Bananarama Album

Its like a magic
I've got to have it
Whatever lies out of reach of me
And to despise it
Just magnifies it
Can't obliterate the need

You're bad news disguised
Dressed and painted with lies
But I just can't see
When truth is concealed
How the danger appeals
But my conscience sees

I heard it from the preacher man
He said leave that boy alone
He's no good for you
I heard it from the preacher man
He said heaven must have sent you
But the devil's gonna get you
He's gonna do it for you

You're like a black cat
Who always knows that
It's life is a mystery
You mesmerise me
And then you hypnotise me
'Til obsession devours me

You're silky words soothe me
As they move me
To ecstasy
And just as I'm falling
I hear a voice calling
Don't believe

I heard it from the preacher man
He said leave that boy alone
He's no good for you
I heard it from the preacher man
He said heaven must have sent you
But the devil's gonna get you
He's gonna do it for you

You're bad news disguised
Dressed and painted with lies
But I just can't see
When truth is concealed
How the danger appeals
But my conscience sees

I heard it from the preacher man
He said leave that boy alone
He's no good for you
I heard it from the preacher man
He said heaven must have sent you
But the devil's gonna get you
He's gonna do it for you

Down around the corner
Half a mile from here
See them long trains run
And you watch them disappear

Without love, where would you be now
Without love

You know I saw miss Lucy
Down along the tracks
She lost her home and her family
And she won't be coming back

Without love, where would you be right now
Without love

Well the lilino is central
On the southern central freight
Gotta keep on pushing mama
You know they're running late

Without love, where would you be now
Without love

Well the pistons keep on turning
And the wheels go round and round
And the steel rails are cold and hard
For the miles that they go down

Without love, where would you be now
Without love

Baby baby baby baby babe
Oh won't you move it down
I gotta keep on moving
Gotta keep on moving

Angel divine
With you by my side
I can do anything I want to
I'll sacrifice
For you I'd lay down my life
'Cause I was alone without you

We all need somebody
You know I need somebody
No one has to feel alone
We all need some love
You know I need your love
To break these chains around my soul

Only your love
Can free me
Only your love
Can ease me
Only your love
I need it
Only your love
Never let me go
Let me go
Never let me go
Let me go
Never let me go
Let me go
Never let me go
Let me go

Heat of the flame
That burns in your name
Got to got to got to believe it
Angel of love
Descend from above
Come on and shine your light on me

We all need somebody
You know I need somebody
No one has to feel alone
We all need some love
You know I need your love
To break these chains around my soul

Only your love
Can free me
Only your love
Can ease me
Only your love
I need it
Only your love
Never let me go
Let me go
Never let me go
Let me go
Never let me go
Let me go
Never let me go
Let me go

We all need somebody
You know I need somebody
No one has to feel alone
We all need some love
You know I need your love
To break these chains around my soul

Only your love
Can free me
Only your love
Can ease me
Only your love
I need it
Only your love
Never let me go
Let me go
Never let me go
Let me go
Never let me go
Let me go
Never let me go
Let me go

It seems forever since you went away
My life is empty and my world is grey
I keep on hoping that the sun will shine
And the pain I feel will fade away with time

I sit and wonder how do you sleep
And if my heart you still keep
I hope in time you can forgive
Tell me, what colour r the skies where u live

If I had wings I'd fly to you
I'd turn your grey skies back to crystal blue
If I had wings, I'd fly to away
Forget the hurt of yesterday, yesterday

I shot the arrow straight through your heart
But I didn't mean for us to part
Thought it was greener on the other side
I learnt my lesson, now its my turn to cry

I watch the sun set deepest red
And still remember the things we said
I hope in time, that you can forgive
Tell me, what colour r the skies where u live

If I had wings I'd fly to you
I'd turn your grey skies back to crystal blue
If I had wings, I'd fly to away
Forget the hurt of yesterday, yesterday

I sit and wonder how do you sleep
And if my heart you still keep
I hope in time you can forgive
Tell me, what colour r the skies where u live

If I had wings I'd fly to you
I'd turn your grey skies back to crystal blue
If I had wings, I'd fly to away
Forget the hurt of yesterday, yesterday

Let me take you on a trip with me
Through stormy waters to tranquillity
Where the winds of change are bittersweet
Only the strongest will succeed

Destiny has her eye on you
She's watching you
Surely the hand of fate will pull you through

But is your
Is your love
Love strong enough
Strong enough
Strong enough when things get rough for you
Strong enough
And they do
Is your
Is your love
Love strong enough
Strong enough
Strong enough for you to make it through
Strong enough

Is it strong enough?

Still waters they run so deep
And good intentions are hard to keep
When jealous voices are all around
Without a care they drag you down down down

Into the dark out of the blue
Out of the blue
Heaven is smiling down on you

But is your
Is your love
Love strong enough
Strong enough
Strong enough when things get rough for you
Strong enough
And they do
Is your
Is your love
Love strong enough
Strong enough
Strong enough for you to make it through
Strong enough

But is your
Is your love
Love strong enough
Strong enough
Strong enough when things get rough for you
Strong enough
And they do
Is your
Is your love
Love strong enough
Strong enough
Strong enough for you to make it through
Strong enough

But is your
Love strong enough
Strong enough when things get rough for you
Is your
Is your love
Love strong enough
Strong enough
Strong enough for you to make it through
Strong enough

Is it strong enough?

But is your
Is your love
Love strong enough
Strong enough
Strong enough when things get rough for you
Strong enough
And they do
Is your
Is your love
Love strong enough
Strong enough
Strong enough for you to make it through

Strong enough when things get

Go on, come with it
Hear me now
Breakout

I woke from a dream
Looked up to see your face was
Smiling down at me
The sunlight crept through
Painting my room and I just
Had to say
Primrose coloured paths lay at your feet

Keep it coming
Don't you stop loving
I'm high
Tripping on your love
Keep it coming
Don't you stop loving
I'm high
Tripping on your love

Straight out of the blue
Drowning in you it's such a
Sweet sensation and I'm
Floating above
This heavenly love and through my
Mirror I see
Magic multicoloured painted dreams

Keep it coming
Don't you stop loving
I'm high
Tripping on your love
Keep it coming
Don't you stop loving
I'm high
Tripping on your love

Trip on my love
Trip on my love
Trip on my love
Trip on my love
Dance on the mike one day with this drama
Ttripping on my love with the Bananarama

Primrose coloured paths lay at your feet

Keep it coming
Don't you stop loving
I'm high
Tripping on your love
Keep it coming
Don't you stop loving
I'm high
Tripping on your love

Keep it coming
Don't you stop loving
I'm high
Tripping on your love
Keep it coming
Don't you stop loving
I'm high
Tripping on your love

Keep it coming
Don't you stop loving
I'm high
Tripping on your love

The story's the same
Only the names have been changed
When he broke your heart you said
You'll never love again

But you'll be back for more
And you'll get hurt
Just like before

Cos' there ain't no cure for love
Didn't they tell you
There ain't no remedy
They can sell you
Joy and pain
It's the same as it ever was

Don't think it over
It's only just begun
Learning to love again
Is half the battle won

But don't believe
They'll ever be
Immunity

Cos' there ain't no cure for love
Didn't they tell you
There ain't no remedy
They can sell you
Joy and pain
It's the same as it ever was

Cos' there ain't no cure for love
Didn't they tell you
There ain't no remedy
They can sell you
Joy and pain
It's the same as it ever was

But you'll be back for more
And you'll get hurt
Just like before

Cos' there ain't no cure for love
Didn't they tell you
There ain't no remedy
They can sell you
Joy and pain
It's the same as it ever was

Good morning happy dreamer
And tell me how are you
Feet on the ground
Just called to say
'I'm in the mood'

My car's parked out on the driveway
Are you free this afternoon
'Cos it's in need of attention
So I'll drop by would that be cool

The way that you do
What you want me to do
Makes me feel alright
The way that you drum me
The way that you bass me
It's outta sight
Outta sight
Outta sight

I don't believe in wasting
My time, so I'll move fast
This dream machine
Was built to last

So cruise on down my main street
'Cos I got nothing to hide
And polish up your engine
We're heading for overdrive

The way that you do
What you want me to do
Makes me feel alright
The way that you drum me
The way that you bass me
It's outta sight
Outta sight
Outta sight

My car's parked out on the driveway
Are you free this afternoon
'Cos it's in need of attention
So I'll drop by would that be cool

The way that you do
What you want me to do
Makes me feel alright
The way that you drum me
The way that you bass me
It's outta sight
Outta sight
Outta sight

Money money money money
Any way you like it

Money money money money
Any way you like it

Fat cat
Megalomaniac
Watch his fingers snap

Fat cat
Megalomaniac
Watch his fingers snap

Feels like I've been sleeping
For a thousand years
Secrets I've been keeping
Fill an ocean with tears

But I've found the answer
To what I'm searching for
'Cos I felt so empty
Until you touched my soul

I can't let you go
Now that you're mine
I can't let you go
I want you for all time

Filled with such confusion
I was losing my mind
Fell for love's illusion
Time after time

Any my life without you
Sends a chill right through my heart
But you made love easy
From the start

I can't let you go
Now that you're mine
I can't let you go
I want you for all time

I can't let you go
Now that you're mine
I can't let you go
I want you for all time

But I've found the answer
To what I'm searching for
'Cos I felt so empty
Until you touched my soul

I can't let you go
Now that you're mine
I can't let you go
I want you for all time

I can't let you go
Now that you're mine
I can't let you go
I want you for all time

Pa pa pa la pa

It was a still hot day
I was sitting doing nothing
When I saw him cruising by
He looked kinda mean
On his devil machine
As he turned and he winked his eye

He's got tact
And he knows how to use it
I fell for him
When I first saw him cruising
I couldn't help it
It was none of my choosing
But I'm so glad
And I don't wanna lose him
He's got tact
And he knows how to use it
I fell for him
When I first saw him crusing
I couldnt seem
To get him outta my head
He stole my heart away

Later that night
I got into a fight
With a girl who said "He's mine"
I pulled him aside
Said he'd better decide
He said "Love me now its no crime"

He's got tact
And he knows how to use it
I fell for him
When I first saw him cruising
I couldn't help it
It was none of my choosing
But I'm so glad
And I don't wanna lose him
He's got tact
And he knows how to use it
I fell for him
When I first saw him crusing
I couldnt seem
To get him outta my head
He stole my heart away

He's got tact
Pa la pa la
He's got tact
Pa la pa la
Pa pa pa la pa
