Taste Of Love
(Carl Dixon/Brett Walker)
Oooh yeah, taste of love
Who's the little wild one, standing
by the back door
Tangerine, marmalade, tossed from a candy store
Messy on the lipstick, easy on the eyes
Walkin' on a highwire, give the little lady a prize, oh yeah
Oooh, you set my wheels in motion,
turnin' on a crazy notion
Give me a taste of love, oooh, a little ain't enough
Don't leave me standin' at your door
Give me a taste of love, a little taste of love
I've got an appetite for more, an appetite for more, oooh
High class misfit, maybe you're a star
Run from my lovin', but you don't run far
Sparkle on the sweet stuff, shine like a laser beam
You're such a good girl, kitty needs a little cream, oooh yeah
Oooh, you set my wheels in motion,
turnin' on a crazy notion
Give me a taste of love, oooh, a little ain't enough
Don't leave me standin' at your door
Give me a taste of love, a little taste of love
I've got an appetite for more, an appetite for more, oooh
Put me on the front page, baby you're
a magazine
Livin' in a storybook, late night movie scene, oh yeah
Give me a taste of love, oooh, a little
ain't enough
Don't leave me standin' at your door
Give me a taste of love, a little taste of love
I've got an appetite for more
Give me a taste of love, oooh, a little ain't enough
Don't leave me standin' at your door, oh yeah
Give me a taste of love, a little taste of love
I've got an appetite for more, yeah, yeah yeah
Gimme a taste of love, a little taste of love
Gimme a taste of love, oooh, a little taste of love
Johnny's Got A Shotgun
(Jim Jamison/Hal McCormack)
All is quiet on the southside
Like the calm before the rain
In a world full of rage now
Too many hearts full of pain
He's been talkin' to the devil now
Say a prayer for his soul
He'll put an end to this rumor
Before it ever gets told
She sits by the window, starin' out
at the road
For the headlights comin' down the street
But there's nowhere to go
Johnny's got a shotgun, it's a dangerous
one
His finger sweats on the trigger now
It ain't no barrel of fun
I don't want to do it now
But you push me too far
There's no time to think it over
There'll be no change of heart
They got my name and my number
And a price on my head
They'll be listening for the thunder
And lookin' for a sea of red
Johnny's got a shotgun, got the law
in his hands
It's a sawed off 12 guage, he's a dangerous man
There's always two sides to a story
(there's two sides to a story)
I'm the one that they'll blame (I'm the one that they'll blame)
When mama reads the paper now (when mama reads the paper now)
I hope they mis-spell my name, oh yeah
Johnny's got a shotgun, it's a dangerous
one
His finger sweats on the trigger now
It ain't no barrel of fun
Oh, Johnny's got a shotgun, he's got the law in his hands
I'ts a sawed off 12-guage, he's a dangerous man
Johnny's got a shotgun, oh
Johnny's got a shotgun
When Love Comes Down
(Jim Jamison/Randy Cantor)
When the nights get the best of me
I turn on the lights and the tv, just for company
And all the world, it seems much colder now
As darkness comes to cover me
Then thoughts of you, they take me over
I see your face again, over and over
Baby, when I think about you, I get
lonely
When I'm not around you
Oooh baby, I'll get by this time
And I'll be alright when love comes down
When my world's about to overflow
I turn to you, unconsciously
There's no reply, no one calls my name
It's a loneliness that you can't know
Then the dreams, they take me over
Keep bringin' you back to me, over and over
Baby, when I think about you
Oooh baby, my love's all around you
Baby, I'm on fire this time
But I'll be alright when love comes down
Oh, I search the nights for you in
vain
But still the emptiness remains
Cause only your love lifts me higher and higher
Then the dreams, they take me over
Keep bringing you back to me, over and over
Baby, when I think about you
Baby, when love's all around you
Oooh baby, I'll get by this time
And I'll be alright, oh
I'll be alright when love comes down, oooh
Long Walk Home
(Jim Jamison/Randy Cantor)
Baby beware, I got a bad attitude
I'm in a desperate situation
This state of mind is nothing new
Yeah, now I've been watchin' you
And I recognize the style
You use your walk like a weapon, now
I hear the call of the wild
It's not the first time, won't be the
last
You ran from love, but you ran too fast
It's a long walk home, after midnight
The storm is comin', better jump on in
It's a long walk home, after midnight
Under the cover of love, the long walk ends
I've always faced love with caution
You're the exception to the rule
I feel a powerful temptation
An urgent message overdue
The night, it gives us license
To throw all caution to the wind
Cause we're the restless generation
We never know when we're content
It's not the first time, won't be the
last
You ran from love, but you ran too fast
It's a long walk home, after midnight
The storm is comin', better jump on in
It's a long walk home, after midnight
In the shadows is where it begins
It's a long walk home, after midnight
The clouds are rising, gonna sink or swim
It's a long walk home, after midnight
Under the cover of love
I've known that fear of love
Has shown it's face so many times before
I've tasted the tears of love
When bittersweet memories aim for the core
I'll be your cover, that's what I'm here for
Oooh yeah
It's a long walk home, after midnight
The storm is comin', better jump on in
It's a long walk home, after midnight
In the shadows is where it begins
It's a long walk home, after midnight
The clouds are rising, gonna sink or swim
It's a long walk home, after midnight
Under the cover, under the cover of love
It's a long walk home, after midnight
The storm is comin', better jump on it
It's a long walk home, after midnight
Clouds are rising, gonna sink or swim
It's a long walk home, after midnight
True Lovers
(Jim Jamison/Kenny Mims)
True lovers, stand together
Both hearts bleed when we cry
True lovers, stand forever
True lovers, you and I
When you're weak, when you need
When you lose sight of your dreams
You know you can run to me
When you're broken, when you're down and out
When the world's too much
You reach for love so desperately, yeah
True lovers, stand together
Both hearts bleed when we cry
True lovers, stand forever
True lovers, you and I
When you cry in the night
When your heart's too weak to fight
You can believe in mine
Like blind devotion, in a blinding rage
You feel a need only love can satisfy
True lovers, stand together
Both hearts bleed when we cry
True lovers, stand forever
True lovers, until we die
True lovers, stand together
Both hearts bleed when we cry
True lovers, stand forever
True lovers, true lovers, you and I
True lovers, stand together
Both hearts bleed when we cry
True lovers, stand forever
True lovers, true lovers, until we die
True lovers, stand together
Both hearts bleed when we cry
True lovers, stand forever
When you reach, when you need, stay together
True lovers, stand together
Both hearts bleed when we cry
True lovers, stand forever
True lovers, until we die
If You Walk Away
(Skip Adams/Todd Cerney)
Don't just stand there
With those guilty eyes
If you're gonna pull the trigger
I don't wanna hear no alibis
Don't try to tell me
It's your hard hard cross to bear
Cause I'm the one that's losin'
I'm not goin' anywhere
If you walk away from love
Headed down a long dark road
If you're gonna leave me now
There's somethin' you should know
It's gonna take a long long time
It's somethin' you might never find
Cause if you walk away from me
You walk away from love
Was I just dreamin'
Were you acting out a part
Is this the final curtain
Closing on my heart
So if you're going
Well then, go ahead and leave
Cause I'm not gonna beg you
Or get down on my knees
If you walk away from love
You're headed down a long dark road
If you're gonna leave me now
There's somethin' you should know
It's gonna take a long long time
It's somethin' you might never find
Cause if you walk away from me
You walk away from love
Somewhere, down the road, you'll realize
The love that you need, was right here all the time, oh
It's gonna take a long, long time
It's somethin' you might never find
Cause if you walk away from me
You walk away from love, oh
If you walk away
Cry Alone
(Jim Jamison/Kenny Mims)
I feel your spirit touch me, yet alone
I lay
I hear the silence whisper what only love can say
And I can't get over you
I think of promises broken, I think of you with him
I still need you with me girl, oh but I can't give in
But I can't get over you
So I must cry alone, until my heart
is strong
But I believe that I still love you
I cannot follow you with broken wings, no
I must cry alone
I see a light in the distance, I see
you and me
I wanna trust you so much, oh if I could only believe
Cause I can't get over you
But I must cry alone, until my heart
is strong
Oh I believe that I still love you
I cannot follow you with broken wings, no
I must cry alone, until my heart is strong
I cannot follow you with broken wings, no
I must cry alone
I think of you with him, girl
But I can't give in, I must cry alone
I Believe In Love
(Jesse Harms)
You don't know what you're lookin'
for
You can't hear that love was knockin' at your door
Cause you don't believe anymore
You can't see what's before your eyes
Words of love have just turned into bitter lies
Oh, cause you don't believe
Remember to stop before you set your
mind
On what you think is real
Think of the time you let your heart decide on me
Cause this is the way I feel
I believe in love, oh
And nothing's gonna tear me down
I believe in you
I believe that love will come around
In a world that's as tough as nails
Here's a hand to hold on to, when all else fails
But you must believe
In a world full of broken dreams
Sometimes living ain't as hard as it all seems, oh
If you just believe
I believe in love (I believe in love)
And nothing's gonna tear me down
I believe in you (I believe in you)
I believe that love will come around
I don't know what we're fighting for
Look at us, we've turned affection into war
Cause we don't believe anymore
Oh remember to stop, before you set
your mind
On what you think is real
Think of the time you let your heart decide on me
Cause this is the way I feel
I believe in love (I believe in love)
And nothing's gonna tear it down
I believe in you
I believe that love will come around
I believe in love (I believe in love)
And nothing's gonna tear it down
I believe, I believe, I believe
I believe that love will come around, oh
I believe in love (I believe in love)
Nothing's gonna tear it down
Rock Hard
(Jim Jamison/John Roth/Scott Trammell)
I've tried to make the best of both
worlds
I've tried to live on my own
I'm tired of takin' chances on love
I'm tired of being alone
There's no such thing as love at first
sight
But I'm just a little misled
I like my freedom, but I know I'm right
I let your face go straight to my head
I saw you standing there, it must have
been fate
Now just between us, let's get one thing straight
You make me rock hard, you make me rock hard, yeah
You make me rock hard, you make me rock hard, yeah
It's time to throw caution to the wind
Take your love off the shelf
I feel the need to push it to the end
It's time to see for myself
I'm just a man who likes to have some
fun
No need to run from this loaded gun
You make me rock hard, you make me rock hard, yeah
You make me rock hard, you make me rock hard, yeah
Throw it to the wind
Take your love off the shelf, yeah
And shake it up, shake it up, shake it up
You make me rock hard, yeah, oooh
Oh, shake it up, shake it up
You make me rock hard, you make me rock hard, yeah
You make me rock hard, you make me rock hard, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oooh, you make me rock hard
You make me rock, rock, rock, rock, rock, rock hard
Angry Young Man
(Jim Jamison/Kenny Mims)
In a city full of strangers, you wake
up
With fire in your eyes
But where can you turn
As you face another uncertain sunrise
There is no innocence anymore
Shout, let it out
Street fightin' angry young man
Shout, that's what it's all about
Street fightin' angry young man
It burns in your spirit, it burns in your blood
Stand up, in the name of love
Shout, and change the world
Street fightin' angry young man
Desperate for a reason
Your unsatisfied angry heart cries
But underneath your anger
Lies a cold and terrified child
There is no innocence anymore
Shout, let it out
Street fightin' angry young man
Shout, that's what it's all about
Street fightin' angry young man
It burns in your spirit, it burns in your blood
Stand up, in the name of love
Shout, and change the world
Street fightin' angry young man,
Shout, that's what it's all about
Street fightin' angry young
Street fightin' angry young man
