Take me home
Take me home
Want to feel you close to me
Take me home
Take me home
With you is where I want to be

Wrapped in your arms tonight
Just makin' love
Music and candlelight
Stars up above
Take me home (take me home)
Take me home (take me home)
Oh can't you see I want you near
(Can't you see I want you?)
Take me home (take me home)
Take me home (take me home)
Ooh baby, let's get out of here

I'd follow you anywhere
Your place or mine
Just a one-night affair
Would be so fine

I'm in heaven (heaven)
Seems like heaven (heaven)
So much in heaven (heaven)

(Take me home)
(Take me home)

One night with you
Lyin' here next to me
It's the right thing to do
It would be ecstasy
Ooh I'm in heaven (heaven)
Seems like heaven (heaven)
So much in heaven (heaven)

Take me home (take me home)
Take me home (take me home)
Ooh I want to feel you close to me
(I want to feel you close)
Take me home (take me home)
(Take me home) ooh with you
Is where I want to be
Wrapped in your arms tonight
Just makin' love
Music and candlelight
Stars up above

Well I'm in heaven (heaven)
Seems like heaven (heaven)
(Take me, take me home, home with you)
C'mon and take me, ooh baby
Baby take me home
(Take me, take me home, home with you)
You'll be lyin' next to me,
Baby it'd be ecstasy

(Take me, take me home, home with you)
Ah can't you see I want you near
Baby, baby let's get out of here
(Take me, take me home, home with you)

Wasn't it good
The way that I touched you late last night
Wasn't it good again
In the morning's early light

Did you know when you closed
That bedroom door
I betcha didn't know exactly what
I had in store

Wasn't it good
When you felt it coming through you
Wasn't it good
That I knew just how to do you

Did you know you never had it
Like this before
I betcha didn't know
You'd be coming around
Back for more, more, more

Let's have a party
Love's pouring out of my soul
I'm your party hearty
And let the future take control

Just remember my darling
When there's time to spare
You'll be thinking about me
And our hot affair
Saying wasn't it good
Wasn't it good so good

Did you know you never had it
Like this before
And I betcha didn't know
You'd be coming around
Back for more, more, more

Let's have a party
Love's pouring out of my soul
I'm your party hearty
And let the future take control

Let's have a party
We'll make the best of it while we can
God you won't be sorry,
Cause I'm committed to
Pleasing my man, my man
Just remember my darling
When there's time to spare
I'll be thinking about you
And our hot affair
Saying wasn't it good
Wasn't it good so good

Do you love her, can you dig it,
Did I do it to you baby so good
Did you want it, can you dig it,
Do you love it baby, baby so good
Was it was it really good,
You love it didn't you lover
God I'm so ooh shoot, am I good
Did you love it did you want it
Can you dig it
Baby, baby so good

SAY THE WORD

The moon hangs like the blade of an axe tonight,
and it's poised to drop sometime soon enough
on this dump truck where I lie mixed up with the morning's trash.
There's a piece of glass sticking in my back and tar covering my mouth.
But it's okay cause I'm still breathing and my hands are free of the heap.
And I think that I see that big blade falling.
And I think that I see that big blade coming.
And the pressure is getting to me and the waste in which
I sit is just lurking beside me.
And I can't tell if it's me or the meat that's rotting.
I'm gonna have to give up sometime soon.
But it's okay cause I'm still breathing and my hands are free of the heap.
And I think that I see that big blade falling.
And I think that I see that big blade coming.
You can watch me disappear.
You can watch me.
All I'm losing is me.
And I think that I see that big blade falling.
And I think that I see that big blade coming to slice open a great canyon
through the earth so you can watch me disappear.

HAPPY WAS THE DAY WE MET
WRITER PEPPI CASTRO

It hurts inside to know of all the times
We've ever had a cry
To keep away the reasoning of why we lie
It only leads me down a lonely road
And strange of fates as a world to
A new and different time or place
To live away the time of day so we can race
Exactly what we choose just not to believe
[Chorus:]
And ooh
Happy was the day we met
Never could I ever forget you
I knew too well not to stay
We paid our price turn our heads
Close our eyes and sacrifice
Excuses of love
That once was warm has turned to ice
But only leave me cold and so alone
Now memories of years and fun
Can only turn my eyes to see
All the good that's been undone
But I believe we're lucky just to learn
From what we were
[Chorus]
What about..oooh yeah
Oh oh oh yeah
Oh if you go away
Oh, you so happy baby
Now, memories of years and fun
Can only turn my eyes to see
All the good that's been undone
But I believe we're lucky just to learn
From what we were
And ooh
Happy was the day we met
Never will I ever forget you
I knew too well not to stay
Happy was the day we met
Never could I ever forget you
Happy was the day we met
Never could I ever forget you
Happy was the day we met
Never could I ever forget you

Love And Pain

LET THIS BE A LESSON TO YOU
WRITER TOM SNOW

I know this chick she lives down on Melrose
She ain't satisfied without some pain
Friday night is goin' up inside her...again
Well crack the whip
'Cause that bitch is just insane
I'm serious
She's pretty tied up
Hangin' upside down
She's pretty tied up
An you can ride her
She's pretty tied up
Hangin' upside down
I can't tell you she's the right one
Oh no,oh no,oh no
Once there was this rock n' roll band rollin' on the streets
Time went by and it became a joke
We just needed more and more fulfilling- Uh-huh
Time went by and it all went up in smoke
But check it out
She's pretty tied up
Hangin' upside down
She's pretty tied up
An you can ride her
She's pretty tied up
Hangin' upside down
Ohh I can't tell you she's the
right one
Oh no,oh no,oh no
Once you made that money it costs more now
It might cost a lot more than you'd think
I just found a million dollars
That someone forgot
It's days like this that push me o'er the brinks
Cool and stressing
(pronounced:Kool ranch dres'ing)
She's pretty tied up
Hangin' upside down
She's pretty tied up
An you can ride her
She's pretty tied up
Hangin' upside down
And I can't tell you she's the
right one
Oh she's the right one...[etc.]
(But I can tell you a thing or two
'Bout somethin' else
If you really wanna know-Know what
I'm sayin')

. . .


CHORUS:
It's too late to say you want me
But it's too late
Once my love for you was so great
It's too late to love me now

It's too bad, you say you need me
Ah it's too bad
And I know the feeling and it's so sad
It's too late to love me now
It's too late to love me now

Don'tcha you know how hard I've tried
Hold out just for you
Loving you from memory day by day
Someone came into my life
And turned my dreams around
Well he's taking all the love you turned away

Chorus

Don'tcha you know how hard I've tried
Hold out just for you
Loving you from memory day by day
Someone came into my life
And turned my dreams around
He's taking all the love you turned away

It's too bad, you say you need me
And it's too bad
And I know the feeling and it's so sad
It's too late to love me now
It's too late to love me now

. . .


He was just another boy from Georgia
Playing in a rock-n-roll band
I was living in L.A., in a Hollywood way
Then I met him and he loved me,
We got married

Chorus:
Now he's too far gone to hold me
Too far gone, he doesn't wanna know me
Too far gone, and he doesn't really know
No he'll never get to know his son

Now I know that I'm a stubborn woman
But I knew he was a passionate man
Though our feelings were intense
Our problems were immense
But we tried hard and we held on
But we let it go

Chorus

It's hard to cut it loose
But only one man holds the key
To what I did to many men
Was finally done to me
Now I'm tryin' not to fall to pieces
But I think about him every day
When I lay down by his side,
Tears of love would fill my eyes
Ooh I loved him and he loved me
But we let it go

Too far gone
Too far gone
And he doesn't really know
God, he'll never get to know his son, his son

. . .


Chorus:
I'm your prisoner
You got me chained up to your love
I'm your prisoner hey, hey
Someone better free me
From these thoughts that I'm thinking of

Love to be in your arms
I'm a captive of your charms
The walls are much too high
Now I just wanna touch the sky
I never thought your love would
Threaten to hold me this way

Chorus

All beated and abused
Now I feel tied up and misused
I was pleased up from the start
No one sees my broken heart
I never thought your love would
Threaten to hold me this way

I'm your prisoner, I'm your prisoner for your love
I'm your prisoner
Wrapped up in your arms
I'm a captive of your charms
The walls are much too high
Now I just wanna touch the sky
Ooh baby I've been beaten and abused
Ah I've been tied up and misused
I was pleased up from the start
No one sees my broken heart
I can't escape your powers
I'm gettin' weaker by the hour
I was such a wicked lover
But just do it like no other
I never thought your love would
Threaten to hold me this way

Chorus x2

I never thought your love would
Threaten to hold me this way

. . .


Had my share of disco nights
Did some talking, rainbow lights
Easy smile shines like gold
Burning hot and turning cold
Live that kind of life before
Lost the note to learn the score
Something tells me that
There must be something more

Chorus:
This time I'm holdin' out for love
Made up my mind
I'm holdin' out for love
Mister this time
I'm holdin' on, holdin' back
Holdin' out for love

Had my fill of party scenes
One night stands and neon dreams
Good times, friends and fancy clothes
Flashing highs and crashing lows
So if that's what's on your mind
Well I'll just take a pass this time
I believe I rather just leave it all behind

Chorus

I need to find someone
Who'll still be holding me
When the dance is done

Chorus x3

. . .


I'm shoppin', gonna buy my blues away
Shoppin', I'm walking up to the counter and say
I want this sweater, I sure feel better
Shoppin', gonna take my troubles to town
Shoppin', you don't need money down
Charge it, wrap it, send it
Shoppin'

Ever since my mother took me to a big department store
My heartbeat escalated all the way to the second floor
I couldn't hide my passion for the latest fashion craze
My mama told me that's just another phase I'm going through
Whatcha got that's new?

Shoppin', gonna buy my blues away
Shoppin', I got bad news today
Instead of eating cause my man's cheating
Shoppin', I'm gonna take my troubles to town
Shoppin', while everyone else is smokin', token', coken'
Well I'll be shoppin'

Hit it, boys

(Spoken in background)
Excuse me Miss,
See that - the dress over there?
How many colors does it come in?
Yes, all right. No, I'd like every one
No, I'm not going to try it
I know it'll fit
Ooh, you know what?
Let's go up... Ohh, they're having a sale
My God, I love sales
No, I don't have a last name
It's just Cher, just plain Cher
Ooh, I like the shoes
Do you think you could... this thing,
It's all pink and wrinkly.. it's...
What a darling little bag

(Back to Singing)
Shoppin', I'm gonna buy it
Shoppin', I never try it on for size
Shoppin, Will I like it
Shoppin', Does the color match my eyes
Folks say I'm daring for what I'm wearing
I'm always scaring the people's staring
So I'm declaring, I'm tired of swearing
I'm just shoppin'

Shoppin', I'm gonna but my blues away
Shoppin', I got bad news today
Shoppin', I'm gonna take my troubles to town
Shoppin', don't need money down
Shoppin', gonna buy my blues away
Shoppin', walking up to the counter and say
I want that sweater, I sure feel better
Shoppin', charge it, wrap it, send it
Shoppin', instead of eating cause my man's cheating
I've been shoppin'
While other people may be smokin', token', coken'
I'll be shoppin'

Boys, go and shine up your shoes
Girls, run and powder your nose
'Cause tonight you'll be shaking
From your head down to your toes

Well feeling your cool is as good as looking it
Thinking you're cool is as good as knowing it
Playing it cool is as good as blowing it
You know you can't spend a dollar, if you
Ain't got a dime
You can't hook a fish if you ain't got a line
You won't catch the bus if you're not there in time

So go read up your books and sharpen your hooks
Then all you need is money
And a mouth full of honey
And if you play your cards right
After dancing all night
You won't have to walk home alone
You won't have to walk home alone

Boys, you can hang loose and slip up real cool
But if your lady has a love noose she might never let you go
And if you think maybe you're too young
And you just can't cope, just grab a razor sharp
Pair of cutting shears and cut a hole right in the rope
Snip a hole right in the rope

Boys, go and shine up your shoes
Girls, run and powder your nose
'Cause tonight you'll be shaking
From your head down to your toes

Well if you wake up tomorrow morning
Can't remember what you did
Just ring up some of your friends
And they'll tell you just how low you slid
Oh don't be ashamed of anything you hear
After all you can't be blamed when you're drinking
So much beer

Hey, don't worry that what you did just wasn't right
Just remember, brothers and sisters
After every day's another night
After every day's another night

Boys, go and shine up your shoes
Girls, run and powder your nose
'Cause tonight you'll be shaking
From your head down to your toes

Boys, go and shine up your shoes
Girls, run and powder your nose
'Cause tonight you'll be shaking
From your head down to your toes

. . .


I get up this morning, forget about all my plans
Think about my vacations with my latest man
Everything I did, what I should've done
Why I didn't stay why I didn't run

Only I hold the key to unlock the door
I might make mistakes I made them before
Think I hear about my life as a book
Think I rather forget but they forced me to look

Chorus:
(Mirror image, mirror image)
If it isn't in black and white
(It never happened)
(Mirror image) Reflection of me
Do you see what they want you to see?
Looking at my life through mirror image
Mirror image

Must I confess everything that I've done?
Can't a girl go out and have herself some fun?
I don't wanna be judge I don't want the blame
Living for the day is how I play the game

There always a dream there's always a stage
Somebody's looking now it's on the front page
Through my rear view mirror I can see where I've been
I forget the beginning and I can't see the end

Chorus

Only I hold the key to unlock the door
I might make mistakes I made them before
Think I hear about my life as a book
Think I rather forget but they forced me to look

Chorus x 2 (ad libs)

. . .

I can slide down places that you never knew
Try me on for size at the roll-a-rama
If you tie my laces, then I'll follow you
Follow you, follow you

Chorus

Where do we draw the line on what's going on
When do we take a stand and demand to know the truth
(Talk is cheap) Won't get the problem solve
(We're in too deep) Not to get it solve
We got the sun for free so explain to me

Why gas is up a dollar I gotta holler holy smoke
Ah they say atomic power could never hurt a flower
Holy smoke
Every quick solution leads to more pollution
Holy smoke
They say they found the answer breathing causes cancer
Holy smoke
All I can say is holy smoke

Why do we turn away from what's going on
We'll ever believe again in those who hide the truth
(Talk is cheap) Won't get the problem solve
(We're in too deep) Not to get it solve
Don't throw it all a way, it's easier enough to say

CHORUS:
When gas is up a dollar everybody holler holy smoke
They say atomic power could never hurt a flower
Holy smoke
Fifty-five faster could drive us to disaster
Holy smoke
If I would just say go on and shove it
The media would love it
Holy smoke
All I can say is holy smoke

Where do we draw the line
When do we take a stand
Why do we turn away
We'll ever believe again
(Talk is cheap) Won't get the problem solve
(We're in too deep) Not to get it solve
Don't throw it all a way, it's easier enough to say

Chorus

. . .



Outrageous, outrageous
(They say) I'm outrageous
It's the rage

I'm gonna wear what I will and spend some
And I will be dress to kill don'tcha know
And when the lights come up
I'm ready I'm ready
To put on a show with class
And if I clash it's cause I want to
What a show and I want everyone to know
They're gonna fly up, get an eyeful
Everything that's craved from me
I'm gonna be, I'm gonna be outrageous

Outrageous
(They say) I'm outrageous
It's the rage it's the rage

With my long black hair hanging way down to my
Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies
Don't tell me what to do don't tell me what to be
See I don't trust anybody else's traits about make-up and me

Well in my show I let everything go
Is what you want is whatcha wanna see from me
But when the curtain comes down
And you're on your way back home
I change into my jeans that are split at the seam
I grab my funky black jacket and make quite a racket
You drive like you're an outlaw
Cause everything that's craved from me
I'm gonna be, I'm gonna be outrageous

So outrageous
I'm outrageous honey yes a rage
It's the rage
Outrageous, outrageous
I'm outrageous
It's the rage it's a rage
Outrageous, outrageous
They say I'm outrageous
