I had always thought that once you grew up you could do anything you wanted - stay up all night or eat ice-cream straight out of the container.

That One Night
I lay dreaming at night about the way you held me that one night
That one night i felt like i meant something to someone
The night i thought you loved me
If only for a few hours
Laying thinking and smiling
Thanking myself for risking freedom just to see you
Its another day and my mind is still at that one night
We never wanted that night to end
I never wanted you to let go of me
I never wanted you to let me leave
I wanted to be in your arms forever
I stayed calm and wanted
I leave thinking about when that one night will come my way agian
I would kill for that one night
Just one more night of your love towards me
I know you dont love me
But it seemed like you did at the moment
I shut my eyes and dream of that one night

Late Night
When I woke up today
And you werent there to play
Then I wanted to be with you
When you showed me your eyes
Whispered love at the skies
Then I wanted to stay with you
Inside me I feel alone and unreal
And the way you kiss will always be
A very special thing to me...
When I lay still at night seeing
Stars high and light
Then I wanted to be with you
When the rooftops shone dark
All alone (I) saw a spark
Spark of love just to stay with you
Inside me I feel alone and unreal
And the way you kiss will always be
A very special thing to me...
If I mention your name
Turn around on a chain
Then the sky opens for you
When we grew very tall
When I saw you so small
Then I wanted to stay with you
Inside me I feel alone and unreal
And the way you kiss will always be
A very special thing to me...

The Night Of The Century
I didn't know you
And you didn't know me
But after we danced
It felt as if we known each other forever
When we danced
It felt like I could fly
We danced to the fast music
Which I enjoyed
My personal favorite was the slow music
When you were singing every word of the song to me
I felt your breath on my shoulder
My hands were around your shoulders
Your hands around my waist
We were close together
Spinning around and around
When it was time to go
I was crushed
I wanted to stay nad dance more
I wanted you to sing to me
I never wanted anything more than I want to be with you
Nobody knows this feeling
In which I have for you
Believe it or not
I don't think i can ever forget you
Last night was the most remarkable night ever
I wish it could of lasted all night!

Straight
You sleep better when youre
You eat better when youre
You sing better when youre
You need me more when youre straight
Is this the weekend?
Is that your girlfriend?
Shes green and innocent
You smoke her like shes incense
Shes smilin
Ill wait til summers over
Ill love you through october
Ill give you everything
Ill trade you anything for her
Stay straight for me
Stay straight for me
Stay straight for me
Stay straight for me

Thinking of you
I thought I could endure being without you,
However the longing your absence brought grew,
I see you where there is nothing to be seen,
But it's a haunting that I dearly value,
Contentment is that which in life I pursue,
What completes me there is nothing equal to,
Of all the pains to be endured our parting,
Is the worst that I could ever go through,
The first day parted I wished it was not true,
And on the second day the desire grew,
I long for the night to draw in in earnest,
As I find comfort in the dreams that ensue,
Have you ever felt entrapped by a virtue?
Have you ever wished for your fear to subdue?
Know that you could never be truly alone,
Know that I will always be thinking of you,
Everyday our uniting was overdue,
My fondness for your bewitching smile grew,
While on distant soils I am reminded,
Of your countenance by every serene view,
Have you ever wanted warmth when on your own?
Have you ever wanted love honest and true?
Know that you could never be truly alone,
Know that I will always be thinking of you.

Thought I'd Died And Gone To Heaven
Love is forever - as I lie awake
Beside you
I believed - there's no heaven
No hideaway - for the lonely
But I was wrong - crazy
It's gotta be strong
It's gotta be right
Only wanted to stay a while
Only wanted to play a while
Then you taught me to fly like a bird
Baby - thought I'd died and gone to heaven
Such a night I never had before
Thought I'd died and gone to heaven
Cause what I got there ain't no cure for
Ooo it's so easy
What you do to me all night angel
I never loved - I swear to God
Never needed no one

As long as you happen to put your hand in a container full of pickles, might as well dip your whole arm in the container.
Stars
Anyone who ever held you
Would tell you the way Im feeling
Anyone who ever wanted you
Would try to tell you what I feel inside
The only thing I ever wanted
Was the feeling that you aint faking
The only one you ever thought about
Wait a minute cant you see that i
I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I I feel you
I hope you comprehend
For the man who tried to hurt you
Hes explaining the way Im feeling
For all the jealousy I caused you
States the reason why Im trying to hide
As for all the things you taught me
It sends my future into clearer dimensions
Youll never know how much you hurt me
Stay a minute cant you see that i
I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I I feel you
I hope you comprehend
Too many hearts are broken
A lovers promise never came with a maybe
So many words are left unspoken
The silent voices are driving me crazy
As for all the pain you caused me
Making up could never be your intention
Youll never know how much you hurt me
Stay cant you see that i
I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I I feel you
I hope you comprehend

Never Take The Place Of Your Man
It was only last june when her old man ran away
She couldnt stop cryin, she knew he was gone to stay
10:35 on a lonely friday night
She was standin by the fire - unh - she was lookin alright
I asked her if she wanted to dance and she said
All she wanted was a good man who wanted to know if I thought I was qualified
I said baby dont waste your time
I know whats on your mind
I may be qualified for a one night stand
But I can never take the place of your man
It hurt me so bad when I saw the tears in her eyes
She was all he ever wanted and now she wanted to die
He left her with a baby and another one on the way
She couldnt stop cryin she knew he was gone to stay
She asked me if we couldnt be friends and I said
Oh honey baby thats ok you know and I know, know, know you wouldnt be satisfied
I said baby dont waste your time
And I know whats on your mind
I may be qualified for a one night stand
But I could never take the place of your man
I may be qualified for a one night stand
But I could never take the place of your man
I may be qualified for a one night stand
But I could never take the place of your man
La la la oh oh whoa
Never take the place of your man
Thats all I need girl
Is a one night, one night, one night stand
I dont wanna be like a steak in your mind
Oh girl if you need a friend Im there by your side
Sha la la la sha la la
Sha la la la sha la la

I Only Wanted
Doesnt it ever stay
Must it always fade away
Couldnt love ever be
Something tangible and real
Farewell, fairweather friend
Abandonment returns to taunt me again
I only wanted you to stay
Linger and mean the words you said
Foolishly I romanticized
Someone was saving my life
For the first time
I only wanted you to be there when i
Opened up my eyes
I was caught in your masquerade
Wish Id stayed beneath my veil
But it just seemed so easy to
Open up myself to you
Once more into the wind
The embers scatter
And the chill settles in
I only wanted you to stay
Linger and mean the words you said
Foolishly I romanticized
Someone was saving my life
For the first time
I only wanted you to be there when i
Opened up my eyes
Oh
I only wanted you to stay
Linger and mean the words you said
Foolishly I romanticized
Someone was saving my life
For the first time
I only wanted you to be
The one to get me through that night
I only wanted you
To be there when i
Opened up my eyes
Oh
Doesnt it ever stay?
I only wanted you to
Stay

Monkey money
When my son,
all blushing youth,
had a wish
I made it my adventure
to grant it.
When he wished for ice cream,
I got two scoops,
cold rounds of heaven,
so we could share the sweetness
because I like ice cream too.
When, eyes bright and innocent,
he wanted to play,
we'd explore Candyland together
and eat candy together
so that I could give him the full experience
of a world made of candy.
As he grew older,
he started wishing for money
even though he didn't know what it was,
and I convinced him
that the plastic monkeys
from the barrel were worth $10 apiece.
He always felt rich
and I got to keep my money
without being a disappointing parent
for a change.

If You Gotta Go, Go Now
Listen to me, baby,
Theres something you must see.
I want to be with you, gal,
If you want to be with me.
But if you got to go,
Its all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night.
It aint that Im questionin you.
To take part in any quiz.
Its just that I aint got no watch
An you keep askin me what time it is.
But if you got to go,
Its all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night.
I am just a poor boy, baby,
Lookin to connect.
But I certainly dont want you thinkin
That I aint got any respect.
But if you got to go,
Its all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night.
You know Id have nightmares
And a guilty conscience, too,
If I kept you from anything
That you really wanted to do.
But if you got to go,
Its all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night.
It aint that Im wantin
Anything you never gave before.
Its just that Ill be sleepin soon,
Itll be too dark for you to find the door.
But if you got to go,
Its all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night.

Stay With Me
(michael masser/gerry goffin)
Stay with me
Spend just one more day with me
Maybe you can rearrange your plans
I know theres a whole new world to found
And its to that world youre bound
Put please dont leave me standing here
Stranded on the ground
Wont you stay with me
Stay with me
Spend just one more day with me
I cant bear to see it end this way
If I could spend one day with you
It would last my whole life through
And of all the nights Ive held you close
Tonights the night that means the most
Wont you stay with me
Just stay with me
I never thought that I would meet someone so beautiful
Never thought Id see a night like this
cause if you know youre gonna loose someone so beautiful
For the rest of your life
Thats an awful lot to miss
So wont you stay with me
Stay with me
Spend just one more day with me
Maybe you can rearrange your plans
Wont you stay with me
I cant bear to see it end this way
I never thought that I would meet someone so beautiful
Never thought Id see a night like this, yeah

For the rest of your life
Thats an awful lot to miss
So, wont you stay with me

I cant bear to see it in this way
Wont you stay with me

Miss A La Cream
Waiting is worth the while
Miss A La cream, a la cream
The lady of magnificent style
The woman of many a mans dream
A natural born striker
Every man in turn likes her
The queue up in flashy little cars
It doesn’t get them really any far
Miss A La cream, a la cream
The lady of posh self-esteem
At day, she’s in the sauna wrapped in towels
At day she’s at the hairdressers draped in jewels
At night, she can be found at many a brothel
But don’t you ever ask, what is a vowel?
But don’t you ever attempt to make her to spell
Natural yellow, gold and blonde
With an exquisite scent from beyond
A La cream, a la cream
She can pander a whole football team
Up in the mountains or down by the streams
When she walks the street with her heels
Mouths open, hearts relentlessly dream
Notwithstanding her heart is stronger than steel
That’s why she is Miss A la cream, A la cream

Oh What A Night
(david jones)
Immortal music (bmi)
Lead vocal: davy jones
Oh, what a night
But now I must forget you
But my heart wont let you
Out of my life
Oh, what a day
We walked around the city
You said now isnt it a pity
That I couldnt stay
But if I could life that night again
(and again)
It would be the same
And if I had the chance
(just one chance)
Id stay another day
Oh, what a night
Your kisses were so tender
I always will remember
The promises we made
Oh, what a day
You smiled and it was magic
I thought it was tragic
I had to go away
But if I could live that night again
(and again)
It would be the same
And if I had the chance
(just one chance)
Id stay another day
Oh, what a night
Oh what a night (oh yeah)
At last were back together
Ive been wondering whether
It would feel the same
Oh what a day (oh no)
When you said you had another
I guess Ill recover
To love again someday
But if I could live that night again
(and again)
It would be the same
And if I had the chance
Id stay another (stay another) day
Id stay another day

Grew Up Fast
We grew up fast
And no one seemed to notice
We grew up fast
And we grew up alone
Mom and dad
Were never what we wanted
We grew up fast
And we grew up alone
We grew up along
Well you know who I am
So dont treat me like Im someone else
Well you know what I am
So dont treat me like Im someone else
You never act like that with no one else
We grew up fast
When lies were just a fact of life
We grew up mad
Cause we never had a home
We faced the past
And forgave the revolution
We grew up smashed
And we grew up alone
We grew up alone
Hey my brother
I got no fight with you
I just cant lie down
Hey my brother
I got no fight with you
I just cant lie down
No, I just cant ride down
I just cant ride down
Well you know who I am
So dont treat me like Im someone else
Well you know what I am
So dont act like Im something else
Well you know who I am
So dont treat me like Im someone else
You know where I am
So dont act like Im somwhere else
You never talk like that to no one else
You never scream like that for no one else
You never suck like that for no one else
