Studies In Love #12
The doorway frames
You a perfect picture silouette
Blue sky of regret
Enough to hang out
Your legs seemed to tremble
At least I imagine that they do
Then again, its probly easy for you
Please dont open your mouth my dear
I can read all the signs I can take it from here
Theres no need to explain
Its perfectly clear
The yellow wall paper peels
A strange halo around your head
Its funny how you notice these
Stupid things instead
You say something awkward
But I wish that you wouldnt
A whole life of you wish you coulds
But just couldnts
Please dont open your mouth my dear
I can read all the signs I can take it from here
Theres no need to explain
Its perfectly clear
I try not to fight too much
It only just makes me mad
Spent half my life loving you
Think of all the love that I could have had
Five years of kisses
Packed in my bags
And this tiny moment fits
All the big things we ever had
I cant quite pinpoint
When it left or what for
Love always steps lightly
Away from the door
Please dont open your mouth my dear
I can read all the signs hell Ive known you for years
Theres no need to explain
No theres no need to explain
Theres no need to explain
Its perfectly clear

What Happened To You?
Before you started tokin you used to have a brain
But now you dont get even the simplest of things
I can draw a little picture
Or even use my hands
I try to explain but you just dont understand
Chorus
Man youre really losin it
And youve really done a lot of junk now
But you keep on abusin it
What in the world happened to you
Its bad enough you do it to yourself
But taking someone with you
Well you know thats something else
I say Im not that kind of person
Im not that kind of man
I try to explain but you just dont understand
Chorus
I might be sympathetic or cut a little slack
If I thought that you were willing to give a little back
But you do it in the morning
You do it in the night
You lie to refrain from just facing your life
Chorus
So Ill see you tomorrow
Youll be gackin up again
Ill see you in a coffin by the time your wad is spent
I think of all the times that I tried to lend a hand
I try to explain but you just dont understand

Why Must I Always Explain?
Have to toe the line, Ive got to make the most
Spent all the years going, from pillar to post
Now Im standing on the outside and Im waitin in the rain
Tell me why must I always explain
Bared my soul to the crowd eh but oh what the cost
Most of them laughed out loud like nothings been lost
There were hypocrites and parasites and people that drain
Tell me why must I always explain
Why, why must I always explain
Over and over, over again
Its just a job you know and its no sweet lorraine
Tell me why must I always explain (alright)
Well I get up in the morning and I get my brief
I go out and stare at the world in complete disbelief
Its not righteous indignation that makes me complain
Its the fact that I always have to explain
I cant be everywhere at once, theres always somebody to see
And I never turned out to be the person that you wanted me to be
And I tell you who I am, time and time and time again
Tell me why must I always explain
Well its out on the highway and its on with the show
Always telling people things theyre too lazy to know
It can make you crazy, yeah it can drive you insane
Tell me why must I always explain.

You And Me(song)
i dont care what people think about me
i dont care what people say about me
i dont care about anything around me
all i care about is you
the thought of being with you makes me happy
your voice makes me tingle all inside
your name gives me this feeling i cant explain
i love you and those are the only words that explain how i feel about you
i dont care what people think about me
i dont care what people say about me
i dont care about anything around me
all i care about is you
you and me thats how were ment to be
you and me thats all we'll ever be
both of us together as one forever
i dont care what people think about me
i dont care what people say about me
i dont care about anything around me
all i care about is you
you give me feelings i cant explain
you make me feel like i never felt befor
i cant seem to get you out of my head
i dont care what people think about me
i dont care what people say about me
i dont care about anything around me
all i care about is you
i dont care, i dont care
all i care about is you

Train In Vain
Ohh
Ohh
You say you stand, by your man
Tell me something, I dont understand
You said you loved me, and thats a fact
The you left me, said you felt trapped
Well, some things you cant explain away
And the heartaches with me till this day
You didnt stand by me
No, not at all
You didnt stand by me
No way
All the times, when we were close
Ill remember, these things the most
I see all my walls come tumblin down
I cant be happy, without you around
So alone, I keep the wolves at bay
And theres only one thing I can say
You didnt stand by me
No, not at all
You didnt stand by me
No way
You must explain...why this must be
Did you lie...when you spoke to me?
Did you stand be me?
No, not at all
Now I got a job, but it dont pay
I need new clothes, I need somewhere to stay
But without all of these things I can do
But without your love, I wont see it through
But you dont understand my point of view
I suppose there nothing I can do
You didnt stand by me
No, not at all
You didnt stand by me
No way
You didnt stand by me
No, not at all
You didnt stand by me
No way
You must explain...why this must be
Did you lie...when you spoke to me?
Did you stand be me?
No, not at all
Did you stand by me?
No way
No way
No way
No way
No way

Its Just A Thought
Its just a thought
But Ive noticed somethin strange,
Gettin harder to explain;
All the years are passin bye and bye,
Still I dont know what makes it go;
Who said to wait and youll see?
Its just a thought
But I wondered if you knew
That the song up there is you.
They cant take it from you
If you dont give it away;
Dont give it away; ooh (its given away.)
Its just a thought
But the word has come too late
That a bad idea will take
Just about a lifetime to explain,
And dont you see,
Good ones gonna be much longer;
Whos gonna wait, just to see?

Tell Me Again
Looking at you
And all that weve been through
I just cant forget
Whats going through your head?
So I read what you left on the bed
Different signs, havent said
Its easier to
Try to kill my pain,
My pain, I hate
Its a world affair
So then I cant explain
To you, because the truth
Is something you cant take
*Tell me again
Whats wrong with me?
Why wont you depend on me now?
Just let it happen again
Tell me again
Whats wrong?
That I just dont feel the need to belong
This is no means to an end
Im not what you see, nooo
Been with a few
Oh but not quite like you
And youre crazy like me
What more can I ask for
So you need more
Everybody gets bored
I like all that I see
Its easier to
Try to kill my pain,
My pain, I hate
Its a world affair
So then I cant explain
To you, because the truth
Is something you cant take
[Chorus]
Ill burn you
And turn you
In you all
The others you had left
Alone with
No one is such a shame
You just dont know me yet
And now I think so much about me and you
I couldnt hurt you now
I never got to get up
I promise you
[Chorus]
Cuz Im not what you see
I wont try to be nooo

Signs
You're weighed down with regret
You can't see the road ahead
Or the burden on your back
It seems the trek will never end
The winding paths that still descend
And up above a sky washed black
You just can't bear to look at that
Chorus:
Follow the signs
Open your eyes
Read between the lines of what you see
Look into the soul of reality
Open your mind
Look at the signs
Never look back at yesterday
Keep your gaze steady on the narrow way
Now you've found the sacred tree
You kneel upon the broken wheat
You watch your burden fall away
And all the things you once sought
Now are counted less than lost
For now you see the light of day
The signs were pointing all the way
Repeat chorus
Follow the signs
Follow the signs
Open your eyes
Look at the signs
Open your mind
Follow the signs
Repeat chorus

Some things just can not be explained
how do you explain to somebody you like,
that something happened,
that you can't changed,
it makes you second guess ppl,
when they don't deserve it,
it makes them work harder,
to prove themselves to you,
that they are worth,
more than you are letting them,
but you keep them at a distance,
worry they will bite,
when you know they are a kitten,
sweet, loveable and loyal,
but that still don't stop you,
you keep your distance,
until there is an ocean,
between the two of you,
but when water rise,
there nothing you can do,
to save what you wanted,
you both drifted so far away,
even a life boat wont help you,
yet you remain lost,
in your thoughts,
and your body,
waiting for that day,
when you are able to feel again,
becuz even than,
you can't explain,
your fears and frustration you felt,
not know how to get it off or your chess,
and open up,
it just one of those things,
you don't know how to explain,
no matter how much practice you have.

You Dont Have To See
Verse1:
Spare me advise for a change
Just let me go my own way
I am the one in this thing
I know youre looking out
Checking me for last minute doubt
He makes me happy
When will you take my word
Chorus:
You dont have to want this to work
Its my life and a love deserved
Tearing him down, yeah its a sin
But you dont have to see
What I see in him
Verse2:
There is respect all around
Miracles in what we found
Surely you can understand
And when I come home to him
It just confirms again and again
That I dont have to explain
But to say that hes my man
Chorus:
And you dont have to want this to work
Its my life, its a love deserved
Tearing him down, yeah its a sin
But you dont have to see
What I see in him
Bridge:
Yes it would please me
If youd make it easy
And open up your mind
Chorus:
But you dont have to want this to work
Its my life and a love deserved
Tearing him down, yeah its a sin
But you dont have to see
What I see in him
You dont have to see
What I see in him
But you dont have to see
What I see in him

This Newly Loving Game
I had some time this morning that clarified my mind
The thoughts that drifted past me were of a quiet and gentle kind
I'm not saying I'm in love with you, I'm just saying that I find
That thoughts keep drifting past me of a quiet and gentle kind.
The feelings that I'm having are not easy to explain
It’s been some time since I've been in this newly loving game
It's all slow moving on now and I really can't explain
The rules that we should follow in this newly loving game.
I took the time this afternoon to write my thinking down
And all the time I wondered why and let my mind go round
Around and around the time we've spent and what I feel I've found
It took some time, I wondered why and said my thoughts aloud.
Then I ripped up the paper and I threw it on the floor
The words that I had written were like trying to keep a score
I'd tried to use my reasonings as I had done before
And the marks upon that paper had no meaning anymore.
The way that all this seems to me is not easy to explain
It’s been some time since I've been in this newly loving game
It's all slow moving on now and I really can't explain
The rules that we should follow in this newly loving game.
I spent some time this evening thinkin' of just who I am
What I like about me and what is it that I can
Offer up to someone who, when all this thing began,
Was not needing of lover nor even of a man.
Yes, we do have common interests and we can talk for hours
We share a love of poets and a questioning of power
We hold each other closely even though we're wondering how
This thing that we are making could be completely ours.
The feelings that I have for you are not easy to explain
It’s been some time since I've been in this newly loving game
It's all slow moving on now and I really can't explain
The rules that we should follow in this newly loving game.
There is a lack of time for us and some hurt within our hearts
And that got me on to thinking that our paths are really hard.
The time I took to think today was 'bout us being apart
And the way we are beginning yet not knowing how to start.
The feelings that I have now are not easy to explain
It’s been some time since I've been in this newly loving game
It's all slow moving on now and I really can't explain
The rules that we should follow in this newly loving game.

Explain It To My Heart
I understand theres no future for us here
Guess I fooled myself into thinking there was
Now youve made it clear
Itll never be right
Guess we knew it all along
Now weve got to say good-bye and Ive got to be strong
So tell me one more time how its better for the both of us
Tell me one more time how well hurt each other if we stay
Tell me one more time then darling theres just one more thing
Before you walk away
(chorus)
Explain it to my heart
Its better that were over now
Tell me one more time this is the way that its supposed to be
Tell me that Im better off without you
How its better to forget about you
Darling I understand
Now wont you please explain it to my heart
Now if I try I can see the reasons why
Why we cant stay together and I might convince my mind
But its breaking my heart to know Ive got to let you go
To find that I must leave behind the only love Ive known
Well I can tell myself that I never really needed you
I can tell myself that its better just to say good-bye
I can tell myself a thousand lies
But tell me now
Tell me how do i
(chorus)
Say that Ill be better
If we dont stay together
Say that Ill be better off free
But dont say it to me
Explain it to my heart...

Hang On In There
Dont let go, dont lose your mystique,
Wait a little longer,
Tomorrow brings another feast,
Dont let go, dont lose your reputation,
Thank God youre still alive,
Youre still in one piece,
Hang on in there, dont lose your appetite,
Hang on in there, forget the danger signs,
Fray for that magical moment and it will appear
(dont fight for lost emotions,)
Wait for the sunrise,
And everything will seem so clear,
(look straight ahead, look straight ahead,)
Hang on in there, hang on in there, hang on in there,
Your wish will be granted,
All your problems will disappear,
Dont be a fool, you havent reached your peak,
You got a fast car racing up inside you,
Your life is incomplete,
Hang on in there, hang on in there,
Fray for that magical moment and it will appear
(wait for that moment),
Wait for the sunrise,
Just wait and see and it will seem so clear,
Lets go, lets go - ok now do the change now,
Yeah, hang on in there,
Hang on in there etc.
