THOSE GOOD OLD DREAMS
As a child I was known for make believin'
All alone I created fantasies
As I grew people called it self-deceiving
But my heart helped me hole the memories
As I walk through the world I find around me
Something new yet familiar's in the air
I feel it everywhere
Like a child's eyes on a Christmas night
I'm looking at you now
Findin' answers to my prayers
It's a new day for those good old dreams
One by one it seems they're comin' true
Here's the morning that my heart had seen
Here's the morning that just had to come through
Same old stage but what a change of scene
No more dark horizons, only blue
It's a new day for those good old dreams
All my life I've dreamed of lovin' you
You're a spark of a long forgotten fire
You're a touch of a slowly growin' wind
You're a taste of the ever-changing seasons
Tellin' me there are some things that don't end
We have left all the darkness far behind us
All those hopes that we had along the way
Have made it to this day
Like an old love song gone for much too long
You hear it once again
And it carries you away
It's a new day for those good old dreams
One by one it seems they're comin' true
Here's the morning that my heart had seen
Here's the morning that just had to come through
Same old stage but what a change of scene
No more dark horizons, only blue
It's a new day for those good old dreams
All my life I've dreamed of you
(I've dreamed of you)
It's a new day for those good old dreams
And it's all because of you
STRENGTH OF A WOMAN
You've been so quiet lately
Sometimes I wonder has the cat got your tongue
You seem to be a thousand miles away
Don't look me in the eyes and say it's OK
Don't lie
I've got this funny feeling, baby
That it's gonna be that time again
When you have the need for someone else
I know you better than you know yourself
Sometimes it takes the strength of a woman
To understand the weakness of her man
It's gonna take the strength of this woman
To keep fighting for the living of her man
And darlin' when you've been satisfied
And it isn't new to you no more
Think of me, I'll be here alone
Waitin' for you to find your way back home
Sometimes it takes the strength of a woman
To understand the weakness of her man
It's gonna take the strength of this woman
To keep fighting for the living of her man
Oh I know how hard you tried
To hide this all from me
But if you keep a silent heart
I can't give you what you need
So hold me close, and hold me tight
Let's say goodnight, and never say goodbye
Sometimes it takes the strength of a woman
To understand the weakness of her man
It's gonna take the strength of this woman
To keep fighting for the living of her man
(WANT YOU) BACK IN MY LIFE AGAIN
You know it doesn't seem that long ago
That I had your love and let it go
And I really let you down I know
I'm losin' your love
I guess it took awhile for me to say
What it is you really mean to me
I've been as big a fool as I can be
For losing your love
I want you back in my life again
I don't wanna be your remember when
I want you back in my life again
Let's go back to the place where it all began
I've lived long enough with your memory
Now I know that I need you here with me
There was a time I thought I had it made
But I didn't see the price I paid
And the price gets higher everyday
And all I can say is
You're the only one who knows my heart
So let's take it right back to the start
And I won't have to play the part
Of losing your love
I want you back in my life again
I don't wanna be your remember when
I want you back in my life again
Let's go back to the place where it all began
I've lived long enough with your memory
Now I know that I need you here with me
You're the only one who knows my heart
So let's take it right back to the start
And I won't have to play the part
Of losing your love
I want you back in my life again
I don't wanna be your remember when
I want you back in my life again
Let's go back to the place where it all began
I've lived long enough with your memory
Now I know that I want you, know that I need you
Back in my life
WHEN YOU'VE GOT WHAT IT TAKES
When you've got what I takes
You've got nothing to hide
You've got miles of feelings
And acres of pride
You've got it
You've really got it
When you know who you are
Then you live what you feel
You give what you can
And it's good when you've really got it
And when you've got it
Let it out
Let it show
Let 'em know
Inside you've got it
Let it shine like a fine tomorrow
For when you do
The feeling comes back to you
What a difference it makes
When you've got what it takes
What a difference it makes
When you've got it
When you're sure of your heart
The you give it away
And love is a promise you keep everyday
You know it
And when you know it
You begin to believe you'll do more than survive
That the best part of being is being alive
You feel it
And when you feel it
Let it out
Let it show
Let 'em know
Inside you've got it
Let it shine like a fine tomorrow
For when you do
The feeling comes back to you
What a difference it makes
When you've got what it takes
What a difference it makes
When you've got it
What a difference it makes
When you've got what it takes
What a difference it makes
When you've got it
What a difference it makes
When you've got what it takes
What a difference it makes
When you've got it
Everyday
SOMEBODY'S BEEN LYIN'
Somebody's been lyin'
Somebody's been callin; me
Tellin' me he still loves me
But not the way I thought it would be
He's makin' fun of me
And laughin' at my dreams
And I know that he keeps
Sayin' not to worry
He's tellin' me to just hold on
But he's not here to lean on
And words won't warm my bed now he's gone
It isn't easy lettin' go of what we had
And I guess I'm just scared
And I still believe him though
I'd be wiser to go on my own way
Somebody's been lyin'
And I know you're tellin' me only the things you want to
I guess I lie as much as you do
It seems so funny lettin' go of yesterday
Guess we're much too afraid
And we're much too alone
Were we just too much in love?
I BELIEVE YOU
I believe you
When you say that you will reach into the sky
And steal a star so you can put it on my finger
I believe you
Baby, I believe you
I believe you
When you say that every time that we make love
Will be the first time we've made love
And every act of love will please you
Baby, I believe you
Blind faith makes me follow you
I'd live in a cave if you wanted to
Just ask me and I'll marry you
You don't have to sell me
Cause you overwhelm me
I've made up my mind for a lifetime
I believe you
When you swear your love will keep on growin' strong
And that forever isn't long enough to love me like you need to
Baby, I believe you
Baby, I believe you
Honey, I love you
Blind faith makes me follow you
I'd live in a cave if you wanted to
Just ask me and I'll marry you
You don't have to sell me
Cause you overwhelm me
I've made up my mind for a lifetime
I believe you
When you say you'll fill my body with your soul
And love will grow into a freckled little girl who looks like we do
Baby, I believe you
Baby, I believe you
Honey, I love you
TOUCH ME WHEN WE'RE DANCING
Play us a song we can slow dance on
We want to hold each other
Play us a groove so we hardly move
Just let our hearts beat together
Oh, baby, cause it feels so good
When we're close like this
Whisper in my ear and let me steal a kiss
Come on and touch me when we're dancin'
You know you've got that lovin' touch
Woah, touch me when we're dancin'
I wanna feel you when I'm fallin' in love
Tonight's the night and it feels so right
My heart is sayin' it to me
You're the one I've waited for so long
So let your love flow through me
Oh, baby cause it feels so good
Just to be this close
You've got me up so high
I could fly coast to coast
Come on and touch me when we're dancin'
You know you've got that lovin' touch
Woah, touch me when we're dancin'
I wanna feel you when I'm fallin' in love
instrumental
Touch me when we're dancin'
You know you've got that lovin' touch
Woah, touch me when we're dancin'
I wanna feel you when I'm fallin' in love
WHEN IT'S GONE (IT'S JUST GONE)
Where's the word for the sadness
Where's the poetry in the pain
