My Motto

i thought i had everything figured out,
until this day,
i have still more to learn,
on how to make it through,
when it don't seem like i have a plan,
i always find a way,
i guess you can say,
think 'yes you can'
or 'si se puede'
and you can make it far,
i never thought that would be my motto,
untill you have days that make you want to fall,
when your mind go negative,
it so hard to still believe it,
wouldn't you say?

I Thought It Took A Little Time

(m. masser/p. sawyer)
Am i really hard to please ?
Perhaps i have such special needs
I wondered what was wrong with me
My friends all fall so easily
But today i fell in love with someone i hardly know
Did i make myself imagine that he could love me so ?
'cause the feeling was so unexpected
I could hardly keep myself collected
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin'
Never did believe in lovin' on sight
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin'
All i know is now it's gotta be right
In the midst of conversation he looked into my eyes
And all through the conversation
Much to my own surprise
Half the words he said to me were missin'
'cause my mind was so intend on kissin'
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin'
Never did believe in lovin' on sight
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin'
All i know is now it's gotta be right
Am i really hard to please ?
Perhaps i have such special needs
I wondered what was wrong with me
My friends all fall so easily
But today i fell in love with someone i hardly know
Did i make myself imagine that he could love me so ?
And the feelin' was so deep inside me
I could feel it when he brushed beside me
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin'
Never did believe in lovin' on sight
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin'
All i know is now it's gotta be right

I Wouldn't Change A Thing

You took my body, yeah, yeah
And everything I have,
My heart, my soul, my money
It was so easy.....for you
But how could I refuse when you knew how to use the body
But it gets so hard, when you love someone
but they can't love you,
So you love alone
But I wouldn't change a thing
no, no
If I could do it all again
yeah, yeah
Did it make make me a better man,
I don't know
Cause it made me what I am,
Was that part of your plan
Well I wouldn't change a thing
Ain't it funny, uhm hmm
How easy you can fall when your heart is doing all the talking
And it got so crazy, sometimes
Walking over me, guess it must have seemed so easy
But it gets so hard, when you love someone
but they can't love you,
So you love alone
But I wouldn't change a thing
no, no
If I could do it all again
yeah
Did it make make me a better man
I don't know
Cause it made me what I am
Was that part of your plan
Well I wouldn't change a thing
I won't hold on
I won't hold on
Cause I'm moving on
I'm moving it on
I won't hold on
I won't hold on
Cause I'm moving on
movin', movin', movin', movin', movin'
But I wouldn't change a thing
no, no
If I could do it all again
yeah, yeah
Did it make make me a better man
I don't know
Cause it made me what I am
Was that part of your plan
But I wouldn't change a thing
(I don't wanna change a thing)
no, no
If I could do it all again
(I'd do it all again)
yeah, yeah
Did it make make me a better man
(I don't wanna change a thing)
I don't know
Cause it made me what I am
Was that part of your plan
No I wouldn't change a thing
No I wouldn't change a thing
No I wouldn't change a thing

The Thought Of You

It actually frightens me
The though of you
Because there are countless things
That it can make me do

The thought of you can make my heart race
It can leave me restless at night
Can make me fidgety to the point where I pace

The thought of you can leave me buzzing with an unknown high
It can form a pit in my stomach
And can leave me love sick and sighing

The thought of you above all other thoughts in my mind shines
It can send shivers down my spine
And make me long for you to be mine

The thought of you can take my breath away
The thought of you from my mind never really strays

But even though the thought of you can send me flying sky high
I'm not gonna lie
I haven't forgotten my heartaching past
Which is why part of me hopes this infatuation doesn't last

But until the thought of you finally fades away
I guess I'll enjoy it
After all
Who knows how long the thought of you will be here to stay

I Wish You Wouldnt Say That

I wish you wouldnt say that
I thought Id have to come right over
I thought I made it clear enough
I guess Ill have to make it clearer
Say something to change your mind
Bring me back the way I used to be
If it takes forever thats all right
Say the words that Ive been trying to hear
I wish you didnt tell her
I thought od have to come right over
I thought Id have to make it clearer
Now jimmys coming over
There are places that I wont forget
And I guess Im never going back
Guess its information that I lack
Ive told lies without a hint or regret
I wish you wouldnt say that
I wish you wouldnt say that
I wish you wouldnt say that
I wish you wouldnt say that
I wish you wouldnt say that
I wish you wouldnt say that
I wish you wouldnt say that...

Just Like You Said

And now that all is said and done
Its kind of hard to hold my tongue
Because you still dont believe youre wrong
Im not so sure what I would say
If I could talk to you that way
You wouldnt understand
I was foolish from the start
Ive tried not to fall apart
Its just like you said but everything is somehow different
Ive tried hard not to admit
That there was some truth to it
Its just like you said but everything is somehow different
Have you ever imagined what you think?
The way your circumstance would be?
And fixed a picture in your head
I guess youve thought of everything
Im sure you know much more than me
At least thats what you think
It shouldnt have to make you wonder
I thought you knew it all along
How I was innocent and pure
And you were smug and so demure
When you predicted I would fall

My Thoughts

Thought in the eyes,
The ears.
Thought in mind,
The brain,
Thought in heart,
The soul.

Great thought is great
when it becomes great deeds.
With my thoughts within
Building my world within

Learning with thought;
Is great learning wisdom.
Learning without thought,
Is opportunity lost.

Thought for others
Thought for God
Thought for good
Thought for God’s blessing

Thoughts teach me,
Thoughts educate me,
Thoughts clarify me,
Thoughts enlighten me.

Thoughts make me wise
Thoughts make me patience
Thoughts make me trust others
Thoughts make me clam.

Thoughts before act
Is smart and wise
Act before thoughts
Is stupid and foolish

That’s my thoughts
They make thinking clear
They make belief deepen
They make confidence high.

In thoughts, my world
In my world, make my thoughts.
In thoughts, my words
In my words, make my speech

It’s my thoughts count
Counting my thoughts
To endless counting thoughts
Thinking the thoughts endlessly
My thoughts and thoughts again.

Fire And Rain

Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
Suzanne the plans they made put an end to you
I walked out this mornin' and I wrote down this song
I just can't remember who to send it to
[chorus]
I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again
Won't you like down upon me Jesus
You gotta help me make a stand
You just got to see me through another day
My body's achin'and my time is at hand
I won't make it any other way
[chorus]
I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again
Been walkin' my mind to an easy time
My back turned towards the sun
Lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your head around
Well there's hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come
Sweet dreams and fine machines in pieces on the ground
[chorus]
Oh I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you baby, one more time again
Thought I'd see you one more time again
There's just a few things comin' my way this time around
Thought I'd see, thought I'd see you...

A koo koo koo I dont care about you no more

You used to make me happy but whatd ya do?
You better go now I think you better go now, baby
I dont want you hanging around my door

You used to make me the happiest guy in this world
I thought we made a bargain I thought we made a deal

I thought wed last forever I thought we had a plan

You used to make me happy but whatd ya do

You're Nothing Without Me

I guess i didn't hear your right
Did you say that you were leaving me
You really must be feeling bad
To say those kinds of things to me
I'm sorry that you feel that way
Because i ...
Thought that we really had it made
That you and i were gonna last
I guess it's fair to let you know
You're nothing without me
I wouldn't walk out that door
Or you may find out the hard way
Just what love is for
You're nothing without me
You'll never fall in love again
Because there's only one me and you
Why pretend
So you wanna be someone new
You want to go and have a ball
The party's been missing you
Baby can't you hear them call
Well i won't stand in your way
I just want to ...
Give you a little free advice
I'd like to help you help yourself
Save you some trouble on the way
You're nothing without me
I wouldn't walk out that door
Or you may find out the hard way
Just what love is for
You're nothing without me
But the person that you used to be
Do you remember what a drag it was
Being so lonely
You're nothing without me
I wouldn't walk out that door
Or you may find out the hard way
Just what love is for
You're nothing without me
But a ship without a sail
Alone in the middle of a dead calm sea
Standing still
You're nothing without me
But a person in a sad cafe
May i suggest dinner for one
Before you go on your way

Our time is now

Days continue to pass, still no future in sight
took a left at the fork, i should have turned right
oh how i wish i could see, the beginning to the end of time
and defy the laws of our human mind
instead stuck i stay, forced to live day by day
but is it really such a curse? striving to make each day better than the worst, realizing were not promised tomorrow, this is a thought ment to borrow
what if the future i saw, was bitter and dead
a thought as this would confuse the head
maybe find a feeling of inevitability, and refuse every responsibility
then lie down and wait, to let this impending future become your fate
perhaps your future was the other way around
walking on the sky instead of the ground
would you try as hard to find your light, or dive from a plane that never took flight, because you were blinded by your future shinning so bright
living day by day is a curse? i believe the opposite, reverse
so before from reality you are torn, in seeking the future i must worn
the only rewards are sickle and thorn,
for our time is now, thats why we were born.

'Death is the future for us all, we walk a lifetime, untill we fall' E.A.F

Who To Listen To

Dont take a ride from a stranger,
No way to know where they go.
You may be left on a long dark road,
Lost and alone.
Dont you recall what your mama told?
Youve got to learn hot from cold.
When youre afraid that you might get burned,
Where do you turn?
Youve got to know who to, (who to)
Who not to listen to.
Youve gotta know who to, (ooooh....)
Who not to listen to.
Well, you know, theyre gonna hit you from all sides,
Better make up your mind
Who to, who not to listen to.
(who to listen to.)
How can you learn what is true and just?
How to know who to trust?
Here comes a man with a scam to sell.
How can you tell?
Youve gotta know theres a bigger plan,
Room to fall, room to stand.
Pray for the plan to begin in you;
Keep your heart true.
Youve got to know who to, (who to)
Who not to listen to.
Youve gotta know who to,
Who not to listen to. (who to listen to.)
Well, you know, theyre gonna hit you from all sides,
Better make up your mind
Who to, who not to listen to.
Its gonna hit you from all sides,
Better make up your mind
Who to, (who to), who not to listen to.
Everyone will have their words to say....
Find the word to help you find your way....
(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...yeah...ah....)
Youve got to know who to, (who to)
Who not to listen to.
Youve gotta know who to,
Who not to listen to. (who to listen to.)
Well, you know, theyre gonna hit you from all sides,
Better make up your mind
Who to, who not to listen to.
Theyre gonna hit you from all sides,
Better make up your mind
Who to, who not to listen to. (who to listen to.)
Theyre gonna hit you from all sides.
Hit you from all sides,
Better make up your mind
Who to, (who to), who not to listen to.
(who do you listen to? )
Theyre gonna hit you from all sides, (theyre gonna hit!)
Theyre gonna hit you from all sides,
Better make up your mind
Who to, who not to listen to.
(who to listen to.)
(youve got to know.
Who to listen to.)
(you gotta know who to.
Who to listen to.)
(theyre gonna hit you from all sides.
Hit you from all sides.)

Now that you're out of my life
I'm so much better
You thought that I'd be weak without you
But I'm stronger
You thought that I'd be broke without you
But I'm richer
You thought that I'd be sad without you
I laugh harder
You thought I wouldn't grow without you
Now I'm wiser
Though that I'd be helpless without you
But I'm smarter
You thought that I'd be stressed without you
But I'm chillin'
You thought I wouldn't sell without you
Sold 9 million

I'm a survivor (What?)
I'm not gon give up (What?)
I'm not gon stop (What?)
I'm gon work harder (What?)

Thought I couldn't breathe without
I'm inhaling
You thought I couldn't see without you
Perfect vision
You thought I couldn't last without you
But I'm lastin'
You thought that I would die without you
But I'm livin'
Thought that I would fail without you
But I'm on top
Thought it would be over by now
But it won't stop
Thought that I would self destruct
But I'm still here
Even in my years to come
I'm still gon be here

I'm a survivor (What?)
I'm not gon give up (What?)

All In My Heart

(mike geiger/woddy mullis)
I sit here tonight
And look in your eyes
For that old familiar flame
That love that burns
Makes my wolrd turn
Two hearts beating the same
Is it all in my mind
Or is it harder to find
I feel like Im in the dark
I thought it was real
But Im starting to feel
Like it must be all in my heart
Im a fool for believing
But I just keep dreaming
While we just keep drifting apart
Trying to make something
Where theres really nothing
I guess its all in my heart
I keep telling myself
Theres something else
I could do
To find that spark
But wherever it lies
Its not in your eyes
I guess its all in my heart
Im a fool for believing
But I just keep dreaming
While we just keep drifting apart
Trying to make something
Where theres really nothing
I guess its all in my heart
Just trying to make something
Where theres really nothing
I guess its all in my heart

Hard On Me

Its all I can do
To keep that little girl smiling
And keep my faith alive
Takes all I got to hold on to tomorrow
And you want to make it hard
Yeah, you want to make it hard on me
Some other time
Id be understanding
You were supposed to be
The friend that I needed when I was down and now
You want to make it hard
You want to make it hard on me
Maybe if I tried, I could turn the other cheek
Maybe, but how big do I have to be
Now you want to make it hard
Yeah, you want to make it hard on me
Maybe if I tried, I could turn the other cheek
Maybe, but how big do I have to be
I need someone
To put their arm around me
Shelter me from all harm
Just as I find something to believe in

Too Much To Think About

Sister help take this pain from my heart
Help me stand up and find out whats right
Dont want to exist here in the dark
When the gates of eden offer so much light
But theres too much to think about
Too many problems in my brain
Yeah, theres too much to think about
How could I ever make up my mind
Young man lay down your guns
And hold your woman in your arms
The concretes not worth dying fo
They say theres more to this life
But theres too much to think about
Too many problems in my brain
Yeah, theres too much to think about
How could I ever make up my mind
So what am I living for
They say the truth is not hard to find
Its right here in front of my eyes
If I could just open my heart sometimes
But theres too much to think about
Too many problems in my brain
Yeah, theres too much to think about
How could I ever make up my mind
But theres too much to think about
Too many problems in my brain
Yeah, theres too much to think about
How could I ever make up my mind
Make up my mind
Make up my mind
Make up make up my mind
Make up make up my mind
