Don’t Leave Me This Way (rob fahey)
you been out, round, all over
town
baby that’s what i hear
when i
ring phone, nobody home
baby that’s what i fear
many a boy’s got your number
many boys know the lines
i’ve been away from you so long
is it just a matter of time
don’t leave me
don’t leave me this way
you told me love brings all
of the things
to fill your wants and needs
but now you’re running, playing,
all of the same
telling me that you were never
pleased
well i
never broke no promise
but i’ve
been breaking my bones
to give everything in the
world to you
baby what’s going wrong
don’t leave me
don’t leave me this way
yeah my baby’s been gone for
a long time
i said ah no ah no ah no baby
don’t leave me this way
Rhythm of the Heart (brewer)
he was a lunatic
he didn’t have a plea
they locked him in the closet
threw away the key
she thought he could be saved
from the damage done
from the day they introduced
her
he could hurt no one
no one knows the rhythm
no one knows the rhythm
no one knows the rhythm of
the heart
they were inseparable
they were all they had
he was gifted in the mirror
she was diamond clad
he went off to work
and his head was clear
when he got home late that evening
she had disappeared
no one knows the rhythm
no one knows the rhythm
no one knows the rhythm of
the heart
she was insatiable
she had all the best
her latest motion picture
was a big success
all the critics cheered
but she was not around
when the ravers
broke the door in
she could not be found
no one knows the rhythm
no one knows the rhythm
no one knows the rhythm of
the heart
Cool Boy (rob fahey)
she’s kinda
sexy and she’s kinda cool
and you can bet she ain’t nobody’s fool
he did her wrong so she just
shut him off
and now she’s looking for some
better stuff
she’s looking for a cool boy
and i
might be the one
i kinda like the way she combs
her hair
and underneath of that there’s
something there
and if you sneak a look under
those glasses
i bet she’s looking out for higher classes
she’s looking for a cool boy
and i
might be the one
i try i try i try
i bet she’s ready for some love that’ll stick
i better make my move and make it quick
cool boy
she’s looking for a cool boy
and i
might be the one
Lose You (brewer/ fahey)
i’ve tried so long to take it all too lightly
i’m well aware of all the things unsaid
and everytime
you come around
you go to my head
you never told me you could
stay forever
i never said that i would wait
around
but now and then i’ve got to face this feeling i’ve
found
i don’t wanna lose you
no one ever said you
belonged to me
i don’t wanna lose you
i can’t keep myself from holding on
every day i’m
with you fills my senses
every night without you chills
my bones
every single thing you do won’t
leave me alone
i try to run away but there’s no safety
i run so hard but i just get
run down
and there’s nowhere for me
to hide without you around
i don’t wanna lose you
no one ever said you belonged
to me
i don’t wanna lose you
i can’t keep myself from holding on
i don’t wanna lose you
i don’t wanna lose you
i don’t wanna lose you
i’m all choked up and i don’t
know why
i hear your voice and i see
your eyes
i get unnerved but it’s you i
lack
you get too far and i want you back
it’s just a phase that i’m going through
another phrase that tells me
i don’t wanna lose you
i don’t wanna lose you
i don’t wanna
i don’t wanna lose you
no one ever said you belonged
to me
i don’t wanna lose you
i can’t keep myself from holding on
i don’t wanna lose you
i don’t wanna lose you
i don’t wanna lose you
Raised On The Radio (rob fahey)
1956
when the dj
broke to play us something new
hearts broke hearts skipped
and we knew that this was made
for me and you
when he told us he was lonely
he was speaking from the heart
i was much too young to know him
but i
knew it was the start
i was raised on the radio
raised on the radio
just an all american boy
who found his favorite toy
michelle, lady jane
yeah, i
fell in love with girls i never met
i learned to play guitar
while the other boys where busy
learning math
but all the simplest equations
never add up very far
when all my musical persuations
kept me reaching for the stars
raised on the radio
just an all american boy
i got my favorite toy
remembering when times were bad
love is all we need and love
was all we had
1964
when the dj
broke to play us something new
Ready For Romance (rob fahey)
i’ve got a feeling
from my head down to my toes
it’s so appealing
that i
intend to let to let you know
i’ve got a reason
to be escaping from my fear
a change of season
i feel the air is gonna clear
maybe in another day
or maybe in another night
i’m gonna turn another page
and see it in another light
maybe in another song
maybe just another glance
baby i
can’t wait too long
i’m gonna take another chance
i’m ready for romance
i’ve got your number
i heard you left it on my wall
while i
was under
a cloud of tears that came
to fall
it fell on me babe
i thought the end was drawing near
but now i’m
free babe
i see the air begin to clear
maybe in another day
or maybe in another night
i’m gonna turn another page
and see it in another light
maybe in another song
maybe just another glance
baby i
can’t wait too long
i’m gonna take another chance
i’m ready for romance
No Regular Woman (rob fahey)
I
watch her on the dance floor nearly every night
and all the other girls just
disappear
caught up in a fantasy
I
call for her to come to me
but she never hears
no regular woman
she no regular girl
that lady got something
something put this boy in whirl
her body move as graceful as
the swallow fly
her eyes they have the sparkle
of the star
I
want to take her back with me
show her to my family and my
shangrila
last night I dreamed about her
as a butterfly
she bring the gentle warm of
the spring
she shared my humble offerings
she give me love then spread
her wings
and fly away
sure as spring comes summer
I
must bring my love here
sure as love surrounds her
I
have found
no regular woman
Second Hand (rob fahey)
the room was close
with smoke pollution
your first hello
put me in revolution
grew more intense
with every minute
was no offense
but I liked your digits
your girlfriend said
that I've got a head
harder than a kitchen sink
well my band is tough
but I'm so wound up
don't leave me on the blink
I'm
second hand
but that don't matter
I
love your friend
but you’re the one I'm after
you put me down
but I can take a lickin'
I'm
second hand
and I keep on tickin'
you couldn't believe that I
was so insistant
you treated me cruel but I
was shock resistant
you gave me the slip with no
reservation
now I'm slippin'
it back with an explanation
your friend and me shared a
cup of tea
but that was merely just a
fling
but if you think I'm harm
you better set your alarm
and keep a close watch on the
thing
Physical Attraction (brewer)
maybe we passed in a dimly lit
hall
it could be years ago and
i cannot recall
but there’s something in the
air
trying to cut my breath
as we stand here now
i’m missing your point but i’m
catching your scent
some swedish
rolls or some condiment
it’s a natural response
the bells ring and we salivate
and we’re dying for a taste
in our corners face to face
it’s a physical attraction
physical attraction
physical attraction
oh oh
oh oh oh
maybe we shared a revolving door
in a savings bank or a department
store
you were taking things back
i was coming for more when the thunder rolled
and maybe we touched on a subway
train
your voice was different but
your face was the same
it went on and on in my memory
as you swept by by
and we’re dying for a chance
for this spontaneous romance
it’s a physical attraction
physical attraction
physical attraction
oh oh
oh oh oh
maybe we passed in a dimly lit
hall
it could be years ago and
i cannot recall
but there’s something in the
air
trying to cut my breath
as we stand here now
it’s a physical attraction
physical attraction
physical attraction
it’s a physical attraction
physical attraction
physical attraction
oh oh
oh oh oh
Wraparound
(brewer)
just tell me when you think
you’re in love
i’ve had all i can take
seems like every time i’m involved
ends up in heartache
i
need a wraparound, ooh
just a wraparound, oh
i wanna wraparound someone
tonight
she’s talking soft on my telephone
and then i
start to melt
why is it everytime i hang on
i gotta hang myself?
i need a wraparound, ooh
just a wraparound, oh
i wanna wraparound someone
tonight
i must submit to jaded memories
as an alternative to enemies
but something hits me
makes me lose my grip everytime
knocks me off the line
you’re coming on to me in my car
my engine starts to roar
why do i
have to listen to this?
you’re such a social bore
i need a wraparound, ooh
just a wraparound, oh
i wanna wraparound someone
tonight

but you gotta

Love or Suicide (brewer)
ah she wants to be friends
but her kind of friends
put me in a frenzy
so i
try to resist
but each time we kiss
ooh how she sends me
