Fallen Angel

Ride along lady woman of the night
Looking for a place to go
Dancing on storm clouds, hiding from the light
Looking for an easy Joe
You just wanna play around
Searching for a higher ground

Walking every side street kicking up the leaves
Running from the pouring rain
Standing on the corners, shaking from the cold
Only got yourself to blame
You just wanna play around
Searching for a higher ground

Someone who could make you happy
Someone who would care
You've broken your life beyond repair
You're reaching for every rainbow
You're wondering why
Don't reach out for love 'cause it's a lie

You've got your number on the wall
Of some deserted station hall
Is this your only claim to fame
Will you just play the waiting game
But you won't stop the things you do
Some night the evil get to you

Falling keep on falling I keep on falling in love

Now I don't mind all this running around
Seems I've been doing it most of my life
My music's been kind but some days I find
It brings me two kinds of trouble and three kinds of strife

So don't try to compare it 'cause I just want to
Share it with some people I like to call friends
There ain't nothing bad and no need to feel sad
And there's certainly no need to make amends

It won't do you no harm and there's no cause for alarm
I won't be prayin' for help from above
If the only thing wrong with rock and roll
Is that I keep on falling in love

City lights are burning in the distance
Seems they're tellin' me to hurry home
But I can't push these wheels of mine no harder
So hold on baby for me one more night alone

There's time for me to take just one look over my shoulder
One last glance at what's been going on
'Cause I'll be there at first light in the morning
We'll pick up the pieces baby then we'll be long gone

Pick up the pieces and run with me as fast as you can
You know you always said I was the man
Pick up the pieces let's do it now let's say our last farewell
Tomorrow may be too late as far as I can tell

Lady oh lady you're driving me crazy
You brought out the devil in me
You turned on my fire with words of desire
You sure put the lovin' sure put the lovin' on me

You're sending me reeling with love that you're giving
Spinning my poor heart around
The feelings that should be, have finally saved me
You sure put the lovin' sure put the lovin' on me

Ain't no use in trying I never would deny that
I love you love you
Ain't no doubt about it I just can't live without it
I love you love you
Yes I love you, I really love you

Don't know what it is that you're putting down
I only know it ain't no game
I only know what you're doing to me
And baby you're the one to blame

Lady oh lady you're driving me crazy
You're flying me high with your eyes
No use in trying ain't no use denying
You sure put the lovin' sure put the lovin' on me
Put your lovin' on me

Alone again I feel so alone again
With this emptiness I just can't hide
Picture me with a broken heart
See the tears run down my face

Everything I had has gone
Loneliness... still lingering on
Everything I thought was mine...
Come back to me can't, we try it one more time,
Come back to me

I know I'll find another love in time
But you'll always be there in the back of my mind
The power of love can bring such pain
I still love you I just love you

Alone again I'm so alone again
With nothing but you in my mind
Can't you see what you've done to my life
What can I do to win you back again

Everything I had has gone
Loneliness... still lingering on
Everything I thought was mine...
Come back to me can't we try it one more time
Come back to me, take a piece of my heart
Come back to me

Whad' ya say...
Lady you're tyin' me down
Turning my heart to stone
And I can't help feeling I'd better off
Back out in the streets alone

Baby you're hurtin' me, deserting me again
I looked for your loyalty
And found a fickle friend

We could try to get back on the right track baby
Or leave it, just throw it away
We could pick it up, pack it up, make up or
Break up let's try again, whad'ya say

Faced with this situation, there's two things we can do
A lot of it is up to us, but most of it's down to you
You know we shouldn't play with love
It's a dangerous thing to do
So let's not get agony and ecstasy confused
Whad'ya say

Gonna take my heart and my soul
And lay it onto someone's daughter
Gonna give out all that I got
To the woman who sits by the water

Gonna spend the rest of my time
With the woman by the winding river
Gonna let her know, I'll give her all
That I got forever and ever

She knows what I like, she knows what I need
And babe let me tell you she'll give it all to me
Save it, save it, save it all for me
Save it, save it, save it all for me
Save it, save it, save it all for me
Save it, save it, you gotta save it all for me

Gonna spend the rest of my time
With the woman by the winding river
Gonna let her know, I'll give her all
That I got forever and ever

Gonna take my heart and my soul
And lay it onto someone's daughter
Gonna give out all that I got
To the woman who sits by the water

You gotta make up your mind
'Cause you're runnin' out of time
You know it's your game and the winner takes all
It's time for you to realize
There's gonna be no compromise
It's gotta be love or nothing at all

I've thought about a new beginning
But you know your heart's not in it
There's something inside that ain't hearing my call
And each new misty morning
Brings a constant warning
It's gotta be love or nothing at all

It's no good climbing in the back seat in the name of love
Or tryin' to be somebody that you know you're not
Sneakin' out the back door at dead of night
'Cause you're never gonna find out what it's really like

How strange when you know the feeling that something ain't right
You're fooled by the need of being, you're blind to the light
Don't ask where the stranger leads you, he'll show you the way
Just go out and make your conquest, you've something to say
I'm alive, I'm alive and I'm me
I've just got to be free, I'm alive to the world

There's been so much bad time wasted, just look and you'll see
We've got so much going for us, it's not just a dream
Let's look and we'll find the answers, to questions I've made
We'll reach out for new beginnings, let love show the way
I'm alive, I'm alive and I'm me
I've just got to be free, I'm alive to the world

Let's leave our past behind
A little hurt can make us blind
And we'll just smile and say
We've found a better way 'Cause now we know that we're alive
I'm alive, I'm alive and I'm me
I've just got to be free, I'm alive to the world

Fallen Angel... Fallen Angel...
Everyone I see reminds me of you
I keep turnin' round expectin' you to be there
I keep seein' our past through my looking glass
But fallen angel where are you now

After all these years I remember the tears
As we parted you said don't forget me
You were ridin' so high now they're passin' you by
Girl I never forgot you please come and get me

Livin' without you is hard enough anyway
But knowin' you're hurtin' makes it so much worse every day
I just wanna love you
Any way that I can
But watchin' you cry wasn't part of my plan

Fallen Angel... Fallen Angel...
Tell me how did it feel in your promised land
That you chose as your pain and your pleasure
A temporary sanctuary
Oh fallen angel I am you real treasure
Fallen Angel... Fallen Angel...

Cheater, I know where you’ve been
Cheater, your lies can’t hide your sin
Cheater, don’t ask me how I’ve know
Cheater, I guess it’s time for you to go

I’m tired of chasing shadows
So lllusive in the night
And your empty words
That leave me high and dry
Now the curtain’s finally fallen
On this fantasy affair
You’ve had me for the last time
With your lies

Cheater, you’re a cheater
I know where you’ve been
Cheater, your lies can’t hide your sin
Cheater, don’t ask me how I’ve know
Cheater, I guess it’s time for you to go

The voices in the wind I heard
Kept telling me to run
Whispering a warning to my heart
And the voices deep as thunder
Tried to speak of things to come
I was blinded then
But now I see the light

Cheater, you’re a cheater
And I know where you’ve been
Cheater, mean mistreater
Your lies can’t hide your sin
Cheater, don’t ask me how I’ve know
Cheater, I guess it’s time for you to go

Cheater. I know where you’ve been
Cheater, you’re a cheater
Cheater, you’re a cheater
Cheater, I know where you’ve been
Your lies can’t hide your sins
Cheater...

Love, love, love - I’m looking for love
Love, love, love

When I was only sixteen
Well, give it take a year or more
I’ve got to singing about
The life I’ve lead
And I threw it right out of the door
I’ve got to get some of
That heavy jive
That the old folks are talkin’ about
So I strutted my stuff
To the local club
To see what I was leaving now

Looking for love, love, love
Looking, looking for love
Love, love, love

I took my seat at
The foot of the stage
And waited for the fun to begin
And there in the light
Stood this heavy chick
With the cutest babe
That I’ve ever seen
She smiled at me
She did her dance
Took me by surprise
The way she wiggled her hips
And she shook that...
Right between the eyes

Looking for love, love, love
L.O.B, I’m looking for love
Love, love, love

After the show she came
And sat down
Said: Hi son, what’s your name?
I said: Never mind that
Think about this:
Loving’s the name of my game
She said: That’s alright
But it’ll cost you, son
I said: Tell me what’s
The price of the day
She said: Twenty dime
And a wedding ring
And everything will be O.K.

Looking for love, love, love
Looking for... love, love, love,
I’m lookin, lookin’ for love
I’m lookin’ for love
L.O.B. love, love...
Love, love, love...

I must thank Lord ??
In my hour of need
I’ve given way to a better man
But I ain’t been free
To push the hour here
In this soul of mine
I’ve burned my bridges
And I’m satisfied

The preacher’s due here
In an hour or so
To give me a reasons for
The things I know
I might have been careless and I
I might have been blind
If I’m the guilty, I’m satisfied

Oh woman, why did you
Do me wrong?
Sending me down and
I just can't get along
When daybreak comes and
I’ve reached the end of the line
I have a right to live
And I’m left to die

It all seems so hazy now
It seems so long ago
She hid the things she’d done
Or things I should know
What was I to do for
The hurting here inside
I kill for love but ????

I have a right to live
When I’m left to die
Oh, woman
I have a right to live...

At the age of eighteen
I had had enough
And by twenty-one
I decided to get tough
And then I found the door
??????

And I’ve been hurt
Ever since that day
I’ve been hurt
And I’ve lost my way
I still think I have a chance
To find your love

Well, I tried to love you
One day at a time
Each day waiting, hoping for the sign
It was clear I needed luck
More than this time

And I’ve been hurt
Ever since that day
I’ve been hurt
Well, I’ve lost my way
I still think I have a chance
To make you mine

My empty heart is
Counting all the ways
Fire and desire
Sat and count days
Will you, won’t you
When and where
Do you, don’t you, do I care
That same eternal question
Is always there
It’s always there

Before I leave town today
Well, there’s something
That I wanna say
That you regret the stormy night
You put your eyes on me

Well, you cheated on me
And you lied
And I must’ve had that
A thousand times
But I’ll be comin’ back one day
Just you wait and see

Oh, yeah, let it ride, let it ride
Let it slip, let it slide
Ride the night away
Let it ride, let it ride
Let it slip, let it slide
'Cause I’ll be coming back to stay

This time you could’ve let me live
But there’s nothing more
That I can give
You’ve stolen every day in my life
And then you threw it away

This train I’m gonna ride tonight
Is gonna carry me
Right out of your sight
But I’ll be comin’ back some time
And then you’re gonna pay

Oh won’t you take me tonight
Won’t you carry me right to the top
Taking me higher
You carry me through
The things that you know
To the end of the line
How much higher?

The last lap is mine
It’s too long as they say
You know it’s just what will be
As you’ve wavin’ goodbye
Keep rememberin’ why
The devil that got you was me

You’re the city where
I wanted to be
But the lonely spell you put on me
It’s time for you to realize
That there’s just no way

Feelings, empty feelings
Prayin’, hopin’, needin’
Just when I wanted to hold you
You’re leavin’, you’re leavin’
Leavin’, leavin’

When we meet
Every night in the bar
If I’m feelin’ alright
We’ll get high in your car
Then come morning
And you will be gone
You’re my five-minute friend
And you’ve gotta move on

And you don’t stop me
Thinkin’ my feelings
And I’m hidin’ the hurtin’ inside
And I know how you
Set my heart reelin’
As I see it and swallow my pride

Well, either you don’t give a damn
Or you don’t even care to pretend
Or you won’t spare a thought
Though you know
It must come to an end

And I’ve got those feelings...

Your love, your love, your love

I’ve got to do it
Gotta find a direction in my life
You can’t have me through it
I know that you do it
But it’s my fight

Why don’t you leave me alone
To drive down this windin’ road
I’m alive
It just doesn’t feel the same
For my love for you has changed

But your love
It never leaves me alone
For your love
Is in the world of its own
But your love
It never leaves me alone

You're sayin’ that you need me
But the words don’t come easy
Just hold on
I know that I lied
When I told you goodbye
Just keep hangin’ on
Time won’t keep waiting’
I’ve gotta do something with my life
You can’t have me through it
But I know that do it, but it’s my fight
