Lionel Richie told me forget about the critics. But if you come back with hit after hit, you don't have to worry about anything.

LIONEL RICHIE
She was all that i could ask for,
I could see it in her eyes,
and her smile told me that i was on her mind
DANIEL BEDINGFIELD
And you should have seen the way she looked atme across the room,
i could see her thinkin man that boy is fine!
CHORUS (BOTH)
Do Ya,
know shes tryin to fool ya,
i know what shes doin to ya,
she loves me more than you,
ya ya know she wants me
Do Ya really think id lose her to ya,
but you dont get that do ya,
you know shes not in to ya,

LIONEL
So what makes you think a girl like her could fall in love with you,
when a guy like me has everything she needs,

Well i dont believe you understand the power of my game,
you just gotta know that girl is in to me, whoah
CHORUS
DANIEL
I dont care what you say im talkin' bout my girl, bout my girl,

CHORUS
LIONEL
She wants me,
DANIEL

People, as critical as it looks, we're OK. We are in control, whether we feel it or not.

Taking time to sit back and watch and think about what you've seen is important. Traveling did a great deal to me. I found that when I travel and just sit in the corner and watch, a million ideas come to me.

In life you must be able to discern between who and what is genuine and artificial. I always try to give people the benefit of the doubt, but I realize that you can't please everybody all of the time and that sometimes you have to just go for what you know.

I find the greatest songs in the world come out of pain, and I don't like it! Here's what it does: It strips away all of your facade. It makes you so honest. It's cleansing.

The music business was not safe, but it was FUN. It was like falling in love with a woman you know is bad for you, but you love every minute with her, anyway.

Malevolent
Maybe I went too far this time I just go crazy when she says no
Angel turns away pulls her dress back down, slowly washes her face
Takes the bus to her job downtown
She said Im ok dont worry about me
Now she thinks for herself, hey what happened to me?
I told him that I thought it was over told him that I wanted to leave
He used to touch me so nice when we first met
I never dreamed he would hit me I never dreamed he would hold me down
She said, dont worry about me I wont worry about you
I dont want to be friends she said Im ok
Just leave me alone
She said dont worry about me I wont worry about you
She said Im ok dont worry about me
I dont want to be friends
Just leave me alone
Dont worry about me

Exactly when people are in turmoil is the time that the entertainment business has always been at its best. Because people don't want to be reminded every day that they are under siege, or that they're not having a great time of life.

Dont Worry Baby
Well its been building up inside of me
For oh I dont know how long
I dont know why
But I keep thinking
Somethings bound to go wrong
But she looks in my eyes
And makes me realize
And she says dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Everything will turn out alright
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
I guess I shouldve kept my mouth shut
When I started to brag about my car
But I cant back down now
I pushed the other guys too far
She makes me come alive
And makes me wanna drive
When she says dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Everything will turn out alright
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
She told me baby, when you race today
Just take along my love with you
And if you know how much I loved you
Baby nothing could go wrong with you
Oh what she does to me
When she makes love to me
And she says dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Everything will turn out alright
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby
Dont worry baby

Never Forget
I'll never forget
the way you touched me
you forced your hands
across my spine
I'll never forget
the way you told me
the blame would always be mine
I'll never forget
the way your hands felt
too big...
too nasty...
way too strong
I'll never forget
the way you promised
what you did
was never wrong
I'll never forget
those sleepless nights
I'd try not to fall asleep
cuz the moment
I opened my eyes
I wondered what you were doing to me
I'll never forget
the lies you made
the threats so I wouldn't tell
the nights everyone was asleep
& I was in the mist of hell
I'll never forget
the force you had
forcing me to touch you back
the child hood
you robbed from me
& I can never have it back
I'll never forget
the fear I had
every time you were near me
I'll never forget
those Fxckn prayers
but God could never hear me
I'll never forget
everything I lost
you destroyed the kid in me
I'll never forget
just can't forget
exactly what daddy did to me

Wildlife
Mommy told me she has everything I want
Mommy told me that I should not worry bout nothing else
Mommy told me that I cant do what I want
Mommy told me
But shes only thinking about herself
Cant think about nothing else
Im thinking about myself
Time to leave and its just as well
cause I cant help thinking theres something else
Wildlife
So I told he that I must have something more than she offered
And she should not worry about my health
Im a big boy, not her little boy no more
Im a big boy and I must learn how to protect myself
Hold my own when they give me hell
She can worry about herself
Tiny eagles must leave their nest
Wild horses withstand the test
Old lovers become estranged
Little boys who cant help but change
Could be nothing but who can tell?

Stranger In This Town
Stranger in this Town
I have the guitar pic for “Stranger in this Town”,
by Richie Sambora who is a cowboy not a clown.
I got it from Rich who hung around
Richie in a New Jersey town.
Anyways, buy Richie’s Cd, on amzon,
Buy or CD baby play it all night long,
and also do remember this song—
'Runaway' which is my favorite,
that is what made Bon Jovi famous.

And if you knew how much I loved you baby
Nothing could go wrong with you
Oh what she does to me

Everything will turn out all right.

You've Got Lots Of Company
Don't worry about it.
Forget it.
By the time you awaken,
With a dawning that gets it...
Few will care to be sharing in,
Your wide eyed enthusiasm.
Or...
The Sunrising on your insignificance.
You allowed with such dedicated procrastination.
Don't worry about it.
Forget it.
You'll have more time than you need,
To discuss your findings with the others....
Who have also slept through the dispensing of clues.
Now that you have experience in remorse and regret,
You might give a helping hand to the others...
In need of your services.
Given with a typical familiarity.
Don't worry about it.
Forget it.
You've got lots of company.

Penny lover
(lionel richie, brenda harvey-richie)
The first time I saw you
Oh, you looked so fine
And I had a feeling
One day youd be mine
Honey you came along and captured my heart
Now my love is somewhere lost in your kiss
When Im all alone its you that I miss
Girl a love like yours is hard to resist
Oh, oh, ooh, ooh, oh
Penny lover, my loves on fire
Penny lover, youre my one desire
Tell me baby could this be true
That I could need someone, like I need you
Nights warm and tender
Lying next to you
Girl I surrender
Oh, what more can I do
Ive spent all of my life in search of your love
Now theres one more thing Id like to say
Dont you ever take your sweet love away
Girl Ill do anything, just please stay
Oh, oh
(bridge)
I dont understand it, oh whats come over me
But Im not gonna worry, no not anymore
cause when a mans in love, hes only got one story
Thats why my love is somewhere lost in your kiss
When Im lost and alone its you that I miss
With a love like yours, its hard to resist
Ooh, ooh, oh

Penny lover, dont you walk on by (dont you walk on by)

Penny lover, dont you walk on by (dont you walk on by)

You had the look in your eye, you had the look in your eye, yeah, yeah
Ooh pretty baby

I just want to reach out and hold ya, I want to reach out and say ooh, ooh
Dont make me cry

All The Critics Love U In New York
U can dance if U want 2
All the critics love U in New York
U don't have 2 keep the beat
They'll still think it's neat in New York
U can wear what U want 2
It doesn't matter in New York
U could cut off all your hair
I don't think they'd care in New York
All the critics love U in New York
Why U can play what U want 2
All the critics love U in New York
They won't say that U're naive
If U play what U believe in New York
Purple love-amour is all U're in it 4
But don't show it
The reason that U're cool
Is cuz U're from the old school and they know it
All the critics love U in New York
U can dance if U want 2
All the critics love U in New York
U can dance if U want 2
All the critics love U in New York
All the critics love U

Gene & Richie's Guitar Pics
Back when I was dating Rich
he gave me one of Kiss's guitar pics.
Gene Simons handed it to him-
-in the 1978 recording session.
"I Was Made For Loving You Baby"
the song they were recording at the time
Gene was playing the bass and singing just fine.
Now if I google the price of this guitar pic
It would be the price of ten times 9
-but I'm not selling mine.
I will play my pink guitar with it someday
By the way let me segue-
into the next poem on this page.
which is:
Richie Sambora's Guitar Pic
Pic is signed especially by him.
The guitar was made for-
"Stranger in this Town"
by Richie Sambora who is a Cowboy not a clown.
I got it from Rich who hung around
Richie in one of New Jersey's towns.
Anyways, buy Richie's CD on amzon.com
Buy.com or CD Baby so you can play it all night long-
-and also do remember this song—
"Runaway" which is my teenage favorite-
this is the song that made Bon Jovi become famous.

Again and again and again, baby.
