Danny Wilde - The Boyfriend  (1986- Island Records)

Isn't It Enough
Sometimes I'd like to quit you, and find somebody who-don't know me quite as well
Yeh like a gypsy, she would be my jewel-Spend my days in a lovin' spell
But baby I ditched you, like a worn out glove-You know I ain't goin' nowhere
There ain't nothin', we can't rise above-We still got a lifetime to share
ISN'T IT ENOUGH THAT I STILL LOVE YOU?
ISN'T IT ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU STAY?
DON'T MAKE ME SUFFER, BABY-DON'T THROW IT ALL AWAY
Now I know you're tired, and feelin' all alone-I know what you're goin' through
I'll satisfy your fire, but I'm not made of stone-Tell me what more can I do?
(CHORUS)
Now can you look in my eyes, and tell me there's nothin' there?
You know I've compromised enough to show I care
So isn't it enough?!
Yeh sometimes I'd like to quit you, and find somebody who, don't know me quite the same
But it took so long, just to get this far-I'll be damned if I do it again!


Body To Body
Standin' there in the corner-Cigarette and a glass of wine
Girl I just wanna warn you, I'm not gonna waste your time..oh no
Ya know you set me on fire-I gotta say it's the way that you move
You're my only desire, so what do you have to lose..uh huh
Give me your love, I need your love...You know the kind I'm thinkin' of
I'm gonna get you!
(BODY TO BODY)-I'LL NEVER LET YOU GO
(BODY TO BODY)-YOU KNOW I NEED YOU SO
We were dancin' together-I hold you close and I start to shake
Knock me down with a feather, 'cause I got a lovin' ache
Gotta get you alone girl-I gotta show you what my love's about
_________ you've known girl-You're gonna scream and shout
Give me your love, I want your love....You know the kind I'm dreamin' of
I'm gonna get you


Restless Heart
From the beginning, I've always known
You get what you pay for-You reap what you sew
Baby you've planted a seed in my heart
The flower is tempting, but the thorns are much too sharp
Now I can't control what I'm feelin' for ya-I must let go even though I adore you
WELL IT'S A SHAME, SHAME, YOU'VE GOT A RESTLESS HEART
BANG, BANG-YOU GONNA SHOOT 'EM UP, SHOOT 'EM UP
_______, WHEN YOU PLAY THAT PART
SOMEBODY'S GONNA FALL
Once life was simple-Now I'm confused
Why do I always feel like I'm bein' used... Whoah
I question my anger-I question your faith
So don't give me an answer...'cause ya know that it's much too late
Now I can't control what I'm feelin for ya-I must let go even though I adore you
(CHORUS)
'Cause you got me at a disadvantage-I know you're takin' my love for granted
Can't go on, feelin' this way....Then again let go, it's a price that I pay
From the beginning, I've always been true
You're gonna get what you pay for... yeh


Angel (This Must be Heaven)
There's a feelin' I get, when I hold you in my arms
And there's a feelin' I get, when I'm beside you-beside you-beside you
Livin' my life away-Never knew what I was missin'
Hell it seemed so far away, but I kept on wishin'-wishin'-wishin'
I thought it was my imagination, runnin' away with me.
I couldn't find an explanation, till you came over me
YOU'RE AN ANGEL...AND I PRAYED FOR A GIRL LIKE YOU
YOU'RE AN ANGEL...AND I GUESS THIS MUST BE HEAVEN
Sometimes I just like to look at you-Yeh I know that you are mine
You always know what I'm thinkin'
It's just like you read my mind-read my mind...my mind
How did I ever get along without you, and all your tenderness?
I always say I love you
Just like you'd never guess-never guess-never guess
I thought it was my imagination, runnin' away with me.
I couldn't find an explanation, till you came over me
(CHORUS 2x)..yeh, yeh
It's 4 o'clock in the mornin', and I wake up with a smile
It's a good thing to know
You're gonna stay a while-stay a while-stay a while
(CHORUS 2x)


Hold Out For Me
I got your telegram, just the other day
I read between the lines-You had a lot to say
What's wrong?!...I've never seen this side of you
You say you're lonely...
Be strong! Don't let him get a hold on you
Seems like you're just a desperate girl-You know I'm not some guy
You're easy target in a dog eat world-But to me, you're number 1
CAN YOU HOLD OUT-HOLD OUT FOR ME-HOLD OUT TILL I GET HOME
ARE YOU GONNA BREAK DOWN AND FALL INTO A DANGER ZONE?
CAN YOU HOLD OUT-HOLD OUT FOR ME-HOLD OUT TILL I GET HOME
'CAUSE BABY I'VE BEEN HOLDIN' OUT FOR YOU SO LONG
Now any other girl, would slap him in the face
But you're too kind, to put him in his place
Oh no....I cannot make you understand
When are you gonna learn, it's just a game he plays
He's got a lot of time, but not much space for love - to him you're just a one night stand
Seems like you're just a desperate girl-You know I'm not some guy
You're easy target in a dog eat world-But to me, you're number 1
(CHORUS)


The Sound of My Heart Breaking
Listen into the cold wind-It always whispers her name
I See her in a thousand places-Why can't we be the same....be the same
Uh huh...I've been put aside-I've been taken for a ride
So when you hear the thunder roarin'....
THAT'S THE SOUND OF MY HEART BREAKING
EVERYTIME THAT I SEE HER WALK BY
THAT'S THE SOUND OF MY HEART BREAKING
I CAN'T SEEM TO GET HER OFF MY MIND
What did I do to break it-Maybe it wasn't really my fault..oh yeh
Now I don't know where I'm goin'-Wherever my feet will drag me to-drag me to
Alright...I've been put aside-I've been taken for a ride
So when you hear the thunder roarin'...
(CHORUS)...Yeh
Alright...huh-I've been criticized-I've been taken for a ride
So when you hear the thunder roarin'...
(CHORUS 2x)


Katherine
Hush now my baby-Don't you cry
You know that I will always be here, by your side
And if the wind is blowin', my coat will keep you warm
And if the rain starts fallin' down, I'll hide you from the storm
KATHERINE (WITH A GIRL LIKE YOU)-WITH A GIRL LIKE YOU, I CAN ONLY WIN
OH KATHERINE-YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I CARE
KATHERINE (GOT A LOVE ON YOU)-GOT A LOVE ON YOU THAT WILL NEVER END
OH KATHERINE, YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I CARE
I'll build a palace, under the desert sky
When you get tired, I will sing a lullaby
If you should ever hunger, I'll take away your pain
And if you should ever stumble, I'll pick you up again
(CHORUS)


He Can Have You
Oh last night in my dream, you were here with me, it seems
I guess you deserve her, in a way, I couldn't say
Oh did I let you down, and bring your feet back to the ground?
Where the streets are cold-They're cold and grey
So tonight he can hold you.....and tell you lies, like I never told you
WELL HE CAN HAVE YOU, 'CAUSE I DON'T WANT YOU
WHAT DO I NEED WITH A GIRL WHO'S ONLY GONNA MAKE ME CRY?
WELL HE CAN HAVE YOU-YEH HE DESERVES YOU
ALL I WANT IS A LOVER WHO WILL SATISFY ME
... and all the foolish things I've done
Like envisioning, a side of me, I could never be
Her eyes cold as the sky-Well yeh it hurt to say goodbye
To someone who, I thought I knew
So tonight he can hold you.....His pocketbook, is his only virtue
(CHORUS)


Criminal Mind
Hey brother what's your problem-Why do you cause such pain?
You think you're nobody's fool-You better think again
...I'm askin' in the neighborhood
You better get it together-Lord knows you've just about had enough
So check it out!
YOU'RE RUNNIN' OUT OF TIME
YOU'LL NEVER GET TO HEAVEN, WITH A CRIMINAL MIND
I will call for my money-Yeh I will call everyday
You know it's tough enough to make ends meet-You gonna take it away
I got bars on my windows-Got an alarm in my car
And if you ever touch my woman-Whoah boy you're gonna wear the scars
So check it out!
(CHORUS 2x)
Sometimes I feel so defenseless-Sometimes I feel so aloooone...Oh yeh
Now C'mon!
Everynight I say a prayer, before I go to bed
I'm not the victim, in the criminal's mind
I'm just one long way that he can get ahead
(CHORUS 2X)


The Boyfriend
Once or twice upon a time, we were lovers...
Days gone by-Stolen kisses-Stolen flowers-Borrowed dreams
Now hurt me once, shame on you
Hurt me twice, shame on me....shame on me
Did you know
Sometimes I feel just like a stranger...yeh like someone without a name
Well you know-Where we're goin', we could wind up dead
...
Don't forget to kiss your boyfriend

'Cause I'm the boyfriend
