Peter CETERA

I don't wanna lose you
I don't want you walking away
We're so good together
Tell me it's forever--'cause I want you to stay

I'll be damned if I'm living without you
And as long as I live, you will know
I just wanna build my world around you
Don't want you to go

Don't leave me here with my restless heart
The one you filled with emotion baby
Right from the start
'Cause the hardest part
Is being alone
With my restless heart

Tell me where you want me
Anytime I don't care
Tell me when you need me
'Cause baby when you need me, I will be right there

I don't wanna build a wall around you
Don't want you to go

Don't leave me here with my restless heart
The one you filled with emotion baby
Right from the start
'Cause the hardest part
Is being alone
With my restless heart

I'll be damned if I'm living without you
And as long as I live, you will know
I just wanna build my world around you
I don't want you to go

Don't leave me here with my restless heart
The one you filled with emotion right from the start
'Cause the hardest part is being alone
With my restless heart

2. Even A Fool Can See

---

One big happy family
Together the rest of our lives
As far as our friends were concerned
Everything seemed right

But that's when she told me
She said me it was time to move on
Just something that she kept inside
That told me the thrill was gone

And now I can't believe
I can't believe it's over
Suddenly it's plain to see
She's leaving me and

Even a fool can see
There's nothing left between us
I knew all along something was wrong
But I did my best to deny it
And now I can't go home
She wants to be alone so
Tell anyone who misses me that I'm alright
Even a fool can see

There were times we had nothing
And somehow we laughed through it all
There are moments I'll never forget
And some I wouldn't care to recall

And still I can't believe
I can't believe it's over
Suddenly it's plain to see
She's doesn't need me

Even a fool can see
There's nothing left between us
I knew all along something was wrong
But I did my best to deny it
And now I can't go home
She wants to be alone so
Tell anyone who misses me that I'm alright
Even a fool can see

Nothing more to talk about
It's over when it's over
In the end you both stop trying
In the end it's oh so sad
And you are crying

And now I can't go home
She wants to be alone so
Tell anyone who misses me that I'm alright
Even a fool can see

Won't ya tell me that I'm alright
Even a fool like me

Woo ooo I'm alright
Even a fool can see
Whoa ooo ooo ooo

3. Feels Like Heaven

---

All through my wandering years
I always said I was biding my time
But alone in the dark I'd face my fears
That no other heart would come to mine

At first when you found me
It took me a while 'til I realized
Why I felt weak when you were around me
Why I couldn't speak when I looked in your eyes

All this time I've been searching
Until you, I was lost in my dreams
And I never knew that love could feel like heaven
Watching over me

Oh wherever you go
Invisible hands reach over the miles
For every wish you make to the stars
There's one silent kiss I send to the sky

All this time I've been searching
Until you I was lost in my dreams
And I never knew that love could feel like heaven
Watching over me

Everything has changed
Since you came my way
'Cause you put the color
In a world of grey
And you make the love
That carries me away

All this time I've been searching
Until you I was lost in my dreams
And I never knew that love could feel like heaven
Watching over me
Feels like heaven
Watching over me

4. Wild Ways

---

You and me
We were the last of the line
Young and free
We were two of a kind

We ran the streets together
The night would last forever
Oh do you remember when

Whatever happened to our wild ways
The hungry beat of our younger days
We swore we'd never let them get away
But so long to our wild ways

You and me
Driving to the ocean at night
Running free
Trying to stay ahead of the light

The road ran through the morning
Time passed without a warning sign
Oh we were the reckless kind

Whatever happened to our wild ways
The hungry beat of our younger days
We swore we'd never let them get away
But so long to our wild ways

Baby we could be free once again
I'll take you away from this town
You know I won't let you down
You know I won't let you down

Whatever happened to our wild ways
The hungry beat of our younger days

We swore we'd never let them get away
But so long to our wild ways

5. World Falling Down

---

I never thought life would be easy
Take it from me it's not easy
When you're living on your own
And now I face it (and even now I take it)
One day at a time (one step at a time)

Then I try to rise
Each time I fall
Try to find a way
Of getting through it all

I used to believe in you
Now I need someone else to turn to
Any though it's only a matter of time

That when you lose the magic
Suddenly your world comes falling down
All around you
And though it seems so tragic
Even when there's no one else around
You hear the sound
Of another world falling down

Leaving your memories behind me
Hoping that nothing reminds me
Praying that I can forget
And even now I take it
One step at a time, and now I

Face the future eye to eye
I know it won't be easy, but I'll get by

6. Man In Me

---

There's a man in me who's lost his way
And he searches for his pride
He's confused by who he's told to be
'Cause he feels the beast inside

He is troubled by the changing times
And he fears his dreams have died
There's a man that's waited
Hoping to be liberated

There's a man in me who
I wanna save
Revive his dignity
Free from his cage
And release the man in me who
Cries for the day
He will be let out
And show us the way
I believe there's a man in me

I have lived inside my mother's eyes
I have felt my father's heart
I am torn between the dark and light
But I won't be torn apart

'Cause there's a man in me who's unafraid
Who only now can feel his rage
He's been taught to hide it
But he can no longer fight it

There's a man in me who
I wanna save
Revive his dignity
Free from his cage
And release the man in me who
Cries for the day
He will be let out
And show us the way
I believe there's a man in me

Here we are
I didn't think we'd get this far
We were overdue
When it's time
To understand the man
Then I can love
The woman in you

There's a man that's waited
Hoping to be liberated

There's a man in me who
I wanna save
Revive his dignity
Free from his cage
And release the man in me who
Cries for the day
He will be let out
And show us the way
I believe there's a man in me

7. Where There's No Tomorrow

---

Didn't want to face a long hot summer
Didn't want to spend another lonely night
Didn't want to stay until I met you
You could tell that we were made for each other
Something in the air and the time was right
Came into my life, oh, I can't forget you

I don't want to leave tomorrow
Yes I said it all inside of a letter
That I put in your hand when we walked in the sand
Don't you understand

I don't want to go where there's no tomorrow
You go your way, I'll go mine
Each one missing what they left behind
I don't wanna go where there's no tomorrow
Help me try to make a dream come true
I don't wanna leave if I can't be with you

Wouldn't ever change a thing for a minute
Seems the waters always deeper when you're in it
That's the way it goes
Not the way I planned it

I don't want to leave without you
I don't want to go if you won't follow
Told you once, tell you once again
I don't want this summer to ever end
Gonna be there when I can

8. Last Place God Made

---

I've seen the best of times
I've seen the worst of times
'Been around and I've taken my chances
(But) I could never be tied down
Too many questions--not enough answers

Then I laid eyes on you
I knew right there and then
This would be more than a passing encounter
My fate is bound to yours
I've found a cause right here

And if this is the last place God made
And yours is the last face I see
Just feeling close to you
That's good enough for me

We've seen the best of times
We've seen the worst of times
Been through hell and high water together
Diamond bright and tear stained mem'ries
These are the times I'll remember forever

If you believe in me--like I believe in you
Without a care for the why or the wherefore
I will be there for you
And you'll be there for me

And If this is the last place God made
And yours is the last face I see
Just feeling close to you
It's good enough for me

If this is the last place God made
You know it's the only place I want to be
Just feeling close to you
That's good enough for me

If this is the last place God made
You know it's the only place I want to be
Just feeling close to you
It's good enough for me

9. Dip Your Wings

---

If you see me coming up an open road
With an empty glass and a single rose
Take a turn towards the shifting light
There you'll see my shadow lost in the night

Endless flight has no directions now
To a coward's kiss from a hero's vow
If I could find the words, I'd pick up the phone
If I was half a man, I wouldn't sleep alone

Send me no more angels on a restless wind
All I ever wanted were the simple things
If a love like ours means anything
Show me a sign, honey, dip your wings

Oh you shook your head like a wild horse
Beneath the southern cross in the frozen North
Oh when our bodies touched on that burning beach
I could have sworn that heaven was within our reach

Send me no more angels on a restless wind
All I ever wanted were the simple things
If a love like ours means anything
Show me a sign, honey, dip your wings

Time just crawls here behind my eyes
If the scar heals, can our love survive
Life's only purpose seems so distant now
If thee's a chance at all won't you show me how

Send me no more angels on a restless wind
All I ever wanted were the simple things
If a love like ours means anything
Show me a sign, honey, dip your wings

10. Have You Ever Been In Love

---

In the morning light
Half awake and half asleep
Have you ever laid there thinking
Was it all a dream ?
But you reach out and she's there
Every moment, everywhere
Have you ever been in love ?

Have you ever felt
How far a heart can fall
Have you ever stayed up waiting
For a telephone call
Just to hear her say hello
'Cause you miss each other so
Have you ever been in love ?

Have there been times to laugh
And times you really want to cry
Finding reasons to believe her
'Cause you'd die a little if she lied
And when in times of doubt
Have you ever tried to work it out
But still she leaves you wondering
What it's all about

And when she's far away
Have you ever felt the need to stray
And tried and then discovered
It just doesn't pay
'Cause with her, you can be true
And with her, you can be you
Have you ever been in love ?

Have there been times to laugh
And times you really want to cry
Finding reasons to believe her
'Cause you'd die a little if she lied
And when in times of doubt
Have you ever tried to work it out
But still she leaves you wondering
What it's all about

And when the night comes down
Can you call your house a home
Do you dream you're still together
And wake up alone
Have you ever been in love
The way that I'm in love
Have you ever been in love ?
