"Changing All The Time"

"Changing All The Time"


So you caught a glimpse of someone you once knew
And you seem to find it hard to face the truth
Oh Oh, but that don't make it right
To be wantin' me tonight
When your thoughts on love keep changing all the time
well we both knew there's be things we'd have to face
But is it true that I can never take his place
Oh but I can't read your mind
For the things you hope to find
When your thoughts on love keep changing all the time
Now heaven knows I tried just everything I knew
But it seems there ain't no getting though to yu
Guess I've played out every line
Still you can't make up your mind
When your thoughts on love are changing all the time
'Guess I've played out every line
Still you can't make up your mind
When your thoughts on love keep changing all the time

"Chasing Shadows"

"Chasing Shadows"


Tried to carry by myself
this heart of mine don't want no one else
My tears of emptiness
Cry out for you caress
I just can't hide this feeling inside of me
- so now I'm
Chasing shadows in the moonlight
Yes, I'm flying high across the sky
- you know I'm
Chasing shadows in the moonlight
Just to be with you tonight
Silent thougths that run through my mind
Keeps the magic burning inside
Still endless days grow cold
Without your love I'm sold
this secret feeling's still burning inside of me
Chasing shadows in the moonlight...

"Christmas Isn't Just For Children"

"Christmas Isn't Just For Children"


Winter shades a distant light
Shining until the night has come and gone
When everyone on earth should be as one
Ooooo this night
People plan the day ahead
Reflecting on the feast that comes to mind
A blessing for the world and all mankind
Ooooo this night
Christmas isn't just for children
It's for the hearts of everyone around
Christmas isn't just for children
It's a time when happiness is found
All the year the fear in pain
Seems captured in a world that knows no hope
Left hanging in a noose without the rope
Oooo but then
Christmas isn't...
You and I we've come so far and still a light up in the sky
Shines so bright
We build our hopes and dreams for years to come
Let Christmas be the time for old and young
Christmas isn't just for children
Christmas isn't just for children
Christmas isn't just for children
Christmas isn't just for children
Christmas isn't just for children
Christmas isn't just for children

"Come On Home"

"Come On Home"


Quiet night, lonely night
As I lay with the bedside light
Shining down on the pillow
You once laid upon
I dreamed I see
I have visions of you still with me
That's all I've got left
To live on
Why don't you come home oh darling
Come on home
Come on home
Oh I can't live without your loving anymore
Please won't you come home sweet darling
Come on home home home
Come on home
I'm lost without you now
If I could make up to you somehow
I'd give you the love you always dreamed of
I wait each day hoping you'd come on home and stay
I'll give the love you can be sure of
Why don't you come home oh darling...
Quiet night (quiet night)
Lonely night (lonely night)
As I lay with the bedside light
Shining down on the pillow
You once lay upon
You once lay upon baby
I dream (I dream)
I see (I see)
I have visions of you still with me
That's all I got left
To live on
That's all I got left
Why don't you come home oh darling...
Why don't you come home oh darling...

"Coming Home Tonight"

"Coming Home Tonight"


Waiting in a lonely home
A fire burning low
A thousand miles between us
god knows, I had to go
But distance can be overcome
In the beating of a heart
Just put your arms around yourself
Believe I'm not that far
Remember that I told you
That I'd prove my love is true
and if you wait a little longer
I'll be coming home to you
Tonight, when all the lights go down
tonight, we'll dream about the love we've found
tonight, when all the lights are low
We'll l?hide away in yesterday
and I won't have to go
A year can seem a lifetime
to leave someone like you
So many sleepless nights I've spent
Reaching out for you
The price of dedication is everything i own
But there is someone that I can't gibe up
without you, why go on?
Tonight, when all the lights go down...
Tonight, when all the lights go down...

"Daydreamin'"

"Daydreamin'"


Daydreamin' is an occupation I know
'Cos I got nothin else to do
Daydreamin' is an occupation I know
I sit alone and think of you

And I don't believe in make believe don't deceive myself
All that I have left of you
Is up here on the shelf

Stargazin' is an occupation I know
I watch them flashing through the sky
I see your face with every twinkle of the night
Can't stop myself from asking why

And I don't believe in make believe...

And I don't believe in make believe...

"Derry Girl"

"Derry Girl"


I'm on the town in a rock and roll bar
Playing lay down sally on the blues guitar
Playing slide like I've never seen
Hey, she was a rock and roll queen
She was young and wild and free
From that look in her eyes she was covering me
So I took a chance on a dance and a twirl
I said where you from she said Derry girl
Ahhhhhh Derry Girl
Derry girl oh Derry girl
I fell in love with a Derry girl
Derry girl oh Derry girl
I fell in love with a Derry girl
I'm in love with a Derry girl
After the show we took a stroll outside
Exchanging words in the grey moonlight
She seemed a little crazy to me
But that's just part of the rock and roll scene
So young and wild and restless
Still living in a teenage dream
She walked right into my world
Ohhh that little Derry girl
Ohhh Derry ...
She was young and wild and free
From that look in her eye she was covering me
She walked right into my world
Ohhh that little Derry girl
Ohh that Derry girl
Derry girl...
I'm in love with a Derry girl
I fell in love with a Derry girl

"Do To Me"

"Do To Me"


If you find a new direction
And if you feel that I'm the one
Baby I'm too shy to mention
The way you always turn me on

If you need some close attention
And if you want someone to care
Communicate your intention
Say the word and I'll be there

And I don't understand
But I feel like a man
And nobody else can do
What you do to me
Do to me
Do to me Baby
Do to me
Do to me Baby

Do to me do do do to me
I said do to me do do do do to me

I'll offer you my dedication
Though what you do is hard to say
You make me feel a new sensation
Every time you look my way

I don't need your conversation
And I don't want your sympathy
Try to find an explanation
The way you do these things to me

And I don't understand
But I feel like a man
And nobody else can do
What you do to me
Do to me
Do to me Baby
Do to me
Do to me Baby

"Don't Play That Game With Me"

"Don't Play That Game With Me"


Our love affair was like a movie show
So beautiful and true
Each piece of love was wild and full of fire
And the stars were me and you
How could I know you found another guy
The way you acted out your part
And then you stayed away so many nights
You knew then it would tear my heart apart
Don't play that game with me
Not that game with me
Your love never, never, never
will I share
Don't play that game with me
Not that game with me
With that other, other guy, it's not fair
You tried to tell me he was just fling
A little stop along the way
But I can tell it's something more than that
In spite of all the things you say
You've gotta choose between the two of us
You gotta choose that guy or me
I can't go on not knowing where I stand
If you want him, set me free, set me free
Don't play that game with me...
I'm tired of all your lies
You're playin with me
So stop your foolin around
I beg you, please
Don't play that game with me...

"Don't Play Your Rock 'n' Roll To Me"

"Don't Play Your Rock 'n' Roll To Me"


Don't play your rock'n'roll to me,
That ain't the way it's meant to be,
I ain't so blind that I can't see,
Just let it lie, let it be.

Well I know you think I'm crazy, hangin' round,
But I was sort of hopin' you'd change, from the girl I'd found.
But your words just sound like rock 'n' roll lies to me,
And they're just about as burned out, as a worn out forty-five,
And you can't expect them to keep our love alive.

So, don't play your rock'n'roll to me,
That ain't the way it's meant to be,
I ain't so blind that I can't see,
Just let it lie, let it be.

Well I guess you had me fooled for a while,
With your come-on looks, and your Mona Lisa smile.
But your rock'n'roll is getting out of time, to me,
Go sing your lines to someone else, that someone else may be,
The fool you always thought you saw in me.

So, don't play your rock'n'roll to me,
That ain't the way it's meant to be,
I ain't so blind that I can't see,
Just let it lie, let it be.
