Whitney Houston – Didn’t We Almost Have It All lyrics

Remember when we held on in the rain
The nights we almost lost it once again
We can take the night into tomorrow
Living on feelings
Touching you I feel it all again

Didn’t we almost have it all
When love was all we had worth giving
The ride with you was worth the fall my friend
Loving you makes life worth living
Didn’t we almost have it all
The nights we held on till the morning
You know you’ll never love that way again
Didn’t we almost have it all

The way you used to touch me felt so fine
We kept our hearts together down the line
A moment in the soul can last forever
Comfort and keep us
Help me bring the feeling back again

Didn’t we almost have it all
When love was all we had worth giving
The ride with you was worth the fall my friend
Loving you makes life worth living
Didn’t we almost have it all
The nights we held on till the morning
You know you’ll never love that way again
Didn’t we almost have it all

Didn’t we have the best of times
When love was young and new
Couldn’t we reach inside and find
The world of me and you
We’ll never lose it again
Cause once you know what love is
You’ll never let it end

Didn’t we almost have it all
When love was all we had worth giving
The ride with you was worth the fall my friend
Loving you makes life worth living
Didn’t we almost have it all
The nights we held on till the morning
You know you’ll never love that way again
Didn’t we almost have it all

Didnt’ we almost have it all

Guns N’ Roses – Paradise City lyrics

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Take me home (Oh, won’t you please take me home)

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Take me home (Oh, won’t you please take me home)

Just an urchin livin’ under the street
I’m a hard case that’s tough to beat
I’m your charity case
So buy me somethin’ to eat
I’ll pay you at another time
Take it to the end of the line

Rags to riches
Or so they say
You gotta
Keep pushin’ for the fortune and fame
You know it’s, it’s all a gamble
When it’s just a game
You treat it like a capitol crime
Everybody’ doin’ their time

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Oh, won’t you please take me home

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Take me home

Strapped in the chair of the city’s gas chamber
Why I’m here, I can’t quite remember
The surgoen general say’s it’s hazardous to breathe
I’d have another cigarette
But I can’t see
Tell me that you’re gonna believe

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Take me home

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Oh, won’t you please take me home

So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away

Capitain America’s been torn apart
Now he’s a court jester
With a broken heart
He said turn me around
And take me back to the start
I must be losing my mind
Are you blind?!
I’ve seen it all a mllion times

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Take me home, yeah yeah

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Oh, won’t you please take me home

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Take me home, yeah yeah

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Oh, won’t you please take me home

I want to go
I want to know
Oh, won’t you please take me home

I want to see
Oh, look at me
Oh, won’t you please take me home

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Take me home

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Oh, won’t you please take me home

Take me down
Oh yeah
Beat me down
Oh, won’t you please take me home

I want to see
Oh, look at me
Oh, won’t you please take me home

I want to see
Boy, I’m gonna be mean
Oh, oh take me home

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Oh, won’t you please take me home

I want to go
I want to know
Oh, won’t you please take me home
Baby

Mel & Kim – Respectable lyrics

Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain’t ever gonna be respectable

It’s our occupation, we’re a dancing nation
We keep the pressure on every night
Explanations are complications
We don’t need to know the where or why

Taking chances, bold advances
Don’t care if you think we’re out of line
Conversation is interrogation
Get out of here, we just don’t have the time

Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain’t ever gonna be respectable
Like us, hate us, but you’ll never change us
We ain’t ever gonna be respectable

Hesitation is just frustration
Give us the music and we’re all right
On each occasion, for your information
We can look after ourselves all right

Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain’t ever gonna be respectable
Like us, hate us, but you’ll never change us
We ain’t ever gonna be respectable

Fascination is our sensation
We like to put ourselves on the line
Recreation is our destination
So don’t wait up for us tonight

Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain’t ever gonna be respectable
Like us, hate us, but you’ll never change us
We ain’t ever gonna be respectable
Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain’t ever gonna be respectable
Like us, hate us, but you’ll never change us
We ain’t ever gonna be respectable

The Bangles – Hazy Shade of Winter lyrics

Time, time, time
See what’s become of me

Time, time, time
See what’s become of me
While I looked around
For my possibilities
I was so hard to please

Look around
Leaves are brown
And the sky
Is a hazy shade of winter

Hear the salvation army band
Down by the riverside
It’s bound to be a better ride
Than what you’ve got planned
Carry a cup in your hand

Look around
Leaves are brown
And the sky
Is a hazy shade of winter

Hang on to your hopes my friend
That’s an easy thing to say
But if your hopes should pass away
Simply pretend
That you can build them again

Look around
Grass is high
Fields are ripe
It’s the springtime of my life

Seasons change with the scenery
Weaving time in a tapestry
Won’t you stop and remember me

Look around
Leaves are brown
And the sky
It’s a hazy shade of winter

Look around
Leaves are brown
There’s a patch of snow on the ground

Prince – Sign O’ The Times lyrics

Oh yeah

In France, a skinny man died of a big disease with a little name
By chance his girlfriend came across a needle and soon she did the same
At home there are 17-year-old boys and their idea of fun
Is being in a gang called The Disciples
High on crack and totin’ a machine gun

Time
Times

Hurricane Annie ripped the ceiling of a church and killed everyone inside
You turn on the telly and every other story is tellin’ you somebody died
A sister killed her baby ‘cuz she couldn’t afford to feed it
And yet we’re sending people to the moon
In September, my cousin tried reefer for the very first time
Now he’s doing horse, it’s June

Times
Times

It’s silly, no?
When a rocket ship explodes and everybody still wants to fly
But some say a man ain’t happy unless a man truly dies
Oh why?

Time
Time

Baby make a speech, Star Wars fly
Neighbors just shine it on
But if a night falls and a bomb falls
Will anybody see the dawn?

Time
Times

Is it silly, no?
When a rocket blows and, and everybody still wants to fly
Some say a man ain’t happy truly until a man truly dies
Oh why, oh why
Sign ‘o the times

Time
Time

Sign ‘o the times mess with your mind
Hurry before it’s to late
Let’s fall in love, get married, have a baby
We’ll call him Nate
If it’s a boy

Time
Times

Time
Times

John Mellencamp – Cherry Bomb lyrics

Well I lived on the outskirts of town
In an eight room farmhouse, baby
When my brothers and friends were around
There was always somethin’ doin’
Had me a couple of real nice girlfriends
Stopped by to see me every once in a while
When I think back about those days
All I can do is sit and smile

That’s when a smoke was a smoke,
And groovin’ was groovin’
And dancin’ meant everything
We were young and we were improvin’
Laughin’, laughin’ with our friends
Holdin’ hands meant somethin’, baby
Outside the club”Cherry Bomb”
Our hearts were really thumpin’
Say yeah yeah yeah
Say yeah yeah yeah

The winter days they last forever
But the weekends went by so quick
Went ridin’ around this little country town
We were goin’ nuts, girl, out in the sticks
One night, me with my big mouth
A couple guys had to put me in my place
When I see those guys these days
We just laugh and say do you remember when

That’s when a smoke was a smoke,
And groovin’ was groovin’
And dancin’ meant everything
We were young and we were improvin’
Laughin’, laughin’ with our friends
Holdin’ hands meant somethin’, baby
Outside the club”Cherry Bomb”
Our hearts were really thumpin’
Say yeah yeah yeah
Say yeah yeah yeah

Say yeah yeah yeah
Say yeah yeah yeah

Seventeen has turned thirty-five
I’m surprised that we’re still livin’
If we’ve done any wrong
I hope that we’re forgiven
Got a few kids of my own
And some days I still don’t know what to do
I hope that they’re not laughing too loud
When they hear me talkin’
Like this to you

That’s when a smoke was a smoke,
And groovin’ was groovin’
And dancin’ meant everything
We were young and we were improvin’
Laughin’, laughin’ with our friends
Holdin’ hands meant somethin’, baby
Outside the club”Cherry Bomb”
Our hearts were really thumpin’
Say yeah yeah yeah
Say yeah yeah yeah

LL Cool J – I Need Love lyrics

When I’m alone in my room sometimes I stare at the wall
and in the back of my mind I hear my conscience call
Telling me I need a girl who’s as sweet as a dove
for the first time in my life, I see I need love
There I was giggling about the games
that I had played with many hearts, and I’m not saying no names
Then the thought occured, tear drops made my eyes burn
as I said to myself look what you’ve done to her
I can feel it inside, I can’t explain how it feels
all I know is that I’ll never dish another raw deal
Playing make believe pretending that I’m true
holding in my laugh as I say that I love you
Saying amor kissing you on the ear
whispering I love you and I’ll always be here
Although I often reminsce I can’t believe that I found
a desire for true love floating around
Inside my soul because my soul is cold
one half of me deserves to be this way till I’m old
But the other half needs affection and joy
and the warmth that is created by a girl and a boy
I need love
I need love

Romance sheer delight how sweet
I gotta find me a girl to make my life complete
You can scratch my back, we’ll get cozy and huddle
I’ll lay down my jacket so you can walk over a puddle
I’ll give you a rose, pull out your chair before we eat
kiss you on the cheek and say ooh girl you’re so sweet
It’s deja vu whenever I’m with you
I could go on forever telling you what I do
But where you at you’re neither here or there
I swear I can’t find you anywhere
Damn sure you ain’t in my closet, or under my rug
this love search is really making me bug
And if you know who you are why don’t you make yourself seen
take the chance with my love and you’ll find out what I mean
Fantasy’s can run but they can’t hide
and when I find you I’m gon’ pour all my love inside
I need love
I need love

I wanna kiss you hold you never scold you just love you
suck on you neck, caress you and rub you
Grind moan and never be alone
if you’re not standing next to me you’re on the phone
Can’t you hear it in my voice, I need love bad
I’ve got money but love’s something I’ve never had
I need your ruby red lips sweet face and all
I love you more than a man who’s 10 feet tall
I’d watch the sunrise in your eyes
we’re so in love when we hug we become paralyzed
Our bodies explode in ecstasy unreal
you’re as soft as a pillow and I’m as hard as steel
It’s like a dream land, I can’t lie I never been there
maybe this is an experience that me and you can share
Clean and unsoiled yet sweaty and wet
I swear to you this is something that I’ll never forget
I need love
I need love

See what I mean I’ve changed I’m no longer
a play boy on the run I need something that’s stronger
Friendship, trust honor respect admiration
this whole experience has been such a revelation
It’s taught me love and how to be a real man
to always be considerate and do all I can
Protect you you’re my lady and you mean so much
my body tingles all over from the slightest touch
Of your hand and understand I’ll be frozen in time
till we meet face to face and you tell me you’re mine
If I find you girl I swear I’ll be a good man
I’m not gonna leave it in destiny’s hands
I can’t sit and wait for my princess to arrive
I gotta struggle and fight to keep my dream alive
I’ll search the whole world for that special girl
when I finally find you watch our love unfurl
I need love
I need love

Girl, listen to me
When I be sittin in my room all alone, staring at the wall
fantasies, they go through my mind
And I’ve come to realize that I need true love
and if you wanna give it to me girl make yourself seen
I’ll be waiting
I love you

Jody Watley – Looking for a New Love lyrics

You gave me love, you did me wrong
Didn’t know what to do
But baby I’m strong, gonna get over you
A new boy I’m gonna choose (You’ll see)

My love was true, still you threw it all away
Now other guys will have me, they’ll appreciate my love
Tell me, how does it feel

You know that I needed you
You know that you meant the world to me
You know I had to have you
Now I’m gonna find somebody new

I’m looking for a new love baby
A new love, yeah yeah yeah
I’m looking for a new love baby
A new love, yeah yeah yeah

Was she hot, did she turn you out
Curiousity rules my brain
Was she worth my heart, it’s torn all apart
Are you going back again? (Tell me)

My love was true, still you threw it all away
But now you’re like the rest, unworthy of my best
Hasta la vista, baby

You know that I needed you
You know that you meant the world to me
You know that I had to have you
Now I’m gonna find somebody new

I’m looking for a new love baby
A new love, yeah yeah yeah
I’m looking for a new love baby
A new love, yeah yeah yeah

I’m looking for a new love baby
A new love, yeah yeah yeah
I’m looking for a new love baby
A new love, yeah yeah yeah

Other guys will have me, they’ll appreciate my love
Tell me, how does it feel
But now you’re like the rest, unworthy of my best
Hasta la vista, baby

I’m looking for a new love baby, a new love
I’m looking for a new love baby, a new love
I’m looking for a new love baby, a new love

U2 – Where The Streets Have No Name lyrics
I wanna run, I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls that hold me inside
I want to reach out and touch the flame
Where the streets have no name

I want to feel sunlight on my face
I see the dust-cloud disappear without a trace
I want to take shelter from the poison rain
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name

We’re still building and burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It’s all I can do

The city’s a flood and our love turns to rust
We’re beaten and blown by the wind, trampled in dust
I’ll show you a place high on a desert plain
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name

We’re still building and burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It’s all I can do

INXS – Need You Tonight lyrics

Come over here
All you got is this moment
The twenty-first century’s yesterday
You can care all you want
Everybody does yeah that’s okay

So slide over here
And give me a moment
Your moves are so raw
I’ve got to let you know
I’ve got to let you know
You’re one of my kind

I need you tonight
‘Cause I’m not sleeping
There’s something about you girl
That makes me sweat

How do you feel
I’m lonely
What do you think
Can’t take it all
Whatcha gonna do
Gonna live my life
