Lyrics

SOONER OR LATER © Fred Israel
[sooner or later love is gonna get you]

(verse 1):
Standin in line for a one night stand
Mystery gets the upper hand
Walk through the door steal another glance
Close your eyes and let the roulette spin
Play your cards play your parts
Play your games play your stars
You're not the kind to let somebody fool you
Come together break away docee do from day to day
Cant go on too long this way it's gettin'to you.

(Chorus 1):
Sooner or Later somebody gonna catch you
Sooner or Later somethin' gonna get you
Sooner or Later love is gonna touch you.

(verse 2):
Lyin in bed countin the sheep (girl) how many get through to you?
Lay back your head ..turn your cheek
Don't wanna hear no voice whispering through you.
Actin cool talkin smart. promised yourself from the very start
Ain't gonna drown in a broken heart not you?
Callin the bluff, talkin tough, a pirate on a ship of love
Your not the kind to let somebody fool ya.

(Chorus 2):
Hopelessly protecting what you cannot hide
Open window drawn down blinds
Sultry smile lasts a while then moves aside
Ebbs and flows through your eyes
Like a caterpillar leaves it all behind
Shed your skin and shine

(Chorus 1):
Sooner or Later somebody gonna catch you
Sooner or Later some maker' gonna match you
Sooner or Later love is gonna touch you.

(verse 3)
Walkin downtown talkin man to man
I find myself off in another land
Dont know a soul dont read the poll
Every now and then I fill an empty hole
Waitin in line to make a one night stand
Mystery gets the upper hand
Come together break away..Watch out behing anywgere any day

(Chorus 2):
Hopelessly protecting what you cannot hide
Open window drawn down blinds
Sultry smile lasts a while then moves aside
ebbs and flows through your eyes
like a caterpillar leaves it all behind
spread your wings and fly

(Break/Bridge)
Sooner or Later love is gonna touch you
Soon as tonight. Sooner than later.
Love is gonna catch ya Someone gonna touch ya
Love is gonna find ya..she be creepin up behind ya
Spin the night in the light

Work it on to another heart (dance in the lights)
Turn around make another start
Ain't gonna drown in broken heart not you
Come together, break away, docee do from day to day
Cant go on to long this way it's gettin to you

(Chorus 1 and 2 together)
Hopelessly protecting what you cannot hide....[Sooner or Later]
