Hot town summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirt and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All around people looking half dead
Walking on the sidewalk hotter than a match headBut at night it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come on, come on and dance all night
Despite the heat it will be alright
And babe, don't you know it's a pity
The days can't be like the night
In the summer in the city
In the summer in the cityCool town, evening in the city
Dressed so fine and looking so pritty
Cool cat lookin for a kitty
Gonna look in every corner of the city
Till I'm weezin like a bus stop
Running up the stairs gonna meet ya on the roof topBut at night it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come on, come on lets dance all night
Despite the heat it will be alright
And babe, don't you know it's a pity
The days can't be like the night
In the summer in the city
In the summer in the citySolo
But at night it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come on, come on lets dance all night
Despite the heatit will be alright
And babe don't you know it's a pity
The days can't be like the night
In the summer in the city
In the summer in the cityHot town summer in the city
Say something, say something
Could you be loved and be loved
Could you be loved and be lovedDon't let them fool you
Or even try to school you...oh no
We've got a mind of our own
So go to hell if what you're thinking is not right
Love would never leave us alone
In the darkness there must come out to lightCould you be loved and be loved
Could you be loved and be lovedThe road of life is rocky
And you may stumble too
So while you point your fingers
Someone else is judging you
Love your brother manCould you be.... Could you be...could you be loved
Could you be.... Could you be lovedDon't let them change you
Or even rearrange you ..oh no
We've got a live to live
They say only only only
The fittest of the fittest shall survive
Stay aliveCould you be loved and be loved
Could you be loved and be lovedAin't gonna miss your water
Until your well runs dry
No matter how you treat him the man will never be satisfiedCould you be.... Could you be...could you be loved
Could you be.... Could you be loved
Could you be.... Could you be...could you be loved
Could you be.... Could you be lovedSay something, say something
Could you be.... Could you be...could you be loved
Could you be.... Could you be loved
Could you be.... Could you be...could you be loved
Could you be.... Could you be lovedSomewhere along the way

All the same old songs
Why do you sing
With the melody
Cause down on the street
Somethings goin' on
There's a new beat
And a brand new songHe said
In my life, there was so much anger
Still I have no regrets
Just like you, I was such a rebel
So dance your own dance, and never forgetN'oubliez jamais
I heard my father say
Every generation has it's way
A need to disobey
N'oubliez jamais
It's in your destiny
A need to disagree
When rules get in the way
N'oubliez jamaisMamma, why do you dance
To the same old songs
Why do you sing
Only the harmony
Down on the street
Something's goin' on
There's a new beat
And a brand new songShe said
In my heart theres a young girls passion
For a life long duet
Someday soon
Someone's smile will haunt you
So sing your own song and never forgetN'oubliez jamais
I heard my father say
Every generation has it's way
A need to disobey
N'oubliez jamais
It's in your destiny
A need to disagree
When rules get in the way
N'oubliez jamaisWhat is this game
Searching for love or fame, it's all the same
One of these days you say that love will be the cure
I'm not sureN'oubliez jamais
I heard my father say
Every generation has it's way
A need to disobey
N'oubliez jamais

Cannot speak so easily
From a whisper start
To have a little faith in meAnd when your back's against the wall
Just turn around and you will see
I will catch your fall

Expecting nothing in return
Just for you to have a little faith in me
You know time, time is our friend
I will hold you up, I will hold you up
Your love gives me strength enoughHave a little faith in me
What Becomes Of The Broken Hearted
As I walk this land of broken dreams
I have visions of many things
Happiness is just an illusion filled
With sadness and confusionWhat becomes of the broken hearted
Who have love that's now departed
I know iv'e got to find
Some kind of piece of mindRoots of love grow all around
But for me they come tumbling down
Every day heart aches grow a little stronger
I can't stand this pain much longerWalk in shadows searching for light cold
And alone no comfort in sight hoping
And praying for someone to care
Always moving but going no whereWhat becomes of the broken hearted
Who have love that's now departed
I know iv'e got to find
Some kind of piece of mindI'm searching though I don't succeed
But someones love leaves a growing need
Always lost theres no place for beginning
All that’s left is an unhappy endingWhat becomes of the broken hearted
Who have love that's now departed
I know iv'e got to find
Some kind of piece of mindBaby you understand me now
If sometimes I get a little mad
don't you know no one alive
can always be an angel
when things goes wrong
your bound to see some bad
Oh but I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
Oh lord , please don't let me be misunderstood
you know sometimes, I'm so carefree
with a joy that’s hard to hide
then sometimes again it seems
all I have is worry
then your bound to see the other side
Oh but I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
Oh lord , please don't let me be misunderstood
If I seem edgy I want you to know
I didn't mean to take it out on you
life has it's problems and I've got my share
but thats one thing I never ment to do
cause I love you
Now baby I'm just human
got my faults like anyone else
but sometimes I find myself
all alone regreting
all the foolish things that I have done
Oh but I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
Oh lord , please don't let me be misunderstoodWoman of the country now that I found you
Longing for your soft and fertile delta
And I wisper sighs to satisfy your longing
For the warm and tender shelter of your body
Oh delta ladyYour mine, yes your mine delta lady
Your mine, be all mine
Delta ladyPlease don't ask how many times I found you
Standing wet and naked in the garden
And I think of the days
And the different ways I held you
We were closely touching, yes our heart was beatingYour mine, yes your mine delta lady
Your mine, be all mine
Delta ladyOh when I'm home again in england
I think of you my love
Cause, I love you, loveThere are concrete mountains in the city
And pretty city women live inside them
Oh but yet it seems the city scene is lacking
I'm so glad your waiting for me in the countryYour mine, yes your mine delta lady
Your mine, be all mine
Delta ladyYou are so beautiful to me
You are so beautiful to me
Can't you see
Your everything I hoped for
Your everything I need
You are so beautiful to meSuch joy and happiness you bring
Such joy and happiness you bring
Like a dream
A guiding light that shines in the night
Heavens gift to me
You are so beautiful to meThat’s All I Need To Know (Live)
Maybe I have
No grounds to feel jealous
But I'm just a guy
Who's got to tell it like it is
I must be sure of your love
On that I existIs there someone
To whose heart you belong
Just tell me now
Darling I will be gone
But if he is stealing from me
Then that would be wrongI stand my ground
Against any man
Who would try to take you from my arms
If you know me at all
You know I don't let go
As long as you want me
That's all I need to knowI've never been
What they call the fighting kind
But I'm a man
Who'll defend what is mine
I've built my world around youChorus
SoloIf you know me at all
You know I don't let go
As long as you want me
That's all I need to know
I don't back down
When I've got my feet on the ground
I'm a peace loving man
But I'll take the blows
As long as you want me
That's all I need to know
That's all I need to know
That's all I need to knowI've kept it inside much to long
There's no relief
Carry it around just like a stone
Too heavy for meI had paid the price
Of standing on the outside looking inIt's time to let the healing begin
A boy is strung out he's going through hell
His mother weeps
His spirit is broken and there's nothing left
Just a terrible needAnd the days are marked by the heaviness of the heart
It never mends
Until the healing beginsAnd the tension prowls the streets like and animal
The people stay behind their locks and chains
It's a shame
When so many are trying their best to live as one
And the smoke form the fires covers the sunA young girl is lying in the dirt
Her dreams ended there
Caught in the crossfire on somebody's turf
Hatred in the airIt's a voice that never sings
A winter without the spring
It never ends
It's time to let the healing begin
It's time to let the healing beginA little bit of hope, gone to far
A little bit of pain , leaves a scar
You got yours, I've got yoursA little bit of dream, disappears
When a word like love
Offers so much fear
I've got mine, you've got mineThe lines all drawn, the time is now
Love will show us howTonight, we'll cross that great divide
No turning back
Tonight, we'll let our hearts decide
Our souls will follow
With a little bit of luck
We'll take it step by step
If we never give it up
We'll we might get there yetTonight, we'll let our hearts decide
We'll cross that great divideWhen we lose our trust
Can we keep our faith
When it's up to us just to dream this way
I've got mine you've got mine
The lines all drawn, and the time is now
Love will show us howTonight, we'll cross that great divide
No turning back
Tonight, we'll let our hearts decide
Our souls will follow
With a little bit of luck
We'll take it step by step
If we never give it up
Well, we might get there yet
Tonight we'll let our hearts decide
We'll cross that great divideNight Calls
Album: Night Calls (1992)The night gang started working
With a mile of southern road
As I watched
I got to thinking
You ain't never coming home
I looked out of nowhere
There was nobody at all
To get me help
To get through to youI'm here making night calls
Night calls
Making night calls
Night calls
Making night calls
I gaveI tried too hard to reach you
But you must be moving fast
All my hopes about the future
Will just live on
Into the past
You know that it ain't easy
And the twilight starts to fade
Shouldn't you
The chill of the morning
Thinking of the plans we madeOh, night calls
Making night calls
Let it ring
The night calls
Making night calls
Oh, night calls
Give up those night callsDon't You Love Me Anymore
Album: Cocker (1986)Oh oh
I thought I'd see you smile
When I walked in the door
Thought those arms of yours would be open wide
The way they were before
Why do you look at me
Like I'm some stranger now
Why do you pull away
When you used to hold me so tightDon't you love me anymore
Have your learned to live your life without me
Don't you love me, anymore
When did the fire go out
Where did the feeling go
Did it slip away when I wasn't there
Baby now I've come home
I thought you'd want me babe
I was so sure you'd ask me to to stay
I thought you'd need this too
Guess it didn't work out that wayDon't you love me anymore
Have you learned to live your life without me
Don't you love me anymore
Darling
When did the fire go out
Where did the feeling go
Why do you pull away
When you used to hold me so close baby
Don't you love me anymore
Have your learned to live your life without me
Don't you love me anymore
Don't you love me anymore
Have your learned to live your life without meWhen The Night Comes
Album: One Night Of Sin (1989)Hold on
I'll be back for you
It won't be long
But for now there's something else
That's calling me
So take me down a lonesome road
Point me east and let me go
That suitcase weighs me down
With memoriesI just wanna be the one you run to
I just wanna be the one you come to
I just wanna be there for someone
When the night comes
Let's put all the cares behind us
And go where they'll never find us
I just wanna be there beside you
When the night comes
When the night comesTwo spirits in the night
That can leave before the morning light
When there's nothing left to lose
And nothing left to fear
So meet me on the edge of town
Won't keep you waiting I'll be 'round
Then you and I
We'll just roll right out of hereI just wanna be the one you run to
I just wanna be the one you come to
I just wanna be there for someone
When the night comes
Let's put all the cares behind us
And go where they'll never find us
I just wanna be there beside you
When the night comes
When the night comesI know there'll be a time for you and I
Just take my hand and run away
Think of all the pieces of the shattered dream
We're gonna make it out some day
We'll be coming back
Coming back to stay
When the night comesI wanna be the one you run to
When the night comes
To be the one you'd come to
I wanna be the one you run to
Ooh
I just wanna be the one you run to
Wanna be the one you come to
I just wanna be there for someone
When the night comes
Let's put all the cares behind us
And go where they'll never find us
I just wanna be there beside you
When the night comes
When the night comes
Ah ah when the night comes
When the night rolls down
Ah ah when the night comes
I wanna be with you
Ah ah when the night comes
Oh ah when the night comes in
Ah ah oh
Ah ah when the night comes
When the night comes
Ah ah when the night comes
I wanna be right by your side
Ah ah when the night comes
Yes baby
Ah ah oh
Don't do that to me woman
Ah ah oh
Ever stayed when the night time gets in here
Ah ah when the night comes
I wanna rise and up in the
When the night comes
Ah ah when the night comes
Ah ah oh
