Where Were You
(albert hammond, holly knight)
Producer for bonnie: roy bittan
Oh baby - I was always around
To pick you up when you were falling down
Now baby - when you were crying the blues
Wasnt I the one that you came crying to?
In all the years gone by
Youve never seen me cry
I never let you see the other side of me
Chorus:
Where were you
When I needed somebody to lean on?
Yeah where were you
When I needed a shoulder to cry on?
I always held you close when you were feeling weak
Guess I was walking down a one-way street
I was a fool to think that youd be there for me
Where were you?
Oh baby - when you needed a friend
I stuck beside you girl through thick and thin

Dont Turn Around
(diane warren/ albert hammond)
Producer for bonnie: desmond child
If you wanna leave
I wont beg you to stay
And if you gotta go darling
Maybe its better that way
Im gonna be strong
Im gonna do fine
Dont worry about this heart of mine
Just walk out that door
Yeah see if I care
Go on and go now but
Dont turn around
Cause youre gonna see my heart breaking
Dont turn around
I dont want you seeing me cry
Just walk away
Its tearing me apart that youre leaving
Im letting you go
But I wont let you know

Its About Time
(ronnie scott/ steve wolfe)
Producers for bonnie: ronnie scott, steve wolfe
Recorded in 1978 as a b-side to hey love (its a feelin). lyrics taken from careful listening.
Its about time
We stopped foolin around
cause I cant go on loving like this
Its about time
You got closer to me
Its alright for a while
But were more than a mile apart
Are we just playing at lovers
Doing the right thing to do
Im always running for cover
When I ought to be running to you
Sometimes youre more like a stranger
And baby I think Ive lost you
Feels like Im heading for danger
When I ought to be heading for you
Its about time
We stopped foolin around

I Cant Leave Your Love Alone
(alan darby/ david madiran)
Producers for bonnie: alan darby & david madiran
Recorded in 1991 as a b-side to the bitteblue single. it also found its way onto the b-side of the 1991 re-release of holding out for a hero (slightly extended version) and the 1993 compilation the very best of..., where it was incorrectly billed as previously unreleased . lyrics taken from careful listening.
There is a shadow rolling over my heart
Like a cloud across the moon
There is a devil on my shoulder
Spreading his light into my room
Broken head and empty heart
Shattered mind thats torn apart
I fall, I stumble into the night
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
A wicked wind beats at my window
Telling me that Im no good
Theres no life in this bleak desert
Theres no life, without you
Broken head and empty heart
Shattered mind thats torn apart
I fall, I stumble into the night
I cant leave your love alone

(lee morris/ paul hopkins)
Producers for bonnie: morris, hopkins, williams
So many times before
You just walked out my door
Im telling you I cant take it
Cant take it any more
Everytime you make it happen
Feels so sad - cold and sad
Dont you miss my tender love
Temptation is knocking but you cant fight it
-you wont see me cry
Please baby baby come
-you wont see me cry
Please baby baby
-you wont see me cry
Please baby baby come
-you wont see me cry
Please baby baby
Im begging you not to go now
Please dont go away

Im sat here all alone
Here in my one room home
No one comes round no more
No one knocks on my door
Was high, then came the fall
The tax man took it all
I didnt play the rules
I was a careless fool
But its gonna get better
Feel it in my bones
Just got to hold you cause Im all alone
I need your touch
I need you here to stay
This time Ill never let you get away
They laughed at all my jokes
Look around, where are those crazy folks?
I think of real good times

Love Of A Rolling Stone
(j. chestnut)
Producers for bonnie: david mackay, ronnie scott, steve wolfe
You hate old chicago ,in the winter time
When the cold wind blows right through you
And you said it aint no fun
You called west a dream come true
Then one week it got the best of you
On a path lying in that oklahoma sun
Swore if this day ever came
Thered be no strings, no playing games
Misty eyes and sad goodbyes to say
When love is gone why try to put
A finger on what happened
When somewhere down the road
It slipped away
All I ever wanted was a baby in my arms
A wedding ring and a simple thing called home
All you ever gave me was a look at some old highway
The sky above and the love of a rolling stone
I remember when you told me

Piece Of My Heart
(j. ragavoy/ b. berns)
Producers for bonnie: david mackay, ronnie scott, steve wolfe
Didnt I make you feel
Like you were the only man
Didnt I give you everything
That a woman possibly can
Lord - but with all the love I give you
It aint never enough
Well, Im gonna show you baby
That a woman can be tough
So, come on, come on, come on, come on and
Break it
Break another little piece of my heart now baby
Take it
Take another little piece of my heart now honey
You can have it
Have another little piece of my heart now baby
You know youve got it
If it makes you feel good
Youre out on the street looking good

Time

Producer for bonnie: nicky graham
Recorded in 1983 as a b-side for the single have you ever seen the rain? . lyrics taken from careful listening.
We wait for the weekends to go out dancing
We work all week just to get our pay
cause where theres music there could be romancing
Were gonna dance the whole night away
You gotta take the time to relax your mind
Switch off and leave your worries behind
For time, it isnt on our side
We havent even got the time to play
Yeah, time
We need more time
Yeah, time
Were gonna have a good time
Trying to forget the working day
Dont take it easy
Dont take it slow, oh no, no, no, no
Cant you feel the burning?
Cant you feel the glow? ah yeah
