I wanted to be on TV, which is of course where I was seeing people pretend to do all of these things, so TV has a special place in my heart.

Special
I been trying for so long
To get you where I stand
Feel like I been climbing all my life
Everybody told me
I'd never ever get this far
I know I can make it if I try
There's the special things that come your way
?I'll be praying? no matter what they say
Special things that somehow come to you
(come to you, you too, to you, do to, be do, you)
Special things come to you
There's no sense in trying to fight it
When I want something so bad
No, it's not as easy as it seems
Simple things are the hardest
Of the things we do for love
And I won't give up cause I'm not just what it means
The special things you dream about
And the special things you're all about
Special things that somehow come to you
And it's the simple things to just believe
And the special things that you want to see
Special things somehow come to you
(come to you, doo doo doo, to you, doo doo doo)
Special things (doo, doo ahh, you doo)
Do do doo, on you, do do doo, to you
Do doo, ahh, do do doo, too
There's the special things that come your way
?I'll be praying? no matter what they say
Special things that somehow come to you
The special things you dream about
And the special things you're all about
Special things that somehow come to you
There's the special things that come your way
?I'll be praying? no matter what they say
Special things that somehow come to you
And it's the simple things to just believe
And the special things that you want to see
Special things somehow come to you

So They Say
(malik pendelton)
When I think about all the love and fun that we used to have
Theres no doubt that I do miss your touch
And all the good times and the bad
But i, I realize that we were not meant to be
So Ill set you free cause what they say doesnt apply to you and me
Some good things did come to an end
If youre ever down and out of need
I will be right here always, you have a friend in me
So call on me, even though were apart
Even though were apart
Youll always have a special place in my heart
Youll always have a special place in my heart
So they say
If its right, itll come back your way
I cannot lie, not this time
Youve got yours and Ill get mine
People used to say one day you were gonna away
And break my heart in two
But its all in the game of love
Sometimes you win or lose
Do what you gotta do
Cant say I regret that things that I got and didnt get
I knew all alone
Inside I saw all the signs yet and still i
Went along for the ride
Some good things do come to an end
If youre ever down and out of need
I will be right here, always you have a friend in me
So call on me, even though were apart
Even though were apart
Youll always have a special place in my heart
Youll always have a special place in my heart
So they say
If its right, itll come back your way
I cannot lie, not this time
Youve got yours and Ill get mine
So they say
If its right, itll come back your way
I cannot lie, not this time
Youve got yours and Ill get mine
They say, so they say, so they say
If its right, itll come back your way
I cannot lie, not this time
Youve got yours and Ill get mine

My Secret Place
Words and music by joni mitchell
Im going to take you to
My special place
Its a place that you
Like no one else I know
Might appreciate
I dont go there with anyone--but
Youre a special case
For my special place
For my secret place
People talk to tell you something
Or to take up space
Guess Im only talking
To be talking to
Your pretty face
I dont talk much to anyone--but
Youre a special case
For my special place
My secret place
I was born and raised
In new york city
Im just getting used to colorado--
Oh street bravado
Carry me
Why did you bring me to
A place so wild and pretty?
Are there pigeons in this park--
Muggers after dark--
In these golden trees--
In the secret place?
Im going to take you to
My special place
Its a place no amount of hurt and anger
Can deface
I put things back together there
It all falls right in place--
In my special space
My special place
Once I saw a film
In new york city
That was shot in colorado--
Girl meets desperado
In the trembling mountain trees
Out of all of the girls that you see
In bleachers and cafe windows
Sitting--flirting with someone
Looking to have some fun
Why did you pick me?
For the secret place

Hey Grayson
(Dedicated to Grayson Wolpert who changed our lives forever)
Hey Grayson did you see view?
When I walked into that room
So many people
So many tears
So many laughs
So many smiles
And so many hearts that went out to you
Hey Grayson did you hear what they said?
When I sat in that chair listening to speeches
So many funny stories
So many laughs
So many hilarious moments
So many deep conversations
So many encouraging words
So many special memories
And so many people that talked about the amazing you
Hey Grayson did you hear the words in which you were described?
So many called you passionate
So many called you loving
So many called you compassionate
So many called you unique
So many called you funny
So many called you beautiful
So many called you caring
So many called you inspirational
So many called you outgoing
And so many people that were grateful for you
Hey Grayson did you see those pictures?
So many of your horse and you
So many of your family and you
So many of your sister and you
So many of your mother and you
So many of your father and you
So many of special people and you
And so many people were deeply in love with you
Hey Grayson did you feel how much you were loved?
So many people would change for you
So many people would kill for you
So many people would die for you
So many people would do anything for you
Hey Grayson did you notice how many lives you affected?
So many people wanted to serve others because of you
So many people wanted to help others because of you
So many people wanted to be nice to others because of you
So many people wanted to encourage others because of you
So many people wanted to love others because of you
So many people wanted to change because of you
And so many people did change because of you
Hey Grayson did you see that checklist?
So many people were learning to love
So many people were learning to be loved
So many people were learning to grow
And so many people learned so much about life because of you
Hey Grayson did you take in all the change?
So many people were affected
So many people were transformed
So many people were wiser
So many people were better friends
So many people were better at all relationships
So many people were full of more knowledge
And so many people became new people because of you
Hey Grayson are you happy up there?
Now that you’ve seen all the love
Now that you’re surrounded by love
Now that you can watch the lives of the ones you love
Now that you are holding hands with angels
Now that you’re in a place of no more suffering, or pain, or tears
Now that you’re in a place full of beauty, wonder, and all things that are good
Now that you are embracing God
You’re in heaven where you are so high, the word up doesn’t even exist
Grayson you care about everyone
Grayson you love everyone
So Grayson have I told you the most important information of all?
Grayson, I love you
Grayson, everyone loves you
And that is how it will stay
For all eternity and longer

Some Things You Can't Take Back
Well she was lookin out the window
And I was starin at the door
The dog was sleepin on the sofa
This place has never been this quiet before
You cant pretend it never happened
You cant pretend its still the same
You cant say you were only jokin
You cant keep thinkin things can go on this way
CHORUS
Some things you cant take back
Though you wish you could
Some things you cant take back
Though the glass has been broke
And the milk has been spilled
And your loves on the line
Some things you cant take back
When someone says theres no tomorrow
When the writings on the wall
After all have cried and spoken
And your poor heart has taken such a fall
REPEAT CHORUS
If I could reset the clock and go back in time
Id erase the thoughts that went through my mind
You know I never would leave
And Id still have you with me
You cant pretend it never happened
You cant pretend its still the same
You cant say you were only jokin
You cant keep thinkin things can go on this way
REPEAT CHORUS
Some things you cant take back
Cause in the cold light of day the pieces all blew away
And now Im livin a lie
Some things you cant take back

To a much loved poet
You know how people who are
really serious – that’s, not those
who pretend to be serious, or
those who are paid to be serious –
pretend to be not so serious?
And you know how people who are
really lonely – that’s not those
who want sympathy, oh no, or
those who want to enjoy being lonely –
pretend to be not so lonely?
So she never quite believed,
for obvious reasons,
just how much she was loved
by all her readers:
perhaps and I only say perhaps
she might have feared to lose
that painful treasure
that we wanted to love away and
which made us love her
so much and even more.

I Want To
When youre down and need a friend
Baby, i'm with you until the end
Cause deep down, you're always been the one
I cant pretend things are ok
It just feels so right
When youre in my arms
When i kiss your soft lips
All the pain just goes away
When you told me you loved me
Oh please God help me now
I need her to need me
I know its right in the end
Can you do that for me
Shes the one for me
I just dont know how to prove to her
That i love her and we belong
In eachothers arms dancing
To the song that will
Forever be the song
That reminds me of such a beautiful girl
Baby, youre my perfect angel
You bring light to my day
I wanna hold you forever if thats ok
I wanna dance with you when the sun
Goes down until the sun comes up
Ive always had a special place for you
In my heart, but now
You are my special place, in your arms
I wanna be the one
That makes you laugh
I wanna be the one
You dream about at night
I wanna be the one
you come to when you cry
I'll be your savior, no lie
Just give me one chance
To prove that you and i
Where made for eachother
My head hurts, it thinks
About you to much
My heart hurts it loves
For you to much
I just wish you felt the same
You are always there for me
And i always want to be there for you
And hope you love me too
You mean everything to me

Meet Me At No Special Place
(and Ill be there at no particular time)
(pyle/robinson/terker)
Baby, we two cant get along,
Im never right, youre never wrong.
So meet me at no special place,
And Ill be there at no particular time.
Baby, it just aint common sense
Mixin up love with arguments.
So meet me at no special place,
And Ill be there at no particular time.
Im all fed up on stormy weather,
Im going where its june.
Heres hopin I see you never
cause if I do, that will be too soon.
Now that Ive put my heart on ice,
Missing you will seem paradise.
So meet me at no special place,
And Ill be there at no particular time.
~interlude~
Youd better bring along your glasses
In case Im hard to find,
Youll wish you could see before you
As clearly as you can see behind.
You can turn back in retropect
Of the times you stuck out your neck.
So meet me at no special place,
And Ill be there at no particular time.
All we do is make up
Then quarrel all over again,
But this is it ~ the breakup
From now on, you knew me when...
So meet me at no special place,
And Ill be there at no particular time!

Overture -- Cotton Avenue
A red sun came rolling down a grey sky
And the frogs and dogs and night birds then
Started up singing sweet country lullaby
You see that patch of city lights-
Somewhere in there's Cotton Avenue-
That's where I'm going to take myself tonight
With a spit shine on my dancing shoes
If you got a place like that to go
You just have to go there
If you got no place special
Well then, you just go no place special
I guess it's just the summer in the young blood
Ripe and juicy in the young blood
Teasing to go down to ...
Cotton Avenue
To hear the shiny shiny music
See all the shiny people dancing to it
Anytime you go to ...
Cotton Avenue
If you got a place like that to go
You know you got to go there
If you got no place special
Well then, you just go no place special
You see that summer storm brewing in the southern sky
By the time it hits here I'll be dancing high and dry
To rhythm and blues
On Cotton Avenue
Poor boys'll be hanging around outside in the street
They got all the latest words
They're dancing to the latest beat
While they're hustling and sizing you
On Cotton Avenue
If you got a place like that to go
You just have to go there
If you've got no place special
Well my dear
You just so no place ... special

An Emptiness Collected (Things)
Things,
People pray for.
Things,
People have.
Things,
All around the people.
And things they have make them sad.
Things,
They ask of God to give.
Things,
They get don't please.
And when they realize it's not things they need...
That touch that is desired and wanted,
Has come to leave...
Them!
With their things!
And a generous offering,
Felt...
Of an emptiness collected!

There is no sense following me
i am going to a place
i do not really know what and where it is
i have fears and so i talk to the grass
to pretend that i have someone to lean upon
some people mention about a resting place
there
but i cannot really imagine what rest is all about
i may have so much of this and that
here
and i cannot really relate well
what is that
somewhere
i like to say that i like it here but someone tells
that this is not the place meant to be
all fingers point there
and all thoughts think that it must be there
if i sit a little longer the eyes of my father stare at me
he says if i do that i will be his lifetime failure
those long dead give me dreams to walk and take the long journey
back home where they are preoccupied with waiting
i like it here my heart speaks trying to dominate this conversation
the mouth wants to inser what it has long wanted to say
and then you arrive and wait under a tree
you say you will follow me that you will always be nearer to me
i rise from the grass and then my feet take the faster pace
this time

Taken from the o.s.t. falling from grace and starring john mellencamp and mariel hemingway and john prine. the song was written by john mellencamp and sung by the buzzin cousi
Ot; (john prine, john mellencamp, dwight yoakam, ):
Now, right now, look at the place Im in
When I think about things that I could have done
Its impossible for me to pretend
Chorus
But I see it now as the lights grow dim
And the world starts to close its eyes
I just wanted to say goodnight, sweet suzanne
I hear the music playing, but I no longer understand
Around the corner, down the street
Its got to better than where I am
Repeat chorus
I just wanted to say goodnight
Just wanted to see if everything was all right
Just wanted to say goodnight, sweet suzanne
Time goes by, oh so quietly
Hazy days and memories
And in the end there was only me
Wouldnt have been, I ask sometimes
But I see myself inside this rhyme
Enjoyed what I had back then
Would I do it again?
Well I see it now, as the light grows dim
I just wanted to say goodnight, sweet suzanne
I just wanted to say goodnight
I just wanted to seee if everythings all right
Just wanted to say goodnight, sweet suzanne

Just Pretend
(words & music by flett - fletcher)
Just pretend, Im holding you
And whispering things soft and low
And think of me, how its gonna be,
Just pretend I didnt go
When I walked away, I heard you say
If you need me, you know what to do
I knew it then, Id be back again
Just pretend Im right there with you
And Ill come flying to you, oh yes
All the crying is true
Oh, I will hold you and love you again
But until then, well just pretend
Oh, its funny but I cant recall the things
We said or why youre crying
But now I know it was wrong to go
I belong here by your side

Ooo I think it might be true
Special special what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Special special what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Get away from me
Im gonna hurt somebody
Get away from me

No, I dont really want to hurt nobody
But sometimes I just gotta hurt somebody

And people are adventurous
And people are mysterious
And people are theyre suspicious
Of somebody who special

More Than Wanted
I have wandered far and wide
For something real something to die for
But I have found you and you do not see
All that is me, all that is true
And I am more than you will see
And I am more than you will need
And I am more than you will see
More than wanted
And as you float the flimsy surface
You should know life lies beneath it
And dont pretend you feel what I feel
For you live illusion and im real
And I am more than you will see
And I am more than you will need
And I am more than you will see
More than wanted
And I am more than you will see
And I am more than you will need
And I am more than you will see
More than wanted
And I know, I know
You like the way you feel when I play
I know, I know
You don't really hear what I say
And I know, I know
You are waiting for something to rain
I know, I know
You wish you could be more than you say
And I am more than you will see
And I am more than you will need
And I am more than you will see
More than wanted
And I am more than you will see
And I am more than you will need
And I am more than you will see
More than wanted
More than you'll love
More than you'll hate
More than you'll have
More than wanted
More than you'll need
More than you'll dream
More than you'll hold
More than wanted
More than you'll crave
More than you'll cherish
More than you'll have

And I Finally Realize
The other day
I came to the conclusion
And it's not an illusion
You are the only man
That I ever loved
Years ago many years ago
We were both young
Neither of us
Really knew a thing about love
It took for me to be
With others to see
How much you meant to me
To realize that none of them
Can hold a candle to you
Or do the things that you do
Even though we have both moved on
The love that I have for you still lives on
In my heart you will always
Hold a special place
Your name has a special space
Even if we never see
One other again
Every memory will always
Live in my heart and mind
Forever and always until the end of time

Going Nowhere Somehow
Take a look at where youre going
Do you know where you come from?
Seems like youve spent your life just
Searching, in the length of just one song
But you know youre going nowhere
Like so many of your age
This has gone on far too long now
To be dismissed as another phase
Well you can turn the clock back
Pretend that youre still young and
Unaware. but everyone that you lack
Weighs upon your mind, when shes not there
I dont want to break your heart,
I dont want to let you down
Its just that I always thought
Life would be more than just
Going nowhere somehow.
Now your friends are disappearing
Theyre getting scarcer day by day
Youve only got yourself to blame for
That, you always wanted things that way
Cos its easier being lonely
Than being let down again and again
When youre standing on edge of
Things, it means you never have to pretend.
Well you can turn the clock back
Pretend that youre still young and
Unaware. but everyone that you lack
Weighs upon your mind,
When shes not there
I dont want to break your heart
I dont want to let you down
Its just that I always thought
Life would be more than just
Going nowhere somehow.
