I Can Dream Can't I
karen carpenter

As we eye the blue horizon's bend,
Earth and sky appear to meet and end.
But it's merely an illusion.
Like your heart and mine,
There is no sweet conclusion

I can see,
No matter how near you'll be,
You'll never belong to me.
But I can dream Can't I?
Can't I pretend
that I'm locked in the bend of your embrace?
For dreams are just like wine,
And I am drunk with mine

I'm aware my heart is a sad affair.
There's much disillusion there,
But I can dream, Can't I

Can't I adore you although we are oceans apart?
I can't make you open your heart,
But I can dream Can't I


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Touch Me When We're Dancing
karen carpenter

Play us a song we can slow dance on
We want to hold each other
Play us a groove so we hardly move
Just let our hearts beat together
Oh, baby, `cause it feel so good
When we're close like this
Whisper in my ear and let me steal a kiss

Come on and touch me
When we're dancing
You know you've got that loving touch (loving touch)
Touch me when we're dancing
I want to feel you when I'm falling in love.

Tonight's the night and it feels so right
My heart is saying it to me
You're the one I've waited for so long
So let your love flow through me
Oh, baby `cause it feels so good
Just to be this close
You've got me up so high
I could fly cost to coast
(Repeat Chorus)

American Pie - Don McLean - some of the most argued-over lyrics of all time...
PS Madonna's cover version was OK too I guess...


A long long time ago
I can still remember how that music used to make me smile
And I knew if I had my chance
I could make those people dance
And maybe they'd be happy for a while

But February made me shiver
with every paper I delivered
Bad news on the doorstep
I couldn't take one more step
And I can't remember if I cried
when I heard about his widowed bride
But something touched me deep inside
the day the music died

So bye bye miss American Pie
Drove my chevy to the levy
but the levy was dry
Them good old boys were drinking whisky and rye
and singing this'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die

Did you write the book of love
and do you have faith in God above
if the Bible tells you so?
Now do you believe in rock and roll?
Can music save your mortal soul?
And can you teach me how to dance real slow?

Well I know that you're in love with him
'cause I saw you dancing in the gym
You both kicked off your shoes
Man, I dig those rhythm-n-blues
I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck
with a pink carnation and a pickup truck
but I knew I was out of luck
the day the music died
I started singing
Bye bye miss American Pie
drove my chevy to the levy
but the levy was dry
them good old boys were drinking whisky and rye
and singing this'll be the day that I die
this'll be the day that I die

Now for ten years we've been on our own
And moss grows fat on a rollin' stone
But that's not how it used to be
When the jester sang for the king and queen
in a coat he borrowed from James Dean
and a voice that came from you & me
Oh, and while the king was looking down
the jester stole his thorny crown
The courtroom was adjourned
No verdict was returned
and while Lennon read a book on Marx
The quartet practised in the park
And we sang dirges in the dark
The day the music died

We were singing
Bye bye miss American Pie
Drove my chevy to the levy
but the levy was dry
Them good old boys were drinking whisky and rye
and singing this'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die

Helter skelter in a summer swelter
The birds flew off with a fallout shelter
Eight miles high and falling fast
It landed foul on the grass
The players tried for a forward pass
With the jester on the sidelines in a cast
And now the half-time air was sweet perfume
While sergeants played a marching tune
We all got up to dance
Oh, but we never got the chance
‘Cause the players tried to take the field
But the marching band refused to yield
Do you recall what was revealed
The day the music died?

We started singing
Bye bye miss American Pie
Drove my chevy to the levy
but the levy was dry
Them good old boys were drinking whisky and rye
and singing this'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die

And there we were all in one place
A generation lost in space
With no time left to start again
So come on, Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
Jack Flash sat on a candlestick
'Cause fire is the Devil's only friend
Oh, and as I watched him on the stage
My hands were clenched in fists of rage
No angel born in Hell
Could break that Satan's spell
And as the planes climbed high into the night
To light the sacrificial rite
I saw Satan laughing with delight
The day the music died

He was singing
Bye bye miss American Pie
Drove my chevy to the levy
but the levy was dry
Them good old boys were drinking whisky and rye
and singing this'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die
I met a girl who sang the blues
And I asked her for some happy news
But she just smiled and turned away
And I went down to the sacred store
Where I'd heard the music years before
But the man there said the music wouldn't play

And in the streets the children screamed
The lovers cried and the poets dreamed
But not a word was spoken
The church bells all were broken
And the three men I admire the most
Father, Son and Holy Ghost
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died

And they were singing
Bye bye miss American Pie
Drove my chevy to the levy
but the levy was dry
Them good old boys were drinking whisky and rye
and singing this'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die

They were singing
Bye bye miss American Pie
Drove my chevy to the levy
but the levy was dry
Them good old boys were drinking whisky and rye
and singing this'll be the day that I die

Nobody Told Me
John Lennon


Everybody's talking and no one says a word
Everybody's making love and no one really cares
There's Nazis in the bathroom just below the stairs
Always something happening and nothing going on
There's always something cooking and nothing in the pot
They're starving back in China so finish what you got

Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Strange days indeed -- strange days indeed

Everybody's runnin' and no one makes a move
Everyone's a winner and nothing left to lose
There's a little yellow idol to the north of Katmandu
Everybody's flying and no one leaves the ground
Everybody's crying and no one makes a sound
There's a place for us in the movies you just gotta lay around

Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Strange days indeed -- most peculiar, mama

Everybody's smoking and no one's getting high
Everybody's flying and never touch the sky
There's a UFO over New York and I ain't too surprised

Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Strange days indeed -- most peculiar, mama

CRYSTAL LULLABY
karen carpenter


Listen to the song he sings
Can't you see his music brings her
Crystal sleep

As her heavy eyelids fall
He's taking her to where the dolls rule the world

And in that land of make believe
Is where he'll leave her sleeping
Softly warm
In a crystal lullaby

He's weaving her a paper castle
Where dancing clowns with tassels made of fur
Welcome her into their world
That lives inside the dreams
Of every little girl

She's guarded by a brave tin soldier
Sitting on her shoulder
Taken there
In a crystal lullaby

Sometimes when I listen to
The velvet song that fills a summer afternoon
Something deep within me sighs
And wishes for the peaceful skies of long ago

That wrapped my cares
In silver air
And carried them away
Leaving me
And a crystal lullaby

That wrapped my cares
In silver air
And carried them away
Leaving me
And a crystal lullaby
And a crystal lullaby

I Have You
karen carptenter



I have always been a dreamer,
followed vision of my own.
I was born to belong to the lines of a song
and make them my home.

I believe in happy endings,
though I've only known a few.
For as rare as they are like a bright falling star,
I found one in you.

Sometimes all the world can seem so friendless,
and the road ahead so endless,
and the dream so far away.
Sometimes.

Sometimes when I'm almost to surrender,
and I stop and I remember
I have you to save my day.

Often my imagination has me reaching out too far.
When I fell, you were there
with your hand in the air,
you knew from the start.

Sometimes after all you've done to save me,
through the love you freely gave me,
ev'ry step along the way.
Sometimes.

Sometimes people ask what keeps me goin',
and in truth it come from knowin'
I have you to save my day.

Sometimes feeling helpless when I held you,
wishing words would come to tell you
I have you to save my day.

Christmas At Ground Zero
by Al Yankovic


It's Christmas at Ground Zero
There's music in the air
The sleigh bells are ringin' and the carolers are singin'
While the air raid sirens blare

It's Christmas at Ground Zero
The button has been pressed
The radio just let us know
That this is not a test

Everywhere the atom bombs are droppin'
It's the end of all humanity
No more time for last minute shoppin'
It's time to face your final destiny

Well, it's Christmas at Ground Zero
There's panic in the crowd
We can dodge debris while we trim the tree
Underneath a mushroom cloud

(siren)

You might hear some reindeer on your rooftop
Or Jack Frost on your windowsill
But if someone's climbin' down your chimney
You better load your gun and shoot to kill

Oh, it's Christmas at Ground Zero
And if the radiation level's okay
I'll go out with you and see the all new
Mutations on New Year's Day

It's Christmas at Ground Zero
Just seconds left to go
I'll duck and cover with my yuletide lover
Underneath the mistletoe

It's Christmas at Ground Zero
Now the missiles are on their way
What a crazy fluke we're gonna get nuked
On this jolly holiday
What a crazy fluke we're gonna get nuked
On this jolly holiday

(siren)

Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)

(Christmas)
The snow's coming down
(Christmas)
I'm watching it fall
(Christmas)
Lots of people around
(Christmas)
Baby please come home

(Christmas)
The church bells in town
(Christmas)
All ringing in song
(Christmas)
Full of happy sounds
(Christmas)
Baby please come home

They're singing "Deck The Halls"
But it's not like Christmas at all
'Cause I remember when you were here
And all the fun we had last year

(Christmas)
Pretty lights on the tree
(Christmas)
I'm watching them shine
(Christmas)
You should be here with me
(Christmas)
Baby please come home

They're singing "Deck The Halls"
But it's not like Christmas at all
'Cause I remember when you were here
And all the fun we had last year

(Christmas)
If there was a way
(Christmas)
I'd hold back this tear
(Christmas)
But it's Christmas day
(Please)
Please
(Please)
Please
(Please)
Please
(Please)
Please
Baby please come home
(Christmas)
Baby please come home
(Christmas)
Baby please come home

Merry Christmas Darling
karen carpenter



Greeting cards have all been sent
The Christmas rush is through
But I still have one more wish to make
A special one for you

Merry Christmas darling
We're apart that's true
But I can dream and in my dreams
I'm Christmas-ing with you

Holidays are joyful
There's always something new
But every day's a holiday
When I'm near to you
The lights on my tree
I wish you could see
I wish it every day
The logs on the fire
Fill me with desire
To see you and to say

That I wish you a Merry Christmas
Happy New Year, too
I've just one wish
On this Christmas Eve
I wish I were with you
I wish I were with you

Nuttin' For Christmas


I broke my bat on Johnny's head;
Somebody snitched on me.
I hid a frog in sister's bed;
Somebody snitched on me.
I spilled some ink on Mommy's rug;
I made Tommy eat a bug;
Bought some gum with a penny slug;
Somebody snitched on me.

Chorus
Oh, I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas
Mommy and Daddy are mad.
I'm getting nuttin' for Christmas
'Cause I ain't been nuttin' but bad.

I put a tack on teacher's chair
somebody snitched on me.
I tied a knot in Susie's hair
somebody snitched on me.
I did a dance on Mommy's plants
climbed a tree and tore my pants
Filled the sugar bowl with ants
somebody snitched on me.

Chorus
So, I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas
Mommy and Daddy are mad.
I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas
'Cause I ain't been nuttin' but bad.

I won't be seeing Santa Claus;
Somebody snitched on me.
He won't come visit me because
Somebody snitched on me.
Next year I'll be going straight;
Next year I'll be good, just wait
I'd start now, but it's too late;
Somebody snitched on me.

So you better be good whatever you do
'Cause if you're bad, I'm warning you,
You'll get nuttin' for Christmas.

The Grinch's Song


You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch
You really are a heel,
You're as cuddly as a cactus, you're as charming as an eel, Mr. Grinch,
You're a bad banana with a greasy black peel!


You're a monster, Mr. Grinch,
Your heart's an empty hole,
Your brain is full of spiders, you have garlic in your soul, Mr. Grinch,
I wouldn't touch you with a thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole!


You're a foul one, Mr. Grinch,
You have termites in your smile,
You have all the tender sweetness of a seasick crocodile, Mr. Grinch,
Given a choice between the two of you I'd take the seasick crocodile!


You're a rotter, Mr. Grinch,
You're the king of sinful sots,
Your heart's a dead tomato splotched with moldy purple spots, Mr. Grinch,
You're a three decker sauerkraut and toadstool sandwich with arsenic sauce!


You nauseate me, Mr. Grinch,
With a nauseous super "naus"!,
You're a crooked dirty jockey and you drive a crooked hoss, Mr. Grinch,
Your soul is an appalling dump heap overflowing with the most disgraceful
assortment of rubbish imaginable mangled up in tangled up knots!


You're a foul one, Mr. Grinch,
You're a nasty wasty skunk,
Your heart is full of unwashed socks, your soul is full of gunk, Mr. Grinch,
The three words that best describe you are as follows, and I quote,
"Stink, stank, stunk"!

The Christmas Song

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide 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 bringing lots of toys and goodies
on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know hot to fly
And so I'm offering this simple wish
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times,
many ways
Merry Chrismas to you

*repeat last verse*

God Rest You Merry Gentlemen


God rest you merry, gentlemen,
Let nothing you dismay,
Remember Christ our Savior
Was born on Christmas Day;
To save us all from Satan's power
When we were gone astray.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy!

From God our heavenly Father
A blessed angel came;
And unto certain shepherds
Brought tiding of the same;
How that in Bethlehem was born
The Son of God by name.

"Fear not, then," said the angel,
"Let nothing you affright;
This day is born a Savior
Of a pure virgin bright,
To free all those who trust in him
From Satan's power and might."

Now to the Lord sing praises,
All you within this place,
And with true love and brotherhood
Each other now embrace;
this holy tide of Christmas
Doth bring redeeming grace.

Xmas day by sevendust
One step in the dark
Touch her hand just to see
If she's all alone again
Still she hasn't seen sun
But I promise you now when she wakes
There will be none
Don't know how she gets by
Sleeps with a phone on her chest
And a bottle that's totally dry
Forgets the day I was born
But if she saw me right now

She would hold me until we both die
I could be the one who would die to
feel you breathe

I could break into a million pieces
So just run as fast as you can for me
You mean everything

I can't deny her. I'll do whatever
To stop all the bleeding that makes
her world so red
Such a delicate one
She screams so loud that I run to
hide from the sound
And I could be the one who would die
to feel you breathe
But it's too far-gone
And this love must die

Been awhile since I posted a song... Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

So it looks like Boann and Sloww forgot about me.

Well here's one for them

We've only just begun
by Paul Williams and Roger Nichols
As performed by the Carpenters


We've only just begun to live,
White lace and promises
A kiss for luck and we're on our way.
And yes, We've just begun.
Before the rising sun we fly,
So many roads to choose
We start our walking and learn to run.
And yes, We've just begun.
Sharing horizons that are new to us,
Watching the signs along the way,
Talking it over just the two of us,
Working together day to day Together.
And when the evening comes we smile,
So much of life ahead
We'll find a place where there's room to grow,
And yes, We've just begun.

I cool song from the old days.

"Your Smiling Face"
James Taylor

Whenever I see your smiling face
I have to smile myself
Because I love you (Yes, I do)
And when you give me that pretty little pout
It turns me inside out
There's something about you, baby (I don't know)

(Chorus)
Isn't it amazing a man like me
Can feel this way
Tell me how much longer
I will grow stronger every day
Oh, how much longer

I thought I was in love
A couple of times before
With the girl next door
But that was long before I met you
Now I'm sure that I won't forget you
And I thank my lucky stars
That you are who you are
And not just another lovely lady
Sent down to break my heart

Isn't it amazing a man like me
Can feel this way
Tell me how much longer
I can grow stronger every day
How much longer

No one can tell me that I'm doing it wrong today
Whenever I see you smile at me
No one can tell me that I'm doing it wrong today
Whenever I see your smile at face my way
No one can tell me that I'm doing it wrong today
No one can tell me that I'm doing it wrong today

Increase Your PM Length

Gets Me Through by Ozzy Osbourne

Im not the kind of person
You think I am
I'm not the antichrist or
The iron man
I have a vision that I
Just can't control
I feel I've lost my spirit
And sold my soul

Got no control

I tried to entertain you
The best I can
I wished I started walking
Before I ran
But I still love the feeling
I get from you
I hope you'll never stop cause
It gets me through yeah (2x)

The feelings that I hide behind
Sometime reality's unkind
The nightmares start for me at night
I dread the long and lonely nights

I'm not the kind of person
You think I am
I'm not the antichrist or
The iron man
But I still love the feeling
I get from you
I hope you'll never stop cause
It gets me through yeah

I’m just trying to live yeah

Last Triple Shot Thursday of 2001. Thank God. Put an end to popups!

Slow Hand album
by Eric Clapton


Next Time You See Her


She's got everything a man could ever ask for.
She is lovely, brighter than a morning star.
She is so beautiful, portrait of a sunset.
She got everything, including my old car.

Next time you see her, tell her that I love her.
Next time you see her, tell her that I care.
Next time you see her, tell her that I love her.
Next time I see you, boy you'd better beware.

I'm just trying to warn you that you're bound to get hurt.
I couldn't be her last love, so how could you be her first?
I want to tell you, buddy, things are bound to get rough.
I know that she's only flirting, but I think that I've had enough.

Chorus

And if you see her again, I will surely kill you.
And if you see her again, I will surely kill you.

Chorus

And if you see her again, I will surely kill you.
And if you see her again, I will surely kill you.

Chorus

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

May You Never


May you never lay your head down without a hand to hold.
May you never make your bed out in the cold.
May you never lose your temper if you get hit in a barroom fight.
May you never lose your woman overnight.

Well, you're just like a great, strong sister to me,
And I know that your love is true,
And you hold no blade for to stab me in my back;
I know that there's some that do.

So please, won't you please, won't you bear it in mind:
Love is a lesson to learn in our time.
Please, won't you please, bear it in mind for me.

Chorus

Well, you're just like a great, strong brother to me,
And I know that your love is true,
And you never talk dirty behind my back;
I know that there's some that do.

So please, won't you please, won't you bear it in mind:
Love is a lesson to learn in our time.
Please, won't you please, bear it in mind for me.

Chorus

May you never lose your woman overnight.
May you never lose your woman overnight.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

We're All The Way


There's no cause to think that I won't stay;
Haven't I been with you all the way?
There's no time like now to make amends.
After all, we are more than friends.

This could be the time for you and me.
We could go wherever we should be.
So don't put words between us we shouldn't say,
And don't be acting halfway
When you know we're all the way.

There are times when I don't see the light.
I don't know if what I do is right.
But when I'm wrong, it's never meant for you,
So don't confuse my love with what I do.

Chorus

Dreams


Now here you go again
You say you want your freedom
Well who am I to keep you down
It's only right that you should
Play the way you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound
Of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat .. drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost ...
And what you had ...
And what you lost

Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Say .. Women ... they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean .. you'll know

Now here I go again, I see the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself
It's only me
Who wants to wrap around your dreams and ...
Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?
Dreams of loneliness ...
Like a heartbeat ... drives you mad ...
In the stillness of remembering what you had ...
And what you lost ...
And what you had ...
And what you lost

Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Say .. Women ... they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean .. you'll know

------------------------------------------------------------------------

I Don't Want To Know


I don't want to know the reasons why
Love keeps right on walking down the line
I don't want to stand between you and love
Honey, I just want you to feel fine

Finally baby
The truth has come down now
Take a listen to your spirit
It's crying out loud.
Try to believe
You say you love me, but you don't know
You got me rocking and a-reeling
Oh

I don't want to know the reasons why
Love keeps right on walking down the line
I don't want to stand between you and love
Honey, I just want you to feel fine

Finally baby
The truth has been told
Now you tell me that I'm crazy
That's nothing that I didn't know
Trying to survive
You say you love me, but you don't know
You got me rocking and a-reeling

I don't want to know the reasons why
Love keeps right on walking down the line
I don't want to stand between you and love
Honey, take a little time.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Go Your Own Way


Loving you
Isn't the right thing to do
How can I ever change things
That I feel

If I could
Maybe I'd give you my world
How can I
When you won't take it from me

You can go your own way
Go your own way
You an call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way

Tell me why
Everything turned around
Packing up
Shacking up is all you wanna do

If I could
Baby I'd give you my world
Open up
Everything's waiting for you

You can go your own way
Go your own way
You an call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
go your own way

all time high......... james bond
Rita Coolidge




All I wanted was a sweet distraction for an hour or two.
Had no intention to do the things we've done.
Funny how it always goes with love, when you don't look, you find.
But then we're two of a kind, we move as one.

We're an all time high,
We'll change all that's gone before.
Doing so much more than falling in love.
On an all time high,
We'll take on the world and wait.
So hold on tight, let the flight begin.

I don't want to waste a waking moment; I don't want to sleep.
I'm in so strong and so deep, and so are you.
In my time I've said these words before, but now I realize
My heart was telling me lies, for you they're true.

We're an all time high,
We'll change all that's gone before.
Doing so much more than falling in love.
On an all time high,
We'll take on the world and wait.
So hold on tight, let the flight begin.

So hold on tight, let the flight begin.
We're an all time high.

Stupid People - Here's Your Sign Inflate your Upload Space

Stupid people should have to wear signs that just say, "I'm Stupid"

That way you wouldn't rely on them, would you? You
wouldn't ask them anything. It would be like, "Excuse
me...oops, never mind. I didn't see your sign." ...

It's like before my wife and I moved. Our house was
full of boxes and there was a U-Haul truck in our
driveway. My friend comes over and says, "Hey, you
moving?" "Nope. We just pack our stuff up once or
twice a week to see how many boxes it takes. Here's
your sign."

A couple of months ago I went fishing with a buddy
of mine, we pulled his boat into the dock, I lifted up
this big 'ol stringer of bass and this idiot on the
dock goes, "Hey, y'all catch all them fish?" "Nope -
Talked 'em into giving up. Here's your sign."

I was watching one of those animal shows on the
Discovery Channel. There was a guy inventing a shark
bite suit. And there's only one way to test it.
"all right Jimmy, you got that shark suit on, it looks
good...They want you to jump into this pool of sharks,
and you tell us if it hurts when they bite you."
"Well, all right, but hold my sign. I don't
wanna lose it."

Last time I had a flat tire, I pulled my truck into
one of those side-of-the-road gas stations. The
attendant walks out, looks at my truck,
looks at me, and I SWEAR he said, "Tire go flat?" I
couldn't resist. I said, "Nope. I was driving around
and those other three just swelled right up on me.
Here's your sign."

We were trying to sell our car about a year ago. A
guy came over to the house and drove the car around
for about 45 minutes. We get back to the house, he
gets out of the car, reaches down and grabs the
exhaust pipe, then goes, "Darn that's hot!" See?
If he'd been wearing his sign, I could have stopped him.

I learned to drive an 18 wheeler in my days of
adventure. Wouldn't ya know I misjudged the height of
a bridge. The truck got stuck and I couldn't get it
out no matter how I tried. I radioed in for help and
eventually a local cop shows up to take the report.
He went through his basic questioning. No problem. I
thought for sure he was clear of needing a sign...
until he says "So..is your truck stuck?" I couldn't
help myself! I looked at him, looked back at the rig,
then back to him and said, "No I'm delivering a bridge
...Here's your sign!".

One More Time

It's been so long
Since I've seen your smile
Made me think about
When you were a child
It won't be long, I'm comin' home
Gonna get you in my arms
And make love to you, darlin', one more time

When I left, you didn't even say good-bye
And the tears kept rollin' from my eye
It won't be long, I'm comin' on home
Gonna get you in my arms
And make love to you, darlin', just one more time
Umm-mm

Yes, it won't be long, I'm comin' on home
Gonna get you in my arms
And make love to you, darlin', just one more time

Well they say, in this here world
There's a girl for ev'ry boy
You're the one, you're the one
That's brought me so much joy

It won't be long, I'm comin' on home
Gonna get you in my arms
And make love to you, darlin', just one more time
Yeah, one more time
One more time
Just, one more time
--------------------------

Moondance

Well, it's a marvelous night for a Moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
'Neath the cover of October skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And I'm trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the night's magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush
Chorus:
Can I just have one a' more Moondance with you, my love
Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love

Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
I can't wait 'til the morning has come
And I know that the time is just right
And straight into my arms you will run
And when you come my heart will be waiting
To make sure that you're never alone
There and then all my dreams will come true, dear
There and then I will make you my own
And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside
And I know how much you want me that you can't hide

Chorus

Repeat 1st Verse

One more Moondance with you in the moonlight
On a magic night
La, la, la, la in the moonlight
On a magic night
Can't I just have one more dance with you my love

Could You Lie
Alison Kruass

Go on, I have heard it all before
You have no shameless pain I feel you've never known
The rain outside is shifting in the wind
The road is looking lonelier alone again.

If love is real than love goes on and on
The words you said comdemn you as the guilty one
I guess you're not the kind you claim to be
Always looking out to get your love for free.

Could you lie and say you love me just a little?
One more wrong would keep us one more night
When quiet fades with the light of day
I'll see the truth that's on your face again.

When morning breaks my heart won't understand
I've spent a lifetime raising houses on the sand
The rain outside is shifting in the wind.
The road is looking lonelier alone again.

Could you lie and say you love me just a little?
One more wrong would keep us one more night
When quiet fades with the light of day
I'll see the truth that's on your face again.


Texas On My Mind
Pat Green, written by Django Walker

I woke up this morning, Texas on my mind
Thinking about my friends there and a girl I'd left behind
The way she held me when we kissed, the loving that we'd done
And how I left her waving goodbye standing in the Texas sun.

I've got a half a mind to call her
Half a mind to go
Jump a big jet liner
And wing it on my way back home.

And all the morning it was raining
On the streets of Liverpool
So I stayed in and played guitar and sang the lovesick blues
My mind kept going back in time when we both had fun
And how I left her waving to me standing in the Texas sun.

I've got a half a mind to call her
Half a mind to go
Jumpt a big jet liner
And wing it on my way back home.

In my dreams she's still in love with me
But I'd have to travel home to see
If she's found another man to take the place of me
Guess I'll have to keep on dreaming sunny memories.

Wishing I was back there doesn't help me much at all
When I want to hold her it doesn't help me much to call
I'm stuck here in this seaport town longing for the one
That I left behind me there standing in the Texas sun.

I've got a half a mind to call her
Half a mind to go
Jumpt a big jet liner
And wing it on my way back home.


Maybe
Alison Krauss

Yesterday the odds were stacked in favor of my expecations.
Flying above the rest,
Never falling from the nest.

Tuesday came went and now I'm in a little situation.
Maybe it's for the best,
I can live alone I guess.

Maybe I can stand alone,
Maybe I'm strong as stone.
Even though the bird has flown,
Maybe he'll fly on home.

Forgive me if I'm keeping you apart from better converstation.
I'm hung up on all my doubt,
Trying to sort the whole thing out.

Tell me that I'm smart enough to deal with all the information.
Spinning inside my head,
Every word he ever said.

Maybe I can stand alone,
Maybe I'm strong as stone.
Even though the bird has flown,
Maybe he'll fly on home.

Maybe I can stand alone,
Maybe I'm strong and stone.
Even thought the bird has flown,
Maybe he'll fly on home.

The Warrior

You run, run, runaway it's your
Heart that you betray
Feeding on your hungry eyes
I bet you're not so civilized
Isn't love primitive a wild gift
You wanna give
Break out of captivity
And follow me stereo jungle child
Love is the kill your heart's still wild

chorus:
Shootin' at the walls of heartache
Bang, bang, I am the warrior
Yes I am the warrior
And heart to heart you win
If you survive the warrior, the warrior

You talk, talk, talk to me
Your eyes touch me physically
Stay with me, we'll take the night
As passion takes another bite

Oh, who's the hunter
Who's the game
I feel the beat call your name
I'll hold you close in victory
I don't wanna tame your animal style
You won't be caged
From the call of the wild

I'll Be Your Lover Too - Van Morrison

I'll be your man
I'll understand
And do my best
to take good care of you
Yes I will

You'll be my queen
I'll be your king
And I'll be your lover too
Yes I will

Derry down green
Color of my dream
A dream that's daily coming true
I'll tell you

When day is through
I will come to you
And tell you of your many charms

And you'll look at me
with eyes that see
And melt into each other's arms

And so I come to be the one
who's always standing next to you

Reach out for me
So I can be the one
who's always reaching out for you
Yes I will, yes I will

You'll be my queen
I'll be you king
And I'll be your lover too
