Wilson Phillips Album

I know this pain
Why do lock yourself up in these chains?
No one can change your life except for you
Don't ever let anyone step all over you
Just open your heart and your mind
Is it really fair to feel this way inside?

Chorus:
Some day somebody's gonna make you want to
Turn around and say goodbye
Until then baby are you going to let them
Hold you down and make you cry
Don't you know?
Don't you know things can change
Things'll go your way
If you hold on for one more day
Can you hold on for one more day
Things'll go your way
Hold on for one more day

You could sustain
Or are you comfortable with the pain?
You've got no one to blame for your unhappiness
You got yourself into your own mess
Lettin' your worries pass you by
Don't you think it's worth your time
To change your mind?

(Chorus)

I know that there is pain
But you hold on for one more day and
Break free the chains
Yeah I know that there is pain
But you hold on for one more day and you
Break free, break from the chains

Some day somebody's gonna make you want to
Turn around and say goodbye
Until then baby are you going to let them
Hold you down and make you cry
Don't you know?
Don't you know things can change
Things'll go your way
If you hold on for one more day yeah
If you hold on

Don't you know things can change
Things'll go your way
If you hold on for one more day,
If you hold on
Can you hold on
Hold on baby
Won't you tell me now
Hold on for one more day 'Cause
It's gonna go your way

Don't you know things can change
Things'll go your way
If you hold on for one more day
Can't you change it this time

Make up your mind
Hold on
Hold on
Baby hold on

You can't hide it from me
Admit it baby
'Cause I'm wise to your disguise
I've seen you love me with your eyes

Even if you think I'm a fool and I just can't tell
Then you don't know me well
Won't you come over here and break the ice
It would be so nice

It's what you want when you're around me
You're a little bit shy, and I feel the need
And I can tell that you're happy you found me
Just give it up...

Chorus:
Why wait around when you know what you're feeling (give it up)
I look through your eyes
I can see that you want somebody (give it up)
It could feel so good to get into it.
Give it up! Give it up! You want it baby.
Give it up! Give it up! You know you got me.
Come on, come on, come on and give it up.

I can't, I can't lie to you
Now we can all tell stories so come over here and love me. Uh-huh
Even if you think I'm a fool and I just can't tell
Sorry I know you well.
And I know you will

Come over here and love me
It's what you want when you're around me
You're a little bit shy, and I feel the need
And I can tell that you're happy you found me
Just give it up...

(Chorus)

So dream your way into my life
'Cause baby I'll give you tonight
I'll bring all your pictures to life
Give it up! Give it up! Give it up! Give it up!
Give it up... (ooh God) Give it up... Just give it up...Give it up

Give it up! Give it up (Yeah!)
Give it up! Give it up!
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, give it up
Give it up! Won't you give it up baby tonight?

I recognize that smile
Our winter was oh so cold
You wore your mysterious cloak just like a child
No careless words were said
We spoke with eyes instead
We looked into each other like long lost friends

But then you went away
And I never heard
You had a summer haunt
You said the ice would kill
But you would not be caught

Chorus:
We have eyes like twins
Where your last thought ends my next begins always
Just one heartbeat away
From everything I mean to say oh
Catch me I'm falling for you
Wish for me I'll come running to save you
Touch me I'm calling for you
Remember me, I will never betray you
We have eyes like twins

I slept a thousand hours
My heart felt cold as a coward's
You sent a southern breeze like forest fire
I heard those voices too
I dreamed each dream with you
We breathe as one together and shed our tears

But then I woke with you
And my dream came true
I'll never hold you here
I know when winter comes that you will disappear

(Chorus)

I see red, when you're in danger
And I see blue, when you are crying
All the pictures I believe
You are no stranger
You are no stranger

(Chorus)

Catch me I'm falling for you
Remember me, you are no stranger
We have eyes like twins
You are no stranger to me
Just one heartbeat away

Not so long ago we were so in phase
You and I could never forget the days
But then the fire seemed to flicker
Cold wind came and it carried us away
But we'll get back someday, baby

The dream is still alive
Look here in my eyes
Can you see what I'm feeling?
The dream is still alive
The one of you and I
And my heartache is healing
I couldn't let it die
No I knew it would survive
The dream is still alive

Not so long ago in a purple haze
People dreamed out loud they were not afraid
They stopped the war but not the dying
Some got a little bit lost along the way
But somehow we're here today
And we say

The dream is still alive
After all this time
The flame keeps on burning
The dream is still alive
The one of you and I
And my heartache is healing
I couldn't let it die
No I knew it would survive
The dream is, the dream is still alive

Oh yeah..

The dream is still alive
Look here in my eyes
Can you see what I'm feeling
The dream is still alive
The one of you and I
And my heartache is healing
I couldn't let it die
For all the times we tried
The dream is still alive

Open the door and come in
I'm so glad to see you my friend
Don't know how long it has been
Having those feelings again.

And now I see that you're so happy
And ooh, it just sets me free
And I'd like to see
Us as good of friends
As we used to be

Chorus:
Aah, my love, Aah
You're in love
That's the way
It should be
'Cause I want you to be happy
You're in love
And I know
That you're not in love with me
Ooh it's enough
For me to know
That you're in love
Now I'll let you go
'Cause I know
That you're in love

Sometimes it's hard to believe
That you're never coming back to me
I've had this dream that you'd always be by my side
Oh I could have died.

But now I see that you're so happy
And ooh, it just sets me free.
And I'd like to see
Us as good of friends
As we used to be

(Chorus)

I tried to find you but you were so far away
I was praying that fate would bring you back to me
Someday, someday, someday... Ooh, you're in love

Ooh it's enough
For me to know
That you're in love
Now I'll let you go
'Cause I know
That you're in love

Fade

I know that it's time for a change
Mmm but when that change comes
Will you still feel the same?

How many times have I tried to turn this love around?
I don't want to give up
But baby it's time I had two feet on the ground
Can you release me
Can you release me
Now that you're gone I can't help myself from wondering
Oh, if you'd have come down from your high
Would we've been all right?
Release me
Can you release me

Chorus:
Come on baby, come on baby
You knew it was time to just let go
'Cause we want to be free
But somehow it's just not that easy
Come on Darlin', hear me Darlin'
'Cause you're a waste of time for me
I'm trying to make you see
That baby you've just got to release me
Release me
Release me
I'm not going back to you anymore
Finally my weakened heart is healing though very slow
So stop coming around my door
'Cause you're not gonna find
What you're looking for

(Chorus)

What is this power you've got on me
What is this power, Oh
What is it,What is it

(Chorus)

Release me
Will you release me
Ah...Release me
Will you release me

The secret of love
I thought I understood
The way it's supposed to be
I never imagined you could
Blow my theory apart
But now you're running away with my heart

Chorus:
I don't wanna think about it
Don't wanna think clear
Don't analyze
What I'm doing here
Wanna be impulsive
Reckless
And lose myself in your kiss

Arrows through hearts
Drawn on a misty window
You're taking me home in the rain
My heart, it's beating 'Don't say no'
My head keeps saying 'Take it slow'

(Chorus)

You're giving me a feeling
It's a sudden rush
Acting on the moment
Spontaneous, woh
Ooh this is not like me
To follow my heart so easily

I am reckless... Impulsive

I never imagined you could
Blow my theory apart
But now you're running away... with my heart... my heart

(Chorus)

You're giving me a feeling
It's a sudden rush
Acting on the moment
Spontaneous
Wanna be impulsive... reckless
And lose myself in your kiss... woh

Impulsive
I wanna be... impulsive
I'm gonna be impulsive... reckless
And lose myself, lose myself

I wish I had all you ever wanted
I'd give it right to you
But I don't have it

How could I ever find it,
The strength to let you go
'Cause I don't have it
When will I have it?

And it goes, and it goes on
And it goes on

You won't see me cry
You know I decided
That I'm gonna pull myself together
And find a way to fight it
I'm gonna have to hide it
You won't see me cry
You won't see me cry

I've got no choice but to face it
I have to let you know that I don't like it
My love is good for someone
And it may take some time
But I will find him
Why should I waste it?

When I go,
When I go on
I will go on

You won't see me cry
You know I decided
That I'm gonna pull myself together
And find a way to fight it
Even if I have to hide it
You won't see me cry
You won't see me cry
You won't see me...(oh ah uh)

I finally decided
And I found the way to fight it...

So you won't see me...cry
You won't see me cry

Softly, love is standing here with its demands
(Tell me what you want from me, you want from me)
Slowly, I think I'm letting go of all my plans
(Tell me where we're goin' to, we're goin' to)

Why, why am I afraid to give into this
Why am I afraid?

Chorus:
This doesn't have to be love
But it's all I can feel, it's all that I fear.
This doesn't have to be anything at all,
So hard to fall (from this high above)
But do we have to call it love?

I hold back, from everything I really want to say
(Should I let my guards down, my guards down, my guards down)
I don't, I don't make commitments that could break
(Maybe it's just too late, it's just too late)

I, I'm so afraid to give into this
I'm so afraid, Oh

(Chorus)

Need a little time to think things through, Baby
Do I really want to give myself, give all myself to you, now?
I can't believe it's happening so fast
'Cause I don't want to bring back what I left in the past, No.

(Chorus)

So hard to fall...in love
This doesn't have to be...love
(Love, love is all I feel...your love is what I fear)
Love me...love me
So hard to fall
So very hard to fall.

Fade

If you never plan to come out of your shell, you're never gonna get well.
I understand your reasons not to.
What you don't know is what you're afraid of.
And I'm afraid of it too
But can I even talk to you again?

Oh part of me wants to call you up, and talk to you like a friend.
And there's a part of me that wants to shut you out
And never see your face again.

Chorus:
How can we be like enemies when we're only flesh and blood?
What does it take to make your heart bleed, Daddy aren't we enough?
You can get through there's nothing stopping you from getting to us
No one can take a way the fact that we're only...flesh and blood
For years I've been following your case, It's the only time I see your face
And we've learned to live without you.
Who you don't know is who you're afraid of
And we're afraid of you too
But will we ever talk to you again?

Oh part of me wants to call you up, just talk to you like a friend
There's a part of me that wants to shut you out
And never see your face again.

(Chorus)

I want to make you laugh, and I want a chance to know you better.
I want to hear you sing beside me now.
We're just like you.

(Chorus)

I want to make you laugh, I want a chance to know you better
I want to hear you sing beside me now... flesh and blood
I want to make you laugh (want to make you laugh), and I want a chance to know
you better
I want to hear you sing beside me now
I'm a part of you, and I miss you.

A song for you, for only you.
