Prisoner Of Love
(M. Jones/L. Gramm)
In your book of broken hearts
You had my name now the story starts
We'll never be the same again I know

I'm a victim of circumstance
I'm the one that got the second chance
One chance...that's all I need, and I won't let go

Now you've got to understand I'm ready
I won't be denied
This lonely heart must be satisfied

You lie waiting far across the sea
Wild horses could never stop me
The highest mountain ain't high enough
I'm coming back, gonna take you prisoner of love

Calling all dreamers, every heart broken fool
Doing what I can...but, love is cruel
The highest mountain ain't high enough
I won't give up, gonna take you prisoner of love

You took the magic of the silver screen
You've got the look, that dreams are made of
I'll do anything to make my dreams come true

Now turn this city upside down
I comb the streets of every lonely town
I'll never rest, I'm a man possessed
I need love from you

I know you've got it there and I want it
I won't be denied
Your lonely heart will be satisfied

You lie waiting far across the sea
Wild horses could never stop me
The highest mountain ain't high enough
I'm coming back, gonna take you prisoner of love

Calling all dreamers, every heart broken fool
Doing what I can but love is cruel
The highest mountain ain't high enough
I won't give up, gonna take you prisoner of love

Calling all dreamers, every heart broken fool
Doing what I can but love is cruel
The highest mountain ain't high enough
I'm coming back, gonna take you prisoner of love

Baby, I'll be sailing far across the sea
Wild horses could never stop me
The highest mountain ain't high enough
I won't give up, gonna take you prisoner of love

I'm coming back gonna take you prisoner of love
I'm coming back, I'm coming back
I won't give up, gonna take you prisoner of love
I get to your love
I'm coming back, gonna take you prisoner of love
Take you prisioner of love
I won't give up, I won't give up, gonna take you prisoner of love
I'm coming back, gonna take you prisoner of love

Soul Doctor
(M. Jones/L. Gramm)
Well I woke up this morning
Took your advice
I dialed the number
And I let it ring twice
Then I hung up

Now I tried to do
Everything I could
To save our love
And make it feel good again

I can't fight it, there's nobody home
Hard hearted and all alone
I give you love, you ain't giving it back
I can't take it

I need to see the soul doctor
Before the fever begins
You know I'm searching for the soul doctor
When love is wearing thin
Doctor soul is in

I've been kicked in the corner
I'm down in the dirt
I can't feel a thing
But I know it ought to hurt

Now your shaking my spirit
I'm breaking my back
I'm too blind to hear it
So I over react to satisfaction
If I could get me some

I ain't talking, there's nothing to say
Misunderstandin', your walking away
Maybe baby, it's gonna take time, time, time

I need to see the soul doctor
Before the fever begins
You know I'm searching for the soul doctor
When love is wearing thin
Doctor soul is in

I need to see the soul doctor
You know things are looking grim
I keep searching for the soul doctor
Doctor soul is in

The doctor's soul intention
Let it be understood
Can't pull the strings of my heart
I ain't made out of wood

Now I take what I get
To get what it takes
Need a little bit a love
Got a whole lotta heartaches

I can't fight it, there's nobody home
Hard hearted and all alone
Maybe baby, it's gonna take time, time, time

I need to see the soul doctor
Before the fever begins
You know I'm searching for the soul doctor
When love is wearing thin
Doctor soul is in

I need to see the soul doctor
You know things are looking grim
I keep searching for the soul doctor
Doctor soul is in

Hey, a little bit of soul, oh yeah
Doctor soul is in
Heart and soul doctor
I need to see the soul doctor, soul doctor
Doctor soul is in
Doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor save my soul
Doctor soul is in
Ooh

With Heaven On Our Side
(M. Jones/L. Gramm/J. Edwards/
P. Huxley/S. Schiff)
Time, our precious time
In the beginning
Your heart and mine
I thought our love
Was one of a kind
I thought we were winning
But I was one step behind, ooh oh

Words, I couldn't say
The words that would keep you
From running away
But I should've tried
Even begged you to stay
I felt the tears of an angel
Fall from Heaven that day

I know, I know
Your voice keeps haunting me
Come home, come home
Come on back to me
I know it ain't easy
You're a part of me
You're the wings on my heart

Can we give our love another try?
Can we keep our broken dream alive?
Now more than ever
With heaven on our side, ooooh

Can we give our love one more night?
I miss you angel, can we make it right?
Now and forever
With heaven on our side, on our side

This tender love slipped through our hands
Two broken hearts, could not withstand it
Girl, I know what I put you through
If you need me now, I'll be there for you

And I know it ain't easy
Still a part of me
You're the wings on my heart

Can we give our love another try?
Can we keep our broken dream alive?
Now more than ever
With heaven on our side, ooooh

Can we give our love just one more night?
Oh angel baby, shine your golden light
Now and forever
I know heaven's on our side, on our side

Give our love another try, give our love another try
Can we keep our broken dream alive?
Now more than ever
With heaven, heaven on our side, on our side

Heaven on our side

Can't Wait
(M. Jones/L. Gramm)
I've been on this road a long time
I've been travellin' for days
But it seems I'm getting nowhere
I just can't find my way
I've been following directions
But they must be out of date
And I can't, and I can't, and I can't, no I can't
Decide which road to take

See I've got to find my baby
Cause we need to work things out
I've got to see that woman
I cannot do without her!

You know I can't wait, can't wait another moment
I can't wait, I can't wait another heartbeat
No I can't wait, can't wait another moment
I couldn't wait another heartbeat
I can't wait until midnight

And the nights go on forever
These days I get no sleep
And I miss her more than ever
Inside where love runs deep
Oh I know I'm going to find her
Cause I'm following this star
And I can't, and I can't, no I can't turn back
Oh lord, I've come so far

And I'll know she'll whisper in my ear
'Bout all the things I've missed
She's got that way about her now
I never could resist

And now I can't wait, can't wait another moment
No I can't wait, I can't wait another heartbeat
I can't wait, can't wait another moment
I couldn't wait another heartbeat
I can't wait until midnight

No I can't wait
I can't wait another moment
I couldn't wait another heartbeat
I can't wait until the midnight

Now I can't wait
No no no can't wait
No no no
Can't wait
No no no
Can't wait
(repeat and fade out)

Heart Turns To Stone
(M. Jones/L. Gramm)
The days and nights you sit around wondering where can
she be
Hoping that she might appear, out of nowhere
But you fail to see

All the hurt inside, the wounded pride
Ooh what she went through for you
You cheated and lied, as her love slowly died
And her heart just broke in two

When she was with you, all along
Behind you right or wrong
She tried to hold on, hold on
But you went too far, and she's gone

And now it's over and her heart turns to stone
No time for pity, when her heart turns to stone
She cries a little as her heart turns to stone
She's that kind of woman
She'll do fine on her own

What you thought was a game
A game you were winning
Wouldn't go your way
Now you've lost what you had
And your back to the beginning
It's the price you have to pay

When she was with you, all along
Behind you right or wrong
She tried to hold on, hold on
But you went too far, and she's gone

And now it's over and her heart turns to stone
No time for pity, when her heart turns to stone
She cries a little as her heart turns to stone
She's that kind of woman
She'll get by on her own

She hides the pain
But her heart turns to stone
No time for pity
When her heart turns to stone
She cries sometimes
As her heart turns to stone
She's that kind of woman
She'll get by on her own

Yeah it's over
And her heart turns to stone
Don't look for pity now
When her heart turns to stone
Listen to her cry
Listen to her cry
She's a woman now
Ooh it's a sad thing to see
To see a heart turn to stone
The heart of a woman
A heart turned to stone

I Don't Want To Live Without You
(M. Jones)
I find myself in a strange situation
And I don't know how
What seemed to be an infatuation
Is so different now
I can't get by if we're not together
Ooh can't you see
Girl, I want you now and forever
Close to me
I'm longing for the time
I'm longing for the day
Hoping that you will promise to be mine
And never go away

I don't want to live without you
I don't want to live without you
I could never live without you
Live without your love

I ask myself but there's no explanation
For the way I feel
I know I've reached the right destination
And I know it's real

I'm longing for the time
I'm longing for the day
When I'll be giving you this heart of mine
Believe me when I say

I don't want to live without you
I don't want to live without you
I could never live without you
Live without your love

No I don't want to live without you
I don't want to live without you
I could never live without you
Live without your love

Now I don't want to live without you
I don't want to live without you
I could never be without you
Be without your love

I don't want to live without you
Live without your love
Live without your love
You see I'm lost without your love

Ooh...oh
Without your love

That Was Yesterday
(M. Jones/L. Gramm)
I thought I knew you well
But all this time I could never tell
I let you get away
Haunts me every night and every day

You were the only one
The only friend that I counted on
How could I watch you walk away
I'd give anything to have you here today

But now I stand alone with my pride
And dream that you're still by my side

But that was yesterday
I had the world in my hands
But it's not the end of my world
Just a slight change of plans

That was yesterday
But today life goes on
No more hiding in yesterday
'Cause yesterday's gone

Love, my love I gave it all
Thought I saw the light
When I heard you call
Life that we both could share
Has deserted me
Left me in despair

But now I stand alone with my pride
Fighting back the tears I never let myself cry

But that was yesterday
Love was torn from my hands
But it's not the end of my world
Just a little hard to understand

That was yesterday
But today life goes on
You won't find me in yesterday's world
Now yesterday's gone

Goodbye yesterday
Now it's over and done
Still I hope somewhere deep in your heart
Yesterday will live on

Tooth And Nail
(L. Gramm/M. Jones)
I'm tired of all this cheap talk
When you walk next to me
They say I ain't good enough for you
Why don't they come and tell me
When they see us out in the night
They can't wait to tear us apart
Now I hear them saying lovin' you ain't right
Well they'd better be ready 'cause honey I'll be there

I will fight tooth and nail
Count on me, I will not fail you
I will fight tooth and nail

They say I'm always breaking promises
And I'm just fooling with you
Then they try and come between the two of us
Man, that's a bad thing to do
I can say I had more than enough
But I ain't gonna take it too hard
I said hey, they want to play rough
Well let's see who backs down when the trouble starts

I will fight tooth and nail
Count on me, I will not fail you
I will fight tooth and nail

Come on try me, I won't give in
They take advantage, but they can't win
I'll be your man, baby, wait and see
Ain't nobody, nobody take your love from me

I will fight tooth and nail
I was wrong, I will not fail you
I will fight tooth and nail

I'll be your man, baby, wait and see
Ain't nobody, nowhere take your love away from me

I will fight tooth and nail
Count on me, I will not fail you
I will fight tooth and nail

Right now, tooth and nail
I am waiting for the fight
Tooth and nail
Right now, c'mon, tooth and nail
Right now, tooth and nail
C'mon, tooth and nail
Ah fight
Tooth and nail
Right now, c'mon, tooth and nail
C'mon, right now, tooth and nail

Growing Up The Hard Way
(M. Jones/L. Gramm)
He's got nothing to say, he's got no excuse
He's just made that way, and he's gonna stay that way
Like a dog on the loose in a firework display in a world of his own
No, no, no, he won't back down or go running back home

He's come a long way in life
He's got a long way to go
He don't even know, he don't care because
He's growing up the hard way
In and out of trouble every day
Growing up the hard way
Now no tellin' where you'll end up, boy

And he's got nothing to say, like he's lost for the worlds, his mind is in a daze
That's his way, it's just a little game he plays
He's got nowhere to run while the city sleeps he wanders alone
Cuttin' through the steel and the hearts of stone

He's come a long way in life
He's got a long way to go
He don't even know, but he don't care because
He's growing up the hard way
In and out of trouble every day
Growing up the hard way
You'd better walk the straight and narrow

Growing up the hard way
In and out of trouble every day
Growing up the hard way
Never know what you're in for, boy

He's come a long way in life
He's got a long way to go
He don't wanna know, and he don't care because
He's growing up the hard way
In and out of trouble every day
He's growing up the hard way
Yeah, and he's gonna stay that way
You see, he's growing up the hard way
Walk the straight and narrow yeah, maybe someday
But still he's growing up the hard way
It's just the way he's grown up
Yeah, growing up the hard way
There ain't no other way
Growing up the hard way

Stranger In My Own House
(M. Jones)
(a capella: She said: Boy, your luck is running out...she make me feel like a stranger...in my own house)
I come stumbling in at a quarter to three
To the sound of my own dog growlin' at me
I'm scared to move or turn on a light
You've got me creepin' around in the dark
Like a thief in the night
I've got no excuse, I should have known
I've got no place to live
I never feel at home

I walk into the kitchen to see what's there
I'm tired and I'm hungry but the cupboard's bare
I've been working all day and all night too
I can't believe this is all I have to come back to

I guess I'll take a look upstairs, in the danger zone
I wonder what I'm doing here
When I never feel at home

I'm a stranger in my own house
I've got the keys to the door
But I'm still locked out
I'm a stranger in my own house
I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow this house down
Can't be a stranger in my own house

I see the do not disturb sign on my bedroom door
What is this sheet and pillow laying on the floor
I wore out my welcome
I hear you loud and clear
It's time to get a few things straight around here

I've got no excuse, I should have known
I've got a place to live but I never feel at home
I'm just a stranger in my own house
I've got the keys to the door
But I'm still locked out
Stranger in my own house
I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow this house down
Can't be a stranger in my own house

I've got no excuse, I should have known
With a woman like you I'm better off alone
I'm a stranger in my own house
I've got the keys to the door
But I'm still locked out
I'm just a stranger in my own house
Oh, honey I'm home
I'm just a stranger in my own house
I'm just a stranger in my own house
You got a lion on your hands girl, not a mouse!
I'm just a stranger in my own house
I'm just a stranger in my own house
Well, somebody's got to go...
Stranger
Stranger

Juke Box Hero
(L. Gramm/M. Jones)
Standing in the rain, with his head hung low
Couldn't get a ticket, it was a sold out show
Heard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scene
Put his ear to the wall, then like a distant scream

He heard one guitar, just blew him away
He saw stars in his eyes, and the very next day
Bought a beat up six string in a secondhand store
Didn't know how to play it, but he knew for sure

That one guitar, felt good in his hands
Didn't take long, to understand
Just one guitar, slung way down low
Was one way ticket, only one way to go

So he started rockin'
Ain't never gonna stop
Gotta keep on rockin'
Someday he's gonna make it to the top

And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero
He took one guitar, juke box hero, stars in his eyes
Juke box hero, he'll come alive tonight

In a town without a name, in a heavy downpour
Thought he passed his own shadow, by the backstage door
Like a trip through the past, to that day in the rain
And that one guitar made his whole life change

Now he needs to keep rockin'
He just can't stop
Gotta keep on rockin'
That boy has got to stay on top

And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
Yeah, juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
With that one guitar he'll come alive
Come alive tonight

Yeah, he's gotta keep rockin'
He just can't stop
Gotta keep on rockin'
That boy has got to stay on top

And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
Just one guitar, put stars in his eyes
He's just a juke box hero, aah aah aah
Juke box hero, juke box hero, he's got stars in his eyes
Stars in his eyes

Urgent
(M. Jones)
You're not shy, you get around
You wanna fly, don't want your feet on the ground
You stay up, you won't come down
You wanna live, you wanna move to the sound

Got fire in your veins
Burnin' hot but you don't feel the pain
Your desire is insane
You can't stop until you do it again

But sometimes I wonder as I look in your eyes
Maybe you're thinking of some other guy
But I know, yes I know, how to treat you right
That's why you call me in the middle of the night

You say it's urgent
So urgent, so oh oh urgent
Just wait and see
How urgent my love can be
It's urgent

You play tricks on my mind
You're everywhere but you're so hard to find
You're not warm or sentimental
You're so extreme, you can be so temperamental

But I'm not looking for a love that will last
I know what I need and I need it fast
Yeah, there's one thing in common that we both share
That's a need for for each other anytime, anywhere

It gets so urgent
So urgent
You know it's urgent
I wanna tell you it's the same for me
So oh oh urgent
Just you wait and see
How urgent our love can be
It's urgent

You say it's urgent
Make it fast, make it urgent
Do it quick, do it urgent
Gotta rush, make it urgent
Want it quick
Urgent, urgent, emergency
Urgent, urgent, emergency
Urgent, urgent, emergency
Urgent, urgent, emergency
So urgent, emergency
Emer... emer... emer...
It's urgent

Luanne
(L. Gramm/M. Jones)
Luanne, Luanne
Why do you run and hide?
Luanne, Luanne
Don't keep your love inside

I wait around for you after school
You slip away and I don't see you
Don't know what I'm gonna do
If you can't see how much I need you
We met, one day, and then, you ran away
I've searched the whole town looking for you
I know you're there somewhere

Luanne, Luanne
Why do you run and hide?
Luanne, Luanne
Don't keep your love inside

I write letters that I never send
I keep the words to whisper to you someday
I don't know where and I don't know when
Luanne I'm gonna get to you someway
I want to feel your love so close to me
Give me just half a chance
To prove myself, I need to

Luanne, Luanne
Why do you run and hide?
Luanne, Luanne
Don't keep your love inside

These days true love is so hard to find
Someday I know you're gonna be mine
Luanne, Luanne, Luanne, ooh

Luanne, Luanne, Luanne, Luanne
Why do you run and hide?
Luanne, Luanne, Luanne, Luanne
Don't keep your love inside

Luanne, Luanne
Don't need to run and hide
Luanne, Luanne
Don't keep your love inside

Luanne, Luanne, Luanne, Luanne
I wanna be beside you, can't you understand?
Luanne, Luanne, Luanne, Luanne
Give me a little love, I know you can
Luanne, Luanne
Can't you hear me calling?
Luanne
