Call It Even
I saw an open door and I looked inside it
But Id no idea
What you were hiding
So now Im holding the bag
And its heavy
And the conversation stopped
So much for friendly
And if I told you I was not very good
At making small talk when I should
But you have one advantage over me
At times like this Im lost at sea
Chorus
Why cant I see it for what it really is
And know it like I know my name
And if its all the same I dont like this game
So lets pack it up
And call it even
Well Im not the type to speak
Just to hear my voice
And Im sure youd hear me out
If you had the choice
But your words keep coming out
Neverending
And I wonder if Id have to shout and if I told you I was dying of thirst
And the sky was falling just to make it worse
Would you just smile and continue on
As if your mouth had a race to run
Chorus
Well Im glad we had this talk
I feel better
And if Ive something else to say
Ill write a letter
And if I told you you were not very good
At hearing others when you really should
Would you just smile and push me away
You cant be bothered theres still words to say
Chorus

Sidewalk Talk
Watch where you walk 'cause the sidewalks talk
And you can't keep a secret from the ground beneath you
Step very lightly on the earth below
Or before you know it everyone will know
Streets were paved with a thousand eyes
And try as you may you can't disguise
There's only two things that you can't hide from
That's you and the ground you're walking on
Chorus:
Watch where you walk, 'cause the sidewalks talk
You better watch what you do, what you do
'cause the sidewalk talk can get carried away
You better watch what you say, what you say
Think when you speak 'cause you gotta 'long the street
They can read what you say so you gotta stay away
From words that sting, words are not true
And the things you say make a fool of you
Little white lies make the sidewalk cry
And you can betray with the things you say
Words won't last when you say 'em too fast
And you've been mislead by the things you've said
(chorus)
Intermediate:
When you're living on the street
Life can be full of misery
Find a place to call your own
Make your heart into a home
You can do it, uh huh
(repeat 3 times)
You can do it
After every word there's a place that heard
Every time your shoe hits the avenue
And when you've gone they'll sing a song
Of the stories you told when you felt so bold
You better think twice when you cross the ice
Everything you do comes back to you
When you're shedding a tear sidewalks will hear
When your laughter's true they'll run with you
(chorus)
(intermediate)
You can do it, uh huh
(repeat 3 times)
You can do it
(repeat 3 times)

What Are You Gonna Do
When you are alone,
You come back cryin and you want to go home;
For someone forgettin it seems
Like youre lettin it take you away from me.
Was your idea to pack up and go.
You said you had no life of your own.
Movin in was not too hard to do.
Ya got second thoughts; youre gonna have to choose.
Chorus:
What are you gonna do ?
Forget about your mother and think about you.
For someone forgettin it seems
Like youre lettin it take you away from me.
Told you all the secrets that were mine.
The good things that I picked up overtime.
Wont accept the reason why youre here;
Talk things out; overcome the fear.
Chorus
Chorus
Thought that I was all that you need,
You told me things I wanted to believe.
You know that leaving me would be wrong;
Stay with me, Ill help you to be strong.

Fretless
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
Hes got his work and she comes easy
They each come around when the other is gone
Me, I think I got stuck somewhere in between
I wouldnt confide in the prodigal son
The die has been cast, the battle is won
The bullets were blanks, a double aught gun
I couldnt admit to a minute of fun
(chorus 1)
They come and they come and they come and they come
I accepted with a gentle tongue
No words spoken, no need to speak
Take it, stomp twice, ring the bell
Tether that ring and phrase
Enough with the rifle and talk already
We all know what it means
Take this conversation to your great divide
I can only swallow what I ate
And I dont hate him
And I dont hate her
They come and they come and they come and they come
I accepted with a gentle tongue
No heart broken, no need to speak
(chorus 2)
(dont talk to me)
Dont talk to me about being alone
(dont talk to me)
Dont talk to me about being alone
(dont talk to me)
Dont talk to me about being alone
Reach for each other before you leave
Reach peace with a e-a-c
Dont threaten me with a gentle tease
Dont threaten me with angry
Please, please, please
Dont try to tell me what I am
(repeat chorus 1)
(repeat chorus 2)

Secrets
Written: stock aitken waterman
1a:
Still dont know how he got my number
Thought Id got him out of my life
But I agreed to see him just one time
Never thought Id fall for him twice
1b:
Ohh, youve gotta hear my confession
I believe its long overdue
I cant think of living without you
Id understand if thats what youd wanna do
Chorus:
There are
Secrets that you never know
Secrets in a private room
Secrets that I kept from you
Pillow talk in the afternoon
2:
Never wanted to hurt you
Didnt really want to deceive
I was so afraid if I told you
Your broken heart would force you to leave
I think I knew what I was doing
By falling into his arms again
I wish Id seen right through him
But Im telling you cos Im so ashamed

Body Talk
I can tell
By the way you stare at me
(talk):
Its deep...real deep
Your minds messed up
Words just dont come easily
(talk):
It should be natural
Your invitation...baby
Turned my head around
Quiet conversation
Language without sound
Body talk...work your body
Everybody let your body talk
Body talk...work your body
Everybody needs some body talk
The guy with me
Hes just a friend of mine
(talk)
Its purely platonic
So if youre tuff enuff
Baby step across the line

Girlfriend dont bite
My imagination...baby
Bound to blow my mind
Body talk...work your body
Everybody let your body talk
Body talk...work your body
Everybody needs some body talk
Body talk
I can hear your body talk
Speak to me baby
Body talk
I can hear your body talk
Speak to me baby

Come on over here
Your lips aint moving
But I hear you loud and clear

One Sweet Day
Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say
And now its too late to hold you
cause youve flown away
So far away
Never had I imagined
Living without your smile
Feeling and knowing you hear me
It keeps me alive
Alive
Chorus:
And I know youre shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends weve lost along the way
And I know eventually well be together
One sweet day
Eventually well sing in heaven
Darling I never showed you
Assumed youd always be there
And I took your presence for granted
But I always cared
And I miss the love we shared
Chorus
Although the sun will never shine the same
Ill always look to a brighter day
Lord I know when I lay me down to sleep
You will always listen as I pray

Sorry I never told you

Your Smile For Me
Your smile could change my mood.
And that time I used to feel so good.
And your smile could even make me smile.
Although I was crying I would laugh for a while.
Funny thing and jokes, which I used to tell.
You would laugh and my jokes never did fail.
I am sorry that I never laughed with you.
But still your smile means lot to me and it's true.
You didn't seem to be okay yesterday.
Your parents? ? tell me what did they say? ?
I told you joke and even made fun of myself.
I didn't hear you laughing; I know I am not deaf.
What I am making you angry? i just can't see you,
Unhappy do you even know how much I love you? ?
Are you there? ? why are you not replying? ?
Please reply, without you here I feel like dying.
If I am making you angry then fine I m going
I won't talk to you ever and I am not crying.
You told only I used to make you smile, care about
You while other made you angry and give you hated.
I m just sorry that I thought I was your everything.
Without me you would not be even breathing.
Sorry that I cared about you and tried to make you smile.
Let's see how would you live if I m gone for a while

Talk Dirty To Me
You know I never
I never seen you look so good
You never act the way you should
But I like it
And I know you like it too
The way that I want you
I gotta have you
Oh yes, I do
You know I never
I never ever stay out late
You know that I can hardly wait
Just to see you
And I know you cannot wait
Wait to see me too
I gotta touch you
Chorus:
Cause baby well be
At the drive-in
In the old mans ford
Behind the bushes
Till Im screamin for more
Down the basement
Lock the cellar door
And baby
Talk dirty to me
You know I call you
I call you on the telephone
Im only hoping that youre home
So I can hear you
When you say those words to me
And whisper so softly
I gotta hear you

Walk Away From Love
Move along youre in my way.
Ive made my mind up not to stay
And it dont matter what you do
cos me, Ive had enough of you.
And you can talk about the good times
I can just remember bad times.
There aint nothing left for saying
cos theres no way that Ill be staying
You tell me to remember
When I told you that Id never walk away
(chorus)
Hey baby, dont walk away from love
Tell me baby, aint my love enough,
Listen to the things I say
And tell me why do you walk away from love?
Leave you standing on your own
Its time I spent some time alone
Need a while to think this out
Not sure what its all about.
And its no use to sit there crying
cos I can see youre only lying.
Now Ill put the past behind me
Run some place where you cant find me.
You tell me to remeber
When I told you that Id never walk away.
(chorus repeat)
Bags are packed, I just cant wait.
Gotta get out before it gets too late,
I dont need you any more
And I dont need your love for sure.
And you can talk about the good times
I can just remember bad times.
There aint nothing left for saying
cos there no way that Ill be staying
You tell me to remember when I told you that Id never walk away.

Talk To My Heart
I found a friend someone to help me
And a place I can be myself when Im in trouble now
Ive lost it and I dont know how
I come to you cause you can show me
Get me back to the me I know with a remedy
Baby I need your therapy
With your healing kiss you know how to make my mind relax
I will listen to the words you say and just lie back
Chorus
Talk to my heart thats where real talkin starts
Words of love that cut straight to my heart
Reach out and touch so few words say so much
I can hear you when you tell it like it is
When you talk straight to my heart
I guess it shows I need attention
Somehow youre asking all the right questions and Ive gotta say
Whats been on my mind these days
And I know you know just how to make my mind react
When its coming straight from you thats my first point of contact
Chorus
Talk to my heart thats where real talkin starts
Words of love that cut straight to my heart
Reach out and touch so few words say so much
I can hear you when you tell it like it is
When you talk straight to my
Im bad at making decisions
But being alone with you just feels so right feels so right
Im losing my inibitions
With every minute I share with you tonight share it with you tonight

I really cant say
How I feel right now
I would if I could
But I dont know how
Just give me some time
And Ill come around
Ill pick myself up
Ill dust myself down
Verse one
Lets leave it at that
I dont want to fight
Dont say anything that you may regret
In fact, its the last thing I need tonight
Your words in my head are hard to forget
Repeat chorus
Verse two
Lets leave it for now
Lets call it a day
We dont have to talk about this anymore
That look on you face gave it all away
Weve travelled these roads many times before

Lets leave it alone
Before its too late
Give it a rest for a moment or two
We can pick it back up at a later date
If you feel thats what you have to do

Words
Girl, dont you know everytime I see you smilin?
Hurts so bad cause when I see you, I start tryin.
Try everything to stop but theres no denying.
Falling in love with you girl is just like dying.
Ohhh, dont walk away.
Ohh, how can I make you stay, dont turn away
I can still hear you saying those
Chorus:
Words that never were true.
Spoken to help nobody but you.
Words with lies inside,
But small enough to hide
til your playin was through. ah!
Girl dont you know we can work it out with talkin?
You wont turn around or slow down your walking.
Ive given you everything with kiss to seal it
You had to get your kicks with tryin to steal it.
Now, Im standing here.
Strange, strange voices in my ears, I feel the tears
But all I can hear are those

Now, Im standing here.
Strange, strange voices in my ears, I feel the tears
But all I can hear are those-

Dont Talk To Strangers
When you were just a young girl and still in school
How come you never learned the golden rule
Dont talk to strange men, dont be a fool
Im hearing stories, I dont think thats cool
Why dont you tell me, someone is loving you
Cause youre my girl, some say its no longer true
Youre seeing some slick continental dude
Im begging you, please
Dont talk to strangers, baby dont you talk
Dont talk to strangers, you know hell only use you up
Dont talk, dont talk, dont talk,
Dont talk, dont talk to him
Nobody, talk, nobody, ever told you, dont talk
Now tell me, hows life in the big city
I hear the competitions tough, baby thats a pity
And every mans an actor, every girl is pretty
I dont like whats getting back to me
Now whos this, don juan Ive been hearing of
Love hurts when only ones in love
Did you fall at first sight or did you need a shove
Im begging you, please
Dont talk to strangers, baby dont you talk
Dont talk to strangers, you know hell only use you up
Dont talk, dont talk, dont talk,
Dont talk, dont talk to him
Nobody, talk, nobody ever told you, dont talk
*fais lamour avec moi (*make love to me)
Whats he saying baby
*viens dormir, mon amour (*come to sleep my love)
I asked you not to talk to him
*je taime donne moi ton coeur ce soir (*i like you to give me your heart this night)
Im begging you
Dont talk to strangers, baby dont you talk
Dont talk to strangers, you know hell only use you up
Dont talk, dont talk, dont talk,
Dont talk, dont talk to him
Nobody, talk, nobody ever told you, dont talk
Dont talk to strangers, baby dont you talk
Dont talk to strangers, you know hell only use you up

Round and round I go
Where I stop
You will never know
Round and round I go
Where I stop
You will never know

I just dont understand
What is your master plan
What did you have me do
Confusion in my mind
Been hurt a thousand times
Now I know youre not true

You dont know what it meant to me
Just to make you happy
All this time Ive waited
Now our love has faded
Please tell me why its gone
So my life can go on

I told you once before
Im walkin out the door
Im leaving you behind
Thinking bout you all the time
Makes me so sad and blue

When you told me you loved me
Now youre actin shady
Now Im goin crazy

Aint That Unusual
Could you talk to me
Honestly?
cause I never heard a word you said now
And I aint just being mean
cause all we are is what were told
And most of thats been lies
Its like a made for tv movie
And I just blew my line
Someday you never made it
And maybe it never will
Hey, you never made it
And aint that unusual?
Now I feel unknown
And its safe that way
Are you too bored to care or too dumb to be scared now?
Whats that supposed to mean?
Im burned out on some empty reasons
Another waste of time
Theres somethin that I wish Id said
But I dont think itd rhyme

See Id love to be you
Then at least then Id see you
Sorry I put them words in your mouth

Its freezing in the corner of my mind

Get ready for love

In the elevator
Or lock the door
Shine my pistol some more
Here I cum
Just ten seconds more

Pull my trigger
My guns loaded with your love
Ten seconds to love

Make a star outta you
Lets inject it
Photograph it
Down to the subway
Let the boys have it

I Wanna Hear It From Your Lips
(eric carmen/dean pitchford)
I hear it from my friends
I hear it on the street
I hear it in the air, here and there, everywhere
And from everyone I meet
And every time I hear you love me
Ooh, my heart skips
But I wanna hear it from your lips
(you never told me, ooh, you never told me)
I wanna hear it from your lips
(you never told me, ooh)
I hear it in my car
I hear it on the phone
I hear it in a crowd, nice and loud, completely now
I hear it when Im all alone
And every time I hear you love me
Ooh, my heart skips
But I wanna hear it from your lips
(you never told me, ooh, you never told me)
I wanna hear it from your lips
(you never told me, ooh)
Everybodys been told, and the whole world knows
Just how good our love is gonna be
But ooh-ee (ooh-ee), baby (baby)
You never told me
You never told me
I see it in your eyes
I feel it in your touch
You even found a way you can say all you mean
But you never say too much
And if youd only say you love me
Ooh, my heartll flip
And I wanna hear it from your lips
(you never told me, ooh, you never told me)
I got to hear it from your lips
(you never told me, ooh you never told me)
Baby, baby, I got to have it from your lips
(you never told me, ooh, you never told me)
