Looking for love Lyrics

(Coverdale/Sykes)

I'm tired of waiting
An' closing my eyes
I'm asking myself
Why is it all my horizons
Are so far away

I look in the mirror
Don't like what I see
In my reflection
A stranger is staring at me
Looking for love

The love of a woman
The needs of a man
I try so hard to belive
But I don't understand
The search goes on

But over the mountains
Across the sea
I know love is waiting
I hear it calling to me
Calling my name

I'm looking for love all around me
Looking for love to surround me
The love that I need
To rescue the state of my heart

Alone again, It's always the same
I've just been marking my time
Since the day I was born
With no one to blame

The candle is burning
It's way down low
I just need someone
To show me the way to go
Which way to go.

I'm looking for love all around me
Looking for love to surround me
The love that I need
To rescue the state of my heart

I'm looking for love
An' finding only heartache
Looking for love
An' finding only heartache
I'm looking for love to rely on
Looking for love, a shoulder to cry on
I'm looking for love
To rescue the state of my heart...

Love ain't no stranger Lyrics

(Coverdale/Galley)

Who knows where the cold wind blows,
I ask my friends, but, nobody knows
Who am I to believe in love,
Oh, love ain't no stranger

I looked around an' what did I see
Broken hearted people staring at me,
All searching 'cos they still believe,
Oh, love ain't no stranger

I was alone an' I needed love
So much I sacrificed all I was dreaming of,
I heard no warning, but, a heart can tell
I'd feel the emptiness of love I know so well

Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger to love, no, no, no

Can't hold the passion of a soul in need,
I look for mercy when my heart begins to bleed
I know good loving an' I'm a friend of pain,
But, when I read between the lines it's all the same

Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger to love

So who knows where the cold wind blows,
I ask my friends, but, nobody knows
Who am I to believe in love,
Lord, have mercy,
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger

I was alone an' I needed love
So much I sacrificed all I was dreaming of,
Can't hold the passion of a soul in need,
I look for mercy when my heart begins to bleed

Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger to love

Love ain't no stranger,
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger...

Love an' affection Lyrics

(Coverdale/Moody)

Well, I love the way you walk
With your skin tight stride,
You got my eyes wide open
An' my loose tongue tied
A French kiss mouth
An' a smile so bad,
You're the finest woman
That I ever had
So it's alright,
Do anything you wanna do

Nobody had to tell you
How to make a man's heart bleed,
Your mama always knew
You was born to succeed
I can see the honey juice
Dripping off your lips,
Girl, you got the Midas Touch
It's in your fingertips
But it's alright,
Do anything you wanna do

'Cos after midnight, I'll be alright
Riding on Cupid's train,
You give me loving, like I've never had before,
I'm back in the saddle again

So give me love an' affection,
Love an' affection
A little love an' affection
Sure 'nuff goes a long, long way

You put your arms around me
Like a circle 'round the sun,
Your eyes turn on the hypnotising game
You play for fun
I'm caught in your spell
Just like the spider an' the fly,
An' I can't break away from you
No matter how I try
But, it's alright,
Do anything you wanna do

'Cos after midnight, I'll be alright
Riding on Cupid's train,
You give me loving, like I've never had before,
I'm back in the saddle again

So give me love an' affection,
Love an' affection
A little love an' affection
Sure 'nuff goes a long, long way

'Cos after midnight, I'll be alright
Riding on Cupid's train,
You give me loving, like I've never had before,
I'm back in the saddle again

So give me love an' affection,
Love an' affection
A little love an' affection
Sure 'nuff goes a long, long way

Love an' affection
A little love an' affection
Baby, baby, love an' affection
Sure 'nuff goes a long, long way

Love, love, love
Love, love, love
I need love an' affection,
Sure 'nuff goes a long, long way...

Love man Lyrics

(Coverdale)

I've spent close on sixteen years
Watching your pretty flower grow
Little girl, little girl, now tell me
Everything you know
About the oceans and the skies,
The mountains and the trees,
And then I'm tell you about
The birds and the honey bees

'Cos I'm a love man, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'm a love man
I'm a hootchie cootchie man
And I'm doing all I can
I just love to tease,
I would do anything to please you, baby

Sweet little angel, give me your hand,
Feel for my heartbeat, baby,
Then you'll understand
About the bees and the honey,
The bluebirds in the trees,
And you'd know, just to get close to you
I would get down on my knees

I am a love man, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I am a love man That's what I am
I'm a hootchie cootchie man
And I'm doing all I can
I could love to squeeze,
I would do anything to please you, baby

Baby, I am a love man, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I am a love man That's what I am
I'm a hootchie cootchie man,
Doing all I can
I just love to tease,
I would get down on my knees

So come a little closer,
Let me whisper in your ear
How the good Lord in His Wisdom
Made you so, and put you here

He played a little game
Called The Apple and the Snake,
When the lady took her first sweet bite
The Snake made no mistake

He was a love man, yeah, yeah, yeah,
And I am a love man
I'm a hootchie cootchie man
And I'm doing all I can,
'Cos a love man needs his loving everyday
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I am a love man

Love To Keep You Warm Lyrics

If you want love,
You gotta be cool
And if you deny it,
Then baby you're a fool.
I'm telling you now,
Don't you hide it away.
Because you need to keep you warm both night and day.

I could come home
Late at night
And after some loving,
Baby, it would be alright.
I've given up trying
Lying my way.
Because you need love to keep you warm both night and day,
You gotta have love to keep you warm both night and day.

I said baby, if you need my love
You better come home with me.
Maybe if you want my love,
You know you got it easily.
But, when the sun goes down
And the night is cold,
You know I won't be far away.
Because you need love to keep you warm both night and day,
You gotta have love to keep you warm both night and day.

You gotta have love.

(Solo)

If you want schooling baby
I'll be around,
I'm ready for fooling
But, don't hang around.
And every morning I know I will say.
Because you need love to keep you warm both night and day,
You gotta have love to keep you warm both night and day.

I said baby, if you need my love
You better come home with me.
Maybe if you want my love,
You know you got it easily.
But, when the sun goes down
And the night is cold,
You know I won't be far away.
Because you need love to keep you warm both night and day,
You gotta have love to keep you warm both night and day,
You gotta have love to keep you warm both night and day,
I said you need love to keep you warm both night and day.

Lovehunter Lyrics

(Coverdale/Moody/Marsden)

I need a woman to treat me good
And give me everything a good woman should
Everyday and every night
She'd be waiting on her brown-eyed boy
To come and treat her right

I'm a love hunter baby
Sneaking up on you,
I'm a love hunter baby
Sneaking up on you
I'm gonna give you all my loving
And use my tail on you

In my time I've been a back door man,
I've taken everything I could
But, I've given all I can
I don't want no woman
To weep or moan,
I'm looking for a sweet heartbreaker
And I'm never gonna leave her alone

I'm a love hunter baby
Sneaking up on you,
I'm a love hunter baby
What you gonna do?
I'm gonna give you all my loving
And use my tail on you

I'm a love hunter baby
Sneaking up on you,
I'm a love hunter baby
What you gonna do?
I'm gonna give you all my loving
And use my tail on you

'Cos I'm a love hunter baby,
I'm a love hunter baby...

I'm a love hunter baby
Sneaking up on you

I'm sneaking up on you!

Mean business Lyrics

(Coverdale/Moody/Marsden/Murray/Dowle)

You're taking a walk on the wild side
If you're gonna take a chance with me,
I'm gonna make you take a look on the inside
And you might not like what you see
So don't you knock on my door
If you don't want an answer
Or gimme a beat
If you don't want a dancer

I've got my love gun loaded,
I've got you in my sight,
I never take no for an answer,
So you'd better say yes tonight
I told you the score
Right from the start,
You'll never get to heaven
If you break my heart

So if you don't mean business
Knock on someone else's door,
'Cos it's a mean mean business
Staying alive if you fool with me

You say you want my money,
I say you've got no sense,
If you just want to bleed me dry
Stay on your side of the fence
No mercy you can see
'Cos seven to eleven made a fool out of me

So if you don't mean business
Knock on someone else's door,
'Cos it's a mean mean business
Staying alive if you fool with me

You're taking a walk on the wild side
If you're gonna take a chance with me,
I'm gonna make you take a look on the inside
And you might not like what you see
So don't you knock on my door
If you don't want an answer
Or gimme a beat
If you don't want a dancer

So if you don't mean business
Knock on someone else's door,
'Cos it's a mean mean business
Staying alive if you fool with me...

Medicine man Lyrics

(Coverdale)

You never leave her alone,
I can see you never learn
When you're playing with fire,
You get your fingers burned
There ain't no use in crying,
Baby don't delay,
You can call your doctor,
I'll be there right away

I'm the medicine man,
Your doctor of love
Medicine man,
Doctor of love

When there's a feeling inside,
That just can't be denied,
I will be your medicine man

Now don't you ever worry,
If you feel the fever rise,
You'll never fool nobody,
When there's fire in your eyes
There ain't no use denying,
When you need it deep inside
You've got your witch doctor
To keep you satisfied

I'm the medicine man,
Your doctor of love
Medicine man,
Doctor of love

When there's a feeling inside,
That just can't be denied,
I will be your medicine man.

You never leave her alone,
I can see you never learn
When you're playing with fire,
You get your fingers burned
There ain't no use in crying,
Baby don't delay,
You can call your doctor,
I'll be there right away

I'm the medicine man,
Your doctor of love
Medicine man,
Doctor of love

When there's a feeling inside,
That just can't be denied,
I will be your medicine man
Your doctor of love
I'm medicine man,
Doctor of love...

Might just take your life Lyrics

(Blackmore/Coverdale/Lord/Paice)

I got more than I asked for,
there ain't nothin' I need.
I took all till I had more,
I'm always takin' the lead

Old man shakin' dice down on the street,
try'n to make a livin' somehow
but I'm really sure about gettin' things sorted out
and I'm gettin' ready right now

You can't hold me,
I have told you
Might just take your life,
might just take your life

I've been called by many names
and all of them are bad
I can take it all the same,
it's all I've ever had

I've got somethin' that you can't get
but one thing you can see
gettin' there ain't easy
but it sure was hard for me

You can't hold me,
I have told you
Might just take your life,
might just take your life

Every time I take a look
there's someone close behind
They never used to make a pass,
the things that crossed their minds

Now they tell me that it's all right
and they want to be my friend
They're ridin' on my back
When is it goin' to end?

You can't hold me,
I have told you
Might just take your life,
might just take your life,
might just take your life

Got more than I asked for,
got more than I need
Got more than I asked for,
got more than I need
Got more than I asked for,
got more than I need

Money to burn Lyrics

(Coverdale/Hardin/Fenwick)

Well the world just keeps on turning
And people keep on learning
It's crazy to be earning
All the money that you're burning

But if you fool yourself
An' think you're really strong
Someone gonna see you
Show you that you're wrong..

Cos you can't take it with you
If you got money to burn
Someone gonna get you
If you've got money to burn...

Riding in your Roller
Oh, think you're pretty cool
But the big man's got your number
And he's just playing you for a fool

Can't take it with you
Your money to burn
I'm gonna give you
For your money to burn

Don't wanna be learn
when i'm going down
when i'm getting .. for it
I ain't hanging 'round
For ain't no dollar
ain't gonna turn
but I don't want money,
ain't want no money

Money to Burn
Money to Burn

Money, Money...
