Альбом Michael Bolton

Lost in the city
I'm movin' around
To the sound of the song
I've been...living

High altitudes mixed
With wrong attitudes
Make me wonder
Just what I've been...giving
Why has it taken so long
Tell me where I belong

Ooh ooh
Love can open the door
Through these eyes I see
And love has opened this heart
For me

See you, I see you fly high
All above all of this
Makes me miss home
And the freedom

I've known for so long
Why has it taken so long
Tell me where I went wrong
Ooh ooh

Everybody needs a reason
To make it through another day
And everybody needs a reason
Try and find another way

I've been up, I've been down
Seemed like one long, lonely ride
Wish I'd been usin', time I could be usin'
To learn about myself inside
That's not a hard thing to do

Everybody needs a reason
Doesn't matter who they are
And everybody needs a reason
To make it to the shootin' star

So many people, don't understand
Never live, but waiting to die
I wish I could reach them
I really wanna teach them
Something so good going on inside

Maybe they don't like it, maybe they do
This is the way, it's all coming true
Everybody needs a reason
Everybody needs to know
Maybe things are changin'
I really don't know
Knowing things is helping to grow

Everybody needs a reason
Everybody needs to know
(Repeat X3)

Oh will someone tell me
What it is I feel
Whatever it is
I know it can't be real
'Cause your love
Is turning me around
I know I'm lost
But I don't wanna be found

Oh, no, I don't believe in love
Honey, I don't believe in love

If I was wise, I'd be on my way
I wanna leave, but I know
I'm gonna stay
'Cause your love is making me lazy
come on inside, Darlin'
Drive me crazy

Oh, no, I don't believe it
I don't believe in love
Honey, I don't believe in love

Is it right, baby, is it wrong
All i know is what I've been hearing so long
I got this feeling and it's much too strong
Baby, it's much too strong
Much too strong

You're everything I ever would need
But what are you doing mama, let me be
'Cause your love is burning like fire
You are my one and only desire

Oh, I don't believe it, I don't believe it
I said, I don't believe in love
Oh, 'cause your love is much too strong
'Cause your love is much too strong

I don't believe it, I don't believe in love
I don't believe it, just don't believe in love

It's not the tape this song is recorded on
It's not the way it ought to be done
It's not the words that the singer is singin'
It's not the way the music is played
I know it's nothin' new
'Cause it's all been done before

It's just a feelin' baby
A feelin', oh yeah, a feelin' baby
It's just a feelin'
That's all it's been
That's all it's ever been

It's not the things you say to me
When we're alone and the lights are low
It's not the smile on your face in the morning
Baby, that keeps me comin' home to you at night
Don't understand what it does
But your love comes shinin' through

It's just a feelin', baby
It's a feelin', oh
Oh, a feelin' baby
It's a feelin' that keeps me coming back
I want to tell you right now

Nothing is going to change, baby
When your love, your love comes through
It's just a feelin', baby
A feelin', oh, feelin' baby
Just a feelin' baby, ooh
It's just a feelin', it's just a feelin' baby

Dream little child, dream while you can
Dream my child, dream while you can
Of everything that I would dream
If I had the time, dream while you can

And fly little child, fly while you can
Fly my child, away while you can
Far out places and new born lands
Fly while you can

And be little child, be while you can
Be my child, free while you can
Anything that you wanna be
Well, it's in your hands
Be while you can

Dream little child, dream while you can
Dream my child, dream while you can
Of everything that I would dream
If I had the time, but dream while you can

Dream while you can
Fly away while you can
Be free while you can
Dream while you can, dream away
Dream away while you can

Fly away, fly away
While you can
Be free, be free
While you still can

Ooh, dream while you can
Fly away, dream while you can

Woman, you don't understand
Oh, I'm just a man
Baby, that's all I am
That's all I have ever been
And you, you don't understand
Oh, I've gotta live

You make it so hard to do
you know you hurt me, baby
Take me, take me as I am
Take me as I am, Baby
Ooh, ooh, take me as I am

All I believe is that you've taken me
For some kind of dream
I don't want to wait too long
For my love is in the way to see it
I don't wanna lose you, baby
But your love is in the way

Ya gotta listen
It's time to listen to me
You, you don't realize
Oh, I've gotta live
You make it so hard to bear
It may be hard for me to go on

And I know, I know, I know
You'll understand
I'm just a man, baby
That's all I am
Don't make it hard on me

Just take me, take me as I am, baby
Take me as I am, baby
Take me as I am, oh
Take me as I am, Baby
Oh, take me as I am now

These eyes, cry every night for you
These arms, they long to hold you again
The hurtin's on me
And I will never be free, no
Gave a promise to me
Then you broke it, and you broke it

These eyes, watched you bring my world to an end
This heart, just could not accept and pretend
The hurtin's on me
I will never be free, no
You took a vow with me
And you spoke it, when you spoke it

CHORUS
These eyes, are cryin'
These eyes have seen alot of love
But they're never gonna see another
One like I had with you
(Repeat X2)

These eyes, watched you bring my world to an end
This heart, just could not accept and pretend

CHORUS X2
These eyes, cry every night for you
These eyes

If you need me, know I'll soon be with you
Just call me, I'll give you all the love
I can give you
Didn't you see the look on my face today
You know I'll always be your slave

CHORUS
You mean more to me
Than I ever thought anyone would
You mean more to me
Than I ever thought anyone could
And when you look into my eyes
You know I'll love you all my life
Gonna love you all my life

My love for you is filling up my days
You know you shine on me in oh, so many ways
I guess I'm only trying to say
My heart is yours and yours to stay

CHORUS

If I had my way
Fly into the air
You know I would
And if I had my way
Fly without a care
You know I would
And if I had your love
If I only had your love
There'd be no if I had's at all

If there was a road
Travel down that road
To get to you
If there was a mountain
You know I'd climb that mountain, too
'Cause if I had your love
If I only had your love
There's be no if I had's at all

If I had your love
If I only had your love
There'd be no if I had's at all
There'd be no if I had's at all
If I had your love
If I only had your love
If I had your love
If I only had your love

Just give me a reason for loving you
Just one reason for the things that you do
I wanna know, can you tell me it's true
I should love you the way I do

(I don't know why I love you like I do)
I don't know
(I don't know why I love you like I do)

Well you know I've been hurt
And you made me feel like a fool
And you told me things
That you know you didn't mean
I'll let you in on it, I love you so madly
I don't know why I love you the way I do

(I don't know why I love you like I do)
Oh, I don't know why I love you like I do
(I don't know why I love you like I do)

Oh, I know sometimes you treat me so cold
Baby, oh it hurts me down inside
But one of these days I'm gonna
Let you down so hard
You're gonna sit and wonder

Give me a reason why I love you
Just one reason for the things that you do
I wanna know
Can you tell me it's true
'Cause I love you the way I do

I don't know why I love you like I do
(I don't know why I love you like I do)
I don't know why
(I don't know why I love you like I do)
I don't know
(I don't know why I love you like I do)
Gimme a reason
(I don't know why I love you like I do)
Oh, just give me a reason
(I don't know why I love you like I do)

If there's anything on your mind, I'm open
It there's anything in your heart, honey, I'm open
But how can I ever be a man
If you won't open up and let me understand
Oh oh oh oh yeah

CHORUS
Come on and tell me how you feel
I really wanna know
If this love is gonna be real
You gotta let your feeling show

If your backs against the wall, I'm open
If you're climbing high and you fall, I'm open
Now if you need me to understand
You know I can't unless you let me in
Oh oh oh oh yeah

CHORUS
'Cause I've been honest with you
There's nothing more I wanna do
I just wanna give you my love
I only wanna give you my love
Yeah, take it baby, oh oh

Tell me how you feel
I really wanna know
Tell me how you feel, baby
I really gotta know
Tell me how you feel, baby
Tell me how you feel
I really wanna know
I really wanna know

Time is on my side, yes it is
Time is on my side, oh yes it is
'Cause I got the real love
The kind that you need
So you'll come runnin' back
That you'll come runnin back
You'll come runnin' back to me

Time is on my side, yes it is
Time is on my side, oh yes it is, baby
'Cause you always said
That you want to be free
But you'll come runnin' back
You'll come runnin' back
You'll come runnin' back to me, to me

Go ahead, go ahead and lie to me, baby
And do anything that you wanna do
And I told ya, ya know I told ya so many times before
You're gonna come back, baby
You're gonna come back
Knockin' at my door

Time is on my side, yes it is
Time is on my side, oh yes it is
'Cause I got the real love
The kind that you need
So you'll come runnin' back
That you'll come runnin' back
You'll come runnin' back to me, to me, to me

Oh, time is on my side
You know it is
