Knew you'd be a vision in white
How'd you get those pants so tight?
Don't know what you're doin'
But you must be livin' right

We got some places to see
I brought all the maps with me
So jump right in...Ain't no sin
Take a ride in my machine

City traffic movin' way too slow
Drop the pedal and go...go...go

Goin' ridin' on the freeway of love
Wind's against our back
Goin' ridin' on the freeway of love
In my pink cadillac
Goin' ridin' on the freeway of love
Wind's against our back
Ain't we ridin' on the freeway of love
In my pink Cadillac?

Never you mind the exit signs
We got lots of time
We can't quit 'til we get
To the other side

With the radio playin' our song
We keep rollin' on
Who knows how far a car can get
Before you think about slowin' on down

City traffic movin' way too slow
Drop the pedal and go...go...go


. . .


Like a warrior that fights
And wins the battle
I know the taste of victory

Though i went through some nights
Consumed by the shadows
And was crippled emotionally

Somehow I made it through the heartace
I escaped
I found my way out of the darkness, kept my faith
Kept my faith

And the river was deep I didn't falter
When the mountain was high
I still believed
When the valley was low
It didn't stop me
I knew you were waiting
Knew you were waiting for me

With and endless desire
I kept on searching
Sure in time our eyes would meet

And like the bridge is on fire
The hurt is over
One touch and you set me free

I don't regret a single moment
Looking back, when I think of all those disappointments
I just laugh, I just laugh

And the river was deep I didn't falter
When the mountain was high
I still believed
When the valley was low
It didn't stop me
I knew you were waiting
Knew you were waiting for me

So we were drawn together through destiny
I know this love we share was meant to be

I knew you were waiting
Knew you were waiting for me

And the river was deep I didn't falter
When the mountain was high
I still believed
When the valley was low
It didn't stop me
I knew you were waiting
Knew you were waiting for me

I read her letters
And I saw her picture
And I smelled her cheap perfume, hmm
It must have come from you

How could you touch her
Lay down beside her
Well, there just ain't no excuse
You shouldn't have been so loose

I saw the telephone bill
You must be out of your mind
If you think you can smooth it over
Then you're wasting your time

Well, I'm willing to forgive you but I can't forget
'Cause you really, really, really, really hurt me this time
And I guess I can go on although I must admit
I've been busy, busy, busy, busy thinkin' that I'm gonna mess around some time

You're such a liar
You took her and her children
Out for the afternoon
While I was sittin' waitin' on you

How could you do it
You should've been here with me
You just couldn't do it
You had to be in the streets, uh

Well, I heard through the grapevine
You've been messin' around
When you thought you were gettin' over
That's when my baby I found, oh...
Well, I'm willing to forgive you but I can't forget
'Cause you really, really, really, really hurt me this time (You really hurt me)
And I guess I can go on although I must admit
I've been busy, busy, busy, busy thinkin' that I'm gonna mess around some time

I gave my heart, gave my time
Gave my soul 'cause love was blind
I can't explain this poor excuse
Of a man of a boy who was born to lose

I paid the rent, washed your clothes
Cooked your food and I only God knows
Only God knows why I stay with you
I guess (Guess I) I'm in love

Well, I'm willing to forgive you but I can't forget
(Oh, baby, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love)
'Cause you really, really, really, really hurt me this time
(Ooh, you really hurt me this time, baby)
And I guess I can go on although I must admit (Although I must admit)
I've been busy, busy, busy, busy thinkin' that I'm gonna mess around some time
(I'm gonna mess around some time)

I gave my heart, gave my time
Gave my soul 'cause love was blind
I can't explain this poor excuse
Of a man of a boy who was born to lose

I paid the rent, I washed your clothes
Cooked your food and I only God knows
Only God knows why I stay with you
I guess (Guess I) I'm in love

Well, I'm willing to forgive you but I can't forget
'Cause you really, really, really, really hurt me this time
(Ooh, oh, baby, you hurt me, you hurt me)
And I guess I can go on although I must admit
I've been busy, busy, busy, busy thinkin' that I'm gonna mess around some time

I'm willing to forgive you but I can't forget
(I'm willin', I'm willin' and able)
'Cause you really, really, really, really hurt me this time

You can't be a no way but sweet and gentle

The world sweetest kind of surgery (Uh-huh)
So you'll be the doctor, boy, won't you be (Be)

Oh, I'm burnin' with the fever {Oh...oh...oh...}
The doctor said (What did he say)
To get some love (And)
And I'm so, I'm so, I'm so in love with you, baby
You know you better be listenin' to what the doctor said

I feel better now, I don't know how
We did it, but we did
Will you keep huggin' me and workin' in me
And don't you ever quit it (Ooh, boy)
So get out of bed the doctor said
‘Cause you're the cure I need
For anything that's wrong with me
I'm hangin' wit' you baby (Hang with me, baby)

The doctor's order said “Get some love” (Hang with me, baby)
Said you've been goin' without it long enough (Stay right in, hang with me, baby)

We've had a hard time
You and I
Life sent us through some changes
Oh, but somehow we got by

A winding road, a heavy load
Is nothing new, you see
We know that through the bad times
I'll have you and you'll have me

United together
I finally found the one
Who'll love me forever
We two have just become as one

If we just keep this love alive
As time goes on this joy we know
Can't help but grow inside

Some people spend a lifetime
Looking for that special need
I'm so glad my search is over
Darling, I'm so glad that we're

United together (United together)
I finally found the one (I finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever (Who'll love me forever)
We two have just become (We two have just become as one)

There's nothing we can't overcome
If you let me be your only one
There's nothing we can't overcome (Ooh, hoo, hoo)
If you let me be your one and only, one and only

Some people spend a lifetime
Looking for that special need
I'm so glad my search is over
Darling, I'm so glad that we're

United together (United together)
I finally found the one (I have finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever (Who will love me and stand by me forever)
We two have just become

United together (United together)
I finally found the one (I finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever (Who will love me and stand by me forever)
We two have just become (Ooh, yes, we have)
We two have just become (Oh, yes, we have)

United together (United together)
I finally found the one (I finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever (Who will love me, love me, love me)
We two have just become (We are, we are, we are)

United together (United together)
I finally found the one (Finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever (Who will love me forever)
We two have just become (Ooh, we two)

United together (United together)
I finally found the one (I finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever (Who will love me forever)
We two have just become (We two have just become)

United together (United together)
I finally found the one (I finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever (Oh, who will love me forever)
We two have just become

You walked in on the sly
Scopin' for love
In the crowd, I caught your eye
You can't hide your stuff

You came to catch
You thought I'd be naive and tame
You met your match
I beat you at your own game

(chorus)
Who's zoomin' who, take another look, tell me baby
Who's zoomin who...oh
Who's zoomin' who, now the fish jumped off the hook
Didn't I baby...Who's zoomin' who (repeat)

Guess you believed the world
Played by your rules
Here stands an experienced girl
Nobody's fool...

Don't speculate
you thought you had me covered, but
I've got your bait
You're bound to be my lover...oh
(chorus)

You think you're smooth
That you can pickand choose
When the time is right...
But, just look behind, you'll be surprised to find
I'm gonna make you mine tonight...oh
(chorus)

I gave you my heart
And I gave you my time
I gave you all of my money
Anything to keep you satisfy, yeah, yeah

But the one thing I didn't count on
Is that you would do me so bad
If there's one thing I know I love you for sure
I don't understand why did you treat me so bad

Honey (Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Honey baby (Honey baby)

Anything that your heart desires
And I didn't ask for one thing in return
I was there for you right down to the wire

So why'd you have to draw me, baby
You did everything again
And where it's comin' from, and I still can't let go
I'm losin' my hair and I don't understand

Uh
Check this out

All my friends have to ask if I’m shattered
I say the past is the past and it no longer matters
I’ve made my mind up, I can make it
I’ll be fine even if I got to fake it
I’ll keep survivin’, ooh

Another night without you
Another night, I know I can get through
Another night, it’s only
Another night, I won’t be lonely

Another night
Another night
Another night, it ain’t much
Another night without your touch

I used to search through the crowd to find you, huh
But I don’t feel like it now, so don’t look behind you, ooh
You better face it, I won’t be callin’
I hit my stride when the evening is fallin’
I’m gonna make it, oh

Another night without you, hey
Another night, I know I can get through
Another night, it’s only
Another night, I won’t be lonely

Another night
Another night
Another night, it ain’t much
Another night without your touch

And when my music is loud and the people are laughing
I’m gonna step on out, I won’t be down
Gonna stand my ground for just
Another night
Oh, yes, I am
Another night

You were fazin’ out, my sweet, and I knew it
You didn’t give a damn how I got through
But like you I have someone else too
Always there too keep me warm, no time for blue

I made my mind up, I can make it
I’ll be fine even if I got to fake it
I’ll keep survivin’, yes, I will

Another night without you
Another night, I know I can get through
Another night, it ain’t much
My man, I don’t need you to keep bringin’ me down, hey

Another night without you
Another night, I know I can get through
Another night, it’s only
Another night, it’s only

Another night, yeah, oh, yes, it is
(Another night)

(Another night)
I get so restless in my bed without you, boy
Oh, yes I do
(Another night)
And oh, I’m gonna make it now, yes, I am
You know that I am
(Another night)
There’ll stand no talkin’ at me, boy
No, no, no, no, no

It's an ever changing time
I see, that clock upon the wall
Well it don't bother me at all
It's an ever changing time

And me, ever changing time
Everything is going so much faster
It seems like I'm
Watching my life, and everything I do
Wonder if the dreams that I believed in
Still come true

Caught in between, it comes back to
You and me running out of time, I gotta find me a better understanding
Everything keeps forgetting whats mine, I gotta find me a way, less-demanding
And we're holding on so tight, together, all of our lives

And I, I had some big idea
So much of my life, still not completed
Hopes and Fears
Watching it change, into something new
Wondering it Im gonna find the answer, loving you

All of my life, it comes back to
You and me running out of time, I gotta find me a better understanding
Everything keeps forgetting whats mine, I gotta find me a way, less-demanding
And we're holding on so tight, together, all of our lives

I see, that clock upon the wall, well it dont bother me at all
It's a ever changing time
(2x)

All of my life, it comes back to
You and me running out of time, I gotta find me a better understanding
Everything keeps forgetting whats mine, I gotta find me a way, less-demanding
And we're holding on so tight, together
(/i)And we're gonna be alright(i), together, all of our lives

I see, that clock upon the wall, well it dont bother me at all
It's a ever changing time
(5x)

All this time
I couldn't shake your memory
And I never knew the
Sweetest love was the first

So what am I supposed
To do about this curse
Oh, baby, I've got you to blame
And I'm calling
Calling out your name

Oh, he was so fine
Jimmy Lee, oh, he was so fine
Jimmy, Jimmy Lee

(Jimmy Lee)
Jimmy, Jimmy Lee
(Jimmy Lee)

Find me rushing off
To school every morning
Never had a care
Acting crazy, always laughing
When I'm running
Cause I knew you'd meet me
When I got there

Stealing kisses in the hall
Before the first bell
You smelled so fine
Though we'd just met
I guess you knew me so well
You had the number to my heartline

(Maybe he knew his stuff)
Well, just between you and me
(Maybe you weren't enough)
He was the first one

(Maybe he'd seen enough)
He stole my heart
And he ran like a bandit
I don't understand it

Jimmy Lee, this one's for me
And I'll always remember
History, biology
And that magical December

Ooh, boy
Jimmy Lee, where can you be
If this song ever finds you
Won't you please explain to me
Why you left me behind you, yeah

(Jimmy Lee) Jimmy

On the average twice a week
I think I see you
On some avenue
Someone laughs or shakes his head
They way you used to
I guess I got myself a loose screw

I grew up and
Had my share of adventure
Well, I've had some fun
But you never need
To question my intentions
Cause each guy is just another rerun

(Maybe he knew his stuff)
Well, just between you and me
(Maybe you weren't enough)
He was the first one

(Maybe he'd seen enough)
He stole my heart
And he ran like a bandit
I don't understand it

Jimmy Lee, this one's for me
And I'll always remember
Hey, Lord, history, biology
And that magical December, ah hah

Jimmy Lee, where can you be
If this song ever finds you
Won't you please explain to me
Why you left me behind you
Oh, yeah

(Jimmy Lee) Jimmy, Jimmy
Jimmy Lee (Jimmy Lee)
(Jimmy Lee)

(Maybe he knew his stuff)
Well, just between you and me
(Maybe you weren't enough)
He was the first one

(Maybe he'd seen enough)
He stole my heart
And he ran like a bandit
I don't understand it, yeah

Jimmy Lee, this one's for me
And I'll always, always remember
History, biology
And that magical, oh, December

Jimmy Lee, where can you be
If this song ever finds you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Won't you please explain to me
Why you left me, oh, behind you

Jimmy Lee, this one's for me...

Looking out on the morning rain
I used to feel so uninspired
And when I knew I had to face another day
Lord, it made me feel so tired
Before the day I met you, life was so unkind
But you're the key to my peace of mind

Cause you make me feel,
you make me feel,
you make me feel like
A natural woman (woman)

When my soul was in the lost-and-found
You came along to claim it
I didn't know just what was wrong with me
'Til your kiss helped me name it
Now I'm no longer doubtful of what I'm living for
and if I make you happy I don't need to do more

Cause you make me feel,
you make me feel,
you make me feel like
A natural woman (woman)

Oh, baby, what you've done to me
You make me feel so good inside
And I just wanna be close to you
You make me feel so alive

You make me feel,
You make me feel,
You make me feel like
A natural woman (woman)

I Dreamed A Dream

[No lyrics]

. . .


I was born in a cross-fire hurricane
And I howled at my ma in the driving rain,
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right. I'm jumpin' jack flash,
It's a gas! gas! gas!

I was raised by a toothless, bearded hag,
I was schooled with a strap right across my back,
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right, I'm jumpin' jack flash,
It's a gas! gas! gas!

I was drowned, I was washed up and left for dead.
I fell down to my feet and I saw they bled.
I frowned at the crumbs of a crust of bread.
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I was crowned with a spike right thru my head.
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right, I'm jumpin' jack flash,
It's a gas! gas! gas!

Jumping jack flash, it's a gas
Jumping jack flash, it's a gas
Jumping jack flash, it's a gas
Jumping jack flash, it's a gas
Jumping jack flash
