The Sweetest Punch
You only saw red
After I said, how can we continue?
Hidden from your view
In the blue corner that I painted myself into
Then we started to fight
And it changed everything
Heres the ring
You dropped the band, I cant understand it
Not after all weve been through
Words start to fly, my glass jaw and i
Will find one to walk right into
You knocked me out
It was the sweetest punch
The bell goes...
I can hear it ringing, but I didnt see it coming
We all say things we dont mean
You cant take it back
Now the room is spinning, but was I the last to notice?
I can see Ill never win
So if youre going
Then you better go to him
Then you better go to him
I only saw stars
I dropped my guard, and thats how it ended
What was I to do
In the blue corner where I seemed to hang suspended?
Then with seconds to go
You delivered the blow
Here I go
You dropped the band, I cant understand it
Not after all weve been through
Words start to fly, my glass jaw and i
Will find one to walk right into
You knocked me out
It was the sweetest punch
The bell goes...
I can hear it ringing, but I didnt see it coming
We all say things we dont mean
You cant take it back
Now the room is spinning, but was I the last to notice?
I can see Ill never win
So if youre going
Then you better go to him
Then you better go to him

Didnt I?
(carly simon)
Didnt I give you midnight?
Didnt I give you the month of june
Didnt I make it alright
When everything was ruined
Didnt I say didnt i
Didnt you say didnt I too
Didnt we both say didnt i
till didnt we say were through
Didnt I try, didnt I cry
Didnt i?
Sorry that your mother dropped you on your head
Maybe her mother dropped her too
In the end we all get dropped
We all get black and blue
But didnt I always love you long
When time was short and the night was cold
Didnt I admit that I was wrong
When the anger was new but the fight was old
Didnt I say didnt i
till didnt we say were through
Didnt I try, didnt I cry
Didnt i, didnt i,
Didnt I do?

Beaten To The Punch
You say that you can and then you run to get your mummy
And youre almost beaten to the punch
Looking for the man who sold you the dummy
And youre almost beaten to the punch
Laughing at the older guys who say its just as well
Saved by the wedding bell
Almost beaten to the punch
Youre looking for somebody new that you can knock around
You are almost beaten to the punch
If youve got a head for figures then youd better count me out
You were almost beaten to the punch
You pulled the piece but you soon called it love
You go hand in glove
Almost beaten to the punch
Your body speaks much louder than your voice
You let it do the talking so I dont have any choice
Now you find the younger guys are putting up resistance
And youre almost beaten to the punch
You better get out now because youll never go the distance
And youre almost beaten to the punch
Youll find a girl and youll promise her anything
Even a wedding ring
Almost beaten to the punch

Passion governs
My mother dropped the glass.
My wife dropped the glass.
My servant dropped the glass
My child dropped the glass.
My sweetheart dropped the glass
I dropped the glass.
My reactions are different.
The depth of passion governs.

Eye To Eye
J. spinks ,t. lewis
(chorus)
I wanna get close
Wanna spend my time with you
We gotta sit down and talk
Got to see things eye to eye
I tried to tell her but I couldnt begin
Its not a thing that takes a moment
Im coming over better let me come in
(chorus)
Youll understand me
A lot better when the pictures all clear
Im yours and anyway you want me
Move over cos its lonely over here
(chorus)
Youve got no choice
Youve got no say when it comes round
Im gonna jump down dont walk away
Weve got to see things eye to eye
There was something when I met you
There was something in the words we didnt say
It was something that we both knew
It was something that dont happen every day
(chorus)
Youve got no choice
Youve got no say when it comes round
Im gonna jump down dont walk away
Weve got to see things eye to eye

Get Back
Im spinning out, I cant control my car.
It doesnt matter who you think you might be you are.
I misplace it and I dont know where its at,
And I could find it but Id never get it back...
Dont get it back,
Dont get it back
The more you want it, the less youre gonna get back.
Im running out, I dont know when to stop.
I thought Id wait till I saw the penny drop.
It started raining, pennies falling in my lap.
And I could spend it, but Id never get it back.
Dont get it back
Dont get it back
The more you want it, the less youre gonna get back.
Dont get it back
Dont get it back
The more you want it, the less youre gonna get it back. x3
Im spinning out, I cant control my car.

Put Yourself In My Shoes
Your mind is made up you wont even try
You didnt even cry this time
You say that we could never see eye to eye
And one of us just must be blind
We have our differences
Were still the same
See what we want to see
But you take a second look
And maybe things wouldnt seem the same
If you could see what you mean to me
Put yourself in my shoes
Walk a mile for me
Ill put myself in your shoes
Maybe then wed see
That if you put yourself in my shoes
Youd have some sympathy
And if I could only put myself in your shoes
Id walk right back to me
Youre gonna keep walkin and youre gonna pass me by
You say you dont even care
But I could always recognize a real good-bye
And I know your hearts not there
Weve had our differences
Were still the same
Hear what we want to hear
Now Im head over heels in the lost and found
Its a cryin shame
I thought we made the perfect pair
Put yourself in my shoes
Walk a while walk that mile for me
Ill put myself in your shoes
Maybe then wed see
That if you put yourself in my shoes
Youd have some sympathy
And if I could only put myself in your shoes
Id walk right back to me
Id walk right back to me
Id walk right back to me

Idiot Music
Its the words you dont say
That keeps ringing in my ear
I feel like an idiot
To think that you are really cared
Its the kiss you dont blow
That I keep brushing off my chin
Its the punch you dont throw
That keeps hurting within
I only loved you
Whatever you say
Whatever you do
Its the words you dont scream
That being sucked back in
A dream within a dream
Its not what you"ve seen
Its what you dont understand
That makes you sharper than
The one who
Take advantage of you
I only loved you
Sick of this music
Whatever you do
Whatever you say
A cellular goodbye

How Can It Hurt
(music: marillion lyrics: steve hogarth)
Maybe youre just too upset inside to give it to me straight
Maybe youve become too angry and too close to crying to say anything I can understand
Or maybe youre just coming in over my head
Maybe youre just too upset inside too upset inside
How can it hurt if I dont understand
How can it hurt if I dont understand
How can it hurt if I dont understand
How can it hurt if I dont understand
Youre never gonna square with me I know so what is there to say?
Theres a million words that we could share tonight
Why do you walk away?
And I could write you off and its over with like a damaged car I cant afford to fix
But everything inside me wants to heal your pain
You wont explain
You wont explain
How can it hurt if I dont understand
How can it hurt if I dont understand
How can it hurt if I dont understand
How can it hurt if I dont understand
How can it hurt, how can it hurt
Well I dont understand
Well I dont understand
Tell me how can it hurt
Well I dont understand
Tell me how can it hurt
Well I dont understand

Dont Walk Away
Why do I say, dont walk away
Youll be the way you were before, when you dont want me anymore
Dont turn around, dont ever leave, a lonely room where empty days
Are gathering to meet me when youre gone, gone
How in the world will I go on
(dont walk away) all you gotta do is stay
(dont walk away) all you gotta do is stay (dont walk away)
Chorus:
Dont walk away (dont walk away), dont say goodbye (dont say goodbye)
Dont turn around (dont turn around), dont let it die (dont let it die)
When shadows fall (when shadows fall), when day is done (when day is done)
All through the night (all through the night), all of my life (all of my life)
Dont walk away
Is it a dream, when will it end
When everything weve ever known has ended and Im all alone
Where will I go, where will I be, the feelings that Ive never shown
Maybe Ill find the answer when youre gone, gone
How in the world will I go on
(dont walk away) all you gotta do is stay
(dont walk away) all you gotta do is stay (dont walk away)

Been Here Once Before
Got your back up against the wall
Now you know that after all
When you make mistakes like that
Theres no more turning back
Now weve gone and weve lost our heads
Youre better off just playing dead
Why you wearing that black hat
Theres no point in turning back
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
Well all you know is you need to win
Should you go when your call comes in
Once you see all the blood that flows
I dont think youll be winning more
Now I thought that was all in the past
And that beast would come back last
Once again we are at war
Yes I know weve been here before
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before...thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
And I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before...thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
And I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
Been here once before...

The Way You Wear Your Head
Dont push me cause Ill fall in love
With whatever you just said.
Dont push me cause I'll fall in love
With the way you wear your head.
Out in the corner
Youre glowing white
Out in the corner
Youre glowing white
I want to want you
I need to need you
Id love to love you
I want to want you
I need to need you
Im begging to beg you
Out in the corner
Youre glowing white
Out in the corner
Youre glowing white
Id like to say good-bye
To a complicated mind
But when I walk and wave
Im stalked all day
By california lives
And things I didnt try
And ways you were unkind
And the strangest colored eyes
Out in the corner
Youre glowing white
Out in the corner
Youre glowing white

Wedding Bells
I have the invitation that you sent me
You wanted me to see you change your name
I couldnt stand to see you with another
But dear I hope youre happy just the same
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel
That should be ringing out for you and me
Down the aisle with someone else youre walking
Those wedding bell will never ring for me
I planned a little cottage in the valley
I even bought a little band of gold
I thought some day Id place it on your finger
But now the future looks so dark and cold
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel
I hear the children laughing out with glee
At home alone I hang my head in sorrow
Those wedding bells will never ring for me
I fancy that I see a bunch of roses
A blossom from an orange tree in your hair
And while the organ plays I love you truly
Please let me pretend that I am there
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel
Ever since the dat you set me free
I know someday that you are with another
But wedding bells will never ring for me

Mister Blue
Whats the story, mr. blue
Did she pull the rug from under you
Did she chop your dreams up two by two
And kick them out the door
I could sympathize you, son
But pity words stick to my tongue
And sorry words have all been sung
So many times before
Oh, mr. blue, you blew your chances long ago
Oh, mr. blue, youre through
Quit acting like you didnt know
Hang on one more day or two
Then I promise Ill be laying you
Odds that shes found someone new
While you stand around and rust
She dont need no part-time man
With no part-time answer, understand
She dont want an hours fall of sand
For a lifetime full of dust
Oh, mr. blue, you blew your chances long ago
Oh, mr. blue, youre through
Quit acting like you didnt know
Mr. blue, you missed the shot
Didnt turn out quite the way you thought
It would, Ill bet, cause you got caught
Out playing donald juan
Shes got polish, shes got class
And someday when on the street you pass her house
Youll wonder why the grass
Looks greener on her lawn
Oh, mr. blue, you blew your chances long ago
Oh, mr. blue, youre through
Quit acting like it isnt so

Its Hard For Me To Say
(luther vandross/john skipanderson)
Didnt know till today
That you would love for me to say
All of the things I feel
Though you dont doubt theyre real
Insecure, very shy
Are the only reasons I have why
I never say the things that
You would love to hear
All the words I try
Disappoint me and I cry
So theyre words I dont often say
But its in my love, its in my feeling
Its in the very same heart
That loved you from the start
Its in my heat, its in the spirit
And its got me totally high
Its just hard me to say why
Kind of sad, kind of blue
Because I wanted to tell you
That you are in my heart
Though we are far apart
Didnt know how to say
All the little things to make you stay
And not to keep assuming
You could read my mind
Youre the one I love
Though its hard for you to know
cause the words I dont always say
But its in my love, its in my feeling
Its in the very same heart
That loved you from the start
Its in the heat, its in the spirit
And its got me totally high
Its just hard me to say why
Its hard for me

Finding Me
I dont think you notice
When you see my face
I guess youre waiting
To spin me around again
Wheels I guess are turning
Somewhere inside my head
I know that this is
Deeper than you get
But youre coming back again
You dont mean to waste my time
But youre coming back so
Chorus
Dont tell me
How to be
cause I like some suffering
Dont ask me
What I need
Im just fine
Here finding me
Me
Ive already given
Up on getting through
I never question
Who Im talking to
Oh so much for nothing
But nothing means so much
I know its touching
But Ive been out of touch
And its all that I can do
Im a sight for my sore eyes
But its all I am so
Chorus
I dont think you notice
When I cant reach out
I guess youre waiting
On somebody else again
Oh so much for talking
Its all been said before
Im hearing something
But I wish youd just say more
But youre going off again
When I try to just hold on
But youre going off so

You Dont Understand Me
Ive been up all night, youve been puttin up a fight.
Seems like nothin I say gets through.
How did this old bed fit a world between me and you.
We said goodnight but the silence was so thick
You could cut it with a knife.
Weve hit the wall again and theres nothin I can do.
Youre the one, yea, Ive put all my trust in your hands.
Cmon and look in my eyes, here I am, here I am
You dont understand me, my baby.
You dont seem to know that I need you so much.
You dont understand me, my feelings,
The reason Im breathin, my love
The mornin comes and youre reaching out for me
Just like everythings the same
And I let myself believe things are gonna change.
When you kiss my mouth and you hold my body close,
Do you wonder whos inside?
Maybe theres no way we could feel each others pain.
Tell me why it gets harder to know where I stand.
I guess loneliness found a new friend, here I am
You dont understand me...
You dont seem to get me, my baby.
You dont really see that I live for your touch.
You dont understand me, my dreams or the things I believe in, my love.
You dont understand me. you dont understand me. understand me.

I turned around to find the thing

When The Sinner
(m&l - kiske)
Now its time - to shake it all up to be free
Now its time - to make us some room to let us be
Oh, it feels so bad
Yes it feels so bad
When everything good looks so bad
When everything right goes so wrong
I am up - to break il all down whats in my way
I wont stop - until I am where Im gonna stay
No one holds me back
No, no one holds me back
Dont wanna be what Im not
But its gotta be be myself who breaks my neck
I look here and you look there
I know its got to be somewhere
We look around and search around
And walk around and hear around
We keep on looking till we know what for
If you dont know it, I dont know it,
We dont know it, who will know it?
All of us dont know what we sould know
Maybe one day well know
But anyway weve got to make a stop
Over my head -
Look over my head you wont see no holo
Its driving me mad -
I must hold it back inside
When the sinner searchs a sin, its all of us
When we finally search inside, its under us
We keep on looking anyway
If we dont find it who must pay
All Ive ever done Ive done for you
In my mind - the battle goes on till I give up
Will we find - the key of live we once have dropped?
Do you really care?
Tell me you really care?
You may find mr. blame
But the guilt of life burns everywhere
Give me light to see my inside,
Give me light to see my sin
Id never do what I regret
Ive never done anything bad
You must be joking when you point at me!
Hey! dont you blame me! dont you touch me!
Wont you ever leave me be?
I wanna live! dont wanna think!
Why should I give what I can drink?
Man! life is short so I take what I need
Over my head -
Look over my head you wont see no holo
Its driving me mad -
I must hold it back inside
When the sinner searchs a sin, its all of us
When we finally search inside, its under us
We keep on looking anyway
If we dont find it who must pay
All Ive ever done Ive done for you
Pain! I feel inside is such a
Shame! no one fights fair, but whos to
Blame! might be game of life bu it aint over
Now! I walk my way firm any
How! my conscience speaks and there are
Doubts! but nothings sure in life
And it aint over now!
I look here and you look there
I know its got to be somewhere
We look around and search around
And walk around and hear around
We keep on looking till we know what for
If you dont know it, I dont know it,
We dont know it, who will know it?
All of us dont know what we sould know
Maybe one day well know
But anyway weve got to make a stop
Over your head -
Look over your head you wont see no holo
Its driving you mad -
You must hold it back inside
When the sinner searchs a sin, its all of us
When we finally search inside, its under us

Spinning His Wheels
(olivia newton-john /gary burr)
He didnt get home until ten
He was still hard at work even then
He didnt notice the change in her hair
Or the candles that burned everywhere
She went off to bed all alone
He didnt notice shed gone
And it takes all her strength to hang on
Shes on the edge of the circle watching him spin around
They cant reach each other until he slows down
They cant find the center, how lonely that feels
Shes stuck in a heartache, hes spinning his wheels
He crawls into bed after two
With a head full of things he should do
And he makes it quite clear with his kiss
Shes no longer on top of his list
There are times when she cant feel his love
So she remembers the way that it was
And shell hold on tight till he does
Shes on the edge of the circle watching him spin around
They cant reach each other until he slows down
They cant find the center, how lonely that feels
Shes stuck in a heartache, hes spinning his wheels
Oh, hes on the rise to the top
She wont ask him to stop
Just please dont forget her
Oh, hes so blinded by pride
Shed be right by his side
If he would just let her
They cant find the center, how lonely that feels
Shes stuck in a heartache, hes spinning his wheels
Shes stuck in a heartache, hes spinning his wheels
