Experience
Some men break your heart in two,
Some men fawn and flatter,
Some men never look at you;
And that cleans up the matter.

About A Heart
there's a doubt in my heart
and it's sinking deep inside of me
it's the way that you talk
it's in the way you're touching me
when i look into your eyes
you're a million miles away from me
and there's nothing i can do
there's nothing left to say
you'll break my heart, there's nothing left to say
you'll break my heart,there's nothing i can do
you'll break my heart...
rip it off and watch it fall..
will you go - will you stay
is there any chance for me to keep you here
by my side - or is my fate already sealed
is there anybody else
or am i still the only one
if it's so then i don't care
just waiting for the blow to come
you see, there's nothing i can do
you'll break my heart (in any case) there's nothing left to say
(you'll break my heart...)
rip it off and watch it fall...
you'll break my heart, there's nothing left to say
you'll break my heart,there's nothing i can do
you'll break my heart, rip it off, rip it off
you'll break my heart...

The Cleaning Operations
Ash cleans brass and acid, copper.
Trees clean air and the flow, water.
Menses cleans woman and sex, man.
Mind! Cleaning is not preventing.

Don't Break My Heart
You shoot me down in flames
You put me down a lot
But I'm giving you my heart
Go on take it
Please be careful not to break it
Just remember it's the only one I've got
It's the only one I've
Chorus
Don't break my heart
You make me laugh a lot
And buy me silly things
And I'd rather be with you than anyone else
But if you make me mad
But if you make me mad
You'll wish that you had not
You'll wish that you had not
Chorus
Don't break my heart
Where are the roses and whispered sighs
Where are the compliments and dreaming eyes
It doesn't matter you see
I know you love me
And real basic love never dies
Chorus
Don't break my heart

The Heart of the Matter Is the Heart (Poverty)
My three bed two bath mansion, Cal's old cardboard box
The heart of the matter is the heart
My steak and lobster bisque, Cal's lunch meat sandwich stuff
The heart of the matter is the heart
My wool suits and shiny ties, Cal's best thrift store threads
The heart of the matter is the heart
My nice convertible coupe, Cal's broken and rusted bike
The heart of the matter is the heart
So many with so little, So many with so much
The heart of the matter is MY heart

If He Should Break Your Heart
Please be wrong
Please dont tell me its really you
Tell me eyes... tell my heart what Im goin through
I believed, I believed I was over you
If he should break your heart
Ill always know where you are
If you should fall... apart
Ill be there, Ill be around
If he should break... your heart
Ill be there
Is this right
I dont care Im alone with you
Here we are, once again youve got someone new
Lonely hands, please dont do what you wanna do
If he should break your heart
Ill always know where you are
If you should fall... apart
Ill be there, Ill be around
If he should break... your heart
From my soul I say... good-bye yesterday
One more night alone, without the touch... of you
Then I start to break... is it my mistake
Tell me am I wrong... for holdin on... to you
If he should break your heart
Ill always know where you are
If you should fall... apart
Ill be there, Ill be around
If he should break you heart, Ill be there
If he should break your, if he should break your
If he should break your heart
Ill be there, Ill be around

Change Of Heart
(olivia newton-john/jim brickman)
I feel that Im at a crossroads
I dont know which way to go
You say that I am changing
Into someone that you dont know
Who I am
And who Ill be
Is locked inside
Inside of me
And if I follow my heart
Will you still be my friend if we break apart?
How do I make
How will you take my change of heart?
For years you have been my best friend
I thought that would always be
You know that I just cant pretend
Its written all over me
Cause where Ill go
And what Ill do
I just cant see my life without you
If I follow my heart
Will you still be my friend if we break apart?
How do I make
How will you take my change of heart?
Moving on
Its going take some time
When Im gone
You might have a change of mind
Gotta take the chance
No matter what I find
No matter how far I travel
I think of you as home
Its not about finding someone else
Its all about being alone
Cause who I am
And who Ill be
Is locked inside
Inside of me
Cause if I follow my heart
Will you still be my friend if we break apart?
How will I make
How will you take my change of heart?
How will you take
My change of heart?

My Heart Has A Mind Of Its Own
(howard greenfield, jack keller)
I told this heart of mine
Our love would never be
But then I hear a voice
And something stirs inside of me
Somehow I cant resist
The memory of your kiss
I guess my heart has a mind of its own
No matter what I do
No matter what I say
No matter how I try
I just cant turn the other way
When Im with someone new
I always think of you
I guess my heart has a mind of its own
Youre not in love with me
So why cant I forget
Im just your used to be
Its wrong and yet
I know forgetting you
Would be a hopeless thing
For Im a puppet
And I just cant seem to break the strings
I say Ill let you go
But then my heart says no
I guess my heart has a mind of its own
I guess my heart has a mind of its own

How Do I Survive
How Do I Survive if you break my heart
I'm not strong enough
Just to smile and make things easy
I can't put on my brave face anymore
I always took it for granted
That I could take whatever you gave me
I guess you never really know for sure
'Cause there was never a doubt in mind
How it was meant to be
So who do I turn to darlin' if you should leave
How do I survive if you break my heart
How do I survive if you break my heart
I've got no excuses for bein' your fool
I never thought that it would be forever
But after so much time together
I've come to depend on you
What else am I supposed to do
'Cause there was never a doubt in mind
It wouldn't be easy
But I never realized how much you mean to me, ho
How do I survive if you break my heart
How do I survive if you break my heart
break
But there was never a doubt in mind
How it was meant to be
So who do I turn to darlin' if you should leave
How do I survive if you break my heart
How do I survive if you break my heart (How do I survive)
How do I survive if you break my heart (If you break my heart)
How do I survive if you break my heart (whooh, whooh)
How do I survive if you break my heart (How do I survive)
How do I survive if you break my heart (whooh,whooh)
How do I survive if you break my heart

Break Down And Let It All Out
Break down and let it all out
Break down and let it all out
I've held back my tears
Just as long as I could
But now my eyes can see
It's all over for you and me
And holding back ain't gonna do no good
I'm gonna break down and let it all out
Break down and let it all out
I've hidden my heart too many times before
Now my aching heart knows that we're apart
And I can't hide it anymore
So I'm gonna break down and let it all out
Break down and let it all out
I remember when you used to love me and oh how sweet it was...
but it's not enough just to remember, 'cause
what good is the past?
once upon a time...
All those old memories can set my heart at ease
So before I loose my mind...yeah
I'm gonna break down and let it all out
Break down and let it all out
My eyes are open and now I see it's all over for you and me
Break down and let it all out
Break down and let it all out
Now my aching heart knows that we're apart
Break down and let it all out
Break down and let it all out
All those old memories can set my heart at ease
Break down and let it all out
Break down and let it all out...

Fawn Ghazal
Inside a snowy blanket which put the trees to sleep,
I heard a fawn.
Out past the window's ice coat in the morning, I
found a sleeping fawn.
There are men in yellow kitchens watching hands of
brown-eyed women
while men in orange jackets dream in secret, of
capturing a fawn.
When I was younger I was taught, but have forgotten,
sweet timidity.
When I am older I will learn, by necessity, the
light-footedness of fawns.
Someone left a lily on my doorstep, eggshell white
with speckled leaves;
the card of introduction said the flower's name was
Fawn.
Sages wonder if it's possible for men to turn to
animals.
I wonder if they've pondered the agility of fawns.

Born To Break My Heart
(carly simon)
You were born to break
You were born to break
You were born to break my heart
The same kitchen, the same eyes
The same reaction to the same lies
It was not so long ago,
A most auspicious start
And only now I know
You were born to break my heart
Born to break my heart...
guilt trip,? i can hear you say
get a grip girl, youve lost your way
You dont begin to understand
I guess its time we part
And don;t be usin? that old cliche:
you were born to break my heart?
You were born to break my heart?
No wonder we looked like the perfect couple
It was brilliantly conceived
It seems I have a yen to lose
And you cant pass up the perfect
Chance to leave
The same plot, the same rain
Just as stubborn as a fool
Youd think I might get smart
But here I am, cursed, to seek love again
>from yet another cold heart
You were born to break my heart,
Born to break my heart

The Swan And The Fawn
Finely Freckled Fawn called to Suave, Stately Swan,
“Please help me quickly. I need you to come on.
When I took a drink in the pond, what did I see?
But a poor little fawn drowning who looked just like me.”
Sir Swan explained “Be calm my dear and listen here.
It’s only your reflection.” he explained with affection.
“Each time you take a drink just think how you can smile,
As that pretty face looking at you is happy all the while.”
“Oh thank you Sir Swan.” said the grateful Freckled Fawn.
“All my fears and all my tears from now on will be gone.
Suave, Stately Swan and Finely Freckled Fawn are friends
Because of thoughtfulness and gratitude upon which friendship depends.

Final Attraction
Well, here you are, the final attraction
Awaiting direction
>From somewhere above
Your finest performance
Approaching perfection
I know what you're making
It's some kind of love
Somewhere in your lifetime
You were dared into feeling
So many emotions that tear you apart
But they loved you so badly
For sharin' their sorrow
So pick up that guitar
And go break a heart
You can do it one more time, son, we're with ya
Pick up that guitar
Go break a heart
You can do it this time just for Hank Williams, can't ya?
Go break a heart
Maybe one time for Otis Redding
Go break a heart
And one time for Janis Joplin
Yeah, that's right. Go break a heart
O.K. Yeah, One more time for James Dean
Go Break a Heart
God bless George Jones
Go Break a Heart
And maybe one time for me
Go break a heart

The Heart Of The Matter
Real love is the only thing I know
Teh changes of everything at touches
It gets you and its gentle clutches
But thats not really the heart of the matter
Everbody, every now and then
Well say that they can use
Some side of two
Even though youre setting
Kind of roam
Thats not really the heart of the matter
I think Im really the heart of the matter
Isnt it natural going away to think Ill be alone
I think of you
Your love for me is gone
I think thats really the heart of the matter after all
Darling, I know every now and then
Some nights I lay really easy on my mind
You might hold your billow in my cry
Thats not the heart of the matter

Unconditional Love
I'll always be here for you
Even if you're not for me
If you knock me down
I'll get back up and let it be
If you make me bleed
I'll still hug you when cry
If you break my heart
No doubt for you i would still die
If you kick me when i'm down
I'll still be here for you
No matter what you say
And no matter what you do
In my heart you can do no wrong
Cos i'll still love you
If somebody loves you
They will always love you
I will i swear

To Mary
I seem, in the midst of the crowd,
The lightest of all;
My laughter rings cheery and loud,
In banquet and ball.
My lip hath its smiles and its sneers,
For all men to see;
But my soul, and my truth, and my tears,
Are for thee, are for thee!
Around me they flatter and fawn—
The young and the old.
The fairest are ready to pawn
Their hearts for my gold.
They sue me—I laugh as I spurn
The slaves at my knee;
But in faith and in fondness I turn
Unto thee, unto thee!

Heartbreak Hotel

This is the heart break hotel
This is the heart break hotel

This is the heart break hotel
This is the heart break hotel
This is the heart break hotel
This is the heart break hotel
This is the heart break hotel
You said youd be here by nine
Instead you took your time
You didnt think to call me, boy
Here I sit trying not to cry
Asking myself why
You do this to me, mm oh baby
Since youre not around
For me to tell ya baby, face to face
Im writing you this letter
And this is what I have to say
1 - all I really wanted was some of your time
Instead you told me lies
When someone else was on your mind
What you do to me
Look what you did to me
I thought that you were someone
Who would do me right
Until you played with my emotions
And you made me cry
What you do to me
Cant take what you did to me
Now I see that youve been doin wrong
Played me all along
And made a fool of me, baby
You got it all wrong
To think that I wouldnt find out
That you were cheating on me, baby
How could you do it to me
Since youre not around
For me to tell ya baby, face to face
Im writing you this letter
And this is what I have to say
Repeat 1
