Urgent (Foreigner)

URGENT

You’re not shy, you get around

You wanna fly, don’t want your feet on the ground

You stay up, you won’t come down

You wanna live, you wanna move to the sound

Got fire in your veins, burning hot, but you don’t feel the pain

Your desire is insane, you can’t stop until you do it again

But sometimes I wonder, as I look in your eyes

Maybe you’re thinking of some other guy

But I know, yes I know how to treat you right

That’s why you call me in the middle of the night, you say

It’s urgent, so urgent, so urgent, just wait and see

How urgent my love can be, it’s urgent

You play tricks on my mind, you’re everywhere, but you’re so hard to find

You’re not warm, you’re sentimental

You’re so extreme, you can be so temperamental

But I’m not looking for a love that’ll last

I know what I need and I need it fast

Yeah there’s one thing in common that we both share

That’s our need for each other anytime, anywhere

It gets urgent, so urgent, you know it’s urgent

I wanna tell you it’s the same for me

So urgent, just wait and see, how urgent my love can be, it’s urgent

(Solo)

You say it’s urgent, make it fast, make it urgent

Do it quick, do it urgent, gotta run, make it urgent

Wait it quick, want it urgent, urgent, emergency, urgent, urgent, emergency

Urgent, urgent, emergency, urgent, urgent, emergency

So urgent, emergency

Waiting for a girl like you (Foreigner)

WAITING FOR A GIRL LIKE YOU

So long, I’ve been looking too hard, I’ve been waiting too long

Sometimes I don’t know what I will find, I only know it’s a matter of time

When you love someone, when you love someone

It feels so right, so warm and true, I need to know if you feel it too

Maybe I’m wrong, won’t you tell me if I’m coming on too strong

This heart of mine has been hurt before, this time I wanna be sure

I’ve been waiting for a girl like you to come into my life

I’ve been waiting for a girl like you, your loving will survive

I’ve been waiting for someone new to make me feel alive

Yeah, waiting for a girl like you to come into my life

You’re so good, when we make love it’s understood

It’s more than a touch or a word can say

Only in dreams could it be this way

When you love someone, yeah, really love someone

Now I know it’s right, from the moment I wake up till deep in the night

There’s nowhere on earth that I’d rather be than holding you tenderly

I’ve been waiting for a girl like you to come into my life

I’ve been waiting for a girl like you, your loving will survive

I’ve been waiting for someone new to make me feel alive

Yeah, waiting for a girl like you to come into my life

I’ve been waiting, waiting for you, ooh, I’ve been waiting

I’ve been waiting

(I’ve been waiting for a girl like you, I’ve been waiting)

Won’t you come into my life?

Juke box hero (Foreigner)

JUKE BOX HERO

Standing in the rain with his head hung low

Couldn’t get a ticket, it was a sold-out show

Heard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scene

Put his ear to the wall, then like a distant scream

He heard one guitar, just blew him away

He saw stars in his eyes, and the very next day

Bought a beat up six-string, in a second-hand store

Didn’t know how to play it, but he knew for sure

That one guitar felt good in his hands, didn’t take long to understand

Just one guitar, swung way down low

Was a one way ticket, only one way to go

So he started rocking, ain’t never gonna stop

Gotta keep on rocking, someday gonna make it to the top

And be a juke box hero (got stars in his eyes), he’s a juke box hero

He took one guitar (juke box hero - stars in his eyes)

Juke box hero (stars in his eyes), he’ll come alive tonight

In a town without a name, in a heavy down port

Thought he’d cast his own shadow by the backstage door

Like a trip through the past, from that day in the rain

That one guitar played his whole life chain

Now he needs to keep rocking, he just can’t stop

Gotta keep on rocking, that boy has got to stay on top

And be a juke box hero (got stars in his eyes)

He’s a juke box hero (got stars in his eyes)

Yeah a juke box hero (got stars in his eyes)

That one guitar (stars in his eyes), he’ll come alive, come alive tonight

(Solo)

Yeah, he’s gotta keep rocking, he just can’t stop

Gotta keep on rocking, that boy has got to stay on top

And be a juke box hero (got stars in his eyes)

He’s a juke box hero (got stars in his eyes)

And just one guitar (juke box hero) put stars in his eyes

Now he’s just a juke box hero

Juke box hero, juke box hero, he’s got stars in his eyes

Stars in his eyes

Wonderful tonight (Eric Clapton)

Wonderful Tonight

It’s late in the evening
She’s wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make up
And brushes her long blonde hair
And then she asks me
Do I look alright
And I say yes, you look wonderful tonight

We go to a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady
That’s walking around with me
And then she asks me
Do you feel alright
And I say yes, I feel wonderful tonight

I feel wonderful
Because I see the love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don’t realize
How much I love you

It’s time to go home now
And I’ve got an aching head
So I give her the car keys
She helps me to bed
And then I tell her
As I turn out the light
I say my darling, you were wonderful tonight
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight

White room (Eric Clapton/Cream)

White Room (Jack Bruce and Pete Brown)

In the white room with black curtains near the station.
Blackroof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings.
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes.
Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment.

I’ll wait in this place where the sun never shines;
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves.

You said no strings could secure you at the station.
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows.
I walked into such a sad time at the station.
As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning.

I’ll wait in the queue when the trains come back;
Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves.

At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd.
Consolation for the old wound now forgotten.
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes.
She’s just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.

I’ll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd;
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves.
