It Takes You No Time To Get Here
(words & music: per gessle)
Published by jimmy fun music
Why dont you take the rest of the day off
You do deserve a break
Follow that road, it aint long
Just cross that silver lake
Yea, pass the pond, the off-white fence
When you see the mailbox to the left youve made it all right,
No way to go wrong
All you do is blow that horn
It takes you no time to get here
Just drive out of town today
It takes you no time to get here and when
Youve arrived you might as well stay
You might as well stay
Why dont you leave your desk for a short while
You do deserve some time
Enjoying the other side of life you forgot to memorize
Stay in the sun, reach for the moon
Make a little love in the afternoon
Youre doing all right, no way you go wrong
This is the place where you belong
It takes you no time
No time to get here

Dont Stay Home
Life could slip away in absent minded numbness
Im only sayin this cuz I wish for the best
When you always stay in self-incarceration
I thinks its such a shame
Dont stay home this time no dont stay home
If he dont have to he dont want to
Dont stay home this time no dont say no
Oh how Id like to diffuse your time bomb anger
Its screaming danger danger this kind of world
Dont care if youre home so you better get some
Dont stay home this time no dont stay home
If he dont have to he dont want to
Dont stay home this time no dont say no
Everything Im sayin you can dismiss
Because I sat alone on this past christmas
I deserved to be alone
But I guess I should have gone home
Hey dont break the mold kid just eat around it
Yeah thats what I did
Ill be running around the block
For no apparent reason
Somethin youll catch me doin in any season
Gotta break a sweat man gotta go bust out
Biddy by by by by
Good-bye to the drout, yea
Dont stay home this time no dont stay home
If he dont have to he dont want to
Dont stay home this time no dont say no
Dont stay home this time no dont stay home
If he dont have to he dont want to
Dont stay home this time no dont stay home

Come To Say
If youre sad and mad
But glad to be away and free
From all the pain youve known
Inside you feel youve grown
If you take your time
With every leap of faith youll find
Its easier to grow
With every step you know
Come to stay or stay away
Come to stay or stay away
If you take too long
Pretending that theres nothing wrong
Dont waste my time cause Ill be fine
Either way youll see
That who we are what will be
In the end its time to show
Step up and let me know
Come to stay or away
Come to stay or away
I hope that you can see
Nobody loves you more than me
Come to stay or stay away
Away
Away
Away
While distance grows between us
Every step you take away you take a piece of me
If you say so long
Pretending that theres something wrong
Its all for naught
cause I forgot
If in time you find
The only leap of faith was mine
Is it easier to go
Or say well never know
Come to stay or stay away
Come to stay or stay away
I hope that you can see
Nobody loves you more than me
Come to stay or stay away
Away
Away
Away - yeah, yeah
Away - yeah, yeah
Away - yeah, yeah
Away - yeah, yeah

True Love Takes Time
This song was first released on the one world album. it is the only album it has been released on.
As I travel down the road and search the empty sky
Waiting for the moment when my eyes will see
Many are the memories the mysteries of time
How they dance around and whisper endlessly
Yes Ive travelled down this road before
Where so many men have come and gone
But you know it takes time
(true love takes time)
You know that true love takes time
(true love takes time)
And its so very hard to find
(true love takes time)
You know that love takes time
It seemed impossible that I could care again
So it seemed I had forgotten how to give
What is this miracle that brings me back my dreams
All at once I can remember how to live
Yes Ive travelled down this road before
Where so many men have come and gone
But you know it takes time
(true love takes time)
You know that true love takes time
(true love takes time)
And its so very hard to find
(true love takes time)
You know that true love takes time
I have been too much alone for oh so many years
Looking for someone to sing with me
Sweet harmony
My heart is open now and tender to the touch
But there is love enough to heal me in your hands
Ill give you all my nights
All my sun and rainy days
Ill give you all the time it takes to understand
Weve travelled down this road before
Where so many fools have come and gone
But you know it takes time
(true love takes time)
You know that true love takes time
(true love takes time)
And its so very hard to find
(true love takes time)
You know that true love takes time
(true love takes time)
(true love takes time)
(true love takes time)

One Step To Fate
Now its time to break the spell
Futures written down
Is it tears or happiness
Whats your fate - time will tell
Is it left or is it right
Elect the road youll take
Will you see the other side
Take a ride - take a ride to see
Theres no excuses if its badness
So many ways it can go wrong
And if it happens to be gladness
Then you can say that you have won
That you have won
One step to fate - why dont you follow me
One step to fate - I know its near
One step to fate - no powers over me
One step to fate - it only takes one step to fate
The time is now its make or break
The turning of the tide
This is the way it has to be
Live your life to the edge
Could be bad you know it might
The missions under way
Now youve reached the other side
Open up - open up your eyes
No more excuses if its badness
So many ways that have gone wrong
Not always happens to be gladness
Which ever way you know youve won
You know youve won
One step to fate, ...
With a touch of sadness
Dreams can fade away
Laughter is my passion
Never cried away
One step to fate, ...

Down On Love
Some people stay all alone and hide
They dont even want to know the reason why
Theyve given up on finding someone new
But new love comes, its gonna come for you
When true love comes, its gonna comfort you
Now you say youve got a broken heart
You oughta know this side of love can leave you torn apart
Dry your eyes cause your hearts gonna mend
And maybe tonight youll fall in love again
Yeah, maybe tonight youl fall in love again
But I know, I know that youre down on love
But youre wrong, so wrong
To be down on love
Now love seems so far away
Your skies are so cloudy
And the tears come like fallin rain
Face up to it and dont pretend
And maybe tonight youll fall in love again
Yeah, maybe tonight youll fall in love again
Just once in a life youll realize
When love takes two, only one heart cries
But youre wrong, so wrong to be down on love
You know youre not the only one
See Ive been down on love
In matters of the heart
You better know before you start
You cant get down on love
So always be prepared
To be alone and a little scared
But never down on love
You see you cant stay down forever, girl
Down on love
Come on, now
Dont get down on love
This aint right baby, no
Down on love
Dont you go through life livin down on love
Down on love
Dont you go through life livin down on love
Down on love
Dont you go through life down on love
Down on love
Down on love

Road To Nowhere
I tried to hang on for as long as I could
But now I can see that it just aint no good
Our love it has wasted
Right down to the core
Whatever we had
We dont have anymore
Youve got to get off a road to nowhere
Youve got to get off a road to nowhere
Well I tried and I tried to make things work out right
But I guess were two people who cant help but fight
Your eyes they are open
And oh so are mine
We both need our freedom
Dont you think its about time
Im trying to get off this road to nowhere
Im trying to get off this road to nowhere
(lead)
Thank you for the good times weve had in the past
But we both know enough to know good times dont last
Baby youre just no good for me
And Im no good for you
Lets not waste our time talkin
We both know what to do
Weve got to get off this road to nowhere
Its time to get off this road to nowhere
Youve got to get off this road to nowhere
Weve got to get off this road to nowhere

Until Its Time For You To Go
(words & music by buffy sainte-marie)
Youre not a dream
Youre not an angel
Youre a woman
Im not a king,
Im a man,
Take my hand
Well make a space
In the lives that we planned
And here well stay
Until its time for you to go
Yes, were diffrent worlds apart
Were not the same
We laughed and played
At the start like in a game
You could have stayed
Outside my heart
But in you came
And here youll stay
Until its time for you to go
Dont ask why,
Dont ask how
Dont ask forever,
Love me now
This love of mine
Had no beginning
It has no end
I was an oak,
Now Im a willow
Now I can bend
And tho Ill never
In my life see you again
I still stay
Until its time for you to go

Dont You
I could tear your walls down as I chip at who you are now
Dont you
You ever let me know how
And I could break your heart down as I tell you that youve burned out
Dont you
You want to let it go
Oh, I might scream and shout now as I feel you pressing down on
Dont you
You walk upon my heels now
You walk on
And I should call your soul out but I feel Ive gained control now
Dont you
You tell me what to do as you
You twist and turn your thoughts around
Oh, this road its getting long
Stones, dont you
Theyre getting harder and youre slipping slowly further
Youre slipping slowly further
Youre slipping further than youve been before
But I dont need to know how
And I dont need to blow out your candle
Its only burning at both ends
But your moods they wash away
No need to dose your eyes today
You just take your
Your deeper breath youre going
Your deeper breath youre going
Under this time
Its under this time
You, youve got to go now
Wont you, youve got to go not
And dont you, you know it
Dont you, you know it
Youve got to go now
Dont you, youve gotta go now

Lay Down Sally
By eric clapton, marcy levy and george terry
There is nothing that is wrong
In wanting you to stay here with me.
I know youve got somewhere to go,
But wont you make yourself at home and stay with me?
And dont you ever leave.
Lay down, sally, and rest you in my arms.
Dont you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, sally, no need to leave so soon.
Ive been trying all night long just to talk to you.
The sun aint nearly on the rise
And we still got the moon and stars above.
Underneath the velvet skies,
Love is all that matters. wont you stay with me?
And dont you ever leave.
Chorus
I long to see the morning light
Coloring your face so dreamily.
So dont you go and say goodbye,
You can lay your worries down and stay with me.
And dont you ever leave.

Style It Takes
Youve got the money, Ive got the time
You want your freedom, make your freedom mine
cause Ive got the style it takes
And money is all that it takes
Youve got connections, Ive got the art
You like attention and I like your looks
And I have the style it takes
And you know the people it takes
Why dont you sit right over there
Well do a movie portrait
Ill turn the camera on
And I wont even be there
A portrait that moves, you look great I think
Ill put the empire state building on your wall
For 24 hours glowing on your wall
Watch the sun rise above it in your room
Wallpaper art, a great view
Ive got a brillo box and I say its art
Its the same one you can buy at any supermarket
cause Ive got the style it takes
And youve got the people it takes
This is a rock group called the velvet underground
I show movies on them, do you like their sound
cause they have a style that grates
And I have art to make
Lets do a movie here next week
We dont have sound but youre so great
You dont have to speak
Youve got the style it takes, kiss
Youve got the style it takes, eat
Youve got the style it takes, couch
Youve got the style it takes, kiss

Do I Have To?
(tennant/lowe)
-----------------
I dont care what youve said, and I mean it
I dont care what youve shared, cause Ive seen it
Whos to judge if youre wrong? this is a bad time
Just as long as you break his heart and not mine
Tell him youre a liar, tell him Im a saint
Say its much too early, or just too late
Tell him that youre weak, beg him to be strong
Say youre very sorry but you were wrong
Do I have to? dont say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? dont say!
Do I need to love you?
Its a fatal mistake, and you know it
That youre dying to make; youll pay for it
Its already too late, go on, admit it
Tell him its a problem, tell him its too hard
Say youve phoned your best friend and scotland yard
Swear that therell be murder, tell him that Im ill
Say you know its blackmail, but that dont kill
Do I have to? dont say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? dont say
That I need to love you?
Do I have to? oh, dont say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? dont say
Do I need to love you?
I know what you assume about me
I hurt, but do I have to bleed?
Do I have to? dont say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? dont say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? dont say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? dont say
That I need to love you?
Do I have to?
Do I have to?
Dont say
Do I have to?
Love you?

You Gotta Stop

Baby youve been lying to me now Im onto you
Its the same old song but it doesnt ring true
Thats right youre wrong again
Time to change and put you on your own again
Youve had your way too long
Time for me to be moving on
You gotta stop, youre wrong again
Stop ... that song again
Youve been steppin out wild and fancy free
Now youve had your fun and youre running back to me
It just cant be if theres no harmony
Then stop!
Thats all lets break it up
Youve had me fooled now Im wakin up
I see right through your lies
You made me open my eyes
You gotta stop, youre wrong again
Stop ... that song again
Its too late now Ive made up my mind
Being here with you is just a waste of time
Nothing to say so Ill be on my way
Stop!
You gotta stop, youre wrong again
Stop ... that song again
Its too late now Ive made up my mind
Being here with you is just a waste of time
It just cant be if theres no harmony
Then stop! stop! youre wrong again
Stop that song again

Dont Walk Away
I know what youre doing
You dont want to put the hurt on someone
Youve been trying to convince yourself
Youre better off if you just turn and run
But Im gonna hold on tight
Ive got a feeling
Youll only happen once to me
And no one, not even you
Is ever gonna make you wrong for me
Dont walk away
Or are you looking for a price to pay
Is that your master plan
Dont walk away
Ill do everything to make you stay
Ive got to make a stand
Dont walk away
Im not afraid
Dont walk away
I dont know where youre going
But I know what youve got on your mind
And I think your fear is showing
You dont leave things like fear behind
And I hate to be the one
To break it to you that
Were only human after all
I can mend a broken wing
Ill give you everything I have
Dont walk away
Or are you looking for a price to pay
Is that your master plan
Dont walk away
Ill do everything to make you stay
Ive got to make a stand
Dont walk away
Im not afraid
Dont walk away
You used to be the one
Who used to be so strong
What happened to your rationale
Your heart is on the line
It happens all the time
Dont walk away
Dont walk away
Dont walk away
Or are you looking for a price to pay
Is that your master plan
Dont walk away
Ill do everything to make you stay
Ive got to make a stand
Dont walk away
Im not afraid
Dont walk away

This may be a fantasy

Time and time again

More than friends

And all of my time
But now youre actin shady
Is it all in my mind?

Dont leave, dont leave
Dont leave me alone

Oh, oh, oh, mmm, yeah oh oh oh

Lyrics:klaus meine, herman rarebell
Shes the one, thats what I thought
When our love had just begun
But times have changed
And is better go
Because its gonna be too late
And all my love will turn to hate
Youve always known
That music is my life
And I live just for rockn roll
No one can make me change my mind
cause I just want to live my life
Alright dont want me to stay
Alright have it your way
Alright Im leaving tonight
Alright woman, Ill get out of your sight
Youre still the one
But youve shown me
How independent youve become
Dont tell me you need, you need me
To be your ever faithful strong lovin man
Dont tell me Im wrong
I gotta go my way
And youll see, where I belong
You live your life and I live mine
I bet, you will turn out fine
Alright dont want me to stay
Alright have it your way
Alright Im leaving tonight
Alright woman, Ill get out of your sight
Alright dont want me to stay
Alright have it your way
Alright Im leaving tonight
Alright woman, Ill get out of your sight
Alright dont want me to stay

More Than Love
Every morning takes a chance, it might not come around
So its maybe coming later
A preacher man on my t.v.
Says hes got the streets for me
And prays you write the letter
Heavenly father tell me how its gonna be
So that I can try to make it better
Restless bars, you and I suppose they are
For blowing it all away
Thats why I say
It takes more than love to get it on
You know it takes more than strength to carry on
It takes more than words to get it wrong
It takes more than love to get it on
Making us crazy, burnin our bridges
Taking them out one at a time
Goodbyes you know dont come easy
Did you wanna go, for the thrill of it all
Why dyou wanna go cause you had no reason
For blowin it all away
It takes more than love to get it on
You know it takes more than strength to carry on
It takes more than words to get it wrong
It takes more than love to get it on
Ships are sailing and you know your aim is true
The figureheads have broken in your mind
You paint yourself a picture, and it turns to black and white
And settle with the people one more time
Chorus to fade

Whatever It Takes
(brian greenway/myles goodwyn)
Published by mfg sing sing music/socan - ascap/beeg tunes/frankly blond music - bmi
With all my heart, Im in love with you
If you know me, you know its true
I wont play around, the way that others do
And I can only say, Ill dedicate my life to you
Whatever it takes, Ill take my time with you
Whatever it means, I mean to see it through
To feel this way, and to know its right
A sense of peace, when you hold me tight
We understand, all that love could be
To know you care, to know how much you mean to me
Whatever it takes, Ill take my time with you
Whatever it means, I mean to see it through
To fall to pieces, would go against the rules
And for all we know, this feeling will show
I believe our love will grow
Whatever it takes, Ill take my time with you
Whatever your dreams, Ill share those dreams with you
Wherever this leads, Ill walk that road with you
Whatever it takes, Ill take my time with you
Whatever it means, I mean to see it through
Whatever it takes, Ill take my time with you

If You Think I Dont Need You

If you think I dont need you
Then take a look in my eyes
Maybe these aint raindrops
Falling out of the sky
Since you been gone
Ive been so alone
If you think I dont need you
Then baby youre wrong
If you think I dont love you
What could I do to prove to you baby
My love is true
I sing the same old song
Since youve been gone
If you think I dont love you
Then baby youre wrong
My life aint been the same since you left me
I aint had a wink of sleep in seven days
I dont know what to do Im going crazy
I just walk the floor at night and call your name
If you think I dont do right
Ill change my ways
Ill do like you want me to, Ill be your slave
Since you been gone
Ive been so alone
If you think I dont need you
Well baby youre wrong
If you think I dont do right
Ill change my ways
Ill do like you want me to, Ill be your slave
Since you been gone
Ive been so alone

Were not here for a long time

And I know how hard youve been workin
But now its time to play
Tell that wolf waitin at your door
Hell just have to wait some more
Were not here for a long time
Were here for a good time
Some say the world is ending
It might just come to pass
Aint no use in pretending
Tonight could be the last
Tell the mailman to hold the mail
Get ready to wag your tail
Were not here for a long time
Were here for a good time
Some say the world is ending
Who knows if its true?

Dont Turn Me Away
You and I dont have to hurry
Take your time now dont you worry
Let me know what youre going through
Theres a troubled look on your face
And it would only take the time
It takes, for me to talk to you
And now and then weve got to question
Am I right, I may be wrong
And the only way we can work it out
Weve got to try to give and take
And it will only take the time
It takes for me to talk to you
But dont turn me away
Open up your eyes now
Making up will only take a minute
Dont turn me away
Listen what your heart say
Making up will only take a minute
Breaking up is hard to turn around
You cant be living in emptiness
Youve been lonely too long
But dont go making me promises
When you know that youre wrong
Youre not true
So when you find out where your heart is
Let me know
Ill be waiting for you
You and I dont have to hurry
Take your time now dont you worry
Let me know what youre going through
Theres a troubled look on your face
And it would only take the time
It takes, for me to talk to you
But dont turn me away
Open up your eyes now
Making up will only take a minute
Dont turn me away
Listen what your heart say
Making up will only take a minute
But you know, well you know
