That Is All I Ask

If you make decisions to put words in my mouth.
Words you put there to say come out.
Let me be there and others to witness this!
Let us hear what it is I am accused of saying.
And 'then' repeat what it is I've said that you admit.
Without one sound made coming from my lips.

Let me be there.
And others to witness this!
Let 'us' hear what it is I am accused of saying.
And 'then' repeat what it is I've said...
That you admit.
Without one sound made coming from my lips.

Let me be there to witness this.
That is all I ask!

Can I Get A Witness

Can I get a witness
Maybe you got faith
In where this is going
Maybe Ill pull up the stakes
And Ill be letting go
I could not believe
I could not believe
Can I get a witness, witness x3
You know a lot of times I think how big
And I feel lost on the zag zig now
I could not believe
I could not believe
Can I get a witness, witness x3
And some of these people are just so lame
I dont feel like a pupil
Just a loser on a game show
I just cant believe it
No, I cant believe it
Can I get a witness, witness x3
Im rooting for you
And I toasted when I heard about you
And how you got a witness
A citizen maybe in another place
Here comes the wind
Im a chaser
Its time to leave
Here comes
Its time to leave
Can I get a witness, witness (repeat)

Can I Get A Witness

(b. holland / l. dozier / e. holland)
Ah, listen everybody
Especially you guys
Is it right to be left alone
When the one you love is never home?
I love too hard
Yeah, my friends sometimes say
But I believe, oh I believe
That a boy should be loved that way
But it hurts me so inside
See him treat me so unkind
A-somebody, a-somewhere
Tell him it aint fair
Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
Somebody?
Is it right to be treated so bad?
When youve given everything you had
Keep on tossing in my sleep
cause I havent seen my baby all week
Now, you people you do agree
That this aint the way loves supposed to be
A-let me hear you
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Up early in the morning
With him on my mind
Just to find out all night
That Ive been crying
But I believe, oh, that a boy is a girls best friend
So, Im gonna stick by him til the very end
But he caused so much misery
I forget how loves supposed to be
Somebody, somewhere tell him
It aint fair
Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
I want a witness
Witness, witness, witness, witness
Everybody knows, especially you boys
That a love can be sad
But half a love is twice as bad
Now you people you do agree
That this aint the way loves supposed to be
Let me hear you
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah
I want a witness
Can I get a witness?
I want a witness
Come on, witness
I want a witness, hey
Come on, witness
I want a witness

Witness

I saw an ant devour sherman mountain.
Slip across the floor in the river of honey.
I saw the locust drinking from a fountain.
It smiled at me as I paid my money.
Chorus
Caus Im a witness, witness, see the writing on the wall.
Im a witness, witness, I say Ive seen it all.
Caus Im a witness, witness, Ive got all the proof.
Im a witness, witness, I swear to tell the truth.
I saw her buying in the face of fashion.
Wholl believe with her little white lies.
I saw her arrive on my bed of passion.
But I never saw a look of love in her eyes.
Chorus
Some days my eyes can see for miles and miles around.
Some nights my dreams just take me deep underground.
My minds a time machine, Im in the future and the past.
The past... scrape away...
(violin solo)

Can I Get A Witness ?

(holland, dozier, holland)
With steampacket
[produced by giorgio gomelsky, 1965]
Listen everybody, especially you girls
Do you liked to be left alone
By the one you love, never phone
I love to holler
My friends sometimes say
That I believe, I believe
That a woman should love that way
Well it hurts me so inside

Somebody somewhere

Somebody somewhere

Jump up early in the morning
With it on my mind

Accused Of Love

You speak to me in natural harmony
Like we both grew up with nothin
And I cant believe my own memory
But it one day could be coming
And I dont even know the wrong Ive done
And I dont even care anymore
All I know is I believe that you and me
Forever will stand accused of love
Watched the sun go down behind london town
I was burnt, stood up in mayfair
I caught a train, black car through the rain
From the trust that hung betrayed there
And I dont even know the wrong Ive done
And I dont even care anymore
All I know is I believe that you and me
Forever will stand accused of love
Well, the attorney grins, the witness is drug in
With his face half hid in shadow
Sworn to God and state the truth arrives too late
And defense goes out the window
And we dont even know the wrong weve done
And we dont even care anymore
All I know is I believe that you and me
Forever will stand accused of love
Will stand accused of love
Will stand accused of love

Not Even For a Hasty Taste

I understand your game too well.
And I don't want to play it.
You say we can rekindle a relationship?
Get over our past mistakes...
Forgive and forget?

I hear what you are saying.
And witness the words,
Coming from your lips.
I think we should appreciate,
Being able to reminisce like this.

But I do not welcome to revisit,
A place that drove me into mental fits.
Let's depart as friends...
With the realization,
The recipe we had and once enjoyed...
Does not today make a good mix.

Not even for a hasty taste,
To satisfy a temptation...
Familiarized to gratify,
With a quick lick!

You Brought The Sunshine

You made my day, you came my way
You heard me every, every time I prayed
You gave me peace, you gave me grace
You put a smile upon my face
Chorus:
You brought the sunshine (in my life)
You are the lifeline (saved my life)
Since then I have know Christ
There has been such a change in my life
You made my day, you came my way
You heard me every, every time I prayed
You gave me peace, you gave me grace
You put a smile upon my face
(chorus)
Jesus is the answer, breaks ever fetter
There's nothing impossible, nothing infallible
Nothing to hard for my God to work out
No matter what the problem
God can always solve 'em
Try Him today, He will brighten up your day
And He'll come your way, he will hear you when you pray
(chorus)
I'm a witness that Jesus will make a difference in your life
I'm a witness that Jesus will make a difference in your life
There's nothing impossible, nothing infallible
Nothing to hard for my God to work out
You brought the sunshine and you are the lifeline
You brought the sunshine and you are the lifeline
You brought the sunshine and you are the lifeline
You brought the sunshine and you are the lifeline
Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me
(I'm a witness that Jesus will make a difference in your life)
(I'm a witness that Jesus will make a difference in your life)
(I'm a witness that Jesus will make a difference in your life)
(I'm a witness that Jesus will make a difference in your life)
I once was lost but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see
You made, you made my day
You came, you came my way
You brought the sunshine in my life
and now I've got a joy divine
Your love it came and changed my day
And now I'm glad to go you way

Eye Witness

With faith I am committed to fulfill one wish!
To keep my blessings recognized.
With a focus on The Creator...
As an eye witness to be commanded.
And that is it.
With an attempt to keep this acknowledged.

Leaving the frills and temptations to tease,
To taste as I have done at times without hesitation.
And in prayer...
Discuss my mistakes made with The Creator.
Hoping my 'humanness' will be forgiven.
Since totally pious I am not!

I witness, I fumble and to this I admit!

Awuah

Of the land of olive oil and honey,
One witness is not enough to convict a man accused of a crime;
But, for the mouth of two people do tell it all for a case.
Awuah, the truth is always known by many;
For a picture is worth a thousand words than a letter.
From Lebanon and to the great river Euphrates,
And from Kadesh Barnea to Gaza;
Be very strong and very courageous at all times!

Cuz Youre Gone

You whispered in my mouth,
And I spit you words right back.
How good do you think Ill look,
When the words start to break and crack.
You beat your head upon your wall,
You disconnect yourself from it all.
Cuz you know that youre so beautiful and so untouchable,
And I want to get in so bad, and I dont know how.
Cuz your gone, and you aint coming back.
Yeah youre gone, and you aint coming back.
You held your hand so close,
And I just cant push you away.
I wished you could be my girl,
But youre stuck in your own world.
(repeat second)
(repeat third)
(repeat second)
(repeat third)
Yeah youre gone, and I wish youd come back.

Can You Hear Me ?

So you send them back
And I began to cry
But I can let you know
That I will let you go
You cover up your smile
And Im afraid to move
This time I get it right
Ill get somebody new
Youve got to sound that you mean it
(ooooh, ooooh)

Youve got to mean that you want it
(ooooh, ooooh)
(can you hear me)

Hey, when did this all start
Your (? ) stuff is your heart
And I have a night
When everything goes right

Too late to carry on
If I have a day
When everything goes wrong
Youve got to sound that you mean it

Youve got to mean that you want it

Until I get to see you
I spend my weekends on the phone
Ill make you listen
Ill write a letter every single day
Until I get an answer
Im gonna try every single way
I know, Im gonna find you
Youve got to sound that you mean it

Youve got to mean that you want it

Silent

I hear no voices inside my head.
I hear no echoes in the wind.
Everything is silent.

I now know how the deaf must feel.
A world with no sound.
Words that don't speak.
Silent.

Well I guess it's wrong of me
to compare my writer's block
to the deaf, but that how I
feel.

Lost, and frustrated.
Seeing lips move but unable hear the words.
I'm a poet who wants to speak but no sound
do I hear.
Silent!

Japa-yajna

Carrier wave; sine curve; you see it
on the heartscan lifescreen
in the intensive care ward

as if with no regard for you
it’s self-sufficient; sufficient to the self;

the same curve that the flute’s note makes onscreen,
pure as Krishna’s smile; his lips
making breath into sound

hear that, hear that which
runs day and night; repetition
that always never does repeat

and only when you’re still
will you know with Krishna

the sound of inner sacrifice
that never ends and yet
so pure it’s given beyond sought;

flute’s sound beyond all sound;
how still the room is now.

Dead Leaves & The Dirty Ground

Dead leaves and the dirty ground
when I know you're not around
shiny tops and soda pops
when I hear your lips make a sound (2x)
Thirty notes in the mailbox
will tell you that I'm coming home
and I think I'm gonna stick around
for a while so you're not alone (2x)
If you can hear a piano fall
you can hear me coming down the hall
if I could just hear your pretty voice
I don't think I need to see at all (2x)
Soft hair and a velvet tongue
I want to give you what you give to me
and every breath that is in your lungs
is a tiny little gift to me (2x)
I didn't feel so bad till the sun went down
then I come home
no one to wrap my arms around (2x)
Well any man with a microphone
can tell you what he loves the most
and you know why you love at all
if you're thinking of the holy ghost (2x)

The Proof Is In The Pudding

What on Earth is going on with them over there?

'I was approached to give my opinion,
Concerning the world affairs.
And all I said was...
The proof is in the pudding.
The truth in it has been revealed.
And before I knew it,
That's what they began to do.
I'm sure the store owner is thrilled.'

But...
How is the dumping of pudding mixes,
Out into the street...
Connect to your comments made?

'Observe to witness this.
That's all I have to say.
It never ceases to amaze me,
How people re-act to what they hear.'

You don't think they took your figurative comments,
Literally...
Do you?

'Observe to witness this.
That's all I have to say.'

What do you think they are hoping to find?

'Something that reminds them of truth.
Or proof of it.
Who knows? '

I'm not going to say what they are doing is stupid.

'Don't even let that cross your mind.
Just observe it to witness.
The proof is in the pudding.'

Up On The Downside

This england made me
Between the war and a rockets flying
You found the crib that saves me
And teach me wrong and right
Then the world was talking
It never got its chance to say
When theres too much talking
Nobody hears the words you say
You wont see
Baby now I want you
These blind communications
Only last throughout the year
And half of what were saying
Is halfway in a truth
And blind communications
For a million hearts and fools
I am a witness
To a land of a million fools
All placing bets on life
Then hate the ones you lose
And all the lonely
Never get the chance to say
That their one and only
Would be the chance to even play
Repeat chorus
Hello monday
The week is just a blur
Ive been burning bridges
And now Im begging at your door
So I keep on working
cause its a chance for me to pay
But too much talking
When you believe the words I say
Repeat chorus
