Alphabetical Order
ALL WE NEED
When I hold you in my arms
Nothing here could bring you harm
So take my hand and don't be scared
'Cuz what we have is what we share
Someone said that love was blind
Then let them come and take my eyes
When you want, you have to give
'Cuz in my heart is where you live
All we need is love
When a flower blooms and dies
It will always symbolize
Romeo and Juliet
Please let me interperet
-----------------------------------------------
BLAME
Baby I can't see you anymore
Ever since the day you showed me the door
Baby I don't know what to do
'Cuz I still can't get over you
I can't get over you
I can't eat, I can't sleep
I don't feel the same
Would you forgive me
You know I'm the one to blame
'Cuz I, I need you
I wanna get outta the rain
Would you forgive me
You know I'm the one to blame
Feel like two left feet that don't know how to dance
Only would you give me one more last chance
'Cuz I promise to do all I can for you baby
There's nothing more I'd want than to be your man
Top be your man
----------------------------------------
CARRY ME
Well I sailed a many ocean
Many ocean old and new
And the waters always carry me to you
She was cryin' when I left her
Yes she cried the ocean blue
But I know the sea will carry me to you
Carry me to the land across the sea
Carry me cuz' she's waiting on the shoreline carry me
Now the ocean's of her own mind
As are many women to
But I know the sea will carry me to you
Well I conquered no mans journey
That I'm not acustomed to
But I know the sea will carry me to you
Carry me
Past the islands across the ocean to my homeland
---------------------------------------------
DON'T KNOW IF I WANNA KNOW
That ring on your finger
Promises you to another man
What you're doing beside me
Is something I don't understand
Is this a trap your setting
Will lightning strike me from above
And could you be here with me
Because you're really not in love
Don't know if I wanna know
The reaon why you followed me home
The reason why you stayed
And didn't run away
Back to him
What's he gonna say
If he finds out about me
Will you remember not to smile
If we pass by on the street
Love makes no promises
So if you're left out in the rain
Don't fight fate baby
Because it's fate that you should blame
--------------------------------------------------
FLUTTER BY BUTTERFLY
I met a joker and I played the fool
I'm livin' life without a care
Bouncing from rule to rule
I played with fire
And yes I got burned
Now I'm sitting in the gutter
Just thinking of what I learned
You play the game
And you take a chance
If beauty is the devil
Then I'll ask for one last dance
A heart of sorrow and a life of grief
For mistakes that I have made
There is no sign of relief
So flutter by dear butterfly
Nothings gonna stand in your way
So flutter by dear butterfly
Take me on a trip out on your wing someday
A fallen angel
Comes crashing to the ground
To watch me from the shadows
And scream a silent sound
Sometimes I feel like
My life is such a mess
And I'm searching for the answers
That somehow suit me best
There's large injections of open space
Somehow lodged inside my brain
That don't even leave a trace
I keep my problems locked up
So you can't see
So deep inside my head
Under lock and key
---------------------------------------------
HEY HOW'VE YA' BEEN
Tonight tonight it's been such a good time
We have been here for so long
Laughin and jokin' at things that ain't funny
One more drink one more laugh one more song
Hey, Say how've ya' been
Thanks for askin' I'm doing alright
Hey, sure nice to see an old friend
Who will stay up drinking all night
Well this one's a toast to the man in the corner
Standing up and drowning his pain
And this one goes out to the girl at the bar
Who says everyone is insane
Well I'm smelling sweet smells of wine and cheap perfume
Drinking each draught pitcher dry
We're talking 'bout old times when things were'nt so easy
What brought us here, tell us how, tell us why
A voice bellows out
Somewhere near the bar
Telling us it is last call
We're rushing quite slowly to get one last drinkl
And as we stand up we give it our all
--------------------------------------------
IN TIMES LIKE THESE
Times like these not hard to come by
Times like these hard to make it through
Times like these always come and go
In times of doubt when no one knows
Times like these are arresting
Apathy is benign protesting
We can't face what fates suggesting
In times like these
Times like these the worls seems on your shoulders
Bent to bare the burden we all hold
You might think your heart is growing colder
It's not your soul you cannot see
It's times like these
I don't wanna see the end
Cuz' this is all I have my friend
Times like these self fulfilling
Zealots rise to lead the willing
They sweetly scent the stench of killing
In times like these
-----------------------------------------------
JUST BREATHE
Pretty simple feelings but complicated circumstances
I can't help myself but to take these chances
When the walls come down and leave me exposed
We'l I'll know this is what I asked for
And this is what I chose
You don't have to do a thing
No nothing at all
Lay your face upon my shoulder
And in love we'll fall
You might get caught up in the pleasures of the pain
But I can't help myself and I cannot refrain
Can't imagine where it is I came from
And all this baggage just won't fit
Under my thumb
And are you sure you're up for something like this
It may be quite a jump baby
It may be quite a risk
-----------------------------------------------------
KICKIN' CAN
I gave you passion, I gave you love
And then you tied me to your bed and said it wasn't enough
It ain't the anger, it ain't the pain
It's the addiction to the friction makes me do it again
Well I know the things you like to do
I've done them all for you
And now that we're though
My heart bleeds
I'm your whippin man, kickin' can
Tourtured game, your feel good pain
Watched you smoke it watched you stroke it
Drenched in leather makes it better
Ain't the rain that makes it wetter
Here it is so come n' get er'
How I want you wish to haunt you
Lying helpless makes you selfish
Those that see me want to be me, please don't ever free me
-------------------------------------------
PRAY
I've seen you, Standing on the corner
So taboo, With nothing in your eyes
Turn away, there's noting left here for you
Your dismay, when your wearing your own disguise
Did I hear you say pray for me now
Over and over
Make a plea, to the one that stands before you
Then you'll see, you've been your own demise
Could it be, the life you once led bores you
Now forsee or live in your world full of lies
-----------------------------------------
RADIO
I'm going crazy honey, my sight is hazy honey
I'm going crazy to get you off my mind
The beat is rhythmic, You caught the groove
There's something inside making your body move
You're heart is poundin', Just like a drum
You get so close with my guitars every strum
You'll start to shimmy, Shiver and shake
Grab on to something cuz' your worlds 'bout to quake
You'll hum a while, Then you'll catch on
Transmissions fadin' baby soon I'll be gone
Radio, Radio, I'm inside your radio (repeated)
I'm on your shoulder, Bug in your ear
I'm right behind you everything that you hear
A good vibration, To soothe your soul
Just take in stages or you'll lose all control
You heard it comin', Now for a while
I'm waiting for you at the end of your dial
I'm your receiver, I'm crystal clear
You'll hear the music and you'll know that I'm near
-----------------------------------------
SCATTERED
It happens to all father's sons
Mother's daughters, everyone
There comes a time when you must run
Sisters, borthers come undone
We throw ourselves into the wind
Some come back round again
We turn to leave and to begin
The fact the truth the loathe the sin
I can see you after all this time
A perfect memory safe inside my mind
Life's a journey somday we all find
We're scattered
Everyone there comes a day
There's nothing you can say
Cuz' it's always been that way
No you just can't stay
Some for money
Some for dreams
For love of crazy schemes
Some truly don't know why
It doesn't matter
We're all scattered
-------------------------------------------
SHARE YOUR BODY
Hey now don't be greedy
Come on share your body
It's your right to be naughty
Every once and a while
I know you can feel it
Try not to conceal it
The pleasures so real
Somethings wrong with my head
Temperatures turning me read
Body I wanna surround
Somethings wrong with my mind
Walking a real fine line
Never looking down
Hey now you amaze me
Passion drives me crazy
It's the taste that you feed me
Every once and a while
I know you can feel it
Try not to conceal it
The moments so real
You wanna know how I feel about you
Not often a fantasy becomes real
----------------------------------------
SISTER MARY
Well Sister Mary
I remember you
The nights we'd sit alone
With nothing better to do
You'ld talk religion
And all about my soul
And the holy rollers
Who don't know where we'll go When we die
Well Sister Mary
I think I've got a plan
It might not mean much to you
But try and understand
I ain't thinkin' about where I'm gonna go
Lifes to short for that
Just sit back, enjoy the show
And get high
Sister Mary
I still remember
Your heart was as pure as the snow
Sister Mary
Well I can't forget ya'
Can't help wonderin' where did you go
Sister Mary
Well Sister Mary
Sorry I done you wrong
But would you give me strength
The strength to carry on
Maybe someday
Maybe we could share a cloud
If that's to much to ask
Then tell me that you were proud
'Cuz I tried
Well Sister Mary
Memories will fade away
But I'll remember you until my dying day
If I could have seen the world through your eyes
I might have had the chance to tell you good bye
---------------------------------------------
SMELL OF YOUIR CIGAR (GRANDPA)
I remember when you used to sit me on your knee
Bounce me up and down singing songs to me
I was only five years old you sat me on your lap
I thought that I was driving, all you could do was laugh
I can still remember the smell of your cigar
The way you told me stories of your old Model T car
The nights we'd sit alone on the porch and count the stars
I can still remember the smell of your cigar
Highschool graduation the breeze was soft and cool
I looked out in the crowd but I couldn't you
Dad he started crying mom told me the news
Dad tried to hold them back but the tears broke through
I'm married two kids of my own
Hope my dad can be to them what you were to me
I know that you can hear me when I pray at night
I ask the dear lord please kiss grandpa goodnight
----------------------------------------
SO WHY
Out on the open road she left me
With an open and empty kind of plight
Now I'm livin' the righteous part of lonely
But what she fails to see is that she's giving me delight
I don't wanna try for you
Life is just a ride for you
Searched my soul inside for you
But you'll come back to me
I don't wanna try for you
Life is just a ride for you
So why....
Fade away
Out on the open road she left me
Disappearing in the shadows of the night
I've always felt what is should be
But know it seems, what's right for me has been trite
I don't wanna try for you
Life is just a ride for you
Searched my soul inside for you
But you'll come back to me
I don't wanna try for you
Life is just a ride for you
So why....
Fade away
Out on the open road she left me
I don't wanna try for you
Life is just a ride for you
Searched my soul inside for you
But you'll come back to me
I don't wanna try for you
Life is just a ride for you
So why....
Fade away
----------------------------------------
TAKE ME HOME
Baby I need your love
I wanna be your little
Rub-a-dub-dub
It could feel so good
So good to make you shiver
I'm gonne give you some of those
Love a love quivers
Son of a gun
You still make
My blood run
Take me home
Take me home tonight
We could shack up baby
Oh we could go all night
Livin' is lovin'
And lovin; is livin'
Gonna give you a little gift of my givin'
I knew all along
That you'ld come on strong
Come on baby now
I can't keep up to you
No one can love me
Like the way that you do
You keep me comin'
Comin' back for more
Come tomorrow morning my back will be sore
Slow down baby now
Lets go back to sleep
Who ever said that talk was so cheap
Well I'll see you tomorrow
Until the sun rises
We'll both be here for plenty of surprises
-----------------------------------------------------
THE PRICE
So easy when you were eighteen
Nothing better to chase than the American dream
Crazy 'bout life and the boys on the scene
Getting high and feeling free and green
Growing older seemed to take so long
Life was just a simple summer song
Mama said hey where did we go wrong
But it always turns out that way ya' know
Runnin' wild out in Bobby's car
Drinking whiskey at the local bar
Bobby said someday he'll take you far
But you know it's all talk his heart is in hock
It's all right baby
There ain't no maybe
Mama never told you like she should
There's a price for being good
Little different at twenty one
Staying home now with Bobby's son
He ain't working he's running the gun
And you can't remember why you loved him
Thought the kid would make your hearts grow strong
Whatever he had for you well baby it's gone
Every day lingers on and on
The cars and home don't mean a thing
He can even stuff that diamond ring
------------------------------------------------
WISHING WELL
I wanted you more than you knew
Heart has broken shredded in two
You tried pity killed my confidence
Counted my cards now it makes no sense
You keep looking for a love affair
But you ain't gonna find one here
When the wishing well went dry
You had nobody standing over you
When the wishing well went dry
You had nobody there to shelter you
Wished on a star did not get far
Crossed my fingers lowered the bar
You changed your mind
Now I've got no time
I watched you cry the wishing well dry
-----------------------------------------------
WHO'S THE LONELY ONE
Been walkin' round in circles
Trying to get things straight
But it's been to long now
I guess that it's to late
Been holding on to something
That I guess I'll never have
Can you tell me how a good love
Can go so bad
Who's the lonely one
Now that you're gone
Who will be the one
To write your next love song
Who's the lonely one
Now that you're gone
Who will be the one
To help you carry on
The fragile things in life
Ae a promise and a heart
One without the other
Slowly falls apart
For a knight in shining armour
I guess I wasn't yours
So how can we communicate
When we are slamming doors
-----------------------------------------
YOU WANTED IT
So you wanna be a star
Drink champagne eat caviar
Satin sheets and the shiny cars
But you still don't know who the hell you are
You wanted it
To reach the sky
You needed it to pacify
You wanted it to touch the sky
You needed it to never die
So you wanna sink the world
Pull the plug and watch it swirl
Give self destruction one more whirl
What's the good of an oyster with a broken pearl
Oh I don't know how to live
Help me
I don't know how to give
Help me
So you wann be a star
Drink champagne eat caviar
Satin sheets and the finest cars
Somebody outta tell you who the hell you are
-----------------------------------------------
YOU'RE THE ONE
Sittin' on an old park bench
Trying to think of where you went
As th elovers pass me by
Maybe it was something I said
The words I thought got stuck in my head
Now who said time does fly
Baby you're teh one
I miss you so now I've come undone
'Cuz you were the one for me
'N maybe I treated you wrong
My heart just cannot seem to go on
"Cuz you were the one for me
And the clouds are rolling in
It fits my mood just once again
Now what if I said I'm sorry
And I watch a lonley song bird sing
I wonder if he's wondering
While he's watching me
There were times when I wouldn't give
But how was I to know you were my reason to live
You were one of those things I took for granted
The rain slowly starts to fall
There were times I thought I'd seen it all
But nothings the same without you
