On album Emotion (1984)

…mind I need to find
I need the emotion
I need to laugh
Sometimes I need to cry
I need the emotion
I need to love so hard
I…
…to laugh
Sometimes I need to cry
I need the emotion
I need to love so hard
I don't know what to do
And baby , I need you
Oh
Sometimes I…
…you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
I need the emotion
I need to laugh sometimes I need to cry
Cry
I need the emotion…
By Brenda Russell feat. Joe Esposito (1988)
On album Get Here (1988)

…pullin' me back (just a little more time)
Back to love you
I know I'm caught up in the middle
I cry just a little
When I think of…
…letting go
Oh no, gave up on the riddle
I cry just a little
When he plays piano in the dark
He holds me close like a thief of…
…a little more time)
Back to love you
I know I'm caught up in the middle
I cry just a little
When I think of letting go
Oh no, gave up…

…make me cry all days, cry all days
[Chorus]
You can give me passion hot emotion
Without my life, will be so wrong
You can give me…
…all your pretty fashion
You are the reason of my heart
You can give me passion hot emotion
Without love my life will be so wrong…
…hot emotion
Without my life, will be so wrong
You can give me all your pretty fashion
You are the reason of my heart
You can give…

…a miracle
It's a miracle
And dreams are made of emotion
Dance with the counterfeit
The plastic smiles and micro heat
I'll meet you…
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
And dreams are made of emotion
(Cry…
…no surprise
There's something in my eyes
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
And dreams are made of emotion…

…a miracle
It's a miracle
And dreams are made of emotion
Dance with the counterfeit
The plastic smiles and micro heat
I'll meet you…
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
And dreams are made of emotion
(Cry…
…no surprise
There's something in my eyes
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
And dreams are made of emotion…

…the right emotion
When your eyes fill up with oceans
Girl I love to make you cry
Know I'm really onto something
When…
…the best
[Chorus]
I love to make you cry
Know I hit the right emotion (Hit the right emotion)
When your eyes fill up with oceans (Your…
…lie, lie
I ain't gonna lie (Lie, lie, lie)
Girl, I love to make you cry
[Bridge]
And sometimes I want to run out of…

Everything's so different
That it brings me to my knees
And though I know the world of real emotion has surrounded me
I won't give…
…'Cause the truth I'm seeking
Always was inside of me
And when I find the world of real emotion has surrounded me
The many things…
…do for you?
I can hear you
And if I find the real world of emotion has surrounded me
And I can't go…

…will never change
Behind my smile
Oh baby see me cry
No tears of joy
Oh, I'm a lonely boy
Some hearts will never change
Some hearts…
…the summer, see you again
I love you baby, where's deep emotion
Oh, where the mountain meet the sky
West of the moon, I could…
Pray in my bed, I'm losing control
I'm leaving you in S.O.S.
Turn of your dream, and confess
Love me baby, see my emotion…

…will never change
Behind my smile
Oh baby see me cry
No tears of joy
Oh, I'm a lonely boy
Some hearts will never change
Some hearts…
…the summer, see you again
I love you baby, where's deep emotion
Oh, where the mountain meet the sky
West of the moon, I could…
Pray in my bed, I'm losing control
I'm leaving you in S.O.S.
Turn of your dream, and confess
Love me baby, see my emotion…

…in the middle
I cry just a little
When I think of letting go
Oh no, gave up on the riddle
I cry just a little
When he plays piano…
…caught up in the middle
I cry just a little
When I think of letting go
Oh, no, gave up on the riddle
I cry just a little
When he…
…can feel your emotion
Oh baby, pulling me back
Back to love you
I know, I'm caught up in the middle
I cry just a little
When I…

…have taken every part of me
I'll hold you close on this last goodbye
But I know... I'll Break Down N' Cry
I'll Break Down N' Cry…
…guess I'll go mine
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
I'll love you till the end of time
I drown in emotion can't you see
You have taken…
N' Cry...
Cry... Cry...
I drown in emotion can't you see
You have taken every part of me
I'll hold you close on this last goodbye…

Some people think showing emotion is luxury they can't afford
So why when I'm crying my eyes fill up with diamonds
Hands open…
…think are unbreakable but we cry too..
2x
Some people think showing emotion is luxury they can't afford
So why when I'm crying…
…we didn't have a kid
2x
Some people think showing emotion is luxury they can't afford
So why when I'm crying my eyes fill up with diamonds
Hands open: you ask me to cry some more…

I am, this grey emotion follows me
I've already realized it never disappeared
I can't cry for help
Cause it will be a waste of…
…time
It differs from other emotions
I can't cry for help
Cause it will be a waste of time
Maybe, I think this is humanity
I'll…
…cry for help anymore
I'll live while bearing and embracing this helpless emotion…

The things I've been reading
Words love to play
With your mind
But there's got to be
Some sign of emotion
Out on a road that
Leads somewhere…
…the times
And all I'm lookin' for
Is someone who's tryin'
To make me break down and cry
But there's got to be
Some sign of emotion…
…hopin' for
Is someone who's trying
To make me break down and cry
But there's got to be
Some sign of emotion
Out on a road that
Leads somewhere
I've got to see some
Sign of emotion
To get me there…

…to love you
[Chorus]
I know I'm caught up in the middle
I cry just a little
When I think of letting go
Oh no, gave up on the riddle
I cry…
…emotion
It's pulling me back
Back to love you
[Chorus]
I know I'm caught up in the middle
I cry just a little
When I think of…
…[Chorus]
I know I'm caught up in the middle
I cry just a little
When I think of letting go
Oh no, gave up on the riddle
I cry…
