WHO NEEDS LOVE LIKE THAT
Who needs love like that?
There’s something going on, something not quite right
There something strange a-happening to me
There’s someone at the door, I hear voices in my head
It seems things aren’t the way they ought to be
Who needs love like that?
Who needs love like that?
It seemed so clear before I held my point of view
I kept my conversation never changed
And now it’s all gone wrong and words are kinda hard
And nothing else around me looks the same
Who needs love like that?
Who needs love like that?
Love can turn you upside-down then leave you cold
It’s plain to see you’re losing all control
Who needs love like that?
Who needs love like that?
I’d like to understand, like to find out why
I can’t remember all the lines I should say
But then I see your face and nothing really counts
Don’t tell me now this feeling will stay
Who needs love like that?
Who needs love like that?
Love can turn you upside-down then leave you cold
It’s plain to see you’re losin’ all control
Who needs love like that?
Who needs love like that?
Who needs love like that?
Who needs love like that?
Who needs love like that?
PUSH ME SHOVE ME
Motion always seemed to me the way I ought to go
No one now gets in my way, I won’t let my heartache show
The same situation won’t bring me down no more
I’ll get on without you now, I don’t need your help for sure
Push me, shove me
I don’t call that love me
I call that over
There was once a time when I would fall for all your lies
Now I know the game you played, I see it clearly in your eyes
You can’t cry beside me, I won’t let you in my heart
I can walk out on my own, it’s high time we moved apart
Push me, shove me
I don’t call that love me
Push me, shove me
I call that over
You say talk it out, I say it’s all one big mistake
Cut so deep it’s hard and it’s the chance I have to take
I don’t need to follow, I want to face love on my own
Emotion, oh emotion, from now on that’s how it goes
Push me, shove me
I don’t call that love me
I call that over
Push me, shove me
I don’t call that love me
I call that over
HEAVENLY ACTION
Angel made in heaven
All I want is your love
Gimme some of that action, reaction
Angel made in heaven
All I want is your love
Gimme some of that action
Found out I was standing in your firing line
You made your mark, your arrow went through me
Cut a real impression on this heart of mine
I’m loving – what is happening to me?
Angel made in heaven
All I want is your love
Gimme some of that action, reaction
Angel made in heaven
All I want is your love
Gimme some of that action
Be my lover
I don’t want another
My angel from heaven
Be my lover
I don’t want another
My angel from heaven
Angel made in heaven
All I want is your love
Gimme some of that action
Arrow in my heart, yeah we were meant to be
I knew it was my name you were calling
Celebration, now you’re standing next to me
Show me love emotion, I’m falling
Angel made in heaven
All I want is your love
Gimme some of that action, reaction
Angel made in heaven
All I want is your love
Gimme some of that action
Be my lover
I don’t want another
My angel from heaven
Be my lover
I don’t want another
My angel from heaven
Angel, angel
Angel made in heaven
All I want is your love
Gimme some of that action, reaction
Angel made in heaven
All I want is your love
Gimme some of that action
