"Slow Down"

"Slow Down"


Don't run so fast, love
Slow down and let me catch you baby

I've got a story to tell
About a girl I know well
She loved this guy
Heaven knows why
How could she love him

Everytime this guy she'd see
With another girl he'd be
He didn't even notice
She was crying

Don't run so fast, love
Slow down and let me catch you baby

She'd choose her clothes with care
She'd curl and set her hair
And hope someday, that he'd look her way
He was too busy

He was always on the run
Breaking hearts and havin' fun
He couldn't see she was the one that needed him

Each night she'd cry in fear
That he would never hear
Her heart and soul cry out
I know it's love beyond a doubt

By now you all must see
This girl I know is me
Though I feel like crying
I won't stop trying to make him love me

I've shown you a part of my soul
But many things I've left untold
Until he's mine to have and hold
Forever

Don't run so fast, love
Slow down and let me catch you baby
I need your arms around me tight, baby
Slow down
Slow down, baby

"Standing At The Crossroads Of Love"

"Standing At The Crossroads Of Love"


I'm standing at the crossroads of love
I'm standing at the crossroads of love
Don't know which way to go
Don't know which way to turn
Though the love I give is not returned
For that boy
My heart still yearns

So I'm standing at the crossroads of love
'Cause when I'm with him he mistreats me
Runs around and cause me misery
But I love him
I can't deny
And without him
I'd surely die
It hurts to be with him
And it hurts to be without him

So I'm standing at the crossroads of love
Just standing at the crossroads of love
Don't know which way
Don't know which way to go
Don't know which way
Don't know which way to turn

There's always tears on my pillow
'Cause I'm always in the middle
Of heartache and emotion
Heartbreak and devotion
Loving, caring, when it's despairing
Trying to be true
Though it makes me blue

So I'm standing at the crossroads of love
Just standing at the crossroads of love
Don't know which way to turn
Don't know which way to turn
I'm standing at the crossroads

"Stoned Love"

"Stoned Love"


Now I wanna tell you of a great love
Oh, it will light up
It will surely light up
The world
If you'll just believe

Stoned love
(Stoned love)
Mm-hmm
Mm-hmm
Stoned love
Oh, yeah

A love for each other will bring fighting to an end
Forgiving one another, time after time, doubt creeps in
But like the sun lights up the sky with a message from above
Oh, yeah, I find no other greater symbol of this love

Yeah, don't you hear the wind blowin'?
Mm-hmm
Stoned love, oh, yeah
I tell you, I ain't got no other
Mm-hmm
Stoned love, oh, yeah

Life is so short, put the present time at hand
Oh, yeah, and if you're young at heart, rise up and take your stand
And to the man on whose shoulder the world must depend
I pray for peace and love, amen

Can't you feel it?
Stoned love
I tell you, I ain't got no other
Uh-huh
Stoned love, oh, yeah

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

If a war 'tween our nations passed, oh, yeah
Will the love 'tween our brothers and sisters last?
On and on and on and on and

Mm, mm, mm
Stoned love, yeah
I tell you, I ain't got no other
Mm-hmm
Stoned love
Can't you, can't you, can't you, can't you, can't you feel it?
Mm-hmm
Stoned love
Oh, yeah, stoned, stoned, stoned, stoned
Mm-hmm
Stoned love
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Uh-huh
Stoned love
Oh, yeah, yeah, uh-huh
Mm-hmm

"Stop! In The Name Of Love"

"Stop! In The Name Of Love"


Stop in the name of love
Before you break my heart

Baby baby, I'm aware of where you go
Each time you leave my door
I watch you walk down the street
Knowing your other love you'll meet

But this time before you run to her
Leaving me alone and hurt
(Think it over)
Haven't I been good to you?
(Think it over)
Haven't I been sweet to you?

Stop in the name of love
Before you break my heart
Stop in the name of love
Before you break my heart
Think it over
Think it over

I've known of your, your secluded nights
I've even seen her, maybe one or twice
But is her sweet expression
Worth more than my love and affection?

This time before you leave my arms
And rush off to her charms
(Think it over)
Haven't I been good to you?
(Think it over)
Haven't I been sweet to you?

Stop in the name of love
Before you break my heart
Stop in the name of love
Before you break my heart
Think it over
Think it over

I've tried so hard, hard to be patient
Hoping you'll stop this infatuation
But each time you are together
I'm so afraid of losing you forever

Stop in the name of love
Before you break my heart (Baby, think it over)
Stop in the name of love (Think it over, baby)
Before you break my heart (Ooh, think it over, baby)

Stop in the name of love
Before you break my heart
Stop in the name of love
Before you break my heart

"Stormy"

"Stormy"


You were the sunshine baby
Whenever you smile
But I call you Stormy today
All of a sudden that old rains fallin' down
And my world is cloudy and gray
You've gone away

Stormy, ooh Stormy
Bring back that sunny day

Yesterday's love was like the warm summer breeze
But like the weather, you change
Now things are dreary baby
And it's windy and cold
And I stand alone in the rain
Calling your name

Ooh Stormy, ooh Stormy
Bring back that sunny day
Bring 'em back, bring 'em back

Ooh Stormy, ooh Stormy
Bring back that sunny day
Bring 'em back, bring 'em back
Bring back that sunny day
Stormy, stormy

"Stranger In Paradise"

"Stranger In Paradise"


Take my hand
I'm a stranger in Paradise
All lost in a wonderland
A stranger in Paradise

If I stand starry-eyed
That's a danger in Paradise
For mortals who stand beside
An angel like you

I saw your face
And I ascended
Out of the commonplace
Into the rare

Somewhere in space
I hang suspended
Until I know
There's a chance that you care

Won't you answer that fervent prayer
Of a stranger in Paradise
Don't send me in dark despair
From all that I hunger for

But open your angel arms
To a stranger in Paradise
And tell her that she need be
A stranger no more

"Sunset"

"Sunset"


Sunset, sunset
It's sunset, it's sunset

You went and left happy
You're all alone
You turned and walked away
About this time of day
It was always sunset

Sunset
I didn't want you to see me cry
So I turned my head
To hide the tears in my eyes
I turned when evening shadows fall
That's when I miss you most of all

And oh, it's sunset
Oh, sunset

"Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious"

"Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious"


Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it
Is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough
You'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Because I was afraid to speak
When I was just a lad
My father gave me nose a tweak
And told me I was bad
But then one day I learned a word
That saved me aching nose
The biggest word I ever heard
And this is how it goes:

Oh, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it
Is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough
You'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

So when the cat has got your tongue
There's no need for dismay
Just summon up this word
And then you've got a lot to say
But better use it carefully
Or it can change your life
One night I said it to me guy
And now I am his wife!

She's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
No matter how you use this word

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Expialic

A precious part of me

"Sweet Thing"

"Sweet Thing"


Sweet thing, you make my heart sing
You turn darkness into light
You make everything alright
Sweet thing, you make the bells ring
Ding dong, and sweet and true
Attaching me to you.

(Sweeter than the taste of sugar cane)
No sugar cane could be
As sweet as you are to me
(Sweeter than whatever you can name)
Like candy, cake or honey
Wouldn? give you up for love or money.

Sweet thing, you are my everything
You're all I need and more
Than my heart a-bargained for
Sweet thing, you are what's happening
You're just a bundle of love
Happiness and love.

Sweeter than the taste of honey dew
A honey-dew male is sweet, it's true
But it just ain't quite as sweet as you
Sweeping is the way to measure you
I look at the scale and it's a shame
I have more sweetness inch to inch
I have more sweetness pound to pound
Than any other sweet thing I have found.

Sweet thing, sweet, sweet thing
Sweet thing, sweet, sweet thing.

Sweeter than the taste of honey dew
A honey-dew male is sweet, it's true
But it just ain't quite as sweet as you
Sweeping is the way to measure you
I look at the scale and it's a shame
I have more sweetness inch to inch
I have more sweetness pound to pound
Than any other sweet thing I have found.

Sweet thing, you are what's happening
You're just a bundle of love
Happiness and love
Say it, sweet thing, you are my everything
You're all I need and more
Than my heart a-bargained for
Sweet thing, you make my heart sing
You turn darkness into light
You make everything alright
Sweet thing, you make the bells ring
Ding dong, and sweet and true
Attaching me to you.
