I Can't Get Started
I've flown around the world in a plane
I've settled revalations in Spain
The North Pole I have charted
Still I can't get started with you
On the golf course, I'm under par
And Metro Golden's asked me to star
I've got a house, a show place
Still I can't get no place with you
Cause you're so supreme
Lyrics I write of you
I dream, dream night and day of you
And I steam just for the sight of you
Baby what good does it do
I've been counsulted by Franklin D
And Greta Garbo gave me her key
Still I'm broken hearted
Cause I can't get started with you
In 1929 I sold short
In England I'm presented a cord
But you've got me down hearted
Cause I can't get started with you

Dream, both day and night of you
But what good does it do
In nineteen ninety-nine, I sold short
In England, I'm presented at court
Yeah you've got me so down-hearted
'Cause I'll never get started with you
You're so supreme
The lyrics I write of you
Scheme just for the sight of you
Dream, both day and night of you
But what, what good does it do

And Tina Turner had me to tea
But now I'm broken hearted
Cause I can't get started with you

Cause I can't get started with you

Finish What Ya Started
Come on baby, finish what ya started
That aint no way to treat the broken hearted
If you wanna see other guys
Baby, I could let it slide
You wanna lover, you want a friend
Mama, I can be both of them
I got the tools to satisfy
Just walk away, if I fall shy at all
Come on baby, finish what you started
Im incomplete
That aint no way to treat the broken hearted
I need some sympathy
I like to take each step, one by one
Right on time, you will arrive
By keepin the dream alive
Its alive and its kicking
Inside of me
So come on baby, please
Come on baby, finish what you started
Im incomplete
That aint no way to treat the broken hearted
Come on and finish me
Come on baby, finish what you started
That aint no way to treat the broken hearted
Come on baby, finish what you started
That aint no way to treat the broken hearted
Baby, come on

Oblivion
it's real sick
the state of the world today
it's real thick
to come up and find a way
solution
the next time you're alone
you can
create a world of your own
make it magic
give it love
make it all you're dreaming of
everybody
in my underwear
sometimes I visit there
oblivion
ignorance is bliss
don't know nothing but this
oblivion
forget
bounce from right to left
here with the broken hearted
let's get this party started
lalalalalala
I eat my marimbas
oblivion
I tingle when I sing
bling bling bling ting ting
oblivion
forget
bounce from right to left
here with the broken hearted
let's get this party started
it's tempting to pack up your throne
move in
make this magic place your home
but nobody else can go
you'll be forever all alone
forget
bounce from right to left
no longer broken hearted and I don't know when it started
oblivion

Star Of My Show

Used to be a time
When i wasn't doin' so good
But that was because i never understood
Just how much in love with me you were
But you paid your dues
Now i'm devoted to you
You're the star of my show
Always want you to do an encore
You're the star of my show, ooh, baby, baby
Used to be a time
When i wouldn't give reaction
Now, baby you're the centre of attraction
See your name shinin' brighter than the sun
Oh, you started at the bottom
And now you're number one
You're the star of my show
Always want you to do encore

The Hardest Button To Button
We started living in an old house
My ma gave birth and we were checking it out
It was a baby boy
So we bought him a toy
It was a ray gun
And it was 1981
We named him baby
He had a toothache
He started crying
It sounded like an earthquake
It didnt last long
Because I stopped it
I grabbed a rag doll
And stuck some little pins in it
Now were a family
And were alright now
We got some money and a little place
To fight now
We dont know you
And we dont owe you
But if you see us around
I got something else to show you
Well its easy when you dont know better
You think its sleazy?
Then put it in a short letter
We keep warm
But theres just something wrong with you
Just feel like youre the hardest button to button

Broken Hearted
By eric clapton and greg phillinganes
When the wind blows down this hard,
Many a bond is broken.
See the water lie on the ground
From where the heavens opened.
Lord, how will you get through this night
With your dreams departed?
And who alone will comfort you?
Only the broken hearted.
So youve gone beyond your means,
Every wound is open,
Your best laid plans are out of reach,
And all your fears unspoken.
Chorus
Sweet revenge is spoken then;
In the twilight it is gone.
To living lies with no escape,
Lord, I would rather be alone.
I press my fingers to the wood
To tell you of my dreaming,
To sing you songs from olden times,
To keep the love light gleaming.
cause theres a place where we can go,
Where we will not be parted.
And who alone will enter there?
Only the broken hearted.
Only the broken, broken hearted.
Only the broken, broken hearted.
Only the broken, broken hearted.
Only the broken, broken hearted.

All I want is love what I want
Oh, yeah what I want
And all you gotta do is listen to me, baby what I want

You got to think about it
And do something about it

Day day if you cant afford to

Take me on for a ride
Lift me up from the broken hearted
Rivers deep and wide
Lift me up

Wants what she wants me for

Believe me what she do at night I dont know

Negotiating it

Where Does The Broken-Hearted Go
Where does the broken-hearted go
when its world is in despair.
Where does it run to
and in whom does it console.
Where does the broken-hearted go
when winter chills the soul.
Will it mend and find
another to love again.
Where does the broken-hearted go
when day turns into night
and the candle flickers and dies
extinguishing all the light.
Where do the broken-hearted go
please tell me someone?
My heart has been broken
and I need to know where to go.

Its Up To You
Some people are very hard to shake awake
Some things are hard to define
Some lazy peopleve got haze on the brain
No motivation vacations holidays
You say you wanna change the world upside down

Gotta go all the way
Start today

Gotta try gotta try
(chorus)
Its up to you to get things started
Its up to you no no not half hearted
Take each and every day as if it is your last
Its up to you youve things to do

Some have an attitude of fool all the rest
Take it all have a ball dont accept second best

Take each and every day as if it is your last

Cast Adrift
Within the heartfelt sadness,
my ship sails across a barren sea
towards no island of love for me.
Cast adrift to an empty place
where the broken-hearted go
on a sea made of tears
where no one wants to go.
My days are spent in remorse
for things said and done.
Thinking back I realise
I should have done something
before the worst begun.
Now I am cast adrift to an empty place
where the broken-hearted go.
Once I sailed among the stars
on loves golden wings,
felt the sun smile on my face,
touching heaven with my fingertips
before my world caved in.
You left me for another
and cast me adrift to an empty place
where the broken-hearted go.

Big Hearted Me
Don gibson
Big hearted me,big hearted me
Big hearted me
I had to give my love away
I give it to a girl
That broke it in two like it was clay
I should have known better
I should have never let her
But I couldnt break free
I gave her all my love so generously
Big hearted me
Big hearted me,big hearted me
I bought her everything
A mink and a ring
A home so fine
I thought she loved me so
There never was a doubt that she was mine
Until one day I opened my eyes and plain as could be
My love was all gone
She left me all alone
Big hearted me
Big hearted me
Big hearted me
Big hearted me

In and Out
I threw my head back, opened my but nothing came out.I started to think 'Is this what I've really became?
A giant freak with nothing to say.
Wait I need to wake up from this dream and come back reality.'.
As I wake up from this dream I notice something,
I'm in new place.
I started to ask my self, how did I get here?
I see all these unfamiliar faces.
I look around to find some one I knew.
But no luck.
Is there anybody I know out there?
Guess not.
I Guess I just have to turn back down dream again.

Too Much
(words & music by lee rosenberg - bernard weinman)
Honey, I love you too much
Need your lovin too much
Want the thrill of your touch
Gee, I cant hold you too much
You do all the livin
While I do all the givin
Cause I love you too much
You spend all my money too much
Have to share you honey, too much
When I want some lovin, youre gone
Dont you know youre treatin me wrong
Now you got me started
Dont you leave me broken hearted
Cause I love you too much
Evry time I kiss your sweet lips
I can feel my heart go flip flip
Im such a fool for your charms
Take me back baby in your arms
Like to hear you sighin
Even though I know youre lyin
Cause I love you too much
Need your lovin all the time
Need you huggin, please be mine
Need you near me, stay real close
Please, please, hear me, youre the most
Now you got me started
Dont you leave me broken hearted
Cause I love you too much

Aima
The burden of guilt,
Self abuse;
But Aima came in and told me what went wrong!
And like narrowing the boundaries in the land of your muse;
But, i am seriously watching you.
The face of a broken hearted man,
The face of a broken hearted woman,
The face of a broken hearted boy,
The face of a broken hearted girl,
The face of a broken hearted lady,
The face of a broken hearted gentleman,
And like your bedtime stories with your bed-mates;
But, i have no customer service on this issue at hand.

White Lies (Don't Do It To Me)
Your scrapbook's filled with pictures
Of all your leading men
Oh baby don't put my picture
In there with them
Oh don't make us some little girl's dream
That can not ever really ever come true
Baby don't do it to me
I won't do it to you
You see all the romantic movies
You dream and take the boy's home
But when the action fades girl
You're left there all alone
----------?
----------?
----------?
---------to see the late late show
----------?
--------do it?
--------to him to her?
---make you cry like you do girl
Now every night you go out looking
For true love's satisfaction
But in the morning you always end up
Settling for just lights, camera, action
In another cameo role
With some bit play you're befriending
You're gonna go broken hearted
Looking for that happy ending
Well girl you're gonna you're gonna end up
Just another lonely ticket sold
Crying alone in the theater
At the end of the show
Don't make us some little girl's dream
That can not ever really ever come true
Baby don't do it to me
I won't do it to you
Yeah, i won't do it to you
