Ill Tell You Now
Written by lindsey buckingham.
I stayed at home today,
Didnt have a lot to say,
I guess you must wonder why,
Ill tell you,
Tell you now.
I felt the same today,
The same as always,
I guess you must wonder why,
Ill tell you,
Tell you now.
I need someone today,
Someone who can take my place,
I guess you must wonder why,
Ill tell you,
Tell you now.

Save Me A Place
Written by lindsey buckingham
Dont know why I have to work
Dont know why I cant play
Turn me off turn me out
But dont turn me away
Save me a place
Ill come running if you love me today
Dont know why I have to go
Dont know why I cant stay
Guess I want to be alone
And I guess I need to be amazed
Save me a place
Ill come running if you love me today
Ill come running if you love me today.

Newsflash
Guess what's on the news today
another young life wasted away
boy,16, shot in the chest
should everyone walk around in a bullet-proof vest?
Guess what's on the news today
another young life wasted away
girl,14, stabbed in the heart
teen death rates soaring off the charts
Guess what's on the news today
more lives have been wasted away
2 boys in their teens
unfulfilled, broken dreams
Guess whats on the news today
more and more people just turn away
hiding their faces from any spot of light
we all live in darkness, we all live with fright

Jennifer Lost The War
Jennifer lost the war today
You'll find her burned and raped
Through it all
She must have wondered
What have I done
But nobody really cares today
The world's a busy place
Guess she must have really sinned
CHORUS:
I guess we're all just soldiers
She was only six years old
Left to die by strangers
Her family waits
And if we're all just soldiers
Is it so wrong to be afraid
Phoebe lost the war today
There must be some mistake
Say it happens all the time
And it's said and done
And Little Miss 1565 Your soul remains unclaimed
Guess you must have really sinned
Morality won't help her
When she lies silent in a morgue
And all our sorrows just don't count at all
But will the morning headlines
Even say that it's a shame
What are we headin' for
Seen it all before
Silent on the ground
As he's walking away
And I wonder how many more
Everybody takes it
Like it's nothing at all
Jennifer lost the war
CHORUS

Heavy Weather
(michael sembello)
In the news today
Heavy weather
Oh, I can remember
The skies were so blue
That lucky old moon I promised to you
Now its gone lately
Somethings happening
I dont understand
Oh, how come decembers
Are hotter that june?
And how come the flowers
Dont know when to bloom?
Somethings wrong, people
Somethings happening
Happening where we live
The rising smoke against an endless sea of cars
As mother nature gets another senseless scar
In the news today
I guess were in for heavy weather
In the world today
Were heading for some heavy weather
The rain is falling harder each day
The faces keep changing
But the problem remains
Somethings wrong, people
Right before our eyes
Weve been hypnotized
The sound of silence
Broken by the sound of war
How can we heal
If we keep opening up the sore?
In the news today
I guess were in for heavy weather
In the world today
Were heading for some heavy weather
Will we ever hear the message?
Read the signs?
Stop all this talking now
Its time to save our lives
In the news today
I guess were in for heavy weather
In the world today
Were heading for some heavy...
The road ahead keeps leading back again
The train were on is coming to an end
Lets open up our eyes
In the world today
Were heading for some heavy weather
In the news today
I guess were in for heavy weather
In the news today
I guess were in for heavy weather

Happy birthday friend
Today a close friend will celebrate his best day
Today is not like any other day
Today is the twenty-third of may
Today he will we have plenty to play
Today is special for you and I
Today lions roar while horses neigh
People will respect as if you're their bey
Today a sculpture will be built for you from clay
This day you'll recognize that you are no longer the prey
You're the predator and everyone should pay
As for me i know you'll have mercy on your special day
Today the truth of people will be apparent never forget the lie
Today you'll be the king and every one else servants to his majesty
Some holds jugs others plates while most of them the special tray
Today what can i tell you it's a very special day
Today is simply a day never to forget
Today is your birthday
Happy birthday
Come Tomorrow
About the time Im eight years old
I met the devil, kept my soul
Walkin out on lakes of fire and Im gone
Walkin in a wonderland
And I dont really understand
The place Im comin to right now today
Chorus
Come tomorrow, you could see the light
Come tomorrow, break it right down to the place you were before
Fifteen years on down the line
I guess youd say Im doin fine
Wandering down that same old road again
Walkin in a wonderland
But alice doesnt understand
The place shes comin to right now today
Chorus
On your knees, youll be begging me please
As you feel the disease
Youre going down again tonight
See me runnin, watch me fall
I guess youd say Ive finally found my own,
See me cryin and wonder why
I guess youd say its time to die today

Stuck On You
Stuck on you
Ive got this feeling down
Deep in my soul
That I just cant lose
Guess, Im on my way
Needed a friend
And the way I feel now I guess
Ill be with you till the end
Guess Im on my way
Mighty glad you stayed
Im stuck on you
Been a fool too long I guess
Its time for me to come on home
Guess Im on my way
So hard to see
That a woman like you could wait
Around for a man like me
Guess Im on my way
Mighty glad you stayed
Oh, Im leaving on that midnight train
And I know just where Im going
Ive packed up my troubles
And Ive thrown them all away
Because this time little darlin
Im coming home to stay
Im stuck on you
Ive got this feeling down
Deep in my soul
That I just cant lose
Guess, Im on my way
Needed a friend
And the way I feel now I guess
Ill be with you till the end
Guess Im on my way
Im mighty glad you stayed

Grandpa's Lake
He was sitting by himself all alone,
Down in a little corner.
Looking out of place, in the funeral home,
And away from all the mourners.
His dad walked up, and I heard him say,
Daddy can I go home?
I don't know why grandpa went away,
But he might be home alone.
I want to be there, when he gets back,
We were going fishing today.
He'll need his hooks and rods, and that burlap sack,
Where he puts the fish away.
His dad looked up, a tear in his eye,
And said 'grandpa's fishing now.'
But it's a great big lake, up in the sky,
And you can't go there right now.
He's fishing with his dad today,
They'll be fishing for some time.
They have a lot to do and say,
Cause to that lake it's a long steep climb.
They haven't seen each other,
In oh, so many years.
And grandpa's glad to see his father,
And both their eyes have tears.
And grandpa's a little boy again,
Just a fishing with his dad.
And on his face there's no more pain,
I hope for him your'e glad.
The little boy just smiled and said,
I guess I'm happy about that.
Yes for grampa I'm very glad,
But for me, I guess I'm sad.
I wanted to go fishing, with my grampa today.
But if you can take me,
To the lake, maybe the bay,
I'll go, my time is free.
I guess I'll wait to fish with grampa,
Till I can make it to his lake.
Maybe he'll find some secret spots,
I sure hope so, for my sake.

Today...
Today, the leaves were greener
Today, the sky wasn’t grey
Today, the sun was brighter
Yes, it changed today
Today, people transformed
Today, they weren’t rude
Today, I felt loved
All just today, it’s true
Today, I lived for today
Today, was not for the future
Today, was a great day
Not menial, tiring, brutal
Today, I laughed in silence
Today didn’t make me cry
Today, everything became clearer
But, today, I couldn’t figure out why
And today, if everything changed
And today, if it wasn’t a dream
I don’t know what happened
But today will become everyday, it seems.

Borrowed Time
(olivia newton-john)
I saw the light but it was too late, too late
I wanted to fight but it was too great, too great to fight it
Guess Im loving on borrowed time
Didnt know that you could not be mine
Im the fool I guess
Im the fool I guess
I started to cry but I was cried out, cried out
Cause you opened my eyes but with the light out
I couldnt see it
Guess Im loving on borrowed time
Didnt know that you could not be mine
Im the fool I guess
Im the fool I guess
I begged you to leave her but it was too late, too late
Cause though you have deceived her
You knew that shed wait
Shed wait forever
Guess Im loving on borrowed time
Didnt know that you could not be mine
Im the fool I guess
Im the fool I guess
Guess Im loving on borrowed time
Didnt know that you could not be mine
Im the fool I guess
Im the fool I guess
Oh baby, Im the fool I guess
Oh now, Im the fool I guess

Today, the rain has stopped and the sun has returned
Today, the breath of kindness is found in words
Today, I wonder.... Today, I am a child.

The Child In Me
Dont slow me down, just drive me away
The skies are grey today, I look at life that way
So put me on a plane, I may escape the rain
My friends are acting strange, things dont look the same
I guess the child in me, defines the way I see
I guess the child in me, defines the way I see
Miracles
Dont let me down, just live for today
The price is high you say, you look at life that way
So put me on a chain, I will escape again
Living by the book I say,would drive me insane
I guess the child in me, defines the way I see
I guess the child in me, defines the way I see
Miracles come my way
Through the eyes of a child I am spinning round
Through the eyes of a child I will work it out
I guess the child in me, defines the way I see
Through the eyes of a child
Through the eyes of a child

A day of 1971
The school is three kilometers away.
Akmal was hastily walking towards the school as he was already late.
The school starts at midday.
Mother was insisting him on for long to go to the school.
But Akmal was little reluctant today.
He was experiencing something new in the whole surroundings.
His small psyche could not exactly guess what it was but something very strange was happening around him.
On his way to school Nepalda was chatting with some of his friends at a corner. Nepalda may be five to six years senior to Akmal.
Once Nepalda was Akmal’s house tutor.
Nepalda called Akmal, ‘Hey where are you going today? School? School is closed today. Don’t go’, declared he.
There was enough reason to believe Nepalda for Akmal. After all he was his teacher and he has a good reputation in the society. At least his parents consider Nepalda as a gentle young man.
When Nepalda was saying that the school is closed then he has no reason to proceed further. Yet to be sure he asked Nepalda, ‘Is it true? Our school is closed? ’
‘Yes, my boy. I am not joking with you. ’ Nepalda replied. Then he murmured, ‘Be careful. Go to home and remain in the home. Don’t come out. There may be some exchange of fire. We are ready….the army is advancing…we are ready to obstruct them…go home’.
Akmal understood nothing but he could guess that he has to return to home quickly.
It came to his mind that he did not do his home work today. So certainly he was going to be punished today if the school was open.
He was happy that the school is not open and today nobody will ask him to sit for study in the evening, he expected.

Guess Who
(gary klein / arthur kornfield)
(guess who? )
Wheres the girl who hurt herself last night?
(guess who? )
Didnt kiss you and thought she was right
Everyone had told me
Be careful when he holds me
And I was
(guess who? )
Had to listen to all that she hears
(guess who? )
Has a pillow thats all wet with tears
You were oh-so tender
But I wouldnt surrender
Now youre gone
I told my friends hell never get my heart
And when I kissed you
Had to resist you
Said better go
I hurt you so
Wished you had stayed
But I made you go away
(guess who? )
Tried to be much too cool yesterday
(guess who? )
Let the boy that she loves get away
I never should have listened
cause now your love Im missin
Its too late
Woah, its too late, ahh, ha
I never should have listened
cause now your love Im missin
Its too late
Oh, its too late
Ah, oh, ah, ah, oh
Its too late, mmm

Born Reckless
Written by John Mellencamp
Spend a lot of time tryin' to grow up
Guess I got a lot of growin' up to do
Used to tell me sit down, hey shut up
Guess they don't know what I was goin' through
But I've loved me some girls
And I've broken me some hearts
A cast in Nova in my own right
As I see here watching the sun coming up
I guess it's okay, yea its ok
To say good night
*Born reckless, born reckless
Born reckless (watch the family cry)
Cause I was born to be reckless
Till the day, I die
Well you know, I've been shoved around
Hey, but I've done my share of the shovin' too
I guess you get what you deserve
Yeah you get what's comin' to you
For the life of me, I don't understand
I don't understand, how I ever got you
Someone so warm to hold my hand
When this world has beat me back through
(*Repeat Chorus)
Well what I really want to say is
I guess I don't know, what it is I really wanna say
Anyway the thing is, I'm just surprised
That you're still here with me today
'Cause I've lied and I've cheated
And I've spit in your face
I've taken from you exactly what I need
But I want you to know
There's no one to take your place
How can we embrace love, how can we make love
At such an high rate of speed
(*Repeat Chorus)

Thespian
I met her just today
But I've seen her before
Now I sit beside her
She told me her name
I said that's my favorite song
And she said she's never heard it
She Broke my train of thought
When she told me a secret
The one about a friend now
I felt her hand upon my knee
I guess I forgot to breathe
But only for a moment
All the while I'm thinking
That I can't believe she's here with me now
I might be dreamin'
If I am don't tell me I don't want to know
She got up to get a beer
So I moved closer to her chair
And she pretended not to notice
Well I hope she doesn't leave
Cause I'd like to talk some more
Before I have to go, now...
All the while I'm thinking
That I can't believe she's here with me now
I might be dreamin'
If I am don't tell me I don't want to know
I guess my talk was just too small
I'm not getting anywhere
But I've been here before
So I'll just drive home by myself
And drift away to sleep
I guess it's no big deal...(big deal)
They finally closed the doors
So I walked her to her car
And the rain began to pour
And with a smile she said good-bye
And I watched her drive away
Well I guess I lost again, now...
All the while I'm thinking
That I can't believe she's here with me now
I might be dreamin'
If I am don't tell me I don't want to know x2
Don't tell me I dont want to know
All the while I'm thinking
That I can't believe she's here with me now
I might be dreamin'
If I am don't tell me I don't want to know x2
