Does It Feel Right

This kind of love
Feels so rare
I hesitate to begin
Don’t know if it will work out right
But I’m gonna try
I’m coming knockin’ at your door
Does it feel right
The way we touch
Does it feel right
This time?
Does it feel right
Or is it too much
Does it feel right
This time?
I don’t know
If I can win
I’ve never been here before
I stand on your shore
But I shy from the tide
Even though I want to dive in
chorus
I’m willing to take a chance now
I’m not gonna stop this ride
chorus
I wanna live I wanna live I wanna live with you
I wanna live I wanna live I wanna live with you
I wanna live I wanna live I wanna live with you
Does it feel right….

Save Me

I got me a woman
She’s straight up and true
When she’s gone I’m lonely
She knows what to do
She’s got me on a knife edge
She keeps me up all night
She knows all my secrets
She keeps it tight
I know I’m guilty of hit and run
But I know how she likes her fun
Save me
Your love will save me
Your love enslaves me
Everyday
She’s all that I need
She’s all I can stand
I take her to high places
Then we do it again
I know I’m guilty of hit and run
But I know how she likes her fun
Save me
Your love will save me
Your love enslaves me
Every way

I wanna dance like the moon is full / Feel unbelievable
Be in the music and let the sound of it / Fill me full
The rhythm's part of me / It’s in the heart of me
Don't matter who's around / This sound is art to me
Got a boom in my step / Bass pounding in my chest
High hat perched up in my head
Gonna move all night / Till the morning light
In the sunrise gold and red
Wherever we are (We are we are we are)
Wherever we go (We know we know we know)
We don't need no dance floor (3x)
Baby tonight
We don't need no dance floor (3x)… baby tonight
It's T G I A / Thank goodness I'm alive
Don't need no Friday or Saturday / Any day is fine
It’s a joyous occasion / Sipping on elation
Put your hands up… Celebrate your love
Got a boom in my step… etc. to chorus, then
It’s a good life, feeling alright
Reach out and touch and stars
In the street light, Party all night
Doesn't matter where we are, cause
We don't need no dance floor…

You been running all over town in your Cadillac
It’s the one that I bought you for coming back
Chances are you’re gonna quit me, for some other guy
Like you did the last time, when you were spreading your lies
I need a whole lot of your love to be satisfied
I can tell by the way you flick your eyes
I can tell by the scent you wear
You’re going out to find another lover
Your confession’s good enough for me
Somebody throw me a life line I can hardly swim
Thru all this bullshit you put me in
You better stop your low down ways
And all your double talk
Why won’t you love me woman?
Why won’t you love me right?
I need a whole lot of your love to be satisfied
Some guy said he seen you
About an hour ago
Some guy had his arm around you
I didn’t wanna know
I need a whole lot of your love to be satisfied
I need a whole lot of your love
I need a whole lot of your love
I need a whole lot of your love
To be satisfied

Weapons Of Emotion

Leave your story at the door
Put your intentions where I can see them
Your eyes are filled with pain
But I've only got cold pity
A little drama queen
Just looking for attention
Love is not a game
You should be playing
Out of all this wreckage and deception
Surely we can rise above
Open, I’ve left myself open
Now that I’m broken
I can’t let you go
You’re scared and it shows
Just look at your reflection
Crocodile tears
Can’t hide what’s going on
Out of all this wreckage and illusion
Surely we can find our way
Open, I’ve left myself open
Now that I’m broken
I can’t let you go
Who will be the first to cave
And give up their position?
Hold me like a child
Tell me that you love me
And say what you mean
It’s not going to harm you
Darling darling, It’s just something I got to say
Please forgive me, don’t go away
Oh I love you, and I won’t turn my back on you, no
Darling, darling no, darling no, it’s better this way
Open, I’ve left myself open
Now that I’m broken
I can’t let you go
