U and us 1
so the candle burns lightening the room
and giving heat like two bodies touching at noon
i will sit and wait till the time is set
and ripe for me to stick my neck and bet
until it burs to a point when the room is lit up
then i know that its time to take up
you are to my countenance joy
and to my heart conquering like troy
your eyes pierce my heart
leaving me no option than in love to act
come i'll stroke your hair
don't leave me oh! lady fair
go nowhere rather sit on my lap
while i admire you and to the almighty lower my cap

Leave A Little Room
(michael randall)
If your heart is breaking
cause your dreams not coming true
Leave a little room
To start again
If your faith is shaken
Though it seems you thought it through
Leave a little room
For it to mend
Leave a little room
To find a friend
Leave a little room
To start again
First you think youre alone
And the worlds made of stone
And the game isnt fair
till you know someone cares
till someone cares
If your love is leaving
And you thought that it was true
Leave a little room
To think again
If your heart is bleeding
And you dont know what to do
Leave a little room
For it to mend
Leave a little room
To find a friend
Leave a little room
To start again
And youre glad youre alive
Youve got nothing to hide
And the feeling is free
And the feeling is me
If your heart is breaking
cause your dreams not coming true
Leave a little room
To start again
If your love is leaving
And you thought that it was true
Leave a little room
To find it
Put a little faith behind it
Leave a little room
And start again
Leave a little room
To find it
Put a little faith behind it
Leave a little room
And start again
Leave a little room
To start again

Lady Please
(hicks)
Well theres them that do and them that dont
Them that will and them that wont
Ive been trying to get you for a long time
For a long time
When our eyes meet at each different place
How I got to know your face
Think that I have loved you for a long time
For a long time
Lady please Im not a man of many words you see
If you lie with me, you wont sleep
Lady please if in the future theres some other man
I will understand and I wont weep
As our bodies fill my lonely room
A room that once was filled with gloom
Know that I will love you for a long time
For a long time
For a long time
Chorus
As the morning sun lights up our bed
You are there to stroke my head
Know Im going to love you for a long time
For a long time
Lady please
Lady please
Lady please

The White Room
(SpringfieldVallance)
I can see her at her windows watching,
locked away inside her skin,
I can see her but I can't get to her, she won't come out,
and she won't let me into
The white room (she's living in)
Lying alone til she comes undone
In the white room, she burns for the real thing.
But it won't come.
In her head is the same obsession
and all the bottles and pills won't heal her heart.
She heard his last confession
and every word just tears her apart
In the white room (locked away)
doing time till her time is done
In the white room there's so much to say
but the words won't come.
Come back to the land of the living,
when you gonna break the chain,
there's so much too much that you're leaving
and you're never gonna stop the rain
In the white room.
waiting for the call that never comes
in the white room, she awaits.
Look at something long enough you'll find,
that the splinters and the cracks begin to show,
I'll be the first in line when the walls start falling
and she lets go of
The white room (it's late)
living alone only makes you numb
In the white room she burns for the real thing
but it won't come
In the white room (she's living in) I think its time
that you're time is done,
In the white room she burns
In the white room (it's late)
lying alone till she comes undone
In the white room she awaits
In the white room

Burn My Candle, Burn
The candle witch burns the sheets black, so my heart ash my blood from love to attack - I am broken for the sake of being alive - I am damaged just to feel why live is real - I will never walk any moon, i hide to prevent you from leaving the room - I have tears measured by the tea cups spoon, i am waiting upon death to ride into noon - By the whispers off the wings of a butterfly, so i will reach to the skies - why will you not peace me to die

In Your Room
In your room
Theres a bed in the corner
In your room
Theres a view over the town
In your room
Youre tipewriters telling stories
In your room
There are you waiting for me
When I look into your eyes
I look into a mirror
When I look into your eyes
I can see myself
Kings and queens
They have lost their heads
But i
Ive lost my heart
In your room
Id like to crawl into you
Come cover me with love
Id like to crawl into you
Come cover me with love
Till weve had enough
And we never get enough
There are worlds beneath the world
And they are covered under blankets
In your room
In your room

You Are Right
DARKNESS, i want to be left alone
inside my room.
You knock, i say, Leave me.
My heart is bleeding and there is no
sign that it will stop
that way.
I am embraced by grief.
You leave me and I Keep time
as company inside my room
DARKNESS.
Time kills me. I am alone as i want it to be.
I kill time,
utterly confused, i keep saying and writing,
i will never love again.
You are right. Your love is breaking my heart
and there is no cure.
I will bury it. Soon. Leave me alone.

Room Service
Im feelin low, no place to go
And Im a-thinking that Im gonna scream
Because a hotel all alone is not a
Rock and roll stars dream
But just when Im about to shut the light and go to bed
A lady calls and asks if Im too tired or if Im just to dead for
Room service, baby I could use a meal
Room service, you do what you feel
Room service, I take the pleasure with the pain
I cant say no
My planes delayed and Im afraid
Theyre gonna keep me waiting here till nine
Then a stewardess in a tight blue dress says
I got the time
But just as Im about to take my coat and get my fly
She says oh please, shes on her knees
And one more time before I leave I get some
Room service, baby I could use a meal
Room service, you do what you feel
Room service, I take the pleasure with the pain
I cant say no, no
In my home town, Im hangin round
With all the ladies treatin me real good
A sweet sixteen lookin hot and mean says
I wish you would
But just as Im about to tell her yes, I think I can
I see her dad, hes getting mad
All the time he knows that Im in need of
Room service, baby I could use a meal
Room service, you do what you feel
Room service, I take the pleasure with the pain
I cant say no
Room service, baby I could use a meal
Room service, you do what you feel
Room service, I take the pleasure with the pain
I cant say no, I cant say no
Room service, baby I could use a meal
Room service, you do what you feel
Room service, you take the pleasure with the pain
I cant say no

Twenty Foreplay
Sleep my love
Dont you worry
You just sleep my love
And Ill stroke your hair
Oh the sunlight on your face
As the day begins to break
When you wake
And your smile meets mine ah
My day begins
Youre my inspiration
Seeing your face glow
In the nicest of hellos
Five till noon
You sneak up from behind
Kiss and caress me
Make love to my mind
A whisper and kiss from you
Warms my heart
Means so much
Making love our way
Begins early in the day
You walk in the room
In a sunset sort of room
My emotions light up
cause of you
Now that evenings come
Were dressed for us my love
Wine and candles puts us in a sexy moon
Thats when we get to it
Close our eyes
Feel our way though it
I cant wait to groove ya
cause you sure know how to move it
Youve made love to my mind
Now you gotta take me from behind
Just like in the movies
When the action begins
Lets put on a show (cant you feel it)
And well take it nice and slow (cant you feel it)
Oh here we go (cant you feel it)
Tell me do you want the blindfold (cant you feel it)
Tell me what you like (cant you feel it)
Baby should I do it once or twice (cant you feel it)
I know that weve getting naughty (cant you feel it)
But I know you like it like that
Now that we felt this warm explosion
I know youre satisfied (I know youre satisfied)
I see it in your eyes (I see it in your eyes)
Relax be still my love (still my love)
Let your heart slow down (heart slow down)
cause Im not through my dear
Dont stop
Remember twenty foreplay
Can you feel it twenty foreplay
I need it twenty foreplay
I need it twenty foreplay
You know I need it
Yes I need it
24 hours a day
Can you feel it
24 hours a day
Can you feel it
Twenty foreplay
Not yet
Its not what you say
Before we start to play
Its what you say after
That makes me want to stay

Like A Stone
On a cold wet
Afternoon
No room for love and emptiness
By a freeway
I confess I was lost in the pages
Of a book
Full of death
Reading how well die alone
And if a God will lay to rest
Anywhere we want to go
In your house
I long to be
Room by room
Patiently
Ill wait for you there
Like a stone
Ill wait for you there
Alone
And on my death bed
I will prey
To the gods and the angels
Like a pagan
To anyone who will take me to heaven
To a place
I would recall
I was there so long ago
The sky was bruised
The world was black
And there you led me on
In your house
I long to be
Room by room
Patiently
Ill wait for you there
Liek a stone
Ill wait for you there
Alone
In all I read
Till the day was gone
And I sat in regret
In all the things Ive done
For all that Ive blessed
And all that Ive wronged
In dreams till my death
I will wonder on
In your house
I long to be
Room by room
Patiently
Ill wait for you there
Like a stone
Ill wait for you there
Alone
Alone

When I Think About Leaving
You know some times me and my lady have these crazy fights and when we do it makes me wonder
Are we\'re ever gonna get it right
When I think about leaving I think about me
What my life would be like if I were back to being free
Go where I wanna go, do what I wanna do, wouldn\'t have a soul I had to answer to
When I think about leaving I think about me
You know I got a friend him and his wife just couldn\'t see eye to eye he had all he could
Stand one day and just packed up and said good-bye
When I think about leaving I think about him
That little apartment cross town he\'s living in
Got an old corvette, got a new girlfriend, but only sees his kids every other weekend
When I think about leaving oh I think about him
I never will forget her face or the day she told me about her dad, how he walked out on her
And her mom when she was just a kid
When I think about leaving oh I think about her
Only five years old and her heart filled up with hurt
With her little arms wrapped around his neck saying daddy where you going, are you coming
Back
When I think about leaving I think about her
You know the truth is, most of the time things were really great and I know we got something
Special
When I think about leaving I think about us
How we build this love we share on faith and trust, honest way we talk, tender way we touch,
All those nights we spent making love,
When I think about leaving oh I think about us
When I think about leaving I think again
Even though that thought crosses my mind every now and then
In my heart I know I would never leave, there\'s nowhere else on earth I would rather be
When I think about leaving I think again
When I think about leaving
When I think about leaving
When I think about leaving:I think again

Summer Fire
Summer's Eyes shine
sublimely
penetrating deep in ocean
mine
tattoos upon my consciousness
which Summer illuminates
but she, too, burns
from giving more heat
than I can withstand
a searing of my soul
I, am, the moth to her flame;
a supplicant
intoxicated by her Summerness
her Sherazade
her Red Burning Flower
her mere attention;
I chased her light
but was consumed by her heat
seared heart returning time and time again
to her cobalt inferno kiss..
She was my incendiary addiction
from which I tried
time and time again to retire
from her and her fire
which attracted me so-
the lady with the red hair
and green eyes-
my Summer fix.
But now I look rather to
those with Spring's touch
No fault of Summer here
she was captured and bound inside her own lovely bloom,
but I had to recognize
in fact
I'm more at ease
with Spring's Empathies
than with fiery Summer flowerings.
The many chased after Summer's Heat
But now I know I am more suited
to relish Spring's offerings;
than Summer's Insouciance
rather than her too ripened,
too wise Summer flower
over-sure of its own beauty
oblivious of Moths and Flames.

Love Burns
See what you do
You make me act so crazy
I'm overcome, I know
Stealin' my own show
For your love
And who am I now, Clown or Casanova
I'm never sure with you
And what more can I do
For your love burns
Warmer than you know
When love burns,
Never let it go away
And where do we go
Find a road to lead us
I'm searching in your eyes
A world beyond the skies
For your love burns
Brighter than you know
When love burns,
Never let it go away
Love burns
Brighter than you know
Oh, love burns
Never let it go away
Love burns when the spirit is wounded
Cut deep by the sound of rejection
Love burns in the soul of the seeker
Blue shadows in every direction
Love burns when the heart is uncovered
In the rage of the coldly storm
Love burns
Through the night and the morning
Till the frozen heart is warm
Love burns
Love burns
Love burns
Love burns

Room To Breathe
You ain't done nothin' wrong but I think we need to talk
You might be the one but before we go too far
I need a little time to figure out my heart
Who could ask for more but I need to know for sure
I haven't been myself from the minute that we met
I ran into your world and kind of walked out on myself
All those dreams I had I began to second guess or you
One too many questions until I know the truth
I need room to breathe
A little time to think
To make sure I don't lose me
I need room to breathe
I know you're not to blame and I swear there's no one new
This has to do with me and not a thing to do with you
So don't try to understand
You don't have a thing to prove to me
If you really love me just give me what I need
Room to breathe
A little time to think
To make sure I don't lose me
I need room to breathe
Please don't take this wrong
And please don't turn away
I just don't want to look back
One day and say
I need room to breathe
A little time to think
To make sure I don't lose me
I need room to breathe
Room to breathe

All She Wants
Old men were throwing dice
The night you fell in love
She walked into the light
Like an angel from above
But this girls been a block or two
Just about time for someone new
What she really means by how dya do
Is boy Im gonna walk all over you
All she wants from you is a good time lover
Pretty litle boy for a week or two
Gonna break your heart and it wont recover
Leaving you all bitter and blue
You gout so much to say but
She just dont wanna hear
Shell leave you bills to pay
And you crying in your beer
Well its no use thinking its a honeymoon
All your gonna hear from now till noon
Just a broken man in a rented room
Keep playing that ladys favourite tune
All she wants from you is a good time lover
Gonna go right out and find some other
Do the same thing that she did to you
But she needs to know that youll always love her
Like a harem in a desert sea
In her big black book gonna put your number
Let your love sink in a sea of dreams
Theres a place that she left long ago (goodbye girl)
Where a boy used her only for show (goodbye girl)
Came the time for the end of her world
Told her thank you but now its goodbye, its goodbye
Goodbye girl
Well its no use thinking its a honeymoon
All youre gonna hear from now till noon
Just a broken man in a rented room
Keep playing that ladys favourite tune
All she wants from you is a good time lover
Pretty little boy for a week or two
Gonna go right out and find some other
Do the same thing that she did to you
But she needs to know that youll always lover her
Like a harem in a desert sea
In her big black book gonna out your number
All she wants
Its been goodbye all along - goodbye all along

Heart
Does she make you laugh?
Does she make you cry?
Does she call your name?
Let me tell you why.
Have you ever tried to look into her eyes?
Have you ever tried to look into her heart?
There is no-one home.
Time will heal you
Time heals everything
Just an empty room.
Time will help you
Time helps you forget
Theres no tears for you.
Time will heal you
Time heals everyone
Theres no heart at all.
Time will help you
Time helps you forget me.
She will change your world.
She will change your mind.
She will change your rules.
She will make you blind.
You will never try to look into her eyes.
You will never try to look into her heart.
See theres no-one home.
Time will heal you
Time heals everything
See an empty room.
Time will help you
Time helps you forget
See no tears for you.
Time will heal you
Time heals everyone
See no heart at all.
Time will help you
Time helps you forget me.
Ill leave you
Youll try to forget.
Ill haunt you.
Like someone haunts me.
Ill leave you.
Youll try to forgive.
Ill haunt you.
Like someone haunts me.
Does she laugh at you
Like she laughed at me?
Does she break your heart
Like she broke mine?

She Might Never Know
I was sitting lonely in my car
Watching her come and go
I could feel the strings pulling my heart
From the old house,
That I used to know
Like the river that was flowing
She was coming without knowing
Our loves the river that somehow lost its flow,
Lost its flow
From my car I can see her there
As the curtain slowly moves
As he runs his fingers thru her hair
And the fire slowly grooves
Whats the answer to this pain
I want to get back to her love again
And there shes sitting in that room
When she walked cross the street
Could she feel theres a heat
From my heart as it beats with her love
In her eyes other guys
See the fair that is there
But she might never know
But she might never know
I was sitting lonely in my house,
Wanting to tell her, wanting to call
And say I know I let you down,
Without thinking, his love might fall
No more hurting, no more clowning,
This emotion, isnt drowning,
If the rivers gonna save our true love after all,
After all
Im chewing on my nails again,
With my home across the street
I aint got no place to turn to now
While youre cooking for that creep
Whats the answer to this pain
I want to get back to her love again
There shes sitting in that room
When she walked cross the street
Could she feel theres a heat
From my heart as it beats with her love
In her eyes other guys, see the fair that is there
But she might never know
But she might never know
As I turned so she waved, this was all that she gave
So what was there to trade in love
Just the past that was cast, in the groove of the move
That she might never know
She might never know

Summertime In The Void
i felt the break and roll of the nexus on a day when the whole world
elected to sell us out there are the hands that grab my attention
when all is what i'm giving they slow me down slower
then southern muddy rivers
when you think theres salvation when you don't want
to leave your room eyes with eyes open undreaming
when it's summertime in the void
when it's summertime in the void the sun is upside down
and facing the other way until days end with a skitzophrenic everjoy
and a sense of doubt you wait automatic and afraid
on ran the train through my solar plexis on the day i made good connection
with love out loud, home, hate and sound
and who wrote the words to my death sentence when life is what i'm living
and leaving now while i trip till time is over
when it's summertime in the void and the stars yell out your name all together
and insane 'cause they're broken words they are a noise there's
no answer for you wait automatic and afraid.

A Ballade of Waiting
No girdle hath weaver or goldsmith wrought
So rich as the arms of my love can be;
No gems with a lovelier lustre fraught
Than her eyes, when they answer me liquidly.
Dear lady of love, be kind to me
In days when the waters of hope abate,
And doubt like a shimmer on sand shall be,
In the year yet, Lady, to dream and wait.
Sweet mouth, that the wear of the world hath taught
No glitter of wile or traitorie,
More soft than a cloud in the sunset caught,
Or the heart of a crimson peony;
Oh turn not its beauty away from me;
To kiss it and cling to it early and late
Shall make sweet minutes of days that flee,
In the year yet, Lady, to dream and wait.
Rich hair, that a painter of old had sought
For the weaving of some soft phantasy,
Most fair when the streams of it run distraught
On the firm sweet shoulders yellowly;
Dear Lady, gather it close to me,
Weaving a nest for the double freight
Of cheeks and lips that are one and free,
For the year yet, Lady, to dream and wait.
Envoi.
So time shall be swift till thou mate with me,
For love is mightiest next to fate,
And none shall be happier, Love, than we,
In the year yet, Lady, to dream and wait.
