Skies The Limit
Written by christine mcvie
If Ive been acting just a little strange
And you have noticed it too
Its cos my life has been rearranged
With the presence of you
The sky is the limit now
We can hit it on the nail
And when we do
Ill think about you
How can we fail
Can you give me one reason why
Youd ever let me down
I wont believe it baby, but Ill try
The truths goin to come around
The sky is the limit now
We can hit it on the nail
And when we do
Ill think about you
How can we fail
The sky is the limit
Oh the sky is the limit
How can we fail
Sooner or later
Ill keep the promise
I made to you
Sooner or later
It will be greater
Then we ever knew
The sky is the limit now
We can hit it on the nail
And when we do
Ill think about you
The sky is the limit now
We can hit it on the nail
And when we do
Ill think about you
How can we fail
The sky is the limit
Oh the sky is the limit
How can we fail
Oh the sky is the limit
How can we fail
The sky is the limit
Oh the sky is the limit
How can we fail
The sky is the limit
Oh the sky is the limit
How can we fail
The sky is the limit
Oh the sky is the limit
How can we fail
The sky is the limit

Why Are You Waiting
What can I do Im at the door
Ive tried turning back theres no point in that now
What should I say, what should I do
Should I fix my hair oh why am I scared now
Facing the world is so hard do you know what I mean
People are so often hard and far too ready to say...hey...ohhh
Why are you waiting?
Why are you waiting?
Why are you waiting?
What if I fail (you wont fail)
Why are you waiting?
What if I fail (you wont fail, you wont fail)
Look at me stand outside the door
Like a frightened child with a nervous smile see
What should I do, what should I say
Should I speak at all
I am much too small now
Facing the world is so hard do you know what I mean
People are so often hard and far too ready to say...hey...ohhh
Why are you waiting?
Why are you waiting?
Why are you waiting?
What if I fail (you wont fail)
Why are you waiting?
What if I fail (you wont fail)
Why are you waiting?
What if I fail (you wont fail, you wont fail, you wont fail)

Till to be loved.
To love the dearest
Is an utmost pleasure.
To be loved in turn
Is still more a pleasure.
I strive for it to the last.
I shall give her my best,
Till she be my conquest.
I won’t fail her.
She can’t foil
The apple cart.

We Need Others To Value What We Do
WE NEED OTHERS TO VALUE WHAT WE DO
We need others to value what we do
We need their care
Their correction
Their praise
We need others to say ‘yes’ to us.
We need this so so much.
And yet in our fear of rejection
We dare not ask -
In our pride
We hold back
We strive to be
And work alone.
And alone we falter and fail
In endless frustration.
The poem written only for the poet
Is this a poem really?

All Living Things
The sea…a living sentient thing
As is the Earth…an organism alive
For who’s to say that oceans don’t think
And that planets don’t strive to survive
That trees and leaves have no feelings
And rocks…no emotions
That waves could’na be the heartbeat and…
The pulse of vibrant oceans
That canyons be not wrinkles
That mountains are not just features
That constellations…and galaxies
Not simply grand cosmic creatures
That lakes are not eyes
Valleys not ears
Volcanoes not simply pimples
Nor the rain…Terra’s tears
As atoms…to universes
Meteor storms…to hail
The only true difference is…
A slight matter… of scale
Only the out-sized ego of…
man can stubbornly deny
Only stifled imaginations
Sterile, dusty and dry
Only minds conditioned
to not even strive…fail
To acknowledge that all and everything
That exists…is in it’s own way, alive

Ill Never Fail You
Irving taylor / vic mizzy
Ill never fail you
Whatever may be
Ill never tail you
Depend upon me
Ill see them all through
The things youve planned.
But if they fall through
Ill understand,
And when shadows trail you
Ill bring you the sun
Ill never fail you
Theres no other one
Im yours forever
We never will part
Ill never never fail you sweetheart

Queen faliure
I am the Queen of faliure.
At every thing I do I fail.
My life is full of misery.
My hart is sad and depressed.
Why do I fail?
I wanted to be strong.
Instead I cry.
I wanted friends.
Instead I am alone.
All on my own.
Why do I fail?
Why oh why?
I want to be happy.
And care free

End Matters
We strive to end all matters at the start,
Like the arrow that finishes and exerts,
Must the final scene be of the dart?
I see wonders and forests of trees apart,
They struggle and inhabit the comforts,
We strive to end all matters at the start.
Likely outcomes reside in the cart,
Rolling into the street that reasserts,
Must the final scene be of the dart?
My living is called a sentence to depart,
Mine is the life that is of introverts,
We strive to end all matters at the start.
I catch the idiots of the hour in a flowchart,
Forgetting the tree of animals with efforts,
Must the final scene be of the dart?
I gather storms and saucers in what heart?
The real question lies in megahertz;
We strive to end all matters at the start,
Must the final scene be of the dart?

You & Me
Theres a leafless tree in asia
Under the sun theres a homeless man
Theres a forest fire in the valley
Where the story all began
What will be our last thought?
Do you think its coming soon?
Will it be a comfort
Or the pain of a burning wound?
All we are trying to say
Is we are all weve got
You and me just cannot fail
If we never, never stop
Youre an ocean full of faces
And you know that we believe
Were just a wave that drifts around you
Singing all our hopes and dreams
We look around in wonder
At the work that has been done
By the visions of our father
Touched by his loving son
All we are trying to say
Is we are all weve got
You and me just cannot fail
If we never, never stop
All we are trying to say
Is we are all weve got
You and me just cannot fail
If we never, never stop
You and me just cannot fail
If we never, ever, never, ever stop...

Feet Dont Fail Me Now
Cant you see, she dont want you around no more
Cant you see, that her hands pointing at the door
Feet dont fail me now
How could anyone stay
Anyone could see its time to go away
Time to take a powder
Open up your eyes
But it feels like my legs have been paralyzed
Feet dont fail me now
Begging please dont make a fool of me
Feet dont fail me now
Please dont keep me where I should not be
Feet dont fail me now
Stop pretending that youve gone to sleep
Feet dont fail me now
Begging please dont make a fool of me
See your things piled in the hall
Turn around, theres a new picture on the wall
Feet dont fail me now
Were the last ones to know
Anyone could see its time for us to go
Time to hit the highway
Nothing left to do
But it feels like my shoes have been crazy glued

My Troubled Friend
My troubled friend
there is no end
to trials on this earth.
Don't cry aloud
amongst the crowd.
Keep silent all your tears.
Think of goodness.
Think of peace
Never allow these thoughts to cease.
Men are cruel.
They play the fool
and fail to come alive.
And as they play
they have their way
and never do they strive
for peace.
My troubled friend
there is an end
when you have found your worth.

A Father's Fear.
The little feet that run to me,
The little hands that strive
To touch me at the heart, and find
The heart in me alive:
Oh God! if hands and feet should fail,
If Death his mist should fling
Between my heart and the touch of
The little living thing!

Strive!
There is no strength for such as us,
no weakness, no will to live or die
just the impressions of willingness
the choice to get up, or let lie
Strive! Strive! Lost Soul-Dark Soul
In the shadows of this fitful giant,
climb the mountain to the filling of your role
leave not the world, be non-compliant.
