• Title: His way of loving me
• Album: A part of me
• Year: 1989

Lyrics:

Why do you look at me as if you never saw
Someone who's been hurt this way before?
Isn't unusual it happens to more than one
'Got to learn to take it as it comes

He doesn't mean it though he does it every time
He hits when he can't find the words
Must be his background it happened to him that way
Says his hurting a lot more than me



(Chorus)
When the storm has blown over
The bruising's begun
He physically proves to me I'm his "only one"
I'm left wondering - am I wrong
To keep on believing that we belong?
My bones are aching, the tears still flow,
A voice keeps telling me I ought to know
It's just his way of loving me... His way...
Don't try to tell me I will lose my mind
If I live with a man like him
Do you know him, do you ever see him cry like I do?
I never dreamed love could be like war,
Turn to blows when we can't have our way
Is the reason - human nature?
Does he really hurt more than me?

(Chorus)

"At the end of a lifetime you've made your mistake
You've taken even more than you were able to take
The love in his eyes out of range
And you realise, 'too late to change'
Your bones are aching again and again"...

I've got to find a way to believe my pain
Woh, I say it's his way of loving me
His way of loving me

• Title: Was it a dream
• Album: A part of me
• Year: 1989

Lyrics:

Picture the scene, another cafe
Five minutes late, you walk my way
A rendez-vous, another bore
Turned out to be a whole lot more

We got to talking 'bout our views and ideals
About love and hate and what each other feels
You held my hand, I pulled away,
But something in the air
Something made me stay

(Chorus)

Say it wasn't a dream
Say the moment was real
Tell me you didn't lie
When you said how you feel
I've been feeding an illusion, afraid of my life,
But now, I wanna open my eyes
But I need to be sure you're more than a dream
You told me story I wanted to hear
Played me a song, made your feelings clear
Side by side at the dead of night
You drew me close and it felt so right

I can't explain the warmth in my heart
Nothing on this earth could tear us apart
I'm so confused by the way things are
Is it all for real, are we gonna go far?

(Chorus)

The night is over but I linger on
Don't want to live, don't wanna move on
I feel complete
I feel secure
Within your arms I feel so sure
Don't leave me now I know what love is
Don't leave me now I need your kiss
I'll let you in
I'll give you the key
If you'll only say, say you'll stay with me

(Chorus)

• Title: No reason no rhyme
• Album: A part of me
• Year: 1989

Lyrics:

Time, no reason, no rhyme...
I wonder why I wonder at all
Is it just a means to pass the time?
Is there any justice here for the small,
Why is it that some men turn to crime?
Where is the reason, where's the rhyme...?

Your father wants you to be what he couldn't be
Saying "back in my days we had no choice"
Mother wants you to be just happy
Saying "love the girls but only marry the boys"!
Where is the reason, where's the choice?


(Chorus)

Does anybody really know what life is hiding at the core
How can we be so sure we really die
'Coz we just don't breathe no more?
The rules and regulations are there to be obeyed
Or do you prefer to pay the time?
Never leave the shop till you're sure that you've paid
Something harmless could turn out a crime
Where is the reason, where's the rhyme...?

Time, no reason, no rhyme...
I wonder why I wonder at all
Is it just a means to pass the time?
Is there any justice here for the small,
Why is it that some men turn to crime?
Where is the reason, where's the rhyme...?

(Chorus) x 2

Should I be here where I am is it my destiny?
And after I've done what I can will I no longer be?

• Title: I need to know
• Album: A part of me
• Year: 1989

Lyrics:

(En duo avec Jean-Jacques Goldman)

Do you really think it's fair
Telling me now you won't be there
Knowing every time you asked me
I never refused you
No I never refused
Am I wrong or do you care
For the moments that we share?
There were times you made me feel
I was being used
Am I being used?

(Bridge)

You know your life is yours to command
Your destiny's in your hand
Go out and do what you're born to do
Oh you've got to be true, got to be, be true to you
To be true, you've got to be true to me
To be true, you've got to be true to you

(Chorus)

So if you want to go (you go)
You know I won't say no (no, no)
Oh I love you so and I need to know
Will our love, will our love still grow?
We had a real good time (just you and me)
Loving like a crime (will you miss me?)
I know you can't be mine, but I need to know
Will our love, will our love still grow?

If you need some good advice
Call on me don't think twice
I didn't make it obvious
Deep down I cared, deep down I care
If you ever do decide
You want to be by my side
I will be more than happy to
Take you in my arms
I want you in my arms

(Bridge)

(Chorus)

We had real good time (you're breaking my heart)
Loving like a crime (now we're living apart)
I know you can't be mine, but I need to know
Will our love, will our love still grow?

(Chorus)

Will our love, will our love, will our love grow?
Will our love, will our love, will our love grow?
Tell me will our love still grow?
