Can’t Stop My Heart from Loving You (The Rain Song)

Hey…hey…hey…whoa…whoa…
Oh…

You can think that I’m just playin’ games
You can think I’ll do you wrong
You can think that I don’t mean a word I say
You can think what you want (What you want)

But if you think you’re gonna stop the way
I feel about you
Baby, you’re just wastin’ your time
‘Cause I’m not changing my mind

Can’t stop the rain from falling down, oh
Can’t stop the world from turnin’ ’round, oh
Can’t stop my heart from loving you
No, no (No, no), no matter what you do, baby

You can trust that I’m gonna stay around
You can trust I’ll treat you right (I treat you right)
You can be sure that I won’t ever let you down
Sure as there are stars in the night (In the night)

And if you ever think there’ll come a day
I’ll live without you
Baby, you’re as wrong as can be
Can’t change the way that I feel

Can’t stop the rain from falling down, oh
Can’t stop the world from turnin’ ’round, oh
Can’t stop my heart from loving you
No, no (No, no), no matter what you do, baby

Can’t stop a river running free, no
Can’t stop this love I feel in me, no
Can’t stop my heart from loving you
No, no (No, no), no matter what you do, baby

Can’t stop the wind, can’t stop the sea
Can’t stop the feelin’ I feel in me
Night needs the stars, stars need the sky
And I’ll always need you here in my life

Oh, oh, oh
Can’t stop my love, can’t stop my heart
I’m in too deep, I’ve gone too far (Oh…oh…)
Never gonna stop, never gonna stop
Lovin’ you, oh, oh, oh

But if you think you’re gonna stop the way
I feel about you
Baby, you’re just wastin’ your time
‘Cause I’m not changing my mind

Can’t stop the rain from falling down (Just can’t stop the rain)
Can’t stop the world from turnin’ ’round (Can’t stop, oh)
Can’t stop my heart from loving you (My heart, baby)
No, no (No, no), no matter what you do, baby

Can’t stop a river running free
Can’t stop this love I feel in me
Can’t stop my heart from loving you
No, no (No, no), no matter what you do, baby

Can’t stop the rain from falling down (I’m here by your side)
Can’t stop the world from turnin’ ’round (I’m gonna love you forever)
Can’t stop my heart from loving you (Can’t stop my heart from loving you)
No, no (No, no), no matter what you do, baby

Show Some Emotion

I’ve tried my best for so long
To break down these walls
But you build them strong
So I stand here waiting, wondering why
Oh why

Why you don’t give a little bit
Break down and give a little bit

Show, show some emotion
Open, open your heart,
Set free an ocean
Only a feeling can save us now

You say you’ve been hurt
Well you’re not alone
As you race through this life
What you keep to yourself

Can turn you to stone
All it would take is one kind word
To be heard

Come on and give a little bit
Try to forgive a little bit
Show, show some emotion
Open, open your heart
Set free an ocean
Only a feeling can save us now

Show, show some emotion
Open, open your heart
Set free an ocean
Only a feeling can save us now

Show some emotion
Open, open your heart
Set free an ocean
Only a feeling can save us now

Everyday of My Life

One lonely night I stumbled upon a dream
In my ordinary world,
With eyes like an angel,
A voice like a song from the heart,
You came into my world
You crossed a river of time,
You climbed a mountain of hope,
Yes you did,
You brought me all the love that I’ve been living for,
And now I can only ask for one thing more,

Just to have and to hold you,
Inspire and console you,
And be with you every day,
Be with you every day,
I want to love and adore you,
Do anything for you
And be with you every day
Be with you every day of my life

Just like the stars,
Shining down from the heavens,
Into my solitary world,
Just like the glow that comes when the rain is over,
Bringing warmth to the world,
You are the dawn of my day,
Yes you are,
You are the lantern that lights my way,
You are the love that I cherish in my heart,
I pray to heaven that we never part,

I want to have and to hold you,
Inspire and console you,
And be with you every day,
Be with you every day,
I want to love and adore you,
Do anything for you,
And be with you every day,
Be with you every day,

Every day I thank heaven for you,
Every night I pray just to……
Just to have and to hold you,
Inspire and console you,
And be with you everyday,
Be with you every day,
I want to love and adore you,
Do anything for you,
And be with you every day,
Be with you every day of my life

Down into Muddy Water

Now you left me here and went out on the town
I don’t know when I’ve been so down
The sky is dark,
The moon is blue
I don’t know what I’m gonna do
It’s like I’m falling down into muddy water

Well the national anthem has come and gone,
I still got the tv on,
And white noise,
A blue moon,
Sitting here waiting up on you,
It’s like I’m falling down into muddy water

The clock on the wall keeps rollin’ on,
2 o’clock, 3 o’clock, 4 o’clock, 5
Baby, you still ain’t home

Well, I’ve fought some sleep, in a straight back chair
Morning comes and you still ain’t here,
Roll on, I’ve had enough,
Holding on to faithless love,
It’s like I’m falling down into muddy water.

The clock on the wall keeps rollin’ on,
2 o’clock, 3 o’clock, 4 o’clock, 5
And baby, you still ain’t home,
Now you left me here and went out on the town,
I don’t know when I’ve been so down,
The sky is dark,
The moon is blue,
I don’t know what I’m gonna do,
It’s like I’m falling down into muddy water
It’s like I’m falling down into muddy water
I’m falling down into muddy water
I’m falling down into muddy water
I’m falling down into muddy water
I’m falling down into muddy water
I’m falling down into muddy water

Some Days Are Made for Rain

We held each other ’til the moon was high
We waved that sleepy little town good bye
And driving off together we crossed our hearts
Living for the promise that love would keep us honest
I said I’d be yours if you’d be mine
We were crazy baby
And every day the sun was sure to shine
But it tried and tried
Sometimes the wind makes a sudden change
And some days are made for rain

We fixed a tire and we drove like hell
We kissed like fire in a cheap motel
I never felt the hunger so bad before
Holding you beside me
Walls came down inside me
And I thought I was yours and you were mine
That was crazy baby
I was sure the sun would always shine
But it tried and tried

Sometimes the wind makes a sudden change
And some days are made for rain

You want to talk about love
I’ll tell you all about love
Nothing but trouble
On top of falling
One day you’re walking on air
Next day you look and there’s no one there
She never cared
She never cared

Now I’ve been sleeping with the tv on
I get so tired of wondering where you’ve gone
You tore across my heart across like a hurricane
I’m counting up the damage
Trying hard to manage
I thought I was yours and you were mine
That was crazy baby
And I was sure the sun would always shine
But take a look outside
Sometimes a wind makes a sudden change
Here comes those clouds and they’re full of pain
Some days are made for rain
Some days are made for rain

Let it pour outside
Some days are made for rain

Some days are made for rain

Try (A Little Harder)

Sometimes we need to start again
When this crazy life of ours is slow
And I guess that’s why fools like us rush in
Where wise men never never go

In time we may find out why
These walls we build seem so high
But I’ve gotta believe that we can break through
And I gotta believe this love is good for me and you

And all we have to do to make it last, oh yeah
Is try a little harder, try a little harder
All we have to do to make it groove is try a little harder, try a little harder

You’re the wildfire in my life
Always burning out of my control
Sometimes you cut me like a knife
Deep into my heart
Way down to my soul
But somehow we survive
And we get another chance to make it right
But I gotta believe that we know which path to choose
And I gotta believe that somehow we will see it through

All we have to do to make it last
Is try a little harder, try a little harder
All we have to do to make it groove
Is try a little harder, try a little harder

Each precious moment that we share
Is locked up in my heart forever more
I just need to know that you really care
When you touch my hand
Swear I’m gonna fall apart

All we have to do to make it last
Is try a little harder, try a little harder
All we have to do to make it groove
Is try a little harder, try a little harder
All we have to do to make it last
Is try a little harder, try a little harder

Beautiful Night

I thought it would rain forever
Caught in the flood
Reaching for some high ground
Just before I went down

It’s hard for me to remember
Just how I got through
Now I’m lying on the cool sand
Happy here where I am

I look up
The setting sun is bathing the world with a healing light
Little darlin’, it’s gonna be a beautiful night

The rolling of distant thunder
Trouble ahead
Now don’t you be afraid now
We’ll get through it somehow

Just look up
The setting sun is bathing the world with a healing light
Little darlin’, it’s gonna be a beautiful night

Some like burning all night long
Some like howling at the moon
Some just like to sing along
Cause we get lonely, lonely, we get so lonely

The stars in the sky above me
Can make me forget everything but you babe, everything but you

I look up
See your shining smile
And I know it’ll be all right
Little darlin’, it’s gonna be a beautiful night

Just look up,
The setting sun is bathing the world with a healing light
Little darlin’, it’s gonna be a beautiful night

Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain. let it rain

It’s gonna be, gonna be, gonna be, gonna be, gonna be, gonna be

My Precious Star

So many special reasons we are here, so in love
I feel so blessed because I know that we’re in this love
You are the sun that lights the sky, you are the only one I need in my life

Cause you are my precious star, wherever you are, I want to be there
And you’ve got all of my heart, and I will respect this love forever

Yours is the sweetest song I’ve ever heard, or ever knew
I can’t imagine living in this world, without you
I never thought that I could feel something so wonderful, something so real

Cause you are my precious star, wherever you are, I want to be there
And you’ve got all of my heart, and I will respect this love forever

Nothing is stronger than our love, nothing lasts longer than this love
Nothing is deeper than, sweeter than, loving you

Cause you are my precious star, wherever you are, I want to be there
And you’ve got all of my heart, and I will respect this love forever

And you are my precious star, wherever you are, I want to be there
And you’ve got all of my heart

Why Should I Fall in Love

Why should I fall in love
Turn my world upside down
One broken heart is quite enough
Why should I fall in love

Why should I hold your hand
Feel my hopes start to rise
It’s a long way down and I can’t fly
Why should I fall in love

Why should I hold you
Why should I dream
I know myself, I’ll just take it to extremes

I want to keep you my whole life through
If you’ve got no one, least you’ve got no one to lose

Why should I fall in love
Wake up tomorrow with a smile
I want the kind that lasts awhile
Why should I fall in love
Tell me baby

Why should I hold you
Why should I dream
I know myself, I’ll just take it to extremes
I wanna keep you my whole life through
But if you’ve got no one, least you’ve got no one to lose

Why should I fall in love
Turn my life inside out
One broken heart is quite enough
Why should I fall in love

This old heart has had it rough
Why should I fall in love

Use Me

Well, my friends feel it’s their appointed duty
They keep trying to tell me all you want to do is use me
But my answer to all that use me stuff
Is that I, I want to spread the news
That if it feels this good getting used
Oh, you just keep on using me until you use me up
Until you use me up

But my brother
You know he sit me right down and he talked to me
Well, he told me that I ought not to let you just walk on me
But I’m sure he meant well
You know, but when our talk was through
I had to say, now brother, if you only knew
You’d wish that you were in my shoes
Whoa, you just keep on using me until you use me up
Until you use me up

But sometimes, it’s true you really do abuse me
Well, you get me in a crowd of high-class people
And then you act real rude to me
But, oh baby, baby, baby, baby
When you love me, I can’t get enough
And I, said I want to spread the news
That if it feels this good getting used
Oh, you just keep on using me until you use me up
Until you use me up

Talkin’ ’bout you using me
And It all depends on what you do
It ain’t too bad the way you’re using me
Cause I sure am using you to do the things you do
Until you use me up

Until you use me up
Until you use me up
Until you use me up
Baby, just a keep on using
Until you use me up
Until you use me up
Baby….
Until you use me up
Get funky….
Until you use me up
Until you use me up

For the Good Times

Don’t look so sad, I know it’s over
But life goes on and this old world will keep on turning
Let’s just be glad we had some time to spend together
There’s no need to watch the bridges that we’re burning

Lay your head upon my pillow
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
Blowing soft against the window
And make believe you love me one more time
For the good times.

I’ll get along, and you’ll find another
And I’ll be here if you should find you ever need me
Don’t say a word about tomorrow or forever
There’ll be time enough for sadness when you leave me.

Lay your head upon my pillow
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
Blowing soft against the window
And make believe you love me one more time
For the good times

In Your Eyes

I can see it in your eyes,
You’re telling me a lie when you said you loved me
And there’s something in your smile,
Said you’d be gone in awhile,
So how can you love me

I can hear it in your talk,
You’re about to take a walk,
So darlin’ please don’t lie,
I’ve been knowing you way too long,
So don’t say there’s nothing wrong,
You could never fool me, know how

I can see it in your eyes,
What you’re trying to disguise,
I can feel it in your touch,
You’ve fallen out of love,
You could tell me that I’m wrong,

My heart knows I’m right,
I can see it in your eyes

So if it’s over, let it be over,
I’d rather face the truth than have to make believe your feelings haven’t changed,
Yes, I’ll be all right,
After you say good bye,
And I know that I’ll be missing you, for a long long time.

I can see it in your eyes,
What you’re trying to disguise,
I can feel it in your touch,
You’ve fallen out of love,
You could tell me that I’m wrong,
My heart knows I’m right,
I can see it in your eyes

You could tell me that I’m wrong,
My heart knows I’m right
I can see it in your eyes

Crying in the Chapel

You saw me crying in the chapel,
Tears I shed were tears of joy,
I know the meaning of contentment,
I am happy with the lord

Just a plain and simple chapel,
Where all good people go to pray,
I pray the lord that I’ll grow stronger,
As I live from day to day

I’ve searched, and I’ve searched, but I couldn’t find
Nowhere on earth to find peace of mind,
Now I’m happy in the chapel,
Where people are of one heart,
Yes we gather in the chapel,
Just to sing and praise the lord

You’ll search and you’ll search but you never find,
Nowhere on earth to find peace of mind,
Take your troubles to the chapel,
Get down on your knees and pray,
Then your burdens will be lightened,
And you’ll surely find the way.
