Lyrics

1. JOURNEY - STONE IN LOVE

Those crazy nights, I do remember in my youth
I do recall, those were the best times, most of all
In the heat with a blue jean girl
Burnin' love comes once in a lifetime
She found me singing by the rail road track
Took me home, we danced by moonlight

[Chorus]
Those summer nights are callin',
Stone in love
Can't help myself I'm fallin'
Stone in love

Old dusty roads, led to the river
Runnin' slow
She pulled me down, and in clover
We'd go 'round
In the heat with a blue jean girl
Burnin' love comes once in a lifetime
Oo the memories never fade away
Golden girl, I'll keep you forever.

[Chorus]


2. REO SPEEDWAGON - KEEP ON LOVING YOU

You should've seen by the look in my eyes, baby
There was somethin missin
You should've known by the tone of my voice, maybe
But you didn't listen
You played dead
But you never bled
Instead you lay still in the grass
All coiled up and hissin
And though I know all about those men
Still I don't remember
Cause it was us baby, way before then
And we're still together
And I meant, every word I said
When I said that I love you I meant
That I love you forever

[Chorus]
And I'm gonna keep on lovin you
Cause it's the only thing I wanna do
I don't wanna sleep
I just wanna keep on lovin you

[Solo]

And I meant every word I said
When I said that I love you I meant
That I love you forever

[Chorus]


3. BOSTON - SOMETHING ABOUT YOU

When I was younger I thought I could stand on my own
It wasn't easy, I stood like a man made of stone

But there was something about you
I want you to know
It brought a change over me
It's startin' to show
I've got this feelin' inside
Gotta have ya, have ya, ain't no good to hide

It isn't easy
To show what I'm feeling inside, girl
It isn't easy
I know, when you believe in a man like me

When I get angry I say things I don't wanna say
I really mean it, I don't want to leave you this way

I couldn't help my reaction
I want you to know
I lose control over you
I just wantcha to know
Got this feeling inside
Gotta have ya, have ya, ain't no good to hide

It isn't easy
To show what I'm feeling inside, girl
It isn't easy
I k now, when you believe in a man like me

But there was something about you
I want you to know
It brought a change over me
It's startin' to show
I got this feelin' inside, gotta have you, have you
Ain't no good to hide.

It isn't easy
To show what I'm feeling inside, girl
It isn't easy
I know, to believe in a man like me
Like me, can'tch see
I gotta gotta have you

But there was something about
Yeah there was something about you.


4. BLUE OYSTER CULT - BURNIN' FOR YOU

Home in the valley
Home in the city
Home isn't pretty
Ain't no home for me

Home in the darkness
Home on the highway
Home isn't my way
Home will never be

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I can't see no reason to put up a fight
I'm living for giving the devil his due

And I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you

Time is the essence
Time is the season
Time ain't no reason
Got no time to slow

Time everlasting
Time to play B-sides
Time ain't on my side
Time I'll never know

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I'm not the one to tell you what's wrong or what's right
I've seen suns that were freezin' and lives that were through

Well I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I can't see no reason to put up a fight
I'm living for giving the devil his due

And I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you


5. EUROPE - CARRIE

When light goes down, I see no reason
For you to cry. We've been through this before
In every time, in every season,
God knows I've tried
So please don't ask for more.

Can't you see it in my eyes
This might be our last goodbye

Carrie, Carrie, things they change my friend
Carrie, Carrie, maybe we'll meet again

I read your mind, with no intentions
Of being unkind, I wish I could explain
It all takes time, a whole lot of patience
If it's a crime, how come I feel no pain.


6. BONNIE TYLER - TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE HEART

(Turn around)
Every now and then
I get a little bit lonely
And you're never coming round

(Turn around)
Every now and then
I get a little bit tired
Of listening to the sound of my tears

(Turn around)
Every now and then
I get a little bit nervous
That the best of all the years have gone by

(Turn around)
Every now and then I get a little bit terrified
And then I see the look in your eyes
(Turn Around, bright eyes)
Every now and then I fall apart
(Turn Around, bright eyes)
Every now and then
I fall apart

(Turn around)
Every now and then
I get a little bit restless
And I dream of something wild
(Turn around)
Every now and then
I get a little bit helpless
And I'm lying like a child in your arms
(Turn around)
Every now and then
I get a little bit angry
And I know I've got to get out and cry
(Turn around)
Every now and then
I get a little bit terrified
But then I see the look in your eyes
(Turn Around, bright eyes)
Every now and then
I fall apart
Turn around, bright eyes
Every now and then
I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
'Cause we'll never be wrong
Together we can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
(All of the time)
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
(Forever's gonna start tonight)

Once upon a time
I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart

Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

[Instrumental Interlude]

(Turn Around, bright eyes)
(Turn Around, bright eyes)

(Turn around)
Every now and then
I know you'll never be the boy
You always wanted to be
(Turn around)
But every now and then
I know you'll always be the only boy
Who wanted me the way that I am
(Turn around)
Every now and then
I know there's no one in the universe
As magical and wondrous as you
(Turn around)
Every now and then
I know there's nothing any better
There's nothing that I just wouldn't do
(Turn Around, bright eyes)
Every now and then I fall apart
(Turn Around, bright eyes)
Every now and then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
'Cause we'll never be wrong
Together we can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
(All of the time)
I don't know what to do
I'm always in the dark
Living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
(Forever's gonna start tonight)

Once upon a time I was
I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart

Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

A total eclipse of the heart
A total eclipse of the heart
(Turn Around, bright eyes)
(Turn Around, bright eyes)
(Turn around)


7. MEAT LOAF - YOU TOOK THE WORDS RIGHT OUT OF MY MOUTH (HOT SUMMER NIGHT)

[Spoken]
(Boy) On a hot summer night,
would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?
(Girl) Will he offer me his mouth?
(Boy) Yes.
(Girl) Will he offer me his teeth?
(Boy) Yes.
(Girl) Will he offer me his jaws?
(Boy) Yes.
(Girl) Will he offer me his hunger?
(Boy) Yes.
(Girl) Again, will he offer me his hunger?
(Boy) Yes!
(Girl) And will he starve without me?
(Boy) Yes!
(Girl) And does he love me?
(Boy) Yes.
(Girl) Yes.
(Boy) On a hot summer night,
would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?
(Girl) Yes.
(Boy) I bet you say that to all the boys!

It was a hot summer night
And the beach was burning.
There was fog crawling over the sand.
When I listen to your heart
I hear the whole world turning.
I see the shooting stars falling
Through your trembling hands.

You were licking your lips
And your lipstick shining.
I was dying just to ask for a taste.
We were lying together in a silver lining
By the the light of the moon.
You know there's not another moment
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste.

You hold me so close that my knees grow weak.
But my soul is flying high above the ground.
I'm trying to speak but no matter what I do
I just can't seem to make any sound.

And then you took the words right out of my mouth.
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
And I swear it's true,
I was just about to say I love you.
And then you took the words right out of my mouth.
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
And I swear it's true,
I was just about to say I love you.

Now my body is shaking like a wave on the water
And I guess that I'm beginning to grin.
Oh we're finally alone and we can do what we want to.
The night is young
And Ain't no-one gonna know where you
No-one gonna know where you
No-one's gonna know where you've been.
You were licking your lips
And your lipstick shining.
I was dying just to ask for a taste.
We were lying together in a silver lining
By the the light of the moon.
You know there's not another moment
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste.

And then you took the words right out of my mouth.
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
And I swear it's true,
I was just about to say I love you.
And then you took the words right out of my mouth.
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
And I swear it's true,
I was just about to say I love you.


8. PATTI SMITH GROUP - BECAUSE THE NIGHT

Take me now baby here as I am
Hold me close, try and understand
Desire is hunger is the fire I breathe
Love is a banquet on which we feed

Come on now try and understand
The way I feel when I'm in your hands
Take my hand come undercover
They can't hurt you now,
Can't hurt you now, can't hurt you now
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to lust
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us

Have I doubt when I'm alone
Love is a ring, the telephone
Love is an angel disguised as lust
Here in our bed until the morning comes
Come on now try and understand
The way I feel under your command
Take my hand as the sun descends
They can't touch you now,
Can't touch you now, can't touch you now
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to lust
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us

With love we sleep
With doubt the vicious circle
Turns and burns
Without you I cannot live
Forgive, the yearning burning
I believe it's time, too real to feel
So touch me now, touch me now, touch me now
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to lust
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us

Because tonight there are two lovers
If we believe in the night we trust
Because tonight there are two lovers
Because the night belongs to lust
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us


9. HANOI ROCKS - DON'T YOU EVER LEAVE ME

The nights are wearing me down
And it's hard getting through the day
'Cause I need you right now
And right now you're so far away

I guess that I should have known
That I'd end up this way
But I swear I'll come home
And then nothing will drag me away

Don't you ever leave me, baby
Don't you ever leave me now
Don't you ever leave me, baby
If you leave me you will kill me now

Now that so much time has passed
I know that this love of ours will last forever
'Cause we feel it, keep it, hold it and believe it
You need me like I need you
I know you do, I'm sure you do

The lights are slowly going down
On Lexington Avenue
And me, I'm all alone feeling the tears
Falling down from my eyes

A subway train is passing by
Driving into the darkness
I jump inside 'cause I ain't got
Nowhere to sleep tonight

Don't you ever leave me, baby
Don't you ever leave me now
Don't you ever leave me, baby
If you leave me you will kill me now

I was forcing myself just to walk through the day
When all I really wanted to do was curl up in a corner and cry
Nothing had any meaning and I just think
Let's give it another day and see if anything happens
Then you came along like my own ray of sunshine
And made me feel warm, safe and alive again

Don't you ever leave me, baby
Don't you ever leave me now
Don't you ever leave me, baby
If you leave me you will kill me now

Don't you ever leave me, baby
Don't you ever leave me now
Don't you ever leave me, baby
If you leave me you will kill me now

Don't you ever leave me, baby
Don't you ever leave me, baby


10. TED NUGENT - WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL NIGHT

Hey, baby
Where you been all my life?
I said hey now, baby
Where you been all my life?
Well, I'm searching all over
Still ain't found me no wife
I said, I'm searching all over
Still ain't found me no wife

Oh, you naked women, running 'round in my head
I said, all you naked women, running 'round in my head
Lord, you'll just have to be there
Till I'm buried and dead
I said, Lord you'll just have to be there
Till I'm buried and dead

Hey, baby
Where you been all my life?
I've been searching all over
Still ain't found me no wife

Hey, baby
Where you been all my life?
I've been searching all over
Still ain't found me no wife

I said hey, baby
Where you been all my life?

I said hey, baby
Where you been all my life?

Hey, baby
Where you been all my life?

Hey, baby
Where you been all my life?

Hey, baby
Where you been all my life?

Hey, baby
Where you been all my life?


11. SURVIVOR - FEELS LIKE LOVE

I'm red-hot, higher than high
Getting some action on a midnight ride,
Feeling all right, this Saturday night,
Your touch ignites the fire
Driving my heel to the edge of desire
Feeling so right, it's Saturday night,
No more lonely nights searching for this feeling,
Lovelight's shining in your eyes

Girl it sure feels like love
I need every day
Yeah it sure feels like love
I've been waiting, so long waiting
And it feels like love.

I once thought love was for fools
For broken hearts and broken rules
I was so wrong, for so long
We're pulling over to the side of the road,
Decide if it's love or just an overload
Girl I need to know, ohh I gotta know
No more lonely nights searching for this feeling
Lovelight's burning in your eyes


12. HEART - HOW CAN I REFUSE

Wake me up with laughter, wrap me in your arms
This ain't no mornin' after, it's never been so warm
It didn't take so long for us to feel this way
Can a good thing last longer than a day?

Where do we take it now, now that we caught fire?
Will something greater grow out of this desire?
Should I drop my guard at the risk of being used?
The way you do those things to me, how can I refuse?

I could get addicted to your energy
The way you take me over, hmm, keep pullin' on me
Our hearts beat together, our timing is the same
Can I trust my feelings and save myself the pain?

Where do we take it now, now that we caught fire?
Will something greater grow out of this desire?
Should I drop my guard at the risk of being used?
The way you do those things to me, how can I refuse?

We could share the mystery and spare ourselves the misery
Discover it again every day, we could take love all the way

Where do we take it now, now that we caught fire?
Will something greater grow out of this desire?
Should I drop my guard at the risk of being used?
The way you do those things to me, how can I refuse?

How can I refuse you?
How can I refuse you?
How can I refuse you?


13. FIREHOUSE - LOVE OF A LIFETIME

I guess the time was right for us to say
We'd take our time and live our lives
Together day by day
We'll make a wish and send it on a prayer
We know our dreams will all come true
With love that we can share

With you I never wonder - will you be there for me?
With you I never wonder - you're the right one for me?
I finally found the love of a lifetime
A love to last my whole life through
I finally found the love of a lifetime
Forever in my heart
I finally found the love of a lifetime

With every kiss, our love is like brand-new
And every star up in the sky
Was made for me and you
Still we both know that the road is long
We know that we will be together
Because our love is strong

I finally found the love of a lifetime
A love to last my whole life through
I finally found the love of a lifetime
Forever in my heart
I finally found the love of a lifetime

Ooh, I finally found the love of a lifetime
A love to last my whole life through, ooh
I finally found the love of a lifetime
Forever in my heart
I finally found the love of a lifetime (I finally found the Love of a lifetime)
Love of a lifetime (I finally found the love of a lifetime)
I finally found the love (I finally found the love of a lifetime)
Ooh, forever in my heart
I finally found the love of a lifetime, ooh


14. WARRANT - SOMETIMES SHE CRIES

Mercy don't think she's pretty no more,
Starin' at the stars through her back screen door,
She tries and tries to make it all work out,
No matter what she does,
She's left standin' in the middle of doubt,
In a lonely night,
And in the pourin' rain,
You can count on me,

Sometimes she cries,
When she's alone at night,
Sometimes she weeps,
When she's feelin' cold and weak,
Sometimes the pain,
It just tears her up inside,
Sometimes she cries,
Ooh, I wonder why,

Mercy don't have a lover no more,
She plays with her pillow,
Stares at the bedroom floor,
Used to have a million,
They've come and gone,
No matter what she does,
She can't figure out what she's doin' wrong,
In a lonely night,
And in the pourin' rain,
You can count on me,

Sometimes she cries,
When she's alone at night,
Sometimes she weeps,
When she's feelin' cold and weak,
Sometimes the pain,
Oh, it tears her up inside,
Sometimes she cries,
Ooh, yeah

Livin', lovin', give it everything you've got,
After all the heartache,
Maybe give love just one more shot yeah,

In a lonely night,
And in the pourin' rain,
The only thing I really wanna know is why,

Sometimes she cries,
When she's alone at night,
Sometimes she weeps,
When she's feelin cold and weak,
Sometimes the pain,
Oh, it tears her up inside,
Sometimes she cries
Oooh, yeah, yeah, yeah.


15. CYNDI LAUPER - I DROVE ALL NIGHT

I had to escape
The city was sticky and cruel
Maybe I should have called you first
But I was dying to get to you
I was dreaming while I drove
The long straight road ahead, uh, huh

Could taste your sweet kisses
Your arms open wide
This fever for you is just burning me up inside

I drove all night to get to you
Is that alright
I drove all night
Crept in your room
Woke you from your sleep
To make love to you
Is that alright
I drove all night

What in this world
Keep us from tearing apart
No matter where I go I hear
The beating of your heart
I think about you
When the night is cold and dark
No one can move me
The way that you do
Nothing erases the feeling between me and you

I drove all night to get to you
Is that alright
I drove all night
Crept in your room
Woke you from your sleep
To make love to you
Is that alright
I drove all night

Could taste your sweet kisses
Your arms open wide
This fever for you is just burning me up inside

I drove all night to get to you
Is that alright
I drove all night
Crept in your room
Woke you from your sleep
To make love to you
I drove all night... to hold you tight


16. FM - LET LOVE BE THE LEADER

Oh woah oh

I thought I had it beat girl
I was wrapped up in my own sweet world
'Til I saw you on the street girl
Could I walk on by, should I give it a try?

Well you told me not to touch girl (touch girl)
I was looking for a touch too much
Maybe I'm pushing my luck girl
Should I make a play, would you turn me away?

Listen to your heartbeat, listen

17. SCANDAL - BEAT OF A HEART

The heat of the sun
Was a little too much today
Love on the wing
Flew so high it just melted away

So sweet on the run
So little time to make you see
What can’t be undone
Was maybe never meant to be

But sometimes a fool
Gets lucky and wins
Sometimes the innocent pay
For an old man’s sin

But when the amber light
Of daylight’s gone
All I wanna feel
Is the beat of a heart

The street that night
Had a little too much to say
And the look in your eyes
It was a little too far away

But sometimes a fool
Gets lucky and wins
Sometimes the innocent pay
For an old man’s sin
Sometimes a fool
Gets lucky and wins
Sometimes the innocent pay
For an old man’s sin

But when the amber light
Of daylight’s gone
All I wanna feel
Is the beat of a heart
Just a little life ticking away
The beat of a heart
You come take me far away (Musical Break)

Sometimes a fool
Gets lucky and wins
Sometimes the innocent pay
For an old man’s sin

But when the tears are dark
And we stand as one
All I wanna feel
And when the amber light
Of daylight’s gone
All I wanna hear
Is the beat of a heart
The beat of a heart
You come and take me far away


18. ALICE COOPER - HELL IS LIVING WITHOUT YOU

I can't find your face in a thousand masqueraders
You're hidden in the colors of a million other lost charades
In life's big parade
I'm the loneliest spectator
Cuz you're gone without a trace in a sea of faceless imitators
I can't take another night
Burning inside this
Hell is living without your love
Ain't nothing without your
Touch me
Heaven would be like hell
Is living without you
Try to walk away
When I see the time I've wasted
Starving at a feast
And all this wine I never tasted
On my lips Your memory has been stained
It is all in vain
Tell me who's to blame
I can't take another night
Burning inside this
Hell is living without your love
Ain't nothing without your
Touch me
Heaven would be like hell
Is living without you
Nights get longer and colder
I'm down begging to hold ya
On my own and I feel like hell
Is living without you
Nights get longer and colder
I'm down begging to hold ya
On my own and I feel like hell
Is living without you


19. QUIET RIOT - STAY WITH ME TONIGHT

Holdin' me close
On a hot summer night
Clothes are drippin' wet, babe
You feel so nice
Teach me, teach me darling
Teach me something new
Oh oh I wanna make love to you

We'll fit together
My hand in your glove
Little little girl
I need your woman's touch
My hot desire
Is runnin' away with me
Come on baby
Set it free

Stay with me tonight
Stay forever
Stay with me tonight
You'll discover
That this feeling's right
Like no other
Stay with me tonight

All my life
I dreamed of this
My satin sheets
And your satin dress
My hot desire
Is runnin' away with me
Come on baby
Set me free

Repeat Chorus

Oh oh oh
Oh

[Repeat Chorus]

Stay
Stay with me
Stay with me
Baby
G-g-g-g-get get
Closer closer closer
Closer to you

(Stay with me tonight)
Stay with me tonight
Oh oh oh

You don't need to hurry baby
On my satin sheets
Take off your satin dress

Too much to handle
