Why

Why do the birds sing
When I am crying
Why are people happy
When my love is walking away
Why did our romance go wrong
When we were in love for so long
Why did our world fall apart
When we vowed we’d never part
Why

In Love For Long

I've been in love for long
With what I cannot tell
And will contrive a song
For the intangible
That has no mould or shape,
From which there's no escape.

It is not even a name,
Yet is all constancy;
Tried or untried, the same,
It cannot part from me;
A breath, yet as still
As the established hill.

It is not any thing,
And yet all being is;
Being, being, being,
Its burden and its bliss.
How can I ever prove
What it is I love?

This happy happy love
Is sieged with crying sorrows,
Crushed beneath and above
Between todays and morrows;
A little paradise
Held in the world's vice.

And there it is content
And careless as a child,
And in imprisonment
Flourishes sweet and wild;
In wrong, beyond wrong,
All the world's day long.

This love a moment known
For what I do not know
And in a moment gone
Is like the happy doe
That keeps its perfect laws
Between the tiger's paws
And vindicates its cause.

Little Love Birds

Little love
birds
You look so
cute
So vulnerable
So young
So fragile
In love
How dare you
Little love
birds
My beauties
Threatened
everywhere
Fall in love
in the world
of the strong
Little love birds
You are united
By love
You are brave
To dare
The hand of
The self
Righteous
You are strong
In love
Little love birds
May your
romance go from
Strength
To strength

Who says

Who Says
Who says who says
We can’t fall in love
I say I say
We show’em all wrong
You say you say
I already love you
Who says who says
We’ll never make it
I say I say
I think we will
You say you say
I know we will
Never listen to what other people say
No No never ever
listen to what other people say
Who says who say
Love isn’t real
I say I say
I’m in love with you
You say you say
I always loved you
Who says who says
That we won’t be happy
I say I say
I am happy with you
You say you say
I am in love with you
Never listen to what other people say
No NO never ever
listen to what other people say
Who says whop says
We wont fall in love
I say I say
We show’em wrong
You say you say
I already love you

Watching The World Go Past

I sit on the front step
Just watching the world go past
People walking
People talking

I see people running from themselves
People walking their best friends
Children playing with others hearts
Teenage girls crying over the past

I just and watch the sun set
Signalling that a new day will begin soon
I watch the rising of the moon
And the dots getting ever so brighter

Watch people fall in love
People smile as if nothings wrong
I watch all the people who have nothing to do
Watching people who have nothing to loose

I sit and watch the different lives form
Watching the new scene starting
The new lives beginning with a smile
The lives coming to and end

I sit on the front step
Just watching the world go past
People walking
People talking

Love Me Now

Yesterday came back my solitude
Which through the night to brings me our days
Where the warm sea and he smiles,
Happy evening with blue stars,
Cool rain and kindly love again.

Love me now, love me now,

This is beautiful night to remember

Love me now, love me now,

This is where our romantic september

And two lonely people in the dance,

And the birds with this autumn's romance

Love me now, love me now,

Lover friend...

Eyes to eyes and hand to hand.

And somebody takes me by the hand
In old mirror I see amusing face,
But you can tell me once more
When comes memory to the door,
I regret, what part with love so sad.

Love me now, love me now,

This is beautiful night to remember

Love me now, love me now,

This is where our romantic september

And two lonely people in the dance,

And the birds with this autumn's romance

Love me now, love me now,

Lover friend...

Eyes to eyes and hand to hand.

Shout It Out

She took me for a ride in her car
From the moment it started I knew
We wouldnt get far
That didnt matter it seemed
Though I knew it went schemed
And it was just like a dream
Oh, the joy of love was brand
Thats when I heard
The little birds sing
The day I first met my love
Oh, the day I first met my love
Then we went walking in the park
Away with the day
Till the day became dawn
Man hand in hand with the son
Laughed at the rain
When it came along
Oh, the joy of love was brand
As well the birds
As well the stars would sing
The day I first met my love
Oh, the day I first met my love
Am I really standing here with you
Are you telling me you love me too
Will it grow
Can we let the world know
Put it about, shout it out
The day I first met my love

Happy Birthday

You know it doesnt make much sense
There ought to be a law against
Anyone who takes offense
At a day in your celebration
cause we all know in our minds
That there ought to be a time
That we can set aside
To show just how much we love you
And Im sure you would agree
It couldnt fit more perfectly
Than to have a world party on the day you came to be
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
I just never understood
How a man who died for good
Could not have a day that would
Be set aside for his recognition
Because it should never be
Just because some cannot see
The dream as clear as he
That they should make it become an illusion
And we all know everything
That he stood for time will bring
For in peace our hearts will sing
Thanks to martin luther king
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Why has there never been a holiday
Where peace is celebrated
All throughout the world
The time is overdue
For people like me and you
Who know the way to truth
Is love and unity to all gods children
It should never be a great event
And the whole day should be spent
In full remembrance
Of those who lived and died for the oneness of all people
So let us all begin
We know that love can win
Let it out dont hold it in
Sing it loud as you can
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Ooh yeah
Happy birthday...
We know the key to unify all people
Is in the dream that you had so long ago
That lives in all of the hearts of people
That believe in unity
Well make the dream become a reality
I know we will
Because our hearts tell us so

Praises

It is now time I sing praises
I sing not for long lost love
And her warm cold embraces
Neither do I sing for days that
are sad
But I think of you with love
That are now far from my heart.

Have I been a renegade to love?
Said I wouldn't anymore fall in love
But yet amour, and yet more amour
I would stoop and fall in love.
Lord pleas make right my song

This song I sing is not for love
That are lost.
But this song of mine is wrong.

Please do not sing it to your lover
For they would cry, and leave you
bitter.

Why Do Fools Fall In Love

(f. lymon/g. goldner)
Ooh wah, ooh wah
Ooh wah, ooh wah
Ooh wah, ooh wah
Why do fools fall in love?
Why do birds sing so gay
And lovers await the break of the day
Why do they fall in love?
Why does the rain fall from up above?
Why do fools fall in love?
Why do they fall in love?
Love is a losing game
Love can be a shame
I know, Im a fool you see
For that fool is me
Tell me why
Tell me why
Why do birds sing so gay
And lovers await the break of the day
Why do they fall in love?
Why does the rain fall from up above?
Why do fools fall in love?
Why do they fall in love?
Why does my heart
Skip a crazy beat?
For I know
It will reach defeat
Tell me why
Tell me why
Why do fools fall in love?
Tell me why
Tell me why

Happy To Give

I was born a believer, played the fool
Lonely dreamer, left to choose
I dont know where the love is, theres a promise undone
Someones cryin, in a room all alone
Shadows fall, after the hurt is gone
Through it all, we love and we lose
Where is the one, someone whos happy (happy to give)
Happy to be with you, its here you belong, with someone
Whos happy (happy to give) happy to give you love
A song for the singer, one book of dreams
Take this heartache, away from me
A page in a story, romance untold
Sharing secrets, we call, our own
Shadows fall, after the hurt is gone
Through it all, we love and we lose
Where is the one, someone whos happy (happy to give)
Happy to be with you, its where you belong, with someone
Whos happy (happy to give) happy to give you love
Happy, happy, oh happy
(happy to give), oo happy to give
Oh somebodys happy to give you love,
Your love, your love oh yeah

Teenage Romance

Teenage Romance is hitting me… again
Seems like not that long ago
I didn’t give 2 shits about romance
Other then the appreciation
“That I Courtney Redmond was in a relationship
And getting some ass”
From a guy that truly loved me for me
Sex is nice, well if I would get it on the regular
Then I could write more on it
But I can’t.
I can only say with pride
That I’m a virgin
Who reads too many romance novels
And dreams of a romance that will last for all time.
Silly dreams.

I’m such a teenager… I need a life.
I need to get laid too…. Soon
Well I think I can make it for a while
But the only thing that makes it all worthwhile
Is that I’m clean… there ain’t no bugs on me
Says the puppy in me.

I need to move on from the romance days
And into the new
No more living in the sex crazed world of others
And into the world of focusing on school
And career…. Then *poof* live on.

Being single isn’t as bad as people make it seem
Its fun most of the time
Till the dreaded Valentines day comes
Or the couple of the week meets and puts their lips together
And eww I don’t even want to talk about it anymore.
I need a drink after all this teenage romance stuff
It’s all for the birds… well more the love birds.
Girls here’s a hit how about instead of a guy
How about you get a dog.
More reliable I say on certain matters.

I hate being a teenager… might as well shoot myself
For all the drama in romance.
But hey what else would I have to hide from
Other then myself.

Oh Where Oh Where Is Love?

Sung by: the tramp and the do-gooders
In a world full of jive,
Full of homicide and suicide,
Theres no room for love and romance.
In a world full of spite
Full of hatefulness and bitterness,
Sincerity dont stand a chance.
And every night I close my eyes
And ask the stars above,
Oh where, oh where, oh where, oh where is love?
Where is love and romance,
And appreciation of storybooks, fairytales
And the ordinary things people did long ago.
Where did it go?
Where is love?
Where is hope?
Where is sympathy and trust?
Where is faith?
Where is joy in simplicity?
And where is regard and respect?
Oh where, oh where is love?
This world is spinning and turning
And my head is full of learning,
But my thoughts keep on returning
To the things I used to know.
I should be stronger,
But my mind continually wanders
And deep inside
A voice keeps crying
Where, oh where is love?
Where is love and romance,
And appreciation of storybooks, fairytales,
And the ordinary things people did long ago?
Where did it go?
In a world full of jive,
Full of homicide and suicide,
Theres no room for love and romance.
In a world full of rape,
Full of hatefulness and bitterness,
Sincerity dont stand a chance.
And every night I close my eyes
And ask the stars above,
Oh where, oh where, oh where, oh where is love?
Where oh where is love?
Where is love?
Where is hope?
Where is sympathy and trust?
Where is faith?
Where is joy and simplicity
And where is regard and respect?
Oh where, oh where is love?
Oh where oh where is love?
Oh where oh where is love?

End Of The World

(eric carmen)
Things are so wrong
I know how hard it must seem
But honey, I need you beside me now
People get angry
They say things they dont mean
Were gonna make it work somehow
Whoa, and darlin
Its not the end of the world
As long as you love me
As long as you love me
Aah, darlin
Its not the end of the world
As long as you need me
As long as you need me
Love isnt easy
And theres no guarantee
Everything has to turn out right
We got each other
And thats all that we need
That and the way we feel inside
Whoa, and darlin
Its not the end of the world
As long as you love me
As long as you love me
Aah, darlin
Its not the end of the world
As long as you need me
As long as you need me
Darlin
Its not the end of the world
As long as you love me
As long as you love me
Aah, darlin
Its not the end of the world
As long as you need me
As long as you need me

As long as you love me
As long as you love me

As long as you need me

Walking By The Sea

At the end of day
with my bride to be
watching birds at play
walking by the sea
holding her hand squeezing her tight
on the shore of sand, that be
all through the night
down by the sea
happy and carefree
no one in sight under the watchtower light
just her and me
walking by the sea
upon me came a feeling of euphoric kin
I never felt before
just a little after ten
walking on the shore
I think its love you know
thats what I wanted it to be
now we always go
walking by the sea
I always think of that day, long shed
just her and me, as beforesaid
walking by the sea

Seventy Cities As Love Brings The Fall

He wants the world
Screams everything
Follows in love
Love brings the fall
She is a country
Feel for life
Follows in love
Love brings the fall
First tear forms in the right eye
This is the eye thats crying first
First tear forms in the right eye
This is the eye thats crying first
Going somewhere
Getting someplace
Going somewhere
Follows in love
Love brings the fall
Going somewhere
Getting someplace
Going somewhere
Follows in love
Love brings the fall
Going somewhere
Getting someplace
Going somewhere
Follows in love
Cities heavy
Moving breathing
Follows in love
Love brings the fall
The need to draw blood somehow
Follows in love
Love brings the fall
Breath is in
Breath is out
Im not seeing anything
I see too much
When the otherside of midnight calls
Remind me Im glad to be here
First tear forms in the right eye
This is the eye thats crying first
In seventy cities
In seventy cities
Oh no oh no oh no no no
Here it comes here it comes
Here it comes
Oh no

Not Enough Romance

Shouldve never made eye contact
Shouldve been a heart of stone
When you stopped me to say hello
Wouldve been twice as easy
To just say no
Cause I dont wanna lose at love again
But as a couple we were quite handsome
And the moon was out that night
So we let our hearts go dancing
If that thing is missing in my life
Chorus
Theres not enough romance in this world
Theres not enough romance in this world
Theres too many people thinking only of themselves
You gotta give love for its return
Wanna sing about new lovers
Stand up against the odds
Nothing can change a thing that strong
And myself I know my emotions
I got my love to share
And when you need something so tender
What youre looking for is so rare
Chorus
Theres not enough romance in this world
Theres not enough romance in this world
You gotta believe in what your heart tells you is right
And Im here to say that I believe in love
We take a lot of chances playing some foolish games
But thats the only price that you gotta pay
We gotta keep believing hungry hearts run free
Everybody needs a good loving
Its anything you want it to be

Rainbow People

The sign of the rainbow has been deliberated and set free
It represents multiple cultures and people - you see
I see the same colors as every other person on this planet
So why not open your heart and mind and free it from granite

Why would anyone care what people do behind a closed door
Love is love and regardless where you find it - you score
In this world today everyone can chose their family and friends
So be careful or you may lose a loved one forever - without sense

A family depends on love to be strong and to survive
In my book it doesn't matter who gives it as long as it thrives
I love to see couples in love walking hand in hand
We should be happy for all without judging and reprehend

I wouldn't want to discuss my sexual practices out loud
Why does the church do it although true Christianity they vowed
Reading the bible I remember faith compassion and love
So what happened to all when its differences you speak of

Does your scripture not say that you should judge none
So why not let people love who they want without being shun
I strongly appeal to common sense and education in this matter
After all it could be your or your loved ones DNA on the platter

Cupids Got A Gun

So many lonely people looking for a way
To fill the empty nights when the phone wont ring
We all want to fall in love, hear the birds sing.
So if youre feeling desparate, dont give up
Times, they are a changing and so is your luck.
Cupids got a gun
Arrows wouldnt do
Hes got the power love for you
Its a big big love
His aim is true
Dont try to run
Cupids got a gun.
Dont you just sit there feeling sorry for yourself
Reading romance novels and laying around the house
Dreaming that the good parts were written just for you
Then waking up saying this will never come true
Stop your hesitating go out tonight
You know hes out there waiting
To get you in his sights.
Cupids got a gun
Arrows wouldnt do
Hes got the power love for you
Its a big big love
His aim is true
Dont try to run
Cupids got a gun.
Its a real tough job helping people fall in love
That old bow and arrow just wasnt strong enough
Cupid wasnt stupid, he knew just what to do
Now hes loaded for love,
Hes coming for you.
