The Voice of Robert Desnos

So like a flower and a current of air
the flow of water fleeting shadows
the smile glimpsed at midnight this excellent evening
so like every joy and every sadness
it is the midnight past lifting its naked body above belfries and poplars
I call to me those lost in the fields
old skeletons young oaks cut down
scraps of cloth rotting on the ground and linen drying in farm country
I call tornadoes and hurricanes
storms typhoons cyclones
tidal waves
earthquakes
I call the smoke of volcanoes and the smoke of cigarettes
the rings of smoke from expensive cigars
I call lovers and loved ones
I call the living and the dead
I call gravediggers I call assassins
I call hangmen pilots bricklayers architects
assassins
I call the flesh
I call the one I love
I call the one I love
I call the one I love
the jubilant midnight unfolds its satin wings and perches on my bed
the belfries and the poplars bend to my wish
the former collapse the latter bow down
those lost in the fields are found in finding me
the old skeletons are revived by my voice
the young oaks cut down are covered with foliage
the scraps of cloth rotting on the ground and in the earth
snap to at the sound of my voice like a flag of rebellion
the linen drying in farm country clothes adorable women
whom I do not adore
who come to me
obeying my voice, adoring
tornadoes revolve in my mouth
hurricanes if it is possible redden my lips
storms roar at my feet
typhoons if it is possible ruffle me
I get drunken kisses from the cyclones
the tidal waves come to die at my feet
the earthquakes do not shake me but fade completely
at my command
the smoke of volcanoes clothes me with its vapors
and the smoke of cigarettes perfumes me
and the rings of cigar smoke crown me
loves and love so long hunted find refuge in me
lovers listen to my voice
the living and the dead yield to me and salute me
the former coldly the latter warmly
the gravediggers abandon the hardly-dug graves
and declare that I alone may command their nightly work
the assassins greet me
the hangmen invoke the revolution
invoke my voice
invoke my name
the pilots are guided by my eyes
the bricklayers are dizzied listening to me
the architects leave for the desert
the assassins bless me
flesh trembles when I call

the one I love is not listening
the one I love does not hear
the one I love does not answer.

Because You Call Me A Friend

I will give you a big hug anytime,

Because you call me a friend.

I will hold your hand when you need it held,

Because you call me a friend.

I will wipe away your tears when you cry,

Because you call me a friend.

I will make you smile when you are down,

Because you call me a friend.

I will help you up when you stumble,

Because you call me a friend.

I will listen when nobody else will listen,

Because you call me a friend.

I will not judge you,

Because you call me a friend.

And when you are mean to me, I will forgive you,

Because you call me a friend.

My friend, you are my crutch when I cannot walk, my eyes when I cannot see through the smoke, my ears when I cannot hear the truth.

THAT'S WHY I'M YOUR FRIEND

Why Do We Call It Love

(l. stansfield/i. devaney/r. darbyshire)
(chorus)
Why do we call it love baby, why do we call it love
Love is something that is sent from heaven up above
Why do we call it love baby, what were we thinking of
I feel it shakin in my bones, and Im feelin awful rough
(bridge)
If sugar is sweet, then theres too much in my tea
And Im sick to my stomach when you creep up on me
Every time that we (ooh), every time we kiss and hug
My insides do the jitterbug, why do we call it love
Why do we call it love
(chorus)
(bridge)
Why do we call it, why do we call it love
Why do we call it, why do we call it, why do we call it love
(bridge)
Why do we call it love (5x)

Lets Just Call It Love

Lets just do it...
Lets just call it love
Is it any wonder I feel beautiful tonight
cause the spell Im under makes the stars shine oh so bright
Is it affection cause I think I like it
Whatever youre doing to me theres no way to describe it
So
Chorus:
Lets just call it love
You call it what you want call it emotion
Lets just call it love
You can call it a feeling call it a notion
Lets just call it love
You can say that its right you can say that its wrong
But baby its just too damn good
Lets just call it love
Lets just call it love
Im caught up in the moment I could be anywhere at all
Aint nothin that can bring me down no cause baby I feel ten feet tall
Is it obsession cause though I like it
Its really taken a hold of me now and I dont want to fight it
No no so
(chorus)
You can call it anything anything at all
We can take it anywhere anywhere we want to
cause you and me baby its what we need
So lets see that sun weve got all night long
Lets go on and on (x 4)

I Hear Your Voice

So many nights thought that I was doing fine
Thought that time had chased your picture from my mind
So many times thought my heart was finally strong
Now I find this heart of mine was so wrong
I thought Id finally learned to get on with my life
I hear your voice-(call)
Your voice (call)
Your voice (call)
The way it used to do
I feel my heart (fall)
I try to keep you off my mind
But every time I do, I hear your voice
So many days I thought that I could love again
But any fool in love would know thats all pretend
You always seem to find your way
Back in my dreams and I cant break free
Chorus
You know I tried so many times just to forget you
Ive tried to walk away from you
Oh girl, its just no use
I hear your voice (call)
Your voice (call)
Your voice (call)
Calling me.. calling me the way...
I feel my heart (fall)
I try to keep you off my mind
But every time I do,
I hear your voice
I hear your voice
I hear your voice

I Call Your Name

Its a madmans situation, reminiscing in the rain,
And Ive lost your love again, I call your name.
And I dont want to think about it when I go to sleep at night,
Can you hear it in the wind? I call your name.
I call your name...
And I close the door behind me, I turn the lights all down,
Theres no-one there beside me, I call your name.
And I dont want to think about it but I wind up all the same,
Nothingll ever change, I call your name.
I call your name...
Lie awake under the stars, lie awake under the stars.
I call your name...
5 : surrender
Written by per gessle
Published by jimmy fun music
She knows Id do anything she wants me to,
The love she finds is deeper than the ocean.
She knows Id do anything she wants me to,
A river of dew, warmer than the dawning.
Surrender - tie the cover to the ground.
Surrender - tie the cover to the ground.
But dont turn around and walk away again.
Dont turn around and walk away again.
He knows Id say anything he wants to hear,
Loud and clear calls the voice of lovers.
He knows Id do anything he wants me to,
Like ruby rain, I wash away the pain.
Surrender...

Missed call

I missed your call
And who are you to call.

Who are you to call me
At this midnight hour
When I am in dream's empire.

Do not call me again
I have no pen.
I can not write
The time of call
How you call
Why you call.
I missed your call
I missed your call.

Devil in Love

Call my name, take my hand
And stab me right in my heart
Call someone, curve the smile
And bury me in your wonderful arm

Call my name, come love none
And hold me with your starving thorns
Call someone, shut my sound
And drink me your sweet poison

Call my name, close my wound
And pierce me thousand more
Call someone, false the mourn
And leave my body in rain storm

Call my name, halt the breath
And whisper me the untold break
Call someone, queen kills clown
And scatter my soul in siren song

Fugue 2 / Song Of Daedalus

Call me cool as january
I walk like the breeze
And wear the world like filigree
Call me too large for life
Thats only sticks and stones
Im standing so tall
It seems that Ive grown
Call me irresponsible
Your rules of the game
Are only clouds to float above
Call me, lets do lunch
When I get time for girls
Im working on things
To astonish the world
Call me weird and laugh at me
I tell you its true
Ive found a cure for gravity
Call me mad as march
High as in hogmanay
Just watch me and weep
Im out of this maze
See the wings made of feathers, of wax and of thread
See me soar high above all the quick and the dead
Call me now
Call me stars and moon and plough
Call me lord, call me sire
Call me earth and wind and fire
Call me judge, call me shah
Call me king, call me tsar
Call me god

I'll Be Around

This is our fork in the road
Love's last episode
There's nowhere to go, oh no
You made your choice
And now it's up to me to bow out gracefully
You know you hold the key, but baby
Whenever you call me, I'll be there
Whenever you want me, I'll be there
Whenever you need me, I'll be there
I'll be around
Oh I, oh I knew just what to say
Now I found out today
That all the words had slipped away, but I know
There's always a chance a tiny spark remains, yeah
And sparks turn into flames
And love can burn once again, show that you know it
Whenever you call me, I'll be there
Whenever you want me, I'll be there
Whenever you need me, I'll be there
I'll be around, be around, oh yeah
Whenever you call me, I'll be there
Whenever you want me, I'll be there
Whenever you need me, I'll be there
I'll be around
Whenever you call me, whenever you call me
Whenever you want me, whenever you want me
Whenever you need me, whenever you need me
I say I'll be around, be around and around
Whenever you call me, oh gonna love you
Whenever you want me, oh I'm going too far from you
Whenever you need me, whenever you need me
I'll be around
Whenever you call me
Whenever you want me
Whenever you want me like I'm gonna give
Whenever you need me, oh don't think I don't need you
I'll be around

Call It What You Want

I can tell youve been watching me, girl, Ive been watching you too.
I got the feeling you want my love, I must admit, I want your love too.
Call it what you want, baby, girl, I call it love.
Call it what you want, darling, I still call it love.
You know theres something about you, girl, what it is its kind a hard to say.
I only wish we could get away, give me love, and Ill lead the way.
Call it....
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na. na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na.
Its so groovy just to be with you.
Its so good, babe, just to dance or anything that you wanna do.
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na. na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na.
I can feel it, I can feel it, I can feel it, I can feel that love, girl.
Its so groovy just to be with you.
Its so good, babe, just to dance or anything that you wanna do.
Call it what you want, Ill still call it love.
Call it anything that you want to, girl, Ill still call it love.
You can call it this, you can call it that, you can call it anything, girl.

Call On Me

When the rain is falling and you feel like you are a stranger
And the time is passing you by is a lonely time and you want to fly
Call on me, call on me
Call on me, call on me
I'll be by your side
When you turn around, needing somebody there
Who can give you love and show you good care
If there's a place inside you that's empty and cold
You may need my love, to have, to hold
Call on me, call on me
Call on me, call on me
I'll be by your side
To keep you satisfied
I want to keep you satisfied
Call on me, call on me
Call on me, call on me
I'll be by your side
To keep you satisfied
When the clear light of a winter's day
Blows cold and hard and the future is grey
You can always have the fire of love
To keep you warm as the sun above
Call on me, call on me
Call on me, call on me
I'll be by your side
To keep you satisfied
I'll be by your side
To keep you satisfied
Don't worry about the rain, baby
I'll keep you dry
I'll keep you warm inside
And satisfied
Don't worry about the rain
I'll keep you dry, I'll keep you dry
Call on me, baby, call on me, baby

For my sisters

The women I call sisters
Are always there
The women I call sisters
Will always care

The women I call sisters
Can make me smile when times are blue
The women I call sisters
Are always very true.

The women I call sisters
By choice, are my best of friends
The women I call sisters
Will be there with me till the world ends

The women I call sisters
Are blessings from God above
The women I call sisters
Are sisters that I'll always love.

Voyeur Of Utter Destruction

Turn and turn again
Turn and turn again
I shake
And stare the sun
Till my eyes burn
I shake
At the mothers
Brutal vermin
I shake
And stare
At the watery moon
With the same desire
As the sober philistine
And i shake
Turn and turn again
Turn and turn again
Worm, the pain and blade
Turn and turn again
The screw
Is a tightening atrocity
I shake
For the reeking flesh
Is as romantic as hell
The need
To have seen it all
The voyeurof utter destruction
As beauty
And i shake
Worm, the pain and blade
Turn and turn again
I shake
Turn and turn again
I shake
I shake
