Got nobody left to listen to
Got no promises to keep Something's gotta be out there Find a world for me out there No more livin' half asleep There's an island in the misty night Little platform by the track I dreamed I saw a light for me A face, a place so right for me That I'd never think of lookin' back Through the shadowland Like a siver band Got no kind of plan I ride the border train Somewhere new to be Light the way for me Moon and memories I ride the border train City jumps up like a circus Neon flutters out of sight The town itself is traveling America unraveling And swallowed in the hungry night Through the shadowland Like a siver band Got no kind of plan I ride the border train Somewhere new to be Light the way for me Moon and memories I ride the border train There'll come a time With no goodbyes When I'll simply grab That border train And at journey's end They will all be real My lovers and friends And I swear to God There's time for me And I'll live the life I waited for! Wooo oooo ooo oooo Wooo oooo ooo oooo Mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm I ride the border train Somewhere new to be Please light the way for me Moon and memories I ride the border train |

C'mon everybody open
Up your windows Turn on the music Turn on the music When I feel that this old world Is just to hard to bear People comin' at me left and right Day and night Here's the thing I do Turn the radio up Hear the melody Turn reality down There's too much talk about blues Too much of the time Turn the radio up Hear the harmony Turn the negative down Turn the radio up Everything will be fine Worryin' don't do no good So throw your cares away Come on people life's too short to stay Hey hey Everybody now Turn the radio up Hear the melody Play it all over town There's too much talk about blues Turn the bulletins down Turn the radio up Hear the harmony Don't 'cha be so profound Turn the radio up It'll turn you around Don't give in No matter what they say Out with the negative You find the positive way Hey, hey, hey Turn the radio up Up with harmony Pandemonium down There's to much talk about blues All over this town Hey, hey, hey Turn the radio up Hear the melody Don't you be so profound Turn the radio up It'll turn you around Turn the radio up Turn the radio up Turn the radio up |

I hear her playing music
In her room alone at night She just moved in a month ago She isn't gonna play the game I though she'd smile And come on slow I still don't even know her name She must like being lonely Got no time for anyone But I hear her play that stereo Right through to the rising sun I hear her playing music In her room alone all night Through the day she's so elusive Staying safe and out of sight If you say hello she lets it go Cool and so polite And I hear her playing music In her room alone at night Baby are you sad and lonely Or did somebody do you wrong 'cause I know that you need only Look my way And they'll play our song And I love your nightly music But you can't keep playing through 'cause I'm having trouble sleeping And when I do I dream of you I thought I'd try and break the freeze And win her heart with harmony So I answered back And played a stack of my favorite CD's But she just doesn't hear me Doesn't have a word to say So I stay awake and turn it up Hoping she'll look out my way I hear her playing music In her room alone at night Through the day she's so elusive Staying safe and out of sight If you say hello she lets it go Cool and so polite And I hear her playing Dave Koz In her room alone at night In her room alone at night Baby are you sad and lonely Baby won't you tell me your name I'm in my room alone at night You're in your room alone at night |

After it was over, after the crying
And all the angry shouting When we'd both just given up And you turned and closed the door I didn't know what was wrong Anymore than I did before Maybe it was over When you stopped trying Or when I started doubting Maybe you don't care enough Maybe I'm just scared you'll go But maybe what was really wrong Is that I still don't really know Talk to me quietly, peacefully Tell me what to do Talk to me honestly, don't you see I need to talk to you I need to hear that we're okay And say the things that I meant to say So talk to me before Before it's really over When it all was starting When I first met you We couldn't keep from talking I knew everything you felt And I felt you knew me too Now I'm talking to myself Or I'm just yelling back at you How this could have happened How I could lose you Or you could think to leave me After where we started from I'm too dumb I guess to see But you can't go 'till I do And you know You owe that to me Talk to me quietly, peacefully I don't wanna fight Talk to me nice and slow So I'll know How to make it right I'm not afraid to take the blame I'm just afraid we'll stay the same And we won't talk until Until it's really over I don't understand Why you're always mad What could I have done What could be so bad Don't you wanna know Why I never sleep Look what we've become From all these secrets that we keep When it's really over 'cause I can't take it Or you've walked out For the last time When these years are just a dream And these tears somehow have dried I can't wake up in my bed And regret what we never tried So please don't say it's over Don't even think it Just think about the good times Think of all we've got to lose And not who's done what to who And when it comes time to chose Think of who would still die for you Talk to me quietly, peacefully Make me understand Say what you need to say Find a way Take me by the hand The only thing I ask of you Is please, for once, just listen too And talk to me before Before it's really over Talk to me Before it's really over |

Freddie's got the dirt on
Everybody on the street Don't know how he does it But it isn't too discreet Everybody says It always winds up being true He's got somethin' on everyone Maybe even you! Freddie knows - oh yeah Freddie goes - "Oh yeah, I got the 411 in my head!" That's what Freddie said One night Freddie's goin' home He's had a long, long day When he sees big Eddie Running out the alleyway Freddie looks at the shadow Of a body with a shrug There's Slapsie layin' deader Then an ugly fire plug Freddie knows - oh yeah Freddie goes - "Oh yeah! I'll get the 411 to the feds!" That's what Freddie said (TALK) PERSONALLY I DON'T THINK THAT WAS SUCH A WISE MOVE ON FREDDIE'S PART IF YOU SEE WHAT I'M SAYIN' Freddie now has the biggest news He's ever had But Eddie knows that Freddie knows And man, you knows, thats's bad! 'cause next night Freddie's walking home Just like he did before Badda-boom! Badda-bang! Badda-bing! He won't be blabbin' anymore! See Eddie said - "oh yeah!" Freddie's dead! - oh yeah No more the 411 in his head That's 'cause Freddie's dead Now you know the skinny All about the scuttlebutt And the moral of this story is To keep your big mouth shut! 'cause Freddie said - "oh yeah!" Now Freddie's dead! - oh yeah "I'll keep the 411 in my head!" That's what Freddie should'a said |

Sailin' can save me
Or I drown evermore But I'm on the waves With you on the shore Nevermind One fine day In some bar by the harbor I'll find you There you'll be As you were Corner stool by the jukebox Waitin' for me I can remember Sweet child Gone a mile Swayin' your head To the crazy ragtime Sayin' "Hey, you got a quarter? Hey you look familiar Hey you got a quarter? Let's dance to the ragtime" Slow down Don't time fly Chased your smile To some cold dingy attic Now memories of a room we shared Heaven and home to me longer and longer ago I can remember Time's up Callin' ships all of the sounds Of a restless harbor You said "Hey you look familiar" Come on you remember Hey you got a quarter? Let's dance to the ragtime Sailin' has saved me From drownin' evermore But I'm on the waves And you on the shore Nevermind One fine day In some bar by the harbor I'll find you Boozy, scared Breakin' down Tellin' the bouncer be cool 'cause you're waitin' for me Like I been dreamin' That's you swingin' 'round Pushin' your way like a star to the jukebox Sayin' "Hey ya' got a quarter? Hey don't you remember? Let's dance to the ragtime! Hey ya' got a quarter? Hey don't you remember?" Why must I remember? Nevermind One fine day In some bar by the harbor I'll find you I'll find you I'll find you And we'll dance to the ragtime Yes we'll dance to the ragtime We'll we dance and to the ragtime Yes we'll dance to the ragtime |

Who is she?
This beautiful creature Insisting on being alone? It would all make sense If you could hear her on the phone: Hello, who's there? Oh no How'd you find me? I gotta go Don't wanna hear Another lie You tell me that you love me And you promise that you'll change You broke my heart This time we're through Now say goodbye Say goodbye Say goodbye It's too late to give it one more try You'll always have my heart I guess you knew it from the start But if you love me Say goodbye I take you back And then You go and hurt me I've had enough I'm such a fool I don't know why I've got to start my life again It's over can't you see This time it's done It's really done Please say goodbye Say goodbye Say goodbye It's too late to give it one more try You'll always have my heart I guess you knew it from the start But if you love me Say goodbye And the nights are gonna get easier That's what they say See, sometimes I don't even think about you I don't even dream about you Sometimes I don't even miss you Night and day Say goodbye Please say goodbye Baby it's too late to give it one more try You'll always have my heart I guess you knew it from the start But if you love me Say goodbye If you love me If you love me Say goodbye |

It was a hot night
The crowd was hangin' in the neighborhood Everybody there was lookin' so cool Everyone was feelin' so good Now, Mister Puente They said he'd be here by ten-thirty Said he was comin' back to his roots again To find some old friends The night that Tito played My life forever changed I felt my heart and soul come alive I felt it all Movin' and swayin' under the moon Prayin' to the rhythm of a Puente tune The night that Tito played Nothin' was ever the same There was Ramona She came uptown from Corona Right there on the stairway of the subway train We danced real slow (She was heaven to know) She whispered secrets The way she kissed me it was perfect We held on in the shadows of the city lights Oh, it felt so right The night that Tito played My life forever changed I felt my heart and soul come alive I felt it all Movin' and swayin' under the moon Prayin' to the rhythm of a Puente tune The night that Tito played Nothin' was ever the same The night that Tito played My life forever changed I felt my heart and soul come alive I felt it all Movin' and swayin' under the moon Prayin' to the rhythm of a Puente tune The night that Tito played Nothin' would ever be the same |

When I wake up everyday
I miss you And it never goes away I miss you People smile and while I talk and even laugh I'm not even half the man they knew Without you When I'm in our bed each night And I turn out the light Oh, how I miss you Little things reminding me about you Who will I annoy again, if not you? In my silent room sometimes I'll close my eyes And I whisper sweet good-byes You'll never hear Esther dear..... Fifty years, Esther and Joe Tell me how could this be so? Oh, how I miss you Was I there When you needed me to be there? Could you see There wasn't one day When you weren't my best girl? Though we both drove each other crazy I love all the love you gave me And you where all that mattered In my world Every day I love you more And miss you And I wish you knew That through the darkest night You are still the light That helps me find my way And I pray One day we will meet again And all this emptiness will end And I will kiss you 'till that day Though we're apart I'll hold you close Here in my heart But God, I miss you |

During the day
She's a full time typist At the computer And on the phone During the day He's an auto-mechanic Punchin' a time clock And livin' alone But at night In the dark when the sun goes down Yes at night Night is when they go to town! And they dance And she feels like Ginger Rogers They dance! He's got the flair of Fred Astaire They dance! As they glide around the ballroom They dance! And the world belongs to them When they dance! Nobody knows that she has this secret None of her family would ever connect All of his pals think he's shy and quiet Not in the world would they ever suspect That at night In the dark when the sun goes down Yes at night Night is when they go to town! And they dance! He's as cool as John Travolta! They dance! She's as hot as Janet J.! They dance! As they glide around the ballroom They dance! They forget about the day When they dance! And they dance! He's Antonio Banderas They dance! She's Ann Miller on the screen! They dance! Now the crowd is cheering louder They dance! And the night is like a dream When they dance! |

In my life
I have seen Far away places Wild and serene But nothing I saw Prepared me for The mat on the floor Saying "Welcome Home" Time flies See the moon rise As I'm makin' my way Through another long day But I'll go To a place I know In my heart I know There's just no place Like home Welcome home Welcome home To that place That's safe and warm Always a shelter From the storm I'm going home Welcome home Roll out the welcome mat for me! I'm goin' home Sometimes I remember All the days I never knew If I would ever make it through But just when I'd give up again I'd remember when the days Were stormy Home was always Waitin' for me Sayin' Welcome home Welcome home Where there will always be A welcoming light on Just for me When I go home Welcome home No place That I would rather be Than goin' home In my heart I know That someday when my time Is drawing near I'm gonna hear Welcome home Welcome home Where there will always be Somebody waiting There for me When I go home Home sweet home Everyone's smilin' just for me When I go home In my heart I see Somebody waiting There for me Welcome home Welcome home It looks like a Starlight symphony I'm goin' home |
