Very Fine Love

(dianne warren)

I know some lovers would be satisfied
With sweet "i love you's" and some pretty lines
But that won't get you in this heart of mine
No, you'll never steal my heart away
With just words, sweet words that you say
It is all in the things that you do
I'm telling you

If you want me to believe
That i'm the only one you need
I need lovin' proof
I need lovin' proof
Baby, hold me in your arms
And show me something from the heart
Give me lovin' proof
I need lovin' proof from you

And if the love you got is strong and true
And if you love me like you say you do
Your tender touch will tell the honest truth
And your kiss could never tell a lie
'cause i'd see it in your eyes
There is one way to ease any doubt
I tell you now

If you want me to believe
That i'm the only one you need
I need lovin' proof
I need lovin' proof
Baby, i won't be impressed
Unless i get some tenderness
Give me lovin' proof
I need lovin' proof, oh, oh, from you, oh, oh

(i need lovin' proof)
If the love is right
(i need lovin' proof)
Prove it, prove it all night
(i need lovin' proof)
From you
'cause you'll never steal my heart away
With just words, sweet words that you say
It is all in the things you do
I'm telling you, telling you baby

If you want me to believe
That i'm the only one you need
I need lovin' proof
I need lovin' proof
Baby, hold me in your arms
And tell me something from the heart
I need lovin' proof
Give me lovin' proof, oh, oh, from you

If you want me to believe
That i'm the only one i need
I need lovin' proof
Lovin' proof
Baby, hold me in your arms
And show me, show me
Give me lovin' proof
I need lovin' proof
Ooh, baby, baby
Ooh, ooh
Give me, give me, give me

(john jarvis & randy goodrum)

I hear you baby, i know how you feel
We're both hungry for something that's real
Be honest with me or don't even try
'cause i can't afford another goodbye

Go easy on me, baby, not too rough
If this is right, there's no need to rush
Oh, go easy on me, if you don't mind
'cause i can't afford to lose another time

Starting over isn't easy as it sounds
When you try to make the pieces fit
They all fall down
And i need more than someone to hold on to
I need a love that's tried and true
It's what i'm searching for
It's worth waiting for

Talk gently to me, nice and low
If you mean it, baby, my heart will know
Oh, go easy on me, like walking on ice
'cause forever happens once not twice

Starting over isn't easy as it sounds
When you try to make the pieces fit
They all fall down
And i need more than someone to hold on to
I need a love that's tried and true
It's what i'm looking for
It's worth waiting for

Go easy on me, baby, not too rough
If this is right, we'll know soon enough
Oh, go easy on me, not too fast
I gotta believe that what's between us
Can be more than just a promise
'cause they don't last
So all that i ask
Go easy on me
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Easy, ooh, ooh, ooh

(matraca berg / ronnie samoset)

I see you standing there
Outside the windows of my heart
So cold and shivering
There in your world that is so dark

I wish that i could set you free
From all your insecurities
But you threw away the key
When you locked the door

I tried to love you
I tried to keep you from harm
But i might as well be
Holding the wind in my arms
Oh, i can't give you shelter
When you are the storm

There is a wind tonight
That blows and chills me to the bone
Here by the fireside
Even the heat can't keep me warm

I'm haunted by your troubled soul
That rages out of control
I had to let you go
Had to let you go

I tried to love you
I tried to keep you from harm
But i might as well be
Holding the wind in my arms
Oh, i can't give you shelter
When you are the storm

Sometimes i lie here and wonder
If you'll ever change
Then i hear the lightning and thunder
Oh, and the rain

Oh, i tried to love you
And i tried to keep you from harm
But i might as well be
Holding the wind in my arms
Oh, i can't give you shelter
You are the storm
Oh, i can't give you shelter
You are the storm
Oh, oh, oh, oh

(graham lyle / terry britten)

It's my decision
You look my way
With innocent expression
Just as if to say
It would be easy
The mood is right
Forget for just one moment
Who we are tonight
I start
To weaken the music's strong
My conscience speaks, i know it's wrong

Give it up
Remember what you said
This kind of loving doesn't happen everyday
Give it up
That's the way it starts
Discover old habits die hard
Temptation makes a fool out of us all

I made my mind up
It had to end
So why this indecision?
When you're close again
Oh, the thought's appealing
I can't deny
With those old memories stealing
Back across my mind
I thought by now that the flame had gone
I realise that i'm still holding on

Give it up
Remember what you said
This kind of loving doesn't happen everyday, no
Give it up
That's the way it starts
Discover old habits die hard
Temptation makes a fool out of us all, ooh, ooh, ooh

I'll just keep holding on
It's easier said than done

(old habits die hard)

Give it up
Remember what you said
This kind of loving doesn't happen everyday, no
Give it up
That's the way it starts
Discover old habits die hard
Give it up
Remember what you said
This kind of loving doesn't happen everyday, no
Give it up
That's the way it starts
Discover old habits die hard
Give it up
Remember what you said
This kind of loving doesn't happen everyday
Give it up
That's the way it starts
Discover old habits die hard

(tom shapiro / chris waters / michael garvin)

You want me to say i love you too
There's nothing in the world i'd rather do
You will never know how hard i've tried
But i can't change the way i feel inside

It's nothing that you did or haven't done
Who knows what makes somebody love someone?
I wish that's the way that we could be
But love is up to love and not to me

I can't help the way that i don't feel
Take what isn't there and make it real
You're where i should be going
But my heart is at the wheel
And i can't help the way that i don't feel

It's nothing that you did or haven't done
Who knows what makes somebody love someone?
I wish that's the way that we could be
But love is up to love and not to me

I can't help the way that i don't feel
Take what isn't there and make it real
You're where i should be going
But my heart is at the wheel
And i can't help the way that i don't feel, oh

I can't help the way that i don't feel
Take what isn't there and make it real
You're where i should be going
But my heart is at the wheel
And i can't help the way, the way that i don't feel, oh, oh
