Lyrics

1.
You Keep Me Hangin' On
Set me free why don't cha babe
Get out of my life why don't cha babe
'cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on

Set me free why don't cha babe
Get out of my life why don't cha babe
You don't really need me
But you keep me hangin' on

Why do you keep a comin' around
Playing with my heart
Why don't cha get out of my life
And let me make a brand new start
Let me get over you
The way you've gotten over me yeah

You say although we broke up
You still just wanna be friends
But how can we still be friends
When seeing you only breaks my heart again

Get out, get out of my life
And let me sleep at night
'cos you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on

You say you still care for me
But your heart and soul needs to be free
And now that you've got your freedom
You wanna still hold on to me
You don't want me for yourself
So let me find somebody else

Why don't cha be a man about it and set me free
Now you don't care a thing about me
You're just using me - hey, abusing me
Get out, get out of my life
And let me sleep at night
'cos you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin'on
You don't really need me
You just keep me - hangin' on
2.
Hit Him
Too much time talking at each other
Seems you've got a different point of view
Let's just relax
Get down to basic facts
I'll tell you just exactly what to do
You want the car, oh yeah
Well every penny in my pocket isn't yours, my friend
I'm gonna do what my mama says, she said

Hit him, hit him in the heart
That's where it's gonna hurt
Hit him, hit him in the heart
Don't let him treat you like dirt

I don't wanna sound like in complaining
But what's it got to do with love at all
It's a private deal
Painful and so real
You make me feel like I just want to crawl
What's yours is yours, oh yeah
If you want to get your bags
Well I'll leave them in the hall
I'm gonna do what my mama says, she said

You've been spreading rumours all about me
But all these things you said are just not true
Sticks and stones
Can break my bones
But boy they're gonna hurt you too
I've got my pride, oh yeah
So I'll just take your heart and beat it black and blue
I'm gonna do what my mama said, she said...

Another Step (Closer to You)
Never, ever felt this way before
You are the one that I'm craving for

Another step nearer your heart
Another step closer to knowing you
Another step nearer your heart
I'm on my way

I never thought it could happen
Being close to someone like you
But you know this isn't just a minute affair
If we make time and take a lot of care
I love everything about it
There's such a good feel about it
And I know where I'm gonna be
If you take a step closer to me

I couldn't even describe it
Though I tried I couldn't find the words
When you're stumbling through life
And love is one step away
Carry on or do you stay
We've got to promise faithfully
To hang on to each other and never leave
That's the way love's gonna be
If you take a step closer to me - come on now

The only way to deal with affairs of the heart
You've got to jump right in, doesn't matter who starts
Take a step nearer, come over here
Together we can make it tonight

The Thrill of It
Thinking about what a friend just said
You know nothing good comes easy
You took the thought right from my head
You only seem to tease me

Then you turn - it on again
Then you turn - me on again
Then I learn the answers
To all my questions
Now something's taking over

It's the thrill of it, the thrill of it
It's the thrill of it - turn me on
It's the thrill of it
Can you feel it
The thrill of it
It's taking me over

Now what am I supposed to do
You know it can't go on much longer
Everytime when I'm near you
You know the feelings so much stronger

Then you turn - it on again
Then you turn - me on again
Then I learn the answers
To all my questions
Now something's taking over
5.
I've Got So Much Love
I got this fever that burns in my head
And I don't want to move out of this bed
My heart is speeding away like a fast freight train
It's heading your way
It's racing like a river that's gone out of control
And reaches out for something completely unknown
It's eating through the senses and breathes in my soul
Oh this feeling just got to let it go

I got so much love
Do you feel the same
I got so much love
Do you feel the same
We'll how can I begin to
Hide the feelings that I'm into - for you
I got so much love inside
I got this feeling for you

But now the cure is about to begin
I feel your fingers all over my skin
And then the fire of kiss
What a thrill
So sweet so sweet
I don't know where it's taking me but I want to go
It's burning up the wires to way overload
It's eating up my senses and burns in my soul
Oh this feeling just got to let it show

Well how can I begin to
Hide the love that I got into with you
I got so much love inside
I got this feeling for you
6.
Schoolgirl
It's something else to see the way you're growing
From a sweet little baby to a grown up girl
And I pray though darlin' I've no way to knowing
That you'll discover a beautiful world

As you skip down the street
And hold your books so tightly
Tell me what are you learning in your ABC
Are you dreaming off all the many things you might be
You know that we're just waiting to see

Schoolgirl
You're such an inspiration
Schoolgirl
And you're as fresh as the breeze
You've got the whole world
Just waiting for you
You're really something, something to see

It's easy to worry in a world of trouble
When there's nothing but bad news
Trying to bring you down
But life doesn't have to be unuphill struggle
There's still some wonderful things to be found

There is sadness and confusion in our hearts
And the world prepares to fight
As it tears itself apart - it isn't fair
7.
Say You Really Want Me
Why you always got to be so cool
And why I always got to play your fool
You don't really know what life's about
Baby come and let your feelings out

Say you really want me
Don't keep it to yourself
Say you really need me
Just me and no one else
Say you really love me
Ooh let me know it's true
Say you really want me
The way that I want you tonight

You don't know a thing about romance
Deep inside you're scared to take the chance
'Cos love like this may never come again
Make your move or I'll be in the wind

I need somebody through the thick and the thin
'Cos I know the problems of today
The time is over now for playing those games
Lets take it all the way
8.
She Hasn't Got Time for You
I heard you're out on your own
Guess it's strange now you're living without love
You'd think all those years
Would mean something
But it's over she's had enough
Don't you know it's always hard at the start...
To change
When you look round and someone's broken
Your heart
Afraid to fall in love

She hasn't got time for you
But don't be afraid to fall in love
I think you knew from the start
She would break up your heart
She hasn't got time for you
But honey don't be afraid to fall
Just take a look in my eyes
Come and give it a try

So now she's out on her own
Talking cheap and laughing about your love
The whispers you hear should tell you something
Cos it's over and she's playing rough
Could have told you such a long time ago
You wouldn't listen cos you don't want to know
That she was bad from the start
And now she's breaking your heart
9.
Brothers
Here we are
Late in the hours that start another day
Here am I
Skirting around what I really want to say

Brothers
Well they hold a place in your heart
They're something apart
But then...
Lovers...
Well that's a different thing to talk about

All this world
You know I'd give you my love - if there were more
But these words
Cover the roads that we've walked so long before
That's another feeling
That's a different story
When we've really nowhere to start
That's another feeling
That's another place in your heart - when I say brothers

We've got really nowhere to start
That's another feeling
That's a different story
They're simply just two worlds apart
That's another feeling
That's another place in my heart - when I say brothers

When ever we two get talking about love
It always ends up
Ends up in tears
I would have thought by now you'd know me
So please stop cryin'
And wasting those tears
10.
Missing
They said "stick with your own kind
You're out of your depth
Think you've had it bad so far
You're not finished yet"
And all she's known is the taste of tears
She's going no - where, can anybody hear

Now she's missing in the eyes of the law
She got out quick, she couldn't take much more
Now she's missing in the eyes of the law
Somebody help her

It's cold in the street
There's a cold in her nose
She's been walking all night
And the rain's soaked her clothes
She doesn't know what she's doing here
She shrugs her shoulders, guess that's the way it goes

And now she's missing in the eyes of the law
She only did it 'cos she wanted much more
And now she's missing in the eyes of the law
Somebody help her
Somebody help her
Now she's missing in the eyes of the law
She only did it 'cos she wanted much more
And she's missing in the eyes of the law
Somebody help her

How Do You Want My Love
It's good to meet you - how you doin'
I haven't seen your face before
Yeah I'm alone here - noticed you the minute
You walked through the door

It's getting late and so much time is wasted
Dancing on the floor
And making small talk
I've been through that before
How do you want my love

You know they told me - keep your distance
Got to play love by the rules
And I believed them wound up losing
Love left me for a fool

I know I'm not the only one
Who knows what love can do
It's in your eyes
You've been hurt the same way too

How do you want my love
How do you want my love tonight
How do you want my love
How do you want my love tonight

Here with you I can smile away the pain
Make believe I can fall in love again
Won't you tell me your name
How do you want my love

The party's over - there's people leaving
Friend saying their goodbyes
So come on over - I'll make you coffee
No need to end the night
12.
Don't Say Nothing's Changed
Don't say nothing's changed with you
I can hear it in your sighs
The way that you can't look me in the eyes
It's spelling out bad news

So don't say it's the same we two
No I can't say I'm suprised
'cos I could see it in your eyes
And no you don't have to lie
Baby you don't have to lie

Why can't it be like yesterday
The feelings gone
But I just want to say that I love you know
And I'm holding on for you
Is that a silly thing to do

So don't say nothing's changed with you
Now we're running out of time
And I've got to give up something that was mine
Oh baby doesn't it seem cruel

So don't say it's the same we two
'Cos we're already worlds apart
And now the lonliness will start
Oh boy you're breaking my heart
Baby you're breaking my heart

So don't say nothing's changed with you
