GRAB MY STICK AND SHIFT MY GEARS

Verse 1
For too long now
You’ve been too cool
I ain’t going
To be your fool
If you don’t change
It’ll end in tears
So grab my stick
And shift my gears

Verse 2
You keep saying
I gotta wait
Baby it’s getting
Much too late
I can’t waste
Another year
So grab my stick
And shift my gears

Verse 3
Now you’re learning
And real fast
Go slow now
Make it last
Like a lion
I got no fears
So grab my stick
And shift my gears

GREAT EXPECTATIONS

Great Expectations
Other secretive kind
Only you and I know
What is on my mind
Great Expectations
Bring me to your door
Infatuations
Bring me back for more

Chorus
And its
All too hot
All too hard
Always wanted to last
But it goes too fast

Great Expectations
Of a carnel kind
Only you and I know
Of the ties that bind
Great expectations
Take me to your side
Infatuation
Got no place to hide

HARD DAYS

Hard days
Soft nights
They’re wrong
We are right

Sweet dreams
Salt tears
Cried for
Wasted years

Hard times
Soft heads
Night time
In our beds

Swanlike
You glide you shine
They hide

Hard choice
Soft lies
I see
In your eyes

No more
Boys games
We know
Your names

HERE COMES THE RAIN

I can't stand the heartache
I can't take the pain
Whenever you walk out the door
Here comes the rain

Don't want you to leave me
Don't want you to go
But why can't I tell you
That I love you so

How long have I known you
Kissed your smiling face
How long have you been coming
Round to my place

I see you on the bridge
Walking to my place
I can't wait to see you
Hold your happy face

So why can't I tell you
I've failed yet again
I know that I love you
Here comes the rain

HERES TO THE HOPE

Verse 1
Heres to the hope
Heres to the happiness
Heres to the love
With us tonight
I’ve travelled far
In search of happiness
I found my true love
With you tonight

Verse 2
Heres to the heart
Heres to the soft caress
Heres to the love
That’s with us tonight
We’ve travelled far
Far from the loneliness
We’ve found a true love
Right here tonight

Verse 3
Heres to the dream
Heres to the gentleness
Heres to the love
That’s with us tonight
Look into my eyes
See the tenderness
Here together
All through the night

HERO FOR TONIGHT

We go
To the right places
We eat
Where we should eat
We talk
Like heads on TV
We are
Where we should be
But in all the busy places
We never get it right
Let me come home with you
Be your hero for tonight

We dance
Like Fred and Ginger
We never
Shout or scream
We kiss
And we linger
We never
Make a scene
But in all the busy places
We never get it right
Let me come home with you
Be your hero for tonight

Of all
The lonely places
Of all
The troubles I have known
Of all
The things that I covet
I want
You for my own
But in all the busy places
We never get it right
Let me come home with you
Be your hero for tonight

HI MR D.J.

Verse 1
Hi Mr D.J.
Play that song for me
Play for me today
And for tomorrow
Hi Mr D.J.
Play that song for me
Take my mind away
I don’t need it
All I need tonight
Is my lover by my side
I’ve got no place to hide
But still I want her
Hi Mr D.J.
Light the sky for me
Help me to be free
Let me walk upon the sea
Until I cry out
Hi Mr D.J.
Open up your arms
I’ll hide in your charms
But you don’t see me
So take me like a tourist
Through imag’ry of time
To the corners of my mind
Show me how to find
Your true meaning
Hi Mr D.J.
Go and cast your spell
Make me wise and well
Won’t you please just tell
Me who I am now
Then casting off the shackles
Of every boring day
Please take me away
Teach me how to play
Like I see you
Hi Mr D.J.
You are my only friend
My friend to the end
A friend to the end
Never leave me

HOLD ME

By light of stars
The love of ours
Will grow and will grow
By light of flame
We play our game
And you will never go

Chorus

Hold on
Need me
Say you’ll never leave me
Won’t you
Tell me
That you’ll never go

In the storm
We made our home
Warm and bright
In pouring rain
We’ll lose our pain
And I will never go

Across the years
We’ll lose our fears
Our love will only grow
The things we share
And how we care
Only we will know

HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS

Verse 1
Home is where the heart is
And you make my home
Every day
Every way
You make me your own

Verse 2
Home is where the heart is
And I love you so
Every day
Every way
We build on what we know

Verse 3
Home is where the heart is
And you own my heart
Every day
And every way
We make a new start

Verse 4
Home is where the heart is
And I love you strong
Every day
And every way
We’ll keep on getting on

I BURN LIKE A FLAME

Chorus
I burn like a flame
When I hear your name
Don’t you see
It isn’t a game

Verse 1
You

You are the only one for me
You are the only one I see
You are light
You are day
So please don’t
Run away
From me

Chorus

Verse 2
Me
I’m like a moth in the sun
My love for you has just begun
You can call
I can come
Please just stay
Don’t run
From me
