"If You Were A Woman (And I Was A Man)"

   
(Desmond Child)

How's it feel to be a woman
How's it feel to be a man
Are we really that different
Tell me where you stand
I look at you, you look away
Why do you say we're night and day
I'd like to try another way
Oh baby for just one day

If you were a woman and I was a man
Would it be so hard to understand
That a heart's a heart and we do what we can
If you were a woman and I was a man
If you were a woman and I was a man

How's it feel to be the hunter
How's it feel to be the prey
Is there really a reason
For this game we play
I look at you, you look away
Why do you say we're night and day
I'd like to try another day
Oh darling, just one day

If you were a woman and I was a man
Would it be so hard to understand
That a heart's a heart and we do what we can
If you were a woman and I was a man
If you were a woman and I was a man

Hey, we're just two people trying to love
Oh but how, how can we love
With this wall between us, holding us back

If you were a woman and I was a man
Would it be so hard to understand
That a hearts a heart and we do what we can
If you were a woman and I was a man
If you were a woman and I was a man

"Loving You Is A Dirty Job But Somebody's Gotta Do It"
(feat. Todd Rundgren)

   
(Jim Steinman)

[Girl:]
When the sky is falling and you're looking round for somewhere to hide
Did you ever call out to someone
Did you ever call out to me, I've never been gone-
I've been right here by your side
There ain't nothin' but clouds
There ain't nothin' but clouds in your eyes

Why don't you believe it when you finally found the truth
You've been drinking poison water from the fountain of youth
Why don't you stop tearing up everyone you need the most
You're so busy trying to get even
You never even try to get close

I can't explain it away
It doesn't make any sense
To know what it's like
I guess you gotta go through it
It doesn't matter baby
Loving you's a dirty job
But somebody's gotta do it

[Boy:]
There were times when we'd never fake it
There were times when we'd always make it
There were times when we'd take it to the limit
And we'd never, never, ever leave each other alone
We were flesh and blood and bone
There were times we had it all
There were times we had it all

[Both:]
There were times when we took our chances
There were times we were damn good dancers
There were times when we heard all the answers
In the beating of the drummer and the riches of the rock and the roll
I can see right through your soul
There were times we had it all
There were times we had it all

[Boy:]
If your fears could only be forgotten
We could pull all of the barriers down
Would you follow your dreams' desire
Would you follow your secret dreams and forbidden fire
Let's just peel out of this town

[Both:]
It's been nothing but dreams
It's been nothing but dreams until now

[Boy:]
You're never gonna see it

[Both:]
You got your head stuck in the sand

[Boy:]
It's the land of the free and easy Street

[Girl:]
It's the home of the damned

[Boy:]
You're never gonna see it

[Both:]
You better open up your eyes

[Girl:]
You're the only one who's left-

[Both:]
Who's gonna believe all your lies

[Boy:]
I can't explain it away
It doesn't make any sense

[Both:]
To know what it's like
I guess you gotta go through it
It doesn't matter baby

[Girl:]
Loving you's a dirty job
But somebody's gotta do it

[Boy:]
There were times when our bodies glistened
There were times that we can't stop missing
There were times that we'd lay in bed and listen

[Both:]
To the pounding, pounding [Chorus] of our desperate hearts
Nothing could have torn us apart
There were times we had it all
There were times we had it all

[Girl:]
There were times when we fought like tigers
There were times we were damn good liars

[Boy:]
There were times we extinguished every fire

[Both:]
That was burning, burning, burning up each other alive
From the heavens on down to the dives
There were times we lost it all we lost it all
There were times we lost it all we lost it all

There were times when we fought like tigers
There were times we were damn good liars

There were times when our bodies glistened
There were times that we can't stop missing
There were times that we'd lay in bed and listen
To the pounding, pounding [Chorus] of our desperate hearts
Nothing could have torn us apart
There were times we had it all
There were times we had it all

"No Way To Treat A Lady"

   
(Bryan Adams & Jim Vallance)

You can please me
You can sweet talk and lead me on
But believe me
Won't be long till I'm catching on
Now you left me here with nothing
And you put my love on hold
Well there must be something behind those eyes
Because I believe every lie you told

[Chorus:]
That ain't no way to treat a lady
That ain't no way to treat a woman in love
That ain't no way to treat a lady
I could of sworn that you'd had enough

So you leave me
Well I'm lonely and in despair,
It intrigues me
How you don't really seem to care
Well I ain't here for nothing
And my love doesn't come that cheap
I will hold you to all your promises
If I could find one you meant to keen

That ain't no way to treat a lady
That ain't no way to treat a woman in love
That ain't no way to treat a lady
That ain't no way, no way to treat a woman in love

You can tease me
You can sweet talk and lead me on
But believe me
Won't be long till I'm catching on
For I ain't here for nothing
And my love doesn't come that cheap
And I will hold you to all your promises
If I could find one you meant to keep

[Chorus]

"Band Of Gold"

   
(R. Dunbar & E. Wayne)

Now that you've gone
All that's left is a band of gold
All that's left of the dreams I hold
Is a band of gold
And the memories
Of what love could be
If you were
Still here with me

You took me from the shelter of a mother I had never known
The love of any other
We kissed after taking vows
But that night on our honeymoon
We stayed in separate rooms

I waited in the darkness of my lonely room
Filled with sadness, filled with gloom
Hoping soon
That you'd walk back through that door
And love me
Liked you tried before

Since you've been gone
All that's left is a band of gold
All that's left of the dreams I hold
Is a band of gold
And the dream of what love could be
If you were still here with me

Since you've been gone
All that's left is a band of gold
All that's left of the dreams I hold
Is a band of gold

"Rebel Without A Clue"

   
(Jim Steinman)

You're a tough tail-gunner in a pitch black Chevy
Cruising in the moonlight
Ooh your aim is steady
Your eyes are hungry and your hands are ready
You shot me where you wanted
You put me in a daze

No matter where you're going, you'll always be a stranger
Getting into trouble, getting off on danger
Riding out of town like a cool lone ranger
When there's nothing to lose, you gotta call your own plays
Did anybody say something incredibly stupid
Like there isn't any paradise
But I remember the songs and I remember the story
I remember the thrills and I remember the glory

So hold me - hold me in your arms
Deliver me from growing old
Hold me - hold me in your arms
Shelter me from going cold
I'm a shot in the dark without you
A rebel without a clue

Rebel without a clue
I don't know what to say and I don't know what to do
Standing on the corner in my boots and my leather
A little over the edge, a little under the weather
Just a rebel without a clue
I'm tired and lonely and crying for you
I know just when to sulk and I know just how to pose
Dirty Harry to Madonna
I've been learning all the roles

So hold me baby, hold me a little longer
Need me baby just a little stronger tonight
Move it darling move a little quicker
Prove it darling blood is really thicker tonight
Drive on darling drive a little farther
Dream on darling dream a little harder tonight
Teach me baby teach me how to love you
Without me you're just another rebel without a clue

It's been a long hot Summer and it's just the beginning
So keep our motor running and your tires spinning
So many places that I've wanted to be in
Take me where you're going - away beyond above -
We'll see a little action, relieve a little tension
Stuff I'd like to try that I shouldn't even mention
I've gone so far that - I'm way beyond redemption
There's nothing to it really - I think they call it love

Did anybody say something incredibly stupid
Like there isn't any paradise
But I remember the songs and I remember the story
I remember the thrills and I remember the glory

So hold me - hold me in your arms
Deliver me from growing old
Hold me - hold me in your arms
Shelter me from going cold
I'm a shot in the dark without you
A rebel without a clue

Rebel without a clue
Don't know what to say and I don't know what to do
Standing on the corner in my boots and my leather
A little over the edge, a little under the weather
Just a rebel without a clue
I'm tired and lonely and crying for you
I know just when to sulk and I know just how to pose
Dirty Harry to Madonna
I've been learning all the roles

So hold me baby, hold me a little longer
Need me baby just a little stronger tonight
Move it darling move a little quicker
Prove it darling blood is really thicker tonight
Drive on darling drive a little farther
Dream on darling dream a little harder tonight
Teach me baby teach me how to love you
Without me you're just another rebel without a clue

So hold me baby, hold me a little longer
Need me baby just a little stronger tonight
Move it darling move a little quicker
Prove it darling blood is really thicker tonight
Drive on darling drive a little farther
Dream on darling dream a little harder tonight
Teach me baby teach me how to love you
Without me you're just another rebel without a clue

"Lovers Again"

   
(Desmond Child)

I got pictures of you in funny poses
Letters from you with pressed yellow roses
I've got souvenirs of fun times together
And I'll cherish those years and you can bet I'm forever

I know we'll be lovers again, darling
I know we'll be lovers again
It's a matter of time
Till you see that I'm
The one in the end, I was your friend
Lovers again

I got pictures of you with stolen kisses
We looked so young and so full of promise
And we had those dreams
But they're not forgotten
Cause I'll build that house with the yellow rose garden

I know we'll be lovers again, darling
I know we'll be lovers again
It's a matter of time
Till you see that I'm
The one in the end, I was your friend
Lovers again

There's a picture of you in yesterday's paper
With that smile I knew and the new name you've taken
And I'll live each day without being bitter
Cause we weren't that way
And I know it's not over

I know we'll be lovers again, darling
I know we'll be lovers again
It's a matter of time
Till you see that I'm
The one waiting there and in the end
We'll be lovers again

"Before This Night Is Through"

   
(Cantarelli & A. Anderson)

I been crazy for you, so long
How could something so right turn out so wrong
Words, never mean what they say
Words just get in the way

Before this night is through
Gonna make you see
How l been blind to you
You been blind to me
Before this night is through were gonna get to the truth

Before this night is through
Gonna heal the pain
Before this night is through
You'll be back again
No matter what we do I know we'll be all right
Before this night is through

Hearts broken in pieces no time to mend
Without loving they fall apart in the end
Fools, never admit they're wrong
They live their lives alone

Before this night is through
Girl we're gonna see how I belong to you
You belong to me
Before this night is through were gonna get to the truth
Before this night is through
We'll get past the pain
Before this night is through
You'll be back again
No matter what we do I know we'll be right
Before this night is through

Come inside close the door come to me now
We'll find our way we know how
Let the past be the past let it all fall away
Baby I know we told lies and to lie is a sin
We'll get to the truth we will simply begin

Before this night is through were gonna get to the truth

Before this night is through
We'll get past the pain
Before this night is through
You'll come back again
No matter what we do I know we'll be all right
Before this night, before this night is through

"Under Suspicion"

   
(B. Tyler, P. Hopkins & P. Oxendale)

I put my trust in you 'cos I'm not the suspicious kind
But it seems to me that there's someone on your mind
And maybe I'm wrong and maybe there's some mistake
But I won't take any chances, I'm watching every move you make
I never felt so scared and helpless before
I wish I could believe in you but I just gotta be sure

You're under suspicion all of the time
You're under suspicion all of the time

When we talk I can see you cant look me straight in the eye
What's all the secrecy, you got me wondering why
Is it someone you met that could make you regret your decision
How could you forget all our plans and all our ambitions
Don't try to pull the wool right over my eyes
You think you're pretty smart but I can see right through your disguise

You're under suspicion all of the time
You're under suspicion all of the time

You're under suspicion all of the time
You're under suspicion all of the time
You're under suspicion all of the time
You're under suspicion

You're under suspicion all of the time
You're under suspicion all of the time

"Holding Out For A Hero"

   
(Jim Steinman & Dean Pitchford)

Where have all the good men gone
And where are all the gods?
Where's the street-wise Hercules
To fight the rising odds?
Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
Late at night toss and turn and dream of what I need

[Chorus:]
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night
He's gotta be strong
And he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light
He's gotta be sure
And it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life

Somewhere after midnight
In my wildest fantasy
Somewhere just beyond my reach
There's someone reaching back for me
Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat
It's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet

[Chorus]

Up where the mountains meet the heavens above
Out where the lightning splits the sea
I would swear that there's someone somewhere
Watching me

Through the wind and the chill and the rain
And the storm and the flood
I can feel his approach
Like the fire in my blood

[Chorus]

"Notes From America"

   
(Desmond Child & Robbie Seidman)

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...
