Letra
I stood outside the Lucky Star Staring at the flashing sign It read: come on in and watch young Scarlet's body come alive Let her dance for you and catch your spell You'll swear you can believe her Be careful not to catch the scarlet fever. So I paid my fare and walked down front And found an empty chair As I settled in young scarlet took the ribbons from her hair The moves her body made while the music played Were the likes I've never seen And she became the envy of my dreams. One by one her teasing movements Brought the crowd out of their seats And all at once young scarlet Danced straight up in front of me From the moment that her eyes found mine I've never been the same Scarlet locked another heart upon her chain. Now I get scarlet fever every time I see her But she's a night club teaser Not paid to notice me Yes, I get scarlet fever If she knew how much I need her She'd place her hand in my hand And dance away with me. She looked 25 but I was told That she was just 16 She had a way of making a man believe She danced for only him As she tantalized I fantasized And felt the sound of my heart beat And every night I'd dream She'd fall in love with me. Then one night while driving in My eyes begun to tear 'cos the sign outside the Lucky Star said: scarlet isn't here She'd left that day to find a life Of bigger and better things And she left behind my chain of broken dreams. But still get scarlet fever In my mind I still see her Out there dancing somewhere To another fool like me. Yes, I get... - Farther I Go3:27
Letra
I took a boat, I took a plane Halfway around the world on a train New York to Orleans, Japan to Tibet But the farther I go, the closer you get And I can't get you out of my mind All these years to forget, all these miles in jet But the farther I go, the closer you get. I took some dreams, I can't damp some dust I damned your name, I cried and I cursed I run to the ends of the earth to forget But the farther I go, the closer you get. I found a friend, I took her home I took her upstairs, disconnected the phone We got warmer and warmer Been blazing hot But the farther we went, the closer you got And I can even make love anymore. All these years to forget... - No Dreams3:25
Letra
No one could ever say that I didn't try To say what once was mine Oh girl, you once were my whole life But I don't think time will ever let love be The master of our destiny Oh, if that's the way it must be. Then there'll be no dreams for me tonight No more grass schemes to try to make you mine 'Cause no dreams are gonna change the way you feel Guess I'll just go somewhere, and hide away and heal. Maybe some day you'll have a second thought About the love that we just lost Gotta hope you do But baby tonight, she'll see and let you go Get used to being on my own Oh girl, if you really should, really should. Then there's no dreams for me tonight No more grass schemes to try to make you mine 'Cause no dreams are gonna change the way you feel Guess I'll just go somewhere, and hide away and heal. I could tell you the meaning That your heart stopped being in it It's too late for dreams No matter how magic they may be 'Cause no dreams... - Bad Enough3:14
- All My Life3:49
Letra
Are you sure I haven't loved you somewhere before In another time, another place, on some distant shore? You know me so well, better than I know myself. And you'll love me tonight Like you've loved me all my life, all my life And with the touch of your hand You took me farther than I've never been You'll love me like, you've loved me all my life. Love like we made could have taken a lifetime to find But you found the way to my heart in a moment of time You know how to care just like you've always been there. And you'll love me tonight Like you've loved me all my life, all my life... - How Long3:51
Letra
How long 'till I touch you 'Til I hold you, 'till I see you again 'Cause I've been searchin' forever And forever, on me you can depend. I've been waitin' for a girl like you One that I can call my own Tell me if this dream of mine will come true Girl, I'd like to know, I'd like to know. How long Before you let me know you Before you let me show you All I have in my world. Cause you are my inspiration Can't you see that I need you Honey, I wanna start. Let me show you, girl How good love can be With someone who love you so Tell me what it takes to win your sweet love Girl, I'd really like to know. 'Cause I've been searchin' forever And forever, on me you can depend... - Love, Love, Love3:28
- What I Learned From Loving You3:50
Letra
Sometimes I still think of you Love that's gone by and the things I didn't do Time heals hearts so they all say Passing of years slowly pulls the pain away There's still a little tenderness left in everything I do It's what I learned from loving you Well I had too much to learn to hold on to someone like you And it took losing you to make me see the woman you needed me to be Times have changed I have changed too Even my eyes turned a deeper shade of blue Guess it's all that crying they went through It's what I learned from lovin' you Well I had too much to learn... I don't cry though we're apart And someday soon someone else will need this heart And the next time I'm gonna know when a love is true It's what I learned from loving you It's what I learned from lovin' you It's what I learned from lovin' you It's what I learned from lovin' you - You Are So Beautiful2:50
Letra
