SHE'S WAITING
She's waiting for another love.
She's waiting for another love.

She's been waiting for another love,
Someone that she can show into her heart.
And when she finally finds a stronger love,
Your whole world's gonna fall apart.

She's waiting for another love.
She's waiting for another love.

You've been abusing her for far too long;
Think you're a king and she's your pawn.
Get ready now, 'cause pretty soon
She'll be gone and you'll be on your own.

She's waiting for another love.
She's waiting for another love.

I see the hunger burning in her eye;
Any fool could see there's something wrong.
You keep pretending not to care,
But I will hear you sing a different song.

She's waiting for another love.
She's waiting for another love.

Waiting for another lover,
Hoping for the time that she'll find another
. . .

SEE WHAT LOVE CAN DO
When your world, it starts to fall apart
Look deep within, within your lonely heart.
Do your best my friend, try and understand
It's only you, pull yourself through.

When you tell your story,
Make sure your story's right;
Every little single word is true.
See what love can do.
See what love can do.

When the words are in the music, the music is the song.
The world would be so happy, if we'd all just get along.
I want to see it, a smile on every face.

So when we tell our story,
Make sure that it's right
And every single word is true.
See what love can do.
See what love can do.

So when you tell your story, honey
Make sure that it's right.
I finally proved the message true.
I see what love can do.
See what love can do.

See what love can do.
See what love can do.

When we sing the story
Make sure your song is right.
Finally proved the message true.
See what love can do.
Oh, see what love can do.

See what love can do.
See what love can do.
See what love can do.
See what love can do.

SAME OLD BLUES
I'm sorry baby, but I can't afford to stay.

Your good, kind treatment will worry me someday.

I love you baby, but I'm gonna have to say goodbye.

Woman, I got to move, I really got to fly.

Same thing every morning,

Tell me what's it all about.

I get those same old blues every night, every night

I miss you already, baby, more than words can say.

Seems like I've been gone twenty-four hours, more like a million days.

I love you baby, you know I woudn't tell you no lies.

If you don't believe I love you, look at the tears standing in my eyes.

Same thing every morning,

Tell me what's it all about.

I get those same old blues every night, every night.

Here I am back home, baby, I'm back home to stay.

I love you babe, never more will I go away.

I won't hurt you no more, baby, ain't gonna tell you no more lies.

No more running 'round, no more phony alibis.

Same thing every morning,

What's it all about.

I get those same old blues every night.

Same thing every morning,

Tell me what's it all about.

I get those same old blues every night.

Same thing every morning,

Tell me what's it all about.

I get those same old blues every night, every night

KNOCK ON WOOD
I don't want to lose you,
this good thing that I've got.
If I do, I would surely, surely lose a lot,
'Cause your love is better than any love I know.

It's like thunder, lightning,
The way you love me is frightening.
Think I'd better knock on wood, baby.

I'm not superstitious about you,
I can't take no chance.
You got me spinning, baby.
Baby, I'm in a trance,
'Cause your love is better than any love I know.

It's like thunder, lightning,
The way you love me is frightening.
Think I'd better knock on wood, baby.

Ain't no secret,
that woman is my loving cup.
She sees to it that I get it up.
Just one touch from her,
you know can do so much.

It's like thunder, lightning,
The way you love me is frightening.
Think I'd better knock on wood, baby.

Think I better knock, knock, knock on wood.
Think I better knock, knock, knock on wood.
. . .

SOMETHIG'S HAPPENING
Something's happening, something's going on.

Something's happening, something so strong.

Something's happening, something all over the world.

Spirit's moving and it's moving fast.

You better get aboard and don't be last.

Something's happening, something all over the world.

My life has been a series of endless changes,

A constant struggle to be free.

One thing I know for sure now baby,

It's me for you and you for me.

Something's happening, something's going on.

Something's happening, something so strong.

Something's happening, something all over the world.

Spirit's moving and it's moving fast.

You better get aboard and don't be last.

Something's happening, something all over the world.

Something's happening, something's going on.

Something's happening, something so strong.

Something's happening, something all over the world.

FOREVER MAN
How many times must I tell you babe,

How many bridges I've got to cross?

How many times must I explain myself

Before I can talk to the boss,

'Fore I can talk to the boss?

How many times must I say I love you

Before you finally understand?

Won't you be my forever woman?

I'll try to be your forever man,

Try to be your forever man.

How many times must I say I love you

Before you finally understand?

Won't you be my forever woman?

I'll try to be your forever man,

Try to be your forever man.

Forever man, forever man, forever man.

Forever man, forever man, forever man.

Try to be your forever man.

Forever man, forever man, forever man.

Forever man, forever man, forever man.

Try to be your forever man.

IT ALL DEPENDS
So you think you are something special;
I wonder why, baby, is that so?
Could admit, you are something special.
Won't you tell me, girl? I'd love to know.

Yes, I've seen you with your other girlfriends.
I can tell they really think you're fine.
And I've seen you with your other men friends.
They don't know if you're a love of mine.

It all depends on how you feel, baby.
I've got to know just how you feel, baby.

It all depends on how you feel, baby.
I've got to know just how you feel, baby.
It all depends on how you feel, baby.
I've got to know just how you feel, baby.

'Cause you've taken away
The only thing I ever ever had.
Don't you know that I love you?
Why'd you make me feel bad?
The only thing I ever loved
Was loving you.

So you think you are something special;
I wonder why, baby, is that so?
Could admit, you are something special.
Won't you tell me, girl? I'd love to know.

It all depends on how you feel, baby.
I've got to know just how you feel, baby.
It all depends on how you feel, baby.
I've got to know just how you feel, baby.

So you think you are
What makes you think you are
something special?

TANGLED IN LOVE
A modern man with an old-fashioned heart.
One look at her and I fell apart.
I was always the one playing it cool.
I got caught in the act, now there's no turning back.

I got tangled in love, tangled in love.
I got tangled in love, tangled in love.
I got caught up, bought up, strangled, tangled in love.
I got tangled in love, tangled in love.

A long black dress and the call of the wild.
I was a fool to think she was just a child.
Out of my mind, out of control.
Knew that feeling too well, tried to run but I fell.

I got tangled in love, tangled in love.
I got tangled in love, tangled in love.
I got caught up, bought up, strangled, tangled in love.
I got tangled in love, tangled in love.

I never meant to feel this way,
Now I always want to stay...

I got tangled in love, tangled in love.
I got tangled in love, tangled in love.
I got caught up, bought up, strangled, tangled in love.
I got tangled in love, tangled in love.

I got tangled in love, tangled in love.(x4)

NEVER MAKE YOU CRY
It's so easy loving you
With everything I feel inside,
And holding me the way you do,
It's here I'm staying all of my life.

I'll never ever make you cry.
I'll never ever say goodbye.
Can't you see it in my eyes?
I'm yours until the day I die.

I'll watch you fall asleep at night,
I'll smile and kiss you, hold you tight,
I'll hold your hand and close my eyes,
It's here I'm staying all of my life

I'll never ever make you cry.
I'll never ever say goodbye.
Can't you see it in my eyes?
I'm yours until the day I die

I'll never ever make you cry.
I'll never ever say goodbye.
Can't you see it in my eyes?
I'm yours until the day I die

JUST LIKE A PRISONER

Just like a prisoner, he don't know right from wrong.

Just like a baby, he sings a pleading song

And that's why so many tears must fall.

Yes, that's why so many tears must fall.

Just like a sailor, he steers away from home.

He feels a tidal wave in his heart, but he ain't alone

And that's why so many tears must fall.

Yes, that's why so many tears must fall.

I'm like that prisoner, I don't know right from wrong.

Just like that baby, I sing a pleading song

And that's why you'll never know how I feel.

Yes, that's why you'll never know how I feel.

BEHIND THE SUN
My love has gone behind the sun;

Since she left, the darkness has begun.

The smile that used to shine on me

Is nothing more than a memory.

I see her face, I hear her voice.

She made her move, I had no choice

But walk and cry, wipe tears with my hand,

The one that carries a wedding band.

And the clouds hang low

And the flowers that used to grow

In my heart

Are dying now, dying now.

Dying now
