Perfectly Still

(scott johnson, bill leen)
Its our call
It sways, it stalls
I need a little extra time alone
Well maybe take the long way home
Just enough to get it wrong
Nothing like a bad decision
Says who you are
Fools rush in
For the grist in my
For the grist in my mill
Cant you see
When youre perfectly
When youre perfectly still
One big rout
Were all sold out
If nothings off limits, well pay
Price tags on every other day
Were bankrupt here for now
But they cant take my anger
It cant be touched
Fools rush in
For the grist in my
For the grist in my mill
Cant you see
When youre perfectly
When youre perfectly still...
Outdated maps
Missed pull-out ramps
I wont contribute to our own demise
Pass up the consolation prize
It starts from here from now
Nothing like a bad decision
Says who you are
Fools rush in...

Big Decision

Pick me up in an hour or so
I dont really recommend it, no
Theyll probably just put you down
I believe you
I wanna be you
I believe you
I wanna be you
I know youre not through with it yet
Its a big decision
You cant kick when youre down
Got a feeling kind of like a cough
Aint nothing gonna shake it off
Aint nothing gonna shake it off
Until you talk out loud
I believe you
I wanna be you
I believe you
I wanna be you
I know youre not through with it yet
Its a big decision
You cant kick when youre down
The chromium car reflects who you are taking you home
Im under youre spell cant you tell? dont you know?
God, people wonder if youre sick
Spilled out on the city slick
Puffed up like a macho jerk
Dont even try it itll never work
Why you wonder? what you wonder for me?
Why you wonder? what you wonder for me?
Why you want what I can not be you know I wont stay sober
I believe you
I wanna be you
I believe you
I wanna be you
I know youre not through with it yet
Its a big decision
I know youre not through with it yet
Its a big decision
I know youre not through with it yet
Its a big decision
You cant kick when youre down

Thoughts For The Mill

We're deluding

Under Suspicion

(b. tyler/p. hopkins/p. oxendale)
Producer for bonnie: jim steinman
I put my trust in you cos Im not the suspicious kind
But it seems to me that theres someone on your mind
And maybe Im wrong and maybe theres some mistake
But I wont take any chances, Im watching every move you make
I never felt so scared and helpless before
I wish I could believe in you but I just gotta be sure
Youre under suspicion all of the time
Youre under suspicion all of the time
When we talk I can see you cant look me straight in the eye
Whats all the secrecy, you got me wondering why
Is it someone you met that could make you regret your decision
How could you forget all our plans and all our ambitions
Dont try to pull the wool right over my eyes
You think youre pretty smart but I can see right through your disguise
Youre under suspicion all of the time
Youre under suspicion all of the time
Instrumental
Youre under suspicion all of the time
Youre under suspicion all of the time
Youre under suspicion all of the time
Youre under suspicion
Instrumental
Youre under suspicion all of the time
Youre under suspicion all of the time

Rush Rush

(p. lord)
Youre the whisper of a
Summer breeze
Youre the kiss that puts my
Soul at ease
What Im saying is im
In to you
Heres my story and the
Story goes
You give love, you get love
And more than
Heaven knows
Youre gonna see
Im gonna run, Im gonna try
Im gonna take this love
Right to ya
All my heart, all the joy
Oh baby, baby please
Chorus:
Rush, rush
Hurry, hurry lover
Come to me

Get free with me
Rush, rush
I can feel it, I can feel you
All through me
Rush, rush
Ooh what you do to me
And all I want from you is
What you are
And even if youre right
Next to me
Youre still too far away
If Im not inside your arms
I get dramatic baby,
Yes I know
But I need you, I want you
Ooh man, I love you so
Ooh, ooh
Youre gonna see
Im gonna run, Im gonna try
Im gonna take this love
Right to ya
All my heart, all the joy
Ooh baby, baby please
Chorus
When you kiss me
Up and down
Turn my senses all around
Oh baby, oh baby
I dont know
Just how or why
But no one else
Has touched me
So deep, so deep
So deep inside
Youre gonna see
Im gonna run
Im gonna try
Im gonna take this love
Right to ya
All me heart, all the joy
Oh baby baby please

Fools Rush In

Just why do I want you baby
Anyone but a fool would let it be
Go on anywhere you take me
I dont want to know whats pulling me
If I fall so deep
With my eyes so wide
Then I hope that feeling isnt only mine
Fools rush in
Where the wise dont go
Fools rush in
And Im a fool for love
Fools rush in
But the wise dont know
Fools rush in
Safe advice
I cant let it stop me
Love dont wanna know the reason why
If we fall so deep
With our eyes so wide
Then I know the feeling isnt
Only mine
Fools rush in
Where the wise dont go
Fools rush in
And Im a fool for love
Fools rush in
But the wise dont know
Fools rush in

Since Youre Gone

Since youre gone
Since youre gone
The nights are gettin strange
Since youre gone
Well, nothings makin any sense
Since youre gone
I stumbled in the shade
Since youre gone
Everythings in perfect tense, well
I cant help it
When you fall apart
d I (and I) cant help it
Guess you better start
That is forgettin about you
(since youre gone)
Since youre gone
Nights are gettin strange
(since youre gone)
Since youre gone
Thrownin it all away
(since youre gone)
Since youre gone
The nights are gettin strange
(since youre gone)
Since youre gone
Thrownin it all away
I cant help it
Everythings a mess
I cant help it
Youre so treacherous
When it comes, to tenderness
(since youre gone)
I cant help it
Everythings a mess
I cant help it
Youre so treacherous
Oh, wheres that tenderness?
(since youre gone)
Since youre gone
I missed the peak sensation
(since youre gone)
Since youre gone
I took the big vacation
(since youre gone)
Well, never feel sedate
(since youre gone)
Well, the moonlight aint so great
(since youre gone)
Since youre gone
(since youre gone)
Well, Ive thrown it all away
(since youre gone)
When the night (? )
(since youre gone)
Strange
Ive thrown it all away
(since youre gone)
Well, since youre gone
(since youre gone)
Since youre gone
Since youre gone
(since youre gone)
Ive thrown it all away
(since youre gone)

Theologians have a great problem because they're seeking to speak about God. Since God is the ground of everything that is, there's a sense in which every human inquiry is grist to the theological mill. Obviously, no theologian can know everything.

The Man That Got Away

Very nice man
The road is bitter,
The stars have lost their glitter;
The winds grow colder
Suddenly youre older
And all because of the man that got away.
No more his eager call
The writings on the wall
The dreams you dreamed
Have all gone astray
The man that won you
Has run off and undone you.
That great beginning
Has seen the final inning
Dont know what happened
Its all a crazy game
A game
No more that all-time thrill
For youve been through the mill
And never a new love
Will be the same
Good riddance, good-bye
Every trick of his youre on to
But fools will be fools
And wheres he gone to?
The road gets rougher
Its lonelier and tougher
With hope you burn up
Tomorrow he might turn up
Theres just no letup
The live-long night and day
Ever since this world began
There is nothing sadder than
A one-man woman looking for
The man that got away
The man that got away

Running Out Of Fools

Sure you havent got the wrong number
Sure its me you want to talk to tonight
Everyone in towns got your number
Everyone in towns got you pegged just right
Is that why you got in touch with me
I guess you must be running out of fools
Even when you left me there crying
Your goodbye was even colder than ice
You didnt care that you left me there crying
Now you wanna break my heart twice
Is that why you got in touch with me
I guess you must be running out of fools
I guess you got back to my name in your little black book
Hey guess what I bet you forgot how I even look
So go ahead with all your sweet talking
Go ahead for all the good it will do
Have yourself a dimes worth of talking
Then Im gonna hang right up on you
Cause this time youre not getting through to me
I guess you must be running out of fools
Even fools like me
Even fools like me
I guess youre running out of fools
Even fools like me

How Come The World Wont Stop

Hmmm
Somebody told me
You were not coming home
The words are spinnin in time
And the air suddenly went cold
The sun is still shining
But everything feels like rain, oh
And if I had one wish
It would be to see you again
Nothings fair
When we loose
Without a moment to say goodbye
How come the world wont stop spinning
Now that youre gone (now that youre gone)
I know every end has beginnings
But this ones all wrong (this ones all wrong)
So wrong, so wrong
Caught in the middle
Wrong place, wrong time
And Im hopelessly missing you
And I cant stop deny
Nothings fair anymore
And I know theres a better place
And Ill never stop dreaming of you
Ooooh
How come the world wont stop spinning
(now that youre gone) now that youre gone
I know every end has beginnings
But this ones all wrong (this ones all wrong)
So wrong, so wrong
How can the seasons keep changing
Since you disappeared
Oh yeah
(tell me) how come the world wont stop
How come the world wont stop
Sweet tears are shed
This pain we lay to rest
Its hard lettin go
But I keep movin on
In a place I dont belong
How come the world (stop spinning)
Said now that youre gone
I know every end has beginning
Said this ones all wrong
Said this ones all wrong
(how can the seasons) keep changing
Since you disappeared
Oh, youre gone
Youre gone
How come the world wont stop
How come the world wont stop
How come the world wont stop spinning
Now that youre gone
Yeah heya
I know every end has beginning
But this ones all wrong
So wrong

What Do You Need?

What do you need from me tonight?
I feel you look right through me now
I cant pretend its all right
Maybe well find a way somehow
Why do we need to turn it on?
Why does it always feel so wrong?
[chorus]
What do you need from me tonight?
The truth is so complicated now
You feel so free to say
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Fear makes you fragile darlin
Hate is so heavy when youre weak
Now were both lost in anger
When were alone well find some peace
Why do we need to turn it on?
Why does it always seem so wrong?
What do you need from me tonight?
The truth is so complicated now
You feel so free to say
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Why do we need to turn it on?
Why does it always seem so wrong?
[chorus]
[chorus]
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Why do we need to turn it on?
Why does it always seem so wrong?

Now That Youre Gone

(bernard edwards/nile rodgers)
My nights grow long
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
Now that youre gone
Im living my life all alone
Or hit by a blow
To my pride
But Im doing ok
I wont let you see
What this has done to me
I guess Ill just take it in stride
Come what may
My nights grow long
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
How can one do what should be done by two
I guess thats a crazy question to ask
I might seem happy
But dont be fooled by my appearance
Make no mistake
Im just wearing a mask
My nights grow long
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
Now that youre gone
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long

Sold Me Out

I always knew that theyd get me somehow sooner or later,
But with a bullet in the head, a knife in the back,
Not a pocket calculator.
Sorry mister, youre all wiped up,
Youre all washed up,
Sold you out.
Got no dreams, got no ambition,
Cant decide, cause theres no decision,
Got no claim to any position,
Cant compete with the competition.
Youre always complaining,
Its so depressing,
But if youre old enough,
Start to confess it.
You say, you sold me out,
To get a better deal for yourself,
You sold me out,
And now we want some of your precious wealth,
Because you sold me out.
Sold me out,
Sold me out,
Sold me out.
You sold me out,
To get a better deal for yourself.
You sold me out,
And now its every man for himself.
Work all your life, put the money in the bank,
Sign on the dotted line.
Try to draw it out, the jokes on you,
Put up the empty sign.
Sorry mister, were all sold out.
Sold me out,
Sold me out,
Sold me out,
Sold me out.
You, Im talkin to you.
You sold me out,
To get a better deal for yourself.
You sold me out,
And now we want some of your precious wealth.
And sell you out,
Like you sold me out.
Are you in so deep, that you cant get out?
Got no dreams, got no ambition,
Cant decide, cause theres no decision,
Got no claim to any position,
Cant compete with the competition.
Sold me out,
Sold me out,
Sold me out,
Sold me out.
(repeat)

I Wont Be Home No More

Written and recorded by hank williams (sr.)
Capo on 1st fret.
[d] well, youre just in time to be too late
I tried to but I couldnt wait
And [a] now I ve got another date
So I wont be home no [d] more
Youre just in time to miss the boat
So dont take off your hat and coat
[a] be on your way, thats all she wrote
cause I wont be home no [d] more.
1st bridge
I [g] stood around a month or two
And waited for your call
Now [d] I m too busy pitchin woo
So come around next [a] fall
I [d] scratched your name right off my slate
And hung a sign on my front gate
Youre [a] just in time to be too late
And I wont be home no [d] more.
Well, youre just in time to turn around
And drive your buggy back to town
You looked me up I turned you down
And I wont be home no more
Youre just in time to change your tune
Go tell your troubles to the moon
And call around next may or june
cause I wont be home no more.
2nd bridge
I used to be the patient kind
Believed each alibi
But thats all done, I ve changed my mind
I ve got new fish to fry
Well, youre just in time to celebrate
The things you didnt calculate
Youre just in time to be too late
And I wont be home no more.

Take A Fools Advice

(charles singleton)
If you love her
And she makes one mistake,
Please dont leave her
It would make your heart ache.
Take a fools advice,
Dont pay the price I had to pay.
If you need her
But youre letting her go,
Please dont do it
Youll be sorry, I know.
Take a fools advice,
Dont pay the price I had to pay.
Truly,
Shes caused you to doubt her,
Truly,
Shes broken the rules.
But lifes not worth living without her,
So listen to the wisdom of a fool.
Think it over
And forgive her this time,
I was foolish
I lost the love that was mine.
Take a fools advice,
Dont pay the price I had to pay.
Take a fools advice,
Dont pay the price I had to pay.

Subtle Invitation

See its hard to tell somebody
That youre still somewhat
Attached to the dream
Of being in love once again
When its clear theyve moved
So I sat down and wrote these few words
On the off chance youd hear
And if you happen to be somewhere listening
You should know Im still here
If you really need me
Baby just reach out and touch me
You dont ever have to be
Downhearted again
If she hurts you or misleads you
Baby all you ever need to do
Is call me and let love rush in
What can I say, I had a little extra time
So I figured I might as well explain
A couple little things to you
That you probably never knew
Like youll always be an intrinsic part of me
Even though life goes on
If you really need me
Baby just reach out and touch me
You dont ever have to be
Downhearted again
If she hurts you or misleads you
Baby all you ever need to do
Is call me and let love rush in
And in my love will flow
Like the waves to the shore
You can fall into me
Once again effortlessly
And Ill comfort you so
Your heart wont hurt anymore
Im waiting patiently
If you really need me
Baby just reach out and touch me
You dont ever have to be
Downhearted again
If she hurts you or misleads you
Baby all you ever need to do
(if she hurts you or misleads you) is call me and let love rush in
(you can just call me baby)
If you really need me (if you really need me baby)
Baby just reach out and touch me(reach reach baby)
(reach, baby)
You dont ever have to be
(dont ever hesitate to call me)
Downhearted again
If she hurts you or misleads you(if she hurts you)
(shes a dam fool)
Baby all you ever need to do
Is call me and let love rush in
(all you gotta do is call me boy, I got you)
If you really need me (yeah:.)
Baby just reach out and touch me
(if youre listening to me baby)
You dont ever have to be (like you used to)
Downhearted again
(before I even knew you)
If she hurts you or misleads you
(then you know Im singing to you)
Baby all you ever need to do
(so I just wanted you to know)
Is call me and let love rush in
(that anytime you need a friend)
If you really need me (Im here)
Baby just reach out and touch me
(you can still believe
You dont ever have to be in fairy tales)
Downhearted again (yours and mine)
If she hurts you or misleads you
(so if by chance you take a listen)
Baby all you ever need to do
(Im quite sure you know is call me and let love rush
In that this ones for you)
(cause Im giving my all)

Say Youre Sorry

Havent you ever felt this way before?
(with a perfect stranger? )
The look on her face, it just gives her away, she cant take any more
Hoist up your white flag, call for a truce
Try separation, we both stand to lose
She looks in your eyes as we say our goodbyes and she says
Say youre sorry
Say youre sorry (tell me, tell me)
Say youre sorry (right from the heart)
Say youre sorry
Say youre sorry
Think of the times when we couldnt wait to get home
(from the arms of danger)
Funniest part was the danger was right in our being home
You hoist up your white flag, you seem so amused
Living in riddles without giving clues
Looks in your eyes as you say your goodbytes and she says
Say youre sorry
Say youre sorry (tell me, tell me)
Say youre sorry (right from the heart)
Say youre sorry
Say youre sorry
Weve had our problems and weve had our fights
I was the wrong one and you were the right
No more fighting, it ends tonight
Its your turn to say youre sorry
Say youre sorry
Say youre sorry (say youre sorry)
