Lyrics featured below: "Words get in the way", "Rhythm is gonna get you", "Here we are"

Words get in the way

I realise you're seeing someone new
But I don't believe she knows you like I do
Your temperamental moody side
The one you always try to hide from me

But I know when you've got something on your mind
You've been trying to tell me for the longest time
But before you break my heart in two
There's something I've been trying to say to you

CHORUS
But the words get in the way
There's so much I want to say
But it's locked deep inside and if you look in my eyes
We might fall in love again
I won't even start to cry
Before we say goodbye
I'm trying to say I love you but the words get in the way

Your heart has always been an open book
But baby I don't even know you anymore
And despite the fact it's hurting me
I know the time has come to set you free

CHORUS
Repeat last line twice


Rhythm is gonna get you

O eh, o eh, o eh, o eh 
O eh, oo aah, o eh, oo aah
Yah ya goh
O eh, o eh, o eh, o eh 
O eh, oo aah, o eh, oo aah
O eh, o eh
Yah ya goh

At night when you turn off all the lights
There's no place that you can hide
Oh no, the rhythm is gonna get'cha

In bed, throw the covers on your head
You pretend like you are dead
But I know it
The rhythm is gonna gey'cha

Rhythm is gonna get'cha
Rhythm is gonna get'cha
Rhythm is gonna get you

The rhythm is gonna get you tonight

No way, you can fight it every day
But no matter what you say
You know it
The rhythm is gonna get'cha

No clue, of what's happening to you
And before this night is through
Ooh baby
The rhythm is gonna get'cha

Rhythm is gonna get'cha
Rhythm is gonna get'cha
Rhythm is gonna get you
The rhythm is gonna get you tonight

O eh, o eh, o eh, o eh 
O eh, oo aah, o eh, oo aah
O eh, o eh, o eh, o eh 
O eh, oo aah, o eh, oo aah
O eh, o eh
Yah yeh goh
Yah yeh goh
Yah yeh goh

Rhythm is gonna get'cha
Rhythm is gonna get'cha
Rhythm is gonna get you
The rhythm is gonna get you
Rhythm is gonna get'cha 
Rhythm is gonna get'cha 

Na na na na na na na na 
Na na na na na na na 
The rhythm is gonna get you
Na na na na na na na na 
Na na na na na na na 

O eh, o eh, o eh, o eh 
O eh, oo aah, o eh, oo aah
O eh, o eh, o eh, o eh 
O eh, oo aah, o eh, oo aah
O eh, o eh
Na na na na na na na 
Na na na na na na

Here we are

Here we are
Face to face
We forget, time and place
Hold me now 
Don't let go
Though it hurts and we both know 
The time we spend together's gonna fly
And everythings  you do to me 
Is gonna feel so right
Baby when you're loving me 
I feel like I could cry
'Cause there's nothing I can do
To keep from loving you

Here we are 
All alone
Trembling hearts, beating strong
Reaching out, a breathless kiss 
I never thought could feel like this
I want to stop the time from passing by
I wanna close my eyesand feel your lips are touching mine
Baby when you're close to me
I want you more each time
And there's nothing I can do, to keep from loving you

bridge:
There's nothing I can do
I'm helpless in your arms 
Oh baby what you do
I'm in love, this is it
There's no turning back this time
No no no

Here we are
Once again
But this time we're only friends 
Funny world
Sometimes lies
Become the game, when loves the prize
And though no one knows what's going on inside 
And all the love I feel for you 
Is something I should hide
When I have you close to me
The feelings so sublime 
That there's nothing I can do 
To keep from loving you
