Amy Winehouse Lioness: Hidden Treasures Lyrics
1.Our Day Will Come

Lyricist:Mort GarsonBob Hilliard
Writer(s):Mort GarsonBob Hilliard

Our day will come (Our day will come)
And we'll have everything
We'll share the joy
Falling in love can bring

No one can tell me
That I'm too young to know
I love you so
And you love me

Our day will come (Our day will come)
If we just wait a while
No tears for us
Think love and wear a smile

Our dreams are meant to be
Because we'll always stay

In love this way
Our day will come


Our dreams are meant to be
Because we'll always stay
In love this way

Our day will come

Our day will come

Our day will come

Our day....will come

Our day will come


2.Between The Cheats

Lyricist:Amy WinehouseSalaam Remi
Writer(s):Amy WinehouseSalaam Remi

I would die before I divorce you
I'd take a thousand thumps for my love
Cause you kiss a lucky horseshoe
Stuck it in my boxing glove
Cause anyone who will see us
Through our victory and done defeat
Knows that I'll take you to the cleaners
If you come between the cheats

Between the cheats, ooh oh oh ooh oh oh
Between the cheats, ooh oh oh ooh oh oh

My husband is the finest handsome hustler
And he still make this housewife blush
So I'm holding my hand in his
I'm sitting on the royal flush
Women drink him in, swimming in his green eyes
Then go home and catch the chips you got
And take a bad beat to ooh to boat oh!
The jack of hearts is my jackpot

Between the cheats, ooh oh oh ooh oh oh
Between the cheats, ooh oh oh ooh oh oh

And I know as my heart beats
There's a winning secret to both
And it's sworn between the cheats

Between the cheats, ooh oh oh ooh oh oh
Between the cheats, ooh oh oh ooh oh oh
Between the cheats, ooh oh oh ooh oh oh


3.Tears Dry

Lyricist:Amy WinehouseNickolas AshfordValerie Simpson
Writer(s):Amy WinehouseNickolas AshfordValerie Simpson

All I can ever be to you is a darkness we once knew
And this deep regret I had to get accustomed to
Once it felt so right as if a place was not as high
Lived and waited in the hotel room late at night

I knew I hadn't met my match but every moment we could snatch
I don't know why I let myself get so attached
It's my responsibility and you don't owe nothing to me
But to let myself walk, I have no capacity

He walks away, the sun goes down
He takes the day but I'm gone
And in your way in this cool shade
My tears dry on their own

I don't understand, why do I stress the man
When there's so many better things than him at hand
We could have never had it all, we had to hit a wall
And this is inevitable withdrawal

Even if I stop wanting you, a perspective pushes through
I'll be some next man's other woman soon
I cannot play myself again, I shoulda be my own best friend
Not fuck myself in the head with stupid men

He walks away, the sun goes down
He takes the day but I'm gone
And in your way in this cool shade
My tears dry on their own

I wish I could sing no regrets and no emotional debts
And as we kiss goodbye the sun begins to set
So we are history, your shadow covers me
The sky above, a blaze that only lovers see

He walks away, the sun goes down
He takes the day but I'm gone
And in your way in this cool shade
My tears dry on their own

He walks away, the sun goes down
He takes the day but I am gone
Baby in your way in this cool shade
My tears dry on their own

In your way in this cool shade
My tears dry on their own


4.Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow ?( )

Lyricist:Gerry GoffinCarole King
Writer(s):Gerry GoffinCarole King

Tonight you're mine completely
You give your love so sweetly
Tonight the light of love is in your eyes
Will you love me tomorrow?

Is this a lasting treasure
Or just a moment's pleasure?
Can I believe the magic of your sighs?
Will you still love me tomorrow?

Tonight with words unspoken
And you say that I'm the only one, the only one, yeah
But will my heart be broken
When the night meets the morning star?

I'd like to know that your love
Is love I can be sure of
So tell me now, cause I won't ask again
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Yeah


5.Like Smoke

Lyricist:Amy WinehouseSalaam RemiNasir Jones
Writer(s):Amy WinehouseSalaam RemiNasir Jones

I never wanted you to be my man
I just needed company
Don't want to get dependent on
Your time or who you spend it on
But I lose it when you look at me
Like smoke, I hung around in the unbalance
Whoa, ohhhh!

It's not a movie, this is not a script or proofread
I'll spit some untruths to dumb fools and groupies
Fun to punctuate, pronunciate, the funds I make, the miles I
take, put in your face
Oh my mistake, you're not a floosy? Then excuse me
Before I talk, my style introduced me
Get your name and phone number like 1-2-3
Y'all know the story, y'all know the commentary
I kick the narrative, this is legendary
The good Samaritan, hood thespian
Like a polygamist, with a twist
Will I marry again? Maybe, I guess
I hold a lady's interest, I just met
The love scholar, she the teacher's pet
Every other eve we meet and make each other sweat
I feel triumphant, no strings
Just a fling to have fun with
I be out in London, Camden
Huntin' for the answers, why did God take away the homie?
I can't stand it
I'm a firm believer that we all meet up in eternity
Just hope the big man show me some courtesy
Why? 'Cause I'm deemed a heart breaker
Like smoke, girls lean 'round a player
Yeah-uh

I never wanted you to be my man
I just needed company
Don't want to get dependent on
Your time or who you spend it on
I lose it when you look at me
Like smoke, I hang around in the unbalance
Whoa, ohhhh!

Yo, this recession is a test
It's affecting my complexion
Misdirection my affection
My concerns are bill collections
The facts is the taxes, they after me
Chapter three, my property
My handlers, they dealt with me improperly
I say some things I should probably keep privately
Evaluate the world bank trusts like I'm IEG
Those fly suites and my bourgeois
Tall freak, she wouldn't protest with me at Wall Street
She says, no you're so deep
I said, no let's go through it
Historically so ruthless feds came for Joe Louis
She said, my man you need to laugh sometimes
Classifies me as a whore, I tell her have some wine
You colder than penguin poo, get hurt, dismay
She's thinkin' that's just so silly to say
But if you really think about it hussy
See a penguin, he drags his shit on the ground all day
I'm through with you after I crush, so is that humorous enough?
The smoke I puff
Tell the car to go to Aura, Funky Buddha, Whisky Mist on Mayfair
I hope I meet Simonie Love so she can show me love
NYC to UK I might stay there
Everybody in the club tonight say, Yeah
You know how me and Amy are, straight players

I never wanted you to be my man
I just needed company
Don't want to get dependent on
Your time or who you spend it on
I lose it when you look at me
Like smoke, I hang around in the unbalance
Whoa, ohhhh!

Ohh, ohh, ooooohh, ohh


6.Valerie

Writer(s):Sean PayneDave MccabeAbi HardingBoyan ChowdhuryRussell
Pritchard

Well, sometimes I go out by myself
And I look across the water
And I think of all the things, what you're doing
And in my head I paint a picture

'Cause since I've come on home
Well, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair
And the way you like to dress

Won't you come on over
Stop makin' a fool out of me
Why don't you come on over Valerie?
Valerie, Valerie, Valerie

Did you have to go to jail
Put your house on up for sale
Did you get a good lawyer?

Hope you didn't catch a tan
Hope you found the right man
Who'll fix it for you

Are you shopping anywhere
Changed the color of your hair
Are you busy?

And did you have to pay that fine
You was dodging all the time
Are you still busy?

Since I've come on home
Well, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair
And the way you like to dress

Won't you come on over
Stop makin' a fool out of me
Why don't you come on over Valerie?
Valerie, Valerie, Valerie

Well, sometimes I go out by myself
And I look across the water
And I think of all the things, what you're doing
And in my head I paint a picture

'Cause since I've come on home
Well, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair
And the way you like to dress

Won't you come on over
Stop makin' a fool out of me
Why don't you come on over Valerie?
Valerie, Valerie, Valerie

Valerie, Valerie, Valerie, Valerie
Why don't you come on over Valerie?


7.The Girl From Ipanema( )

Lyricist:Norman GimbelVinicius De Moraes
Writer(s):Antonio Carlos Jobim

Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking now
When she passes each one she passes
Goes daboo-du-daa
When she walks she's just like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when she passes, each one she passes
Goes daboo-du-daa

Oh, but I watch her so sadly
How can I tell her I love her
Yes, I would give my heart gladly
But each day as she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at me

Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking now
When she passes
I go di-di-do-di... from Ipanema...

Yea I want her so badly
How, how can I tell her I love her
Yes, I would give my heart gladly
But each day when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at me

Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, I smile,
But she doesn't see.
She ain't looking at me.


8.Half Time

Lyricist:Amy WinehouseFin Greenall
Writer(s):Amy WinehouseFin Greenall

Simple, sweet guitar
Humbled by the bass
When the beat kicks in
Everything falls into place
And it overpowers me
I can't help but dance
You can try to stop me now
Boy, you won't get the chance

Halftime, time to think it through
Consider the change
Seek it from a different view
Halftime, time to think it through
Consider the change

Rhythm floods my heart
The melody it feeds my soul
The tune tears me apart
And it swallowed me whole
You should thank your lucky star
Cause the music is a gift
And it's stronger than all else
Provides me with a bliss

Halftime, time to think it through
Consider the change
Seek it from a different view
Halftime, time to think it through
Consider the change

My lyrics reveling
Some natural vibe
To find the laid-back feeling
Oh just let it ride
Every phrase that I'm to sing
It's too much to take, yeah
So I sing this endlessly
It pacifies my ache

Halftime, time to think it through
Consider the change
Seek it from a different view
Halftime, time to think it through
Consider the change


9.Wake Up Alone

Lyricist:Amy WinehousePaul O'duffy
Writer(s):Amy WinehousePaul O'duffy

It's okay in the day, I'm staying busy
Tied up enough so I don't have to wonder where is he
Got so sick of crying, so just lately
When I catch myself I do a 180

I stay up, clean the house, at least I'm not drinking
Run around just so I don't have to think about thinking
That silent sense of content that everyone gets
Just disappears soon as the sun sets

This face in my dreams seizes my guts
He floods me with dread
Soaked in soul, he swims in my eyes by the bed
Pour myself over him, moon spilling in
And I wake up alone

If I was my heart I'd rather be restless
Second I stop the sleep catches up but I'm breathless
As this ache in my chest, as my day is done now
The dark covers me and I cannot run now

My blood running cold, I stand before him
It's all I can do to assure him
When he comes to me, I drip for him tonight
Drowned in me, we bathe under blue light

His face in my dreams seizes my guts
He floods me with dread
Soaked in soul, he swims in my eyes by the bed
Pour myself over him, moon spilling in
And I wake up alone

And I wake up alone
And I wake up alone
And I wake up alone


10.Best Friends, Right ?( ?)

Lyricist:Amy Winehouse
Writer(s):Amy Winehouse

I can't wait to get away from you
And surprisingly you hate me too
We only communicate when we need to fight
But we are best friends...right?

You're too good at pretending you don't care
There's enough resentment in the air
Now you don't want me in the flat
When you're home at night
But we're best friends right?

You're Stephanie and I'm Paulette
You know what all my faces mean
And it's easy to smoke it up, forget
Everything that happened in between

Nicky's right when he says I can't win
So I don't wanna tell you anything
I can't even think about
How you feel inside
But we are best friends, right?

I don't like the way you say my name
You're always looking for someone to blame
Now you want me to suffer just cause
You was born wide
But we are best friends right?

You're Stephanie and I'm Paulette
You know what all my faces mean
And its easy to smoke it up, forget
Everything that happened in between

So I had love for you when I was 4
And there's no one I wanna smoke with more
Someday I'll buy the Rizla, so you get the dro
Cause we are best friends right, right, right, right?
Because we are best friends right?
Because we are best friends right?


11.Body And Soul

Lyricist:Edward HeymanRobert SourFrank EytonJohn Green
Writer(s):Edward HeymanRobert SourFrank EytonJohn Green

For you, I sigh, for you, dear only
Why haven't you seen it, I'm all for you

Body and soul

I spend my days in longing
Wondering why it's me that you're wronging
I tell, you I mean it, I'm all for you

Body and soul
I can't believe it, it's hard to conceive it
That you'd turn away, romance
Are you pretending, it looks like the ending
Unless, I could have one more chance to prove, dear
My life a wreck, you're making
You know, I'm yours for just the taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you

Body and soul

My life a wreck, you're making
You know I'm yours for just the very taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you

Body and soul


12.A Song For You( )

Lyricist:Leon Russell
Writer(s):Leon Russell

I've been so many places
In my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs
I've made some bad rhyme
I've acted all my life in stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now and
I'm singing this song for you

I know your image of me
Is what I hope to be
I've treated you unkindly
Can't you see
There's no one more important to me
So darlin' won't you please see through me
Cause we're alone now and
I'm singing this song for you

You taught me precious secrets
Of the truth withholding nothing
You came out in front, well baby I was hiding
But now I'm so much better
And if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody
Cause my love is in there hiding

I love you in a place
Where there's no space or time
I love you for my life
Cause you were the boy next door and a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember remember remember...
When we were together
And I was singing this song for you

We were alone and
I was singing this song for you
