Oh no, lonliness Wait a minute baby, I’m serious tanding against the wall just aint any fun Movie on tv, dinner for one I can count the days but I can’t count the tears Every night I sleep alone I age another yea There’s a fire inside of me That no one’s ever seen I never lost control until you took control of me (You make me wild at heart) Wild at heart the way I want to be (You make me wild at heart) Wild at heart whenever you put your hands on me (You make me wild at heart) Visions of you is all my heart can see Do you want to be wild at heart with me? Uh oh, hopefulness I’ve built these walls, brick by brick Sealed with memories of good love gone bad Inside, I’ve placed everything I ever thought I’d want to have But lately I’m noticing it’s getting colder at night When the world tells you that love is just a dream, it’s hard to see the light There’s a lie I tell myself I won’t find nobody else To fill this empty space inside of me (You make me wild at heart) Wild at heart the way I want to be (You make me wild at heart) Wild at heart whenever you put your hands on me (You make me wild at heart) Visions of you is all my heart can see Do you want to be wild at heart with me?

I speak up, no one ever hears a thing They said assert yourself, play the game or you’ll never win But I can’t find success, cause I can’t hold a job I live on one high to the next Just tryin’ to hold myself together I’m livin’ in fear I’m livin’ in paranoia I have no internal sense of confidence Nobody to rely on I’m out in the cold I’m livin’ with uneasy feelings And I try so hard to change But there’s somethin’ in my way Addictive personality, addictive personality Addictive personality, addictive personality Lay down beside me I need somethin’ to hold on to I’m burnin’ up inside Why can’t you feel the heat? Do what you have to Cause I can’t do anything Without a little push Oh, I know my ship is sinking I’m livin’ in fear I’m livin’ in total darkness I have no internal sense of confidence No money in my pocket I do what I want But what I get is never enough And I don’t wanna die I just wanna have a good time Addictive personality, addictive personality Addictive personality, addictive personality Addictive personality It’s got a hold of me I don’t wanna party on my own Addictive personality I’m the prettiest mess you’ll ever see Don’t let me party on my own Addictive personality, baby Addictive personality, maybe You could be the one to change it Take my heart and please don’t’ break it

Moonlighting 05:27
Some people work a lot for a little pay Some people like to sleep all day Some of them watch the TV But all these people have someone to do these with A hand to hold and a love to give I’m not one of these Seems to be there’s a different route for me I don’t do lasting love you see I play a different card I’m moonlighting Love’s not a full-time gig for me I’ll go through all the motions Then give them up to be alone It’s easy for me to have confidence in this sort of thing No love lost, just a little fling Keep it under control I won’t concern myself with old-fashioned notions Fairy tales and magic potions I want harsh reality Someone told me, you can drown in the sea of love I tried but when I looked above Saw a blue moon lonely as me And I’m still moonlighting Love’s not a full-time gig for me I’ll go through all the motions Then give them up to be alone Moonlighting, moonlighting I’m a romance moonlighter Taking temporary lovers They have no hold on me No sense of permanency But it’s just a moonlight cover Only you know why I bother Been this way ever since the day you walked away from me I keep thinking of that summer I loved you but you found another For me there could be so many others But without you I’ll still be Moonlighting, moonlighting, moonlighting

Cruisin 4 U 05:45
I’m cruisin’ through town tonight Do you go walkin’ out after midnight? Because I’m goin’ down to a place I know The park by the lake Where the boys all go Did I meet you there one time? With sunglasses on, you were lookin’ so good Lookin’ like you walked right off of a department store window Did I meet you once before? At the shopping mall, where the girls all go You had another hand in yours but your eyes were somewhere else White lines and neon signs they can lead a man astray Meet me in the park tonight we can hide ourselves away Just like it never happened your secret’s safe with me I’m walkin’ right in front of you There’s no talkin’ when I talk to you I can’t tell you what I’m tryin’ to do Keep cruisin’ til I find someone who looks like you Aw, baby I’m still cruisin’ Yeah, I’m cruisin’ for you And I’ll never ever find a one who looks like you Aw, baby I’m still cruisin’ Yeah, I’m cruisin’ for you Cause I’ll never ever find a one who looks like you You saw me cruisin’ across the tracks I turned to you but you turned your back Don’t leave me playin’ the same ol’ role All revved up with nowhere to go I cruise past the other guys They got nothin’ on you, so I leave them behind They told me you been here before they passed ya up cause you’re too shy Well I, too can recall a time When I hid from my love And to myself I was blind All the passion in your heart can build a prison in your mind I don’t a Bible to tell me right from wrong I don’t need a porno, baby, to show me how it’s done It don’t have to last forever we can do it just for fun Don’t leave me hangin’ round here to walk the night alone I’ll cruise until I get lost and then you can take me home I’m walkin’ right in front of you There’s no talkin’ when I talk to you I can’t tell you what I’m tryin’ to do Keep cruisin’ til I find someone who looks like you do Aw, baby I’m still cruisin’ Yeah, I’m cruisin’ for you And I’ll never ever find a one who looks like you Aw, baby I’m still cruisin’ Yeah, I’m cruisin’ for you Cause I’ll never ever find a one who looks like you Aw, baby I’m still cruisin’ Cruisin’ for you Why’d ya have to leave me cruisin’ round lookin’ for you
