Love in a vacuum, love in space,
Love without even a little hint of a trace,
Love in confusion,
And love doesn't show on your face.
Love is a stranger, love is a box,
Love is the key that fits a million locks,
Love is a mystery,
When love is the devil you go.
Put your heart and soul,
Where I can see them shine,
I wish you'd put your heart and soul,
Where I can think they're mine,
I wish you put your heart and soul,
Where I can see them shine.
Love in a distance, love in a walk,
Love in the limit,
If only people could talk,
Love for the moment it takes,
'Til it swings like a hawk.
Love for tomorrow, love for today,
Love for the hour,
It could be coming your way,
Love for a puzzle,
You need a solution to play.
Put your heart and soul,
Where I can see them shine,
I wish you'd put your heart and soul,
Where I can think they're mine,
I wish you put your heart and soul,
Where I can see them shine.

When I was a young boy, mama she said to me
There's only one girl in the world for you, and she probably lives Tahiti
Or maybe she's in the Bahamas, where the Caribbean Sea is blue
Weepin' away in the tropical night, because nobody's told her 'bout you

I'd go the whole wide world
I'd go the whole wide world, just to find her
I'd go the whole wide world
I'd go the whole wide world, to find out where they hide her
Yeah!

Why am I hangin' around in the rain out here
Tryin' to think of a girl?
Why are my eyes fillin' up with these lonely tears
When there's girls all over the world?

Or is she lyin' on a tropical beach somewhere
Underneath the tropical sun?
Hidin' away in the heat wave there
Hopin' that I won't be long

I'd go the whole wide world
I'd go the whole wide world, just to find her
I'd go the whole wide world
I'd go the whole wide world, to find out where they hide her
I'd go the whole wide world
I'd go the whole wide world, just to find her
I'd go the whole wide world
I'd go the whole wide world, to find out where they hide her
Yeah!
I'd go the whole wide world...

The other night I took the long way home
Out past the old schoolyard
It's funny how you keep it all inside
Dreams they do die hard

I closed my eyes and I could see your face
Somewhere back in time
One summer night a million miles ago
Back when you were mine

Say yes, say no, say that I'm grabbing at shadows
But don't carve the words in stone
I know it's late
But can't you see I was only
Taking the long way home

Sometimes its easy to get all wrapped up
In trying to be free
And all those dreams I sailed away to find
Were right in front of me

Say yes, say no, say that I'm grabbing at shadows
But don't carve the words in stone
One of these days
You're gonna see I was only
Taking the long way home

Although the letters stopped many years ago
I'll show you even time could not keep this heart
from letting go

The other night I took the long way home
Out past the old schoolyard
It's funny how you keep it all inside
Dreams they do die hard

Say yes, say no, say that I'm grabbing at shadows
But don't leave me here all alone
One of these days
You're gonna see I was only
Taking the long way home

Say yes, say no
But don't leave me here all alone
One of these days
You're gonna see I was only
Taking the long way home
(repeat)

. . .


No other love stood the test of time
Can you imagine how I'd feel if you were mine?
Once I know it's not make-believe
It's plain to see that you've got something over me

You hold the key to my secret heart
Just turn the lock
And we could be lovers after dark
(repeat)

With other girls it's just been physical
So many times before I never cared at all
With you I realize what love could be
And I could feel that you've got something over me

You hold the key to my secret heart
Just turn the lock
And we could be lovers after dark
(repeat)

(musical bridge)

You hold the key to my secret heart
Just turn the lock
And we could be lovers after dark
(repeat to fade)

I'm gettin' in to your heart
I'm gettin' in to your mind
You'd better learn from the start
You'll never leave me behind

My love's surrounding you
My love will be your shield
Just take me in to your heart
And all will be revealed

Don't be scared to love me darling
I won't chain you down, you know
My love sets you free for flying
Hold me, kiss me, off you go
I'll stay with you
I'm gonna stay with you
I'll stay with you
I'm gonna stick with you

I'm gettin' in to your heart
I'm gettin' in to your mind
You'd better learn from the start
You'll never leave me behind

I was given love like this
It was a gift I pass to you
You'll be happy when you get it
I was when I got it, too
I'll stay with you
I'm gonna stay with you
I'll stay with you
I'm gonna stick with you

I'm gettin' in to your heart
I'm gettin' in to your mind
You'd better learn from the start
You'll never leave me behind

I love you baby, baby
Love you everywhere
Take me with you when you fly

. . .


I'll love you this year, I'll love you next year, and then forever
I'll always need you, I'll never leave you, I'll love you forever
And if you ever change your mind, think again, and give me time
You're my first love, you are my last love, you're my forever

I love this feeling, my heart is beating a mile a minute
No other woman has ever been so deep inside in it
And when the sun shines on our love, that's when I thank the Lord above
You're my first love, you are my last love, you're my beginning

And when the sun shines on our love, that's when I thank the Lord above
You're my first love, you are my last love, you are my everlasting love
You are my first love, you are my last love, you're my forever

I used to see you on the avenue
You were the girl that let me follow you
You used to hang out in the alleyway
You sewed a button on my shirt one day
I asked around until I found your name
Then underneath the arches in the pouring rain
I said - You (yeah, you) I want you
Every step of the way

I know that things are gettin' better
I know it's gonna be OK
So baby don't go - I ain't gonna let ya
I wanna be with you every step of the way
Every step of the way

Do ya wanna, do ya wanna, do ya wanna dance?
Take a chance, baby, take a chance
I'll be with you every of the way
I'll even show you how to strut one day
Ain't got a girl and it's a crying shame
'Cos I can't figure out who's to blame
I want you (yeah, you) I want you
Every step of the way

I know that things are gettin' better
I know things will be OK
So baby don't go - I ain't gonna let ya
I wanna be with you every step of the way
Yeah, every step of the way

I know that things are gettin' better
I know things will be OK
So baby don't go - I ain't gonna let ya
I wanna be with you every step of the way
Every step of the way
(repeat last line to fade)

It used to be such a good thing
Such an easy feeling
I didn't know you were looking
Didn't know you were stealing

I was loving you when we were alone
But you had other ideas of your own
Word gets around
Don't bring me down

We used to have us some good times
Used to laugh together
It took awhile to realize
You were wantin' something better

When we were kissin' I closed my eyes
But you were lookin' at the other guys
I played the clown
Don't bring me down

It used to be such a good thing
Such an easy feelin'
I didn't know you were lookin'
I didn't know you were stealing

I went and messed it up and fell in love
But you sure know how to make it rough
You're still around
Don't bring me down

. . .


Deep in the bayou en route to LA
The merchandise is changing sides
People are hiding and waiting all day
'Til midnight comes around
That's when it's coming down
And the dreams of a boy
And his shortcut to easy street will die

Back in the city, she's biting her nails
Taking it hard - he's doing it for her
She didn't ask and all he would say
It's what he had to do
To make her dreams come true
But a whisper went 'round on the dark side of town
And anything that could go wrong
Is going wrong right now

Midnight when it all comes down
Only the brave and the fools are around
Midnight when it all comes down
Poor little fool, his bravery won't help him now

Touchdown on the water and into the trees
He's come so far and this is the easy part
Just gotta follow the flashlight he sees
And that's where he gets paid
His fortune will be made
But a house in the country
And an acre of green
Will always be a dream
They never even knew his name

Midnight when it all comes down
Only the brave and the fools are around
Midnight when it all comes down
Poor little fool, his bravery won't help him now
(repeat)

. . .


There were tears in her eyes when she gave me the news last night
I tried to disguise all the hurt that I felt inside
She said she'd always like to be my friend
What could I say?
This was the end

She's movin' in with Ricoooo
Everybody's hero
She's movin' in with Rico
And she don't need me no more

We stood by the door and she put her hand in mine
Could've fell through the floor when we said our last goodbyes
I just stood and watched her walk away
Love of my life
Is leaving today

She's movin' in with Ricoooo
Everybody's hero
She's movin' in with Rico
And she don't love me no more

Suddenly she was gone
How sad it feels to be alone
Now there's a stranger in my shoes
Some you win and some you lose

Na na na na, na na na, na na na na na
Na na na na, na na na, na na na na na

She said she'd always like to be my friend
What could I say?
Is this the end?

She's movin' in with Ricoooo
Everybody's hero
She's movin' in with Rico
And she don't need me no more

She's movin' in with Ricoooo
Everybody's hero
She's movin' in with Ricoooo
She's movin' in with Ricoooo
She's movin' in with Ricoooo
Everybody's hero
She's movin' in with Ricoooo
She's movin' in with Ricoooo...

You said you couldn't tell the doormat from my face
You said if I had brains I would pawn them
Could be I've finally gotten up off of my thumbs
Could be that you're the one that was on them

Cause the plants have grown
The dog came home
The bills are all getting paid
Things are much better since you went away
And I've changed my looks
I read new books
I've got friends that mean what they say
Things are much better since you went away

You said without your help I couldn't tie my shoes
You said without a doubt I'd be stranded
Could be that you were right and you had to fly the coop
Could be the eagle finally has landed

Cause the plants have grown
The dog came home
The bills are all getting paid
Things are much better since you went away
And I've changed my looks
I read new books
I've got friends that mean what they say
Things are much better since you went away

When I was younger I was told without another
I'd be incomplete and deflated
My chosen one has chosen to befriend another
And to my surprise -
I'm elated!

Cause the plants have grown
The dog came home
The bills are all getting paid
Things are much better since you went away
And I've changed my looks
I read new books
I've got friends that mean what they say
Things are much better since you went away
(repeat)

. . .


Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two
One of these days I'll be back with you
Counting the ways that I love you
Through and through

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine
Tentatively you put up the signs
Letting me know you are mine

And I'm counting on you
To be here through it all
I'm counting on you
To catch me if I fall
Whatever you do, remember
I'm always counting on you

Flight six, eight, one, gate forty-two
At seven fifteen I'll feel ten feet tall
Knowing you care after all

And I'm counting on you
To be here through it all
I'm counting on you
To catch me if I fall
Whatever you do, remember
I'm always counting on you

Counting on you
To be here through it all
Counting on you
To catch me if I fall
Remember I'm always
Counting on you
