(Rick Astley)

She wants to dance
She wants to dance with me
Oh yeah (dance with me)

There's a girl I've been waiting to see
And I really get the feeling that she likes me
'Cos she said so, but not in so many words
I've got to tell you what I've heard

She don't want no wild romance
When she's with me she only wants to dance

She wants to dance with me
'Cos I'll hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
'Cos I'll let her be what she wants to be

Now I know I've been out of touch
And I never meant to hurt my baby oh so much
'Cos I love her and I think she love me
And that's the way it's got to be

When we're together we never fight
We've got better things to do tonight

She wants to dance with me
'Cos I'll hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
'Cos I'll let her be what she wants to be

She wants to dance
She wants to dance

She wants to dance with me
'Cos I'll hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me

(Stock/Aitken/Waterman)

Are we lovers
Or only just friends
Come tomorrow
Will I be lonely again
When you see me
Is it love in your eyes
What you feeling
Deep down inside

Do you think about me (think about me)
When I'm far away?
Do you dream about me (dream about me)
Can I find a way?
To make you want me (make you want me)
The way I want you
'Cos I think I love you (think I love you)
Could you love me too?

Take me to your heart
Never let me go
If you knew what I'm feeling
You would not say now
Take me to your hear
Never let me go
For your love, for your love
Is all I need to know

Can you tell me
When you look at me
If you need me
In all honesty
Because I'm certain
As sure as can be
I'd make you happy
Eternally

'Cos I think about you (think about you)
When you're far away
And I dream about you (dream about you)
Night and Day
Can I make you want me (make you want me)
The way that I want you
'Cos I think I love you (think I love you)
Could you love me too?

She wants to dance with me
'Cos I'll hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
'Cos I'll let her be what she wants to be

'Cos I think about you (think about you)
When you're far away
And I dream about you (dream about you)
Night and day
Can I make you want me (make you want me)
The way that I want you
'Cos I think I love you (think I love you)
Could you love me too?

She wants to dance with me
'Cos I'll hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me

(Stock/Aitken/Waterman)

I don't wanna lose her
I don't wanna lose her

They told me that she had found somebody new
But I don't believe it
They said I would soon find out she was untrue
But I just can't see it

Maybe I am wrong to doubt it
And now that I think about it
If ever I lost her love
I'd be nothing, nothing without it

I don't wanna lose her, lose that girl
After all that we've been through
I don't wanna lose her, lose that girl of mine
(Lose that girl of mine)

I couldn't imagine life without her love
I just couldn't take it
If you wanted to know how well I would get on
I don't think I'd make it

Maybe I just don't show her
And now that I think it's over
I maybe should shout about it
'Cos I'd be nothing, nothing without it

I don't wanna lose her, lose that girl
After all that we've been through
I don't wanna lose her, lose that girl of mine
(Lose that girl of mine)

I'm gonna make a new start
And bring her back to my heart
'Cos what I found out about her
I just cannot live without her

Maybe I just don't show her
And now that I think it's over
I maybe should shout about it
'Cos I'd be nothing, nothing without it

(Rick Astley)

Giving up on love
Giving up on love
I was so crazy about you, everyone knew
I couldn't sleep when I found out, yeah
You feel the way you do
So maybe it's my turn now
To show you how I feel

So listen to what I say
'Cos these feelings I can't conceal

I'm giving up on love
'Cos I've been hurt before
Giving up on love
And I don't want you no more
I'm giving up on love
'Cos I've been hurt before
Giving up on love
And I don't want you no more

I don't believe that you need me
So don't say you do
There aint no reason for staying
We both know we are through

So don't try to stop me now
'Cos all we had has gone
(All we had has gone)
So listen to what I say
'Cos these feelings are oh so strong

I'm giving up on love
'Cos I've been hurt before
Giving up on love
And I don't want you no more
I'm giving up on love
'Cos I've been hurt before
Giving up on love
And I don't want you no more

Giving up, giving up, giving up on love
Giving up, giving up, giving up on love
Giving up, giving up, giving up on love
Giving up, giving up, giving up on love

So don't try to stop me now
'Cos all we had has gone
(All we had has gone)
So listen to what I say
'Cos these feelings are oh so strong

(Holland/Whitfield)

I know you wanna leave me
But I refuse to let you go
If I have to beg, plead for your sympathy
I don't mind 'cause you mean that much to me

Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darling
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go
Ain't to proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

Now I've heard a crying man is half a man
With no sense of pride
But if I have to cry to keep you
I don't mind weeping
If it'll keep you by my side

Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darling
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go
(Don't you go away) 
Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darling
Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

INSTRUMENTAL

(Don't you go away)
(Don't you go away)

If I have to sleep on your doorstep all night and day
Just to keep you from walking away
Let your friends laugh, even this I can stand
'Cause I wanna keep you any way I can

Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darling
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go
Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darling
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go
Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

Put yourself in my place
I only for a little while
Come on, try it, come on, try it
Come on, try it (try it, try it, try it)
Put yourself in my place
I only for a little while
Come on, try it, come on, try it
Come on, try it (try it, try it, try it)

Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darling
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go
Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me girl, don't you go

(Stock/Aitken/Waterman)

I've been away for such a long time
Every day I miss you
All those long and lonely nights
Counting the hours till I'm with you

Till then
I'll keep holding on
Praying I'm not wrong
Hoping that our love is still strong
(Till then)
Keep our love alive
Hope you're satisfied
Till you're right here by my side
And the hands on the clock
Going round and round and round
But time don't seem to be moving at all

Every minute you were on my mind
Every day I wrote you
Half of me is lost in time
Half of me is always with you

Till then
I'll keep holding on
Praying I'm not wrong
Hoping that our love is still strong
(Till then)
Keep our love alive
Hope you're satisfied
Till you're right here by my side
And the hands on the clock
Going round and round and round
But time don't seem to be moving at all

Another ticket for another trip
To another destination (destination)
It's just the thought of you that keeps me strong
Moving in the right direction

(Rick Astley)

If you ever wake up feeling blue
You know there's always someone
Who'll be right here for you
If there's any little thing
That's gonna get you down
Don't be afraid, I'll always be around

Pick up the phone
And dial my number
That's all you have to do
I'll be over in a while
So just you hush now, child
I'll bring my love to you

Dial my number
That's all you have to do
Just call me up, girl
And I'll make your dreams come true

If you're ever lonely and need some company
Don't ever hesitate if you wanna be with me

Pick up the phone
And dial my number
That's all you have to do
I'll be over in a while
So just you hush now, child
I'll bring my love to you

Dial my number
That's all you have to do
Just call me up, girl
And I'll make your dreams come true

Giving up my time for something that I've heard
I need to hear those words I'm in love

(Instrumental)

Dial my number
That's all you have to do
Just call me up, girl
And I'll make your dreams come true

'cos I love you
I need you
I want you
I'm so in love with you
Yes I love you
I need you
I want you
I'm so in love with you
'cos I love you
I need you
I want you
I'm so in love with you
Yes I love you
I need you
I want you
I'm so in love with you

Dial my number
That's all you have to do
Just call me up, girl
And I'll make your dreams come true

If you're ever lonely and need some company
Don't ever hesitate if you wanna be with me

(Rick Astley)

Me, I'm just a simple guy
And no matter how hard I try
I may never show you how I feel

You may be the woman I love
I sometimes think that you've been sent from above
I am trying to be a man
Heaven knows, I do the best that I can

I'll never let you down
I'll be there whenever you need me 
I'll never let you down
Come what my way

Me, I'll be a shoulder to cry on
I'll be someone you can rely on
And maybe you may see just how I feel

We may be so far apart
But you still know I've got a hungry heart 
We must be patient, it won't last forever
It won't be long until we're together

I'll never let you down
I'll be there whenever you need me 
I'll never let you down
I'll be strong, I'll show you how love can be
I'll never let you down
Come what my way

We must be patient, it won't last forever
It won't be long until we're together

I'll never let you down
I'll be there whenever you need me 
I'll never let you down
I'll be strong, I'll show you how love can be

(Rick Astley)

I don't want to be your lover

Last night I heard you creeping
I was almost sleeping
When I heard you come home
You knew I loved you madly
And I would gladly
Do anything for you

You climbed the stairs to Heaven
But you may never climb those steps again
You thought you'd be forgiven
But I was driven to make you understand

I don't want to be your lover
When there's another lover in your head
I don't want to be your lover
When there's another lover in your bed

Tell me how you could do it
Why put me through it
When you said you'd be true
You said that it was nothing
But it was something
And sometimes that's enough

So climb the stairs to Heaven
But you may never climb those steps again
You thought you'd be forgiven
But I was driven to make you understand

I don't want to be your lover
When there's another lover in your head
I don't want to be your lover
When there's another lover in your bed

(Instrumental)

You climbed the stairs to Heaven
But you may never climb those steps again
You thought you'd be forgiven
But I was driven to make you understand

I don't want to be your lover
When there's another lover in your head
I don't want to be your lover
When there's another lover in your bed

(Rick Astley)

We've been trying for a long time
To say what we want to say
But feelings don't come easy
To express in a simple way

But we all have feelings
We all need loving
And who would be the fool to say, that if you

Hold me in your arms
I won't feel better
If you hold me in your arms
We can brave this storm together

We both know there's a problem
A problem that we've got to face
So put your trust in me, lover
No-one's ever gonna take your place

'Cos we all have a problem
We all have fears
But there's always got to be a way
Yes we all have feelings 
We all need loving 
And you would be a fool to say, that if you

Hold me in your arms
I won't feel better
If you hold me in your arms
We can brave this storm together

(solo)

You only have to hold me
Touch me to make me feel so good
You only have to hold me 
Feel me 
To make me feel the way you know I should

Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
When you gonna hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
