What am I gonna do till you come home
What am I gonna do now that you're gone
What am I gonna do without you

What am I gonna do without a man
What am I gonna do
You do the best you can
What am I gonna do without you

What am I gonna do with all my time
I'll just drown my dreams in sweet wine
What am I gonna do without you

Now what are you gonna do without me
Who's gonna give you all the things you need
What are you gonna do without me

What are you gonna do it you come home
And the woman you thought was waitin' for you is gone
What are you gonna do it you come home

Now what am I gonna do till you come home
What am I gonna do now that you're gone
What am I gonna do without you
What am I gonna do without you

Jamaica Sunday morning
April 1803
Children at the harbor waitin' to see
There beyond the breakers
Heading into view
Sunlight in you sails
It was you

But paradise is closed today
Til' the moon is full and it pulls the tide
After all these years love is still alive
She still waits on the other side

The captain tried to warn the men
As he tried to mend the sails
But a whim of the wind
Was too much for him
And he failed

And at the same time on the shoreline
She was waiting for her captain
And she never believed it
When they told her what had happened

Paradise is closed today
Til' the moon is full and it pulls the tide
After all these years love is still alive
She still waits on the other side

Jamaica Sunday morning
April 1803
Children at the harbor waitin' to see
There beyond the breakers
Heading into view
Sunlight in you sails
It was you

Stay away leave me alone
Say away from my door
'cause' you'll hurt me again
Like you hurt me before
Don't want no excuses
I don't want no more lies
I don't like crying
So I keep it inside
Do me a favor for God's sake please
Say away

Stay away out of my dreams
Stay away from my nights
You're there in the darkness
So I leave on the nights
Well I don't want no wiskey
'cause is heightens the pain
Make me call you at midnight
And beg you come back again
Do me a favor for God's sake please
Stay away

'cause time is to short
To waste it on regrets
They say it heals a broken heart
That's waiting to forget

Stay away leave me alone
Say away from my door
'cause' you'll hurt me again
Like you hurt me before
But if you should need me
Well it might be alright
I suppose you could call me up some lonely night
But do me a favor for God's sake please
Stay away

(Kim Carnes/Dave Ellingson)

Please don't keep us waiting
Hurry light up the night
Big plans in the making
And we've got to do it up right
He'll pick me up at seven
I've been ready for an hour or more
We both smile 'cause we both know
What's in store

Lookin' for a big night
Out on the town
Looking for a big night
As long as Friday rolls around
Lookin' for a big night
Out on the town
Lookin' for a big night
When every Friday rolls around

Every Monday morning
I start out feelin' real low
'Cause I've got for long nights
And five long days to go
Then I begin anticipating
Till there's no one else around
I think about you until my resistance
Don't wanna be found

Lookin' for a big night
Out on the town
Looking for a big night
As long as Friday rolls around
Lookin' for a big night
Out on the town
Lookin' for a big night
When every Friday rolls around

Comtemplating the madness
Keeps me in this state of mind
It's not the good it's the badness
That puts me over the line
Everybody should feel it
Everybody should know what it's like
To lose control
And lose your soul
To Friday night

Lookin' for a big night
Out on the town
Looking for a big night
As long as Friday rolls around
Lookin' for a big night
Out on the town
Lookin' for a big night
When every Friday rolls around

We always said we'd hire a plane
That only flies at night
And we'd stay up forever
Just watching the lights
From deck chairs on a steamer
That only sails in summer
We'd chase the sun around the moon
No captain at the rudder

We'd go to Paris
The perfect time of year
We'd go all around the world
We'd go everywhere
But first we'd go to Paris
'cause I've always wanted to
And I just can't imagine
Walking Paris without you

A train that's on a one-way track
Winding through the Alps
Christmas in a parlor car
With no one else
Hire a car that only knows
A country road in England
Time will fly
We'll drive on by

Broken dreams a broken heart
And plans that never made it
All turn into fantasies

Each night I go to Paris
And hope that you'll be there
I go all around the world
I go everywhere
But first I go to Paris
'cause I always wanted to
And I just can't imagine
Walking Paris without you

When it hurts too bad
You got to let go
Can't let him know that
He's really gotten to ya

And it hurts so bad
When you're all alone
Those old memories
Keep goin' through ya

And you wanna act nonchalant
But you can't
'Cause he keeps on haunting you

And when it hurts so bad
Gotta try and pretend
He's just a casual friend
Who never meant a thing to ya

Well you can fool your friends
And you can laugh a lot
It's all a cover up
Of what he really means to ya

And you try and act nonchalant
But you can't
'Cause he keeps on haunting you
Yes, and it hurts so bad

Oh, how can it hurt this bad
When it was never planned
But you stole my heart
And here I am
I'm possessed by you
I'm obsessed with you
What I tryin' to say
Is I love you

Now how can I act nonchalant
When all I want is
To spend the night with you

Oh, when it hurts this bad
You got to let go
Can't let him know that
He's really gotten to ya

And it hurts so bad
When you're all alone
Those old memories
Keep goin' through ya

And it hurts so bad
Oh, I know it hurts so bad
Whoa, it hurts so bad
It hurts so bad
I know it hurts so bad
It hurts so bad

(Kim Carnes)

Take a smile
And hold it longer
Take a tear
And let it roll down
Take a heart this ol' heart
And make it stronger
Cause we all have to lose in love sometime

Take tonight
And make it brighter
Take my hand
And don't let go
Cause I know you've changed changed your mind
So you better go to her
Cause we all have a right to change our mind sometimes
And we all have to lose in love sometime

And so tonight's another broken heart
In a chain that never ends
Take this broken heart
And help me mend it again

Take a smile
And hold it longer
Take a tear
And let it roll down
Take a heart this ol' heart
And make it stronger
Cause we all have to lose in love sometime

(Kim Carnes/Dave Ellingson)

I'm skeptical of banana trees
Cause they sway too much in the tropic breeze
I'm skeptical that the world is round
What keeps it up and what keeps me down
I'm skeptical that the sky is blue
But I'm not skeptical about you

Ohh-ooh babe
True blue you
You babe
True blue you

I'm skeptical of the aeroplane
If it can fly so high why can't a train
I'm skeptical of the lion's roar
Is he looking for lunch or is he just bored
I'm septical that the sky is blue
But I'm not skeptical about you

Ohh-ooh babe
True blue you
You babe
True blue you

I'm skeptical of all that's gold
I'm skeptical of growin' old
I'm skeptical of the moon above
But I'm not skeptical about love
I'm skeptical of one thing more
Than I was skeptical of the day before

Ohh-ooh babe
True blue you
You babe
True blue you

(Daniel Moore)

Be my soul mate
Help me when I stumble
When I fall I need a helping hand
I'm not ashamed to tell the world I love you
Cause you're the beacon of the storm in which I am

So take me home to where my heart is
Lift me up and lay me down and be my friend
Let's ride the wind across the mighty ocean
All the way around the world and back again

When I'm gone
Don't cry because you're lonesome
Shine you light upon the faces that you see
And remember there's a soul that loves you
And that soul my darling boy is me

So take me home to where my heart is
Lift me up and lay me down and be my friend
Let's ride the wind across the mighty ocean
All the way around the world and back again

Let's ride the wind across the mighty ocean
All the way around the world and back again

(Kim Carnes/Dave Ellingson)

Blinded by love
We're slaves to the heart
Blinded by love by the flame in the dark
Blinded by how good it feels to be blinded by love

We're fallin' apart
And we never saw it coming
I guess we ignored every sign
Blinded by love
We both closed our eyes
And as we were drowning
We were both smiling

We're blinded by love
We're slaves to the heart
Blinded by love by the flame in the dark
Blinded by how good it feels
To be blinded by love

What becomes of two people
Who don't see things the same way
But don't wanna hurt an old friend
Careful with words that might show our hand
Guess we're blinded by love till the end

Blinded by love
We're slaves to the heart
Blinded by love by the flame in the dark
Blinded by how good it feels to be blinded by love

(Kim Carnes/Dave Ellingson)

Navy blue sky outside my green room
Apple of my eye
Left way too soon
Got the window open
And I can see the sky
Goodnight room
Goodnight moon

Goodnight moon
You're a good night moon
Goodnight moon
Keep shinin' on me
And everyone you see

Night bloomin' jasmine
Is so sweet to me
I'm as sleepy as I ever have been
But I just can't sleep
Everything's so quiet
Guess I'll just close my eyes
For awhile for awhile

Goodnight moon
You're a good night moon
Goodnight moon
Keep shinin' on me
And everyone you see

Hey goodnight to you out there
Goodnight children everywhere
You're a good night moon
See ya real soon
Goodnight room
Goodnight moon
