I'D LIE FOR YOU (AND THAT'S THE TRUTH)
Boy :
I'd never tell you one lie, I'd never let you down
I'd never leave, I'd be the one who'd always be around
Girl: Baby give me a chance…
Boy :
I'd pull the sun down from the sky to light your darkest night
I wouldn't let one drop of rain fall down into your life
Girl: Put your heart in my hands…
Boy :
Baby, believe me I could never do you wrong
And I would never paint your world blue
And if sometimes it seems I must have lost my mind
I might be crazy—but I'm crazy 'bout you
Both:
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Do anything you asked me to
I'd even sell my soul for you
I do it al for you—if you just believe in me
Boy :
Just take a look in my eyes, you'll see a love that's blind
Just take a hold of my hand and I'll take you to paradise
Girl: Ain't a star that's to far…
Boy :
Your every wish will be a wis that I will make come trough
And if you want the moon, I swear: I'll bring it down for you
Girl: Let me into your heart…
Girl:
Believe me, baby, got your name carved on my soul
'Cause you're the only one that I'll give it to
Boy :
Go let 'em say that I'm a fool to act this way
'Cause if I'm crazy—I'm just crazy 'bout you
Both:
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Do anything you asked me to
I'd even sell my soul for you
I do it al for you—if you just believe in me
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Move mountains if you want me to
I'd walk across the fire for you
I'd walk on the wire for you—if you just believe in me
Girl:
And you'll never see a day I'll ever break your heart
You'll see the sky fall down before it ever gets that far
Boy :
I'll show you heaven ev'ry second that you're in my arms
Baby I'm crazy—but I'm crazy 'bout you....
Both:
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Move mountains if you want me to
I'd walk across the fire for you
I'd walk on the wire for you, if you just believe in me
Boy : I'd walk across the wire for you
Girl: Move mountains if you want me to
Boy : I'd walk across the fire for you
Girl: Do anything you asked me to
Both:
I'd lie for you—and that's the truth
Do anything you asked me to
I'd even sell my soul for you
I do it al for you—if you just believe in me
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Move mountains if you want me to
I'd walk across the fire for you
I'd walk on the wild for you—if you just believe in me....
Boy : I'd lie for you and that's the truth.....

NOT A DRY EYE IN THE HOUSE
Not a dry eye in the house
After loves curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking...
I can still see you standing there
Midnight wind blowin' through your hair
Remember kisses sweet in the salty air
When love was forever
Turn the page and we fade to blue
The scene has changed, now I'm without you
Well, you just walked away when the act was through
And the dream was over
It was almost like a movie, the way you said goodbye
You must have spend a lot of time rehearsing each and every line
Now there's not a dry eye in the house
After loves curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking, breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending is just too sad to take
And there is not a dry eye
Not a dry eye in the house
The greatest story was you and me
We had it all; we had everything
But now the story's done, it's just history
The last act is over
Your every line had the sweetest sound
Your every touch turned my world around
But then the light came up and my world crashed down
End of show, it's over
It was almost like a movie, those nights we touched the stars
Time stood still for you and I—now it's sad enough to make you cry
And there's not a dry eye in the house
After loves curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking, breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending is just too sad to take
And there is not a dry eye
Not a dry eye in the house....
Act one: The story's just begun
Act two: I fell in love with you
Act three: Knew it was meant to be
Act four: You don't love me no more
Not a dry eye in the house
After loves curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking, breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending is just too sad to take
And there is not a dry eye
Not a dry eye
Not a dry eye in the house
After loves curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking, breaking
Not a dry eye in the house
Not a dry eye in the house
Not a dry eye in the house.....

LEFT IN THE DARK
You don't have to sneak in the door
Just come on into the room
I've been lying in our bed in the dark all alone
And I've been waiting—I've been waiting for you
There's been no reason to move
It's been as still as a tomb
I needed you oh so badly tonight
But I guess you had better things to do...
I should have known that it was coming to this
But I must have been blind
I bet you still got a trace of his love in your eyes
And you still got his eyes on your mind...
You swore you'd be with me at 7 o'clock
Now it's a quarter to 3
Well whatever you got and whoever it was
I guess you couldn't get it from me
No, whatever you got and whoever it was
I guess you couldn't get it from me...
I know that you love me
There's no need to talk
I see the look in your eyes
And I got the proof
And there are no lies on your body
So take of your dress
I just want to get at the truth...
I know that you love me
There's no need to talk
I see the look in your eyes
And I got the proof
And there are no lies on your body
Oh so take of your dress
Oh, I just want to get at the truth...
And there are so many things
That I've just got to know
You tell me who!
You tell me where!
You tell me when!
But don't tell me now—I don't need any answers tonight
I just need some love so turn out the lights
And I'll be left in the dark again
I just need some love so turn out the lights
And I'll be left in the dark again
I just need some love, so turn out the lights
And I'll be left in the dark again
Oh, in the dark again....
I should have known that it was coming to this
But I must have been blind
I bet you still got a trace of his love in your eyes
And you still got his eyes on your mind...
You swore you'd be with me at 7 o'clock
Now it's a quarter to 3!
Well, whatever you got and whoever it was
I guess you couldn't get it from me
No I guess you couldn't get it from me...
But down in my soul—down in my soul I know
I know that you love me
There's no need to talk
I see the look in your eyes
And I got the proof
And there are no lies on your body
Ooh so take of your dress
Oh I just want to get at the truth...
But there are so many things
That I've just got to know
You tell me who!
You tell me where!
You tell me when!
But don't tell me now—I don't need any answers tonight
I just need some love so turn out the lights
And I'll be left in the dark again
I just need some love so turn out the lights
And I'll be left in the dark again
Ooh I just need some love so turn out the lights
And I'll be left in the dark again
I just need some love so turn out the lights
I'll be left in the dark again
Ooh I just need some love so turn out the lights
I'll be left in the dark again
Ooh I just need some love, ooh turn out the lights
I'll be left in the dark again
Left in the dark...
Who made the very first move?...
