"Don't Try To Close A Rose"

"Don't Try To Close A Rose"


They say that every thing you do
Turns out all wrong
That you're bound to lose
And you love me too much
Take me along

Ah baby don't ever try to close a rose
After it blooms to the tuned
Of a spring time day
It won't work any way
'cos once it knows the sun it grows
And keeps on growing
Knowing it must say goodbye
To the field and the sky

So don't you worry about me
You could never make me unhappy
Cause we both have been touched
By the spring time sun
We already won
As long as you want me
I'll be right there
But with a life time of hard times
We gotta love
Babe we can share

Ah baby don't ever try to close a rose
After it blooms to the tuned
Of a spring time day
It won't work any way
'cos once it knows the sun it grows
And keeps on growing
Knowing it must say goodbye
To the field and the sky

Ah baby don't ever try to close a rose
After it blooms to the tuned
Of a spring time day
It won't work any way
'cos once it knows the sun it grows
And keeps on growing
Knowing it must say goodbye
To the field and the sky

"Down, Down, Down"

"Down, Down, Down"


Every now and then
I begin again
I push the rock up the mountain
Though I'm learning slow
Now I think I know
How to step aside
When the rock begins to slide

Down, down, down
To the bottom of the valley
Down, down, down
But I know it won't crush me anymore

Every now and then
I think I see a friend
I push the rock up the mountain
Ah, getting close to what I never knew
I just step aside
When the rock begins to slide

Down, down, down
To the bottom of the valley
Down, down, down
But I know it won't crush me anymore

Love's not a simple thing
If you're all alone
And finding someone to care
And when you reach him
He's not there
It slides

Down, down, down
To the bottom of the valley
Down, down, down
But I know it won't crush me anymore

Here I go again
Faith has time to lend
I push the rock up the mountain
Hope it won't be just
Another joke on me
But I just step aside
If the rock begins to slide

"Dream Baby"

"Dream Baby"


I found the boy for me
He's my dream baby

He doesn't now that I
That I almost die when
When he walks by and says hello
He's not like the guys in books
He's not really great on looks, but
But I don't care, I love him so

And I feel so good
Whenever he's around
Feel so good when he's around

Oh, oh, oh
I dream of him each night
I dream that he holds me tight
And somehow I'll make that
Dream come true

I'm gonna pray for the
Pray for the day he says
"Hey, pretty baby, I love you"

And I feel so good
Whenever he's around
Feel so good when he's around

I dream of him each night
I dream that he holds me tight
And somehow I'll make that
Dream come true

I'm gonna pray for the
Pray for the day he says
"Baby, I love you"
Oh, oh, woo oh, oh
I love you

"Dressed To Kill"

"Dressed To Kill"


I slip into my shoes and slide into the night
I'm on the loose you're in my sights
You know it's gonna hurt you but it's just no use
You fall in love they always do
And I'm waiting for the next one to fall

I'm dressed to kill and you know that I will
We're dancing in the dark with my hands around your heart
Oh, heads will roll and blood will spill
But how can you resist when baby I am dressed to kill

I know your love is strong but it's all it in vain
Beware the skies the lipstick stains
And he can't even see that he's just another one
It's far too late he's too far gone
And I'm waiting for the next one to fall

I'm dressed to kill and you know that I will
We're dancing in the dark with my hands around your heart
Oh, heads will roll and blood will spill
But how can you resist when baby I am dressed to kill

How can you resist when baby I am dressed to kill

You know I'm the only one
I can make you come undone
And you'll be part of me
From now until eternity

I'm dressed to kill and you know that I will
We're dancing in the dark with my hands around your heart
Oh, heads will roll and blood will spill
But how can you resist when baby I am dressed to kill

"Early Morning Strangers"

"Early Morning Strangers"


Every mornin' many late night lovers
Wake up to become early mornin' strangers
Things always look different in the light of day
Every mornin' many late night lovers
Just silently stare, seein' all the changes
It's hard to make small talk
When there's nothin' to say

Early mornin' strangers
Lookin' at each other
That is all we are to one another
Early mornin' strangers
Who wake up to discover
It's just no good without love
To live without love is no life at all

Somewhere baby
There's got to be more
Somewhere baby there's a life worth livin'
Where nobody takes more than they are givin'
Where love is forever
Not just for a day

Early mornin' strangers
Lookin' at each other
That is all we are to one another
Early mornin' strangers
Who wake up to discover
It's just no good without love
To live without love is no life at all

Bye bye baby
I hope you find your love
And I hope I find mine
I hope you find your love
And I hope I find mine

"Easy To Be Hard"

"Easy To Be Hard"


How can people be so heartless
How can people be so cruel
Easy to be hard
Easy to be cold

How can people have no feelings
How can they ignore their friends
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no

Especially people who care about strangers
Care about evil and social injustice
Do you only care about the bleeding crowd
How about a needing friend

How can people be so heartless
How can people be so cruel
Easy to give in
Easy to help out

How can people have no feelings
How can they ignore their friends
Easy to be cold
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no
Easy to be proud
Easy to be cold
Easy to say no
Easy to be proud

"Elusive Butterfly"
(originally by Bob Lind)

"Elusive Butterfly"
(originally by Bob Lind)



You might wake up some morning
To the sound of something moving
Pass your window in the wind
And if you're quick enough to rise
You'd met the fleeting glimpse
Of someone's fading shadows

Out on a new horizon
You may see the boat in motion
Of a distant carib wind
And if you need press your ear
You might hear footsteps running
Through an open meadow

Do be so concern it will not harm you
It's only mistress doing something
I'm not sure of
Cross my dreams with myths and wonders
I'll take the brightest elusive butterfly of love

You might have heard my footsteps echo softly
Through the distant, from canyons of your mind
I might have even called your name
As I ran safely after something to believe in

You might have see me running
Through the long abandon ruins
Of the dreams you left behind
If you remember something
They're the brightest path to follow close
I remember dreaming

Do be so concern it will not harm you
It's only mistress doing something
I'm not sure of
Cross my dreams with myths and wonders
I'll take the brightest elusive butterfly of love

"Emotional Fire"
(with Bonnie Tyler and Michael Bolton)



I can't wait 'til I see you baby
I can't wait 'til the night comes fallin' down
I gotta see you again

And even if it couldn't be forever
I'd trade a lifetime for this night together
Hold on, hold on

My heart is burning with the heat of this

Emotional fire, every time I see you
I'm on fire, every time we touch
Can't you feel me burning with desire?
Baby feel warm, give me some
Emotional fire, emotional fire

There's a feelin' when I'm here beside you
Couldn't leave you and I wouldn't try to
Baby, I'd only need you again

There ain't nothing that can break this fever
The love gets stronger and the passion deeper
Hold on, hold on

I can't let go 'cause there's no stopping this

Emotional fire, every time I see you
I'm on fire, every time we touch
Can't you feel me burning with desire?
Baby feel warm, give me some
Emotional fire, emotional fire

I can't wait until I see you baby
I can't wait 'til the night comes fallin'
Hold on, hold on

My heart is burning with the heat of this

Emotional fire every time I see you
I'm on fire, every time we touch
Can't you feel me burning with desire?
Baby feel warm, give me some
Emotional fire, emotional fire

Emotional fire
Emotional fire
Emotional fire

"Fast Company"

"Fast Company"


You know you love your man
Two hundred miles an hour
Drinking up the fumes
And you're never more alive
When you feel his power
You gotta have it today
Cause a woman gets hot
You're racing for the man in the cloak
Ah you're living your life on fire
You see, but it's out of bounds company

(Fast company)
I with the lights, heart beats
Dancing to the music
Lord I just burst into fire
No wonder I can't sleep
I got a feeling today
I wanna get all hot
All my dreams explodes with a shot
Lord I'd be living
My life on the Caribbean Sea
But it's out of bounds company

(Fast company)
You see you're on the way to come
You say you're one your way to go
Baby the heart's speaking paradise
But you - Help me
Get your big life
Fast company

(Fast company)
I with the lights, heart beats
Dancing to the music
Lord I just burst into fire
No wonder I can't sleep
I got a feeling today
I wanna get all hot
All my dreams explodes with a shot
Lord I'd be living
My life on the Caribbean Sea
But it's out of bounds company

(Fast company)
You see you're on the way to come
You say you're one your way to go
Baby the heart's speaking paradise with me
Fast Company

"Favourite Scars"

"Favourite Scars"


Best jump
Like do we feel we're going nowhere
Unless we're falling
We're not ready to give up until we're crawling
Don't make it easy on ourselves

Climbing
Risk it all if you ain't living you're surviving
Tell me why you tip your toes when you could dive in
Don't be scared to hurt yourself

Take your heart back off the shell

Love covers you up in a landslide
Love pulls you under like a riptide
Love's when you crash trying to hang glide
Love's when you run and then there's no light

Love is a sword when you've got no defense
Love is the rock we throw ourselves against
Love is the healing of a broken heart
The story behind all of my favorite scars
Oh, all of my favorite scars
All of my favorite scars
Oh, all of my favorite scars

High-wire
Don't look down, because below you is a raging fire
But love is waiting for you on the other side
We're not easy on ourselves

So take your heart back off the shelf

Love covers you up in a landslide
Love pulls you under like a riptide
Love's when you crash trying to hang glide
Love's when you run and then there's no light

Love is a sword when you've got no defense
Love is the rock we throw ourselves against
Love is the healing of a broken heart
The story behind all of my favorite scars
Oh, all of my favorite scars
All of my favorite scars
Oh, all of my favorite scars

Love covers you up in a landslide
Love pulls you under like a riptide
Love's when you crash trying to hang glide
Love's when you run and then there's no light

Love is a sword when you've got no defense
Love is the rock we throw ourselves against
Love is the healing of a broken heart
The story behind all of my favorite scars
Oh, all of my favorite scars
All of my favorite scars
Oh, all of my favorite scars
