I WON'T PLAY THE FOOL
By
Wild Orchid
***************
The stage is set so let the curtain riseAs for the ending my dear that's for me to decide
You may think you know the role that I play
You'll be so surprised when it's not that way
I Won't Play the Fool anymore
This time I walk out the door
And leave you standing here all alone
This time I find on my own
Someone who loves me
'Cause I, I Won't Play the Fool anymore
No more dramatic scenes, only a short goodbye
To all the lonely nights to all the good times
I found it is my heart to love
Now I must find the strength to go
Too late for happy endings,
now it's time you know
It's time you know - it's time you know
So let me dry your eyes, it's gonna be alright
But understand me when I say
It's time that we make a change
You don't have to lie no more - try no more
'Cause baby one thing's for sure...
I Won't Play the Fool anymore...
AT NIGHT I PRAY
***************
So aloneAnd this room feels so cold
No one to care and no one to hold
Yet the Lord knows
That I'm needing somebody like you
Just like you
Can you see
The passion burning in my eyes
Do you sense the rush you give my heart (oh yeh)
And if you knew
The secret way I feel for you
Would you come running to me or would you turn away
Chorus:
At night I pray (pray)
With hope and faith (faith)
As I lay me down to sleep
I pray together we will be (at night I pray)
And there will come a time (pray)
You'll be mine, all mine
And I'll be yours, always
But until that day comes at night I'll pray(oh yes)
Should I feel
These emotions inside me
Should I reveal what's locked up in my soul
I'm so afraid, But it's something that you couldn't know, couldn't know
How I want to touch you everytime you're near
I long to feel
Your body next to mine
And if you knew
The secret love I have for you
Would you come running to me or would you turn away
(Chorus)
If all my prayers were answered
Our hearts would be enraptured
We would find our heaven
Inside each other's arms
This lonely room would finally see the sun shine through
But until that day every night I'll pray
I'll get down on my knees, I'll get down on me knees and pray (pray)
Pray
Withhope and faith (faith)
As I lay me down to sleep
I pray together we will be(at night I pray)
And there will come a time, (pray)
You will be mine, all mine (and I'll be yours)
And I'll be yours always, but until that day comes at night I pray
Until that day comes at night I pray (Oh yeah)
And until that day comes at night I pray
MAKE IT EASY FOR ME
***************
Promise me that if you leaveYou won't be coming back again
It hurts to see your face when you look at me that way
Don't try to take me in your arms
'Cause I don't think that I could find the strength
To let you go, and leave me here alone
I need to break the ties that keep on breaking my heart
Not gonna hang on to the strings you tore apart
Chorus:
So make it easy for me, if you ever loved me
The hardest thing I'll ever do is say goodbye
Still loving you
So make it easy for me, if you ever loved me
Turn around and walk away
'Cause we've run out of words to say
You promised me our love would be
A fairy tale that everyone would wish for in their dreams
Well, where's my happy ending
Memories play in my mind, frame by frame
I see it all
Unfold before my eyes
How could I have been so blind
I need to break the ties that keep on breaking my heart
Not gonna hang on to the strings you tore apart
So make it easy for me, if you ever loved me
The hardest thing I'll ever do is say goodbye
Still loving you
So make it easy for me, if you ever loved me
Turn around and walk away
'Cause we've run out of words to say
Say you're sorry to me a million times
But that will never ease the pain
That I feel right now inside
You can try and make it better
But no matter what you do, you took away forever
When you told me we were through
So make it easy for me, if you ever loved me
The hardest thing I'll ever do is say goodbye
Still loving you
So make it easy for me, if you ever loved me
Turn around and walk away
'Cause we've run out of words to say
WASTED LOVE
***************
How could you do this to me?How could you do this to me?
I put my trust in you
That's what you're supposed to do
How could you tell all those lies
While you're looking dead straight in my eyes?
You're someone I thought I knew
She must have thought so too
Before I say goodbye...
Just tell me why did I give just a little but more
And take just a little bit less
And try just a little bit harder
When it's all just wasted love
Why did you kiss me that way?
Why did you stay?
Now it's all just wasted love
Looking back now it's all making sense
When you said she was only a friend
Friends who were making love
Was it worth breaking up?
All the answers I don't want to know
I'll keep asking for, after I go
The flowers they came too late
You've turned the love to hate (ohh)
It's your turn now to cry
Just tell me why did I give just a little but more
And take just a little bit less
And try just a little bit harder
When it's all just wasted love
Why did you kiss me that way?
Why did you stay?
Now it's all just wasted love
We can try and lie, but we both know
Too many things have changed
The memory of her in your arms
Is driving me insane
The shattered dream just breaks my heart
I can't go on this way
I will never look at you the same
You wear a different face
Just tell me why did I give just a little but more
And take just a little bit less
And try just a little bit harder
When it's all just wasted love
Why did you kiss me that way?
Why did you stay?
Now it's all just wasted love
WORLD WITHOUT YOU
***************
Days and nights and nights and days,In silent shades of lazy grays.
I call your name.
It's all the same. Sitting, staring at the ceiling,
dripping painted pictures peeling,
from my walls,
the time just crawls.
Was it yesterday?
I don't know, was I dreaming (dreaming)
or did I lose everything
I believed in?
If you could only see what I see
Every time you leave.
Imagine a world with no sky
Imagine the ocean run dry
Imagine and you'll see the view
of my world without you
Imagine no sun and no rain
Imagine that each day's the same
It doesn't matter what I do
In a world without you
Doers doing, thinkers thinking
Lonely lovers lips are sinking
In my tea
they're burning me
Wasted weepin' someone speakin'
through my head the bed is leakin'
Tears again
and there's no end (no,no)
Was it yesterday?
I don't know, was I dreaming (dreaming)
or did I lose everything
I believed in?
If you could only see what I see
Every time you leave.
Imagine a world with no sky.
Imagine the ocean run dry.
Imagine and you'll see the view
of my world without you
Imagine no sun and no rain
Imagine that each day's the same
It doesn't matter what I do
of my world without you
Imagine
Imagine
Imagine
Imagine
Imagine that the flowers won't bloom
Imagine that I couldn't be with you
nothing else can get me through
In a world without you
That's my world without you here
That's my world without you there
That's my world without you baby.
Imagine ...
TAKE YOU HIGHER (DOG NOISES)

Hello goodbye - do you wanna rideYou don't need to know where you're goin'
Take a trip through the old and the new
It's easy to see that you're jonesin'
Come fall into our journey
We'll raise our hands to life you up
So stay awake it's early
'Cuz there's always more tequila
Chorus:
Let me take you higher
Wanna be the birdy on our wire baby?
We can take you higher

So stay awake it's early
