In The Beginning

Don't put me off 'cause i'm on fire
And i can't quench my desire
Don't you know that i'm burning up for your love
You're not convinced that that is enough
I put myself in this position
And i deserve the imposition
But you don't even know i'm alive
And this pounding in my heart just won't die
I'm burning up

Chorus:

I'm burning up, burning up for your love
I'm burning up, burning up for your love
I'm burning up, burning up for your love
For your love

You're always closing your door
Well that only makes me want you more
And day and night i cry for your love
You're not convinced that that is enough
To justify my wanting you
Now tell me what you want me to do
I'm not blind and i know
That you want to want me but you can't let go
Come on, let go

(chorus)

Oh

Intermediate:

Do you wanna see me down on my knees?
Or bending over backwards now would you be pleased?
Unlike the others i'd do anything
I'm not the same, i have no shame
I'm on fire

Come on, let go

(intermediate)

[burning up for your love]
Ooo, yeah, i'm burning up [burning up for your love]
Ooo, yeah, i'm burning up [burning up for your love]
Come on, come on, i'm burning up [burning up for your love]
Uh, uh, uh, i'm burning up [burning up for your love]
Ooo, yeah, i'm burning up [burning up for your love]
Come on, come on, i'm burning up [burning up for your love]
Ooo, yeah, i'm burning up [burning up for your love]
Uh, uh, uh [burning up for your love]

You know you got me burning up, baby [burning up for your love]
You know you got me burning up, baby [burning up for your love]

Burning up for your love [burning up for your love]
Burning up for your love [burning up for your love]
(repeat and fade)

Verse:

Am i just dreaming or did you walk through my door?
Do you still feel the same way that you did before?
Did you come to bring me sorrow?
Like all those wasted days
Let's not think about tomorrow

You can stay

Am i just dreaming or did you say you have to go?
If you can't stay forever, i don't wanna know
There's no need to talk about it
The way things used to be
I'm not living here without you

(chorus:)

Won't you stay, stay darlin'
You could stay, stay darlin'
Won't you stay, stay darlin'
You could stay, stay darlin'

You could stay, stay, stay darlin'
You could stay, stay, stay darlin'
(repeat)

No, no, can't let go
No, no, can't let go
No, no, can't let go

Am i just dreaming?

(verse)

You could stay, stay darlin'
You could stay, stay darlin'
Won't you stay, stay darlin'
You could stay, stay darlin'
(repeat)

You could stay, stay, stay darlin'
You could stay, stay, stay darlin'
(repeat and fade)

I can't lock my door
Oh, i don't have no privacy
The only thing that's mine
Is what's inside of me

When i've had enough
A little voice inside
It says you've got to be tough
You've got to take it in stride

Sometimes i am foolish
I let it get the best of me
At least i know that my mistakes
Are my responsibility
And

Chorus:

I just have to laugh to keep from crying
I just have to laugh to keep from crying

I don't have a dime
Oh, to buy those pretty things
But i hear all the evidence
You know it all sounds the same

But i'm still waiting
I've got my hands open wide
You know my dream isn't fading
I keep it hidden inside
Oh

(chorus)

I just have to laugh to keep from crying
I keep on trying

My friends don't understand
Oh, they think i've lost my mind
And i'm choking back the tears
I've got to swallow my pride

(chorus)

I just have to laugh, ah
La, ah
Lo, oh
La, ah

Everybody, come on
Everybody, you can do your thing
(repeat for track 7)

Chorus:

Everybody, come on, dance and sing
Everybody, get up and do your thing
Everybody, come on, dance and sing
Everybody, get up and do your thing

Let the music take control
Find a groove and let yourself go
When the room begins to sway
You know what i'm trying to say

Come on, take a chance
Get up and start the dance
Let the d.j. shake you
Let the music take you

(chorus)

Let your body take a ride
Feel the beat and step inside
Music makes the world go 'round
You can turn your troubles upside down

Gonna have to change your mind
Gonna leave your troubles behind
Your body gets the notion
When your feet can make the motion

(chorus, repeat)

Dance and sing, get up and do your thing (repeat 3 times)

Let the music take control
Find a groove and let yourself go
When the room begins to sway
You know what i'm trying to say

Come on, take a chance
Get up and start the dance
Let the d.j. shake you
Let the music take you

(chorus, repeat)

[everybody] dance and sing
[come on] get up and do your thing
[everybody] dance and sing
[you can do your thing] get up and do your thing
(repeat and fade)

Chorus:

Crimes of passion
Give me such a sweet reaction
Oh, crimes of passion
Give me so much satisfaction

Don't play dumb with me, i know you know the score
I wait impatiently, tonight i'm yours
Show you what it's like to have your cake and eat it too
I think you'll like what i'm gonna do, oh

(chorus)

I'm not the type of girl who likes to settle down
Some people say that i just want to fool around
Once i get a taste i want more
I'm like a baby in a candy store, oh

(chorus)

Intermediate:

There's no reason to feel guilty
It's too late now, what's done is done
If you can keep it a secret darlin'
We can have some fun

I always want the things that i can't get
I don't believe in rules that you can't bend
Even when you say you've got someone at home
Tell her tonight that she's on her own

(intermediate)
Oh

(chorus)

Oh, crimes of passion [sweet reaction]
Give me such a sweet reaction [so much satisfaction]
Oh, crimes of passion [sweet reaction]
Give me so much satisfaction
Oh, crimes of passion [sweet reaction]
Give me such a sweet reaction [so much satisfaction]
Oh, crimes of passion [sweet reaction]
Give me so much satisfaction
