RICK ASTLEY – You Belong To Me

See the pyramids along the Nile.
Watch the sunrise from a tropic isle.
Just remember, darling, all the while
You belong to me.

See the marketplace in old Algiers.
Send me photographs and souvenirs.
Just remember when a dream appears
You belong to me.

I’ll be so alone without you.
Maybe you’ll be lonesome, too.
And blue.

Fly the ocean in a silver plane.
See the jungle when it’s wet with rain.
Just remember till your home again
You belong to me.

RICK ASTLEY – Where Do I Begin?

Where do I begin
To tell the story of how great a love can be
The sweet love story that is older than the sea
The simple truth about the love she brings to me
Where do I start

With her first hello
She gave new meaning to this empty world of mine
There’ll never be another love, another time
She came into my life and made the living fine
She fills my heart

She fills my heart with very special things
With angels’ songs , with wild imaginings
She fills my soul with so much love
That everywhere I go I’m never lonely
With you my love, who could be lonely
I reach for her hand-it’s always there

How long does it last
Can love be measured by the hours in a day
I have no answers now but this much I can say
I know I’ll need her till the stars all burn away
And she’ll be there

RICK ASTLEY – When I Fall In Love

When I fall in love it will be forever
Or I’ll never fall in love
In a restless world like this is
Love is ended before it’s begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun

When I give my heart it will be completely
Or I’ll never give my heart
And the moment I can feel
that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you

And the moment I can feel
that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you

RICK ASTLEY – What The World Needs Now (Is Love)

What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love,
It’s the only thing that there’s just too little of.
What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love,
No, not just for some but for everyone.

Lord, we don’t need another mountain,
There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb,
There are oceans and rivers enough to cross,
Enough to last ’till the end of time.

What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love,
It’s the only thing that there’s just too little of.
What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love,
No, not just for some but for everyone.

Lord, we don’t need another meadow,
There are cornfields and wheat fields enough to grow,
There are sunbeams and moonbeams enough to shine,
Oh listen Lord, if you want to know, oh

What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love,
It’s the only thing that there’s just too little of.
What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love,
No, not just for some oh but just for every, every, everyone.

What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love.
What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love.
What the world needs now,
Is love, sweet love.

RICK ASTLEY – Vincent

Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summers day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul…
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colours on the snowy linen land.

Now I understand
What you tried to say, to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free:
They would not listen; they did not know how –
Perhaps theyll listen now.

Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in Vincent’s eyes of china blue
Colours changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist’s loving hand.

Now I understand
What you tried to say, to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free:
They would not listen; they did not know how –
Perhaps they’ll listen now.

For they could not love you
But still, your love was true
And when no hope was left inside
On that starry, starry night
You took your life as lovers often do –
But I could’ve told you, Vincent:
This world was never meant
For one as beautiful as you.

RICK ASTLEY – Together Forever

If there’s anything you need
All you have to do is say
You know you satisfy everything in me
We shouldn’t waste a single day

So don’t stop me falling
It’s destiny calling
A power I just can’t deny
It’s never changing
Can’t you hear me, I’m saying
I want you for the rest of my life

Together forever and never to part
Together forever we two
And don’t you know
I would move heaven and earth
To be together forever with you

If they ever get you down
There’s always something I can do
Because I wouldn’t ever wanna see you frown
I’ll always do what’s best for you

There ain’t no mistaking
It’s true love we’re making
Something to last for all time
It’s never changing
Can’t you hear me, I’m saying
I want you for the rest of my life

Together forever and never to part
Together forever we two
And don’t you know
I would move heaven and earth
To be together forever with you

So don’t stop me falling
It’s destiny calling
A power I just can’t deny
It’s never changing
Can’t you hear me, I’m saying
I want you for the rest of my life

Together forever and never to part
Together forever we two
And don’t you know
I would move heaven and earth
To be together forever with you

RICK ASTLEY – These Foolish Things

A cigarette that bears a lipstick’s traces
An airline ticket to romantic places
And still my heart has wings
These foolish things remind me of you

A tinkling piano in the next apartment
Those stumblin’ words that told you what my heart meant
A fairground’s painted swings
These foolish things remind me of you

You came, you saw, you conquered me
When you did that to me
I knew somehow this had to be

The winds of March that make my heart a dancer
A telephone that rings but who’s to answer?
Oh, how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things remind me of you

How strange, how sweet, to find you still
These things are dear to me
They seem to bring you near to me

The sigh of midnight trains in empty stations
Silk stockings thrown aside, dance invitations
Oh, how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things remind me of you

RICK ASTLEY – Somewhere

There’s a place for us
Somewhere a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air
Wait for us
Somewhere

There’s a time for us
Some day a time for us
Time together and time to spare
Time to look, time to care
Someday
Somewhere

We’ll find a new way of living
We’ll find there’s a way of forgiving
Somewhere

There’s a place for us
A time and place for us
Hold my hand and we’re halfway there
Hold my hand and I’ll take you there
Somehow
Someday
Somewhere

There’s a place for us
Hold my hand and we’re halfway there
Hold my hand and I’ll take you there
Somehow
Someday
Somewhere

RICK ASTLEY – She Wants To Dance With Me

She wants to dance
She wants to dance with me
Oh yeah (dance with me)

There’s a girl I’ve been waiting to see
And I really get the feeling that she likes me
‘Cos she said so, but not in so many words
I’ve got to tell you what I’ve heard

She don’t want no wild romance
When she’s with me she only wants to dance

She wants to dance with me
‘Cos I’ll hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
‘Cos I’ll let her be what she wants to be

Now I know I’ve been out of touch
And I never meant to hurt my baby oh so much
‘Cos I love her and I think she love me
And that’s the way it’s got to be

When we’re together we never fight
We’ve got better things to do tonight

She wants to dance with me
‘Cos I’ll hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
‘Cos I’ll let her be what she wants to be

She wants to dance
She wants to dance

She wants to dance with me
‘Cos I’ll hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
‘Cos I’ll let her be what she wants to be

RICK ASTLEY – Never Gonna Give You Up

Oooh

We’re no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment’s what I’m thinking of
You wouldn’t get this from any other guy

I just wanna tell you how I’m feeling
Gotta make you understand

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

We’ve known each other for so long
Your heart’s been aching, but
You’re too shy to say it
Inside, we both know what’s been going on
We know the game and we’re gonna play it

And if you ask me how I’m feeling
Don’t tell me you’re too blind to see

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry

Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

(Ooh, give you up)
Never gonna give, never gonna give
(Give you up)
Never gonna give, never gonna give
(Give you up)

We’ve known each other for so long
Your heart’s been aching, but
You’re too shy to say it
Inside, we both know what’s been going on
We know the game and we’re gonna play it

I just wanna tell you how I’m feeling
Gotta make you understand

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye

Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

RICK ASTLEY – Nature Boy

There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he

And then one day
A magic day he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
“The greatest thing you’ll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return”

“The greatest thing you’ll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return”

RICK ASTLEY – Make It Easy On Yourself

Breaking up is so very hard to do

If you really love him
And there’s nothing I can do
Don’t try to spare my feelings
Just tell me that we’re through

And make it easy on yourself
Make it easy on yourself
‘Cause breaking up is so very hard to do

And if the way I hold you
Can’t compare to his caress
No words of consolation
Will make me miss you less

My darling, if this is goodbye
I just know I’m gonna cry
So run to him
Before you start crying too

And make it easy on yourself
Make it easy on yourself
‘Cause breaking up is so very hard to do

Oh, baby, it’s so hard to do

RICK ASTLEY – It Would Take A Strong Strong Man

My heart starts breaking
When I think of making
A plan to let you go
I keep thinking maybe tomorrow
I’m gonna let you know
But I when I think about leaving
I think about losing
The only love I ever knew
Every time I think of you

My heart starts aching
My hands keep shaking
And you know, you know, you know

It would take a strong, strong man
To ever let you go (to ever let you go)
To ever let you go

My heart’s been hurting
When I see you flirting
Every night out on the floor
I keep thinking maybe tomorrow
You’ll grow to love me more
But whenever we’re together
I could leave you never
Even though you treat me cruel
Every time I look at you

My heart starts aching
My hands keep shaking
And you know, you know, you know

It would take a strong, strong man
To ever let you go (to ever let you go)
To ever let you go

I tried to resist you
When you’re gone, all I ever do is miss you
Anyone in love would know
Anyone with half a heart
Could never let you go

But I when I think about leaving
I think about losing
The only girl I ever loved
Can’t you tell me why do you hurt me
I guess some people never see
Especially a fool like me

My heart starts aching
My hands keep shaking
And you know, you know, you know

It would take a strong, strong man
To ever let you go (to ever let you go)
To ever let you go

To ever let you go
I’ll never let you go
(To ever let you go)

RICK ASTLEY – I’ll Never Let You Down

Me, I’m just a simple guy
And no matter how hard I try
I may never show you how I feel

You may be the woman I love
I sometimes think that you’ve been sent from above
I am trying to be a man
Heaven knows, I do the best that I can

I’ll never let you down
I’ll be there whenever you need me
I’ll never let you down
Come what my way

Me, I’ll be a shoulder to cry on
I’ll be someone you can rely on
And maybe you may see just how I feel

We may be so far apart
But you still know I’ve got a hungry heart
We must be patient, it won’t last forever
It won’t be long until we’re together

I’ll never let you down
I’ll be there whenever you need me
I’ll never let you down
I’ll be strong, I’ll show you how love can be
I’ll never let you down
Come what my way

We must be patient, it won’t last forever
It won’t be long until we’re together

I’ll never let you down
I’ll be there whenever you need me
I’ll never let you down
I’ll be strong, I’ll show you how love can be

[Choruses to fade]

RICK ASTLEY – I Can’t Help Falling In Love (With You)

Wise men say, only fools rush in.
But I can’t help falling in love with you
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin?
I can’t help falling in love with you

As the river flows gently to the sea
Darling so we go, some things were meant to be
Take my hand take my whole heart too
‘Cause I can’t help falling in love with you

As the river flows gently to the sea
Darling so we go, some things were meant to be
Take my hand take my whole heart too
‘Cause I can’t help falling in love with you

RICK ASTLEY – Hopelessly

I walk the wire every night
I can’t decide between wrong and right
I’ve lost control over the things i do
‘Cause I’m hopelessly falling in love with you

Now the one who never took a chance
Becomes a victim of circumstance
I’ve lost my way, now I’m so confused
‘Cause I’m hopelessly falling in love with you

All my dreams are far behind me
They don’t matter anymore
I don’t care about the things I could lose
‘Cause I’m hopelessly falling in love with you

Now the one who always played it safe
Becomes another who’s lost his way
I can’t believe it, though I know it’s true
‘Cause I’m hopelessly falling in love with you

And all my dreams begin to blind me
And I was so confused
And I don’t care about the things I could lose
‘Cause I’m hopelessly falling in love with you

I’m not gonna fight it, I’m gonna choose
To hopelessly fall, oh yeah
You know I’ll hopelessly fall in love, with you.

RICK ASTLEY – Cry Me A River

Now you say you’re lonely
You cried the long night through
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you

Now you say you’re sorry
For being so untrue
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried, cried, cried a river over you

You drove me, nearly drove me, out of my head
While you never shed a tear
Remember, I remember, all that you said
You told me love was too plebeian
Told me you were through with me and

Now you say, you say you love me
Well, just to prove that you do
Come on and cry me a river, cry me a river
‘Cause I cried a river over you

You drove me, nearly drove me, out of my head
While you never shed a tear
Remember, remember, all that you said
Told me love was too plebeian
Told me you were through with me and

Now, now you say you love me
Well, just to prove you do
Come on and cry, cry, cry me a river, cry me a river
‘Cause I cried a river over you

If my pillow talk, imagine what it would have said
Could it be a river of tears I cried in bed?
So you can cry me a river
Daddy, go ahead and cry that river
‘Cause I cried, how I cried a river over you
How I cried a river over you

RICK ASTLEY – Cry For Help

She’s taken my time
Convinced me she’s fine
But when she leaves
I’m not so sure

It’s always the same
She’s playing her game
And when she goes
I feel to blame

Why won’t she say
She needs me?
I know she’s not
As strong as she seems

Why don’t I see
Her cry for help?
Why don’t I feel
Her cry for help?
Why don’t I hear
Her cry for help?

I wandered around
The streets of this town
Trying to find sense in it all

The rain on my face
It covers the trace
Of all the tears
I’ve had to waste

Why must we hide emotions?
Why must we never break down and cry?

All that I need
Is to cry for help
Somebody please hear me
Cry for help
All I can do
Is cry for help

No need to feel ashamed
Release the pain
Cry for help

Cry for help
Is all I need
All I need
Is a cry for help

Cry for help
Is all I need
All I need
Is a cry for help

Why must we hide emotions?
Why can’t we ever break down and cry?

All that I need
Is to cry for help
I will be there
When you cry for help
Why don’t I hear
Her cry for help?

All that I need
Is to cry for help
Somebody please hear me
Cry for help
All I can do
Is cry for help

All that I need
Is to cry for help
I will be there
When you cry for help
Is it so hard to cry for help?

Cry for help is all I need
No need to feel ashamed
All I need is a cry for help
Come on and release the pain
Cry for help is all I need
Put your trust in me
All I need is a cry for help
My love is gonna set you free

RICK ASTLEY – Portrait Of My Love

There could never be a portrait of my love,
For nobody can paint a dream.
You will never see a portrait of my love,
For miracles are never seen.

Anyone who sees her
Soon forgets the Mona Lisa.

It would take, I know, a Michelangelo
And he would need the glow of dawn
That paints the skies above
To try and paint a portrait of my love.

RICK ASTLEY – And I Love You So

And I love you so.
The people ask me how,
How I’ve lived till now.
I tell them I don’t know.

I guess they understand
How lonely life has been.
But life began again
The day you took my hand.

And, yes, I know how lonely life can be.
The shadows follow me, and the night won’t set me free.
But I don’t let the evening get me down
Now that you’re around me.

And you love me, too.
Your thoughts are just for me;
You set my spirit free.
I’m happy that you do.

The book of life is brief
And once a page is read,
All but love is dead.
That is my belief.

And, yes, I know how loveless life can be.
The shadows follow me, and the night won’t set me free.
But I don’t let the evening bring me down
Now that you’re around me.

And I love you so.
The people ask me how,
How I’ve lived till now.
I tell them, “i don’t know.”
