Another Room
She's sleeping in another room and,
You're sleeping in anther room as well;
But, you people claimed to be married,
And like a river with a hanging bridge over it.
She can't bring her love to you because of this situation,
And, you can't bring your love to her because of that situation!
For, the walls have divided you people on this love.

Im sleeing in girls room
Im sleeping in the sky
Im sleeping in the water
Im sleeing in girls room

Here comes tiffany
My best friend, tiffany
Wearing a size too small of sweater
Me and tiffany
Dressing up pretty
We love to ride
We love to canter
My best friend tiffany
She is so popular
Were going from site to site and pool to pool tonight
And we hear terry say that tricias ok
But she ought to learn to shave her bikini line better
And tauren was born, like her mother, in a storm
And traceys been away forever

Id Rather Be Strong
(myles goodwyn)
Published by slalom publishing co. - bmi
Its a sad situation
Alot of hopeless information
On the news
Nothins gonna please you
And nothins gonna change
Well thats your view
So many hungry people
Its a shame and is it legal?
Well its a sight
Theres something goin on
Somethin we can change
And its our right
So Id rather be strong
In a hopeless situation, yes
I would rather be strong
In a hopeless situation, yes
I would rather be strong
In a hopeless situation
Yes I would, yes I would
Well you can say its a shame
And things remain the same
And so it goes
But no ones gonna hear you
And no ones gonna see
What doesnt show
Itd be cause for celebration
If only every nation understood
And helping one another
And doing for the other, what they could
And Id rather be strong
In a hopeless situation, yes
I would rather be strong
And to show determination, yes
I would rather be strong
In a hopeless situation
Yes I would, yes I would
Id be a lot better off if I could
Be part of the love
Thats seemingly lost from above
A delicate situation (situation)
Requires contemplation, everyone (everyone)
And someone has to care (someone to care)
When people live in fear of each mans son (each mans son)
So Id rather be strong
In a hopeless situation
Yes, I would rather be strong
In a hopeless situation
Yes, I would rather be strong
In a hopeless situation
Yes, I would, yes, I would
Id be a lot better off if I could
Be part of the love
Thats seemingly lost from above
Id rather be strong, ooh yes, I would
Well, Id rather be strong, yes I would, yes I would, yes I would
Well, Id rather be strong, ooh yes I would
Well, Id rather be strong, be strong, yes I would, yes I would
Well, Id rather be strong, yes I would
Well Id rather be strong, be strong, yes I would
In a hopeless situation
Yes, I would rather be strong
In a hopeless situation, yes
I would rather be strong
In a hopeless situation
Yes, I would rather be strong
In a hopeless situation, yes
I would rather be strong

Blues Run The Game
Catch a boat to england, baby
Maybe to spain
Wherever I have gone
Wherever Ive been and gone
Wherever I have gone, the blues Id to sing
Go bring me whiskey, baby
Go bring me gin
Me and room service, honey
Me and room service
Me and room service, well were living like a sin
When Im not drinking, baby
You are on my mind
When Im not sleeping
When Im not sleeping
When Im not sleeping, well you know, you'll find me crying
Try another city, baby
Try another town
Wherever I have gone
Wherever Ive been and gone
Wherever I have gone, the blues run the game
Well maybe someday, baby
Somewhere down the line
I'll wake up older, honey
So much older
I'll wake up older and just stop all my trying
Catch a boat to england, baby
Maybe to spain
Wherever I have gone
Wherever Ive been and gone
Wherever I have gone, the blues run the game

Shadowlands
God, please bring the rain
Yeah, and bring it soon
Let it flood right through the houses
Into Judy's room
With a father on amphetamines
Her mother hides the pearls
Reach out into the darkness
And find my little girl
'Cause she's angry like a salesman
That couldn't make a sale
Threw her wedding ring in the sewer
And damned them all to hell
Please lead her to the mountain
That you fashioned out of sand
While the roaches climb the walls
From the hotel where he calls
Most people never find a love
Most people never find a love
Sometimes you just can be a man
Sometimes you just can be a man
When your living in the darkness
Of the shadowlands
The shadowlands

If I Have Told You Before
People are sleeping with people's wives and they say it is love,
People are flirting around and they say it is love,
But try to look around you and see whether it is love;
For anytime i call for one, another do fall.
If i have told you before,
Ypou could have learnt from your mistakes,
So judge the things around you and see whether they are right;
for i am a man with the pen and i do write of all the things around me.
Beware of yesterday because it is full of the sadness of the past!
And do tell me how you felt after looking around you;
If i have told you before you would not have believed it,
But these are mere flirts among us.
Like the sleeper,
They always go around looking for more;
But i think the apple didn't fall far from the tree,
But somebody rather did pluck it!
Why be in a hurry my friend? !
But when people are almost naked,
They say that it is beautiful;
All in the name a modern state of mind.
But who will wear the crown when,
You are sleeping around with somebody's wife?
Yes life is for a passion but,
Sleeping with somebody's wife isn't the answer.

If Im Sleeping
I saw you cross the crowded room, you were lookin my way
I dont believe in lady luck, or what the cards portray
But I could see your shining light, and Im in disarray
Chorus:
If Im sleeping, dont wake me up, if Im sleeping
If Im sleeping, dont wake me up, if Im sleeping
I thought Id better break the ice, and started moving your way
I lost direction, the room got crowded, so I must have gone astray
I still dont know how it happened, theres only me to blame
Chorus
I dont understand it, what is happening, what is happening
Its not the way we planned it, what is happening, take it away
(solo)
I dont understand it, what is happening, what is happening
Its not the way we planned it, what is happening, so take it away
Chorus
If Im sleeping, dont wake me up, if Im sleeping, leave me alone
If Im sleeping, if Im sleeping, why dont you leave me alone...

The Root Of Evil
The root of all evil
Has me negatively
interacting with people
I can't figure out the reason
People are just soo greedy
And when it comes to money
Why are they soo needy
Its always the people who
Don't need it chasing it the most
Life is funny without money
You notice things you wouldnt
If you had money
People are brain washed
Thinking that pieces of paper
Can bring you life long forfillment
But Materials will never bring enjoyment
Money can't and won't buy
Love
Happyness
Or health
Wealth
Only brings
Decite
Evil
Jealousy
Envy
And a negative situation
The bottom line is this
Money can't buy you happyness
The happyness starts within you

Love Is Only Sleeping
She looked at me
And the emptiness in her eyes was cruel to see
Then she turned away and said,
Once I loved, but love is dead
And I whispered, sometimes love is only sleeping
She said, I cannot cry
And I cannot give or feel or even try
And her voice was hard and cold
Then her sweet young face looked old
And I whispered, sometimes love is only sleeping
Through the endless days and nights
Could not help but wrap herself in sorrow (sorrow)
Through the endless days and nights
She waited for a shiny new tomorrow
Love was sleeping, sleeping
She looked at me
And her smiling tears were warm and sweet and free
And the moonlight kissed her eyes
As it mingled with our sighs
And she whispered, sometimes love is only sleeping
And she whispered, sometimes love is only sleeping
Only sleeping...

Only Love Can Conquer All
(narada michael walden/s.j.dakota/p.glass)
They tell us its better
That people should stay with their own kind
Divided by colour, afraid to be hurt by the other (yeah)
What if we try talking
Well see were the same on the inside
Cant let it, cant let hatred rule
Let your love in
Only love can conquer all
Only love can break down the walls
Only love can conquer all
Only love (only love)
Only love (only love)
Oh yeah
The wheel keeps, keeps on turning
We pass all our fears to our children
Rule the playground
The lines are all drawn into colours (yes)
What if we, we try harder
What if we reach out to each other (to each other)
Cant let it, cant let hatred rule
Let your love in
Let your love in
Only love can conquer all
Only love can break down the walls
Only love can conquer all
Only love (only love)
Only love (only love)
Oh yeah
Only love can conquer all
Only love can break down these walls
Only love can conquer all
Only love (only love)
Only love (only love)
Only love

Only love

Only only only
Only love

Missing You My Love
Staring at the four walls in my room,
Feeling the emptiness and voidness,
Impulses travel throughout my veins,
The agony of a lonely man,
This room so quiet and empty
Missing you
Holding a red rose in my hand,
Smelling it without feeling the scent,
Holding your picture in my hand,
Loving you without doubt,
My hands are delicate and cold,
Missing you my love
Sleeping in my sheets alone,
Closing my eyes seeing you in,
Openning them seeing you out,
My pillow is hard, my sheets metalic,
Im missing you my love
Do you feel like i feel,
Or enslaved by love is only me,
Come along my lover,
Missing you my love

Sleeping In The Middle Of The Bed Again
Call it a love song,
Howl like a newborn.
Trying hard to stay warm.
..............
Edition to apocalypse,
Looking for the big hit,
..............
..............
Time after time,
I blow me away...
Sign on the streets now,
Running on the .... now.
Winters here I believe its here to stay.
I read somewhere that religion is for people
Who want to stay out of hell.
I was praying for a sign or a vision or a message
Til you been there you wont get well.
I was sitting in a room, I never recognized it
For the picture before my eyes.
I was sleeping in the middle of the bed again,
Im not sure this qualifies.
Lost in a crosswalk,
Battle on the half ....
Calling cause I cant talk,
Trying til the fire caught up with me.
Flashing like a neon,
Noisy as an a-bomb.
Looking to the beyond,
Staring and laughing at eternity.
Time after time,
I blow me away,
Time on the street now.
Run like I pray now.
Winters here I believe its here to stay.
I read somewhere that religion is for people
Who want to stay out of hell.
I was praying for a sign or a vision or a message
Til you been there you wont get well.
I was sitting in a room,
I never recognized it for the picture before my eyes.
I was sleeping in the middle of the bed again,
Im not sure this qualifies.
I read somewhere that religion is for people,
Who swear they need to be saved.
Im sleeping in the middle of the bed again,
You can trust me I will be brave.

All In The Name Of Love
(coverdale/vandenberg)
Some people tell me
The blues aint bad,
But, Ive never know anything
Make me feel so sad...
Running on empty, hurting to the core,
When everything dont mean nothing any more...
From a distance
Every little thing looks fine,
But, the closer you get
You see the make up,
Cracked and lined...
Somewhere theres a rainbow
With a pot of gold,
But, by the time you get there
Its been taken and sold...
So I keep saying, baby...
All in the name of love,
Its all in the name of love, my friend,
All in the name of love
We all suffer in the end...
In my room
There are no shadows in the wall,
cause I closed up the window
So no light gets in at all.
Its a bad situation,
With no end in sight,
A heartache deep as the ocean
And darker than the night...
So I keep saying to you, baby,
All in the name of love,
Its all in the name of love, my friend,
All in the name of love
We all suffer in the end...
With no one to lean on
You pray to the lord above,
But, we keep hurting each other
In the name of love...
All in the name of love...
With no one to lean on
You pray to the lord above,
But, we keep hurting each other
In the name of love...
All in the name of love,
Its all in the name of love, my friend,
All in the name of love
We all suffer in the end...
All in the name of love,
Its all in the name of love, my friend,
All in the name of love
We all suffer in the end...
All in the name of love...

Morale... Youve Lost That Loving Feeling
Dont talk
Close the door
Youve been here before
Your shape dim
Im an old man now
The airs thin
The walls very damp now
And if I dont go
Ill always be stuck here in this poor little room
With a view of the corner
I dont forget
The light growing weak now
Experience is useless
Unless you can learn
And Ive never met anyone
Who used their knowledge
To avoid those mistakes made again and again
And if I dont go
Ill always be stuck here in this poor little room
With a view of the corner
You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips
And theres no tenderness like before in your fingertips
Youre trying hard not to show it (baby)
But baby, baby I know it
Youve lost that loving feeling
Woah, that loving feeling
Youve lost that loving feeling
Now its gone, gone, gone
Woah-woah
Now theres no welcome look in your eyes when I reach for you
And girl youre starting to criticise little things I do
It makes me just feel like crying (baby)
cos, baby, something beautifuls dying
Youve lost that loving feeling
Woah, that loving feeling
Youve lost that loving feeling
Now its gone, gone, gone
Woah-woah
Baby, baby, Id get down on my knees for you
If you would only love me like you used to do, yeah
We had a love, a love, a love you dont find every day
So dont, dont, dont, dont let it slip away
Bring back that loving feeling
Woah, that loving feeling
Bring back that loving feeling
Now its gone, gone, gone
And I cant go on
Baby (baby), baby (baby)
I want you please (woooo)
Please (woooo)
I need your love (I need your love)
I need your love (I need your love)
Now it bring it on back (bring it on back
) bring it on back now (bring it on back now)
Now bring it on back

This Room
Your sweet smell of an aroma is all over this room and,
You are the river flowing into my heart;
And like the cocoa from Ivory Coast with a sweet taste,
You are all that i need in this room.
Come and make love to me and,
Let me bear you children;
For your sweet smell of an aroma is all over this room.
This room is made for you and i,
This room will surely take us to the skies!
For you love is the only one needed in this room.

That Tryst Worth Forgetting
i see you
and you follow me
my gaze tells you,
inside my room where i have been all alone,
where my loneliness is killing me,
you know what i want, you have a heart,
i need love, more love, and you know it,
and you follow me inside my room, as i undress myself,
and you understand, my thirst and my hunger, my longing and my pain,
and you undress yourself,
and you touch my face, and i touch yours, and then i kiss you
and you smile, and you wipe away my fears, and then we make love
throughout the night, and the morning after, i still see you sleeping, and i leave you a note, (and some money too) , i know, it will be the last, since deep within,
i found no love from you.

Did I? If So I Am Author
Did I inspire
Did I open ones eyes
Did I make you cry
Did I bring a smile to your face.
Did I befuddle, bamboozled, and confuse
Did I scare, and bring utter fear
Did I bring awkwardness straight to your living room
Did I bring with my own words a story, a thought, a moment in time, people, places

Homeless
Homeless;
- Down by the muddy Mississippi
Skinny as a rail,
Sleeping under the old Eads bridge
Feeling low, dirty, and frail -
Homeless;
- With less than two coins
In both pockets,
Empty eyes
Look through sunken sockets -
Homeless;
- So many people walk right on by
I wonder how many care,
They all keep moving
Even though they stare -
Homeless;
- Lost a job
Lost a home,
Lost a family
Lost all hope -
Homeless;
- Where will I go from here
What should I do,
I'm so thankful when the weather's fair
And the skies are blue -
Homeless;
- Don't know the day nor season
And, yea, it sure gets cold at night,
I've got an old sleeping bag
I'll be alright -
Homeless;
- There's so many of us out here
Without a home,
Even so
I feel so very alone -
Homeless;
- It's a tough situation
Not pretty, just true,
And at any time
It could happen to you -
Homeless;
- Hey buddy...
Could you spare a dime,
And say a prayer for us
... sometime -
- I'm just homeless, not less human...
