Only a fool permits the letter of the law to override the spirit in the heart. Do not let a piece of paper stand in the way of true love and headlines.

Paper Boy
Roy orbison
I walk down to the blue side of town
Where there's no happiness, no joy
Down at the end of a long dark street
I saw a little paper boy
Paper boy paper boy
I've got bad news for you
Paper boy paper boy
Me and my baby are through
She was my love my one and only
I feel so bad i'm oh so lonely
I'm looking for my love
I've got my own headlines for today
They've been the same since she went away
"one dark haired angel disappears
She's been missing for a million years"
Paper boy paper boy
So long goodbye
Paper boy paper boy
Thanks for listening while i cry
I feel a little better now that someone knows
But i will go on looking forever, i suppose
I'm looking for my love
Extra extra read all about it
My baby's gone and i wanna shout it
I'm looking for my love
I'm looking for my love
I'm looking for my love....

A Piece Of Paper
A diploma hanging on the wall
is really not you at all.
It's just a piece of paper.
A marriage certificate in your file
of when you two walked down the aisle
is just a piece of paper.
A birth certificate, signed and sealed
made you legal but concealed
that it's just a piece of paper.
A death certificate proves you're gone.
The truth is you've just moved on.
It was just a piece of paper.
All these papers that yellow with time
were really not worth one thin dime.
They were just pieces of paper.
Your life was never all those things.
Your life was when you took on wings
and soared with love for all.

Piece Of My Heart
Didnt I make you feel
Like you were the only one
Didnt I give you everthing
That a man possibly can
But all the love I give you
Its never enough
But Im going to show you baby
That a man can be tough
Come on come on come on come on
And take it take another little
Piece of my heart
Break it break another little
Piece of my heart
Have it have another little
Piece of my heart
You know youve got it if it makes you feel good
Youre out on the street looking good
And you know deep down in your heart it aint right
And you never never hear me
When I cry for you each night
Sometimes I tell myself I cant stand the pain
But when I hold you in my arms
I say it again
Come on come on come on come on
And take it take another little
Piece of my heart
Break it break another little
Piece of my heart
Have it have another little
Piece of my heart
You know youve got it if it makes you feel good
Sometimes I tell myself I cant stand the pain
But when I hold you in my arms I say it again
Come on come on come on come on
And take it take another little
Piece of my heart
Break it break another little
Piece of my heart
Have it have another little
Piece of my heart
You know youve got it
So take it take another little
Piece of my heart
Break it break another little
Piece of my heart
Have it have another little
Piece of my heart
Take it take another little
Piece of my heart
Break it break another little
Piece of my heart
Have it have another little
Piece of my heart

Paper And Ink
Touched the mirror
Broke the surface of the water
Saw my true self
All illusions shattered
Money's only paper only ink
We'll destroy ourselves if we can't agree
How the world turns
Who made the sun
Who owns the sea
The world we know will fall piece by piece
Sat down up close to the colored black hole
Like they'd always told me not to
Saw the one dimension polka dot pacifier
And all illusions shattered
Money's only paper only ink
We'll destroy ourselves if we can't agree
How the world turns
Who made the sun
Who owns the sea
The world we know will fall piece by piece
Bared myself wholly heart and body unadorned
Stripped down solely
To the evil and the good
Felt no shame
Naked to the world
And all illusions shattered
Money's only paper only ink
We'll destroy ourselves if we can't agree
How the world turns
Who made the sun
Who owns the sea
The world we know will fall piece by piece
Faced towards the sea
Looked to heaven up above
Felt the world revolve around me
No one could tell me otherwise
But the turbulent waters won't reflect this life
Only the sun the moon and sky
And all illusions shattered
Money's only paper only ink
We'll destroy ourselves if we can't agree
How the world turns
Who made the sun
Who owns the sea
The world we know will fall piece by piece
Money's only paper only ink

I Was A Fool (To Let You Go)
Music: Barry Manilow
Lyrics: Marty Panzer
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After I've had my last cigarette
When the night is as black as the night's gonna get
Well, I'm still wide awake cause I still can't forget
I was a fool to let you go
And after I've closed the bar with the boys
Tho I can't stand the drinks and I can't stand the noise
When I know I'll be back 'cause there's no other choice
I know I was a fool to let you go
I was a fool to think
That I could sleep a wink
In this big empty bed by myself
And I was a fool to wait
Until it was too late
To tell you just how I felt
And after I've been with somebody new
And she knows what to say
Ah but not what to do
Then I know what I've lost and I know it's so true
I know I was a fool to let you go
And after I've been with somebody new
And she knows what to say
Ah but not what to do
Then I know what I've lost and I know it's so true
When I see what it cost and what I'm goin' thru
I know I was a fool
I was a fool to let you go

Don't Wanna Be Again The Fool
Do you need someone...
To hug,
And sweep your heart away?
Do you need someone...
To love,
And...
Say true love will stay?
You know you do,
Don't you?
You know you do!
You know that's true...
For the fools.
Do you need someone...
To hold,
And be your number one?
Do you need someone...
Who's told,
More love is yet to come?
You know you do,
Don't you?
You know you do!
You know that's true...
For the fools.
You know you do.
You just know that's true.
But you,
Don't wanna play again
The fool.
You know you do.
You just know that's true.
But you,
Don't wanna be...
Again,
The fool.
Do you need someone...
To love,
And...
Say true love will stay?
You know you do.
You just know that's true.
But you,
Don't wanna be...
Again,
The fool.
You know you do!
You feel it too!
But you...
Don't wanna be again the fool!
Don't wanna be again,
The fool!
And be played against...
Your rules.

Neverland
(HogarthKellyMosleyRotheryTrewavas)
When the darkness takes me over
Face down, emptier than zero
Invisible you come to me
..quietly
Stay beside me
Whisper to me "Here I am"
And the loneliness fades
Some people think I'm somethin'
Well you gave me that, I know
But I always feel like nothing
When I'm in the dark alone
You provide the soul, the spark that drives me on
Makes me something more than flesh and bone
At times like these
Any fool can see
Any fool can see
Your love inside me
All these years
Truth In front of my eyes
While I denied
What my heart knows was right
At times like these
Any fool can see
Any fool can see
Your love inside me
I want to be someone
I want to be someone
I want to be someone
Who someone would want to be
Someone would want to be
Wendy
Darling
In the kitchen
With your dreams
Will you fly
again
Take to the sky
again
Undo the hooks
Once and for all
Banish the tic tic tic tok tok tok
Again
Will you be
Yourself for me
Cause I can take it
I can stand
Anything
When you're with me
I can stand it
I can stand
But when you're gone
I never land
In Neverland
Want to be someone someone would want to be
someone someone would want to be
someone someone would want to be
someone someone someone someone
Any fool
Any fool can see
Any fool can see
Your love
Inside me

I can hear my call
No more hesitation, mmm
This time I'm goin' for all
'Cause I know where this road leads to
And therefore I will rise
I know this dream will come true, mmm
And I will soar the sky
(Spirit, spirit)
Would you guide me? Oh

Stand by me
Come on, Come on, Come on
Set me free
I can feel the penetration
Of a strong wind movin' me, mmm
I feel can the elevation, mmm
Of an angel lifting me, mmm
'Cause I know where this road leads to
Therefore I will rise
I know this dream will come true, oh
And I will soar the sky

Now that I've found my way home
I've got to get there, get there (get there)
Though one step seems one mile long
Your bridge before my face (your bridge before my face)
I will take the leap of faith (I will take the leap of faith)
(Spirit) spirit (spirit) spirit
Would you guide me? Oh

Stand by me, oh

Set me free...

Swear Your Love
by Kenny Loggins
I got a letter from my love
It said,"Eaxactly what I'm thinkin' of
No words can say"
Well darlin' I'll find a way
You see your diamond ring
I'm here to say it doesn't mean a thing
Without your love,
'N if that's all we really got
Then take it off
Tear it off
Swear your love
Say you don't need no diamond baby
If some piece of paper's keepin'
Us together I ain't buyin' it baby
Swear your love
All you really got after it's said and done
Is what we tell each other
When there's one on one
Darlin' won't ya swear your love?
I know a lady in Spokane
She thought that happiness would find her when
She caught a man
Security second hand
She got her diamond ring
It's sad to say
That was the only thing
I guess she forgot
You gotta believe enough
To swear your love
Swear your love
Say you're with me forever baby
No legal paper,
Pressure from your friends'll ever keep us together
Swear your love
That's the only way to hold on babe
Promise me you'll be my only lady
Darlin' won't ya swear your love?
This ain't no ticket out
Is that what you think
Our love is about?
Think twice before you call
Girl, get it straight
Or don't get it at all
(SOLO)
Swear your love
Say you're with me forever baby
No piece of paper's keepin'
Us together I ain't buyin' it baby
Swear your love
Say you don't need no diamond baby
No legal paper,
Pressure from your friends'll ever keep us together
Swear your love ( 8 times )

No Hard Feelings
Some people love; love for no reason
Others love because that’s what they believe in
I love you, I thought you loved me
When our eyes locked figured that this was our (my) destiny
So what am I to do with this love that lasts an eternity?
Why whenever we disagree I always ask myself do he love me
I can never stay long periods mad at you my heart is heavy
I keep going back to all the hurtful and awful things you said to me
Even if it was true I rather you not tell me when you’re angry
I listen to your silent words
And because of that I felt like I never did anything good
I guess I’m at the end of your stride
Nothing left to do than to quietly say my goodbye
I am a stranger in the night
I am fool for thinking you will always be mine
Nowhere to go no one to talk to
All I have is my pen and paper
Always consoling me and keeping me together
I am at lost, where is my lover
I’ll keep dreaming, I am just a hopeless dreamer
(Please) hear my cries
Open your heart to me I tell no lies
I love you and I trust that you still love me
Baby please you need to know how much I am sorry
I would like things to go back the way they were or even better
I need you to forgive me please accept my apology letter

Get Yourself Another Fool
At last Ive awakened to see what youve done.
All I can do is pack up and run.
Now I know the rules. find yourself another fool.
You said that you loved me. I was yours to command.
Your kind of loving, my heart couldnt stand.
You played me for a fool. find yourself another fool.
And now, now that were through, you say you wished youd be true.
Oh, but deep down in my heart, I know our love could never grow.
And now, now that were through, you say you wished youd be true.
Oh, but deep down in my heart, I know our love will never grow.
At last Ive awakened to see what youve done.

Fool Like You
I hear you breathing though youre so far away
Can you just go where youre going to
I couldnt give a damn or two about a fool like you
Thats true
Are you just too cool no youre just perfectly cold
And what goes around still comes around
I think its all summed up and down in a fool like you
Thats true
Today is just another day
You hold your ticket into nowhere
Its up to you if you will stay
And turn your day into a nightmare
You think you know it you think you know it all
But you dont even have a clue
And conrtol is still in view for a fool like you
Thats true
Is there a reason for the way that you are
Or does it just come natuarally
To have an idiosyncrasy and be a fool like you
Thats true
Youre hearing what you want to hear
Misunderstanding all you see
An attitude in all of us
Is it really you and me
Hes hiding residing deep within the crowd
A hand out hell pull you down
Youve been found guilty committed every crime
But still they say you must go free
Looks like haunted I will be by a fool like you fool like you
Thats true
By a fool like you by a fool like you
Looks like haunted I will be by a fool like you
Thats true
By a fool like you by a fool like you
Looks like you by a fool like you
Looks like haunted I will be by a fool like you
Thats true

You had thought had gone.
Come on and get a big piece of love.
Come on and get a big piece of love.
Come on and get a big piece of love,

I can't,
Stay safe...
Knowing without you,
I'm all alone.

Awake...
Wondering,
Who's now in your home...
Playing 'Daddy'.
Come on and get a big piece of love,
My love...
You had thought had gone.
Come on and get a big piece of love.
Come on and get a big piece of love.
Come on and get a big piece of love,

Come on and get a big piece.
A bigger than a big big piece.
Is there anything for me, boo?
Do you mind if I boo hoo too?
Come on and get a big piece.

Come on and get a big piece of love,

Fool For Your Love
(diana ross/ray chew/bill wray)
What do you want, baby
One last piece of my heart
What do you need, baby
We could make a new start
Im not scared
All the nights alone
Lying there crying with the television on
Watching those scoops about love and happiness
Wonder what I ever did to deserve a fate like
I dont wanna be around
For that famous final scene
I just cant help myself
Im a fool for your love
Leave me alone, please
My heart cant take any more
You left me going crazy
It started like just like a phone
Youre the number one
Youre the only one I need
If you dont want my love
Then set me free
I dont wanna be around
For that famous final scene
I cant help myself
Im a fool for your love
Dont come closer
You know Im easy to phone
You dont love me
Any fool can see
Im telling you goodbye
Bye, bye
Leave me alone, please
My heart cant take anymore
Leave me alone, please
Let me walk out that door
Leave me alone, leave me alone, leave me alone
I dont wanna be around
For that famous final scene
I just cant help myself
Im a fool for your love
Im a fool for your love
Im a fool for your love
Leave me alone, leave me alone, leave me alone
A fool for your love
Im a fool for your love
Leave me alone, please
My heart cant take it no more
Leave me alone, leave me alone

Headlines
Do a show
Save a child
Raise a million bucks
That'll last a while
Fight at parties
Buy a horse
Lose a couple
Win that big divorce
I wanna be in the headlines
Anything to be in the headlines
Saw my chance
Made my break
Took the biggest float
In the Rose parade
Got jailed
No disgrace
A hundred million people
Saw my face
Called a conference
With the press
Announced my marriage plans
In a wedding dress
Climb a building
At six-below
On New Year's Eve
Without a stitch of clothes
I wanna be in the headlines
Anything to be in the headlines
As long as they spell my name right
I hope that they catch my best side
Popped out
From a cake
At the President's ball
What a big mistake
Fifty guns
Aimed at me
I was nearly killed
But what publicity
Nominated
Something big
Stole the hottest scene
Says the Globe And Trib
Porno movie
Comes to light
But I was starving then
So that's alright
I wanna be in the headlines
Anything to be in the headlines
As long as the spell my name right
Hope that they catch my best side
Keep my sidewalk status star bright
Feel free to walk on me tonight
Just don't spit on me.
Headlines, headlines,
Headlines, headlines,
Headlines, headlines,
Headlines.

Blank Sheet Of Paper
I'm just a blank sheet of paper
This fool's about to write you a letter
To tell you that he's sorry
For the way he did you wrong
To ask for forgiveness
For leaving you alone
He's been looking down at me seems like forever
he takes the top on and off his pen
It's like he can't decide
Just what he wants to say
If he'd just tell the truth
I'd be on my way
Chorus
But he just stares at me
And i just stare at him
He don't know where to start
To say he doesn't want it to end
And now it's one hour later (four hours later)
I am still a blank sheet of paper
Sunlight is shining through the curtains
He's almost asleep pen in hand
There's a tear in his eye
That refuses to fall
If it would land on me
That would say it all
Repeat Chorus
And he just stares at me
And i just stare at him
He don't know where to start
To say he wants it back again
And now one broken heart later
I am still a Blank sheet of paper

Piece Of My Heart
(j. ragavoy/ b. berns)
Producers for bonnie: david mackay, ronnie scott, steve wolfe
Didnt I make you feel
Like you were the only man
Didnt I give you everything
That a woman possibly can
Lord - but with all the love I give you
It aint never enough
Well, Im gonna show you baby
That a woman can be tough
So, come on, come on, come on, come on and
Break it
Break another little piece of my heart now baby
Take it
Take another little piece of my heart now honey
You can have it
Have another little piece of my heart now baby
You know youve got it
If it makes you feel good
Youre out on the street looking good
And you know, deep down in your heart
That it aint right
No...you never ever hear me when I cry at night
Though I tell myself that I cant stand my pain
But when you hold me in your arms, I say it again
So, come on, come on, come on, come on and
Break it
Break another little piece of my heart now baby
Take it
Take another little piece of my heart now honey
You can have it
Have another little piece of my heart now baby
You know youve got it
If it makes you feel good
Break it
Break another little piece of my heart now baby
Take it
Take it little piece of my heart now honey
You can have it
Have another little piece of my heart now baby
You know youve got it
If it makes you feel good
