Honey A

[No lyrics]

. . .


Honey bee, honey bee
Our hearts sing sympathy
Such a sweet melody
Honey bee, honey bee

How do I count all the ways that you understand
Multiply the stars in the sky by the grains of sand
Satisfy me
Your love‘s better than I ever planned
Tantalise me honey bee
I'm at your command
Planet keep on turnin'
Planet keep on goin' round

Illegal marijuana
Better give that man a cigar
Let's go hear him play the guitar
Come and take a ride in my car

Well, well I say, honey bee
I'm your main devotee
Let's establish a colony
Honey bee
Walk beside me
I'm in heaven when I hold your hand

Hypnotise me just Alice in a Wonderland
Well, I say, honey bee
You're my great fantasy
I love your company
Be with me in this tree
Planet keep on turnin'
Planet keep on goin' round

. . .


You ought to get those kind of kisses patented
You'd make an awful lot of money
I'll get you covered by American Express
You won't go anywhere without me

There's no escape you're mine hands off
Mine to have and mine to hold
I'll reserve you for my own
Credit you to my account
You're mine hands off

. . .


You ought to know by now

Baby when our hearts awoke
Think of all the rules we broke
In the name of love we hoped
Little did we know
Darling all the time we spent
Ignoring all the consequences
And hiding from big evidence
Hoping things would change

But the yearning grew like the loneliness of a castaway
To be near to you was the only thing in my heart each day
Keeping me alive till your rescue came
Honey you mean everything to me

You ought to know by now
Love means everything
You ought to know by now
Only love can bring happiness

Wishful thinking spent in vain
What to loose and what to gain
All the guilt and all the pain
Seemed to come away
And baby when our hearts awoke
Think of all the rules we broke
In the name of love we spoke
Little did we know

But the hope was there like a ray of sun on a cloudy day
Any change from impossibility to the only way
Love can conquer all and it's here to stay
Honey you mean everything to me

You ought to know by now
Love means everything
You ought to know by now
Only love can bring happiness
You ought to know by now
Love means everything
You ought to know by now
Only love can bring happiness
You ought to know by now

You ought to know by now

You ought to know by now

You ought to know by now

Nobody But You

(chorus)
I don't want nobody but you
I don't want nobody but you
No one else on Earth will do

You help me find my feet
You make me lose my head
You help me make ends meet
You keep me warm in bed
You're too good to believe
You make me jam and bread

(repeat chorus)

You give me good advice
You keep me on my toes
You help me pick my ties
But I pick my own nose
You run my bubble bath
Accept when I propose

(repeat chorus)

You charge the atmosphere
You are the sexiest
You always lend an ear
You help me get undressed
You give me room to breathe
You keep me well abreast
You help me find my feet
You make me lose my head
You never lose the beat
You keep me warm in bed

. . .


If we could turn back time
If we could go back to the beginning
If we could rewind the clock
We could have timed it down to the minute

We had some words today
That blew the clouds away
They were long overdue
And now the air is clear
About the whole affair
Apologies from me to you

Time love and love takes time
If you deny love you'll lose your mind
Just relax then you'll get it
'Cause your heart knows what's in it
And what goes around comes around
And don't you forget it

If we could turn back time
If we could go back to the beginning
Love is all compromise
But with some patience you'll find you're winning

It strikes like lightning
And changes everything
Your whole point of view

Opens all kind of doors
So now my heart is yours
With compliments from me to you

You can't rush it
It takes tender, loving care
If you're gonna make it there

Through the ups and downs
You'll get turned around oh
But I'll hang in there with you

Love takes time and it's worth learning
Love takes time to grow my darling

. . .


Touch down in azure water sun stays out all day
Poincianas coral beach outside our room
Your kisses leave me speechless ten thousand details
Flicker flash across your features like a gold perfume
Soft winds come fill our sails dolphins set our course
Gliding over blue champagne sailing the “Sea Horse�?
Feel the sun caress your skin passions rise like flame
Setting sun crescendos now
Palm-marina water-taxi harbour-view café
Tinkling glasses candlelight a crowded room
To the beat of samba nova lovers gently sway
Twilight passes cool sea breezes play our favourite tune
Disappearing evening clouds canopy of stars
Mirrored in the silver bay you are in my arms
Smooth as satin is the night warm and sweet your breath
I can hear your melting heart

. . .


You Blow Me Away
Robert Palmer

I was all at sea
'til you rescued me
Saw through my charade
Said don't be afraid

My life was just pretence
You won my confidence
And came to my defence
You blow me away

Saw through my masquerade
You made me unafraid
Broke down my barricade
You blow me away

I didn't have a clue
'til I looked at you
When I saw your face
It all fell into place

Here in your arms
What can I say
All of your charms
Blow me away

You must have been aware
That this here love affair
Could take us anywhere
You blow me away

You washed my pain away
I saw the light of day
You helped me find a way
You blow me away

. . .


Close to the edge
Close to the edge

Promise me no lies
Promise me

Passions surging
Life emerging
Pressure ceases
Missing pieces

Break through
Break free
I'm telling you
Quit pushing me

Close to the edge ...

Love is waiting
Incubating

. . .


Close to the edge
Close to the edge

Promise me no lies
Promise me

Passions surging
Life emerging
Pressure ceases
Missing pieces

Break through
Break free
I'm telling you
Quit pushing me

Close to the edge ...

Love is waiting
Incubating

. . .


You're in a corner everywhere you turn,
You know you're headed for the planet of burn,
But the words get stuck on tip of your tongue,
She's the real thing but knew it all along,
She's just the girl, she's just girl
The girl you want
She sings from somewhere you can't see
She sits in the top of a greenhouse tree
She sends out an aroma of undefined love
It drifts on down in a mist from above
She's just the girl, She's just the girl
The girl you want
Look at you (with) your mouth watering
Look at you (with) your mind spinning
Why don't you just admit it's all over
She's just teh girl you want
She's just the girl, she's just the girl
The girl you want
She's just the girl, she's just the girl
The girl you want
You're in a corner everywhere you turn,
You know you're headed for the planet of burn,
But the words get stuck on tip of your tongue,
She's the real thing but knew it all along,
She's just the girl, she's just the girl
The girl you want
She's just the girl, she's just the girl
She's just the girl, she's just the girl
The girl you want

. . .


Wham bam boogie, all night long
Come on, move it, bang that gong
You can't lose it, find the one
Bass line screws it down, platinum

You're on overdrive and it's justified
E-F-Gee whizz, you decide
You're more qualified
Let's push to the head of the cue

I've got my binoculars, wham bam boogie
We left our scruples in the middle of the road
And it's bad for us to leave them there


Money tends to do that to you
Kick'em down, never let them say that, no, no

Wham bam boogie, all night long
Stompin' music, rock that song
Hey, let's improvise
We might win a prize
We need exercise, let's get paralysed

Wham bam boogie, groove on stun
Stompin' music, rock that song
Wham bam boogie, all night long
Can't refuse it, it's too much fun

. . .


Don't move...

Just one false move and you're dead meat
You know you're running out of luck
You won't admit it when you're beat
You see me comin' better duck

Big trouble, I'll lay you to waste
Big trouble, gonna pick a bone with you
Big trouble, gonna drop the bomb, baby
Big trouble, runnin' out of patience
Big trouble, eat away at your nervous system

You know I've got you in my sights
Saw your emotions run amok
Had an anxiety attack
You were surprised when panic struck

No ammunition, a war of nerves
I'll steal your thunder
War of attrition, watch you submerge


You're goin' under
You need it, you lose it, you love it, you gotta have it

I'm gonna find your breaking point
You like to practice self-deceit
I'll knock your nose right out of joint
The demolition of your whole world
War of attrition

Big trouble, this is the right place
Big trouble, come on, do your worst
Big trouble, rub me up the wrong way
Big trouble, punch a hole in your argument

I see you're spoiling for a fight
I'll pick you off and rub you out
All your big talk is obsolete
No one to hear you scream and shout
I'll give you fire, a war of nerves
War of attrition, the demolition of your whole world
I'll steal your thunder

. . .
