Tossed and turned all night
Dreams in black and white
My want has turned to need
There's only one way this can lead

You've got me walking on the edge
With silent things your lips have said
You've got to bend before I break
There's more to love than what we make

Up and down, ring around the roses
You move in close, I come undone
How long till you ever know it
Till you see that I'm the one

Say yeah, come on, baby, make your move
Say yeah, it's time we call it love
Say yeah, you don't need nobody else
Say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Comes a time
When you've got to trust your heart
'Cause down the line
Somebody blows your cool apart

You've got that look upon your face
Written dreams you can't erase
So don't go telling lies
We've got the answers in our eyes

Up and down, ring around the roses
You move in close, I come undone
How long till you ever know it
Till you see that I'm the one

Say yeah, come on, baby, make your move
Say yeah, it's time we call it love
Say yeah, you don't need nobody else
Say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Say yeah, come on, baby, make your move
Say yeah, it's time we call it love
Say yeah, you don't need nobody else
Say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Say yeah, come on, baby, make your move
Say yeah, it's time we call it love
Say yeah, you don't need nobody else
Say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Some girls sit by the phone
At home alone hoping maybe you'll call
Not you, you'll break a date
You wouldn't wait at all

If I'm hard to handle, tell me about it
Here's my angle, think about it
It takes two to tango, and I ought to know

Who do you, who do you, who do you love?
Who do you, who do you, who do you love?
Who, who do you love?

Some girls do it right every night
And never ask for more
Not you, you know the score
You always ask what for

Where's the danger, tell me about it
We'll be strangers, think about it
If it ever changes, I ought to know

Who do you, who do you, who do you love?
Who do you, who do you, who do you love?
Who, who do you love?

If I'm hard to handle, tell me about it
Here's my angle, think about it
It takes two to tango, and I ought to know

Who do you, who do you, who do you love?
Who do you, who do you, who do you love?
Who, who do you love?

Who do you, who do you, who do you love?
Who do you, who do you, who do you love?
Who, who do you love?

Who do you, who do you, who do you love?
Who do you, who do you, who do you love?
Who, who do you love?

There was a certain face
That filled a thousand nights
With all the sweetest dreams
And promises of paradise
But that face was gone
When the dawn would come and steal you
Yet I still could feel you
Waiting just a kiss away
I'd surely know your face
When love would cast its spell
I'd recognise each curve and line of you
I knew it well
Now at last you're here and I can tell

Something in your eyes I see
Is all I've ever wanted
And something in your smile for me
Is calling out my name
Your eyes it seems
Are mirrors of my dreams
In ways I can't explain
And my heart will never be the same

We never said a word
As if we'd always known
That through the bittersweet
Of waiting we were not alone
Now we're close enough
For the touch of love to find us
Fantasies designed us
But they never really could
Begin to measure you
No, pictures ever do
And as I watch you framed in sunlight
And a sky of blue
I know what my life's been leading to

Something in your eyes I see
Is all I've ever wanted
And something in your smile for me
Is calling out my name
Your eyes it seems
Are mirrors of my dreams
In ways I can't explain
And my heart will never be the same

Something in your eyes I see
Is all I've ever wanted
And something in your smile for me
Is calling out my name
Your eyes it seems
Are mirrors of my dreams
In ways I can't explain
And my heart will never be the same
And my heart will never be the same
Something in your eyes

That endless season
When time was all we had
We saw forever
And caught it in our hands
Life was a charm
Our hearts were filled
With music and laughter
When time was all we had

I never will forget
Your face in silhouette
Your voice will be the sweetest sound
I'll ever hear and yet
We knew somehow
The song would never end
When time was all we had to spend

I never will forget
Your face in silhouette
Your voice will be the sweetest sound
I'll ever hear and yet
We knew somehow
The song would never end
When time was all we had to spend

I wake up in the dark
The silence brings me to my senses
I wonder where you are
Then I feel the pain, the pain in my heart

‘Cause I'm living without your love
I'm all alone for the first time
And it doesn't seem to be a dream
A dream that will be over

All the words you said
Weren't enough to fool this heartache
The memories in my head
Aren't enough to stop me falling apart

‘Cause I'm living without your love
Maybe it won't be the last time
I don't know how much more I can take
Hopeless, wide awake and here I go

Calling your name again
Thinking of all that we two had before
There's got to be more
This I know
Calling your name again
Remembering all the love you gave to me
And how we used to be

I think of what's to come
Then I turn and see your picture
The tears began to fall
And soon I can't make sense of nothing at all

‘Cause I'm living without your love
Don't think that I'll make it this time
Something tells me this is not the end
Wish I could pretend but here I go

Calling your name again
Thinking of all that we two had before
There's got to be more
This I know
Calling your name again
Remembering all the love you gave to me
And how we used to be

Here I go

Calling your name again
Remembering all the love you gave to me
And how we used to be
How we used to be

I memorise the words I want to say
I practice every move I'll make
I play the scene like you were here
And I feel every breath you take

But all my plans just seem to melt away
The moment you walk in the room
I try to speak but words won't come
Till I'm alone again

I'm leaving my heart on the shelf
Sleep is a place I only cry myself
And dream by myself

I'm not in love alone
We put our two hearts together
Just like I've always known
Once we begin we're forever
And I will never spend
A long night without you again

So now you know
What I've been going through
Now all I really need to know
Is why your eyes look so surprised

Oh no, this can't be true
Would you have let me walk away?
Why have you kept your feelings locked away?
Did I hear you say?

I'm not in love alone
We put our two hearts together
Just like I've always known
Once we begin we're forever
And I will never spend
A long night without you

'Cause I'm not in love alone
We put our two hearts together
Just like I've always known
Once we begin we're forever
And I will never spend
A long night without you

'Cause I'm not in love alone... (fade)

I can be distant like an echo in a canyon
I get resistant and I need your understanding
I don't know what happens, I get removed
I don't mean to fade out but when I do

Remind me to tell you
All the ways that I need you
Remind me to tell you
If somehow I forget to

How much I've come to rely
On the strength that I find in your eyes
If you feel me starting to slide
Remind me to tell you

I can be vacant like a schoolyard in the winter
I get complacent my attention starts to splinter
Then from out of nowhere as I'm watching you sleep
I have so much to tell you, I guess it'll keep

Remind me to tell you
All the ways that I need you
Remind me to tell you
If somehow I forget to

How much I've come to rely
On the strength that I find in your eyes
If you feel me starting to slide
Remind me to tell you

We built the mosaic one piece at a time
Midnight is lavender, morning is lime
Major attention to minor detail
You take it too lightly it's certain to fail

My fundamentals are sadly in need
Instead of advancing I tend to recede
I'll try to change
But if I should start acting the same, yeah

Remind me to tell you
All the ways that I need you
Remind me to tell you
If somehow I forget to

Remind me to tell you
All the ways that I need you
Remind me to tell you
If somehow I forget to

There's always one of the girls
That all the guys dream about
And you hold her in your heart
Imagining how you'll work it out
So you meet her every place you can devise
'Cause from the start you knew
The one she wants is you

You know it's right
When it comes as easy as apple pie
When you just can't do it wrong
She's going for everything you try
If she chose you over all those other guys
It must be luck or simply fate
But it's sure worth the wait

That's the way I feel about it
And there's no one who should ever doubt it
You can't stop a star that's on the rise
That's what I believe
Love could be around the corner
All you've got to do is dream
And never compromise
That's what I believe

I found the world in my arms
The moment I lost my heart
And the bond is much too strong
For anyone else to put apart
So I cherish every moment that she's near
You see the best things in your lives
If you just close your eyes

That's the way I feel about it
And there's no one who should ever doubt it
You can't stop a star that's on the rise
That's what I believe
Love could be around the corner
All you've got to do is dream
And never compromise
That's what I believe

And she maybe out there
Waiting just like you
'Cause at the strangest time and place
You'll find you're face to face

That's the way I feel about it
And there's no one who should ever doubt it
You can't stop a star that's on the rise
That's what I believe
Love could be around the corner
All you've got to do is dream
And never compromise

That's the way I feel about it
And there's no one who should ever doubt it
You can't stop a star that's on the rise
That's what I believe
Love could be around the corner
All you've got to do is dream
And never compromise
That's what I believe

Just today I saw you smile
And it took me back to yesterday
You still move me like you did
When you read me with
Your eyes that way

Haven't seen you for a while
Father time must be a friend of yours
You still take my breath away
Do I really have to say
How much I want you?

Just when I thought I was doing all right
Sleeping away almost half of the night
Now who, who was the last one I needed to see?

Just when I had most of my broken heart
Put back together to make a new start
Now I have to forget starting over, I'm still not over you

I was calm as I could be
As the feelings all came back again
What I was supposed to do
Treat you like a stranger or a friend?

I'm not wise in things of heart
I'm not one of those who knows the moves
I was hanging by a thread
Hanging on each word you said
To hear I love you

Just when I thought I was doing all right
Sleeping away almost half of the night
Now who, who was the last one I needed to see?

Just when I had most of my broken heart
Put back together to make a new start
Now I have to forget starting over, I'm still not over you

Just when I had most of my broken heart
Put back together to make a new start
Now I have to forget starting over, I'm still not over you

Can't we start over, I'm still not over you
Can't we start over, I'm still not over you
Over you
