Noctournal Emissions
Well I'm lying in bed sweating staring at the ceiling, in my brain I have painted a beautiful picture of you, I'm not even going to try to fall asleep tonight, I don't want to lost the picture in my mind, in my mind.
[ Chorus ]
Then I close my eyes and quickly drift away
magically transported to another time and place
hold away
magically transported to another time and place
hold you in my arms and we go whirling through the air
going all four directions, heading straight for nowhere
I wake up in cold sweat come to grips with reality
take a deep breath lay back down wearing my badge of infamy
when the bulb in my nightlight flickers, flickers, flickers and dies, I'm left alone, staring at my ceiling once again
[ Chorus ]
It's my nocturnal emission

My Devil You Were
I keep telling myself that I don't need you
but you keep whispering in my ear telling me that I do
and I believe you
I believe everything you say
even though it was everything you said
I paint the picture of you on my white ceiling when I'm lying alone in my bed
I paint the picture of you on my white ceiling when I'm lying alone in my bed
Because no other girl has been here since you left
and for no other girl have I shead a tear, I'm all cried out I have none left
cause I know you love to think that you took them all
but they were gone long before
for you I didn't watch a single one fall, I was never alive I was already dead
I paint the picture of you on my white ceiling when I'm lying alone in my bed
I paint the picture of you on my white ceiling when I'm lying alone in my bed
and I paint it red
I paint it red
the colour of blood shows that it is already dead
I keep telling myself that I don't need you
but you keep whispering in my ear telling me that I do
and I believe you
I believe everything is red
even though it was everything you said
I paint the picture of you on my white ceiling when I'm lying alone in my bed
and it is all red
he paints it red
my picture of his horns it shows its now never dead.

Vision In My Mind
I lie awake in the heart of the night,
I just cant rest til youre by my side
Staring at the ceiling, scared to close my eyes
I gotta let you know youre the vision in my mind
So many lonely nights still as the pale moon light
Drift in a river of dreams, together, you and i
Flow forever, any tide of the motion
I will promise complete devotion
And love will never compromise
Something so sacred cant be denied
Chorus:
Gotta let you know youre the vision in my mind, girl
With heart and soul, every second of my times for you
Been hurt before, I know youre holding back your feelings, girl
Please realize Id be the one to change your world
I see that look in your eyes, been hurt just too many times
And like the healing hand of time
Im gonna dry every tear you cry
Id tear down the walls of isolation, oh, baby, believe I belong
The love is pure, the love is so strong
Give me the chance to prove I am wrong
Repeat chorus twice
I lie awake in the heart of the night
Just cant rest til youre by my side
Staring at the ceiling, scared to close my eyes
I gotta let you know youre the vision in my mind
Repeat chorus to fade

Just Staring...
This is just
one of those nights
I wake up
in the middle of the night
just staring
up the ceiling
so cold and dark.
Not looking for any answers
not thinking of anything
just staring...
just staring...
until I fall back
to sleep.

Heart Of Innocence
Sometimes I wake up in the dark of night
And in my mind theres a picture of you
I know someday this dream will come alive
So for now your shadow will do
Ive never seen your face
But I know your in my heart
Maybe someday some place
Ill hold you in my arms
Chorus
I have a gift for you
Something that Ive held on to
Waiting for your sweet caress
The ribbon has beed on tight
For all that I hold inside
And only you will possess
This heart of innocence
I lay my head down on a pillow of white
Your in the dark I am cradled in peace
No thoughts from yesterday to haunt me at night
No tears to dry, no sad memories
It isnt hard to hold
And now Ill safely keep
The strength thats in my soul
Until you come to me
Chorus
Every night I make a wish before I fall asleep
That destiny will take your hand
And lead you to me
Chorus
[spoken] I love you

One Of Us
They passed me by, all of those great romances
You were, I felt, robbing me of my rightful chances
My picture clear, everything seemed so easy
And so I dealt you the blow
One of us had to go
Now its different, I want you to know
One of us is crying
One of us is lying
In her lonely bed
Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely
One of us is only
Waiting for a call
Sorry for herself, feeling stupid feeling small
Wishing she had never left at all
I saw myself as a concealed attraction
I felt you kept me away from the heat and the action
Just like a child, stubborn and misconceiving
Thats how I started the show
One of us had to go
Now Ive changed and I want you to know
One of us is crying
One of us is lying
In her lonely bed
Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely
One of us is only
Waiting for a call
Sorry for herself, feeling stupid feeling small
Wishing she had never left at all
Never left at all
Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely
One of us is only
Waiting for a call

Missing You
Missing you
( rick giles / susan longacre 9
I live for the phone I die for the mail
I took your picture right off the nail
And put it right by my bed
So I could see you instead
Of the darkness of night
I hold conversations with you in my mind
They only tighten this knot deep inside
And the aching won't end
'til I hold you again
If I only suvive
Chorus:
Why did you have to go
Why am I missing you so
One heartbeat at a time
I'm going out of my mind
Missing you, missing you.
I started a letter, I stared at your name
There wasn't a line that didn't echo my pain
There was no sound at all
But the slow lonely fall
Of an unspoken tear
Chorus
Life may take us in different directions
But I always end up deeper, deeper in my true affection
Chorus

Time After Time
Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
And think of you
Caught up in circles
Confusion is nothing new
Flashback--warm nights--
Almost left behind
Suitcases of memories,
Time after--
Sometimes you picture me--
I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, I can't hear
What you've said
Then you say--go slow--
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds
Chorus:
If you're lost you can look, and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you, I'll be waiting
Time after time
After my picture fades and darkness has
Turned to gray
Watching through windows, you're wondering
If I'm OK
Secrets stolen from deep inside
The drum beats out of time
Chorus:
If you're lost you can look, and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you, I'll be waiting
Time after time
You said go slow,
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds
Chorus:
If you're lost you can look, and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you, I'll be waiting
Time after time
...time after time
time after time
time after time
time after time

Make Tonight Beautiful
I've been waiting
To taste your kiss
Touch you in the dark
Hold you to my heart
I've been hoping
For that moment
We'd be making love
Now the time has come
Come with me tonight
Share my dreams
Change my life...
(chorus)
Make tonight beautiful
Make tonight something more
Than any night i've ever known
In my life before
Make tonight beautiful
Hold me close and dont let go
Lay with me and stay with me tonight
Make tonight a beautiful night
Turn the lights down
Tonight theres a world of love
Waiting there for us
Let me take you
To that place youve never been before
Open up the door
To a dream come true
Take my hand and show me how to...
(chorus)
Make tonight beautiful
Make tonight something more
Than any night ive ever known
In my life before
Make tonight beautiful
Hold me close and dont let go
Lay with me and stay with me tonight
Make tonight a beautiful night
And show me all the magic
The night can bring
You see youre my door to heaven
Youre all i need
I've waited all my life
To look into your eyes
So stay with me
Make love to me
And make tonight beautiful
(chorus)
Make tonight beautiful
Make tonight something more
Than any night i've ever known
In my life before
Make tonight beautiful
Hold me close and dont let go
Lay with me and stay with me
Lay with me and stay with me tonight
Make tonight a beautiful night

Stereo World
Staring at the ideal world
The bubble begins to break
Gazing at the ceiling cracks
The more the picture fades
Its just that I cant see
When Im down like this
I just feel the weight
As I try to resist
Chorus:
It doesnt matter when I can dream away
Life in a stereo world
Something happens, I drift away
Floating out of sync again
Reaching for a cloud

I Dont Wonna Know
I dont wonna know
I dont wonna know
Your eyes were covered
In sunglasses
When they first met mine
I sat there and started at you
You didnt seem to mind
The arkward ways we meet
First comes heavy breathing
Staring at the ceiling
What will happen next
I dont wonna know
I never cared how I dressed before
But I cared that night
Anticipation ran through my bones
And my clothes never fit right
I cant wait till we meet again
First comes heavy breathing
Staring at the ceiling
What will happen next
I dont wonna know
Framed pictures start to appear on the walls
Constant visits while Im out on the road
Its hard to leave sometimes
But you know where I lay my head at night
First comes heavy breathing
Staring at the ceiling
What will happen next
I dont wonna know
I dont wonna know
(I dont wonna know)
First comes heavy breathing
(First comes heavy breathing)
Staring at the ceiling
(staring at the ceiling)
What will happen next
I dont wonna know
I dont wonna know

Wait Until the Flame Flickers
When the trouble you start goes on...
You're the one who tries to leave it.
When the heat you strike,
Begins to ignite an invited...
Long lasting chance to burn.
And that's what you come to me to get!
A stirring up of an argument.
Yelling and screaming.
To later be together close...
And in nakedness.
You want this inside you,
Deep and thick!
'I don't get it.'
Then you don't need it!
I mean I've got it when you give it.
But when it's given...
'Who are you when that happens?
Where does that 'you' I know go? '
When the trouble you start goes on...
You're the one who tries to leave it.
When the heat you strike,
Begins to ignite an invited...
Long lasting chance to burn.
You wait until the flame flickers.
And the poppin' of it stops.
You wait until the flame flickers.
With a need to cheat to start.
You wait until the flame flickers.
When no heat is meant to be.
You wait until the flame flickers.
And the poppin' of it stops.
You wait until the flame flickers.
With a need to cheat to start.
You waited until the flame flickers.
When no heat is meant to be...
For you from me,
Left here to be used to give.
Now...
Now.
Now...it's gone!

Ghost Of You
I will wait until the end
When the pendulum will swing back to the
Darker side of our hearts bleeding
I will save this empty space
Next to me like it's a grave
Where I lay a place for us to sleep eternally together
I am there
Searching for
Traces of
What we were
[chorus]
The ghost of you
Is all that I have left
It's all that I have left of you
To hold
I wake in the night to find
There's no one there but me
And nothing left of what we were at all...
So here I am
Pacing around this house again
With pictures of us living
On these walls
I see my breath in the cold of the air that I breathe and I'm wondering
I'm wondering if it's you that I feel
If it's you that I feel here haunting me forever
[chorus]
And I'm not looking for
Anything but us
Anything but what we were
And I'm not asking for
Painted memories
I only want to know you're here
[chorus] x2

Until You Suffer Some
Lately i can tell that something ain't right
I don't see the fire when i look in your eyes
One time up, and the next time down
This may be the last time that you see me around, said
Well it sure seems to me nothing matters tonight
And all those things we worked out, they got lost in the fight
It's not enough, girl, that i gave you my soul
I just want to know if we've got anything left at all, and i say
Chorus:
Hold on now, baby.
This could be the last time we stand
This could be the last time that we say good-bye
The picture shatters
I can't find the words to save it
Tell me what to do, how can i make it right
We will always be fire and ice
Well promises made in the heat of the night
You could sure spit them out, girl, but they've long passed me by
Nobody knows about the show you put me through
This could be the last time that i get through to you
Chorus
Well i can't stand to see no more damage done
But you'll never understand until you suffer some, and i said....

Never have you painted more beautiful
You have never painted more beautiful
than last night
and young black woman
with curling hair
standing next to each other
look as if three
comes magically from one body
and they stare with big eyes at me.
Maybe the paintings
are comic picture beautiful
and you thought
that the one
with the pumpkin on the head
is the most beautiful
and there were others
wearing gourds
and I wanted to smile
when you asked
if it is art
or only craft.

When Love Gets a Hold of You - Reba McEntire
vs.1 It's all around you now, but you don't know it.
It's tugging at your heart, but you don't show it.
It's just a matter of time,
It's gonna hit you right between the eyes.
(chorus)
You'll wake up in the middle of the night,
I'll be the only thing on your mind,
Won't be able to shake it loose,
When love gets a hold of you.
Before you have your first cup of coffee,
You're gonna pick up the phone and call me,
Won't believe what you say and do,
When love gets a hold of you.
vs.2 'Cause it's gonna be written all over your face,
All your friends gonna tell you how much you've changed.
Feeling things that you can't deny,
Going crazy and you don't know why.
(chorus)
Bridge: It gets a hold of you,
It's just a matter of time,
It's gonna hit you right between the eyes.
(chorus 2)
You're driving home at the end of the day,
You'll find yourself coming by my place,
Yeah, you always have a good excuse,
When love gets a hold of you.
Once you're standing inside my door,
Won't remember what you came here for,
Can't control what you say and do,
When love gets a hold of you.
Yeah, gets a hold of you.
Gets a hold of you.
Gets a hold of you.
Oh, it gets a hold of you.

Up And Flying
That old picture with my arm around you
Tore it to pieces this morning at two
Score one for me
I took your portrait off the living room wall
Then I started on the ones in the hall
Had a bonfire
I decided it was time to forget
So I got rid of every picture you left
Chorus:
But what do I do with this picture of you in my mind
I close my eyes and I still see you saying goodbye
I know I'd be okay if I could just throw away
This picture
I walk alone down a crowded street
And see your face in everybody I meet
When's it gonna end
Every single night I crawl into bed
Hoping sleep will keep you out of my head
I should know better
Everytime I turn around here you are
I never thought your memory would go this far

You Came To My Senses
I picture you on the beach
Lying in the sand
Out of reach of my trembling hands
I picture you in a car
Blonde hair in the wind
I picture you in my arms
And the touch of your skin
The smile on your face
The way that you taste
(chorus)
You come to my senses
Every time I close my eyes
I have no defenses
You come to my senses
I cant stop this ache inside
I have no defenses
You come to my senses
Driving home in the cold
January rain
Ive got to find my way out of this pain
I reached for you in the night
I dreamed of your kiss
I woke before it got light
With your name on my lips
Alone in my bed
Your voice in my head
(chorus)
I picture you in my arms
And the touch of your skin
The smile on your face
The way that you taste
You come to my senses
Every time I close my eyes
I have no defenses
You come to my senses
I cant stop this ache inside
Oh, I have no defenses
You come to my senses
Ah...

Spanish Eyes
(andrew fromm/sandy linzer)
Here we are in the arms of one another
And we still go on searching for each other
Knowing that hate is wrong and love is
Right for us tonight
When I look into your spanish eyes
I know the reason why I am alive
And the world is so beautiful tonight
Chorus
Its a place Ive never been
And it comes from deep within
And its telling me that Im about to win first prize
Knowing all I have to do
Is reach out my hand to you
Anytime I want to look into your spanish eyes
Let it be if were nothing more than dreamers
Who believe that we see no wall between us
How can they be in my heart and in my mind,
When all I could find
When I look into your spanish eyes
I know the reason why I am alive
And the world is so beautiful tonight

I loved you from a distance
Thought I couldnt reach that far
I cant believe how close that we are
When I look into your spanish eyes
And the world is so beautiful tonight
