Flying Monkeys

I’m calling on you because I’m a wreck,
And I used to dream of becoming a professor when I
Jogged around the junked golf course
By the side of deep twilight, and the paltry swathed condominiums:
To tell you the truth, I haven’t loved too many women-
Mostly, I’ve been able to count them on two hands
And you rank right up there,
But now my legs are cold from drinking cheap rum:
Can you love a man without any fashion sense
Or social position?
A man terribly wounded in the dark of a fraternity’s
Pick-up truck, so he doesn’t even know where he’s
Hurt, but he just remembers you sometime in
North Central Florida before Halloween in that Asian
Restaurant joint now demolished on 13th street;
What the F-, now it flows- now it flows- I don’t
Yet have a bicycle or a home on an island, but give it time:
And the girl I neglected by dreaming of you has a new
House and better ways to make her living;
And this is not good, and now I don’t care to teach anything
To the living; but love me, if you will, in your time,
In the quieted spaces between the snows and your inevitable
Breast feedings- because I love you,
And it is the only thing that reoccurs to me every evening
As I chop down trees, oiling my joints and looking up from
Time to time to keep an eye out for flying monkeys….

Calling Your Name Again

I wake up in the dark
Silence brings me to my senses
I wonder where you are
Then I feel a pain, a pain in my heart
Cause Im living without your love
And Im all alone for the first time
And it doesnt seem to be a dream
A dream that will be over
All the words you said
Werent enough to fool this heartache
Memories in my head
Arent enough to stop me falling apart
Cause Im living without your love
And maybe it wont be the last time
I dont know how much more I can take
Hope is wide awake and here I go
(*) calling your name again
Thinking of all that we two had before
Theres got to be more this I know
Calling your name again
Remembering all the love you gave to me
And how we used to be
I think of whats to come
Then I turn and see your picture
The tears begin to fall
And soon I can make sense of nothing at all
Cause Im living without your love
Hoping that Ill make it this time
Something tells me this is not the end
Wish I could pretend but here I go
Repeat (*)

Time flows

Time, time just flows
Fills your heart with, highes and lows
Time, time just flows
Shows you birds, the dogs and the crows

You try to stop it
Try to block it
But you can't go
You try to turn it
Try to burn it
But you can not go

Time, time just flows
Takes your name and makes you history heroes
Time, time just flows
Pulls you around, streaches and throws with blows

You try to harm it
Try to charm it
But you can't go
You try to kill it
Try to fill it
But you can not go

This is the time you go around
This is the time you hear the sound
This is the time you run and win
This is the time you find your kin

Just go
Oh! just go

Time it just flows

Wings Of Love

I was living in a daydream
Letting time a days my mind
I didnt know what I was missing
Till you came into my life
When I saw you pretty girl
Felt as going inside
When I kissed you pretty girl
Felt you lighted up my mind
Boy Im crying
Im on the wings of love
And I know that
It comes from junior love
All in hands we walk together
Nothings gonna make us fast
But our love wil lives forever
If the sun thats in our heart
Making love is also sweet
Were lost in each others eyes
And I bought infinity
That the one turnes to life
Boy Im flying
Im on the wings of love
And I know that
It comes from junior love
Now Im living in a lovedream
Time and days are passing by
Now I realy know what love is
I cant help smiling all the time
When youre with me pretty girl
I feel your warmth by my side
When you touch me pretty girl
Brings that joy often high
Boy Im flying
Im on the wings of love
And I know that
It comes from junior love
(and I know that
It comes from junior love)

The Way You Are

The Way You Are

Sometimes you ignore me
Sometimes you roll your eyes
Sometimes you don't notice me
And just give me a deep sigh

Sometimes you make me cry
Sometimes you make me weep
Sometimes when I pass by
I just give you the creeps

Sometimes you boss me around
Sometimes you tell me what to do
Sometimes I go round and round
Just to please and satisfy you

BUT...

Most of the time you make me happy
Most of the time you give me smiles
Most of the time you make me feel uneasy
I can hear my heart beat through miles

Most of the time you raise me up
Most of the time you encourage me
Most of the time you fill me up
Fill me up with overflowing glee

Most of the time you hold me tight
Most of the time you lift me up so high
Most of the time you teach me what's right
You make me fly way into the sky

Most of the time you are my support
Most of the time you are my light
Most of the time you give me comfort
You help me with all your might

Sometimes you make me hate you
Most of the time I just hide it inside
Sometimes you make me want to kill you
But most of the time, I just want you by my side

Sometimes...
Most of the time...
Sometimes...
Most of the time...

That's just the way it is
That's just the way you are

But I love the way it is...

And I certainly love...

The way you are

Reflections (Care Enough)

Reflections of your love
Have come to wither
I thought I'd done my best to memorize
A picture fades of you and I together
I haven't come to terms
With how we said goodbye

Did you really care
Care for me at all
Did you really care
Did you care for me at all

A displaced little girl
Wept years in silence
And whispered wishes you'd materialize
She pressed on night and day
To keep on living
And tried to many ways
To keep her soul alive

Did you really care
Care enough for me
Did you really care
Did you care at all for me

If I'm not quite good enough
Or somehow undeserving of
A mother's love

You could have had the decency
To give me up
Before you gave me life

Don't you even care
Just the slightest bit for me
Cause I really need to feel you cared
Even once upon a time for me
I need to believe

Living A Boys Adventure Tale

(pal waaktaar/morten harket)
Ive fixed my dwelling for the night
Lights in pairs come passing by
Where I hide
I need some time now on my own
Leave my loneliness alone
To lick my wounds
Night has found me just in time
To help me close my eyes
One more time
Living a boys adventure tale
In so many ways
Living a boys adventure tale
For so many days
Im living a boys adventure tale
Cant escape, if I wanted to
Living a boys adventure tale
I may be dreaming but I feel awake
Ive been lost in so many places
Seeked love in so many faces
A change of weather,
The rain pours down
My head in hands,
Pressed to the ground
And where am I supposed to go now
Living a boys adventure tale
In so many ways
Living a boys adventure tale (aah)
Living a boys adventure tale
A voice I hear
Living a boys adventure tale
Singing a lullaby for me
Living a boys adventure tale
Because of you
Living a boys adventure
Oh you know its true
Living a boys adventure tale
In so many ways (aah)
For so many days
I love you. I love you
So many ways

The Independent Woman....

we are in this house
that from our sweat built
there are only two of us
in this house
which we have not really
called as home,
something's missing
you give me a hint
not the glass window or
the ceiling fan,
i know it but how can i
tell you?
i won't tell, it will hurt you,
we continue living
somehow
just the two of us in this house

we have our own careers
and every morning we rush to go on our different ways
the night is the only place
of our tryst
we manage to spend time for love
we sleep together and share
what we can

there will be a time when this house shall fall
because it is not a home for us all

there will be one morning when you will finally leave
and take away everything from me


and then i will write it on the wall
this house is never a home,
she never wanted a child to bear.

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
Falling in love again

Makin' Good Love

I got your legs spread all over the bed
hands clenched in the sheets
hair wild as hell I know
the only thing on your mind is sexin me
girl I can feel your temperature rising
you should feel my nature too
come on you should its gonna be a bumpy ride
girl lets do what we came to do

Girl when we make love all night
when we make good love all night
when we make love all night
we really make love
girl when we make love all night
when we make good love all night
when we make love all night
we really make love (come to daddy baby)

On the balcony ripping the rails
slowly I'm pulling you near
sayin shhhh babe dont make to much noise
theres alot of peoples who live around here
emotions running high
my hands planted on your thighs
you feel me going up and down
and round and round and round

Girl when we make love all night
when we make good love all night
when we make love all night
we really make love
girl when we make love all night
when we make good love all night
when we make love all night
we really make love (come to daddy baby)

Girl your drive wait in the back seat
windows tinted its getting deep
fog all over the glass
I dont know how long i can last
with you moaning crazy
girl keep on calling me
I'll take you to exctasy
and when im done you'll be fast asleep

Girl when we make love all night
when we make good love all night
when we make love all night
we really make love
girl when we make love all night
when we make good love all night
when we make love all night
we really make love (come to daddy baby)

The house the boat and the jeep babe
in the tube in the pool or the beach babe
get your groove on (get your groove on) get your groove on [x2]

Girl when we make love all night
when we make good love all night
when we make love all night
we really make love
girl when we make love all night
when we make good love all night
when we make love all night
we really make love (come to daddy baby)

Once Upon A Time

Once upon a time
There was a girl
Who lived in the land
Of dreams unreal
Hiding from reality
Treated like a stranger
Living in her fantasies
Trapped within their world

Once upon a time
Her hopes had died
No one there to hear
Her futile cries
Living in a house of stone
No one on her side
Family in name alone
No place left to hide
Aah!

Once upon a time
Once upon a time
Once upon a time
Once upon a time

Once upon a dream
A man will come
And give her everything
She wants and loves
But in the morning
She'll awake
To face the room around her
It's just another lonely day

There Is a Time To.....

There is.......

A time to write,
A time to listen,
A time to learn,
A time to play,

A time to read,
A time to see,
A time to lead,
A time to sleep,

A time to be happy,
A time to be mad,
A time to be silly,
A time to be sad.

A time to wake,
A time to stay,
A time to talk,
A time to walk.

A time to help,
A time to hurt,
A time to scheme,
A time to dream,

A time to make a difference,
A time to love,
A time to try,
A time to die

A time to wonder,
A time to want,
A time to live,
A time to do something.

There is always going to be a time,
But will you do something when that time comes?

Time Is On Our Side

Girl, theres more to love than meets the eye,
Girl, theres more to what I feel inside.
And if I told you, would you be my girl, for you Id travel round the world.
Time is on our side, girl, youre my one true love, girl,
Weve come too far to ever be just friends.
Time is on our side, girl, lets show the whole world,
Love is the answer and time is our closest friend.
If I sent you flowers, would you walk away,
Or would it be enough to make you stay?
Even though were young, girl, one things for sure,
In time our love will endure.
Time is ...
Babe, what would you say, time brings us closer every day.
Time is ...
Time is ...

Oklahoma-Texas Line

Got an old dog, it don't like me much
That thing starts to bark his head off every time we touch
Sittin' on the porch listenin' to the radio
We sing every single song we know
Even the ones we don't
When she moves a little closer
She puts her hand in mine
Oh what I wouldn't give to stop the hands of time
She's got long blonde hair and deep blue eyes
I got all I ever need when at girl is by my side
Everything I love is there inside
A little brick house on the Oklahoma-Texas Line
She's got a part time job at the Tastee-freeze
She took the weekend off to spend a little bit of time with me
I got an old car we drove to the edge of town
We stopped by Old Man Millers' farm
Just to watch the world spin around
And she moves a little closer
She puts her lips to mine
Ain't funny how the good Lord out does himself sometimes
She's got long blonde hair and deep blue eyes
I got all I ever need when at girl is by my side
Everything I love is there inside
A little brick house on the Oklahoma-Texas Line
Everything I love is there inside
A little brick house with a black top drive
Big oak tree with our names carved on the side
She's got long blonde hair and deep blue eyes
I got all I ever need when at girl is by my side
Everything I love is there inside
A little brick house, little brick house on the Oklahoma-Texas Line
Oh here they come
Long blonde hair and deep blue eyes
Everything I love...

I Love L. A.

Hate new york city
Its cold and its damp
And all the people dressed like monkeys
Lets leave chicago to the eskimos
That towns a little too rugged
For you and me, you bad girl
Rollin down the imperial highway
With a big nasty redhead at my side
Santa ana wind blowin hot from the north
And we was born to ride
Roll down the window, put down the top
Crank up the beach boys, baby
Dont let the music stop
Were gonna ride it till we just cant ride it no more
From the south bay to the valley
From the west side to the east side
Everybodys very happy
cause the sun is shining all the time
Looks like another perfect day
I love l.a. (we love it)
I love l.a. (we love it)
Look at that mountain
Look at that tree
Look at that bum over there, man
Hes down on his knees
Look at these women
There aint nothin like em nowhere
Century boulevard (we love it)
Victory boulevard (we love it)
Santa monica boulevard (we love it)
Sixth street (we love it, we love it)
I love l.a.
I love l.a.
(we love it)

Love The Time

Love the time
Love the time
Love the time
You have for you
Love the time you spend outside
Because this nice weather won't last very long
Fall is on its way soon
Love the time
To listen for the song of the birds
This might be the last time
Love the time
You have to reflect on your life
Love the time
You are worshiping God
Love the time that you are discovering your feelings
Love the time that you are learning about yourself
Love the time
Your soul waits in silence for God only
He is your rock and your salvation
Love the time
To dream
Love the time to paint a picture in your mind
Love the time
When you have a positive attitude
Love the time
When you are in the valley of the shadow
You will fear no evil
Because you are with God now
Love the time
Because you belong together with God
Love the time
That you are being yourself
Love the time
That you are moving on
And doing better things to improve your spirit
Love the time that you are gaining your trust back
Love the time that you are gaining self respect
Love the time that you are building your self esteem up
Love the time that you are watching the gold star at night
Love the time that God carried you to solidarity
Love the time that God will bear you up
So that you will not strike your foot against a stone
Love the time that you saw the great light
Because there were people that were sitting in the dark
And you were the lucky one
Love the time that God has opened up the door for you
Love the time that God has given you a chance
Love the time to know that the past is a part of you
Love the time that God is comforting you when you are sad
Love the time when you see writings on the wall
That you can read
Love the time to enjoy your freedom
Love the time when you are flying on the airplane
And looking out through the Airplane window
The sunset in the sky
Love the time when you sing out the blues
Love the time
Love the time
Love the time
Love the time
Love the time
Love the time
Love the time that God will set you free
Love the time when the sun will rise early in the morning in the summer
Love the time
Love the time
Love the time
Love the time to know that age is no barrier to beauty

The Girl in Flordia

Met a girl in Florida
She was fine for a time
Then we both became bored out of our mined

I just moved their
finding a job was all i needed
but time was short
I lost my seat

She found another oh brother
I lost the house I called home
She took in a megans law
That brought nothing less then shock an awe
So tell me how'd that work?
You chose the sick over me
I guess I had to much honesty
I guess it was something I really didn't need
She was not my destiny certainly

I was told I could so much better
But your kids I loved as my own
What you did was just wrong
Demented and too far gone
Beyond my reach
With my words if I could only teach
This was the last time I ever heard from the girl in Florida

Get It Right This Time

Oh, you know, well get it right this time. I could be up
There with you so high, girl. (I really love you baby).

With a grin. this time, this time, this time. I know I was

Its been a year. but where theres love there is nothing to
Fear. this time, this time, this time. made my mistakes but
No foot on the brakes. this time.
Heaven so wide. it seemed so clear. time after time after
Time.
Look at the way love has gone. up there in your lonely room
Tonight. look at yourself pretty one. I could be holding you
Oh so tight.
You know, well get it right this time. this time will be for
Sure. I could be up there with you so high, girl. this time
Will be for sure. (I really love you baby).
Look at the way love has gone. talk about, talk about, talk
About, talk about. dont let it disappear now. up there
Alone in your room every night. isnt it sad what I see? all
Alone all alone all alone all alone. is this the way it should
Be? open the book and then take one mad look back.
Oh, you know, well get it right this time. this time will be
For sure. I could be up there with you so high, girl. this time
Will be for sure.

Well get it right this time. oh, you know, well get it right
This time this time will be for sure, girl.

If she only knows

If she only knows
Every night he murmurs in my pillow
Calling her name in his sleep
Asking why she never notices his feeling
If she only knows
She’s the only one in his dream
He’ll do anything, anything to please her
Anything to get her
She’s always cold, too proud to surrender
But he doesn’t care
She could break him, easily play his heart
But he can’t give up
He wants her, he only wants her to spend his life
Though there are so many other women
He needs her, in need to love her
To protect her, to make her smiles
If she only knows
She’s the only one in his mind
I see her shadow in his eyes
Every time he kisses me, every time he holds me
If she only knows
I’m always on his side, to comfort him
To say those lies
Someday she’ll know his feeling
She’ll know he always loves her, always waits for her
If she finally knows
I will end this game, I’ll release him, I’ll forget him
If she only knows
I always hate her

It Must Have Been Love

It must have been love
Lay a whisper on my pillow
Leave the winter on the ground
I wake up lonely
Theres air of silence
In the bedroom and all around
Touch me now
I close my eyes and dream away
It must have been love but its over now
It must have been good but I lost it somehow
It must have been love but its over now
From the moment we touched til the time had run out
Make-believing were together
That Im sheltered by your heart
But in and outside
Ive turned to water like a teardrop in your palm
And its a hard winters day
I dream away
It must have been love but its over now
It was all that I wanted
Now Im living without
It must have been love but its over now
Its where the water flows
Its where the wind blows
