(...)
I've been to Rome, Dallas, Texas
Man, I thought I'd seen it all
Around the world, search in every corner
Man, I thought I'd hit the wall
There's a sleepy town, south of the Border
If you go there once, you'll be there twice
Lots of pretty girls, coming by the dozens
The white sand sure makes a tan look nice
We can crash on the beach
You know I wanna make love in the sea
We gotta try a little dance, so Cabo Wabo
It's alright by me
Come on, let me take you down
I will show you around
Let me take you down
Face down in Cabo
Kissing the ground
Land's end, you'd have to see it
Ain't no picture ever say it right
Walkin' the streets doing that ole, the Cabo Wabo
Place comes to life every night
I wanna crash on the beach
You know I wanna make love in the sea
It's all right there
We don't have to chase it
Fits paradise to a T
Come on, let me take you down
I will show you around
Let me take you down
Face down in Cabo
Kissing the ground
We drink Mescal right from the bottle
Salt shaker, little lick a lime, ohhh
Throwin' down, down tryin' to reach the bottom
Where the guave worm, well he's mine all mine
Come on, crash on the beach
You know I wanna make love in the sea
Go try a little dance, so Cabo Wabo
It's alright by me
Let me take you down
I will show you around
Let me take you down
Face down in Cabo
Kissing the ground
Face down,
Down in Cabo
Take me down,
Down to Cabo
Face down,
Down in Cabo
Doin' the Cabo Wabo
Take me down,
Down to Cabo
Come on, get it, get it

Got me a date with a supermodel. Ha ha ha
I know, I know I figured "Fuck it"
Dinner at the hotel, champagne bottle
Steak and potatoes, a feather in a bucket

Tell me what is it we're pretendin'?
Not to know, and who needs proof?
I don't need so much to remember
No, no. That's how it is, when you tell the truth
Woo!

How many times does somebody lie
'Til patience (Ahh-ahh-ahh) runs her course?
Keep that in mind, when we say goodbye
'Cuz you can't (Ahh-ahh-ahh) get this stuff no more

That's the thing about self-improvement
Don't get me wrong, I plan on gettin' some soon
Outside the wire somethin's movin'
The barn burnt down now I can see the moon

A slice at a time, like a pizza pie
You (Ahh-ahh-ahh) serve up the truth, don't want it anymore
Keep that in mind, when we say goodbye
'Cuz you can't (Ahh-ahh-ahh) get this stuff no more

(Guitar Solo)

Woo!

How many times does somebody lie
'Fore (Ahh-ahh-ahh) patience runs her course?
Keep that in mind when we say goodbye
'Cuz you can't (Ahh-ahh-ahh) get this stuff no more

(A slice at a time) Wha-oh yeah!

Wha-oh! (Ahh-ahh-ahh) Can't get that stuff no more!
Better keep that in mind! (Keep it in mind)
When we say our goodbyes
'Cuz you can't get this stuff no more-ah!

Not this stuff baby

(...)
Hey!

There's a time and place for everything. For everyone
We can push with all our might, but nothin's gonna come
Oh no, nothin's gonna change
An' if I ask you not to try, oh could you let it be?

I wanna hold you and say
We can't throw this all away
Tell me you won't go, you won't go
You have to hear me say

I can't stop lovin' you (Ooooo)
And no matter (Ooo-ooo-ooo) what I say or do
You know (Ooo-ooo-ooo) my heart is true, oh
(Ooo-ooo-ooo) I can't stop lovin' you

You can change your friends, your place in life
You can change your mind
We can change the things we say, and do any time
Oh no, but I think you'll find
That when you look inside your heart
Oh baby, I'll be there. Yeah!

Hold on. I'm holdin' on
Baby, just come on, come on, come on
I just wanna hear you say

I can't stop lovin' you (Ooooo)
And no matter (Ooo-ooo-ooo) what you say or do
You know (Ooo-ooo-ooo) my heart is true, oh-oh!
I can't (Ooo-ooo-ooo) stop lovin' you

Oh, I'm so twisted and tied
And all I remember, was how hard we tried
Only to surrender

(Guitar Solo)

(Ahh-ahh) And when it's over
(Ahhh-ahh) I know how it's gonna be
And true love will never die
Or, not fade away

And I can't (Ooo-ooo-ooo) stop lovin' you
And no matter (Ooo-ooo-ooo) what I say or do
You know (Ooo-ooo-ooo) my heart is true, oh
I can't (Ooo-ooo-ooo) stop lovin' you

And I know (Ooo-ooo-ooo) what I got to do
Hey Ray, what you said is true, oh
I can't (Ooo-ooo-ooo) stop lovin' you, oh no
(Ooo-ooo-ooo)
Oh, can't (Ooo-ooo-ooo) stop lovin' you

song list next song previous song Van Halen: Women & Children First Could This Be Magic?
(...)
Out upon the islands on a cool summer night,
buddy, you don't got to hurry.  Take your time.
What you need is on the menu and you get it tonight.
Buddy, you got womens on your mind.

Could this be magic,
or could this be love?
Could this turn tragic?
You know that magic often does.

And I see lonely ships upon the water.
Better save the women and children first.
Sail away with someone's daughter.
Better save the women and children first.

I hear music on the landin', and there's laughter in the air.
Just could be your boat is comin' in.
Yeah, you're leanin' back, and your foot's tappin' and you got your head right.
There's a full moon out tonight.  Baby, let's begin.

Could this be magic,
or could this be love?
Could this turn tragic?
You know that magic often does.

And I see lonely ships upon the water.
Better save the women and children first.
Sail away with someone's daughter.
Better save the women and children first.
song list Van Halen: Letter D previous song Van Halen: Balance Crossing Over
(...)
I reach across to the other side
To make contact with you
Though in slumber you fill my dreams
And I make contact with you
Don't ask me why I'm crossing over

Oh, crossing over....

I never got to really know you
The way I want to now
So many things I didn't tell you
I wanna tell you now
Tell me why, oh Lord, you're crossing over

(I gotta come back to see your face)
Oh, crossing over
(I wanna hear you call my name, feel your touch)
Reaching out, reaching out
(Hear your voice again)
(To hear your voice again)
Crossing over
(To feel your touch)
Reaching out
(To feel you)
Crossing over
(To feel)
Reaching out, reaching out
Crossing over
