1.At Night I Pray

(wild orchid, bobby sandstrom, micki duran)

So alone
And this room feels so cold
No one to care and no one to hold
Yeah the lord knows
That i'm needing somebody like you, just like you
Can you see
The passion burning in my eyes
Do you sense
The rush you give my heart
And if you knew
The secret way i feel for you
Would you come running
To me or would you turn away

At night i pray
With hope and faith
As i lay me down to sleep
I pray together we will be
And there will come a time
You'll be mine, all mine
And i'll be yours always
But until that day comes at night i'll pray

Should i feel
These emotions deep inside me
Should i reveal what's locked up in my soul
I'm so afraid
But it's something that you've got to know
How i want
To touch you every time you're near
I long to feel
Your body next to mine
And if you knew
The secret love i have for you
Would you come running to me or would you turn away

If all my prayers were answered
Our hearts would be enraptured
We would find our heaven
Inside each other's arms
This lonely room would finally see the sun shine through
But until that day every night i'll pray
I'll get down on my knees, i'll get down on my knees and pray...


2.Follow Me

In the middle of the rapture - tell me where will you go
Baby don't get captured - 'cause then i'll have to follow

I will follow you anywhere
Oh, where you are i will be there
Then you'll follow me

In the middle of the ocean - tell me where will you be
Once you reach your destination - look around
You will find i will follow you anywhere
Oh where you are i will be there, then you'll follow me

Just follow me, let your mind be free
I will be waiting
Just follow me, so patiently
Love will be waiting

In the middle of the desert - thirstin' for what's out of reach
Lift your hands up to the sky - and you'll touch a part of me
"cause you know where you are i will be there
Just follow me. come on. so patiently, love will be waiting

As you're runnin' from the thunder - listen though the pouring
rain

And you'll hear a silent echo - i'll be calling out your name
I will follow you anywhere
Oh where you are i will be there


3.He's Alright

He's alright, my baby is alright
He knows what i like naturally
My man is alright. yeah he's got it right
My baby's alright alright with me

There are men, then there are men
And mine is a mercedes benz
He's so strong, yet so gentle
He always knows the right thing to say
Even on my bad days
Makes no demands, he understands
He's not afraid to day (i love you)
Maybe he don't live (in a mansion)

But he' revs me up, the lovin' that
He gives to me is enough

He's versatile and that really gets me
If you know what i mean
He's mystical, logical
He brightens up the (darkest day)
Maybe he don't wear (valantino)
But he don't care (because he knows)
That what's inside is better than anything money can buy

He's alright, my baby is alright
He knows what i like naturally
My man is alright. yeah he's got it alright
My baby is alright, sexually

4.I Won't Play The Fool

(sylvia bennett-smith)

The stage is set so let the curtain rise
As for the ending my dear that's for me to decide
You may think you know the role that i play
You'll be so surprised when it's not that way

I won't play the fool anymore
This time i walk out the door
And leave you standing here all alone
This time i find on my own
Someone who loves me
'cause i, i won't play the fool anymore

No more dramatic scenes, only a short goodbye
To all the lonely nights to all the good times
I found it in my heart to love
Now i must find the strength to go
Too late for happy endings
Now it's time you know
It's time you know, it's time you know

So let me dry your eyes, it's gonna be alright
But understand me when i say
It's time that we make a change
You don't have to lie no more - try no more
'cause baby one thing's for sure...
I won't play the fool anymore...


5.Life

A sister want's a brother
Always trying to please another
Young girls wish they were old
A petal wants to be it's own rose

Life has such funny ways
But don't regret you came
See life is always changing
Yet life remains the same
So much to gain...
To win...to lose...to try
Oh yeah, it's all a part of life
To heel...to feel...to be real
Oh yeah, it's all a part of life

Empty pages will find words someday
A perfect person will disobey
You may never find true love
Why must one be taken advantage of...

Life has such funny ways
But don't regret you came
See life is always changing
Still life remains the same
So much to gain...
To win...to lose...to try
Oh yeah, it's all a part of life
To laugh...to hope...to dream...to cope
It's all a part of life

Oh no, not without a fight
I won't give up... i won't give up
Don't give up... don't give up
Don't give up... don't give up...


6.Love Will Wait

Lying here alone with you
So able to be free
How easy it would be
To give you all of me

I'm closer to you now
Closer than i have ever been before
As my body starts to give it all
My heart stops to be sure that

Love will wait
More than just a minute
I'm telling you that
Love will wait
It holds what lies within it
And time will only help us grow
And when we let these feelings go
Waiting there will be love

I feel the ticking of your heart
It's beating so close to mine
Still i don't want to go too far
Until i know that it's right

Someday when we explore
When we explore the world that's yet unknown
The beauty of it will be worth
The patience that we've shown

We've both been there before at times too blind to see that love
will wait...
(love will wait) and when i open up my eyes i see your face
still smiles
That's when i know that


7.My Tambourine

Aren't you gonna come 'cause you wanna come
Won't you come play...
Yeah i got a little somethin' i want you to play with
And it ain't a little somethin' i usually want you to play with
You see i'm looking for a new one to join my band
I promise you'll have lots of fun
Once you take it in your hand

What a gentle sound what a pretty little sound
When you shake it all around
It's making me move 'cause you know just what to do
You're the best i've ever found

What a lovely sound what a sexy little sound
It'll never let you down
'cause i know that you can make it scream... ow!

My tambourine
Won't you come and play
My tambourine
Cradle it in your palm
My tambourine
Now get down on your knees and play
My tambourine

Now i see you wanna keep on playing the same old tune
So you better come to practice to learn something new
And if you're looking for somebody who'll guide you through
Then you already met your match
'cause honey i can shake it, too

What a gentle sound what a pretty little sound
When i shake it all around
It's making you move cause i know just what to do
I'm the best you've ever found

What a lovely sound what a sexy little sound
It'll never let you down
'cause i know that i can make it scream...ow

If you want to come and play
You better be on your way
'cause it'll be here waiting
And if you want to maybe stay
You know that it's okay
'cause it'll keep on playing

What a gentle sound what a pretty little sound
When you shake it all around
It's makin' me move cause you know just what to do
You're the best i've ever found

What a lovely little sound what a sexy little sound
It'll never let you down
'cause i know that you can make it scream
Because i know that you can make it scream
Oh yeah...
Oh, i wonder how you make it scream...

Aren't you gonna come 'cause you wanna come
Won't you come and play

My tambourine...


8.Supernatural

(wild orchid, sturken, rogers)

Love is like a river
Flowing deeper than time
Rushing over my senses
Like sweet cherry wine
Stole my emotion
Like a thief in the night
Love made me an offer
I couldn't deny
You raise me up until i can't see the ground
Wanna tell the whole world about this love that i've found

Supernatural love
You're giving me
Supernatural high
Heaven sent from above
Supernatural love
Oh, supernatural

I'd like to thank you
For changing my world
You made a woman
From a lost little girl
My soul was searching
Searching to find
Something to cherish
A love so divine

I'm hypnotized by feelings i've never felt
It's like your magic put me under a spell

Keep on, keep on giving me
Keep on, keep on giving me
Keep on giving me
Supernatural love

I'm hypnotized by feelings i've never felt
It's like your magic put me under a spell

Lift me up higher, higher and higher
Lift me up higher than i've ever been before
Lift me higher, higher and higher
With supernatural love

Keep on, keep on giving me, keep on...

Keep on, keep on giving me, keep...


9.Talk To Me

(armato, vasquez)

Talk to me
Talk to me
Talk to me tonight about love

Hey now just what are we feeling
Is this more than attraction
That we both are dealing with
And is it in the cards that we stay together
I recognize the odds against it lasting forever

There's a message that you're sending
I can see it in your eyes
But i don't know what you're thinking
I can't read your heart or mind
Come with me we'll make tonight a fantasy
If you say the word, i'll take you on a journey


10.The River

I went to the river, thinkin' 'bout jumpin' in
Thinkin' 'bout your ways baby
Trying to forget how to swim
As i stood there, watching the train go by
Oh what a message - that's when i realized

Oh baby, is it gonna last very long
Look at the river and how it keeps movin' on
Oh baby, what we have is almost gone
Look at the river and how it keeps movin' on
Movin' on

My emotions move with the current and the wind
No direction and no definite end
That's when i realized how the ripples
In the water seemed to shine
Reminds me of you and i baby, at one point in time

And just like a river - like a river flowin' - into a waterfall
After falling are we moving on - i can feel the flow

Under the train bridge - it keeps movin' on
Goes down to the whirlpool - it keeps movin' on
No still waters baby, gonna hold me down
All i wanna know is - are you comin' with me


11.You Don't Own Me

There we were
On a sunday afternoon
Just holding hands
Lovers making future plans together
We though forever, forever, yeah

Now here we are
That hand that used to hold me gently
Doesn't know when to let me go
It holds too tight now
And we just fight now
Where is the love

You don't own me
Can't control me
I'm not gonna change for nobody

You don't own me
You can't chain me down
If i'm the one you love
Then set me free
Set me free

Side by side
We should walk together
See love eye to eye
Remember all the reasons why you love me
Strength within me
Can't tie it down

You're not my mother
Not my father
You're supposed to be my lover
Not my sister
Not my brother
Gotta be more than just another
Another guy forgettin' the combination to my heart
Just another page inside a book without a mark
Love won't be my ball and chain
Driving me insane
cause you're holding me down
Stop holdin' me down

You don't own me
You can't chain me down
If i'm the one you love
Then set me free
