Great Expectations
(eric carmen)
Seems everyday
Im gettin harder pressed
To find a reason to shave
Watchin the hours
Just slippin away
No motivation to get out of bed
And carry on the charade
Caught in a dream thats goin astray
Oh, all those great expectations
Seems they never work out, never work out
The way that I plan
All those great expectations
Why they never work out, never work out
I cant understand
And just when I think
That things are goin right
I get a call from l.a.
Sorry to say were changin your song
I try to reason

Tonight
(eric carmen)
When you smiled at me
And I saw your eyes
All I ever wanted to be
Was in your arms tonight
You looked too young to know about romance
(oh, yes you did)
But when you smiled I had to take a chance
I had to take a chance and be with you tonight
Ill be with you tonight
Tonight, youll love me too, tonight
Woh, baby, tonight
Ill make love to you
(woh, tonight!)
Bop-om-doo-don o-mop shoop
(woh, tonight!)
Youre gonna love me, too!
Tonight!
I dont know myself
If its wrong or right

Havent We Come A Long Way
(eric carmen)
Baby
Life has come between a lot of happy people
But the world has never had a broken heart
So dont you let it get you too discouraged
Sometimes bein in love takes a lot of courage
Havent we come a long way, baby
To let this foolish world
Tear us both apart
Oh darlin
(I said)
After all weve been through, baby
If you left me now
You know its got to break my heart
Baby
Everybody tells me the things I ought to be
And all the while Im just tryin to make ends meet
Dont you let it bring you down, now honey
cause the love that we got doesnt cost any money
Havent we come a long way, baby

Last Night
(eric carmen)
I think Ill stay at home tonight
Just play some records
And catch up on some sleep
Sometimes I like to be alone
Ive been so busy
Maybe someone will drop by
Last night when I went to bed
I was lonely
Last night when I went to bed
I was so blue
But thats the last night
Yeah, thats the last night
Well, thats the last night
Im gonna lose any sleep over you
I waited for the phone to ring
And when it didnt
I turned on the carson show
I lit another cigarette
And dialed your number

Inside Story
(eric carmen)
I heard my friends
Talkin bout your reputation
All the things you used to do
They called you cheap
Said a lot of guys had had you
Girl, I dont believe its true, no
But its alright
Im not in it for the glory
Yes, its alright
Got to know the inside story
The inside story
All about your love
About your love
Talkin bout the inside story
All about your love
You say they lied
Well, it really doesnt matter
Doesnt matter what youve done
Turn off the lights

I Was Born To Love You
(eric carmen/andy goldmark)
I never really understood love
No, not until I saw your face
Then I knew what Id been missing
For all my life
I never let myself believe it
No, not till I looked into your eyes
Then I knew I found all I need
The moment that I found you
I was born to love you
Born to be right here by your side
Through all your darkest nights
I was born to love you
Id do anything to make you mine
Until the end of time
Theres no need to ever doubt it
You set my love free when you walked in the door
You changed everything
Youre all that Im living for
I was born to love you

I Reach For The Light
(eric carmen)
I cant begin to count the times
I have been by myself
I lie wake my lonely room
Tells me theres no one else
No one else
I reach for the light
It shines above my head
Reveals the bed that youre not in
I reach for the light
It shines across the room
And brings to mind what might have been
I tell myself Im better off
No one can have me now
I see your crumpled photograph
It makes me laugh aloud
Laugh aloud
I reach for the light
It shines above my head
Reveals the bed that youre not in

I Can Remember
(eric carmen)
I can remember summer skies and your eyes
And in september when I first realized
That I needed you to be the other half of me
And my love long locked inside itself
Had finally been set free
I can remember autumn skies and goodbyes
Hurting so badly that I thought I would die
But the more things seem to change
The more they stay the same
And the lonely ones get lonelier
With every passing day
From the day we met I knew that
I should never let you get a hold on me
cause now you see I cant forget you
Oh i, I can remember mid summer skies
Love in your eyes
In the spring the sun will shine
And make the ice surrender
But it will not warm my heart

Almost Paradise
(eric carmen/dean pitchford)
I thought that dreams belonged to other men
cause each time I got close
Theyd fall apart again
I feared my heart would beat in secrecy
I faced the nights alone
Oh, how could I have known
That all my life I only needed you?
Whoa
Almost paradise
Were knockin on heavens door
Almost paradise
How could we ask for more?
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
Paradise
It seems like perfect loves so hard to find
Id almost given up
You must have read my mind
And all these dreams I saved for a rainy day
Theyre finally coming true

Southern Comfort
(eric carmen)
Recorded by the quick
Epic 10516 / 1969
Northern lovins mean, so cold and weary
You know, I got to go down south to get love right
And the way they love down south
You know it makes my blood run hot
I need some southern comfort, hey, hey, hey
Gimme some of your southern comfort, hey, hey, hey
Well Ive had my fill of gold I trade for women
Now I need some southern hospitality
And the way they love down south,
You know it makes my blood run hot
I need some southern comfort, hey, hey, hey
Gimme some of your southern comfort, hey, hey, hey
So if you wanna keep me satisfied
You gotta give me some southern comfort tonight
Well Ive had my fill of gold I trade for women
No, I need some southern hospitality
And the way they love down south,
