The Lucky One
|
|
You can break away or you can stay You choose your life, you're free to fly Go on and fly Go on and fly She had it in her own time To get away and try to find Somewhere to go, to run She saw the world through open eyes And never let a soul inside Don't come too close, so close Baby thinks she's smart, but what about her heart? Like a wild bird of prey, like a thief in the night You can take what you want, and you don't think twice 'cos the world's in your hands, you got all you want And you won't change a thing, you're the lucky one Oh, the lucky one Oh, the lucky one Her soul was strong, her heart was tough And when she felt she had enough She tore herself away Love in the dark is all you see Get what you want, not what you need You look the other way Never letting on to what it's all become Like a wild bird of prey, like a thief in the night You can take what you want, and you don't think twice 'cos the world's in your hands, and you've got all you want And you won't change a thing, you're the lucky one Oh, the lucky one Oh, the lucky one Life is a dream, the lucky one, the lucky one, the lucky one Oh, life is a dream, the lucky one Life is a dream, the lucky one, the lucky one Baby thinks she's smart, but what about her heart? Like a wild bird of prey, like a thief in the night You can take what you want, and you don't think twice 'cos the world's in your hands, and you've got all you want And you won't change a thing, you're the lucky one Oh, the lucky one Oh, the lucky one Oh, the lucky one Oh, the lucky one |

Self Control
|
|
Oh, the night is my world City light painted girl In the day nothing matters It's the night time that flatters In the night, no control Through the wall something's breaking Wearing white as you're walkin' Down the street of my soul You take my self, you take my self control You got me livin' only for the night Before the morning comes, the story's told You take my self, you take my self control Another night, another day goes by I never stop myself to wonder why You help me to forget to play my role You take my self, you take my self control I, I live among the creatures of the night I haven't got the will to try and fight Against a new tomorrow, so I guess I'll just believe it That tomorrow never comes A safe night, I'm living in the forest of my dream I know the night is not as it would seem I must believe in something, so I'll make myself believe it That this night will never go Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Oh, the night is my world City light painted girl In the day nothing matters It's the night time that flatters I, I live among the creatures of the night I haven't got the will to try and fight Against a new tomorrow, so I guess I'll just believe it That tomorrow never knows A safe night, I'm living in the forest of a dream I know the night is not as it would seem I must believe in something, so I'll make myself believe it That this night will never go Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh You take my self, you take my self control You take my self, you take my self control |

Ti Amo

Ti amo, God how I love you so My heart just won't let go Day after day I'm still holdin' on Even though you're gone Ti amo, wasn't I good to you? I did all that I could do To make you want to be here with me I thought you loved me I can't believe you could just turn and leave Y'did it so easily You pulled my world out from under me Look what you've done to me How could you end it this way After the love that we made? God how I wish you had stayed Can't you see that I just want you back? Ti amo, I never had a clue that I was losin' you You never once let me know you were lettin' me go Oh, I guess it was there in your eyes Guess it was there in your sighs Guess it was there in your lies I was blind then, couldn't face the end Ti amo, thought we'd go on and on Thought we had something strong You pulled my world out from under me Look what you've done to me How could you end it this way After the love that we made? God how I wish you had stayed Can't you see that I just want you back? Ti amo, God how I love you so My heart just won't let go Day after day I'm still holdin' on Even though you're gone Guess it was there in your eyes Guess it was there in your sighs Guess it was there in your lies I was blind then, couldn't face the end Ti amo, thought we'd go on and on Thought we had something strong You pulled my world out from under me Look what you've done to me How could you end it this way After the love that we made? God how I wish you had stayed Can't you see that I just want you back? Ti amo, wasn't I good to you? Did all that I could do To make you want to be here with me I thought you loved me I can't believe you could just turn and leave Y'did it so easily You pulled my world out from under me Look what you've done to me Ti amo, God how I love you so My heart just won't let go Day after day I'm still holdin' on Even though you're gone |

Heart
|
|
It's the hour of the night time When the demons come to call And the shadows seem to whisper And I'm wishin' I could crawl inside a dream That would free me from the pain But I'm smothered by the silence of a heart gone insane Oh, heart, are you still beating? Is there enough of you left to break? How could he take you and tear you apart? I never knew somebody would do it I never knew somebody could do it Never dreamed anybody would do this to my heart Now the wine has worked its wonder and it's makin' me forget But the memories lie awaiting like an uncollected debt That must be paid at the fadin' of the stars By a heart that is already wearing one too many scars Oh, heart, are you still beating? Is there enough of you left to break? How could he take you and tear you apart? I never knew somebody would do it Never knew somebody could do it Never dreamed anybody could do this to my heart Heart, are you still beating? Is there enough of you left to break? How could he take you and tear you apart? I never knew somebody would do it I never knew somebody could do it Never dreamed anybody would do this to my Heart, are you still beating? Is there enough of you left to break? Heart, are you still beating? Is there enough of you left to break? |

Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow
|
|
Tonight you're mine, completely You give your love so sweetly Tonight the light of love is in your eyes But will you love me tomorrow Is this a lasting treasure Or just a moment's pleasure Can I believe the magic of your sights And will you love me tomorrow Tonight with words unspoken You say that I'm the only one But will my heart be broken When the night meets the morning sun I'd like to know that your love Is a love I can be sure of So tell me now and I won't ask again Will you still love me tomorrow Will you still love me tomorrow Will you still love me tomorrow |

Satisfaction
|
|
Don't know what you're doin', but you're doin' somethin' I think I like Not sure what I'm feelin', but it feels like somethin' so right The sound of your sigh, the touch of your skin Is takin' me places I've never been I wanna go there again and again 'Cos you give me -- Satisfaction, when you're touchin' me You start a chain reaction deep inside of me Satisfaction, I just never knew that I could feel this way Oh babe, I love you Holdin' you close now, I keep thinkin' of times before When nothin' was good enough, I was always left wantin' more You took my world, turned it around I know you won't be lettin' me down 'cos baby, you showed me that love could be found When you gave me -- Satisfaction, when you're touchin' me You start a chain reaction deep inside of me Satisfaction, I just never knew that I could feel this way Oh babe, I love you Satisfaction, when you're touchin' me You start a chain reaction deep inside of me Satisfaction, I just never knew that I could feel this way Oh babe, I love you Satisfaction, when you're touchin' me You start a chain reaction deep inside of me Satisfaction, I just never knew that I could feel this way Oh babe, I love you |

Silent Partners
|
|
We have to take our chances, we have to keep it down We have to steal our kisses when nobody's around We have to hide the tenderness inside To make love on the sly, you say it's for the better We have to speak in riddles to cloak the things we say We have to watch our whispers, not to give ourselves away We have to run in shadows in the dark We have to stand apart when they see us together So we're livin' like silent partners, sneakin' like thieves in the night Can't let it show, gotta keep it low, so no one knows We're silent partners, never come to the light It'll never be right, whatever we do You need me too much and I'm just not givin' up on you We have to keep the secret burnin' on our lips We'd both be hurting someone if they caught us here like this We have to bear this burden that we share Knowin' our affair just can't go on forever And we're livin' like silent partners, sneakin' like thieves in the night Can't let it show, gotta keep it low, so no one knows We're silent partners, never come to the light It'll never be right, whatever we do You need me too much and I'm just not givin' up on you Silent partners I can't let it show, we gotta keep it low, so no one knows We're silent partners, are we ever gonna come to the light? It'll never be right, whatever we do You need me too much and I'm just not givin' up Silent partners, sneakin' like thieves in the night Can't let it show, gotta keep it low, so no one knows We're silent partners, are we ever gonna come to the light? Can't let it show, gotta keep it low, so no one knows We're silent partners, sneakin' like thieves in the night |

Breaking Out
|
|
She breathes a sigh, watching as her life goes by Caught in the trap of a workin'-day world Tired of just being somebody's girl She's feelin' her frustration buildin' up inside But tonight, she's gonna give it up Break the chains and let it out Tonight, she'll say "I've had enough" I'm never going back Breaking out, into the night Breaking out, she's taking flight Breaking out, out in the street Breaking out, gotta break free He counts the days, wishin' he could get away Stuck in the rut of an empty routine Nowhere to go with his hopes and his dreams Prepare himself for the moment of his great escape And tonight, he's gonna make his move Take a chance and risk it all Tonight, he's gonna cut it loose Never looking back Breaking out, into the night Breaking out, he's taking flight Breaking out, out in the street Breaking out, gotta break free There's gonna come a time when you just leave it all behind Burst out of your prison and just fly away Tonight, they're gonna make their move Take a chance and risk it all Tonight, they're gonna cut it loose Never looking back Breaking out, into the night Breaking out, they're taking flight Breaking out, out in the street Breaking out, gotta break free |

Take Me
|
|
I fancied you for a very long time You finally got around to makin' your move But when you picked me up, you looked so fairy I wish we could dispense with the preliminaries Oh, so much for subtlety I can't wait for you to get your hands on me Oh, take me, take me, please Oh, take me, take me Don't leave me at the door with a good night kiss It's guys like you can give a girl a complex I've never been so in love before I'm not playin' hard to get, that's for sure Oh, so much formality I can't wait for you to put your hands on me Oh, take me, take me, please Oh, take me, why don't you take me? Oh, take me, come on boy Oh, take me, take me Oh, don't let me scare you away It's not like me to come on strong But love like this just can't be wrong So I'm gonna make it easy Oh, take me, take me Oh, take me, take me Oh, oh, take me, take me Oh, take me, come on take me It's the holdin' back makes me want you more I'm not playin' hard to get Oh, why don't you take me, boy? Oh, oh, take me, come on, take me Oh, take me, why don't you take me? |

With Every Beat of My Heart
|
|
As I look out of my window I see your face in each shadow on the street below me And as I hear the hard rain falling I wonder will you be calling, do you still wanna hold me? I think will you turn away? Do you wanna say it's over? Will you really come? Was it just for fun, I wonder Is it easy to see, that every time you touch me With every beat of my heart, there's thunder inside Every beat of my heart, I need you tonight Every beat of my heart, I'm reachin' for you I need you now, with every beat of my heart As I lay down in this dark room, I hear your voice like a soft tune, echo all around me And as I feel the cold wind blowing I wonder will you be showing, or forget you ever found me? I think will you turn away? Do you wanna say it's over? Will you really come? Was it just for fun, I wonder Is it easy to see, that every time you touch me With every beat of my heart, there's thunder inside Every beat of my heart, I need you tonight Every beat of my heart, I'm reachin' for you I need you now, with every beat of my heart With every beat of my heart, there's thunder inside Every beat of my heart, I need you tonight Every beat of my heart, I'm reachin' for you I need you now, with every beat of my heart With every beat of my heart, with every beat of my heart Every beat of my heart, oh, every beat of my heart Every beat of my heart, deep inside of me something's died, oh, Every beat of my heart, every beat of my heart, oh, Every beat of my heart, every beat of my heart Something's died in me, deep inside of me |
