Merry Go Round

A lone carnival voice
Sings tunes of nobody's choice
And on a vacant lot, someone just forgot
Standing all alone, turning on its own
Weary merry go round
Grows slowly into the ground
And faded circus acts
Sorrow broke their backs
And their sadness cries from their staring eyes
Still, small children come
And bring the harm of play
Spirits, all alive
The drive the ghosts away
Useless merry go round
Tomorrow, they'll tear you down
To build a parking lot
If it lives or not
It was just a toy
All it brought was joy

Love To Love

Loves a thing that needs one to thrive on
Then it grows
At least thats what Ive been told
You cant love someone
If you find that all you get in return
A heart thats cold
Chorus
They say you need love to love
You gotta have love to love
They all say it works that way.
But if its true,
Why do I love you?
Why do I love you?
Seems like you keep trying to break me
You do things designed just to make me cry
And Ive heard if warm lips dont touch you
Love wont grow no matter how much you try
Chorus x2
Why do I love you...?

Star Collector

Think Ill let her keep on going
Where ever it is, shes goin, too.
Give her my autograph and tell her
Its been nice knowin you.
Chorus
Shes a star collector (collector of stars)
She only sims to please young celebraties.
Shes a star collector (collector of stars)
How can I love her, when I just dont respect her?
When everthing is goin my way,
She wants to be close at hand.
She moves to some other doorway
When things dont go the way she planned.
Chorus
It wont take much time before I get her off my mind
Chorus (repeat)

Early Morning Blues & Greens

By diane hilderbrand and jack keller
A distant night bird mocks the sun.
I wake as I have always done,
To freshly scented sycamore
And cold bare feet on hardwood floor.
My steaming coffee warms ny face
Im diappointed in the taste.
But theres a peace the early brings
The morning world of growing things.
[instrumental]
I feel the moments hurry on
It was today, its died away,
And now it is forever gone.
And I will drink my coffee slow
And I will watch my shadow grow
And disappear in firelight
And sleep alone again tonight.

How Insensitive

How insensitive
I must have seen
When she told me that she loved me
How unmoved and cold
I must have seen
When she told me so sincerely
Why, she must have asked,
Did I just turn and stare in icy silence?
What was I to do?
What can you do
When a love affair is over?
So now she's gone away
And I'm alone
With the memory of her last look
Vague, and drawn and sad
I see it still
All the heartache in that last look
Why, she must have asked,
Did I just turn and stare in icy silence?
What was I to say?

Tear The Top Right Off My Head

Walking down the lonely street
I need someone to meet
I run across sweet-looking you
Do you know what you do?
Oh, you tear the top right off my head
Blow my mind
Yeah, I'm going blind
Freaking out in the afternoon
Looking at a daytime moon
Talk to me, I talk to you
Do you know what you do?
Yeah, you tear the top right off my head
Blow my mind
I'm going blind
Sitting by the firelight
Coffee cups for two
Touch my lips with your fingertips
Do you know what you do?
Yeah, you tear the top right off my head
You blow my mind

Tear The Top Right Off Of My Head

Walkin down the lonely street,
I need someone to meet.
I run across sweet lookin you,
Do you know what you do?
Oh, you tear the top right off my head
Blow my mind.

Freakin out in the afternoon,
Lookin at a daytime moon.
Talk to me, Ill talk to you,
Do you know what you do?
Yeah, you tear the top right off my head
Blow my mind.
Im goin blind.
Sittin by a firelight,

Dont Wait For Me

Dont wait for me...Ill be a long time comin
Unless by then, you have told me something
To show how much you care
Ive done much more than as a man I should have
Why did you...not do all you could have...to show
How much you care?
Over and again Ive wondered was I wrong
Kept thinkin that I maybe shoulda come along
But there comes a time in every mans life
When he must be strong
And my times come
And if youre gone
Then I guess Ill cry and hold to memories
Of what might have beens
And when I finally leave
That will show how much I care.
(repeat)

Me Without You

Written by boyce/hart
I wonder just how long it would be
Me without you, you without me
We had a fight last nioght about something or other
But it cant be too important if wqe love one another
True love always seems to take a little bit longer
But every time we break up, we make up a little bit stronger
I wonder just how long it would be
Me without you, you without me
Let me tell you know
I wonder just how long it would be
Me without you, you without me qo
Me without you, you without me
Me without you, you without me
Me without you, you without me

Long Title: Do I Have To Do This All Over Again?

Do I have to do this all over again?
Didnt I do it right the first time?
Do I have to do this all over again?
How many times do I have to make this climb?
Didnt i? didnt i?
Can I see my way to know whats really real
They say time can fix things by itself
I know lifes more than just some kind of deal
Wont you tell me what all, when my soul comes off the shelf
Didnt i, oh, didnt i?
Do I have to do this all over again?
Didnt I do it right the first time?
Do I have to do this all over again?
How many times do I have to make this climb?
Didnt i? ...
