"We've Got Tonight"
(originally by Bob Seger)

"We've Got Tonight"
(originally by Bob Seger)

I know it's late
I know you're weary
I know your plans
Don't include me

Still here we are
Both of us lonely
Longing for shelter
From all that we see

Why should we worry
No one will care girl
Look at the stars
So far away

We've got tonight
Who needs tomorrow?
We've got tonight babe
Why don't you stay?

Deep in my soul
I've been so lonely
All of my hopes
Fading away

I've longed for love
Like everyone else does
I know I'll keep searching
Even after today

So there it is girl
I've said it all now
And here we are babe
What do you say?

We've got tonight
Who needs tomorrow?
We've got tonight babe
Why don't you stay?

I know it's late
I know you're weary
I know your plans
Won't include me

Still here we are,
Both of us lonely
Both of us lonely

We've got tonight,
who needs tomorrow?
Let's make it last,
Let's find a way

Turn out the light,
Come take my hand now
We've got tonight babe
Why don't you stay?

Why don't you stay?

"What A Party"

"What A Party"

Where was Jodie when the lights went out?
Standing in the corner shouting "Shout, sister, shout!"

What a party! Lordy, Lordy!
(Big fat guy, oh man, he sure could wail away!)
What a party! Lordy, Lordy!
(Big fat guy, oh man, he sure could play!)

The girl wore a dress with no shoes on
The big tenor man really blew his horn

What a party! Lordy, Lordy!
(Big fat guy, oh man he sure could wail away!)
What a party! Lordy, Lordy!
(Big fat guy, oh man, he sure could play!)

Somebody called a cop about half past four
He really just couldn't get through that door

What a party! Lordy, Lordy!
(Big fat guy, oh man he sure could wail away!)
What a party! Lordy, Lordy!
(Big fat guy, oh man, he sure could play!)

[Instrumental]

Where was Jodie when the lights went out?

"What Becomes Of The Brokenhearted"

"What Becomes Of The Brokenhearted"

As I walk this land of broken dreams
I have visions of many things
But happiness is just an illusion
Filled with sadness and confusion

What becomes of the broken-hearted
Who had love that's now departed?
I know I've got to find
Some kind of peace of mind

Maybe,
The fruits of love grow all around
But for me they come a tumblin' down
Everyday heartaches grow a little stronger
I can't stand this pain much longer

I walk in shadows, searching for light
Cold and alone, no comfort in sight
Hoping and prayin' for someone to care
Always movin' and goin' nowhere

What becomes of the broken-hearted
Who had love that's now departed?
I know I've got to find
Some kind of peace of mind
Help me, please

I'm searching though I don't succeed
for someones love
There's a growing need
all is lost, there's no place for beginning
All that's left is an unhappy ending

Now what becomes of the broken-hearted
Who had love that's now departed?
I know I've got to find
Some kind of peace of mind
I'll be searching everywhere
Just to find someone to care

I'll be looking everyday
I know I've got to find a way
Nothing's gonna stop me now
I'll find a way somehow
I'll be searching everywhere

"What Good Am I?"

"What Good Am I?"

What good am I - if I'm like all the rest
If I just turn away - when I see how you're dressed
If I shut myself off - so I can't hear you cry
What good am I?

What good am I - if I know and don't do
If I see and don't say - if I look straight through you
If I turn a deaf ear - to the thundering sky
What good am I?

What good am I - while you softly weep
And I hear in my head - what you say in your sleep
And I freeze in the moment - like the rest who don't try
What good am I?
What good am I?

What good am I then - to others and me
If I've had every chance - and yet still fail to see
With my hands tied must I - not wonder within
Who tied them and why - and where must I have been?

What good am I if I say foolish things
And I laugh in the face - of what sorrow brings
And I just turn my back - while you silently die
What good am I?
What good am I?
What good am I?

"What In The World's Come Over You"

"What In The World's Come Over You"

What in the world's come over you?
Seems we never get along (ooh, ah, ah, ah)
Ev'ry night I reminisce dreaming of your tender kisses

What in the world's come over you? (wah, wah, ooh)
Could you ever change your mind? (ah, ah, ah)
If you do, I'll still be here, dear, waiting, longing for you (ah, ah, ah)

All my life I've loved you so
Never dreamed I'd miss you so
Now, alone in my room each night
My heart, it cries "It's just not right", oh, oh, oh

What in the world's come over you?
Could you ever change your mind? (ah, ah, ah)
If you do, I'll still be here, dear, waiting, longing for you (ah, ah, ah)

All my life I've loved you so
Never dreamed I'd miss you so
Now, alone in my room each night
My heart, it cries "It's just not right", oh, oh, oh

What in the world's come over you? (wah, wah, ooh)
You're still my angel from above (ah, ah, ah)
Guess you'll always be my one and only only real lo-o-o-ove

"What The World Needs Now"

"What The World Needs Now"

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love,
No not just for some but for everyone.
Lord, we don't need another mountain,
There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb
There are oceans and rivers enough to cross,
Enough to last till the end of time.
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love,
No, not just for some but for everyone.
Lord, we don't need another meadow
There are cornfields and wheat fields enough to grow
There are sunbeams and moonbeams enough to shine
Oh listen, lord, if you want to know.
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love,
No, not just for some but for everyone.
No, not just for some, oh, but just for everyone.

"When I Fall In Love"

"When I Fall In Love"

When I fall in love it will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love
In a restless world like this is
Love is ended before its begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun

When I give my heart it will be completely
Or I'll never give my heart
And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you.

[instrumental interlude first two lines]

And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you.

"When The Deal Goes Down"

"When The Deal Goes Down"

In the still of the night, in the world's ancient light
Where wisdom grows up in strife
My bewildering brain, toils in vain
Through the darkness on the pathways of life
Each invisible prayer is like a cloud in the air
Tomorrow keeps turning around
We live and we die, we know not why
But I'll be with you when the deal goes down

We eat and we drink, we feel and we think
Far down the street we stray
I laugh and I cry and I'm haunted by
Things I never meant nor wished to say
The midnight rain follows the train
We all wear the same thorny crown
Soul to soul, our shadows roll
And I'll be with you when the deal goes down

Well, the moon gives light and it shines by night
When I scarcely feel the glow
We learn to live and then we forgive
O'r the road we're bound to go
More frailer than the flowers, these precious hours
That keep us so tightly bound
You come to my eyes like a vision from the skies
And I'll be with you when the deal goes down

Well, I picked up a rose and it poked through my clothes
I followed the winding stream
I heard the deafening noise, I felt transient joys
I know they're not what they seem
In this earthly domain, full of disappointment and pain
You'll never see me frown
I owe my heart to you, and that's sayin' it true
And I'll be with you when the deal goes down
