"I'm Nobody's Fool"

"I'm Nobody's Fool"



I know your kind, you pick a girl (guy)
Then change your mind and have a whirl
Now the gals (guys) that you've kissed say
I'm next on your list, uh, uh, baby....
I'm nobody's fool

You had you're fun by telling lies
And now you've come to claim this prize
Uh, uh baby
I'm nobody's fool

I've heard your ev'ry lie
Dear, it's the same old tune
Don't even waste your time here
Baby, I'm immune

Just turn around, be on your way
Don't hang around it doesn't pay
Cause I won't take a chance
On a one way romance
Uh, uh baby
I'm nobody's fool

"I'm On To You"

"I'm On To You"



Lie no more, I'm on to you
Know the score and I'm on to you
Take anything you want
Baby, I'm movin' on
You can complain, rant and cry
Can't deny
Baby, I'm on to you

Talk your talk, I'm on to you
Like a hawk, hey, I'm on to you
Trouble is what you are
Trouble that's gone too far
Baby, the truth makes you free
Disagree... I'll still be on to you

Tell me now how I was wrong
And I'll tell you how right you are
Wrong to be stayin' so long
Was I out of my head?
Should have known it was dead
But it's good
By now, I'm on to you
Stood my ground, hey, I'm on to you

Baby, I wish you well
But loving you, it was hell
Now is the time to let go
Finally know, that I'm so on to you

Tell me now how I was wrong
And I'll tell you how right you are
Wrong to be staying so long
Was I out of my head?
Should have known it was dead
But it's good by now, I'm on to you
Stood my ground, hey, I'm on to you

Baby I wish you well
But lovin' you hurt like hell
And it's the time to let go
Finally know that I'm so on to you

Baby I'm on to you
Saying I'm on to you
To you
To you
To you
To you

Sayin' I wish you well
But lovin' you, it was hell
And it's the time to let go
Finally know that I'm so on to you
Baby I'm on to you
Saying I'm on to you
Knowin' I'm on to you
Baby, I'm on to you

"I'm Sayin' I'm Sorry"

"I'm Sayin' I'm Sorry"



I'm sitting up here and drinkin'
She's sittin' down there and thinkin'
Got on her tape of Evita Perona
And my Smith Corona
Keeps saying I'm sorry
I'm saying I'm sorry
And then I'm saying goodnight

She's sittin' up there and fumin'
She thinks I'm something inhuman
She'd rather be with Paul Newman
I know her
And my Smith Corona
Keeps saying I'm sorry
I'm saying I'm sorry
And then I'm saying goodnight
Good Night
Good Night

Baby, you know that I love you
All right
Gonna be alright
Let's call it a lesson we've learned

She's not an easy forgiver
Could throw myself in the river
She send me back do it once more
An encore and what's more
Use the back door

Well, I'm saying I'm sorry
I'm saying I'm sorry
And then I'm saying goodnight
Good Night
Good Night

Baby, you know that I love you
All right
Gonna be alright
Just call it a lesson we've learned

She's sitting up there and waitin'
Hey dummy quit hesitating
Take off that tape of Evita Perona
Turn off that corona
And tell her you're sorry
I'm saying I'm sorry

And then I'm saying goodnight
And then I'm saying goodnight
And then I'm saying goodnight

"I'm Your Man"

"I'm Your Man"



Won't you come into the living room
We can talk about
The way that we see this
You can snuggle in my easy chair
And I can tell you about
The man that I really am
We can talk about the family
Or we can talk about the things
That you've been missin'
What's missing
If you want someone who's listening
I'm your man, oh yeah
I'm your man, a-ha

Do you want to see a photograph
It's a picture of the two of us together
Got to be my favorite photograph
From a time I know
I'll always remember
Now we got a little family
Can't you see that I'm a man who's
Just discovered what love is
And one thing leads to another
But I'm your man, oh yeah
I'm your man a-ha

Can't you come into the living room
Got a few important things
I want to talk about
Won't you meet me in the living room
Stay around until there's not a single doubt
That I love you, yes I love you
When you need someone who loves you
I'm you man, a-ha
I'm your man, oh yeah
I'm your man

"I've Been This Way Before"

"I've Been This Way Before"



I've seen the light
And I've seen the flame
And I've been this way before
And I'm sure to be this way again

For I've been refused
And I've been regained
And I've seen your eyes before
And I'm sure to see your eyes again
Once again

For I've been released
And I've been regained
And I've sung my song before
And I'm sure to sing my song again
Once again

Some people got to laugh
Some people got to cry
And some people got to make it through
By never wondering why

Some people got to sing
Some people got to sigh
Some people never see the light
Until the day they die

But I've been released
And I've been regained
And I've been this way before
And I'm sure to be this way again
Once again
One more time again
Just one more time

"I've Never Been The Same"

"I've Never Been The Same"




I was just another lonely guy
Searching for my lucky star in vain
And then just one day
You just happened by
And I've never been the same

Nights just don't seem as long
When you're around
I don't walk alone down lover's lane
You just picked me up when I was down
And I've never been the same

I never realized what I was missing
Until I came to know
The magic of your charms
I used to spend my nights
Alone just wishing
But now I'll spend my time
Alone in your arms

You must be an angel in disguise
My head's been in the clouds
Since you first came
You showed me the way to paradise
And I've never been the same

No, no, no, no
I've never been the same
Well, you know
I've never been the same
No, no, no, no
I've never been the same

"If I Couldn't See You Again"

"If I Couldn't See You Again"




If I couldn't see you again
Life would make no sense at all to me
I could be a rich man, but why?
It wouldn't mean much, if I
Could never see you again

If I couldn't look in your eyes
How'm I gonna see tomorrow?
How'm I gonna know where to go?
I need to be at your side
Say what you want, babe
But I, I need to see you again

Things are gonna get serious
What a waste of a chance
For the two of us
What can I do?
Is it so mysterious?
I would be much less than I am
If I couldn't have you

And if there wasn't you in my life
All my life would be so empty
And if I couldn't see you again,
Be losing more than a friend
Don't even want to pretend
I need to see you again

Things are gonna get serious
What a waste of a chance
For the two of us
What can I do?
Is it so mysterious?
I would be much less than I am
If I couldn't have you
Know that it's true

How'm I gonna make you believe
What have I got left to give to you?
Maybe just a piece of my life
It wouldn't mean much, if I
Could never see you again
I need to see you again

"If I Don't See You Again"

"If I Don't See You Again"



If I don't see you again
It was a hell of a ride
Don't need to say let's be friends
Don't need to promise you'll write

We rode that train through the night
And never cared where it went
If I don't see you again
If I don't see you again

We ran a whole other race
Two strangers meet on the road
And find a time and a place
We never once had to lie
We've passed the age of conscent
If I don't see you again

I know it's crazy out there
My head is sleeping around
I went out looking for love
And never liked what I found

Don't pay to make it alone
God knows it's lonely out there
I made it once on my own
And hardly anyone cared
If I don't see you again

Who you gonna run to baby
Who you gonna hide behind when the nights
It's suddenly cold
Who's gonna hold you
Who's gonna love you
Who will you go to

Who you gonna call if it ain't me
When you're feeling lost
And there is nobody out there
Looking for you
What will you do
Where will you go
If I don't see you again
If I don't see you again

You made it happen somehow
I think I gave up on life
But I feel better right now
Something you see turn around
Don't need to know what you meant
If I don't see you again

And at the end of the day
I hated sleeping alone
There's nothing worse when you're lost
And you don't wanna go home
It's gonna work out some way
I just don't wanna be found
I'm waiting here round the bay
And I'll be hanging around
If I don't see you again

Who am I kidding
I'm going nowhere
I can't even get through
An hour without you
Should be ashamed
Just wanna hear you
Calling my name

Two of those missed conventions
These men must have somehow missed something more
Cause we're here alone
I know we're together
To fall apart
I know how to get back home
Each time we say that
Cause you're frustrated too long
You've been too lonely to know
To find that something is wrong

The time if perfect to go
Before the curtain descents
Right now when both of us know
That everything has got to end
If I don't see you again

What's it gonna come to baby
Who you gonna hide behind when the nights
Get filled up with dirt
Looking to run
You're running away
And when you came on to save me
Doesn't look like the future is clear
I need you to hear me
Praying to
But nobody hears me
I had a plan to the moon
Each time you're saying good bye
Cause if I stayed for too long
You get too lonely to work
To find that something was wrong

The time is perfect to go
Before the curtain descents
Right now when both of us know
Everything has got to end
If I don't see you again
If I don't see you again

Somehow we both made it through
I would have gave up on life
Before I gave up on you
You went and turned me around
Could be with something you said
I couldn't make out the sound
I didn't care what it meant
If I don't see you again
If I don't see you again
If I don't see you again

"If I Lost My Way"

"If I Lost My Way"



If I lost my way,
Would you stand with me,
Would you love me still
And care for what I need
If I lost my way?

If I lost my faith
To face up to the test,
Would I let you down?
Would you love me less
If I lost my way?

Tell me I'm afraid without good reason
Say that I'm a fool to feel this way
Could it be the me that you believed in
Is all you really need to make you stay?
If I lost my way
If I lost my way

If I lost my dreams,
Could I keep your trust?
Promise that our love
Would not turn to dust
If I lost my way

Tell me I'm afraid without good reason
Say that I'm a fool to feel this way
Could it be the me that you believed in
Is all you really need to make you stay?

If I lost my way,
Would you stand with me
Would you love me still
And care for what I need
If I lost my way
If I lost my way
If I lost my way
If I lost my way

"If I Never Knew Your Name"

"If I Never Knew Your Name"



You, get me feelin' crazy
There always on my mind
And I get to feelin' lately
If I never knew your name,
I'd love you all the same
But I have you to myself
Wanting nothing else
Knowing that you're mine

Good time,bad time,all the time
Hands reachin' 'cross a room
And I know somewhere inside my mind
If I never knew your name,
I'd love you all the same,
But I have you to myself
Wanting nothing else
Knowing that you're mine

Ba ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba ba

And I know somewhere inside my mind
If I never knew your name,
I'd love you all the same
But I have you to myself

Wanting nothing else
Knowing that you're mine
Have you to myself
Wanting nothing else
Knowing that you're mine...
