And As For Love
and as for love
that i denied one time too many
she left me at the break of day
when i awoke she seemed still spinning in my head
but she was gone, the capsule empty and her body dead
was all she'd left behind without a last adieu
sometimes i wonder if she4d left a hundred years ago
to start anew we need to be strangers from now on
and as for love we need to be strangers from now on
and i remember when she came into my life
it didn't count who she was or what i was like
i never meant to hurt her but she never did
her name was love, her bodies infinite
and now she is gone, the capsule empty and her body dead
sometimes i wonder if she'd left a hundred years ago
to start anew we need to be strangers from now on
and as for love we need to be strangers from now on...

Strangers
(bobby braddock)
Two strangers passing on the sidewalk
Barely brush each others hand
He says Im sorry
She says dont worry
And that is how it all began
A few short days and night together
And its like they were meant to be
Lying there with her he softly whispers
Just think what we were so recently
Strangers, strangers
The world greatest lovers
Last week we were strangers
Two strangers passing in the hallway
Barely touch each others heart
Now theyre pretending
Two shadows blending
But theyre a million miles apart
Soon shell be packing up her suitcase
Theyll be dividing all the blame
They know how they started
Now empty hearted
They dont have a clue how they became
Strangers, strangers
The world greatest lovers
And now they are strangers
The worlds greatest lovers
Have turned into strangers
Strangers, strangers

Strangers no longer for My Lady Irene
A stranger is a friend you have not met
Do not be too quick to forget,
that you and I were strangers too.
Though when we met we quickly knew
this was the start of something new.
We have no reason to regret.
The many times we could have met,
But it was not the right time yet.
The time and place I would meet you
Had been decreed by Fate who knew.
You needed me, I needed you.
Though we were strangers still as yet.
Though not for long once we had met.
We still had heartaches to forget.
You trusted me, I trusted you.
It seemed somehow that we both knew,
that we had been intended to
each help the other to forget.
We had been hurt, betrayed, upset
and bitter memories lingered yet
of partners who had proved untrue.
This was our chance to start anew.
I was quite sure and so were you.
This was what we were meant to get.
We were alone before we met
Quite certain that we not get
another love who would be true.
But we were forced to change our view
when you found me and I found you.
Life is as good as it can get

We Might As Well Be Strangers
I don't know your face no more
Or feel your touch that I adore
I don't know your face no more
It's just a place I'm looking for
We might as well be strangers in another town
We might as well be living in a different world
We might as well, we might as well, we might as well
I don't know your thoughts these days
We're strangers in an empty space
I don't understand your heart
It's easier to be apart
We might as well be strangers in another town
We might as well be living in another time
We might as well, we might as well, we might as well
Be strangers
Be strangers
For all I know of you now
For all I know of you now
For all I know of you now
For all I know

Mementoes From Passing Lives
Little time capsules lie hidden,
beneath the turmoil of passing life.
Tiny mementoes laid down,
by strangers that passed this way.
Pieces of life from years gone by.
An empty cigarette packet,
someone enjoyed the contents,
But when?
The question remains unanswered.
Nuts, bolts, washers and screws.
These mementoes suggest something,
and another question.
Standing here I look around me,
remembering my time here,
and wondering what mementoes,
my life has left for strangers,
in the future years.
Again another question,
But not one I care to answer.

Strangers Again
(stewart, cregan, savigar)
Here we go babe putting each other down
I dont know how long this love will last
If we keep kicking it around
We threaten each other with leaving
Neither one of us giving in
Were walking on thin ice baby
I dont wanna see it end
And oh Ive never let any woman this close to me
Dont let me down
Put in some trust dont give up on us
Strangers again
We should talk it over
Strangers again
Lets make love and say were sorry
Strangers again
We both need a shoulder, dont let it go
I cant stand the silence
When we dont get along
Both of us believing
That the other must surely be wrong
So strange how two people
Can be so very cruel
Both of us should know by now
Neither ones the other ones fool
And oh Ive never let any woman this close to me
So dont let me down
Put in some trust dont give up on us
Strangers again
We should talk it over
Strangers again
Lets make love and say were sorry
Strangers again
We both need a shoulder, dont let it go
Oh Ive never let any woman this close to me
So dont let me down
Why dont ya put in some trust
Dont give up on us
Strangers again
We should talk it over
Strangers again
Lets make love and say were sorry
Strangers again
We both need a shoulder, dont let it go
Strangers again
I dont know what happened
Strangers again
Yesterday was full of passion
Strangers again
We both need a shoulder, dont let it go

Dont Go To Strangers
Build your dreams
To the stars above
But when you need someone true to love
Dont go to strangers
Lover come to me
Play with fire
Get your fingers burned
But when theres no place left to turn
Dont go to strangers
Lover come to me
You give the call to follow your heart
Youll follow your heart, I know
Ive been around
Im an old hand
Ill understand if you have to go
So make your mark
For your friends to see
But when you need more than company
Dont go to strangers
Lover come to me
Dont go to strangers
Lover come to me

Early Works - Mementos From Passing Lives
Little time capsules lie hidden
beneath the turmoil of passing lives.
Tiny mementos laid down
by strangers who passed this way
at some time in distant years.
An empty cigarette packet
someone enjoyed the contents,
but when the question remains unanswered.
Nuts, bolts, washers and screws
these mementos suggest something
and also another question.
Standing here, I stare around me
remembering my time here
and wondering what mementos
my life has left for strangers
in the future years.
Again another question

Strangers
Everything you do says you're leaving me
Everything you say shows you don't believe in me
How was I supposed to know this was gonna hurt a soul
You and I are strangers in our home
You and I are strangers in our home
Everything I feel proves there's nothing left in me
Everything I hear takes away the breath in me
How was I supposed to know this was gonna hurt a soul
You and I are strangers in our home
You and I are strangers in our home

Once Upon A Time
This love has two stories
One yours and one sublime
This love has two beginnings
One mine and one unkind
This love has one pretender
This love is to remember
This love had two stories
Must end with once upon a time
There were two strangers
And in time, the strangers met
And fell in love with time
In oh such danger
And time, does not forget
In the meantime,
That's the way it goes.
Meanwhile, once upon a time
In the meantime, meanwhile
This love has two meanings
One sure and one to find
This love has true feelings
One yearning, one is blind
This love should not surrender
This love is to remember
This love with two meanings
Must end with once upon a time
There were two strangers
And in time, the strangers met
And fell in love with time
In oh such danger
And time, does not forget
In the meantime,
that's the way it goes.
Meanwhile, once upon a time
In the meantime, meanwhile,
That's the way it goes.
Once upon a time
In the meantime
This love has one pretender
This love will always remember
This love with two stories
Must end with once upon a time
There were two strangers
And in time, the strangers met
And fell in love with time
In oh such danger
And time, does not forget
In the meantime,
That's the way it goes.
Meanwhile, once upon a time
This love had one pretender
That's the way it goes
This love will always be mine
This love was once upon a time
This love had one pretender
That's the way it goes
That's the way it has to be
This love will always be mine
Always you, always me
This love had one pretender
That's the way it goes
The way its gotta be

Strangers In The Night
Strangers in the night exchanging glances
Wond'ring in the night
What were the chances we'd be sharing love
Before the night was through.
Something in your eyes was so inviting,
Something in you smile was so exciting,
Something in my heart,
Told me I must have you.
Strangers in the night, two lonely people
We were strangers in the night
Up to the moment
When we said our first hello.
Little did we know
Love was just a glance away,
A warm embracing dance away and
Ever since that night we've been together.
Lovers at first sight, in love forever.
It turned out so right,
For strangers in the night.
Love was just a glance away,
A warm embracing dance away and
Ever since that night we've been together.
Lovers at first sight, in love forever.
It turned out so right,
For strangers in the night.
For strangers in the night
For strangers in the night

Along The Way
Along the way, we met
as passing strangers there,
and then we met again,
now the strangers
became passing friends.
The more we meet along the way,
the more we could see
the love within one another’s eyes
that was meant to be.
From strangers to friends,
to lovers to remain
together forever more,
never forgetting
how we met along the way.

Perfect Strangers
Everytime we meet
My heart skips a beat
Seems were perfect strangers
I cant understand
Whats inside of man
That makes us perfect strangers
Through all this time so lonely
All the people with nobody
With lifes misunderstanding
Feel Ive known you all my life
Theres something quite familiar in your eyes
A soul is calling
Do you ever wonder why?
Everytime we meet
A sympathetic beat
In the heart of strangers
Here the love it calls
But you dont know me at all
Seems were perfect strangers
Just like perfect strangers
Ever looked up to the sky
On a night so melancholy
See the angry world around you
Really need someone to talk to
Doesnt mind you feel so crazy
Wheres the understanding stranger
Or the understanding lover
I know therell come a day
When peace will touch the heart of you
Until then I will say
Open up your eyes
Youre not hypnotised
Were not really strangers
You dont understand
That in the heart of love
Theres no perfect strangers
Everytime we meet
A sympathetic beat
In the heart of strangers
Repeats...

The Boys And Girls I Went To School With
The boys and girls I went to school with from me now far away
And even some of them not living now where the dead are they lay
And in distant flights of fancy I fancy I see them yet
And them I still remember and them I won't forget.
The boys and girls I went to school with the years have left them slow
And were I to meet them on the street perhaps them I''d not know
For the years they leave us looking older and there''s no turning back the hands of time
And those I went to school with like me now long past their prime.
Many of the boys and girls I went to school with live distant from Millstreet
And we well might be strangers now if by chance we did meet
In my mental pictures of them they have not aged a day
But reality is different and 'tis always been that way.
Many of the boys and girls I went to school with in Millstreet our Home -town
Have left that green old countryside where Finnow babbles down
For to join with the great Blackwater on it''s journey to the sea
Still their innocence and youthfulness will always be with me.
The changes keep on happening and nothing seems to last
Still we cling on to our memories and we can''t deny our past
And though we may now be strangers were we to meet again
The boys and girls I went to school with young in my thoughts remain.

Godfrey
When sin concieves, it leads to dead;
But shall a child be born to him who is hundred years old? !
Then think about what you see around you.
Warmest wet,
Of the area that men do go at last;
But do not judge a matter from only one source.
Size, length and width;
And like the strangers in the land of love so,
Do not endanger somebody's life oh Godfrey.

Strangers (Prelude to Valentine’s Day)
There’s something in your heart
that’s keeping us apart.
I guess it’s because we’re strangers.
This coming Valentines day
would be the perfect way
for us to be more, than strangers.
I’ll write enchanting words of romance
in the hope there will be a chance,
that we’ll no longer be, strangers.
We can get to know each other
and who knows, later maybe lovers,
and forget that we were once strangers.

Love Is Truth
Love is truth, love is whole, if you love me, I give you my soul.
If it isn't meant to be, don't hesitate, you must live free, leave it to fate.
If you're seeking love, don't look straight, look beyond and above, you will find someone great.
I'm unable to understand, why I am so content, and at the same time, completely tormented.
When you are not near me, or in my arms, I start to feel pain, and become alarmed.
Are you alright, are you in pain, all I can think about, is keeping you from harms way.
There is so much left to learn, but so little left to do, You have fixed my heart, but all along you knew.
That I was in pain, I have to choose, as I have everything to gain, and nothing to lose.
You were all I ever wished, when I was thinking about you. I meant every word, when I said that love is true.
It's just not the same, without you in my arms, I keep repeating your name, and think of how you have been harmed.
If I could erase my past, and begin anew, there would nothing I would change, as I just wanted to be with you.
This can't be it, when you say that you love me, and I felt hurt, because I couldn't see.
That you did love me, you meant it all, You were everything to me, and now I can hear your call.
My heart is mending slowly, all thanks to you, I cannot thank you enough, for your love through and through.
I love the way you laugh, and your beautiful eyes, I love the way you smile, as calming as the skies.
I care about you so, and new beginnings start here, I can't thank you enough, you have me now dear.

Separate Ways
(words & music by west - mainegra)
I see a change is coming to our lives
Its not the same as it used to be
And its not too late to realise our mistake
Were just not right for each other
Love has slipped away left us only friends
We almost seem like strangers
All thats left between us are the memories we shared
Of times we thought we cared for each other
Theres nothing left to do but go our separate ways
And pick up all the pieces left behind us
And maybe someday, somewhere along the way
Another love will find us
Some day when shes older, maybe she will understand
Why her mom and dad are not together
The tears that she will cry when I have to say goodbye
Will tear at my heart forever
Theres nothing left to do but go our separate ways
And pick up all the pieces left behind us
And maybe someday, somewhere along the way
Another love will find us

It Was I
Written by gary paxton.
Youre telling everybody Im the one
To blame for all the wrong that you have done.
The day that you walked out and left, didnt say goodbye.
Who was left alone to sit and cry?
It was i; it was i.
I gave you all the love I ever had,
The only things I got from you were bad,
The times you didnt show up,
The times you didnt call,
Who was left alone with it all?
It was i; it was i.
My love was always yours to treasure and to hold.
If you let a love go by, it will soon grow cold.
Temptation is too strong to hide,
Are you really satisfied
With our love the way it is?
Let me tell you how it is.
Please come back and try to start anew
I know that its the proper thing to do,
Darlin? if we make up
I know well never break up.
Then I know its only me and you,
Me and you.

Dont Talk To Strangers
When you were just a young girl and still in school
How come you never learned the golden rule
Dont talk to strange men, dont be a fool
Im hearing stories, I dont think thats cool
Why dont you tell me, someone is loving you
Cause youre my girl, some say its no longer true
Youre seeing some slick continental dude
Im begging you, please
Dont talk to strangers, baby dont you talk
Dont talk to strangers, you know hell only use you up
Dont talk, dont talk, dont talk,
Dont talk, dont talk to him
Nobody, talk, nobody, ever told you, dont talk
Now tell me, hows life in the big city
I hear the competitions tough, baby thats a pity
And every mans an actor, every girl is pretty
I dont like whats getting back to me
Now whos this, don juan Ive been hearing of
Love hurts when only ones in love
Did you fall at first sight or did you need a shove
Im begging you, please
Dont talk to strangers, baby dont you talk
Dont talk to strangers, you know hell only use you up
Dont talk, dont talk, dont talk,
Dont talk, dont talk to him
Nobody, talk, nobody ever told you, dont talk
*fais lamour avec moi (*make love to me)
Whats he saying baby
*viens dormir, mon amour (*come to sleep my love)
I asked you not to talk to him
*je taime donne moi ton coeur ce soir (*i like you to give me your heart this night)
Im begging you
Dont talk to strangers, baby dont you talk
Dont talk to strangers, you know hell only use you up
Dont talk, dont talk, dont talk,
Dont talk, dont talk to him
Nobody, talk, nobody ever told you, dont talk
Dont talk to strangers, baby dont you talk
Dont talk to strangers, you know hell only use you up
Dont talk to strangers, baby dont you,
Baby dont you talk,
