She's Leavin'
When I think about the time that I sat crying in my beer
Jukebox pounding misery from ear to ear
I know I'd tell myself I'm better off without you here
But I'm looking for beginnings when the end is always near.
She's leavin' in the morning sing a sad song for me
Keeping me in the dark don't know how long it will be
But I've heard that tune before she says she's gotta be free
But I know that's not true and that's what's bothering me.
Anywhere you look it's everywhere and all around
It's the blues they keep singing lord
And it's bound to get you down
But the melody can move you in a way to ease the pain
And it won't be long before you're on your feet again
I'd be alright if she'd just make up her mind
I don't know why but I forgive her, time after time...

Singing A Love Song
Well, I may not get applause every night when I sing,
And I may not hear the cheers of a crowd.
And my voice cant always rise to make the mountains ring,
And at times I cant even sing out aloud.
But youve got me singing a love song,
Melody and rhyme;
It moves me every time.
Youve got me singing a love song,
And it keeps you on my mind, ooooh, on my mind.
Feelin fine all the time.
It keeps you on my mind.
Sometimes my voice is strained and the strings wont hold a tune.
My back is sore, and Im just too tired to try,
And I dont want to work or rest or think of you,
Or face the world or even close my eyes.
But youve got me singing a love song,
Melody and rhyme;
It moves me every time; I know that,
Youve got me singing a love song,
And it keeps you on my mind, ooooh, on my mind.
Feelin fine all the time.
It keeps you on my mind.
My broken dreams, they dont bother me,
And hard times in life I dont mind.
I think of things that Id rather see,
And you give me piece of mind.
Hard times will come and sometimes I wont wanna sing,
But Ill sing with all the love that I can find.
And Im happy there to hear me in the silence of my song.
Im gonna sing for you until the end of time.
cause youve got me singin a love song,
Melody and rhyme;
It moves me every time.
Youve got me singing a love song,
And it keeps you on my mind, ooooh, on my mind.
Feelin fine all the time.
It keeps you on my mind.
And it keeps you on my mind.
Youve got me singin a love song.
And it keeps you on my mind.
Youve got me singin a love song....

Just As Long As Were Together

Hey Mister, Thats Me Up On The Jukebox
Hey mister, thats me up on the jukebox

Well, Ill cry everytime that you slip in one more dime
And let the boy sing the sad one, one more time
Southern california thats as blue as the boy can be
Blue as the deep blue sea
Wont you listen to me now
I need your golden gated cities like a hole in the head
Just like a hole in the head, Im free
Hey mister, thats me up on the jukebox

Well, Ill cry everytime that you slip in one more dime
And let the boy sing the sad one, one more time
I do believe Im headed home
Hey mister, cant you see that Im as dry as a bone
I think Ill spend some time alone
Yes, unless youve found a way of squeezing water from a stone
Let the doctor and the lawyer do as much as they can
Let the springtime begin
Let the boy become a man
I done wasted too much time just to sing you this sad song
I done been this lonesome picker a little too long
Hey mister, thats me up on the jukebox

Well, Ill cry everytime that youre up and slip in one more dime
And let the boy sing the sad one, one more time
Well, Ive been spreading myself thin these days

A New Fix For 76
And now that psychedelias gone when the hell ya gonna face reality boy
We cant be that asinine to think that nineteen sixty nine was the way it should be
Theres a new moon with an old shine
So its time to open your heart as wide as you see
Sing a new song of mobility
Get a new fix for seventy six
And now whether our hairs short or long
The issue is not really if its right or wrong
But as long as its clean .... right
Ive gotta realize that our new found philosophies
Were only synthesized in the delusion of a flowerchild scene
Theres a new star in an old space
So its time you open your soul and set yourself free
Sing a new song of totality
Get a new fix for seventy six
So we thought we were cool and free
But then our heros blew their minds
With x and ys and lsd oh what a sin
Friend we gotta comprehend and we gotta learn from the past
And not dwell in it again and again and again
Hold one hand with time
And open your mind naturally
Sing a new song of vitality
Get a new fix for seventy six

When I Will Sing My Own Song
A time may come when i'll sing my own song,
And that time is coming fast.
I'll sing my own song,
Perhaps a lyrical song coloured with joy,
And maybe a dirge bursting with sorrow
A time will come then i'll sing my own song,
A song in praise of fallen heroes,
A song in huge honour of hunger
A song for incessant insecurity,
A song of unemployment.
One thing i don't know
Is whether the church will sing to this song,
And dance to its tunes, or make it
A song for offering of offerings
I don't know whether to make it secular;
If it be ungodly, perhaps it may be a hit.
When i'll sing my own song
Children will hop over hills in awe;
Mothers will sing its tune mutely,
And fathers will remain unsure whether to join
Not long, i will sing a song.
I will sing to my own song,
Then the world know i desired peace,
And love, and accord.
Then the world will know
I'm tired of wanton carnages,
And famines that breed hunger,
And being quagmired by floods,
And being mixed in hysteria
Of dirty and ethnical politics!
When i'll sing my own song,
I know it'll be long overdue.
It may never be heard anywhere
It may remain deep rooted within my heart;
Or i may never have money
To pay for its acceptance by the people!

Bring Back The Time
You sit alone in your room;
your mind wanders
to the sound of a tune.
A tune that was a hit
so long ago when you were young.
You remember the first time you heard it,
and where you were at the time.
Suddenly a memory springs
from the back of your mind.
Coloured lights and dancing feet
move across your mind.
Your wish now is
bring back the time.
Bring back the days
you remember so well.
Days when there was
a new dance craze every week,
when groups played instruments
before the synthesiser was born,
when songs had lyrics
that everyone could sing
and a tune everyone could hum.
Bring back the teenage time
before the years flew away.
Now in reality I sit and smile,
wishfully thinking I could
bring back the time.

Farewell
by Bob Dylan
Oh it's fare thee well my darlin' true,
I'm leavin' in the first hour of the morn.
I'm bound off for the bay of Mexico
Or maybe the coast of Californ.
So it's fare thee well my own true love,
We'll meet another day, another time.
It ain't the leavin'
That's a-grievin' me
But my true love who's bound to stay behind.
Oh the weather is against me and the wind blows hard
And the rain she's a-turnin' into hail.
I still might strike it lucky on a highway goin' west,
Though I'm travelin' on a path beaten trail.
So it's fare thee well my own true love,
We'll meet another day, another time.
It ain't the leavin'
That's a-grievin' me
But my true love who's bound to stay behind.
I will write you a letter from time to time,
As I'm ramblin' you can travel with me too.
With my head, my heart and my hands, my love,
I will send what I learn back home to you.
So it's fare thee well my own true love,
We'll meet another day, another time.
It ain't the leavin'
That's a-grievin' me
But my true love who's bound to stay behind.
I will tell you of the laughter and of troubles,
Be them somebody else's or my own.
With my hands in my pockets and my coat collar high,
I will travel unnoticed and unknown.
So it's fare thee well my own true love,
We'll meet another day, another time.
It ain't the leavin'
That's a-grievin' me
But my true love who's bound to stay behind.
I've heard tell of a town where I might as well be bound,
It's down around the old Mexican plains.
They say that the people are all friendly there
And all they ask of you is your name.
So it's fare thee well my own true love,
We'll meet another day, another time.
It ain't the leavin'
That's a-grievin' me
But my true love who's bound to stay behind.

Move On
Ive been in and out of favour with lady luck
I gotta tell you
Ive seen things I never wanted to see
Ive got to get back on my feet
I feel like Ive been sleeping
Sweet, sweet time
Has been a real good friend of mine
Waiting for that change of season
Oh the winters been so long
Searching for that rhyme or reason
Youve just got to
Move on
Hold it together, move on
Lifes so short, move on
Only time will set you free
Just like me
You put your fears behind you
Better get yourself where you wanna be
I think of all the days and nights I spent crying
And I move on
Ive been in and out of favour with love
Because I gotta tell you
Ive been things I never wanted to be
And then some angel called me up
He told me I was sleeping
Said dont waste time
cos even angels say goodbye
Waiting for that change of season
Oh the winters been so long
Searching for that rhyme or reason
Youve just got to
Move on
Hold it together, move on
Lifes so short, move on
Only time will set you free
Just like me
You put your tears behind you
Better get yourself where you wanna be
I think of all the days and nights I spent crying
Endlessly
And oh, there goes another season
Getting hard to find a decent song to play
But oh, I guess I got my reasons
Everybody thinks Im doing a.o.k.
They ought to know by now
Move on
Hold it together, move on
Lifes so short, move on
Only time will set you free
Just like me
And life you wont wait for me
You put your tears behind you
Better get yourself where you wanna be
I think of all the days and nights I spent crying
Until my angel set me free
Im gonna be lucky in love someday

You've Been In Love
(Released as B-side of 'I Wish It Would Rain Down' single, 1990)
You've been in love that little bit too long
You've been in love and I think that you know
You've been in love it's time to move on
You've been in love and it's starting to show
She's getting to used to your face, getting too used to your smile
She's saying the same things every morning before you leave her
You'd better run, find out what's going through her mind
You'd better look out, cos he's not far behind
You've been in love that little bit too long
You've been in love and I think that you know
You've been in love it's time to move on
You've been in love and it's starting to show
Suddenly she's trying to please you, you start to think she's acting strange
And after all these years she wears make-up in the morning
You'd better run, find out what's going through her mind
You'd better look out, cos he's not far behind
Did you really believe she's doing it all for you?
Oh, can't you see, there's somebody else
You never showed it, you should have known it
You've been in love, yeah you've been in love
You've been in love, yeah you've been in love
Going round singing all those love songs, songs you haven't heard for years
You're gonna have to ask her why she's so happy
You'd better run, find out what's going through her mind.
But it may be too late, and I know why
You've been in love that little bit too long
You've been in love and I think that you know
You've been in love it's time to move on
You've been in love and it's starting to show
You've been in love that little bit too long
You've been in love, I think that you know
You've been in love it's time to move on
You've been in love and it's starting to show
To show, show, you've been in love, oh oh

Imperfect Song
It may not be a misery to sing at all,
To sing life's imperfect song,
For if us mortals love or sing,
It is what keeps us from our perfect dream
Life's imperfect song goes on day by day,
But our grief may be set best that way,
As if a music box lost its key,
That's is my life long song of Misery
Misery leaves you like a broken frame,
Guilt and sorrow swallows the pain,
You run from it, but knowing that you can't hide,
Until, the day you run insane
As time passes, I watch you grow,
Still refusing to sing of tomorrow,
Your life long song, now complete,
My child don't wish, go to sleep.
Last Time Ill Ever Sing The Blues

Published by northern goody two tunes, ltd./capac - ascap
Its the last time Ill ever sing the blues
Ive made my mind up, Ive had enough, Im through with you
You know it, Im gonna walk away
Dont need it anymore, its time I had my say
We used to rock and roll and carry on
We used to laugh and play the fool, but its gettin me down
The last time, the last time, Ill ever sing the blues
Its the last time, I aint lyin
Its the last time, the last time, Ill sing the blues for you
Its the last time, its true
Ill make it quite clear, its time to face the news
I cried my heart out, I sang the blues for you
But I wont worry, it doesnt mean a thing
Cause once Im gone girl, theres no one you can blame
We used to rock and roll and carry on
We used to laugh and play the fool, but its gettin me down
Its the last time, the last time, Ill ever sing the blues
Its the last time, the last time, baby I aint lyin
Its the last time, the last time, Im singin the blues for you
Its the last time, baby Im through
Im feelin better now that Im sure
After tonight girl, I wont see you anymore
I tried to make it, I tried to believe
But all you ever did was lie and deceive
We used to rock and roll and carry on
We used to laugh and play the fool, but its gettin me down
Its the last time, the last time, Ill ever sing the blues

Its been a long time...
I miss you so and more.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
Hot days with freezing nights.
Its been a long time...
Sunburned face, mosquito bites.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
Had a real bad day.
Its been a long time...
Lost some soldiers today.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
I suffer everyday.
Its been a long time...
For me to be away.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
For me to be alone.
Its been a long time...
No talking on the telephone.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
Since you heard me say...
Baby, my sweet darling...
I'm leaving Iraq today!

Farewell Song
Oh, the last time that i saw you
You know you didn't say a word.
And i knew, honey as i looked into your eyes
That my feelings, lord, they'd never been heard.
Well, i'm talkin' to you about love,
Did you hear me ? i said love.
Yeah, because it's got to be such a long, long, long way
From denyin', from denyin'.
And i say you don't say no, no, no, to me no more.
And i believed in you all the time,
Honey, until i found out you know that i was so wrong.
I wanted to try and build a life with you,
I guess i should've known it, i guess i should've known it all along.
Let me hold you just once
Honey i'll ask you just once more
Because it's got to be such a long, long way from cryin'
And i been cryin'
And i got tears in my eyes,
Yeah, but don't you know when you love somebody, have some pressures
There can never, never, never be any secret,
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
You gonna have to pay your dues
And sometimes, honey, sometimes you're bound to lose.
Yeah, but that's the way
You're gonna learn, learn, learn to love people, yeah.
Oh god, i wish i could explain it myself,
'cause i know that it's my fault, dear.
It's so easy to hurt you, darling,
It's so hard, i guess it's hard not to do.
And i know you showed me a new life
And you'll always, yeah you'll always be my friend.
Baby i don't think that i can keep from cryin'
And i'll be tryin' and i been cryin' for you, babe,
Yes i have now.
Well, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
What would i do without you child ?
I'm afraid i can't say
But i hope honey that when you remember,
Lord, it'll be, it'll be such a sunny day
Now, now, now, now, good-bye,
And i'll see you sometime
And don't be worried, everything's just fine
Baby i don't think
That i can keep from dyin'
And i've been dyin'.
I said now every day i got a little bit, babe,
I said now every day i lose me someone in my heart
I've been lonely, lonely, look around baby
I said i've been lonely, lonely, i've been searchin' for you,
And i got to find, honey have to find my baby
I gotta find, i gotta want it, gotta need it,
'cause hear me baby, baby, talk about my baby
Hear me baby, baby, whoa yeah, my baby,
Hear me baby, baby, talk about my baby
Won't you help me now,
Won't you help me now,
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta
Whoa yeah, i gotta
I gotta leave you, baby, i can't help myself
I gotta leave you, baby, i got to, you know
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta
Whoa yeah, i gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta
Whoaa ... lord, lord lord lord!!
Whoaa ... lord, lord lord lord!!
