Glad To See You
Written by dan peek, 1974
Found on holiday.
Bells ring in in my ear
Voices I hear
Whispering daily to me
Love in your fire
High on a wire
When I know youre near me
God, Im glad to see you
I thought youd left me far away
I wouldnt give much to be you
But I want you to know I feel this way
All over the world
Flags are being unfurled
Waving before the dawning
Im watching the show
The last one to know
Which way that things are going
God, Im glad to know you
I thought youd left me far away
I wouldnt give much to be you
But I want you to know I feel this way
Cars fighting their way
Out of l.a.
On a sunday morning
Im watching the show
The last one to know
Which way that things are going
God, Im glad to see you
I thought youd left me far away
I wouldnt give much to be you
But I want you to know I feel this way
God, Im glad to know you

If Walls Could Talk
(bobby miller)
Well, if things could talk then Im sure youd hear
A lot of things to make you cry my dear
Aint you glad [aint you glad]
Oh, aint you glad [aint you glad]
Aint you glad [glad]
Glad that things dont talk
Now, if shoes could tell where theyve been
When you say youve been visiting a friend
Aint you glad [aint you glad]
He-he-hey, aint you glad [aint you glad]
But aint you glad [glad]
Glad that shoes dont talk
Now, if doors could tell whos turned the knob
When hes away out on his job
If cars could tell whos been inside
And whos been taking you out for a ride
Aint you glad [aint you glad]
Oh, aint you glad [aint you glad]
But aint you glad [glad]
Glad that cars dont talk
In a world of trouble Id be
If things ever told on me
My whole life would be through
cause Im guilty, how about you ?
If things ever talk that way
Aint no telling what they might say
Aint you glad [aint you glad]
Oh, aint you glad [aint you glad]
Aint you glad [glad]
Glad that things dont talk

The Nerve
Im glad I had the nerve to talk to you that day
I could just have easily have let you get away
In that crowded airport, far from my hometown
If I had lost my courage then, you wouldnt be around
Im glad I had the nerve.
And Im glad he had the nerve to get down on his knees
And say I bought this ring for you, wont you wear it please?
My daddy sure touched somethin in my mommas heart somehow
If he hadnt, I sure wouldnt be here with you now
Im glad he had the nerve.
Or I never wouldve lived like this
Or learned like this
Or laughed like this
Or loved like this
Im glad he had the nerve to sail across the sea
My great grand-daddys great grandpa in 1833
He met an indian maiden in the smoky mountain mist
If they hadnt crossed that line, I would not exist
Im glad they had the nerve.
And Im glad he had the nerve, while staring into space
To give this universe a time and a place
With one tiny atom or an adam and an eve
However you look at it, whatever you believe
Im glad he had the nerve.
Or we never wouldve live like this
Or learned like this
Or laughed like this
Or loved like this
Thank God he had the nerve.
And Im glad I had the nerve to talk to you that day

Creepin Up On You
Darren hayes / rick nowels
Creepin up on you is the wrong thing to do I found your address got your phone
Number too visit all the stores where you buy all your clothes been to secret
Places you think nobody knows
If I have to breathe without you nobody should...... I need to be around you
Watchin you
No one else can love you like I do feel it when Im creepin up on you I know
That it wouldnt be right if I stayed all night just to peek in on you creepin
Up on you..
I been hanging round all the places you haunt spying on your friends to find
Out what you want drinking from the glass that you left on the bar follow you
Around driving home in your car....
Do I have to breathe without you? coz nobody could I need to be around you
Watching you
No one else can love you like I do feel it when Im creepin up on you I know
That it wouldnt be right if I stayed all night just to peek in on you creepin
Up on you..
This must be wrong it cant go on this kind of thing its taking all my sanity
And making a mockery this must be wrong it cant go on so wont somebody free me
From this misery bring my baby closer to me
No one else can love you like I do feel it when Im creepin up on you I know
That it wouldnt be right if I stayed all night just to peek in on you creepin
No one else can love you like I do feel it when Im creepin up on you I know
That it wouldnt be right if I stayed all night just to peek in on you creepin
Up on you.

So Glad
I had laid some mighty plans,
Thought I held them in my hands.
Then my world began to crumble all away.
I tried to build it back again;
I couldnt bear to see it end,
How it hurt to know you wanted it that way.
And Im so glad,
Glad to find the reason,
That Im happy-sad
That youve torn it all away,
And Im so glad,
Though it hurts to know Im leaving
Everything I ever thought that I would be.
Once I held it in my hand.
It was a kingdom made of sand.
But now youve blown it all away.
I cant believe that I can say,
That Im glad.
Long before my plans were made,
I know a master plan was laid,
With a power that superseded my control.
And if that truth could pierce my heart,
I wouldnt wander from the start,
Trying desperately to make it on my own.
And Im so glad,
Glad to find the reason,
That Im happy-sad
That youve torn it all away,
And Im so glad,
Though it hurts to know Im leaving
Everything I ever thought that I would be.
Once I held it in my hand.
It was a kingdom made of sand.
But now youve blown it all away.
I cant believe that I can say,
That Im glad.
So glad.
Oh, Im so glad.
So glad....
Oh, Im so glad....
Yes, Im glad....
So very, very glad....
La la la....
La la la....
La, la la, la la, la la, la la....

When Youre Not Around
You come into my life
And then you go away
You make me feel like a fool
For wanting you to stay
But Im a busy guy
A lot of things to do
But theres a reason why
Some of them just seem to lose their flavor
I feel like death warmed up
I cant taste the coffee in my cup
I feel so low Im underground
Every time youre not around
And if I didnt feel so high
And if I didnt feel so proud
Then I wouldnt cry
I wouldnt feel so down
When youre not around
You come and fill me up
With ecstasy and pain
And then I run on empty
til I see you again
But Ive got things to do
And places I can go
I guess I cant blame you
If some of them just seem to feel like nowhere
No, I dont feel so great
I cant taste the sandwich on my plate
I try to sing but theres no sound
Every time youre not around
And if I didnt feel so high
And if I didnt feel so proud
Then I wouldnt cry
I wouldnt feel so down
When youre not around

Every Picture Tells A Story
(rod stewart / ron wood)
Spent some time feelin inferior
Standing in front of my mirror
Combed my hair in a thousand ways
But I came out looking just the same
Daddy said, son, you better see the world
I wouldnt blame you if you wanted to leave
But remember one thing dont lose your head
To a woman thatll spend your bread
So I got out
Paris was a place you could hide away
If you felt you didnt fit in
French police wouldnt give me no peace
They claimed I was a nasty person
Down along the left bank minding my own
Was knocked down by a human stampede
Got arrested for inciting a peacful riot
When all I wanted was a cup of tea
I was accused
I moved on
Down in rome I wasnt getting enough
Of the things that keeps a young man alive
My body stunk but I kept my funk
At a time when I was right out of luck
Getting desperate indeed I was
Looking like a tourist attraction
Oh my dear I better get out of here
for the vatican dont give no sanction
I wasnt ready for that, no no
I moved right out east yeah!
On the peking ferry I was feeling merry
Sailing on my way back here
I fell in love with a slit eyed lady
By the light of an eastern moon
Shangai lil never used the pill
She claimed that it just aint natural
She took me up on deck and bit my neck
Oh people I was glad I found her
Oh yeah I was glad I found her
I firmly believe that I didnt need anyone but me
I sincerely thought I was so complete
Look how wrong you can be
The women Ive known I wouldnt let tie my shoe
They wouldnt give you the time of day
But the slit eyed lady knocked me off my feet
God I was glad I found her
And if they had the words I could tell to you
To help you on the way down the road
I couldnt quote you no dickens, shelley or keats
cause its all been said before
Make the best out of the bad just laugh it off
You didnt have to come here anyway
So remember, every picture tells a story dont it

The Other Me
I know I was a crazy fool
For treating you the way I did
But something took hold of me
And I acted like a dustbin lid
I didnt give second though
To what the consequence might be
I really wouldnt be surprised
If you were trying to find another me
The other me would rather be the glad one
The other me would rather play the fool
I want to be the kind of me
That doesnt let you down as a rule
I know it doesnt take a lot
To have a little self-control
But every time that I forgot
Well I landed in another hole
But everytime you pull me out
I find it harder not to see
That we can build a better life
If I can try to find the other me
The other me would rather be the glad one
The other me would rather play the fool
I want to be the kind of me
That doesnt let you down as a rule
But if I ever hurt you
Well you know that its not real
Its no easy living by yourself
So imagine how I feel
I wish that I could take it back
Id like to make a different mood
And if you let me try again
Ill have a better attitude
Well I know that one and one make two
And thats what I want us to be
I really would appreciate it
If youd help me find the other me
The other me would rather be the glad one
The other me would rather play the fool
I want to be the kind of me
That doesnt let you down as a rule

First Time
(m&l - weikath)
Will your first time ...
Will it be ...i think of someone like me?
Makes me wonder
I can show you things youd never
Thought youd see
Youre like sunshine
I can feel your heat drying out my brain
Would you feel like...
Like were having fun if I can do the rain?
Have you thought out your dreams...
Do you have some?
Lets see if we can find some more
Give me your tancies of random
I think we can deal with em all
I cant wait forever
Baby open me your door
I just want your loving
If you cannot give me more
I can see you standing there
You know youre worth the try
Let me guide you in my spaceship
And Ill surely make you have a real good time
Dont waste time now
You are soakin wet so fix the things you got
Guess you know how
And when youre down I gotta see your strut
My desire
Can I watch you rock and know
Whitch one to choose?
Im no liar
I could take you down
And you got nothing to do
I dont know any better ocasion
Cant hold back its the end of the day
I dont think youre here for the first time
No problem with me anyway
I cant wait forever
Baby open me your door
I just want your loving
If you cannot give me more
I can see you standing there
You know we have a try
I can feel this night is special
And I surely make you have a real good time

7twenty7
7twenty7 is ready to move
You know she packed her bags
With nothing left to prove
I thought I didnt care
Now Im fallin through
Wouldnt you?
Well, its a long long journey to the other side
Oh Ive been wishin all night I was on that flight
And god, youd better take care of the sweetest eyes
I hear myself swallowin the tears I cry I hear myself swallowin the tears I cry
7twenty7 is up in the air
You know I feel her hands
On me everywhere
I thought I didnt care
Now Im saying a prayer
Hey mister, do you know the way
To salvation square?
Its a long long winter til the birds will sing
Oh Ill be waitin all night for the phone to ring
Im goin up in smoke and phoney magazines
Everything is just pieces of my stupid dreams
Everything is just spieces of my stupid dreams
With the clouds passin by
With the clouds passin by
Its all right
7twenty7 is close to the sky
It carries the world
Between hello and goodbye
Like the monday we met
That disappeared in a breath
Like the sunday she left
Forever smellin of death
Another jet black night, another drink to go
Oh Ill be diving my head in the pure white snow
God, youd better take care of this gold skinned friend
Tell me, will I ever see her again
Tell me, will I ever see her again

I Wish You Wouldnt Say That
I wish you wouldnt say that
I thought Id have to come right over
I thought I made it clear enough
I guess Ill have to make it clearer
Say something to change your mind
Bring me back the way I used to be
If it takes forever thats all right
Say the words that Ive been trying to hear
I wish you didnt tell her
I thought od have to come right over
I thought Id have to make it clearer
Now jimmys coming over
There are places that I wont forget
And I guess Im never going back
Guess its information that I lack
Ive told lies without a hint or regret

Rudy
Rudys on a train to nowhere, halfway down the line
He dont wanna get there, but he needs time
He aint sophisticated, nor well-educated
After all the hours he wasted, still he needs time.
He needs time - he needs time for livin,
He needs time - for someone just to see him.
He aint haid no lovin
For no reason or rhyme
And the whole worlds above him.
Well its not as though hes fat-
No theres more to this than that-
See he tries to play it cool-
Wouldnt be nobody fool.
Rudy thought that all good things comes to those that wait
But recently he could see that it may come too late.
All through your life, all through the years
Nobody loved, nobody cared.
So dim the light, dark are your fears
Try as I might, I cant hold back the tears
How can you live without love, its not fair?
Someone said give but I just didnt dare.
What good advice are you waiting to hear?
Hearings alright for them thats all there
Youd better gain control now
Youd better showem all now
Youd better make or break now
Youd better give and take now
Youll have to push and shove now
Youll have to find some love now
Youd better gain control now.
Now hes just come out the movie.
Numb of all the pain,
Sad but in a while hell soon be
Back on his train...

I remember my first love affair
Somehow or another the whole darn thing went wrong
My mamma had some great advice
So I thought Id put it into words of this song
I can still hear her sayin it
Boy, oh, I see youre sittin out there all alone
Cryin your eyes out cos the woman that you love has gone
Oh, theres gonna be, theres gonna be a whole lot of trouble in your life
Oh, so listen to me get up off your knees cos only the strong survive
Thats what she said, only the strong survive
Only the strong survive,
Oh youve got to be strong, youd better hold on
Dont go all around with your head hung down
Well I wouldnt let that little girl
No, I wouldnt let her know that she made me feel like a clown
Theres a whole lot a girls lookin for a good man like you
Oh but youll never meet em if you give up now and say that your life is through
Yes she said: only the strong survive, only the strong survive,
Youve got to be a man, youve got to take a stand
Only the strong survive, only the strong survive,
Oh, youve got to be strong, youd better hold on
cos only the strong survive
Only the strong survive, only the strong survive,
Well, youve got to be a man, youve got to take a stand

Dont you ever quit
Not for love or money Id do most anything
Just to amuse you
But thers nothing that I woulnt do
Thought that I would ever lose you
When I play the game I cant afford to blow it
Cos I play for keeps youd better know it

Be Glad God Is
Be glad that God is truth and light
Through Christ we have His strength to fight
Be glad we have His gift to pray
That still He calls to those astray
Be glad, that God is not like me
Before He came to set me free
Before my life had seen the change
Where now to self I’m often strange
Be glad that God is not like us
Such trivial things we make a fuss
The food we eat the clothes we wear
But not of that we have to share
Be glad that God is not like you
Too short of sight to share His view
For Heaven's Lord is pure divine
Pouring out love like common wine
Be glad that God is not like they
Who sit puffed up, who waste the day
Who know it all and then some-more
Be glad it’s God who keeps the score
Be glad, that God is not like she
To shake or stir she can’t agree
Though God sends forth His Dove as guide
Heaven or hell she can’t decide
Be glad that God is not like him
Who’s cup has evil to the brim
The devil thought Christ Jesus less
So don’t give Darkness your address
Be glad that God is God indeed
He meets in life our every need
Perfect in love forever true
My God I’m glad that You are You.

The Tin Man
(kenny chesney/stacey slate/david lowe)
Saw a man in the movies that didnt have a heart
How I wish I could give him mine
Then I wouldnt have to feel it breaking all apart
And this emptiness inside would suit me fine
Its times like these
I wish I were a tin man
You could hurt me all you wanted
And Id never even know
Id give anything just to be the tin man
And I wouldnt have a heart and I wouldnt need a soul
I couldnt see your leavin comin
You took me by surprise
Even now it still seems like a dream
But I know I cant be dreamin
cause as I lay down each night
The pain so great that it wont let me sleep
Its times like these
I wish I were a tin man
You could hurt me all you wanted
And Id never even know
Id give anything just to be the tin man
And I wouldnt have a heart and I wouldnt need a soul
Well Id give anything just to be the tin man
And I wouldnt have a heart and I wouldnt miss you so

Careless Heart
(albert hammond, diane warren, roy orbison)
Producer for bonnie: roy bittan
I had somebody, somebody who loved me
Someone so good to me
You were my angel, you were my heaven
But I was too blind to see
I let you slip away, I guess I never knew
I had the world with you
Id be there, still be there in your arms
Chorus:
If not for my careless heart
Youd still be loving me
If not for my careless heart
Youd still be mine
I wouldnt have this hurt inside
L wouldnt have these tears to cry
If not for my careless heart
If not for my careless heart
I had my chances
I took advantage
I took it all too far
So now youre gone and Im all alone
Alone with my lonely heart
I let it fall apart, I didnt care enough
I lost your precious love
Youd be here, still be here in my arms
Chorus:
Bridge:
Id be loving you, Id be holding you
Id be loving you, if not for my
Careless heart
Instrumental:
I wouldnt have this hurt inside
I wouldnt have these tears to cry
