We Can Stop The Hurting
What has happened to our town
Theres people sleeping on the ground
Cold and lost, they fear the night
Left alone, theyll lose the fight
Hadnt we better reach for more than just a dime
Shouldnt we try to talk that boy out of his crime
Havent you had it knowing nothings getting solved
Maybe wed better, better get involved
Chorus:
We could stop the hurtin for awhile
We could stop the hurtin for awhile
If we found a way to reconcile
We could stop the hurtin
Families livin in their cars and kids run numbers out of bars
Knowing pride wont pay the bills, men work jobs beneath their skills
Hadnt we better hand out more than just a line
Shouldnt we try to find solutions with our minds
Havent you had it knowing nothings getting solved
Maybe wed better, better get involved

Hurtin Comes Easy
Ive spent a lifetime lookinfor love
Just when I find it, it comes undone
Ive tried so hard to make love happen
Like some never endinpattern
I end up on the sad side of the fun
Hurtincomes easy
Hurtincomes easy
Hurtincomes easy
For me
Well, Ive seen people that got it made
Theyve got someone and love looks great
But me, Ive been to every doctor
Ive tried it wild and tried it proper
And I always end up watchinlove walk away
Thats ok
Chorus
Ive gotten used to getting over
And hopefully as I grow older
Love wont be so difficult to see
But now for me

Aint Hurtin Nobody
Im a walkin down the street like lucky larue
Got my hand in my pocket Im thinkin bout you
I aint hurtin nobody
I aint hurtin no one
Theres three hundred men in the state of tennessee
Theyre waiting to die, they wont never be free
I aint hurtin nobody
I aint hurtin no one
Six million seven hundred thousand and thirty-three lights on
You think someone could take the time to sit down
And listen to the words of my song
At the beach in indiana I was nine years old
Heard little richard singing tutti frutti
From the top of a telephone pole
I wasnt hurtin nobody
I wasnt hurtin no one
Theres roosters laying chickens and chickens layin eggs
Farm machinery eating peoples arms and legs
I wasnt hurtin nobody
I wasnt hurtin no one
Perfectly crafted popular hit songs never use the wrong rhyme
Youd think that waitress could get my order
Right the first time
Shes sitting on the back steps just shucking that corn
That gals been grinning since the day she was born
She aint hurtin nobody
She aint hurtin no one
I used to live in chicago where the cold wind blows
I delivered more junk mail than the junkyard would hold
I wasnt hurtin nobody
I wasnt hurtin no one
You can fool some of the people part of the time
In a rock and roll song
Fifty million elvis presley fans
Cant be all wrong

Lovin On The Side
Well, I just want to clear the air,
I already know, and darlin I still care,
But were crippled every time I close my eyes.
I know its hard when youre all alone,
And you always come back home
Looks like were hurtin from your lovin on the side
I think Ive probly seen her, believe I know her name,
Darlin does it make you satisfied?
Shes the one whos feeling happy, Im the one who wants to die
I think youve gone just a little too far this time.
So I just want to clear the air
I already know, and darlin I still care,
But were hurtin from your lovin on the side
Im not saying that I approve, or that I can stand it,
But I know Ive got to give us one more try.
I keep prayin you still love me, but soon my prayer will die,
If every time we talk, you hide your eyes.
So I just want to clear the air
I already know, and darlin I still care
But were crippled every time you close your eyes
I know its hare when youre all alone,
And if you really want to come back home,
Stop this hurtin, stop your lovin on the side
Stop this hurtin, stop your lovin on the side.

I Cant Stop Hurting You
She looked at me with eyes that cut right through me and said
You must be blind
Let me tell you a little something about yourself
Youre the hurtin kind
I must admit after the pain and fight
Ive a sneaking suspicion that you might be right
I love you, I love you, I love you
But I cant stop hurting you
I want to, I want to
I cant stop hurting you
I cant, I cant
I cant stop hurting you, its getting bad
I dont know what to do
I see you packing up all your precious little things
That mean so much to you
I hurt you now youre moving out again
But we know just what youll do
Well see the error of our ways in crime
With conciliatory promises well change this time
I love you, I love you, I love you
But I cant stop hurting you
I want to, I want to
I cant stop hurting you
I cant, I cant
I cant stop hurting you, its getting bad
I dont know what to do
I love you, I love you
I cant stop hurting you
I need to, I need to
I cant stop hurting you
I cant, I cant
I cant stop hurting you
Its getting bad, I dont know what to do
And when you go I miss you all night
The wounds heal from the scratch and bite
I dont know whats wrong
I dont know whats right
But I cant stop hurting you
I cant stop hurting you
We talk so coolly about the pros and cons
When I get hot headed I just cant hold on
I love you, I love you, I love you
I cant stop hurting you
I need to, I need to
I cant stop hurting you
I cant, I cant
I cant stop hurting you
Its getting bad, I dont know what to do

It Keeps Right On A-Hurtin' (take 2)
I cry myself to sleep each night
Wishing I could hold you tight
Life seems so empty since you went away
And the pillow where you lay your head
Now holds my empty dreams instead
And it keeps right on a-hurtin'
Since you're gone
It keeps right on a'hurtin every minute of the day
Every hour you're away I feel so lonely
And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone
They say a man ain't supposed to cry
But when I see you passing by
My heart breaks down and cries a million tears
The pillow where you lay your head
Now holds my empty dreams instead
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone
It keeps right on a'hurtin every minute of the day
Every hour you're away I feel so lonely
And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone
Yes, it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone

Your Hurtin Kind Of Love
(ivor raymonde / mike hawker)
I wanted you so
Wanted you to hold me tight
Take my love and treat me right
I needed your love so
But youre just the hurtin kind
Nearly drove me out of my mind
Your hurtin kinda love
Your hurtin kinda love, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
It left me crying
Id never been blue
I never had to cry all day
Tryin to wash the hurt away
But then I fell for you
Giving you the love I had
Just to have you treat me so bad
Your hurtin kinda love
Your hurtin kinda love, oh, oh, oh, oh
It left me crying
So, now youre with another love
It just may be your lover
Could be the one to do what you have
Done to me, yeah
I want you to know
Even though you broke my heart
I can make a brand new start
Im so glad to see you go
You will bring me no more pain
I will never cry again
Your hurtin kinda love
Your hurtin kinda love, oh, oh
Its over, baby, yeah
Your hurtin kinda love
Your hurtin kinda love
Come on baby, take this hurt off me, yeah
Come on baby, take this hurt off me, yeah
Come on baby, take this hurt off me

Satisfied
We work our bodies weary to stay alive
There must be more to livin than nine to five
Why should we wait for some better time
There may not even be a tomorrow
Aint no sense in losing your mind
Im gonna make it worth the ride
Chorus
Dont you know, I wont give up until
Im satisfied
Dont you know, why should I stop until
Im satisfied
Ignore the hesitation, that ties your hands
Use your imagination, and take a chance
I wont let my moment of thuth pass me by
Ive gotta make my move now or never
And if they turn mr loose on this town
Theyre gonna have to hold me down
Chorus
Oh, dont you know, aint gonna stop until
Were satisfied
Dont you know, we shouldnt stop until
Were satisfied
Dont you know, aint gonna stop until

Dont you know, we wont give up until

Needles & Pins
Saw him today
I saw his face, it was the face I love
And I knew I had to run away
And get down on my knees and pray
That they go away but still they begin
Needles and pins
Because of all my pride
The tears I gotta hide
Hey I thought I was smart
Id won his heart
I didnt think Id lose
But I see she worst to him than me
Let him go ahead take her love instead
And one day he will see
Just how to say please
Wow and get down on his knees
Thats how it begins
Hurtin him hurtin him
Why cant I stop and tell myself
Its wrong so wrong
Why cant I stand up
Tell myself to be strong
Because I saw him today
I saw his face it was the face I love
I cant let go, although I know
Hell make me cry until the day I die
But people I got to live now
Wow lord knows I should forgive now
Thats how they begin
Youll feel those needles and pins
Somebody stopem now
Stop those needles and pins
Somebody takeem away now
Stop those needles and pins

Overnight Success
If it was in your mind to really cut me down
If it was in your plan to walk me in the ground
You left with him last night then daylight told the rest
And if you planned on hurtin me, youre an overnight success
I couldnt blame someone whod steal your love away
Because I know what Ive lost and all hes gained
Sweetheart last night I know he got the very best
And if you planned on hurtin me, youre an overnight success
Can you handle all youve won from breaking my pride
Will he stay with you and help you spend all the tears Ive cried
Sweetheart I love you so and wish you happiness
And if you planned on hurtin me, youre an overnight success

Going Through The Motions
Standing in line
At the usual time
With a dollar and a dime
Are you going through the motions?
Do you wear the latest style?
Can you guarantee a smile?
Won't you stop and talk awhile?
Are you going through the motions
(Chorus)
And is your day just a reflection of the day before?
Don't you ever stop and wonder if there's something more?
Do you really mean to tell me that you're satisfied?
Are you for real or are you going through the motions?
Heresay, theresay
Everything is fine
Are you running out of time?
Going through the motions
Some things never change
Easy chair, nine to five
Get ahead, stay alive
Are you going through the motions
(Chorus)
Stop and take a look around you
Don't say it isn't there
People going through the motions
Everywhere
I know it isn't easy
It gets tougher every day
But we keep going through the motions
Anyway
Going through the motions

Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now
Looking in your eyes I see a paradise
This world that I've found is too good to be true
Standing here beside you, want so much to give you
This love in my heart that I'm feeling for you

And if this world runs out of lovers

Stop In The Name Of Love
(holland / dozier / holland)
Oh baby Im aware
Of where you go
Each time you leave my door
Watching you walking down the street
Knowing theres another guy you meet
This time before you run to him
Leaving me alone again
Think it over
Havent I been good to you babe
Think it over
Stop in the name of love
Before you break my heart
Stop in the name of love
Before you tear it apart
Im trying hard
Hard to be patient
Wish youd stop
This infatuation
But each time I think of you together
I see myself losing you forever
This time before you leave my heart
And rush back into his arms

Havent I been sweet to you baby

Sorry
We used to be so very happy and we used to have so much fun
And we used to spend our time together, we were as close as anyone
I used to feel your every feeling, I was a part of your every dream
Im not saying that youve thrown me aside, but oh thats just the way that it seems
So if Ive done anything that I shouldnt have done,
Wanna say Im sorry, darling, Im so sorry
And if I said anything that I shouldnt have said, Im sorry, sorry, yeah
Now were just getting used to a brand new situation
And I found out that temptation just wont let ya do good
So we must sit down and talk and be for real to each other
Cause I dont want my love for you to be misunderstood
If Ive done anything that I shouldnt have done,/p>

Can We Just Stop & Talk Awhile
(jose mari chan)
Fancy meeting you alone in the crowd
Couldn't help but notice your smile
While everybody else around us is going about
Can we just stop and talk awhile?
I've been often told our world's growing old
And that friends are harder to find
Do tell me more about yourself
We could share a thought or two
Now who would mind?
Maybe then we could go for a ride
Drive down to the countryside
Get away from the gray
And frenzied hurly-burly of the city life
Early yet to say what lies ahead
It's the first day of the rest of our lives
Can we just stop and talk awhile
Get to know each other
Who are we to know?
Love could be waiting at the end
'round that bend and so
Let's stop and talk awhile
Maybe then we could go for a ride
Drive down to the countryside
Get away from the gray
And frenzied hurly-burly of the city life
Early yet to say what lies ahead
It's the first day of the rest of our lives
Can we just stop and talk awhile
Get to know each other
Who are we to know?

Move Out
I fell in love on the day we met
It was a purely physical thing
We talked and talked I like your mouth
Your minds o.k. but I love your body
We havent slept for days now
Ooh your body
We havent slept for nights
Ooh your body body
Nothings going to stop me
Ooh your body
This is a title fight
Ooh your body body
I made you laugh and you made me cry
I know its wrong but Ill never miss you
You locked me up I dont know why
But theres no law against escaping
It doesnt really matter
What you say to me
Nothings going to stop me
What will be will be
I had a dream I was on a train
I met this girl she was prettier than you
Do what you want but dont wake up
Close your eyes and lets get started
I know a secret locked in ice
Until I die Im taking action
There must be more that we can do
Where am I just when I need you
Wrap me in your body
Ill wrap you everywhere
No ones going to miss me
I know that no-one cares
Ive been in your body
Ive been in your car
You know Ive had enough now
Y know what the reasons are
Move out
Ill leave today going away
Move out
Im ready to go
Move out
Move out
