Souvenir
When you're fed up shedding too many tears
And you're memories seem like just so many souvenirs
I will come to you to ease the pain
If you want me, tell me now
If I can be of any help, tell me how
Let me love you like a friend
Everything is gonna come right in the end
When you're crying like a poor little child
And you're feeling like you never could be reconciled
Don't forget a word of what I'm saying
If you want me, tell me now
If I can be of any help, tell me how
Let me love you like a friend
Everything is gonna come right in the end
Well, I can hold you too tight
I could never let you go
But that wouldn't be right
So, why don't you let me know (let me know)
What you want to do
Everybody's got a handful of fear
But tomorrow it may only be a souvenir
Of the way it was 'til it went away
If you want me, tell me now
If I can be of any help, tell me how
Let me love you like a friend
Every little thing is gonna come right in the end
Well, I can hold you too tight
I could never let you go
But that wouldn't be right
So, why don't you let me know
What you want to do
If you want me, tell me now
If I can be of any help, tell me how
Let me love you like a friend
Every little thing is gonna come right in the end

Little Friends
My childhood was such a magical time. My memory takes me back
so many years ago. I had a little friend, my best buddie,
we played together all the time.
We walked the dusty country roads, hand in hand.
One day my little friend showed me a gift from her sister.
She said, "this is a souvenir." She had a special place
on her dresser for this object.
At that time I did to know the word souvenir. I only know she
treated this object almost as it was sacred.
I remember thinking to myself, "I wish I had a souvenir," and
I wondered if ever I would own such a treasure.
Now, I realize the best souvenir I could ever have is those
wonderful childhood memories.
Maybe one day my friend and I will hold hands and walk another
dusty road --- and remember WHEN.

Try & Love Again
When youre out there on your own
Where your memories can find you.
Like a circle goes around you were lost until you found out
What it all comes down to.
One by one the lonely feelings come.
Day by day they slowly fade away.
Ooh, the look was in her eyes,
You never know what might be found there.
She was dancing right in time and the moves she made so fine
Like the music that surrounds her.
Should I stay or go? I really wanna know.
Would I lose or win if I try and love again?
Oh o-o-o-oh, gonna try and love again.
O-oh o-o-o-oh, Im gonna try and love again.
O-oh o-o-o-oh gonna try and love.
Right or wrong, whats done is done.
Its only moments that you borrow.
But the thoughts will linger on of the lady and her song
When the sun comes up tomorrow.
Well, it might take years to see through all these tears.
Dont let go, when you find it you will know.
Oh o-o-o-oh, gonna try and love again.
O-oh o-o-o-oh, gonna try and love again.
O-oh o-o-o-oh, gonna try and love again. o-oh o-o-o-oh
O-oh o-o-o-oh sometimes lose, sometimes win,
Sometimes you need a friend
O-oh o-o-o-oh, o-oh o-o-o-oh

I' m Gonna Be Around
It's been so long since we took the time
To share words
From deep inside us
We're in our own world spinning our wheels
But you know how I feel
Well since the first time I took your hand
My love for you
Has just been growing
You always seem to understand
You know how I am
(chorus)
I'm gonna love you 'til the end
I'm gonna be
Your very true friend
I wanna share your ups and downs
I'm gonna be around
When you're alone 'cos I'm away
Don't be sad
Don't be afraid
I'm gonna turn my thoughts to you
Like I always do
(chorus)
I'm gonna love you 'til the end
I'm gonna be
Your very true friend
I'm gonna share your ups and downs
I'm gonna be around
Catch you when you fall
Hold you when you're down
Sharing every moment
I wanna show you all I do
I believe I've found a miracle
In you
(chorus)
I'm gonna love you 'til the end
I'm gonna be
Your very true friend
I'm gonna share your ups and downs
I'm gonna be around

Will you and your friend come around
Are you and your friend gonna get on down
Will you and your friend come around
Or are you and your friend gonna let me down
If you talk to one another

So I can make my plans

When You're Gone
Well look at me, the guy who's got it all
Tryin' to read my own writing on the wall
Not happy 'til the sadness comes
To keep me company
Oh, but what becomes of fools who love like me
Chorus:
Who's gonna dry my tears
When I'm crying?
Who's gonna hold my hand
When I'm dying?
Who's gonna set me right when
Everything is wrong
Who's gonna love me
When you're gone?
Sure as winter goes and comes around again
I will be my own undoing in the end
I'll find the answers I've been searching for
In your goodbye kiss
'Cause I don't deserve you and you don't deserve this
Chorus:
Who's gonna dry my tears
When I'm crying?
And who's gonna hold my hand
When I'm dying?
Who's gonna set me right when
Everything is wrong
Yeah, who's gonna love me
When you're gone?
Never happy 'til the darkness comes
And rains down on me
Down on me
Chorus:
And who's gonna dry my tears
When I'm crying?
And who's gonna hold my hand
When I'm dying?
Who's gonna set me right when
Everything is wrong
Who's gonna love me
When you're gone?
Who's gonna love me when you're gone?
Baby when you're gone
Yeah, who's gonna love me
When you're gone?
Who's gonna love me when you're gone?
Who's gonna love me?

ELT
I, I should've been listening
To every word you said
Oh, what have I been missing
Wishing, wishing that you were dead
I didn't mean to be so disturbing
So far from home
Oh, what have I been learning
By being all alone
Every little thing
Every little thing
Every little thing
(Is gonna) Just tears you apart
Every little thing
Every little thing
Every little thing
(Is gonna) Just tears you apart
When, when we were younger
Sleep while I'm awake
I was trying to keep the door locked
I realize that's a mistake
Every little thing
Every little thing
Every little thing
Is gonna tear you apart
Every little thing

Every little thing that you do

Free My Soul
I took your name you took my number
Look me up if youre in my town
You made a friend be sure of that
Let me know if youre free come down
Youre making plans-things youll do
Said Ill be someone Im telling you
Im gonna leave this town play me some rocknroll
Im gonna find myself Im gonna free my soul
We took a walk out in the grey
You didnt speak but had much to say
Dont talk too loud walls have ears
Criticise and youll disappear
A souvenir from where youve gone
A pair of jeans or some chewing gum
Im gonna leave this town play me some rocknroll
Im gonna find myself Im gonna free my soul
They built the wall until they had something to hide
To keep me out or is it to keep you inside
Im gonna free me...

I Cant Give Back The Love I Feel For You
(brian holland/nickolas ashford/valeriesimpson)
Heres a tear, for a souvenir
And a dream, thats torn at the seams
Heres a promise you made to me
Of the tomorrow Ill never see
And then youre free to go
But I cant give back the love
I feel for you
Im gonna be stuck with it
No matter what I do
Take these arms that held you close
I thought I was the one you needed the most
Take these hands, theyre no good to me
That used to touch you so tenderly
But I cant give back the love
Thats a part of me
If you want just a little bit
You have to take all of me
Heres a ring
That didnt mean a thing
And the letters you wrote
That gave my young heart hope
Take the pillow where my dreams were made
And the mind, where the thought of you stayed
But baby, you should know
That I cant give back the love
I feel for you
Im gonna be stuck with it
No matter what I do
Take these eyes that once could see
Now reflections of a misery
The hapiness I thought would last
Now a becoming just a thing of the past
But I cant give back the love
Thats a part of me
If you want just a little bit
You have to take all of me
No, I cant give back
No, I feel for you
Oh, Im gonna be stuck
No matter what I do
cause itll grow till the world
Dont go round no more
But I cant give back the love
I feel for you
Im gonna be stuck with it
No matter what I do
But I cant give back the love
I feel for you
Im gonna be stuck with it
No matter what I do
But I cant give back the love
I feel for you
Im gonna be stuck with it
No matter what I do

Ill hold it inside of me till youre stronger again

When not a word can say it enough...

I Love My Friend
She was crying,
And I was lonely,
And a band was playing,
Some old love song.
Someone had hurt her,
And someone had left me,
And We both needed something,
To hold on to.
Who knows,
Tomorrow it might all end,
But tonight I love my friend.
I love my friend,
And we'll make it, Maybe,
Just maybe.
Even though we're gonna share the night,
In each other's arms,
I'll treat her like a lady,
And I'll call her baby.
'Cause I love my friend,
We'll make it, Maybe,
Just maybe.
Tomorrow when we start another day,
And we don't know the way,
I'll still treat her like a lady,
Still, call her baby.
'Cause I love my friend,
And we'll make it, Maybe.

Leaving aint fair you know
Parting aint just
People got to move on
People got to do what they must
And were back together again
And Im never gonna lose you as a friend
Growing up free
Growing up wild
If you want to know the secret behind the smile
You got to ask a tuesdays child
And were back together again
And Im never gonna lose you as a friend
Well I guess that highway got a hold of me
Thinking crazy thoughts like it was going to set me free
This aint my place you know
This aint my home
And Im not going to feel right

And follow up the one you need the most
Take these hands no good to me
