Ten O'Clock Postman

Ten o'clock postman
Bring me her letter
Ten o'clock postman
Make me feel better
Been so many days
Since that I've met her
Ten o'clock postman
Bring me her letter
Bring me her letter
I'm walking all over the room
Wonder why I don't stop biting my nails
Why carry this feeling of doom
A couple more hours and I'll get the mail
I'll get the mail
Finding it so hard to eat
The toast and the eggs they just don't taste the same
Hearing a noise in the street
I run to the window and cry out in vain
Remembering that she said for sure
I'll write you the minute I'll get off the plane
Nothing, not one single word
It must come this morning or I'll go insane
I'll go insane
Now it's been almost five days
Could she have sent it by air or by rail
I hear someone's comin' this way
This must be it, yes it must be the mail

Hey Johnny

Hey Johnny don't tell her
I think I saw her face today
Hey Johnny don't tell her
I thought my knees are made of clay
Don't tell her I've told you
I think I saw her face today
I miss her more and more each day
Meeting a friend
Hoping to hear that she's changed her mind
I try to pretend
I left her so far behind
Deep down inside
Holding back on my loathsome lies
Much more than pride
I'm aching for love in her dark blue eyes
Hey Johnny don't tell her
I think I saw her face today
Hey Johnny don't tell her
I thought my knees are made of clay
Don't tell her I've told you
I think I saw her face today
I miss her more and more each day
Whispering her name
Nothing's so sweet when the life's grown dim
I am to blame
Letting her out to him
Maybe I'll try
To show the world that I don't really care
Look in my eyes
There you can see that pain everywhere
Hey Johnny don't tell her
I think I saw her face today
Hey Johnny don't tell her
I thought my knees are made of clay
Don't tell her I've told you
I think I saw her face today
I miss her more and more each day.

Give Me Your Love
03:39

I keep knockin' doors
One by one
I keep climbing force
'Til the day is done
Kept goin' on by your inspiration
Driven on by my 'magination
But I can't hold it back
Just can't hold it back
Give me your love
Just give me your love
Your love is mine, my creation
There to find inspiration
I can see your face
Inside my mind
I will find the place
I'll read the signs
I'm getting all of my information
Closing in on my last creation
But I can't hold it back
Just can't hold it back
Give me your love
Just give me your love
Your love is mine, my creation
There to find inspiration.

Oh Susie

Oh Susie, we've run out of time
Oh Susie, say what's on your mind
We've got nowhere to run,
We were much too young
Love is warm and understanding
When you're seventeen
Love is cold
Kills your dreams and schemes
Much too young the words are comin'
Like a neon-light
Off and on Bringin' back last night
Bringin' back last night
I'm in love and nothing else
Can make me feel this way
Now I'm lost
Not much more to say
Radio, the song they're playing,
Can’t be rightly sung
Off and on
Singin' much too young
Singin' much too young

Darling, You're My Girl
03:43
|

|
You are my real love
And you're always last
Inside my mind
Close off the past
Something you got
Nothing can change
Something you got
Makes it so strange, so strange
Darling you're my girl
My broken heart will never mend
Darling you're my girl
Don't try to tell me it's the end
I wanna hold you again and again
Stay with me
You keep me alive
And dry all my tears
A part of my dreams
That kills all my fears
Something within
Makes it all true
Something within
Holds on to you, to you
Darling you're my girl
My broken heart will never mend
Darling you're my girl
Don't try to tell me it's the end
I wanna hold you again and again
Stay with me.

She Wants Me
03:07
|

|
Crying out she said she wants me
Showing off like the refugee
Thinking that love is a game
Trying hard she now justifies
Bad to see that her restless eyes
Telling me I am to blame
Baby, I've been through this before
And I don't want it any more
And our love has come from good to bad
And now I'm glad - I know that it's time to go
You don't seem to have understood
When I said I'll be gone for good
Baby, this time it's for real
Baby, I've been through this before
And I don't want it any more
And our love has come from good to bad
And now I'm glad - I know that it's time to go
Seems to me something's just not changed
You and I - always unarranged
Baby, I know this one here
Crying out she said she wants me
Showing off like the refugee
Thinking that love is a game

Angel on Wheels

Oh-oh my angel on wheels
(Angel)
My little angel on wheels
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
I get my rolling skates
(Angel)
And then we fly, roll on all eight
Angel
Her hair and T-shirt were both black
And in my mind the one-way track
And my eyes have stuck as glued
When I saw the way she moved
It’s hard to say just how it feels
When you meet that angel on wheels
When you see the sunny smile
Rolling fast in the flashy style
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Oh-oh my angel on wheels
(Angel)
My little angel on wheels
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
I get my rolling skates
(Angel)
And then we fly — roll on all eight
Angel
It didn’t start off all too well
I stick, I stumble and I fell
But in the end I saw the light
And we roll it to the night
It’s hard to say just how it feels
When you meet that angel on wheels
When you see that sunny smile
Rolling fast in the flashy style

Family Delight

Little sister, mama, you have grown
You send me rocking like a knockout low
It's hard to handle, you outrace/outface me
Sixteen candles drives me crazy now
Little sister, you got 'normous eyes
But they not showing her fantastic lies
Before I kiss you let me first say
I wanna wish you happy birthday now
Family delight
At night
Little sister, such a precious pearl
Why don't you let me show you to the world
You hold a power to enslave me
A brand new flower here to save me now.
