Sheltered Life
Never been to london, never been to france
Never was sorry never learned to dance
Never walked down to 42nd street and frairs
Never smoked any filtered air
Guess its true what all the people say
Gonna have to mend my old time ways, yeah
I guess its true, guess, Ive lived a sheltered life
Never walked about on the streets at night
Never got into an uptown fight
Never smoked a hookah, never saw a rug
Couldnt even squash a beetle bug
Guess its true Im gonna have to change my ways
Guess its true what all the people say, yeah
I know its true, guess, Ive lived a sheltered life
Never went to parties in a chauffeured car
Never wore a top hat cause I wont get far
Never learned to handle all the things that Ive seen
Maybe Ill grow up to be big and mean
Guess its true what all the people say
Gonna have to change my old fashioned ways, well
I guess its true, guess, Ive lived a sheltered life

A Sheltered Life
Never been to england, never been to france
Never really learned how to dance
Ive never taken dope and Ive never taken drugs
Ah, Ive never danced on a bear-skin rug
Guess its true, what all those people they say
Im gonna have to loose my hometown ways
Guess its true, guess Ive led a sheltered life
Never went around with anything
Ive had a hometown life, and I have never learned to swing
Not much of a life, I havent seen much
Ive been true to my wife and its just been too much
Guess its true, what all these people they say
Im gonna have to lose my hometown ways
You know its true, guess Ive led a sheltered life
Guess its true, what all those people they say
Im gonna have to lose my hometown ways
Guess its true, guess Ive led a sheltered life

Life On Your Own
Winter is approaching
Theres snow upon the ground
Its good of you to visit me
Im glad you came around
I dont know how you found me
I didnt let you know
I only moved to this address
About a week ago
I guess you think I ran out
But thats not true
Other people settle down
I never do
I always have to move on
Just have to go
Ive often wondered why that is
Id like to say but I just dont know
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
Up here the summers shorter
And winters very cold
Im looking forward to the peace
My lonely life will hold
Im really glad you came here
Thank you for the talk
Its funny how my problem stopped
When we went for a walk
Standing here together
Means so much
I wont forget your confidence
I wont forget your touch
You know Ill come to see you
Passing through
Well always be a world apart
Ill travel on but I will be true
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own

Your Woman
Just tell me what you've got to say to me,
I've been waiting for so long to hear the truth,
It comes as no surprise at all you see,
So cut the crap and tell me that we're through.
Now I know your heart, I know your mind,
You don't even know you're being unkind,
So much for all your highbrow Marxist ways,
Just use me up and then you walk away,
Boy you can't play me that way.
Well I guess what you say is true,
I could never be the right kind of girl for you,
I could never be your woman.
When I saw my best friend yesterday,
She said she never liked you from the start,
Well me, I wish that I could claim the same,
But you always knew you held my heart.
And you're such a charming handsome man,
Now I think I finally understand,
Is it in your genes?, I don't know,
But I'll soon find out, that's for sure,
Why did you play me this way?.
Well I guess what you say is true,
I could never be the right kind of girl for you,
I could never be your woman.
Well I guess what they say is true,
I could never spend my life with a man like you,
I could never be your woman.

Lord I Guess I'll Never Know
I heard you stirring in your sleep last night
I was awake with something on my mind
What happens when I leave, will you come with me?
These things I guess I'll never know
Tell me, who do you see when you die in your dreams?
Tell me, who do you touch when you come in your dreams?
I know that sometimes I get lost
Been asking questions since the day I could talk
Life is sweet but when my bones get cold
Will you be there for me to hold?
Tell me, who do you see when you die in your dreams?
Tell me, who do you touch when you come in your dreams?
Tell me, who do you see when you die in your dreams?
Tell me, could it be yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You holding me
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know (repeat)
When you die in your dreams
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know
Will I be holding you?
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know
When I die in my sleep
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know
Will I be holding you?
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know
When you come in your dreams
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know
Am I holding you
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know
When you come in your dreams
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know
Am I holding you
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know

Next Lifetime
[1] - Now what am I supposed to do
When I want you in my world
How can I want you for myself
When I'm already someone's girl? [2 times]
First time that I saw you boy
It was a warm and sunny day
All I know is I wanted you
I really hoped you looked my way
When you smiled at me
So warm and sweet
I could not stay
You make me feel like a lilting girl
What do you do to me
[Repeat 1 (2 times)]
I guess I'll see you next lifetime
No hard feelings
I guess I'll see you next lifetime
I'm gonna be there
You're imaging
Feels so damn good to me
It picks me up don't wanna come down
You got me spinning all around
Yeah
You need to know
I've got that somebody
You're beautiful
But it ain't that type of party
[Repeat 1 (2 times)]
Well I guess I'll see you next lifetime
Baby we'll be butterflies
I guess I'll see you next lifetime
That sounds so divine
I guess I'll see you next lifetime
I guess I will now
I guess I'll see you next lifetime
Wait
Wait a little while
See it ain't nothing wrong with dreaming
Boy don't get me wrong
Cause every time (every time) I see you (every single time)
I know just how strong (every single time)
That my love is for my baby
But emotions just don't lie
Well I know I'm a lot of woman
But not enough to divide the pie
[Repeat 1 (1 time)]
I guess I'll see you next lifetime
You know I want to stay around
I guess I'll see you next lifetime
I'm so confused now
[Repeat 1 (1 time)]
I guess I'll see you next lifetime
Already
I'm going to be there
I guess I'll see you next lifetime
I'm going to look for you
[Repeat 1 (1 time)]

Cant Have Your Cake
When I was a young boy my mama would say
Son, you aint always gonna get your way
Times will be good, times will be bad
You aint always gonna get a winning hand
Son, she always said, you gotta stand tall
Even when it looks like youll take a fall
Life is short and sometimes sweet
Get out of the kitchen if you cant take the heat
(pre-chorus)
Everything she said was true
My mama never was a fool
Gotta live your life by the golden rule
(chorus)
I guess its true what they say
Really true what they say
I guess what mama said was true
Cant have your cake and eat it too, babe
I never doubted any word my
Mutha said
With all the sinnin runnin round my head

why don't you come and feed me
feed me all my memories
and I'll wash it down with all of your goodness
your goodness
I guess I won
but I just can't seem to change
you lied to me, you lied to me
you don't even know my name
there is good in me and it's proud to love you
I chose to be a dreamer
but your reality seems sweeter
to taste it would turn my whole life
around and around
I guess I won
but I just can't seem to change
you lied to me, you lied to me
you don't even know my name
there is good in me and it's proud to love
I am containing what is real
for something I can not conceal

Betrayal
There is this boy I know
Who is my whole entire world.
I am truly lucky
To be his own very special girl.
He doesn't know how much
He means to me;
More than the sky,
More than the sea,
More than the air,
We so ungratefully breathe.
He doesn't know
When he's not there,
The life around me
Becomes completely bare.
Everything else just turns to gray.
No wonder every day is just okay.
Now yet another comes along,
Why must everything always go wrong?
Every day it seems I fight,
For me to be what he thinks at night.
Another girl to take him from me.
There is no way that could possibly be.
I love him more than anyone else ever could.
Who would get in the way of that?
She would...
Our anniversary passed,
With nothing good to last.
I knew she liked you,
But did you know, too?
She kept on flirting,
Inside I was hurting,
Because I knew it must be true.
She really, truly likes you.
I wish she wouldn't care
Not even notice you're there.
Because now I know
I cannot ever let you go.
I've always trusted you
That everything you said was true
Just not her, wouldn't even try.
Has everything she said been a lie?
I knew it all along.
Did I ever do anything wrong?
I know she's your friend
But anything else needs to end.
Just a friend to you,
And that may be true,
But to her something more.
Please let her walk out the door.
I tried to be nice,
Say you could be friends,
For her, that would not suffice.
So now, I want it to end.
It's gone way too far
To go on any longer.
If you stay with her,
Your relationship will just get stronger.
Just let her go!
Do you want her or me?
If you say her
Then let me be.
If you say me
Then let her fall!
Don't care anymore.
I was right, after all.
I should be mad at you
Because you led her on,
Is it possible you could be true?
If not, before long I'll be gone.
Is it too good to be true?
Could you really be mine?
I guess not, though,
Because this is the second time.
Why do you do this to me?
Why do you even care?
Why did you pretend,
You would always be there?
You were my friend.
I trusted you.
I thought you were different.
I thought you were true.
I guess I was mistaken.
I guess I was wrong.
Last thing I have to say,
Is I knew all along.
You liked him,
You used me,
To get even closer,
How stupid could you be?
There'll be no apologies,
Or 'Wait that isn't fair.'
Life isn't fair.
And guess what?
I don't care.

He'll Never Be
98 degrees he'll never be...(what i used to be to you)
I heard you found yourself a new man
And you say you're as happy as can be
No one can play the game like you can
But does he give you everything you need
But in good time
You're gonna find
You're eyes were closed
And your heart was blind
Now it's too late to change your fate
Cause there's no way he'll ever take my place.
He'll never be
What i used to be to you
So if you wanna play the fool
Then make that move
And do what ya gotta do
You'll never find
A heart that is half as true
I guess you really never knew
But soon you'll see
That he'll never be
What i used to be to you
Does he even have a notion
Of what you really feel inside
Are you going through the motions
Livin' a lie like you're satisfied
But late at night
You realize
There's somethin' tellin' you it just ain't right
It's not the same
Am i to blame
And when you're with him
Do call my name
He'll never be
What i used to be to you
So if you wanna play the fool
Then make that move
And do what ya gotta do
You'll never find
A heart that is half as true
I guess you really never knew
But soon you'll see
That he'll never be
What i used to be to you
I gave you all my love
What were you thinking of
Guess it was just a game
It's all the same to you
Too late to try again
This story's at an end
It's time for movin' on
Now what ya gonna do
He'll never be
What i used to be to you
So if you wanna play the fool
Then make that move
And do what ya gotta do
You'll never find
A heart that is half as true

Journey Santiago - It's a Life we Live to Love
Journey Santiago
Discover in your search
A land in love with mystery
Its not far out of reach
I know a girl and she says she’s seen it all
She knows a boy who thinks he knows it all
She says she’s the kind of girl who could be it all
She says she knows a boy who thinks he’s fallen for her
In a land in love with mystery
We could be happy and I guess we could be free
He says he wants to know the secret of your eyes
He wants to slip between your thighs girl
But it comes as no surprise that you’re turning away now
When he says
Every dream I have I am kissing you
Every life I’ve lived I’ve been missing you.
And he claims you are his world
He wants to lay down by the fire with you
He claims he can make you happy
In a land in love with mystery.
Journey Santiago
Forever in your search
Seek the love that makes you whole
It’s not far out of reach.
Can’t you see the passion in his eyes?
Can’t you tell he’d sail the skies for you?
And still you’re turning away when he says
Every dream I have is of kissing you
Every life I’ve lived, I’ve been missing you
Still it’s true in a thousand ways
That you paint me blue in a thousand shades
Then leave me wading here
Shaking from the nightmare
Won’t you share a while and listen
Won’t you smile a smile and glisten
Lighten up the day for me
Join me in a love of mystery
She wants to know if you shed a tear for Alice
As she walked in wonderland
For she said that she may never understand you
If you don’t know the wonder of this land
I guess it’s true in a thousand ways
She paints me blue in a thousand shades
And still I’m waiting here
Shaking from the nightmare
I guess it’s true in a thousand ways
Oh how she paints me blue with the words she says
And still I’m waiting here
Shaking from the nightmare
It’s a life we live to love

Guess....
Just guess.. they're 3 words thats it, not too hard

allow me to get close....close...
closer to you before i am taken by comatose,
let me lean in and whisper my 3 words to you
the 3 words i hope you know them too
one guess and one guess only, as i
tickle and tease you, galvanize your imagination so far as to fly
can you share my joy?
maybe you will share my joy after you guess, this isn't a decoy
I'm not running, I'm honest allow me to caress
you and fondle with your hair but guess
just 3 words,3 magic ones, last hint...closer..magic... heres the spell
it changes you and me to us, now you should know quite well

as you stand here right next to me

but first just guess and I will guess your next words too
3 magic words, , , , closer just three to change my story

and tease you, , ,3 words guess i ask you answer in four

I Dont Wanna Know
Well you followed me this far
Did you find out whats inside
Can you tell me what Im doing
Is it something I should hide
I dont know for sure
I dont wanna find out what I left there for
Im not scared and Im not lonely
Saving all my money or my breath
Im not looking for an answer
Or anyone to second guess no
You told me all your secrets
And I filled you up with lies
Now Im living honestly
Because I said goodbye
I cant go home anymore
I dont wanna find out what I left there for
Im not scared and Im not lonely
Saving all my money or my breath
Im not looking for an answer
Im not asking anyone to second guess
I was losing all my senses
I was losing all control
It was getting so offensive
Now you want me back for more
And I just wont go
If you think you know the answers
Youve got a lot of gall
Cause it gives you satisfaction
Knowing nothing at all
I dont care anymore
And I dont wanna find out what I left there for
What I left there for
Im not scared and Im not lonely
Saving all my money or my breath
Im not looking for an answer
Im not asking anyone to take a second guess no
Im not scared and Im not lonely
Saving all my money or my breath yeah
Im not looking for an answer
Im not asking anyone to take a second guess no
Take a second guess yeah

Miss The Lights

The smoothest (? ? ? ) in (? ? ? )
The mission boys all cross their palms
Dont you know who I am
I guess you miss the lights? huh!
I guess you miss the fame
I guess you miss everybody
Hanging onto your name
Little caesar is prince of the city
? ? ?
In this town theres no pity
This man stands alone
I guess you miss the lights - ha!
I guess you miss the fame
I guess you miss everybody
Hanging onto your name
Sometimes when youre all alone
And the blue turns to gray
Better get down on those pinky knees,
And you start to pray
I guess you miss the lights - ha!
I guess you miss the fame
I guess you miss everybody
Kiss-kissing your name
(instrumental)
A glimmering ? , a twilight star
And so much love for show,
A returning wave from the gallery bar
And share the afterglow
I guess you miss the lights
I guess you miss the fame
I guess you miss everybody
Hanging onto your name
Ha!
I guess you miss the lights
I guess you miss the fame, haha!
I guess you miss everybody
Hanging onto your name

I guess you miss everybody

River
Lately we've been talking 'bout who we are
Seems we don't know anymore
And all this time that we've been thinking
At night I've been dreaming about you
And I know you don't believe me when I say
I'll love you till the end forever and a day
And I guess we'll never know (we'll never know)
Exactly where this river is gonna flow
And I guess we'll never understand (understand)
Till we reach that promised land
So I guess we'll never know
People say that we're sweethearts
They say nothing in the world could tear us apart
Well I don't know about you
But this thing we're going through is tearing me in two
And I know you don't believe me when I say
I'll love you till the end forever and a day
And I guess we'll never know (we'll never know)
Exactly where this river is gonna flow
And I guess we'll never understand (understand)

Can't Stand Losing You
I've called you so many times today
And I guess it's all true what your girlfriends say
That you don't ever want to see me again
And your brother's gonna kill me and he's six feet ten
I guess you'd call it cowardice
But I'm not prepared to go on like this
I can't, I can't
I can't stand losing
I can't stand losing you
I see you've sent my letters back
And my LP records and they're all scratched
I can't see the point in another day
When nobody listens to a word I say
You can call it lack of confidence
But to carry on living doesn't make no sense
I can't, I can't
I can't stand losing
I guess this is our last goodbye
And you don't care so I won't cry
But you'll be sorry when I'm dead
And all this guilt will be on your head
I guess you'd call it suicide
But I'm too full to swallow my pride
I can't, I can't
I can't stand losing
I can't stand losing you

Some Things Never Change

After all this time I still miss you everday
The same world spins round
I guess some things never change
Sometimes I go out but it never feels the same
I still look for you
Baby some things never change
When I said Id love you for eternity
I just never knew how true those words would be
Just an old love song
Just a mention of your name
My heart breaks in two again
I guess some things never change
Maybe someday someone else will set me free
Until then Ill live with your loves legacy
And Ill keep holding on
Hoping youll come back someday
You can rest assured
Baby some things never change

I guess some things never change
I still love you
