A Shared Fire!
evolving...
through inter-action,
interbeing, involvement.
dead people dont walk,
dont fill the bowls,
dont wipe away tears.
an island at the mercy
of a raging ocean...
but wind and mountain co-exist!
only the rhythm
of the soul walking beside,
validates the journey.
ashes, ashes, new plowed earth,
two sets of hands on the plow!
we fill each other's bodies
with a shared and dependent fire!

Phantom Bride
She was a shy girl from the lonely street
She had no job to do and no friends to meet
Shed sit in silence in her rented room
Dream of her childhood and invented truths
And in her mind shed drift away
A secret place to steal away
Dont you cry, dont you cry
Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes
Dont you cry, dont you cry
Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes
He was a good boy from the upside of town
Said her could treat her right said he could win her round
Her morning sickness and the kick inside
The phantom kisses of the phantom bride
And in her mind shed drift away
A secret place to steal away
Dont you cry, dont you cry
Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes
Dont you cry, dont you cry
Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes
And in her mind shed drift away
A secret place to steal away
Dont you cry, dont you cry
Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes
Dont you cry, dont you cry
Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes
No more lies
Dont you cry, dont you cry
Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes
Dont you cry, dont you cry
Let me wipe away the tears
Let me wipe away the tears

Go Away
Well I think of you when I fantasize
The best I ever had
And I think of you when Im drivin
Myself completely mad
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
Walkin on the footbridge
High above the clouds
Listenin to your yesterday
Didnt make a sound
Dazzled by your sweet lips
Touchin on me
Here comes trouble
Cant you see?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
Well I think of you when I dramatize
The things we never did
And I think of you when Im flyin
Or when Im feelin just like a kid
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go away? )
(why dont we go away? )

Dont Wanna
Dont want to talk, dont want to walk
Dont want to do anything
Dont want to kick, dont want to scream
Dont want to sleep, dont want to dream
Just want to sit, just want to stare
Do what you want I dont care
Wait for the phone, wait for the ring
Dont want to do anything
Chorus
Dont want to work, dont want to play
Just sit around everyday
Dont want to dance, dont want to sing
Dont want to do anything
Dont want to laugh, dont want to cry
Just want to sit and wonder why
Its just too much without your touch
Dont want to do anything

Dont Cry Baby
Written by dan peek, 1977
Found on harbor.
Starlight falling through your hair
Sometimes I wonder if you know Im there
Awake in the morning a smile on your face
The same old feeling that I just cant place
And you say dont cry, baby
You know Ill always be the one who cares
Dont cry, baby
Come closer let me wipe away your tears
A man came in with a violin
He played for me like Ive never been
Courted before and forevermore
As the bow touched the strings
He made the whole world sing
Dont cry, baby (baby, dont you cry)
You know therell always be someone who cares
Dont cry, baby (baby, dont you cry)
Come closer let me wipe away your tears
I know Ive been wrong
Youve had to be strong
I guess I belong to you, my baby (baby, dont you cry)
You know Ill always be the one who cares
Dont cry baby (baby, dont you cry)
Come closer let me wipe away your tears
The sound of your voice singing songs in the night
Have taken me far away and mystified
The songs of the lovers brought tears to my eyes
The words that youd spoken made me realize

Walk On By
You always said my eyes
Were the windows of my soul
You could always fill my love
And pain without been told
I never knew how, but I dont
Even dare to look at you now.
So, if you see me walking down the street
And I start to cry each time we leave
Walk on by, walk on by
Make believe
That you dont see the tears
Just let me grieve
In private cause each time I see you
I break down and cry, ooh baby,
Walk on by, ooh darling
Please, walk on by,
I dont wanna you to see me cry
Walk on by, please, please
Baby, baby dont stop...
So, if you ever love
Look the other way
There is anything left to say
Anyway...
I just cant get over losing you
And so if I seem broken and blue
Walk on by, walk on by
Foolish pride
Is all that I have left
So let me hide
The tears and the sadness you gave me
When you said goobye, ooh baby
Walk on by, ooh sugar
Walk on by...(baby, baby dont stop)
Baby, baby dont stop
Walk on by...ub..eh
Walk on by...
Foolish pride
Is all that I have left
So let me hide
The tears and the sadness you gave me
When you said goodbye
Walk on by..uuh baby
Walk on by...uuh sugar
Walk on by... walk on by
I dont want to see me cry
Walk on by, walk on by...
All the tears that I have cry...
I dont have nothing left to say...
Please take your head... look the other way...
Wow...wow...wow...walk on by...
Walk on by....

Not You Again
Oh, no, not you again
Please dont tell me
Youre here to stay
See I dont want to hear
Go away, go away
I like piano
I like to tv
Yeah I like my style, ya know, and I like to dream
I like color of the rainbow, they like to please me
But I dont like you, I dont like you, I dont like you
Ive told you before and Ill tell you again, and again, and again
Cant you get it thru your head
Youre not my friend
And Ive tried to be nice but now Im not going to lie
So I suggest you leave before I make you cry, bye
I like to be sulky
I like being vile
I like to make you angry, I like it all the while
I like to know that youre hated, it makes me smile
But I dont like you, I dont like you, I dont like you
Oh, no, not you again
Oh, no, not you again
Why, why, why, why me?
Why, why, why, why me?
I like where Im living
I like my view
I like anyone who detests you as I do
So I must find everyone including me too
cause I dont like you, I dont like you, I dont like you
Im sorry
Oh, no, not you again
Oh, no, not you again
I dont like, I dont like, I dont like, I dont like, I dont like you
I dont like, I dont like, I dont like you
Oh, no, not you again

Are You Ready?
Are you ready?
Action boy now
Action girl now
Be prepared to climb another mountain
Are you ready?
Action boy now
Action girl now
Be prepared to swim across the ocean
Are you ready?
Be prepared
To fill you plate
Be prepared
Dont hesitate
Be prepared
For a great big bust
Be prepared
To do what you must
Be prepared
To take a hit
Be prepared
To go for it
Be prepared
For a sneak attack
Be prepared
Just dont look back
They say, where theres a will theres a way
Weve heard, these are the things that they say
So.
Reach out for that big fat star
Stick to the groove
And go real far
Outrun the ones who steal the abar (? ? )
Are you ready?
Action boy now
Action girl now
Be prepared to blast into the future
Action boy now
Action girl now
Be prepared to rearrange the picture
Are you ready?

For ever cheating on you
See I was a fool, I plead insanity
I throw myself at your mercy
So do what you will with me
Have mercy, mercy, mercy on me
For cheatin on you

Cause nobody could do me like you
Have mercy, mercy, mercy on me
For cheatin on you
I dont know what I was thinking
Cause nobody could do me like you
Lover, do you hear me
I took your love for granted but now I see, I see

When I thought hed give me what you already could
Have mercy, mercy, mercy on me
For cheatin on you

Cause nobody could do me like you
Have mercy, mercy, mercy on me
For cheatin on you

Cause nobody could do me like you

I Dont Think We Could Ever Be Friends
(jean-alain roussel / sting)
Its the end of our journey
What can I do?
Lonely together
When Im alone with you
Now that weve come so far
It seems like the end
We could be lovers
We could never be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
We can never talk
Like others seem to do
Lonely together
Making love to you
We dont get nothing
From the letters we send
We could be lovers
We could never be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
Plus a new relationship
You know you break my heart
What I feel for yous too strong
It has been from the start
Everytime I see your face
Its tearing me apart
What is need is love from you
Oh, but I cant?
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends
I dont think we could ever
I dont think we could ever be friends

Walk on their side of the street?
Dont walk where it feels the best?
Walk away from people u meet?
Dont talk 2 strangers
Unless they walk the way u want them 2?
Dont walk unless the others do?
I said walk, like u could use a ride?
Dont walk with a confident stride
Then people will walk over u
Dont talk until they tell u 2?
Dont talk if its against the rules?
Just walk away and be a fool?
Thats what they wantcha 2 do
Yeah, thats what they want u 2 do

Dont walk wherever they tell u 2 - psyche!

The sun will shine upon u one day

If you should meet
Walk on
On down the street
Walk on
Dont even look
Walk on
Close up the book
We dont want the world to see us
Like we are
We should never have even gone this far
Quickly brush away that teardrop
Walk away darling
Dont stop
Dont look back for me baby
Walk on

Take the love we shared together
Keep it in your heart forever

Dont Walk Away
Why do I say, dont walk away
Youll be the way you were before, when you dont want me anymore
Dont turn around, dont ever leave, a lonely room where empty days
Are gathering to meet me when youre gone, gone
How in the world will I go on
(dont walk away) all you gotta do is stay
(dont walk away) all you gotta do is stay (dont walk away)
Chorus:
Dont walk away (dont walk away), dont say goodbye (dont say goodbye)
Dont turn around (dont turn around), dont let it die (dont let it die)
When shadows fall (when shadows fall), when day is done (when day is done)
All through the night (all through the night), all of my life (all of my life)
Dont walk away
Is it a dream, when will it end
When everything weve ever known has ended and Im all alone
Where will I go, where will I be, the feelings that Ive never shown
Maybe Ill find the answer when youre gone, gone
How in the world will I go on
(dont walk away) all you gotta do is stay
(dont walk away) all you gotta do is stay (dont walk away)
Chorus repeats 3x

I dont walk alone
i dont walk alone
during tough time
and easy times
i dont walk alone
when i get in fights
that i dont cause
most of the times
i dont walk alone
when people that hate me
because i have people
that love me
i dont walk alone
when i cry
or get mad or sad
because i have people
to back me up
and those are the
people i love
no matter what
so i know

Dont want you to confess
Not under duress
Dont want to be untrue

Who Am I?
Dont say it will stay this way forever
Im afloat in the ocean
Trying not to sick
Im a crack in the asphalt
You walk by on the street
Im a falling star you'll never see
The lash in you eye
The 'I' in team
So who am I
Dont say it will stay this way forever
Dont say it will stay this way forever
Im the lesson you'll never learn
The sickness that was never your concern
Im the big suprise at the end of the night
The bridge in the gap
The corner of your mind
So who am I
Dont say it will stay this way forever
Dont say it will stay this way forever
Dont say it will stay this way forever
Dont say it will stay this way forever
Im holding on
Yes I am careful what I wish for
I am the knot in your stomach
The phlegm in your throat
The message saying you're not home
Dont say it will stay this way forever
Dont say it will stay this way forever
Im afloat in the ocean
Trying not to sink

Since I Dont Have You
I dont have plans and schemes and I dont have hopes and dreams.
I dont have anything since I dont have you.
I dont have fond desires and I dont have happy hours.
I dont have anything since I dont have you.
I dont have happiness and I guess I never will again.
When you walked out on me in walked old misery,
And hes been here since then.
I dont have love to share and I dont have one who cares.
I dont have anything since I dont have you.
You, you...

My Little Man
Dont you know I love you more than life itself,
Dont you know that youre my pride
And I would not have you walking through this world.
Without me by your side
Go to sleep my little man
Dont you weep my little man
Id like to keep you with me all your life,
But I know I cant do that
So I must try to teach you wrong from right,
To keep the vulture from your back
Go to sleep my little man
Dont you weep my little man
And when youre dreaming you can talk to angels,
So wipe the tears from your eyes
And if theres demons that try to steal you breath away.
You cant believe that, know my spirit will be standing by your side
You saved me, you gave me, the greatest gift of all
Believe me, believe, there aint no mountain thats too tall
I will gladly carry your cross for you,
To take your pain away
But what I cant carry is my love for you,
Beyond my dying day
So be strong my little man
When Im gone my little man
You got to be my little man
So dont you weep my little man
Go to sleep my little man
Dont you weep my little man
You got to be my little man
So dont you weep my little man
