VERSE 1:
Busy life, not enough time
To look in the mirror
Life in the fast lane...
Look around and take note
Who really loves you?
Don't get caught up in the clouds
Or you'll go insane
When it seems everyone is needing something
Remember who's always been there for you
CHORUS:
Who loves ya baby?
Who really loves ya baby?
Who's always been on your side morning and night?
Who loves ya baby?
Who really loves ya baby?
Who's gonna see to it that
You're treated right?
VERSE 2:
Just a smile is alright
Don't owe me anything
Come escape with me...[laugh]
You have got the world at your feet
That's not always easy
All those people caring,
Yet you're still alone
I understand what's behind the feelings
I think I know you better than anyone (anyone)
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
I believe in you...yes!
You believe in me too
Don't ever get swept away by something not real
'Cause the way I feel...
Oh I will always feel that way
CHORUS
who loves ya baby?
CHORUS
Oh, who loves ya baby?
Who really loves you, loves you baby?
Oo yeah! (morning and night)
I say, who, who, who (who loves ya baby?)
Who loves ya baby? (who really loves you baby?)
who, who, who (you're treated right)
Who loves ya baby? Yeah! (who loves ya baby?)
Oo yeah! (who really loves you baby?)
Who's always been on your side morning and night?
Who loves ya baby?
Who really loves you baby?
Who's gonna see to it that you're treated right?
Oh, who loves ya baby?
Who has loved you baby?
I've always been on your side (morning and night)
Say, who loves ya baby?
Who really loves you, loves you baby?
(you're treated right)
Who loves ya baby?
(Who really loves you baby?) Who loves ya baby?
Who loves ya baby?
yeah, yeah, yeah...(morning and night)

Lost In Your Eyes
NO MORE RHYME
Debbie Gibson
Electric Youth
Written by: Deborah Gibson
Verse 1:
When the fear sets in
Where the fire burns
Where I find a place
But thre's nowhere to turn
When the evening sings
An eerie song
Longing for the day
You say I'm wrong
Verse 2:
You can find your place
But never fit in
And only when you've left
Do you know where you've been
I can see the light
But only when it's gone
You can go on waiting
But only for so long
Chorus:
I know we are right
It's not always clear
Because I've never felt the fear
Can it stay so good
Forever in time?
I've always felt the rhythm
What happens when there's
NO MORE RHYME
Verse 3:
Can we face ourselves
Like we face eachother?
We've never felt anything
On our own
I can't wait much longer
To feel any danger
I hope we're not living for
A lifetime alone
Chorus
Bridge:
Hard to go on
It's like waiting for
The other shoe to drop
I'll never stop
Believing in you
It's just we never had to sstruggle
It all came too easy
I hope we felt what we felt from the start
We've never suffered a broken heart
We've been so blinded by all the best
We never put our love to the test
Chorus

Love In Disguise
VERSE 1:
I don't know why we had to go
Our love ended with the change of the weather
I know a way to survive
But it would be much better if you were here
'cause we never fell out of love
CHORUS:
There's not a trace of happiness
Why do you think it's all right
when love is in your eyes?
We still live for each other
But still we keep pretending
that there's no love in disguise, in disguise
VERSE 2:
We're playing games like we did before
Now we're feeling the sorrow
but some things just never change
so come on...take me back into your arms
If I remember - you left them open for me
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
After all it took to get together
You would think (you would think)
it would last (it would last)
forever (forever)
CHORUS
There's not a trace of happiness
Why do you think it's all right?
I see love is in your eyes
We still live for each other
But still we keep pretending
that there's no love
there's no, there's no
love in disguise
There's not a trace, there's not a trace
Why do you think it's so wrong
When love is in your eyes?
We still live for each other
But still we keep pretending
that there's no, no love
in disguise, in disguise
I don't know why we had to go
Our love ended with the change of the weather
I know a way to survive
But it would be much better if you were here
'cause we never fell out of love

Helplessly In Love
VERSE 1:
My ears are gonna fade away
Without a word from you
My lips are gonna fade away
Without kissin' you
'Cause I'm missin' you
Can't you see I feel helpless?
So alone here
Out of touch with all I love
So helpless
So helpless in love
VERSE 2:
Forever is so long to wait
Well it seems like forever
It was so much more than fate
that brought us together
together
Don't ya know I
keep counting
the days 'til
I can see you again
So helpless
I'm missin' the love of my life
and my best friend
CHORUS:
Oh, I can't count the stars in the sky
no matter how hard I try
I'm helplessly in love and missin' you
Can't think of anything else
except how hard I feel
I'm helplessly in love and missin' you
VERSE 3:
I know that it's so hard to hear
the voice of reason
It's like goin' from summer to winter
unwanted change of season
It's not pleasin' me baby
I can't see clearly
even though the
sun's been lifted from my eyes
So clearly
'til the day we said goodbye
CHORUS
Can't count the stars in the sky
no matter how hard I try
I'm helplessly in love and missin' you
Can't think of anything else
except how hard I fell
BRIDGE:
I used to wonder if you felt the same
I know you do and now it's a different game
When someone you love's been taken away
Even though it's not for long
it seems like forever and a day
Can't you see I feel helpless?
So alone here
Out of touch with all I love
So helpless
So helpless in love
CHORUS
Can't count the stars in the sky
No matter how hard I try
I'm helplessly in love and missin' you
Can't think of anything else
Except how hard I fell
Can't count the stars in the sky
I'm helplessly in love and missin' you
Can't think of anything else
except how hard I fell
My ears are gonna fade away
Without a word from you
My lips are gonna fade away
Without kissin' you
'Cause I'm missin' you
Can't you see I feel helpless?
So alone here
Out of touch with all I love
So helpless
So helpless in love

Silence Speaks (A Thousand Words)
When I asked you
You said nothing was wrong
But I listened to your magical song
All its notes were gone
You sang it, I heard
Silence speaks a thousand words
You keep telling me
I'll pay the price
For asking you once
And telling you twice
But I paid the day your emotions turned cold
Silence speaks a thousand words
[Chorus]
Where do I turn when you turn away
It's never just the things you say
You never ever put me down
But when I speak you turn around
And saying not much is saying a lot
If you spoke truth
There would be no doubt
But the only words are
"we'll work it out"
Well that's not saying much
You just don't take the time
And that is where I draw the line
[Chorus]
You're sending signals
First of hope then insecurity
Signals of doubt are everywhere
And subconsciously
You know you want to break the ties
But you use silence
You use lies
Don't worry
I'll return your song of silence
Silence speaks a thousand words
Silence speaks a thousand words
You said nothing was wrong
But I listened to your magical song
All its notes were gone
You sang it, I heard
Silence speaks a thousand words
You keep telling me
I'll pay the price
For asking you once
And telling you twice
But I paid the day your emotions turned cold
Silence speaks a thousand words
[Chorus]
Where do I turn when you turn away
It's never just the things you say
You never ever put me down
But when I speak you turn around
And saying not much is saying a lot
If you spoke truth
There would be no doubt
But the only words are
"we'll work it out"
Well that's not saying much
You just don't take the time
And that is where I draw the line
[Chorus]
You're sending signals
First of hope then insecurity
Signals of doubt are everywhere
And subconsciously
You know you want to break the ties
But you use silence
You use lies
Don't worry
I'll return your song of silence

Shouldve Been The One
Well if I looked all over this world
I don't think I would find someone so true
Someone like you
Oh and I know it may be too late
But ya know I cannot wait,
What should I do?
I still love you. Oh
When the stakes all are high
And the odds are all against us
Why do I still keep loving you?
[Chorus]
You know you should've been the one
Our love could've been something new
And now I don't know what to do
Oh, I'll never give up on your love
'Cause you always will be the one
Who brightens everyday
Even though you took my heart away
Ya know it makes no difference to me
'Cause you always will be the one
Well, call me crazy or what you will
It doesn't change the way I'll always feel
'Cause this is real
It's nothing you ever said
It's all those crazy dreams that are in your head
(That are in your head) in your head
Alright now
Here we go
[Chorus]
You know, our love could've been something new
And now I don't know what to do
Because you always will be the one
Who brightens everyday
Even though you took my heart away
Ya know it makes no difference to me
You know our love could've been something new
And now I don't know what to do
Oh, I'll never give up on your love
'Cause you always will be the one
Who brightens everyday
Even though you took my heart away
Ya know it makes no difference to me
'Cause you always will be the one!
I don't think I would find someone so true
Someone like you
Oh and I know it may be too late
But ya know I cannot wait,
What should I do?
I still love you. Oh
When the stakes all are high
And the odds are all against us
Why do I still keep loving you?
[Chorus]
You know you should've been the one
Our love could've been something new
And now I don't know what to do
Oh, I'll never give up on your love
'Cause you always will be the one
Who brightens everyday
Even though you took my heart away
Ya know it makes no difference to me
'Cause you always will be the one
Well, call me crazy or what you will
It doesn't change the way I'll always feel
'Cause this is real
It's nothing you ever said
It's all those crazy dreams that are in your head

Alright now
Here we go

You know, our love could've been something new
And now I don't know what to do

Oh, I'll never give up on your love
'Cause you always will be the one
Who brightens everyday
Even though you took my heart away
Ya know it makes no difference to me
'Cause you always will be the one!

No More Rhyme
When the fear sets in
Where the fire burns
Where I find a place
But there's nowhere to turn
When the evening sings
An eerie song
Longing for the day
You say I'm wrong
You can find your place
But never fit in
And only when you've left
Do you know where you've been
I can see the light
But only when it's gone
You can go on waiting
But only for so long
I know we are right
It's not always clear
Because I've never felt the fear
Can it stay so good
Forever in time?
I've always felt the rhythm
What happens when there's
No more rhyme
Can we face ourselves
Like we face each other?
We've never felt anything
On our own
I can't wait much longer
To feel any danger
I hope we're not living for
A lifetime alone
I know we are right
It's not always clear
Because I've never felt the fear
Can it stay so good
Forever in time?
I've always felt the rhythm
What happens when there's
No more rhyme
Hard to go on
It's like waiting for
The other shoe to drop
I'll never stop
Believing in you
It's just we never had to struggle
It all came too easy
I hope we felt what we felt from the start
We've never suffered a broken heart
We've been so blinded by all the best
We never put our love to the test
I know we are right
It's not always clear
Because I've never felt the fear
Can it stay so good
Forever in time?
I've always felt the rhythm
What happens when there's
No more rhyme
Where the fire burns
Where I find a place
But there's nowhere to turn
When the evening sings
An eerie song
Longing for the day
You say I'm wrong
You can find your place
But never fit in
And only when you've left
Do you know where you've been
I can see the light
But only when it's gone
You can go on waiting
But only for so long
I know we are right
It's not always clear
Because I've never felt the fear
Can it stay so good

I've always felt the rhythm

Over The Wall
VERSE 1:
We can play it safe
for awhile
if we can
But will that make me a better girl,
You a better man?
I trust myself
and that's all I can do
Don't you see the world is alive and
right in front of you...
CHORUS:
Over the wall
there is a new world waiting
Over the wall
I want to find out something more
Over the wall
I cannot wait to find it
Over the wall is where I want to be
Come take my hand and
We can be free
VERSE 2:
Fear of the unknown
is unhealthy to the soul
But it eats you up inside
if you don't have a higher goal
You see no light
on the dark side of the sun
What do you think about when
everyday is over and done?
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
And when the darkness comes
you'll still have a long road
in front of you
and when you cry out
all the world will be around (world will be around)
It won't be easy
but it will have greater rewards
Mountains and valleys
are better than nothing at all...
CHORUS
CHORUS
Over the wall
there is a new world - oh...
Over the wall
I want to find out something more
Over the wall
I cannot wait to find it
Over the wall is where I want to be
Come take my hand
Dontcha know it, we can be free
Over the wall
Over the wall
Over the wall
I cannot wait to find it...
We can play it safe
for awhile
if we can
But will that make me a better girl,
You a better man?
I trust myself
and that's all I can do
Don't you see the world is alive and
right in front of you...
CHORUS:

We Could Be Together
VERSE 1:
If I were an only child
I would be a lonely child
but baby we've got nothing to lose
I'm standing tall in my own shoes
I'll take this chance
I'll make this choice
I'll right this wrong
I'll raise my voice
if it means
We'll be together
for a while
VERSE 2:
I have never had a doubt
But for you I'll take time out
I'll push his love far away from me
and then I'll be completely free
I'll give up my security
for just the possibility
that we could be together
for a while
CHORUS:
If you said "Jump!" I'd say "How high?"
If you said "Run!" I'd run and fly
Just for the chance
Just for the moment
Should the moment pass us by
and if you ask once I'll tell you twice
I'll ignore the world's advice
if we could be together
for a while
VERSE 3:
I am taken by your strength
I've thought about it at great length
I thought that I was happy now
but there are things that I found out
Happiness means greater things
I'll sit here 'til that telephone rings
then we could be together
for a while
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
Wait'll I tell my guy (wait'll I tell)
Wait'll I tell my other friends
They'll all think I'm crazy-
and ya know what?
That depends...
'cause I'm crazy in love
with you
and everyone's best won't do
They'll say my hopes
will not come true
But I'm taking the chance
Because you only live once-
Only live once (only live once)
And...
If you said "Jump!" I'd say "How high?"
If you said "Run!" You know I'd fly
Just for the chance
Just for the moment
Should the moment pass us by
and if you ask once I'll tell you twice
I'll ignore the world's advice
if we could be together
for a while
BRIDGE:
There are no guarantees
but if it means
there's even a possibility
then I'll give up whatever it takes
I know I've made some mistakes before
It may be just another closed door
But we could be together
for a while
If you said "Jump!" I'd say "How high?"
If you said "Run!" I'd run and fly
Just for the chance
Just for the moment
Should the moment pass us by
Ask me once I'll tell you twice,
You know I'll ignore the world's advice
if we could be together
for a while
CHORUS
Don't you know that we could be together
for a while.
If I were an only child
I would be a lonely child
but baby we've got nothing to lose
I'm standing tall in my own shoes
I'll take this chance
I'll make this choice

CHORUS
BRIDGE:
Wait'll I tell my guy (wait'll I tell)
Wait'll I tell my other friends
They'll all think I'm crazy-
and ya know what?
That depends...
'cause I'm crazy in love
with you
and everyone's best won't do
They'll say my hopes
will not come true
But I'm taking the chance
Because you only live once-
Only live once (only live once)
And...
If you said "Jump!" I'd say "How high?"
If you said "Run!" You know I'd fly
Just for the chance
Just for the moment
Should the moment pass us by
and if you ask once I'll tell you twice
I'll ignore the world's advice
if we could be together
for a while
BRIDGE:
There are no guarantees
but if it means
there's even a possibility
then I'll give up whatever it takes
I know I've made some mistakes before
It may be just another closed door
But we could be together
for a while
If you said "Jump!" I'd say "How high?"
If you said "Run!" I'd run and fly
Just for the chance
Just for the moment
Should the moment pass us by
Ask me once I'll tell you twice,
You know I'll ignore the world's advice
if we could be together
for a while
CHORUS
Don't you know that we could be together
for a while.

Shades Of The Past
Red as the roses come
My love it never was
Dark as the evening sky
We let love pass us by
I was caught in the middle
Somewhere in the gray
Now it's time to leave that all behind
My uncertain yesterdays
[Chorus]
Now it's black or white
Now it's wrong or right
I can't live without you here
Shades of the past are long gone
I've got one thing on my mind...
There's a choice to make
There'll be no mistake
The time has come around
I'm leaving no middle ground
Let my heart be the only sound
Pink is not red or white
But you brought me pink roses tonight
And I got to thinking to myself
Oh the time is right
A promise is stronger
Than a whisper
So I say "goodbye" to our yesterdays
And leave behind those shades of gray
[x3]
Let my heart be the only, only sound
(black or white, wrong or right)
Oh there's a choice to make
There'll be no mistake
The time has come around
I'm leaving no middle ground
Let my heart be the only (only) sound
My love it never was
Dark as the evening sky
We let love pass us by
I was caught in the middle
Somewhere in the gray
Now it's time to leave that all behind
My uncertain yesterdays
[Chorus]
Now it's black or white
Now it's wrong or right
I can't live without you here
Shades of the past are long gone
I've got one thing on my mind...
There's a choice to make
There'll be no mistake
The time has come around
I'm leaving no middle ground
Let my heart be the only sound
Pink is not red or white
But you brought me pink roses tonight
And I got to thinking to myself
Oh the time is right
A promise is stronger
Than a whisper
So I say "goodbye" to our yesterdays
And leave behind those shades of gray
[x3]
Let my heart be the only, only sound
(black or white, wrong or right)
Oh there's a choice to make
There'll be no mistake
The time has come around
I'm leaving no middle ground
Let my heart be the only (only) sound

Electric Youth is the second studio album by American singer-songwriter Debbie Gibson, released on January 24, 1989, by Atlantic Records. It is the highest-charting album of Gibson's career, staying at the top of the US Billboard 200 albums chart for five weeks, and reaching number 8 on the UK Albums Chart.
As with her debut album, Out of the Blue, all tracks were written by Gibson, and she single-handedly produced six of the tracks. She was also given half of the production credits on one track alongside Fred Zarr who produced the other four. The album, like her first, contains mainly bubblegum-pop songs, though other, more mature styles are touched upon.
Electric Youth spawned four singles, the first being "Lost in Your Eyes," which became her second No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and stayed there for three weeks. "Electric Youth", the album's title track, just missed the Top 10, reaching No. 11. "No More Rhyme" followed, ending its run at No. 17, and "We Could Be Together" charted at No. 71.
