Happy Girl,
I've always liked that song. Bette does a great job on it.
Here's one of my favorites from Carly Simon.
Holding Me Tonight
words and music by Carly Simon
from her Have You Seen Me Lately CD. 1990
You say you're not worthy of me
But would you know when you can't see
your eyes where midnight catches fire?
I can't describe this dizzy desire
Can you be so insecure
That you don't know what this grin is for?
Do you think I always act this way?
Silly and silent, and eager to stay
When you're holding me
Holding me tonight
You think it's all a mistake
That I'm lost in a dream from which I'll wake up
And there you'll be just another guy
You could never be but I dare you to try
When you're holding me
Holding me tonight
I walk into your room
You blush when I see it in a mess
So I undress and close my eyes
A room with a view
Is in the dark with you
But that should come as no surprise
When youre holding me
when you're holding me tonight
It's not a matter of mind
The choice of the heart is a different kind
It's always been a mystery
When you walk in to the room it happens to me
And when you're holding me
When you're holding me tonight
When you're holding me tonight
When you're holding me tonight
when you're holding me tonight
baby, baby, baby,
Just give up those self doubts.
Love me with all that you've got to give
When you're holding me tonight
Holding me tonight
When you're holding me tonight
Want you to hold me, hold me now,
Baby, baby, baby...
I used to think that she said
"And there you'll be just a love god
You could never be, but I dare you to try"
instead of "another guy".
But then I got the lyrics and the CD.
I like it either way...;)
I first heard this on a Ford Stereo Demo Cassette,
but liked it so much, I tracked down the CD.
