All The Things She Said Composer(s): Charlie Burchill - Mel Gaynor - John Giblin - Jim Kerr - Mick MacNeil Performer(s): Simple Minds
Don't you look back on a big lost world Crying out tomorrow Don't you look down like the heroes say Come tell me all about it Take me to the streets where the bonfires burn Take me in your arms and I'll fade away When I hear you say what you got to say Anywhere you go, you know I'll still be waiting All the things she said, she said Little darling close your eyes, there'll be no compromising Of all the things she said, she said
Throw me to the street where the heartbeats beating "beating all around me" To the peaceful revolution And the perfect wave, surround me Tell me 'bout the ocean moving in slow motion I see it glitter in the sun Then it's freezing in the moonlight Never look back, never look back, never look away
If freedom comes and goes, you know I'll still be waiting All the things she said, she said You've fought the fight so long, no surrender to temptation Of all the things she said, she said
Stars will fall out for you Luck will surrender I'm calling out to you
Oh to be near you in the first morning light I'd be with you, I dream about you If I could leave here, I would leave here tonight I'd be with you, I'd stay with you tonight Tonight
Anywhere you go, you know I'll still be waiting Of all the things she said, she said When I look into your eyes, I see a new day rising Oh all the things she said, she said Through the eyes of love, and to never know what hate is Of all the things she said, she said She said, this is our time, she said, this is our place This is the space my heart wants to be Little darling close your eyes, there'll be no compromising All the things she said, she said
Wild West Hero Composer(s): Jeff Lynne Performer(s): Electric Light Orchestra
Wish I was, yeah, a wild west hero
Sometimes I look up high and then I think there might just be a better life Away from all we know, that's where I wanna go out on the wild side and I wish I was, o-oo-o-oh, a wild west hero
Ride the range all the day till the first fading light be with my western girl round the fire, oh, so bright I'd be the Indians friend, let them live to be free ridin' into the sunset, I wish I could be
I'd ride the desert sands and through the prairie lands try'n to do what's right The folks would come to me, they'd say, we need you here I'd stay there for the night Oh, I wish I was, o-oo-o-oh, a wild west hero
Ride the range all the day till the first fading light be with my western girl round the fire, oh, so bright I'd be the Indians friend, let them live to be free ridin' into the sunset, I wish I could be
0h, I wish I was, o-oo-o-oh, a wild west hero Oh, I wish I was, o-oo-o-oh, a wild west hero Oh, I wish I was, o-oo-o-oh, a wild west hero Oh, I wish I was, o-oo-o-oh, a wild west hero Wish I was, o-o-oo-o-o-o-oo, a wild west hero
You paint a rainbow of emotion You are the rhythm...life is the dance... yeah You are the queen of many faces How you can move me with just one glance I dont stand a chance
All the things I love about you Keeps amazing me now All the things I love about you
Youre a garden of many hidden secrets Leaving clues to the mysteries you will reveal You are the eyes of intuition You see through illusion... you know whats real Just something you feel
All of the things I love about you Ten thousand dreams you make come true Devil and angel, lover melted into one...
All the things I love about you Keeps amazing me now All the things I love about you
My while world revolves around you Changing colors with the moon... Keep amazing me I never get enough
You twist the truth still yourre sincere To get your way youll shed a tear Dont need a reason when youre beautiful...
All of the things I love about you Then thousand dreams you make come true Devil and angel, lover melted into one... My whole world revolves around you Changing colors with the moon.

All The Roadrunning Composer(s): Mark Knopfler Performer(s): Dire Straits; Emmylou Harris
A million miles our vagabond heels clocked up beneath the clouds Theyre counting down to show time When we do it for real with the crowds Air miles are owing but they dont come for free And they dont give you any for pain
But if its all for nothing all the road running its been in vain
the rimshots come down like cannon fire and thunder off the wall theres a man in every corner and each one is giving his all
this is my time this is my drum so youll never hear me complain
And if its all for nothing all the road running its been in vain
All the road running all the road running
Well if youre inclined to go up on the wall it can only be fast and high and those who dont like the danger soon find something different to try When theres only a ringin in your ears and an echo down memory lane
But if its all for nothing all the road running its been in vain
All the road running, all the road running All the road running, all the road running
The shows packing up I sit and I watch the convoy leaving town Theres no pretending Im not a fool, for riding around and around like the pictures you keep of your old, old dad you showed me one time on the plane
But if its all for nothing all the road running Its been in vain
A million miles of vagabond sky clocked up above the clouds Im still your man for roaming as long as there's roamin' allowed
therell be a rider and therell be a wall as long as the dream remains
And if its all for nothing all the road running its been in vain
All the road running, all the road running All the road running, all the road running All the road running, all the road running All the road running, all the road running
Had one lover all my life, he left me high and dry And after I cried all my tears, I learned how to get by Well there's been old friends to ease my pain, Jack Daniels to name a few But I'd be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you
I've been out with Johnny Ridge, George Dickle never failed I've taken Southern Comfort just to chase that Coopers Ale And on those cold nights old Granddad would help me make it through But I'd be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you
Now I have seen some losers, that would make a statue cry But boy if you had some feathers I'd swear that you could fly Yes, I came in here alone and yes, I've had a few But I'd be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you
Now don't get the impression that I care about what you do But when it gets close to thanksgiving I'd hide if I was you Yes, I came in here alone and yes, I've had a few But I'd be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you
All The Pretty Little Ponies Composer(s): Kenny Loggins - David Pack Performer(s): Kenny Loggins
Hush a bye Don't you cry Go to sleep my little baby When you wake You shall have All the pretty little ponies
In your bed Momma said Baby's riding off to dreamland One by one They've begun Dance and prance for little baby Blacks and bays, dapples and greys Running in the night When you wake You shall have All the pretty little ponies
Can you see the little ponies Dance before your eyes All the pretty little ponies Will be there when you arise
All The Nasties Composer(s): Elton John - Bernie Taupin Performer(s): Elton John
If it came to pass that they should ask What could I tell them Would they criticize behind my back Maybe I should let them Oh if only then and only then They would understand They'd turn a full-blooded city boy Into a full-blooded city man
If they could face it I could take it in their eyes Oh I know I'd make it Their tiny minds And sacred cows just fake it If only then and only then They would understand They'd turn a full-blooded city boy Into a full-blooded city man
But I know the way they want me In the way they publicize If they could turn their focus off To the image in their eyes Maybe it would help them, help them understand Maybe it would help them, help them understand Maybe it would help them, help them understand That a full-blooded city boy Is now a full-blooded city man
Wild Tales Composer(s): Graham Nash Performer(s): Crosby, Stills & Nash
You came over here with wild tales from the East about the floods that are rushing 'round your door about your old lady who up and walked away from your feast So you flew your bike over Highway 1 you were lucky to land on your feet and you started crying 'cause you bent the key but it was your lady that landed underneath And it is alright take it as it comes you will find a way to get there So tell me your company's being reviewed by the people that sit on the stand and you tell me your factory's been renewed with computers instead of hands So you filmed Old faithful in super-8 and you monitored all of her calls 'cause you caught the milkman with double-cream he was delivering down your halls But it's all right take it as it comes you will find a way to get there
All The Man That I Need Composer(s): Dean Pitchford - Michael Gore First release by: Linda Clifford - 1982 Covered by multiple other artists
I used to cry myself to sleep at night But that was all Before he came I thought love had to hurt to turn out right But now he's here It's not the same It's not the same
He fills me up He gives me love More love than I've ever seen He's all I've got He's all I've got in this world But he's all the man that I need
And in the morning when I kiss his eyes He takes me down And rocks me slow And in the evening when the moon is high He holds me close And won't let go He won't let go
He fills me up He gives me love More love than I've ever seen He's all I've got He's all I've got in this world But he's all the man that I need
All The Love In The World Composer(s): Barry Gibb Performer(s): Dionne Warwick
In your eyes I see only one - find me the place for us That's where I belong There we rise - your glory and mine Your pain is over now I make you shine - still believing All the love in the world won't take me away from you
My love is stronger I am what you make me All the love in the world won't take you away from me
In all my wonder I forever lay down here with you I find when love slips away reach out for all you can Before it's too late there you fly returnin' to me Out of your darkest nights I stand alone - still believing All the love in the world won't take me away from you
My love is stronger I forever lay down here with you My love is true all your darkest nights - I stand alone - still believing All the love in the world won't take me away from you
My love is stronger I forever lay down here with you All the love in the world won't take me away from you
I walked in There sat Slim Cleaning up his memory With some sapphire gin Mr. Paine grabbed my arm Pulled me aside And said, kid are you ready for the wild ride
I looked up There she stood I said, if you didn't look so great I'd say you look good Ah, she took her hand Ran it up my thigh And said, cowboy you ready for the wild ride
Come on now junior take the wild ride See can you make it on the wild ride Don't try no shakin' on the wild ride 'Cause things start breakin' on the wild ride
Layin' on the highway I saw my mind In tiny little pieces Thrown from side to side My heart was shattered Along with my pride Guess you can't keep 'em on the wild ride
Come on now junior take the wild ride See can you make it on the wild ride Don't try no shakin' on the wild ride 'Cause things start breakin' on the wild ride
I was crawlin' 'cross the floor I was tryin' to leave When I felt something tuggin' what was Left of my sleeve I heard a little voice with a Gold-plated vibe Say, I bought a ticket for the wild ride
Come on now junior take the wild ride See can you make it on the wild ride Don't try no shakin' on the wild ride We might just break it on the wild ride
Come on now junior take the wild ride See can you make it on the wild ride Don't try no shakin' on the wild ride We might just break it on the wild ride
Come on, Come Take me on a wild ride See can you make me on the wild ride Come on and shake me on the wild ride You might just break me on the wild ride
All The Love I Have Inside Composer(s): Chris de Burgh Performer(s): Chris de Burgh
When I wake up in the morning she is there With her sleepy smile and a long night of windy hair And when I hold her close beside me Well it feels so good That I'd like to stay here all day long If there's a way that I could
And when we go downstairs and start off onto the day Just one more cup of coffee, and I'm on my way We may not have perfection But we're halfway there And I know it's sentimental But I just wanted to say
That all the love I have inside me is for you All the love I have inside me is for you All the love I have inside me is for you
And when I've had a heavy day and I'm going home She gives me time if she sees I want to be alone Ah but when the evening's over And we go to bed Here comes the same old feeling It's like a song in my head
Well all the love I have inside me is for you All the love I have inside me is for you All the love I have inside me is for you Here's my love song to you, you...
Change your life wild one Change your life Make it strong Change your life wild one Sing your own song
Now Now that the dark has come And the virgin green was made unclean By the foolish one Now Everyone has to pay And the more that we resist the more the blindness stays Yeah the more that we resist the more the blindness stays

All The Gold In California Composer(s): Larry Gatlin Performer(s): Larry Gatlin & The Gatlin Brothers Band
All the gold in California Is in a bank in the middle of Beverly Hills In somebody elses name So if you're dreaming about California It dont matter at all where you've played before California's a brand new game
Trying to be a hero, winding up a zero Can scar a man forever right down to your soul Living on the spotlight can kill a man outright 'Cause everything that glitters is not gold
All the gold in California Is in a bank in the middle of Beverly Hills In somebody elses name So if you're dreaming about California It dont matter at all where you've played before California's a brand new game
Wild Night Composer(s): Van Morrison Performer(s): Van Morrison; and various other artists
As you brush your shoes, you stand before your mirror And you comb your hair, grab your coat and hat
And you walk the streets trying to remember, ee-yea All those wild nights breeze through your mind
And every thing looks so complete When you're walking down on the streets And the wind, it catches your feet Sets you flying, crying
Ooh ooh-ooh wee, wild night, is calling Ooh ooh-ooh wee, wild night, is calling
All the girls walk by, dressed up for each other And the boys, do the boogie-woogie On the corner of the stree-ee-eet
And the people passing by, just stare with wild wonder, yea And inside the juke box roars just like thunder
And every thing looks so complete When you're walking down on the streets And the wind, it catches your feet Sets you flying, crying
Wi-i-i-ild night, is calling The wi-i-ild night a-is calling C'mon out and dance, c'mon out and dance C'mon out and make romance, c'mon out and dance C'mon out and dance, c'mon out and make romance
