1.Persona Grata
Lyricist：Joan Armatrading
Writer(s)：Joan Armatrading
Can you feel how close we are？
Can you tell that this is real？
Make up your mind
'Cos any way you want it, baby
Hey, you got it
Power over me
I'm your whipping, boy
I can positively say
I am in love with you
I am in love with you
I am in love with you
I am in love with you
Here you are
All I've waited for
Bap, par, dap, ah
Now, I give my heart to you
Take it all now
Make me feel good
It can make you feel good too
Hey, you got it
Don't waste precious time
Said anyway you want it, baby
Hey, you got it
2.Temptation
Lyricist：Joan Armatrading
Writer(s)：Joan Armatrading
Temptation drags you down
Takes you where you wanna be
But deep inside you know
The reason for the fear
Fear of letting go, fear of being so
Possessed all the time
Being hypnotized
By those evil, evil eyes
Lead me not into temptation
Temptation, temptation
Temptation, temptation
Temptation
Paralyze the thought
Beat them to the ground
Offer up a sacrifice
Don't feed the fear
Fear of letting go, the fear of being so
Possessed all the time
Being hypnotized
By those evil, evil eyes
Lead me not into temptation
Temptation, temptation
Temptation, temptation
Temptation
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
It offers everything
That you could possibly need
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
It all looks so inviting
Till it drags you to your knees
Temptation, temptation
Temptation, temptation
Temptation, temptation
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Temptation
3.Moves
Lyricist：Joan Armatrading
Writer(s)：Joan Armatrading
Here comes the glare
Here comes the glare
I cannot see, I cannot see
When you appear, you dazzle
Poor me, pity on me
Why don't I know
How to make those moves？
I picked your face
From a thousand smiles
And now the knees
They start to shake
And all the people
Take a look
And once again
I'm thinking
Poor me, pitiful me
Why don't I know
How to make those moves？
I picked your face
From a thousand smiles
And stand there vacant
Rooted to the stupid floor
And too scared to think
Get out the door
Water, running down my back
Is this what it's like
Before the soldiers attach？
I'm gonna sharpen up my act
I'm gonna get ya
Poor me, pity for me
Why don't I know
How to make those moves？
I picked your face
From a thousand smiles
Trying to be the invisible man
And so scared, in case you don't see who I am
I don't want the label of an also ran
I wanna be the guy
With the flowers
And the champagne
Other guys run around
They pick and choose
I choose you
And I don't want to lose
I want you
To alleviate my blues
Just as long as you talk to me
Just as long as you talk to me
Poor me, pity on me
Why don't I know
How to make those moves？
I picked your face
From a thousand smiles
Why don't I know how to make you mine？
4.Talking To The Wall
Lyricist：Joan Armatrading
Writer(s)：Joan Armatrading
There's a very old expression
Called, talking to the wall
And it means you get no answers
Just stone silence
But walls have ears
And you can hear me
When I call
I can feel it
Feel it in my bones
You really mean it
It is not a hoax
Sham bam
Thank you ma'am
Not for you
You're bona fide, ah
You don't come on
In a Trojan horse
No hidden wires
To make me fall
What I see
Is what I get
Straight and true
My solid wall
You keep my chin up
Stabilize my highs and lows
You're extra special
Nothing superficial
You see right through me
Rust cracks, warts and all
Nothing changes
I'm the last word in what you want
You're as solid
As a wall
And I can
Lean against you
I can tell you
All my troubles
And I know
You'll hear me
Walls have ears
You can hear me
When I call
Talking to the wall
5.Love By You
Lyricist：Joan Armatrading
Writer(s)：Joan Armatrading
Anybody looking on
They can see, I'm not so good
People in the know
They can see that I miss you, in the night
With no one to hear me
I'm afraid and I cry
Seasons change but there's
Nothing changes my mind
I've been loving you too long
And I can't seem to stop
You are my life line
You make me happy
I said that, I had to say it, baby
Who on earth ever held me like you
I'd like to see someone try
Love by you and no other loving will do
In your time, baby, come back to me
Don't leave this girl, lost in space
You're the one who could
Guide me out of this maze
6.Thinking Man
Lyricist：Joan Armatrading
Writer(s)：Joan Armatrading
In the new edition
I'm gonna rule out friction
I'm gonna get someone
Who understands
I want a heart less demanding
Speak your mind but standing
Cuddling close
Cuddling close
A thinking man's what I want
In action and in words
A thinking man's what I need
And if you can't give respect
It's better we don't start
I've had enough indifference
I, I, I
That's all I heard
That's all I heard
I want someone who listens
No fighting for position
No other self
To have to satisfy
Oh, I wanna be with you
I know that you want me too
Say it's not just for my body
Give me piece of mind
Give me piece of mind
In the new edition
I'm gonna rule out friction
Cuddling close
Cuddling close
7.Friends Not Lovers
Lyricist：Joan Armatrading
Writer(s)：Joan Armatrading
I see your body when I look at you
It's breaking me up
'Cause you say we're through
It's such a shame
If we just had to remain
Friends not lovers
Two people
One state of mind
We can't be friends
Not lovers
No way
Baby, I'm not lying
I want you back
I want you back
Maybe baby
You're not aware
Broken hearts
Can get repaired
It's a losing game
If we should have to part as
Friends not lovers
Two people
One state of mind
We can't be friends
Not lovers
No way
Baby, I'm not lying
I want you back
I want you back
I see your reasons
I know your fears
People change
I stand here
To be what you want
To be where you are
I just wanna say
We can't be friends
Not lovers
Two people
One state of mind
And lovers
No way baby
I'm not lying
8.One Night
Lyricist：Joan Armatrading
Writer(s)：Joan Armatrading
I only see the side of you, you want to show
How do I know, how much to let my feelings go？
'Cos every night, I have the same good dream
You making love, and the face I see looks like me
When you hold me tight, it seems so real
Oh babe, I know, I could make you stay
If I could have one night
And I know, I could make you stay
Ready for love, don't you think of safety first
Be a hero, you could take a chance on me
'Cos every night, here comes my favorite dream
You making eyes and that courting stance is right at me
When you hold me tight, it's all so real
Oh babe, I know, I could make you stay
If I could have one night
And I know, I could make you stay
9.Secret Secrets
Lyricist：Joan Armatrading
Writer(s)：Joan Armatrading
I write it down in invisible ink
I write it down, everything I want
I keep it in private
Don't let nobody know
It's my secret, and I won't let go
It's my secret, and I won't let go
Do you want to join my society？
Well, you'll be governed
By intelligence
You've got to swear, be reticent
And answer questions
With a number
And when you talk
No facial expressions, don't emphasis
You've got to hold things back
And when your friends say
Give me names and dates
Don't give the answer, it's a secret
Keep it safe
Under lock and key
Keep it hid and it's a mystery
So tighten up on security
Don't run the risk
We won't tell nobody
Though they'll want to know
It's a secret secret
And we won't let go, it's a secret secret
Let's keep this exclusive
A sect for two
It's a secret secret for me and you
It's a secret secret
10.Strange
Lyricist：Joan Armatrading
Writer(s)：Joan Armatrading
Strange
How everything feels so strange
Since you walked out on me
I should be feeling blue
I should be feeling sad
But strange, so strange
I'm not crying over you
Strange, how this space
Once too small
No room to breathe
Now overpowers me
Now I'm free to choose
I only see the walls closing in on me
So strange, so strange
I'm not missing you
When I was a girl
I dreamed about you
And for a while you made my life a dream
But now it's all over and it all seems so
Strange
How the real stories end
No happy ever after
No beginning again
Strange
So strange
So strange
I am not missing you
