Standing Still
Cuttin through the darkest night
In my two headlights
Im trying to keep it clear
But Im losing it here
To the twilight
Theres a dead end to my left
Theres a burning bush to my right
You arent in sight
You arent in sight
Do you want me
Like I want you?
Chorus
Or am I standing still?
Beneath the darkened sky
Or am I standing still?
With the scenery flying by
Or am I standing still?
Out of the corner of my eye
Was that you that passed me by?
Mothers on a stoop
Boys in souped-up coupes
On this hot summer night
Between fight and flight
Is the blind mans sight
And the choice thats right
I roll the window down
Feels like Im gonna drown
In this strange town
I feel broken down
I feel broken down
Do you need me
Like I need you?
Chorus
Sweet sorrow is the call tomorrow
Sweet sorrow is the call tomorrow
Do you love me
Like I love you?
Chorus
Oh, youre passing me by
Passing me by
Do you need me like I need you to?
Do you want me like I want you?
Or are you passing me by?
Or am I standing still?

Look At The One Whos Been Looking At You
(wanda mallette, johnny macrae, bob morrison)
Arent you tired of looking
For love you never find
Arent you tired of playing games
With 20/20 vision
How is your heart so blind
Its all you wanted love to be
Is close enough for you to see
Chorus:
Look at the one whos been looking at you
Look at the one whos love would be true
You might be surprised
At the love thats shining in her eyes
Look at the one whos so easily found
Look at the one and stop looking around
Look at the one whos been looking at you
Im standing here just hoping
Youre gonna look my way
But youre too busy chasing dreams to see
But when the dreams are faded
Theres gonna come a day
That I can give you sweet, sweet love
And all the things youre dreaming of

I Believe
I used to be the first one to cry
So afraid of a lonely tomorrow.
Heartache was all that I had
To call my own- so all alone.
You came along and gave to my life
Something more than the pain and the sorrow.
Now that youre with me, well never be alone,
In love, in love.
Chorus:
I believe
In the love that you gave,
I believe
In the life that you saved,
I believe how you make me feel
Today
I believe in you
Night after night, I waited alone
For something deeper than yesterdays feelings.
Never believing that love would ever come
To me- oh no.
Then there was you, and out of the blue,
Once a heart that was broken was healing.
Love is the reason well never be alone,
Oh no- oh no
Chorus
I still believe,
Believe in something right.
cause I love you for believing in me.
I believe in you.

Youre my pop-si-cle!
From the very first time I met you, girl, you captured me
Youre my pop-si-cle!
All I know is that you make me feel so fancyfree.
Gonna love you for a lifetime
And I know youre gonna love me too
You make me feel, feel so real

Sweeter than candy
Better than cake
And everytime we kiss
It feels oh so great
Girl, cant you see?
Youre the one, youre the one for me!

When I call you up on my favorite party line

Youre the one who makes me feel alright
When I look into your eyes, you know youre really out of sight
Im for you and youre for me
We could stay together so easily

Youre the one, youre the one for me!

Shadow Of Your Love
Took my chances carelessly
choked on my own cigarette
You can hand me another bottle of whiskey baby
but you aint seen the worst yet
Now I'm reckless, gonna have some fun
and the woman who is dead
who was out alnight, no I'm not the only one
And I ain't standing, never standing
in the shadow of your love
shadow of your love
shadow of your love
shadow of your love
Wrote my changes helplessly
yeah but I got no regrets
Money it was on the table
so I booked with all the bets
Living like a lemon aint so hot
and you aint my idea
of one high-rollin' shot
No I ain't standing, never standing
Chorus
Big dark clouds hanging over your head
hope you've heard, baby all I've said
You've been told, what I've said
No use crying, you're as good as dead
Now I'm reckless, gonna have some fun
and the woman who is dead, who is out alright
now I'm not the only one
And I ain't standing, never standing

Now I dont want to live without love anymore, I just wanna live my life

Oh, Brother
Im not much for making little wishes
But Id like a little wish to come true for you
Im not talking about loaves and fishes
But I wish that there was something I could do for you
Heres a little bit of cheap advice
To be taken in an hour of need
Dont assume that the life you left
Is the life you have to lead
(chorus)
When you come home what you gonna do
Oh brother, oh brother
Dont you try to deny
What you know to be true
The same mess of misery that you done been through
Standing in line
And its waiting for you
One kiss leads to another
Brother when you come back home
Id like to know whos knocking on door
Id like to know what they come here for
Youd like to say no
But the words wont come
Come in and sit down, seem to roll off your tongue
You forget to remember, to never die young
One kiss leads to another
Brother when you come back home
Standing in line, all of your friends
Standing in line, party never ends
Standing in line, the river flows, the river bends
Standing in line, all of your friends
- chorus -
And that moon will be
Shining in the trees
All night long
Something bound to happen for sure
Soon youll be
Stopping by talking to a friend again
Swear you aint never tasted nothing so pure
- chorus -
When you come home, your friends are dropping by
When you come home, the moon is gonna shine
When you come home, I tell you no lie
When you come home, theyre gonna offer you a line
Standing in line, all of your friends
Standing in line, party never ends now
Standing in line, the river flows, the river bends
Standing in line, all your so called friends
Standing in line, when you come home
Standing in line, oh brother, oh brother now
Standing in line, when you come home
Standing in line, what youre gonna do now

Standin In My Light

Well I finally found you out
All through your mess of dreams
You wont make it to the night
And your standing in my light
You know youve been bad for me
You aint got the weight to hate
But you aint no pretty sight
And your standing in my light
Move over cause your standing in my light
Move over cause your standing in my light
Move over cause your standing in my light (yeah)
Move over cause your standing in my light
Now when your old man beats the drums
Gotta run run run thats dumb
A little less ego a little more fight
Move over cause your standing in my light
Things go bad and the risks get high
Sweeping dead bodies cross an open sky
You took my pictures from your walls
Aint gonna trade with the pain of the new york dolls
Move over cause your standin in my

In The Cold, Cold, Night
I saw you standing in the corner
On the edge of a burning light
I saw you standing in the corner
Come to me again in the cold, cold night
You make me feel a little older
Like a full grown woman might
But when youre gone I grow colder
In the cold, cold, night
I saw you standing in the corner
On the edge of a burning light
I saw you standing in the corner
Come to me again in the cold, cold night
You make me feel a little older
Like a full grown woman might
But when youre gone I grow colder
Come to me again in the cold, cold night
I see you walking by my front door
I hear the creaking of the kitchen floor
I dont care what other people say
Im going to love you, anyway
Come to me again in the cold, cold night
I cant stand it any longer
I need the fuel to make my fire burn bright
So dont fight it any longer
Come to me again in the cold, cold night
And I know that you feel it too
When my skin turns into glue
You will know that its warm inside
And youll come run to me, in the cold, cold night

#1 Zero
Listen now, let me speak
I will be the dog at your feet
And come along when you call
Be the little bird in your straw and sing you a song
I'll be there to take the fall
Though you tread upon me for no reason at all
Chorus
But just when you think you've left me blind
I will keep you in the corner of my eye
I will never leave your side
Though you call me your number one zero
your nevermind
I'll be your king, I'll be your pawn
I will builid a pedestal and put you upon it
Chorus
But just when you think you've left me blind
I'll be creeping right up behind
Cause if I need to
I will keep you in the corner of my eye
corner of my eye
Down on the street, over your night
Out of your sleep, out of your sight
if I need to, if I need to
Out of your mouth, in every word
Down in your ego one thing is sure
I will keep you, I will keep you
Chorus
But just when you think you've left me blind
I will be creeping right up behind
Cause baby if I need to
Lord, I will keep you in the corner of my eye
I will be the bird in your straw
But you won't get far
I will keep you in the corner of my eye

Seems to light up all my life

Standing In For Joe
Im standing, standing in for joe
Joe called round to ask me, would I do a favor?
While hes gonna be out of town
He says his girl needs company, she gets so restless
Would I keep her safe and sound?
Softly, softly in the night
Why, you can guess the rest...
Now these shoes fit all too well
Standing in for joe
Standing in for joe
Im standing - in for joe
Joe said weve been friends so long
That I would be the one he would trust with his life
And now those words roll round my brain
As darkness falls, as I turn out his bedroom light
Who could resist her tender charms?
So the story goes...
This actor he plays all the parts
Standing in for joe
Standing in for joe
Im standing - in for joe
Love is like a river,
You cannot stop its flow... mmm hmm
Joe called round to ask me, would I do a favor?
While hes gonna be out of town

Would I check that shes safe and sound?

Standing in for joe - just standing in for joe, yeah
Standing in for joe - until he gets back home, yeah
Standing in for joe - gonna keep her insane, yeah
Standing in for joe - gonna keep her safe and sound, yeah
Standing in for joe - keep his sweetheart company, yeah
Standing in for joe - almost full time, which is nice, yeah
Standing in for joe - because she gets so restless
Standing in for joe - always so restless
Standing in for joe - keep his sweetheart company, yeah
Standing in for joe - gonna keep her safe and sound, yeah

Which Bridge To Cross
Ive got two lovers in my life now
A true love and one thats brand new
Im not really sure that I know how
To love one and tell one were through
Chorus:
I cant sleep at night, I toss and turn
I keep losing sight of lessons Ive learned
Im standing at the crossroads with just one concern
Which bridge to cross and which bridge to burn
I knew this was wrong, I didnt listen
Cause a heart only knows what feels right
Oh I need to reach a decision
And get on with the rest of my life

God Gave You To Everyone
I never wanted anyone as much I want you
While you were making everyone I never had a clue
No matter how you treated me
I'm still in love with you
Can't kick the feeling that the more I give,
the more I owe
I'm walking through the garden of the sun,
it's raining though
I'm waiting for your kiss of life,
but it's not gonna show
[Chorus:]
God gave you to everyone
In your summer of love
God gave you to everyone
Cause I'm not enough
We can't all be all things to everyone
You'll never spend your whole life standing in the sun
But you make me feel I don't mean anything to anyone
Looking for the kiss in your mouth
Living at the edge of my skin
Standing on the roof of heaven with the devil
as it crashes in
[Chorus:]
God gave you to everyone
You told me so
God gave you to everyone
Oh Domino
Ah ah ah

In your summer of love
God gave you to everyone
Cause I'm not enough

Never Ever Gonna Let Go
Vs.1 Walkin' around, I'm
Lookin' down
At the floor.
Even with you standing
By my side, I
Don't know how I feel for sure.
Actually, this is how I feel.
And let me tell you, it's real.

You are the one that I admire,
The only guy that I desire,
And I thought you oughta know.
You are the one that I would choose,
The only guy I don't wanna lose,
And I'm never ever gonna let go.
Vs.2 You look into my eyes, and
Deep inside, I'm
Trying to control myself.
And looking at you, I
Can see you have
Something to tell.
You say that you feel the same way.
Boy, you know you made my day!

Bridge: You lean down and kiss me,
You say, 'I love you, ' I say, 'I love you, too.
This day can't get any better, '
And you say, 'That's so true! '

Youre Not Alone
I see you there, a silhouette in the moonlight;
Looks like youve given up on love.
You used to be the face in the spotlight;
Now lonliness fits you like a glove.
You walk around in your cloak of darkness,
Too blind to see the light.
Your wings are broken, now your spirit cant take flight.
Youre not alone, youre not alone,
While your hearts still young and free.
Youre not alone, pick up the phone
And talk to me; baby, you will see
Youre not alone.
Pools of sorrow and tears of joy;
Theres a broken-up girl for every broken-down boy.
But you dont wanna hear it,
You like the rhythm of the blues;
Wanna be a sad story on the late-night news.
I dont mean to burst your bubble,
But the worlds got troubles worse than you.
And everybody else out here gets lonely too.
Youre not alone, youre not alone,
I;ve been waiting patiently.
No, youre not alone, pick up the phone
And talk to me, baby, you will see...
Although your heart is in pieces,
You cant find a reason to try.
Youre not alone, while Im still standing by.

Clears away the cobwebs and the sorrow

What If It Was You ?
VERSE 1
See her on the street
Selling her body just to make ends meet
Every day's the same sad story
She prays but no one answers back
A soul who never had a chance
Don't you laugh at her misfortune
Everyone can take a fall
If you were walking in those footsteps
Wouldn't laugh at all
CHORUS
What if it was you standing on the street
What if it was you without enough to eat
What if it was you with nothing left to lose
What if it was you standing in those shoes
What if it was you all alone out there
Didn't have a choice didn't have a prayer
What if it was you down on your luck

Askin' hey mista' can you spare some change
Why don'tcha get a job is all they say

Anyone can take his place
If you were walking in those footsteps
Wouldya' feel the same

What if it was you without enough to eat
What if it was you with nothing left to lose

How you gonna eat, where you gonna sleep

Everyone can take a fall
If you were walking in those footsteps
Wouldn't laugh at all
