Cher - Forever Album Lyrics

I hear your reasons why
Where did you sleep last night?
And was she worth it was she worth it?

'Cos I'm strong enough
To live without you
Strong enough and I quit crying
Long enough now I'm strong enough
To know you gotta go

There's no more to say
So save your breath
And then walk away
No matter what I hear you say
I'm strong enough to know you gotta go

So you feel misunderstood
Baby, have I got news for you
On being used, I could write the book
You don't wanna hear about it

I've been losing sleep
You've been going cheap
She ain't worth half of me it's true
I'm telling you

Now I'm strong enough to live without you
Strong enough and I quite crying
Long enough now I'm strong enough...
To know you've gotta go

Come hell or waters high
You'll never see me cry
This is our last goodbye, it's true

I'm telling you
That I'm strong enough to live without you
Strong enough and I quite crying
Long enough now I'm strong enough
To know you gotta go

There's no more to say
So save your breath
And you walk away
No matter what I hear you say
I'm strong enough to know you've gotta go

And I remember the thunder
Talkin' 'bout the fire in your eyes
But you walked away when I needed you most
Now maybe, baby, maybe, baby

[Chorus:]
I found someone
To take away the heartache
To take away the loneliness
I've been feelin' since you've been gone
Since you've been gone

Dry your eyes
I never could bare to see you cry
Someday your love will shine through
And show you the feelings
If you never really knew

But baby don't you lose that thunder
Talkin' 'bout the fire in your eyes
You're lookin' at me
But ya still don't believe
That maybe, baby, maybe, baby

[Chorus]

Too long on the border line
Wonderin' if your love was really mine
But you left me with open eyes
And when I realized, baby

[Chorus]
[repeat]

[Chorus:]
Baby, save up all your tears
You might need them someday
When the tears start to fall
I won't wipe them away
When your cry in the night
For the love that you need
Baby, save up your tears
Cause you'll be crying over me (Oh yeah)

You got used to my touch
I got used to not feeling much
Winter set in your eyes
Time will melt your castle of ice
You think you wont feel the pain now
Your eyes will be crying like the rain now

[Chorus]

You don't know it now
You don't know it now
You don't know it now
You don't know it now
You don't know it now
But some wounds get deeper with time
You don't feel it now
Till the need burns, a knife turns
Your heart bleeds like mine

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

We're gonna love one another 'til morning comes
Seek the sweet salvation for what we've done
Give up resisting one by one
One by one
He gives a new kinda meaning to what I am
I know that I could never love any other man
One of these days you'll understand
Understand

And his face his heaven sent
He makes me believe there must be something else
Where does it end
It's too much for me to take
I can feel the need in you
There isn't a thing, I want you do
Where does it end
It's too much for me to take

[Chorus x2]

We're gonna love one another 'til morning comes
Sweet salvation for what we've done
Give up resisting one by one One by one

We're gonna love one another

We're gonna love one another
Give up resisting one by one
One by one

We turn the wheel and break the chain
Put steel to steel and laugh at pain
We're dreamers in castles made of sand
The road to Eden's overgrown
Don't you sometimes wish
Your heart was a heart of stone

Look at the headlines
Big crowd at the crazy house
Long queue for the joker's shoes
Ten rounds in the ring with love
Do you lose and win
Or win and lose
Sweet rain, like mercy in the night

(Lay me down, wash away the sorrow)
Caress my soul and set it right
(Lay me down, show me your tomorrow)
Summer tears, winter and the moment's flown
Don't you sometimes wish
Your heart was made of stone
Mercy, mercy wish your heart
Was a heart of stone

Get the picture
No room for the innocent
Peak season in lonely town
Knocked out of the ring by love
Are you down and up
Or up and down
I ask the river for a sign
(In a dream we go on together)
How long is love suppose to shine
(In a dream diamonds are forever)

But you and I, we hurt together, hurt alone
Don't you sometimes wish
Your heart was a heart of stone
Mercy, mercy wish your heart
Was a heart of stone
(With a heart of stone, you'll be well protected)
Don't you sometimes wish your heart
Was made of stone
(With a heart of stone, you'll be well connected)

For the way of love is a way of woe
And the day may come when you'll see him go
Then what will ya do when he sets you free
Just the way that you said goodbye to me

When you meet a boy that you like a lot
And you fall in love, but he loves you not
If a flame should start as you hold him near
Better keep your heart out of danger, dear

For the way of love is a way of woe
And the day may come when you'll see him go
Then what will ya do when he sets you free
Just the way that you said goodbye to me

That's the way of love
The way of love

[Chorus:]
Dark lady laughed and danced
And lit the candles one by one
Danced to her gypsy music
Till her brew was done
Dark lady played black magic
Till the clock struck on the twelve
She told me more about me
Than I knew myself

She dealt two cards, a queen and a three
And mumbled some words
That were so strange to me
Then she turned up a two-eyed jack
My eyes saw red but the card
Still stayed black
She said the man you love is secretly true
To someone else who is very close to you
My advice is that you leave this place
Never come back and forget
You ever saw my face

[Chorus]

So I ran home and crawled in my bed
I couldn't sleep
Because of all the things she said
Then I remembered her strange perfume
And how I smelled it once in my own room
So I sneaked back
And caught her with my man
Laughing and kissing
Till they saw the gun in my hand
The next thing I knew
They were dead on the floor
Dark lady would never
Turn a card up anymore

[Chorus]
