Souvenirs
When youre fed up shedding too many tears
And your memory seems 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 youre crying like a poor little child
And you feel like you never could
Be reconciled
Dont forget a word of what Im saying - oh
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 wouldnt be right
So, why dont you let me know (let me know)
Let me know what you want to do
Everybodys got a handful of fear
But tomorrow it may only be a souvenir
Of the way it is 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
Everything is gonna come right in the end
Well, I can hold you too tight
I could never let you go
But that wouldnt be right
So, why dont you let me know
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
Everything is gonna come right in the end

If Youre Not Gonna Love Me Right
(m.seward)
Hey, oh
Hey yeah
Hey baby, hey baby
The phone is ringing
And Im running late
Ive no time to get it
coz Im expecting you at eight
Heard your voice on the message
Im surprised you called
Said youre all tied up
And you aint comin at all
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
Youre just gonna make me crazy
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
If youre not gonna love me right, oh
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
At all
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
At all
Another box of roses outside on my porch
Twelve long excuses none of them stop the hurt
Wheres this going, do you really care?
Is this real love, I dont know anymore I swear
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
Baby dont make me crazy
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
If youre not gonna love me right, yeah
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
Oh baby
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
I really want you, oh baby
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
If youre not gonna love me right
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
Baby just make me crazy
Baby, I want you here
If youre not here it makes me feel like
I cant trust you
You make me crazy if you really love me
You see
Oh, I get confused when you hold me next to you
I wanna go further, oh baby yes I do
I just cant hold on to something that wont last
So wed better slow down, and maybe not go so fast
Maybe not go so fast
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
Youre just gonna make me crazy
(if youre not gonna love me right)
If youre not gonna love me
Baby dont love me, baby dont love me, baby dont love me
If youre not gonna love me right
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby, dont love me at all
Youre just gonna make me crazy
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby, dont love me at all
Youre just gonna make me crazy
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
Baby dont love, baby dont love me
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
Baby dont love, baby dont love me
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
Baby dont love, baby dont love me
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
If youre not gonna do it right
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
If youre not gonna do it right
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
If youre not gonna do it right
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
Baby dont love, baby dont love me

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

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.

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...

Hold Out
I know that Im not crazy
If I were I wouldnt talk about it
Im homesick for your love
cause I know I cant live without it
If you need a guarantee Im gonna love you everyday
Say no more about it because youve got it in every way
Chorus
Im gonna hold out one more day
I wont let her take you away
Im gonna hold out somehow someway
I dont wanna see the day when you say goodbye
I wish I could get you out of my system
I say in my mind but my heart wont listen
I need a fix or two
cause Im in the habit of you
And if a guarantee is what you need
To keep me by your side
Say no more about it
Because my love I just cant hide
Chorus
Im gonna hold out one more day
I wont let her take you away
Im gonna hold out somehow someway
I dont wanna see the day when you say
Bridge
All you need in your life
All you need in your heart
All you need from a friend
Is love
All you need from your mother
All you need from your lover
All wee need from another
Is love
Im gonna hold out one more day
I wont let her take you away
Im gonna hold out somehow someway
I dont wanna see the day when you say goodbye

So Called Friend
Yeh Im gonna make you wonder if youre my friend
Yeh Im gonna make you wonder if youre my friend
Yeh thats the way I choose them all my friends
Do you think youre close with all your promises
Do you think I act strange when you talk to me
Its cause I dont see you
Yeh Im gonna make you wonder if youre my friend
Yeh I may as well tell you youll never be my friend
Aah thats the way I choose them all my friends
The telephone always rings when youve got success
You only want us when were at our best
But we dont hear you
Yeh Im gonna make you wonder if youre my friend
It isnt our fault that your lifes depressed
Weve listened and weve learned
That all of the words that you say

Mean nothing

Down In The Flood
Crash on the levee, mama,
Waters gonna overflow,
Swamps gonna rise,
No boats gonna row.
Now, you can train on down
To williams point,
You can bust your feet,
You can rock this joint.
But oh mama, aint you gonna miss your best friend now?
Youre gonna have to find yourself
Another best friend, somehow.
Now, dont you try an move me,
Youre just gonna lose.
Theres a crash on the levee
And, mama, youve been refused.
Well, its sugar for sugar
And salt for salt,
If you go down in the flood,
Its gonna be your own fault.
Oh mama, aint you gonna miss your best friend now?
Youre gonna have to find yourself
Another best friend, somehow.
Well, that high tides risin,
Mama, dont you let me down.
Pack up your suitcase,
Mama, dont you make a sound.
Now, its king for king,
Queen for queen,
Its gonna be the meanest flood
That anybodys seen.
Oh mama, aint you gonna miss your best friend now?
Yes, youre gonna have to find yourself
Another best friend, somehow.

Dad
Dad i hate to tell ya
sometimes i want to slap you in the face
But dad i got to tell you
If you were gone i'd miss you from this place
Don't go away again
I just want to be your friend
And if i dont say this now i'm gonna be sorry
i dont want to make the same mistake again
Dad i need to tell you
sometimes i want to walk right out of the door
Dad i'm gonna tell you
i'm glad that we dont argue like before
Don't go away again
I just want to be your friend
And if i dont say this now i'm gonna be sorry
i dont want to make the same mistake again
Dad I need to tell you
Sometimes its hard to tell you how i feel
And Dad i'm gonna tell you
I wish that all our differences weren't real
Don't go away again
I just want to be your friend
And if i dont say this now i'm gonna be sorry
i dont want to make the same mistake again
I see the older that i get
I'm becoming you
Dad i want to tell you
I just want to take away your pain

Hold On Hold Out
Hold on hold out, keep a hold on strong
The moneys in and the bets are down
You wont hold out long
They say youll fall in no time at all
But you know theyre wrong
Known it all along
Hold on hold out, keep a hold on still
If you dont see what your love is worth
No one ever will
Youve done your time on the bottom line
And it aint no thrill
Theres got to be something more
Keep a hold on still
You know what it is youre waiting for
Now you just hold on
Hold on hold out, hold on
Give up your heart and you lose your way
Trusting another to feel that way
Give up your heart and you find yourself
Living for something in somebody else
Sometimes you wonder what happens to love
Sometimes the touch of a friend is enough
Hold a place for the human race
Keep it open wide
Give it time to fall or climb
But let the time decide
Sometimes you wonder whats in this for you
But you wait, and you see
cause its all you can do
Just to hold on
Hold on hold out, hold on
For the countless souls beaten by their goals
Keep a hold on now
And the ones betrayed by the deals they made
Keep a hold on
If you hold your ground itll turn around
Keep a hold somehow
Hold on hold out, keep a hold on tight
Tonights the night
Wake up and turn on the light
You fight, and youre right--
Its gonna take all your might...
Youre a hold out
Well Im a hold out too
But it took me all this time to figure out
Something you already knew
Will love be true? can it pull you through?
How long? how strong?
Somethings depend on you
See-- I always figured I was going to meet somebody here
And I dont know why
Why should love come down and suddenly just sweep me away
I want to fly
But there are so many things in my way
Anyway...
I guess you wouldnt know unless I told you
But...
I love you
Well just look at yourself--
What else would I do?
Hold on--

Let Me Show You The Way

It doesnt have to be this way...

When this heart is big enough for the both of us

Ill hold it inside of me till youre stronger again
Well, I hate seeing you so far away
When not a word can say it enough...

Hey Kind Friend
Hey kind friend
I dont know when Ill see you again
On a ferry boat bound to victoria
Laying down to hide from the wind
Big dipper hangin over the city
You know everything now is different for me
And it aint no use in
Explainin the scenery
I said
Kind friend
Help me forget where I been
Kind friend
Remember who I am
I was too late in spokane
So I caught a ride through the cascade range
I saw the sun die in olympia
Running down on capital lake
Now I ask you for some relief
Its one true root that you bring to me
Its 3 am
And its good company
I said
Hey kind friend
Help me forget where I been
Hey kind friend
Help me remember who I am
Hey kind friend
Dont know if Im gonna see you again
Its okay friend
Its okay friend
(its so hard when they all have to face going away)
So Ill meet you in new orleans or Ill see you around
Cause I dont know if its worth coming down
Hey Im calling you
From a goldrush town
And I say
Hey kind friend
Help me forget where Ive been
Hey kind friend
Help me remember who I am
Hey kind friend
I dont know if Im gonna see you again
Its ok friend
Im ok friend
I said Im ok friend
Im ok friend

Fool For The Night
I know just what youre thinking
I know just how you feel
Something somewhere inside you
Say you cant believe its real
So youre gonna play the game
All the faces and the names
And you know youre never gonna change
Fool for the night
And you dont believe it
Fool for the night
And you just cant see it
Running through the shadows
Like a phantom in the night
And as the curtain raises
You get ready for the fight
Say you want to even up the score
Dont know what youre doing it for
Too much but you still need more
Fool for the night
And you dont believe it
Fool for the night
And you still cant see it
I aint gonna try and tell ya
You know the story oh so well
Everybodys out to buy and sell ya
Youre gonna wind up by yourself
Oh here it comes again
No its never gonna end
I must be dreaming
Solo
Fool for the night
Fool for the night
Oh here it comes again
I aint gonna try and tell ya
You know the story oh so well
Everybodys out to buy and sell ya
Youre gonna wind up by yourself
Oh here it comes again
No its never gonna end
I must be dreaming
You love the night life
All the neon and the noise
And underneath the spotlight
You keep rockin with the boys
So youre never gonna understand
Nobody really gives a damn
Fool for the night and you dont believe it
Fool for the night why dont you see it

Just Dont Tell Me That
Oh oh, no no, all right
You got to be seen at every party
At the playboy mansion
But, sad
I know I gotta draw the line
You wanna be in
The flashes of light
Holding me tight
With your phoney laugh
I guess
You gotta be photographed
You can say its real
But I know where its at
Just dont tell me that
You are gonna love me
I dont wanna hear it baby
Tell me that
Its gonna be your last lie
No baby I wont go for that
Even if you did say
You were gonna be there
I dont want you back
cause its not about love
Just dont tell me that
You like to drive in my car
Spend every dollar of my credit
Baby, guess what
Saw me with your golden eye
Guess you wanna be
Part of the ride
Live for the night
But Ive seen it through
Had enough of being close to you
You can say its real
But I know where its at
Just dont tell me that

Stop where you are
Dont move an inch
Dont come any closer now baby
Youll be in a pinch
Dont start what you cant finish
I warn you whats in store
If its love youre looking to get
Youre gonna get what youre looking for
Stop where you are
Youd better freeze
Dont pull the fire now baby
Dont be a tease
Dont start what you cant finish
I told you once before
If its love youre looking to get
Youre gonna get what youre looking for
Dont you know, youre walking on dangerous ground
Listen babe when I make love
I just dont fool around, no I dont
I just dont play around
Stop where you are
Just take it slow
Once I put my hands on you baby
I wont let you go
Dont start what you cant finish
One kiss and I want more
If its love youre looking to get
Youre gonna get what youre looking for
Stop where you are
Dont move an inch
Stop where you are
Youre gonna be in a pinch
Stop where you are
Youre gonna get what youre looking for

Dont Turn Around
Written by: albert hammond, dianne warren
If you wanna leave
I wont beg you to stay
And if you gotta go, darlin
Maybe, its better that way
Im gonna be strong, gonna be fine
Dont worry about this heart of mine
Just walk out that door and see if I care
Go on and go now
But dont turn around
cause youre gonna see my heart breaking
Dont turn around
I dont want you seeing me cry
Just walk away
Its tearing me apart that youre leaving
Im letting you go
But I wont let you know
I wont miss your arms around me
Holding me tight, so tight, real tight
And if you ever think about me
Just know that Ill be all right
Im gonna be strong, gonna do fine
Dont worry about this heart of mine
I know Ill survive and Ill make it thru
And Ill even learn to live without you
But dont turn around
cause youre gonna see my heart breaking
Dont turn around
I dont want you seeing me cry
Just walk away
Its tearing me apart that youre leaving
Im letting you go
But I wont let you know
I wish I could cry out loud
That I love you baby
I wish I could say to you
Dont go, dont go, dont go
But dont turn around
cause youre gonna see my heart breaking
Dont turn around
I dont want you seeing me cry
Just walk away

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
