She went out and she never came back
Walking down life's only track to the other side
I thought that I had a soul
It turned out to be just a hole in my life

Just a piece of paradise
Just a piece of paradise
Wouldn't that be nice

They were taught to work the land
Broken hearts and broken hands in their lives
Some want cool and summer breeze
Some just wait for death’s release from their lives

Just a piece of paradise
Just a piece of paradise
Wouldn't that be nice

Just a piece of paradise
Just a piece of paradise
Wouldn't that be nice

Say It Again return to top
(Mayer / Guth / Mayer)

I know it's been said
Man must have his daily bread
But if you wanna stay alive
You gotta have more than bread to survive
The morning paper's got no story
And the radio's not gonna say
Everybody wants the power and glory

I just want you to
Say it to me softly in the morning
Tell me something I don’t know
Say it to me baby without warning
Why don't you say it again
Say it again, say it again

I don't wanna hear no song
Tellin' me what I've wanted for so long
But if you wanna let it show
Baby I need more than Michelangelo
I'm not gonna read the morning paper
And the radio's not gonna say I wanna hear it sooner or later

I just want you to
Say it to me softly in the morning
Tell me something I don’t know
Say it to me baby without warning
Why don't you say it again
Say it again, say it again

I'm not gonna read the morning paper
And the radio's not gonna say Now I wanna hear it sooner or later

I just want you to
Say it to me softly in the morning
Tell me something I don’t know
Say it to me baby without warning
Why don't you say it again
Say it again, say it again

Why don't you tell me
Say it again, say it again, say it again
Why don't you tell me baby
Say it again, say it again, say it again

Moonlight Over Paris    return to top
(Mayer / Guth / Mayer)

You say you've been overseas
I say over where You say just a holiday
My Alsatian heir
I say I've been working late, working overtime
Haven't seen the sun since sixty-nine

Does the moonlight shine on Paris
After the sun goes down
If the London bridge is falling
Will anybody hear a sound
If you follow the sunset will it ever end
Does the moonlight shine on Paris

Oh and how can you just walk away
Is it something that I said
I see only Black and White
You see Green and Red
You believe in the miracles, water into wine
I'll believe when it makes the New York Times

Does the moonlight shine on Paris
After the sun goes down
If the London bridge is falling
Will anybody hear a sound
If you follow the sunset will it ever end
Does the moonlight shine on Paris

Nothing   return to top
(Mayer / Guth / Mayer)

I'm a believer oh no
Nothing's gonna change my soul
Impossible dreamer ya ya
It takes me where I should not go
"I could be wrong" can keep you going round and round
Could the sky come tumbling down down down tomorrow

Nothing can take me away
No one can steal away my heart again
Nothing can take me away from you
Nothing can take me away
No one can steal away my heart again
Nothing can take me away from you

Love her or leave her oh no
That's the way the story goes
There's a deceiver myself
Let's keep that story on the shelf
I should have known
That love is never love alone
Yes and how can you leave this love to sorrow

Nothing can take me away
No one can steal away my heart again
Nothing can take me away from you
Nothing can take me away
No one can steal away my heart again
Nothing can take me away from you

There may be storms or rivers to cross
Or mountains in my way
Darkness of night can leave you for lost
With nothing left to say
So say nothing

Nothing can take me away
No one can steal away my heart again
Nothing can take me away from you
Nothing can take me away
No one can steal away my heart again
Nothing can take me away from you

Nothing's gonna take me away
Nothing
Nothing's gonna change my mind
Nothing
Nothing can take me away

Nothing can take me away
No one can steal away my heart again
Nothing can take me away from you
Nothing can take me away
No one can steal away my heart again
Nothing can take me away from you

Somebody's Gonna Cry    return to top
(Mayer / Guth / Mayer)

Wake up Joe, the lights are on
It's three a.m., and your baby’s gone
Nothing but a note on your pillow
There's been mistakes, things we've missed
For all these years I need more than this
It's my turn to weep for the willow
When that song of love begins to play
And every word just tears my heart away
Is this the price of love that we pay I said

Somebody's gonna
Somebody's gonna
Somebody's gonna cry
Somebody's gonna
Somebody's gonna
Somebody's gonna cry

Baby Jane, Sister Sam
Through all this love and here I stand, alone
Nothing but tears on my pillow
There's been mistakes baby, things we've missed
My tears are falling for every kiss
Just like the rain on my window
When that song of love begins to play
All my reason slowly slips away
Is this the price of love that we pay I said

Somebody's gonna
Somebody's gonna
Somebody's gonna cry
Somebody's gonna
Somebody's gonna
Somebody's gonna cry

I'm gonna cry...
I'm gonna cry all night for your love
When that song of love begins to play
And every word just tears my heart away
Is this the price of love that we pay I said

Somebody's gonna
Somebody's gonna
Somebody's gonna cry
Somebody's gonna
Somebody's gonna
Somebody's gonna cry

Once you were young
Looking up so far
When you're on your own
You can find it very hard
What does it take to be another man
When all you know is how to be a boy
Time to grow up
And put away your toys
Haven't you had enough
Of runnin' with the  boys
What does it take to be another man
To be the winning Homo sapien
Got to give it all 'cause you won’t be small again

Grown men, talkin' ‘bout the big boys
And you see them, playin’ with their big toys
When it comes down to it we’re children in the end
Playin' grown men, we’re playin' grown men

Calling all cars
Someone's on the loose
Who's gonna do the job
The heroes that you choose
The Lone Ranger rides across the land
Rocky's gonna make another stand
Kiss the girl and ride away into the Promised Land

Grown men, talkin' ‘bout the big boys
And you see them, playin’ with their big toys
When it comes down to it we’re children in the end
Playin' grown men, we’re playin' grown men

Grown men, that's all we are
Grown men
Ya...ya...ya...ya...
Ya...ya...ya...

Grown men, talkin' ‘bout the big boys
And you see them, playin’ with their big toys
When it comes down to it we’re children in the end
Playin' grown men, we’re playin' grown men

Someone must be laughing
Someone must be laughing
Someone must be laughing
Grown men
Talkin' about...
Talkin' about...
Talkin' about...
Talkin' about...

The Wanting    return to top
(Mayer / Guth / Mayer)

The moon and stars are   out  tonight
You're the child of wonder,   child of light
Tears will tell, the wanting   in me burns like...
And I will live for you tonight
‘Neath the blackness of the    pale moonlight
Who am I, I'm just a lonely   shadow
Standing by your side   tonight

Only love can save me now I'm wanting you
And like a child I'd fall without your love
Only love can save me now I’m wanting you
Because a part of me is a part of you

Nothing you can say will change my mind
I see only love, and love is blind
Tears will tell, the wanting in me burns like
Fallen stars and broken hearts

Only love can save me now I'm wanting you
And like a child I'd fall without your love
Only love can save me now I’m wanting you
Because a part of me is a part of you

Only love can save me now I'm wanting you
And like a child I'd fall without your love
Only love can save me now I’m wanting you
Because a part of me is a part of you

Only love, and like a child I’d fall without your love
And only love will save me now
And like a child I'd fall without your love
There's only one thing on my mind...
Only love...
There's only one thing on my mind...
Only love...
There's only one thing on my mind...
Only love...
repeat...

On the Corner return to top
(Mayer / Guth / Mayer)

So I go down to the corner
That's where the music plays
This is where I wanna be
And the feeling starts to   hit me
As the band begins to play
Oh this is where I wanna be

The day begins, the usual sense of runaround
Everyone is climbing to the top
But I don't care for business opportunity
They think I've lost my mind somewhere

Three-martini lunches at the restaurant
The sound of traffic rushes by outside
Through the noise I hear a simple melody
Oh I think my work can wait another day

So I go down to the corner
That's where the music plays
This is where I wanna be
And the feeling starts to   hit me
As the band begins to play
Oh this is where I wanna be

The day begins, the usual sense of runaround
Everyone is climbing to the top
But I don't care for business opportunity
They think I've lost my mind somewhere

But now it's three o’clock and no one seems to care
That everything has turned to black and white
But I won't be another corporate casualty
I'll close the door and make my way back home

So I go down to the corner
That's where the music plays
This is where I wanna be
And the feeling starts to   hit me
As the band begins to play
Oh this is where I wanna be

The day begins, the usual sense of runaround
Everyone is climbing to the top
But I don't care for business opportunity
They think I've lost my mind somewhere

So I go down to the corner
That's where the music plays
This is where I wanna be
And the feeling starts to   hit me
As the band begins to play
Oh this is where I wanna be

The day begins, the usual sense of runaround
Everyone is climbing to the top
But I don't care for business opportunity
They think I've lost my mind somewhere

Just another crazy day . . . crazy, crazy day
Just another crazy day . . . crazy, crazy day
Just another crazy day . . . crazy, crazy day
So I'm sittin' on the corner waitin’ for the music to play
Waitin' so long...

When First We Were Lovers    return to top
(Mayer / Guth / Mayer)

The day breaks
Feeling all the colors of our embrace
Oh oh sha la la la la lay
The summer sun
Shine a new light on everyone
Oh oh sha la la la la lay

But how can I explain
When I hear that song again
It helps me remember that day

When first we were lovers I can't explain...
When first we were lovers

The moonshine
Follow the shadows yours and mine
Oh oh sha la la la la lay
I knew you then
Like a familiar place I’ve never been
Oh oh sha la la la la lay

But how can I explain
When I hear that song again
It helps me remember that day

When first we were lovers I can't explain...
When first we were lovers

I'm afraid, of tender chains
You tell me it's all right
I hear your name, I feel the pain
It takes me for a ride

And how can I explain
When I hear that song again
It helps me remember that day

When first we were lovers I can't explain...
When first we were lovers

Boy Meets Girl return to top
(Mayer / Guth / Mayer)

Got into town just yesterday
I'm checking in at the Star Hotel
Love moved out and I moved away
My "it's all right" isn't doing so well

There's many reasons for running away
The diamond ring that blinds my eyes
Silver bells on a wedding day
This time the bird is gonna fly

What do you want
Boy meets girl
What do you need
Boy meets girl
What do you got
Boy meets girl
What do you want

Boy meets girl

A look of love caught my eye today
It was just a sparkle of desire
I didn't mean to turn you on that way
'Cause I know just a look can turn to fire

What do you want
Boy meets girl
What do you need
Boy meets girl
What do you got
Boy meets girl
What do you want

Boy meets girl

Oh oh oh oh oh oh-oo-oh
Oh oh oh oh-oo-oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh-oo-oh
Oh oh oh oh-oo-oh

What do you want
Boy meets girl
What do you need
Boy meets girl
What do you got
Boy meets girl
What do you want

Boy meets girl

Me baby, with me baby, with me baby, with me baby,
With me baby, with me baby, with me baby, with me...
There's a girl, I know
There's a boy, oh no
Tell me tell me ya...
Want, need, got...

Love is a Stranger return to top
(Mayer / Guth / Mayer)

You are the one of my dreams
I was so lonely 'til you came to me
I promised forever that you have my love
But now it's the morning, what you thinkin' on

Love is a stranger sleeping in my bed
Love is a good friend, thought I knew so well
I wake up one morning, find that you are gone
And love is a stranger

Last night we count the stars together
This morning I see the stormy weather
There's so many changes, I don't know what to do
Please give me your hand baby, what a touch will do

Love is a stranger sleeping in my bed
Love is a good friend, thought I knew so well
I wake up one morning, find that you are gone
And love is a stranger

It's so hard to believe that love is your friend
When it leaves you bleeding on the ground
Then it calls you back again
Love is a stranger

So you found the one of your dreams
But love is never, never, never, just what it seems
There's so many things that I could say to you
Just hold on to the stranger, and it'll see you through

Love is a stranger sleeping in my bed
Love is a good friend, thought I knew so well
I wake up one morning, find that you are gone
And love is a stranger

Yes I'm sensing the danger, I’m looking at the danger I’m in
Love is a stranger, thought I knew so well
The stranger...   the stranger...
Love is a good friend that’s been by my side
Love is a stranger
. . . By my side

I Live in a Hole  return to top
(Mayer / Guth / Mayer)

I've been living here so long
Since the day I met you
Ever since I saw your face
I could not forget you
You don't do the things to me
That I would want you to
If you'd only write to me I'd promise to be true

I live in a hole far away from you
Far away from your desire
I live in a hole don't know what to do

Don't you know my heart’s on fire
From the time I saw your face
Undercover passion
Now I'm feeling so in love
Feeling so in fashion
You don't do the things to me
That I would want you to
If you'd only write to me I'd promise to be true

I live in a hole far away from you
Far away from your desire
I live in a hole don't know what to do

You don't do the things to me
That I would want you to
If you'd only write someday
I'd promise to be true

I live in a hole far away from you
Far away from your desire
I live in a hole don't know what to do
