Don't blame it on my youth Would have done anything for you You said I was too young, well I'm 23 now And I feel exactly the same as I did back then when I was 18, only 18 I'd walk to the other end of the earth for you I'd cry an ocean just for you I'd try until I had no strength I'd do anything just for you If only you loved me the way I loved you If you wanted me the way I wanted you Yeah I wanted you, really wanted you, and you alone You said I'd have to stray It was you though, not me You said I'd have to play I was only 18 But now you see it wasn't me cos I loved you Couldn't you love me too? I'd walk to the other end of the earth for you I'd cry an ocean just for you I'd try until I had no strength I'd do anything just for you I'd walk to the other end of the earth for you I'd cry an ocean just for you I'd try until I had no strength I'd do anything just for you INSTRUMENTAL I'd walk to the other end of the earth for you I'd cry an ocean just for you I'd try until I had no strength I'd do anything just for you

Why couldn't you? INSTRUMENTAL I'd walk to the other end of the earth for you I'd cry an ocean just for you I'd try until I had no strength It was all gone just for you And only you Only you

In times of hardship you were always there comforting soldifying your presence was always felt In times when I cried myself to sleep it was always your shoulder I cried on Where would I be if it weren't for you? How would I have survived without you? For you've been my rock, my crack, and hope you've held me up when I began to fall In times of trouble my feet never touched the ground because you carried me in your arms In times of trouble I never felt any kind of pain because you were my remedy my morphine In times of trouble you've always been there for me And what could substitute for your love? I doubt there is any drug strong enough My base, my lover and bestfriend Your whole life took a backseat for mine In times of trouble my feet never touched the ground cos you carried me in your arms In times of trouble I never felt any kind of pain for you were my remedy my morphine In times of trouble you've always been there for me Been there for me Been there for me Been there for me In times of trouble you've always been there for me

Sitting at the bar getting mighty drunk You can try your luck but you won't get far I'm not the type of could get to know but you can take me home tonight Commitment is a dirty word to me I'm not the type who stays too long Commitment is a dirty word to me A one night stand is more than plenty When you wake in the morning I'm gone I'll leave you a not if you are lucky All that is will say is please don't call By the time you have read this I have moved on Commitment is a dirty word to me I'm not the type who stays too long Commitment is a dirty word to me A one night stand is more than plenty A woman who says she loved you is a liar A woman is love is a woman without a mind Love come easy and easy it go and that is why Commitment is a dirty word to me I'm not the type who stays too long Commitment is a dirty word to me A one night stand is more than plenty They always claim you broke their heart but how much of that can you believe I want to be alone and sit in silence I'm just not in the mood for company Commitment is a dirty word to me I'm not the type who stays too long Commitment is a dirty word to me A one night stand is more than plenty

All the groovy people standing in crowd can't believe how she swings Such a crazy cat like I've never seen She is a real wild thing *CHORUS And She'll be dancing on the tables tonight She'll be dancing on the tables tonight She'll be dancing on the tables tonight Dancing on the tables She'll be dancing on the tables tonight Mona Lisa don't approve her smile is slowly gone All the people start to drop like flies but this lady carries on *CHORUS Cheer up Charlie it ain't that bad there is a party going on come on down to see her, rock n' roll *CHORUS INSTRUMENTAL *CHORUS

Did I have to have my heart broken before I began to live my life? I had to feel all that hurt before I finally felt alive All the pretentious people trying to knock us down they are simply jealous we must rise above All the pretentious fools who try to bring us down it's a life that they don't understand I have learned all the hard lessons I need inorder to survive so now I intend to get out there and enjoy, enjoy my life All the pretentious people trying to knock us down they are simply jealous we must rise above All the pretentious fools who try to bring us down it's a life that they don't understand I'd rather be hated for who I am then loved for what I am not It's the simple things in this life that we take forgranted day by day All the pretentious people trying to knock us down they are simply jealous we must rise above All the pretentious fools who try to bring us down it's a life that they don't understand it's a life that they don't understand

Your true compassion burned a whole in my pride As you carried your burden you took it in your stride Well and truely I wish I had your grace You're such a beauty that world is determined to waste Refined beauty only to see Refined beauty never belong to me I lost my passion and all my zest for life until I met you Now suddenly I feel alive Smooth the sharp edges and filled me up with drive Just by passing by you really touched my life Refined beauty only to see Refined beauty never belong to me If never in my lifetime do our paths cross by At least I'll have the image of beauty in my mind Beauty so haunting critical but kind It's of the form you see only once in your lifetime Refined beauty only to see Refined beauty never belong to me Refined beauty only to see Refined beauty never, never belong to me

Sometimes I wonder where I get this evil streak from Oh how I hate to be beaten at anything And I Know that I love you but I just want to hurt you Yeah I know that I love you but I just want to hurt you Got you trained so you are obedient God help you if you should let me down And I Know that I love you but I just want to hurt you Yeah I know that I love you but I just want to hurt you Climb the walls to view the limits See all barriers in sight Then break them all right down And I Know that I love you but I just want to hurt you Yeah I know that I love you but I just want to hurt you Baby I know I sometimes go too far I see that look of fear on your face And I Know that I love you but I just want to hurt you Yeah I know that I love you but I just want to hurt you

Your demands of me are too high The stress I can longer hide I'm sorry but I won't be back this time Cos I gave you all I've got to give there is nothing left to give you anymore oh, I gave you all I've got to give but it is still not enough for you The pain you inflict is too cruel You're tearing me to shreds with every word you say And I gave you all I've got to give there is nothing left to give you anymore oh, I gave you all I've got to give but it is still not enough for you The anger in your eyes shines through I know often speak about leaving you but this time I'm really gotta go Cos I gave you all I've got to give there is nothing left to give you anymore Oh I gave you all I've got to give but it's still not enough for you And I gave you I've got to give there is nothing left to give you anymore Oh, I gave you all I've got to give but it is still not enough for you Oh, I gave you all I've got to give There's nothing left to give you anymore Oh, I gave you all I've got to give But it's still not enough for you
