Heart Cooks Brain
Slow walk
Its land mine
Its coal mine
Its a bad thought
On the way to God dont know
My brains the burger and my hearts the coal
Im trying to get my head clear
I push things out through my mouth I get refilled through my ears
Im on my way to God dont know or even care
My brains the weak heart, and my hearts the long stairs
Inland from vancouver shore
The ravens and the seagulls push each other inward and outward
Inward and outward
In this place that I call home
My brains the cliff, and my hearts the bitter buffalo
My hearts the bitter buffalo
We tore one down, and erected another there
The match of the century: absence versus thin air
On the way to God dont know
My brains the burger and my hearts the coal
On this life that we call home
The years go fast and the days go so slow

Scarecrow People
Hope you enjoyed your flight,
In one of our new straw aeroplanes,
Youll find things here are just like what youre used to.
Theres lots of waste and razor wire,
And no one gives a damn about the land,
We just stand around and stare like you folks do.
For we aint got no brains,
And we aint got no hearts,
Its just that wild old wind that tears us all apart.
Were the scarecrow people,
Have we got lots in common with you.
And if you dont start living well,
Youre all gonna wind up scarecrow people too.
Hope you enjoyed your meal,
Its only gas and chemicals,
We thought that youd prefer something not nature made.
Now while youre here can you advise us,
On a war wed like to start,
Against some scarecrows over there, a different shade?
For we aint got no brains,
And we aint got no hearts,
Its just that wild old wind that tears us all apart.
Were the scarecrow people,
Have we got lots in common with you.
And if you dont start living well,
Youre all gonna wind up scarecrow people too.
We dont have no tears here,
No one hopes or cares or fears here,
For the old, the sick, the poor and them what taint you.
We thought wed base our civilization upon yours,
cause youre the smartest animals on earth, now aint you?
We dont have no love here,
Theres no need to rise above here,
No one wants to write a book or try to paint thee.
We thought wed base our civilization upon yours,
cause were all dead from our necks up, now aint we?
And we aint got no brains,
And we aint got no hearts,
Its just that wild old wind that tears us all apart.
Were the scarecrow people,
Have we got lots in common with you.
And if you dont start living well,
Youre all gonna wind up scarecrow people too.
And I aint got no brains,
And I aint got no heart,
Its just them other humans tear my soul apart.
Im a scarecrow person,
Have I got quite some message for you.
For if we dont start learning well,
Were all gonna wind up scarecrow people too!

Heart Of Hearts
Verse
They say theres gold under the stone
They say theres fire in the ice
They say that love is crazy its true
But what can a poor man do
When hes burned by someone like you
Chorus
In your heart of hearts
Is this romance over
In your heart of hearts
Is there nothing I can do
You made a fool out of this desperate lover
In your heart of hearts
Dont push me away
In your heart of hearts
Dont you want me to stay
Verse
Days of love mean nothing to you
Night of romance and fire
What went wrong with this paradise
What turned the gold to stone
What turned the fire to ice
Chorus
In your heart of hearts
Is this romance over
In your heart of hearts
Is there nothing I can do
You made a fool out of this desperate lover
In your heart of hearts
Dont push me away
In your heart of hearts
Dont you want me to stay
Verse
You can take the fire away
But the flame burns hotter
You can take the love away
But the memorys stronger every day
Cant stop it, cant help it
Ill never forget about you

Push Me Shove Me
Motion always seemed to me
The way I ought to go
No one now gets in my way
I wont let my heartache show
The same situation
Wont bring me down no more
I get on without you now
I dont need your help for sure
Push me (push me) shove me
I dont call that love me
Call that over
There was once a time
When I would fall for all your lies
No I know the game you play
I see it clear there in your eyes
You cant cry inside me
I wont let you in my heart
I can walk out on my own
Its high time we moved apart
Push me (push me) shove me (push me)
I dont call that love me
Push me (push me) shove me (push me)
I dont call that love me
Call that over
You say talk it out
I say its all one big mistake
Cut so deep, its hard
And its the chance I have to take
I dont need to follow
I want a base love on my own
Motion or emotion
From now on thats how it goes
Push me (push me) shove me
I dont call that love me
Call that over
Push me (push me) shove me
I dont call that love me
Call that over

Wild Hearts Run Out Of Time
Roy orbison/will jennings
Youre gone again this morning.
How long will you keep running on and on.
Cant you see the warning.
I need you more than ever.
Before youre gone forever.
Please dont let your heart run out of time.
Wild hearts run out of time.
When youre up against the night.
Dont stand there all alone.
In the dying of the light.
Wild hearts run out of time.
And youll need a love like mine.
To show you hope is there.
In the sunshine of your mind.
Wild hearts run out of time.
Dont let this old world turn you.
Dont let the wild life hurt you anymore.
Dont let the bright lights burn you.
Please dont stand there crying.
Because the time is flying.
I cant let your heart run out of time.
Wild hearts run out of time.
When youre up against the night.
Dont stand there all alone.
In the dying of the light.
Wild hearts run out of time.
And youll need a love like mine.
To show you hope is there
In the sunshine of your mind.
Wild hearts run of time.
It could be yours or mine.
It happens all the time.
Wild hearts run out of time.
It could be yours or mine.
It happens all the time.
Wild hearts run out of time.
Wild hearts run out of time.

Hearts On Fire
1991. released as b-side of jesus he knows me single, 1992.
In life there are those decisions
Which direction you should take
Its only later that you realize
All those simple mistakes you make
I dont like being alone
Dont wanna be by myself
But since youve gone thats all I can think of
I cant think of nothing else
Oh, I said Im sorry, soon I give it up
You know Im sorry, soon I give it up
You know Im sorry, soon I give it up
Cos my hearts on fire
My hearts on fire
Woh can you take me there
Oh, come back and take me there
Cos I need to be with you
Be there with you
Yes there is no denying
Our love is not untrue
I know Ive lied so many times before
But deep down theres only you
I need you here by my side
Together our love could grow
But first you have to believe that I want you
More than youll ever know
Woh, I said Im sorry and I give it up (give it up)
You know Im sorry, soon I give it up (give it up)
You know Im sorry, soon I give it up (give it up)
Cos my hearts on fire
My hearts on fire
Woh can you take me there
Oh, come back and take me there
Cos I need to be with you
Be there with you
(give it up, give it up, give it up...)
With it we take our chances
What will be will be
But I dont care what the people may think
Just as long as youre here with me
Dont like being alone
Dont wanna be by myself
And since youve gone, well thats all I can think of
I cant think of nothing else
Woh, I said Im sorry and I give it up (give it up)
You know Im sorry soon I give it up (give it up)
You know Im sorry soon I give it up
Cos my hearts on fire
My hearts on fire
Woh can you take me there
Oh, come back and take me there
Cos I need to be with you
Be there with you
You, be there with you

Beat Of Love
This is for the ones
That like to party till dawn
And the beat wont stop
Till the last one drops
And the people wont stay
If the dj dont play
This if for the ones
Who like to really have fun
And the bad girls do
What the bad boys want to
And the good girls dont
And the good guys really want to
But theyre scared
Whats the world without a beat of love
I dont know but its no place of mine
And that place Ill never be
Whats the world without a beat of love
I dont know cause my hearts beating fine
Thumpin bumpin
This is for the old
And the new school too
From the beat box sands
To the hip hop waste land
From the house of blues
To the jazzy and the cool
This is for the world
Or wherever you are
On the sun or moon
Or in between those two
You are never too far
To connect with all of us
From which you stand
Whats the world without a beat of love
I dont know but its no place of mine
And that place Ill never be
Whats the world without a beat of love
I dont know cause my hearts beating fine
Thumpin bumpin
Whats the world without a beat of love
I dont know but its no place of mine
And that place Ill never be be
Whats the world without a beat of love
I dont know cause my hearts beating fine
And it beats on time
This is for the year
And the years to come
So lets celebrate
And let us elevate our fellow mankind
Its purposive love through others
Human waste
Whats the world without a beat of love
I dont know but its no place of mine
And that place Ill never be
Whats the world without a beat of love
I dont know cause my hearts beating fine
Thumpin bumpin
Whats the world without a beat of love
I dont know but its no place of mine
And that place Ill never be be
Whats the world without a beat of love
I dont know cause my hearts beating fine
And it beats on time
Whats the world without a beat of love
I dont know but its no place of mine
And that place Ill never be
Whats the world without a beat of love
I dont know cause my hearts beating fine
Thumpin bumpin
Whats the world without a beat of love

And that place Ill never be be
Whats the world without a beat of love

Hearts Fall
Edwin McCain
Hearts Fall
Pin feathers, dusty old wings
Living all my crazy never-land dreams
And I feel her trying when were apart
And I feel like dying
God dont let me break her heart
God dont let me break her heart
God dont let me break her heart
And the hearts fall in the right places
And the hearts fall in the right places
And how she loves me, I dont understand
And if time wont change me, perhaps she can
And I feel her trying when were apart
And I feel like dying
God dont let me break her heart
God dont let me break her heart
God dont let me break her heart
My selfish anger and I just run away
But a perfect heart always makes me stay
God dont let me break her heart
God dont let me break her heart
God dont let me break her heart
And the hearts fall in the right places
And the hearts fall in the right places
And the hearts fall in the right places
And the hearts fall in the right places
And the hearts fall in the right places
And the hearts fall in the right places

Much too Long!
I dont care what they say, with those rumours
I know its been much to long...
Its been much to long since Ive seen you
I wish I love would of lasted
I dont care what they say, your so long gone..
No one can take away the memories in our hearts
Yes we were much to young....... I dont care what they say..
Sometimes hearts belong...
I dream about you everyday, wondering what went wrong?
I dont care what they say, with those rumours
I know its been much to long...
I thought my heart would drift away and a new love would belong..
I dont care what they say, your so long gone..
No one can take away the memories in our hearts
Yes we were much to young....... I dont care what they say..
Sometimes hearts belong...

They Don't Make Hearts (Like They Used To)
When my grandad fell in love with my grandma
Hearts were made to last, Hearts were strong
But over the years they must have changed somehow
Look at us now - something must be wrong.
Chorus:
They dont make hearts like they used to
These days a heart aint worth a dime,
They dont make hearts like they used to
Theyre breaking all the time.
When my folks fell in love, They had no doubt
Whatever came their way, They would just work out
Now someones breaking up, Everytime you turn around
No one seems to know what love is all about.
Chorus:
They dont make hearts like they used to
These days a heart aint worth a dime,
They dont make hearts like they used to
Theyre breaking all the time.
It theres any hope for us to last for long
Then weve got to find the kind of love
Old hearts were built upon.
Chorus:
They dont make hearts like they used to
These days a heart aint worth a dime,
They dont make hearts like they used to
Theyre breaking all the time...

Bitter Tears
In the mist
Of my endless search
The best in life
Becomes clear
The rest just begins
To fade by itself
Thats a trick I learnt
Though it took so long
Bitter tears taste so sweet
Chorus
Im seeing my way
For the first time in years
When the love around
Begins to suffer
And you cant find love
In one
In one another
Push away those bitter tears
Bitter tears
And I thought I was doing no wrong
And I thought I was doing no wrong
In the hour of your needs
Lips are trembling
Cause youre gonna be free
Realise what were doing here
The time is right to kill your fears
Bitter tears taste so sweet
Chorus
And I thought I was doing no wrong
Push away those bitter tears
Push away those bitter tears
Push away those bitter tears
Push away those bitter tears
Thats what they call doing no wrong
Thats what they call doing no wrong
Push away those bitter tears
Push away those bitter tears
Push away those bitter tears
Thats what they call doing no wrong

I Dont Know What I Want
(eric carmen)
My old man says success is the measure
Maybe so but I dont need the pressure
Not right now cause I got enough
Teachers tell me I dont lack the brains
Ask if Im under some kind of strain
Well thats too much and I really cant take it
They all say that Im not getting younger
And Id better make up my mind
Man, youd think I was committin some kinda crime
cause I dont know what I want
I dont know what I want
I dont know what I want
But I want it now
When I talk they just dont wanna listen
The they push me to make some decisions
I cant wait and they wonder why
Everyone says Ive got no direction
They want me sent to a house of correction
Thats too much when I really cant take it
When I try to relieve my frustration
Seems like nothing I can do is right
My mind is aching and Im sick of being so uptight
cause I dont know what I want
I dont know what I want
I dont know what I want
But I want it now
All my life they complained that Im just a dreamer
But I cant make a move when they wound my pride
When they say it must stop they push and pull me
I dont know what to do
And its like Im just talking through a cell door
Some one give me a clue
cause I dont know what I want
I dont know what I want
I dont know what I want
But I want it now
I want it now
Oh, give it to me
Oh, yeah

Young Turks
(rod stewart / carmine appice, kevin savigar, duane hitchings)
Billy left his home with a dollar in his pocket and a head full of dreams.
He said somehow, some way, its gotta get better than this.
Patti packed her bags, left a note for her momma, she was just seventeen,
There were tears in her eyes when she kissed her little sister goodbye.
They held each other tight as they drove on through the night they were so exited.
We got just one shot of life, lets take it while were still not afraid.
Because life is so brief and time is a thief when youre undecided.
And like a fistful of sand, it can slip right through your hands.
Young hearts be free tonight. time is on your side,
Dont let them put you down, dont let em push you around,
Dont let em ever change your point of view.
Paradise was closed so they headed for the coast in a blissful manner.
They took a tworoom apartment that was jumping evry night of the week.
Happiness was found in each others arms as expected, yeah
Billy pierced his ears, drove a pickup like a lunatic, ooh!
Young hearts be free tonight.time is on your side,
Dont let them put you down, dont let em push you around,
Dont let em ever change your point of view.
[instrumental verse]
Young hearts be free tonight.time is on your side.
Billy wrote a letter back home to pattis parents tryin to explain.
He said were both real sorry that it had to turn out this way.
But there aint no point in talking when theres nobody listning so we just ran away
Patti gave birth to a ten pound baby boy, yeah!
Young hearts be free tonight, time is on your side.
Young hearts be free tonight, time is on your side.
Young hearts be free tonight, time in on your side.
Young hearts gotta run free, be free, live free
Time is on, time is on your side
Time, time, time, time is on your side

Is on your side

You Dont Know What Love Is
(steve bogard/marv green)
You say Im aggressive, too possessive
Its too soon, too much
You want to wait around, slow it down, but Im burnin up
What can I do to get through to you, I know that youre the one
cause theres no controllin this emotion, its bigger than us
You dont know what love is
If you think that I can fight this feeling
Keep my true heart from revealing
Everything inside
You dont know what love is
If you hear me say your mine forever
Feel our two hearts beat together
And think you can resist
You dont know what love is
Its soft and gentle, its sentimental, cant you feel it too
Theres no denyin or compromising, its perfectly true
Its overpowering, its all around me when Im around you
You dont know what love is
If you think that I can fight this feeling
Keep my true heart from revealing
Everything inside
You dont know what love is
If you hear me say your mine forever
Feel our two hearts beat together
And think you can resist
You dont know what love is
I see you smile and girl Im sure Ive found it
Heaven knows theres just no doubt about it now
You dont know what love is
If you think that I can fight this feeling
Keep my true heart from revealing
Everything inside
You dont know what love is
If you hear me say your mine forever
Feel our two hearts beat together

The World Of Broken Hearts
Every night youll find me in the only world I own.
Its a crowded place thats filled with people all alone.
Its a place that I could write a book about.
When they let you in, youll find theres no way out.
There you dont get in, cause theres no way out
Theres just no way out.
No way out when your in a world of broken hearts,
In a world of broken hearts,
Of broken hearts,
Of broken hearts.
Those who enter here are told to leave their dreams behind.
You may never get to sleep again, but you dont mind.
Its a place that I could write a book about.
When they let you in, youll find theres no way out.
There you dont get in, cause theres no way out
Theres just no way out.
No way out when your in a world of broken hearts,
In a world of broken hearts,
Of broken hearts,
Of broken hearts.
In a world of broken hearts,
In a world of broken hearts,
In a world of broken hearts,
Of broken hearts,
Of broken hearts.

Care For One Another..
Look at the hearts only,
Beating inside punctually,
as the stars majestically,
One above other vertically,
Hearts are beating vibrantly.
One above the other in high rise,
hearts toil with no surprise,
as the galaxies and constellations,
Hearts are beating horizontally,
Few hearts in big space,
Many hearts in small place,
as the diamonds twinkle in space,
Hearts are found in the ocean,
Hearts are there in the mountains,
Hearts are loitering in the jungles,
Hearts are beating in places,
as the planted gems above us,
Daring hearts are weak,
Weaker hearts are strong,
Most hearts are healthy,
Run and work in safety,
A few suffer and are sickly,
Clogged with fat and heavy,
Rich and poor man's hearts,
Educated and uneducated hearts,
Good and evil hearts,
Agnostic and spiritual hearts,
Healthy and sick hearts,
Beat everywhere to show,
That we care for one another,
and we love one another,
as we look at the stars,
the stars look at our hearts.

And I Love You
Say there aint no remedies for the way I feel
They say you aint no good for me cuz you aint for real
But they dont see the little things
The things that touch my heart
The way I feel when Im inside your arms
And I love you
As in more than anything
And I love you
Even when my hearts in pain
And I love you
Is there any other way
Im gon love you till my dying day
See, I done been through everything, seen it all before
And I know there aint no such thing as perfect love no more
But mines is good enough for me, so leave my heart alone
Hes the best thing that my hearts gonna ever know
And I love you
As in more than anything
And I love you
Even when my hearts in pain
And I love you
Is there any other way
Im gon love you till my dying day
And I love you
As in more than anything
And I love you
Even when my hearts in pain
And I love you
Is there any other way
Im gon love you till my dying day
If love is a miracle, then Ive got mine baby
Everybody is invisible, I dont need them in my life
Cuz you are my sunshine
Even though you bring the rain
I dont care what they do
I dont care what they say
Im gonna love you anyway
And I love you
As in more than anything
And I love you
Even when my hearts in pain
And I love you
Is there any other way
Im gon love you till my dying day

Wild Hearts Run Out Time
You're gone again this morning.
How long will you keep running on and on.
Can't you see the warning.
I need you more than ever.
Before you're gone forever.
Please don't let your heart run out of time.

Don't let this old world turn you.
Dont' let the wild life hurt you anymore.
Don't let the bright lights burn you.
Please don't stand there crying.
Because the time is flying.
I can't let your heart run out of time.
Wild hearts run out of time.
When you're up against the night.
Don't stand there all alone.
In the dying of the light.
Wild hearts run out of time.
And you'll need a love like mine.
To show you hope is there
In the sunshine of your mind.
Wild hearts run of time.

Hearts Never Lie
(duet with chris farren)
(alan roy scott/hugh james)
Too good together to be so apart these days
And now more than ever
We need to talk face to face
We stopped moving forward
And now were some place else
But the more we fool each other
The less we fool ourselves
Cause our hearts never lie
They just feel the love
Try so hard to deny
Theres no reason to act like we dont care
When the truth is always there
Oh hearts never lie
Why should we
This whole thing is crazy
Building walls to keep out the pain
When theres no changing
Mistakes already made
So lets start all over
One emotion at a time
Beginning with this feeling
That weve never lost inside
Cause our hearts never lie
They just feel the love
Try so hard to deny
Theres no reason to act like we dont care
When the truth is always there
Oh hearts never lie
Why should we
Does the word love scare you away
Does forever seem too long to stay
Now its time we end this nowhere charade
And a real good place to start
Is to listen to your heart
Cause our hearts never lie
They just feel the love
Try so hard to deny
Theres no reason to act like we dont care
When the truth is always there
Oh hearts never lie
Why should we
