A girl like me

What you get is what you see.
Let me tell you basically
This is how it's gotta be.
Can't *!!* with a girl like me.
Can't change my destiny.
So if you wanna get next to me
Gotta treat me faithfully.
Can't *!!* with a girl like me.

Two o'clock and I'm all alone,
Hear you on the telephone
Telling me another lie;
Said that you'd be working late,
Asking me if I could wait.
Run that by me one more time,
Keep me hanging on the line,
But you're running out of time.
Might have been a fool for love,
But I'm not blind.

If you're looking for a plaything,
An every other day thing,
I am not the one for you.
I'm not looking for a part time,
Give me half your heart kind,
Tell me what you're gonna do.
Look into my eyes,
Let me tell you one more time,
I need everything,
That's how it's gonna be
With a girl like me.
With a girl like me.

Broken dreams and promises,
Gotta be much more than this.
I don't have to compromise.
Been around enough to know
When it's time to let go.
Do I have to say goodbye?
Let me make it clear to you,
Only one thing left to do,
You better understand
'Cos every word is true.

If you're looking for a plaything,
An every other day thing,

A world without you

I know that you can hear the rhythm of the rain
Although we're miles apart.
I know you feel my pain.
I try to be so strong;
I try to carry on,
But since you left the sun don't seem to shine.
My tears are falling on the words you wrote to me.
I wish that somehow they could take me where I wanna be.
It seems so long ago
You held me when I cried.
For now I just pretend you're by my side, oh yeah.

Everything that I touch turns to blue
When I'm living in a world without you.
I'm going crazy, baby.
I am missing you.
Can't imagine all I go through
When I'm living in a world without you.
I'm not alone, I know that you can feel it, too.

I try and watch a movie, but you're all that I can see,
And in my dreams I know I always see you constantly.
But then the dream comes to an end and I'm alone,
And now I can't seem to let this feeling go, oh baby.

Everything I touch turns to blue
When I'm living in a world without you.
I'm going crazy, baby.
I am missing you.
Can't imagine all I go through
When I'm living in a world without you.
I'm not alone, I know that you can feel it, too.

I try to be so strong;
I try to carry on,
But since you left the sun don't seem to shine.

Everything I touch turns to blue
When I'm living in a world without you.
I'm going crazy, baby.
I am missing you.
Can't imagine all I go through
When I'm living in a world without you.
I'm not alone, I know that you can feel it, too.

What can I do without you, baby?
Living without you.

I'm going crazy, missing you, baby.
Living without you, living without you.

Been There, Done That

I've been there, done that.
Been there, done that.
I've been there, done that.

Gotta take some time, say what's on my mind
Before I get too close to you.
'Cos I feel that I'm about to cross the line
And there's no going back once I do.
So here's the deal:
Never thought that I'd fall in so deep;
Am I pushing you out of your depth?
How do you feel?
Gotta know that you're playing for keeps
'Cos I won't accept anything less.

'Cos I've been there, done that.
Don't wanna get hurt again matter of fact.
I refuse to go back
To half-hearted promises, simple as that.

I've been there, done that.

Now I don't wanna rush,
Get too into us, I need a little more from you.
I don't mean to fuss but this is serious
And I hope that you feel that way, too.

Never thought that I'd fall in so deep.
Boy, the time has come for you to confess;
Gotta know you're playing for keeps
'Cos I won't accept anything less.

Been there, done that.
Don't wanna get hurt again
Matter of fact.
I refuse to go back
To half-hearted promises, simple as that.

Been there, done that.
I don't wanna get hurt again
Matter of fact.
I refuse to go back
To half-hearted promises, simple as that.

Tell me straight, 'cos I ain't gonna wait
For you to break my heart.
I wanna hear it,
Say that you mean it,
Before we go too far.

I don't wanna get hurt again
Matter of fact.
I refuse to go back
To half-hearted promises, simple as that.

Been there, done that.
I don't wanna get hurt again
Matter of fact.
I refuse to go back
To half-hearted promises, simple as that.

Better Be Careful

I was going crazy
Seeing you around.
And, baby, all I'm asking:
Are we getting down?

'Cos I've seen you looking over at me,
And I know you really like what you see, yeah, yeah, yeah.

You better be careful.
You better beware.
'Cos I'm on the look out, baby, and I will be there.

Something in your eyes, yeah, yeah.
Something in your eyes.
Something in your eyes, yeah, yeah.
Something in your eyes.

Suddenly I realise
I didn't know your name.
Honey, when I look at you
I'm gonna play the fame.

'Cos I've seen you looking over at me
And I know you really like what you see, yeah, yeah, yeah.

You better be careful.
You better beware.
'Cos I'm on the look out, baby, and I will be there.

You better be careful.
You better beware.
'Cos I'm on the look out, baby, and I will be there.

Something in your eyes, yeah, yeah.
Something in your eyes.
Something in your eyes, yeah, yeah.
Something in your eyes.

Now that we have started
Things we didn't plan,
If you wanna play now,
Catch me if you can.

'Cos I've seen you looking over at me
And I know you really like what you see, yeah, yeah, yeah.

You better be careful.
You better beware.
'Cos I'm on the look out, baby, and I will be there.

You better be careful.
You better beware.
'Cos I'm on the look out, baby, and I will be there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah (repeat to fade).

She Was A Friend Of Mine

I trusted her with him,
That's where the story begins.
We talked of boys and men,
They all came second then.
I made a sacrifice,
I trusted all her advice.
There was no need to fight.
Things were so simple then.
One by one she broke her promises.
I guess she thought that she could take my man,
And I just gotta let her know
His love is for me,
But that's the way the story goes.

She was a friend of mine,
Or so I thought at the time.
How could I be so blind
To trust her with my man?
She fooled me with her eyes
And hid behind a disguise.
I read between the lines
And now I understand.

She said she'd make it right
And talk to him late at night.
Told me to take it slow,
But little did I know
She had a master plan.
I had my head in the sand,
But now it's plan to see.
She chose him over me.
Every day – she's smiling in my face.
But every night – she'd tryin' to take my place.
She said she'd always be right there for me
And now I can see
That kind of help I just don't need.

She was a friend of mine,
Or so I thought at the time.
How could I be so blind
To trust her with my man?
She fooled me with her eyes
And hid behind a disguise.
I read between the lines
And now I understand.

Never thought friends could be so cruel.
Never thought you could break all the rules.
Now it's you that looks like a fool
'Cause what goes around
Comes around.

She was a friend of mine,
Or so I thought at the time.
How could I be so blind
To trust her with my man?
She fooled me with her eyes
And hid behind a disguise.
I read between the lines
And now I understand.

 

Spell It O.U.T.

If I spell it O.U.T.
Will you get the message finally?
I don't wanna fight, you see,
But it's the end for you and me.
Sorry that it had to be
But that's the reality.
Do I have to spell it O.U.T.
For you to see?

Dream on, in your own little world;
Keep thinking I'm your girl.
Baby, I wish you well,
But, boy, the fact remains
My story's still the same,
Hard as it is to tell.
I've said it all a thousand times,
Now I gotta be cruel to be kind.

If I spell it O.U.T.
Will you get the message finally?
I don't wanna fight, you see,
But it's the end for you and me.
Sorry that it had to be
But that's the reality.
Do I have to spell it O.U.T.
For you to see?

You don't get what I say.
You want it all your way;
Hear what you wanna hear.
So now I'm showing you.
This time we're really through.
The writing on the wall is clear.
You'll never make me change my mind,
So I'm gonna be crual to be kind.

If I spell it O.U.T.
Will you get the message finally?
I don't wanna fight, you see,
But it's the end for you and me.
Sorry that it has to be
But that's the reality.
Do I have to spell it O.U.T.
For you to see?

You know I gotta
Spell it O.U.T.
Gotta tell you now.
End for you and me.
You know I gotta
Spell it O.U.T.
Gotta hear what I say.
If I spell it O.U.T.
Will you get the message finally?
I don't wanna fight you see.
It's the end of you and me.
Sorry that it has to be
But that's the reality.
Do I have to spell it O.U.T?
Spell O.U.T.
Do I have to spell it O.U.T.
For you to see?

 

Sunshine On A Rainy Day

I see you in the darkness, I see you in the light.
I see your eyes a-shining in through the night.
Make me feel, make me feel like I belong.
Don't leave me, you won't leave me all alone.
Cast your eyes like summer skies,
Bluer than the ocean, clearer than the skies.

Sunshine on a rainy day
Makes me soul, makes my soul trip, trip, trip away.
Sunshine on a rainy day
Makes my soul, makes my soul trip, trip, trip away.

You touch me with your spirit, you touch me with your heart.
You touch me in the darkness, I feel it start.
Make me feel, make you feel so unreal, so unreal,
Like the wind in the desert, like a moon on a sea.

Sunshine on a rainy day
Makes me soul, makes my soul trip, trip, trip away.

Take My Breath Away

If I told you how I feel about you
Would you say the same?
And if I wrote it in a letter
Would you keep it or throw it away?
I never thought I'd feel the way I'm feeling lately
When everything you seem to do just drives me crazy.

Every waking day, you take my breath away.
With every word you say, you take my breath away.
You look at me that way, baby come what may.
I hope you'll always know
How you take my breath away, how you take my breath away.

If you told me how you feel about me, things I did not know;
You said you fill my heart with all your love until it overflows.
I don't know they way you feel, but boy I'm hoping.
I always used to hide away, but now I'm open.

Every waking day, you take my breath away.
With every word you say, you take my breath away.
You look at me that way, baby come what may.
I hope you'll always know
How you take my breath away, how you take my breath away.

Take my breath away, take my breath away, take my breath away.
Every waking day, you take my breath away.
Every word you say, you take my breath away.
You look at me that way, baby come what may.
I hope you'll always know
How you take my breath away, how you take my breath away.
How you take my breath away.

 

We're Not Gonna Sleep Tonight

It's something about your friends, are always there for you,
Help you with the bad times and they'll see you through.
Being with a man is never quite the same
'Cos we just have some fun and merely play the game.

I don't know where we will go
But I know we're gonna stop the show.

Girls are on the town tonight,
Nothing can stop us.
You can see it in our eyes that
We're not gonna sleep tonight.

We're gonna get down tonight,
See if we can make you blush.
We can be mysterious and
We're not gonna sleep tonight.

Tonight, we're not gonna sleep.

We will find the time to party all night long.
Now that we're together, we just can't go wrong.
Dancing in the street and making lots of noise.
People want to join, especially the boys.

But there's no way; it's just the girls
For tonight, we're in our own world.

Girls are on the town tonight,
Nothing can stop us.
You can see it in our eyes that
We're not gonna sleep tonight.

We're gonna get down tonight,
See if we can make you blush.
We can be mysterious and
We're not gonna sleep tonight.

We're not gonna sleep.
We're not gonna sleep tonight.
All right.
We're not gonna sleep tonight.
We're not gonna sleep.

Girls are on the town tonight.

What I Am

I'm not aware of too many things.
I know what I know if you know what I mean.
I'm not aware of too many things.
I know what I know if you know what I mean.

Philosophy is the talk on a cereal box.
Religion is the smile on a dog.

I'm not aware of too many things.
I know what I know if you know what I mean.
Do ya?

Choke me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep.

What I am is what I am,
You're what you are – or what?
What I am is what I am,
You're what you – or what?

I'm not aware of too many things.
I know what I know if you know what I mean.

Philosophy is a walk on the slippery rocks.
Religion is the light in a fog.

I'm not aware of too many things.
I know what I know if you know what I mean.
Do ya?

Choke me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep.
Choke me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep.

Na na na na.

Do do, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

Choke me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep.

What Took You So Long?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Oh, talk to me, can't you see
I'll help you work things out.
Oh, don't wanna be your enemy
And I don't want to scream and shout.

'Cos, baby, I believe in honesty
A man that's strong and true.
I shouldn't have to say now, baby,
That I believe in you.

What took you so long?

What took you forever to see I'm right?
You know, I treat you so good;
I make you feel fine.
You know, I'll never give it up this time.
Oh, no, no.

You didn't know what to say.
But, honey, I understand
When you take my hand everything's OK.
