Lyrics

It’ Alright
Written by Eilleen Twain & Paul Sabu

Nothing's better than spending time together
Hangin' 'round
Wish it was forever, love and sunny weather
Shinnin' down

Ooh, you're my lover, there's no other, yeah
Friends like me and you can share a little lovin' too

Chorus:
And it's alright
We're gettin' it together every night
Makin' every minute very right
Lovin' everything we feel, yeah
And it's so good
Doin' all the things we never could
Even if we're not sure that we should
Together it's you and me, yeah

Buildin' sandcastles, bein' little rascals
Havin' fun
Playin' on the beach, just stayin' outta reach
Of everyone

Ooh let's forever stay together, yeah
Let's keep what we got forgettin' what we ought to do

Chorus:

Guitar Solo

Chorus:

And it's alright
We're gettin' it together every night
Makin' every minute very right
Lovin' everything we feel, yeah…fade

Love
Written by Eilleen Twain & Paul Sabu

Time goes by, I know that I'm learnin'
Love, it lies no wonder I'm hurtin'

I can see the lies all over your face
Only hope that time can help erase

The painful tears, that I'm cryin'
I can see in your eyes your love is dyin'

I should've know that you lied when you said to believe
That you'd love me enough that you'd never leave

But you just turned and walked away
You left me standing in the rain
You didn't take my love for real
Now how am I to feel

Love comes in and goes out
Like a season
You came in and walked out
For no reason

Do you really know what love is about
You really had me thinkin' there wasn't a doubt

That you would love me forever
You wanted me to know
That I had to love you now or never
But then you let me go

All Fired Up, No Place To Go
Written by Eilleen Twain & Paul Sabu

From the inside lookin' out
You're the one that I've been thinkin' about
I'm a lonely little fool over you babe

Got me dazed and confused
Got my body cryin' the blues
Come and see me, got a line I'm throwing to you

Bridge:
You're the mountain that I want to climb
I won't stop 'til I’ll reach it this time
I just can't get you outta my mind

Chorus:
I'm all fired up with no where to burn
Gotta hold myself steady
I'm all fired up with nowhere to burn
I know what I want and I'm ready

You passed every test
You left me here starved and obsessed
With a hunger that begs for you

Draw, aim, fire
You can't run from my desire
It's my arrow through your heart surrender to me

The Heart Is Blind
Written by Paul Janz & Rhonda Fleming

I hear the slammin' of the door
There you go again
I can't take it anymore
That's just the way it is

But then I listen to my heart
And the anger fades
I wanna hold ya
Never let you go away

Bridge:
I feel a ragging war inside
A battle between the heart and mind
But love wins when I close my eyes

Chorus:
The heart is blind
It will not see
When hope is gone
The heart will still believe
I see you go
Through tearful eyes
But for the sake of love
The heart is blind

I know there's been a lot of night's
When we couldn't sleep
The words are like a knife
They cut so deep

But when I listen to my heart
It's deeper than the pain
I really love ya
And that's all that matters anyway

Bridge:
Chorus:

I'll always love you
And hard times can only make us strong
If we keep holding on

Chorus:

For the love of Him
Written by Bobbi Martin & Al Mortimer

When he opens the door says I'm home
Be aware of the look in his eyes
They'll tell you the mood he's in
What kind of day it's been

Chorus:
For the love of him
Make him your reason for living
Give all the love you can give him

All the love you can

There'll be times he won't say a word
And you'll wonder if its something you said
A gentle touch of your hand
Will tell him you understand

Chorus:

Little things he forgets to do
Have you told him today “I love you”
When he reaches out be there
Show him how much you care

He's a man and a man has to try
Let him run, let him fall, let him cry
His world won't fall apart
If you take him into your heart

Chorus 3x…...and fade

Wild And Wicked
Written by Eilleen Twain & Paul Sabu

Full moon I’m cravin' just a little
Young love from an innocent one
No shame it's purely noncommittal
It's the only way to go if you wanna have fun

Kickstart the rythm pull out on the road
Relyin' on an overload
I need some baby blues reflectin' in the mirror
Tellin' me all the things I wanna hear

Bridge:
Loved and lost
I paid a painful cost
Lived and learned
I've reached the point of no return

Chorus:
Wild and wicked
Wild and wicked for love
Wild and wicked
Wild and wicked for love

I need a guy that's full of sex appeal
I need a guy that looks good in the red
I want someone with a heart that I can steal
I want someone to drive me outta my head

Tight jeans, cute and the way I might behave
Out for trouble, you might say
All those things you said it
Oh, I want him in the back that way

Bridge:
Chorus 2x:

Guitar Solo

I Ain't Gonna Eat Out My Heart Anymore
Written by Lori Burton & Pamela Sawyer

I admit you got the biggest brown eyes and you know how to pout your lips to tantalize,
show him babe, you know you can get any girl you want, go ahead, do it, and don't say you don't, you know you do

Chorus:
Well baby, I ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore
Ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore
Ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore

Just 'cause I ain't sayin' it you should be ashamed what I've been seein,' babe
You better watch you step or you can bet you're gonna loose the best thing you ever had

Chorus:

I love you, I love you
I do babe
But you ain't gonna cheat on me
I need you, I need you
I do
Choose, is it her or me

Chorus:

Guitar Solo

I love you, I love you
I do babe
But you ain't gonna cheat on me
I need you, I need you
I do
Choose, is it her or me

Chorus..….fade

Send It With Love
Written by Eilleen Twain & Paul Sabu

Whenever I think of you, it seems so unfair
That I have to close my eyes to see you there.
I know I'm makin it now, but its tough.
I can't begin to tell you enough
The pain is too much.

Chorus:
And I give my heart in a prayer
And send it with love.
You just say the word, I'll be there.
Send it with love.
Send it with love.

I've come to realize that I'm on my own.
So whenever I'm scared inside I dream that your home.
Hard to say how everything happened so fast.
So many questions to ask.
Oh.

Chorus:

Is it right or is it wrong to want you here so much?
But I can never bring you back, so I feel what I can't touch.

Guitar Solo

I've come to realize that I'm on my own…..

Chorus 2x

Half Breed
Written by Al Capps & Mary Dean

My father married a Cherokee
My mother's people were ashamed of me
The Indian's said that I was white by law
The white man always called me Indian Squaw

Chorus:
Half breed
It’s (that’s) all I ever heard
Half breed
How I learned to hate the word
Half breed
She's no good they warned
Both sides were against me since the day I was born

We never settled went from town to town
When you're not welcome you don't hang around
The other children always laughed at me
Give her a feather she's a Cherokee

Chorus:

We weren't accepted and I felt the shame
Fifteen I left and tell me whose to blame
My life since then has been from man to man
But I can't run away from what I am

Chorus.........fade

Hate to Love
Written by Eilleen Twain & Paul Sabu

Midnight sky shining on my face
I feel the waves embracing me
I'm here to find some peace of mind
Time and tide it waits for me
It waits for me, yeah

Chorus:
So here I am again somewhere in between
(Hate to Love)
Trying to find reality in a dream
(Hate to love)
I'm afraid to say I need someone like you
(Hate to love)
I hate to love

Faded photograph
A picture perfect love
Locked inside this frame of mine
Forgiving truth
Is trust betrayed
If time heals all, that left me behind
It left me behind

Chorus:

Loneliness and innocence
With you invade my heart
I've learned to hate the truth of love
It's tearing me apart

Chorus 2x….....fade

Bite My Lip
Written by Eilleen Twain & Paul Sabu

I gotta a 9 to 5 that seems like it never ends
I gotta touchy boss that wants me in his hands, yeah
And no is a word that he doesn't understand

He says baby can you work with me till 9
I know he knows that I can use the overtime, yeah
But I can tell he's gonna hand me another line

Chorus:
Gotta bite my lip
Keep it in inside
Gotta bite my lip
Just let it ride
Gotta bite my lip
Watch what I say
Gotta bite my lip
Just (and) walk away

Yeah, I'm rushing home
I gotta hot date tonight, yeah
I’ve got us chilled champagne
For a dinner by candle light
He's gonna be here soon
And everything’s gonna be alright

I get a call and guess who's on the other line
I can't make it tonight
Can we do it another time, yeah
Oh, what the nerve
I'd like to give him a piece of my mind

Chorus 2x…......fade

Two Hearts, One Love
Written by Eilleen Twain & Paul Sabu

You are the moonlight I am the stars
Together we light up the night
You are the passion I am the flame
We are both one and the same

I am the taker you are the chance
This is the rule of romance
I am the seeker you are the find
Together we are two of a kind

Chorus:
Two hearts, one love beating together
I am yours you are mine
Two hearts, one love always forever
Standing the test of time

I can be happy you can be sad
Together things aren’t so bad
You are the sailor I am the sea
The treasure of eternity

Chorus:

Here we are the two of us
Nothing in our way
Wanting you wanting me
Everyday

Chorus:

You are the passion I am the flame
We are both one and the same

Chorus 2x….....fade

Rhythm Made Me Do It
Written by Eilleen Twain & Paul Sabu

I just can't sleep so I get in my car and I drive
I'm on the 101 and I'm cruisin' by 105
Got the radio cranked and the rhythm is comin' alive

Got the wind in my face and I'm ready to take on the night
Not a worry in sight the DJ is rockin' me wild
Things are startin' to shake but hold on 'cause I ain't gonna break

Red light in the rear view mirror
(Well, hey you pull it over here)
He says miss just step away from the car
(Hands on your head move and you're dead)
But officer

Chorus:
The rhythm made me do it
The rhythm got me high
The rhythm made me do it
What can I say
The rhythm made me do it

He's walkin' real slow and I know that he's checkin' me out
Officer please can you tell me what this is about
You're doin' 105 and I'm lucky that you're still alive

Bridge:
He says baby get behind the wheel
I wanna make your tyres squeal
Hey, baby lets make some noise
Turn it on, turn it up

Chorus:

Guitar Solo

Got the wind in our faces we’ve been drivin' all though the night
Got the red lights on and the DJ is rockin' us right
Things are startin' to shake so hold on 'cause we ain't gonna break

Bridge:

Chorus….fade

Luv Eyes
Written by Eilleen Twain & Paul Sabu

This friend of mine
He looks real good
He drives a fast car
And lives in Hollywood
He treats me like his little sis
I gotta let him know I want more than this

I want more

His girlfriend Jane is a prissy brat
I don't know what he sees in that
Think she's cool in her short tight dress
Pick away the glamour and she's just a mess

Do you ever think of me as more than just a friend
Ever? Will this dream never end?

Chorus:
I got L-U-V eyes lookin at you
I gotta B-I-G heart made for two
Would you feel the same if you only knew
I got L-U-V eyes lookin at you

I wanna close my eyes and take a deep breath
I wanna be strong but I'm scared to death
I wanna put your arms around my waist
And tell you that I love you right to your face

Do you ever think of me as more than just a friend
Ever? Will this dream never end?

Chorus:

This friend of mine
He looks real good
Guess who made it to Hollywood
No more Jane
I got her beat
Now I'm sittin pretty
In the front seat

Have you ever looked at me and felt the feeling of heaven
The two of us in love

Chorus….. fade

Lost My Heart
Written by Eilleen Twain & Paul Sabu

Kiss me all over is all I can say
I've waited a lifetime to feel this way
You leave me breathless
And out of my mind
I'm just so helpless
So baby be kind

Chorus:
I lost my heart
When I found you
Yeah, it hurts so good
To lose
I lost my heart
When I found you
I lost my heart to you

You touched me in places
Deep in my heart
Imagination runs wild in the dark
Babe, I surrender
Only to you
I can't remember
How it feels to be blue

Chorus:

Guitar Solo

You leave me breathless
And out of my mind
I'm just so helpless
So baby be kind

Chorus…....fade

Don't Gimme That (Once Over)
Written by Eilleen Twain & Paul Sabu

How can you tell me it wasn't for real
Step into my shoes and see how it really feels
I know, I know why you do it
Still I can't stand you putting me though it

Chorus:
Don't gimme that
Once over
Don't gimme that
Once over
That's just on step over the line

Once upon a time I let you near
There was no reason that I had to fear
I know, I know it's easy for you to leave
But this it's better for me to give and receive

Chorus:

You made the place and time
How did you fake that crime

Once in awhile I'll think of you
Maybe somethin' old or somethin' brand new
I know, I know I know where you'll be
Somewhere in the night lookin' for me

You can seek but you'll never find
'Cause you can't go back in time

Chorus 3x...….fade
