Love You Like Dynamite
(Alice Olsen)
I'm gonna love you like the ocean,
Unpredictable and wild.
And like those waves I've got the motion,
And some moves to make you smile.
I'm gonna love you like thunder,
Lightening streaking cross the sky.
And in my arms your gonna wonder,
How we ever got so high.
Chorus:
I'm gonna LOVE YOU LIKE DYNAMITE,
We'll be rocking all through the night,
So you'd better hang on real tight,
I'm gonna LOVE YOU LIKE DYNAMITE.
LIKE DYNAMITE,
DYNAMITE.
I'm gonna love you like fire,
Heating up from just one spark,
Fed by passion and desire,
'Til we're lighting up the dark.
And then I'll love you like an earthquake,
Cataclysmic to the core,
Guaranteed to make your world shake,
I won't leave you wanting more.
Repeat Chorus
Loving you is all I want to do.
Day or night it always feels so right.
You and me, that's how we're meant to be,
Can't you see, can't you see.
Repeat Chorus twice

Doing The Best That I Can
(Alice Olsen)
This house is too big for one broken heart,
That's lonesome and feeling torn up.
I see you everywhere from our bed to your chair,
To your "have a nice day" coffee cup.
And each one's a pain that reminds me again,
Of how I'm so lost without you.
I wish you were here to laugh at my fears,
And tell me what I need to do.
Chorus:
So I'm planting the garden and plumbing the sink,
Trying to keep busy so there's no time to think,
Cause if I do, it will be about you,
And that hurts more than I can stand.
I'm just DOING THE BEST THAT I CAN.
I'm just DOING THE BEST THAT I CAN.
The day that you died was the worst in my life,
There's no getting over that.
Now I'm taking each day one step at a time,
Two forward and sometimes three back.
Without you everything's unfamiliar and new,
I miss you at every turn.
This life on my own, and being alone,
It's a lesson that I hate to learn.
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
And I call up our friends or I go for a ride,
Trying to escape what I feel deep inside,
But you know that there's never a place I can hide,
From the tears I never cried.
Repeat Chorus
Tag:
They say time heal all things,
I hope that's really true,
For now I'm DOING THE BEST THAT I CAN,
Learning to live without you.

Bad, Bad Way
(Alice Olsen)
Woke up this morning and you were gone,
All that you left me was a sad, sad song.
No good bye letter, no last words were said,
You broke my heart and left me here for dead.
Chorus:
I've got you in a BAD, BAD WAY,
Without you I don't know what to say,
I walk around in a daze all day,
I've got you in a BAD, BAD WAY.
This restless feeling's got me going mad.
You were the worst thing that I ever had.
But I still crave you, yah, I need your touch.
You are the sickness that I love so much.
Repeat Chorus
Ain't no cure for heartache,
Healing just takes time.
I only wish there was a way,
To get you off my mind.
Repeat Chorus

Youless
(Alice Olsen)
Verse One:
I met you in the bookstore,
By the stack marked relationships,
A sign like that should have been a clue.
I've been down this road before,
Never been an easy trip,
But I thought this time might be different with you.
I used up a box of tissues,
Ben and Jerry were my best friends,
When you told me you had issues,
And you wouldn't be coming back again.
Chorus:
But now, I know,
Your love was never true,
There was no me and you,
I was totally clueless.
And now, I'm sure,
Life's better without you,
And there's no doubt, it's true,
I'm happy here just being,
YOU-LESS.
Verse Two:
I curled up on the sofa,
Watching Oprah and Dr. Phil,
That light bulb moment made me see,
Your love for me was over,
My life was my free will,
And what we'd had was a fantasy.
I threw out that box of tissues,
I went dancing with my best friends.
Couldn't care about your issues,
Cause I'm busy just living my life again.
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
If you think I'll wait 'til you come back someday,
Better think again, there's no way. 'cause ...
Repeat Chorus

A Long Legged Woman
(Alice Olsen)
A LONG LEGGED WOMAN is a joy for a man to watch,
With moves as smooth as a shot of well aged scotch.
Her hips, they slip and slide and glide,
As they sway from side to side.
A LONG LEGGED WOMAN is a joy for a man to watch.
A big hearted woman makes a man feel right at home.
She's not the kind to sigh or weep or moan.
She'll press you to her chest real tight,
And you can guess the rest's alright.
A big hearted woman makes a man feel right at home.
A brick house woman has a body built to last,
So sweet it makes a strong man's pulse run fast.
She takes the wear and tear of time,
And she still comes out looking fine.
A brick house woman has a body built to last.
But A LONG LEGGED WOMAN is a joy for a man to watch.
He drinks her in like a shot of well aged scotch.
The way she walks makes her body talk,
And what it says makes grown men gawk.
A LONG LEGGED WOMAN is a joy for a man to watch.

Bad End
(Alice Olsen
Six feet under isn't deep enough,
For a man who breaks a heart in love.
You set the hook then reeled me in,
Made your catch then threw me back again.
Here today and gone tomorrow,
Trading my heart for a heap of sorrow.
Easy come and easy go,
Goes both ways now don't you know.
Ooh, better watch your back,
Ooh, if you're coming back.
'Cause ...
Chorus:
There's a BAD END waiting for you.
Won't be pretty when I'm through.
You can beg but it's still true,
There's a BAD END waiting for you.
I'll be ready on the day we meet,
To find out if revenge is sweet.
It's no use now trying to hide,
There's avenging angels on my side.
So cross your heart and say your prayers,
Before you meet the man downstairs.
You got no cause to wonder why,
It'll be hot on the day you die.
Ooh, boy you'd better run.
Ooh, and you thought you'd have some fun ... ha!
But ...
Repeat Chorus
How many others have you treated this way?
How many hearts did you lead astray?
How many times did you betray,
And still been the one that got away?
Not this time!
'Cause ...
Repeat Chorus
Waiting for you,
Yeh I'm waiting for you ... ha ha ha!

Love Of Mine
(Alice Olsen & Bob Lawyer)
Night has come, the hard day is over.
Lay your head upon my shoulder.
Everything will be just fine,
When I hold you, LOVE OF MINE.
Chorus:
LOVE OF MINE, oh, LOVE OF MINE,
I'll be your rock through all of time.
LOVE OF MINE, oh, LOVE OF MINE,
Lean on me, oh, LOVE OF MINE.
Let me take your cares from you.
I have strength enough for two.
Safe with me you can unwind,
While I hold you, LOVE OF MINE.
Repeat Chorus
Come to bed, the night is getting late.
Rest, relax, you know the world can wait.
When you wake you still will find,
I'll be there oh, LOVE OF MINE.

Jonesin' For Lovin'
(Alice Olsen)
The taste of your kiss lingers on my lips,
With the memory of your hands sliding down my hips.
These echos of desire rock me to my core,
I can't get enough of you, I just keep wanting more.
Chorus:
I'm JONESIN',
JONESIN' FOR LOVIN',
JONESIN' FOR LOVIN',
It's true.
I need a fix,
I need it real quick,
I'm JONESIN' FOR LOVIN'
From you.
Shaking and feverish I'm desperate for your touch,
This pounding in my heart says we've been apart too much.
The minutes pass like hours until I hold you tight,
I crave those sweet sensations, come and take me through the night.
Repeat Chorus
Do you share this dangerous addiction?
Is it love or is it only fiction?
Hooked on you I'm helpless to be free.
I depend on you to feed my need.
Repeat Chorus
Tag:
I'm JONESIN' FOR LOVIN'
From you.
I'm JONESIN' FOR LOVIN'
From you.

Baby, You've Got Style
(Alice Olsen)
I like the way you comb your hair,
The way you move with a casual air,
Looking at you always makes me smile,
BABY, YOU GOT STYLE.
I like the way you wear your clothes,
And punctuate with an elegant pose.
Like Cleopatra floating down the Nile,
BABY, YOU GOT STYLE.
It's in your walk,
And the way you talk,
The things you choose,
From your head down to your shoes.
I like the way you make me feel,
It's got to be that sex appeal.
Don't stop the show, don't change the dial.
BABY, YOU GOT STYLE.
It's in your walk,
And the way you talk,
The things you choose,
From your head down to your shoes.
There's nothing you can say or do,
Would make me want to change my view.
To be with you I'd swim a mile,
BABY, YOU GOT STYLE.
Yeh, BABY, YOU GOT STYLE.

You Were Here
( Alice Olsen)
And though your light has dimmed and now it's dark,
When you were here you know you left your mark,
A life so full that moved so many hearts,
Will never truly end.
A string of memories of little things,
The times we laughed and all the songs we'd sing,
Will take some of the pain out of the sting,
Till I see you again.
Chorus:
YOU WERE HERE,
Changing everything you touched,
Loving everyone so much.
YOU WERE HERE,
In the time you had to live,
You gave all you had to give.
And we'll never really be apart,
'Cause it's written in my heart,
YOU WERE HERE.
And as this darkness turns to endless night,
I feel your love surround and hold me tight,
And in my dreams I know I'll see the light,
Of your loving smile.
And even if this chapter's at its end,
It doesn't take that much now to pretend,
I'll find you waiting for me 'round the bend,
In just a little while.
Repeat Chorus
Knowing you're standing close to me,
I will always see,
Repeat Chorus
