Can't Stop 02:50
Can't Stop Can’t stop thinking about you girl Can’t stop thinking about you babe Can’t stop thinking about you All the time I have these dreams of me holding you tight On my mind, You’re always there I see you all the time I can’t let go (can’t let go) The feelings show Everything good goes bad But I keep holding in Can’t stop thinking about you girl Can’t stop thinking about you babe Can’t stop thinking about you Alright I played the fool Its not the first time All my life I searched for you Only to find you wanted another (That’s what you wanted) And I wouldn’t compete I only wanted to love you Is that so damn wrong? Can’t stop thinking about you girl Can’t stop thinking about you babe Can’t stop thinking about you Can’t stop thinking about you Can’t stop thinking about you Can’t stop thinking about you Can’t stop thinking about you Can’t stop thinking about you Can’t stop thinking about you Can’t stop thinking about you Can’t stop thinking about you

Forever In Her Heart Doesn't it matter where we’ve been? And doesn’t it feel like we are starting over again? Too many times We’ve been there before Knock, knock knockin’ on love’s door What is right? What is wrong? Cheryl, you’re all I’m not Don’t let it end Forever in her heart Runaway babe What will it prove? Every door I open leads me back to you What’s on your mind? I want to understand Please, please Please darling let it show Maybe I’m not always right I try the best I can I’ll always be the man Forever in her heart Forever in her heart I’m just afraid Don’t ask me why Maybe I’m just tired Lost within your dreams Forever in her heart Forever in her heart Forever in her heart Forever in her heart

Breakin' Up 05:07
Breakin Up You and I We always disagree Married life has taken its toll on me I took a vow I gave her my heart And now those words They come back to me It’s not that I don’t love you ‘Cause I do I’m really ashamed I hurt you That’s not the way it’s supposed to be I’m really sorry baby I know that we’re through Breakin up is hard to do Life goes back to a dream I can’t escape her feel no no no Just like a shadow over me Will the light ever shine true honesty? So this is life alone without you So many things I miss like your kiss or your hand next to mine everyday It’s all for the best I tell myself I won’t make promises I can’t keep Too many lies love lies deep But breakin up is hard to do Still in love with you Still in love with you I’m still in love with you yeah Look at my life Where will it end? Take a good look at my life Still in love with you (You know I’m) Still in love with you (Yeah Yeah) Still in love with you (You’re killing me) Still in love with you

Morning Light Every night you say you want to take me to the limit And that’s not fair I’ve been searching for so long for someone like you And now I’m scared Will you hold me tonight when things aren’t right But will you want me in the morning light? Morning light Every time I think of nothing but the worst And that’s not cool It’s all wrong It’s not the way I planned this to be Somehow I lost control And now I find that you changed your mind! And will you want me in the morning light? Morning light! Ooh the light it flows from you Ooh the light it flows from you Ooh the light it flows from you And now I find that you changed your mind And will you want me in the morning light Morning light (You don’t want me anymore) Morning light (I got to get near you) Morning light Morning light Morning light Morning light (I got to get near you) Morning light (I’ll always love you) Morning light

Don’t Hold Bak (Tell me How You Feel) You’ve got a strange way of saying how you feel about me There’s no use in playing All these jealous games of ours And I know that it’s true But I’ve got to say I’m in love with you Yes I know that it’s wrong But I’ve got to know if our love’s still strong And I want to be with you tonight Every moment I’m with you I’ll try to keep it together You know this hurting has got to stop Let’s make our love last forever And I know that it’s true But I’ve got to say I’m in love with you Yes I know that it’s wrong But I’ve got to know if our love’s still strong And I want to be with you tonight Don't hold back (Tell me how you feel) There’s no holding back (Tell me how you feel) And I know that it’s true But I’ve got to say I’m in love with you Yes I know that it’s wrong But I’ve got to know if our love’s still strong And I want to be with you tonight Yes I want to be with you tonight Yes I want to be with you tonight Don’t hold back (Tell me how you feel) Don’t hold back (Tell me how you feel) Don’t hold back (Tell me how you feel) Don’t hold back (Tell me how you feel) Don’t hold back

Liar 03:38
Liar All of the time when I’m alone I have this feeling in my heart Why did you lie? Why did you hurt me? I know you don’t love me It will never be the same between the two of us I’m not to blame what does it matter? Liar I don’t want to feel the way I feel about you Liar I don’t want to feel the way I feel about you This burning inside won’t ever end I can’t deny it Time won’t erase the things that you’ve done But you say you still love me I’ll never be the same You really hurt me girl I’m not to blame But what does it matter? Liar I don’t want to feel the way I feel about you Liar I don’t want to feel the way I feel about you Liar I don’t want to feel the way I feel about you Liar I don’t want to feel the way I feel about you ‘Cause that’s the way I feel about you Yes it’s the way I feel about you That is the way I feel about you ‘cause that’s the way

Pale White Stare You want me to be one of your victims I’m sorry to say It’ll never happen Oh I’m not impressed by your talk and your fashion But there’s a physical attraction I want you tonight Pale white stare was her only reaction Fashion plate passion play Fashion plate passion play It wasn’t so hard to break through your protection You let down your guard and I moved right in Oh I conquered the queen but her mate always dies It was worth the pain just for the satisfaction Pale white stare was her only reaction Get it any way passion play Get it any way passion play Pale white stare was her only reaction Fashion plate passion play Fashion plate passion play Get it any way passion play Get it any way passion play
8.
Seems so Foolish Maybe baby tonight We won’t have to play this game for long ‘Cause I’m so tired of all this hurt and foolish pain Maybe we could talk about it And this time maybe We could talk without shouting It all seems so foolish to me I always let my pride Oh it always gets the best of me And you, you always talk but you never say anything at all There comes a time for a change We’re too old for playing foolish games It all seems so foolish to me It’s not too late I’ve seen things this bad work out before And I can’t face another heartbreak can’t take it anymore Why? Why do things seem so strange? Hidden feelings but they’re still the same It all seems so foolish to me Just try to understand I am what I am I’m just a man ooh ooh Is this the end? Will I ever see you girl Will I ever touch your lips again? It’s hard to forget love that’s true It all seems so foolish to me Just try to understand I am what I am I’m just a man Don’t leave me standing all alone I’m on my knees

Where did the Love Go Tonight I’ve got to let her know that I’m leaving can’t explain Oh, it hurts me to try Memories They fill out my days Can’t fill up my nights It’ll be hard What are tears for? If I leave tonight I’ll be gone before the morning light And I won’t have to explain It’s not that I don’t want to hold you Maybe I’m scared of loving you It’s not that I don’t want to see you Maybe I just need some time alone Where did the love go? And now, as tears subside It’s been years since the fall The fall of our life The fall of our love Misery one word to describe The feeling inside the look in her eyes The stain on my heart If I try really hard Maybe she’ll see me one more time And I can try to explain It’s not that I don’t want to hold you Maybe I’m just scared of loving you It’s not that I don’t want to see you Maybe I just need some time alone Where did the love go? It’s not that I don’t want to hold you Maybe I’m just scared of loving you It’s not that I don’t want to see you Maybe I just need some time alone It’s not that I don’t want to hold you Maybe I’m just scared of loving you It’s not that I don’t want to see you Maybe I just need some time alone

about

MERE MORTALS' origins would begin as an enigmatic progressive hard rock band on the Upstate New York club circuit named LUFTWAFFE. While performing the band’s final show, band leader and main songwriter Robert Acquaviva decided to take the band in a new, more adult-oriented rock direction, focusing on keyboard-driven songs with catchy hooks and harmonies.
Keeping with the same line-up of guitarist Bob Francis Acquaviva, bassist Paul St. James, drummer Tony Stone and vocalist David Paul Slife, the band would change their name to MERE MORTALS.
MERE MORTALS would waste no time heading into the studio to begin laying down tracks. One of the first songs recorded would be a cover of the infamous Benny Mardones hit ‘Into The Night’. As the writing continued, the addition of keyboardist Vince Cavo into the band would increase the caliber of their material.
MERE MORTALS would record 14-tracks, only 10 of which would be used for their debut album ‘Omnia In Numeris Sita Sunt’. Included would be the single ‘Laura’. Both ‘Laura’ and ‘Into the Night’ would receive much regional airplay that helped to create a buzz for the band.
Quickly taking advantage of the hype, MERE MORTALS return to the studio three months after the release to record their follow-up ‘Immortalized’ released in 1987. The album consisted of nine new songs that the band had already been performing live. As with the debut, the band would receive much praise and radio play regional as well as television spots. The band would play several opening spots for national touring acts such as Patti Smyth, Benny Mardones, Taylor Dane and others in support of the release. Within that same year, after a member's departure and some attempts to shift around members, MERE MORTALS would end up playing their last show as the band and ended as the following year began.
