Changes lyrics

(Olivia Newton-John)

We said a million times we'd change
Can't bring myself to say those words again
A piper never changes tune
You can't grow apples on the moon

The hurtful things we say still penetrate
And whispered sorrys always come too late
Then the damage has been done
What are we going to tell our son?

I want to spare his broken heart
Break it gently that we'll live apart

Every Face Tells A Story lyrics

(M. Allison/P. Sills/D. Black)

There's no need for you to tell me
I can see the way you feel
I just know without you saying
What is a lie and what's real

Every face tells a story
It's hard to hide a lie
Every face tells a story
And yours is saying goodbye

Something's going on, and I know it
You can't keep it from me
Your smile cannot hide what you feel inside

Let It Shine lyrics

(Linda Hargrove)

A woman needs attention like the flowers need the sun
Without that attention, a woman feels undone
Now I'm like a flower that's been standin' in the rain
Hopin' and a-prayin' that the sun would shine again

Is there anybody out there who can shine?
Anytime would be fine
Is there anybody out there who can glow
And would like to see a little flower grow?

Love Song lyrics

The words I have to say
May well be simple but they're true
Until you give your love
There's nothing more that we can do
Love is the opening door
Love is what we came here for
No one could offer you more
Do you know what I mean?
Have your eyes really seen?

You say it's very hard
To leave behind the life we knew
But there's no other way
And now it's really up to you

Have You Never Been Mellow lyrics

He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother

-Written by B. Scott and B. Russell
-Peaked at #7 in 1970 as performed by the Hollies
-Peaked at #20 in 1970 as performed by Neil Diamond
-Peaked at #30 as the B-side to "Let It Shine"
in 1976 as performed by Olivia Newton-John

The road is long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows when
But I'm strong

Don't Cry For Me Argentina lyrics

(Andrew Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice)

It won't be easy; you'll think it's strange
When I try to explain how I feel
That I still need your love after all that I've done
You won't believe me; all you will see is a girl you once knew
Although she's dressed up to the nines
And its sixes and sevens with you

I had to let it happen; I had to change
Couldn't stay all my life down at heel

Please Mr. Please lyrics

Please Mr. Please
Olivia Newton-John
(Welch/Rostill)

In the corner of the bar there stands a jukebox
With the best of country music, old and new
You can hear your five selections for a quarter
And somebody else's songs when yours are through

I got good Kentucky whiskey on the counter
And my friends around to help me ease the pain

Something Better To Do lyrics

(John Farrar)

I try to be patient--I try not to moan
But it's driving me crazy trying to live here alone
My conversation gets nowhere when I talk to myself
I've lost my sense of humor somewhere here on the shelf

The moon is wasting its shine shining on me
Until I see you again
I won't be out in the moonlight
And I'll be sleeping by ten
The birds are wasting their song singing to me

Jolene lyrics

(Parton)

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you
Please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him
Just because you can

Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of amber green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your voice is soft like summer rain

The Air That I Breathe lyrics

(Hammond/Hazlewood)

If I could make a wish, I think I'd pass
Can't think of anything I need
No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound
Nothing to eat, no books to read
Making love with you has left me peaceful, warm, and tired
What more could I ask, there's nothing left to be desired
Peace came upon me and it leaves me weak
So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep

Don't Stop Believin' lyrics

(John Farrar)

You think the world should see things your way
Love, I know you, you think good fortune's here to stay
Love, I know you shined in everything you tried before
Your smile can open any door

But on those days when nobody wants to know you
And all your smiles keep falling on stoney ground
Don't stop believin', don't stop believin'
Don't stop believin', you'll get by

Kaking A Good Thing Better lyrics

(Peter Wingfield)

Although I know our love is going strong
Little surprises kind of help it along
We mustn't let our lives become routine
Don't do anything we don't mean

There is no limit on love at all
It can always get better the deeper you fall
I'm sure without that love we won't survive
So come on and show it; let's keep it alive

And we'll be making a good thing better

Little More Love lyrics

Night is dragging her feet
I wait alone in the heat.
I know, know that you'll have your way
When you have to go home
No's a word I can't say.
'Cause it gets me nowhere
to tell you 'no'.
And it gets me nowhere
to make you go.
Will a little more love
make you start depending?
Will a little more love bring us a happy ending?
Will a little more love make it right?

Magic lyrics

(John Farrar)

Come take my hand
You should know me
I've always been in your mind
You know that I'll be kind
I'll be guiding you

Building your dream
Has to start now
There's no other road to take
You won't make a mistake
I'll be guiding you

You have to believe we are magic
Nothin' can stand in our way
You have to believe we are magic
Don't let your aim ever stray

Physical lyrics

Rosie - We're talkin' to women over 35.

Olivia - You do a self-examination.

Rosie - We got another thing to keep you alive, give your boobs a squeeze!

Olivia - A mammogram makes sure that you have healthy breasts.

Rosie - No different than a cold waffle iron...

Olivia - Reminds me of having my blue jeans pressed.

Rosie - So make your move and please.

Suddenly lyrics

(John Farrar)

She walks in and I'm suddenly a hero
I'm taken in my hopes begin to rise
Look at me can't you tell I'd be so
Thrilled to see the message in your eyes
You make it seem I'm so close to my dream
And then suddenly it's all there

Suddenly the wheels are in motion
And I, I'm ready to sail any ocean
Suddenly I don't need the answers
