I'd like to get the lyrics of old Meat Loaf's songs (like Surf's Up, Two Out Of
Three Ain't Bad, Fallen Angel, etc.). Does anybody know a good Web-Site or
ftp-site to find this stuff?

Thanks

Pako Martin

There's a link to a Meat Loaf lyrics site at The Lyrics Library.

Nope. But here are the lyrics to:

TWO OUT OF THREE AIN'T BAD

Baby we can talk all night
But that ain't getting us nowhere
I told you everything I possibly can
There's nothing left inside of here

And maybe you can cry all night
But that'll never change the way that I feel
The snow is really piling up outside
I wish you wouldn't make me leave here

I poured it on and I poured it out
I tried toshow you just how much I care
I'm tired of words and I'm too hoarse to shout
But you've been cold to me so long
I'm crying icicles instead of tears

And all I can do is keep on telling you
I want you
I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
'Cause two out of three ain't bad
Now don't be sad
'Cause two out of three ain't bad

You'll never find your gold on a sandy beach
You'll never drill for oil on a city street
I know you're looking for a ruby in a mountain of rocks
But there ain't no Coupe de Ville hiding at the bottom of a Cracker
Jack box

I can't lie
I can't tell you that I'm something I'm not
No matter how I try
I'll never be able
To give you something
Something that I just haven't got

There's only one girl that I will ever love
And that was so many years ago
And though I know I'll never get her out of my heart
She never loved me back
Ooh I know
I remember how she left me on a stormy night
She kissed me and got out of our bed
And though I pleaded and I begged her not to walk
out that door
She packed her bags and turned right away

And she kept on telling me
She kept on telling me
She kept on telling me
I want you
I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
'Cause two out of three ain't bad
Don't be sad
'Cause two out of three ain't bad

Baby we can talk all night
But that ain't getting us nowhere.....

artist you are searching for

Here are the lyrics to Surf's Up (Clipped from the Lyrics Archive)


SURF'S UP


The waves are poundin' on the sand tonight
I want to take your hand and make it feel so right
I know I'm ready and I'll never be like this again
And the sky is trembling and the moon is pale
We're on the edge of forever and we're never gonna fail
I know you're ready and we're runnin' on the back of the wind

Chorus: [
And my body is burnin' like a naked wire
I wanna turn on the juice, I wanna fall in the fire
I'm gonna drown in the ocean in a bottomless sea
I'm gonna give you what I'm hopin' you'll be givin' to me
And when the waves are poundin' on the sand tonight
I wanna take your hand and make it good and make it right
Now the sky is trembling and the moon is pale
We're on the edge of forever and we're never gonna fail

How hard, how hard, how hard do I gotta try (I want all of your love)
Surf's up (I need it so bad), surf's up (I need it so bad)
Surf's up and so am I (I gotta give you some love)
Surf's up and so am I
]

(Solo)

(chorus)

Surf's up and so am I, surf's up and so am I
