Wake Me Up Before You Go-GoJitterbug Jitterbug Jitterbug Jitterbug You put the boom boom into my heart You send my soul sky high when your loving starts Jitterbug into my brain Goes a bang bang bang till my feet do the same If something's bugging you If something ain't right My best friend told me what you did last night Left me sleeping in my bed I was dreaming but I should have been with you instead Wake me up before you go-go Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo Wake me up before you go-go I don't want to miss it when you hit that high Wake me up before you go-go 'Cause I'm not planning on going solo Wake me up before you go-go Take me dancing tonight I wanna hit that high You put the grey skies out of my way You make the sun shine brighter than Doris Day You turn a bright spark into flame My beats per minute never been the same 'Cause you're my lady, I'm your fool It makes me crazy when you act so cruel Come on baby lets not fight We'll go dancing everything will be alright Wake me up before you go-go Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo Wake me up before you go-go I don't want to miss it when you hit that high Wake me up before you go-go 'Cause I'm not planning on going solo Wake me up before you go-go Take me dancing tonight I wanna hit that high Cuddle up baby move in tight We'll go dancing tomorrow night It's cold out there but it's warm in bed They can dance, we'll stay at home instead Wake me up before you go-go Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo Wake me up before you go-go I don't want to miss it when you hit that high Wake me up before you go-go 'Cause I'm not planning on going solo Wake me up before you go-go Take me dancing tonight I wanna hit that high
Like A BabyForeign skies that blinded me to empty charms I crossed the ocean and fell into your arms So sure, so wrong You sang me a simple tune I took it for a song Say goodbye don't tell me why you have to go Loving you was as good as gold, as good as gold I'd love to love you, really love you But you see there's something you should know I didn't really think you'd go Because today I could have sworn I heard you say I love you I want you I need to be with you today I saw something in your face Stay here beside me I need your love to hide me You lied And now you've gone away And left me crying like a baby, like a baby
FreedomEveryday I hear a different story People saying that you're no good for me Saw your lover with another and she's making a fool of you If you loved me baby you'd deny it But you laugh and tell me I should try it Tell me I'm a baby and I don't understand But you know that I'll forgive you Just this once, twice forever 'Cos baby, you could drag me to hell and back Just as long as we're together And you do I don't want your freedom I don't want to play around I don't want nobody baby Part time love just brings me down I don't need your freedom Girl all I want right now is you Like a prisioner who has his own key But I can't escape until you love me I just go from day to day knowing all about the other boys You take my hand and tell me I'm a fool to give you all I do I bet someday baby someone does the same to you But you know that I'll forgive you Just this once, twice forever 'Cos baby, you could drag me to hell and back Just as long as we're together And you do
The Edge Of HeavenI could lock you up but I could not bear To hear you screaming to be set free I would chain you up if I thought you'd swear The only one that mattered was me, me, me I would strap you up but don't worry baby You know I wouldn't hurt you 'less you wanted me to It's too late to stop won't the heavens save me My daddy said the devil looks a lot like you Take me to the edge of heaven Tell me that my soul's forgiven Hide your babies eyes and we can Take me to the edge of heaven One last time might be forever When the passion dies It's just a matter of time Before my heart is looking for a home I'm like a maniac at the end of the day I'm like a doggy barking at the door So come and take me back to the place you stay And maybe we can do iy once more I'm dangerous but don't worry baby I get excited at the things that you do And there's a place in a dirty movie 'Cos nobody does it better than me and you Take me to the edge of heaven Tell me that my soul's forgiven Hide your babies eyes and we can Take me to the edge of heaven One last time might be forever Please don't tell me lies It's just a matter of time Before my heart is looking for a home I ain't got no more worries I'm gonna spend some time with you Loving you takes some courage And don't you think I know it, I know it, I know it, I know it Take me to the edge of heaven Tell me that my soul's forgiven Hide your babies eyes and we can Take me to the edge of heaven One last time might be forever Don't tell me lies Because believe me baby On eday you'll wake up on your own I ain't got no more worries I ain't got no more time for you Loving you takes such courage And don't you think I know it, I know it, I know it, I know it

Last ChristmasLast Christmas I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special Last Christmas I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special Once bitten and twice shy I keep my distance but you still catch my eye Tell me baby, do you recognise me? Well it's been a year it doesn't surprise me (Happy Christmas!) I wrapped it up and sent it With a note saying "I love you" I meant it Now I know what a fool I've been But if you kissed me now I know you'd fool me again Last Christmas I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special A crowded room, friends with tired eyes I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice My God, I thought you were someone to rely on Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on A face on a lover with a fire in his heart A man undercover but you tore me apart Now I found a real love you'll never fool me again Last Christmas I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special
Where did your heart go?I spend my nights down on the wharf In unlit alleyways By the church downtown Where Sally Prays Come down sometime We'll share a rusty can of corn And listen to the radio I love you, I love you, it says Where did your heart go? Did you put it on a train Did you leave it in the rain Or down in Mexico? You cry, but I don't know I've heard it all before There it goes again The slamming of the door Sometimes the river calls me And at night it calls my name Says "Put your troubles down beside me" Things have always been the same And Rock 'N' Roll won't teach me What the river said that night I jumped into his beauty and drifted out of sight
