"
The more he fills his empty evenings
The less he feels that there's a chance to find
Something that can bring a peace of mind
Is there a place where you can go?
A little something you should know to turn the tide to your favor?
Chorus:
Wait a little while to welcome what you're after
Give it the time to find its way to you
And soon as you no longer try, you'll turn and find it standing by your side
Come and get it, when you let it, it'll come to you
(instrumental break)
Chorus (with 'staring in your eyes')
When i run short on inspiration, i best recall what i've known all along
'n i remember sweet september's song, there never really has to be
A cold and bitter wind in front of me anymore
Chorus (with 'staring in your eyes')
Just forget it and wait a little while, while, while
Wait a little while, everything will come to you in time
Wait a little while - everything will come to you in time
Wait a little while - every little thing's gonna come to you in time
Wait a little while - everything will come to you in time
Wait a little while - everything will come to you in time
Wait a little while

There have been times in my life
I've been wondering why
Still somehow i believed
We'd always survive
Now i'm not so sure
You're waiting to hear
One good reason to try
But what more can i say
What's left to provide
You think that maybe it's over
Only if you want it to be
Are you gonna wait for your sign, your
Miracle
Stand up and fight
This is it
Make no mistake where you are
This is it
Your back's to the corner
This is it
Don't be a fool anymore
This is it
The waiting is over
No room to run
No way to hide
No time for wondering why
It's here
The moment is now
About to decide
Let him believe
Or leave him behind
But keep me near in your heart
And know, whatever you do
I'm here by your side
You said that maybe it's over
Not if you don't want it to be
For once in your life, here's your miracle
Stand up and fight
This is it
Make no mistake where you are
This is it
You're going no further
This is it
Until it's over and done
No one can tell you what you know
Who makes the choice of how it goes
It's not up to me this time
You know
There comes a day in every life
This is it
Make no mistake where you are
This is it
You're going no further
This is it
Until it's over and done
This is it
One way or another
This is it
No one can tell what the future holds
This is it
Your back's to the corner
This is it
You make the choice of how it goes
This is it
The waiting is over
This is it
No one can tell what the future holds
This is it
You're going no further

Slow talkin', the line you're walkin'
Look like a viper wearin' silkin' stockings
You make 'em guess they'd be gettin' the best
Can't help but wonder if you'd pass the test
Kissin' my fingers, you touch my face
'n play your hand like you're holdin' the ace
But baby when it comes around, are you gonna pick it up or lay it down
You make it harder and harder to stop what you've started
Chorus:
(down 'n dirty)
Oh my little rosalee, don't you think it's goin' on time we see
If you're gonna come with me, i bet you, i get you
I've had enough of this comin' on stuff
I feel like gettin' down on somethin' tough
I do believe you're what you're tryin' to be
Now show me, honey, 'cause i'm dying to see
Take it baby, make your play, we'll make love in different ways
I call your bluff and stand, pretty mama, hold me in your hand
And make it harder and harder to stop what you've started
Chorus
(instrumental break)
Kissin' my fingers, you touch my face
'n play your hand like you're holdin' the ace
Baby when it comes around, are you gonna pick it up or lay it down
You make it harder and harder to stop what you've started
Chorus
Rosalee, don't you think it's goin' on time we see
If you're gonna come with me, i'm dirty, down 'n dirty

I see faces!
Coverin' an empty 'i'
Empty spaces
Where there used to be a soul inside

Nothin' and no one ever gets to them
Seems the wind could blow right through them
Believin' in gods that never knew them
I believe in love

I believe in love, i do!
I believe i'm feelin' good
I'm feeling love!
(feeling love is feeling good)
I believe in love
Feeling love is feeling good!

Worry!
Climbin' up your money tree
You've got to hide it
Monkey do what the monkey see

You're on a one-way street and you're speedin'
Missin' the signs you should be readin'
That's the things you'll later be needin'
I believe in love

I believe it, nobody sold me
Always knew it, nobody told me
I believe in someone to hold me
I believe in love

I believe in love, i do!
I believe i'm feelin' good
I'm feeling love!
(feeling love is feeling good)
(feeling love is feeling good, i believe in love)
(feeling love is feeling good)
I believe in love
(feeling love is feeling good, i believe in love)
Feeling love is feeling good!
(i believe in love)
Feeling love is feeling good!
(i believe in love)

Oh, never be lonely!
Sleepin' in an empty bed
Shouldn't feel it, just a place to rest my head

But i don't want to find myself one day
Wakin' up and lookin' at monday
With some 'whats-her-name' left from sunday
I believe in love

I believe it, nobody sold me
Always knew it, nobody told me
I believe in someone to hold me
I believe in love

I believe in love, i do!
I believe i'm feelin' good
Everybody should!
I believe i'm feelin' good
Believe in it
Believe in, love!

You give your hand to me
And then you say, "hello."
And i can hardly speak,
My heart is beating so.
And anyone can tell
You think you know me well.
Well, you don't know me.

No you don't know the one
Who dreams of you at night;
And longs to kiss your lips
And longs to hold you tight
Oh i'm just a friend.
That's all i've ever been.
Cause you don't know me.

For i never knew the art of making love,
Though my heart aches with love for you.
Afraid and shy, i let my chance go by.
A chance that you might love me too.

You give your hand to me,
And then you say, "goodbye."
I watched you walk away,
Beside the lucky guy
Oh, you'll never ever know
The one who loved you so.
Well, you don't know me

For i never knew the art of making love,
Though my heart aches with love for you.
Afraid and shy, i let my chance go by.
A chance that you might love me too.

Oh, you give your hand to me,
And then you say, "goodbye."
I watched you walk away,
Beside the lucky guy
Oh, you'll never ever know
The one who loved you so.
Well, you don't know me

Home for the holidays,
I believe i've missed each and every face,
Come on and play my music,
Let's turn on the love light in the place

It's time i found myself,
Totally surrounded in your circles
Whoa, my friends

Please, celebrate me home,
Give me a number,
Please, celebrate me home
Play me one more song,
That i'll always remember,
And i can recall,
Whenever i find myself too all alone,
I can sing me home.

Uneasy highway,
Traveling where the westerly winds can fly,
Somebody tried to tell me,
But the men forgot to tell me why,

I gotta count on being gone,
Come on woman, come on daddy,
Be what you want from me,
I'm this strong, i'll be weak

Please, celebrate me home,
Give me a number,
Please, celebrate me home
Play me one more song,
That i'll always remember,
I can recall,
Whenever i find myself too all alone,
I can make believe i've never gone,
I never know where i belong,
Sing me home.

Please, celebrate me home,
Give me a number,
Please, celebrate me home
Play me one more song,

Celebrate, celebrate
Celebrate, celebrate
Celebrate, celebrate
Celebrate me home

Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home,
Well i'm finally here,
But i'm bound to roam,
Come on celebrate me home
Well i'm finally here,
But i'm bound to roam,
Come on celebrate me home
Well i'm finally here,
But i'm bound to roam,
Come on celebrate me home
Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home,

He came from somewhere back in her long ago
The sentimental fool don't see
Tryin' hard to recreate
What had yet to be created once in her life
She musters a smile
For his nostalgic tale
Never coming near what he wanted to say
Only to realized
It never really was
She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
As she rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
He's watching her go
But what a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
And nothing at all keeps sending him ...
Somewhere back in her long ago
Where he can still believe
There's a place in her life
Someday, somewhere, she will return
She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
As she rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
He's watching her go
But what a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
There's nothing at all
But what a fool believes he sees ...
