1.Bridge Of Spies

Lyricist:Decker Carol Ann, Ronald Phillip Rogers

So long I've waited
For you to come to me
Anticipating what I would say

And no one could know
How it feels to be
In your embrace again
So tender

Yeah, there were times
I could not hold on
With each day that came
A little more hope was gone

I'd look into my heart
To see what I had done
And now I can't believe
The day is finally come

I am walking over the bridge of spies today
Freedom is only one more step away
You only have to hold me
Take me to you

Now the things we wanted
Well, they're so far away it seems
Your love is a distant thing
That I kept deep inside of me

Now if I could show you
Where I lived in my fantasy
On the continent of dreams
You'd be with me

I don't know if I could go through it all again
For what's the point if you are never free to say
This is what I believe, this is a part of me
No hero, no regrets but only meant to be

I am walking over the bridge of spies today
Freedom is only one more step away
You only have to hold me
Yeah, yeah

Walking, over the bridge of spies today
Freedom is only one step away, yeah
You only have to hold me
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Hold me, hold me
Hold me, hold me
Hold me, hold me


2.Heart and Soul

Lyricist:Carol Ann Decker, Ronald Rogers

More than an ocean, keeps us apart
I feel a tearing in half of my heart
A walk on the water, is all that I need
But miracles are not happening

You're not even listening to me
Leaving you ain't easy now
But loving you's the harder part
You never want me for myself
And I've needed you right from the very start
Oh, won't you stay and try to

Give a little bit of heart and soul
Give a little bit of love to grow
Give a little bit of heart and soul
And don't you make me beg for love
Give a sign 'cos' I need to know
Give a little bit of heart and soul

Now listen to me I wish that I was wrong
But you don't feel that way
We drift apart with each passing day
You never seem to notice any more

Living in a fantasy, there's never any room to breath
Hoping every waking hour
You'll turn around and say that we can stay
Won't you even try to

Give a little bit of heart and soul
Give a little bit of love to grow
Give a little bit of heart and soul
And don't you make me beg for love
Give a sign 'cos' I need to know
Give a little bit of heart and soul

Somehow I lost my way
Looking to see something in your eyes
But lover will never compromise
There is the politics of life

Give a little bit of heart and soul
Give a little bit of love to grow
Give a little bit of heart and soul,
And don't you make me beg for love
Give a sign 'cos' I need to know
Give a little bit of heart and soul


3.Sex Talk

Lyricist:Decker Carol Ann, Ronald Phillip Rogers

I just feel like talking to someone
I don't care who it is
I just wanna have a laugh
You know how it is, yeah, yeah

All of the day in the same old room
Well, I'm going out of my mind
And I can't throw this out of the window
It's mine all mine, you better believe it

Hell, you know I mean it
I've been on my own too long
In desperation I learned many things
But mostly it's each to their own

Sex talk
Intimate strangers
Well, it's only sex talking on the phone
Love without a face

I just need a pat on the back
Tell me that I'm still alive
Like Spider-Man I'm climbing the walls
I want my prize, yeah, yeah

I don't remember when it crept up behind me
I don't know when I got so wet
All I know is I was looking for something
But I forget

You see that I can't go on living like this
I've been on my own too long
You know I looked around, never found love
Far away it called one day

Sex talk
Intimate strangers
Well, it's only sex talking on the phone
Love, love, love, without a face

I don't remember when it crept up behind me
I don't know when I got so wet
You see all I know is I was looking for something
What was it? What was it? I forget

Ah, well, it's easy for you to be shocked at what I do
You've probably got someone at home
I never had anyone to love me, anyone to hold me
I take what I can on the telephone

Sex talk
Intimate strangers
Well, it's only sex talking on the phone
My kind of love without a face

And we talk, oh, yeah
Intimate strangers
Well, it's only sex talking on the phone
Love, love, love, without a face

Gimme your love
Gimme your love
Talk to me, who, yeah

Sex talk, we talk
We have a good time on the telephone lines
We talk, oh, yeah

Intimate strangers
Well, it's only sex talking on the phone
You say what I want on the telephone
Sex talk, oh, yeah


4.Monkey House

Lyricist:Decker Carol Ann, Ronald Phillip Rogers

In the healthy, wealthy state of mental hygiene
We will teach you how to think a clean way
There'll be no more dirty looks and no more dirty books
Now for your own good, we will take the choice away

There is a limit in the state of mental hygiene
Oh, to the difference of opinion we can allow, oh yeah
Now we must close an open mind if it's open to a different kind
Well, how can you hurt us

If we clean up in the monkey house tonight
Oh yeah, you're gonna be alright
We clean up in the monkey house, house tonight

Now we can make or break your mind with mental hygiene
And you will see things in the way, yeah, we think you should,
oh yeah
In the quiet of the night, the first cut is the deepest in the
fight
How can you blame us

If we clean up in the monkey house tonight
Oh yeah, you're gonna be alright
We clean up in the monkey house
We're gonna take you, we're gonna wash you whiter than white
In the monkey house, oh yeah

In the quiet of the night, you can hear your own heart beating
In the quiet of the night, we'll take your breath away
Now you're gonna listen to the things we say

We gotta clean up in the monkey house tonight
Oh yeah, you're gonna be alright
We clean up in the monkey house
We're gonna take you, we're gonna wash you whiter than white
In the monkey house tonight, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, yeah
We clean up in the monkey house


5.You Give Up

Lyricist:Decker Carol Ann, Ronald Phillip Rogers

Ooh, yeah, ooh yeah

Another winter of your discontent
I know how you scream and shout
When nothing you see makes any sense

Invaluable excuses drop like pearls in your self defense
You never do nothin' about nothin', no
Where's all your confidence?

Why can't you reach for a closer dream?
The reason you fail is you go to extremes
You don't have to lie, you gotta try
If you fall, you can call, but you don't have to crawl

You give up, hah, baby, when it gets too rough
You ain't got what it takes, no, you ain't tough enough
You give up, you're lazy when it starts to rock
And when you see a way out, you go, ooh, yeah

Another day goes by
Another tale to tell
How you nearly made it, oh, so far
Yeah, you nearly did really well

Now, why can't you reach for a closer dream?
The people who care, they don't mind where you've been
You don't have to lie, you gotta try
If you fall, you can call, but you don't have to crawl

You give up, hah, baby, when it gets too rough
You ain't got what it takes, no, you ain't tough enough
You give up, you're lazy, when it starts to rock
And when you see a way out, you go, ooh, yeah

Well, it's another cold and lonely day
You got another tall tale to tell
How you nearly made it, oh, so far
Yeah, you nearly did really well, but I know

You give up, hah, baby, when it gets too rough
You ain't got what it takes, no, you ain't tough enough
You give up, you're lazy, when it starts to rock
And when you see a way out, you go, ooh, yeah

Ohh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You give up, ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah
You give up, you always give up
Well, I know you give up
You will always give up, you give up


6.I Will Be With You

Lyricist:Carol Ann Decker, Ronald Rogers

I have this fantasy
You come back and you forgive me
Oh, I'm so sorry now
I hear this melody, our tryst in rhapsody
And I am listening

And I never thought I'd see the day
When you and me, we'd be so far apart
And I miss you so much now
But I know there's no way back to yesterday

I will be with you
You're here in my heart
But if you never come back again
We'll never be far apart

I miss you so much
Wherever you are
But if you never come back again
We'll never be far apart

Here in my deepest dream
Running through another scene
I win your love again

And no, it doesn't bother me
The time I spend in imagery
Well, it's how I live

You see, I don't believe that we tried
Everything before our love died
And I just can't forget
Oh, is the one chance all we get

I will be with you
You're here in my heart
But if you never come back again
We'll never be far apart

I miss you so much
Wherever you are
But if you never come back again
We'll never be far apart

Now I have such memories
But I don't like to resurrect them
Oh, you know they hurt me so much now
And I know there's no way you'll be coming home

I will be with you
You're here in my heart
But if you never come back again
We'll never be far apart

I miss you so much
Wherever you are
But if you never come back again
We'll never be far apart

I will be with you
You're here in my heart
But if you never come back again
We'll never be far apart

I miss you so much
Wherever you are
But if you never come back again
We'll never be far apart


7.Make Love To Me

My mama said never talk to strangers
And in my head I knew all the dangers
Just a girl, but something inside
Told me don't be afraid the time's right

And when you left I had to run for cover
So I took myself to many other lovers
It doesn't matter what I let them do
From everyone I learned a thing or two

And I want you to make love to me
Like you did before
We could do everything
I learned a whole lot more
Oh baby, I'm a woman now
I'm not the girl that you left behind
But we can work on it honey
'til it feels like the very first time
You lay your hands on me
I had to beg for more
Together we turn the key
Now I'm sure
You're making love to me like the very first time

Come on over here
Lose your inhibitions
I'm gonna make it clear
It's not an imposition
We'll take our time
Moving it slow
I just want you to know it's alright

Make love to me
Like you did before
We could do everything
I learned a whole lot more
Oh baby, I'm a woman now
I'm not the girl that was on your mind
But we can work on it honey
'til it feels like the very first time

Do you wanna hold me baby (first time)
Don't you wanna touch me (very first time)
Won't you make love to me

Make love to me
Like you did before
We could do everything
I learned a whole lot more
Come on baby, I'm a woman now
I'm not the girl that was on your mind
But we can work on it honey
'til it feels like the very first time
You lay your hands on me
I had to beg for more
Together we turn the key
Now I'm sure
You're making love to me like the very first time
Very first time


8.Friends Like These

Lyricist:Decker Carol Ann, Ronald Phillip Rogers

With friends, like these
There's no need to worry your head, it seems
They know everything
Hand on the heart they see how you should feel

But oh, how the mighty all fall down
Heavy in a sea of principles they drown

They have only one dream, only one way
With only one vision and thought for the day

With friends like these
Cautioning the way the world is turning
I want to know, will they ever, ever see or be sure?
There's another way your mind is working

Now right or wrong they never walk alone
How lucky are the few who know where they belong
For they have

Only one dream, only one way
With only one vision and thought for the day

There is only
(There is only one dream)
Yeah, there is only one way


With only one vision
Thought for the day
(Here's your thought for the day)

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Your thought for the day
(Here's your thought for the day)
Your thought for the day


9.Thank You For Goodbye

Lyricist:Decker Carol Ann, Ronald Phillip Rogers

Love turned my head today
I, I turned away
Your smile for all to see
It used to be for me

But you know
You made your bed now you lie in it
And don't come to me
No, don't come to me

Thank you for goodbye
The best thing you ever did for me
Thank you for goodbye
You set me free from my misery

Thank you for goodbye
And every step that I take away
Thank you for goodbye
Is easy today

You left me loving you
You did not seem to care
I'm here with someone new
Why do you stare

'Cos you know
Our love is dead you leave it be
Don't come to me
Don't come to me

Thank you for goodbye
The best thing you ever did for me
Thank you for goodbye
Set me free from my misery

Thank you for goodbye
And every step that I take away
Thank you for goodbye
Yeah

Thank you for goodbye
The best thing you ever did for me
Thank you for goodbye
Set me free from my misery

Thank you for goodbye
And every step that I take away
Thank you for goodbye


10.Secret Garden

Lyricist:Carol Ann Decker, Ronald Rogers

There's more than a feeling
Than a differing mind to anatomy

On my own who's going to hold me?
A burning heart lifts me up to my life
I can't run from the truth and I won't try

'Cause it wouldn't matter who you were in this world
There's nothing on earth that we can't change
But on the inside I could never be the same

Came into the garden, babe
Oh, you got to come on in
Come into the secret garden
We're changing the way we're made

And in our own eyes
We're going to move the mountain
So how do you see me now? Can you see me?
Don't butter me up and tell me lies

I've seen the black and white colored in your eyes
But trapped in a cage is not the place
You can leave me or cover it up to ease your mind
In this confusion I can always see the light into the garden

Come into the garden, babe
Oh, come on in
Come into the secret garden
We're changing the way we're made

You'll never know it feels not to be one thing or the other
If there was a world without hypocrisy
You never know I might just be something you need

It wouldn't matter who you were in this world
Knowing yourself is so much more
Take one step forward and you open up the door

Come into the garden, babe
Oh, come on in
Come into the secret garden
We're changing the way we're made

Come into the garden, babe
Oh, come on in
Come into the secret garden
We're changing the way we're made

Come into the garden, babe
Oh, come on in


11.Valentine

Lyricist:Decker Carol Ann, Ronald Phillip Rogers

Songs for my valentine
Give the game away
In rhyme I make you mine
Sing all that I cannot say

I know mine are the tears I never cry
I know mine is a love I must deny

We go our separate ways
With nothing but a smile

I know mine is a love remains untold

Hey, hey, hey
