You’ll Never Walk Alone.
When you walk through a storm, Hold your head up high, And don’t be afraid of the dark. At the end of a storm, There’s a golden sky, And the sweet silver song of a lark. Walk on through the wind, Walk on through the rain, For your dreams be tossed and blown. Walk on, walk on, With hope in your heart, And you’ll never walk alone. You’ll never walk alone. Walk on, walk on, With hope in your heart, And you’ll never walk alone. You’ll never walk alone.

I’d Love You to Want Me.
When I saw you standing there, About fell off my chair, And when you moved your mouth to speak, I felt the blood go to my feet. Now it took time for me to know, What you tried so not to show, Something in my soul just cried, I see the want in your blue eyes. Baby, I’d love you to want me, The way that I want you, The way that it should be. (Mmm) – Baby, you’d love me to want you, The way that I want to, If you’d only let it be. You told yourself years ago, You’d never let your feelings show, The obligation that you made, For the title that they gave. Baby, I’d love you to want me, The way that I want you, The way that it should be. Baby, you’d love me to want you, The way that I want to, If you’d only let it be. Now, it took time for me to know, What you tried so not to show, Something in my soul just cried, I see the want in your blue eyes. Baby, I’d love you to want me, The way that I want you, The way that it should be. (Mmm) – Baby, you’d love me to want you, The way that I want to, If you’d only let it be. Oh baby, I’d love you to want me, The way that I want you, The way that it should be. (Mmm) – Baby, you’d love me to want you, The way that I want to, If you’d only let it be
