One Honest Heart

(david malloy, frank j. myers, gary baker)
Times are tough on an honest heart.
People dont follow through with what they start.
Lyin eyes looking at me up and down.
Makin talk thats only cheap.
Makin promises they never keep.
But I keep lookin for what I still havent found.
One honest heart.
That I can believe in.
Two lovin arms that will never let me go.
One good man that I can count on.
It shouldnt be so hard.
Findin one honest heart.
Now Ive been close a time or two.
I thought I saw my dream comin true.
But I was just livin in a fairy tale.
I wont play the fool again.
I wont play a game that I cant win.
But I still have faith and keep tellin myself. theres...

Why Do People Lie

Why do people lie?
Lyin only breaks their hearts,
And tears their lives apart,
Makin em cry.
Tell me why.
Even if I try,
Even if I lie to little babe.
I know shell never leave me,
Shell stay by my side.
Tell me why do the people say,
She aint lovin you anyway.
So while you keep believin it brother,
Shell keep makin her time,
Right before your eyes.?
Tell me why they gotta lie.
When I looked I had to look again.
In my eyes a revelation.
In her arms the fascination,
Of a friend.
(instrumental)
When I looked I had to look again.
In my eyes a revelation.
In her arms the fascination,
Of a friend.
Now I let em know,
When people say I told you so..
I say, learnin dont come easy, baby.,
Ive been makin like a fool.
Tell me why,
Why is it true?
Why?
Tell me why do people lie?
Tell me why.
Why do they lie?
Oh, why do they lie?
Tell me, tell me why.
Why do people lie to me.
Somebody here is lyin to me.
I just dont know whether to believe them,
Whether to give them an account,
To form a doubt, dont want to be counted out.
Follow your heart, babe,
Follow your heart, yeah,
Follow your heart, right on,
Follow your heart.

A Game We Shouldnt Play

(m&l - deris)
Do you believe in fate or chances
Design or coincidences
Would you say that all the people
Live their life for good and evil
Some have reached the end of patience
Start to play with gods creation
They know you
Control you
In a game we shouldnt play
Corrupt your heart
And make you part
Of a game we shouldnt play
We run blind
In a game we shouldnt play
Its all a game we shouldnt play
If we shall die now it will happen
If were good well come to heaven
If we shall live it will be so
End your life and youll see limbo
All is fixed and predetermined
Only time will stretch new sins
He loves you
Alarms you
Of a game we shouldnt play
He tells your heart
To stay apart
From a game we shouldnt play
We run blind
In a game we shouldnt play
Its that kind of game we shouldnt play
Manipulations on the genes
Nuclear contaminated seeds
Clone of the clone in the breeders zone
Its a game
A game we shouldnt play
We run blind
In a game we shouldnt play
Its that kind of game we shouldnt play

For you cuz you were wit me
Something let me thinking that whatever happens
This would be my home
But I was wrong (I was wrong)

I wrote a song all about it
(took a pen and wrote a song)
Wanna hear it, here it go, from now on

Cuz Im gonna be about lovin you
I wont talk about comin home
Cuz Im gonna be about comin home
I wont talk about both of us
Cuz Im gonna be about both of us
I wont talk about makin sweet love
Cuz Im gonna be about makin sweet love
Now I remember when we used the crib in studio 12a
Clothes and pallets on the floor makin sweet love night till day
Used to say I wanna have a baby boy and call him man
But now its all gone up in smoke and baby I dont understand
All I know that is I was wrong
(dead wrong, yeah)
How could I have stooped so low
(how could I have stooped so low)
I wrote a song about it
(wrote a song)
Wrote about it, here it go, from now on
Repeat 1
Now all the money in the world couldnt add up to what you did
Cuz when I was down and out you took the burden off of me
I never thoguht that when I took her out somehow itd cause me pain
I was rooming at the drake, how the hell you found my name
Damn I was wrong (I was wrong)
How could I have stooped so low
(how could I have stooped so low)
I wrote a song, yeah
All about it, here it go, from now on
Repeat 1
I wont talk about lovin you
Cuz Im gonna be about lovin you
Girl, open up the door and let me in this house, please baby
Im tired of banging on this door the neighbors say Im loud
Honey, I beg of you
Dont put me out
Dont put me out
Dont put me out
Dont put me out
Dont put me out
Dont put me out
Dont put me out
Dont put me out
Dont put me out
Dont put me out

Face To Face

(david malloy, gary burr)
Oh you dont have blue eyes.
I expected blue eyes.
Thats how I pictured you would be.
And you dont have long hair.
I thought youd have long hair.
So this is all a shock to me.
I didnt know if you would meet me.
Or believe me. when I said that I was fooled.
I really thought that I would hate you.
I know I meant to.
Thered only be one of us left when were through.
Chorus
Now that were face to face.
And I put myself in your place.
I see the truth. I see whos
Really to blame.
And I wont play his game. or try to get even.
Hell know hes lost watching us leaving.
I blamed you, but I see my mistakes. now that were face to face.
I believe in true love something to be sure of.
Isnt that what we deserve.
Theres no blame here, we both end up the
Same here. a little wiser than we were.
There was a time this would have killed me. and it may still be.
Hard to look you in the eye.
And now that all the spells are broken.
The truths been spoken.
My heart has the strength to tell him goodbye.
Repeat chorus

Escape

Hes just a young boy out of school
Livin his world like he wants to
Theyre makin laws, but they dont understand
Turns a boy in to a fightin man
They wont take me
They wont break me
No one could tell him what to do
Had to learn everything the hard way
Hes on the street, breakin all the rules
Im tellin you that hes nobodys fool
They wont take me
They wont break me
Now hes leavin, gettin out from this masquerade
Oh gotta go
Im finally out in the clear and Im free
Ive got dreams Im livin for
Im movin on where theyll never find me
Rollin on to anywhere
Ill break away, yes Im on my way
Leavin today, yes Im on my way
Just when you think you had it all figured out
Runnin scared can change your mind
I never knew I had so much to give
How hard times can fool ya
Oh Im okay, Im alright
Feelin good out on your own
Ill break away, Ill break away tonight
Ive got dreams Im livin for
Ill break away
Yes, Im on my way
Im leaving, leavin today
Yes, Im on my way
This is my escape
Yes, Im on my way
Ill break away

Makin Up

Hey you - whats your problem - I been mystified
You might come from a different city - your body talks just like mine
Some things get misunderstood - and we cant stop the fight
But theres one thing that we dont disagree on putting right
(chorus)
Makin up - makin up by makin love
Makin up - makin up by makin love
Hey I dont need to be teased - Im no suicide
You might think Im on the edge - just about to dive
Dont look back or turn around - when you say youve gone for sure
cos every night when talk gets cheap - you still come back for more
(chorus)
Hey little dream maker - you can stick the cream
Ive abused so many times - I dont believe in me
Its the best if I suggest - and you just try to please
Theres one thing we both agree - can end hostility

Hard Times For An Honest Man

One man does his work
Hes not satisfied not at all
Feels like that hes being used
His self respect starts to fall
His frustration
Runnin very very high he takes it out
On the ones he loves, because its safe
And who they gonna tell
And he hates that cold-bloodedness
That runs inside
Chorus:
Oh yes
Its hard times, for an honest man
Very very hard times
Hard times, for an honest man
Very very hard times
Sister,
Shes got a lot of pride
You can see it when she walks into the room
But shes young
And shes unaware
Of what a brutal world can do to you
So she loves a man
He lies like a dog
Tears her little world all apart
So the walls go up
For the rest of her days
And there aint no man can touch this
Girls heart
Chorus:
Oh yes.
Its hard times, for an honest man
Very very hard times
Hard times, for an honest man
Very very hard times
So we walk
From the front porch to the back yard
Just to laugh and say hello and
Say goodbye
But some days are hard, like a
Soldiers steel-toed boots
And the rent we pay to stay here
Gets high
Chorus:
Oh yes.
Its hard times, for an honest man
Very very hard times
Hard times, for an honest man
Very very hard times

Matters Of The Heart

By michael mcdonald
Broken heart, bloodshot stare,
Signs of a fool who cared too much
Now shes gone and he cant remember
How to live without her touch
Hopin to die but surely livin to tell
cause when it comes to matters of the heart
There is nothing a fool wont get used to
After all the whiskey and wisdom he could swallow
He thought it was time to start loving again
So he found someone and prayed his heart would follow
But he could hardly do more than pretend
And though she knew in her heart that his love was lie
When it comes to matters of the heart
There is nothing a fool wont get used to
Well, of all the things love teaches
Of all the ways that it opens our eyes
No more profound than the lesson he learned
The day she walked out of his life
When the road gets most narrow
Its then he remembers her smile
And he sees these words forming on her lips
Across a river of tears he once cried
cause when it comes to matters of the heart
There is nothing a fool wont get used to
No there is nothing a fool wont get used to

I Want You To Hurt Like I Do

I ran out on my children
And I ran out on my wife
Gonna run out on you too, baby
I done it all my life
Everybody cried the night I left
Well, almost everybody did
My little boy just hung his head
And I put my arm, put my arm around his little shoulder
And this is what I said:
Sonny I just want you to hurt like I do
I just want you to hurt like I do
I just want you to hurt like I do
Honest I do, honest I do, honest I do
If I had one wish
One dream I knew would come true
Id want to speak to all the people of the world
Id get up there, Id get up there on that platform
First Id sing a song or two you know I would
Then Ill tell you what Id do
Id talk to the people and Id say
Its a rough rough world, its a tough tough world
Well, you know
And things dont always, things dont always go the way we plan
But theres one thing, one thing we all have in common
And its something everyone can understand
All over the world sing along
I just want you to hurt like I do
I just want you to hurt like I do
I just want you to hurt like I do
Honest I do, honest I do, honest I do

Heaven

Oh - thinkin' about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now nothin' can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me comin' back for more

Baby you're all that I want
When you're lyin' here in my arms
I'm findin' it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it here in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven

Oh - once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when you're feelin' down
Ya-nothin' could change what you mean to me
Oh there's lots that I could say
But just hold me now
Cause our love will light the way

Chorus

I've been waitin' for so long
For somethin' to arrive
For love to come along
Now our dreams are comin' true
Through the good times and the bad
Ya - I'll be standin' there by you

Home Is Where The Heart Is

Ive always lived my life like a gypsy
I cant imagine myself settlin down
So please dont ask me to give up this life I lead
cause I love to feel those wheels go round and round

I can see it inside
Its my heart that sees, not my eyes
And if you listen close Ill tell you why
Home is where the heart is
And my heart is at home with you
Theres a cold wind blowin and you know its almost midnight
You never dreamed it would be this hard lovin a music man
But this iron horse on which I ride Im closer its true
And its just as hard for me as it is for you
I can see it inside
Its my heart that sees not my eyes
And if you listen close Ill tell you why
Home is where the heart is
And my heart is at home with you
In my life Im always on the run
Livin one day at a time
Hold on a little longer
I dont know where Im gonna end up
Or where Ill go
I can see it inside
Its my heart that sees not my eyes
And if you listen close Ill tell you why
Home is where the heart is
And my heart is at home ...
I can see it inside
Its my heart that sees not my eyes
And if you listen close Ill tell you why
Home is where the heart is
And my heart is at home with you
Home is where the heart is
Oh ,my home is where my heart is
Oh, my home is where my heart is

Seven Stars

Dont try to be anything else
But what you are
Dont try to do anything else
But the things you do
cause I had a dream
About seven stars
And the seven good things
That you are to me
The very reason Im livin
Is just for lovin you
And the seasons are changin
Makin it all come true
cause with the spring
And clearing skies
Loves soft light
Will fill my eyes for you
Who fills my head
With these dreams
As Im leaving my mind
Seven new stars are born
Seven are waiting to die
The very reason Im livin
Is just for lovin you
And the seasons are changin
Makin it all come true
cause I had a dream
About seven stars
And the seven good things
That you are to me

He'll Never Be

98 degrees he'll never be...(what i used to be to you)
I heard you found yourself a new man
And you say you're as happy as can be
No one can play the game like you can
But does he give you everything you need
But in good time
You're gonna find
You're eyes were closed
And your heart was blind
Now it's too late to change your fate
Cause there's no way he'll ever take my place.
He'll never be
What i used to be to you
So if you wanna play the fool
Then make that move
And do what ya gotta do
You'll never find
A heart that is half as true
I guess you really never knew
But soon you'll see
That he'll never be
What i used to be to you
Does he even have a notion
Of what you really feel inside
Are you going through the motions
Livin' a lie like you're satisfied
But late at night
You realize
There's somethin' tellin' you it just ain't right
It's not the same
Am i to blame
And when you're with him
Do call my name
He'll never be
What i used to be to you
So if you wanna play the fool
Then make that move
And do what ya gotta do
You'll never find
A heart that is half as true
I guess you really never knew
But soon you'll see
That he'll never be
What i used to be to you
I gave you all my love
What were you thinking of
Guess it was just a game
It's all the same to you
Too late to try again
This story's at an end
It's time for movin' on
Now what ya gonna do
He'll never be
What i used to be to you
So if you wanna play the fool
Then make that move
And do what ya gotta do
You'll never find
A heart that is half as true
I guess you really never knew
But soon you'll see
That he'll never be
What i used to be to you

Show Me The Way

Flying so high
Feeling so low
Fill my empty heart
Dont say no
Can I get through this night, with some lovin to show
Wont you show me the way to go--i dont know
Wont you open your eyes
I know you really care
You see these games you play
Theyre just not fair
After all the good times and secrets weve shared
Wont you show me the way to go--i dont know
I wanna take my place
I wanna take my place
I wanna take my place with the loved ones
Well I still cant see how things were meant to be
Love me even for one day Ill treat you like a lady

Wont you show me the way to go--i dont know

The Power of the Smile

You have a sword, don't you know?
You have a power, don't you believe?
You have a key, don't you sure?

Don't you know, by your smile:
You can be the fire ….
You can be the pen…
You can be the star…

Don't you know, you can be as you wish?
Don't you believe, you can be as you dream?
Don't you think, you can be the leader?

Don't you know:

Sweet smile can make date for two sweet soul…
Pure smile can play love song on some one's heart…
Honest smile can put the fire on your desire…
Optimistic smile can clear all the darkness…
True smile can paint the rainbow on your life…
Strong smile can put shining stars on your sky…

Its Not That Serious

Music: rodney jerkins lyrics: cory rooney, jennifer lopez, rodney jerkins, lauren dawson
How could you tell me that you love me
When I know you were just trying to play me
But youre the fool
cause I know how to switch the game up on you
And in the end I know who will lose
I played this game before
And I cant play no more
What do you take me for
Its not what you thought
So dont play games with me
cause I play to teach
And if you want to cheat
It wont be on me
Chorus (2x) :
Its not that serious
I never put that much thought into us
It wasnt that I loved you
I was curious
Who did you think that you were involved with
Now baby you should know that it aint that serious
It should concern you that Im always one step ahead of you
So that should let you know that what you do
I have done before, its nothing new
So run those games on someone who cant be fooled
I can almost see lies coming through your teeth
In every word you speak you make it clear to me
That youre playing wrong and your game aint strong
Ive been in this too long, so just be moving on
Chorus (2x)

Dont play games with my heart
I will let you go before you start
