While I Cry
They told me what youd do
If I ever stayed with you.
They told me that youd laugh
While I cried.
They told me what youd say
That youd turn and walk away
And find another place to play,
While I cried.
Now I think back on those times
I didnt read between the lines.
How all the things that you said
Never seemed to match the things you did.
Thoughts keep turning round in my mind
Now I see reason and rhyme.
Time spent with you has brought me something
And Ive lost nothing if you are that kind.
They told me what youd do
If I ever stayed with you
And sure enough,
It all came true.

Didnt I
Well I thought I could make you cry
Oh didnt i?
I didnt think that I would miss you
Ah did you, did you true?
And I told you before
When you walked out that door
That I wouldnt love you any more
I cannot cope any more
Well I thought youd never lie
Why didnt i?
I didnt think that youd be untrue
Well did you, did you too?
And Ive told you before
When youd walk out that door
That I would no cope any more
I do not have you any more
I thought I could make you cry
And I tried now didnt i?
I didnt think that I would miss you
But it wasnt true, I do
And I told you before
A million times or more
That when youd walk out that door
I would no love you any more
I do not love you any more
I lied now didnt i?
Oh didnt i?
There are people in this town
That say I dont give a damn
But the people in this town
They never could understand
Oh they never could understand
I thought I could make you cry
And I tried, now didnt i? didnt I try, didnt i?
I didnt think that I would miss you
But it wasnt true, I do, I do
And I told you before
That youd open up my sores
And youd leave me here with scars
I cannot take it any more
Oh dont hurt me no more
I cried and I cried, now didnt i?
Why didnt I try? why didnt i?

You Told Me
By michael nesmith
You told me youd always stay, you told me!
You told me youd never stray, you told me!
All these things you said you said sincerely.
Still I am leaving you in spite of what you told me.
Ive heard things that did not match what you told me.
And of your love that would not last as you told me.
Forwarned is forearmed, it hurts, Im leaving.
I may be wrong I cant love what Im just hearing.
Times have made me shy
Of all the things youre saying
Time have made me shy
Of girls and all the games they are playing.
Someday I may see the truth of what you told me.
I may find I left too soon and that you told me.
Only things that you were honestly feeling.
I must have more to love than what you told me.
Yes, I must have more to love than what you told me.
Yes, I must have more to love than what you told me.

I Do
All the times you came
I shouldve ran away
You told me that youd always love me
You told me that youd always love me
And the games you played
Were meant to lead me on
You told me that youd always love me
You told me that youd always love me
Always, oooh always
I do
You told me that youd always love me
You told me that youd always love me
Always, oooh always
I do
Never more again

Slow Down
Written by dan peek, 1977
Found on harbor.
I hear you knockin but you cant come in
You wear your stockings like you think its a sin
Dont try to tell me you aint been where you been
cause I know that youve been messin round with him
So slow down
(bop shoo wop, youd better slow down)
Come on down
(bop shoo wop, youd better slow down)
Oh down
(bop shoo wop, youd better slow down)
Before it gets too late
Before it gets too late
I met you dancin at the high school gym
You rubbed against me my head started to spin
You turned around gave me a wink and a grin
And then you told me that youd like to be friends
Dont slow down
(bop shoo wop, youd better slow down)
Dont slow down
(bop shoo wop, youd better slow down)
Dont slow down
(bop shoo wop, youd better slow down)
Dont slow down
Before it gets too late
Before it gets too late
Take it!
(bop shoo wop, youd better slow down)
On down
(bop shoo wop, youd better slow down)
On down
(bop shoo wop, youd better slow down)
Dont try to tell me
(bop shoo wop, youd better slow down)
Youll never sell me
(bop shoo wop, youd better slow down)
Before it gets too late
I said before it gets too late
You know before it gets too late
Oh, hey

If Youd Ever Needed Someone
Stop right there and listen,
Before you say something you might regret
I know somethings missing
But I cant begin to accept what you said
Maybe, you can show me
Exactly where Im goin wrong
Cos lately Ive been thinking
Maybe Ive been round here too long
If youd ever needed someone in your life
Maybe then youd know
Why my heart just wants you to stay
But my head tells me lo let her go
If youd ever needed someone
One way or another
Whatever I do it seems you criticize
Is there any wonder
The hurt that I feel is so thinly disguised
I cant help but notice
Little things that tell me so much
Is it only a matter of time
Before Im missing your tender touch?
If youd ever needed someone in your life
Maybe then youd know
Why my heart just wants you to stay
But my head tells me to let her go
If youd ever needed someone
If youd put yourself in my place
You could never say whats gone is gone
If youd ever needed someone

Tell Me
You never told me what you were thinking of,
You only told me it was nothing but love.
You said youd always be my friend
You said youd stay.
Coming with everything I had for you,
Giving all, and get nothing back.
You came, you said youd meet me there.
You said youd stay.
Tell me, Tell me,
Tell me what you want.
You said youd be my friend.
Tell me, Tell me,
Tell me what you want.
I know its not too late.
GO !!!
Coming with everything I had for you,
Giving all I ever had.
Knowing nothing ever really matters,
I know you cared.
Tell me, Tell me,
Tell me what you want.
I know it? not too late
Tell me, Tell me,
Tell me what you want.
I know its not too late.
Yeah, Yeah, YEAH !
Tell me, Tell me,
Tell me what you want.
I know it? not too late
Tell me, Tell me,
Tell me what you want.
I know its not too LATE !!!

Round & Round
(chorus)
Round and round I go
Where I stop
You will never know
Round and round I go
Where I stop
You will never know
(vs.1)
I just dont understand
What is your master plan
What did you have me do
Confusion in my mind
Been hurt a thousand times
Now I know youre not true
(thats why I cant be with you)
You dont know what it meant to me
Just to make you happy
All this time Ive waited
Now our love has faded
Please tell me why its gone
So my life can go on
(chorus)
(vs.2)
I told you once before
Im walkin out the door
Im leaving you behind
Thinking bout you all the time
Makes me so sad and blue
Now what are we gonna do
(thats why I cant be with you)
You dont know what you did to me
When you told me you loved me
Now youre actin shady
Now Im goin crazy
Please stop holdin back from me
Cause I got to keep from goin round
(chorus)
Oh, ohhhh
Oh, ohhhh
Oh, ohhhh
Oh, ohhhh

You promised me youd never leave
You said youd stay with me always
Always
Youd never leave

Insane
Somebody told me it was over
Nobody told me where it began
No one believes in you
I understand
Like a blind man
Whos lost his way
No one hears a word
Of what you say
I forgive you
Would you do the same
I would believe you
If only youd be true
I would believe if it were true
Cause everybody wants to be a winner
Nobody wants to lose their game
Its the same for me
Its the same for you
Its insane insane insane insane insane
Insane insane insane insane insane insane
I dont know where youve been looking
I think its only in your mind
Its tied so tight inside of you
All the thoughts unkind
I would believe you
If only youd be true
I would believe if it were true
Cause everybody wants to be a winner
Nobody wants to lose their game
Its the same for me
Its the same for you
Its insane insane insane insane insane
Insane insane insane insane insane
Insane
I would believe you
If only youd be true
Im getting older
And I cant escape time
Cause everybody wants to be a winner
Nobody wants to lose their game
Its the same for me
Its the same for you
Its insane insane insane insane insane
Insane insane insane
Cause everybody wants to be a winner
Nobody wants to lose their game
Its the same or me
Its the same for you
Its insane insane insane insane insane
Insane insane insane insane insane insane

What Went Wrong
(clarke / hicks / nash)
If you could look my way
Youd know that I exist
And then youd realise
Im waiting to be kissed
By you baby
Tell me what went wrong
With our love
Each time that you walk by
I feel my heart would break
And then I think about
The pain Id have to take
From you baby
Tell me what went wrong
With our love
Youd be the only reason
That Im leaving town
Youd be the only reason
Why Id come back
For one more day
Why Id come back
And maybe stay
If I could find out
What to say to you
Break
Youd be the only reason
That Im leaving town
Youd be the only reason
Why Id come back
For one more day
Why Id come back
And maybe stay
If I could find out
What to say to you
So, Ill just pretend
That you will look my way
And I am hoping
That youll come to me and say
Tell me baby
Tell me what went wrong
With our love
With our love
With our love

Badge
Im thinking about the times you drove in my car
Im thinking that I might have drove you too far
Im thinking of the love
That you laid on my table
I told you not to wander round in the dark
I told you bout the swans that they live in the park
Then I told you about our kid
Now hes married to mabel
Yes I told you that the life goes up and down
Notice how the wheel goes round?
And youd better pick yourself up from the ground
Before they bring the curtain down
Yes before they bring the curtain down
Talking about a girl that looks quite like you
She didnt have the time to wait in the queue
She cried away her life since she fell out the cradle

One thing is clear to me. You cant know everything youd like to know. You cant do everything youd like to do. You cant read everything youd like to read. You must hold onto some things and let go of others. Learning to make that choice is one of the big lessons of this life.

Rudy
Rudys on a train to nowhere, halfway down the line
He dont wanna get there, but he needs time
He aint sophisticated, nor well-educated
After all the hours he wasted, still he needs time.
He needs time - he needs time for livin,
He needs time - for someone just to see him.
He aint haid no lovin
For no reason or rhyme
And the whole worlds above him.
Well its not as though hes fat-
No theres more to this than that-
See he tries to play it cool-
Wouldnt be nobody fool.
Rudy thought that all good things comes to those that wait
But recently he could see that it may come too late.
All through your life, all through the years
Nobody loved, nobody cared.
So dim the light, dark are your fears
Try as I might, I cant hold back the tears
How can you live without love, its not fair?
Someone said give but I just didnt dare.
What good advice are you waiting to hear?
Hearings alright for them thats all there
Youd better gain control now
Youd better showem all now
Youd better make or break now
Youd better give and take now
Youll have to push and shove now
Youll have to find some love now
Youd better gain control now.
Now hes just come out the movie.
Numb of all the pain,
Sad but in a while hell soon be
Back on his train...

There Speaks A True Friend
Now, there
There speaks a true friend
There speaks a friend for life
You told me all the things
That you think are wrong with me
I just wish youd stayed around and helped me put them right
But nevertheless :
There ... mm
There speaks a true friend
There speaks a friend for life
You listed all the things
That people cannot stand about me
I just wish youd stayed around and helped me to improve
Because Ive tried, Ive tried
Oh, Ive really really tried
You say I dont know how to live
(and thats true)
You say I dont deserve to live
Oh, where would I be without my friends to help me ?
I just cant imagine where Id be, can you ?

Never Dreamed Youd Leave In Summer
I never dreamed youd leave in summer
I thought you would go then come back home
I thought the cold would leave by summer
But my quiet nights will be spent alone
You said there would be warm love in springtime
That was when you started to be cold
I never dreamed youd leave in summer
But now I find myself all alone
You said then youd be the life in autumn
Said youd be the one to see the way
I never dreamed youd leave in summer
But now I find my love has gone away
Why didnt you stay?

The End Of The World
(tennant/lowe)
-----------------------
Floods of tears and doors slamming
Stamping feet across the landing
Because of your obligation
To stay home and fight
Sitting down to a composition
Test the limits of your inhibition
If the phone hasnt rung by midnight
Its over tonight
If someone tried, youd realise
Its just a boy or a girl
Its not the end of the world
Piles of toast and broken promises
Among the books and pens and reading glasses
It seems theres no escape from the humdrum
Its over and done
If someone tried, youd realise
Its just a boy or a girl
Its not the end of the world
If someone cried, youd sympathise
Its just a boy or a girl
Its not the end of the world
At midnight in desperation
Imagine total teenage destruction
The prophets all predicted extinction
The virgin spoke in apparitions
And if it all came to pass now
You feel wed all deserve it somehow
But if someone tried (youd realise)
Youd realise (and sympathise)
Its just a boy or a girl
Its not the end of the world
If someone cried (youd sympathise)
Youd sympathise (and realise)
Its just a boy or a girl
Its not the end of the world
Its not the end

If You Were A Bluebird
(butch hancock)
If you were a bluebird youd be a sad one
Id give you a true word
But youve already had one
If you were a bluebird,
Youd be crying
Youd be flying home
If you were a raindrop,
Youd shine like a rainbow
And if you were a train stop,
The conductor would sing low
If you were a raindrop,
Youd be falling
Youd be calling home
If you were a hotel
Honey, youd be a grand one
But, if you hit a slow spell,
Do you think you could stand one
If you were a hotel,
Well Id lean on your doorbell
Id call you my home
If I was a highway,
Id stretch alongside you
Id help you pass by ways
That had dissatisfied you
If I was a highway,
Well Id be stretchin
Id be fetchin you home

Youd be so nice to come home to
Youd be so nice by the fire
While that breeze on night sings a lullaby
Youd be all my heart could desire
Under stars chilled by the winter
Under an august moon shining above
Youd be so nice youd be paradise
To come home to and love

Dont wanna judge nobody, dont wanna be judged,
Dont wanna touch nobody, dont wanna be touched.

Dont wanna amuse nobody, dont wanna be amused.
But if you do right to me, baby,
Ill do right to you, too.
Ya got to do unto others

Dont wanna betray nobody, dont wanna be betrayed,
Dont wanna play with nobody, dont wanna be waylaid.

Kicks
You thought you found the answer on that magic carpet ride last night,
But, when you wake up in the morning, the world still gets you uptight,
Well, theres nothing that you aint tried
To fill the emptiness inside,
But, when you come back down, you still aint feeling right.
It seems like kicks just keep getting harder to find,
All your kicks aint bringing you peace of mind,
Before you find out its too late,
Youd better get straight,
But, not with kicks, you just need help now.
You think youre gonna find yourself a little piece of paradise,
But, it aint happened yet, so now youd better think twice,
Dont you see, no matter what you do,
Youll never run away from you
If you keep on running, youll have to pay the price.
Dont it seem like, kicks just keep getting harder to find,
All your kicks aint bringing you peace of mind,
Before you find out its too late,
Youd better get straight,
But, not with kicks.
To help you face the world each day,
That road goes nowhere,
Im gonna help you find yourself another way.
Kicks just keep getting harder to find
You dont need kicks, now,
And all your kicks aint bringing you peace of mind
You just need help, now,
Before you find out its too late, youd better get straight
Youd better, youd better, youd better.
Kicks just keep getting harder to find
You dont need kicks, now,
And all your kicks aint bringing you peace of mind
You just need help, now,
Before you find out its too late, youd better get straight
Youd better, youd better, youd better.
Kicks just keep getting harder to find
And all your kicks aint bringing you peace of mind
Before you find out its too late, youd better get straight
Kicks just keep getting harder to find
And all your kicks aint bringing you peace of mind
Before you find out its too late, youd better get straight
