A Different Direction

Once I was asked for just some affection
to lay down beside just to hold and comfort
I said no it was a pretense to get me to let go

Then I was asked didn't I ever want just affection
I said no I wanted love and love was in another direction
your expression of pain and sorrow hurt as you softly said
and what of tomorrow

I walked away glade to get away
and never thought about tomorrow
until today for today is that tomorrow
and oh how just a little affection now
would take away so much sorrow

So now in my pain as I long for affection
I remember when I chose a different direction.

Rolling Through The Hood

Yesterday, I rolled through the hood
And I seen something and it hurt me
Yesterday, I rolled through the hood
And I seen something and it hurt me
You were talking to that woman
Like you could show her something
And I didn't know what to do
Pulled out your pen and paper
And I know it's ya number you gave her
Never thought this bad dream would come true
Yeah
Baby I want you to know
The suburbs to the ghetto
Joy is joy, and pain is pain, pain
One day sooner than you'll know
We'll be living tomorrow
We'll be laughing about today, today
Yesterday, I rolled through the hood
And I seen something and it hurt me
Yesterday, I rolled through the hood
And I seen something and it hurt me
You were talking to your boys
And though ya'll didn't make noise
You tapped 'em and you pointed at this woman
Then she turned around
As if she'd been found
All I know is my heart started jumping
Heyeyey
Baby I want you to know
The suburbs to the ghetto
Joy is joy, and pain is pain, pain
One day sooner than you'll know
We'll be living tomorrow
We'll be laughing about today, today
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
Beautiful baby don't you know you mean the world to me
And we would lose the sky if you don't stay
Did I ever tell you that you were my sunshine
So basically if you leave there is no day
Hey hey
Yesterday, I rolled through the hood
And I seen something and it hurt me
Yesterday, I rolled through the hood
And I seen something and it hurt me
Instead of scoring high in college
They're scoring high in garbage
Not remembering who we are
And not to mention, forgetting who GOD is
Don't you know that you're special?
And GOD will never forget you
The world is yours watch what you do with it
Heyeyey
Baby I want you to know
The suburbs to the ghetto
Joy is joy, and pain is pain, pain
One day sooner than you'll know
We'll be living tomorrow
We'll be laughing about today, today
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow

Tomorrow

Tomorrow it is
Tomorrow we will
See where the roads they lead
Tomorrow's my dream
Tomorrow's the better me
Tomorrow never may be
Looking inside tomorrow's head
Tomorrow pretends to be brain dead
Tomorrow wants me to long for him
I spend today seeing tomorrow's beam
Tomorrow is there
Yesterday's tomorrow is here
Yet tomorrow I seek
My lamp's got enough oil and wick
Tomorrow where are you?
I've seen today but I look out for tomorrow's dew
Not today, I'll take care of that tomorrow
Tomorrow I'm here, tomorrow you're today
From 5years old, I'm 50years old one more day
The hour-glass spins and sands they turn
The clock it ticks, the second-hand warns
Tomorrow is today gone
What have you done? .

Make Tomorrow

Put on the dress in which you were married
Pull down the veil til your eyes are hid
Can you remember where we both came from
Let us do as we did
Look at tomorrow today
Making tomorrow today
Making tomorrow today
Making tomorrow today
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow today
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow today
Put back the photo under your window
Put down the phone that you hold in your hand
Put away these things that stand in between us
Let us be what we can
When it seems
Hopeless
When it seems
Hopeless
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow today
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow today
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow today
What better measure of what you were doing here
Then what you can leave behind
All the children of your children's children
Do you ever think what they're going to find
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow
Where the sacred meet the scared
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow
Where the dreamer's dream is dared
In each of us
A dream can burn like the sun
Let's try it all one more time
To get this lesson learned
Sitting up in a spaceship
Looking down at the earth
You wonder what they all stuggling for
What's it all really worth
Making tomorrow today
Making tomorrow today
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow

Thinking of tomorrow

I didn’t eat food today; as I wanted to wholesomely famish myself; to
devour
the appetizing chunks of pudding; Tomorrow,

I didn’t sleep blissfully today; as I was overwhelmingly excited to
run;
Tomorrow,

I didn’t play mischievously today; as I wanted to reserve every iota of
my
energy to passionately leap; Tomorrow,

I didn’t drink water today; as I wanted to gulp gallons of voluptuous
wine;
Tomorrow,

I didn’t bathe today; as I wanted to drown my persona in flamboyant
waves of
the salty ocean; Tomorrow,

I didn’t see any object today; as I wanted to view the mesmerizing
beauty of
dawn; Tomorrow,

I didn’t move my legs today; as I wanted to dance unrelentingly all
night;
Tomorrow,

I didn’t revolve my fingers today; as I wanted to sketch intricate
landscapes
with their towering summits in the clouds; Tomorrow,

I didn’t study one bit today; as I wanted to read through volumes of
mystical
tales; Tomorrow,
I didn’t go out today; as I wanted to uninhibitedly explore through the
wilderness; Tomorrow,

I didn’t see the time today; as I wanted to scrupulously count every
unleashing minute tomorrow,

I didn’t smell the air today; as I wanted to inundate my nostrils with
the
enchanting perfume of lotus; Tomorrow,

I didn’t speak today; as I wanted to scream hysterically for hours on
the
trot; Tomorrow,

I didn’t reside in the house today; as I wanted to live the entire
evening in
the magnificent castle; Tomorrow,

I didn’t sweat today; as I wanted to bask under sizzling rays of the
sun; let
moisture dribble profusely from all pores of my body; Tomorrow,

I didn’t sneeze today; as I wanted to thunderously blow my nostrils;
emptying
them in entirety; Tomorrow,

I didn’t smile today; as I wanted to sway in sheer rhapsody and
jubilation;
tomorrow,

I didn’t cry today; as I wanted to pour out rivers of heart breaking
emotion;
Tomorrow,

And I didn’t love today; fervently anticipating to be incarcerated in
the
immortal embrace of my dream girl; 'THINKING OF TOMORROW'.

Love An Affection

(coverdale/moody)
Well, I love the way you walk
With your skin tight stride,
You got my eyes wide open
An my loose tongue tied
A french kiss mouth
An a smile so bad,
Youre the finest woman
That I ever had
So its alright,
Do anything you wanna do
Nobody had to tell you
How to make a mans heart bleed,
Your mama always knew
You was born to succeed
I can see the honey juice
Dripping off your lips,
Girl, you got the midas touch
Its in your fingertips
But its alright,
Do anything you wanna do
cos after midnight, Ill be alright
Riding on cupids train,
You give me loving, like Ive never had before,
Im back in the saddle again
So give me love an affection,
Love an affection
A little love an affection
Sure nuff goes a long, long way
You put your arms around me
Like a circle round the sun,
Your eyes turn on the hypnotising game
You play for fun
Im caught in your spell
Just like the spider an the fly,
An I cant break away from you
No matter how I try
But, its alright,
Do anything you wanna do
cos after midnight, Ill be alright
Riding on cupids train,
You give me loving, like Ive never had before,
Im back in the saddle again
So give me love an affection,
Love an affection
A little love an affection
Sure nuff goes a long, long way
cos after midnight, Ill be alright
Riding on cupids train,
You give me loving, like Ive never had before,
Im back in the saddle again
So give me love an affection,
Love an affection
A little love an affection
Sure nuff goes a long, long way
Love an affection
A little love an affection
Baby, baby, love an affection
Sure nuff goes a long, long way
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
I need love an affection,
Sure nuff goes a long, long way...

Put It Off Until Tomorrow (feat. Dolly Parton)

[ Dolly Parton & Kris Kristofferson ]
Put it off until tomorrow oh oh you've hurt me enough today
You've hurt me enough today
You say our love is over that you have found another
You say you're going away
But leave me tomorrow oh oh you've hurt me enough today
You've hurt me enough today I can't believe the words you say
I must accept the fact you won't be coming back
So please stay just one more day loneliness isn't far away
Put it off until tomorrow oh oh you've hurt me enough today
Put it off until tomorrow oh oh you've hurt me enough today

For I Won't Be Around Tomorrow!

Take my body today
for my soul leaves it tomorrow

take my joys away right now
for tomorrow i shall drown in my sorrow

see the rainbow today
thru my eyes
see the simmering light on the sea
look look! at the setting sun
for tomorrow i wont show

feel my love today
make my passion yours
for tomorrow i will be
just a lifeless corpse

hear my hearbeat today
hear my sigh now
for tomorrow
i take the big bow

touch my chin tousle my hair
make me your today
for tomorrow is
another day

and when i am not around
lost never to be found
you shall miss me a lot
and grieve in my memories

i can save you from the miseries today
come come be mine now
let the nature hear our sound
together finally once and last

do it now do it here
before death has its shadow cast

dance with me today
sing with me now
lets forget the why when and how

for tomorrow when your feet fail you
i wont be around to hold you

for tomorrow i wont be around

Just Today?

Just today, can I dream a little?
Just today, can we pretend we are in love?
Just today, can I wish a little?
Just today, can my wish come true?

And you write, and you dream
And every time you talk, I wish it was me
But you think, you think for her
And I don't kno her but she is really pretty for sure
And her smile perfect it must be,
You see it once, and more u want to see
And her presence,
Is her presence more fun than mine?
Do u call her your sunshine?

And trust me, I really wish for you
I wish, she will fall in love with you too
Just not today, but starting tomorrow
because tomorrow-
Tomorrow I will stop wishing & dreaming,
Tomorrow I will go back to being myself,
Tomorrow I will take it back, all this pain
Tomorrow we will go back to being strangers again!
But just today,
Can we be more than what we were?
Just today can I be more than her?

Take Me To Tomorrow

This song was first released on the take me to tomorrow album. it is the only album it has been released on.
Hey everybody, tell me how do you feel
Are you satisfied with your life
Do you think its real
Tell me how is your head
What are your dreams
Do you have any plans
Do you have any schemes
Do you care about - about anybody
Id like to know
Is the answer no
Take me to tomorrow
Take me there today
Ive had my fill of sorrow and living this way
Take me to tomorrow
Thats where Id like to be
The day after tomorrow is waiting for me
Hey everybody, whats on your mind
Do you think theres nowhere else to go
Theres nothing left to find
Are you happy where you are
Do you have anything to share
Do you think youre going to waste your life
Spending it there
Would you like to find a way out
Do think its worth a try
Id like to know
Is the answer no well maybe so
Take me to tomorrow
Take me there today
Ive had my fill of sorrow and living this way
Take me to tomorrow
Thats where Id like to be
The day after tomorrow is waiting for me
Take me to tomorrow
Take me there today
Ive had my fill of sorrow and living your way
Take me to tomorrow
Thats where Id like to be
The day after tomorrow is waiting
The day after tomorrow is waiting
The day after tomorrow is waiting for me

Not today, not tomorrow

I may want to strangle you down
I may want to hit you hard 
But not today, not also tomorrow

I may be tempted to break the promise
I could give no damn for all the roses
But not today, not also tomorrow

I may need to bleed out my heart
I may cry out my desperate objection
But not today, not also tomorrow

I could take the short cut way
I could give up the wrong thing
But not today, not also tomorrow

I could blame all mighty god
I could run away and hide
But not today, not also tomorrow

I could be the cold blooded woman
I could be blind for all the reason
But not today, not also tomorrow

I may have to release my anger
I may not have to hold it anymore
But not today, not also tomorrow

I could just walk away
I could leave to you all 
But not today, not also tomorrow

I may beat some senses on you
I may challenge your stubborn view
But not today, not also tomorrow

Justine

You keep your pretty girls
Chained inside the dungeon
And diamonds and pearls
You keep them a'coming
Give them all of your affection

You keep your naughty boys
Locked inside the kitchen
And when they make a noise
A swish of your hand keeps them
Screaming out for your affection

I don't know the why's or wherefores
I don't what's wrong or right
I just know at night
You give them all of your affection

You keep your servants down
Swinging from the gallows
And when they come round
Oh you smile and you say hello
Give them all of your affection
You give them all of your affection
You give them all of your affection

Oh, Sister

Oh, sister, when I come to lie in your arms
You should not treat me like a stranger.
Our father would not like the way that you act
And you must realize the danger.
Oh, sister, am I not a brother to you
And one deserving of affection?
And is our purpose not the same on this earth,
To love and follow
His direction?
We grew up together
From the cradle to the grave
We died and were reborn
And then mysteriously saved.
Oh, sister, when I come to knock on your door,
Dont turn away, youll create sorrow.
Time is an ocean but it ends at the shore
You may not see me tomorrow.

Today Will Be Yesterday

Yesterday was surely tomorrow one day
Definitely today will be yesterday tomorrow
One day hopefully tomorrow will be today

This sorrow and pain will be killed
and pushed into the past tomorrow
this defeat and despair will vanished
into the past
hopefully one day the better future
will be my present

Tomorrow Always Comes

tomorrow always comes.
the sun is confident. always tomorrow
comes with all the usual baggages.
bringing a back pack of your past,
some bags of your future still
bound with the strings of its secrets.

tomorrow always comes. do not deny this
fact, that it always comes with the
people you love and so with all the
people you hurt, and who in turn hurt
you in some ways. It comes with hammers
and nails and ladders and chairs.
Tomorrow always comes and so
do not just stand there and look dumb
and stare and think that today is the
end of your world. The moon knows.
And so are the stars that tomorrow
always comes with baggages.

Help yourself. Face them. Embrace
the day. Love the people who love you.

Love too those that do not love you.
Love them. Tomorrow always comes and
who knows that like caterpillars tomorrow
they become these beautiful butterflies
that now seek the comfort of your loving hands.

Believe me. Tomorrow always comes.
Have hope. Relax. And be confident.
Like the sun, the river, the sea. They
all know that tomorrow always comes.

Be happy then. Promise you. Tomorrow comes.

Tomorrow Is Here

Some would dare to say that there is no tomorrow.
As long as we are alive, there will be another day
To dream, imagine, hope and wipe away our sorrow.
Make the best of every day is the only way
To deal with this extraordinary concept.

Few would candidly accept
That tomorrow is just another day
To giggle, laugh, work, pray and play.
Tomorrow is here, tomorrow is today;
Make the best of it without going astray.

The flowers that you enjoy have a future.
Tomorrow is today. Mother Nature
Will always be here, in spite of the constant changes;
Seasons come and go. We come and go like the seasons,
Which come and go like tomorrow.

Tomorrow is here, plan well today
To alleviate the pains and diminish the worries.
Doomsday is coming for all of us, we can only delay
Its arrival and water down the surprises.
Tomorrow is here, it is just another day.

Baby Its Love

(anna gaye/marvin gaye/charles laskey)
I should run away boy
But Im satisfied
Its your way of loving
Thats filling my desires
Baby when youre gone
I wonder why you turn me on
Ooh, you must be the only man for me
cause youre the only one I see
Its love, ooh baby its love
Baby its love makes me weep for you
I love your affection
Take me in the right direction
For the rest of my life
Im a slave for your love
Just like mama said
I should be without you
But losing you Im dead
Your love is so tough
I swear I just cant get enough
Speaking to you with all sincerity
You dont know what you do to me
Its love, ooh baby its love
Baby its love makes me weep for you
I love your affection
Take me in the right direction
For the rest of my life
Thanks a lot for your affection
Always wanting your protection
For the rest of my life
Its love, ooh baby its love
Baby its love makes me weep for you
Thanks a lot for your affection
Always wanting your protection
For the rest of my life
Baby, for the rest of my life
Baby, baby, baby, baby
For the rest of my life
Baby, always wanting your protection

Affection

(l. stansfield/i. devaney/a. morris)
Feel the sun on your face and the wind in you hair
And a big, big love in your heart
So strong
Feel a hand in your hand and a whisper sweet and low
That says I love you
Spoken:
We all know what we want
Chorus:
Affection, its a way of life
Direction, all of us know which way were going
With our affection
Affection, may be big or small but know that
We can have it all with our affection
We know which way to go
Take a walk in the sun with the one you love
And a big, big love in your heart
So strong
And rest a little while, keep on smilin, smilin
Spoken:
We all know what we want
Chorus
Well, you could lay down and die for the one youre lovin
Theres a sweet, sweet love in your heart
So strong
When youre dancin on the air, like you dont care
Its honey on your lips and sweeter to your fingertips
You know what we want

A Heart Spring

One tear today, one love tomorrow
My heart springs from everyday sorrow.
A light blue, a scarlet red
into my soul those colors spread.
The hand of love me clench then said
‘Your sorrow is my love, my love your sorrow
to this I pledge and to this do wed'
Then my love cried with rain in my head
And declared to me that sorrow from joy must always borrow,
so one tear today can be one love tomorrow.
My heart sprang like the flowers in spring,
as her voice sang, that beautiful thing.
To sorrow, to love, to joy I sing…..

Tomorrow I’ll Be Stronger

Today I stand and ideate
Of the tomorrow I intend to create
With hopes and dreams, a joyful state
Cos today, I have been asked to wait

Today I work toward a tomorrow
Devoid of sadness and sorrow
Where joy can be found flourishing
And life completely enriching

Today I fight my phobias
My sadness and despair
And look toward a bright future
That tomorrow’s going to share

Today I stand in guilt,
For the mistakes I have committed
But work with all my heart to fix
The priorities I just omitted

Today is still a reality,
That’s staring in my face
Telling me of all the things I miss
Of all the things I chase

Today works on my feelings
My weakest points, exposed
But they’ll still exist tomorrow
Just taken care of and closed

Today might get the better of me,
But that’s a small price pay
Cos tomorrow I’ll be stronger still
And make that better way, stay

So bear with me for today,
In case I stumble or fall
To seem me rise again much stronger,
Wait till tomorrow before you call.

Day's

Yesterday It has came and gone
Once again secretly it has left us behind
Now all we have is regrets and past wishes
And the many dreams we never did find.
Those days are now part of our memory
While we might think back to why didn't I
But then remorse we will always remember
While we always question ourselves just why.

Tomorrow it will never be here
As tomorrow will always be tomorrow
That is were we put our dreams and our hopes
And where we escape from our sadness and sorrow.
It is the days that we do dread
And the days that we hope and pray to arrive
Where love is held and deadlines our met
But some how they never do survive.

Today is all that we are guaranteed
As we are promised no future or even past
We are here now so we much cherish that
As in the end that is all that might ever last.
We must live and learn by the day
So we must enjoy every second that we live
Never to put off till tomorrow do it today
As today is the only day that we hold captive.
