I'm skeptical of banana trees. 'Cause they sway too much in the tropic breeze. I'm skeptical that the world is round. . What keeps it up and what keeps me down.
(Kim Carnes). . When I pass you on the street. And I wanna yell come back. Don't tell 'em that you know me. And when I'm standin' next to ya'. In a crowded room.
Sailin', ridin' on the crest of a dream. All we need is a breeze, some help from the wind. Sailin' out of my dreams and into the night. We may never come back again when we go sailin'.
(Kim Carnes/Dave Ellingson). . We learn to hold it in. Hide our hearts. Don't let it show. So scared. We forget to sayh. All the words when. We need them most.
I need a long tall man to kiss and hold me tight (x2). With your book honey, I think you'll do just fine. It don't take no dimes or pearls to make me burn (x2).
Ah, everybody trying to use a piece of the heart. But we strain the thread and it tears apart. So many people trying and they just can't stop. Living for tomorrow, trying to beat the clock.
Always running for some jet. Rumors keep you hard to get. How far will they let you go. Once they know who's in control?. Don't like closing the factory.
(Kim Carnes/Dave Ellingson). . We always said we'd hire a plane. That only flies at night. And we'd stay up forever. Just watching the lights. From deck chairs on a steamer.
You run from surrender and your persona's clean. You stay away from mirrors. 'Cause the eyes just look too mean. You are young and you are ravaging your fate.
(Kim Carnes/Bill Cuomo/M. Paul). . I sit here looking at the stars in the sky. Making their patterns. As breezes blow by. I recognize something. As it comes into view.
So much I had to tell you, I've saved it for a while. But this thing's going nowhere. I can see it in your eyes, even now the worst fool. Says that I'm a fool.
Nothing Makes Me Feel As Good As A Love Song. . (Kim Carnes). . Sit right here beside me. And sing me through the night. And if you sing right through to the morning I won't mind.
Churning and burning it's a love attack. Don't run for cover it will turn you around in your tracks. Pull you right back. . And once it starts it's like a thunder ride.
John and Lucky saw me off. The whistle called the times. Just six days out to the coast. Just six days behind. . But I've seen every state since then.
Let it be soon don't hesitate. Make it now don't wait. Open your heart and let my love come in. I want the moment to start when I can fill your heart with.
Did she tell you it's over?. Did she throw you out in the night?. Here you come to your other lover. Thinkin' that a restless heart will get you high again.
Turn it up Turn it up turn it turn it turn it up. Turn it up Turn it up turn it turn it turn it up. So I can rock the night away, away. I'mma burn it up tonight it's going down.
Look at me now I'm the lucky one. Runnin' everywhere, envy of someone. Thought I'd call you tonight, oh, just for the fun. Only takes a dime, Lord knows I've got the time.
Lights on!. Sparkles in your eyes turn the lights on,. Its clear to see that Ive got your attention.. Youre eyes are screaming,. Baby, give me more, more, more!.
(Kim Carnes). . Look at me now. I'm the lucky one. Runnin' everywhere. Envy of someone. Thought I'd call you tonight. Just for the fun. Only takes a dime.
