"All Stand Up (Never Say Never)"

"All Stand Up (Never Say Never)"


All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All hands up, are you ready for the weekend? Are you ever
All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All hands up, let me hear you say we're gonna get together

Working all week 'til Friday
Wish I could do it my way
Until when I'm living it up
I ain't giving it up
Making the best of my lot
One of these days when I stop
And I'm gonna be living it up
I won't be giving it up
Telling you now it's my day
Oh, I'm gonna do it my way

All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All hands up, are you ready for the weekend? Are you ever
All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All hands up, let me hear you say we're gonna get together

The job, it just drives me crazy
Guess I'm a little lazy
I don't care 'cos what do they know?
They'll be there when I go
Every day feel like screaming
Nothing gonna stop me dreaming
And there's one thing sure that I know
I can't wait for the whistle to blow
Telling you now it's Friday
I'm gonna do it my way

All stand up, let me hear you say never say never

All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All hands up, are you ready for the weekend? Are you ever
All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All hands up, let me hear you say we're gonna get together

Living and loving and learning
Gotta keep the whole world turning
So come on, let's give it a try
No use in wondering why
Running away and hiding
Taking our time and finding
If we stop then it's all gonna go
Don't wait for the whistle to blow
Every day feel like screaming
Nothing gonna stop me dreaming

All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All hands up, are you ready for the weekend? Are you ever
All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All hands up, let me hear you say we're gonna get together

All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All stand up, let me hear you say never say never say never say

"All That Counts Is Love"

"All That Counts Is Love"


Got a feelin' that I can't shake off
I know it well, it feels just like love
Started from the moment I met you
I didn't wanna fall in love again
But it's a fight your head'll never win
Your heart knows there is nothin' you can do

Your convalesing blues are shattered
You're back in love and nothing else matters

All that really counts is love
If you've got love then that's enough
You might have the midas touch
But it don't add up to much
Cos all that counts is love

What it is you'll never quite pin down
People say it makes the world go round
All I know is nothing tastes so sweet
I know sometimes it can fade and die
You go on living but you don't know why
Then you meet someone who knocks you off your feet

Your painful memories get scattered
You're back in love and nothing else matters

All that really counts is love
If you've got love then that's enough
You might have the midas touch
But it don't add up to much
Cos all that counts is love

And ain't it crazy, the way we never really learn at all
That love can hurt you, desert you, that's forgotten when you fall

Love is cruel, but it's all forgiven
I'm back in love, and I'm headed for heaven

All that really counts is love
If you've got love then that's enough
You might have the midas touch
But it don't add up to much
Cos all that counts is love

All that counts is love
All that counts is love
All that counts is love
All that counts is love

"All The Reasons"

"All The Reasons"


When I find myself in trouble and I need someone to lean on
I only have to call and you're right there by my side
When I can't see all the reasons why you have to be so far away
I wonder if your love is really here to stay
And I can't help my feelings and I can't hide my love for you
And I'll always believe in all the things that you want me to

When you're telling me not to worry 'cos you're being there won't be long
I only live in hope that you just can't be wrong
Because I can't help my feelings and I can't hide my love for you
And I'll always believe in all the things that you want me to

And I can't help my feelings and I can't hide my love for you
And I'll always believe in all the things that you want me to

"All Through The Night"

"All Through The Night"


All through the night, oh, all through the night
All through the night, lonely day, lonely night

All alone again, I never get my way
I don't remember when it's never been the same
I know what I've been looking for
But now I know it's what I'm living for
I want you back again
I never get my way

All through the night, oh, all through the night
All through the night, lonely day, lonely night

Once upon a time I didn't really care
I loved so many times, but then I had my share
I got a feeling here inside
And now I know it's you that's on my mind
I want you back again
I never get my way

All through the night, oh, all through the night
All through the night, lonely day, lonely night
All through the night, oh, all through the night
All through the night, lonely day, lonely night

Baby, baby, I just can't go on
Baby, waiting, what might come along [?]
Baby, baby, I just hope that you know
Baby, holding, I won't let you go

All through the night, oh, all through the night
All through the night, oh, all through the night
All through the night, lonely day, lonely night
All through the day, lonely night, lonely day
All through the night, oh all through the night

"All We Really Wanna Do (Polly)"

"All We Really Wanna Do (Polly)"


I thought it over in a quiet room
What about it, what about the dream?
Of the future, looking much better,
Wonder what is on the other side
When we get there, if we do make it
Better than it was before

I think about it, would we be the same?
Working at it, will we fall again?
For the same lines and the same reasons
Would we let them take us for a ride?
By the next time and the time after
Won't be any time at all
No there won't be any time at all

'Cos all we really wanna do is what we wanna do and do it all the day
But we never ever think about it, life goes on and love gets in the way
Everybody does the same old thing and goes ahead and does it anyway

Write a letter to a magazine
Talk about it, talk about the dream
Of the future, looking much better,
Wonder what is on the other side
By the next time and the time after
Won't be any time at all
No there won't be any time at all

'Cos all we really wanna do is what we wanna do and do it all the day
But we never ever think about it, life goes on and love gets in the way
All we really wanna do is what we wanna do and do it all the day
But we never ever think about it, life goes on and love gets in the way
All we really wanna do is what we wanna do and do it all the day
But we never ever think about it, life goes on and love gets in the way

"Almost But Not Quite There"
(performed by The Traffic Jam)



I want to have you here with me
To cuddle up so near to me
And do the things
You like me to do to you

You like it when I tickle you
We start to kiss, it pleases you
It gets so hot
I just don't know what to do

To take you
When you're feeling good
To love you like I know I should
It makes me feel all are ten feet tall

So I just try to give to you
All that I can to satisfy you
I don't like to leave you girl
Almost but not quite there

So I just try to give to you
All that I can to satisfy you
I don't like to leave you girl
Almost but not quite there

Now when I finally get to you
I'm gonna put my love to you
And then I'll see
Just how good you are

So I've got to have you here with me
To cuddle up so near to me
And do the things
You like me to do to you

'Cause I just try to give to you
All that I can to satisfy you
I don't like to leave you girl
Almost but not quite there.

"Alright"

"Alright"


Can't believe that I'm standing here alone
How you used me like a stepping stone
I'm getting used to not having you around
Learning to fly now, I'm gaining ground

No way you can bring me down
I'm heading for the good times

Alright, I'll be alright
I'm moving on, no more hate, no more lies
OK, I'll be OK
I'm moving on, I'll live to fight another day
No more, cos now I've got my dreams in sight
No more, from now I'm gonna be alright

It's been a while now, life is such a breeze
You brought me down, brought me to my knees
I was blindfolded, being led astray
I couldn't see, couldn't find my way

No way you can bring me down
I'm heading for the good times

Alright, I'll be alright
I'm moving on, no more hate, no more lies
OK, I'll be OK
I'm moving on, I'll live to fight another day
No more, cos now I've got my dreams in sight
No more, from now I'm gonna be alright

Alright, I'll be alright
I'm moving on, no more hate, no more lies
OK, I'll be OK
Alright, I'll be alright
I'm moving on, no more hate, no more lies
OK, I'll be OK
I'm moving on, I'll live to fight another day
No more, cos now I've got my dreams in sight

No more, from now I'm gonna be
No more, from now I'm gonna be
No more, from now I'm gonna be alright

Alright, alright
OK, OK……….Alright

"Analyse Time"

"Analyse Time"


I still remember when I would be the only one
I used to think that I'd be a darlin' boy
Never worried 'bout bad times, only wanted those good times

And then it took a nasty turn and you became the strangest one
And now I look back, I didn't help at all
Falling over my own feet, always taking that back seat, oh no

Hold on, it's analyse time again
What's wrong? so talk it out with a friend
How long before you want me again

We had our bad days but never thought that we would fall
Into the same trap that other people do
We were gonna be perfect, we were gonna be magic

Before we knew it there were cracks appearing in the photograph
It was a time bomb, a-ticking all the while
We were gonna be lovers, now we're running for cover, oh no

Hold on, it's analyse time again
What's wrong? so talk it out with a friend
How long before you want me again?

Calm down and get your feet on the ground
Come round, we're on the same side of town
Fall down, d'you want to call it an end
Hold on, it's analyse time again

We gotta put it on the straight and narrow 'fore we fall apart
We gotta get down and do it on our own
Never worried 'bout bad times, always looking at good times, good times

Hold on, it's analyse time again
What's wrong? so talk it out with a friend
How long before you want me again?
Calm down and get your feet on the ground
Come round, we're on the same side of town
Fall down, d'you want to call it an end
Hold on, it's analyse time again

Yeah, analyse time again
It's analyse time again
It's analyse time again
It's analyse time again...

"And It's Better Now"

"And It's Better Now"


Riding along on the words of a song in my head
Thinking all day of the thoughts in my mind never said
I have needed a friend, over and over again
Everyone sings of a God they have known
Now I have a God of my own

And it's better now, been a long, long time
And it's better now that the words can rhyme

Gotta have something to sing about, everyone must have a song
Now I got something to sing about, everyone's singing my song
Gotta have something to sing about, everyone must have a song
Now I got something to sing about, everyone's singing my song

Dreaming away, never wishing to be anyone
Never a question or reason to find right or wrong
When I looked at the end, over and over again
Riding along on the words of a song
Thinking my time had all gone

And it's better now, been a long, long time
And it's better now that the words can rhyme

Gotta have something to sing about, everyone must have a song
Now I got something to sing about, everyone's singing my song
Gotta have something to sing about, everyone must have a song
Now I got something to sing about, everyone's singing my song

"Another Day"

"Another Day"


You never listen when I say
I only need another day
You never listen when I tell you
What I tell you
I'm thinking what I'm thinking
I need a little time
To keep the motor ticking over now

I only need another day
Gotta find another way
We got a problem 'cos I don't know
What you're thinking
You don't care what I'm feeling
We better work it out
Or else there's gonna be a showdown now

Why do you do what you do to me?
You got no clue what you do to me
I try to say but you couldn't see
What do come don't come easily
I only need anotehr day

But it comes and it goes
And everybody knows
That I don't like it, no I don't like it
And when it flows and when it starts to go
Then I like it, I sure do like it
I hope the day never comes
You throw it all away
I only need another day

You never listen when I
You never listen when I say
I only need another day
You never listen when I tell you
What I tell you
I'm thinking what I'm thinking
I need a little time
To keep the motor ticking over now

I don't believe that we can't agree
But I ain't letting that bother me
I tried to say but you couldn't see
What do come should come easily
I only need another day

But it comes and it goes
And everybody knows
That I don't like it, no I don't like it
And when it flows and when it starts to go
Then I like it, I sure do like it
I hope the day never comes
You throw it all away

Another day, I need another day
Another day, I need another day
Another day, I need another day
