One By One
Fernande McNabb/John Donald
Who am I to say, what’s right or wrong
I threw it all away, find out what makes me strong
I’ve watched them walk away, one by one
It always ends the same
Looks like I’ll be moving on
Save your good advice for someone
I’m not you
I’m going where this music takes me to
One by one, by one
Save your good advice for someone
I’m not you
I’m going where this music takes me to
One by one, by one

No Strings
Fernande McNabb/John Donald
This Wednesday’s child is over you
Woe is me, I fell for you
That dream you had, it wasn’t true
I never was the one for you
With no strings you want the best parts of me
You can’t give, but you want to receive
With no strings you played me fine
You’re not entitled to a love like mine
This lonely woman will sing the blues
Tell your friends that I never knew
Have a laugh, maybe one, maybe two
That I was lonesome over you

Nothing Else I Need
Fernande McNabb/John Donald
Don’t cry for me my love
I don’t regret
The time I’ve taken
I can’t say goodbye
It feels as though,
My heart is breaking
I have lived my life
I won’t lament
the love I’ve given
For you are the one
That has made
my life worth living
Chorus
I will take your memory
There is nothing else I need
I will always be
Forever in your thoughts
and on your shoulder
You won’t be alone
When sun won’t shine
And winter is colder

Take Me Under
Fernande McNabb/John Donald
I asked you nicely, you told a lie
The way you’re acting baby, I’m not surprised
I’m aware of your undercover pseudonym
You’re playing a dirty game that you can never win
I gave you every opportunity
To look me in the eyes
Who on earth are you to think
This is right?
It might seem too good, too good to be true
It probably is and that’s the unwritten rule
Don’t jump in with both feet, until you know it’s true
Take my advice and don’t go acting like a fool
Chorus
You tried to steal my thunder
You’ve got a lot of nerve,
But you won’t take me under, take me under

You Know Me Better
Fernande McNabb
You’re still here, hanging on my shoulder
I can always count on you
You’ve always got, something to say
Make me want to smile too
Chorus
Your body moves, hold me closer
You know me better, you know me better
We’ve had late nights, sometimes quarrels
But you never bring me down
I’ve got to say, you know me better
Than any man around
Chorus

Lethal Beauty
Fernande McNabb/John Donald
She comes sneaking in with the blowing wind
You’d better run for cover
One thing’s for sure she’s got no heart
And I know she’s got no soul
Chorus
She’s a lethal beauty
Got her eye on you
Don’t you be a fool
She comes striking fear In the hearts of men
Caught inside her turns you’ll never win
One thing’s for sure she’s got no heart
And I know she’s got no soul
Chorus
She’s a lethal beauty
Got her eye on you
Don’t you be a fool

Words
Fernande McNabb
I am the words in a song
I wonder will you remember me
I hear the stories that you tell
I see the understanding in your eyes
I am the words
I pretend to act upon a stage
Anticipation in the air
I touch the strings with curious hands
I worry about lost and lonely people
I am the words
Chorus
I’ll help you tell them how you feel
And I’ll try to keep it real
They’re hanging on my every word
Can you hear me loud and clear
I understand the happiness and pain
I say a song can soothe your soul
I try to really make it count
Give me an audience of thousands
I am the words
Chorus
I’ll help you tell them how you feel
And I’ll try to keep it real
They’re hanging on my every word
Can you hear me loud and clear
