Raspberries - Raspberries' Best Album Lyrics

Go All the Way
Tonight
Ecstasy
I Wanna Be with You
I Can Remember
Overnight Sensation (Hit Record)
Let's Pretend
Drivin' Around
Starting Over
Don't Want To Say Goodbye

Go All the Way

I never knew how complete love could be
'Til she kissed me and said

Baby, please, go all the way
It feels so right (feels so right)
Being with you here tonight
Please, go all the way
Just hold me close (hold me close)
Don't ever let me go

I couldn't say what I wanted to say
'Til she whispered, I love you

So please, go all the way
It feels so right (feels so right)
Being with you here tonight
Please, go all the way
Just hold me close (hold me close)
Don't ever let me go

Before her love
I was cruel and mean
I had a hole in the place
Where my heart should have been

But now I've changed
And it feels so strange
I come alive when she does
All those things to me

And she says
(Come on) Come on
(Come on) 
(Come on) Come on
(Come on)
I need ya (come on)
I love ya (come on)
I need ya (come on)

Please, go all the way
It feels so right (feels so right)
Being with you here tonight
Please, go all the way
Just hold me close (hold me close)
Don't ever let me go no (oh-oh)

Go on baby (oh-oh)

Tonight

One, two, three, four 
Hey! 
 
When you smiled at me 
And I saw your eyes 
All I ever wanted to be 
Was in your arms tonight 
 
You looked too young to know about romance 
Oh, yes you did 
But when you smiled, I had to take a chance 
I had to take a chance and be with you 
 
Tonight 
I'll be with you tonight 
Tonight 
You'll love me too tonight 
 
Woah baby, tonight 
I'm making love to you, oh, tonight 
Bop-om-doo-doh-woh-mop-shoo 
Woah, tonight 
You're gonna love me too tonight 
Woah, tonight 
 
Tonight 
I'll be with you tonight 
Tonight 
You'll love me too tonight 
Woah baby, tonight 
 
I don't know myself 
If it's wrong or right 
All I know is what I can feel 
So be my love tonight 
 
You looked too young to know about romance 
Oh, you know what I mean 
But when you smiled, I had to take a chance 
I had to take a chance and be with you 
 
Woh, tonight 
Won't you let me sleep with you, baby 
Woh, tonight 
I just wanna make you feel good inside, baby 
Woh, tonight 
Let me feel the love that's in you 
Woh, tonight 
Come on, come on, come on, come on 
And let me 
Come on, baby 
Woh, tonight

Ecstasy

        [ Featuring Eric Carmen ]
    

(come on!)

When I think of all your lovin' it makes me shiver
'Cause when I get home
Just wait 'til I get you alone

Ecstasy
When you touch me I'm in ecstasy
No one else could do the things you do
Let me please you too
Tonight

Ecstasy
When you kiss me I'm in ecstasy
No one else could make me feel this way
Tell me that you'll stay
Tonight

When you wrap your love around me and move so gently, yeah
I feel it begin
Don't stop, I can feel my head spinning

Baby, baby, I just wanna make you
Feel the way I do
You got my backbone shakin'
And my poor heart's breakin' in two

Stay tonight
Stay tonight

I Can Remember

I can remember Summer skies and your eyes
And in September, when I first realized
That I needed you to be
The other half of me

And my love long locked inside itself
Had finally been set free
I can remember Autumm skies and goodbyes
Hurting so badly that I thought I would die

But the more things seem to change
The more they stay the same
And the lonely ones get lonelier
With every passing day

From the day we met I knew that I should
Never let you
Get a hold on me 'cause noe you see I
Can't forget you

Oh I, I can remember midsummer skies
Love in your eyes
In the Spring, the sun will shine and make the
Ice surrender

But it will not warm my heart as long as
I remember
And I, I will remember midsummer skies
Love in your eyes

And I, I will remember the times I've cried
Since you say goodbye
I nearly died when you said,
"I, I can't let you down anymore

So I guess this goodbye"
What, what did you do it for?
Everytime I think of you and him together
I break down and cry

Oh I, I can remember the tears I've cried
Since you say goodbye
I can remember
OH I, I can remember midsummer skies

Love in your eyes
And I, I can remember the times I've cried
Since you said goodbye

Overnight Sensation (Hit Record)

Well I know it sounds funny
But I'm not in it for the money, no
I don't need reputation
And I'm not in it for the show

I just want a hit record
Want to hear it on the radio
Want a big hit record
One that everybody's got to know

Well the program director don't pull it
Then it's bound to get back the bullet
So bring the group down to the station
You're gonna be an overnight sensation

I've been tryin' to write the lyric
Not offensive but satiric, too
If you can get it in the "A" slot
It's just gotta make a mint for you

And I want a hit record
Want to hear it on the radio
Want a big hit record
One that everybody's got to own

Overnight sensation
I fit the words
To a good melody
Amazing how success
Has been ignoring me so long

I've used my bread
Making demos all day
And writing in the night
While in my head I hear
The record play
Hear it play

Hit record, yeah
Want a hit record, yeah
Want a hit record, yeah
(Number one)
Want a hit record, yeah

Let's Pretend

        [ Featuring Eric Carmen ]
    

I can't sleep nights
Wishing you were here beside me
Can't help feeling
That's way it ought to be
You know we could run (run, run) away
And i couldn't bear to hear
The things they'd say
Oh no

[Chorus]
Baby let's pretend
That tonight could live forever
If we close our eyes
And believe it might come true

Baby let's pretend
We could always be together
But for now just let me
Spend the night with you

Somehow, someday
Things are gonna be so different
Don't cry
Some way
I promise it will be all right
So now that we're all alone
I couldn't bear
To ever take you home
Oh no

[Chorus]

Baby let's pretend
We could always live together
But for now just let me
Spend the night with you

So take me now
My love can't wait
We're almost there now darlin'
Darlin' hold me, hold me
Hold me

Baby let's pretend
We could always live together
But for now just let me
Spend the night with you

Drivin' Around

Long hot days we'll be catchin' the rays (oh, baby)
Long hot days we'll be catchin' the rays
You know my tape deck is blastin'
My car's fast
When school lets out and the summer's here
We'll have some time for the sun
Throw my notebooks out and put my car in gear
We'll be having some fun
Drivin' around (long hot days we'll be catchin' the rays)
Oooh, drivin' around (long hot days we'll be catchin' the rays)
You know my tape deck is blastin'
My car's fast
With my girl by my side, we can go for a ride
And find a place we can dance
When it get real dark, we can stop in the park
And have a back seat romance
I'll be waiting all through the year
Just to get you alone with nobody near
Baby don't be late 'cause I just can't wait
All I want to do is make love to you
I'm drivin' around (long hot days we'll be catchin' the rays)
Drivin' around (long hot days we'll be catchin' the rays)

Starting Over

        [ Featuring Eric Carmen ]
    

Used to feel so f*cking optimistic
Till she said goodbye
Never thought a love like ours would die

Told myself I'd never love another
All I want is friends
But when we met I felt it all again

Though I am starting over under cloudy skies
I say hello to love
I'm seeing through different eyes
And if I had the chance to make one wish
And know it would come true
I'd start all over with you

Every evening I would watch the sunset
End another day
Let the nighttime wash my blues away

Buried my romantic inclination
Deep inside of me
Till I fell for you immoderately

Though I am starting over under cloudy skies
I say hello to love
I'm seeing through different eyes
And if I had the chance to make one wish
And know it would come true
I'd start all over with you

I remember all the good times
And the bad times spent together
Why remember all the old times
When the new times look much better

Much better
Though I am starting over under cloudy skies
I say hello to love
I'm seeing through different eyes
And if I had the chance to make one wish
And know it would come true
I'd start all over with you

With you

Don't Want To Say Goodbye

Don't want to drive your love away from me
Don't want to waste your time
You're here and there and far away from me
I'm so alone, it's just a crime
If you could lie here by my side at night
If you could chase away my blues
You'd understand just how it feels at night
To have to stand inside my shoes
Don't want to say goodbye
Don't want to let you see me cry
Still, I don't want you to live a lie
I'm gonna try a little harder
I'm gonna try a little harder
I'm gonna try a little harder
And maybe you'll love me
Don't want to drive your love away from me
Don't want to waste your time
You're here and there and far away from me
I'm so alone, it's just a crime

Raspberries' Best Info:

(buy at amazon.com)

Raspberries' Best Featuring Eric Carmen, more commonly known as Raspberries' Best, is a 1976 compilation album by Raspberries. The album contained songs from each of the group's four LP's, which were recorded between 1972 and 1974. Most of the tracks on this LP were among their seven charting hits. The group had already disbanded when this compilation was released.[citation needed]

Raspberries' Best was well received by critics; Dave Marsh called it "an exquisite anthology of Seventies pop rock that's a throwback to the heyday of the Beatles and Beach Boys", while Robert Christgau said the compilation "performs a needed service by compiling cuts from the group's first two (flawed) albums".
