Lionel Richie
A little something about Lionel Richie
I don't know much about Lionel Richie, nor am I going to spend too much time trying to find out. What I do know, however, is that
he was one of the members of The Commodores (duh!) and that he projected an annoyingly wholesome image in the 1980s especially.
I recently purchased a DVD with certain music videos of the '80s - Lionel Richie's "All Night Long" was on it. It's one of those
music videos which is so bad it's actually good - the dancers are dressed so colorfully that you're blinded, and Lionel Richie pulls off that
ultra-wholesome, unoffensive sort of look. Quite well done if I may say so myself.
If you know more about Lionel than I do, by all means email me and I'll put the info up here.
All Night Long
Well my friends the time has come
To raise the roof and have some fun
Throw away the work to be done
Let the music play on ...
Everybody sing, everybody dance
Lose yourself in wild romance
We're going to Parti', Karamu', Fiesta, forever
Come on and sing along
We're going to Parti', Karamu', Fiesta, forever
Come on and sing along
All night long (all night), All night (all night)
All night long (all night), All night (all night)
All night long (all night), All night (all night)
All night long (all night), Ooh yeah (all night)
People dancing all in the street
See the rhythm all in their feet
Life is good, wild and sweet
Let the music play on ...
Feel it in your heart and feel it in your soul
Let the music take control
We're going to Parti', Liming, Fiesta, forever
Come on and sing along
We're going to Parti', Liming, Fiesta, forever
Come on and sing my song
All night long (all night), Ooh (all night)
All night long (all night), Yeaz (all night)
All night long (all night), Yeah (all night)
All night long (all night), ... (all night)
Yeah, once you get started you can't sit down
Come join the fun, it's a merry-go-round
Everyone's dancing their troubles away
Come join our party, SEE HOW WE PLAY!

(All night to Fade)
You Are
Baby you'll find
There's only one love
Yours and mine
I've got so much love
And needing you so
My love for you
I'll never let go
I've got so much love
All I want is to hold you
Let me show how much I love you baby (Show you)
I don't mind and I don't mind (Loving you)
Girl I love you
There's no one above you
(Chorus)
You are the sun
You are the rain
That makes my life this foolish game
You need to know
I love you so
And I'd do it all again and again
Tell me it's true
I can't believe you do what you do
I've got so much love
And my love you'll see
We'll stay together, just you and me
I've got so much love
Only you (know me)
Tell me how to love you baby (show me)
I don't mind and I don't mind (tell me)
Girl, I love you
Always thinking of you
(Chorus)
You are the sun
You are the rain
That makes my life this foolish game
You need to know
I love you so
And I'd do it all again and again
I know you know the way I feel
And I need your love for always
Cause when I'm with you
I fall in love
Again and again and again, Baby.
(Repeat Chorus)
Hello
I've been alone with you inside my mind
And in my dreams I've kissed your lips a thousand times
I sometimes see you pass outside my door
Hello, is it me you're looking for?
I can see it in your eyes
I can see it in your smile
You're all I've ever wanted, (and) my arms are open wide
'Cause you know just what to say
And you know just what to do
And I want to tell you so much, I love you ...
I long to see the sunlight in your hair
And tell you time and time again how much I care
Sometimes I feel my heart will overflow
Hello, I've just got to let you know
'Cause I wonder where you are
And I wonder what you do
Are you somewhere feeling lonely, or is someone loving you?
Tell me how to win your heart
For I haven't got a clue
But let me start by saying, I love you ...
Hello, is it me you're looking for?
'Cause I wonder where you are
And I wonder what you do
Are you somewhere feeling lonely or is someone loving you?
Tell me how to win your heart
For I haven't got a clue
But let me start by saying ... I love you
Running with the night
The heart of the city street was beating
Light from the neons turned the dark to day
We were too hot to think of sleeping
We had to get out before the magic got away
(Chorus)
We were running with the night
Playing in the shadows
Just you and I, 'til the morning light
(We were running, running with the night)
You were looking so good girl, heads were turning
You and me on the town ooh, we let it all hang out
The fire was in us, we were burning
We were gonna go all the way and we never had a doubt
(Chorus)
We were running with the night
Playing in the shadows
Just you and I, 'til the morning light
(We were running, running with the night)
(Bridge)
We were so in love you and me
On the boulevard wild and free
Giving all we got, we laid it down
Taking every shot, we took the town
(Chorus)
We were running with the night
Playing in the shadows
Just you and I, girl it was so right, so right
(We were running) Oh (running with the night)
Just you and I (we were running)
We were running with the night
Playing in the shadows
Just you and I, girl it was so right (We were running)
Girl so right (running with the night)
So right ...
(Fade to end)
Ballerina Girl
Ballerina Girl
You are so lovely
With you standing there
I'm so aware
Of how much I care for you
You are more than now
You are for always
I can see in you
My dreams come true
Don't you ever go away
You make me feel like
There's nothing I can't do
And when I hold you
I only want to say
I love you
Ballerina Girl
The joy you bring me
Every day and night
Holding you tight
How I've waited for your love
Sometimes I've wondered
If you'd ever come my way
Now that I've finally found you
This is where my heart will stay
I'm never gonna break your heart
Never will we drift apart
'Cause all I wanna do
Is share my whole life with you
'Cause you make me feel like
There's nothing I can't do
I guess I finally realized
There's nothing else like loving you
Ballerina Girl
You are so lovely
I can see in you
My dreams come true
Don't you ever go away
Ballerina Girl...
Say you, Say me
Say you, say me
Say it for always
That's the way it should be
Say you, say me
Say it together naturally!
I had a dream
I had an awesome dream
People in the park
Playing games in the dark
And what they played was a masquerade
From behind the walls of doubt
A voice was crying out!
Say you, say me
Say it for always
That's the way it should be
Say you, say me
Say it together naturally!
As we go down life's lonesome highway
Seems the hardest thing to do
Is to find a friend or two
That helping hand, someone who understands
When you feel you've lost your way
You've got some one there to say
I'll show you! Ooh, ooh!
Say you, say me
Say it for always
That's the way it should be
Say you, say me
Say it together naturally!
So you think you know the answer oh, no
Well, the whole worlds got'yya dancin'
That's right I'm telling you
It's time to start believin'
Oh, yes!
Believe in who you are
You are a shining star!
Say you, say me
Say it for always
Oh, that's the way it should be
Say you, say me
Say it together naturally!
Say it together naturally!
