If I Have To Be Alone
If I have to be alone
Then I should make my mind serene
After all youre born alone, you die alone
You might as well spend every moment in between alone
But if I have to be alone
Then it will be on my own terms
I can never talk about it, ever show it
Even though the world is watching while I squirm alone
And your bleeding heart friends say, isnt it sad?
Then they go make love
While you go insane. insane!
It drives you mad! mad!
My mind, I love my mind
And if no one can feel the same
Im a computer with a name
And Ive got no one else to blame
If I have to be alone
And if nobody understands
That special creature that is me
And if they fail to see the me I see
Then no one else knows truly what it is
To be alone
Maybe once in a lifetime you lose your will
Then you can let down your guard
But they cower in fear. in fear.
It makes you ill! ill!
My heart, my burning heart
And if no one will quench the flame
Im not obliged to do the same
And then theyll have to share the blame
Because I have to be alone
Because I have to be alone
But I dont want to be alone

I Close My Eyes & Count To Ten
(clive westlake)
It isnt the way that you look
And it isnt the way that you talk
It isnt the things that you say or do
Make me want you so
It is nothing to do with the wine
Or the music thats flooding my mind
But never before have I been so sure
Youre the someone I dreamed I would find
Its the way you make me feel
The moment I am close to you
Its a feeling so unreal
Somehow I cant believe its true
The pounding I feel in my heart
The hoping that well never part
I cant believe this is really happening to me
I close my eyes and count to ten
And when I open them youre still here
I close my eyes and count again
I cant believe it but youre still here
We were strangers a moment ago
With a few dreams but nothing to show
The world was a place
With a frown on its face
And tomorrow was just, I dont know
But the way you make me feel
The moment I am close to you
Makes today seem so unreal
Somehow I cant believe its true
Tomorrow will you still be here?
Tomorrow will come but I fear
That what is happening to me
Is only a dream
I close my eyes and count to ten
And when I open them youre still here
I close my eyes and count again
I cant believe it but youre still here
I close my eyes and count to ten
And when I open them youre still here

Invaders Of The Heart
Words and music by rick nielsen
(its rolling)
(oh, wrong song)
(its rolling)
Invaders of the heart
Are messin with my mind
Invaders of the heart
Can make your heart blind
Invaders of the heart
Are drivin me insane
Invaders of the heart
Are playin with my brain
I cant see anymore
Now Ive gotten tunnel vision
I cant be anyone
I just got no direction
I cant see anything
But I dont need glasses on
I cant think anymore
Im just a nervous wreck
Invaders of the heart
Are messin with my mind
Invaders of the heart
Can make your heart blind
Invaders of the heart
Are drivin me insane
Invaders of the heart
Are playin with my brain
I cant see anymore
Always buckle under pressure
I cant be anyone
The slightest thing will set me off
I cant feel anything
Im on pins and Im on needles
I cant think anymore
Ive lost my appetite
Invaders of the heart
Are messin with my mind
Invaders of the heart
Can make your heart blind
Invaders of the heart
Are drivin me insane
Invaders of the heart
Are playin with my brain
(take it, rick: 1, 2 ,3, 4, 5, 6 ,7 ,8 ,9 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32...)

Make your heart blind

Insane
Somebody told me it was over
Nobody told me where it began
No one believes in you
I understand
Like a blind man
Whos lost his way
No one hears a word
Of what you say
I forgive you
Would you do the same
I would believe you
If only youd be true
I would believe if it were true
Cause everybody wants to be a winner
Nobody wants to lose their game
Its the same for me
Its the same for you
Its insane insane insane insane insane
Insane insane insane insane insane insane
I dont know where youve been looking
I think its only in your mind
Its tied so tight inside of you
All the thoughts unkind
I would believe you
If only youd be true
I would believe if it were true
Cause everybody wants to be a winner
Nobody wants to lose their game
Its the same for me
Its the same for you
Its insane insane insane insane insane
Insane insane insane insane insane
Insane
I would believe you
If only youd be true
Im getting older
And I cant escape time
Cause everybody wants to be a winner
Nobody wants to lose their game
Its the same for me
Its the same for you
Its insane insane insane insane insane
Insane insane insane
Cause everybody wants to be a winner
Nobody wants to lose their game
Its the same or me
Its the same for you
Its insane insane insane insane insane
Insane insane insane insane insane insane

Lose Again
(karla bonoff)
Heres a song that I wish Id sung before linda ronstadt
Sang it, this is a song that, perhaps youve never heard
Her sing it actually, its by a very young and talented
Songwriter called karla bonoff. I dont know why I put it
In the act except I think its really pretty. I hope you
Do too... thank you.
Save me
Free me from my heart this time
The trains gone down the track
And i, Ive stayed behind
Nothing can free me
From this ball and chain
I made up my mind
I would leave today
But youre keeping me going
I know its insane
cause I love you and lose again
When the heart calls
The mind obeys
Oh, it knows better than me
If I hold on
Just one more day
Then maybe, babe, youd hear me true
cause nothing can free me
From this ball and chain
I made up my mind
I would leave today
But youre keeping me going
I know its insane
Because I love you and lose again
Ooh, ooh
Nothing can free me
From this ball and chain
I made up my mind
I would leave today
But youre keeping me going
I know its insane
cause I love you and lose again
Because I love you and lose again

When “I” Sin
Their treacherous glance ignites “I”
Their seductive stare entraps “I”
Their innocent wink encourages “I”
And yet “I”
Blame my mind
“I” would blame my heart
But my heart can’t see
When “I” sin
You see the lust in “I”
Pleasure now seduces “I”
Temptation steer “I”
And yet “I”
Blame my mind
“I” would blame my heart
But my heart can’t see
When “I” sin
Society influences “I”
Their ignorance lures “I”
Arms, legs, ears and tong follow “I”
And yet “I”
Blame my mind
“I” would blame my heart
But my heart can’t see
When “I “sin

I Think That Im In Love With You
Yeah, oh
Im in love
Every time youre near baby
I get kinda crazy in my head for you
And I dont know what to do
And oh baby
I get kinda shaky when they mention you
I just lose my cool
My friends tell me
Somethin has come over me
And I think I know what it is
I think Im in love
Chorus:
Boy I think that Im in love with you
Got me doin silly things when it comes to you (in love)
Boy I think that Im in love with you
(boy I think Im in love)
Ive been telling all of my friends what I feel for you
Just the other night baby
I saw you hangin
You were with your crew
I was with mine too
You took me by surprise
When you turned and looked me in my eyes
Boy you really blew my mind
I dont know whats gotten into me
But I kinda think I know what it is
I think Im in love
Chorus
Boy I think that Im in love with you
Ive been tellin all of my friends what I feel for you
Something strange has come over me
Got me goin out of my mind
Never met a guy like you before
You make me feel special inside
I think Im in love c boy yeah
Chorus
(see i, oh Im in love with you)
Boy I think that Im in love with you
Got me doin silly things when it comes to you (goin outta my mind boy)
Boy I think that Im in love with you (I think Im in love)
Ive been tellin all of my friends what I feel for you
Baby thats why you call my name
Youre drivin me insane
Doin silly things for you
I dont know what to do

I Cant Help The Way I Dont Feel
(tom shapiro / chris waters / michael garvin)
You want me to say I love you too
Theres nothing in the world Id rather do
You will never know how hard Ive tried
But I cant change the way I feel inside
Its nothing that you did or havent done
Who knows what makes somebody love someone?
I wish thats the way that we could be
But love is up to love and not to me
I cant help the way that I dont feel
Take what isnt there and make it real
Youre where I should be going
But my heart is at the wheel
And I cant help the way that I dont feel
Its nothing that you did or havent done
Who knows what makes somebody love someone?
I wish thats the way that we could be
But love is up to love and not to me
I cant help the way that I dont feel
Take what isnt there and make it real
Youre where I should be going
But my heart is at the wheel
And I cant help the way that I dont feel, oh
I cant help the way that I dont feel
Take what isnt there and make it real
Youre where I should be going
But my heart is at the wheel
And I cant help the way, the way that I dont feel, oh, oh

When You Love, Love
when you love
love, do not think of any other thing
like a disease
HIV, cervical cancer, hepatitis
STD,
when you love
love with all your heart
kiss the leprosy in her heart
hug the virus on her breast
love, love, love with all your heart
make love with love
and savor the moment that love has offered
every drop...every moment...every ecstasy...
ever
when i love, i always love, i set aside the mind
i take everything at heart
i refuse to think
about the hurt
the future mess
the possibility of errors
i am blind
i just touch
and feel my way all through this maze
and when love is gone
if ever be
i take all the hurt, the blame, the regrets
it is love in me, it is this self-annhilation
this dying upon oneself for the other
this death
that gives my redemption, my resurrection
it is love
and not the thought of love
the love that is real that dies upon itself
only to be born again

Blame It On A Sad Song
(gary rossington -- johnny vanzant -- rickey medlocke -- hughie thomasson)
Here I sit all by myself
Wonderin how she could put our love on a shelf
A crowd of people, they pass me by
But all I can do is hang my head and cry
(chorus)
Blame it on a sad song in the night
I dont want anyone but you to make it right
Blame it on a sad song in the night
Well, its an old familiar feelin
Girl, its got my heart reelin
Dont want to hear a sad song in the night
Anymore
I know when we first started out
I was your only love and you had no doubt
But songs of the heart dont last forever
But dont you give up on love cause you never say never
Blame it on a sad song in the night
I dont want anyone but you to make it right
Blame it on a sad song in the night
Well, its an old familiar feelin
Girl, its got my heart reelin
Dont want to hear a sad song in the night
Anymore
cause not a day goes by that I dont think about you
Oh, moment to moment, I get lost in time
And many years from now when I hear that song come on the radio
All those feelings will come back to haunt me
My heart will let me know
Blame it on a sad song in the night
I dont want anyone but you to make it right
Blame it on a sad song in the night
Well, its an old familiar feelin
Girl, its got my heart reelin
Dont want to hear a sad song anymore
Blame it on a sad song
You can blame it on a sad song, baby
Blame it on, blame it on a sad song

You Are All I Need
Went to your house, baby they said you werent home
I asked if you could call me, then waited by the phone
I dont like this feelin, think Im slowly losin my mind
Girl I heard the rumors, you found somebody new
When I heard you had a new love, broke my heart in two
Honey let me hold you, tell you what you mean to me
I dont wanna lose ya, Im waitin here so patiently
You are all I need, girl you are the world to me
Youll break my heart in two if you found somebody new
You are all I need
My friends tell me Im crazy, youre just a waste of time
But a love like ours is special, youre always on my mind
Do I wanna hear the answer to the question that is
Burnin in me... oooooooh
Why cant I just hold you, and look into your eyes
Wrap your arms around me, make love to me tonight
Give me one more chance girl to show you
What you mean to me

The Core
By eric clapton and marcy levy
Every morning when I wake, a feeling soon begins to overtake me.
Ringing in my ears resounds through my brain; it finally surrounds me.
There is fire, there is life, there is passion, fever and fury.
There is love and there is hate, there is longing, anger and worry.
Oh, I am a flame; feel it touch my heart.
And down at my core is the hottest part.
I can run without fear.
If it should become too cold, I know I can endure the frostbite.
Oh, a blanket then Ill wrap around me; I keep myself so close to my sight.
No one then can cause me harm, just as the river runs into the sea.
cause every day, a fire alarm is deafening the silence all around me.
Chorus
It is burning.
It is burning.
You can trust me; we can laugh. together we can share our sorrow.
I will give you secrets too, an attitude that you may borrow.
Gypsy woman said to me, one thing you must bear in your mind:
You are young and you are free, but damned if youre deceased in your own lifetime.
Oh, you have a flame; feel it in your heart.
And down at the core is the hottest part.
We can run without fear.
It is burning.
It is burning.

How How
My life is in a serious mess,
My baby is gone, theres heavy mental stress
I never knew love but I know it now,
I wanna give her my heart, but how how
I never knew love but I know it now,
I wanna give her my heart, but how how
How how
Maybe I should buy her a beautiful dress,
Maybe gold and diamonds, and no more stress
I decide to call her, it drives me insane,
Then shes on the line and tells me dont be vain
I decide to call her, it drives me insane,
But then shes on the line and tells me I take the blame
You [? ] little fool and you know what I miss,
No diamonds, no gold, just a kiss
Just a kiss
I got nothing to lose so I know it doesnt matter,
I do it the old way and write her a letter
I know how much I love you and I need you now,
Youre the one and only and you tell me how
Now Im out of trouble and a serious mess,
My baby is back, no more stress
You know how much I love you and I need you now,
Ill give you my heart, just tell me how how

Forsaking My Love
I hate you
I wish to tear you away from me
This tumor that clings to my chest
The thing that makes me ache
That haunts my dreams
And tears at my desires
You have brought me only pain
My untamed heart
That beast that gnaws at my soul
That pitifully whines
Bringing my mind into unwanted pain
Yet how can I blame you
How can I chastise you when I listen intently to your pleas
Why should I punish you for what my eyes feed upon
How can I blame my eyes for falling upon her
She who brings light to the eternal darkness of my soul
She whose eyes bring me to subjection
Whose smile leaves me in awe
How can I blame you when my ears are met with her laughter
How they submerge into her song
How they quiver at her voice
Why should I punish you for inclining my soul
Tempting it with the one sense that has been forsaken by her
How could I look over the thought of the brushing of lips
The touching of hands
The binding of the soul, mind, and body
O you wretched heart
What am I to do with this constant companion
How could I tear you away
When she is the cause of my agony
Or rather
It is the lack of her which brings me sorrow
It is the need for her that leaves my heart in pain
Yet she is not mine
She was never mine
She will never be mine
O my poor heart
How can I make you see reason
When all you do is show me the truth

Fear Runs
I used to shiver I used to cry as a child
When an ambulance went by
Mother would try to comfort
her son with a smile
Couldn┬┤t help the damage done
I felt betrayed lying awake In the night
When my dad turned out the light
Stories of ghosts would
run through my mind
As I cried So sure they┬┤d lie
under my bed
It takes control of your mind
It leaves all reason behind
The fever comes from within you
Seems to come out of the blue
But there is nothing less true
Fear is something that┬┤s taught you
Fear runs so deep through your veins
drives an easy man insane
In your heart in your mind
visions of the strangest kind
Devastates from within
Feel it itch under your skin
Never knew now you do
It┬┤s always been inside of you
Your darkest hour you
knew would come must be now
You don't know where it comes from
Maybe you┬┤ll sleep maybe you won┬┤t
for toninght The thoughts
you fear are in control
It breaks the spine of your pride
Reveals the memories you hide
The ones you hoped that
would save you
They all remain from the years
When you would fight back your tear
With every warning they gave you
Fear runs so deep through your veins
drives an easy man insane
In your heart in your mind
visions of the strangest kind
Devastates from within
Feel it itch under your skin
Never knew now you do
It┬┤s always been inside of you

Living With You
Youve been teaching me a lesson
That Ive never learned
You never make it through a lifetime
Without being burned
Everything I ever thought you were
You turned out to be
Since you gave your love to me.
When I met you on a Monday
My life just stood still
I belong in every moment
That your love can fill
Let me be the only heart you can mend
Turn out the light and take it right to the end.
Chorus:
Living with you
In the madness of my mind
In a world I could not find
But you knew what to do
Living with you
Theres a full moon on the rise
Theres a fire in your eyes
And I was born to be.
Loving you under my skin
Youre everything to me
I could not love you more
And you know that you are mine
And thats what Im living for.
There will never be a question
Of somebody new
I could make it through a lifetime
With someone like you
Let me be the only heart...

Never My Love
You ask me if there'll come a time
When I grow tired of you
Never my love
Never my love
You wonder if this heart of mind
Will lose it's desire for you
Never my love
Never my love
What makes you think love will end
When you know that my whole life depends on you
You say you fear I'll change my mind
I won't require of you
Never my love
Never my love
How can you think love will end
When I've asked you to spend your whole life with me
You say you fear I'll change my mind
I won't require of you
Never my love

Talk To My Heart
I found a friend someone to help me
And a place I can be myself when Im in trouble now
Ive lost it and I dont know how
I come to you cause you can show me
Get me back to the me I know with a remedy
Baby I need your therapy
With your healing kiss you know how to make my mind relax
I will listen to the words you say and just lie back
Chorus
Talk to my heart thats where real talkin starts
Words of love that cut straight to my heart
Reach out and touch so few words say so much
I can hear you when you tell it like it is
When you talk straight to my heart
I guess it shows I need attention
Somehow youre asking all the right questions and Ive gotta say
Whats been on my mind these days
And I know you know just how to make my mind react
When its coming straight from you thats my first point of contact
Chorus
Talk to my heart thats where real talkin starts
Words of love that cut straight to my heart
Reach out and touch so few words say so much
I can hear you when you tell it like it is
When you talk straight to my
Im bad at making decisions
But being alone with you just feels so right feels so right
Im losing my inibitions
With every minute I share with you tonight share it with you tonight
