"Should've Known Better"

   
Another sleepless night I can't explain
Somebody said they heard me call your name
The radio won't let you leave my mind
I know it's over but I don't know why

[Chorus:]
Should've known better
Than to fall in love with you
Now love is just a faded memory
Should've known better
Now I'm a prisoner to this pain
And my heart still aches for you

There was no risk that I wouldn't take
And not a promise that I didn't make
All I asked was that you just hold on
And now I'm wondering what I did wrong

[Chorus]

I gave you all of my body and soul
Never believing we might lose control
I took my hands off the wheel

I can't remember if the lies were true
It's been a million years since I touched you
I thought time might help me win this game
But being away from you is slowly driving me insane

[Chorus]

"Don't Mean Nothin'"

   
Welcome to the big time.
You're bound to be a star
And even if you don't go all the way,
I know that you'll go far
This race is for rats, it can turn you upside down
Ain't no one you can count on in this sleazy little town, oh no

Lots of promises in the dark
But don't you open your heart

[Chorus:]
Cause it don't mean nothin'
The words that they say
Don't mean nothin'
These games that people play
No, it don't mean nothin'
No victim, no crime
It don't mean nothin'
Till you sign it on the dotted line

The director smiles as you walk in the door
He says, I love your work, babe but
You're just not what we're looking for
It's never what but who it is you know
So easy to get stuck in all that california snow

Take a good look around and you'll find
People tryin' to mess with your mind

[Chorus]

Hollywood can be so lonely
Make you the winner of a losing fight
But the party is never over
Cause stars are always shining
Doesn't matter if it's day or night

The producer says, let me change a line or two
And a little bit of something can look awfully good to you
And you want to scream, but you gotta keep it all inside
When you're trying to make a living,
There ain't no such thing as pride, no

Lots of promises in the dark
But don't you open your heart

[Chorus]

It don't mean nothing at all...

"Endless Summer Nights"

   
Summer came and left without a warning
All at once I looked and you were gone
And now you're looking back at me
Searching for a way that we can be like we were before

Now I'm back to what I knew before you
Somehow the city doesn't look the same
I'd give my life for one more night
Of having you here to hold me tight; oh, please
Take me there again
Oh, oh

[Chorus:]
And I remember how you loved me
Time was all we had until the day we said goodbye
I remember every moment of those endless summer nights

I still recall the walks along the beaches
And the way your hair would glisten in the sun
Rising in the afternoon
Making love to you under the moon, oh

Do you remember all the nights we spent in silence
Every single breath you took was mine
We can have it all again
Say that you'll be with me when the sun brings your heart to mine
Oh, oh

[Chorus]

There's only so much I can say
So please don't run away from what we have together
It's only you and me tonight
So let's stay lost in flight
Oh, won't you please surrender

[Chorus]

"Lonely Heart"

   
Heartbeat pounding so hard it keeps
Me wide awake at night
I wait alone in the dark for you to make the moment right

[Chorus:]
If I could only show you all that might be lost
Then you would never wonder what the secret was
And this is what i'd
Tell you
The lonely heart you see tonight

Will not give up without a fight
And I'm never gonna let
It fade away
Oh, you can look in my eyes and see
That you're the only one
I would break down and cry if you became the lonely one

I'd rather play the
Fool and try and hold a star
Than never know if you were going to break my heart
And I can see it shining

[Chorus]

No matter what I say to make you
Understand
It's all up to you to
Take the future in your hands
So please don't keep me
Waiting

[Chorus]

"Hold On To The Nights"

   
Just when I believed I couldn't ever want for more
This ever changing world pushes me through another door
I saw you smile
And my mind could not erase the beauty of you face
Just for awhile
Won't you let me shelter you

[Chorus:]
Hold on to the nights
Hold on to the memories
I wish that I could give you something more
That I could be yours

How do we explain something that took us by surprise
Promises in vain, love that is real but in disguise
What happens now
Do we break another rule
Let our lovers play the fool
I don't know how
To stop feeling this way

[Chorus]

Well, I think that I've been true to everybody else but me
And the way I feel about you makes my heart long to be free
Everytime I look into your eyes, I'm helplessly aware
That the someone I've been searching for is right there

[Chorus]

"Have Mercy"

   
Ships are moving closer to the shoreline
And we're laughing in the face of loaded guns
I saw it on the news, we ain't got no worry
But it won't be in the paper when d day comes

Lord, have mercy
For we know not what we do
Have mercy
We've forgotten to be afraid of you

Who can solve the problems of a nation
We cure the symptoms but we're killed by the disease
I feel I've more than made my contribution
But I hope there's room in heaven for my ego and me

Lord, have mercy
For we know not what we do
Have mercy
We've forgotten to be afraid of you
Have mercy
Lend us your hand
Lord, have mercy
Give us just another chance

Too many coaches on the sideline
Too many keepers in the zoo
How will we know we've passed the deadline
Give us the strength to stand or fall
God in heaven, have mercy on us all

The ships are even closer to the shoreline
Now we're playing in a madman's house of fun
I read it in the news we ain't got no worry
But it won't be in the paper when d day comes

Lord, have mercy

"Remember Manhattan"

   
Nothing worth a damn
Can be sifted through the brain
Sense don't make the
Man
But you insist on being sane
Don't take time to
Think
Or you're done before
You start
There's no missing link

Cause it's right there
In your heart
Take a closer look,
There's an answer not a
Question
In that may-december line
You'll bite a bigger
Hook
Than the one you want to leave behind
Remember manhattan
Woody wasn't wrong

Remember manhattan
Before you say so long
How you gonna tell
If it stands the test of time
There's no wishing well

That comestrue without the dime
It's a common curse
That the grass is always greener
No matter what you have
But nothing could be worse
Than to try to reproduce the past

Remember manhattan
Woody wasn't wrong

Remember manhattan
Before you say so long
Remember manhattan
What did woody say
He said, remember manhattan
Before you walk away
Lose your common sense
'cause you may not get the chance again

"The Flame Of Love"

   
Nobody told me
Every moment without you would seem so long
I get so lonely
And the nights have been so cold since you've been gone
Did I go and make believe the way you touched me
Was it real or just a game my mind was playing, tell me

[Chorus:]
Was it the flame of love
Or was it just my imagination
Was it the flame of love
Or an act of desperation

It's amazing
How a love could feel so good then fade away
And replacing you with someone else is a game my heart won't play
Cause I know I'll never feel the heat that's in your soul
But I can't remember how I lost complete control
Tell me

[Chorus]

How could I know you'd ever go
Taking my dreams away with you
You lead me along
You did me wrong
I can't go on now, baby

"Rhythm Of Life"

   
You say you'll get over
It
But I know you better
Your feelings have been hurt a bit
And you just can't forget her
You'll want her back by tomorrow
But she won't remember your name
You better

Get lost in the rhythm
Get lost in the rhythm of life
Get lost in the rhythm
Get lost in the rhythm of life

You can't seem to step around

Life's cracks in the sidewalk
You wanna live in the fast lane
But you won't be the driver
You could be waiting a lifetime
Before you make up your mind
You gotta

Get lost in the rhythm
Get lost in the rhythm of life
Get lost in the rhythm
Get lost in the rhythm of life

You say that my soul is lost
And that you're my savior
You'll do anything at any cost
To reform my behavior
Didn't I make it this far
By making up my own mind
You gotta

Get lost in the rhythm
Get lost in the rhythm of life
Get lost in the rhythm
Get lost in the rhythm of life
