(B. Adams — J. Vallance)
Will you risk your reputation? — I don't know; You just don't know what you're saying — any more; You know beggars can't be choosers — and it's fair; We may win, we may be losers; I don't care, no, no, no… Oh baby, I just can't stand another lonely night; So come over and save me; Save me from another lonely night I hear every word you're saying — they're all lies; But with every breath you're taking; You're thinking of ways to say good night...
(B. Adams — J. Vallance)
I've got one hand on your door And one hand in my pocket The world is on my shoulders And I'm trying to get to you Getting pretty worried Now that Ronnie's in the office I shouldn't let it get to me There's nothing I can do I think that you should know by now You've done the damage now it can't be changed So give me one good reason One good reason to stay Well I knew that you were sleeping And I didn't want to wake you Cause this troubled look I got Might make you change your mind There's no need for conversation There's no reason to forsake you I was looking for the answers But there's nothing here to find I think that you should know by now You've done the damage now it can't be changed So give me one good reason One good reason to stay Just give me one good reason to stay
(B. Adams — J. Vallance)
Now you took your love from me When I needed it most I wanted you so desperately Baby don't look now cause I'm coming around Baby don't look now cause I'm coming around You planned it all so carefully You just fade into black And even in your wildest dreams You never thought I'd be back So you thought you'd seen the last of me Now you better think twice Cause you can't fool me that easily Baby don't look now cause I'm coming around Baby don't look now cause I'm coming around
(B. Adams — J. Vallance)
All those nights I've spent alone Uninspired and too tired wasted There's lots of times I'd have telephoned I couldn't find the words to say I'm coming home - I'm coming home I'll make it short, I'll make it sweet Make it up to you, I mean it I'm not the same guy I used to be Can I do to make you believe it Coming home, I'm coming home Only seems like yesterday You and I were saying goodbye Now I'm just a few miles away Gonna see you tonight I've been alone and I lived the pain I reached for you in desperation I was wrong, I'll take the blame I need you back now, I just can't wait I'm coming home yeah, I'm coming home Won't you wait… I'm coming home
(B. Adams — J. Vallance)
Waiting here for the working day to end Five o'clock and those walls just move in closer You get home so down and worn out It's understood Ya, it fits ya good, oh fits ya good Ya, it fits ya good Was a time you were bringing me down But I know it's just the way you live your life But you don't know like I know, baby I did all that I could Now it fits ya good, oh fits ya good Ya, it fits ya good
(B. Adams — L. Mitchell)
I can't complain about the way we've tried So maybe it's the time to say good-bye Not gonna look around I'm just gonna look away Don't put the reasons back in my head You said you loved me now you left me for dead Oh, I just can't stand it this way Oh oh jealousy coming over me It's that jealousy breaking my heart Oh oh jealousy taking control of me Now you just gotta know — that I can't let go And it's time that you knew — I can't stop loving you You say I'm a sentimental fool But all I try to do is go with you Not gonna look around I'm just gonna look away It's been a battle since you broke my heart I tell you now that it's been coming down hard Oh I just can't stand another day Oh oh jealousy coming over me It's that jealousy breaking my heart Jealousy, I'm so jealous
(B. Adams — J. Vallance)
Who you gonna run to Now your ass is on the line Who you think you're fooling We ain't got the time Don't try to tell me Who was wrong or right We don't see eye to eye There's no point in trying to change it at all Tonight, tonight let's leave it alone Leave it alone tonight We can't change it at all Forget the things I told you Let's just sleep on it for now It's your misunderstanding I don't want to hear you out Two wrongs baby, they don't make a right It's hardly worth the heartache So let's leave it alone, leave it alone Tonight, tonight let's leave it alone Leave it alone tonight We can't change it at all
(B. Adams — J. Vallance)
I think I told you maybe once or twice before He'll only hold you down and leave you wanting more But you refused to listen babe so this is where you'll stay If you weren't so bloody juvenile you be somewhere today If you want it — you got it If you want it — you got it If you want it — you got it If you want it — you got it now You think you're on the brink but I got news for you I think it's time to start believin' your reviews You stood me up and shot me down so many times before But droppin' names and playin' games won't get you Through my door
(B. Adams — J. Vallance)
Well you take it all for granted So it should come as no surprise That your big balloon is gonna burst Right before your eyes Well you always call your mama Just for sympathy Well I tried to show you years ago So don't come cryin' to me And it's your last chance, the night is over Last chance for love Well you can blame it on the bossa nova But can't blame me when I'm gone Well you call me up for favours You say that it's my turn Well I think I'll stand on Mulholland Drive And watch you bridges burn Well I saw your guardian angel He said I can't refuse Well I'd take the chance But it's hard to dance In size 8 concrete shoes
(B. Adams)
Everything's been said a hundred times Everything's been said a hundred times And I know if I know you It takes one more time No one holds the night the way you do No one holds the night the way you do And I know if I know you It takes one more night No one makes it right like you do — like you do No one makes it right like you do — like you do 'Cause no one makes it right like you I guess you're moving out or so you say I guess you're moving out or so you say Well I know — if I know you I got no more to say No one makes it right like you do — like you do No one makes it right like you do — like you do 'Cause no one makes it right like you I said it once, I say it always
