Cambodia
Written by ricky & marty wilde
Well he was thailand based
She was an airforce wife
He used to fly weekends
It was the easy life
But then it turned around
And he began to change
She didnt wonder then
She didnt think it strange
But then he got a call
He had to leave that night
He couldnt say too much
But it would be alright
He didnt need to pack
Theyd meet the next night
He had a job to do
Flying to cambodia
And as the nights passed by
She tried to trace the past
The way he used to look
The way he used to laugh
I guess shell never know
What got inside his soul
She couldnt make it out
Just couldnt take it all
He had the saddest eyes
The girl had ever seen
He used to cry some nights
As though he lived a dream
Ans as she held him close
He used to search her face
As though she knew the truth
Lost inside cambodia
But then a call came through
They said hed soon be home
She had to pack a case
And they would make a rendez-vous
But now a year has passed
And not a single word
And all the love she knew
Has disappeared out in the haze
Cambodia - dont cry now - no tears now
And now the years have passed
With not a single word
But there is only one thing left
I know for sure
She wont see his face again

Far Behind
Now maybe I didnt mean to treat you bad
But I did it anyway
And not maybe
Some would say your life was sad
But you lived it anyway
And now maybe
Your friends they stand beside they watch you crumble
As you falter to the ground
And now maybe
Your friends they stand beside as you were flying
Oh you were flying oh so high
But then some day people look at you for what they call their own
They watch you suffer
Yeah they hear you calling home
But then some day we could take our time
To brush the leaves aside so you can reach us
But you left me far behind
Now maybe I didnt mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe some would say youre left with what you had
But you couldnt share the pain
No, no, no
Couldnt share the pain they watch you suffer
Now maybe I could have made my own mistakes
But I live with what Ive known
Yes maybe we might share in something great
But wont you look at where weve grown
Wont you look at where weve gone
But then someday comes tomorrow holds a sense of what I fear for you in my mind
As you trip the final line
And that cold day when you lost control
Shame you left my life
So soon you should have told me
But you left me far behind
Now maybe I didnt meant to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe some would say youre left with what you had
But you couldnt share the pain
No, no, no
Now maybe I didnt mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
No maybe some would say youre left with what you had
But you couldnt share the pain
I said times have changed your friends
They come and watch you crumble to the ground
They watch you suffer
Yeah they hold you down
Hold you down
Maybe brother maybe love I didnt mean to treat you bad
But you left me far behind
Left me far behind
Left me far behind

Im Gonna Be Alright
Its funny cause for a while
I walked around with a smile
But deep inside I could hear voices telling me this aint right
Dont you know its not for you
I always knew what I had to do
But its hard to get away
Because I love you
I just tried to stay
I used to say I couldnt do it
But I did it
After telling everybody that I wasnt with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes
I can feel it
And I know inside Im gonna be alright
I said I couldnt do it
But I did it
After telling everybody that I wasnt with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes
I can feel it
And that voice inside says Im gonna be alright
Friends of mine say to me
They say you got control over me
Youre not alone
I played a part
I saw the way you were from the start
Could I expect so much from you
You had a girl when I first met you
Did the best that you could do
Now I realize that I cant change you
I used to say I couldnt do it
But I did it
After telling everybody that I wasnt with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes
I can feel it
And I know inside Im gonna be alright
I said I couldnt do it
But I did it
After telling everybody that I wasnt with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes
I can feel it
And that voice inside says Im gonna be alright
Said I wouldnt walk away
Somedays I want to stay
But leaving you is what I need to do to be okay
Never thought it would be true
Me livin without you
But now its time for me to make a move
I used to say I couldnt do it
But I did it
After telling everybody that I wasnt with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes
I can feel it
And I know inside Im gonna be alright
I said I couldnt do it
But I did it
After telling everybody that I wasnt with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes
I can feel it
And that voice inside says Im gonna be alright

Failure
Maybe i, I didnt seem to have a thing left to say
I bottled it far away
Maybe i, I tried too hard to find someone to blame
Maybe its me who changed
And now, Im left with nothing again
So what if I lost everything
Would you want me if I was a failure
So what if I lost everything
Would you be there even when I am gone
Maybe i, I didnt seem to give everything away
Not because I needed you to stay, and i
I couldnt face the fears I left far behind
I try to answer every question to why
Im left with nothing again
So what if I lost everything
Would you want me if I was a failure
So what if I lost everything
Would you be there even when I am gone
Maybe you couldnt see
All the pain inside of me
And now I feel like this was all for nothing
cause Im left with nothing, Im left with nothing again
So what if I lost everything
Would you want me if I was a failure
So what if I lost everything
Would you want me if I was a failure
So what if I lost everything
Would you be there even when I am gone
So what if I lost everything
Would you want me if I was a failure

Dont Say Goodnight, Say Good Morning
Thought we could make it on our own
Looks like we didnt get too far
Love has found its way back home
Guess time just couldnt change
The way we are
That old feeling comes so easy
When your bodys close to mine
I think our crazy hearts have finally made their
Always one more time
Chorus:
Dont say good night, say good morning
We can make it this time if we try
Dont say good night, say good morning
And in the morning
Never say goodbye
The nights ours and were alone
I know Ive wasted too much time
Chasing rainbos that I could never run out
Ive come back to make you mine
Dont let the morning come too early
Dont leave me here to face the day
Take me in your arms and never let me go
And dont let the feelings slip away
Repeat chorus x2

I Would Do For You
I didnt mean to be so late
Its just that I got talking
I had a drink with a couple of mates
Missed my bus and wound up walking
I tried to call and let you know
It was busy and I couldnt get through
I didnt want to let you down
I know how much it hurts you
I dont know what came over me
It must have slipped my mind
Ill try and make it up to you
Lets leave the past behind
I promise that Ill do my best
To mend my wicked ways
And dont believe the things you hear
Dont listen to what they say
(chorus)
I would do for you
All youd have me do
All you have to do
Is ask me to
All you have to do
Is tell me when
And Ill come running back again
If theres something wrong then let me know
Dont bottle things inside
Your pretty eyes can melt my heart
Your sadness they cant hide
Please try and give me one more chance
To set the record straight
Meet me here tomorrow night
And I promise I wont be late
(chorus)
I would do for you.......(etc)

You Had Your Chance
Well its been a while
Since I looked into your eyes
Never dreamed Id see you tonight
And its interesting that i
Just dont feel a thing
For the so called love of my life
We used to be close
(but you didnt love me)
We used to be best friends
(but you never really cared)
I let you into my soul
(didnt know you couldnt be trusted)
It took me so long to forget
(all the little things we shared)
And now you want me back again
After my heartache and suffering
I was your fool
But thats all in the past
So sorry boy, but you had your chance
See, I spent so many sleepless nights
Trying to block you from my mind
I was so convinced
Id die without you once upon a time
Now my eyes are open and I can see
You were devious and shady
Only trifling with me
We used to be close
(but you didnt love me)
We used to be best friends
(but you never really cared)
I let you into my soul
(didnt know you couldnt be trusted)
It took me so long to forget
(all the little things we shared)
And now you want me back again
After my heartache and suffering
I was your fool
But thats all in the past
So sorry boy, but you had your chance
Where were you when I needed you most
Wouldve done anything to hold you close
Wouldve given the world to be back in your arms
But you left me so torn apart
And now you want me back again
After my heartache and suffering
I was your fool
But thats all in the past
So sorry boy, but you had your chance

When Theres No Tomorrow
Didnt want to face a long hot summer
Didnt want to spend another lonely night
Didnt want to stay until I met you
You could tell that we were made for each other
Something in the air and the time was right
Came into my life, oh, I cant forget you
I dont want to leave tomorrow
Yes I said it all inside of a letter
That I put in your hand when we walked in the sand
Dont you understand
I dont want to go where theres no tomorrow
You go your way, Ill go mine
Each one missing what they left behind
I dont wanna go where theres no tomorrow
Help me try to make a dream come true
I dont wanna leave if I cant be with you
Wouldnt ever change a thing for a minute
Seems the waters always deeper when youre in it
Thats the way it goes
Not the way I planned it
I dont want to leave without you
I dont want to go if you wont follow
Told you once, tell you once again
I dont want this summer to ever end
Gonna be there when I can

Maggie May
Wake up, maggie, I think I got some-thing to say to you:
Its late september and I really should be back at school.
I know I keep you amused, but I feel Im being used.
Oh, maggie, I couldnt have tried any more.
You lured me away from home, just to save you from being alone.
You stole my heart and thats what really hurts.
The morning sun, when its in your face really shows your age.
But that dont worry me none; in my eyes youre everything.
I laughed at all of your jokes, my love you didnt need to coax,
Oh, maggie I couldnt have tried any more.
You lured me away from home, just to save you from being alone.
You stole my soul thats a pain I can do without.
All I need was a friend to lend a guiding hand.
But you turned into a lover and mother what a lover your wore me out.
All you did was wreck my bed, and in the morning kick me in the head,
Oh, maggie I couldnt have tried any more.
You lured me away from home, cause you didnt want to be alone.
You stole my heart I couldnt leave you if I tried.
I suppose I could collect my books and get back to school.
Or steal my daddys cue and make a living out of playing pool.
Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helping hand,
Oh, maggie, I wish Id never seen your face.
You made a first class fool out of me,
But Im as blind as a fool can be.
You stole my heart, but I love you anyway.
Maggie, I wish I never seen your face.
Ill get on back home one of these days.

The Union
i wait around for the still small center
from saint to sinner
well which one is it
just who do you think you are
(who do you think you are)
well who did you come to meet here?
is it who i think it is?
i swear to god im gonna kill him
well is it who i think it is?
i always knew it was on purpose
well whats the point if it dont serve its purpose
split up to focus your eyes couldnt swell
your made from distractions so brilliantly dull
well i had a better friend in my worst aqquaintces
than i ever had in either one of you
i never made a scene
well they came to me
i never made a scene (didnt have to)
well they came to me
i didnt have to i didnt have to
well i never made a scene
i didnt have to i didnt have to
i never made a scene...
i always knew to avoid the issue
got me alone so i could adress you
home is where you make it, love
dont get yourself confused
besides whats it to you?
trade in my conscience for your
for your confidence
attack my lungs with laughs to pass the time
make space for a brand new routine

Of Course Im Alright
Written by billy kirsch
Why do you ask of course Im alright
I guess I wasnt thinking Id run into you tonight
Do I seem surprised, I guess you caught me off guard
Yes Im really doing fine, no it hasnt been that hard
How bout you, getting on with your life
Theres so much to tell you, that I wont even try
My, its good to see you, how long has it been
I must admit I think about you every now and then
Like when I open my eyes, when I lay down at night
Every moment ever since the day you said goodbye
But youll never know cause I keep it inside
How am I doing without you, of course Im alright
Well to tell you the truth, I guess I have felt better
God just look at you, wow
You make it look so easy, I can see it on yout face
Everything we used to be is gone without a trace
If you wanna know, right now Im sinking fast
Girl you always could see right behind this mask
But I wont give it away, gonna keep it inside
How am I doing without you, of course Im alright
If you dont want to know the truth, of course Im alright

Go Go Round
Alone upon the sidewalks of despair
twas there she wandered
With her suitcase in her hand
Her fate she pondered
Only a go-go girl in love with someone who didnt care
She met him on a night so rare when her friends were there
And the band was groovin
When he gave a glance that said how much he would like to meet her
How was she to know at the time
He would mistreat her
In her case she danced for him although a hundred eyes were turned her way
And before the set was through he knew
She would be his loved one
Only a go-go girl in love with someone who didnt care
Only twenty-one, she was a young girl just in from somewhere
Hes playin up in michigan with a group they call the intended
With a kiss, and a promise, he was gone
The song was ended
But as she walks, she waits for him the pavement is a shoulder for her tears
But in her heart she knows there is no way
She can hope to change him
Only a go-go girl in love with someone who didnt care
Only twenty-one, she was a young girl just in from somewhere
Only a go-go girl in love with someone who didnt care
A go-go girl in love

Think About Me
Written by christine mcvie.
All it took was a special look
And I felt I knew you before
Didnt mean to love you
Didnt think it would work out
But I knew we would be together
And I couldnt wait for more
But what can they say
Its not against the law
I dont hold you down
Maybe thats why youre around
But if Im the one you love
Think about me.
I believe that you really want me
But its not easy, just to give in
So let yourself go, and let love begin.

Deep Inside Of You
When we met light was shed
Thoughts free flow you said youve got something
Deep inside of you
A wind chime voice sound sway of your hips round rings true
Echos deep inside of you
These secret garden beams changed my life so it seems
Fall breeze blows outside I dont bring stride
My thoughts are warm and they go deep inside of you
Oh yeah
And I never felt alone
Alright alone alone
Till I met you
Friends say Ive changed
I dont listen cause I live to be
Deep inside of you
Slide of her dress shouts in darkness
Im so alive im
Deep inside of you
You said boy make girl feel good
But still deep inside still
Ive never felt alone
Till I met you
Im alright on my own
Till I met you
And Id know what to do if I just knew whats coming
I would change myself if I could
Id walk with my own people if I could find them
And I would say that Im sorry to you
Im sorry to you but I dont want to call you
But then I want to call you cause I dont want to crush you
But I feel like crushing you and its true
I took for granted you were with me
I breath by your looks and you look right through me
But we were broken and didnt know it
But we were broken and didnt know it
But we were broken and didnt know it
But we were broken and didnt know it
Right oh whats right
Somethings gone you withdraw and Im not strong like before I was
Deep inside of you
I can go nowhere I burn candles and stare at a ghost
Deep inside of you
And some great need in me starts to bled
Ive lost my self theres nothing left its all gone
Deep inside of you
Deep inside of you

Wish I Didnt Know Now
(toby keith)
I never ask you where your goin,
I never ask you where youve been
Ive never called and checked your story,
When you stayed out with all your friends
Ive never tried to catch you lyin,
I didnt want to know the truth
Id rather go on lovin blind girl,
Than go on lovin without you
I wish I didnt know now what I didnt know then
I wish I could start this whole thing over again
Im not sayin its you,
You could never be true
I just dont wanna know how it ends
Youd still have my heart in the palm of your hands
Id still look like a fool in front of your friends
Yeah, I wish somehow I didnt know now what I didnt know then
Ive always said what I dont know
Couldnt hurt as bad as leavin you
Turns out I knew what I was thinkin,
It aint an easy thing to do,
Well I guess I should be goin
I sure found out too much to stay,
Please dont say your sorry
I might wait another day
I wish I didnt know now what I didnt know then
I wish I could start this whole thing over again
Im not sayin its you,
You could never be true
I just dont wanna know how it ends
Youd still have my heart in the palm of your hands
Id still look like a fool in front of your friends
Yeah, I wish somehow I didnt know now what I didnt know then
Youd still have my heart in the palm of your hand
Id still look like a fool in front of your friends

Didnt We Almost Have It All
Remember when we held on in the rain
The night we almost lost it
Once again we can take the night into tomorrow
Living on feelings
Touching you I feel it all again
Chorus:
Didnt we almost have it all
When love was all we had worth giving?
The ride with you was worth the fall my friend
Loving you makes life worth living
Didnt we almost have it all
The night we held on till the morning
You know youll never love that way again
Didnt we almost have it all
The way you used to touch me felt so fine
We kept our hearts together down the line
A moment in the soul can last forever
Comfort and keep us
Help me bring the feeling back again
Chorus
Didnt we have the beat of times
When love was young and new?
Couldnt we reach inside and find
The world of me and you?
Well never lose it again
Cause once you know what love is
You never let it end

Mandolin Wind
(rod stewart)
When the rain came I thought youd leave
cause I knew how much you loved the sun
But you chose to stay, stay and keep me warm
Through the darkest nights Ive ever known
If the mandolin wind couldnt change a thing
Then I know I love ya
Oh the snow fell without a break
Buffalo died in the frozen fields you know
Through the coldest winter in almost fourteen years
I couldnt believe you kept a smile
Now I can rest assured knowing that weve seen the worst
And I know I love ya
Oh I never was good with romantic words
So the next few lines come really hard
Dont have much but what Ive got is yours
Except of course my steel guitar
Ha, cause I know you dont play
But Ill teach you one day
Because I love ya
I recall the night we knelt and prayed
Noticing your face was thin and pale
I found it hard to hide my tears
I felt ashamed I felt Id let you down
No mandolin wind couldnt change a thing
Couldnt change a thing no, no
The coldest winter in almost fourteen years
Could never, never change your mind
And I love ya
Yes indeed and I love ya
And I love ya
Lordy I love ya

Didnt I?

Didnt I give you midnight?
Didnt I give you the month of june
Didnt I make it alright
When everything was ruined
Didnt I say didnt i
Didnt you say didnt I too
Didnt we both say didnt i
till didnt we say were through
Didnt I try, didnt I cry
Didnt i?
Sorry that your mother dropped you on your head
Maybe her mother dropped her too
In the end we all get dropped
We all get black and blue
But didnt I always love you long
When time was short and the night was cold
Didnt I admit that I was wrong
When the anger was new but the fight was old
Didnt I say didnt i
till didnt we say were through
Didnt I try, didnt I cry
Didnt i, didnt i,
Didnt I do?

She Didnt Say Yes
She didnt say yes
She didnt say no
She didnt say stay
She didnt say go
She only knew that he had spied her there
And then she knew he sat beside her there
At first there was heard not one little word
Then coyly she took one sly little look
And something awoke and smiled inside
Her heart began beating wild inside
So what did she do?
I leave it to you
She did just what youd do too
She didnt say yes
She didnt say no
They very soon stood beside his chateau
They lingered like two poor waifs outside
For well she knew 'twas only safe outside
In there it was warm, out there it was cold
The sleet and the storm said, better be bold
She murmured, Im not afraid of ice,
I only wish that I was made of ice
So what did she do?
I leave it to you
She did just what youd do too
She didnt say yes
She didnt say no
She wanted to stay
But knew she should go
She wasnt so sure that hed be good
She wasnt even sure that shed be good
She wanted to rest
All cuddled and pressed
A palpable part of somebodys heart
Shed love to be on rapport with him
But not behind a bolted door with him
And what did she do?
I leave it to you
She did just what youd do too
She didnt say yes
She didnt say no
For heaven was near
She wanted it so
Above her sweet love was beckoning
And yet she knew thered be a reckoning
She wanted to climb
But dreaded to fall
So bided her time
And clung to the wall
She wanted to act ad libitum
But feared to lose her equilibrium
So what did she do?
I leave it to you
She did just what youd do too
