My hands were tied for that moment with you...















George Michael - A Moment With You

You can't keep holding it in when it's something good

Hey this won't take much time
We won't touch, we'll just wait for signs
And nothing was further from my mind
Than this moment with you

But if you'd only told me baby
I would have made some other plans
If I'd only seen it sooner
But what a way with your hands you had
I wanted that moment with you

I know that it's wrong
But "if you need me, I'm here", turns me on
I can't help thinking it's a miracle you're here
I can't help thinking it's a miracle

Say, don't waste much time
We don't touch, do we baby?
But still my hands are tied
For that moment with you

But if you'd only told me baby
I would have made some other plans
If I'd only seen it sooner
But what a way with your hands you have
I wanted that moment with you

You know that I'm strong
And I've no reason to fear, am I wrong?
I can't help thinking it's a miracle you're here
I can't help thinking it's a miracle
I can't help thinking it's american
I can't help thinking it's a miracle
I can't help thinking it's a miracle you're here

You can't keep holding it in when it's something good
Get up, get up
You can't keep holding it in when it's something good
Get up,get up

And who can you trust? Dealing out justice
With a minimum of fuss
Who baby
Dealing out justice...

If I was able...I'd be there instead...

















George Michael - A Last Request

It's late
Time for bed
So I sit, and wait
For that gin and tonic
To go to your head

I know
It's a devious plan
But it's the only way that I know
To get those big bad car keys
Out of your hand

You know
That I remain a gentle man
But even so
There's only so much
A gentleman can stand
Sleep with me
Oh sleep with me tonight

My cards are on your table
My dreams are in your bed
If I was able
I'd be there instead

Sleep with me tonight...

Won't you help me save me from myself?



















George Michael - To Be Forgiven

I'm going down
Won't you help me
Save me from myself
I hear the sound of a memory
Maybe time will tell

Suddenly my life is like a river
Taking me places I don't want to go
But like all good men who swim too well
It takes all that I have just to cry for help
Then that voice in my head
Tells me no

I'm going down
Won't you help me
Save me from myself
I look around for a fantasy
Maybe
Who can tell?

Let me live my life beside the river
Take me to places where a child can grow
And then
Maybe...maybe
The boy inside will forsake me

Maybe
The child in me
Will just let me go

I'm going down
The cold, cold water is rushing in
I'm going down
And I would beg to be forgiven
If I knew my sin
If I knew my sin

Save me, save me
Save me, save me

I'm going down
I'm going down
I'm going down
I'm going down...

I know you want to...but you can't say yes...










George Michael - Outside

I think I'm done with the sofa
I think I'm done with the hall
I think I'm done with the kitchen table, baby

Let's go outside (let's go outside)
In the sunshine
I know you want to, but you can't say yes
Let's go outside
In the moonshine
Take me to the places that I love best

So my angel she says, don't you worry
'Bout the things they're saying, yeah
Got no friends in high places
And the game that you gave away
Wasn't worth playing

Let's go outside
In the sunshine
I know you want to, but you can't say yes
Let's go outside
In the meantime
Take me to the places that I love best

And yes I've been bad
Doctor won't you do with me what you can
You see I think about it all the time
Twenty four seven

You say you want it, you got it
I never really said it before
There's nothing here but flesh and bone
There's nothing more, nothing more
There's nothing more

Back to nature, just human nature
Getting on back to -

I think I'm done with the sofa
I think I'm done with the hall
I think I'm done with the kitchen table, baby

Let's go outside
In the sunshine
I know you want to, but you can't say yes
Let's go outside
In the moonshine
Take me to the places that I love best

And yes I've been bad
Doctor won't you do with me what you can
You see I think about it all the time
I'd service the community
(but I already have you see!)

I never really said it before
There's nothing here but flesh and bone
There's nothing more, nothing more
There's nothing more

Let's go outside
Dancing on the d-train baby

When the moon is high
And the grass is jumpin'
Come on, just keep on funkin'
Keep on funkin', just keep on funkin'

Hey...I ain’t Mr. Right...












George Michael - Fastlove

Looking for some education
Made my way into the night
All that bullshit conversation
Well baby can’t you read the signs?

I won’t bore you with the details baby
I don’t even want to waste your time
Let’s just say that maybe
You could help to ease my mind
Baby, I ain’t Mr. Right

But if you’re looking for fastlove
If that’s love in your eyes
It’s more than enough
Had some bad luck
So fastlove is all that I’ve got on my mind

What’s there to think about baby?

Looking for some affirmation
Made my way into the sun
My friends got their ladies
They’re all having babies
But I just want to have some fun

I won't bore you with the details baby
Gonna get there in your own sweet time
Let's just say that maybe
You could help to ease my mind
Baby, I ain't Mr. Right


But if you’re looking for fastlove
If that’s love in your eyes
It’s more than enough
Had some bad luck
So fastlove is all that I’ve got on my mind

What’s there to think about baby?
Get yourself some lessons in love

In the absence of security
I made my way into the night
Stupid cupid keeps on calling me
But I see nothing in his eyes
I miss my baby, oh yeah
I miss my baby, tonight
So why don’t we make a little room in my BMW babe
Searching for some peace of mind
Hey I’ll help you find it
I do believe that we are practicing the same religion
You really ought to get up now

Looking for some affirmation...?

Why should I imagine that I was designed for you? Why should I believe that you would stay...?
















George Michael - Cowboys And Angels

When your heart's in someone else's hands
Monkey see and monkey do
Their wish is your command
You're not to blame
Everyone's the same

All you do is love and love is all you do
I should know by now the way I fought for you
You're not to blame
Everyone's the same

I know you think that you're safe
Mister
Harmless deception
That keeps love at bay
It's the ones who resist that we most want to kiss
Wouldn't you say?

Cowboys and angels
They all have the time for you
Why should I imagine that I'd be a find for you
Why should I imagine
That I'd have something to say

But that scar on your face
That beautiful face of yours
In your heart there's a trace
Of someone before

When your heart's in someone else's plans
Things you say and things you do
They don't understand
It's such a shame
Always ends the same

You can call it love but I don't think it's true
You should know by now
I'm not the boy for you
You're not to blame
Always ends the same

I know you think that you're safe
Sister
Harmless affection
That keeps things this way
It's the ones who persist for the sake of a kiss
Who will pay

Cowboys and angels
They all take a shine to you
Why should I imagine that I was designed for you
Why should I believe
That you would stay

But that scar on your face
That beautiful face of yours
Don't you think that I know
They've hurt you before

Take this man to your bed
Maybe his hands will help you to forget
Please be stronger than your past
The future may still give you a chance

When you say that you need me, that you'll never leave me, I know you're wrong, you're not that strong...








George Michael - One More Try

I've had enough of danger
And people on the streets
I'm looking out for angels
Just trying to find some peace
Now I think it's time
That you let me know
So if you love me
Say you love me

But if you don't just let me go...

'Cos teacher
There are things that I don't want to learn
And the last one I had
Made me cry
So I don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him good-bye, good-bye, good-bye

When you were just a stranger
And I was at your feet
I didn't feel the danger
Now I feel the heat
That look in your eyes
Telling me no
So you think that you love me
Know that you need me
I wrote the song,
I know it's wrong
Just let me go...

And teacher
There are things
That I don't want to learn
Oh the last one I had
Made me cry
So I don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him good-bye
Good-bye, good-bye

So when you say that you need me
That you'll never leave me
I know you're wrong, you're not that strong
Let me go

And teacher
There are things
That I still have to learn
But the one thing I have is my pride
Oh so I don't want to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because there ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Who just isn't willing to try

I'm so cold
Inside
Maybe just one more try...

But something good has happened to me...












George Michael - Older

I should have known, it seemed too easy
You were there and I was feeling blue

Strange, baby
Don't you think I'm looking older?

But something good has happened to me
Change is a stranger you have yet to know

Well you're out of time I'm letting go
You'll be fine, well that much I know
You're out of time I'm letting go
I'm not the man that you want

I should have known, it seemed so easy
You were there I thought I needed you

Strange Baby
Don't you think I'm looking older?

But something good has happened to me
Change is a stranger who never seems to show

Well you're out of time
I'm letting go
You'll be fine
(or maybe you won't)

You're out of time
I'm letting go
I'm not the man that you want

I never should have looked back in your direction
I know that just the same old fights again, baby
These are wasted days without affection
I'm not that foolish anymore

Yes, those clouds are closing in...









George Michael - Spinning The Wheel
Five o'clock in the morning you ain't home
I can't help thinking that's strange Baby
I just want you to know I won't go through this again
Yes, those clouds are closing in (Baby love)

And I will not accept this as a part of my life
I will not live in fear of what may be
(And the lessons that I learned ...)
I would rather be alone than watch you spinning
Spinning that wheel for me

You've got a thing about danger
Ain't you getting what you want from me
You've got a thing about strangers
Baby that's what we used to be
You've got a thing about danger baby
I guess the hungry just can't see
One of this days you gonna bring some home to me

Six o'clock in the morning you ain't phoned
I can't help thinking it's strange
It seems that everybody takes their chances these days
Oh yeah, we're standing in the rain

And I will not accept this as a part of my life
I will not live in fear of what may be
(And the lessons I have learned ...)
I would rather be alone than watch you spinning
Spinning that wheel for me

Got a thing about danger
Ain't you getting what you want from me?
Baby don't you love that trash?
Got a thing about strangers
Oh baby, that's what we used to be
I know you're always chasing that ass
Like it's going out of fashion baby
You've got a thing about danger baby
I guess the hungry (Just can't see)
Just can't see
One of these days you're gonna bring some home to me

How can you love me when you're playing with my life?
You say give me time and I'll do better I swear
Give me time and I'll lead you back to despair
And I don't want to go back there
I don't want to go back there

I'm never going back to that
And that's a fact baby
One of these days you gonna bring some home
To me
To me

You must have been kissing a fool...










George Michael - Kissing A Fool

You are far,
When I could have been your star,
You listened to people,
Who scared you to death, and from my heart,
Strange that you were strong enough,
To even make a start,
But you'll never find
Peace of mind,
Till you listen to your heart,

People,
You can never change the way they feel,
Better let them do just what they will,
For they will,
If you let them,
Steal your heart from you,
People,
Will always make a lover feel a fool,
But you knew I loved you,
We could have shown them all,
We should have seen love through,

Fooled me with the tears in your eyes,
Covered me with kisses and lies,
So goodbye,
But please don't take my heart,

You are far,
I'm never gonna be your star,
I'll pick up the pieces
And mend my heart,
Maybe I'll be strong enough,
I don't know where to start,
But I'll never find
Peace of mind,
While I listen to my heart,

People,
You can never change the way they feel,
Better let them do just what they will,
For they will,
If you let them,
Steal your heart,

And people,
Will always make a lover feel a fool,
But you knew I loved you,
We could have shown them all,

But remember this,
Every other kiss,
That you ever give
Long as we both live
When you need the hand of another man,
One you really can surrender with,
I will wait for you,
Like I always do,
There's something there,
That can't compare with any other,

You are far,
When I could have been your star,
You listened to people,
Who scared you to death, and from my heart,
Strange that I was wrong enough,
To think you'd love me too.
I guess you were kissing a fool,
You must have been kissing a fool
