George Benson - Love Ballad

I have never been so much
In love, in love before
What a difference
How true love made in my life
So nice and so right

Lovers come and then lovers go
That's what the people say
Don't they know
How it feels when you love me
Hold me and say you care
And what we have is much more than they can see
And what we have is much more than they can see
Baby what we have is much more than they see
Oh baby, whoa yeah

I'm in love, I'm in love with you girl

I say love I never knew that a touch
Could mean, could mean so much
What a difference
And when we walk hand in hand
I feel, I feel so real

Lovers come and then lovers go
That's what the people say
Don't they know
How I feel when you love me
Hold me and say you care
And what we have is much more than they can see
And what we have is much more than they can see
Baby, what we have is much more than they can see

The Flaming Lips - Do You Realize?

Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize - we're floating in space -
Do You Realize - that happiness makes you cry
Do You Realize - that everyone you know someday will die

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

Do You Realize -
Do You Realize - that everyone you know
Someday will die -

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize

Over and Over - Shalamar

A breath of fresh air, that's what you are to me,when I need that room to breathe your part of me;
Your always right there,I look into your eyes and I see how hard it is to fight whats meant to be;
I'm giving in, cant fight a love so strong, boy don't stop keep it coming on and on ;
You're like sweet music to that same old song and the hook of love is all I hear;

Over and Over, I love you boy, and I've yet to find someone to come close to you,
Over and over, your my whole world

Hey boy I like the way you cover Love's ground, shows you got stability and those
Fringe benefits, babe, keep me from sleep boy
Got to help each other fight temptation.
Have you ever noticed the games that people play tryin' to get next to love without gettin' involved boy
Lets take it further, I'm talkin' all the way, and Ill show you love through ups and downs-ins and outs,
And baby over,
( No matter how many times a day, Ill never get enough of your love)
Over and over,
Over and over,(I tell you boy)

I need no more convincing, as far as I'm concerned your all the man I will ever need
When love is this good I could go on talking forever, but forever's just not enough time
To tell you over and over. (Oh I need you baby, I love you .)
Over and over
Nobody does what you do to me over and over
Over and over( No matter how many times a day, Ill never get enough of your love)

C & C Music Factory - Share That Beat of Love

Long ago, I had a special friend
Someone I gave me heart and trusted til the end
but then things when down, he really did me wrong
and left me feelings so confused, abandoned and alone

But then you came along like a breath of fresh air
Uplifting me, you showed me how much you care
so here we are, together you and me

Hey baby, lets share that beat of love
(share the beat of love, share the beat of love)
Lets share the beat of love
(share the beat of love, share the beat of love)

I wanna thank you for what you've done for me
how you helped me to express the love I have inside of me
I must confess, I held it deep inside
until you came along and showed me how to let my feelings fly

so here I am so in love with you
together we can feel very special groove
We've got the champagne darlin'
tonight's, the night

Funny how life can turn you around
one day you're lost, next day you're found
I'm so glad that we happened to find each other
The things that you do show me that you love me
and you know I love you too

So lets take this time to discover
all the possibilities love has got for you and me
I know the deal, this loves for real, yeah

Hey baby, lets share that beat of love
(share the beat of love, share the beat of love)
Lets share the beat of love
(share the beat of love, share the beat of love)

White Lies - From the Stars

I saw a friend that i once knew at a funeral,
He took the time out to be seen.
His eyes kept glancing to the hour hand on the gold watch, that he'd been given by a magazine.

He didn't cry when the priest gave the sermon,
Just pulled up the woolen collar on his fleece.
Crossed his arms, gave a sigh and checked the time again,
As he sat inches from the wife of the deceased.

He catches raindrops on his window, it reminds him how he falls,
From the stars back to our cities, where we've never felt so small

Rain drops from his window making puddles in his hands,
He thinks how quick the water's rising as another raindrop lands

He took a chauffeur driven car back to his hotel,
Passing through the sick streets where he was born
He said "Driver, what's happened to these buildings? They all look run down and so alone."

He took a shower in the bathroom of his penthouse,
Put the Do not Disturb on his door
When the maid came in the morning
She found him shivering on the bedroom floor

He catches raindrops on his window, it reminds him how he falls,
From the stars back to our cities, where we've never felt so small

Rain drops from his window making puddles in his hands,
He thinks how quick the water's rising as another raindrop lands

He catches raindrops on his window, it reminds him how he falls,
From the stars back to our cities, where we've never felt so small

Rain drops from his window making puddles in his hands,
He thinks how quick the water's rising as another raindrop lands

Come on get higher - Matt Nathanson

I miss the sound of your voice
And I miss the rush of your skin
And I miss the still of the silence
As you breathe out and I breathe in

If I could walk on water
If I could tell you what's next
I'd make you believe
I'd make you forget

So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire and the swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love
So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire and the swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love

I miss the sound of your voice
Loudest thing in my head
And I ache to remember
All the violent, sweet
Perfect words that you said

If I could walk on water
If I could tell you what's next
I'd make you believe
I'd make you forget

So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire and the swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love
So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire and the swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love

I miss the pull of your heart
I taste the sparks on your tongue
I see angels and devils
And God, when you come on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on

Sing sha la la la
Sing sha la la la la

Ooo Ooo Ooo...
So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire and the swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love
So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire and the swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me, drown me in love

It's all wrong, it's all wrong
It's all wrong, it's so right
So come on, get higher
So come on and get higher
'Cause everything works, love
Everything works in your arms.

You Make Me Feel Brand New
The Stylistics

My love,
I'll never find the words my love, to tell you how I feel my love.
Mere words, could not explain.

Precious love,
You held my life within your hands, created everything I am,
taught me how to live again.

Only you,
came when I needed a friend, believed in me through thick and thin,
this song is for you, filled with gratitude and love...

(Chorus) God bless you, you make me feel brand new,
for God bless me with you, you make me feel brand new,
I sing this song 'cause you, make me feel brand new.

My love,
When ever I was insecure, you built me up and made me sure,
you gave, my pride, back to me.

Precious friend,
with you I'll always have a friend, your someone who I can depend,
to walk a path that sometimes bends.

Without you,
Life has no meaning or rhyme, like notes to a song out of time,
how can I repay, you'll find heaven,faith and me...

(Chorus) God bless you, you make me feel brand new,
for God bless me with you, you make me feel brand new,
I sing this song for you.

Lou Rawls - Lady Love

Lady love, your love is peaceful
Like the summer's breeze
My lady love, with love that's tender
As a baby's touch
You give me all of the things
That I need so much
You're my world, lady love

Lady love, your love is cooling
Like the winter snow
My lady love, with love that's cozy
As a fire's glow
And I keep on needing you, girl
A little more and more
And I thank you, my lady love

You know, it's not easy to keep love flowing smooth
People are people and they all have their moods
But it's so nice just to have someone like you
Who wants a smooth and easy thing
And all the good times that it brings

My lady love, you've been with me
Through all of my ups and downs
My lady love, I once was lost
But now with you I'm found
You got the love I need
And I want to stay around
Heaven sent you down, my lady love

Let me tell you that it's not easy to keep love flowing smooth
You know, people are people, they all have their moods
But it's so nice just to have someone like you
Who wants a smooth and easy thing
And all the good times and the joy that it brings

My lady love, you've been with me
Through all of my ups and downs
And my crazy turn-arounds
My lady love, you got the love I need
So stay around
Heaven sent my lady love

Lady love, sweet lady love
You are so good to me
Lady love, like a warm summer breeze
(So glad I found my lady love, lady love)
(so glad I found my lady love, lady love)

[Double Trouble]

I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart, that you're really a part of me
I've got you under my skin

I've tried so not to give in
I've said to myself this affair never will go so well
But why should I try to resist, when baby will I know than well
That I've got you under my skin

Id sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear

Don't you know you fool, you never can win
Use your mentality, wake up to reality
But each time I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
cause I've got you under my skin

[Gav]

The Ella Fitzgerald version, of course...

It's too darn hot!
It's too darn hot!
I'd like to sup with my baby tonight,
Refill the cup with my baby tonight.
I'd like to sup with my baby tonight,
Refill the cup with my baby tonight,
But I ain't up to my baby tonight
'Cause it's too darn hot

It's too darn hot!
It's too darn hot!
I'd like to coo with my baby tonight,
And pitch the woo with my baby tonight.
I'd like to coo with my baby tonight,
And pitch the woo with my baby tonight.
But brother you fight my baby tonight
'Cause it's too darn hot

According to the Kinsey Report
Every average man you know
Much prefers his love-y dove-y to court
When the temperature is low,
But when the thermometer goes way up
And the weather is sizzling hot,
Mister pants
for romance
is not

'Cause it's too, too,
Too darn hot!
It's too darn hot!
It's too, too darn hot!
I'd like to coo with my baby tonight
And pitch the woo with my baby tonight
I'd like to coo with my baby tonight,
Pitch the woo with my baby tonight
But brother, you fight my baby tonight
'Cause it's too darn hot!

According to the Kinsey Report
Every average man you know
Much prefers his love-y dove-y to court
When the temperature is low
But when the thermometer goes way up
And the weather is sizzling hot,
Mr. Gob for his squab,
A marine for his queen,
A G.I. for his cutie-pie is not

'Cause it's too, too,
Too darn hot!
It's too darn hot!
It's too darn hot
It's too darn hot
It's too darn hot
It's too darn hot!

[Beowulf]

in the same vein !

"It's hot here at night, lonely, black and quiet
On a hot summer night
Don't be afraid of the world we made
On a hot summer night

'Cause when a long-legged lovely walks by
Yeah you can see the look in her eye
Then you know that it's

Hot in the city, hot in the city tonight, tonight
Hot in the city, hot in the city tonight, tonight"

etc etc etc

John Lennon

Woman, I can hardly express
My mixed emotions at my thoughtlessness
After all I'm forever in your debt
And woman, I will try to express
My inner feelings and thankfulness
For showing me the meaning of success

Ooh, well, well
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Ooh, well, well
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

Woman, I know you understand
The little child inside of the man
Please remember my life is in your hands
And woman, hold me close to your heart
However distant don't keep us apart
After all it is written in the stars

Ooh, well, well
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Ooh, well, well
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Well

Woman, please let me explain
I never meant to cause you sorrow or pain
So let me tell you again and again and again

I love you, yeah, yeah
Now and forever
I love you, yeah, yeah
Now and forever
I love you, yeah, yeah
Now and forever
I love you, yeah, yeah

The Beatles

I give her all my love
That's all I do
And if you saw my love
You'd love her too
I love her

She gives me everything
And tenderly
The kiss my lover brings
She brings to me
And I love her

A love like ours
Could never die
As long as I
Have you near me

Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her

Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her

Roy Orbison

Every time I look into your lovely eyes,
I see a love that money just cant buy.
One look from you, I drift away.
I pray that you are here to stay.

Anything you want, you got it.
Anything you need, you got it.
Anything at all, you got it.
Baby!

Every time I hold you I begin to understand,
Everything about you tells me I'm your man.
I live my life to be with you.
No one can do the things you do.

Anything you want, you got it.
Anything you need, you got it.
Anything at all, you got it.
Baby!
Anything you want
Anything you need
Anything at all

I'm glad to give my love to you.
I know you feel the way I do.

Anything you want, you got it.
Anything you need, you got it.
Anything at all, you got it.
Baby!
Anything you want, you got it
Anything you need, you got it
Anything at all, you got it
Baby
Anything at all
Baby
You got it.

The Veronicas - This is How it Feels

You keep calling my phone non-stop
Don't you know I won't pick it up
You never leave a message
Look how you've changed

You got nothing to say, gettin' in the way
Show up at my house
Your gettin' so obsessive
Like I have time for you

Wasn't it me you didn't want?
Wasn't it me who was hanging on?
Now I'm done but before I go I want you to know ...

This is how it feels
When you wait for a call that never comes
Are you waking up 'cause you miss someone?
This is how it feels
When the trust you had is broken,
And your left to burn with your heart wide open

Oh Oh

You wanted me, not to tell me why
Why and how you had the heart to f**k up my whole life
That's just so you

And now I've moved on by myself
And maybe I won't forgive
I'll just forget you lived
And I hope it hurts

Wasn't it me you tried to blame?
Wasn't it me you threw away?
But before you go there's something you should know ...

This is how it feels
When you wait for a call that never comes
Are you waking up 'cause you miss someone?
This is how it feels (oh oh)
When the trust you had is broken,
And your left to burn with your heart wide open

You taught me how to hate you
And I was so in love
When I tried to save us it was not enough
So what the hell is different
'cause now that I am gone
You're crawling back to tell me
I'm the one

Oh Oh
This is how it feels
Oh Oh
This is how it feels

When you wait for a call that never comes
Are you waking up 'cause you miss someone?
This is how it feels (oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
When the trust you had is broken,
And your left to burn with your heart wide open

Do you only want me
'cause you can't have me?
Do you only want me
'cause I'm gone?
Do you only want me
'cause you can't have me?
Do you only want me
'cause I'm gone?
Do you only want me
'cause you can't have me?
Do you only want me
'cause I'm gone?
Do you only want me
'cause you can't have me?
Do you only want me
'cause I'm gone?

Oh Oh

At Last Lyrics by Etta James

At last, my love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song
Oh, yeah, at last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clovers
The night I looked at you
I found a dream that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to rest my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known
Oh, yeah when you smile, you smile
Oh, and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine
At last

HoneySuckle Rose - Jonathan Stout and his Campus 5 feat. Hilary Alexander (Razaf/Waller)

Evry honeybee.... fills with jealousy
When they see you out with me
I don't blame them....goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

When you're passin' by....flowers drop and sigh
And I know the reason why
You're much sweeter....goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

Don't buy sugar....you just have to touch my cup
You're my sugar....its so sweet when you stir it up

When I'm taking sips...from your tasty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're confection.....goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose.

Don't buy sugar....you just have to touch my cup
You're my sugar....its so sweet when you stir it up

When I'm taking sips...from your tasty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're confection.....goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose.

I said you're confection.....goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose.

As Long As I Live - Jonathan Stout and his Campus 5 feat. Hilary Alexander (Arlin/Koehler)

Maybe I cant live to love you as long as I want to.
Life isn't long enough baby, but I can love you as long as I live.

Maybe I cant give you diamonds and things like I want to,
But I can promise you, baby, I'm gonna want to as long as I live.

I never cared, but now I'm scared, I wont live long enough.
That's why I wear my rubbers when it rains and eat an apple every day then see the doctor anyway.

What if I cant live to love you as long as I want to.
Long as I promise you, baby, I'm gonna love you as long I live.

I'll even wear long underwear, when winter breezes blow
I'm gonna take good care of me because, a sneeze or two might mean the flu, and that would never never do

What if I cant live to love you as long as I want to.
Long as I promise you, baby, I'm gonna love you as long I live.
