My Shoes Keep Walking Back To You
I might say that I dont care
Hold my head up in the air
Even tell my friends Im glad that you dont call
But when the day is through
Thats when my heartaches start anew
And thats when I miss you most of all
And my arms keep reaching for you
And my eyes keep searching for you
And my lips keep calling for you
And my shoes keep walking back to you
No matter how much I pretend
I wish I had you back again
cause nothin means half as much as you
My world just seemed to die
The day you said goodbye
And I cant forget no matter what I do
And my arms keep reaching for you
And my eyes keep searching for you
And my lips keep calling for you
And my shoes keep walking back to you

Dont Look Back
Woman left for another man
Took youre car and a steely dan
Theres only one thing to do
Keep on walking and dont look back
Head on down to the chicken shack
Go and act like a maniac
Keep on walking and dont look back
Had a little trouble with a guy at work
Got a great big mouth for a little jerk
Got a lot of bills one check wont pay
And a love thats real is fading away
Theres only one thing to do
Keep on walking and dont look back
Head on down to the chicken shack
Go and act like a maniac
Keep on walking and dont look back
Keep on walking and dont look back
Dont you just sing the blues
Keep on walking and never look back
Put on your walking shoes
Keep on walking and dont look back, never look back
Just chalk it up to history, set yourself free
Keep on walking and dont look back
Head on down to the chicken shack
Go and act like a maniac
Keep on walking and dont look back

Dont Look Back
How does it feel up there
Breathing in the fine air
You cant look down
But you do not care
When every face knows
The lonely place youve become
And you can dream up there
With your soul laid bare
And close your eyes
On the life you share
And you can pretend that it wont mean a thing
When its gone
Cuz now you see
Youre so good looking
You should be on tv
But now youre on the radio
Dont look back
Dont look back
When you hear me calling
Dont look back
Dont look back
Dont look back
Dont look back
When you hear me calling
Dont look back
Dont look back
How does it feel up there
Breathing in the fine air
You cant look down
But you do not care
When every face knows
The lonely place youve become
And you can dream up there
With your soul laid bare
And close your eyes
On the life that you share
And you can pretend that it wont mean a thing
When its gone
Cuz now you see
Youre so good looking
You should be on tv
But now youre on the radio
Dont look back

When you hear me calling
Dont look back
Dont look back
Dont look back
Dont look back
When you hear me calling
Dont look back
Dont look back
When you hear me calling you
When you hear me calling you
When you hear me calling you
I know that nobody knows
Where it comes from
Or where it goes
Or the time you will find
Dont look back
Dont look back
When you hear me calling
Dont look back
Dont look back
Dont look back

Calling Back My Spirit
Something has been sleeping in me, weeping in me, creeping in me
Something has been crying in me, sighing in me, dying in me
In the righting of this wrong, I may have to fight a long awaited duel
Im calling back my spirit from you, Im calling back what is my own.
Something has been burning in me, churning in me, turning in me
Something has been weeping in me, creeping in me, awaking in me
And in the execution of this task, I may come to see my enemys mask
Slip and fall
Im calling back my spirit from you, Im calling back what my own
Im calling back, Im calling back,
Im calling back my spirit from you, Im calling back what is my own
The storm of your outrage seethes and whips around my brittle bones
Anger and violence erupt from your lips and your cover is blown!
I seek the sound of your name
I stand in my own footsteps and I claim my power
Im calling back my spirit from you, Im calling back what is my own
Im calling back, Im calling back, Im calling back, Im calling back,
Im calling back my spirit from you now!, Im calling back what is my own

The Shoes Youre Wearing
Weve all seen enough wrong and right
To know everythings not black and white
Theres always something in between
No matter how long or well you live
You dont get anything you dont give
Still no slate is clean
For better or worse, anybody can
Take a look around and find a better man
Upright no matter how hes faring
No matter what kind of shoes hes wearing
The shoes hes wearing
They dont make the man
So many people out running around
Handicapped before they hit the ground
Thinking theres nowhere to go
Shouldnt we all be looking for ways
To keep on seeing our better days
Were not chained to what we know
But if your eyes are open and your mind is free
Theres no tellin what a man can be
Upright no matter how youre faring
No matter what kind of shoes youre wearing
The shoes youre wearing
They dont make the man
But if you cant walk through the best of times and the worst of times
Find your feet still walking the line
Youll never carry the load worth bearing
No matter what kind of shoes youre wearing
The shoes youre wearing
They wont make the man
The shoes youre wearing
They wont make the man

Cant Get Over You
Ive heard it said before,
That you dont care no more,
You just pick up tracks,
And dont look back,
And walk right out that door.
I tell my friends its easy,
Shes never on my mind.....
My life is so much better
Since that day I said good-bye
And i tell myself Im free
But Im only foolin me
Cause no matter what I do...
I cant get over you
Well I tried to hide my pain,
With a taste of fast lane,
But aint no use... to shake you loose...
I still feel the same
I thought I could forget you
But that was just a lie,
Im just not the same without you...
I dont even want to try....
And i tell myself Im free
But Im only foolin me
Cause no matter what I do...
I cant get over you
I cant get over you
Solo:
Bridge:
I dont know how it started
I dont know where I stand
I just want to be back in your arms once again
And i tell myself Im free
But Im only foolin me
Cause no matter what I do...
I cant get over you
I cant get over you
I cant get over you

She Never Lets It Go To Her Heart
Everywhere I go, theyre staring at her
Every man I know he wants to have her
I guess I ought to be a jealous man
I look the other way, theyre hittin on her
Every night and every day, they telephone her
They try to get to her but I know they cant
Chorus
She never lets it go to her heart
She never lets it go that far
When they start talking she starts walking
Right back to my arms
She can turn every head
But she never lets it go to her heart
She walks into the room and everybody watches every move
Hoping she dont love me
I know it by the way they hang around
But they dont realize theres more to her than
What meets the eye thats why Im certain
No matter what they do to reach her now
Repeat chorus
When they start talking she starts walking
Right back to my arms
She can turn every head
But she never lets it go to her heart

Jimi Thing
Lately Ive been feeling low
A remedy is what Im seeking
I take a taste of whats below
Come away to something better
What I want is what Ive not got
And what I need
Is all around me
Reaching searching never stop
And Ill say...
If you could keep me floating
Just for a while
Till I get to the end of this tunnel mommy
If you could keep me floating
Just for a while
Ill get back to you
Sometimes a jimi thing slides my way and keeps me swinging
Id like to show you whats inside
And I shouldnt care
If you dont like it
Brother chaos rule all about
Sometimes I walk there
Well yes God knows sometimes I take a bus there
Shouldnt care shouldnt care
Bereaved as Im feeling
The day is gone
Im on my back
Staring up at the ceiling
U take a drink sit back relax
Smoke my mind make me feel
Better for a small time
What I want is what Ive not got
And what I need is all around me
Reaching searching never stop
And Ill say...
If you could keep me floating
Just for a while
Till I get to the end of this tunnel mommy
If you could keep me floating
Just for a while
Ill get back to you

When Are You Coming Back?
(l. stansfield/i. devaney/ a. morris)
Chorus:
Tell me when youre coming back
When are you comin back, when are you coming back
When are you comin back, when are you coming back
(when are you comin home, baby, baby)
When are you comin back, when are you coming back
When are you comin back, when are you coming back
You were in my arms yesterday, and now youre gone
I still feel your lips on mine, still feel your touch
Safe inside your arms is where I want to be, cant stand this space
Boy, Im gettin lonely, and out of place
Dont stray for too long
(till the next time)
Go back to my arms
Dont stray for too long
(till the next time)
Go back to my arms
Chorus
I sit here and wait patently for the telephone
Funny how I miss you, and I miss you so
When youre not at home
Dont stray for too long

Go back to my arms
Dont stray for too long
(till the next time)
Go back to my arms

Back To The Light
Far, far from the light
Here the night creatures call
In the cold breath they howl
And the hollow tears, theyre calling you
Ill be there, though maybe you wont see my babe
Ill still care, no mater where Ill still be there
When you make to the other side
Lord Im going back, back to the light
Back to the dreams that are paved with gold
Back to the light
Back to the land, where the sunshine heals my soul
Deep, deep in the night
When the world fils with tears
And the wind grows, colder and colder it grows
And the fire dimes, with the same old fears
Ill be there, no matter what youre going through
In the dark I care, Im holding on, Im hoping on
Its still the same old me inside#
Lord Im going back, back to the light
Back to the dreams that are paved with gold
Back to the light
Back to the land, where the sunshine heals my soul
On and on, searching for the clearer view
Winning and loosing an inner war
Wondering what we do it for
Though the road seems never ending
Hold on to the hope Im sending through
No matter where youre going to
Ill be there
Im holding on, believe it
Well be walking in the light
cos therell be no place left to hide
Back to the light
Back to the dreams that are paved with gold
Back to the light
Back to the land, where the sunshine heals my soul
Let me hear you babes - yeah, yeah, yeah

Don't Look Back
How does it feel up there
breathing in the fine air
You can't look down
but you do not care
when every face knows
the lonely place you've become
And you can dream up there
with your soul laid bare
and close your eyes
on the life you share
and you can pretend that it won't mean a thing
when it's gone
Cuz now you see
you're so good looking
you should be on TV
but now you're on the radio
don't look back
don't look back
when you hear me calling
don't look back
don't look back
don't look back

when you hear me calling you
I know that nobody knows
where it comes from
or where it goes
or the time you will find

I Cant Hold Back
Theres a story in my eyes
Turn the pages of desire
Now its time to trade those dreams
For the rush of passions fire
I can feel you tremble when we touch
And I feel the hand of fate
Reaching out to both of us
Ive been holding back the night
Ive been searching for a clue from you
Im gonna try with all my might
To make this story line come true
Can ya feel me tremble when we touch
Can ya feel the hand of fate
Reaching out to both of us
This love affair cant wait
*i cant hold back, Im on the edge
(I cant hold back)
You voice explodes inside my head
I cant hold back, I wont back down
Girl its too late to turn back now*
Another shooting star goes by
And in the night the silence speaks to you and i
And now the time has come at last
Dont let the moment run too fast
I can feel you tremble when we touch
And I feel the hand of fate reaching out to both of us
Theres a story in my eyes, turn the pages of desire
Now its time to trade those dreams
For the rush of passions fire

Its christmas time
And Im lonely
Here yknow the living
Aint easy
If you forget
The power to love
I said
Dont give up
Dont give up
If only I could
See you once again
If only to put
My lips against you again
Dont hold back
The power to love
Dont hold back
From the pluck of the lyre
In the arms of desire
It was dry
And a fine day
When we first came ashore
I wasnt really
Sure what I was looking for
Tracks of my mind
Made the tracks of my arms
Seemed a lot more of a curse
To make matters worse
I was lonely for you
So lonely for you
Baby yeah
So lonely
Oh if I should
See you once again
If only to press
My lips to yours
Aaaaah
Dont give up
The power to love
And dont hold back
The power to love
Dont hold back ah yeah
From the pluck of the lyre
In the arms of desire
And the tracks of my mind
Seemed more like a curse baby
Right there and then
I saw or swore I could see
With my own two eyes
Yo lying eyes
Yo lying eyes
Yes right there and then
It made the tracks of my mind
A lot more of a curs
Oh lonely for you
Baby yeah
So lonely for you
Baby yeah
So lonely for you
Baby yeah
And the tracks of my mind
Seemed more like a curse
The tracks of my mind
Seemed more like a curse baby
I was lonely for you
Baby yeah
So lonely for you
Baby yeah
So lonely for you

Shelter
Just come softly to me
I the shelter of my heart
I watch you from my window, working this vicious road
You shudder when the wind blows,
Girl youre looking beat and cold
Dont know your situation, but you look so alone to me
In my imagination this is how the message reads
(reaching out for youre love, for youre love babe)
Just come softly to me,
(reaching out.. calling out for youre love, for youre love babe)
In the shelter of my heart
Trust my intuition youre the one Ive got to know
I give without condition wouldnt try to save youre soul
Money or reputation doesnt mean a thing to me
Special communication its the only thing we need
Reaching out... calling out
Just come softly to me
Calling out... hear me now
In the shelter of my heat
(reaching out.. calling out for yore love, for youre love babe)
Calling out... hear me now
Just come softly to me
(calling out.. calling out for youre love babe)
Hear me now... do you read me?
In the shelter of my heart.
-
Here is no hurt to feel
Here is safe for lips unsealed
In the shelter of my heart
Reaching out, for your love, for your love babe
(just come softly to me)
Reaching out, calling out for your love, for your love babe
(in the shelter of my heart)

Moorland Night
My face is against the grass - the moorland grass is wet -
My eyes are shut against the grass, against my lips there are the little blades,
Over my head the curlews call, And now there is the night wind in my hair;
My heart is against the grass and the sweet earth, - it has gone still, at last;
It does not want to beat any more,
And why should it beat?
This is the end of the journey.
The Thing is found.
This is the end of all the roads -
Over the grass there is the night-dew
And the wind that drives up from the sea along the moorland road,
I hear a curlew start out from the heath
And fly off calling through the dusk,
The wild, long, rippling call -:
The Thing is found and I am quiet with the earth;
Perhaps the earth will hold it or the wind, or that bird's cry,
But it is not for long in any life I know. This cannot stay,
Not now, not yet, not in a dying world, with me, for very long;
I leave it here:
And one day the wet grass may give it back -
One day the quiet earth may give it back -
The calling birds may give it back as they go by -
To someone walking on the moor who starves for love and will not know
Who gave it to all these to give away;
Or, if I come and ask for it again
Oh! then, to me.

Back In Your Arms Again
(from the video blood brothers)
You said once I was your treasure, and I saw your face in every store
The promises we make at night, oh thats all they are
Unless we fill them with faith and love theyre emty as a howlin wind.
Now darlin I just wanna be
Back in your arms, back in your arms again..
Back in your arms, back in your arms again.
Back in your arms, back in your arms again.
You came to me with love and kindness, but all my life Ive been a prisoner
Of my own blindness
I met you with indifference, and I dont know why.
Now I wake from my dream, I wake from my dream to this world.
Where all the shadow and darkness and a dark sky unfurls.
And all the love Ive thrown away and lost, honey Im longing for again.
Now theres nothing that I wouldnt do if I could be
Back in your arms, back in your arms again.
Back in your arms, back in your arms again.
Back in your arms, back in your arms again.
Back in your arms
(alternative firstverse)
In my dream my love was lost, I lived by luck and faith.
I carried you inside of me, and praied it wouldnt be to late.
Now Im standin on this empty road, where nothin moves but the wind...

Words
Can you feel it when
Your throat dries?
Can you see it in the night sky?
Just a mumble round at tea time
Smile
When Im watching you
When I was a child
We were living in fear
Living in fear
When I was a child
Just a light year from here
Living in fear
Worlds may shatter
Years dont matter
Words came back to haunt you
Worlds may shatter
Years dont matter
Words came back to haunt you
Friends past missing
Reminiscing
Words came back to haunt you
Tolerating propaganda
And your girlfriend, alexandra
With her secret memoranda
Signs
For an interview
Searching for the light
In the world of the blahs
Masquerading as stars
How can this be right?
Youve been going too far
Leaving conscience ajar
Worlds may shatter
Years dont matter
Words came back to haunt you
Friends past missing
Reminiscing
Words came back to haunt you
When I was a child
We were living in fear
Living in fear
Worlds may shatter
Years dont matter
Words came back to haunt you
Worlds may shatter
Years dont matter
Words came back to haunt you
Friends past missing
Reminiscing
Words came back to haunt you
Worlds may shatter
Years dont matter

A Mother and her Dead Child
Looking back
it seemed
the child
was not to be
always there,
not through lack
of love or care,
but something
that came to her
in dreams of dread
at night asleep in bed.
She tries to retake
in dreams
the child back,
to pretend
that through
wishful thinking
she can make up
the lack.
Arms fold
into cradle
as once they had
when child lay
in arm's hold,
snuggled
and warm,
alive and moving,
seeking out with
eyes and fingers
her mother's dug.
Rock-abye-baby
no more,
the arms
and hands
redundant,
the last time
she recalls
the dead child
in arms,
rocking
back and forth,
as if this might cure
and bring back
to life,
might stir open
eyes, jog open
lips and mouth
to suck.
Not to be
just the memory,
ill luck.

Nothin Else
I was just walking that day
Aimlessly
(oh, oh no)
You picked a perfect day
To bump into me
(perfect day, mmm)
Probably shouldve watched the stars in the sky
The night before
(heey, hey)
But for some reason
We still met at your store
(you, baby)
Your eyes have a story that they wish to tell
And I have my whole life
And I listen well
(hey)
Look, Ill be your confidant
Tell me anything
But please start it off with how you tuck your wings
(ohhh ooo ohh)
Theres nothing else that I have seen
Theres no getting around it
Or in between
Youre out of this world
Except youre not green
Look
You dont know what you mean
To me
To me
All my friends meet you and say
Youre the one
(youre the one, youre the one... hey ooo)
And all my meaningless friendships should be done
(I should just leave them alone, baby, eh heh)
You had a friend
But he did you wrong
But Im a godsent saint
That reads
Please move on
With me
(with me)
You taught me to use my heart
And forget my eyes
(use my heart... forget my eyes.. mmm)
And thats the way
To his kingdom of eternal light
(ooh eh heh hehhh)
Since youre an angel, baby
Your jobs never done
Too bad the world will see you
When they dial 9-1-1
(thats why..)
Theres nothin else that I have seen
Theres no getting around it
Or in between
Youre out of this world
Except youre not green
Look
You dont know what you mean
To me
(to me, to me, to me)
To me
Theres nothin else that I have seen
Theres no getting around it
Or in between
Youre out of this world
Except youre not green
Look
You dont know what you mean
To me
(to me, to me, to me)
To me
Theres nothin else in this world
(nothin else)
Like you
(yeah)
So why is it so complicated?
(so complicated)
What are you afraid of?
(oooh, ooh)
Ive been asking everybody
What they think
(yeah, yeah)
But I dont know why
Because they dont know you
(oooh, ooh)
Im even asking other guys
What would they say
(yeah, yeah)
But I dont know why
cause they dont do what I do
(oooh, ooh)
Girl, lets save the ultimatum for you
(yeah-yeah, yeah)
But youd probably take that
And just run

Now I gotta decide if imma help raise your mind
See the ultimatums or me
Thats no fun

It Dont Matter
(tommy lee james)
Weve got a nice little house on a quiet little street
But it dont matter
A two garage with a new cherokee
But it dont matter
Chorus:
Cause we dont ever seem to talk anymore
And you dont hold me like you did before
Weve got everything we wanted and more
But now I know and now I see
Nothing matters if you dont love me
Weve given twelve precious years of our lives
But it dont matter
And I guess for awhile we were both satisfied
But it dont matter
It wouldnt be easy to walk out tonight
But it dont matter
And I know I would miss you if you said goodbye
But it dont matter
