Cry Baby 04:01
CRY BABY Picked you up on a Saturday night Hopin’, that later I could hold you tight Spend my money like it’s out of style For all my luck I can’t raise a smile From you Baby You don’t like it I’ll say goodnight I don’t need no cry baby Good-bye Took you out on another date I begged you, baby, please, don’t be late Supposed to be ready ‘bout an hour ago Y’leave me downstairs, just pacin’ the floor You’re late I wait You don’t like it I’ll say goodnight I don’t need no cry baby Good-bye The moon is risin’ We could be drivin’ Girl, we’re just wastin’ time With all your cryin’ Your just denyin’ Any love that comes to you (SOLO) Bless my soul, what’s wrong with you Whinin’ all the time like babies do The game you’re playin’s just not my bag Come on, baby, you’re such a drag No fun I’m done You don’t like it I’ll say goodnight I don’t need no cry baby Good-bye The moon is risin’ We could be drivin’ Girl, we’re just wastin’ time With all your cryin’ Your just denyin’ Any love that comes to you Bless my soul, what’s wrong with you Whinin’ all the time like babies do The game you’re playin’s just not my bag Come on, baby, you’re such a drag No fun I’m done You don’t like it I’ll say goodnight I don’t need no cry baby Good-bye ©1988 Dada Music / LanningSongs (ASCAP)

EVERYTIME I SEE HER (VERSE) Words spill out on an empty page Everytime I see her My friends say, “Better act your age!” Everytime I see her I don’t care if it seems I’ve lost my mind Is it just imagination or does something crazy happen everytime? (CHORUS) I wanna hold her but, I lose my grip Everytime I see her I fall in love ‘cause I always trip Everytime I see that girl (VERSE) Try to turn away but, I gotta look back Everytime I see her I feel like a train runnin’ off the track Everytime I see her I don’t know, it seems I’ve lost control I don’t know if what I’m feeling’s really love, I just don’t know (CHORUS) Wanna tell her that I love her but, I lose my nerve Everytime I see her My tongue gets tied and I’m lost in the words Everytime I see her I wanna hold her but, I lose my grip Everytime I see her I fall in love ‘cause I always trip Everytime I see that girl (SOLO) I don’t know, it seems I’ve lost control I don’t know if what I’m feeling’s really love, I just don’t know (CHORUS) Wanna tell her that I love her but, I lose my nerve Everytime I see her My tongue gets tied and I’m lost in the words Everytime I see her I wanna hold her but, I lose my grip Everytime I see her I fall in love ‘cause I always trip Everytime I see that girl Everytime I see that girl Everytime I see that girl ©1988 Dada Music / Lanningsongs (ASCAP)

Malibu 03:50
MALIBU Dear summer love It's been a lonely year I wish I could wish you here To make the sun break through Like Malibu Hold on heart, I know, We had to say goodbye The water got in my eye In tears that were deep blue Like Malibu I wanna feel you breathe on my skin Warm as the sun, soft as the sand See your hair in shimmering waves Falling down Dear friend of mine This California dawn Tells me you're really gone Lost to my misty view Like Malibu

GENTLE SOUL (I Can Still Hear You) All feeling flows From letting you go The sadness I feel You’ll never know What I always wanted to say Can you hear me? Could it be true? This message from you Straight from the heart Drowning in blue Oceans cry for you Hear them crying Want you to know (Gentle Soul) Gentle Soul, I can still hear you Want you to know (Gentle Soul) Gentle Soul, I can still hear you I caught your eye A moment in time That said it all God only knows That we’ve lost you all too soon Such a crime Want you to know (Gentle Soul) Gentle Soul, I can still hear you Want you to know (Gentle Soul) Gentle Soul, I can still hear you Your voice sings to my soul And it’s alright Deep in my heart I’ll always know You’ll be the one Touching my soul ‘Cause there really are no good-byes I can hear you Want you to know (Gentle Soul) Gentle Soul, I can still hear you Want you to know (Gentle Soul) Gentle Soul, I can still hear you All feeling flows From letting you go Written by Rick Bell / Michael Lanning / John Bell ©1997 Dada Music / LanningSongs (ASCAP)
