Well, I feel so bad - I wonder what's wrong with me
Well, I feel so bad - I wonder what's wrong with me
I think I'll call my baby, find out just what the matter can be

Last night I dreamed about my baby
I woke up and the tears were runnin' all down my face
Now, when I woke up - early this morning
The tears were runnin' all down my face
You know I was dreamin', that some other man was takin' my place

I said, I dreamed about you baby
I dreamed you didn't want me 'round no more
I said, I dreamed about you baby
You know I dreamed you didn't want me round no more
Now, That's the reason I'm callin' you this evening
Baby, tell me, 'cause I've just got to know

break:

I've been worried all day long
I just don't know what to do
I've been worried all day long
You know, I just don't know what to do
You know it may sound silly to you woman
But tell me that dream was not true

But tell me that dream was not true

Everybody's trying to say I'm wrong
I just wanna be back where I belong

World turning
I gotta get my feet back on the ground
World turning
Everybody's got me down

Maybe I'm wrong but who's to say what's right
I need somebody to help me thru the night

Everybody's trying to say I'm wrong
I just wanna be back where I belong

World turning
I gotta get my feet back on the ground
World turning
Everybody's got me down

Maybe I'm wrong but who's to say what's right
I need somebody to help me thru the night

There's distance between us
and you're on my mind
as i lay here in the darkness
i can find no peace inside
CHORUS:
i wish you were here
holding me tight
if i had you near
it would make it alright
i wish you were here
'cause i feel like a child tonight
there's rain on my window
i can count the drops
but i can't help feeling lonely
there's no way i can stop
(repeat chorus)
each moment is a memory
time is so unkind
every hour, filled with an emptiness
i can't hide
(repeat first verse)

There's no use in crying, it's all over
But I know there'll always be another day
Well my heart will rise up with the morning sun
And the hurt I feel will simply melt away
You make me feel, I just can't carry on
But I know I won't always be that way
'Cos my heart will rise up with the morning sun
And the hurt I feel will simply melt away
You don't have to give up
Why is it all wrong
Why don't you love me
Why won't you just be strong

When I see you again
Will it be the same
When I see you again
Will it be over
When I see you again
Will your great eyes still say
What's the matter, baby
What's the matter, baby
What's the matter, baby, baby, baby
What's the matter, baby
What's the matter, baby
What's the matter, baby, baby
So she walks slowly down the hall
There are many doors in the hallway
And she stares at the stairs
Ooh there are many things to stare at these days
If she sees him again
Will your very best friend
Will your very best friend
Oh, have been replaced by some other
What's the matter, baby
What's the matter, baby
What's the matter, baby, baby, baby
What's the matter, baby
What's the matter, baby
What's the matter, baby, baby
And the dream says I want you
And the dream is gone
So she stays up night on end
Well at least there is a dream left
If I see you again
Will it be over
If I see you again
Will it be the same
If I see you again
Will it be over
Again and again
Over and over

What's the world coming to?
What's the world coming to?
Everyone's gone to the moon
What's the world coming to?

Every night, every day
In this house filled with shame
I can say I care
But there's no one there

There's no truth in my life
There's no light in my eyes
And it's all I guess
That I'll ever miss

What's the world coming to?
What's the world coming to?
Everyone's gone to the moon
What's the world coming to?

I can jump right off and fall right into the ocean
I can come right out and think just what I say
But if I don't call for a reservation
They'll just turn me down
Turn me inside out

I don't say what they want
I don't do what they say
So I'm on their list
So I'm gone, I guess

What's the world coming to?
What's the world coming to?
Everyone's gone to the moon
What's the world coming to?

What's the world coming to?
What's the world coming to?
Everyone's gone to the moon
What's the world coming to?

What makes you think you're the one
Who can laugh without cryin'?
What makes you think you're the one
Who can live without dyin'?
Every little bit
Is there
To see
Every little bit
Of you
And me
What makes you think I'm the one
Who'll be there when you're callin'?
What makes you think I'm the one
Who will catch you when you're fallin'?
Every little bit
Is there
To see
Every little bit
Of you
And me
What makes you think I'm the one
Who will love you forever?
Everything you do has been done
And this won't last forever
Every little bit
Is there
To see
Every little bit
Of you
And me

It's not home
And it's not Tara
If fact do I know you
Have I been here before
This is a dream, right
Deja Vu
Did I come here on my own
Oh I see
Welcome to the room Sara for Scarlett
Welcome to the choir, sir
Ooooh
Missionary
Well I will be different
When I get back
And you can take all of the credit
You say everything's fine, baby
But sometimes at night
Where the first cut is the deepest one of all
And the second one
Well it's a worthless thing, so take it all the way back home
Take it home
Ooh, downstairs where the big old house is mine
Ohh, upstairs where the stars laugh and shine
Oh, oh well I thought that you were mine
Well I thought that you were mine
Welcome to the room Sara, Sara (for Scarlett)
Welcome to the choir, sir
Well of course it was a problem (for Scarlett)
Front line baby
Well you held her prisoner
And after all these years
Well as well as you knew her
In the never forgotten words of another one of your friends
In the never forgotten words of another one of your friends, baby
When you hang up that phone
Well you cease to exist
Welcome to the room Sara
Welcome
Welcome to the room everyone

I've seen so many things that made me wonder
But sometimes it's hard to tell
I said
"Take your time"
But no one was listening
I walk a thin line
They told me that I never would recover
Still some say they knew me well
I said
"Stay by my side"
But no one said nothin'
I walk a thin line
I said
"Please toe the line"
But no one was listening
I walk a thin line
I said
"Fate takes time"
But no one was listening
I walk a thin line.

Hey, lumpa sugar, you look kinda sweet
Cuter than a baby walkin' down the street
When I look into your eyes, I wanna leap
I can't conceal that you make me feel

Like a tiger, ooh, ooh, ooh, like a tiger
Ooh, ooh, ooh, just to see you smile nearly drives me wild
I wanna growl wow!

I'm feelin' stronger than a grizzly bear
Soarin' like an eagle flyin' through the air
When I get you in my arms, you'd better beware
I go insane 'cause I can't be tamed

Like a tiger, ooh, ooh, ooh, like a tiger
Ooh, ooh, ooh, just to see you smile nearly drives me wild
I wanna growl wow!

You keep my heart jumpin' like a kangaroo
Floatin' like an onion in a bowl of stew
Baby, every time you come in view
I run like an antelope to get to you

I'm your tiger and you're my mate
Hurry up, buttercup, and don't be late
I might get mad if I have to wait
Come right now 'cause I'm on the prowl

Like a tiger, ooh, ooh, ooh, like a tiger
Ooh, ooh, ooh, just to see you smile nearly drives me wild
I wanna growl wow!

I thank my God
For perfect love and peace
I'll hold her tight
And always
Mine forever
Love, love
So great
So divine
Trees - the grey day has changed everything
It's beautiful, just beautiful
So beautiful this first grey day is ours
My loving child
By grace of God we live, my child,
And love
I crawl to my knees, my dear love
Will you promise to kiss
My perfect healing hands
And fingers
And make a promise to me you will always obey
My each command and never, ever fail me
You'll be mine forevermore
The sun is here
My love
My love
My sun
Our sun complete.
God bless our perfect, perfect grey day
With trees so bare, so bare!
But O so beautiful, so beautiful!
The grey and blue sky
The world is here
Ours, just, justing, just ours
Our own
Hold us tight
I am yours, just a dream
And go on dreaming
May this joy of ours
Never ever cease
My love, my love
Pregnant sweet
Love is tender

All it took was a special look
And I felt I knew you before
I didn't mean to love you
Didn't think it would work out

But I knew we would be together
And I couldn't wait for more
But what can they say
It's not against the law

I don't hold you down
Maybe that's why you're around
But if I'm the one you love
Well think about me

I believe that you really want me
But it's not easy, just to give in
So let yourself go and let love begin

I don't hold you down
Maybe that's why you're around
But if I'm the one you love
Well think about me

I don't hold you down
Maybe that's why you're around
But if I'm the one you love

Don't look for no worries, worries and troubles come around
Yes, I don't look for no worries, people, worries and troubles come around
The world keep on turning, I got to keep my feet on the ground

Nobody saw me cryin' - nobody knows the way I feel
Nobody saw me cryin' - nobody knows the way I feel
Yeah, the way I love the woman, it's bound to get me killed

I loved the little girl so good, she made my low down butter come
Loved the little girl so good, she made my low down butter come
I need the woman so bad, I need her like the sky needs the sun

Once in everyone's life
You know a feeling has to grow
And you may be having a bad time
And you really shouldn't let it show
You're taking a risk, but it doesn't matter
'Cos you know, you know that it's real
I can't conceal the way that I feel
I can't conceal the way, the way that I feel
How many times have I told you
Oh, I adore you
And if it meant anything at all
I'd do anything for you
But it's too late and I know I'm making
A fool, a fool of myself
But I can't conceal the way that I feel
I can't conceal the way, the way that I feel

The sun is shining,
But it's raining in my heart.
The sun is shining,
Although it's raining in my heart.

I'm in love with my baby
And I hate to see us part

My baby left me this morning
I didn't even say goodbye

I had a dream,
I had a dream one rainy night.

Now when the day goes to sleep
And the full moon looks
The night is so black
That the darkness cooks
Don't you come creeping around
Making me do things I don't want to

Can't believe that you need
My love so bad
Come sneaking around
Trying to drive me mad
Busting in on my dreams
Making me see things I don't want to see

'Cause you're the green manalishi
With the two pronged crown
All my trying is up
All your bringing is down
Just taking my love then slipping away
Leaving me here just trying to keep from following you

Now when the day goes to sleep
And the full moon looks
The night is so black
That the darkness cooks
Don't you come creeping around
Making me do things I don't want to

Can't believe that you need
My love so bad
Come sneaking around
Trying to drive me mad
Busting in on my dreams
Making me see things I don't want to see

'Cause you're the green manalishi
With the two pronged crown
All my trying is up
All your bringing is down
Just taking my love then slipping away
Leaving me here just trying to keep from following you

Now when the day goes to sleep
And the full moon looks
The night is so black
That the darkness cooks
Don't you come creeping around
Making me do things I don't want to

Can't believe that you need
My love so bad
Come sneaking around
Trying to drive me mad
Busting in on my dreams
Making me see things I don't want to see

'Cause you're the green manalishi
With the two pronged crown
All my trying is up
All your bringing is down
Just taking my love then slipping away
Leaving me here just trying to keep from following you

Now when the day goes to sleep
And the full moon looks
The night is so black
That the darkness cooks
Don't you come creeping around
Making me do things I don't want to

Can't believe that you need
My love so bad
Come sneaking around
Trying to drive me mad
Busting in on my dreams
Making me see things I don't want to see

Hold on until the ghost appears
That day is going to last for years
Strange wind is going to blow through town
Lightning is going to strike us down

Blue hills are looking good to me
I go there when I'm fast asleep
Ghost town and the desert wind
Strange sounds at the world's end

And then the winds start to blow
And the fire comes scorching down
And then the sky dissapears
In the cloud with an awfull sound
And when you can't hold out
Then you run to the underground

Just a blue star hanging out in space
Earth town is a lovely place
Strange winds coming from the sky
Lovers gotta say goodbye

And then the winds start to blow
And the fire comes scorching down
And then the sky dissapears
In the cloud with an awfull sound
And when you can't hold out
Then you run to the underground

Look out before the ghost appears
Look out before the ghost appears
Strange winds

I do come from miles away,
Ain't got no place to stay.
Glad to help you plow your fields,
Farmer's daughter.
Might be just a couple of days,
Clean up, rest, and be on my way.
Thank you, madam, much obliged,
Farmer's daughter.
So long, got to leave your land.
Many thanks, it was might grand.
I do hope to see you again,
Farmer's Daughter.
Farmer's Daughter.

Oh I slept in a derelict
And I ate off the floor
I was wrapped in a blanket
As a knock came on the door
You can get out of here
Said a man in a raincoat
So I moved in with you and you loved me

Took a trip down the highway
And I spoke with my folks
It's a serious business
And there's no time for jokes
You can get out of here
Said a middle aged lady
So I moved in with you, and you loved me

Yes you loved, you loved me
There was so much at stake
Too much confusion
I'd had all I could take
No more get out of heres
From a man in a raincoat
Cause I moved in with you, and you loved me

Gonna stay out of New York
There's something there that drives me crazy
Gonna stay out of New York
There's something there that bleeds me dry
It gets so bad that I stop breathin'
And then the sun don't wanna shine
There's something wrong with New York
It's a prison without walls
No I won't go back there
I just don't like that place at all
You might call it sophistication
But I say time is runnin' out
I won't go back to New York
There's a darkness all around
No, I just can't handle it
You know that place is gettin' me down
You can say it's sophistication
But I say time is runnin' out

The Big Boat
(Eddie Boyd)

The big boat is at the landing
And my baby is waitin' to step on board
The big boat is at the landing

And my baby is waitin' to step on board
Yes, I know the little girl is leavin'
Oh but the reason why I just don't know

I was standin' at the landing
Crying sweet thing please don't go
I was standin' at the landing
Crying baby doll please don't go
Well, because you know I love you


Yes, I love you, woman
I love you with all my heart and soul

You know I got to find my baby
If it takes a lifetime to track her down
I got to find my baby
If it take a lifetime to track her down
I'm gonna stay on the trail of my little sweet thing
Keep her just like an old bloodhound

Everytime that you make me smile
it's the same old way it used to be
And that's enough for me
Everytime that sleep don't come
it's the same old pain that used to be
And that's enough for me
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, mmm, ah, oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, mmm, ah, oh
Everytime that sleep don't come
it's the same old pain it used to be
And that's enough for me
And that's enough for me
And that's enough for me.

Meet me down by the railway station
i've been waiting...and i'm through waiting for you
the train sings the same kind of blues
well i don't know why i always trusted
sometimes i think i must have....i must have been crazy
crazy to wait on you baby
well i turned around and got pushed down, baby
now i decided yesterday that i would leave you
i'm alright.........
CHORUS:
please...i've been takin' my time
you know, it's been on my mind
i hope you find a love
your own designs of love
that's alright.....
that's alright
i believe....i believe that i know you
'cause we've been a long time,
and now i've got to show you that i...
well, i never did beleive in time
you know...changin' anybody's mind
now i can't define love like it should be
that's alright....
that's alright....

Tell me
Tell me all the things you do
I'll tell you
Tell you all the things I do

Tell me
Tell me all the things you do
I'll tell you
Tell you all the things I do

Listen to the wind on the water
Listen to the waves upon the shore
Try to sleep, sleep won't come
Just as I begin to fade
Then I remember
When the moon was full and bright
I would take you in the darkness
And do the tango in the night
Tango...
I keep the dream in my pocket
Never let it fade away
Inside, outside
No loneliness in this dream
Then I remember
When the moon was full and bright
I would take you in the darkness
And do the tango in the night
Tango...

Well, she comes from Tallahassee, she's got a hi-fi chassis
Maybe looks a little sassy but to me she's really classy
She's my Tallahassee Lassie, down in F.L.A.

Well, she dances to the bop, cha-cha rag-a-mop
Dances to the shake, rocks the bunny hop, woh, woh, woh, woh
Well, she dances to the shake, dances to the stroll
Dances to the beat, she can rock and roll

She's my Tallahassee Lassie, oh, she comes from Tallahassee
She's my Tallahassee Lassie, down in F.L.A.

Well, she dances to the bop, cha-cha rag-a-mop
Dances to the blues, rocks the bunny hop, woh, woh, woh, woh
Now, she dances to the shake, dances to the stroll
Dances to the beat, she can rock and roll

My Tallahassee Lassie, oh, she comes from Tallahassee
She's my Tallahassee Lassie, down in F.L.A.

Oh, come on baby, come on darlin', come on sugar, come on darlin'
Yeah, she's my Tallahassee Lassie, down in F.L.A.

Come on baby, come on sugar, come on darlin', come on baby
Oh, she's my Tallahassee Lassie, down in F.L.A.

Oh, yeah, come on baby, come on, come on baby
Come on baby, come on darlin'
Oh, she's my Tallahassee Lassie, down in F.L.A.

Hey woman, let me have a talk with you
Hey girl, let me have a talk with you
Now you've taken all my money
What are you gonna do

A man's gotta give a woman
Everything she needs
A man's gotta give a woman
Everything she needs


Don't give that woman no more money
If that good girl don't say please

A man's gotta give a woman
Everything she needs
A man's gotta give a woman
Everything she needs
Don't give that woman no more money
If that good girl don't say please

Ride on - baby don't you wanna go
Ride on - baby don't you wanna go
Back to the same old place - sweet home Chicago

Well, do you remember when the steel mill shut down
We had to go in the country, mama, 'cause you couldn't live in town
Ride on - baby don't you wanna go
Back to the same old place - sweet home Chicago

Well, do you remember baby back in 1934
You had the nerve to tell your daddy
That you didn't want him no more
Ride on - baby, don't you wanna go
Back to the same old place - sweet home Chicago

Ride on - baby don't you wanna go
Ride on - baby don't you wanna go
Back to the same old place - sweet home Chicago

What can i say this time
which card shall i play
the dream is not over
the dream is just away
and you will fly like some little wing
straight back to the sun
the dream was never over
the dream has just begun
the dream has just begun.........dream....
my fingers find the ivory keys
ans a song begins to begin
like a wolf...on the run
and you will find
while in the wind
something that you lost
the dream was never over...no...
the dream was only lost
(hours and hours of waiting for you, so strong and so fleeting)
the dream has just begun
(and hours of waiting for you...in hopes of meeting)
the dream has just begun
(meeting this way)
well, the dream has just begun!
she remembers how good it can be...
he remembers a melody....
ah...in the shadow of my shadow....in a gleam...
he remembers how good it can be....
she remembersa melody.....
well...in the shadow of my shadow....in a dream...whoa....
(hours and hours of waiting for you...so strong and so fleeting)
the dream has just begun
(hours and hours of waiting this way...meeting me...)
and hours of waiting for you
(so strong and so fleeting)
the dream has just begun
(i'm tired of meeting this way)
straight back now
(hours and hours of waiting...so strong and so fleeting)
hours and hours of waiting this way
hours and hours of waiting this way
straight back
straight back
straight back......yeah!!
he remembers a melody...
he remembers how good it can be...
straight back
straight back
straight back......yeah!!

Every night that goes between
I feel a little less
As you slowly go away from me
This is only another test

Every night you do not come
Your softness fades away
Did I ever really care that much?
Is there anything left to say?

Every hour of fear I spend
My body tries to cry
Living through each empty night
A deadly calm inside

I haven't felt this way I feel
Since many a years ago
But in those years and the lifetime's past
I did not deal with the road

And I did not deal with you, I know
Though the love has always been
So I search to find an answer there
So I can truly win

Every hour of fear I spend
My body tries to cry
Living through each empty night
A deadly calm inside

So I try to say goodbye, my friend
I'd like to leave you with something warm
But never have I been a blue calm sea
I have always been a storm

Always been a storm
Ooh, always been a storm
I have always been a storm

We were frail

She said
"Every night he will break your heart"
I should have known from the first
I'd be the broken hearted

I loved you from the start
Save us
And not all the prayers in the world
Could save us

Every night that goes between
I feel a little less
As you slowly go away from me
This is only another test

Every night you do not come
Your softness fades away
Did I ever really care that much?
Is there anything left to say?

Every hour of fear I spend
My body tries to cry
Living through each empty night
A deadly calm inside

I haven't felt this way I feel
Since many a years ago
But in those years and the lifetime's past
I did not deal with the road

And I did not deal with you, I know
Though the love has always been
So I search to find an answer there
So I can truly win

Every hour of fear I spend
My body tries to cry
Living through each empty night
A deadly calm inside

So I try to say goodbye, my friend
I'd like to leave you with something warm
But never have I been a blue calm sea
I have always been a storm

Always been a storm
Ooh, always been a storm
I have always been a storm

We were frail

She said
"Every night he will break your heart"
I should have known from the first
I'd be the broken hearted

I loved you from the start
Save us
And not all the prayers in the world
Could save us
