          Like Lovers Do
          (Words and music: Jude Cole)

          Rain falls from southern skies
          I got a river falling from my eyes
          It's a bad desire for another world
          I break down in the dark of night
          Where is she goin' in a dress so tight
          You should be waiting for me…Victoria
          Now who do I turn to
          Oh, I can't keep it inside, keep it inside, keep it inside
          I wanna go where the lovers go
          I wanna know what lovers know
          Walking the dark nights alone with you
          Like lovers do, like lovers do
          Come and take me far from home
          I'm so tired of being alone
          I got a bad attraction and it's you tonight
          You don't know it but I'm watching you
          And I'm seeing everything that you do
          The only thing between us is a neon light
          Now who do I turn to
          Oh, I can't keep it inside, keep it inside, keep it inside
          I wanna go where the lovers go
          I wanna know what lovers know
          Walking the dark nights alone with you
          Like lovers do, like lovers do
          If all of the angels came down from the skies
          I'd show them that heaven was right in your eyes
          (now wouldn't I)
          I wanna go where lovers go
          I wanna know what lovers know
          Walking the dark nights, me and you
          Like lovers do, like lovers



          Walls That Bend
          (words: Jude Cole, music Jude Cole and John Corey)

          Anytime you want my love
          You know you've got it right there in the palm of your hand
          So while you're walking unaware
          I know that there's a memory baby, somewhere in there
          Remember that I don't give up
          No, no I don't give up when my heart's on the line
          Let's break it down and start again
          This time with walls that bend
          'Cause pretending we're not friends is only a lie
          You shake it like a little girl
          Walking through the city with your plastic pearls
          And I just can't believe how
          Those falling stars and singles bars are part of your world now
          You put your feet in the dirt of the firing line
          Let's break it down and start again
          This time with walls that bend
          'Cause pretending we're not friends is only a lie
          We'll work it out, to the end
          And just like it all began
          I know that we can mend two bad broken hearts
          Only your love can break down my pride
          So if you want to wait forever, you can do it girl
          But there's not a lot of heaven here without you in my world
          Let's break it down and start again
          This time with walls that bend
          Pretending it's the end is only a lie



          You Were In My Heart
          (words and music: Jude Cole)

          It's over now, that's plain to see
          But so hard to understand
          Why you were looking for a love
          When it was right there, right there in your hand
          You were in my heart, when you walked out that door
          I gave you my love baby, you wanted something more
          And now it's cold and lonely down in paradise
          But don't look back no, no more, I'm as cold as ice
          And the rumors that came back to me
          Were so easily denied
          But tell me what made you my enemy
          When I was right there, right there by your side
          You were in my heart, when you walked out my door
          I gave you my love baby, you wanted something more
          And now the rain is falling in your paradise
          But don't look back no, no more, I'm as cold as ice
          To your heart I was the one that held the key
          I guess your one big promise never let you free
          But that's all over now, it really all over now
          You were in my heart, when you walked out my door
          I gave you my love baby, I'll never know what for
          And now the rain is falling in your little paradise
          But don't look back no, no more, I'm as cold as ice


          Something That You Want
          (words: Jude Cole, music: Jude Cole and Alan Pasqua)

          Don't you ever turn on me
          I've got something that you need
          It drives you wild
          In the mirror, I'm watching you
          Show me everything you do
          It drives me wild
          I like the way you look when there's something that you want
          Your mind's an open book when there's something that you want
          The lights go off and it's all up to you now
          So give me everything you've got
          You think you're clever to tell your lies
          But you can't keep it from my eyes
          Turn around
          Grab a hold of something tight
          And love me baby through the night
          Turn around
          I like the way you look when there's something that you want
          Your mind's an open book when there's something that you want
          The lights go off and it's all up to you now
          So give me everything, I want everything
          I like the way you look when there's something that you want
          Your mind's an open book when there's something that you want
          The lights go off and it's all up to you now
          So give me everything you've got


          Life Of Luxury
          (words: Jude Cole, music: Jude Cole, John Corey, Debrah Neal)

          Walking the city, we walked a thousand times
          Everything looks different now
          Everything has changed somehow
          I'm talking to strangers and trying so hard to prove
          That everything will be alright
          Today I start to live my life
          But the fool inside my heart won't let it go
          And the lonely nights just wrap around my soul
          'Cause you've broken every promise that you ever made to me
          Trading dreams for a life of luxury
          So I met a girl and she knew it wasn't love
          But knowing that she didn't mind
          Made it easy to be kind
          A lover's surrender, a room for a homeless heart
          Never being unaware
          That every moment you were there
          'Cause the fool inside my heart won't let it go
          And it's tearing me apart to let it show
          'Cause you've broken every promise that you ever made to me
          Trading dreams for a life of luxury
          (You can't wait forever, and now you know
          Don't ever regret her, just let her go)
          But I can't, no I can't, I can't, I just can't hold back
          'Cause the fool inside my heart won't let it go
          And each lonely night just wraps around my soul
          'Cause you've broken every promise that you ever made to me
          Trading dreams for a life of luxury


          The Hurt
          (words and music: Jude Cole)

          What happened to Joey the strong believer
          He was a real straight shooter but he got the fever
          Now he's crusin' the downtown queen of the city
          With a feel for the street and he's dressing pretty
          'Cause when she left him behind, something inside said no more
          There's a price to pay when you play with the little town flirt
          And ooh, baby that's the hurt
          What happened to Sally, she's so nervous
          Does she need a love or a mental service
          All the boys just leave her poor heart achin'
          But she can't look back now, Joey's taken
          So the time rolls by 'til something inside says no more
          There's a price to pay when you can't keep away from the dirt
          And ooh, baby that's the hurt
          Someone's always telling lie
          Someone's always got something to hide, now don't they
          Someone's running and someone's reaching
          Just look at what history's teaching you
          So you tell your lies 'til something inside says no more
          There's a price to pay when you can't keep from messing with the curse
          And ooh, baby that's the hurt



          Everyone's In Love
          (words: Jude Cole and Sara Allen, music: Jude Cole)

          To watch her walk away was all that I could take
          I had to stop my feet from making a fool of me
          Now I make a point of staying far away
          From this kind of activity
          'Cause every time I try, I find I'm only losing heart
          And I start to wonder why
          Everyone's in love isn't that enough
          Love, stay away from me
          Everyone's in love, isn't that enough (I don't get)
          Love, stay away from me
          So watch me walk away, call it a draw and say
          Goodbye Shangri-La, your beauty is lost on me
          I don't see the point of going through obsession
          Just for some intimacy
          'Cause I just wanna go sit back in an easy chair
          And watch the next guy try
          Everyone's in love isn't that enough
          Love, stay away from me
          Everyone's in love, isn't that enough (I don't get)
          Love, stay away from me
          Does anybody see the same thing I see
          Making history instead of making love
          And I haven't a hope if I'm gonna get the girl
          By giving up the world
          But I've done it over and over and over again
          I'm just gonna go kick back in an easy chair
          And watch and wonder why
          Everyone's in love isn't that enough
          Love, stay away from me
          Everyone's in love, isn't that enough (I don't get)
          Love, stay away from me



          Better Days
          (words: Jude Cole and John Bettis, music: Jude Cole)

          I'm in the mood for a sad song, one that cries on its own
          And we can sing it together, so I don't cry alone
          Seems I don't know where to go, since she went away
          And the room's spinning faster, as the record plays
          It's the one that reminds me of much better days
          I'm in the mood for a memory, one that lives on and on
          If I relive the laughter, then it won't feel like she's gone
          I can't remember when I smiled, since she went away
          I keep reaching behind me, today's so hard to face
          And the silence reminds me of much better days
          And it's too long to morning, since she's not in my nights
          She's the one that could move me, but she's out of sight
          Why am I holding on, I should let it fade
          Take me back to better days
          Take me back to better days
          Take me back to better days
          Take me back to better days



          Walk On Water
          (words and music: Jude Cole)

          You tell me that you're falling apart at the seams
          You're all talk, talk
          You're looking for a first class ticket to your dreams
          So just walk, walk
          I'm not the one responsible if you never ever find your miracle
          Baby, I would walk on water, I would do it for you
          I would walk on water, if you could ever be true
          You're caught up in a world of material things
          And you keep score, score
          Just when I think I've given you everything
          You want more, more
          I'm not the one to take the blame, if you measure your life
          Through personal gain
          I would walk on water, I would do it for you
          I would walk on water, if you could ever be true
          I'm not the one responsible if you never ever find your miracle
          I would walk on water, I would do it for you
          I would walk on water, if you could ever be true



          Crying Mary
          (words and music: Jude Cole)

          I knew Mary when she was a baby
          One little girl and one big little man
          Five years younger, she cried like the thunder
          I watched her reach ten and never saw her again
          From one boys home to one prison cell
          May I've know this world's bitter hell
          But come this winter I'll see my parole
          And watch the heads turn, down the aisle we stroll
          Are you still Crying Mary, the girl I knew before
          Your mama used to come here, she don't come no more
          But she left a picture of you at seventeen
          And every day since then, Mary you have been my dream
          For years I've waited, alone in the dark
          Thinking of you through a young boy's heart
          Over and over, the price that I've paid
          Was watching you cry as they drove me away
          Are you still Crying Mary, the girl I knew before
          So many times I've wondered , behind these doors
          Will we be together, the way it used to be
          Now that you are older, Mary do you think of me
          Are you still Crying Mary, the girl I knew before
          Your mamma used to come here, she don't come no more
          Just this worn out picture that carries everything
          But there's no way of knowing, Mary to you think of me
          Do you think of me Mary
