"I Got Your Number"

"I Got Your Number"


I got your number
I know you're gonna be there when I call
I got your number
I'd say you aint got no choice at all
No no no no no

I took your head from lonely
Chased your pain away
I gave you more than loving
In my special way
I shocked you out of boredom
Made you a faithful wife
Gave you an education
On the facts of life
In you there's come a change
I'll be damned I got you trained
And thats why I.. I.. what I know

I got your number
I know you're gonna be there when I call
I got your number mama
No you aint got no choice at all
No no no no no no

Why listen to your girlfriends
When they can plainly see
That the boy that they call lover
Aint half the man as me
Hey I don't have to prove nothing
Long as you're satisfied
Cos if you need more loving
There's plenty more inside yeah
Just tell them I'm glad that he's my man
Something they'll never understand
That is why I....I...

I got your number
I know you're gonna be there when I call
I got your number baby
So you aint got no choice at all
I got your number girl
I know you're gonna be there when I call
I got your number mama
No you aint got no choice at all
No no baby oh baby baby baby

My hat goes off to you
For lovin me the way you do
Even though I know pretty baby that I..I..

I got your number
I know you're gonna be there when I call
I got your number mama
Said you aint got no choice at all
I got your number baby
No you aint got no choice at all
I got your number mama
Oh you know you better be there when I call

I got your number girl oh oh no

"I Just Go"

"I Just Go"


Don't know why I wandered off last night
I was having a good time and feeling all right
Feeling right at home with you
Guess I hadn't had enough though or something
And I just go

Saw some of my old running boys over by the back door
Having a laugh thought I'd say hello been a while
Then one thing leads to another I guess
And anyway I just go

I didn't know till you left word for me
Your concern about where I'd disappeared to
And it never crossed my mind
That I'd worried you or been unkind in doing so

And I'm so so sorry I took off so fast
That you felt abandoned and left out like that
Please understand
You see I just don't pay much mind sometimes..
Sometimes I just go

I need you to know
How I long to do all that you want me to
I'd go anywhere at all any time you call
To comfort you

And I take every word or your advice
I'd make any kind of sacrifice to let you know
But there's this other voice calling me sometimes
And I just go

"I Should Care"

"I Should Care"


I should care
I should go around weeping
I should care
I should go without sleeping

Strangely enough I sleep well
'cept for a dream or two
But then I count my sheep well
Funny how sheep can lull you to sleep

So I should care
I should let it upset me
I should care
But it just doesn't get me

Maybe I won't find someone
As lovely as you
But I should care
And I do

So I should care
I should let it upset me
I should care
But it just doesn't get me

Maybe I won't find someone
As lovely as you
But I should care
And I do

"I Will Forever Sing (The Blues)"

"I Will Forever Sing (The Blues)"


I never dreamed
I never dreamed before I started
That I'd chosen such a hard hard road to choose
Farewell sweet dreams
But now it seems
That I will forever sing the blues
Hey that I will forever sing the blues

Hey lookin back
It could have been predicted
Yes lookin back
It could easily have been foretold
Oh but we were blind
And who at that time
Who was worried 'bout the winter and cold mmmm
Who was worried 'bout the winter and the cold mmm
Well alright!

Well excuse me if you catch me feelin sorry
If my smile gets hidden behind last night's headlines
Well it's not good news
But I'll sing the blues
Life keeps getting harder all the time
Yes life keeps getting harder yeah all the time
Yes life keeps getting harder yeah all the time
All the time yeah

Whoah all the time

Yeah just keep on yeah
Just keep on yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
All the time... all the time
It just keeps on yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
All the time... whoah all the time
Whoah alright yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Alright yeah

"I Wish I Knew"

"I Wish I Knew"


I wish I knew
Someone like you could love me
I wish I knew
You place no one above me
Did I mistake this for a real romance
I wish I knew
But only you can answer

If you don't care
Why let me hope and pray so
Don't lead me on
If I'm a fool just say so
Should I keep dreaming on
Or just forget you
What shall I do
I wish I knew

[Bridge]

"I'll Be Long Gone"

"I'll Be Long Gone"


I'll be long gone
By the time you make up your mind
Gotta make my own way
Around the kinda misery I find

I'll send you my best
Of regards and the rest
I'll leave up to your own sense of time

Yes I'm gonna get up and make my life shine
I'm gonna get up and make my life shine
I've made up my mind... to make my life shine

I'll be high flyin'
By the time you come round to me
Todays a new day
Different from tomorrow you'll see

Good luck with your path
But it wasn't built to last
Or we might take it differently

I'm gonna get up and make my life shine
I'm gonna get up and make my life shine
I've made up my mind... to make my life shine

Good luck with your path
But it wasn't built to last
Or we might take it differently

I'm gonna get up and make my life shine
I'm gonna get up and make my life shine
I've made up my mind
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I'm gonna get up and make my life shine
I'm gonna get up and make my life shine
I'm gonna get up and make my life shine
I'm gonna get up and make my life shine
Get up... yeah yeah yeah........

"I'll Be The One"

"I'll Be The One"


Tired of seeing some play thing
Acting like a toy
Tired of watching some fool
Trying to be your boy
And I don't like to be the one
Seeing you in tears
Standing in the shadows
Staring out at love again

But I'll be the one

I'm the one reminding you
That you've got a choice
I'm the one to let you know
That I hear your voice
Time and again I catch you
Smiling from within
But standing empty hearted
Standing in the wings again

I'll be the one

I can't be the one to catch you
Every time you fall
I ain't the one to answer
Every time you call
But babe I'm gonna be the one
One to see you through it all

Oh oh I'll be the one

I'm the one reminding you
That you've got a choice
I'm the one to let you know
That I hear your voice
Time and again I catch you
Smiling from within
Standing empty hearted
Standing in the wings again

I'll be the one

I can't be the one to catch you
Every time you fall
I ain't gonna be the answer
Every time you call
But babe I'm gonna be the one
The one to see you through it all

Oh oh I'll be the one
Oh oh I'll be the one

I'll be the one to get you home

Smiling from within
Standing in the wings again
I'm tired of seeing some play thing
Acting like a toy

Running round in circles
Wearing out your name
Tired of watching some fool
Play the same old game
I'll be the one to get you home
When all the rest have gone away

Oooh hoo hoo hoo I'll be the one

"I'll Remember April"

"I'll Remember April"


This lovely day will lengthen into evening
We'll sigh goodbye to all we've ever had
Alone where we have walked together
I'll remember April... and be glad

I'll be content you loved me once in April
Your lips were warm and love and spring were new
But I'm not afraid of autumn and her sorrow
For I'll remember... April and you

The fire will dwindle into glowing ashes
For flames and love live such a little while
I won't forget but I won't be lonely
I'll remember April... and smile

[Bridge]

"I'm A Fool To Care"

"I'm A Fool To Care"


I'm a fool to care
When you treat me this way
I know I love you
But what can I do
I'm a fool to care.

I'm a fool to cry
When you tell me goodbye
You left me so blue
When you were untrue
I'm a fool to care.

I know I should laugh
And call it a day
But I know I would cry
If you went away.

I'm a fool to care
When you don't care for me
Why should I pretend
I'd lose in the end
I'm a fool to care.

I know I should laugh
And call it a day
But I know I would cry
If you went away.

I'm a fool to care
When you treat me this way
I know I love you
But what can I do
I'm a fool to care.
