Life ain't easy, let the sun shine through
Let me hear your voice when I'm calling you
Just let me know you're there, just let me know you're there
No I don't really care as long as I'm with you
Let me know you're there
No I don't really care as long as I'm with you

Let me hear your voice when I'm calling you
Let me hear your voice when I'm calling you
Let me hear your voice when I'm calling you
Baby let the sun shine through

We can make it easy, what you gonna do
Let me hear your voice when I'm calling you
Just let me know you're there, just let me know you're there
No I don't really care as long as I'm with you
Let me know you're there
No I don't really care as long as I'm with you

Let me hear your voice when I'm calling you
Let me hear your voice when I'm calling you
Let me hear your voice when I'm calling you
Baby let the sun shine through

When we're together, this is something new
When I hear your voice I feel close to you
Just let me know you're there, just let me know you're there
No I don't really care as long as I'm with you
Just let me know you're there, just let me know you're there
No I don't really care as long as I'm with you

Let me hear your voice when I'm calling you
Let me hear your voice when I'm calling you
When I'm calling you, when I'm calling you
When I'm calling you, when I'm calling you

A desert road from Vegas to nowhere
Some place better than where you've been
A coffee machine that needs some fixing
In a little café just around the bend

I am calling you
Can't you hear me
I am calling you

A hot dry wind blows right thru me
Your baby's crying and I can't sleep
But we all know a change is coming
Coming closer sweet release

I am calling you
I know you hear me
I am calling you Oh

C-A-L-L-I-N-G now, I'm calling you,
calling you now
C-A-L-L-I-N-G now, I'm calling you,
calling you now

Ohh oh-oh-oh...

I-yi-yi can't get my message through
why-yi-yi don't you pick up the phone?
All my love is running down the line,
but you won't recieve it, no, no

I-yi-yi will miss the sweet words,
and cry-yi-yi if you tell me the same
What I hear is just an old, lame,
occupied signal tone

Operator all you have to do
is connect me. I am waiting for it
Help me, I am waiting to be

C-A-L-L-I-N-G now. I'm calling you
Calling you now
C-A-L-L-I-N-G now. I'm calling you
Calling you now

Ohh oh-oh-oh...
Ohh oh-oh-oh...
Ohh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh...
Ohh oh-oh-oh...

I-yi-yi, I call you once again,
and I-yi-yi resist to give in
Now my love is running down the drain,
so you won't recieve it, no, no

I-yi-yi will miss the sweet words,
and cry-yi-yi if you tell me the same
What I hear is just an old, lame,
occupied signal tone

Operator all you have to do is connect me
I am waiting for it
Help me, I am waiting to be

C-A-L-L-I-N-G now, I'm calling you,
calling you now
C-A-L-L-I-N-G now, I'm calling you,
calling you now
Ohh oh-oh-oh...

I-yi-yi - Operator
I-yi-yi - Operator
I-yi-yi - Operator
I-yi-yi - Operator!

C-A-L-L-I-N-G now, I'm calling you,
calling you now
C-A-L-L-I-N-G now, I'm calling you,
calling you now
Ohh oh-oh-oh...
Ohh oh-oh-oh...
Ohh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh...

I'm feeling like I got the world in the palm of my hands
It's like I'm with you when nobody else is here yeah
Me and you in here together are perfect
Just come a little closer o-o-o oh yeah yeah
Hold on to me, and feel the music
Free yourself tonight

Oh just do what you want what you want
Like nobodies watching
Do what you want what you want
Keep the party rocking

Like nobodies watching
You know
The rhythms calling you
Lose control
The rhythms calling you

I can't seem to get this curiosity out my head
'Cause when I'm next to you, you make me wanna take you there
Whatever you need, you can find in me
'Cause I feel like boy touch me there
Chemistry is flowing, keep me going dont stop baby
Hold on to me, and feel the music
Free yourself tonight

Oh just do what you want what you want
Like nobodies watching
Do what you want what you want
Keep the party rocking

A Desert Road From Vegas To Nowhere
Someplace better than where you've been
A coffee machine that needs some fixin' -
In a little cafe just around the bend

[Chorus:]
I am calling you
Can't you hear me?
I am calling you.

A hot dry wind blows right through me
The baby's crying and i can't sleep
Bit we both know that a change is coming
Gome in closer, sweet release

[Chorus]

Desert road from vegas to nowhere
Dear friends
So dear friends your love has gone
Only tears to dwell upon
I dare not say as the wind must blow
So a love is lost, a love is won
Go to sleep and dream again
Soon your hopes will rise and then
From all this gloom life can start anew
And there'll be no crying soon

A desert road from Vegas to nowhere
Someplace better than where you've been
A coffee machine that needs some fixing
In a little café just around the bend

I am calling you
I am calling you
Can't you hear me?
I am calling you

A hot, dry wind blows right through me
The baby's crying and I can't sleep
But I can feel change is coming
It's coming closer, sweet release

Ooo, ooo, ooo

I am calling you
I am calling you
Can't you hear me?
I am calling you

A desert road from Vegas to nowhere
Someplace better than where you've been
A coffee machine that needs some fixing
In a little café just around the bend

A hot, dry wind, it blows right through me
The baby's crying and I can't sleep
But I can feel that a change is coming
It's coming closer, sweet release

I am calling you
I am calling you
Can't you hear me?
I am calling you...

There's something I can't quite explain
I'm so in love with you
You'll never take that away
And if i've said it a hundred times before
Expect a thousand more
You'll never take that away

So expect me to be
Calling you to see
If you're okay when I'm not around
Asking "do you love me"
I love the way you make it sound
Calling you to see
Do I try too hard to make you smile?
To make us smile

[Chorus]
I will keep calling you to see
If you're sleeping or you're dreaming
If you're dreaming, are you dreaming of me
I can't believe you actually picked me

I thought that the world had lost it's sway
It's so hard sometimes
Then I fell in love with you
Then came you
And you took that away
It's not so difficult
The world is not so difficult
You take away the old
Show me the new
And I feel like I can fly when i stand next to you
So while I'm on this phone
A hundred miles from home
I'll take the words you gave me and send them back to you

I only want to see
If you're okay when I'm not around
Asking "do you love me"
I love the way you make it sound
Calling you to see
Do I try too hard to make you smile?
To make us smile

[Chorus]

I feel like I got the world in the palm of my hands
It's like I'm with you when nobody else is here yeah
Me and you in here together are perfect
Just come a little closer o-o-o oh yeah yeah
Hold on to me, and feel the music
Free yourself tonight

Oh just do watcha want, watcha want
Like nobodies watchin'
Do watcha want watcha want
Keep the party rockin'
What what what
Give it up
Like nobodies watchin'
You know
The rhythms calling you
Lose control
The rhythms calling you

I can't seem to get this curiosity out my head
'Cause when I'm next to you, you make me wanna take you there
Whatever you need, you can find in me
'Cause I feel like boy touch me there
Chemistry is flowing, keep me going dont stop baby
Hold on to me, and feel the music
Free yourself tonight

Oh just do watcha want, watcha want
Like nobodies watchin'
Do watcha want watcha want
Keep the party rockin'

I keep calling you.
Tell me, was it something I said?
Calling you.

Woke up this morning and you told me,
you're tired of the way we're livin',
and it's time for you to leave.
How could you do this to me?
Whatever I had I gave you my last,
now you tell me that you wanna leave,
and all your stuff is packed.
How you gonna do me like that?

[Chorus 2x]
I keep calling you,
but you ain't picking up your phone.
Can you tell me whats going on?
Was it something I said?
Was it something I did?
'Cause I need to know if there's an us anymore.

Sitting here and I'm losing my mind,
'cause I gave you all of my love,
I gave you all of my time,
gave you all my time.
Now you wanna turn and walk away,
you tell me you dont want to stay.
I thought you were my man and I was your lady.

[Chorus 2x]
I keep calling you,
but you ain't picking up your phone.
Can you tell me whats going on?
Was it something I said?
Was it something I did?
'Cause I need to know if there's an us anymore.

Why couldn't you tell me the truth,
if you didn't want me to kick it with you.
Now I'm sitting here all alone,
'cause you couldn't be a man
and pick up your phone.

[Chorus 4x]
I keep calling you,
but you ain't picking up your phone.
Can you tell me whats going on?
Was it something I said?
Was it something I did?
'Cause I need to know if there's an us anymore.
