Wet Wet Wet Album

Hey little fella, get your show together
I was listening in before
Now I don't care no more

Look around now (look around now)
It's always that it's gonna get me down
It's only begun

One look is all it took
I remember that sweet surrender
I recall, do you
That sweet surrender

Sweet surrender

My determination
Came creeping across the nation
Sure mistake for anyone
So you can't take home everyone
Cause it's only just begun

One look is all it took
To remember that sweet surrender
I recall, do you
That sweet surrender

I don't know, I don't care
Cause I'm living without you baby
Even when I know what's going on
Yeah it only took, one look, one glance
To set my heart for romance
Do you believe my sweet surrender

My sweet surrender

Hey little fella, now your show's together
I never wanted you to listen before
So why should I walk out the door
Stick around now (stick around now)
And so the story goes on through the night
It's only begun

One look is all it took
I remember that sweet surrender
Do you recall, cause I do
My sweet surrender

I don't know, I don't care
Cause I'm living without you baby
Even when I know what's going on
Yeah all it takes, one look, one glance
To set my heart for romance
One look is all it took
My sweet surrender

That sweet surrender
One look is all it took to remember
(I don't know and I don't care)

Here I am
I want you to know that I understand
What it is you're giving me

I've got it all brand new

Here we are
Put up a show of hands
But I've got the feeling that
They don't know what they're gonna do

We don't live there no more
We've got the room on the second floor
Oh, we don't live there no more

Stay with me heartache so I can keep it right
Another day with the heartache
You know I can't stand the night

Think about the people in the foreign lands
Think about the dirty money in my hands
Think I know the reason why it doesn't work out right
Think of all the needy with a helping hand
Think of all the greedy people in our land
Think they know the reason why it doesn't work out right

I don't live there no more
I've got the suite on the penthouse floor
Oh, I don't live there no more

Stay with me heartache so I can keep it right
Another day with the heartache
You know I can't stand the night
Stay with me heartache so I can keep it right
Another day with the heartache
You know I can't stand the night

I don't live there no more
I've got the suite on the penthouse floor
Oh, I don't live there no more

See my pride
Been looking for it once or twice
Lost my pride
I'm really gonna make it right

I don't live there no more
I've got no room on the penthouse floor
Oh, I don't live there no more

Stay with me heartache so I can keep it right
Another day with the heartache
You know I can't stand the night
Stay with me heartache so I can keep it right
Another day with the heartache
You know I can't stand the night

I was born by the river
So I know where the river runs dry
I couldn't last forever

Accused just for living
But I know that the living was right
I couldn't last forever
Look at me making movies
Making living like I've never lived before

And the people wanting out of the river
Like a poor boy really should

Now I can sit and stand it
Like other people do
What you do for me I'll do for you, yeah

Now I can sit and stand it
Like other people do
What is blue for me, is blue for you

There's a man who I know
You know he's got a fist full of dirty dollars
And I know they won't last forever
Does he really know what people are saying
Always feeling sure what he is there saying
But the other's disappear he was alone

Now I can sit and stand it
Like other people do
What you do for me I'll do for you

Now I can sit and stand it
Like other people do
What is blue for me, is blue for you

I go back to the river
Cause I know where the river runs dry
I couldn't last forever
Take the night making movies
Like a villain never ever seen the night of day
Don't you know that I can't last forever

Now I can sit and stand it
Like other people do
What you do for me I'll do for you

Now I can sit and stand it
Like other people do
What is blue for me, is blue for you

Now I can sit and stand it
Like other people do
What is blue for me, is kind of blue for you, yeah

Hello I'm going down
You know I don't want to wear no pretty crown
Help people I'm going down

I live a perfect lie
All I ever want lies forgiven
Took away all of those chains and say
They broke away, they broke away

Do you lead a better life
Even when the sweet turns to bitter
Took away all of our chains and said
They broke away, they broke away

Walking round outer space
Knowing that you've had a taste
Walking round and out of place
And knowing what you're gonna do
To break down those chains
I can't tell you
Took away all of our chains and say
Broke away, they broke away

Got away with my ambition
Only if I want it
Only if I don't
Took away all of those chains and say
They broke away, they broke away

Walking round and out of place
Knowing that you've had a taste
Walking round out of place
Nothing what you're gonna do
To break out on me
I can't tell you
Took away all of your chains and say
They broke away, they broke away

And knowing what you're gonna do
To break down those chains
I can't tell you
Take away all of those chains and say
They broke away, they broke away

Where have you got to lately
Where are you going to be
And I thought about it yesterday now baby
It's in my cuts now baby
As deep as yours
And the scars from this are gonna last for ever
And ever

You've had it
What you're getting from me
You've had it
Now what's it going to be
You've had it
What you're getting from me
But all I wanna do is be with you

Now that you've got me baby
You're just as sharp as me
And I'm glad you've cut me off
Writing my lies on the back of your hand
Tearing me up and watching you land
Sitting your heart on the sofa with me

Come on up, hey little darling

That was the way when I first met you baby
You weren't right for me
I didn't really care
Act quite naturally

She said
Went on a boat going down by the river
Plenty more supplies
Seen a lot of planes going up in the air

Do you ever get the feeling
That you want to fly like a bird in the sky

Hey lucille, you'll be the talk of the town
Lucille hey, you'll be the talk of the town
She met a young man called johnnie
He played a little mean guitar

No matter how hard I try
I want to fly like a bird in the sky
I want to fly like a bird in the sky

I wish I could take time
I wish oh I wish so hard
I wish I could take time
I wish oh I wish so hard

Living the night, doing it wrong

It's a little lonely without you
The feeling was strong
The world was holding on
I want to be on my own

I wish I could take time
I wish oh I wish so hard
I wish I could take time
I wish oh I wish so hard

Won't you stay with me

Take from me what I take form you
You can take from me what I find in you

Come on, tell me, tell me, tell me

I wish I could take time
I wish oh I wish so hard
Hey, I wish I could take time
I wish oh I wish so hard

Say I can't get by without your love
Say I can't get by without your love

Say I can't get by without your love
Say I can't get by without your love

I wish I could take time
I wish oh I wish so hard
I wish I could take time
I wish oh I wish so hard

I wish I could take time
I wish oh I wish so hard

You might say
You don't love me
That might be right
Say that you wanted me
Say that you needed me
Say that you wanted me

And I said now hold me
Please hold me
Make this seem right
All through the night
I said hold me
Please hold me
Yes you can try just a little
For you to make it right

Holding on for so long
Gets me the keys to your heart

So let me take a little while
To tell you about heaven, heaven in my life
It could be a secret
It could be a lie
It's a case of holding on til I die

Now I said now hold me
Please hold me
Make this seem right
All through the night
And I said now hold me
Please hold me
Yes you can try just a little
For you to make it right

Holding on for so long
Gets me the keys to your heart
Holding on for so long
Gets me the keys to your heart

And I said now hold me
Please hold me
Yes you can try just a little
Please try just a little
Please try and you will see

Holding on for so long
Gets me the keys to your heart
Holding on for so long
Gets me the keys to your heart
You gotta give a little
To get the keys to your heart
Gets me the keys to your heart

Wake up Maggie I think I've got something to say to you
It's late September and I really should be back at school
I know I keep you amused
But I feel I'm being used
Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried any more

You led me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart and that's what really hurts

The morning sun when it's in your face really shows your age
But that don't worry me none, in my eyes you're everything
I laughed at all your jokes
My love you didn't need to coax
Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried any more

You led me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart and that's a pain I could do without

All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand
You turned into a lover and mother what a lover
You wore me out
All you did was wreck my bed
And in the morning kick me in the head
Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried any more

You led me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart I couldn't leave you if I tried

I suppose I could collect my books and get on back to school
Or steal my daddy's cue and make a living out of playing pool
Find myself a rock and roll band
That needs a helping hand
Oh Maggie I wish I'd never seen your face

You made a first class fool out of me
Now I'm as blind as a fool can be
You stole my heart but I love you anyway

Stop your pretending
Listen to what I've got to say
How your head's went away
Only here for a day
And that grave I just made
Is for me when I get paid

Won't you wait a while
Move to the blue
Sometimes people don't want to say
Old time dancers don't die that way
See that grave I've just made
It's for me when I get paid

Somebody's gotta hold back the river
Somebody like you

Do you love and surrender
Sometimes I don't feel I can remember
I think it's fair to mention
About the days when I get paid

Somebody's gotta hold back the river
Somebody like you
Somebody's gotta hold back the river
Somebody like you

I want a little loving
I told you all to listen
But you never liked what you heard
I take what I am given
This may sound absurd
I share a double vision
That started the transition

Hey where's jimmy jazz
Steady on the scale

I told you to listen
I told you all to listen

Somebody's gotta hold back the river
Somebody like you
Somebody's gotta hold back the river
Somebody like you

You know that somebody
You know that somebody
You know that somebody
But it ain't you
