Oh I try and I try but I can't say goodbye

Feel so bad, baby Oh, it hurts me
When I think of how you love and desert me
I'm the broken-hearted toy you play with, baby

[Chorus:]
You got me going I need you, baby
I can't let go, and I want you, baby
I gotta have you, you know, I can't let go

Though I'm just one of your lovers
And I know there are so many others
You do something strange to me, baby, baby

[Chorus]

Oh I try and I try but I can't say goodbye
Know that it's wrong and I should be so strong
But the thought of you gone makes me want to hold on

[Chorus 2x]

I can't let go
I can't let go
I can't let go
I can't let go

If I were the sun, way up there
I'd roll around almost anywhere
Oh, I'd be the moon when the sun goes down
Just to let you know, I'm still around

[Chorus:]
That's how strong my love is, oh
That's how strong my love is, baby, baby
That's how strong my love is, yeah
That's how strong my love is

I'd be the weeping willow, drown in my tears
You could go swimming whenever you're near
Oh, I'd be the rainbow when tears are gone
Wrap you in my colors, keep you warm

[Chorus]

I'd be the ocean so deep and so wide
I'd shed your tears whenever you'd cry
I'd be the breeze when the storms are gone
And dry your eyes and keep you warm

That's how strong love is, yeah
That's how strong my love is, baby, baby
That's how strong love is, listen to me know
That's how strong my love is

I'd be the ocean so deep and so wide
I'd shed your tears whenever you'd cry
I'd be the breeze when the storms are gone
And dry your eyes and keep you warm

[Chorus]

I've been runnin' through the night
Tryin' to reach and hold you tight
I've been wonderin' just why you stayed away
But when I reached your home
I found out that you had gone
I found out someone had taken you away

Ever since the day I cared all my dream we've shared
And my love for you grown stronger every day
And now you've said good-bye all I do is cry
I've been wondrin' just why you went away

[Break]

Ever since the day I cared all my dream we've shared
And my love for you grown stronger every day
And now you've said good-bye all I do is cry
I've been wondrin' just why you went away

Won't you come on back to my side
Please oh please don't hurt my pride
Tryin' to get along without you ain't so good
And if you play along I will say that I was wrong
'Cause my love for you grows stronger like it should
'Cause my love for you grows stronger like it should

How soon tears begin to tumble
From her laughing eyes
She's been talking to somebody
Who told her lies
She'll never trust in anybody no more
Who told her lies
She'll never trust in anybody no more

How can I begin to reach her
Let her know the truth
What that someone has been saying
Is only lies
She'll never trust in anybody no more
It's only lies
She'll never trust in anybody no more

How could she think that I
Would take advantage of a girl like her
How could she think that I
Would sacrifice all I have felt for her
Would sacrifice all I have felt for her

Like a flower she is fading
Soon she'll wilt and die
If she doesn't get the sunlight
That I can give
She'll never trust in anybody no more
That I can give
She'll never trust in anybody no more

[Verse 3]

[Verse 4]

A taste of honey... tasting much sweeter than wine.

I dream of your first kiss, and then,
I feel upon my lips again,
A taste of honey... tasting much sweeter than wine.

I will return, yes I will return,
I'll come back for the honey and you.

Yours was the kiss that awoke my heart,
There lingers still, 'though we're far apart,
That taste of honey... tasting much sweeter than wine.

I will return, yes I will return,
I'll come back (he'll come back) for the honey (for the honey) and you.

You came to me one summer night
And from your beam you made my dream
Woh let me tell you now
And from the world you sent my girl
And from above you sent love

Now she is mine
I think you'll find
Because she loves you
Mr Moonlight

Mr. Moonlight
Come and again please
Here I am on my knees
Begging you to please

The night you don't come my way
I pray each day
Because she loves you
Mr Moonlight

[Break]

The night you don't come my way,
I pray each day
Because she loves you
Mr Moonlight

Mr. Moonlight
Come and again please
Here I am on my knees
Begging you to please

The night you don't come my way,
I pray each day
Because she loves you
Mr. Moonlight

Don't you even care what's gonna happen to me, whoah
You're turning me loose and I never asked to be free, no
After all that we've been through
How can you let it end
I wanna be your lifetime man
But you wanna be my friend

Don't you even care what's gonna happen to me, whoah
Don't you even care what's gonna happen to me

How will I spend my days
What will I do each night
I could go out alone
Somehow it don't seem right

Do, yeah
Do, yeah

Don't you even care what's gonna happen to me, whoah
Don't you even care what's gonna happen to me

Don't you ever think about anybody but you
After you have gone, babe
What am I gonna do, oh
So, come on, baby, change your mind
Please stay here with me
Come on, baby, we'll be fine
Just you wait and see

Don't you even care what's gonna happen to me, whoah
Don't you even care what's gonna happen to me
Do, yeah Do, yeah Do yeah

Bad times, something's wrong
Money's gone, I'm on my own
Can't stay, there's nothing here
It's been a hard, hard year

First month, snows came
Put me in bed, couldn't work the same
Job's gone, bills are here
Been a hard, hard year

I look on the bad side of life
I lose heart then I want to die
So I've got to get back on my feet
And prove to myself I'm a man

I hope that the bad times are gone
It's been work, but I think that I've won
Now I'm happy
And I'll never be that way again
No, I'll never be that way again

Snow's gone, spring's here
Won't happen twice, I've seen my way clear
Everyone's paid, got no one to fear
Been a hard, hard year

Take your time, I can wait
All of our love I know will be mine
If you take your time

Take your time, though it's late
Heart strings will sing like a string of twine
If you take your time

Take your time and take mine too
I have time to spend
Take your time, go with me through
Times 'til all times end

[Verse 1]

[Verse 3]

[Verse 1]

For our love, the love I know will be mine
If you take your time

Fifi the flea fell in love
With a clown from a flea circus fair
She gave him her heart
But he still couldn't see
That for such a long time she had cared
He put himself 'round all the other girl fleas
Unaware that he hurt her so badly
She cried in the arms of his manager friend
And declared that she loved the clown madly

One day Fifi went
And this drove the clown wild
The poor little flea started crying
Never you mind his manager said
I ought not to tell but she's dyin'
Dyin' for love of you little flea
You've broken her heart with your lyin'
She couldn't stand to see you throw
Her love away without tryin'

The day Fifi died the little clown vowed
He'd tend her grave every hour
He broke down and cried
When he saw her grave
And on it he placed a small flower
Poor little flea he wasted away
He'd lost his Fifi forever
So they opened her grave
Put him inside
Now at last they are together

Oh, I take what I want
Oh, I'm a bad go-getter, yeah
Yes, I am
I'm never a loser
And I'm never a quitter, yeah
Oh, no
'Cos I take what I want
Yeah, baby, I want you
Nobody but you, child

I've been a-watching you walk by
But I never said a word
Not one word
But now I'm 'round to get you
And I'm gonna make you my girl
My loving girl now
'Cos I take what I want
Yeah, baby, I want you
Nobody but you, child

Gonna pick you up now
Carry you away, yes, I am
So you better pack up now, baby
Pack it up today
Here I come
Just a big, bad man
When you see me walk away, baby
You'll be holding my hand

'Cos I take what I want
Oh, I'm a bad go-getter, yeah
Yes, I am
And now I'm 'round to get you
And I'm gonna make you my girl
My loving girl now
'Cos I take what I want
Yeah, baby, I want you
Nobody but you child (listen to me)
Nobody but you, you, you
Nobody but you, child
Oh, listen to me
Got nobody but you now
