I Wanna Be There

(Harley AllenPaul Overstreet)
The first night we brought you home, it scared me half to death.
I stood right beside your crib and counted every breath.
Lookin' at your little face, heaven seemed so close,
It felt all right to ask the Lord for what I want the most.
I wanna be there when you're one,
And you're just learning how to walk.
I wanna be there when you're two,
An' hear the funny ways you talk.
I wanna be there when you're three,
An my wall's covered up with chalk.
My only prayer: I wanna be there.
I'd like to save some money so we could buy a bigger house.
Worked harder at my job to make my family proud.
A million things I've got in mind that I want to do.
God willing, I've got time: that's what I'll give to you.
I wanna be there when you're fifteen,
And you're havin' your first date.
I wanna be there when you're sixteen,
And your heart's had it's first break.
I wanna be there when you're seventeen,
And think that you can't wait.
My only prayer: I wanna be there.
I wanna be there when my little girl.
Was walkin' down the aisle.
I wanna be there, fightin' back the tears,
An' tryin' hard to smile..
I wanna be there with your Momma,
When you're havin' your first child..
My only prayer: I wanna be there.
My only prayer: I wanna be there.

A Song to my Brother

I wanna do something for my elder brother;
I wanna do something that will make him smile;
I wanna do something that he will remember;
I wanna do something that’s unique and clever!

I wanna do something that can make him talk;
I wanna do something that can make him laugh;
I wanna do something that can make him sing;
I wanna do something that will make him brighter!

I wanna do something that can give him joy;
I wanna do something that can boost morale;
I wanna do something that can encourage;
I wanna do something that is unique and forever!

I wanna do something that improves his plight;
I wanna do something that can cheer him up;
I wanna do something that can lift his heart;
I wanna do something for my good old brother!

Take A Look

I don't know what you're after
Wannna know all the details of my disaster
Like an accident on the side of the road
When you're driving past slow but there's nothing to see here
Wanna take a look, take a look
Wanna take a look, take a look
Wanna take a look, take a look
Wanna take a look, take a look
I'm some kind of freak now and
You'll never see me the same
What's all the fuss about?
Are you sure you wanna find out?
Cause once you know the truth
You might wish you'd walked away
Wanna take a look, take a look
Wanna take a look, take a look
Wanna take a look, take a look
Wanna take a look, take a look
What if I'm not able
To put my cards on the table?
And would it liberate you
If you knew what I knew?
It's been over a year now and
I never saw him again
The facts and the fiction
Collide as the bodies untangle
And the traffic moves on like it did
Wanna take a look, take a look
Wanna take a look, take a look
Wanna take a look, take a look
Wanna take a look, take a look
Wanna take a look, take a look
Wanna take a look, take a look
Wanna take a look, take a look
Wanna take a look, take a look

The 'Poem A Day' Project - Day 19

I wanna go home
I don't wanna die
I didn't even start this stupid fight
Whatever the reason, killing don't seem right
I don't wanna die
I wanna go home

I wanna go home
I don't wanna die
The reasons and facts all tend to confuse
Fighting for land that I will never use
I don't wanna die
I wanna go home

I wanna go home
I don't wanna die
I'm tired of shooting and blasting and running
And killing and choking and falling and gunning
I don't wanna die
I wanna go home

I wanna go home
I don't wanna die
Through history soldiers can be heard
Shouting in pain the following words
I don't wanna die
I wanna go home!

I wanna be your girl

I wanna be the girl you wake up beside every morning
I wanna be the girl you hold hands with every time we walk in the park
I wanna be the girl you answer the phone to at 3am In the morning
I wanna be the girl you tell all your secrets to
I wanna be the girl you hold tight
I wanna be the girl you sing to
I wanna be the girl you write love notes too
I wanna be oh so close to you

I wanna give you my love
I wanna show you I care
I wanna show I’ll be there
I wanna kiss you In the pouring rain
I wanna hug you in the icy snow
I wanna never let you go
I wanna make sure no one ever hurts you
And I wanna help you love me in return

And well I just want you to know I love you
I love you
I love and I will never ever let you go
Because I wanna be your girl

Hippy

I don't wanna be what you wanna be
I just wanna be what's right for me
I don't wanna see who you wanna see
Because your friends are no good for me

You say that love's an open door
I see you walking out but I hear you taking more
Now you wanna kick it cause you dropped on the floor

I don't wanna go where you wanna go
Cause when you go you move too slow
I just wanna see what I wanna be
And now it seems that I wanna be free

I'm hearing what you're saying
But I don't know what you're doing
And I need some things explaining
Cause you're evil and you're using
This giving and mistaking
This reality that you're faking
Can't you justify the feeling
And the pain that you're making

Feel

This darkness cooled my light
We move to different sides
I poured the guilt right over my eyes
As I rose to greet the sky
Ive never felt this before
See you dead on the floor
I cant recall a single day
Thats gonna make this pain slip away
My senses have been so cold
Didnt know how to feel or hold
For a second I felt something in you
For a second I believed in you
And I wanna know
And I wanna be
And I wanna feel
And I wanna know
And I wanna be
And I wanna feel
And I wanna know
And I wanna be
And I wanna feel
And I wanna know
And I wanna be
And I wanna feel
We could, my friend
We can
We could, my friend
We can
We should not end
I wanna be part of...
And I wanna know
And I wanna be
And I wanna feel

I Wanna Be the Girl

i wanna be the girl you write songs about
I wanna be the girl you can't live without
I wanna be the girl on the radio
I wanna be that girl you know

I wanna be the intimidating one
I wanna be the one you love
I wanna be the one you can't get over how she looked at you today
I wanna be that girl

I wanna be the girl you tell your mom about
i wanna be the girl you watch walk away
I wanna be the girl you always point out
I wanna be the girl who never heard what you had to say

I wanna be the girl you write songs about
I wanna be the girl you cab't live without
I wanna be the girl on the radio
I wanna be that girl you know

I wanna be that girl
You know the one i mean
I wanna be the girl
You know the one you know

I wanna be the girl who changed your life
I wanna be the girl who's not quite right
I wanna be the girl in your dreams
I wanna be the girl you beg 'be with me'

I wanna be the girl who stands out
I wanna be the one you can't live without
God, I want to be he
I'm so jealous of that girl

I wanna be the girl you write songs about
I wanna be the girl you can't live without
I wanna be the girl on the radio
i wanna be that girl, that girl you know

I Dont Wanna Think About You

Can you leave me here alone now?
I dont wanna hear you say.
That you know me,
That I should be, always doing what you say.
Cause I'm trying to get you today,
And there one thing I know...
CHORUS
I don't wanna think about you, or think about me
Don't wanna figure this out.
I don't wanna think about you, or think about nothing.
Don't wanna talk this one out.
I Won't let you bring me down,
Won't let you shut me out
This time I know
I don't wanna think about you.
When I wake up here tomorrow,
Things will never be the same,
Cause I won't wait,
Cause you won't change,
And you'll always be this way.
Now I'm gonna get you today,
And theres one thing I know...
CHORUS
Run away, run away, I'm running as fast as I can.
Run away, run away, I'll never go back again.
Run away, run away.
I don't wanna think about you
or think about me.
Don't wanna figure this out.
I don't wanna think about you
or think about me.
Don't wanna talk this one out...
CHORUS
Run away, run away, don't wanna think about you!!!
Run away, run away, don't wanna think about you!!!
Run away, run away, don't wanna think about you!!!
Run away, run away...

Do Right To Me Baby

Dont wanna judge nobody, dont wanna be judged,
Dont wanna touch nobody, dont wanna be touched.
Dont wanna hurt nobody, dont wanna be hurt,
Dont wanna treat nobody like they was dirt.
But if you do right to me, baby,
Ill do right to you, too.
Ya got to do unto others
Like youd have them, like youd have them, do unto you.
Dont wanna shoot nobody, dont wanna be shot,
Dont wanna buy nobody, dont wanna be bought.
Dont wanna bury nobody, dont wanna be buried,
Dont wanna marry nobody if theyre already married.
But if you do right to me, baby,
Ill do right to you, too.
Ya got to do unto others
Like youd have them, like youd have them, do unto you.
Dont wanna burn nobody, dont wanna be burned,
Dont wanna learn from nobody what I gotta unlearn.
Dont wanna cheat nobody, dont wanna be cheated,
Dont wanna defeat nobody if they already been defeated.
But if you do right to me, baby,
Ill do right to you, too.
Ya got to do unto others

Dont wanna wink at nobody, dont wanna be winked at,
Dont wanna be used by nobody for a doormat.
Dont wanna confuse nobody, dont wanna be confused,
Dont wanna amuse nobody, dont wanna be amused.
But if you do right to me, baby,
Ill do right to you, too.
Ya got to do unto others
Like youd have them, like youd have them, do unto you.
Dont wanna betray nobody, dont wanna be betrayed,
Dont wanna play with nobody, dont wanna be waylaid.
Dont wanna miss nobody, dont wanna be missed,
Dont put my faith in nobody, not even a scientist.
But if you do right to me, baby,
Ill do right to you, too.
Ya got to do unto others
Like youd have them, like youd have them, do unto you.

I Wanna Roo You

Twenty-third of december
Covered in snow
You in the kitchen
With the lights way down low
I'm in the parlor playing my old guitar
Speaking to you, darling, to find out how you are
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
Come to me softly
Come to me quiet
Know what i'm after
I'm gonna try it
Snowstorm's on the way and we'll be stranded for a week
Come over to the window, look outside take a peek
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
You know i am lonely
And in need of your company
Oh, let your love light shine on down on me
And we can just sit here
Look at the fire
Watch the flames leaping higher and higher
Tea on the stove food in the pan
Ain't going nowhere and we don't have many plans
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
And you know i am lonely
I been in need of your company
Let your love shine on down on me
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
Woo you tonight, pretty baby
Woo you tonight, little darling
Woo you tonight, alright
Woo you tonight

Oh yeahoh yeah

Or is there something wrong with your health?

Lookin' at you baby, to see what's in your head,
And I don't know you, or what's inside,
I've gotta know, yes or no, that you're my type of guy.
Just talk to me, just that extra little bit longer.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And if it don't kill you, I know it can make you stronger.

Wanna Be There

I wanna be there
When you turn out the lights
I wanna be there
But Im here on this lonely highway
In the middle of nowhere
I wanna hold you
If you wake up in the night
I wanna hold you
I wanna be there in the morning
I wanna touch you
cause you know tonight
Theres nowhere else that I would rather be
Im not the same when youre not here with me
Close your eyes and say a little prayed
And baby Im gonna be there

Wanna be there in the morning

Inside Out (feat. Don Henley)

The biggest lie you ever told
Your deepest fear about growing old
The loneliest night you ever spent
The angriest letter you never sent
The girl you swore you'd never leave
The one you kissed on New Year's Eve
The sweetest dream you had last night
Your darkest hour, your hardest fight
I wanna know you, like I know myself
I'm waiting for you, there ain't no one else
I wanna know you, inside out
Chorus:
I wanna dig down deep, I wanna lose some sleep
I wanna scream and shout, I wanna know you inside out
I wanna take my time, I wanna know you're mine
You know there ain't no doubt, I wanna know you inside out
The saddest song you ever heard
The most you said with just one word
The longest prayer you ever prayed
The truest vow you ever made
What makes you laugh, what makes you cry
What makes you mad, what gets you by
Your highest high, your lowest low
There are the things I wanna know
Chorus:
I wanna dig down deep, I wanna lose some sleep
I wanna scream and shout, I wanna know you inside out
I wanna take my time, I wanna know you're mind
You know there ain't no doubt, I wanna know you inside out
I wanna know your soul, I wanna lose control
Come on and let it out
I wanna know you inside out
Chorus:
I wanna dig down deep, I wanna lose some sleep
I wanna scream and shout, I wanna know you inside out
I wanna take my time, I wanna know you're mine
You know there ain't no doubt, I wanna know you inside out

Swim

could not believe
came here today
helmet was on
you blew me away
house is on fire
we're naked again
maybe all we need
is water and friends

shackles and chains
won't keep me away
temple is you
and my brow is insane

I wanna be just like you
I wanna feel right through you
I wanna see just with you
I wanna live
I wanna die you

thinning ice
14 hairdryers
swimming to you
flame on earth desire
poor on the rise
rich on the fall
this cripple's with you
fame is a whore

I wanna fit inside you
I wanna room inside you
if money talks I wanna buy you
I wanna die
I wanna die
I wanna live you

I'm not scared of you
gave up on drugs
if I make it through
the jaws of love
jaws of love

you give
