beneath sound lies a heartbeat
that cannot be played!

I Can Hear Your Heartbeat
In the silence of the side street
In the whisper of the night
From the darkness of the empty hours
To the early morning light
From the hustle down on main street
With all it's lights so bright
To the trucker on the highway
Pressing through the night
I can hear you heartbeat
I can hear you heartbeat
Girl, the sound of you is so sweet
To me
And i'm sailing on your wind song
Oh, i can feel the summer breeze
You've got me walking on my tiptoes
You've got me standing on my knees
From the mills way down in pittsburgh
To the clubs of gay paris
Ah, no matter where i roam, girl,
You can always get to me
I can hear you heartbeat
I can hear you heartbeat
Girl, the sound of you is so sweet
To me
We got freezing coca-cola
We got anything you want
I moving on that back beat
Girl, but it's you that sings the song
'cos i can hear you heartbeat
I can hear you heartbeat
The sound of you is so sweet
To me
Oh i still hear your heartbeat
Yea i still hear your heartbeat
Girl, the sound of you is so sweet,
To me

Would I Marry You? In A Heartbeat!
Inner heartbeat getting fonder!
Inner heartbeat getting sweet!
Inner heartbeat makes me ponder:
So how come life's incomplete?
Inner heartbeat moving faster!
Inner heartbeat moving strong!
Inner heartbeat prods its master...
So how come the days seem long?
Inner heartbeat stirring new love!
Inner heartbeat stirring sighs!
Inner heartbeat like a warm glove!
So how come this feels so nice?
Inner heartbeat palpitating!
Inner heartbeat passion-filled!
Inner heartbeat can't stand waiting!
So how come that it's so thrilled?
Inner heartbeat seeks its solace...
Inner heartbeat seeks its treat!
Inner heartbeat seeks your first kiss!
That's true love... in a heartbeat...

The Heart Beat
the heartbeat is the snare
and the drum beat within the flare
it is percussioned on the strings
of the sensory nerves, sometimes it rings
like a bell
to tell
the actor when the body cell
and muscles rebel
against a situation
the heartbeat is the music
that diffuses from within
correlatively, the heart
elevates the tempo of the music
thus, the heartbeat propels the music of the soul
condenses the rhythm and maintains the tempo
when confronted by fright
the heart becomes the stimuli
to which we respond to fright
faster like lightning; the heartbeat
such vibrations and continuous music
is the rave, reggae if not the rock n' roll of the heart
be it a dream that frightens or conscious
be it at funeral or night crawling
be it the 'karma sutra' or 'my cousin vinny'
be it at election polls or graduation ceremonies
be it wherever, howsoever
the heartbeat flexibly responds
but when we soulfully relaxed
the music from the heart
beats and can be heard as if from afar
the beat can even not be felt in dakar
nor can it be in the car
but within the possessor of thy heart
such is the heartbeat
the one complex music genre.

Dance On Heavy Weather
Take a chance - and dance
Its a chance - dance
All across the world theres people high on confrontation
And they try to solve their problems burning up the nation
Turn the whole world upside down and leave it in confusion
But still we get no answers using yesterdays solutions
We are the ones, keep sight of it
Dont have to make a fight of it
Dance on heavy weather
Learn to live with modern times
You can take the pressure
Its all a state of mind - so we can
Dance on heavy weather
Raise the heartbeat of the young
If we move together
Dont you know that we are the ones
Take a chance - and dance
Its a chance - dance
You can try to hide behind a mask of contemplation
Say you want to live your life in private isolation
From the east you cant ignore the storm of disillusion
And so it falls on all our shoulders to find a new solution
Youve got to make a start of it
Youve got to feel a part of it
Dance on heavy weather
Learn to live with modern times
You can take the pressure
Its all a state of mind - so we can
Dance on heavy weather
Raise the heartbeat of the young
If we move together
Let the soul - take control - we are the ones
Take a chance - and dance
Its a chance - dance
Hear the sound of the heartbeat of the young
Though the rhythm is so unfamiliar
Just be sure to be there now the time has come
Hear the music that brings us together
Dance on heavy weather
Hear the sound of the heartbeat of the young
We can take the pressure
We may have a solution, we are the ones
Dance on heavy weather
Hear the sound of the heartbeat of the young
If we move together
We may have a solution, we are the ones

Serious Music
(words by john oates
Music by john oates, george bizet)
To play to get rich
And die baroque is wrong
If you write a song for god
Will he sing along
While rows of robot symphonies read on
Is that the way you wanted it played
Manuscripted memories
Sound with no electricity
Concentration line on the face of serious music
Manuscripted memories
Sound but no electricity
Concentration lines on the face of serious music
You brought a bit of jazz to the concert hall
But you wont hear violins at the darkies ball
Your rhapsody in blue will outlive us all
I wish I was there the night you played it
Manuscripted memories
Sound with no electricity
Concentration line on the face of serious music
Manuscripted memories
Sound but no electricity
Concentration lines on the face of serious music

When.
Music when sound becomes hollow.
When sun turns to storm.
When earth begins to quake.
Screams echo in Summer breeze.
Laughter floats away on the waves.
Music when silence becomes deafening.
Music when dry eyes start to cry.
Music when dreams turn to nightmares.
Music when calamity turns to chaos.
When clear minds cloud.
When loving heart break.
When children never exist.
When words are never spoken.
Music when sound becomes hollow.
Music when soft voices die.

Suicidal Mind
This world crumbles before me
the days turn dark and cold
something inside my soul
eating away my flesh
torn and frayed
it's such a mess
nothing here left to hold
In this suicidal mind
where only demons you will find
Tortured by the pain
can't escape your misery
I tried to refrain
these games we played
hear the sound of silence
sealed with a kiss
memories I can't let go
that leave me like this
Haunted by your presence
I think of days of old
with blood in my eyes
lost in a endless day
hiding from myself
facing reality with your lies
In this suicidal mind
where only demons you will find
Now as the sun filled skies
turns dim and gray
with words of angony
every heartbeat dies
with every fallen ones cries

the Joy Of Music
-THE JOY OF MUSIC -
The violin sang so softly
In the hands of this old man
As he sat there on the wooden stool
Bow held gently in his hand.
His wife played grand piano
Sweet music they did make
As from the hard work of the fields
This respite, they would take.
Gentle music of God's praise
They played for all to hear.
The sweetest music in the land
Was falling on God's ear.
They passed along that joyous sound
To children they did bare
The most relaxing trait of all
The gift of music rare.
And now throughout the generations
Which do continue to abound
We hear the perfect notes and glorious songs,
The joy of music does resound.

With You In A Heartbeat
(howe/thomas)
I had your picture, i had it there on the wall
It's been a long time, i didn't notice it fall
Just goes to show you, things get strange, there's nothin', nothin' i can do
You got your own life, i got mine, i still got feelings for you
And i wonder what you're thinking, does it ever seem right
Don't you know there's something missing, we don't have to fight
If you call me tonight
Chorus:
I'll be with you in a heartbeat, just whisper my name
And i'll be with you in a heartbeat, no questions, no blame
And i'll be with you in a heartbeat, just whisper my, just whisper my name
I got no answers, sometimes i just wanna shout
Which way to turn now, can't seem to figure this out
I haven't seen you in oh so long, nothin', nothin' seems to fade
Tried to forget you, but you won't go, ooh the memories we made
And i tried so hard to fight it, but it keeps comin' through
Ooh you were all i ever wanted, i'm waiting for you, if you wanted me too
Chorus
I'll be with you in a heartbeat, just whisper my name
And i'll be with you in a heartbeat, no questions, no blame
And i'll be with you in a heartbeat, just whisper my, just whisper my name
(solo)
And i wonder what you're thinking, does it ever seem right
Don't you know there's something missing, we don't have to fight
If you call me tonight
Chorus repeats out...
I'll be with you in a heartbeat, just whisper my name
And i'll be with you in a heartbeat, no questions, no blame
And i'll be with you in a heartbeat, just whisper my, just whisper my name

Electric Nation
Maurice white, brain fairweather & martin page
Were living by computer
The sound is rushing through ya
Believe in what your eyes see
Youre in touch with the energy
The rhythm of the heartbeat
You can hear it down on main street
The music of a new breed
Its gonna bring the world to life
Turn it on, come alive
And let the power flow
When you turn it on, youre alive
Youre energized inside your mind
Turn on electric nation
The kids will make the world turn around
Turn on electric nation
Everybodys wired for sound
Now were making progress
The feeling is the process
When science meets emotion
Well then youve found the formula
Experience the fusion
Create your own illusion
Electric celebration
Were gonna bring the world to life
Turn it on, come alive
And let the power flow
When you turn it on, youre alive
Youre energized inside your mind
Make the body generate
Make it dance
Switch it on and activate
Take a chance
When you feel the chemistry
Let it go
Automatic memory
Take control
Can you feel what a thrill
When you dance into another world
Turn it on electric nation
The kids will make the world
Turn around
Turn it on electric nation
Everybodys wired for sound

Sharpening My Axe
back to the grind wheel....
sharpening my axe for another week;
and listening, for the sound
of my own heartbeat
within the heartbeat of the universe,
in the heartbeat of the stranger,
in the heartbeat of my enemy....
i have slept with despair,
with suffering and need....
have wallowed in my own mistakes.
have been lied to, used, and abused....
but at times, to be honest with myself,
i have lied to and abused others
let me move forward with honest hope,
with firm dedication to compassion....
let my every word be a tool,
my thoughts and prayers a helping hand...
let me find my life in others,
and others find solace in me!

Initial Attraction
What lies beneath the surface smile?
which you display to everyone?
The mask you wear to be in style.
What lies beneath is yours alone.
Does it indicate interest?
What lies beneath the surface smile?
And will I perhaps pass the test
enjoy your company for a while.
Is it a sign of practiced guile?
or simple act of self defence.
What lies beneath the surface smile?
Must I rely on my sixth sense?
My need to know grows more intense
I am prepared to wait awhile
to try and gain your confidence.
What lies beneath the surface smile?

Once We Played
ONCE we played at love together--
Played it smartly, if you please;
Lightly, as a windblown feather,
Did we stake a heart apiece.
Oh, it was delicious fooling!
In the hottest of the game,
Without thought of future cooling,
All too quickly burned Life's flame.
In this give-and-take of glances,
Kisses sweet as honey dews,
When we played with equal chances,
Did you win, or did I lose?
Was your heart then hurt to bleeding,
In the ardour of the throw?
Was it then I lost, unheeding,
Lost my heart so long ago?
Who shall say? The game is over.
Of us two who loved in fun,
One lies low beneath the clover,
One lies lonely in the sun.

Atlantique :
Gotta learn the way to turn
Hat over eye
Feeling dead more than alive
Give her something to rely on
One more time.
No one hears the sound
Fear is all around
Turn the music loud
No more lullaby.
No way in, no way out
Empty talk and tv shouts
Got to find the way around
No, you aint no lifer
In this town.
No one hears the sound
Fear is all around
Turn the music loud
No more lullaby.
Stop the beat, hear the sound
Time has come for you to speak
Your mind
Cant you hear the sound?
Chaos all around
Turn the music loud
No more lullaby
Dee-dee-dee x2
Learn to fly.

Turn The Music Loud (Rock Lyrics) :
If you're looking for a great adventure honey.
Lookin' for the things you need.
If you're lookin' for times of passion baby.
Someone you can meet.
I suggest the local tavern honey.
I suggest a real good time.
You should try to throw a party baby.
Buy the bar a round.
Try to keep this party going till morning.
Bring along a crowd.
I suggest we go to your apartment baby.
Turn the music loud.
Turn the music way up loud now.
Turn the music loud.
Turn the music way up loud now.
Turn the music loud..
We can keep this party movin' honey.
If we turn the music loud.
Turn the music way up loud now.
Turn the music loud.
We can really crank it up now.
Just turn the music loud.
Turn the music way up loud now.
Turn the music loud.
Turn the music loud...

Some Music Can Inspire
It is strange how some music
can inspire more than others
and make you write and write.
Give you ideas, which
you quickly put down on paper
and turn into beautiful things.
Sometimes it is a whole collection,
sometimes it is a single tune.
Whatever it is the more it is played
the more ideas that come to you.
It is a love affair
that can go on forever
whenever that music is played.
