(Eric Clapton — Peter Robertson)
It's in the way that you use it, It comes and it goes. It's in the way that you use it, Boy don't you know. And if you lie you will lose it, Feelings will show. So don't you ever abuse it, Don't let it go. Nobody's right till somebody's wrong. Nobody's weak till somebody's strong. No one gets lucky till luck comes along. Nobody's lonely till somebody's gone. It's in the way that you use it, It comes and it goes. It's in the way that you use it, Boy don't you know. It's in the way that you use it, It comes and it goes. It's in the way that you use it, Boy don't you know. And if you lie you will lose it, Feelings will show. So don't you ever abuse it, Don't let it go. I've seen dark skies, never like this. Walked on some thin ice, never like this. I've told you white lies, never like this. Looked into true eyes, never like this. It's in the way that you use it, It comes and it goes. It's in the way that you use it, Boy don't you know.
(Lamont Dozier)
When love comes apart, I used to be Living it up, fancy free, Then one night it came to an end; I met that girl and the trouble began. Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run. Whatcha gonna do to me? Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run. Whatcha gonna do to me? I was hooked with just one look; Easy prey, child's play. I knew this girl was no one night stand. They're just like putty in her hands. Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run. Whatcha gonna do to me? Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run. Whatcha gonna do to me? Got no answers, got no cure, But one thing I know for sure: This is the girl, she's the one. She makes it so hard for me to run. Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run. Whatcha gonna do to me? Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run. Whatcha gonna do to me? People tell me, You might as well face it, she's got it all fixed. You might as well face it, she's got it all fixed. Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run. Whatcha gonna do to me? Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run. Whatcha gonna do to me? Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run. Whatcha gonna do to me? Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run. Whatcha gonna do to me?
(Eric Clapton — Greg Phillinganes)
You know the sun is shining, but it's raining in my heart. I don't know what to do since we've been apart. Why don't you tell me babe, what is going on? You know I love you darling, don't want to be alone. They're tearing us apart, They're breaking up my heart. I knew it from the start; Your friends are tearing us apart. You know I can't go on feeling this old way. You know my heart is burning, it's burning everyday. You know I love you baby, no one else will do. Why don't you reconsider, do what I want you to? They're tearing us apart, They're breaking up my heart. I knew it from the start; Your friends are tearing us apart. They're tearing us apart, They're breaking up my heart. I knew it from the start; Your friends are tearing us apart. Your friends are tearing us apart, Tearing us apart.
(Eric Clapton — Stephen Bishop)
Holy Mother, where are you? Tonight I feel broken in two. I've seen the stars fall from the sky. Holy mother, can't keep from crying. Oh I need your help this time, Get me through this lonely night. Tell me please which way to turn To find myself again. Holy mother, hear my prayer, Somehow I know you're still there. Send me please some peace of mind; Take away this pain. I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait any longer. I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait for you. Holy mother, hear my cry, I've cursed your name a thousand times. I've felt the anger running through my soul; All I need is a hand to hold. Oh I feel the end has come, No longer my legs will run. You know I would rather be In your arms tonight. When my hands no longer play, My voice is still, I fade away. Holy mother, then I'll be Lying in, safe within your arms.
