Dreamin'

I'm walking 'round got my eyes wide open still I see you everywhere
Day after day, I can say, there's times when I'm really starting to like it
(Going out is all about)
People that remind me
(Straight away somebody say)
It's just hallucinations
(I wonder why a lullaby)
Is playing all around me
I hope it isn't happening again
I'm asking you am I......
Chorus
Dreamin'
Everybody knows
Is something that I do while I'm wide awake and missing you
Dreamin'
I've got to get you on the line
Or I'll be dreaming for the rest of my life

We used to talk
Make love in places
Was it up on #9
I'm thinking damn
I am Not thinking
Maybe its for real this time
(Going out is all about)
People that remind me
(Straight away somebody say)
It's just hallucinations
(I wonder why a lullaby) 
Is playing all around me
I hope it isn't happening again
I'm asking you am I......
Chorus
Dreamin' 
Everybody knows
Is something that I do while I'm wide awake and missing you
Dreamin'
I've got to get you on the line
Or I'll be dreaming for the rest of my life
Bridge
Did we fight 
Or did I turn out the light and drift away?
Or maybe you were just not there
It isn't quite the same
So-I'll be making real love to you
Chorus-end

Strange

Chorus You say it isn't your style to just ride the flow
But if you'd like a little something and you've tried alone
Here's a first class ticket
I know you're into strange

Remember when we were so lost inside each other
But we were not alone
There were also many others
I'm one who likes to believe that people never change
Thinks back to the monument there in France
Or the club in Italy where you did your dirty dancing
I like to think that people never change
Feeling like you made me feel
Do it like you do babe
Playin' dangerous games
Well they tell me not to do it
But the feeling is right
Chorus
You say it isn't your style to just ride the flow
But if you'd like a little something and you've tried alone
Here's a first class ticket
I know you're into strange

I think I still have the photograph
The scars and the other half
Of somebody's place we busted up
Now here's to hopin that you'll never change
And everything that you said to me
At times I was a little bit scared you see
So I wonder why it turns me on
Do it like you do it
Baby just don't ever changeFeeling like you made me feel
Do it like you do babe
Playin' dangerous games
Well they tell me not to do it
But the feeling is right
Chorus
You say it isn't your style to just ride the flow
But if you'd like a little something and you've tried alone
Here's a first class ticket
I know you're into strange
Bridge
And I know if we stop today
We will forever be wishing for one more day of strange
Chorus-end

You and I

Come to me
Let me hold you
So I can feel you breathe
And see you're real
I will do what you want me to
Cuz tonight is yours
And the world is only you and I
And if I try
I know I can build it for you
Paradise tonight 

(chorus) Baby it's just you and I
And we've got the lights down low
Nobody else around
Something so strong inside
It's all for you
'Cuz nobody does like you do girl 

You're my everything
Mountain high, river deep
I would go anywhere
And I would do anything to keep you here with me
Even in my dreams
Nothing comes close to you
Talk is cheap girl, so let me show you
And if I try
Well I know I can build it for you
Paradise tonight 

(chorus) 

And you know nobody does it like you
Something so strong inside
You know it's all for you
All for you
It's all for you 

(chorus) 

Nobody does... 

(chorus) 

Nobody does... 

(chorus) 

Shave

I was worried about it
'Til someone told me not to be
I had reason to doubt it
It was taken from me
You heard me shout it and now everybody seems to be concerned about it
For their white rose crunchies 

Stop sniffing 'round me for your earthbound wishes
It isn't always what it seems to be 

(chorus) 

He was hoping the ties would offer grace
Said a drop dead reason to die was all he gave
Somebody arrived in front of my cave
And he stopped enjoying the lies in time to shave 

It's my feeling about it
That I never should've taken it on
You told me to count it
But they knew I'd trust them
I wanted to ride it
But now everything I had was gone
Was some crazy diet
But she did look lovely


Stop sniffing 'round me for your earthbound wishes
It isn't always what it seems to be

4x(chorus) 

Some Kinda Wonderful

I came apon my crossroads yesterday
I met her on a ship just west of Eyeball Bay
We ate fish and we listened to some old time rock 'n' roll
She said you can call me baby if you let me hold your soul
But it's because she's wonderful the guys they look her way
She's some kinda big shot.. 

(chorus) 

She's some kinda wonderful
She makes a mean steak and she's an eyeful
My baby she's some kinda wonderful to me
She's some kinda wonderful to me
She's some kinda wonderful
Forget it snowflake, she's mine
So ya just say she's wonderful and then be on your way
She's some kinda wonderful you see 

We bought a little house on Highball Way
Great kids, nice home and a brand new Chevrolet
But all my neighbours and friends say the wife is a little bit strange
I know the eyes are freaky and the horns are there to stay
But it's because she's wonderful the guys they look her way
She's some kinda big shot... 

(chorus) 

She's some kinda wonderful
She's some kinda wonderful
She makes a mean steak and she's an eyeful
Freaky hair
My Baby she's some kinda wonderful to me
Yeah
She's some kinda wonderful to me
She's some kinda wonderful
She's some kinda wonderful
Forget it snowflake, she's mine
She's mi-ne
So ya just say she's wonderful and then be on your way
She's some kinda wonderful you see 

She's some kinda wonderful
She's some kinda wonderful
She makes a mean steak and she's an eyeful
See you smilin' sexy smile of hers
My Baby she's some kinda wonderful to me
She's some kinda wonderful to me
She's some kinda wonderful
She's some kinda wonderful
Forget it snowflake, she's mine
She's some kinda wonderful
So ya just say she's wonderful and then be on your way
She's some kinda wonderful you see
Freaky hair, yeah 

I Will Survive

I must admit I was afraid and just a little scared
You were something that I had longed for
Let me get a little closer, I'll go anywhere
Across the ocean, I'll be there
My emotions they will never change
I'm down on my knees for you 
And you can tell me I'm wrong
But baby you feel it too 

Oh it's all right
And I know that you change your mind
Your mind 

(chorus) I will survive
If I exist in your eyes
Feels so alive
Feelin' so alive
And I can't describe
What I'm feelin' inside
'Cuz you are my one, my love, my life
My one, my love, my life 

Seems like forever baby, I've been watching from afar
But now it's over I need to hold you
And even if it's only just for a little while
For me an eternity
Remember baby when you told me you loved me too
And that you'd always be there for me
For me 

Oh it's all right
And I know that you change your mind
Your mind 

(chorus) 

And I can see it baby in your eyes
You know that we were meant to be
You'd never find it even if you tried
A love like mine 

I will survive - You know I will survive
I will survive - And you know that I will 

(chorus)  

Push

Cuz I try... 

Cuz I try... 

Could you be holding out for something more 
Maybe I'm not what you're looking for
But I'll be waiting if you change your mind
And everybody tells me it's just a waste of time
And if I give up hope
Well then I might as well lay down and die
And that's why I'm asking


(chorus) Why (do) you always push me away
(Cuz I..)Cuz I try to do the best I can for you
So I'm asking
Why (do) you always push me away
(Cuz I..)Cuz I try do the best I can for you 

Seems like I've known you forever
But still you don't know I'm alive
Why can't we just be together
Cuz it seems the world is made for you and I
And if I give up hope
Well then I might as well lay down and die
And that's why I'm asking 

(chorus) 

I just called 'cuz I was thinking about you
I just called 'cuz I was thinking about you
You gotta let me know if I'm getting through
And you know that I'm only just a step away from crazy
This is what-you-do-to-me 

(chorus) 

Cuz you're the reason why... 

Why (do) you always push me away
You are the one that makes my world go 'round
(Cuz I..)Cuz I try to do the best I can for you
Baby I just can't take it, no no
So I'm asking
Why (do) you always push me away
(Cuz I..)Cuz I try to do the best I can for you 

Why (do) you always push me away
Why you always push me?
(Cuz I..)Cuz I try to do the best I can for you
Cuz I try to do the best I can
So I'm asking
Why (do) you always push me away
You push me away
(Cuz I..)Cuz I try to do the best I can for you 

(chorus) 

America

Staring out at the old man
Watching trains go by
Well he lives his life on promises
But I'm afraid the promise is all he's got 

You know life's too short to never take
But if you stand aside it'll pass you by 

(chorus) And he's from some place they call America
Yeah, well he's nothing more than a dead man walkin' around
And he's from some place they call America
Yeah America 

And ever since he was a boy
He had dreams
Dreams the size of God
And he was making plans, building buildings
He was gonna have the world in his pocket
The Brooklyn bridge in his hand
Now he looks outside his window and sees his past
Comin' down, on him
For the rest of his life he will feel us kicking him down
Too old to start again my friend 

(chorus) 

Takin' me down
Takin' the old man down
You're takin' me down
Takin' many lives
America 

And he's from some place they call America
Yeah, but he's nothing more than a dead man walkin' around
Cuz I can't seem to find you
And he's from some place they call America
No I can't, no I can't, no I can't find myself in you, so baby
Take it all away
Some-place-they-call-home
And he's from some place they call America
Yeah, America
Takin' it all away  

Powder

Check it out, It's Misa
Bringing it to you - with Sky
Hey yo, heard you got something to say baby
Is that right?
Let's pretend
Yeah, now drop it 

I've been hooked on you for the longest time
Angel of my night and day
You're pushing me away from
Holding on to her, but she's empty now
Will I ever change
You know me far too well
And I got to thinking you know me all too well
And I'll be waiting for you if I survive 

(chorus) You've got me drowning in the flavor of you
Too bad I can never seem to get enough
I've got you inside
You're giving me a rise
And you're taking me over 

Wake up to the sound of my lazy heart
Pumpin' up my last night's game
Say it's gonna be alright
All the ones I've loved
Read between the lines
Building me a cage
And you know me far too well
And I got to thinking you know me all too well
And I'll be waiting for you if I survive 

(chorus) 

You know that it was all about me
And only you were on my mind
Now you rewind and find loving me was a crime
Let's let myself be the center of attention
Loving my flavor and not to mention
You saw those cold harsh nights
you know I made it hot can't get enough
But givin' everything I got
Yes I made you
You know I saved you
People hating on me
But it's okay fool 

Still I'm feeling you
In my mind and in my system
Powder's all I dream about
And I see the sun rise
All alone on this ride
I can't see the light
But I still can't get my fill
Can't get enough - no, no 

2x(chorus) 

One more time
Baby you've got your will
Givin' me a rise
Got you inside 

2x(chorus) 

Love Song

Your brothers they all think I'm crazy
I think it's nothing at all
Today I'm feelin' kinda lazy
So I'll be sleeping it off
Once again,
It's kinda like a love song
Crazy old fashioned love song 

Then she decides that the dogs they belong inside
It's a never ending ride you're taking
I can decide for you hey
It's kinda like a love song 

The party's happening somewhere else babe
Here there is nothing at all
Someday I'll be somebody's love slave
For now I've got me all to myself
It's kinda like a love song
Crazy old fashioned love song 

(chorus) 

We think he's alive but the flies make me wonder why
It's a never ending pile I'm raking
Chester's beside you and he's singing you a love song
And while you're finding your way home
Me I'll be watching me a TV show
A TV show
And if the darkness is all you see
Well then you don't know what you're missing
Don't know what you're missing...
Do you?
Well it's kinda like a love song 

And then she decides that the dogs they belong inside
She tells me (all) night long
It's a never ending ride you're taking
It's a never ending ride you're taking
I can decide for you hey
It's kinda like a love song
And I found out somebody was laughing
We think he's alive but the flies make me wonder why
wonder why...
It's a never ending pile I'm raking
Chester's beside you and he's singing you a love song
Singing you a love song 

Your brothers they all think I'm crazy 

All I Want

There was a time not too long ago
When you and I were still believing
That we could make it on our own
But I was blind to our situation
I needed you more
More than I ever dreamed of
Thinking about you
Through all my lonely nights without you
In these arms, I thee want 

All I want
All I ask of you
All I need
Is for you to be holding me forever
You're my superstar
And this love I will defend
'Til the day that we're together
I'll be missing you 

I should have known
That it was so hard to do
How could I have been away so long
So long without you
With or without anybody else
There's only you
Thinking about you
Through all my lonely nights without you
In these arms, I thee want 

(chorus) 

I'm wondering if you're ever coming back
Take your time to show me you care
Too many lovers fall along the way
And I don't want to be alone Alone 

All I want
All I want
All I ask of you
All I need
Is for you to be holding me forever
You're my superstar
And this love I will defend
I will
'Til the day that we're together
I'll be missing you 

'Til the day that we're together
I'll be missing you 

Last Time I Saw You

I was following you downtown baby, that's when you dropped your keys
Must've been around 5 o'Clock when I showed up at your door
Somebody told me it was alright, you were expecting me over
I had roses
I had roses
I brought you roses
And you know 

(chorus) I was thinking about the last time I saw you
Your magic and your strange positions
And I remember baby last time I saw you
I'm yet to feel my last vibration 

High noon and it's a showdown, baby I've dropped you to your knees
Super sticky on the southbound
Do they know it's make-believe?
Somebody told me it was alright you were inside shining your chains
I had roses
I had roses
I brought you roses
And you know 

(chorus) 

We could say that you were lonely for awhile
Make it up yeah, as we go along
It's been an hour
It's been an hour now it's got to change
If it's okay with you
It's always okay with you
But only if it's okay with you 

I was thinking about the last time I saw you
I was thinking - about the last time
Your magic and your strange positions
And I remember baby last time I saw you
I remember
I'm yet to feel my last vibration
Cuz there's never been a change 

I was thinking about the last time I saw you
Thinking about the last time
Your magic and your strange positions
Thinking 
And I remember baby last time I saw you
I saw you
I'm yet to feel my last vibration 

I brought you roses
