Reach Out And Touch (Somebody's Hand)
(Nickolas Ashford/Valerie Simpson)

Reach out and touch somebody's hand
Make this world a better place if you can
Reach out and touch somebody's hand
Make this world a better place if you can

(Just try)
Take a little time out of your busy day
To give encouragement
To someone who's lost the way
(Just try)
Or would I be talking to a stone if I asked you
To share a problem that's not your own
We can change things if we start giving

Why don't you
Reach out and touch somebody's hand
Make this world a better place if you can
Reach out and touch somebody's hand
Make this world a better place if you can

(Just try)
If you see an old friend on the street and he's down
Remember his shoes could fit your feet
(Just try)
Try a little kindness you'll see
It's something that comes very naturally
We can change things if we start giving

Why don't you reach out and touch
Why don't you (why don't you)
Reach out and touch somebody's hand

Reach out and touch somebody's hand
Make this world a better place if you can
Reach out and touch somebody's hand
Make this world a better place if you can

Ain't No Mountain High Enough
(Nicholas Ashford/Valerie Simpson)

If you need me, call me
No matter where you are, no matter how far
Just call my name. I'll be there in a hurry
On that you can depend and never worry
You see, my love is alive
It's like a seed that only needs the thought of you to grow
So if you feel the need for company, please, my darling, let it be me
I may not be able to express the depth of the love I feel for you
But a writer put it very nicely when he was away from the one he loved
He sat down and wrote these words

No wind (no wind), no rain (no rain)
Nor winter's cold
Can stop me, babe (oh, babe) baby (baby)
If you're my goal

No wind, no rain
Can stop me, babe
If you wanna go

I know, I know you must follow the sun
Wherever it leads
But remember
If you should fall short of your desires
Remember life holds for you one guarantee
You'll always have me

And if you should miss my love
One of these old days
If you should ever miss the arms
That used to hold you so close, or the lips
That used to touch you so tenderly
Just remember what I told you
The day I set you free

Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough (say it again)
Ain't no river wild enough
To keep me from you

Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough (say it again)
Ain't no river wild enough
To keep me from you

Ain't no mountain high enough
Nothing can keep me
To keep me from you

Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough (one more time)
Ain't no river wild enough (say it again)
To keep me from you

Ain't no mountain high enough
Nothing can keep me
To keep me from you

Love Hangover

Ah, If there's a cure for this
I don't want it, don't want it
If there's a remedy, I'll run from it, from it

Think about it all the time
Never let it out of my mind
'Cause I love you

I've got the sweetest hangover
I don't wanna get over, sweetest hangover

Yeah, I don't wanna get over
I don't wanna get, I don't wanna get...over

Ooh, I don't need no cure
I don't need no cure, I don't need no cure

Sweet lovin', sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet love, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love

Don't call a doctor, don't call her momma
Don't call her preacher

No, I don't need it, I don't want it

Sweet love, I love you
Sweet love, need love

If there's a cure for this
I don't want it, I don't want it no
If there's a cure for this, I don't need it
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love

Upside Down
(B. Edwards/N. Rodgers)

I said upside down you're turnin' me
You're givin' love instinctively
Round and round you're turnin' me

Upside down, boy you turn me
Inside out and round and round
Upside down, boy you turn me
Inside out and round and round

Instinctively you give to me the love that I need
I cherish the moments with you
Respectfully I say to thee, I'm aware that you're cheatin'
When no one makes me feel like you do

Upside down, boy you turn me
Inside out and round and round
Upside down, boy you turn me
Inside out and round and round

I know you got charm and appeal, you always play the field
I'm crazy to think you are mine
As long as the sun continues to shine
There's a place in my heart for you that's the bottom line

Upside down, boy you turn me
Inside out and round and round
Upside down, boy you turn me
Inside out and round and round

Instinctively you give to me the love that I need
I cherish the moments with you
Respectfully I say to thee, I'm aware that you're cheatin'
When no one makes me feel like you do

Upside down, boy you turn me
Inside out and round and round
Upside down, boy you turn me
Inside out and round and round

Upside down you're turnin' me
You give your love instinctively
Round and round you're turnin' me
I say to thee respectfully
Upside down you're turnin' me ...
I said upside down you're turnin' me ...

My Old Piano
(Bernard Edwards/Nile Rodgers)

Love is called my old piano
I have a ball with my old piano

My baby entertains the real life of my parties
But still retains in all the dignity
His international style exudes an air of royalties
His eighty eight key smile is so pleasant to see

Love is called my old piano
I have a ball with my old piano

My old keyboard won't stand for a corner
He demands the middle of the room
Your heart disolves while he tips you so gracefully
'Till you're involved in a babygrand affair

Love is called my old piano
I have a ball with my old piano
Love is called my old piano
I have a ball with my old piano

He entertains the real life of my parties
But still retains in all the dignity
His international style exudes an air of royalties
His eighty eight key smile is so pleasant to see

My old keyboard won't stand for a corner
He demands the middle of the room
Your heart disolves while he tips you so gracefully
'Till you're involved in a babygrand affair

Love is called my old piano
I have a ball with my old piano ....

Why Do Fools Fall In Love?

Ooh-wah ooh-wah, ooh-wah ooh-wah
Ooh-wah ooh-wah, why do fools fall in love

Why do birds sing so gay, and lovers await the break of day
Why do they fall in love
Why does the rain fall from up above
Why do fools fall in love, why do they fall in love

Love is a losing game, love can be a shame
I know of a fool you see, for that fool is me
Tell my why, tell me why

Why do birds sing so gay, and lovers await the break of day
Why do they fall in love
Why does the rain fall from up above
Why do fools fall in love, why do they fall in love

Why does my heart skip a crazy beat
For I know I will reach defeat
Tell me why, tell my why

Why does my heart skip a crazy beat
For I know it will reach defeat
Tell me why, tell me why

Why do birds sing so gay and lovers await the break of day
Why do they fall in love
Why do they fall in love
Why do fools fall in love

Muscles

She said she wants a man to always understand
But that's alright for her, still it ain't enough for me
She said she wants a guy to keep her satisfied
But that's alright for her, but it ain't enough for me

Still, I don't care if he's young or old
(Just make him beautiful)
I just want someone I can hold on to

I want muscles all, all over his body
Make him strong enough from his head down to his toes
I want muscles all, all over his body
Make him strong enough from his head down to his toes

They say they have to see his real personality
But that's alright for them, still it ain't enough for me
I need what the eyes can see, ah his anatomy
If that's alright for them, still it ain't enough for me

I don't care if he's young or old
Just make him beautiful
I just want some strong man to hold on to

I want muscles all, all over his body
Make him strong enough from his head down to his toes
I want muscles all over his body
Make him strong enough from his head down to his toes

Muscle man, I want to love you
In person, I want your body
Come with me, hiding the cascades
Let this be, we've got this thing made
Lost at sea, hide the desert
Stay with me, you won't regret it
Take this love, so deep to swim in
Come to me and let the love in

She said she wants a man to always understand
But that's alright for her, still it ain't enough for me
I don't care if he's young or old just make him beautiful
I just want someone I can hold on to

I want muscles all, all over his body
Make him strong enough from his head down to his toes
I want muscles all over him, all over him
I want muscles all, all over his body
I want muscles - I want all I can get
All over him, all over him
I want muscles, muscles, muscles

Chain Reaction
(Barry, Robin and Maurice Gibb)

You took the mystery and make me want it
You got a pedestal and put me on it
You made me love you out of feeling nothing, something that you do
And I was there not dancing with anyone
You took a little then you took me over
You set your mark on stealing my heart away
Crying, trying anything for you

I'm in the middle of a chain reaction
You give me all the after midnight action
I wanna get you where I can let you make all that love to me
I'm on a journey for the inspiration to anywhere
And there ain't no salvation
I need you to get me nearer to you, so you can set me free
We talk about love, love, love, we talk about love
We talk about love, love, love, we talk about love

You make me tremble when your hand goes lower
You taste a little and you swallow slower
Nature has a way of yielding treasure, pleasure made for you
You gotta plan your future is on the run
Shine a light for the whole world over
You never find your love if you hide away crying, dying
All you gotta do is:

Get in the middle of the chain reaction
You get a medal when you're lost in action
I wanna get your love already for sweet sensation, instant radiation
You let me hold you for the first explosion
We get a picture of our love in motion
My arms will cover, my lips will smother you with no more left to say
We talk about love, love, love, we talk about love

Let me hold you for the first explosion, my arms will cover you
All you gotta do - get in the middle of the chain reaction ....
All you gotta do - get in the middle of the chain reaction ....
