Deliver Me
I'm tired of feeling hateful
I'm tired and I can't breathe
So tired that I would be grateful
If you close the door when you leave
That's me diggin' my heels in
That's me with the holy ghost
'Scuse me but I don't remember
Where were you when I needed you most
And I'm tied to the sky
As you claw at my eyes
And I wait for the flood
I swim in blood
As I crawl to my knees
And I beg your disease
Taste the ice on your breath
As you catch your death
I close my eyes
Embrace me
Deliver me
Hey you the voice of reason
Hey you are you listening to me
It's you that I can't believe in
I don't buy what I don't see
Say good-bye 'cause I don't need
[Repeat Chorus]
[Repeat Chorus]
I close my eyes
Embrace the wave
Abandon me
Save the day
That I won't see
Deliver me

House Is Not My Home
Well I'm tired, so tired of getting up and wasting another day
I wish the picture on the wall would still say it all
But now yesterday is so far away
And I would give anything, say anything
To keep it all like it was
But you just throw it all away
And I think this house is not my home
I think that I'd rather be alone tonight
I'm trying, trying to fake it
I'm tired, so tired, of giving up and taking all the blame
I wish the shouting and the fights would stop for the night
Can't close my eyes and make them all go away
And I would give anything, say anything
To keep it all like it was
But you just throw it all away
Repeat Chorus
This is the part where you say
You can't stay together just for me
This is the part where you make me choose
On whose side I want to be
This is the part where you decide
What's going to be best for me
This is the start
Now we grow apart (x2)

Live It Up Tonight
We're strong, we're weak, we're tired
We're straight, we're gay, we're bi
We're black, we're white, why
To tell the truth, we lie
We get so trapped inside our little lives
They disappear, before our very eyes
Chorus
So come on live it up tonight
Live it up tonight, move on
It's time we gave it up tonight
Live it up tonight
We won, we lost, we tried
Be a saint, I'm fine cos I died
I'm so sick and tired of crying
So tonight, it's time, just fly
So now we got so close
Caught up in the deal
The only thing we had is real
Repeat chorus
So we can keep it, make it real
Can't you feel
Though it hurts so bad
To say goodbye
I know my love for you
Is still alive

Close Another Door
Many years have passed, it seems,
And I am all alone.
Ive sent the children far away
To some obscure unknown.
(chorus)
Its so sad,
So sad.
Close another door.
Listen to my eyes.
Close another door.
Youre much too old to work,
So wont you run away?
I was young, I used to say
That age wont bother me.
The life I had was very sad,
It all went out to sea
(repeat chorus)
Though the sun is in outside,
The rain is in my hair.
Now my life is lived inside,
My home is in my chair.
(repeat chorus)
(slower...repeat...fade)
Let me go.
Send me flowers and
Put me on a plane.
Ive paid before,
So Ive been told
At least Im alive

Platinum Blonde Life
I'm closing all the curtains
So don't you even bother
And I'm calling out the murder
But I'm underneath the covers
But who's fooling who
With this mood like a train
Watch me roll over
Get out of my way
[Chorus:]
There's a knock on my door
But I'm not gonna open it
I'm gonna close my eyes
And maybe it will go away
I want a platinum blonde life
So I keep bleaching out the colors
I try to do what I oughta
But never drink enough water
Where did my lover go?
I really wish he could stay
I feel it's empty as a widow
I'm gonna sleep it all away
[Repeat chorus]
I'm gonna sleep all trough the day
I'm gonna asleep my life away
I'm gonna sleep all through the day
I'm gonna sleep myself away
I'm gonna close my eyes and maybe it'll go away
[Repeat chorus]
I'm gonna close my eyes and maybe it will go away

Sweet Dreams
(graham russell)
This is the time when you need a friend
You just need someone near
Im not looking forward to the night I will spend
Thinking of you when youre not here
How many times will I think about the things
Id like to do
Always denied the right to live my life the way I want
I want to share it with you
(chorus)
Close your eyes I want to ride the skies
In my sweet dreams
Close your eyes I want to see you tonight
In my sweet dreams
Ill think of your kiss as the days roll by
And Ill write the words you love
And what I cant say in a letter
Will just have to wait till I get home
Ooh theres not much time to tell you half the things I should
Only that Im so glad I fell in love with you
And Id do it again if I could
(chorus)
Close your eyes I want to ride the skies
In my sweet dreams
Close your eyes I want to see you tonight
In my sweet dreams
(repeat chorus)
Sleep like a child resting deep
You dont know what you give me I keep
For these moments alone
(chorus)
Close your eyes I want to ride the skies
In my sweet dreams
Close your eyes I want to see you tonight
In my sweet dreams

The Ones You Love
Astley/west
Children cry on the street
They dont have enough to eat
Mothers wait for days to end
A hopeless situation they cant mend
Is it good for you?
Is it good for me?
I dont know how the world can sleep
Its just not right to close the door turn out the light
(chorus)
Theyd better be the ones you love
The children ought to get some love
If no-one else should get enough
Theyd better be the ones you love
Daddy waits there in line
A little work he hopes to find
Something wrong with times like these
Its enough to bring a man down to his knees
Is it good for you?
Is it good for me?
I dont know how the world can sleep
Its just not right to close the door turn out the light
(repeat chorus)

Last Night, Evry Night
(bob morrison, jim zerface, bill zerface)
I watch you as you wake and rub your eyes and try to hide them from the
Morning sun
I whisper how ya doing and you smile and say so tenderly good morning
Hun
Chorus:
Last night you made his memory fade a little
You helped me see how love can still be right
I wish you didnt have to leave
If you just knew how much I need
Last night, evry night
I know you have to catch a plane to memphis
And you mentioned its an early flight
You start to pack
And while I comb my hair
I stare at you and think about last night
Cause (repeat chorus)
I slip into my robe to go make coffee
You come in and pull me close to you
And as I feel your tender kiss
I whisper cant memphis wait a day or two

We Close Our Eyes
We close our eyes
We close our eyes and dream and the world has turned around again
When everybody is running in the big race
And having a good time
Who am I to cast a shadow
Who am i?
I looked death in the face last night
I saw him in a mirror
And he simply smiled
He told me not to worry
He told me just to take my time
Chorus:
We close our eyes and the world has turned around again
We close our eyes and dream and another year has come and gone
We close our eyes and the world has turned around again
We close our eyes and dream ...
And if you come to me
And if you touch my hand
I might just slip away
I might just disappear
Who am i?
And if you think Im worth it
And if you think its not too late
We might start falling
If we dont try to hard
We might start falling in love
(chorus)
Were on the healing path
Were on a roller coaster ride
That could never turn back
And if you love me
And if you really try
To make the seconds count
Then we can close our eyes
(chorus)
We close our eyes and the world has turned around again

Killing The Blues
Leaves were falling ..just like embers
In colors red and gold they set us on fire
Burning just like a moonbeam ..in our eyes
Chorus:
Somebody said they saw me
Swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud.
Killing the blues
I am guilty of something
I hope you never do because there is nothing
Sadder than losing .. yourself in love

Repeat chorus:
Now, you ask me just to leave you
To go out on my own and get what I need to
You want me to find ..what Ive already had

When I Close my Eyes
When I close my eyes,
I can see my country,
Shining in the light, bright.
When I close my eyes.
When I close my eyes,
I see the trees,
Green against the skyline.
When I close my eyes.
When I close my eyes,
I see stars shining cross,
The wide beyond.
When I close my eyes.
When I close my eyes,
I see the sunset behind your hair,
Halo shining in the air.
When I close my eyes.
When I close my eyes,
I hear the ocean waves,
Crashing on the shore.
When I close my eyes.
When I close my eyes,
I see the moon glistening,
Through your eyes.
When I close my eyes.

Before I Close my Eyes
Before I close my eyes to sleep the last sound I must hear is your voice saying I love you.
Before I close my eyes to sleep the last thing my lips must press up against is yours.
Before I close my eyes to sleep the last thing my eyes must gaze upon in yours.
Before I close my eyes to sleep the last touch I must feel is the warmth of your embrace.
I must do all these things before I close my eyes every night because tomorrow is not promise, and if tonight should be my last night I want it to end with you.
Tied To The 90's
We're tied to the 90's
in the middle
It's terribly frightening
I'm takin' it fast
Takin' it slow
There's thunder and lightning
It's terribly frightening
Lord knows
Where it goes
But I know
That if so
Well I want to tell you
We're tired of the 90's
We're tired of the 90's
But we're tied to the 90's
Tied to the 90's
Remember the 80's
(They were something)
Were worse than the 90's
We're stuck in a path
Where fashion is fast
And nothin' is lasting
It's all ghetto blasting
And Lord knows
Where it goes
But I know
That if so well I want to tell you
We're tired of the 90's
We're tired of the 90's
Tied to the 90's
"Middle 8"
We're tired of the 90's
We're tired of the 90's
We're tired of the 90's
But we're tied to the 90's

Have A Little Faith
Dry those tears
From your eyes
Maybe I can help you
A few more hours until the light
And I will hold you
You've waited patiently
Don't ever doubt your faith in me
Baby, hold on a little longer
Chorus:
And when the night is falling
And it's more than you can take
Remember that I love you
Have a little faith
And just like the morning
I'll be there when you awake
Close your eyes, right now, I'm on my way
If you just have a little faith
Even now my heart has wings
I can't wait to see you
As I lie beside you in my dreams
I can't wait to touch you
Tonight my body lives
To cross the miles, to kiss your lips
Baby, hold on a little longer
Chorus:
And when the night is falling
And it's more than you can take
Remember that I love you
Have a little faith
And just like the morning
I'll be there when you awake
Close your eyes, right now, I'm on my way
If you just have a little faith
Have a little faith in me right now

Its All Wrong, But Its All Right
Hello, are you free tonight
I like your looks, I love your smile
Could I use you for a while
Its all wrong, but its all right
The amber sunset glow has died
My needs are very much alive
Is it ok if I stop by
Its all wrong, but its all right

Its all wrong, but its all right
Just close your eyes and hold me tight
Tell me sexy lovin lines
Its all wrong, but its all right
It may be wrong if we make love
But I just need someone so much
And who knows it might last for life
Its all wrong, but its all right

Tell me sexy lovin lines

Close Your Eyes
Oh come and take me away
I want to be with you
There's nothing more to say
Could my wish come true
Can you hear me now
I'm screaming it aloud
I wish you'd come somehow
Oh hear me now
I know that you
Have a lot to say
But can you
Pick some other day
To tell me anything but
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Can you
Just close your eyes
For me
Tonight
Just like a bird
You give me wings
Just like a star
You make me sing
It's unbelieveable
What you can do to me
And indescribable
How happy I can be
And I can't go on forever
Without us being together
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Can you
Just close your eyes
For me
Tonight
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Right now
Just hold me tight
And forget everything
Tonight
Right now
Don't think at all
I'll be here when you need me
To catch you when you fall
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Can you
Just close your eyes
For me
Tonight
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Can you
Just close your eyes
For me
Tonight
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Can you
Just close your eyes
For me
Tonight

Rock In A Hard Place
It was a take it or a leave it
On a saturday night
I wish i could love you 'til the cats come home
And make it right
If it's a make believe i say
I ain't tell you then
'cause if it's a dream my memories wake me up
And start again
Oh, close your eyes and what do you see
Oh, look overhow you could do with your only believes
(chorus)
She was a real top manner
Lots of nothing other
Hard core biloozy
Late night rubber
A second hand clothes
Smiling like a cheshire cat
Well it was either now or walkin down the urchin' moon
Only a certain situation you could see i'm who
Putting the ring around the rose n' pull the daisy chain
Well, we are here, can tell me you ain't with that bachelor thing
Oh, close your eyes and what do you see
Oh, nothing but hammer to you with your only decease in me
(chorus)
If you have wanna won with me
You're not to have be here tonight
Want you to hold it down
And let me lose a rock me right
Want you to get it on i'm your main man
Brother you never learned
Come on and rock again
Oh, close your eyes and what do you see
Rumbelin' happy to do with your only believes in me

Everytime I Close My Eyes
Do you remember,
The time we used to spend,
Doing what, we used to do back then,
But the only thing,
Thats different now,
You wont admit your love,
Thats if you love me again.
Every time I close my eyes,
The visions reappear,
And when I wake up youre not there.
Could you fall in love with me again?
Cause all I see is you,
Every time I close my eyes.
When you look at me,
I wish that you were mine once again,
Cause now I love you,
More than I did then.
And im hoping.
That we can mend it all back,
Cause when were together,
The spark is there and the flame comes
Back.
Chorus
Should I say this to you,
And just let it go,
Tell you what I feel,
And just let it show,
No matter how hard
That I think this through,
My feelings are the same,
Im in love with you.
Chorus
Cause all I see is you,
Every time I close my eyes,
Every time I close my eyes,
Every time I close my eyes.

Hunting dreams
Please, do not follow me any more
I am tired of your shadow and of your kisses in my dreams.
Let me go, and please return to where you belong.
You know I cannot go with you there where you going.
Do not hunting me and my dreams, and don’t close my eyes
Let me go, because it is impassible to love a ghost
Don’t hunting me and my dreams any more…and don’t close my eyes, because you can’t possessed me, I’m not a toy! !
Return to your twilight zone and close the door behind you.
In addition, do not even thing about it coming back to hunting my dreams. I will become your hunting nightmare!

Fallin
Everytime I think of you
The woman all my life been waiting
Theres nothing that Id rather do
Than love you endlessly
Dont know what you see in me
Girl you bring out the best in me
And I realize when I look in your eyes
Theres nothing that I can do
Chorus:
Catch me Im fallin
Head over heels in love with you
Oh bless me fallin
And no one can do
Catch me Im fallin
And my heart is like brand new
Im falling in love, falling in love
With you
Everytime I see your face
Its like sunshine on a cloudy day
Its a feeling that cant be replaced
Like the feeling when we embrace
Out of everything that you do to me
For your love Ill do almost everything
And I realize when I look in your eyes
Theres nothing that I cannot do
Chorus
Now tell me how much you love me
And show me how much you need
Im waiting right here for you
Whenever you need
Im fallin, fallin, fallin in love with you

I'm Tired Of It All
I am tired of it all
I am tired of today
I am tired of the summer heat-
I am tired of all the years of trying to be something
And still being nothing and no one
I am tired of myself and my ambition
I am tired of reading the great poems of others
I am tired of Poetry
I am tired of being old
I am tired of no longer having the means to help those I care for-
I am tired of having written for so many years
And having so little to show for it-
I am tired of being an old man getting older -
I am tired of being afraid of what is going to happen to me
And those close to me
I am tired of having so many sick friends-
I am tired of having more and more people I have known who are dead
I am tired of a world in which violence and stupidity play such a great part
I am tired of all the problems that should have been solved years ago
And yet persist-
I am tired of cruelty
I am tired of rudeness and petty selfishness
I am tired of seeing the evil get away with it
I am tired truly tired
Tired of being tired also
Tired of myself and my complaints-
And my failure all these years
To make things right-
And yet and yet with all the tiredness
I know there is so much else even in myself-
I still want to live and dream and hope and help those I love
I still want to write still a few lines of poetry
that will be read by others
And help them
Dream to begin again
I still want to give to those I love
The little I still have to give
I still want to live
For life itself is life itself is still good
Despite the tiredness.
