Last Man Standing
My eldest is in China
On the way to the Li Jiang
She’s seen the Terracotta Warriors
In a place that called Xian.
My youngest, she’s in Sydney town
Her love in life is reading books
She has a sense of fantasy
And red curled Irish looks.
Me? I am in Pearl Beach
For others paradise
But I am on my own up here
And lead a damaged life.
I suffer from depression
And that’s very clear to see
For though the sun is shining high
It looks so dark to me.
I have many close that hold me
I am lucky in that way
They love me just for me being me
And don’t seem go away.
But the track of time’s unwinding
Each year, past friends are lost
Sometimes illness, now a suicide
And ‘gainst their names I put a cross.
For I am the last man standing
I’m like those soldiers made of clay
I am the last man standing
I am not going to go away.
I am the last man standing
For I have a hand of cards
That others wish that they did have
But being the last’s becoming hard.
For my eldest is in China
My youngest still in Sydney town
Although they are away from me
My heart is with them now.
Look! My greyness, it is passing
Now I can see the sun!
I know they love me for being me
Not for what I have not done.
For this thing called life is fragile
But it has a strength within
Not brittle like those warriors
But as fine as porcelain.

Standing In For Joe
Im standing, standing in for joe
Joe called round to ask me, would I do a favor?
While hes gonna be out of town
He says his girl needs company, she gets so restless
Would I keep her safe and sound?
Softly, softly in the night
Why, you can guess the rest...
Now these shoes fit all too well
Standing in for joe
Standing in for joe
Im standing - in for joe
Joe said weve been friends so long
That I would be the one he would trust with his life
And now those words roll round my brain
As darkness falls, as I turn out his bedroom light
Who could resist her tender charms?
So the story goes...
This actor he plays all the parts
Standing in for joe
Standing in for joe
Im standing - in for joe
Love is like a river,
You cannot stop its flow... mmm hmm
Joe called round to ask me, would I do a favor?
While hes gonna be out of town
He says his girl needs company, she gets so restless
Would I check that shes safe and sound?
Softly, softly in the night
Why, you can guess the rest...
Now these shoes fit all too well
Standing in for joe
Im standing in for joe - oh yeah
Im standing in for joe - keep his sweetheart company, yeah
Standing in for joe - just standing in for joe, yeah
Standing in for joe - until he gets back home, yeah
Standing in for joe - gonna keep her insane, yeah
Standing in for joe - gonna keep her safe and sound, yeah
Standing in for joe - keep his sweetheart company, yeah
Standing in for joe - almost full time, which is nice, yeah
Standing in for joe - because she gets so restless
Standing in for joe - always so restless
Standing in for joe - keep his sweetheart company, yeah
Standing in for joe - gonna keep her safe and sound, yeah
Standing in for joe - Im standing in for joe, yeah...

It All Becomes Clear
written by Marv Ross (words) / Jack Charles (music)
Say goodbye to the life you've been living
So long to the friends you hold dear
You're life's been jarred and moved out of focus
From far away will it all become clear?
Where is the time given to love
Where are the nights that we're missing
Where is the joy that we knew
Am I lost again, lost again, lost and confused?
Standing close to the work you've been painting
Shades and lines diffuse when so near
Standing back does it all fall together
From far away will it all become clear
From far, far away it all becomes clear

Sydney my Love
Sydney my love, Sydney my city.
Pretty pretty place,
Plenty- plenty beauty.
Sydney my love, Sydney my city.
First rays of sun –
Spread here fun,
Splendour and majesty,
Nothing so beauty.
Sydney my love, Sydney my city.
Tidy beaches, green green trees,
Heavenly blowing cool cool breeze,
Kissing the shore waves sporty.
Sydney my love, Sydney my city.
Fort Dension, port Jackson,
Kings Cross, Opera attraction,
Harbour bridge, Bondi beach,
Place to find calm & peace,
Sydney is our identity.
Sydney my love, Sydney my city.
Kangaroo, emu, blue mountain,
Adventure, romance, 4x, fun.
Flora fauna, folk, fidelity.
Sydney my love, Sydney my city.

Nothing Much Happens in Sydney
Nothing much happens in Sydney
Nothing much happens at all
Unless you count all the cricket
And tennis and squash and football.
Nothing much happens in Sydney
No life on the streets or in town
That's unless you count all the tourists
But then they do stick around
The things they always call 'icons'
Like the bridge and the rocks and the beach
You see there's nothing much happens in Sydney
Not too much to do in the heat.
There's one special building in Sydney
Right on the water it stands
Its roof looks like sails made of concrete
No wonder it's stuck on dry land
They called it the Opera House somehow
Not sure why they did at the time
Its got concerts and shows does the Opera
But not that much singing in rhyme.
Nothing much happens in Sydney
We're too far away don't you see
That's unless you count all the cafes,
Restaurants and brasseries.
Nothing much happens in Sydney
Some say it’s the arse end of the world
It takes a whole day to get anywhere
Anywhere else on this earth.
So why has the number of people
Who live here quite gone through the roof?
There's close on four million in Sydney
That's if they're telling the truth.
Perhaps things do happen in Sydney
Perhaps it isn't that bad
Perhaps there is life here in Sydney
But we take it for granted and have
A view that our city is lacking
And I find that really quite sad.
It's time to wake up to Sydney
It's time to open our eyes
Where else in this world that we live in
Are signs saying 'Arancini and Pies'?
The truth is this land called Australia
Was first settled by the dour pommes
Now there's every race in Australia
Yet we still feel we don't quite belong.
We think that nothing much happened
From when we got here till today
Our history's stuck in a closet
Locked up with the key thrown away.
Now two hundred years is a long time
A long time in all history books
But there's something quite strange about Sydney
We miss things 'cause we don’t look
For the history that does surround us
In every part of this town
That history's living and breathing
If only we do look around.
There's the barracks and then there's the gaol house
Which for maximum impact were planned
To keep these new Australians
In line with the laws of the land.
The gaol house, it stands on a corner
On a higher part of the town
People looked up to the goal house
And the law on the people looked down.
There's clear sentiment in this story
A sentiment best not forgot
And that we won’t value our future
If we don't value what we have got
From the people that were here before us
Our ancestors here on this land
If we don't get to know our own history
Then our present we won't understand.

I Just Wanna Be There
(nickolas ashford / valerie simpson)
Now when the storm of life is rushing in on you
And all hope is gone
And you feel the pain and misery of
Being left all alone
After youve tried so hard and your life
Is standing still
And you think you just dont have the
Strength to climb another hill
Oh, I just wanna be there
I just wanna be there
Just to hold you close
Said I wanna be there
I just wanna be there
cause I love you most
When you need a little understanding from
Your so-called friends
And you find the road youre travelling down is
Coming do a dead-end
When suddenly you find yourself lost and
Stumbling through the night
Now let me be the hand in the dark thats leading
You to the light
Oh, I just wanna be there
I just wanna be there
Just to hold you close
Said I wanna be there
I just wanna be there
cause I love you most
Ooh, ooh, I wanna be there
Baby, baby, baby, baby, I wanna be there, yeah
Wanna be there
Said I wanna be there
I just wanna be there
cause I love you most
Promise not to ever try to change you
I love you for yourself
No matter what you choose to be your fate
Now let me be your helpmate
Let me be the main source of power that
Makes your wheels turn
And let me be the wood in the furnace to make
Your fire burn
Yeah, I just wanna be there
Just to hold you close
Said I wanna be there
cause I love you most
Ooh, hey, I wanna be there
Said I wanna be there
cause I love you most
Said I wanna be, wanna be, wanna be there, yeah
cause I love you most

Like China
My mom and daddy both say
I must be crazy to be this infatuated
But I know you know
We got something special never felt before
You get me going just looking at you
And the feelings not hard to recognise so
Alright Ill come out in the open with it
Will you walk out with me.
Cos youre the first girl Ive ever loved
Tell me do you feel the same way
Well Ill show you Im not like all the rest
Cos I know who I am
Your skin is smooth as silk and your eyes like stars
Youre just like a picture book standing there
But I cant go on
No, I cant go on thinking you dont feel the same way that I do
Ill be so careful Ill hold you like china
Ill promise not to hurt you Ill hold you like china
You wont feel nothing, Ill hold you like china
cos I know its your first time
Your mum and dad dont like me
And they tell me every time I call around to see you
I dont know why
Cos I always straighten my tie and comb my hair
I know your brother thinks that
Im a limp wristed wimp from the other side of town
I know hes got me wrong
Because Im really not like that, Ill tell you why
Youre the first girl Ive ever loved
Tell me do you feel the same way
Well Ill show you Im not like all the rest
cos I know who I am
I remember the very first time I held your hand
And that was the last time you were so close to me
But I cant go on
No, I cant go on thinking you dont feel the same way as I do
Ill be so careful Ill hold you like china
Ill promise not to hurt you Ill hold you like china
You wont feel nothing, Ill hold you like china
cos I know its your first time
I know you know and now I want to, I want to tell everybody
I know you know and now I want them all to see...

The Prime of Life
OH, the strength of the toil of those twenty years, with father, and master, and men!
And the clearer brain of the business man, who has held his own for ten:
Oh, the glorious freedom from business fears, and the rest from domestic strife!
The past is dead, and the future assured, and I’m in the prime of life!
She bore me old, and they kept me old, and they worked me early and late;
I carried the loads of my selfish tribe, from seven to thirty eight:
I slaved with dad, in the dust and heat, that my brothers might enjoy—
But I rest to-day in the prime of life, and I’ll live and die a boy!
When the last crop failed, and the stock were gone, did the old man’s head go down?
No! he started business, on what was left, in the produce line in town.
They sent my brothers to boarding schools, when our way to the front we’d won—
They’d borrow, and borrow, but never had aught but contempt for the eldest son.
My brothers they went to the world away, and they left the home in strife.
They sowed wild oats in the pride of youth, and they pawned the prime of life.
They sowed too fast, and they sowed too far; and they came back one by one—
You couldn’t tell which is the eldest son and which is the youngest son.
Oh, I longed for a love that I could not claim, and a breath of the youth denied—
But I stuck to the store when the old man went, and the mater until she died:
With Job’s own sister and Satan’s aunt—good Lord! and the fiend’s own wife—
But I’m free of them now, it is no matter how, and I’m in the prime of life.
My brothers have turned respectable, and are steady as men can be:
The youngest and worst is a leading light—and he aims at reforming me!
But I lend and help, and I’ll fix them up, for I can’t but see with a sigh,
That the youngest, who left us a handsome boy, is an older man than I.
But it’s “Lord make us thankful” three times a day, before they eat their fill—
They can thank the Lord if they like, I say, but I reckon I pay the bill.
They feel independent, I’m glad to know, for if all I hear is true,
My brothers agree that I do no more than I have a right to do.
They’ll work in the store while I see the world, and I’ll let them share the till—
But I sail to-day, for a year away, to go wherever I will:
I sail with the woman who waited for me—old sweetheart; and brand new wife—
She is handsome and true, and she’s thirty-two—and I’m in the prime of life.
For Capetown, and London, and Norraway, for Germany, Holland, and France,
For Switzerland, Italy—anywhere—for Greece, and for Egypt a glance,
For India, China, and “strange Japan”, for the East with mystery rife—
I have made enough, and I have my love—and I’m in the prime of life!

Standing On The Edge
In the middle of the night
I had a vision
It was bigger than life
Standing on the edge of my bed
She said come here, dont be afraid
Her tongue opened like a shot
Oh bang bang
Ten feet tall, laser eyes
Killer body, killer thighs
She drew me a fine line
Whats wrong whats right
I didnt know what to think
She seemed to know what to drink
I was stunned by her gun
Couldnt walk, couldnt run
Well she drew me a picture
And it seemed so true
Standing on the edge
And watching my life flash by
Standing on the edge
Shes lookin right through my eyes
Love is passin by
Right before my eyes
And Im wondering why
Whats the reason
That Im standing on the edge
Standing on the edge
Standing on the edge
Right here in my face
I had a vision
That was bigger than life
Oh connie likes nighttime, every night
Connie likes candy, every bite
All day sucker, connie might
Swallow that thing cause she does it right
Im weak in the knees
Im beggin you please
Just ask for more
She just wants affection
My soldiers at attention
No I dont know
Why youre doin this to me
Standing on the edge
And watching my life flash by
Standing on the edge
Shes lookin right through my eyes
Love is passin by
Right before my eyes
And Im wondering why
Whats the reason
That Im standing on the edge
Standing on the edge
Standing on the edge
Well she told me
In the biblical sense
And she told me
In the strictest confidence
She told me
We were worlds apart
She told me, she told me
I dont know why Im here
She said, dont be afraid
Standing on the edge
And watching my life flash by
Standing on the edge
Youre lookin right through my eyes
Standing on the edge
Light flashes before my eyes
Standing on the edge
And watchin my world crash by
Love is passing by
Right before my eyes
And I wonder why
Whats the reason
That Im standing on the edge
Standing on the edge
Standing on the edge
Standing on the edge
Standing on the edge
Standing on the edge
Im standing on the edge (repeat and fade)

Her Love Keeps Standing In The Way
I wanted to say goodbye,
for my love does not live here anymore,
but her love keeps standing in the way.
She tells me that she loves me
and that she’ll die if I ever go away.
I’ve made the decision,
I’ve got to stick to it if I can,
but her love keeps standing the way.
Maybe tomorrow might be the right time.
I don’t want to her to do
something foolish,
but I do not love her anymore.
There is no one else in my heart,
and I can’t go torturing my self
day after day,
but her love keeps stand in the way.
I’ll try to tell her tomorrow,
we cannot go on this way.
A one sided love
shouldn’t make someone stay.
I don’t mean to hurt her,
there is no one else in my life,
and there is a barrier I first must cross,
because her love keeps standing in the way.

In this world the gods have lost their way
Can't keep this picture from out of my mind
This fear hand in hand crossing innocence, time
Surrounding creation they caught in a trap
The youngest offenders will witness confusion
They driving so fast not a care in the end
Escaping collision every twist every bend
When you're young invincible nothing to lose
Keep seeing this picture standing in a circle
The gods have forgotten to switch on the light
Who's lost in the dark will crash in the night
These lessons we're living the lies of the day
Expect them to honor and never disobey
Yet greed is controlling the elders display
No wonder the younger look at them in shame
The spirit of survival
Who's teaching the hatred
The spirit of survival
Or the class of your school
The spirit of survival
The color of your money
We're standing in a circle
We don't understand at all
They don't understand at all
In this world I truly do believe there is a safer place
In this world I truly do believe there is a safer place
The younger the older the wiser become
Recover misfortune this true life as one
Our genius is shining the past has all gone
What's left is the clearest perception of one
The spirit of survival
To magnify the power
The spirit of survival
To magnify the soul
The spirit of survival
To magnify the love
We're standing in a circle
We don't understand at all
We don't understand at all

You know I can't explain this feeling
It's almost like I'm dreaming this reality
You know You give me such a freedom

Ever since the day I prayed

Every bit of me into Your hands

Nothing compares to having You near
Every day I'll love You more than the day before
With all of my heart

Standing There
STANDING THERE
Have you ever been strong
Have you ever known when it's time to walk away
Just walk away, yeah
Well i couldnt wait to see you
I was listening by the phone there
When you called
When you called and said what you said
All this time
All this time with the fighting and screaming
It's breaking me it's taken it's toll on me
And its like where standing there
Hand in hand
Just waiting for the ground to give way
Waiting for the right words to say
So take your chance
And don't hold back
Cause time is all we've got around here
Time for me to wake up and see you standing there
You're beautiful just standing there
Have you ever crossed the line
Cause theres nothing I wouldn't do for love
For this kind of love yeah
I'm trying to reach out
Trying to make you make you understand it
Understand the things that I'd like between you and me cause
All this time
All this time with the fighting and screaming
It's breaking me it's taken it's toll on me
And its like where standing there
Hand in hand
Just waiting for the ground to give way
Waiting for the right words to say

The silence that you speak
The lust within my dreams
And what I t says to me

As the sun retires
Our love will transpire
Make love to me

I see the sunshine
When I look into your eyes
They speak of worlds gone by
We loved another time
My heart was empty
Till you came to be
So come lay with me

Do You Have A Little Time
If you're feeling low and lost today
Probably doing too much again
Spend all your hours just rushing around
Do You Have A Little Time for me?
Slow down my love you're confusing me
If your feeling stressed just try calling
Spend your time waiting for anyone to see
Do you have a little time for me?
You should stop for a while
You will find me standing by
Over here beside of your light
I will hold you still, remind you of all you've missed
If you have time that is
Why do you still run when you could walk with me
Life will pass you by when you move to quickly
What can you see when spinning around
Do you have a little time for me
You should stop for a while
You will find me standing by
Over here beside of your life
I will hold you still, remind you of all you've missed
If you have time that is...
If you let me listen, I'll make you feel clear
And if you let me love you, I'll always be there
You take this one step closer to me, You'll see
When you stop for a while, you will find me standing by
over here, here in your life
I will hold you still , remind you of all you've missed
If you have time that is, when you have time that is

Oh, Brother
Im not much for making little wishes
But Id like a little wish to come true for you
Im not talking about loaves and fishes
But I wish that there was something I could do for you
Heres a little bit of cheap advice
To be taken in an hour of need
Dont assume that the life you left
Is the life you have to lead
(chorus)
When you come home what you gonna do
Oh brother, oh brother
Dont you try to deny
What you know to be true
The same mess of misery that you done been through
Standing in line
And its waiting for you
One kiss leads to another
Brother when you come back home
Id like to know whos knocking on door
Id like to know what they come here for
Youd like to say no
But the words wont come
Come in and sit down, seem to roll off your tongue
You forget to remember, to never die young
One kiss leads to another
Brother when you come back home
Standing in line, all of your friends
Standing in line, party never ends
Standing in line, the river flows, the river bends
Standing in line, all of your friends
- chorus -
And that moon will be
Shining in the trees
All night long
Something bound to happen for sure
Soon youll be
Stopping by talking to a friend again
Swear you aint never tasted nothing so pure
- chorus -
When you come home, your friends are dropping by
When you come home, the moon is gonna shine
When you come home, I tell you no lie
When you come home, theyre gonna offer you a line
Standing in line, all of your friends
Standing in line, party never ends now
Standing in line, the river flows, the river bends
Standing in line, all your so called friends
Standing in line, when you come home
Standing in line, oh brother, oh brother now
Standing in line, when you come home
Standing in line, what youre gonna do now
Standing in line...

The Woman I Love
I'm tired of foolin' around
I'm trying hard but I'm no Clark Gable
There's something I wanna say
Here are my cards on the table
The woman I love has eyes of blue
A face like heaven and a body like you
The woman I love is standing next to me
These words don't come easily
These words are a stranger in my town
But I am what I wanna be
Forget the high-brow here's the low-down
chorus x2
It's funny how it never seems
To be the time or place
I can tell it to the world
But I can't tell it to your face
I got a secret I don't want anymore
I'd tell you about it but I'm too damn yellow
What does it matter if you walk out that door
What's to lose baby What the hell
chorus x2
The woman I love is standing next to me
