One must look for one thing only, to find many.

Do You Feel It Too?
Im like a toy balloon
And someone cruel has cut the string
Im drifting out of sight
My heads too light to find a thing
Oh baby, life is like a cartoon movie
Being with you makes it groovy
Everything you do is new to me
And do you feel it too?
Do you find another joy in every little thing you do?
Oh do you feel it too, do you find the only thing
That matters now is me and you?
I cant believe my ears
You know I hear such crazy sounds
Each time I talk to you
And walk with you Im off the ground
Oh baby, love is great, you just cant top it
Got the ball we mustnt drop it
Girl there aint a thing can stop it now
And do you feel it too?
Do you find another joy in every little thing you do?
Oh do you feel it too, do you find the only thing
That matters now is me and you?
Tell me baby
Oh baby, life is like a cartoon movie
Being with you makes it groovy
Everything you do is new to me
And do you feel it too?
Do you find another joy in every little thing you do?
Oh do you feel it too, do you find the only thing
That matters now is me and you?

There Is Such A Thing
There is such a thing as bravery.
That would be me.
But still I quake in my boots.
Acting cool.
There is such a thing as honesty
But you have to have bravery
To wield it
There is such a thing as
Knowledge of Self
But you have to brandish honesty
To learn it
There is such a thing as peace
But you have to Know your Self
To find it
There is such a thing as Happiness
But you have to find Peace
To embrace it
There is such a thing as Fear
But if you’ve found your bravery
You can stare it down
Quaking in your boots

Cant Get Away
I miss laying on the concrete floors
I miss the way it was before
No one even knew me
Your eyes look right through me
And Im taking off your clothes
And you bloom like a rose
Cant get away from you
I cant get away from you
Oh oh
Where the ocean meets the land
Is like the sliding of your hair
It prickles up my skin
I can feel the changing weather
Im alone out on that coast
It sends memories of your ghost
Cant get away from you
I cant get away from you
I cant get away from you
I cant get away from you
Oh oh oh
One thing that turns me off
One thing that trips me up
One thing...
One thing youll never know
One thing I cannot show
One thing Im never going
I go and walk alone
I found it on my own
I
I cant find release and
..
Dont know when I can go home
Through the airport corridors
See the magazines in stores
If I see that face once more
You know I cant ignore it
And I recognize that pose
When you bloom like a rose
Cant get away from you
I cant get away from you
I cant get away from you
I cant get away from you
And with the government... another month away
Messed up places where we always stay
And its funny that we always pick these spots
Even with the have and the have-nots
Sleeping on cots
Wishin that I had some tater tots
And theres postcards written that I never send
The memories gone and wont come again
My the souls that find no peace
Still I look to you to find release, find release, find release

Verb: That's What's Happening
I get my thing in action
To be, to see, to feel, to live
And i put my heart in action
To run, to go, to get, to give
'cause that's where i find satisfaction
To search, to find, to have, to hold
When i use my imagination
I think, i plot, i plan, i dream
Turning in towards creation
Well i make, i write, i dance, i sing
'cause i get my thing in action
Yeah i get my thing in action
Go!
When i'm feeling really active
Well i run, i ride, i swim, i fly!
Other times when life is easy
Oh i rest, i sleep, i sit, i lie
I can take a noun and bend it
Make it a verb and really send it!
'cause i get my thing in action
And i don't know my own power
I can question; like what is it?
I can order; like go get it!
When i need i really need it
When i see i got to have it
'cause i put my thing in action
Yeah i put my thing in action
Yeah i get my thing in action
And i don't even know my power
No!

Sunshine
I hold you in my hands
A little animal
And only some dumb idiot
Would let you go
But if I'm one thing
Then that's the one thing
I should know
Can anybody find their home
Out of everyone can anybody find their home
I hold you in cupped hands
And shield you from a storm
Where only some dumb idiot
Would let you go
But if I'm one thing
Then that's the one thing
I should know
Can anybody find their home
Out of everyone can anybody find their home
Lost in the sun can anybody find their home
Come on, come on, come on, can anybody find their home
Oh, can anybody find their home
Out of everyone can anybody find their home
Lost in the sun can anybody find their home
Come on, come on, come on, can anybody find their home
Ooo, and on and on and on on on on...

Flying Without Wings
Everybody's looking for that something
One thing that makes it all complete
You find it in the strangest places
Places you never knew it could be
Some find it in the face of their children
Some find it in their lover's eyes
Who can deny the joy it brings
When you find that special thing
You're flying without wings
Some find it sharing every morning
Some in their solitary lives
You find it in the words of others
A simple line can make you laugh or cry
You find it in the deepest friendship
The kind you cherish all you life
And when you know how much that means
When you find that special thing
You're flying without wings
So impossible as it may seem
You've got to fight for every dream
'Cause who's to know
Which one you let go
Would have made you complete
Well for me it's waking up beside you
To watch the sunrise on your face
To know that I can say I love you
In any given time or place
It's little things that only I know
Those are the things that make you mine
And it's like flying without wings
'Cause you're my special thing
I'm flying without wings
And you're the place my life begins
And you'll be where it ends
I'm flying without wings
And that's the joy you bring
I'm flying without wings

Grand Theft Autumn
Where is your boy tonight? I hope he is a gentleman
Maybe he won't find out what I know
You were the last good thing about this part of town
When I wake up
I'm willing to take my chances on the hope i forget that you hate him more than you notice I wrote this for you.
You need him. I could be him
I could be an accident but I'm still trying.
That's more than I can say for him.
Where is your boy tonight? I hope he is a gentleman.
Maybe he won't find out what I know
You were the last good thing about this part of town.
Someday I'll appreciate in value
Get off my ass and call you
But for the meantime I'll sport my brand new fashion
of waking up with my pants off at 4:00 in the afternoon.
You need him, I could be him
I could be an accicent but I'm still trying.
That's more than I can say for him.
Where is your boy tonight? I hope he is a gentleman.
Maybe he won't find out what I know
You were the last good thing about this part of town
Where is your boy tonight? I hope he is a gentleman
Maybe he won't find out what I know, you were the last good thing about this part of time
(Repeat)
Maybe he won't find out what I know, you were the last good thing about this part of town

Cant Find My Way
...to try to do the right thing...always the right thing.
Ive been doing some thinking, here on my own
Its been on my mind
This debt I owe to you
I have to repay in kind
But I cant find my way
Tired and weary, I follow the path
That leads to your door
But it occurred to me, all that I have
Is already yours
But I cant find my way
Oh, just to sit a while
Oh, just to sit and watch you smile
But I cant find my way
Keep the faith you say
To keep the faith I pray
Be strong you say
Just follow the light
Wheels keep turning but the close I get
The farther I seem
Peace will only come
Finding the peace within
But I cant find my way

Corndog
i was all alone on a saturday night
and the funny thing is, we didn't even have a fight
i stayed up all night cryin'
and i slept all day, and missed the game
inside i think i'm dyin'
i just can't figure out how she slipped away
i was out all night monday in dallas
and the strangest thing is, i can't remember a thing
i was drunk and drinkin'
and i woke up in my best friend's car
my friends say i've gone crazy
i still need to find out how she slipped away
i've no idea what i did
she just told me,
"have someone check your head"
let me ask you, do you think that i was wrong?
trying too hard? maybe i came on too strong
tryin' to find
tryin' to find
tryin' to find a reason not to leave your side
tryin' to find
tryin' to find an answer, before i lose my mind
i was at a club real late last tuesday
and the weirdest thing is, i can't remember her name
i stayed up all night
tryin' to make her face look just like yours
and she ended up cryin'
i still need to find out why you slipped away
i've no idea what i did
she just told me,
"have someone check your head"
let me ask you, do you think that i was wrong, yeah
trying too hard? maybe i came on too strong
tryin' to find
tryin' to find
tryin' to find a reason not to leave your side
tryin' to find
tryin' to find an answer, before i lose my mind
i'm trying to find
i'm trying to find a reason not to leave your side
i'm trying to find
i'm trying to find an answer before i lose my mind

Nightwatch
In the night, when a mist of sleep surrounds me
You come to me and hold me tight, winding your body all around me
And everywhere you touch I feel, that my love for you is much too real
Oh, its the same damn thing, wanting you in my dreams
Its the same damn thing, wanting you in my dreams
Sleepwalkin - I know every move you make, and every word I say
Keep it comin, comin - comin on stronger, this time Im going all the way
Is this moment just a fantasy, or a vision of what will be
Oh, its the same damn thing, wanting you in my dreams
Every night the same thing, wanting you in my dreams
(dreams fade away)
I better find you in my days, or Im losin you to the nights
Its the same thing - every night
Its the same thing - oh, youre so right
Its the same thing - wanting you
(instrumental break)
And tonight, evenings shadows are sure to find me
On my nightwatch, waiting for the warmth of you beside me
And every second that youre here I feel, this dream is real
And its the same damn thing, its the same thing
Its the same damn thing, wanting you in my dreams, dreams

Look Of Love
When your world is full of strange arrangements
And gravity won't pull you through
You know you're missing out on something
Well that something depends on you
All I'm saying, it takes a lot to love you
All I'm doing, you know it's true
All I mean now, there's one thing
Yes one thing that turns this grey sky to blue
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
When your girl has left you out on the pavement (Goodbye)
Then your dreams fall apart at the seams
Your reason for living's your reason for leaving
Don't ask me what it means
Who's got the look? I don't know the answer to that question
Where's the look? If I knew I would tell you
What's the look? Look for your information
Yes there's one thing, the one thing that still holds true (What's that?)
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
If you judge a book by the cover
Then you'd judge the look by the lover
I hope you'll soon recover
Me I go from one extreme to another
And though my friends just might ask me
They say "Martin maybe one day you'll find true love"
I say "Maybe, there must be a solution
To the one thing, the one thing, we can't find"
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The Look of love

I wanted to feel something
To be something To see something
I wanted to find one thing that was mine
And leave this behind
But I can't find my way
To get far away and bury these days
Fantasy once reality
Becomes such a parody
If I could find one thing that was mine
I'd leave this behind
But I can't find my way
To get far away and bury these days
If shining or if shaking
It's reality faking
If I could find
One thing that was mine
I'd leave this behind
But I can't find my way
To get far away and bury these days

Anywhere You Run To
(david roberts)
Who will be the one you run to
Whenever its dark and cold outside
And where will you go
When you need a place to hide
Baby, did you know that Id loved you still
But I wont relax until
Youre back in my arms
Cant you see that my love is real
Darling, anywhere you run to
I will be right behind you
And you know Ill find you
Anywhere you run to
I will be right behind you
cause I must remind you
I would sail a boat across the sea
I would fly a plane to wherever you may be
Think you should know
That my love can only grow
But if its the last thing that Ill ever do
I swear that Ill make it back to you
Before you leave
Theres one thing that you must believe
Darling, anywhere you run to
I will be right behind you
And you know Ill find you
Anywhere you run to
I will be right behind you
cause I must remind you
I would sail a boat across the sea
I would fly a plane to wherever you may be
Think you should know
That my love can only grow
But if its the last thing that Ill ever do
I swear that Ill make it back to you
Before you leave
Theres one thing that you must believe
Darling, anywhere you run to
I will be right behind you
And you know Ill find you
Anywhere you run to
I will be right behind you
cause I must remind you
Anywhere you run to
I will be right behind you
And you know Ill find you
Anywhere you run to
I will be right behind you
cause I must remind you
Anywhere you run to

Lay Down Stay Down
I dont care if my ladys gone
As long as you give me just what I want.
Ive been losin my direction,
Got to find a new connection.
You have wasted the love I tasted,
Now Im really gettin hungry more and more.
Been a long time, had a bad sign.
Tell me what am I fighting for?
Let me know you feel it,
You know I really need it.
Keep on pushin for more,
Lay down, stay down.
I got something to find,
Theres one thing I really need.
Im gonna tell you right now,
Lay down, stay down.
Lookin for trouble, I guess thats right.
When I was young I was taught to fight.
Its been long gone since I had known,
Now Im headin for some more.
Let me know you feel it,
You know I really need it.
Keep on pushin for more,
Lay down, stay down.
I got something to find,
Theres one thing I really need.
Im gonna tell you right now,
Lay down, stay down.
Let me know you feel it,
You know I really need it.
Keep on pushin for more,
Lay down, stay down.

Theres one thing I really need.
Im gonna tell you right now,

It's In Every One Of Us
It's in every one of us to be wise
Find your heart
And open up both your eyes
We can all know every thing
Without ever knowing why
It's in every one of us by and by
It's in every one of us
Find your heart
And open up both your eyes
We can all know every thing
Without ever knowing why
It's in every one of us by and by
It's in every one of us
I just remembered
It's like I've been sleeping for years
I'm not awake as I can be
But my seeing's better
I can see through the tears
I've been realizing that
I bought this ticket
And watching only half of the show
But there's scenery and lights
And a cast of thousands
Who all know what I know
And it's good that it's so
It's in every one of us to be wise
Find your heart
And open up both your eyes
We can all know every thing
Without ever knowing why
It's in every one of us by and by
It's in every one of us by and by

Sweet Li'l Thing
A feeling of understanding
Is very rare
For someone like me it's hard
To find somebody to care
She's got a way about her
Changes everything
She's got a way about her
She's my sweet li'l thing
Sweet li'l thing
Making love with her indie rock
Playing on the stereo
Holding hands going down the road
When she drives me home
She's got a magic about her
Makes me wanna sing
She's got a magic about her
She's my sweet li'l thing
Sweet li'l thing
Spending days laying in her bed
My nose against hers
Then we went for a drive
Didn't know where we were
Man, I never felt so alive
Nobody gets the girl
But baby, I do
Nobody gets me, either
She sees through
She's got a glow around her
Shines on everything
She's got a glow around her
She's my sweet li'l thing
Sweet li'l thing
She's my sweet li'l thing...

Way Of Life
You told me about yourself,
How you once lived with someone else
The way of life that you had tried
The way they hurt you deep inside
Thats the only thing about it
I cant find anyone to doubt it
Thats the only thing about it
I cant find anyone to doubt it
Who do you think youre talking to?
When I look at you I know youre lying
All you say and do
Seems to fall apart and leave you crying
But I thought I couldve seen you here today
But you leave me standing each and every way
You told me a pack of lies
That I cant even reason with
Failure of your moral code
The kind of things that I cant give
Thats the only thing about it
I cant find anyone to doubt it
Thats the only thing about it
I cant find anyone to doubt it
Who do you think youre talking to?
When I look at you I know youre lying
All you say and do
Seems to fall apart and leave you crying
Who do you think youre talking to?
When I look at you I know youre lying
All you say and do
Seems to fall apart and leave you crying
