Wrapped In Clothes Of Blue
Hold me close and understand
Its now that I need you
Theres so much doubt when Im alone
Im wrapped in clothes of blue
And I need you to assure me
Always be near me
Im thinking about the times to come
And already what weve done
Its only when I see you smile
You open up my world
Oh, I want you to laugh again
Join our hands and laugh again
Lead ourselves through time
And I need you to assure me
Always be near me
Show me youre right

True Love?
i know what true love is.
i had it once. How many times will i take pride in this?
NOT once i assure you
There will be another time that i will tell you about it
its language is only between
the two of us, i fully remember when we were together
in church and people laugh and we did not
because we know
what we feel.
I assure you, it is true love.
It makes the world real, hands that get hurt,
hair that gets burned by a lamp,
lips that spit blood sometimes
but not everything in it is pain
there was a time when true love was born
inside the car
we had it, we never felt shame
we felt so right
and wanted a repeat performance
we did not speak about it
but we always remember it
like the full moon.
True love, at the end i tell myself
I don't need it
For me to survive.
And indeed, i survive, it is not always painful.
But it is, once, it was
very painful.

Laugh
Words and music by
Philip margo, mitchell margo, henry medress and jay siegel
Evry face that I see is all wrapped up in frowns,
And unfortunately, it kind of gets me down.
Laugh,
cause the music is funny
Yeah, the bass sounds off-beat.
Aint that neat.
Laugh,
When you lose all your money,
Or you cant find your shoes
To cover your feet.
Its not so hard to see exactly what Im after.
Sometimes a tear should fall, but I require giggles and chuckles
Laugh,
When youre keepin a secret
And it seems to be known
By the rest of the world.
Laugh,
When you go to a party,
And you cant tell the boys
From the girls.
Every face that I see is all wrapped up in frowns
And unfortunately, it kind of gets me down.
Laugh,
At the things that are wrong.
If you thinks its this song,
Then laugh.
Then laugh.
Then laugh.

Id Do Anything
Another day is going by
Im thinking about you all the time
But youre out there
And Im here waiting
And I wrote this letter in my head
cuz so many things were left unsaid
But now youre gone
And I cant think straight
This could be the one last chance
To make you understand
Id do anything
Just to hold you in my arms
To try to make you laugh
Some how I cant put you in the past
Id do anything
Just to fall asleep with you
Will you remember me?
cuz I know
I wont forget you
Together we broke all the rules
Dreaming of dropping out of school
And leave this place
To never come back
So now maybe after all these years
If you miss me have no fear
Ill be here
Ill be waiting
This could be the one last chance to make you understand
And I just cant let you leave me once again
Id do anything
Just to hold you in my arms
Try to make you laugh
Some how I cant put you in the past
Id do anything
Just to fall asleep with you
Will you remember me?
Cuz I know I wont forget you
I close my eyes
And all I see is you
I close my eyes
I try to sleep
I cant forget you
Nanana (2 x)
And Id do anything for you
Nanana (2 x)
Id do anything
Just to hold you in my arms
To try to make you laugh
Some how I cant put you in the past
Id do anything
Just to fall asleep with you
To fall alseep with you, you ya
Cuz I know I wont forget you

Love Will Follow
I run out of breath and start to shake
I love you with all my heart can take
I hold you beside me in my sleep
And long to be dreaming in my sleep
Weve come into a place in time
Where I am yours and youre mine
A circle filled with love
If youll come away with me
I could show you ecstasy
Close your eyes and we will lead
And love will follow
Take a chance and hold my hand
I know youll understand
Well find a special land
And love will follow
A smile on your lips and in your eyes
A stranger adrift in paradise
You touch me and slowly move away
Take all of the night you need to take
Just wait a little while and see
What you mean to me
Ive waited all my life
If you come away with me
I could show you ecstasy
Close your eyes and we will lead
And love will follow
Use your wings and fly away
And come with me today
Your heart will lead the way
And love will follow
(if this was just a chance of make-believe)
(youd never feel it this way)
Ive always wanted to love somebody
As much as i, I wanted you now
Weve come into a place in time
Where I am yours and youre mine
A circle filled with love
If youll come away with me
I could show you ecstasy
Close your eyes and we will lead
And love will follow
Take a chance and hold my hand
I know youll understand
Well find a special land
And love will follow
Girl, I swear Ill never fall
Its a natural pure law
And everywhere we go
Love will follow
Use your wings to fly away
And come with me today
Your heart will lead the way
And love will follow
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)
(hold me long, all night long, where you belong, my baby)

I want to smile
All my tears gone dry
What I want now
Is to laugh, giggle and smile
I want to smile at misery
Maybe you’re there
and make me strong in times of difficulty
I want to smile at envy
Maybe you’re there
To understand that living with you makes life empty
I want to smile at misfortune
Maybe you’re there
to teach me to be thankful with what is the real fortune
I want to smile at agony
Because your teach me
to pray, have faith and not to worry
I want to smile at hurricane
For nature shows me
That rainbow only comes with the right mix of sunlight and rain
I want to smile at darkness
cause you lead me
to go to the light and embrace the light of gladness
Smile vanish the darkness of avarice
And replace it with generosity
Smile dispels egoism and
Replace it with feeling of unity
I want to smile with fortitude
I want to smile with love
I want to smile with hope
erase the frown
Laugh…
Giggle..
and smile…
it will lead you to another great mile

I'm Down
You telling lies thinking i can't see
You don't cry 'cos you're laughing at me
I'm down (i'm really down)
I'm down (down on the ground)
I'm down (i'm really down)
How can you laugh when you know i'm down
(how can you laugh) when you know i'm down.
Man buys ring woman throws it away
Same damn thing happens everyday
I'm down (i'm really down)
I'm down (down on the ground)
I'm down (i'm really down)
How can you laugh when you know i'm down
(how can you laugh) when you know i'm down.
We're all alone and there's nobody else
You still moan: "keep your hands to yourself!"
I'm down (i'm really down)
I'm down (down on the ground)
I'm down (i'm really down)
How can you laugh when you know i'm down
(how can you laugh) when you know i'm down.
Don't you know that i'm down (i'm really down)
Don't you know that i'm down (i'm really down)
Down on the ground (i'm really down)
Don't you know that i'm down (i'm really down)
Down, down, down.

Touch Me In The Morning
(ron miller/michael masser)
Touch me in the morning
Then just walk away
We dont have tomorrow
But we had yesterday
(hey!)
Wasnt it me who said that
Nothing goods gonna last forever?
And wasnt it me who said
Lets just be glad for the time together?
It mustve been hard to tell me
That youve given all you had to give
I can understand youre feeling that way
Everybodys got their life to live
Well, I can say goodbye in the cold morning light
But I cant watch love die in the warmth of the night
If Ive got to be strong
Dont you know I need to have tonight when youre gone?
till you go I need to lie here and think about
The last time that youll touch me in the morning
Then just close the door
Leave me as you found me, empty like before
(hey!)
Wasnt it yesterday
We used to laugh at the wind behind us?
Didnt we run away and hope
That time wouldnt try to find us (didnt we run)
Didnt we take each other
To a place where no ones ever been?
Yeah, I really need you near me tonight
cause youll never take me there again
Let me watch you go
With the sun in my eyes
Weve seen how love can grow
Now well see how it dies
If Ive got to be strong
Dont you know I need to have tonight when youre 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 dont have tomorrow,
(theres no tomorrow here, theres only love and the time to chase it)
But we had yesterday
(but yesterdays gone my love, theres only now and its time to face it)
Touch me in the morning...

Syndicated Emotions
Go ahead:
Laugh laugh laugh.
It's all so funny.
Doesn't it remind you of home?
Doesn't it remind you of that one time?
It was like
Yeah, it was like
A similar something
I don't remember,
But I'm sure mom and pop have done things like that before.
Man, it's amazing how they replicate my life,
But, oh, wow, it's so much more engrossing.
More than likely well-written.
So I just:
Clap clap clap,
Opening a can of applause
For them to fork out onto my proverbial plate
Of the senses.
It's such a good time.
Remembering.
Thinking fondly.
Reminiscing back on all those
Syndicated emotions.
I'm glowing to see the box glowing.
All this glowing keeps me warm
And helps me to sleep at night.
It's my fucking night light.
It makes me:
Smile smile smile.
I'm so happy right now
To tune in and let the world tune out.
I watch the narrative arc
Lattice over the lucid plain
Of my loosely-based reality.
It's all an adaptation
Of what should be,
Of what could be,
God damn, it's what we would be—
A show,
A fiction,
That which is not.
My God, how I wish it was!
I wish I was scripted.
I wish I had the punch-lines
To bruise the guts
Of the breathless and hysteric people
As they are pummeled by bouts
Of explosive laughter.
Go ahead:
Laugh laugh laugh.
I'm sure it will
Keep you from crying.

Hunger
Your stomach stretched thin
Your rib cage pronounced
A bewildered gaze tell your story
Where are your parents?
Where are your friends?
You are dying from hunger
And there are no outstretched hands
You were dealt losing cards
Although you played to win
Some will say it's because you sin
On your back you lay
Hands on belly
Dead but breathing still
What type of life you lived?
Have you ever smiled?
Ever laughed uncontrollably
Because you were filled with joy?
Ever been out on the town?
If you did it does not show
Your body does not tell
Of happy times
It says grief, loneliness, abandonment
And pain
Ever gazed at the sky?
Dreamed of greatness and significance?
A time without lack
Or bitterness?
Maybe so but your body disagrees
Hunger, hunger is what I see
What if you could dream again?
Hope again and laugh?
Would you?
Could you?
If you are going to die anyway
Why not just laugh?
Laugh uncontrollably
This is your last hour
Hunger wins
Cannot receive food now
Cannot digest
Thirst cannot be quenched now
So laugh
Laugh for the first time
Laugh!

Travelled
Travelled the world a million ways,
Catching upon a familiar gaze
Everyone lives by do or die,
there's noone with time to laugh or cry
There's noone to tell us what we're living for.......
And though I try to be a good man,
I just know that I'll be losing very soon
And there are times and there are motions,
when I do believe I'm going out
of tune....oh..
I've been around a long,long while,
looking for sun to make me smile
Still multiplty the daily bread,
their thinking of lives for times ahead
It must be a mighty funny way to feel......
And though I try to be a good man,
I keep finding there's no where to begin
And so I think I'll go on singing,
and in time I hope that we can all join
in....oh..oh,oh,oh
Do,do,do,do,do,do
Do,do,do,do,do,do,do,do,do,do,do,do
Do,do,do,do,do,do,do,do,do,do,do,do
hmmm

Love laughed at you and made you blue
Now heres what you should do
Well laugh, though your heart is breaking in two
Yeah laugh, dont let them know he hurt you
Well laugh and pretend true love will come again

Laugh, though the one you love is really gone
Yeah laugh, even though youll be alone

Though its hard, so hard for you to do

Have You Ever Loved Somebody
(hicks / clarke / nash)
You say that you want me and now that youve got me youre gone
Think what youre doin or else youll regret what youve done
Dont come back tomorrow and say what we did wasnt right
Youll cry on your pillow and find it hard to sleep at night
Have you ever loved somebody
Dont you know just what its like
Hurting someone that youre close to
Have you ever loved all night all night
Remember what happened the last time that you said goodbye
Remember the saying that once bit and Ill be twice shy
Its no use me crying there is no denying its right
When thinking has ruined the feeling that we had to fight

If you hear people talking now
Will you laugh or cry
If you cry Ill sympathize with you
If you laugh Ill die
If you laugh Ill die

Death Of A Loved One (2)
i hold your hand
and assure you
that all is fine
that you will simply
be transferred
to another room
and that soon
we shall follow
you shed your tears
i say goodbye
you give me a smile
and then you close
your eyes

Round & Round & Round
Round and round and round and round and round we go
Trying so hard to get a hold of everyone here
Weve got to show how much we love them all
We squeak with idiot fake surprise
Flap our hands and flutter our eyes
And lap up all their stupid lies
Weve got to love them all
And I really dont know why we do it like this
Imitation smiles and how its wonderful to be her
Im really not sure what were so scared well mis
So round and round and round and round and round we go
Hanging on every shape they throw
Its strange the way we cant say no
Until we love them all...
So we laugh at every stupid joke
And smoke and choke and point and poke
And gag on countless lines...
How much we love them all!
And I really dont know why we do it like this
Imitation smiles and how its wonderful to be her
Im really not sure what were so scared well mis
Maybe its the sex with the drugs and the fools
Or maybe its the promise of belief?
Maybe its the pleasure and the pain of the cruel
Or maybe its the promise of relief?
And I know that weve said it so many times
once more and never again
But however many times that weve said it before
Once more is never the end...

Youre All I Need To Get By
(nickolas ashford/valerie simpson)
When I was just a little girl
I wanted the world at my feet
Now all thats changed
cause I have love
And now I do can see
Youre all I need to get by
Like the sweet morning dew
I took one look at you
And it was plain to see
You were my destiny
With arms open wide
I threw away my pride
Ill sacrifice for you
Dedicate my life to you
I will go, where you lead
Always there in time of need
And when you lose your will
Ill be there to push you up the hill
Theres no, no looking back for us
Weve got love
Sure enough
Thats enough
Youre all I need to get by
All, youre all I need to get by
Like an mother protects his nest
For you Ill do my best
Stand by you like a tree
Dare anybody to try to move me
Darling in you I found
Strength where I was torn down
Dont know whats in store
But together we can open any door
Just to do whats good for you
And inspire you a little higher
I know you can make a woman
Out of a soul that didnt have a goal
cause we, we got the right foundation
And with love and determination
Youre all I want to strive for and do a little more
All, all the joys under the sun wrapped up into
Youre all I need to get by
All, youre all I need to get by

Ill Give You My Skin
Well you
You can sit in your highchairs
Highchairs are for children
You can sit in your highchairs and laugh
Ill give you my best face
Ill give you my freedom
Ill give you my feet and my hands
Im keeping my eyes
Open open open to the field
Hold your dances there
Take the crop
Share the yield
You can join us together
Break us apart
A wound in the skin is a break in the heart
You can coast on your laughter
High shelf your heart
But laughters for healing
Not tearing apart
Im keeping my eyes
Open to the fields
You can hold your dances there
Take the crop
Share the yield
Not a soul is lost
But collapse in the walls
You can dance in the dust
You can walk it off walk walk it off
If youre falling youre falling
Come calling to me
Falling falling
Ill give you my skin
I will give you my skin
Im keeping my eyes
Open to the field
(if youre falling youre falling come calling to me)
You can hold your dances here
(if youre falling youre falling come calling to me)
Take the crop, share the yield
(if youre falling youre falling come calling to me)
Im keeping my eyes
(if youre falling youre falling come calling to me)
Open to the field
(if youre falling youre falling come calling to me)
Hold your dances there
(if youre falling youre falling come calling to me)
Take the crop share the yield
If youre falling youre falling come calling to me
If youre falling youre falling come calling to me

Hard Times
Weve seen some hard times, hard times
Holding it together aint always easy
An angry man, hungry woman
Theyre driving each other crazy
Its so low down, show down
Theres nothing else safe to say
Babys on the town, babys looking round
Talking bout walking away
Dont let go
Got to give it one more chance
Weve got to hold on
Loving me may not make much sense
But Im gone on you, baby
Baby, Im gone
And I want you back again
I may be wrong for you, baby
Maybe Im wrong
But I love you just the same
Now, weve got to hold on, got to hold on
Weve got to hold on, got to hold on
Weve got to hold on, got to hold on
Weve got to hold on, got to hold on
Weve got to hold on, got to hold on
Hard times, hard times
Holding it together aint always easy
Angry man, hungry woman
Driving each other crazy
Weve got to hold on through all
Those hard times

Cant Smile Without You
(c. arnold/d. martin/g. morrow)
Chorus:
You know I cant smile without you
I cant smile without you
I cant laugh and I cant sing
Im finding it hard to do anything
You see I feel sad when youre sad
I feel glad when youre glad
If you only knew what Im going through
I just cant smile without you
You came along just like a song
And brightened my day
Who would believe that youre part of a dream
Now it all seems light years away
You know I cant smile without you
I cant smile without you
I cant laugh and I cant sing
Im finding it hard to do anything
You see I feel sad when youre sad
I feel glad when youre glad
If you only knew what Im going through
I just cant smile
Some people say happiness takes
So very long to find
But Im finding it hard
Leaving your love behind me, so you see
I cant smile without you
I cant smile without you
I cant laugh and I cant sing
Im finding it hard to do anything
You see I feel glad when youre glad
I feel sad when youre sad
If you only knew what Im going through
I just cant smile without you

Have You Ever Been In Love?
In the morning light
Half awake and half asleep
Have you ever laid there thinking
Was it all a dream?
But you reach out and shes there
Every moment, everywhere
Have you ever been in love?
Have you ever felt
How far a heart can fall
Have you ever stayed up waiting
For a telephone call
Just to hear her say hello
cause you miss each other so
Have you ever been in love?
Have there been times to laugh
And times you really want to cry
Finding reasons to believe her
cause youd die a little if she lied
And when in times of doubt
Have you ever tried to work it out
But still she leaves you wondering
What its all about
And when shes far away
Have you ever felt the need to stray
And tried and then discovered
It just doesnt pay
cause with her, you can be true
And with her, you can be you
Have you ever been in love?
Have there been times to laugh
And times you really want to cry
Finding reasons to believe her
cause youd die a little if she lied
And when in times of doubt
Have you ever tried to work it out
But still she leaves you wondering
What its all about
And when the night comes down
Can you call your house a home
Do you dream youre still together
And wake up alone
Have you ever been in love
The way that Im in love
Have you ever been in love?
