Dionne Warwick & Stevie Wonder & Luther Vandross & Whitney Houston - That's What Friends Are For


         
And I 
Never thought I'd feel this way
And as far as I'm concerned 
I'm glad I got the chance to say
That I do believe I love you 

And if I should ever go away
Well then close your eyes and try 
to feel the way we do today
And than if you can't remember.....

Keep smilin'
Keep shinin'
Knowin' you can always count on me 
for sure
that's what friends are for

In good times
And bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for

Well you came and open me
And now there's so much more I see
And so by the way I thank you....

Ohhh and then 
For the times when we're apart
Well just close your eyes and know
These words are comming from my heart
And then if you can't remember
         

Roy Orbison - Pretty Woman


         
Pretty woman, walking down the street
Pretty woman, the kind I like to meet
Pretty woman
I don't believe you, you're not the truth
No one could look as good as you
Mercy

Pretty woman, won't you pardon me
Pretty woman, I couldn't help see
Pretty woman
That you look lovely as can be
Are you lonely just like me
Wow

Pretty woman, stop a while
Pretty woman, talk a while
Pretty woman, give your smile to me
Pretty woman, yeah yeah yeah
Pretty woman, look my way
Pretty woman, say you'll stay with me
'Cause I need you, I'll treat you right
Come with me baby, be mine tonight

Pretty woman, don't walk on by
Pretty woman, don't make me cry
Pretty woman, don't walk away, hey...okay
If that's the way it must be, okay
I guess I'll go on home, it's late
There'll be tomorrow nigh, but wait
What do I see
Is she walking back to me
Yeah, she's walking back to me
Oh, oh, Pretty woman
         

Whitney Houston - One Moment In Time


         
Each day I live
I want to be
A day to give
The best of me
I'm only one
But not alone
My finest day
Is yet unknown

I broke my heart
Fought every gain
To taste the sweet
I face the pain
I rise and fall
Yet through it all
This much remains

I want one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will feel
I will feel eternity

I've lived to be
The very best
I want it all
No time for less
I've laid the plans
Now lay the chance
Here in my hands

Give me one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will feel
I will feel eternity

You're a winner for a lifetime
If you seize that one moment in time
Make it shine

Give me one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will be
I will be
I will be free
I will be
I will be free
         

Whitney Houston - All At Once


         
All at once, 
I finally took a moment and I'm realizing that 
You're not coming back 
And it finally hit me all at once 
All at once, 
I started counting teardrops 
and at least a million fell 
My eyes began to swell, 
And all my dreams were shattered 
all at once 

Ever since I met you 
You're the only love I've known 
And I can't forget you 
Though I must face it all alone 
All at once, 
I'm drifting on a lonely sea
Wishing you'd come back to me 
And that's all that matters now 
All at once, 
I'm drifting on a lonely sea 
Holding on to memories 
And it hurts me more than you know 
So much more than it shows 
All at once 

All at once,
I looked around and found that 
you were with another love 
In someone else's arms,
And all my dreams were shattered, 
all at once 
All at once
The smile that used to greet me 
brightened someone else's day 
She took your smile away
And left me with just memories, 
all at once 

All at once 
I'm drifting on a lonely sea, 
Wishing youd come back to me, 
And it hurts me more than you know,
So much more THAN it shows,
All at once
And thats all that matters now 
All at once 
And im drifting on a lonely sea......
         

Whitney Houston - Try It On My Own


         
I’m wiser now
I’m not the foolish girl you used to know
So long ago
I’m stronger now
I’ve learned from my mistakes which way to go
And I should know
I put myself aside to do it your way
But now I need to do it all alone

And I am not afraid to try it on my own
I don’t care if I’m right or wrong
I’ll live my life the way I feel
No matter what I’ll keep it real you know
Time for me to do it on my own
Yeah yeah, mmm, yeah yeah

It’s over now
I can’t go back to living through your eyes
Too many lines
And if you don’t know by now
I can’t go back to being someone else
Not anymore
I never had a chance to do things my way
So now it’s time for me to take control

And I am not afraid to try it on my own
I don’t care if I’m right or wrong
I’ll live my life the way I feel
No matter what I’m gonna keep it real you know
Time for me to do it

Oh I start again go back to one
I’m running things my way
Can’t stop me now, I’ve just begun
Don’t even think about it
There ain’t no way about it
I’m taking names, the ones of mine
Yes I’m gonna take my turn
It’s time for me to finally stand alone, stand alone

I am not afraid to try it on my own
And I don’t care if I’m right or wrong
I’ll live my life the way I feel
No matter what I’m gonna keep it real you know
It’s time for me to do it
See I’m not afraid
