  • Ooh, yeah, yeah
    Whoa, whoa, whoa
    Whoa, whoa, whoa

    Hey, baby, I'm talking to you
    Stop yourself and listen
    Some things you can never choose
    Even if you try. Yeah
    You're bangin' your head again
    'Cause somebody won't let you in
    One chance, one love
    Your chance to let me know

    We can't go on
    Just running away
    If we stay any longer
    We will surely never get away (oh, whoa)
    Anything you want, we can make it happen
    Stand up and turn around
    Never let them shoot us down
    Never, never
    Never, never run away

    Hey, baby, you know it's true
    Why you bother lying
    When you know that, that you want it too?
    Don't you dare deny me
    Now walk those legs right over here
    Give me what I'm dying for
    One chance, one love
    Hold me down, never let me go

    We can't go on
    Just running away
    If we wait any longer
    We will surely never get away (oh, whoa)
    Anything you want, we can make it happen
    Stand up and turn around
    Never let them shoot us down
    Never, never (no)
    Never, never run away
    Never (no, no), never
    Never (no, no, no, no), never run away

    Hey, baby, I'm talking to you
    Stop yourself and listen
    Some things you can never, never choose
    Even if you try, yeah
    You're bangin' your head again
    'Cause somebody won't let you in
    One chance, one love
    Your chance to let me know

    We can't go on
    Just running away
    If we stay any longer
    We will surely never get away (oh, whoa)
    Never (oh, whoa)
    Never

    We can't go on
    Never
    We can't go on
    Never (oh, whoa)
    (Ne', ne', ne') never
    (Oh, whoa) never, never
    Never
    We can't go on (we can't go on, we can't go on)
    Never
    We can't go on (we can't go, we can't go, we can't go)
    Never (on, baby)
    (Oh, whoa) ne', ne'
    Never (oh, whoa)

  • Left High Kick from Middle Class UsaI was 10 years old when this song came out off their brigade album. Awesome song and good sound.

    My last girlfriend and I went to Miami, Florida back in 2014 or 2015 and I remember I played this song on her iPhone in the room when we were eating take-out food, after getting back from the beach with our robes on.

    That was a great time with her. I felt young and invincible, and that I could let my walls down with her. Hearing this with her brought me back to when I was 10 years old.

    “Anything you want, we can make it happen.”

    I miss those days of yesteryear but that’s life.
  • Heavy D from Los Angeles Awesome song from the 80s. Good memories. Back when the videos were a lot of hair, a lot of make up, a lot of guitars.

    Took a trip to Florida back in 2014 or so with my last girlfriend and we were getting takeout food relaxing by the pool and the beach, and wearing robes and this song came on. We spent most of the vacation in the bedroom and the other half on the beach.

    “Anything you want, we can make it happen...”

    That was a great time with her. I miss those times. I miss her to an extent.

    But time marches on.

    Great song
