Can't Shake You ( Rick Santers © Santoonz Music SOCAN)

I can't seem to get through to you
You love to waste my time
I tried my best to forget you
But you're always on my mind

Many times I weep, many times I will confess
I don't wanna end up like all the rest

I can't shake you, I can't shake you
You're just a memory, you're haunting me
I got it bad baby can't you see
I can't shake you, no! I can't shake you
You can do anything you want
But just come on home to me

I don't wanna surrender
Never give up without a fight
I wanna be a contender
In your search for Mister Right

I can't sleep at night, I got you on my mind, baby
I can't take the pressure, I'm feelin' inside

I can't shake you, I can't shake you
I can't hold it back its like a heart attack
I got it bad baby can't you see
I can't shake you, no! no! no! can't shake you
Do anything you want babe
Just come on home to me
Oh! woe!
You're still a part of me
I just can't seem to forget you
Deep in the heart of me
No matter what I do, woe!

I can't shake you, I can't shake you
You're just a memory, you're haunting me
I got it bad can't you see
I can't shake you, no! no! no! can't shake you
I can't get you outta my mind
Never gonna surrender, woman listen to me
All that I want is that you give me a chance
I'm in love baby can't you see
No!

Hotline ( Rick Santers © Santoonz Music SOCAN)

I'm in a state of emergency
And I feel as though I could die
Girl you gotta come through for me
If you want our love to survive

Can't you hear me callin' you
Why are you busy all the time?
I gotta hear your voice again
So don't hang me up and say goodbye

I need assistance, and you give me resistance

Give me a hotline to your heart
Connections are falling apart
I need a hotline to your heart
I hear the ringing now
If you don't answer than I'll try you again, and again

Such a smooth operator
You cut me off again and again
But I'm a long distance lover
I'm gonna reach you any way that I can

I need assistance, oh baby and you, you're giving me resistance

Give me a hotline to your heart
Connections are falling apart
I need a hotline to your heart
Can't you hear me callin' now
You don't answer so I'll try you again, and again
I'll try you again, again and again, woe!

I need assistance, oh baby and you, you're giving me resistance

Give me a hotline to your heart
Connections are falling apart
I need a hotline to your heart
I keep on callin' you never ever answer
I think I'm fallin' apart
I need a hotline to your heart
I keep on callin' can't you hear it ringing again, and again
I'll try you again, and again, woe!

High Risk ( Rick Santers © Santoonz Music SOCAN)

Hey buddy believe me, I got no money to my name
My boss wouldn't pay me, I tell you he's to blame

They cut me down in my prime
Then through me out in the streets
They got me all wrong for God's sake
Won't you give me a break, this is all a mistake

It's a, high risk situation
Goin' outta control, (high risk situation)
It's a, high risk situation
And I'm growin' old... before my time

Won't somebody help me, and please bail me out
They say I'm guilty, what's this all about?

They're putting a number on my picture
They took my fingerprints
I'm locked up in a cell, it's as cold as hell
And these guys ain't my friends

It's a, high risk situation
Goin' outta control, (high risk situation)
It's a, high risk situation
And I'm growin' old... before my time

It's a risk situation
Goin' outta control, (high risk situation)
It's a, high risk situation
And I'm growin' old... before my time

It's a, high risk situation
(High risk situation)
It's a, high risk situation
(High risk siuation)
Goin' outta my mind

Hate to Love You ( Rick Santers © Santoonz Music SOCAN)

I remember how we used to be
You were easy to please
Never a worry never a doubt
We were sailing in the breeze

Then somethin' came over you
And it made me wonder
I made up my mind and I knew what I had to do

I warned you not to come around anymore
‘Cause I hate to love you
I don't care if the whole world disagrees
I said "beat it!" but you pleaded for more
It's too late to love you
Release me from these chains and set me free
Let me be, ‘cause I hate to love you

I was sure I'd never see you again
I thought we had made it to the end
But you returned to the scene of the crime
You began to conjure up old times

Then somethin' came over me
And it made me wonder
It was killin' me, murder in the first degree

I warned you not to come around anymore
‘Cause I hate to love you
I don't care if the whole world disagrees
I said "beat it!" but you pleaded for more
It's too late to love you
Release me from these chains and set me free
Let me be, ‘cause I hate to love you
And I don't care if the whole world disagrees

Your head is tellin' you that I'm right
But your heart keeps sayin' I'm wrong
Then you learn that it's all a game
Love can trick your mind to think you need some more
But it can never be like before

I warned you not to come around anymore
‘Cause I hate to love you
I don't care if the whole world disagrees
I said "beat it!" but you pleaded for more
It's too late to love you
Release me from these chains and set me free
Let me be, woe! let me be, can't you see you're killin' me
‘Cause I hate to love you
I hate to love you
Ooh! it's too late to love you

Too Young to Die ( Rick Santers © Santoonz Music SOCAN)

He used to fight, eyes open wide
But fear was there, like a knife in his side
Battle came but he refused to hide

Nothing ventured, nothing gained
You'll never win until you play that game
That's what he said, as he lay dying in pain

Too young to die
Never knew the reasons why
If you could turn back the hands of time
He'd still be too young to die

Why did he go? he could not resist
The price was high, it was death he kissed
We hoped and prayed it wouldn't come to this, oh no!

Everything ventured, nothing gained
He was a pawn in a political game
Now he's gone and still the question remains

Too young to die
Never knew the reasons why
If you could turn back the hands of time
He'd still be too young to die

When can we make it end?
When will we fly the wind?

Too young to die
Never knew the reasons why
If you could turn back the hands of time
(If you could turn back the hands of time)
If you could turn back the hands of time
He'd still be too young to die

Black Magic ( Rick Santers © Santoonz Music SOCAN)

Time to cast the spells
That weaken the strongest of hearts
You can hear them sing a serenade
Whispering lies in the dark

Ooh, in a trance, you follow command
Such a tragic toll when you're unaware...so beware!

When the evil eyes
Observe you it will be the end
The supernatural
Disguises itself as your friend

Ooh, in a trance, you follow command
Such a tragic toll...so beware!

Black magic, voodoo in your soul
Black magic, takes your heart of gold
And leaves you so stone cold

The cries of the whispering wind
Fear of things unknown
The future is holding the secrets
The passing of time will unfold
They're stealing away with your heart

Black magic, voodoo in your soul
Black magic, takes your heart of gold
And leaves you so stone cold

All Right Now (P. Rogers and A. Fraser © Blue Mountain Music PRS / Island Music BMI)

There she stood in the street
Smilin' from her head to her feet
I said, "Hey! what is this?"
Now baby maybe maybe she's in need of a kiss
I said, "Hey, what's your name baby?
Maybe we can see things the same
Now don't you wait, or hesitate
Let's move before they raise the parking rates"

All right now, baby it's a all right now
All right now, baby it's a all right now

I took her home, to my place
Watching every move on her face
She said, "Look, what's your game, baby
Are you tryin' to put me in shame?"
I said, "Slow, don't go so fast
Don't you think that love can last?"
She said, "Love! Lord above!
Now you're tryin' to trick me in love"

All right now, baby it's a all right now
All right now, baby it's a all right now

All right now, baby it's a all right now
All right now, baby it's a all right now

She waits for me to try and save her
She's all alone in her dark, lonely room
Her fantasy becomes the moment
She hopes the ending is just what she needs to make it through

Baby blue

Her diamond eyes invite me over
The situation is all her control
She makes me feel as if I owe her
But something tells me there's more than meets the eye

Oh! when she holds me
I feel her fire destroy me

Baby blue
I leave you in the morning
But I'll stay with you this evening
Baby blue

I wait for her to try and save me
I'm all alone in my dark lonely room
My fantasy becomes the moment
Oh! I hope the ending is just what I need

Oh! when you hold me, ya!
Hold me till your fire destroys me

Baby blue
I leave you in the morning
But I'll stay with you this evening
Baby blue

I am the captain on a ship of no return
Sailing unknown waters for the secrets I must learn
Guided by the heavens through the calm, the rain and storm
No thoughts of stopping 'till I reach that distant shore

I'm dreaming, of the man I used to be
Dreaming, it's the only way I'm free
I'm dreaming, of the days when we were young
And it seems like my tomorrow never comes

Far in the distance, a sight has caught my eyes
A strange horizon, under grey and threatening skies
Now the vision's fading, it's turning into haze
All so confusing, it keeps changing from day to day

I'm dreaming, of the man I used to be
Dreaming, it's the only way I'm free
I'm dreaming, of the days when we were young
And it seems like our tomorrow never comes

I'm dreaming, of the man I used to be
Dreaming, it's the only way I'm free
I'm dreaming, and when all is said and done
I wonder who tomorrow I'll become
Seems like my tomorrow never comes
Where will I be when dreams are done?

I could tell by they way that you sang that song
That you were leavin' me you said,"It's all wrong, so long!"
I just couldn't believe it when you walked out the door

I keep hopin'
I'll keep it open, baby
I'm hangin' on cause it feels so strong

I'm Stranded - reminded
I'm stranded all this time

Don't know the reasons why we couldn't work it out
And the answers I get they still leave me in doubt
Can't remember the day when it all turned about

Then it hit me
It wasn't meant to be
Just a fantasy, but reality

‘Cause I'm stranded - reminded
I'm stranded all this time
You're still on my mind

I'm callin' to you, too far away to hear
I need you here with me can't you see
I'm stranded all alone inside my dream

You can tell by the way that I'm singing my song
That I've been lonely and waiting for you too long, it's so wrong
I know the time has come for me to break away

Forget about you
I can live without you
I'll be movin' on ‘cause the feeling's gone

Don't have to be stranded - or reminded
That I'm stranded all this time
With you on my mind
