Playlist Jennifer Warnes

jennifer warnes - ain t no cure for love

I've loved you for a long, long time
I know this love is real
It don't matter how it all went wrong
That don't change the way I feel
I don't believe that time can heal this wound I'm speaking of
Ah, there ain't no cure,
There ain't no cure,
There ain't no cure for love.

I'm aching for you baby
I can't pretend I'm not
I love to see you naked
In your body and your thought
I've got you like a habit
Oh I'll never get enough
Ah, there ain't no cure,
There ain't no cure,
There ain't no cure for love

There ain't no cure for love
There ain't no cure for love
No cure no drug, it's all been
I can't get nothing done, and be with anyone
I want your brother love, I want that other love
And no cure for love

I don't expect the melody
Just because the things are rough
And I seem became so careful
To forget how good it were
I've never given in
Oh, I've never given up baby
Ah, there ain't no cure,
There ain't no cure,
There ain't no cure for love
Ain't no cure for love
No cure no drug, no no
I can't get nothing done, I can't be with anyone
There ain't no cure for love

jennifer warnes - and so it goes

In every heart there is room
A sanctuary safe and strong
To heal the wounds from lovers past
Until a new one comes along
I spoke to you in cautious tones
You answered me with no pretense
And still I fear I?ve said too much
My silence is my self defense

For every time I?ve held a rose
It seems only felt the thorn
And so it goes and it goes
And so will you soon, I suppose
But my silence made you leave
Then that would be my worst mistake
So I will share this room with you
And you can have this heart to break

And this is why my eyes are closer
It?s just as well for all I?ve seen
And so it goes and so it goes
And you?re the only one who knows
So I would choose to be with you
That?s if the choice ere mine to make
But can make decision, too
And you can have this heart to break

And this is why my eyes are closed
It?s just as well for all I?ve seen
And so it goes and so it goes
And you?re the only one

Who knows

jennifer warnes - up where we belong

Who knows what tomorrow brings
In a world where few hearts survive.
All I know is the way I feel
If it?s real I?ll keep it alive

The road is long
And there are mountains in our way
But we climb a step everyday

Love lift us up where we belong
Where the eagels cry on a mountain high
Love lift us up where we belong
Far from the worlds we know
Up where the clear winds blow

Some hang on what used to be
They live their lives, looking behind.
When all we have is here and now
All our lives up there to find.

The road is long
And there are mountains in our way
But we climb a step everyday

Love lift us up where we belong
Where the eagels cry on a mountain high
Love lift us up where we belong
Far from the worlds we know
Up where the clear winds blow.

Time goes by
No time to cry
Life?s you and I
Alive. Today.

Love lift us up where we belong
Where the eagels cry on a mountain high
Love lift us up where we belong
Far from the worlds we know
Up where the clear winds blow

jennifer warnes - a singer must die

Now the courtroom is quiet, but who will confess.
Is it true you betrayed us? The answer is Yes.
Then read me the list of the crimes that are mine,
I will ask for the mercy that you love to decline.
And all the ladies go moist, and the judge has no choice,
A singer must die for the lie in his voice.

And I thank you, I thank you for doing your duty,
You keepers of truth, you guardians of beauty.
Your vision was right, my vision was wrong,
I'm sorry for smudging the air with my song.
Oh la...

Oh, the night it is thick, my defences are hid
In the clothes of a man I would like to forgive
In the furs of his leather, the shade of his eyes
Where I have to go begging in beauty's disguise.
Oh good night, good night, my night after night,
My night after night, after night, after night, after night, after night.
Do do do ...

So save me a place in the ten-dollar grave
With those who took money for the pleasure we gave
With those always ready, with those who are dressed
So you could lay down with your head on their breast yes
And the ladies gone moist, and the judge has no choice,
A singer must die for the lie in his voice.
Oh la la la...

jennifer warnes - big noise new york

Since you left me darling
The city doesn't feel right
On the street the music stopped
And the light seem half as bright
Without your love
This old town's no fun at all
Without your love
I only hear the loudest voices
The one's with something new to sell
And now it's all
Big talk, big name, big noise, new york

I walk from the river to west broadway
Every stranger spoke your name
Every sign read 'yesterday'
Without your love

This old town's no fun at all
Without your love
I only see the drifting shadows
Of the losers and the lost
And now it's all
Big talk, big name, big noise, new york

There was a time
When the night was just for dancing
Till the sun rose over the skyline
But now you're gone
And the fear of winter grows
Just a place where the money flows
And there never was a springtime

Another season begins fast and loud
It's supposed to be a party
But to me, it's just a crowd

Without your love
This old town's no fun at all
Without your love
I'm left with all the memories darling
Of words i thought were true
But it was all
Big talk, big name, big noise, new york
Well, it was all
Big talk, big name, big noise, new york

jennifer warnes - bird on the wire

Like a bird on the wire,
like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.
Like a fish on a hook,
like a knight from an old fashioned book
I have saved all my ribbons for thee.
If I have been unkind,
I hope that you could just let it go by.
And if I have been untrue
I hope you know it was never to you. No, no

Like a baby, stillborn,
like a beast with his horn
I have torn everyone who reached out for me.
But I swear by this song
By all I have done wrong
I'll make it all up to you. Yes I will
I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch,
He called out to me,

jennifer warnes - cold enough to snow

Where did summer go?
How'd I miss the change of seasons
All at once the wind blows rough
It's cold enough to snow

In the street below
People laugh, they got no reason
Don't they know its cold enough to snow?

When we were together
And you were staying
Funny but the weather still
Felt like May in mid-December
Now the chill winds blow
Sunny skies they're only teasing
You won't show its cold enough to snow

On the radio there's a man saying
Ain't it freezing
What's he know? He didn't watch you go.

No the sun can't shine, fine
But its cold enough to snow

jennifer warnes - come so far for beauty

I came so far for beauty
I left so much behind
My patience and my family
My masterpiece unsigned
I thought Id be rewarded
For such a lonely choice
And maybe he would answer
To such a hopeless voice
I practiced all my sainthood
I gave to one and all
But the rumours of my virtue
They moved him not at all
I changed my style to silver
I changed my clothes to black
And where I would surrender
Now I would attack
I stormed the old casino
For the money and for the flesh
And I myself decided
What was rotten, what was fresh
And men to do my bidding
And broken bones to teach
The value of my pardon
The shadow of my reach
But no, I could not touch him
With such a heavy hand
His star beyond my order
His nakedness unmanned
I came so far for beauty
I left so much behind
My patience and my family
My masterpiece unsigned

jennifer warnes - comin back to you

Maybe I'm still hurting
I can't turn the other cheek
But you know that I still love you
It's just that I can't speak
I looked for you in everyone
And they called me on that too
I lived alone but I was only
Coming back to you

They're shutting down the factory now
Just when all the bills are due
And the fields are under lock and key
Tho' the rain and the sun come through
And springtime starts but then it stops
In the name of something new
And all the senses rise against this
Coming back to you

And they're handing down my sentence now
I know what I must do
Another mile of silence while I'm
Coming back to you

There are many in your life
Many still to be
Since you are a shining light
There's many that you'll see
So I got a deal with envy
When you choose the precious few
Who've left their pride on the other side of
Coming back to you

Even in your arms I know
I'll never get it right
Even when you bend to give me
Comfort in the night
So I've got to have your word on this
Or none of it is true
And all I've said was just instead of
Coming back to you

jennifer warnes - famous blue raincoat

It's four in the morning, the end of december
I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
New york is cold, but i like where i'm living
There's music on clinton street all through the evening.

I hear that you're building your house deep in the desert
Are you living for nothing now, hope you're keeping some kind of record.

Yes, and jane came by with a lock of your hair
She said that you gave it to her
That night when you planned to go clear
Did you ever go clear?

Ah, the last time we saw you, you looked so much older
Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
You'd been to the station to meet every train
But she never turned up i'm lili marlene

And you treated some woman to a flake of your life
And when she got home she was nobody's wife.
Well i see you there with a rose in your teeth
One more thin gypsy thief
Well i see jane's awake
She sends her regards.

And what can i tell you oh what can i tell you
What can i possibly say?
I guess that i miss you, i guess i forgive you
I'm glad that you stood in my way.

And if you ever come by here, be it for jane or for me
I want you to know your enemy's sleeping, i want you to know your woman is free.

Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes
I thought it was there for good so i never really tried.

And jane came by with a lock of your hair
She said that you gave it to her
That night when you planned to go clear

Sincerely, a friend

jennifer warnes - first we take manhattan

They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom
For trying to change the system from within
I'm coming now, i'm coming to reward them
First we take manhattan, then we take berlin

I'm guided by a signal in the heavens
I'm guided by the birthmark on my skin
I'm guided by the beauty of our weapons
First we take manhattan, then we take berlin

I'd really like to live beside you, baby
I love your body and your spirit and your clothes
But you see that line that's moving through the station?
I told you, i told you, i told you, i was one of those

Ah you loved me as a loser, but now you're worried that i just might win
You know the way to stop me, but you don't have the discipline
How many nights i prayed for this, to let my work begin
First we take manhattan, then we take berlin

I don't like your fashion business mister
And i don't like these drugs that keep you thin
I don't like what happened to my sister
First we take manhattan, then we take berlin
Then we take berlin,then we take berlin

jennifer warnes - i can t hide

saw your face in a dream again
and there's no word for what I was feeling
so deep and wide
I can't hide it any longer
who let this phantom in
who will tame this nameless feeling
I'd like to hide
but I can no longer

you're the ghost who keeps on calling
I bar the door, you breeze right through
all my old fences are falling
I don't know what's true
but I'm glad to see you

and to feel you near again
so strong, so warm and tormenting
ain't nothin' died baby
it just grows stronger

you're the ghost who keeps on calling
I bar the door, you breeze right through
all my old fences are falling
as I reach for you
what do I hold on to

saw your face in a dream again
hello, hello my lost companion
come on inside
I will hide no longer

no, no, I can hide no longer
no, I won't hide no longer

jennifer warnes - i know a heartache when i see one

Look at through the winds
Blowin' up the road
Shining like a northern star
Actin' like the answers
To all my prayers
But, baby, I know what you really are

So don't you knock on my door
I won't be home anymore
You can find me out walking in the sun
Oh, you hide it so well
It isn't easy to tell
But I know a heartache
When I see one

There was a time
I was a true believer
Your love was the only way
Well you can save all your sweet talkin'
For some other fool
Only a fool would believe what you say

So don't you knock on my door
I won't be home anymore
You can find me out walking in the sun
Oh, you hide it so well
It isn't easy to tell
But I know a heartache
When I see one

Time is a teacher
Oh, and it's taught me well
The loser is the one who cries
And when you've cried like a baby
And you've hurt like hell
You know the devil
By the look in his eyes

So don't you knock on my door
I won't be home anymore
You can find me out walking in the sun
Oh, you hide it so well
It isn't easy to tell
But I know a heartache
When I see one

I know a heartache when I see one

jennifer warnes - i m restless

There are words to say but i swear i just can't find them
Though in my heart i know fools
May hesitate from the memories behind them
While the angels laugh and say, i told you so
Oh, i'm restless, darling i'm restless
Waiting for you to look my way
I don't think that i can wait another day

I cry when the feeling overtakes me
'cos the love i give seems so little in your eyes
The test of time always breaks me
With nothing tried, and nothing realised
Oh, i'm restless, darling i'm restless
Waiting for you to look my way
I don't think that i can wait another day

No man is an island but you do that very well
It sure takes a fool to find another

But i believe for every heart that's broken
There's a stranger's smile to put it on the mend, then
Those old familiar feelings seldom spoken
Out of nowhere come back again
And i'm restless, darling i'm restless
Waiting for you to look my way
I don't think that i..., the hour is getting late
I can't wait another day

jennifer warnes - i ve had the time of my life

Now I've had the time of my life
no, I've never felt like this before
yes I swear it's the truth
and I owe it all to you

Cause I've had the time of my life
and I owe it all to you

I've been waiting for so long
now I've finally found someone
to stand by me

We saw the writing on the wall
as we felt this magical fantasy

Now with passion in our eyes
there's no way we could diguise it secretly
So we take each others hand cause
we seem to understand the urgency

Just remember
You're the one thing
I can't get enough of,
So I'll tell you something
this could be love, because

I've had the time of my life
No I've never felt this way before,
yes I swear it's the truth,
and I owe it all to you
'Cause I've had the time of my life
And I've searched through every open door
'Till I found the truth
And I owe it all to you

Hey Baby

With my body and soul
I want you more than you'll ever know

So we'll just let it go,
don't be afraid to lose control, no

Yes I know it's on your mind,
when you say "Stay with me tonight"
(Stay with me)

Just remember,
You're the one thing,
I can't get enough of
so I'll tell you something,
This could be love because

I've had the time of my life,
(I've had the time of my life)
no, I've never felt this way before,
Yes I swear it's the truth
(Yes I swear)
and I owe it all to you
Cause I've had the time of my life
and I've searched through every open door
(through everywhere)
Till I found the truth
and I owe it all to you

*Instrumental*

Now I've had the time of my life
No I never felt this way before
(Never Felt this way)
Yes I swear it's the truth
and I owe it all to you

I've had the time of my life
And I've searched through every open door
Till I've found the truth
and I owe it all to you
(I've had the time of my life, baby)

I've had the time of my life
No I've never felt this way before
(Never Felt this way)
Yes I swear it's the truth
(It's the truth, baby)

And I owe it all to you
'Cause I've had the time of my life
(I've had the time of my life)
And I've searched through every open door
Till I've found the truth
and I owe it all to you ?
