When Love Attacks
(rick derringer/ larry sloman)
Producer for bonnie: rick derringer
Recorded in 1983 for rick derringer's 'good dirty fun' album. he had previously been working with bonnie on 'faster than the speed of night' and later asked her to duet. lyrics taken from careful listening.
He's bitter, so blue
Cold armour, see through
Heavy heart, heavy head
Walking tall, walking dead
Then love attacks
And you can try to hide
But in the end there's nowhere
It can get inside
A triple-locked apartment
A secret compartment
Can't conceal the treasure
When love comes to take your heart away
She's fragile, so torn
Spanish lace, so shop-worn
There's a rainbow
And there's a stream
A total eclipse
Of a dream
Then love attacks
And you can try to hide
But in the end there's nowhere
It can get inside
A triple-locked apartment
A secret compartment
Can't conceal the treasure
When love comes to take your heart away
Now he can seem tough
You think he must be scarred
But if you scratch below the surface you'll find
That he's just love-starved
She's so hungry
For something new
Or something borrowed
Out of the blue
Then love attacks
And you can try to hide
But in the end there's nowhere
It can get inside
A triple-locked apartment
A secret compartment
Can't conceal the treasure
When love comes to take your heart away

First Love
(bonnie tyler/ paul hopkins)
Producer for bonnie: nicky graham
Recorded in 1983 as a b-side for the single straight from the heart. lyrics taken from careful listening.
I wonder if you think Im me
As I love you each day, yeah
I wonder if you listen to
The words I sing and what I say
They say that your first love never dies
You can put out the flames, but not the fire
Bottled up inside, you cant come out
First love, you were my, first love
First love
First love
Friend say you ask of me
And talk of how we used to be, yeah
At times I wondered if Id dare
Ring and tell you how I care
They say that your first love never dies
You can put out the flame, but not the fire
round and round I keep on going
Like a spiral never slowing
First love, you were my, first love
First love
First love
They say that your first love never dies
You can put out the flames, but not the fire
Bottled up inside, you cant come out
Theres nowhere to hide
I cant even show it
First love, you were my, first love
First love, you were my, first love
You were my first, yeah
You were my, first love
First love, you were my first love
First love, first love, first love
You were my first love

If only you could see me
If only you could love me
First love
If only you could hear me, yeah...

There is a time for everything in this world

Empty Apartment
Call me out
You stayed inside
One you love
Is where you hide
Shot me down as I flew by
Crash and burn
I think sometimes you forget where the heart is
Answer no to these questions
Let her go, learn a lesson
It's not me, you're not listening now
Can't you see something's missing?
You forget where the heart is
Take you away from that empty apartment
You stay and forget where the heart is
Someday if ever you love me you'd say it's okay
Waking up from this nightmare
How's your life, what's it like there?
Is it all what you want it to be?
Does it hurt when you think about me?
And how broken my heart is
Take you away from that empty apartment
You stay and forget where the heart is
Someday if ever you love me you'd say it's okay
It's okay to be angry and never let go
It only gets harder the more that you know
When you get lonely if no one's around
You know that I'll catch you when you're falling down
We came together but you left alone
And I know how it feels to walk out on your own
Maybe someday I will see you again
And you'll look me in my eyes and call me your friend
Take you away from that empty apartment
You stay and forget where the heart is
Someday if ever you love me you'd say its okay
It's okay
It's okay

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

If You Got Love
When you walk in a room
You hold your head up high
You talk to people eye to eye
Theres nothing to hide
Youre feeling so complete inside
Your heart feels so complete inside
cause you got love.
If you got love
You know you got it
If you got love
Cant live without it
If you got love
The world youre walking in
Is at your command
Youre staring in the face of scorn
You know your spirit cant be torn
Youre living like a satellite
Maintain your distance through the night
You know that something isnt right
Your heart tells you its just not right
cause you got love.
If you got love
You know you got it
If you got love
Cant live without it
If you got love
The world youre walking in
Is at your command.
If you got love
The world youre walking in
Is at your command
If you got love
To share
If you got love
To share.

Seduction Surrender
Way deep in the night, the voice of love is calling,
(so) clear is the darkness, that reflects your face,
Born out of love, locked in desire,
The heat from your fire, seduction,
Cries fill the dark, I feel your embrace,
Losing control, surrender!
Oh oh, I hear love calling. oh oh the voice of love,
Hard is the flesh, soft is the night,
The rhythm of my heart beats like a drum,
The language of my body moves to a time,
The rhythm of desire like fire.
Oh oh, I hear love calling, oh oh the voice of love,
Oh oh, I can hear love calling, oh oh the voice of love,
I will be wrapped inside your love, I will be right within your love,
I will be wrapped inside your love,
Seduction surrender Ill always remember.
Locked inside your love, I will be right inside your love,
I will be wrapped within your love,
Seduction surrender, Ill always remember.
Oh oh, I hear love calling, oh oh, the voice of love,
Oh oh, I can hear love calling, oh oh the voice of love,
I will be wrapped inside your love, I will be right inside your love,
I will be wrapped inside your love,
Seduction surrender Ill always remember.
Locked inside your love, I will be there within your love,
I will be wrapped inside your love,
Seduction surrender Ill always remember,
Locked inside your love, I will be there within your love,
I will be wrapped inside your love(echoes),
Seduction surrender Ill always remember.
Seduction,
Seduction!!!

Love Never Fails
Love is not proud,
Love does not boast,
Love after all
Matters the most.
Love does not run,
Love does not hide.
Love does not keep
Locked inside.
Love is a river
That flows through,
And love never fails you…
Love will sustain,
Love will provide,
Love will no cease
At the and of time.
Love will protect,
Love always hopes,
And love still believes
When you don’t.
Love is the arms
That are holding you.
Love never fails you….
When my heart
Wont make a sound,
When I cant turn back around,
When the sky is falling down,
Nothing is greater than this,
Greater than this…
Cause love is right here,
Love is alive.
Love is the way,
The truth,
The life.
And love is a place
You will fly to.
Love never fails you...

I Cant Leave Your Love Alone
(alan darby/ david madiran)
Producers for bonnie: alan darby & david madiran
Recorded in 1991 as a b-side to the bitteblue single. it also found its way onto the b-side of the 1991 re-release of holding out for a hero (slightly extended version) and the 1993 compilation the very best of..., where it was incorrectly billed as previously unreleased . lyrics taken from careful listening.
There is a shadow rolling over my heart
Like a cloud across the moon
There is a devil on my shoulder
Spreading his light into my room
Broken head and empty heart
Shattered mind thats torn apart
I fall, I stumble into the night
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
A wicked wind beats at my window
Telling me that Im no good
Theres no life in this bleak desert
Theres no life, without you
Broken head and empty heart
Shattered mind thats torn apart
I fall, I stumble into the night
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
Broken head and empty heart
Shattered mind thats torn apart
I fall, I stumble into the night
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone

On And On
Words and Music by Amy Grant and Brown Bannister
Well, I don't understand this love I have inside
Would it be the same without that twinkle in your eye
And would it be the same if you came and said goodbye
Forever
I only know that the love that I feel
Doesn't come from somewhere inside of me
But I see it keeps on growin'
So I guess I'll just keep goin'
'Cause I'm confident in knowin'
It's from the Lord
And it grows on and on, flowin' on and on
Don't you see we just can't hide love
From growin' on and on, flowin' on and on
There's so many ways to say I love you
I love you
So I pray for eyes to see your needs
And ears to hear your spirit gently plead
Well I think I understand this love I have inside
It's coming from the Father, it will never be denied
Even if you came to me right now and said goodbye
Forever, forever, forever
Growin' on and on, flowin' on and on
Don't you see we just can't hide love
From growin' on and on, flowin' on and on
Got to show this love in my heart
Growin' on and on, flowin' on and on
Don't you see we just can't hide love
From growin' on and on, flowin' on and on
Got to show this love in my heart
Growin' on and on, flowin' on and on
Don't you see we just can't hide love
From growin' on and on, flowin' on and on
Got to show this love in my heart
Growin' on and on, flowin' on and on
Don't you see we just can't hide love
From growin' on and on, flowin' on and on
Got to show this love in my heart

Locked Inside Your Prison
Your love is like a prison wall
And its getting higher
I get so far and then I fall
I cant get through the wire
Oh oh oh Im locked inside your prison
Oh oh oh Im locked inside your prison
Its as though Im doing time
And you wont free me
Let the punishment befit the crime
And say you need me
Oh oh oh Im locked inside your prison
Oh oh oh Im locked inside your prison
Save me save me cant you see Im innocent
Turn the key that will set me free
Please let it end oh let it end
Oh oh oh Im locked inside your prison
Oh oh oh Im locked inside your prison
Save me save me cant you see Im innocent
Turn the key that will set me free
Please let it end wont you let it end
Ill dig a tunnel to your heart
Let me remind you
Even gonna tear the walls apart
Until I find you

Oh oh oh Im locked inside your prison

Lonely Footsteps Turn
But there's nowhere to hide
Hope is hiding its light under a bushel
But a heart needs to be - life-size
When love finds you and your heart
Still desperately alive!
So you curl up like a little boy blue
All prickles and indignation
Filled with missed assignations
Because you've loved and lost
And bitterness haunts you!
As the pain inside still trembles
With what's hurting deep inside
You cry in the secret corners of your mind
But there's a girl who leaves you
With nowhere now to hide
Lonely footsteps turn
But this time there's this warmth
Inside you a glowing ember
That can't contain, anymore loneliness…
Anymore lies…
Now you've found me
There's nowhere no reason for me to hide.

Love Is All That Matters
(diane warren)
Sometimes we make each other cry
Sometimes were locked inside the prisons of our pride
Sometimes we break each others heart with the words we say
Let anger get in the way too many times
But always after all
Love is all that matters
After everything
One thing remains the same
One thing we cannot change
We all have one heart
And one heart needs another
Love, love is all that matters
Love is all that matters
It matters after all
Sometimes we search this world for gold
When all we really need is just a hand to hold
Sometimes we let the greatest treasure just slip away
With words we forget to say too many times
But always after all
Love is all that matters
After everything
One thing remains the same
One thing we cannot change
We, we all have one heart
And one heart needs another
Love, love is all that matters
Love is all that matters
It matters after all
After all that weve been through
It comes down to one simple truth
You need me, I need you
cause love is all that matters
Love is all that matters
Love is all that matters
It matters after all
Love is all that matters
Its the only thing that matters
It matters after all
Love is all that matters

Picture this
On then off relationship does it make sense? My heart
doesn’t understand this nonsense. My heart thinks on its own.
It holds defense when love is doing wrong. Holds offense
to keep its love at a steady beat and in control. My heart
even plays music cause it knows your favorite old R&B songs.
My heart keeps memories of special moments so when I think
of the bad I see the good and wont be mad or sad. My heart
knows it can't win a fight against love. My heart can stay up late
night and argue with love. My heart can't hide love in the dark
because my heart likes to show off love in during day light.
But we can make love at the stroke of midnight. My heart can’t lie
about love. My heart will write about love telling love how much big
love I got over the love I already got for love. My heart can't run from
love don't want to leave it behind. My heart rather walking close to love
to catch everything my heart needs from love. My heart can’t be in two
different places cause it only remember one face. My heart will do
anything to prove its love. My heart can’t close its eyes on love but
my heart could dream about love when I sleep. My heart is not about
to beg for love either you want me or you don't. And they say a person
heart doesn't have a brain.
Does everything happens for a reason or because
how the seasons changes maybe we just don't see
the blessing we have in front of us.

I'm seeing in your way
But I don't believe it's true
That I'm not the one to make you happy
It would be so wrong
For us to break in two
But do what you gotta do
I hope that you find someone
Who can love you like I do
I'll be strong inside
But I'll still be loving you
It's no secret [4x]
When I first meet you
How you changed my life that day
But with each tomorrow
You just seem to drift away
Then I discovered
That you were cheating
You were cheating on me
But I was the last to know
Ooh, ooh
Our love was a life
And it's no secret
It's no secret
How you hurt me inside
And it's no secret
Because you told everybody
Rain falling down
Another minute passes by
I'll wait for you
But this time I won't cry
Where are you now
Are you with another love
It's not the first time
You stood me up and let me down
I, I, I'm wondering why
I still love you
Je ne sais pas pourquoi
I still want you
Je ne sais pas pourquoi
Did you believe I'd let you down
Your jealous heart
Gave you the runaround
You couldn't see that
I would always be a friend
If you could look inside your heart
And understand what's tearing you apart
You gotta trust someone
Don't let hate get in the way
Just turn it into love
Turn it into love
And open up your heart
And you'll never feel ashamed
If you turn it, turn it
Turn it into love
In my imagination
There is no complication
I dream about you all the time
In my mind of celebration
The sweetest of sensation
Thinking you could be m

Words Get In The Way
I realize youre seeing someone new
I dont believe she knows you like I do
Your temperamental moody side, the one you always try to hide from me
But I know when you have some thing on your mind
Youve been trying to tell me for the longest time
And before you break my heart in two,
Theres something Ive been trying to say to you
But the words get in the way
Theres so much I want to say
But its locked deep inside and if you look in my eyes,
We might fall in love again.
I wont even start to cry, and before we say goodbye
I tried to say I love you
But the words got in the way
Your heart has always been an open door
But baby I dont even know you any more
And despite the fact its hurting me,
I know the time has come to set you free
But the words get in the way
Theres so much I want to say
But its locked deep inside and if you look in my eyes,
We might fall in love again
I wont even start to cry, and before we say goodbye
I tried to say I love you, but the words got in the way
Im trying to say I love you
But the words get in the way

Heavy Love
I may not mystify you
In your search for higher love
I may just slip right by you
With your eyes turned up above.
We may not compromise
I may not suit your taste tonight
My love
But as the time goes by
You might think that Im all right
My love, my heavy love.
A noise, your phone is ringing
Or is that someone at your door
Inside your head Im singing
Inside your heart I cry for more.
You may not hear me calling
You may not feel me bawling out
My love
But heavy rocks are falling
Heavy love is coming down
My love, my heavy love.
A noise, your phone is ringing
Or is that someone at your door
Inside your head Im singing
Inside your heart I dig for more.
We may not compromise
I may not suit your taste tonight

But as the time goes by
You might think that Im all right

Can you try to hide

Can you carry on

Go on and on
Are you sure about that
You've been pushed
You've been shoved
You've been left and unloved
Oh why do you still stay
So many tears that you cry every night

You hid behind a smile
But now you're broken
And you're bruised
Have you ever considered
that life is a invitation for you
to decide in your mind
to accept or decline the reality of truth
You've gotta let it out boy
You've gotta let it go
You've got it give it up
If you really wanna know

You've done it your way for so long

The Desert Is In Your Heart
producer for bonnie: ?
Recorded in 1992 for sophie arbaniti 's album 'parafora', lyrics taken from
Careful listening.
First half of this song is in greek...so your guess is as good as mine - here's
The english part...
You move the veil from your face
And escape from the world that is hurting
You feel oppressed when you know
That the words are killing the meaning
There is no reason to hide in the dark
When you're far from the fighting
How can you dream in a world that is getting greyer than grey?
You don't have to hide your face, there's no disgrace
There's no harm in knowing that we're all a part of the human race
You have got to lift your head, think of what he said
You were born to know the truth, nothing but the truth, and what the truth is
Worth
Oh, the desert is in your heart
In your heart
The desert is in your heart
In your heart
It's so hard to try to forget
So many thinks you regret
You try to look back, but there's little to see
Just nothing can't take this pain from me
Oh, the desert is in your heart
In your heart
You don't have to hide your face
There's no disgrace
There's no harm in knowing we're all a part of the human race
You have got to lift your head, think of what he said
You were born to know the truth, nothing but the truth, and what the truth is
Worth
Oh, the desert is in your heart
In your heart
The desert is in your heart
In your heart

In your heart

The desert is in your heart

The desert is in your heart
