Album: Cuts
Like a Knife
The Only One
Take Me Back
This Time
Straight from The Heart
Cuts Like a Knife
I'm Ready
What's It Gonna Be
Don't Leave Me Lonely
Let Him Know
The Best Was Yet to Come
The
Only One
Well I made up my mind
Not gonna let you get away
To think that I'm the lucky guy
I've almost got it made
Cause it's been so long
Since I've felt so strong
About anyone at all
I get so excited
I ain't gonna fight it
I think I might be fallin' in love
So come on - let's get it right
Cause you're the only one
So come on - we ain't got all night
Cause you're the only one
Last night
I thought you mighta stayed
If I'd a' had the guts
I woulda pushed my luck
But then you mighta turned away
How do I explain
I know it sounds insane
But then I've been through this before
In just a matter of time
You could change your mind
You could turn and walk right hrough that door
So come on - let's get it straight
Cause you're the only one
So come on - I just can't wait
Cause you're the only one
Take
Me Back
I shoulda seen it coming
I shoulda seen the signs
Didn't really think that she needs me
Must've 'bin blind
She didn't give me a warning
Said I shouldn't treat you wrong
But when I woke up this mornin'
She was gone gone gone
She said...
Take me back won't ya
Take me back won't ya
I'll change my ways
Take me back won't ya
Take me back won't ya
I'm not the same
She didn't tell me about it
Am I supposed to read your mind
You make me get up and shout it
It's a crime crime crime
I shoulda seen it coming
I shoulda seen the signs
Didn't really think that she needs me
Must've 'bin blind
She said...
Take me back won't ya
Take me back won't ya
I'll change my ways
Take me back won't ya
Take me back won't ya
I'm not the same
Won't ya take me back
Won't ya take me back
This
Time
I think about her all the time
She's my fantasy
An image burnin' in my mind
Callin' out to me
While my imagination's runnin' wild
Yeah - things are getting clearer
This time everything is alright
No way she's gonna get away
This time everything is easy
Any day - I'm gonna make her mine
I've thought of every word I'd say
Give or take a few
But she turns and slowly walks away
What do I have to do
Hey - turn up your radio
Oh - there's somethin' I want you to know
This time everything is alright
No way she's gonna get away
This time everything is easy
Any day - I'm gonna make her mine
Well it's hard to take cause she's miles away
And I've waited a long time
But the feelin's right and darlin' one of these nights
Yeah - I'm gonna let you know
This time everything is alright
No way she's gonna get away
This time everything is easy
Any day - I'm gonna make her mine
Straight
from The Heart
I think about her all the time
She's my fantasy
An image burnin' in my mind
Callin' out to me
While my imagination's runnin' wild
Yeah - things are getting clearer
This time everything is alright
No way she's gonna get away
This time everything is easy
Any day - I'm gonna make her mine
I've thought of every word I'd say
Give or take a few
But she turns and slowly walks away
What do I have to do
Hey - turn up your radio
Oh - there's somethin' I want you to know
This time everything is alright
No way she's gonna get away
This time everything is easy
Any day - I'm gonna make her mine
Well it's hard to take cause she's miles away
And I've waited a long time
But the feelin's right and darlin' one of these nights
Yeah - I'm gonna let you know
This time everything is alright
No way she's gonna get away
This time everything is easy
Any day - I'm gonna make her mine
Cuts
Like a Knife
Drivin' home this evening
I coulda sworn we had it all worked out
You had this boy believin'
Way beyond the shadow of a doubt
Then I heard it on the street
I heard you mighta found somebody new
Well who is he baby - who is he
And tell me what he means to you
I took it all for granted
But how was I to know
That you'd be letting go
Now it cuts like a knife
But it feels so right
It cuts like a knife
But it feels so right
There's times I've 'bin mistaken
There's times I thought I'd 'bin misunderstood
So wait a minute darlin'
Can't you see we did the best we could
This wouldn't be the first time
Things have gone astray
Now you've thrown it all away
Now it cuts like a knife
But It feels so right
It cuts like a knife
But it feels so right
I'm
Ready
I'd like to see you, thought I'd let you know
I wanna be with you everyday
Cause I've got a feeling that beginning to grow
And there's only one thing I wanna say
I'm ready - to love you
I'm ready - to hold you
I'm ready - I'm ready
Ready as I'm gonna be
She left me a long note when she left me here
Told me that love was hard to find
But baby it's easy and I'll make it clear
That there's only one thing on my mind
I'm ready - to love you
I'm reday - to hold you
I'm ready - I'm ready
Ready as I'm gonna be
What's
It Gonna Be
If it was up to me
I'd say it's his decision
And maybe you should wait and see
You haven't got a choice
You gotta second guess him
So go ahead
What's it gonna be
Well you need an answer
What's it gonna be
All you get is no reply
If it was up to you
You'd say you need protection
When all you really need is me
Now that's the bottom line
It's your sincere intention
So go ahead
What's it gonna be
Well you need an answer
What's it gonna be
All you get is no reply
What's it gonna be
Well you need an answer
What's it gonna be
All you get is no reply
You've been waiting for so long
Now you say you can't go on
You can't go on, oh no
Don't
Leave Me Lonely
I won't stand bein' broken hearted
I won't be pushed around
The rules were set when we got started
But lately I have found
We've spent too little time and too much heartache
I feel we're losin' ground
And lately I've been hearin'
You won't be needin' me around
Don't leave me lonely
Just wanna be right by your side
Your one and only - tonite
So don't leave me lonely
I need you here all the time
So don't leave me lonely - oh no
You say you need your independence
Well I need mine
Separate lives and separate feelings
I guess that's fine
But that won't last - it's no solution
I know it can't survive
And lately I've been thinkin'
Thinkin' 'bout you all the time
Let
Him Know
Another day goes by and still you
wonder what happened
You'd give the world for one more try
But you're too shy to ask him
You don't wanna ask him now
I know your heart will pull you through
If he means that much to you -
you gotta let him know
Let him know that you love him
You gotta let him know
What can I say it's up to you
You gotta make up your own mind
Well it's your life it's up to you
Cause you didn't believe me
You still don't believe me
Now you're gonna see it's all comin' true
That's why I'm leavin' it up to you
Yeah you gotta let him know
The news is out I guess you heard
I shouldn't breathe a single word
The bottom line is nothing's gonna stop you now
You gotta let him know...
The
Best Was Yet to Come
Just a small town girl in the city lights
The best was yet to come
Then lonely days turned to endless nights
The best was yet to come
How were you to know
That you would be the lucky one
Ain't it funny how time flies
When the best is yet to come
You can cry yourself to sleep at night
You can't change the things you've done
You had it there then it slipped away
Yeah you left the song unsung
Even through your tears
I never saw you come undone
What's so good about goodbye
When the best was yet to come
I find myself thinkin' about yesterday
When you were and livin' in a dream
In the moment that it takes
You find you made your first mistake
Like the setting sun...
You turn around it's gone
Just a small town girl who had it made
Or so the story goes
She had it there then it slipped
Oh - how was she to know
Even through her tears
I never saw her come undone
Ain't it funny how time flies
When the best is yet to come
What's so good about goodbye
When the best was yet to come
