Here we are, we're perfect strangers
After all this time there's no more you and I
But don't look for blame
We've come so far to different places
And now to try to live a lie would be a crime
It's better this way

And we may not have tommorow
But there's always yesterday

After the love has gone
Only fools carry on
We've been hurting for so long
And we both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone
Then we just don't belong
We both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone

It's clear this far nothing to say now
We sang alone and tried so hard to play the game
It all ends the same
Just words no more fill these spaces
When love is gone it's only wrong to try again
I know it's a shame

That we may not have tommorow
But there's always yesterday

After the love has gone
Only fools carry on
We've been hurting for so long
And we both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone
Then we just don't belong
We both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone

Here we are, we're perfect strangers
Now to try to live a lie would be a crime
It's better this way

And we may not have tommorow
But there's always yesterday

After the love has gone
Only fools carry on
We've been hurting for so long
And we both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone
Then we just don't belong
We both know that it's wrong
After the love has gone..

If only you read my mind
You'd see I was hurt inside
A thousand times I've told myself it's over (it's over)
But the story has just begun
And darling whats done is done
It's time to change and leave the past behind
Why should we know all the answers
Or how the story ends (so baby)
Let's take a chance on a happy ending
(Let's) turn the page and stop pretending
The past can stop a heart from mending
It's time to let go 'cos baby you know 
Some things are better best forgotten
And baby we can't pretend 
In time the scars will mend
Please believe me theres a chance , let's take it (let's take it)
And maybe at last we'll find
That love should be true not blind
You can't decieve a heart that's open wide
(And) even now it's not to late
To change the story's end (so baby)
Let's take a chance on a happy ending
(Let's) turn the page and stop pretending
The past can stop a heart from mending
It's time to let go 'cos baby you know 
Some things are better best forgotten
The story has just begun 
Darlin' what's done is done
It's time to leave the past behind

Better the devil you know
Better the devil you know
Oh

Better the devil you know
Better the devil you know
Oh, oh

Say you won't need me no more
I'll take you back again
No more excuses, no no
Cos I've heard them all before
A hundred times or more

I'll forgive and forget
If you say you'll never go (woah)
Cos it's true what they say
It's better the devil you know
Woah

Our love wasn't perfect, I know
I think I know the score
If you say you love me, oh boy
I can't ask for more
I'll come if you should call (woah)

I'll forgive and forget
If you say you'll never go 
Cos it's true what they say
It's better the devil you know
Woah

I'll be here every day
Waiting for your love to show (woah)
Yes it's true what they say
It's better the devil you know
Woah
Woah
Woah
Oh, woah

Say you won't leave me no more
I'll take you back again
No more excuses (no, no)
Cos I've heard them all before
A hundred times or more


I'll forgive and forget
If you say you'll never go (woah)
Cos it's true what they say
It's better the devil you know

I'll be here every day
Waiting for your love to show (woah)
Yes it's true what they say
It's better the devil you know

I'll forgive and forget
If you say you'll never go (woah)
Cos it's true what they say
It's better the devil you know

Love's got a hold of my heart

I'm calling out
Won't somebody out there hear my s.o.s.
Throw me a lifeline please
An' save me

There's no doubt
Baby you took me prisoner I confess
When you crossed my defenses 
And captured my heart

Now it's too late to put up a fight
I thought I was strong but as hard as I try
Can't break away
Darlin' there's no way out
Nothing can help me now
Love's got a hold of my heart

Love's got a hold of my heart

There's no escape
Now I'm like a damsel in distress
Trapped in a fairytale forever

An' no mistake
It's tragic but I'll have to face the truth I guess
Live evermore resigned to my fate

Now it's too late to put up a fight
I thought I was strong but as hard as I try
Can't break away
Darlin' there's no way out
Nothing can help me now
Love's got a hold of my heart

Yeah, love's
Love's got a hold of my heart

Hold on my heart
Hold on my heart
Love's got a hold on my
It's got a hold on my heart
Heart

Oh woah
Yeah, woah, oh

Now it's too late to put up a fight
I thought I was strong but as hard as I try
Can't break away
Darlin' there's no way out
Nothing can help me now
Love's got a hold of my heart

Can't break away
Darlin' there's no way out
Nothing can help me now
Love's got a hold of my heart

Ooo, love's got a hold of my heart

Here I am just longing for you once again
If your arms would only let me in
You'd see the mess I'm in
I have dreamed your heart will come and rescue me
Oh baby set me free
Only your love can win

You are only a heartbeat away
Baby and my love one day will find you it will remind you
When it comes your way oh when it comes your way

Here I am my heart in the palm of your hand
Your every wish is my command
Darling understand
If I live a lie then all my dreams are doomed to die
Oh baby just let me try
To have my heart's desire

You are only a heartbeat away
Baby and my love one day will find you it will remind you
When it comes your way oh when it comes your way

But my feelings are in vain
Just like feelings they won't go away
My love remains in my heart we'll always stay

You are only a heartbeat away
Baby and my love one day will find you it will remind you
When it comes your way oh when it comes your way

You are always in my heart to stay baby
Love comes once in a lifetime
I think it's high time
Our hearts beat as one
Our hearts beat as one

There was something in your voice
That was telling me don't be too sure
Arousing my suspicions
I have never felt before

I thought we had it made
I thought you'd never go away

But now you're suddenly like a stranger
And you're leaving our love behind
Of all the things I was planning for
This was the last thing on my mind (mind)

Ah, ah

When I looked into your eyes
There was something you weren't telling me
But in my confusion 
I just couldn't see

If there was any doubt 
I thought that we would work it out

But now you're suddenly like a stranger
And you're leaving our love behind
Of all the things I was planning for
This was the last thing on my mind

There was something in your voice
That was telling me don't be too sure
Arousing my suspicions
I have never felt before

I thought we had it made
I thought you'd never go away

But now you're suddenly like a stranger
And you're leaving our love behind
Of all the things I was planning for
This was the last thing on my mind (mind)

Ah, ah
Ah, ah

But now you're suddenly like a stranger
And you're leaving our love behind
Of all the things I was planning for
This was the last thing on my mind

You can make the sun turn purple
You can make the sea turn turtle
But you know you can never make me love you more
You can turn wine into water
Turn sadness into laughter
But you know you can never make me love you more

Let the sky fall down
Let the leaves turn brown
Still you know you can never make me love you more
Let the redwoods die
Let the wells run dry
Still you know you can never make me love you more

You can make dew into diamonds
Or pacify the lions
But you know you can never make me love you more
You can make me dance to order
Myself hung torn and quartered
But you know you can never make me love you more

Let the new day hide
Leave the scars inside
Still you know you can never make me love you more
Let the rain pour down
Let the valleys drown
Still you know you can never make me
Hey you know you can never make me love you more

We can make the sun turn purple
We can make the sea turn turtle
But you know you can never make me love you more
We can turn wine into water
Turn sadness into laughter
But you know you can never make me love you more

Let the sky fall down
Let the leaves turn brown
Still you know you can never make me love you more
Let the redwoods die
Let the wells run dry
Still you know you can never make me
Hey you know you can never make me
Yeah you know you can never make me love you more

When I close my eyes
And you're not there
I feel this emptiness inside
Do you care

If you have to go
I'll understand
But the pain's so hard to take
When we're apart

You'll never see me cry
It's locked away
But there's this feeling deep within me
Wants to stay

And if you were here
Would things be right
I need to find my way alone
To win this fight

Stay with me tonight (Stay with me tonight)
One more time could make it right (Stay with me tonight)
One more chance to hold you tight (Stay with me tonight)
Won't you stay with me tonight 

And there's just no point
In looking back
And finding fault in everything 
We ever had

And the promises
We made with tears
Will always be with me in times
When you're not here

Stay with me tonight (Stay with me tonight)
One more time could make it right (Stay with me tonight)
One more chance to hold you tight (Stay with me tonight)
Won't you stay with me, babe
Stay with me tonight

If I hold you close
No need to fight
I know nothing I could say
Would make it right

The chance has gone
Slipped away
Before you leave there's just one thing
I've got to say

Stay with me tonight (Stay with me tonight)
One more time could make it right (Stay with me tonight)
One more chance to hold you tight (Stay with me tonight)
Won't you stay with me babe
For the rest of my life

Stay with me tonight (Stay with me tonight)
One more time could make it right (Stay with me tonight)
One more chance to hold you tight (Stay with me tonight)
Won't you stay with me tonight

 I wanted your love , but look what its done to me
All my dreams have come to nothing
Who would have believed
All the laughter that we shared would be a memory
I cannot count the tears you've cost me
If I could have seen
And do you ever think of me
And how we used to be?
Oh , I know you're somewhere else right now
And loving someone else no doubt
Well I'm one for sorrow
Ain't it too too bad
Are you breaking someone else's heart
'cos you're taking my love where you are
Well I'm one for sorrow
Ain't it too bad about us
I wanted your love , but I got uncertainty
I tried so hard to understand you
All the good it did me
Now the places that we knew remind of how we were
Everything is just the same
But all I feel is hurt
And do you ever think of me
And how we used to be?

Say you'll be mine

Baby, I was hypnotized
When I looked into your eyes
Saw the love I've been waitin' for

Couldn't help but fantasize
'Bout a world where you and I 
Stay together forever more

Don't hesitate
Cos I can't control my feelings
Just can't wait
Now I know where this is leadin'

Baby, please
This heart's on the line
Don't waste this precious time
Say you'll be mine
It's not hard to do
Just tell me you feel it too
Baby it's time
Say you'll be mine (Say you'll be mine)

Took a spark to start the fire
Fan the flame of my desire
Turn the light on my destiny

An' it took me by surprise
All the love I felt inside
Now I know it was meant to be

An' step by step
I can feel how close we're getting
Can't stop yet
Cos I know where this is headin'

Baby, please
This heart's on the line
Don't waste this precious time
Say you'll be mine
It's not hard to do
Just tell me you feel it too
Baby it's time
Say you'll be mine (Say you'll be mine)

Baby it's time
Say you'll be mine (Say you'll be mine)

Say it
All you gotta do is say it
Just say it
You're the one I've been waitin' for
Say it
All you gotta do is say it
Just say it
Oh

Baby, please
This heart's on the line
Don't waste this precious time
Say you'll be mine
It's not hard to do (not hard to do)
Just tell me you feel it too (feel it too)
Baby it's time (Come on)
Say you'll be mine (Say you'll be mine)

Say you'll be mine (Say you'll be mine)(you'll be mine)
Say you'll be mine (Say you'll be mine)(you'll be mine)
Say you'll be mine (Say you'll be mine) (mine)
Baby it's time
Say you'll be mine (Say you'll be mine)
Say you'll be mine

Baby, please (baby please)
This heart's on the line
Don't waste this precious time (precious time)
Say you'll be mine (be mine)
It's not hard to do (not hard to do)
Just tell me you feel it too (feel it too)
Baby it's time (it's time)
Say you'll be mine (Say you'll be mine)

Here I lie
In a lost and lonely part of town
Hold in time
In a world of tears  I slowly drown
Goin' home
I just can't make it all alone
I reall y should be holding you, holding you
Loving you, loving you

Tragedy
When the feelin's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one to love you
You're goin' nowhere

Tragedy
When you lose control and you got no soul
it's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one beside you
You're goin' nowhere

Night and day
There's a burning down inside of me
Burning love with a yearning that won't let me be
Down I go
And I just can't take it all alone
I really should be holding you, holding you
Loving you, loving you

Tragedy
When the feelin's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one to love you
You're goin' nowhere

Tragedy
When you lose control and you got no soul
it's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one beside you
You're goin' nowhere

Tragedy
When the feelin's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one to love you
You're goin' nowhere

Tragedy
When you lose control and you got no soul
it's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
