PUT ME TO THE TEST (C & W)

Verse 1
I know that you’ve been hurt before
I hear that you have cried
But hold on to what’s dear to us
Our love hasn’t died
I know that you have been down before
I hear how they lied
But remember that I love you
I love you deep inside

Chorus
So put me to the test
Why don’t you
Put me to the test
Of all the guys
Who want you
You know that I’m the best

Verse 2
I know that I’ve got my faults
I know it in my soul
But just look at the love in me
You know you’ve got it all
I know the road is tough ahead
With many traps and turns
But just believe my love for you
It’s so hot that it burns

Chorus

You play with other boys
You think they are your toys
You never think of me

What you're doing to me
But I'm the one you need

Before it gets too late
I'm better than the rest
You know that I'm the best
But I'm the one you need …..Satisfaction guaranteed

SCHEMES

Dreams and schemes and days to come
No lost wishes left undone
Why should we walk when we can run
We've come today to have some fun
Hear me when I call to you
You know every word is true
We've got to start our lives anew
Don't fear what people say to you


CHORUS

Only believe
It will come true
Only believe
That I love you
Only believe
Like I do
And hold on tight to your dreams

Another day another dream
Each one dies so it seems
Children's laughter turns to screams
And I just run away
Hold me here tonight
What we have is right
No need to go no need to fight
Stay here till break of day

Sometimes I turn
And look at you
And I know
What I must do
All I want’s
To keep you warm

And I see you
I think of all
That we can do
All I want’s
To keep you warm

Some days I turn
And I see
The one who loves
Who loves me
All I want’s
To keep you warm
Give you shelter
From the storm

And you turn too
Do you know
How I love you
All I want’s
Too keep you warm
Give you shelter
From the storm

SHOW NO MERCY

Chorus
Show no mercy
Show no mercy to me
Show no mercy
But my eyes cannot see
Show no mercy
Show no mercy to me
Show no mercy
Can’t you just set me free

Loved you once
Long ago
In a land before time
Loved you hard
Don’t you know
You were once mine

Hold me darling
Like before
Hard against the wall
Hold me baby
Don’t you know
I can’t take it all

Verse 3
Loved me once
Long ago
In a land before time

Oh I know
You were once mine

SILENT STARLIGHT

Silent Starlight
Lights up our nights
Light of moon shines in your eyes
World revolving
Life revolving
See my world
In your eyes

Night birds calling
Starlight falling
Onto your shining hair
Pale cloud slipping
Old moon missing
Eyes of fire
In cold night air

Warmly squeezing
No one teasing
We walk inside to cool old sheets
No more talking
No more walking
Warm our world
In body heat

SILVER CUP

Verse 1
It only took
One little look
To see you were for me
I only see
You for me
Our love was meant to be

(Chorus)
Don’t settle for the silver cup
Never give up
This love is all ours
If we
Reach for the stars

Verse 2
I just felt
My heart melt
When you turned and smiled at me
I only see
You for me
Your love has set me free

SINGLE GIRLS

Single girls sit round the walls
Single girls don't have a ball
Single girls wait and they cry
Watching life just pass them

CHORUS

I am a single girl
And I want you
Better believe
No one else will do
I am a single girl
And I need you
Come to me
We'll get through


Single girls don't know what to do
Can they work 'n have families too
Single girls need a good time
Come to me you'll be mine


Single girls just follow me
I'll show you how to be free
Single girls go get your love
Take them near the stars above
Single girls rock and
Single girls roll
Single girls want to lose control
Single girls gotta have some fun
Come with me and we'll have some

SMILING THRU’ THE TEARS

Verse 1
Smiling thru’ the tears
Walking thru’ the years
Wishing that our/my love had not begun
Thinking of the time
Before you were mine
Thinking back to times of fun

Chorus
And it’s oh oh so easy now
To walk out the door
Just give me a reason
Why I should stay for more

Verse 2
Hiding ‘way the pain
Crying in the rain
Feeling too hurt to go home
Hurt so bad again
I don’t want the rain
I wanna live my life alone

Verse 3
You know that it’s true
I loved only you
Why did you take your love away
But each and every dawn
I’m afraid to find you gone
God please help me through the day
