"Dancing Shoes"
It's so nice to see you
Can we sit and talk for a while?
I have searched forever
I can't imagine anythin' better
Kids up on the stairway
Couples on the sidewalk squares
If I get to your heart soon
I'll call a perfect afternoon
Won't you call my number?
Don't push, but don't hesitate
Wake me from this slumber
Rush me, but leave time to wake
Checkmate on my shoulder
I'm tired of this win or lose
Well, I'm no knight in shinnin' armor
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes
I'm no pair of dancin' shoes
My patience ran away, take me with you
You keep me holdin' on
Nothin's understood, you're so confusin'
Tell it to me straight
Won't you call my number?
Don't push, but don't hesitate
Wake me from this slumber
Rush me, but leave time to wake
Rush me, but leave time to wake
I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes
I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes
I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes
I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes
It's so nice to see you
Can we sit and talk for a while?
I have searched forever
I can't imagine anythin' better
Kids up on the stairway
Couples on the sidewalk squares
If I get to your heart soon
I'll call a perfect afternoon
Won't you call my number?
Don't push, but don't hesitate
Wake me from this slumber
Rush me, but leave time to wake
Checkmate on my shoulder
I'm tired of this win or lose
Well, I'm no knight in shinnin' armor
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes
I'm no pair of dancin' shoes
My patience ran away, take me with you
You keep me holdin' on
Nothin's understood, you're so confusin'
Tell it to me straight
Won't you call my number?
Don't push, but don't hesitate
Wake me from this slumber
Rush me, but leave time to wake
Rush me, but leave time to wake
I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes
I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes
I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes
I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes
"Young Love"
There's no need to beg babe
That's my open pocket
You take the money from me
I can scrounge
Gave me a fever that will not come down
Oh babe!
You're a young woman cast aside
Ostracized
Left on the sidewalk of my lonely life
[Chorus]
For the young lovers
Taking the hill
One plants a flag
While the other is killed
When the wine pours
We raise our cups
Young love is sacrifice
Young love is tough
Young love is innocent
Young love is us
What did I get into
Now everything is untrue
Oh, your eyes tell the lies
Of the lines that you said
And now that I love you
Oh, I wish we'd never met
Why wait?
Woman I'm taking risks here
That no one dared
And you're scared
Scared of the bottom
Afraid of the stairs
[Chorus]
Someone
I saw someone
And fell in love with a face
And it scares me to let her go
Still want her even though
I get less than she takes
[Chorus]
There's no need to beg babe
That's my open pocket
You take the money from me
I can scrounge
Gave me a fever that will not come down
Oh babe!
You're a young woman cast aside
Ostracized
Left on the sidewalk of my lonely life
[Chorus]
For the young lovers
Taking the hill
One plants a flag
While the other is killed
When the wine pours
We raise our cups
Young love is sacrifice
Young love is tough
Young love is innocent
Young love is us
What did I get into
Now everything is untrue
Oh, your eyes tell the lies
Of the lines that you said
And now that I love you
Oh, I wish we'd never met
Why wait?
Woman I'm taking risks here
That no one dared
And you're scared
Scared of the bottom
Afraid of the stairs
[Chorus]
Someone
I saw someone
And fell in love with a face
And it scares me to let her go
Still want her even though
I get less than she takes
[Chorus]
"Why Do Men Stray"
Why do the men stray
Why do the women pray
Why do the men fight
Why do the women sympathize
Whoa it was easier before I loved
Before this heart was turned to stone
Before this blood was stirred and blood was spilled
No one was ever meant to be alone
Why do the birds sing
What do they call that thing
Why do the bombs boom
We're running out of living room
Our needs getting needier and needier
More lies are told until they're truth
Until the messages are massacred
Old men get all their killing done with youth
Why do the men stray
Why do the women pray
Why do the men fight
Why do the women sympathize
All these wooden houses
Light themselves on fire in turn
Oh but someday there will be nothing left to burn
Oh someday there will be nothing left to burn
Whoa
Whoa
Someday someday someday someday
Why do the men stray
Why do the women pray
Why do the men fight
Why do the women sympathize
Whoa it was easier before I loved
Before this heart was turned to stone
Before this blood was stirred and blood was spilled
No one was ever meant to be alone
Why do the birds sing
What do they call that thing
Why do the bombs boom
We're running out of living room
Our needs getting needier and needier
More lies are told until they're truth
Until the messages are massacred
Old men get all their killing done with youth
Why do the men stray
Why do the women pray
Why do the men fight
Why do the women sympathize
All these wooden houses
Light themselves on fire in turn
Oh but someday there will be nothing left to burn
Oh someday there will be nothing left to burn
Whoa
Whoa
Someday someday someday someday
