Whatever It Takes
Call me at midnight
Tell me you're ready to fly to the moon
We'll dance in the moonlight
I'll make sure the stars are shining
Baby just for you
That's what I’ll do
Chorus
To make you happy baby
I'll do whatever it takes
To see you smiling baby
I'll do whatever it takes
To hear your laughter darling
I'll do whatever it takes
Whatever it takes
I'll look for a streetlight
Set up a stage maybe hire a crew
I'll conquer my stage fright
And put on a play baby
Starring well you know who
That's what I’ll do
Chorus
I'll learn how to tango
And play the piano
I'll do it so you know
That I love you
Chorus
Chorus (Repeat)

Cross Roads and Ferris Wheels
Haunted by the memories
Frozen on a summer breeze
And dancing on the Devil’s wings
Are the things we just can’t have
The things we want so bad
Chorus
Cross roads and Ferris wheels
Journeys only time reveals
Shadows dancing so surreal
In skies of mystery blue
And eyes that see right through
Illusions of a grand affair
Capricious spirits everywhere
Running fingers through your hair
And whispers so deep and dark
Halos around your heart
Chorus
Time slips away
Memories fade to grey
And life, well life’s so strange
But love, love’s the flame
Chorus
Chorus (repeat)

What Do Ya Want

What Do Ya (Do Ya Do Ya) Want
I caught you staring down my girlfriend's blouse
Now I don't know you but you're in my house
You better keep your eyes a to yourself
Don't want your hands a dusting my shelf
Chorus
What do ya do ya do ya do ya want
What do ya do ya do ya do ya need
Don't wanna beg you man I don't wanna plead
What do ya do y do ya do ya need
You tried to tell me you're a friend of a friend
Just wanna borrow what I don't wanna lend
But once you start I know you ain't gonna stop
You better leave or else I'm calling the cops
Chorus
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you need
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you need
You tried to tell me you're a friend of a friend
Just wanna borrow what I don't wanna lend
But once you start I know you ain't gonna stop
You better leave or else I'm calling the cops
Chorus
Chorus (repeat)

Easy

Easy
It's a one-way street
No return and no retreat
Keep an eye on the signs
Keep an eye on your feet
Ride the merry-go-round
Ride it up and ride it down
Don’t know how to get off
Don’t know why I got on
Chorus
I'm taking it easy now
I'm taking my time
I'm taking it easy now
I'm living my life
It’s a double-edged sword
No surrender no reward
Keep your eyes on the prize
Keep your feet on the floor
Ride the merry-go-round
Ride it up and ride it down
Don’t know how to get off
Don’t know why I got on
Chorus
Chorus
Chorus (repeat)

Find A Reason

Find a Reason
Take your chances win or lose
Roll the dice and pay your dues
Learn from everything you do
Most of all just follow through
Chorus
Find a reason everyday
Let the sun shine through the rain
Spread your wings and you'll learn to fly
Live your dreams and you'll never die
Don't get lost along the way
Believe in love and keep your faith
If you get taken for a ride
Well just take care of what's inside
Chorus
Chorus
Chorus (repeat)

How Many Hearts

How Many Hearts (Will She Break)
Chorus
How many hearts will she break
How many tears have to fall
How many hearts will she break
Just one more
Maybe just one more
Hard to please but still you try
To make her laugh until you cry
And when the tears come falling down
She’s not around
She’s leaving town
Chorus
You call ahead now just because
She’s not alone she never was
He’s just a friend she'll always say
And by the way
He’s gonna stay
Chorus
How many hearts
How many hearts
Chorus

Home Again

Home Again
So many times
I've travelled so far from home
Too many miles
And miles of lonely road ahead
Before I reach your bed
When I'm away
I carry a photograph
Faded and gray
It always brings me back again
No matter where I am
Chorus
Your eyes bring me home again
Your smile is my only friend
Your eyes bring me home again to you
Your eyes bring me home again
Your smile is my only friend
Your eyes bring me home again
We had a dream
Of living a better life
Darling that means
Making a sacrifice for love
And faith in God above
Chorus
It's lonely on the road
But darling this I know
Chorus
Chorus (repeat)

I Guess I Should have Told You
I guess I should have told you
Just how much I love your eyes
And I guess I should have kissed you
And held you for a while
Now I pray there's a chance
That someday I can dance
With you
I've learned to live with sadness
And I've learned to live with pain
I've tried to understand the madness
For the way things might have been
Now I pray there's a chance
That someday I can dance
With you
With you
You can graduate with honors
You can celebrate your life
But the only thing that matters
Are the ones you leave behind
Now I pray there's a chance
That someday I can dance
With you
With you
With you
I guess I should have told you
That I love you

Free

Free
Soon as I could walk I learned to crawl
Soon as I could talk I'd heard it all
Chorus
Now I know the world keeps turning
The fires of industry keep burning
But deep inside I've got this yearning
To be free
I went to work for years and years
I paid my dues with blood and tears
Chorus
They say that wisdom comes with age
But let me tell you I'm no sage
Just a man no longer caged
Just a man who's finally learning
To be free
Chorus
Chorus (repeat)
I may be old but now I’m learning
To be free
Free

Sing Me the Blues
Sing me the blues
But don't make it sad
Tell me some news
But don't make it bad
Chorus
Sing me the blues
Sing me the blues
Sing me the blues
Sing me the blues
Sing me the blues
But don't make me cry
Ask me to choose
But don't tell me why
Chorus
Cause nothing makes sense
And nobody's true
Just sit on that fence
What else can you do
Chorus
