You Can't Get What You Want

Sometimes you start feelin' so lost and lonely
Then you'll find it's all been in your mind
Sometimes you think someone is the one and only
Can't you see, it could be you and me?
But if there's any doubt
Then i think i'll leave it out
'cause i'll tell you one thing
You can't get what you want
Till you know what you want
Said you can't get what you want
Till you know what you want
Sometimes you keep busy reaching out for something
You don't care, there's always something there
Sometimes you can't see that all you need is one thing
If it's right, you could sleep at night
But it can take some time
But at least i'm here in line
'cause i'll tell you one thing
You can't get what you want
Till you know what you want
Said you can't get what you want
Till you know what you want
Sometimes you can't see that all you need is one thing
If it's right, you could sleep at night
But it can take some time
But at least i'm here in line
'cause i'll tell you one thing
You can't get what you want
Till you know what you want
Said you can't get what you want
Till you know what you want

'Till I Can Make It On My Own

I'll need time to get you off my mind
And I may sometimes bother you
Try to be in touch with you
Even ask too much of you
From time to time.
Now and then
Lord, you know I'll need a friend
Till I get used to losing you
Let me keep on using you
Till I can make it on my own.
I'll get by but no matter how I try
There'll be times you know I'll call
Chances are, my tears will fall
And I'll have no pride at all
From time to time.
But they say
Oh, there'll be a brighter day
But till then I lean on you
That's all I mean to do
Till I can make it on my own.
Surely, someday I'll look up
And see the morning sun
Without another lonely night behind me
Then I'll know I'm over you
And all my crying's done
No more hurting memories can find me.
But till then I lean on you
That's all I mean to do
Till I can make it on my own.
Lord, you know, I'm gonna need a friend
Till I get used to losing you
Let me keep on using you
Till I can make it on my own...

'Til I Can't Take It Anymore

Let's not fight it anymore
Unpack the bags and close the door, I'll never leave you
For you lied right from the start
I can't convince my foolish heart not to believe you, no no

You've got other love strung out
And there's not the slightest doubt that other loves have loved you before
But you do your thing so well
I dream of heaven and live in hell till I can't take it anymore

If I had one ounce of pride
I'd stand up or step aside but I still love you
So I'll accept the crumbs you drop
'Cause I'm a fool and I can't stop or rise above you

While you're makin' up your mind
I'll be prayin' all the time, prayin' that you won't be letting me go
Yes, you do your thing so well
I dream of heaven and live in hell till I can't take it anymore

While you're makin' up your mind
I'll be prayin' all the time, prayin' that you won't be letting me go
Yes, you do your thing so well
I dream of heaven and live in hell till I can't take it anymore

Later Tonight

You wait till later
till later tonight
You wait till later, till later
till later tonight
That boy never cast a look in your direction
Never tried to hook for your affection
Dresses like the mod of your invention, tall and proud
He is the head boy of the school of thought
That plays in your intentions, night and day
And you wait till later
till later tonight
You wait till later, till later
till later tonight
And you wait till later
till later tonight
You wait till later, till later
till later tonight
cause tonight always comes

Try Some, Buy Some

Way back in time
Someone said try some
I tried some
Now buy some - I bought some . . .
Oh oh oh
After a while
When I had tried them
Denied them
I opened my eyes and
I saw you . . .
Not a thing did I have
Not a thing did I see
'till I called on your love
And your love came to me
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Through my life
I've seen gray sky
Met big fry,
Seen them die to get high . . .
Oh oh oh
And when it seemed that I would
Always be lonely
I opened my eyes and I saw you
Not a thing did I feel
Not a thing did I know
'till I called on your love
And your love sure did grow
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Won't you try some
Baby won't you buy some
Won't you try some
Baby won't you buy some

Till We Get The Healing Done

Down those old ancient streets
Down those old ancient roads
Baby there together we must go
Till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Till youre satisfied with your life
Till youre satisfied with your life
Till youre satisfied with your life
And its running right, and its running right
Till you deal with the poison inside
Sometimes youve got to sit down and cry
When you deal with the poison inside
Till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Till you feel the tingle up your spine
Till youre satisfied and youre mine
Till you feel a tingle up your spine
Till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Till you live in the glory of the one
Till you live in the land of the sun
Till you feel like your life has just begun
Till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Till we dwell in the house of the lord
Till you dont have to worry no more
Till you open a brand new world
Till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Till it makes you feel alright
Till youre satisfied with your life
Till you know you live in the light
Till we get the healing done
Oh till we get the healing done
Till you look at the mountains every day
Till you wash all your troubles away
And you live right here in the day
Till we get the healing done
Oh till we get the healing done
Oh till its truth and its beauty and its grace
Till youve finally found your true place
Till you know your original face
Till we get the healing done
Oh child, till we get the healing done
Oh when everythings going right
Till youre satisfied with your life
Till youre living in the light
Till we get the healing done
Oh till we get the healing done
Oh when you feel it, when you feel it in your soul
Baby, and you really know
That you reap just what you sow
When we get the healing done
Oh till we get the healing done
Till you know that its working every time
Till you work it out in your mind
And you know it straight down the line
Till you get the healing done
Oh make no worry till we get the healing done
Oh we gonna go back, back to our favourite place
Oh look at it again
See it all through different eyes
When we get the healing done
Oh when we get the healing done
Oh were living for the grace of the lord
Baby feel so good about it all
Oh give thanks every day
Till we get the healing done
Oh till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Oh baby, baby till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Baby you got to stay
Till we get the healing done
If it takes to the break of day
Till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
Till we get the healing done
You got to stay all night long
Till we get the healing done

Hit It

1st verse
Somebody said what are you doin down there
Trying to make me a living
All I want is to get my fair share
Im pleading but nobodys giving
Maybe Im wrong, and I dont see things clear
But I know how I feel after all the these years
Ill keep fighting the pain and the heartache and tears
Chorus
Then Ill push it, going to work it
Keep right on till I hit it
Im going to push it, going to work it
Keep right on till I hit it
Push it, going to work it
Keep right on till I hit it
Im going to push it, going to work it
Keep right on till I hit it
2nd verse
Looking up cause Ive got time to spare
Today the sun aint shining
Im still searching everywhere
For my cloud with the silver lining
People say that enough is enough
Turn my back on this thing put it down to bad luck
But the day I do that, then my life will be up
Chorus
So Ill push it, going to work it
Keep right on till I hit it
Im going to push it, going to work it
Keep right on till I hit it
Push it, going to work it
Keep right on till I hit it
Im going to push it, going to work it
Keep right on till I hit it

Sure Thing

Its saturday night and its a perfect night for dancin
Ive had my makeup off and on all day
But its gotta be right for a night of sweet romancing
And Ive combed my hair at least a thousand ways
Mirror mirror dont you tell a soul
Of how I smiled and talked all day to you
And how I practiced every step I know of
But tonights the night and Im a dancing fool
Chorus:
(its a sure thing) when the sun goes down this evenin
(its a sure thing) to be out on the dancing floor
(its a sure thing) Ill be the last one leavin
(its a sure thing) gonna dance till I cant no more
I could of had a date but I thought Id take my chances
Im gonna dance with a different guy to every song
Then Im a gonna wait till the right one strikes my fancy
The hes gonna be the one to dance me home

Till I Go Down

Till I go down
Till I go down
Till I go down
Im not gonna shut my eyes
Till I go down
Im not gonna shut my eyes
Ive already seen the lies
On the faces of the men of war
Leading people to the killing floor
Till I go down
Till I go down
Till I go down
Im not gonna shut my eyes
No no
Till I go down
Till the world stops spinning around
Till Im six feet under the ground
Till theres no sound
Till theres no pain
Im gonna swing this chain
Till I go down
Im not gonna shut my mouth
Im for the truth to come out
About the leader with the iron will
And his allegiance to the dollar bill
Till I go down
Till I go down
Till I go down
Im not gonna shut my eyes
Till I go down

The Mat

Woke up this morning, thinking about you,
Night creeping, it's all that I could do.
Talked till ___ about someone whose situation ___ then I start singing,
Baby, my heart's breakin', don't cry, that's not the thing to do.
I'd rather be lonely ___ In the mornin' sleep sun comes shine baby,
Thanked by you and the bells start ringing and though you love me, 'cause
You made me believe you if you don't take up your ___
Your good thing's gonna leave, you're gonna cry, baby,
That's not the thing to do, I'd rather be lonely,
But start singing girl, you got me jumpin' o pretty mama,
But just what you're doing ___ any case I really can't say, my mind is reelin',
I got the craziest feeling, sweet baby,
Whatever you're doin', you do it the right way,
Whatever you're doin', that's all right with me.
Say believin', that doesn't sound right with me baby, I will cry,
I just wanted you to be happy, but can't you see girl ___
Every little once in a while, I'm gonna catch an old freight train.
And grab me a ___ you're ___ that's what you're gonna do, I'd rather be lonely.
My heart is jumpin' girl, you stared somethin' inside of me,
I don't know what it is, I just can't say, my mind is reelin',
I got the craziest feelin' inside of me,
Whatever you're doing, you do it the right way,
Whatever you're doin', that's all right with me.
So uptight I love you ___ girl, I tried to love you, but I can't do nothin' right.
You know I love you, you're my sweet lovin' baby, have a little ___
You're drivin' me crazy, makin' me cry, that's not the thing to do,
I'd rather be lonely ... It is hard ...
I'll tell you, baby, you trie

Children Of This Time

She spends one evening alone shes on fire
Thinkin of you in a dream
You come home and she says youre a liar
Asking where have you been
But shes the angel of your heart
Theres not a thing that could set you apar
T if nothing coms by till the end
If nothing goes wrong
She will always be your friend
Youre a fool when you think that shes someone
Who would believe in a li
E youre a fool when you dont think shes someone
Whom you can make cry
Cause youre the hero of her heart
Theres not a thing that could set you apart
If nothing goes wrong
You will always be her friend
You are the children of this time
You are the bread and the wine
You are compions till the end
Youve got yourselves to defend
Give her more so much more and youll find out
That it will come in return
Tell her more so much more about your feelings
And she will make them burn
Cause youre the children of today
Theres not a thing that could stand in your way
If nothing comes by till the end
If nothing goes wrong
You will always be friends

Its Not A Song

Day turns to night, and I turn into bed.
Cant get to sleep; somethings in my head.
Pacing the floor, I try to force a rhyme.
Why do I fear this time?
Its not a song till it touches your heart.
Its not a song till it tears you apart.
After whats left of whats right and whats wrong,
Till it gets through to you,
Its not a song.
Now close your eyes; look into your hand.
What do you see?
Life is our song, to give and learn to take.
Time will not wait.
Oh, wont you please come dance,
While the songs still playing,
Wont be long till the silence falls.
Its not a song till it touches your heart. (its not a song.)
Its not a song till it tears you apart.
After whats left of whats right and whats wrong,
Till it gets through to you,
Its not a song.
Its not a song till it touches your heart. (its not a song.)
Its not a song till it tears you apart.
After whats left of whats right and whats wrong,
Till it gets through to you,
Its not a song.
Its not a song till it touches your heart. (its not a song.)
Its not a song till it tears you apart.
After whats left of whats right and whats wrong,
Till it gets through to you,
Its not a song.
Its not a song till it touches your heart. (its not a song.)
Its not a song till it tears you apart.
After whats left of whats right and whats wrong,
Till it gets through to you,

Till The End

I know whats on your mind
Lets lay it on the line
All the things were missin
Look I just came back to town
Drink that green dragon down
Its time for me talk and you to listen
I know my heart, I know it well
Bet your analyst forgot to ask that question
Were at the start and time will tell
Chorus:
Till the end
Your name will touch my lips like prayin
Till the end
Ill be the keeper of the words your heart is sayin
Till the end
You and I will learn a language new and unspoken
Till the end
Well be the ones who hold the key to a lock thats open
Girl not so long ago
A boy that didnt know
That he was hurtin
Pushed somebody down
They fell and hit the gound
But I never meant for you to be that person
You know my heart, you know me well
Its never been my style to take advantage
Were at the start and time will tell

The Rower's Chant

ROW till the land dip 'neath
The sea from view.
Row till a land peep up,
A home for you.

Row till the mast sing songs
Welcome and sweet,
Row till the waves, outstripped,
Give up, dead beat.

Row till the sea-nymphs rise
To ask you why
Rowing you tarry not
To hear them sigh.

Row till the stars grow bright
Like certain eyes.
Row till the noon be high
As hopes you prize.

Row till you harbour in
All longing's port.
Row till you find all things
For which you sought.

Shadows Of The Big Man

Wake up see the morning light
This is you
This is today
You try so hard to get it right
Can't help thinking somewhere you lost your way
When was the last time
You saw a smile?
There's a scream on every silent face you see
They're singing set me free
I got a friend
Who burns like a fire
Says there's only one thing you'll ever know
It's out there somewhere
Way past the sunset line
Way out on the open road
And me I'm always looking down
Down that road out of town
Each morning and night
You can see me
I'm singing set me free
Set me free
Goodnight auberge
I leave you now
You must sleep
While I work the day
Till I return
To dream of you
Through the night
And that free, freeway

Till I Met You

(odette quesada)
I never dream
cause I always thought that dreaming was for kids
Just a childish thing
And I could swear
Love was just a game that children play
And no more than a game
Till I met you
I never knew what love was
Till I met you
This feeling seems to grow more everyday
I love you more each day
I believe you
I believe in every word when you say
I love you all the way
Now I can swear
Love is not a game that children play
So tell me that youll stay
Till I met you
I never knew what love was
Till I met you
This feeling seems to grow more everyday
I love you more each day...ohhh
You and I should be together
Cant you see, cant you see
(instrumental)
Till I met you
I never knew what love was
Till I met you
This feeling seems to grow more everyday
I love you more each day
Till I met you
I never knew what love was
Till I met you
This feeling seems to grow more everyday
I love you more each day
Till I met you
Till I met you
Till I met you
Till I met you
Till I met you...

For A Rocker

Open the door, baby turn on the light
Were gonna have a party tonight
For a rocker
For a rocker
I know its late and youre already down
You aint ready for people around
Im gonna tell you something I found out
Whatever you think your life is about
Whatever life may hold in store
Things will happen that you wont be ready for
Ive got a shirt so unbelievably bright
Im gonna dig it out and wear it tonight
For a rocker
For a rocker
For a rocker
For a rocker
Dont have to change, dont have to be sweet
Gonna be too many people to possibly meet
Dont have to feed em, they dont eat
Theyve got their power supplies in the soles of their feet
They exist for one thing, and one thing only
To escape living the lives of the lonely
For a friend of mine, from the neighborhood
Moving down the line, after tonight hell be gone for good
Here comes ricky, danny, and doerge
They got peties number and theyre looking at me
Russell and bobby setting up the drums
Gonna pound on till the landlord comes
Dont want to argue, I dont want to fight
But there will definitely be a party tonight
For a rocker
For a rocker
For a rocker
For a rocker
till the morning comes, till the car arrives
till we kill the drums, till we lose our lives
Hey jenny, tell peggy sue
Were gonna do the only thing you can do
For a rocker
For a rocker
For a rocker
For a rocker

Scared Away

Somebody once said
Stop when the light turns red
I know the story
But I don't want the glory
Cause when you're shot down
You're gonna hit ground
But they don't feel it
No they won't heal it
I've given everything
I've played the name game
I sent my get well cards
And never got an answer
Don't want my money back
These cards are not stacked
And I don't need it
I won't believe it this time
I won't believe it this time
No I don't need it
I won't believe it
This bridge is your's to burn (this bridge is your's)
No room for more
Can only offer what you've been shaking under me
Fakin till you see what's wrong with me
Can I get close enough
So you can hold me up
And tell me over and over
I went bad again
I'll tell you one thing
Without a promise ring
That I don't need it
I won't believe it
When it's down to this
I get oblivious
I see you looking
But you don't wanna see a thing
Being so scared
Can't get you anywhere
And I don't need it
I won't believe it this time
I won't believe it this time
No I don't need it
I won't believe it
This bridge is your's to burn (this bridge is your's)
No room for more
Can only offer what you've been shakin under me
Fakin till you see what's wrong with me
See what's wrong see what's wrong
See what's wrong with me, what's wrong with me
Me looking at you, you looking away
And I'm wondering how the one I know had changed
Me reaching to touch someone
But you're gone, tired now
Scared away somehow
Scared away somehow
This bridge is your's to burn (this bridge is your's)
No room for more
Can only offer what you've been shakin under me
Fakin till you see what's wrong with me
This bridge is your's to burn (this bridge is your's)
No room for more
Can only offer what you've been shakin under me
Fakin till you see what's wrong
