WHEN IT ALL COMES DOWN (I'LL STILL BE AROUND)
The world goes round
No one knows what it all means
You're still out there
Looking for a brand new scene
And I'm still here
Never have been hard to find
When new gets old
I'll be playing on your mind

When it all comes down, look for me
I'll still be around
When it all comes down, look for me
I'll still be around

The day will come when there's nothing new to see
And then you'll know here is where you want to be
You know my song used to take your heart away
That same old feel is gonna bring you back to stay

When it all comes down, look for me
I'll still be around
When it all comes down, look for me

I'll still be around

MIDNIGHT BELIEVER
You're about to believe in love again
I'll take you there and bring you back again
The night is short
Tomorrows are long
Come go with me
While the feeling is strong

Midnight believer
The night believes in you
Midnight believer
The night believes in you

I believe that the night tells us everything
The moves to make with the feel that we bring
You've got the love locked up inside
I've got the touch so there's nothing to hide

Midnight believer
The night believes in you
Midnight believer

The night believes in you

I JUST CAN'T LEAVE YOUR LOVE ALONE
You let me down
All over town
I guess by now I should be gone
Yet here I stand
Still in your hands
Cause you're the best I've ever known

I try and try to say good-bye
I just can't leave your love alone
And after you what will I do
I just can't leave your love alone

I walk away most everyday
Don't need a love that hurts me so
Then every night you get it right
Until I'm moaning soft and low

I try and try to say good-bye
I just can't leave your love alone
And after you what will I do

I just can't leave your love alone

HOLD ON (I FEEL OUR LOVE IS CHANGING)
Turn out the light, sleep won't come
I think about what's going wrong
Lying so close, so alone
Please turn to me, I'm almost gone

Hold on, I feel our love is changing
Hold on, please don't let me disappear
Hold on, there's time to rearrange things
Hold on, I'm not me without you here

Put out your hand, touch desire
Where there's a spark, could be a fire
Open your arms, let me see
If there's still love in you for me

Hold on, I feel our love is changing
Hold on, please don't let me disappear
Hold on, there's time to rearrange things

Hold on, I'm not me without you here

NEVER MAKE A MOVE TOO SOON
Three days of snow in Birmingham
Thought you would wonder where I am
Rang our number all night long
It's no comfort on the telephone
Ran out and caught a midnight flight
Thought a little love would make everything all right
The landlord said, "You moved away"
And left me all your bills to pay"
Look out baby, you might have made your move too soon

Left me with a Keno card
This life in Vegas sure ain't hard
I ran it up to about fifty grand
Cashed it in and held it in my hand
That kind of word can get around
And make a lost love come up found
I hear you knocking baby at my door
But you know you ain't living here no more
It's too bad
I think you made your move too soon

I've been from Spain to Tokyo
From Africa to Ohio
I never tried to make the news
I'm just a man who plays the blues
I take my lovin' everywhere
I came back, and they still care you know
One love ahead
One love behind
One in my arms and one on my mind
It's one thing baby
I never make my move too soon

I've been from Spain to Tokyo
From Africa to Ohio
I never tried to make the news
I'm just a man who plays the blues
I take my lovin' everywhere
I come back, you know they still all care
One love ahead and one behind
One in my arms you know, one on my mind
And it's one thing people

I never make my move too soon

A WORLD FULL OF STRANGERS
You and me don't see eye to eye
On every little thing
We've missed a lot of sunshine
And caught a lot of rain
If you want to leave I can't make you stay
But there is something I have to say

No matter how high you get
Or how low you go
There's one thing darling
You ought to know

There's a world full of strangers out there
A world full of strangers
Beware
There's a world full of strangers out there
And if it gets too strange
Just come on home

Restless hearts, looking for a love
Are waiting in the street
They're all prepared to give you
The bitter with the sweet
If you wake someday and you reach for me
Well you know, this is where I'll be

No matter how high you get
Or how low you go
There's one thing darling
You ought to know

There's a world full of strangers out there
A world full of strangers
Beware
There's a world full of strangers out there
And if it gets too strange

Just come on home

LET ME MAKE YOU CRY A LITTLE LONGER
You know by now that I've been passed
Through an awful lot of hands
And all I have is what is left
From ten thousand one night stands

Sometimes I feel like I was there
When the blues began
With this crying guitar holding me
Like a woman holds a man

Let me make you cry a little longer
Let me make you high a little longer
Oh, I want to try a little longer
Make some woman sigh a little longer

At night sometimes I can still feel
Every place I've ever been
I feel it in my music
And it all comes back again

You know I've played for city lights
And for stars above
And every note I ever play
I always play for love

Let me make you cry a little longer
Let me make you high a little longer
Oh, I want to try a little longer

Make some woman sigh a little longer
