Jose Ramos Horta

We do have some assistance from the World Bank but not from the IMF. We are not borrowing yet, but we are considering, in the future, borrowing from the Kuwait Fund to support our infrastructure development.

Living In Your Heart

Listen.
Separation.
Come in between.
Ginseng apparation.
Fly on your wing.
Lovers are a lighthouse shining in the dark.
Steal away inside you.
Live in your heart.
Ooh I want your love.
Oh I want your love.
Automatic motion, walking alone.
Daytime seperation.
Im never home.
Drive another highway in another car.
Im borrowing your window, live in your heart.
Ooh I want your love.
Oh I want your love.
I want your love.
Oh I want your love.
Forever.
Ooh I want your love.
Oh I want your love.
Drive another highway in another car.
Im borrowing your window, live in your heart.
Live in your heart.
Live in your heart.
Ah.

No Originality Or Freshness In It

So you changed some things around and called this new?
Yours?
To have others believe it too!
And you know this isn't true.
Don't you?

Have you ever gone in someone's home?
And made suggestions
As to how they can arrange their furniture
To give the interior of their home a different presence?
It is still their furniture!
They recognize it.
You recognize it.
It belongs to them.
No matter how it has been arranged.

Same thing with stolen concepts.
Or a poet 'borrowing' ideas.
No matter how it has been arranged,
The creating brain knows from where it came.

There is no such thing as 'borrowing' someone else's ideas.
To make them new.

Plagiarists make attempts at this.
And some are so ignorant...
They lift whole passages as if they can not be recognized.
That's how empty their minds and lives are!

AND then there are those who will boldly ASK...
If it is okay to put their name on 'your' efforts!
And then to others brag of their tasks.

But not for too long can they do this.
Repetition bores,
Even those who do not recognize what is presented...
Has no originality or freshness in it to begin with!

Too Marvelous For Words

Youre just too marvelous
Too marvelous for words
Like glorious, glamorous
And that old standby amorous
Its all too wonderful
Ill never find the words
That say enough, tell enough
I mean they just arent swell enough
Youre much too much, and just too very very
To ever be, in websters dictionary
And so, Im borrowing a love song from the birds
To tell you that youre marvelous
Too marvelous for words

Youre much too much, and just too very very
To ever be, in websters dictionary
And so, Im borrowing a love song from the birds
To tell you that youre marvelous
Too marvelous for words
