[Don't need the sun to shine]
[Out of reach]
[Should I stay]
[Rise]
[When a woman]

It's been a while
But your smile always brightens up my day
I guess you know because it show
You can see it on my face
Feels like you've put a spell on me
Feels like you've captured me
And baby, this is how I feel

Don't need the sun to shine to make me smile
Don't care if it's dark outside 'cos I've got you
And though the rain may fall
No I won't care at all
'Cos baby I know that I got you

Everyday there's a change
You bring out the best in me
My inner soul is what you know
That is how you speak to me
You seem to understand
You know just who I am
And baby, this is how I feel

Don't need the sun to shine to make me smile
Don't care if it's dark outside 'cos I've got you
And though the rain may fall
No I won't care at all
'Cos baby I know that I got you

Don't need a rocket man
To help me touch the sky
I don't need to fly a plane
To get this high
Don't need to hitch a ride
When I could run a million miles
Yes I would, just to see you smile

Don't need the sun to shine to make me smile
Don't care if it's dark outside 'cos I've got you
And though the rain may fall
No I won't care at all
'Cos baby I know that I got you

Out of reach

Knew the signs
Wasn't right
I was stupid for a while
Swept away by you
And now I feel like a fool

So confused, my heart's bruised
Was I ever loved by you

Out of reach, so far
I never had your heart
Out of reach, couldn't see
We were never meant to be

Catch myself from despair
I could drown if I stay here
Keeping busy every day
I know I will be OK

But I was
So confused, my heart's bruised
Was I ever loved by you

Out of reach, so far
I never had your heart
Out of reach, couldn't see
We were never meant to be

So much hurt, so much pain
Takes a while to regain what is lost inside
And I hope that in time, you'll be out of my mind
And I'll be over you

But now I'm
So confused, my heart's bruised
Was I ever loved by you

Out of reach, so far
I never had your heart
Out of reach, couldn't see
We were never meant to be

Out of reach, so far
I never had your heart
In my reach, I can see
There's a life out there for me

Should I stay

Here I am, waiting for a sign, I never seem to know If you want me in your life, where do I stand?
I just don't know
I never feel I know you
'Cause you blow hot and you blow cold, it seems I've grown attached
Though we're not the perfect match
I just can't explain
CHORUS:
Should I stay?
Should I go
Could I ever really stand to let you go?
Can you not find the right words to say?
That maybe I'm getting in your way?

I feel your warmth, got me wanting more, you've left the door half open
I'm in two minds to explore, but then again
Am I being honest, being truthful to myself, can I see my life without you?
Could I be with someone else?
It seems I've grown attached, though we're not the perfect match
I just can't explain

Repeat chorus

Should I stay, should I go?
I really think it's time that you should let me know, can you not find the right words to say?
That maybe I'm getting in your way
It seems I've grown attached
Though we're not the perfect match

Repeat chorus

Rise

Know that it's over
But I can't believe we're through
They say that time is a healer
And I'm better without you
It's gonna take time I know
But I'll get over over you

Look at my life
Look at my heart
I have seen them fall apart
Now I'm ready to rise again
Look at my hopes
Look at my dreams
I'm building bridges from these scenes
Now I'm ready to rise again

Caught up in my thinking
Yeah
Like a prisoner in my mind
You pose so many questions
But the truth was hard to find
I better think twice I know
That I'll get over you

Look at my life
Look at my heart
I have seen them fall apart
Now I'm ready to rise again
Look at my hopes
Look at my dreams
I'm building bridges from these scenes
Now I'm ready to rise again

Much time has passed between us
Do you still think of me at all
My world of broken promises
Now you won't catch me when I fall

Look at my life
Look at my heart
I have seen them fall apart
Now I'm ready to rise again
Look at my hopes
Look at my dreams
I'm building bridges from these scenes
Now I'm ready to rise again

Early in the morning
My friends already calling
Ready for a party
They're just getting started
Wouldn't miss it for a moment
My heart's already stolen
Heard he's gonna be there
To miss it wouldn't be fair
No, no, no, no, no, no

She'll catch him any way she can

Driving down the highway
Roberta, Donnie Hathaway, yeah yeah
Playing on the airwaves
As we're making our way
We pull up to a red light
Check the mirror for the last time (for the last time)
I know I'm looking just fine and I feel all right
'Cos I know I'm gonna party tonight, yeah, baby

Walking through the party
With all my girls behind me, yeah, yeah
Suddenly I saw him
My heart it started jumping (and jumping and jumping and jumping)
Then he led me to the dancefloor
Then he held me closely (so closely, baby)
Then he whispered softly (ooh)
Will you be my one and only
My only girl

When a woman wants her man
She'll catch him any way she can
