I wish I'd known early what I had to learn late.

If you learn late, you pass it on to people so they can learn early. It's a step process.

Too Late

Too late we listen,
too late we learn.
Too many years
when the fires did burn.
It all seemed cozy.
It all seemed warm.
We let time slip away
and then did form
a comfortable way to move along,
never asking, 'Is anythng wrong? '

Too late we listen,
too late we learn
to show compassion and show concern.
There were no signs to recognize.
There were no tears formed in the eyes.
We did not ask what we wanted to know.
We contented ourselves with when we go
we won't have to confront these things today.
They'll all be gone when we pass away.

Too late we listen,
too late we learn
and then we yearn
for another chance
to help discern
what was wrong?

You learn many things too early, and you understand them too late.

Late Cat

Late to train
Late to bus
Late to class
And late to party;
She is everywhere a late cat!

Late to eat
Late to sleep
Late to fate
And late to luck;
She is for everything a late cat!

Late to clock
Late to block
Late to dash
Against the truck
And, lo! Even late to death;
She is always a late cat!

Learn

when broken
learn
when happy
learn
when bored
learn
when you float and does not know what to do
learn just the same
when filled with idealism
learn
when fed with what you cannot swallow
learn again
when the times get rough and you want to kill yourself
learn, learn, learn
you still have many things to learn
faces of life
bodies of life
learn, learn, learn everything
do not surrender

for in truth, you do not do what you only want
you will also do what you are told to do
no questions asked
or you will be left out
or you will be not a part of the picture
this life
learn, learn, learn, always learn
do not surrender
live, learn, live, learn
you will soon do all that others will tell you
learn, learn and learn again

and sooner you will have learned everything
and then do what you want to do
with firm conviction
you know now what is right
and that is what you will do,

now without even being told
you have become yourself

but still learn, learn, and learn again
because

you might be wrong,
try thinking some more, learn
relearn, learn, learn, learn, forevermore....

Conjuring

I am too early;
you have not met me yet.

I am isolated from my future
where you live.
I am too early;
you have not yet
learned to love me.

You don't know my smile;
I am not yet
even born
in your eyes;

but I still want you to love me
Is that silly?
Perhaps.

But, maybe it can be;

after all this is my dream.

I lie in bed
dreaming you now
bringing you here
into my bed
you don't have to exist
to be here
I can hear
you sigh.

You don't have to exist
except here
now
in my bed
that is enough..

I am not too early;

all I have to do
is turn out the lights
and get my position
right;

and I can conjure you up.
.
Too early?
No,
too late.

Don't want you
to have to
wait.

Early In The Morning

Early in the morning and I cant get right
Had a little date with my baby last night
Now its early in the morning (early in the morning)
Well its early in the morning (early in the morning)
Now its early in the morning
And I aint got nothing but the blues
Went to all the places where we used to go
Went to your house but you dont live there no more
Now its early in the morning (early in the morning)
Well its early in the morning (early in the morning)
Early in the morning
And I aint got nothing but the blues
Went to your friends house but she was out
Knock on your fathers door and he began to shout get out there boy
Early in the morning (early in the morning)
Early in the morning (early in the morning)
Early in the morning
And I aint got nothing but the blues
Went to doogie chain to get something to eat
Waiter looked at me and said you sure look beat
Now its early in the morning (early in the morning)
Early in the morning (early in the morning)
Well its early in the morning
And I aint got nothing but the blues
Well its early in the morning
And I aint got nothing but the blues
Well its early in the morning
And I aint got nothing but the blues

Its Too Late

Its too late now for you to say your sorry
Its too late now for you to make amends
Youre gonna pay for all the lies you told me
Well dont apologize cause its too late
Its too late
Much too late
You said those words
You said them much too late
Its too late
Much too late
You said those words
You said them much too late
Its too late now for you to sympathize, dear
The wheel of time is grinding gainst your dreams
I really wouldnt want to cause no pain now
You said those words, you said them much too late
Its too late
Much too late
You said those words
You said them much too late

I learn

I learn when I teach others
I learn when I listen
I learn when I read
I learn from children

I learn from animals
I learn from nature
I learn how to breathe
I learn how to live
I learn how to love
I learn how to be a human being

I'm always learning ...

New year resolutions

We all do them every year
to stop drinking too much beer
lose some weight go to the Gym
take up cycling go for a swim.
Be more caring be more kind
learn a new skill open the mind
get to know the neighbour next door
do voluntary work and help the poor.
Stop smoking and eating crap food
be more patient, tolerant, less rude,
learn to listen instead of just talk
and take the dog out for a daily walk.
Try to get to work early instead of late
smarten yourself up you look like a state
get your teeth whitened they look really bad
stop dancing at parties you look silly and sad.
And stop wasting money be thrifty and save
take up a daring hobby climb or go down a cave
go on that trip before it's too late
and pluck up the courage and ask her out for a date.
But alas resolutions don't last very long
our willpowers weak and not very strong
our resolve quickly breaks and begins to sag
and in a week your having a drink and a crafty fag!

I know about having days off. They can be helpful sometimes, especially late in the year. It's just key to go out there and establish early, especially in this park where they can put up some crooked numbers early.

I took some classes in sign language when I was in my early teens because I was told that I would be completely deaf very early. But I never really wanted to learn.

You still got chances of turning around

Sometimes tearin down
The treasures that it brings
Ever strong
Youll make it through
The secret lies in knowing
That its up to you
Say it with me now

From A Booming Gleam To A Dusted Bust

When one sells their soul...
Why do they become upset,
With regret...
That it can not be purchased back?

And...
Were they paying attention,
When someone told them that?

Apparently not!

Were their eyes just affixed,
On bling and things...
That would keep their addictions,
Rusting away without a benefit to this!

Some lesssons are too late to learn.
And when they are...
Who cares of it?

And a faith in that which had been trusted,
Went from a booming gleam to a dusted bust.
With no one around them,
To discuss mistrust.

Some lesssons are too late to learn.
And when they are...
Who is there to care?

It's Never Late

It’s never late to dream,
to find in life a gleam,
to break a thread of insult
and hope for a good result.

It’s never late to forgive,
in happiness to believe,
to kill the seed of sadness
for better life and gladness.

It’s never late to return,
a new lesson to learn,
to fall in love again
and dance under the rain.

It’s never late to live,
a new aim to achieve,
a new life to begin
and always try to win.

It’s only late at night
when with a sleep you can’t fight.

Too Late

See the stop-light turn-in red,
Dont you listen to what its said.
All the things you try to hide,
They keep you runnin hard inside.
Oh, you got to leave this town before its...
Too late, too late, too late, too late, too late,
Too late to make the change.
Oo, yes, my friend, youre fadin fast, if you stay here you wont last.
Before your time has run astray, youve got to try to get away.
Oh, you got to leave this place before its...
Too late, too late, too late, too late, too late,
Too late to make the change.
Too late, too late to make the change
Too late to make the change
Yes, its time to make the change, yes, its time to rearrange,
So, my friend, I join the fight for the things you know are right.
Oh, you got to leave this town before its...
Too late, too late, too late, too late, too late,
Too late to make the change.
Too late, too late to make the change
Too late, too late, to make the change
Too late to make the change
Too late, before its too late.

Be Concerned With

We have no time to watch
Each pulse is to be lived with an attempt to catch
Somebody may find it enterprising and as heaven
Rest all may be living under fear and not behaving even

Lot more to learn and lot more to loose
It is to be picked up and rightfully choose
What are we going to do with this precious moment?
Later on no time will be left to resent

God has given us beautiful earth to live
Full trust and dedicate to her to believe
That she is was and will always be for us
It has to be matter of great concern with trust

So rise early and face the day bravely
See the sun shine before it is late in early
Rest you all may follow generously
Keep pace with time and carry out continuously

Not to worry about what will be next?
It will certainly be in favor and best
It may prove sometime as an acid test
But believe in self and be assured of about the rest

Oh Well, Ill Never Learn

Looking up at the sign
It said: please keep away
And so in I ran
You see ...
Ill never learn
Oh, Ill never learn
Ill never learn
Chapter one again
Here I go again
I found a fountain of youth
And I fell in
How could I ever win ?
Ill never learn
Ill never learn
Ill never learn
Why should I mind ?
Why should I care ?
Ill never learn
Ill never learn

Abubakar

Abubakar!
You have to learn more and to fly like a bird;
Migrating from one place to another,
For the life around you is all that you know.

Put your money where your mouth is and
Put your mind where your love is;
And like an adventure taken with lessons.

As early as the sun and as late as the moon,
Try to put your soul to where your heart is;
And like a kiss by a rose on a grave.

The governments are about to hold your legs but,
Try to fly away to your lover to take a cover;
For your true lover needs you in times like this.
