Morning tea

Beam of sun rays
enters bed room making its ways
I pull cover over face
beliveing dream, it may

As hear chime of spoon
stirring in the cup
and listen 'its ready'
have reason to get up

My heart, my mind
even throat and tongue
as I wake, a cup of tea;
all they demand

Difficulty comes
when she is not there
though I don't miss
get up and myself prepare

My Dream

My Aim is my Dream
I always Dream about my Aim

And Dream and Dream about my aim
My Aim is not to dream, which comes and goes
But still, I Dream and Dream about my Aim

I Dream about my Aim to reach the Fame
To Reach Fame, I Dream about my Aim
To reach Fame, I should not only Aim, but I should climb the Beam

I Should Climb the Beam to have my Dream
When I acquire my Dream, I will acquire my Aim
Because my Dream is about my Aim
I have an Aim which will bring me the Fame
To have the Fame, I have to climb the Beam
To have the Fame, I wanted to climb the Beam

The Beam of Dedication, the Beam of Hard-work,
The beam of Difficulty and the Beam of Obstacles
When I want to have the Fame I have to climb the Beam
When I Climb the Beam, I will have my Fame.

And I Dream and Dream about my Aim
My Aim will always bring me Fame.

You too Dream about your aim
But your Aim should not become a Dream.

I Say to You

Every night I think of you
in my dreams, in solitude
And wake up as the moon goes by
To prepare itself for another night.

The wind waiting, to get in through
As I open the window pane,
And feel the rays of the sun
Washing down the dream from my face.

But as I hear your voice, it fades
All my pain, all the smiles
But I do face another dilemma,
To tell you what my heart says.

I wait for the time to tell you that
And wonders when it’d arise
Shall it be now, or a little late?
Or let it wait for another day?

The days passed, all one by one
As the weeks, so thus the months
But it is the night, in solitude,
In my dreams, I say to you…

Makeup

When you wake up in the morning
And you put the makeup upon your face
Do you try to cover up the age and lines
Or only the sins and deceptions and the disgrace.
Do you try to place on a happy smile
By putting bright lipstick upon your lips
Or do you try to cover up your own hard life
Something that someone like you never forgets.
And as you look into your mirror
Do you powder the many lines upon your face
The lines that has stretched from years ago
Unto the present days of your life and waste.
Do you try to cover up the bags under your eyes
From all the many restless and sleepless nights
The nights when you cared not where you went
As long as you went and held on to someone tight.
Do you place the powder upon your cheeks
To make you look so cheerful and so very nice
But as they say you cant judge a book by its cover
And if they knew you, they need only to think twice.
And as you are preparing yourself for the day
With your makeup in front of you and on the shelf
Does it take you a little longer to put it on each day
As you try to cover yourself up and become someone else.
The makeup you have will you pass it along one day
And then show someone else how to cover up their lines
Maybe your sisters or even maybe your daughters
That is though if they need to cover up their lying.
And do you ever step back away from your mirror
Do you ever try to look at yourself as a whole
Does it ever bring tears into your heart and eyes
Do you ever wish that you still had a soul.
So as your prepare to start your brand new morning
With your lipstick and powders and so much more
Do you ever wish that you could just wash your face clean
And never have to cover up your ways and lies from the nights before.

Making Love Out Of Nothing At All

(jim steinman)
I know just how to whisper,
And I know just how to cry;
I know just where to find the answers;
And I know just how to lie.
I know just how to fake it,
And I know just how to scheme;
I know just when to face the truth,
And then I know just when to dream.
And I know just where to touch you,
And I know just what to prove;
I know when to pull you closer,
And I know when to let you loose.
And I know the night is fading,
And I know that times gonna fly;
And Im never gonna tell you everything
Ive got to tell you,
But I know Ive got to give it a try.
And I know the roads to riches,
And I know the ways to fame;
I know all the rules
And then I know how to break em
And I always know the name of the game.
But I dont know how to leave you,
And Ill never let you fall;
And I dont know how you do it,
Making love out of nothing at all
(making love)
Out of nothing at all,
(making love)
Out of nothing at all,
(making love)
Out of nothing at all,
(making love)
Out of nothing at all,
(making love)
Out of nothing at all
(making love)
Out of nothing at all.
Every time I see you all the rays of the sun
Are streaming through the waves in your hair;
And every star in the sky is taking aim
At your eyes like a spotlight,
The beating of my heart is a drum, and its lost
And its looking for a rhythm like you.
You can take the darkness from the pit of the night
And turn into a beacon burning endlessly bright.
Ive got to follow it, cause everything I know, well its nothing till I give it to you.
I can make the run or stumble,
I can make the final block;
And I can make every tackle, at the sound of the whistle,
I can make all the stadiums rock.
I can make tonight forever,
Or I can make it disappear by the dawn;
And I can make you every promise that has ever been made,
And I can make all your demons be gone.
But Im never gonna make it without you,
Do you really want to see me crawl?
And Im never gonna make it like you do,
Making love out of nothing at all.
(making love)
Out of nothing at all
(making love)
Out of nothing at all
(making love)
Out of nothing at all
(making love)
Out of nothing at all
(making love)
Out of nothing at all
(making love)
Out of nothing at all
(making love)

State Of The Union (In Closing)

we, the working people
of America, demand our dignity!
we demand equality, and fairness!

we are all immigrants here!
yet no human being is illegal.
we demand the right to work,
and to educate our children.
we demand shelter, and healthcare!

we are a hard working, hard fighting
people... we demand a
hard working, hard fighting President!

we know that you are limited
by the hand of the controlling elite,
at the mercy of the corporate machine.
dont be just a figurehead.
your choice!

freedom is a work in progress.
the real revolution is in
the human heart, in the mind.
we are ready for change,
and willing to act.
be ready, and willing!

there are no small people,
we are all people.
we will not be owned!

we cannot go back to the
bigoted, ignorant ways of the past.
you are our best option,
be the man!

most of all, we demand the action
that follows words well spoken.
be the action!

I miss you so much

Here I am sat thinking about you,
Im sure I hear you call my name,
Amy, Amy, Amy.
As I turn to see who's calling me
I see no one, only hear your voice.
What are you Trying to tell me?

I glance across the room,
To see if anyone else hears it too.
But no one seems to notice the look of shock on my face.

I miss you so much, I keep telling you,
But you don't seem to hear me.
I wish Id told you I loved you more.

Still you're calling out my name, only louder,
As the tears roll down my face,
I miss you all the more.
As I look around the room.
I expect to see you there.

Then I realized you are gone.
I look to see if any one else has heard you too.
Seems it's only me who heard.

Are you trying to tell me something.
Cos i want you to no I love you.
I miss you and think about you all the time.

Disinherit

Cut the back, pull the stuffing.
Cut the girl down to nothing.
Feed the boy.
...
Disinfect the house.
Disinherit. x3
And its creeping up, I spy it.
And its crushing at my throat
And its seizing my tongue and Im numb.
And its bleeding on my face
And its foaming at the mouth
And its gnawing on my bones...
And hes rolling up his sleeve
And he feeds me
And hes memorizing me
And hes making his mark
And hes making his mark
Stop the car.
Still the engine.
Save your best until now.
Dig your nails in.

In Absence

WAKE, do you wake in the dark in the strange far place,
Window and door not set like the ones we knew,
Leaning your face through the dark for another face,
Stretching your arms to the arms that are far from you,
Even as I, through the depth of this darkness, do?

Sleep, do you sleep in the house in the lonely land?
In the lonely room do you hear no steps draw near?
Do you miss in the darkness the hand that implores your hand,
See through the darkness your last dream disappear,
And weep, as I weep, in the outer darkness here?

Dream, do you dream? Nay, never a dream will stay,
Never a phantom is fond, or a vision kind.
Your dreams elude you and fly through the dark my way,
My dreams fly forth to you whom they may not find;
And we in the darkness weep, we weep and are left behind.

Words You Say

Words you say to me
I listen in sympathy
But I dont know what it is
That makes me ignore you.
I hear you every night
I listen but the words
Dont seem right
My mind seems somewhere else
What else can I tell you?
I dont know what to do
Im losing you
Something I cant control
You are in my heart and soul.
I dont want to wake up now
I dont want to wake up now
I dont want to wake up now
I dont want to wake up now.
Words you say to me
Im living in fantasy
If I dont know what it is
I simply ignore you.
I hear you every night
I listen but the time is never right
My life is so confused
What more can I tell you?
Dont turn and walk away
Dont leave this way
Something I cant control
You are in my heart and soul.
I dont want to wake up now

Wake Up Screaming

(jim lauderdale/john leventhal)
Used to sleep through the night peacefully
Not a care in the world got to me
But now I lay me down to sleep
Im afraid of what I might see
I wake up screamin' when your dream goes by
Used to feel like a man in control
Unaware of the storm in my soul
The sight of you took away my breath
I wake up screamin' when your dream goes by
Now in this dream Im in a room
All dressed up just like a groom
Watchin' shadows dance in the ledge
Suddenly you then appear you whisper in my hear
And I jump right over the edge
Just a dream that I seem to recall
Cant you tell me which doctor to call
Tell him please Im not feelin too well
Everynight Im hearin' wedding bells
I wake up screamin' when your dream goes by
I lay there in an ice cold sweat
Sheets are torn and theyre soakin' wet
I wake up screamin' when your dream goes by
I wake up screamin' when your dream goes by
I wake up screamin' when your dream goes by

You may strike, but hear him first

Is it not wise and kind
To ask first
Why?

Hear his side
And listen
Demand always
An
Explanation
Or a
Justification

Then

If there is reason enough
Strike! Strike if you must
With a club
Or a fist
Or a very harsh word
A stab
Or hack or shoot or bomb

Be always fair
If you fight as you
Think you
Finally must

Let him know
Let him
Also prepare
For his
Defense

Let there be fairness
In war
And in peace.

My Juliet, My Love My Dragon-fly

When I dream the dream of paradise
I see a picture of you
And when I dream the dream of love and care
I see a picture of us two

And when I dream a dream of loneliness
I see a shadow on the wall
Looking back at me like
I'm nothing at all

But those dreams a quickly chased away
When I wake up to a sunny day
And I see your pretty face right by my side

When I dream a dream of smiling
The room is full of you
And if I dream a dream of candy land
The sweetest thing is you

And if the nightmare comes along
To say its fond goodbyes
The thought of you will stop it
before those dreams arise

Because with you sharing my bed at night
My dream will always come out right
And tomorrow will always be another day

If I dream a dream while I'm awake
That dream will be of you
If I dream a dream of wedding cakes
I'll dream a dream of you

And when I dream a dream of a loving wife
That dream will be of you
And if I dream a dream of growing old
I'll be growing old with you

And if my dream were ever to come true
I know it will be because of you
And that's the reason that I love you so.

Missing You

I miss lying next to you.
Feeling your breath on my neck,
My face.
Miss reaching for someone
Who knew me
Every hill and valley
Every crevice.
The good and bad of me.
The real of me.
You were the end of me.
I miss the simple things
That were so easy between us.
One look that made me laugh
One look that made me sad
That look you gave
That let me know.
That secret language no one else spoke.
I miss exchanging my breath
With someone who could make me stop breathing
Just by walking into the room
Make my heart skip a beat
Make me sway.
I miss you in so many little ways.
Will I miss you
The rest of my days?
I don't like feeling the space
That dip in my bed forever shaped like your body.
I miss lying next to you
When you would face me and we'd talk
While you traced my face with your fingers
Held me with your gaze
Let me spill my secret fears
Kissed me gently and made me feel safe.
I miss you in so many little ways.
I hate walking into a room
Where someone else smells like your cologne.
This loneliness has an ebb and flow
That pulls at my memories of you.
I wish you would go
And take your ghost.
Being haunted by memories
Makes it hard to move on.
I want to exercise you
But, really, I don't.
I want to be at peace though,
And a chance to move on and grow.

One Good Reason

(eric woolfson - lead vocal)
Gimme one good reason why I should listen to you
I need one good reason why I should do
What you want me to
Gimme some air or I cant breathe
I cant see so I cant believe
Show me just a little more
Oh oh gimme one
Gimme one good reason why I should listen to you
I need one good reason why I should do
What you want me to
Under your thumb aint no place to hide
I cant choose and I cant decide
Gotta be a better way
Oh oh gimme one
I keep making the same mistake
No win no lose no give and no take
Im just playing a simple game
And I dont wanna ask you again and again
For one good reason why I should listen to you
Just one good reason why I should do
What you want me to
Under your spell aint no place to be
Dont mess around with a fool like me
Help me just a little more
Oh oh gimme one, gimme one
Well I keep making the same mistake
No win no lose no give and no take
And Im just playing a simple game
And I dont wanna ask you again and again
For one good reason why I should listen to you
Just one good reason why I should do
What you want me to
Pull on the string you hold in your hand
Making me jump like a one man band
Gotta be a better way
Oh oh gimme one

The Policeman's Lot

When a felon's not engaged in his employment,
Or maturing his felonious little plans,
His capacity for innocent enjoyment
Is just as great as any honest man's.
Our feelings we with difficulty smother
When constabulary duty's to be done:
Ah, take one consideration with another,
A policeman's lot is not a happy one!

When the enterprising burglar isn't burgling,
When the cut-throat isn't occupied in crime,
He loves to hear the little brook a-gurgling,
And listen to the merry village chime.
When the coster's finished jumping on his mother,
He loves to lie a-basking in the sun:
Ah, take one consideration with another,
The policeman's lot is not a happy one!

Adam to Your Eve

If I were the 'up' to your downs...
I'd pull your smile right up off the ground,
Oh!
And I would be the Adam to your Eve.
And I would be sure you'd be treated,
Equally.

If I were the Sun to your moon...
I'd heat you up from morning 'til noon,
Oh!
And I'd make sure I'd beam you with my rays.
To keep a smile on your pretty face...
To glow!

And...
If we were the lovers I see.
The ones depicted on movie screens,
Oh!
There would be no reason to leave.
Since we would be here happily,
Eternally!

And...
If I were the 'up' to your downs...

Ready For Autumn

i am ready for autumn,
my heart's been there for some time.
and there are nights when i wake
to the taste of snowflakes on my tongue.
i've turned in color, burned with passion,
now i await the fall.
the lips of my creek yearn for ice,
i watch the birds prepare to fly!

You can take the darkness from the pit of the night
And turn into a beacon burning endlessly bright
I gotta follow it
Cause everything I own, now
Its nothing till I give it to you
I can make you find your power
I can make you lose your fear
I can make your body do some very magical things
Ill make your inhibitions all disappear
I can make tonight forever
Or I can make it disappear by the dawn
And I can make you every promise that has ever been made
And I can make all your demons be gone
But Im never gonna make it without you
Do you really wanna see me crawl
And Im never gonna make it like you do

Silver Spoon

I aint lookin like nobodys fool, save it for somebody else
And I aint makin any desperate move, till Im satisfied myself
I aint waitin for no invitation, I just wanna walk on thru
I never needed anybody, and like my daddy said
Chorus:
I wasnt born with a silver spoon, nowhere to hide in a crowded room
I see the attitude thats in your eyes, I got no reason to apologize
cos whats so special bout a girl like you, with a silver spoon
In a city where the buildings rise, I was just another face
But mama told me when somebody dies, no one else can take your place
I never needed anybody, and like my daddy said
I wasnt born with a silver spoon, nowhere to hide in a crowded room
I see the attitude thats in your eyes, I got no reason to apologize
cos Ive got something for a girl like you, with a silver spoon
I always knew Id be somebody, I kept it in my head
I never needed anybody, and like my daddy said

Because I Love You

Its time now to leave
Quiet the mind of its chatter
Still the riot in your heart
Disarm the tongue of its dagger
Tell your arms not to worry so
And listen.....
Step into it
Lift your face into the strong wind
Least we miss its meaning
Such cold beauty exists here
Do you see it?
Like the landscape
Frozen & waiting to be born
Let me bundle you in clothing
And soft things
Because I love you
I will not send you out into the night
With teeth marks & pride I have stripped you of
We will prepare each other
We will make up our own ceremony
I will draw a compass on your belly
Tell me that its ok
Before you turn me loose
Into the endless sky
Let me kiss you & then send you on your way
For winters can be long
And I will need a friend
