Pick Me Up
You are my pick me up
when the world gets me down,
the ray of sunshine,
which can reverse any frown.
You embody the word love,
and everything it means.
You are mine forever,
what more can anyone want,
because you are my pick me up
for whenever I am down.

Sunshine Superman
Sunshine came softly through my window today
I could have tripped out easy but Ive changed my ways.
Itll take time I know it, but in a while...
Youre gonna be mine and I know it, well do it in style.
Cause Ive made my mind up youre going to be mine
Ill tell you right now...
Any trick in the book, oh baby, that I can find.
Everybodys hustling just to have a little scene.
When I say well be cool, well, I think that, you know what i
Mean.
We stood on a beach at sunset, do you remember when...
I know a beach where baby, it never ends.
When youve made your mind up forever to be mine.
Ill pick up your hand and slowly, blow your little mind.
Cause Ive made my mind up youre going to be mine
Ill tell you right now...
Any trick in the book, oh baby, that I can find
Superman or green lantern aint got, nothin on me.
I can make like a turtle and dive for pearls in the sea
You can just sit there thinkin, on your velvet throne
About all the rainbows you can have for your own.
When youve made your mind up forever to be mine.
Ill tell you right now...
Ill pick up your hand and slowly, blow your little mind.
When youve made your mind up forever to be mine.
Ill pick up your hand and slowly, blow your little mind.
Ill tell you right now...

Pick It Up Or Be Gone
Pick it up or be gone.
What's given.
Pick it up or be gone.
What's there.
Pick it up or be gone.
The steak.
Or the rake.
Or the keys,
To open the gate!
Now...
Pick it up or be gone.
What's given.
Pick it up or be gone.
What's there.
Pick it up or be gone.
The steak.
Or the rake.
Or the keys,
To open the gate!
Now...
Don't try to imitate,
Homemade cake.
Oh no.
And don't ever try to duplicate,
A delicious taste.
Or...
Butter up faked mashed potatos.
Pick it up or be gone.
What's given.
Pick it up or be gone.
What's there.
Pick it up or be gone.
The steak.
Or the rake.
Or the keys,
To open the gate!

Oooow.
Pick it up or be gone.

Pick it up or be gone.

Perfect World
I never could have seen this far
I never could have seen this coming
It seems like my whole world is falling apart
Why is everything so hard?
I don't think that i can deal
With the things you said
It just wont go away
In a perfect world
This could never happen
In a perfect world
You'd still be here
And it makes no sense
I can just pick up the pieces
But to you this means nothing
Nothing at all
I used to think that i was strong
Until the day it all went wrong
I think i need a miracle to make it through
I wish that i could bring you back
I wish that i could turn back time
Cuz i can't let go
I just can't find my way
Without you I just can't find my way
In a perfect world
This could never happen
In a perfect world
You'd still be here
And it makes no sense
I can just pick up the pieces
But to you this means nothing
Nothing at all
I don't know what i should do now
I don't know where i should go
I'm still here waiting for you
I'm lost when your not around
I need to hold on to you
I just can't let you go
In a perfect world
This could never happen
In a perfect world
You'd still be here
And it makes no sense
I can just pick up the pieces
But to you this means nothing
Nothing at all
You feel nothing
Nothing at all

Considerations About Love!
A friend of mine!
trying understand me, asked me
What your inspiration?
I tell him! Is about love?
Is about life? or how difficult the both can be?
So try be owner of one person
try shut up all your screams
pretend that he or she is yours
and treat him like it something
Pick up your love and say
you are mine!
not for love but for my possesion
pick up your son and with proud said
he is mine, all mine
And have no doubt
he goes far away from you
and never goes back
because love has to be freedom
Love has to be right to go
And if you really love someone
have to let him go and say
I love you i'll be there if you back
Say to him, i love you
But your hapiness came first
near me or away from me
So Go, i wait for you
So if really love is
they back, because my love
your love and our love
has to be the right to go and back
If he wants!

Bullying
Bullys are mean.
If the must pick on someone
Why not themselfs.
Why do they have to
Interigate others
And make them cry.
What do they get out of it?
Is it they got bullyed?
Or mabey it makes them
Feel big and clever.
Is it the only way they get fun?
How sad their lives must be.
It must be a sad life to lead.
But thats their choice
Why dont they get together?
And beat each other?
A saying I like the most
A saying that gives
A woderfull message.
If you must pick
With others fualts
Look with a mirror
Not a magnifying Glass.
In my veiw
It means
Look at yourself
Before you judge others.
A wise person once said
When your purfect
Then pick with others fualts
Noone is pufect
And if we were all the same
What a boring place
The world would be.

Love Is A Rose
Love is a rose but you better not pick it
Only grows when its on the vine
Handful a thorns and you know youve missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine
I want to see whats never been seen,
I want to live an angels dream
Boys and girls lets get together
And do the best right now
I want to go to a old hoe-down
Long ago in a western town
Pick me up, my feet are draggin
Give me a lft and Ill hay your wagon
Love is a rose but you better not pick it
Only grows when its on the vine
Handful a thorns and you know youve missed it,
Lose your love when you say the word mine
I want to see whats never been seen
I want to live and angels dream
Boys and girls lets get together
And do the best right now.
And do the best right now.

We Battle To See Acts Of Love
You can battle any illness you wish...
But,
Battle with the act of love.
You can fill you mind with terrorists...
That keep your fears endearing.
But the fact your battles fought have no love.
And don't you know that you...
The giving up of anything,
Will return.
So why not battle with the act of love.
Burdens carried on one's back,
Seem to be attached...
'Cause they don't do their,
Battles with love.
Those who pick their battles,
Pick their battles without facts.
'Cause many have no protected love.
If there is love,
There is a battle...
But the battle can be won,
With a love that's felt in everyone.
Those who pick their battles,
Pick their battles without facts.
'Cause many have no protected love.
You can battle any illness you wish...
But,
Battle with the act of love.
You can battle any illness you wish...
But,
Battle with the act of love.
Those who pick their battles,
Pick their battles without facts.
'Cause many have no protected love.
Those who pick their battles,
Pick their battles without facts.
'Cause many have no protected love.
If we pick our battles,
We must be matter of fact....
That we battle to see acts of love.
We battle to see acts of love.
Let's say we do it...
That we battle to see acts of love!

You Made Okay To Do It Your Way
You pick up then you kicked the ball.
You pick up then you kicked the ball.
You pick up then you kicked the ball.
You pick up then you kicked the ball.
Why did you choose to pick a ball,
Knowing picking it...
Wasn't cool to do.
You complained,
That you couldn't take the weight.
And a waiting too late makes it okay.
You pick up then you kicked the ball.
You pick up then you kicked the ball.
You pick up then you kicked the ball.
You pick up then you kicked the ball.
You made okay to do it your way,

Pick then kick a ball.

You
You- you are that breath taking mystery my heart has long longed for.
That fresh air, sweet scent aroma. a moment to last forever, a smile never to frown or be let down.
You that feeling of not wanting to let go, a story I would like to know, a picture I want to paint, u that saint.
U are truly great u drive me insane but hey in a good way. Please tell me you're here to stay and-and love me all the way, and tell me you won't leave me tell me you'll stay and still love me all the way.
I have long longed, long awaited to be loved this way, u are heaven sent, you mean the world to this heart of mine, you-you mine forever and ever for a lifetime, I love you my sunshine.

Arms Of Mine
They have always been here to hold you,
As they have and will till the end of time
And they will die to defend and protect you
They are; these arms of mine.
Though other Men arms are stronger
That have held you and protected you before,
But my arms, have always been there for you
As they have today, and will forever more.
When you have been in tears, you they held
When you needed help, they were there for you
When you were in trouble, your load they carried
Whatever you needed, for you they would do.
Though other arms have held you once before
Arms, that would give you a smile from a frown
Arms that were there, for your love and care
But mine would pick you up; when you are down.
Though they are flawed and not that strong
And they are here, for just one lifetime
Though others might laugh, when their eyes they past
But for you they're always here; These Arms Of Mine.

Get back to a simpler time.
If not just in your mind...
When you found a reason and rhyme.
To unwind.
Get back to a purposeness.

And your mind wasn't condensed...
To accepting false lies...
To fly like they do!
Hop-in-that-taxi...and get back to you.

Reverse Each Word
Reverse each word and learn from my muse,
For a 'pot' becomes the 'top' and the 'dog' becomes a 'god'!
But the 'loop' of your joy is like this 'pool' around us.
Reverse each word and learn from my muse,
For the 'pan' in your hand will make you take a 'nap' on my love!
And like a 'ton' of your expected cargo which is still 'not' in.
Try to learn if you want to and,
try to laugh if you are in the mood!
For you have promised me your sweet love,
But the 'bat' on your tree is like the 'tab' in your room.
Reverse each word and learn from my muse,
For the word 'no' becomes 'on' like the light which is on!
And 'stop' the 'pots' from falling because,
I have 'won' the race which you set before me and 'now' it is your turn.
Reverse each word and learn from my muse,
Because i know what i 'saw' in your room!
Since i 'was' there to be part of the game being played,
But the 'mug' on your table was like the sweet 'gum' given to me.

Books
Books take me to a place like no other
When I'm reading no one else madders
All my problems go away and it's just my books and me.
Books I like that word but when I read
My mom and dad and all my brothers and sisters go away
And I'm left there with no one but a book.
And then I pick it up and the word isn't so empty any more
It's full again. Like when you're a kid and your mom or dad
Come home after a long trip without you and you missed them
And then you're crying, laughing and happy all at the same time.
That how I get with a book I just found.
Happy because it's by my favorite Author but yet sad because
The book ended with questions still in my head.
And laughing because it was funny at one point in the book.
I love that felling when I pick up a book.
How do you fell when you pick up a book?
Happy, sad, a funny felling? You tell me please come on now don't be shy.

From those risks.

Pick Me Up
Sittin in my pickup truck
Listening to the country station
Singer singing bout a lasting love
Me, Im losing patience
cause I dont know what hes talking about
I fell so far that I cant get out
A helping hand on a hopeless heart
Is all I need for a brand new start
Chorus
Pick me up so I can fall again
Help me get back on my feet again
I gotta get back to ground zero
Before I have a chance to win
Pick me up so I can fall again
She sits down beside me at the caf bar
Lookin better than she ought to
Another chance for true romance
And I pray that it wont fall thru
I hope you know what Im talkin about
Im in so deep that I cant climb out
A healing hand on a hurtin heart is all I need
For a brand new start
Pick me up so I can fall again
Chorus
Pick me up, pick me up
Pick me up so I can fall again

The Shadow-Child
Why do the wheels go whirring round,
Mother, mother?
Oh, mother, are they giants bound,
And will they growl forever?
Yes, fiery giants underground,
Daughter, little daughter,
Forever turn the wheels around,
And rumble-grumble ever.
Why do I pick the threads all day,
Mother, mother,
While sunshine children are at play?
And must I work forever?
Yes, shadow-child; the live-long day,
Daughter, little daughter,
Your hands must pick the threads away,
And feel the sunshine never.
Why do the birds sing in the sun,
Mother, mother,
If all day long I run and run,
Run with the wheels forever?
The birds may sing till day is done,
Daughter, little daughter,
But with the- wheels your feet must run—
Run with the wheels forever.
Why do I feel so tired each night,
Mother, mother?
The wheels are always buzzing bright;
Do they grow sleepy never?
Oh, baby thing, so soft and white,
Daughter, little daughter,
The big wheels grind us in their might,
And they will grind forever.
And is the white thread never spun,
Mother, mother?
And is the white cloth never done,
For you and me done never?
Oh yes, our thread will all be spun,
Daughter, little daughter,
When we lie down out in the sun,
And work no more forever.
And when will come that happy day,
Mother, mother?
Oh, shall we laugh and sing and play
Out in the sun forever?
Nay, shadow-child, we'll rest all day,
Daughter, little daughter,
Where green grass grows and roses gay,
There in the sun forever.

One More Night
One more night ...
City lights are
Burning in the distance
Seems they're tellin' me
To hurry home
But i can't push these
Wheels of mine no harder
So hold on baby for
One more night alone
There's time for me to take just
One look over my shoulder
One last glance at
What's been going on
'cause i'll be there at
First light in the morning
We'll pick up the pieces
And baby, then we'll be long gone
Pick up the pieces and run with me
As fast as you can
You know you always said
I was the man
Pick up the pieces, let's do it now
Let's say our last farewell
Tomorrow may be too late
As far as i can tell

Pick Up The Pieces Again
(sylvester)
Evening, I see the sun
Leaving today
Cool night, mellow light
Dont fade away
Your eyes, paradise
What do they say
Leaving, loving
Stay one more day
And after all the tears have fallen my way
Youd think that we could never feel the same
Love is strange
Pick up the pieces again
Long time, friend of mine
Words of farewell
Love is, the learning
I knew you well
And after all the tears have fallen my way
Youd think that we could never feel the same
Love is strange
Pick up the pieces again
Pick up the pieces
