I've seen it in your eyes
And I've heard it in your voice
The way you speak my name
Tells me there's no doubt
That the dream that i held on for
Will be everlasting

You know poverty
Can be romantic
In black and white
It looks like art
Just as long as we're together
I couldn't care less

We've got
Harmony and understanding
It's love for the first time
Like the morning sun that's breaking
Giving out that special light

True love
True love
We've got true love
True love

We've laid the right foundations
And we've built our love on trust
No one can tear the walls down
That surrounds us
We've got
Harmony and understanding
It's love for the first time
Like the morning sun that's breaking
Giving out that special light

True love
True love
We've got true love
True love

Now I'm certain of the future
We've got
Harmony and understanding
It's love for the first time
Like the morning sun that's breaking
Giving out that special light

True love
True love
We've got true love
True love

You can't buy a faithful heart
Or true love

. . .


I don't mind if you tell me
That you're never coming back no more
Don't mind if you say
A dozen women got babies
And they're all yours
Don't mind if you tell me
That you got to work late tonight
No matter what you're saying
As long as you say it while

You hold me in your arms
Squeeze me nice and tight
Let's get down to business
I hear you speak
But my lips still seek your kisses
I know I'm crazy

There's women who want you for your money
Well they get what they deserve
May you never
Reach rock bottom babe
But I'd be there
With some extra fine clothes
So you can

Take me on the town
Flaunt our love around
Dancing rude
We're gonna leave
Cos the steam will start a hissin'
You drive me crazy

Let me
Hold you in my arms
Hug your breath away
Let's get down to business
My younger days
Must have lacked some supervision
You lead me astray

Me myself and I want you
I know you're a lover who can't be true
I'm lucky that I got you
To show me love and affection
Tonight
Let's get down to business
I hear you speak
But my lips still seek your kisses
I know I'm crazy

Hold me in your arms
Squeeze me nice and tight
Let's get down to business
I hear you speak
But, my lips still seek your kisses
Drive me crazy

. . .


I've been steady
I've been sweet
Said you loved me
And I believed
It's time
To make up my own mind
I picked the wrong guy
I picked the wrong guy

I might plead
On bended knees
But lately
She's the one you need
It's time
To make up my own mind
I picked the wrong guy
I picked the wrong guy

I don't want to lose your love
But I can see you
Wrapped around her
Wrapped around her
I can see you
Wrapped around her

I don't want to lose your love
But I can see you
Wrapped around her
Wrapped around her
I can see you
Wrapped around her

I put rhythm
In your soul
Gave you sweet
Rock and roll
I know it's mad
I was so blind
I picked the wrong guy
I picked the wrong guy

I don't want to lose your love
But I can see you
Wrapped around her
Wrapped around her
I can see you
Wrapped around her

No good crying now
The milk has spilled but you know
You didn't fool our friends
They always said you were naughty
Ooh
I picked the wrong guy
I picked the wrong guy
I picked the wrong guy

I don't want to lose your love
But I can see you
Wrapped around her
Wrapped around her
I can see you
Wrapped around her

(Repeat)

Shell me with questions all night
I'm living in a danger zone
Like a sword of destruction
Eating at your very soul

Possessed by emotional tides
Your love is a chain
Ooh hoo hoo

Sometimes I don't wanna go home
Cos I know it's gonna start again
Sometimes I don't wanna to home
Cos I know it's gonna start again

I'm the soul of discretion
Your mountain is a grain of sand
And I'm tired of the life that I live
Ruled by your iron hand

Stop picking on me
It's getting down from bad to worse
Stop picking on me

Is this love
Is this love
Is this love
Is this love

Sometimes I don't wanna go home
Cos I know it's gonna start again
Sometimes I don't wanna go home
Cos I know it's gonna start again

Shell me with questions all night
I'm living in a danger zone
Obsessed and emotional
Your love is a chain

Sometimes I don't wanna go home
Sometimes I don't wanna go home

Sometimes I don't wanna go home
Cos I know it's gonna start again
Sometimes I don't wanna go home
Cos I know it's gonna start again

You lean your back against the wall
Push your hands in your pocket
You look down

Pacing the floor
You look out the window
Beyond the view

Shake your body
As if against the cold
Your mind wanders

Tell me what you're trying to say
Tell me what you're trying to say
I won't stop
Loving you

We sit down together
You start to draw a ring
Square the circle
Then draw some lines

Push the paper
But keep the pen you hold
You need your hands occupied

Tell me what you're trying to say
Tell me what you're trying to say
I won't stop
I won't stop
Loving you

Let your fingers intertwine
Put your hands behind your head
Lean back
And close your eyes
And tell me

Tell me What you've got on your mind
Tell me
Tell me

. . .


Darling
I've got to tell you what I've done
I know
I'm gonna fill your heart with pain
But please believe me
I'm never gonna do it again

I said please
Forgive this weak woman
I said please
Forgive this weak woman
I had to tell you
The heart was strong
But the flesh was willing

Now I can't explain it
Cos no one looks as good as you
I was struck by lightning
I was blinded
I was so confused
Before I knew it
I was dancing across the room

I said please
Forgive this weak woman
I said please
Forgive this weak woman
I had to tell you
The heart was strong
But the flesh was willing

Please
Forgive this weak woman
I said please
Forgive this weak woman
I had to tell you
The heart was strong
But the flesh was willing

Never wanted to hurt you baby
How did I get in this mess
My eyes were bigger than my memory
How could I forget
Please
I had to tell you
I had to tell you
Forgive me this one time
I had to tell you
Forgive me this one time

Please
Forgive this weak woman
I said please
Forgive this weak woman
I had to tell you
The heart was strong
But the flesh was willing

. . .


Can't get your attention
No matter how I try
This fascination
Infatuation
I got to have it
Now I know you got it
Can I get next to you yeh

I always figured
Love was overrated
Call me fickle
Cos now it's just the greatest
This attraction
Was unpremeditated
Hold my hand
Please

Do do wop
Do do wop
Do do wop
Do do wop

Can't get your attention
No matter how I try
Infation
This fascination
I got to have it
Now I know you got it
Can I get next to you yeh
Can I get next to you yeh

Do do wop
Do do wop
Do do wop
Do do wop

. . .


Tried to do the best for you
Things I said
Were meant to last
Loved you so
I hate to go
I feel strong with you

I know I deserve this
If I could change the hands of time
Turn back the page

I can't get over
How I broke your heart
And the moment
That I lost my pride
And I can't forget
That look in your eyes
You were begging me
Don't make you cry
Loved you so
I almost said
I was home alone
But i couldn't see you more hurt
When you found out the lie

Not your fault
Not your fault
I know I've deceived you
I let my head be ruled While my conscience told me
If I get caught
Our love will end
I didn't seem to care

Now I can't get over
How I broke your heart
And the moment
That I lost my pride
And I can't forget
That look in your eyes
You were begging me
Don't make you cry
Now I can't get over
How I tore my whole world apart

I can't get over
How I broke your heart
And the moment
And I can't forget
That look in your eyes
You were begging me

Love you so I always will
Though you're miles from me
And I can't get over
How I tore my whole world apart

I can get over
How I broke your heart
And the moment
And I can't forget
That look in your eyes
You were begging me

I can get over
How I broke your heart
And the moment
That I lost my pride
And I can't forget
That look in your eyes
You were begging me
Don't make you cry

. . .


Loving your sweet ways
Loving the funny things you say
Loving the silence
Wrapped in my man's arms at the end of the day

Loving the way you
Make me feel
That women rule the world if women ruled the world
It would be a good thing

No more war
No more hate
Women can fight
But talking's great
Behind your back
To your face
They'd rather talk
Than murder

Not all men kill babies
But a woman would rather
Kill herself
Than see a child suffer
Women are carers
They were born that way

Like mother nature feeds the world
A woman will think of her child first
No more sons dying young
Women bore sons for living

No more war
No more hate
Women can fight
But talking's great
Behind your back
To your face
They'd rather talk
Than murder

I love how you love me
Make me feel that
Women rule the world
If women ruled the world
It would be a good thing

Like mother nature feeds the world
A woman will think of her child first
No more sons dying young
Women bore sons for living

No more war
No more hate
Women can fight
But talking's great
Behind your back
To your face
They'd rather talk
Than murder

If women ruled the world

. . .


What was so special
We were exact
So much together
We were like that
You'd send chills down my spine
Or burn me up
With your desire

What happened to you and me
And the love that we once knew

I read the letters
I found the cards
Not hidden well
I thought love
Transcended lust
I guess my heart was wishing

What happened to you and me
And the love that we once knew
You never said it would end
And I thought we were unique

Safe and sound
Cradled in your love

What happened to you and me
And the love that we once knew
You never said it would end
And I thought we were unique

You never said it would end
And I thought I could depend
On a life time
Spent with you
