Lyrics: Money's Only Money
Verse I:
You can drive in your limousine, Right to the latest scene,
Buy all your friends, a round of drinks, Including the man of your dreams, But it never seems to happen that way, No it never happens that way
Chorus:
Cause money's only money, Money's only money, Money, money, money, money, Won't buy this heart of gold.
VerseII:
So you grab your cash, And your fool-proof plans,
The hottest potion that money can buy, Will bring on that special man,
Well it never really happens that way, No it never, Never happens that way.
Chorus and some guitar....
Bridge:
People say, you don't save love for a rainy day,
I only know, that it fades, when money's the name of the game.
Verse III:
Can I draw you a picture, Baby you eyes are money green,
And you won't find no recipes for love, in the back of a magazine,
Cause it never really happens that way, No it never, never happens that way.
Chorus.
Lyrics: Now You Tell Me
Verse I:
Now you tell me, your love has gone away, and for reasons you can't explain, I'm no longer on your mind, all the time.
So you tell me, nothing's feeling right, you've been holding it deep inside, you can't hold it anymore, not tonight.
Over and over, our love has died,
It might be better to never try,
I'm just a man waiting on a miracle,
When I'd be a fool, to believe in one.
Verse II:
Now you tell me, that promises we said, keep rolling through your head, but it does not change one thing, not a word.
So you tell me, you can do without, a man who holds love in his hand, and holds it tighter than a chain, and deeper than the night.
Does it really matter who won or lost,
Lesson to the one left hanging on,
I'm just a man waiting on a miracle,
Would I be a fool to believe in one.
Bridge:
So what if I say, stay a little longer,
What can I whisper in your ear tonight,
Just don't ever let it go unspoken,
That's the one thing I fear inside.
Verse III:
Now you tell me, you're just another love,
taking the final scene, and it's easy to forget, there's nothing to forgive.
So you tell me, and every word is true,
Cause I can see it in your eyes, or are they just reflecting mine.
All in all I don't regret a thing,
Cause never looking, is never seeing,
I'm just a man waiting on a miracle, would I be a fool to believe in one.
Oh, Now you tell me, oh now you tell me, now you've said it, good-bye.
Lyrics: Once Upon a Time
Verse I:
Standing low inside a cold November shower,
Coffee, cigarettes and lose a few more hours,
You reached for a man, and lucky as I am,
The words that I said, were straight as a line,
The things that we did, still play in my mind,
It was, once upon a time.
Verse II:
Down the street the neon signs are turning blue and,
I wonder if you ever think about us too and,
Now here I stand, My head in hand,
The words that I said, were straight as a line,
The things that we did, still play in my mind,
It was, once upon a time.
Bridge:
I go calling, I am fallen, Another season, I'm here in pieces.
Verse III:
The city sleeps, and the morning brings a new day,
It's just a place to stumble through another replay,
And in these lonely hours, I still feel the power,
Words that we said, were straight as a line,
The things that we did, still play in my mind,
It was once upon a time,
It was once upon a time.
Lyrics: Desperate Love
Verse I:
Baby I'd follow you anywhere, across the floor into a chair,
Down the hall to a safer place, across the tracks through a jumpin space,
Over the ocean on a holiday, across the universe if there was a way.
Don't you see the kind of shape I'm in,
How I look when I stumble in.
It's a little worse than the blues I get, But baby I've, discovered that,
I got a desperate love, I got a desperate love, Hang on for desperate love, for you.
Verse II:
Baby I can bring a melody, all you need to feel is harmony,
You might be looking for a groove I bet, but I can rock you forever and again,
Baby baby don't you feel the heat, don't you know I could change the beat. So don't you see the kind of man I am,
How I look when I stumble in,
It's a little worse than the plague I guess, But baby I 've discovered that,
I got a desperate love, I got a desperate love, I got a desperate love, for you.
Bridge:
Baby I don't know what you think,
Time for instant messaging,
And seconds going by never seemed like such a long time.
Verse III:
Repeats Verse I.
So don't you see the kind of man I am, how I look when I hold it in,
It's little worse than a heart attack, But baby I've discovered that,
I got a desperate love, I got a desperate love,
Hang on for desperate love, for you.
Hang on for Desperate Love.
Desperate love....
Hang on for Desperate love......
Hold on to the Night
Verse I:
You've been searching everywhere, hoping someone will shine through, Let me say I'm the chosen one, so don't be fooled.
Chorus:
Put your fears aside, I know a place to hide,
Baby it's alright, just hold onto the night.
Verse II:
I understand you well enough, everything you mean,
When you talk about giving up, and I send guarantees.
Chorus:
Bridge:
We breathed life into a thousand schemes, who cares, they all fell through, Now we're drifting down another stream, it's all that we can do.
Chorus:
Verse III:
You come stepping through the door, to the beat of a different drum, It's the rhythm we move to, when we go one on one.
Chorus:
Verse I:
You can drive in your limousine, Right to the latest scene,
Buy all your friends, a round of drinks, Including the man of your dreams, But it never seems to happen that way, No it never happens that way
Chorus:
Cause money's only money, Money's only money, Money, money, money, money, Won't buy this heart of gold.
