Imagination (Is A Powerful Deceiver)
So you're tryin' to make connections
You heard whispers in the hall
She'll be out again this evening
When you come around to call
So you dodge the lady killer
Who came creapin' 'cross the floor
Then you're caught up in a whirlwind
You got blown right out the door
Ah yes, it was a whirlwind
Sweet romance was on your side
Er, if you wanna dance on my face
You must tell me why yer lied
Chorus:
Imagination is a powerful deceiver
When you try to believe her just a little too much
Imagination is a powerful deceiver
I'll go out of my mind if I'm losing your touch
I see the look of recognition
So well hidden in your eye
And your peep-show regulations
That just don't seem to apply
Did I see yer in the circus
In the ring without a hand
Now you think that you can curse us
Steal the show and stop the band
Ah, you can follow your dream
Oh but please don't lead me on
Er, if you wanna bleed? in my face
Er, you were here and now you're gone
-chorus-
I'll go out of my mind if I'm losing your touch (repeat x3)

Be Happy
(vs.1)
How can I love somebody else
If I cant love myself enough to know
When its time,
Time to let go
Sing
(chorus)
All I really want
Is to be happy
And to find a love thats mine
It would be so sweet
(repeat)
(vs.2)
I ask for the sign
From the sweet lord above
I know the answer is in front of me
But when you think youre in love
You only see what you wanna see
And all I see is me for you
And you for me
Oh I cannot hide the way I feel inside
(no I dont know why)
I dont know why but every day I wanna cry
(every day I wanna cry)
If I give you one more try
To there rules, will you abide
And if I mean anything to you
Would it make everything all right
(chorus)
I just wanna be so, so, happy
But the answer lies in me
I do believe
That we can be happy
I said I wanna be happy, yeah
(vs.3)
Life is too short
To be tryin to play some games
Now take some time and think about
If its really worth losing me
Why must it be this way
Why do you have to play with my mind
All the time
Help me sing it
All I really want is for me to be happy
Ohhh, just help me sing it
All I really want is for me to be happy
Yeahhhhhhh
All I really want is for me to be happy
Oh, you know I wanna be happy, yeah, yeah

Peaches And Cream
The light was on, and everything I felt was strong
I watched as your mascara ran
Didn't get far on that golden tan
I heard you sigh, but I don't wanna see you cry
You looked just like a walking dream
Sweeter than peaches and cream
[Chorus:]
If you want me let me know
I can show you how
If you've got nowhere to go
I can show you now
I'm yours to tame, and I don't even know your name
I like to touch your perfect skin
I can't stop once I begin
To show you more than I have ever shown before
If you could read what's on my mind
Give me yours and I'll give you mine
[Chorus]
We could be, we could see
More than we know
We should be, we should see
More than we know
And I'd like to know
[Chorus 2x]
Sweeter than peaches and cream (If you want me let me know)
Sweeter than peaches and cream (I can show you how)

When You Tell Me That You Love Me
I wanna feel this way
Longer than time
I wanna know your dreams
And make them mine
I wanna change the world
Only for you
All the impossible
I wanna do
I wanna hold you close under the rain
I wanna kiss your smile
And feel your pain
I know whats beautiful
Looking at you
Here in a world of lies
You are the true
Chorus:
And baby
Everytime you touch me
I become a hero
Ill make you safe no matter where you are
And bring you
Anything you ask for
Nothing is above me
Im shining like a candle in the dark
When you tell me that you love me
I wanna make you see
Just what I was
Show you the loneliness
And what it does
You walked into my life
To stop my tears
Everythings easy now
I have you here

In a world without you
I would always hunger
All I need is your love to make me stronger

Youre the figure of a woman
Youre the mind of a child
A pretty whirlwind
You dont know just what youre doing
When you love me with your smile
A lovely whirlwind
A whirlwind of warm desire
Whirlwind, burning fire woman, realize
That the devil in disguise, is a whirlwind
Born to be running wild and free
Whirlwind
Born to make fools of guys like me
You pick me up like a whirlwind
You put me down like a whirlwind
Each time you touch me Im trouble-bound

The Steal Of The Night
The band had just started when they walked in the door
He sat her at a table and strolled out on the floor
He grabbed the first sweet thang that gave him the eye
And left the door open for the steal of the night
Three dances later she was still in her chair
He was still on the dance floor like he didnt care
So I eased on over, there was no ring in sight
And I found myself facing the steal of the night.
(chorus)
She was the steal of the night,
Oh yeah, she was the steal of the night
He long hair flowing and her jeans so tight
I held her close and it felt so right
She was the steal of the night
Oh yeah, she was the steal of the night
He left her lonely and the pickings were right
She was the steal of the night
We danced every slow one the band could play
Was it ever this easy for ole jesse james
Had the gold in my hands and the banker was blind
Just inches away from the steal of the night
When the band stopped playing we walked to the car
As I closed the door he ran out of the bar
Saw him shaking his fist under the parking lot light
As I strolled away with the steal of the night
(repeat chorus)
(repeat chorus and fade out)

Your life is on a throne
Your life is on a throne
Of dust weathered-stone
A whirlwind battered face
With a mountain to climb
Of the time
Of the time
Of the time
Your voices a busted microphone
Howling, babe I'm losing my mind
I live like a turtle and this is my home
By your side
Your life is on a throne
Of dust weathered-stone
A whirlwind battered face
With a mountain to climb
Of the time
Of the time
Of the time
Darling, and
Sincerity's like a summer's rain
Falling, dripping off the leaf
Off a soul— born old
Dying young
It's not my fault darling
I don't show I care
I'm waking from a snare
Boastful wisps of love
Come crashing down like webs
Clinging still to me
But your voices a busted microphone
Howling, babe I'm losing my mind
Your life is on a throne
Of dust weathered-stone
A whirlwind battered face
With a mountain to climb
Of the time
Of the time
Of the time
And I'm losing my mind…

It Must Be Imagination
by Kenny Loggins & Tom Snow
When the feeling isn't right
They say you see it in a lovers eye
But I'm wide awake tonight
'N I'm looking for a reason why
It doesn't show
Still somehow I know
Tell me that it just ain't so
Say I made the whole thing up
It must be imagination
Why can't I forget it
God, you'd think I'd know better
It must be imagination
Gone completely out of my mind
It must be imagination
Tearin' me apart
'N breakin' my heart
You can say what is real
You can tell me if I'm in a dream
'Cause I know what I feel
But I don't know what to believe
Turn on the night light
Even if it takes us all night
I gotta be sure by daylight
If I've made this whole thing up
It must be imagination
Tell me if I'm right
'Cause it's changing my life
It must be imagination
Everybody knows
There ain't no way to fight it
It must be imagination
Breakin' my heart
'N tearing me apart
If I'm only dreamin'
Then I'm cryin' in my sleep
You should be shakin' me
Why ain't you wakin' me up?
It must be imagination
God I must be losin' my mind
It must be imagination
Does anybody know
Is there anyway to fight it?
It must be imagination
All in my mind, all in my mind
It must be imagination
If you wanna go, I just got to know
It must be imagination
Oooh tell me what's the problem
Why you wanna go on breakin' my heart?

Hot & Wet
[Verse 1:]
I wanna show you how I feel
Don't hold back
Heres my love
Baby you're the one for me
How can we get down tonight
No more game lets spend some time
Baby won't you give it to me
Jus give it to me baby
[Chorus:]
You don't know what
You do to me
The way you touch baby
([Slim:] Girl I'm tired of playing games are you ready)
I love it when you're on top of it
So spread it
([Slim:] Won't u just give it to me, girl we can do it)
Hot and wet
Girl u make me wanna sweat
When u touch me like that
Girl you know I wanna give it to you
[2x]
[Verse 2:]
Baby now it's getting late
Don't stop now
I can't wait
To show u belong to me
Know how I like it
Take your time
Close your eyes
Let me show you what real love should be
[Repeat Chorus]
[Ludacris:] now baby you don't work if u work it
Tweak it twork it
I feel like your every imperfection is perfect
Luda yea what you heard is true
I'll make u do things you ain't even know you can do
Got them weak in the knees cuz my back is strong
And you wonder why your girls wanna tag along
Cuz them birds are jealous
My words are embellish
Plus they heard I kiss every curve and crevice
I'm too hot to handle
I rock your mantle
When I play 112 and light 16 candles
Deep sea fishing in your favorite position
Everytime you moan I pay close attention
Flip 'em like a pancake
Show me something
Or we can bring in your vibrating tongue ring
Lets mountain climb 'til we reach the peak
The technique will make u sweat
But don't sweat the technique

I Dont Wanna Face It
Okay, lets go!
Un, deux, ein, zwei, hickle pickle!
Say youre looking for a place to go,
Where nobody knows your name.
Youre looking for oblivion
With one eye on the hall of fame.
I dont wanna face it, oh no,
I dont wanna face it, no, no, no, no.
Well, I can dish it out but I just cant take it.
Say youre looking for some peace and love,
Leader of a big old band.
You wanna save humanity
But its people that you just cant stand.
I dont wanna face it, oh no,
I dont wanna face it, no, no, no, no.
Well, I can sing for my supper but I just cant make it.
Ow!
Well, now youre looking for a world of truth,
Tryin to find a better way.
The time has come to see yourself,
You always look the other way.
I dont wanna face it, oh no,
I dont wanna face it, no, no, no, no.
Well, I can see the promised land and I know I can make it.
I dont wanna face it, oh no,
I dont wanna face it, oh no,
I dont wanna face it, oh no,
I dont wanna face it.
Ah-ooh!
I dont wanna face it.
I just cant face it no more!
Evry time I look in the mirror I dont see anybody there!

Dont Stop The Love
Hey baby, whatever you want,
Whatever you need, its yours girl.
But whatever you do,
Please dont stop the love
Some say that Im professional,
cause I know how to handle mine.
Be still, be cool and wait awhile,
And Ill show you what some say is right.
Now dont get the wrong impression,
I dont do this all of the time,
But when I see you, all I wanna do,
Is make you call my name by the candlelight.
Chorus:
Dont stop the love
If the speakers blown,
Even if we aint alone, I am into you.
Dont stop the love if it feels good,
Just like I knew it would, I am into you.
Dont stop the love if the phone rings,
Ill do anything, I am into you.
Dont stop the love for anything,
Ill do everything, I am into you
Some people like to talk a lot,
About what they say they can do.
But I wanna be the first to sit you down, show and prove.
Now dont get the wrong idea,
I dont do just anyone,
But when I see you all I wanna do,
Is make sweet love til the morning sun.

Just relax and let me do my job,
If this is a full time baby,
Im never taking off as long as your here.

The Flat Horizon
(wang chung)
I wanna paint your portrait in bright color
I wanna paint the lines in red and blue
I wanna make your eyes appear like starlings
Saying, darling, I love you!
I wanna set your face upon a landscape
I wanna show the love and toil and sweat
I wanna show your beauty like a crystal
In an all-night launderette
Chorus:
Oh this line is the flat horizon
And you are the shape on the left
Oh this line is the flat horizon
And this is the sun in the sky
Oh this line is the flat horizon
And makes the great divide
Between heaven and angels
And earth and men
I wanna show what lies beneath the surface
In little squares of purple, green and gold
So everyone can see their own reflection
In the mirror of your soul
I wanna paint your arrogance and beauty
I wanna paint the way you laugh at me
I wanna paint the world in which I see you
Fixed for all eternity
Repeat chorus
I wanna paint your portrait in bright color
I wanna paint your personality
I wanna show the world just how I see you
I wanna show the world just how I see you
You know that only I can guarantee you
