THE COMPLITE LIMELIGHT SESSIONS

It's Alright

(Written by Larry Graham Sr.)

Nothing's better than spending time together
Hangin' 'round
Wish it was forever, love and sunny weather
Shinnin' down

Ooh you're my lover, there's no other, yeah
Friends like me and you can share a little lovin' too

And it's alright
We're gettin' it together every night
Makin' every minute very right
Lovin' everything we feel, yeah
And it's so good
Doin' all the things we never could
Even if we're not sure that we should
Together it's you and me, yeah

Buildin' sandcastles, bein' little rascals
Havin' fun
Playin' on the beach just stayin' outta reach
Of everyone

Ooh let's forever stay together, yeah
Let's keep what we got forgettin' what we ought to do

And it's alright
We're gettin' it together every night
Makin' every minute very right
Lovin' everything we feel yeah
And it's so good
We're doin' all the things we never could
Even if we're not sure that we should
Together it's you and me, yeah

And it's so alright
We're gettin' it together every night
Makin' every minute very right
Lovin' everything we feel yeah
And it's so good
We're doin' all the things we never could
Even if we're not sure that we should
Together it's you and me, yeah

And it's alright
We're gettin' it together every night
Makin' every minute very right
Lovin' everything we feel, yeah...

Love

(Written by Eilleen Regina Twain & Paul Sabu)

Time goes by, I know
That I'm learnin'
Love, it lies
No wonder I'm hurtin'

I can see the lies all over your face
Only hope that time can help erase

The painful tears
That I'm cryin'
I can see in your eyes
Your love is dyin'

I should've know that you lied when you said to believe
That you'd love me enough that you'd never leave

But you just turned and walked away
You left me standing in the rain
You didn't take my love for real
Now how am I to feel

Love comes in and goes out
Like a season
You came in and walked out
For no reason

Do you really know what love is about
You really had me thinkin' there wasn't a doubt

That you would love me forever
You wanted me to know
That I had to love you now or never
But then you let me go

Mmm mmm-mmm mmm-mmm mmmm...
Oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh-oh...
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh...

All Fired Up, Nowhere To Burn

(Written by Eilleen Regina Twain & Paul Sabu)

From the inside lookin' out
You're the one that I've been thinkin' about
I'm a lonely little fool over you babe

Got me dazed and confused
Got my body cryin' the blues
Come and see me, got a line I'm throwing to you

You're the mountain that I want to climb
I won't stop 'til I reach it this time
I just can't get you outta my mind

I'm all fired up with nowhere to burn
Gotta hold myself steady
I'm all fired up with nowhere to burn
I know what I want and I'm ready

You passed every test
You left me here starved and obsessed
With a hunger that begs for you

Draw, aim, fire
You can't run from my desire
It's my arrow through your heart surrender to me

You're the mountain that I want to climb
I won't stop 'til I reach it this time
I just can't get you outta my mind

I'm all fired up with nowhere to burn
Gotta hold myself steady
I'm all fired up with nowhere to burn
I know what I want and I'm ready (ready)

You're the mountain that I want to climb
I won't stop 'til I reach it this time
I just can't get you outta my mind

I'm all fired up with nowhere to burn
Gotta hold myself steady
I'm all fired up with nowhere to burn
I know what I want and I'm ready (ready)

I'm all fired up with nowhere to burn
Gotta hold myself steady
I'm all fired up with nowhere to burn
I know what I want and I'm ready

The Heart Is Blind

(Written by Paul Janz & Rhonda Fleming)

I hear the slammin' of the door
There you go again
I can't take it anymore
That's just the way it is

Aww, but then I listen to my heart
And the anger fades
I wanna hold ya
Never let ya go away

I feel a ragging war inside
A battle between the heart and mind
But love wins when I close my eyes

The heart is blind (heart is blind)
It will not see (will not see)
When hope is gone
The heart will still believe
I see you go (see you go)
Through tearful eyes (tearful eyes)
But for the sake of love
The heart is blind

I know there's been a lot of nights
When we couldn't sleep
The words are like a knife
They cut so deep

Aww, but when I listen to my heart
It's deeper than the pain
Aww, I really love ya
And that's all that matters anyway

I feel a ragging war inside
A battle between the heart and mind
But love wins when I close my eyes

The heart is blind (heart is blind)
It will not see (will not see)
When hope is gone
The heart will still believe
I see you go (see you go)
Through tearful eyes (tearful eyes)
But for the sake of love
The heart is blind

I'll always love you
And hard times can only make us strong
If we keep holding on

The heart is blind (heart is blind)
It will not see (will not see)
When hope is gone
The heart will still believe
I see you go (see you go)
Through tearful eyes (tearful eyes)
But for the sake of love
The heart is blind

For The Love Of Him

(Written by Henry Jerome & Barbara Martin)

When he opens the door, says "I'm home"
Be aware of the look in his eyes
They tell you the mood he's in
What kind of day it's been

For the love of him
Make him your reason for living
Give all the love you can give him
All the love you can

There'll be times where he won't say a word
And you'll wonder if it's something you've said
A gentle touch of your hand
Will tell him you understand

For the love of him
Make him your reason for living
Give all the love you can give him
All the love you can

Little things he forgets to do
Have you told him today "I love you"?
When he reaches out, be there
Show him how much you care

He's a man and a man has to try
Let them run let them fall let them cry
His world won't fall apart
If you take him into your heart

For the love of him
Make him your reason for living
Give all the love you can give him
All the love you can

For the love of him
Make him your reason for living
Give all the love you can give him
All the love you can

For the love of him
Make him your reason for living
Give all the love you can give him
All the love you can

Wild And Wicked

(Written by Eilleen Regina Twain & Paul Sabu)

Full moon cravin' just a little
Young love from an innocent one
No shame it's purely noncommital
It's the only way to go if you wanna have fun

Kickstart the rhythm pull out on the road
Relyin' on an overload
I need some baby blues reflectin' in the mirror
Tellin' me all the things I wanna hear

Loved and lost
I paid a painful cost
Feel my love
I've reached the point of no return now

Wild and wicked
Wild and wicked for love
Wild and wicked
Wild and wicked for love

I need a guy that's full of sex appeal
I need a guy that looks good in the red
I want someone with a heart that I can steal
I want someone to drive me outta my head

Tight jeans, cute, and the way I might behave
Full of trouble you might say
All the things you said
Aw I want him in the back back way

Loved and lost
I paid a painful cost
Feel my love
I've reached the point of no return now

I'm wild and wicked
Wild and wicked for love
Wild and wicked
Wild and wicked for love

Wild and wicked
Wild and wicked for love
Wild and wicked
Wild and wicked for love

Loved and lost
I paid a painful cost
Feel my love
I've reached the point of no return now

Wild and wicked
Wild and wicked for love
Wild and wicked
Wild and wicked for love

Wild and wicked
Wild and wicked for love
Wild and wicked
Wild and wicked for love

I Ain't Gonna Eat Out My Heart Anymore

(Written by Lori Burton & Pamela Sawyer)

I admit you got the biggest brown eyes
And you know how to part your lips to tantalize

Sure babe
You know you can get any girl you want
Go ahead, do
And don't say you don't
You know you do

Well baby, I ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore
Ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore
Ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore

Just 'cause I ain't sayin' it
You should be ashamed what I've been seein' babe, huh
You better watch you step or you can bet
You're gonna loose the best thing you ever had

Well baby, I ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore
Ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore
Ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore

I love you, I love you, I do babe
But you ain't gonna cheat on me
I need you, I need you, I do
Choose, is it her or me

Well baby, I ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore
Ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore
Ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore

I love you, I love you, I do babe
But you ain't gonna cheat on me
I need you, I need you, I do
Choose, is it her or me

Oh baby, I ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore
Ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore
Ain't gonna eat out my heart anymore

Send It With Love

(Written by Eilleen Regina Twain & Paul Sabu)

Whenever I think of you it seems so unfair
That I have to close my eyes to see you there
I know I'm making it now,
But it's tough
I can't begin to tell you enough
The pain is too much

And I give my heart in a prayer
And send it with love
You, just say the word I'll be there
Send it with love
Send it with love

I've come to realize that I'm on my own
So whenever I'm scared inside
I dream that you're home
Hard to say
How everything happened so fast
So many questions to ask
Ohh...

And I give my heart in a prayer
And send it with love
You, just say the word I'll be there
Send it with love
Send it with love

Is it right or is it wrong
To want you here so much
But I can never bring you back
So I feel what I can't touch

I've come to realize that I'm on my own...

And I give my heart in a prayer
And send it with love
You, just say the word I'll be there
Send it with love
Send it with love

And I give my heart in a prayer
Send it with love
You, just say the word I'll be there
Send it with love

Half Breed

(Written by Al Capps & Mary Dean)

My father married a Cherokee
My mother's people were ashamed of me
The Indians said that I was white by law
The white man always called me "Indian Squaw"

Half breed - is all I ever heard
Half breed - how I learnt to hate the word
Half breed - she's no good they warned
Both sides were against me since the day I was born

We never settled went from town to town
When you're not welcome you don't hang around
The other children always laughed at me
Give her a feather she's a Cherokee

Half breed - is all I ever heard
Half breed - how I learnt to hate the word
Half breed - she's no good they warned
Both sides were against me since the day I was born

We weren't accepted and I felt the shame
Fifteen I left and tell me whose to blame
My life since then has been from man to man
But I can't run away from what I am

Half breed - that's all I ever heard
Half breed - how I learnt to hate the word
Half breed - she's no good they warned
Both sides were against me since the day I was born

Half breed - is all I ever heard
Half breed...

Hate To Love

(Written by Eilleen Regina Twain & Paul Sabu)

Midnight sky shining on my face
I feel the waves embracing me
I'm here to find
Some peace of mind
Time and time
Waits for me
It waits for me, yeah

So here I am again
Somewhere in between
(Hate to love)
Trying to find reality
In a dream
(Hate to love)
I'm afraid to say
I need someone like you
(Hate to love)
Oh-oh, hate to love

Faded photograph
Of a picture-perfect love
Locked inside this frame of mind
Forgiving truth is a trust betrayed
If time heals all it left me behind
It left me behind

So here I am again
Somewhere in between
(Hate to love)
Trying to find reality
In a dream
(Hate to love)
I'm afraid to say
I need someone like you
(Hate to love)
Oh-oh, hate to love

Loneliness and innocence
With you invade my heart
I love to hate the truth of love
It's tearing me apart

So here I am again
Somewhere in between
(Hate to love)
Trying to find reality
In a dream
(Hate to love)
I'm afraid to say
I need someone like you
(Hate to love)
Oh-oh, hate to love

So here I am again
Somewhere in between
(Hate to love)
Trying to find reality

Bite My Lip

(Written by Eilleen Regina Twain & Paul Sabu)

I got a nine to five it seems like it never ends
I got a touchy boss that wants me in his hands, yeah
And "no" is a word that he doesn't understand

He says baby can you work with me tonight
I know he knows that I can use the overtime, yeah
But I can tell he's gonna hand me another line

I gotta bite my lip
Keep it inside
Gotta bite my lip
Just let it ride
Gotta bite my lip
Watch what I say
Gotta bite my lip
Just walk away

Yeah, I run straight home I got a hot date tonight, yeah
I got a chilled champage for dinner by candle light
He's gonna be here soon and everything will be alright

I get a call, guess who's on the other line
I can't make it tonight, can we do it another time, yeah
Oh what a nerve, I had to give him a piece of my mind

I gotta bite my lip
Keep it inside
Gotta bite my lip
And let it ride
Gotta bite my lip
Watch what I say
Gotta bite my lip
And walk away

Gotta bite my lip
Keep it inside
Gotta bite my lip
Just let it ride
Gotta bite my lip
Watch what I say
Gotta bite my lip
Just walk away

Two Hearts, One Love (Always, Forever)

(Written by Eilleen Regina Twain & Paul Sabu)

You are the moonlight - I am the stars
Together we light up the night
You are the passion - I am the flame
We are both one and the same

I am the taker - you are the chance
This is the rule of romance
I am the seeker - you are the find
Together we're two of a kind

Two hearts, one love beating together
I am yours, you are mine
Two hearts, one love always forever
Standing the test of time

I can be happy - you can be sad
Together things aren't so bad
You are the sailor - I am the sea
The treasure of eternity

Two hearts, one love beating together
I am yours, you are mine
Two hearts, one love always forever
Standing the test of time

Here we are the two of us
Nothing in our way
Wanting you wanting me
Everyday

Two hearts, one love beating together
I am yours, you are mine
Two hearts, one love always forever
Standing the test of time

You are the passion - I am the flame
We are both one and the same

Two hearts, one love beating together
I am yours, you are mine
Two hearts, one love always forever
Standing the test of time

Two hearts, one love beating together
I am yours, you are mine
Two hearts, one love

The Rhythm Made Me Do It

(Written by Eilleen Regina Twain & Paul Sabu)

I just can't sleep so I get in my car and I drive
I'm on the 101 and I'm cruisin' by 105
Got the radio cranked and the rhythm is comin' alive

Got the wind in my face and I'm ready to take on the night
Not a worry in sight the DJ is rockin' me wild
Things are startin' to shake but hold on 'cause I ain't gonna break

Red light in the rear view mirror
(Well hey you pull it over here)
He says miss just step away from the car
(Hands on your head move and you're dead)
But officer

The rhythm made me do it
The rhythm got me high
The rhythm made me do it
What can I say
The rhythm made me do it

He's walkin' real slow and I know he's checkin' me out
Officer please can you tell me what this is about
You're doin' 105 and I'm lucky that you're still alive

He says baby get behind the wheel
I wanna make your tyres squeal
Hey baby like to make some noise
Turn it on, turn it up

The rhythm made me do it
The rhythm got me high
The rhythm made me do it
What can I say
The rhythm made me do it

Got the wind in our faces been drivin' all though the night
Got the red lights on and the DJ is rockin' us right
Things are startin' to shake so hold on 'cause we ain't gonna break

He says baby get behind the wheel
I wanna make your tyres squeal
Hey baby like to make some noise
Turn it on, turn it up

The rhythm made me do it
The rhythm got me high
The rhythm made me do it
What can I say
The rhythm made...

The rhythm made me do it
The rhythm got me high
The rhythm made me do it
What can I say
The rhythm made...

The rhythm made me do it
The rhythm got me high...

L.U.V. Eyes

(Written by Eilleen Regina Twain & Paul Sabu)

This friend of mine, he looks real good
He drives a fast car and lives in Hollywood
He treats me like his little sis'
I gotta let him know I want more than this
I want more

His girlfriend Jane is a prissy brat
I don't know what he sees in that
He thinks she's cool in her short tight dress
Take away the glamour and she's just a mess

Luv eyes
Think of me as more than just a friend
Luv eyes
Will this dream ever end

I got L.U.V. eyes looking at you
I got a B.I.G. heart made for two
Would you feel the same if you only knew
I got L.U.V. eyes looking at you

Gonna close my eyes and take a deep breath
I wanna be strong but I'm scared to death
Gonna put your arms around my waist
And tell you that I love you right to your face

Luv eyes
Think of me as more than just a friend
Luv eyes
Will this dream ever end

I got L.U.V. eyes looking at you
I got a B.I.G. heart made for two
Would you feel the same if you only knew
I got L.U.V. eyes looking at you

This friend of mine, he looks real good
Guess who made it to Hollywood
No more Jane, I got her beat
Now I'm sitting pretty in the front seat

Luv eyes
Look at me and let the feeling out
Heaven
The two of us in love

I got L.U.V. eyes looking at you
I got a B.I.G. heart made for two
Would you feel the same if you only knew
I got L.U.V. eyes
I got L.U.V. eyes looking at you
I got a B.I.G. heart made for two
Would you feel the same...

I Lost My Heart When I Found You

(Written by Eilleen Regina Twain & Paul Sabu)

Kiss me all over is all I can say
I've waited a lifetime to feel this way
You leave me breathless and out of my mind
I'm just so helpless so baby be kind

I lost my heart when I found you
Yeah, it feels so good to lose
I lost my heart when I found you
I lost my heart to you

You touched me in places deep in my heart
Imagination runs wild in the dark
Babe, I surrender only to you
I can't remember how it feels to be blue

I lost my heart when I found you
Yeah, it feels so good to lose
I lost my heart when I found you
I lost my heart to you

You leave me breathless and out of my mind
I'm just so helpless so baby be kind

I lost my heart when I found you
Yeah, it feels so good to lose
I lost my heart when I found you
I lost my heart to you

I lost my heart when I found you

(Don't Gimme That) Once Over

(Written by Eilleen Regina Twain & Paul Sabu)

How can you tell me it wasn't for real
Step into my shoes and see how it really feels
I know, I know why you do it
Still I can't stand you putting me though it

Don't gimme that once over
Don't gimme that once over
That's just one step over the line

Once upon a time I let you near
There was no reason that I had to fear
I know, I know it's easy for you to leave
But this time is better for me to give than receive

Don't gimme that once over
Don't gimme that once over
That's just one step over the line

You made the place and time
How did you fake that crime

Once in awhile I'll think of you
Maybe somethin' brand old or somethin' brand new
I know, I know I know where you'll be
Somewhere in the night lookin' for me
You can seek but you'll never find
'Cause you can't go back in time

Don't gimme that once over
Don't gimme that once over
That's just one step over the line

Don't gimme that once over
Don't gimme that once over
That's just one step over the line

Don't gimme that once over
Don't gimme that once over
That's just one step...
