Love's Sweet Sickness

It always fills me with surprise,
The way you control my thoughts and hypnotise
My heart, whatever little disguise
I care to wear, however nonchalant
I try to be. Can you see
That whenever I look into your eyes
I know I'll never be free?
You are my jailor, you have the keys!
Can love really be such a dreadful disease
That whoever contracts it always dies?
Oh, surely this is fantasy,
A poet's gilded lies!
And yet, indeed, you mean so much to me
That I really do not care
Anymore, you can do as you please,
I'm willing now to be your slave
From this day forward till I reach my grave,
And if I die
Of Love's sweet sickness
Then no-one will wonder why!

Love In Disguise

Sometimes things fall apart
That's god's love in disguise
And when i break your heart
That's my love in disguise
When you awake in pain
It should come as no surprise
I'm not sure i care
But it still must be there
My love in disguise
And all you want are sweet lies
I see my problem now
Her love was in disguise
Some fear that won't allow
Her love to shed this guise
Ian, don't be a fool
Look what she's done
She'll do it again
Pale, pure, and virgin things
So frail, it turns from my eyes
It hides while i become
So hurt my heart is numb
When love is in disguise
The best you have is sweet lies
Ian she'll be our downfall
Don't believe your eyes
Lies! and she'll leave you all alone
Possessiveness and jealousy
We recognize easily
That which we claim to prize
No one can recognize
The poor young sap is unaware of
Things that we are all aware of
The knife she hides behind her back
Misery! he gets his share of
The flowers must pollinate
The beasts are forced to mate
Woman and man decide
Yet we're not satisfied
God's love is in disguise
And all we want are sweet lies
Sweet lies
Long live the glorious revolution

I Was A Fool To Care

I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
But I dont care even if I was a fool
Im still in love with you
Had I listened to the grapevine
I might have had my doubts
But I did my level best just to block them out
cause love is so unwise and love has no eyes
And it took a while for a fool to see
What his friends were on about
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
But I dont care even if I was a fool
Im still in love with you
Imagining your face
It almost fills the empty space before me
I can see you eyes and almost hear your lovely lies
I wish I was an old man
And love was through with me
I wish I was a baby on my mamas knee
I wish I was a freight train moving down the line
Just keeping track of time
Without all these memories
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
But I dont care even if I was a fool
Im still in love with you
Baby, yes, I am
I could have opened my eyes
I could have seen through your lies
I could have stood for no more
I could have walked out the door
But I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care
But I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care
You werent nothing but a fool to care; just a country fool to care.

Adultress

Don't worry, I can see them in your eyes,
The little fishes swimming there, the lies
You told this evening to those other guys.....
I've loved you for so long now, so many years
And it comes as no surprise
You've been deceiving me again,
Nor is there any pain,
Nor tears
Like once upon a time.
In fact, I find it oh so amusing,
Your secret little crime
And all the elaborate cunning of your disguise.

Surely, dear heart, you realize
That whatever you've said or done
On any of your escapades,
I just don't care.
It doesn't matter any more.

Is this the way love dies?

I Don't Care Anymore

Well you can tell ev'ryone I'm a down disgrace
So drag my name all over the place.
I don't care anymore. (I don't care)
You can tell ev'rybody 'bout the state I'm in
You won't catch me crying 'cos I just can't win.
I don't care anymore I don't care anymore
I don't care what you say
I don't play the same games you play.
'Cos I've been talking to the people that you call your friends
And it seems to me there's a means to and end.
They don't care anymore. (they don't care)
And as for me I can sit here and bide my time
I got nothing to lose if I speak my mind.
I don't care anymore I don't care no more
I don't care what you say
We never played by the same rules anyway.
I won't be there anymore
Get out of my way
Let me by
I got better things to do with my time
I don't care anymore I don't care anymore
I don't care anymore I don't care anymore
Well, I don't care now what you say (I don't care what you say)
'Cos ev'ry day (everyday)
I'm feeling fine with myself (I'm feeling fine with myself)
And I don't care now what you say (I don't care what you say)
Hey I'll do alright by myself (I'll be alright by myself)
I don't care (I don't care) anymore (anymore)
I don't care (I don't care) anymore (anymore)
I don't care (I don't care) anymore (anymore)
I don't care anymore
Do you care? Hell no!
Do you care? Hell no!
Do you care? Hell no!

Do you care? Hell no!
Do you care? Hell no!

Do you care? Hell no!
Do you care? Hell no!

Do you care? Hell no!
Do you care? Hell no!
Do you care? Hell no!
What what?
'Cos I remember all the times I tried so hard
And you laughed in my face 'cos ya held all the cards.
I don't care anymore.
And I really ain't bothered what you think of me
'Cos all I want of you is just a let me be.
I don't care anymore
Did you hear? I don't care no more
I don't care what you say
I never did believe you much anyway.
We won't be there any more
So get out of our way.
Let us by
We got better things to do with our time
We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore

Man Or Animal

You give me a heart attack
You look like the summertime
You call me an artifact
But I'll save that for another time
I could be rich or poor
I don't need anymore
Keep your love inside the kitchen
You can feed me anything
Leave the feathers on the chicken
Peel the leather from your skin
I can be young or old
Sweet or sad, hot or cold
Chorus
Man or animal, I don't care at all
Find the antidote underneath the dose
Man or animal, obidient
out of control
I will love you more than money
I will breathe you in the smoke
I will drink you in my honey
Sweet and golden down my throat
When you're right, when you're wrong
Head is near, eyes are gone
You can drown my appetite
I will sip your tears at night
You can tie me to a chair
Skin and bones, I don't care
I could be rich or poor
I don't need anymore
Chorus
Man or animal, I don't care at all
Find the antidote underneath the dose
Man or animal, obedient
out of control
Man or animal, I don't care at all
Find the antidote underneath the dose
Man or animal, obedient
out of control
out of control
You give me a heart attack
I will give you more than that
You give me a heart attack
I will give you more than that

Rest Of My Life

Suddenly, it happened so fast
I couldn't believe the news that I received
My heart stopped as I hit the floor
I fell to my knees cryin' Lord help me
No matter what time brings
All the changes we go through
In life there's some things
We just can't prepare for
I don't care what they say
Don't care what they do
I don't care what they think
I'm gonna love you for the rest of my life
Don't they know
True love never dies
I promise to love you for the rest of my life
Life goes on that's what they say
Time will heal all your pain away
But I feel, feel so alone and
Now you're gone how can I live on
No matter what time brings
All the changes we go through
In life there's some things
We just can't prepare for
I don't care what they say
Don't care what they do
I don't care what they think
I'm gonna love you for the rest of my life
Don't they know
True love never dies
I promise to love you for the rest of my life
Until I see you again
I'll hold on to sweet memories
I'll treasure the times we spent
I see I'd do anything
I see your face, I see your smile
Callin' out my name
I don't care what they say
Don't care what they do
I don't care what they think
I'm gonna love you for the rest of my life
Don't they know true love never dies
I promise to love you for the rest of my life
I don't care what they say
Don't care what they do
I don't care what they think
I'm gonna love you for the rest of my life
I don't care what they say
I don't care what they do
What they think
'Cause I promise, I promise
To love you for the rest of my life
(for the rest of my life

Little Lies

If I could turn the page
In time then Id rearrange just a day or two
Close my, close my, close my eyes
But I couldnt find a way
So Ill settle for one day to believe in you
Tell me, tell me, tell me lies
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you cant disguise
(you cant disguise, no you cant disguise)
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
Although Im not making plans
I hope that you understand theres a reason why
Close your, close your, close your eyes
No more broken hearts
Were better off apart lets give it a try
Tell me, tell me, tell me lies
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you cant disguise
(you cant disguise, no you cant disguise)
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
If I could turn the page
In time then Id rearrange just a day or two
Close my, close my, close my eyes
But I couldnt find a way
So Ill settle for one day to believe in you
Tell me, tell me, tell me lies
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you cant disguise
(you cant disguise, no you cant disguise)
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you cant disguise
(you cant disguise, no you cant disguise)
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies

Pensive Thought

Your youthful beauty found peace on your face
As thy wandered the path of love of the past
Effeminate and innocent where love took its place
In the memory of your heart, where your first love last

Pensive thou long in love's sweet air
And think of love inundated in potion
Thy look so grave, in its grave thy stare
With all your love, in love's sweet motion

My heart knew then, that thou heart I wear
The look of my love, forever and soft
When thou pensively dream with out a care
My love raises with thou pensive thought aloft

But If You Don’t Love Me Anymore

If you change and don’t love me anymore
If you don’t really care anymore
If you don’t laugh at my jokes
Or does not like my hug
Or kisses
Or my company
If you change

Just say it clearly
No pretenses, no covers, no ambiguities
Nothing equivocal

No regrets

I can manage
I can change too
I can change you too

Lots of them, and they will love me too

Now go. I’ll find another.
There is no bother. No problem.

Leave, while I keep words unkind
Within. Leave while still early, and
Be kind to yourself.

Now we are free, from our
Hypocrisy. Receive the fullness of

This
Blessing in disguise. At last, I am free.

My prayer is too, granted.

if you really do not love me anymore
say it clearly

because i don't
love you anymore too.

Love Dont Love You

Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care
Love dont love you, love dont care
Verse 1:
You said youd always be there
You said youd always care
You always comfort me
You used to share things with me
You used to have time for me
Now it all seemed to end
I cant control my fears
Neither hold back tears
Knowing that somethings wrong, yeah
The more that I fight with you
The more I realize
It takes more than love
To satisfy my life
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care (its got to be you, baby)
Love dont love you, love dont care (not love, baby)
Verse 2:
I thought I never would see
The day that you and me
Could not communicate
It came to my surprise
The only reason why
We misused the four-letter words
I should have known the signs
Instead I was blind
Ignoring what people would say
When will I ever learn
Cant blame it all on one word
Some words can seem more brutal than kind
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care (love dont love you)
Love dont love you, love dont care (got to be you)
Love dont love you (love dont care about you, no way, no way, no way)
Love dont care no way
Bridge:

You see it takes a fool to learn
That love dont love nobody (got to be you)
But Ive learned
That love dont love me
And it sure cant love you (can only be you, oh)
So what are you gonna do
Dont just say you love me (baby)
You got to show me (show me that you care)
So where do we go from here
You tell me
You got to show me that you love me
Show me that you care
I need to know that you will always be there
Im gonna be there for you
Love dont love no one
And it sure dont care
Love dont love nobody
You should take my advice
Show me that you love me
Show me that you care, baby
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care
Love dont love you, love dont care
(repeat chorus)

Blessing In Disguise

Well, I guess you know
You took me by surprise
When you told me that youd broken all the rules
And the future felt as empty as your eyes
When I realized how far I was from you.
Chorus:
But they tell me that the truthll set you free
>from the sad confusion of your lies
And it led me to a side of you that Id refused to see
So I guess its been a blessing in disguise
So theres nothing left to keep us holding on, now
To the mystery we used to be before
What we ever shared together there is gone, now
And what might have been dont matter anymore.
Chorus:
But they tell me that the truthll set you free

And I Dreamt Of You

i see thy love in the distance
breathless gasping for air, for in thy dreams you where
awakening to the bleakness in my room
as my eyes begin to blear reality sets and starts the fear
for do dreams come true or do i die alone
waiting like the petals of a wilting flower fall off
until there is non and the once beautiful flowers dies naked
with no one to clothe it
will i hold you in the grave or will the grave hold me?
the numbing dreams never end the swallow's wings still amonsgt
the idle wind
my colored wold turns to grayscale
recollecting the memories eyes covered hazel
contradiction of thy thoughts standing calm love not lost
searching till i find my princess whose passionate eyes
cut right through me
for what is life if love only exists in thy thoughts?
what is romance if it is all fiction?
nothing but a portrait left empty, a passing cloud of hurt
by to meet ym love in the flesh is to find my whole heart
your heart breaks though me your love is the key
longing for my hearts door
to what day till i see sunrays shine upon your face
i dream of you the way you look
the beating of love in your heart
your wolds are like the flowing of a spring, knowing thy love
waits for me until eternity's end
is this poetry or is this love's sickness
engulfing my every being
take the heart from you and the blood ceases from me
i see what you hear
breathe taking the closest thing to me and my savior
falling in love to a person i have never met
but knowing she has salvation's fragrance
by God's grace this love will be free and able to fly away above
the earth to a point of exhaustion
but your breath will keep me alive
words are pointless for this love is speechless
preparing fro the cur

You told me its a dream to be
the one who spends the night with me
we made love till the morninglight
and you did everything just right
I dont care if you love me
cause i dont love you anymore

i know it cant be good for me
The love left at the break of dawn
while you were sleeping, sleeping on

Ill Never Set You Free

Theres nothing I can say
Theres nothing I can do
To show you the love
That I got for you
Theres nothing in this world
That could ever take your place
When I look into your eyes
I see a sweet face
Ill never set you free
till you give your love to me
cos I love you (Ill never set, set you free)
And I need you (Ill never set, set you free)
Yes I want you (Ill never set, set you free)
cos I love you (Ill never set, set you free)
Will you open up your heart
So love could make a start
I know that if you do
Dreams will come true
Ill never set you free
till you give your love to me

And I need you (Ill never set, set you free)
Yes I want you (Ill never set, set you free)

Ill never set you free

Theres nothing you can do

Hypnotise

I can't help it when you're near me
I don't think straight, I get all confused
I just lose all my concentration
With no question at all I'd surrender to you
Standing here so close together
I can feel all the magic again
But I'm holding back the emotion
Couldn't take anymore of the heartache and pain
I know I should take it slow but,
The minute I see you I just let go
Chorus :
Cos you, baby, you hypnotise
I just have to look in your eyes
I'm in a daze, I lose control
Deeper inside my mind
I'm leaving the real world behind
I give to you my heart and my soul
It's a gamble, can we take it
Playing safe is no way to survive
There's a chance for us, we can make it
Give our love room to breathe to keep it alive
Admit that we made mistakes but
I know in my heart that it's not too late
Chorus :
Cos you, baby, you hypnotise
I just have to look in your eyes
I'm in a daze, I lose control
Deeper inside my mind
I'm leaving the real world behind
I give to you my heart and my soul
It feels like I'm falling in love with you all over again
And I'm trying not to let it show
But the minute I see you I just let go
I just have to look in your eyes
I'm in a daze, I lose control

A Beauty

How many times have we
travelled down a road
merely out of curiosity,
and as we move down it
something there takes us by surprise.
Something insignificant
somehow catches our eye.
We stop and stare
at the beauty consummated there.
A beauty that fills our heart
with the passion we identify as love.
We are confused not knowing what to do.
Before us lies, our future
if we make the right approach
or our downfall if we turn away.
Do we stride forward
or do we hesitate and take care.
The decision is only ours
in what we should do.

Addicted to Love

I'm addicted to love's sweet sickness,
I'm a slave, but I can sing in heavy chains,
I'll never ask for your forgiveness,
My tears adore September's rains.

I'm sick, but what is my disease?
Misunderstood and left alone,
An old piano, with no fingers on the keys,
My words, my tongue turned into a stone.

I am a songbird scared by the birds of prey,
I sing my song without a word,
Why do you go, why can't you stay?
Why is my silence never heard?

I promise my love now to you,
You know the song that's in my heart,
Above the clouds, the skies are blue,
Don't wrench our stars apart.

Why Should I Care?

Back in the day
When I was younger
I wasnt afraid
Of giving my heart to you
Now and again
I get sentimental
But I know its just a phase Im going through
And every time I start to slip
I just remind myself
I need only think of it
I went through so much hell
You say ya wanna get things back
The way they used to be
Can you give me one good reason
Why should I darlin
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care
Back in the day
I shoulda been wiser
But what can I say
I shoulda been onto you
But I was afraid
That youd break my heart in two
Fate would have it that you broke it anyway baby
And every time I close my eyes
I just remind myself
You told about a million lies
You put my heart through hell
And now you wanna get with me
Just for old times sake
Well I am not about to make that same mistake
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care
You see a girl that you gave all your love
I see a girl you took advantage of
You see a girl that you cannot forget
I see a man that I cannot forgive
Tell me why
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care
Back in the day when I was young
I wasnt afraid to love
Back in the day
You were the one what was I thinking of
Back in the day
Shoulda been wiser
Shoulda been onto you
But I was afraid I make a mistake
No one knows
