Other Light
Never tell your friends
Theyll never understand
Confessions only burn themselves in the fire
Choke on every word
That no ones ever heard
Your sentimental thoughts are strangled and tired
See it in another light
Youll see it working out alright
I know I wont change any mind
As long as theyre still changing mine
As simple as they can
Theyre telling you again
What they think youve done is so unbecoming
But you dont have to take
Every old mistake
And always see it as a fall while youre running
Saw it in other light
I saw it work out alright
I know I wont change your mind
As long as theyre changing mine

They Dont Make em Like They Used To
Its every young boys fancy
Its there hidden deep in the heart of a man
Its just a feeling
They wont ever understand
They know they gotta have one
A brand new model and its here today
And dont you know that shes made right here in the u.s.a.
(chorus)
Dont ever stop trying
Dont let her get away
They dont make em like they used to
I think theyre better than before
Its more than physical attraction
Keeps you coming back for more
Shes a home grown beauty
Shes born and raised with a mind of her own
And once you find her
Youll never want to leave her alone
Shes making you crazy
You cant live without her, shes here to stay
Dont you know that she lives right here in the u.s.a.
Chorus
They dont make em like they used to
Theyre so much better than before
Im so tired of hearing--(Im so tired)
Some people say--(what people say)
Everything is moving much too fast
Things were better in the good old days
Let them have their opinions--(let them have...)
Never gonna change their mind--(theyll never change)
They lived a long time ago
When times were tough
And a real good woman was hard to find
They dont make em like they used to
I think theyre better than before
Its more than physical attraction
That keeps you coming back for more
Chorus
They dont make em like they used to
Theyre so much better than before

Thats The Way That It Is
Ive been thinking about
What you said last night
And for all your fine words
You still dont have it right
cause thats the way that it is
And you wont ever change
You can scream at me
But the powers that be
Wont ever hear your voice
cause theyre lost
In their own importance
No, theyll never hear your voice
cause thats the way that it is
And you wont ever change it
Ive heard all your stories
Of how the few can be strong
And how youll fight to the end
Just to prove me wrong
cause thats the way that you are
And you wont ever change it
But dont come cryin to me
If your fanciful schemes
Dont turn out like you planned
cause youre chasin
After something
That keeps slippin
Through your hand
Thats the way that it is
And you wont change it

Change Of Habit
(words & music by b. kaye - b. weisman)
If youre in old habits
Set in your old ways
Changes are a-comin
For these are changing days
And if your head is in the sand
While things are goin on
What you need, what you need,
What you need is a change of habit
Now if youre in the habit
To let your temper fly
When you talk with people
Who dont see eye to eye
And if you dont believe it
Theres a newer world ahead
What you need, what you need,
What you need is a change of habit
A change of habit, a change of outlook
A change of heart, youll be all right
The halls of darkness
Have doors that open
Its never too late
To see the light
So if youre in the habit
Of putting people down
Just because theyre different
From the wrong side of town
Well, dont count on any medals son
Theyre pinning none on you
What you need, what you need,
What you need is a change of habit

Big Mistake
Keeps them all waiting
Theyre standing in line
He never has to worry about being alone
Hes taking his own sweet time
The mans mighty hot
Believe it or not
Every womans after what the big boys got
They know its all a lie but theyre taking their shot
He is such a smooth-talking man
They never want to let him go
Hell be gone when the morning comes
Then theyll be the first to know
Its just a big mistake
Such a big mistake
Well, it wont be the first
It definitely wont be the last one you make
Just a big mistake
Sooner or later theyre gonna find out
He never cares about the hearts hes breaking tonight
Hes letting it all hang out
The mans mighty tough
Better leave before it starts to get too rough
He such a smooth-talking man
They never want to let him go
Hell be gone when the morning comes
Then theyll be the first to know
Its a big mistake
Such a big mistake
Well, it wont be the first
It definitely wont be the last one you make
Such a big mistake

Such a big mistake
Such a big mistake
You might think you oughta call him mr. right
Baby you might get a big surprise tonight
You might think you oughta call him mr. right
Baby you might get a big surprise tonight
In the morning when you find him gone
Its a big mistake
You know youve been lied to
In the morning when you know youre wrong
Such a big mistake
Theres no one to cry to
In the morning when you find him gone
Its a big mistake
You know youve been lied to
In the morning when youre so alone
Such a big mistake
When youre so alone
In the morning when you find him gone
In the morning when you know youre wrong
In the morning when you find him gone
In the morning youll be so alone, so alone

Maybe
Maybe far away or maybe real nearby
He maybe pouring her coffee
She maybe straightenin his tie
Maybe in a house or hidden by a hill
Shes sittin playin piano
Hes sittin payin the bills
Betcha theyre young
Betcha theyre smart
Bet theyre collecting like ashtrays and art
Betcha theyre good why shouldnt they be
Their one mistake was givin up me
So maybe now its time
And maybe when Im wake
Theyll be there calling me baby, maybe
Betcha he reads
Betcha she sews
Maybe shes made me a closet of clothes
Maybe theyre straight as straight as a line
Dont really care as long as theyre mine
So maybe now this prayer
The last one of its kind
Wont you please and get your baby

Night Owl
(james taylor)
Now a fish kinda likes the water
And thats just where he wants to be
And a monkey kinda digs bananas
So he lives in the top of a tree
But my eyes are made for darkness
So the nightime is right for me
cause Im a night owl honey, sleep all day long
Im a night owl honey, sleep all day long
Most folks they like the daytime
cause they like to see the shining sun
Theyre up in the mornin
Off and a runnin till theyre too tired for havin fun
But when the sun goes down
And the bright lights shine
My daytime has just begun
cause Im a night owl honey, sleep all day long
Im a nightowl honey, sleep all day long
Wont you turn out them bright lights baby
Theyre just about to drive me blind
Oh wont you draw then curtains for me papa
Watch and youll see my love light shine
Now there are two sides to this great big world
And one of them is always night
If you can take care of business in the sunshine baby
I guess youre gonna be alright
But dont come looking for me to lend you a hand
My eyes just cant stand the light
cause Im a night owl honey, sleep all day long
cause Im a night owl honey, sleep all day long

Was It Something I Said
Was it something I said
Or something you read
Is changing your mind
Is turning you around
Is somebody wrong
And somebody right
What was it made up your mind
What could change overnight
And if all of your friends
Who used to be mine
Come down off the fence
And swear that youre fine
I can hate you no more
I cant even the score
Almost half of my life
Just fell right on the floor
Dont you come round here no more
Dont you waste my time
Dont you dare to phone me
Dont even have me on your mind
Was there someone you now
Who wont let you go
Their pushing you under
And bleeding you slow
They dont want your time
They wont give you mine
Their hands in your pocket
And your hearts on the line
Im know Im not perfect
I wanted to be
I have this big mouth
It always contradicts me
You say you dont know
I say anything goes
But if you think its over
Then this you should know
Dont you come round here no more
Dont you waste my time
Dont you dare to phone me
Dont even have me on your mind
Was it something I said
Or something you read
Is changing your mind
Is turning you around
Is somebody wrong
And somebody right
What was it made up your mind
What could change overnight

Dont Even Think About Changing
(clarke / hicks / nash)
When people put you down
Its cause theyre jealous of you
They shouldnt make you frown
You know as well as I do
Its cause I love you
For the things you do for me
One day theyll realise
And wish that they were me
One thing I know for sure
We both get satisfaction
Thats why theyre mad at us
cos they aint got what we got
Its cos Im happy
For the things you do for me
One day theyll realise
And wish that they were me
Dont even think about changing
Youve got a life of your own
Break
Dont even think about changing
Youve got a life of your own
Why dont they understand
Our feelings are sincere
One day theyll be surprised
Because we are so near
To all the things they tried
To be when they were young
Thats why they dont agree
And take it out on us
Its cause Im happy
For the things you do for me
One day theyll realise
And wish that they were me
Its cause Im happy
For the things you do for me

You Dont Have To Act Tha
Written by: myles goodwyn
You act like someone else and I dont know why
You try to pretend youre hurt but you wont cry
And I dont believe the things that you told me
I know that you only do it cos youre lonely
And all your friends have lost their way
And you dont know who you can turn to
Its been such a long, long way girl
And I know what youve been through
So you dont have to act that way, tonite
You dont have to act that way tonite
People misunderstand you when its not right
Im gonna hold your hand and make you feel nice
Im gonna show you all that love can be
Ill always be around when you need me
Look into my eyes and smile for me
Ill hold you in my arms youll see
All it takes is one on one and that can be
Enough for some
So you dont have to act that way tonite
You dont have to act that way tonite
So you dont have to act that way tonite
You dont have to act that way tonite
Its alright
Its alright
You dont have to say youre sorry
Id never turn your words around
Be yourself now dont be lonely
You know Id never let you down
Tell me what youve been goin thru
Im trying to understand and get to know you
You can believe the things that Im sayin
Put all your trust in me and what youre feelin
All your friends have lost their way
And you dont know who you can turn to
Its seems such a long long way
And I know what you been through
So you dont have to act that way tonite
You dont have to act that way tonite

I Wont Change The Way That I Feel
Written by rick nowels & kim wilde
If I live a thousand years or more
Youll still be the one Im living for
And every night I whisper a prayer
That every day of my life you will always be there
I cant stop the world from changing
I cant say what time may reveal
But I know from now until forever
I wont change the way that I feel
About you baby...
If I only have one life to live
I will give you all I have to give
So dont believe these are faithless times
Cause as long as I live, you will always be mine
I cant stop the world from changing
I cant say what time may reveal
But I know from now until forever
I wont change the way that I feel
I wont change the way that I feel
I wont change the way I feel
I wont change the way that I feel
I wont change the way that I feel
I wont change the way that I feel
I cant stop the world from changing
I cant say what time may reveal
But I know from now until forever
I wont change the way that I feel
About you baby...
I wont change the way that I feel

Who To Listen To
Dont take a ride from a stranger,
No way to know where they go.
You may be left on a long dark road,
Lost and alone.
Dont you recall what your mama told?
Youve got to learn hot from cold.
When youre afraid that you might get burned,
Where do you turn?
Youve got to know who to, (who to)
Who not to listen to.
Youve gotta know who to, (ooooh....)
Who not to listen to.
Well, you know, theyre gonna hit you from all sides,
Better make up your mind
Who to, who not to listen to.
(who to listen to.)
How can you learn what is true and just?
How to know who to trust?
Here comes a man with a scam to sell.
How can you tell?
Youve gotta know theres a bigger plan,
Room to fall, room to stand.
Pray for the plan to begin in you;
Keep your heart true.
Youve got to know who to, (who to)
Who not to listen to.
Youve gotta know who to,
Who not to listen to. (who to listen to.)
Well, you know, theyre gonna hit you from all sides,
Better make up your mind
Who to, who not to listen to.
Its gonna hit you from all sides,
Better make up your mind
Who to, (who to), who not to listen to.
Everyone will have their words to say....
Find the word to help you find your way....
(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...yeah...ah....)
Youve got to know who to, (who to)
Who not to listen to.
Youve gotta know who to,
Who not to listen to. (who to listen to.)
Well, you know, theyre gonna hit you from all sides,
Better make up your mind
Who to, who not to listen to.
Theyre gonna hit you from all sides,
Better make up your mind
Who to, who not to listen to. (who to listen to.)
Theyre gonna hit you from all sides.
Hit you from all sides,
Better make up your mind
Who to, (who to), who not to listen to.

Theyre gonna hit you from all sides, (theyre gonna hit!)
Theyre gonna hit you from all sides,
Better make up your mind

Kashka From Baghdad
Kashka from baghdad
Lives in sin, they say,
With another man,
But no one knows who.
Old friends never call there.
Some wonder if lifes
Inside at all--
If theres life inside at all.
But we know the lady who rents the room.
She catches them calling a la lune.
At night
Theyre seen
Laughing,
Loving.
They know
The way
To be
Happy.
They never go for walks.
Maybe its because
The moons not bright enough.
Theres light in love, you see.
I watch their shadows,
Tall and slim,
In the window opposite.
I long to be with them.
cause when all the alley-cats come out,
You can hear music from kashkas house.
At night
Theyre seen
Laughing,
Loving.
They know
The way
To be
Happy.
Watching every night.*
Dont you know theyre seen?
Wont you let me laugh?
Let me in your love.
Watching every night.
Dont you know theyre seen?
Wont you let me laugh?
Let me in your love.
Watching every night.
Dont you know theyre seen?
Wont you let me laugh?
Let me in your love.
Watching every night.
Dont you know theyre seen?
Wont you let me laugh?

Choked Up
I dont know why we cant talk
Every time we try we get choked up
Running with the feelings that get caught in our head
til I cant remember what it was we said
All my friends say Im in love
is this what I think theyre thinking of?
I dont know why we cant win
Every time we lose we just pretend
Running out of money at the end of the month
Not able to buy the things I want
All my friends say Im in love
Is this what I think theyre thinking of?
Count my friends on my left hand
I dont even know they wouldnt understand
Taint myself with thoughts of leaving
Running out of things left to believe in
Running out of money and time
Running out of money and time
You wont be mine
I dont know why we cant win
Every time we lose we just pretend
Running out of money at the ned of the month
Not able to buy the things I want

Night Owl
A catfish he tends to groove on the water
Its just where hes bound to be
And a monkey kinds of flashes on fruits and bananas
So he lives in the top of a tree
But my eyes are made for darkness
And so the nighttime is right for me
Said Im a night owl, honey
Sleep all day long
Now most folks they like the good day time
They like to see the shining sun
Theyre up in the morning
Off and running
till theyre too tired for having fun
But when the sun goes down
And them bright light shine
My daytime has just begun
Im a night owl, honey
Sleep all day long
Said turn off that bright light, baby
Youre just about to drive me blind
Draw them curtains for me, mama
You watch and youll see
How my love light shines
Now, theres two sides to this
Great big world
And one of them is always night
Hey, if you can take care of
Business in the sunshine, baby
I guess youre gonna be alright
But dont come looking for stringbean
To lend you a hand
Because my eyes they cant stand the light
No, Im a night owl, honey
Sleep all, sleep all day long
I said sleep all day long
Im a night owl, honey

One of these days youll turn around
And wanna get out of this someday town
Well people gonna laugh you know what theyll say

Well therell be fear and therell be doubt
But theyre just things thatll slow you down
Just put em all in a great big pile
And stand back

And burn, baby like a big ol fire
Build it up with your one desire
And one of these days you just might change their minds
Shine the light, blind em by
A big ol fire

And one of these days youll find someone
Who lights you up like the rising sun
But hes been hurt and he wont feel
Like handin you a heart of steel
Well dont you run now just you stay
cause youre the one that can melt away
The loneliness down in his heart
Just take him in your arms

And burn baby like a big ol fire
Build it up with your one desire
And one of these days you just might find the love
Youre dreaming of, risin up a big ol fire

All youll leave behind is ashes smolderin
When you find the love youve always wanted
Never let it die

Russian Roulette
Take it or leave it Ive heard it been said
All this spring fevers just way over my head
Stealing my moments, taking up all my time
Its playing russian roulette with my mind
Its none of my business baby just whats going on
Im not going to wait till somebody throw me a bone
Im way out on a limb now, and nothing seems to rhyme
Its playing russian roulette with my mind
I think that youve caught on, that youve been used and all
Im going down new orleans, Ive got to see dr. john
Got my mojo working everything will be fine
Stop playing russian roulette with my mind
Its not easy baby when everything starts getting out of control
Hang on your hat now, hang on to your soul
Dont worry baby, I wanna throw you the line
Theyre playing russian roulette with your mind
Too many hustlers, Ive been here before
None of them really know just who that you are
Everything gets contracted and space gets confined
Theyre playing russian roulette with your mind
Theyre playing russian roulette
Theyre playing russian roulette
Theyre playing russian roulette with your mind
Theyre playing russian roulette
Theyre playing russian roulette
Theyre playing russian roulette with your mind

Change Your Mind
When you get weak, and you need to test your will
When lifes complete, but theres something missing still
Distracting you from this must be the one you love
Must be the one whose magic touch can change your mind
Dont let another day go by without the magic touch
Distracting you (change your mind)
Supporting you (change your mind)
Embracing you (change your mind)
Convincing you (change your mind)
When youre confused and the world has got you down
When you feel used and you just cant play the clown
Protecting you from this must be the one you love
Must be the one whose magic touch can change your mind
Dont let another day go by without the magic touch
Protecting you (change your mind)
Restoring you (change your mind)
Revealing you (change your mind)
Soothing you (change your mind)
You hear the sound, you wait around and get the word
You see the picture changing everything youve heard
Destroying you with this must be the one you love
Must be the one whose magic touch can change your mind
Dont let another day go by without the magic touch
Destroying you (change your mind)
Embracing you (change your mind)
Protecting you (change your mind)
Confining you (change your mind)
Distracting you (change your mind)
Supporting you (change your mind)
Distorting you (change your mind)
Controlling you (change your mind)
Change your mind (change your mind)
Change your mind, change your mind (change your mind)
Change your mind (change your mind)
The morning comes and theres an odor in the room
The scent of love, more than a million roses bloom
Embracing you with this must be the one you love
Must be the one whose magic touch can change your mind
Dont let another day go by without the magic touch
Embracing you (change your mind)
Concealing you (change your mind)
Protecting you (change your mind)
Revealing you (change your mind)

You say youve been down some rocky roads
And theres a few things you wouldnt want me to know
But its alright, baby its alright
You say youve been running from your past
And youve taken some turns just a little too fast
Well its alright, baby its alright
Aint got nothing to do with me and you tonight
And its alright
Theres nothing to run from, theres nothing to hide
And nothing can change what Im feeling inside
Tonights the beginning of the rest of our lives
And its alright, its alright
Someday youll look back when were farther along
And you wont see a trace of yesterdays wrong
And its alright, baby its alright
Aint got nothing to do with me and you tonight
And its alright
