Baby Britain
Baby britain feels the best floating over a sea of vodka
Separated from the rest
Fights problems with bigger problems
Sees the ocean fall and rise
Counts the waves that somehow didnt hit her
Water pouring from her eyes
Alcoholic and very bitter
For someone half as smart youd be a work of art
You put yourself apart
And I cant help until you start
We knocked another couple back
The dead soldiers lined up on the table
Still prepared for an attack
They didnt know theyd been disabled
Felt a wave a rush of blood
You wont be happy til the bottles broken
And youre out swimming in the flood
You kept back you kept unspoken
For someone half as smart youd be a work of art
You put yourself apart
And I cant help until you start
You got a look in your eye
When youre saying goodbye
Like you wanna say hi
The light was on but it was dim
Revolvers been turned over
And now its ready once again
The radio was playing crimson and clover
London bridge is safe and sound
No matter what you keep repeating
Nothings gonna drag me down
To a death thats not worth cheating
For someone half as smart youd be a work of art
You put yourself apart
And I cant help until you start
For someone half as smart youd be a work of art
You put yourself apart

This Photograph Is Proof
Well, i'll wait till you listen
I wont say a word
to follow your instincts
just never worked for me
your silent but strong, (yeah, I'm playing that card)
and your noticing nothing again
Now I'm lying on the table
with everything you said
keeping mind the way that it felt
when the most I could do was to just blame myself
(yeah, I'm playing that card)
when the most I could do was to just blame myself
and I know you know, everything
I know you didnt mean it
I know you didnt mean it
I know you know, everything (drop everything)
I know you didn't mean it (start it all over)
I know you didn't mean it (remember more then youd like to forget)
So, we're talking forever
and you almost feel better
but, betters no excuse for tonight
you see, it's never bad enough
just to leave or you give up
but, its never good enough to feel right
Now I'm lying on the table
with everything you said
it will all catch up eventually
well, it caught up and honestly
the weight of my decisions
were impossible to hold
but they were never yours
but they were never yours
Well I, know you know, everything
I know you didnt mean it
I know you didnt mean it
I know you know, everything (drop everything)
I know you didn't mean it (start it all over)
I know you didn't meant it (remember more then youd like to forget)
Drop everything, start it all over
remember more then youd like to forget [x2]
Would you like to forget
would you like to forget
drop everything, start it all over
well, drop everything start it all over (would you like to forget)
drop everything start it all over
start it all...
Well I, know you know, everything
I know you didnt mean it
I know you didnt mean it
I know you know, everything (drop everything)
I know you didnt mean it (start it all over)

Uh-oh, Love Comes To Town
Wait, wait for the moment to come
Stand up, stand up and take my hand
Believe, believe in mystery
Love love love love is simple as 1-2-3
Im a know-it-all, Im smartest man around
Thats right, you learn real fast through the smartest girl in town
Here come a riddle, here come a clue
If you were really smart, youd know what to do
When...
Jump back, sit back, get back, relax
Its ok
Ive called in sick I wont go to
Work today
Id rather be with the
One I love
I neglect my duties, I be in trouble but
Ive been to college, Ive been to school
Ive met the people that you read about in books
Here come a riddle, here come a clue
If you were really smart youd know what to do when I say
Jet pilot gone out of control, ship captain on the ground
Stock broker make a bad investment when love has come to town
Where, where is my common sense?
How...did I get in a jam like this?
Believe, I believe in mystery
Love, love love love is simple as 1-2-3
Here come a riddle, here come a clue
If you were really smart, youd know what to do when I say
Why am I going out of my head, whenever youre around?
The answer is obvious, love has come to town

Didnt You Know Shes Gone
(phil vassar, don sampson)
Said the cloud to the sun, todays no time to shine
Didnt you know shes gone
Said the rain to the moon, youre not needed tonight
Didnt you know shes gone
You can keep your magical moments we dont needem round here
Didnt you know shes gone by now
I thought youd have figured it out
Cant you please forget her and just move on
Didnt you know shes gone
Said the tear to the pillow, watch out Im ready to fall
Didnt you know shes gone
Said the pillow to the tear, that aint gonna help at all
Didnt you know shes gone
Why do you insist upon crying, whats the matter with you
Didnt you know shes gone by now
I thought youd have figured it out
Cant you please forget her and just move on
Didnt you know shes gone
Said myself to me, hey man why cant you see
Shes history, shes gone and she aint comin back
Said the mirror to the man, take a good look at yourself
Didnt you know shes gone
Said the man to the mirror a few choice words to myself
Didnt you know shes gone
Talk about a revelation, right between the eyes
Didnt you know shes gone by now
I thought youd have figured it out
Cant you please forget her and just move on
Didnt you know shes gone
Didnt you know shes gone by now
I thought youd have figured it out
Cant you please forget her and just move on

Still
Still
Verse:
When I sleep
I have dreams about the way we used to kiss
About the way you used to hold me
And say nothin would ever harm me
When we first met
Oh how you charmed me
Made me smile when I was down
Big pimpin around the town
You and me
Whenever theyd see you
Theyd see me
A lover and a friend to me you were
How did it end
How it hurts
To not have you in my life
When I wont even be alright
Bridge:
You never know what you have
Till its gone
Treated you wrong
For so long
Now youre gone away
But the love still is here
Chorus:
Still...
I still got love for you
Still...
After what we been through
Still...
I gave my heart to you
And baby youre the only one
Theres never men like you
Still...
That can come close to you
Still..
Once I said I love you
I knew youd be the only one
Verse 2:
A good man you were to me
Always there to care
Would do anything in this world for me
Didnt matter, what, when, or where
You were there
I never thought wed part from the arguments wed start
When I just wanted to get some attention
And Im sorry baby for bitchin
If I could take back the words
That I said to make you leave
Id be down on bended knees
Thats when youd take me
Forgive me
Bridge:
You never know what you have
Till its gone
Treated you wrong
For so long
Now youre gone away
But the love still is here
Chorus
Bridge 2:
All of the good times we had together (together)
Do they mean somethin to you
Do you ever wish we never split (never)
Still got love for you...

Never Gonna Fall In Love Again
(rap:) never gonna fall in love again, never gonna fall in love again,
Never gonna fall in love again, never gonna fall in love again.
You said youd never ever try to break my heart,
You told a lie, you tore my love apart.
You said youve always wanted someone just like me,
You let me down, baby, you set me free.
Whether its wrong, whether its right, wont take me through the night,
Told me that you loved me so and youd never let me go.
You played the game youre not the same, I never thought youd ever change,
If its got to be this way Im never gonna fall in love.
Never gonna fall in love again, never gonna fall in love again,
Never gonna fall in love again, never gonna fall in love.
Never gonna fall in love again, never gonna fall in love again,
Never gonna fall in love again, never gonna fall in love. (spoken:) break one!
When I heard this crazy stuff about this other guy,
I didnt believe it, had to see it in my eyes.
When I saw you and him, you passed me by,
Hes not your friend, hes the other guy.
Whether...
Break two!
(rap:) Im never gonna fall cause I fell, loving you for me was like hell.
How could you play me like a champ, a tramp, a cramp?
Girl, you did me worse than a food stamp.
You told me I could trust you, if I didnt I would crush you,
But never thought that one day Id bust you
Walking in the sand hand in hand with another man
I know your game plan and now I understand
Love so deep is like sleep and it will leave you blind
But I see how youre living so baby next time
Whatcha gonna do now that the tables are turned around
Im living swell and now you wanna be down
Step off cause baby Ive learned if youre
Messing with fire then youre gonna get burned
You still look dope but a dope Im not
I cant get with you cause youre too hot
Never gonna ... (repeat ad lib & fade)

When You Are On Top
I need a bed
That nobodys slept in
I need some air
Nobodys been breathing
I need a thought
That I can believe in
Is this fog
Or is the building really burning
I need you now
Much more than ever
Im making new friends
But none of them matter
Maybe now
We dont fit together
But youve got your arms around
No one but strangers
I feel fine
With the sun in my eyes
The wind in my hair
Im falling out of this sky
Im doing better than I thought I would
But nothings ever as good
As when youre on top
I want to wake up
And just start running
Into a ditch
Or straight up a mountain
I want to get
What no one's been getting
Make it deeper than hell
Or make it higher than heaven
I need someone
Whose price hasnt been met
When everybodys disappearing
By the minute
There isnt anyone left
I havent met yet
And I remember
When they hadnt gotten to you yet
I feel fine
With the sun in my eyes
The wind in my hair
When Im falling out of this sky
Im doing better than I thought I would
But nothings ever as good
As when youre on top
Half way up
And over this rainbow
I heard a shot
Fire up from the ghetto
As I drop
I didnt think youd follow
Just didnt know
The sky was this shallow
I need a garden
Where nothings forbidden
I need an apple
No ones been eatin
I want to start again
Back at the beginnin
I had a vision
That this feeling maybe has an ending.

Buddys Song
Written by ella holly.
Blue blue days, and long black nights
Lonesome tears youre gonna cry for me
And little baby
Youd better start baby
And leave
Think it over before you leave
I got the love - that kind you need
And little baby
Youd better start baby
And leave
Ill rave on with the things you say
You say youre gonna leave but thatll be the day
Maybe baby, you dont know
I left peggy sue, a long time ago
Shes the girl on my mind
Everyday through all the time
And little baby
Youd better start baby
And leave
Solo
Ill rave on with those things you say
You say youre gonna leave but thatll be the day
Maybe baby, you dont know
I left peggy sue, a long time ago
Shes the girl on my mind
Everyday through all the time
And little baby
Youd better start baby
And leave
And little baby
Youd better start baby
And leave

Too Gone Too Long
Did I hear you say that
You want another chance
You need another try
Youre ready to reclaim your prize
So you want my love back
Whyd you let it slip away
Whyd you ever let me go
Your change of heart has come too late
Well the door is locked you cant get in
The game has changed youve been
Chorus:
Too gone, too long baby
To ever get back again
In my heart
Too gone, too long baby
Youre too many tears too late
To ever get back to get back
In my arms
Been gone too gone too long
Verse 2:
Didnt you hear me say that
Youd be a fool to leave
Youd regret the road you chose
Youd come running right back to me
You had such a good love sugar
You never found in no one else
But what I knew all the time
You had to find out for yourself
But now youll never know
That love again
Youre on your own
(chorus) bridge:
Did you really think Id take you back
Let you back in my life
Oh baby just like that
Someone new is loving me
Loving you is what used to be
Baby youre too late to win my heart again

Have You Ever Been In Love?
In the morning light
Half awake and half asleep
Have you ever laid there thinking
Was it all a dream?
But you reach out and shes there
Every moment, everywhere
Have you ever been in love?
Have you ever felt
How far a heart can fall
Have you ever stayed up waiting
For a telephone call
Just to hear her say hello
cause you miss each other so
Have you ever been in love?
Have there been times to laugh
And times you really want to cry
Finding reasons to believe her
cause youd die a little if she lied
And when in times of doubt
Have you ever tried to work it out
But still she leaves you wondering
What its all about
And when shes far away
Have you ever felt the need to stray
And tried and then discovered
It just doesnt pay
cause with her, you can be true
And with her, you can be you
Have you ever been in love?
Have there been times to laugh
And times you really want to cry
Finding reasons to believe her
cause youd die a little if she lied
And when in times of doubt
Have you ever tried to work it out
But still she leaves you wondering
What its all about
And when the night comes down
Can you call your house a home
Do you dream youre still together
And wake up alone
Have you ever been in love
The way that Im in love
Have you ever been in love?

Forgive Her Anything
(written by elvis costello, transcribed by craig ciccone w/ bolans corrections)
Oh, a tv went off like three day old milk
That shook this town down better than most
And it always was less of idea and more of a boast
Oh, youre burning in the bloom of life
til youre powder in the grave
Or youre pounding in the counter beggin for more
til you evaporate
Youd forgive her anything
If you look like you, my pretty miss
I wonder where you are tonight
And this place becomes pityless
Oh, I couldnt sleep, but I cant complain
Oh, this wont hurt a bit, oh, this wont hurt again
When the roof comes down and the walls move in
Oh, he didnt know it could feel like that
And your face turned away and the day turned black
And the rain fell like a curtain
Oh, its my turn to begin
To forgive her anything
Youd forgive her anything
If you knew what I know
Youd forgive her anything
So where did all my pride go?
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, youd forgive her anything
If you knew what I know
Youd forgive her anything
So where did all my pride go?

Take It To Heart
By diane warren and michael mcdonald
I know that youre afraid to love
Youve been hurt before
Love broke your heart so you closed the door
Now here I am outside your world,
Wishin youd let me in
Give me half a chance to prove you wrong
Baby all your tears have come and gone
Talkin bout a brand new start
Take it to heart, baby believe it
This love is so strong that it wont let you go
Baby hold on, youll see just how good its gonna be
Its gonna be here long as you need it
Never take your world and tear it apart
Take it to heart baby
Youre gonna have to trust someone
Its a shame if you dont
Because it aint no life living all alone
Let me show you how to love again
Theres no broken heart that love wont mend
Talkin bout a brand new start
I just want to be the one thatll be there by your side
So take this love of mine
Take it to heart
Baby believe it, this love is so strong, love is so strong baby
(love is a second chance to find all that we lost
Loves always worth a try no matter what the cost
I know you dont believe your tears have come and gone
Give me but half a chance and I will prove you wrong)

Dont wanna betray nobody, dont wanna be betrayed,
Dont wanna play with nobody, dont wanna be waylaid.
Dont wanna miss nobody, dont wanna be missed,

If I am so smart why does It rant? you

If I am so smart how did I end up inside

I was smart enough to dodge, your slap.
Then the abuse really started....
I kept going back for more...
her verbals became more than Pascals.
My body became more, than her work of art.
It just, was not very smart enough, it became...
Her very own, personal....toy to hurt to maim..

Born To Run
Youre back to win
To start again
Searching for the power
That youve had before
The tables turned
Mistakes youve made
Stop telling lies - no angeleyes
Just look straight ahead
Dont be afraid to roll the dice
Open up your eyes
So hit the road and memorize
Youre not for sale
Youre born to run
So take it from the start
You know youre born to run
Dont lose your heart
Now youre calling the shots
So youd better watch out
Dont you understand you cant deny
What you have done before
But dont you know
Your time will come
Forget the past - just head out
Head out for your aims
And in the end youll see the light
Tearing up the night
So let it shine and realize
Youre not for sale
Youre born to run
So take it from the start
You know youre born to run
Dont waste your time and realize that youre
Youre born to run
Tomorrows here today
cause youre the number one
Youre leading the way
So just believe me
Youd better watch out
Your time will come
Mark my words
Think about it
I wanna tell ya
Youre born to run
So take it from the start
You know youre born to run
Dont waste your time and realize that youre
Youre born to run

cause youre the number one
Fight the fight - light the light - realize youre

More Fool Me
Here am i
Who while away the mornings
Since youve gone
Too long have I lay alone
Not knowing which way to turn.
And there you are
Quite sure that you were right
Knowing full well
That Id be the first one
To go down.
And youd be the one who was laughing
Except when things werent going your way
And then the lady would say that shed had enough
Wandering around on her own.
The day you left
Well I think you knew youd not be back
Well at least it would seem that way
Because you never said goodbye.
But when it comes round to you and me
Im sure it will work out alright.
And youd be the one who was laughing
And giving me something I dont need
And you know, Id always hold you and keep you warm
Oh! more fool me.
Ah, but when it comes
Round to you and me
I ask myself
Do I really believe
In your love.
Yes, Im sure it will work out alright.

When Youre Alone
Times were tough love was not enough
So you said sorry johnny Im gone gone gone
You said my act was funny
But we both knew what was missing honey
So you let out on your own
Now that pretty form that youve got baby
Will make sure you get along
But youre gonna find our someday honey
When youre alone youre alone
When youre alone youre alone
When youre alone youre alone
When youre alone you aint nothing but alone
Now I was young and pretty on the mean streets of the city
And I fought to makeem my home
With just the shirt on my back I left and swore Id never look back
And man I was gone gone gone
But theres things thatll knock you down you dont even see coming
And send you crawling like a baby back home
Youre gonna find out that day sugar
When youre alone...
I knew some day your runnin would be through
And youd think back on me and you
And your love would be strong
Youd forget all the bad and think only of all the laughs that we had
And youd wanna come home
Now it aint hard feelings or nothin sugar
That aint whats got me singing this song
Its just nobody knows baby where love goes
But when it goes its gone gone
When youre alone...
song performed by by Bruce Springsteen
