1. _ If You Don't Know Me By Now
if you don't know me by now
you will never never never know me
all the things that we've been through
you should understand me like i understand you
now girl i know the difference between right and wrong
i ain't gonna do nothing to break up your happy home
don't get so excited when i come home a little late at night
'cos we only act like children when we argue fuss and fight
if you don't know me by now
you will never never never know me
we've all got our funny moods
i've got mine woman you've got yours too
just trust in me like i trust in you
as long as we've been together it should be so easy to do
just get yourself together or we might as well say goodbye
what good is a love affair when you can't see eye to eye
if you don't know me by now
you will never never never know me

2. _ Stars
anyone who ever held you
would tell you the way i'm feeling
anyone who ever wanted you
would try to tell you what i feel inside
the only thing i ever wanted
was the feeling that you ain't faking
the only one you ever thought about
wait a minute can't you see that i
i wanna fall from the stars
straight into your arms
i i feel you
i hope you comprehend
for the man who tried to hurt you
he's explaining the way i'm feeling
for all the jealousy i caused you
states the reason why i'm trying to hide
as for all the things you taught me
it sends my future into clearer dimensions
you'll never know how much you hurt me
stay a minute can't you see that i
i wanna fall from the stars
straight into your arms
i i feel you
i hope you comprehend
too many hearts are broken
a lover's promise never came with a maybe
so many words are left unspoken
the silent voices are driving me crazy
as for all the pain you caused me
making up could never be your intention
you'll never know how much you hurt me
stay can't you see that i
i wanna fall from the stars
straight into your arms
i i feel you
i hope you comprehend

3. _ The Right Thing
in the middle of the night
when the time is right
sexily right
i'm gonna do the right thing
i'm feeling hot
i ain't ever gonna stop
to get what you got

ok i'm the one who took you for granted
i've made my mistakes wake up let's not break up
thrill me you've got a love so strong
thrill me you really turn me on

5. _ Holding Back The Years
holding back the years
thinking of the fear i've had so long
when somebody hears
listen to the fear that's gone
strangled by the wishes of pater
hoping for the arms of mater
get to meet her sooner or later
i'll keep holding on
i'll keep holding on
holding back the years
chance for me escape from all i've known
holding back the tears
cause nothing here has grown
i've wasted all my tears
wasted all those years
and nothing had the chance to be good
nothing ever could
i'll keep holding on
i'll keep holding on
that's all i have today
that's all i have to say

6. _ So Beautiful
i was listening to this conversation
noticing my daydream stimulated me more
i was crumbling with anticipation
you better send me home before i tumble down to the floor
you're so beautiful but oh so boring
i'm wondering what am i doing here
so beautiful but oh so boring i'm wondering
if anyone out there really cares
about the curlers in your hair
my little golden baby where have all your birds flown now
something's glistening in my imagination
motivating something close to breaking the law
wait a mo before you take me down to the station
i've never known a one who'd make me suicidal before
she was so beautiful but oh so boring
i'm wondering what was i doing there
so beautiful but oh so boring i'm wondering
if anyone out there really cares
about the colour of your hair
my little golden baby where have all your birds flown now

7. _ Fairground
driving down an endless road
taking friends or moving alone
pleasure at the fairground on the way
it's always friends that feel so good
let's make amends like all good men should
pleasure at the fairground on the way
walk around be free and roam
there's always someone leaving alone
pleasure at the fairground on the way
and i love the thought of coming home to you
even if i know we can't make it
i love the thought of giving hope to you
just a little ray of light shining through
love can bend and breathe alone
until the end it finds you a home
don't care what the people may say
it's always friends that feel so good
let's make amends like all good men should
pleasure at the fairground on the way
and i love the thought of coming home to you
even if i know we can't make it
i love the thought of giving hope to you
just a little ray of light shining through

8. _ A New Flame
i was bowled out
i was sold down the river
but her warm heart
would turn me forever
she's turned me round
a new flame has come
and nothing she can do can do me wrong
i am stern now
petty words
don't believe me
but her warm smile
is never gonna leave me
she's turned me round
a new flame has come
and nothing she can do can do me wrong
wrong oh no
wrong oh no
she's made of real glass
she got real real emotion
but my heart laughs
i have that same sweet devotion
she's turned me round
a new flame has come
and nothing she can do can do me wrong
wrong oh no
wrong oh no
nothing she can do can ever do me wrong

10. _ Your Mirror
i've got to stand up for myself
this society don't care about nobody else
i've got to be strong
even if i know that this feeling is wrong
i've got to not care
even if i know that this world is meant to share
wait a minute this is wrong
even the birds still sing their faithful song
and your beauty lies within you
look in the mirror baby
look in the mirror baby
what you gonna do when your friends have gone away
and deserted you
you'll have to be strong
24 hours can seem so long
you're taught to not care
and then not realise this world is meant to share
wait a minute it's wrong
even the birds still sing their faithful song
and your beauty lies within you
look in the mirror baby
look in the mirror baby
we've got to stand up for ourselves
even if a leader so cold wants to glory himself
we've got to be strong
even if our reasons seem wrong
we've got to not care
even if the world that we know may not even be here
hold it it's wrong
even the birds still sing their faithful song
and your beauty lies within you
look in the mirror baby
look in the mirror baby

11. _ For Your Babies
you've got that look again
the one i hoped i had when i was a lad
your face is just beaming
your smile got me boasting my pulse roller coastering
anyway the four winds that blow
they're gonna send me sailing home to you
or i'll fly with the force of a rainbow
the dream of gold will be waiting in your eyes
you know i'd do most anything you want
hey i i try to give you everything you need
i can see that it gets to you
i don't believe in may things
but in you i do
her faith is amazing
the pain that she goes through contained in the hope for you
your whole world has changed
the years spent before seem more cloudy than blue
in many ways your baby's controlling
when you haven't laid down for days
for the poor no time to be thinking
they're too busy finding ways
you know i'd do most anything you want
hey i i try to give you everything you need
i'll see that it gets to you
i don't believe in many things
but in you i do
you know i'd do most anything you want
everyday i i try to give you everything you need
we'll always be there for you
i don't believe in many things
but in you i do

12. _ Angel
gotta find me an angel
to fly away with me
gotta find me an angel
who set me free
my heart is without a home
i don't want to be alone
gotta find me an angel
in my life
too long have i loved
so unattached within
so much that i learn
that i need somebody so
still i'll just go on
hoping that i'll find someone
gotta find me an angel in my life
i know there must be someone someone for me
i've lived too long without the love of someone
and there's no misery like the misery i feel in me
gotta find me an angel in my life
she'll be there now don't you worry
keep looking now just keep looking

13. _ Money's Too Tight To Mention
i been laid off from work my rent is due
my kids all need brand new shoes
so i went to the bank to see what they could do
they said son looks like bad luck got a hold on you
money's too tight to mention
i can't get an unemployment extension
money's too tight to mention
i went to my brother to see what he could do
he said brother i'd like to help but i'm unable to
so called on my father father
almighty father he said
money's too tight to mention
oh money money money money
money's too tight to mention
i can't even qualify for my pension
we're talking 'bout reaganomics
oh lord down in the congress
they're passing all kinds of bills
from up there on capitol hill we've tried it
money's too tight to mention
oh money money money money
money's too tight to mention
cutbacks
we're talking 'bout the dollar bill
and that old man who's over the hill
now what are we all to do
when money's got a hold on you
money's too tight etc
we're talking 'bout money money
we're talking 'bout money money

14. _ You've Got It
This impossible power
A strength that i can't see
There's no way
That i can let you go
Why did i mistake sex
For another sense
Then wanted someone else
To try to tell you no
I think you understand
Oh that you've got it
I try hard but i can't
Oh do without it
I think you understand
That you've got it
This impossible power
Has broken into me
And stolen all the sense
That i had before
Why did i just take
And never understand
The love you've given me
Could've learnt me more
I think you understand
Oh that you've got it
I try hard but i can't
Oh do without it
I think you understand
That you've got it
What made you think
That i'd be true to you
I needed to
Prove it to myself
That i could let you go
What made you think that
I'd be a fool for you
You knew that i was lying
There was something
I was hiding
I think you understand
Oh that you've got it
Well i try hard but i can't
Oh do without it

i truly know that i need you

16. _ So Beautifui
I was listening to this conversation
Noticing my daydream stimulated me more
I was crumbling with anticipation
You better send me home before i tumble down to the
Floor
You're so beautiful but oh so boring
I'm wondering what am i doing here
So beautiful but oh so boring, i'm wondering
If anyone out there really cares
About the curlers in your hair
My little golden baby, where have all your birds flown
Now?
Something's glistening in my imagination
Motivating something close to breaking the law
Wait a mo before you take me down to the station
I've never known a one who'd make me suicidal before
She was so beautiful but oh so boring
I'm wondering what was i doing there
So beautiful but oh so boring, i'm wondering
If anyone out there really cares
About the colour of your hair
My little golden baby, where have all your birds flown
Now?
