Can't Fight Fate lyrics

(Shelly Peiken, Steve Kimland, Kennan Keating)

Up all night
With thoughts I can't escape from
All the things you said
It's a one-way street this dead-end situation
Keeps running through my head

Now the thrill's gone
You're moving on
You say you really love me
But you must be going
It's too bad
It's to (damn) sad
But not enough to make me want to cry

(Antonina Armato, Rick Neigher)

No one could ever
Keep you better satisfied
And if I had a crystal ball
I'd show you all the future hides
But for now
Take a little time to know me
I swear I'm not stringing you along
I might be driving you crazy
But I wouldn't steer you wrong
I wouldn't steer you wrong
Wait for me boy
If we take it slow
We'll discover something greater

(Taylor Dayne, Ric Wake)

Didn't really want to say good-bye
I was torn between love and pride
You kissed the child in me
Went and brought about a lady
Lovin times always seen to change
I guess I'm a part to blame
We lost our eye to eye
Day and night I only cry
Well your pushing got the best of me
A time I'd thought I'd never leave
Lift the hands that had a hold on me

( Marvin Hamlisch, Alan Bergman, Marilyn Bergman)

Thought I was happy thought that my life was made
Guess I believed the colors of love just fade
But now that you're here I can see
What I thought was all over is still here inside of me
And I know the feeling
And I love the feeling
You're fannin the coals and the flame in my soul's all I know
Yes I know the feeling

(Taylor Dayne, Tommy Byrnes, Ric Wake)

Sometimes I stare and feel the heat of your eyes
And they burn me from deep down inside
Well that's okay, it just suits me fine
But I'm not that sure we're travelling on the same line

Cause when you hold me and you're holding me right
That's when you leave me, you leave me so light
Well it's just not fair, don't want to believe

(Diane Warren)

You can tell the truth
You can tell a lie
You can try to run from
What you feel inside
And tell yourself, tell yourself you don't need me

You can walk away
From what you know is right
Think you won't be thinkin about me at night
And tell yourself, tell yourself it'll be easy
And you might believe it
But don't be misleaded
You might think it will be that way, yay...

(Diane Warren)

When there's clouds hangin' in your sky
And they're just not lettin' any light in
And you feel like you'd like to give in
Don't you give up so soon
What you need is a friend to count on
What you got, baby you got someone
Who will stay when the rain is fallin'
And won't let it fall on you
I'll see you through
I'll cover you with a love so deep and warm and true

(Elliot Wolff, Gregg Tripp)

We need to lay in each other's arms
There's no where else to go
It's all so easy and I want you to know
There'll never be another one who could get this close to me
Everything you give to me is everything I've ever dreamed of

Even when you turn your back now
I can feel you reaching for me
Even when you walk away
I'll still know where you're hiding

(Diane Warren)

Saying goodbye is never an easy thing
But you never said, that you'd stay forever
So if you must go
Well, darlin', I'll set you free
But I know in time
That we'll be together
Oh, I won't try
To stop you now from leaving
Cause in my heart I know

(chorus)
Love will lead you back
Someday I just know that
Love will lead you back to my arms
Where you belong

(Taylor Dayne, Tommy Byrnes, Ric Wake)

Sometimes I stare and feel the heat of your eyes
And they burn me from deep down inside
Well that's okay, it just suits me fine
But I'm not that sure we're travelling on the same line

Cause when you hold me and you're holding me right
That's when you leave me, you leave me so light
Well it's just not fair, don't want to believe
