Still Life

Theres a picture in the hall, I know
And its from a time when feelings showed
Though I hold it close before my eyes
My heart refuses to see
Loving you could have been, oh so easy
But there is something you dont understand
Through the times when two were one completely
There was another in this well laid plan
This corridor seems to stretch for years ahead
But patient hearts cannot match times steady tread
Is this the threshold of a fantasy?
Is there still life at all?
Loving you could have been, oh so easy
But there is something you dont understand
Through the times when two were one completely
There was another in this well laid plan
Best laid plan of ours
Watering the garden, some comfort for the twilight years
Still, life never lingers, it marches past our veil of tears
A moments all weve got, to have and to hold
Dont slip, dont blink, dont turn your head
With a photographic memory
I could live in a time that used to be
Is this the threshold of a fantasy?
Is there still life at all?
Loving you could have been, oh so easy
But there is something you dont understand
Through the times when I was won completely
There was another in this well laid plan
Loving you could have been, oh so easy
But there is something you dont understand
There was a time when I was won completely
Our emotions they got out of hand

Its Not Easy

(charley foskett)
Producer for bonnie: charley foskett
Recorded in 1986 for the charity album its a live-in world, part of the anti-heroin project. lyrics taken from careful listening.
I dont question the light that shines from your window
And I dont want to hear what the people might say
The think its only lust, thats hidden in your shadow
But I know different, and thats okay
Theyve been abused and theyre so confused
Its no wonder, theyll take what the can and run
They spend their life in the doorway
The doorway of a lifetime
And their aching arms give no reprise
cause they dont understand
Its not easy
Never has, or ever will be
Take this loving from me, and you will break my heart
Its not easy
Never has, or ever will be
Take this loving from me, and you will break my heart
Maybe the day will come
When the streets aint full of everyone
Just trying to hang on to what the can
And you might find when you wake up
The break of dawn has come
And all the sisters of sin are awaiting you
Theyre waiting to wrap their empty shells
Around your warm, warm and loving heart
And to clutch at your breast with a hand of ice
So pray the winds of change
And dont let them bring you down
To that no good, no good, cheap-talking crowd
cause they dont understand
Its not easy
Never has, or ever will be
Take this loving from me, and you will break my heart
Its not easy
Never has, or ever will be
Take this loving from me, and you will break my heart
Its not easy
Never has, or ever will be
Take this loving from me, and you will break my heart
Its not easy
Never has, or ever will be
Take this loving from me, and you will break my heart...fade

I Dont Fall In Love So Easy

(written by rodney crowell)
I dont fall in love so easy
I dont even know how it feels
I dont fall in love so easy
I dont even know if its real
Too strong dont mean its for long
Too deep dont mean its for keeps
Fast doesnt last
I dont fall in love so easy
But Im fallin in love with you
I dont give my heart to just anyone
I dont even know how to do it
I dont give my hand to just any man
I dont wanna put myself through it
I dont want what I dont want
I cant feel what I dont feel
Its sad but its true
I dont fall in love so easy
But Im fallin in love with you
I used to pray someday to change
But I found new ways to stay the same
Until you came
I dont fall in love so easy
I dont even know where to start
I dont fall in love so easy
I dont understand my own heart
Its so hard to drop my guard
I dont know how to just let go
But what else can I do
I dont fall in love so easy
But Im fallin in love with you
Im fallin in love with you
Yes, Im fallin in love with you

It Dont Come Easy

(it dont come easy, you know it dont come easy)
(it dont come easy, you know it dont come easy)
Got to pay your dues if you want to sing the blues
And you know it dont come easy
You dont have to shout or leap about
You can even play them easy
Forget about the past and all your sorrow
The future wont last
It will soon be your tomorrow
I dont ask for much, I only want your trust
And you know it dont come easy
And this love of mine keeps growing all the time
And you know it dont come easy
Open up your heart, lets come together
Use a little luck, and we will make it work out better
Got to pay your dues if you want to sing the blues
And you know it dont come easy
You dont have to shout or leap about
You can even play them easy
Please remember peace is how we make it
Here withing your reach, is your freedom to take it
I dont ask for much, I only want your trust
And you know it dont come easy
(de de de) growing all the time
And you know it dont come easy
(thank you)

Dont Close Your Eyes, Tonight

This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the dreamland express album, and has also been released on the the country roads collection album.
Theres a tenderness that I feel, its very real you see
I can feel your body stir so deep within
Let it be an out of love tonight completely
And let me ask of you one thing
Dont close your eyes tonight
Just look at me and see how many times I cried for you
Dont close your eyes tonight
Let it be me, not just a fantasy
Let it be me tonight
Well you can lie so close to someone and still feel alone
And though I heard you say you loved me so many times
While you give me love so beautiful and tender
Someone else is in your mind
Dont close your eyes tonight
Just look at me and see how many times I cried for you
Dont close your eyes tonight
Let it be me, not just a fantasy
Let it be me tonight
Sorry if I cry - feelings run so deep
Many is a time when Ill wake up and find
That Im crying in my sleep
Look me in the eye, tell me what you see
Im the one who loves you, Im the one who needs you
Make this one for me
Dont close youe eyes tonight
Just look at me and see how many times I cried for you
Dont close your eyes tonight
Let it be me, not just a fantasy
Let it be me tonight

Dont You Want Me

You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
When I met you
I picked you out, I shook you up, and turned you around
Turned you into someone new
Now five years later on youve got the world at your feet
Success has been so easy for you
But dont forget its me who put you where you are now
And I can put you back down too
Dont, dont you want me?
You know I cant believe it when I hear that you wont see me
Dont, dont you want me?
You know I dont believe you when you say that you dont need me
Its much too late to find
You think youve changed your mind
Youd better change it back or we will both be sorry
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
That much is true
But even then I knew Id find a much better place
Either with or without you
The five years we have had have been such good times
I still love you
But now I think its time I lived my life on my own
I guess its just what I must do
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh

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?
(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?

Loving You Aint Easy

(saker/leathwood/sulsh)
Loving you, loving you aint easy
But I dont mind if I can stay here by your side
Every lonely road you walk along
Ill be there too
Just say the word love
And I would follow you
Every lonely road you walk along
Id walk along with you
If only you would show me that you care
Loving you, loving you aint easy
But I keep the pain inside and try to take it in my stride
Loving you, loving you aint easy
But I dont mind if I can stay here by your side
Wont you stop and take a look at me
Tell me what you see
Someone whos always there when everything goes wrong
Wont you stop and take a look at me
Must I always be
The kind of fool that you keep hanging on
Loving you, loving you aint easy
But I keep the pain inside and try to take it in my stride
Loving you, loving you aint easy
But I dont mind if I can stay here by your side
Theres been so many times Ive cried
But you wont know it
Cause baby I dont show it
Ooohh
Loving you aint easy
But I keep the pain inside and try to take it in my stride
Loving you, loving you aint easy
But I dont mind if I can stay here by your side

On Betrayal

we often feel as if we've been betrayed...
and we're hurt, angry, scarred, and vindictive...
but the truth is we lead lives of betrayal.
times we fail others, times we fail ourselves.
times when we mean to do the right thing,
and dont follow through.
times we excuse ourselves by
saying we're following our heart.
times we turn away,
and blame it on circumstance.
times we dont dare to do what life demands.
times we choose indifference,
times we think we've already given enough.
times we choose the easy way out.
times we are not grateful...
times we dont forgive but expect forgiveness.
times we dont speak what our heart feels,
until it's too late....

You Dont Understand Me

Ive been up all night, youve been puttin up a fight.
Seems like nothin I say gets through.
How did this old bed fit a world between me and you.
We said goodnight but the silence was so thick
You could cut it with a knife.
Weve hit the wall again and theres nothin I can do.
Youre the one, yea, Ive put all my trust in your hands.
Cmon and look in my eyes, here I am, here I am
You dont understand me, my baby.
You dont seem to know that I need you so much.
You dont understand me, my feelings,
The reason Im breathin, my love
The mornin comes and youre reaching out for me
Just like everythings the same
And I let myself believe things are gonna change.
When you kiss my mouth and you hold my body close,
Do you wonder whos inside?
Maybe theres no way we could feel each others pain.
Tell me why it gets harder to know where I stand.
I guess loneliness found a new friend, here I am
You dont understand me...
You dont seem to get me, my baby.
You dont really see that I live for your touch.
You dont understand me, my dreams or the things I believe in, my love.
You dont understand me. you dont understand me. understand me.

Strange Voodoo

How can I love you boy when you dont even love yourself?
Im useless now as I have always been
Just like some worthless love song dying on the radio
We talk in circles til we dont know what we mean
No happy ever after, no big dark man
Aint no perfect situation, cant you understand
Loving you is some strange voodoo
Loving you is some strange voodoo
How can I help you boy when I can barely help myself?
Im useless now as I have always been
Your lying eyes, your thieving hands, youre such a rogue at times
But you will always be a part of me
No happy ever after, no big dark man
Aint no perfect situation, aint no master plan
Loving you is some strange voodoo
Loving you I keep loving you yes I do
Loving you is some strange voodoo
Loving you is some strange voodoo
No happy ever after, no big dark man, no
Aint no perfect situation, cant you understand
Loving you is some strange voodoo
Loving you I keep loving you yes I do
Loving you is some strange voodoo
Loving you is some strange voodoo
Loving you
Loving you

If You Dont Know Me By Now

If you dont know me by now
You will never never never know me
All the things that weve been through
You should understand me like I understand you
Now girl I know the difference between right and wrong
I aint gonna do nothing to break up our happy home
Oh dont get so excited when I come home a little late at night
Cos we only act like children when we argue fuss and fight
If you dont know me by now (if you dont know me)
You will never never never know me (no you wont)
If you dont know me by now
You will never never never know me
Weve all got our own funny moods
Ive got mine, woman youve got yours too
Just trust in me like I trust in you
As long as weve been together it should be so easy to do
Just get yourself together or we might as well say goodbye
What good is a love affair when you cant see eye to eye, oh
If you dont know me by now (if you dont know me)
You will never never never know me (no you wont)
If you dont know me by now (you will never never never know me)
You will never never never know me (ooh)

I Dont Want Your Love

I, dont mind, if youre keeping someone else behind,
I, dont care, cuz youve got something I can share,
Hey, take your chance, even if its only -
Only while were dancing in the light, of your second sight
Because when you understand me you might feel good around me now.
I dont want your love to bring me down.
I dont want your love so turn it around.
I, wont turn you out, if youve got someone else -
Someone else you care about, because you, must realize,
My obsessive fascination is in your imagination (now pick it up)...
I dont want your love to bring me down
I dont want your love so turn it around
(I dont what your love, I dont what your love)
Your rythym is the power - to move me
Its something you control - completely,
I dont want your love,
I dont want your love.
(I dont what your love)
-
I, like noise, cuz I like waking up the house
I cannot sit down, I cant shut my mouth,
But when you understand me,
You might feel good around me (now back it up)...
(chorus) (chorus)
I dont want your love.
(I dont what your love)
I dont want your love.
(I dont what your love)
I dont want your love to bring me down..
(I dont what your love)

Dangerous Times

(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
These are dangerous times
Nothing to care or die for
These are dangerous times
What you want, someone will buy for you
Dont get away
Its so easy to wait
Youve been wearing the green
Ive been wearing the fall
And you said that all was just agreed
(chorus)
Dont get away
Dont get away
I saw a guy out on the street
Said, I know what you need, boy
I can set you fine
I didnt buy his line, because
These are dangerous times
I dont want to get old
You say that everythings fine
Then you leave me standing in the cold
(repeat chorus)
Its so easy to fall
Youve been trying to gain
Ive been trying to stop
But its catching up with me again
(repeat chorus)
These are dangerous times
Its a dangerous time
Dont get away (its a dangerous time)
Dont get away (its a dangerous time)
Dont get away (its a dangerous time)

Prove It To You One More Time Again

Nobodys blamin you.
Dont get me wrong.
I know so many things you done for me.
But you got your life that you gotta live
And Ill get along.
I just wonder who you wanted me to be.
And I just cant believe that you still dont believe in me
Or hold a clue to who I am.
I just hope to God that I still got the heart to take it
And prove it to you one more time again.
So many lies weve told so many times
Maybe its too late to make it love again
If we got a choice then we gotta chance
We gotta try
And do the story true right to the end.
And I cant believe that you still dont believe in me
And you still dont understand me
I just hope to God that I still got the heart to take it
And prove it to you one more time again.

Weird

I like the way you never sleep
And the promises you never keep
I like the way you say hello
And make it sound like time to go
I like the scar above your lip
The way you let your feelings slip
But they are never what you feel
Oh so fake but completely real
Dont you think its weird
Weirder then weird
Thats what you are
Thats what you are to be
What I like about you
Is what you like about me
Dont you think its weird
I like the rules that multiply
And make the good things
Pass you by
Standing here without a plan
Thats why your such a happy man
Dont you think its weird
Weirder then weird
Thats what you are
Thats what you are to be
What I like about you
Is what you like about me
Dont you think its 1,2
I wanna make some changes
I want my money back
I wanna start up with you
I wanna talk to strangers
I wanna be with you
But I just dont know
Where or When
Thats what you are
Thats what you are to be
What I like about you
Is what you like about me
Dont you think its weird
Weirder then weird
Thats what you are
Thats what you are to be
What I like about you
Is what you like about me
Dont you think its weird

How Can It Hurt

(music: marillion lyrics: steve hogarth)
Maybe youre just too upset inside to give it to me straight
Maybe youve become too angry and too close to crying to say anything I can understand
Or maybe youre just coming in over my head
Maybe youre just too upset inside too upset inside
How can it hurt if I dont understand
How can it hurt if I dont understand
How can it hurt if I dont understand
How can it hurt if I dont understand
Youre never gonna square with me I know so what is there to say?
Theres a million words that we could share tonight
Why do you walk away?
And I could write you off and its over with like a damaged car I cant afford to fix
But everything inside me wants to heal your pain
You wont explain
You wont explain
How can it hurt if I dont understand
How can it hurt if I dont understand
How can it hurt if I dont understand
How can it hurt if I dont understand
How can it hurt, how can it hurt
Well I dont understand
Well I dont understand
Tell me how can it hurt
Well I dont understand
Tell me how can it hurt
Well I dont understand

Crimson Love

~~~This Is A Personal Poem That Shows My Emotions Clearly, And Not Through A Shadowed Glass Of Interpretations Like My Other Musical Poems.~~~

Do you want to know what my problem is?
I'll tell you what my problem is…
I Love You. I love your name, I love your gorgeous smile,
I love the way you walk, I love your beautiful eyes,
I love the sound of your laugh, i love the way you get mad,
i love the way i dont understand you at all.
I love the way I can be having the worst day of my life and seeing you completely changes my mood.
I love how when you touch me I get weak,
I Love How I always think of you,
I Love how you talk, I Love your laugh,
I Love how you understand me,
I love how you will always be by my side,
I Love how you are your own character,
I love that you will never change,
I love how you look,
I Love how i fall in Love with you every day, over and over again;
I Love talking to you, I love being with You,
I Love how You are and what You can be;
I love the way you look at me,
I love Your hugs and kisses; I love your touch;
I Love how i miss you,
and I Love how I care so much,
I Love how your the only one i see,
I love that your the only one for me
I love how your always in my head,
I love the way you listen,
and I Love it when your happy,
and I Love the way You seem to know,
I even Love it when You dont,
I Love the time I waste with you,
I love all the times i look at You,
I Love how you're in my Dreams,
I Love the times you thought of me,
I love your eyes, your teeth,
your smile, your lips, your nose, your face,
and everything below;
(Thats My Problem, But I Dont want a Cure...)
But Most Of All, I Love You For You :)
I wish I could Love You more,
but impossible isnt a place i can get to alone

It Dont Matter

(tommy lee james)
Weve got a nice little house on a quiet little street
But it dont matter
A two garage with a new cherokee
But it dont matter
Chorus:
Cause we dont ever seem to talk anymore
And you dont hold me like you did before
Weve got everything we wanted and more
But now I know and now I see
Nothing matters if you dont love me
Weve given twelve precious years of our lives
But it dont matter
And I guess for awhile we were both satisfied
But it dont matter
It wouldnt be easy to walk out tonight
But it dont matter
And I know I would miss you if you said goodbye
But it dont matter

Some Peace Of Mind

You see me on the street, well you guess Im doing fine
Oh but its fantasy baby, almost all the time
Ive got to get away, by myself
Oh the way its going, soon be needing help
'cause Im just a man, doing the best I can
Dont you understand, I just want some peace of mind
You see me on the stage, doing my job
I learn to do it well, keep on singing the song
But sometimes it gets, so lonely out there
When youre on the road and youre going nowhere
Because Im just a man, oh I aint got no plans
Dont you understand, Im just trying to find some peace of mind
I have to stand in line, baby when Im in queue
I got to do it all, just the same as you
Got my doubts about it, oh but I try
Oh make it work with tears in my eyes
Because Im just a man, only trying to do the best I can
Dont you understand, I want some peace of mind
Oh Im just a man, baby I aint got no plan
Oh dont you understand, got to get some peace of mind
Oh got to get, got to get some peace of mind
Oh got to get, got to get some peace of mind
Got to get, got to get some peace of mind
Got to, got to, got to get, got to get, get some peace of mind
Got to get, got to get, get some peace of mind
Get me some, get me some, get me some, get me some peace of mind
Get me some, get me some, peace of mind
Get me some baby, get me some peace of mind.

Just Something Someone Writen To Me :)

Hey im sorry i havent been on lately, but to make it up to you heres a late birthday present :) (3

She bought a ticket to nowhere
And she told me that shes sick of this life
She said dont worry its alright
Cause she doesnt want to see me cry
Oh i wish that she could see
How beautiful she is to me

Oh baby baby hold on
Oh please dont let go
Baby baby be strong
So much you dont know
Life is crazy sometimes
I know its not easy but
Baby baby hold on

I wiped the tears from her face
Shes forgotten how her used smile feels
She holds my hand and she whispers
Tell me Why you love a loser like me
Oh i wish that she could see
How beautiful she is to me
