When we grew apart
You say we grew apart
but I can't not say...
'babe, you threw ya heart'
where did it go?
I know,
it was when you told your white lies
it was when you stood in the white snow.
It was when you grew into a woman.
It was when I saw you smile
babe we grew apart
but for me it was only for a while.

How Could You
All I can do
Is sit alone
In my room
Thinking about you
How could it be
That you are not here with me
When I gave you the best of me
I face each day
Without a smile
And life is so unfair
I feel like I wanna die
Cause you didn't give me
Give me a last goodbye
I've waited weeks for your call
I've waited here by the phone
But when the silence grew long
I knew that something was wrong
Right then I knew it babe
How could you do it babe
How could you tear my poor heart in two
How could you do it babe
Do it

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

Little White Rose
Little white rose that I loved, I loved,
Roisin ban, Roisin ban!
Fair my bud as the morning's dawn.
I kissed my beautiful flower to bloom,
My heart grew glad for its rich perfume—
Little white rose that I loved!
Little white rose that I loved grew red,
Roisin rua, Roisin rua!
Passionate tears I wept for you.
Love is more sweet than the world's fame—
I dream you back in my heart the same,
Little white rose that I loved!
Little white rose that I loved grew black,
Roisin duv, Roisin duv!
So I knew not the heart of you.
Lost in the world's alluring fire,
I cry in the night for my heart's desire,
Little white rose that I loved!

Lyric four bulls
Woman walked in forest alone
Met man
Man aroused appetite for her
Man ran and knocked his head on tree
Tail grew out
Hairy jaw grew in mouth
Hind legs grew
Man metamorphosed because was
Lion cannibal
Tried to attack man
Woman asked cannibal
‘’where’re your four
red and white bulls’’
‘’Do you know them’’
‘’Yes, you sing their
Oldest lyric’’
Cannibal laughed
In hoarse voice
Sang,
‘’One red and white spotted bull is sold
One red and white bull spotted is stolen
One red and white spotted bull is swallowed
One red and white spotted bull is scattered
On earth, scattered on earth, on earth, on earth……………….., cannibal sang tune of ‘’scattered on earth’’ happily for long and until
He napped and woman disappeared.

Dreams In The Cradle
Sweet little babe asleep in the night
with a smile upon your face.
Oh to be able to see what you dream
and to capture just a trace
'Twould create a smile upon my lips
and ease my adult lines.
For a short little time my little one
your dreams would mix with mine.
And I could escape the years I've spent
with dreams that don't bring peace.
I could dream like a babe again
and see my lines dscrease.
But I cannot join in the dreams you have.
They are meant for only you.
So dream little babe of happiness
before they're gone for you grew.

No One Questioned the Reek
When behavior they 'then' expressed,
Was not addressed...
But to some questionable?
Those of responsibility could have stood up,
To the plate.
No one did this.
But many bit down to chew!
And...
Instead,
An appreciation for that was shown.
With a bowing to lower eyes and heads.
Mixed signals were sent.
And deceit and devilment...
Were given carte blanche signals,
Not to slow down with caution...
But to move like blinded bulls,
Charging through halls...
Where precious crystal and china were used.
And no one confused a 'no' with a 'go'!
In fact...
Honors were given.
And some medals bestowed.
Some folks were given carte blanche signals.
For more of this to be exposed.
And it showed.
And they did...go!
Taking 'everything' with them,
To an humongous cellpool!
A deepened hole...
Where rooms were added.
And pretensions glowed!
With a renovation to extend the existing stench.
Guests were invited and asked to adorn masks.
No one questioned the reek.
It was as if an acceptance grew.
No one questioned the reek.
It was as if an acceptance grew.
No one questioned the reek.
It was as if an acceptance grew.
No one questioned the reek.
It was as if an acceptance grew.
And it did!
No one hid.
Deceit was done,
And everyone told...
Their bigger 'fibs'.
But...
No one questioned the reek.
It was as if an acceptance grew.
No one questioned the reek.
It was as if an acceptance grew.
No one questioned the reek.
It was as if an acceptance grew.
And it did!
No one hid.
Deceit was done,
And everyone told...
Their bigger 'fibs'.
And...
No one questioned the reek.
It was as if an acceptance grew.
No one questioned the reek.
It was as if an acceptance grew.
No one questioned the reek.
It was as if an acceptance grew.
No one questioned.
No one questioned.
No one questioned the reek.

Of Woman's Love.
Of all the loves the heart can hold
The love of woman's first;
It was this one love that we had
Or e'er the world was cursed.
Then other loves — our passions — threw
Their shadows on the brain,
And like ill weeds they grew and grew
Amid the golden grain.
Ah! woman's love's the one thing true
In a world of lures and lies,
As if it were man's heaven that had
Survived his paradise!
Our other loves are but the dross
That to the soul must cling
Till we've forgot life's every loss
In Love's remembering.

At Least We Tried (feat. Freedom Bremner)
oh my baby, don't cry
oh my babe, just say goodbye
oh now baby, don't cry
oh my babe, at least we tried
at least we tried to make it
but in these days I'm so confused
oh my love, at least we had it
let me hold on to you
oh my baby, don't cry
oh my babe, just say goodbye
oh now baby, don't cry
oh my babe, at least we tried
at least we tried but we lost it
i will remember
how you stood there and you smiling
and you smile there with me
oh my baby, don't cry
oh my babe, just say goodbye
oh now baby, don't cry
oh my babe, at least we tried
oh my baby, don't cry
oh my babe, just say goodbye, say goodbye
oh now baby, don't cry
oh my babe, at least we tried, ohh
oh my baby, don't cry
oh my babe, just say goodbye
goodbye my baby, don't cry
oh my babe, at least we tried, whoa

Blissful Life
Over Parshington, a white stroke flew
Carrying a baby to where Africa grew
He was taken to a vast family of six
A family of black and white all a mix
He grew up in dearth, beginning by birth
But nothing stopped him ever, being a blissful mirth
He tilled the soil and asked for toil
And lived in grains forgetting his pains
He prized his time and saved his dime
And lived a life worth greater than words
Over Parshington, a white stroke flew
Carrying a baby where Africa grew
In looks he was poor, but inside he was pure
He was worthy of every touch
And worthy of the lot much
He lives a life of pleasure
Having love as his biggest treasure
Over Parshington, a white stroke flew
Carrying a baby where Africa grew

In the early days, we just wore black onstage. Very bold, my dear. Then we introduced white, for variety, and it simply grew and grew.

Don't Think Twice, It's All Right
Well it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It don't matter anyhow
And it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If you don't know by now
When the rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm travelling on
Don't think twice it's all right
Well it ain't no use in turning on your light, babe
Light I've never known
Ain't no use in turning on the light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road
Wish there was something you could do or say
Something to make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talking anyway
Don't think twice, it's all right
And it ain't no use in calling out my name, gal
Like you've never done before
It ain't no use in calling out my name, gal
I can't hear you anymore
I'm thinking and a wondering, walking down that road
I once loved a woman - A child I'm told
Gave her my heart, but she wanted my soul
Don't think twice, it's all right
So long, honey-babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
Goodbye is too good a word babe
I'll just say,

Oh Babe It Ain't No Lie
Been all around this whole round world,
Lord, I just got back to day.
Worked all the way honey and I gave it all to you
Honeybabe, what more can I do?
Oh babe, it ain't no lie.
Oh babe, it ain't no lie.
Oh babe, it ain't no lie.
You know this life I'm living is mighty high.
One more woman, Lord in this town.
Keep her telling her lies on me.
Wish to my soul that old woman would die.
Keep her telling her lies on me.

Looking at the Life I need to achieve!
My dear friends for I have failed you truly.
I now walk this journey on my own
Listening to this ballad that will never end.
I look out my window and all I see is beautiful
White Snow falling.
How I wish to be young again
and go sleeding with my big brother.
But we both grew up
Now it all depends on suriving
As I strummed my guitar
To recoginize that ballad once again
As I sleep I hear your voice in my dreams
Telling me to give it up.
As I awaken I brush it off and scream
Never for this is my dreams.
I look into the eyes of the strom
and face my fear.
For Once I can finally smile
Walking in and out
Running around in circle trying to
Realize What am I doing to achieve my dreams
For this is why my friends I leave you here.
Always remember to never give up on your dreams
As you see I have not
For now I made this journey and I will end it.
I will return to you my dear friends
with the smile you have never seen
with the heart the grew more so now....
Goodnight and Goodbye for now!

Dont Look Away
Writers: leo sayer & tom snow
Well, she talks in her sleep
About the men that she meets
With so much passion
In the morning I ask
But she takes me to task
Says Im overreacting
Shes a woman, playing a womans game
When I ask her, she looks at me like Im strange
I say, dont look away, babe
When Im talking to you
Dont look away, babe
Itll do you no good
Im into your game, babe
I been listening to you
Dont look away babe
Dont look away, oh no
Well, she sits on the phone
Like shes here on her own
Making these calls to no one
Now she slides out a ten
Says shes seeing a friend
Shes got so much going on
Shes a woman, playing a womans game
When I ask her
She looks at me like Im strange
I say, dont look away, babe
When Im talking to you
Dont look away, babe
Itll do you no good
Im into your game, babe
I been listening to you
Dont look away babe
Dont look away, oh no
Well, I follow her down to some part of town
Where weve never been before
Theres a car in the drive, and a man sits inside
I gotta stop her, before she gets in
Shes a woman, playing a womans game
When I ask her
She looks at me like Im insane
I say, dont look away, babe
When Im talking to you
Dont look away, babe
Itll do you no good
Im into your game, babe
I been listening to you
Dont look away babe
Dont look away, oh no

Woman Made Of Love
Woman Made Of Love
a woman from above
made from some distant heaven
made and fashioned somehow differently
than most of them
a woman made of love
a woman made of solid stuff
she decided to have a secret beau
so she hid him in her heart
but he grew cold
so she grew bold
and they both grew old
in talking love together
now he is bold and never cold
and she is never old
for in warming him she is now better
a woman made of love
she has her beau for ever
and they have love

The misfortune of the old
Who else will protect me as I’m too old?
I begot a son, who grew strong and bold.
Fully secure in his hand, I grew bald.
Alas! I couldn’t die before he grew old.

Love-affair
Babe you have the beauty that matches with a few
You have the quality to remain ever new.
Babe you have the smile that fascinates me
You have body-curves that make me sexy.
Babe your gorgeous eyes can attract me more
Your place is definitely my heart’s core.
Babe your mindset is full of innocence
I am sure about it thanks to sixth sense.

Without Regret
Saddened memories,
I once held as property.
Who knew,
They would go...
When they grew,
Inside of me!
I now reflect,
Without regret.
I know now
Defeats I've met!
But who knew,
They would go...
When they grew,
Inside of me!
Those times
Stayed on my mind
For days at a time.
I used that to feed,
My own desperate needing.
I lived with anger and deceit!
I felt those feelings deep,
Within me!
Defeats I have met!
But who knew,
They would go...
When they grew,
Inside of me!
But...
Who knew,
They would go...
When they grew,
Inside of me!
Who knew,
Like I do now...
When they grew,
Somehow
They would go...
From inside of me!

I Got A Line On You
Yeah.
Oh yeah, come on.
Now, let me take you babe, down to the river bed
Well, I got to tell you something
That'll go right through your head
I got a line on you babe
[I got a line on you babe]
Yeah, I got a line on you
[I got a line on you babe]
Come on.
Now, put your arms around me, every little bit of your love
Oh, you know what to do, I'll make love to you
You got the right stuff, and I do too
I got a line on you babe
[I got a line on you babe]
Yeah, I got a line on you
[I got a line on you babe]
Yeah!
Got my eye on you babe, on your velvet skin
I wanna put my hands were they've never been
Get real hot in the midnight steam
Soaking in the rain of my favorite dream
Your lips are red, the moon is blue
I only ask you once what you want to do
Gonna touch you babe 'til the night is through
Look out honey, got a line on you
Oh yeah.
Oh, now the winter's almost over,
The summer she's coming on strong.
Oh I could love you, love you, love you, love you all year long
I got a line on you babe
[I got a line on you babe]
Yeah, I got a line on you
[I got a line on you babe]
Ah yeah!
I got a line on you babe
[I got a line on you babe]
Yeah, I got a line on you
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
I got a line on you babe

IN THE MORNIN BABE...by talile ali
IN THE MORNIN BABE
WHEN I'M NEXT TO YOU
ALL I WANNA DO IS
HOLD YOU CLOSE AND SCREW
IN THE MORNING BABE
IT SUCH A SURPRISE
WHEN I LOOK INTO YOUR EYES
SO FINE I REALIZE
THERES NOT MUCH THAT A MAN CAN SAY
WHEN A WOMAN CAN MAKE HIM FEEL THAT WAY
BY JUST BEING ALIVE AND MOVING EVERY DAY
THERES NOT MUCH A MAN REALLY NEEDS TO SAY
IN THE AFTERNOON BABE
SIPPIN TEA WITH CAKES
YOUR LOVIN ME SO WELL
WE SCREW UNTIL IT'S LATE
IN THE AFTERNOON, BABE
AS YOU TAKE ME BY THE HAND
IM ONE STEP AHEAD OF YOU
WE DO IT AGAIN AND AGAIN
IN THE EVENING BABE
AFTER DINNER IS THRU
AS I SIT NEXT TO YOU AND CRY
BECAUSE I'M SO IN LOVE WITH YOU
IN THE EVENING BABE
AS YOU DRIFT INTO A DREAM
HOW BEATIFUL YOU LOOK
BAPTISED INSIDE A MOONBEAM
WHEN I'M DREAMIN BABE
I'M DREAMIN ALL ABOUT YOU
AND ALL THE THING WE CAN BE
BEING TOGETHER AND TRUE
WHILE I'M DREAMIN BABE
I AM OFTEN CAUGHT SURPRISED
AT THE SPARKLE IN YOUR CHEEKS
AND LAUGHTER IN YOUR EYE'S
I WANT YOU BABE
