1.The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face(Version 2)

The first time ever I saw your face
I saw the sun rise in your eyes
That the moon and stars were a gift you gave
To the dark and the empty skies, my love,
To the dark and the empty skies.

The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love,
That was there at my command.

The first time ever I lay with you
And felt your heart beat close to mine,
I thought our joy would never end
And would last till the end of time, my love,
And would last till the end of time.

7.INVISIBLE

You've got me so confused and there's word I could use
But I'm afraid to say them.
I feel I've been bad and I'm boilding mad

Still I can't live without you.
You don't have the time and you won't spend a dime
Not even to call me.
You don't know I exist and I wouldn't be missed
If I had the nerve to quit you.

Invisible - I feel like I'm invisible.
You treat me like I'm not really there
and you don't really care.
I know this romance
it ain't going nowhere.
Invisible just like my love. You treat me like I'm invisible.
When you get the need to flirt you do the work

You just don't care how much it hurts.

I can never reach you on the phone
it rings and rings
But I know you're home.
It may be naive but I just want to believe I'm the only one.
I tell myself lies and give you alibies

Knowing your promises you'll never keep
like the merry go round

I'm going up
I'm going down
I'm on a dead end street.

Invisible just like my love
I feel like I'm invisible.
You treat me like I'm not really there
and you don't really care.
I know this romance
it ain't going nowhere.
Although I know it's not a lot
don't want to lose whatever we got.
I keep hanging on knowing I can't win
'Cause it's too hard start over again.
Invisible - I feellike I'm invisible. . . .
Invisible just like my love.


8.THAT OLE DEVIL CALLED LOVE

It's that ole devil called love again

Gets behind me and keeps giving me that shove again

Putting rain in my eyes
tears in my dreams

and rocks in my heart.
It's that sly old sun of a gun again

He keeps telling me that I'm the lucky one again

But I still have that rain
still have those tears

And those rocks in my heart.
S'pose I didn't stay
ran away
wouldn't play

The devil
what a potion he would brew?

He'd follow me around
build me up
tear me down

Till I'd be so bewildered
I wouldn't know what to do.
Might as well give up that fight again

I know darn well he'll convince me that he's right again.
When he sings that sorry song I'm just gonna tag along
With that ole devil called love.

He'd follow me around
build me up
tear me down
. . .
With that ole devil called love.


9.IS THIS LOVE

In a fleeting moment of a restless day

driven to distraction
I was captured by the game.
I have often wondered why I ever wanted to
leave these scattered hours behind me and speed myself to you.

I choose never to forget

I want our lips to kiss and our limbs to entwine

let our bodies be twisted but never our minds.
Is this love ? Is this love ? Is this love ? Is this love ?
Set to work idle hands
shake these thoughts

had I planned them they never would be teasing me
as viciously as these.

I would not have believed you
had I never seen

now you and I are intimately pictured
in my dreams.
I could not forsake you or gall tumbling away

and if I live in wonderland
I'm better off this way.
I choose never to forget
...

Is this love ? Is this love ? Is this love ? Is this love ?
Is this love ? Is this love ? Is this love ? Is this love ?


10.WEAK IN THE PRESENCE OF BEAUTY

It's a long time since I saw you
well

you know how time can fly.
It seems like yesterday we were lovers

now we pass each other by.
But if we're left alone tonight
don't ask me to hold you tight.

I go weak
I go weak
I go weak

I go weak
weak in the presence of beauty.

All of my friends keep asking why
I'm quiet when you're around.
But they don't know I think
I'm so lucky to stop myself from falling down.

So later if you're on your own
Don't ask me to take you home.
I go weak
I go weak
I go weak
. . .

'Cause if we're left alone tonight
I have no choice but to hold you tight.
I go weak
I go weak
I go weak
. . .
I go weak
I go weak
I go weak
. . .
Igo weak
I go weak
I go weak


11.ORDINARY GIRL

She left on a Sunday afternoon.
It is the only way for everyone concerned
she said.
And I could only ask her why

But she just smiled and told me
one day I would learn.

Don't you worry
this will all make sense tomorrow.
Don't be sorry
that everything we shared will fade away.
There's so much more to see in each new day.
They'd never understand
I'm not an ordinary girl.

She took nothing but her clothes.
Taking more would just remind her of her past
she said.
I thought I'd never laugh again
On the day I said goodbye to my best friend.

Don't you worry
this will all make sense tomorrow. . . .

Don't you worry
this will all make sense tomorrow.
Don't be sorry
that everything we shared will fade away.
There's so much more to see in each new day.
And now I understand
she's just an ordinary girl.
she's just an ordinary girl.


12.LOVE LETTERS

Love letters straight from your heart
Keep us so near while apart.
I'm not alone in the night
When I can have all the love you write.

I memorize every line
And I kiss the name that you sign.
And
darling
then I read 'again
right from the start.

Love letters straight from your heart.
I memorize every line. . .
Love letters straight from your heart

Love letters straight from your heart.
