When I left the world behind me
Retreating through the past You reached out to find me And brought me back at last You've shown me something Beyond my looking glass Now loce's in my reflection In the shadow that you cast on me, and you You're something new You're something new Under the sun Under the moon, You're the light of creation And I knew That I'd come to love you Life seemed oh so temporary A case of "here and gone" And I survived just barely Until you came along But now each day I'm given Is one more day I know A love that's so unselfish It's a pleasure just to show my love to you You're something new You're something new Under the sun Under the moon You're the light of creation |

Ooh, I hear you say attitudes and times have changed
And I know the feeling--it's long overdue You say this is a time to right old wrongs Tell me now, if it's true You got the mind, you got the time How long are you gonna wait to do what you want to do now You've been around too long Not to notice what's going on in town You've got to understand I'm taking my life in my own hands And gaining ground--look around Peace of mind You got yours--I want mine If you really want to do right by me See what you want to see But let me be what I want to be 'Cause you've been around too long Not to realize what's going on inside I'm just like you I'm doing the best that I can do to make my stride |

YOU STILL WANT HER
by Carole King From the shelter of your solitude you see her Running circles round the emptiness within And you wonder what it's been like to be her As you feel yourself awakening Though she fills her life between with new adventure There's confusion in her eyes each time you meet You don't think she's gonna last another winter With all the snow she's rakin' in CHORUS: You can't believe you still want her After all these years of knowing her so well ALl the same you'd willingly consign yourself To a life of hell You would think by now you'de see it in perspective She's too insecure to ever really change You've convinced yourself this time you'll be objective You won't need any breakin' in There's no reason to believe it will be different She's still playing games and running from herself But you've always thought you love for her could save her And that's how you get taken in CHORUS |

You light up my life like sunrise in the morning
You make me believe anything is possible I didn't have a dream to my name Darkness was mine, it was such a shame But you came to light up my life You brought me faith and hope and love and light With your tender smile you brought me to the promise Of life outside a world of 9-to-5 and Sunday I didn't know how rich I could be Until you gave your love to me Don't you see, you light up my life You give me faith and hope and love and light You brought your sweet understanding Like sun rays in my hazy skies If you hadn't opened up my eyes Love would have passed me by, right on by I never knew how good I could feel Loving you's left me with nothing to conceal Yeah--you really light up my life You give me faith and hope and love and light |

Welfare workers
Prying into her life Was she really someone's wife And where was he She often cried as they left her without a shred of pride She had so many things to think about So many children to feed She had need of something that would ease her mind (Store-front religion--play the numbers) She had trouble in her time She had so much trouble in her time |

I have opened up my mind to things
I was afraid of Done things I've never done before Taken a chance and seen just what the world is made of Nothing is the same any more At times I feel a golden spirit coming through me Thinking of my life and what it's given to me I will live within that spirit ever knowing I'm where I'm supposed to be Welcome Home In the waters I can see a clear refelection Of the force that's all around There's a harmony of season and direction This is surely sacred ground Sweet life is everywhere as we stand in the clover Feel the circle magic, let it take us over And through all that I've been blessed with I feel certain I'm where I'm supposed to be Welcome Home |

Weekday mornings
Coffee smell in the air After you've gone and the children have left for school I'm alone and I think about all the plans we made I think about all the dreams I had And I wonder if I'm a fool Weekday midday I've got the marketing done Plenty to do but nothing to tax my mind That's allright--it's a habit Heaven knows I can always watch the daytime shows And I wonder which story's mine She loved a man she knew little about After so many years of trying So many years of doing without Oh, but what's the use of crying Weekday evenings We sit and I realize You've dreamed, too, and I kind of understand I've been with you and you need me to take care of you But we'll work it out so I'm a person, too And we'll help each other out the best that we can 'Cause I'm your woman and you're my man |

WE ALL HAVE TO BE ALONE
by Gerry Goffin & Carole King Once I told you without feeling When you came to me in sorrow There's a truth that life's revealing We all have to be alone You only wanted someone tohold you Tell you she'd be there tomorrow But instead I only told you We all have to be alone Then I was amazed to see How quickly you agreed with me If that's the way it has to be There's nothing left to say No reason left to stay Besides I've got a lot of better things to do today So my world grew so much colder With a little love to lend or borrow And I found out as I grew older We all have to be alone |

WASN'T BORN TO FOLLOW
by Gerry Goffin / Carole King No I'd rather go and journey where the diamond crescents flowing And run across the valley Beneath the sacred mountain And wander through the forest Where the trees have leaves of prisms That make the light up into colors That no one know the names of And when it's time I'll go and lay Beside the legendary fountain Till I see her form reflected In its clear and gentle waters And if you think I'm ready You may lead me to the chasm Where the rivers of our visions Flow into one another And I'll stay awhile and wonder At the mist that they created And lose myself within it Cleanse my mind and body And I know at that moment As I stand at cathedral I will want to dive Beneath the white cascading water She may beg and she may plead And she may argue with her logic Mention all the things I'll lose That really have no value Tho' I doubt that she will ever Come to understand my meaning In the end she'll surely know I was not born to follow |

TIME GONE BY
by Carole King The rebel cry of desolation To which we used to hearken Echoes now in isolation As the skies in fury darken A thousand acts of desecration Hundreds more continue When y'know that you are all creation You're gonna fight them with all that's in you I remember time gone by When peace and hope and dreams were high We followed inner visions and touched the sky Now we who still believe won't let them die Waters dammed to overflowing Like tears brimming over in our eyes Sometimes it's so hard to keep on going When promises turn to lies Go ahead, give into confussion And put aside your ideals too Soon you'll see only illusion Don't care who's hurt As long as it's not you CHORUS Soemtimes a leader emerges And is followed for a while Doesn't matter what he encourages Just as long as he's got style Young ones conceived in a passion Of directions we thought enlighted Grown up they follow the mood in fashion But beneathe their bravado you know they're frightened CHORUS |

TIME ALONE
by Carole King here we are in time alone No one else's feelings but our own Seems to me that we have always known What love was meant to be Separately we stood before Life was good but we knew there should be more Time alone could open up the door And you came through for me No sign of the changes we have come through No mind of the strangers who think they know you Now as one we are the a light Though sometimes we were blinded by the night Here in time alone it all seems right And I'm feeling wholly free Won't you stay in time alone with me |

by Carole King I go through the motions of being with people When deep in my soul, I want to be where you are I know we speak every night But words only go so far, I know It feels like an ocean of time we're apart I know that I've said it before But this time when I come home I will stay with you This time's the last time that I'm gonna go Just close your eyes and imagine me home again It isn't so far away Soon I'll be back, and you'll never be alone again This time I mean to stay I promise you this time I'll do whatever it takes To stay right by your side I would do anything, I would give you everything 'cause you are everything to me But until then Gotta keep our emotions under control It won't be easy to do 'cause all I want to do is kiss you, touch you, hold you, love you, promise, I promise I promise you, I'll stay with you, but 'til then Just close your eyes, and imagine me home again I mean every word I say Soon I'll be back, and you'll never be alone again This time I mean to stay Just close your eyes, and imagine me home again Soon I will be on my way (never gonna go) This time I mean it, you'll never be alone again This time I mean to stay |

from Carole King - Thoroughbred (1976)
Every time I've needed you You've been there for me But now I feel a boundary has been drawn I can see from all you do That you still care for me I know the feeling hasn't gone But there's a space between A place that I can't go Unless you step across and meet me halfway We've been friends for much too long And the feeling's much too strong to let it go astray Reach out and make the space between us go away I know a little bit of space between two friends Can sometimes do them good But once in a while we need to touch The way that people should Love can tie you down, I know 'Cause you know I've been there But I've been working on a way to love And still be free to care You love your lady And I know just what you're thinking Was a time I used to be just where you are But I've since found my freedom And I've finally let it sink in The distance really isn't very far There's a space between us A place that I can't go Unless you step across and meet me halfway We've been friends for much too long And the feeling's much too strong to let it go astray Reach out and make the space between us go away Reach out, I know that you can hear me Reach out, I need to feel you near me |

THERE'S A SPACE BETWEEN US
by Carole King Everytime I've needed you You've been there for me But now I feel a boundary has been drawn I can see from all you do That you still care for me I know the feeling hasn't gone But there's a space between us A place that I can't go Unless you step across and meet me halfway We've been friends for much too long And the feeling's much too strong to let it go astray Reach out and make the space between us go away I know a little bit of space between two friends CAn sometimes do them good But once in a while we need to touch The way that people should Love can tie you down, I know Cause you know I've been there But I've been working on a way to love And still be free to care You love your lady And I know just what you're thinking Was a time I used to be just where you are But since I've found my freedom And I've finally let it sink in The distance isn't very far There's a space between us A place that I can't go Unless you step across and meet me halfway We've been friends for much too long And the feeling's much too strong to elt it go astray Reach out and make the space between us go away Reach out, I know that you can hear me Come on and reach out, I need to feel you near me |

Words and Music by
Carole King, Mark Hudson & Greg Wells I figured it out I was high and low and everything in between I was wicked and wild, baby, you know what I mean Till there was you, yeah, you Something went wrong I made a deal with the devil for an empty IOU Been to Hell and back, but an angel was looking through It was you, yeah, you - it's all because of you [Chorus] You are the reason You are the reason I wake up every day And sleep through the night You are the reason, the reason In the middle of the night I'm going down 'cause I adore you I want to floor you I'm giving it up No more running around spinning my wheel You came out of my dream and made it real I know what I feel It's you - it's all because of you [Chorus] In the middle of the night I'm going down because I want you I want to touch you I want to floor you You are the reason, baby [Chorus] ⓒ 1997 Lushmole Music (BMI) ~ Universal-MCA Music Publishing, A Div.

THE FIRTS DAY IN AUGUST
by Carole King & Charles Larkey On the first day in August I want to wake up by your side After sleeping with you on the last night in July In the morning We'll catch the sun rising And we'll chase it from the mountains to the bottom of the sea When the day is over ANd the night air comes to chill us You'll build a fire And we'll watch the flames dancing You'll fall asleep With your arm around my shoulder And nothing will come between us On the first night In August The first day In August |

THE BEST IS YET TO COME
by Carole King & Dave Palmer Hard times, hand to mouth, down and out, all those hard times But we've seen the seasons turning As we weathered every storm And the climate of our loving Is so tender and so warm And the best is yet to come This is only the beginning And we've only just begun To realize the best is yet ot come Heartache, more or less useless, all the heartache But when the flood of sudden tears came down We smiled and stood our ground And the laughter we'd been counting on It finally came around And the best is yet to come And it's getting so much better Than anyhting I've known And I know - oh, yes - The best is yet to come |

Today our dear friend
Chicken Soup This very ordinary day Boiled up a pot of Chicken soup And swallowed it away A-lack! A-day! O-Woe! Oy-Vey! He swallowed it away! Now listen to what I'm gonna say A little bone, a bitty thing No bigger than my pinky- He swallowed hot From out that pot In quicker than a winky He gulped that soup Let out a whoop! And fell down croaking On the stoop And he Choked! And he SAGGED! And he SMOTHERED! And he GAGGED! And he let out a SCREAM! And he let out a MOAN! Then he cried 'Cause he died From choking on a bone On such an ordinary day Like today A-lack! A-day! O-Woe! Oy-Vey! On an ordinary day Chicken soup passed away! |

The awful truth
Concerning me The creature-feature mystery Is simply this In the worst way I wanna play MRS. DRACULA The challenge is tough But I know I've got the stuff To be just spectacular Can't you see it in lights ROSIE REALLY MEETS DRACULA! So close your eyes And visualize Me in a cape And fangs in my head Loving a guy who's mostly dead (I don't see him often 'Cause he sleeps in a coffin) Nothing could be zanier Than our lives in Transylvania We're fabulous one day And rotten the next Variety says THOSE TWO MUST BE HEXED! At six in the morning When my sweetie is yawning I feed all the bats A mush made of rats Then I tidy the tomb Cover all the trap doors And wash any old blood stains Offa the floors DON'T YOU SEE This juicy part Was meant for me! I got the looks I got the style I got the bloodshot eyes And a ghastly smile It's the dream of my life To play DRACULA'S WIFE! The reviews will all rave This movie's a whopper A super show-stopper And no one can top her Not Rosie! Dear Academy, Take note I should get the Oscar vote If I don't I'll bite your throat! Signing off now Quote, unquote |

THAT'S HOW THINGS GO DOWN
by Carole King Here I am Carrying the child of our sweet love And you're far away That's how things go down But I want to see you again Though I've known Others in life who've made it on their own I'm afraid That's how things go down But I want to see you again Hey, with each day that passes by I pray that I will see you soon And you will be here with me To see the child being born Safe and sound All I can do is wait and hope that you'll Be around That's how things go down I want to see you again In the end All I can do is wait and hope that you'll Be around That's how things go down I want to see you again That's how things go down I want to see you again |

from Carole King - Tapestry (1971)
My life has been a tapestry Of rich and royal hue; An everlasting vision Of the ever-changing view; A wond'rous woven magic In bits of blue and gold; A tapestry to feel and see; Impossible to hold. Once amid the soft silver Sadness in the sky, There came a man of fortune; A drifter passing by. He wore a torn and tattered cloth Around his leathered hide And a coat of many colors; Yellow, green, on either side. He moved with some uncertainty As if he didn't know Just what he was there for Or where he ought to go. Once he reached for something Golden hanging from a tree And his hand came down emp-ty. Soon within my tapestry, Along the rutted road, He sat down on a river rock And turned into a toad. It seemed that he had fallen Into someone's wicked spell And I wept to see him suffer, Though I didn't know him well. As I watched in sorrow, There suddenly appeared A figure gray and ghostly Beneath a flowing beard. In times of deepest darkness I've seen him dressed in black. Now my tapestry's unraveling; He's come to take me back. He's come to take me back |

1. Sometimes you win sometimes you lose, and sometimes the blues just get a hold of you just when you though you had made it. All around the block people will talk, but I want to give it all that I've got I just don't want, I don't want to waste it. Chorus Talkin' 'bout sweet seasons on my mind. Sure does appeal to me. You know you can get there easily, just like a sailboat sailin' on the sea. 2. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, and most times you choose between the two wonderin', wonderin' if you have made it. But I'll have some kids and make my plans, and I'll watch the seasons running away and I'll build me a life in the open, a life in the country. Chorus add Talkin' 'bout sweet seasons, talkin' 'bout sweet, sweet, sweet seasons Talkin' 'bout ...... (repeat and fade) |

So you think you got the weight
Of the world on your shoulders And it's getting too hard to bear You feel like you're getting older and older And nobody seems to care It isn't what you do, it's who you know Ain't that the way it is any more Makes you keep on wondering Don't it make you wonder now What are you living for Well, it's a sweet life, baby, don't you think maybe You can give it another try It's your life, baby, but I'm not ready to say goodbye We got a sweet life, baby, why don't you take a good look around It's a sweet life, baby, don't let it get you down Y'say you feel snowed under by circumstances You can make of it what you will You can look at the downside or take your chances And try to make it uphill Now you can't keep living inside your head In a prison cell all your own Just let yourself go, get your body out of bed You don't have to do it all alone Well it's a sweet life, baby, don't you think maybe You can give it another try It's your life, baby, but I'm not ready to say goodbye Y'know this is real life, baby, Why don't you take another look around It's a sweet life, baby, don't let it get you down It's a sweet life, baby, don't you think maybe You can stop and taste the honey It's a sweet life, baby, it's all about the sugar It ain't about money It's a sweet life, baby, don't you think maybe You can give it another try It's a sweet life, baby, and I'm not ready to say goodbye It's a sweet life, baby It's a sweet life, baby It's a sweet life, baby |
