"Long After Tonight Is All Over"
(originally by Jimmy Radcliffe)



Tonight will be for the first time
I have learned what my lips are for
And darling, now that I've kissed you
I'm craving to kiss you more

Let me tell you
Long after tonight is all over
Long after tonight is all gone
I'll be yours
For ever and a day and
Yours, come anything that may
You'll always be just everything to me, yeah

Here in my arms
When I hold you
I can feel that the world is mine
Don't go away
Don't you leave me
Or I'll cry 'til the end of time

Let me tell you
Long after tonight is all over

Long after it's all gone
I'll be yours
Come anything that may and
Yours, for ever and a day
You'll always be just everything to me, yeah, mmm, mmm

Let me tell you
Long after tonight is all over
Long after it's all gone
I'll be yours
For ever and a day and
Yours, come anything that may
You'll always be just everything to me, yeah,

Long after tonight is all over
Long after tonight is all over
After it's over and done
After it's over and done, hey, boy, yeah
After it's gone, hey, yeah
After it's gone
Long after

"Losing You"

"Losing You"



How many tears do you cry
If love should break your heart in two?
How many tears will I cry
Now that I know I'm losing you?

I can't stop wanting you
And no matter what you do
You're still a part of me
Even though I'm losing you, oh

How many years will go by
Before my heart begins to mend?
Waiting and wondering why
I never thought our love could end

I try forgetting you
But you're still here on my mind
It would take a miracle
But someday maybe I'll find

That I'm in the loving arms of someone
That I'll know, know he's the someone
Who'll kiss all the heartache away
And come that day
I won't mind losing you

Yes, I try forgettin' you
But you're still here on my mind
It would take, yeah, a miracle
But someday maybe I'll find

That I'm in the loving arms of someone
That I'll know, know he's the someone
Who'll kiss all the heartache away
And when he comes to me that day
I won't mind losing you, oh, oh
I won't mind losing you, yeah
I won't mind losing you

"Losing You (Just A Memory)"

"Losing You (Just A Memory)"



Layin' about, lying in bed
Maybe it was somethin' I thought I said
With the tempo of the damned, the temptation of tomorrow
I don't know if I can give you anything but sorrow

They stay alive this late on Radio Five
But the pen that I write with won't tell the truth
But the moments that I care about are moments that I treasure
Better take another measure for pleasure

Losing you
Is just a memory
Memories don't mean that much to me
Losing you
Is just a memory
Memories don't mean that much to me

I count the pages of the letter I write
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine
Tearin' up the sheets of love this hand could not disguise
I'll start to count again and close my eyes

Losing you
Is just a memory

Memories don't mean that much to me
Losing you
Is just a memory
Memories don't mean that much to me

Now you're here
I'm here too
Can be this easy for me and you

Now you're here
I'm here too
Be this easy for me and you

Losing you
Is just a memory
Memories don't mean that much to me
Losing you
Is just a memory
Memories don't mean that much to me

Layin' about, lying in bed
Could be something that I thought I said

"Lost"

"Lost"



I was a sad and lonely girl
All alone in this big world, baby, (hey, baby) baby
Lost in a state of misery
Not a soul to comfort me, baby (hey, baby)

I couldn't find no help
Didn't know what to do with myself
Oh, I was standing in confusion
So badly disillusioned
When you wrapped your arms around me
I knew love had found me

I was lost, so long
But found in the nick of time
You know I was lost, so long
But found in the nick of time
Oh, I was lost

I thank the lord that you
Are the one who came to my rescue, baby, (hey, baby)
Thanks for me and this heart of mine
You came just in time, baby, baby (hey, baby)

I couldn't find my way, ooh
Don't you hear what I say?, yeah
Well I was standing in confusion
So badly disillusioned
When you wrapped your arms around me
I knew love had found me

I was lost, so long
But found in the nick of time
You know I was lost (so lost), yeah
But found in the nick of time
Well, I was out here in desperation
No means of communication
Just looking for a sign
Then you threw out your lifeline

Lost, so long
But found in the nick of time
You know I was lost (so lost), yes I was
But found in the nick of time
Well, I was out here in desperation
No means of communication
Just looking for a sign
Then you threw out your lifeline
Oh, so lost, so long
But found in the nick of time
You know I was lost (so lost), yeah
But found in the nick of time
Well, I was out here in desperation

"Love Me By Name"

"Love Me By Name"



I tried so hard to be carefree
Rolling out of someone's bed
Into the sunshine
But the sun, oh, coming up
Doesn't always bring the light, oh
And somehow, somehow I feel, oh
It's just not right
No, not for me

Well it's been so long
Since I've been loved by name, oh-ho
Love me by name, ah
Love me by name
Come on, come on, ooh-hoo
Love me

Here I feel afraid, ooh
And I don't know why
You're surely not the first I've had, ah, oh
Who held me gently, yeah
Oh, who took the sweet time
Just to ask me about me
Well, well maybe this time
Oh god, let it be
Oh, it's such so, so, so long
Since I've been loved, oh, by name

Love me by name
Ah, love me by name
Come on and love me, oh baby
Yes, love me, aah, aah

Oh, love me by name, oh
Why don't you love me, ah
Come on, come on, ahh, ahh
Sweet baby
Oh won't you love me, yeah
Love me by name

"Love Power"

"Love Power"



When we walk
Down the street
We don't care
Who we see
Or who we meet

Don't have to run
Don't have to hide
'Cause we got something burning inside

We got love power
It's the greatest power of them all
We got love power
And together we can't fall

Sometimes we're up
Sometimes we're down
But our feet are always on the ground
We always laugh
Don't have to cry
And this is the reason why

We got love power
It's the greatest power of them all, hey, hey, hey
We got love power
And together we can't fall, hey

Sometimes we're up
Sometimes we're down
But our feet are always on the ground
We always laugh
Don't have to cry
And this is the reason why

We got love power
It's the greatest power in the world
We got love power
And together we can't fall

We got love, hey, love power
It's the greatest feeling of them all, hey, hey, hey
We got love, oh, power
And together

"Love Shine Down"

"Love Shine Down"



Ooh, hoo, once love was a fire
That came and lit my way
I felt the fire die about a month ago
And now I look at my man
And I know he's goin' away

And now, I want that man
Mmm, I need that man
And I got to get back into his heart
I said love shine down on me
Love shine down on me
Love shine, light my way back into his heart

I, I stood beside him
When nobody else, nobody wanted to
Well I've been down, yes I have
But I've never, never been broken
'Til the day that he told me
The sweet lovin' life was through

I said, I want that man
Ooh, I need that man
And I got to get back into his heart
I said love shine down on me
Love shine down on me
Love shine, light my way back into his
Love shine
Oh, love shine
I said shine, shine, shine
Oh, down on me
I want it, yes, I need it
Oh, ho, oh, ho
I said love shine down on me
Love shine, light my way back into

 

[fox69]

"Lovin' Proof"

"Lovin' Proof"



I know some lovers would be satisfied
With sweet "I love you's" and some pretty lines
But that won't get you in this heart of mine
No, you'll never steal my heart away
With just words, sweet words that you say
It is all in the things that you do
I'm telling you

If you want me to believe
That I'm the only one you need
I need lovin' proof
I need lovin' proof
Baby, hold me in your arms
And show me something from the heart
Give me lovin' proof
I need lovin' proof from you

And if the love you got is strong and true
And if you love me like you say you do
Your tender touch will tell the honest truth
And your kiss could never tell a lie
'Cause I'd see it in your eyes
There is one way to ease any doubt
I tell you now

If you want me to believe
That I'm the only one you need
I need lovin' proof
I need lovin' proof
Baby, I won't be impressed
Unless I get some tenderness
Give me lovin' proof
I need lovin' proof, oh, oh, from you, oh, oh

(I need lovin' proof)
If the love is right
(I need lovin' proof)
Prove it, prove it all night
(I need lovin' proof)
From you
'Cause you'll never steal my heart away
With just words, sweet words that you say
It is all in the things you do
I'm telling you, telling you baby

If you want me to believe
That I'm the only one you need
I need lovin' proof
I need lovin' proof
Baby, hold me in your arms
And tell me something from the heart
I need lovin' proof
Give me lovin' proof, oh, oh, from you

If you want me to believe
That I'm the only one I need
I need lovin' proof
Lovin' proof
Baby, hold me in your arms
And show me, show me
Give me lovin' proof
I need lovin' proof
Ooh, baby, baby
Ooh, ooh
Give me, give me, give me

"Make It With You"

"Make It With You"


Ah, ha, have you ever tried
Really reaching out for the other side?
I may be climbing up rainbows
But baby, here goes
Ooh, dreams, they're for those who sleep
Life is for us to keep
And if you're wonderin' what this all is leadin' to
I wanna make it with you
I really think that we could make it, ooh

No, you don't know me well
And every little thing only time will tell
But you believe the things that I do
And we'll see it through
Oh, life can be short or long
Love can be right or wrong
And if I choose the one I'd like to help me through
I'd like to make it with you
I really think that we could make it, yeah, yeah, ooh

Ah, ha, and if I choose the one I'd like to help me through
Ooh, hoo, I'd like to make it with you, ah, ha
Ooh, baby, ah, I wanna make it with you
Ooh, let's make it, I wanna make it with you
Ooh, baby, yeah, I wanna make it with you
Ooh, hoo, let's make it, I wanna make it with you
Ah, make it, let's make it
I wanna make it with you
