Sometimes What You Cover With Your Hands
sometimes what you cover with your hands
if they misinterpret that
is not really intended for hiding
not the selfishness of your very own fingers
but
if they only know it by heart
are offerings asking
if you too are ready and willing to give them
the way you cover things are manners of asking
are you also willing to give
and give wholeheartedly without asking for
anything in return?
sometimes let me tell you
when i cover some lovely parts of myself
which you misinterpret again as
utter selfishness
nay, it is not the way you see things
skin deep
stones protruding on the low
ebbing of the season
sometimes let me tell you
when i cover the most vulnerable portion of my being
it is, in truth, just a manner of my asking
if indeed, in itself, and by itself,
if your love is true.

Concealment And Covering
you conceal so many things
for so many reasons
you cover them
for so many ratiocinations
you cover you cup of coffee
so it may not get cold that easily
in the same manner you cover your cooking pot
so it may get hot earlier and at least fuel
you cover your ears perhaps because there's so much noise
you cover your head because it may be so hot or there may be rain
you cover your book to protect it from stains
you cover your furnitures because there is so much dust
you cover your body, your heart, your mind
for so many reasons
to each his own because we want to survive we want to live
we want to be just left to ourselves in our chosen privacies
no one has ever said that survival is a crime, a sin, a wrong,
it is the most fitting thing to do, and you must do it too.

Bring Me To The Power
(anderson/howe)
This day began the matrix of the real world thinking
This way is meant to surface through the net
This train is set to mystify
This day began the history of the future
This train is set to justify
Whether youre ready or not
This day is of the meeting now
If they dont give us the keys
How are we supposed to get ready?
If they dont give us the keys
How are we to survive?
Cover me up and bring me to the power
Cover me up and bring me to the power
Cover me up and bring me to the power
All I know is all I want to give you
Cover me up me -? - to the fire
Cover me up get closer to the power
Cover me up get closer to the power
Cover me up get closer now
Cover me up get closer to the power
Got talk got talk
Got talk got talk
Revelation
Got talk revelation
Got got talk got talk
Revelation
If they dont give them the keys
If we dont give them the keys
How are they supposed to be ready?
If we dont give them the keys
How are they to devine?
If we dont give them the keys
How are they supposed to be ready?
If we dont give them the keys
How are they to survive?
Cover me up and bring me to the power
(cover me up get closer to the power)
Cover me up and bring me revelation
If we dont give them the keys
How are they supposed to be ready?
If you dont give them the keys
How are they to survive?
The power of love can open
Every heart in everyone

Here I Come-3
Hold me forever
With your Almighty Hands
Tell me again
I'm forgiven
Feed me
The Body and the Blood
For here I come
Through the narrow gate
Leaving the sanctuary cleanse.
Cover me
With blessings
As I cover my flock
Hold me up
Hold me up
Strong Tower
Love Everlasting.
As I travel
Life's highway
Give me a heart
For the least of these
Give me a heart
For the despised
Above all
Give me your heart.
Possessed me
With the Holy Spirit
And let me bear
The fruits thereof.
Cover me
With blessings
As I cover my flock
Hold me up
Hold me up
Strong Tower
Love Everlasting.
Hold me up!

Cover Me
Im not afraid
I can count on you
To catch me now
Ill just let go
One thing is true you wont let me down
With your arms around to
Cover me
With the sweetest touch Ive ever known
Cover me
You wont let me face love alone
I know that smile
Its like a shelter over me
Your arms will reach me wherever my heart leads
Ill blindly believe youll
Cover me
With the sweetest touch Ive ever known
Cover me
You wont let me face love alone
Cover me
I lay beneath the sky above
I close my eyes and let your love
Cover me
Cover me
With the sweetest touch Ive ever known
Cover me
You wont let me face love alone
Cover me
With the sweetest touch Ive ever known
Cover me
You wont let me face love alone

Cover Me
The times are tough now, just getting tougher
This old world is rough, its just getting rougher
Cover me, come on baby, cover me
Well Im looking for a lover who will come on in and cover me
Promise me baby you wont let them find us
Hold me in your arms, lets let our love blind us
Cover me, shut the door and cover me
Well Im looking for a lover who will come on in and cover me
Outsides the rain, the driving snow
I can hear the wild wind blowing
Turn out the light, bolt the door
I aint going out there no more
This whole world is out there just trying to score
Ive seen enough I dont want to see any more,
Cover me, come on and cover me
Im looking for a lover who will come on in and cover me
Looking for a lover who will come on in and cover me

Medicate
I got somethin' up my sleeve
I know you will cover me
inside out and in between
I know you will cover me
I've got bruises on my knees
I know you will cover me
inside out and in between
and I know you will cover me
[chorus]
Run away
make hate
and get laid
we get laid
you turn me up
I've had enough
so medicate
medicate
I'm already incomplete
I know you will cover me
broken by your empathy
I know you will cover me
I've been lyin' here for weeks
I know you will cover me
inside out and in between
and I know you will cover me

Mr. Alphabet Says
Here comes the book
The book of rules
If you play this game
You won't stay the same
You could win your golden teeth
Be a spinning top
Use a riding crop
Mr alphabet says
"smile like a weasel
As i cover you...
Cover you in treacle"
We all know impatience
Is a sin..so do as you're
Told to do, it's so rewarding to...
And you could win the tin man's heart
Be a chiming clock
Lie on the chopping block
Mr. alphabet says
"give me all your money
Just to cover you
Cover you in honey"
Don't be afraid
There's no marmalade
Don't be afraid
I wouldn't even dream of it!

When theres clouds hangin in your sky
And theyre just not lettin any light in
And you feel like youd like to give in
Dont give up so soon

Ill be the one to take you through the night
Whenever you need shelter

When your heart needs a heart beside it

Stay until
You're sure that i'm asleep
Warm safe and very still
Give all my things away
Just wait until tomorrow
Bury me in sorrow
Cover me in joy
Every afternoon i wasted being mad at You
The things I never said
The things I can't say tomorrow
Bury me in sorrow
Cover me in joy
After death i'll think of You somehow
I'll have an eternity to think about tomorrow
I beg of You tomorrow
Bury me in sorrow
Cover me in joy

Cover You
You could read her lips well as I was able
She was into taking you where you aint been
I was looking in at the stroke of twelve
She came in the back door
You could see her climb the stairs
And the two of us , we wait , we wait
Ill cover you, girl I cover you
Cover you with...
Cover you with kisses
Shower you with love
Twist you up and turn you round
All night , all night
Cover you with kisses
Taste you with my tongue
Live on itchy fingers
All night long , all night
You could see her legs underneath the table
You could see the burn was on when she moved on you
I think I went insane
When the flesh is weak
The more that we discover
If we only trust just the two of us
You play me , you play me
Ill cover you , girl I cover you
Cover you with ....
Cover you with kisses
Taste you with my tongue
Live on itchy fingers
All night long, all night
Born to make love she was
To get up you go down
Its easy
Cover you with kisses
Shower you with love
Twist you up and turn you round
All night, all night
Cover you with kisses
Taste you with my tongue
Live on itchy fingers
All night long, all night

How Will You Go
Escape is on your mind again
Escape to a far away land
Sometimes it sems there is no end
To long hard nights of drinking
How will you go
How will you go
Drive through the wind and the rain
Cover it up
Cover it up
I'll find you a shelter to sleep in
Fell over on the couch again
But you know not all sleep is wasted
Your dreams are alcohol inspired
I can't find a better way to face it
How will you go
How will you go
Drive through the wind and the rain
Cover it up
Cover it up
I'll find you a shelter to sleep in
And you know I'll be fine
Just don't ask me how it's going
Give me time, give me time
'Cause I want you to see
That the world, that the world
Is a tangled up necklace of pearls
How will you go
How will you go
Drive through the wind and the rain
Cover it up
Cover it up
I'll find you a shelter to sleep in

No Cover Up
Ladies truth is about the proper…
Perspective on a turn of events…
No cover up…
Seeing what you think you…(see) …
Is not truth…
But a look into the truth…
No cover up…
The more light or understanding…
The purer the truth…
Don't get cocky…
Be profound…
Be inbound with yourself…
Be come the (right to flight) …
Be seen as the queen…
You are the queen…
Don't let it be just a dream…
No cover up…
Let the turn of events ring true…
You are the who…
The what and where…
You never need to be blue…
A real queen grows through you…
So be the light house of womanhood…
Deep inside you are properly…(created good) …
No cover up…
A wiser woman, is withstanding…
Not demanding…

You Cant Judge A Book
You cant judge a book by looking at the cover
No, you cant judge a man by looking at the cover
And you cant judge a book by looking at the cover
When I was young and went to school
My mama taught me the magic rule
And what she said I tried my best to follow
She said
You cant judge a book by looking at the cover
No, you cant judge a man by looking at the cover
And you cant judge a book by looking at the cover
Then I left school and moved around
And what I saw and what I found
Made me remember what she said to follow
She said
You cant judge a book by looking at the cover
No, you cant judge a man by looking at the cover
And you cant judge a book by looking at the cover
And now I think, by now Id know, that what appears is not always so
And I remember what she said to follow
She said
You cant judge a book by looking at the cover
No, you cant judge a man by looking at the cover
And you cant judge a book by looking at the cover

Cover You In Oil
I like to slip into something good
I see a young girl in the neighbourhood
The way she move, I must confess
I like to run my hands up and down her legs
The way she dress, she look so fine
Ill make her wet, Ill make her mine
She like it hard, she like it slow
All right honey, come on lets go
Baby feel what you want, its the way she move
Baby feel what you need, come on lets go
Chorus:
Cover you in oil
Let me cover you in oil
I wanna cover you in oil
Cover you in oil
Pull on the zip, she give good lip service
Its nothing for the show, I just pay to see her go
She make you hot, you spray your lot
Come on in honey, were headin to the top
The way she push, dont give a dime
Abuse your life, gonna make you satisfied
Shes kinda rough, she give it tough
Come on honey and strut your stuff
Baby feel what you want, its the way she move
Baby feel what you need, come on lets go

Cover You In Kisses
(jerry kilgore/brett jones/jess brown)
You say its cold back there in denver
A foot of new snow on the ground
Youre all bundled up in blankets
Id give anything to be there with you now
Id cover you in kisses
Hold you in my arms
Thats all that I can think of
Every minute were apart
Darlin Ive been livin
For the moment that we touch
So I can cover you in kisses
And wrap you in my love
Baby keep that fire burnin
Pour a glass of that sweet wine
Let your hair down on your shoulders
And Ill be there just in time
To cover you in kisses
Hold you in my arms
Thats all that I can think of
Every minute were apart
Darlin Ive been livin
For the moment that we touch
So I can cover you in kisses
And wrap you in my love

For the moment that we touch
So I can cover you in kisses
And wrap you in my love
I wanna cover you in kisses
