Under the Moon

Tonight my heart dreams of you. I'll stay outside
for an hour or two. All the lovers under the sky
tonight are joined by you and I. Under the moon
moon moon, under the stars stars stars, oh baby,
that's where you are together with me me me.
Under the moon moon moon, under the stars stars
stars, oh baby, that's where you are together with
me. You could be in Paris or in Rome. Where the
moon goes is where I call home. You could be in
Moscow or Bombay. Where the stars lead is where
my heart will stay. Under the moon moon moon,
under the stars stars stars, oh baby, that's where
you are together with me me me. Under the moon
moon moon, under the stars stars stars, oh baby,
that's where you are together with me. Drawing
lines from satellites, marking down each compass
site, connecting from my heart to yours under this
moonlit sky tonight, tonight!

Take a Trip (Summer Vacation Version)

First you want my hugging. Then you want my
kissing. Now you want my burning loving. Oh baby
you and I, we should up and split and take a trip.
First you got my hugging. Then you got my kissing.
Soon you'll take possession. Oh baby you and I, we
should up and split and take a trip. Take take take
take a trip, just you and me, oh can't you see, if we
take take take take a trip it's destiny across the
sea of love, across the sea of love. Oh wait a
minute now! I think I've had enough. First we're
moving fast. Then we're moving faster, soon we're
gonna blast off. Oh baby you and I, we should up and
split and take a trip.

All I Say Is "Duh"

You make me want to go, "Oohwah oohwah I love
you yes I do-wah oohwah. Oohwah my love for you is
true-ah." I love you there's no doubt, but I can't spit
it out. I want to tell you I'm so lonely and that you're
my one and only, but all I say is "Duh." Oohwah
oohwah I want to be with you-ah. Oohwah oohwah,
but I can't follow through-ah. I know that you're the
one, but I can't work my tongue. I want to tell you
that I miss you and I really want to kiss you, but all I
say is, "Duh." "I can't live without you," is what I
should say, but the words don't seem to come out
that way. "I need you" turns into ephemera and "I
love you" ends up exactly like "Duh."

The Only Way I Know

There are lots of things that people want to do,
I just want to dream this dream of you. Watch the
lighthouse lights shine through the trees, feel your
breath blowing on the breeze. That's the only way I
know to let you know that I think of you when
you're far away. And when you're in a different city
different state, just pick a night when the clouds
are away. We'll pick a star and we'll pick a time and
when you look we'll see eye to eye. And when I read
your letters don't you know I know. When I answer
your calls don't you know I know. When you tell me
you love me don't you know that I already already
already know. It's an old song I know that that's
true, but I'd love to sing it for you. I'd let you hear it
whenever you want and know girl you've stolen my heart.

Just Another Magic Moment

It's just another magic moment moonlit sky
behind the fog. The wind might blow, the leaves
might fall, but with you here I've got it all. And I will
never let you down or show you up or lose my
ground and I will always love you, never stop or
pause or think I've had enough's enough, I've said
enough and nothing could be good enough for you. I
gave my heart to you and I love you. It's just another
magic moment streets gone black with new
found rain, the sounds of tires and brakes and
horns, the warning bells of passing trains. All the
places that I used to go, the things I used to do and
all the people that I used to know, now everything
has changed, now that I have you here by my side.

Imagine

For you I'd write a book and win the Nobel prize.
If you were blind I would give you my eyes. I would
lasso the moon down from the stars and hand it to
you in a crystal jar. But I don't think you love and I
don't think you care. I dont think you love me like I
love... I would risk my and cross the ocean blue just
to prove that my love is true. I would bring you back
some fine Italian art, if that's the thing it takes to
let me win your heart. I don't think that I can stand
another lonely night or a day when the sun hides
from sight. I never met a girl I love as much as I love
can you imagine the things you've put me through?

That's All She Wrote

I don't know if it's right or if its wrong or if it's
left up for me to decide what to do without you. I
ask the moon, but the moon's not there. I look
around and I look everywhere for a clue, but no
trace remains. A broken heart is all I've got, no
story line to fill out this meagre twicetold plot of
you and me and me and you, but now the inkwell has
gone and dried and that's all she wrote. I could fabricate
the truth a bit and bit by bit I could make it
fit into something I could recognize. I could cut it
down to size and modify, even exorcise the part,
where I first realized that a broken heart is all I've
got, no shore line to fill out this meagre twicetold
plot of you and me and me and you, but now the
inkwell has gone and dried. I've been turning back
the pages, going through them line by line, but
everything I find just shows that you were never
mine. I look in the index for your name, but the
results are just the same. So I sit here all alone
repeating this refrain, "That's all she wrote."

Better Than That

If there's a time and a place for all things in that
case if the time is right and the place is right, you
should act and enact all the plans that you've made
and start again maybe start with me. Because I
know you're lonely and I know that you hurt inside. I
see you with him and I know he's no good for you
and I could do better than that. There's no time like
the present, it's here and it's gone or it lasts too
long and nothing gets done and nothing is worse
than when nothing gets done and if you feel alone
you're not the only one. Because I know you're lonely
and I know that you hurt inside. I see you with him
and I know he's no good for you and I could do better
than that. And I could do better than that.

And a man needs something when he ain't got
nothing to hang on to...

I'm All For You (Boom Booom Boom)

I knew from the start, deep in my heart, the way
it crashed and bashed and banged around a lot. That
this love I feel could not be unreal, no way to deny
my court of no appeal. Never waited, no hesitation,
till our lips meet and my heart beats out a boom
boom boom, baby you're the one for me. Boom boom
boom, baby you're the one. Boom boom boom, baby
you're the one for me. Baby can't you see that I'm all
for you. I plotted and schemed and dreamt up a
dream where baby you and I we really made the
scene. But then the buzzer goes off and really
throws it all off, leaves me at the blocks when
every hope has run off. And try as I might, it never
comes out right. I dig you something fierce, but the
only time I get to see you is baby when we turn out
the light.

Too Good To Be True (Cryin', Cryin', Cryin')

I'm thinking about me and you and what I've been
thinking seems too good to be true. Because I, I
grow so tired of crying crying crying all the time. So
what if you and what if I, we got together for one
last try. Because I, I grow so tired of crying crying
crying all the time. Pretend it's our first kiss and
not our last, that the age of miracles hasn't past.
And when you drive away don't look back. Just never
forget me when you're back on track because I'll still
be here dreaming only of you.
