Watching The Hours Go By
Somebody loves you , somebody cares
You own the love that somebody shares
You should be with me , spending your time
Loving me , loving me now
Holding me only , but now
Im just watching the hours go by
Nothing to do but cry
Now you are gone
I should be glad
But I love you only
So thats why Im sad
Go to your baby , dont make him cry
Each time you kiss him , remember I die
Walls are my neighbors , shadows my friends
Keeping me , watching me there
All of the things we shared
Im just watching the hours go by
Nothing to do but cry
Now you are gone
I should be glad
But I love you only
So thats why Im sad
(break)
Walls are my neighbors , shadows my friends
Keeping me , watching me there
All of the things we shared
Now Im watching the hours go by
Nothing to do but cry
Now you are gone
I should be glad
But I love you only
So thats why Im sad (fade)

Black Bruises I
I can stare into the blackness,
the void of many abysses
behind every dark curtains
I can endure calm and silence
watching pole dancers grind,
watching stars scintillate,
watching still shadows on the walls,
watching dislimned reflections,
watching trees pass me by,
watching ethers wash the screen,
watching my lonely feet,
watching little things sway;
but am I the only one watching
these black bruised visions?

Watching Me Watching You
I sit by the cutting on the beaconsfield line.
Hes watching me watching the trains go by.
And they move so fast --- boy, they really fly.
Hes still watching me watching you watching the
Trains go by.
And the way he stares --- feel like locking my door
And pulling my phone from the wall.
His eyes, like lights from a laser, burn
Making my hair stand --- making the goose-bumps crawl.
Hes watching me watching you watching him
Watching me
Im watching you watching him watching me
Watching stares.
At the cocktail party with a bucks fizz in my hand
I feel him watching me watching the girls go by.
And they move so smooth without even trying.
Hes still watching me watching you watching the
Trains go by.
And the crowd thins and he moves up close but he doesnt speak.
I have to look the other way.
But curiosity gets the better part of me and I peek:
Got two drinks in his hand --- see his lips move ---
What the hells he trying to say.
Hes watching me watching you watching him
Watching me.
Im watching you watching him watching me
Watching stares.
Hes watching me watching you watching him
Watching me.
Hes watching me watching you watching
The trains go by.
Hes watching me watching you watching him
Watching me.
Hes watching me watching you watching him watching me.
Hes watching me watching you watching him watching me watching him watching.

Watching For Pa
Three little forms in the twilight gray,
Searching the shadows across the way;
Two pair of black eyes, and one of blue --
Brimful of love, and of mischief too;
Watching for Pa!
Watching for Pa!
Sitting by the window,
Watching for Pa!
Watching for Pa!
Watching for Pa!
Sitting by the window,
Watching for Pa!
May, with her placid and thoughtful brow,
Beaming with kindness and love just now;
Willie the youngest, in anguish did lay,
Stealing sly kisses from sister May,
Watching for Pa!
Watching for Pa!
Sitting by the window,
Watching for Pa!
Watching for Pa!
Watching for Pa!
Sitting by the window,
Watching for Pa!
Nellie, with ringlets of sunny hue,
Cosily nested between the two;
Pressing her cheeks to the window pane,
Wishing the absent one home again.
Watching for Pa!
Watching for Pa!
Sitting by the window,
Watching for Pa!
Watching for Pa!
Watching for Pa!
Sitting by the window,
Watching for Pa!
Now there are shouts from the window seat;
There is a patter of childish feet;
Gaily they rush through the lighted hall --
"Coming at last" is the joyful call.
Watching for Pa!
Watching for Pa!
Standing on the doorstep,
Watching for Pa!
Watching for Pa!
Watching for Pa!
Standing on the doorstep,
Watching for Pa!

Kashka From Baghdad
Kashka from baghdad
Lives in sin, they say,
With another man,
But no one knows who.
Old friends never call there.
Some wonder if lifes
Inside at all--
If theres life inside at all.
But we know the lady who rents the room.
She catches them calling a la lune.
At night
Theyre seen
Laughing,
Loving.
They know
The way
To be
Happy.
They never go for walks.
Maybe its because
The moons not bright enough.
Theres light in love, you see.
I watch their shadows,
Tall and slim,
In the window opposite.
I long to be with them.
cause when all the alley-cats come out,
You can hear music from kashkas house.
At night
Theyre seen
Laughing,
Loving.
They know
The way
To be
Happy.
Watching every night.*
Dont you know theyre seen?
Wont you let me laugh?
Let me in your love.
Watching every night.
Dont you know theyre seen?
Wont you let me laugh?
Let me in your love.
Watching every night.
Dont you know theyre seen?
Wont you let me laugh?
Let me in your love.
Watching every night.
Dont you know theyre seen?
Wont you let me laugh?

Time Of Year
Christmas is the time of year
That we become as one
Tears of joy
Heart filled with love
Cause Christmas time has begun
There is nowhere else I would rather be
My family's here with me
Even though some of them are watching from above
I feel their love for me
Christmas is the time of year
You give your very last
Just to see that smiling face on someone that you love
And there is nowhere else I would rather be
My family's here with me
Even though some of them are watching from above
I feel their love for me
Christmas is the time of year
We want our loved ones to be here with us
And when we know they're far away
We try to make it so they're here to stay
Cause there is nowhere else I would rather be
My family's here with me
Even though some of them are watching from above
I feel their love for me
Christmas is the time of year
When lovers hold each other tight
From one kiss that let you know
We're glad to be together on this night
And there is nowhere else I would rather be
My family's here with me
Even though some of them are watching from above
I feel their love for me
Merry Christmas!

Spending My Time
Whats the time?
Seems its already morning.
I see the sky, its so beautiful and blue.
The tvs on but the only thing showing
Is a picture of you.
Oh I get up and make myself some coffee.
I try to read a bit but the storys too thin.
I thank the lord above
Youre not here to see me in this shape Im in.
Spending my time,
Watching the days go by.
Feeling so small,
I stare at the wall,
Hoping that you think of me too.
Im spending my time.
I try to call but I dont know what to tell you.
I leave a kiss on your answering machine.
Oh help me please,
Is there someone who can make me
Wake up from this dream?
Spending my time,
Watching the days go by.
Feeling so small,
I stare at the wall,
Hoping that you are missing me too.
Im spending my time,
Watching the sun go down.
I fall asleep to the sound
Of tears of a clown,
A prayer gone blind.
Im spending my time
My friends keep telling me:
Hey, life will go on,
Time will make sure Ill get over you.
This silly game of love -
You play, you win only to lose.
Im spending my time,
Watching the days go by.
Feeling so small,
I stare at the wall,
Hoping that you think of me too.
Im spending my time.
Im spending my time,
Watching the sun go down.
I fall asleep to the sound
Of tears of a clown,
A prayer gone blind.
Im spending my time.

Angels
Take this man to prison, the man heard herod say,
And then four squads of soldiers came and carried him away.
Chained up between two watchmen, peter tried to sleep,
But beyond the walls an endless prayer was lifting for his keep.
Then a light cut through the darkness of a lonely prison cell,
And the chains that bound the man of God just opened up and fell,
And running to his people before the break of day,
There was only one thing on his mind, only one thing to say:
Angels watching over me, every move I make,
Angels watching over me!
Angels watching over me, every step I take,
Angels watching over me!
God only knows the times my life was threatened just today.
A reckless car ran out of gas before it ran my way.
Near misses all around me, accidents unknown,
Though I never see with human eyes the hands that lead me home.
But I know theyre all around me all day and through the night.
When the enemy is closing in, I know sometimes they fight
To keep my fight from falling, Ill never turn away.
If youre asking whats protecting me then youre gonna hear me say:
Got his angels watching over me, every move I make,
Angles watching over me!
Angels watching over me, every step I take,
Angels watching over me....
Angels watching over me....
Angels watching over me.
Got his angels watching over me, every move I make,
Angels watching over me!
Angels watching over me, every step I take,
Angels watching over me!
Angels watching over me,
Angels watching over me,
Angels watching over me,
Angels watching over me!
Though I never see with human eyes the hands that lead me home....

Mom, I love you so much
Mom, I love you so much
As a baby when I needed to be fed
You were there
Mom, I love you so much
When I wanted someone to read me bed time story
You were there
Mom, I love you so much
When I was upset
You were there
Mom, I love you so much
When I need help
You are there
Mom, I love you so much
When I need support
You are there
Mom, I love you so much
You are always there for me
But when you are not
I know you will always be watching over me
Keeping me safe and sane
I wish you will always be here
But I know that is impossible
When we part it won’t be he last time we meet
We will be joined again somewhere better
Mom, I love you so much
For my loving mother Helen
who has always been there

Comforting paranoia
Big brother is watching
Everything we do, keeping track of everything we know
He sees you at your best, at your worst, and in the privacy of your own home
Big brother is watching...and waiting for a chance to step in
At the moment you need him, when the lights are quite dim
Big brother will comfort you, relieve you of sin, he will hold you and love you through thick and through thin
He wants you to succeed and be happy, to win.
Big brother isn't watching to punish you when you are bad or push you into following his plan, not allowing bad
Big brother is watching,
To save you from sin
To help you through life
To succeed and to win
To give you a hand when you seem bound within
To help you return and live with him,
Big brother is watching.

Watching For Shapes
Written by ricky & marty wilde
Influences now are things that are all around me
Changing shape as they move around in an open mind
Coloured in by the images I find
Im just watching for shapes that grow
Im just watching for shapes that grow
(watching for shapes that grow)
Like electric sparks they danced by an open mirror
Closing doors never looking round but its not goodbye
Theyll be there till Im taken out I know
Im just watching for shapes that grow
Im just watching for shapes that grow
(watching for shapes that grow)
In my mind theres a space thats full of painted pictures
Things I did that I went through, but cant recall
Now and then theres a flash of the unknown
Im just watching for shapes that grow
Im just watching for shapes that grow
(watching for shapes that grow)
(watching for shapes that grow)
(watching for shapes that grow)

Poppy Brown and I
We've spent a lot of time together
Poppy Brown and I,
Sitting by the window-ledge
Staring at the sky;
Keeping silent vigil watching
Up and down the street,
Passing many moments, Listening for her feet.
We've spent a lot of time together
Poppy Brown and I,
Playing out the hours
Passing slowly by;
Keeping silent company,
Quiet as the moon,
Waiting for our loved one,
Hoping she'll come soon.
We've spent a lot of time together
Poppy Brown and I,
Loving at the window-ledge
Waiting by and by;
Keeping silent vigil,
Playing out the night,
Looking to each other,
A kiss and then a fight.
We've spent a lot of time together
Poppy Brown and I,
Waiting out the hours
Willing them to fly;
Keeping silent company,
Our mutual request:
The imminent arrival of
The one we love the best.

Private Eyes
Lyrics & music: daryl hall, warren pash, sara allen, janna allen
I see you, you see me
Watch you blowin the lines when youre making a scene
Oh girl, youve got to know
What my head overlooks
The senses will show to my heart
When its watching for lies
You cant escape my
Private eyes
Theyre watching you
They see your every move
Private eyes
Theyre watching you
Private eyes
Theyre watching you watching you watching you watching you
You play with words you play with love
You can twist it around baby that aint enough
Cause girl Im gonna know
If youre letting me in or letting me go
Dont lie when youre hurting inside
cause you cant escape my
Private eyes
Theyre watching you
They see your every move
Private eyes
Theyre watching you
Private eyes
Theyre watching you watching you watching you watching you
Why you try to put up a front for me
Im a spy but on your side you see
Slip on, into any disguise
Ill still know you
Look into my private eyes

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

Whoevers Watchin
Im not wasting my time on earthly longing
Let that glory leave me be
Im just tasting my life story
Just a page in history
Chorus:
Whoevers watching
Must be watching over me
Whoevers watching
Must be watching over me
Well Im not hurting like I used to
I got lucky cant you see
Love came searching
It could choose you
Loves the greatest victory
Repeat chorus
I always look to the sky
And held my head high
Had to be what I had to be
Till the day that I die
Yes I wonder why
Somebodys watching
Watching over me
Repeat chorus (first two lines)
Well if you know me
You know Ive squandered
Everything thats dear to me
Still I stand here in total wonder
How its all come back to me

Beach Chairs
Sitting on the beach chairs
watching the setting sun
holding hands and reminiscing
how it all begun
Sitting on the beach chairs
watching the ships out on the sea
holding hands and smiling
together we're meant to be
Sitting on the beach chairs
watching people walking past
holding hands and knowing
that our love will always last
Sitting on the beach chairs
watching the waves along the shore
holding hands we realize
our love is stronger than before
Sitting on the beach chairs
watching the changing tide
holding hands with happiness
to be by each others side
Sitting on the beach chairs
watching the sunrise
holding hands with tears of joy
there are no more good-byes

Groove With You

Oh, Ive been thinking of you
and youve been thinking of me.
Oh, Ill give all that I have
If youll give all that I need.
And oh, oh, oh, lets be fair.
And I think its time we cleared the air.
Ive been watching you, youve been watching me.
You know Ive been wantin to groove with you.
Girl, speak your mind.
Groove with you.
You been thinking all of this time.
Groove with you.
Aw baby what I wouldnt do.
Groove with you.
Just spending my days with you.
Oh, love is all in your eyes,
love fire is burning for me.
You stay all in my mind.
Oh woman, its easy to see.
Oh, lets be fair
You know its time we cleared the air
Youve been watching me, Ive been watching you.
You know, you know,
Groove with you.
Oh I want a groove, I want a groove
Groove with you.
Ive been thinking, youve been thinking, thinking of me.
Groove with you.
Oh what I wouldnt do to groove with you.
Groove with you.
Youve been watching, I been wathcing watching you
Groove with you
And every chance I get, from the first time we meet
I want a groove with you.

Watching The Wildlife
(gill/johnson/nash/otoole)
Watching the wildlife
On my way home, the state of rome
People gliding on the floor
Pleased with life not needing more
Sunset on the river
People go home in the rain
Familiar faces on the train
Running scared, and staying sane
If you live by the sword
Well thats your own reward
So dont walk with me
Watching the wildlife
The beast within you
Eats your heart out
Get free from hate and get in love
Boys in the backyard
The girls are hanging out the lines
Washing the day, wash your troubles away
Its game we have to play
Ghosts are chasing you round
Things that happen in the past
Dont make that mistake again
The sun beats down the streets of passion
If you live by the sword
Well thats your own reward
So dont talk with me
Watching the wildlife
The beast within you
Eats your heart out
Get free from hate and get in love
Your own worst enemy
Get free from hate and get in love
If you live by the sword
Watching the wildlife
Watching you
The beast within you too
Watching the wildlife
Get in love, get in love
Watching the wildlife
We all live in a dream in home
We watch tv and drive a car
We go outside, but not too far
Watching the wildlife
We walk the water like a sun
Living cuts you like a knife
Living here watching the wildlife
Get in love, get in love

Every step you take

How my poor heart aches
With every step you take

Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake

Since youve gone I been lost without a trace
I dream at night I can only see your face
I look around but its you I cant replace
