Love Poem-1 Shine O Moon! Shine.
Shine O Moon! Shine brightly now
for my beloved
is coming to kindle
the fire of love.
Shine O Moon! Shine brightly now.
Unending seemed to be the nights
succumbing to death were diminishing lights
his appearance illuminates now
my temple of love.
Shine O Moon! Shine brightly now.
O moon, play hide and seek
I have him, my love to share
behind the clouds hide you moon
he takes refuge beneath my lustrous hair.
Shine O Moon! Shine brightly if you care
Sing a melody in company of the stars
and sleep with the moonshine
my lap is for him to sleep
as he is only mine.
AS HE IS ONLY MINE.
Shine O Moon! Shine brightly shine.

Distant Voices
I never thought i'd get away
cause all there is is fading fast today
maybe you sleep well in your head
bring on the night let the cold moon burn
instead
cause i'm gonna find my way to the sun
if i destroy myself
swallowing habits die real hard
and the coat she wore could not conceal
the scars
beneath the magic of her lace
are a thousand lonely faces she can't
place
cos i'm gonna find my way to the sun
if i destroy myself
i can shine on
i'm gonna find my way to the sun
when i destroy myself
i can shine on
shine
sooner or later maturbate or lose
stationary west way running from the view
in true the self destructive veins
we have found a way to keep the gifts that
maims
cause i'm gonna find my way to the sun
if i destroy myself i can move on
i'm gonna find my way to the sun
if i destroy myself i can shine on
shine
i'm gonna find my way to the sun
if i destroy myself i can shine on

Midnight Special
Well you wake up in the mornin'
When the ding-dong ring (ding 'em man, ding 'em)
Go over to the table
See the same old (damn) thing
Nothing put upon the table
And nothin' in my pan
Say anything about it
I get in trouble with the man
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine it's ever lovin' light on me
If you ever go to houston
Oh well you better walk right
You better not stagger
And you better not fight
Or the sheriff gonna 'rrest you
Lord, and carry you down
And if the jury find you guilty
You're penitentiary bound
But let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine it's ever lovin' light on me
Let the midnight special (hoo)
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine it's ever lovin' light on me
Yonder comes miss rosie (yeah) (oh yeah)
How in the world do you know? (i be low)
Well i know her by her apron (oh yeah)
And the dress she wore
Umbrella on her shoulder
Piece of paper in her hand (yeah)
She's a-gonna tell the captain
You tell him listen man
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine it's ever lovin' light on me
(me, me, me)
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Well let the midnight special
Shine it's ever lovin' light on me
Well i done my time boy (well, yeah)
Who they caught with a crime
Well the man ain't call me
He done be ridin' down the line
But let the midnight special
Shine a light on me (yeah)
Let the midnight special
Shine it's ever lovin' light on me

Shine It On
By dickey betts and warren haynes
(c) 1990 cbs records, inc.
Ive had my troubles,
I know youve had your troubles too.
Sometimes when you need a little sunshine,
It keeps rainin down on you.
But Im not gonna let it get me down,
Keep on pullin, things are gonna come around.
Shine it on,
Shine it on.
Little blue-eyed woman,
She made me feel so fine.
She got what she wanted,
Then she moved on down the line.
Yes I know about the pain,
Tears are gonna fall,
Just like rain.
Chorus:
Shine it on,
Look around you see whats goin on.
Shine it on,
Before you end up out there on your own.
Dont let some rainy day, steal your heart away,
You got to go on,
Its just the dark before the dawn,
Shine it on.
Shine it on,
Look around you see whats goin on.
Shine it on,
Before you end up out there on your own.
Dont let some rainy day, steal your heart away,
Shine it on,
Look around you see whats goin on.
Shine it on,
Before you end up out there on your own.
Shine it on, oh baby.
Shine it on, shine it on, shine it on,
Shine it on (repeat and fade).

Like A Diamond
Madmen crawl
Across the wall
Knight gets away
Kings all fall
Queens chase men
Saints all sin
And good things
All must end
But she goes on forever
She goes on forever
Yeah, she's gonna shine
Forever
Like a diamond
In the sunlight
Big full moon
Above the road
I'm a long long way
From tomorrow
Gotta light my way
Down this highway
TO get to her
'Cause she goes on forever
She goes on forever
Yeah she's gonna shine
Forever
Like a diamond
In the sunlight
Deacons steal
And Ma can't feel
If you're lonely
And behind the wheel
When the ground gives way
You have to pray
To the unknown
And hope it's real
But she goes on forever
She goes on forever
She's gonna shine forever
Like a diamond
In the sunlight

Youre My Baby Now
(barkam/adams)
Hey, girl, put away your handkerchief
Dry your eyes and get ahold of your heart
Lift your head up, dont you worry now
Brighter days are just about to start
You been scraping bottom long enough
Pushed and pulled by every all-the-way guy, yeah
But now Im here to shelter you
And love you faithfully until I die, yeah
Youre my baby now
And I wanna take care of you
Youre my baby now
And I wanna take care of you
Dont you be afraid to follow me
Take my hand and let me lead you away
Away from all those bitter memories
That youre having trouble shaking today, yeah
Just relax and let me open your eyes
To all the things you never could see
cause once youre in my arms and feel the love
I got for you youre gonna be free, yes you will
Dont you worry, baby
(dont worry, baby yeah)
Hmm, everything gonna be all right
(I know youre gonna make it, youre gonna make it right)
Dont you worry, honey, no no no

Bleed like a crazed dad

Easy come come goto go back
In the valley of the dead man walks
How they drank from the jazz
Astral kestrel, fed into the featherfall
Fed him on a pencil carving you will never get
Shine shine shine
Bleed like crazed dad
These are the craze
Seek for a leather journey never stopped to think about
Hollywood king kong domino on the side
Street light levitated down stop the blue for 5 dollar gonna keep my domino on the side
Street light, looking right looking to the parlous parlours
Party on the dead put a net through his headache
Shine shine shine

Living on a movie all the shirley/charley films on film
Come together, party footnote on the footstone

It Dont Matter To The Sun
It dont matter to the sun
If you go or if you stay
I know the sun is gonna rise
Shine down on another day
There will still be a tomorrow
Even if you choose to leave
cause it dont matter to the sun (oh baby)
It matters to me
It aint gonna stop the world
If you walk out that door
This old world will just keep on turning round (turning round)
Like it did the day before
cause see to them it makes no difference (ohh)
It just keeps on keepin time
cause it aint gonna stop the world (oh baby)
But itll be the end of mine
What can I say

Im still in love
So without you...
(guitar/piano solo)
Mmm mmm mmm, oh yeah, oh yeah
What can I say
What can I do
Im still in love
So without you
It dont matter the moon
If your not in my life
No the moon will just keep hangin round (hangin round)
Like its just another night
Find another place to shine on down
On some other lovers dreams
cause it dont matter the moon (oh baby)
But is sure do matter to me
No it dont matter to the moon (oh baby)

Somebodys Baby
(originally from the fast times at ridgemont high soundtrack)
Well, just - a look at that girl with the lights comin up in her eyes.
Shes got to be somebodys baby.
She must be somebodys baby.
All the guys on the corner stand back and let her walk on by.
Shes got to be somebodys baby.
She must be somebodys baby.
Shes got to be somebodys baby.
Shes so fine.
Shes probably somebodys only light.
Gonna shine tonight.
Yeah, shes probably somebodys baby, all right.
I heard her talkin with her friend when she thought nobody else was around.
She said shes got to be somebodys baby; she must be somebodys baby.
cause when the cars and the signs and the street lights light up the town,
Shes got to be somebodys baby;
She must be somebodys baby;
Shes got to be somebodys baby.
Shes so....
Shes gonna be somebodys only light.
Gonna shine tonight.
Yeah, shes gonna be somebodys baby tonight.
I try to shut eyes, but I cant get here outta my sight.
I know Im gonna know her, but I gotta get over my fright.
Well, Im just gonna walk up to her.

Josephina
Josephina, theres so much I want to know
Ive known you for all of mine
But not all of yours
Youre not a stranger
No, nothing could be further
I look back and I wonder
What you were like, long before
Josephina, if I asked you, would you tell me?
The fact from the fancy
And the dreams in between
Tell me a story
All about yours truly
Photographs from the past
Imagine the mystery
Didja get your head lost in a daydream?
Cinderella, waiting for her charming
Did ya break a heart, like little girls often do?
Pigtails and painted toes
All dressed up in your mothers clothes
Can you shine the light?
Ah, can you shine the light?
Oh, please can you shine some light?
Yeah, can you shine the light?
Shine the light on a shadow
Josephina, would you lay down your defenses?
So I can make sense of
Those colors fading to grey
Its not that youre hiding
Something, Id never imply
Yesteryear I may be gone
Cant say the same for today
Yeah, josephina!
Ah, josephina!
How else am I to know, that all the while
There was a mischievous look, behind that smile?
Its hard to tell, when innocence comes and goes
Im sure that there were times, life could be unkind
Without a shoulder to cry on
Can you shine the light?
Ah, can you shine the light?
Yeah, please can you shine some light?
Yeah, can you shine the light?
Yeah, can you shine the light?
Shine the light on a shadow

The Harder They Come
Well they tell me about the pie up in the sky.
Waiting for me when I die.
But between the day your born and when you die.

Trying to drag me under-ground.
And they think that they have got the battle won.

Will the sun ever shine again
The cloud took over the sky covering it with a black blanket
will the sun ever shine again
the sun ran from east to seek refuge av the west
all because the cloud over threw him
will the sun ever shine again
the stars and moon all peep in to mourn their master 'sun' who was murder by the cloud
will the sun ever shine again
who could appeals the cloud to be lenient on the sky for it cries all day, mourning it master
will the sun ever shine again
the sky cry and earth couldn't go out
will the sun ever shine again
our roads filled with water
the canals over flown paving ways into our houses
will the sun ever shine again
the sky cry, and vehicles were park'd at their owner's lodge
will the sun ever shine again
the tears from the sky has turn'd the house into lagoon
will the sun ever shine again
yeah! my clothe is wet
my stomach is empty
at the same time my throat is dry,
for the sun had stop shining
will the sun ever shine again
plant could not germinate because the sun went to bed
the land was over floaded
will the sun ever shine again
[2]
ho! could we plead you to go and come back some other time for we know we need you more as we don't need you now please make the sun shine again so it could dry our land,
for we know sun cannot exist under you
look dear cloud our bed had been carried away by your furious no were to pass the night
our legs ache because the tears from the sky took away our sit
ho! cloud get a sit for yourself to rest your long time labour
so the sun could have hope for it's lost glory again
and shine on our wet soul
will the sun ever shine again
if the sky keep throwing tears
will the sun ever shine again
if it keep raining.

The Sun Aint Gonna Shine Anymore
Loneliness, well, its the clothes you wear
Its a deep shade of blue, and its always there
The sun aint gonna shine anymore
The moon aint gonna rise in the skies
Tears are always clouding your eyes
When youre without love
Emptiness, its the place youre in
With no more to lose, and no more to win
The sun aint gonna shine anymore
The moon aint gonna rise in the skies
Tears are always clouding your eyes
When youre without love
Lonely, without you baby
Oh, I need you, I cant go on
The sun aint gonna shine anymore
The moon aint gonna rise in the skies
Tears are always clouding your eyes
When youre without love

Get Your Act Together
You say youre so tired, youre never satisfied
But I cant seem to make you understand
I see your point of view, but lifes been to good to you
Just stand up and face things like a man
You better get your act together
If you ever wanna take it on the road
You cant sit around
Or the bad times are gonna get to you
And youre never gonna see it through
I know, that things dont seem so good right now
But you gotta move along some how
Try to do the best you can
Sure nuff, thins will slowly turnaround
You wont always be so down
I know that its true
It wont always be such stormy weather
It may be a cliche but the sun is gonna shine
So you cant sit around
Or the bad times are gonna get to you
And youre never gonna see it through
It dont matter where youve been
Its where youre going to
Yeah, and it wont do you no good
Just livin in the past
You know you cant sit around
cos the bad times are gonna get to you
And youre never gonna see it through
And theyre never ever gonna go
Yeah, theyll be here to stay
Yeah, its always gonna be that way
