DOWN EASY
Across a crowded barroom
Cupid’s arrow finds its mark
Our bodies lock together
Dirty dancing in the dark
Playing footsie at my table
Another round of doubles
We’d better pull the plug right now
‘Cause it can only lead to trouble
Baby can’t you see
Someone’s waiting up for me
And tonight I’ll be going home alone
So I’ve gotta let you down
Down easy
I’m gonna let you down
Down slow
I’d really love to love ya
But I already have another
If that don’t work I’ll be sure to let you know
Imaginations running wild
God it’s so much fun to flirt
We gotta put an end to this
Or we’re all gonna hurt
Your body’s built for lovin’
We were made to bump and grind
I gotta find the exit now
Before I change my mind
Baby can’t you see
Someone’s waiting up for me
And tonight I’ll be going home alone
So I’ve gotta let you down
Down easy
I’m gonna let you down
Down slow
I’d really love to love ya
But I already have another
If that don’t work I’ll be sure to let you know
If you had come my way on any other day
Maybe we would have a chance
But my heart’s already taken
And I know your heart is breakin’
But I ain’t makin’ time for new romance
Just once more last dance
Then I gotta let you down
Down easy
I’m gonna let you down
Down slow
I’d really love to love ya
But I already have another
If that don’t work I’ll be sure to let you know
I’d really love to love ya
But I already have another
If that don’t work I’ll be sure to let you know
If that don’t work I’ll be sure to let you know
If that don’t work I’ll be sure to let you know

NEXT TIME
Another lover gone
It’s becoming a routine
Fireworks
Then I’m a jerk
Nothing in between
But I know, yes I know this time what I did wrong
Good intentions
Lack of attention
Knew it all along
Next time I’m gonna walk her in the moonlight
Next time I’m gonna tell her how I feel
Next time I’m gonna rock her until midnight
And she’ll never have to wonder if my love is real
I learned my lesson and it’s better late than never
And the next time I fall in love it will be forever
Starting again
Back at square one (it’s no fun)
Never any doubt
Always thinking ‘bout
The foolish things I’ve done
But I know, yes I know in my heart what’s true
Past is past
Gotta make love last
If it’s the last thing that I do
Next time I’m gonna walk her in the moonlight
Next time I’m gonna tell her how I feel
Next time I’m gonna rock her until midnight
And she’ll never have to wonder if my love is real
I learned my lesson and it’s better late than never
And the next time I fall in love it will be forever
Don’t you know by now?
Don’t you know it yet?
Time won’t wait for you
You gotta start givin’ ‘stead of livin’ in regret
Ohhhh . . .
Next time I’m gonna walk her in the moonlight
Next time I’m gonna tell her how I feel
Next time I’m gonna rock her until midnight
And she’ll never have to wonder if my love is real
I learned my lesson and it’s better late than never
And the next time I fall in love it will be forever
Yeah the next time I fall in love it will be . . . . . forever
No more next times
No more next times
No more next times

EASY TO FALL
So you’ve broken up
But girl you know this ain’t the end
Through the bad times and the sad times that are coming
You can always count on me as your friend
It’s so easy to fall in love
So easy to fall in love
It’s so easy to fall in love
But so hard to get over it
Yeah!
Now you’re down and out
With no idea what you can do
When you don’t know if you’re coming or you’re going
I will always be right there beside you
It’s so easy to fall in love
So easy to fall in love
It’s so easy to fall in love
But so hard to get over it
Yeah!
It’s only natural (We love falling in love)
Don’t think it happens only to you (We love falling)
It’s only natural (We love falling in love)
Falling in love is what hearts do – don’t be blue!
It’s so easy to fall in love
So easy to fall in love
It’s so easy to fall in love
But so hard to get over it
Yeah!
No you’re not alone
‘Cause girl, you know, I’ve been there too
But the heart is made for laughing and loving
Won’t be long till you find somebody new
It’s so easy to fall in love
So easy to fall in love
It’s so easy to fall in love
But so hard to get over it
And we’ll never get over it
‘Cause we don’t want to get over it
Yeah!

It's Been a Long Time

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME
It’s been a long time since I’m walking by your window
It’s been a long time since I’m knocking on your door
Many days and sleepless nights have passed
The memories fade both too slow and fast
Since I found out you don’t want me anymore
It’s been a long time since I held you close in my arms
It’s been a long time since you told me that you cared
And I confess that not a day goes by
When I awake alone and wonder why
And I reach out to touch you but there’s no one there
Never knew love before, never met no one like you
And I’m always gonna wonder what might have been
World spinning circles now, but there’s one thing I know
It’s gonna be a long, long time till I love that way again
It’s been a long time since you whispered soft in my ear
It’s been a long time since I gazed into your eyes
And I remember how it used to be
I told you I loved you, you said you loved me
But then the next day found us saying our goodbyes
Never knew love before, never met no one like you
And I’m always gonna wonder what might have been
World spinning circles now, but there’s one thing I know
It’s gonna be a long, long time
It’s gonna be a long, long time
It’s gonna be a long, long time till I love that way again
Till I love that way again
Till I love that way again

TOWARD THE LIGHT
Tonight I am alone
And memories go floating through my mind
I’m far away from home
And I don’t know what I am trying to find
So much has slipped away from my hands
I’m trying to remember who I am
By reading the story on the sands
Of my life
I wonder where you are
What happened to the friendship that we had?
We’ve both traveled so far
Why did we have to go on separate paths?
Oh, and that list is so long
I don’t appreciate things till they’re gone
But then it’s just too late so I move on
With my life
Changes upon changes, will the world forever spin?
Don’t know where I’m going, and I’m not sure where I’ve been
But it’s all right
As long as I keep moving toward the light
And what have I become?
Is this where I was hoping I would be?
I’ve lived life on the run
Always a step ahead of what you see
So many changes that I go through
I can’t keep track of me much less you
But there is nothing else that I can do
In my life
Changes upon changes, will the world forever spin?
Don’t know where I’m going, and I’m not sure where I’ve been
But it’s all right
As long as I keep moving toward the light
What does the future hold?
Will I ever learn how to play the game?
With each day I grow old
But deep inside I seem to stay the same
What secrets wait for me around the bend?
Will today’s stranger one day be my friend?
Well I won’t know until I reach the end
Of my life
Changes upon changes, will the world forever spin?
Don’t know where I’m going, and I’m not sure where I’ve been
But it’s all right
As long as I keep moving toward the light
As long as I keep moving toward the light
As long as I keep moving toward the light
