(carly simon)

we can never know about the days to come
but we think about them anyway
and i wonder if i’m really with you now
or just chasing after some finer day.

anticipation, anticipation
is making me late
is keeping me waiting

and i tell you how easy it is to be with you
and how right your arms feel around me.
but i rehearsed those words just late last night
when i was thinking about how right tonight might be.

anticipation, anticipation
is making me late
is keeping me waiting

and tomorrow we might not be together
i’m no prophet, i don’t know natures way
so i’ll try to see into your eyes right now
and stay right here, ’cause these are the good old days.

(simon/baker/kimball)

straight from the hall of fame
one of the worlds great lovers
darling you’re not to blame
i’m just sorry that you’ve been discovered
when i look in you eyes
i know hundreds of girls have been there
i tried to be civilized
and pretend i don’t care

take me away, burn out the past
and hold me
to calm my jealousy
hold me
forget your history
i need you to show me
we’ll be like adam and eve
that you love me
i wish you had never loved anyone but me

breathless and overcome
knowin’ my desire is showing
passion can make you dumb
but does so much to keep you going
turn off the songs of the past romance and

hold me
to calm my jealousy
hold me
forget your history
i need you to show me
we’ll be like adam and eve
that you love me
i wish you had never loved anyone but me

with too many options
you spin like a top
you spin like a top - until you drop
but now that you’ve dropped i’m gonna pick you up
and love you until we just can’t stop
and love you until we just can’t stop

(carly simon)

are you ticklish
or did i just hit a funny bone
are you ticklish
are we really alone?

do you like me
or am i just hoping for too much
do you like me
do you like to touch
do you like me

i hear there’s another side to you
well there’s another side to me too
let’s get over to the other side
real soon

i hear there’s an underneath to you
well there’s an underneath to me too
let’s get down underneath
real soon

are you lonesome
well everybody’s lonesome
so it’s safe to assume you’re lonesome
but are you ticklish
are you ticklish

(herman hupfeld)

you must remember this
a kiss is still a kiss
a sigh is just a sigh
the fundamental things apply
as time goes by
and when two lovers woo
they still say i love you
on that you can rely
the world will always welcome lovers
as time goes by

moonlight and lovesongs never out of date
hearts full of passion, jealousy and hate
woman needs man
and man must have his mate
that no one can deny

it’s still the same old story
the fight for love and glory
a case of do or die
the world will always welcome lovers
as time goes by

there’s a new kind of dancing
that’s gonna be the rage
you just leave yourself behind
like an actor on a stage

cop a different pose
>from the pose you’re in
shine a different attitude
>from underneath your skin

attitude dancing
strut around the floor in a different attitide
attitude dancing
any attitude is the proper attitude
attitude dancing
don’t be afraid to change your attitude
attitude dancing
free up your spirit with a new attitude

it don’t even matter
if you stretch or shake
and it don’t really matter
what moves your body makes

and it don’t really matter
what steps you choose to do
only one thing matters:
that’s your attitude
your attitude, attitude dancing

attitude dancing
strut around the floor in a different attitide
attitude dancing
learn to move in another attitude
attitude dancing
find the groove in a new attitude
attitude dancing
don’t be afraid of a new attitude

it don’t really matter
what steps you choose to do
only one thing matters:
is your attitude

your attitude, attitude dancing
strut around the floor in a new attitude
do the locomotion in a new attitude
do the mashed potato in a new attitude
do the hully gully in a new attitude

find a role you like
capture it and freeze
then turn it around
a hundred and eighty degrees
or if you’re at a loss
observe some natural dude
and turn into a mirror of his attitude
attitude, attitude, attitude
dancing
