A hot summer night fell like a net
I've gotta find my baby yet
I need you to soothe my head
Turn my blue heart to red

Doctor Doctor, gimme the news I got a
Bad case of lovin' you
No pill's gonna cure my ill I've got a
Bad case of lovin' you

A pretty face don't make no pretty heart
I learned that buddy from the start
You think I'm cute, a little bit shy
Mama, I ain't that kind of guy

Doctor Doctor, gimme the news I got a
Bad case of lovin' you
No pill's gonna cure my ill I got a
Bad case of lovin' you

I know you like it, you like it on top
Tell me mama, are you gonna stop?

You had me down twenty-one to zip
Smile of Judas on your lip
Shake my fist, knock on wood
I've got it bad, and I got it good

Doctor Doctor, gimme the news I've got a
Bad case of lovin' you
No pill's gonna cure my ill I got a
Bad case of lovin' you

She knows what to say, she knows what to do
Every move she makes, she makes just for you
She knows just how to change your mind
You think you've pinned her down
She's got you undersigned

She's too good to be true
They broke the mould, when they made you
She knows when to leave, she knows when to stay
When she takes her turn, she knows how to play
There's more, you haven't seen it all
You're going to have to learn to keep up with her

She's too good to be true
They broke the mould, when they made you
She's too good to be true
They broke the mould, when they made you

She knows just how to change your mind
You think you've pinned her down
She's got you undersigned
She's too good to be true
They broke the mould, when they made you
Too good to be true
They broke the mould, when they made you
She's too good to be true
Give credit where it's due

(Todd Rundgren)
We can't play this game anymore
But can we still be friends?
Things just can't go on like before
But can we still be friends?
We had something to learn
Now it's time for the wheel to turn
Grains of sand, one by one
Before you know, it's all gone
Let's admit we made a mistake
But can we still be friends?
Heartbreak's never easy to take
But can we still be friends?
It's a strange sad affair
Sometimes seems that we just don't care
Don't waste time feeling hurt
We've been through hell together
Dannana etc,
Can we still be friends
Can we still get together sometimes?
Hey babe, can we still go on?
We awoke from our dream,
Things are not always what they seem
Memories linger on
It's like a sweet, sad, old song
Dannana etc, Can we still be friends

We asked all our friends
Where would this desire lead?
Spoke to each other's hearts
Willed it not to be a dream
What would it take
But two in tune imaginations?
It was too late to pretend it wasn't real
When in walked love again
Cooler than you've ever seen
In walked love again
Showing us how it should be

We were sure, this time
That we knew where one another stood
Love runs it's own course
Too late to change it
If we could
Still questions came
Now we were faced with trusting danger
We caught the blame
Could we let each other go?

When in walked love again
Smiling like a lover can
In walked love again
There you are and here I am
In walked love again

My woman said: "can you take it? "
I said to her: "we can make it, yeah"
In walked love again
Cooler than you've ever seen
In walked love again
Showin' us how it should be
In walked love again
Smilin' like a lover can
In walked love again
There you are and here I am
In walked love again
Walkin' again
In walked love again
Walkin' again
In walked love again
Chasin' after you and me
In walked love again
Braver than our wildest dreams

Look around, my brother
There's a world at your command
You'd realize it
If you'd only lift your head up from your hands
Sail away from your troubles
Free as a bird up in the sky
Paradise is waiting in your mind

Ain't no use sat complaining
Woman, that life don't go our way
Idly wishing that tomorrow
Will come save us from today
Being tired of living with no money in your hand
Trying to find someone to understand

It's a mean ol' world
But it's up to us
To make it heaven, here and now

It's a mean ol' world
But it's up to us
To make it heaven, here and now

So come on, let's get together
Sharing in love and happiness
Dah etc, whooo etc

Yeah it's a mean ol' world
But it's up to us
To make it heaven, here and now

Whooo etc, dana dana etc

They were doing all right
They were doing o.k.
There were still questions
At the end of the day

Oh, but when they found out
All they wanted to know
Thought they knew each other
So well that they needed no more
Answers to questions
That they didn't even know
That's when the love stopped
That's when the love stopped
They can't figure it out
They were well on their way
Now they're heartbroken
They don't know what to say

Yeah it hapens to most of us
When we are young
You think you're in love
And your heart rules your tongue
Talking you into trouble
'til there's no where to run
That's when the love stops
Oohh oohh the love stops love stopped yeah that's when the love stops
Now they ain't even friends
Happens to most of us
When we are young
You think you're in love
And your heart rules your tongue
Talking you into trouble
'til there's no where to run
That's when the love stops
Oohh oohh
Yeah the love stop
Ed thats when love stops
Now they ain't even friends
That's when love stopped
Oh oh love stopped
Thats when love stops
Now they ain't even friends

Jealous, jealous, jealous, jealous,
Jealous, jealous,

When I see you with that guy
And he catches your pretty eye
You know it makes we want to die
And I'm left out to dry
You know it makes me want to feel
Jealous, jealous,
Jealous, jealous,

Don't you know that it makes me green
When I think about you and him
I'm just an end to all your means
And I'm torn apart at the seams
You know it makes me want to feel

Jealous, jealous,
Jealous, jealous,
When I see you with that guy
And he catches your pretty eye
You know it makes we want to die
Oh, and I'm left out to dry
You know it makes me want to feel
You know it makes me want to feel jealous, jealous,
Jealous, jealous,
Jealous, jealous,
Jealous, jealous,
Jealous, jealous,
Jealous, jealous,
Jealous, jealous,
Jealous, jealous,

(D Linde/ A Rush)

Well, I've been mistreated
Been lied to and cheated
Misused and abused
Like something that you throw away

First you fill me with thunder
Then you let me go under
You can run, you can hide
But you ain't gonna get away
Coz you're under suspicion
Of leaving the scene of a broken heart
Under suspicion
Of a hit and run love affair

You ain't got a conscience
And you made me the victim
Of a cruel and unusual crime
Now you're under suspicion
Under suspicion
Under suspicion
Under suspicion of a hit and run love affair
Hey yeah yeah
Whoo etc

No matter where you be going
I got ways of knowing
And somewhere down the line
You're gonna have to pay

Hey

Coz you're under suspicion
Of leaving the scene of a broken heart yeah
Under suspicion
Of a hit and run love affair

You ain't got a conscience
And you made me the victim
Of a cruel and unusual crime
Now you're under suspicion
Under suspicion
Under suspicion
Yeah under suspicion of a hit and run love affair
Yeah yeah yeah
Under suspicion
Under suspicion
Ain't got no where to run Coz you're under suspicion
Under suspicion
Under suspicion
Under suspicion
Of leavin' the scene of a broken heart
Under suspicion
Yeah under suspicion of a hit and run love affair

You are already dealing
In the terms I dream
Through all the chaos
You're my order in between
Possible sacrifices, darling
You've forseen
And when you please yourself
You end up pleasing me

Oh, woman you're wonderful
Woman you're wonderful

You make my heart start jumping
Show me mercy, please
You know I know
You're something extraordinary
I never have to ask you
Just how much you care
If I wait, I know you'll say
What I want to hear

Oh, woman you're wonderful
So wonderful

I should have guessed
That you are more than meets the eye
From every point of view
You more than qualify
When nothing I do
Seems to make me satisfied
I can rely on you
To take me by surprise

Oh, woman you're wonderful
So wonderful

You make my heart start jumping
Show me mercy, please
You know I know
You're something extraordinary
I never have to ask you
Just how much you care
If I wait, I know you'll say
What I want to hear

Oh, woman you're wonderful
Woman you're wonderful

Youre lonely can I see you
I hire a private red-eye rocket
But when I walk in here
You wanna go through all my pockets

Whats it take?
Mamma whats it take?

Ive known you all these years
And still you overhaul my letters
They dont confirm your fears
But when Im dead youll know me better

Whats it take?
Mamma whats it take?

My mistake was thinking I had it covered
I havent made the first move
Whats it take to get it through to you mamma?
What does it take to love you?

I take you out to dinner
You ask me why Im acting guilty
I thought Id backed a winner
This love affair is gonna kill me

Whats it take?


Mamma whats it take?

You say youre only teasing
I wanna try a new position
You wanna know the reason
Ive got a spanish inquisition

Whats it take?
Mamma whats it take?

My mistake was thinking I had it covered
I havent made the first move
Whats it take to get it through to you mamma?
What does it take to love you?

I wanna hear the gossip
You say I like a real ambition
I ask you if youve got it
You document my inhibitions

Whats it take?
Mamma whats it take?
Mamma whats it take?
Whats it take?

No haste, no pause, no rest
Girl remember to remember
Love wont take second best
Remember to remember
Heartache and pain wont last like your old habits do
Catch up with your past
Before it catches up with you

Your dreams are not what they were
Your heart danced to a different tune
I wont forget my word
I'll remember to remember too

Your pride will overlook your lesson when you fall
Leave no stone unturned, don't let it slip beyond recall

Love starts to last when you do the things that you neglected to
Forever haunting your past will blind you to the love you do

No haste, no pause, no rest
Girl remember to remember
Love wont take second best
Remember to remember
Heartache and pain wont last like your old habits do
Catch up with your past
Before it catches up with you

Your dreams are not what they were
Your heart danced to a different tune
I wont forget my word
I'll remember to remember too
