The Real You

wow, a whole new you,
i never thought i see,
so shy to show your true self,
i wonder why,
when we all go through the same thing,
i can be alittle too opened for you,
can't you do the same in return,
i think often if i made the right choice,
to be with somebody who cares,
but are you playing it alittle too safe?
couples have problems,
that how they get stronger,
never changing can become boring,
can't you take a chance,
things happen for a reason,
wether we want them to or not,
we can't control everything,
somethings are out of reach,
but, what we can change,
is the way we do things,
i'm tiried of playing safe,
it not who i am,
stuff i say, is what on my mind,
yeah abit to honest at times,
but, that just who i am,
why lie, when you would know the truth?
i'm never fake, what you see is what you get,
ain't that how it should always be?
we should show who we are,
sooner or later it will come out,
shouldn't you show the real you in the begining?

You are changing into a person i just don't like

you act like we are together,
but you don't just say it,
i liked you playful teasing,
but it seem like you are no longer playing,
your demands have became strong,
and something seem to change,
when i looked you dead in the eye and said,
that i listen to no man,
when it comes to telling me what to do,
or what i should be doing,
it was something i ment,
and it seems like you were going to break me,
i may be a bit unsure of myself at times,
but i know what i want,
and for a man to control me,
that will never happen,
i feel like i'm to blame in some way,
like i made you become this way,
but all i have did,
was be myself,
you always seem to say,
that you are so awesome,
but it seems to me like you are a bit unsure yourself,
you do things to make me laugh,
but at times it seem like it is force,
force just so i will laugh and give you attention,
when you going to learn,
that i like you just the way you are,
sensitive, honested and real,
but you treating me like i'm a dog,
throwing paper at me,
it's a bit rude,
demanding me to sit down or to clean up,
your mess you made,
i am not your mother,
nor your dog,
i missed who i use to know,
the guy who didn't put on a show,
just to show that he was the man,
i liked that side that i got to know,
the one who was not shy to be himself around me,
where did that guy go?
because right now,
that guy is slowly fading,
behind a guy,
i'm starting not to like.

Show Me The Real You

Hey remember me?
Hard to forget, right?
Insistent, demanding
When we were both sixteen
I remember you in the spotlight
You seemed so in control
Hiding behind your wall
Have you ever met somebody who could
Unmask you
The way you unmask me
Guidelines and sub-routines
You make me forget the things
That I put in place to save my face
But I'm not sure if it's a face worth saving
Show me the real you
And I'll show you the real me
Can we make a second first impression baby
Show me the real you
And I'll show you the real me
Can we make a second first impression, baby
Maybe, maybe, yeah
Seven years have past
Now here I come
I caught the briefest glimpse
I haven't seen it since
When you smile at me
Where'd you smile from
From insecurity
But you're secure with me
Have you never let somebody in to
Unmask you
The way you unmask me
I know it's dangerous
Please don't be afraid because
This is your life I used to live
Now I know It's not a life worth living
Show me the real you
And I'll show you the real me
Can we make a second first impression baby
Show me the real you
And I'll show you the real me
Can we make a second first impression, baby
Maybe, maybe, yeah
I know I'm acting stupid
Can we make a second first impression
I want us to be honest, open
Show your face to me
Show me the real you
And I'll show you the real me
Can we make a second first impression baby
Show me the real you
And I'll show you the real me
Can we make a second first impression, baby
Maybe, maybe, yeah

The Farewell Sestina

It was Walter Cronkite, wasn't it, who said,
'And that's the way it is, ' at the end of the show,
safe in the knowledge he had done his job well
and standing by for all the other things
that needed to be done at close of day-
how utterly unlike the way I am.

The time has come to wonder who I am;
it is time to say what has not yet been said.
When the skulking shade of graduation day
comes to end this last picture show,
I will relfect on all the many things
I've done; I hope I'll find I did them well.

There were times I overslept and felt unwell
(blame the reckless partier I am) .
And I remember saying all those hateful things
which now I wish that I had never said;
and my utter inability to show
some inner sunshine through my cloudy day.

But now and then I found a better day,
where friends were met and I kept them very well,
and the game, the class, the television show
turned me into who I seldom am:
'the boy at the party last night who said,
as I recall, the most delightful things.'

All in all, I'll miss so many things:
eating at Ray on chicken nugget day;
the funny thing Professor Quinlan said;
the springtime flowers, watered very well
as if to shout to tour guides, 'Here I am! '
and waiting for the autumn leaves to show.

What is yet to come, no looking back can show;
the future holds for us mysterious things.
But I won't change; I like the way I am-
it simply took 'til graduation day
to grasp my truth and draw once more from the well
the sacred ink of all that has been said.

In this show that is my life, the hero said
at close of day, 'This is the way I am:
bound for better things, and so, farewell.'

~Smile~

We all smile to show our happiness,
We use it a lot, Yes,

Smile can be fake or real,
Its used to show or hide how we feel,

Fake smile is shown when,
Pain in heart rises,
And real smile is shown when,
Unexpected happiness doubles in sizes,

Natural or Not,
But its better to show a real one on the spot,

Let us be honest,
the only time we show the real smile is when someone has touched our heart,
and when we show the fake smile,
is when someone has tear everything apart,

Yes we show our fake smile,
to show people that we are okay so they wont revile,

Its hard to put on a real one as your hurt,
And yes we try to heal it as we flirt,

Its time to face the fact,
Showing a fake smile is like showing a fake and stupid act,

Put every pain to the side and smile for now,
not for someone,
But for everyone,
and show it as we are endowed.

Sooner Or Later

Eric woolfson - lead vocal
Oh what a price we pay
For the things we say
And the closer I get to you
The further you move away
All the lies we tell
In the games we play
And the longer I think it over
The harder it is to stay
Sooner or later Ill be free
To leave the past behind
Sooner or later youre gonna be
The last thing on my mind
Little by little Im finding out
The truth behind your eyes
Maybe if I dont show
I thought you might like to know
Youre gonna be the last thing on my mind
You didnt want to know
I could have told you so
But the moment I think its over
The further there is to go
Just a little word
Such an easy way
But the longer I think about it
The harder it is to say
Sooner or later Ill be free
To leave the past behind
Sooner or later youre gonna be
The last thing on my mind
Little by little Im finding out
The truth behind your eyes
Maybe if I dont show
I thought you might like to know
Youre gonna be the last thing on my mind

Let Me Love You

(aimee mayo, bill luther, chris lindsey, marv green)
Sometimes I close my eyes
And imagine youre with me
Chasing passion into the night
All tangled in a dream.
Oh if you could see my heart
The way I feel inside
You would know just how far
Im willing to go to get to you
There is nothing I wont do.
Show me what its like to lose control
Free the desire in your soul
Oh oh let me love you.
Let me take you to a place like no where else
Show you the things you never felt
Oh oh let me love you.
Oh I want to taste your kiss
Be the reason for your smile
Touch the magic on your skin
Be the one that drives you wild.
Oh if you could read my mind
Youd know youre everything I need
Youd see yourself through my eyes
You may understand what Im going through
Just how much I want you.
Show me what its like to lose control
Free the desire in your soul
Oh oh let me love you.
Let me take you to a place like no where else
Show you the things you never felt
Oh oh let me love you.
Let me love you.
Let me love you!
Show you what its like to lose control
Free the desire in your soul
Oh oh let me love you.
Let me take you to a place like no where else
Show you the things you never felt
Oh oh let me love you.
Oh I love you.
Show you what its like to lose control
Free the desire in your soul
Oh oh let me love you.
Yeah baby.
Let me take you to a place like no where else
Show you the things you never felt
Oh oh let me love you.
Let me love you.
Let me love you.
Let me love you.
Let me love you.

Afraid To Show What's Really Going On

how do you open up?
when you don't know how?
i mean where do you start?
people want to know what's going on,
how do you let them in?
can they be trusted?
for the way you feel?
just want to hide,
don't want to face it,
but you know you have to,
scared of what might happen,
but, is it for the best?
do we all need to reach out for help,
when we need it the most?
afraid to show your weakness,
because it just not you,
but, people you care about want in,
do you let them in?
even though you afraid they might be hurt,
about what you have to say?
but, so tired of it eating you up,
deep inside,
where it shouldn't even be,
because fear keeps me frozen,
from sharing what i'm going through,
will they understand?
can they come to an agreement?
i'm tiried of feeling alone in this,
will somebody help me through?
show me the way,
show me the light,
i want to be free,
but, instead i have so much holding me down,
i don't want to get judge,
i don't want to be bossed around,
what i want is to be able to not hide,
so much inside.

ON THAT NIGHT HE STOLE MY DIGNITY &+ MY SELF WORTH

We go walking towards the future
With different size strides
Show me the way to solve your sorrows
And I'll do what I can
'Cause we have the experience
If we plan
Baby we can see that close
Show me the way to solve your problems and I'll be there
Show me the way and I'll do what I can
What can I say ohh lately what can I do
I just can't stand losing
Welcome to the new world
Let me join your hand
We go walking through your world
With a brand new plan
All over
God only knows how much I love you
Give me a chance and I'll show the faith all over
You will understand lady if you change your mind
Baby only I know what you need
Show me the way to solve your problems and I'll be there

Only you know what I need
Then maybe I can take you higher
Then maybe I can stop those tears I can stop those tears

Nothing Stronger Than Love

Written by c. jackson & m. yancy
There aint nothin stronger than love
There aint no word greater than love
And once you feel that
Your whole life will change, yeah
Youll never wanna hurt again, no one
Never wanna hurt again
There aint no tears, no tears wetter than love
(ooh)
There aint no smile, no smile, no smile
No smile wider than love
(ooh, ooh)
And when all forsake you
They seem to see wrong in what you say, yeah
(nobody holds the key) nobody holds the key to the answer
I know that love will show the way, yeah
Love will show the way (there aint nothin stronger than love)
(there aint nothin stronger than love)
(no love!) now you can live on my friend but youll never, never find
(no love!) the word Im talkin bout can give you peace of mind
(love is!) the answer to the burden that you have in your heart
I know it can give a lonely person a brand new start
Love is a blessing, ooh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I like to think about love as a bridge over troubled water
Oh, I like to think about love as the little children playing together
(there aint nothin, nothin stronger than love)
You know I like to think about it, oh (ooh, no)
I like to think (there aint nothin, nothin stronger than love)
About it, l-o-v-e (hoo, no)
(there aint nothin, nothin stronger than love)
I really like to think about everybody, everybody comin (hoo, no) together
(there aint nothin, nothin stronger than love)
I really like to think about it
I can see the day, yeah (hoo, no)
Its gonna happen one of these ol days - oh! (no love!)
Doo doop, doo doop, doo doop, doop!
Doo doop, doo doop, doo doop, doop!
Doo doop, doo doop
There aint nothin stronger, stronger, stronger than love----

Show Me

Once I needed your love
But that was just one thing left on my mind
Then I needed to feel you near me
You said:dont have the time.
The cowboys at the rodeo
The rhine-stones on that romeo
Your theme tune on the radio
Souvenirs that only go to
_ chorus:
Show me, show me
Show me that your mine
Show me, show me
Give me just one sign
Show me, show me
Second that emotion
Show me, show me love
Since were skimming the surface darling
Nows time to get in deep
Youve opened up the envelope
But theres still one secret you keep
A pirate station or the late night show
A sunken ship with a rich cargo
Buried treasure that the four winds blow
Wind and rain it only goes to
_ chorus
Some things are hidden
Some things youll see
Make me know
Signal to me
Nine out of ten, in every case
She might look pretty but theres make up on her face
Show me, show me love
And you can be free
And you could be free. free. free.
Where are the diamonds?
Where are the curls?
Where are the things that you took from this world?
These are the diamonds
These are the curls
These are the things that you took from this world

Good Things!

It's never too late to do good things...
When those good things come,
To be done!

It should never be a decision made,
Whether to show gratitute...
Whenever an attitude,
Is moody when it comes.
Do it...
No one loses!

It's never too late to show someone there,
You think of them just because you care.
Thinking they will know what it is you feel...
Does little for the one,
Who believes no one is aware...
With feelings that are real.

'How could they,
When they aren't there shown or spoken? '

And it's always a good sign...
To release and let things go!
When doubt is removed,
And your mind has approved
The doing is true and it can be proposed.

Hesitation for you will seldom come to show!
Knowing for you that good is in the doing,
And pursuing it from head to toe...
Has you moving.,
Reaping as you sow.

It's never too late to do good things...
When those good things come,
To be done!
Always contemplate good things,
And good things you did...
Makes those good things done grow!

Oh Yeah

(ferry)
Some expression in your eyes
Overtook me by surprise
Where was i how was i to know?
How can we drive to a movie show
When the music is here in my car
Theres a band playing on the radio
With a rhythm of rhyming guitars
They playing oh yeah on the radio
And so came to be our song
And so on through all summer long
Day and night drifting into love
Driving you home from a movie show
So in tune to the sounds in my car
Theres a band playing on the radio
With a rhythm of rhyming guitars
They playing oh yeah on the radio
Its some time since we said goodbye
And now we lead our separate lives
But where am i where can i go?
Driving alone to a movie show
So i turn to the sounds in my car
Theres a band playing on the radio
With a rhythm of rhyming guitars
Theres a band playing on the radio
And its drowning the sound of my tears
Theyre playing oh yeah on the radio

Gimme That Thing Called Love

Published by northern goody two tunes, ltd./capac - ascap
You take my breath away, its not the things you do
But the way you do it, I knew it was gonna work out this way
Its beyond the point of pleasure, to the point of no return
I should know better, whatever, I guess Im gonna live and learn
Gimme that thing called love, show me a thing about love
Gimme that thing called love, show me a thing about love
Reach out and touch me girl, I wanna tell you that its right this time, this time
Its such a sweet surrender, I feel myself going under your spell, oh well
Right or wrong, baby go on, just have your way with me
I dont scare that easily, whatever you want, please go on
Whatever it takes, take it out on me, come on
Gimme that thing called love, show me a thing about love
Gimme that thing called love, show me a thing about love
Hold on, look my way, Im turned on by the things you say
I wont forget about the night we had
I wont be sorry for the things Ive said, this time
Reach out and touch me girl, I wont be sorry for the things Ive said
Its satisfaction guaranteed, I wont pretend itll always be this way
But at least Im gonna have my day
Beyond this point of pleasure, to the point of no return
I should know better, whatever, I guess Im gonna live and learn
Gimme that thing called love, show me a thing about love
Gimme that thing called love, show me a thing about love
Reach out and touch me girl, reach out and hold me girl

Right before you walked away

Trying to find my way out

Deep inside my heart
And you know

Show It At The Beach

Oh they won't let us show it at the beach no they won't let us show it at the beach
They think we're gonna grab it if it gets within our reach
And they won't let us show it at the beach

But you can show it in your parlor to most anyone you choose
You can show it at a party with your second shot of booze
You can show it on the corner wearin' overcoat and shoes
But they won't let us show it at the beach
No they won't let us show it at the beach friends
Ah they won't us show it at the beach
Oh they're sure we're gonna grab it if it gets within our reach
So they won't let us show it at the beach

But you can show it in the movies on the cineramic screen
You can show it in the most sophisticated magazine
You can show it while you're bouncing on the high school trampoline
But they won't let us show it at the beach

But if you've got a gun it's legal to display it on your hip
You can show your butcher knives to any interested kid
But if it's made for lovin' then you'd better keep it hid
And they won't let us show it at the beach

Deeper Side

Ive found a reason to dig deep down.
Theres a part of you that I aint found thats in your deeper side.
Instead of wondering what I should do,
I tried to learn a couple things about you from your deeper side.
Show me your deeper side. (show me your deeper side)
Show me your deeper side. (show me your deeper side)
Show me your deeper side. (its a mystery)
That I would give most anything to see.
Theres a lot of things that I would know
If you would let me climb into your soul and see your deeper side.
Everybody always seems so pure,
Then they show you what their heart stands for in their deeper side.
Show me your, yeah. (show me your deeper side)
Show me your deeper side. (show me your deeper side)
Show me your deeper side. (its a mystery)
I would give most anything to see.
You think the world has got your number now.
You cry about it but you know somehow its your deeper side.
I heard you wishing you were someone else
But all thats stopping you from being yourself is your deeper side.
So, show me your deeper side. (show me your deeper side)
Please, show me your deeper side. (show me your deeper side)
Oh, show me your deeper side. (its a mystery)
I would give most anything, and, I would give most anything.
You would give most anything to see.
Show me your deeper side.

I Thought I Knew It All

Somewhere theres a reason
Why things go like they do
Somewhere theres a reason
Why somethings just fall through
We dont always see them
For what they really are
But I know theres a reason,
Just cant see it from this far
Maybe I dont like it, but I have no choice
I know that somewhere, someone hears my voice
I thought I knew it all
I thought I had it made
How could it end this way?
I thought I knew
Somewhere theres a reason
Why things dont go my way
Somewhere theres a reason
That I cannot explain
Just like the change of season,
Just may not be my turn
But I know theres a reason,
The lessons mine to learn
