Against All Odds (Take A Look At Me Now) (Featured on the soundtrack of "Against All Odds" ,1984)
How can I just let you walk away, just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking every breath with you, ooh
You're the only one who really knew me at all
How can you just walk away from me,
when all I can do is watch you leave
Cos we've shared the laughter and the pain and even shared the tears
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now, oh there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me,
just the memory of your face
Ooh take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against all odds and that's what I've got to face
I wish I could just make you turn around,
turn around and see me cry
There's so much I need to say to you,
so many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me, just the memory of your face
Now take a look at me now, cos there's just an empty space
But to wait for you, is all I can do and that's what I've got to face
Take a good look at me now, cos I'll still be standing here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
It's the chance I've gotta take
Take a look at me now

Seperate Lives (Released as Phil Collins & Marilyn Martin single, 1985)
You called me from the room in your hotel
All full of romance for someone that you met
And telling me how sorry you were, leaving so soon
And that you miss me sometimes when you're alone in your room
Do I feel lonely too?
You have no right to ask me how I feel
You have no right to speak to me so kind
We can't go on just holding on to time
Now that we're living separate lives
Well I held on to let you go
And if you lost your love for me, well you never let it show
There was no way to compromise
So now we're living (living)
Separate lives
Ooh, it's so typical, love leads to isolation
So you build that wall (build that wall)
Yes, you build that wall (build that wall)
And you make it stronger
Well you have no right to ask me how I feel
You have no right to speak to me so kind
Some day I might (I might) find myself looking in your eyes
But for now, we'll go on living separate lives
Yes for now, we'll go on living separate lives
Separate lives

Easy Lover (Released on Phil Bailey's "Chinese Wall" album, 1984)
Easy lover
She'll get a hold on you believe it
Like no other
Before you know it you'll be on your knees
She's an easy lover
She'll take your heart but you won't feel it
She's like no other
And I'm just trying to make you see
She's the kind of girl you dream of
Dream of keeping hold of
You'd better forget it
You'll never get it
She will play around and leave you
Leave you and deceive you
Better forget it
Oh you'll regret it
No you'll never change her, so leave it, leave it
Get out quick cos seeing is believing
It's the only way
You'll ever know
Easy lover
She'll get a hold on you believe it
Like no other
Before you know it you'll be on your knees
She's an easy lover
She'll take your heart but you won't feel it
She's like no other
And I'm just trying to make you see
You're the one that wants to hold her
Hold her and control her
You'd better forget it
You'll never get it
For she'll say there's no other
Till she finds another
Better forget it
Oh you'll regret it
And don't try to change her, just leave it, leave it
You're not the only one, ooh seeing is believing
It's the only way
You'll ever know, oh
No don't try to change her, just leave it, leave it
You're not the only one, ooh seeing is believing
It's the only way
You'll ever know, oh
She's an easy lover (she's a easy lover)
She'll get a hold on you believe it (get a hold on you)

She'll take your heart but you won't feel it (you won't feel it)
She's like no other
And I'm just trying to make you see (trying to make you see)

I Like The Way (Released as B-side of "One More Night" single, 1985)
I look out the window every day, I see the world go by
Watching I sit and wait for you
Just hoping you'll catch my eye
You see me stare but I don't care
I like the way you smile
One day I'll get to talk to you
Ooh, right now well I'm too shy
But in my world of make believe
You're the one what I need, oh, oh...
I could imagine me with you
But it's an impossibility
I'd love to try to realise, I gotta deal with reality
But if you turn my way, I'd look away, ooh even face-to-face
And deep inside me, inside my mind
Someone else is trying to take my place
But in my world of make believe
You're the one what I need, oh, oh...
Oh, come with me, I'll show you everything
Come with me, ooh
Come with me, I'll show you everything
It could be, come along with me and let me take you there, oh, oh...
I look out the window every day, I see the world go by
Watching I sit and wait for you
Ooh, just hoping that you'll walk by
But if you turn my way, I'd look away, ooh even face-to-face
And deep inside, ooh in my mind
Someone else is trying to take my place
In my world of make believe
You're the one what I need, oh, oh...
Come with me, ooh
Come with me, I'll show you everything
It could be, come along with me and let me take you there, oh, oh...
All of my life, come with me, come with me, come with me...
All of my life...
I like the way you smile
All of my life...

The Man With The Horn (Released as B-side of "Sussudio" single, 1985)
They come from miles around just to hear him play
He's on the same street corner almost every day
And there's always a crowd wherever he goes
And when he blows his horn, well everybody knows
I only wanna see him play
All the girls 'n' boys they wanna see him play
Nobody else they wanna see him play
And he brings a tear to the eye
He'll make you smile of make you cry
And nobody asks him why
Cos they just wanna see him play
They come from every way, every night
He's got a band so out there, it's outta sight
And the boys in the dancehall are rocking in the aisle
The girls up front - they wanna see him smile
I only wanna see him play
All the girls 'n' boys they wanna see him play
Nobody else they wanna see him play
And he brings a tear to the eye
He'll make you smile of make you cry
Ooh, nobody asks him why
Cos they just wanna see him play
Yeah, he's the man with the horn
Ooh they wanna see him play
Yeah, he's the man with the horn
Ooh they wanna see him play
Yeah, he's the man with the horn
You know they wanna see him, they wanna see him
They wanna, they wanna, they wanna see him play
(Play it, Don!)
Ah, station to station, coast to coast
Well you can hear all his records on the radio
He makes every evening feel like Saturday night
And if you're happy or sad he'll make the feeling right
I only wanna see him play
All the girls 'n' boys they wanna see him play
Nobody else they wanna see him play
And he brings a tear to the eye
He'll make you smile of make you cry
Ooh, nobody asks him why
Cos they just wanna see him play
Yes, you know they wanna see him, they wanna see him
Chow, they know they wanna see him, they wanna see him
They wanna, they wanna, they wanna see him play
They wanna see him play, play, play, play
Oh, all the girls and boys wanna see him play
All the girls and boys wanna see him play
All the girls and boys...

A Groovy Kind Of Love (Featured on the soundtrack of "Buster", 1988)
When I'm feeling blue, all I have to do
Is take a look at you, then I'm not so blue
When you're close to me, I can feel your heart beat
I can hear you breathing near my ear
Wouldn't you agree, baby you and me got a groovy kind of love
Anytime you want to you can turn me onto
Anything you want to, anytime at all
When I kiss your lips, ooh I start to shiver
Can't control the quivering inside
Wouldn't you agree, baby you and me got a groovy kind of love, oh
When I'm feeling blue, all I have to do
Is take a look at you, then I'm not so blue
When I'm in your arms, nothing seems to matter
My whole world could shatter, I don't care
Wouldn't you agree, baby you and me got a groovy kind of love
We got a groovy kind of love
We got a groovy kind of love, oh
We got a groovy kind of love
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Two Hearts (Featured on the soundtrack of "Buster", 1988)
Well, there was no reason to believe she'd always be there
But if you don't put faith in what you believe in
It's getting you nowhere
Cos it hurts, you never let go
Don't look down, just look up
Cos she's always there to behind you, just to remind you
Two hearts, believing in just one mind
You know we're two hearts believing in just one mind
Cos there's no easy way to, to understand it
There's so much of my life in her, and it's like I'm blinded
And it teaches you to never let go
There's so much love you'll never know
She can reach you no matter how far
Wherever you are
Two hearts, believing in just one mind
Beating together till the end of time
You know we're two hearts believing in just one mind
Together forever till the end of time
She knows (she knows)
There'll always be a special place in my heart for her
She knows, she knows, she knows
Yeah, she knows (she knows)
No matter how far apart we are
She knows, I'm always right there beside her
We're two hearts...

Chorus:
You`re such a ???
Look him round the eye and take
And make a big big big noise.
Don`t ask why
Just take it wise and making it
Make that a big big big big noise.
You can feel it in the air

At just look, it`s all around you
Just take a look around you people stars ??? to loose it
Cos if you wanted you gotta go get it
Just to listen up

You better believe
Repeat chorus...
Better make your play
Don`t let her thing like right or wrong, get it
Cos there`s nothing to it if you just if you reach out and do it, it`ll be ok
Just catch yourself a piece of the action
Just to listen up

You better believe
Repeat Chorus...
Cos if you wanted you gotta go get it
Just to listen up
if there`s something that you need
You better believe
Repeat chorus to fade...

You've Been In Love (That Little Bit Too Long) (Released as B-side of "I Wish It Would Rain Down" single, 1990)
You've been in love that little bit too long
You've been in love and I think that you know
You've been in love it's time to move on
You've been in love and it's starting to show
She's getting to used to your face, getting too used to your smile
She's saying the same things every morning before you leave her
You'd better run, find out what's going through her mind
You'd better look out, cos he's not far behind
You've been in love that little bit too long
You've been in love and I think that you know
You've been in love it's time to move on
You've been in love and it's starting to show
Suddenly she's trying to please you, you start to think she's acting strange
And after all these years she wears make-up in the morning
You'd better run, find out what's going through her mind
You'd better look out, cos he's not far behind
Did you really believe she's doing it all for you?
Oh, can't you see, there's somebody else
You never showed it, you should have known it
You've been in love, yeah you've been in love
You've been in love, yeah you've been in love
Going round singing all those love songs, songs you haven't heard for years
You're gonna have to ask her why she's so happy
You'd better run, find out what's going through her mind.
But it may be too late, and I know why
You've been in love that little bit too long
You've been in love and I think that you know
You've been in love it's time to move on
You've been in love and it's starting to show
You've been in love that little bit too long
You've been in love, I think that you know
You've been in love it's time to move on
You've been in love and it's starting to show
To show, show, you've been in love, oh oh
(I've got blisters on my fingers!)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That's How I Feel (Released as B-side of "Hang In Long Enough" CD single, 1990)
Well I've been waiting so long
I've been waiting so patiently
Out of the blue you call
You're leaving him to be with me now
Now maybe I'm right, or maybe I'm wrong
Oh, I gotta know now
I'll take what you got, so you'd better hold on
You'd better believe it
Cos that's how I feel when I'm in your arms
That's how I feel when I'm with you
You make me feel like never before
That's how I feel when I'm with you
He doesn't treat you good
He doesn't say the things that I say
So when he turns around
You're gonna stab him in the back and then walk away
Now maybe I'm right, or maybe I'm wrong
Oh, I gotta know now
I'll take what you got, so you'd better hold on
You'd better believe it
Cos that's how I feel when I'm in your arms
That's how I feel when I'm with you
You make me feel like never before
That's how I feel when I'm with you
You've been away too long
And now you're coming home
But I won't believe it until
I'm holding you tight, tight, tight tonight
Now maybe I'm right, or maybe I'm wrong
Oh, I gotta know now
I'll take what you got, so you'd better hold on
You'd better believe it
Cos that's how I feel when I'm in your arms
That's how I feel when I'm with you
You make me feel like never before
That's how I feel when I'm with you
That's how I feel when I'm in your arms
(That's how I feel when I'm with you) ooh, yeah
That's how I feel when I'm in your arms
That's how I feel when I'm with you
That's how I feel when I'm with you

Hero (Phil Collins demo version released as B-side of "We Wait And We Wonder" single, 1994)
Well it was one of those great stories
that you can't put down at night
the hero knew what he had to do
and he wasn't afraid to fight
the villain goes to jail, while the hero goes free
I wish it were that simple for me.
And the reason that she loved him
was the reason I loved him too
and he never wondered what was right or wrong
he just knew - he just knew.
Shadows and shape mixed together at dawn
but by time you catch them simplicity's gone
and so we sort through the pieces
my friends and I
searching through the darkness to find
the breaks in the sky.
And the reason that she loved him
was the reason I loved him too
and he never wondered what was right or wrong
he just knew - he just knew.
And we wonder, yes we wonder
how do you make sense of this
when the hero kills the maiden
with his kiss - with his kiss.
Well it was one of those great stories
that you can't put down at night
the hero knew what he had to do
and he wasn't afraid to fight
the villain goes to jail, while the hero goes free
I wish it were that simple for me
- if it were that simple for me.

Take Me With You (Released as B-side of "We Wait And We Wonder" CD single, 1994)
If you see the light on in the window of my room
I'll be looking out though the shades are drawn
If you should hear someone quietly calling out for your hair
Don't be alarmed it might just be me
Take me with you, take me there
I'll go with you anywhere
Show me all the things you know
Are you with me, are you there
I'll be with you
(Lastogap M. Gultom)
