There were nights when the wind was so cold
That my body froze in bed
If I just listened to it right outside the window
There were days when the sun was so cruel
That all the tears turned to dust
And I just knew my eyes were drying up forever
I finished crying in the instant that you left
And I can’t remember where or when or how
And I banished every memory you and I had ever made
But when you touch me like this
And you hold me like that
I just have to admit
That it’s all coming back to me
When I touch you like this
And I hold you like that
It’s so hard to believe but
It’s all coming back to me
It’s all coming back
It’s all coming back to me now
There were moments of gold
And there were flashes of light
There were things I’d never do again
But then they’d always seemed right
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than any laws allow
Baby, baby
If I kiss you like this
And if you whisper like that
It was lost long ago
But it’s all coming back to me
If you want me like this
And if you need me like that
It was dead long ago
But it’s all coming back to me
It’s so hard to resist
And it’s all coming back to me
I can barely recall
But it’s all coming back to me now
But it’s all coming back
There were those empty threats and hollow lies
And whenever you tried to hurt me
I just hurt you even worse and so much deeper
There were hours that just went on for days
When alone at last we’d count up all the chances
That were lost to us forever (Forever)
But you were history with the slamming of the door
And I made myself so strong again somehow
And I never wasted any of my time on you since then
But if I touch you like this
And if you kiss me like that
It was so long ago
But it’s all coming back to me
If you touch me like this
And if I kiss you like that
It was gone with the wind
But it’s all coming back to me
It’s all coming back, it’s all coming back to me now
There were moments of gold
And there were flashes of light
There were things we’d never do again
But then they’d always seemed right
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than all your laws allow
Baby, baby, baby
When you touch me like this
And when you hold me like that
It was gone with the wind
But it’s all coming back to me
When you see me like this
And when I see you like that
Then we see what we want to see
All coming back to me
The flesh and the fantasies
All coming back to me
I can barely recall
But it’s all coming back to me now
If you forgive me all this
If I forgive you all that
We forgive and forget
And it’s all coming back to me now
When you see me like this
And when I see you like that
Then we see what we want to see
All coming back to me
The flesh and the fantasies
All coming back to me
I can barely recall
But it’s all coming back to me now
And when you kiss me like this
(It’s all coming back to me now)
And when I touch you like that
(It’s all coming back to me now)
And if you do it like this
(It’s all coming back to me now)
And if we
I put a spell on you
Because you’re mine
You better stop the things you do
I tell you, I ain’t lying
I ain’t lying
You know I can’t stand it
You’re running around
You know better daddy
I can’t stand it ’cause you put me down
Oh, no
I put a spell on you
Because you’re mine
You know I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you anyhow
And I don’t care
If you don’t want me
I’m yours right now
I put a spell on you
Because you’re mine
You know I can’t stand it
You’re running around
You know better daddy
I can’t stand it ’cause you put me down
Ooh-hoo-ooh
I put a spell on you
Because you’re mine
Because you’re mine
Because you’re mine
Oh
Yeah
We we’re dust in a world
Of grim obsession.
We wouldn’t taunt from mouth
Like an isolation.
We we’re pulled from our path
Of least resistance.
And the songs we sang
What became of us?
We’re here waiting for you
We’re here waiting for you
We are yours
We’re waiting for you
We are yours
We’re waiting for you
We all pray for the end
For the god to take us.
We we’re falling down
One by one.
We we’re weak and the fear
Was all around us.
The machines screamed from
Moon to sun.
We’re here waiting for you
We’re here waiting for you
We are yours
We’re waiting for you
We are yours
We’re waiting for you
Where have all the good men gone
And where are all the gods?
Where’s the streetwise Hercules
To fight the rising odds?
Isn’t there a white knight upon a fiery steed
Late at night, I toss and I turn
And I dream of what I need
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the end of the night
He’s gotta be strong, and he’s gotta be fast
And he’s gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the morning light
He’s gotta be sure, and it’s gotta be soon
And he’s gotta be larger than life
Larger than life
Somewhere after midnight
In my wildest fantasy
Somewhere, just beyond my reach
There’s someone reaching back for me
Racing on the thunder
And rising with the heat
It’s gonna take a Superman to sweep me off my feet, yeah
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the end of the night
He’s gotta be strong, and he’s gotta be fast
And he’s gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the morning light
He’s gotta be sure, and it’s gotta be soon
And he’s gotta be larger than life
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the end of the night
Up where the mountains meet the heavens above
Out where the lightning splits the sea
I could swear there is someone, somewhere watching me
Through the wind and the chill and the rain
And the storm and the flood
I can feel his approach like a fire in my blood
(Like a fire in my blood, like a fire in my blood
Like a fire in my blood, like a fire in my blood, blood)
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the end of the night
He’s gotta be strong, and he’s gotta be fast
And he’s gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the morning light
He’s gotta be sure, and it’s gotta be soon
And he’s gotta be larger than life
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the end of the night
He’s gotta be strong, and he’s gotta be fast
And he’s gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the morning light
He’s gotta be sure, and it’s gotta be soon
And he’s gotta be larger than life
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the end of the night
She’s totally committed, to major independence
But she’s a lady through and through
She gives them quite a battle, all that they can handle
She’ll bruise some, she’ll hurt some too
But oh, they love to watch her strut
Oh, they do respect her, but
They love to watch her strut, uh, oh yeah
Sometimes they want to leave her, just give up and leave her
But they would never play that scene
In spite of all her talking, once she starts in walking
The lady will be all they ever dreamed
Oh, they love to watch her strut
Oh, they’d kill to make the cut
They love to watch her strut
Oh yeah
Love to watch
Watch her strut, now
Oh, they love to watch her strut
Oh, they do respect her, but
They love to watch her strut, uh, oh yeah
Love the strut
Love to, love to
Love to watch her strut
Love to watch her strut, oh
Your strut, ooh
Love your strut
They love to watch her strut
Love to watch her strut
Oh yeah
They love, they love to watch her strut
… Jimmy’s in the back with a pocket of high
If you listen close you can hear him cry
… Oh Lord, heaven knows, we belong way down below
(Sing it) Oh Lord, heaven knows, we belong way down below
Way down below, way down below
… Judy’s in the front seat picking up trash
Living on the dole, gotta make that cash
Won’t be pretty, won’t be sweet
She’s just sitting here on her feet
… Singing oh Lord, heaven knows, we belong way down below
(Go) Oh Lord, heaven knows, we belong way down below
(Sing) Oh Lord, tell us so, we belong way down below
… Oh Lord, tell us so, we belong way down below
Way down below, way down below

… I’ve had better days, man
I’ve seen better days
I’ve had better ways, man
I know better ways
… One, two, three and four
The devil’s knocking at your door
Caught in the eye of a dead man’s lie
Start your life with your head held high
… Now you’re on your knees with your head hung low
Big man tells you where to go
Tell them it’s good, tell them okay
Don’t do a goddamn thing they say
… Oh Lord, heaven knows, we belong way down below
Oh Lord, tell us so, we belong way down below
… Way down below, way down below
Way down below, way down below
… I’ve seen better ways, man
I know better ways
I’ve seen better days, man
I’ve had better days

If you listen close you can hear the crying

Oh Lord, tell us so, we belong way down below
Oh Lord, heaven knows, we belong way down below
… Oh Lord, tell us so, we belong way down below
Way down below, way down below
