Hot Stuff
(coverdale)
Im ready for you,
Are you ready for me
Ive got a burning heart,
It wont let me be
I feel the hunger, my spirit yearns,
Ive got to feed the fever
Of a love that burns
I walk the street round midnight,
Looking for a little hot stuff,
I cant get enuff,
I just cant get enuff, hot stuff,
Hot stuff, hot stuff
Im hard to handle,
Too hot to hold
I cant seem to satisfy
My heart an soul
I need a woman to set me free,
A little miss understanding
To feel the need in me
I walk the street round midnight,
Looking for a little hot stuff,
I cant get enuff,
I just cant get enuff, hot stuff,
Cant get enuff, hot stuff,
I just cant get enuff, hot stuff,
Cant get enuff
Im ready for you,
Are you ready for me
Ive got a burning heart,
It wont let me be
I feel the hunger, my spirit yearns,
Ive got to feed the fever
Of a love that burns
I walk the street round midnight
Looking for a little hot stuff,
I cant get enuff,
I just cant get enuff, hot stuff,
Cant get enuff, hot stuff,
Cant get enuff, hot stuff,
Hot stuff, hot stuff,
Hot stuff, hot stuff,
Hot stuff, hot stuff,
Hot stuff, hot stuff,
I just cant get enuff, hot stuff,
I just cant get enuff, hot stuff,
Cant get enuff, hot stuff,
I just cant get enuff, hot stuff
Hot stuff, cant get enuff hot stuff...

Tuff Enuff
I would walk ten miles on my hands and knees
Aint no doubt about it baby, its you I aim to please
Id wrestle with a lion and a grizzly bear
Its my life baby, but I dont care
(chorus)
Aint that tuff enuff
Aint that tuff enuff
Aint that tuff enuff
Aint that tuff enuff
For you baby, I would swim the sea
Nothin Id do for you thats too tuff for me
Id put out a burning building with a shovel and dirt
And not even worry about getting hurt
(repeat chorus)
Id work twenty-four hours, seven days a week
Just so I could come home and kiss your cheek
I love you in the morning and I love you at noon
I love you in the night and take you to the moon
(repeat chorus)
Lay in a pile of buring money that Ive earned
And not even worry about getting burned
Id climb the empire state and fight muhammad ali
Just to have you, baby, close to me
(repeat chorus)
I would walk ten miles on my hands and knees
Aint no doubt about it baby, its you I aim to please
Id wrestle with a lion and a grizzly bear
Its my life baby, but I dont care
(repeat chorus)

Forgive And Forget
Forgive and forget as I've been told
That query keeps coming to my mind
As 'I forgive' is the easiest words for one to say
But to forget, to me it seems like a crime.
To forget the evils that someone has done
Or even the evils or lies that they had spoke
To walk away as they never had accrued
As though to have a nightmare and never to awoke.
When we were young we are taught by our elders
To forgive the trespasses against us one and all
We must forget the pain and suffering that we felt
And must lock that away behind our own brick wall.
The lies and the evils that were done to us,
Even by friends and the ones who we had loved
We must then say that I forgive you one and all
And to some, that forgiveness is not even enough.
Forgive and forget those words we have heard
Even the bible does speak the same
To forgive the sins that were committed against us all
And so against no one can we ever curse or blame.
Sometimes though it seems like in this life
The wrong doers are always asking to forgive and forget
And then the moment that you smile and accept their request
They attack you, and they feel no sadness or regret.
Forgiving sometimes it is so very hard to do
And then to forget that person of their evil deeds
While trying not to remember what they have done to you
While wishing in them, you once again could believe.
Now as I think about my very own past
Of all the wrongs and evil deeds to me I must accept
I read that forgiveness is mine so said the Lord
So now I toss the evils done to me off to forgive and forget.

You Want Me To Listen But You Don't
You want me to listen,
But you don't or wont.
You want me to listen,
But you don't!
You want me to listen,
But you don't or wont.
You want me to listen,
But you don't!
Undivided is my mind,
When giving you time.
But to that you don't listen and you wont!
When I'm there and able,
You don't think I'm capable.
You want me to listen,
But you don't or wont.
You want me to listen,
But you don't!
Every morning and at dawn,
Sing you do that same sad song.
'Nobody loves me.'
And...
You want me to listen,
But you don't or wont.
You can decide to have a change of heart.
But to that you don't listen and you wont!
Everyday there's a new way,
You can move or choose to stay.
But to that you don't listen and you wont,
And don't!
'Nobody loves me.'
You want me to listen,
But you don't or wont.
You want me to listen,
But you don't!

Forgive me
Forgive me
As I forgive thee
I know you are heart broken
But still you can forgive
I made you look smart
Without knowing you are full of hate
As the phrase says forgive and forget
If you don't do so, one day you'll regret
What goes round comes round
Remember this life is irrelevant
And you already know that
The blessings are those you receive
But still can't forgive
I know that I was wrong
Even though am very strong
But I can't show you my strength
But only to tell you the truth

Cry Of Love
Stand in the window
Close to the edge
As the neon signs surrender to the light of day
I sip a bitter cup of coffee
And I fade away oh I fade away
Theres a cross above my pillow
Curse words on the wall
What Id give to write the pages of my life again
No I cant believe this is the way
The story ends oh is this the end is this the end
I wanna run to the highest mountain
I wanna stand in the light of the sun
I wanna ask all this world to forgive the man that Ive become
And now I call on the angels above
Wont somebody hear wont somebody hear
My cry of love
Got a shoe box full of letters
Got a ring that I should pawn
Theres a picture on the table of the way we were
I wish to God I could forget
But I still think of her I think of her
Oh I think of her
I wanna run to the highest mountain
I wanna stand in the light of the sun
I wanna ask all this world to forgive the man that Ive become
And now I call on the angels above
Wont somebody hear wont somebody hear
My cry of love
Wont anybody listen to me
Can anybody hear my prayer
Wont anybody listen to my cry of love
Wont anybody listen to my cry of love
Wont anybody listen to my cry of love
I wanna ask all this world to forgive
The man that Ive become
And so I call on the angels above
Wont somebody hear wont somebody hear
My cry of love
Wont anybody listen to me
Can anybody hear my prayer
Wont anybody listen to me
Does anybody really care
My cry of love

Voices from beyond
Voices from beyond and afar.
Are talking to my adding to my fears.
They are driving me mad.
Sending me around the bend.
Making life all the more twisted.
Voices grind me down.
Keep it to myself.
I wont let on.
Not that people who should listen do anyways.
The voices are after me pushing me
Into an early grave.
They want me dead.
And they want me gone

They Don't Think So-The Rationale of Robert
I am a bad person
At least I have done bad things
I admit it.
Lied, hurt others, cheated
and things worse.
yes, I know.
All bad.
But I don't really believe that I
am a bad person.
I am a good person
who has done bad things.
Most I am sorry for;
some I am not as much
as I should.
But what am I to do?
A good person
trapped by my own bad deeds.
Should I flagellate
repent, confess?
But why?
The deeds were bad, not I.
A really good person could see that
and forgive me.
A bad person can not and will not.
So, I guess they are bad just like me.
Now that leaves the good people
who see that bad deeds are not me
and forgive.
They even may forget.
But the fact they able to do that
makes me feel inferior.
They think they are better than me
and that is bad.
So, if they make me feel bad
then they are not really good people.
So, you see the whole world is just like me
even if they don't think so.

I Wont Forget You
Late at night I close my eyes
And think of how things could have been
And when I look back
I remember some words you had said to me
Its better to have lost at love
Then never to have loved at all
Chorus
I wont forget you baby
(I wont forget you)
Even though I should
I wont forget you baby
(I wont forget you)
Even though I should, yeah
Sometimes in my head
I can still see pictures of you
And I laugh to myself
When I think of all those crazy things that we used to do
Although miles come between us
Just between you and me
Chorus
I should let you fade away
But that just wouldnt be me
Oh, baby
Solo
Although miles come between us
Just between you and me
I wont forget you baby
(I wont forget you)
Memories slowly fade
I wont forget you baby
(I wont forget you)
And all the plans we made
I wont forget you baby

I Cant Lose You
i fear the phone will rign and tell me you wont come home
the voice on the line will say the car crashed he died
on the way to the hospital
i fear that drink will be your last
every pound you lose brings you closer to death
that every coming day brings me closer to losing you
i need you tho i need you to be there if i get married i want you to hold my first chiled if i have one
i fear your end please dnt go
i fear you dnt care about yourself enuff to save you

Forgive my heart
My foolish heart it wont believe were through
Forgive my heart
Youre still a part of everything I do
Forgive my lips
If now and then
They speak your name
If you are still
My only thrill
Am I to blame
Forgive my dreams
In all my dreams it seems your face appears
Forgive my eyes
I realize Im only wasting tears
Dont know why you haunt me
But you do
Forgive my heart
Im still in love with you

Is This The Reason You've Been Distant
Should one forgive and forget,
An intentional 'slighting' done?
The kind that is directed and meant,
From a mind in pre-meditative stages.
I've gotten tired of being the one to understand.
By those who quickly accept and forget,
Before the carelessness of thought begins...
The same shhh...stuff, again!
Can you hear what I am saying?
You could at least nod your head.
And pretend I am worthy,
Of 'some' of your attention!
Should one forgive and forget,
An intentional 'slighting' done?
The kind that is directed and meant,
From a mind in pre-meditative stages?
'How do you think I should answer that?
Tell me how do you wish for me to respond?
I don't want either one of us to get upset.
Nor do I wish to say something I might regret.
How do you think I should answer that?
And what would you do and think of next? '
I've understood and given you attention.
But from you 'that' I don't get.
Whether or not I am upset.
The only thing I wish we had that I do regret,
Is communication.
And how that prolongs happiness in a relationship.
'If one is not happy why doesn't one leave? '
Like you have already done?
Is that what you are saying to me?
Are you saying,
You have long gone...
And I am told by you in third person?
Is this the reason you've been distant?
With an eagerness to dismiss yourself,
When I begin to reminisce.
And the chill I feel in the air,
Comes from a cold shoulder!
Waiting to be warmed in someone else's arms.
I should be alarmed by this.
But I am not.
You've taught me to expect,
Anything from you.
And I do.
Yes...
I do!
I have even regretted I once had said that to you too!
When it was meant,
I believed it!
Before the games began.

The River That Murmurs
I will ask the river, that flows serene
I will speak to the sky
I will ask the river that murmurs
Not to ask me why
I cannot speak for myself.
That time has long since passed me by.
The river can murmur and sing
Unspent by passion: my voice
Will break like a terribly taut string.
My words will be grammatically and academically
Twisted (like that leafless tree) , unfortunately!
I want the river to speak, to speak
Alone, alone with thee.
The river can, softly and without tears
Tell you my dreams and my fears
I know you will listen:
And while city lights in the water glisten
You wont see the tears that shine on my face
No, that is a serious, sentimental place
That only I know;
Flow, river, flow.
Flow, river flow.
Speak to the only love I know.
Daybreak approaches soon
You and he by the light of the moon
Will murmur whilst I -
Will wait for you to bring me his reply.

With Christ I Can
With Christ, I can live each day as it comes,
Whether storm or heat, living rich, or in the slums;
I can do all things, and yes! I can cope,
Because, Christ takes over, and gives me Hope.
With Christ, I can face each sorrow, and tear,
Where there may be frustration and fear;
Christ reminds me, He carries me along,
So; I can then in my heart sing a song.
With Christ, I can face the enemy of Life,
Knowing You oh Lord! Will keep me from strife;
I just have to give you, my angers that stay,
you take over them, and peace comes that day.
With Christ I can face the drawing day,
When my last breath I take, and I say;
Thank you Lord, for every trial You allowed,
For every strength you've given, so I can't be proud.

Youre Gonna Break My Heart Again
(coverdale/sykes)
Now I know
Ive seen that look
On your face before
When you realised
All the memories
Walked right out the door...
Now its eye for an eye
A tooth for a tooth
No more hiding behind the truth
Im gonna get exactly
Whats coming to me
Youre gonna break my heart again,
You never let me forget it
Youre gonna break my heart again
But, youre gonna live to regret it
Now you say
I took advantage of you
When you never knew the score
But, you should know
Weve been this way
One thousand times before
You told me once,
You told me twice
Its down to me, girl
To pay the price
But, this times the last time
Thats for sure...
Youre gonna break my heart again,
You never let me forget it
Youre gonna break my heart again
But, youre gonna live to regret it
Yes you are
You talk of how our love
Was meant to be
And all the time
You sacrificed for me...
So how could I forget it,
Why should I regret it
cos when you told me you loved me
I knew it was lies
So no more crying, no more goodbyes,
cos this times the last time
Thats for sure...break my heart...
Now you say
There is no one in the world
Can get the better of you
An you should know
cos you never made it easy
With the pain you put me thru
I told you once
I told you twice
Its down to you, girl
To pay the price
cos this times the last time
Thats for sure...
Youre gonna break my heart again,
You never let me forget it
Youre gonna break my heart again
But, youre gonna live to regret it
I just cant take anymore,
No more, no more, no more...

Give and Forgive
Give and forgive
And never keep a revenge
Do not forget that
The love is all that we need
To give us the courage
And the strength to forget
IT lights our souls
It guides us to shore
It frees our soul chains
It gives us the strength
To forget and forgive
when there is someone
In need to your help
Extended his hand
Don't turn your back and go
Hold his hand and help
When you see painful eyes
Are looking to you fo rhelp
Try to wipe his tears
Don't forget that even with a smile
You can save a life.

It Must Be Over
Written by: r. robinson & c. robinson
No matter what road I take
No matter what laws I break, I still
I keep singing these songs
No matter what my mistakes
No matter how high the stakes, I wont
I wont ever fold
And with time youll see
You will forget about me
And Ive already disowned you
From my memory
Can you see
I know it must be over
This love can last no longer
We both know that it must be over
Now I see
No matter what words I write
No matter no wrong nor right, you still
You listen anyway
No matter where I sleep tonight
No matter if the stars if the stars shine bright, I know
That Im on my way
And with time youll see
You will forget about me
And Ive already disowned you
From my memory
Can you see
I know it must be over
This love can last no longer
We both know that it must be over
Now I see
Alone is just alone
Tell me whats a happy home
Tell me whats a wasted year
When you lose, when you lose all of your fears
Tell me
And with time youll see
You will forget about me
And Ive already disowned you
From my memory
Can you see
I know it must be over
This love can last no longer
We both know that it must be over
Now I see, now I see, now i....
I know, I know that it must over
This love can last no longer
We both know that it must be over
Now I see
