All I Want Is You (Lake/Sinfield) Sweep those blues outside the door You won't need them anymore I'm coming to you I must have been a fool before Now all I want All I want All I want is you So roll away your loneliness You have to send your last S.O.S. Turn you heart on put mind at rest 'cause all I want All I want All I want is you I'm on flight 1 1 2 The airports straight ahead Runway lights in blue and red Now the seatbelt sign's aglow I'm nearly home, nearly home So throw, throw those long sad books away Times and crimes of yesterday Tonight I'm gonna love you Till the break of day 'cause all I want All I want All I want is you

Love Beach (Lake/Sinfield) Now that the coast is clear, I'm moving out of here. It's time to disappear - with you,. To where the skies are blue. I want you by my side, Don't look so mystified. You know I said I'd Always take you to love beach. Out of reach of the eagles eyes tonight We can make it to love beach. Where pirate moons, throw silver spoons Across the waves to you. Back when it all began, I was your highway man. Now I've got a different plan For you. And me beside the deep blue sea The way it's meant to be. Oh you'll believe me When you see the ocean roll up And the sun turn a mighty red. You can walk love beach forever Till it lives inside your head... I said I want you by my side I'll keep you satisfied My love won't hide. We can make love on love beach Out of reach of the lion's claws tonight. We can make love on love beach I want your love, with the stars above Down on love beach. I'm gonna make love to you, on love beach Make all your dreams come true, on love beach Gonna make love to you, on love beach Gonna make your dreams come true, on love beach Gonna make love to you, on love beach...

Taste of my Love (Lake/Sinfield) Oh, you look so hungry, woman How come you strayed in here With your eyes so bright On this long hot night Could it be for a taste of my love Down on your knees With your face to the wall Saying please, please, please My friend said I should call Well, I do feel lonely, woman And to tell the truth I could use some company So come closer to me Help yourself to a taste of my love Call up room service Order peaches and cream I like my dessert first If you know what I mean Yeah, taste it, taste it, taste it Around the maze of pleasure To the gates of pain You're driving me insane Take all you need from the taste of my love I want to love you Like nobody ever loved you Get on my stallion And we'll ride I want to hold you And enfold you beyond reason I want to dynamite your mind With love tonight Go down gently With your face to the east The sun may be rising But we haven't finished the beast Ooh, you still look hungry, woman I'm glad your came in here With your eyes so bright On this long hot night Ooh, you need love, I need love Here it comes, the taste of my love I'm gonna love you Like nobody ever loved you Climb on my rocket And we'll fly Over the moon Past the sun 'til we find The gates of heaven Open wide for lovers I'm gonna love you Like nobody ever loved you Climb on my rocket And we'll fly

The Gambler (Emerson/Lake/Sinfield) Hey mister gimme back them dice You're holding all the green but you're gonna lose a slice Rock and roll bless my soul, my wallet's gettin' thinner Sevens up, thank you Lord, now you're looking at a winner Cos I'm a member of a gamblin' breed. And when the actions hot, it gets me all I need So if you find me in our town, won't you lay your money down? It's satisfaction guaranteed You get heaven, you'll get hell There ain't no way for you to tell with a gamblin' man Hey mama give me one more ace I'm looking at a knave and he's laughing in my face Raise the pot bet the lot we could all be dead tomorrow I got an edge on the ledge not another man will follow Cos I'm a member... I said I'm a gambler, there's no question of that But I never gamble on a woman, that's a matter of fact Just ain't no predictin', which way their love will roll One moment they're red hot - the next they're icy cold Oh Lord, have mercy, give what wheel a spin It's takin' candy from a baby in the mood I'm in Rock and roll bless my soul, my wallet's lookin' healthy Easy come, easy go, I never wanted to be wealthy Just a paid up member of a gamblin' breed And when the actions hot it gets me all I need So if you find me in your town won't you lay your money down? It's satisfaction guaranteed You get heaven, you'll get hell there ain't no way for you to tell With a gamblin' man Lay your money down

For You (Lake/Sinfield) For you and I There never was a way to say goodbye The nights of love We loved so hard we shook the stars above Ooh, such a love Expecting so much, as we touched That each the other led to the fire Was it the words left unspoken Scared for my heart, she's been broken That in the ice of a moment You closed the doors on our love Now for you and for me Lies branded on our hearts the memory Just a glance and a smile A looking back and knowing all the while Ooh, it was love As close as it'll ever come, it's not a crime For two lonely people to try To find some love in the madness Of this world full of sadness And though we woke in the ashes Just for a while we had dreamed I gave you all I could give It was for you that I lived Why did you do what you did And close the door of my heart Next time you fall in love You'd better tell the truth Next time you fall in love Don't do it just for you For you, for you, for you For you, for you, for you For you For you, for you, for you For you, for you, for you

Memoirs of an Officer and a Gentleman (Emerson/Sinfield) [Prologue/The Education of A Gentleman] Walking through the city after recent rain Heard ancient stones all shining murmur where are they? How long before next hero's day And the splendid show of drum and gun Walking by the river one September eve Saw questions rise in circles on that old dark stream Where now are those who dared to dream They would leave one jewel in England's hand Gone to sleep they lie in flowered graves For the visitors and Guidebook saved But come the trumpet shattered dawn Will the spirit they shared be reborn Comrades in arms, may they rise, fight and shine again, Till "who goes there", will be answered with friend again Once there stood a man, alone, sword in his hand In the face of the teeth and flame And it was all in England's name I was told how she grew, she alone shone her light on everyone And if you made the first eleven then you'd be sure to get to heaven, Like the captain of the school I was taught how to win And to lose with that "get you next time" smile, Learned Latin verbs in fear of a beating And for years thought central heating, Was for just old people's homes I was raised on the past, the Tower and Saint Paul's and Westminster Escorted well-bred girls to dances, and learned to drive a horse in harness, Through the English countryside I was taught to behave, like an officer and a gentleman, And when I finally marched from Sandhurst I learned to put my fellow man first And there was daily talk of war I spent 1938 in the United States of America, I grew to love it's many faces, and they had built some amazing places, And I thought they'd come in on our side [Love at First Sight] Girls, oh there were girls But they were just part of the social whirl And I never took much notice Until the night that I met you Standing out there alone Out on the terrace under the moon From the moment that I kissed you My life turned into a dream I knew I loved you at first sight And that you loved.. me Was it really happening, or was it a dream? I asked if you'd be mine Feeding the white doves by the Serpentine And when you said forever I know that I almost cried You all in white The tears and the laughing Nearly losing the damn ring Yes, I do... Yes, I will... keep you from harm Those few short days We spent together Remembered forever All the plans - for the house and for the children I know I loved you at first sight And that you loved... me Did it really happen then, or was it a dream? I knew when I saw your face Opening orders, the time and the place Oh, don't worry it won't last long And I won't be far away I'll try to write every day... [Letters From the Front] Got your letters at the front today If you like the house we'll buy it straight away Yes, it's great now you're a full-time nurse But do be careful with the air-raids - getting worse Must end now... the push is on... we're moving out... All my love... see you soon I'm writing to you on a convoy moving west It's hell out here but we're all trying to do our best I learned today that I get two weeks leave in June This time I promise you a real honeymoon Must end now... take care my love... you're all the world To me my love... see you soon The telegram... dropped from my hand She was all I had... I just don't understand I see her now... in that white dress she wore Those eyes and that smile No one else... nevermore Decorations and respect inside the club Aren't compensation when you lose the one you love But in the end, all that is left Is the regiment and what it means To be... an officer and a gentleman... [Honourable Company (A March)] Instrumental.
