beginning again...
Sailing
It's not far down to paradise
At least it's not for me
And if the wind is right you can sail away
And find tranquility
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me
It's not far to never never land
No reason to pretend
And if the wind is right you can find the joy
Of innocence again
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me
Sailing
Takes me away
To where I've always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
And soon I will be free
Fantasy
It gets the best of me
When I'm sailing
All caught up in the reverie
Every word is a symphony
Won't you believe me
It's not far back to sanity
At least it's not for me
And when the wind is right you can sail away
And find serenity
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me

A song of simple but powerful and poetic lyrics
Forty days and forty nights
Since my baby left this town
Sunshinin' all day long
But the rain keep comin' down
She's my life I need her so
Why she left I just don't know
Forty days and forty nights
Since I set right down and cried
Keep rainin' all the time
But the river is runnin' dry
Lord help me it just ain't right
I love that girl with all-a my might
Forty days and forty nights
Since my baby broke my heart
Searchin' for her in a while
Like a blind man in the dark
Love can make a poor man rich
Or break his heart I don't know which
Forty days and forty nights
Like a ship out on the sea
Prayin' for her each night
That she would come back-a home to me
Life is love and love is right
I hope she come back home tonight
Forty Days And Forty Nights

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone.
It's not warm when she's away.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long anytime she goes away.

Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as I stand inside the rain
Ev'rybody knows
That Baby's got new clothes
But lately I see her ribbons and her bows
Have fallen from her curls.
She takes just like a woman, yes, she does
She makes love just like a woman, yes, she does
And she aches just like a woman
But she breaks just like a little girl.
Queen Mary, she's my friend
Yes, I believe I'll go see her again
Nobody has to guess
hat Baby can't be blessed
Till she sees finally that she's like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamine and her pearls.
She takes just like a woman, yes, she does
She makes love just like a woman, yes, she does
And she aches just like a woman
But she breaks just like a little girl.
It was raining from the first
And I was dying there of thirst
So I came in here
And your long-time curse hurts
But what's worse
Is this pain in here
I can't stay in here
Ain't it clear that?
I just can't fit
Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit
When we meet again
Introduced as friends
Please don't let on that you knew me when
I was hungry and it was your world.
Ah, you fake just like a woman, yes, you do
You make love just like a woman, yes, you do
Then you ache just like a woman
But you break just like a little girl.

One day I walked the road and crossed a field to go by where the hounds ran hard.
And on the master raced: behind the hunters chased to where the path was barred.
One fine young lady's horse refused the fence to clear.
I unlocked the gate but she did wait until the pack had disappeared.
Crop handle carved in bone; sat high upon a throne of finest English leather.
The queen of all the pack, this joker raised his hat and talked about the weather.
All should be warned about this high born Hunting Girl.
She took this simple man's downfall in hand; I raised the flag that she unfurled.
Boot leather flashing and spurnecks the size of my thumb.
This highborn hunter had tastes as strange as they come.
Unbridled passion: I took the bit in my teeth.
Her standing over me on my knees underneath.
My lady, be discrete. I must get to my feet and go back to the farm.
Whilst I appreciate you are no deviate, I might come to some harm.
I'm not inclined to acts refined, if that's how it goes.
Oh, high born Hunting Girl, I'm just a normal low born so and so.
Hunting Girl - Ian Anderson

Uptown girl
She's been living in her uptown world
I bet she's never had a backstreet guy
I bet her momma never told her why
...
She'll say I'm not so tough
Just because
I'm in love
With an uptown girl
She's been living in her white bread world
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now she's looking for a downtown man
That's what I am
Uptown girl
She's my uptown girl
You know I'm in love
With an uptown girl
Billy Joel
(Sorry if I'm yarting too much, I don't think that I'm going to be able to read all the past lyrics!)

I feel it in my fingers
I feel it in my toes
The love that's all around me
And so the feeling grows
It's written on the wind
It's everywhere I go
So if you really love me
Come on and let it show
You know I love you, I always will

Too many broken hearts have fallen in the river
Too many lonely souls have drifted out to sea,
You lay your bets and then you pay the price
The things we do for love, the things we do for love.
Communication is the problem to the answer
You've got her number and your hand is on the phone
The weather's turned and all the lines are down
The things we do for love, the things we do for love.
Like walking in the rain and the snow
When there's nowhere to go
And you're feelin' like a part of you is dying
And you're looking for the answer in her eyes.
You think you're gonna break up
Then she says she wants to make up.
Ooh you made me love you
Ooh you've got a way
Ooh you had me crawling up the wall.
Like walking in the rain and the snow
When there's nowhere to go
And you're feelin' like a part of you is dying
And you're looking for the answer in her eyes.
You think you're gonna break up
Then she says she wants to make up.
Ooh you made me love you
Ooh you've got a way
Ooh you had me crawling up the wall.
A compromise would surely help the situation
Agree to disagree but disagree to part
When after all it's just a compromise of
The things we do for love, the things we do for love....

You made me love you
I didn't want to do it, I didn't want to do it
You made me love you
and all the time you knew it
I guess you always knew it.
You made me happy sometimes, you made me glad
But there were times, Dear, you made me feel so bad
You made me sigh for, I didn't want to tell you
I didn't want to tell you
I want some love that's true, yes I do, deed I do, you know I do
Give me, give me, give me what I cry for
you know you got the brand of kisses that I'd die for
You know you made me love you
Artist: Judy Garland, don't know who wrote it.

The changing of sunlight to moonlight
Reflections of my life, oh, how they fill my eyes
The greetings of people in trouble
Reflections of my life, oh, how they fill my mind
All my sorrows, sad tomorrows
Take me back to my own home
All my cryings (all my cryings), feel I'm dying, dying
Take me back to my own home (oh I'm going home)
I'm changing, arranging, I'm changing
I'm changing everything, ah, everything around me
The world is a bad place, a bad place

Everybody Wants To Rule The World
Welcome to your life
There's no turning back
Even while sleep
We will find you
Acting on your best behaviour
Turn your back on mother nature
Everybody wants to rule the world
It's my own design
It's my own remorse
Help me to decide
Help make the most
Of freedom and of pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world
There's a room where the light won't find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
When they do I'll be right behind you
So glad we've almost made it
So sad they had to fade it
Everybody wants to rule the world
I can't stand this indecision
Married with a lack of vision
Everybody wants to rule the world
Say that you'll never never never need it
One headline why believe it ?
Everybody wants to rule the world
All for freedom and for pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world.

No time for a gentle rain
No time for my watch and chain
No time for revolving doors
No time for the killing floor
No time for the killing floor
There’s no time left for you
No time left for you.

Rossano: La vie est gai,
Dites-moi
Pourquoi,
Chere Mad'moiselle,
Est-ce que
Parce que
Vous m'aimez?
Mitzi: Born on the opposite sides of the sea,
We are as diff'rent as people can be.
Rossano: It's true
Mitzi: And yet you want to marry me.
Rossano: I do!
Mitzi: I've known a few short weeks and yet
Somehow you made my heart forget
All other men I have ever met of view, but you...
Rossano:
Some enchanted evening
When you find your true love,
When you feel her call you
Across a crowded room,
Then fly to her side,
And make her your own
For all through your life you
May dream all alone.
Mitzi: Once you have found her,
Never let her go.
Rossano: Once you have found her,
Never let her go!

Impossible Dream
To dream ... the impossible dream ...
To fight ... the unbeatable foe ...
To bear ... with unbearable sorrow ...
To run ... where the brave dare not go ...
To right ... the unrightable wrong ...
To love ... pure and chaste from afar ...
To try ... when your arms are too weary ...
To reach ... the unreachable star ...
This is my quest, to follow that star ...
No matter how hopeless, no matter how far ...
To fight for the right, without question or pause ...
To be willing to march into Hell, for a Heavenly cause ...
And I know if I'll only be true, to this glorious quest,
That my heart will lie will lie peaceful and calm,
when I'm laid to my rest ...
And the world will be better for this:
That one man, scorned and covered with scars,
Still strove, with his last ounce of courage,
To reach ... the unreachable star ...
Man of La Mancha -- Music by Mitch Leigh. Lyrics by Joe Darion.

I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream
To follow what it means
And I wish on all the rainbows that I see
I wish on all the people who really dream
And I'm wishing on tomorrow, praying it'll comes
And I'm wishing on all the lovin' we've ever done
I never thought I'd see
A time when you would be
So far away from home
So far away from me
Just think of all the moments that we'd spent
I just can't let you go, for me you were meant
And I didn't mean to hurt you, but I know
That in the game of love you reap what you sow
I feel it's time we should make up, baby
I feel it's time for us to get back together
And make the best of things, oh, baby
When we're together, whether or never

When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you
If your heart is in your dream
No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star
As dreamers do
Fate is kind

Be Our Guest
Be our guest! Be our guest!
Our command is your request
It's been years since we've had anybody here
And we're obsessed
With your meal, with your ease
Yes, indeed, we aim to please
While the candlelight's still glowing
Let us help you, We'll keep going
Course by course, one by one
'Til you shout, "Enough! I'm done!"
Then we'll sing you off to sleep as you digest
Tonight you'll prop your feet up
But for now, let's eat up
Be our guest!
Be our guest!
Be our guest!
Please, be our guest!

Burns: Some men hunt for sport,
Others hunt for food,
The only thing I'm hunting for,
Is an outfit that looks good...
See my vest, see my vest,
Made from real gorilla chest,
Feel this sweater, there's no better,
Than authentic Irish setter.
See this hat, 'twas my cat,
My evening wear - vampire bat,
These white slippers are albino
African endangered rhino.
Grizzly bear underwear,
Turtles' necks, I've got my share,
Beret of poodle, on my noodle
It shall rest,
Try my red robin suit,
It comes one breast or two,
See my vest, see my vest,
See my vest.
Like my loafers? Former gophers -
It was that or skin my chauffeurs,
But a greyhound fur tuxedo
Would be best,
So let's prepare these dogs,
Mrs. Potts: Kill two for matching clogs,
Burns: See my vest, see my vest,
Oh please, won't you see my vest.

I walked 47 miles of barbed wire,
I got a cobra-snake for a necktie,
I got a brand new house on the roadside,
Made from rattlesnake hide,
I got a brand new chimney made on top,
Made out of a human skull,
Now come on take a walk with me, Arlene,
And tell me, who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Tombstone hand and a graveyard mind,
Just 22 and I don’t mind dying.
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
I ride around town, with a rattlesnake whip,
Take it easy Arlene, don’t give me no lip,
Who do you love?
Night was dark, and the sky was blue,
Down the alley, the ice-wagon flew,
Heard a bump, and somebody screamed,
You should have heard just what I seen.
Whom do you love?
Who Do You Love

RADAR LOVE
I’ve been drivin‘ all night my hand’s wet on the wheel
There’s a voice in my head that drives my heel
And my baby calls that she needs me here
It’s half past four and I’m shifting gear
When she gets lonely and the longing gets too much
She sends a cable comin‘ in from above
We don’t need to talk at all
We got a thing that’s called radar love
We got a wave in the air

Well, it seems like a year since I kissed my baby good-bye
I could make a lot of women, but I'm not like some other guys
I could find a lot to hold me tight
But I can't make believe that it's right
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight

Bye Bye Baby, baby goodbye .
Bye baby, baby bye bye.
Bye bye baby, don't make me cry
Bye baby, baby bye bye.
You're the one girl in town I'd marry
Girl, I'd marry you now if I were free
I wish it could be.
I could love you but why begin it
'Cos there ain't any future in it,
She's got me and I'm not free, so:
Bye Bye Baby, baby goodbye.

Well toot toot Tootsie goodbye toot toot Tootsie don't cry
That choo choo train that takes me
Away from you no one can tell how sad it makes me
Kiss me Tootsie and then do it over again
Watch for the mail I never fail
If you don't get a letter then you'll know I'm in jail
Toot toot tootsie don't cry toot toot Tootsie goodbye

Jojo was a man who thought he was a loner
But he knew it wouldn’t last.
Jojo left his home in tucson, arizona
For some california grass.
Get back, get back.
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back.
Get back to where you once belonged.

Take it Easy
Well, I'm running down the road
tryin' to loosen my load
I've got seven women on my mind,
Four that wanna own me,
Two that wanna stone me,
One says she's a friend of mine
Take It easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own
wheels drive you crazy
Lighten up while you still can
don't even try to understand
Just find a place to make your stand
and take it easy
Well, I'm a standing on a corner
in Winslow, Arizona
and such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed
Ford slowin' down to take a look
at me

Well, they'll stone ya when you're trying to be so good,
They'll stone ya just a-like they said they would.
They'll stone ya when you're tryin' to go home.
Then they'll stone ya when you're there all alone.
But I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.

On the way back home we sang a song
But our throats were getting dry
Then we saw the man from across the road
With the sunshine in his eyes
Well he lived all alone in his own little home
With a great big gallon jar
There were bottles too, one for me and you
And he said Hey! There you are
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Get it myself from the mountain stream
And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll
And it stoned me
And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like goin' home
And it stoned me
Van Morrison

All day I face, the barren waste, without the taste, of water,
Cool water.
Old Dan and I, with throats burned dry, and souls that cry, for water,
Cool water.
The night are cool, and I'm a fool, each stars a pool, of water,
Cool water.
But with the dawn, I'll wake and yawn, and carry on, to water,
Cool water.
Keep a movin' Dan, don't you listen to him Dan, he's a devil not a man,
and he spreads the burnin' sand, with water.
Dan can't you see, that big green tree, where the waters runnin' free,
and it's waiting there for me, and you.
Water, cool water.
The shadows sway, and seem to say, tonight we pray, for water,
Cool water.
And way up there, He'll hear our prayer, and show us where, there's water,
Cool Water.
Dan's feet are sore, he's yearning for, just one thing more, than water,
Cool water.
Like me, I guess, he'd like to rest, where there's no quest, for water,
Cool, (water) clear, (water) water (water).
Water

Black Water
Well, I built me a raft and she's ready for floatin'
Ol' Mississippi, she's callin' my name
Catfish are jumpin'
That paddle wheel thumpin'
Black water keeps rollin' on past just the same
Old black water, keep on rollin'
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me
Old black water, keep on rollin'
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me
Old black water, keep on rollin'
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me
Yeah, keep on shinin' your light
Gonna make everything, pretty mama
Gonna make everything all right
And I ain't got no worries
'Cause I ain't in no hurry at all

Cómo quieres ser mi amiga
si por ti daría la vida,
si confundo tu sonrisa
por camelo si me miras.
Razón y piel, difícil mezla,
agua y sed, serio problema.
Agua~Jarabe de Palo
How do you want to be my friend
If I would give my life for you,
If I confuse your smile
with the lies you tell
with your gaze.
Logic and skin, a difficult mixture,
water and thirst, a serious problem.
My translation. I'd love it if anyone could do it better...

El derecho de vivir
poeta ho chi minh,
que golpea de Vietnam
a toda la humanidad.
Ningun caton borrara¡
el surco de tu arrozal.
El derecho de vivir en paz.

Well, come on all of you, big strong men,
Uncle Sam needs your help again.
He's got himself in a terrible jam
Way down yonder in Vietnam
So put down your books and pick up a gun,
We're gonna have a whole lotta fun.
And it's one, two, three,
What are we fighting for ?
Don't ask me, I don't give a damn,
Next stop is Vietnam;
And it's five, six, seven,
Open up the pearly gates,
Well there ain't no time to wonder why,
Whoopee! we're all gonna die.
from Vietnam Song by Country Joe & the Fish

Oh my Mother was frightened by a shotgun, they say, That's why I'm such a wonderful shot. I'd be am out in the cactus and I practice all day, And now tell me what have I got. I'm quick on the trigger with targets not much bigger Than a pen point, I'm number one. But my score with a feller is lower than a cellar- Oh you can't get a man with a gun . When I'm with a pistol I sparkle like a crystal, Yes, I shine like the morning sun. But I lose all my luster When with a Bronco Buster. Oh you can't get a man with a gun. With a gun, with a gun, No, you can't get a man with a gun. If I went to battle With someone's herd of cattle You'd have steak when the job was done. But if shot the herder, They'd holler "bloody murder" And you can't shoot a male
In the tail like a quail [!] Oh you can't get a man with a gun. I'm cool, brave and daring To see a lion glaring When I'm out with my Remington But a look from a mister Will raise a fever blister Oh you can't get a man with a gun. Irving Berlin

He’s not into miracles
Sees life all too cynical
The cat has got his tongue
Now she bangs on his drum
He says "Pull the other one"
Bells ring, look what you have done
Emotions leaking out
Her paint’s all over town
What’s that she’s playing?

Oh, draw the blinds
We can shut out the night
Oh, pull up the blankets
Pull the blankets up tight
And there are angels on our curtains
They keep the outside out
And there are lions on our curtains
They lick their wounds
They lick their doubt

The Candy Man
Who can take a sunrise (who can take a sunrise)
Sprinkle it with dew (sprinkle it with dew)
Cover it with choc'late and a miracle or two
The Candy Man (the Candy Man)
Oh, the Candy Man can (the Candy Man can)
The Candy Man can
'Cause he mixes it with love
And makes the world taste good

So we waved our hands as we marched along
and the people smiled as we sang our song
and the world was saved as they listened to the band.
and the Banner-Man held the banner high
he was ten feet tall and he touched the sky
and I wish that I could be a Banner-Man.
Glory
Glory
Glory
listen to the band.
Sing the same old story
ain't it something grand
to be good as you can
like a Banner-Man !
And the drums went Boom as the cornets play
and the tuba "umpa''d" all the way
and the kids and the dogs were laughing as they ran.
And the Banner-Man held the banner high
with an Allelujah in his eye
and I wish that I could be a Banner-Man.
Glory
Glory
Glory...
So we reached the square on the top of the hill
and the music stopped and we stood still
and a few were saved and the people said
Amen
.
Then we all got up and we formed a queue
and the drums went BANG as the trumpets blew
and we marched back down into the town again
Blue Mink

Now I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music , do you?
It goes like this The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you To a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
You say I took the name in vain
I don't even know the name
But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
There's a blaze of light In every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
And even though It all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
Leonard Cohen

I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window
I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blind
She was my woman
As she deceived me I watched and went out of my mind
My, my, my, Delilah
Why, why, why, Delilah
I could see that girl was no good for me
But I was lost like a slave that no man could free

(hey!) Wasn’t it yesterday We used to laugh at the wind behind us? Didn’t we run away and hope That time wouldn’t try to find us (didn’t we run) Didn’t we take each other To a place where no one’s ever been? Yeah, I really need you near me tonight ’cause you’ll never take me there again Let me watch you go With the sun in my eyes We’ve seen how love can grow Now we’ll see {for Connie} how it dies If I’ve got to be strong Don’t you know I need to have tonight when you’re gone? ’till you go I need to hold you until the time Your hands reach out and touch me in the morning (mornings where blue and gold and we could feel one another living) Then just walk away (we walked with a dream to hold and we could take what the world was giving) We don’t have tomorrow, (there’s no tomorrow here, there’s only love and the time to chase it) But we had yesterday (but yesterday’s gone my love, there’s only now and it’s time to face it) Touch me in the morning... Lyrics: Ron Miller/Michael Masser Artist: Diana Ross More about these lyrics at: WkiConnie - you must have sneaked through a whole in cyberspace while I was still composing ... probably because I spent so long decided what to cut. Anyway, I'll see you with a see. Jx

Tomorrow
The sun'll come out
Tomorrow
Bet your bottom dollar
That tomorrow
There'll be sun!
Just thinkin' about
Tomorrow
Clears away the cobwebs,
And the sorrow
'Til there's none!
When I'm stuck a day
That's gray,
And lonely,
I just stick out my chin
And Grin,
And Say,
Oh!
The sun'll come out
Tomorrow
So ya gotta hang on
'Til tomorrow
Come what may
Tomorrow! Tomorrow!
I love ya Tomorrow!
You're always
A day
Away!

When there are grey skies I don't mind the grey skies.
You make them blue, Sonny Boy.
Friends may forsake me, let them all forsake me.
You pull me thru, Sonny Boy.
You're sent from heaven and I know your worth.
You made a heaven for me right here on the earth.
When I'm old and grey, dear, promise you won't stray, dear,
for I love you, Sonny Boy.

Since I still appreciate you, Let's find love while we may. Because I know I'll hate you When you are old and gray. So say you love me here and now, I'll make the most of that. Say you love and trust me, For I know you'll disgust me When you're old and getting fat. An awful debility, A lessened utility, A loss of mobility Is a strong possibility. In all probability I'll lose my virility And you your fertility And desirability, And this liability Of total sterility Will lead to hostility And a sense of futility, So let's act with agility While we still have facility, For we'll soon reach senility And lose the ability. Your teeth will start to go, dear, Your waist will start to spread. In twenty years or so, dear, I'll wish that you were dead. I'll never love you then at all The way I do today. So please remember, When I leave in December, I told you so in May. Tom Lehrer edit: add link

When your down and troubled
and you need a helping hand
and nothing, whoa nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me
and soon I will be there
to brighten up even your darkest nights.
You just call out my name,
and you know wherever I am
I'll come running, oh yeah baby
to see you again.
Winter, spring , summer, or fall,
all you have to do is call
and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You've got a friend

Ain't no way the Bogeyman can get you,
You can close your eyes, the world is gonna let you,
Your daddy's here and never will forget you,
I will take you home.
I will take you home.
Gonna carry you back home
In my arms.
I will take you home.
Long is the road
We must travel on down.
Short are the legs
That will struggle behind.
I wish I knew for sure
Just where we're bound,
What we will be doin'
And what we're gonna find...

Dance to your daddy ,
My little babby,
Dance to your daddy,
My little lamb!
You shall have a fishy
In a little dishy,
You shall have a fishy
When the boat comes in.
Dance to your daddy,
My little babby,
Dance to your daddy,
My little lamb;
You shall have an apple,
You shall have a plum,
You shall have a rattle-basket,
When your dad comes home.

Three little maids from school are we
Pert as a school-girl well can be
Filled to the brim with girlish glee
Three little maids from school
Everything is a source of fun
Nobody's safe, for we care for none
Life is a joke that's just begun
Three little maids from school
Three little maids who, all unwary
Come from a ladies' seminary
Freed from its genius tutelary
Three little maids from school
Three little maids from school
Messrs Gilbert et Sullivan

Well East coast girls are hip
I really dig those styles they wear
And the Southern girls with the way they talk
They knock me out when I'm down there
The Mid-West farmer's daughters really make you feel alright
And the Northern girls with the way they kiss
They keep their boyfriends warm at night

It’s time to end my holiday and bid the country a hasty farewell.
So on this gray and melancholy day, I’ll move to a manhattan hotel.
I’ll dispose of my rose-colored chattels and prepare for my share of adventures and battles,
Here on the twenty-seventh floor looking down on the city I hate and adore!
Autumn in New York, why does it seem so inviting?
Autumn in New York, it spells the thrill of first-nighting.
Glittering crowds and shimmering clouds in canyons of steel;
they’re making me feel I’m home.
It’s autumn in New York that brings the promise of new love.
Autumn in New York is often mingled with pain.
Dreamers with empty hands may sigh for exotic lands;
It’s autumn in New York; It’s good to live again.

Hands
If I could tell the world just one thing
It would be that we're all ok
And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful
And useless in times like these
I won't be made useless
I won't be idle with despair
I will gather myself around my faith
For light does the darkness most fear
My hands are small, I know
But they're not yours, they are my own
But they're not yours, they are my own
And I am never broken
Poverty stole your golden shoes
It didn't steal your laughter
And heartache came to visit me
But I knew it wasn't ever after
We'll fight, not out of spite
For someone must stand up for what's right
Cause where there's a man who has no voice
There ours shall go singing
My hands are small I know
But they're not yours, they are my own
But they're not yours, they are my own
I am never broken.

Well now, baby meet me in the bottom, bring me my running shoes
Well now, baby meet me in the bottom, bring me my running shoes
Well throw them out the window, won't have time to lose.
When you see me streaking by, please don't be late
When you see me streaking by, please don't be late
Well you runnin', though my life is at stake
Well, I hope you'll see me when I come streaking by
Well, I hope you'll see me when I come streaking by
She got a bad old man, you know I'm too young to die.
Meet me in the Bottom

He'll look at me and smile
I'll understand ;
And in a little while,
He'll take my hand ;
And though it seems absurd,
I know we both won't say a word
Maybe I shall meet him Sunday
Maybe Monday, maybe not ;
Still I'm sure to meet him one day
Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day

Ain't it the truth.
The poignant message within this lovely song has long been hard wired into the operative biology of almost every English-speaking woman on Earth and hardly needs repeating.
But still, they are beautiful words,  so come on girls, altogether now, a-one, a-two, a-three...Sometimes it's hard to be a woman Giving all your love to just one man You'll have bad times And he'll have good times Doin things that you don't understandBut if you love him You'll forgive him Even though he's hard to understand And if you love him Oh, be proud of him Cause after all he's just a man Stand by your man Give him two arms to cling to And something warm to come to when nights are cold and lonely Stand by your man And show the world you love him Keep giving all the love you can Stand by your man STAND BY YOUR MAN

My brother knows where the best bars are
Let's see how these blues'll do in the town where the good times stay

Bound down that long, lonesome highway just as fast as I can fly
Just wanna go to someplace you won't be
I'm movin' on to a new place and hold my head up high
Where no one knows what you done to me
A thousand miles between us now
And still some how
These blues'll track me down
Down that long, lonesome highway just as far as I can go
‘Til I outrun your memory
~Steve Earle, Long, Lonesome Highway Blues

Going down that long lonesome highway
Bound for the mountains and the plains
Sure ain't nothing here gonna tie me
And I got some friends I'd like to see
One of these days I'm gonna settle down
But till I do I won't be hanging round
Going down that long lonesome highway
Gonna live life my way
One of these days I'm gonna settle down
But till I do I won't be hanging round
Going down that long lonesome highway
Gonna live life my way
Yes I'm going down that long lonesome highway
Gonna live life my way.

Well, it's a long lonesome road
Through the lifetime of a trucker
But me and this here ol' truck
We gonna make it
Well, it's a long lonesome road
And the miles of life are many
But me an' these eighteen wheels
We gonna take it
It's a long way to go
And the road ahead is troubled
But this ol' rig and me
We gonna make it
~C.W. McCall. Long Lonesome Road

Sail on silvergirl,
Sail on by.
Your time has come to shine.
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine.
If you need a friend
I’m sailing right behind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.

Three coins in the fountain
Through the ripples how they shine
(Just one wish will be granted)
(One heart will wear a valentine)

from all that is in me
i say these words with freedom on my tongue
i give to you all of me
in this crazy world our life has just begun
no one can take that away
it just keeps pouring out
like juice form berries on the vine
nowhere is where i would be
without you with me
valentine

Well I can hardly wait
Until I get the sun and your lips both pressing on my skin
Well I can hardly wait
Until I feel that thrill in my heart that starts inside your eyes
And the song in my head that burns so good on my tongue
Yes I will
yeah yeah
Yes I will
yeah yeah
Yes I will

I'm gonna do all the things for you
A girl wants a man to do
Oh, baby
I'll sacrifice for you
I'll even do wrong for you
Oh, baby
Every minute, every hour
I'm gonna shower, you
With love and affection
Look out, it's comin' in your direction
And I'm,
I'm gonna make you love me
Oh, yes I will
Yes I will
Look here,
My love is strong, you see
I know you'll never get tired of me
Oh, baby
And I'm gonna use every trick in the book
I'll try my best to get you hooked
Hey, baby
And every night, every day
I'm gonna say
I'm gonna get you, I'm gonna get you
Look out boy, 'cause I'm gonna get you
I'm gonna make you love me
Oh, yes I will
Yes I will
And I'm gonna make you love me
Oh, yes I will
You know I will

Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize - don't patronize me
Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't
I Can't Make You Love Me ~Bonnie Raitt

So sing me no sad songs, tell me no lies
Please don't you make me blue
Sing me no sad songs, tell me no lies
Girl, I can do without you

Legs
She's got legs, she knows how to use them.
She never begs, she knows how to choose them.
She's holdin' legs wonderin' how to feel them.
Would you get behind them if you could only find them?
She's my baby, she's my baby,
yeah, it's alright.
