Lionel Richie - Wasted Time Lyrics

Lionel Richie - Wasted Time Video

I Used to think that we've come too far to give up now
Now I see that you're really not the one for me
I constantly try to show my love,do everything
But now I think if I voice my love how wrong could it be
 
I never knew it before, I always thought I'd be sure
I plan to be with only you forever
But how can we just go on
Now that I know it's so wrong
We can't spend another day together
 
You should go, I no longer feel like wasting time
With you, goodbye, cause I don't need you with me
It's time you know, that all the things we had that felt so good
Were wasted time, and it's all because of you
 
I was blind, couldn't see the writing on the wall
In my mind, you were the only one to be with me
I can't believe, that it took so long to figure out
The games you play, now the truth is clear I have no doubt
 
I never knew it before, I always thought I was sure
I plan to be with only you forever
But how can we just go on
Now that I know it's so wrong
We can't spend another night together
 
You should go, I no longer feel like wasting time
With you, goodbye cause I don't need you in my life
It's time you know, that all the things we had that felt so good
Were wasted time, and I won't waste my time with you no more
You should go, I don't wanna feel like wasting time
With you, goodbye, you can leave, you can leave
It's time you know, that all the things we had that felt so good
Were wasted time, and I never knew
 
I never knew it before, I always thought I was sure
I plan to be with only you forever
But how can we just go on
Not when I know it's so wrong
We can't spend another night together
 
You should go, I no longer feel like wasting time
With you, goodbye
It's time you know, that all the things we had that felt so good
Were wasted time
Everything I tried to do, but it did not work
You should go, I no longer feel like wasting time
With you, goodbye
It's time you know, that all the things we had that felt so good
Were wasted time

Lionel Richie - Can't Slow Down Lyrics

Lionel Richie - Can't Slow Down Video

I know what's on your mind.
You feel you're wasting time.
Wanna talk about it?
You feel there's something wrong.
Don't feel like holding on.
You better think about it.
You say you jest can't see.
Don't lay that hurt on me.
What I'm trying baby.
Got something on my mind.
Something I've got to find.
I'm on the move baby.

Got to keep movin' baby (can't slow down)
No I (can't slow down)
Oh (can't slow down)
Got to keep movin' on, oh baby.
 
I'm out here on the run.
Trying to get things done.
Can you hear me baby?
You think my love's nowhere.
You think I just don't care.
Are you kidding baby?
Don't make me play no games.
Too hard to just stay sane.
You know that time won't wait
Why should I hesitate.
Got to do it baby.
 
You see I (can't slow down)
Got to keep movin' baby (can't slow down)
No I (can't slow down)
Oh (can't slow down)
Got to keep movin' on, oh baby.

You know I've got to right now.

I've got to make it somhow...
Ah, (I got to keep movin', I can't stop movin')

Lionel Richie - Running With The Night Lyrics

Lionel Richie - Running With The Night Video

The heart of the city street was beating
Light from the neons turned the dark to day
We were too hot to think of sleeping
We had to get out before the magic got away
 
We were running with the night
Playing in the shadows
Just you and I till the morning light
(We were running) Whoa
(Running with the night)
 
You were looking so good, girl, heads were turning
You and me on the town, ooh, we let it all hang out
The fire was in us, we were burning
We were gonna go all the way and we never had a doubt
 
We were running with the night
Playing in the shadows
Just you and I till the morning light
(We were running) Whoa
(Running with the night)
 
We were so in love, you and me
On the boulevard, wild and free
Giving all we got, we laid it down
Taking every shot, we took the town
 
We were running with the night
Playing in the shadows
Just you and I, girl, it was so right, so right
(Running with the night)
 
Just you and I
We were running with the night
Playing in the shadows
Just you and I, girl, it was so right
(Running with the night)
Girl it was so right
(So right) So right

Lionel Richie - Sela Lyrics

Lionel Richie - Sela Video

You know sometimes I sit and wonder
Just how this world would be
If we had all the people laughing
And everybody living in harmony
We'd have to say sela sela
Talking to the people sela, sela
 
There would be no more living in desperation
And no more hatred and deceit
Tell me, can you imagine
All the children playing
And everyone dancing in the street
We say sela, sela
Talking to yourself sela, sela
 
You play it for the people
Yeah, for the people
It's time for everyone
To come together
I know it's hard
But this dream must come to light on
Because tonight should be
One big celebration
I'm talking to you now
Only we can make things right
 
We say sela, sela, sela, sela baby
Talk about, sing about, talk about sela
Talk about sela
Oh the children
Tell me about the children
We've got to help them now to survive
Well, one world
One heart is our salvation
Let us keep the dream alive
 
We say sela, sela, sela
I know sela, I know sela, sela, sela ...

Lionel Richie - Angel Lyrics

Lionel Richie - Angel Video

I just want to tell you all the things you are
And all the things you mean to me
When I find myself in need and there's no place to go
When I feel the loneliness inside my heart
 
You're the answer to my prayers
And you're with me everywhere
You're my angel

You're all I need tonight
Give me shelter from the rain
You breathe life in me again
You're my angel

Life is just a moment
We're blowing in the wind
We're trying to find a friend
And only time can tell us
If win or if we lose
And who will stand beside us
 
When there's darkness all around me
You're the light I see
When I need someone to ease my troubled mind
 
You're the answer to my prayers
And you're with me everywhere
You're my angel

You're all I need tonight
Give me shelter from the rain
You breathe life in me again

Baby you'll find
There's only one love
Yours and mine
I've got so much love

Lionel Richie - Don't You Ever Go Away Lyrics

Lionel Richie - Don't You Ever Go Away Video

Hey, can you tell my heart is aching
You, It's only you that's on my mind
I, I can not fight this feeling
Now, now I know why love is blind
 
From the top of my world to the bottom of my heart
Just the way that you are, you're the one my shining star
Everything that you do, everything that you might say
You're the love of my life, don't you ever go away
 
Love, I feel my heart could beat forever
Kiss, when it's slow with tenderness
Touch, when we're making love it's heaven
Time, girl with you, there's only bliss
 
From the top of my world to the bottom of my heart
Just the way that you are, you're the one my shining star
Everything that you do, everything that you might say
You're the love of my life, don't you ever go away
Don't you ever go away
 
You are everything I wanted
And I would love to love you girl
To the end of time
 
From the top of my world to the bottom of my heart
Just the way that you are, you're the one my shining star
Everything that you do, everything that you might say
You're the love of my life, don't you ever go away

Lionel Richie - Deep River Woman Lyrics

Lionel Richie - Deep River Woman Video

Deep river woman
Lord I'm coming home to you
Deep river woman
Lord I know she's waiting
Just anticipating all my love
 
I spent a night
Just another chance to see you
Just you and i
Wanted you to know
That my playing days are over
Cause all I do is think of you
The writing's on the wall
 
I've been out in the world
Yes, the fast life had me going
 
Now all that's changed
I finally make up my mind
About the one thing
I've been knowing
You're the only girl
I've ever crying for in this world
 
You kind of love is forever
It took me a long time to realize
That I've come so far
And end up going nowhere
Oh, girl, I need you by my side

Let me tell you now
All that's on my mind.
For a love like yours.

I've looked inside myself.
Now I'm very sure.

You, turned me inside out and you showed me.
What life was about.
Only you, the only one that stole my heart away.
I wanna do all I can, just to show you.
Make you understand.
Only you, the only one that stole my heart away.
 
When you're in my arms.
When I'm close to you.
There's a magic in your touch.
That just comes shining through.
Want you everyday.
Want you every night.

You make it seem so right.
Oh, girl, cause.....

The first time I saw you
Oh you looked so fine
And I had a feeling
One day you'd be mine
 
Honey you came along and captured my heart
Now my love is somewhere lost in your kiss

Lionel Richie - Ordinary Girl Lyrics

Lionel Richie - Ordinary Girl Video

How will I know if someone loves me
How will I know if there is no one else
Dying to have someone who loves me
But I want them to love me for myself
Looked for love in all the wrong places
I searched the moon and stars
Found myself lost in a world full of faces
The place I didn't look was my heart
 
I've been all around the world try to find something new,
Lord knows that something was you
'Cause I found in myself the one thing that is true
All I want is an ordinary girl
All I need is an ordinary girl
 
Chorus: Ordinary (2x)
 
All I want is someone I can talk to
Someone I can lean on now and then
And I don't wanna lie, pretend I am someone else
I am just looking for a friend
My heart was going through so many changes,
I didn't know which way to turn
Just when I thought I had all of the answers
I found I still had so much to learn
 
I've been all around the world try to find something new,
Lord knows that something was you
'Cause I found in myself the one thing that is true
All I want is an ordinary girl
All I need is an ordinary girl
 
Chorus: Ordinary
 
Someone to love me
 
Chorus: Ordinary
 
I just wanna feel lost in love forever
Wanna see that look in your eyes
I hope that you understand what I am saying, baby
Cause girl I need you right by my side
 
I've been all around the world trying to find something new,
Lord knows that something was you
'Cause I found in myself
The one thing that is true
All I want is an ordinary girl
All I need is an ordinary girl
 
Chorus: Ordinary
 
Someone to love me
 
Chorus: Ordinary
 
Talking: You know I've been all around the world
Trying to find someone new
He, you know what ended up my search:
That someone was you
And I found in my heart there can be no one but you
 
All I need is an ordinary girl
Your love, my love
You know heaven send you from above
Oh girl, it is only you
You are the best thing in my life girl
You are the best thing in my life ooooooooh
Ooh girl...

Lionel Richie - Love Will Conquer All Lyrics

Lionel Richie - Love Will Conquer All Video

Here we are
Out here, me and you
Reaching out to each other
Is all that we can do
 
Here we stand
Trying not to fall
There's no need to worry
Love will conquer all
 
Do you really want to know
Just how long will last
Will all of the bad times pass?
How can we make things right?
 
Ooh and why
Why is the world so unkind?
We surely can find peace of mind
If we only see the light
 
Can't we see that
Here we are
Out here, me and you
Reaching out to each other
Is all that we can do
 
Whoa, here we stand
Trying not to fall
Oh, there's no need to worry
Love will conquer all
 
Can somebody tell me why?
Why do our dreams go wrong?
Why can't we all belong?
Ooh, where did we start?
 
Oh, and tell me when
When will we ever learn
There's nowhere else we can turn
The truth is in our hearts
 
Here we are together
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Whoa, whoa, whoa
 
Sometimes the road
Gets hard to travel
Sometimes the pain's
Too much to bear
 
Sometimes when life
Seems to unravel
That's the time, oh, to say
We're gonna make it anyway
 
Can't we see that
Here we are
Out here, me and you
Reaching out to each other
Is all, is all that we can do
 
Here we stand
Trying not to fall
There's no need to worry
Love will conquer all

Lionel Richie - Nothing Else Matters Lyrics

Lionel Richie - Nothing Else Matters Video

Do I love you?
Let me tell ya,
My Mona Lisa with a smile,
Knowing all that we've been through,
Together,
We've lasted for a while.
Hasn't it been so easy?
But life can be that way,
You made all the mountains,
Seem so small.
'Cause when there's love,
True love,
Nothing else matters,
At all.
Those precious moments,
Are filled with so much tears and laughter;
Funny how the time does fly.
Was it all a plan,
Or some passing chances?
I won't ask the reason why.
If I say I love you,
Let me tell you like it is,
Love you till the stars stars,
All start to fall.
'Cause when there's love,
True love,
Nothing else matters,
At all.
When I say I love you,
Let me tell you like it is,
Love you till the stars,
All start to fall.
Yes when there is love,
True love.
Yes when there is love,
True love.
Yes when there is love, true love;
Nothing else matters,
Nothing else matters,
Nothing else matters,
At all......

Lionel Richie - Cinderella Lyrics

Lionel Richie - Cinderella Video

As I was walking down a path in the woods one day
I came across a vision that caught my eye
 
There was a lady standing right there beside a well
And I heard her whisper
What you wish for you can have
 
Then the vision went away
I thought that I had lost her
The girl I had been waiting for
I can't believe I just saw her
She is the finest thing, I ever could imagine
Now I want her next to me, cause I want, cause I want more
Whoahhhh
 
Come to me my Cinderella
Straight to my wishing well and
You're the one I'll always cherish
I ya ya ya ya ya
Come to me my Cinderella
Straight to my wishing well and
You're the one I'll love forever
I ya ya ya ya ya
 
She is a gentle flower, she is the sun and rain and
She could be the reason for my joy and my pain
The first thing I see each morning, the last thing I see at night
You know if I could have all that
That's all I wish for in my life
 
Why did she have to go
What do I say to find her
This girl is the only one
I just cannot deny her
She's making love to my mind
And I can't forget this feeling
It's her voice that's calling
It's her voice I need
Whoahhh
 
Come to my my Cinderella
Straight to my wishing well and
You're the one I'll always cherish
I ya ya ya ya ya
Come to my my Cinderella
Straight to my wishing well
You're the one I'll love forever
I ya ya ya ya ya
 
Ohhh Cinderella
Ohhh Cinderella
Ohhh Cinderella
You're all that I want
You're all that I need
Come back to me now
Cinderella
 
Come to me my Cinderella
Straight to my wishing well and
You're the one I'll always cherish
I ya ya ya ya ya
Come to me my Cinderella
Straight to my wishing well
You're the one I'll love forever
I ya ya ya ya ya
