Caroline says
Are you really sure that you know me
I never met you before, can I trust you
But shes never cautious, no, never, will she ever learn
Wil she always send her dreams and poems to imaginary people
And shes tough, yes, real tough
Standing right in front of the revelation
All of the big city lights may shine on her eternally
And carolines eyes show feelings not from this world
And if some one asks her, where do you come from
She thinks for a while before she answers
I dont know, I really dont know
And she says, theres no destination on this spiral highway
I dont know, I really dont know
And she says, I can give you names but I can never give you answers
And she says, listen to the music of your soul
Follow where its telling you to go, follow in the footsteps of your soul
Listen to the music, dont you know, itll lead you where you what to be
Its playing there for you and me
Caroline says while looking at the polaroid in her hands
Isnt it strange to remember
And when shes out, she never locks the door, she is always like that
She could never ever cope with the real life of the ordinary people
And she says, hey, listen to this, I should be leaving here tomorrow
Its so cold in this city and theres not enough money in the streets
And carolines eyes show feelings not from this world
And if some one asks her
Where do you go to, she thinks for a while before she answers
I dont know...

Dont Ask Me
I got ideas but I dont know it all
And when I speak you know my voice is small
And when Im walking down the street
I never smile at folks I meet
Cause I know they wont smile at me
Now ask yourself why this should be
But if you want the answers
If you want the answers
Dont ask me
If you want the answers
If you want the answers
Dont ask me
I got feelings but they dont count for much
And I shake my fist but I got no power as such
But if I tell you what I see
Dont throw my words right back at me
Cause I cant shout and I cant moan
Cause I got problems of my own
But if you want the answers
If you want the answers
Dont ask me
If you want the answers
If you want the answers
Dont ask me
Someday soon I gotta learn enough
To justify my actions
Until then I want you all to try
To share my gut reactions
Gut reactions
But if you want the answers
If you want the answers
Dont ask me
If you want the answers
If you want the answers
Dont ask me

Dont Give That Girl A Gun
Shes got a case against me
A jury of my peers
And the rage of the righteous
Screaming in her ears
Im not dignified anymore
I cant say I didnt call
I say I love you
She dont hear me anymore
And dont give that girl a gun
I said now dont give that girl a gun
Shes already won/one
Shes already won/one
I made a bad connection
She says I went astray
I jumped ship abandoned my post
I didnt think I lost my way
But oh how the mighty fall
I saw her crack a smile
I dont got a chance for redemption
She dont believe in the miracle mile
So take the first shot baby itll be real clean
Im your girl strong and mean
Second shot baby itll be real cool
Im your fool
I said now dont give that girl a gun
I said now dont give that girl a gun
(give that girl a gun)
Shes already won/one
Shes already won/one
Yeah
I said hold me closer
Cause somethings happening
Why cant we come together
She said I doubt we ever will
Ever will again
I said dont give that girl a gun
I said now dont give that girl a gun
Shes already won/one
Shes already won/one
I said now dont give that girl a gun
I said now dont give that girl a gun

Already won/one
Shes already won/one

Shes Not The Same
Ah the living aint easy
With all of these false emotions
Too little devotion
And Im tired of just
Being alone, shes just not the same
Shes a son of a gun, shes a red hot flame
She lights the sun and conjures up the rain
Like any good gambler
I was chained to a wishing well
I keep wishing in vain
But listen friend
Dont look now, shes right behind you
Looking for someone to take her inside
It thrills her so, its a rainbow ride
Im a little uneasy
And there aint much pride inside me
She dont know how it hurts
And Im telling you
Its too late now, shes not the same
Shes a red hot kid, shes a crying shame
Anytime is the right time
To get on with a new tomorrow
But I could never let yesterday go
And when the falling rain makes me sad
She comes to me in the dreams Ive had
In the morning light, in the dead of night
Ah the lovin aint easy
An I let it get the best of me
She dont know how it hurts
And Im telling you
Its too late now, she dont talk no more
She dont make me feel like she did before
Theres too much wait and too much give and take
Im a little uneasy
And there aint much pride inside me
She dont know how it hurts
And Im telling you its
Too late now, shes just not the same
Its too late now, shes not the same
Its too late now, shes not the same

Dont Look Away
Writers: leo sayer & tom snow
Well, she talks in her sleep
About the men that she meets
With so much passion
In the morning I ask
But she takes me to task
Says Im overreacting
Shes a woman, playing a womans game
When I ask her, she looks at me like Im strange
I say, dont look away, babe
When Im talking to you
Dont look away, babe
Itll do you no good
Im into your game, babe
I been listening to you
Dont look away babe
Dont look away, oh no
Well, she sits on the phone
Like shes here on her own
Making these calls to no one
Now she slides out a ten
Says shes seeing a friend
Shes got so much going on
Shes a woman, playing a womans game
When I ask her
She looks at me like Im strange
I say, dont look away, babe
When Im talking to you
Dont look away, babe
Itll do you no good
Im into your game, babe
I been listening to you
Dont look away babe
Dont look away, oh no
Well, I follow her down to some part of town
Where weve never been before
Theres a car in the drive, and a man sits inside
I gotta stop her, before she gets in
Shes a woman, playing a womans game
When I ask her
She looks at me like Im insane
I say, dont look away, babe
When Im talking to you
Dont look away, babe
Itll do you no good
Im into your game, babe
I been listening to you
Dont look away babe
Dont look away, oh no

A Really Good Time
(ferry)
Youre heard enough
Of the blues and stuff
Youre pretty swell now
cause youre pretty tough
But I dont have to tell you
How hard it can be to get by
You never bothered
About anyone else
Youre well educated
With no common sense
But love - thats one thing
You really need to get by
All your troubles
Come from yourself
Nobody hurts you
- they dont care
Just as long as you show them
A really good time
All the things
You used to do
A trip to the movies
A drink or two
They dont satisfy you
They dont tell you anything new
You know I dont talk much
Except to myself
cause ive not much to say
And theres nobody else
Whos ready and willing
And able to know me - I guess
Listen to me
Im not finished yet
Theres something to tell you
That I cant forget
Just have a really good time
Theres a girl
I used to know
Her face is her fortune
Shes got a heart of gold
She never goes out much
But boy - when she does
Then you know
Shes got no money
Well, maybe a dime
But she knows what shes worth
And thats reason why
Shes gonna make it
Shes got what it takes
Youll appreciate that
Shes probably late
But I know
And you know
We all know
Shell have a really good time

Shes Too Tough
My girl, everybody says shes alright
And I know that shes more than alright
Well, shes a hard headed woman
Got a mean attitude
I may have bitten off more than I can chew
I get a little light headed
At her altitude
But she goes one step higher
If Im going to spend the rest of my life
With a woman like that, I better think twice
Shes too tough
I said shes too tough
From the moment she wakes up
Her mind is made up
Shes too tough, shes too tough
My girl, shes got a way about her
I know I can never live without her
Shes a hard headed woman
So hard to please
Shes got her own way of dealing with me
Im out on a limb, Im a cat up a tree
But this trees on fire
I want that woman for the rest of my life
I dont know if Im up to payin the price
Shes too tough
I said that shes too tough
From the moment she wakes up
Her mind is made up
Shes too tough
You hear shes too tough
Well I dont believe
Ill ever leave her
Shes too tough, shes too tough
Well if Im gonna spend the rest of my life
With a woman like her, Id better think twice
Shes too tough
I said shes too tough
From the moment she wakes up
Her mind is made up
Shes too tough, thats right
Shes too tough
If I do what Im told
Shes gooder than gold to me
Shes too tough
I said shes too tough
When push comes to shove
This must be love
Shes too tough
Yeah shes too tough
Well I dont believe
Id ever leave her, never leave her
Shes too tough, shes too tough

This Women
Well she walks like you in so many ways
Its a different look
Its a different time of day
One look in her eyes
How can I make you understand
Shes the one good thing thats happened in so many years
Theres been so many tears
When we lost the dream
And the winter came
And you said goodbye
And I dont want another reason to cry
You be all you wanna be
You got the longest night
Baby, be alone
I share my dream with someone else
I dont wanna talk about her
This women - shes tearing my world apart
This women - dont know what shes doing
This women - touchs me and I lose control
Shes living inside my soul
This women - I dont even know her name
This women - dont know what shes doing
This women goes through me like a hurricane
Falling in love again
To make those long legs mine - is all I care about
Shes got so much to give - I got to be the one
I got to have
Someone to hold
I got to make it with that women
When the nights get hot
And she goes walking by
And the city lights - and the city lights
They make you blind
I go insane
But am I crazy if she feels the same
You believe what you believe
You got the darkest night
Baby , be alone
I take my love to someone else
She was made to measure for me
You be all you wanna be
You got the longest night
Baby , be alone
I share my dream with someone else
I dont wanna talk about her
This women - shes tearing my world apart
This women - dont know what shes doing
This women - touchs me and I lose control
Shes living inside my soul
This women - I dont even know her name
This women - dont know what shes doing
This women goes through me like a hurricane

Dont Listen To Linda
By tommy boyce & bobby hart
Dont listen to linda
She said all those things before
Shes just a pretender,
And though you couldnt love her more
Shell lead you on, and then one day
Shell say youll have to part
Dont listen to linda
Shell only break your heart.
Dont listen to linda
If you want some good advice,
Just try to remember,
She did it once, shell do it twice
Theres more to her little games,
Than your eyes can see,
Dont listen to linda,
Or youll end up like me.
Youll never understand her
All the presents you could hand her,
Could never be enough, oh no,
So, dont underestimate her,
cause sooner or later,
The goings gonna start to get rough.
Dont listen to linda,
Dont believe the things you hear.
Youll end up, contender,
For the loser of the year.
Ive said everything I can
To try and make you see
Dont listen to linda,
Or youll end up like me.

Real Men...
real men...
dont threaten.
real men dont lie.
real men dont take
at the expense of others.
real men dont quit.
real men dont make excuses.
real men dont follow blindly.
real men dont abuse women.
real men are good fathers.
real men live by respect.
real men dont seek violence,
but dont back down.
real men get involved.
real men face their fears,
and their failures.
real men own their mistakes.
real men dont judge.
real men pray with the same hands
they wipe their buts with,
and know it!
real men forgive.
real men love at all costs.
real men stand for what they believe...
what the world needs now
is real men... (and women) !

Life In The City
People sleepin on the sidewalks
On a rainy day
Families livin under freeways
Its the american way
Starvin in the city
While the farm goes to seed
Murder in the home
And crime on the streets.
Dont that trouble you brother?
Dont that trouble you pal?
Dont that trouble you sister?
Well, thats life in the city.
All our old hangouts
Are boarded up and closed
Or being sold to someone
Nobody knows
I got a woman that loves me
And I love her so
Shes all dressed up now
With nowhere to go.
Dont that trouble you brother?
Dont that trouble you pal?
Dont that trouble you sister?
Well, thats life in the city.
Thats life in the city.
Listen to me people
Hear what I have to say
Ever since I was knee high
I rocked my blues away
But people sleepin on the sidewalks
And families in need
Murder in the home
And crime on the streets.
Dont that trouble you brother?
Dont that trouble you pal?
Dont that kill you sister?
Well, thats life in the city.

Excuses
Yo, whats up, this is Ginuwine
And I wanna tell you
It aint no time for excuses with your woman
You be right or you be out, ya heard
Do it right, check this is out
This is my story
Theres a time that comes in a mans life
When is real, want it all, when his mind is right
It could come at any time, morning, noon or night
You would know at the time, nothing more to fight
He might not, and I know cause Ive done the same
You know Im right there with you, dog, but she wont
play the game
She will be done packed your bags, sit em all there
right outside your door
Cause shes tired of the lyin s*** and she aint
takin no more, oh, no she aint
Excuses (Everybody has one)
Excuses (She dont wanna hear them no more, oh)

Excuses (She dont wanna hear no), excuses {She dont}
Excuses (She aint got time for them)
Excuses (So dont fill her mind with them, no)
Excuses (She said take that s*** elsewhere)
Excuses (She dont wanna hear no), excuses {She dont}
Take her out, hold her hand, let her know youll die
for her
Cause thats your lady, yes, thats your baby
Shes a seed, feed her well, watch her blossom out
And only the real players out there can dig what Im
talkin bout
Be that man, be that one, do the things she loves
Pay attention, should I mention how it all was once
You broke your neck just to get her, dont you pull
back now
Cause sooner or later shell be gone, what youre

Excuses (Everybody has one)
Excuses (But she dont wanna hear them no more, oh, no

She dont want no diamond ring
She dont want to drive my car
She wont let me go that far
She dont like the way I look

She dont like the tales I tell
She dont like the way I smell
But oh the game we play
Shes too good for me
Shes too good for me
Would she prefer it if I washed myself more often than I do
Would she prefer it if I took her to an opera or two
I could distort myself to be the perfect man
She might prefer me as I am
She dont want to meet my folks
She dont want to hear my jokes
She dont want to fix my tie
She dont even want to try
She dont like the books I read
She dont like the way I feed
She dont want to save my life
She dont want to be my wife

Take Me Home
Take that look of worry
Im an ordinary man
They dont tell me nothing
So I find out what I can
Theres a fire thats been burning
Right outside my door
I cant see but I feel it
And it helps to keep me warm
So i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
Seems so long Ive been waiting
Still dont know what for
Theres no point escaping
I dont worry anymore
I cant come out to find you
I dont like to go outside
They cant turn off my feelings
Like theyre turning off a light
But i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
Oh i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
So take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home, oh lord
Cos Ive been a prisoner all my life
And I can say to you
Take that look of worry, mines an ordinary life
Working when its daylight
And sleeping when its night
Ive got no far horizons
I dont wish upon a star
They dont think that I listen
Oh but I know who they are
And i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
Oh i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
So take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home, oh lord
Well Ive been a prisoner all my life
And I can say to you
But I dont remember

Youre ready for another change

Kill yourself before receiving

Dont Want Your Best Friend
Shes got her independence in a hard fast way
Shes got me chasing shadows with everything I try to say
Some say shes far too quick, some say shes slow to learn
But all I know is she gave me love that left afterburn
And its fire feeds me Im hungry still
So baby listen now, Im at your will
But Im not a flower on your windowsill
Dont want your best friend
Dont need a godsend
Dont want your new trends
I want you
Shes got a silver sabre with a diamond shine
Its not an ego-trip just her frightened way
To keep you blind
Shadow dancing, nowhere fast
You got to meet me half way
Girl if its gonna last
I remember that first night
I dream of it still
I want that feeling and I want that thrill
Ive always loved you and I always will
Take me home

Man In The Street
Im not a happy guy
But Im not always sad
And Im no millionaire
But I dont do so bad
But no matter who you think you are
Theres always someone with a different view
Theres always someone thinks hes got a right
To say whats good for you
So how do you know
That the man in the street dont care
And why dont you care
When the man in the street dont know
Anyway
Im not a clever guy
But Im sure not that dumb
Dont have the inside news
But I know what goes on
And if you put your faith in God above
Or if you watch the skies for superman
Theres always times when you can see the answers
Slip right through their hands
So how do you know
That the man in the street dont care
And why dont you care
When the man in the street dont know
Anyway
So no matter who they think they are
As they tell you who to fight or how to dance
Why dont you give yourself a break
And give us all a chance
cause how do you know
That the man in the street dont care
And why dont you care
When the man in the street dont know

Survivor
This boy hes a midnight driver
High roller and a soul survivor
She tried to send him on his way
He say, hey, I wanna stay
If you dont mind Im hanging around
This girls on the road to nowhere
She wouldnt say but another day there
Its not the role shes decided to play
She say, hey, dont wanna stay
Theres no reason for hanging around
Take me where I wanna go running
Where the sea rushes up to the shore
Its a lonely place but I need the space
Want to let my feelings soar
Help me find the key to my prison
Ive waited long enough to be free
I love you but Im not really living
Its now how I want it to be
Listen, I know what shes like shes just a dreamer
But Ill win in the end Im a schemer
Give her time shell be on the phone
Shes never gonna make it alone
Better leave the door on the latch
Shell soon be hurrying home
Oh mother, it looks like Im in for stormy weather
So Id better get my story together
Got to make it good shes no fool
Ill take her in my arms, Ill be cool
Dont want to get her upset
I wanna make her forget
Take me where I wanna go running
Where the sea rushes up to the shore
Its a lonely place but I need the space
Want to let my feelings soar
Help me find the key to my prison
Ive waited long enough to be free
I love you but Im not really living
Its now how I want it to be
This girls shes a real survivor
She dont believe in the midnight driver
So shes starting a brand new day
She say, hey, dont wanna play
It had to stop, so Im going away
Im going away
Im going away

Dont Let Me Down
(clarke)
The sun is overshadowed by the presence of the moon
Night time has fallen shell be comin home soon
Leave the door wide open, ah, so she wont need a key
Lock it behind you baby draw the blinds so no-one can see
Theres only one thing on my mind
Dont let dont let me down
Dont let dont let me down
My feelings are near the ground
Silence is golden, ah, for me theres just one choice
The music of your laughter, rippling of your voice
The freshness of the evergreen, ah, fades as if too shy
Cant compete with your beauty, couldnt if it tried
Theres only one thing on my mind
Dont let, dont let me down
Dont let, dont let me down
My feelings are near the ground
Lets build something to climb on
Making the show a live one
No need for make-up lets be real
Give all in what your giving
Making life worth living
Being alives how you should feel
Oh and dont let, dont let me down
My feelings are near the ground
Dont want the sun to be shining
Raising his eyebrows at the moon
Saying I told you so she wouldnt show
Well dont speak too soon
I hear her footsteps walking on the outer floor
Well it could be, I dont know, I dont know for sure
Theres only one thing on my mind
Dont let, dont let me down
Dont let, dont let me down
My feelings are near the ground
Come on back, cant live without you
Come on back, (I need you, I need you, I) cant live without you
Come on back, (I want you, I want you, I)cant live without you

Girl Keeps Coming Apart
Shes right peculiar
Shell try and fool ya
But the girl keeps coming apart
Shes so appealing
Right off the ceiling
But the girl keeps coming apart
What did I tell ya
Shell buy and sell ya
cause the girl keeps coming apart
Shes so affected
Im so rejected
And the girl keeps coming apart
Dont, dont, dont, dont let it get me down
Dont let it get me down
Shes just a screamer
A nightmare dreamer
Yeah, the girl keeps coming apart
Shes like a call girl
Loose ends and all girl
But the girl keeps coming apart
White lace and leather
Shes so together
But still the girl keeps coming apart
I feel sedated
Boxed up an crated
cause the girl keeps coming apart
Dont, dont, dont, dont, dont, dont
Dont let it get me down
Dont let it get me down
So there she was
Buns up and kneelin
