Summer of '69
Straight from the heart
It's only love
Can't stop this things we started
Do I have to say the words?
This time
Run to you
Heaven
Cuts like a knife
(Everything I do) I do it for you
Somebody
Kids wanna rock
Heat of the night
Please forgive me

SUMMER OF '69
I got my first real six string
Bought it at the five and dime
Played it til my fingers bled
Was the summer of '69
Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit and Jody got married
I shoulda known we'd never get far
But when I look back now
That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice
Ya - I'd always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life
Ain't no use in complainin'
When you got a job to do
Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in
And that's when I met you - ya
Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that you'd wait forever
Oh and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life
Back in the summer of '69
Man we were killin' time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothin' can last forever - forever, no...
And now the times are changin'
Look at everything that's come and gone
Sometimes when I play that old six string
I think about ya'n wonder what went wrong
Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me it would last forever
Oh the way you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life
Back in the summer of '69
STRAIGHT FROM THE HEART
I could start dreamin' but it'd never end
As long as you're gone we may as well pretend
I've been dreamin'
Straight from the heart
You said it's easy but who's to say
That we'd be able to keep it this way
But it's easier
Comin' straight from the heart
Give it to me straight from the heart
Tell me we can make another start
You know I'll never go - as long as I know
It's comin' straight from the heart
I'll see you on the street some other time
And all our words would just fall outta line
While we're dreamin'
Straight from the heart
Give it to me straight from the heart
Tell me we can make one more start
You know I'll never go - as long as I know
It's comin' straight from the heart
IT'S ONLY LOVE
When the feelin' is ended
There ain't no use pretendin'
Don't ya worry - It's only love
When your world has been shattered
Ain't nothin' else matters
It ain't over - It's only love
And that's all - yeah
When your heart has been broken
Hard words have been spoken
It ain't easy - but it's only love
And your life ain't worth livin'
And you're ready to give in
Just remember - that it's only love
You can live without the aggravation
Ya gotta wanna win - ya gotta wanna win
You keep lookin' back in desperation
Over and over and over again
When your world has been shattered
Ain't nothin' else matters
It ain't over - It's only love
And if your life ain't worth livin'
And you're ready to give in
Just remember - that it's only love
Ya - that's all
Ya it ain't easy baby
But it's only love - and that's all
CAN'T STOP THIS THING WE STARTED
You might stop a hurricane
Might even stop the drivin' rain
You might have a dozen other guys
But if you wanna stop me baby - don't even try
I'm goin' one way - your way
It's such a strong way - let's make it our way
Can't stop this thing we started
Ya gotta know it's right
Can't stop this course we plotted
This thing called love we got it
No place for the broken hearted
Can't stop this thing we started - no way
I'm goin' your way!
You might stop the world spinnin' 'round
Might even walk on holy ground
I ain't superman and I can't fly
But if you wanna stop me baby - don't even try
I'm goin' one way - your way
It's such a strong way - let's make it our way
Can't stop this thing we started
Ya gotta know it's right
Can't stop this course we plotted
This thing called love we got it
No place for the broken hearted
Can't stop this thing we started - no way
I'm goin' your way!
Oh - why take it slow
I gotta know
Nothin' can stop - this thing that we got
DO I HAVE TO SAY THE WORDS?
Rescue me from the mire
Whisper words of desire
Rescue me - darlin' rescue me
With your arms open wide
Want you here by my side
Come to me - darlin' rescue me
When this world's closin' in
There's no need to pretend
Set me free - darlin' rescue me
I don't wanna let you go
So I'm standin' in your way
I never needed anyone like I'm needin' you today
Do I have to say the words?
Do I have to tell the truth?
Do I have to shout it out?
Do I have to say a prayer?
Must I prove to you - how good we are together?
Do I have to say the words?
Rescue me from despair
Tell me you will be there
Help me please - darlin' rescue me
Every dream that we share
Every cross that we bear
Can't you see - darlin' rescue me
I don't wanna let you go
So I'm standin' in your way
I never needed anyone like I'm needin' you today
Do I have to say the words?
Do I have to tell the truth?
Do I have to shout it out?
Do I have to say a prayer?
Must I prove to you - how good we are together?
Do I have to say the words?
THIS TIME
I think about her all the time
She's my fantasy
An image burnin' in my mind
Callin' out to me
While my imagination's runnin' wild
Yeah - things are getting clearer
This time everything is all right
No way she's gonna get away
This time everything is easy
And day - I'm gonna make her mine
I've thought of every word I'd say
Give or take a few
But she turns and slowly walks away
What am I supposed to do
Hey - turn up your radio
Oh - there's somethin' I want you to know
This time everything is all right
No way she's gonna get away
This time everything is easy
And day - I'm gonna make her mine
Well it's hard to take cause she's miles away
And I've waited a long time
But the feelin's right and darlin' one of these nights
Yeah - I'm gonna let you know
This time everything is all right
No way she's gonna get away
This time everything is easy
And day - I'm gonna make her mine
RUN TO YOU
She says her love for me could never die
But that'd change if she ever found out about you and I
Oh - but her love is cold
It wouldn't hurt her if she didn't know, cause...
When it gets too much
I need to feel your touch
I'm gonna run to you
I'm gonna run to you
Cause when the feelin's right I'm gonna run all night
I'm gonna run to you
She's got a heart of gold she'd never let me down
But you're the one that always turns me on
You keep me comin' 'round
I know her love is true
But it's so damn easy makin' love to you
I got my mind made up
I need to feel your touch
I'm gonna run to you
Ya - I'm gonna run to you
Cause when the feelin's right I'm gonna stay all night
I'm gonna run to you
Ya - I'm gonna run to you
Oh when the feelin's right I'm gonna run all night
I'm gonna run to you
HEAVEN
Oh - thinkin' about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now nothin' can take you away from me
We bin down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me comin' back for more
Baby you're all that I want
When you're lyin' her
