Silent Partners

Background voices calling from a distance
See no evil, hear no evil
Static on the line of least resistance
Don't say nothing at all
Don't say nothing at all
Don't say nothing at all
I'm hanging on a wire, waitin' on the word
I'm never seen, you're never heard
The object of desire is seldom ever clear
I reach for you but all I hear
Are the background voices calling from a distance
Silent Partners, listen to the hush

A lover without words is easily deceived
And rumors easily believed
The matter of obsession is seldom ever clear
I turn around, you disappear
In background voices calling from a distance
Silent Partners, listen to the hush
Silent Partners
You know they don't say nothing at all

What about the things we never mention?
What about the things we never say?
Will we wind up targets of affection?
In silence, turning silent
The silent turn away

A paramour or less, is never really sure
Exactly what to listen for
In secret service to the things they never say
The Silent Partners fade away

To background voices, calling from a distance
Silent Partners, listen to the hush
Silent Partners
You know they don't say nothing at all

Hey baby, won't you sit down here next to me
Well I heard you're havin' trouble in love
Yeh, I know how that can be

Down at the River-O-Love

Hey Darlin', you know that love is strange
Seems the harder you try to hold on
The further it moves away
I know its hard to understand
But that's okay I got a plan
I know a place where you can find love
The kind you always dreamed of

Lets go down to the River-O-Love
Let me show you how sweet it can be
Down at the River-O-Love

One long sweet ride

Lets go down to the River-O-Love
Let me show you how sweet it can be
Down at the River-O-Love
Let the cool, clear water wash over you and me
in the River-O-Love
Lets go down to the River-O-Love
Let me drown in the River-O-Love
The River-O-Love

The Ooh-Ooh Song

Just when we think we conquered it
It seems we lose the fight again
But there's just no stoppin' it
It's like a bad dream that never ends
It puts up walls between us
That get harder, and harder, and harder, and harder, and harder
To remove
But we let it continue, like people in love always do
Ooh - Ooh
Ooh - Ooh
Ooh - Ooh

Lets not pretend that we're unique
'Cause everybody's tasted loves illusion
We try to hide the fact that we
Got lost between the choas and confusion
And the love we feel
Is gettin' deeper, and deeper, and deeper, and deeper, and deeper
By the minute

But we let it slip away
'Cause we don't know a good thing while we're in it

Ooh - Ooh
Ooh - Ooh
Ooh - Ooh

It´s a Little Too Late

I hear you had a good offer down on Third Avenue
You tell me that was the reason
For whatcha' put me through, Yeah
And now you come collapsin' back
I feel the heat of your attack
Want me to take you back
I'm givin' you the sack
So don't waste your time

It's a Little Too Little
It's a Little Too Late
I'm a Little Too Hurt
And there's nothin' left that I've gotta say
You can cry to me baby
But there's only so much I can take
Ah, it's a Little Too Little
It's a Little Too Late

You say you had a good time
But did ya' think it was for free - yeah
And how much did it get ya', all their flattery
And now you come back, runnin' for protection
You've been bitten by love and stung by rejection
You can't connect
What did you expect?
I'm still gettin' over you

I Need A Lover

I Need A Lover that won't drive me crazy
I Need A Lover that won't drive me mad
I Need A Lover that won't drive me crazy
I Need A Lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone to thrill me, and then go away
I Need A Lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone that knows the meaning of ah - Hey hit the highway

Well I've been walking the streets in the evening
Racing through this human jungle at night
I'm so confused, my mind is indifferent
Hey - I'm so weak, won't someone shut out that light
Electricity runs thru the video
And I watch from this hole I call home
And all the stonies that are dancin' to the radio
I got the world calling me tonight on the phone

I Need A Lover that won't drive me crazy
I Need A Lover that won't drive me mad
I Need A Lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone that knows the meaning of ah - Hey hit the highway

Well I'm not wiped out by this poolroom life I'm livin'
But I'm gonna quit my job, and go to school, and head back home
Now I'm not asking to be loved or be forgiven
Hey - I just can't face shakin' in this bedroom one more night alone

I Need A Lover that won't drive me crazy
I Need A Lover that won't drive me mad
I Need A Lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone that knows the meaning of ah - Hey hit the highway

I Need A Lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone to thrill me, and then go away
I Need A Lover that won't drive me crazy

I Need A Lover that won't drive me crazy
I Need A Lover that won't drive me mad
I Need A Lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone that knows the meaning of ah - Hey hit the highway

Here´s My Heart

Our two worlds met in strange surprise
I hid my love in thin disguise
I tried to leave, how could I stay?
What if my heart gave me away?
I always thought I'd be prepared
But love just caught me unaware
You said the words and I believed
I fell so hard, I fell so deep

Love can't hide, though it tries
Hearts catch fire, so has mine
Here's My Heart

So true love triumphs once again
It always makes it in the end
And if you let the heart run free
It will return faithfully

Love can't hide, though it tries
Hearts catch fire, all the time
Helpless love walks the line
Hearts catch fire, the hour is fine
Here's My Heart

Ooh, Ooh

Love can't hide, though it tries
Hearts catch fire, all the time
Helpless love walks the line
Hearts catch fire, so has mine

Here's My Heart
Here's My Heart
Here's My Heart
Here's My Heart

Ooh... Hey, Hey, Hey

Don´t Let It Show

If it's getting harder to face everyday
Don't Let It Show, Don't Let It Show
Though it's getting harder to take what they say
Just let it go, just let it go

And if it hurts when they mention my name
Say you don't know me
And if it helps when they say I'm to blame
Say you don't own me

ooh...

Even if it's taking the easy way out
Keep it inside of you
Don't give in
Don't tell them anything

Don't Let It
Don't Let It Show

Even though you know it's the wrong thing to say
Say you don't care, say you don't care
Even if you want to believe there's a way
I won't be there, I won't be there

But if you smile when they mention my name
They'll never know you
And if you laugh when they say I'm to blame
They'll never own you

ooh...

Even though you think you've got nothing to hide
Keep it inside of you
Don't give in
Don't tell them anything

Don't Let It
Don't Let It Show

Even though you think you've got nothing to hide
Keep it inside of you
Don't give in
Don't tell them anything

Don't Let It
Don't Let It Show

In a Crazy world Like This

Baby I forgot somethin', that's why I came home
It's somethin' I really need, I know you thought I was gone
No, it's not my gloves honey, it's not that cold today
It's nothin' I left behind, it's somethin' I got to say
I forgot to say I love you
And something else that I missed, to say how much I need you

In a Crazy, Crazy World Like This
It's easy to feel all alone
You give me the strength I need to exist
Just hold me and don't let me go
In a Crazy, Crazy World Like This

Sometimes I don't know lately, what will ease the pain?
On every corner of the street, sometimes it's all too insane
Baby you just got somethin', that's why I came home
It's somethin' I really need, an' now we can be alone

I just had to say I love you, and something else that I missed
To say how much I need you

It's easy to fear the unknown
I always know when fate gives a twist
You'll be there to soften the blow

In a Crazy, Crazy World Like This - Ooh, Ooh
You give me the strength I need to exist
Just hold me and don't let me go

In a Crazy, Crazy World Like This

Don´t Happen No More

Well there used to be a time when a man was a king
To work for a man was a woman's only dream
Everything he did was perfectly alright
He didn't have to worry about fussin' and fightin'
It Don't Happen No More
That was a long time ago
It's a pitiful shame
How the world has changed

There used to be a time when a woman couldn't smoke
There used to be a time when a woman couldn't vote
She used to stay at home while the man went out to play
She was satisfied with life any old way

It Don't Happen No More
That was a long time ago
It's a pitiful shame
How the world has changed
Well, well

There used to be a time when a woman couldn't cook
There used to be a time she didn't worry about her looks
She used to sip on Sassafrass, she didn't even drink
She didn't try to tell her man how to think

It Don't Happen No More
That was a long time ago
It's a pitiful shame
How the world has changed
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

It Don't Happen No More
That was a long time ago
It's a pitiful shame
How the world has changed

It Don't Happen No More
That was a long time ago
It's a pitiful shame

Evil Genious

They were so ecstatic when the letter arrived
A certified genius at the age of five
They planned his future so carefully
He was everything they hoped he'd be
He was a model child, a devoted son
Loved and admired by everyone
He played out every role, a "T.V. hero"
He lived his life in a video fantasy

He was good at school, never failed a grade
They gave him hopes and dreams, and taught him not to hate
He had rules he learned to break for fun
Now he's hidin', `cause his fingerprints on the gun

Why'd ya have to do it Evil Genius?
Was it justified in your mind?
Why'd ya put us through it Evil Genius?
Was it justified in your mind anytime you held a grudge?

Was it something said that pushed you over the line?
Your best interests were in our minds
You kept it so well hidden, we never knew
No one ever expected anything like this from you

Why'd ya have to do it Evil Genius?
Was it justified in your mind?
Why'd ya put us through it Evil Genius?
Was it justified in your mind anytime you held a grudge?

Why'd ya have to do it Evil Genius?
Was it justified in your mind?
Why'd ya put us through it Evil Genius?
Was it justified in your mind anytime you held a grudge?

Girl

Do you like the way it feels when you get hurt?
Maybe you should take a long hard look at your self-worth
There's an emptiness inside
It started many years ago
You always try to fill it up
It's a familiar place you go
One day you'll just have to wake up, girl

You know you got a lot to learn
You've got to do it for yourself
Find your own direction, don't rely on someone else
You got to know it in your heart
You've got to build it up with love, it isn't hard to rise above
Wake up, you don't wanna make up
You've got to do it for yourself

I know it feels sometimes that loneliness is worse
And with every change there comes a melancholy search
Now you can walk away from this
It doesn't have to bring you down
Have faith in destiny you what goes around, comes around
You don't have to stay and take it, girl

Got nowhere to run
Got nowhere to hide
These changes will come if you just open your eyes
Got nowhere to run
Got nowhere to hide

You gotta do it for yourself
You gotta know it in your heart
It isn't hard to rise above

I´m Gonna Follow You

I'm Gonna Follow You, `till I wear you down
I'm Gonna Follow You, `cause this here's my town
You don't know these streets the way that I do (I do, I do)
You can't turn it on and off the way that I do (I do, I do)
Ooo, Ooo...

I'm Gonna Follow You, `till I know your timing
You'll turn some corner soon, and find you can't get by me
You don't know these streets the way that I do (I do, I do)
You can't turn it on and off the way that I do (I do, I do)

You see yourself as some kind of lily of the valley
You come around here in your ballet slippers padding on my alley
And you know that you can't dance
Cause you know you never had the chance
I'm gonna dance for you!

Ooo, Ooo...
