KISSIN' TIME

Oh, don't sell me out, only love.
You don't get it so well.

Please tell someone
Everything is gone
Dream less of me, less to guess on you
I felt so much
Every tick and tussle
Heart torn because it's a kissin' time.

So pass on by -
You'll never find out
I love someone else
Find your God
You'll find yourself
But, he falls
I'm confessing to you
Just my guess
It's a kissin' time.

He can't pass on you
Oh no, I see far right through you.

Please understand my kissin' song
Think for yourself,
It's a lesson, guess it's kissin' time.
Heart torn because
Parts of me I'd sell myself
Oh, just in time I'm assessing myself.

Someone told me
Keep on - hold me
Don't let go until I reach the other side.

Your time will come
Your time will come again
Your time will come
Your time will come again
Your time will come
Your time will come again
Your time will come
Your time will come again
Your time will come
Your time will come again
Your time will come
Your time will come again

Someone told me - keep on hold me
Don't let go until I reach the other side.

Your time will come
Your time will come
Your time will come
Your time will come

Time
Time

LOSING

You know I see you when you're sleeping
When you're all insane with dreaming
I can tell you that you been fighting, baby
But you've been losing

You know there's clearer ways of thinking
And there's quicker ways of dying
But I'm a sucker for your drinking
And now, I'm losing

I don't know who you think you're cheating
Or with whom you have been sleeping
But all the shit that you've been eating
Says you're losing

When I let my hate pervert me
And there's no more tears for crying
I'll just kill you if you hurt me
I'll kill you

You know I see you when you're sleeping
When you're all insane with dreaming
I can tell you that you been fighting, baby
Fighting hard and losing

Fighting hard, and losing
Fighting hard, fighting hard, losing

LOVE & MONEY

Is it a crisis ?
Is it a crime ?
Or is it a fantasy ?
Does it take time ?
Will it cost money ?
Will it mean love ?
Sure isn't easy
To get in the mood

Aha
Aha
Aha
Aha.

See you at the parties
You're never the same
Do you make money ?
What is your name ?
Where can I find you ?
Out in the night
Who are your friends ?
Are they dark or light ?

Aha
Aha
Aha
Aha.

Tell me the dreams you never told anyone
Gimme a break.
Are you really a virgin who's never loved anyone else ?
Or just a fake ?
Me I don't know what to think anymore
Don't know where to start
To sit here with you and talk about nothing
Is breaking my heart.

Ask me a question ?
Gimme a smoke
What are you drinking ?
Is it a joke
Well ain't it worth it ?
Or am I depraved ?
You hold your head high
With one foot in the grave.

Aha
Aha.
Aha
Aha.

MANY A MILE TO FREEDOM

Many a mile to freedom
Many a smile to tell
Ask my bluebird to sing you
From the heart of a wishing well

Call all my reindeer to graze here
Call all my grain to grow
Then together we flow like the river
Then together we melt like the snow

Many a thought unanswered
Many a tale to tell
Ask my bluebird to sing you
From the heart of a wishing well

If you should ask me the reason
The reason for life that we know
Then together we flow like the river
And together we melt like the snow

If you should ask me then give me
The reason for life that we know
Then together we flow like the river
Then together we melt like the snow

Few more miles to go, miles to freedom
A few more miles to go, miles to freedom
A few more miles to go, few miles to freedom
Few more miles to go, miles to freedom

MORNING COME

When will the morning come?
I wait in darkness so long.
Will the sun ever rise again?

Hours flowing over me
I wait in vain for some change.
Will light ever pierce this pain?

[Chorus]
Riding on a humming bird's wing,
Caravans fleeing from the East.
May the pilgrim join in the feast.

How will the morning be?
I watched the dawn in my dreams
And imagined the day for years.
Shall I feel warmth again
And feel it true when they say
That the day never ends in tears?

[Chorus]

Tell me please,
How will it come
This release,
A crack in the door.

Shall I feel warm again
And feel it true when they say
That the day never ends in tears?

Beyond and back of the wind
Little birds fly into the sea
Morning light shine on me
Oh, tell me please, how will she come
Surrounding me, the opening door?

[Chorus]

Beyond and back of the wind
Little birds fly into the sea
Morning light shine on me.

Riding on a humming bird's wing,
Caravans fleeing from the East

OOH BABY BABY

Ooh, la la la la
Ooh, la la la la

I did you wrong, my heart went out to play
But in the game I lost you, what a price to pay
I'm cryin'

[Incomprehensible]
Ooh baby, baby
[Incomprehensible]

Mistakes, I know I've made a few
But I'm only human, you've made mistakes too
I'm cryin'

Oh oh oh, baby, baby
Oh oh oh, baby, baby

I'm just about at the end of my rope
But I'll keep on tryin', I can't give up hope

That I'll, someday I'll hold you near
Whisper, I still love you until the day is here
I'm cryin'

Oh oh oh, baby, baby
Oh oh oh, baby, baby

Oh oh oh, ohh
Oh oh oh

PLAISIR D'AMOUR

Plaisir d'amour
Ne dure qu'un moment
Chagrin d'amour
Dure toute la vie

Your eyes kissed mine
I saw the love in them shine
But you gave me heaven right then
When your eyes kissed mine

Plaisir d'amour
Ne dure qu'un moment
Chagrin d'amour
Dure toute la vie

My love loves me
And all the wonders I see
But the rainbow
Shines in my window
My love loves me

Plaisir d'amour
Ne dure qu'un moment
Chagrin d'amour
Dure toute la vie

PROLOGUE

So my sister and I left Louisiana
Where the moon on the Mississippi is a-shining ever,
Like you always hear in the songs of Dixie.
We look forward to our home-coming?
And the sooner the better.

Anna II

And the sooner the better!

Anna I

It's a month already since we started
For the great big cities where you go to make money.
In seven years our fortune will be made
And then we can go back.

Anna II

In six years would be much nicer.

Anna I

Our mom and dad and both our brothers wait in old
Louisiana
And we'll send them all our money as we make it,
For all the money's got to go to build a little house
Down by the Mississippi in Louisiana.
Right, Anna ?

Anna II

Yes, Anna.

Anna I

She's the one with the looks, I'm realistic,
She's just a little mad, my head is on straight.
But we're really one divided being
Even though you see two of us
And both of us are Anna,
Together we've but a single past, a single future,
One heart and one savings account,
And we only do what's best for one another.
Right, Anna?

Anna II

Yes, Anna.

RUNNING FOR OUR LIVES

Move along staying close to the wall
Looking over your shoulder just in time.
Avoid the light, close your eyes
And put your hand in mine.
And put your hand in mine.

Are we in danger, or is it that
You think we might be ?
But I think I'd like to get out of here,
This place it frightens me,
This place it frightens me.

[Chorus]
Running for our lives,
At least we're pretending we are.
Running for our lives,
We never get very far. [Repeat: x3]

Stop pretending
This is a child's adventure,
The only way I can take it
Is playing the game.

Be quiet, there's a gate ahead.
Do you think we can make it ?
Will it be different, or just the same ?
How long can we keep escaping [Repeat: x3]
Into another prison ?

[Chorus]

Move along staying close to the wall,
Looking over your shoulder just in time.
Avoid the light, close your eyes
And put your hand in mine
And put your hand in mine.

[Chorus]

We never get very far. [Repeat: x3]
We never get

SHE

She lives alone with no one
Who can see she's unhappy.
She knows what she lost,
Still she is waiting for more.

She could be living in hell
And not know someone loves her.
What can she do,
What is she waiting for?

The day turns to night
He just can't find the right words to tell her
Twisting and turning and looking for
Something to say.

If you would let me hold you
I wouldn't walk away
That's what he wants,
That's what he wants to say.

What can she lose,
What is she waiting for?

He knows when she cries
And he saw through the lies that she told him.
She's dreaming and planning
Of how she could ask him to stay.

If you would let me love you,
I wouldn't be the same.
Please can we try,
Please can we try again?
