I Am A Rock
(simon / garfunkel)
A winters day in a deep and dark december
I am alone
Gazing from my window to the street below
On a freshly fallen , silent shroud of snow
I am a rock I am an island
Dont talk of love
Well, Ive heard the word before
Its sleeping in my memory
Dont disturb the slumber
Of feelings that have died
If I never loved, I never would have cried
Chorus
I build walls
A fortress deep and might
That none may penetrate
I have no need of friendship
Friendship causes pain
Its laughter and its loving I disdain
Chorus
I have my books
And my poetry to protect me
I am shielded in my armor
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me
Chorus
And a rock feels no pain
And an island never cries
Chorus x 2

I Am A Rock
A winter's day, in a deep and dark December, I am alone,
Gazing from my window to the streets below
On (a) freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.
I am a rock, I am an island.
I've built walls, A fortress deep and mighty, That none may penetrate.
I have no need of friendship, friendship causes pain.
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain.
I am a rock, I am an island.
Don't talk of love, but I've heard the words before,
It's sleeping in my memory.
I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died.
If I never loved I never would have cried.
I am a rock, I am an island.
I have my books, and my poetry to protect me,
I am shielded in my armor, Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
I touch no one and no one touches me.
I am a rock, I am an island.
And a rock feels no pain, and an island never cries.

I Am A Rock
A winter's day
In a deep and dark December;
I am alone,
Gazing from my window to the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
I've built walls,
A fortress deep and mighty,
That none may penetrate.
I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain.
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
Don't talk of love,
But I've heard the words before;
It's sleeping in my memory.
I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died.
If I never loved I never would have cried.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
I have my books
And my poetry to protect me;
I am shielded in my armor,
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
I touch no one and no one touches me.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
And a rock feels no pain;
And an island never cries.

I Cant Hide
I got a secret
Its here in my heart
And I cant even tell my friends.
How much I adore you
Im fallin apart
I got to kept it deep within.
The way that I love you
I cant even say I promise not to
Tell a soul
It wont last too long, a feeling so strong
And I cant hide the way.
(chorus)
I cant hide the way Im feeling inside
The pain is killing me
Cause I want to let the world know
Its you Im lovin
I cant hide the way Im feeling inside
The pain is killin me
Cause I want to let the world know its you Im lovin.
Its something so special, this thing that we share
So why cant we just let it go
Its easy to see
Can they know that we should be as one.
Its out in the open
Our cover is blown and I dont care who really knows
I need to be with you
Cant take it no more, cause baby I need you.
(bridge)
Lovin you feels so right,(lovin you feels so right)
I dont want to have to live a lie ( I dont want to lie)
The way you touch, the way you kiss drives me out of my mind
(Ill never love)
Boy Ive never loved this way before baby
So Ive given you the keys to my door
With every touch I want you more
Dont want to let my feelings show
I cant hide.
Chorus
Im not afraid to let my feelings show
I cant hide them no more (no more)
Cause no matter what they say
Its never gone to change the way that I feel for you
Cause boy I love (I love you )
Repeat chorus

Dont Talk About It
I was staring at the people
Lost and terrified
Turned and saw you smiling
My heart was terrorised
Lust among the millions
Another suicide
Chorus:
When I think that love was there
Dont wanna talk about it
Dont wanna talk about it
The pain we share
While they just talk about it
While they just talk about it
A hand reached out to touch me
A letter hit the pile
I felt my life revolving
Like fingers in a dial
Just then I stopped believing
But only for a while
When I think that love was there
Dont wanna talk about it
Dont wanna talk about it
The pain we share
While they just talk about it
While they just talk about it
When I think that love was there
Dont wanna talk about it
Dont wanna talk about it
Dont give it up
Dont count on their loving
Dont give it up, dont try
Dont give it up
Dont count on their loving
Dont give it up, dont try
Dont wanna talk about it
Dont wanna talk about it
(chorus)
When I think that love was there
I was staring at the people
Lost and terrified
Turned and saw you crying
A victim of your pride
But you are no civilian
So open up your eyes

Comatose
The doors are closed and the walls are white
Someone calls but i don't want to talk tonight
Stay away you all want to.......stay away
I'm going to be all right......all right
Chorus:
Within the arms of slumber
Going to leave it all behind
Comatose gone under
Like all the other times
With pride and disdain i'm going to ignore this pain
When someone falls you're supposed to get up again
I try to oblige but i can't tonight
I'm going to be all right......all right
Chorus
Comfort of my dreams
I resign myself to you
Dream as i might
I'm sleeping when i'm blue
Such a pleasure when i feel myself go under
So stay away....stay away
While i'm in the arms of slumber
And i'm leaving it all behind
The magic of sweet morpheus you're doing it once again
You saved me from my sadness you saved me from my pain
Protect me from depression protect me one more night
And i'll be all right......all right
Chorus
Comfort of my dreams
I resign myself to you
Dream as i might
I'm sleeping when i'm blue
Such a pleasure when i feel myself go under
So stay away....stay away
While i'm in the arms of slumber

Shes Always There
(l. stansfield/i. devaney)
She feels such pain when you say goodbye
Nearly goes insane
When you cant look her in the eye
And its plain to see
That shes being used
But shes always there and she love you
Rest up here a little while
And Ill convince you that you need my time
Dont play games with aching hearts
Shhh not another word
Let me talk
Ive been close Ive been watching you
Watching every little thing you do
Dont you realize youre breaking hearts
Shhh not another word
Chorus:
She feels such pain when you say goodbye
Nearly goes insane
When you cant look her in the eye
And its plain to see
That shes being used
But shes always there and she loves you
And she cries
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na
How can you go through life this way
Causing hurt causing pain
Think of your baby and not about yourself
Shhh not another word now
Chorus
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Dont play games with aching hearts
Shhh not another word

Deep Down
(walt aldridge, john jarrard)
You know everyday I walk down memory lane
Trying to find a way past the same old pain
Ah you know, but now the message is loud and its clear
There aint no way to get there from here
Chorus:
Yeah Ive finally realized thats the way things are
I got the bleeding stopped but theres gonna be a scar
I know Ill go on living but youre always gonna be around
Deep down, deep down
Well, I know an old soldier who walks with a limp
From a war hes still fightin inside of him
And just like me hell go to his grave
Nursin a pain that wont go away
(chorus)
Maybe I really dont wanna be through
With all the memories I have of you
We had some bad times but we had good times too

Youll always be around
Deep down

Fire Island
drivind on the lawn
sleeping on the roof
drinking all the alcohol
all the kids from school
will be naked in the pool
while our parents are on fire island
cranking up the tunes
til the windows break
feeding chocolate to the dog
jumping on the couch
til the featers all come out
while our parents are on fire island
(chorus)
we're old enough by now
to take care of each other
we dont need no babysitter
we dont need no father or mother
we're old enough by now
dont worry about a thing
dont you remember last december
when u went to steamboat springs??
driving on the lawn
sleeping on the roof
drinking aLL the alchol
all the kids from school
will be naked in the pool
while our parents are on fire island
(chorus)
driving on the lawn
sleeping on the roof
dringing all the alcohol

Rock Me Gently
Aint it good, aint it right
That you are with me here tonight
The music playing
Our bodies swaying in time
(in time, in time, in time)
Touching you so warm and tender
Lord, I feel such a sweet surrender
Beautiful is the dream that makes you mine
Chorus
Rock me gently, rock my slowly
Take it easy, dont you know
That I have never been loved like this before
Baby baby!
Chorus
Oh my darling, of my baby
You got the moves that drive me crazy
And on you face I see a trace of love
(of love, of love, of love)
Come hold me closer, dont let me go
I need you honey, I love you so
You were made for me by the stars above
Chorus
Baby baby!

Aint it good, aint it right

Ben
Verse 1:
I’m sitting in my room thinking about the times that weren’t so bad
When you were here with the family
It was like you were the person who listened, the kind one
Always knew the right thing to stand up for no matter the cause or cost
Chorus:
The pain shoots through me every time I start to think or talk about your memory
Just because the way you were taken was so unnecessary
So Ben this one is for you
The family we miss you it’s like
The pain could never end
But together we can get through this
And keep your memory alive
Verse 2:
The many things run through my head
That the fact if you were here still today
Things could be different, it seemed
Like you were the part that kept things together
When you went things fell apart
Chorus:
The pain shoots through me every time I start to think or talk about your memory
Just because the way you were taken was so unnecessary
So Ben this one is for you
The family we miss you it’s like
The pain could never end
But together we can get through this
And keep your memory alive
Verse 3:
The feelings cut deep like a knife
Through all of this I’m still here
To keep your memory alive, I shall remember you for the good
Not the last memories, the grievance just wont pass
But thanks to the support of many certain friends I can still pull through.
Chorus:
The pain shoots through me every time I start to think or talk about your memory
Just because the way you were taken was so unnecessary
So Ben this one is for you
The family we miss you it’s like
The pain could never end
But together we can get through this
And keep your memory alive
In memory of Ben Chantler 1981-2006

Count On Me
Count on me through think and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak, I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me, I will be there
Dont be afraid
Please believe me when I say
Count on...
I can see its hurting you
I can feel the pain
Its hard to see the sunshine though the rain
I know sometimes it seems as if
Its never gonna end
But youll get through it
Just dont give in cause you can...
Chorus
I know sometimes it seems as if
Were standing all alone
But well get though it
Cause love wont let us fall
Chorus
Theres a place inside of all of us
Where our faith in love begins
You should reach to find the truth in love
The answers there within, oh
I know that life can make you feel
Its much harder than it really is
But well get through it
Just dont give in

Do What You Wanna Do
I-i know its time to realize,
I-i know the love you felt for me has died,
I-i try to cope with the pain inside
But I just realize that I cannot hide the feelings that I have inside...
Can you hear me?
I-i know its hard to understand,
But girl you gotta know,
You made me be a different man,
I-i dont want you to feel no guilt inside,
I just want to stay friend but I feel the fear girl that I never can
Chorus:
You gotta do what you wanna do,[hear me]
Still remember what I feel for you,[hear me]
You gotta do what you wanna do,[hear me]
Still remember that I care for you,[hear me]
I dont want to see our friendship die,
I know we need to seperate ways,
But I dont know why
I hope someday we both will see,
That girl our friendship was created for eternity

Dont Say Its Love
Weve had it good for years now
Dont let the change
Weve never needed answers
To find the way
Now all of a sudden
Like waves on a beach
Love has come crashing down
The truth has been lost and found
(chorus)
Dont say its love, baby
cos you are to me
What you want to be
Dont say its love, baby
If our friendship is to survive
Dont say its love
Weve shared so many secrets
Now kiss and tell
You make one move to love me
And its farewell
cos somewhere theres someone
Whos waiting for you
To love you more than I could
Your heart was misunderstood
(chorus)
Dont be a fool
Youll be alone in your confusion
If loving me is an illusion
Then let it go
Oh no no no no
Now I never counted
On ending this way
I always trusted fate
But if we are no too late
(chorus)
...all you do is say its love

Get Over You
Get Over You"
I can remember the day and time that we broke up
It was December and the holidays were coming up
I didnt expect to loose all of the time I shared with you
But now that its gone I find myself longing for you
[Pre-Chorus]
No doubt about it Im sorry for the way things worked out
If I could change it I would change it but I dont know how
Oooooooooooooooooo
(No I cant aint no need to cry when I know the reason why)
You chose to leave me but I still wish you were here with me
[Chorus]
Its true I cant get over you
No matter what I do
Even if I try I, I cant get over you
I can remember calling your phone and hanging up
Cause I was to afraid to talk, if by chance you picked it up
But now that I done thought about it,
Id feel better if we talk about it
And let you know whats on my mind
See I wanna try to make things right.
[Repeat Prelude]
[Repeat Chorus]
Lately Ive been doing some reminiscing
Id be lying if I said that I dont miss you
I have feelings from deep in the past
Cause now I need you back
It wasnt so bad
[Repeat Chorus 2x]
I cant get over you
I cant get over you
No I cant get over
Said no way I cant get over
I cant get over you
Alright yea yea

Blue Condition
By ginger baker
Dont take the wrong direction passing through
Instead of deep reflection of whats true,
For its a combination of judgments made by you
That cause a deep dejection all the way through.
No relaxation, no conversation, no variation
In a very dark blue, blue condition.
Early rising every day.
You must be enterprising in your way,
For you will hear no laughter, nor see the sun;
Life would be one disaster all the way through.

Tired
You been talking for an hour
And I swear to God that I cant hear a word you say
So would you come to me, come to me
I get caught up in the waves of conversation, they wash over me
And they cover me, they cover me
Chorus 1:
Should I just pack my things and leave
Would I be a bigger man if i
I build a wall around your heart, dare you to come in
I can lie to you, and say I didnt mean it
But hurts a funny thing and
It makes you stronger
Chorus 2:
Where all is nothing in moderation
Its a dirty feeling, it makes you stronger
Well I believe Im just plain tired
Theres a funny way your lip shakes
When I know that youve been lying and it touches me,
Mmmm....said it comforts me, it comforts me
Well I guess I should be satisfied cause you say you love me half the time
Well Ill settle there, we can build from there, build from there
Would you be happier if I was only half the man I am
You could shout at me, dare me to come in
I can lie to you, and say I didnt mean it,
But it really doesnt matter when you stop to think about it
(chorus 2)
Chorus 3:
Say the end is coming she dont even feel it,
Its a strange sensation, Im almost happy
Well I believe Im just plain tired
