"I Was Born To Love You" (2000)



I Was Born To Love You lyrics - Eric Carmen

I never really understood love
No, not until I saw your face
Then I knew what I'd been missing
For all my life

I never let myself believe it
No, not till I looked into your eyes
Then I knew I found all I need
The moment that I found you

I was born to love you
Born to be right here by your side
Through all your darkest nights
I was born to love you
I'd do anything to make you mine
Until the end of time

There's no need to ever doubt it
You set my love free when you walked in the door
You changed everything
You're all that I'm living for

I was born to love you
Born to be right here by your side
Through all your darkest nights
I was born to love you
I'd do anything to make you mine
Until the end of time

You changed everything
You're all that I'm living for

I was born to love you
Born to be right here by your side
Through all your darkest nights
I was born to love you
I'd do anything to make you mine
Until the end of time

I was born to love you
Born to be right here by your side
Through all your darkest nights
I was born to love you
I'd do anything to make you mine
Until the end of time

I was born to love you

Someone That You Loved Before lyrics - Eric Carmen

You used to touch me
Baby, now your touch has turned so cold
You used to want me
Now baby, you just want to let me go
And I can see I'm losing you now
And I don't wanna

No, I don't wanna be just
Someone that you loved before
Baby, please don't let me be
Someone you don't love no more
Just tell me we could make it right
'Cause I'd do anything
To hold you in my arms and then
Hear you say
You're back in love with me again

Is it over?
Baby, are we over now for good?
I know you're goin'
If I could make you stay you know I would
If I could just get through to you now
'Cause I don't wanna

No I don't wanna be just
Someone that you loved before
Baby, please don't let me be
Someone you don't love no more
Just tell me we could make it right
'Cause I'd do anything
To hold you in my arms and then
Hear you say
You're back in love with me again

Baby, can't we give it one more try?
'Cause I don't wanna be the one you leave behind

Baby, I don't wanna be just
Someone that you loved before
Baby, tell me I could be
Someone you could love once more
Just tell me we could make it right
'Cause I'd do anything
To hold you in my arms and then
Hear you say
You're back in love with me again

Someone that you loved before
Baby, tell me I could be
Someone you could love once more
Just tell me we could make it right
'Cause I'd do anything
To hold you in my arms and then
Hear you say
You're back in love with me again

Someone that you loved before
Baby, tell me I could be
Someone you could love once more
Just tell me we could make it right
'Cause I'd do anything
To hold you in my arms and then
Hear you say
You're back in love with me again

Every Time I Make Love To You lyrics - Eric Carmen

When this world gets a little crazy
There's a place here just for you
Come around and I'll be waiting
Baby, I'll chase away your blues

'Cause no one else compares with you baby
No one makes me feel like you do
I wanna hear you whisper my name

Everytime I make love to you
Feels like the first time
Whoa-oh baby, from the very first touch
I need you, I need you, I want you so bad
It's all that my heart understands

Everytime I make love to you
Feels like the first kiss
Whoa-oh baby, never felt like this
No one could love me the way that you do
Everytime we make love

Let me kiss you soft and tender
Feel your heart beat next to mine
In your arms, baby, I surrender
I want to be with you all the time

'Cause no one else compares with you baby
No one makes me feel like you do
Everytime

Everytime I make love to you
Feels like the first time
Whoa-oh baby, from the very first touch
I need you, I need you, I want you so bad
That's all that my heart understands

Everytime I make love to you
Feels like the first kiss
Whoa-oh baby, it never felt like this
'Cause no one could love me the way that you do
Everytime we make love

Ooh baby, now my heart's on fire
I only want to show you my desire
And I'll do anything you want me to do

If you tell me your secrets
And show me your dreams
I'm the one who could make then come true
Everytime

Everytime I make love to you
Feels like the first time
Whoa-oh baby, from the very first touch
I need you, I need you, I want you so bad
It's all that my heart understands

Everytime I make love to you
Feels like the first kiss
Whoa-oh baby, it never felt like this
No one could love me the way that you do
No one could love me the way that you do
Baby, No one could love me the way that you do
Everytime we make love

Baby now my hearts on fire
I wanna show you my desire

Everytime we make love

Baby now my hearts on fire
I wanna show you my desire

Everytime we make love

Baby now my hearts on fire
I wanna show you my desire

Everytime we make love

Baby now my hearts on fire
I wanna show you my desire

Everytime we make love

Cartoon World lyrics - Eric Carmen

I like the colors
I like the way they move
They're all so brilliantly realized
They just could not be improved

I love the way the sex is so overt
I love the way the violence doesn't hurt

It's a cartoon world
It's exactly as it seems
And it's bigger than life
And better than all your dreams

It's a cartoon world
It's a safer place to be
And it's better than real
A perfect facsimile
It's a cartoon world

I like the things their saying
I like the way they're said
I like to change the channels
While I'm lying in my bed

From the commercial to the anchorman
They've done research on my attention span

It's a cartoon world
It's exactly as it seems
And it's smaller than life
And better than all your dreams

It's a cartoon world
It's a safer place to be
And it's better than real
And bigger than you and me

And the stars are brighter
They've got more charisma
And more style than you and me

I watch the news on TV
It doesn't mean a thing to me
What's a little ethnic cleansing?
That's the way it's always been

I was excited when the war began
Now I've got Gameboy, I'm a happy man

It's a cartoon world
It's exactly as it seems
And it's bigger than life
And better than all your dreams

It's a cartoon world
It's a safer place to be
And it's better than real
A perfect facsimile
It's a cartoon world

It's a cartoon world
It's a cartoon world

It's a cartoon world
It's a cartoon world

It's a cartoon world

Almost Paradise lyrics - Eric Carmen

I thought that dreams belonged to other men
'Cause each time I got close
They'd fall apart again

I feared my heart would beat in secrecy
I faced the nights alone
Oh, how could I have known
That all my life I only needed you?

Oh
Almost paradise
We're knockin' on heaven's door
Almost paradise
How could we ask for more?
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
Paradise

It seems like perfect love's so hard to find
I'd almost given up
You must have read my mind

And all these dreams I saved for a rainy day
They're finally coming true
I'll share them all with you
'Cause now we hold the future in our hand

Oh
Almost paradise
We're knockin' on heaven's door
Almost paradise
How could we ask for more?
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
Paradise

And in your arms salvation's not so far away
It's getting closer
Closer every day

Almost paradise
We're knockin' on heaven's door
Almost paradise
How could we ask for more?
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
Paradise

Paradise

Paradise

Top Down Summer lyrics - Eric Carmen

Wakin' up
And the sun is in my eyes
Temperature is rising
It's so hot

Shake it up
I go racing through the streets
Howling in the heat
And you know why

Girls in cars are driving through the city
Breaking hearts, but looking awful pretty
Baby, not so fast
Make the summer last

Top down summer
Are you ready for love?
Top down summer
We can drive to forever tonight
Hey baby, the right time's finally here
The top down time of the year

Take your Mustang off the blocks
Ain't nobody walks when it's sooo hot

Me and you
We can ride to town in style
Flash 'em all a smile
And you know what

I'm so high whenever we're together
I wish we could feel this way forever
Love is weatherproof
C'mon raise the roof

Top down summer
Are you ready for love?
Top down summer
We can drive to forever tonight
Hey baby, the right time's finally here
The top down time of the year

Are we close enough to touch
(Baby, let me show you how)
It's too hot to wear too much
(It's too late to turn back now)

Top down summer
Are you ready for love?
Top down summer
We can drive to forever tonight
Hey baby, the right time's finally here
The top down time of the year

Top down summer
Are you ready for love?
Top down summer
We can drive to forever tonight
Hey baby, the right time's finally here
The top down time of the year

Top down summer
Are you ready for love?
Top down summer
We can drive to forever tonight
Hey baby, the right time's finally here
The top down time of the year

Top down summer
Are you ready for love?
Top down summer
We can drive to forever tonight
Hey baby, the right time's finally here
The top down time of the year

Top down summer
Are you ready for love?
Top down summer
We can drive to forever tonight
Hey baby, the right time's finally here
The top down time of the year

Isn't It Romantic lyrics - Eric Carmen

Are the stars just shining brighter?
Is that perfume in the air?
Seems the moon has got control of me
And I don't really care

With our bodies gently swaying
To the rhythm of the night
Has there ever been a place or time
That ever felt so right

Oh, I've dreamed about this moment
Ever since I saw your face
Now I never wanna let it slip away

Isn't it romantic
How our kisses seem to set the night on fire?
Baby, when I look at you it takes my breath away

Isn't it romantic
when we close our eyes and hold each other tight?
If only love could always be this way

There's a samba playing somewhere
Or is it just my beating heart?
I can swear I hear the strumming of
A classical guitar

Playing softly while you whisper
All the words I've longed to hear
As I pull your body close to mine
The world just disappears

Oh, I dreamed about this moment
Ever since I saw your face
Now I never wanna let it slip away

Isn't it romantic
How our kisses seem to set the night on fire?
Baby, when I look at you it takes my breath away

Isn't it romantic
when we close our eyes and hold each other tight?
If only love could always be this way

Isn't it romantic
How our kisses seem to set the night on fire?
Baby, when I look at you it takes my breath away

Isn't it romantic
when we close our eyes and hold each other tight?
If only love could always be this way

Isn't it romantic
How our kisses seem to set the night on fire?
Baby, when I look at you it takes my breath away

Isn't it romantic
when we close our eyes and hold each other tight?
If only love could always be this way

I Could Really Love You lyrics - Eric Carmen

I never quite know what to do
When I'm with you
(When I'm with you)
I'm never really sure if I'm doin' things right

I never know the words to say
The games to play,
But that's okay
I bet that I could get you through the night

Oh, I could really love you
I swear (I swear)
It's true (It's true)
There isn't much I'm certain of
But this much I can do
Oh, I could really love you

I know there's lots of other men
Who talk of love
(They'll talk of love)
They'll sweep you off your feet with the way they live

After all those champagne highs
And quick goodbyes
You'll realize there's something more
That only I could give

Oh, I could really love you
I swear (I swear)
It's true (It's true)
There isn't much I'm certain of
But this much I can do
Oh, I could really love you

And even though you're waiting for your perfect love
You don't have to wait around no more

I could really love you
I swear (I swear)
It's true (It's true)
There isn't much I'm certain of
But this much I can do
Oh, I could really love you

I could really love you
I swear (I swear)
It's true (It's true)
There isn't much I'm certain of
But this much I can do
Oh, I could really love you

I could really love you
I swear (I swear)
It's true (It's true)
There isn't much I'm certain of
But this much I can do
Oh, I could really love you

Caroline, No lyrics - Eric Carmen

(originally by Brian Wilson)
Where did your long hair go
Where is the girl I used to know
How could you lose that happy glow
Oh, Caroline no

Who took that look away
I remember how you used to say
You'd never change, but that's not true
Oh, Caroline you

Break my heart
I want to go and cry
It's so sad to watch a sweet thing die
Oh, Caroline why

Could I ever find in you again
Things that made me love you so much then
Could we ever bring 'em back once they have gone
Oh, Caroline no

I Wanna Take Forever Tonight lyrics - Eric Carmen

Feel your breath
On my shoulder
And I know we couldn't get any closer
I don't wanna act up
I just wanna make love
As we move
Into the night
I get crazy
Thinking how it's gonna be with you baby
I don't wanna play rough
I've been giving you enough
Whoa baby, baby, baby

I wanna take forever tonight
Wanna stay in this moment forever
I'm gonna give you all the love that I've got
You know, I wanna take forever tonight
Fill you up, fill you up with my love
When we close the door
All I need is in your eyes
Whoa, whoa
I wanna take forever tonight

Touch my lips
I'm on fire
You're the only one I'll ever desire
Turn the lights down low
Make the world go slow
When I'm holding you
Tonight
It's so easy
Nothing moves me like you do when you tease me
And to rush would be a crime
I just wanna stop time

With you baby, baby

I wanna take forever tonight
Wanna stay in this moment forever
I'm gonna give you all the love that I've got
You know, I wanna take forever tonight
Fill you up, fill you up with my love
When we close the door
All I need is in your eyes
Whoa,whoa
I wanna take forever

And when I lay beside you
I wanna see what drives you out of your mind
Ooh, baby
I wanna tantalize you
Take all of my time with you
Whoa baby, baby, baby

I wanna take forever tonight
Wanna stay in this moment forever
I'm gonna give you all the love that I've got
You know, I wanna take forever tonight
Wanna stay in this moment forever
I wanna take forever tonight
Fill you up, fill you up with my love
Give you all the love that I've got

Oh, I wanna take forever tonight
Gonna stay in this moment forever
I wanna take forever tonight
Fill you up, fill you up with my love
Give you all the love that I've got

Oh, I wanna take forever tonight

Walk Away Renée lyrics - Eric Carmen

(originally by The Left Banke)
And when I see the sign that points "One Way"
The one we used to pass by every day


Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame



From deep inside the fear that I forced aside
From deep inside the pain that I chose to hide



Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes
For me it cries



Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes
For me it cries



Your name and mine inside a heart upon a wall
Still find a way to haunt me, though they're so small



Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame

Go All The Way lyrics - Eric Carmen

I never knew how complete love could be
Till she kissed me and said,
"Baby, please go all the way,
It feels so right
Being with you here tonight,
Please, go all the way,
Just hold me close
Don't ever let me go"

I couldn't say what I wanted to say
Till she whispered, "I love you so,
Please go all the way,
It feels so right
Being with you here tonight,
Please, go all the way,
Just hold me close
Don't ever let me go"

Before her love I was cruel and mean,
I had a hole in the place where my heart should have been
But now I've changed,
And it feels so strange
I come alive when she does all those things to me
And she says,
"Come on" (Come on)
"Come on" (Come on)
"Come on" (Come on)
"Come on" (Come on)
"I need you" (Come on)
"I love you" (Come on)
"I need you" (Come on)

Please, go all the way
It feels so right being with you here tonight
Please, go all the way
Just hold me close
Don't ever let me go

Go all the way
