Morning Rush At West
Have to wake up,
before the tiredness,
of yesterdays fades away.
Loving spouse still at bed,
exhausted as usual,
crying baby in the crib.
Mounting clothes,
in the dryer,
cleaned dishes in the washer.
Have to put back,
where these belong,
but I am drowsy for long.
Waking alarms irritates,
brush and shower in minutes,
instant breakfast suffice.
Arms carry the crying baby,
elbow carries the baby bag,
Heart carries the sorrow.
Three of us set,
for regular journey,
baby at nanny, we at work.
The first hour,
after we wake up,
festivities at home.
Sometimes it thunders,
and rains from the eyes,
Morning rush manifests.

Wake Up
You used to be my closest ally
In this cold, cold world of deception and lies
We would defend and protect one another
Now I can't tell if we are enemies or lovers
So who's gonna rescue us from ourselves
When we gonna wake up
Baby, it's time for loving
When we gonna wake up
My baby, before it's too late
Oh baby
Where did we go wrong, baby
Did this cold, cold world turn us into stone
Well
Now all that battle
Is your ego and your pride
It's ticking like a time bomb
Ready to ignite
Hurtin' me to fight
So who's gonna rescue us from ourselves
When we gonna wake up
Baby, it's time for loving
When we gonna wake up
My baby, before it's too late
When we gonna wake up
Baby, it's time for loving
When we gonna wake up
My baby, before it's too late
When the smoke clears
What will be left for us but tears and pains
Why must we argue over the same things
Just to make your friend go back again
It's never too late
It's been too long
Can't get it right when no one thinks they're wrong
Gotta get out of the bed
And take a look what's going on
Oh when we gonna wake up
Baby, it's time for loving
When we gonna wake up
My baby, before it's too late
When we gonna wake up
Baby, it's time for loving
When we gonna wake up
My baby, before it's too late
When we gonna wake up
Baby, it's time for loving
When we gonna wake up
My baby, before it's too late
Oh baby (wake up)
Oh darling (wake up)
When are we gonna wake up (wake up)
When are we gonna take a look and see (wake up)
What's going on (wake up)
Oh what's going on (wake up)
It was wasting so much time (wake up)
And we're about to lose it all (wake up)
Oh baby baby baby (wake up)
Said I need you baby
Oh I need my baby home (wake up)
Bring my baby back to me (wake up)
Oh baby baby baby (wake up)
Oh oh (wake up)

Ain't That Lovin' You Baby
I could ride around the world in an old oxcart
And never let another girl thrill my heart
Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you so?
I could meet a hundred girls and have loads of fun
My huggin' and my kissin' belong to just one
Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you so?
If you gave me nine lives like a tommy cat
I'd give 'em all to you and never take one back
Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you so?
I'm putting on my Sunday suit and Im goin' downtown
But Ill be kissin' your lips before the sun goes down
Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you so?
Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you so?

You Sho Do Treat Me Good, Baby
You sho do treat me good baby
Treat me good mow that I’m gone
I say you sho do treat me good baby
So good now that I’m gone
I remember when I was around baby
You ran me right into the ground
Now I passed away four days ago baby
And now looking from my heavenly home
I see you crying at my formal baby
Crying like life done done you wrong
O girl, you’re just to demn good to me baby
Too, too good now that I’m gone
If’n I was back down there with you baby
You would be kicking- kicking me all over town.
All my friends I see there baby
Partying hardy at my wake
And you won’t touch a lick of liquor baby
Say you suffering a hard heart ack
O you are just to damn good to me baby
To damn good now that I am gone
If’n I had somebody as good as you baby
You know that I never would have gone and die at all.

I Wake Up Crying
I wake up crying
After tossin' and turnin'
And a-yearnin' the whole night long
Pretty baby since you went away
I haven't spent a happy day
I wake up crying
After sobbin' and sighin'
And a-wonderin' just what went wrong
Pretty baby I was good to you
Why'd you go and make me blue
I need your arms to hold me tight
I need your sweet lips to kiss me goodnight
I'm so unhappy on my own
Don't don't leave me sad and lonely
I wake up crying
After tossin' and turnin'
And a-yearnin' the whole night long
Pretty baby please come back to me
Save me from this mesery
Oh baby won'tcha save me from this mesery
Please baby won'tcha save me from this mesery

Your First Baby
THE BABIES FIRST YEAR
YOUR baby's first heart beat.
YOUR baby's first kick.
YOUR baby's first slap.
YOUR baby's first cry.
YOUR baby's first drink from Mommy's breast.
YOUR baby's first diaper change.
YOUR baby's first visitors at home.
YOUR baby's first crib.
YOUR baby's first blanket.
YOUR baby's first sounds.
YOUR baby's first laugh.
YOUR baby's first kiss.
YOUR baby's first word.
YOUR baby's first step.
YOUR baby's first weekend with gma.
YOUR baby's first birthday party.
YOUR baby's first year

Baby's First Journey
Lightly they hold him and lightly they sway him-
Soft as a pillow are somebody's arms.
Down he goes slowly, ever so lowly
Over the rim of the cradle they lay him-
Baby's first journey is free from alarms.
Baby is growing while Mama sings by-lo,
Sturdy and rosy and laughing and fair,
Crowing and growing past every one's knowing,
Out goes the cradle and in comes the 'high-lo,'
Baby's next journey is into this chair.
Crying or cooing or waking or sleeping,
Baby is ever a thing to adore.
Look at him yonder-oh what a wonder,
Who would believe it, the darling is creeping,
Baby's next journey is over the floor.
Sweeter and cuter and brighter and stronger,
Mama can see every day how he's grown.
Shoes are all battered, stockings all tattered,
Oh! but the baby is baby no longer
Look at the fellow-he's walking alone!

Got So Used To Loving You
(ronnie scott/steve wolfe)
Producers for bonnie: david mackay, ronnie scott, steve wolfe
Hey, yeah, yeah
Waking in the early morning
Thinking of you softly
From the way my heart is hurting
You might as well have shot me
Shot me
Falling out of heavens highway
Landing in the ocean
Drowning in a sea of heartache
I swear on my devotion
To you
I got so used to loving you baby
Got so used to having you round me
I got so used to loving you baby
And baby I cant let go
I got so used to loving you baby
Got so used to touching you honey
Got so used to loving you baby
And baby I cant let go
Waking in the early morning
Thinking of your magic
Whyd you have to disappear boy?
Dont you know its tragic
Baby its tragic
I got so used to loving you baby
Got so used to having you round me
Got so used to loving you baby
And baby I cant let go
Oh, Im loving you baby
I got so used to touching you honey
I got so used to loving you baby
And baby I cant let go
Oh, Im loving you baby
I got so used to touching you honey
Oh-oh, Im loving you baby
And baby I cant let go
I got so used to touching you baby
I got so used to loving you honey
I got so used to loving you baby
And baby I cant let go

Not to talk to you would be a crime
Let me put my arms around you
Just wanna use up a little of your time
And I'm going...
Baby baby baby

Baby baby baby
Won't you be my girl?
You're eyes, they're so pretty
The clothes you wear, so fine
Won't you come around to my place
Just wanna use up a little of your time
And I'm going...

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

Down To Earth
Well, I wake up
And Im slowly
A-comin down.
Im just tryin
To get my feet back
On the ground.
I got more
Of an idea
Just exactly
What Im worth.
Baby, baby, I wake up
And Im comin
Down to earth.
Yeah, baby, baby, I wake up

Ever wrong
About so much?
Thats all you get,
Get completely
Out of touch.
And its a very, very, very, very painful thing
When you witness your
Death and your birth.

On the planet,
A-been a long, long, long fall,
But thats
Always just a problem
When you think you know it all.
And its a very, very, very, very, very painful thing
When you witness your own
Death and your birth.
Baby, baby, I wake up, I wake up
And Im comin
Down to earth.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I wake up

Down to earth.

Got in my car and I drove
Down the road,

Only A Baby Can...
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...they undesputable proof, that God is at work.

I WALK INTO THE BEDROOM
AND SEE YOUR LITTLE BEAR
MY EYES THEY FIL WITH TEARS

I THINK BACK ON MEMORIES
ME AND YOU GOT TO SHARE
MY HEART IT ACHES WITH SADNESS

I WONDER WHAT COLOUR EYES YOU HAD

Good To Be Back
Written by pam reswick/steve werfel
Background vocals: natalie cole
Let me look at you, just look at you
Youre a sight for sore eyes, yes you are
If you knew how many nights I spent holding you so tight
Then Id wake up and were still apart
Now youre really near and Im really here
And I can wrap my arms around you, yes I can
This is just like I remember, no I think its even better
Maybe even more than I can stand
Baby, its good to be back, so good to be back
Baby, its good to be back in your arms again
Baby, its good to be back, so good to be back
Honey, its good to be back with you, oh yeah
Well its not the first time weve been apart
But as far as Im concerned its the last
I dont care what we have to do to stay together from now on
But those days away from you are past
cause when I go through the day and I havent seen your face
Seems like nothing that I do feels right
Youre the one I wanna see when I wake up every day
Youre the one I wanna kiss goodnight
Baby, its good to be back, so good to be back
Baby, its good to be back in your arms again (ooh)
Baby, its good to be back, so good to be back
Honey, its good to be back with you
So good, so good, so good, so good, so good with you, baby
So good with you
Why dont you start me up with just one kiss
Thats just one of the things Ive missed
You better kiss me once again til it finally settles in
Well, I think I could get used to this
Baby, its good to be back, so good, so good to be back, real good
Baby, its good to be back in your arms again, I just got to say it
Good to be back, so good to be back
Honey, its good to be back with you
Baby, its good to be back, feels mighty good to be back
Baby, its good to be back with you
Baby, its good to be back, so good, so good to be back
Aw honey, honey its good to be back with you
And its so good to be back, aw sing it girls
Yeah, good to be back, I like the way you sang
Baby, its good to be back in youre arms again
Sang, sang, sang, sang
And its so good to be back...

Ooohhh Baby
Youre the kind of girl that
Everybodys warned me about
Youre the kind of person that
Everybodys here staring at
But now you are a topless dancer
Working out of a bar on times spuare
And everybody wishes you were back down in some corner
Only baby know, you make me go
Ooohhh baby, ooohhh baby, ooohhh baby
Ooohhh-ooohhh-ooohhh
Ooohhh baby, ooohhh baby, ooohhh baby
Ooohhh-ooohhh-ooohhh
Your old man was the best p and e man
Down on the streets
And all the guy in the precinct
Always was watching for him on the beat
But when he ripped off seymour
He was really not a doing so fine
And everything is knots, well except -
- his hands and legs and maybe even mime
He see they just make them strip off, they say
Ooohhh baby, ooohhh baby, ooohhh
Ooohhh baby, ooohhh
Ooohhh baby, ooohhh baby, ooohhh
Hey, baby, ooohhh-ooohhh
Its very funny asking me
Why they keep the lights on down so low
Well, yesterdays chases todays competition
Or didnt you know
And all the fluorescent lighting make so your wrinkles
They dont show
And its very funny the way that
20 bucks an hour cannot go
If you dont make em go, now, now, now
Ooohhh baby, ooohhh baby, ooohhh
Ooohhh baby, ooohhh
Ooohhh baby, ooohhh baby, ooohhh baby
Ooohhh-ooohhh-ooohhh
Everybody wondered bout you when you was seen
In drinking some beer
You got here from ohio and your mother said
You hooked her in the real near
Thats the way it goes now
Ooohhh baby, ooohhh baby, ooohhh baby
Ooohhh-ooohhh-ooohhh
Hey, shake your bones now, mama
Ooohhh baby, ooohhh baby, ah
Hey, ooohhh baby, ooohhh
Walk it, now
(ooohhh baby, ooohhh, ooohhh baby, ooohhh) get down
