Every Woman In The World Composer(s): Dominic Bugatti; Frank Musker Performer(s): Air Supply
Every night seems dinner and wine Saturday days I was never in love, never had the time In my hustle and hurried world Laughing my self to sleep, waking up lonely I needed someone to hold me, oh
It's such a crazy home town It can drag you down Till you run out of dreams So you party all night to the music and lights But you don't what happiness means I was dancing in the dark with strangers No love around me When suddenly you found me, oh
Girl, you're every woman in the world to me You're my fantasy, you're my reality Girl, you're every woman in the world to me You're everything I need, You're everything to me Oh girl
Everything good, everything fine That's what you are So put your hand in mine and together we'll climb As high as the highest star I'm living the life time in every minute That we're together And I'm staying right here forever, oh

Every Which Way But Loose Composer(s): Steve Dorff; M. Brown; Tommy Garrett Performer(s): Eddie Rabbitt
I've always been the kind of man
who doesn't believe in strings Long term obligations are just unnecessary things But girl you've got me thinkin', while I'm drinking one more beer If I'm headed for a heartache, then why the hell am I still here
I'm testin' my resistance and its wearin' mighty thin I got the feelin' I should leave before the roof caves in My mind tells me to move along but my body begs me stay And now I feel the need to hold you close and love the night away
Chorus:
While you're turnin' me Every which way but loose You turn me every which way but loose Inside the fire's burnin' me In mind you just keep turnin' me Every which way but loose Baby there's no excuse To turn me every which way but loose
When the sun comes up in the mornin' it should find me someplace new But right this minute all I want is to lay here next to you Those memories still keep callin' me from somewhere in my past Better hurry if they want me cause I can feel me fading fast

Every Time You Say Goodbye Composer(s): John Pennell Performer(s): Alison Krauss; Emily Singleton
Look at the sky baby What do you see? Looks like the tears that I cry Fallin' down like rain on the ground Every time you say goodbye
Take a look around now Why don't you feel The way that cold wind stings and bites And your words just are like arrows through my heart Every time you say goodbye
There's a restless feeling knocking at my door today There's a shadow hanging 'round my garden gate I read between the lines of words you can't disguise Love has gone away, and put these tears in my eyes
Look at the sky baby, see how it cries? Ain't it just like my tears Fallin' down like rain on the ground Every time you say goodbye
There's a restless feeling knocking at my door today There's a shadow hanging 'round my garden gate I read between the lines of words you can't disguise Love has gone away, and put these tears in my eyes
There's a restless feeling knocking at my door today There's a shadow hanging 'round my garden gate I read between the lines of words you can't disguise Love has gone away, and put these tears in my eyes

She's got a roof that don't leak When the rain's pouring down She's got a place I can sleep, yall Where I'm save and sound
She's got a lock on her door But she gave me a key She don't walk the floor But she worries about me
Her love has no strings, shackles or chains But I'm holding on for dear life She's like a rolling seven Every time I roll the dice
She's got a big oldsmobile She's got a dog that don't bite She's got a heart I can steal Just like a thief in the night
She's got a slow burning fire She keeps her radio low And when she gets inspired Lord, we let the good times roll
Her love has no strings, shackles or chains But I'm holding on for dear life She's like a rolling seven Every time I roll the dice
Her love has no strings, shackles or chains But I'm holding on for dear life She's like a rolling seven Every time I roll the dice

Every time I roll Every time I roll Every time I roll Every time I roll the dice
Every time I roll Every time I roll Every time I roll Every time I roll the dice
Every time I roll (every time I roll) Every time I roll (every time I roll) Every time I roll Every time I roll the dice

5.06 Am (Every Stranger's Eyes) Composer(s): Roger Waters Performer(s): Roger Waters
[Waitress:] You wanna cup of coffee? [Customers:] Heh, Turn that fucking juke box down You want to turn down that juke box....loud in here [Waitress:] I'm sorry, would you like a cup of coffee? Ok, you take cream and sugar? Sure In truck stops and hamburger joints In Cadillac limousines In the company of has-beens And bent-backs And sleeping forms on pavement steps In libraries and railway stations In books and banks In the pages of history In suicidal cavalry attacks I recognise... Myself in every stranger's eyes And in wheelchairs by monuments Under tube trains and commuter accidents In council care and county courts At Easter fairs and sea-side resorts In drawing rooms and city morgues In award winning photographs Of life rafts on the China seas In transit camps, under arc lamps On unloading ramps In faces blurred by rubber stamps I recognise... Myself in every stranger's eyes And now, from where I stand Upon this hill I plundered from the pool I look around I search the skies I shade my eyes So nearly blind And I see signs of half remembered days I hear bells that chime in strange familiar ways I recognise... The hope you kindle in your eyes It's oh so easy now As we lie here in the dark Nothing interferes, it's obvious How to beat the tears That threaten to snuff out The spark of our love

I'm gonna tell your Mama Tell your Papa too So they'll know exactly what I'm gonna do If you ever say goodbye If you ever even try I'm gonna sit right down and cry over you
Wah-hoo!
I'm gonna tell your Mama Tell your Papa too So they'll know exactly what I'm gonna do If you ever say goodbye If you ever even try I'm gonna sit right down and cry over you I'm gonna sit right down and cry over you I'm gonna sit right down and cry over you
Every Song Is You Composer(s): Steve Dudas; Grakal; Mark Hudson Performer(s): Timothy B. Schmit
Everybody's got a broken heart Played the fool and done their part But fools rush in, baby, so why did we?
Another day, a long lonely night Instead of loving we'd always fight There's a hundred reasons why to set me free
Ever since the day I left you I've had this feeling of emptiness And it won't go away
So I go on down the road One more little town that I don't know I'm running late and I'm running low On cold coffee and the radio That plays me like you do Every song is you
Separation is a funny thing You want to fly but it breaks your wings It left me on the outside looking in
I do believe we're worth fighting for 'Cuz all is fair in love and war I promise not to hurt you like I hurt me
I swear to God I'll make things right I'm heading out, gonna drive all night Now I'm coming home
So I go on down the road One more little town that I don't know I'm running late and I'm running low On cold coffee and the radio That plays me like you do Every song is you
I am falling through the cracks That time slipped on and broke its back Everyone begins to laugh, but I'm laughing with them too 'Cuz they play me like you do
Ever since the day I left you I've had this feeling of emptiness Now I just wanna get home So I go on down the road One more little town that I don't know I'm running late and I'm running low On cold coffee and the radio That plays me like you do Every song is you

Every Road Leads Me Back To You Composer(s): George Mac Farlane; William Dunham; T. Leonard Coleman
There's a road that leads to happiness there's a road that leads to pain I've traveled each and every one, alone and back again thru every dell and every dale
and by way that we knew in rain or shine
the endless time, all lead me back to you
There's the road that leads to after years, there's the road that leads to home the one that runs thru loneliness, which many of us roam but hand in hand together, dear in stormy day or fair to the golden sunset of our lives, on the road that leads us there
Every road seems to lead the way to the island of yesterday and down lovers lane we wandered again while the birds sing their same sweet lay and again it is you I woo Every flower remembers you too At the crossroads of time I'll still wish you were mine every road leas me back to you
