Taking Away The Gloss

Losing my fancified way with words tonight
All in an effort to say

You are ok....well more than ok

Sometimes I just want to be plain

Let you know I still think kind thoughts of you

I could go....get mushy....but then the plainness suffers

So that's it....

Who Needs Love Like That

Who needs love like that
Theres something going on
Something not quite right
Theres something strange
Happening to me
Theres someone at the door
Hear voices in my head
It seems things arent the way
They ought to be
Who needs love like that
Who needs love like that
It seemed so clear before
I held my point of view
I kept my conversation
Never changed
Now its all gone wrong
Words are kind of hard
Nothing else around me
Looks the same
Who needs love like that
Who needs love like that
Love can turn you upside-down
And leave you cold
Its plain to see
Youre losing all control
(losing all control)
Id like to understand
Like to find out why
I cant remember all
The lines that you said
But then I see your face
And nothing really counts
Dont tell me now
This feeling will stay
Who needs love like that
Who needs love like that
Love can turn you upside-down
And leave you cold
Its plain to see
Youre losing all control
(losing all control)
Who needs love like that
Who needs love like that
Love can turn you upside-down
And leave you cold
Its plain to see
Youre losing all control
(losing all control)

If I Could Have Her Tonight

All of a sudden she was on my mind
I wasnt ready for her kind
And she was taking her time.
What if she came to me
Would she be kind?
And if she stayed with me
Do you think that shed like to do anything
I would, or would she leave me?
Lately Ive found myself losing my mind
Knowing how badly I need her
Its something hard to find.
What if she came to me
Would she be kind?
And if she stayed with me
Do you think that shed like to do anything
I would, or would she leave me?
If I could have her tonight
Does she want to go?
Look at those eyes
Does she want it?
If I could have her tonight
If I could have her tonight
If I could have her tonight.

Mushy Peas

Minty green and mean,
Mushy pea clean.
Add to the plate,
Of your best mate.
Mushy peas and chips,
Raised to the lips.
Believe me when I say,
A sensation so intense,
Will leave you, in suspense.
Mushy peas
Minty green, yet supreme.

Baby Im Losing You

Evry time we kiss I feel that somethings missing inside
Evry little glow for me has simply died
What has happened to the love
Happened to the love , the love we knew
Baby Im losing you (losing you), baby Im losing you
Even in my sleep I feel the heartache creep in my dream
All the love you had for me is gone it seems
Oh what have you done to me
Made it plain to see that we are through
Baby Im losing you (losing you),baby Im losing you
I hate to say goodbye to you
But darling what am I to do
Just a toy to play , when you are through , you throw away
Not me
If you dont need me now Ill get along somehow in my pain
Wish little boy, go find another toy for your games
And whats happening to me , Ill get by you see
Now we are through
Baby Im losing you (losing you), baby Im losing you
Baby Im losing you (losing you , baby Im losing you

Please Dont Rock Me Tonight

I was ready when the big day came
My shoes were good and polished
And you know how bad I wished
I had somebody special to blame
But you know I never care to lay
A blame on for my hairdo
You know it isnt easy to do
When the dj isnt humming
A part of me suffers too
Baby, please dont rock me tonight
Please dont rock me tonight
Please dont rock me tonight
Im not in the mood
I didnt mean to make the trendy guy mad
But the feeling Im immersed in now
Can only turn a good party bad
Somehow, somehow
You know it isnt easy to do
When the dj isnt humming
A part of me suffers too
Baby, please dont rock me tonight
Please dont rock me tonight
Please dont rock me tonight
Im not in the mood
Im not in the mood
And you know it isnt easy to do
When the dj isnt humming
A part of me suffers too
Baby, please dont rock me tonight
Please dont rock me tonight
Please dont rock me tonight
Im not in the mood
Im not in the mood
Please dont rock me tonight
Im not in the mood
Please dont rock me tonight
Im not in the mood

Words Sometimes Take On A Own Meaning

Words sometimes take on a own meaning
and sometimes they are sharp and painful
as if there is much more to words

as if a kind of secret knowledge hides in them
that are sometimes something moving.
Words sometimes take on a own meaning

but somehow words can at times miss things
and are sometimes dependent on feelings
as if there is much more to words

when through it all love brings a kind of bonding
and so you and I are attractive to each other.
Words sometimes take on a own meaning

and daily a bond develops between us,
while you become more considerable to me,
as if there is much more to words

you constantly live in my thoughts,
while love becomes real through words.
Words sometimes take on a own meaning
as if there is much more to words…

Fruits Of Your Words

Everything in this world has an end

Even the sugar

Even the pain

Will find an end

Soon or late,

Nothing lasts

Forever

Even the pain

So be nice to others and you will gain

Be aware of the words that comes out of your thoughts

A word can heal another may hurt

So try to be kind with your words

May you can heai some thoughts

Once they come out of your lips

Never returns so escape the falts

Your words are the mirror of your thoughts

And your works are the fruits of your soul's

So keep the kindness inside the soul

And speak the kind words

Passengers we all are in this world

Try to keep the good job up

If you can't heal

Try to not hurt

Your words explain your thoughts

Take your time before you talk

Don't forget that a word can change the world

So keep the good work up

Try to plant a flower

Everywhere you go

Soon the world becomes a colorful garden

The good we do is eternal

Even when we are gone.

Dream about me

You’ll be dreaming about me tonight
You’ll be lost in my nightmare
My life
You’ll be screaming my name out tonight
You’ll be lost in my terrors
My strife.

And I know you want to love me
And I know you really care
But I’m moving away
Losing my grip
I’m calling your name
In a voice that’s not dead
You’re holding my hand
And I’m pulling you down
You’re blind
You’re losing your way.

You’ll be dreaming about me tonight
You’ll be lost in my nightmare
My life
You’ll be screaming my name out tonight
You’ll be lost in my terrors
My strife.

And you know I want to let you go
You know I want to breathe
But I’m fading too quickly
Losing control
I’m calling in vain
When all else is lost
You’re trying to help me
I’m trying to die
But you’re too blind
Can’t find my way.

You’ll be dreaming about me tonight
You’ll be lost in your memories
This strife
You’ll be screaming my name out tonight
You’ll be lost in the horrors
This life.

I Don't Owe You Anything

Bought on stolen wine
a nod was the first step
you know very well
what was coming next
did I really walk all this way
just to hear you say
"oh I don't want to go out tonight"
but you will
for you must
I don't owe you anything
but you owe me something
repay me now
you should never go to them
let them come to you
just like I do
you should not go to them
let them come to you
just like I do
Too freely on your lips
words prematurely said
oh but I know what will make you smile tonight
Life is never kind
life is never kind
oh but I know what will make you smile tonight

Tonight Is For Dreamers

Written by russ ballard, 1983
Found on your move.
Here I am, there you are
Who would believe we could come this far
Were beneath this magic moon
The ocean plays its own sweet tune
The summer breeze it whispers low
It tells us something we both know
Tonight is for dreamers
Tonight someone up there has seen us
How we feel for each other
There could be no other
So he sent these words from above
Tonight is for falling in love
Oo, ah
(oo, la, la ... ) tonight theres magic in the air
Look around, its everywhere
Hear the sand birds bill and coo
Actin like they know it too
Hear the wind pass through the trees
Like its tellin everyone it sees
Tonight is for dreamers
Tonight someone up there has seen us
How we feel for each other (ah)
There could be no other
So he sent these words from above
Tonight is for falling in love
There cant have ever been such a night
I dont want it to end
With you in my arms girl I feel so high
Hell, I dont ever want to descend
Tonight is for dreamers
Tonight someone up there has seen us
How we feel for each other (ah)
There could be no other
So he sent these words from above
(I love you)
Tonight is for dreamers
Tonight someone up there has seen us
And I cant hold you enough (oo)
Tonight is for dreamers
Tonight someone up there has seen us
He sent these words from above
Tonight is for falling in love

Keep On Rockin' In The Free World

All of a sudden she was on my mindI wasn't ready for her kindAnd she was taking her time.
What if she came to meWould she be kind?And if she stayed with meDo you think that she'd like to do anythingI would, or would she leave me?
Lately I've found myself losing my mindKnowing how badly I need herIt's something hard to find.
What if she came to meWould she be kind?And if she stayed with meDo you think that she'd like to do anythingI would, or would she leave me?
If I could have her tonightDoes she want to go?Look at those eyesDoes she want it?If I could have her tonight

Losing My Mind

(sondheim)
----------
The sun comes up - I think about you
The coffee cup - I think about you
I want you so, its like Im losing my mind
The morning ends - I think about you
I talk to friends and think about you
And do they know its like Im losing my mind?
All afternoon doing every little chore
The thought of you stays bright
Sometimes I stand in the middle of the floor
Not going left - not going right
I dim the lights and think about you
Spend sleepless nights to think about you
You said you loved me, or were you just being kind?
Or am I losing
My mind?
All afternoon doing every little chore
The thought of you stays bright
Sometimes I stand in the middle of the floor
Not going left - not going right
I dim the lights and think about you
Spend sleepless nights to think about you
You said you loved me, or were you just being kind?
Or am I losing my mind?
Or am I losing
Losing my mind?
You said you loved me, or were you just being kind?
Or am I losing my mind?
Were you just being kind?
Or am I losing my mind?
Losing my mind?
Losing my mind?

When I fear i'm losing you

When I fear i'm losing you
~
When I fear I'm losing you
the look in your eye
the warmth of your smile
eases my worries
brings joy to my heart
you take away my fears
let me know I'm not alone
and there I find in you
all the love I seek
the answers I long to hear
I listen to your words
taking my heart in hand
keeping me safe
letting me know I'm loved
then to your kiss
so soft, gentle, kind
when I fear I'm losing you
you always remind me
your a part of my life

Fear

what am i most afraid of?
losing my health?
losing my job?
losing my family?

losing my virility?
losing my self-image?
losing my dignity?
losing my sanity?

losing my life?
or ending up alone
in the darkness
without reason or form
or direction.

what am i most afraid of?
and why?

The Writer

From where comes that burning spark
That lights a lantern in the dark,
And from its shadowed prison frees
The story, as the mind it sees.

The thoughts released from darkness then
To form their words before the pen;
These words that come from deep within
Upon the page their freedom win.

And where was just an empty plain
A line is writ and writ again
Of maidens fair and heroes bold,
Until the story all is told.

And there the words - before his eyes
The tale upon the pages lies.
Now in the wider world it lives;
To thoughts, the words, the writer gives.

My place of dreams is not your place

My dreams are of these kinds
Inside the portals of my sleep
It is not for you to live here
Everything is so flimsy
Ephemeral and
Gossamer-like

So disappear, go away where you
May feel alive
Where you are
Living a life concrete as a stone
A landmark of iron
And steel and sounding cobblestones

My thoughts are see-throughs
That you cannot touch
With your fingers
They go through like the air that
You want to grasp and hold
Because in truth my words are fire
And flames
These are the thoughts of the world
When no man was yet created
When no man was yet alive
It is not your kind of thoughts
Your kind of dreams
These words I have been weaving
Inside my heart and mind
They will surely burn you

The One Who Lasts

God is the one who lasts forever,
His kingdom is designed and everlasting.
The effort of a design is only twice,
Yet his effort is never like slumber.
The day is of night, and the nights speak,
Forming new words for us to cheat.
The effort of this design is not stupid,
It is greater for the men who walk
And they continuously talk and converse,
Opening the chapter full of divine words,
Kissing their pages, killing the enemy
And their verse is not of women who dance
According to music.

2. Frying Tonight

Fish chip and mushy pea suppers
Newspaper vinegar drips
A shower of dark brown malt liquid
Helps salt crystals stick to your chips

The smell is a stunning reminder
Of many an outing since gone
When fish chip and mushy pea suppers
Were quickly devoured every one

Tonight And Forever

(words and music by Joe Jackson)
You know you're gonna have to face up to the facts
You're just another face in a big crowd
You know we gotta try hard to relax
We can laugh - but not too loud
It's never like you see in a magazine
And you don't even know what you mean to me
And I don't understand this feeling
But I wanna be with you tonight
I wanna be with you tonight
I wanna be with you tonight
Tonight and forever
You drive me crazy and you say that you'll never change
And I could never do what you want to
Don't you find the whole thing a little strange
I don't even know if I like you
It's never like you see on a movie screen
But there's something that you do to me
And I'm not sure that I believe it
But I wanna be with you tonight
I wanna be with you tonight
I wanna be with you tonight
Tonight and forever
I wanna be with you tonight
I wanna be with you tonight
I wanna be with you tonight
Tonight and forever
Tonight and forever
Tonight and forever

Wind Words

WHILST THE WIND BLOWS

THOUGHT-LOSING WORDS BLEW ALONG

REFLECTING ON THEIR OWN MONOLOGUES

KNOWING MORE THAN THEY SAY

WOULD STAY SILENT

IF WORDS UNDERSTAND

WHAT THEIR CONTENTS IS

BUT WHO KNOWS WHAT WORDS KNOW

WOULD THEY SHARE

WHAT WORDS UNDERSTAND

WHISPERING THEIR KNOWLEDGE

THOUGHT-LOSING AND SILENT

TO THE WIND

OH, WIND - WHAT WOULD HAPPEN

WHEN YOU KNOW

WHAT WORDS UNDERSTAND

ALL THEIR MEANINGS

SPOKEN INTO YOU

AND BEEN HEARD

READY FOR A NEW VOICE

PUTTING THOUGHTS SOFTLY

BETWEEN YOUR LETTERS

OH, LOVELY WIND

WOULD YOU CARRY YOUR WISDOM

ABOUT SPOKEN WORDS CONFIDENTIAL

TO THE WAITING ONES

AND GIVE BACK ALL YOUR KNOWLEDGE

TO SENDERS IN RETURN

WHAT WOULD THE WORLD KNOW

WHEN WINDS SHARE THEIR WISDOM
