Winger - Down Incognito



"Down Incognito"

Days undercover
All out of sync
Haven't paid the rent
Even talking in my sleep

My monkey's M.O.
Is all out of commission
I'm waiting for a good
old-fashioned cure
For my condition

'Cos I'm all out of charm
And I'm all out of money
Hanging
Down Incognito
Waiting for the sun to shine

Fools to the left
Jokers to the right
Waitin' for the rest of us
To come and take a bite

But I'll wait it out
Call it superstition
I'll be fine for now
Just reminiscing

(Repeat Chorus)

I just had to let it go
Took all the pennies I had
Threw 'em in the wishing well
And I wish you well

Days undercover
All out of sync
Haven't paid the rent
Even talking in my sleep

My monkey's M.O.
Is all out of commission
I'm waiting for a good
old-fashioned cure
For my condition

(Repeat Chorus)

Me and my amigos
Down Incognito

Night Ranger - When You Close Your Eyes



"When You Close Your Eyes"

What do you do
When it's falling apart
And you know it was going
From the very start
Do you close your eyes
And dream about me

A girl in love
With a gleam in her eye
I was a yonger boy
All dressed in white
We're older now
Do you still think about me

I remember we learned about love
In the back of a Chevrolet
Well it felt so good to be young
Feels like yesterday

When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me

I guess I don't know what I'm thinking
Coming off a hard night of drinking
Angle come closer to me
I need a soul to bleed on

It could'a been done
In a different kinda way
But that ain't you
You play tough when you play
It's over now
I bet you still think about me

I remember I held you so tight
And we danced the night away
With the moves of two wide eyed kids
I need you so much today

When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
(repeat)

I remember we learned about love
In the back of a Chevrolet
No good for an old memory
To mean so much today
(repeat chorus)

Night Ranger - Don't Tell Me You Love Me



"Don't Tell Me You Love Me"

It ain't the way you move
It ain't the way that you move me
Oh no

It ain't the way that you shake me
Oh no
I've lived twenty-five years I'm a
kid on the run
I've got a pistol for action

Don't tell me you love me

I love the way you use
I love the way that you use me
Oh yeah
I love the way you shoot
I love the way that you shoot to kill me
Oh yeah
It's taken miles and lines to learn the
Right from the wrong
I keep you hanging on

CHORUS:
Don't tell me you love me
Don't tell me you love me
Don't tell me, I don't wanna know
Don't tell me you love me

Loverboy - Hot Girls In Love



"Hot Girls In Love"

She's so young at heart
She likes the pleasure of his company
She cuts the inside groove
With her silver spoon
She likes her tapes on 10
And it's the same as her anatomy
She's on a rainbow cruise
All the way to my room

She's turnin' on the heat
She's got the magic touch
She's turnin' on the heat
And it's a little too much
She's turnin' on the heat
And it's a hundred above, yeah
Hot girls in love
I'm in love

Too many men to please
She counts them all on her rosary
You know you might get burned
So be careful where you touch
She gets it when she can
Don't need no anniversary
And she deserves the best, yeah
A cut above the rest

She's turnin' on the heat
She's got the magic touch
She's turnin' on the heat
Ooooh, it's a little too much
She's turnin' on the heat
And it's a hundred above
Hot girls in love
And baby, I'm in love

Some say she do
Some say she don't
Some say she will (she will)
And some say she won't (she won't)
Some say she can't
Well, I know she can
I say I got to be
Her lovin' man, yea-ah

[Instrumental Interlude]

She's turnin' on the heat
She's got the magic touch
She's turnin' on the heat

Hot girls in love
Hot girls in love
It's a hundred above
The hot girls in love, yeah
Be careful where you touch
'Cause it's a little too much
She's got everything she'll need, yeah
But she doesn't want me
She's turning on the heat
She's turning on the heat
She's got that look in her eye
I think I've got to know why
Oooooh, hot girls in love, in love
Aaaahhh
In love
In love

38 Special, Fantasy Girl



"Fantasy Girl"

Lately I'm learnin
That so many yearnings are never to be
The childhood illusions are merely delusions of a girl that I see
In my minds eye
I see clearly a vision of how it could be
Me and my fantasy girl
Hold on to me
Be my fantasy girl
Don't set me free
Now I've had my share
Sometimes I swear that I've had enough
You end up in sorrow
Broken tomorrows, love can be tough
But my minds eyed sees a vision of true love and how it should be

Me and my fantasy girl
Hold on to me
Be my fantasy girl
Don't set me free
Be my fantasy
Yeah yeah yeah
I see clearly a vision of how it could be, yeah
Be my fantasy
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Be my fantasy girl
Hold on to me
Your my fantasy girl
Don't set me free
Be my fantasy girl
Hold on to me
Your my fantasy girl
Don't set me free

Donnie Iris - Ah Leah



"Ah Leah"

Yeah it's been a long long time
such a site, you're
lookin' better than a
body has a right to.
Don't you know we're
playin' with the fire?
But we can stop this
burnin' desire, Leah

(Ah! Leah!)
Here we go again
(Ah! Leah!)
Is it ever gonna end?
(Ah! Leah!)
Here we go again!
(Ah! Leah!)

I see your lips and I wonder
who's been kissin' them
I never knew how badly
I was missin' them
We both know we're
never going to make it,
But when we touch
we never have to fake it, Leah!

(Ah! Leah!)
Here we go again
(Ah! Leah!)
Is it ever gonna end?
(Ah! Leah!)
Here we go again
(Ah! Leah!)
We ain't learned our lesson yet

(instrumental)

Baby it's no good
we're just askin' for trouble
I can touch you but I don't
know how to love you
It ain't no use
we're headed for disaster
Our minds said "No"
But our hearts were
talkin' faster, Leah!

(Ah! Leah!)
Here we go again
(Ah! Leah!)
Here we go again
(Ah! Leah!)
Leah, Leah, Leah

Donnie Iris & The Cruisers: Love Is Like A Rock



"Love Is Like A Rock"

You can't depend on your teacher
You can't depend on your preacher
You can't depend on politicians
You can't depend on superstitions

[Chorus]
Love can rock you
Never stop you
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah,
Love is like a rock

You can't rely on Mother Nature
You can't rely on your paychecks
You can't depend on your doctor
You can't depend on your lawyer

[Chorus: x2]

Andrew Gold - Lonely Boy



"Lonely Boy"

He was born on a summer day, 1951
And with the slap of a hand
He had landed as an only son
His mother and father said "what a lovely boy"
We'll teach him what we learned
Ah yes, just what we learned
We'll dress him up warmly and
We'll send him to school
It'll teach him how to fight
To be nobody's fool

Oh, oh, what a lonely boy
Oh, what a lonely boy
Oh, what a lonely boy

In the summer of '53 his mother
Brought him a sister
But she told him "we must attend to her needs"
"She's so much younger than you"
Well, he ran down the hall and he cried
Oh, how could his parents have lied
When they said he was an only son
He thought he was the only one

Oh, oh, what a lonely boy
Oh, what a lonely boy
Oh, what a lonely boy

[Instrumental Interlude]

He left home on a winter day, 1969
And he hoped to find all the love
He had lost in that earlier time
Well, his sister grew up
And she married a man
He gave her a son
Ah yes, a lovely son
They dressed him up warmly
They sent him to school
It taught him how to fight
To be nobody's fool

Oh, oh, what a lonely boy
Oh, what a lonely boy
Oh, what a lonely boy

Kenny Nolan I Like Dreamin



"I Like Dreamin"

I like dreamin'
Cause dreamin' can make you mine
I like dreamin'
Closing my eyes and feeling fine
When the lights go down
I'm holding you so tight
Got you in my arms
And it's paradise 'til the morning light

I see us on the shore beneath the bright sunshine
We've walked along St Thomas beach a million times
Hand in hand, two barefoot lovers kissin' in the sand
Side by side, the tide rolls in
I'm touching you, you're touching me
If only it could be

I like dreamin'
Cause dreamin' can make you mine
I like dreamin'
Closing my eyes and feeling fine
When the lights go down
I'm holding you so tight
Got you in my arms
And it's paradise 'til the morning light

Through each dream how our love has grown
I see us with our children and our happy home
Little smiles, so warm and tender looking up at us
Blessed by love, the world we share
Until I wake and reach for you
And you're just not there

I like dreamin'
'Cause dreaming can make you mine
I like holding you close and touching your skin
Even if it's in my mind
Sweet dream baby, I love you
Oooh, my sweet dream baby
Don't keep me waitin' all my life
I need you
Sweet dream baby, I love you
Oooh, sweet dream baby
You in my dreams every night
