You can't laugh. You can't cry.
You're actin' kinda funny and you don't know why.
'Cause your heart keeps beatin' like a big, bass drum.
And the beat's gettin' stronger, and it's so much fun.
And you keep on singin', but the words are wrong.
And you can't stop laughin', baby, what's goin' on?

It's only love tryin' to get through.

And the beat's gettin' stronger, and it just won't quit.

"Children, behave"
That's what they say when we're together
"And watch how you play"
They don't understand

And so we're running just as fast as we can
Holding on to one another's hand
Trying to get away into the night
And then you put your arms around me
As we tumble to the ground and then you say

I think we're alone now
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now
The beating of our hearts is the only sound

Look at the way
We gotta hide what we're doing
'Cause what would they say
If they ever knew

And so we're running just as fast as we can
Holding on to one another's hand
Trying to get away into the night
And then you put your arms around me
As we tumble to the ground and then you say

I think we're alone now
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now
The beating of our hearts is the only sound

I think we're alone now
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now
The beating of our hearts is the only sound
I think we're alone now
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now

You may be right, you may be wrong, girl.
I've been hurtin' much too long, girl.
You know, I think I've finally reached the end,
You keep tellin' me that guy's just a friend.
We've been all through it and you'll do it again.
Don't stand there tellin' me, girl, that you're so sorry
Baby, baby, I can't take it no more.
Baby, baby, I can't take it no more.

You build me up, you let me down, girl.
I'm not the kind to fool around, girl.
If this guy really means so much more
Than all the happiness that we had before,
Just go ahead, girl, and walk out the door.
You know I can't go on, I'd rather see you gone.
Baby, baby, I can't take it no more.
Baby, baby, I can't take it no more.

Baby, baby, I can't take it no more.
Baby, baby, I can't take it no more.

I see you standing in the alleys and the hallways
(Wait a second)
You're gone now
I run to touch you, but you vanish through the doorway
And, oh, how
Hard it is to live without you
I love everything about you
Now I know you're really gone
But my imagination is so strong
That I see you coming into view
And your face is telling me that you
Oh, yeah, oh, want to be by my side
Oh, yeah, oh, now it's finally time
(Wait a second)

Mirage, that's all you are to me
Mirage, something I only see

So I keep walking through the alleys and the hallways
Where are you?
I keep remembering the kissing in the doorways
The car, too
How it all comes back to me
The movies every Saturday
The place we used to go to eat
I want so much to have it like it used to be
That I see you coming into view
And your face is telling me that you
Oh, yeah, oh, want to be by my side
Oh, yeah, oh, now it's finally time
(Here it comes again)

Mirage, that's all you are to me
Mirage, something I only see

Just a mirage, that's all you are to me
Just a mirage, something that I only see
Just a mirage, that's all you are to me
Just a mirage, something that I only see

I like the way, you call my name
It sounds so nice
I could never explain
I like the way, you hold my hand
It lets me know that you understand
I like the way, you wanna kiss me
And I like the way, you always miss me

I like the way (I like the way)

I like the way, you come around
To cheer me up, whenever I'm down
I like the way, you make me feel
The love we have, is so very real
I like the way, you wanna kiss me
And I like the way, you always miss me

I like the way (I like the way)

I like the way, we kiss goodnight
It feels so good when you're holding me tight
I like the way, you wanna kiss me
And I like the way, you always miss me

I like the way (I like the way)

I like the way
Oh I like the way
I like the way
Oh I like the way

You are unique, unlike the girls I've known, (real girl),
Incomplete, and nothing on their own.
Now I know what I was searchin' for.

Your shining hair that sways as we walk by, (real girl),
Turned up nose and eyes so big and shiny
Makes me feel so proud that you are mine

Chorus:
You turn me on.
You're someone so fresh and so new.
Don't ever change, 'cause you're real
And I'd know I'd be lost if you do.
You're a real girl (real girl).

Other girls are put on and untrue, (real girl),
You're sincere in everything you do.
Don't you stop, just stay the way you are.

Something is happening inside me.
Something is starting to excite me.

Love's closin' in on me and I can feel it.
Love's closin' in on me and I can feel it.
Love's closin' in on, yeah, it's closin' in on
Love is closin' in on me.

Every time I see you looking, too.

I was so downhearted, baby, till I met with you.
Oh, you took me, took me, out of the blue.
You shook me, shook me, out of the blue.

Out of the blue into your arms,
Oh, I came out of the blue, leavin' the pain behind.
Just as if the rain was fallin', you came into view.
Oh, you took me, took me, out of the blue.
You shook me, shook me, out of the blue.

Out of the blue into a love,
So real, yeah! Out of the blue, how very strange it feels.
Everything was so unproven, till you pulled me through.
Oh, you took me, took me, out of the blue.
You shook me, shook me, out of the blue.

[doo doo-doo doo doo, doo-doo doo doo]
You passed my way, I asked your name.
And since that day I'm not the same.
I fell so hard for you, for every little part of you.

Oh, out of the blue into your arms,

And I've seen enough to know he's not in love with you.
And I understand your feelings, girl, I really do.

Get out, get out, get out now. Get out, he doesn't love you baby.
Get out, get out, get out now. Get out, my love is more than maybe.

Can't you see your future, girl, is lookin' dim,
'Cause he don't need the love that you're givin' him,
And I'm only cryin' tears, the deeper you get in?

Nothing means that much to me.
Ain't no place I haven't been,

She reached right out and took my mind.
She said, "If you want to get love, you've got to give some."
Yeah, it takes a loved one, loved one, someone like you, babe
To make a loved one, loved one, and I do; I love you.
Oh, yes I do.

Without love, a man's a stone,
Cold and grey, stand alone;
Two can make it twice as strong.
Listen, you want to get love, you've got to give some.
