Expert Rites
I marvel at the wonder of it in our souless age
Fast flow the tears upon the page
Dont be alarmed I am her friend
Will I be excused if I presume
Its more than disappointment that we share
You share the same sorry life, the families fight,
That unhappy blade you both invite
This romantic ideal has a lonely appeal
I once loved someone the way that you do
But I had to let her go
I live with my regret
Dont despair my would-be juliet

I Will Be There
(b, r & m gibb)
This is the life you saved laid out before you
Everything that I think I have been and what I am now
Nothing can change the way I feel about you
Better we go on our separate ways
Nothing is left but the endless days
Nothing to cry but your name
Dont you look back, dont say a word
I will be lonely for you, I will be standing for you
Dont you despair
I will be there for you
Farewell to you, goodbye for me
I will be waiting for you, I will be lonely for you
Dont you despair
I will be there for you
Ohh, ohh
I will be there
Ohh, ohh
I will be there
Maybe this time next year well be together
You can wipe away all of the tears, bring truth to the lies
There was a silent dream, we made a promise
Wed be there for each other forever
Borne like a ship on the oceans roar
Beating a path to your open door
Nothing will keep me away
Dont you look back, dont say a word
I will be lonely for you, I will be standing for you
Dont you despair
I will be there for you
Each night I pray, to God above
You will be waiting for me, you will be lonely for me
Dont you despair
I will be there for you
Ohh, ohh
I will be there
Ohh, ohh
I will be there
Ohh, ohh
I will be there
Ohh, ohh
I will be there
Ohh, ohh
I will be

I Dont Wanna Live Forever
All I want is a real fast car
I wanna go too fast - I wanna go too far
I wanna take a bite of this sweet sweet life
While the gettin is good and the time right
I wanna fill my cup - I wanna drink it up.
I dont wanna live forever
I just wanna go for broke
Gonna ride thru any kind of weather
Go out in a cloud of smoke
I dont wanna live - dont wanna live forever
Dont wanna live - dont wanna live forever
All I need is a good excuse
You can cut my reins and turn me loose
Im gonna pull my weight Im gonna push my luck
Im gonna go down fightin when my time is up
You know I dont care - Im gonna get my share.
I dont wanna live forever
I just wanna go for broke
Gonna ride thru any kind of weather
Go out in a cloud of smoke
I dont wanna live - dont wanna live forever
Dont wanna live - dont wanna live forever
I wanna fill my cup - I wanna drink it up
Ya - I dont care I wanna get my share
I dont wanna live forever...

A Friend With Worries
A friend is like no other friend
A friend is a friend i dont regret meeting
A friend is like a friend i cant scream at or fight with
A friend is like having no worries in my life
A friend is a friend that i dont want to lose
A friend is like being in comfort all day
a friend is the best you ever had
a friend lets you know there secrets
a friend is someone you can trust with anything

I Shy Away
Since I met you Ive missed you all my life
What I dont know wont hurt me baby
Since Ive known you I can recall the old times
Wasnt that your face in my old photographs
Didnt we laugh and talk for hours baby
Really wanna see you but baby
Chorus
I shy away from your love
Dont you know what Im going through
I shy away from your love
I should be loving you but I just shy away
I dont ask you about the girls in your life

I dont question when something feels right
Always waiting for the right one
You say I should take my chances darlin
I could fall in live with you but baby

Moments
Come on love
Lets forget about all the things that weve done wrong
Just remember all of the things that weve done right
Im in no mood to argue and Im in no mood to fight
So let the tears pass you by
Dont you cry, dont you cry, dont you cry
And I aint gonna let this big world get me down
I gotta learn to keep a hold of my head and keep my feet on the ground
Moments of ecstatic happiness
And the moments of stress that we had better forget
But love, I gotta feeling that Ive said it all before
I said it before
I say Ill never do you wrong but then I go and do the same again
I dont know why, dont know why
Dont know why, dont know why, dont know why
We gotta learn to share these moments in our lives
And never let it get us down, we gotta put up a fight
Moments to remember all our lives
From the first brief hello to the last good-bye
I say Ill never do you wrong but then I go and do the same again
I dont know why, dont know why
Dont know why, dont know why, dont know why
We gotta learn to share these moments in our lives
And never let it get us down, we gotta put up a fight
Moments to remember all our lives
From the first brief hello to the last good-bye

Share Your Love With Me
Share your love with me
Writers
Deadric malone

Copyright 1963
Its an ill wind that blows no good
And its a sad heart that wont love like it should
Oh how lonesome you must be
And its a shame
If you dont share your love with me
Its a heartache when love is gone
And it can get even worse if it keeps on
Blinder than he who wont see
And its a shame
If you dont share your love with me
I cant help it
If he (she) is gone
You must try to forget
You must live on
Its a good thing to love someone
But its bad and even sad
When its not returned
Oh how lonesome you must be
And its a shame
If you dont share your love with me
And I said its a shame
If you dont share your love with me

A friend that i can go to to tell them whats wrong
A friend like you is like having no dark days because you brighten them up
A friend like you is a friend that opens up my eyes and helps me avoid bad things
A friend like you is a type of friend that laughs at dumb things i say or do
A friend like you is a friend i am proud to call my best friend...

Why Dont We Live Together?
There comes a time in everyones life
When all of the parties every night
Theyre not enough
You want something more ((tell me))
I want you
I want you
(tell)
(tell)
I find you when I want you
And lose you late at night
The woman in me shouts out
The man in me just smiles
I may not always love you
You may not care
But if we should live together
Theres something we could share
If we dare
Why dont we?
(baby) why dont we live together?
You wont believe in love until the day you try
(baby) why dont we live together? ((baby))
With all the love we had, and all the love we hide
Well find a home together
((baby)) and sleep there every night
((baby)) theres a time and place for most things
((baby)) this time well get it right
((aah)) you may not always love me
I may not care
But intuition tells me, baby
Theres something we could share
If we dare
Why dont we?
(baby) why dont we live together?
You wont believe in love until the day you try
(baby) why dont we live together? ((baby))
With all the love we had, and all the love we hide
Why dont we live together? ((together))
Together? ((together baby))
Why dont we live together? ((together))
Together?
Ooh, ooh, yeah, yeah
Ooh, ooh, yeah, yeah
(baby)
((ooh, baby, baby, why dont we live? ))
Ooh, ooh, yeah, yeah
((baby)) you may not always love me
I may not care
But intuition tells me, baby
Theres something we could share
If we dare
Why dont we?
(baby) why dont we live together? ((ooh ooh))
You wont believe in love until the day you try
(baby) why dont we live together? ((baby, baby))
With all the love we had, and all the love we hide ((baby))
Why dont we live together? ((together))
Together? ((together baby))
Ooh, ooh, yeah, yeah
((baby, ooh, baby))
(saying why dont we live together))
You wont believe until the day you try ((baby, baby))
(baby) why dont we live together?
Why dont we live together?
(baby) why dont we live together? (ooh ooh)
You wont believe in love until the day you try
(baby)
Without the love, love you feel inside

Why Me
(olivia newton-john)
Oh dont ask why me, why me why not me
Why not me is the thing
Dont ask why me, lifes running by me
Live each moment that it brings
Take the time to smell the roses
Take the time to watch the stars
Take the time to see your child grow
Daddy now I know
Daddy now I know
Oh dont ask why me, why me why not me
Yes time is going fast
Im starting to question, what is lifes intention?
Guess Ive been too scared to ask
But Im letting go, to God in his wisdom
Or whoever that may be
Nobody knows who plans your future
Or decides your destiny
Oh dont say why me
Oh dont say why me
Oh dont say why me
Oh dont say why me
Life does the strangest things
You never know
What each moment can bring
You turn around
Your life has changed
Youve got to fight each round
Yes take it on the chin
No dont you ever give in
Oh dont say why me, say life just try me
And grow from all your tears
Every obstacle before you
Is a tool to face your fears
Yes now I know, its time to slow down
Its the sign to take control
For too many years Ive been a victim
But daddy now I know
Daddy now I know
Oh dont say why me
Oh dont say why me
Oh dont say why me
Oh dont say why me
Youve got to fight each round take it on the chin
And never never never ever give in
Fight each round take it on the chin
And never never never ever give in
Daddy now I know

Since I Dont Have You
I dont have plans and schemes and I dont have hopes and dreams.
I dont have anything since I dont have you.
I dont have fond desires and I dont have happy hours.
I dont have anything since I dont have you.
I dont have happiness and I guess I never will again.
When you walked out on me in walked old misery,
And hes been here since then.
I dont have love to share and I dont have one who cares.
I dont have anything since I dont have you.
You, you...

Its Lonely Out There
(bob dipiero/pam tillis)
I cant make you stay, and boy I wouldnt want to
Go on walk away, but dont say I didnt warn you
Have you forgotten how it was
Before I wrapped you in my love
Its lonely, so lonely
Go on and get your share
But believe me baby
Its lonely out there
You think theres some adventure that youre missin
Some thrill undone or sweeter lips you could be kissin
So you wonder and you want to let go
Our love is dying for you to know
Its lonely, so lonely
Go on and get your share
But believe me baby
Its lonely out there
Theres people out there tryin to look like theyre havin fun
Do you really want to be one
Theyre just remembering what they had
Or waitin for their next chance at love
Love, love, love
Its lonely, so lonely
We got such a good thing here
Believe me, baby
Its lonely out there
Its lonely, so lonely
We got such a good thing here
Dont go now, baby
Its lonely out there

Selfish
Well, its too late for givin in
Ive been waitin for too long
Theres no way that I could lose
Givin me the love youve been holding back
Today Im not gonna wait
Not anymore, the time is now
Id give up everything
Just to have you for myself
Cuz when I think about it
Your love, your kiss
I never felt anything like this
Youre sent from above
Im so in love
When I think about it
Your touch, your smile
I never felt anything like this
And I know its real
Its just the way that I feel
Im just a little bit
Im selfish
I dont wanna share you with anybody else
Dont want them hugging you
Touching you, feeling you, kissing you
You could call me selfish
Im selfish
I dont want to share you with anybody else
I dont want no one around you
Calling you, paging you
You can call me selfish
Should I stop trippin and let it flow?
It happened a long time ago
Damn, boy you hurt me so
When you cheated on me with that other lady
Well, I felt embarassed and ashamed
And to top it, you called out her name
Keep thinking Im the one to blame
Still, I took you back
When I think about it
Your love, your kiss
I never felt anything like this
Youre sent from above
Im so in love
When I think about it
Your touch, your smile
I never felt anything like this
And I know its real
Its just the way that I feel
Im just a little bit
Im selfish
I dont wanna share you with anybody else
Dont want them hugging you
Touching you, feeling you, kissing you
You could call me selfish
Im selfish
I dont want to share you with anybody else
I dont want no one around you
Calling you, paging you
You can call me selfish
There are reasons why I care
The way you love me seems so unreal
There are times when I feel scared
Cuz you had a girl when we first met
I close my eyes and pray
That you would be more truthful baby
Be the love of my lifetime
Say that youll be mine
Im selfish
I dont wanna share you with anybody else
Dont want them hugging you
Touching you, feeling you, kissing you
You could call me selfish
Im selfish
I dont want to share you with anybody else
I dont want no one around you
Calling you, paging you
You can call me selfish
Im selfish
I dont wanna share you with anybody else
Dont want them hugging you
Touching you, feeling you, kissing you
You could call me selfish
Im selfish
I dont want to share you with anybody else
I dont want no one around you
Calling you, paging you
You can call me selfish
Im selfish
I dont wanna share you with anybody else
Dont want them hugging you
Touching you, feeling you, kissing you
You could call me selfish

From you telling lies so sweetly
Breaking my heart too neatly

You told me that you once loved me
And you placed yourself above me
Now I know you never loved me
I give up
I give up Im through with trying
I give up Im through with your lying
I give up Im through with you
I give up Ive done all I can do

Dont Ask A Friend
(olivia newton-john)
You say you want to know most everything about him
But babe, what youre saying is that you dont want to doubt him
If I told you all the truth you wouldnt want to see him anymore
But Im his friend as well and theres no way I can tell
Tales that will make you unsure
Dont ask a friend; dont make me tell a lie
Dont ask a friend to be your alibi
You know that I would like to help you patch it up again
Im your lonely hearts club friend
Dont ask a friend
Ive known him for so long to me hes like a brother
And if I needed help will I know thered be no other
But youre as close to me as any friend that I have ever known
Im caught up in between his devil and your dream
Please make your choice on your own
Dont ask a friend; dont make me tell a lie
Dont ask a friend to be your alibi
You know that I would like to help you patch it up again
Im your lonely hearts club friend
Dont ask a friend

Its Lonely
Written by orbison/melson
Every sleepy dawn wakes to find you gone,and its lonely.
All my sunny days, laugh and run away, its lonely.
(oh so lonely)
The sun dont really shine,its lonely.
Always to remind me that its only another day,
To feel this way.its lonely.lonely.
I am lonely all the time, youre not mine.
Without you I find,its lonely.
Each new starry sky, smiles and says goodbye,its lonely.
Dreams we used to share tell me you dont care, its lonely.
The moon has lost its glow, its lonely.
It is there to show me that its only another night,
I cant hold you tight, its lonely.lonely.
I know why I cry, for all the world to see.
Youre not here with me. its lonely,lonely,lonely.

Laugh With The World But Weep Alone!
LAUGH WITH THE WORLD
BUT WEEP ALONE!
I have come to bear my own cross,
And to weep alone and dry my tears!
For this sad old world have troubles
galore,
With no time to spare for me or despair!
When I laugh the world laughs with me,
And is ever ready to share my happy times;
But in my hour of grief they shrug and say, -
' A friend in grief is no friend of mine! '
Yet our tears get attached to our joys
and mirth,
Happy moments always bring tears to
our eyes!
For my tears celebrate those short-lived
hours,
Since only happines can never be mine!
So tears flow in silence without a sound,
Knowing that it can't be the other way round!
For when I weep I must weep alone,
With none to share my grief and despair!
This one way traffic is an erroneous rule,
Which mistakenly many believe and share!
With my tears I try to cleanse my soul,
A soul which truly belongs to me!
And those crystal drops reflects the
rainbow,
A grand view my soul gets to see!
But when I share my tears with other's,
I lessen their grief and give them hope;
In caring and sharing we are twice blessed,
Strengthening the bond between human folks!
But should we only share the good times,
While refraining from sharing other's sorrow
and pain,
Our happiness gets all confined,
And our living becomes all in vain!
With a soul which is never blessed,
An uncleansed soul which is left unclean,
That rainbow remains out of sight!
And salvation a distant dream!

Dont Tell Me
(graham russell, michael sherwood, jimmy haun)
You were late last night, the candle burned so low
And in my darkest hour I knew you had to go
Did he hold you like I held you once before
Is there someone else that loves you even more
Dont tell me
Standing face to face the words just fall away
But in my loneliness I knew just what to say
Did he touch you where I touched you long ago
Please dont answer, I dont really want to know
So dont tell me
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
I have no more to give you
I have no room to share
I know the road I follow going nowhere
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
Should I close my eyes and say Im giving up
Can we compromise the darker side of love
Did he hold you like I held you once before
Since I lost your love I need you even more
Dont tell me lies
I have no more to give you
I have no room to share
I know the road I follow going nowhere
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
