Rick Astley Album

(Michael McDonald)

I know that love could realign the phases of the moon
Yet it comes and goes like a wave of a stranger
And as we stumble for the truth we're caught in a web of lies
Is nothing worth a damn without the danger

We're lost in a world of illusive dreams
Where every story has a desperate ring

(Chorus) We got a right to happiness in the name of love
And though sometimes we may forget to give it all we possess
We gotta try for what we get in the name of love
And without pause or regret searching only for the best

We could see the light unfold right before our eyes
Blinded by the tears we get lost in the shadows

Oh but the heart is a wondrous thing
Surviving the thunder outlasting the rain

(Repeat chorus)

Oh but the heart is a wondrous thing
Surviving the thunder outlasting the rain

(Repeat chorus)

And we'll try in the name of love
And we'll try in the name of love

(Rick Astley/Rob Fisher) 

She's taken my time. 
Convince me she's fine.
But when she leaves I'm not so sure.
It's always the same. 
She's playing her game.
And when she goes I feel to blame.
Why won't she say she needs me?
I know she's not as strong as she seems.

Why don't I see her cry for help?
Why don't I feel her cry for help?
Why don't I hear her cry for help?

I wandered around
the streets of this town
trying to find sense of it all.
The rain on my face,
it covers the trace
of all the tears I'd had to waste.
Why must we hide emotions?
Why must we never break down and cry?

All that I need is to cry for help.
Somebody please hear me cry for help.
All I can do is cry for help.

No need to feel ashamed. Release the pain. Cry for help.

Cry for help is all I need.
All I need is a cry for help.
Cry for help is all I need.
All I need is a cry for help.

Why must we hide emotions?
Why can't we ever break down and cry?
All that I need is to cry for help. 
I will be there when you cry for help.
Why don't I hear her cry for help?

All that I need is to cry for help.
Somebody please hear me cry for help.
All I can do is cry for help.

All that I need is to cry for help.
I will be there when you cry for help.
Is it so hard to cry for help?

(Cry for help is all I need.) No need to feel ashamed.
(All I need is a cry for help.) Come on and release the pain.
(Cry for help is all I need.) Put your trust in me.
(All I need is a cry for help.) My love is gonna set you free.

(Rick Astley & Rob Fisher)

She comes home in the morning light
Tries to hide the secret of last night
Tells a tale of working late
Says the things she knows I hate

Why should I convince myself
That she loves me and no one else
Feels like time to break the chains
I wont be fooled again

Gonna take my time
Gonna take what's mine
I'm gonna move right out
Gonna take my time
Gonna keep my pride
Gonna move right out yeah

When we kiss there's no flame
But I believe I'm not to blame
When we touch its by mistake
Tenderness she just can't fake

Who does she think I am
To let her love another man
I won't take another day
I just refuse to stay

Gonna take my time
Gonna take what's mine
I'm gonna move right out
Gonna take my time
Gonna keep my pride
Gonna move right out

Gonna take my time
Gonna take what's mine
I'm gonna move right out
Gonna take my time
Gonna keep my pride
Gonna move right out yeah

Oh I love her I really care
The days so long when she's not there
But I believe it just aint right
To see her with someone else tonight

Hear me now

Gonna take my time
Gonna take what's mine
I'm gonna move right out
Gonna take my time
Gonna keep my pride
Gonna move right out

Gonna take my time
Gonna take what's mine
I'm gonna move right out
Gonna take my time
Gonna keep my pride

(Rick Astley & Mark King)

How can you turn and walk away
Leaving me here with things to say
How can you stand and watch me fall
Don't you feel no love at all

I only want to say to you
That it would break your Papa's heart
For him to hear the things you say
When we could make a brand new start

(Chorus)
Will you hold me in your arms or let me go
Cause I want to show the world how much I know
That I love you
And I only want to be with you

How do I know you'll always stay
You're changing your mind most every day
I'm telling you girl don't push too far no
Just who do you think you are

I only want to say to you
That it would break your Mama's heart
For her to hear the things you say
When we could make a brand new start

(Repeat chorus two times)

Oh I love you so

Are you ready, for a guy like me
Come on baby, I'm on bended knee
Are you ready to be loved by me again

I only want to say to you

That it would break my loving heart
For me to see the things you do
When we could make a brand new start
Yes we could make a brand new start

(Rick Astley & Mark King)

Here we are
Riding high
We've some so far
We can touch the sky

So why can't we live together
Can't we be friends
Why must we fight our brothers
Til the bitter end

(Chorus)
We really got a problem
We don't know how to fix yeah
There ain't no reason for staying
We just can't do it

Talk to me
Scream and shout
Trust in me
We can work it out

We all know the world keeps turning
One day at a time
Easier lessons for leaving
We just couldn't find

(Repeat chorus)

So why can't we live together
Can't we be friends
Why must we fight our brothers
Til the bitter end

Ooh yeah
Won't you trust in me
I know we can make it yeah

I close my eyes and look inside
For a picture of how it should be
And I wonder if you could see what I see

Would you ever choose to live the way you do

We really got a problem
We don't know how to fix b'dum yeah
There aint no reason for staying
We just can't do it

We really got a problem
We don't know how to fix b'dum yeah
I know we got the pieces
But they just don't fit

We really got a problem
We don't know how to fix
I know we got the pieces

(Rick Astley)

There are times when a woman makes you laugh and cry
Nobody knows when she is telling lies
I just want to hear the truth from you
So don't play those games you always do

You don't have to hide the way you feel
Tell me if your love for me is real

(Chorus)
Is this really love
Is this the real thing
Is this really love
Can it be the right thing

I was born in a prison there was no way out
If you want to be heard you got to scream and shout
You don't know the kind of mess I'm in
Nobody else is going to save my skin but

You have got the key to set me free
If you want my love then rescue me

(Repeat chorus two times)

You don't have to hide the way you feel
Tell me if your love for me is real

(Jon Lind, Jeffrey Cohen & Nicky Brown)

When I was much younger
It used to happen every night
I had a dream about a city dressed in lights
And there were friends of mine
I saw them time after time
But I never knew their names
And darling I swear
I saw you there
I know it sounds insane

Sweet dreams of a child forgotten so easy
I needed your smile to bring it all back to me
I see all of my life as the road that brought me here
Must be something went right
I just know when you're near

(Chorus)
This must be heaven
Have I found it what I've been looking for
This must be heaven
Have I finally stumbled through the door

How could I have doubted
I guess I must have lost my place
You turned on the light
And I saw my life
Reflected in your face

Sweet dreams of a child forgotten so easy oh yeah
I needed your smile to bring it all back to me
I see all of my life as the road that brought me here
Must be something went right
I just know when you're near

(Repeat chorus)
And I always knew that there was something more

Come closer to me now
You fill me up I'm overflowing
Come closer to me now
Come hold me tight and don't let go

(Repeat chorus)

You fill me up girl
You fill me up and I'm overflowing

This must be heaven
Have I found what I've been living for
This must be heaven
Have I finally stumbled through the door

This must be heaven
Have I found what I've been looking for
This must be heaven

(John Paul & Derek Bordeaux)

Your love is warm as a ray of sun
Touching me when the morning comes
So lucky am I to have you by my side
Forever

(Chorus)
Never knew love could feel this way
Never knew love could do this to me
Never knew love could feel this way
Never knew love could do this to me

Thought I had it all in the palm of my hand
Darkness had fallen on me and I didn't quite understand
Then came you you brightened up my days yeah
Forever

(Repeat chorus)

Oh I know
Never knew love never knew love

Could feel this way
Could do this to me
Could feel this way
Could do this to me
I never knew your love
Could do this to me
Could feel this way

(Rick Astley)

When we were out dancing the other night
You almost got me into another fight
You always want to prove you've got the touch, baby
To make all the other guys want you so much

But if you ever do that to me
Just one more time
I swear to you that I will blow
And baby that's

(Chorus)
The bottom line
The bottom line

If you really love me like you say
Wouldn't keep on hurting me this way
You always turn away when I call your name
And baby things just stay the same

So if you ever do that to me
Just one more time
I swear to you that I will blow
And baby that's

(Repeat chorus)

Here we go

You've got to believe it's over
You've got to believe it's true
You've got to believe it's over
And we're through

You've got to believe it's over
You've got to believe it's true
You've got to believe it's over
And we're through

The bottom line
The bottom line
The bottom line

All that you have ever done for me
Is show just how rotten life can be
But this has taught me one thing that's for sure yeah
I'll never let that girl back through my door

And if she ever does that to me
Just one more time
I swear to you that I will blow
And baby that's

(Repeat chorus two times)

I'd like to thank you all for coming this evening
All you people all you people out there
You're all beautiful

(Rick Astley)

When I come home a little late at night
And I crawl into my bed
I think of you and where you are tonight
And I wish you were here instead

I really want you to know that I'm the one
I'm never letting go
I swear I'll do the best I can to be
Your one and only man cause

(Chorus)
You light up my night and day
You bring on the sunshine
You make me feel good today
Yeah you wonderful you

When times are hard and nothing goes my way
And I wonder what to do
I think of you and all the things you say
You're the one that pulls me through

I really want you to know that I'm the one
I'm never letting go
I swear I'll do the best I can to be
Your true and only man cause

(Rick Astley)

(Chorus)
Behind the smile that I portray
I am saddened every day
My eyes are sore with endless nights of crying
I hope that you don't feel this way

My heart fills with tears when you pass me by
You won't look me in the eye
Don't you think that it's a crying shame
We must play these silly games

The pain in my heart that shows we're apart
Is growing stronger day by day

(Repeat chorus)

If you think that I have done you wrong
I won't try to change your mind
But try to think of the love that we once had
And maybe things won't seem so bad

The memories of those times are vivid in my mind
And yet they slip away as time goes on

Take me back tonight
Hold me close and tight
Forever I will be true

Behind the smiles that we portray
There is nothing hidden away
Our eyes are sore because we are crying

Written by Al Hodge, Leslie Duncan & Tony Cox

They set the wheels in motion Adam and Eve
The beginning of romance
He was a lonely man I do believe
So he thought he'd take a chance

I know just how he was feeling
He'd been advised not to fall
But when his senses were reeling
That man he wanted it all

Honey this is some kinda love
You are my sweet temptation
Honey this is some kinda some kinda love

Like a moth to a flame all you gotta do is call my name
I'll come running to you
I was a lonely man until you came
Life was black life was blue

Without a word being spoken
I saw you then I knew
Now my defences are broken
There's not a thing I can do

Honey this is some kinda love
You are my sweet temptation
Honey this is some kinda some kinda love oh baby
Honey this is some kinda love
We're just one step from heaven
Honey this is some kinda some kinda love

Oh girl there's a fire in my soul
I'm just burning for you
Oh girl I'm out of control
Tell me can you feel it too

I'm burning up I'm burning up
There's a fire in my soul
I'm burning up I'm burning up
For you

Honey this is some kinda love
You are my sweet temptation
Honey this is some kinda some kinda love 
Honey this is some kinda love
We're just one step from heaven
Honey this is some kinda some kinda love
