Written by Roy Orbison, Tom Petty & Jeff Lynne
Thanks to Julia James for submitting the lyrics

Everytime I look into your lovely eyes, I see a love that money just can't buy
One look from you, I drift away
I pray that you are here to stay

Anything you want, You got it
Anything you need, You got it
Anything at all, You got it... Baby

Everytime I hold you, I begin to understand
Everything about you, Tells me I'm your best friend
I live my life, To be with you
No one can do the things you do

Anything you want, You got it
Anything you need, You got it
Anything at all, You got it... Baby

Anything you want, You got it
Anything you need, You got it
Anything at all, You got it

I'm glad to give, My love to you
I know you feel, The way I do

Anything you want, You got it
Anything you need, You got it
Anything at all, You got it... Baby

Anything you want, You got it
Anything you need, You got it
Anything at all, You got it... Baby

You got it


Boys On The Side soundtrack lyrics -- I Take You With Me .. Melissa Etheridge


Thanks to Julia James for submitting the lyrics
from "Boys On the Side" soundtrack

Past the devil's own temptation
Beyond where angels sleep
To the holy invocation
Of a neon city street
I feel your hand
I hold you
Through your eyes I see
My love, wherever I go
I take you with me

Down the road of my desires
To the oceans of my peace
Through the fueling of my fires
Until my yearnings cease
I hear your voice
I know you
In your arms I sleep
My love, wherever I go
I take you with me

Even though I've fed my hunger
Even though I've named my fear
I'll never understand it
How the journey led me here
But I have made a promise
That I intend to keep
My love, wherever you go
I take you with me


Boys On The Side soundtrack lyrics -- Keep On Growing .. Sheryl Crow


originally by Eric Clapton

I was laughing
Playing in the streets, I was unknowing
I didn't know my fate

Playing
The game of love, but never really showing
I thought that love could wait

I was a young girl and sure to go astray
You walked right into my life and told me love would find a way

To keep on growing, keep on growing
Keep on growing

I was standing
Looking in the face of one who loved me
Feeling so ashamed

Hoping
And praying, Lord, that he could understand me
But I didn't know his name He took my hand in his and told me I was wrong
He said, you're gonna be all right girl, oh just as long

As you keep on growing, keep on growing
Keep on growing, yeah, yeah, yeah

Maybe
Someday baby, who knows where or when, Lord
Just you wait and see

We'll be walking
Together hand in hand, alone forever
Man just you and me

'Cause time is gonna change us, Lord, and I know it's true
Our love is gonna keep on glowing and growing and it's all we gotta do

Keep on growing, keep on growing
Keep on growing, yeah, yeah, yeah
Keep on growing, keep on growing
Keep on growing


Boys On The Side soundtrack lyrics -- Power Of Two .. Indigo Girls


Words and Music: Emily Saliers

Now the parking lot is empty
Everyone's gone someplace
I pick you up and in the trunk I've packed
A cooler and a two-day suitcase
Cause there's a place we like to drive
Way out in the country
Five miles out of the city limit we're singing
And your hand's upon my knee

So we're okay, we're fine
Baby I'm here to stop your crying
Chase all the ghosts from your head
I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed
Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
We'll look at them together then we'll take them apart
Adding up the total of a love that's true
Multiply life by the power of two

You know the things I'm afraid of
I'm not afraid to tell
And if we ever leave a legacy
It's that we loved each other well
Cause I've seen the shadows of so many people
Trying on the treasures of youth
But a road that's fancy and fast ends in a fatal crash
And I'm glad we got off to tell you the truth

Cause we're okay, we're fine
Baby I'm here to stop your crying
Chase all the ghosts from your head
I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed
Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
We'll look at them together then we'll take them apart
Adding up the total of a love that's true
Multiply life by the power of two

Emily:
All the shiny little trinkets of temptation
Something new instead of something old
All you gotta do is scratch beneath the surface
And it's fool's gold
Fool's gold
Fool's gold
Amy:
Make new friends but
Keep the old
But remember
What is gold
What is gold
What is gold

Now we're talking bout a difficult thing
And your eyes are getting wet
I tookus for better and I took us for worse
Now don't you ever forget
Now the steel bars between me and a promise
Suddenly bend with ease
And the closer I'm bound in love to you
The closer I am to free

So we're okay, we're fine
Baby I'm here to stop your crying
Chase all the ghosts from your head
I'm stronger than a monster beneath your bed
I'm smarter than the tricks played on your heart
We'll look at them together then we'll take them apart
Adding up the totals of a love that's true
Multiply life by the power of two


Boys On The Side soundtrack lyrics -- Somebody Stand By Me .. Stevie Nicks


written by s. crow, t. wolf

I stood at the door
And watched while you drove away
Driving my car in the rain, in the dark
Well, every dog seems to have her day.

I've been in this, alone so long
And I'm begining to wonder why
I stand in one place a different name -- a different face
No one's gonna see me cry

I need someone to stand by me
Stand by me, just one time.
I hope somebody stands by me
Stands by me, just one time
I don't understand, it's slipping through these hands
I think by now I know when to let go
All I know is here I am baby
Won't you stand by me?

I'm not bending tonight
But I'm twisted and turned and broken down
But I'm starting to know the sound of something
No one and yet everything

Well if God is here tonight -- are you here tonight?
Maybe you could grab me up
Stand me on my feet give me strength
Set me free
I'm not giving in till I've had enough


Boys On The Side soundtrack lyrics -- Everyday Is Like Sunday .. Pretenders


Thanks to Julia James for submitting the lyrics

Trudging slowly over wet sand
back to the bench
where your clothes were stolen
this is the coastal town
that forgot to close down
Armageddon - come Armageddon !
Everyday is Like Sunday
everyday is silent and grey
Hide on the promenade
scratch out a postcard
"how I dearly wish I was not here"
In the seaside town
...they forgot to bomb !
Come! Come! Come - nuclear bomb !
Everyday is Like Sunday
everyday is silent and grey
Trudging back over pebbles and sand
and a strange dust lands on your hands
(And on your face)
Everyday is like Sunday
"Win yourself a Cheap Tray"
Share some greased tea with me
everyday is silent and grey


Boys On The Side soundtrack lyrics -- Dreams .. The Cranberries


Oh, my life is changing everyday,

In every possible way.
And oh, my dreams, it's never quiet as it seems,
Never quiet as it seems.

I know I've felt like this before, but now I'm feeling it even more,
Because it came from you.
And then I open up and see the person falling here is me,
A different way to be.

Ah, la da ah...
La...

I want more imposible to ignore,
Imposible to ignore.
And they'll come true, impossible not to do,
Impossible not to do.

And now I tell you openly, you have my heart so don't hurt me.
You're what I couldn't find.
A totally amazing mind, so understanding and so kind;
You're everything to me.

Oh, my life,
Is changing every day,
In every possible way.

And oh, my dreams,
It's never quiet as it seems,
'Cause you're a dream to me,
Dream to me.

Ah, da, da da da, da, la...


Boys On The Side soundtrack lyrics -- Why .. Annie Lennox


Thanks to Julia James for submitting the lyrics

How many times do I have to try to tell you
That I'm sorry for the things I've done
But when I start to try to tell you
That's when you have to tell me
Hey... this kind of trouble's only just begun
I tell myself too many times
Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut
That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words
That keep on falling from your mouth
Falling from your mouth
Falling from your mouth
Tell me...
Why
Why

I may be mad
I may be blind
I may be viciously unkind
But I can still read what you're thinking
And I've heard is said too many times
That you'd be better off
Besides...
Why can't you see this boat is sinking
(this boat is sinking this boat is sinking)
Let's go down to the water's edge
And we can cast away those doubts
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me inside out
Turning inside out turning inside out
Tell me...
Why
Tell me...
Why

This is the book I never read
These are the words I never said
This is the path I'll never tread
These are the dreams I'll dream instead
This is the joy that's seldom spread
These are the tears...
The tears we shed
This is the fear
This is the dread
These are the contents of my head
And these are the years that we have spent
And this is what they represent
And this is how I feel
Do you know how I feel?
'cause i don't think you know how I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
You don't know what I feel


Boys On The Side soundtrack lyrics -- Ol' 55 .. Sarah McLachlan


My time went so quickly
I went lickety-splickly
out to my old '55
Pulled away slowly
feeling so holy
God knows, I was feeling alive.

And now the sun's coming up
I'm riding with Lady Luck
freeway cars and trucks
Stars beginning to fade
and I lead the parade
Just a-wishing I'd stayed a little longer
Oh, Lord, that the feeling's getting stronger.

Now six in the morning
gave me no warning
I had to be on my way.
Lights passing and trucks a flashing
I'm on my way home from your place.

And now the sun's coming up
I'm riding with Lady Luck
freeway cars and trucks
Stars beginning to fade
and I lead the parade
Just a-wishing I'd stayed a little longer
Oh, Lord, that the feeling's getting stronger.


Boys On The Side soundtrack lyrics -- Willow .. Joan Armatrading


Thanks to Julia James for submitting the lyrics

I may not be your best
But you know good ones
Don't come by the score
If you've got something missing
I'll help you look
You can be sure

And if you want to be alone
Or someone to share a laugh
Whatever you want to do
All you got to do is ask

Thunder
Don't go under the sheets
Lightning
Under a tree
In the rain and snow
I'll be your fireside
Come running to me
When things get out of hand
Running to me
When it's more than you can stand

I said I'm strong
Straight
Willing
To be a shelter
In a storm
Your willow
Oh willow
When the sun is out

A fight with your best girl
Prettiest thing you ever saw
You know I'll listen
Try to get a message to her

And if it's money you want
Or trouble halved
Whatever you want me to do
All you got to do is ask

I said I'm strong
Straight
Willing
To be a shelter
In a storm
Your willow
Oh willow
When the sun is out


Boys On The Side soundtrack lyrics -- Crossroads .. Jonell Mosser


I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees.
I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees.
Asked the lord above for mercy, save me if you please.

I went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride.
I went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride.
Nobody seemed to know me, everybody passed me by.

Im going down to rosedale, take my rider by my side.
Im going down to rosedale, take my rider by my side.
You can still barrelhouse, baby, on the riverside.

You can run, you can run, tell my friend-boy willie brown.
You can run, you can run, tell my friend-boy willie brown.
And Im standing at the crossroads, believe Im sinking down.


Boys On The Side soundtrack lyrics -- You Got It .. Whoopi Goldberg

Music and lyrics by J. Lynne, R. Orbison, T. Petty

Every time I look
Into your lovely eyes
I see a love that money
Just can't buy

One look from you
I drift away
I pray that you
Are here to stay

CHORUS:
Anything you want
You got it
Anything you need
you got it
Anything at all
you got it
Baby

Every time I hold you
I begin to understand
Everything about you
Tells me [I'm your best friend] [Whoopi's version]

I live my life
To be with You
No one can do
The things you do

CHORUS

I'm glad to give
My love to you
I know you feel
The way I do

CHORUS
