LETS NOT AND SAY WE DID

Why does everybody rush
Here and there
Gimme one good reason why
I should care
Sun is shining big and bright
Sky is blue
Must be something better than
Work to do

Don't know what you want from your life, baby
But I want mine
To be everything I've dreamed of
Anything else is just a waste of precious time

Cause how could there ever be a better time than this
To have some fun
While we're here and we're young
And if they tell us there's some kinda life
That we should live
Ooo, let's not and say we did

Stress and dues, deadlines to meet
Bills to pay
Can't we put it off for just
One more day
Sitting on the 405
Parking lot
Is this how we wanna spend
The time we got

Don't know what you want from your life baby
But I want mine
To be something wild and wonderful
Make the most of each minute of my precious time

Cause how could there ever be a better time than this
To have some fun
While we're here and we're young
And if they tell us there's some kinda life
That we should live
Ooo, let's not and say we did
Cause how could there ever be a better time than this
To love someone
While we're here and we're young
And if they tell us there's some kinda damn
That we should give
Ooo, let's not and say we did

Take Me In Your Arms

I've had one of those days
Where everything went wrong no matter what I did or said
And everyone I talked to seemed to be so distant
And nothing that I did made any difference
I'd like to just forget this day
Please help me make it go away

Take me in your arms, take me in your arms
That's all I want from you
Just take me in your arms, take me in your arms
And hold me close to you
That's all you have to do
Take me in your arms

I'm not falling apart
I'm only letting go of this ache in my heart
That I'd rather not hold onto any longer
I may be weaker now but I'll be getting stronger
It may not seem like much to you
But now I really need you to

Chorus

I don't want to talk it out
I don't want to think about it now
I've had enough
What I need is your sweet love

Chorus

I COULD BE YOUR EVERYTHING

VERSE 1
I could be romantic
Then I could change
I could be shy
Or I could have no shame

And I could be tempted
Given half a chance
To put my arms around you
And do a slow love dance

PRE-CHORUS 1
Cause my heart is saying
We finally found each other
And the night is waiting
To turn us into lovers

CHORUS
I could be your everything
If you let me
I could be your everything
Everything and more
I could be your everything
Yes, I could be
I could be your everything
Everything you're lookin' for

VERSE 2
I could be as warm
As a tropical wind
I could be soft
Like a feather on your skin
I could come to you
When you call my name
You could be the charcoal
And I could be the flame

PRE-CHORUS 2
And I'd spend my time
Trying to discover
All the different ways
To give pleasure to my lover

CHORUS

BRIDGE
I could be your, be your
Yes, I could be
I could be your everything
I could be your, be your
If you let me
I could be your everything

PRE-CHORUS 2

CHORUS OUTRO
I could be your everything
Oooh---
I could be your everything
Oh be my everything
I could be your everything
Oh I could be your everything, yeah
I could be your everything
Oooh everything, everything
I could be your everything
Oh everything you're lookin' for
I could be your everything
I could be romantic
I could be your everything
Oh I could be your everything
Oh I could be your everything (everything, everything)
And put my arms around you

Before You Go And Break My Heart

I see somebody else is on your mind
On your mind
Did you think I wouldn't notice after all this time
All this time
That girl wasn't someone you just met
Someone you could take or leave
Cause you look at her
The way you used to look at me, so

Before you go and break my heart
Think it over
Think about me and you
Before you go and break my heart
Baby, hold me
Is this what you want to lose

Always thought I would share your happiness
Your happiness
Always wanted the best for you, but not like this
Not like this
So ask yourself again before you do
Something you'll be sorry for
Are you really sure
That you don't love me anymore, oh

Chorus

Before you go and take another lover
Think about what we've meant to each other
Isn't there anything left for us to say
Cause baby, I'd hate to see us throw it all away

So ask yourself again before you do
Something you'll be sorry for
Are you really sure
That you don't love me anymore

Chorus

Wake Up Call

Bringin' my car back with the gas tank on e
Bringin' your friends here when you said you'd spend time with me
Puttin' your feet up and watchin' tv
Cleanin' out the fridge, baby, then falling asleep

If you still want me
You gotta do better, baby
You can't expect me to
Wait around forever, baby

This is your wake-up call
Better pick up the phone
This is your wake-up call
Or you're gonna be all alone
This is your wake-up call
Is anybody home
You better wake up, wake up

You only show up here when you wanna have a good time
You're doin' me wrong, boy and you know that ain't right
You're breakin' my heart, now but I still got my pride
Baby I love you but I gotta get on with my life

If you still want me
You gotta do better, baby
This is your last chance to
Get yourself together, baby

Chorus

(pick it up, pick it up) hear somethin', baby?
(pick it up, pick it up) I think you got a call
(pick it up, pick it up) you gonna answer that, boy?
(pick it up, pick it up) it's ringin' off the wall

Chorus

Never In A Million Years

Not once in my life
Not on the darkest night
Has it ever crossed my mind at all
I never could see
Anyone else with me
No, I'd never leave you now
When you need me the most that's when I will be close to you

And baby, I want you to know
I love you so
I'd never go
Never in a million years
You'll always be
My destiny
I'd never leave
Never in a million years

Believe it or not
What we've got, my love
Some people never find at all
A difficult time
Comes in to our lives
And gives me the chance I've wanted
All of my life to go right to the wall for you

And baby, I want you to know
I love you so
I'd never go
Never in a million years
You'll always be
My destiny
I'd never leave
Never in a million years

I'll be there no matter where tomorrow takes us
Every day and night from now until the end of time

Break

So how could I leave you now
When you need me the most that's when I will be close to you

Love Never Ends

Rain falling down
Into the ocean
Rising up becomes a cloud in the sky
Round and around
Love is in motion
Between you and me
It never will die
Throw a stone in the water
Watch the circle spread
Took my baby by the hand
And this is where it led
Oh my darling

Love never ends
It goes from me to you
And you to me and back again
Love never ends
Once it begins
It goes from me to you
And you to me and back again

You run through me
Like I was a river
Every night and day, asleep or awake
Breaking the silence
You make me shiver
When I hear your voice
Calling my name
Hear the bells in the distance
See the lover's moon
Take your baby by the hand
And pull her close to you

Chorus

Hear the bells in the distance
See the lover's moon
Take me baby by the hand
And pull me close to you

Chorus

Should I act against my better judgment
Do what my mind says ain't right
Will I hate myself in the morning
Can't think about that tonight
I love the smell of danger in your hair
Right or wrong baby, I don't care

I've got nobody but myself to blame
When will I ever learn
Just like a moth that's drawn into a flame
There is nowhere to turn
When The Fire Starts To Burn

Why am I so tempted by disaster
What makes me crave it like I do
I might get burned by my desire
Still I'd do anything for you
I should've run when I saw your smile
'Cause I know trouble and it drives me wild

I've got nobody but myself to blame
When will I ever learn
Just like a moth that's drawn into a flame
There is nowhere to turn
When The Fire Starts To Burn

I know it's wrong to stare in the devil's eyes
But life is short, why let it pass you by

I love the smell of danger in your hair
Right or wrong baby, I just don't care

I've got nobody but myself to blame
When will I ever learn
Just like a moth that's drawn into a flame
There is nowhere to turn
When The Fire Starts To Burn

WE'VE GOT LOVE

Living for tomorrow, lost in yesterday
Chasing after dreams that just get in the way
Feeling left behind while trying to get ahead
Somedays it seems hard just getting out of bed
We try to reach for bluer skies
But we've got something here that money just can't buy

IF THIS IS THE HIGHEST MOUNTAIN
THEN IT'S HIGH ENOUGH
IF THIS IS THE ROUGHEST ROAD WE TRAVEL
THEN IT AIN'T SO ROUGH
IF THIS IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS
IT'S GOOD ENOUGH
WE'VE GOT EVERYTHING WE NEED
AS LONG AS WE'VE GOT LOVE
WE'VE GOT LOVE

Where's the simple life we had when we were young
When it wasn't life or death, if we lost or won
Then, we took the time to stare up at the sky
Seems I've let these things that matter pass me by
It's so easy to be sad
When you're blind to all the riches that you have

CHORUS

If we open up our eyes... WE'VE GOT LOVE
It's not too late to realize...
As long as we're alive... WE'VE GOT LOVE

Solo

Chorus

UNDER THE MISTLETOE

I tried to call you darlin' late last night
I had to have your form by the firelight
The telephone rang and rang for hours
Where you were, I don't know
You see I miss your kiss under the mistletoe

I had the table set for two, with champagne on ice
I had my phone machine on, I even checked it twice
My friends said "Let's go party," I said sorry
He's gonna show
You see I miss your kiss under the mistletoe

If you leave me all alone here on Christmas Eve
You better have a reason that I'm gonna believe
You said you'd bring me presents
You swore you'd change your ways
I thought these were supposed to be happy holidays

I want to share with you a glass of Christmas cheer
But before we have that drink you're gonna have to be here
I just want you by my side and there's one thing
you've gotta know
You see I miss your kiss under the mistletoe

Well, I miss your kiss, I miss your kiss
I want that bliss, I just can't resist
You see I miss your kiss under the mistletoe

RUN BACK TO YOU

Staring out my window into the pouring rain
The same old dream is haunting me again
I'm an innocent prisoner paying for a crime
Now you call late and wake me, 'cos you say it's love this time

CHORUS:
If I run back to you, will you walk out on me
Is this heaven or hell -- Am I too blind to see
It's a crying shame when love is so cruel
Will you walk out on me tonight if I run back to you

I threw out old letters -- tore pictures off the wall
It's hard to kill the memories when they help to break the fall
I hate that I love you -- your pleasure brings such pain
But living here without you has been driving me insane

CHORUS

Staring out my window into the pouring rain
The same old dream is haunting me again...

CHORUS

If I run back to you -- if I back to you
If I run back to you

Staring out my window.....

BARELY CLOSE ENOUGH

When the lights go out
And he holds you
Do you think of me
As your lips collide?
When you make love
Are you really in it?
Or do you just pretend
That you're satisfied?
Well you can call that satisfaction
Call it anything you want

BUT DON'T CALL IT LOVE, DON'T CALL IT LOVE
MAY BE CLOSE ENOUGH, BUT DON'T CALL IT LOVE

You got shiny cars
A house made of mirrors
Security
All expenses paid
Whatever you want
Whenever you want it
And your friends all say
That you've got it made
You can call that being happy
Call it anything you want

BUT DON'T CALL IT LOVE, DON'T CALL IT LOVE
MAY BE CLOSE ENOUGH, BUT DON'T CALL IT LOVE
Nothing in this world ever comes for free
'Cept the good, good love that you got from me
Hey, hey

SOLO

Don't you remember
When we were inseparable?
Or did you just forget
All the love we had?
You gave it all away
For those things he gives you
You may be living good
But don't your heart feel bad?
Well you can call that satisfaction
Call it anything you choose

BUT DON'T CALL IT LOVE, DON'T CALL IT LOVE
MAY BE CLOSE ENOUGH, BUT DON'T CALL IT LOVE
Nothing in this world ever comes for free
'Cept the good, good love that you got from me

DON'T CALL IT LOVE
DON'T CALL IT LOVE

There's a place among the stars
Where you can watch the lives go by
And you can see so far
And as you float above the clouds
Nothing's ever gonna hurt
Or bring you down
Bring you down

Little angel up in Heaven
You're the shining star who's
Glowing so brightly
Little angel
Little angel in my heart
You're the one
Who always keeps me believing
Little angel in my heart

I feel you guide me every day
The voice of kindness
Calling me with the words you say
And as you float above the clouds
Nothing's ever gonna hurt
Or bring you down
Bring you down

Little angel up in Heaven
You're the shining star who's
Glowing so brightly
Little angel
Little angel in my heart
You're the one
Who always keeps me believing
Little angel in my heart

YOUR GIRL

Will you be a man
With a heart of gold
Will you take me in your arms
When the wind gets cold
Will you be my best friend

Now I don't need perfection
Cause we all got flaws
But if I jump in
Better be good cause
I won't get burned again
Life's too short to waste my precious time
Got to know you'll make it right if I'm

Gonna be your girl
Gonna be your girl
Gonna be your girl
Your girl

If you want a class act
Like I am
Better be someone
Who can understand
One hundred percent and nothing less

And if you give it all
Be my lovin man
Hold my heart and soul
Gentle in your hands
You'll win my respect
Life's too short to waste my precious time
Got to know you'll make it right if I'm

Chorus

Rap:

If you want outta the party
Then just say the word
If you're not up for the challenge
Boy I won't be hurt
I'd rather cut my losses
And just walk away
Cause I can't take another round
Of heart break
I got standards that I'm keepin
If you don't measure up
Then you'll never get to fill
My lovin cup
Not tryin to be mean
Or to push you away
Just givin you a warnin
In advance when I say

Will you stand by me and walk the line
Got to know you really will be mine

THIS VOW

Ooo, many's the time I've
Tried to hide behind myself and
Ooo, many's the time I've
Tried to run away but
You held on to me
Through my craziness
I never would have laid to rest

If you hadn't of been so sweet and tender
If you hadn't of just refused to surrender
Maybe if you had ever let me down
I wouldn't be here now
Standin' here to take this sacred vow

Ooh, many's the day I've
Asked myself what might have been if
You had never convinced my heart to try again and
I reach for words that
Will somehow express
How much I know I would have missed

If you hadn't of been so sweet and tender
If you hadn't of just refused to surrender
Maybe if you had ever let me down
I wouldn't be here now
If I hadn't of known you loved me so much
If I hadn't of been so sure you'd never give up
Maybe if you had ever let me down
I wouldn't be here now
Ready now to break these chains around me
To knock this lonely wall of mine down
Standin' here to take this sacred vow
This vow

I've Changed My Mind

Couldn't wait to be free
So everything would be just how I wanted it to be
If I was all by myself
I wouldn't always have to think of someone else
But I realize today
Now that I have my way

I don't like being free
I've changed my mind
It's not for me
Cause since I said we were through
Baby all I can do
Is dream about you
I know I've been unkind
But now that I've had time

The world's turned gray for me
The color has been drained away
From everything I see
I don't enjoy anything
Cause all I ever do
Is keep remembering you
That look of hurt in your eyes
When I told you goodbye

Chorus
I've changed my mind

I know that it's true
I've made a mistake
I'm willing to do
Whatever it takes
To get you back girl

Chorus

Now that I can see
Anyone I wanna see
And now that I can do
Anything I please
I've changed my mind
Please come back to me girl
I've changed my mind

In Good Times And Bad

You never know who your friends are
When things are going well
But the minute your luck takes a bad turn
It's not too hard to tell
Where are the fair-weather friends who surrounded me
They were only along for the ride
Now they're all gone but the one i depended on
Is still standing here by my side

'Til i found you
I never had
Someone to love me
In good times and bad
Whatever i am
And whatever i have
Baby it's yours
In good times and bad

Now the hard times they don't last forever
And baby i see it all now
The minute it starts gettin' better
Everybody'll come back around
But i ain't holding my breath any longer
'Til my so-called friends reappear
I've got the one thing i need more than anything
Baby as long as you're here

Chorus

Sometimes i think the heavens could open
The stars could tumble into the ocean
And waves high as mountains could rise out of the sea
And when the lightning and the thunder was over
I could look back over my shoulder
And you'd still be there with me

Chorus

GOT NO

I got no time for playing stupid games
I got no use for wasting one more day
I got no patience for people thinking life is fair
Give me one good reason why I should care

I got no rules for life that I can't bend
I got no doubt that I'm my own best friend
I got no problem with fighting or to pay my dues
No one ever handed me a silver spoon

Got no illusions
Got no place to hide
No rose colored glasses
Covering my eyes
Got no delusions
Of a fairy tale life
Got no expectations
Things'll turn out right

I got no luck on which I can depend
I got no cash, got no rich relatives
Got no intention of waiting on the lottery
Everything I've got, I got because of me

I got no plans tonight that I can't break
No calls to take, and no big dates
I got no dream some guy is gonna rescue me
Cinderella's someone that I'll never be

EVERYTHING

You call and tell me
It happened once again
Somebody broke your heart
So you tell it to your best friend
Why can't you see it
I really don't know why
When all the time I'm here
Right before your eyes
Can't ya see the way I look at you
Something's goin on
There in every little thing I do
My love is so strong
Tell me am I getting through
Boy have you figured it out
So what would you say if I
Told you right now
I wanna be everything
You ever need
Your wildest dreams
You dream of
I wanna be everything
You ever need
So come to me for love

I tried to tell you
But I was so afraid
I thought that if you knew boy
Everything would change
Kinda get the feeling
That you may want me too
But it would take forever
If I left it up to you boy
I can see the way you look at me
Something's goin on
Can you figure out how good we'd be
It's getting so strong
Tell me am I getting through
Boy have you figured it out
So what would you say if I
Told you right now

chorus

I wanna be the one who gets to
Kiss you each night
I wanna be the one who gets to
Hold you tight
I wanna be the one someday
Somewhere somehow
So what would you say if I
Told you right now
More than just a friend
Would you be there till the end

chorus

NOT GONNA CRY OVER YOU

You always look in my direction
when you want to play
You say you feel a strong connection
before you walk away
I'm tired of playing all your games now
'cause you win 'em all
I only wanted your affection
But you're giving me
A broken heart and blood shot eyes
I don't want to pay that price
I'm not gonna cry over you
Not over you

You say I need to chill out
This ain't obsession at all
But every night I keep waiting
For you to call
And just as I'm about to give up
You come around
but it don't mean nothing
When you giving me a
Broken heart and blood shot eyes
I don't want to pay that price
I'm not gonna cry over you
Not over you
Na na na na na
You're here today and then goodbye
But you're not gonna make me cry
I won't give you another try 'cause
I ain't got the time
To listen to your lies
No, I'm not gonna cry over you
Not over you
I'm not gonna cry over you

SHE'S GOT THE LOVELOOK

I can tell by the way that she's walkin'
One false move and she'll stumble and fall
She's so dazed and confused when she talks
She says nothing at all

Watch her eyes stare off into nowhere
Only hears what she's wanting to hear
And her heart's beating way outta time
And the reason is clear

SHE'S GOT THE LOVELOOK
SHE'S GOT THE LOVELOOK
SHE'S GOT THE LOVELOOK
SHE'S GOT THE LOVELOOK

I can see that her body is changing
All her emotions are takin' control
She's resigned to the fact that she's trapped
And she can't let go

There's a purpose to what she is doing
Every move a reflection of mine
And I know by the smile in her eyes
It's just a matter of time

SHE'S GOT THE LOVELOOK
SHE'S GOT THE LOVELOOK
SHE'S GOT THE LOVELOOK
SHE'S GOT THE LOVELOOK

Where in the world did she come from?
What does she want me to see?
I will go whereever she wants to go
Now anything can happen
I can be whatever she needs
Just a touch and I lose all control

SHE'S GOT THE LOVELOOK
SHE'S GOT THE LOVELOOK
SHE'S GOT THE LOVELOOK
SHE'S GOT THE LOVELOOK

I WANNA BE CLOSE TO YOU

When I wake up each morning
And you're lying next to me
There's nowhere in this whole wide world
That I would rather be, oh no
Ain't no place I'd rather be

So move a little closer
C'mon and hold me tight
There ain't no better way I know
To start the day off right, yeah yeah
Let's start the day off right

There's nothing that needs doing
That we can't put aside
Let's leave it til tomorrow
Right now one thing's on my mind

I WANNA BE CLOSE TO YOU
Like fire to a spark
OOOH, I WANNA BE CLOSE TO YOU
Like the beating of my heart

Why don't we just call in sick
And stay in bed all day
The world will get on fine without us
It'll be okay, oh yeah
We can lie in bed all day

Ooooh, Let's not waste another minute
Time is slipping by
So wrap your arms around me, baby
Let me show you why

I WANNA BE CLOSE TO YOU
Like fire to a spark
OOOH, I WANNA BE CLOSE TO YOU
Till we can't tell us apart

Anything I have ever dreamed
I can see, in your eyes
Baby, it's so clear to me
Where I wanna spend my life

I WANNA BE CLOSE TO YOU
OOOH, I WANNA BE CLOSE TO YOU

Ooooh, Let's not waste another minute
Time is slipping by
So wrap your arms around me, baby
Let me show you why

I WANNA BE CLOSE TO YOU
Like fire to a spark
OOOH, I WANNA BE CLOSE TO YOU
Like the beating of my heart

I WANNA BE CLOSE TO YOU
I'm the fire, you're the spark, baby
OOOH, I WANNA BE CLOSE TO YOU
Till we can't tell us apart

Me and you, you and me, nowhere else I'd rather be than close to you
You and me, me and you, all I wanna do, I wanna be close to you
Me and you, you and me, nowhere else I'd rather be than close to you
You and me, me and you, all I wanna do, I wanna be close to you

I Should Say Goodbye

Well it's so misleading when everything feels like it's a dream
Then you awake to find maybe it's all wrong
This was another mistake, another time I put my heart on the line
Don'tcha hate it when it's wrong but it feels so right

Will you burst that big fat bubble I'm keeping the hope of "us" in

I should say "Goodbye my love"
I should say goodbye
Goodbye my love
Something's telling me
I should say goodbye
Goodbye my love
I should say goodbye
Goodbye my love
I can see I should say goodbye

Did I think that everything that glitters would hold a brighter ending than this
Guess I thought you'd never let me down
You lifted me up so high I thought we'd flight but now we're blowing away with the wind

Now I know I couldn't feel the breeze coming with you underneath my skin
I should say "Goodbye my love"
I should say goodbye
Goodbye my love
Something's telling me
I should say goodbye
Goodbye my love
I should say goodbye
Goodbye my love
I can see I should say goodbye

I'm Swingin'

Something strange is coming over me
And nothing is the way it used to be
Yesterday my heart was saggin'
I was dragging down the street
Today I feel like braggin' to everyone I meet

Nothing much has changed now I should say
The sun came up like every other day
So maybe it's the way you got me dancing last night
To that music they were playing, that just felt so right

Now I'm swingin'
Like no one's ever swung before
Feel like singin'
Like a bell that's never rung before
It's just like I hoped love would be
You came along and suddenly
I'm feelin' wild and free, now I'm swingin'

Nothing much has changed now I should say
The sun came up like every other day
So maybe it's the way you got me dancing last night To that music they were playing,
that felt so right

Now I'm swingin'
Like no one's ever swung before
Feel like singin'
Like a bell that's never rung before
It's just like I hoped love would be
You came along and suddenly
I'm wild and free, take a look at me

Now I'm swingin'
Like no one's ever swung before
Feel like singin'
Like a bell that's never rung before
It's just like I hoped love would be
You came along and suddenly
I'm feelin' wild and free, now I'm swingin'
Yeah I'm swingin'
