Kylie Minogue Hit Collection 2000 Lyrics
1.Confide In Me

Written:Paul Anderson/Dave Seaman

1:
I stand in the distance
I view from afar
Should I offer some assistance
Should it matter who you are

BRIDGE:
We all get hurt by love
And we all have our cross to bear
But in the name of understanding now
Our problems should be shared

CHORUS:
Confide in me, confide in me

2:
I can keep a secret
And throw away the key
But sometimes to release it
Is to set our children free

BRIDGE:

CHORUS:

CHORUS:

Stick or twist the choice is yours
Hit or miss what's mine is yours
Stick or twist the choice is yours
Hit or miss what's mine is yours

BRIDGE:

CHORUS:
(repeat 4 times)


2.Did it again

Written:Kylie Minogue/Steve Anderson/David Seaman

Clever girl
Think you are but you think too much
Shut down turn around
Don't look that way any more

Clever girl
Think you know but you don't know much
Try to make a move
Go to a different door

You know it's all in your head
You better put that business to bed
By your fair hands of design you met with
The monster in your mind

You did it again
You did it again
Won't you listen to me when I'm telling you it's no good for you

Clever girl
Think you're right
but what's right from wrong?
Little Miss Genius
You make it hard on yourself

Clever girl
You've got it all but you're all messed up
Time now turn around
Move onto something else

You know it's all in your head
You'd better put that business to bed
What you see nobody sees
It only brings you to your knees

Clever girl
Think you're right
but what's right from wrong?
Little Miss Genius
You make it hard on yourself


3.Breathe

Written:Kylie Minogue/Dave Ball/Ingo Vauk

Don't blame me just because I am bored
I'm needy, I need to taste it all
Don't doubt me just because I am quiet
I'm thinking, thinking about it all

I'm helpless about the way of me
I'm thinking, thinking about it all
I'm sorting everything inside

I'm looking in the space
This time, this void
I'm making my way through the muddy minutes
The pull is in my muscle
The ache is in my bones
It's hard to be alone
(Breathe, breathe)
It won't be long now
(breathe, breathe)

See through me when I put up a fight
Like you to see the things I hide
Go deeper than I won't let you know
I'm frightened but I won't let it show

I'm helpless about the way of me
I'm thinking, thinking about it all
I'm sorting everything inside

I'm looking in the space
This time, this void
I'm making my way through the muddy minutes
The pull is in my muscle
The ache is in my bones
It's hard to be alone
(Breathe, breathe)
It won't be long now
(breathe, breathe)


4.Some Kind Of Bliss

Written:James Dean/Bradfield/Kylie Minogue/Sean Moore

Shut my eyes
Feel the colour of you
So get to this elation
So high so fast

Shut my eyes
Feel the colour of you
Succumb to this illusion
So strong so deep

Cos everyday is all there is
In my some kind of bliss
Cos everyday is all there is
In my some kind of bliss

Study my reflection
and let the colours fall
Slip into stillness
And be above it all

Good to be here
Time to be alone
I've found a space where I belong
Not succumb to fear

Cos everyday is all there is
In my some kind of bliss
Cos everyday is all there is
In my some kind of bliss

Waiting for your love to show

In my imagination
There is no complication
I dream about you all the time
In my mind a celebration
The sweetest of sensation
Thinking you could be mine

You fell in love with me

If only they'd come true

I know you're gonna let me down

Your love's better late than never

Love's always been my excuse
Don't tell me it ain't right
My heart is my alibi

Like I do (do), do (do)
You say you can't believe it but it's true, ooh, ooh

There ain't a single night
When I haven't held you tight
But it's always inside my head
Never inside my bed

And I gotta have you

15.Shocked

Lyrics:Stock Aitken Waterman
Music:Stock Aitken Waterman

1a:
Tell me I'm only dreaming and I'll believe you
Can't see how this could be true
Surrounded by feelings I hardly recognise
I look for explanations I'm taken by surprise
If you told me yesterday that I could feel this way
I would sure enough call you a liar to your face

CHORUS:
Because I'm shocked by the power
(Shocked) ooh
Shocked by the power of love
I was rocked to my very foundations
Shocked by the power, shocked by the power

2:
Maybe this time tomorrow
I'll discover this ain't really real
'Cos it struck me like lightning
Like a bolt out of the blue
Emotions inside me, all over you
I'm high above the Universe, losing track of time
And falling free
I can't believe that you are really mine

CHORUS:

RAP:
Shocked, like the lightning from up above
Down from the heavens and it gave me love
From a man who respects me
Loves my mind as well as my body
No retreat and no surrender
Equal to you regardless of gender
Giving me love that is warm and tender
That's why I gotta tell ya

You and I are of the same mind
It seems to me that we're one of a kind
It's true to say that when love is blind
But then true love is so hard to find
You respect me and the things I do
It was meant to be
I was made for you
Open the door to my heart, it's stopped
And I'm shocked....

CHORUS:

3:
Surrounded by feelings I hardly recognise,
I look for explanations I'm taken by surprise.
'Cos it struck me like lightning,
Like a bolt out of the blue,
Emotions inside me, all over you.

CHORUS:
(repeat & fade)


16.If You Were With Me Now

Written:Stock Waterman/Kylie Minogue/Keith Washington
Vocal:Kylie Minogue/Keith Washington

(* Keith singing)
(+ both Kylie and Keith singing)

1:
*Without you standing by my side
*Love and good fortune passes me by
And you were my guiding light
It seemed so easy
+When we said goodbye

+How different would the world be now
If only we had worked it out somehow
+What kind of fools are you and I
+There would be stars up in the sky
+If you were with me now

2:
*And I know I may go astray
*But who's to say that we can't change our mind
My love burns stronger each day
If I'm sure of one thing

+One love at a time
+How could we throw our love away
*When we had so much more than words can say
+The darkest clouds would fade away
+To bring the light into my day
+If you were with me now

3:
If loving you is right
Then turn back the hands of time
*I'd do anything to make you mine
There'snothing that I wouldn't do
*I could make you feel my love for you
+If you were with me now
+If you were with me now
+If you were with me now


17.Give Me Just A Little More Time

Lyrics:Wayne/Dunbar
Music:Wayne/Dunbar

CHORUS:
Give me just a little more time
And our love will surely grow
Give me just a little more time
And our love will surely grow

1:
Life's too short to make a mistake
Let's think of each other and hesitate
Young and impatient we may be
There's no need to act foolishly
If we part our hearts won't forget it
Years from now we'll surely regret it

CHORUS:

2:
You're young and you're in a hurry
You're eager for love but don't you worry
We both want the sweetness in life
But these things don't come overnight
Don't give up cos love's been slow
Boy, we're gonna succeed with another blow

Give me just a little more time
And our love will surely grow
Baby please baby
Baby please baby

3:
Love is that mountain we must climb
Let's climb it together your hand in mine
We haven't known each other too long
But the feeling I have is oh so strong
I know we can make it there's no doubt
We owe it to ourselves to find it out

Just,

CHORUS:

Give me just a little more time
And our love will surely grow
Baby, please baby
Baby, please baby

CHORUS:
(repeat & fade)


18.Finer Feelings

Lyrics:Stock Waterman
Music:Stock Waterman

The finer feelings, the finer feelings

1a:
You can't give to me
Anything
I couldn't get for myself
I have needs as much as any man
And I understand the feelings well

1b:
I can still have a true heart
With a free mind
A good life
With a good time

CHORUS:
But what is love
Without the finer feelings
It's just sex
Without the sexual healing
Passion dies
Without some tender meanings
It ain't love
Without the finer feelings

2:
I get passionate
Just like you
But I have a little self-control
You just show your selfish attitude
Your emotion leaves me cold

1b:

CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
The finer, the finer
The finer feelings

3:
(I can still have a true heart) it ain't love
(With a free mind) it ain't love
(A good life)
(With a good time) feelings

CHORUS:
(repeat & fade)

Written:Stock Waterman/Kylie Minogue

INTRO:
What kind of fool do you take me for
(Do you take me for, do you take me for)
(But I heard all that before)

1a:
I don't wanna hear your reasons
I'm not giving you another chance
In my kindness you saw weakness
Time for me to make a stand

1b:
Whenever I hear your music
Singing the same old tune
You're so sure that I can't refuse it
But don't you speak too soon

CHORUS:
What kind of fool do you take me for
Don't wanna see your face no more
You can say you'll be true, I can trust in you
But I heard all that before

2:
Remember how I used to need you
But baby you were never there
There was a time when I believed you
But now I know you didn't care
Don't wanna hear your hard-luck story
It's the same time after time
It's too late to say you're sorry
You'll never change wrong to right

CHORUS:

CHORUS2:
What kind of fool do you take me for
No-one on earth could give you more
You would change white to black
If I took you back
But I heard all that before

What kind of fool, what kind of fool
(Believed you, believed you,
Believed you, believed you)

1b:

CHORUS:

CHORUS2:

CHORUS:

20.Where In The World?

Written:Stock Waterman/Kylie Minogue

1:
There'll never me
Another moment like this
The touch of your hand
May me this
Is our final kiss
And I don't know why
You're leaving tonight
It's so hard to believe am I dreaming
Or is this goodbye

CHORUS:
Where in the world will I be without you
If you are leaving
Where is the love that was meant to me true
And we believed in
Now you're saying that you're leaving me
Taking your heart setting me free
Don't know where in the world I will be
If you are leaving

2:
I'll never know
As long as I live
Feelings so deep in my heart
From a love such as this
So don't take away
The light from my day
The sun and the moon would be mine
If only you'd stay

CHORUS:
(repeat & fade)


21.Where The Wild Roses Grow

Lyrics:Nick Cave
Music:Nick Cave

They call me The Wild Rose
But my name is Elisa Day
Why they call me it I do not know
For my name is Elisa Day

From the first day I saw her I knew she was the one
As she stared in my eyes and smiled
For her lips were the colour of the roses
That grew down the river, all bloody and wild

When he knocked on my door and entered the room
My trembling subsided in his sure embrace
He would be my first man, and with a careful hand
He wiped at the tears that ran down my face

CHORUS

On the second day I brought her a flower
She was more beautiful than any woman I'd seen
I said, 'Do you know where the wild roses grow
So sweet and scarlet and free?'

On the second day he came with a single red rose
Said: 'Will you give me your loss and your sorrow?'
I nodded my head, as I lay on the bed
He said, 'if I show you the roses will you follow?'

CHORUS

On the third day he took me to the river
He showed me the roses and we kissed
And the last thing I heard was a muttered word
As he stood smiling above me with a rock in his fist

On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow
And she lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief
As I kissed her goodbye, I said, 'All beauty must die'
And lent down and planted a rose between her teeth

CHORUS
