This Fabulous Place
As I peer at the moon and revel at each star,
It’s as if night’s ceiling really isn’t that far.
My mind floats like a comet through unending space.
The haunting heavens are mine in this fabulous place.
Back here on earth many smiling people abound.
Like bees in a hive they busily scatter around.
They enliven this world with their unending pace.
Friends and acquaintances are close in this fabulous place.
Not long ago each country was a world of its own.
Now distant corners yield mysteries to a mere telephone.
Unknowns spring from sources that once hadn’t a trace,
But now have become indispensables in this fabulous place.
Trees reach to the sky as flowers follow the sun.
Flora and fauna provide seasonal splendor for everyone.
The fortunes of nature paint an inspiring face,
Enchantingly molding rock and soil in this fabulous place.
Time’s needles are unrelenting in their unscrupulous race
To transform budding roses into wilting leaves in a vase.
But love’s light looms large and is life’s base in every case…
The essence of existence making our world this fabulous place.

Joe Fabulous
don't play my music on mtv
play it on the radio
we are the street kings and we don't care
yeah we really don't wanna know
i'm joe fabulous

America - it is a fabulous country, the only fabulous country; it is the only place where miracles not only happen, but where they happen all the time.

Fabulous Work
Fabulous times are every year,
No longer are the times too scary,
Independence is now a clear favour
From up above. We are thin and weak
As men and other folk do as they please.
The image appears, the crystal is glistening,
You work harder along some of the winds.
It is as if the whole world is damaged
And you are not, the work of a dupe
Is injuring and yours is not.
This is fabulous for some.
For some it is a fabulous practical joke.

Dont Bang The Drum
Here we stand
In a special place
What are you gonna do here?
Now we stand
In a special place
What will you do here?
What show of soul
Are we gonna get from you
It could be deliverance
Or history under these skies
So blue
Could be something true...
...but if I know you
Youll bang the drum like monkeys do
Here we are in this fabulous place
What are you you gonna dream here?
We are standing in this fabulous place
What will you play here?
I know you love the high life
You life to leap around
You love to beat your chest
And make your sound
But not here man
- this is sacred ground
With a power flowing through...
..and if I know you
Youll bang the drum like monkeys do
Here we stand
On a rocky shore
Your father stood here before you
I can see his ghost explore you
I can feel the sea implore you
Not to pass on by
Not to walk on by
Not to try...
...just let it come
Dont bang the drum
Just let it come
Dont bang the drum
Just a-let it come
Dont bang the drum
Do you know how to let it come now?
Dont bang the drum now...
Just let it come now
Dont bang the drum
Just let it come
Dont bang the drum...

The Place Where The Rainbow Ends
THERE'S a fabulous story
Full of splendor and glory,
That Arabian legends transcends;
Of the wealth without measure,
The coffers of treasure,
At the place where the rainbow ends.
Oh, many have sought it,
And all would have bought it,
With the blood we so recklessly spend;
But none has uncovered,
The gold, nor discovered
The spot at the rainbow's end.
They have sought it in battle,
And e'en where the rattle
Of dice with man's blasphemy blends;
But howe'er persuasive,
It still proves evasive,
This place where the rainbow ends.
I own for my pleasure,
I yearn not for treasure,
Though gold has a power it lends;
And I have a notion,
To find without motion,
The place where the rainbow ends.
The pot may hold pottage,
The place be a cottage,
That a humble contentment defends,
Only joy fills its coffer,
But spite of the scoffer,
There's the place where the rainbow ends.
Where care shall be quiet,
And love shall run riot,
And I shall find wealth in my friends;
Then truce to the story,
Of riches and glory;
There's the place where the rainbow ends.

Wendy Time
You look like you could do with a friend
She said
You look like you could use a word
Like first or follow or fly she said
Laughing away as she turned
You look like a poor boy
At the edge of the world
And when i die i said
I leave you it all
Door closes
Poor boy's song
You look like you could do with a friend
She said
You look like you could use a word
Like first or follow or fly she said
Laughing away as she turned
You look just like a poor boy
At the edge of the world
And when i die i said
I'll leave you it all
Door closes
Poor boy's song
It doesn't touch me at all...
You look like you could do with a sister
She said
You look like you could use a girl to call your own
Like fabulous fabulous
Call me fabulous
And laughing away as she turned
You look just like a poor boy
At the edge of the world
And when i die i said
I'll leave you it all
Door closes
Poor boy's song
It doesn't touch me at all...
It doesn't touch me at all...
Throwing moves

It only goes
(???) comes
Like it always does
The kissing ends

Between Moonset and Sunrise
with the sunrise
every second
less and less timid on my back
I walk towards moonset
feeling as high as I can
feeling like I never felt before,
feeling moved as can be
with the strength of sunrise on my back
confronting the miracle unfolding
in and surrounding me.
participating by consciously walking on
witnessing every new fabulous second of it
with the power of the moonset on my face
this paints me becoming who I am
through whom I was by nature itself
allowing me to feel and be
the observer in myself
breathing the fabulous views
flowing in and out of me
realizing the spirit of the moment
having and taking the opportunity
to capture is all to cover it all
within a flash of time
the moon disappears behind the clouds
knowing it will not fall
the shy sunrise
with its warming face
creating
the warmest blanket ever
for the first time
having
the courage
feeling
love and faith
it is a dream
I am living
it is a dream
breathing it in
and out
this is
what it is all about

Club America
i ride into the town on a big black trojan horse
i'm looking to have some fun
some kind of trigger-happy intercourse
'club america salutes you,'
says the girl on the door
'we accept all major lies
we love any kind of fraud
so go on in and enjoy
go on in and enjoy!!!'
i'm buying for my bright new friends
blue suzannes all round
and my mood's heavily pregnant...
yeah you're right
i couldn't help but notice your icy blue eyes
they've been burning two holes in the sides of my head
since the second I arrived
and it's not too hard to guess from your stick-on stars
and your canary feather dress
your hair in such a carefully careless mess
that you're really trying very hard to impress
you're such a wonderful person living a fabulous life
sensational dazzling perfectly sized
such a wonderful person living a fabulous life
sharing it with me in club america tonight...
so we talk a while about some band you saw on TV
but I don't listen to you and you don't listen to me
yeah it's an old routine but it's a very special part of the game
and you don't really care what I call you at all
and I can't quite remember your name
and it's not too hard to guess from your stick-on stars
and your canary feather dress
the way you so carefully couldn't care less
that you're really trying very hard to impress
you're such a wonderful person living a fabulous life
sensational dazzling perfectly sized
you're such a wonderful person living a fabulous life
sharing it with me tonight
yeah you're a wonderful person living a fabulous life
fantastic divine and thrillingly bright
you're a wonderful person living a fabulous lie
with me in club america tonight...

The World in my eyes
The world. A harsh place, yet
through the harshness of its existence comes
a ray of light, brought by passion,
passion from the existence of the human race
of individuals making peace, love, violence,
A contrast.
The world, a place of ever growing pain and hate,
the place once fuelled on love cannot breathe, is dying without pain.
Think.
The world once powered by unity is sickened without grief.

Theres Only One
Theres a thousand ways to tell you whats weighin on my mind
On this heart shaped rock at lovers peak above the city lights
I take off my jacket, put it around you and watch you close your eyes
Your hand feels so warm like your breath on my face
These words that I have been holdin back
Have found the perfect time and place
Theres only one, wish I make each time I see a falling star
Theres only one, place I wanna be and that is where you are
Theres only one, man in this world who can love you like I do
You know we only get one life, and I wanna spend mine with you
One
Through the silence all I hear is one dry autumn leaf
Falling like my careful heart, then landing at your feet
I clear my nervous throat, sit here and hope and pray where this will lead
Once in every lifetime someone comes along
I guess Im trying to say that someones you, and I know where I belong
Theres only one, thing thats missin that will make my life complete
Theres only one, time with all my heart Ive known whats meant to be
Theres only one, man in this world who can love you like I do
You know we only get one life, and I wanna spend mine with you
One
It feels like more than just the moon is shinin down on us
And the tears in your smile say you love me as much
Theres only one kiss I long to feel my lips at night
Theres only one body that I want to hold until I die
Theres only one soul Ive ever really felt connected to
You know we only get one life and I wanna spend mine with you
Theres only one, wish I can make each time I see a falling star
Theres only one, place I wanna be and that is where you are
Theres only one, man in this world who can love you like I do
You know we only get one life
And I wanna spend mine with you, theres only one

The Beginning
tainted
has our love gone cold
in a place that's bitter and broken
we tasted of a world unknown
surely there must be something better
something forever
hello
from the world below
I'm watching the sun burning
as the road is slowly turning
well I know
that in letting go
I'm learning how to live
through a life I have to give
walking
past the city lights
silence can be so disturbing
you'll find me standing in the night
the stars never seem so unending
so unending
hello
from the world below
while I'm watching the sun burning
as the road is slowly turning
well I know
that in letting go
I'm learning how to live
through a life I have to give
but we painted
_ everything
without there remains our
shadows and the stones
tell me
where did we go wrong
can we just move on
hello
from the world below
while I'm watching the sun burning
as the road is slowly turning
when I know
that in letting go
I'm learning how to live
through a life I have to give
hello
to the world below
while I'm watching the world spinning
this night seems so unending
well I'll follow
to a place I know
that's only the beginning
start over after ending

Summer Days
Summer days are warm, and wonderfully long.
Deep down, within my heart, I feel a joyful song.
Gone are winter days, with their dowdy browns;
The trees and flowers now wear coloured crowns.
The natural world displays its bounteous beauty.
The soft, summer breeze is fragrant and fruity.
Bees, butterflies, and other bugs, now take flight.
Days of summer, feel so very cheerful and bright.
The days of winter can be so deeply depressing,
But now, their true selves, plants are expressing.
Suddenly, the world feels like a much better place,
And the happy smiles are evident on many a face.
The world, all about us, is given a golden glow,
Which illuminates Mother Nature's vibrant show.
Following the winter months: all dull and dreary;
We're treated to a display that's much more cheery.
Winter woodlands appear so very bland and bare,
But, come the summer, they look fabulous and fair.
Shafts of sunlight shine down through the tall trees;
The leaf laden branches rustle in the summer breeze.
Some secretly wish that summer could last forever;
That, all year round, we could enjoy warm weather.
Once summer is here, you hate for it to have to end;
You warm to it, as you would, to your dearest friend.

This World Is Magic
Dreams can make you fly
This world is magic
Rainbows in the sky
This world is magic to me
Dreams can make you fly
This world is magic
We need peace on earth
The second birth of paradise
This world is magic
This world is magic to me
This world is magic
What is the magic of this world
What is the magic of this world
What is the magic of this world
What is the magic of this world
What is the magic of this world
What is the magic of this world
We need peace on Earth
The second birth of paradise
This world is what we share
The nature and the air
Life could be paradise
Eternal peace is what we need
To live in harmony
For human history
Pray for a better world
When you close your eyes again
Planet Earth, that's the name of my place
I'm born in this world, in the entire space
Planet earth, is my home, is my face
Follow your trace embrace this human race
In case, there's a new decade in human history
I'm talking about respect this is my destiny
Feel free, and stop running away
From the doubt in your mind,- never fade to grey
Planet Earth, gentle and blue
Then cold as a rock, or ice without a hue
Planet earth, made out of dust
A big ball of metal, condemn to rust
Pray, let your soul be free
Find out how to heal a bleeding wound don't stand around
Life could be paradise, peace on earth is what I found
All around in a magic world from the air to the ground

Spaceman
Starry night bring me down
til I realize the moon
It seems so distant yet I felt it pass
Right through
So I see what I see
A new world is over me
So Ill reach up to the sky
And pretend that Im a
Spaceman, in another place and time
I guess Im lookin for a brand new
Place, is there a better life for me
Subtle wind blow me gone
Let me rest upon your move
I trust Ill end up sleeping
Cradled in my doom
So I feel what I feel
I cant grasp what is not real
So Ill get myself real high
And imagine Im a
Spaceman, in another place and time
I guess Im lookin for a brand new
Place, is there a better life for me
I remember in my mind
They say Im a daydreamin
Is it all that it seems
Or am I all the things Im looking for, yea
So I see what I see, a new world is over me
And Ill reach up to the sky
And pretend that Im a spaceman
In another place and time
I guess Im lookin for a brand new place
I remember living in a different life
Is there a better life for me

You Are Ii
You are more beautiful than sunset on Waikiki beach
You are so pleasing to the eyes that my soul cries out tears of joy
You are like the dawn that brings on a new day
You are like the dew makes the flowers grow each morning
You are as pure as the white sands of the Caribbean
You are like a starlit night in Negril Jamaica
You are as beautiful as the birds of Panama
You are as gentle as the flowers that blooms in a secret garden
You are mother earth and I a son of your creation
You are like the moon that lovers gaze upon
You are the light that shines through the great void in space and time
You are the beauty that cannot be denied nor summarized
You are all things great and small
You are the source that mere mortals cannot resist
You are the sun that brings life to the heavens
You are everything and everything is you
You are like a waterfall that its mist gently flows over my body
I would surrender my all for just one moment in your arms
I would spend every waking moment worshiping your grace
No pedestal could be high enough for you to sit upon
By your command men would lay down their very lives for you
Just hearing your voice sends men into frenzy
Just one word brings joy into this world
You are a living dream come to life incarnate
If you were a dream I would spend my life sleeping
I would never wake to face a day without you in it
I would stay comatose until a kiss from your lips sends me flying
You mean more than words could ever coherently be spoken
You are the embodiment of what a woman should be
There is no place I would rather be with than right by your side
Cuddling with you as like paradise taken twice fold
In all things I would put you first
You are more glamorous than any gown designed by Christian Dior
You are more fabulous than any diamond set upon Angelina Jolie’s finger
You are more precious that black pearls found of the shores of Tahiti
You are the spark that sets the world aflame
You are the nectar carried by the bees that is the delicacy of the gods
You are like the fabric of life worn to perfection
Sweet, filling, and delightful for you are life’s dessert
I will serve you humbly till time fades away

Without You
I fell for a man I only met twice
who do I turn to for some advice maybe she would know
yes she would only if I could ask her
only if I could tell her
only if I could tell anyone
bout that fabulous night
How did this happen, happen to me
when I swore I wouldn't let him
get close to me
Love is mysterious for this is so true
I hoped it could be
but only it’s with you
but I know we can never be an us
we can be an us yes
yes we can
a secret us
I had a dream, a beautiful dream of you
I try so hard not to think of this dream and dread
not being in your arms
for yet another night
For it is too painful and won't escape out of my head
I try to stop this
try to get the powerful feeling out of my head
And now all I ever do is cry when I wake up
as I feel your lips touch mine and reenact that incredible night
in my dream
I can't stop thinking about you because you're always on my mind
You are like a precious gem exquisite and ever hard to find
I call and I call to talk to you which is all great but I want more
I really need to tell you that I am so deep in pain
with out your love
I really don't mean to burden you with my teenage feelings
What I need right now is your understanding and compassion
there’s something I really should be telling you
something I since is so very true
if only I could speak
only if I could say just one line
if only that line could be
“I love you”
but it seams you’ve taken
you’ve taken the breath out of my chest
It's been a while but I can picture your face
I search and I search to see you from place to place
not ever finding you but still looking everywhere
You are a good person and I sense it
Please help me if you can - I don't know what to do
with out you
