Anything But Strong
Why do you hurt yourself?
You do it very well
You do it so politely
That you couldnt even tell
When everything has changed
You think youre not to blame
How come you keep on talking
When the whole thing feels so strange? ....
But seeing
Is not the same as believing
When everything goes wrong
Youre anything but strong
Its all bittersweet
Outside in the street
The grass is growing greener
Underneath your feet
We come and go
The deep water flows
Tiny leaves from smaller seeds
To tall trees do grow
But wanting
Is not the same thing as needing
Theres no need to pretend
You cant turn back again
And loving
Is so different to keeping
The hurting that we send
Is so difficult to mend
[hold on to the good things]
[that keep you from falling down]
[hold on to the good things]
[that keep you from falling down]
How my heart aches
More than I can take
What are we really learning
When we make the same mistakes?
Where is your hope?
Its all gone up in smoke
You used to be so funny
Now its just the same old joke
And laughing
Is so very close to crying
When theres nothing to defend
It gets you in the end
And living
Is so very close to dying
You struggle on and on
To find where you belong
Where do you belong?

Just Pretend
(words & music by flett - fletcher)
Just pretend, Im holding you
And whispering things soft and low
And think of me, how its gonna be,
Just pretend I didnt go
When I walked away, I heard you say
If you need me, you know what to do
I knew it then, Id be back again
Just pretend Im right there with you
And Ill come flying to you, oh yes
All the crying is true
Oh, I will hold you and love you again
But until then, well just pretend
Oh, its funny but I cant recall the things
We said or why youre crying
But now I know it was wrong to go
I belong here by your side

Back Where You Belong
I felt so sure of the love that we shared
There was no reason on earth to be scared
Then I heard a rumor, it started to grow
Slowly but surely, the truth began to show
Then I started wonderin, as I picked up the phone
And a man started askin, if you were at home
You treat me like a fool, but youre so wrong
Im gonna send you back where you belong
I put my trust in you, but I was wrong
Im gonna send you back where you belong
You treat me like a fool, but youre so wrong
Im gonna send you back where you belong
I never had any doubt in my mind
Now you have shown me, love can make you blind
Back where you belong, back where you belong
Back where you belong, back where you belong
Back where you belong, back where you belong
Back where you belong, back where you belong
Back where you belong, back where you belong
Back where you belong...

Keeping Me Alive
They said love was a thing of the past
That these days nothing ever lasts
This old world is movin too fast
Well sometimes we ride around
She plays her radio up loud
If I was sad, well, Im happy now
And it feels so good to know
I got you where you belong
Here in my heart, right by my side
Honey youre getting me by
Yeah youre keeping me alive
I got a job, I work hard
These days the money dont go very far
Its hard enough keeping gas in the car
But sometimes we ride around
She plays the radio up load
If I was sad, well, Im happy now
Yeah and it feels so good to know
I got you where you belong
Here in my heart, right by my side
Honey youre getting me by
Yeah youre keeping me alive
And it feels so good to know
I got you where you belong
Here in my heart, right by my side
Honey youre getting me by
Yeah youre keeping me alive
Yeah youre keeping me alive
Yeah youre keeping me alive

Ill Give You My Skin
Well you
You can sit in your highchairs
Highchairs are for children
You can sit in your highchairs and laugh
Ill give you my best face
Ill give you my freedom
Ill give you my feet and my hands
Im keeping my eyes
Open open open to the field
Hold your dances there
Take the crop
Share the yield
You can join us together
Break us apart
A wound in the skin is a break in the heart
You can coast on your laughter
High shelf your heart
But laughters for healing
Not tearing apart
Im keeping my eyes
Open to the fields
You can hold your dances there
Take the crop
Share the yield
Not a soul is lost
But collapse in the walls
You can dance in the dust
You can walk it off walk walk it off
If youre falling youre falling
Come calling to me
Falling falling
Ill give you my skin
I will give you my skin
Im keeping my eyes
Open to the field
(if youre falling youre falling come calling to me)
You can hold your dances here
(if youre falling youre falling come calling to me)
Take the crop, share the yield
(if youre falling youre falling come calling to me)
Im keeping my eyes
(if youre falling youre falling come calling to me)
Open to the field
(if youre falling youre falling come calling to me)
Hold your dances there
(if youre falling youre falling come calling to me)
Take the crop share the yield
If youre falling youre falling come calling to me
If youre falling youre falling come calling to me
If youre falling youre falling come calling to me

I Could Feel The Whole World Turn Around Underneath Me
When I first saw you this strange kind of feeling set my head a-reeling
Like I hit the ceiling.
The same thing happened to me then, baby.
Something kind of crazy and everything went hazy.
Lightning and thunder shook the ground.
And I could feet the whole world turn round underneath me.
I could feet the whole world turn round.
My, have you never been set on fire?
Burning with desire growing higher and higher.
Like on a funny fair big wheel stopping when you are to topping,
The you feel it dropping
Rising and heaven falling down.
And I could feet the whole world turn round underneath me.
I could feet the whole world turn round.
I took my breath as though Ive been running.
Quite completely stunning, holy, overcoming.
And in a funny way it seemed frightening.
Tension and a hardening
Thunder and the lightning
And Ive grown the singer who wrote that song.
And I could feet the whole world turn round underneath me.
I could feet the whole world turn round when youre near me.
I could feet the whole world turn round.
I could feet the whole world turn round underneath me.
I could feet the whole world turn round when youre near me.
I could feet the whole world turn round.

Losing You Feels Good
(lonnie, charlotte & herbert wilson)
I tried to hold our love together
But you let us fall apart
Now your leaving me for someone else
Taking whats left of my heart
But this time the pain dont feel that same
Im not aching like I should
cause loving you has hurt so bad
That losing you feels good
I know youll come back running to me
When the thrill is dead and gone
And you realize the love you need
Was right here all along
When you try to restore what we had before
Theres no way you ever could
cause loving you has hurt so bad
That losing you feels good
Dont get me wrong Ill still long to hold you every night
But my heart cant take another break
When theres no relief in sight
I guess youre wonderin why I havent cried
cause usually I would
But loving you has hurt so bad
That losing you feels good
If there was a way to make you stay
I wouldnt if I could
cause loving you has hurt so bad
That losing you feels good

Its My Neighborhood
Dont get too close to me,
Dont overreact,
Youre not the enemy as a matter of fact,
You got your pretty face and you got any name you wore
Gonna stick by you, gonna stumble over what to do.
I want it, good lovin wanna be your plaything.
I want it, good lovin bring out the beast in me.
I want it, good lovin wanna make your heart sing,
In the shadows we are free, and I walk you through it.
Its my neighborhood,
Thats where I belong.
Youre in trouble if you
Disagree with me.
Its my neighborhood,
Thats where I belong,
You find out why.
Its my neighborhood,

Youre in trouble if you
Disagree with me.
Its my neighborhood,

Verse 2:
So many tell you that you cant win
Its a battle if youre lonely
Or if youre starting over
Two-fisted and fast on your feet
And you know theres something more
And the city kicks it out of you and...
I want it, good lovin wanna be your plaything.
I want it, good lovin bring out the worst in me.
I want it, good lovin wanna make your heart sing,
In the shadows we are free, and I walk you through it.
Its my neighborhood,
Thats where I belong.
Youre in trouble if you
Disagree with me.
Its my neighborhood,
Thats where I belong,

Sad Situation
When you wake, Ill be gone
Just a space, an empty chair
And I know, I was wrong
Just one more time, then Ill be gone
Who stopped the sky from falling?
Who held you back from harm?
Who stood as walls were falling?
A call still guides us on
Chorus:
Its a sad situation
And no ones to blame
Its a sad situation
Now youre gone
Its a sad situation
Which someday may change
Its a sad situation
Now youre gone
In the dawn, turn the page
We stand alone, as the lions rage
I suppose well move on
A fight of minds, that still breathe strong
Who stopped the sky from falling?
Who held you back from harm?
Who held you close when hurting?
Who keeps the doves of hope?

Take Me Back
(billy cross)
Producer for bonnie: jim steinman
You said its over now
Its just not right
You said theres a better place for you to be
Its not with me
Then you turned and walked away
I cant believe what I see
And I cant go to sleep at night when I think of how it used to be
She cant give you what Ive got
And she cant stop your pain
And she cant love you the way I do
God I want you back again
Maybe she could try with money
Or she could buy you clothes
But baby when its dark and youre home at night
Does she ever hold you close
She takes you out in style
She treats you right
She gives you all the things I never could, shes so good
But dont you think of me
Baby late at night
And I just cant take it boy, together we could be so right
She cant give you what Ive got
And she cant stop your pain
And she cant love you the way I do
God I want you back again
Maybe she could try with money
Or she could buy you clothes
But baby when its dark and youre home at night
Does she ever hold you close
Take me back
(ooh youre gonna need me)
(ooh youre gonna need me)
Take me back
(ooh youre gonna need me)
All those things we did before
Whatever happened to them
And all those things Ive been living for
Gotta start em all over again
You said it couldnt last
That we were meant to part
A guy like you and a girl like me didnt stand a chance - not from the start
But then you looked at me
I had to ask you why
As I see and try to find out why you left me for those hungry eyes
She cant give you what Ive got
And she cant stop your pain
And she cant love you the way I do
God I want you back again
Maybe she could try with money
Or she could buy you clothes
But baby when its dark and youre home at night
Does she ever hold you close
Take me back
Ooh youre gonna take me
Take me back
Ooh youre gonna take me
Take me back
Ooh youre gonna take me
Take me back...

Way Of Life
You told me about yourself,
How you once lived with someone else
The way of life that you had tried
The way they hurt you deep inside
Thats the only thing about it
I cant find anyone to doubt it
Thats the only thing about it
I cant find anyone to doubt it
Who do you think youre talking to?
When I look at you I know youre lying
All you say and do
Seems to fall apart and leave you crying
But I thought I couldve seen you here today
But you leave me standing each and every way
You told me a pack of lies
That I cant even reason with
Failure of your moral code
The kind of things that I cant give
Thats the only thing about it
I cant find anyone to doubt it
Thats the only thing about it
I cant find anyone to doubt it
Who do you think youre talking to?
When I look at you I know youre lying
All you say and do
Seems to fall apart and leave you crying
Who do you think youre talking to?
When I look at you I know youre lying
All you say and do
Seems to fall apart and leave you crying

Take Me To A Dream
Love of my you are
Sunlight, my shining star
All of the world to me
All I could ever need
Lately I can feel youve grown away from me
And inside I pray its not too late to find a remedy
Dont wanna live a lie
I dont wanna say goodbye
So how can I start again
And how will my heart mend
Here I am alone with only memories
So Im searching just to find a way to keep you here with me
So I close my eyes
And I go back in time
When our love was strong
Before our hearts went wrong
I keep holding on to how it used to be
So lay me down and take me to a dream
Dreams that youre holding me
Dreams that wont ever be
Visions of loving you
Wanting to make them true
I find myself believing youll come back to me
Cause Im trying not to feel the pain, that loneliness can bring
So I close my eyes
And I go back in time
When our love was strong
Before our hearts went wrong
I keep holding on to how it used to be
So lay me down and take me to a dream
Its so hard to make it through the day without you
So I pray for night to dream youre here with me, with me
So I close my eyes
And I go back in time
When our love was strong
Before our hearts went wrong
I keep holding on to how it used to be
So lay me down and take me to a dream
So lay me down and take me to a dream

The Way
The way your heart beats when I hold you tight
The way you sigh when we kiss goodnight
The way the wind blows through the trees
Well hey, thats the way you belong to me
The way you warm me baby when Im cold
The way you make me want you body and soul
The way the rivers run to the sea
Well hey, thats the way you belong to me
The way you soothe me when Im in pain
The way you make the blood rush in my veins
The way the winds rush through the trees
Well hey, thats the way you belong to me
When I lose faith you take my hand
The way you make me feel like Im a man
The way the sun belongs to the sea
Well hey, thats the way you belong to me
The way you make me feel like I belong
And if I could girl though I know itd be wrong
Id lock you deep inside
till the last rains fall
And hide you from the emptiness of it all
Sometimes at night I lie awake
I pull you close and feel each breath you take
The way the rivers belong to the seas
Well hey, thats the way you belong to me
Well hey, thats the way you belong to me

Sing Along (Sad Song)
Ive an emptiness inside
That can only be describe
As a sad song
With the paint all peeling off
All the world I used to know
Its a sad song
He gave my life a meaning
When all hope inside had die
The he took the meaning back
And left me feeling oh disillusioned
He just walked out of my world
Like youd walk out of a room
Oh you sad song
Sing along with my song
If youre lost and youre alone
Sing along if your song
Has theme of love gone wrong
Sing along and belong
Dont hold back were growing strong
Sing along sing your song
Sing your sad your sad sad song
Aint it strange the way life goes
First youre used and then disposed
Like a sad song
Saying love was just a word
Used to keep you hanging there
Like a sad song
You swallowed all those promises
So called upon you are
And following his footsteps
No matter just how far must follow
He just walked out of a room
Oh you sad song
Sing along with my song
If youre lost and youre alone
Sing along if your song
Has theme of love gone wrong
Sing along and belong
Dont hold back were growing strong
Sing along sing your song
Sing your sad you sad sad song...

You Might Recall
What was it you said to me
Back in the days when things looked fine
bout how we would be together
Until we left the earth behind
Oh, its funny how things can change
Cos there was a time I thought Id be the one
Whod leave and start again
But now Id stay forever
Ooh my hopes are as the leaves upon the water
Just sunk in the night
And though I know you couldnt care, you oughtta
Ah, the end of a life
Or maybe when youre older, and youre thinking back
You might recall
Now did I act carefully, did I do right?
Or were we meant to be, all of our lives
In love and harmony, all of our lives?
So now, take my hand
Come, hold me closely
As near as you can
Believing all that we could be
And all that we have been
And all that we are
Everyday seems summertime
The river flow with wine
Ooh when you were here with me
I wish wed stayed that way forever
Oh my hopes are as the leaves upon the water
Just sunk in the night
And though I know you couldnt care, you oughtta
Ah, the end of a life
Or maybe when youre older, and youre thinking back
Well you might recall
Now did I act carefully, did I do right?
Or were we meant to be, all of our lives
In love and harmony, all of our lives?
So now, take my hand
Come, hold me closely
As near as you can
Believing all that we could be
And all that we have been
And all that we are
Oh my hopes were as the leaves upon the water
Ah, sunk in the night
And though I know you couldnt care, you oughtta

Hold On
Written by: myles goodwyn
Why do I speak if no one hears
Who can I turn to if youre not there
And why do I carry on the way that I do
Why do I question myself like this over you
cos trouble and sorrow - its all I can feel
Theres so much confusion it seems so unreal
Hold on - to our own selves be true
Hold on hold on
Hold on - lets see this love through
Hold on hold on
Why do we have to act so foolishly
Hurting one another - you and me
All we have to do is try more now and then
And whos to say that we cant make things right again
Heartaches and sorrow its bringin us down
Theres so much to give lets turn this love around
Hold on - to our own selves be true
Hold on hold on
Hold on - lets see this love through
Hold on hold on
Hold on just hold on to me
Hold on hold on
Hold on you know our love will be
Hold on
I dont wanna hear that loving you is wrong
I only know these words will have to make us strong
Its the things we say but more the things we do
And what I wanna say is baby I love you
Heartaches and sorrow its bringin us down
Theres so much to give lets turn this love around
Hold on - to our own selves be true
Hold on hold on
Hold on - lets see this love through
Hold on hold on

Somewhere Out There
Last time I talked to you,
You were lonely and out of place.
You were looking down on me,
Lost out in space.
Laid underneath the stars,
Strung out and feeling brave.
Watch the riddles glow,
Watch them float away.
Down here in the atmosphere,
Garbage and city lights,
You gotta save your tired soul,
You gotta save our lives.
Turn on the radio,
To find you on sattellite,
Im waiting for the sky to fall,
Im waiting for a sign.
All we are is all so far.
Youre falling back to me,
The star that I cant see.
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.
Youre falling out of reach,
Defying gravity,
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.
Hope you remember me,
When youre homesick and need a change.
I miss your purple hair,
I miss the way you taste.
I know youll come back someday,
On a bed of nails awake.
Im praying that you dont burn out,
Or fade away.
All we are is all so far
Youre falling back to me,
The star that I cant see.
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.
Youre falling out of reach,
Defying gravity,
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.
Youre falling back to me,
The star that I cant see.
I know youre out there, oh.
Youre falling out of reach,
Defying gravity....
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.
Youre falling back to me,
The star that I cant see.
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.
Youre falling out of reach,
Defying gravity,
I know youre out there,
Somewhere out there.
Youre falling back to me.
Well I know,

Youre falling out of reach.

Hold On
(written by natalie cole, marvin yancy and kevin yancy)
You know, of all the things in the world Id miss
It would probably be music and love
They say you dont know what youve got til its gone
Thats so true
Even though we still take it for granted
And I used to be like that but not anymore
cause I found out what love really means
Love means happiness and dedication
Love will sometimes bring complications
But you must have faith and a whole lot of trust
Most of all you can never give up just
(hold on, hold on)
Hold on to your good thing, yeah
(hold on, hold on) forget about the small things
(hold on, hold on) do it for love, do it for love
And remember that love is a feeling
But its also an action, yes
Youve got to give sometime
If you want to get back some, well
And when all the kings horses
And even all the kings men
Cant put it together again
That is exactly when youve got to
(hold on, hold on) hold on to what youve got
(hold on, hold on)
Its the little things that mean alot
(hold on, hold on) do it for love, do it for love
In spite of everything, no matter what
Youve got to h-o-l-d on (you gotta hold on)
Hold on, hmm, hmm, hmm, ooh, oh, oh
Youre so hard headed
cause you feel that youre right
Well, tell me how you gonna feel
In the middle of the night
All alone, all alone
I know, I know
It doesnt matter whos right or wrong
If you feel so inclined
To blame that shame on someone else
Ooh, stop and think about it
Point the finger at yourself
Ooh, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo
Hold on to your good thing (hold on)
Forget about the small (hold on) things
(hold on) and hold on
Hold on, oh hold on (hold on)
Real tight in spite of everything
Hold on (hold on)
When you feel like walking out that door

Take Me To The Top
We go back a long long way
And it seems like yesterdaay
When the words are spoken
Or whispered in your ear
Things have changed since we first met
You alone are more than I expect
But the good outweighs the bad
By 110 per cent
You take me to the top
Youre everything Ive got
You catch me if Im falling
Oh all the way
You take me to the top
You catch me if Im falling oh
Some things go in circles
Somethings in the air
You know just what Im feeling
You can make the difference
You know I really care
You take me to the top
Youre everything Ive got
You catch me if Im falling oh all the way
You take me to the top
You catch me if Im falling
Oh ah ah oh
If I could dream a dream
With a happy end
Youd be in it every night
Again and again
Right here by my side
Youd never go away
But Im awake
I sing I say
You take me to the top
Youre everything Ive got
You catch me if Im falling
Oh all the way
You take me to the top
You catch me if Im falling oh

Rain,rain
Why am I here if youre there
So far away its not fair
To be without you like this
I miss you more than you know
The nights are long
The days slow
Without the warmth of your kiss
Wish you were back here with me
Cause out my window
All is see is
Rain , rain in the sky
Everywhere I look my eyes see
Rain , rain fallin down
Crying as it hits the ground
Rain , rain in my heart
Every day that were apart
Rain , rain
Falling rain , rain
Rain , rain
Only rain , rain
The sun is strong when youre near
But when youre gone it disappears
Behind an ocean of blue
The telephones not good enough
It cant reach out it cant touch
Me like the way you do
Wish you would knock at my door
Cause only you can stop the pouring
Rain , rain in the sky
Everywhere I look my eyes see
Rain , rain fallin down
Crying as it hits the ground
Rain , rain in my heart
Every day that were apart
Rain , rain
Falling rain , rain
Rain , rain
Only rain , rain
Maybe ill go outside
And walk beneath the clouds
Pretend its you thats watching over me
This isnt the only thing that comes
Between us now
Baby soon well be together
Oooo
