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

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

It Keeps Right On A-hurtin
(words & music by j. tillotson)
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 youre gone
It keeps right on ahurtin every minute of the day
Every hour youre away I feel so lonely
And I cant help it, I dont think I can go on
And it keeps right on a-hurtin since youre gone
They say a man aint 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 youre gone
It keeps right on ahurtin every minute of the day
Every hour youre away I feel so lonely
And I cant help it, I dont think I can go on
And it keeps right on a-hurtin since youre gone
Yes, it keeps right on a-hurtin since youre gone

Overnight Sensation
(m. knopfler)
Producers: mark knopfler and neil dorfsman
Album: break every rule (86)
Well I guess Ive been a long time
Working in a backline
Trying to make a song fit
When you know it never was mine
Two dollar high-heel shoes and a honky tonk dress
In the rhythm and the soul reviews I had a dream I guess
And I had to beat the stagefright
I had to cry all night
Trying to make a song fit
When you know it never was right
I said - girl, get up and get out of this mess
Youre gonna be an overnight sensation
Gonna be an overnight success
And all through the badlands
Rocking on the bandstands
Its so hard in the barbands
When theres no one there who understands
And lady luck will pas you by and she will never say yes
Youre gonna be an overnight sensation
Gonna be an overnight success
I used to be a sweet little rocknroll singer
Chasing after fortune and fame
Whats your story? whats your payola?
Me Im in the music game
Well I guess Ive been a long time
Working in a backline
Trying to make a song fit
When you know it never was mine
What can I tell you, I made a break I guess
And now Im an overnight sensation
Im an over overnight success

Sweetheart
If I was to stand in a general election
Would you tell me about your close inspection
And how I never stood for detection
Or would you take another man?
If I told you I had the solution to starvation
All the nations would be their own salvation
And those that lead us lead us not into temptation
Or they pick another man?
Sweetheart
Its affecting me
Sweetheart
Its so effective
Sweetheart
Do you detect in me
A sacred sweetheart
If I told you about my plan would you believe me?
This is my body, my blood, would you receive me?
Or would you be the first to deceive me
And take another man
If I told you that Im not the man to worry
Would you believe me when I said I was really sorry?
Or would you rush off in a hurry to take another man?
Sweetheart
Disconnect from me
Sweetheart
You have got no respect for me
Sweetheart
Its affecting me
My sacred sweetheart
And when youre troubled and when youre ill
You know Ill help, I always will
And when youre troubled and really down
You know Ill always be around
And when youre troubled and really broke
There is hope, theres hope, theres hope
Sweetheart
Its affecting me
Sweetheart
Youve got no respect for me
Sweetheart
Its so effective
My sacred sweetheart
Sweetheart
Disconnect
Sweetheart
Its so effective

What Defines Success
What is the journey to success?
Success is not gained by defeat
Success does not occur over night
Success can emerge at any age
Success is working to full potential
Success is courage
Success is lending a hand
Success is not listening to negativity
Success is being positive
Success is living your life instead of the life of others
Success is being proud
Success is overcoming obstacles
Success is striving
Success is listening to your heart
Most of all success is accepting
What you have accomplished

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.

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

Ive gotten used to getting over
And hopefully as I grow older
Love wont be so difficult to see
But now for me

Success
We used to go out walkin hand in hand
You told me all the big things you had planned
It wasnt long till all your dreams came true
Success put me in second place with you
You have no time to love me anymore
Since fame & fortune knocked upon our door
I spend all my evenings all alone
Success has made a failure of our home
If we could spend an evening now & then
Perhaps wed find true happiness again
You never hold me like you used to do
Its funny what success has done for you
You have no time to love me anymore
Since fame & fortune knocked upon our door
I spend all my evenings all alone
Success has made a failure of our home

Now Youre Gone
(coverdale/vandenberg)
Now youre gone
I can feel my heart is breaking,
An I cant go on
When I think of the love that youve taken
In the night I pray for your embrace,
Every time I close my eyes
I cant escape your face
Youre out of sight,
But, always on my mind,
I never realised
My love could be so blind
Youre all I want,
Cant you feel the love
In this heart of mine
Youre all I need,
So maybe we could turn back
The hands of time,
Maybe we could give it another try
One more time
But, now youre gone
Theres an emptiness closing around me,
An I cant go on
When all I have left is the memory
In the night I call out your name,
I wake up in a cold sweat
An Im all alone again
I need your love
Much more than I can say,
I realise without you
I cant face another day
Youre all I want,
Cant you feel the love
In this heart of mine
Youre all that I need,
Since I lost you, girl,
Ive been losing my mind
Youre all that I want,
So maybe we could turn back
The hands of time,
Maybe we could give it
Another try
One more time,
Baby, just one more time
Now youre gone
I can feel my heart is breaking,
An I cant go on
When all of my love has been taken
Youre all I want,
Cant you feel the love
In this heart of mine
Youre all that I need,
Since I lost you, girl,
Ive been losing my mind
Youre all I want,
Cant you feel the love
In this heart of mine
Youre all that I need,
Since I lost you, girl,
Ive been losing my mind...

Looking For Today
Its complete but obsolete
All tomorrows become yesterday
In demand but second hand
Its been heard before you even play
Up to date but came too late
Better get yourself another name
Youre so right but overnight
Youre the one who has to take the blame
Everyone just gets on top of you
The pain begins to eat your pride
You cant believe in anything you knew
When was the last time that you cried
Dont delay youre in today
But tomorrow is another dream
Sundays star is mondays scar
Out of date before youre even seen
At the top so quick to flop
Youre so new but rotting in decay
Like butterfly so quick to die
But youre only looking for today
Everyone just gets on top of you
The pain begins to eat your pride
You cant believe in anything you knew
When was the last time that you cried
Looking for today
Glamour trip so soon to slip
Easy come but oh how quick it goes
Ten foot tall but what to fall
Hard to open yet so easy to close
Front page news but so abused
You just want to hide yourself away
Over-paid, but soon you fade
Because youre only looking for today
Looking for today

Overnight Observation
(j. farrar/t. snow)
Looks like Im the only one here
Even the nurse is gone
But I guess I should wait cause when she left, she said
The doctor wont be long
So make yourself at home
His office is down the hall
Why do I feel uneasy?
I know he must be good
Got credentials all over the wall
I hear a voice behind me say
What seems to be the trouble, my dear?
Wont you be kind enough to step over here
It might be fever
It might be flu
To isolate it, Ill have to hold you
Overnight (observation)
Overnight (observation)
In my opinion
All we can do to isolate it
Ill hold you overnight (observation)
Overnight (observation)
Please dont think me ungrateful
But holding me overnight
Seems a little extreme
Do you always serve martinis
And turn the lights down low
Doctor, do your colleagues know?
Although you say its good for me
I really dont feel like dancing now
Somebodys waiting
And Im double-parked anyhow
It might be fever
It might be flu
To isolate it, Ill have to hold you
Overnight (observation)
Overnight (observation)
In my opinion
All we can do to isolate it
Ill hold you overnight (observation)
Overnight (observation)
Now, I may look stupid
But Ill tell you what, Ive been around a long time
And I thought I had heard everything
I tell you, they keep coming up with them
I just couldnt believe my ears when he said:
Kick off your shoes, relax my dear
Slip into something comfortable
Two seconds flat, Im out the door and down the hall
It might be fever
It might be flu
To isolate it, Ill have to hold you
Overnight (observation)
Overnight (observation)
In my opinion
All we can do to isolate it
Ill hold you overnight (observation)

Overnight Angels
(ian hunter)
In the heat of the indian summer
Out along the appalachian way
You can hear the sound of the overnight angels
As they pray
Charged by the light of some mariners lantern
Spitting out a cold but triangular spray
Cant you hear the screams of the overnight angels
As they play
Talking to the spirits through a silver curtain
Reaching out beyond the length of the light
You can catch a glimpse of an overnight angel
As he shines
Dancing through the toys of the dead and the living
Laughing at the poets changing their rhymes
Cant you feel the pulse of the overnight angels
Beating time
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels angels angels
Children of the junkies led the revolution
Push yourselves over get yourselves there
Someone throw their arms round the overnight angels
Cause they care
Angels dont need no phony religion
Throw them out along with the ethnic nowheres
They will never speak to the overnight angels
They can only stare
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels angels angels angels
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels angels angels angels
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels angels angels angels
Can you hear us can you hear us
