"17" -- CHICAGO (1984) Side One STAY THE NIGHT (P. Cetera/D. Foster) Arranged by Peter Cetera and David Foster I don't want you to misunderstand me I just wanna say what's on my mind No need to hit me with an attitude Because I haven't got the time I want you to know one thing's for certain I surely love your company And I won't take no if that's your answer At least that's my philosophy Chorus: Stay the night There's room enough here for two Stay the night I'd like to spend it with you Stay the night Why don't we call it a day No one can stop us, nothing is in the way Have some friendly conversation And if you still don't have a clue Unless there's something else you've got in mind We've got better things to do Chorus Just to have you near me Here by my side Just to have you near me And when I get next to your body Just to have you near me I wanna tell you something, make it perfectly clear We're gonna have a very good time Chorus (C) 1984 Double Virgo Music ASCAP/Foster Frees Music, Inc. BMI WE CAN STOP THE HURTIN' (R. Lamm/B. Champlin/D. Neal) Arranged by David Foster and Bobby Lamm Horns arranged by Jimmy Pankow What has happened to our town There's people sleeping on the ground Cold and lost, they fear the night Left alone, they'll lose the fight Hadn't we better reach for more than just a dime Shouldn't we try to talk that boy out of his crime Haven't you had it knowing nothing's getting solved Maybe we'd better, better get involved Chorus: We could stop the hurtin' for awhile We could stop the hurtin' for awhile If we found a way to reconcile We could stop the hurtin' Families livin' in their cars and kids run numbers out of bars Knowing pride won't pay the bills, men work jobs beneath their skills Hadn't we better hand out more than just a line Shouldn't we try to find solutions with our minds Haven't you had it knowing nothing's getting solved Maybe we'd better, better get involved Chorus (C) 1984 Fin de Siecle Musique/JSH Music ASCAP/Cheeky Kid Music BMI HARD HABIT TO BREAK (S. Kipner/J.
