Homesick Again
Nazareth
Sad to be alone
Your only comfort is the telephone
Homesick again
Thoughts of far away
Silence is the only way to say
Aint it a shame
Whats goin down, she dont understand
Cant you be with her every night
Why must it be, youre away so long
But she plays along, and its alright
People all around
You dont see or hear them make a sound
Its not the same
Whats goin down, she dont understand
Cant you be with her every night
Why must it be, youre away so long
But she plays along, and its alright
Countin out the days
That dont help to ease the days away
The price you pay
Homesick again

We take and we give, just playin our gig
But we got laid over
Ya we was done over
Somebody tell us whats goin down

Six miles high, six miles along
Chasin the sun weve come to sing you a song
Deliver our goods

All these behind us, and one more to go
Fly to vancouver, to do the lastshow

Changin Times
When I was younger I used to understand
That when youre with a girl, you gotta act like a man
Mama told me thats the way it should be
And I know my mama never lied to me.
What do you think about youre changin times
cause when Im with you I just cant make up my mind
Since I met you dont know right from wrong
Somebody tell me just whats goin on
Just cant get myself thinkin straight
Im all shook up and in a terrible state
Sometimes I think I got it all figured out
Then you do something new and it just knocks me right out
Someday baby Im going to have to make a stand
The way that you treat me baby
Dont make me feel too much like a man
And baby, baby, the changes youre goin through
Youre drivin me half crazy
Cant make up my mind what to do about you.
Tellin myself that time is on my side
Youre gettin this feelin that my minds on the slide
Dumped on the floor, I feel Im trapped in a spin
Dont know how to end, cant think of where to begin
She dont care I know she dont even try
But when she turns it on
You know she gets me so high.
Shes a lady thats making my life a sin
You know that Im runnin in a losin race
There aint no way I can win
Baby, baby, the changes youre goin through
Theyre drivin me half crazy
Cant make up my mind what to do about you.

You Dont Have To Act Tha
Written by: myles goodwyn
You act like someone else and I dont know why
You try to pretend youre hurt but you wont cry
And I dont believe the things that you told me
I know that you only do it cos youre lonely
And all your friends have lost their way
And you dont know who you can turn to
Its been such a long, long way girl
And I know what youve been through
So you dont have to act that way, tonite
You dont have to act that way tonite
People misunderstand you when its not right
Im gonna hold your hand and make you feel nice
Im gonna show you all that love can be
Ill always be around when you need me
Look into my eyes and smile for me
Ill hold you in my arms youll see
All it takes is one on one and that can be
Enough for some
So you dont have to act that way tonite
You dont have to act that way tonite
So you dont have to act that way tonite
You dont have to act that way tonite
Its alright
Its alright
You dont have to say youre sorry
Id never turn your words around
Be yourself now dont be lonely
You know Id never let you down
Tell me what youve been goin thru
Im trying to understand and get to know you
You can believe the things that Im sayin
Put all your trust in me and what youre feelin
All your friends have lost their way
And you dont know who you can turn to
Its seems such a long long way
And I know what you been through
So you dont have to act that way tonite
You dont have to act that way tonite
You dont have to act that way tonite
Its alright
Its alright
Its alright

Dont Lie
(frank rogers/chet biggers)
That old photograph of us sure looks out of place
Laying on your bag out in the hall.
Youre takin it to remind you of our better days...
The ones you say youll miss when youre gone.
Dont lie...dont try to fool me...
Cause girl I know whats goin on.
Dont lie...you owe it to me...
Believe me leave well enough alone.
So just go ahead and say goodbye...
But dont lie.
Well Ive seen all his letters in the closet
Ive caught a trace of his cologne on you at night.
So dont stand there and act so broken hearted...
Tell me how its killin you inside.
Dont lie...dont try to fool me...
Cause girl I know whats goin on.
Dont lie...you owe it to me...
Believe me leave well enough alone.
So just go ahead and say goodbye...
But dont lie.
Just come out and say it...
Dont worry I can take it...
Dont you think that I deserve the truth?
Dont lie...dont try to fool me...
Cause girl I know whats goin on.
Dont lie...you owe it to me...
Believe me leave well enough alone.
So just go ahead and say goodbye...
But dont lie.

I Aint Runnin Yet
(jamie o hara/gary nicholson)
Ive come to see its a pattern with me
To make a fast getaway
Everytime I get a little too near to love
Somebody gets too close
The next thing I know
Im up and gone again
Chasin the wind and the distant stars above
Ah girl
But I dont know whats been goin on
Since the night we met
All I know is
I aint runnin yet
Girl I can see when you look at me
Youre lookin for a sign
That somewhere in this heart of mine theres a place for you
But I want you to know
When those feelings show
Thats what chases me away
But tonight I just gotta stay and see this through
Ah girl
But I dont know whats been goin on
Since the night we met
All I know is
I aint runnin yet
I aint runnin away from the love I see so deep in your eyes
I aint runnin away and I cant even say just why
Oh I dont know whats been going on since the night we met
All I know is I aint runnin yet
I aint runnin away from the love I see so deep in your eyes
I aint runnin away and I cant even say just why
Oh I dont know whats been going on since the night we met
All I know is I aint runnin yet
Girl I dont know whats been goin on
Since the night we met
All I know is
I aint runnin yet

Cry Wolf
Ime out, no good now
Screamin too loud
And I cant hear a word you say
Look out, way too late
Suns going down
And Im comin around your way
You keep calling me all night
You keep saying its alright, alright
Got me runnin
When you cry, you cry, cry wolf
Got me running, cry,cry--cry, cry wolf
Dont touch, dont look now
Somethins cookin
And its keepin me hang around
But when the call comes through
Im ready for you and you say it aint true
But youre keepin your defenses down
You keep callin me all night
You keep saying its alright, alright
Got me runnin
When you cry, you cry, cry wolf
Got me runnin cry, cry--cry wolf

I Dont Want To Be Your Friend
I dont wanna see your face
I dont wanna hear your name
I dont wanna thing
Just stay away baby
Dont wanna know if youre alright
Or what youre doin with your life
Dont wanna hear that youll stay in touch maybe
Ill get just fine
So if youre goin then darlin goodbye, goodbye
Dont call me in the middle of the night no more
Dont expect me to be there
Dont think that it will be the way it was before
Im not over you yet
And I dont think I care
And I dont want to be your friend
Ill forget we ever met
Ill forget I ever let
Ever let you into this heart of mine baby
You just gotta let me be
You gotta keep away from me
cause all I want to be is just free of you baby
Dont you come around
And say you still care about me
Go now, go now
Dont call me in the middle of the night...
You take it casually, and thats whats killing me
Ill get by just fine
So if youre goin then darlin goodbye, goodbye
Dont call me in the middle of the night no more
Dont expect me to be there
Dont think that it will be the way it was before
No, no baby
Dont call me in the middle of the night no more

Carry Out Feelings
Nazareth
Im not just something you can pick up or put down
Entertainment value, like some circus clown
Dont give green stamps
With my emotions
Donthave a cut price soul
Dont do,
Carry out feelings
Or take away love
Carry out feelings
You take away love
Carry out feelings
You take away love
Dont have the kind of heart
You reap and you take away
Keep in your cold store to use at some future date
Dont give a refund on my emotions
No discounting on my soul
Dont do,
Carry out feelings
Or, take away love
Carry out feelings
You take away love
Carry out feelings
And take away love
Im not just someone you can pick up and throw away
Someone to join you in arecycled love affair
Dont give green stamps with my emotions
Donthave a cut price soul
Dont do,
Carry out feelings
Or take away love
Carry out feelings
You take away love
Carry out feelings
You take away love
Carry out feelings
You take away love

You Make Me Crazy
I waited all night
I smoked a hundred cigarettes
I chewed my lip til it bled
But the phone made not a sound
Sometimes I wonder
If you ever wonder whats become of little old me
But I aint no baby
I aint gonna cry but baby
You dont know whats going on inside me
Yknow you make me crazy
What you do to me
Its a chemical reaction or an allergy
Yknow you make me crazy
Youre aware of that
Why dont you come and put me away
It was a long night
I could barely keep my head
I heard a knock on the door
It was only harry jones
I used to wonder
What it is that makes me feel like I cant be free
cause you dont give me nothing
You never give me nothing
But you dont know whats going on inside me
Yknow you make me crazy
Im in misery
Are you interested enough to see whats left of me
You scared me
The way you move in the night
Your face is something frightening
Youre not so nice
Im gonna wonder
Who you spend your time with
Everywhere you go and what you see
I know Im not your daddy
I dont want to be your daddy
But you know whats going on inside me

Gone In The Night
Honey kick your shoes off now
And stay another night
Lets not talk too seriously
We dont wanna fight
Now I dont care about your reputation
Or how you got it made
All I want is for you to stay
Dont want a charade
*and the lights go down
Who you with tonight
It aint so easy holding on
Everything you seem to do babe
Just turns out so wrong
Youre gone in the night
Youre gone in the night
Youre gone in the night
People try to tell you now
About responsibilities
Those married-men dos and donts
How it ought to be
But I dont care what they say
Dont wanna hear whats true
As long as you want me baby
You know I need you

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

Let er Rip
I can tell theres something you dont wanna tell me
Its killing you cause the words are hard to find
I know you want to break it to me gently
Well sweet baby say whats on your mind
Chorus:
Let er rip, let it fly
Come on baby, say it, do you think Im gonna cry
I aint about to bawl, and I aint gonna die
So if youre gonna say goodbye, dont take all day and night
Let er rip, let it fly
Why the drama, we dont have to drag out this situation
It wasnt you, it wasnt me, sometimes the chemistry dont ignite
There aint no rings, no mortgage, there aint any complications
Its just a hyphenated word, get it out, Im sure Ill be alright
Repeat chorus
It aint no big deal, it aint no great loss
You and I are on the same train of thought
So you dont have to tell me where to get off
Maybe I misunderstood you, if youre leaving, baby would you
Repeat chorus
So if youre gonna say goodbye, dont take all day and night
Let er rip, let it fly

You can live your own life and Ill live mine
I will never try to keep you down
And even if I only see you some of the time

There is nothing that will overcome the love we share,
Nothing that will break us apart

Gotta always have you in my heart

That Dont Impress Me Much
Ive known a few guys who thought they were pretty smart
But youve got being right down to an art
You think youre a genius--you drive me up the wall
Youre a regular original, a know-it-all
Bridge:
Oh-oo-oh, you think youre special
Oh-oo-oh, you think youre something else
Okay, so youre a rocket scientist
That dont impress me much
So you got the brain but have you got the touch
Dont get me wrong, yeah I think youre alright
But that wont keep me warm in the middle of the night
That dont impress me much
I never knew a guy who carried a mirror in his pocket
And a comb up his sleeve--just in case
And all that extra hold gel in your hair oughtta lock it
cause heaven forbid it should fall outta place
(bridge)
Okay, so youre brad pitt
That dont impress me much
So you got the looks but have you got the touch
Dont get me wrong, yeah I think youre alright
But that wont keep me warm in the middle of the night
That dont impress me much
Youre one of those guys who likes to shine his machine
You make me take off my shoes before you let me get in
I cant believe you kiss your car good night
Cmon baby tell me--you must be jokin, right!
(bridge)
Okay, so youve got a car
That dont impress me much
So you got the moves but have you got the touch
Dont get me wrong, yeah I think youre alright
But that wont keep me warm in the middle of the night
That dont impress me much
You think youre cool but have you got the touch
Dont get me wrong, yeah I think youre alright
But that wont keep me warm on the long, cold, lonely night
That dont impress me much
Okay, so what do you think youre elvis or something...
Whatever

Lift The Lid
Nazareth
Here I am, sitting on my porch
Thinkin my life has got to be beyond reproach
Have I forgot some friends close to me
Real ones that dont use me
And does my woman love me now
Like she loved me then
Here I am,my defenses are down
Will she remember me when Im not around
Will she still dream by me
Or will she find a new life
Will I ever get used, to being alone at night
Ill never know, but would it do me any good if I did
Life is a strange brew, maybe we should not lift the lid
Lift the lid
Ill never know, but would it do me any good if I did
Life is a strange brew, maybe we should not lift the lid
Lift the lid
