Mad About You


(Brown, Whelan)

I'm mad about you
You're mad about me babe
Couple of fools run wild aren't we
Pushing the day into the nighttime
Somewhere between the two
We start to see

Mad about you (Mad about you)
Lost in your eyes (Reason aside)
Mad about love (Mad about you)
You and I

Something 'bout you
Right here beside me
Touches the touched part of me like I can't believe
Pushing the night into the daytime
Watching the sky's first light
While the city sleeps



 

I Need a Disguise


(Kelly, Steinberg, Hoffs)

There's a mask on the wall
That I should be wearing
To keep you from seeing
How I'm really feeling
I'd like to be cool
And tell you goodbye
I've been such a fool

And now it's written all over my face
That I'm about to cry
I need a disguise
To hide my love
I need a disguise
You've seen too much
I fall apart when you touch me
With your eyes

I need a disguise
Oooh baby
I need to get wise
Oooh baby

I know just where you're going
And I know who you'll be seeing
If I swallow all my pride
There'll be nothing left of me
I'm so confused
It can't be denied (I think you better run now)
Either way I lose
And it's written all over my face
How I hurt inside

I need a disguise
To hide my love
I need a disguise
You've seen too much
I fall apart when you touch me
With your eyes

I need a disguise
Oooh baby
I need to get wise
Oooh baby



 

Since You've Gone


(Caffey, Buckingham, Segal)

Since you've gone
Nothing really matters
all I do is hang out with my pillow
I wait in anticipation
For year call that never comes

Since you've gone
Don't care about tomorrow
Since you've gone my heart's barely beating
I wait
In anticipation
for your touch it never comes

Another wild Friday night
And I'm waiting here for you
My head says stay home and die
But my heart says break on through

There were times
When you really loved me
All the times we would run together
To the heart
The heart of the city
Dreams that filled the night


Another wild Friday night
And I'm waiting here for you
My head says stay home and die
But my heart says break on through

I ought to get into my car
Hit that pedal hard
I'll drive until I find a way
Since you've gone away

Since you've gone
Nothing really matters
All I do is hang out with my pillow...



 

I Feel the Magic


(Caffey, Segal)

Last night I gave up on myself
I hit the bed, tell me what should I do
And in a dream I saw your face

It's more than just a face
You make me want to give my heart away
I feel the magic
Like I never felt before
I imagine that it's always been there
I feel the magic
There's an angel looking after me
Angel baby give me more and more

Today I woke up by myself
I hit the streets I wondered what should I do
I never noticed from the start
That I could feel alive again
That I could feel a part of
I feel the magic
Like I never felt before
I imagine that it's always been there
I feel the magic
There's an angel looking after me
Angel baby give me more and more

 

I Never Wanted a Rich Man


(Caffey)

I never wanted a rich man
Just someone with soul
It was on the day I met you
I vowed to never let you go

I never knew much about romance
Always used my lucky charms
I learned it all in just one lesson
When you first held me in your arms

Open up your heart
Let me inside
If you listen to your intuition
We'll have a chance tonight

Keep me in your heart
And hold on tight
If you read into my intuition
We'll find a way tonight

I put away all my heroes
And all the lovers I have known
Even though I've had my share
I've spent too many nights alone

Don't need to look for fame or fortune
I have found my paradise
you've got the whole world in your hands
And a fortune in your eyes



 

Band of Gold


(Dunbar, Wayne)

Now that you've gone
All that's left is a band of gold
All that's left are the dreams I hold
Band of gold
And the memories of what love could be
If you were still here with me

You took me from the shelter of my mother
I have never known or loved another
We kissed after taking vows
That night on our honeymoon
We stayed in separate rooms

I wait in the darkness of my lonely room
Filled with sadness filled with gloom
Hoping soon
That you'll walk back through that door
And love me like you tried before

Now that you've gone
All that's left is a band of gold
All that's left are the dreams I hold
Band of gold

And memories of what love could be
If you were still here with me

Don't you know that I wait
In the darkness of my lonely room
Filled with sadness filled with gloom
Hoping soon
That you'll walk back through that door
And love me like you tried before

Since you've been gone
All that's left is a band of gold
All that's left are the dreams I hold
Band of gold
And the memories of what love could be
If you were still here with me

I wait in the darkness of my lonely room
Filled with sadness filled with gloom
Hoping soon
That you'll walk back through that door
And love me like you tried before



 

Gotta Get to You


(Caffey, Carlisle, Brown, Whelan)

Here I go again
Looking to you, you pass me by
Go home and pretend
There's no one else just you and I

To be holding you
Touching you
'Cause I'm dreaming about you
But dreams aren't enough

Gotta get to you
Catch your eye
Gotta get to you
If only I could tell you why

I gotta get to you
Make you see
gotta get to you
If only you'd come 'round to me

See you everyday
You smile my way, light sparks inside
I need the words to say
To open up this heart of mine

Here we go again
So close to you, the moment's now
The chance is wasted when
I wait too long and you slip out



 

From the Heart


(C. Caffey, T. Caffey)

All the things I used to do
Don't seem to mean much anymore
Every face and every place
Were lost along the way
I'm sitting here all by myself
Looking in the mirror
Holding an old photograph
Oh how it used to be

Everything comes from the heart
I believe that it's true
Time changes pride from the heart
It's all from the heart

All the words I used to say
Don't seem to mean much anymore
Every hurt and every word
Were bought along the way
I'm sitting here all by myself
Looking out the window
I'm playing an old record
The same old melody

Every word comes from the heart
I believe that it's true
Time mends each hurt from the heart
It's all from the heart

There's no need to hide inside
The old world anymore
You're standing here right next to me
I turn to you and smile

Love, it begins from the heart
I believe that it's true
Time mends each hurt from the heart
I believe that it's true
Every word comes from the heart
I believe that it's true

 

Shot in the Dark


(Brown, Whelan)

It's a shot in the dark
But baby I'd like the chance
Fate ain't working
So I'm taking it into my hands
No sad songs not tonight
No slow songs not tonight
It's a shot in the dark
And a chance at real romance

Who'd ever believe
I'd ever see the edge of your tan
But here in the moonlight
Looks like summer is past
You can take me, I'm yours tonight
Make me yours tonight
It's a shot in the dark
And a chance at real romance

Real romance with you, I'd like to see
Romance with you I'd like to feel
Romance with you I'd like to be
The one who does to you what it is you do to me

Shot in the dark and baby I'd like the chance
Fate ain't working so I'm taking it into my hands
Your eyes shine tonight like the first time I saw you dance
I'm gonna get to know you any way that I can
I ain't waiting not tonight
No waiting...
Shot in the dark and a chance at real romance



 

Stuff and Nonsense


(T. Finn)

Disobey my own decisions
I deserve all your suspicions
First it's yes and then it's no
I dilly dally down to you, oh
But I've got no secrets that I battle in my sleep
I won't make promises to you that I can't keep

And you know that I love you
Here and now not forever
I can give you the present
I don't know about the future
That's all stuff and nonsense

I once lived for the future
Everyday was one day closer
Greener on the other side
Yes I believe before I met you
I assumed that your love was brighter than the stars in my eyes
Now I know how and when I know where and why

And you know that I love you
Here and now not forever
I can give you the present
I don't know about the future
That's all stuff and nonsense
