Boathouse
I would rather be at the boathouse, out of the daily grind
Id sooner be down at the boathouse, what a way to unwind
Now I dont wanna know how it feels to be set back
So Im leavin here on a one-way track
Id rather be in mosquito alley, out of my right hand lane
You should see my mosquiot tally, all that moves is fair game
Now I dont wanna know how it feels not to be loose
So Im leavin here on the first caboose
So Im leavin here on the first caboose
I cant sleep by a gentle ocean, I cant sleep my a water fall
I cant sleep by a lovely river. I cant sleep. I cant sleep
Dee dee dee, dee dee dee, dee dee dee dee
I would rather sleep at the boathouse, what more can I say
Id soon eat down at the boathouse, let it carry me away
Now I dont wanna know how it feels to step aside
So Im leavin here on a wicked ride
Or I could be back at the alehouse, with a flagon or two
A few blocks south of the jailhouse, with a hole in my shoe
Now I dont wanna know how it feels to stop a truck
So Im leavin here and wishin you good luck
Im leavin here and wishin you good luck
I cant sleep by a gentle ocean, I cant sleep my a water fall
I cant sleep by a lovely river. I cant sleep. I cant sleep
Dee dee dee, dee dee dee, dee dee dee dee
Id rather be in mosquito alley, keepin spiders in line
Id sooner be down at the boathouse, what a way to unwind
Now I dont wanna know how it feels not to be loose
So Im leavin here on the first caboose
Im leavin here on the first caboose
Dee dee dee, dee dee dee, dee dee dee dee

Alwasy Leaving, Always Gone
Dusty dreams of yesterday, of women in the snow
Always leavin' and always gone
Reachin' for the sparkle in the yello' afternoon
Always leavin' and always gone
Always leavin' and always go-o-one
Always gone
The image of the girl appears there, clearly upon my mind
Always leavin' and always gone
Lost among the promises of the days I'll never fi-ind
Always leavin' and always gone
Always leavin' and always go-o-one
Always gone
I could hide the pain inside me but what would I win
I would lose the right to live and turn the pain to si-i-i-in
So I'll find another way, some other words to sing
And whether you're stayin' or leavin' baby, I lose everythi-ing
Here I am, another day, just a wonderin' where I'm at
Always leavin' and always gone
You fall on my memory but I try to get you there
Always leavin' and always gone
Always leavin' and always go-o-one
Always gone
Always leavin', always go-one
Always leavin', always go-one
Always leavin', always go-one

Mama stood cryin at the back door
Papas lacin on his leavin shoes
Little joes blowin on the horn outdoors
Ive seen enough, I cant take no more
And Im leavin
Might go to philadelphia, pa
Might wind up in boston, I just cant say
Got my axe in one hand
Got my greyhound ticket in the other hand
And Im leavin

Gonna play my blues

Got nothing to lose
Well, Im dying to get the hell out of here

Sleep Around
Do it like she like, do it like she like it {x4}
Chorus:
Do it like she like it
So your baby dont wanna sleep around
Give her what she want when she want
When it come 2 u, she down
Baby let me read her journal
Or should I say: she turned around and it was gone
The innuendo reads eternal
Or should I say: every other page Im on
When she come 2 cook your dinner
U can ask her if what I say is true
The secret will remain within her
But her shade of red will turn yours blue
Chorus
Maybe u recall last summer
When u saw her ridin in my car
A kiss or 2 later she was back in your bed
Smellin like a fallen star
Just because shes fine
U think she dont wine & dine with everyone u know
Oh, long as ure fooled, Im cool
She says she gonna put me in a video
U need 2...
Chorus
Oh yeah!
Sleep around, sleep around {x2}
Im the one who sent the herbs and a book on how 2 use them
Im the one who pointed out her fears and how 2 lose them
And if a difference love will make
This advice u oughta take
Baby let me read her journal
Or should I say: she turned around and it was gone
The innuendo reads eternal
Or should I say: every other page Im on
U need 2...
Do it like she like, do it like she like it (sleep around) {x3}
Do it like she like it, like it, like it...
Do it like she like it
So your baby dont wanna sleep around
Give her what she want when she want it
When it come 2 u, she down
Sleep around, sleep around
Do it like she like it
So your baby dont wanna sleep around
(Im watchin u, baby) (do it like she like it, do it)
Give her what she want when she want it
When it come 2 u, she down
(do it like she like)
Sleep around, sleep around
Do it like she like, do it like she like it {x4}
(sleep around) {x5}
Do it like she like {x5}
Do it like she like it
Do it like she like
Do it {x10}
Do it like she like it (sleep around)

I Dont Wanna
Ooh,yeah,yeah,oh,oh,yeah
Chorus:
I dont wanna be
(be without you, be without you)
I dont wanna live
(live without you, live without you)
I dont wanna go
(go without you, go without you)
I dont wanna be alone
Verse1:
When we hooked up
We sat down
Made an agreement
We vowed that
That wed always be together
Through whatever
We said that no one ever would
Get between us
So love will never ever leave us
That was a while ago,oh
But now lately
It feels like
I mean I feel like
All we do is fight
Every single night
Cant make it tight
Cant get it right
I just wanna go back
Take it way back
All the way back
Can we start again?
Do it over?
Can we straighten it out?
Can we work it out?
Chorus 2x:
I dont wanna be
(be without you, be without you)
I dont wanna live
(live without you, live without you)
I dont wanna go

See sugar I dont wanna
I dont wanna be alone
Verse 2:
Do you realize
I cant sleep without you
Think without you
Eat without you
Speak without you
Be without you,i cant even breathe without you
I cant feel without you, deal without you
Spend without you
My whole world is upside down
Dont wanna go out
Cause I cant ride without you
Feel like Im goin die without you
What is a girl supposed to do?
When I spend my last time to be in your life
I dont wanna be without you
Chorus:
I dont wanna be
(be without you, be without you)
Said I cant live
(live without you, live without you)
I cant go

Said I dont wanna, be alone
Said I cant be
(be without you, be without you)
Said I cant live
(live without you, live without you)
I dont wanna go go
(go without you, go without you)
Said I dont wanna, be alone
Bridge:
How can this be?
That its not working out
(that its not working out)
We vowed
(to be--always together)
Its hurting me
(hurting me)
That we dont talk no more
(it wasnt supposed to be this way
Where did we go wrong?
We both made mistakes
We gotta carry on)
Chorus(4x):
I dont wanna be
(be without you, be without you)
I dont wanna live
(live without you, live without you)

Im Leavin
(taura stinson/ craiyge lindesay)
I come home from work and have a glass of wine
Kick off my shoes and wait on you
Well its way past dawn and your still gone
Where in the world is my boo?
See I was fallin asleep and you were creeping in
I never would have noticed until when
Until I smelt perfume, the kind I do not wear
My babys been messin around again
Chorus:
You shouldnt have done me babe
Now watch what I do to you
Baby Im leavin Im leavin Im leavin
Leavin you
You shouldnt have done me babe
Now watch what I do to you
Baby Im leavin Im leavin Im leavin
Leavin you
How could I be so dumb? I thought I loved a man
But more and more you proved to be a boy
And now I understand
But I cant baby sit no more, its not what I loved you for
Id rather be alone bye-bye cos Im really leavin this time
Chorus
Look at you now begging down on your knees
Thinking Im coming back, oh child please
I said I was leavin I mean whet I say
Theres no turning around Im ieavin today
Chorus
No I cant baby sit no more, its not what I loved you for
Id rather be alone bye-bye cos Im really leavin this time

Dedicated to ppl who dont sleep
Sleep, sleep, sleep
It’s magnificent and nice,
With dreams beyond wonder,
Sleep! sleep! sleep!
Sleep, sleep, sleep
Eyes tightly closed,
A little smile on you r cheeks,
Feeling the ambiance
Of the pure and precious sleep,
Sleep! sleep! sleep!
Sleep, sleep, sleep
Forgetting insane things of the mixed world outside
Relax my dear, feel the gentle breeze,
Do not worry about tomorrow, do not weep,
Wake up fresh in the morning with a recuperate mind,
Fresh and blessed with a wonderful sleep,
SLEEP, SLEEP, SLEEP!

Feelings
Feelings, empty feelings
Prayin', hopin', needin'
Just when i wanted to hold you
You're leavin', you're leavin'
Leavin', you're leavin'
I remember those magic nights
Those nights when it
All seemed right
But i knew that by mornin'
You'd be gone
And though you tell me
That it's not for long
It ain't easy here holdin' on
You gotta tell me where i stand
'cause either you don't give a damn
Or you don't even care to pretend
Or you won't spare a thought
Though you know
It must come to an end
You'd better know that
I've made up my mind
I gotta high of a different kind
And it's gonna take me
Where i wanna be
Sure i'll miss ya but i gotta choose
You can't believe that
I came here to lose
And you ain't a winner
That's easy to see
So i'll see you around or i'll write
And i'll send you some love
'cause where i wanna go
There ain't nothing to do but move

Work, Sleep, Work, Sleep, Work
Work, sleep, work, sleep,
Work, sleep, work, sleep,
Work, sleep, work, sleep,
Work:
Work, sleep, work, sleep,
Work, sleep, work, sleep,
Work, sleep, work, sleep,
Work.
Oh free me please with gentle ease
From work, sleep, work, sleep, work!
This odium, pounding tedium
Of my work, sleep, work, sleep, work.
Just whisk me off to lands afar
From work, sleep, work, sleep, work -
That grinding train of rhythmic pain
Called ‘Work, sleep, work, sleep, work.’
Poor neural circuits fizzle and pop
In work, sleep, work, sleep, work,
In trying to make some sense of all this
Work, sleep, work, sleep, work.
But Hark! I see a golden gleam -
A saving spirit of hope:
‘You’re fired! ’ He screams. What news to bear,
This wondrous hangman’s rope!
So now I’m free, released from all this
Work, sleep, work, sleep, work -
Eternal peace and rest for me, no
Work, sleep, work, sleep, work.

A Better Man
What do you say when its over?
I dont know if I should say anything at all
One day were rollin in the clover
Next thing you know we take the fall
Still, I think about the years since I first met you
And the way it might have been without you here
And I dont know if words from me can still upset you
But Ive just gotta make this memory stand clear
I know Im leavin here a better man
For knowin you this way
Things I couldnt do before, now I think I can
And Im leavin here a better man
I guess I always knew I couldnt hold you
But Id never be the one to set you free
Just like some old nursery rhyme your mama told you
You still believe in some old meant-to-be
Repeat chorus
Still, Im leavin here a better man...
Repeat chorus

Sleep Comes Down
it's raining in my head
but no tears come down
and i'm dreaming of you
until sleep comes around
sleep comes down sleep comes down
sleep comes down sleep comes down
the orchestra's playing
it's so very loud
and i'm biting my nails
until sleep comes around
sleep comes down sleep comes down
sleep comes down sleep comes down
the clouds are all running
but no tears come down
and i'm thinking of you
until sleep comes around
sleep comes down sleep comes down

The Stallion
Chorus:
Stay if you want to, dont be ashamed
Leavin is easy; lord, losins the same
Life is a promise nobody keeps
Lay yourself down girl; rock me to sleep
We were the wild ones, proud in our prime
Me and the stallion, lord, one of a kind
See how we run, lord, see how we fall
Ridin for moonlight, we done it all
Well, the daylight was dying, rooks in the wind
She stood before me, stripped to the skin
Next to my stallion, she purely shown
Gliding to moonlight, starlight and stone
The moonlight is silver, starlight is cold
Wakin to laughter, shakin my soul
She was runnin my stallion, naked and free
Ridin for moonlight, gone like a dream
Chorus:
Stay if you want to, dont be ashamed
Leavin is easy; lord, losins the same
Life is a promise nobody keeps
Lay yourself down girl; rock me to sleep

To Be With You
I cant pronounce it
Dont even understand
The words I mean
My tongues tied
Up around it
My brain is so tired
But my heart is so warm
I wanna be with you
To talk with you
To sleep with you
Most of all
To make love to you
Last night I dreamed about it
The rooms in these hotels
Are the same around the world
I could really do without it
Ill only hate myself
If I take another girl
I wanna be with you
I wanna talk with you
I wanna sleep with you
Most of all
To make love to you
Oh if I ever get home again
If you could ever
Do the same thing too
I could open up my soul again
I have to get this message to you
I wanna be with you
I wanna talk with you
I wanna sleep with you
I wanna make love to you
Love to you
Youve got that feeling inside
And you know
My joy just cant hide

Now, when the day goes to sleep and the full moon looks
The night is so black that the darkness cooks
Dont you come creepin around - makin me do things I dont want to
Cant believe that you need my love so bad
Come sneakin around tryin to drive me mad
Bustin in on my dreams - making me see things I dont wanna see
Break:
cause youre da green manalishi with the two prong crown
All my tryin is up - all your bringin is down
Just taking my love then slippin away
Leavin me here just tryin to keep from following you

Leavin' In The Morning
Music: Barry Manilow
Lyrics: Marty Panzer
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I tried to tell you there was trouble on the way
I lost the feelin' that I once had
But when I held you there was nothin' I could say
I couldn't bear to see you hurt so bad
So I'll be leavin' in the morning
Wishin' that I could stay
And tho' I'll miss you every morning it's the only way
So I'll be leavin' in the morning
But how can I tell you why
I never gave you any warning
And now I don't know how to say goodbye
I tried to tell you there was something that I missed
Something I couldn't ever find with you
But I was blinded by your love each time we kissed
Afraid I'd never find a love so true
So I'll be leavin' in the morning
But how can I tell you why
I never gave you any warning
And now I don't know how to say goodbye
I waited too long but now I see
It's no good for you
It's no good for me
You can't see it now
But one day you'll know
I just had to go
So I'll be leavin' in the morning
Wishin' that I could stay
And tho' I'll miss you every morning it's the only way
So I'll be leavin' in the morning
But how can I tell you why
I never gave you any warning
And now I don't know how to say goodbye

How Can You Sleep?
How can you sleep, knowing that the one who Really do Loves you Feels Bad He Let You Go?
How can you sleep, knowing that the one who Really Loves you cant sleep at night?
How can you sleep, knowing that the one who Really do Loves you cant Eat Because you are no longer there?
How Can you sleep, knowing that all he wants to do is hear your voice every night before he goes to sleep?
How can you sleep, knowing that everyday all he do is long for your touch and the warmth of your Lips?
How can you sleep, knowing that your on his mind everyday, Minute, Hour, Second?
How can you sleep, knowing your his one and only, even when your not together?
How can you sleep, telling him truth about him but not being true to yourself?
How can you sleep, not telling him what you know you want him to know?
How can you sleep, knowing he put his trust in you and you let him down?
How can you know so much yet so little?
How Would You Sleep Knowing That One Day Soon Will Be The Last Day You Ever See Him Again Knowing He Did You So Good And Yet One Day You Let Him Down?

I Wanna Be With You
So let the frozen sands crumble, crumble and fall
Yeah thats all right, I dont mind at all
Well let it all tumble right into the sea
Yeah thats all right, thats fine with me
Since you came down the line
I dont sleep at night
I got one thing on my mind
And so every day, every night
I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you
Thats what I wanna do
cause youre so out of sight
I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you
Thats what I wanna do
Well I lost my job at the texaco station
Instead of pumpin gas I dreamed of you
I got thrown out of my house
I got such a bad reputation
cause all I wanna do is be seen with you
They gave me my pay and said walk
I dont care what they say
Go ahead and let em all talk
Until the world falls apart
I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you
Thats what I wanna do
Until they rip out my heart
I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you
Thats what I wanna do
Bedtime, hold tight, love me just a little bit
All night, a little bit more
Tonight, tonight ...
Oh I dont know, I dont know
I dont understand ityou aint pretty at all
But I come when you whisper
I run when you call
And baby I cant stand it
And baby thats all
Ridin by your side in my car
Oh, oh I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you
Darlin dont you know
Oh, oh I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you
Because I love you so
