wax - right between the eyes

Your love for me was nothing but a mystery,
Just something only captured in a dream.
Whoa, then suddenly...
It was hitting me,
Right between the eyes

I wasn't looking for a love explosion,
But I must have been a target my, oh my.
Cause when I least expected it,
I took a direct hit,
Right between the eyes

You... you shattered my resistance, yes its true,
you battered my defenses what could I do?
Now I'm running from the heat between me and you.

[chorus]
You hit me with a million volts,
Nail me with a lightning bolt,
Oh, baby, you knock me cold.
Your love have zapped me, right between the eyes.

Now nothing's gonna cool down my desire,
Cause I'm jumpin' from the fat into the fire,
Love bug has bitten me,
And you're hitting me,
Right between the eyes

And now... each time I think about you I don't know how,
I ever did without you, spin me 'round,
And I'll never get my feet back on the ground.

[chorus]
You hit me with a million volts,
Nail me with a lightning bolt,
Oh, baby, you knock me cold.
Your love have zapped me, right between the eyes.

Oh... the power of your love is much too strong,
You tell me I'm,

[chorus]
You hit me with a million volts,
Nail me with a lightning bolt,
Oh, baby, you knock me cold.
Your love have zapped me, right between the eyes.

You hit me with a million volts,
Nail me with a lightning bolt,
Oh, baby, you knock me cold.
Your love have zapped me, right between the eyes.

wax - american english

here comes my one and only
talking like a starlet on a hollywood screen
she whispers something to me
I hear the words but I don't know what she means

oh she speaks american english
oh don't always understand
though she speaks american english
got the language of love
at her command

love travels transatlantic
I'm hot and bothered by her figure of speech
can't follow her semantics
but when her body moves it's clear to me

chorus

we don't need words
to express what is real
we've got each other
that says everything that we feel

there's too much damn confusion
with all this talking going round and round
we'll reach our own conclusion
we'll make connection on the common ground

chorus

she speaks american english
she speaks the language of love
she speaks american english

wax - after mixing my makeup

You came to me suddenly one day and left just leaving love...
There is no news from you day after day, year after year...
In worry that you will be disappointed in how much i changed as time has passed, i fix my makeup today also...

I have done nothing for you, just took what you gave me...

That's why i'm sorry, why did you love a girl like me, why you had to leave me, we have to love again somehow...

If i meet you again during my lifetime, i want to argue with you...

Why did you leave me alone in this hardworking world without sending news about you...

I have done nothing for you, just took what you gave me...

That's why i'm sorry, why did you love a girl like me, why you had to leave me, we have to love again somehow...

We were so young back then...

Now i know the love that i didn't know back then, even if it isn't great, come take the love that i left for you, we have to love again somehow....

wax - alright tonight

baby
I know you've been hurt
this world can be hard on your soul
heartless and painful I know
but time
time is on your side
and what seems unbearable now
will one day seem funny somehow

we are alright
we are alright
we are alright tonight

this world
this world can be so cruel
making your dreams disappear
just when you thought you were so near
oh but this world
this world can be so kind oh yeah
finding its own wonderous way
of healing the heartache some way

chorus

if you're down on your luck
just call on me
if you don't know where to turn yeah
Just call on me
and if you're lonely lonely lonely lonely
you know where i'll be
i'll be your shelter your guarantee

wax - anchors aweigh

Eighteen
I'd never been far from home
A young lad seekin' destiny
This ship
With a hundred hands or more
To set sail on a stormy sea

I don't know how we can find our way
With only the stars in the sky
To be our guide
I was green inside
When I heard the captain calling

Anchors aweigh now
Anchors aweigh
We're underway now
Anchors aweigh

I've heard tales of boats that ran aground
Ghost ships dead in the sun
And of men bewitched by the siren's song
Those that died were the lucky ones

One wave can knock a man overboard
And in the name of the crown
A man could drown
I was feeling down
When I heard the captain calling

Anchors aweigh now
Anchors aweigh
We're underway now
Anchors aweigh

wax - ball and chain

I am a working man
Doing the best I can
I toe the line each day

To those who set the pace
I'm just another face
But someday soon I'll lose this

Ball and chain
Everyday's a life of pain
Ball and chain
Feel like I'm dragging round this ball and chain

I'm only flesh and bone
Still they want blood from stone
And they cry more more more

Someday they'll know my name
If I can stand the strain
And I won't have to haul this

Ball and chain
Everyday's a life of pain
Ball and chain
Feel like I'm dragging 'round a ball and chain

Someday I'm gonna break out
And I'll be free
And living in paradise
I won't have to crawl
I'll walk with my head held high

Well day after day
And week after week
They wear you down
'Till you're dead on your feet
And what do you get?
What do you got?
You got nothin'

So you stay where you are
For security sake
You got a family to feed
And pennies to make
It's a damn...

Ball and chain
Everyday's a life of pain
Ball and chain
Feel like I'm dragging round a ball and chain

Ball and chain...

wax - because i love you

I cried every night because of you
I spent the whole night like that
I thought I would forget you as time passed
And it should be time for me to forget you

When another day passes,
Another layer of regret stacks up in my heart
My small habits still contain you in them

Why did you do that?
What was so upsetting?
Did you hate me enough to breakup with me?

I regretted it because of my petty pride
I regretted our breakup even though I didnt catch you

Its still not too late, you can come back
We can meet accidently like the first time
Dont say anything, lets start over
We shouldnt have broken up

After you left, everything changed
I dont know how I survived

Just in case you'd forget how to find me
Im still at the same place

Its still not too late, you can come back
We can meet accidently like the first time
Dont say anything, lets start over
We shouldnt have broken up

There is a reason to why we need to meet again
Because I love you

wax - breakout

Chorus

wax - bug in the machine

I know you must've phoned
Cause you can't live without me
But my answering machine
Must be going on the blink

I know you want to say
Want to say you're sorry
But the message on the phone
Sounded like "leave me alone"

I must've bought a faulty unit
You couldn't want a world without me in it
And up till now it was working like a dream
Uh oh uh oh
Bug in the machine

Must be something wrong
Got a bad connection
The wires must be crossed
I know it can't be you i lost

Your voice was sounding strange to me
Like on your own was what you want to be
Reuniteds what i'm sure you mean
Uh oh uh oh
Bug in the machine

Oh i'm standing on the edge
Of a nervous breakdown
Cause an answering machine
You and i has come between

Can't hold a one way conversation
I need some real communication
I'd like to fix that little green
Uh oh uh oh
Bug in the machine

I know you must've phoned
'cause you can't live without me
My answering machine
Must be going on the blink

wax - don t make fun of me

I walked for a long time on the rain-soaked road
For some reason I liked the falling rain
Erase this love that?s left in my heart
Erase it all with none leftover

I make fun of you, who left me
I say that you abandoned every girl you?ve been with
You go from girl to girl, like a player, a cheater
I guess it?s good that we seperated

Don?t make fun of me, I don?t want to hear it
I really did love that person
I was wrong by leaving
I love you too much, because I love you to much
But you made it so hard, so I left

He treated me so well
Even though I have a bad personality he cared for me
He taught me what love was
Now I?ve become a real woman

Don?t make fun of me, I don?t want to hear it
I really did love that person
I was wrong by leaving
I love you too much, because I love you to much
Since you made it so hard-

I want to know, why you left
Are you the person that everyone said you were?
I loved you, I loved you
If someone makes fun of you, don?t believe them
I can?t stay mad at you

wax - don t play that song

I remember warm and tender sighs
The night before she said goodbye
The song that we liked playing just for her and I
Now when I hear it I just come apart
It's like a needle in my heart
Each time the music starts

Please DJ don't put that on
We fell in love to that one
Don't play that song on the radio
It's so hard to forget
So here is my request
Don't play that song on the radio

I recall the way she held my arm
As we were dancing in the dawn
The radio on
Swaying to the same old song
It used to sound just like a lullaby
But now it only makes me cry
So don't play that one tonight

Please DJ don't put that on
We fell in love to that one
Don't play that song on the radio
It's so hard to forget
So here is my request
Don't play that song on the radio

On and on and round and round
The record spins
Everytime it's on I keep rememberin'
The things we did together
Now they're gone forever
Round and round it keeps repeating
In my ear
All the words of love that I won't ever hear
I'm walkin' in the rain (remember)
Don't play that song again

Please DJ don't put that on
We fell in love to that one
Don't play that song on the radio
It's so hard to forget
So here is my request
Don't play that song on the radio
