Sweet Sorrows***************1978
we met many years ago
in a time which we forgot.
i had really loved you
but you had loved me not.
you had taken me for granted
and turned my love aside.
you said you could'nt love me
and turned and said goodbye.
the years have come and gone
since that heartbreak night.
now we meet again in a
swinging dicoteque with lights.
you see me doing the hustle
with all the girls in sight.
my back is turned towards you
as you walk out to the floor.
you walk right up to me
as i had done before.
the thoughts flash through your mind
as i laugh and say 'goodbye'.

How Strong
(chorus)
How strong is my love?
How strong is my love?
How strong is my love?
How wrong could it be?
Ill walk a water mile
Rest a while to kiss your smile
Laugh and roll and after a while
Ill begin to like your style
(bridge)
How strong is my love?
How wrong could it be?
She turned me down this time
She turned me down
Lord, I cant believe she
She turned me down
She turned me inside out
She turned me down
All I ask of you
Is turn me up this time
(chorus)
Come on over show me your
Your glow soul I do adore
Ill be sure to drop my guard
Give it up its not that hard
(bridge)
(chorus)
Tested life but thats alright
Darker than the darkest night
Living hell and pollocks at you
Getting new down your back
How strong is my love?
How wrong could it be?

Just Not True
(carly simon)
You stick to me when I wish you gone
You hammer on my thoughts through dreams
Your plot is thick with saucy schemes
And ways to reach my balconies
But I say Im not turned on by the way you look
I say Im not turned on by the way you act
Im not turned on when you tell me that you need me
But sometimes, just sometimes
You can see the softness in my eyes
And you know, its just not true
Youre in my blood, a holy ghost
I scream, but its a hollow plea
The thoughts I swallow leave me thirsty
You do a very fine imitation of me
And I say Im not turned on by the way you laugh
Im not turned on by the way you smile
Im not turned on when you tell me that you love me
But sometimes, just sometimes
You can see the softness in my eyes
And you know, its just not true
And I say Im not turned on by the way you dance
Im not turned on my the way you laugh
Im not turned on when you need me
But sometimes, just sometimes
You can see the softness in my eyes
And you know, its just not true.

Times To Weep
So often I
have taken from you
and given little back
yet
you never complained
as I pretended to think
this was simply in your nature.
Many times
I turned from your tears
fooling my self
that you were grieving
over some girl friend
and her misfortunes in love
not seeing
the hurt there
came at my hands;
ignoring that I kept you
in my emotional jail
you unable to leave
and I unable to let you go.
I wore your obsession with me
like male perfume;
my aroma therapy
But came the day
you rolled up your
heart-break carpet
tucking it neatly away
in the hall closet
me in two days calling you back
from your mother's house
because I missed
you not being there for me
for whenever I needed.
You saw this abandoning
your healing time
and came back
came back to say your
final hello
and your final goodbye.
While you loved you said
'and offered the kiss'
I merely turned my head
all those years
and 'offered only the cheek.'
Now my face
is to the wall
unable to sleep
all these years
and you
have the children
you sought
and I have my own
carpet
now
kneeling
at night
taking
my own time to weep
about missed opportunities
love lost
regrets at my pillow-keep.

Goodbye To You
Of all the things I believe in
I just want to get it over with
tears from behind my eyes
but I do not cry
Counting the days that past me by
I've been searching deep down in my soul
Words that I'm hearing are starting to get old
Looks like I'm starting all over again
The last three years were just pretend and I say
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I love
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
I still get lost in your eyes
And it seems like I can't live a day without you
Closing my eyes till you chase my thoughts away
To a place where I am blinded by the light but it's not right
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
Ohhh yeah
It hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time
I want whats yours and I want whats mine
I want you but I'm not giving in this time
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
We the stars fall and I lie awake
Your my shooting star

Why Should I Cry
There's a time I felt I was blessed to be loved by you
Those blessings turned to regrets from all the things you put me thru
I remember at night you used to hold me til the sun rose the next day
Now you sleep and just turn away while my heart is on display
CHORUS:
Why should I cry
One more night
Why should I smile
When it hurts inside
Why does my heart say
Get up and walk away
Why do I say
Why should I cry
One more night
Why should I smile
When it hurts inside
Why does my heart say
Get up and walk away
Why do I say
There's a reason why I cry everyday
There's a reason why things don't go your way
There's a reason why I kneel down and pray
There's a reason why Im still around today
Can't you see that I'm hurting internally
I need affection and good love therapy
I need you now it's an urgent delivery
To get rid of this pain from inside of me
CHORUS:
Why should I cry
One more night
Why should I smile
When it hurts inside
Why does my heart say
Get up and walk away
Why do I say
Why should I cry
One more night
Why should I smile
When it hurts inside
Why does my heart say
Get up and walk away
Why do I say
Why should I put up with lies?
Am I afraid to say goodbye?
I loved you so
Baby I cant deny
But now it's time to dry my eyes
Time to think of what was gained
When I feel like it was all of pain
Can't be right and feel this wrong
This heart of mine should just move on
CHORUS:
Why should I cry
One more night
Why should I smile
When it hurts inside
Why does my heart say
Get up and walk away
Why do I say
Why should I cry
One more night
Why should I smile
When it hurts inside
Why does my heart say
Get up and walk away
Why do I say
(Repeat til end)

Goodbye, My Love
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, my love,
Its time to say goodbye.
Remember me for the fun we had,
Remember me for our love.
Be proud that we loved and loved so well
Dont listen to people who speak from hell.
Tears, yes, but lets not be too sad,
Lets hope it wont be all that bad.
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, my love,
I guess its goodbye.
The rivers may flow and the trees may grow
But its not the same without you.
You said life isnt so bad after all,
Keep living for us two.
The sun goes up and the moon fades away
But its not the same without you.
Tears, yes, but dont be too sad,
Lets hope it wont be all that bad.
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, my love,
Its time to say goodbye.

Up, Up and Away
I’ve tried so hard to say goodbye
To let you go, oh how I’ve tried
I told you that I couldn’t stay
But you keep standing in my way
Your kind of love is just a joke
A silly game, a cruel hoax
It’s all just fluff and flattery
You aimed right at the heart of me
I loved you to the very core
Through the years I’ve loved you more
I never stopped to consider why
I never even had to try
It just came, a welcome breeze
A passion washing over me
All it took was just your smile
Ya know...you had me all the while
I thought we’d grown, beyond the touch
Believed your heart was close enough
But what I found was wrapped in strings
Too tightly bound to feel a thing
So now I try to run and hide
It’s funny but, I haven’t cried
I think I too, have turned to stone
It happened while I loved alone
I didn’t know how far I’d fall
Until I got this wake-up call
Seasons change and so have I
There’s nothing left, but my goodbye
It’s too late now to ask me why
It’s too late now to claim you’ll try
So much unsaid b’tween the lines
It's too late now to change your mind

Goodbye's
Mamma
You gave life to me
Turned a baby into a lady
And mamma
All you had to offer
Was the promise of a lifetime of love
Now I know
There is no other
Love like a mother's love for her child
And I know
A love so complete
Someday must leave
Must say goodbye
Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye
Mamma
You gave love to me
Turned a young one into a woman
And mamma
All I ever needed
Was a guarantee of you loving me
'Cause I know
There is no other
Love like a mother's love for her child
And it hurts so
That something so strong
Someday will be gone, must say goodbye
Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye
But the love you give will always live
You'll always be there every time I fall
You offered me the greatest love of all
You take my weakness and you make me strong
And I will always love you 'till forever comes
And when you need me
I'll be there for you always
I'll be there your whole life through
I'll be there this I promise you, mamma
I'll be your beacon through the darkest nights
I'll be the wings that guide your broken flight
I'll be your shelter through the raging storm
And I will love you 'till forever comes
Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye
'Till we meet again...
Until then...
Goodbye

Yellow Roses
Hello you said the day we met
Handing me a yellow rose
You asked me out
And to your surprise
And to mine I said Id go
I thought it so romantic
And I found you sweet and bold
Though wed only met
I still said yes
To a single yellow rose
And for years to come
You were the one
To sleep with me at night
To laugh and talk
And share my thoughts
And hold me when Id cry
And on every occasion
And for no good reason to
A big bouquet or a single yellow rose
Was sent from you
Chorus:
Yellow roses
The color of sunshine
You loved me at one time
Why did you have to go
Yellow roses
Are you sending your new love
My bright yellow rose buds
I still love you so
I never see a yellow rose
That I didnt think of you
Its still my favorite flower
Though the yellows turned to blue
The day you left my teardrops fell
Upon your farewell not
You said goodbye like you said hello
With a single yellow rose
Chorus:
Yellow roses
The color of sunshine
You loved me at one time
Why did you have to go
Yellow roses
Are you sending your new love
My bright yellow rose buds
Oh I still love you so
Yellow roses
The color of sunshine
You loved me at one time
Why did you have to go
Sweet yellow roses
Are you sending your new love
My bright yellow rose buds
I still love you so

Gina
Love always seemed an illusion to me
I could never make things fit
But now that thought turned around
Cause everything feels so right
You see I met you on this big day
I saw your face and got filled with emotion
So now the sky seems a different blue
Cause I know my heart belongs to you
Ohh Gina
Could you look at me once more
Before you walk out of that door
Ohh Gina
Just wanna look you in the eye
Cause I can't stand sayin' goodbye
I know it would be hard for us to be
Couldn't we just give it a shot
But I know your heart must agree
Just wanna love you till the end of time
Ohh Gina
Could you look at me once more
Before you walk out of that door
Ohh Gina
Just wanna look you in the eye
Cause I can't stand sayin' goodbye
Don't know how it's gonna be
Don't know what I've gotta do
I'm just tryin' to let you see
That I'm giving this heart to you
Ohh Gina
Could you look at me once more
Before you walk out of that door
Ohh Gina
Come close in my arms tonight
I know that love has never died
Ooh Gina
Just wanna look you in the eye
I just can't stand sayin' goodbye
Ohh Gina
Ohh Gina
Ohh Gina
Just wanna look you in the eye
And never ever say goodbye

Just Walk Away
I know I never loved this way before
And no one else has loved me more
With you Ive laughed and cried
I have lived and died
What I wouldnt do just to be with you
I know I must forget you and go on
I cant hold back my tears too long
Though life wont be the same
Ive got to take the blame
And find the strenght I need to let you go
Just walk away
Just say goodbye
Dont turn around now you may see me cry
I mustnt fall apart
Or show my broken heart
Or the love I feel for you
So walk away
And close the door
And let my life be as it was before
And Ill never never know
Just how I let you go
But theres nothing left to say
Just walk away
Therell never be a moment Ill regret
Ive loved you since the day we met
For all the love you gave
And all the love we made
I know Ive got to find the strenght to say
Just walk away
Just say goodbye
Dont turn around now you may see me cry
I mustnt fall apart
Or show my broken heart
Or the love I feel for you
So walk away
And close the door
And let my life be as it was before
And Ill never never know
Just how I let you go
But theres nothing left to say
Just walk away

Stopped By A Bullet Of Love
Love and the stranger
So very far from home
A kid was playing little wing
I sat drinking on my own
Love and danger
Oh, they walk hand in hand
Said she was an actress
Thought I was in a band
Stopped by a bullet
Shes a pinball rolling round my head
She turned on a dime
Left me for dead
I found love for the very first time
Hey arizona, I can feel your heat
And I never, loved a tattoo
The way that I love you
Hey arizona, in the coolest, desert wind
Willies singing whiskey river
I let love walk in
*
Stopped by a bullet
Shes a pinball rolling round my head
She turned on a dime
Left me for dead
I found love for the very first time
Loved for the very first time
I found love for the very first time
Love for the very first time
Hey little joe
Is that your working name
Are you hiding something
Or is the truth a darker stain
Hey little joe
Im not another fan
The chorus lines a pickup
And Im a one night stand
Repeat *

Well Meet Again
I walk the
Streets of darkness
Where hell awaits
Guarded by the mystery
Just beyond the gates
Searching for the answer
Every man must find
Before eternity beckons
I will make you mine
Goodbye mystery
Goodbye pain
Goodbye love
Well meet again
In another lifetime
Shell take another man
Shes left me here to die!
Its killing me again!!!!!!!!!!
Goodbye mystery
Goodbye pain
Goodbye love
Well meet again

No More
I didn't know, so I chose truth
Seemed like the right thing for me to do
I turned and walked away and so did you
Now you ‘re wondering was our love true
It was true then, as far as I know
I never loved anyone before
Not in the same way that I loved you
You filled my heart, there was nothing more
Years have passed but still nothing has changed
Our lives taking different directions
But the past is never rearranged
So don't ask me those "what if" questions
Nothing good could ever come of that
So, reminisce without suggestions
And walk away as we did before
For as to our love it is no more

Tomorrow comes and I will not be late.
Late today when it becomes
Tomorrow I
Will leave and go away.

Excite me now and linger on my mind.
Leave your flowers at my door;

The one who waits behind.
Goodbye. Goodbye.

A lonely song and calls me to his side
Where the sound of lonely drums
Invited me on.
