"Love In A Dangerous Time"

"Love In A Dangerous Time"



In the heart of our country
There's a killer without a gun
We're afraid to be no longer free
To trust a loving one
So I say a prayer for you

In the heart of the darkness
There's a killer without a name
Nowhere to hide
No mountain side...
The city's all the same
So please say a prayer for me

Oh listen people...

Out of the dark silence
How in the world will we survive
Love in a dangerous time

In the heart of our children
Where the simple things are true
There's so much to learn
When the world has turned
Turning on you
Open eyes show us what to do

Fight our way through open doors
Blind to what we see before us
Fools who make the rules
Commit the crimes...let's lay it on the line

Out of the dark silence
How in the world will we survive
Love in a dangerous time

In the heart of the darkness
In the heart of the country
In the heart of our lovers
In the heart of the children

Listen people...
We can play it cool or play it wise
When life is on the line

"Love Out Loud"

"Love Out Loud"


I like this room
It's got me
Dancin' down and dirty on my knees
Get lit up
Tell those lies
Wicked enough to melt your ice
I can see baby
Touch on me
I can see most any possibility
Got to do it. Got to use all my love
Too much is never enough
You've got to sing out
You've got to sing out
You've got to sing out
Sing Out Sing Out

[Chorus:]
Love out loud
Tell me what you wanna do
Love out loud
You've got to love out loud
Don't look down
Tell me what you wanna do
Love out loud

Got no time
Time to choose
Wait a second now you're gonna loose the mood
Got to do it
Got to use all your love
Too much is never enough
You've got to sing out
You've got to sing out
You've got to sing out
Sing Out Sing Out

[Chorus]

"Love TKO"
(originally by Teddy Pendergrass)

"Love TKO"
(originally by Teddy Pendergrass)



Looking back over my years
I guess I shedded some tears
I told myself time and time again
This time I'm gonna win

But another fight things ain't right,
I am losing again
Take a fool to lose twice
And start all over again

I think I'd better let it go
It looks like another love TKO
Think I'd better let it go (What you mind about it, girl)
Let it go, baby (Oh Yeah)
Looks like another love TKO

Tried to take control of love,
Love took control of me
Because you lose all thoughts, sense of time
And have a change of mind

Takin' the bumps and the bruises
Of all the things of a two-time loser
Tryin' to hold on, faith is gone
It's just another sad song

"Love You Like A Brother"

"Love You Like A Brother"


It was always you and me and him
A whiskey sour, beer and gin
We were having fun
When the night was over
You'd go off together leaving me alone,
All alone
I stayed up every night, I had to find a way
I had to get to you
So I told you he was stepping outside
I said when you broke down and cried
Why don't you come to me

[Chorus:]
She said I love you like a brother
And that's how it's got to stay
Because I don't need no reminder
Of the love that went away
And the more I desire,
The less it does inspire
Because she says I remind her
Of the love she left behind

I found myself in the same old place
In the bar, another lonely night to spend
But the first thing I saw when I walked in
Was my almost lover, and my ex best friend
She was drinking all alone
And he was on the telephone
They wouldn't look at me
I went outside, I wanted to cry
It's a lonely life, ain't what it used to be

[Chorus 2x]

"Make You Stay"

"Make You Stay"


I should have heard you talkin'
Now I'm a dead man walking
I should have paid more mind
To the little things, the little things

Why is love so complicated
Maybe that's the way we made it
Just tell me you won't go
Say it isn't so
Like on the radio
And if I could I'd write that song for you

[Chorus:]
If a song could make you cry
If a song could make you say goodbye
Could it change your mind
If a song could Make You Stay

It's a backward chain reaction
It's a lack of satisfaction
That makes our love breakdown
To the little things, the little things

Gone 180 degrees
Come back to me
Just tell me you won't go
Say it isn't so
Like on the radio
And if I could I'd write that song for you

[Chorus]

If a song could break you down
Then a song could turn our love around
Can you hear that sound
Can your hear that sound
If a song can Make You Stay

"Man On A Mission"

"Man On A Mission"


I can walk all alone through a river of fire
Cause my heart is true
Put my soul on the line
That's what I'd do
There's a power in passion
That I can't control
It's a natural reaction
I can't let it go

[Chorus:]
I'm a man on a mission to love you
I'm gonna make you mine
I'm a man on a mission
I can't stop tryin' now
I'm gonna make you mine

Where angels fear to fly
That's where I go with my foolish pride
I got too close to the sun
I was the one looking for you

Feel the power in passion
When it's takin' control
It's a natural reaction
And I can't let it go

[Chorus]

Can't you see what you mean to me?
How much I need you
You know we owe each other honesty
So tell me what can I do
To get to you

"Maneater"

"Maneater"


She'll only come out at nights
The lean and hungry type
Nothing is new
I've seen her here before
Watching and waiting
Ooh, she's sittin' with you
But her eyes are on the door

So many have paid to see
What you think
You're gettin' for free
The woman is wild
A she-cat tamed
By the purr of a Jaguar
Money's the matter
If you're in it for love
You ain't gonna get too far

(Oh-oh, here she comes)
Watch out boy
She'll chew you up
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
She's a maneater
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
Watch out boy
She'll chew you up
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
She's a maneater

I wouldn't if I were you
I know what she can do
She's deadly man
And she could really rip your world apart
Mind over matter
Ooh, the beauty is there
But a beast is in the heart

(Oh-oh, here she comes)
Watch out boy
She'll chew you up
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
She's a maneater
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
Watch out boy
She'll chew you up
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
She's a maneater

[Instrumental Interlude]

Ooooooooh
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
Here she comes
Watch out boy
She'll chew you up
(Whoa-oh, here she comes
(Watch out) she's a maneater
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
(She's a maneater)
Ooh, she'll chew you up
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
Here she comes, she's a maneater
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
(Watch out)
She'll only come out at night, ooh-oh
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
Here she comes
She's a maneater
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
(She's a maneater)
The woman is wild, whoooa
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
Here she comes
Watch out boy, watch out boy
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
Oh, watch out, watch out
Watch out, watch out
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
(Yeah, yeah) she's a maneater
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
(She's a maneater)
She's watching and waiting, ooh-oh
(Oh-oh, here she comes)
Oh, she's a maneater

"Mano A Mano"

"Mano A Mano"



See a lot of people walking around and around
Terra firma turned them upside down
Too scared to reach out maybe afraid of what they'll find
But a hand stuck in a pocket come up empty every time
Now you better believe the writing on the wall
All for one one for all
Woman to woman and man to man
Face to face heart to heart hand to hand

Mano a Mano
Hand to Hand
Mano a Mann

See a lot of people fighting for the left or the right
Fighting people see black or white
You'd like to go your way sure I'd like to go mine
But we're all in this together running out of time
Woman to woman and man to man
Heart to heart and hand to hand
Set on example for all the little boys and girls
For the hand that rocks the cradle can rule the world

Mano a Mano
Hand to Hand
Mano a Mano

"Marigold Sky"

"Marigold Sky"



If you had a dream did it happen
If you stop and think for a little while
Try to make up faces that once were real
Even though it seemed like a lifetime
Wasn't really more than a short ride
But it left me memories
That time can't steal

Oh My...Marigold Sky
Gold leaf reflections on the ocean
Yeah I was lost in the light
Like sand in a shell

She holds me
We were tryin' to be so enlightened
Movin' on from father, son and holy ghost
Trippin' on the passion, hooked on love
Was I ever yours were you ever mine
Did we ever loose
What we tried to find
Wasn't all that passion a dream enough

Oh My...Marigold Sky
Gold sea reflections on the ocean
Yeah, I was lost in your light
That time was so right

I realize, realize
When a love is lost! It's all so real
Broken heart needs oh so long to heal (oh no)
Though the magic happened some time ago
I know it's alive
It'll never grow cold
Marigold
Marigold Sky
If you had a dream did it happen
If you stop and think for a little while
Can you bring back times that were once so real

Oh My...Marigold Sky
Gold leaf reflections on the ocean
Yeah I was lost in the light
