let

Sadness had been close as my next of kin
Then happy came one day, chased my blues away
My life began when happy smiled
Sweet, like candy to a child
Stay here and love me just a while
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be where sadness was

Happy, that’s you
You made my life brand new
Lost as a little lam was I till you came in
My life began when happy smiled
Sweet, like candy to a child
Stay here and love me just a while
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be where sadness was
(till now)

Where have I been?
What lifetime was I in?
Suspended between time and space
Lonely until happy came smiling up at me
Sadness had no choice but to flee
I said a prayer so silently
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be where sadness was till now

Everybody loves the star
When he's on the top
But noone ever comes around
When he starts to drop

But you were someone special
You stuck through thick and thin
But I was much too busy
Trying to shine
To let your love shine in

Let you slip away
I must have been insane
Stop in the name of love
Don't make me live my life in vain

(Chorus)
Give me one more chance
That's all I ask of you
Just one more chance
I'll make it up to you
Just one more chance
That's all I ask of you
I'll build you a world for two
I'll make it up to you

Now since I'm all alone
I'm talking to myself
I know you're out there somewhere
Having fun with someone else

But a distant voice of hope
Echo from within, sayin'
(Don't give up)
(Your ship is comin' in)

Though my ship's alone
I'll play right to the end
I'm crying outside
heaven's door
Won't you let me back in


You'll never know
What I've been through
Let your love shine in again
This time I'll shine with you

When I had you to myself, I didn't want you around
Those pretty faces always make you stand out in a crowd
But someone picked you from the bunch, one glance is all it took
Now it's much too late for me to take a second look

Oh baby, give me one more chance
(To show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me back in your heart
Oh darlin', I was blind to let you go
(Let you go, baby)
But now since I've seen you it is on
(I want you back)
Oh I do now
(I want you back)
Ooh ooh baby
(I want you back)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
(I want you back)
Na na na na

Trying to live without your love is one long sleepness night
Let me show you, girl, that I know wrong from right
Every street you walk on, I leave tear stains on the ground
Following the girl I didn't even want around

Let me tell ya now
Oh baby, all I need is one more chance
(To show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me back in your heart
Oh darlin', I was blind to let you go
(Let you go, baby)
But now since I've seen you it is on

All I want...
All I need...
All I want!
All I need!

Oh, just one more chance
To show you that I love you
Baby baby baby baby baby baby!
(I want you back)
Forget what happened then
(I want you back)
And let me live again!

Oh baby, I was blind to let you go
But now since I've seen you it is on
(I want you back)
Spare me of this cost
(I want you back)
Give me back what I lost!

Oh baby, I need one more chance, hah
I'd show you that I love you
Baby, oh! Baby, oh! Baby, oh!
I want you back!
I want you back!

Don't let Your Baby Catch you Lyrics:
don't let your baby catch you
don't let your baby catch you
don't let your baby catch you fooling around
you just might lose the best thing you ever found
don't let your baby catch you fooling around

oh, the nights are long and twice as cold
without my baby's hand to hold
my happiness is fading away

just like a thief i tried to steal a kiss
from another pretty miss
my baby was the price that i paid

now listen fellas (think twice) think twice
if you have cheating on your mind (watch your step)
remember the punishment will fit the crime

chorus

oh, i hope it's not too late for me
to right my wrong and foolish deed
i'm gonna crawl all the way back on my knees

and if that don't do i'll get the moon
and set it down in front of her
oh, before i even say please

oh, if i get one more chance my
life will be as good as new
and i would not forget the days
the sun will not shine through

don't let your baby catch you
don't let your baby catch you
don't let your baby catch you fooling around
take me back, take me back, take me back yeah

don't let her, your baby catch you
you just might lose the best thing you ever found
tell 'em 'bout it mike

if you're crazy 'bout your baby
and she's crazy 'bout you
just think of what you'll do to her
if she was untrue

chorus
