Baby, don't turn out the light
I wanna see you look at me
Whisper only truth tonight
Not just promises and empty fantasies
I don't need a bed of roses
'Cause roses wither away
All I really need is honesty
From someone with a strong heart, a gentle hand
Who'll take me as I am
Baby, I need for you to know
Just exactly how I feel
Fiery passions come and go
I'd trade a million pretty words for one touch that is real
I don't need a bed of roses
'Cause roses wither away
All I really need is honesty
From someone with a strong heart, a gentle hand
Who'll take me as I am
From someone with a strong heart, a gentle hand
Who'll take me as I am

They said change your clothes
She said no I won't
They said comb your hair
She said some kids don't
And her parents' dreams went up in smoke
They said you can't leave
She said yes I will
They said don't see him
She said his name is Bill
She's on a roll and it's all uphill
She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
He said you can be anything you want to be
She's a wild one runnin' free
She loves Rock and Roll
They said it's Satan's tongue
She thinks they're too old
They think she is too young
And the battle lines are clearly drawn
She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
He said you can be anything you want to be
She's a wild one runnin' free
She has future plans and dreams at night
When they tell her life is hard she says that's all right
She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
He said you can be anything you want to be
She's a wild one runnin' free

Didn't I make you feel like you were the only man?
And didn't I give you everything that a woman possibly can?
Each time I tell myself I think I've had enough
Well, I'm gonna show you baby that a woman can be tough
So, come on, come on, come on and
Take it
Take another little piece of my heart now baby
Take another little piece of my heart
I know you will
Break it
Break another little piece of my heart now baby
'Cause you know you got it if it makes you feel good, so good
You're out on the street lookin' good baby
Deep down in your heart you know that it ain't right
No you'll never hear me cryin' you know I cry all the time
Each time I tell myself that I can't stand the pain
You hold me in your arms and I start singin' once again
So come on, come on, come on and
Take it
Take another little piece of my heart now baby
Take another little piece of my heart
I know you will
Break it
Break another little piece of my heart now baby
'Cause you know you got it if it makes you feel good, so good
Each time I tell myself that I can't stand the pain
You hold me in your arms and I start singin' once again
So, come on, come on, come on
Take it
Take another little piece of my heart now baby
Take another little piece of my heart
I know you will
Break it
Break another little piece of my heart now baby
'Cause you know you got it if it makes you feel good, so good

Baby we had something goin' strong
I've never seen nothin' so right go wrong
You used to wanna love me day and night
We used to never wanna ever leave paradise
Now we sleep at night back to back
Life's too short to love like that
You never wanna kiss me anymore
You run around and I walk the floor
You know I used to mean everything to you
Now I'm last in line and that just won't do
I feel blue, you feel trapped
Life's too short to love like that
You put me down just to stand me up
Time after time, well enough's enough
I give and give without gettin' back
Life's too short to love like that
Life's too short to love like that
It's way too late for a wake-up call
And I ain't gonna wait for those tears to fall
I used to think we could work things out
But if you don't wanna change then there's no doubt
The fire is out and that's so sad
Life's too short to love like that
You put me down just to stand me up
Time after time, well enough's enough
I give and give without gettin' back
Life's too short to love like that
Life'w too short to love like that

Remember when I said the next time would be the last time?
That time came this mornin' when you came in
You always had a line to change my mind
So I guess you thought I'd just let you break my heart again
I don't want to stop lovin' you...but I will
I don't like wakin' up alone...but I will
You're the only one who can make my heart stand still
I don't want to let you go...but I will
I could write a book on the innocent looks you're giving me
You've got one for every story you tell
I've seen it all and I'm not gonna fall
For those make believe tears
So, darlin' I will try to make it clear
I don't want to stop lovin' you...but I will
I don't like wakin' up alone...but I will
You're the only one who can make my heart stand still
I don't want to let you go...but I will
You're the only one who can make my heart stand still
I don't want to let you go...but I will

Ain't no looking back or second guessing
It's time to find what love is really all about
Go the distance
Let our hearts lead us on
All the way to forever tonight
Can't resist it
The feelin's way too strong
Go the distance this time
The road to love is paved with shiftin' gravel
We may find ourselves on shaky ground
And there ain't no place that these two hearts can't travel
Even when we're miles apart together we are bound to
Go the distance
Let our hearts lead us on
All the way to forever tonight
Can't resist it
The feelin's way too strong
Go the distance this time
There will be rainy days and bridges left to cross
But if we lose our way we can't get lost if we
Go the distance
Let our hearts lead us on
All the way to forever tonight
Can't resist it
The feelin's way too strong
Go the distance this time

Just about now I'd be watching you wake up
Feeling my heart beat with yours
Just about now is when we would make love
Like all of the mornings before
But I know it don't help to turn the clock back
'Cause I'm not gonna make it til I face this face
This is not about trying to go back in time
This is not about where I'll be a year down the line
It's just moment to moment, surviving somehow
This is not about then, this is just about now
Just about now you'd pull in the driveway
And I'd be there waving hello
Run to my arms, you'd kiss me and hold me
As if you've never let go
And it's just about now when the tears start to fall
And I wonder if I'm gonna make it at all
This is not about trying to go back in time
This is not about where I'll be a year down the line
It's just moment to moment, surviving somehow
This is not about then, this is just about now

I've got this friend who is lonely
She's afraid she'll never find her one and only
A little shy but she can be fun
If the right guy came along
Would you know someone?
I've got this friend and it sounds crazy
But he's been feeling that way too a whole lot lately
And interested, oh I'm sure he'd be
I can almost speak for him
He's that close to me
Maybe in each other
They might find a lover
They've been missin' until now
They'd trust the judgement of
Two friends like us who care so much
Can we get them together...somehow
I've got this friend
Yeah, I think I know her
My arms can almost feel the way he'd hold her
It's like he's here when you describe him
And if he's anything like you I'm sure she'd like him
This is not about trying to go back in time
This is not about where I'll be a year down the line
It's just moment to moment, surviving somehow
This is not about then, this is just about now
Can we get them together...I've got this friend

Just around the eyes
That's where you remind me
Of someone I left behind me
I'm sorry if I stare
But you must have stirred a memory
And it caught me by surprise
But it was only for a moment
And just around the eyes
Something in your touch
Took me back a long way
And made me say the wrong name
I wish i could explain
But if I had to tell you
Where a small resemblence lies
It's something in your touch and just around the eyes
I'm over him completely
I rarely think about him at all
But when I look at you
Tell me what should I do
With the little bit of him that I saw
Only when you smiled
You could have bowled me over
A memory out of nowhere
That came and went so fast
Don't tell me I still love him, that has to be a lie
It's just something in your touch
And only when you smike and only for a moment
Just around the eyes
. . .

There's a friend who will call
When her husbands asleep
Crossing the phone lines for comfort
And she cries that she needs him and
Someday he'll change
And now's not a good time to go
And it isn't my place to say leave him and run
Cause no love is worth all the damage he's done
But if she'll hold her ground
Then I'll hold my tongue, ever the diplomat
Oh I'd like to think
That I would be stronger than that
Where's her head?
Where's her nerve?
Does part of her think this is all she deserves?
Oh I would be stronger
I would not stay one minute longer
I would be stronger than that
It started out good, they usually do
Then one day it's taken for granted
Til word become weapons and love turns to pain
Oh, why is she still holding on
She says living without him
Is too hard to face
And I try to imagine myself in her place
But with well chosen words and well placed tears
She forgives him in two seconds flat
Oh I'd like to think that I would be stronger than that
Where's her head?
Where's her nerve?
Does part of her think this is all she deserves?
Oh I would be stronger
I would not stay one minute longer
I would be stronger than that
I know what she's thinking and I know what she'd say
That my life and her life are like night and like day
And her love is the love that will save him
Brave words, but I don't believe them
Where's her head?
Where's her nerve?
Does part of her think this is all she deserves?
Oh I would be stronger
I would not stay one minute longer
I would be stronger than that
Oh I would be stronger than that
I would not wait one minute longer
I would be stronger than that
