I'm sorry mom
I'm sorry mom.
I never meant for that to happen.
I'm sorry mom.
But I'm not the same tappin
Ballerina I was ten years ago.
But please I don't want you to go.
I'm sorry mom.
That I can't be what you want me to be.
I'm sorry mom.
That I can't make you proud of me.
I can't help if I love vampires.
But please don't make me a liar.
I'm sorry mom.
That you didn't understand.
I'm sorry mom.
That I never took a stand.
But you taught me to be like this.
So please don't diss.
I'm sorry mom.
I never wanted you to cry.
I'm sorry mom.
I really want to die.
But you never showed me you cared.
You never once liked what I weared.
I'm sorry mom.
This wasn't how it was supposed to be.
I'm sorry mom.
I only wanted to make you proud of me.
But you always tried to change me.
But why can't you believe?

Falling
I never meant for it to happen
I never meant to feel this way
I always thought I was unable
My heart was locked, feelings kept at bay
I couldnt help it, I was falling
It happened all on its own
I never meant for it to happen
Falling was my unknown
I fell wholeheartedly
Tripped an kissed the deck
I never meant for it to happen
I couldnt keep it in check
Falling is a rollercoaster
A ride not to forget
I never meant to feel this way
He my Romeo, I his Juliet
I never meant for it to happen
I never meant to feel this way
I fell in love
Thats all there is to say

The Voice
Lord, have mercy
Bang! - A gunshot rings out
13-year-old baby falls 2 the ground
See the killer runnin' down the street
Tell me killer, can U hear the sound?
Tap, tap, tappin' on your window like a fallin' rain
Cryin' like a baby in a cradle sayin' pick me up again
Ching! - Mr. Politician goes on vacation
Brings along a friend or 2
In the disguise of taxes
Mr. Politician (sends) sends the bill 2 U know who
Tap, tap, tappin' on your window like a fallin' rain
(Tappin' on my window like a fallin' rain)
Cryin' like a baby in a cradle sayin' pick me up again
(Cryin' like a baby, pick me up)
Can't U hear the voice? (Oh yeah)
The nightsticks are still singin'
4-part harmony on brother's back
Justice is doomed when we don't start no S-H
And there's still some I-T in all of that
Tap, tap, tappin' on your window like a fallin' rain
(Can't U hear it tappin' like a fallin' rain fine-tune cryin' like a baby?)
Cryin' like a baby in a cradle sayin' pick me up again
(Pick me up, pick me up)
I'm talkin' about the voice, y'all
Ha, suky, suky now
Sho'mon (Tap)
Sho'mon (Tap)
Help me here (Tap)
Tappin' (Tap)
Tappin', tappin', ha ha (Tap)
Tap on it, tap on it (Tap) (Tap)
Can't U see it's just dirty money?
If your brother man is dyin' in the flow
Take off these chains (Tap) (Tap)
And listen 2 the voice callin' (Tap)
We gotta go, gotta go (Tap) (Tap)
Tap, tap, tappin' on your window like a fallin' rain
(Oh yeah, like a fallin' rain)
Cryin' like a baby in a cradle sayin' pick me up again
(Cryin' like a baby, pick me up, pick me up)
5-4-3-2-1, keep the war over (Tap)
But how many wanna keep the peace (Tap) (Tap)
We keep buildin' guns when we could build love (Tap)
(When we need 2 build love)
Cuz that's when the war will cease
U know it, U know it (Tap) (Tap)
Can't U hear the voices? (Tap) (Tap)
Can't U hear the sound? (Tap)
Take heed, get your house in order (Tap)
Tap, tap, tappin' on your window like a fallin' rain
(Tappin', tappin' like a.. like a fallin' rain)
Cryin' like a baby in a cradle sayin' pick me up again
(Cryin' like a baby, pick me up, pick me up)
Sighin' like a woman on fire
When she's ready 4 some of your love
(Born ready 4 all of your love)
The voice is just a-steady-callin'
(The voice is callin')
Until U give in, until U give up

Oh Pretty Ballerina
Oh pretty ballerina with a bow in your hair
How i envy your movements so graceful and beautiful
How i long for your lean figure and fragile frame
Oh pretty ballerina with a bow in your hair
How i envy the way the world spins around you
Yet you don't fall like the rest
How i long for your balance
That keeps you so poised
Oh pretty ballerina with a bow in your hair
How i envy your slippers
That gleam in the lights
How i long for the dresses
That shimmer with every glide you do
Oh pretty ballerina with a bow in your hair
How i envy your perfection
How i long for your adoration

Dance, Ballerina, Dance
(bob russell, carl sigman)
Dance, ballerina, dance
And do your pirouette in rhythm with your achin heart.
Dance, ballerina, dance
You mustnt once forget a dancer has to dance the part.
Whirl, ballerina, whirl
And just ignore the chair thats empty in the second row.
This is your moment, girl,
Although hes not out there applauding as you steal the show.
Once you said his love must wait its turn
You wanted fame instead.
I guess thats your concern,
We live and learn.
And love is gone, ballerina, gone
So on with your career, you cant afford a backward glance.
Dance on and on and on
A thousand people here have come to see the show
As round and round you go
So ballerina, dance
Dance, dance!
Whirl, ballerina!
Once you said his love must wait its turn,
You wanted fame instead.
I guess thats your concern,
We live and learn.
And love is gone, ballerina, gone
So on with your career, you cant afford a backward glance
Dance on and on and on
A thousand people here have come to see the show
As round and round you go
So ballerina, dance!
Dance!

Ballerina
Spread your wings
Come on fly awhile
Straight to my arms
Little angel child
You know you only
Lonely twenty-two story block
And if somebody, not just anybody
Wanted to get close to you
For instance, me, baby
All you gotta do
Is ring a bell
Step right up, step right up
And step right up
Ballerina
Crowd will catch you
Fly it, sigh it, try it
Well, I may be wrong
But something deep in my heart tells me Im right and I dont think so
You know I saw the writing on the wall
When you came up to me
Child, you were heading for a fall
But if it gets to you
And you feel like you just cant go on
All you gotta do
Is ring a bell
Step right up, and step right up
And step right up
Just like a ballerina
Stepping lightly
Alright, well its getting late
Yes it is, yes it is
And this time I forget to slip into your slumber
The light is on the left side of your head
And Im standing in your doorway
And Im mumbling and I cant remember the last thing that ran through my head
Here come the man and he say, he say the show must go on
So all you gotta do
Is ring the bell
And step right up, and step right up
And step right up
Just like a ballerina, yeah, yeah
Crowd will catch you
Fly it, sight it, cmon, die it, yeah
Just like a ballerina
Just like a just like a just like a ballerina
Get on up, get on up, keep a-moving on, little bit higher, baby
You know, you know, you know, get up baby
Alright, a-keep on, a-keep on, a-keep on, a-keep on pushing
Stepping lightly
Just like a ballerina
Ooo-we baby, take off your shoes
Working on
Just like a ballerina

Don't Believe In Accidents (demo)
Anything can happen
when I wind up alone with you
Put your finger on the things I like to do
Well anything can happen
There's a feel in the air around you
Commanding parts of me
I never ever knew
I want your love
of flesh and blood
hey you!
This was really meant to be
It's for sure our destiny
Making lovers out of friends
I don't believe in accidents
Anything can happen
when you hit that electric room in me
I lose the time, the place and everything I see
Well anything can happen
there's nothin' else in the world I'd rather do
than to feed the secret dreams
hidden in you
You want the love
of flesh and blood
hey you!
This was really meant to be
It's for sure our destiny
Making lovers out of friends
I don't believe in accidents
I don't believe in accidents
Hey you!
This was really meant to be
It's for sure our destiny
Making lovers out of friends
Don't believe in accidents
This was really meant to be
It's for sure our destiny
Making lovers out friends
I don't believe in accidents
I don't believe in accidents
Don't believe in accidents

Clair De Lune / Ballerina
(Dennis DeYoung)
It seems you finally had to choose
I guess there was no other way
Between my love and satin shoes
I knew the words you'd have to say
It all began so long ago
That the memory's hardly clear
But when I seen you dance I know
Half your love I'll always share
Ballerina when you dance there's music
Colored lights illuminate your movement
Crowded halls anticipate your gentle smile
Ballerina from the first I knew that
You would always have to dance I knew that
There would surely come a day when you would go
Baby I know...
Dance for me, I beg of you, dance for me
Dance for me, ballerina, dance for me
Ballerina when you dance there's music
Colored lights illuminate your movement
Crowded halls anticipate your gentle smile

Today Mueller
Let it happen
Happy slappin', tappin' paddy-oh
She'd like to give her life away
Like to stay another day
Try it out another way
Arh, today, today, today, today mueller
Give your notice of your leaving
Arh, today, today, today, today mueller
Don't tell them you can't go with me
This will always be
Red rover, red rover
Pass under, pass over, pass through
And over, and over the White Cliffs of Dover with you
Today mueller

Nina Pretty Ballerina
Every day in the morning on her way to the office
You can see as she catches a train
Just a face among a million faces
Just another woman with no name
Not the girl youd remember but shes still something special
If you knew her I am sure youd agree
cause I know shes got a little secret
Friday evening she turns out to be...
Nina, pretty ballerina, now she is the queen of the dancing floor
This is the moment shes waited for
Just like cinderella, just like cinderella
Nina, pretty ballerina, who would ever think she could be this way
This is the part that she likes to play
But she knows the fun would go away
If she would play it every day
So shes back every morning to her work at the office
And another week to live in a dream
And another row of early mornings
In an almost never-ending stream
Doesnt talk very often, kind of shy and uncertain
Everybody seems to think shes a bore
But they wouldnt know her little secret
What her friday night would have in store...
Nina, pretty ballerina, now she is the queen of the dancing floor
This is the moment shes waited for
Just like cinderella, just like cinderella
Nina, pretty ballerina, who would ever think she could be this way
This is the part that she likes to play
She would like to play it every day
Nina, pretty ballerina, now she is the queen of the dancing floor
This is the moment shes waited for
Just like cinderella, just like cinderella
Nina, pretty ballerina, who would ever think she could be this way
This is the part that she likes to play

The Only One For Me
You just happen to be
the only one for me.
And even though I never knew it
up until now,
it's confusing to me
and makes me wonder how
so many years that I've been given
I missed out on so much livin'.
But love is magic
and the magic takes you
to where you belong.
Yeah, love is magic.
It reaches out to you
just like a song.
The years that flew when I never knew
are all the years that I lost.
But it's okay now 'cause I know somehow
that all those roads that I crossed
have led me back to you.
You just happen to be
the only one for me.
And even though I know it
I'm not allowed to show it
So I keep you locked inside my heart
and the magic won't let it ever depart.
'Cause you just happen to be
the only one, the one for me.

It was total naivety that got me to Hollywood. I thought it was going to happen straight away. I told myself 'give it 5 years, there's no way I'll be here after that if it doesn't happen'. Cut to ten years later!

My Lune
if loving her unthinkable things happen
like we see in Harlem then living
in Harlem unthinkable things
could happen in the backyard of love
think of a beautiful ballerina
dancer twirling weaving your name
with a juice snaking coiling cascading
with a dagger to your name beats it hard
everybody in funky beat rock shock
and the dance goes on and on and the
music silver shines with the moon and the
dance and the dancers go on and on with the
silver moon high up away from the world
if loving her unthinkable things happen
remember when rain falls on thatch roof
raindrops drip into pans looking dark clean
like glass opaque they light nose-tips of
travelers lightning the long paths ahead

Ballerina Girl
Ballerina girl you are so lovely
With you standing there
Im so aware
Of how much I care for you
You are more than now
You are for always
I can see in you my dreams come true
Dont you ever go away
You make me feel like
Theres nothing I cant do
And when I hold you
I only want to say I love you
Ballerina girl the joy you bring me
Every day and night
Holding you tight
How Ive waited for your love
Sometimes Ive wondered
If youd ever come my way
Now that Ive finally found you
This is where my heart will stay woah
Never gonna break your heart
Never will we drift apart

Endings
The end of spring is the end of years of hard ache,
One felt beauty to be a metallic work of suddenness;
The endings so summoned meant gravity of sin,
Once the reasons were declared for the peace.
Gone were the days when hours meant hugging and laughing,
Their strange meaning pervaded the religion so taught;
Days and nights alighted the years of change,
One of the days meant more laughter than some.

Years 1
For years I let the torment go on
Years I let you get in my head
Years I had to cry myself to sleep
your out now and last night
what you did to me replayed in my head again
I told myself i wasn't going to let it happen but it did
For years I have lived in scared quarters
For years I have looked for your face
For years I have never felt safe
For years I have remembered

Maria
Theres a soft rain tappin on your window
Theres a cool breeze blowin off the bay
And a warm flame dancin with our shadows
To music playin far away
I never meant to stay an hour
I thought that I was passing through
Another town along the highway
I never meant to fall for you
Chorus:
But I cant speak for you maria
I only know the way I feel
When I sleep with you, maria
Theres nothing left for dreams to steal
On a Bible by the mirror
The only treasures that we hold
The only secrets that were keepin
A watch, a chain, a cross of gold
Repeat chorus
When the sunlight brings the mornin
I cant tell you what Ill do
But Ive a mind to take you with me
And Ive got heart to stay with you
Repeat chorus
When I sleep with you, maria
Theres nothin left for dreams to steal
