"Still Hold On"

"Still Hold On"


If I told you tonight that I loved you
Would you walk my way would you say
Lies that I wanted to hear
If I told you tonight that I need you
Would you break my heart would you start
Wearing me down again

I feel so lonely when I'm with I'm with you
But I'm so lonely when you're gone
I can't live with you
I can't live without you
I still hold on

If I told you tonight I was leaving
Would you call my name take the blame
Turn it all around again
'Cause you know I love you
And worth the heartbreak we make
But I still hold on I still hold on

I feel so lonely when I'm with I'm with you
But I'm so lonely when you're gone
I can't live with you
I can't live without you
I still hold on

"Sweet Love Song To My Soul"

"Sweet Love Song To My Soul"


You make everything beautiful
You make everything come alive, yes you do now
You make everything real again
When you look at me, yes and you smile
You bring me

Happiness
Tenderness
You're the sweet love song to my soul
Happiness
Tenderness
You're the sweet love song to my soul

I don't need to go no farther
Than this feeling you just laid down on me
Takes me so high
All I got to do is look
And you bring me

Happiness
Tenderness
You're the sweet love song to my soul
Happiness
Tenderness
You're the sweet love song to my soul

"Swept Me Off My Feet"

"Swept Me Off My Feet"


Irresistible you I bet you knew
About everything in this world
A winning show lettin' everyone know
They were lucky just to be your girl
I should have know better than
To get mixed up with you

You swept me off my feet
Turned me around
Took my heart and then you took me down
You swept me off my feet
And like a fool I fell
I fell straight to you
Now I can tell ya how it feels
To play the part of the fool
How it feels
To have the heart of the fool

So debonair with a gentleman's flair
You asked me out one evenin'
And though I tried to conceal how you make me feel
You knew just what I was thinkin'
And before I knew it
I was mixed up with you

You swept me off my feet
Turned me around
Took my heart and then you took me down
You swept me off my feet
And like a fool I fell
I fell straight to you
Now I can tell ya how it feels
To play the part of the fool
How it feels
To have the heart of the fool

I guess you pulled it off
You're a winner again
And I've got to hand it to ya
Cause I'm still entranced still romanced
And honey I still love ya
But I should have known better than
To get mixed up with you

You swept me off my feet
Turned me around
Took my heart and then you took me down
You swept me off my feet
And like a fool I fell
I fell straight to you
Now I can tell ya how it feels
To play the part of the fool
How it feels
To have the heart of the fool

"Take It On The Chin"

"Take It On The Chin"


You're lookin' right you're walkin' tight
You think everybody wants you
Cause you can do it all night
Don't think you heard me the first time
Goodbye goodbye goodbye
Is is a shock to ya
That I'm not standin' in line

So take it on the chin baby
Take it on the chin baby
Take it on the chin baby
If you're tough enough

Oh you magnetized me
You really paralyzed me
Got me so crazy that I couldn't see
What kinda guy you were
But when I caught you in my car
You were huggin' and kissin' her
I sad boy you've gone too far
You've really gone too far

So take it on the chin baby
Take it on the chin baby
Take it on the chin baby
If you're tough enough
If you're rough enough

I can be a fool all by myself
I can get along without your help
I can whisper dirty words with someone else
Better than you do
Better than you do

I can use the phone without your dime
I can be alone and dance all night
Don't worry 'bout me
Cause I'll be alright

So take it on the chin baby
Take it on the chin baby
Take it on the chin baby
If you're tough enough

"Take Me Home To Where My Heart Is"

"Take Me Home To Where My Heart Is"


Be my soul mate
Help me when I stumble
When I fall I need a helping hand
I'm not ashamed to tell the world I love you
Cause you're the beacon of the storm in which I am

So take me home to where my heart is
Lift me up and lay me down and be my friend
Let's ride the wind across the mighty ocean
All the way around the world and back again

When I'm gone
Don't cry because you're lonesome
Shine you light upon the faces that you see
And remember there's a soul that loves you
And that soul my darling boy is me

So take me home to where my heart is
Lift me up and lay me down and be my friend
Let's ride the wind across the mighty ocean
All the way around the world and back again

Let's ride the wind across the mighty ocean
All the way around the world and back again

"Tear Me Apart"
(originally by Suzi Quatro)

"Tear Me Apart"
(originally by Suzi Quatro)



Straight out a' Texas
Down around San Antoine
Comin' straight out of heaven
Sweeter than you've ever known
Don't let me hear that sweet kid's name
Get your hands on me and I'll drive you insane
Tear me apart if you wanna win my heart
Tear me apart if you wanna win my heart

Now you've been seen in the back of a limousine
I may not own it but it's bigger than you've ever seen
Now don't talk to me about the girls that you knew
Cause they can't do what this girl can do
Tear me apart if you wanna win my heart
Tear me apart if you wanna win my heart

Your legs start shakin' every time you call my name
You're no heart breaker but you know you'll never be the same
Now don't talk to me about the girls that you knew
Cause they can't do what this girl can do
Tear me apart if you wanna win my heart
Tear me apart if you wanna win my heart

I can't say goodbye to the sights of San Antoine
Headin' to Hollywood High
And there I'm gonna make my home
And now I don't give a damn about the things that they've seen
They ain't seen nothin' like a Texas queen

Tear me apart if you wanna win my heart
Tear me apart if you wanna win my heart

"Tear's Edge"

"Tear's Edge"


Tear's edge,
Walking around with a hole straight through my heart
Walking on a window without a ledge
I'm on tear's tear's edge

Out of my head waiting for you to call
I don't ever get lonely
I guess in this case I'm just feeling miserable
It's not the same since you told me

Never have felt like this before
Consider the chance I take
I never kept my eyes on the door
I'm risking everything

I'm walking on tear's edge,
Walking around with a hole straight through my heart
Walking on a window without a ledge
I'm on tear's tear's edge

I'm walking
I'm walking
I'm walking
I'm walking tear's edge

Obviously your number is on her wall
And she don't ever get lonely
Your definitely the one that she wants to call
She's got eyes for you only

You carry the moment in your heart
Consider the price you'll pay
This doesn't have to be the start
Or ending of anything

I'm walking on tear's edge,
Walking around with a hole straight through my heart
Walking on a window without a ledge
I'm on tear's tear's edge

I'm walking
I'm walking
I'm walking
I'm walking tear's edge

Now she wants you back again
Now she wants you back

Never have felt like this before
Consider the chance I take
I never kept my eyes on the door
I'm risking everything

I'm walking on tear's edge,
Walking around with a hole straight through my heart
Walking on a window without a ledge
I'm on tear's tear's edge

I'm walking
I'm walking
I'm walking
I'm walking tear's edge

I'm walking
I'm walking
I'm walking
Try walking tear's edge

I'm walking on tear's edge,
Walking around with a hole straight through my heart
Walking on a window without a ledge
I'm on tear's tear's edge

I'm walking
I'm walking
I'm walking

Walking around with a hole straight through my heart
Walking on a window without a ledge
I'm on tear's tear's edge

"That's Where The Trouble Lies"

"That's Where The Trouble Lies"


When you want me
When you hold me
You make me weak and I can't fight it
I should face it I have skated
Way too far out on thin ice
You break me...
You shatter my resistance you don't even see
What you do to me ah

That's where the trouble lies
That's where the trouble lies
That's where the trouble lies
That's where the trouble lies

The best of plans slip through my hands
You toss them off so easily
Old desires never fail to make
Us all act so carelessly
So take me..
Treat me like the one thing you'd never leave
Oh please..
The user never knows how much the drug shows

That's where the trouble lies
That's where the trouble lies
That's where the trouble lies
That's where the trouble lies

Hot then cold then maybe
Don't that drive you baby
Over the speed limit with me
Huh

That's where the trouble lies

"The Arrangement"

"The Arrangement"


He drives her all day long
To fancy bars and restaurants
She acts like nothing's wrong
She satisfies his needs and wants
He will drive her
She will drive him crazy with demands
Until he takes all that he can stand

She believes in gold
And he believes he's lost his soul
She knows she's getting old
She's lost her vision and her goals

She hires gentlemen
For pleasure and for company
He wants her to himself
His love is blind and she can't see
But he will drive her
She will drive him crazy with demands
Until he takes all that he can stand
That's the arrangement
That's the arrangement
That's the arrangement
That's the arrangement

He wants a single lover
She wants a couple more
He'd like to change her life but
She does not know what for

He feels it's time to leave her
She knows she broke his heart
She kind of fell in love and
He kind of fell apart
But he will drive her
She will drive him crazy with demands
Until he takes all that he can stand
That's the arrangement
That's the arrangement
That's the arrangement
That's the arrangement

"The Best Of You (Has Got The Best Of Me)"

"The Best Of You (Has Got The Best Of Me)"


Memories are the only things that time can't take away
You read a book, you write a song, the time's been spent
But in your mind the story still remains
The song plays on

Memories can get the best of you
They can turn you inside out just when you least expect'em to
And times when I'm alone, I think of things we've done
And then I laugh right out loud to myself
Sometimes I fool myself

How could you possibly know
How could you possibly see
Yes and how could you possibly know
That the best of you has got the best of me

Good and bad take it all in stride
But I'd be lying if I said I didn't you here beside me
When it took so long to find you
Now I just can't let you go, can't let you go

How could you possibly know
How could you possibly see
Yes and how could you possibly know
That the best of you has got the best of me
