Hold Back The Tears
All My Love To You
If It Takes All Night

Don't Stand Another Chance
Standin' on the edge of time 'bout to lose my mind
Because you try to take him away from me, but I won't let it be
You just walk into my life and try to take away my only prize
But you better get ready 'cause his love is right here with me

You don't stand another chance
You don't stand another chance
You don't stand another chance
You don't stand another chance

He belongs to me, just wait and see
Take him in your arms, give him love, watch him run to me
Nothin' you can do or say can make him look your way
So you better get ready, 'cause he's gonna come walking my way

You don't stand another chance
You don't stand another chance
Oh, you don't stand
You don't stand another chance
You don't stand, baby
You don't stand another chance

Aaow!
Ah, ah, ah, ah

You don't stand another chance
You don't stand
You don't stand another chance

Sit and wait at home, don't you leave me alone
(I know I've been mean to you, baby)
You'll be with him when he's up,
not down, to keep him on the ground
Let me tell you something that's true,
he's not in love with you So you better get ready 'cause
there's nothing coming down your way

You don't stand another chance
Not a chance
You don't stand another chance
You don't stand, baby
You don't stand another chance
Don't stand, baby
You don't stand another chance
You don't stand

Aaow!
(You don't stand)

Spoken:
Well, you know somebody's gotta lose
We all can't win
Maybe next time, (another chance) okay
Aaow!
Ha ha ha ha, you guys are crazy

You don't stand another chance
You don't stand
You don't stand another chance
You don't stand, baby
You don't stand another chance
You don't stand
You don't stand another chance, another chance
You don't stand another chance
You don't stand another chance
You don't stand another chance
(Don't stand, baby)

Two To The Power Of Love (Duet With Cliff Richard)
Janet:
I know we just met but I feel like I've known you before

Cliff:
There's something about you my heart has been searching for

Janet:
I don't understand it, it's over my head

Cliff:
So don't try to solve it, just feel it instead

Both:
Oooh

Both on chorus:
It isn't really such a mystery
Anyway you add it up it turns out to be
Attraction automatic, a simple mathematic
Two to the power of love

Janet:
I look in your eyes and everything falls into place

Cliff:
You don't have say it, it's written all over your face

Janet:
By my calculation, I'm falling for you

Cliff:
It's a perfect equation

Both:
And I know it's true, ooh

Both on chorus:
It isn't really such a mystery
Anyway you add it up it turns out to be
Attraction automatic, a simple mathematic
Two to the power of love

Both:
It's complicated but it's easy to see
A combination that was meant to be, ooh
It's something you can count on

Both on chorus:
It isn't really such a mystery (it isn't really such a mystery)
Anyway you add it up it turns out to be (anyway you add it up)
Attraction automatic, a simple mathematic
Two to the power of love

Both:
It isn't really just a shot in the dark
(it isn't really just a shot in the dark)
Somebody must've worked it out on the chart (
somebody must've worked it out on the chart)
Attraction automatic, a simple mathematic
Two to the power of love

Both on chorus:
It isn't really such a mystery
(it isn't really such a mystery) Anyway you add it up it turns out to be
(anyway you add it up)
Attraction automatic, a simple mathematic
Two to the power of love

Dream Street
And a bus comes in on the Hollywood freeway early dawn
A face gets out alone at this scared end of town
Such a beating of the heart and a hope deep down inside
They say the streets are paved with gold
but it sure looks kind of cold outside

Steppin' on the sidewalk with the stars beneath her feet
Just a handful of tourist is all she is bound to meet
So tough to find a room and it takes more than a day
And it's not too nice and the price is high
Somehow she can't help but cry
In a world full of fantasies, reality can hurt
It's about the fiction, the odds won't go with her on

Dream Street, Dream Street
Will it all come true or will it all just fade away?
Dream Street, Dream Street
Well it's hard to find and it won't let hope escape
From Dream Street

And a year goes by and the situation she can't stand
Came to be an actress but a waitress is all she lands
Her colleague smiles at her, through the wrinkles of her face
She came here too, with the self-same goals,
she never got out of this place

She makes her mind up, she's gonna leave that very night
It's been so long now since she's felt that good inside
She calls the service line, there's a message left for her
She's gonna star in a movie part, suddenly it's all worthwhile
Oh, a little bit closer now, but really is still too far
Is it always out of reach, that bright and shiny star of

Dream Street, Dream Street
Will it all come true or will it all just fade away?
Dream Street, Dream Street
Well it's hard to find and it won't let hope escape
From Dream Street

Dream Street, Dream Street
Will it all come true or will it all just fade away?
Dream Street, Dream Street
Well it's hard to find and it won't let hope escape
Dream Street, Dream Street
Will it all come true or will it all just fade away?
Dream Street, Dream Street
Well it's hard to find and it won't let hope escape
Dream Street, Dream Street
Will it all come true or will it all just fade away?
Dream Street, Dream Street
Well it's hard to find and it won't let hope escape

Communication
It's traveling faster than the eye can see
Information in the sky
Messages beamed across the atmosphere
Transmitted by you and I

Communication
Say the words
Are you there?
Can I be heard?
Person to person
Heart to heart
Come together
Worlds apart

Oh, thank heaven for the microwave
Can't ignore technology
If it's so easy to communicate
Then how come you're not hearing me?

Communication
Say the words
Are you there?
Can I be heard?
Station to station
Coast to coast
Face to face
Will tell you most

(Electronic voice: Do leave a message, sorry, sorry, sorry)

Now we're livin' in the computer age
Your picture's on my video
I keep your number in my database
Turn it onto audio

Communication
Say the words
Are you there?
Can I be heard?
(oh, just say that you need me)
Person to person
Heart to heart
Come together
Worlds apart

Communication
Say the words
Are you there?
Can I be heard?
Station to station
Coast to coast
Face to face
Will tell you most

Communication
Say the words

Heart to heart
Come together

Heart to heart
Come together
Worlds apart (you don't care none for me baby)

Hold Back The Tears
So sad, but there's nothin' that I can do
Things are so bad, you forget every word I've spoken to you
Love is when it touches you down inside
Why wait, are you lookin' for somewhere to hide?

You've gotta hold back the tears
Soon you will discover,
maybe there could be someone who cares for you
You've gotta hold back the tears
Don't have to say never,
love will come to those who are prepared
To give it back

Time will never be on your side
Listen, it could be your only chance to survive
This love is waiting to call you home
Don't wait, you'll never be on your own

You've gotta hold back the tears
Soon you will discov
