Heart In Armor
One more day
My heart's in armor
Though I meant to let you in
In an effort not to harm it
I have missed my chance again
I was singing when I freed you
But my pride was just a veil
I pretended not to need you
Now my heart tells a different tale
And everyhour that goes by
The harder I become
Because I let that well run dry
Because I left you unanswered
Then like a fool I kept my secret
When it made no sense to try
Now I can no longer keep it
For it's late and the moon is high
One more day my heart's in armor
Though I did not see it then
I would finish what you started
If I had that chance again

Hearts In Armor

One more day
My hearts in armor
Though I meant to let you in
In an effort not to harm it
I have missed my chance again
I was singing when I freed you
But my pride was just a veil
I pretended not to need you
Now my heart tells a different tale
And every hour that goes by
The harder I become
Because I let that well run dry
Because I left you unanswered
Then like a fool I kept my secret
When it made no sense to try
Now I can no longer keep it
For its late and the moon is high
And every hour that goes by
The harder I become
Because I let that well run dry
Because I left you unanswered
One more day my hearts in armor
Though I did not see it then
I would finish what you started
If I had that chance again
I would finish what you started
If I had that chance again

I Am Your Don Quixote
I am your Don Quixote
But there is no armor for this heart
No protection from your eyes
There is no armor for this heart
Vulnerable I battle with your smile
There is no armor for this heart
From your beauty I cannot hide
There is no armor for this heart
Exposed I am tangled in only lies
There is no armor for this heart
Empty as every windmill that I find
There is no armor for this heart
I lay awake with open eyes

Don't Break My Heart
There was you, there was me
Everything was cool far as I could see
Thought our love was strong
But something deep inside tells me that I was wrong
Could it be a memory from your past
Could it be these things werent meant to last
If theres somewhere else youd rather be
Why dont you cut these ties and set me free
Told you once - told you twice
You should never play with love and thats good advice
Wanna know how you feel
Getta tell me something baby - whats the deal
Oh no! Dont break my heart
Oh no! Finish what you start
Oh no! Dont break my heart
Oh no! Finish what you start
Left me once - took you back
Said Id give you one more chance and thats a fact
Wanna know what to do
Really need to find out cause Im feeling blue
Could it be the end of our romance
Could it be this love is left to chance
Maybe you dont feel the same inside
Go on walk out the door and leave my pride
Just cant stop thinking bout things I used to need that I can do without
Feel confused - by myself
Is it really over is our love back on the shelf

Take A Chance
Words and music by bob seger
You take a chance on an airplane
You take a chance when you cross the street
You take a chance when you love somebody
When youre standing near the heat
You take a chance when youre honest
You take a chance when you tell lies
You take a chance when you trust somebody
When you look em in the eyes
Take a chance on me
Take a chance on me
Im exactly what you see honey
Take a chance on me
You take a chance when youre indecisive
You take a chance when youre aloof
You take a chance when you judge somebody
When youve really got no proof
You take a chance when you refuse to hear
You take a chance when youre unkind
You take a chance when you refuse to grow up baby
You end up left behind
Take a chance on me
Take a chance on me
Im exactly what you see honey
Take a chance on me
You take a chance when youre ruthless
You take a chance when youre cruel
You take a chance when you make a vow babe
To be nobodys fool
You take a chance when youre distant
You take a chance when you live inside
You take a chance when someone loves you
And you leave them with no pride
Take a chance on me
Take a chance on me
Im exactly what you see honey
Take a chance on me
Oh take a chance on me
Take a chance on me
Im exactly what you see honey
Take a chance on me

The Chance I Take
(tom littlefield/rick rowell)
Everyone says youll break my heart
Put out the fire before it starts
Youll string me along and then cut me loose
But I dont care what they say about you
My hearts got a history
Of letting love get the best of me
cause I cant hide the way I feel
When Im fallin in love its always head over heels
Its the chance I take
Its the chance I take
I bet it on this heart of mine
I might even get lucky this time
Let the chips fall where they may
Im a fool for love its the chance I take
Just when I say never again
Im throwin caution to the wind
Nothing ventured nothing gained
The only way to win is to stay in the game
Ive been on the looking end
But I still wanna love again
I sweep up the pieces when my heart breaks
Put it back together its the chance I take
Im a fool for love its the chance I take
Im a fool for love its the chance I take

Chorus:
You got my body shaking
Sends a shiver to my soul
I didnt get no warning
You got me shaking to the bone
I got my secret weapon
Im gonna get you all alone, yeah, yeah
So let your body lose control
I was the boy walking tough, king of the street
Believed in making my own destiny, yeah
Victim of love, I made a promise that Id never be
Another one of loves fatalities
Rule number one was running wild and always running free
Didnt need no luck, my guardian angel looking over me
You passed me by, I got the vibe, left me in disbelief
Arrow to my heart at hurricanes velocity
You pierced my emotional armor
Bolt of lightning couldnt hit me harder
Repeat chorus
Everybody say I aim too high, out of my league
I gotta step into reality, yeah
Different sides, different styles, certain tragedy
I got you in my sights, so please believe its harmony
You pierced my emotional armor
Bolt of lightning couldnt hit me harder
Repeat chorus
Rap:
This is simple as one, two, three
Weve been drawn together by a love-power energy
I wanna be your lover
I wanna be your friend
I wanna be your lifetime, not just your weekend
Check, check it out, check it out, check it, check it out
I wanna be home boy, aint no doubt
I wanna be your first choice, never let you down
Love, peace, Im out of here, brothers
You pierced my emotional armor
Bolt of lightning couldnt hit me harder
Repeat chorus to fade

Mouth
You gave me this
made me give
your silver grin
still sticking it in
you have soul machine
soul machine
the longest kiss
peeling furniture days
drift madly to you
pollute my heart drain
you have broken at me
broken me
all your mental armor drags me down
nothing hurts like your mouth
your loaded smiles
pretty just desserts
wish it all for you
so much it never hurts
you have soul machine
stone at me
all your mental armor drags me down
we can't breathe when you come around
all your mental armor drags me down
nothing hurts like your mouth mouth
mouth
your mouth mouth mouth
your mouth mouth mouth
we've been missing long before
never found our way home
we've been missing long before
where we'll find our way
you gave me this
made me give
you have soul machine
broken free
all your mental armor drags me down
we can't breathe when you come around
all your mental armor drags me down
nothing hurts like your mouth mouth

your mouth mouth mouth
your mouth mouth mouth
all your mental armor
all your mental armor

Do You Feel Feelings Too
I meet you... I met you
Then suddenly, erratically, irrationally, I have feelings for you
Sadly I'm not even sure the person who
You are, and you don['t know me.. so then how could you possibly have feelings for me
I'm tying to understand if just maybe there's a chance
If we have a chance
Although I'm enamored with you, how could you be interested in me?
I no longer hate myself, but in our only time together
I found myself expressing myself, expressing the darkness which lies deep within
I spout this depression, pessimism, and cynicism often, but it's truthful
That is how I felt, that is how I feel, I do not want to hide from you
But I also think what you do see of me is that part
I'd like to think I am more
I am sure I am more
I wish I could show you that
Is it too late?
Is the first impression enough to turn this love into a crush
Just another crushing crush
Is it too late, because it was never too early, because you never had feelings for me
How is it getting to know me and my darkness will 'woo' you, it is something
I think you would find intensely disturbing, but it is me
I've given up hiding nowhere
But surely I cannot be here with you
Not if I'm not wanted
Not now
Not sooner
Not later
I have to ask and wonder
ponder and think, do you feel feelings too?
Is it possible you do, are others comparably irrational in this instant love
Or has my disillusion grown to veil all reason and logic
I do believe the veil is strong
I do believe this veil is self-imposed
I do believe I am alone behind this veil
And so I believe all my thoughts, strivings, and wistful thinkings will fail
I shall stay nowhere, behind my curtain
With my heart stain
I will not forget you, but you will forget me. Maybe that's best
Maybe that's what's next
Maybe that's what we both need... or maybe just you
Here let me help you it's even harder to see when you can't hear

Finish What You Started
(m. malamet/a. roboff/a. lang/d. lambert)

These walls wont let me get through
But if I know you, you will
Chorus:
Finish what you started
Youll come back to me
I know its gonna feel, baby
Like it used to be
So finish what you started
I will wait for you
I know where I stand
A fool for your love
Oh, thats what I am
Im losin control
Youre down too deep in my soul
To let you go, wont ya
(repeat chorus)
Im standing here shakin
Wonderin if you let me in
Oh, dont watch my heart breakin
Knowing what we could have been
What more can I do?
Your heart just wont let me through
But if I know you (finish what you started)
And I think I know you, baby (finish what you started)
And you can really show me if
You finish what you started
Youll come back to me
I know its gonna feel, baby
Like it used to be
So finish what you started

Each To His Own
Nothing can be permanent
Nothing set in stone
Never try to fool yourself
That you are not alone
Know your place dont chance your arm
Your secrets are all known
Never cross the great divide
Each to his own
Dont misunderstand me, dont be hurt, dont take offence
But what I am about to tell you makes a lot of sense
Ive been more than happy with you, loved you as you are
But being happy only takes a restless heart so far
Be thankful for the past but know those times wont come again
I found you quite diverting, even tender now and then
Remember I will always be the first to sing your praise
But I must close the book on our adolescent days
Nothing can be permanent
Nothing set in stone
Never try to fool yourself
That you are not alone
Know your place dont chance your arm
Your secrets are all known
Never cross the great divide
Each to his own
Did you really think wed never drift apart?
That wed decay together in some endless heart to heart
Did you never realise that we are not the same?
We are made what we are made - you are not to blame
Nothing can be permanent
Nothing set in stone
Never try to fool yourself
That you are not alone
Know your place dont chance your arm
Your secrets are all known
Never cross the great divide
Each to his own

One More Chance
(michael masser/gerry goffin)
Feel like a fool
Not realizing all the value you had
I took a happy ending and made it sad
The day I walked away and left you alone
With hardly an explanation
You stood on your own
And handled the situation
And showed to me
How understanding you could be
Now Im alone
Looking back at all the years that we shared
Thinking of the pain you should have been spared
Afraid to ask forgiveness
But where can I go
Theres no one else to turn to
I still have my pride
But now its time to learn to cast it aside
And come to you with honesty
Give me just one more chance
Such a simple thing Im asking for
Just one more chance
It would be a shame to close the door to
One more chance
Isnt that what we pray each night for?
One more chance
Isnt that what were fighting for?
Why throw away a love that needs one more chance
Now Im afraid that after all Ive said
Youll still turn me down and youll smile
And say Ill see you around
But remember that you still have a choice
And I hope and pray youll make it
Youll think of my heart
And you wont wanna break it
And Ill prove to you the kind of lady I can be
Give me just one more chance
Such a simple thing Im asking for
Just one more chance
It would be a shame to close the door to
One more chance
Isnt that what we pray each night for?
One more chance
Isnt that what were fighting for?
One more chance
Dont you know that we belong together
One more chance
Now I really need you more than ever
One more chance
You and I can really make it baby
One more chance
All you have do is say the words to
One more chance
One more
One more chance
One more chance

Never Again
Ill miss your naked body
Ill miss your mind
Human beings learn to miss
The things they leave behind
Another romance broken
Its time to go
Too late to contradict
What we already know
Closed my eyes
To the truth
And the lies
Never again
Wont ask why
Dont reply
Ill just say
Never again
Time tells
Your heart compels
Never again
Never take a chance
Again
Time tells
Your heart compels
Never again
Never break a heart again
Never again never again
But until then
Never again never again
Never again
Never again never again
Never again never again
I know I couldnt keep you
I know the score
I know Im surplus
To the life youre looking for
though nothing lasts forever
Still hope remains
We never go back to
The way we were before
From now on
To the end
Wont pretend
Say it again
Wont commit
Wont submit
til I know
Never again
Woman
Runaway woman,
Never again
Woman
Oh my woman,
Woman
Runaway woman,
Never again
Woman
Oh my woman,
Never again
Never break a heart again
Time tells
Woman
Your heart compels
Runaway woman,
Never again
Woman
Oh my woman,
Never take a chance
Again
Time tells
Woman
Your heart compels
Runaway woman,
Never again
Woman
Oh my woman,
Never break a heart again
Never again never again
But until then
Never again never again
Never again
Never again
Never again never again
Never again never again

Straight Through The Heart
You came on like an angel
I didnt see the evil in your eyes
I could see but I was blinded
Oh, believed your lies
You hit we with your promises
You shot me, I fell to the ground
Your promise of tomorrow
When I looked, you were
Nowhere to be found
You set me up right from the start
Stripped me of my dignity
You got me straight
Through the heart
I never did stand a chance
You got me straight
Through the heart
You cut me and left me for dead
You promised me a heaven
Turned out to be one hell all the time
The truth that youre pretending
Was just a chorus of lies
You set me up right from the start
Strip me of my dignity
And got me straight
Through the heart
I never did stand a chance
Got me straight through the heart
You cut me and left me for dead
You cut me and left me for dead
You came on like an angel
Just like an angel
You set me up
You got me straight
Through the heart
I never did stand a chance
Got me straight through the heart
You cut me, you left me
Straight through the heart
You never gave me a chance
Got me straight throught the heart
Im bleeding, youre leaving
Got me straight through the heart

Youre The Only One
I found out the hard way
And Im never gonna break your heart
I know, too late
And I dont want to break your heart
Guess I had to go away just to find
What I left behind
Youre the only one
Youre the only one
Take me back
To where we started from
And lets make it now
Like we made it then
This ol heart aint gonna break your heart again
Nights I lay in bed
And your covers wouldnt warm my feet
And morning found me
Bitter or a bit too sweet
Oh baby, I had to go away
Just to run back and say
Youre the only one
Youre the only one
Take me back
To where we started from
Can we make it now
Like we made it then
This ol heart aint gonna break your heart again
Youre the only one darlin
Theyll never be anyone else but you
I love you so much
You are my love, youve become my life
And I never meant to break your heart
But, sometimes, you just got to go away
To find what you left behind
Youre the only one
Youre the only one
Take me back
To where we started from
Can we make it now
Like we make it then
This ol heart aint gonna break your heart again
Youre the only one
Youre the only one
Youre the only one
The only one
So take me back
To where we started from
Youre the only one
The only one
Youre the only one
You re the only one
The only one
Take me back
To where we started from

Youre the only one

Youre the only one
Youre the only one

Mountain O'Things
I lose my head
From time to time
I make a fool of myself
In matters of the heart
We should have been holding each other
Instead we talked
I make a fool of myself
In matters of the heart
But I asked before
Your reply was kind and polite
One wants more
When one's denied
I make a fool of myself
In matters of the heart
I won't call it love
But it feels good to have passion in my life
If there's a battle
I hope my head always defers to my heart
In matters of the heart
I guess I'm crazy to think
I can give you what you don't want
I make a fool of myself
In matters of the heart
I've made myself sick
I can't think of anything else
I can't sleep at night
I make a fool of myself
In matters of the heart
I wish that I had the power
To make these feelings stop
I lose all self control
In matters of the heart
I can't believe
It's so hard to find someone
To give affection to
And from whom you can receive
I guess it's just the draw of the cards
In matters of the heart
You caught me off guard
Somehow you reached me
Where I thought I had nothing left inside
I've learned a lesson I've been edified
In matters of the heart
I've spent my nights
Where the sleeping dogs lie
Not by your side
It feels so lonely
Once again I've left too much to chance
In matters of the heart
Here I sit
I'm feeling sorry for myself
It's quite a sight
But I have you to thank
For reminding me
We're all alone in this world
And in matters of the heart
I'm already missing you
Although we won't say good-byes
Until tomorrow afternoon
Maybe when and if I

Secret Heart
Thanks to [email protected] for these lyrics.
Secret heart what are you made of?
What are you so afraid of?
Could it be three simple words
Or the fear of being overheard
What's wrong?
Let her in on your secret heart
Secret heart, why so mysterious?
Why so secret, why so serious?
Maybe you're just acting tough
Maybe you're just not bad enough
What's wrong?
Let her in on your secret heart
(Bridge) 2x
This very secret you're trying to conceal
Is the very same one you're dying to reveal
Go tell her how you feel
Secret heart come out and share it
This loneliness, few can bear it
Could it have something to do with
Admitting that you just can't
Go through it alone?
Let her in on your secret heart
Let her in on your secret heart

Too Late
I see you there across the room
I never thought I’d see you too soon.
Remember when I wanted you but,
You were too cool and just kept shut.
Why are you walking over to me?
Why is it now that you see
That I’m alive and look a bit different
Instead before when your heart was absent.
You get closer and it’s like a wave
I can’t breathe, I sweat, it’s you I crave
Why do you still get me, its been years
I remember the times and all those tears.
I remember how I wanted you
You said one day you’d want me too
You lead me on and broke my heart
I should have known it from the start.
Why now do you appear?
When I am happy without you here
You ask me for one last chance,
A night filled with endless romance.
You can’t do this, you’re too late
I’m happy now, there’s no debate.
You had your chance but missed out
I’ve got someone that doesn’t mess about.
You still make me weak
Why is it you that I seek
It might just be a habit
It’s you from my life I must edit.
You're too late, I say no more
I can’t go there and see what’s in store
It’s finished and you’re just a mate
It’s over now, you're too late.

I wish you knew me
i wish you knew me,
like i know you,
we're one in the same,
and one in heart.
some say yes,
some say no,
some say high,
some say low.
you knew me well,
we saw it through,
and back then,
it was me and you.
it was something special,
i know we shared,
but now it's over,
and fallen apart.
i thought it true,
as you lead me through,
and then you left me,
like a ship lost at sea.
i'm gone i'm no more,
and it's plan to see,
i can no longer soar,
it was never meant to be.
my heart is broken,
because of you,
some think it's a joke,
if only you knew...
the sky is the limit,
as i fall down through,
into the depths of hell,
waiting for you.
you'll never know,
how much i care,
until you see me,
standing there.
when time passes,
days by days,
i can't help wonder,
all the same.
never again we'll be the same,
and i'll be left alone,
for once the chance to start to grow,
i couldn't help but walk out that door.
it's not your fault,
it's mine as well,
i'll never be the same,
because we've grown apart.

Baby tell me what youre trying to prove
Playing games with my heart
Hey now listen, I aint gonna take one more night
Youre the one who broke the rules
And Im the one who played the fool
Now youre trying to tell me its alright
You should know better than to hurt a friend
Youll never get another chance again
Youll be back where you started
I know you wont admit it but youre broken-hearted
Back where you started
You think its gonna be easy but it just gets harder, harder
You had a way with words
One look and I was under your spell
I didnt know should I stay or should I run
You cant deny you told me lies
Loveem and leaveem baby, thats your style
Im not affraid to take life as it comes
You play with fire I guess youll never learn
You mess with me babe, you re gonna get burned
Youll be back where you started
I know how it feels when youve been discarded
Back where you started
You think you got it made but it wont get you far, no it wont get you far
Whos gonna help ya, throw you a lifetime
Ill tell you one thing, youve really done it this time
You took your one chance and let it slip away

Well see eye to eye

As brontes bird a bird that could fly
And all accounts would be settled
