Pandoras Box
Born in kansas
On an ordinary plain
Ran to new york
But ran away from fame
Only seventeen
When all your dreams came true
But all you wanted
Was someone to undress you
And all the stars you kissed
Could never ease the pain
Still the grace remains
And though the face has changed
Youre still the same
And its a long long way
From where you want to be
And its a long long way
But youre to blind to see
Frame of silence
Of an innocence divine
Is a dangerous creation
When you fail the test of time
And all the photographs
Of ghosts of long ago
Still they hurt you so
Wont let you go
And you still dont know
And its a long long way
From where you want to be
An its a long long way
But youre to blind to see
When you look around yourself now
Do you recognize the girl
The one who broke a thousand hearts
Terrified the world
And all the stars you kissed
Could never ease the pain
And if the face has changed
The grace remains
And youre still the same
And its a long long way
From where you want to be
An its a long long way
But youre to blind to see....

Now That Youre Gone
(bernard edwards/nile rodgers)
My nights grow long
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
Now that youre gone
Im living my life all alone
Or hit by a blow
To my pride
But Im doing ok
I wont let you see
What this has done to me
I guess Ill just take it in stride
Come what may
My nights grow long
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
How can one do what should be done by two
I guess thats a crazy question to ask
I might seem happy
But dont be fooled by my appearance
Make no mistake
Im just wearing a mask
My nights grow long
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone
My nights grow long
My nights grow long
Now that youre gone

A Long Time Gone
Seems like forever and time left to spare
When I look out the window
And still youre not there
Youre a long time gone
Such a long time gone
Tearing down memories bitter and sweet
Smashing away til its all obsolete
Youre a long time gone, long time gone
Such a long time gone, long time gone
Youre a long time gone
Do I wonder why
Every day that i
Think about you still
And I always will
Did so much for me
Now I think I see
This I do believe
Feels more like a dream
Looked at the weeds in the broken concrete
Before the bulldozers waltzed in and killed the old street
Youre a long time gone, long time gone
Such a long time gone, long time gone
Door steps that shone in a bright summer sky
Lay shattered and wasted since our last goodbye
Youre a long time gone, long time gone
Such a long time gone, long time gone
Youre a long time gone
Do I wonder why
Every day that i
Think about you still
And I always will
Youre a long time gone
Did so much for me
Now I think I see
This I do believe
Feels more like a dream
Youre a long time gone
Do I wonder why
Youre a long time gone
You never did
I never said goodbye
Youre a long time gone

Long, Long Way To Go
You held my hand and then you slipped away
And I may never see your face again
So tell me how do to fill the emptiness inside
Without love, what is life?
And anyone who knew us both can see
We always were the better part of me
I never wanted to be this free
All this pain, does it go away?
Then every time I turn around
And youre nowhere to be found
I know I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you
Oh, I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to all I ever knew
To you, to you
From memory, there is no hiding place
Turn on the tv and I see you there
In every crowd theres always someone with your face
Everywhere, trying not to care
Then every time I turn around
And youre nowhere to be found
I know I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you
Oh, I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to all I ever knew
To you, I wish you everythin
And all the best that life can bring
I only hope you think of me sometimes, oh
And even though I feel the pain
I know that I will love again
The time will come, oh, and Ill move on
I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you
Oh, I got a long, long way to go, got a long way to go
Before I can say goodbye, before I say goodbye
To all I ever knew, to all I ever knew
I got a long, I got a long, long way to go, long way to go
Before I can say, before I say, goodbye to you
Say goodbye, say goodbye
Oh, I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to all I ever knew
Girl, I wish you the best I know, oh and all of the rest, to you
I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you

Like It Or Not
Ah, dont you know, Ive been on my own
But Im coming home.
And Id like you to be there,
I feel a little cold in the air,
And youre not anywhere.
Youre just another face, I used to know.
But there is still a chance to hold on to our love,
cos I gave you everything, everything I had.
Ooh, like it or not
You have done it this time
And like it or not, Ive had enough.
Ooh, like it or not
Theres a lot I could say
cos Ive got a lot on my mind.
It wont be very long
Youre just another face
That I once used to know
And I gave you everything,
But what have I got to show? oh oh
Oh, like it or not
You are out on the street
And like it or not
Thats where you will stay.
Oh, like it or not
Theres another thing darling,
Well I just could not stand another day
cos if you want to know,
That there is still a chance to hold on to our love
cos I gave you everything
Everything I had - everything I had.
Its been a long, been a long long time
Since I held anybody, since I loved anyone.
Oh its been a long, been a long long long time
But if Im right or if Im wrong, does it matter anyway?
Its been a long long long long time
Since I held anybody, since I loved anyone.
Ooh its been a long long long long time
But if Im right or if Im wrong, does it matter anyway?
Ooh its been a long long long long time
Since I held anybody, since I loved anyone.
Oh its been a long, been a long long long time
Im right, if Im wrong, does it matter anyway?
Its been a long long, long long long time
Since I held anybody, since I held anyone.

How Long Blues
(by leroy carr)
How long, baby how long,
Has that evening train been gone?
How long, how how long, baby how long?
Went to the station, didnt see no train.
Down in my heart, I have an aching pain.
How long, how how long, baby how long?
I feel disgusted, I feel so bad
Thinking bout the good time that I once had had.
How long, how how long, baby how long?
I could see the green grass growing on the hill;
I aint seen no greenback on a dollar bill.
How long, how how long, baby how long?
Youre gonna be sorry you feel so blue.
When you want me, baby, I declare I want, want you.
How long, how how long, baby how long?
Dont have no money for to ride the train.
I would ride the rugs, baby, to be with you again.
How long, how how long, baby how long?
How long, baby how long
Must I keep my, my watching point?
How long, how how long, baby how long?

How long, how long baby,

Youve been seen all over town
Playin the field puttin me down
How long can this go on?
How long, how long baby
Must you treat me like a fool?

Take The Long Way Home
So you think youre a romeo
Playing a part in a picture-show
Take the long way home
Take the long way home
Cos youre the joke of the neighborhood
Why should you care if youre feeling good
Take the long way home
Take the long way home
But there are times that you feel youre part of the scenery
All the greenery is comin down, boy
And then your wife seems to think youre part of the
Furniture oh, its peculiar, she used to be so nice.
When lonely days turn to lonely nights
You take a trip to the city lights
And take the long way home
Take the long way home
You never see what you want to see
Forever playing to the gallery
You take the long way home
Take the long way home
And when youre up on the stage, its so unbelievable,
Unforgettable, how they adore you,
But then your wife seems to think youre losing your sanity,
Oh, calamity, is there no way out?
Does it feel that you lifes become a catastrophe?
Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy.
When you look through the years and see what you could
Have been oh, what might have been,
If youd had more time.
So, when the day comes to settle down,
Whos to blame if youre not around?
You took the long way home
You took the long way home...........

Its Been A Long Long Time
Its been a long time...
Since I held you tight.
Its been a long time...
Everyday in this fight.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
Since I've had a kiss.
Its been a long time...
You're pretty blue eyes I miss.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
This Iraqi tour.
Its been a long time...
I miss you so and more.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
Hot days with freezing nights.
Its been a long time...
Sunburned face, mosquito bites.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
Had a real bad day.
Its been a long time...
Lost some soldiers today.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
I suffer everyday.
Its been a long time...
For me to be away.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
For me to be alone.
Its been a long time...
No talking on the telephone.
Its been a long...long...time.
Its been a long time...
Since you heard me say...
Baby, my sweet darling...
I'm leaving Iraq today!

A Long Way From Home
Youve come a long way from the runny-nosed and scruffy kid I knew
You had such good ways
I can remember the little things that always made you smile
They made you happy
Now you think youre wiser because youre older and you think
That money buys everything
And you think you need no one to guide you
But youre still a long way from home.
Youve come a long way, youre self-assured and dressed in
Funny clothes, but you dont know me.
I hope you find what you are looking for with your car and handmade overcoats
But your wealth will never make you stronger cos youre still a
Long way from home
Yes, youre still a long way from home

Tonight Youre Mine
(eric carmen)
Took me so long to get up my courage
Never thought shed give me a chance
Took her out and told her I loved her
Then she put my hand in her pants
And she said, come on, take me
I want your love to break me
Make it like its never been before
Because, tonight youre mine
Ive been waitin such a long, long time
For tonight, I got you all to myself
Tonight, I know theres no one else
Because, tonight youre mine
Tonight youre mine
She woke up at four in the morning
Whispered to me, lets do it again
I felt strange like somethin was missin
Love is always pleasure and pain
But I said, come on, take me
I want your love to break me
Make it like its never been before
Because, tonight youre mine, sugar
Ive been waitin such a long, long time
For tonight, I know theres no one else
For tonight, I got you all to myself
Because, tonight youre mine
Tonight youre mine
Was it somethin we forgot to say
That took romance away
Can it be that now the feelings gone
You know I cant be wrong
It took me so long
Because, tonight youre mine
Ive been waitin such a long, long time
For tonight, I know theres no one else
Well tonight, I got you all to myself
Because, tonight youre mine, yeah
Tonight youre mine, yeah
Tonight youre mine
Tonight youre mine, yeah
Tonight youre mine, yeah
Ive been waitin such a long, long time
For tonight, I know theres no one else
Well tonight, oh, I got you all to myself
Because, tonight youre mine, sugar
Tonight youre mine, yeah

Seven Days
I dont care if the rain dont shine
Oh, I dont care if the sun dont fall
You are the one in a million, child
And you knew that I would call
Thoughts of you alone with me
I cant slow them down
But I cant sleep at night
Because youre not around
I cant wait
Seven days is a long time
To be waiting for you girl
I cant wait
Seven days is just too long
To be without you girl
Ive tried every kind of distraction
But nothing will ease this pain
There is only one solution, girl
So why do you make me wait
Got to say I didnt think
That I could read your mind
But I cant sleep at night
cause baby youre on mine
I cant wait
Seven days is a long time
Oh, I miss you girl
I cant wait
Seven days is just too long
I cant wait
Seven days is a long time
To be without you
I cant wait
Seven days is just too long
Just too long

Im feeling rot
Im feeling rotten today
I ________ guess
I forgot I am shot
Im not o.k.
So long to pain,
So long to games
So long say good-bye
Someone tell me why,
Im feeling cold inside
Do I wanna, do I wanna die
Someone tell me why,
Its building up inside
Do I wanna die and
Kiss it all goodby
_______ Im a sinking ship
On a sea of bliss, Im not o.k.
I _________ Im blind to this
Is this just a test
To help me see
So long to you, so long to me
So long say good-bye
Someone tell me why,
Im feeling broke inside
Do I wanna, do I wanna die
Can you tell my why
Its building up inside
Do I wanna die and
Kiss it all goodbye?
Youre the reason
I would live......i hope that
You can give me this...
Youre the reason
So long to pain, so long to games
So long say good-bye
Can you tell me why
Im feeling dead
Do I wanna, do I wanna die
Someone tell why
Its building up inside
Do I wanna
Kiss it all good-bye

As Long As I Have You

Let the stars fade and fall
And I wont care at all
As long as I have you
Every kiss brings a thrill
And I know that it will
As long as I have you
Lets think of the future
Forget the past
Youre not my first love
But youre my last
Take the love that I bring
Then Ill have everything
As long as I have you

Fireball
The golden light about you
Show me where youre from
The magic in your eye
Bewitches all you gaze upon
You stand up on your hill and behop all around you
They wonder where youre from oh yeah
They wonder where I found you
Oh my love its a long way
Where youre from its a long way
I tried to understand you, I tried to love you right
The way you smile and touch me always sets my heart alight
Your lips are like a fire burning through my soul
And people ask me where youre from
They really wanna know
Oh my soul its a long way
Where youre from its a long way
Magic woman wreckin up my soul
Things you tell me have never been told
Magic woman I dont know
Electric before me I love you so I love you so
Youre racing like a fireball dancing like a ghost
Youre gemini and I dont know which one I like the most
My head is getting broken and my mind is getting bust
But now Im coming with you down the road of golden dust
Oh my love its a long way
Where youre from its a long way

So Long
You think youre gonna make me sulk, you and your fancy car, ah-ha-ha
But I can tell you honey your tricks aint gonna get you far, ah-ha-ha
They say that moneys got a magic touch
But not to me, it doesnt mean that much
You wont have me tonight
All right, all right, all right, all right
So long, see you honey
You cant buy me with your money
Chasing, dazing, driving me crazy
But Ill never be your girl
So long, see you honey
You cant buy me with your money
You know its not worth trying
So long, so long, so long
You didnt have to send me flowers like you did today, ah-ha-ha
I wouldnt keep a thing from you, I gave them all away, ah-ha-ha
The girls might fall for everything youve got
But Im not one of them, you know Im not
You wont have me tonight
All right, all right, all right, all right
So long, see you honey
You cant buy me with your money
Chasing, dazing, driving me crazy
But Ill never be your girl
So long, see you honey
You cant buy me with your money
You know its not worth trying

Just A Little Love
When I think that you got everything that you need,
you only ask for more.
You got dresses from Paris and a Jaguar car,
Nasty habits that no sheik could afford.
Easy money and what it buys.
is the loneliest kind of high.
If you ever just give it a try,
Just a little love (just a little love)
Goes a long way.
A little love goes a long, long way.
Just a little love (just a little love)
Just a little love
A little love goes a long, long, long, long way.
You bought a high-dollar house in the Hollywood hills,
the zip code of the stars.
Into nouvelle cuisine, candy keeps you lean.
The doctor takes your credit card.
In the emptiness of the night, when you never feel satisfied.
And you're missin' what could make it right.
Just a little love (just a little love)
Goes a long way.
A little love goes a long, long way.
Just a little love (just a little love)
Just a little love
A little love goes a long, long, long, long way.
Oh yeah.
Aren't you carryin' cash just a little too far?
What happens when it's gone?
Every pleasure gets old, like a river runs dry.
The things that last come down to one.
Just a little love, goes a long way.
A little love goes a long, long way.
Just a little love, just a little love,
A little love goes a long, long, long, long way.
Just a little love, goes a long way.
A little love goes a long, long way.
Just a little love, a little love,
A little love goes a long, long, long, long way.
