Shadow Dancing

You got me looking at that heaven in your eyes

I was chasing your direction

I was telling you no lies

And I was loving you

When the words are said ,baby , I lose my head

And in a world of people , there's only you and I

There ain't nothing come between us in the end

How can I hold you when you ain't even mine

Only you can see me through

I leave it up to you

Do it light , taking me through the night

Shadow dancing , baby you do it right

Give me more , drag me across the floor

Shadow dancing , all this and nothing more

All that I need is just one moment in your arms

I was chasing your affection

I was doing you no harm

And I was loving you

Make it shine, make it rain , baby I know my way

I need that sweet sensation of living in your love

I can't breath when you're away , it pulls me down

You are the question and the answer am I

Only you can see me through

I leave it up to you

Do it light, taking me through the night

Shadow dancing , baby you do it right

Give me more, drag me across the floor

Shadow dancing , all this and nothing more

And in this world of people there's only you and I

There ain't nothing come between us in the end

Ah, can I hold you when you ain't even mine

Only you can see me through

I leave it up to you

Do it light , taking me through the night

Shadow dancing , baby you do it right

Give me more, drag me across the floor

Shadow dancing , all this and nothing more

Why

There is a chance I could be losing you

Gotta let my love surround you

Can't go down without a fight

And I won't hurt you girl, I promise you

It's the pain , I'm living for you

It's a broken dream but I still adore you

Why , why ,when the feelings gone

(you can't explain, we live in sun, we live in rain)

Free me or leave me

I will always forgive you

For you are my moments and you are my hours

Forever I live you

Love me or lose me

You will be my desire

There ain't nobody taking this heart that you're breaking

And no one can take me no higher

There is a reason why this world is round

There's a fire all around you

I'm just following the light

I'll never be the one to make you cry

It's the tears I'm crying for you

I'm a broken man but I still adore you

Why , why when the women's gone

(you can't explain, we live in sun, we live in rain)

Free me or leave me

I will always forgive you

For you are my moments and you are my hours

Forever I live you

Love me or lose me

You will be my desire

There ain't nobody taking this heart that you're breaking

And no one can take me much higher

Free me or leave me

I will always forgive you

For you are my moments and you are my hours

Forever I live you

Love me or lose me

You will be my desire

There ain't nobody taking this heart that you're breaking

And no one can take me much higher

Free me or leave me..... (fade out this verse)

 

 

Fool For A Night

You don't want to come home cryin'

Lose that magic in your smile

Give it up before you start it

Start to die

Why be a fool for a night

You'd be a fool to fall for a night

Gotta let it grow

Someone you don't really know

A fool for a night

You'd be a fool to fall for a night

Gotta let it show

Someone you don't really know

Old emotions , time has borrowed

Tend to make you think you're right

You're the one I'll all follow

For all times

Why be a fool for a night

You'd be a fool to fall for a night

Gotta let it grow

Someone you don't really know

A fool for a night

You'd be a fool to fall for a night

Gotta let it show

Someone you don't really know

And if you run away

You can't escape from the price you pay ,oh no

And when you realize nobody else will care

Where are the friends you made

No one is left who can show the way , oh no

And when the burden ends , I will heal you

Time will turn you back to me

A fool for a night

You'd be a fool to fall for a night

Gotta let it grow

Someone you don't really know

A fool for a night

You'd be a fool to fall for a night

Gotta let it show

Someone you don't really know

(repeat last verse and fade out)

 

 

An Everlasting Love

I've been here all your life watching your crying game

You were the heaven in my lonely world

And he was your sun and your rain

I was losing you before I ever held you tight

Before you ever held me in your arms

And I won't make you blue

And maybe an everlasting love will do

Ah, we got an everlasting love

So tall, so wide, so high above the rumble of thunder down below

It's your love I need, it's the only show

And it's you want an everlasting dream

can take us anywhere are the tears of yesterday

We killed the pain , we blew away the memories of the tears we cried

And an everlasting love will never die

Take me out of the cold

Give me what I've hungered for

If it's the pleasure of taking my heart that you need

Then it only makes me love you more

I was yours before the stars were born and you were mine

I could have saved you all the pain you knew

And I won't make you cry

And maybe an everlasting love can try

Ah, we got an everlasting love

So tall , so wide, so high above the rumble of thunder down below

It's your love I need, it's the only show

And it's you want an everlasting dream

can take us anywhere are the tears are yesterday

We killed the pain , we blew away the memories of the tears we cried

And an everlasting love will never die

(repeat last verse 2 more times and fade)

 

 

Don't Throw It All Away (Our Love)

Maybe I don't wanna know the reason why

But lately you don't talk to me

Darling I can't see me in your eyes

I hold you near but you're so far away

And it's losing you I can't believe

To watch you leave and let this feeling die

You alone are the living thing that keeps me alive

And tomorrow if I'm here without your love

You know I can't survive

Only my love can raise you high above it all

Don't throw it all away , our love , our love

Don't throw it all away , our love

Don't throw it all away , our love , our love

Don't throw it all away , our love

(break)

We can take the darkness and make if full of light

But let your love flow back to me

How can you leave and let this feeling die

This happy room will be a lonely place when you are gone

And I won't even have your shoulders for the crying on

No other women's love could be as true , I'm begging you

Don't throw it all away , our love , our love

Don't throw it all away , our love

Don't throw it all away , our love , our love

Don't throw it all away , our love

We changed the world we made it ours to hold

But dreams are made for those who really try

This losing you is real

But I still feel you here inside

Don't throw it all away , our love , our love

Don't throw it all away , our love

Don't throw it all away , our love , our love

Don't throw it all away , our love

(repeat last verse at least twice more and fade out)

 

 

One More Look At The Night

Touching a thousand dreams, feeling your memories

I guess I've never been more on my own

And the thought of you makes me cry

'cause you made me feel like sunshine

There's a danger , you ain't forever

Watching the memory die

One more look at the

One more look at the night

One more look at the only women I've ever loved

And it's you

Give me one more reason to keep believing

this dream of you holding me tight

'cause you were ev'rything

But you go taking living your own way

Taking the dream that was mine

Maybe we should have known , we let it slip away

Now I just site in the dark all alone

And the thought of you makes me cry

'cause you made me feel like sunshine

I'm a stranger

You don't even know me

Taking the sun from my eyes

One more look at the

One more look at the night

One more look at the only women I've ever loved

And it's you

Give me one more reason to keep believing

this dream of you holding me tight

We had ev'rything and I need you

Need to be near you , baby, we can't let it die

One more look at the

One more look at the night

One more look at the only women I've ever loved

And it's you

Give me one more reason to keep believing

this dream of you holding me tight

One more look at the

One more look at the night ( fade out )

 

 

Melody

You took me through the night

Didn't think I'd last your ride

And now I'm here alive

And I'm heading for the floor

You were part of all my dreams

And you made them come to life

And the thought of having you is like paradise

And I want to know what you're feeling , girl

If the thought of it makes you cry

You can take the love from my eyes

Melody , oh why, is Melody the only one I've ever wanted

But Melody , oh why , is Melody the only song my heart will ever sing

And now the moment's gone

Or maybe it's just ours

If I could have my way in the early hours

You were part of all my dreams

And you made them come to life

And the thought of having you is like paradise

But I've got to know what you're feeling , girl

If the thought of it makes you cry , girl

You can take the love from my eyes

Melody, oh why , is Melody the only love I've ever wanted

Melody, oh why , is Melody

You're the only song my heart will ever sing in tune

And with feeling I've got much more love than ev'ry one's believing

If the thought of me makes you cry

You can take the love from my eyes

Melody , oh why , is Melody

You're the only one I've ever wanted

Melody , oh why , is Melody

You're the only song my heart will ever sing

Melody

Oh why, is Melody

You're the only one I've ever wanted

Melody, oh why , ( fade out )

 

 

I Go For You

Oh babe , I got it crazy

We both been broken in sorrow

We need to try for tomorrow

Where our feeling start and I lose my heart to you

Oh lover , I've just discovered

My life was falling around me

I was lost when you found me

And you turned my head and my fire was fed

I go for you

You light up the darkest night

You keep shining through when ev'rything's out of sight

I go for you

You light up the darkest night

And you put all the life back in my eyes

You're making me feel like I've never felt

I never was one for a party, look at me now

(break)

Oh babe , we must be crazy

We could be living in heaven

I'd take you there in a second

Never been this far

Gotta trust our hearts

I go for you

You light up the darkest night

You keep shining through when ev'rything's out of sight

I go for you

You light up the darkest night

And you put all the life back in my eyes

You're making me feel like I've never felt

I never was one for a party , look at me now

I go for you

You light up the darkest night

You keep shining through when ev'rything's out of sight

I go for you

You light up the darkest night

And you put all the life back in my eyes

I go for you

You light up the darkest night

I keep shining through when ev'rything's out of sight

I go for you

And you put the life back in my eyes

I go for you

(break)

I go for you

(break)

I go for you (fade)

 

Good Feeling

Ah, la la la la la la la la la la la la la , no no no

Never in my wildest dreams

could I ever see you loving me but you say I'm wrong

'cause you're something I believe in

And you leave me with a feeling that fills up my eyes

Oh, I guess you have good reason but I just can't help believing

that it's emptiness looking in your eyes

You're just something I , I don't want to lose

Don't make me have to choose , Ooh

Good feeling , looking at love again

Breaking out is something new

I can't pretend

Good feeling , knowing the time is right

There I stand , half your man

 

 

Bring me back to life

Ah, la la la la la la la la la la la la la no no no

Sorry , but I love you

It's the only way to tell you 'bout the mood in me

'cause you're something I believe in

And you love me with a feeling that fills up my eyes

Oh, I guess you have good reason

But I just can't help believing

that it's emptiness looking in your eyes

You're just something I , I don't want to lose

Don't make me have to choose , Ooh

Good feeling , looking at love again

Breaking out a new love babe

You know, I can't pretend , oh no

Good feeling , knowing the time is right

Here I stand , half your man

Bring me back to life

Ah, la la la la la la la la la la la la la , Ooh..

Good feeling , looking at love again

Breaking out is something new

You know I can't pretend, oh no

Good feeling , knowing the time is right

There I stand , half your man

Bring me back to life , Ah ..

(repeat last verse and fade out )

 

 

Waiting For You

Yesterday I was dreaming alone

Always used to fight with myself

When out of the blue came you

And all of my senses flew out of an open door

I'm needing you more and more

And I'll be waiting for you ( believe me , hold me)

And I'll wait all my life

It's just part of a feeling

Want it so bad , I can't let it die

And I'll be waiting for you (to free me, hold me)

And I'll wait all my life

You're just part of a feeling

Love you so much, I can't let you by

Look at what's left of me now

I was so lost

I just couldn't pull out

I couldn't pull out

Wanna love but I want you to stay

So scared that I could end up alone

And I'm not the kind to show

But somehow you've got to know

I'm falling in love with you

And still it's so much to do

And I'll be waiting for you (believe me , hold me)

And I'll wait all my life

It's just a part of a feeling

Want it so bad, I can't let it die

Look at what's left of me now

I got so lost

I just couldn't pull out

And I'll be waiting for you ( believe me , hold me)

And I'll wait all my life

It's just part of a feeling

Want it so bad, I can't let it die

That's why I'm waiting for you (to free me , hold me)

And I'll wait all my life

You're just part of a feeling

Love you so much , I can't let you by

And I'll be waiting for you ( fade out)
