Both Sides, Now
Rows and floes of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons evrywhere
Ive looked at clouds that way
But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on evryone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way
Ive looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
Its cloud illusions I recall
I really dont know clouds at all
Moons and junes and ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way you feel
As evry fairy tale comes real
Ive looked at love that way
But now its just another show
You leave em laughing when you go
And if you care, dont let them know
Dont give yourself away
Ive looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
Its loves illusions I recall
I really dont know love at all
Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say I love you right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
Ive looked at life that way
But now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say Ive changed
Well somethings lost, but somethings gained
In living evry day
Ive looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
Its lifes illusions I recall
I really dont know life at all
Ive looked at life from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
Its lifes illusions I recall
I really dont know life at all

On acid stars your getting there

You leave em laughing when you go

I Dont Remember
I got no means to show identification
I got no papers show you what I am
Youll have to take me just the way that you find me
Whats gone is gone and I do not give a damn
Empty stomach, empty head
I got empty heart and empty bed
I dont remember
I dont remember
I dont remember, I dont recall
I got no memory of anything at all
I dont remember, I dont recall
I got no memory of anything
-anything at all
Strange is your language and I have no decoder
Why dont you make your intentions clear
With eyes to the sun and your mouth to the soda
Saying, tell me the truth, you got nothing to fear
Stop staring at me like a bird of prey
Im all mixed up, I got nothing to say
I dont remember
I dont remember
I dont remember, I dont recall
I got no memory of anything at all
I dont remember, I dont recall
I got no memory of anything
Anything at all
I dont remember, I dont recall
I got no memory of anything at all
I dont remember, I dont recall
I got no memory of anything
Absolutely anything at all
I dont remember

My Life
Oooh
(my life, my life, my life, my life)
If you looked in my life
And see what Ive seen...
If you looked in my life
And see what Ive seen...
(my life, my life, my life, my life)
Life can be only what you make it
When youre feelin down
You should never fake it
Say whats on your mind
And youll find in time
That all the negative energy
It would all cease
And youll be at peace with yourself
You wont really need no one else
Except for the man up above
Because hell give you love
(my life, my life, my life, my life)
If you looked into my life
Take your time
Baby dont you rush a thing
Dont you know, I know
We all are struggling
I know it is hard
But we will get by
And if you dont believe in me
Just believe in he
Cause hell give you peace of mind
Yes he will
And youll see the sunshine
For real, yes you would
And youll get to free your mind
And things will turn out fine
Oh, I know that things will turn out fine
Yes they would, yes they would

Dont Ya Tell Henry
Dont ya tell henry,
Apples got your fly.
I went down to the river on a saturday morn,
A-lookin around just to see whos born.
I found a little chicken down on his knees,
I went up and yelled to him,
Please, please, please!
He said, dont ya tell henry,
Dont ya tell henry,
Dont ya tell henry,
Apples got your fly.
I went down to the corner at a-half past ten,
Is lookin around, I wouldnt say when.
I looked down low, I looked above,
And who did I see but the one I love.
She said, dont ya tell henry,
Dont ya tell henry,
Dont ya tell henry,
Apples got your fly.
Now, I went down to the beanery at half past twelve,
A-lookin around just to see myself.
I spotted a horse and a donkey, too,
I looked for a cow and I saw me a few.
They said, dont ya tell henry,
Dont ya tell henry,
Dont ya tell henry,
Apples got your fly.
Now, I went down to the pumphouse the other night,
A-lookin around, it was outa sight.
I looked high and low for that big ol tree,
I did go upstairs but I didnt see nobody but me.
I said, dont ya tell henry,
Dont ya tell henry,
Dont ya tell henry,
Apples got your fly.

Love Dont Love You
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care
Love dont love you, love dont care
Verse 1:
You said youd always be there
You said youd always care
You always comfort me
You used to share things with me
You used to have time for me
Now it all seemed to end
I cant control my fears
Neither hold back tears
Knowing that somethings wrong, yeah
The more that I fight with you
The more I realize
It takes more than love
To satisfy my life
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care (its got to be you, baby)
Love dont love you, love dont care (not love, baby)
Verse 2:
I thought I never would see
The day that you and me
Could not communicate
It came to my surprise
The only reason why
We misused the four-letter words
I should have known the signs
Instead I was blind
Ignoring what people would say
When will I ever learn
Cant blame it all on one word
Some words can seem more brutal than kind
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care (love dont love you)
Love dont love you, love dont care (got to be you)
Love dont love you (love dont care about you, no way, no way, no way)
Love dont care no way
Bridge:
You see it takes a fool to learn
That love dont love nobody (got to be you)
But Ive learned
That love dont love me
And it sure cant love you (can only be you, oh)
So what are you gonna do
Dont just say you love me (baby)
You got to show me (show me that you care)
So where do we go from here
You tell me
You got to show me that you love me
Show me that you care
I need to know that you will always be there
Im gonna be there for you
Love dont love no one
And it sure dont care
Love dont love nobody
You should take my advice
Show me that you love me
Show me that you care, baby
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care
Love dont love you, love dont care
(repeat chorus)

Its Not For Me To Know
Easy come and easy go for me that was the fun
It was something that I didnt think was so bad
Now Im lookin out my window but I dont know where I am
And Ive give up trying to understand what I cant
I dont have any illusions anymore Ive done all that I can do
Its not for me to know its not for me to know
Its not for me to know its not for me to know
I stood under the moonlight to ill-luminate myself
Something I fell into from being kicked around
I dont have any illusions anymore Ive done all that I can do
Its not for me to know its not for me to know
Its not for me to know its not for me to know
No one seemed to notice seeing from smoke screen eyes
You can get what you want but I dont think it is true
I dont have any illusions anymore Ive done all that I can do
Its not for me to know its not for me to know
Its not for me to know its not for me to know
Its not for me to know its not for me to know

Last Love Song
If you dont love me
Please dont treat me this way
Cause I cant stand it
I see our love slipping away
Did you think you could just put me down
Like a worn out shoe
Cause if you dont want me
Maybe I dont want you
If you dont need me
Dont leave me out in the cold
Eyes drifting by me
Like somebody you dont know
Did you think that you could just walk away
Anytime you wanted to
Cause if you dont love me
Maybe I dont love you
Did you think that you could just put me down
For somebody new
Cause nobody can love you girl like I do
Every little bird in the sky
Would sing a song of love
If you would just take me back
Come on open up your heart again
Let me in baby baby
If you dont love me
Stop fooling yourself
No more acting
I know your show too well
Did you think that you could just shake my hand
With a how dydo
Cause if you dont want me
Maybe I dont want you
Oh and as you go through life
Its the little things that come back again
If you came back again
You know Id give my loving to you

Deadlock Holiday
I was walkin down the street
Concentratin on truckin right
I heard a dark voice beside of me
And I looked round in a state of fright
I saw four faces, one mad
A brother from the gutter
They looked me up and down a bit
And turned to each other
I say
I dont like cricket oh no
I love it
I dont like cricket no no
I love it
Dont you walk through my words
Got to show some respect
Dont you walk through my words
cause you aint heard me out yet
Well he looked down at my silver chain
He said Ill give you one dollar
I said you got to be jokin man,
It was a present from me mother
He said I like it, I want it,
Ill take it off your hands
And youll be sorry you crossed me
Youd better understand that youre alone,
A long way from home!
I say
I dont like reggae no no
I love it
I dont like reggae
I love it
Dont you cramp me style
Dont you queer me pitch
Dont you walk through my words
cause you aint heard me out yet
I hurried back to the swimming pool
Sinkin pina calarda
I heard a dark voice beside me say
Would you like something harder
She said Ive got it, you want it,
My harvest is the best
And if you try it, youll like it
And whollow in a dreadlock holiday
And I say
Dont like jamaica oh no
I love her
Dont like jamaica oh no
I love her oh yea
Dont you walk through her words
Got to show some respect
Dont you walk through her words
cause you aint heard her out yet
I dont like cricket
I love it dreadlock holiday
I dont like reggae
I love it dreadlock holiday
Dont like jamaica
I love it dreadlock holiday

Fallin In Luv
Me and my baby were just going round,
Not getting on luv,not puting it down,
We had the kind of sweet affair,
We both felt we needed.
No psychic fusion,just a steady date,
No grand illusions of the romantic fates,
She looked for her,i looked for me,
Dont know why we conceded.
Chorus:
cos we were high,now were low,
Tell me why did we go,
Falling in luv,
Falling in luv.
Under pressure from family and friends,
They seem to treasure a storybook end,
One look at them I realise luv is real overated.
Chorus repeated.

Have no illusions
Have no illusions –
Life is challenging
Have no illusions –
Marriage is not easy
Have no illusions –
Sometimes you’ll question
Have no illusions –
You will find fault
Have no illusions –
This is marriage
Have no illusions –
You will work it out
Have no illusions –
Hardship brings strength
Have no illusions –
You are each other’s rock
Have no illusions –
Love will endure.

the Touch**********************1979
i looked up into the deep blue sky
little white clouds were floating by
i looked upon this young girls face
she held it down in disgrace.
i looked upon her cheeks so fair
she looked up to me to see if i care
i looked at her with content
and she knew right there it was heaven sent.
she smiled at me, and our eyes then touched
we knew then, it was much to much.
our hearts entwined and her lips met mine
we felt right there it was a love divine.

Go Away
Well I think of you when I fantasize
The best I ever had
And I think of you when Im drivin
Myself completely mad
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
Walkin on the footbridge
High above the clouds
Listenin to your yesterday
Didnt make a sound
Dazzled by your sweet lips
Touchin on me
Here comes trouble
Cant you see?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
Well I think of you when I dramatize
The things we never did
And I think of you when Im flyin
Or when Im feelin just like a kid
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?

Temptation
did it ever feel just right for you,
have you ever wonder who we are,
pleasures in our life are fair and few,
have you ever looked for something more
this life, aint big enough, aint fair enough, some times we dont get to shine,
I remember feeling owned by you, that I would never get make you mine
Dont tempt me, now Im falling,
to much water under that bridge,
the bullet aint the same with out you now,
its turning
body get my conciseness and please
leave me no room to breathe
the strength cant find the heart that feels
and you dont feel the same for me
like a big professional, cool to the bone,
is my pain what gets you off
I really need to suffer underneath your hands as long as you dont stop
Dont tempt me, now Im falling,
to much water under that bridge,
the bullet aint the same with out you now,
not like Iknow what I took for granted it strapped me in the face
falling from your favoritebitter flavor of disgrace
distracted staring at me, my life it looks so real
and you know where it sides inside when your suffering
Dont tempt me, now Im falling,
to much water under that bridge,
the bullet aint the same with out you now,
its turning
Dont tempt me, now Im falling,
to much water under that bridge,
the bullet aint the same with out you now,

Virgo's Tale
Walk but dont run
Run but dont fly
Silent, dont talk
Talk but dont cry
Cry but dont feel
Feel but dont give in
Give in but dont die
Motherfu....
Now we just got one life
Let it rain but dont cry!
Everything is all right
It's just a way of sayin' goodbye!
Move but dont dance.
Dance but dont sing.
Sing but dont cry.
Breakdown and let it...
Joke but dont hurt.
Hurt but dont bleed.
Bleed but dont lie.
Just let it go to sleep.
Now we just got one life
Let it rain but dont cry!
Everything is all right
It's just a way of sayin' goodbye!
Hate but dont love.
Love but dont hate.
Smash but dont break.
Fear, but not shake.
Fame but not greed.
Shame what you succeed.
Yell but dont scream.
Build a breaking dream.
Do we just have one life?
Let it rain but dont cry
Everything is all right
Its just a way of sayin' goodbye
Now we just got one life
Let it rain but dont cry!
Everything is all right
It's just a way of sayin' goodbye!
Now we just got one life
Let it rain but dont cry!
Everything is all right

I Dont Care Anymore
Well you can tell evryone Im a down disgrace
Drag my name all over the place.
I dont care anymore.
You can tell evrybody bout the state Im in
You wont catch me crying cos I just cant win.
I dont care anymore I dont care anymore
I dont care what you say
I dont play the same games you play.
cos Ive been talking to the people that you call your friends
And it seems to me theres a means to and end.
They dont care anymore.
And as for me I can sit here and bide my time
I got nothing to lose if I speak my mind.
I dont care anymore I dont care no more
I dont care what you say
We never played by the same rules anyway.
I wont be there anymore
Get out of my way
Let me by
I got better things to do with my time
I dont care anymore I dont care anymore
I dont care anymore I dont care anymore
Well, I dont care now what you say
cos evry day Im feeling fine with myself
And I dont care now what you say
Hey Ill do alright by myself
cos I know.
cos I remember all the times I tried so hard
And you laughed in my face cos you held all the cards.
I dont care anymore.
And I really aint bothered what you think of me
cos all I want of you is just a let me be.
I dont care anymore dyou hear? I dont care no more
I dont care what you say
I never did believe you much anyway.
I wont be there no more
So get out of my way.

Why Me
(olivia newton-john)
Oh dont ask why me, why me why not me
Why not me is the thing
Dont ask why me, lifes running by me
Live each moment that it brings
Take the time to smell the roses
Take the time to watch the stars
Take the time to see your child grow
Daddy now I know
Daddy now I know
Oh dont ask why me, why me why not me
Yes time is going fast
Im starting to question, what is lifes intention?
Guess Ive been too scared to ask
But Im letting go, to God in his wisdom
Or whoever that may be
Nobody knows who plans your future
Or decides your destiny
Oh dont say why me
Oh dont say why me
Oh dont say why me
Oh dont say why me
Life does the strangest things
You never know
What each moment can bring
You turn around
Your life has changed
Youve got to fight each round
Yes take it on the chin
No dont you ever give in
Oh dont say why me, say life just try me
And grow from all your tears
Every obstacle before you
Is a tool to face your fears
Yes now I know, its time to slow down
Its the sign to take control
For too many years Ive been a victim
But daddy now I know
Daddy now I know
Oh dont say why me
Oh dont say why me
Oh dont say why me
Oh dont say why me
Youve got to fight each round take it on the chin
And never never never ever give in
Fight each round take it on the chin
And never never never ever give in
Daddy now I know

I Dont Think You Know Me
If you think I want the life you choose to live
I dont think I want the love youve got to give
If you think my goals could be so trivial and small
Then, I dont think you know me at all
Born between the covers of your fashion books
You think you can make it, girl, on just your looks
But you could never bring me up
Between us stands a wall
No, I dont think you know me at all
Believing in the promise painted in your smile
Ive chased what I was running from, girl, all my life
Ive known you a hundred times in memories I recall, but
I dont think you know me at all
I dont think you know me at all.

I dont want to harm you
I dont want to alarm you
I am the iron fist in a velvet glove

Its everything
You say love is a bed of nails
Its everything
Cadillacs and fairy tales
Its everything to me
I dont want to want you, but Im gonna try
I dont want to shake you, but I think I could anyway
I dont want to hide you
I dont want to bribe you
This life is lonly like an ider down

Down in the alley
Im in a haven
A rainbow in a jar
Im sleeping in my car
Everything
Its everything it would be, could be
Its a fairy tale and a bed of nails
Its everything
Satellites and starry nights
Its everything, everything to me
Its everything
You say love is a bed of nails
Its everything
And Im strange, but Im free...
I dont want to love you, but I guess I will...
