1. _ Hide Your Heart
(desmond child/paul stanley/holly knight)
Producer for bonnie: desmond child
Johnny saw her ridin' on a streetcar named "desire"
His fate was sealed
She could see him comin' like a hundred other liars
It was no big deal
Rosa had a lover on the shady side of town
Tito, he was king op the streets
She was his possession like a jewel on his crown
Johnny better run, better run....
Better hide your heart
Better hold on tight
Better say your prayers
Cause there's trouble tonight
When pride and love battle with desire
Better hide your heart
Cause you're playin' with fire
Ah, ah, ah, ah/ hey, hey, hey/do, do, do, do...
The ride was over but the story doesn't end
He took her heart
She looked him in the eye
And said they couldn't meet again
You could see the trouble start
The word went out that rosa's messin' with someone
It was on the street
Tito looked for johnny with a vengeance and a gun
Johnny better run, better run...
Johnny's holdin' rosa on a rooftop in the night
As time stood still
They couldn't hear him comin'
Till he had them both in sight
You could feel the chill
A shot rang out like thunder
And the blood was on her hands
With nothing won
When someone lies there dyin'
Lovers finally understand....

2. _ Don't Turn Around
(diane warren/ albert hammond)
Producer for bonnie: desmond child
If you wanna leave
I won't beg you to stay
And if you gotta go darling
Maybe it's better that way
I'm gonna be strong
I'm gonna do fine
Don't worry about this heart of mine
Just walk out that door
Yeah see if i care
Go on and go now but
Don't turn around
Cause you're gonna see my heart breaking
Don't turn around
I don't want you seeing me cry
Just walk away
It's tearing me apart that you're leaving
I'm letting you go
But i won't let you know
I won't miss your arms around me
Holding me tight
If you ever think about me
Just know that i'll be alright
I'm gonna be strong
I'm gonna do fine
Don't worry about this heart of mine
I know i'll survive
Sure i'll make it through
And i'll even learn to live without you
Don't turn around
Cause you're gonna see my heart breaking
Don't turn around
I don't want you seeing me cry
Just walk away
It's tearing me apart that you're leaving
I'm letting you go
But i won't let you know
I wish i could scream out loud
That i love you
Wish i could say to you
Don't go don't go don't go but
Don't turn around
Cause you're gonna see my heart breaking
Don't turn around
I don't want you seeing me cry
Just walk away
It's tearing me apart that you're leaving
I'm letting you go
But i won't let you know

3. _ The Best
(holly knight/ mike chapman)
Producer for bonnie: desmond child
I call you when i need you
And my heart's on fire
You come to me, come to me
Wild and wired
You come to me, give me everything i need
You bring a lifetime of promises
And a world of dreams
You speak the language of love
Like you know what it means
And it can't be wrong
Take my heart and make it strong
Cause you're simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone i ever met
I'm stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you said
Tear us apart
Baby i would rather be dead
Deep in your heart
I see the start
Of every night and every day
And in your eyes i get lost
I get washed away
Just as long as i'm here in your arms
I could be in no better place
Cause you're simply the best

4. _ Streets Of Little Italy
(robbie seidman)
Producer for bonnie: desmond child
The narrow and the winding ways
The streets of old new york
The families, the street life, the spark
The rooftop where we watched
San gennaro's festival
Masquerades in the dark...
On the streets down in little italy
Where the past goes on and on forever
And i feel it ever present
In every step i take alone
On the streets down in little italy
The oceans and the years
That separate our lives
From these streets we once called our home
Those distances of space and time
How strong they are
And how weak they are...
On the streets down in little italy
Where the past goes on and on forever
And i feel it ever present
In every step i take alone
On the streets down in little italy
Does the morning sunlight
Still hit the bed where we used to lie
Do the sidewalk stands and markets still overflow
Where i lingered till i was empty
Where i stayed till i had to go
Though in the night
Sometimes i see you disappear
Down cobblestones...
On the streets down in little italy
Where the past goes on and on forever
And i feel it ever present
In every step i take alone
Like your presence in my bones
On the streets down in little italy

5. _ To Love Somebody
(barry gibb/ robin gibb/ maurice gibb)
Producer for bonnie: desmond child
There's a light
A certain kind of light
That never shone on me
I want my life to be lived with you
There's a way, everybody say
To do each and every little thing
But what good does it bring
If i ain't got you
You don't know what it's like
Baby you don't know what it's like
To love somebody, to love somebody
The way i love you
In my pain, i see your face again
It's burning in my mind
You ain't got to be so blind that i'm alive
I'm a woman, can't you see what i am
I live and breathe for you
But what good does it do, if i ain't got you
If i ain't got you...

6. _ Notes From America
(desmond child/ robbie seidman)
Producer for bonnie: desmond child
Somewhere in america
The tour bus roars through the dead of night
The sleeping towns fade out of sight
You know what i mean
Here it comes and goes so fast
Lookin' out this window
I just see black
Sometimes i wish that i was back
And this was all a dream
I been up and down
I been lost and found
In america, in america
I been turned around
Till i don't know where i'm bound
In america, in america
And i miss you now
Just a note from america...
Livin' on the road again
I'm the only woman
In this rock and roll band
Fifty states of one night stands
You know what i mean
Railroad crossing, midnight train
Just the lonely sound
Of the clickety-clack
Still i know i can't turn back
American dream....
I been up and down
I been lost and found
In america, in america
I been turned around
Till i don't know where i'm bound
In america, in america
And i miss you now
Just a note from america...
Sometimes when it gets to me
I dream that you are next to me
I can feel you near (whisperin' my name)
I can feel your touch (take away my pain)
I can hear you say
"i just want to love you again"
Baby, baby....

7. _ Save Up All Your Tears
(desmond child/ diane warren)
Producer for bonnie: desmond child
I can't figure you out
But a heart must be the one thing
You were born without
I'm through wasting my time
I don't know where i'll sleep tonight
You say that you can do without me
Go ahead now, try and live without me....
Baby, save up all your tears
You might need them someday
When the tears start to fall
I won't wipe them away
When you cry in the night
For the love that you need
Baby, save up your tears
Cause you'll be cryin' over me
You got used to my touch
I got used to not feeling much
Winter set in your eyes
Time will melt your castle of ice
You think that you won't feel the pain now
Your eyes'll be cryin' like the rain now....
Baby, save up all your tears
You might need them someday
When the tears start to fall
I won't wipe them away
When you cry in the night
For the love that you need
Baby, save up your tears
Cause you'll be cryin' over me
You don't know it now
But some wounds get deeper with time
You don't feel it now
Till the need burns, a knife turns
Your heart bleeds like mine....

8. _ Take Another Look At Your Heart
(desmond child/ michael bolton)
Producer for bonnie: desmond child
There must be somethin' that we can share
Why is it all or nothin' everywhere
You got your life and i got mine
Why's our relationship hangin' on the line
I don't want to own you
I just want to know you
I just want to love you
More than words can say....
Baby, take another look at your heart
And tell me you don't want me
Baby, tell me you're not comin' apart
I can hold out 'til you break
Baby take another look at your heart
You're breakin' up, that's no surprise
So much invested in our so-called "love lives"
Give it up, heart over mind
You can't explain away
The tears you been cryin'
I don't want to own you
I just want to know you
I just want to love you
More than words can say

9. _ Shy With You
(robbie seidman)
Producer for bonnie: desmond child
More than often when i'm with you
I become a nervous kid
I imagine your old girlfriends
I imagine what you did
I don't know if this is normal
I don't know if this is love
With you i get so formal
And i feel all this other stuff
Shy with you
Though i've been around the block
Shy with you
Cause you're the one i really want
Other guys i don't care about
So easy with them
Anything you can do without
So easy to win
I can't do without your love
So i try to play it cool
Everytime you call my bluff
I just stand there like a fool
Shy with you
Though i've been around the block
Shy with you
Cause you're the one i really want
Shy with you
Sometimes a heart can hurt a lot
Shy with you
Cause you're the one i really want
I need your love
I need your love to see me through
I want you
I want you and so it's true
Shy with you...shy with you...shy with you...

10. _ Turtle Blues
(janis joplin)
Producer for bonnie: desmond child
I'm a mean, mean woman
I don't mean no one man no good
I'm a mean, mean woman
I don't mean no one man no good
I just treats 'em like i wants to
Never ever treats 'em honey, like i should
Oh lord i once had a daddy
He said he'd give me everything in sight
Once had a daddy
Said he'd give me everything in sight
I said hon, i want the sunshine
And take the stars out of the night
I ain't the kind of woman
Who'd make your life a bed of ease
I'm not the kind of woman
To make your life a bed of ease
Yeah, but if you just wanna go out drinkin', honey
Invite me along please
I guess i'm just like a turtle
Hidin' underneath his horny shell
Just like a turtle
Hidin' underneath his horny shell
But you know i'm very well protected
I know this doggone life too well
Oh, they call me mean, people call me evil
I'm not the kind of woman you can mess around
They call me mean, people call me evil
I'm not the kind of woman you can mess around
But i'm gonna take good care of bonnie, yeah
There ain't no one gonna talk me down...
