Don't Leave Me This Way

Don't leave me this way
I can't survive, I can't stay alive
Without your love, oh baby
Don't live me this way
I can't exist, I will surely miss
Your tender kiss
So don't leave me this way

Oh baby, my heart is full of love and
desire for you
So come on down and do what
you've got to do
Your started this fire down in my soul
Now can't you see it's burning, out of
control
So come on down and satisfy the
need in me
Cos only your good loving can set me
free

Don't leave me this way
I don't understand how I'm at your
command
So baby please don't leave me this
way.

Don't leave me this way
Cos I can't exist
I will surely miss
Your tender kiss
So don't leave me this way

Oh baby, my heart is full of love and
desire for you...

Don't leave me this way
Cos I can't survive, I can't stay alive
Without your love, oh baby
Don't live me this way
I can't exist, I will surely miss
Your tender kiss
So don't leave me this way

Oh baby, my heart is full of love and
desire for you..

La Dolarosa

Boy you and I should hide away
As far as love will let us stray
We will dance for ever and a day
Be together for eternity.

We shall bloom in our spring affair
Steel a kiss beneath the golden moon
Run hand in hand without a care
And flourish in the summer sun.

I love you.

Autumn's breeze blows gently
through your hair
To you I give my heart completely
And as winter days grow dark and
cold
I'll keep warm in the glow of your
love

I love you, yes I do
I love you, yes I do
I love you
I love you

Disenchanted

So, boy where you go, what you do,
Hey there boy what is wrong with
you?
No future, no hope, just broken
dreams,
You spend your days wondering why

Chorus:
I'll be your friend, I'll be around
I'll be everything you need
I'll be your friend, I'll be around
I'll be everything you need

Hey young man, why you cry
Don't you know, you've got to try
A little bit harder, you've got to stand
On your own two feet
Never let them drag you down
Hey there boy
This prejudice and ignorance we can
overcome
(chorus)

Disenchanted angry young man (x4)
I'll never let you down
Never let you down

So boy now you know what to do,
hey there boy don't be blue
There's future, there's hope, hope for
you
Hey young man just believe in what
you do.

(chorus)
Pride is something good for you
Believe in yourself.

Reprise

Now I know the truth about you
The lie you lived deceiving me
All the dreams you will destroy
And leave me lost and vulnerable.

Hush now baby don't you cry
Mother loves you only pressure heavy
on her mind
Every day brings one more debt
Nothing left to pay only tears and
sweat
Life goes down, down, down, down
Life goes down.

Life goes down, down, down, down
Life goes down
Why do you abuse your friend?
It's not her fault that you can't find a
means to an end
Can't you see it's working well,
The way they turn you against
yourself?
Life goes down, down, down, down
Life goes down
*(Reprise is dedicated to Margaret Hilda Thatcher)

So Cold the Night

Refrain 1:
I watch your window
I shake so scared
Spying from my room
With nervous unrest
Night after night your fingers
caressing
The skin that is so fair you slowly
undress

Chorus:
Soon we will be together
Until then so cold the night
Soon we will be together
Until then so cold the night

I know that you knowthat I'm here
each night
Watching and praying the time is now
right
For me to undress and caress you
Until then I'll just sit here and dream.

(chorus)
Cold the night, Cold the night

Soon my love
Soon my secret lover
Soon my love
Soon my secret lover
Soon my love
Soon my secret lover
Soon my lover

(refrain 1)

(chorus x2)
Cold the night (x6)
Ooh it's so cold without you
Cold the night (x6)

You Are My World

There is nothing boy that can stop my course
I will hold you tight never let you go
Tomorrow's party will never end
Like a bud in spring our love will bloom and grow

Your eyes to me are precious stones
On a face that's made of a solid gold
When I hold your hand I want to cry
And your loving arms to protect me
from the could you are my world

The soul inside now belongs to you
I'm drowing in a love so deep
We will overcome those ups and downs
So happiness is forever ours to keep

I will follow you to the end of time
I will be the blood flowing through your veins
I will ride with you till the end of the line
You will be my everything; my world
You are; you are; you are; you are,
Oh boy; you are my world

Lover Man

I don't know why but I'm feeling so sad
I long to try something I've never had
Never had no kissing
Oh what have I been missing?
Lover man oh where can you be?

The night is cold and I'm so alone
I'd give my soul just to call you my own
Got the moon above
Got no-one to love me
Lover man, oh where can you be?

I've heard it said that the thrill of
romance can be like a heavenly dream
I go to bed with a prayer that you'll
soon make love to me, strange as it seems

Someday we'll meet and you'll dry all my tears
Then whisper sweet little things in my ears
Hugging and a-kissing. Oh what have I been missing?
Lover man oh where can you be?

Don't Slip Away

Something inside of me's out of control
I can't contain it so just let it go
Baby I'm so sold on you can't you see
What you're doing to me

Chorus:
Now that I've got you in my hands
Won't let you slip away
Now that I've got you in my hands
Won't let you slip away

baby I waited here counting the days
Hoping and praying and blueing away

Now that you're here with me all of
my dreams have come true

(chorus)
[I got you, I got you]

Yeah yeah...

Could it be magic this feeling inside
Baby you move me in every way
All of these things that you do
Feel so good, oooh oooh ooooh ooh

(chorus)

Something inside of me's out of control
Baby can't stop it so just let it go
Baby for you I'd go down on my
Knees and I'd pray

(chorus)

Heavens Above

Oh well he's got a hold on my heart,
my lust and my everything
He's thrown it around and around and
I'm screaming, don't bring me down

Chorus:
Oh well I took control of his fire
And it kept me warm all night long
Now I find it hard to control the desire
To keep it burning on

Oh well his love is strong as strong can be
Oh well his love is strong enough for me
I've got an angel
I've got an angel
I've got an angel
I've got an angel

(chorus)

Oh well his love is strong as strong can be
Oh well his love is strong enough for me
(x2)


Heavens above no I can't get enough
(x4)

Oh well his love...

Forbidden Love

Our love is like forbidden fruit
But we take each bite with pride not shame
In this garden where the bitter poison rots
But all the same ... we shall

Stand so strong so proud
Give in to prejudice
Behind closed doors we have to kiss
But I long to hold your hand in the rain

Watching accepted lovers expressing
tenderness and joy
Makes an angel stir in me for
something I can't truly have

Like a young boy who's denied his favourite toy
I just want to scream, just want to scream
And demonstrate my resistance
Just demonstrate my resistance
Demonstrate my resistance

Our love is like forbidden fruit
But we take each bite with pride not shame

In this garden where the bitter poison rots
But all the same every day brings another tear
Beahind each stare lies a hidden tear
Someday soon we will have our day
Until then our love forbidden stays

Our love is like forbidden fruit (x4)
Forbidden fruit, forbidden fruit

Breadline Britain

This is Breadline Britain
This free and promised land
Where the rich don't give a damn
Poeple getting hungry and people getting poor
People getting destitute and more
This is Breadline Britain

Oh you've got to understand
Where evil's in command
Where money buys onli pipedreams
and a worker's life is damned
Democracy and freedom are a
Far off foreign land.

Where the sick don't stand a chance
Where fascism leads a new dance
Where they'd privatise your mother
If given half a chance
This is Breadline Britain
You've got to make a stand

Breadline, breadline, breadline Britain
Breadline breadline, breadline Britain
This free and promised land
