After Dark - Andy Gibb (p) 1980
There not anything I would not do to ease your troubled mind
Where you are , there is a different feeling
I wake up , I'm on the ceilin' , opens up your eyes
What a shape ! Someone you can't forget for any time
Oh , let me show you mine , immediately
After dark where the lights start fading sweet and low
I wanna be there , I wanna be there
We leave immediately
After dark where the lights start fading sweet and low
I wanna be there , I wanna be there
We leave immediately
After dark
There is no limit that I would not go
if I could lie beside
Where you are , there is a different out there
Love in the jungle can be hard to realize
What a shape ! Someone you can't forget for any time
Oh , let me show you mine immediately
After dark where the lights are fading sweet and low
I wanna be there , I wanna be there
We leave immediately
After dark where the lights are fading sweet and low
I wanna be there , I wanna be there
We leave immediately
After dark
(break)
There is not anything I would not do to ease your troubled mind

What a shape ! Someone you can't forget for any time
Oh , let me show you mine immediately
After dark where the lights start fading sweet and low
I wanna be there , I wanna be there
We leave immediately
After dark where the lights start fading sweet and low
I wanna be there , I wanna be there
We leave immediately

Ah..... Ah....
We may be big or small or black or white , eternally
And black and white is you and me in a special light
We may be young or old or in between ,but this much I know
Together we can learn to grow
In a world that's ever turning it's back on you
If you give it all away ,
make it mine ,ine , ine , ine , mine
You are desire , ev'rything you need
I give you right or wrong
And you are the woman that I
base my whole existence on
And when I get to you my
desire is glowing in your light
These are the golden years we get to live
we lead the way , tomorrow we can start today
in a special light
Love could be good or bad or in between
but this much I learn
Baby , you and I can learn
In a world that's rearranging it's reality
If you give it all away
make it mine , ine , ine , ine , mine
You are desire , ev'rything you need
I give you right or wrong
And you are the woman that I
base my whole existence on
And when I get to you my
desire is glowing in your light
Ah...
And it's nice to light a fire
when it's cold outside
If you give it all away
make it mine , ine , ine , ine , mine
You are desire , ev'rything you need
I give you right or wrong
And you are the woman that I
base my whole existence on
And when I get to you my
desire is glowing in your light
(repeat last 3 lines of last verse and fade out )
There is a beautiful woman , an ordinary guy
You let her into your heart,
It's a part of the show but you never know why
You fall in love in a minute and it's a bottomless well
and she'd be draggin' you down 'til you just wanna die
It's a livin' hell
Wherever you go , you live inside of me
I was born to make you see what you never learned
Wherever you are , we'll let the lovin' go down
Lovin' ev'ry minute
The seconds , the hours , that you wait around
What if I like to play but the world gets in the way
Instead of loving you I'm losing you
and losing just don't pay
Somebody give me the night
Give me a chance to feel
I see your face in the sky ,
in the moon and the stars
but you know it ain't real
You battle love to the limit
Ah ,but you never can win
You finish up cryin' tears in the
wild woods but you can't give in
Wherever you are , we'll let the lovin' go down
Lovin' every minute
The seconds , the hours , that you wait around
What if I like to play but the world gets in the way
Instead of loving you , I'm losing you
and losing just don't pay
Wherever you are ,you know the lovin' don't end
And though you make it a crime girl , I love ya
I try to talk to you woman
You got your mind on your own
There may be somebody else in your eyes girl
but you're still alone
Wherever you go my love will follow you
My dream will make it through
If I ever learn
Wherever you are , we'll let the lovin' go down
Loving every minute
The seconds , the hours , that you wait around
What if I like to play but the world gets in the way
Instead of loving you , I'm losing you
and losing just don't pay
(repeat last verse and fade out )
Come to me baby, I got something to say
I been changin' your direction ev'ry step of the way
Now I bring emotion and I bring desire
And I bring the potion to set you on fire
I know you need me, there can be no doubt
You got me held inside your love and I can't get out
We must surrender to the powers that be
The angel in you and the devil in me
Warm ride , warm ride , baby just the way you are
Warm ride , warm ride , we can reach the highest star
Now I warn you women, we are two of a kind
And we both know what's coming
We got one thing in mind
I bring the pleasure , satisfaction you learn
And I got the strength to make you burn, baby, burn
Warm ride , warm ride , baby just the way you are
Warm ride , warm ride , we can reach the highest star
Why are we waiting for this love on the rise
And why am I searching for the magic that's in your eyes
We must surrender to the powers that be
The angel in you and the devil in me
Warm ride, warm ride , baby just the way you are
Warm ride, warm ride , we can reach the highest star
(break)
Warm ride , warm ride , baby just the way you are
Warm ride , warm ride , we can reach the highest star
warm ride ( fade out)
Maybe you don't know me anymore then I know you
And I wouldn't blame you if you walked away
I been watchin' you all evenin' with the teardrops in your eyes
And it touches me much more then I can say
You know I'd hate to think that someone
could have hurt someone like you
And at times like this , I'd be right by your side
Lay your troubles on my shoulders
Put your worries in my pocket
Rest your love on me awhile
Lay your troubles on my shoulder
Put your worries in my pocket
Rest your love on me awhile
Saw you in the corner on the moment I walked in
Saw your lonely face across the room
No, I won't forget it
And the way it might have been
Why did you have to leave so soon
You know I'd hate to think that someone
could have loved you more than me
And if I was them, I'd be right by your side
Lay your troubles on my shoulders
Put your worries in my pocket
Rest your love on me awhile
Lay your troubles on my shoulders
Put your worries in my pocket
Rest your love on me awhile
How long must I wait for the last train to leave here
And the last chance to know
Get to think that I was born too soon
How long honey, when the lovin' don't come
I was there when you left me
Just didn't know how to begin
Lay your troubles on my shoulders
Put your worries in my pocket
Rest your love on me awhile
Lay your troubles on my shoulders
Put your worries in my pocket
Rest your love on me awhile
Lay your troubles on my shoulders
Put your worries in my pocket
Rest your love on me awhile
Lay your troubles on my shoulders
Put your worries in my pocket
Rest your love on me awhile
Lay your troubles on my shoulders
Put your worries in my pocket
Rest your love on me awhile
Lay your .. (fade out)
Oh, I , baby what a fool I am
First a boy and then a man , am I
And you , you're the heart of it all
You're the things I say and do
Am I wasting my time , hangin' around
You would be gone
But I can't help it
Ev'ry moment that I think about you
Ev'ry day and ev'ry night without you
I can't survive
Love , take away the lonely days gone by
Make it ev'ry day for you and I
Givin' me the chance to go on believin'
Girl , you gotta go on believin'
(Boy), you gotta go on believin'
You , baby you're the breathe I take
Coming for a heart in love , am I
And you , you're the heart of it all
You're the things I say and do
Am I wasting my time , hangin' around
You would be gone
But I can't help it
Ev'ry moment that I think about you
Ev'ry day and ev'ry night without you
I can't survive
Love , take away the lonely days gone by
Make it ev'ry day for you and I
Givin' me the chance to go on believin'
Girl , you gotta go on believin'
(Boy) , you gotta go on believin'
(break)

I can't help it
Ev'ry moment that I think about you
Ev'ry day and ev'ry night , I can't survive
Love , take away the lonely days gone by
Make it ev'ry day for you and I
Giving me a chance to , help it , help it
Ev'ry moment that I think about you
Ev'ry day and night I can't survive
Love , take away the lonely days gone by (fade out)
This time , I'm coming home
I gotta say I'm sorry
She was my one mistake
The last one I'll ever make
I broke you down
I told you lies
And in my way I made you love me
And through it all , there's gotta be
We go through those changes with
One love is better than many
Who cares what magic dream
there might have been
I'm lonely for one love
I live without any
Your love , the dream ,
make it real
This time , I'm someone else
I'm not the one who hurt you
You are my destiny
The love light inside of me
And who am I , if not for you
An empty soul with no tomorrow
Smiling eyes or starless skies
We go through those changes with
One love is better than many
Who cares what magic dream
there might have been
I'm lonely for one love
I live without any
Your love , the dream ,
make it real
Just give me
One love is better than many (fade out)
It wasn't what you said
It's knowin' what you mean
You wanna spread your wings and fly
where the moment takes you off
Tryin' hard to be , someone you ain't
It wasn't how you laughed
that taught me how to cry
Convincin' me your heart is
a million dreams away
Tryin' hard to be , someone you ain't
You came along when I was down
and found a place within me
All the love I ever had can not
replace the things you did
I'm still in love with you and
even though you're gone
I gotta try , gotta try ,
gotta try , gotta try
Someday I'm gonna win
and get back to your arms
And here am I alone
with a memory of you
Tryin' hard to be , someone I ain't
We held it in , we gave it out
There wasn't any quarter
All the pieces fell apart
It still ain't like it ought to be
I'm still in love with you
even though you're gone
I gotta try , gotta try ,
gotta try , gotta try
You came along when I was down
and found a place within me
All the love I ever had can not
replace the things you did
I'm still in love with you
even though you're gone
I gotta try , gotta try
gotta try , gotta try
We held it in , we gave it out
There wasn't any quarter
All the pieces fell apart
It still ain't like it ought to be
I'm still in love with you
even though you're gone
I gotta try , gotta try ,
gotta try , gotta try (fade out)
got your love on me baby , leavin' me was yesterday
Oh, I got to be the one ,you won't ever see me running away
Ah , when the day is done and I think of you
I get a feeling I just can't control
Ah, falling in love with you baby ,
when I really should be sayin goodbye
And the glow of you livin' inside me,
got me knowin' we can never die
Fallin' in love with you baby
is like a dream without an end
Shine all your love on me baby
Lead me to your ecstasy
In the heat of the night you can play with me baby
Take me where you want me to be
Ah , when the night is done and I think of you
I get a feeling way down in my soul , ah
Fallin' in love with you baby ,
when I really should be sayin' goodbye
And the glow of you livin' inside me
got me knowin' we can never die
Fallin' in love with you baby

How can we go wrong on a night like this
When we lie in the heart of your tenderness

And the glow of you livin' inside me

Fallin' in love with you baby
when I really should be sayin' goodbye
And the glow of you livin' inside me
got me knowin' we can never die
Fallin' in love with you baby ...(fade out)
She takes the heart of mine
She make it beat in time
In fact she's mine forever
And I'll never ever know the reason why
Funny how she writes letters to me
She's only human but she keeps goin' through me
We came to love in the neighborhood
And the love don't cease to grow
And if you need me darlin'
I'll be dreamin' on
Dreamin' on for you baby
Dreamin' on for you woman-child
Dreamin' on for you baby
She makes the skies grow dark
She makes the darkness bright
She make the wind grow warm in
the wake of another cold and stormy night
And anywhere she needs me I'll be runnin' to
'cause she fits me like a glove
And tho I'd really like to be with you
She gave me love when there was no love
And I would not let her go
So if you need me darlin'
I'll be dreamin' on
Dreamin' on for you baby
Dreamin' on for you woman-child
Dreamin' on for you baby
(break)
I'll be dreamin' on
Dreamin' on for you baby
Dreamin' on for you woman-child
Dreamin' on for you baby
Ah....
For you baby
Ah...(fade)
