Hey, this might come out strange But I can tell from over there that I Belong over here with you So whatcha gonna do, Just sit there starin'? Well, take a good long look You won't find this in any book that you read What you need is me You see-- Ah-ha, ah-ha Baby, I'm aware that you're a man After my own heart You like looks and books More than any other Than I have discovered Hey, don't you think it's strange That we've been walkin' and talkin' 'bout Nothing and everything So this is how it is to feel so close Well, put your hand in mine You've been so hard to find And I feel this is real, indeed Indeed! Ah-ha, ah-ha Baby, I'm aware that you're a man After my own heart You like walks and talks More than any other Than I have discovered Won't you be my lover Ah-ha, ah-ha Baby, I'm aware that you're a man After my own heart You like looks and books More than any other Than I have discovered Hey, do you? Me too So let's do what comes naturally Ah-ha, ah-ha Baby, I'm aware that you're a man After my own heart 'Cause we both believe That we have discovered love Above any other Ah-ha, ah-ha Baby, I'm aware that you're a man After my own heart 'Cause we both believe That we have discovered love Above all others Ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha Ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha Ah-ha, ah-ha-ha Ah-ha, ah-ha-ha Ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha Ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha Ah-ha, ah-ha-ha Oo-hoo-- Do what comes naturally

Easy Love 03:21
lyrics

I used to think that maybe my brand of crazy Was the reason I've been alone Now I realize the skies were waiting for You to come along Well, I don't know where you've been But it seems that you've appeared at the right time, my friend And this is real, and it's enough I think I'm falling deeply in love With all of you You--- You--- make it easy Easy love, love is easy with you You--- You--- make it easy Easy love You're the kind of person who listens to a person, And then does the right thing You're the kind of heart that opens from the start And feels everything Well, I don't know what you said But the way you made me feel rings in my head And in my heart, and down my back Like all of me is under attack By all of you You--- You-- make it easy Easy love, love is easy with you You-- You-- make it easy Easy love, love is easy-- Chase the dark clouds away, or roll 'em in It doesn't matter either way 'Cause you can handle it all And that's why I stay It's you You-- You-- make it easy Easy love, love is easy with you You-- You-- make it easy Easy love Love is easy, love is easy, love is easy Easy love (repeat, fade)

Only A Habit 04:13
lyrics
buy track
Up all night, up with you Pour the rum and watch the TV And laugh along Up at dawn, up with you Pour the coffee and watch the TV Then you're gone Do you life and I'll do mine We get together just to pass the time And who said anything about love 'Cause this ain't love This is a habit It's only a habit And who will fall apart when we're done 'Cause this is done This is a habit Only a habit We don't talk, we don't fight We don't do the things you need to To make this grow And if we talk, it's polite We don't drop into the wanting We just float In the dreams we dream alone In the secrets we keep on our own And who said... This is what happens when you're lonely This is what happens when you're just curious This is nothing This is nothing This is nothing Nothing at all And who said...

I Chose to Love You 03:12
lyrics
buy track
It's true, it was my choice To turn into a toy Once favored, then forgotten In a box with worn-out clothes It's true, I knew your way That there would come a day You'd throw the box away with me inside Stuck inside But, I chose to love you anyway I chose to love you anyway I chose to love you anyway You accepted everything With open arms and hands And one foot set outside No plans to change your mind I stood behind the door Afraid to ask for more With too much too ignore reminding me Chiding me But, I chose to love you anyway I chose to love you anyway I chose to love you anyway So--- you're right I don't get to cry I don't get to say you're wrong When I knew all along And I chose to love you anyway I chose to love you anyway So, don't mind me I chose to love you--- anyway I chose to love you anyway It's true it was my choice To turn into a toy

Nobody's Fault 04:02
lyrics

Walk, walk, people Where you hustlin' to? You're just doin' what they tell you to I'm sittin' on the front porch Watchin' walkers pass me by If I'm discontented It ain't no one's fault but mine Nobody's fault--- no fault but mine Nobody's fault--- no fault but mine Nobody's fault No fault but mine If I'm discontented It ain't no one's fault but mine Sunday, Sunday, leave me in my bed I know Mama will pray for me instead I'm sittin' on the front porch Boxin' with God in my mind But if I'm in the darkness It ain't no one's fault but mine Nobody's fault--- no fault but mine Nobody's fault--- no fault but mine Nobody's fault No fault but mine If I'm in the darkness It ain't no one's fault but mine Cry, cry, baby No word why you've gone Cry, cry, maybe I'm the one who's wrong I'm sittin' on the back porch Hidin' out and wondrin' why But if I'm sad and lonely It ain't no one's fault but mine Nobody's fault--- no fault but mine Nobody's fault--- no fault but mine Nobody's fault No fault but mine If I'm discontented It ain't no one's fault If I'm in the darkenss It ain't no one's fault If I'm sad and lonely It ain't no one's fault but mine
