I can

I can
(Ge-ge-ge-get back up again)
(Ge-ge-ge-get back up again)

You were the eyes in the face of fortune

I lost my way and I couldn't find you

Oh… oh no

We're not the first ones to be divided

Won't be the last to be reunited

Oh… oh no

It's like rain fallin' down

Drops of pain hit the ground

I can't speak, there's no sound when you're gone

(Yeah, yeah, come on)

I can, I will

I know I can untie these hands

Ge-ge-ge-get back up again

I can, I will

I know I can untie these hands

Ge-ge-ge-get back up again

I can, oh
I can

(Get back up again)

I've never lost anything quite like this

No second chances if I don't find it

No, oh no, no

You closed the door and you kept on walkin'

Left me behind and there's no more talkin'

No , oh no (Oh no)

It's like rain fallin' down

Drops of pain hit the ground

I can't speak, there's no sound when you're gone


I can, I will

I know I can untie these hands

Ge-ge-ge-get back up again


I can, I will

I know I can untie these hands

Ge-ge-ge-get back up again
(Come on)

I can, oh

I can

(Get back up again)

We're not the first ones to be divided, oh

Won't be the last to be reunited, no
(Come again, one more time)

When you're gone
(Come on)

I can, I will

I know I can untie these hands

Ge-ge-ge-get back up again

I can, I will

I know I can untie these hands

Ge-ge-ge-get back up again

I can, I can
Ge-ge-ge-get back up again

Love is...
It's been a pleasant evening
Now she says she's leaving
And he's too proud to say out loud
Oh baby, won't you stay?

Now she says she'll call him
She finds herself fallin'
When he reaches out and touches her hand
She turns to walk away
'Cause there's always a weak one
Always a strong one, who'll be the first to fall?

Love is the danger of meeting a stranger
And takin' a chance on two hearts makin' it
Love is the fire, the burnin' desire
That makes the world go round
Love is the feelin' that makes you believe in
Takin' a chance on two hearts beatin' as one
That's what love is

Still she's hesitating
Is the ice worth breaking?
Should she hold back or rush right in
Where angels fear to tread?
'Cause there's always a weak one
Always a strong one, who'll be the first to fall?

Love is the danger of meeting a stranger
And takin' a chance on two hearts makin' it
Love is the fire, the burnin' desire
That makes the world go round
Love is the feelin' that makes you believe in
Takin' a chance on two hearts beatin' as one
That's what love is, hoh...

Love is the danger of meeting a stranger
And takin' a chance on two hearts makin' it
Love is the fire, the burnin' desire
That makes the world go round
Love is the feelin' that makes you believe in
Takin' a chance

Love is the danger of meeting a stranger
And takin' a chance on two hearts makin' it
Love is the fire, the burnin' desire
That makes the world go round
Love is the feelin' that makes you believe in
Takin' a chance

Love is the danger of meeting a stranger
And takin' a chance on two hearts makin' it
Love is the fire, the burnin' desire
That makes the world go round

Love games
(You were only playin' love games)
(You were only playin' love games, baby)
(You were only playin' love games)
(You were only playin' love games, baby)

Why? (Baby, baby, why?)
Why'd you wanna break my heart, babe?
You should have told me from the start, babe
(You should have told me from the start, oh baby)
You should have let me know that you were letting go

Oh why? (Baby, baby, why?)
Why'd you wanna break my heart, babe?
When you knew that we were partin', babe
(Should have told me we were partin', baby)
Should have let me know
You should have told me so

Oh darling...

You were only playin' love games
(You were only playin' love games, baby)
You were only playin' love games
(You were only playin' love games with my heart)
You gave me sugar lovin' and it stuck like glue
And all this time you had me hooked on you
(Baby, baby)

You were only playin' love games
(You were only playin' love games, baby)
You were only makin' love pains
(You were only makin' love pains with my heart)
I was just your puppet and you know it's true
You could snap your fingers and I'd run to you
(Baby, baby)

Oh why? (Baby, baby, why?)
Why'd you wanna break my heart, babe?
You should have told me at the start, babe
(You should have told me, baby, could have told me)
When you knew all the time that you were never mine

Oh why? (Baby, baby, why?)
Why'd you wanna break my heart, babe?
When you knew that we would part, babe
(When you knew that we would part, oh baby)
That you would make me cry, that you would say goodbye

Oh darling...

You were only playin' love games
(You were only playin' love games, baby)
You were only playin' love games
(You were only playin' love games with my heart)
You gave me sugar lovin' and it stuck like glue
And all this time you had me hooked on you
(Baby, baby)

You were only playin' love games
(You were only playin' love games, baby)
You were only makin' love pains
(You were only makin' love pains with my heart)
I was just your puppet and you know it's true
You could snap your fingers and I'd run to you
(Baby, baby)

You were only playin' love games
(You were only playin' love games, baby)
You were only playin' love games
(You were only playin' love games with my heart)
You gave me sugar lovin' and it stuck like glue
And all this time you had me hooked on you

You were only playin' love games
(You were only playin' love games, baby)
You were only makin' love pains
(You were only makin' love pains with my heart)

One step further
One step further and I would have been there

Can't seem to get your attention no matter how I try
I just want you to prefer me to the other guys
So when you looked at me, you only turned away
So I walked up beside you
But I forgot all the things that I planned to say
I don't know if I tried to

I could have taken one step further
And I would have been there
You could have turned around
And hit me and I wouldn't have cared
All this time I didn't get anywhere
I could have taken one step further
And I would have been there

Ain't got the courage to speak when you're sometimes near
Well I can't seem to think of the things that a girl likes to hear
But when I saw you again, you were all alone
So I walked up beside you
But I was too shy to even ask you home
I don't know if I tried to

I could have taken one step further
And I would have been there
You could have turned around
And hit me and I wouldn't have cared
All this time I didn't get anywhere
I could have taken one step further
And I would have been there

If you read my letters or my telegrams
You'd have got around to asking me just who I am
'Cause you know I'm gonna get ya
I'm gonna get ya, I'm gonna get ya

One step further and I would have been there
You could have turned around
And hit me and I wouldn't have cared
All this time I didn't get anywhere
I could have taken one step further
And I would have been...

One step further and I would have been there
You could have turned around
And hit me and I wouldn't have cared
All this time I didn't get anywhere

One step further and I would have been there
You could have turned around
And hit me and I wouldn't have cared
All this time I didn't get anywhere
I could have taken one step further
And I would have been...

(One step further and I would have been there)
I could have tooken one step further
(One step further and I would've been there)
One step, one step

Making your mind up
You gotta speed it up
And then you gotta slow it down
'Cause if you believe that our love can hit the top
You gotta play around
But soon you will find that there comes a time
For making your mind up

You gotta turn it on
And then you gotta put it out
You gotta be sure that it's something
Everybody's gonna talk about
Before you decide that the time's arrived
For making your mind up

Don't let your indecision
Take you from behind
Trust your inner vision
Don't let others change your mind

And now you really gotta burn it up
And make another fly by night
Get a run for your money
And take a chance and it'll turn out right
But when you can see how it's gotta be
You're making your mind up

And try to look as if you don't care less
But if you wanna see some more
Bending the rules of the game
Will let you find the one you're looking for
And then you can show that you think you know
You're making your mind up

Don't let your indecision
Take you from behind
Trust your inner vision
Don't let others change your mind

And now you really gotta speed it up
And then you gotta slow it down
'Cause if you believe that our love can hit the top
You gotta play around
But soon you will find that there comes a time
For making your mind up

And now you really gotta speed it up
And then you gotta slow it down
'Cause if you believe that our love can hit the top
You gotta play around
But soon you will find that there comes a time
For making your mind up
For making your mind up
For making your mind up
For making your mind up

I'm never giving up
I don't believe in idle gossip
The jealous mind can be unfair
I hear them make their accusations
But baby, come what may
No matter what the people say

I'm never givin' up, not givin' in
If there's the slightest chance that I could win
The battle may be lost, but I can win the war
And get your lovin' back the way it was before

At times it's hard to see the changes
Or read the writing on the wall
We may become the best of strangers
But I'll keep holding on
Until I know my chance has gone

I'm never givin' up, not givin' in
If there's the slightest chance that I could win
The battle may be lost, but I can win the war
And get your lovin' back the way it was before

Never givin' up, I'm never givin' up

I'm never givin' up, not givin' in
If there's the slightest chance that I could win
The battle may be lost, but I can win the war
And get your lovin' back the way it was

I'm never givin' up, not givin' in
If there's the slightest chance that I could win
The battle may be lost, but I can win the war
And get your lovin' back the way it was before

Never givin' up, I'm never givin' up
(I'm allowed to... all I want to... need your lovin')
I'm never never givin'... never never givin'... never givin' up

My time
I've been down, down so long
But those days are gone now
I've got the will, I've earned the right
To show you it's my time tonight

It's my time, it's my time
My moment, I'm not gonna let go of it
My time, it's my time
And I'll stand proud
There's nothing I'm afraid of
I'll show you what I'm made of
Show you all it's my time now

I'll break through, I've made my move
And my faith is strong now
I've got the heart to reach the heights
To show you it's my time tonight

It's my time, it's my time
My moment, I'm not gonna let go of it
My time, it's my time
And I'll stand proud
There's nothing I'm afraid of
I'll show you what I'm made of
Show you all it's my time now

I've got the will, I've earned the right
Tonight, tonight

It's my time, it's my time
My moment, I'm not gonna let go of it
My time, it's my time
And I'll stand proud
There's nothing I'm afraid of
I'll show you what I'm made of
Show you all it's my time now

I'll show you all it's my time now
