Donna Summer The Journey - The Very Best Of Donna Lyrics
1.Love To Love You Baby

I love to love you baby...

When you're laying so close to me
there's no place I'd rather you be
than with me here

I love to love you baby...

Do it to me again and again
you put me in such an awful spin
in a spin

I love to love you baby...

Lay your head down real close to me
soothe my mind and set me free
set me free

I love to love you baby...

When you're laying so close to me
there's no place I'd rather you be
than with me here

I love to love you baby...

Do it to me again and again
you put me in such an awful spin
in a spin

I love to love you baby...

I love to love you baby...

I love to love you baby...

Love to love you baby baby...

I love to love you baby...

When you're laying so close to me
there's no place I'd rather you be
than with me here

I love to love you baby...

Do it to me again and again
you put me in such an awful spin
in a spin

I love to love you baby

Lay your head down so close to
soothe my mind and set me free
set me free

I love to love you baby

When you're laying so close to me
there's no place I'd rather you be
than with me here

I love to love you baby


2.Could It Be Magic

Oh baby it's been so long
I've waited so long
and now that I have you
I want you to come
come come come into my arms
oh baby I need you I need you
come come come into my arms again

Spirits move me
every time I'm near you
whirling like a cyclone in my mind
oh sweet Peter, angel of my lifetime
answer to all answers I can find

Baby, I love you, come, come,
come into my arms
let me know the wonder of all of you
baby, I want you now, now,
now, and hold on fast
could this be the magic at last?

Spoken:
Oh hold on to me
don't let go
come into my life
don't let go
oh...

Baby, take me high upon a hillside
high up where the stallion meets the sun
I could love you, build my world around you
never leave you till my life is done

Baby, I love you, come, come,
come into my arms
let me know the wonder of all of you
and baby, I want you now, now,
oh now, oh now, and hold on fast
could this be the magic at last?
baby, I want you, come, come
could this be the magic at last?

Could it be magic?
come, c'mon, c'mon
come oh oh come into my arms
oh, let me know the wonder
of all of you, all of you
baby, I want you now, now,
oh now, oh now and hold on fast
oh could this be the magic at last?

Come, c'mon, c'mon,

oh, let me know the wonder of all of you
baby, I want you now, now, oh now,
oh now and hold on fast
oh, could this be the magic at last?
could it be the magic?

4.Theme From The Deep(Down Deep Inside)

Down deep inside
There's a place in me I'm yearning to explore
Look in my eyes
And remember wine the music and amour

The days grow stronger and longer
With every glance
It's what a stare and the dance were
To find romance

While dancers dance so close
Deep inside to our dream of dreams
Our theme of themes
Romance

Yes I'm falling
Watch me falling
Something warm is turning inside of me
Something warm is burning inside of me

Down deep inside
There's a place in me I'm yearning to explore
Look in my eyes
And remember wine the music and amour

The days grow stronger and longer
With every glance
It's what a stare and the dance were
To find romance

While dancers dance so close
Deep inside to our dream of dreams
Our theme of themes
Romance

Something warm is turning inside of me
Something warm is burning inside of me

Down deep inside
There's a place in me I'm yearning to explore
Look in my eyes
And remember wine the music and amour

The days grow stronger and longer
With every glance
It's what a stare and the dance were
To find romance

While dancers dance so close
Deep inside to our dream of dreams
Our theme of themes
Romance

Something warm
Something warm
Something warm


5.Love's Unkind

Well I see him every morning in the schoolyard
when the schoolbell rings
and when he passes in the hallway
well he doesn't seem to notice me
he's got a crush on my best friend
but she don't care, 'cause she loves someone else
I'm standing on the outside, not the inside where I wanna be

Love's unkind, love's unkind
love's unkind, love's unkind
'cause he's not mine

Just the other day I was praying that he'd give me a chance
hoping he would choose me for his partner
for the high school dance
I was standing outside the class
but it wasn't me, but my best friend, he asked
I went running back inside teary-eyed
and left the two of them behind

Love's unkind, love's unkind
love's unkind, love's unkind
'cause he's not mine

Spoken:
Oh, how I love him, but I can't even let him know
'cause he loves my best friend
but she don't care, she loves someone else
and I asked my mama, and she said: love's unkind
love's so unkind
She said: just keep it alive
'cause you may find love's unkind

Love's unkind, love's unkind
love's unkind, love's unkind

Spoken:
Oh, Why did I have to love him so
why did I have to love him so


6.I Love You

Well he searched and searched for nights and days
till he found the one he loved
and he wrapped her in his arms again
and then he thanked the stars above
that he found what he'd been looking for
and he stared her in the eyes

He said 'I love you'
he said 'I love you'
love you, love you

She stared him right back in the eyes
with a look of disbelief
then she gazed off into somewhere else
was it real or just a dream?
and she pulled him, oh so close to her
and she whispered in his ear

She said 'I love you'
she said 'I love you too'
love you, love you, love you

So together they will always be
until the stars fall from the sky

They said 'I love you'
yes, I really do
they said 'I love you'
yes, I do
I do, I do, I do, I do

So together they will always be
until the stars fall from the sky
so if you find someone you love a lot
you must never let them go
you just hold them tight with all your might
and you say three little words

You say 'I love you'
you say 'I love you'
you say 'I love you'
you say 'I love you'


7.Last Dance

Last chance, for love
Yes, it's my last chance, for romance, tonight

I need you, by me,
Beside me, to guide me,
To hold me, to scold me,
'Cause when I'm bad
I'm so' so bad

So let's dance, the last dance
Let's dance, the last dance
Let's dance, this last dance tonight

Last dance, last chance for love
Yes it's my last chance
For romance tonight

Oh, I need you, by me,
Beside me, to guide,
To hold me, to scold me,
'Cause when I'm bad
I'm so, so bad

So let's dance, the last dance
Let's dance, the last dance
Let's dance, this last dance tonight

Yeah, will you be my Mr. Right?
Can you fill my appetite
I can't be sure that you're the one for me
But all that I ask is that you dance with me
Dance with me, Dance with me, yeah

Oh I need you, by me,
Beside me, to guide me,
to hold me, to scold me,
'Cause when I'm bad
I'm so, so bad

So let's dance, this last dance
Let's dance, this last dance
Let's dance' this last dance tonight

Oh I need you, by me,
Beside me, to guide me,
To hold me, to scold me,
'Cause when I'm bad
I'm so, so --ho-- bad.

So, come on baby, dance that dance
Come on baby, dance that dance
Come on baby, let's dance tonight


8.MacArthur Park

Spring was never waiting for us, girl
it ran one step ahead
as we followed in the dance.

Between the parted pages
we were pressed,
in love's hot, fevered iron
like a striped pair of pants.

Mac Arthur's Park is melting in the dark
all the sweet green icing flowing down
someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'cause it took so long to bake it
and I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, nooo!

I recall the yellow cotton dress
foaming like a wave
on the ground beneath your knees
birds like tender babies in your hands
and the old men playing
Chinese checkers
by the trees

Mac Arthur's Park is melting in the dark
all the sweet green icing flowing down
someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'cause it took so long to bake it
and I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, nooo!

There'll be another song for me
and I will sing it
there'll be another dream for me
someone will bring it
I will drink the wine while it is warm
and never let you catch me
looking at the sun, oh yeah
and after all the loves of my life
after all loves in my life
you'll be the one

I will take my life into my hands
and I will use it
I will win the worship in their eyes
and I will lose it
I will have the things that I desire
and my passion flow
like rivers through the sky
oh and after all the loves in my life
after all the loves in my life
you'll still be the one
and I'll ask myself why.

Mac Arthur's Park is melting in the dark
all the sweet green icing flowing down
someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'cause it took so long to bake it
and I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, nooo!


9.Heaven Knows

Baby please,
please don't take your love from me
I am yours forever more,'till eternity
Silently, listen to the words I say
They're not talking just for play, listen to me please

Heaven knows it's not the way it should be
and heaven knows it's not the way it could be
Don't you know there's no need to leave
Heaven knows I never wanna leave you
Heaven knows I only wanna please you
Don't you know love is what I need

Down inside,
don't get caught with foolish pride
Put all the other things aside, there's only you and me
Believe in us, we were always meant to be
me for you and you for me 'till eternity

Heaven knows it's not the way it should be
and heaven knows it's not the way it could be
Don't you know there's no need to leave
Heaven knows I never wanna leave you
Heaven knows I only wannna please you
Don't you know love is what I need

Heaven knows it's not the way it should be
and heaven knows it's not the way it could be
Don't you know there's no need to leave
Heaven knows I only wanna love you
and heaven knows I never wanna lose you
don't you know love is meant to be

Heaven knows it's not the way it should be
and it's no use now so stop with the pretending
so come on child, and hear me when I cry...


10.Rumour Has It

There's a rumour, there's a rumour
Rumour has it

Rumour has it all around the town

it's got to be the man I love
no one else but him

Rumour has it

They say he's gonna make this girl his everything
he's gonna love her and surround her
with all those beautiful things
it was the most wonderful moment in my life I had
my life ended on that evening
I lost him, Lord it hurt so bad

Rumour has it

You never know just what you've wont until you've lost
and the object of the game is not to pay the cost

rumour has it
there's a rumour, there's a rumour
rumour has it, rumour has it

but not your destiny
and when you find the best thing in life has come to you
hold it in your hand real tight or it may slip through

There's a rumour, there's a rumour

You never know just what you've won until you've lost
and the object of the game is not to pay the cost
anyone can play the game, there are no rules
and you never know just what you've won until you lose
and you never know just what you've won until you lose

There's a rumour, there's a rumour

13.No More Tears(Enough Is Enough)

It's raining, it's pouring
my lovelife is boring me to tears,
after all these years

No sunshine, no moonlight,
no stardust, no sign of romance
we don't stand a chance

I've always dreamed I 'd find the perfect lover
but he turned out to be like every other man
our love, our love

Raining (raining)
pouring (pouring)
there's nothing left for us here
and we won't waste another tear

If you've had enough,
don't put up with his stuff,
don't you do it
If you've had your fill,
get the check pay the bill,
you can do it

Tell him to just get out
nothing left to talk about
pack his raincoat show him out
just look him in the eyes and simply shout

Enough is enough is enough
I can't go on, I can't go on, no more no
enough is enough is enough
I want him out, I want him out that door now

I've always dreamed to find the perfect lover,
but he turns out to be like every other man
our love (I had no choice from the start)
our love (I've gotta listen to my heart)
our love (tearing us apart)

Enough, is enough, is enough
I can't go on, I can't go on no more no
enough, is enough, is enough
I want him out, I want him out that door now

Goodbye mister, goodbye,
goodbye mister, goodbye sugar

No more tears
no more tears
no more tears
I've had it, you've had it, he's had it, we've had it
enough is enough is enough is enough

is enough is enough is enough is ENOUGH!!!


14.On The Radio

Someone found a letter you wrote me, on the radio
and they told the world just how you felt
it must have fallen out of a hole in your old brown overcoat
they never said your name
but I knew just who they meant.

Oh, I was so surprised and shocked, and I wondered too
if by chance you heard it for yourself
I never told a soul just how I've been feeling about you
but they said it really loud
they said it on the air
on the radio whoa oh oh
on the radio whoa oh oh
on the radio whoa oh oh
on the radio whoa oh oh now, now

Don't it kinda strike you sad when you hear our song
things are not the same since we broke up last June
the only thing that I wanna hear is that you love me still
and that you think you'll be comin' home real soon
whoa oh yeah yeah

(It made me feel proud when I heard him say)

you couldn't find the words to say it yourself
and now in my heart I know I can say what I really feel
'cause they said it really loud
they said it on the air
on the radio whoa oh oh
on the radio whoa oh oh
on the radio whoa oh oh
on the radio

Instrumental

Sending in a letter to tell, that I love you too
If you hear it, maybe you will know
when you hear them read the line about
love returns on the radio
You'll think about the two of us
and you'll come home
Whoa, oh oh oh
If you knew just how I felt
Why'd you make me wait
Life goes on and on
While you play with my heart
Don't hold out any longer
Caus' now I know how you really feel

Caus' I heard it really loud
they said it on the air
On the radio
Whoa, oh oh
On the radio
Whoa, oh oh
on the radio
Whoa, oh oh
On the radio
Whoa, oh oh now

If you think that love isn't found on the radio
well tune right in you may find the love you lost
'cause now I'm sitting here with the man I sent away long ago
it sounded really loud they said it really loud
on the radio whoa oh oh
on the radio whoa oh oh
on the radio whoa oh oh
on the radio whoa oh oh
on the radio whoa oh oh
on the radio, radio, radio (fade)


15.Love Is In Control(Finger On The Trigger)

(I've) hung around with big shots
never knew love was in the sights
I guess I missed the target
caught up in a different line of fire

But I know since I've been aiming

16.State Of Independence

State of life, may I live, may I love
coming out the sky, I name me a name
coming out silver word for what it is
it is very nature of the sound, the game

Siamese, Indonese, to Tibet treat the life
as a game, if you please (hey)

17.She Works Hard For The Money

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

Onetta there in the corner stand
and wonders where she is and
it's strange to her
some people seem to have everything

Nine a.m. on the hour hand
and she's waiting for the bell
and she's looking real pretty
just wait for her clientele

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

Twenty eight years have
come and gone
and she' seen a lot of tears
of the ones who come in
they really seem to need her there

It's a sacrifice working day to day
for little money just tips for pay
But it's worth it all
just to hear them say that they care

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

She already knows
she's seen her bad times
she already knows
these are the good times

She'll never sell out
she never will
not for a dollar bill
she works hard

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right


18.Dinner With Gershwin

I want to have dinner with Gershwin
I want to watch Rembrandt sketch
I want to talk theory with Curie
Impossible I guess

I want to talk moods with Picasso
On a rendezvous
I want to fly double with Earhart
I want to get next to you
Next to you

So close
Just as close as I can get
The rain of your worry
Can't effect
What I feel is what I feel
One touch
Of your greatness
Is what I need
My circle of fantasy
Would be complete

I want to sing hymns with Mahalia
When the day is through
I want to tell you about it
I want to get next to you
Next to you

So close
Just as close as I can get
The rain of your worry
Can't effect
What I feel is what I feel
One touch
Of your greatness
Is what I need
My circle of fantasy
Would be complete

So close
Just as close as I can get
The rain of your worries
Can't effect
What I feel is what I feel
One touch
Of your greatness
Is what I need
My circle of fantasy
Would be complete

I want to have dinner with Gershwin
I want to watch Rembrandt sketch
I want to talk theory with Curie
Impossible I guess..


19.This Time I Know It's For Real

What would I have to do
to get you to notice me too
do I
stand in line
one of a million
admiring eyes

Walk a tightrope way up high
write your name across the sky

I'm going crazy just to let you know
you'd be amazed how much I love you so baby
when I get my hands on you I won't let go
this time I know it's for real

Should I write or call your home
shout it out with a megaphone
radio, TV news
got to find a way
to get my message to you

To say I love you with a neon sign
anything to make you mine

I'm going crazy just to let you know
if I waited too long for you I might explode baby
I've been around the block enough to know
that this time I know it's for real

Oh baby
this time, this time, this time, this time
oh baby
this time, this time

Walk a tightrope way up high
write your name across the sky

I'm going crazy just to let you know
you'd be amazed how much I love you so baby
when I get my hands on you I won't let go
this time I know it's for real

I'm going crazy just to let you know
if I waited too long for you I might explode baby
I've been around the block enough to know
that this time I know it's for real

22.Hot Stuff(Original 12

Sittin' here eatin' my heart out waitin'
Waitin' for some lover to call
Dialed about a thousand numbers lately
Almost rang the phone off the wall

Lookin' for some hot stuff baby this evenin'
I need some hot stuff baby tonight
I want some hot stuff baby this evenin'
Gotta have some hot stuff
Gotta have some love tonight
I need hot stuff
I want some hot stuff
I need some hot stuff

Lookin' for a lover who needs another
Don't want another night on my own
Wanna share my love with a warm blooded lover
Wanna bring a wild man back home

Gotta have some hot love baby this evenin'
I need some hot stuff baby tonight
I want some hot stuff baby this evenin'
Gotta have some lovin'
Gotta have love tonight
I need hot stuff
Hot love
Lookin' for hot love


How's about some hot stuff baby this evenin'
I need some hot stuff baby tonight
Lookin' for my hot stuff baby this evenin'
I need some hot stuff baby tonight, yeah-yeah
I want some hot stuff this evenin'
I want some hot stuff baby tonight
