1. LANDSLIDE OF LOVE

Landslide of love
Tonight to stars are shining
But inside I feel I'm dying
And there's no whisper in the wind
In my room I'm all alone
Waiting on the telephone
But I know it ain't gonna ring
That ain't the way it's meant to be
Every hour so long and empty
But I know that it ain't everything
Landslide of love you thrill me
Landslide of love you could kill me
Landslide you hit me from above
Landslide of love you keep calling
Landslide of love I keep falling
But I can never get enough
Landslide of love
A thousand times I've spared a thought
To all those whose hearts are torn
But it's so far way from home
Right until the bitter end
Who believes it would fall on them
'Till it cuts you to the very bone
Tragedy ain't for me
I was born to be free
But there's no escaping these chains
These chains of love
That will defy me
Like a power from above
These chains of love
Landslide of love you thrill me
Landslide of love you could kill me
Landslide you hit me from above
Landslide of love you keep calling
Landslide of love I keep falling
But I can never get enough
Landslide of love
Of love.


2. W11 BLUES

It was eight o'clock one night and I'm walking down the line
Heading for The Grove to meet some friends of mine.
Then out of a doorway comes these two bad talking guys
They say "Hey there white girl" and take me to one side.
My heart it was a pounding cause they caught me with a fright
The streetlight was a burning as I looked into their eyes
Well a thousand times I've walked these streets so I wasn't too surprised
When they said we got some stuff that you might like to buy.
I said I've got no money and even if I did
I wouldn't go a spending it on some old dustbin lid
Then just at that moment a cop's car passed us by
I could see the faces in it out of the corner of my eye.
The streetlight guys are grinning as the cop lined on ahead
The time to leave was now "Goodbye" is what I said
And they just smiled and sighed "We may see you again."
Now I just strode on down the line to Grove to meet my friends.
Left out of All Saints across Portobello Road
Underneath the Westway and into Ladbroke Grove.
Up two flights of stairs into a darkened hall
Click my heels count to three as smoke creeps out the door.
I rap upon it once and then I rap again
A voice says "Hi, hello, come in and meet my friends."
So I take a step inside say "Hey, how you doing?"
But I didn't shake again 'cause I already knew it.
There's Tone Loc on the player singing Funky Cold Medina
I mentioned that I saw her when she looked a bit like Neneh - Cherry that is.
But I don't want to spill that wine and the hour it's getting late
So I just say goodbye let's make another date.
Bye bye boys. Bye bye.
I click my heels count to four and stroll right out the door.
Now I fall out of the hallway back onto the street
Jump in a passing cab oh it takes me home to sleep.
I pay the taxi man and go inside my flat
Click my heels count to five and fall over the cat.
Switch the TV on to watch LA Law
The bell begins to ring oh the cops are at my door
But they don't wait for me to open it they just bust it in
Push my face into the floor and ask me where I been.
Well I been sweating all summer and slaving like a dog
Got blisters in my throat and my legs feel like wood
But that's another story I'll tell another time
But what i want to know right now is what's in store tonight.
The next thing that I know I'm in the station cell
Oh they've taken most of my clothes and they took my bag as well
The bed stinks of piss so I lie down on the floor
The only thing I smell is the smoke creepin in beneath my door.


3. HARDTIME

Everytime I see you
I always hope you've changed
But I should've know better
You are always still the same

Hardtime
You give me such a hardtime
Hardtime
You give me such a hardtime

I don't know why I bother
I dont know why I try
This is the last time ever
I hope you've realised

Hardtime
You give me such a hardtime
Hardtime
You give me such a hardtime

I'll disappear tomorrow
And I've all I got to say is
You were ?
But let me slip away

Hardtime
You give me such a hardtime
Hardtime
You give me such a hardtime
Hardtime
You give me such a hardtime
Hardtime
You give me such a hardtime...


4. HE'S THE ONLY ONE FOR ME

I don't know what's gonna come
I just wanna see my baby run
Into my arms, my arms tonight
I don't mind if people stare
'Cause he's all mine and I don't care

He's the only one
Only one for me
He's the only one
Only one for me

I'd never fought(?) the clothes he wears
And I'd never change the style of his hair
I couldn't change anything

You keep saying he talks much too much
But I would say it's never enough

He's the only one
Only one for me
He's the only one
Only one for me
He's the only one
Only one for me

Sometimes he might act like a child
He's just having fun, if that's too wild
Well he's just not for you

I could try to make him tame
But then he just wouldnt be the same

He's the only one
Only one for me
He's the only one
Only one for me
He's the only one
Only one for me
He's the only one
Only one for me

I know people say they think its cool
But I now really gotta disaprove
Say what you like i won't be sore
'Cause he's the only boy worth living for

Yeah he's the only one

I know sometimes you can seen him as five (??????)
But it always works out right
I didn't say anybody was perfect
'Cause when he's standing close to me
I don't care what you might see

'Cause he's the only
One only one for me
He's the only one
Only one for me...
