"Make A Play For Her Now"

   
Words of comfort and love
Spoken in design
Turn cruel, unkind
You have your ready treasure of sin
And it all begins
With an innocent smile.

Go on...
Make a play for her now
While I'm standing here
I bleed so slow
You may never know, wo-oh.

Whisper she is safe
That you sympathize
The darkest lies
When you know right now you'll be gone
At the kiss of dawn
Your conscience runs clear.

Go on...
Make a play for her now
While I'm standing here
I bleed so slow
You may never know
Oh, and I won't make a sound
Hey, who am I to lay the blame
When it's all a game to you.

You and I misfired
Left me cold and tired
Hey love, it's alright.

Go on...
Make a play for her now
While I'm standing here
I don't keep score (don't keep score)
No not anymore
Oh, and I won't make a sound
Hey, who am I to lay the blame
When it's just a game.

No, in the back of your mind
The pattern's starting to unwind
And you know you're alone (know you're alone)
Oh, and you smile anyhow
When the moment allows
Make a play for her now.

"Waiting For You"

   
I get so restless here alone
That's why I call you on the phone
I get nervous, over anxious, lose control
Waiting for you, baby.

Lately I dream that I'm in your arms
When you're here I feel I'm safe from harm
I'd do anything that you want, babe
Anything at all
And I'm waiting for you to see.

You mean the world to me.

Stars and the moon
Wait for you in my lonely room
The warmth of the sun
Is in your smile.

Stars and the moon
Wait for you in my lonely room
The warmth of the sun
Is in your smile.

I get so restless here alone
That's why I call you on the phone
I'd do anything that you want, babe
Anything at all
And I'm waiting for you to see.

You mean the world to me.

Waiting for you
Waiting...

"Crash And Burn"

   
L.A. to Reno
Checking out the scene-o
Feeling so mean-o
Sometimes I wish I could crash and burn.

Winding through the hot night
Without my headlights
20/20 hindsight
Sometimes I wish I could crash and burn.

Crash and burn
And I never ever felt so lonely
Crash and burn
Can't look them in the eye
Just want to drive and drive and drive.

Going nowhere
And I don't care
Can't wait 'til I get there
Sometimes I wish I could crash and burn.

Crash and burn
And I never ever felt so lonely
Crash and burn
Can't look them in the eye
Just want to drive and drive and drive.

Fifty, sixty, seventy, eighty, ninety
Gotta be a place where they can't find me
Watching all those bridges burn behind me.

And if I can't see
What's passing me
Nothing can touch me
Well, I'll fly, I wish I could.

Crash and burn
And I never ever felt so lonely
Crash and burn
Can't look them in the eye
Just want to drive and drive and drive.

On my Philco
I hear an echo
There was a wreck-o
Yesterday.

And by tomorrow
They'll sweep the char-o
And wash the tar
And trouble away.

I wish I would
I wish I would
I wish I could.

"Hazy Shade Of Winter"

   
Time, time, time, see what's become of me.
While I looked around for my possibilities,
I was so hard to please.
But look around, the leaves are brown,
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter.
Hear the salvation army band
Down by the riverside, it's bound to be a better ride
Than what you've got planned,
Carry your cup in your hand.
And look around you, the leaves are brown now,
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter.
Hang on to your hopes, my friend.
That's an easy thing to say but if your hopes should pass away,
It's simply pretend, that you can build them again.
Look around, the grass is high, the fields are ripe,
It's the springtime of my life.
Oh, seasons change with scenery,
Weaving time in a tapestry,
Won't you stop and remember me?
At any convenient time.
Funny how my memory skips while looking over manuscripts
Of unpublished rhyme,
Drinking my vodka and rhyme.
I look around, the leaves are brown,
There's a patch of snow on the ground,
Look around...

"Everything I Wanted"

   
You were standing like a statue in the light
And it looked like just like perfection in my eyes
When I spoke I staggered from the flow
Once I touched I never could let go, oh, oh, oh
This is what I waited for

Oh, oh, oh
Everything I wanted
Oh, oh, oh
Everything I wanted
For a while

So we whispered every secret we could tell
And we painted lovely pictures on ourselves
Though we hid the parts we did not want to know
As the strength of our illusions took control, oh, oh, oh
This is what I waited for

Oh, oh, oh
Everything I wanted
Oh, oh, oh
Everything I wanted
Oh, oh, oh
Everything I wanted

I never know if my heart tells lies
Caught in a feeling I just can't fight
Thirst like a warning too
Then come back around
Turn the clock back around

Oh, oh, oh, oh
This is what I waited for

Oh, oh, oh
Everything I wanted
Oh, oh, oh
Everything I wanted
Oh, oh, oh
Everything I wanted

"Where Were You When I Needed"

   
Don't botter cryin'
Don't botter crawlin'
It's all over now
No use in stallin'
The love I once felt
I don't feel anymore for you
This time I'll even
Open the door for you

You walked out
When I was down
Well now I'm well off
And look who's comin' around

Where were you when I needed you
Where were you when I wanted you
Where were you when I needed you
Where

You're looking good
It's hard to fight it
There's no use explainin'
I've already decided
That livin' without ya
Is worse than without ya
I won't spend a lifetime
A-worryin' about ya

Things got rough
And you dissappeared
Now I'm back on my feet
And look who's standing there

Where were you when I needed you
Where were you when I wanted you
Where were you when I needed you
Where

You were so young
And you were so wild
I knew you were nobody's
Innocent child
The first day I saw you
You really got me
I thought I could change ya
What good did it do me

Things got rough
And I couldn't wait
Now you're trippin' back
But babe, it's too late

Where were you when I needed you
Where were you when I wanted you
Where were you when I needed you
Where

"My Side Of Bed"

   
I want to show you the picture I drew
When I was on the phone talking to you
I made a heart and I colored it red
'Cause I want you here
On my side of the bed

Oh woe, oh woe
Oh woe, oh woe

I've been dreaming since I was born
And in my dreams I see eyes like yours
I'll be the pillow where you lay your head, lay your head
If you'll come and asleep
On my side of the bed
Lay down
The sheets are white like the moon, my love
Dream with me in my room
Lay down
Lay down
The sheets are white like the moon, my love
Dream with me in my room
Lay down
I know you hurt, I feel the pain
Take my hand and come out of the rain
We all need to be comforted
You can get yours
On my side of the bed
On my side of the bed
Lay down on my side of the bed
Come lay down
Tra-la-la-la-la

Sha-la-la-la-la
Lay down (ooh ooh ooh ooh) lay down
Sha-la-la-la-la (I made a heart)
Sha-la-la-la-la (I colored it red)
Lay down (I colored it red) lay down
Sha-la-la-la-la (lay down)
Sha-la-la-la-la (lay down)
Lay down (ooh ooh ooh ooh) lay down
Sha-la-la-la-la (oooh)
Sha-la-la-la-la (oooh)
Lay down (ooh ooh ooooh) lay down

Sha-la-la-la-la (I made a heart)
Sha-la-la-la-la (I colored it red)
Lay down (I colored it red) lay down
Sha-la-la-la-la (lay down)
Sha-la-la-la-la (lay down)
Lay down, lay down (on my side of the bed)

"Tearing Off Your Own Head"

   
Who dries your eyes when you cry real tears?
Who knows or cares what an imitation is?
(Only you do)
You can paint his nails
Make him wear high heels
Why waste time altering the hemline
(Only you do)
Tear Off Your Own Head
Tear Off Your Own Head
It's a doll revolution
You can bat your lashes
You can cut your strings
Pull out his hair with your moveable fingers
(It looks so real)
But one won't do it so collect the set
Dress him up in pink ribbons
Put him in a kitchenette
(How does this feel?)
Tear Off Your Own Head
Tear Off Your Own Head
It's a doll revolution
It'll turn you around
It's a doll revolution
They're taking over
and they're tearing it down
It's a doll revolution
It's a doll revolution

"Stealing Rosemary"

   
If you need me
I'll be here
On my knees
On my knees
In the neighbor's garden
Where the light is growing long
Stealing Rosemary for you, my love
It's the tiny lies I tell
For you to please
You to please
Early in the morning
When the light is growing strong
Stealing Rosemary for you, my love
I'm Stealing Rosemary

Flowers crushing on my skin
Tuscan Blue
All for you
Caught in rain and running
Home to you
I'm coming home
Stealing Rosemary for you, my love
I'm stealing Rosemary for you, my love
Stealing Rosemary

"Something That You Said"

   
Everything in a moment starting where
Something you said is hanging in the air
Now I know my life is sweetening
Changing everything
Something that you said
Turned me from the inside out
Running through my head
Something I have dreamed about
And I feel so real
And it feels so right...
Showing you every weakness
And feeling strong for it
I used to run from real love
Now I long for it
Now I know what I've been missing
Since I've been listening
Something that you said
Turned me from the inside out
Lying in my bed
Whispering your name out loud
And I feel so real
And it feels so right
Something that you said
Got through to me tonight
Never so far you can't call me back
I'm never more than a single kiss away

And I feel so real
And it feels so right
Something that you said
Turned me from the inside out
Running through my head
Something I had dreamed about
And I feel so real
And it feels so right
Something that you said
Turned me from the inside out
Lying in my bed
Whispering your name out loud
And I feel so real
And it feels so right

Something that you said
Turned me from the inside out
Running through my head
Something I had dreamed about
And it feels so real
And it feels so right
Something that you said
