Tuesday's Child

Amanda Marshall Tuesday's Child Lyrics
1.I Believe In You

Lyricist:Marshall/ Eric Bazilian
Writer(s):Marshall/ Eric Bazilian

Somewhere there's a river, looking for a stream
Somewhere there's a dreamer, lookin' for a dream
Somewhere there's a drifter, trying to find his way
Somewhere someone's waiting, to hear somebody say

I believe in you
I can't even count the ways that I believe in you
And all I want to do is help you to
Believe in you

Somewhere someone's reachin', trying to grab that ring
Somewhere there's a silent voice, learning how to sing
Some of us can't move ahead, we're paralyzed with fear
And everybody's listening, cause we all need to hear

I believe in you
I can't even count the ways that I believe in you
And all I want to do is help you to
Believe in you

I will hold you up
I will help you stand, I will comfort you when you need a friend
I will be the voice that's calling out

I believe in you
And there are just so many ways that I believe in you
Baby, what else can I do but believe in you
Believe in you
All I want to know is you believe
Believe in you


2.Love Lift Me

Somebody told me / Once in a lifetime
Destiny finds you and blows you away / Spins you in circles /
Pulls
you in pieces / Bleeds you like Jesus / And goes on its way /
But it's
oh so simple sometimes / Just to lay your heart open wide / If
you
wanna get to heaven / Then you gotta
take the ride

CHORUS:
Love lift me / Wherever you are /Convince me / I'm safe in your
arms
Love lift me / Make sense of it all / Teach me to fly / And
don't let me fall

Somebody told me / Love makes you stupid / Makes you go crazy
Makes you go blind / Comes uninvited / And leaves when it
wants to / Calls you at midnight and ties
up your line / But it's oh so sweet when it's right (there's
nothin'
better) / And you swear you won't but you might (you're gonna
try)
Gotta fumble in the dark if you wanna see the light

(CHORUS)

And when it's all said and done / It's just the same for
everyone
You're busy making your plans / Love's like a bird baby / Flying
out of
your hands

And it's oh so hard to explain (we don't know nothin') / And
your heart
gets hold of your brain (but still we try) / Better batten down
the
hatches baby / Here we go again

Love lift me / Wherever you are / Convince me / I'm safe in your
arms
/ Love lift me
I'm waiting on you / 'Cause nothing can
lift me / The way that you do / Love lift me / Love lift me /
Love lift me
(only love can take me higher) / I wanna fly


3.Why Don't You Love Me

Why am I lonely
You're sitting right here
Why am I talking
It's like I'm talking to the air
What am I looking for
That just isn't there
Why am I angry
How'd it get so bad
And why am I missing
What we never really had

CHORUS
Why don't you love me
The way I love you
Why don't you feel things
As deep as I do
We've got a fundamental difference
In matters of emotion
But I need to feel you need me
Like a river needs an ocean
Baby why don't you love me

Who am I kidding
It wasn't meant to be
But you wanted a believer
And I needed to believe
For every wall you built around you
I learned a brand new way to climb
And if I could've been your angel
I would've found a way to fly

CHORUS

SOLO
I don't understand you
What's it take to make you cry
And if leaving you don't break you
Then baby what's it matter why

CHORUS


4.Too Little Too Late

Tuesday night 7:30
I hear a voice on the telephone
Doin' fine then it hits me
The voice that I am hearing means you're not alone
I thought it would be easy but it's not
And now I would give all that I've got

CHORUS
But it's too little too late
No going back to the start
You only lose when you hestitate
And now that I would give you my heart
It's too little too late

Two more weeks
I start to wonder
If what I'm missing's really worth these tears
What's the point you've found another
And I just keep on talking but you just can't hear
You swore you'd wait forever and a day
I never thought I'd live to hear you say

CHORUS

So mad about me
You couldn't live without me
Now you say you're moving on
I took the long way
I told you maybe someday
I guess I made you wait too long

SOLO
I know I've only got myself to blame
And I've still got my pride but just the same

It's just too little too late
No going back to the start
You only lose when you hestitate
And now I wanna give you my heart
And now you tell me

That's too little too late
No going back to the start
You only lose when you hestitate
And now that I would give you my heart
It's too little too late
It's too little too late


5.If I Didn't Have You

I don't know what I was thinking
'Til I was thinking of you
I don't remember a thing before I opened my eyes
And you came into view
I don't know what I was doing
When there was nothing to do
Must've been waiting for someone, baby
Now I can see - I was waiting for you

I'd give up my sight just to see you
I'd beg, I would borrow and steal
I'd cut off my hands just to touch you
And tear out my heart so you'd know how I feel
There's nowhere that I wouldn't follow
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
'Cause I wouldn't wanna be me
If I didn't have you

Driving myself to distraction
Until you got in my way
I was just whistling Dixie 'til you struck up the band
And they started to play
I don't know how I was living
Until you came in my life
I always knew there was something wrong
Then you came along
Baby, you made it right

I'd give up my sight just to see you
I'd beg, I would borrow and steal
I'd cut off my hands just to touch you
And tear out my heart so you'd know how I feel
There's nowhere that I wouldn't follow
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
'Cause I wouldn't wanna be me
If I didn't have you

I was alone in the silence
'Til I was hearing your voice
I couldn't see my way clear until you parted the clouds
And you gave me a choice
I couldn't pick up the pieces
'Til I was falling apart
I didn't know I was bleeding
'Til your love fixed this hole, baby, here in my heart

I'd give up my sight just to see you
I'd beg, I would borrow and steal
I'd cut off my hands just to touch you
And tear out my heart so you'd know how I feel
There's nowhere that I wouldn't follow
There's no place that I'd rather be
This life without you would be hollow
This love is a gift, and you gave it to me
All that I am, you have made me
And baby, I know that it's true
I'd give it all up in a heartbeat
Just to spend every moment with you
There's no place that I wouldn't follow
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
'Cause I wouldn't wanna be me
If I didn't have you


6.Ride

If you need some transportation
From a world of tribulation
Tell me your destination
I'll be I'll be your ride
If you're out of inspiration
All you feel is desperation
Consider this an invitation
I'll be

CHORUS
I'll be your ride
We'll get a running start and we'll take to the sky baby
Ride
Keep your hands on the wheel and your eyes on the prize
And ride

And when the world that you've created
Had got you feeling tired and jaded
Get your spirits elevated
Dig down way deep inside
And when you're feeling scorned and hated
Under appreciated
And your guilding light had faded
I'll be

CHORUS

SOLO
And when you call but they don't remember
When your mail says return to sender
Keep the faith baby don't surrender
I'm on your side
I'll be your I'll be your
I'll be

CHORUS


7.Wishful Thinking

When I sleep through the night
I always dream that we are back together
must be wishful thinking
When I wake up alone
the bed seems oh so empty
I start sinking through waves of wishful thinking

I was the one who said I needed room to breathe
you were the one who said that love was meant for you and me
I was afraid to give too much
you gave the world to me every time we touched

when I wake late at night
I reach for your shoulder
come up empty
I don't know what I was dreaming
then I whisper your name
all I hear is the sound of my heart sinking
is it only wishful thinking

so soft your sighs, so sweet your lips when we made love
didn't know how happy girl you made me
until you were gone
didn't see the warning signs you gave
how could I let you go
I'd give a lifetime just to have you one more day

is it only wishful thinking
tell me I'm not dreaming
maybe you'll come back one day
is it only wishful thinking
only wishful thinking
maybe you'll come back to stay
come back baby

when the night starts to fall
I swear I hearing you breathing in the darkness
I could spend my whole life dreaming
how our bodies will burn
one on one I ache for your return
don't let my heart keep sinking

is it only wishful thinking
don't let my heart keep sinking
maybe you'll come back one day
someone tell me
is it only wishful thinking
that maybe you'll come back to stay
you can stay

when I sleep through the night
I always dream that we are back together
is this only wishful thinking
