Words & Music by Mick Hucknall, Daryl Hall, John Oates & Sara Allen

As I look into your eyes I see the sunrise
The light behind your face helps me realise

Will we sleep and sometimes love until the moon shines
Maybe the next time I’ll be yours and maybe you’ll be mine

I don’t know if it’s even in your mind at all
It could be me
At this moment in time
Is it in your mind at all
It should be me, it could be me
Forever

Wandering through life will love come home to you
And the love you want forever, will they be true to you

Will we sleep and sometimes love until the moon shines
Maybe the next time I’ll be yours and maybe you’ll be mine

I don’t know if it’s even in your mind at all
It could be me
At this moment in time
Love’s indescribable
It should be me, it could be me
Forever

Easy, ready, willing, over time
Where does it stop where do you dare me to draw the line
You’ve got the body now you want my soul
Don’t even think about it say no go

. . .


Words and music Mick Hucknall

Anyone who ever held you
Would tell you the way I'm feeling
Anyone who ever wanted you
Would try to tell you what I feel inside
The only thing I ever wanted
Was the feeling that you ain't faking
The only one you ever thought about
Wait a minute can't you see that I

I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I, I feel you
I hope you comprehend

For the man who tried to hurt you
He's explaining the way I'm feeling
For all the jealousy I caused you
States the reason why I'm trying to hide
As for all the things you taught me
It sends my future into clearer dimensions
You'll never know how much you hurt me
Stay a minute can't you see that I

I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I, I feel you
I hope you comprehend

Too many hearts are broken
A lover's promise never came with a maybe
So many words are left unspoken
The silent voices are driving me crazy
As for all the pain you caused me
Making up could never be your intention
You'll never know how much you hurt me
Stay can't you see that I

I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I, I feel you
I hope you comprehend

. . .


Words and music Mick Hucknall

I was bowled out
I was sold down the river 
And her warm heart
Would turn me forever

She's turned me round
A new flame has come
And nothing she can do
Can do me wrong

I am stern now
Petty words
Don't believe me
But her warm smile
Is never gonna leave me

She's turned me round
A new flame has come
And nothing she can do
Can do me wrong

Wrong oh no
Wrong oh no

She's made of real glass
She got real real emotion
But my heart laughs
I have that same 
Sweet devotion

She's turned me round
A new flame has come
And nothing she can do
Can do me wrong

Wrong oh no
Wrong oh no
Nothing she can do
Can ever do me wrong

. . .


Words Mick Hucknall Music Mick Hucknall & Neil Moss

Holding back the years
Thinking of the fear I've had so long
When somebody hears
Listen to the fear that's gone
Strangled by the wishes of pater
Hoping for the arms of mater
Get to me the sooner or later

Holding back the years
Chance for me to escape from all I've known
Holding back the tears
Cause nothing here has grown
I've wasted all my tears
Wasted all those years
And nothing had the chance to be good
Nothing ever could yeah

I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
So tight

I've wasted all my tears
Wasted all of those years
And nothing had the chance to be good
Cause nothing ever could oh yeah

I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
Holding, holding, holding

That's all I have today
It's all I have to say

. . .


Words and music Jimmy & Vella Cameron

It's only love
It's only love

Don't be afraid to touch me babe
Girl let's be real
There's nothing wrong
With the way we're carrying on
So enjoy and live
Because
It's only love doing it's thing baby
It's only love that you're feeling
It's only love doing it's thing baby
It's only love that you're giving

I wanna stay with you night and day
Until the end of time
It's OK when you lay
Lay your body next to mine
Because
It's only love doing it's thing baby
It's only love that you're feeling
It's only love doing it's thing baby
It's only love that you're giving

. . .


Words and music Mick Hucknall

In the middle of the night, when the time is right
Sexily right, I'm gonna do the right thing
Gonna move you slow, much harder though
Sexily so, I'm gonna do the right thing
Feelin' hot, I ain't never gonna stop
To get what you got, you better take what I bring
Feel it now, much harder now
More than any old how, say you feel the pain

Feel I'm getting harder now, get off your back four
Get on top more owww!
Feel I'm sinking farther down, get off your back four
Get on top more

I told you to stop, "You're sleeping out a lot"
You told me get lost, where's your understanding
I feel it now much harder than I've ever done now
I'd better do the right thing

I'm gonna do the right thing
I'm gonna do the right thing

Feel I'm getting harder now, get off your back four
Get on top more owww!
Feel I'm sinking farther down, get off your back four
Get on top more

In the middle of the night, when the time is right
Sexily right, I'm gonna do the right thing
Gonna move you slow, much harder than I've ever done now
I'm gonna do the right thing

I'm gonna do the right thing
I'm gonna do the right thing

I'm on fire
I'm on fire
You know I told you that I would never dream of leaving
If I did it right
I'm gonna do the right thing

. . .


Words and music Mick Hucknall

I've got to stand up for myself
This society don't care about nobody else
I've got to be strong
Even if I know that this feeling is wrong
I've got to not care
Even if I know that this world is meant to
Share

Wait a minute. This is wrong
Even the birds still sing their faithful song
And your beauty lies within you
Look in the mirror baby
Look in the mirror baby

What you gonna do when your friends have 
Gone away
And deserted you
You'll have to be strong
24 hours can seem so long
You're taught to not care
And then not realise this world is meant to 
Share

Wait a minute. It's wrong
Even the birds still sing their faithful song
And your beauty lies within you
Look in the mirror baby
Look in the mirror baby

We've got to stand up for ourselves
Even if a leader so cold wants to glory himself
We've got to be strong
Even if our reasons seem wrong
We've got to not care
Even if the world that we know may not even 
Be here

Hold it! It's wrong
Even the birds still sing their faithful song
And your beauty lies within you
Look in the mirror baby
Look in the mirror baby

. . .


Words and music Mick Hucknall

You've got that look again
The one I hoped I had when I was a lad
Your face is just beaming
Your smile got me boasting, my pulse roller- coastering
Any way the four winds that blow
They're gonna send me sailing home to you
Or I'll fly with the force of a rainbow
The dream of gold will be waiting in your eyes

You know I'd do most anything you want
Hey I, I try to give you everything you need
I can see that it gets to you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do

Her faith is amazing
The pain that she goes through contained in
The hope for you
Your whole world has changed
The years spent before seem more cloudy
Than blue
In many ways your baby's controlling
When you haven't laid down for days
For the poor no time to be thinking
They're too busy finding ways

You know I'd do most anything you want
Hey I, I try to give you everything you need
I'll see that it gets to you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do

You know I'd do most anything you want
Every day I, try to give you everything you
Need
We'll always be there for you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do

. . .


Words and music Hammond/Hazelwood

If I could make a wish I think I'd pass
Can't think of anything I need
No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound
Nothing to eat no books to read
Making love with you, has left me peaceful warm inside
What more could I ask
There's nothing left to be desired

Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe yes to love you
Just to have you now
All I need is the air that I breathe you're all I want

Peace came upon me and it breathes in me
Don't sleep silent angel don't you sleep

Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you just to have you now
All I need is the air that I breathe yes to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe you're all I want

Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe yes to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe

Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe yes to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe

. . .


Words and music Gregory Isaacs & Sylvester Weise

Tell her try her best just to make it quick
Woman tend to the sick
Because there must be something she can do
This heart is broken in two
Tell her it's a case of emergency
There's a patient by the name of Mickey

Night nurse
Only you alone can quench this here thirst
My night nurse, Oh God
Oh the pain is getting worse

I don't want to see no Doc
I need attendance from my nurse around the clock
Because there's no prescription for me
She's the one, the only remedy

My night nurse
Only you alone can quench this here thirst

My night nurse
Oh the pain is getting worse
I'm hurt my love

I don't want to see no Doc
I need attendance from my nurse around the clock
Because there's no prescription for me
She's the one, the only remedy

Night nurse
Only you alone can quench this here thirst

My night nurse
Oh the pain is getting worse
I'm hurt my love
And I'm sure, no ,no doctor got a cure

My night nurse 
My night nurse
My night nurse

. . .


Words and music Willia Dean Parker/Homer Banks

I know the desert can't hold all the love
that I feel in my heart for you
If I could spread it out across the sea,
I know my love would cork it up
Ain't that a lot of love for one heart to hold

If the bees only knew how sweet you are baby
They would seal up their honeycomb
If the birds could hear how sweet your voice is
They would tighten up the song
Ain't that a lot of love for one heart to hold
Your lips are so sweet, honey you're my every need
You got a smile so rare
A love like yours I just can't compare 
Ain't that a lot of love for one heart to hold
Ain't that a lot of love for one heart to hold

If the cook in the kitchen had a touch as hot as yours
They wouldn't need a fire
I can't think of a word that describes you better
Than the sight of her

. . .

Watching love drifting away
And I feel like I’m someone else
The hurting is rough
Long are the days
And you have hurt me enough

You’re scared to be loved
You know that’s your way
Your youth has made you too tough
You’re hurting for love in so many ways
The truth has hurt you enough

I read a book
And it’s your face
Fake… it’s your face now
Still my love for you was no mistake
Fake… I will always love you
Fake

Hoping for love
Day after day
And it’s always someone else
The hurting is rough
Long are the days
And you have hurt me enough

You’re burning your hair 
On your cigarette, oh baby
Turning your nose up
At the clothes your girlfriend wears
I don’t care

Always, always, always I will love you

. . .


Words and music Cole Porter

Ev'ry time we say goodbye I die a little
Ev'ry time we say goodbye I wonder why a little
Why the Gods above me who must be in the know
Think so little of me they allow you to go

When you're near there's such an air of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere waiting to sing about it
There's no love song finer
But how strange The change from major to minor
Ev'ry time we say goodbye.

When you're near there's such an air of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere waiting to sing about it
There's no love song finer
But how strange The change from major to minor
Ev'ry time we say goodbye.

. . .


Words Mick Hucknall Music Mick Hucknall & Lamont Dozier

This impossible power
A strength that I can't see
There's no way
That I can let you go
Why did I mistake sex
For another sense
Then wanted someone else
To try to tell you no

I think you understand
Oh that you've got it
I try hard but I can't
Oh do without it

I think you understand
That you've got it

This impossible power
Has broken into me
And stolen all the sense
That I had before
Why did I just take 
And never understand
The love you've given me
Could've learnt me more

I think you understand
Oh that you've got it
I try hard but I can't
Oh do without it

I think you understand
That you've got it

What made you think
That I'd be true to you
I needed to 
Prove it to myself
That I could let you go
What made you think that
I'd be a fool for you
You knew that I was lying
There was something
I was hiding

I think you understand
Oh that you've got it
Well I try hard but I can't
Oh do without it

. . .


Words and music Mick Hucknall

Being one of those grains of sand
I get blown all around the world
And what I make of it
Oh I don't know
What's the meaning of it
Oh I don't know

I've been around so many times
That the worlds turning in my mind
What do I think of it
Oh it's so so

What more can you be than the things they say you've been

Say you love me all around the world
Stay and hug me all around the world
Be yours a boy or be mine a girl
Just say you love me
Just say you love me

I never ever realised
It's so easy to make you cry
But did I break a bit
Oh I hope no
Have you forgot about it
Oh I hope so

But you never ever wonder why
In every single pair of eyes
There is a hunger in it
Or it's soul dies

What more can you be than the things they say you've been

Say you love me all around the world
Stay and hug me all around the world
Be yours a boy or be mine a girl

Say you love me all around the world
Stay and hug me all around the world
Be yours a boy or be mine a girl
Just say you love me

Come on now darling, say you love me
Oh yeah, please please say you love me
Come on say you love me

. . .


Words and Music: Hucknall/Woodroffe/Grant/Osuji/Hood/Thomson

Don't know why I still slept on my side of the bed
The emptiness when you were gone kept ringing in my head
Told myself I really had to move along now
Stop regretting all the things I left unsaid, yeah yeah

So I tore up your letters
Took your picture off my wall
I deleted your number, it was too hard not to call
Felt a little better, told myself I'd be fine
Got to live for the good times up ahead, yeah yeah

'Cos everywhere I go
There's a love song that reminds me of you
And even though I knew I had to be strong
I was still not over you
'Cos I still believe and I could see how there's nothing left of you and me
That time is over
'Cos I'm so not over you

All my friends try to tell me better find somebody new
Why waste time being lonely when there's nothing left to lose?
Anything to get you out of my mind
I'm a fool if I thought I could forget
And I could not forget

'Cos everywhere I go
There's a love song that reminds me of you
And even though I knew I had to be strong
I was still not over you
'Cos I still believe and I could see there was nothing left of you and me
That time is over
'Cos I'm so not over you

Now I found a way to keep you there beside me
To where my love won't be denied
I can only hope to keep you there and guide me
There's no more need to hide from all this pain inside

'Cos everywhere I go
There's a love song that reminds me of you
And even though I knew I had to be strong
I was still not over you
'Cos I still believe and I could see how there's nothing left of you and me
That time is over
'Cos I'm so not over you

So not over you
That time is over baby
'Cos I'm so not over you

. . .


Words and music Carolyn Franklin & Sonny Saunders

Gotta find me an angel
To fly away with me
Gotta find me an angel
Who will set me free
My heart is without a home
I don't want to be alone
Gotta find me an angel
In my life 

Too long have I loved
So unattached within
So much that I've known
That I need somebody so
Still I'll just go on
Hoping that I'll find me someone 

Gotta find me an angel in my life 

I know there must be someone, someone for me
I've lived too long without the love of someone
And there's no misery, like the misery I feel in me 

Gotta find me an angel in my life
She'll be there, now don't you worry
Keep looking now just keep looking

. . .


Words and music Mick Hucknall

So now we've got our independence
What are we gonna do with it?
Learning to play different games
Already using different names
Cause now our love bears no resemblance
To what we had before
When our love was good it was all that we saw
When our love was good it blinded us before
This real revolution baby
Where you're not below me anymore

Never never love can never be enough
Never be enough, just ain't good enough
Never never love can never be enough
Never be enough, oh no

So now we've got our independence
What are we gonna do with it?
Building the houses, claiming back the land
Burning the bridges, cleaning up your hands
Cause now our love bears no resemblance
To what we had before

Now our love has something for the future
Now our love will grow the seeds to sow this real revolution
This good revolution baby
Where you're not below me anymore

. . .


Words by Mick Hucknall 
Music by Mick Hucknall, Steve Lewinson & Pete Lewinson

What’s worth nothing else but love
Take a walk down any street now
Every one of us in our own little world 
Looking for a heart with whom to beat now

What’s worth nothing else but love
I’m prepared to take the heat now
What’s worth more than anything else at all
To keep you firmly on your feet now

So fake cool image should be over
‘Cause I long for a feeling of home
Real life, depicted in song
A loving memory
After long, home is a place where I yearn to belong

Where the land meets the sea
She’ll be smiling so sweetly now
I hope that she’ll be here much longer than I will
My heart loves her with every beat now

So fake cool image should be over
‘Cause I long for a feeling of home
Real life, depicted in song
A loving memory
After long, home is a place where I yearn to belong

. . .


Words & Music by Thom Bell & Linda Creed

My love
I'll never find the words, my love
To tell you how I feel, my love
Mere words could not explain
Precious love
You held my life within your hands
Created everything I am
Taught me how to live again

Only you
Cared when I needed a friend
Believed in me through thick and thin
This song is for you
Filled with gratitude and love

God bless you
You make me feel brand new
For God blessed me with you
You make me feel brand new
I sing this song 'cause you
Make me feel brand new

My love
Whenever I was insecure
You built me up and made me sure
You gave my pride back to me
Precious friend
With you I'll always have a friend
You're someone who I can depend
To walk a path that never ends

Without you
My life has no meaning or rhyme
Like notes to a song out of time
How can I repay
You for having faith in me

. . .


Words Mick Hucknall Music Mick Hucknall & Fritz McIntyre

Something got me started
You know that I will love you
Lately since we parted
I truly know that I need you

I'd give it all up for you
(Yes I would)

Totally broken-hearted
Guilty of what I did to you
Lately since we parted
I truly know that I need you

I'd give it all up for you
(Yes I would)

You've got to help me, help me,help me

. . .


Words and music John & William Valentine

Brand new shoes

So I went to the bank
To see what they could do
They said son - looks like bad luck
Got-a hold on you

I can't get an un-em-ploy-ment ex-ten-sion
Money's too tight to mention

But I'm unable to
So I called on my fa-ther fa-ther
Oh my fa-ther
He said

Chorus:
Money's too tight to mention
Oh mo-ney mo-ney mo-ney mon-ey

Oh lord down in the con-gress
They're passing all kinds - of bills
From down cap-it-ol hill - (we've tried them)

Mo-ney mo-ney mo-ney mon-ey
We're talk-in' a-bout mon-ey mon-ey

When the mon-ey's got a hold on you?
Mo-ney's too tight to mention
Oh mon-ey mon-ey mon-ey mon-ey
Mo-ney's too tight to mention
A-mero - mon-ey oh yeah

Words and music Mick Hucknall

Driving down an endless road
Taking friends or moving alone
Pleasure at the fairground on the way

It's always friends that feel so good
Let's make amends like all good men should
Pleasure at the fairground on the way

Walk around, be free and roam
There's always someone leaving alone
Pleasure at the fairground on the way

And I love the thought of coming home to you
Even if I know we can't make it
I love the thought of giving hope to you
Just a little ray of light shining through

Love can bend and breathe alone
Until the end it finds you a home
Don't care what the people may say

It's always friends that feel so good
Let's make amends like all good men should
Pleasure at the fairground on the way

And I love the thought of coming home to you
Even if I know we can't make it
I love the thought of giving hope to you
Just a little ray of light shining through

Words and music Kenny Gamble & Leon Huff

If you don't know me by now
You will never never never know me

All the things
That we've been through
You should understand me
Like I understand you
Now girl I know the difference
Between right and wrong
I ain't gonna do nothing
To break up our happy home
Don't get so excited
When I come home
A little late at night
Cos we only act like children
When we argue fuss and fight

If you don't know me by now
You will never never never know me

We've all got our
Own funny moods
I've got mine,
Woman you've got yours too
Just trust in me like I trust in you
As long as we've been together
It should be so easy to do
Just get yourself together
Or we might as well say goodbye
What good is a love affair
When you can't see eye to eye

If you don't know me by now
You will never
Never never know me

. . .


We've already said...Goodbye
(don't you even try, don't you even try)
Since you gotta go, oh, you'd better Go now
(go now)
Since you gotta go, oh, you'd better Go now
(go now,go now)Go now
Before you see me cry

I just want you to tell me
Just what you intend to do now
Can't you see,darling,darling
I'm still in love with you now Whoa-oh
Telling me that you really don't want me to
To end this way
Can't you see,darling,darling
Can't you see I want you to stay

Since you gotta go, oh, you'd better Go now
(go now, go now)
Since you gotta go, oh, you'd better Go now
(go now, go now) Go now
We've already said so long

I just want you to tell me
Just what you intend to do now
Can't you see,darling,darling
I'm still in love with you now Whoa-oh
Telling me that you really don't want me to
Want me to end this way
Can't you see, darling, darling
Can't you see I want you to stay

Since you gotta go, oh, you'd better Go now

Since you gotta go, oh, you'd better Go now

Since you gotta go, oh, you'd better Go now
(go now go now) Go Now
Before you see me cry
(don't you even try x 9)
We've already said...Goodbye
