RIVER UNBROKEN

(Darrell Brown - David Batteau) « © '87 Darrell Brown Music, ASCAP »
Waitin' for the train to come
I keep a waitin' for the train to come
Dreaming of the river and the rising sun
I keep thinking bout the world to come

My life packed up in a suitcase old man strain from a doorway
My hope tarries in the distance
Love comes on the wheels of my delieverence
Oh where is the river unbroken oh when will the whistle blow

Waitin' for the train to come
I keep a waitin' for the train to come
Keeping my appointment with the one who lives
In the heart of everything that is

All night sleeping in a station my God it's hard not to be impatient
I watch through the windows of forgiveness
I cry but my word's my only witness
Oh where is the river unbroken oh when will the whistle blow
Oh where is the river unbroken oh when will the whistle blow

(Sometimes I feel I can't go on) I can't go on
(I get so tired all passion's gone my heart my head my arms my legs)
I get so tired
(Without the strenght to crawl away then something breaks inside my soul)
My strenght had gone
(That spirit finaly taking hold my ears can hear my eyes can see)
Those clouds of joy still cover me cover me cover me

Oh where is the river unbroken oh when will the whistle blow
Oh where is the river unbroken oh when will the whistle blow
Oh where is the river unbroken oh when will the whistle blow

I KNOW YOU BY HEART

(George Merrill - Shannon Rubicam - Dean Pitchford) « © '87 Boy Meets Girl Music. BMI »
[ with Smokey Robinson ]
Everybody want to find a love somebody somebody who would always care
We get locked up in our own worlds with feelings and secrets we're afraid to share

But all I have to do is see your smile and maybe just maybe if I brush your hand
Something happens I cannot ecplain and somehow oh somehow I can understand
I think you're gonna find gonna find you I'm reading your mind gonna find you

I know you by heart and you're so much a part of me
I know you by heart yes I do
It's no wonder I can love you the way that I do
I can finish any sentense you start
I know you I know you by heart

I know every time they're gonna call I pick up the phone before it ever rings
And when you need some loving I'll be there beside you anticipating everything
It's like I always said you're the one I want I'm inside your head all I want is you

I know you by heart...
[ harmonica ] I know you by heart...

DUMP AND DUDE

(Stephen H. Dorff - Allan Rich) « © '87 Songs Of Universal, BMI »
He's got you cryin' oh he's done it again he's made a date and he didn't show
You know he's done this to you so many times when you gonna let him go
He doesn't treat you like a lover should he could be so downright cruel
Can't understand why you're hanging with him girl don't you be a fool

Go on and dump the dude you know he's got a rotten attitude
He always leaves you in a crying mood
Take my advice don't you think twice
Listen to what I'm telling you go on and dump the dude

You know that we've been friends for so many years
And I've never ever seen you this way
So torn apart how he gets to your heart with all the little games that he plays
Just give him up and let him out of your life promise me that once and for all
You're gonna tell him that it's over and done the very next time he calls

Ain't you now dump the dude...
[ sax ] I don't know why you'd want to settle for less when you could have so much more
You know that you deserve only the best so what are you waitin' for

Go on and dump the dude...

RED HOT SCREAMING LOVE

(Mike Chapman) « © '87 Island Music »
I can't even begin to tell you how I've been feeling lately
But I have stumbled across something rare and you used to bait me

Something tells me go everyone says no no no no no
How they can be so cruel when they tell me don't touch you
I tell them I'll die
In your red hot screaming love in your red hot screaming love
[ piano ] If I'm losing my senses they're lost in your deepest emotions
And the jets in my heart they won't start till you set them in motion

Something tells me go...
In your red hot screaming love in your red hot screaming love

MAKE LOVE WORK

(Eric Kaz) « © '87 Zena Music, ASCAP »
Of all the roads I've traveled and all the sights I've seen
The most amazing thing is the power of our dreams
And anything is possible for those who can believe
Just get your heart to rearrange its priorities

For us to make love work we got to try just a little bit harder
For love to work we gotta hold on
A human heart is just too precious to spend it feeling hurt
Let's start to take the chance to make love work

It takes faith in one another to see things eye to eye
And it's hard to trust but you know it's worth to try
There's a candle in my window and whenever you feel blue
You can bet your bottom dollar I'll be there for you

For us to make love work...

Oh I do believe in miracles but I know they won't come easy
So why don't we give destiny a helping hand

For us to make love work...

EVERYDAY HERO

(Blaise Tosti - Robert O'Hearn) « © '87 Songyard Music, ASCAP »
He takes the train into the city to him it's more than just a working day
Cause he knows he can change the world in his ordinary way
She's got a job she has a family she tries to keep them both together
She's barely gettin' by saving everything she makes
Day by day it seems it's gettin' harder to win
Hown much longer ready for their ship to come in

These are the times of the everyday hero this is the battlefield of the working man
Tryin' to survive staying alive giving it all that he can
With a fire in his soul that keeps burning and a dream in her heart that won't die
Living day to day there's no easy way in this everyday life

They started out as high school sweethearts he promised her a life of luxury
Though they don't have riches they have everything they need
The eyes of her child are her diamonds the gift of his love are her pearl
Together they plan taking a stand to make this a better world
But never breaking knowing that their dreams will begin
Getting stronger in each other's arms

There are the times of the everyday hero...

Everybody has a special reason there's a chosen road to follow
Just remember nothing good comes easy
Don't surrender till you find your rainbow
[ guitar ] These are the times of the everyday hero...

TWO LOVERS

(Smokey Robinson) « © '87 Jobete Music, ASCAP »
Well I've got two lovers and I ain't ashamed
Two lovers and I love 'em both the same

Let me tell you bout my first lover
He's sweet and kind and he's mine all mine
He treats me good like a lover should
And makes me love him I really really love him
Oh oh oh I love him so
And I'll do everything I can to let him know

But I've got two lovers and I ain't ashamed...

Let me tell you bout my other lover
Well you know he treats me bad makes me sad
He makes me cry but still I can't deny
That I love him I really really love him
Oh oh oh I love him so
And I'll do everything I can to let him know

Oh but darling well don't you know that I can tell
Whenever I look at you that you think that I'm untrue
Cause I said that I love two but I really really do
Cause you're a split personality and in reality both of them are you

But I've got two lovers and I ain't ashamed...
Well I've got two lovers and I ain't ashamed
Cause both of 'm I love the same

COULD I HAVE YOUR AUTOGRAPH

(Dolly Parton) « © '87 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
Hello I don't know you from Adam you don't know me from Eve
I just came here tonight cause I was lonely
You're no Elvis Presley I'm no Marilyn Monroe
But I do think you're sexy just thought I'd tell you so

Hey could I have your autograph
Your name and your number on a small photograph
I'd like to know you and what you're all about
Hey could I have your autograph

I've had my eyes on you and you're worth looking at
Could I ask you out or should a lady do that
You may not be famous but you look like a star
You should be in movies as cute as you are

Hey could I have your autograph
Your name and your number on a small photograph
Could I interest you in a romance perhaps
Hey could I have your autograph

Got my heart in my hand and my head in the clouds
And you're everything every girl dreams about
And being with you would be heaven no doubt
Oh what I wouldn't do for your autograph
Oh could I have your autograph
Oh could I have your autograph
[ guitar ] Hey could I have your autograph
I like your body could I help you work it out
Mayby movin' to the music get it on the phonograph
Hey could I have your autograph

Hey could I have your autograph
You know you're just the kind to make a woman real proud
Would you take a chance on a girl from the south
Hey could I have your autograph

(Dino Fekaris - D. Loeb) « © '87 Stone Agate Music, BMI »
I've been waiting for so long for someone who's as wonderful as you
Someone who's kind and always cares and baby you're the answer to my prayers
You appear and I'm brand new I love it hey I love it cause it's you
And for all the sweet things that you do you got a little present coming you

You pick me up you keep me high up in the sky
Honey yes you fill my cup you keep a shany and twinkling light in the eye

All those worries back in town forget 'em cause they're nowhere to be found
All you find right here is love and you're what I've been dreamin' of
Close the door and feel the fire I'll love you hey I'll love you to the wire
And for the wonders you inspire you got a little present coming you

You pick me up you keep me high up in the sky...

Let's say hello a special way lovers who love and love to play

And you alone that turns me on anticipation now is gone and we're alone
Now just get comfy and oh yeah unplug the phone

MORE THAN I CAN SAY

(Dolly Parton) « © '87 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
Your love is like a gentle breeze that's always blowin' over me
I know you're all I'll ever need in each and every way
You're both ends of the rainbow my colors and my pot of gold
I love you with a love untold more than I can say

You are the song of every bird you are the poet's every word
Every artist's picture every writer's play
You are the glow in every night you are the warmth in each sunrise
Makes no difference how I try it's more than I can say

And when I've needed you you've always been there for me
Been my friend and stood by me held me as you loved the world away
And when I've wanted you you have satisfied my needs fulfilled all my fantasies
I love you more and more each day more than I can say

Oh sometimes I watch you gently sleep listen as you softly breathe
Touch your skin and kiss you sweet love you all the way
I reach for you you come to me and love me into ecstasy
I will love you endlessly more than I can say

And when I've needed you...
