Sometimes I really think
I'm going crazy in the night
When I hide down in the covers
And I won't turn out the light

I think nothing's gonna get me
But then again it might
What can I do to keep from going
Crazy in the night

I need a drink of water
But I swallow hard instead
'Cause it's hard to move a muscle
When you're frozen in your bed

If I could make it to the phone
Before I die of fright
What can I do to keep from going
Crazy in the night

Sometimes she really thinks
She's going crazy in the night
When she hides down in the covers
And she won't turn on the light
She says nothing's gonna get to her
But then again it might
What can she do to keep from going
Crazy in the night

There's a monster on my ceiling
There's a monster on the wall
There are thousands in the closet
Now they're coming down the hall

I'm so hidden they can't find me
But then again they might
What can I do to keep from going
Crazy in the night

Sometimes she really thinks
She's going crazy in the night
When she hides down in the covers
And she won't turn out the light
She says nothing's gonna get to her
But then again it might
What can she do to keep from going
Crazy in the night

And if I disappeared
Do you think they'd ever look
Would I be headlines in the paper
Or the cover of the book

Got to pull myself together
I don't want to die of fright
What can I do to keep from going
Crazy in the night

Sometimes she really thinks
She's going crazy in the night
When she hides down in the covers
And she won't turn on the light
She says nothing's gonna get to her
But then again it might
What can she do to keep from going
Crazy in the night

Doo, doo, doo, doo...
Doo, doo, doo, doo...
Crazy in the night

(Kim Carnes/Bill Cuomo/M. Paul)

I sit here looking at the stars in the sky
Making their patterns
As breezes blow by
I recognize something
As it comes into view
A face in the stars
And it's you

One kiss to last a lifetime
One kiss I remember it all
One kiss

Always the shiver
You were always the chill
On the edge of emotion
Watch what you wish for
Cause it just might come true
I wished for the moon
And got you

One kiss to last a lifetime
One kiss I remember it all
One kiss there in the moonlight
One kiss it was you
One kiss one kiss
One kiss it was one kiss

I sit here looking at the stars in the sky
Making their patterns
As breezes blow by
I recognize something
As it comes into view
A face in the stars
And it's you

One kiss to last a lifetime
One kiss I remember it all
One kiss there in the moonlight
One kiss it was you
One kiss one kiss
One kiss it was one kiss

One kiss oh one kiss one kiss
One kiss it was one kiss
One kiss one kiss
One kiss one kiss it was you
One kiss I remember you

One kiss one kiss
One kiss one kiss
One kiss one kiss

. . .


(Kim Carnes/Dave Ellingson)

You can ride in the front
Ride in the back
Or someplace in between
You can say what you mean
But not mean what you say
And wonder if it's all the same
Funny how when your life turns green
And he's right there with you
Then it all turns around
When it all comes down
Is somebody lying to you

She won't be begging for favors
Even with a broken heart
Begging for favors
Even if she's falling apart
Begging for favors
Begging for favors

Is she out of her head
Out of emotion
Cause he's not out of her mind
Headphones blaring solitary radio
She's high on the wire
Down with desire
But she's not out of design
She's just learning how things work
Learning how things work
Learning how things work

She won't be begging for favors
Even with a broken heart
Begging for favors
Even if she's falling apart
She won't be begging for favors
She won't be hanging around
Begging for favors
She won't be begging for favors

You can ride in the front
Ride in the back
Or someplace in between
You can say what you mean
But not mean what you say
And wonder if it's all the same

She won't be begging for favors
Even with a broken heart
Begging for favors
Even if she's falling apart
She won't be begging for favors
Even if she's hanging around
She won't be begging for favors
She won't be begging for favors
She won't be begging for favors

. . .


(Kim Carnes/Bill Cuomo/C. Sandford)

He goes to the mountain top everyday
She goes there to hear him play
He plays good he makes sweet
He just makes me crazy

Oh he makes the sun rise
Oh he makes the sun rise
Oh he makes the sun rise
He make he make the sun rise

Only he can make her dance
When he holds her in his hands
He make love he makes so sweet
He just makes her crazy

Oh he makes the sun rise
Oh he makes the sun rise
Oh he makes the sun rise
He make he make the sun rise
He make he make the sun rise

Life is just illusioning
Dance the part and catch the ring
She knew him in a time before
A thousand years from here and now

Golden boy with your guitar
I have loved you from afar
You play good you play so sweet
You just make me crazy

Oh he makes the sun rise
Oh he makes the sun rise
Oh he makes the sun rise
He make he make the sun rise
He make he make the sun rise

(Kim Carnes)

Imagining the rainbow
Trying to fit it in the sense of things
That might have been
Looking for the green flash
Hitting milliseconds just before the sun goes in

Bon Voyage
When you find the one
Don't let her go
Like you're letting me go

Bon Voyage
After all this time you'd think
We'd know
Why are you letting me go

A magic in the moonlight
In a bar beside the ocean
Where we used to meet
Caught up in our cicumstance
We spin out wheels just
Waiting for the string to break

I see your face in windows on the Seine
I'm still sitting in a cafe where
You said you'd wait
Like some romantic moment on the screen
You'd come running through that door
And then you're gone again

Bon Voyage
When you find the one
Don't let her go
Like you're letting me go

Bon Voyage
After all this time you'd think
We'd know
Why are you letting me go

. . .


(Kim Carnes/Bill Cuomo)

I have got this friend
She's looking all over town
And she just can't imagine why
She can't find anyone
And when she finds a good boy
She pulls the rope too tight
And then she sends them all out
Screaming in the night

854-7256
Don't pick up the phone
Pick up the phone
Don't pick up the phone
Pick up the phone
Don't let 'em know
That you're home alone
Don't pick up the phone
Pick up the phone
Don't pick up the phone
Pick up the phone
Don't let 'em know
That you're all alone

I have got this friend
She travels 'round the sun
She's just looking for the magic
She's just trying to sind someone
And when she finds a good boy
She pulls the rope too tight
And then she sends them all out
Screaming in the night

854-7256
Don't pick up the phone
Pick up the phone
Don't pick up the phone
Pick up the phone
Don't let 'em know
That you're home alone
Don't pick up the phone
Pick up the phone
Don't pick up the phone
Pick up the phone
Don't let 'em know
That you're all alone

I have got this friend
She's looking all over town
And she just can't imagine why
She can't find anyone

854-7256
Don't pick up the phone
Pick up the phone
Don't pick up the phone
Pick up the phone
Don't let 'em know
That you're home alone
Don't pick up the phone
Pick up the phone
Don't pick up the phone
Pick up the phone
Don't let 'em know
That you're all alone
Don't pick it up just because you're all alone

We learn to hold it in
Hide our hearts
Don't let it show
So scared
We forget to say
All the words when
We need them most

Rough edges take time
Understanding
Never losing our
Rough edges take time
Holding onto
And I still want you

Sometimes people change
And sometimes
I don't know you
It runs by
We stumble through
Round and round
'Cause we know our

Rough edges take time
Understanding
Never losing our
Rough edges take time
Holding onto
And I still want you

Rough edges just take time
Understanding
Never losing our
Rough edges take time
Holding on
And I still want you
And I still want you

We learn to hold it in
Hide our hearts
Don't let it show

. . .


Abadabadango, can you hear
It's the rhythm of the heart
That beats for a million years

We all have to use
Some kind of magic
Some of the time
Between the laughter and the tears
A place to draw the line

When they say that you can't
Say that you won't
So don't even give it a try

I know, hard as it seems
To take all your dreams
And give 'em just one more time

Abadabadango, can you hear
It's the rhythm of the heart
That beats for a million years

Abadabadango
Getting loud and clear
If you listen close to the voice inside
That you wait to hear

It's the time we spend awake at night
A dream that you've had before
Visions pounding in your head
That you just can't ignore

And are we sometimes blinded by
Stars get in our eyes
Break someone's heart, falling apart
Then start again one more time

Abadabadango, can you hear
It's the rhythm of the heart
That beats for a million years

Abadabadango
Getting loud and clear
If you listen close to the voice inside
That you wait to hear

Abadabadango, can you hear
It's the rhythm of the heart
That beats for a million years

Abadabadango
Getting loud and clear
If you listen close to the
Voice inside that you wait to hear

Abadabadango, can you hear
It's the rhythm of the heart
That beats for a million years

(Clive Gregson)

Sometimes it hurts so much that I wonder
What kind of spell I am under
That makes me feel this way
I know the ways of love aren't easy
You try your best to please me
But I still have to say

You drain my emotion
But I will not let it show
Cause you just want to wind me up
But you cannot stand to watch me go
Why do your reactions always seem so slow
For tonight tonight it could be touch and go

It seems that mothers words still linger
Beware the moving finger
And keep yourself quite pure
In time a man will come and he'll bring
A promise and a ring
But till that day be sure

And hide your emotion
And never let it show
Cause you just want to wind me up
But you cannot stand to watch me go
Why do your reactions always seem so slow
For tonight tonight it could be touch and go
For tonight tonight it could be touch and go

. . .


So much i had to tell you
I've saved it for you, tonight
But this thing's going nowhere
I can see it in your eyes
Even now the worst fool
Says that I'm a fool
Don't think just because I
Came here tonight
I still need you, need you
Can you hear my voice
Coming to you on the radio
Do you hear me
Do you know it's all for you
Are you listening now
Am I coming through
Do you think about me
I just want to know
It doesn't really mean anything
It's part of letting go
Fighting with the feeling
Stirring up the fire
Don't think just because I
Came here tonight
I still nee you, need you
Can you hear my voice
Coming to you on the radio
Do you hear me
Do you know it's all for you
Are you listening now
Am I coming through

. . .

I Am A Camera

[No lyrics]

. . .


Don't call him up anymore
'Cause I don't wanna hear your voice
I don' t wanna see your face
Answer his door
Make no mistake he's mine
He's mine, he's mine

He only knows how I feel
I only know what he's like
When he needs me
Oh, how he needs me
Deep in the night
Make no mistake, he's mine
He's mine, he's mine

Don't get too close when you dance
'Cause I don't wanna hear from my friends
You were out on the town
There in his arms
(There in his arms)
There in his arms
(There in his arms)

Don't include him in your dreams
(I wanna be in his dreams)
'Cause I don't wanna close my eyes
(My eyes)
I don't wanna know where he goes
Each might when he leaves

Make no mistake
(Make no mistake)
He's mine (he's mine)
He's mine (he's mine)
He is mine

Don't call him up anymore
Don't call him up anymore

. . .

Forever
