You made me need you
Need you so bad
Would you believe
And never so mad, oh yeah
Double cross me once, and never cross me again
Now you're running 'round looking for some sympathy
Well you know as well as I that we're history

You're lucky, I'm a civlized man
You're lucky, I'm a civilized man
Oh yeah, a civilized man

A poison arrow, right from the start
Right down to zero, you went for my heart
Oh yeah
You've been hoo doo, voodoo
Start the fire again
Now you ask me to forget all you've brought me to
When you know as well as I you've got it coming to you

You're lucky, I'm a civlized man
You're lucky, I'm a civilized man
Oh yeah, a civilized man

You've been hoo doo, voodoo
Start the fire again
Now you're running 'round looking for some sympathy
Well you know as well as I that we're history

You're lucky, I'm a civlized man
You're lucky, I'm a civilized man
Oh you're so lucky baby
For I'm a civilized boy
Oh yeah
That's what I am, oh

. . .


There goes my baby
movin' on down the line

Wonderin' where
wonderin' where
wonderin' where she is bound.
I broke her heart and made her cry.
Now I'm alone
oh
so all alone. What can I do? What can I do?
There goes my baby
there goes my baby.
Movin' on down the line
movin' on down the line.
Wonderin' where
wonderin' where
wonderin' where she is bound.
I wanna know
I wanna know:
Did she love me
did she really love me?
Was she just playing me for a fool?
I wonder why she left me. -
Why did she leave me so all alone
so all alone?
There goes my baby
there goes my baby. . . .
I'm gonna tell her that I need her

Oh
how I need her right by my side to be my guide.
I will know: Where is my baby
where is my baby-love?
I've been wonderin'
wonderin' where she's bound and gone.
There goes my baby
there goes my baby. . . .
She took my heart
left me crying
oh
so hard suffering.
There goes my baby
there goes my baby. . . .
Where's she gone? Where's she gone?
There goes my baby
there goes my baby. . ..

Come on in, Look around
Try to see what's going down
We're gonna sing our songs to you
We hope it makes you feel good, too

Come on in, Stay awhile
We're gonna try to make you smile
Rock and roll gets in your soul
Makes you feel so natural, yeah!

We'd like to try to make you happy
Now you can be just what you want to be
So let's be friends no matter what you see

Come on in
Let yourself go
Come on in
Ow! It's Rock and Roll

[Instrumental]

Come on in, Stay awhile
We're gonna try to make you smile
Rock and roll gets in your soul
Makes you feel so natural, yeah!

I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste
A flannel for my face
Pyjamas, a hairbrush
New shoes and a case
I said to my reflection
Let's get out of this place
Past the church and the steeple
The laundry on the hill
Billboards and the buildings
Memories of it still
Keep calling and calling
But forget it all
I know I will

Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
What's been going on
Now that you have gone
There's no other
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered

I'm at the car park, the airport
The baggage carousel
The people keep on crowding
I'm wishing I was well
I said it's no occasion
It's no story I could tell

At my bedside empty pocket
A foot without a sock
Your body gets much closer
I fumble for the clock
Alarmed by the seduction
I wish that it would stop

I bought a novel, some perfume
A fortune all for you
But it's not my conscience
That hates to be untrue
I asked of my reflection
Tell me what is there to do

. . .


She was sittin' there kinda' distant
Eyes half closed
She took a long drag off a cigarette
And let it real slow

I felt something click in between her and me
That's when she turned around and said
"Hey, Long time no see"
Looks like luck's been on your side
Knock on wood
I don't know what or who finally got through to you
'Coz I never could
Me, I keep walking back into the fire
Hey, is being confused some kind of sin?
But tonight I'm gonna turn around and walk right outa' here
Before I get back into trouble again

Man I feel kinda' distant
Layin' here with my eyes half closed
I'm gonna take a long drag off a cigarette
And let it out real slow

. . .

I Love The Night

[Нет текста]

. . .


Ain't funny how time
Steals the feelings from a love affair
And there's no place to lay the blame
Cause it ain't a case of no one cares
Helplessly we just watch it fade away
Neither of us will admit it
But we're both aching to say
Weeooh I miss the days when we were
Crazy in love
When you weren't so sure of me
And I had my little jealousies
Weeooh bring back the days when we were
Crazy in love
I want to feel that way again
Remember when
We were crazy in love
It used to be so easy
One touch and I was high
I could get intoxicated
Just by looking in your eyes
Baby ain't there anything we can do
Cause I know you're missing me
As much as I've been missing you
Weeooh I miss the days when we were
Crazy in love
When you weren't so sure of me
And I had my little jealousies
Weeooh bring back the days when we were
Crazy in love
I want to feel that way again
Remember when
We were crazy in love
We were more than best of friends
We were crazy in love

. . .

A Girl Like You

[Нет текста]

Hold on
Hold on
Hold on

Turn out the light, sleep won't come
I think about what's going wrong
Lying so close, so alone
Please turn to me, I'm almost gone

Hold on
I feel our love is changing
Hold on
Please don't let me disappear

Hold on
There's time for rearranging
Hold on
I'm not me without you here

Hold on
Hold on
Hold on

Put out your hand, touch desire
Where there's a spark, could be a fire
Open your arms, let me see
If there is still love in you for me

Hold on
I feel our love is changing
Hold on
Please don't let me disappear

Hold on
There's time to rearrange things
Hold on
I'm not me without you here

Hold on
Hold on
Hold on

. . .


It's funny how love goes
Cause I know this will never work out
But darlin' my love grows
Even though there's noreason to doubt
This can never be
You keep sayin' it's wrong
Neither of us is free
Still I want to hold on
When even a fool would let go
Cause she knows that there's no use in tryin'
Even a child would say no
When she knows that she'll end up crying
Tell me now it is wise holding you
When even a fool would let go

My love is no reason
Like the words in a song that don't rhyme
My love's got no season
I just know that it's there all the time
Baby just you and me
I can't believe that's wrong
Thinkin' 'bout you and me
Makes me want to hold on
|: When even a fool would let go
Cause she knows there's no use tryin'
Even a child would say no
When she knows that she'll end up crying
Tell me now is it wise holding you
When even a fool would let go
When even a fool would let go
