"Turn Around"

"Turn Around"

Turn around,
Where do you think you're going
We've been through this door so many times
Just turn around,
We've got to keep it going like we did before
In better times

Turn around,
Look at me
Can't you see, I'll be there for you
If ever you should need me
You can run away,
But you can never hide

There'll come a day
You gonna have to face yourself
You'll wait and say,
It wasn't worth goodbye
Turn around,
Look at me
I'm the guy who loves you
And when you get tired of running around

Turn around,
Don't turn away, babe
Turn around, I want you to stay

You and me,
We still belong together
No one ever said we'd have an easy ride
When you love someone,
You got to talk it over
When you love someone,
You just don't let it die

Turn around,
Look at me
I just want to tell you
What you're looking for
You've already found

Turn around,
Don't turn away, babe
Turn around, I want you to stay

Turn around,
Don't turn away, babe
Just turn around, I want you to stay

Turn around,
Don't turn away, babe
Just turn around, I want you to stay
Turn around,
Don't turn away, babe

"Turn Down The Lights"

"Turn Down The Lights"

I've been up, I've been down
I've been so turned around
That I've seen my fate
In the eyes of others

I've been high, I've been low
But there's one thing I know
There's a lot to give
When we give to each other

So I bring you my song
Hoping you'll sing along

Turn down the lights
Turn up the music
Let's just be together tonight
And turn down the lights

First we're here, then we're gone
But the music plays on
From the heart of one
To the heart of another

It's goodnight, not goodbye
We're just done for awhile
We'll be back again
With some new things discovered
And we'll bring you our song
Hoping you'll sing along

Turn down the lights
Turn up the music
Let's just be together tonight
Come turn down the lights

So I bring you my song
Hoping you'll sing along

Turn down the lights
Turn up the music
Let's just be together tonight

Turn up the love
Bring out the memories
You and I could share them all night
So turn down the lights
Turn down the lights
Turn down the lights
Turn down the lights

"Two-Bit Manchild"

"Two-Bit Manchild"

I'm walkin'
But I'm going nowhere at all
I'm 'bout to head any place in the world
But the place that I am

I'm talkin'
Hey, heh, heh
But baby, you don't understand
Na na na na na na na na na

Bad times, I can't take 'em
Good times, got to make 'em
Got to find 'em, got to taste 'em
Hey, and I do, I say I do
Mama I do

Two bit manchild I was
Born for nothin' mostly
Good time with sometime women
Nothin' ain't ever hold me
You can't change me none
Na na na na na

You want me
And I can't deny , I 'm a man
But I go no eyes for a tight pair of shoes
When my bare feet'll do

You need me
Hey, heh, heh
The wind is where I got my roots
Na na na na na na na na na

Bad times, I can't take 'em
Good times, got to make 'em
Got to find 'em, got to taste 'em
Hey and I do, I say I do
Mama I do......

Two bit manchild I was
Born for nothin' mostly
Good times with sometime women
Nothin' ain't ever hold me
You can't change me none
Na na na na na

I do, I say I do
Mama, Mama I do......
Two bit manchild I was
Born for nothin' mostly baby
Good time women
Good time lovin'
Hear what I 'm saying, baby
Two bit manchild
Good for nothin'

"Unchained Melody"

"Unchained Melody"

Oh, my love, my darling
I hunger for your touch
Alone
Lonely time
Time goes by, so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine?
I need your love
I need your love
Godspeed your love to me.

Lonely rivers flow to the sea
To the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Lonely rivers sigh
Wait for me, wait for me
I'll be coming home, wait for me

Oh, my love, my darling
I hunger for your touch
Alone
Lonely time
Time goes by, so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine?
I need your love
I need your love
Godspeed your love to me

"Until It's Time For You To Go"

"Until It's Time For You To Go"

You're not a dream
You're not an angel
You're a woman

I'm not a king
I'm a man
Take my hand
We'll make a space
In the lives that we planned
And here we'll stay
Until it's time for you to go

Yes we're different worlds apart
We're not the same
We laughed and played
At the start like in a game
You could have stayed outside my heart
But in you came
And here you'll stay
Until it's time for you to go

Don't ask why
Don't ask how
Don't ask for ever, honey
Love me, now
This love of mine
Had no beginning it has no end
I was an oak now I'm a willow
Now I can bend
And though
I'll never in my life see you again
Still I'll stay
Until it's time for you to go

Don't ask why of me
Don't ask how of me
Don't ask forever of me honey
Love me Love me

You're not a dream
You're not an angel
You're a woman
I'm not a king
I'm a man
Take my hand
We'll make a space
In the lives that we planned
And here we'll stay
Until it's time for you to go

"Up On The Roof"

"Up On The Roof"

When this old world
Starts a getting me down
And people are just too much
For me to face
I'll climb way up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares
Just drift right into space

On the roof, it's peaceful as can be
And there the world below
Don't bother me,
Let me tell you now
When I come home
Feeling tired and beat
I'll go up
Where the air is fresh and sweet
I'll get far away
From the hustling crowd
And all that rat-race noise
Down in the street

On the roof,
That's the only place I know
Where you just have to wish
To make it so
Let's go up on the roof
Look at those stars darlin'

At night the stars
They put on a show for free
And, darling,
You can share it all with me
I keep on telling you
That right smack dab
In the middle of town
I found a paradise that's trouble proof

And if this world
Starts a getting you down
There's room enough for two
Up on the roof
Way up on the roof

"Walk On Water"

"Walk On Water"

Walk on water, ain't it like her
She leads the children
Ain't it right, ain't it right, ain't it right

And ain't it wond'rous,
The way she does it
Gives love and loves it
Ain't it right, ain't it right, ain't it right

Light de light, we got mornin',
Mornin' makes another day
Glory sight, got de dawnin'
Lordy, light the night away

Light de light, we got de mornin',
Mornin' makes another day
Glory sight, got de dawnin'
Lordy, light the night away

Light de light, we got mornin',
Mornin' makes another day
Glory sight, got de dawnin'
Lordy, light the night away

She walks on water,
Ah, ain't it like her
She leads the children
Ain't it right, ain't it right, ain't it right

"We"

"We"

Love is all about chemistry
Isn't something you go off to school to learn
It isn't math or ancient history
It's the kind of thing that comes down to simple terms
It's not about you
It's not about me
Love is all about WE
Yes, it's all about we

Want to take you to that great unknown
Show you to a place you've never been
Down a road where only lovers go
But before we leave, I want to repeat again
It's not about you
And it's not about me
Love is all about we
All about we

With a string you can tie a knot
But you gotta have somethin' to tie it to
Otherwise all you've got is a knot
When it ties me to you,
It's a whole other thing
Cause Love is all about we
Love is all about we

Love is not about young or old
Touches everybody in a special way
It's a blanket when the nights are cold
It can even keep you dry on a rainy day
And it's not about you
It's not about me
Love is all about we
Yes, it's all about we

With a string you can tie a knot
But you got to have something to tie it to
Otherwise all you've got is a knot
When it ties me to you
It's a whole other thing
Cause Love is all about we
Yes it's all about we

No, its not about you
It's not about me
Love is all about we
Yes it's all about we
Say it's all about we
You and me
Say it's all about we
You and me
We ah-we ah-we ah-we ah-we
Love is all about we...

"We Got Love"

"We Got Love"

(Yes we got love
Yes we got love)
Take a boy like me and a girl like you
Nothing in this world that we can't do
'Cause we got love

Let them say the things
That they want to say
Long as I have you everything's OK
'Cause we got love
Yes we got love
Baby we got love

Why would the try to keep us apart
Can't they see
Tho' we are young
What we feel in our hearts
Will always be
Baby we got love

That's the way that we feel
And some day they'll find
That it's really real
'Cause we got love
Yes we got love
Yes we got love
