"They Don't Make Them Like They Used To"

"They Don't Make Them Like They Used To"



They don't make 'em like they used to, those guys
And I can't get used to the way that it is today
No one to look up to, hard times, and though I try
I just can't find the reason these days
And it seems like the seasons are passing me
They're going by, nothing to hold on to, rough times.

And it goes on, so count on me, and I'll count on you
You can lean on me, two of us stronger
We won't be alone any longer
Now and for always we will be good friends
Count on me, into any storm, we're gonna survive it
Into any fire, we'll carry on.

Know that one day you and me will both be old friends
And we'll sit on the sofa and talk about how
They don't make 'em like they used to, you'll see
As time goes on, so count on me, and I'll count on you
In a world like this, when nothing's sure
And people are afraid, I'll be here for '
Now and for always we will be good friends
Count on me, they don't make it now like they used to
They're not gonna last like you and me, I'll be there.

Oh, always we will be, year by year
Depend on me, into any storm, we're gonna survive it
Into any fire, just count on me, I'll be there
Oh, tough guys, you and me, year by year
They will see, they don't make it now like they used to
They're not gonna last like you and me...

"They Just Don't Make 'em Like You Anymore"

"They Just Don't Make 'em Like You Anymore"



I've looked everywhere there is a love affair
I must replace, racing through the people chase
But still surrounded by memories of your face

They just don't make 'em like you anymore
Not up in the mountains or down by the shore
Something shine in the fashion in the smile that you wore
They just don't make 'em like you anymore

In the eyes of someone new I wait for a glimpse of you
But it's never there, one among the precious few
Your kind of person is becoming so rare

They just don't make 'em like you anymore
Like those white lace dresses at the second hand store
Or sweet old songs filtering out through the floor
They just don't make 'em like you anymore

Fashion comes and the fashion goes
And the gossip magazines and the videos
A brand new actress on a screen
In a brand new style of clothes
But by any other name a rose is still a rose

And it grows in my memories
Wonder if you still are the same while I look for a remedy
Someone with a tender heart to clean your name

They just don't make 'em like you anymore
It's an easy thing to learn but so hard to ignore
Now I know exactly what I'm looking for
They just don't make 'em like they made 'em before

They just don't make 'em like you anymore

"This Masquerade"

"This Masquerade"



Are we really happy here
With this lonely game we play
Looking for words to say?
Searching
But not finding understanding anyway
We're lost in a mas--masquerade

Both afraid to say
We're just too far away
From being close together from the start
We tried to talk it over
But the words got in the way
We're lost inside this lonely game we play

Thoughts of leaving disappear
Ev'ry time I see your eyes
No matter how hard I try
To understand the reasons
That we carry on this way
We're lost in this masquerade

Both afraid to say
We're just too far away
From being close together from the start
We tried to talk it over
But the words got in the way
We're lost inside this lonely game we play

Thoughts of leaving disappear
Ev'ry time I see your eyes
No matter how hard I try
To understand the reasons
That we carry on this way
We're lost in this masquerade

"This Woman"

"This Woman"



Well, she walks like you
In so many ways
It's a different look
Different time of day

One look in her eyes
How can I make you understand
She's the one good thing
That's happened in so many years
There's been so many tears
Since we lost the dream
And the winter came

And you said goodbye
And I don't want another reason to cry

You be all you wanna be
You got the longest night
Baby, you'd be alone
I share my dream with someone else
I don't wanna talk about her

This woman
She's tearing my world apart
This woman
Don't know what she's doing
This woman
Touches me and I lose control
She's living inside my soul

This woman
I don't even know her name
This woman
Don't know what she's doing
This woman
Goes through me like a hurricane
Falling in love again

To make those long legs mine
Is all I care about
She's got so much to give
Got to be the one

Got to have someone to hold
I got to make it with that woman
When the nights get hot

She goes walking by
And the city light
And the city lights
They make you blind
I go insane

But am I crazy if she feels the same
You believe what you believe
You got the darkest night
Baby, you'd be alone

I take my love to someone else
She was made to measure for me

This woman
She's tearing my world apart
This woman
Don't know what she's doing
This woman
Touches me and I lose control
Falling in love again

This woman
She's tearing my world apart
This woman
Don't know what she's doing
This woman
Touches me and I lose control
Living inside my soul

This woman
I don't even know her name
This woman
Don't know what she's doing
This woman
Goes through me like a hurricane
Falling in love again

"Three Times A Lady"

"Three Times A Lady"



Thanks for the times that you've given me
The memories are all in my mind
And now that we've come to the end of our rainbow
There's something I must say out loud

You're once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you
Yes, you're once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you
I love you

You shared my dreams, my joys, my pains
You made my life worth living for
And if I had to live my life over again, dear
I'd spend each and every moment with you

You're once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you
Yes, you're once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you
I love you

When we are together, the moments I cherish
With every beat of my heart
To touch you, to hold you, to feel you, to need you
There's nothing to keep us apart

You're once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you
Yes, you're once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you
I love you

"Through The Years"

"Through The Years"



I can't remember when you weren't there
When I didn't care for anyone but you
I swear we've been through everything there is
Can't imagine anything we've missed
Can't imagine anything the two of us can't do

Through the years
You've never let me down
You turned my life around
The sweetest days I've found
I've found with you
Through the years
I've never been afraid
I've loved the life we've made
And I'm so glad I stayed
Right here with you
Through the years

I can't remember what I used to do
Who I trusted whom, I listened to before
I swear you've taught me everything I know
Can't imagine needing someone so
But through the years it seems to me
I need you more and more

Through the years
Through all the good and bad
I knew how much we had
I've always been so glad
To be with you
Through the years
It's better everyday
You've kissed my tears away
As long as it's okay
I'll stay with you
Through the years

Through the years
When everything went wrong
Together we were strong
I know that I belong
Right here with you
Through the years
I never had a doubt
We'd always work things out
I've learned what life's about
By loving you
Through the years

Through the years
You've never let me down
You turned my life around
The sweetest days I've found
I've found with you
Through the years
It's better everyday
You've kissed my tears away
As long as it's okay
I'll stay with you
Through the years

"Till I Get It Right"

"Till I Get It Right"



I'll just keep on fallin' in love 'til I get it right
Right now I'm like a wounded bird hungry for the sky
But if I try my wings and try long enough I'm bound to learn to fly
So I'll just keep on fallin' in love 'til I get it right.

My door to love has opened out more times than in
And I'm either fool or wise enough to open it again
'Cause I'll never know what's beyond the mountain 'til I reach the other side
So I'll just keep on fallin in love til I get it right.

If practice makes perfect then I'm almost
As perfect as I'll ever be in my life
So I'll just keep on fallin' in love 'til I get it right.

"Time For Love"

"Time For Love"



I can do try to tell you that I've gotta let go
Now I'm wondering why
God knows I don't even know.

I don't care what they say
I don't care what they do
I don't care if it's wrong or right.

This feeling inside of me
Is more than some fantasy
Is bigger than you and me
It must be time for love.

I've spoken my mind
Nothing left for me to say
Oh it's black and is white
Not to standing in your way.

Stay tonight hear and see
Shake your body with me
And I'll show you
Two hearts on fire.

You're reaching out with your eyes
Got me so, hit the tides
Now that you realized
It must be time for love.

So hold me with all your might
Take me all through the night
Make everything just try
It must be time for love.

"To Me"

"To Me"




To me you are the hand that I reach for
When I've lost my way
To me you are the first star of the evening
The sun that warms my day.

Just as sure as I'm sure there's a heaven
This was meant to be
No road is too long
As long as you belong to me.

To me you are the truth I believe in
I believe in you
To me you are the love I have looked for
My whole life through.

Just as sure as I'm sure there's a heaven
This was meant to be
No road is too long
As long as you belong to me.

Just as sure as I'm sure there's a heaven
This was meant to be
No road is too long
As long as you belong to me...

"Today I Started Lovin' You Again"

"Today I Started Lovin' You Again"



Well today, I started lovin' you again
Now I'm right back where I've really always been
I got over you just long enough to let my heartaches mend
Then today I started lovin' you again.

What a fool I was to think I could get back
With only these few million tears I've cried
I should have known the world is too short to come
And the cryin' time for me has just begun.

Well today, I started lovin' you again
Now I'm right back where I've really always been
I got over you just long enough to let my heartaches mend
Then today I started lovin' you again...
