Win Or Lose
Jerry peters & jean hancock
I know that Im afraid of lve
The tolls seems very steep
Your goals so uncontrollable
Impossible to keep
Despite the songs of lucky ones
Those very special few
Cant right the wrongs that often come
No matter what we do
I imagine that the feelings close to none
All that passion running rampant sounds like fun
But when the trouble starts
Ive heard of broken hearts
A hackneyed phrase-but one that I suspect is true
And so I wonder will I win or will I lose
Most come down, familiar ground a safer veiw
No more concerned with if they win or if they lose
The journey must be made
The hand is dealt, it must be played
It comes to all of us, we cant escape our dues
But Im still holding back
I want my heart intact
Until the time that Im unable to refuse
Inconsequential if I stumble up the rocks
Or catapulted if I shoot right to the top
When I on love depend
My only question then
...is will I lose or will I win
So I wonder, yes I wonder

You Can't Lose At Love (Crush Demo)
You can lose at cards
You can lose your keys
You can lose the house or lose the lease
You can lose your car, you can lose the race
You can lose your mind or lose your faith
Take a look around and hear what I've gotta say
You can't lose at love
No, you can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
Chose anything you can dream of
No, you can't lose at love
We could lose the plot
Or we could lose our way
But I ain't going to lose
These ain't good games we're playing
Let me make you an offer too good to refuse
No, you can't lose at love
No, you can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
Chose anything you can dream of
But you can't lose at love
Now we just might roll a seven, these ain't loaded dice
We'll never get to heaven from this driveway tonight
You've heard a million promises that's never come through
Baby I'm telling you we're due
You can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
Chose anything you can dream of
But baby, you can't lose at love
Take a chance on me
Cause you can't lose at love
Take a chance on me
No, you can't lose at love
Take a chance on me
You can't lose at love
No, you can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
You can't lose
You can't lose

No Holding Back
(r. stewart, j. creagan, k. savigar)
A friend of mine called up said i finally had some luck
Could I have a minute of your time
I met a girl last night and try as I might
I cant get her off of my mind
She walked through the room and right then I knew
I finally found somebody for me
But to tell you the truth I dont know what to do
Should I go ahead or wait and see
I said give it all you got no holding back
Let a light in your soul
Aint it better to lose in love than to never love at all
Than to never love at all
Now Im the kind of guy whos normally quite shy
On romance I dont know a thing
But when she led me to the floor Id never danced before
Suddenly my feet had wings
I know that she wants me I want her too
But Im so confused I cant think straight
I feel so alive but on the other side
Should I go ahead or should I wait
I said give it all you got no holding back
Let a light in your soul
Aint it better to lose in love than to never love at all
Aint it better to lose in love than to never love at all
Than to never love at all
So when the music starts to flow from your hearts
Like the coming of an early spring
When the river starts to flow between you soul to soul
May no man ever come between
Die in her arms if she wants you to
Be thankful for each passing day
When your eyes collide let your spirits fly
And pray to God its here to stay
And I said give it all you got no holding back
Let a light in your soul
Aint it better to lose in love than to never love at all
Give it all you got no holding back
Let a light in your soul
Aint it better to lose in love than to never love at all
Than to never love at all
Than to never, never love at all
Aint it better to lose in love than never love at all

One More Sign
No, Im not gonna to hide my feelings
Couldnt if I tried
No, Im not holding them inside
Holding back is so close to stealing
Though we both have tried
We could lose it all if we lied.
Someday its later than
The feelings we have now
Its of the ground
Ive always played around
But now I dont know how.
Listen easy because Im saying
What I mean this time
Sharing words I always said were mine
I was breezy, now Im swaying
Like the tree we climbed
Asking you to give me one more sign.

No Name #6
You've got the wrong equation
Your figures fell so you make more up
All's false in celebration
If only you could just change your luck
This time we can't lose
This time we can't lose
You're pushing nine you're doing pretty
But you're playing with the sound turned down
We drive along between the cows and cotton
Saying with the stars all around
This time we can't lose
This time we can't lose
The moon is in a sickle shape
You know you're only really happy just for now
Looked at the city scape
Well there's a planet that'll catch you and drag you back down
This time we can't lose
This time we can't lose
This time we can't lose
This time we can't lose
Can't lose
Can't lose

Heartbeat
I don't wanna lose myself in love again,
But my heartbeat keeps on a hammering, yeah.
I met a little cutie back in sixty-
six, She used to tie you up
And beat you with a walking stick.
I said, 'Mama, call a doctor you
must be sick!'
She told me that's the only way I
get my kicks.
I don't wanna lose myself in love again,
But my heartbeat keeps on a hammering.
I been around the world about a
time and again,
I met a little chick in an opium
den.
She put a spell on me that'd freeze
a man,
I said, 'help me, save me', but she
did it again.
I don't wanna lose myself in love again,
But my heartbeat keeps on a hammering,
yeah, ok.
Oh, oh, oh, yeah.
I met a little lady just yesterday,
Lord, she loves me in a special way.
She put coffee in my tea and she love to say,
'I wanna hold you, I wanna keep you, baby,
Now don't be afraid'.
I don't wanna lose myself in love again,
But my heartbeat keeps on a hammering, yeah.
I don't wanna lose; I don't wanna lose,
I don't wanna lose;
I don't wanna lose myself in love again, yeah.
No, no, lord no.
I don't wanna lose myself in love again,
But my heartbeat, yes my beating heart,
My heartbeat keeps on hammering.

You Cant Lose A Broken Heart
James p. johnson / flournoy e. miller
Dont lose your head
Then lose your guy
You cant lose a broken heart
If you ever break up
Then try to make up
Its tough to make a brand new start
Take a walk
Think it over
While strolling neath the moon
Dont say things in december
Youll regret in june
Ware your remark
Before you speak
Or you may be sorry soon,
Dont be eratic
Be diplomatic
To keep your hearts in tune
Cruel harsh words
Often spoken
Will upset your applecart
So dont lose your head
Then lose your guy
Cus, you cant lose a broken heart
No, you cant lose a broken heart!

Somebody Out There
Who cares what I'm gonna do
Without you, without you
Who cares if I blow a few
Without you, without you
I go run after dark
I know you heard it all before
I'm doing fine without you
On my own
What do you expect of me
You used to run, used to be
Got my own life without you
(Now I know)
I've made it through
I paid my dues
There's somebody out there
And black and blue
And so confused
There's somebody out there
And so a few are born to lose
Getting me nowhere
I've made it through
I paid my dues
There's somebody out there
Who cares what you're gonna be
You're without me, you're without me
Who cares if you're coming clean?
You're without me, you're without me
You go run after dark
I think I heard it all before
I'm doing fine without you
(On my own)
What am I supposed to say
I'm used to all the games you play
I'm doing all right without you
(Now I know)
I've made it through
I paid my dues
There's somebody out there
And black and blue
And so confused
There's somebody out there
And all of you are born to lose
Getting me nowhere
I've made it through
I paid my dues
There's somebody out there
It's been weighing on my mind
And taking up my day
Then I opened up my eyes
Nothing left to say
I wanna take the time to find
Can you help me on my way
So if you push me down in time
I've made it through
I paid my dues
There's somebody out there
And black and blue
And so confused
There's somebody out there
And all of you are born to lose
Getting me nowhere
I've made it through
I paid my dues
There's somebody out there
There's somebody out there
There's somebody out there

You Didn't Have As Much To Lose
I can't believe it's come to this
Two broken hearts, one goodbye kiss
Is this all that's left of me and you
You seem to take it all in stride
While I'm crumbling inside
Letting go is hard for me to do
But if all my love is easy to refuse
Then I guess you just don't have as much to lose
'Cause I'm losing everything that ever meant anything
How can all of our yesterdays mean nothing to you
If all my love's so easy to refuse
Then I guess you just don't have as much to lose
If all my love's so easy to refuse
Then I guess you just don't have as much to lose
I can't believe it's come to this

Dont Let Me Lose This Dream
(aretha franklin / ted white)
If I lose this dream
I dont know what Im gonna do
If I lose this dream
Im dreaming about for me and you
If it goes away
I might as well hang it up
cause I dont know
If I have the heart or mind
To make it true
Or help it grow
And I only know, I only know, I only know
If I lose this dream
Its goodbye love and happiness, yes
Youre the one I need
I dont want a love
Thats second best
Thereve been all of my life
I wanted to do
That made me blue
Help me hold onto this dream
For sometimes dreams often come true
And they all come true, they all come true
For me and you
Wait a minute baby
Dont let me lose this dream
Baby, baby hold on
Dont let me lose my dream, no
Baby, baby be strong
You say that a-you believe that what I say is true
And that Im the one and only girl for you
Just tell me
That no matter what the people say
Youre in my corner all the way
And I wont lose this dream
Baby, baby hold on
Dont let me lose my dream, no
Baby, baby be strong
Dont let me lose this dream
Baby, baby hold on
Dont let me lose, lose my dream
Baby, baby hold on
Dont let me, ooh baby

No Time To Lose
The other family get no sleep
Somewhere down the love got to take and keep
Think about the future, nothing in the past
God, things never last
Come on, come on, come on
Take your love
Get down, get down, get down
Down the road
It ain't no lie
You're hurting
And you don't know why
No time to lose
We get no time to lose
No time to lose
No time to lose
Ever had the feeling something's going wrong
Hanging round a lover where you don't belong
Waiting for a reason, lookin' for a clue
But you know what you gotta do
Come on, come on, come on
Take your love
Get down, get down, get down
Down the road
It ain't no lie
You're hurting
And you don't know why
You got no time to lose
We get no time to lose
No time to lose
No time to lose
Your brothers at the bar
There girls in the car
Your sister's on the telephone
that ain't low
Your mother's going blue
Your dad is going grey
There's nothing here for you to stay
Come on, come on, come on
Take your love
Get down, get down, get down
Get down that road, get down you
It ain't no lie
You're hurting
And you don't know why
No time to lose
No time to lose
You gonna have to choose
You go and shake the blues
Oh oh you got no time to lose
You got to choose
No time to lose

Can't Stand To Lose
John Cowan, Rusty Young
Warner Chappell (BMI) / Warner Chappell/Music Cabin Music (ASCAP)
If you can't stand to lose
Don't stand in the way.
Hey don't you think it's time to say?
Tell her the truth now, don't be afraid.
Tell her she's the only one
You can't stand to lose.
It's alright if you're feelin' like
There's something that you need to say.
'Cause the only words that she hasn't heard
Are the very ones that stand in your way.
So just let your heart tell her what's on your mind
Even though you're afraid of what she might find.
If you can't stand to lose
Don't stand in the way.
Hey don't you think it's time to say?
Tell her the truth now, don't be afraid.
Tell her she's the only one

Lose It All
oh no....
Take what you need
cause I can't hold my breath
say what you feel
cause I got nothing left
I made a promise to myself last night
I'm gonna keep it
if its wrong or right
And if I lose it all
there be nothing left to lose
and I would take the fall
cause knowing you are out there breathing its so wonderful its a chance I take even if I break and I lose it all if I lose it all......
wouldn't matter anyway
Don't change a thing
perfect as you are
Time has a way
time is all I got
If my heart should shatter watching you
then there's one thing I would have to prove
And if I lose it all
there be nothing left to lose
and I would take the fall
cause knowing you are out there breathing its so wonderful its a chance I take even if I break and I lose it all if I lose it all......
wouldn't matter anyway
Heaven will be waiting
when I fall into your open arms
I believe you'll find me there
you'll find me there
And if I lose it all
there be nothing left to lose
and I would take the fall (take the fall) cause knowing you are out there breathing its so wonderful its a chance I take even if I break and I lose it all if I lose it all......

I Dont Wanna Lose You
Omen of a certain age
They learn to rely and judge all his responses
Having played the mating game
She doesnt waste time cause all that she wants is
Really honest emotions
Ones he cant help but show
Though I hardly know your name I know about love and I know
Chorus
I dont wanna lose you
I dont even wanna say goodbye
I just wanna hold on
To this true love true love
Women who have made mistakes
Are a little afraid they dont like taking chances
She will play the waiting game
Shes never impressed by those manly advances
I know Ive only just met you
Maybe I should know better
But when you look at me that way
Theres something inside thats so right
Chorus
I dont wanna lose you
I dont even wanna say goodbye
I just wanna hold on
To this true love true love
I dont wanna lose you
And I always wanna feel this way
Cause everytime Im with you I feel true love true love
Tell me youre real
Youre not pretending
Lets make a deal
coz my hearts depending on you

The Whalers Dues
Money speaks. soft hearts lose. the truth only whispers.
Its the whalers dues.
Ive been running on diesel. been running on coal.
Running on borrowed time, if truths to be told.
Two whales in the ocean, cruising the night
Search for each other before we turn out their light.
Been accused of deep murder on the north atlantic swell
But I have three hungry children and a young wife as well.
And behind stand generations of hard hunting men
Who raised a glass to the living, and went killing again.
Are you with me?
Money speaks, soft hearts lose. the truth only whispers.
Now pay the whalers dues.
Can you forgive me?
Now Im old and I sit land-locked in a back-country jail
To reflect on all of my sins and the death of the whale.
Send me back down the ages. put me to sea once again
When the oceans were full --- yes, and men would be men.
Can you forgive me?
