Grammy award: best rock vocal performance, female (85)
A prisoner of your love
Entangled in your web
Hot whispers in the night
Im captured by your spell
Oh yes Im touched by this show of emotion
Should I be fractured by your lack of devotion
Should i, should i?
You better be good to me
Thats how its gotta be now
Cause I dont have no use
For what you losely call the truth
You better be good to me
I think its also right
That we dont need to fight
We stand face to face
And you present your case
And I know you keep telling me that you love me
And I really do wanna believe
But did you think Id just accept you in blind faith
Oh sure babe, anything to please you
You better be good to me
Thats how its gotta be now
Cause I dont have the time
For your over loaded lines
You better be good to me
And I really dont see why its so hard to be good to me
And I dont understand whats your plan that you cant be good to me
What I cant feel I surely cannot see, why cant you be good to me
And if its not real I do not wish to see, why cant you be good to me

Good From Far, Far From Good
(myles goodwyn)
Published by mfg sing sing music/socan - ascap
I dont go thinkin its right, for somebody else
I know how it is, I can see for myself, yeah
Look left, right, and make up your mind
If anyone tells you different, well theyre wastin your time
Yet its alright
Hey baby, whats a man to do
He says nothin, but he aint no fool
Hes just lookin, but its understood
Looks good from far, but its far from good
Good from far, far from good
Dont bring it around my door
Good from far, far from good
I dont care no more
She feels out of place, but it isnt a dream
She looks round and she knows that its all too extreme, yeah
And meanwhile, a party is beginnin to stall
And now shes ready to turn, and get away from it all
It dont feel right
Hey baby, whats a girl to do
You feel hurt, cause you play by the rules
Your friends tell you youre misunderstood
Looks good from far, but its far from good
Good from far, far from good
Dont bring it around my door
Good from far, far from good
I dont care no more
Good from far, far from good
You must accept that all, you turn and walk away
You live your own life, you get stronger every day
Good from far, far from good
Dont bring it around my door
Good from far, far from good
I dont care no more
Good from far, far from good
Baby, Im feelin alright
Good from far, far from good
No more no more no more no more
Good from far, far from good
Dont bring it around my door
Good from far, far from good
I dont care no more

Be Good To You
[verse 1:]
Ill never hurt you - oh!
And you will never shed a tear for me
I know youre tired of
Being in and out of love with nothing to show,
And nowhere to go, but
Back to the same one only with a different face
But now you are in a different place
And if my words dont comfort you
Time will surely prove,
That Ill do just what I say
[hook:]
Ill only be good to you
(only be good to you)
Be like I should to you
(be like I should to you)
Be everything (everything) to you bring you nothing but the good stuff
Ill give you good love
Ill only be good to you
(Ill only be good to you)
Be like I should to you
(be like I should...be like I should)
Be everything to you, said Ill be good to you, only be good to you
(good to you - oh)
[verse 2:]
You say its too good to be - too good
And I agree that the way it seems
Except for my instinct telling me its something else
Its not a rebound or playground
But something thats real
Ive got so much to give you
So dont you dare hesitate to receive it
If my words dont comfort you
Time will surely prove,
That Ill do what I say and more
[hook]
[bridge:]
Ill always be there when you fall
Never doubt my heart at all
Its you that Ive chosen, you are my focus
And this aint no phony disguise
You can see if you look down deep
Theyll be nothing but good love
Good love coming from me - oh
[hook]

Dont Mess Up This Good Thing
Dont mess up this good thing

Well, I think youve had a long time
To get your act together
Its your move and I hope you do the right thing
You know I never wanna lose you
But you must learn to play the game by the rules
Show me how much my love means to you
Dont mess up this good thing
Dont mess up this good thing (what we have together)
Dont mess up, no baby
Well, forever may be
More time than anyone can offer
But all my time is spent in your corner
Heaven knows how much I love you
But if you think I can watch you play on me and understand it
Baby, youre taking far too much for granted
Dont mess up this good thing

Got to find the right words to make you see
That you and I were meant to be
Dont mess up this good thing
Dont mess it up
Dont mess up this good thing
Well, forever may be
More time than anyone can offer
But all my time is spent in your corner
Heaven knows how much I love you
But if you think I can watch you play on me and understand it
Baby, youre taking far too much for granted
Dont mess up this good thing
Dont mess up this good thing (what we have together)
Dont mess up this good thing

Nothing So Good
Aint nothin so good
As a sunday morning
When the day is dawnin? kinda makes you feel good
There aint nothing so fine
As a lazy weekend
Just hangin out with your best friend
There aint nothing so good
There aint nothing so good as a good time
Theres nothing so right as the right time
I said please ? dont count on me
Said please ? dont count on me
Theres nothing so good as a good time
Maybe there should
There aint nothing so good
Aint nothin so strong
As the strength of a good love
I cant get enough
Cant ever get too much love
There aint nothing so right
As the sound of your voice
Im gonna make it my choice
And get into something good
There aint nothing so good as a good time
There aint nothing so right as the right time
I said please ? dont count on me
Said please ? dont you count on me
Theres nothing so good as a good time
Maybe there should
There aint nothing so good
Sail away
Cant drift too far
Gotta get away
Be where you are
Sail away, sail away
Sail on far
Gotta find a way
Into your heart
Aint nothin so good
As a sunday morning
When the day is dawning
Kinda makes you feel good
There aint nothing so fine
As a lazy weekend
Just hangin out with your best friend
There aint nothing so good
There aint nothing so good as a good time
Aint nothing so right as the right time
I said please ? dont count on me
Said please ? dont count on me
Theres nothing so good as a good time

There aint nothing so good

Theres a pale moon in the sky
The kind you make your wishes on
Like the light in your eyes
The one I built my dreams upon
Its not there any longer
Something happened somewhere
And we both know why
But me, Im getting stronger
We must stop pretending
I cant live this life
I dont care whos wrong or right
I dont realy wanna fight no more (too much talking babe)
Lets sleep on it tonight
I dont really wanna fight no more (this is time for letting go)
I hear a whisper in the air
It simply doesnt bother me
Cant you see that I dont care
Or are you you looking right through me
Seems to me that lately
You look at me the wrong way and I start to cry
Could it be that maybe
This crazy situation is the reason why
I dont care whos wrong or right
I dont reaaly wanna fight no more (too much talking babe)
Lets sleep on it tonight
I dont really wanna fight no more (tired of all these games)
But baby dont you know
That I dont wanna hurt no more (its time, Im walking babe)
Dont care now whos to blame
I dont really wanna fight no more (this is time for letting go)
Hanging on to the past
It only stands in our way
We had to grow for our love to last
But we just grew apart
No, I dont wanna hurt no more
But baby dont you know
No I dont wanna hurt no more (too much talking babe)
Dont care now whos to blame
I dont really wanna fight no more (tired of all these games)
I dont care whos wrong or right
I dont really wanna fight no more (its time, Im walking babe)
So lets sleep on it tonight
I dont really wanna fight no more (this is time for letting go)

Dont Ya Say It
Things you said to me
Sentimentally
Are always on my mind.
Seems you haunted me
But you set me free
Long before you gave me time to escape.
The next time
Ill be on my way
cause its time, its true
Im turning my back on you.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you need me
You dont need me,
Dont even try.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you want me,
You dont mean it,
Dont say good-bye.
You threw love at me
Indispensably,
But you never could give it away.
And it seems to me
That youd never be,
Thats why Ill never stay with you.
You cant hold me down
cause its my life too,
So this time its true,
Im turning my back on you
.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you want me,
You dont mean it,
Dont even try.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you need me,
You dont mean it,
Dont say good-bye.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you need me,
You dont need me,
Dont even try.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you want me,
You dont mean it,
Dont say good-bye.

Dont Fight It
Live long enough youre bound to find
Moonshinell make a man go blind
Never can tell what the brew will do
But theres times youll wind up feelin so fine
Some women seem to have a knack
Theyll turn you on and leave you flat
Never can tell whos playin for keeps
So tell me now whats holding you back
I know your heart can take it
Dont fight it
Dont fight it
Dont fight it
Itll do your heart so good
Dont fight it
Dont fight it
Dont fight it
Itll only do you good
Dont fight itll do your heart so good
Do what mama do
Do what daddy do
When you gonna make up your mind
You can run but love will find you
Ready or not here it comes
Some people when they hear a groove
Shake their heads cause they just cant approve
Well I turn up the music till its shakin the sky
Is everybody ready to move
Theres times you wanna shake yourself
Theres nights you wanna yell for help
You can fly when youre standing still
N theres nothing wrong with raising some hell
Tonight were gonna raise it
Dont fight it
Dont fight it
Dont fight it
Dont fight it
Dont fight it
Dont fight it
Dont fight itll do your heart so good
Dont fight it
Dont fight it
Dont fight it

I Can Help
(words & music by billy swan)
If youve got a problem, I dont care what it is
If you need a hand, I can assure you this
I can help, Ive got two strong arms, I can help
It would sure do me good to do you good,
Let me help
Its a fact that people get lonely, aint nothing new
But a woman like you baby, should never have the blues
Let me help, Ive got two for me, let me help
It would sure do me good to do you good
Let me help
When I go to sleep at night, youre always a part of my dream
Holding me tight and telling me everything I want to hear
Dont forget me baby, all you gotta do is call
You know how I feel about you, if I can do anything at all
Let me help
If your child needs a daddy, I can help
It would sure do me good to do you good,
Let me help

On The Line
No sense pretending its over
Hard times just dont go away
You gotta take that chip off your shoulder
Its time you open up
Have some faith
Nothing good ever comes easy
All good things come in due time
Yes it does
You gotta have something to believe in
Im telling you to open mind
Chorus:
Gotta put your heart on the line
If you wanna make it right
Youve got to reach out and try
Gotta put your heart on the line
If you wanna make it right
Gotta put it all on the line
You see yourself in the mirror
And you dont like what you see
And things arent getting much clearer
Dont you think its time you go for a change
Dont waste your time on the past, no, no
Its time you look to the future
Its all right there if you ask
This time if you try much harder
Youll be the best that cou can be
(chorus)
Bridge:
If you wanna make it right
If you wanna do it now
You gotta learn to try
You can make it right somehow
Let love come free
And thats just so easy now
You gotta go for what you want
You gotta do what you got to do

Were Into Something Good
I never thought it could be like this
Give me another kiss if you dont mind, one more time
To flatter you with many stories
Used cliches that would be boring
Would just waste time, precious time
I dont have to say a thing
Its written on my face
Any doubt that you still have
Let our love erase
Chorus
Were into something good and you know it
Were into something good dont be afraid to show it
Were into something good, baby
I dont see how you conceal it
Theres no way that you cant feel it,when we do what we do
Now you cant get this close to me
Send all these vibrations through me
And not know what to do
So wipe the tears away
Dont be afraid of me
Love between us should come
Oh so free and easy

She said I dont know if Ive ever been good enough
Im a little bit rusty, and I think my head is caving in
And I dont know if Ive ever really been loved
By the hand thats touched me, well I feel like something gonna give
And Im a little bit angry, well
This aint over, no not here, not while I still need you
Around
You dont owe me, we might change
Yeah we just might feel good

I wanna push you around, I will, I will
I wanna push you down, I will, I will
I wanna take you for granted(2x)

Like Im a little untrusting when I think that the truth is
Gonna hurt ya
And I dont why you couldnt just stay with me
You couldnt stand to be near me
When my face dont seem to want to shine cuz its a little bit dirty well
Dont just stand there, say nice things to me
Ive been cheated Ive been wronged, and you
You dont know me, I cant change
