Had I Known You Better Then
Were you ever so in love
You couldnt wait to get to sleep and dream
About the one you wish was there beside you
In the past few days Ive grown
To love your giggles on the phone
And how we hug so nicely
Chorus:
And from the first time that I saw you
Has I known you better then
I wouldve said those three old words
And from the first time I saw you
Had I known you better then
Now Im gonna move away
Another town another crazy day
Ooh I want to stay and maybe hang around you
Call it luck
Call it fate
Call it a shame that we have met so late
And loved so lightly
Chorus:
And from the first time that I saw you
Had I known you better then
I wouldve said those three old words
And from the first time that I saw you
Had I known you better then

Too Late
Music: al west lyrics: cory rooney, jennifer lopez
Chorus:
First you say that you have to go away
I never should have been with you anyway
Now you say you want to stay
Its too late, cause Im sending you on your way
You say that you have to go away
I never really loved you anyway
Now you say you want to stay
Its too late, its too late
Like a puppet on a string
You came and took control of me
Wouldve given anything
To be your one and only
Filled my head with fantasies of what one day youd give to me
Full of hope for what could be
(I sat and waited patiently)
Chorus
For a time you were for me
Everything that I could need
Gave me time and diamond rings
But something else was missing
You never stayed the whole night through
I suffered, prayed and cried for you
After all that weve been through
I feel I never even knew you
Chorus
Bridge:
Theres no need to call me on the phone
I dont wanna hear from you no more
No need, dont call
Dont be a fool and stand outside my door
cause being the woman that I am
I got to go on with other plans
Break

If She Would Have Been Faithful
I was thinking about her
Visiting the past
Reconstructing details with old photographs
Studying the faces
With an objective point of view
Suddenly remembering doesnt haunt me
At the time you couldnt tell me
That one day Id be glad
That something that I thought was love was misinterpreted
She had another lover- she emphatically denied
But they were doin me a favor
A blessing in disguise
Chorus:
If she would have been faithful
If she could have been true
Then I wouldve been cheated
I would never know real love
I wouldve missed out on you
I watch you sleeping- your body touchin me
Theres no doubt about it
This is where I want to be
Its so ironic- I had to lose to win
I want to thank her (thank her again)
Chorus
Bridge:
Its a paradox- full of contradiction
How I got from there to here
It defies a
Logical explanation

Why Do We Call It Love

Why do we call it love baby, why do we call it love
Love is something that is sent from heaven up above
Why do we call it love baby, what were we thinking of
I feel it shakin in my bones, and Im feelin awful rough

If sugar is sweet, then theres too much in my tea
And Im sick to my stomach when you creep up on me

My insides do the jitterbug, why do we call it love

The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonite
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
This here is the place I will be staying
There isnt a number. you can call the pay phone
Let it ring a long, long, long, long time
If I dont pick up, hang up, call back, let it ring some more
If I dont pick up, pick up. the sidewinder sleeps, sleeps, sleeps in a coil
(chorus)
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
There are scratches all around the coin slot
Like a heartbeat, baby, trying to wake up,
But this machine can only swallow money
You cant lay a patch by computer design
Its just a lot of stupid, stupid signs
Tell her,
Tell her she can kiss my ass, then laugh and say that you were only kidding
That way shell know that its really, really, really, really me, me
(repeat chorus)
Baby, instant soup doesnt really grab me
Today I need something more sub-sub-sub-substantial
A can of beans or blackeyed peas, some nescafe and ice,
A candy bar, a falling star, or a reading of doctor seuss
(repeat chorus)
The cat in the hat came back, wrecked a lot of havoc on the way,
Always had a smile and a reason to pretend
But their world has flat backgrounds and little need to sleep but to dream
The sidewinder sleeps on his back
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
I can always sleep standing up, call me when you try to wake her
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
I can always sleep standing up, call me when you try to wake her
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
I can always sleep standing up, call me when you try to wake her
I can always sleep standing up, call me when you try to wake her

Yah Mo B There
By james ingram/michael mcdonald/rod temperton/quincy jones
Heavenly father watching us all
We take from each other and give nothing at all
Well its a dog-gone shame
But never too late for change
So if your luck runs low
Just reach out and call his name, his name
Chorus:
Yah mo be there (up and over)
Yah mo be there (up and over)
Yah mo be there (up and over)
Yah mo be there (up and over)
Whenever you call
Never be lonely lost in the night
Just run from the darkness
Looking for the light
cause its a long hard road
That leads to a brighter day (hey)
Dont let your heart grow cold
Just reach out and call his name, his name
Chorus:
You can count on it brother
cause were all just finding our way
Travelling through time
People got to keep pushing on
No matter how many dreams slip away
Yah mo be there
Well its a dog-gone shame
But never too late for change
So when your luck runs low
Just reach out and call his name, his name

Dr. Feelgood
Rat tailed jimmy is a second hand hood
He deals out in hollywood
Got a '65 chevy primered flames
Traded for some powdered goods
Jigsaw jimmy he's runnin' a gang
But i hear he's doin' o.k.
Got a cozy little job, sells the mexican mob
Packages of candycaine
(chorus)
He's the one they call dr. feelgood
He's the one that makes ya feel alright
He's the one they call dr. feelgood
Cops on the corner always ignore
Somebody's getting paid
Jimmy's got it wired, law's for hire
Got it make in the shade
Got a little hideaway, does business all day
But at night he'll always be found
Selling sugar to the sweet
People on the street
Call this jimmy's town
(chorus)
He's gonna be your frankenstein
I've got one thing you'll understand
He's not what you'd call a glamorous man
Got one thing that's easily understood
He's the one they call dr. feelgood
He'll tell you he's the king
Of these barrio streets
Moving up to shangri la
Came by his wealth as a matter of luck
Says he never broke no law
Two time loser running out of juice
Time to move out quick
Heard a rumour going round
Jimmy's going down
This time it's gonna stick
(chorus)
He's gonna be your frankenstein
Let him soothe your soul, just take his hand
Some people call him an evil man
Let him introduce himself real good
He's the only one they call "feelgood

Borrowed Time
Got the word, getting ready
Gonna get my pay from ? ? ? ?
Im in light, ? ? ? ?
When the action is hot, ? ? ? ?
No town, no city
Gonna be free from the jumping jack
Kiss of life, getting gritty
If the mule dont kick you know the mule dont ride
And I know, yes I know, well I know
Thats the way to go
And I know, and I know
And I know that Im gonna get it down the road
Chorus:
Cause Im living on a borrowed time
Do it your way, Ill do it mine
Living on a borrowed time
Dont need a shove, dont need a sign
Call me names, call me crazy
Dont try to stop me when I feel this way
Its a game, (whoopsy daisy? )
Here comes another girl to make my day
And I know, yes I know, well I know
Thats the way to go
And I know, yes I know

I Wouldve Loved You Anyway
(m.danna/t.verges)
If Id a-known the way that this would end
If Id a-read the last page first
If Id a-had the strength to walk away
If Id a-known how this would hurt
I wouldve loved you anyway
Id do it all the same
Not a second I would change
Not a touch that I would trade
Had I known my heart would break
Id a-loved you anyway
Its bittersweet to look back now
At memries withered on the vine
But just to hold you close to me
For a moment in time
I wouldve loved you anyway
Id do it all the same
Not a second I would change
Not a touch that I would trade
Had I known my heart would break
Id a-loved you anyway
And even if Id seen it coming
Youd stillve seen me running
Straight into your arms
I wouldve loved you anyway
Id do it all the same
Not a second I would change
Not a touch that I would trade
Had I known my heart would break
I wouldve loved you anyway
I wouldve loved you anyway

Life Is Good
(Jo Dee Messina/Mark Selby)
I used to think that life was all about the joneses
Trying to find a way to just keep up some how
I had to have it, do it, be it, had to own it
A little secret that I finally figured out
We spend so much time climbing up the ladder
And then we're missing all the things that really matter
Chorus:
I've got my two feet on the ground
Breathin' in and breathin' out
Oh yeah
Life is good
I'm gonna grab on to today
Live every minute in the way I know I should
Life is good
I like to move, I like to run, I like to get it done
Or I can stay home on the couch and watch tv
Give me sunshine, give me rain, it makes no diffence to me
It's all the same, all the same to me
Call me simple, call me crazy
I believe that it's all in what we make yah
Repeat chorus
Call me simple, call me crazy
I believe that it's all in what we make yah

Oh, my mistake for hitting your new car
Something bout you took me in, something bout that dark brown skin
Something bout that sexy smile, something bout you drove me wild
And now Im crazy, theyre gonna put me away

As I cant believe this world without the sun
I cant believe my heart without your love
Those who dont understand, I havent had anyone to win my heart
Like youve done to me thus far

Bed Time
Here I am struggling to say I love you
A hundred times more in the short time
I have left before I know I have to go to bed
Fighting to stay awake in the mean time
My body is slowing down and
Telling me it’s time to rest
But I cant stop talking to you
My love
Never wanting to go
Never thinking that
I’ve spent enough time with you
The time is here
We say are final good-bye and
I love you’s
With one click of the phone
Your voice no longer rings in my ears
But I dream of your smile,
I look at the phone for a few more seconds
And almost call back and tell you
How much I love you
(Witch would be pointless cause
I don’t know words to express something as strong as that)
And that I never want to stop talking to you
I walk down stairs slowly because I’m so tired
I can barley stay awake
I hang up the phone
Then look at it one more time
Then with what’s left of my energy
I go up stairs to my room
The room we should be sharing together
But we are not,
So I climb into my comfortable bed
Lay my weary head upon the soft pillow
My last thought is
Gosh I wish he was here beside me
When it becomes
Our bed time

Is that what time it is?
Im sorry if I woke you with this call.
But all this wine is in my head, and Im so lonely from it all.
Dont hang up.
Baby, hear what I gotta say.
We started out such a beautiful story.
We just cant end this way.
Chorus:
I wanna come over, I wanna love you tonight.
I dont care about the time or whos wrong or whos right.
Just say its ok, and Ill be on my way.
I wanna come over. could you get outta bed?
Ill try to unsay all the things Ive said.
Please say its ok, and Ill be on my way.
Is that what time it is?
Im sorry if Im keeping you from your sleep.
But all thse feelings are running through me.
You know I never knew they ran so deep.
Whats that youre sayin?
That just before I phoned,
You were gettin ready to give me call,
cause you were feelin so alone.

I wanna come over.

When Love Gets a Hold of You - Reba McEntire
vs.1 It's all around you now, but you don't know it.
It's tugging at your heart, but you don't show it.
It's just a matter of time,
It's gonna hit you right between the eyes.
(chorus)
You'll wake up in the middle of the night,
I'll be the only thing on your mind,
Won't be able to shake it loose,
When love gets a hold of you.
Before you have your first cup of coffee,
You're gonna pick up the phone and call me,
Won't believe what you say and do,
When love gets a hold of you.
vs.2 'Cause it's gonna be written all over your face,
All your friends gonna tell you how much you've changed.
Feeling things that you can't deny,
Going crazy and you don't know why.
(chorus)
Bridge: It gets a hold of you,
It's just a matter of time,
It's gonna hit you right between the eyes.
(chorus 2)
You're driving home at the end of the day,
You'll find yourself coming by my place,
Yeah, you always have a good excuse,
When love gets a hold of you.
Once you're standing inside my door,
Won't remember what you came here for,
Can't control what you say and do,
When love gets a hold of you.
Yeah, gets a hold of you.
Gets a hold of you.
Gets a hold of you.
Oh, it gets a hold of you.

Sad goodbye
Never quite got said
Now the time is gone
Were movin on
Even though it hurts so bad
If I could Id turn back the days
And Id love again
To be your friend
In a hundred different ways
But we cant turn back the time
The days
Chorus:
So if I never said
All I needed to say
Ill say it now
You know I loved you once
I love you stronger today
Please love find me a way
Words I still need to say
But I dont know how
Cant stand still
Still I cant move on
Lord I need your strength
Need you in me
cause a part of me is gone
In time I will know
What Ive yet to see
That through all the pain
You hurt the same
And youre standing here with me
And more than anything its you I need

Wishing there was time enough, you tell me theres no time, but I can try.

Speak now, without the summer light
All the words I should have spoken, when you held me tight
