The Element of Surprise

Pregnant, anxious, but waiting patiently
every mother to be knows the thrill.
Feeling signs of life inside,
sometimes worried if it's still.

The feel of a foot or hiccups inside
gives a special joy.
You think to yourself, 'WOW, that was strong'
Must be a baby boy.

You lie uncomfortably in the night
with visions of pink or blue.
You think of names for either sex
wondering which one will do?

Well that's how it used to be before
the sonogram's prying eyes.
Now I'm sure it's used to detect something wrong,
but it takes away the element of surprise.

I remember asking what did I have?
I waited for the doctor's reply.
Today most mothers know the sex.
They just want to hear the cry.

And so I'm glad mine were born
before the sonogram was here.
For the sex of the baby that I'd just birthed
I could not wait to hear.

Baby Love

Whoa whoa...you you yeah.
Whoa whoa...yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. whoa!
Seen your picture.
Called your name.
Cover story teenage magazine.
Wish I could phone you.
Wish you well.
And tell our secrets like we used to tell.
My baby love.
Do you remember me?
My baby love.
I remember.
Baby love.
Do you remember me?
My baby love.
Ummmmm
Youre a star now.
Celebrity.
Have you forgotten how it used to be?
Wed play doctor
In the sand.
Do you remember back in childhood land?
Wish I could hold you
In my arms.
I miss your candy kisses and your charms.
Nobody loves you
The way I do.
Ill never find another girl like you.
My baby love.
Do you remember me?
My baby love.
I remember.
Baby love.
Do you remember me?
My baby love.
Ummmmm
When Im lonely,
I can hear your voice inside,
Inside, cant hide.
And when I look up
Youre not anywhere.
I love you. you know it.
Wish that I could show it to
You you you.
My baby love.
Do you remember me?

Its You

I look inside my crystal ball of desire
And know why rapid beats my heart
I see the spark, I feel the flame of the fire
Letting me know love wants to start
No more playing around
No more waiting around for the special one to come
No more wearing a frown
No more tears coming down cause I know what I want
And I want what I know
Is you
Nobody has to tell me so
Its you, its you, youre the angel sent from heaven above
Its you, nobody has to tell me so
Its you, youre that angel sent from heaven above for me
(background-me for you and you for me)
If only I had not waited I would have picked the wrong one
If only I had not waited my life would be undone
If only I had not waited I woul have picked the wrong one
If only I had not waited for you (harmonica solo)
I look behind and what I sight is the mire
So very lonely was my heart
I look ahead I hear the sound of the choir
Singing that love will never part
No more hearing the sound of the rain coming down
No more I cant see the sun
No more hurting for fun cause the moment has come
When I know what I want
And I want what I know
Is you
Nobody has to tell me so
Its you, youre the angel sent from heaven above
Its you, nobody has to tell me so
Its you, youre that angel sent from heaven above for me
(background-me for you and you for me)
If only I had not waited I would have picked the wrong one
If only I had not waited my life would be undone
If only I had not waited I would have picked the wrong one
If only I had not waited for you
cause baby
Its you
Nobody has to tell me so
Its you, youre the angel sent from heaven above
Its you, nobody has to tell me so
Its you, youre that angel sent from heaven above for me
(background-me for you and you for me)
If only I had not waited I would have picked the wrong one
If only I had not waited my life would be undone
If only I had not waited I would have picked the wrong one
If only I had not waited for you
cause baby
Its you
Nobody has to tell me so
Its you, youre the angel sent from heaven above
Its you, nobody has to tell me so
Its you, youre that angel sent from heaven above for me
(background-me for you and you for me)
If only I had not waited I would have picked the wrong one
If only I had not waited my life would be undone
If only I had not waited I would have picked the wrong one
If only I had not waited for you
cause baby its you

Dont Stop The Night

Here is today , Im feelin blue
Its saturday night , Im waiting for you
You said youd come round at eight-thirtyfour
With some other guy , you pass by my door
I thought you were good , I felt you were real
A special kind of girl
So I walk down the street , into the town
Im followin you and ya new love around
You said to go back to where I belong
That she didnt care and I was so wrong
Forever I know I will never let go
till shes mine , m-i-i-ine
Baby , believe what you like , dont stop the night
Baby , believe what you like , dont stop the night
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Make up my mind , Im gonna be strong
Dont wanna look sad if she comes along
She may be with him but Ill play along
Ive waited all year , the night is so young
Love is like a miracle , a distant shining light
So many days I would hope and pray
She was mine , m-i-i-ine
Baby , believe what you like , dont stop the night
Baby , believe what you like , dont stop the night
Baby , you said youd never go
And now , you dont wanna know
Baby , you know just what you found
Someone whos only hangin round
Baby , believe what you like , dont stop the night
Baby , believe what you want , dont stop the night
Baby , I know that you dont , youd never leave
Baby , I know .... (fade out)

Mother; it was all a white lie

How do I look? ’ says mother just before she goes out
I reply ‘wow amazing’ mother smiles
But if only she knew it was a white lie
I would hurt her deep inside

Mother says ‘which dress looks better’
I chose red, although I didn’t like neither
Mother reply’s ‘I’m glad you like it ‘, I reply ‘like it? I love it! ’ Yes I lied I genuinely disliked it!
Mother giggles but what she doesn’t realise it’s apart of my game just not as obvious as a riddle.

Mother is on a diet and works so hard to stick to it
Mother asks me ‘have I reduced weight a little bit? ’
I reply ‘a little bit? ’ you’ve lost so much that you’re starting to look like a stick!
Mother giggles and cuddles me; see this is why I lie because I make her feel so valuable and happy!

When mother was pregnant she looked big as ever! Mother asks’ ‘do I look big? ’ I reply look big? Never! Yes I lied to make her feel better!
I wanted her to feel cool about herself just like the breeze in the Lebanese weather
Although she was awfully big, I made her feel light as a feather!

Father is home late; mother is worried, she asks me if I think he’s ok
I reply ‘of course he is’ she smiles and gives me a kiss
Although I was also afraid and wanted to ask mother the same
I kept her calm by putting on a brave face

Mother says ‘I have a surprise for you in the boot’
I opened it and bless mother; she had bought me new shoes,
Mother says ‘like the shoes? ’ I reply ‘of course I do’ but if only she knew,
I would hurt her in the count of two!

Want You

It's just the way I want you baby
Oh so bad
It's just the feeling that comes over me

I had a crush on you
Painstakingly I
Would conceal the truth
You probably always knew
But I was timid like a child
Inhibited and way too shy
I'd glance but then avert my eyes
All twisted up in my desire
But I am not that girl today
Ain't a lot of time for games
I've waited and I've waited now
It's time for me to tell you
'Bout the way

It's just they way I want you baby
Oh so bad
Every night and everyday
Must we hesitate
It's just the feeling that comes over me
I cannot alleviate
Please don't make me wait
It's just the way I want you baby
Oh so bad
Every night and everyday

Baby I
Was so into you
Now I wonder why
I never pursued
You the way I wanted to

Kiss me and touch me and
I'mmerse your love in mine
I'll keep unraveling
As we explore our fantasies tonight
(Tell me what you like)
(Now show me what you like)

It's just the way I want you baby
So bad
Every night and everyday
Must we hesitate
It's just the feeling that comes over me
I cannot alleviate
Please don't make me wait

I Hear A Symphony

Your givin me true love
And everyday I thank the lord
For a feeling thats so new
So inviting so exciting
Whenever your near
I hear a symphony
A tender melody
Pulling me closer, closer to your arms
Then suddenly your lips are touching mine
A feeling so divine, still I need a path because
Im lost in a world
Made for you and me
Oooh...
Baby, baby
I hear a symphony
Ooooh... baby
Whenever your near
I hear a symphony
Played sweet and tenderly
Everytime your lips meet mine, my baby
Baby, baby
I feel the joy begin
Dont let this feeling end
Let it go on and on and on now baby
Baby, baby
Those tears that filled my eyes
I cried not for myself
But for those who have never felt the joy of love
Baby, baby
Whenever your near
I hear a symphony
Each time you speak of me
I hear a tender note so sweet of love
Baby, baby
As you stand there holding me
Whispering how much you care
A thousand violins fill the air, now
Baby, baby
Dont let this moment end
Keep standing close to me
So close to me my baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby
I hear a symphony
A tender melody
I hear a symphony

The world will say you my wife

Seeing you my dear!
My eyes forget all other sights,
Feeling you inside me
I just start flying in the sky.
You are so! you are as such!
I cant stop loving you much
O my dear! night spend in sighs
Days seeing you pass on and on
I want you baby! I need you!
You are my fuel, come to me soon.
The way you provide me pleasure these days
I just say completely you are mine
The more I write, the lesser it will be,
I want the palace, our dwelling place be,
I love the way you see me! the love you provide
Is infiniteless! no meter can measure that
I become restless when you are not before my eyes
Only your presence bring me back into life
Baby! Please say you are mine! I am craving
To hear this from your mouth! thus your lips
On your every glance my heart slips
For you only the beating takes place inside me
Clear I do now just you are here only
In whose absence my heart and me feel lonely
My heart! I don't know anyone than you
Waiting for the moment you will enter my life
As my part and world will say you my wife

Baby Blue

Lie alone in bed at night
Feel the pull of a lonely day
Thoughts like music start to play
I wonder where you were today
(baby blue)
Baby baby blue
Baby blue eyes I dream of you
Late at night
When the whole worlds sleeping
I dream of you
Close to you I feel your sweet heart beating
I dream of you
Late at night late at night
Honey late at night I dream of you
I dream of you
Baby baby blue
Baby blue eyes I love you new
I hold you in my dreams tonight
Hold you til morning light

Baby blue eyes I dream of you

The baby will never cry

I was waiting for this tomorrow
Since I knew the meaning of woman..
But today I feel it would have been better
If I was born in this world not as human…

From tomorrow I will be known as a mother
I will be able to feed my milk to my baby….
But the baby won’t be able to enjoy mother’s milk
As doctor said my baby is not like any other baby…

Tomorrow I will become a mother
A mother who will deliver a baby
The baby who will never be able to see this world
The baby who will never cry after delivery..

Little Pearl And Lily's Lullaby

(Baby crying)
When I heard the news,
There'll be baby shoes,
Waiting and wondering pink or blue,
Either gonna be a little me or you,
If I can see inside heaven knows we've tried,
Looking though the belly on a TV screen,
Don't have to tell me what her heartbeat means.
Chorus:
There's only one other who can love this girl like me
The mother of the finest little pearl in any sea.
April shower brings, lots of tiny things,
Lily's getting bigger every single day,
Gonna paint these Flowers, gonna wait 'til May,
Had to dry my eyes, writing lullaby's
I'm gonna sing her every song I know
Got to get ready for a whole new show.
'Cause I know ole father time's not wasting me,
With a brand new tiny little branch on the family tree.
--- Instrumental ---
Barely time to choose, all the Baby shoes,
No more wondering pink or blue,
She gonna be a little me and you,
Now I have her mind full of nursery rhymes,
Old Mother Goose, Little Bo Peep
Call Dr. Seuss to put her right to sleep.
Chorus:
There's only one other who can love this girl like me
The mother of the finest little pearl in any sea.
That is what she is to me.
(Baby giggles)
Go to sleep my darling, sandman is calling,
Where the stars are gleaming, you will be dreaming
Go to sleep my darling, sandman is calling,
We will be waiting for your love and adore you
Go to sleep my darling, sandman is calling,
Where the angels guide you to the dreams inside you
Go to sleep my darling, sandman is calling,
Holding all your moonbeam, join me in my dreams...

Night after Night

Night after night

I lay here night after night
I lay here as the rain pours or when the sun shines
I lay here as the weather gets colder, or when it’s summer
I lay here as the leaves change their colors, or when the snow covers
I lay here in my memories
I lay here wondering how long has it been since I passed by
I wonder how long since it has made you cry
I remember waking up to the darkness
I remember being put down inside where it was cold inside
Wondering why did I let life pass me by
I remember hearing the clock ticked my life away
I remember no one crying over me
I remember never saying goodbye
I remember wanting you to say I am sorry
I remember wanting you there by my side
I remember waiting to hear your voice one last time
As I lay there, as one by one my family, and friends comes to say goodbye one last time
I remember crying how you could not say goodbye
So night after night I lay here waiting
For you to come and say I am sorry or at least tell me goodbye
So I was not perfect, I had my flaws
But last I heard I was your every thing
So I guess I was wrong

Wait

Maurice white, david foster & allee willis
Ive been waiting so long,
Just watching the phone, for you.
To wait, it takes,
Love thats for real
And all, that I feel, inside to do.
I come prepared, to look in your eyes
And walk side by side,
With you--baby, baby.
Listen for tender words, Id like to say
Like I love you today, and Ill wait
For you.
Chorus
Its crazy, if you think, were just friends.
Loving when, infatuation ends.
The wait for you, baby it now begins.
You sigh, when I come close to your heart.
You cry, from the start,
Please wait for me.
Your mind, shows, places you go,
And things you dont know.
Someday youll grow.
Climbing a moutain high,
Your love I desire.
Inside my heart cries for you.
Chorus
Baby, were more, than friends--
I know, the wait will end ./.

Baby What A Big Surprise

Right before my very eyes
I thought that you were only fakin it
And like before my heart was takin it
Baby what a big surprise
Right before my very eyes
Yesterday it seemed to me
My life was nothing more than wasted time
But here today youve softly changed my mind
Baby what a big surprise
Right before my very eyes
Baby what a big surprise
Just to be alone
Was a little more than I could take
Then you came to stay
Hold me in the morning
Love me in the afternoon
Help me find my way
Baby what a big surprise
Right before my very eyes
Baby what a big surprise
Baby what a big surprise
Right before my very eyes
Baby what a big surprise

I wake up in the morning
And the sun begins to shine
The day did sneak up on the night
I see your face and I see myself
And I get a little taste of life
I try to stand it for a while
But Im in a trance
Hey baby tell me cant you hear me calling
Im in a trance
I take too much in the saturday night
Hey... hey
Hey baby tell me cant you hear me calling
Im in a trance
I wanna try to stop this life
I feel so sad Im feeling down
On the radio the music plays
Im in love with her and I feel fine
I close my eyes
I think today is getting better with a sip of wine
And I can stand it for a while
When Im in a trance
Hey baby tell me cant you hear me calling
Im in a trance
I take too much in the saturday night
Hey... hey
Hey baby tell me cant you hear me calling
Im in a trance
I wanna try to stop this life
Im in a trance
Hey baby tell me cant you hear me caling

I take too much in the saturday night
Hey...hey
Hey baby tell me cant you hear me calling

Born To Be Loved By You

Borne again.
Because have you at just being borne again.
At last I feel that Im alive and more.
This is the moment Ive waited for.
Born to be loved by you.born to be loved by you.
Born to walk with you.born to talk with you.
I was born for you.
Born to be with you, only you.
Born to be loved by you.
Born for you, born for you baby.
Born for you, born for you baby.
Born for you, born to be loved by you
(you and only you) born to be with only you.
I look at you and all at once I know that dreams come true.
For there you are the other part of me.
I have found my destiny.
Born to be loved by you.born to be loved by you.
Right or wrong for you.weak or strong for you.
Faithful or untrue
Born chained forever and far beyond.
Born to be loved by you and only you
No one else will do.
Heart and soul,born to be loved
Born to be loved.born to be loved by you.

Born for you.born for you baby.
Born for you.born for you baby.

Did I Hear You Say You Love Me

Aaah...
Did I hear you say you love me
Well baby Ive got to know
cause if you really really love me
Youve got to do things to show
Dont give me the wrong impression
By showing me warm expressions
Put me in the right direction
With tender love and affection
Ive been standing on the outside
Trying to get on the inside
Did I hear you say you need me
Well baby tell me the truth
cause if you really really need me
My sweetness heres what Ill do
Cut out all my crazy playing
cause for your love I have been laying
Just tell me that is what youre saying
And Ill be yours without delaying

Well if you love me honey let me hear you say

Did I hear you say you want me
Now please dont give me no mess

Youve got to give me your best
Put my love life right in the pocket
And dare someone to try to top it
And when you think I want to drop it
Just love me til I beg dont stop it
cause Ive been standing on the outside
Trying to get on the inside
Well if you love me honey let me hear you say

Where Do Babies Come From? -Mother to Daughter

She turns 11 tomorrow.
and she says to me:

'Do babies come really
from there? '

That finger was much too low;
not my belly
but way below
and I froze-
between the lie
and her need to know
truth.

She,
eyes wide
'do they really come
from your thingie? '
I said
'yes, but...'
She interrupted
eyes wide
'but that's too small'

I could she her measuring
a little baby
with her tiny thingie
and she asked
'how can it come out?
'
'It'll stretch' I said
'don't worry
people have babies every day.'

'Did you stretch? ' she said.
'Yes, I did and you came out fine.'

Her eyes darted low
trying to visualize.

'Did it hurt? '

'Well yes but you know dear
I had some drugs and it was ok.
'
'Like aspirin? '
'Yes, sort of like aspirin but
much stronger.'

'So is there is pain..nnn? '
She stretched the word out.

'Yes, there is
but aspirin drugs
make it so it is not so bad.'

She said
'And that's because it goes inside? '

'What? '

'The baby comes because the boy's
thingie
goes inside your thingie? '

'Goes inside? '
I said

'Yes, does the boy thingie go inside the girl's thingie?

Inside' she repeated for emphasis.

'Well yes, if they are in love. That should only happen if they
are in love and married.'

'Oh.'

'If they are not married or in love does that mean a baby won't come? '

'Well, yes a baby can come even if they are not married or in love.'

'Mom' she said her eyes really wide. It goes inside? '

'Yes, '

'Does it hurt? '

'Well at first, it does hurt but after a while it feels good.'

'After a while-'

You mean you have to do it again so as to make it stop hurting? '

No, not exactly, I mean after a while you get used to it and it doesn't hurt.'

'What does it feel like? '

Huh? Feel like?

'Feel like, you know, feel like.'

'Oh, ' I said 'that is very private.

Only you and your husband should know
what it feels like but I can tell you it is very special.
A very special feeling
unlike any thing in the world.'

'Anything in the world? '

Yes, very special. It is God's way of making a baby and you know how
special babies are.'

She nodded.

And so my daughter learned from me
what her biology was telling her,
what those feelings inside meant
and I pray she has her special day,
her special tomorrow
with something special
that she will recall from me.

You're Amazing

Ain't no doubt about it, you're a masterpiece
You're amazing
Adrift at sea'til I saw your face
It's amazing
Anybodys guess - now it's guaranteed
Sent to seventh heaven in my hour of need
Baby baby baby you're amazing
Taken by surprise
Don't waste time tryin'to explain it
Can't believe my eyes
You changed my nights from black to blue
It's amazing
Ever since I fell in love with you
You're amazing
So far out of sight that it's like a dream
Beyond all imagining
But I believe
Baby baby baby you're amazing
Take me by surprise
Don't waste time, baby tryin'to explain it
Right before my eyes
Baby baby baby we ain't faking
We're in paradise
Baby doll, I'm not exaggering
I thought that I could see, but I was blind
I realized now I'm just wasting time
Baby baby baby you're amazing
Taken by surprise
Don't waste time, baby tryin'to explain it
Can't believe my eyes
I used to be weak but you made me strong
So amazing
It's gotta be right 'cos it sure ain't wrong
It's amazing
Baby you're the difference between day and night
I was in the dark 'til I saw the light
Dynamite!
Baby baby baby you're amazing
Took me by surprise
Don't waste time, baby tryin' to explain it
Right before my eyes
Baby baby baby we ain't faking
This is paradise
Baby doll, I'm not exaggering
Girl you're dynamite
Baby baby baby
Baby you're amazing
Took me by surprise
Baby you know how to drive me crazy
Make me realize
Why waste time baby tryin' to explain it
This is paradise
Baby baby baby you

The Night Inside Me

I used to lay out in a field under the Milky Way
With everything that I was feeling that I could not say
With every doubt and every sorrow that was in my way
Tearing around inside my head like it was there to stay
Night in my eyes, the night inside me
There where the shadows and the night could hide me
Night in my eyes
Sky full of stars turning over me
Waiting for night to set me free
I caught a ride into the city every chance I got
I wasn't sure there was a name for the life I sought
Now I'm a long way gone down the life I got
I don't know how I believed some of the things I thought
Night in my eyes, the night inside me
Here where the shadows gather to decide me
Night in my eyes
Out at the end of light and gravity
Waiting for night
It takes the night to clear all of this mess away
The obligation, the burden and the light of day
It takes the night to fall between the world I obey
And a world where I hear angels play
Maybe I should go back to Spain
I walk around inside the questions of my day
I navigate the inner reaches of my disarray
I pass the altars where fools and thieves hold sway
I wait for night to come and lift this dread away
Night in my eyes, the night inside me
Here where the shadows and the light divide me
Night in my eyes
Night full of promise and uncertainty
Waiting for night to set me free
