You walked into the party

Don't you? You had me several years ago When I was still quite naive Well, you said that we made such a pretty pair And that you would never leave But you gave away the things you loved And one of them was me I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee Clouds in my coffee, and You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain I'll bet you think this song is about you Don't you?

Well, I hear you went up to Saratoga And your horse naturally won Then you flew your Lear jet up to Nova Scotia To see the total eclipse of the sun Well, you're where you should be all the time And when you're not, you're with Some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend Wife of a close friend, and You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain I'll bet you think this song is about you Don't you?

Well I spent all night alone with you
And you weren't even there Your eyes burned on me like the midnight sun And somewhere in the night I knew How much I really cared 'Cause you're the one You're the one For me you are the one I tried to keep my distance afraid of striking out But protect myself from life is all I've done So I got to tell you now Before another night goes by That you're the one, you're the one For me you are the one And sometimes it hits you right away And sometimes it takes awhile Oh but now that you've crept up on me There's nothing I can do to stay away from you though Lord I've tried to keep it down But resistance only moves it to the front So I got to tell you now and not worry what you'll say 'Cause you're the one You're the one For me you are the one |

'I'm in love with him? she said With all the innocence of tender years But somewhere down the road ahead I could see the same eyes Filled with bitter tears I had the inclination To tell her not to drop her guard To tell her that life can be hard But I didn't have the heart (Chorus) You have to hurt - to understand You have to get by the best you can Until you hurt - until you cry You won't know about love And the reason you're alive You have to hurt She said, 'I know he'll never leave me I never felt it deep inside like this before? It was good to see her, believe me But I couldn't stand to hear this anymore All that expectation Too naive to really see Maybe she knew better than me It was better just to let her be (Chorus) Little sister, you're so sweet Thinking love runs smooth You don't know the half of it We laugh until we lose There's no way around it (Chorus) |

What good is the scheming
The planning and dreaming That comes with each new love affair The love that you cherish So often might perish And leave you with castles in air When you're alone Who cares for starlit skies When you're alone The magic moonlight dies At break of dawn There is no sunrise When your lover has gone What lonely hours The evening shadows bring What lonely hours With memories lingering Like faded flowers Life can't mean anything When your lover has gone When your lover's gone When your lover has gone |

I know that when we're together our hearts fall into line And I know why I'm afraid, this is my first time And the stars will be quiet while I sing you this song And I know I've been here before, and all day long "Why," he says, "run away from faded prayers?" "Are you so scared that we might not get along?" Shy, she is, weary to speak of love And too tired to sleep, too tired to dream I know that when we're together our hearts will fall in line And I know why you're afraid, this is your first time And our hearts will be quiet while I sing you this song And I know I've been here before, and all day long Winter comes, brings with it its shortened days Leaves us less time in between deep nights And she stays because there's no time to wait And the morning stillness still leaves no time for the light I know that when we're together our hearts will fall in line I know why we're afraid, this is our first time Our hearts will be quiet while I sing you this song And I know I've been here before, and all along I know I've been here before, and all along All day long, and all along. all along... |

There they are
Smiling so wide Like there´s nothing to lose And nothing to hide They look forward with innocence She is his bride The future´s a radiant blur So I wonder whatever became of him Whatever became of her? A little boutique On the Upper East Side Picture a couple so dignified Two hat boxes fall And feathers collide Darling tell me Which one do you prefer? Well I wonder whatever became of him Whatever became of her? Everything breaks Except the broken plates Everything gets stolen Except the things You don´t want anyway The things you don´t want anyway She played the piano And he used to smoke She used to slap her own thigh When he made a joke He started her heart Whenever he spoke His own turning cold, like a bird Well I wonder whatever became of him Whatever became of her? I want to say, "No, go back, resist Don´t step out of the photograph Don´t hurt yourselves Stay innocent Don´t hurt yourselves“ Two shadows playing Across the lawn Is it tomorrow´s twilight Or yesterday´s dawn? You can hardly make out What they´ve got on But they´re mighty in love, you´ll agree So I wonder whatever became of him Whatever became of me? |

I know I'm not what you wanted Not what you had in mind And I didn't come close To the mark You'd set For the girl you'd planned to find You've never seen me cry We shared but idle words And a casual goodbye And what shall we do with the child Who's got your eyes My hair And your smile Reminding me that we fell in love But just for a little while You never asked about the girl you never knew And while she was sleeping in my arms She never asked about you Without you seems the only way But time has passed and now She'll soon be asking questions And she'll ask about you And how Shall I say to the child Who's got your eyes, my hair, your smile Reminding me that we fell in love But just for a little while What shall we do with the child Who's got your eyes, my hair, your smile |

I've lived in all of the houses he's built The one in the air The one underground The one on the water The one in the sand He says: It doesn't matter how we live He says: It doesn't matter where we live We're so close we can dispense with houses We don't need a home at all It's come to be a habit with me to dine alone You're never home And the evenings end so early He says: we can be close from afar He says: the closest people always are We're so close that in our separation, There's no distance at all. Sometimes I gout to the car, Turn on the headlights Intending to leave- Sometimes I need to hear the words, My imagination's not as strong as you'd believe- But I've talked to you; You haven't listened at all. I've said I'm numb, I can't even cry, I'm stuck with acting out a part. He says: what do words ever reveal? He says: in speaking one can be so false- We're so close we have a silent language, We don't need words at all. There's a husky voice That speaks to me in the dark And on the phone from studios And Westside bars, Through tunnels of long distance. He says: we're beyond flowers He says: We're beyond compliments- We're so close we can dispense with love We don't need love at all. |

We have no secrets
We tell each other everything About the lovers in the past And why they didn't last We share a cast of characters from A to Z We know each other's fantasies And though we know each other better when we explore Sometimes I wish Often I wish That I never knew some of those secrets of yours The water was cold The beach was empty but for one Now you were lying in the sun Wanting and needing no-one Then some child came, you never asked for her to come She drank a pint of your rum And later when you told me You said she was a bore Sometimes I wish Often I wish That I never knew some of those secrets of yours In the name of honesty, in the name of what is fair You always answer my questions But they don't always answer my prayers And though I know you say that it's me that you adore Sometimes I wish Often I wish That I never, never, never knew Some of those secrets of yours Some of those secrets of yours Some of those secrets of yours We have no secrets Telling each other most everything now |

Something's going down like a waterfall Some strong feeling's some old love I saw you and it made no sense at all Now I feel like there's too much caffeine in my blood Like a waterfall goin' down Like a waterfall washing me down Spinnin' me around Lord, and I'm drownin' Like a waterfall going down Just like a waterfall washing me down Like a waterfall going down and down and down You're an old lover making new contact Making those cold defenses melt And though lying in your arms is after the fact Once again I'm feeling like I've never felt it's like a waterfall going down Like a waterfall washing me down Spinnin'me round Lord, and I'm drowning Like a waterfall going down Just like a waterfall washing me down Like a waterfall going down and down and down |

An occasional joint, a glass or two of beer Still I would never have guessed that you'd wind up here In a half-way house, on a dead-end street In a run-down part of a one-horse town But just do what they say, don't worry 'bout your girl 'Cause I won't run away, and I won't run around And I won't let you down, and without a doubt I'll be waiting, waiting Waiting at the gate when they let you out You set the world on fire, dancing after dark Now you're playing solitaire in a fenced-in park I'm not the one to judge you, so baby don't be scared No one gets a free ride, none of us is spared I'll be back on the ninth, I've circled the date Three o'clock sharp, and I won't be late You've been through hell I know what that's all about And I'll be waiting, waiting Waiting at the gate when they let you out The doctors have so little faith They say you were a classic case They said the chance is eight in ten They'd see you back in here again But I'm counting on you to prove the doctors wrong I'm imagining you, healthy and strong Your papers all stamped, your eyes so bright and blue Looking like a baby picture of you Walking down the path, your suitcase in your hand The howling at your back, a brand new man Be a perfect little camper, be a brave little scout And I'll be waiting waiting Waiting at the gate when they let you out... |

That's dangerous driving baby, The policeman said. I can smell the passion of another man on your breath I could give you life, get you back for what I saw That's vengeance he said, that's the law You throw your misdemeanors right up in my face The kind of man I am, I got to put you right in your lace I should lock you up, getyou back for what I saw That's vengeance he said, that's the law That's vengeance, Oh that's vengeance Yeah that's vengeance he said, that's the law You've taken your half out of the middle Time and time again But now I'm damned if I'll give you and itch Till I get even She said: Just because you're stronger and you hold it over me I'll put the pedal to the floor, and prove to you that I'm free Though you've stopped me once again, It's not the end of the war It's vengeance she said, that's the law That's vengeance, that's vengeance she said, That's the law |

Here we are, out of cigarettes
Holding hands and yawning, see how late it gets Two sleepy people by dawn's early light Too much in love to say goodnight Here we are, in the cozy chair Pickin' on a wishbone, from the frigidaire Two sleepy people with nothing to say But too much in love to break away Do you remember, the nights we used to linger in the hall Your father didn't like me at all Do you remember the reason why we married in the fall To rent this little nest, get a bit of rest Who will ....... Here we are just about the same Foggy little fella, drowsy little dame Two sleepy people by dawn's early light And so much in love, so much in love Too much in love to say, too much to say, to say |

Two little sisters gazing at the sea,
Imagining what their futures will be. The older one says, as her eyes look around, "I will go as far as the corners of the town. I'll plant a little garden, flowers everywhere. And pluck the most fragrant for my hair." Two little sisters gazing at the sea, Imagining what their futures will be. The younger one stands with her eyes open wide. And says, "I'll go as far as the corners of the sky. I'll gather all the stars each night as they appear, And pick the very brightest one to wear in my ear." I didn't choose you and you didn't choose me. I didn't choose you, who would guess we're from the same family? But, what will you do when the nights get cold? When the stars grow dim and your dreams seem old. Watcha gonna do when winter calls, And your flowers fall from the garden walls? I'll come home to you, you'll come home to me. My love will be your remedy. I'll choose you and you'll choose me. We'll be two daughters dancing by the edge of the sea. |

It happened last night we were feeling adventurous
We put on our heels and went out for a walk More for a drink and to have a few eyes on us Jenny and I slipped to town for some talk Me and Jenny, twinklin' like crystal and pennies Two hot girls on a hot summer night Looking for love “Look Jenny” I said “It's Dwight he just came in” I got excited but Jenny was quick The kettle was on and it started up steamin' And I knew from her flirtin' she was up to her tricks Me and Jenny, twinklin' like crystal and pennies Two hot girls on a hot summer night Looking for love A song on the jukebox made me feel lonely The kettle boiled down and evaporated me But who was to notice ‘cause Jenny was glowin' And Dwight was all over her like a honey bee Me and Jenny, twinklin' like crystal and pennies Two hot girls on a hot summer night Looking for love Maybe I shouldn't have worn such a long dress Maybe he thinks I'm too young or too old If only I hadn't been born with these sad eyes Perhaps I'm too shy or too bold Me and Jenny, twinklin' like crystal and pennies Two hot girls on a hot summer night Looking for love “Thanks for introducing us” Said Dwight polite And I waved goodnight I wondered why it wasn't me I guess it's just that the time's not right Two hot girls on a hot summer night |

How can we know the fate of the earth?
Must everything go from bad to worse? How can we be just along for the ride? We'd rather believe that we decide That we can stand here And say loud and clear Here comes the turn of the tide Here comes the turn Here comes the turn Here comes the turn of the tide We cannot go on sounding alarms And rattling swords and building bombs And fouling the air and the streams underground We've got to begin to turn it around It's our right to be heard Our right to decide Here comes the turn of the tide Here comes the turn Here comes the turn Here comes the turn of the tide As low as we've gone Now the ocean is calm And here comes the turn of the tide It's time to be heard It's time to decide Here comes the turn of the tide Here comes the turn Here comes the turn Here comes the turn of the tide Here comes the turn Here comes the turn Here comes the turn of the tide Here comes the turn Here comes the turn Here comes the turn of the tide Here comes the turn Here comes the turn Here comes the turn of the tide |

If you want to be brave And reach for the top of the sky And the farthest point on the horizon Do you know who you'll meet there Great soldiers and seafarers, Artists and dreamers Who need to be close, close to the light They need to be in danger of burning by fire And I, I want to get there I, I want to be one One who is touched by the sun, One who is touched by the sun Often I want to walk The safe side of the street And lull myself to sleep And dull my pain But deep down inside I know I've got to learn from the greats, Earn my right to be living, Let my wings of desire Soar over the night I need to let them say "She must have been mad" And I, I want to get there I, I want to be one One who is touched by the sun, One who is touched by the sun I've got to learn from the greats, Earn my right to be living, With every breath that I take, Every heartbeat And I, I want to get there I, I want to be one, One who is touched by the sun, One who is touched by the sun. |

The reason I wouldn't kiss you last night I wouldn't kiss you 'cause I was afriad That I'd like you too much And if I liked you too much I'd be afraid that I'd give you a present And if I gave you a gift, You might give me a gift And then I'd be afraid... That I wouldn't like it The reason, there's always a reason Behind the reason When you look for a reason A reason, I can give you a reason And maybe you'll think It's a really good reason But I come up with the reasons You asked me if I'd scratch your back I wouldn't scratch it 'Cause I was afraid that I'd twist your arm And if I twisted your arm I'd be afraid that it would lead to passion And if we got too drunk We might fall out of the bunk And then I;d be afriad We would have a concussion CHORUS Don't ever live with your real love Stop before it starts Real love will last much longer Stay stronger Living in your heart Yeah, that's where it belongs, in your heart The reason, there's always a reason Behind the reason When you look for the reason The reason, I can give you a reason And maybe you'll think It's a really good reason But I come up with the reason I'll never have another chance At the Parson's dance (He's gonna spank me) Gotta be an apple tree growing in the field Gotta be at Frankie's house right now Gotta be at Danny's house deja Gotta meet a holy man He'll be in the valley when Amelia tries to land (With his shirt off) I can never be in love, I can only be in heat And I never felt so...never felt so... Never felt so... Hot |

The Night Before Christmas (Children carry through the streets)
Lyrics by: Carly Simon Children carry through the streets A brightly painted star Angels gather 'round the hearth Strumming on guitars Men of great renown and faith Say prayers on boulevards It's the night before Christmas But you don't have to be an angel To sing harmony And you don't have to be a child To love the mystery And you don't have to be a wise man On bended knee The heart of this Christmas is in you and me The night before Christmas The night before Christmas If you're heart's been longing And you've been afraid to try Sorrow's kept you company And the dance has passed you by I'll lift you up and blaze with you Across the moonlit sky On the night before Christmas 'Cause you don't have to be an angel To sing in harmony And you don't have to be a child to love the mystery And you don't have to be a wise man On bended knee The heart of this Christmas is in you and me The heart of this Christmas is in you and me The night before Christmas The night before Christmas |

And half remembered tunes So take me then Here on this sand in the midst of these stars Swaying in thrall to the fading guitars Lost on the beach in this trance They're playing the last samba The last samba The last samba Shall we dance?

I was in the desert
Amazed by all that sand I as in a sea of white Swimming through the land Nobody shocked me Nobody locked me up Nobody took my time Nobody shook me up All that happened was the white night The endless sand in the moonlight I was in the desert In the opalescent moon Watching the horizon And waiting for the moon Nobody talked to me Nobody looked me up Nobody walked up to me Nobody shook me up All that happened was the white night The endless sand in the moonlight I was in the desert Free to live or die Looking in the mirror And seeing just the sky Nobody got to me Nobody said what to me Nobody shoved me Nobody loved me All that happened was the white night The endless sand and the moonlight |

The Carter family lived next door for almost 14 years With Gwen and I inseperatable from rag dolls through brassieres Then Gwen began to bore me with her giggles and her fears The day the Carters moved away, I had to fake my tears I told new friends Gwen Carter had become a silly pest And then I found I missed her more than I'd ever have guessed Grandma used to nag at me to straighten up my spine To act respectful and read good books To take care of what was mine I hated being criticized and asking her permission So what if her advise was wise, It always hurt to listen I didn't cry when Granny died, she made me so depressed And then I found I missed her more than I'd ever have guessed You used to make me moan in bed, but that can't be enough My friends complained your jokes were crude, Your manners were too rough Don't know just what I wanted, but I know I wanted more Someone smooth, presentable, to blend with my decor And now at night I think of how you grinned when you undressed And I find I miss you more than I'd ever have guessed. |

My father sits at night with no lights on
His cigarette glows in the dark. The living room is still; I walk by, no remark. I tiptoe past the master bedroom where My mother reads her magazines. I hear her call sweet dreams, But I forgot how to dream. But you say it's time we moved in together And raised a family of our own, you and me - Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be: You want to marry me, we'll marry. My friends from college they're all married now; They have their houses and their lawns. They have their silent noons, Tearful nights, angry dawns. Their children hate them for the things they're not; They hate themselves for what they are- And yet they drink, they laugh, Close the wound, hide the scar. But you say it's time we moved in together And raised a family of our own, you and me - Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be: You want to marry me, we'll marry. You say we can keep our love alive Babe - all I know is what I see - The couples cling and claw And drown in love's debris. You say we'll soar like two birds through the clouds, But soon you'll cage me on your shelf - I'll never learn to be just me first By myself. Well O.K., it's time we moved in together And raised a family of our own, you and me - Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be, You want to marry me, we'll marry, We'll marry. |

You imagine when you see her
that she's nothing less that perfect That she has no aspirations Beyond driving in her car The car she looks so good in Will she ever look that good again you'll never have to know Because she's gone She passes in the left lane And you're turned on by the chase Her hair flies in the wind As your mind begins to race The grass is always greener But I wish you could have seen her Drunk and lying with the gutter in her face Take me as I am Take me as I am For the woman that I am Take me as I am You think she knows the bible And can swin the English Channel Writes novels in her spare time In a cabin in the woods You wish I'd gone to college And you wish I'd let my hair grow you wish I didn't have so many moods Take me as I am Take me as I am For the woman that I am Take me as I am Take me as I am Once you said you were in love with me And maybe you still are But the passion you once showed me Now is lost among the stars And you fancy some new fancy girl Will come and change your life around But she just turned the corner in her car While for some other dreamin' driver I am that romantic stranger Lookin' better than I am More mysterious by far Speeding through his dreams While I'm drivin' in my car Take me as I am Take me as I am For the woman that I am Take me as I am Take me as I am |

Are you going to Scarborough Fair:
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme. Remember me to one who lives there. She once was a true love of mine. On the side of a hill in the deep forest green. Tracing of sparrow on snow-crested brown. Blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain Sleeps unaware of the clarion call. Tell her to make me a cambric shirt: Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme; Without no seams nor needle work, Then she'll be a true love of mine. On the side of a hill a sprinkling of leaves. Washes the grave with silvery tears. A soldier cleans and polishes a gun. Sleeps unaware of the clarion call. Tell her to find me an acre of land: Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme; Between the salt water and the sea strand, Then she'll be a true love of mine. War bellows blazing in scarlet battalions. General order their soldiers to kill. And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten. Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather: Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme; And gather it all in a bunch of heather, Then she'll be a true love of mine. |

A grey day in February
Some flecks of white, but mostly brown Purple surprises riding in on a nerve Begins to excite you before it settles down It's after the knives and the sutures and needles I'm left with an arrow that points at my heart I call it the seat of my sentimental sorrow Gone seems to be one of the sum of my parts And the night is cold As the coldest nights are There's a wise woman She comes from an evening star She says: Look for the signs You won't have to look far Lead with your spirit and follow Follow your scar A man I knew once said he wanted to see me I said I'd been sick but was on the mend I told him a few of the overall details He said: That's too bad And he's never called me again What a gift in disguise that poor little puppy So scared of misfortune and always on guard A big man will love you Even more when you're hurtin' And a really big man Loves a really good scar Cause the dawn breaks And it's breaking your heart There's a wise woman She sits at the end of the bar She says: Look for the signs You won't have to look far Lead with your spirit and follow Follow your scar A grey day in February Some flecks of white, but mostly brown The world has tilted but The world has expanded And the world has turned My world upside down Cause the night is warm and all full of stars There's a wise woman She's moved right into my heart She says: Look for the signs You won't have to look far Lead with your spirit and follow Follow Follow your scar English translation of Gaelic: Run with the red deer And sing with the wind The magic lasts And meaning will follow The scar is God given As a sign for your life Strength from your ancestors And through your own mouth Strength from memory Like a tree on the wind Show me your scar And I will make it better |

Can you be private when the juice is sweet And the secret is crimson Can you be quiet when my hands are heat And the riptide rises? Can you be blind and a beggar on your knees? And live on our desire alone Can you ride the tide in this insanity And still keep as still as the shadows? When the cry is so wide on the inside When the truth jumps quick to the heart When the wind or the stars are violent Can you be silent? Here'd a little something that the wizard said: 'You can kiss, but never tell All the wisdom you need And you'il be needing some Can be heard in the mouth of a seashell' Chorus Just the wide grey sky And the hunchback moon Will keep our memories Not a living soul will remember us This is just for you and me 'Cause if you;re out with the boys one night If you;re out with the boys and there's braggin? If you break, speak and call me your lover, I'l lie, I swear, I'll lie, and it will all be over |

Love Who knows about love And even those who do know Won't reveal it Back when you were in your prime Love was just a waste of time Once you'd flirt discreetly Now you give completely that's pretty strange you can try to play at love Even be blas' at love But although you doubt it you can't live without it That's pretty strange Love Who knows about it And even those who do know Won't reveal it Love can make you cry sometimes make you want to die sometimes But when cryin's done then Love is so much fun then That's pretty strange |

Play
You can play with me But take it easy Have You can have your fun But only with me I've had Some big time winners Played games You'd never imagine I'd know But now I'm ready To quit those sinners I've turned myself Into the ground And now I feel so slow Put a smile on my face But don't bloodshot My eyes The love That you give to me Has enough surprise Baby You know what I was You've seen me At parties before And don't cha know That all That running around Was wild and gay But in the end Just a bore So play You can play with me But take it easy I said take it easy Take is easy |
