As I stand at the crossroad,
I see the sun sinking low...
With my cross of indecision,
I can't tell which way to go...
Now I have seen the seven wonders
And I have sailed the seven seas,
I've walked and talked with angels,
And danced all night with gypsy queens...

All in all it's been a rocky road,
Twists and turns along the way...
But, I still pray for tomorrow,
All my hopes, my dreams
Don't fade away... Don't fade away...

I have painted many portraits,
Memories of love and pain,
Though cut down by life's deceptions
I found the strength to start again...

All in all it's been a rocky road,
Twists and turns along the way...
But, I still pray for tomorrow,
All my hopes, my dreams
Don't fade away... Don't fade away.

Heaven help a man
Trying to make up his mind,
With the darkness closing in,
I feel I'm running out of time...
Shine a light for me,
Help me find the way to go,
And take me where I've never been before...

And so I stand at the crossroad,
Watching the sun sinking low...
With my cross of indecision,
Trying to find the way to go...

All in all it's been a rocky road,
Twists and turns along the way,
But, I still pray for tomorrow
All my hopes, my dreams
Don't fade away...

Some people tell me
The blues ain't bad,
But, I've never know anything
Make me feel so sad...
Running on empty, hurting to the core,
When everything don't mean nothing any more...

From a distance
Every little thing looks fine,
But, the closer you get
You see the make up,
Cracked and lined...
Somewhere there's a rainbow
With a pot of gold,
But, by the time you get there
It's been taken and sold...

So I keep saying, baby...

All in the name of love,
It's all in the name of love, my friend,
All in the name of love
We all suffer in the end...

In my room
There are no shadows in the wall,
'Cause I closed up the window
So no light gets in at all.
It's a bad situation,
With no end in sight,
A heartache deep as the ocean
And darker than the night...

So I keep saying to you, baby,

All in the name of love,
It's all in the name of love, my friend,
All in the name of love
We all suffer in the end...

With no one to lean on
You pray to the Lord above,
But, we keep hurting each other
In the name of love...

All in the name of love...

With no one to lean on
You pray to the Lord above,
But, we keep hurting each other
In the name of love...

All in the name of love,
It's all in the name of love, my friend,
All in the name of love
We all suffer in the end...

All in the name of love,
It's all in the name of love, my friend,
All in the name of love
We all suffer in the end...

All in the name of love...

Restless heart, restless mind,
I'm tired of wasting,
My precious time.

There are times in my life,
I don't know witch way to turn,
When everything I touch
I get my fingers burned...
Dreams to ashes, ashes to dust,
When all that glitters
Is dull with rust...

Restless heart, restless mind,
I'm tired of wasting,
My precious time...

I'm torn and tattered,
Shattered and worn,
I've had enough
Trying to live my life
In the eye of the storm...
Every heartache
Leaves a scar on my face,
Somebody reach out
Or throw me a line,
Get me out of this place...

Restless heart, restless mind,
I'm tired of wasting, wasting,
My precious time...

Oh, so tired.

Restless heart, restless mind,
I'm tired of wasting,
My precious time...

Restless heart, restless mind,
I'm tired of wasting, wasting,
All of my precious time...

Restless heart, restless mind,
So I'm tired of wasting, wasting,
All of my precious time, time, time

Restless heart...

I used to be the man for you
Did everything you wanted me to
So tell me baby
Where did I go wrong

I told you what you wanted to know
Precious secrets never spoken before
All I'm asking
Where did I go wrong

Some things are better left unsaid
But all I do is cry instead
Now I've cried me a river
Thinking how it used to be

There've been too many tears falling
And there've been too many hearts
Breaking in two
Remember what we had together
Believing it would last forever
So tell me baby
Where did I go wrong

Everything I had was yours
More than I have ever given before
So won't you tell me
Did I hurt you so bad

I guess I'm fooling myself
'Cause I want you and no one else
And I can't understand
Why you're doing these things to me
There've been too many tears falling
And there've been too many hearts
Breaking in two
Remember what we had together
Believing it would last forever
So tell me baby
Where did I go wrong

Now my heart is breaking
My whole world is shaking
"Cause I can't understand
Why you're doing these things to me

There've been too many tears falling
And there've been too many hearts
Breaking in two
Remember what we had together
Believing it would last forever
So tell me baby
Where did I go wrong

I smell trouble
And where there's smoke
There must be fire...
You sow your seeds of jealousy
And the flames
Just keep on growing higher...

This can't be love anymore,
I know, 'cause I've done
Everything I can...
And all that you can do
I pour gasoline
On a burning man...

Tears of rage, tears of pain,
Burning my eyes,
I realise, I'm crying...
Crying... I'm crying
Bitter tears falling like rain...

Lies...
I can never understand,
You play your cards under the table,
Dealing me a losing hand...

Tears of rage, tears of pain,
Burning my eyes,
I realise, I'm crying
Crying... I'm crying
Bitter tears falling like rain...
Crying, always crying, crying
Bitter tears falling like rain...

I want to be there
When your demons come to call...

I'm gonna finish what you started, baby,
Watch you burn little house down,
Burn it down, down, down...

Then I'll see you crying,
Crying... Crying...
Bitter tears falling like rain...

Where did you go
When things went wrong, baby,
And who did you run to,
To find a shoulder
To lay your head upon.
Baby, wasn't I there,
Didn't I take good care of you.

Oh no, I can't believe you leaving me...

Stay with me, baby,
Stay with me, baby...
Won't you stay with me, baby,
I can't go on...

Who did you touch
When you need tenderness.
I gave so much
And in return I found happiness.
Baby, what did I do
Maybe I was too good, too good for you.

No, no, I can't believe you leaving me.

Stay with me, baby,
Stay with me, baby.
Won't you stay with me, baby,
I can't go on.

Remember,
You said you're always gonna need me,
Remember,
You said you'd never, ever leave me,
Remember, remember, I'm asking you, begging you.

Stay with me, baby,
Stay with me, baby...
Won't you stay with me, baby,
I can't go on, can't go on...

Stay with me, baby,
Stay with me, stay with me, baby.
Won't you stay with me, baby,
I can't go on...

I've been feeling sentimental,
In a melancholy way,
Blues siting on my shoulder,
Getting heavier every day...

Staring into space,
One thing on my mind,
I've been trying to drown
The thought of you
By drinking too much wine...

Then my imagination
Starts running wild,
I snap my fingers
And you're there by my side...

Can't go on without your love,
There's no song without your love...
Ain't no reason, ain't no rhyme,
Without your love
I'll go out of my mind...

Been getting too lazy,
Letting myself go,
Feeling like a refugee
No one cares for anymore...
Endless lonely days,
I just try to get through,
And there's no escape,
Even when I sleep,
'Cause all I dream is you...

Then my imagination
Gets the better of me,
'Cause you're everywhere I go,
In everything I see...

I can't go on without you love,
There's no song without your love...
There ain't no reason, there ain't no rhyme,
Without your love
I'll go out of my mind...

You make me dance,
You make me sing,
When I'm with you
I can do anything...
When I'm cold,
You keep me warm.
And give me shelter
From the howling storm...

There ain't no reason, there ain't no rhyme,
Without your love
I'll go out of my mind...

Can't go on without your love,
There's no song without your love...

I want you so bad,
The thought is driving me mad
Like a cat on the prowl,
You come when you want
And not when I call

So sly, so pretty,
I wanna steal all the keys to your city
Tight skirt, skinny leg,
You make a bad dog sit up and beg

You're everything I want,
Everything I need
Come in out of the cold, pretty woman,
Spend the night with me

Oh, you're so fine
Oh, I wanna make your mine all mine,
'Til the end of time,
Baby, you're so fine

You're so hot with body heat,
You cause a fire walking down the street
You got class, you got style,
The girls don't like it,
But, the boys go wild

You're everything I want,
Everything I need
Come in out of the cold, pretty woman,
Spend the night with me

Oh, you're so fine
Oh, I wanna make your mine

Dance little sister,
Spinning on a dime,
Shake a shimmy little twister

I'm gonna make you,
I'm gonna make you mine,
Mine all mine,
You're so fine

I want you so bad,
Just the thought is driving me mad,
I wanna know what you'll do,
Baby, baby, I can't wait
To get my hands on you

You're everything I want,
Everything I need
Come in out of the cold, pretty woman,
Spend the night with me

Oh, you're so fine
Oh, I wanna make your mine
Oh, you're so fine
Oh, I wanna make your mine all mine
You're so fine, you're so fine
You're so fine, you're so fine
You're so fine...

I'm far from home,
And tired of this place,
I miss your good, good love
And your sweet embrace
Can't sleep at night
With you on my mind,
I just wanna run to you, baby,
Leave it all behind

'Cause it seems so long
Since I heard your song,
I'm coming home to you, baby,
Back where I belong

Your precious love,
That's all I need,
Angel spread your wings
And bring it on home to me

Sometimes in my life
I don't know what to do,
Tho' I'm weak for myself
I try to be strong for you.
You're there when I need you,
After all these years,
So I send you this letter, baby,
Written in tears

'Cause it seems so long
Since I heard your song,
I'm coming home to you, baby, baby,
Back where I belong

Your precious love,
That's all I need,
Angel spread your wings
And bring it on home to me

'Cause it seems so long
Since I heard your song,
I'm coming home to you, baby,
Back where I belong

Your precious love,
That's all I need,
Angel spread your wings
And bring it, bring it, bring on home

Your precious love, your precious love,
That's all that I need.
Angel spread your wings and
Bring it, bring it, bring on home
Bring it baby, baby, that's all I want.

Your precious love
Your precious love, that's all I need
Your precious love, your precious love
Your precious love, that's all I need
C'mon bring on home, baby
Won't you bring on home
I need your love...

Now I smoke a lot of cigarettes,
And I've been drinking too much wine
You've been patient and understanding,
I guess I went to far this time
I cut you with my drunken words,
So much sharper than a knife,
But, you turned the tables on me, baby,
Just by walking out of my life

Too late to say I'm sorry,
It won't happen anymore
But, you don't believe a word I say
'Cause you've heard it all before
But, all the same,
Won't you take me back again

Don't say it's over,
After all that we've been through
Take some time to think about it, baby,
While I sing my song to you
Your suitcase by the back door,
Packed with broken dreams,
When night time comes to call on me,
I'll know what loneliness means
But, all the same,
Won't you take me back again

Take me back again, take me back again
All I'm asking is forgiveness,
Won't you take me back again
Take me back again, take me back again
All I'm asking is forgiveness,
Won't you take me back again

But, baby, all the same
Won't you take me back again
Take me back again, take me back again

But, baby, all the same
Won't you take me back again
Take me back again, take me back again
Won't you take me back again
No, no, no, no, take me back again

Don't walk away from me baby
I beggin' you please, uh
I beggin' you please, uh
Take me back again
Take me back again

The womans name was trouble,
She put the blame on me
I asked her what her game was,
She said "Misery"
I didn't ask no questions,
I did not even pray
When the angel on my shoulder
Said I should walk away

You promised me heaven,
But, you gave me hell,
Cut me down to the bone
With your kiss and tell
Nobody listens to a word I say,
Still I'm gonna curse you, woman,
'Til my dying day

I should have known better
With a girl like you
You shame the devil
With the things you do
I was blind, now I see
A lying woman be the death of me

I got woman trouble blues,
Woman trouble blues

You told me it was meant to be,
But, all you did was put the hurt on me
You made my life a living hell,
And drowned my dreams in the wishing well

I've got woman trouble blues,
Woman trouble blues

There ain't no doubt I'm going down

The womans name was trouble,
She put the blame on me,
I gave her what she wanted
And I got misery
Now I don't take much persuading,
At times I'm easily led,
I'm gonna find myself in a prison cell
Thro' the lying things she said

I'll stand accused on judgement day,
And pray the lord hears what I say
All my life I never learned,
I played with fire and I got burned

Woman trouble blues,
I got woman trouble blues
Woman trouble blues,
Mean ol' woman trouble blues

I need your love to get me through
All the things I wanna do,
Babe, if you want me to
I'll get on my knees for you
But, you gotta give me a little sign,
You got the same thing on your mind
Every day an' every night
Give me the green light

An' let it roll, let it ride,
I'll be your dog 'til you're satisfied
I'll be your puppet on a string
Cos' for a spoonful of your sugar
I would do anything
Anything you want,
Anything you need
Anytime at all

It is so hard for you to see,
I just love your company
An' there ain't nothing I won't do,
Just to prove my love to you

An' let it roll, let it ride,
I'll be your dog 'til you're satisfied
I'll be your puppet on a string
Cos' for a spoonful of your sugar
I would do anything

So baby, try to understand
I was born to be your man
Don't keep me knocking at your door,
Just tell me yes or tell me no

An' let it roll, let it ride,
I'll be your dog 'til you're satisfied
I'll be your puppet on a string
Cos' for a spoonful of your sugar
I would do anything
Anything you want,
Anything you need

My mama always said
If you want you should get in fast
While the going's good
Lie like a rug if you fool around
Just don't get caught with your trousers down

Somebody stop me,
Tie me down
I tell you, baby,
I can't, I can't stop now

My daddy said son gotta understand,
Don't think twice get it while you can
You can't hang around, you can't stand still,
Cos' if you don't take it another man will

Somebody stop me,
Tie me down
I tell you, baby,
I can't, I can't stop now
I got an eye for a pretty girl,
An' a sweet tooth for trouble

I can't stop, can't stop, can't stop now
I can't stop cause it tastes so good,
I got a sweet tooth
For trouble

No rest for the wicked, no peace of mind
When you got a jukebox heart
Working overtime
I maybe out of touch,
Maybe out of line
But, baby, you got your life
An' I got mine

Somebody stop me,
Tie me down
I tell you, baby,
I can't, I can't stop now
I got an eye for a pretty girl,
An' a sweet tooth for trouble

I can't stop, can't stop, can't stop now
I got an eye for a pretty girl,
An' a sweet tooth for trouble
