RSVP
I got an invitation for you
A little temptation for you
A night in your honor
A secret rendezvous
I can almost see your face at my door
I don't want to have to wait anymore
I know my offer might be long overdue
RSVP
It's a private affair
I just won't believe that you don't care
RSVP
Only you and me
I'll be waiting till you answer me
Please don't hesitate I'm waiting for you
You can't have nothing more important to do
Deep in the nighttime
Hear me talk to you
RSVP
It's a private affair
I just won't believe that you don't care
RSVP
Only you and me
I'll be waiting till you answer me
RSVP
It's a private affair
I just won't believe that you don't care
RSVP
Only you and me
I'll be waiting till you answer me

The Poet As Politician
every hour the poets knock the door of my senses
if you have time my dear
please read my latest poem
i have read yours and they're good
(what does he care? he has his own cares to care for)
and they keep on knocking
and i keep on lying too with my grin as wide as the cheetah
your poems are great
just perfect for me.. oh i love this one too
how hungry can a poet be as a politician
hungry for praise
lusting for honor
wanting to have a name where there are none
except perhaps in tombstones
yes i will compromise with an epitaph
here lies the poet as a politician
he is read upon his own request
Requiscat In Pace!
i place the star after his date of birth
i place a cross after his date of death.
and of course at the lowest portion
upon his request
RSVP.

Look Back In Anger
You know who I am, he said
The speaker was an angel
He coughed and shook his crumpled wings
Closed his eyes and moved his lips
Its time we should be going
(waiting so long, Ive been waiting so, waiting so)
Look back in anger, driven by the night
Till you come
(waiting so long, Ive been waiting so, waiting so)
Look back in anger, see it in my eyes
Till you come
No one seemed to hear him
So he leafed through a magazine
And, yawning, rubbed the sleep away
Very sane he seemed to me
(waiting so long, Ive been waiting so, waiting so)
Look back in anger, driven by the night
Till you come
(waiting so long, Ive been waiting so, waiting so)
Look back in anger, feel it in my voice
Till you come
(waiting so long, ahhh...)
(waiting so long, Ive been waiting so, waiting so) (waiting so long, Ive been waiting so, waiting so)
(waiting so long, ahhh...)

Willing And Waiting
Willing & waiting
But it's all up to you, ohhh
The very first time I laid my eyes on you
I knew you were the one
Nothing can compare to all the times
We both had some fun
Sometimes I wanna cry
Cause boy I realize
I need you in my life
Don't think he understands
I want him for my man
Waiting for you
I-I-I'm willing & waiting
So in love with you (so in love with you)
Willing & waiting
Boy it's on you (it's on you)
Willing & waiting
Boy I need the truth (boy I need the truth)
Willing & waiting
So in love with you
Every time boy I take one look at you
I see the sun just shine
When we're alone never want the night to end
Cause you're the one I want
Sometimes I wanna cry
Cause boy I realize
I need you in my life
Don't think he understands
I want him for my man
Waiting for you
Willing & waiting
So in love with you (so in love with you)
Willing & waiting
Boy it's on you (on you)
Willing & waiting
Boy I need the truth (boy I need the truth)
Willing & waiting
So in love with you
You better answer (oh yes you better answer)
You better answer
Sometimes I wanna cry
Cause boy I realize
I need you in my life
Don't think he understands
I want him for my man
Waiting for you

Private Life
This is my private life
I have no friends to fear
Ive got no problems no cross to bear
If you can find me
Come and get me out of here
Chorus
This is my private life
This is my private life
This is my private life . . .
These are my private things
There they are against the wall
The dirty pictures, religious objects
These are my private things
Come and get them out of here
This is my private bed
This is where I lie at night
Staring at a light bulb hanging on the ceiling
Waiting for a dream to
Come and get me out of here
Bridge
Here in my humble room at night
I often wonder what goes on out there
What makes them runs o scared
I often stare at the people passing by
But they cant see me thru my window shades
Just like Im not even there
Chorus
This is my private life
This is my private life
This is my private life
Theres something dangerous I like
This is my private life
I know my problems arent your fault
What I really want to know
Has it always been this way
This is my private life
This is my private life
This is my private life
Come and get me out of here

Waiting Is The Long Answer
WAITING IS THE LONG ANSWER
Waiting is the wrong answer
We wait and wait and wait.
And when what we have waited for
Does not come true?
We wait and wait and wait
And wait more.
And one day
When we are still waiting
Waiting stops
And our life has not come true
As we dreamed.

Please Tell Me Now
Arnold clawson / toussaint pope
Please tell me now
How much you care
Before we say good night, my dear
Youll never say
That youll be mine
Why keep me waiting?
Please tell me now
Day and night Im wondering
Do you really care?
Must I go on wondering
About this love affair?
My heart will cry
And thats no lie
Dont keep me waiting
Please tell me now

They' Who Have Answered
Every message you have delivered,
I have received them.
Every signal you have sent...
I have heard.
You wanted to contact me,
And I knew this!
Every satellite propelled in space,
Beaming with signals throughout this universe.
And rocketships sent to other planets...
Equipped with devices to depict our location,
Has been witnessed and followed...
And now it is denied,
Visitors have arrived!
And some try to hide them...
Although a request for them to be guests,
Has confused!
'They' who have answered the invitations,
Aren't amused!
Would you?
If you had replied to an RSVP...
And was refused?
'Répondez s'il-vous-plaît'
~Perhaps they did not understand,
What they sent to us?
Why are they shocked?
Did they not realize we would come? ~

Chit'lins or Chitterlings
Cursed by diversity.
And open to debate it.
A curious personality,
Can leave one sleepless.
To romanticize those duties done by mice.
Or puzzled by the non melting of dry ice.
And what keeps it hot...
As well as chilled.
And do pigs care...
Every gristle of theirs can be pickled?
From hoofs to ears.
With their intestines served and hotsauced.
'Are they called chit'lins or chitterlings? '
Called them what you want.
Whatever you do...
Clean and cook them right.
Or they will stink up your whole house,
If you don't.
And some challenges are invitational.
If someone is requested to RSVP to a duel!
Should they respond?
Should one wear a redingote...
A double breasted coat with wide flat cuffs,
And collar?
Worn by men in the 18th century!
Or...
Should such a request be 'Returned to Sender...
All Fools Have Moved From This Address'!
With the knowledge that someone aims to kill.
'I think it's time for you to take a nap! '

A One Night Love Affair
You're the silent type
And you caught my eye
But I never thought that I'd be touchin' you
How was I to know
I'd let my feelin's go
And that I'd be yours before the night was through
One night love affair
Tryin' to make like we don't care
We were both reachin' out for somethin'
One night love affair
Pretendin' it ain't there
Oh - and now we're left with nothin'
When the mornin' breaks
We go our separate ways
If the night was made for love it ain't for keeps
But I lose control
As I watch you go
All my senses say I'm in this much too deep
Now you're outa reach
One night love affair
Tryin' to make like we don't care
We were both reachin' out for somethin'
One night love affair
Pretendin' we don't care
Oh - and now we're left with nothin'
[Solo]
One night love affair
Trying' to make like we don't care
We were both reachin' out for somethin'

Oh - and not we're left with nothin'

Return Post
(v. peterson/s. hoffs)
Vicki
Writing the lines as they come to me
Scratching them out almost immediately
Dont know what its done to me
Its cold and its wet its been raining all night
And theres a letter Ive been trying to write
Something better waiting somewhere for me
One of them is sitting on the wrong coast
One awaits an answer by return post
Waiting, waiting
Try to remember how long its been
There was more to us than paper and pen
Think how easy it is to conceal
And I know when were together again
Well be strangers for an hour and then
Well have to figure out if this thing is real
One of them is sitting on the east coast
One awaits an answer by return post
Waiting, waiting
Take a drink and staring out the window
Wondering how long this can continue
Waiting, waiting

Private Heaven
Ah, what happened to our little girl?
She doesnt sing like she used to do
Ah, why wont she say it to the world?
She doesnt want us anymore. she is gone
In a private heaven
They may try
But nobody can find you
In a private heaven
Close your eyes
Its waiting right behind you
Ah, when did her laughter fly away?
She doesnt smile like she used to do
Ah, where is her happy yesterday?
She doesnt want us anymore. she is gone
In a private heaven
They may try
But nobody can find you
In a private heaven
Close your eyes
Its waiting right behind you
You cant take our love away - no you cant
You cant take our love away - please dont take
You cant take our love away - no you cant now
You cant take our love away - please dont take it
You cant take our love away - no you cant
You cant take our love away - please dont take
You cant take our love away - cant take it away
You cant take our love away - cant take it away
You cant take our love away - you cant take it away
Ah, will you be coming home again?
She doesnt have somewhere else to go
Ah, who will become your special friend?
I will be taking her away. she is gone
In a private heaven
They may try
But nobody can find you
In a private heaven
Close your eyes
Its waiting right behind you

Life Affair
(gardner cole/matthew garey)
Were off to the right start
Put your hand on my heart
Feel it beat with sweet intention
Dont tell me sit tight
Im too excited tonight
Every touch takes me to heaven
Got so much love inside, you know were gonna make it
Come here and turn the key, unlock all this extacy
Lets start a life affair
We have no time to spare
To show how much we care
Come on now lets start a life affair
You know Ill be right there
We make the perfect pair
High as a kite now
Ive got perfect sight now
I can see beyond forever
Its gonna be just you and me boy
Every day a new joy
Loving more than we can measure
So many dreams out there,
I know where we can find them
Cant wait a minute more,
Youre all Ive been waiting for
Lets start a life affair
We have no time to spare
To show how much we care
Come on now lets start a life affair
You know Ill be right there
We make the perfect pair
Dancing together this dance that lasts forever
Never been so in love
Eyes bright and open, a thousand new emotions
Raining down from above
Lets start a life affair
We have no time to spare
To show how much we care
Come on now lets start a life affair
You know Ill be right there
We make the perfect pair

Leap Of Faith
Words and music by michelle branch
One less call to answer,
Feeling full of despair,
Dont think I can get through it,
Just one last prayer.
*and its a leap of faith,
When you believe theres someone out there,
Its a leap of faith when you believe that someone cares, oh,
And when I call out to you,
Will you be right there,
Right there.
Searching for the answer,
Nobody seems to care,
Oh how I wish that you were here,
Beside me,
To wipe away my tears.
*and its a leap of faith,
When you believe theres someone out there,
Its a leap of faith when you believe that someone cares, oh,
And when I call out to you,
Will you be right there,
Right there.
Waiting for the answer,
Remembering times we would share,
Somehow I feel you here beside me,
Even though your not there.
*and its a leap of faith,
When you believe theres someone out there,
Its a leap of faith when you believe that someone cares, oh,
And when I call out to you,
Will you be right there-
Bridge:
Right there---
And Ill be waiting by the window for your smile to come through,
And Ill be waiting in the darkness when I call out to you,
And Ill remember when you told me,
I could trust in you-
*and its a leap of faith,
When you believe theres someone out there,
Its a leap of faith when you believe that someone cares, oh,
And when I call out to you,
Will you be right there-
Its a leap of faith,
And I believe that you are out there,
Its a leap of faith and I believe you truly care, oh,
And when I call out to you,
I know youll be right there,
Right there,
And its a leap of faith.

The Answer Lies
(graham russell)
Reach into your heart when you are near me
The answer lies at hand
Throw away all your fears of getting nowhere
For all your moves are planned
So dont spend too much time waiting by the door
For you will never see right thru
Just walk right inside and Ill be there
The answer lies there for you
Come, oh wont you come, someone is calling and no one else will do
Wake, from the dream in which you are falling
The answer lies there for you
So dont spend too much time waiting by the door
For you will never see right thru
Just walk right inside and I am sure the answer lies there for you
So dont spend too much time waiting by the door
For you will never see right thru
Just walk right inside and I am sure
The answer lies, the answer lies
The answer lies, there for you

No Getaway
Baby , look across the street
I know that youre alone
Ive been waiting out in the dark
That surrounds your home
cause after midnight Ill be calling
Cmon answer the phone
* and baby you know theres no getaway
I belong to you
Ill be calling every night and day
till you want me too
Baby Ive seen every movie
That youve ever made
And now Im waiting
I know all the parts
That youve ever played
* repeat

Oh baby do you read my letters
Im so excited about you
But Im still waiting
Ive had no reply
What about our rendezvous?
cause after midnight
Ooh while youre sleeping
You know Im looking for you

Oh! Daisy
Oh Daisy won't you tell me a secret
Tell me something everyone wants to know
I've been sitting here inside thelittle box in my head
Waiting for an answer, waiting to understand
Oh Daisy won't you tell me a fortune
Living out my dreams of sunny days
I've been living there inside the little box in my head
Waiting for an answer, but Daisy she never talks back
(Chorus)
What you expect from someone who is named after a cow yeah
Go figure
I won't get an answer from someone who is named after a flower
Go figure
Oh Daisy won't you stop acting stupid
I'm getting sick of your whole attitude
Come and sit with me inside the little box in my head
Waiting for an answer, but Daisy she never talks back

Our Affair
What a perfect night
Secrets lights up the sky
Like fireflies do
There's nothing but a silky hope
That old opiate
Between me and you
Don't look now
We're just about there
We're just one little breath away
From our affair
From our affair
Don't move too fast
Don't run scared
We're just one surrender away
From our affair
Don't you feel like
You're coming down with something
Some great fancy flu
Don't you feel like you're
Coming down with me
And it doesn't get sicker than you
Don't you feel like this is the really good part
Where it's still up in the air
The perfect romance is never
Stated or sated, deflated or fair
Don't admit it yet
And don't stop saying your prayers
We're just one little heartbeat away
From our affair
From our affair
There's a light in my window
And a little red ladybug in my hair
Just one turn down an empty street
Away,away, away
From our affair
From our affair
There's a white-hot desire
Of which I am pleasantly aware
Just one more "wait a minute baby"
Away, away, away, away
From our affair
From our affair
From our affair

Expectations
Are you waiting for me?
Am I waiting for you?
I hope you are not denying yourself happiness for my sake
I think at one time I loved you, I Think you might have loved me too
Unlike all the other girls, ideas of girls too
You were, you are different in so many ways and I don't think
That it was one-sided, when I think about you my heart does not sink
That was many years ago. Yet it feels fresh
But do you love me now? Do you wish that I would wait for you
Not seek love in other places, because I've found you...
Do I want that from you? Is that fair?
It's weird you aren't that far away- we could see each other
I think we want to, but we just don't
I don't know what to do, if I love another woman I would be crushed
If I learned you were still waiting there for me
Should we talk about this?
Can we talk about this?
What if there is no this
What if you didn't love me
Or you aren't waiting
Would it matter I'm waiting for you?
I'm not good at waiting I already have other crushes
Is that disloyal? unloving to you?
Does it matter?
Would it matter?
What do you expect of me and what do I expect of you
I don't want to wait forever
I don't want you to wait forever
I don't even know if you ever loved me.
Even if you read this would you know it is you?
I wish I could ask you about our expectations and who's waiting
I want to
But I don't know of I can deal with the answer
Yes or no they are both devastating
What then shall I do?
What will I do?
What am I gonna do?
Am I waiting for you?
