I'm Just A Woman

Ronnie Scott - Steve Wolfe

© Window Music, BMI

I'm just a woman you are the only man

I need you always you need me now and then
I'm just a woman you are the only man

I'm just your puppet you make me dance and sing
You know I love it letting you pull my string
I'm just a woman you are the only man

And I know if you choose
Yon can throw me away
Like some old shoe
But as long as you're there
From the bottom or my heart
I don't care

I 'm just the lover
You want along the way
I try to do it
But you always start to play
I'm just a woman
You are the only man

And I know if you choose
Yon can throw me away
Like some old shoe
But as long as you're there
From the bottom or my heart
I don't care

I'm just a woman ooh
I'm just a woman ooh

And there are times you really show
What 's in your heart and then I know
No matter what yon do I can't let go
Of any part of your love

I'm just a woman
You are the only man
And I know if you choose
Yon can throw me away
Like some old shoe
But as long as you're there
From the bottom or my heart
I don't care

I'm just a woman ooh
I'm just a woman ooh
I'm just a woman
You are the only man
I'm just a woman
Said I'm just a woman
I'm just a woman
You are the only man
Said I'm just a woman
I'm just a woman just a woman
You are the only man
Just a woman ooh
Said I'm just a woman
I'm just a woman
You are the only man
I'm just a woman
I Said I'm just a woman
And you are the only man
Yeah yeah
I'm just a woman
You are the only man
I'm just a woman
Said I'm just a woman

You're you're the only man

We Danced On The Ceiling

Ronnie Scott - Steve Wolfe

© Window Music, BMI

We danced on the ceiling
We danced on the wall
It gave me the feeling
That I wasn't there at all

We danced on the moonlight
We danced on the stars
Too early the daylight
Came liftin' the mask

Oh I don't wanna let it end
I don't wanna say goodbye
I don't wanna let the only thing
We ever had expire
Won't you take me through the night
To that far and distant light

Won't you take me back to paradise again

You took me to heaven
(Oh) You took me from hell
We danced on the ceiling
Together we fell

Oh I don't wanna let it end
I don't wanna say goodbye
I don't wanna let the only thing
We ever had expire
Won't you take me through the night
To that far and distant light
Won't you take me back to paradise again

We danced on the ceiling
We danced on the wall
It gave me the feeling
That I wasn't there at all
You took me to heaven
(Oh) You took me from hell
We danced on the ceiling
Together we fell
Oh I don't wanna let it end
I don't wanna say goodbye
I don't wanna let the only thing
We ever had expire
Won't you take me through the night
To that far and distant light

'Cause we danced on the ceiling
And we danced on the wall
It gave me the reeling

I don't wanna let it end I don't wanna say goodbye
I don't wanna let the only thing
We ever had expire
We danced on the ceiling
We danced on the wall

Wild Love

Ian Sutherland

© Window Music, BMI

Darlin' every night I keep wonderin'
What I'm not doin' right
The fire's burnin' bright
And you look so oh so good tonight

I've been tryin' to make yon happy
For such a long time
Workin' hard to keep you
So much it's a crime
Give me what I want
'Cause I'm losin' my mind for your

Wild love
All I want is your wild love
Give me a taste of your wild love
While I'm making love to you

Somewhere in your eyes
There's a lovelight that you just can't disguise
Darlin' darlin' darlin' every night
I still wonder what I'm not doing right

I've been tryin' to make yon happy
For such a long time
Workin' hard to keep you
So much it's a crime
Give me what I want
'Cause I'm losin' my mind for your
Wild love
All I want is your wild love
Give me a taste of your wild love
While I'm making love to you
Wild love
All I want is your wild love
Give me a taste of your wild love

The Closer You Get

Chris Rea

© Window Music, BMI

The street lights start to come on
I know that it's time
Stop what you're doin'
Meet those drinkin' friends of mine
First guy that called me on the telephone
Said get on down but I'm stayin' at home

Now I believe in love
I believe that it's true
That I'm defenseless
When I'm lookin' at you
Sleepy eyes on an angel's face
Don't worry, baby
No one's gonna take your place

The closer you get the better you look
Throw me a line
The closer you get the more that I see
We'll sure have a good time
Now I know what you're thinkin'
How do I feel
Well there's no rules in my book
Said the closer you get
Oh the better you took

Keepin' one foot on the showroom
One on the side
I've had some close ones
But I'm doin' all right
There's gold on his fingers
It don't mean a thing
He'll do his best
To hear this sweet lady sing
I've got the time if you got the place
We've got the know how
If you got the space
We've got the power, we've got no shame
Come over, baby
Sure do wanna light your flame, you know

The closer you get the better you look
Throw me a line
The closer you get the more that I see
We'll sure have a good time
Now I know what you're thinkin'
How do I feel
Well there's no rules in my book
Said the closer you get
Oh the better you took

Sometimes When We Touch

Don Hill - Barry Mann

© ATV Songs, BMI

You ask me if I love you I choke on my reply
I'd rather hurt you honestly than mislead you with a lie
And who am I to judge you or what you say or do
When I'm only just beginning to see the real you

And sometimes when we touch the honesty's too much
That I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till I die
Till we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the feelings subside

Romance with all its strategy leaves me battling with my pride
And through the insecurity some tenderness abides
I'm just another writer still trapped within my truth
A hesitant prize fighter still trapped within his youth

And sometimes when we touch the honesty's too much...

Oh at times I want to break you and drive you to your knees
At times I want to Break through and hold you endlessly

And sometimes when we touch the honesty's too much...

Goodbye To The Island

Ronnie Scott - Steve Wolfe

© Window Music, BMI

Goodbye to the island hello to the rain
It's gone like a dream in the night and it won't be back again
Goodbye to the island where our bodies touched
Goodbye to a little bit of heaven and I miss you so much

Why love did you treat me this way
Why love did you treat me this way
Why love did you treat me this way
Why love did you treat me this way

A bed it is an island a world apart
Soft words in the middle of the night
Straight from the heart two heads on a pillow so warm so close
Goodbye to the island where where it mattered the most

Why love did you treat me this way...

Goodbye to the island hello to the rain
It's gone like a dream in the night and it won't be back again

Why love did you treat me this way...

The Wild Side Of Life

William Warren - Arlie Carter

© Unart Music, BMI

Well you wouldn't read my letters if I wrote you
You urged me not to call you on the phone
There's something I've been waiting for to tell you
So I wrote it in the words of this song

You never knew there were honky tonk angels
Or you might have known I'd never make a wife
You walked out on the only one who ever loved you
So I went on back to the wild side of life

Now the climate of all the good life
Oh has led me to the places where the wine
And the liquor flow I tried to be your one and only angel
But I'm not that kind of angel heaven knows no no no no

I cried so hard the day you went and left me
Cause the things you said they cut me like a knife
What you wanted was another kind of angel
And you sent me back to the wild side or life no

Well I'm just some trussed up honky tonk angels...

I'm only a honky tonk angel
And I might have known I'd never make a wife
You walked out on the only one
Who ever loved you
And you left me here
On the wild side of life

A Whiter Shade Of Pale

Keith Reid - Gary Brooke

© Essex Music, ASCAP

We skipped the light fandango turned cartwheels across the floor
I was feeling kind of seasick the crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder as the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink the waiter brought a tray

So it was later as the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly turned a whiter shade of pale

She said there is no reason and the truth is plain to see
As I wandered through my playing cards and could not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins who were leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were open they might just as well have been closed

So it was later as the miller told his tale...
So it was later as the miller told his tale...

Sitting On Ther Edge Of The Ocean

Ronnie Scott - Steve Wolfe

© Window Music, BMI

You asked me to come and so here I am
Has everything gone according to plan
Don't know what to play but something still burns
As soon as we touch again that feeling returns
A little confused but better by far
To be lovers again cause that's what we are it's like

I'm just sitting on the edge of the ocean walking a very fine line
Laying my cards on the table got to be honest this time
I'm just sitting on the edge of the ocean telling it all to the sea
Baby, you know that I love you but I want you to know that I'm me

I knew him before before I met you
He was my first love so what could I do
I've opened my heart now you know it all
You want me to stay you've only to call it's like

I'm just sitting on the edge of the ocean walking a very fine line...

I Believe In Your Sweet Love

Ronnie Scott - Steve Wolfe

© Window Music, BMI

If you want my love you've only got to take it
And if you get my heart do anything but break it

And if you wanna know the truth I think about you only
And whatever I'm doin' you're never out of my mind

Oh I believe in your sweet love
Oh I believe in your sweet love

There's a way you've got something in the mixture
As the night goes on you could become a fixture

Oh I believe in your sweet love
Oh I believe in your sweet love

Oh I I I believe oh I I I believe
If you want my love you've only got to take it
And if you get my heart do anything but break it
Oh I believe in your sweet love
Oh I believe in your sweet love

I believe in your sweet love
I I I believe oh I I I believe
Oh I believe I believe in your sweet lovin'
I I I believe
