1.Hold Me
You know that there's an achin' deep inside me
Tearin' me apart each lonely day
You can sooth my spirit with some of your lovin'
With you by my side we can make it ok
There's a way of love with you
And i'm seeing the glow
All i need is understandin' just to
Let me grow
I can't tell you now 'bout all of my reasons
Burdens of this life have me in a trance
You can help unlock my other secrets
Though your warm embrace i give the
Good life a chance
There's a way of love with you and i'm feelin' it flow
All i need is understandin' just to let me grow
Hold me - just a little tighter
'cause when you hold me - i don't have to fight it
I don't want to sound like i'm full of self pity
'cause that's not the way i want it to be
All i need for now is your love to forget her
Love so sweet completely settin' me free
There's a way of love with you
And i'm seeing the glow
All i need is understandin' just to
Let me grow
Hold me - just a little tighter
When you hold me - i don't have to fight it
2.Bright Lights
My nights were getting better
Without a lover
The feeling of peace i had
All by myself
Free to fill my space with
Things i really wanted
Giving no excuses i even had my own place
Had my own place
Those long nights
Those bright lights
Those carefree days
Those long nights
Those bright lights
I tell you i got it made
Never ever realized that i was lonely
'cause working on the road can be
It can be an escape
Dinner in a one night stop
Just meet me in the hall
Take a number in my black book
And promise to call, promise to call
Those long nights
Those bright lights
Those carefree days
Those long nights
Those bright lights
I tell you i got it made
Then i saw a bright face
Lit by a candle
Sitting in the bar alone
She filled the whole place
The magic of her presence
Who could walk up to her
Who would ever dare to give
This woman-child a chase
Thought my nights were getting better
Just living by myself
But i got hooked this time
Now we got our own place
We got our own place
Those long nights
Those bright lights
Those carefree days
Those long nights
Those bright lights
I tell you i got it made
And i love those long nights
3.What You Gonna Do About Me？
You been givin' them all of your crush
You got them standin' in line in a huff
You know they all want to share your sweet stuff
But what you gonna do about me
I'm the one you keep on runnin' to
After they've walked all over you
I'm the one who dries your lonely tears
So what you gonna do about me
Baby what you gonna do about the one who really loves you
What you gonna do 'bout the one who really cares
Sugar what you gonna do about the one who wants you only
How long do you think i can keep on waiting here
You get a charge gettin' your selfish heart broken
Seeking out that same kind of charm
When you gonna realize you're only a token
Don't want to cause no serious alarm
But when the pressure gets to more than you can bear
Pick up the phone 'cause you know i wait to hear
And when you need to have a little real fun
Just count on me to be the one
Baby what you gonna do about the one who really loves you
What you gonna do 'bout the one who really cares
Sugar what you gonna do about the one who wants you only
How long do you think i can keep on waitin' here
Let's get together, go out on the town
Go back to my place you can let your hair down
I got a few things i want to say to you
Oo - baby what you gonna do about me
Baby what you gonna do about the one who really loves you
What you gonna do 'bout the one who really cares
Sugar what you gonna do about the one who wants you only
Baby tell be what to do, tell me what you gonna do
4.Right Lane
I've been livin' in the right lane
Keepin' my speed a steady pace
I've been tryin' to do the best thing
Goin' a little slow, but staying in the race
Always believed i could get what i wanted
Even if it took a little while
Always believed i could take care of my brother
Do my thing with style
I've been livin' in the right lane
Sometimes arrive a little late
I've been tryin' to do the best thing
People tell me a shouldn't wait
There have been others travelin' the same road
Get just where they want to be
There have been time when i wanted to break my mold
Switch over to another speed
I've been livin' in the right lane
Seeing others cruise on by
I've been tryin' to do the best thing
Think i'll give the passin' lane a try
Am i the kind who would run over my brother
Just to get where i should be？
Am i the kind to be content in my splendor
After all the trouble gettin' on the freeway？
I've been livin' in the right lane
5.Hurry Love
I've spend to many empty nights
Wait for you to touch me
And make it right
Will you give in
To what you felt was real？
Hurry love, hurry 'fore this feeling
Fades and slips away
Hurry love, hurry let her see that i
Need her to lay
Close to my heart
I've watched you all through your busy day
The look in your eyes says you're far away
Will you come back to my once happy dream
The love he pretended he just didn't mean
Hurry love, hurry 'fore this feeling
Fades and slips away
Hurry love, hurry let her see that i
Need her to lay
Close to my heart
Hurry love, make her see
Hurry love, lay with me
Hurry love, 'fore she leaves
Hurry love, set her free
Hurry love
The moment i saw her lovely face
I had to convince the girl to stay
She filled me with love to overflow
I just can't bear to let her go
Hurry love, hurry 'fore this feeling
Fades and slips away
Hurry love, hurry let her see that i
Need her to lay
Close to my heart
Hurry love, make her see
Hurry love, lay with me
Hurry love, 'fore she leaves
Hurry love, set her free
Hurry love
Make her give our love another day
Don't let her throw what we once had away
Bring her back into my once happy dream
Don't let him take her away from me
Let her free, don't let her leave
Give me one more try
Don't let her say goodbye
6.Heaven
It's like i'm sailing on the ocean
Every time i see your eyes
You could be the wind that keeps me floating
I could be in heaven for all i know
Heaven's a place for me to go
No one ever could have told me how
No one ever could have told me how
Heaven could be here on earth
I know your heart is very tender
Your soft touch the breeze of life
In your arms i feel a comfort
I surrender in your smile
Hold me close for just a while
No one ever could have told me how
No one ever could have told me how
Heaven could be here on earth
The gentle waves of love in motion
And the warmth of summer sun
In your love i need no compass
My direction has begun
Could you be an angel sent from god
No one ever could have told me how
No one ever could have told me how
Heaven could be here on earth
7.Grammy
You invite me to pick up my award
After all the time i've been out here
My music is still the same
Why is it just now getting there？
Wonder why this one got such play？
Wonder why all the fuss is made？
Now the turntables goin' 'round and 'round
Who's the judge of this anyway？
My music said what i had to say
Who decides if it's wrong or right？
The authority with such insite？
Wonder why this one got such play？
Wonder why all the fuss is made？
Now the turntables goin' 'round and 'round
We thought you wanted to be a star
You worked so hard to get this far
You played all the small time scenes
We just wanted to fulfill your dreams
You won a grammy, you won a grammy
You won a grammy, you won a grammy
Don't think i want to be bothered at all
Maybe i'll just give them a call
I won't go through pomp and circumstance
Anyway, my music isn't fancy
You invite me to share my fame
I've decided not to play your game
Now the turntables goin' 'round and 'round
We thought you wanted to be a star
8.Seems So Long Ago
Sat in the park just the other day
Saw little children about their way
The innocence mirrored in a little face
Took me back far away
Remembered when i was about that small
The park looked the same, but the trees seemed tall
Running and playing was my big concern
It took a while taking in it all
It took me back, far away
So long ago, to another time - another place
Seems so long ago -ah- long ago
I can see mom and dad and the house we had
Trees in the yard and how dad worked so hard
The good times we shared and how much they cared
Mom's great smile - how she wouldn't cry
All they did to make us grow
Love and strong - to not do wrong
Seems so long ago
