'Til Tuesday Album

There was a time
you opened up every doorway
you didn't mind if everything
wasn't your way
Don't pull away
that goes against what you told me
I look in your eyes 
I realize what you've sold me

is love in a vacuum
Love in a vacuum

I think you've changed
but you insist that
that's not true
You look so strange, so distant
that you're hardly you
Now I can see
how you have been acting different
You say it's me
but I know
that it isn't
it's love in a vacuum
Love in a vacuum
and that's not enough
love in a vacuum
You will be lonely
you'll be the only one who feels this way
You will be lonely
if you leave me alone 
You will be lonely
you'll be the only one who feels this way
it's just not enough
and just wait
you will be lonely
Love in a vacuum
Love in a vacuum 
and that's not enough
Love in a vacuum

Verse 1:
If I'm calling you out of the blue
It's because it's never-ending
and if I'm dragging out pictures of you
it's because I'm only pretending

Chorus:
and if I'm looking over my shoulder
it's just because I hope you'll be there
and if I'm looking older and older
it's because I know I haven't a prayer

Verse 2:

When I'm wearing my heart on my sleeve
it wears out after a fashion
and I'm finding it hard to believe
your whole-hearted lack of compassion

Chorus:

and if I'm looking over my shoulder
it's just because I hope you'll be there
and if I'm looking older and older
it's because I know I haven't a prayer

and if I'm looking over my shoulder
it's just because I hope you'll be there
and if I'm looking older and older
it's because I know I haven't a prayer

No, you don't know
it makes no sense
and there goes
your confidence
you were so understanding
so sure of yourself
but when love became damaged
you ran for help
How can you give up on love - Oh
How can you give up on love so soon
How can you give up on love this time
you ought to know love is hard to find

Steady
hold your breath
It isn't
over yet
So with one small admission
your paying the price
did you tell yourself lying was
good advice

How can you give up on love
How can you give up on love so soon
How can you give up on love this time
you ought to know love is hard to find

It's not easy to tell where
security lies
Is it stupid to trust in 
the look in her eyes

How can you give up on love
How can you give up on love so soon
How can you give up on love this time
you ought to know love is hard to find

[repeat chorus]
[fade on chorus]

Verse 1:
There is no love here (there is no love) 
Only some sort of blackmail
whatever you feel 
(whatever you feel)
probably only comes down 
to male and female 

Chorus:
No more crying 
over you
No more crying 
over you
No more crying 
over you
No more crying 
because of you

Verse 2:
Found myself thinking
(you shouldn't think)
he was almost sincere
but you know rumours
(you know that talk)
you believe what you hear 

Chorus:
No more crying over you
No more crying over you
No more crying over you
No more crying

Verse 3:
I saw it coming
(but you let it come)
it's the same old story
you ignore his lying (lying) 
believe him when he says
that he's sorry

Chorus:
No more crying over you
No more crying over you
No more crying over you
No more crying over over you

No more crying over you
No more crying over you
No more crying over
you

Verse 1:
In the dark, I like to read his mind
but I'm frightened of the things I might find
Oh, there must be something he's thinking of
to tear him away
when I tell him that I'm falling in love
why does he say

Chorus:
Hush hush keep it down now voices carry
Hush hush keep it down now voices carry
Uh-uh

Verse 2:
I try so hard not to get upset
because I know all the trouble I'll get
oh, he tells me tears are something to hide
and something to fear
and I try so hard to keep it inside
so no one can hear

Chorus:
Hush hush keep it down now voices carry
Hush hush keep it down now voices carry
Hush hush keep it down now voices carry
Uh-uh

He wants me
but only part of the time
He wants me 
if he can keep me in line

Hush hush keep it down now voices carry
Hush hush keep it down now voices carry
Hush hush shut up now voices carry
Hush hush keep it down now voices carry
Oh hush hush, darling, she might overhear
Hush, hush - voices carry
He said shut up - he said shut up
Oh God can't you keep it down
Voices carry
Hush hush voices carry
I wish he would let me talk.

You fight just for the sake of it
You know what hurts the most
You might have once been faking it
but now it cuts too close

Winning the war
and losing every battle
you close the door
on happy ever after

We should have stopped it long ago
when there was love still
but we would give in to ego
and never stop until

Winning the war
and losing every battle
you close the door
on happy ever after

I know, you know
winning the war
is not winning at all
I know, you know
winning the war
is not winning at all

Winning the war
and losing every battle
you close the door
on happy ever after

Here I go again
making promises
if I tell you no
it still sounds like yes

You know the rest
do I have to say it?

Am I in too deep?
Can I still confess?
-when you trusted me
that was just a guess

I guess
you know the rest
you know the rest
do I have to say it?

Well, I warned you once
but without success
and I just escape
with my heart
a mess

know the rest
(it's not so easy)
you know the rest
(its not that easy)
do I have to say it?
you know the rest.

Tell me again you only want what's good for me
tell me again you're gonna make me happy 
tell me again I have promises to keep
tell me again- I might stop crying in my sleep 

maybe Monday he'll call
maybe Monday he'll call- maybe Monday - oh
maybe Sunday, maybe Monday, maybe never 
maybe Sunday, maybe Monday, maybe never 

Tell me again I am almost over it
tell me again pretty soon I'll forget
tell me again you're gonna fix my broken heart
tell me again- maybe I will not fall apart

maybe Sunday, maybe Monday, maybe never
maybe Sunday, maybe Monday, maybe never

It makes me laugh
I'm spending all my time
Staring at his photograph
and that's the catch 
oh, I feel foolish
but I know it's really all I have
maybe Monday he'll call
maybe Monday he'll call
maybe Monday - oh

maybe Sunday, maybe Monday, maybe never
maybe Sunday, maybe Monday, maybe never
maybe Sunday, maybe Monday, maybe never
maybe Sunday, maybe Monday, maybe never

Verse 1:

I used to watch her sleep an angel on vacation
I fell in love so deep far too far to mention
She looked just like a thousand stars
when they came out at night
but when I looked inside her heart
I found it locked up tight

Chorus:

Oh angels never help you
cause angels always fall

Verse 2:

She smoked a cigarette
it only blurred my vision
I couldn't help but stay
with my first impression
I'm wondering with every breath
what caused my fall from grace
I guess I beat myself to death
against her lovely face

Chorus:

Oh angels never help you
cause angels always fall

Chorus:

and angels (it's simply that I never knew her)
sometimes kiss you (wish to God that I had known)
oh but angels (but everything that I remember)
never call (is gone)

Bridge:
Oh angels (it's simply that I never knew her)
never help you (wish to God that I had known)

always fall (is gone)

and angels (it's simply that I never knew her)
sometimes kiss you (wish to God that I had known)
oh but angels (but everything that I remember)
never call (is gone)

I used to watch her sleep - an angel on vacation... 

Verse 1:
We talked on the second of December
And I told her that our chances were slender
And this conversation sounded so familiar
Like a welcome mat - a broken blender

Verse 2:
We walked to a restaurant she'd been to
And I looked at her while she was looking into
Someone else's mirror - seeing if she's someone too
Giving me that deja vu

Chorus:
I look back
And I see that same old rag (?)
He's calling my name
He says you're gonna do it again

Verse 3:
Time is all we need, she finally let out
But I see her drawing maps if she can get out
Now I wonder which of us will get the axe out
And do the final blow

Chorus:
I look back
And I see that same old rag (?)
He's calling my name
He says you're gonna do it again

Bridge:
Says you're gonna do it again

I saw you
I said this time it's different
I'll know better
But I can't keep from loving
I have heard that one before

Ooooh

Verse 4:
It was a shock I guess, but I'm not surprised
I would've done the same, if I was in your eyes
You know you left a trail about a mile wide
And though I've been there once
And seen the signs

Verse 5:
I just followed you to
my forgone defeat because my
My history has a habit of repeating
I expect some trouble got the same beating
Time and time again

Chorus:
I look back
And I see that same old rag (?)
He's calling my name
He's says you're gonna do it again

Ah - says you're gonna do it again
(says you're gonna do it again)
Says you're gonna do it again
(says you're gonna do it again)
ah
(says you're gonna do it again)
ah
(says you're gonna do it again)
ah
(says you're gonna do it again)

Verse 1:
You are on your honor, now be on your way
I'll be right behind you, you can hear me say

Chorus:
Sleep, close your eyes, say goodnight now
he is waiting
Sleep, close your eyes, say your prayers now
he is waiting

Verse 2:
Thought you'd live forever, thought you'd never die
I am so familiar, with each lonely cry
Oh baby don't cry

Chorus:
Sleep, close your eyes, say goodnight now
he is waiting
Sleep, close your eyes, say your prayers now
he is waiting

Bridge:
Thought you'd live forever 
thought you'd change your mind
oh, when you get to heaven 
tell me what you find
Peace of mind, I hope

Chorus:
Sleep, close your eyes, say goodnight now
he is waiting
Sleep, close your eyes, say your prayers now
he is waiting

Chorus:
Sleep, close your eyes, say goodnight now
he is waiting
Sleep, close your eyes, say your prayers now
Oh I'll be waiting

Say goodnight
You're not forsaken
say goodnight
he's waiting

Say goodnight
You're not forsaken
say goodnight
he's waiting
