Women of a certain age They learn to rely, and judge all his responses Having played the mating game She doesn’t waste time ‘cause all that she wants is Really honest emotions Ones he can’t help but show Though I hardly know your name I know about love and I know I don’t wanna lose you I don’t even wanna say goodbye, oh, no I just wanna hold on To this true love, true love Women who have made mistakes Are a little afraid, they don’t like taking chances She will play the waiting game She’s never impressed by those manly advances I know I’ve only just met you Maybe I should know better But when you look at me that way There’s something inside that’s so right I don’t wanna lose you And I don’t even wanna say goodbye, oh, no I just wanna hold on To this true […]

Tina Turner – ”I’m ready”
I was happy with the fear, every moon was new I was searching for myself When I found an angel there in the clouds, I flew Now it seems like forever since I said that I’d never Find a love whose aim was true But I found that love and I found myself in you Now I’m ready to touch somebody I’m ready to love someone I’m ready to listen (oh, oh, oh) to my heart and let you in I’m ready to touch somebody I’m ready to love someone I’m ready to finally feel something real in me I was running out of runway, too scared to land There was stardust in my eyes When I crashed into something I’ve never felt before Whoa, I survived from the tide, now I’m finally alive ‘Cause I’m right here in your arms And it’s time that I live, and it’s time […]
Tina Turner – ”When the heartache is over”
Once in a lifetime you find Someone to show you the way Someone to make your decisions But I let you lead me astray Who did you think you were fooling?

Tina Turner – ”On silent wings”
There was a time when I would have followed you To the end of the Earth I was willing to share it all with you The love, the hurt I’ve seen you when your dreams were falling in the dust But I never stopped believing in you I always thought, our love was strong enough One you could hold on to, whoa You never see it coming, you just let it fly On silent wings, silent wings You can’t hide what you feel inside And the fire has left your eyes On silent wings I see us in our dreams and we’re dancing I can almost hear the song But the prayers, they go unanswered But we both know, we’re just hanging on, ooh I feel ashamed, but I’ll never know the reason why The rug was pulled so gently from under my feet I only know that something good […]
