PETER CRISS SOLO

I'M GONNA LOVE YOU

Don't let me find you

Sleepin' with another man

Say you're gonna be true

And stay and love me like you can

'Cause I really love you and it's true

I'm gonna love you rain or come shine

Honey, won't you tell me

You don't want nobody else

Don't you tear my heart out

And lay it on your shelf

'Cause I really love you and it's true

I'm gonna love you rain or come shine

And I'm gonna love you (gonna love you)

Rain or come shine (rain or come shine)

You know you're gonna find me (gonna find me)

Around you all the time (time)

'Cause I really love you and it's true

I'm gonna love you rain or come shine

Rain or come shine, rain or come shine

Rain or come shine, rain or come shine

Rain or come shine, rain or come shine

YOU MATTER TO ME

Look up, the sky is crying

Endless tears

Feels like my whole world's dying

It hurts when you're not here

'Cause you matter to me and that's why

You still matter to me

And that's the only reason I need, to get by

You still matter to me, yes you do

I ain't no good at talkin'

So girl I'm tellin' you straight

My heart feels just like an orphan

I hope I'm not too late

'Cause you matter to me and that's why (and that's why)

You still matter to me

And that's the only reason I need, to get by

You still matter to me, yes you do

If I could have just one wish

I'd stand you in my place

Then you'd know how much I miss you

You'll never be replaced

'Cause you matter to me and that's why (and that's why)

You still matter to me

And that's the only reason I need, to get by

You still matter to me, yes you do

You still matter to me

And that's the only reason I need, to get by

You still matter to me, yes you do

'Cause you matter to me, yes you do

And that's the only reason I need, to get by (get by)

'Cause you matter to me, ain't no lie

And that's the only reason I need, to get by (get by)

'Cause you matter to me, yes you do

And that's the only reason I need, ain't no lie

TOSSIN' AND TURNIN'

I couldn't sleep at all last night

Just a-thinkin' 'bout you

Baby, things weren't right

'Cause I was

Tossin' and turnin', turnin' and tossin'

Tossin' and turnin', tossin' and turnin' all night

I kicked the blankets on the floor

Turned my pillow upside down

I never felt this way before

'Cause I was

Tossin' and turnin', turnin' and tossin'

Tossin' and turnin', tossin' and turnin' all night

Jumped out of bed, turned on the lights

Pulled down the shade, went to the kitchen for a bite

Rolled up the shade, turned down the lights

I jumped back in the bed, was the middle of the night

The clock downstairs was strikin' three

Couldn't get you off my mind

I heard the milkman on the street

'Cause I was

Tossin' and turnin', turnin' and tossin'

Tossin' and turnin', tossin' and turnin' all night

Jumped out of bed, turned on the lights

Pulled down the shade, went to the kitchen for a bite

Rolled up the shade, turned down the lights

Jumped back in the bed, was the middle of the night

The clock downstairs was strikin' three

Couldn't get you off my mind

I heard the milkman on the street

'Cause I was

Tossin' and turnin', turnin' and tossin'

Tossin' and turnin', tossin' and turnin' all night

Tossin' and turnin' (tossin' and turnin')

Tossin' and turnin' (tossin' and turnin')

Turnin' and tossin' (turnin' and tossin')

Tossin' and turnin' (tossin' and turnin')

Tossin' and turnin' (tossin' and turnin')

Turnin' and tossin' (tossin' and turnin')

Tossin' and turnin' (tossin' and turnin'), oh

Tossin' and turnin' (tossin' and turnin')

Turnin' and tossin' (tossin' and turnin')

Tossin' and turnin' (tossin' and turnin')

Turnin' and tossin' (tossin' and turnin')

(Tossin' and turnin')

HOOKED ON ROCK AND ROLL

The boy could play before he learned to grow

Worked in a band who had no name at all

Every mornin' at the break of dawn

You could see him draggin' home his drums

I was vaccinated with a little needle

And I'm hooked on rock and roll

They called the family doctor to see what he could do

Doc said "No you can't cure his soul

Once he's infected with the blues"

So I travelled 'round from town to town singin' out the news

I was vaccinated with a little needle

And I'm hooked on rock and roll

When you find you got no mind

To work from nine to five

Find the back beat, set your heart free

And feel that music runnin' through your feet

Mama told me long ago

"Ain't no future in that rock 'n' roll"

And I said "Hey mama, it's burnin' hot inside my soul"

It's like a fever that won't cool down

I've been addicted since I heard that sound

I was vaccinated with a little needle

And I'm hooked on rock and roll

When you find you got no mind (bop shoo bop, bop bop shoo bop)

To work from nine to five

Find the back beat, set your heart free

(Bop shoo bop, bop bop shoo bop)

And feel the music runnin' through your feet

Mama told me long ago

"Ain't no future in that rock 'n' roll"

And I said "Hey mama, it's burnin' hot inside me soul"

It's like a fever that won't cool down

I've been addicted since I heard that sound

I was vaccinated with a little needle

And I'm hooked on rock and roll, yeah

Hooked on rock and roll

(I've been addicted since I heard that sound)

Hooked on rock and roll

Hooked on rock and roll

(It's like a fever that won't cool down)

Hooked on rock and roll, yeah, yeah, yeah

Hooked on rock and roll

(It's burnin, burnin, burnin in my soul)

Hooked on rock and roll

Hooked on rock and roll

(I've been addicted since I heard that sound)

Hooked on rock and roll

Hooked on rock and roll

Hooked on rock and roll

Hooked on

I CAN'T STOP THE RAIN

This is New York, yo

(It's getting dark)

Night falls on the city

Finds me all alone

Makes me wonder

Should I just go on home

And I walk up the stairs

To see if you're sill there

Would you mind if

I found you alone

Then a cold wind came callin'

Strange how it knew it'd bother me

See the night would fade

But the pain's gonna stay

Makes me wonder

Have you ever made love to me

I can't stop the rain, here it comes again

Lightnin' strikes across the sky

Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again

Lightnin' only blinds my eyes

Ain't it sad

When the only love I ever had

Just slips away

Right through my fingers

Ain't it a shame when I think of your name

The only memory I have is it

I can't stop the rain, here it comes again

Lightnin' strikes across the sky

Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again

It takes a witch to curse that goddamn sky

I can't stop the rain, here it comes again

Lightnin' strikes across the sky

Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again

'Cause lightnin' only blinds my eyes

Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again

'Cause lightnin' only blinds my eyes

Can't stop it, blinds my eyes
