Who's Johnny lyrics - El Debarge

There she goes and knows I'm dying
When she says, "Who is Johnny? "
Games with names that girl is playing
All she says is "Who is Johnny? "

I try to understand because I'm people too
And playing games is part of human nature
My heart's in overdrive
It's great to be alive

[Chorus:]
"Who's Johnny? " she said
And smiled in her special way
"Johnny" she said
"You know I love you"
"Who's Johnny? " she said
And tried to look the other way
Her eyes gave her away

She makes sure I see her teasing
Hear her say "Who is Johnny? "
There's no way to take this easy
Hear her say "Who is Johnny? "

I really couldn't help but fall in love with her
Her being there
Has made my life worth living
I knew it from the start
That I would lose my heart

[Chorus]

Still pretending
Who's Johnny Who's Johnny
Who's Johnny Who's Johnny
"Who's Johnny? " she said
And tried to look the other way
Her eyes gave her away

Girls like her are very special
Girls like her don't rest
'Till you too are a believer
'Till you too have caught their fever

There she goes and knows I'm dying
When she says "Who is Johnny? "

[Chorus: to fade]

I Wanna Hear It From My Heart lyrics - El Debarge

[Verse 1:]
Lying here close beside you
Thinking of times before
Love was a game and love me more
Now I need to feel the rhythm
Coming from deep inside
I wanna know his right and I...

[Chorus:]
I wanna hear it from my heart
Wanna be sure before I start
And maybe his love is real
And I... I wanna know before I fall
To give all I got
Don't give nothing at all
I wanna hear it from my heart, oh

[Verse 2:]
Maybe I'm just too cautious
But maybe I need some time
Time to convince this heart of mine, oh... oh... oh...
That I can really trust you
(Really trust you)
'Cause I've learned that words can lie
I hear it from your lips but I...

[Chorus:]
I wanna hear it from my heart
(Hear it from my heart)
Wanna be sure before I start
And maybe his love is real
And I, I, I wanna know before I fall
To give all I got
Don't give nothing at all
I wanna hear it from my heart, oh

[Intsrumental: with breakdown]
Mmm... mmm... mmm...
Oh, no
I hear it from your lips but I...

[Chorus:]
I wanna hear it from my heart
(Hear it from my heart)
Wanna be sure before I start
And maybe his love is real
And I, I, I wanna know before I fall
To give all I got
Don't give nothing at all
(Nothing at all)
Before I fall in love, oh

I wanna hear it from my heart
Wanna know where we stand right from the start
Wanna know that his love is real love
I wanna hear it from my heart
(Hear it from my heart)
To give all I got
Don't give nothing at all
(Nothing at all)
I wanna hear it from my heart

(I wanna hear it from my heart)
(Wanna be sure before I start)
Oh... oh... oh... oh... oh... oh... baby
I wanna hear it from my heart

Someone lyrics - El Debarge

[Chorus:]
Someone just like me
Runnin' into someone just like you
An accidental touch
Turned into a gentle kiss or two
Love has finally come
Somehow found my someone

[Verse 1:]
Close to you, that's how I feel
When the world's asleep and we're sharin' sweet
Solitude, almost gave up
Trying to find someone else in love

Long walk, soft talk
Still can't believe it, what were the odds of

[Chorus]

[Verse 2:]
Was that me? Not long ago
No one here to care
No one's dreams to share
You agree, nights can be rough
When you can't find someone else in love

Long walk, soft talk
Hard to believe it, what were the odds of

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
You and me, all alone
That's my favorite time of night
Nothing for us to do
But finding ways to hold each other tight

Imagine

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Ad libs]

When Love Has Gone Away lyrics - El Debarge

Nothing matters when you're on your own
Ain't no laughter, only alone
With the mem'ries of love you have known
You cling to yesterday

Sunshine shinin' only for one
Just brings darkness after it's done
You stay cold when you're on the run
A painful price to pay

You die inside a little
Each time that you open your eyes
You try to hide
But you must face the truth
When love has gone away

Raining morning long overdue
Time I used to spend holdin' you
I don't think you were just passing through
It just turned out that way

You die inside a little
Each time that you open your eyes
You try to hide
But you must face the truth
When love has gone away

(Away, away, away, away)
There's nothing that you can lose
(Oh, no)

You die inside a little
Each time that you open your eyes
You try to hide
But you must face the truth
When love has gone away

There's nothing that you can lose
When love has gone away
Oh, baby
Oh

Love Always lyrics - El Debarge

I got a secret for you
Can't believe myself
But ever since you've been gone
I think of no one else
I've even tried to forget
But nothing can make me

I know that it's so hard to be true
Under the summer skies
I'll write your name in my Book
At least a thousand times
And every day you're away
It's drivin' me crazy

So I'll write you every night
And I'll sign my name "Love always"
And even if the sun falls down
I will always be around
Forever and always
Darlin', if we both can wait
We'll have a time to celebrate
For the rest of our lives, love always

And lots of people I know
Try to shape your mind
But that can't happen to me
I'm not the jealous kind
No one can change what I feel
And nothing can make me

Still I'll write to you every night
And I'll sign my name, "Love always"
And even if the sun falls down
I will always be around
Forever and always
Darlin', if we both can wait, oh
We'll have the time to celebrate
For the rest of our lives, love always
For the best of our lives, love always
For the rest of our lives

We'll always be
So faithfully
Just hang on to me forever

So I'll write you every night
And I'll sign my name, "Love always"
Oh, and if by now you haven't guessed
I will add one more P.S.
For the rest of our lives, love always
For the best of our lives, love always

I'll sign this letter to you "Love always"
Oh, know it
Oh... oh... oh... I Love you baby
Oh, and if I do over and over again
Sign my name over in full
And at the end and rest of our lives, love always
Love always
Ooh girl
Sounds so good to me, mmm
For the rest of our lives love always, oh
For the rest of our lives love always, oh da da
Oh, I, I gotta secret for you
I don't wanna stop, sounds so good to me
Oh, ever and a day
I'll always love you
Ever and a day
Oh

Lost Without Her Love lyrics - El Debarge

Looking out my window
Watching through the rain
Wishing she were here right next to me
One chance in a million
I know that's all I have
Whoa, a miracle's the one thing that I need

[Bridge:]
(Want her back) the way it used to be
(Never had) her long enough
Oh, can't you see

[Chorus:]
I'm lost without her love
I don't know where to run
I just can't get her out of my dreams
Oh I'm lost without her love
Knowing she's the one
Who could ever hope to rescue me

Talking to my shadow
Saying I'm all right
Trying to get through this lonely night
Knowing just how empty
Forever's gonna be
Living without her here by my side

[Bridge & Chorus]

Now, now it all begins
I start to pretend
I see her in the distance in my mind
Wrapped up in these chains
Her memory still remains
She's just too hard to shake

[Chorus x3: fade]

Don't Say It's Over lyrics - El Debarge

[Verse 1:]
You act like I'm some kind of stranger
You don't even know
Turning away, away from me now
You're trying to go
Forgive me, if I seem a little elected
To just let in me
When you're walking away
With all I'm living for
Well, what am I to do?
Just open the door

[B-Section 1:]
Well, there's something I just can't do
(I can't do)
And it won't be a life, baby
Living my life without you

[Chorus:]
Don't say it's over now
Don't say it's over, it's over
Don't walk away right now
Don't go, don't go, no-oh
Don't say it's over now
Don't say it's over, it's over
Don't say it's over

[Verse 2:]
Feels like I'm standing alone
On the edge of the night
Suddenly I'm realizing
I have no place in your life
Searching my heart
Just to find the right words
To touch you again
No, you just don't care
And there's nothing that I can say to you now
To turn you around

[B-Section 2:]
How can you be so damn cold
(Be so damn cold)
When I'm still holding on, baby
How can you just let go

[Chorus:]
Don't say it's over now
Don't say it's over, it's over
Don't walk away right now
Don't go, don't go, no-oh
Don't say it's over now
Don't say it's over, it's over
Don't say it's over

[ad-lib over sax solo]

[B-Section 3:]
Oh, I wish this was just a bad dream
(Just a bad dream)
Or I wish I could wake up and find
And you're still wanting me

[Chorus: then with sax solo]
Don't say it's over now
Don't say it's over, it's over
Don't walk away right now
Don't go, don't go, no-oh
Don't say it's over now
Don't say it's over, it's over
Don't say it's over now

(Don't say it's over now)
Oh... oh... oh... oh...
(Don't say it's over, it's over)
Oh, don't say it's over
(Don't walk away right now)
Don't go, don't go-oh-oh-ooo-oh-oh

[Outro: with sax solo]
(Don't say it's over now)
(Don't say it's over, it's over)
(Don't walk away right now)
(Don't say it's over now)
(Don't say it's over, it's over)

Starlight Express lyrics - El Debarge

When the night is darkest, open up your mind
Dream begins, it's becoming clearer
Listen to the distant, listen and you'll find
A midnight train is getting nearer

Starlight Express, Starlight Express
Are you real? Yes or no?
Starlight Express, please answer me yes
I don't want you to go

Take me to the places I have never been
Bring me home safely before I wake up
'Cause I believe in you completely though you may be unseen
This is not the kind of thing that anyone can make up

Starlight Express, Starlight Express
Are you real? Yes or no?
Starlight Express, please answer me yes
I don't want you to go

You're in need of bigger world to help you
Don't go on worrying deep inside

Are you real? Yes or no?
Starlight Express, please answer me yes
I don't want you to go

My Starlight Express, please answer me yes
I don't want you to go
