Stuff & Nonsense
Disobey my own decisions
I deserve all your suspicions
First its yes and then its no
I dilly dally down to you, oh
But Ive got no secrets that I battle in my sleep
I wont make promises to you that I cant keep
And you know that I love you
Here and now not forever
I can give you the present
I dont know about the future
Thats all stuff and nonsense
I once lived for the future
Everyday was one day closer
Greener on the other side
Yes I believe before I met you
I assumed that your love was brighter than the stars in my eyes
Now I know how and when I know where and why
And you know that I love you
Here and now not forever
I can give you the present
I dont know about the future
Thats all stuff and nonsense

Features of the Future
I'm closer to the future
Than I was yesterday.
The highway of the future
Is in each break of day.
I frame my future
By the decisions I make.
I encounter the future
If diligent steps I take.
Plans for the future
I made in the past.
Today I face the future
Yet it won't last.
Depending on the future
Is so inefficient.
Because the so-called future
Is vague and transcient!
'you'll live well in the future
if the present is well lived! ! '

Baby Jane
(stewart, davis)
Baby jane dont leave me hanging on the line
I knew you when you had no one to talk to
Now youre moving in high society
Dont forget I know secrets about you
I used to think you were on my side
But now Im no longer sure
I wish I knew what I know now before
When I give my heart again
I know its gonna last forever
No one tell me where or when
I know its gonna last forever
Baby jane dont it make you feel sad
Just when I thought that we were winning
You and I were so close in every way
Dont time fly when youre loving and laughing
Ive said goodbye so many times
The situation aint all that new
Optimisms my best defense
Ill get through without you
When I give my heart again
I know its gonna last forever
No one tell me where or when
I know its gonna last forever
I wont be that dumb again
I know its gotta last forever
When I fall in love again
I know its gonna last forever
Baby jane Ive said all I want to say
Go your own way dont think twice about me
Cause Ive got ideas and plans of my own
So long darlin Ill miss you believe me
The lesson learned was so hard to swallow
But I know that Ill survive
Im gonna take a good look at myself and cry
When I give my heart again
I know its gonna last forever
No one tell me where or when
I know its gonna last forever
When I fall in love next time
I know its gonna last forever
I wont be that dumb again
I know itll last forever

Forever and a day
You know my past
It's coming out bit by bit
I don't know if you'll run away
Or shut a blind eye
Because you mean I love you?
If you loved me you would
Forget my past
Know my future
And love the present
I hope you turn a blind eye
Because I want to be with you always
Your my future and my present
I want to spend forever in your arms
I want to be with you always
I want to be with you
Forever and a day

Dimension Merge
For us the past has gone and the present moves on
into the yesterday of a future’s present time.
Despite living in the future’s past this will not last,
present and future will very soon combine.
Future or dimension, to some a misapprehension,
but they are one in the same.
If there’s more than one, they will follow on
to leave one, with it’s present name.
On merging we’ll realise we’ve no future to recognise,
and the past and present is all we’ll know.
The past will still be renewed, with each day used,
but the future will mean only tomorrow.

Time
Who knows about the future? Who knows what we'll find?
What good and bad things are in store by chance or design?
What can be done today to alter the future's course?
If truth be known you alone rule effects of its force.
Today at work or play only the present exists.
A wise world has no room for a past-present-future tryst.
Each future hour, joyful or dour, will never arrive.
The future will be the future as long as you're alive
The past is gone forever never to steal today's times,
Unless could-have-been memories commit awful crimes.
So love and live each instant of each and every day.
You have so little time as each moment passes away.

My Baby Girl
you are my first baby girl
and have been for two months
but as you lay by my side
thoughts grow wildly
about your past
present and
future
I can not change what as already happened
but for now I am trying
to make your life the best it can be
I hope I’m doing the right thing
for then and only then
will I start to
change your future
and mine
if everything goes my way
then we wont be apart for more then
a cupule of years at a time
but baby girl no matter
if I’m a million miles away
you’ll away be
as close as skin
when you start to miss me
and I you
remember I’m already there
with you
and your there with me
I’ll always be with you
in your heart
in your sole
as you are in mine
no matter if I bye another puppy
I’ll always love you
no one or nothing
can or will
ever take that away
my love for you in each and every day
will reach bran new heights
you can make sure I’ll always love you
even after you die
you will always and forever
be my baby girl
and I’ll always and forever
be your mommy

You Can Have the Future
You Can Have the Future
by Alex Lewis
The present is malicious.
difficulty=delicious
We will to Hell be sent
If this is only the present.
What is the future if this is present?
Peace must have come and went.
Why should mankind advance?
He started on his last chance.
The present is so bad
That the years just add and Add.
In the future, what will become?
We cannot reverse what is done.
You can have the future.
You can have the future.
Take it far away.
It'll last a day.
Never let me see it again.
wHAT, wHERE, wHEN.
You can have the future.

Thank You For The Promises
Thank you for the promises we make
I know I cant complain
I think I did all right
No failures are in sight
Only now and then
Id like to reminisce
Do you remember when
Even if were angels we cant ask
To wander through the past
The future is our goal
The night is black as coal
If I could pay the price
Id like to love you once
Id love to love you twice
Thanks
We cannot say enough
The road is sometimes rough
But we can get along
The going will get tough
But we wont be afraid
Of the promises we made
Thank you for the promises you keep
When I am fast asleep
To be where we belong
Is all that I can ask
We can do it in the shade
As long as I have you
And the promises we made
Thank you for the promises we break
If you made a clean mistake
Well thats what loves about
No need to stand and shout
The truth is in your eyes
The answer lies within
No need to criticize
Thanks
For the promises at hand
The abuse that we must stand
Is often heaven sent
They may not pay the rent
You never can be sure
When promises get bent
Thank you for the promises that live
This is all that I can give
Forever in my mind
To leave the past behind
And seal it with a kiss
Forever in my soul
I will remember this

Future Is Promises
I saw him today at the station
There was something on his mind
I felt I was on the devils mission
Trying to steal him from a friend
I know it hurts you
And you cant ask why
I know it hurts you
Takes a train to cry
Your only future is promises
For so many years
Your only future is promises
I know you can make it if you try
Youve been living life in the past
Im gonna reach out Im gonna grab your heart
Youve been living life in the eyes of a stranger
Youve gotta free your mind
Cause I want to get nearer
Your only future is promises
For so many years
Your only future is promises
I know you can make it if you try
Take the chance and make the move
But dont think that I will approve
For once Ive finally realised
Being with her wasted your life
Your only future is promises
For so many years
Your only future is promises
I know you can make it if you try
Your only future is promises
For so many years
Your only future is promises

The Right Stuff
I was standing at 7:15 waiting for my babys car
Just then out stepped the driver of a limousine
And asked if I was going far
I said Ive got my mind made up
I dont wanna leave him baby cause its clear to me
That its just to tough to find another lover like mine
With the right stuff
The right stuff baby
I dont wanna miss out on the right stuff
Ooh no with mr. right
Just friday bout a week ago
This fellow called me on the phone
And said i live in paris, dont you want to go
I know you must be all alone
Well, itll take more than a fancy trip
Or a chauffeured limousine
Cause I aint never seen no one
Who could give me love like this
The other fellows dont compare
To the right stuff
The right stuff baby
I dont wanna miss out on the right stuff
Ooh no with mr. right
Sing
Hes the only to give me that lovin
Cause next to him there is no other one
Hes very sexy and oh so sweet
And he knocks me off my feet
Say it
I need the right stuff
I got to have the right stuff
I dont wanna miss out on the right stuff

Promises
Here by my side
Are you close enough to take me to your paradise
Or am I going down to my loneliness
Could you be loving me more or less
Do you know
Are you ready for the feeling
Can you learn to grow
Out in a world of fears we , were hanging on
We come together , we find , the sun
You all over me , all over
Youre the light
I am the love dont let me die away
I am forever we are born to make
Promises to be there
Promises to be there
Life, where the few may not ever find a heaven
I could be with you
Out in a world where nights they dont ever end
We got each other my love , my life, my friend
You all over me , all over
Youre the light
I am the love dont let me die away
I am forever we are born to make
Promises to love me
Promises to love me
Out in a world where nights they dont ever end
We got each other my love, my life, my friend
You all over me , all over
Youre the light
I am the love dont let me die away
We are forever we are born to make
Promises to be there
Promises to be there
I am the love dont let me die away
I am forever we are born to make
Promises to be there

Take Me For A Little While
(martin / trader)
Ive been trying
To make you love me
But everything I try
Just takes you further from me
You dont love me, oh no
So you treat me cruel
But no matter how you hurt me
Ill always be your fool
But if you dont want me forever
And if you dont need me forever
And if you cant love me forever
Take me for a little while
So I can hold you, baby
So I can make you want me
I gotta stop it
There should be a law
cause everytime you put me down
I love you more
And I feel so helpless
And it aint funny
cause deep down inside I know
Youre never gonna love me
But if you dont want me forever
And if you dont need me forever
And if you cant love me forever
Take me for a little while
So I can hold you, baby
So I can make you want me
I got to have you baby
Dont you know anyway you want me Im yours
Wont you have me baby?
Anyway you want me Im yours
Anything you want me to do

IF I Could Skip A Few Years Ahead
when i get in to the moment
i get deep into the moment
and when im deep in the moment
im in the future
and when im in the future
i want whats in my presents
i dont live for whats now
cause whats today doesnt have my name on it
but whats in the future i can put my name on it
but not only my name
i can put a ring on it
a ring that symbolize
my life and want is my desire
for todays present day
yes i rush because today is
just a tall tale
tomorrow isnt promise
but if i put a destination on life
into the future
i will get there
because today is not my friend
the future is my answer
my answer of life
god told this is the man i am
and im gonna live that man
one day................this is why i only to see the future
cause i know love dont stop hear today
the love is beyond today
and beyond my destination in the future
but i feel love today
its just that the love that in the future
sees me in todays world
and im desting to be that love

Look to the Future
Look to the future
Detach from the past
Let the people go
Start a new this time
Look to the future
Love like it’ll last
Dream like it’s forever
No move envy
Look to the future
Have the star life
Learn from others
Take it in
Look to the future
Be proud with yourself
No more lies
No more disguises
Look to the future
Solve the unresolved
Be someone’s firefly
Stop living for yourself
Look to the future
Be the person
You dream to be
Stop fantasizing
Look to the future
It’s only gets brighter
From here on out
Detach from the past
Look to the future

And you dont know where to go to
Come and take a trip with me

Forever In Love
Lately my head has been spinning girl
Cant bear the thought of you not in my world
I may have had my problems in the past
But this time I swear that well make it last
Cause girl I know what you want, I know what you need
And I swear with my hand on my heart
Baby just look in my eyes and there you will see
How much I want to make it right
Can we give it one more try before we walk away?
You and me one on one, together for love
Can we give it one more try before we walk away?
Girl, to me we should forever be in love
Baby come with me and take my hand
Lets take an hour to reminisce and plan our future by the stars above
Therell be plenty of affection and a whole lot of love
Cause girl you are my queen youre my everything
And I swear youre the air that I breathe
Baby, how could I go on?
No doubt youre the reason my love is so strong
Can we give it one more try before we walk away?
You and me one on one, together for love
Can we give it one more try before we walk away?
Girl, to me we should forever be in love
Girl, when I look in your smile it touches
So deep in my heart what a joy Ive found
Please dont walk away, baby just stay right here with me

Constant Time
Time past and the future give way to this present picture,
But can somebody tell me how to recognize that gate that leads to the bed of roses,
We speak about the future like the past is a grain of sand on the shore,
Washed away by the ocean tide,
Giving way to new grains to make a portrait of the present,
These past memories stay deep in our heart like the depths of the ocean,
Though it gets washed back to shore ones in a blue moon,
Reminding us that our past is a standard measurement of our strength,
Time moves so fast making the past to fade away,
this makes us seem so secured about the present,
Forgetting the fact that our present becomes our past that was once a present from nature as a new day,
Some take the future to be a dream and a wish,
But I take my future to be what I see when I stand from the bottom of the mountain to look at the top,
And my past to be the depth of the ocean that can always be washed ashore …
The only thing I can control is my present,
Yes cos my mind controls my hands to give you a flash of what goes on in my head
Like this words i write to you was once my future and will become my past, making my future my past and my past my future..So ironical isn’t it?
Standing here I sure know 1 thing,
I will reach the top by that foot path,
Yes of course it’s not to mean that I wouldn’t fall,
But I have to break myself off my present past and walk with grace to stand where I belong,
There where I am the king of my destiny,
The past is just going to be a page of memories,
And my future will become my present making time constant in my head,
Because I stand on my past which was once my present and my present which was once my future, making time equal and constant
As I flip thru this page of life,

Got To Give It Up
Ive got to give it up Ive got to give it up
That stuff
Ive got to give it up Ive got to give it up
That stuff
Tell my mama and tell my pa
That their fine young son didnt get far
He made it to the end of a bottle
Sitting in a sleazy bar
He tried hard but his spirit broke
He tried until he nearly choked
In the end he lost his
Bottle drinking alcohol
Ive got to give it up Ive got to give it up
That stuff
Ive got to give it up Ive got to give it up
That stuff
Tell my brother I tried to write and
Put pen to paper but I was frightened
I couldnt seem to get the words out right
Right quite right
Tell my sister Im sinking slow
Now and again I powder my nose
In the end I lost my bottle
It smashed in a casbah
Ive got to give it up Ive got to give it up
That stuff
Ive got to give it up Ive got to give it up
That stuff
Ive got to give it up Ive got to give it up
That stuff
Ive got to give it up Ive got to give it up
That stuff
Ive been messing with the heavy stuff
For a time I couldnt get enough
But Im waking up and its wearing off
Junk dont take you far
Tell my mama Im coming home
In my youth Im getting older
And I think its lost control
Mama Im coming home
Ive got to give it up Ive got to give it up
That stuff
Ive got to give it up Ive got to give it up
That stuff

As God Is My Witness
Once in a lifetime the right love comes by
With no rhyme or reason, you never know why
You wake up one morning and nothings the same for you.
The kisses taste sweeter, the touch just feels right
You rush through the morning to get to the night
And then youre together and it takes your breath away.
So, hold on to your heart
Lets think forever right from the start
But loves not forever
its just for the rest of our lives.
Youre not my first love, but youll be my last
I give you my future, forgive me my past
And I know in my heart, that this is what I want to do.
If I had one life and one love
Thered be one dream for the two of us
As God is my witness, whatever you do
Dont change a thing cause I love loving you
And as God is my witness Ill give you all of my love.
So. hold on to your heart,
Girl, dont you know this felt good from the start
As God is my witness I promise you
Ill be here beside you
Whatever you do.
As God is my witness
Ill give you all my love
As God is my witness
Ill give you all my love...
