She's So FineIt was early in the eveninig, I was waiting for a train,I was thinking to myself as I watched the pouring rain, I need love but I don't know where to get it Then underneath this big umbrella she walked in the waiting room I just had to tell her though it might have been to soon I need love and I think I might have found it
She was some kind of priestessWith a black dress on CHORUS
And if it takes until forever and a day
I said don't misunderstand me
I've been waiting for a lifetime CHORUS
If I should pass away tonight while I'm asleep
I've been waiting for a lifetime
She's so fine Morley / Taylor
Dirty LoveI see you walking byYou've got that far away look in your eye It was only yesterday Like a cheap suit you were all over me I should know better by now my friend Just what I mean to you You've been running in and out of my life so long I don't want nothing to do with you CHORUS
I don't need your dirty love
Na na na na na na na
Chew me up spit me out CHORUS
I don't need your dirty love
I know there ain't no way I'll stay Morley
Don't Wait For MeNow I look out of my windowTo the street so far below And I pray I'll see you approaching Don't know why you had to go It's been so long but I feel no better I've got to say I'm still so alone Will I ever get used to this feeling And the nights so long and cold
When all I want to do is hold you
All my friends they smile when they see me
When all I want to do is hold you
How can I replace you ? Morley
Higher GroundI feel the wind blow on the cornerAnd I'm looking down along this dead end street All the people are getting older But they don't give a damn their lives are incomplete It don't look no better than it did before And I know what's happening behind each closed door If I don't get out today I'm gonna waste my life away And that's a part that I can't play CHORUS
I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town
As a young boy I didn't fit in CHORUS
I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town
If I don't get out today, I'm gonna waste my life away Morley
Until My Dying DayI can see the fading sun, sinking at the edge of townAnd it's one more day that's gone I'm thinking 'bout the past, and the time that slipped away But I can't change what I've done
Chasinig after foolish dreams
There's a child within the man, and it's keeping me keeping on
Maybe I'll change someday
Girl you're only one to light a fire inside me
Chasing after foolish dreams
Hey baby yo;re the only one to light a fire inside me Morley / Taylor
Back Street SymphonyI was running late for a night downtownMe and the boys gonna tie one down So I took a short cut through an alleyway And this sound just took my breath away
There she stood with just one guitar CHORUS
'Cos when she sang out that melody
So I watched the show in a state of trance CHORUS
When she unfolded that melody Morley

Love Walked InSo tired of waiting I walked an empty landI was looking for something to help me understand But bad luck kept turninig my dreams into sand I didn't want pity, I had my share of friends I wanted somebody more special than the rest I was aching inside like I was approaching the end Just about that moment the timing was so right You appeared like a vision sent down to my life I thought I was dreaming when I saw you that night CHORUS
That's when love walked in through my door
It's hard to remember being on my own CHORUS
That's when love walked in through my door
Love walked in...
Just about that moment the timing was so right Morley
An English Man On HolidayLaying down in this Spansih barThat last slammer hit me like a car I've got the 6 a.m. Balearic blues Can't even focus on my own tattoos I had a fight with this German guy I saw him give my little girl the eye While he was trying hard to be so cool I hit him with a stool CHORUS
Oh yeah alright I'll be going all night
Every year I get to do the same CHORUS
Oh yeah alright I'll be going all night
We never look for trouble at the start
This morning I woke up inside a cell CHORUS
Oh yeah alright I'll be going all night Morley
Girls Going Out Of Her HeadShe was burning up with that white line feverShe said "tie me up" but I couldn't get near her She was walking that fine line Stumbling on the edge Shaking like a leaf as high as a kite I tried to leave her but she didn't want to say goodnight CHORUS
The girl's going out of her head
She said "life's a bitch living in the fast lane CHORUS
The girl's going uot of her head Morley
Gimme Some Lovin'Well my temperature's rising asnd my feet are on fireTwenty people knocking 'cos they're wanting some more Let me in baby I don't know what you've got But you'd better take it easy this place is hot CHORUS
I'm so glad we made it, I'm so glad we made it
Well I feel so good everything is sounding hot CHORUS
I'm so glad we made it, I'm so glad we made it
Well I feel so good everybody's getting high CHORUS
I'm so glad we made it, I'm so glad we made it M. Winwood / S. Winwood / S. Davis
Distant ThunderEvery morning I wake upAnd I switch the TV on I like to watch the world go by From the safety of my home News is looking bad today Like it always seems to be I can't believe I'm so unmoved By the violence that I see
It's a fact of life CHORUS
I hear the sound of distant thunder
As we race towards the future
In the wink of an eye CHORUS
I hear the sound of distant thunder Morley
