One More Night


One more night, one more night
I've been trying ooh so long to let you know
Let you know how I feel
And if I stumble if I fall, just help me back
So I can make you see

Please give me one more night, give me one more night
One more night cos I can't wait forever
Give me just one more night, oh just one more night
Oh one more night cos I can't wait forever

I've been sitting here so long
Wasting time, just staring at the phone
And I was wondering should I call you
Then I thought maybe you're not alone

Please give me one more night, give me just one more night
Oh one more night, cos I can't wait forever
Please give me one more night, ooh just one more night
Oh one more night, cos I can't wait forever
Give me one more night, give me just one more night
Ooh one more night, cos I can't wait forever

Like a river to the sea
I will always be with you
And if you sail away
I will follow you

Give me one more night, give me just one more night
Oh one more night, cos I can't wait forever
I know there'll never be a time you'll ever feel the same
And I know it's only words
But if you change your mind you know that I'll be here
And maybe we both can learn

Give me just one more night, give me just one more night
Ooh one more night, cos I can't wait forever
Give me just one more night, give me just one more night
Ooh one more night, cos I can't wait forever

True Colors


You with the sad eyes
Don't be discouraged til I realise
It's hard to take courage
In a world, full of people
You can lose sight of it
And the darkness, inside you makes you feel so small

But I'll see your true colours, shining through
I see your true colours, and that's why I love you
So don't be afraid, to let them show
Your true colours, true colours
Are beautiful, ooh like a rainbow

Show me a smile
Don't be unhappy can't remember when
I last saw you laughing
When this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
Just call me up, cos you know I'll be there

And I'll see your true colours, shining through
I see your true colours, and that's why I love you
So don't be afraid, to let them show
Your true colours, true colours
Are beautiful, ooh like a rainbow

Such sad eyes
Take courage now, realise
if this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
Just call me up, cos you know I'll be there

And I'll see your true colours, shining through
I see your true colours, and that's why I love you
So don't be afraid, to let them show
Your true colours, true colours,true colours are shining through
I see your true colours, and that`s why I love you
so don`t be afraid, sharing your shoulder,
true colours, true colours, true colours
are beautiful, beautiful like the rainbow

Show me your colours, show your rainbow

Another Day In Paradise


She calls out to the man on the street
"sir, can you help me?
It's cold and i've nowhere to sleep
Is there somewhere you can tell me?"

He walks on, doesn't look back
He pretends he can't hear her
Starts to whistle as he crosses the street
Seems embarrased to be there

Oh, think twice
Cuz it's another day for you, you and me in paradise
Oh, think twice
Cuz it's another day for you
You and me in paradise

Think about it

She calls out to the man on the street
He can see she´s been crying
She's got blisters on the soles of her feet
She can't walk but she's trying

Oh, think twice...

Oh, lord, is there nothing more anybody can do?
Oh, lord, there must be something you can say

You can tell from the lines on her face
You can see that she´s been there
Probably been moved on from every place
'cause she didn't fit in there

Oh, think twice...

It's just another day
For you and me in paradise
