WHATEVER 04:49
you have got such a poison ability you can say those words that you say to me yes, I can curse the ground beneath you now you led me down the path to oblivion into a state of abject delirium and left me with no choice to talk about live the life you want to lead I don't exist, I want to leave I'm so confused I just can't breathe I'm better mad with all the world there's no point in being sane alone with no thoughts I'd wish to own Whatever... you can wallow there in the sticky stuff enjoy the glare when the going's tough I've found you out, I've no need to scream and shout I swallowed all but now I'll spit you out a bitter pill but one day I'll feel proud I've no need to think about you now it was good for awhile you could always make me smile I guess I'm really missing you in the calm of solitude I see your face I think of you

EVERY ROAD 04:15
can't cast adrift a certain notion but you're so easy on the eye I can sense a deep emotion that draws me there to your side I could journey many by-ways and talk the talk to someone else and deny this inner feeling want to share my whole life every road I travel down comes back to you I would follow any rainbow and every turning that I make will lead to you 'cos you're the sound of every echo you're the words to every love song and the key to every longing in my heart I could search so many highways and walk the walk with someone else but I can't fight this deep devotion just want you hear in my arms
3.
first thing in the morning just as the day is dawning you hear Lord Granville call your name he is old and balding forever drunk and bawling you loved his money and his fame fly, fly away go where you want to don't let your world remain the same shine, shine all day, 'cos they love you oh sweet Foxy Lady Jane and when you feel a something keep the old fool guessing stay out late and feel no shame they're waiting for you to give you what you value yes, old Lord Granville is to blame all aboard rise and fall you're so well-to-do to be playing the pinball
4.
beginning with the end funny how it goes and to never let it show bittersweet again the taste of longing grows with swallowed pride in tow make it to the other side once again eyes open wide here onece more's loves forgotten soul once again a glass mountain high there for you to surely climb one day that summit you will find so, don't be afraid if plans have been mislaid you will find your way and starting from the strongest bedrock you'll lay your building blocks where they are to stay
5.
yesterday's not mine to own yet can't plan the future by the past I steal if I touch tomorrow but it is mine to win or cast I waken with no recall when of before I went to sleep arrive at this dawning day then in a great hurry you're that something in my head just like a revolving wheel maybe I misread the signs you gave to me now I'm losing all control needs go where the devil drives my mind is on parole from a heart that just won't hide an obsession I'll never conquer like the crashing of the waves wherever I may wander it's for you my love is saved
6.
in houses all along this road there are people who I hardly know their lights are shining bright shining so brightly all I see's an empty chair where you were, your no longer there if it's time for moving on my heart's feeling heavy taken from a scene of Brief Encounter like two ships that pass into the night almost had a dream come true the nearly man and the cloudless view it's better to have loved than not at all see couples walking hand in hand how I feel, they won't understand only love can heal this broken heart listen to the trees, seem to be sighing gather all the leaves and start anew take my hand and guide me through open the door where the path leads to stand by my shoulder if I should take a fall almost had a dream come true the nearly man and the cloudless view it's better to have loved than not at all if all I see's an empty chair and where you were, you're no longer there let my light shine bright shine ever so brightly
7.
never love with all your heart for it to end from the start in such aching for it's done when it's begun and forever will run in forsaking to deny is better at once than to lie and to promise too long no sweet harvest of the soul we all reap what we sow here in time Love, love is the child the child of illusion now the mother of all the father of souls our maker somehow of all the love songs in the world you had to be in mine everything that occured felt like a lifeline I played the notes to your tune and cried to the moon no-one who's never made a fool of themselves in love will ever be wise to learn and to hope, to survive and to cope will help us realise first love, what is it worth.. if to prepare for a second spring? then yet.. only regret, regret for the first is what second love brings
8.
when the day is done and darkness falls in ghostly form the wings of night will call midnight is the noon of all our thoughts and wisdom comes with the stars now brought so shelter here awhile in dreams anew far from the clouds crushing in on you surround yourself in peace and feel so free for in tranquillity's such liberty here, in paradises' hall the answer to it all is to love forever more kiss, oh kiss it as it flies and to live for the sunrise
9.
don't let me be a fool again it's starting all over once more oh, baby it's you let me keep this moment when I'm knowing I feel its so sure yes, baby it's true close your eyes surrender to my heart if you're Bacall I'm your Bogart if there is love at first sight she's under my skin she's gotten everything from the morning time until the dead of the night she's under my skin sweeter than jasmine stronger than I've known before closer than just friends if I could read your mind I'd know for sure don't leave me second guessing anymore
10.
if I could say the words I want to say I'd share my feelings with the world I'd paint a picture of a home by the sea and walks together feeling free another time, another place so simple to say, so hard to face let me take you by the hand and hold you one last time let me see in your eyes the way you smile another time, another place like a songbird that sings in the trees by a river flowing slow we both know that our love was meant to be like a story when first told another time, another place can you save in your heart a place for me? like the warmth of the sun spreading all over you like the rain as it falls, I'll find you another time, another place when love comes and finds you and holds you no more searching evermore hold on tight feel the warmth of its touch for we all need it oh so much
11.
BODY CHAOTIC 05:15
when living's so borrowed and a pill's to ease the pain what path you have followed living for a moment gained you listened to the mantra staring at the ceiling all wild eyed so sacred The Tantra then you started to cry in the cheapness of solutions there's a clear retribution an unlocked door to the prisoners' identity in a mind of confusion bewildered and wasted how you long for the start again and let yourself be free
12.
LONELY 04:16
can't do what is right for doing wrong can't think of what to say until the moment's gone those "wait for invitations" never come can't seem to find out what it is you've done if you're feeling lonely don't let it show you've got to hide it and the world will never know they say you're crazy and act the clown leave those demons on your shoulder far behind if your days seem empty and darkness grows caught in the shadows and your spirits feeling low you search the far horizon for the light keep on smiling, everything will be alright
