Wendy Lisa Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.Igabbo Cherries

Wendy & Lisa
Miscellaneous
Igabbo Cherries
i've got a big bowl of cherries
and i eat them
one by one
the sweet and sour come
i taste them
one by one
until the bowl is gone
and i've got a big bowl of cherries
and they make my lips turn red
and then my face and head
because of what i've said
but this is the life i've lead

and sometimes
i wonder why i'm here
and then i'm just glad i'm not over there.
and then there is
you who
makes life a dream.
and sometimes i'm nowhere................

i measure every day
and wonder what to say
but i'm thankful
anyway.
oh i'm thankful.......
and i'm thankful anyway.


2.Invisible

Lyricist:Lisa Coleman, Wendy Melvoin

Those years were mine
And I made us greater than our time
Why don't you see the light you had because of me
When you were mine

The sun is gone and I made it disappear
No lights are on and now
And that is unless I'm near, shine, shine, shine
Like when you were mine

Invisible, I will not be
(I will not appear)
Invisible, I will not be
(Can we make it clear)
Invisible, I will not be

I am victory, you think I'm mercenary
I'm luck not greed
I'm extraordinary like when you were mine
Shine, shine, shine

Invisible, I will not be
(I will not appear)
Invisible, I will not be
(Can we make it clear)
Invisible, I will not be

Shine, shine, shine
What you believe in won't set you free
When you're high on power
Shine

All my glitter turns to gold
I owe my beauty and my soul
And for a price, I make you feel something
Better every time like when you were mine

Invisible, I will not be
(I will not appear)
Invisible, I will not be
(Can we make it clear)
Invisible, I will not be

What you believe in won't set you free
(Invisible, invisible)
When your high on power, is me
(Invisible, invisible)

So I'm gonna stand here until you see
(Invisible, invisible)
And shout, hallelujah at my feet
(Invisible, invisible)

What you believe in is what I fear
(Invisible, invisible)
I've walked in your garden
(Invisible)
The taste is your tears
(Invisible, invisible)


3.Sideshow

Lyricist:Lisa Coleman, Wendy Melvoin, Bobby Rivkin

Come in, take a chair
Nothing else to do out there
Is what you want, what you need
Decisions made in privacy

Step right up and name your game
Take a chance, pick a card, any card
I'll guess your age, I'll name your fate
Don't be shy I'm waiting

Come to the sideshow
Come to the sideshow, yeah
Come to the sideshow
Come and get your mind blown, yeah

Mysterious and curious
Boredom is so serious
The red velvet curtain draws
There's no way to hide your flaws

Now you've come to see your show
It feels like what you've learned ain't vogue
Do you know what you're looking at
Can you see what is staring back

You're in the sideshow
Come to the sideshow, yeah
Come to the sideshow
Come and get your mind blown, yeah

The government, firmament, spearmint, double mint
Handshaking, green berets, looking cool and talking sharp
And you say this and that and that ain't where it's at

Time can wash away the fears
Stay away from the devil's tears
Get off your knees and on your feet
Can you feel the heartbeat

Come to the sideshow
Come to the sideshow, yeah
Come to the sideshow
Come and get your mind blown, yeah

Time can wash away the fears
Stay away from the devil's tears
Off your knees and on your feet
Don't be shy I'm waiting

Come to the sideshow
Come to the sideshow, yeah
Come to the sideshow
Come and get your mind blown, yeah

Come to the sideshow
Come to the sideshow, yeah
Come to the sideshow
Come and get your mind blown, yeah

Come to the sideshow
You're in the sideshow
Come to the sideshow
Come and get your mind blown

Come to the sideshow
Come and get your mind blown, yeah
Come to the sideshow
Come get your mind blown
Come to the sideshow


4.Honeymoon Express

Lyricist:Lisa Coleman, Wendy Melvoin, Bobby Rivkin

I get so lonely when I think of you
I get the feeling our love is never new
We watched each other going many different ways

Come with me let's meet at the station
Where we first started
Then we make love, life in the world
Seems like we're living on rainbows

Take a ride
On the Honeymoon Express
Take a ride
On the Honeymoon Express

You're dreaming of me, I am dreaming of you
How long will it be till the dreaming is through?
Take me now let's go for a ride

Come with me let's meet at the station
Where we first started
Then we make love, life in the world
Seems like we're living on rainbows

Take a ride
On the Honeymoon Express
Take a ride
On the Honeymoon Express

Come with me let's meet at the station
Where we first started
Then we make love, life in the world
Seems like we're living on rainbows

Take a ride

5.Waterfall

Lyricist:Lisa Coleman, Wendy Melvoin, Bobby Rivkin

Move slow
Now your time's at hand
Take heed
'Cause our love has passed

Hot fuse
Can be short or long
The time bomb
Of your life has come

People may come, people may go
Just as long as the water's slow
But watch out when you're
Headed for the waterfall

Dry land is just a love away
Warm sun and a place to lay
I see your future
The water above you calm and clear

People may come, people may go
Just as long as the water's slow
But watch out when you're
Headed for the waterfall

Love lost always makes one sad
You seem
You seem to rise instead
Feel the water, ice cool water

People may come, people may go
Just as long as the water's slow
But watch out when you're
Headed for the waterfall

People may come, people may go
Just as long as the water's slow
But watch out when you're
Headed for the waterfall, the waterfall

Feel the water, ice cool water
Feel the water, ice cool water

People may come, people may go
Just as long as the water's slow
But watch out when you're
Headed for the waterfall

People may come, people may go
Just as long as the water's slow
But watch out when you're
Headed for the waterfall

Waterfall
Waterfall


6.Chance to Grow

Lyricist:Lisa Coleman, Wendy Melvoin, Bobby Rivkin

There's a love on the edge
So suspicion attracts revenge
Then there's no communication
When we fall, by the wayside

Hold me up, don't bring me down
Take all the room to build this love
Don't build it up to tear it down
You plant the seed in love, you've found
That everybody needs a chance to grow

There's a love on the wing
I swear this time is really it
When you tell me you, love me
No need to go, put yourself above me

Hold me up, don't bring me down
Take all the room to build this love
Don't build it up to tear it down
You plant the seed in love, you've found
That everybody needs a chance to grow

Hold me up, don't bring me down
Take all the room to build this love
Don't build it up to tear it down
You plant the seed in love, you've found

Oh, hold me up, don't bring me down
Take all the room to build this love
'Cause everybody needs a chance to grow


7.Everyday

Lyricist:Charles Holly, Norman Petty

Everyday the sun comes up
I got no one that I can trust
How can I face another day
Without the love each night I pray for

Everyday
Everyday
Everyday
Everyday I want you more

Everyday I call you up
You're not there to pick it up
I'm the one who wishes every night
Upon a star, a star so very bright

Everyday
Everyday
Everyday
Everyday I want you more

My body's beggin' baby for your touch
I never needed anything so much
I know you want me baby, don't make me act so crazy
I've been loving you, breathing you, being you my whole life

Everyday
Everyday, no no no
Everyday
Everyday I want you more

I see myself inside your eyes

Everyday
Everyday
Everyday
Everyday I want you more

Sad is everyday, you walk away
Waiting for the day, you look my way
For the love of you each night I pray

Sad is everyday
I want you more

Sad is everyday, you walk away
Waiting for the day, you look my way
For the love of you each night I pray

Sad is everyday, you walk away
Waiting for the day, you look my way
For the love of you each night I pray

Sad is everyday, you walk away

Everyday


8.You & I

Lyricist:Lisa Coleman, Wendy Melvoin

Sun kills the moon, the moon starts to cry
The rivers fight the oceans, the oceans rage at night
And you and I, runnin' at a time

The moon kills the sun, the sun doesn't mind
And darkness is only home for the night
And you and I, runnin' at a time

Ooh, I'm so low, why can't we let go?
You and I

And like a shadow gone with the light
And you and I runnin' at a time

Ooh, I'm so low, why can't we let go?
Ooh, you and I, you and I
You and I, you and I


9.Satisfaction

Lyricist:Coleman Lisa, Johnson Jesse Woods, Melvoin Wendy

Every time you come around, it makes me crazy
Crazy enough to think you'll ask me out
Yes, you are the talk of the town, so congratulations
With a smile as good as gold, so don't wear a frown

Every time I see you down, still you're not to bitter
You don't need a babysitter to keep you on your cloud
Baby you know it's true I'll never be too uptight
To wrap you in my love to just satisfy ya

Didn't your mama tell ya?
Didn't your papa tell ya
To get a little satisfaction?

Every time you come around my heart beats a little
Faster, you're all the drug I'm sure I'll ever need
All the time I do believe your love is like a prayer
I can take you there if you feel the need

If you let me have it all I'll shoot for satisfaction
'Cause nothing ever meant so much to me
But keep in your mind we've got to keep on dancing
If all else fails won't you dance with me

Didn't your mama tell ya
Didn't your papa tell ya
To get a little satisfaction?
If love can melt down barriers
I think I'll marry ya

Every time I turn around
The shadow of you is still with me
But a shadow just can't take the place of you
When we touch caress cool kiss me deep, my baby
All I have is for ya

Didn't your mama tell ya?
Didn't your papa tell ya
To get a little satisfaction?
If love can melt down barriers
I think I'll marry ya


10.Tears Of Joy

Lyricist:Alan Bergman, Marilyn Bergman, Melissa Manchester

In the morning I wake up
Turn around and there's no one there
Wash my hair, do my make up
It's a new day out there

Tears of joy, smiles of sorrow
Where do such strange feelings come from?
Can't be sure of tomorrow
But I know the day will come

Tears of joy, smiles of sorrow
I finally know what I'm looking for
And I'm sure that tomorrow
Say, hello and I'll be yours

Say, hello, such a strange word
Such a strange way to say hello
It's so hard for me sometimes
Like love's first night alone

Anyway, it's a pleasure
To know someone's waiting just for me
I'll find my buried treasure
And tears of joy will rain on me

Tears of joy, smiles of sorrow
Where do such strange feelings come from?
Can't be sure of tomorrow
But I know the day will come

Tears of joy, smiles of sorrow
I finally know what I'm looking for
And I'm sure that tomorrow
Say, hello and I'll be yours

Can you hear me breathing?
I just know that you are listening
And I'm longing to know you
You're no stranger to me

In the morning I'll wakeup
Turn around and you will be there
I'll kiss you and you'll wake up
And run you fingers through my hair

Tears of joy, smiles of sorrow
Where do such strange feelings come from?
Can't be sure of tomorrow
But I know the day will come

Tears of joy, smiles of sorrow
I finally know what I'm looking for
And I'm sure that tomorrow
Say, hello and I'll be yours
And I'll be yours and I'll be yours


11.I Think It Was December

Lyricist:Coleman Lisa, Melvoin Wendy

There was a time, I think it was December
Just like a fire, I lost my mind, this I do remember
I was a child, pretty and wild
I thought I was an angel

Oh, what a day, that wonderful day
I know that God, He heard me pray
Oh, on that day, He heard me say
I'll spread my wings and fly away

Just like the sky, I don't mind stormy weather
'Cause it's the power that I once know and it makes me feel
better
I have a child, she's pretty and wild
And this I'm going to tell her

Oh, what a day, that wonderful day
I know that God, He heard me pray
Oh, on that day, He heard me say
I'll spread my wings and fly away
Fly away, fly away, fly away

When I grow old, I know I won't forget
That I'm still that child, pretty and wild
In this late December, I'll fly away
The story remains and I hope you will remember

You're an angel, everybody sing
We are angels and together we can fly away

Oh, what a day, wonderful day
I know that God, He heard me pray
Oh, on that day, He heard me say
I'll spread my wings and fly away

Oh, what a day, wonderful day
I know that God, He heard me pray
Oh, on that day, He heard me say
I'll spread my wings and fly away
Fly away, fly away


12.Song About

Lyricist:Coleman Lisa, Melvoin Wendy

It makes me want to cry thinking about you
Beautiful, you said the way you shook your head
So strange, that no one stayed
At the end of the parade

This is just another song about it
This is just another song about

Standing next to me
Imagine that it's true
You where singing songs about life or doom
I was singing songs to you

This is just another song about it
This is just another song about

I gave colors to you, you'll ever see
You washed my heart with many dreams, dreams I'd never seen
The pain of my spirit, the pain of my heart
Don't ever tell me to let it all go

This is just another song about it
This is just another song about
...


13.Fruit At The Bottom

Lyricist:Coleman Lisa, Melvoin Wendy

I took my girlfriend to the neighborhood store
Reached in my pocket lookin' down at the floor
My friend said, â½Hey girlâ, as I bumped into the door
I grabbed my head tight so I wouldn't feel sore

Oh, oh, I went back home to take a little snooze
I said, â½What the hell, there's nothing else I can doâ
And when I got up, I tripped over my shoes
Decided to go out, 'cause I got nothin', nothin' to lose

Baby
Something's coming
Something's coming
Something's coming

Go to the closet, ain't got nothin' to wear
Go to the cupboard and the cupboard is bare
Go to my parents and there's nobody there
Get a flat tire and I ain't got a spare

But I'm not worried, 'cause I know what I need
I got a lover and it's his love I feed
A real sweet cup will keep him up
Till morning comes

Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
My lover's got um

Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
My lover's got um

I walk around but I ain't goin' nowhere
I'm on the ground but it feels like the air
My heads still achin' and I can't see straight
I missed the last bus and now I have to wait

But I'm not worried 'cause I know what I need
I got a lover and it's his love I feed
A real sweet cup will keep him up
Till morning comes

Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
My lover's got um

Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
My lover's got um

Whoo, baby, baby
Something's coming
Something's coming
Something's coming
Woah

They turned the heat off and my power too
It's so cold out now I've got the flu
Went to the doctor there was nothing he could do
Then I sneezed, auchoo

But I'm not worried, 'cause I know what I need
I got a lover and it's his love I feed
A real sweet cup will keep him up
Till morning comes

Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
My lover's got um

Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
My lover's got um

Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
My lover's got um

Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
My lover's got um

Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
My lover's got um

Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
My lover's got um

Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
Fruit at the bottom
My lover's got um

Fruit at the bottom
My lover's got um
Fruit at the bottom
My lover's got um
Fruit at the bottom

15.Everything but You

Lyricist:Bellak Rhoda, Coleman Lisa, Melvoin Wendy

I like it when you talk
It makes me laugh
It makes me cry
It hurts so much
I have to go outside
And keep going

I like it when you laugh
It makes me tired
It makes me cry
It hurts so much
I have to go outside
And keep going

You've got everything I want
I'll take anything you've got
I'll take everything but you

I like it when you scream
It makes me smile
I smile so wide
It hurts so much
I have to go outside
And keep going

You've got everything I want
I'll take anything you've got
I'll take everything but you

I like it when you talk

I'll take everything but you

I'll take everything but you


16.Someday I

Tired of pressure everyday, when will joy walk my way?
Tired of work, I wanna play, I gotta work to get paid
All my life I work so hard, got to explode to be a star

Someday I will be somebody
Someday I will see the world from way up high
Someday I

Don't know how long I have to wait, no one's counting anyway
I just hope I don't forget all the things I have to say
But I do believe it's meant to so I too must have faith

Someday I will be somebody
Someday I will see the world from way up high
Someday I

Someday I will be somebody
Someday I will see the world from way up high
Someday I

I hope I'm not misunderstood, anyway, so far so good
Like the underdog in a race with time, I'd be winning if I could
But life's too short not to try and I'm not gonna let it pass me
by

Someday I will be somebody
Someday I will see the world from way up high
Someday I

Oh, someday I
Someday I
Oh, someday I
Someday I
Someday


17.From Now On (We're One)

I used to cry, it didn't matter
I used to think I was alone
Like the clouds forever floating
I never thought I had a home

Everyday getting longer
Why was life so lonely?
So sad, so scared
I needed someone to hold me

You came along to show me
And now it's my love you own
Your heart is my home
You fill me completely
I love you so deeply
From now on we're one

So many stars in only one sky
Can it last forever
One lifetime, so many choices
Can we stay together
One truth, so many voices
How could I know better

You came along to show me
And now it's my love you own
Your heart is my home
You fill me completely
I love you so deeply
From now on we're one

I used to say it didn't matter
Now I know I do belong
My heart growing stronger
Like the dark before the dawn
Someday I'll see
What it's like to be free

You came along to show me
And now it's my love you own
Your heart is my home
You fill me completely
I love you so deeply

You came along to show me
And now it's my love you own
Your heart is my home
You fill me completely
I love you so deeply
From now on we're one

From now on we're one
From now on we're one
From now on


18.Light

Your mind
Into a free flight
Your heart
A place that's so dark

Come on people, stand up
Got to shine your light
Into your dark life, your love
This light is made of

Your life
The warmth of sunlight
Your soul a silence
So gold

Come on people, stand up
Got to shine your light
Into your dark life, your love
This light is made of

Your eyes
A place where truth tries
To hide
But truth is too bright

Come on people, stand up
Got to shine your light, on people, stand up
Got to shine your light
Into your dark life, your love
This light is made of

Light into your dark
Life your love
