Songs From “Blame It On Rock & Roll”

Lyrics

She’s got the feelin’; her head is reelin’
She shivers and her heart starts to pound
Her body’s shaking – muscles aching
It always happens when she hears the sound
She can drive all the men and boys insane
But only when the music’s pumping through her veins

SHE’S INNOCENCE GONE WILD
SHE’S OUTTA CONTROL
CAN’T TAME THE INNER CHILD
SHE FEELS THE MUSIC FLOW
NO STOPPIN
IT TAKES OVER
WHEN SHE’S OUT OF CONTROL
BLAME IT ON ROCK AND ROLL

Her hips are swaying;the boys are praying
They’ll get a chance for more than a dance
Guitars are whinin’ – her body’s grindin’
Lost in the rhythm – nothing breaks her trance
She can drive all the men and boys insane
But only when the music’s pumping through her veins

SHE’S INNOCENCE GONE WILD
SHE’S OUTTA CONTROL
CAN’T TAME THE INNER CHILD
SHE FEELS THE MUSIC FLOW
NO STOPPIN
IT TAKES OVER
WHEN SHE’S OUT OF CONTROL
BLAME IT ON ROCK AND ROLL

Can’t say what’s comin’ over her
Its some kind of possession
The music ends and she’s back again
Then it starts
And its like an addiction

SHE’S INNOCENCE GONE WILD
SHE’S OUTTA CONTROL
CAN’T TAME THE INNER CHILD
SHE FEELS THE MUSIC FLOW
NO STOPPIN
IT TAKES OVER
WHEN SHE’S OUT OF CONTROL
BLAME IT ON ROCK AND ROLL
BLAME IT ON ROCK AND ROLL

Lyrics

You were all I had left that night
I was the girl you could count on
Lost and alone, love steered us wrong
I ran to you and now you’re gone.
I needed someone – you needed someone
Looking back
I’d never do it again
Cause that night you lost your heart
I lost a friend

I NEVER WANTED TO BE YOUR LOVER
ONLY WANTED YOU FOR MY FRIEND
IF WE COULD’VE SEEN
HOW WE WOULD HURT IN THE END
YOU LOST YOUR HEART
I LOST A FRIEND

You shared your heart
With me that night
I thought it would end my lonely search
It was much too late when I learned
I could never give your love in return.
I needed someone – you needed someone
After time
The pain will go away
But that night we both lost out
I should’ve never stayed

I NEVER WANTED TO BE YOUR LOVER
ONLY WANTED YOU FOR MY FRIEND
IF WE COULD’VE SEEN
HOW WE WOULD HURT IN THE END
YOU LOST YOUR HEART
I LOST A FRIEND

REPEAT CHORUS

Lyrics

School’s out for the day
I don’t wanna face the world around me
Hiding in my room
Turn the music loud enough to drown me
Sometimes it feels like a prison
With no way out
Jailers dressed as parents
The only sane way to get away
Is to ….

TURN ON THE RADIO
BREAK THROUGH AND LET’S GO
WE’LL BE ROCKIN’ ON THE AIRWAVES
IT’S WHAT I NEED TO SET ME FREE
ROCKIN’- ROCKIN’ ON THE AIRWAVES
THERE’S NO NEED FOR TALKIN’
WHEN WE’RE ROCKIN’ ON THE AIRWAVES
TONIGHT

Pressures on me again
I don’t see an end- I hear a voice
You gotta crank it up it tells me
It’s the cure I need -there’s no other choice
No need for reasons
It makes no demands
Turn it all the way now
The whole world’s in our hands
When you ….

TURN ON THE RADIO
BREAK THROUGH AND LET’S GO
WE’LL BE ROCKIN’ ON THE AIRWAVES
IT’S WHAT I NEED TO SET ME FREE
ROCKIN’ -ROCKIN’ ON THE AIRWAVES
THERE’S NO NEED FOR TALKIN’
WHEN WE’RE ROCKIN’ ON THE AIRWAVES
TONIGHT

No need for reasons
It makes no demands
Turn it all the way now
The whole world’s in our hands
When you ….

TURN ON THE RADIO
BREAK THROUGH AND LET’S GO
WE’LL BE ROCKIN’ ON THE AIRWAVES
IT’S WHAT I NEED TO SET ME FREE
ROCKIN’-ROCKIN’ ON THE AIRWAVES
THERE’S NO NEED FOR TALKIN’
WHEN WE’RE ROCKIN’ ON THE AIRWAVES TONIGHT

Lyrics

I thought I’d make it easier
If I told you love had died
I thought I could convince myself
These words were true in time
I hoped soon you’d understand
It was you I wanted to save
Thought I could protect you
From a lifetime with me and heartache
Before it was too late

SO I LIED AND I SAID I DIDN’T NEED YOU
PART OF ME DIED
WHEN I SAID I COULD SURVIVE ALONE
IF YOU HAD SEEN MY FACE AS I TURNED AWAY
YOU’D KNOW THE TRUTH AND YOU WOULD HAVE REALIZED
THAT I LIED FOR YOU

I never asked what you wanted
Thought it wouldn’t have been fair
For me to let you love someone
Who was hardly ever there
I wish I’d had more faith in love
Should’ve heard the words inside
I hurt you and I don’t know why
Cause I never wanted to ever say good bye

SO I LIED AND I SAID I DIDN’T NEED YOU
PART OF ME DIED
WHEN I SAID I COULD SURVIVE ALONE
IF YOU HAD SEEN MY FACE AS I TURNED AWAY
YOU’D KNOW THE TRUTH AND YOU WOULD HAVE REALIZED
THAT I LIED FOR YOU

I thought it was the right thing to do
Can’t you see I did this all for you
I never knew I wouldn’t get used to life without you

SO I LIED AND I SAID I DIDN’T NEED YOU
PART OF ME DIED
WHEN I SAID I COULD SURVIVE ALONE
IF YOU HAD SEEN MY FACE AS I TURNED AWAY
YOU’D KNOW THE TRUTH AND YOU WOULD HAVE REALIZED
THAT I LIED FOR YOU

Lyrics

You know there’s nothing you can say
Together we are like a moth and a fire
There’s nothing we can do
Just the way you move, I can sense desire
Its something one on one you have in mind

I don’t have much patience when it comes to us
You set me aflame when you whisper my name

AND I’M BURNIN’
WITH EVERYTHING YOU DO
YOU LIGHT UP MY LOVE
TIL I’M BURNIN’ UP BURNIN’ UP
THERE WON’T BE MUCH TALKIN’ TONIGHT
SLEEPLESS NIGHTS I DON’T MIND
WHEN I’M BURNIN’
BURNIN’ UP WITH YOU

Let our bodies speak for our hearts
Please, tell me with your hands
Don’t leave me smouldering – I’ll ignite you again
Baby, you can be the fireman
And I’ll answer you back as only I can

I don’t have much patience when it comes to us
You set me aflame when you whisper my name

AND I’M BURNIN’
WITH EVERYTHING YOU DO
YOU LIGHT UP MY LOVE
TIL I’M BURNIN’ UP BURNIN’ UP
THERE WON’T BE MUCH TALKIN’ TONIGHT
SLEEPLESS NIGHTS I DON’T MIND
WHEN I’M BURNIN’
BURNIN’ UP WITH YOU

Lyrics

I’ve seen you in the video baby
Your body called out to mine
So many times I’ve been with you
But only when I close my eyes
I’ve seen you in an interview
On the T.V. screen
You said I was the only one
But it was only in my dreams

YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU DO TO ME
OUR LOVE IS JUST A FANTASY
YOU AND I DREAMS OF ECSTASY
DON’T WANNA FACE REALITY
CAUSE I KNOW, I KNOW
YOU’RE JUST A FANTASY

I hear you singing on the radio
I know that song is just for me
And I’ve read your invitation
From the stage and magazine
For once I’d like to feel your kiss
And hold you next to me
I want to be your real love
Instead of in my dreams

YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU DO TO ME
OUR LOVE IS JUST A FANTASY
YOU AND I DREAMS OF ECSTASY
DON’T WANNA FACE REALITY
CAUSE I KNOW, I KNOW
YOU’RE JUST A FANTASY

Baby, you’re a world away
And I pray these scenes
Will come alive one day
But til then I don’t have to share
I know, yes I know you care
Cause you’re just a fantasy

YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU DO TO ME
OUR LOVE IS JUST A FANTASY
YOU AND I DREAMS OF ECSTASY
DON’T WANNA FACE REALITY
CAUSE I KNOW, I KNOW
YOU’RE JUST A FANTASY

Lyrics

Far from home, I feel cold and alone
I lie trembling deep inside
We’ve always had separate lives of our own
We fight to keep love alive
Inside I wrestle demons that scream
Ain’t gonna make it this time
It hurts me babe, but I’ve found a way
To make it through the night

IF I CAN FORGET HOW YOU HOLD ME WHEN I CRY
I WANT TO FORGET HOW YOU TOUCH ME
FOR JUST A LITTLE WHILE
IF I CAN FORGET YOU JUST FOR TONIGHT
IF I CAN FORGET – I’LL BE ALL RIGHT

Two hearts, worlds, and miles apart
Destined souls trying not to let go
If I think of you, I’ll come undone
I know this sounds so cold
Inside I wrestle demons who scream
And a love that I just can’t ignore
It hurts me babe, but it’s the only way
To make it out the door

IF I CAN FORGET HOW YOU HOLD ME WHEN I CRY
I’VE GOT TO FORGET HOW YOU TOUCH ME
FOR JUST A LITTLE WHILE
IF I CAN FORGET YOU JUST FOR TONIGHT
IF I CAN FORGET – IF I CAN FORGET

BRIDGE
Needing you haunts me all the time
Here it comes – I feel the pain
I get so mad at myself when I think of you again

REPEAT CHORUS

Lyrics

I found lipstick on your collar
You can’t look me in the eye
You’ve been working overtime
And now I know why

I can smell her perfume
When I walk through your door
And I can tell by your face
And signs I can’t ignore
Stains on your shirt
Black lace lyin’ on the floor

I FOUND LIPSTICK AND LACE
SHE LEFT HER TRACE
LIPSTICK AND LACE
IT’S WRITTEN ALL OVER YOU
YOU TRY TO TELL ME ITS MINE
DON’T GIVE ME THAT LINE
CAUSE THAT’S NOT MY SHADE
AND I DON’T WEAR RED LINGERIE

You act so hurt when accused
But I see through your lies
She left her mark everywhere
Can’t deny what you can’t hide
Satin and lace, and you know
They weren’t your size

I FOUND LIPSTICK AND LACE
SHE LEFT HER TRACE
LIPSTICK AND LACE
IT’S WRITTEN ALL OVER YOU
YOU TRY TO TELL ME ITS MINE
DON’T GIVE ME THAT LINE
CAUSE THAT’S NOT MY SHADE
AND I DON’T WEAR RED LINGERIE

I don’t know who she is
And I don’t care
But cheatin’s one thing I won’t take
Before I go, I’ve just gotta say
I thought you had better taste

LIPSTICK AND LACE
SHE LEFT HER TRACE
WITH HER LIPSTICK AND LACE
IT’S WRITTEN ALL OVER YOU
YOU TRY TO TELL ME ITS MINE
DON’T GIVE ME THAT LINE
CAUSE THAT’S NOT MY SHADE
AND I DON’T WEAR RED LINGERIE

Lyrics

I’ve got something
I want to say to you
Took a long, long time
But I’ve thought it through
If there’s one thing I’ve learned
My heart’s not a prize
Not gonna settle for less then love
This time

Be my friend
It’s a start
And if we work at this
I’ll have something to give

IT’S MY HEART
IT’S BEEN MISTREATED SO MANY TIMES
IT’S MY HEART
ALL YOU’VE GOTTA DO
IS TREAT IT RIGHT
AND LOVE ME
CAN’T YOU SEE IT ON MY SLEEVE
IT’S MY HEART
IT’S MY HEART

I’ve got something
I want to give you
Took a long, long time
But you’ve given proof
I think you’re worth the risk
You’re worth the time
Proved your love
Gave your heart
It’s time to give you mine

Took it slow
We were smart
To work so hard at this
Now I’ve got something to give

IT’S MY HEART
IT’S BEEN MISTREATED SO MANY TIMES
IT’S MY HEART
ALL YOU’VE GOTTA DO
IS TREAT IT RIGHT
AND LOVE ME
CAN’T YOU SEE IT ON MY SLEEVE
IT’S MY HEART
IT’S MY HEART

My heart is yours
I’ll give it to you
You showed me love
Now I know just what to do

IT’S MY HEART
IT’S BEEN MISTREATED SO MANY TIMES
IT’S MY HEART
IT’S MY HEART
