Hello, please ignore these lyrics. Mister Senator Bunker requested more
|
||
lyrics for his wonderful Apple II series "Ascii Express " ((c)1982 S.W.D.S.)
|
||
system. So, this is a compilation of various text file lyrics written at
|
||
various times throughout our history by various "typists". We at VANC0 do
|
||
not encourage suicide in any way, shape, or form unless your name is Ascii
|
||
Assassin. And if it is, you have won awards. Why doesn't anyone understand?

"HARD HABIT TO BREAK" from the Chicago album "Chicago 17" (1984)
|
||
Music and lyrics by Stephen Kipner and J. Parker, arranged bq David Foster
|
||
|
||
I guess I thought you'd be here forever
|
||
Another illusion I chose to create
|
||
You don't know what you got until it's gone
|
||
And I found out a little too late
|
||
|
||
I was acting as if you were lucky to have me
|
||
Doin' you a favor I hardly knew you were there
|
||
But then you were gone and it was all wrong
|
||
Had no idea how much I cared
|
||
|
||
Now being without you
|
||
Takes a lot of getting used to
|
||
Should learn to live with it
|
||
But I don't want to
|
||
Being without you
|
||
Is all a big mistake
|
||
Instead of getting easier
|
||
It's the hardest thing to take
|
||
I'm addicted to ya babe
|
||
You're a hard habit to break
|
||
|
||
You found someone else, you had every reason
|
||
You know I can't blame you for runnin' to him
|
||
Two people together but living alone
|
||
I was spreading my love too thin
|
||
|
||
After all of these years
|
||
I'm still trying to shake it
|
||
Doin' much better, they say that it just takes time
|
||
But deep in the night it's an endless fight
|
||
I can't get you out of my mind
|
||
|
||
Now being without you
|
||
Takes a lot of getting used to
|
||
You learn to live with it
|
||
But I don't want to
|
||
Being without you
|
||
Is all a big mistake
|
||
Instead of getting easier
|
||
It's the hardest thing to take
|
||
I'm addicted to ya babe
|
||
You're a hard habit to break
|
||
|
||
I can't go on just can't go on
|
||
I can't go on just can't go on
|
||
|
||
Being without you
|
||
Takes a lot of getting used to
|
||
Should learn to live with it
|
||
I don't want to
|
||
Being without you
|
||
Is all a big mistake
|
||
Instead of getting any easier
|
||
It's the hardest thing to take
|
||
I'm addicted to you
|
||
You're a hard habit to break

"DON'T LET IT END" from the STYX album "Kilroy Was Here" (1983)
|
||
Music and lyrics by Dennis DeYoung (Keyboards, Vocals) of STYX.
|
||
|
||
What can I do
|
||
Pictures of you still make me cry
|
||
Trying to live without your love
|
||
It's so hard to do
|
||
Some nights I'll wake up
|
||
I'll look at your pillow
|
||
Hoping that I'll see you there
|
||
But I get up each day, not much to say
|
||
I've nowhere to go
|
||
Loneliness fills me up inside
|
||
'Cause I'm missing you
|
||
So if you'll give us a chance to remember
|
||
The love we had once together
|
||
Wait and see, time is all that we really need
|
||
I'm praying you won't say no
|
||
I mean to tell you
|
||
|
||
Don't let it end
|
||
Baby we could have so much more
|
||
Don't let it end
|
||
Honey please don't walk out that door
|
||
|
||
I'm telling you baby, I made my mistakes
|
||
But I'll make you this promise to do what it takes
|
||
I'll be there to protect you and hold you tight
|
||
You got my lovin' baby, every single night
|
||
|
||
Don't let it end
|
||
I'm begging you, don't let it end this way
|
||
Don't let it end
|
||
I'm begging you, don't let it end this way
|
||
|
||
Don't let it end
|
||
Baby we could have so much more
|
||
Don't let it end
|
||
Honey please don't walk out that door
|
||
Don't let it end
|
||
I'm begging you, don't let it end this way
|
||
Don't let it end
|
||
I'm begging you, don't let it end this way- no, no, no
|
||
No, no, no
|
||
|
||
What will I do
|
||
If you say we're through
|
||
I need you to stay, honey
|
||
Don't let it end this way

"FORTRESS AROUND YOUR HEART" (Lyrics and music by Sting)
|
||
from Sting's solo album "The Dream of the Blue Turtles"
|
||
|
||
Under the ruins of a walled city
|
||
Crumbling towers in beams of yellow light
|
||
No flags of truce, no cries of pity
|
||
The siege guns had been pounding throught the night
|
||
It took a day to build the city
|
||
We walked through it's streets in the afternoon
|
||
As I returned across the fields I'd known
|
||
I recognized the walls that I once made
|
||
I had to stop in my tracks for fear
|
||
Of walking on the mines I'd laid
|
||
|
||
And if I've built this fortress around your heart
|
||
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
|
||
Then let me build a bridge
|
||
For I cannot fill the chasm
|
||
And let me set the battlements on fire
|
||
|
||
Then I went off to fight some battle
|
||
That I'd invented inside my head
|
||
Away so long for years and years
|
||
You probably thought or even wished that I was dead
|
||
While the armies all are sleeping
|
||
Beneath the tattered flag we'd made
|
||
I had to stop in my tracks for fear
|
||
Of walking on the mines I'd laid
|
||
|
||
And if I've built this fortress around your heart
|
||
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
|
||
Then let me build a bridge
|
||
For I cannot fill the chasm
|
||
And let me set the battlements on fire
|
||
|
||
This prison has now become your home
|
||
A sentence you seem prepared to pay
|
||
It took a day to build the city
|
||
We walked through it's streets in the afternoon
|
||
As I returned across the lands I'd known
|
||
I recognized the fields where I'd once played
|
||
I had to stop in my tracks for fear
|
||
Of walking on the mines I'd laid
|
||
|
||
And if I've built this fortress around your heart
|
||
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
|
||
Then let me build a bridge
|
||
For I cannot fill the chasm
|
||
And let me set the battlements on fire

|
||
"NO MORE LONELY HEARTS" from the "BROADSTREET" (1984) movie soundtrack
|
||
Written by Paul McCartney (look, he can still write music)
|
||
|
||
I can wait another day until I call you
|
||
You've only got my heart on a string
|
||
And everything a'flutter
|
||
|
||
But another lonely night might take forever
|

We've only |
