Who Are You Now?
(b. hart/s. lawrence)
Somebody said tomorrow never brings nothing new
Wasnt that someone you?
Who are you now?
Dont I remember someone standing outside the door
Wasnt that you before?
Who are you now?
Who were you then?
Who mightve been forever you?
Wasnt it strange feeling a change come over you?
Who will you be tomorrow?
Nobody that youve been
Watching yourself begin over again
Who are you now?
And who will you turn to then?
Who were you then?
Who mightve been forever you?
Wasnt it strange feeling a change come over you?
Who will you be tomorrow?
Nobody that youve been
Watching yourself begin over again
Who are you now?
And who will you turn to then?

Living Forever
Im feeling so confused today
Theyve gone and changed the rules again
Cos in my life Im trying hard
To do it all so I can remain
Healthy and sane
Ill live forever, always one more tomorrow
Living forever, always one more tomorrow
I heard it on the radio
Too much of what they said wasnt so
And now weve got to do those things
That they thought before were so wrong
To be healthy and strong
And live forever, always one more tomorrow
Living forever, always one more tomorrow
I know we dont need you
I know we dont believe you
You dont really have the answers
You think you know better
You think it really matters
You just want to rule over everybodys lives
I think Ill change my life today
Gone are the times of taking care
And I really dont need a reason why
All I need is all in a day
Survive in a way
Or just till tomorrow, theres always one more tomorrow
Living forever, do you really want to live forever

It Wasnt Me
It wasnt me who shamed you
Its not fair to say that
You wanted to work I gave you a chance at that
It wasnt me who hurt you
Thats more credit that Im worth
Dont threaten me with the things youll do to you
It wasnt me who shamed you
It wasnt me who brought you down
You did it to yourself without any help from me
It wasnt me who hurt you
I showed you possibilities
The problems you had were there before you met me
I didnt say this had to be
You cant blame these things on me
It wasnt me, it wasnt me, it wasnt me
I know shes dead, it wasnt me
It wasnt me who changed you
You did it to yourself
Im not an excuse for the hole you dropped in
Im not simple minded
But Im not father to you at all
Death exists but you do things to yourself
I never said give up control
I never said stick a needle in your arm and die
It wasnt me, it wasnt me, it wasnt me
I know hes dead but it wasnt me
It wasnt me who shamed you
Who covered you with mud
You did it to yourself without any help from me
You act as I couldve told you
Or stopped you like some god
But people never listen and you know that thats a fact
I never said slit your wrists and die
I never said throw your life away
It wasnt me, it wasnt me, it wasnt me
Youre killing yourself, you cant blame me

If I Wasnt Shy
If I wasnt shy
If I wasnt shy
Id burn all the uniforms
Id burn all the ask me buttons
Id burn all the intercoms
Id burn all the time clock cards
If I wasnt shy
If I wasnt shy
Id steal somebodys cadillac
Id steal anything I lack
Id steal all the microphones
From all the masters of ceremony

To kiss you a hundred times
If I wasnt shy

Just Wasnt Love
Blame it on the blues you sing
Blame it on anything and everything
Blame it on a lack of faith or a twist of fate
til it makes you feel okay
Then come to terms with the fact
It was over because it was
Chorus:
It wasnt the time
It wasnt the place
Or my frame of mind, or the look on your face
It wasnt the road we were on
Or the days, though there were not enough
Sad to say
It just wasnt love
Oh, I thought that you were the one
Saw forever
It was here and it was gone
I needed a reason clear things dont disappear
And thats how I found the truth
Its just how the story goes
Weve been over it a hundred times
Chorus
Some things need no explanation
No chance for will thats free (oh no, no)
Some things kill every reason we have
To ever believe things are what they seem
It wasnt the road we were on
Or the days, though there were not enough
Oh, sad to say
Chorus
No, no, no, no
Baby, no, it just wasnt love
It just wasnt love
No, no, no, no
Baby, no, it just wasnt love
Just wasnt love
No, no, no, no
Just wasnt love
No, no, no, no
Baby, no, it just wasnt love
It just wasnt love

Touch Me In The Morning
(ron miller/michael masser)
Touch me in the morning
Then just walk away
We dont have tomorrow
But we had yesterday
(hey!)
Wasnt it me who said that
Nothing goods gonna last forever?
And wasnt it me who said
Lets just be glad for the time together?
It mustve been hard to tell me
That youve given all you had to give
I can understand youre feeling that way
Everybodys got their life to live
Well, I can say goodbye in the cold morning light
But I cant watch love die in the warmth of the night
If Ive got to be strong
Dont you know I need to have tonight when youre gone?
till you go I need to lie here and think about
The last time that youll touch me in the morning
Then just close the door
Leave me as you found me, empty like before
(hey!)
Wasnt it yesterday
We used to laugh at the wind behind us?
Didnt we run away and hope
That time wouldnt try to find us (didnt we run)
Didnt we take each other
To a place where no ones ever been?
Yeah, I really need you near me tonight
cause youll never take me there again
Let me watch you go
With the sun in my eyes
Weve seen how love can grow
Now well see how it dies
If Ive got to be strong
Dont you know I need to have tonight when youre gone?
till you go I need to hold you until the time
Your hands reach out and touch me in the morning
(mornings where blue and gold and we could feel one another living)
Then just walk away
(we walked with a dream to hold and we could take what the world was giving)
We dont have tomorrow,
(theres no tomorrow here, theres only love and the time to chase it)
But we had yesterday
(but yesterdays gone my love, theres only now and its time to face it)
Touch me in the morning...

I wasnt fooling around
Everythings true that I said
So take me seriously
Darling, please just take me

Chorus:
Laugh if you want to
But I wasnt joking
About this love thats so real
Is it surprising
Im romanticizing
About the way I feel
I wasnt playing around
Im not a kid anymore
Im not the clown
Thats just here to amuse you
I wasnt fooling around

It Wasnt Very Long Ago
It wasnt very long ago.
I met you,i saw you.
It wasnt very long ago.
You whispered I love you
Look at us now.
Crying our hearts out through the night.
Trying to remember what love was like, although...
It wasnt very long ago.
I thrilled when I kissed you.
It wasnt very long ago.
I cried when I missed you
Look at us now.
Crying at hearts out through the night.
Trying to remember what love was like
Although it wasnt very long ago.
Look look my eyes arent shining with love
And they wont.
Look Im not crying cause I need you,
Im crying cause I dont, oh
It wasnt very long ago.
I held you, so closely.
It wasnt very long ago.
I dreamed of,you mostly
Look us now.
Crying at hearts out through the night.
Trying to remember what love was like.
Although it wasnt very long ago.
It wasnt very long ago.
It wasnt very long ago.
Not so very long ago..

If It Wasnt For The Nights
I got appointments, work I have to do
Keeping me so busy all the day through
Theyre the things that keep me from thinking of you
(ohhh) baby, I miss you so, I know Im never gonna make it
Oh, Im so restless, I dont care what I say
And I lose my temper ten times a day
Still its even worse when the nights on its way
Its bad, oh, so bad
Somehow Id be doing alright if it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could make it)
Id have courage left to fight if it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could take it)
How I fear the time when shadows start to fall
Sitting here alone and staring at the wall
Even I could see a light if it wasnt for the nights
(even I could see a light I think that I could make it)
Somehow Id be doing alright if it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could take it)
No one to turn to, you know how it is
I was not prepared for something like this
Now I see them clearly, the things that I miss
(ohhh) baby, I feel so bad, I know Im never gonna make it
I got my business to help me through the day
People I must write to, bills I must pay
But everythings so different when nights on its way
Its bad, oh, so bad
Somehow Id be doing alright if it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could make it)
Id have courage left to fight if it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could take it)
How I fear the time when shadows start to fall
Sitting here alone and staring at the wall
Even I could see a light if it wasnt for the nights
(even I could see a light I think that I could make it)
Guess my future would look bright if it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could make it)
If it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could take it)
If it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could make it)
Even I could see a light if it wasnt for the nights
(even I could see a light I think that I could make it)
Guess my future would look bright if it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could take it)
If it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could make it)
If it wasnt for the nights
(if it wasnt for the nights I think that I could take it)
Even I could see a light if it wasnt for the nights
(even I could see a light I think that I could make it)

Save Tonight
Go on and close the curtains
Cause all we need is candlelight
You and me and a bottle of wine
Going to hold you tonight
Well we know Im going away
And how I wish...wish it werent so
So take this wine and drink with me
Lets delay our misery
Chorus:
Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow Ill be gone
Theres a log on the fire
And it burns like me for you
Tomorrow comes with one desire
To take me away...its true
It aint easy to say goodbye
Darling please dont start to cry
cause girl you know Ive got to go
Lord I wish it wasnt so
Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow Ill be gone
Tomorrow comes to take me away
I wish that i....that I could stay
Girl you know Ive got to go
Lord I wish it wasnt so
Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow Ill be gone

Leave Me To Bleed
It wasnt me that saw you
Standing by the neon lit door
It wasnt me that saw you
Clinging to somebody I deplore
Oh baby dont show your face
Dont move in my direction
Leave me to bleed
Love can be fatal
It wasnt me that heard you
Whisper a name Id never heard before
It wasnt me that heard you
Steal out to meet behind a secret door
I been suspecting
Done my own detecting
Leave me to bleed
Love can be fatal
It wasnt me that saw you
Pick up a letter fallen on the floor
It wasnt me that heard you
Say you couldnt love me anymore
Theres no mistaking
I guess Ive just been waiting
Leave me to bleed
Love can be fatal
I guess Ill just be waiting

Never Be Lonely
Got you by my side
Ill never be lonely
Got you by my side
Ill never be afraid
Never be lonely anymore
Turn away the fools from my door
Always wanna be your one and only
Never be lonely
Spent a lot of time
Waitin to find you
Spent a lot of time
All on my own
Couldve gone a thousand different ways
Watching my nights turn to days
Always wanna be your one and only
Never be lonely
Here in the middle of now or never
Finally found where I belong
I could go on like this forever
Looking at you, looking at you
Wasnt I the one
Love never came to
Wasnt I the one
So misunderstood
All because my heart wasnt sure
Never felt a love like this before
Always wanna be your one and only
Never be lonely
Here in the middle of now or never
Finally found where I belong
I could go on like this forever
Looking at you, looking at you
Got me by your side
Never be lonely
Got me by your side
Never be afraid
And I will not let you down
Keeping both feet on the ground
Always wanna be your one and only
Never be lonely
Never be lonely
Never be lonely
Never be lonely
Never be lonely
Never be lonely

The Touch
Written by ricky & marty wilde
Funny what fate can bring you
And the things that it can do
Funny how life can change you
When you least expect it do
I wasnt into anyone
I danced in a sea of faces
I wasnt into anything
But baby you know
Together were...
Chorus:
So right
The touch that I get from yous incredible
So right
The touch that I get
When I look at you
Maybe the touch you give me
Is the look I get from you
Maybe the spell its weaving
Is the way you feel it too
Maybe youll stop and walk away
Dont look at me to follow
I wouldnt run for anyone
But baby you know
Together were ...
So right
The touch that I get from yous incredible
So right
The touch that I get
That I get from you
Whatever it is weve got
Well maybe we could find out more about it
Baby well create this feeling
Anytime, anytime
I wasnt into anyone
I danced in a sea of faces
I wasnt into anything
But baby you know
Together were ...

Everlasting Love
He wasnt looking for a pretty face
She wasnt searching for the latest style
He didnt want someone who walked straight off the tv
She needed someone with an interior smile
She wasnt looking for a cuddle in the back seat
He wasnt looking for a five minute thrill
She wasnt thinking of tomorrow or of next week
This vacancy he meant to permanently fill
Chorus
I need an everlasting love
I need a friend and a lover divine
An everlasting precious love
Wait for it, wait for it, give it some time
Back in the world of disposable emotion
In the climate of temporary dreams
He wasnt looking for a notch on his bedpost
A love to push, pull and burst at the seams
Is this love worth waiting for
Something special, something pure
Is this love worth waiting for
Bitterness will die for sure
Something special, something pure
Is this love worth waiting for

Out On The Road
(hicks / lynch)
I wasnt there (I wasnt there)
When I was needed (I wasnt there)
I was out on the road
Playing with my rock and roll band (I wasnt there)
I should have been right by her side
Like a good man ought to be
But this rocknroll music sure gotta hold on me
I wasnt there (I wasnt there)
When my shack was burning (I wasnt there)
I was out on the road playing with my rocknroll band (I wasnt there)
While someone else put out the fire
I was wailing my guitar
Somehow this rocknroll music sure got a hold on me
Somewhere I know, I sold my soul
Sold it to the devil or the king of rocknroll
Once I found out, what the music was all about
Picked up my baggage
And I joined in a big rock show
I knew that I had to go
I wasnt there (I wasnt there)
There for my wedding (I wasnt there)
I was back on the road
Playing with my rock and roll band (I wasnt there)
But when I came off stage that night
I found her waiting patiently, good girl
She knows that rocknroll music sure got a hold
Rocknroll music sure got a hold
She knows that rocknroll music sure got a hold on me

Have You Ever Loved Somebody
(hicks / clarke / nash)
You say that you want me and now that youve got me youre gone
Think what youre doin or else youll regret what youve done
Dont come back tomorrow and say what we did wasnt right
Youll cry on your pillow and find it hard to sleep at night
Have you ever loved somebody
Dont you know just what its like
Hurting someone that youre close to
Have you ever loved all night all night
Remember what happened the last time that you said goodbye
Remember the saying that once bit and Ill be twice shy
Its no use me crying there is no denying its right
When thinking has ruined the feeling that we had to fight

If you hear people talking now
Will you laugh or cry
If you cry Ill sympathize with you
If you laugh Ill die
If you laugh Ill die

It Wasnt His Child
(written by skip ewing)
He was her man, she was his wife
And late one winter night
He knelt by her
As she gave birth
But it wasnt his child,
It wasnt his child
Yet still he took him as his own
And as he watched him grow
It brought him joy
But it wasnt his child
It wasnt his child
But like a father he was strong and kind
And I believe he did his best
It wasnt easy for him
But he did all could
His son was different from the rest
It wasnt his child
It wasnt his child
And when the boy became a man
He took his fathers hand
And soon the world
Would all know why
It wasnt his child
It wasnt his child
But like a father he was strong and kind
And I believe he did his best
It wasnt easy for him
But he did all could
He grew up with his hands in wood
And he died with his hands in wood
He was gods child,
He was gods child
He was her man
She was his wife
And late one night
He knelt by her
As she gave birth
But it wasnt his child
It was gods child

Im Gonna Be Alright
Its funny cause for a while
I walked around with a smile
But deep inside I could hear voices telling me this aint right
Dont you know its not for you
I always knew what I had to do
But its hard to get away
Because I love you
I just tried to stay
I used to say I couldnt do it
But I did it
After telling everybody that I wasnt with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes
I can feel it
And I know inside Im gonna be alright
I said I couldnt do it
But I did it
After telling everybody that I wasnt with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes
I can feel it
And that voice inside says Im gonna be alright
Friends of mine say to me
They say you got control over me
Youre not alone
I played a part
I saw the way you were from the start
Could I expect so much from you
You had a girl when I first met you
Did the best that you could do
Now I realize that I cant change you
I used to say I couldnt do it
But I did it
After telling everybody that I wasnt with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes
I can feel it
And I know inside Im gonna be alright
I said I couldnt do it
But I did it
After telling everybody that I wasnt with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes
I can feel it
And that voice inside says Im gonna be alright
Said I wouldnt walk away
Somedays I want to stay
But leaving you is what I need to do to be okay
Never thought it would be true
Me livin without you
But now its time for me to make a move
I used to say I couldnt do it
But I did it
After telling everybody that I wasnt with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes
I can feel it
And I know inside Im gonna be alright
I said I couldnt do it
But I did it
After telling everybody that I wasnt with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes
I can feel it
And that voice inside says Im gonna be alright

What Did I Do!
I was looking for something in the closet,
I was sure it would be there.
But to my surprise it wasnt there
And I had to look all over the world.
I was telling anybody I need to find it now,
Its very important to find it now.
I wasnt surprised that they didnt care,
And I had to look for it myself.
Where is it? where is it?
Oh, where could it be?
Why dont you help me look for it?
Why dont you help me look for it?
I kept on looking for the thing they say was there,
But I couldnt find it anywhere.
And to my dismay, I didnt even remember
What I was supposed to look for anyway.
What is it? what is it?
Oh, what could it be?
Why dont you tell me what it is?
Why dont you tell me what it is?
I was looking for something I knew was in my head,
I wasnt sure if it were dead.
But to my dismay, it was still there,
I had to close the door real fast.
What did I do? what did I do?
Oh, what did I do?
Why didnt I look in the closet instead?
Why didnt I look in the closet instead?
I was looking for my head in the closet,
I was sure it would be there.
But to my surprise it wasnt there
And I had to look all over the world.
Where is it? where is it?
Oh, where could it be?
Why dont you help me look for it?

Dress Rehearsal Rag
Four oclock in the afternoon
And I didnt feel like very much.
I said to myself, where are you golden boy,
Where is your famous golden touch?
I thought you knew where
All of the elephants lie down,
I thought you were the crown prince
Of all the wheels in ivory town.
Just take a look at your body now,
Theres nothing much to save
And a bitter voice in the mirror cries,
Hey, prince, you need a shave.
Now if you can manage to get
Your trembling fingers to behave,
Why dont you try unwrapping
A stainless steel razor blade?
Thats right, its come to this,
Yes its come to this,
And wasnt it a long way down,
Wasnt it a strange way down?
Theres no hot water
And the cold is running thin.
Well, what do you expect from
The kind of places youve been living in?
Dont drink from that cup,
Its all caked and cracked along the rim.
Thats not the electric light, my friend,
That is your vision growing dim.
Cover up your face with soap, there,
Now youre santa claus.
And youve got a gift for anyone
Who will give you his applause.
I thought you were a racing man,
Ah, but you couldnt take the pace.
Thats a funeral in the mirror
And its stopping at your face.
Thats right, its come to this,
Yes its come to this,
And wasnt it a long way down,
Ah wasnt it a strange way down?
Once there was a path
And a girl with chestnut hair,
And you passed the summers
Picking all of the berries that grew there;
There were times she was a woman,
Oh, there were times she was just a child,
And you held her in the shadows
Where the raspberries grow wild.
And you climbed the twilight mountains
And you sang about the view,
And everywhere that you wandered
Love seemed to go along with you.
Thats a hard one to remember,
Yes it makes you clench your fist.
And then the veins stand out like highways,
All along your wrist.
And yes its come to this,
Its come to this,
And wasnt it a long way down,
Wasnt it a strange way down?
You can still find a job,
Go out and talk to a friend.
On the back of every magazine
There are those coupons you can send.
Why dont you join the rosicrucians,
They can give you back your hope,
You can find your love with diagrams
On a plain brown envelope.
But youve used up all your coupons
Except the one that seems
To be written on your wrist
Along with several thousand dreams.
Now santa claus comes forward,
Thats a razor in his mit;
And he puts on his dark glasses
And he shows you where to hit;
And then the cameras pan,
The stand in stunt man,
Dress rehearsal rag,
Its just the dress rehearsal rag,
You know this dress rehearsal rag,
Its just a dress rehearsal rag.
