Where Am I Going
(cy coleman / dorothy fields)
Where am I going?
And what will I find?
Whats in this grab-bag
That I call my mind?
What am I doing
Alone on the shelf?
Aint it a shame
But no-ones to blame but myself
Which way is clear
When youve lost your way
Year after year
Do I keep falling in love
For just the kick of it?
Staggering through
The thin and thick of it
Hating each old
And tired trick of it
Know what I am
Im good and sick of it
Where am I going?
Why do I care?
Run where its foul
Or run where its fair
No matter where I run
I meet myself there
Looking inside me
What do I see?
Anger and hope and doubt
What am I all about?
And where am I going?
You tell me
When youve lost your way
Year after year
Do I keep falling in love
For just the kick of it?
Staggering through
The thin and thick of it
Hating each old
And tired trick of it
Know what I am
Im good and sick of it
Where am I going?
Why do I care?
Run to the bronx
Or washington square
No matter where I run
I meet myself there
Looking inside me
What do I see?
Anger and hope and doubt
What am I all about?
And where am I going?
Where am I going?
Where?
Tell me where?

A January Fear
A sick day a sick day
I'll not make it all year
My class is all here
Down to each little sneer
A sick day a sick day
I'll not make it all year
Those cute little creatures
Have nothing to fear
A sick day a sick day
I'll not make it all year
Still knowing that teacher's
not entirely all here
A sick day a sick day
I'll not make it all year
Each little tear
Makes it perfectly clear
A sick day a sick day
I'll not make it all year
A day off is coming
And hopefully near
a sick day a sick day
I'll not make it all year
It's harder and harder
Maintaining my leer
A sick day a sick day
I'll not make it all year
Perhaps my behavior's
becoming quite queer
A sick day a sick day
I'll not make it all year
Perhaps in the morning
I'll call in and cheer
A SICK DAY A SICK DAY
I GOT A PAIN IN MY EAR
Alas...I can hear my principle sneer
With a resigning smirk easy to hear
NO SICK DAY NO SICK DAY
SORRY MY DEAR
NO SICK DAYS NO SICK DAYS

A New Year, Another Chance
One more year to change…
One less year to do it in
Start now…don’t give in
One more chance
To do it in!
You can be better…
If you try
You can feel better
That’s no lie
You can do better this year
Through thick and thin
Look up! Start now!
Don’t give in!
A new year…(you only get so many)
A new start… (only you can do it)
One more chance… (this time stick to it)
To do it in!
New year ‘s eve is near
Are you gonna stay the same
If so…shame, shame, shame! !
No war! No more fear!
You can do it! Let’s do it…
different this year! !
Stop smoking…lose weight
Be happy…Work out! …No drugs! …
Love yaw! ! lot’s of hugs

Erics Song
Sometimes I feel like I am so far away
Im lost inside my thoughts and I dont know what to say
I know I need you now more every day
I push I pull I run so far away
And Im sick and tired of living this way
Sick and tired of being alone
Sick and tired of running from your love
Sometimes I feel like I am so far away
Im lost inside my mind wont you help me find my way
And I know I need you now more every day
I push I pull I run so far away
Well Im sick sick sick and tired baby

The Missing of One
Sick in pit of stomach, sick
Thick thoughts of trips gone so quick
Photo trick, when album flicked
Sit n flick, bit by bit
Brick by brick memories flit
Only Good times tick, not kick n kick
Grap my kit, snap out of it
No longer need this shit.

Hoping Of Happy New Year
Hoping of happy New Year
The year has passed
The New Year has arrived
All the pains sadness and angriness has become past
All the happiness, sweetness and love has arrived
All the sickness, Madness and childness has gone
All the matureness, intelligence and hopes has arrived
My all the things are now my past
My all concentration is just focusing on future
New Year has arrived with hope
A hope of goodness in everything
A hope that my country will be in peace
A hope that all problems may come with a simple solution
May my all the relations become more sweet and loveable?
May my all pathetic memories be just past
May my life be quite simple
May my life be full of joy
Past year is a past don’t matter what was it
But the future is unknown and unseen
Don’t know that what will happen
Just hope that everything will be good and ok
So I hope that every hope will not just hope
Hope we can say next year with hope that Happy New Year

Pain, hope, anger, Tired, fear, lost.
Pain, hope, anger.
Tired, fear, lost.
the pain within is only our own to bare
the hope is our mind playing tricks on us
the anger is finding there is no life
the tired of being pushed around
the fear of losing
the lost
Pain consumes the world
Hope is lost
anger is held high
Tired always
Fear consumes our minds
Lost is all our hopes
Pain can not beat us
Hope still shines the smallest ray of light
anger is controled
fear minimizes
lost is the feeling of emptyness
The pain wont hold us back
The hope shines the way
The anger can not harm
The fear is gone
The lost is home.
Would You Follow Me
(john kongos)
Would you follow me if I search for another life
Would you walk with me through the dark and the hungry times
If I said, Im gonna leave today
What would you do
Would you pack some things and come away too
Lose or win, thick or thin
Where would you like to be
Lose or win, thick or thin
Would you follow me
Would you follow me
Even though my dreams seem too far away today
Take a chance and
Stand by my side and
Lose or win, thick or thin
Where would you like to be
Lose or win, thick or thin
Would you follow me
Would you follow me
If I said Im goin away to join some revolution
Could you ever give up what they call the good life
Would you care to know what Im lookin for
And if I find it
Would you take note of the time, would you mind it
Lose or win, thick or thin
Where would you like to be
Lose or win, thick or thin
Would you follow me
Would you follow me

Here I Go Falling In Love Again
I swore Id never get involved
Said Id never ever fall in love
Cuz it hurt me once before
Would it hurt me ne more
Since then time has changed its different now..
Hypnotized by you and wondered how
I fell into your arms, and I was captured by your charm
Chorus:
And here I go...fallin in love again
(falling in love again..fallin in love again)
Here I go..falling in love again
(falling in love again..falling in love again)
Lost and scared as I can be
Cant help thinking of the mystery
That I shared in my first love,
Like a pair of mismatched gloves
And now youve found your way into my world
Touched the woman deep inside the girl
Can you tell me if its real?
Ive forgotten how to feel
Chours
Here I go falling in love again
The damage is already done
How can I ever turn my back on loving you
Here I go giving my all again
Im ready to show what I feel
If you will, take this loving to your heart...
And now youve found your way into my world
Touched the woman deep inside the girl
Can you tell me if its real?
Ive forgotten how to feel
Here I go falling in love again
The damage is already done
How can I ever turn my back on loving you
Here I go giving my all again
Im ready to show what I feel
If you will, take this loving to your heart...
Here I go....Im giving my heart again
(fallin in love again)
Seems like a battle I just cant win
(here I go..)
Oh Im in love and I cant win..(fallin in love again)
Ill be ready through thick and thin
(here I go..)
Im falling in love again, Im falling in love again
(falling in love again) Im falling in love again
(here I go...) here I go, here I go, catch me Im falling
(falling in love again)
Im lost without your love
Here I go..

The One That Got Away
You were the quiet one
Afraid to sleep alone
Heaven knows, I was lonely too
Some things in life a man
Can't learn to live without
One of those things was you
Who the good guys are
Who the bad guys are
Isn't always clear
In this world of separate houses
Someone's always missing someone
Day after day
And year after year
Though you and I are distant
Don't ever think I didn't want you
Or miss you every day
No matter where life takes you
Know that I'll still be waiting patiently
For the day that you've forgiven me
My son
The One That Got Away
It's all of the little things
That add up to a life
'N it's been so hard
Being outside looking in
You had hundreds of first times
I didn't get to see
That will never come again
How do we catch up
Is there just too much
Stolen history
In this world of separate houses
I want you to remember
That you'll always be
Inside of me
Though you and I are distant
Don't ever think I didn't want you
Or miss you every day
No matter where life takes you
Know that I'll still be waiting patiently
For the day that you've forgiven me
My son
The One That Got Away
You're carryin' an anger
that does not belong to you
'N I'm sick and tired of doin' time
For a crime I didn't do
I miss you every day
No matter where life takes you
Know that I'll still be waiting patiently
'Cause I do believe in you and me
And I trust that someday
You'll no longer be

A Faithful Witness
To the firstborn of Yahseph,
Of all that is created;
To the secondborn of Yahseph,
Do set set your mind on Mount Zion;
For His name is His glory and,
Of the economic well-being.
Of the year of the rat,
Of the year of the dog,
Of the year of the cow,
Of the year of the bull,
Of the year of the sheep,
Of the year of the dragon,
Of the year of the snake,
Of the year of the pig,
Of the year of the goat,
Of the year of the lizard,
Of the year of the crocodile,
Of the year of the elephant,
Of the year of the scorpion,
Of the year of the turtle,
Of the year of the fish,
Of the year of the earth,
Of the year of the wind,
Of the year of the fire,
Of the year of the water,
And of the year of the bush!
Like the firstborns of slaves.
The hips of romance,
The faithful witness will not lie;
The same day,
The same night,
Of the love shared at where no oxen are;
And the crib was very clean.

Happy New Year Everyone
As we venture towards another year,
I sit and reflect on the passing one.
A year that has been filled
with surprises from start to finish.
The biggest surprise
is the love and friendship
that has greeted me
from all the four corners of the world.
My cup runneth over
with the joys that it has brought
to this heart of mine.
It is hard to believe
and I am still pinching myself
to prove that it is real.
I could never have imagined
at this time last year. (2006)
that I would be writing this
to say thank you to everyone.
The joy of just one friend
is something to rejoice for,
but to having hundreds
is surely a blessing from God.
This year has taught me
many things about my life
and the way we should live.
Caring for others,
everyone we meet,
stretching out a helping hand
to everyone in need.
Never giving cross words,
there is no need for them,
when our love
will always make amends.
So yes, this passing year to me
has been a very memorable one.
Into the next, I’ll stride
with hope that I can help more
than I did this year.
Making more people smile
and bring more love and good cheer.
To all my friends out there
around the world
I am wishing you
a very happy and prosperous
New Year (2008) ahead.
If it is to be,
like this year for me.
It will certainly be a good
and Happy New Year indeed.
Happy New Year Everyone

Kick It In
Love gives me poetry
Stays up all night and puts a curse on me
Oh anything you want
Turn around and Ill take you there
I know its going to be
Take your shackles off o me
This citys gone, Im gone over there
Kick it in, kick it in
Build it up and burn it down again
Kick it in, kick it in
Burn down to the ground
Kick it in, kick it in
Tell me about this place youve been
I dont want it theres a fever going around
Take a walk down town
See whats going on
If you want to find a hidden key
Theres nothing here on me
Any city, anywhere
Any colour I dont care
You belong to me
And thats the way its gonna be
Kick it in, kick it in
Yeah kick it in, kick it in
Raise it up and let it live again
Feel your body shake and take off
You can lie but keep it in
Keep me down here wondering
So whats it going to be
Come on in
I like the shape youre in
You keep me wondering, wondering, wondering
Eyes upon you black and brown
Spread your love all over town
Give me fire, body heat
Say hello to me
I want to go anywhere
Any colour I dont care
Dont believe in all you see
And dont get caught
Kick it in, kick it in
Tell me about this love youve been
Kick it in, kick it in
Turn this life around
Kick it in, kick it in
Shake the ghosts from deep within
Close the door down
Dont let the demons in
Kick it in, kick it in
I only want to be your friend
Put your hands in my hand
And take off with me
Listen baby, Im going home
Im going home
Im going home
Come on walk with me
Cause I know what I see
Kick it in
Kick it in, kick it in
Tell me bout the place youre in
Ive got a new gold dream
Im moving on, Im moving on
Youre moving on, youre moving on
Youre moving on, yeah
Kick it in, kick it in
Im moving on

Now That I Have You
Youve got to believe theres something inside of me
That makes me feel this way
Youve got to believe that youre still a part of me
Today
But telling a tale cannot be like living it
No matter what you say
And talking of love cannot be like giving it
Away
I know
And you know
The voices are calling
Now that I have you
Whatever in the world can I do
Now that I have you
Whoever in the world could say its not true
Now that I have you
I wonder how much of our life is memory
Remember yesterday
Im hoping to God you dont believe everything
I say
Remebering every part of our history
A year is like a day
Youve got to believe that things wont always be
This way
I know
And you know
The voices are calling
The walls are falling
For my love
And your love
Ive got to keep stalling
Now that I have you
Whatever in the world can I do
Now that I have you
Whoever in the world could say its untrue
Now that I have you

Falling in love
1:
Kiss the past till its better
Make it last if you can
Tell me know you regret her
Ill try to understand
What was lost can be regained
All the hurt can be healed
Theres no need to feel ashamed
Youve come back and I feel afraid

Falling in love falling in love
Falling in love all over again
Im falling in love all over again
Falling in love with you

And the day has begun

A Song of Autumn
‘WHERE shall we go for our garlands glad
At the falling of the year,
When the burnt-up banks are yellow and sad,
When the boughs are yellow and sere?
Where are the old ones that once we had,
And when are the new ones near?
What shall we do for our garlands glad
At the falling of the year?’
‘Child! can I tell where the garlands go?
Can I say where the lost leaves veer
On the brown-burnt banks, when the wild winds blow,
When they drift through the dead-wood drear?
Girl! when the garlands of next year glow,
You may gather again, my dear—
But I go where the last year’s lost leaves go
At the falling of the year.’

Baby Lets Rock!
Baby, Im the greatest thing youve got
In a good way I suppose
Exactly where you are is where Im not
So from a lead balloon inside your room
Ill drop sparks
You can kick, you can cry, you can fuss
But lets rock
Baby, is there time for loves
So go and grab your brand new shoes
Ive taken care of everything
And when I cant cant you know Im tying knots
Baby, lets rock
Baby, Im the greatest thing youve got
My rings are to set the stone
But every single wish is still a lie
So in my time machine
Ill adjust the scenes
Turn back your clocks
You can bitch, you can cry, you can moan
But lets rock
Baby, theres no time for loves
So go and grab your brand new shoes
Ive taken care of everything
And when I cant you know I wont abuse
Baby, lets rock
Lets rock
Lets rock
Lets rock
Lets rock
I dream about you every night
And when I do youre holding me tight
Id love somebody like you in my life
In my life
Baby, Im the greatest thing youve got
In a good way I should hope
In a good way I suppose
Baby, Im the greatest thing youve got
Baby, Im the greatest thing youve got
Ive taken care of everything
Ive even gone and changed all the locks
Baby, lets rock
Lets rock

Where Did The Love Go
Where did the love go, what made the love you had go
My heart once more shattered, please tell me it isn't so
My bruised and broken heart bleed tears for what should have been forever
You promised in front of God to love me through thick and thin
I'ts over for you, For me it just begins
I shall never love another, just live day to day with all this pain
I'm so tired of loving alone, it just hurts too bad, I'm not to blame
You've let me go, even though i'm still here
I will continue to hang on no matter where you steer
I am a walking robot in your world, I will not show defeat
I will act like I don't care, I will not let you see my heartbeat
You will be dead to my heart, I will smile through my mask
You really lost this time love, I cannot afford to love, it's become a task!
