You draw beautifully with your pencil

You draw beautifully with your pencil,
sketches of almost any flower and plant,
things that are alive and some things that are dead

even a woman giving birth
on the beach.
You draw beautifully with your pencil

on a table are slices of bread
with a hungry dog on the other side;
things that are alive and some things that are dead,

there are children that are wasting away from starvation
and a woman’s hand with a wedding band.
You draw beautifully with your pencil,

a sounding level going down a well
being held by a strong male hand.
Things that are alive and some things that are dead,

you sketch and sometimes it’s any thing valuable;
even people in love on a tropical island
and you draw beautifully with your pencil
things that are alive and some things that are dead.

Questions 67 & 68

Can this feeling that we have together
Oooh, suddenly exist between
Did this meeting of our minds together
Oooh, happen just today, some way
Id like to know
Can you tell me; please dont tell me
It really doesnt matter anyhow
Its just that the thought of us so happy
Appears in my mind, as a beautifully mysterious thing
Was your image in my mind so deeply
Oooh, other faces fade away
Blocking memories of unhappy hours
Oooh, leavin just a burnin love
Id like to know
Can you tell me; please dont tell me
It really doesnt matter anyhow
Its just that the thought of us so happy
Appears in my mind, as a beautifully mysterious thing
Yes it does now baby
Can this lovin we have found within us
Oooh, suddenly exist between
Did we somehow try to make it happen
Oooh, was it just a natural thing
Id like to know
Can you tell me -- please dont tell me
It really doesnt matter anyhow
Its just that the thought of us so happy
Appears in my mind, as a beautifully mysterious thing
Yes it does now baby

The Navajo Night Way Ceremony

In beauty may I walk
All day long may I walk
Through the returning seasons may I walk
Beautifully I will possess again
Beautifully birds
Beautifully joyful birds
On the trail marked with pollen may I walk
With grasshoppers about my feet may I walk
With dew about my feet may I walk
With beauty may I walk
With beauty before me may I walk
With beauty behind me may I walk
With beauty above me may I walk
With beauty all around me may I walk
In old age, wandering on a trail of beauty,
lively, may I walk
In old age, wandering on a trail of beauty,
living again, may I walk
It is finished in beauty
It is finished in beauty

An economist is a surgeon with an excellent scalpel and a rough-edged lancet, who operates beautifully on the dead and tortures the living.

Turns dry

Even if everything turns dry
You don’t have to ask why
Feel proud and not shy
You still chance to try

You are his creation
Born not out of frustration
But with a love to whole world
Not to shiver or feel cold

Come to realize
Beautifully organize
See the lovely change
Adjust and beautifully manage

The matter of a thing

You are a spiritual thing,
You are a living thing,
You are a breathing thing,
You are a amazing thing,
You are a vivacious thing,
and you can arise above anything,
because you were created by the King of Kings,
to do wonderful and kingly things.
Therefore each day, as you look into
the mirror, allow your eyes to behold you.
Also be ever mindful, and make a mental note of
the true, authentic you.
The matter of a great thing.

This Is Living

(words & music by weisman - wise)
This is living, full of fun and free
This is living, thats the life for me
Its good to laugh and sing, dont worry about a thing
Wear a happy smile, cut loose and run a mile
If you relax and just enjoy it all, life has got to be a ball
This is living, full of fun and free
This is living, thats the life for me
It wouldnt mean a thing
If I could be a king
I really wouldnt care
To be a millionaire
Id rather find someone to love a lot
Live and give it all Ive got
This is living, full of fun and free
This is living, thats the life for me
Dont wanna settle down
I gotta move around
I gotta lot of time
Im gonna wait and find
The kinda girl whos heart is restless too
The kind who feels the way I do
This is living, full of fun and free
This is living, thats the life for me

Living In Oz

Ever since I was a kid
I remember having dreams of grandeur
I was gonna be someone, I know what I want
Everybody played second best
And I held you back just like all the rest
I think I got what I want
Everybodys got to fight their demons
And you know I had to fight mine, too
It took a lot out of me, it took a lot out of you
To be living in oz, living in oz
Sometimes the dream can wake you
Living in oz, living in oz
Sometimes the dream can shock you, too
All the money that I spend on you
Doesnt mean a thing if the loves not true
Baby please, Ill get what you want
Cant you tell me you and me aint lost
I know what I did, I know what it cost
Now Im yours and Ive got what you want
All the fightin will have been for nothin
If at the end I cant have you
Ill throw it all away if thats what you want me to do
Living in oz, living in oz
Sometimes the dream can wake you
Living in oz, living in oz
Sometimes the dream can shake you, too
Funny how desire can burn you up inside
And make you commit emotional suicide
Everybodys got the desire to leave their mark
Some just do it over a trail of broken hearts
And all the people that protect and serve
Would disappear if the well dried up
Im thirsty for affection
Let me drink from your loving cup
Living in oz, living in oz
Sometimes the dream can shock you
Living in oz, living in oz
Sometimes the dream can rock you
Living in oz, living in oz
Sometimes the dream can shake you
Living in oz, living in oz
Sometimes the dream can wake you, too

Living Without Your Love

(david wolfert / steve nelson)
If I passed you on the street
Would you look the other way
Afraid that we would meet
Could it be that its down to tears?
After all the love we knew
It was so hard losing you
Now I feel it coming on
That emptiness again
cause Ive been living without your love
Just making believe I can still get by
Paying the price inside, oh
God knows the hardest thing Ill ever do
Losing you, ooh, oh
I try to put the thoughts away
But I see your face before me
As you turn to walk away
And I can force a smile
cause it turned out so wrong
After feeling so right so long
And Im just not ready for another day alone
cause Ive been living without your love
Just making believe I can still get by
Paying the price inside, oh
God knows the hardest thing Ill ever do
Losing you
Yeah, eah
I feel it coming on
That emptiness again
cause Ive been living without your love, oh
Just making believe I can still get by
Paying the price inside
Lord knows the hardest thing Ill ever do
Losing you
Im, just living
Oh, living without your love
Ill get by
But Im paying, yeah
Without your love
I cant get back to much more love
Oh no
Im not ready for
Im not ready for
Love and loneliness
Living, oh yes, Im living without your love
Ill just get by
Im just getting by
I cant stand it much longer
Ah, living, living without

He lives in me

Where does God lives
Up there or within me
If there is God in the sky
Why cant he hear my cry
Why cant he feel my pain
We has eyes but cant see
He has ears but cant hear
Why must i live in fear
If he is a good judge
Why is his world unfair
May be there is no reason
In living justly
Being truthfully and uprightly
Why should he discriminate against me
Why cant he save me
If he is my protector
Evil men became richer and stronger
May be living a good life
Is my failure
Who will be a good door keeper
Is it God or my neighbor
If people around me
Are not truthful and helpful
why won't life be
so painful and stressful

More than important

Even if everything turns dry
You don’t have to ask why
Feel proud and not shy
You still have chance to try

You are his creation
Born not out of frustration
But with a love to whole world
So not to shiver or feel cold

Come to realize
Beautifully organize
See the lovely change
Adjust and beautifully manage

Life and style is your way
Live nicely and spend the day
Be it ordinary or gorgeous and elegant
How you live is more than important

Dreaming

Yeah! ?
Yeah! ?
Yea!

I follow a dream
Down the alley's end
Where I dare not
even do I scream

Always:
Was the living
That was such a sin
And when I wasn't
Does it come unto an end

Dreaming was easy
Just like breathing all again
All that one has to do is
Open up and let it in


My expectations were justly high
Were all I surely needed
If my dreams just get me by
Surely Oh how have I succeeded

The first thing I read was of my character on the phone talking to Sydney's fiance. Though short, it was so beautifully written, and it made me laugh. I thought if I wanted to play a character, this would be it.

Delightful Plant-Life

Orchards of Delight are the meals of a living soul.
Trees can rest above the heads of minute humans.
The flower has a scent to beautifully entrance your fibres.
The seeds are sown for the very Kingdom of Plants.
I have no answer to the question: Is life a lovely plant-like existence?

Electra Made Me Blind

I shake the dust from this small town
I turn and follow the western
Wind down
I go and pack up my shiny things
And go, yeah just go
Ill find a new life in old l.a.
Yeah, stupid happy with everything
I pulled myself down so easily
I know, I know, I know
I met electra when living down
Saw her spinning around and around
I never knew much about her past
I knew enough that I didnt ask
Living isnt a simple thing
I know
No one ever said its supposed to be
I know
July she lied...
Living isnt a simple thing for me
I know ways to make it easier

The Very Thing That Makes You Rich

My father told me, lying on his bed of death,
"boy," he says, "woman she's gonna make it, don't fool your self
'cause she's got something to make a man lay that money, uh, right in her hand
And the very thing that makes her rich will make you poor
The very thing that makes her rich will make you poor"
That's right!
Well, i put you behind the wheel of a deuce and a quarter, yes i did
Had you living like a rich man's daughter, yes i did, i sure did
While you were living high on the hog
You had me down here scuffling like a dog
Well, the very thing that makes you rich makes me poor
The very thing that makes you rich makes me poor
Don't you never ever make such a bad mistake
You know i'd rather climb into bed with a rattlesnake
Then to work hard every day bringing that woman all my pay
The very thing that makes you rich makes me poor,
Makes me so damn poor
The thing that makes her rich makes me poor
The very thing that makes you rich make me poor
Very thing that makes you rich makes me poor
Makes me so damned poor
Money won't change it, no no...

Beautifully unrequited

You do not love me
This I sadly know
Yet still I love you
Beautifully unrequited
In your absence
My love does not relent
However long its been
A day, a week or more
Since we last met
I remember your spirit
Your beautiful face
How wonderful you are
I embrace this memory
As I would embrace you
Only you do not love me
And this I sadly know
Is this love to forever be
Beautifully unrequited
