Lisa Stansfield Biography:The Greatest Lyrics
1.Change

Chorus:
If I could change the way I live my life today
I wouldn't change a single thing
'Cos if I changed my world into another place
I wouldn't see your smiling face

Honey don't you worry, there's nothin' to worry for
'Cos if I didn't love you I wouldn't be here now
And if I didn't want you I would have turned around by now

You've got to believe me babe, believe that I love you so
'Cos if I didn't love you I would have turned around
And if I didn't want you, then I would want you out

This love, this love has filled me up
Ooh my love I'll never give you up
'Cos I'll always want your love

(Chorus)

Believing is the answer, the answer to all your fears
When I first said I loved you, I went in for the kill
Now when I say I love you, I mean I always will

This love, this love has filled me up
Ooh my love I'll never give you up
'Cos I'll always want your love

(Chorus)

This love, this love has filled me up
Ooh my love I'll never give you up
'Cos I'll always want your love

(Chorus)


2.Someday(I'm Coming Back)

Chorus:
Someday I'm coming back, and it won't be long
Before you call me and tell me to come home
Someday I'm coming back, and it won't be long
Before I'm home, home and in your arms

What did I do my darling ? That made you send me running
Told you to cast me down and throw me out
What can I tell you honey, If I don't know what I've done
All I can hope is that you ask me to come back home

(Chorus)

Even in stormy weather, we always stick together
You always kept me near, we're so sincere
So why so sudden the change of heart
Why do I feel like I've done wrong ?
When all that I want is that you ask me to come back home

(Chorus)

Someday, someway (I never wanted anyone so much)
Someday, someway

What did I do my darling ? That made you send me running
Told you to cast me down and throw me out
What can I tell you honey, If I don't know what I've done
All I can hope is that you ask me to come back home

So why so sudden the change of heart
Why do I feel like I've done wrong ?
When all that I want is that you ask me to come back home

(Chorus to Fade)


3.This Is The Right Time

This is the right time to believe in love

Everyone knows if you don't demand, it shows
That you understand the light shining inside us
It's more than tonight, it's forever more, it's right
When there's someone there till the light, to hold you close
You know it's all you will ever need,
'Cause you're seein' love, and seein' it clearly
There's no doubt about it, you just have to shout out

Chorus:
This is the right time
This is the right time (I can see it in your eyes)
This is the right time to believe in love

Everyone knows it's a special thing, it's a love
that will never, ever be wrong, 'cause this love is strong
'Cause you're seein' love, and seein' it clearly
There's no doubt about it, you just have to shout out

(Chorus x 2)

So when you know that there's someone you want
And you want them so tonight, more than you've done anyone
'Cause you're seein' love, and seein' it clearly
There's no doubt about it, you just have to shout out

(Chorus x 2)

Well, do you believe, baby?
'Cause I believe, baby
Do you believe, baby?
Believe in love

(Chorus)


4.The Real Thing

Never mind the stars in the sky
Never mind the when and the why
Got a feeling higher than high
This is the real thing

No more living in shame
And I'm not gonna run or gonna hide away
No more telling all those lies
It's been too long

No more living in chains
No, I don't give a damn whet the people say
There's no use holding back desire
We've burnt our fingers now lets jump into the flames

Chorus:
Never mind the stars in the sky
Never mind the when and the why
Got a feeling higher than high
This is the real thing
Never mind the rain and the storm
We'll keep each other warm
We got something stronger than strong
This is the real thing

Gonna walk out hand in hand
So let them criticise 'cos they don't understand
We've got nothing to hide
It's just love

I've had enough of shy
So let's go out and show them what we have inside
There's no use holding back desire
We've burnt our fingers now let's jump into tho fire

(Chorus)

Never mind the stars in the sky baby
Never mind the when and the why baby
Never mind the stars in the sky baby
'Cos I've got a feeling that's higher than high

Oh, what you do to me, baby
Oh, what you do to me, baby

This is the real thing

(Chorus)

Never mind the stars in the sky baby
Never mind the when and the why baby
Never mind the stars in the sky baby
'Cos I've got a feeling that's higher than high

(Chorus)


5.People Hold On

Everybody's looking for a meaning
Everybody's doing their own thing
And nobody's solving the problem
Ain't nobody helping each other

Some people give into fear
Some people give into hunger
Some of us live for the future
And some of us wonder

Givin' into life, givin' into love
Maybe there's enough for everyone
Givin' into hope, and into trust
Maybe there's enough for everyone

Chorus:
People hold on
Don't do yourself wrong
People hold on
We've got to be strong
People hold on

Everybody's getting frustrated
Why should we live with this hatered
We've all dancin' on a thin line
They're makin' out we're having a good time
So who's gonna give us the answer
Sister and brother

Givin' into life, givin' into love
Maybe there's enough for everyone

(Chorus)

People hold on, people hold on to it
you know you gotta do it

Givin' into life, givin' into love
Maybe there's enough for everyone
Givin' into hope, and into trust
Maybe there's enough for everyone

(Chorus)


6.In All The Right Places

If you take me straight to heaven
I could never fall
'Cos loving you is what I'm made for
I'd gladly give my all and all
It doesn't matter where I am
As long as I'm with you
You can take me high above
Whatever I've been dreaming of

Chorus:
In all the right places, it's feeling so good
In all the right places. just like it should
And I swear, I love you
And I swear, I love you

If we're dancing all alone
Or in a crowded room
When you wrap your arms around me
You can always send me to the moon
When we kiss our sugar kisses
And the music starts to play
We've got love, we've got each other
And we're going all the way

(Chorus)

Find time's never wasted, when it's ours to kill
I know in all the right places, you're touching me still
And I swear, I love you
And I swear, I love you

And I swear, I love you
And I swear, I love you
I love you


7.So Natural

Chorus:
It's so natural the way you touch me
So natural the way you run your fingers through my hair
It's so natural the way you make me feel like I'm a lady
It's so natural the way you care
It's so natural

When I feel low. you pull me higher
You warm me up, set me on fire
Well there's no way in this world
I could ever be without you

You come home, and I am waiting for you
To come over and give me hungry kisses
of love, of love, so true
And there's no way in this world
I could ever be without you

(Chorus)

With hands so warm, you touch my very soul
You pull me closer, so I won't feel the cold
Just love, love, Your love, so true
And there's no way in this world
I could ever be without you

Swimming in the love you give me
It's so natural


8.Time To Make You Mine

Only in my dreams
I've seen the way it's gonna be

I've waited for this moment
The moment when we share ourselves
This moment can't be thought about
It has to be felt

We're closer to each other
Closer than we've ever been
Seeing things we've never seen before

Chorus:
I've dreamed your fingers touch me a thousand times
Dreamed the warm skin of your body burning next to mine
Kissed your sugar lips, caressed your hips
Now we're together baby now it's time
Time to make you mine
Time to make you mine

The sweet anticipation of hands I know will touch me soon
Two fascinating shadows move in time

(Chorus)

Spoken:
I know what it's gonna be
Me and you, you and me
I thought that it would never be
I only knew it in my dreams
Even though you're here with me
I never thought I'd feel such ecstasy

We're closer to each other
Closer than we've ever been
Seeing things we've never seen before

(Chorus x 2)

To understand, and find the answer
So let's do it now, let's do it right now...

We've got to live together if we're gonna be free

10.Little Bit Of Heaven

Every little thing I do,
Can it be I do it for you?
Every word I say is true,
Anything I do, I do for you.

'Cos when you hold me in your arms,
I feel so safe and warm,
I love you true...

Chorus:
Baby can't you see you will always be
My little bit of heaven
Baby can't you see you will always be
My life
Baby can't you see you were meant to be
My little bit of heaven
So it's you and me, & I can't believe my eyes

There's so little I can do,
When you put your kisses on me
I just melt into my shoes & everything I feel is due to you

'Cos when you hold me in your arms,
I feel so safe and warm,
I love you true...

(Chorus)

You take me to another place,
Out of myself & into your arms
And you make me feel no other way will do,
will do

(Chorus)


11.Set Your Loving Free

Baby don't go
You've nearly shown everything you are to me
Darling don't stray stay here with me
Because that's how it ought to be
You've come this far to see who you are
See the love inside yourself
So don't be afraid I'm holding your hand
Just let the love run freely through me

You're so tangled up in love
Searching for your soul, searching for yourself
So tangled up in love
That you can't see anything else

Chorus:
My oh my
Do I have to tell you how to live your life
Ooh baby don't you know, now that your mine
You've got to set your loving free

(Chorus)

Tell me you see all we can be
That we can be magical
Throw off your pride and show me inside
Show me what your frightened of

You're so tangled up in love
Searching for your soul, searching for yourself
So tangled up in love
That you can't see anything else

(Chorus)

You're so tangled up in love
Searching for your soul, searching for yourself
So tangled up in love
That you can't see anything else

(Chorus)


12.Let's Just Call It Love

Let's just do it...
Let's Just Call It Love
Is it any wonder I feel beautiful tonight

'Cause the spell I'm under makes the stars shine oh so bright
Is it affection 'cause I think I like it
Whatever you're doing to me there's no way to describe it
So

Chorus:

Let's just call it love
You call it what you want call it emotion
Let's just call it love
You can call it a feeling call it a notion
Let's just call it love

You can say that it's right you can say that it's wrong
But baby it's just too damn good
Let's just call it love
Let's just call it love

I'm caught up in the moment I could be anywhere at all

Ain't nothin' that can bring me down no 'cause baby I feel ten
feet tall
Is it obsession 'cause though I like it
It's really taken a hold of me now and I don't want to fight it
No no so

(Chorus)

You can call it anything anything at all
We can take it anywhere anywhere we want to
'Cause you and me baby it's what we need
So let's see that sun we've got all night long
Let's go on and on (x 4)

(Chorus x 2 and Fade)


13.Never, Never Gonna Give You Up

Spoken:
Oh baby, you know I've waited, waited so long
To sing...to sing this song

Whatever, whatever, babe I'll do it
Forever and ever, yeah. yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'll see you through it

I've got to keep you pleased in every way I can
Gonna give you all of me, as much or you can stand

I know you need it boy and you know

And all of my days I hoped and I prayed
For someone just like you to makes me feel the way you do

And all of my days I hoped and I prayed
For someone just like you to makes me feel the way you do

(Chorus x 2)


14.These Are The Days Of Our Life

Sometimes I get to feeling
I was back in the old days - long ago
When we were kids, when we were young
Things seemed so perfect, you know?
The days were endless, we were crazy, we were young
The sun was always shining, we just live for fun
Sometimes it seems like lately I just don*t know
The rest of my life's been just a show

Chorus:
Those were the days of our lives
The bad things in life were so few
Those days are all gone now but one thing is true
When I look and I find, I still love you

You can't turn back the clock, you can't turn back the tide
Ain't that a shame? (ain't that a shame?)
I'd like to go back one time on a roller coaster ride
When life was just a game
No use in sitting and thinking on what you did
When you can lay back and enjoy it through your kids
Sometimes it seems like lately I just don't know
Better sit back and go with the flow

'Cause these are the days of our lives
They've flown in the swiftness of time
These days are gone but now some things remain
When I look and I find no change

(Chorus)

I still love you
Still love you


15.Down In The Depths

With a million neon rainbows burning below me,
And a million blazing taxis raising a roar,
Here I sit, above the town,
In my pet-palliated gown,
Down in the depths
On the ninetieth floor

While the crowds in all the nightclubs punish the parquet,
And the bars are packed with couples calling for more,
I'm deserted and depressed
In my regal-eagle mess,
Down in the depths
On the ninetieth floor

When the only one you wanted wants another,
What's the use of swank and cash in a bank galore?
Why, even the janitor's wife
Has a perfectly good love life,
And here am I, facing tomorrow,
Alone in my sorrow,
Down in the depths
On the ninetieth floor

(Repeat)

Down in the depth
On the ninetieth floor
With a million neon rainbows burning below me


16.All Woman

He's home again from another day
She smiles at him as he walks through the door
She wonders if it will be okay
It's hard for her when he doesn't respond

He says babe you look a mess
You look dowdy in that dress
It's just not like it used to be
Then she says...

Chorus:
I may not be a lady
But I'm all woman
From monday to sunday I work harder than you know
I'm no classy lady
But I'm all woman
And this woman needs a little love to make her strong
You're not the only one

She stands there and lets the tears flow
Tears that she's been holding back so long
She wonders where did all the loving go
The love they used to share when they were strong

She says yes I look a mess
But I don't love any less
I thought you always thought enough of me to always be impressed

(Chorus)

He holds her and hangs his head in shame
He doesn't see her like he used to do
He's too wrapped up in working for his pay
He hasn't seen the pain he's put her through

Attention that he paid
Just vanished in the haze
He remembers how it used to be
When he used to say

You'll always be a lady
'Cos you're all woman
From monday to sunday I love you much more than you know
You're a classy lady
'Cos you're all woman
This woman needs a loving man to keep her warm

You're the only one
You're a classy lady
'Cos you're all woman

So sweet the love that used to be
So sweet the love that used to be

We can be sweet again...


17.All Around The World

Spoken:
I don't know where my baby is
but I'll find him, somewhere, somehow
I've got to let him know how much I care
I'll never give up looking for my baby

Chorus:
Been around the world and I, I, I
I can't find my baby
I don't know when, I don't know why
Why he's gone away
And I don't know where he can be, my baby
But I'm gonna find him

We had a quarrel and I let myself go
I said so many things, things he didn't know
And I was oh oh so bad
And I don't think he's comin' back, mm mm

He gave the reason, the reasons he should go
And he said so many things he never said before
And he was oh oh so mad
And I don't think he's comin', comin' back

I did too much lyin', wasted too much time,
Now I'm here a'cryin', I, I, I

(Chorus)

So open hearted, he never did me wrong
I was the one, the weakest one of all
And now I'm oh oh so sad
And I don't think he's comin' back, comin' back

I did too much lyin', wasted too much time,
Now I'm here a'cryin', I, I, I

(Chorus x 2)

I'm gonna find him, my baby

I did too much lyin', wasted too much time,
Now I'm here a'cryin', I, I, I

(Chorus)

I've been around the world, lookin' from my baby
Been around the world, and I'm gonna
I'm gonna find him

(Chorus)


18.The Line

I look at the sky to where my future's lying
And I almost start to cry
Blinded by the sun I'm trying to hold onto
The very last of precious time

Then I start to thinking what a mess we're making
And it won't get better by & by
Well we can paint it up and make it pretty but
We cannot overstep the line

Chorus:
We cannot overstep
We cannot overstep the
We cannot overstep the line

So many baby's arms with nothing to hold onto
But just a precious flake of life
You think you care about them
They think you care about them
But thinking's only wasting time

If we really want to say the things we want to
It takes a bigger man to try
Well we can paint it up and make it pretty but
We cannot overstep the line

(Chorus)

Well politicians sit and pretend they give a shit while
Little men go out to die
The only arms they're hugging are the ones they're running
Later to be justified

I say I don't mind
You say you don't mind
But what about the babies and what about the sunshine
Well we can paint it up and make it pretty but
We cannot overstep the line

(Chorus)

Say I don't mind
You say you don't mind
But what about the babies and what about the sunshine
Well we can point it up and make it pretty but
We cannot overstep the line

(Chorus)


19.8-3-1

The way I want you babe
It's embarrassing
I can't control myself
It's just too much for me
I can't concentrate
I don't know what to say
Except your name baby
The sweetest name

And when we kiss that kiss
That's when it hits
With my heart and soul I say this

8 letters, 3 words, one meaning
In my heart
8 letters, 3 words, one feeling
When it starts

When you say my name
I begin to shake
I break out in a sweat
This is the best it gets
There's nothing second rate
About this feeling babe
It's forever come what may
It's what I hope and pray yeah
And when we kiss that kiss
That's when it hits
With my heart and soul I say this baby

8 letters, 3 words, one meaning
In my heart
8 letters, 3 words, one feeling
When it starts
8 letters, 3 words, one meaning
In my heart
8 letters, 3 words, one feeling
When it starts

It's understanding and it's understood
And baby it sure feels good

8 letters, 3 words, one meaning
In my heart
8 letters, 3 words, one feeling
When it starts

And when we kiss that kiss
That's when it hits
With my heart and soul I say this baby

8 letters, 3 words, one meaning
In my heart
8 letters, 3 words, one feeling
When it starts


20.Never Gonna Fall

I searched, I found and I lost love
Now I've started all over
Now not a day goes by when
I'm not sure you're the one

'Cos you give me something baby
It's a feeling I just can't contain
You give me something baby
And it's something I'll never find again

Chorus:
You give me love you give me life
Darlin' what more can I want
I'm never gonna fail in love again
You're givin' me something more and I know

And your touch is so tender
I'm so at home in your caress

Knowing that I can survive

I got you baby, you baby, you
I got you baby, you baby, you
