"Hold On, I'm Comin'"

"Hold On, I'm Comin'"



Don’t you ever feel sad
Lean on me when times are bad.
When the day comes and you’re down,
In a river of trouble and you want me around
Just hold on, I'm coming,
Hold on, I'm comin’

I’m going my way, your lover.
If you get cold I'll be your cover.
Don’t have to worry cause I'm here,
No need to suffer darlin’, ‘cause I'm here
Hold on, I'm comin’
Hold on, I'm comin'
Hold on, I'm comin’
Hold on, I'm comin'

Reach out to me for satisfaction
Call my name and start a chain reaction
Don’t you ever feel sad,
Lean on me when times get bad
When the day comes and you’re down,
In a river of trouble and you want me around,

Hold on, I'm comin’
Hold on, I'm comin’
Hold on, I'm comin’
Hold on, I'm comin’
Hold on, I'm comin,
Hold on, I'm comin’

"Hound Dog"

"Hound Dog"



You ain’t nothin’ but a hound dog
Snoopin’ round the door.
You ain’t nothin’ but a hound dog
Snoopin’ round the door.
You can wag your tail, I ain’t gonna feed you no more

Well they told me you were high classed,
I can see though that
Well they told me you were high classed,
I can see though that
Oh woman I know you ain’t no real cool cat

You ain’t nothin’ but a hound dog
Snoopin’ round the door.
You ain’t nothin’ but a hound dog
Snoopin’ round the door.
You can wag your tail, I ain’t gonna feed you no more

You make me feel so bad
Make me weep and more
You make me feel so bad
Make me weep and more
You ain’t looking for a man
What you’re looking for is just a pawn

You ain’t nothin’ but a hound dog
Snoopin’ round the door.
You ain’t nothin’ but a hound dog
Snoopin’ round the door.
You can wag your tail, I ain’t gonna feed you no more

"I Can't Tell You Why"

"I Can't Tell You Why"



People fall apart, I can't tell you why
People make mistakes
Comes as no suprise
People break your heart
Can't look you in the eye
People need forgiveness, I'll tell you why

I'll tell you why and I've been there
Don't make light if you don't care
Because you just might fall
And need some understanding

The world can be so cold
I can't tell you why
It's hard to see it straight
With teardrops in your eyes
Get pushed until you break
No one by your side
The world can bring you down
I'll tell you why

I'll tell you why and I've been there
Don't make light if you don't care
Because you just might fall
And need some understanding

You got to share around some loving
With each other
There comes a time when we all need it
In our lives

People stand and cry
I can't tell you why
Watch the world roll by
Their oceans have run dry
And people hide there faces
You can't catch their eyes
People need forgiveness, I'll tell you why

I'll tell you why and I've been there
Don't make light if you don't care
Because you just might fall
And need some understanding

"I Found A Love"

"I Found A Love"



I found a love, I found a love
I found a love that I need,
I found a kiss I just wanna tell you girl I can’t resist
I found a love that I need,
And sometimes I call her now
I said

The way the woman walk, you know she looks so fine
The way the woman talk, she’s my hearts desire
But if she leave me, I say I would die
Sometimes I’ll call her in the midnight hour
Don’t leave me baby

"I Put A Spell On You"

"I Put A Spell On You"



I put a spell on you
Because you’re mine

Stop the things that you doing.
I ain’t lyin’, I, I ain’t lyin’.
You know I can’t stand it
When you walk around.
You know I can’t stand it
When you put me down.

I put a spell on you.
Because you’re mine,

I love you. I love you. I love you!
Anyhow
I don’t care if you don’t want me
I love you, all the time
I put a spell on you.
Because you’re mine

"I Wanna Get Started With You"

"I Wanna Get Started With You"



Pushin’ ever westward, across the great divide
Beyond the darling river
Towards the outback sky

The lawless and the brave, searchin’ for a dream
When all they found was sand and stone
Where rivers once had been

They tried to follow nomads, like ghosts in desert dreams
And suffered in a sunburnt land…
Down in the last frontier

They sent them from the motherland
Into there greatest fear
To live and die for freedom’s cry
Down in the last frontier

A drover rides in search of work, across the sweeping plains
A farmer kneels in a hungry church
As his children prey for rain

Back in a land across the sea
They found another war
They asked the anzacs to believe
What there fightin’ for

They sent them to another land
Into there greatest fear
To fight and die for freedom’s cry
And for the last frontier

People in the lucky land, who searched for paradise
Are reachin’ out for somethin’ more
And don’t believe there lies

The promises of hope and work, still ringing in there ears
The hungry and homeless cry
Down in the last frontier

"I'd Die To Be With You Tonight"

"I'd Die To Be With You Tonight"



Ah yeah, let me tell you all about it
I've been thinkin about you night and day
Sure been restless since you went away
You took something from me against my will
Touched a nerve in me thats tingling still
You just snuck up behind me
When my resistance was low
And nows a hell of a time to find i can't let you go
Got your first letter just the other day
Since I got it I can't put it away
I just sit and read it over and over and over again
As if the words that you wrote could bring this hurt to and end

Well you just left me here waiting
Left a wound that won't heal
God your so far away you don't know how i feel
So say you'll take a chance on this heart of mine
Don't make me the one that you left behind
And I'm not saying anybody's wrong or right
Just know I'd die to be with you tonight

I count the hours each time till your gone
I don't have to let you leave me
It makes no sense at all
If i have to follow you all around the world
I'd be willing to do anything to get to you girl

You just left me here waitin
Left a wound that won't heal
God your so far away you don't know how i feel
So say you'll take a chance on this heart of mine
Don't make me the one that you left behind
And I'm not saying anybody's wrong or right
Just know I'd die to be with you tonight
Ah yeah
So say you'll take a chance on this heart of mine
Don't make me the one that you left behind
I'm not saying anybody's wrong or right
Just know I'd die to be with you tonight
Oh
I'd die to be with you tonight
Ah ha ha ha
I'd die to be with you tonight

I count the hours each time that your gone
Oh
I'd die to be with you tonight
I don't have to let you leave me
It makes no sense at all
I'd die to be with you tonight
I'd die to be with you
I'd die to be with you tonight
I'd die to be with you
I'd die to be with you tonight
I'd die to be with you

"I'd Rather Be Blind"

"I'd Rather Be Blind"



Ain't it strange how opposites attract
Can't explain but it's a proven fact
All I know, can't turn my back on you
Here we are, we're drawn into a flame

No one's fault, no one we can blame
Can't deny you feel the same way too
And I tell you'll be always close at hand
When you feel you'll finally understand

You and I were meant to be as one
Hey girl, we got a love
That I swear will stand the test of time
Can't be here with me,

I swear I would rather be blind
I was lost and had nowhere to turn
You came and I began to learn how it feels
You touched down deep in my soul

When you find you need someone to hold you tight
And everything around you don't feel right
Call on me and I'll be there by your side
Hey girl, we got a love that I swear
Will stand the test of time
Can't be here with me, I swear I'll go out of my mind

Oh believe me now, you are the light
That will lead me through the darkest night
If I can't see you with me
I swear I would rather be blind

And I tell you that I will always be closer, hey
When you feel you finally understand
You and I are meant to be as one
Hey girl, you are the light
That will lead me through the darkest night

If I can't see you with me
I swear I would rather be blind
Oh believe me now we got a love
That I swear will stand the test of time
I swear I would rather be blind

Baby, we got a love
That I swear will stand the test of time
Believe me girl, you are the light
That will lead me through the darkest night
I would rather be blind
