I tried pretending about how I felt towards
you girl
But I realize now I can’t keep on lying
to myself
As I’ve got to swallow this pill
Which says to me
I’m still in your power.
Chorus
For a long time now I’ve been trying out this verse
Wondering how I can say I love you
And that I always will, even “for better or worse”
As I’m kind a glad I’m still in your power.
The other day I even tried out someone new
But this came to nothing as I soon knew
That I’d rather have this bout with you
As I’m fully aware
I’m still in your power.
My songs just seem to be getting worse and worse
Because I realize I don’t need them as I’ve got you
And without you I’d probably end up in a hearse
Because I know
I’m still in your power
Repeat chorus
What’s this power you hold over me
I’m kind of hoping its love
Because my hearts real precious see
And now I’m thanking the one above
That I’m still in your power
Repeat “In your power is where I want to stay”

Head over Heels
Today you kissed me once again
But then you did something real bad
And it makes me believe you’re playing with me
And this thought makes me quite sad
Because I’ve fallen head over heels in love with you.
Why do you play with me,
And think of me as just another boy
With whose feelings you can play as if it were a toy
But, I’m different you see
Because I don’t like being treated like dirt
And this is what is really making my heart hurt
Because I’ve fallen head over heels in love with you.
I keep telling you about how I feel
But I don’t think you believe everything I say
And if you don’t stop playing with me
We’ll be forced to part one day
Even though I’ve fallen head over heels in love with you.
Next time we kiss as we did today
Just promise you won’t do it again
And I’ll promise to make sure you get home, early, as this is not just a simple game
Because I’ve fallen head over heels in love with you.
But then you did something real bad
And it makes me believe you’re playing with me
And this thought makes me quite sad
Because I’ve fallen head over heels in love with you.
Why do you play with me,
And think of me as just another boy
With whose feelings you can play as if it were a toy
But, I’m different you see
Because I don’t like being treated like dirt
And this is what is really making my heart hurt
Because I’ve fallen head over heels in love with you.
I keep telling you about how I feel
But I don’t think you believe everything I say
And if you don’t stop playing with me
We’ll be forced to part one day
Even though I’ve fallen head over heels in love with you.
Next time we kiss as we did today
Just promise you won’t do it again
And I’ll promise to make sure you get home, early, as this is not just a simple game
Because I’ve fallen head over heels in love with you.
Heart – thief
This verse may not rhyme
But maybe in time
You’ll understand what I’m trying to say
Because the truth is I don’t want Janey, Felicity
or Dianne
As I want you, the one who makes me feel
like such a man.
But you still believe what others say about me,
even though most of it is lies,
and if you really don’t believe me, watch me
close and look in my eyes
while I tell you,
You’re the one whose stolen my heart!
Heart-thief, why did I meet you now, after I promised myself that for love I’d wait,
But now I’ve suddenly up and realized
I’m far too late,
As you’ve already stolen my heart!
I’ve known many girls, some named, Yvonne, Janice and Elaine
But they think I’m going quite insane,
Because I left them all for you.
I’ve written you a couple of letters, and
meant everything from within my heart
But now its seems you are willing with me
to part
But, no matter with how many girls I’ll go out
with my years
I’ll always prefer (and wish) it was you so
I could draw you near,
Because you’re the one whose stolen my heart!
But maybe in time
You’ll understand what I’m trying to say
Because the truth is I don’t want Janey, Felicity
or Dianne
As I want you, the one who makes me feel

even though most of it is lies,
and if you really don’t believe me, watch me

Why do you like a guy like me?
A friend of yours told me that you like me
But I want to hear it from you personally!
I’m actually a very shy guy
And that’s why I keep asking myself, why?
Why do you like a guy like me?
Chorus
I’ve watched you many times with admiring eyes
So tell me now, without any lies,
Why, Please tell me, why, do you like a guy like me?
I’ve seen you with a couple of other boys
And I’m sure you did not think of them as toys
You see, I’m a kind of doubting Louw
And for this reason I’ve just got to know,
Why do you like a guy like me?
I now wish I had a car
So I could take you and ride out far
And there I’ll perform once more this task
Because I’m just wanting to ask,
Why do you like a guy like me?
Repeat chorus
But I want to hear it from you personally!
I’m actually a very shy guy
And that’s why I keep asking myself, why?
Why do you like a guy like me?

Why, Please tell me, why, do you like a guy like me?

You see, I’m a kind of doubting Louw
And for this reason I’ve just got to know,

I now wish I had a car
So I could take you and ride out far
And there I’ll perform once more this task

Repeat chorus
Song on my Radio
Today a song played on my Radio
And as it began to play, I lost myself in loving
memories
As the words seemed to touch my soul
Because my heart they seemed to tease,
And the suddenly I realized
To me, You Are The Greatest Love of All!
Chorus
I know my song will never be as good as Whitney’s
But I’m sure my message you’ll understand
And maybe one day, when I begin my own band
You’ll hear my song on your radio!
My ears are once more tuned
To the song playing so sweet
And, then, I know that if I lose you
My heart will cease to beat,
So move closer now
And together we’ll produce a band new beat!
And now as it plays to an end
My heart seems to turn to lead
As I’m forced to think
About all those really mean things I said
And so with this melody I write
I really mean to say “I’m sorry!”
And that, I still love you!
Repeat Chorus
No matter what I seem to do
I’m continually reminded of you
Which definitely proves, I only love you!
And as it began to play, I lost myself in loving
memories
As the words seemed to touch my soul
Because my heart they seemed to tease,
And the suddenly I realized
To me, You Are The Greatest Love of All!
Chorus
I know my song will never be as good as Whitney’s
But I’m sure my message you’ll understand
And maybe one day, when I begin my own band
You’ll hear my song on your radio!
My ears are once more tuned
To the song playing so sweet
And, then, I know that if I lose you
My heart will cease to beat,
So move closer now
And together we’ll produce a band new beat!
And now as it plays to an end
My heart seems to turn to lead
As I’m forced to think
About all those really mean things I said
And so with this melody I write
I really mean to say “I’m sorry!”
And that, I still love you!
Repeat Chorus
No matter what I seem to do
I’m continually reminded of you
Which definitely proves, I only love you!
