A Mismanagement Of Fools!
She wakes up from the bed,
Hearing her arise, a dozen eyes open,
Opens the lid to find little left,
the dried eyes, not even struggle.
The crying baby needs to be fed,
Holds him tight near her breast,
The mother cries at the baby's bite,
The baby cries for there is no milk.
Comes out of the hut to look above,
It is clear and clean as someone swept,
She hears the wind at a distance,
And the pot is kept out to collect.
It runs fast carrying all the elixir,
Over the green and blue not at brown,
No visa to enter and exit, O clouds!
Why do you haunt with your sold.
The spring from the underground in middle east,
prosper the desert countries with high rise,
Moscow can bring water from Siberia in tubes,
crying over water is a real mismanagement of fools.

A Drug Infested Mind
A lonely baby cries
as her single mother
tries to open her eyes
A drug infested mind
not allowing her to hear
her baby cry
She keeps telling everyone
everything is fine
so she can keep
living the lie
and living the life
Until she opens her eyes
a lonely baby still cries

Her Far Away Eyes
I heard a baby crying
as I passed an open door,
I guessed that it was hungry,
but I didn't know for sure.
It's cry changed to one of pain,
and it got beneath my skin.
I wondered why it had been left to cry,
it was most unsettling.
It's calling stopped me in my tracks,
I hesitated not knowing what to do.
The baby's crying was upsetting me,
it's attention was long overdue.
I knocked, and shouted into the house,
but no one responded to my call.
The ceaseless crying drew me inside
where I saw a woman lying in the hall.
I assumed it was the mother,
that lay impervious to the cries.
Beside her was the cause of her neglect,
and the look in her far away eyes.

A Bundle Of Joy...
Baby, can bring you a heaven sent joy.
Baby, , , can cause you to weep, tears of rain.
Baby...can fill you with pride, like no other.
Baby...will bring you tenderness, beyond description.
Is there anything, that can compare, to being with
baby...in a quiet moment.?
My, how the love does flow, as one holds their baby.
Baby, who can have you make a fool of yourself, as
contort your face, to make them laugh.
And have you ever noticed yourself, speaking baby
talk...better than your baby?
Baby, who by their mere glimpse, can bring you
running, crying...laughing at the world.
Baby, a true miracle of innocence, in a chaotic world.
Baby, seems to justify our being...our life.
Baby...Baby...Baby...what would we do without them?
Baby...the real proof, that God is at work.
Only A Baby Can...

How much I love you, baby
How much I want to be
Your only man, oh, baby, my baby, my baby
And baby, baby, baby, you don't have to go

I tell you no lie, this is how I feel

Lovin' you more till the die I die
Take to the sky on a natural high
Lovin' you, kissin' you, tellin' you why

Wipe the tears from your eyes

Baby Blue
She looked so much like a lady
But she was so much like a child
A devil when she held me close
An angel when she smiled
She always held it deep inside
But somehow I always knew
Shed go away when the grass turned green
And the sky turned baby blue
Chorus:
Baby blue
Was the color of her eyes
Baby blue
Like the colorado skies
Like a breath of spring she came and left
And I still dont know why
So, heres to you and whoever
Holds my baby blue tonight
She brought color to my life
That my eyes have never touched
When she taught me how to care
Ive never cared so much
I try not to think of her
But I fall asleep and do
And go away where the grass turns green
And the sky is baby blue

When Love Cries
Baby you
turned my world into something new
nights are long when you're far away
hunger for you every night and day
whisper softly to the wind
need you back in my arms again
passion calls from deep inside
it only happens when my love cries
You make my heart sing (x3)
when love cries
you make my heart sing (x3)
when love cries...love cries...love cries
And when I am blue
close my eyes and dream of you
silent echoes scream out your name
you're the keeper of my flame
I'll survive on desire
'til I'm closer to your burning fire
ride a star across the sky
I need you here when my love cries
You make my heart sing (x3)
when love cries
you make my heart sing (x3)
when love cries...love cries
you make my hear sing (x6)
when love cries
Ooh baby

just to feel you

North of North
I’m treading shallow water
and there’s moss on all sides of the trees
evergreen
this must be north,
north of north.
“Sometimes I am rock-like
and sometimes I am herring
and sometimes I am you.”
I say this while the water works like wind
upon my eyelashes.
When you are underwater you are always crying
or never crying
and it doesn’t look so blue.
Your boots are territorially based,
rock and rock and mud.
“Do you plan on swimming the whole way? ”
I close my eyes like you don’t exist
like I am being eaten by a bear
like the water is my water and I am dying.
Then I am crying real salt tears
into the real fresh water
and I think of the tree you cut down
and how it cried real maple tears
and surrendered.
“No, ” I say. “We’re here.”

Dont Drink The Water
This a religion
No, this a drag
That man over there is smoking sweet cigarettes
Hey look at that fag !
I had a dream
I saw you swim
Sink to your grave
Down to davy jones locker
Under the waves
Dont say thank God for simple truths
Take me to your leader
Take me for a ride
The shutters were never open
The day I used to hide
All of the things
I never knew
I should have said
When you looked like frida kahlo
Curled up in bed
Dont say thank God for simple truths
Dont drink the water, baby
Dont drink the water, baby
So much emotion, these eyes a strange kind of blue
Deep as the ocean, they named a sea after you
Dont say thank God for simple truths
Dont drink the water, baby
Dont drink the water, baby
Dont drink the water, baby
Dont drink the water, baby

Don't Be Sad, Don't Be Blue
Don’t be sad, baby
Don’t be blue
It makes me sad, baby
To see you feel as bad as you do
Don’t be sad, baby
Don’t be blue
For with each tear,
You will shed a little truth
Sex is a currency
Who you believe, can often torment you
Don’t look back, baby
If it bothers you
It’s a fact baby
That the world can both hurt or comfort you
Don’t be sad
Don’t be blue
For if you cry
I’ll know I’ve failed you
And with each tear, all that I fear
Will come true
So don’t be sad
Don’t be blue
Don’t let the moon catch you crying
Crying in my arms
He’ll think I hurt you, baby
He’ll think I done you harm
Don’t be sad
Don’t be blue
Don’t be sad
Don’t be blue
Don’t be sad
Don’t be blue

I want you to stand up tall and proud
And I want you to speak up clear and loud

As years go by I want you to go with your head up high
I want you to live by the justice code
And I want you to walk down freedoms road

So lie away lie away spleeping lie away singing
Lie away sleeping lie away safe in my arms
Till your daddy and you mama protect you

When out of mens heart all hate is hurled
Sweetie you gonna live in a better world

Lie alone in bed at night
Feel the pull of a lonely day
Thoughts like music start to play
I wonder where you were today

When the whole worlds sleeping

Close to you I feel your sweet heart beating

Late at night late at night
Honey late at night I dream of you

Looking Out My Window
Words and music by Tom Jones
(Now people you know who I am,
and you know what I can do,
but I got a problem now and Im gonna tell you about it,
Im looking for this woman, ysee,
Listen, this is the way the story goes)
Looking out my window
Looking at the rain
Nothing left but pain
Whyd you go and leave me
Sad alone and blue
Looking out my window woman
Tryin to find you
Why did you leave me?
Why did you grieve me?
Looking out my window
What do I see?
Nobodys crying
Half as bad as me
I dont think that they feel
So alone and blue
Looking out my window baby
Trying to find you
Why did you leave me?
Why did you grieve me?
Id like to tell you about
This little girl that left
Me so alone and blue
The trouble is if I paint the
Picture too well you
Might fall in love with her too
She was about 5-6
A little bag of tricks
My mama told me to watch myself but I didnt listen
Because for you baby Id scratch out my eye
Looking out my window
Down the railroad track
Waiting for that little brown eyed girl
Shes coming back
I gotta hear that whistle blowing
Down the line
Come back girl
Shell be mine, oh mine
Why did you leave me?
Why did you grieve me?
Woah
Baby come on home
Im so alone
Yknow I dont care what the world might say
Im gonna love you
Oh baby
Im down on my knees
And Im beggin you please
Ah
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby,
I love you, I love you
Come on home, come on home baby, come on home baby, come on home baby, to me.

Lighting Crashes
Lightning crashes a new mother cries
Her placenta falls to the floor
The angel opens her eyes
The confusion sets in
Before the doctor can even close the door
Lightning crashes an old mother dies
Her intentions fall to the floor
The angel closes her eyes
The confusion that was hers
Belongs now to the baby down the hall
1-Oh now feel it, comin' back again
Like a rollin', thunder chasing the wind
Forces pullin' from
The center of the earth again
I can feel it.
Lightning crashes a new mother cries
This moment she's been waiting for
The angel opens her eyes
Pale blue colored iris
Presents the circle
And puts the glory out to hide, hide
(repeat 1, 1, 1)

Baby's Eyes
Baby's eyes
Are looking at you
He may be wondering who I am
I am his uncle
Baby's eyes
So blue
Like the color of the sky
It sparkles
It has so much life
In that little baby eyes that I can see
And I know that his eyes are happy
I see it
That baby is a happy and healthy baby
I am so glad for that
Baby's eyes
Has not even a tear
Baby's eyes
Are so beautiful
To watch
Baby's eyes

Now it is the time for the baby's nap time

Sweet dreams little baby

Ooh Baby Baby
I did you wrong
My heart went out to play
But in the game I lost you
What a price to pay
Im crying - ooh baby, baby
Mistakes
I know Ive made a few
But Im only human
Youve made mistakes too
Im crying - ooh, baby, baby
Im just about at
The end of my rope
But I cant stop trying
I cant give up hope
cause I believe
One day Ill hold you near
Whisper I still love you
Until that day is here
Im crying - ooh baby, baby

Mother sky cries when the leaves turn from green to gold
Mother sky cries when the leaves die and the weather turns cold

Mother sky cries and baby flower is born
