"I Want Your Love Tonight"

"I Want Your Love Tonight"



Oh, love is like a flame, now
Upon a candle
Get it burnin' brightly
And it's a-too hot to handle
Oh, baby
(I want your love tonight)
Come on and satisfy me
Baby, don't deny me
(I want your love tonight)
Excuses, boy don't hand me
Just love and understand me

Oh, patiently I've waited
For your sweet kissin'
Though we steady-dated
You know, somethin's been a-missin', oh, oh
(I want your love tonight)

I don't want to sit here and talk
(I want your love tonight)
I don't want to go for a walk
(I want your love tonight)
Oh, take me up to heaven
All the way to cloud eleven

I want a-your love tonight
Oh, yeah I do
Come on and love me, baby
Oh, come on and satisfy me
Baby, don't deny me, yeah
(I want your love tonight)
Love me, love me, baby
(I want your love)

"I Will Always Want You"

"I Will Always Want You"



Don't go
There's so much left to tell you
You just don't know how need you
I never said how I cared
Until now that you're leaving
I can't hide what I'm feeling

Please wait, there's so much left to tell you
I never said how I loved you
Oh, can't you stay one more day?
And I'll try to show all of the love
That I used to keep from you

Words alone can't make you love me
But how else am I to say to you
That I know I will always want you?

Help me, I can't stop myself crying
Help me, 'cause I feel like I'm dying
Please can't you stay with me?
'Cause I can't live without you, my love

Words alone can't make you love me
But how else am I to say to you
That I know I will always want you?, oh, oh, oh, oh

So, help me, I can't stop myself crying
Help me 'cause I feel like I'm dying
Please can't you stay with me?
'Cause I can't live without you, my love

"I Wish I'd Never Loved You"

"I Wish I'd Never Loved You"



I wish I'd never loved you
I wish I'd never wanted you so much
And never thrilled to your touch
And I would not be lonely and crying
And hurting deep inside
Alone with a need that can't be satisfied

I wish I'd never loved you
I wish I'd never given you my heart
And watch you tear it all apart
And I would not be tortured, tormented and cheated
And surely my heart would not be broken in two

I saw you with another
I watched you hold her tenderly
And I could see as you kissed her
You'd never come back to me, oh

I wish I'd never loved you, mmm
I wish you'd never burned me with your kiss
Oh, how can I go on like this?
And I would not be tortured, tormented and cheated
How I wish I'd never loved you

And I could see as you kissed her
You'd never come back to me

Oh, I wish I'd never loved you
I wish you'd never burned me with your kiss
Oh, how can I go on like this?
And I would not be tortured, tormented and cheated
How I wish I'd never loved you
Oh, I wish I'd never loved you
How I wish I'd never, no, no, never
I'd never loved you

"I'd Rather Leave While I'm In Love"

"I'd Rather Leave While I'm In Love"



I'd rather leave while I'm in love
While I still believe the meaning of the word
I'll keep my dreams and just pretend
That you and I were never meant to end

Too many times I've seen the rose die on the vine
Somebody's heart gets broken
And usually it's mine
I don't wanna take the chance of being hurt again
And you and I can't say goodbye

So, if you wake and find me gone
Oh, babe, just carry on
You see, I need my fantasy
I still believe it's best to leave while I'm in love, ooh

Too many times I've seen the rose die on the vine
Somebody's heart gets broken, yeah
And usually it's mine
I don't wanna take the chance of being hurt again
And you and I, we can't say goodbye

So, if you wake and find me gone
Hey, babe, just carry on
You see, I need my fantasy
I still believe it's best to leave while I'm in love, oh, oh
I'd rather leave while I'm in love

"I'll Be Faithful"

"I'll Be Faithful"



I would be your water when your thirsty mouth was dry
I would be your sunshine when clouds are in the sky
I would stand that close beside you
And be your only friend
And I have promised love forever
There will be no end

Ooh, hoo, I'll be faithful
Ooh, hoo, I'll be true, too
Ooh, hoo, I'll be faithful, yes I will now
Ooh, hoo, oh my, true to you

Now I would be your music if you would like a song
I would sleep beside you when the winter's cold and long
I would be the pole to guide you, never would I bend
And I have promised love forever
There will be no end

Ooh, hoo, I'll be faithful, oh, yeah
Ooh, hoo, I'll be true too, mmm
Ooh, hoo, I'll be faithful, oh, yeah
Ooh, hoo, oh my, true to you, ooh, hoo

I have promised love forever
There will be no end

Ooh, hoo, I'll be faithful, oh, yeah
Ooh, hoo, I'll be true, too
Ooh, hoo, I'll be faithful, yes I will
Ooh, hoo, oh my, true to you

"I'll Love You For A While"

"I'll Love You For A While"


Yeah, I will love you for a while
Just how long I cannot say
Long before love grows old
I'll be on my way

While there's fire in your eyes
I will hold you to my heart
Oh, but when the fire dies
We will have to part

Love is strange
While now it makes us glad
When our love's no longer new
It'll make us sad, yeah

So, I will love you for a while
More than that I will not tell
When I leave you
You will say that I loved too well

Yeah, love is strange
While now it makes us glad
When our love's no longer new
It'll make us sad, yeah

So, I will love you for a while
More than that I will not tell
And when I leave you
You will say that I loved too well
Say that I loved too well, boy
Say that I loved too well, yeah
Say that I loved too well-ell
Say that I loved too well, child
Say that I loved too well

"I'm Coming Home Again"

"I'm Coming Home Again"



I'm not as crazy as I used to be
Some of my devils upped and left me free
To find a quiet space
I'm not as out of place

I'm not as lonely as I was before
I don't go in 'less there's an open door to leave by
I'm starting to believe my own existence has a right to be

And I'm comin' home again
It's been too long a time
Gettin' back what's mine
And I can't remember why I went away
But it's lookin' now like maybe I can stay

The poets cried for dreams they never saw
The only certainty is nothin's sure
And most things stay the same
Or go back where they came

And though my answers still are undefined
By takin' chances I can start to find some reasons
Somethin' to believe in
I can make it through
I can make it through

And I'm comin' home again
It's been too long a time
Gettin' back what's mine
And I can't remember why I went away
But it's lookin' now like maybe I can stay

Oh, and I'm comin' home again
It's been too long a time
Gettin' back what's mine
And I can't remember why I went away
But it's lookin' now like maybe I can stay

"I'm Gonna Leave You"

"I'm Gonna Leave You"



I've been trying hard to see
Just what you want of me
But it's no good boy
I'm setting you free
'Cause I need you so much more
With each day that passes by
You don't seem to care
It's making me cry

So I'm packing up my bags
Gonna make my getaway
Get myself together
I can't go on this way
Oh, baby, baby
I'm gonna leave you
I'm gonna leave you, baby

This lonely feeling deep in my mind
'Cause I can't turn back
If I leave you behind
But I gotta do it now
Yes, I gotta turn away
Hold me one more time
Don't ask me to stay

It's so hard so say goodbye
But it's you I'm thinking of
It would never work out
I know you're not in love with me
Oh, baby
I'm gonna leave you
Said, I'm gonna leave you

It's over and I'm walking out on you
You'll never get the chance to feel untrue
Though I love you
And I need you
And I want you
I'm still walking out on you

Darling, though it hurts me so inside
I can't take no more
Gonna lose my mind
So I'm packing up my bags
Gonna make my getaway
Get myself together
I can't go on this way
Oh, baby, baby
I'm gonna leave you
Said I'm gonna leave you, baby
Yes I'm gonna leave you, baby
Oh, I'm gonna leave you baby
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

"I've Been Wrong Before"

"I've Been Wrong Before"



The night we met
The night that I won't forget
You seemed what I'd been waiting for
But baby, I've been wrong before

You held me tight
And everything seemed just right
I couldn't ask for me
But baby, I've been wrong before

He used to smile at me
And a-hold my hand like you do
Then he left me
And a-broke my heart in two

I see your face
And feel your warm embrace
You're all that I adore
But baby, I've been wrong before

Oh baby, I've been wrong before

"I've Got A Good Thing"

"I've Got A Good Thing"



I got a good thing
I got a good thing
I got a good thing going

Take the sun and take the moon
And stars that shine so bright
All I need is my guy
And everything's all right

Everything about him thrills me
The way he looks at me just kills me
He's got a way of getting to me
Every kiss just goes right through me

I got a good thing
You know I got a good thing, baby
I got a good thing going

Take the rainbow from the sky
Oh, I don't really care
I will have a pot of gold
As long as he is there

I never knew such sweet affection
And it's all in my direction
If he left there's no mistaking
My poor heart would start to break and

I got a good thing
You know I got a good thing going
I got a good thing going, yeah

I got a good thing, yeah
You know I got a good thing going
You know I got a sweet thing baby
Everything is everything, baby
Everything is uptight, all right, out of sight
Yeah, I got a good thing going, yeah
You know I got a good thing
