I can't live

No, I can’t forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess that’s just the way this story goes,
You always smile....
But in you eyes your sorrow shows
Yes it shows

No I can’t forget tomorrow
When I think of all my sorrows
When I had you there but then I let you go
And now it’s only fair that I should let you know
What you should know

I cant live
If living is without you
I can’t live
I can’t give anymore
Can’t live
If living is without you
can’t give,
I can’t give anymore

Well, I can’t forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess that’s just the way this story goes,
You always smile
But in you eyes your sorrow shows
Yes it shows

can’t live
If living is without you
I can’t live
I can’t give anymore
Can’t live
If living is without you
I can’t live,
I can’t give anymore

Ohhhhhh(No can’t live)
No no no (No I can’t live)
I can’t live (No can’t live)
If living is without (No I can’t live)
I can’t live (No can’t live)
I can’t give anymore (No I can’t live)


We can wear a mask,
Pretend everything is alright
But there comes a point when we break,
When being alone hurts more than we
ever believed possible.
Harry Nilson

You cant play on broken strings...

Let me hold you
For the last time
It's the last chance to feel again
But you broke me
Now I can't feel anything

When I love you,
It's so untrue
I can't even convince myself
When I'm speaking,
It's the voice of someone else

Oh it tears me up
I try to hold on,
but it hurts too much
I try to forgive,
but it's not enough to make it all okay

You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything that
your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real

Oh the truth hurts
And lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little less
than before

Oh what are we doing
We are turning into dust
Playing house in the ruins of us
Running back through the fire
When there's nothing left to save
It's like chasing the very
last train when it's too late

Oh it tears me up
I try to hold on,
but it hurts too much
I try to forgive,
but it's not enough to
make it all okay

You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything that your
heart don't want to feel
I can't tell something
that ain't real

Well the truth hurts,
And lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little
less than before

But we're running through the fire
When there's nothing left to save
It's like chasing the very last train
When we both know it's too late (too late)

You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything that your heart
don't want to feel
I cant tell you something
that ain't real

Well truth hurts,
And lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little
less than before
Let me hold you
for the last time
It's the last chance
to feel again

game of lust

Enigma T N T For The Brain lyrics
The principles of lust
are easy to understand
do what you feel
feel until the end
the principles of lust
are burned in your mind
do what you want
do it until you find
love...

Smell your skin
Feel your breath
You on my side
I couldn't resist

I hope I'll understand some day
What's the meaning of this crazy game
It is real and pure
T.N.T. for the brain

If there's no pain
Rules are still the same
I'm with you, just lead me
I'm ready to play
T.N.T. for the brain

Don't be scared and have no fear
I will show you what it means
If there's no pain
Rules are still the same
I'm with you, just lead me
I'm ready to play

T.N.T. for the brain

What you feel is insane
It is love and not a game
T.N.T. for the brain

Dining in

Warm inside, yeah
I'd like to direct your attention
To something that needs directing to
A lot of people talk about
Dining in and eating out
I guess that's what this song's about

I know this is not a dining room conversation
And you don't have to listen if
you don't have the time
But let me remind you in case
you don't already know
Dining out can happen down below

Everybody's talkin' 'bout
Wanting that and needing this
I'd just like to know
If you want to learn a different kind of kiss

So won't you go down where it's warm inside
Go down where I cannot hide
Go down where all life begins
Go down that's where my love is

Now what could be better than a home cooked meal
How you want to eat it depends on how you feel
You can eat all you want and you don't get fat
Now where else can you go for a meal like that
It's not fair to be selfish or stingy
Every girl should experience eating out
Sometimes when I come home
from a hard day at work

Colonel Sanders says it best
"Finger lickin' good"
Let's put what you've learned to the test
Can you make a fire without using wood
Are you still hungry; aren't you glad we came
I'm glad you brought your raincoat
I think it's beginning to rain

That's where my love is
Come inside
That's where all life begins
It's warm inside


Madonna

What is love but the strangest of feelings?

What is love but the strangest of feelings?
A sin you swallow for the rest of your life?
You`ve been looking for someone to believe in
To love you, until your eyes run dry

She lives on disillusion road
We go where the wild blood flows
On our bodies we share the same scar
Love me, wherever you are

How do you love with fate full of rust?
How do you turn what the savage take?
You`ve been looking for someone you can trust
Who will love you, again and again

How do you love in a house without feelings?
How do you turn what that savage take?
I`ve been looking for someone to believe in
Love me, again and again

She lives by disillusions close
We go where the wild blood flows
On our bodies, we share the same scar

How do you love on a night without feelings?
She says "love, i hear sound, i see fury"
She says "love`s not a hostile condition"
Love me, wherever you are

Love me, wherever you are
Love me, wherever you are
Wherever you are

(Razor Light)

And I would do anything for love,

And I would do anything for love,
I'd run right into hell and back,
I would do anything for love,
I'll never lie to you and thats a fact.

But I'll never forget the way you feel right now
- Oh no -
- No way -
And I would do anything for love,
But I won't do that,
No I won't do-

Anything for love,
Oh I would do anything for love,
I would do anything for love,
But I won't do that,
No I won't do that

And some days it don't come easy,
And some days it don't come hard
Some days it don't come at all,
And these are the days that never end.

And some nights you're breathing fire,
And some nights you're carved in ice,
Some nights you're like nothing I've ever
Seen before, or will again.

And maybe I'm crazy,
Oh it's crazy and it's true,
I know you can save me,
No one else can save me now but you.

As long as the planets are turning,
As long as the stars are burning,
As long as your dreams are coming true-
You better believe it!

That I would do anything for love!
And I'll be there till the final act
And I would do anything for love!
And I'll take the vow and seal a pact

But I'll never forgive myself if we don't go all the way,
Tonight.

And I would do anything for love!
Oh I would do anything for love!
Oh I would do anything for love!
But I won't do that!
No I won't do that!

I would do anything for love,
Anything you've been dreaming of,
But I just won't do that...

I would do anything for love,
Anything you've been dreaming of,
But I just won't do that...

I would do anything for love,
Anything you've been dreaming of,
But I just won't do that...

And some days I pray for Silence,
And some days I pray for Soul,
Some days I just pray to the God
Of Sex and Drums and Rock 'N' Roll.

And some nights I lose the feeling
And some nights I lose control
Some nights I just lose it all
When I watch you dance and the thunder rolls

And maybe I'm lonely,
That's all I'm qualified to be,
There's just one and only,
One and only promise I can keep.

As long as the wheels are turning,
As long as the fires are burning,
As long as your prayers are coming true
You better believe it!

That I would do anything for love!
And you know it's true and thats a fact,
I would do anything for love!
And there'll never be no turning back

But I'll never do it better than I do it with you,
So long
So long

And I would do anything for love,
Oh, I would do anything for love,
I would do anything for love,
But I won't do that, No,
No. No, I won't do that!

I would do anything for love,
Anything you've been dreaming of,
But I just won't do that...

I would do anything for love,
Anything you've been dreaming of,
But I just won't do that...

I would do anything for love,
Anything you've been dreaming of,
But I just won't do that...

I would do anything for love,
Anything you've been dreaming of,
But I just won't do that...

I would do anything for love,
Anything you've been dreaming of,
But I just won't do that...

I would do anything for love,
Anything you've been dreaming of,
But I just won't do that...

I would do anything for love,
Anything you've been dreaming of,
But I just won't do...

But I'll never stop dreaming of you every night of my life,
No way

And I would do anything for love,
Oh I would do anything for love,
Oh I would do anything for love,
But I won't do that,
No I won't do that.

Girl: Will you raise me up?
Will you help me down?
Will you help get me right out of this Godforsaken town?
Will you make it all a little less cold?

Meat Loaf: I can do that!
I can do that!

Girl: Will you hold me sacred,
Will you hold me tight.
Will you colorize my life,
I'm so sick of black and white!
Can you make it all a little less old.

Meat Loaf: I can do that!
Oh, Oh, I can do that!

Girl: Will you make me some magic with your own two hands?
Can you build an Emerald city with these grains of sand?
Can you give me something I can take home?

Meatloaf: I can do that
I can do that

Girl: Will you cater to every fantasy I've got?
Will ya hose me down with holy water - If I get too hot?
Will you take me to places I'll never know?

Meat Loaf: I can do that!
I can do that!

Girl: After a while you'll forget everything,
Just a brief interlude, and a mid-summer night's fling,
Then you'll see that it's time to move on.

Meat Loaf: I won't do that.
I won't do that.

Girl: I know the territory - I've been around,
It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down,
Sooner or later you'll be screwing around.

Meat Loaf: I won't do that!
No I won't do that!

Anything for love,
Oh I would do anything for love!
I would do anything for love!
But I won't do that!
No I won't do that...

Ebony and ivory

Today this is the song I sing...
may we forget the issue of colour
and realise we are all human.
All humans have the ability to make mistakes
or succeed may this bring out the best in all.

Ebony and ivory live together in perfect harmony
Side by side on my piano keyboard, oh lord, why dont we?
We all know that people are the same where ever we go
There is good and bad in everyone,
We learn to live, we learn to give
Each other what we need to survive together alive.

Ebony and ivory live together in perfect harmony
Side by side on my piano keyboard, oh lord why dont we?
Ebony, ivory living in perfect harmony
Ebony, ivory, ooh

We all know that people are the same where ever we go
There is good and bad in everyone,
We learn to live, we learn to give
Each other what we need to survive together alive.

Ebony and ivory live together in perfect harmony
Side by side on my piano keyboard, oh lord why dont we?

Paul Mc Cartney

Sun rise Sun set

Is this the little girl I carried?
Is this the little boy at play?
I don't remember growing older
When did they?

When did she get to be a beauty?
When did he get to be so tall?
Wasn't it yesterday
When they were small?

Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly flow the days
Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
Blossoming even as we gaze

Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly fly the years
One season following another
Laden with happiness and tears

What words of wisdom can I give them?
How can I help to ease their way?
Now they must learn from one another
Day by day

They look so natural together
Just like two newlyweds should be
Is there a canopy in store for me?

Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly flow the days
Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
Blossoming even as we gaze

Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly fly the years
One season following another
Laden with happiness and tears

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
No one 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
Michael Buble

What do you want from me?

Just listening to this song made me think about
how I felt when my relationship came to an end.
As a sub I give myself completely.
My life becomes like music and my man the conductor.
As it all came crumbling down the music stopped playing
without the conductor I am nothing,
like a sheet of music that remains unplayed
waiting and hoping for a conductor to strike a chord.

There is one thing that I would die for
It's the music, my life is in your hands
Cause when you're near me,
your love is all I need
Now I can't imagine
What do you want from me?
It's not how it used to be
You've taken my life away
Ruining everything

Give me something I can rely on
Far away from the life that I once knew
What does it matter, that's all I have to say
And I can't imagine

What do you want from me?
It's not how it used to be
You've taken my life away
Ruining everything

Is nothing sacred anymore?

I don't know the reason why
but I seem to be withdrawing
And saying final goodbyes to
friends who mean the world to me.

If a love as strong as ours couldn't
make it all the way
Can anything make sense at all?
If a love so deep and true
couldn't stand the test of time
Then Mount Everest could slide
and Jerusalem could fall

Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people use to keep,
when love was worth fighting for?
If we can say goodbye.
If we can say goodbye.
Is nothing sacred anymore?

I can hear the final words
Every sentence that was said
Don't know what turned our lives around
It doesn't matter who was right
There's no justice in a dream
Never thought a heart could break
without making any sound.

Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people use to keep.
When love was worth fighting for?
If we can say goodbye.
If we can say goodbye.
Is nothing sacred anymore?

Our love was as certain as the dawn.
As solid and safe as any love could be.
Our love was a star to wish upon.
And you thought that I'd saved you.
Could've sworn that you saved me.

Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people use to keep
When love was worth fighting for?
If we can say goodbye.
If we can say goodbye.
Is nothing sacred anymore?

Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people use to keep
When love was worth fighting for?
If we can say goodbye.
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymoreMeatloaf

I read your book

I read your book
And I find it strange
That I know that girl
and I know her world
A little too well
And I didn't know
By giving my hand
That I would be written down,
sliced around,
Passed down
Among strangers hands

Three days in Rome
Where do we go
I'll always remember
Three days in Rome

Never again
Would I see your face
You carry a pen and a paper
and no time and words you waste
You're a voyeur
The worst kind of thief
To take what happened
To write down everything that went on
Between you and me

Three days in Rome
And I stand alone
I'll always remember
Three days in Rome
Sheryl Crow

If I wait for just a second more

If I wait for just a second more
I'll know I'll forget what I came here for
My head was so full of things to say
But as I open my lips all my words slip away
ohhh ohhhh and anyway

I can't believe you want to turn the page
And move your life on to another stage
You can change the chapter you can change the book
But the story remains the same if you take a look

For the time we've had
I don't want to be
A page in your Diary babe
For the good the bad
I don't want to see
A page in your Diary babe
For the happy the sad
I don't want to be
Another page in your Diary

Perhaps if I held you I could win again
I could take your hand we'd talk and maybe play
That look in eyes I always recognise
Well tell me eveything is gonna be fine
You gonna be mine
For a long time

For the time we've had
I don't want to be
A page in your Diary babe
For the good the bad
I don't want to see
A page in your Diary babe
For the happy the sad
I don't want to be
Another page in your Diary

For the time we've had
I don't want to be
A page in your Diary babe
For the good the bad
I don't want to be
A page in your Diary babe
For the happy the sad
I don't want to be
Just another page in your history
Alison Moyet

Smile though your heart is aching

Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though its breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, youll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
Youll see the sun come shining through for you

Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
Thats the time you must keep on trying
Smile, whats the use of crying?
Youll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile
Nat Cole

I was standing all alone against the world outside

I was standing all alone against the world outside
You were searching for a place to hide
Lost and lonely, now you've given me the will to survive
When we're hungry, love will keep us alive

Don't you worry, sometimes you've just gotta let it ride
The world is changing right before your eyes
Now I've found you, there's no more emptiness inside
When we're hungry, love will keep us alive

I would die for you, climb the highest mountain
Baby, there's nothing I wouldn't do
Now I've found you, there's no more emptiness inside
When we're hungry, love will keep us alive

I would die for you, climb the highest mountain
Baby, there's nothing I wouldn't do

I was standing all alone against the world outside
You were searching for a place to hide
Lost and lonely, now you've given me the will to survive
When we're hungry, love will keep us alive

When we're hungry, love will keep us alive
When we're hungry, love will keep us alive

I bruise easily

Opportunity knocks only once,
but temptation bangs on your door for years.
And with each knock we grow
Some times life knocks us up
Sometimes the knocks bruise us
But we get up and keep going....

What keeps you going?

My skin is like a map, of where my heart has been
And I can't hide the marks, but it's not a negative thing
So I let down my guard, drop my defences, down by my clothes
I'm learning to fall, with no safety net, to cushion the blow

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me
There's a mark you leave, like a love heart, carved on a tree
I bruise easily, can't scratch the surface without moving me
Underneath I bruise easily, I bruise easily

I've found your finger prints on a glass of wine
Do you know you're leaving them all over this heart of mine too
But if I never take this leap of faith I'll never know
So I'm learning to fall with no safety net to cushion the blow

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me
There's a mark you leave, like a love heart carved on a tree
I bruise easily, can't scratch the surface without moving me
Underneath I bruise easily, I bruise easily

Anyone who, can touch you, can hurt you, or heal you
Anyone who, can reach you, can love you, or leave you

So be gentle
So be gentle
So be gentle
So be gentle

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me
There's a mark you leave, like a love heart, carved on a tree
I bruise easily, can't scratch the surface without moving me
Underneath I bruise easily,

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me
There's a mark you leave, like a love heart, carved on a tree
I bruise easily, can't scratch the surface without moving me
Underneath I bruise easily, I bruise easily

I bruise easily
I bruise easily

So easy to shut the door on our own life

It is so easy to shut the door and walk away.
Especially in today's current economic climate.
We wait for answers yet never get them
We knock on doors we think are unanswered
but do we ever allow ourselves to stop
and wait for those questions to be answered?

Are you kind to yourself?
Or have you given up?
Shut the door on your own life?

So easy to shut the door on our own life
It takes courage and perserverance
to stand up again dust yourself off and try again
but it is only through trying that we get any where
We just need to know we are knocking on the right door...


Why do we never get an answer
When we're knocking at the door?
With a thousand million questions
About hate and death and war

'Cause when we stop and look around us
There is nothing that we need
In a world of persecution
That is burning in its greed

Why do we never get an answer
When we're knocking at the door?
Because the truth is hard to swallow
That's what the war of love is for

It's not the way that you say it
When you do those things to me
It's more the way that you mean it
When you tell me what will be

And when you stop and think about it
You won't believe it's true
That all the love you've been giving
Has all been meant for you

I'm looking for someone to change my life
I'm looking for a miracle in my life
And if you could see what it's done to me
To lose the the love I knew
Could safely lead me through

Between the silence of the mountains
And the crashing of the sea
There lies a land I once lived in
And she's waiting there for me.

But in the grey of the morning
My mind becomes confused
Between the dead and the sleeping
And the road that I must choose

I'm looking for someone to change my life
I'm looking for a miracle in my life
And if you could see what it's done to me
To lose the the love I knew
Could safely lead me to
The land that I once knew
To learn as we grow old
The secrets of our souls

It's not the way that you say it
When you do those things to me
It's more the way you really mean it
When you tell me what will be

Why do we never get an answer
When we're knocking at the door?
With a thousand million questions
About hate and death and war

'Cause when we stop and look around us
There is nothing that we need
In a world of persecution
That is burning in its greed

Why do we never get an answer
When we're knocking at the door?
Justin Hayward

I Know just how to whisper

I know just how to whisper,
And I know just how to cry;
I know just where to find the answers;
And I know just how to lie.
I know just how to fake it,
And I know just how to scheme;
I know just when to face the truth,
And then I know just when to dream.
And I know just where to touch you,
And I know just what to prove;
I know when to pull you closer,
And I know when to let you loose.
And I know the night is fading,
And I know that times gonna fly;
And Im never gonna tell you everything
Ive got to tell you,
But I know Ive got to give it a try.
And I know the roads to riches,
And I know the ways to fame;
I know all the rules
And then I know how to break em
And I always know the name of the game.

But I dont know how to leave you,
And Ill never let you fall;
And I dont know how you do it,
Making love out of nothing at all

Every time I see you all the rays of the sun
Are streaming through the waves in your hair;
And every star in the sky is taking aim
At your eyes like a spotlight,
The beating of my heart is a drum, and its lost
And its looking for a rhythm like you.
You can take the darkness from the pit of the night
And turn into a beacon burning endlessly bright.
Ive got to follow it, cause everything I know,
well its nothing till I give it to you.

I can make the run or stumble,
I can make the final block;
And I can make every tackle,
at the sound of the whistle,
I can make all the stadiums rock.
I can make tonight forever,
Or I can make it disappear by the dawn;
And I can make you every promise that has ever been made,
And I can make all your demons be gone.

But Im never gonna make it without you,
Do you really want to see me crawl?
And Im never gonna make it like you do,
Making love out of nothing at all.

Unwritten

I am unwritten, can't read my mind,
I'm undefined
I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand,
ending unplanned

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Oh, oh, oh

I break tradition, sometimes my tries,
are outside the lines
We've been conditioned to not make mistakes,
but I can't live that way

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words
that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words
that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Solitaire

A thousand nights, I've spent alone,
Solitaire, to the bone,
But I don't mind, I'm my own best friend,
From the beginning, to the end,
My life, my heart, black night,
dark star, Capricorn

December's child, the only one,
What I do, is what I've done,
I realise, I get so cold,
When I was young I was already old,
My life, my heart, black night,
dark star, Capricorn

I always knew, the only way,
Is never live, beyond today,
They proved me right,
They proved me wrong,
But they could never last this long,
My life, my heart, black night,
dark star, Capricorn

Desperado

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses,
You've been out ridin fences for so long now,
Oh and you're a hard one, but I know that you've got your reasons,
The things that are pleasin' you can hurt you somehow.

Don't you draw the Queen of Diamonds boy, she'll beat you if she's able.
You know the Queen of Hearts is always your best bet.
Now it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon your table,
But you only want the ones you can't get.

Desperado, you ain't gettin no younger,
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin you home,
And freedom, oh freedom, well that's just some people talkin.
Your prison is walking through this world all alone.

Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime,
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine,
It's hard to tell the nighttime from the day.
And you're losin all your highs and lows,
Ain't it funny how the feelin goes away?

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses,
Come down from your fences- open the gates.
It may be rainin, but there's a rainbow above you.
You'd better let somebody love you,
LET SOMEBODY LOVE YOU.
You'd better let somebody love you,
before it's too late.[Eagles]

Rolling Stone

Like A Rolling Stone"

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you ?
People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall"
You thought they were all kiddin' you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hangin' out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't seem so proud
About having to be scrounging for your next meal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone ?

You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
And nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street
And now you find out you're gonna have to get used to it
You said you'd never compromise
With the mystery tramp, but know you realize
He's not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And say do you want to make a deal?

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone ?
You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns
When they all come down and did tricks for you
You never understood that it ain't no good
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
Ain't it hard when you discover that
He really wasn't where it's at
After he took from you everything he could steal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone ?

Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
They're drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made
Exchanging all precious gifts
But you'd better take your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone ?

Leader of the pack

The Leader Of The Pack
Is she really going out with him?
Well, there she is. Let's ask her.
Betty, is that Jimmy's ring you're wearing?
Mm-hmm
Gee, it must be great riding with him
Is he picking you up after school today?
Uh-uh
By the way, where'd you meet him?

I met him at the candy store
He turned around and smiled at me
You get the picture? (yes, we see)
That's when I fell for (the leader of the pack)

My folks were always putting him down (down, down)
They said he came from the wrong side of town
(whatcha mean when ya say that he came from the wrong side of town?)
They told me he was bad
But I knew he was sad
That's why I fell for (the leader of the pack)

One day my dad said, "Find someone new"
I had to tell my Jimmy we're through
(whatcha mean when ya say that ya better go find somebody new?)
He stood there and asked me why
But all I could do was cry
I'm sorry I hurt you (the leader of the pack)

[Spoken:]
He sort of smiled and kissed me goodbye
The tears were beginning to show
As he drove away on that rainy night
I begged him to go slow
But whether he heard, I'll never know

Look out! Look out! Look out! Look out!

I felt so helpless, what could I do?
Remembering all the things we'd been through
In school they all stop and stare
I can't hide the tears, but I don't care
I'll never forget him (the leader of the pack)

The leader of the pack - now he's gone
The leader of the pack - now he's gone
The leader of the pack - now he's gone
The leader of the pack - now he's gone
[Fade]

Out door type

Always had a roof above me
Always paid the rent
I never, set foot inside a tent
Couldn’t build a fire to save my life
I lied about being, the outdoor type
I’ve never slept out underneath the stars
Closest that I came to that was one time my car,
Broke down for an hour
In the suburbs, at night
I lied about being, the outdoor type
Too scared to let you know
I knew what you were looking for
Lied until I’d fit the bill
God bless the great indoors
I lied about being, the outdoor type
I’ve never owned a sleeping bag, let alone a mountain bike
I can’t go away with you on a rocking climbing weekend
What if something’s on TV and it’s never shown again
Just as well I’m not invited
I’m afraid of heights
I lied about being, the outdoor type
Never learned to swim
Can’t grow a beard or even fight
I lied about being, the outdoor type
THE OUTDOOR TYPE
(T. Morgan)

We often let our future be dictated by the past.
As babies we are born fearless and as we grow experiences teach us to be aware and often afriad of things.
Building fears of the future the unknown -
the past seems so much less daunting as it is past and we look back with rose tinted glasses.
It is much easier to allow our future to be guided by the past -
then we have excuses for why we don't think we will make it - but the past obviously can also be a instigator if we look back and see what we have achieved and allow our selves to be free of our failings...

As humans we are bound to make mistakes
it is important that we learn from those and
allow our selves to move onwards with hope
and love in our hearts...



Objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are

The skies were pure and the fields were green
And the sun was brighter than its ever been
When I grew up with my best friend kenny
We were close as any brothers than you ever knew
It was always summer and the future called
We were ready for adventures and we wanted them all
And there was so much left to dream and so much time to make it real

But I can still recall the sting of all the tears when he was gone
They said he crashed and burned
I know Ill never learn why any boy should die so young
We were racing, we were soldiers of fortune
We got in trouble but we sure got around
There are times I think I see him peeling out of the dark
I think hes right behind me now and hes gaining ground

But it was long ago and it was far away, oh God it seems so very far
And if life is just a highway, then the soul is just a car
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are

And when the sun descended and the night arose
I heard my father cursing everyone he knows
He was dangerous and drunk and defeated
And corroded by failure and envy and hate
There were endless winters and the dreams would freeze
Nowhere to hide and no leaves on the trees

And my fathers eyes were blank as he hit me again and again and again
I know I still believe hed never let me leave, I had to run away alone
So many threats and fears, so many wasted years before my life became
My own
And though the nightmares should be over
Some of the terrors are still intact
Ill hear that ugly coarse and violent voice
And then he grabs me from behind and then he pulls me back

There was a beauty living on the edge of town
And she always put the top up and the hammer down
And she taught me everything Ill ever know
About the mystery and the muscle of love
The stars would glimmer and the moon would glow
Im in the back seat with my julie like a romeo
And the signs along the highway all said, caution! kids at play!

Those were the rights of spring and we did everything
There was salvation every night
We got our dreams reborn and our upholstery torn
But everything we tried was right
She used her body just like a bandage
She used my body just like a wound
Ill probably never know where she disappeared
But I can see her rising up out of the back seat now
Just like an angel rising up from a tomb

And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are

She used her body just like a bandage
She used my body just like a wound
Ill probably never know where she disappeared
But I can see her rising up out of the back seat now

I May Be Crazy

I am known to my friends as MAD M!

There is never a dull moment when I am around,
so if you want to be a friend of mine in real life you need to know how to let down those barriers that you put up to the world.
I am not the kind of person who judges let me in and you have a friend for life.
There is only one thing I ask of friends and that is respect, respect for themselves and me.
If you respect yourself you treat others with respect the world becomes a great place to live in.

Friday night I crashed your party
Saturday I said I'm sorry
Sunday came and trashed me out again
I was only having fun
Wasn't hurting anyone
And we all enjoyed the weekend for a change

I've been stranded in the combat zone
I walked through Bedford Stuy alone
Even rode my motorcycle in the rain
And you told me not to drive
But I made it home alive
So you said that only proves that I'm insane

You may be right
I may be crazy
But it just may be a lunatic you're looking for
Turn out the light
Don't try to save me
You may be wrong for all I know
But you may be right

Remember how I found you you there
Alone in your electric chair
I told you dirty jokes until you smiled
You were lonely for a man
I said take me as I am
'Cause you might enjoy some madness for a while

Now think of all the years you tried to
Find someone to satisfy you
I might be as crazy as you say
If I'm crazy then it's true
That it's all because of you
And you wouldn't want me any other way
You may be right
I may be crazy
But it just may be a lunatic you're looking for
It's too late to fight
It's too late to change me
You may be wrong for all I know
But you may be right

You may be right
I may be crazy
But it just may be a lunatic you're looking for
Turn out the light
Don't try to save me
You may be wrong for all I know
But you may be right
You may be wrong but you may be right
You may be wrong but you may be right

You May Be Right

Telegraph Road

This song by Dire Straits has always been close to my heart
and I feel it depicts today's world so well.
In life we set out and try and make a path for our selves.
Most of us would just be satisfied being happy and living a simple life but there are always things and people who come into our lives and some times we are unable to avoid being affested by them.

A long time ago came a man on a track
walking thirty miles with a sack on his back
and he put down his load where he thought it was the best
he made a home in the wilderness
he built a cabin and a winter store
and he ploughed up the ground by the cold lake shore
the other travellers came riding down the track
and they never went further, no and they never went back
then came the churches then came the schools
then came the lawyers then came the rules
then came the trains and the trucks with their loads
and the dirty old track was the telegraph road

Then came the mines - then came the ore
then there was the hard times then there was a war
telegraph sang a song about the world outside
telegraph road got so deep and so wide
like a rolling river. . .

And my radio is saying tonight it's gonna freeze
people driving home from the factories
there's six lanes of traffic
three lanes moving slow. . .

I used to like to go to work but they shut it down
I've got a right to go to work but there's no work here to be found
yes and they say we're gonna have to pay what's owed
we're gonna have to reap from the seed that's been sowed
and the birds up on the wires and the telegraph poles
they can always fly away from this rain and this cold
you can here them singing out their telegraph code
all the way down the telegraph road

You know I'd sooner forget but I remember those nights
when life was just a bet on a race between the lights
you had your head on my shoulder you had your hand in my hair
now you act a little colder like you don't seem to care
but believe in me baby and I'll take you away
from out of this darkness and into the day
from these rivers of headlights these rivers of rain
from the anger that lives on the streets with these names
'cos I've run every red light on memory lane
I've seen desperation explode into flames
and I don't want to see it again. . .

From all of these signs saying sorry but we're closed
all the way down the telegraph road .

Nights in White Satin

Nights in white satin
never reaching the end
Letters I've written
never meaning to send
Beauty I'd always missed
with these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say any more

'Cause I love you
Yes I love you
O how I love you

Gazing at people
some hand in hand
Just what I'm going through
they can't understand
Some try to tell me
thoughts they can not defend
Just what you want to be
you will be in the end

And I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you

Nights in white satin
never reaching the end
Letters I've written
never meaning to send
Beauty I've always missed
with these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say any more

'Cause I love you
Yes I love you
O how I love you
