Crystal Ball (out-take)
Do we live our lives in moderation?
Does this appear
When you're around?
And the deeper in debt
The harder the bet
Your thoughts are one of a clown
Look out before you sign
Your soul away
The crystal ball, it seems
Is not reading to - reading today
Does the time seem right
For some rethinking?
It seems a gift that you have
Are you living a dream
Of express progress?
It's just a thought that you have
Oh, you should've know better
When the warning light was lit
As it did for others
You preach a sermon
When you talk of the Messiah
We are yet to discover
Thinkin', lovin', feelin'
But disbelievin' ...

That Lovin' You Feelin' Again
(Roy): When I saw you standing there on the street,
I found myself by your side.
I started wanting you again;
There's just no way to hide
from that old lovin' you feelin' again,
It's really got me reelin' again.
It only seems to stop
To start all over again with you.
(Emmy): I remember how you always get
that certain look in your eye.
You're not easy to resist,
but I just walked on by
with that old lovin' you feelin' again.(lovin' you feelin')
It's really got me reelin' again.(lovin' you)
It only seems to stop
to start all over again with you, (Lovin' you feelin')
(both): Lovin' you feelin' with you.
(Roy): We were so close.
(Emmy): We were too far apart.
(Roy): I gave you my love.
(emmy): I wanted your heart.
(Both): Without yesterday caught in the way,
maybe we'd still be together,
Sharing that lovin' you feelin' again.
It's really got me reelin' again.
Will it ever stop and not start over again,
That lovin' you feelin' again?.
No matter how much I try,
This lovin' you feelin' is why
It's taken such a long, long time
to say goodbye.
And getting over you. It's so hard to do
with this feeling loving you.
That lovin' you feelin' again,
Lovin' you feelin' again...
That lovin' you feelin' again
Lovin' you feelin' again...
That lovin' you feelin' again
Lovin' you feelin' again...
That lovin' you feelin' again
Lovin' you feelin' again...

Stifle not the reader
Reading is an art,
reading is a tool.
Those who think it dumb,
must be such a fool.
Reading is enjoyment,
reading is a blast.
Reading is a separate entity
from the future and the past.
Reading is done in present,
though written in a tense.
Reading is about life,
in surprise or suspense.
Reading is a place of joy,
full of hope and song,
Reading is a place I feel
that I truly do belong.
A trapdoor to a fantasy,
A world thought lost to us,
Reading is a place of wonder,
a place that we can trust.
Why read about reality,
when I can delve into magic.
Why stifle my own happiness,
with scenarios so tragic.
Stifle not the reader,
for it is their choice alone.
Reading is an outlet,
for hearts that turned to stone.
Living the Dream
What would it be like to live the dream
People reading my poems and knowing what they mean
What would it be like to live the dream
Every where I went people knowning who they seen
What would it be like to live the dream
Be like shakespear or someone talented I don’t even come near
What would it be like to live the dream
Without living everyday wanting to scream
What would it be like to live the dream
At only the age that I am 18
What would it be like to live the dream
Of being happy in life and working with a team
What would it be like to live the dream
Get my work out there and people would care
What would it be like to live the dream
of being famous and hearing people scream
what would it be like to live the dream
people reading my poems and knowing what they mean

We live in us many dreams and desires that will become reality in a beautiful day.
Reading is the true bridge of the dream:it saves us, makes us human, equal, reading we listen to how the dream flourishes in us.

Can This Be Real?
Your face, my door
Havent we both been here before
Sightless no more
No vision so high
Your touch, my hand
Suspecting that I understand
Night stands passin
Im askin, your life
Can this be real ?
Can this be lovin feelin
Can this be a dream that fades a morning light
Can this be real ?
Can this be lovin feelin
Are you what you seem, will you be real tonight
Ouick turn, long stares
Is that a shadow or are there
You feel so real
But is this confusion
Ooh your voice soft and low
Comes in my ear and breezes that blow
No choice I knew
I ask my illusions
Can this be real ?
Can this be lovin feelin
Can this be a dream that fades a morning light
Can this be lovin feelin
Are you what you seem, will you be real tonight
Night goes and days here
I can still remember the taste of the tear
I still face a cold stare
The essence of someone is constantly here
Can this be real ?
I can almost feel your touch
But youre not there
This - and I need you in the end, yeah, oh
Can this be real ?
Can this be lovin feelin
Can this be a dream that fades a morning light
Can this be lovin feelin
Are you what you seem, will you be real tonight
Your face, my door
Havent we both been here before

Crystal Ball
Written by tommy shaw
Lead vocals by tommy shaw
I used to like to walk the straight and narrow line
I used to think that everything was fine
Sometimes Id like to sit and gaze for days through sleepless dreams
All alone and trapped in time
All alone and trapped in time
I wonder what tomorrow has in mind for me
Or am I even in its mind at all
Perhaps Ill get a chance to look ahead and see
Soon as I find myself a crystal ball
Soon as I find myself a crystal ball
Tell me, tell me where Im going
I dont know where Ive been
Tell me, tell me, wont you tell me
And then tell me again
My heart is breaking, my bodys aching
And I dont know where to go
Tell me, tell me, wont you tell me
Ive just got to know
Crystal ball
Theres so many things I need to know
Crystal ball
Theres so many things Ive got to know
Crystal ball
[extra verse used occasionally live]
If you should see me walking
Through your dreams at night
Would you please direct me
Where I ought to be
Ive been looking for a crystal ball
To shed the light
To find a future in me...
To find a future in me...
Crystal ball
Theres so many things I need to know
Crystal ball
Theres so many things Ive got to know
Crystal ball

Return To Sanctity
When allergy symptoms become unbearable I
always end up sitting cross-legged on my bed
reading the Bible - Proverbs and Ecclesiastes
the Sermon on the Mount and Ephesians, if
feeling adventurous a quick detour to one
Corinthians thirteen
Why love is more important than faith and hope
though I believe wisdom is required to apply love
correctly – without it, love becomes impractical
even faith and hope only acquire value if led by
wisdom as blind faith and false hope are sign-
posts leading nowhere
After reading everything prescribed and required
and all that appeals to me; I return to the sanctity
in the words of the scribes to rest my mind, taking
my thoughts on a religious journey to calm
my soul and release my feelings...

Some Notes About You
reading what you have
written
excites me.
I salute your
sweetness in
being candid to every word.
reading one poem leads to
another
until i get to know you
every hair lock
every nail
bite.
and then i experience
not just the
high of your thoughts
but the
fear too, that i can be soon like
you
lost, sad, and in pain.
and so today i call it quits.
after reading you
it feels like visiting Beijing
and then
promising myself that
i shall not return
to such place
again.
there is this exhaustion,
that rises above
the respect for what is old and
miserable.

VERSE 2
I never fell so deep in love

Hopin you will never go away

Said my love will be all you ever need
We'll be together for eternally
CHORUS

I Thought It Took A Little Time
(m. masser/p. sawyer)
Am i really hard to please ?
Perhaps i have such special needs
I wondered what was wrong with me
My friends all fall so easily
But today i fell in love with someone i hardly know
Did i make myself imagine that he could love me so ?
'cause the feeling was so unexpected
I could hardly keep myself collected
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin'
Never did believe in lovin' on sight
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin'
All i know is now it's gotta be right
In the midst of conversation he looked into my eyes
And all through the conversation
Much to my own surprise
Half the words he said to me were missin'
'cause my mind was so intend on kissin'
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin'
Never did believe in lovin' on sight
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin'
All i know is now it's gotta be right
Am i really hard to please ?
Perhaps i have such special needs
I wondered what was wrong with me
My friends all fall so easily
But today i fell in love with someone i hardly know
Did i make myself imagine that he could love me so ?
And the feelin' was so deep inside me
I could feel it when he brushed beside me
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin'
Never did believe in lovin' on sight
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin'
All i know is now it's gotta be right

With An Adventuring To Do To Explore More
Did I think,
One day you'd be reading me?
No!
Not this way.
But Reading you,
And the things people did and do.
I've always done.
Using a pad and pen.
To diescribe situations,
I'd find myself in.
Today who reads what I say,
Or believes what I express.
Depicts me best.
May or may not be true at the time.
Since my mind finds topic to explore.
And when I've completed my interest.
I leave that behind to open another door.
With an adventuring to do to explore more.
Is what I use my writing for.
To expose 'my' heart on my sleeve to me is a bore.

That's What I Get For Loving You
(Kent Blazy/Neil Thrasher)
I start every day with a smile on my face
And the feel of a kiss on my lips
When the world plays to rough I can find a healin touch
Lifes never been better than this
Thats what I get for lovin you
Heavens right here in my hands
A dream that is real and a heart that beats true
Thats what I get for lovin you
There was a time I walked outside the lines
I only thought of myself
Then you sat me down turned my head around
Now, I put you before everything else
Thats what I get for lovin you
Heavens right here in my hands
A dream that is real and a heart that beats true
Thats what I get for lovin you
Love is a feelin I never knew much about
Forevers a word I never said until now
Thats what I get for lovin you
Heavens right here in my hands
A dream that is real and a heart that beats true
Thats what I get for lovin you
Thats what I get for lovin you
Heavens right here in my hands
A dream that is real and a heart that beats true

I'm Not Feelin It Anymore
Have to get back, have to get back the base
I need to talk to somebody, I can trust
Too many cooks, are tryin' to spoil the broth
I can't feel it in my throat, that's all she wrote
I'm not feeling it no more, I'm not feeling it anymore
Not feelin' it no more, not feelin' it anymore
When I was high at the party, everything looked good
I was seein' through rose coloured glasses
Not seein' the wood for the trees
I started out in normal operation
But I just ended up in doubt
All my drinking buddies, they locked me out
I'm not feelin' it no more, I'm not feelin' it anymore
No feelin' it no more, I'm tryin' to give you the score
You see me up there baby, I'm on the screen
But I know better now, it's so unreal
If this is success, then something's awful wrong
'Cause I bought the dream and I had to play along
I'm not feelin' it no more, I'm not feelin' it anymore
I'm tryin' to give you the score, I'm not feelin' it no more
We all know that money, don't buy you love
You just get a job and somewhere to live
You have to look for happiness, within yourself
And don't go chasin' thinkin' that it is somewhere else
I'm not feelin' it no more, I'm not feelin' it anymore
Baby I'm tryin' to give you the score,
I'm not feelin' it no more
I was pretending all the time
I was givin' everybody what they wanted
And I lost my peace of mind
And all I ever wanted was simply just to be me
All you ever need is the truth
And the truth will set you free
I'm not feelin' it no more, I'm not feelin' it anymore
I'm tryin' to give you the score, just like I did before
I'm not feelin' it no more, I'm not feelin' it anymore
I'm not feelin' it no more, baby I'm just trying to give you the score
I'm not feelin' it no more, not feelin' it anymore

Not feelin' it no more baby

2010/01/10 Innovative And New
Started running since Friday, running from knowing
by reading Seth, several lives running concurrently
for many entities, aspects of soul
Running from knowing on Monday this week I am
back at work, a good place to be, given my col-
leagues, a nightmare of course
Given the way it is run by Human Resources trying
to force us to give account of every breath we take,
every gesture we make
Every thought that crosses our mind, for some it is
a piece of cake, for others, like me, the most scary
idea in the Multiverse, my thoughts
Need to be free, how would progress have taken
place if everybody where under the edict to think
the acceptable thought
Never thinking of the unexpected, the innovative
and new?
