Dusty Springfield Best Of Dusty Lyrics
1.All Cried Out

(kaye / philinger)

I stayed up cryin' all night (all night)
I knew the end was in sight (in sight)
And now you're walkin' out on me (on me)
You're wonderin' where the little tears can be (can be)
Well, baby....

I'm all cried out, i'm all cried out
All my little tears are all dried out, oh yeah
Now, that you say we're through
I'm all cried out over you

Last night i knew we were through (we're through)
It hurt 'cause i still loved you (loved you)
Went home and couldn't fall asleep (asleep)
'cause sleep just won't come into eyes that weep (that weep)
And that's why....

I'm all cried out, i'm all cried out
All my little tears are all dried out, oh yeah
Now that you say we're through
I'm all cried out over you, oh yeah

I'm all cried out
I just cant cry no more, no, no
No, no, no, no, oh
All cried out
And that's why....

I'm all cried out, yes i'm all cried out
All my little tears are all dried out, oh yeah
Now that you say we're through
I'm all cried out over you

Listen to me when i'm a-gonna say
I'm all cried out, yeah, over you
Listen to me when i'm a-tellin' you
I'm all cried out, yeah, over you
Over you


2.All I See Is You

(clive westlake / ben wiesman)

I tried so hard
All summer through
Not to think too much of you
But the more i try
The more i find
I just can't leave the past behind

Times that are happy
Are times that are few
And once i was happy
When i had you

But days have come and gone
Since you were here
Nights are twice as long
Without you near
Pictures on my mind
Stand out so clear
No matter where i am
Or what i do
My darling
All i see is you

You're there in every dream
I ever dream
There at every place
I've ever been
Everyday i find
You're in my heart
And on my mind
I close my eyes
But i'm not blind
I see you still
And when i throw my arms out wide
I find that you're not by my side
But one thing is for sure
Until i do
All i see is you

Everyday i find
You're in my heart
And on my mind
I close my eyes
But i'm not blind
I see you still, oh

I won't live again
'til i'm with you
Oh, darling
I won't love again
Unless it's with you

So until the day
When you are back with me to stay
In every way
All i see is you


3.Give Me Time

(melfa / atmo / english lyrics by peter callendar)

If you'll only give me time
All the heartache that he left behind
Will fade from my mind
I'll be free to love again

If you'll only give me time
I'll forget i even knew his name
Forget that he came
I'll be no good till i can
Try to understand
But when i'm sure i need him no more
That's when i'll reach out for your hand

So darling give me time
And you will see that i'm
Ready to love you
Just as you love me
Wait awhile
'til i can find my smile
And i'll be yours for as long as i live
If you'll only give me time, yeah

So darling give me time
And you will see that i'm
Ready to love you
Just as you love me, oh
Wait awhile
'til i can find my smile
And i'll be yours for as long as i live
If you'll only give me time


4.I Only Want To Be With You

(ivor raymonde / mike hawker)

I don't know what it is that makes me love you so
I only know i never want to let you go
'cause you've started something
Oh, can't you see?
That ever since we met
You've had a hold on me
It happens to be true
I only want to be with you

It doesn't matter where you go or what you do
I want to spend each moment of the day with you
Oh, look what has happened with just one kiss
I never knew that i could be in love like this
It's crazy but it's true
I only want to be with you

You stopped and smiled at me
And asked if i'd care to dance
I fell into your open arms
And i didn't stand a chance
Now listen honey
I just want to be beside you everywhere
As long as we're together, honey, i don't care
'cause you've started something
Oh, can't you see?
That ever since we met
You've had a hold on me
No matter what you do
I only want to be with you

Oh, oh, you stopped and you smiled at me
And asked if i'd care to dance
I fell into your open arms
And i didn't stand a chance
Now hear me tell you
I just want to be beside you everywhere
As long as we're together, honey, i don't care
'cause you've started something
Oh, can't you see?
That ever since we met
You've had a hold on me
No matter what you do
I only want to be with you
I said no matter, no matter what you do
I only want to be with you


5.I'll Try Anything

(mark barkan / vic millrose)

You belong
To somebody else and not to me
Right or wrong
That's not the way that it's gonna be
I want you so much inside
I'm throwin' away all my conscience and pride, and

I'll try anything to get you
I'll do anything i can
I'll try anything to get you
I'll cheat and i'll lie
And i'll try 'til i die
'til i make you my man
Gonna make you my man

I've been burned
Whenever i've followed all the rules
So i've learned
That playing it fair is just for fools
I'm fighting and win or lose
I'm not minding my p's and q's, and

I'll try anything to get you
I'll do anything i can
I'll try anything to get you
I'll cheat and i'll lie
Try 'til i die
'til i make you my man
My man, hey, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

I want you so much inside
I'm throwin' away all my conscience and pride, and

I'll try anything to get you
I'll do anything i can
I'll try anything to get you
I'll cheat and i'll lie
Try 'til i die
'til i make you my man
Gonna make you my man
Gonna make you my man, yeah
Make you my man
Gonna fight 'til i die
Gonna cheat and lie


6.Little By Little

(buddy kaye / bea verdi)

Little by little by little by little by little
Little by little by little by little by little

You're messing up my life
Tearing me apart
Breaking up my world
And i'm giving up my heart
Little by little by little by little

I'm losing all my pride
It's really getting bad
Hurting deep inside
Is a-making me go mad, ooh
Little by little by little by little

Little by little
Bit by bit
I'm going crazy and you're causing it
Little by little
Bit by bit
I should stop caring
But my love won't quit

Little by little by little by little by little, yeah
Little by little by little by little by little, all right

I don't know where to turn
Don't know what to do
I'm walking on thin ice
And it seems i'm falling through, ooh
Little by little by little by little

Little by little
Bit by bit
I'm going crazy and you're causing it
Little by little
Bit by bit
I should stop caring
But my love won't quit

I'm the queen of fools
Know the deck is stacked
On a losing streak
But i'm a-gonna get you back

Little by little by little by little
(little by little by little by little by little)
Yeah, little by little
(little by little by little by little by little)
Ah, ah, ah, little by little
(little by little by little by little by little)
Little by little, mmm
(little by little by little by little by...)


7.Losing You

(tom springfield / clive westlake)

How many tears do you cry
If love should break your heart in two?
How many tears will i cry
Now that i know i'm losing you?

I can't stop wanting you
And no matter what you do
You're still a part of me
Even though i'm losing you, oh

How many years will go by
Before my heart begins to mend?
Waiting and wondering why
I never thought our love could end

I try forgetting you
But you're still here on my mind
It would take a miracle
But someday maybe i'll find

That i'm in the loving arms of someone
That i'll know, know he's the someone
Who'll kiss all the heartache away
And come that day
I won't mind losing you

Yes, i try forgettin' you
But you're still here on my mind
It would take, yeah, a miracle
But someday maybe i'll find

That i'm in the loving arms of someone
That i'll know, know he's the someone
Who'll kiss all the heartache away
And when he comes to me that day
I won't mind losing you, oh, oh
I won't mind losing you, yeah
I won't mind losing you


8.Stay Awhile

(ivor raymonde / mike hawker)

Stay awhile, let me hold you
Stay awhile, 'til i've told you, oh, oh
Of the love that i feel tonight, oh yeah

Stay awhile, what's your hurry?
Stay awhile, 'cause i worry, oh
Any time that you're out of sight

I hate to see you go
Tell you what i'll do
I'll be good to you
I'll make you glad that you are mine
So come on baby

Treat me right, must you run now?
For the night's just begun now, oh
Honey please, won't you stay awhile with me?, oh yeah, yeah

Oh, i hate to see you go
Tell you what i'll do
I'll be good to you
I'll make you glad that you are mine
So come on baby

Treat me right, must you run now?
For the night's just begun now, oh
Honey please, won't you stay awhile with me?, oh yeah, yeah
Stay awhile with me


9.The Look Of Love

the look of love
Is in your eyes
The look your smile can't disguise
The look of love
Is saying so much more
Than just words could ever say
And what my heart has heard
Well it takes my breath away

I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you
How long i have waited
Waited just to love you
Now that i have found you

You've got the look of love
It's on your face
A look that time can't erase
Be mine tonight
Let this be just the start
Of so many nights like this
Let's take a lover's vow
And then seal it with a kiss

I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you
How long i have waited
Waited just to love you
Now that i have found you
Don't ever go

I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you
How long i have waited
Waited just to love you
Now that i have found you
Don't ever go
Don't ever go
I love you so


10.What's It Gonna Be

(ragavoy / shuman)

What's it gonna be?
Please tell me
Is it really me?
Please tell me
Are you out for fun?
Only lovin' on the run
And leave me cryin', ahh, cryin'

What's it gonna be?
(tomorrow)
Will he set me free?
(tomorrow)
Gotta know for sure
A broken heart don't have a cure
It just keeps hurting, ahh, hurtin'
And when i'm hurtin'
I can't stop hurtin'

I want a love that's here to stay
Baby please
The kind of love that i can count on everyday

Ah, got a hold on me
You know it
What's it gonna be?
You know it

Want a love that's so
But i'll turn around and go
'cause i can't take it
I can't take it
I can't face it
My heart won't make it

I want a love that's here to stay
Baby, believe me
The kind of love that i can count on everyday, mmm

(what's it gonna be?)
Mmm, tell me
(what's it gonna be?)
Baby, tell me
(what's it gonna be?)
Come on, baby
(what's it gonna be?)
Hey, hey, you gotta tell me
What's it gonna be?


11.Wishin' And Hopin'

(burt bacharach / hal david)

Wishin' and hopin' and thinkin' and prayin'
Plannin' and dreamin' each night of his charms
That won't get you into his arms
So if you're lookin' to find love you can share
All you gotta do is hold him and kiss him and love him
And show him that you care

Show him that you care just for him
Do the things he likes to do
Wear your hair just for him, 'cause
You won't get him
Thinkin' and a-prayin', wishin' and a-hopin'

'cause wishin' and hopin' and thinkin' and prayin'
Plannin' and dreamin' his kisses will start
That won't get you into his heart
So if you're thinkin' of how great true love is

All you gotta do is hold him and kiss him and squeeze him and
love him
Yeah, just do it
And after you do, you will be his

You gotta show him that you care just for him
Do the things he likes to do
Wear your hair just for him, 'cause
You won't get him
Thinkin' and a-prayin', wishin' and a-hopin'

'cause wishin' and hopin' and thinkin' and prayin'
Plannin' and dreamin' his kisses will start
That won't get you into his heart
So if you're thinkin' of how great true love is

All you gotta do is hold him and kiss him and squeeze him and
love him
Yeah, just do it
And after you do, you will be his
You will be his
You will be his


12.You Don't Have To Say You Love Me

(pino donaggio / vito pallavicini / english lyrics by vicki
wickham / simon napier-bell)

When i said i needed you
You said you would always stay
It wasn't me who changed but you
And now you've gone away

Don't you see
That now you've gone
And i'm left here on my own
That i have to follow you
And beg you to come home?

You don't have to say you love me
Just be close at hand
You don't have to stay forever
I will understand
Believe me, believe me
I can't help but love you
But believe me
I'll never tie you down

Left alone with just a memory
Life seems dead and so unreal
All that's left is loneliness
There's nothing left to feel

You don't have to say you love me
Just be close at hand
You don't have to stay forever
I will understand
Believe me, believe me

You don't have to say you love me
Just be close at hand
You don't have to stay forever
I will understand
Believe me, believe me, believe me
