Limelight

I can see the glow of a distant sun I can feel it inside Maybe this day could be the one I can hear the roar of a distant crowd They are waiting for me Calling my name Shouting out loud Holding on isn't always easy I ain't gonna change my mind Limelight you were all I ever wanted Since it all began Limelight shining on me Telling the world who I am Limelight don't let me slip right through your fingers There's a long way to fall After the years of waiting I'm gonna show them all I can see the world in a different light Now it's easy to say Where I went wrong What I did right I can hear the beat of a different drum Take it all in my stride Hold my head high Second to none Holding on wasn't always easy Nothing can change my mind Limelight you were all I ever wanted since it all began Limelight shining on me telling the world who I am Limelight don't let it slip right through your fingers There's a long way to fall After all the years of waiting, I'...

 (Meade) Time is on my side, yes it is Time is on my side, yes it is Now you always say That you want to be free But you'll come running back (said you would baby) You'll come running back (I said so many times before) You'll come running back to me Oh, time is on my side, yes it is Time is on my side, yes it is You're searching for good times But just wait and see You'll come running back (I won't have to worry no more) You'll come running back (spend the rest of my life with you, baby) You'll come running back to me Go ahead, go ahead and light up the town And baby, do everything your heart desires Remember, I'll always be around And I know, I know Like I told you so many times before You're gonna come back, baby 'Cause I know You're gonna come back knocking Yeah, knocking right on my door Yes, yes!

Killing Me Softly

Strumming my pain with his fingers, Singing my life with his words, Killing me softly with his song, killing me softly, With his song telling my whole life With his words, Killing me softly, With his song Yo,put cha hands together for L boogie yah yaey yaey L boogie up in here (u know how we do) One time, One time,(one time) hey yo L you know you got the lyrics I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style, And so I came to see him and listen for a while. And there he was this young bwoy, stranger to my eyes, Strumming my pain with his fingers, (One time,one time) Singing my life with his words, (Two times. two times) Killing me softly with this song, Killing me softly, With his song, telling my whole life, With his words, Killing me softly with his song. I felt all flushed with fever, Embarrassed by the crowd, I felt he found my letters then read each one out loud. I prayed that he would finish, But he just kept right on. Strumming my pain with ...

I'd Be Surprisingly Good for You

[Eva:] Colonel Peron [Peron:] Eva Duarte [Eva and Peron:] I've heard so much about you [Eva and Peron:] I'm amazed, for I'm only an actress (a soldier) Nothing to shout about (One of the thousands) Only a girl on the air (Defending the country he loves) [Eva:] But when you act, the things you do affect us all [Peron:] But when you act, you take us away from the squalor of the real world Are you here on your own? [Eva:] Yes, oh yes [Peron:] So am I, what a fortunate coincidence Maybe you're my reward for my efforts here tonight [Eva:] It seems crazy but you must believe There's nothing calculated, nothing planned Please forgive me if I seem naive I would never want to force your hand But please understand, I'd be good for you I don't always rush in like this Twenty seconds after saying hello Telling strangers I'm too good to miss If I'm wrong I hope you'll tell me so But you really should know, I'd be good for you I'd be surprisingly good ...

Last Night Of The World

In a place that won't let us feel In a life where nothing seems real I have found you I have found you In a world that's moving too fast In a world where nothing can last I will hold you I will hold you Our lives will change when tomorrow comes Tonight our hearts drown the distant drums And we have music all right Tearing the night A song Played on a solo saxophone A crazy sound, a lonely sound A cry that tells us love goes on and on Played on a solo saxophone It's telling me To hold you tight And dance like it's the last night of the world On the other side of the earth There's a place where life still has worth I will take you I'll go with you You won't believe all the things you'll see I know 'cause you'll see them all with me If we're together that's when We'll hear it again A song Played on a solo saxophone A crazy sound, a lonely sound A cry that tells us love goes on and on Played on a solo saxophone It's telling me To hold...

Lips Like Sugar

Image
She floats like a swan Grace on the water Lips like sugar Lips like sugar Just when you think you've caught her She glides across the water She calls for you tonight To share this moonlight She'll flow down your river And ask him and she'll give you Lips like sugar Sugar kisses Lips like sugar Sugar kisses She knows what she knows I know what she's thinking Sugar kisses Sugar kisses Just when you think she's yours She's flown to other shores To laugh at how you break To melt into this lake She'll flow down your river And ask him and she'll give you Lips like sugar Sugar kisses Lips like sugar Sugar kisses She'll be my mirror Reflect what I am A loser and a winner The King of Siam And my Siamese twin She knows what I'm thinking She'll flow down your river And ask him and she'll give you Lips like sugar Sugar kisses Lips like sugar Sugar kisses

You Do Something To Me

You do something to me, something deep inside I'm hanging on the wire for a love I'll never find You do something wonderful then chase it all away Mixing my emotions that throws me back again Hanging on the wire, I'm waiting for the change I'm dancing through the fire, just to catch a flame an' feel real again You do something to me somewhere deep inside I'm hoping to get close to a peace I cannot find Dancing through the fire just to catch a flame Just to get close to, just close enough To tell you that..... You do something to me something deep inside.
