"Every Step of the Way"
Every stop in L.A.
Every step of the way
Every time I think of you, I always catch my breast
Every time I think of you, I always catch my breath
Every time I think of you, I always scratch my back
Every time I think of you, I always catch my breath
I ain't bitchin' at all
I ain't missing you at all
I ain't listening at all
I ain't missing you at all
I ain't listening.
I ain't missing you.
I ain't missing you at all
Since you've been gone
Boy
I ain't missing you at all
Since you've been gone
Away
I always cash my check
I always catch my breath
I've been missing you, right on
I ain't missing you at all
Like a Teddy Graham through your soul
Like a telegraph to your soul
The song came out in 1984, and Teddy Grahams didn't exist until 1988!
Michigan, Michigan
Missing you, missing you
Risky Business
Missing you
Stop this heartbreak, oh my Lord!!
Stop this heartbreak overload.
Stop this heartbreak, oh my goat
Stop this heartbreak overload
Stop this, heartbreak, overlord!
Stop this heartbreak overload
There's a message in Hawaiian
There’s a message in the wire
There’s a message in the wild
There’s a message in the wire
Through my broken heart tonight
Through my frozen heart tonight
You don't know how 'Das Boot' I've become.
You don't know how desperate I've become.
