The Carpenters - I Need To Be In Love (1976) (((Stereo)))
From the album:There’s A Kind Of Hush. Richard Carpenter had this to say about this song: “‘I Need To Be In Love’ with its soaring melody and melancholy John Bettis lyrics, became Karen’s favorite Carpenters song”.
Lyrics:
The hardest thing I’ve ever done is keep believing
There’s someone in this crazy world for me
The way that people come and go through temporary lives
My chance could come and I might never know
I used to say “No promises, let’s keep it simple”
But freedom only helps you say goodbye
It took a while for me to learn that nothing comes for free
The price I paid is high enough for me
* I know I need to be in love
I know I’ve wasted too much time
I know I ask perfection of a quite imperfect world
And fool enough to think that’s what I’ll find
+ So here I am with pockets full of good intentions
But none of them will comfort me tonight
I’m wide awake at 4 a.m. without a friend in sight
I’m hanging on a hope but I’m all right
repeat *
repeat +
repeat *

Bonnie Tyler - Lost in France 1977
Bonnie Tyler - Lost in France 1977
I was lost in France
In the fields the birds were singing
I was lost in France
And the day was just beginning
As I stood there in the morning rain
I had a feeling I can’t explain
I was lost in France in love.
I was lost in France
In the street a band was playing
And the crowd all danced
Didn’t catch what they were saying
When I looked up he was standing there
I knew I shouldn’t but didn’t care
I was lost in France in love
Oo la la la oo la la la dance
Oo la la la dancing
Oo la la la oo la la la dance
Oo la la la dancing
Oo la la la oo la la la dance
Oo la la la dancing
I was lost in France
And the vines were overflowing
I was lost in France
And a million stars were glowing
Then I looked round for a telephone
To say Baby, I won’t be home
I was lost in France in love.
Oo la la la oo la la la dance
Oo la la la dancing
Oo la la la oo la la la dance
Oo la la la dancing
Oo la la la oo la la la dance
Oo la la la dancing
(Instrumental)
Then I looked round for a telephone
To say Baby, I won’t be home
I was lost in France in love.
Oo la la la oo la la la dance
Oo la la la dancing
Oo la la la oo la la la dance
Oo la la la dancing
Oo la la la oo la la la dance
Oo la la la dancing
Oo la la la

Lyrics:
Where have all the good men gone
And where are all the gods?
Where’s the street-wise Hercules
To fight the rising odds?
Isn’t there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
Late at night I toss and turn and dream
of what I need
[Chorus]
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the end of the night
He’s gotta be strong
And he’s gotta be fast
And he’s gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I’m holding out for a hero ’til the morning light
He’s gotta be sure
And it’s gotta be soon
And he’s gotta be larger than life
Somewhere after midnight
In my wildest fantasy
Somewhere just beyond my reach
There’s someone reaching back for me
Racing on the thunder end rising with the heat
It’s gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet
[Chorus]
Up where the mountains meet the heavens above
Out where the lightning splits the sea
I would swear that there’s someone somewhere
Watching me
Through the wind end the chill and the rain
And the storm and the flood
I can feel his approach
Like the fire in my blood
[Chorus]
He’s gotta be strong
And he’s gotta be fast
And he’s gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero!
