The star spangled banner

O say, can you see, by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight
O'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air
Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there
O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

[Performed at Superbowl XXV, January 1991]

Heartbreak Hotel

This is the heartbreak hotel
This is the heartbreak hotel
This is the heartbreak hotel
This is the heartbreak hotel
Repeat

You said you'd be here by 9
Instead you took your time
You didn't think to call me, boy
Here I sit, tryin' not to cry
Askin' myself why
You'd do this to me

Refrein:
Since you're not around for me to tell you baby face to face
I'm writin' you this letter, and this is what I have to say

All I really wanted was some of your time
Instead you told me lies when someone else was on your mind
What you do to me, look what you did to me
I thought that you were someone who would do me right
Until you played with my emotions and you made me cry
What you do to me, can't take what you did to me

Now I see that you've been doin' wrong
You played me all along
And made a fool of me, baby
You got it all wrong to think that I wouldn't find out
(Uh!)
That you were cheatin' on me baby
How could you do it to me

Refrein:
Since you're not around for me to tell you baby face to face
I'm writin' you this letter, and this is what I have to say

All I really wanted was some of your time
Instead you told me lies when someone else was on your mind (what you
did...)
What you do to me, look what you did to me
I thought that you were someone who would do me right
Until you played with my emotions and you made me cry
What you do to me (why you do it?), can't take what you did to me (you
didn't have to do it to me, baby)

This is the heartbreak hotel
This is the heartbreak hotel
This is the heartbreak hotel
This is the heartbreak hotel
Repeat

All I really wanted was some of your time
Instead you told me lies when someone else was on your mind
What you do to me, look what you did to me
I thought that you were someone who would do me right
Until you played with my emotions and you made me cry
What you do to me, can't take what you did to me

All I really wanted was some of your time
Instead you told me lies when someone else was on your mind
What you do to me, look what you did to me
I thought that you were someone who would do me right
Until you played with my emotions and you made me cry
What you do to me, can't take what you did to me

I ain't gon' take it..... I ain't gon' take it boy

I learned from the best

Did you really think that I would really take you
back Let you back in my heart one more time
Ohh. No. No.
Did you think that I?dstill care
That there?d be more feeling there
Did you think you couldwalk back in my life.
So you found you miss the love you threw away.
Baby butyou found it out too late.
Too Late.

Chorus:

And so now you know the way it feels to cry
The way that I cried when you broke my world in two.
Baby I learned the way to break a heart I learned from the best.
I learned from you.
Oh baby now. I learned from you

I remember cold nights
Tears I though would never dry
How you shattered my world
With your goodbye.
Your goodbye baby
Would?vesold my soul then.
Just to have you back again
Now you?re the last thingon my mind.
Now you say your sorry and
You?ve changed your ways
Sorry but you changed you ways too late.

Chorus

So when all you?ve got are sleeplessnights
When those tears are clouding up your eyes
Just remember it was you whosaid goodbye
Who said goodbye. Instrumental break Chorus

If I told

Now tell me how you feel if I told
You that I have feelings for you
Ansd would it be so wrong to say
What's on my mind
I'm sorry I have to
We were friends but with time
What I feel inside for you has changed
But I'd give up on love, if I thought
That it was untrue for you

(If I told you that) I wanted to see you
(And if I told you that) I beg to please you
(If I told you that) I'll always keep you
What would you say (if I told you that)

I know that we were just friends
But what if I decide to bring somethings in
I hope it won't offend the trust
We have cause I don't want this to end
I you think that we'll lose what we have
Then I'd just rather stay (rather stay) the same
(I'd rather stay the same)
Cause I don't wanna choose
Between two of the most precious things to me
(tell me)

(If I told you that) I wanted to see you
(And if I told you that) I beg to please you
(If I told you that) I'll always keep you
What would you say (if I told you that)

If we take this chance and extend
To each other romance
I hope it would be
The right thing for you and me

(If I told you that) I wanted to see you
(And if I told you that) I beg to please you
(If I told you that) I'll always keep you
What would you say (if I told you that)

Would you be there for me
Could you dare to hold me
Will my feelings leave me
Lonely if I told you
Could I Have This Kiss Forever

Over and over I look in your eyes
You are all I desire
You have captured me
I want to hold you I want to be close to you
I never want to let go
I wish that this night would never end
I need to know

Could I hold you for a lifetime?
Could I look into your eyes?
Could I have this night to share this night together?
Could I hold you close beside me?
Could I hold you for all time?
Could I could I have this kiss forever?
Could I could I have this kiss forever, forever?

Over and over I've dreamed of this night
Now you're here by my side
You are next to me
I want to hold you and touch you and taste you
And make you want no one but me
I wish that this kiss could never end
Oh baby please

I don't want any night to go by
Without you by my side
I just want all my days
Spent being next to you
Lived for just loving you
And baby, oh by the way

Fine

It's fine
Fine, fine, fine, fine
It's alright

I had a dream last night
That the world stopped turning
But your madness, it kept on
Guess I wasn't too bright
And I really wasn't learning
Should have seen it all along

All those sweet (sweet), sweet kisses (yeah)
And those sweet (sweet) red roses (yeah)
They convinced me it was you
I made you (you) exclusive (yeah)
Now it's so (now it's conclusive that) conclusive
That you wasn't doin' it too

Chorus :
If ya told me from the start that you played around
I woulda been fine
Then I woulda played too
And I guess I woulda had a good time
If ya told me from the start that you played around
I woulda been fine
Then I woulda played too
And I guess I woulda had a good time

Something didn't feel right
And I wish I knew it
I just could not see your games
I got respect for you
And you put me through it
Why would you bring me so much pain

I would stick up for you
'Cause I did (I did adore you) adore you
While my dogs would chew you out
Tried to be so nice
On those lonely (on those lonely, lonely, lonely nights) nights
But I should have figured you out

Chorus

Baby you're so
Fine (you are the one that I love)
You are so fine (your love was sent from above)
You are so
You're fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine
(So doggone fine)
Baby you're so fine (you are the one that I love)
You are so fine
Fine (your love was sent from above)
Oh you're all of mine
You're fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine
(So doggone fine)
Fine (you are the one that I love)
Fine (your love was sent from above)
You're fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine
(So doggone fine)

Chorus
