1. Riff Raff

 

in the night it came to me

a vision plain to see

I knew I wanted more

than what was at my door

 

you are, you are     

you are, you are

you are, you are

 

tired of the riff raff

i wanted more than that 

met you unexpected

and you, you took my breath

 

you are, you are     

you are, you are

you are, you are

      

why don’t you come over?

oooo, take me under

i want to fall, fall, fall fast for you

i want to call, call, call only you

so why don’t you come over? 

And feel the way i do 

 

you dodge me day and night 

come on let up the fight

let your inhibitions go

cause i, i got whats right

 

you are, you are     

you are, you are

you are, you are     

 

why don’t you come over?

oooo, take me under

i want to fall, fall, fall fast for you

i want to call, call, call only you              

so why don’t you come over? 

and feel the way i do 

 

you’ve got the sweetness like a jar of honey

you move through me and it aint funny

i’ll throw my kisses in the wind

and hope they don’t come back again

i want them to find one pair

hope that they can hold me there

this old train will soon be gone

stay the night and be my one 

 

i want to fall fall fall for you

i want to call call call only you

 

you are, you are     

you are, you are

you are, you are

 

why don’t you come over,

oooo, take me under

i want to fall, fall, fall fast for you

i want to call, call, call only you              

so why don’t you come over? 

and feel the way i do 

 

 

2. One Big Love

 

oh you’re my man

you aint got a plan

you’re my man, aint got no plan 

and all i need is you

oh i’m sticking to 

you're my one big love

or i won’t get through

 

you make me howl

oh at the moon

like a wolf

i’ll find you soon

and i’ll hunt you down

till you howl back 

you’re my one big stack

don’t take me back        

don’t take me back

 

when we met , you said it was set

let me bet my money on it

well let's hit the pavement boy and keep on stepping

when i’m with you i don’t need direction 

 

skipping steps

trying to catch 

another eyeful 

of your batch

you cook me through through through

oh you make me coo

just come over here

or i won’t get through 

 

you darling got the look         

you darling write the book    

on cool, even the cucumbers envy you  

 

when we met , you said it was set

let me bet my money on it

well let's hit the pavement boy and keep on stepping

when i’m with you don’t need direction 

don’t need no direction…

don’t need no perfection

 

you’re my man, and you’re my plan 

 

 

 

3. Worries

 

tell it to me straight

tell it to me sweetly

say the words I’ve never heard

wrap me up completely

 

no need for explanation

all we need is affections

shake my tree don't get me down

keep me up don’t leave my town

 

no words no words can say it

this my way i’m sticking with it 

 

move with me so crooked

move with me so slow

i’ll never get it back

with you i fade to black

 

no words no words can say it

this my way i’m sticking with it 

 

my worries are with you, ohhhh

 

my worries are with you         

sometimes i feel i’m not alright

but you’re there every night, right by my side

 

cause you, oh you 

with you I fade to black

with you I fade to black

 

no words no words can say it

this my way i’m sticking with it 

 

my worries are with you, ohhhh

 

my worries are with you     

sometimes i feel i’m not alright

but you’re there every night, right by my side

 

 

4. Fly

 

don’t be afraid that if you fall

you won’t never ever fly 

 

I was down beyond the ground 

couldn’t see beyond my frown 

walked every hall up and down

and i finally heard that precious sound

 

who knew all i needed was a lift?

so i gave myself a kick, thats it

 

no one ever saw the light 

while sitting in the dark

how ya gonna make it roll without a spark

can’t make it up a mountain with loose footing on your mark

 

who knew all i needed was a lift?

so i gave myself a kick, thats it

 

Don’t be afraid that if you fall

you won’t never ever fly 

 

you gotta lift yourself up

dust it all off

get back on that horse and ride

lift yourself up

dust it all off

turn that table and that tide 

 

times get hard when your thoughts are moved

its tricky too when ya come unglued

thought that you, knew that too

don’t look at me you’re the fool

 

I knew that it would come to this

just give yourself a kick, thats it

 

you gotta lift yourself up

dust it all off

get back on that horse and ride

lift yourself up

dust it all off

turn that table and that tide 

 

and I’m feeling kinda over it

i really just want to quit

gotta get on top of this

don’t be afraid to fall 

 

you gotta lift yourself up

dust it all off

get back on that horse and ride

lift yourself up

dust it all off

turn that table and that tide 

 

don’t be afraid that if you fall

you won’t never ever fly

 

 

5. Carving Time

 

saying things that i don't mean

only puts a wedge between

a place with you and me that i can't stand

but carving time is what i do, i'll backward walk sweet things to you

till you're mine and i am yours again

 

with you oh i operate

shove the days and make them wait

for you til you're ready for my love

there i'll sit and wait for more

never stop i'll never snore

till you're mine and i am yours again

 

i know you never left at all

in my hands you've been to fall

over in and out with me

you're over in and out with me

 

know you never left at all

in my hands you've been to fall

for you i fall, for you i fell, for us we fall

 

saying things that i don't mean 

only puts a wedge between

a place with you and me that i can't stand

but you are my best man and get me like no one can

so you're mine and i am yours again

yes, you are mine and i am yours again

you are mine and i am yours again

you are mine and i am yours again

you are mine and i am yours…..again.
