Lyrics-Wayne W. Johnson
Music-Wayne W. Johnson, Mike Merrifield
You say tonight’s the night you want me on out of your life
“I just can’t take no more so now you have to go”
You want no delays you want me on out today
“Why can’t you hurry up-I feel so yesterday”
You wanna say goodbye but girl I gotta know why
“I thought we had a love-a love that was so true”
But you keep tellin’ me-sellin that same old line
“The party’s over babe-it’s time to say goodbye”
cause
You know-our love is wasted
I know-you know it’s true
The love-our hearts once tasted
Is gone-so long
Girl I keep tellin you you gotta give me some time
“You just don’t understand that we could start anew”
No matter what I try you’re tellin me it’s a lie
“Why can’t you be a man & leave our love to die!”

Music-Wayne W. Johnson, Mike Merrifield
There was a time when I would wait for lovin’
But that time is over-make your mind
I need to find out, if you wanna go out
Or if it’s all over-make your mind
It’s not hard to do
Whatcha gonna do
Just
Love me or leave me
Whatcha gonna do now baby
Love me or leave me
C’mon girl make up your mind
Love me or leave me
C’mon girl you’re drivin’ me crazy
Love me or leave me
Make your mind
Love me or leave me
Girl don’tcha deceive me
I wish you would tell me-make your mind
I’m thru with your games
Cause my heart is in flames
I wish you would tell me
Make your mind
DENY

Lyrics-Wayne W. Johnson
Music-Wayne W. Johnson
I was standing there, you were walking by
I could tell girl from that gleam in your eye
I can tell you girl things you are to me
And I can tell you girl you’re my fantasy
Cause when your body moves I get these feelings
I can’t deny
When you’re body moves I get these feelings
I can’t deny
So I don’t try
I can feel you girl deep inside of me
All my thought of you burn in ecstasy
I could tell you girl we could reminisce
But all I want right now is just one little kiss
PAIN

Lyrics-Wayne W. Johnson
Music-Wayne W. Johnson
I feel it deep inside, inside my head
And when it hits me, I’m better off dead
Grinds me in a hole, drives me insane
Why is this happening?
Why do I have to go thru so much
Pain (x3)
Why do I have to go thru so much
Pain (x3)
Why do I have to go thru so much
It’s slowly creeping, across my mind
A burning ecstasy, no other kind
It takes my brain right down the fuckin’ drain
Why is this happening?
Why do I have to go thru so much
It comes upon me, wave after wave
I was the master, now I’m the slave
Although I beg & plead, no mercy gained
It never ends for me
Why do I have to go thru so much
STAY

Lyrics-Wayne W. Johnson
Music-Wayne W. Johnson
When I see you smile
I’m burnin inside
Yet feelings of love
Too real to deny
When I hear your name
It’s drives me insane
Just go away
Tell me you’ll stay
Life is a dream
Waiting for you
Lost in your eyes
Will we be true
Feelings are blind
When you’re on my mind
Just go away
Tell me you’ll stay
OUT OF MY LIFE ( I WANT YOU )

Year Written-2001
Lyrics-Wayne W. Johnson
Music-Wayne W. Johnson, Mike Merrifield
You say “I love you”
You told me, that you’d be true
But I see with brand new eyes
When you fucked another guy
So
I want you (x3)
Out of my life!
You say the truth you cry
Yet your words become a lie
In your mind it’s not the same
Yet there’s no one else to blame
No time for subtle goodbyes
Why don’t you fuck off & die
You say “I love you”
“I’m just not in love with you”
I’m so tired of all the lies
There’s no prize for long goodbyes
I’VE SEEN THE LIGHT TONIGHT

Lyrics-Wayne W. Johnson
Music-Wayne W. Johnson
Today was just another day in every way
Another story that just went the same old way
I’ve seen you everyday, time & time again
Now I see you and it’s more than just a friend
I’ve seen the light tonight
Flashes before my eyes
Don’t ask for reasons why
I’ve seen the light tonight
I don’t know why I never noticed you before girl
But love has got me and I’m comin’ back for more-yeah!
I’ve got these feelings, like no other kind
I’ve got a feelin’ that someday you will be mine all mine
All mine
WON’T BE HOME TONIGHT

Lyrics-Wayne W. Johnson
Music-Wayne W. Johnson
You say you have to go
A friend in need you know
Just there to make her feel alright
You say you won’t be long
I’ve heard that same old song
I know you won’t be home tonight
So I sit there all alone
Gnaw fingers to the bone
As time moves slowly thru the night
My mind says “you’re not fair”
My heart cries “I don’t care”
I know you won’t be home tonight
And now it’s half past two
Still wonderin’ what to do
Don’t know if what I feel is right
So I call your friend in pain
The story’s not the same
Now I know you won’t be home tonight
I know you won’t be home tonight
FAR AWAY FROM HOME

Lyrics-Wayne W. Johnson
Music-Wayne W. Johnson
There’s a young girl by the road
So tired and all alone
Her light is fadin’, it’s gettin’ cold
She’s so far away from home
So far away from home
So far away
Thinkin’ back to another day
When she had her dreams
Saved her money and ran away
Easy as it seems
Took a plane to the promise land
To become a star
But building castles that are made of sand
Won’t take you very far
No, no
Met a man from the neighborhood
He’d take her all the way
For awhile everything seemed good
Till she had to pay
Now she’s out on the city streets
Running all the way
Praying that she’ll find a little peace
To take her far away
They found her body in the morning rain
No one seemed to care
Just another little runaway
From who knows where
And just a little ways down the road
There’s a girl, all alone
Her light is fadin’, it’s gettin’ cold
She’s so far away from home
So far away from home
So far away
DEAD OR ALIVE

Lyrics-Wayne W. Johnson
Music-Wayne W. Johnson
I’ve got these feelings that I just can’t hide
I gotta show it
And before another day is thru
You’re gonna know it
Always thinkin’ that I’m in disguise
You never see it
Do you think I’m just another guy
Don’t you believe it
No where to run or to hide
You’re gonna be by my side
Dead or alive
I always see you with some other guy
I can’t believe it
Baby why you playin’ hard to get
Can’t you feel it
INSIDE

Lyrics-Wayne W. Johnson
Music-Wayne W. Johnson
You say it’s over
Our day is due
My flames have died and it’s time
To start anew
You say you’re empty
Our love’s a lie
You say to stay away but to play hey
What’s inside
I think about you all the time
Still you’re leaving me
I think about you everyday,every night
Till the morning light
I know there’s something inside
I know there’s something inside you
I see your fire
I feel your soul
I know that both are burning
Out of all control
Unseen behavior
Unreal design
I know you’ve got to go
But I don’t know what’s inside
NOTHING WILL SATISFY YOU

Lyrics-Wayne W. Johnson
Music-Roy Coston, Mike Merrifield, Wayne W. Johnson
I treat you very nice
Your heart’s as cold as ice
Love is like rolling dice
I try to do my best
You treat me like the rest
My patience put to test
Everything that I do
You say is wrong for you
Nothing is ever true
Everything that I say
You take and throw away
Why bother anyway
Gave you all that I had
Yet you still treat me bad
Got me down on my knees
Such a tease
Cause nothing will satisfy you
Tell me what’s on your mind
Give me the same old line
Feelings ain’t worth a dime
Give me an attitude
Settin’ the tone, the mood
Love has become unglued
