Cry
04:05
|
|||
When we got close under the moonlight I could see the tears in your eyes
Cry, go ahead and cry
I don't need to know the reason why Go ahead and cry
We're moving into the deep end
The water's rising, that you can't deny
Why do some people still try?
I don't need to know the reason why
Go ahead and cry
Some people can't stand when you look them in the eye
A window to the soul below that so many try to hide
If you feel like you're on that wheel with a hurt deep down inside You don't need to take that ride
Go ahead and cry
It's hard enough just to stay clear
With all the fighting and darkness on the rise
And lies, poisoning my mind
I don't need another reason why
Go ahead and cry
Some people can't stand to see a grown man cry
What if it's a tear of joy or something got in my eye?
I don't feel like I need to explain
And God knows I won't try
You don't need to know why
Sometimes people cry

Red Light Shakedown
03:30
|
|||
New world, old world, the center of town
Or the east side, west side take down, break down
Get me back home and lay me down
Just got to make it to the other side of the canal
New Pearl, old girl, what have you found
With your Red Light Shakedown, Shakedown?
Get a leg up to put a man down, send the boys running
they can't hurt you now!
Take my coat, shake my hand but never tell a soul they won't understand
Working girls, you look like sin, open your door and let me in, let me in!
New Pearl, old girl, how did you choose
them busted shoes and black and Blues?
Had to get a leg up to put a man down
send the boys running, they can't touch you now!
Take my coat, shake my hand but never tell a soul they won't understand
Working girls, you look like sin, open your door and let me in, let me in!

Come Home
03:31
|

Come home, come home, come home Do not lay down alone
You're on my mind, you're out of sight Baby, you light up my life
You've got a man who can see you For The Shining Beauty you are You're all I see when I close my eyes In my sky you're the brightest star Come home, come home, come home Do not lay down alone
You're on my mind, you're out of sight Baby, you light up my life
That old wind tried to blow you
Too far out to see
He may bend you but he will never know you And you'll come swimming back to me Come home, come home, come home
Do not lay down alone
You're on my mind, you're out of sight Baby, you light up my life
Home, home, home
Home, home, home...
You know how much I need you and I would never mistreat you, come home

Be Kind
04:18
|
|||
Be strong for yourself and everyone else, be strong
Come on, come on!
Be there for each other, take care of each other and be kind
Come on, come on!
Reach out your hand and hold the hand that's reaching out
You know what I'm talking about
Pray for each other, play with each other and be kind
What you say about each other is only a reflection of your mind
Come on, come on!
Pray for each other, play with each other and be kind
what you say about each other is really just a mirror of your mind
Come on, you've got to be strong!
Pay for each other, find a way to help each other to survive
Make way for each other and stay with each other and get high
And remember what you say about each other is really just a mirror of your mind
Pray for each other, play with each other and be kind
Pray for each other, play with each other and be kind...

Mile High Soul
03:12
|
|||
I've got a soul I've got a mile high soul
It takes me away from here when I can't stand feeling so low
I've got to roll I've got to get up and go
Show me the way that's clear don't leave me all alone
We'll take it slow or take it out of control
Come run away with me I need somebody to hold
I've got to know if you've got a soul
Come on put it right next to me when I get that feeling below
I lost my confidence in what we call Common Sense
I put my faith in the power of Love
Thats how it has to be for people like you and me
Who get what we need from up above
I've got a soul I've got a mile high soul
It takes me away from here when I can't stand feeling so low
I've got a soul I've got a soul I've got a soul I've got a mile high soul
I've got a soul I've got a soul I've got a soul I've got a mile high soul

Compliments and Woo
03:27
|
|||
Hey baby listen, what you've been missing
I want to let you know
It's my mission to take what you're wishing for and make a rattle shake show Make them feel it when you walk into the room
Compliments and woo stick to you like glue
Sharpen your vision, your comprehension makes you as heavy as gold
And when I'm missing your hug and kissing
You give me something more bold
Make them feel it when you walk into the room
Compliments and woo stick to you like glue
Demolition the competition with your heavyweight mood
Dress the fashion but unfasten ties put on you
Make them feel it when you walk into the room
Compliments and woo stick to you like glue
Compliments and woo stick to you like glue
Compliments and woo stick to you like glue
They can feel it when you walk into the room
Compliments and woo stick to you like glue
They can feel it when you walk into the room
Compliments and woo stick to you like glue...

Serenade
04:24
|
|||
When I serenade you in my tongue tied way
Forget what you know and believe what I say
Baby, I give you my heart, you've got me, whatever you need
Take me forever, do with me whatever you please
Don't cry when I bleed, I've got scars but you gave them to me
Just try to believe, don't stay mad forever, come find me let my love set you free Baby, I give you my heart, you've got me, whatever you need
Take me forever, do with me whatever you please
I tried to put you away
It’s not pride, maybe just jealousy
At a time when trust is what we need
Baby, I’d give you my heart, if only you'd take it from me
Make me surrender, take from me whatever you need

Hard To See
03:42
|
|||
I ain't hard to see, I ain't hard to see
But you walk around the corner and run right over me How can it be, how can it be
None of you fine ladies ever look at me?
It's plain to see I'm in misery
Go out and have a good time, just let me be
Here you come again with a soft attack
You won't hold my hand 'cause I can't hold you back How can it be, how can it be
That none of you fine ladies ever look at me?
It's plain to see I'm in misery
Go out and have a good time, just let me be
Here we go again, this ain't where it's at
You won't hold my hand, I can't hold you back
Say you understand, let's get back on track
Come on, hold my hand, I would never hold you back!

Stay The Night
03:45
|
|||
I would never make it alone, can I put my arm around you
Keep you safe and warm, all through the night?
You should stay the night, where you got to run to always in the middle of the night? It just ain't right
I would never pick up the phone without saying hello, I love you
I've been away too long, but I'm coming home
You should stay the night, where you got to run to always in the middle of the night? It just ain't right
I would never leave you alone, I'm so glad I found you
Safe and warm, all through the night
You should stay the night, who you gonna run to always in the middle of the night? It just ain't right

Stay Up
03:45
|
|||
Rest your head but don't go to bed Don't you close your eyes
Raise the bets on your regrets You're running out of time
Days go by and fools measure time
As they fade to black
Those fools are gone, farewell, so long And they ain't coming back
All the little things that make up your life, you lose them all in time I don't want to think about saying goodbye
Don't go to sleep, stay up with me tonight
We collide, in fear, divide
Always looking back
We pay our dues with self-abuse
But it never pays us back
And all the little things that make up your mind
You change it all the time
I don't want to lose the time that we have
Don't go to sleep, stay up with me tonight
All the little things that make up your life you lose them all in time I don't want to think about saying goodbye
Don't go to sleep, stay up with me tonight

Bitter Root
02:47
|
|||
Your bulletproof shirt don't work
Your rabid tooth is coming loose
Stick out your tongue, I'll bite through to the bitter root Fill your mouth with an awful truth
For simple things I've got no use
I know you want to change
It's no use, hearts stay the same and love's a noose But it's a drag when it cuts you loose
Fills your head with the bitter blues
Baby please, no more bad news
Don't fill my head with your bitter blues
Baby please, no more bad news

Whiskey Above The Fridge
03:39
|
|||
There must be a sign on my door that says “thank you, come back again” Someone said she won't stay if you don't invite her in
Something sweet on the air down the stair said you came back again
Ah, the hell with despair, I don't care, let the fighting begin
There's a line on the table, whiskey above the fridge
I’ve always known you had something that I can't resist
I might be crazy, you might be my best friend
There must be a sign on my door that says “thank you, come back again” There's a line on the table, whiskey above the fridge
I guess it's true what they say, you get what you give
I must be crazy, you might be my best friend
There must be a sign on my door that says “thank you, come back again”
There must be a sign on my door that says “thank you, come back again”
