FOUR-LETTER WORD
She was waiting alone at the station praying for her train to arrive
Thinking 'bout her destination, the tattered bag had all she had in life
She turned her back on her family, she turned her back on her friends
She turned her back on a married man when she took off that wedding band
She said, I'm giving up, silver clouds have turned to grey
Had enough, there's got to be a better way
Giving up, you know you've gotta walk
There's some things in life still worth fighting for
Chorus:
Ain't no big secret so forget all you heard
Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
For some it's for better, for some it's for worse
Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
Love aint' nothing
This time he said was the last time, last time he said just the same
In your heart you know that they'll be a next time
That your battered bones would have to explain
Givein' up, nothing's changing but the score
Had enough, every night love turns to war
Give it up, gave it all and wanted more
It ain't nothing worth dying for
Chorus:
It's no big secret so forget all you heard
Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
For some it's a blessing, for some it's a curse
Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
Love ain't nothing
Forget your mama's rosary beads to get you through this time of need
You know you gotta cross that line
You take it one day at a time
Had enough, the silver clouds all turning grey
I'm heading for a better day
Chorus:
No big secret so forget all you heard
Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
For some it's for better, for some it's for worse
Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
Love aint' nothing (it ain't nothing now, baby)
Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
Love ain't nothing (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
Love ain't nothing
Love ain't nothing but a four-letter word
GOTTA HAVE A REASON
Here we stand, caught between the cradle and the grave
In a world that gives you nothing but your name
With every step you take you must be brave
Nothing lost is nothing gained
And I know lives are lost for crowns and kings
We all know love is lost for lesser things
And the angels here have broken wings
Though I know somewhere a choir sings
Chorus:
You gotta have a reason
A reason to believe
A reason just to dream
Sometimes it takes blind eyes to see
A reason to believe
A hot-headed hero, here you see I'm just a man
Comes a time, a time to make a stand
So here I am with heart in hand
Don't be afraid to understand
Chorus:
You gotta have a reason
One reason to believe
A reason just to dream
Sometimes it takes blind eyes to see
A reason to believe in trust,
I believe in faith
I believe in us
'Til my dying day
You gotta have a reason
You gotta have a reason
If all we've got is you and me
Then what we've got is all we need
Chorus:
You gotta have as reason
One reason to believe
A reason just to dream
But sometimes it takes blind eyes to see
One reason
You gotta have a reason
One reason to believe
A reason just to dream
But sometimes it takes blind eyes to see
One reason
Gotta have a reason
Gotta have a reason
One reason to believe
A reason just to dream
STARTING ALL OVER AGAIN
I've been waiting, standing in the dark for hours
Tryin' to find the faith and the power to get back home to you
It's been a long time, long time since I've seen your face
On and on I could not replace the fire that burns for you
So here's to the good times, here's to the bad
Here's to the memories that we all had
Here's to tomorrow, let yesterday pass us by
Chorus:
Tonight we'll be starting all over again
And it feels like the first time
I'll never feel this way again
Starting all over again
Do you remember, remember the odds we were given
When we had nothing and we thought that was living
It's been such a long, long road
Here's to our old friend who helps us get by
Here's to the dreamers, may dreams never die
If we believe we can all keep the good times alive
Chorus:
Tonight we'll be starting all over again
It's like starting all over again
Chorus:
Tonight we'll be starting all over again
It feels like the first time
I'll never feel this way again
Whoa, tonight we'll be starting all over again
And it feels like the first time
I know whenever we're together my friends
It's like starting all over again
I been waiting, standing in the dark for hours
Trying to find the faith and the power to start it all over again
EVERY BEAT OF MY HEART
As a hard rain beats down in the night it sounds like applause
Still I can't hear a sound with the beat of my heart
I can't pick up that phone anymore and I need to confess
If I don't say 'I love you' everything else is a waste of my breathe
Every beat of my heart I would give
Every beat of my heart just to live
To live for your love, if all that I want
Is to die in your arms
I'd give you every beat of my heart
As I whisper your name I wish you were here by my side
And the only way that I find you is when I close my eyes
(With my ring on your finger I hope and I pray)
That you know deep in your soul with every step that you take
It's the little things that you do that make me want you more
It's the way your hands are trembling but what they trembling for?
It's the way the smile fits on your lips
The way you hold me tight
God knows I'd give everything to be in your arms tonight
ALL I WANNA DO IS YOU
Working hard eight days a week
Most days we got no time to speak
I feel like I'm chasing after my own life
Girl can't you see you're my only vice
Take the phone off the hook
Turn the lights down low
We'll play some old Sam Cooke
Baby, let yourself go
Chorus:
All I wanna do is you
All I wanna do is you
I'll do anything you want me to
All I wanna do is you
I don't care what kinda clothes you wear
It doesn't matter how you do your hear
I don't need no champagne on ice
Girl, can't you see that you're my only vice
Turn the whole world off
Keep your high heels on
Take it nice and slow
And make it last 'til dawn
Chorus:
All I wanna do is you
All I wanna do is you
I'll do anything you want me to
All I wanna do is you
I don't wanna eat
I don't wanna sleep
Don't wanna sit around and watch TV
When you're next to me it's where I wanna be
All I wanna, all I wanna, all I wanna do
All I wanna do is you
All I wanna do is you
I'll do anything you want me to
All I wanna do is you
(Repeat)
CRAZY LOVE
The city sounds like a symphony
A cabbie screams obscenities
The horns are honking jazz in the night
Her street is lit like a Christmas tree
This place is my amphetamine
She junks me but it's alright
In her summer dress she parts the sea
Her hair wrapped up in rosary beads
Everyone else is gone but her and me
Chorus:
Here she comes, it's crazy love
Here it comes again
That crazy thing called love
Here she comes, it's crazy love
Here it comes again
Sitting on my stoop
I lit one up and put the ashes in my coffee cup
And watched the world passing me by
Throw a coat of paint on this rusty heart
Ain't it funny how life imitates art
Saint Valentine he's got bloody knees tonight
But when she's walking down the street
The sidewalk's there to kiss her feet
Chorus:
Here she comes, it's crazy love
Here it comes again
That crazy thing called love
Here she comes, it's crazy love
Here it comes again
She needs me, pleads me
Wraps me in her loving charms
She'll tease me, squeeze me
But I'm the man when I'm in her arms
Now the angels sing a melody
That they wrote for her explicitly
That no one hears but her and me
Now wait a minute wait I can't believe my eyes
Who's that coming around the corner?
Ay, she's lookin' fine ain't she? get out the way!
No, no, no get out the way look at those high heel sneakers
Chorus:
Here she comes, it's crazy love
Here it comes again
That crazy thing called love
Here she comes, it's crazy love
That crazy thing called love
LAST CHANCE TRAIN
October leaves are falling, so am I
A harvest moon is calling me and I know why
The traffic's like a symphony in blue
In the autumn air I smell your sweet perfume
I miss you sitting cross-legged in this empty room
Yesterdays are eating me alive
I'm your angel, baby - I've got broken wings
I can't walk, I can't run, I can't drop until you're next to me, so the only thing
Chorus:
You gotta meet me tonight
I'm on a last chance train
Leave a flower the station, I know my destination
Love bring me home again
You try to reach me but I've sailed away
You tried to read me but my words got in the way
The music's over but the dance has just begun
I wish that I could just get back to Baltimore
You know I'd scratch, I'd claw, I'd scream 'til I'm raw, just to fall down at your door
Chorus:
You gotta meet me tonight
I'm on a last chance train
Leave a flower at the station, I know my destination
Love bring me home again
Let the scarecrows laugh coming down the tracks
At the broken hearts that don't come back
'Cause the train has left the station with my pain
Let them forget my name, oh
I'm on a last chance train
Sitting here I smoke my nineteenth cigarette
Now all that's left are ashes, butts and my regrets
It's your taste that I just can't forget
You gotta meet me tonight
I'm on a last chance train
Let the scarecrows laugh coming down the tracks
At the broken hearts that don't come back
We'll be laughing at them, crying in the rain
It's you and I again, oh..
Chorus:
You gotta meet me tonight
I'm on a last chance train
Leave a flower at the station, I know my destination
Love bring me home again
I'm on a last chance train
It's gonna bring me home to you
Oh, the last chance train
This time I'm coming through, coming through
MISS FOURTH OF JULY
I used to live but now I survive
I used to believe but now it's just one day at a time
The circus is gone, it's all packed away
The clown's hat, the makeup's been packed in his case
Chorus:
So we wave goodbye to Miss Fourth of July
The queen of the roses has left us with nothing but thorns
Don't say we never tried, Miss Fourth of July
The stars that we reached for left us with nothing but dawn
I used to laugh but I've learned to cry
For I ain't too proud to let you see tears fall from these eyes
For all of my hopes, my heartaches and fears
For a night I just watched and you walked out of here
Chorus:
I just waved goodbye to Miss Fourth of July
The queen of the roses has left us with nothing but thorns
Don't say we never tried, Miss Fourth of July
The crown that we reached for left us with nothing
But your thorns left me wounded not unlike the truth
When innocence sang his last song
He'd tell me that it's all gone
Just look me in the eyes and say man, nothing at all
- solo -
I used to live, now I've learned to die
And I used to dream I used to dream
Chorus:
So now we wave goodbye to Miss Fourth of July
The queen of the roses has left us with nothing but thorns
Don't say we've never tried, Miss Fourth of July
The stars that we reached for, they've left us with nothing but dawn
Oh, yeah
Nothing but a heavy hit of heartbreak
A handful of blues..
Oh, yeah
REAL LIFE
I wish that life was like it is in the movies
'Cause the hero always gets his way
No matter how hard it gets on that dark lonely road
At the end he's got a smile on his face
But when they threw me out to the lions
No one saved me as I fell from your grace
And no one wrote me new lines for what I said wrong
What I did wrong I could not erase
Chorus:
This is real life
This is real love
This is real pain that much I'm sure of
These are real tears
These are real fears inside that I can't hide
I wish that I could be your white knight in armor
With an army just to bring you back home
But I'll admit I'm scared of dialing your number
Someone else is gonna answer the phone
Why can't it be like it is on TV?
When the orchestra plays and you come back to me
Chorus:
This is real life
This is real love
This is real pain that much I'm sure of
These are real tears
These are real fears inside I can't hide
This real life
This real love
These are real wounds I'm bleeding from
And I realize this real
I always thought that our love was a storybook tale
God knows that I never dreamed in the end it would fail
Chorus:
'Cause this is real life
This is real love
This is real pain that much I'm sure of
These are real tears
These are real fears inside, I can't hide
This real life
This is real love
These are real wounds I'm bleeding from
When I realize this real
