Isolation
Pop/bowie
Needed you, you were only using
Needing you just tore me down
And here I stand in isolation
Feeling emptiness and doubt
Walking down the broken highway
Sucking sugar plain and sweet
Did your mother ever tell you
That the joyful are free
I need some lovin
Like an inmate needs a dime
I need some lovin
Like a poet needs a rhyme
Here I stand in isolation
My empty hands in isolation
Walking down the broken highway
Sucking sugar cause its my way
Find me one heart to complete with
Heading for the farthest reaches
I need some lovin
Like a body needs a soul
I need some lovin
Like a fastball needs control
Here I stand in isolation
My empty hands in isolation
Strike up the band
In this proud land
Got a lot to do
Got a lot to say
Got a life to live
Here I stand-
In isolation

Isolation
In fear every day, every evening,
He calls her aloud from above,
Carefully watched for a reason,
Painstaking devotion and love,
Surrendered to self preservation,
From others who care for themselves.
A blindness that touches perfection,
But hurts just like anything else.
Isolation, isolation, isolation.
Mother I tried please believe me,
I'm doing the best that I can.
I'm ashamed of the things I've been put through,
I'm ashamed of the person I am.
Isolation, isolation, isolation.
But if you could just see the beauty,
These things I could never describe,
These pleasures a wayward distraction,
This is my one lucky prize
Isolation, isolation, Isolation, isolation, isolation.

Isolation is not the salvation
You have no beloved- a sensual isolation.
You are not a beloved- an emotional isolation.
You have no friends- a physical isolation.
You are not a friend- a spiritual isolation.

Isolation
People say we got it made
Dont they know were so afraid?
Isolation
Were afraid to be alone
Everybody got to have a home
Isolation
Just a boy and a little girl
Trying to change the whole wide world
Isolation
The world is just a little town
Everybody trying to put us down
Isolation
I dont expect you to understand
After youve caused so much pain
But then again, youre not to blame
Youre just a human, a victim of the insane
Were afraid of everyone
Afraid of the sun
Isolation
The sun will never disappear
But the world may not have many years

Be clear every day, every evening
It calls here aloud from above
Carefully watched for a reason
Mistaking devotion and love
Surrendered to self-preservation
From others who care for themselves
But life as it touches perfection
Appears just like anything else
Isolation
Mother, I tried, please believe me
I'm doing the best that I can
I'm ashamed of the things
I've been put through
I'm ashamed of the person I am
Isolation
But if you could just see the beauty
These things I could never describe
Pleasures and wayward distraction
Is this my wonderful prize?

VOICES ON THE EDGE OF THE WORLD (in honour of my fellow poets)
It is how we are and who we are
that we live out here on the edge
the ragged rim of the world
It’s the nature of our vice
This dark self imposed isolation
Yet the paradox in it shines bright
As the isolation bears heavy
upon our pale and brittle skin
for unless we share our souls
there is but dust in what we do
Each staking a separate claim
along the river of the golden muse
and each naked in hand and heart
bares the working of a soul
tasting the ice in the edges isolation
yet from each site along the rim
the voices of comfort and support
and a song becomes an anthem
so into each isolation a warm voice
‘We know, we understand we’re here’

Baby I Need Your Lovin
(holland, dozier, holland)
Baby I need your lovin
Baby I need your lovin
Although youre never near
Your voice I often hear
Another day, another night
I long to hold you tight
cause Im so lonely
Baby, I need your lovin
I got to have all your lovin
Baby, I need your lovin
Got to have all your lovin
Some say its a sign of weakness
For a man to beg
Then weak Id rather be
If it means havin you to keep
cause lately Ive been losin sleep
Baby, I need your lovin
I got to have all your lovin
Baby, I need your lovin
Got to have all your lovin
Empty nights
Echo your name
Sometimes I wonder
Will I ever be the same
Oh yeah, when you see me smile
You know
Things have gotten worse
Any smile you might see
Has all been rehearsed
Darlin, I cant go on without you
This emptiness wont let me live without you
This loneliness inside me darlin
Makes me feel not alive, honey
Baby, I need your lovin
I got to have all your lovin
Baby, I need your lovin
Got to have all your lovin
Baby, I need your lovin
I got to have all your lovin
Baby, I need your lovin
Got to have all your lovin

Lovin Or Leavin
Its nice to spend the time with you
I know youve got a lot to go for
I like the things you say and do
And yet what do I have to show for
Nice to pass away
Then another break of day
Lovin,
Lovin, lovin or leavin
Im for lovin, lovin or leavin
Lovin, lovin or leavin
I said lovin, lovin or leavin yeah...
We play the old familiar game
Cause life is short, lets keep on movin
Its fun alright, but just the same
Theres more to it then all that showed
All the things come to
I know it will, and so do you
Lovin,
Lovin, lovin or leavin
I said lovin, lovin or leavin
Lovin, lovin or leavin
I said lovin, lovin or leavin yeah...
So thats the way I really feel
I want you badly, oh...we know
Lovin, (ah)
Lovin, lovin or leavin (yeah)
Lovin, lovin or leavin (yeah...Ill tell you)
Lovin, lovin or leavin (hear me)
Lovin, lovin or leavin
Lovin, lovin or leavin (sock it to me)
Lovin, lovin or leavin (yeah)

Isolation
Im stranded here in a dream and theres no ticket back
I feel a cold wind blowin, my future looks black
You left me here and youve taken all my yesterdays
I guess to stand alone is the price that I pay
Now look what youve done to me
Because we just disagree
Im out here alone and its you that Im waiting for
Cant go livin without you, girl
It doesnt matter what you say or do, girl
Cant go livin without you, girl
Isolation
I close my eyes and youre dancin in the moonlight with me
I try to touch you, but you, you had to get free
I turned around and youre nowhere left in sight
Im just a lone survivor, you know it aint right
Now look what youve done to me
Because we just disagree
Im out here alone and its you that Im waiting for
Cant go livin without you, girl
You know that Ill be waiting here for you, girl
Cant go livin without you, girl
Isolation
I remember holding you just yesterday
But youre memory is all that I have today
We were talking bout promises we once had made
But you never came back
Whyd you run away
(you ran away)
Cant go livin without you, girl
It doesnt matter what you say or do
Cant go livin without you, girl
Isolation
Girl, Im so isolated
Cant go livin without you, girl, oh
Girl, you know Im gonna wait for you
Cant go livin without you, girl

Sweet Summer Lovin
Though the sun may be dawning
Youre the one that lights the morning
As I awake to the heaven
Of your sweet summer lovin
By a stream in the country
Running barefoot and feeling free
While the love in our hearts blend
Into sweet summer lovin
Sweet summer lovin in the dandelions
Sweet summer lovin keeps me high as candy wine
When that big red balloon sets
Like a painting across the west
As the sky turns a crimson blue
As the world turns for me and you
By the light of the moon glowing
While the warm summer wind blows
cross the sill of your window
Well be letting our love flow
Sweet summer lovin in the dandelions
Sweet summer lovin keeps me high as candy wine
Sweet summer lovin in the dandelions
Sweet summer lovin keeps me high as candy wine
Sweet summer lovin
Sweet summer lovin
Mmm...
Sweet summer lovin
Mmm...
Sweet summer lovin
I love your sweet summer lovin
Sweet summer lovin
Sweet summer lovin
Mmm...
Sweet summer lovin
Mmm...

All She Wanted
She was a good girl
Been true to herself
Never swayed by the notions of somebody else
Shed had it rough, maybe most of the time
With only one thing on her mind
All she wanted was a lovin man
All she wanted was a lovin man
Who was tryin to do the best that he can
All she wanted was a lovin, lovin man
There could be blue skies in her heart
She was waitin for the good times to start
She never wanted diamonds
She never wanted gold
She was holdin out for someone to hold
All she wanted was a lovin man
All she wanted was a lovin man
Who was tryin to do the best that he can
All she wanted was a lovin, lovin man
A loving man
All she wanted was a lovin man
All she wanted was a lovin man
All she wanted was a lovin man
Who was tryin to do the best that he can
All she wanted was a lovin, lovin man
Loving man
All she wanted was a lovin man
All she wanted was a lovin man
All she wanted was a lovin man
All she wanted was a lovin man

Isolation Is Deadly
Love without compassion,
Skills with no use for others,
And wealth kept for oneself
Will send you to isolation.
Isolation is deadlier
Than the warmth of poseesion.

Your love
Is softer than the rain
Smile and ease the pain
And heal my mind again
Ive got to turn away to keep myself from cryin
But everywhere I turn, I only see you
I need your lovin baby
Got to have your lovin baby
I need your lovin baby
Ive got to have you in every way
Ive got to have you in every way
Ive got to have you in every way
I need your lovin baby
Got to have your lovin baby

Right now

And after we are through,
Then Ill belong to you
Ive got to have you all to myself, yeah
If Ive got you, I dont need nobody else

That Lovin' You Feelin' Again
(Roy): When I saw you standing there on the street,
I found myself by your side.
I started wanting you again;
There's just no way to hide
from that old lovin' you feelin' again,
It's really got me reelin' again.
It only seems to stop
To start all over again with you.
(Emmy): I remember how you always get
that certain look in your eye.
You're not easy to resist,
but I just walked on by
with that old lovin' you feelin' again.(lovin' you feelin')
It's really got me reelin' again.(lovin' you)
It only seems to stop
to start all over again with you, (Lovin' you feelin')
(both): Lovin' you feelin' with you.
(Roy): We were so close.
(Emmy): We were too far apart.
(Roy): I gave you my love.
(emmy): I wanted your heart.
(Both): Without yesterday caught in the way,
maybe we'd still be together,
Sharing that lovin' you feelin' again.
It's really got me reelin' again.
Will it ever stop and not start over again,
That lovin' you feelin' again?.
No matter how much I try,
This lovin' you feelin' is why
It's taken such a long, long time
to say goodbye.
And getting over you. It's so hard to do
with this feeling loving you.
That lovin' you feelin' again,
Lovin' you feelin' again...
That lovin' you feelin' again
Lovin' you feelin' again...
That lovin' you feelin' again
Lovin' you feelin' again...
That lovin' you feelin' again
Lovin' you feelin' again...

Leaving
Actually leaving is a necessity
I leave many times
And much oftener than usual
Most birds leave to warmer places
I go the other way around
In isolation
In an island of isolation
It may be cold
But I am the only bird in there
It is such a nice feeling
Being one and only
Being isolated
Like an experiment
Life, an experiment.

Where There Is A Hole
our lives
interwove...
now
un-darned threads
release the mistake...
a knowing
that is
an end to the end...
splendid isolation
is all you ever needed
not me...
the very last kiss
was the only link to love...
you don't need anyone
in splendid isolation
that's the island where you live...
a hang out,
in meditation...
dividing you from people
you hide
in safe haven
away from everyone...
the mindless,
is where you live...
crashing down
where lonliness is your only friend
and budda does not save you
