Black Night

Black night is not right,
I dont feel so bright,
I dont care to sit tight.
Maybe Ill find on the way down the line
That Im free, free to be me.
Black night is a long way from home.
I dont need a dark tree,
I dont want a rough sea,
I cant feel, I cant see.
Maybe Ill find on the way down the line
That Im free, free to be me.
Black night is a long way from home.
Black night, black night,
I dont need black night,
I cant see dark night.
Maybe Ill find on the way down the line
That Im free, free to be me.
Black night is a long way from home.

The Black of Night

The black of night
Gives most people fright
But me
I feel free
In the black of night

In the black of night
Most people loose their sight
Because they cannot see
With out their precious light
In the black of night

Most people think the black of night is not right
But to me the black of night
Is one of the most grandest sights! !

Every day I wait and wait
Waiting to see that beautiful sight
Every day I wait and wait
For the black of night

Just Another Night

(ian hunter/mick ronson)
Oh no, the fuzz, all in a line
My oh my, I think Im gonna die
And its just another night
Its just another night
Got a long black face; who goes there?
All the reefer madnessput a poor kid in jail
And its just another night
Yeah, its just another night
Oh take it easy boy or its doa
Chrome on my body and a lot of folks say
That its just another night
Hey, its just another night
Oh, its just another night on the other side of life
Head ones a saw-bones and he wrecked my chair
Said howd you like to do it in a room downstairs
And its just another night
Oh, just another night
Hey now, papa joe, dont you pull my hair
All this intrigue, it gets me out of my league
And its just another night
Its just another night
His old man spent a fortune just to get him in
But baby boy growed up just as stupid as him
And its just another night
Its just another night
Its just another night on the other side of life
Just another night, hung down slow
I dont like the hotel let me go
Hells bells! give me a chance!
This rock n roller dont wanna dance
Just another night
Just another night
Well, its just another night on the other side of life
I never felt so bad; wheres my shades?
Its gonna be a long one getting crazed
A head spoutin noodles said, what do you plead?
I said you aint got to touch a man to make a man bleed
n its just another night (on the other side)
Its just another night (on the other side)
Its just another night (on the other side)
Its just another night (on the other side)
Its just another night (on the other side)
Its just another night (on the other side)
Its just another night (on the other side)
Its just another night (on the other side)
Its just another night (on the other side)
Its just another night (on the other side)
Its just another night (on the other side)
Its just another night (on the other side)
Its just another night (on the other side)
Its just another night!

Free Through Eternity

Soft in the morning
Love without warning
Peace cause theres no disguising it
When its love you cant hide from it
Now I dont want to be the shadow
When you find your new life
I only want to hold you in the dead of night
You dont have to search for me
You dont have to set yourself free
You are free through eternity
Now I have learned to sing with a steady mind
Fill the void and pass the time
And face this ground and erase the blue
When I leave the scene it all comes down to you
You dont have to search for me
And you dont have to set yourself free
You are free through eternity
Now I know its gotta be hard to find
That blessed balance - that fine line
But turn around and bless me
Or let me go in peace
I can meet you halfway
And give you all you need
But you dont have to search for me
And you dont ever have to set yourself free
You are free
Through eternity
Eternity
Eternally
You are free eternally
You are free

black as night, Elvyra

Watch out they'll say,
she'll come and get you,
black as night Elvyra,
will take your soul,
leaving you with nothing,
you'll never see another,
as dark and souless as her,
you wait and see,
i know what they'll say of me,
black as night Elvyra

They'll say she dances,
with the devil,
that she plays with fire,
that black as nite Elvyra,
you wait and see,
i know what they'll say of me,
Black as night Elvyra

look at her they'll say,
how dark with doom and gloom,
black as night elvyra,
look at her face,
pale as pale,
her black lips,
her black eyes too,
you wait and see,
i know what they'll say of me,
Black as night Elvyra

skinny and pale they'll say,
with raven black hair to opose,
Black as night Elvyra,
she knows your secrets,
whispers from your depths,
watch out for me,
you wait and see,
I'm Black as night Elvyra

Aura

The air was dark
The moon was dark
The night was dark
The cloud was dark
The heat was dark
The stars were black
The birds were black
The eyes were black
The shadows were black
The planes were black
A sound of night
The hearts of night
A chase at night
A fall at night
No help at night
The night is night
Where is my sight
I have no sight
Your light was sight
No light no sight
No one in sight
The dark in sight
Don't call my name
What's my name
They call my name
That's not my name
Who said its my name
I have no name
You took my same
It was our same
She was our same
She's now your same
Its all the same
I'm not the same
Judas and my hand
You took my hand
'I do' my hand
You kissed my hand
You broke my hand
You fell my hand
A tear in sand
A heart in sand
A body in sand
Alone in sand
A dust in sand
At home in sand.

In Thou dark stormy Night

All alone in the night
All alone with my own fright
A lightning strikes, runs across the dead black sky
I am alone
but I wonder, why?

In Thou dark stormy night
In Thou dark stormy night
I call your name with all my might

All alone hanging in the night
My arms are sore, my soul is light
I hear the thunder, in the cloudy black sky
I am scared
but I don't know, why?

In Thou dark stormy night
in Thou dark stormy night
I call your name with all my might

Inside Your house in the night
Calling Your name with all my might
Father! Father! Why have you forsaken me?
'You must die so my people can be free.'

In Thou dark stormy night
In Thou dark stormy night
Jesus drew his final breath
Saving us all from our own eternal death

Walking On The Edge

Keep on, keep on, whispering in the night
Theres no problem if its not in sight
In the face of annihilation
We still plan futures for the children
Keep on whispering in the night
People talk its just cocktail chatter
What we say, anyway, doesnt really matter
Everybody, time is tight
Were walking on the edge
Of the long black night
From the left and from the right
Theyre walking on the edge
Of the long black night
And waiting on the big bang
Wake up, wake up, yes this is your life too
The light of spirit also burns in you
In the face of extermination
We still plan futures for the children
Get up, yes this is your life too
We talk and talk and shake our heads in wonder
Nothing that we can do
Can stop us from going under
Everybody, time is tight
Were walking on the edge
Of the long black night
From the left and from the right
Theyre walking on the edge
Of the long black night
And waiting on the big bang
I sit here and contemplate my future
And all the songs that we all sing
Dont really do a thing
Everybody, time is tight
Were walking on the edge
Of the long black night
From the left and from the right
Theyre walking on the edge
Of the long black night
And waiting on the big bang...

Psychobabble

(lead vocal - elmer gantry)
Tell you bout a dream that I have every night
Tell you bout a dream that I have every night
It aint kodachrome and it isnt black and white
Take me for a fool if you feel thats right
Well Im never on my own but theres nobody in sight
I dont know if Im scared of the lightning
Trying to reach me
I cant turn to the left or the right
Im too scared to run and Im too weak to fight
But I dont care its all psychobabble rap to me
Tell you bout a dream that I have every night
Its in dolby stereo but I never hear it right
Take me for a fool well thats alright
Well I see the way to go but there isnt any light
I dont know why Im scared of the lightning
Trying to reach me
Help me to find what I dont wanna know
Youre taking me there but I dont wanna go
I dont care its all psychobabble rap to me
Psychobabble all psychobabble
Psychobabble all psychobabble
I dont care its all psychobabble rap to me
Youre readin my mind you wont look in my eyes
You say I do things that I dont realise
But I dont care its all psychobabble rap to me
Psychobabble all psychobabble
Psychobabble all psychobabble
Youre lighting a scene thats faded to black
I threw it away cause I dont want it back
But I dont care its all psychbabble rap

Dont Let The Sun Go Down On Me

I cant light no more of your darkness
All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
Im growing tired and time stands still before me
Frozen here on the ladder of my life
Too late to save myself from falling
I took a chance to change your way of life
But you misread my meaning when I met you
Closed the door and left me blinded by the light
Oh, oh
Dont let the sun go down on me
Although I searched myself
Its always someone else I see
Im just another fragment of your life
To wander free
But losing everything
Is like the sun going down on me
Sun going down on me
I cant find all the right romantic lines
But see me once and see the way I feel
Dont discard me just because you think I mean you harm
But these cuts I have for any love
And love to help them heal, help them heal
Dont let the sun go down on me
Although I searched myself
Its always someone else I see
Im just another fragment of your life
To wander free, free
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
(dont let the sun go down on me)
Although I searched myself
Its always someone else that I see
Im just another fragment of your life
To wander free, free
But losing everything
Is like the sun going down on me
Sun going down on me
Dont let it go down on me
Dont let the sun go down on me
Dont let the sun go down on me
Dontcha let the sun go down
Go down on me, no no no
Dont let the sun
Dont let the sun go down
Dont let the sun go down on me
Dont let the sun go down
Dont let it go down, no no no no
No no no
Dont let the sun go down on me

Black Man In America

Black Man In America for to long our chains held us so tight
beaten down as far as the dust chained to the night
Black Man In America can't you see
we free now at least physically
but freedom isn't free if we still enslaved mentally
Black Man In America stand up and let your voices be heard your families are calling you because they don't deserve to be deserted or mistreated
let us be stronger than they because the greatest retalation is providing a successful way
for your black babies and mine to have a brighter day
they are calling out to you heed their cry and respond favorably to them saying here am I
Black Man In America we must continue to wage this fight and let our hands be strong and our fingers do the fightin'
Black Man In America a success you must become because without success our freedom wasn't really won
Black Man In America stand up and be heard its imperative for you to provide the light for a brighter day that your children so richly deserve
Black Man In America

The Last Letter

Words & music: michael w. smith and wayne kirkpatrick
Sitting alone up in your empty room
In the stillness of the night
Where all the many dreams that used to carry you
Are no longer in sight
You put your feelings down in black and white
A sad, disturbing reply
That you dont really want to face another night
So youre saying goodbye
But do you know that youre saying goodbye
To a lifetime
Chorus:
Well, Ive got to tell you theres another way
To be free to be complete
But, youve got to make it thru another day
And deny your own defeat (dont give in)
And Im here to tell you theres another way
To consume a hungry heart
All the love you need is just a prayer away
Let it in to where you are
Youve made it to the edge of seventeen
Thinking now youve reached the end of the line
But theres so much of life that you have never seen
Now you wont have the time
You say that you dont hear the music play
So youre ready to give up the dance
Now that nothing really matters anyway
Oh, you give up your chance
But do you know that you give up your chance
At a lifetime
Chorus:
Well, Ive got to tell you theres another way
To be free--to be complete
But youve got to make it thru another day
And deny your own defeat (dont give in)
And Im here to tell you theres another way
To consume a hungry heart
Jesus is waiting just a prayer away
Let him in to where you are
You put your feelings down in black and white
A sad, disturbing reply
That you dont really want to face another night
So youre saying goodbye
But do you know that youre saying goodbye
To a lifetime
Chorus

Black Rose

By troy seals and eddie setser
The dogs are howling at the midnight moon.
Im on my way to where the black rose blooms.
The mountains high, the night is cold.
I feel the sunshine; a black rose grows.
Together again, were as common as sin, they say,
We just walk around the stones they throw.
Night after night, we steal away to where
Love dont see no colors in the shadows,
Love dont see no colors in the shadows.
Wind in the willows, wild and warm,
Just like the woman lying here in my arms.
The waters deep, cold and still.
I love the feeling that black rose gives.
Chorus

Love dont see no colors in the shadows.

Id

One night, I fell asleep
A man dressed in black in front of me
I said whatcha going to do to me?
He said Im gonna set you free.
From all the pressures of society
From all your responsibilities,
Your bills and your job
From all the burdens that they put on you
And anything else that you want.
Now every time I look at drugs
I need a line, I need some stuff
You need a sell really quick
With anything to get me ripped
I dont care anymore
My life is such a bore
I bet that I look all fried
Until the day that I die

Take Me Home

Take that look of worry
Im an ordinary man
They dont tell me nothing
So I find out what I can
Theres a fire thats been burning
Right outside my door
I cant see but I feel it
And it helps to keep me warm
So i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
Seems so long Ive been waiting
Still dont know what for
Theres no point escaping
I dont worry anymore
I cant come out to find you
I dont like to go outside
They cant turn off my feelings
Like theyre turning off a light
But i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
Oh i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
So take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home, oh lord
Cos Ive been a prisoner all my life
And I can say to you
Take that look of worry, mines an ordinary life
Working when its daylight
And sleeping when its night
Ive got no far horizons
I dont wish upon a star
They dont think that I listen
Oh but I know who they are
And i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
Oh i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
So take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home, oh lord
Well Ive been a prisoner all my life
And I can say to you
But I dont remember
Take, take me home...

Got To Be Free

(malik pendelton/nicole johnson)
Ive got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
Ive got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
Long goodbyes, stolen glances
Cant explain all thats happened in our past
Im tired of creating lies to be alone
Im living wrong, were living wrong
More and more you make me
Afraid to come around
You take the pleasure out of being in love
And being down and down and down and down and down
For the one whos there for me
All I really want to be is free, yeah
Ive got to be free, got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
Ive got to be free, got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
You dont know why, havent got a clue
In the dark about why I am leaving you
You cant expect me to go on this way
No, I cannot stay, I will not stay
More and more you make me
Realize what I have home
Whats taboos exciting
But sometimes it just gets old
Sometimes it just gets old
For as long as I am me, boy
All I really want to be is free
Ive got to be free, got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
Ive got to be free, got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
Ive got to be free, got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
Ive got to be free, got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
Ive got to be free, got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
Ive got to be free, got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free

Aint even done with the night
Well our hearts beat like thunder

You got your hands in my back pockets
And sam cookes singin on the radio
You say that Im the boy who can make it all come true
Well Im tellinya that I dont know if I know what to do

Well I dont even know if Im doin this right
Well all right, hold tight

Well all night, all night
Well its time to go home
And I aint even done with the night
Well I dont know no good come-ons
And I dont know no cool lines

I know its burnin you up deep down inside
You say that Im the boy who can make it all come true
Well Im tellin ya that I dont know if I know what to do

Walk In The Night 2

Walk in the night
Walk in the night of peace
Walk in the serene night
And prove the theories of
The pseudo scientists wrong
Walk in the with God on your side
Walk in the night
And I swear I will be your devout
Disciple and you will be the guru
Of inter racial harmony and with you
We shall rock the bastions of
Racial supremacy
To their flimsy foundations
Walk in the night and
The dreams of your clean
Mind shall seep into
Your soul and you
Will be saved by the Lord
Take my hand
And walk with confidence
In the black star filled night
Walk into the heart of
The black night of
My black lover's night
Walk in the trouble free night
You might have heard some stories
It is the people with ultra
Motives who paint
The night black
And they blacken the good
Name of the night
And the stereotypes about
The night become entrenched
In our minds and that's
Where racism takes root
Walk in the night of the home
Of the array of the black stars
Walk in the night under
The prevailing darkness of the night
Clearly let your thoughts flow
In the deep dark forest of the night
Walk with me in the night and you
Will see that I mean you no harm
Allow my child and your child to play
Together in the night and let them
Learn to trust each other
Walk in the night with my friend's
Friend and rid your minds of the
Stereotypes of racial hatred
That you have accumulated through
The passage of time
Walk in the night hand in hand
With me and you shall not try
To see me so much in your image
And I will not let my unfounded
Fear of the pigmentation on your
Skin ruin the love and the mutual
Trust that exists between us
Walk with me in this marvelous night
And be my friend or better still
Be my lover to complete
The cycle of racial harmony
Walk in the night and see
With your uncluttered mind
The ways of the world without
The confusing things of
The day blocking your clear
Appreciation of those who
Follow a religion
That's different from your
And their racial orientation
That cannot be changed by neither
You or myself

Black And Blue

Graham Russell/Donald Cromwell/Ken Rarick/Billy Steinberg)
Blue, blue is the color of skies
Blue is the color of your eyes
Your beautiful blue eyes
Black, black is the color you wore
Black is the promise you made before you closed the door
And never told me why
CHORUS
I'm black and blue because of you
I feel like I've been beaten
You walked away from me
Leaving me all black and blue
You, you used to sleep by my side
You swore you had nothing to hide
And now there's nothing left to lose
Night, night after long, endless night
You swore you had nothing to hide
And I was so naive to believe your lies
CHORUS
Down in the depths of your soul
I hear the echo and the sigh that your secrets can not hide
They never lie to me
Night, night after long, endless night
You swore you had nothing to hide
And I was so naive to believe your lies
CHORUS
Broken in two because of you
I feel like I've been beaten
You walked away from me
Leaving me all black and blue
Black and blue because of you
I feel like I've been beaten
Yo uwalked away leaving me all black and blue
