GILBERT O'SULLIVAN lyrics - Clair

Clair, the moment I met you, I swear

I felt as if something, somewhere

Had happened to me, which I couldn't see

And then, the moment I met you, again

I knew in my heart that we were friends

It had to be so, it couldn't be no



But try as hard as I might do, I don't know why

You get to me in a way I can't describe

Words mean so little when you look up and smile

I don't care what people say

To me you're more than a child



Oh, Clair

Clair



Clair, if ever a moment so rare

Was captured for all to compare

That moment is you in all that you do

But why in spite of our age difference do I cry

Each time I leave you I feel I could die

Nothing means more to me than hearing you say

"I'm going to marry you

Will you marry me, Uncle Ray"



Oh, Clair

Clair



Clair, I've told you before "Don't you dare"

"Get back into bed"

"Can't you see that it's late"

"No you can't have a drink"

"Oh, alright then, but wait just a minute"



While I, in an effort to babysit, catch up on my breath

What there is left of it

You can be murder at this hour of the day

But in the morning the sun will see my lifetime away

Oh Clair

Clair

Oh Clair

EVERYTHING BUT THE GIRL lyrics - The Language Of Life

I know you'd rather talk instead about the

Things inside your head, but everything, everything,

That I overheard, tells me you just don't have the

Words. Cause you never learned to speak the language

Of life, and here you are a grown man who can't talk

To his wife. And the children you don't understand.



You think you're come on pretty far, still

Got the job, the house and the car. But there's one

Thing, one thing that you never get - a grip on life?

Sweet alphabet. Cause you never learned to speak the

Language of life, and here you are a grown man who

Can't talk to his wife.



And when things get out of hand, and the kids you

Don't understand - love is foreing land. Over words

You have no command, you have no command

But it's not that you don't care - Admit it baby,

And you're half way there. Cause you know, you know

That you feel much more than you ever have the words for.

Cause you never learned to speak the language of life,

And here you are a grown man who can't talk to his wife,

And the children you just don't understand.

THE RAMONES lyrics - The KKK Took My Baby Away

She went away for the holidays

Said she's going to L. A.

But she never got there

She never got there

She never got there, they say



The KKK took my baby away

They took her away

Away from me

The KKK took my baby away

They took her away

Away from me



Now I don't know

Where my baby can be

They took her from me

They took her from me

I don't know

Where my baby can be

They took her from me

They took her from me



Ring me, ring me ring me

Up the President

And find out

Where my baby went

Ring me, ring me, ring me

Up the FBI

And find out if

My baby's alive

Yeah, yeah, yeah



o o o o o o

o o o o o o



She went away for the holidays



The KKK took my baby away



They took my girl

They took my baby away

TANITA TIKARAM lyrics - Sometime With Me

If I ever wanna be someone

These words undone an evil spell in me

If I ever need to tell someone

This one's who's waiting

So patiently



Good enough

When nothing means enough

It's just time-sweeping

Some time-beaten

Some time with me



If I ever need to hide away

You tell sometime

And still I pray for love

If I ever need to tell too much

You hide sometimes

It never means this love



Good enough

When nothing means enough

It's just time-sweeping

Some time-beaten

Some time with me



I owe you

Not to dance and scar

I owe you

But you never know

No, you never know



If I ever want to shy away

These words, truth spoken

And still I play around

Just to tell you that it's never true

This mind is aching -

It's just for you



Good enough

When nothing means enough

It's just time-sweeping

Some time-beaten

Some time with me



It's just time-sweeping

Some time-beaten

Some time with me

It's just time-sweeping

Some time-beaten

Some time with me

NEW ORDER lyrics - Dream Attack

Nothing in this world

Can touch the music that I heard

When I woke up this morning

It put the Sun into my life

It cut my heartbeat with a knife

It was like no other morning



I don't belong to noone

But I want to be with you

I can't be owned by noone

What am I supposed to do



I can't see the sense in your leaving

All I need is your love to believe in



Don't look into the sun

It's not for me or anyone

To steal the light out of the sky

Is it really such a sin

'Cause if it is then I'll give in

I can't live without your love



I don't belong to noone

But I want to be with you

I can't be owned by noone

What am I supposed to do



I can't see the sense in your leaving

All I need is your love to believe in

And for you I would do what I can

But I can't change the way that I am

NANCI GRIFFITH lyrics - So Long Ago

(Nanci Griffith)



My daddy sent me off to Baton Rouge

In nineteen sixty-nine

He said our love was like a forest fire

And he'd end it with the miles

So you rode with us to Temple, Texas

Where I did catch the train

I remember waving back at you

Through a silted window pane



[Chorus:]

I said, "Fare thee well true love

Of mine"

I said, "Fare thee well sweet lips

Of wine"

And you said, "Fare thee well my

Texas rose"

And then you blew a kiss of

Innocence as the train began to roll

... So long ago



You'd gone off to fight the war when

I returned from school

I traded in my innocence when the

Springtime came to bloom

I married for my family... one night

I dreamed of you

And you were running from me in

The rain down on Congress Avenue



[Chorus]



I saw you once in a crowded bar...

It was Christmas time

I was frightened by the thunder of

Our hearts in sixty nine

Because I live my life in whispers now

And I choose to live alone

So I slipped back to the avenue and

Flipped my collar to the cold



[Chorus]



Where did we go?

That long ago?

So long ago

GOO GOO DOLLS lyrics - Sympathy

(John Rzeznik)



Stranger than your sympathy

This is my apology

I'm killing myself from the inside out

And all my fears have pushed you out



I wish for things that I don't need

All I wanted

And what I chase won't set me free

All I wanted

And I get scared but I'm not crawling on my knees



Oh yeah everything's all wrong yeah

Everything's all wrong yeah

Where the hell did I think I was



Stranger than your sympathy

I take these things so I don't feel

I'm killing myself from the inside out

Now my head's been filled with doubt



It's hard to lead the life you choose

All I wanted

When all your luck's run out on you

All I wanted

You can't see when all your dreams are coming true



Oh yeah it's easy to forget yeah

You choke on the regrets yeah

Who the hell did I think I was



Stranger than your sympathy

All these thoughts you stole from me

I'm not sure where I belong

Nowhere's home and I'm all wrong



And I wasn't all the things

I tried to make believe I was

And I wouldn't be the one to kneel

Before the dreams I wanted

And all the talk and all the lies

Were all the empty things disguised as me

Yeah stranger than your sympathy stranger than your sympathy

THE PRETENDERS lyrics - Don't Lose Faith In Me

Don't lose faith in me

Don't lose faith in me

If you lose faith in me

You lose faith in us



Don't lose harmony

Don't lose harmony

If you lose harmony

You won't need me



Look at me

Can you see how I'm trying

Only you can see me crying

Look at me

These tears ain't lying



One pays the butcher

One pays the thief

I'm looking for you darling

Show me some relief

Artist on the cover

Is a phony and a crook

I'm looking for you lover

Show me where to look



Don't lose faith in me

Please don't lose faith in me

If you lose faith

You lose faith in us

SHELBY LYNNE lyrics - Your Love Stays With Me

(Rory Bourke - Mike Reid)



It's dark in here I feel so alone

But there's a light somebody just turned on

It opens my eyes and it lets me see

And once again it amazes me



How your love stays with me

When shadows fall and everybody leaves

Well I'm not alone I know I'll never be

Your love stays with me



When cold rains fall against my skin

It chills my body oh but not the soul within

Cause I got a fire burnin' so bright

It keeps me warm through the longest night



Oh how your love stays with me...

10CC lyrics - Clockwork Creep

"I'm a clockwork creep

And I can't get to sleep

They wind me up and let me go

And I can't unwind

Going out of my mind

My time is coming soon you know"

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

"I'm a jumbo jet

With a brand new set

Of passengers and bags and crew

I'll spread my wings -

Do a thousand things

To prove how good I am to you"

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

Meanwhile in the cargo of escargot

The temperature is rising

Advertising that our time is running

Down, down, down, down, down

Oh with just one minute to live

Oh, no you'll never get me up in one of these again

`Cos what goes up must come

Down, down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down, down

Oh, the gravity of the situation

It's only my willpower

That keeps this thing in operation

But we're gonna crash that's for certain

The pilot is too busy flirtin'

And he ain't aware

That there's a bomb down there

And if he don't do something it's curtains

"Now just hold on,"

Said the little bomb,

"If you were just to hold my hands

Then time would stop

The plot would flop

And jumbo would be safe to land"

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

My landings are the envy

Of Sabena and Pan Am

From Chattanooga to Japan

I taxi through the airways -

What a swell little plane

What a fine little plane

What a great little plane

I am

"Hang on one sec

I'm a clockwork wreck

And though my fuse is burning slow

Must keep my date to detonate

Goodbye, ta ta, and cheerio

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a tick a time bomb

Tick a........."

ELVIS COSTELLO lyrics - Fire Suite 3

(Music: R. Nathanson; Lyrics: R. Dobbins)



That all could gather

That we could marry

Still

Faces absent

That she could see this

As if time hovered

That he'd caress him

That jars and lads and Carol Ann were



Shouts from brilliant corners

Word 'n tears confused

Sparks long sky bound

Long sky bound



Had I been wiser

And not so bleedin'

Still geezer poet

Wine cross the lips flow

Love through eyes goes

That he'd embrace him

That jars and lads and Carol Ann were



That all could gather

That we could marry

Still

Faces absent

That she could see this

As if time hovered

That he'd caress him

That jars and lads and Carol Ann were

Set by the bar so tender

PETER, PAUL AND MARY lyrics - Yuppies In The Sky

(Tom Paxton)



As I went out one evenin' down Columbus Avenue

All the sushi bars were shuttered, dark cantinas too

And I stood there in the darkness, as an empty cab rolled by

Then all at once I heard the sound of yuppies in the sky



Then the herd came down Columbus, for as far as I could see

All the men were wearing Polo, and the women wore Esprit

Each yuppie had a walk-man and as each one passed me by

I saw their sad expressions and I heard their mournful cry



[Chorus:]

Condos for sale, condos to buy, yuppies in the sky



Each one was wearing running shoes upon the ghostly deck

And each one had a cotton sweater wrapped around the neck

They all held out their credit cards and tried in vain to buy

But not a store was open to the yuppies in the sky.



[Chorus]



(The yuppie-i-o)

I've seen them in commercials sailin' boats and playin' ball

Pourin' beer for one another cryin', "Why not have it all?"

Now I saw the ghostly progress as the winds around me blew

Till I, I felt the urge to purchase a BMW



[Chorus]



All the salad bars were empty, all the Quiche Lorraine was gone

I heard the yuppies crying as they vanished in the dawn

Calling brand names to each other, as they faded from my view

They'll be networking forever down Columbus Avenue

(Move those mini-vans out!)



[Chorus]

THE BEATLES lyrics - Tell Me What You See

(Lennon/McCartney)



If you let me take your heart I will prove to you

We will never be apart if I'm part of you

Open up your eyes now, tell me what you see

It is no surprise now, what you see is me



Big and black the clouds may be, time will pass away

If you put your trust in me I'll make bright your day

Look into these eyes now, tell me what you see

Don't you realise now, what you see is me

Tell me what you see



Listen to me one more time, how can I get through?

Can't you try to see that I'm trying to get to you?

Open up your eyes now, tell me what you see

It is no surprise now, what you see is me

Tell me what you see



Listen to me one more time, how can I get through?

Can't you try to see that I'm trying to get to you?

Open up your eyes now, tell me what you see

It is no surprise now, what you see is me

CREAM lyrics - Stormy Monday

(T-Bone Walker)



They call it stormy Monday, yes but Tuesday's just as bad.

They call it stormy Monday, yes but Tuesday's just as bad.

Wednesday's even worse; Thursday's awful sad.



The eagle flies on Friday, Saturday I go out to play.

The eagle flies on Friday, but Saturday I go out to play.

Sunday I go to church where I kneel down and pray.



And I say, "Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me.

Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me.

Just trying to find my baby, won't you please send her on back to me."



The eagle flies on Friday, on Saturday I go out to play.

The eagle flies on Friday, on Saturday I go out to play.

Sunday I go to church, where I kneel down, Lord and I pray.



Then I say, "Lord have mercy, won't you please have mercy on me.

Lord, oh Lord have mercy, yeah, won't you please, please have mercy on me.

I'm just a-lookin' for my sweet babe, so won't you please send him home, send him on home to me."

BARRY MANILOW lyrics - See The Show Again

They tell me I'm the man of the hour

Champange all around

It's been so long sence I been alone

Sometimes it gets me down

And you your pretty as a picture

And I don't even know you name

But I sure would like to meet you

Why don't you see the show again



I've been playing these love songs for ever

Some times the words don't make much sinces

So I'm living it all though the music

Even last nights complaments

I've been playing for thousands of people

Some times it just never ends

But the look in your eyes feels so good to me

Why don't you see the show again



God knows there not much I can say

I don't have time for love in my life

But if I ever thought about changing my mind

It might be with you tonight



I've been on the road for so many weeks now

And I'm losing track of time

Trying to make everyone happy

I wonder whats really mine

And you your pretty as as picture

But I don't even know your name

I sure would like to meet you some time

Why don't you see the show agian



Why don't you see the show again

See it only baby

See the show, see the show again

Maybe we can get to know each other better some time

DEAN MARTIN lyrics - Silver Bells

City sidewalks busy sidewalks

Dressed in holiday style

In the air there's a feeling of Christmas

Children laughing people passing meeting smile after smile

And on every street corner you hear



Silver bells

Silver bells

It's Christmas time in the city

Ring-a-ling

Hear them sing

Soon it'll be Christmas day



Silver bells

Silver bells

It's Christmas time in the city

Ring-a-ling

Hear them ring

Soon it'll be Christmas day

ELVIS COSTELLO lyrics - For The Stars

The stars were so much brighter then,

They dim and die,

So why pretend

The sky goes on forever:

But if they fade as science teaches,

Poets lose the power of speech.

Waste paper, ink and feather.



If I'd taken up the trumpet

As I should have done,

Then I wouldn't be

Always losing sleep,

While I'm trying to make this rhyme.



For the stars

Were so much,

They were so much brighter then.

If I couldn't put a price on your head,

What's the use of me trying

For the stars?



The morning comes, the days are

Just the time between

Until the dusk,

When we can be together,



If I'd taken up the drums

And I could play in time,

If I had the power,

Would I be wond'ring how,

I'm ever going to write this down.



For the stars

Were so much,

They were so much brighter then.

If I couldn't put a price on your head,

Then what's the use of me trying

For the stars?

R. E.M. lyrics - Texarcana

20,000 miles to an oasis

20,000 years will I burn

20,000 chances I wasted

Waiting for the moment to turn



I would give my life to find it

I would give it all

Catch me if I fall



Walking through the woods I have faced it

Looking for something to learn

30,000 thoughts have replaced it,

Never in my time to return



I would give my life to find it

I would give it all

Catch me if I fall

All alone

Waiting to fall



40,000 stars in the evening

Look at them fall from the sky

40,000 reasons for living

40,000 tears in your eye



I would give my life to find it

I would give it all

Catch me if I fall

RAINBOW lyrics - Eyes Of The World

I see the innocent victims

Fighting to get to his door

No chain of events

Can settle him down

He's not a man anymore

Evil moves, evil ways

Without seeing at all

You ain't got a lot to say

Judging by the things you do

If only you could feel the tears and pain

In the eyes of the world

Dust to dust by the million

Broken dreams in the ground

Aching heart in the heartbeat of home

Where their spirits are gone

Evil takes, evil kills

With no shame or concern

Killing me, killing you

Watch the end of the burn

Maybe you didn't understand

We don't need you anymore

If only you could see the tears and pain

In the eyes of the world

And in the name of religion

For me gave him our soul

The clock with chime

Every second in my heart

For it's taken it's toll

Evil moves, evil ways

With his back to the wall

Evil man look at him down

Without seeing at all

Eyes of the world

Don't wanna, don't wanna cry no more

Eyes of the world

In the eyes

Eyes of the world

You ain't got a lot to say

Eyes of the world

Got to got to feel this way

Eyes of the world

Oh

Eyes of the world

We don't need you anymore

Eyes of the world

If only you could feel the tears and pain

In the eyes of the world

SPARKS lyrics - Scheherazade

Scheherazade, you enslave me

Others begged, crying "save me"

Wasted words, hatred tore me

Scheherazade, tell me stories

Ships at sea, all imagined



Bravery, all imagined

Bloodless blood, colorblindness

Scheherazade, who's behind this?

Scheherazade, there's a sameness

To the world in its plainness

But your worlds are on fire

Filled with lust

Filled with liars



Once upon a time

Very, very long ago

Once upon a time

Very, very far away

All I want are illusions

Scheherazade, no conclusions



Every night, entertain me

No repeats, entertain me

Ships at sea, all imagined

Bravery, all imagined

Bloodless blood, colorblindness

Scheherazade, you're behind this



Scheherazade, Scheherazade, Scheherazade, Scheherazade

I won't kill you

EUROPE lyrics - Lights And Shadows

(Joey Tempest)



One night she came, in from the cold

Like a long lost friend, someone to hold

She said, don't ask me now

Cause what's in a name

But when I'm gone you'll neverbe the same



So won't you hold me now

Can't you see what I came here for

Save me now, cause I now

We'll keep on headin' through

Lights and shadows

We're talkin' lights and shadows



She came from far, with so much to tell

Cause when you're lookin' for love

You can walk through hell

Just like a ricohet, she might come and go

And one look can say more than you'll ever know



So won't you hold me now...



Oh lights and shadows

We're talkin' lights and shadows



So won't you hold me now...



Oh lights and shadows...



We keep on headin' through

Lights and shadows

THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS lyrics - Down To The Bottom Of The Sea

Down down down

Down down down

Down down down

Down to the bottom of the sea

Me and my baby

We got a secret plan

Me and my baby

And I'm a sailor man



Down down down

Down down down

Down down down

Down to the bottom of the sea.

VONDA SHEPARD lyrics - Someone You Use

(Clarence George Carter, Hope T. Inglese, Kitty Mann & Tommy Stough)



Just a shoulder to cry on

That's all I've been to you

Just someone to rely on

When your world is empty and blue



I'm just someone you call dear

Anytime you choose

I'm just someone you run to

I'm just someone you use



I'm just someone you can talk to

And that's all I'll ever be

Just a clown you can laugh with

Someone to treat you as you need



I'm just a fool you can love on

Any time you choose

I'm just someone you run to

I'm just someone you use



I'm just someone you run to

I'm just someone you use

Don't you know when you need me

My little heart just can't refuse



I'm just someone who loves you, baby

I can't win and I can't lose

I'm just someone you run to

I'm just someone you use

VONDA SHEPARD lyrics - How Can You Mend A Broken Heart

I can think of younger days when living for my life

Was everything a man could want to do.

I could never see tomorrow, but I was never told about the sorrow.



And how can you mend a broken heart?

How can you stop the rain from falling down?

How can you stop the sun from shining?

What makes the world go round?

How can you mend a this broken man?

How can a loser ever win?

Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again.



I can still feel the breeze that rustles through the trees

And misty memories of days gone by

We could never see tomorrow, noone said a word about the sorrow.



And how can you mend a broken heart?

How can you stop the rain from falling down?

How can you stop the sun from shining?

What makes the world go round?

How can you mend this broken man?

How can a loser ever win?

Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again.

JERMAINE JACKSON lyrics - Sweetest Sweetest

I can't believe all the things I heard

About you girl is it true

She answered me yes every single word

And that ain't all I do



She said I've tasted cool intoxicating blends

The French champagne, sparkling wine

The beaujolais I highly recommend

But none compare to mine



She's got the sweetest sweetest

She's got the sweetest sweetest



All my life tell me where you've been

Do girls like you just come around

She begged me please not to turn her in

and then she turned me on



Hair like silk, magic in her eyes

Her kiss like fire butned cherry red

She loved me till mercy did I cry

She's got everything she said



She's got the sweetest sweetest

She's got the sweetest sweetest

She's got the sweetest sweetest

Oh you've got the stweetest sweetest

IRVING BERLIN lyrics - I Can't Remember

[Verse:]

I met you, I remember

But try as I may

I can't seem to remember the time or the day

I met you, I remember

That's all I can say

Was it August or September or April or May?



[Refrain:]

I can't remember the first time we met

Was it cloudy or beautiful?



I can't remember the first words I spoke

Did I say you were beautiful?



Was it Sunday? Was it Monday?

Were you dressed in gray or blue?



I can't remember

For all I remember is you

EARTH, WIND AND FIRE lyrics - Be Ever Wonderful

(Maurice White & Larry Dunn)



Be ever wonderful,

stay as you are

Time is right, for you tonight

Find your place among the broadway light, stay as you are

and be ever wonderful, stay as you are

Gonna find a few, who will always walk with you

oh baby - many people claim, but their view's the same



What I wanna do, and what I'd like to tell you

may not be, as you see,

as you live today, what I wanna say

Is be ever wonderful in your own sweet way



Be ever wonderful, stay as you are

Time is right, in your life tonight

Find your place among the broadway light

and be ever wonderful, stay as you are

Stay as you are, won't you stay in your own sweet way

Don't let the world change your mind

KING CRIMSON lyrics - Heartbeat

(Belew/King Crimson)



I need to feel your heartbeat heartbeat

so close, feels like mine

all mine

I need to feel your heartbeat heartbeat

so close it feels like mine

all mine...

I remember the feeling

my hands in your hair

hands in your hair

I remember the feeling

of the rhythm we made

the rhythm we made

I need to land sometime

right next to you

feel your heartbeat heartbeat

right next to me.....

A-HA lyrics - Shapes That Go Together

When you were wrapped in tangles

I was free

And when you were undecided

I believed

It's alright, tonight

On a deep blue mountain high

The shapes that go together

You and I



When you were filled with longing

I belonged

When you were weak from trying

I was strong

But it's alright, tonight

On a deep blue mountain high



The shapes that go together

You and I

The shapes that go together

You and I



Childhood winters

Come to me

Whisper softly

So tenderly



I know, I walked 25 miles to hold you

Just to find you'd moved away



When you were wrapped in tangles

I was free

And when you were almost blinded

I could see

But it's alright, tonight

On a deep blue mountain high



The shapes that go together

You and I

The shapes that go together

You and I

You and I (The shapes that go together)

B. B. KING lyrics - It's Just A Matter Of Time

(Clyde Otis / Brook Benton / Belford Hendricks)



Someday, someway you'll realize that you've been blind

Oh, darling you're gonna need me again

It's just a matter, a matter of time

Oh, go on baby, go on until you reach the end of the line

Hey, but I know, I know you're gonna pass my way again

It's just a matter, just a matter of time



Oh, after I gave you ev'rything I had,

Hey, you know you laughed at me and you called me a clown

Ahw, but you must remember baby, in your search for fortune and fame,

Hey, what goes up just gotta come down

I know, I know-a baby, oh, that someday, one day you'll wake up and find

Oh, my love, my love is a true love

It's just a matter, baby just a matter of time



Hey, after I gave you, gave ev'rything I had,

You know you laughed at me and I can hear you say, "Look at that clown"

But you must remember baby, in your search for fortune and fame,

Oh, what goes up, hey, you know it's got to come down

Oh, but I know hey, I know, I know baby that one day,

One day you'll wake up and find that my love,

My love is a true love

Hey, baby it's just a matter, just a matter of time

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN lyrics - I'm On Fire

Hey little girl is your daddy home

Did he go away and leave you all alone

I got a bad desire

I'm on fire

Tell me now baby is he good to you

Can do to you the things that I do

I can take you higher

I'm on fire

Sometimes it's like, someone took a knife baby edgy and dull and cut a six-inch valley through the middle of my soul

At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet and a freight train running through the middle of my head

Only you can cool my desire

I'm on fire

BEASTIE BOYS lyrics - I Can't Think Straight

I can't think straight



Take a look, look at me

What you get is what you see

Ride a bike drive a car

Vegan Pie cut a fart

On the bus on the train

Tami D on the brain

Can't explain like the who

Now it's time to do the do



I can't think straight



On my couch with a pen

Where's the phone again again

Can't control rhythm rhyme

Naked beats on the mind



I am yes you are no

I am yes you are no

You are no I am yes



I can't think straight



Uh Good Evening ladies

My name is Roy Cormier

I like it smooth actually

I mean a lot of fellows

They like it raw

Personally I prefer smooth

Um you know like the coconut lotion

I'm talkin' I run a lot of productions

Company productins

Keepin' it on the smooth generally

All the regular and uh..

You know with the coconut lotion and all

It's lovely

It's uh you know

Nothin' but love for you baby

RICHARD MARX lyrics - The Other Side

Everyone, even those I love

Say that I must move on

It's time to pick the pieces up

What's done is done

What's gone is gone

And I, I know they mean me well

But I'm not buying what they sell



[Chorus:]

I can see your face

In every shooting star

Can you feel my pain

From where you are?

I really wanna know was it worth the ride?

And will you be waitin' on the other side?

The other side



I've been a soul adrift

Without you here to steady me

And I still listen for your voice

Through the anger and insanity

And I'm desperate for your help

Oh I look for it in myself



[Chorus:]

I can see your face

In every shooting star

Can you feel my pain

From where you are?

And I really wanna know was it worth the ride?

And will you be waitin' on the other side?

The other side



And I, I'm desperate for your help

Oh I, I find it in myself



[Chorus:]

I can see your face

In every shooting star

Can you taste my tears

Ah, from where you are?

And I really wanna know was it worth the ride?

And will you be waitin' on the other side?

The other side

The other side

SONIC YOUTH lyrics - The Ineffable Me

Cant catch me

I'm syntax free

I'm preconceived

Preternaturally

I don't invest

In what is best

Your once and for all

Means shit to me

Hate translator

Hate translator

Hate translator

You can't catch me

Don't mistake her

Don't misshape her

You don't mutate her

You can't get me

The radical beacon

The preverbal season

The abstract poetics

Immediate treason

Do you remember

Reductionist lie

Fundamentalist

AlibI

Hate castrater

Hate castrater

Hate castrater

Don't fuck with me

Don't you break her

And don't deflate her

Don't outdate her

Or you'll fuck with me

Its a cushy job

A pussy's job

A cum junkie's job

Makes my dick throb

Feel...ineffable

Cant catch me

I'm syntax free

I'm preconceived

Prehistoricly

Don't be alarmed

Don't be alarmed

Don't be alarmed

Its only me

Come back in my arms

Back in my arms

Back in my arms

The ineffable me

THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS lyrics - Letterbox

I'll never know what you'll find when you open up your letter box tomorrow

'Cause a little bird never tells me anything I want to know, she's my best friend, she's a sparrow

And I'll never never know what you never never never want to know when you know what you are, O.



If I had a pair of eyes on the back of my head for each time

You forgot to take out all the things you forgot to talk about when you took a bite out of my spine,

I would have a lot of eyes on me by this time wouldn't I? Wouldn't that just be fine.



Too late or soon to make noise about* love and there's no time for sorrow

Run around in the rain with a hole in the brain till tomorrow



I'll never know what you'll find when you open up your letter box tomorrow

'Cause a little bird never tells me anything I want to know, she's my best friend, she's a sparrow

And I'll never never know what you never never never want to know when you know what you are, O.

ASIA lyrics - Sleeping Giant / No Way Back / Reprise

Push forward again, I reach the

Point of zero return

No condemnation remains

No more bridges to burn



A hell of a deal, to keep what I feel inside

There's nowhere to run, there's nowhere to hide,

And there's

NO WAY BACK, NO WAY BACK

NO WAY BACK



A progressive disease

Takes me out of the door

That's when I grab the keys, and I,

I slam my foot to the floor



Step on the gas, smash through the barricade

I'm closing my eyes, cause I don't wanna see, 'cos there's

NO WAY BACK, NO WAY BACK

NO WAY BACK



Keep on working the room

And the end is in sight

Something unknown propels me now

Leading me to the light



I got to be free it's life on the edge for me

The harder it gets, the harder I try:and there's

NO WAY BACK, NO WAY BACK

NO WAY BACK



You're going too far, way over the line

You're raising the bar, no soft landing this time

We stand on the edge, this time is sink or swim

We're spreading out wing and we're learning to fl y

:and there's

NO WAY BACK, NO WAY BACK

NO WAY BACK

NO WAY BACK



It's life on the edge for me

CULTURE CLUB lyrics - The Medal Song

You used to say love and be loved

all the time

Till you discovered feelings

were a failure sign

When it rains

it rains so hard

The tears begin to show

Now it's raining in my heart

I want the world to know

Life will never be the same

as it was again

Life will never be the same

as it was again

Through my anger and my joy

my tears and pain

Life will never be the same

as it was again

Beneath the sea of Hollywood

where Frances used to reign

They trade their deepest wishes

for a part in someone's game

Spirits die alone at night

For life they cannot hold

I would rather dance with you

Than have a medal to show

We are just everyday people

not a theatre company

Everyone wants to join us

there's no fear in us you see

It's me for you

and you for me

Sun go east, sun go west

Will I wear a medal again

Sun go east, sun go west

We can dance and bring on the rain

Now I say love for love

not for a space in time

The strangest things

can shatter kings

and take away what's mine

When it's raining in my heart

I want the world to know

I would rather dance with you

Than have a medal to show

Sun go east, sun go west

Will I wear a medal again

Sun go east, sun go west

We can dance and bring on the rain

JONI MITCHELL lyrics - Jeremy

Jeremy sits in the sun and he stares at the stripes

On the floor from the bars on the door,

Thinking of rabbits he kept as a child

In a chicken wire cage; he remembers the rage

Of his father the night he made his one call;

The relative stranger who left him to fall

To the mercy of judges with no shield at all.

Now he sits and he stares at the punishing wall.

Jeremy picks up the crayon he saved and he

Writes in the dark and he thinks of the park

And the flowers he gave to the girl with the bells.

He remembers he smile; it was gone at the trial.

Hear the footsteps of night guards patrolling the halls.

There are coughers and talkers who don't sleep at all.

'Midst the cursewords and worse words

That someone had scrawled

He writes her a poem on the punishing wall.

Mary, sweet Mary, it's dark and it's cold;

It's all of the stories you've ever been told.

Keep the jar on the window, keep the lock on the door.

keep your mind on the man; keep away from the store.

Oh, Jeremy gentle, oh, Jeremy kind

As you walk with the thieves and the killers believe

That our numbers are growin'; the change has to come.

Put resentment aside; don't turn bitter and die

SONNY AND CHER lyrics - Crystal Clear / Muddy Waters

Muddy waters means trouble at your door

But I won't bring them to you anymore

This time I'm back for good

Sticking close to you

And I swear I'll never hurt you again

I'll never be untrue



[Chorus:]

Rain, let it rain

Let it wash theses muddy waters

Rain, let it rain

Pour, let it pour

And while these muddy waters raise

I'll be staring into your eyes

Out of the rain



It's crystal clear

That you've been lying to me

It's crystal clear

That you've been playing around

It's crystal clear

I'll end up crying it's meant to be

But all that's left to do is pray

You'll stay with me



I'll take you back just one more time

And make those muddy waters mine

And we'll let it, and we'll let it



[Chorus]



Rain, let it rain

Rain, let it rain

BABYFACE lyrics - Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,

Let your heart be light

From now on,

our troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,

Make the Yule-tide gay,

From now on,

our troubles will be miles away.



Here we are as in olden days,

happy golden days of yore.

Faithful friends who are dear to us

gather near to us once more.



Through the years we all will be together

If the Fates allow

Hang a shining star upon the highest bough.

And have yourself a merry little Christmas

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

Have yourself a merry little Christmas now

BREAD lyrics - Make It With You

Hey have you ever tried,

Really reaching out for the other side?

I may be climbing on rainbows

But, baby here goes.



Dreams they're for those who sleep,

Life is for us to keep,

And if you're wond'ring

What this song is leading to



I want to make it with you

I really think that we can make it girl.



No, you don't know me well,

In ev'ry little thing only time will tell,

If you believe the things that I do.

And we'll see it through.



Life can be short or long,

Love can be right or wrong,

And if I choose the one

I'd like to help me through,



I'd like to make it with you

I really think that we can make it girl.



Baby you know that

Dreams they're for those who sleep,

Life is for us to keep

And if I choose the one

I'd like to help me through,



I'd like to make it with you

I really think that we can make it girl.

BEACH BOYS lyrics - Aren't You Glad

(Brian Wilson/Mike Love)



Today could be a lot of fun

And precious one

I'd feel good just to walk with you



Tonight will be a special treat

You're so sweet

And I feel good just to talk with you



You know that I been a long time needing you

You say that you been a long time needing me

And don't you know that there's so much more to come



I got a heart that just won't stop beating for you

I got a love I just can't stop feeling for you



Aren't you glad now darling there's me and you

(Tell me tell me you know what I mean) [me and you]

And I say aren't you glad with these days comes somethin' new

(Tell me tell me you know what I mean) [me and you]

And I say aren't you glad now tell me you're so glad

[Me and you]



(Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo)

Today is another day

Another way to get this feeling across to you

Tonight will be another night

That's outta sight cause I know the way to get close to you



You know that I'll be a long time loving you

I hope that you'll be a long time loving me

And don't you know that there's so much more to come



I got a heart that just won't stop beating for you

I got a love I just can't stop feeling for you



Aren't you glad now darling there's me and you

(Tell me tell me you know what I mean) [me and you]

And I say aren't you glad with these days comes summer

(Tell me tell me you know what I mean) [me and you]

And I say aren't you glad now tell me you're so glad

[Me and you]

WOODY GUTHRIE lyrics - Don't Kill My Baby And My Son

As I walked down that old dark town

In the town where I was born,

I heard the saddest lonesome moan

I ever heard before.



My hair it trembled at the roots

Cold chills run down my spine,

As I drew near that jail house

I heard this deathly cry:



O, don't kill my baby and my son,

O, don't kill my baby and my son.

You can stretch my neck on that old river bridge,

But don't kill my baby and my son.



Now, I've heard the cries of a panther,

Now, I've heard the coyotes yell,

But that long, lonesome cry shook the whole wide world

And it come from the cell of the jail.



Yes, I've heard the screech owls screeching,

And the hoot owls that hoot in the night,

But the graveyard itself is happy compared

To the voice in that jailhouse that night.



Then I saw a picture on a postcard

It showed the Canadian River Bridge,

Three bodies hanging to swing in the wind,

A mother and two sons they'd lynched.



There's a wild wind blows down the river,

There's a wild wind blows through the trees,

There's a wild wind that blows 'round this wide wide world,

And here's what the wild winds say:



O, don't kill my baby and my son,

O, don't kill my baby and my son.

You can stretch my neck on that old river bridge,

But don't kill my baby and my son.

PATTY LOVELESS lyrics - Lonely Days, Lonely Nights

Lonely days, lonely nights

Missing you, with all my might

Wanting you

To hold me tight

Lonely days, lonely nights



When you're gone

This old house, it gets lonely

And talkin' to myself

Ain't company

And nothin' seems to stop

The tears from fallin'

Feeling sorry for myself

You're not here to comfort me



Lonely days, lonely nights

Missing you, with all my might

Wanting you to hold me tight

Lonely days, lonely nights



Sleep without you

Is just a bad dream

Whispers that I hear

Are just the wind

And mornin's just another day

To remind me

This is the loneliest

I think I've ever been



Lonely days, lonely nights

Missing you, with all my might

Wanting you to hold me tight

Lonely days, lonely nights



Lonely days, lonely nights

Missing you, with all my might

Wanting you to hold me tight

Lonely days, lonely nights

SLADE lyrics - Gypsy Roadhog

(Noddy Holder & Jimmy Lea)



Powdered my nose in Alabama

Out on a limb

Powdered my nose in Indiana

Ain't that a sin

I had to get my butt out quick

It always works - the old, old trick

I got away just in the nick of time, that's why

I powdered my nose in Oklahoma

Over the top

I wasted away in New Orleans

I couldn't stop

Down in the alley - happy dust

Me and Romona we was gettin' bust

I got away just in the nick of time, that's why

I got the nickname the Gypsy Roadhog

On the California trail

I gotta keep my wheels movin' on

I gotta keep me outa jail

Powdered my nose in San Francisco

Down on the bay

It went to my head down in New York City

I was blasted away

And two ugly scuts bust in the room

They took away my little silver spoon

I got away just in the nick of time, that's why

(CHORUS)

I'm comin' through, through, through

I'm looking for you

MICHAEL BOLTON lyrics - Hot Love

I never knew someone who made me

Feel so good before

But I never gave my heart to anyone

Who could hurt me more

And when you promise me that no one else

Will ever take my place

I get the feeling you're just leading me on

And lying right to my face



First you say you want me then you say

You're leaving

I've gotta know if I'm coming or going with you

When ya say you need me

Do you really mean it

Maybe it's true I just wish I could believe it



Hot love ya leave me so cold

But one touch and you've got me

Where ya want me

Hot love ya leave me so cold

I don't know if I'm coming or going

There's no way of knowing with you



Just when I give it up the game

Is through and your heart is mine

I turn around you're up to something new

Ya do it time after time



What's it gonna take to break this circle

I've gotta know am I coming or going with you

And when ya hurt me do ya really mean to

Ya say ya don't I wish I could believe you



Hot love ya leave me so cold

But one touch and you've got me

Where ya want me

Hot love ya leave me so cold

I don't know if I'm coming or going

There's no way of knowing with you



You come on like a fire burning

And I'm lost in the flame

Over and over again



Hot love ya leave me so cold

But one touch and you've got me

Where ya want me

Hot love ya leave me so cold

I don't know if I'm coming or going

There's no way of knowing with you

SONIC YOUTH lyrics - Walkin Blue

Hey now, whats the news?

I heard you've been seen walkin' blue

I know we're all confused, it's ture

I know you feel the same way



Everything we see is clear/everything we feel



I'm here to let you know

All we need to do is just to just let go

You've heard we're "born to lose",I know

But don't you start to think that's really true

You've got the walkin blues today

But soon we'll stand and let the music play



Everything we dream is clear, everything we

Need



Let's say you and I we find/something hard to hold

Let's keep it in our minds

And let it fill our days

Never slip and find we've let it stray

Now we're in for the long ride

We can let the rest slip aside



Everything we need is clear

Everything we feel is clear

Everything we dream is clear

Everything we see is clear

JIM STAFFORD lyrics - My Girl Bill

Bill walked me to my door last night

And he said, 'Before I go

There's something about our love affair

That I have a right to know

I said, "Let's not stand out here like this

What would the neighbors think

Why don't we just...step inside

And I'll fix us both a drink"



My girl, Bill

My, my, girl, Bill

Can't say enough about the way I feel

About my girl

(My girl, my girl)

My girl, Bill



William's hands were shaking

As he took his glass of wine

And I could see we both felt the same

When his eyes met mine

I said, "'Who we love and why we love

It's hard to understand

So let's just sit here on the couch

And face this, man to man"



My girl, Bill

My, my, girl, Bill

Can't say enough about the way I feel

About my girl

(My girl, my girl)

My girl Bill



Bill, you know we just left her place

And we both know what she said

She doesn't want to see your face

And she wishes you were dead

Now, I know we both love her

And I guess we always will

But you're gonna have to find another

'Cause she's my girl...Bill



My girl, Bill

My, my, girl, Bill

Can't say enough about the way I feel

About my girl

(My girl, my girl)

Talkin' 'bout my little girl

My girl, Bill



My girl, Bill

My, my, girl, Bill

Can't say enough about the way I feel

About my girl

(My girl, my girl)

My girl, Bill

SHANE MACGOWAN AND THE POPES lyrics - You're The One

You fill my sweetest dreams

You fill my sleep

You fill my heart with love

You make my life complete

When all is said and done

Darling I know you're the one



Lying in my lonely bed

Thought about you as the moon

Listening to the sad songs down below

Thought about you as the tune

Wish that I could let you know

I think about you as the sun

So you're everywhere I go

My darling I know you're the one



The one I long to see

To drown myself in you

Surround myself safe in your arms

Forever



Darling I know you're the one



Funny how the circle turns

Funny how the flame still burns

Now that all is said and done

Darling I know you're the one



Wherever you go

I'll always know

Darling I know you're the one

You're the one

Darling I know you're the one

RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS lyrics - Venice Queen

Does it go from east to west

Body free and a body less

Come again just to start a fresh

Once again to find a home

In the moment of the meantime



Dropping in coming through the mesh

Checking in just to get it blessed

Hard to leave when it's picturesque

Find a form that's free the roam

Where you coming from

Where you going



Do it all then it all again

Make it up and you make a friend

Paddle on just around the bend

Find a place where you can see

All the mamas and the papas



Take a chance on a recommend

Hard as hell just to comprehend

Disbelief that I do suspend

Easy now to find a breeze

Where you come from

Where you going



We all want to tell her

Tell her that we love her

Venice gets a queen

Best i've ever seen

We all want to kiss her

Tell her that we miss her

Venice gets a queen

Best i've ever



I know you said you don't believe

In god do you still disagree

Now that it's time for you to leave

G. L.O. R.I. A

Is love my friend



Your stylish mess of silver hair

A woman of your kind is rare

Your uniform returns to air

G. L.O. R.I. A

Is love my friend



And now it's time for you to go

You taught me most of what I know

Where would I be without you Glo

G. L.O. R.I. A

Is love my friend



I see you standing by the see

The waves you made will always be

A kiss goodbye forever you leave

G. L.O. R.I. A

Is love my friend

LYNYRD SKYNYRD lyrics - I Never Dreamed

(Ronnie Van Zant - Steve Gaines)



My daddy told me always be strong son

Don't you ever cry

You find the pretty girls and then you love them

Then you say goodbye

I never dreamed that you would leave me

But now you're gone

I never dreamed that I would miss you

Woman won't you come back home



I never dreamed that you could hurt me

And leave me blue

I've had a thousand, maybe more

But never one like you

I never dreamed I could feel so empty

But now I'm down

I never dreamed that I would beg you

Woman I need you now



It seems to me I took your love for granted

It feels to me that this time I was wrong, so wrong

Oh Lord now I feel so lonely

I say woman won't you come back home



I tried to do what my daddy taught me

But I think he knew

Someday that I would find one woman like you

I never dreamed that it could feel so good, Lord

That two could be one

I never knew about sweet love

So woman won't you come back home

Oh baby won't you come back home

WEIRD AL YANKOVIC lyrics - Harvey The Wonder Hamster

Oh, Harvey, Harvey

Harvey the Wonder Hamster

He doesn't bite and he doesn't squeal

He just runs around on his hamster wheel

Harvey, Harvey

Harvey the Wonder Hamster

Hey, Harvey!

VAN MORRISON lyrics - When The Leaves Come Falling Down

I saw you standing with the wind and the rain in your face

And you were thinking 'bout the wisdom of the leaves and their grace

When the leaves come falling down

In September when the leaves, come falling down



And at night the moon is shining on a clear, cloudless sky

And when the evening shadows fall I'll be there by your side

When the leaves come falling down

In September when the leaves, come falling down



Follow me down, follow me down, follow me down

To the place beside the garden and the wall

Follow me down, follow me down

To the space before the twilight and the dawn



Oh, the last time I saw Paris in the streets, in the rain

And as I walk along the boulevards with you, once again

And the leaves come falling down

In September, when the leaves come falling down



Follow me down, follow me down, follow me down

To the place between the garden and the wall

Follow me down, follow me down

To the space between the twilight and the dawn



And as I'm looking at the colour of the leaves, in your hand

As we're listening to Chet Baker on the beach, in the sand

When the leaves come falling down,

Woe in September, when the leaves come falling down

Oh when the leaves come falling down

Yeah in September when the leaves come falling down



When the leaves come falling down

In September, when the leaves come falling down



When the leaves come falling down in September, in the rain

When the leaves come falling down



When the leaves come falting down in September, in the rain

When the leaves come falling down

JACKIE DESHANNON lyrics - Put A Little Love In Your Heart

(Jackie DeShannon, Jimmy Holiday and Randy Myers)



Think of your fellow man

Lend him a helping hand

Put a little love in your heart

You see it's getting late

Oh, please don't hesitate

Put a little love in your heart



And the world will be a better place

And the world will be a better place

For you and me

You just wait and see



Another day goes by

Still the children cry

Put a little love in your heart

If you want the world to know

We won't let hatred grow

Put a little love in your heart



And the world (and the world) will be a better place

All the world (all the world) will be a better place

For you (for you)

And me (and me)

You just wait (just wait)

And see, wait and see



Take a good look around

And if you're looking down

Put a little love in your heart

I hope when you decide

Kindness will be your guide

Put a little love in your heart



And the world (and the world) will be a better place

And the world (and the world) will be a better place

For you (for you)

And me (and me)

You just wait (just wait)

And see



People, now put a little love in your heart

Each and every day

Put a little love in your heart

There's no other way

Put a little love in your heart

It's up to you

Put a little love in your heart

C'mon and



[Fade]

Put a little love in your heart

CROSBY, STILLS & NASH lyrics - Too Much Love To Hide

(Stephen Stills and Gerry Tolman)



[Intro. (Electric Guitars)]



Can I sing a song to the woman

Take a look at what you might be missing

With a certain love that you know will stand

It takes a good woman and a good man, I believe



I believe, I believe enough don't I

I believe when I see her eyes

I believe there is too much love to hide



[Instrumental (Electric Guitar)]



Boy don't stand there in the shadows

Let her know you care about what she knows

Turn your mind into a window

And the listener will lead who follows, I believe



I believe, I believe enough don't I

I believe when I see her eyes

I believe there is too much love to hide



[Instrumental (Electric Guitar)]



If you don't trust at all you lose

You are bound to fall

Lost behind your wall



[Instrumental (Electric Guitar)]



I believe, I believe enough don't I

I believe when I see her eyes

I believe there is too much love to hide

Too much, too much



So you know now you found out

This is the kind of love you can shout about

Leave your loneliness in the past

This is the kind of love that's gonna last, I believe



I believe, I believe enough don't I

I believe when I see her eyes

I believe there is too much love to hide

Too much, too much



[Instrumental Ending (Electric Guitar)]

THE MONKEES lyrics - Tomorrow's Gonna Be Another Day

(Tommy Boyce and Steve Venet)



I'm gonna pack up my pain,

I been a keepin' in my heart,

I'm gonna catch me the fastest train

And make me a brand new start

But that's okay,

Tomorrow's gonna be another day.

Yay, yay, yay,

Hey, hey, hey.

And I don't care what they say

Tomorrow's gonna be, tomorrow's gonna be,

Tomorrow's gonna be another day.

Yay, yay, yay,

Yay, yay, yay.

BARRY MANILOW lyrics - The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire)

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire

Jack Frost nipping at your nose

Yule-tide carols being sung by a choir

And folks dressed up like Eskimos.



Everybody knows a turkey

And some mistletoe

Help to make the season bright

Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow

Will find it hard to sleep tonight.



They know that Santa's on his way

He's loaded lots of toys

And goodies in his sleigh

And every mother's child is gonna spy

To see if reindeer

Really know how to fly.



And so I'm offering this simple song

To kids from one to ninety-two

Although it's been said

Many times, many ways

Merry Christmas to you.



And so I'm offering this simple song

To kids from one to ninety-two

Although it's been said

Many times, many ways

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to you.

JOHN HIATT lyrics - My Dog And Me

She marked our trail

Up the back bone ridge

How many times can one dog pee

She keeps me high as an eagle

When i'm on the skids

I guess you gotta come down eventually



[Chorus 1:]

Buddy i coulda gone that extra mile

For an extra bark or an extra smile

'Cause i never felt so free

It was just my dog and me



Then she gives me that look

Like she'd lay down her life

No doubt she would in a minute, man

She'd face the bullet

Oh she'd face the knife

Just to keep my butt from the fryin' pan



[Chorus 2:]

Now she's runnin' up ahead to chase some deer

Comes back to tell that coast is clear

It's a different world i see

When it's just my dog and me



There's a rabbit on the run

Man and beast ans sky and sun

Who's talking to the birds in the trees

Why its just my dog and me



Now it looks like we've been makin' tracks

From the crack of dawn

To the end of the day

So its nice and easy down the devil's back

She wouldn't know

Any other was



[Chorus 3:]

So its over that ridge for one last mile

'Til we're fast asleep by the fire side

Dreamin' these dreams for free

Just my dog and me

BOB DYLAN lyrics - Need A Woman

It's been raining in the trenches all day long, dripping down to my clothes,

My patience is wearing thin, got a fire inside my nose.

Searching for the truth the way God designed it,

The truth is I might drown before I find it.



Well I need a woman, yes I do

Need a woman, yes I do.

Someone who can see me as I am,

Somebody who just don't give a damn.

And I want you to be that woman every night,

Be that woman.



I've had my eyes on you baby for about five long years,

You probably don't know me at all, but I have seen your laughter and tears.

Now you don't frighten me, my heart is jumping

And you look like it wouldn't hurt you none to have a man who could give ya something.



Well I need a woman, oh don't I

Need a woman, bring it home safe at last.

Seen you turn the corner, seen your bootheels spark,

Seen you in the daylight, and watched you in the dark.

And I want you to be that woman, all right

Be that woman every night.



Well, if you believe in something long enough you just naturally come to think it's true.

There ain't no wall you can't cross over, ain't no fire you can't walk through.

Well, believing is all right, just don't let the wrong people know what it's all about.

They might put the evil eye on you, use their hidden powers to try to turn you out.



Well I need a woman, just to be my queen.

Need a woman, know what I mean?

TRAFFIC lyrics - Dear Mr. Fantasy

(Winwood/Capaldi)



Dear Mister Fantasy play us a tune

Something to make us all happy

Do anything take us out of this gloom

Sing a song, play guitar

Make it snappy



You are the one who can make us all laugh

But doing that you break out in tears

Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had

We wouldn't have known you all these years

FLEETWOOD MAC lyrics - Honey Hi

(Christine McVie)



Honey, honey, honey

Who could be sweeter than you

Honey, honey, honey

Bitter sweet, but what can I do

Lord, it's good to talk to you

Even sweeter than wine

Don't take the love light away

'Cause I'm far away from home

Daddy, all I'm trying to tell you

Lord, I really love you, love you, love you

Honey, honey, honey hi

Honey, honey, honey hi

Honey, honey, honey hi.

IGGY POP lyrics - Baby

Baby, don't you cry

Baby, I'll sing you a lullabye



We're walking down the

Street of chance

Where the chance is always

Slim or none

And the intentions unjust



Baby there's nothing to see

I've already been

Down the street of chance



Baby you're so clean

Baby please stay clean

Baby you're so young

Baby please stay young

Baby, don't you cry

Baby, we've already cried

MARLON JACKSON lyrics - Life

(Marlon Jackson/Bryan Loren)



Hey baby come with me

I'll show you life's possibilies

Hey darling you're so naive

Take this challenge through life with me



Don't be afraid every night and day

Don't believe every word everybody say

Just take my hadn and follow me

And you will see our different needs



There's a man over there

Walk around don't go anywhere

There's aguy standing tall

Everyoday wants him to fall



That's life

Open up your eyes girl

That's life

Make no mistake

Life

Open up your eyes girl

That's life



Hey baby did you see

When people make it others pull at their feet

They want them down why should that be

If you're grateful be thankful for thee



You never know what lies ahead

You're the only one you have to fear

The doors are open just for you my dear



There's a man in a suit and a tie

Dirty deals life has passed him by

There's a girl who refused to fall

And she will reach her goal



That's life

Open up your eyes girl

That's life

Make no mistake

Life

Open up your eyes girl

That's life



Every day I worry for you

Cause there's so much you want do do

You'll trust anyobody's face

You're so full of love

You'll believe anything they say



There's a man over there

Walk around he don't go anywhere

There's a boy who sits and cries

He's afraid to live and he's afraid to die

There's a girl a degree in law

Out of work will she practise at all

There's a guy standing tall

Everybody wants him to fall



That's life

Open up your eyes girl

That's life

Make no mistake

Life

Open up your eyes girl

That's life

THE KINGSTON TRIO lyrics - Oh, Miss Mary

(John Phillips/John Stewart)



[Chorus:]

Oh, Miss Mary, where are you wanderin'? [Repeat 2x]

Three days and Mary's comin' home.



When Mary was a young girl she took to wanderin'. Never would she leave me and not come back again.

Swear I hear her singing, singing in the western wind. Three days and Mary's comin' home.



[Chorus]



Mary chased a rainbow over the mountains. Crossed so many rivers, Lord, that I can't count them.

She wouldn't want the rainbows even if she found them. Three days and Mary's comin' home.



[Chorus]



Watchin' for my Mary, wish she was home again. Home from the rivers, Lord, home from the mountains.

If I turn my back, say, she'd just be gone again. Three days and Mary's comin' home.



[Chorus]

BESSIE SMITH lyrics - My Sweetie Went Away

(Handman / Roy Turk)



I've got a lovesick tale to tell to you

Though it ain't no affair of mine

It's 'bout a gal named Sue and a boy named Lou

They were fighting all the time

Sue came home one afternoon

And found an empty dining room

Without a word her turtledove had flown

She began to moan



My sweetie went away but he didn't say where

He didn't say when, he didn't say why

Oh, bid me goodbye

I'm blue as I can be

I know he loved another one but he didn't say who

He didn't say when, he didn't say what

His mama has got

That took my sweetie from me

I'm like a little lost sheep

And I can't sleep

But I keep trying to forget

My trifling papa has left his mama all alone, I groan

My sweetie went away but he didn't say where

He didn't say when, he didn't say why

I know I'll die

Why don't he hurry home

DURAN DURAN lyrics - Wild Boys

The wild boys are calling

On their way back from the fire

In august moon's surrender to

A dust cloud on the rise

Wild boys fallen far from glory

Reckless and so hungered

On the razors edge you trail

Because there's murder

By the roadside in a sore afraid new world



They tried to break us, looks like they'll try again



Wild boys never lose it

Wild boys never chose this way

Wild boys never close your eyes

Wild boys always shine



You got sirens for a welcome

There's bloodstain for your pain

And your telephone been ringing

While you're dancing in the rain

Wild boys wonder where is glory

Where is all you angels?

Now the figureheads have fell

And lovers war with arrows over secrets they could tell



They tried to tame you looks like they'll try again



Wild boys never lose it

Wild boys never chose this way

Wild boys never close your eyes

Wild boys always shine

GREEN DAY lyrics - Only Of You

I wish I could tell you

But the words would come out wrong

Oh if you only knew

The way I felt for so long

I know that we're worlds apart

But I just don't seem to care

These feelings in my heart

Only with you I want to share



The first time I caught a glimpse of you

Then my thoughts were only of you



I hope that when time goes by

You will think the same about me

Many nights awake I lie

I only wish that you could see

I know that we're only friends

I hope this feeling never ends

If I could only hold you

It's the only thing I want to do.



The first time I caught a glimpse of you

Then my thoughts were only of you

KOZMIC BLUES BAND lyrics - To Love Somebody

There's a light, certain kinda light,

Never ever, never shone on me, no, no.

Honey, I want, I want my whole life

To be lived with you, babe,

That's what I want oh, was to be

Living and loving you.



There's a way, oh everybody say

You can do anything, every thing yeah.

But what good, what good,

Honey, what good could it ever bring

'Cause I ain't got you with my love

And I can't find you babe, no I can't.



You don't know, you don't know what it's like,

No you don't, honey no you don't know,

You don't know what it's like

To love anybody.

Oh honey, I wanna talk about love

And trying to hold somebody

The way I love you babe,

And I've been loving you babe.



In my brain, oh I can see your face again,

I know my frame of mind, yeah.

But nobody, nobody has to ever be so blind,

Honey, like I did, I know I was blind,

Honey, I tell you that I was, I was very, very blind.

Oh but I'm just a girl,

Can't you just take a look at me and tell,

Tell that I live, honey I live and I breathe for you,

Don't you know I do!



But what good, what good,

Honey, what good could ever do

'Cause I ain't got you, that's all I've ever wanted,

And I ain't got you, babe, oh but I've been looking 'round.

But you don't know, you don't know what it's like,

No you don't, no, no, no, you don't know,

Honey, you don't know what it's like

Oh to love anybody.

Oh honey I wanna talk about

Trying to hold somebody when you're lonely

The way I loved you, baby,

And I just want you to know I tried.



Oh I know that there's a way

'Cause everybody came to me one time and said,

"Honey, you can do anything,

Every little thing," and I think I can.

Oh, but what good, what good,

Honey, what awfully good can it ever, ever bring,

'Cause I can't find you with my love,

And I can't find you babe, oh anywhere.



Oh, but you don't know,

You don't know what it's like,

No you don't and you never ever, ever did.

You don't know, honey,

You don't know what it's like

Oh, to love anybody.

Oh, honey I wanna talk about trying to hold you.



Oh baby, baby, baby, yeah,

But you don't know,

You don't know what it's like,

And you never ever, ever did,

I said I tried to throw my love around you

And I tried to help you darling.

But you never ever, no you never ever,

No you never ever, no you never ever,

I know that you know that

No you never ever, ever, ever,

Oh let me throw my love,

Throw my love all around you, yeah.

PAUL MCCARTNEY lyrics - Your Loving Flame

(McCartney)



How can I hope to reach your love

Help me to discover

What it is you're thinking of



'Cos when we kiss, nothing feels the same

I could spend eternity

Inside your loving flame



What am I to do

If I don't have you

I'll be feeling blue

Just sitting here without you

You could be the one

To chase my blues away, away



So tell me how, how to reach your love

Help me to discover

What it is you're thinking of



'Cos when we kiss, nothing feels the same

I could spend eternity

Inside your loving flame



What am I to do

If I don't have you

I'll be feeling blue

Just sitting here without you

You could be the one

To chase my blues away, away



'Cos when we kiss, nothing feels the same

I could spend eternity

Inside your loving flame



So tell me how, how to reach your love

Help me to discover

What it is you're thinking of



How can I hope to reach your love

Here forever in your loving flame
