Joan Osborne [보컬]

August in the city 90 degrees
The streets are full of arms and legs
The audience is hangin' on the corner
Just waitin' for some bones to beg
The sniper and the moving target
I can't talk talk talk until my face turn blue
Hey girl, you, girl put that right here
This what I'll do to you
But I live, I live, I live on this street
The dogs are speakin' the men are howlin'
When we take our parts out for a walk
I could say, I should say, I would say


Does your mama know about the way you talk
Somewhere in egypt I'm worth 4 camels
A strong healthy girl like me
On 42nd street it's a quarter to look
But the women outside are free
But I live, I live, I love on this street
He's the ruler of the pavement
He owns all that he can see
On 42nd street it's a quarter to look
But the women outside are free
I live, I live, I love on this street
Repeat three times

I can't laugh
I can't moan
I can't leave myself alone
After Jane
After Jane

I was hers
She was mine
We were together all the time
Oh, my Jane
Oh, my Jane

Maybe it's the right thing, and maybe it's wrong
You know I lay awake and wonder all night long
Maybe it's over and maybe we're free
You know this lonely feelin' is drownin' me

Will I rise up again?
Will I ever know a friend, like my Jane?
Oh, my Jane

Maybe it's the right thing and maybe it's wrong
You know I lay awake and wonder all night long
Maybe it's over and maybe it's not
You know this lonely feelin' is all I got

Will I rise up again?
Will I ever know a friend, like my Jane?
Oh, my Jane

After Jane
After Jane
Oh, my Jane
Oh, my Jane
After Jane

Every day I thank the Lord above
For giving me such a way with love
Oohh baby, what I wouldn't do
Just to be alone with you

You'd be crazy to resist
(You'd be crazy to resist)
I won't rest until I'm properly kissed
(Until I'm kissed)
Oohh baby, what I wouldn't do
(What I wouldn't do)
Just to be alone with you

I'm a full-grown woman and I'm in my prime
I know how to love you and I take my time
I'll wrap you up in all my curls
Make you forget all about your other girls

No one will know baby, no one will see
(No one will see)
No one can touch you now because you're safe with me
(You're safe with me)
Oohh baby, what I wouldn't do
(What I wouldn't do)
Just to be alone with you

Oohh baby, what I wouldn't do
(What I wouldn't do)
Just to be alone with you
(Just to be alone with you)
Just to be alone with you
(Just to be alone with you)
Oh just to be alone
Just to be alone

I was struck down by your angel face

I had a father
I had a brother
I had a husband and I had a lover
I had a son he filled me with wonder

But I was struck down by your angel face

I was a woman
I was a mother
Wake in a fever from what I've been under
You made my heart beat
like god made the thunder

I was struck down by your angel face

Oh, did I tell you?
Did I bother to mention
you're keeping me worried
building up tension
Spinning out of control
Don't trust my intention since

*I was struck down by your angel face

Tender as a peach
someone I would love to teach
Started as a joke
just a lazy little poke
Woke up one sweet day
and I could not run away
Ears will start to bleed
No I cannot take this speed

I'm in baby love
I'm in baby love
I'm in baby love again

I was innocent
wonder where your manners went
How was I to know
it would never let me go
Drag it through the mud
will we ever see some blood
You would try to leave
something I can not conceive

I'm in baby love
I'm in baby love
I'm in baby love again

Take me in your fist
prove to me that you exist
Be as plain as day
watch my body melt away
There in black and white
victim of my appetite
Make me understand
do you want to be the man?

I'm in baby love
I'm in baby love
I'm in baby love again

Comin' out of the window
Watchin' down from the wall
Billie listens to your heartbeat
Floatin' down the hall
You think my eyes are covered over
You think my heart has crawled away
Billie listens to your heartbeat
When I don't know what to say
I meant to be your drivin' wheel
I meant to be your swing
If I had a tongue like that
I would keep you safe
I would keep you safe from everything
I made a deal with the ocean
I made a deal with the ground
Billie listins to your heartbeat
When I'm not around
When I'm not around

Comin' out of the window
Watchin' down from the wall
Billie listens to your heartbeat
Floatin' down the hall
You think my eyes are covered over
You think my heart has crawled away
Billie listens to your heartbeat
When I don't know what to say
I meant to be your drivin' wheel


I meant to be your swing
If I had a tongue like that
I would keep you safe
I would keep you safe from everything
I made a deal with the ocean
I made a deal with the ground
Billie listins to your heartbeat
When I'm not around
When I'm not around

Fare you well, my honey, fare you well my only true one.
All the birds that were singing are flown, except you alone.

Going to leave this brokedown palace,
On my hand and knees, I will roll, roll, roll.
Make myself a bed in the waterside,
In my time, I will roll, roll roll.

Make myself a bed by the waterside I will lay my head.
Listen to the river sing sweet songs, to rock my soul.

River going to take me, sing sweet and sleepy,
Sing me sweet and sleepy all the way back home.
Its a far gone lullaby, sung many years ago.
Mama, mama many worlds I've come since I first left home.

Goin home, goin home, by the riverside I will rest my bones,
Listen to the river sing sweet songs, to rock my soul.

Going to plant a weeping willow,
On the banks green edge it will grow, grow, grow.
Sing a lullaby beside the water,
Lovers come and go, the river roll, roll, roll.

Fare you well, fare you well, I love you more than words can tell,
Listen to the river sing sweet songs, to rock my soul.

If I die in New York city
Bury me on the Battery
The pretty girls on Brooklyn ferry
Ask them all to weep for me

I'll be smiling brother
When they lay me down
Cause I lived my life
In New York town

Say it again

I'll be smiling brother
When they lay me down
Cause I lived my life
In New York town

And I'll be smiling brother
When they lay me down
Cause I lived my life
In New York town

I'll be smiling brother
When they lay me down
Cause I lived my life
In New York town

Because I lived my life
In New York town

REPEAT THREE TIMES

And if you say to me it's wrong, I know
But here we are and I refuse to go
I can't go on without the love we make
Your touch is all I need to cure this day

I can't say no, how hard I've tried
How long I've run to try and hide
How deep my love, so sweet tonight
I can't say no, any more

And if you say to me it's all a dream
And let me sleep so happily, it seems
Don't wake me up without the love we make
Your touch is all I need to cure this day

I can't say no, how hard I've tried
How long I've run to try and hide
How deep my love, so sweet tonight
I can't say no, any more

I can't say no, I can't say no
I can't say no, anymore
(can't say no, can't say no, can't say)

I can't say no, I can't say no
I can't say no, anymore
(can't say no, can't say no, can't say)

I can't say no, I can't say no
I can't say no, anymore

In the shadows of tall buildings
Of fallen angels on the ceilings
Oily feathers in bronze and concrete
Faded colors, pieces left incomplete
The line moves slowly past the electric fence
Across the borders between continents

In the cathedrals of New York and Rome
There is a feeling that you should just go home
And spend a lifetime finding out just where that is

In the shadows of tall buildings
The architecture is slowly peeling
Marble statues and glass dividers
Someone is watching all of the outsiders
The line moves slowly through the numbered gate
Past the mosaic of the head of state

In the cathedrals of New York and Rome
There is a feeling that you should just go home
And spend a lifetime finding out just where that is

In the shadows of tall buildings
Of open arches endlessly kneeling
Sonic landscapes echoing vistas
Someone is listening from a safe distance
The line moves slowly into a fading light
A final moment in the dead of night

In the cathedrals of New York and Rome
There is a feeling that you should just go home
And spend a lifetime finding out just where that is

Oohh...

In the cathedrals of New York and Rome
There is a feeling that you should just go home
And spend a lifetime finding out just where that is

And your hands are really shakin something awful
As you light your 27th cigarette
Oh how long have you been sittin in the darkness
You forget
Oh you know you're gettin really hard to be with
And you're cryin every time you turn around
And you wonder why you can not pick your head up
Off the ground

Oh my crazy baby
Try to hold on tight
Oh my crazy baby
Don't put out the light, the light,
the light, the light

And they look at you like they don't speak your language
And you're living at the bottom of a well
And you swallowed all the awful bloody secrets
That you can't tell
Oh you know you ought to get yourself together
But you can not bear to walk outside your door
No, you can not bear to look into the mirror
Anymore, anymore

Oh my crazy baby
Try to hold on tight
Oh my crazy baby
Don't put out the light, the light,
the light, the light

And your hands are really shakin something awful
As your worries crawl around inside your clothes
Ooh how long will you be sittin in the darkness
Heaven knows

Oh my crazy baby
Try to hold on tight
Oh my crazy baby
Don't put out the light, the light,
the light, the light, the light,
the light, the light, the light,
the light, the light

And your hands are really shakin' somethin' awful
As you light your twenty-seventh cigarette
Oh, how long have you been sittin' in the darkness
You forget...
Oh, you know you're gettin' really hard to be with
And you're cryin' every time you turn around
And you wonder why you cannot pick your head up
Off the ground...

Oh, my crazy baby
Try to hold on tight
Oh, my crazy baby
Don't put out the light...
The light, the light, the light

And they look at you like they don't speak your language
And you're living at the bottom of a well
And you've swallowed all the awful bloody secrets
But you can't tell...
Oh, you know you ought to get yourself together
But you cannot bear to walk outside your door
No, you cannot bear to look into the mirror
Anymore...

Oh, my crazy baby
Try to hold on tight
Oh, my crazy baby
Don't put out the light...
The light, the light, the light

And your hands are really shakin' somethin' awful
As your worries climb around inside your clothes
Oh, how long will you be sittin' in the darkness
Heaven knows...
Oh, my crazy baby
Try to hold on tight
Oh, my crazy baby
Don't put out the light...
The light, the light, the light
The light...

You would make a mistake
If you think I'm not awake
I know what's goin' on
You've been lying to me
But I don't want to set you free
I know what's goin' on

I'm the one who makes you happy,
You got to know that for sure
(can't we give our love just one more try
Make it better than it was before)

Did you try to resist
Was she longing to be kissed
I know what's going on
Does she whisper does she sing
Does she say you're everything
I know what's going on

I will wait for this to end
Cause I know you'll need a friend
When at last she breaks your heart
Cause the only way to win
Is to get you back again
Until then I'll fall apart

I know what's going on

(You have changed who you are
I been watching from afar)

Do you think about the days when we were in love
When a whispered word could send us both to heaven
Now I press a kiss but I know it doesn't move you
It's time for me to let it go

Dead letters with words that are no longer true
Dead silence where your promise used to be
You don't love me anymore but I'd rather be with you
Dead roses are still beautiful to me

Well, I still hang around put money in the jukebox
Play those songs, let them ring the tears from me
Friends all shake their heads and tell me to go on home
But that's where all those memories will be

Dead letters with words that are no longer true
Dead silence where your promise used to be
You don't want me anymore but I'd rather be with you
Dead roses are still beautiful to me

Dead letters with words that are no longer true
Dead silence where your promise used to be
You don't want me anymore but I'd rather be with you
Dead roses are still beautiful to me

Dead roses are still beautiful to me

Where are the bones on that one
What if the cure is worse than the disease
Serve me up some pretty, pretty people
Serve me up somebody I can believe

Don't feel sorry for me
I hate that look on your face
You say, just let go
You say, come back home
I say, I'm just fallin' from grace

I'm naked in a hotel room
My station comin' in, comin' in loud and clear
I'm makin' out with my one true love
I'm makin' this hotel room disappear

Stop feelin' sorry for me
I hate that look on your face
You say, just let go
You say, come back home
I say, I'm just fallin' from grace
I say that like fallin' from grace

You never know it to look at me
A Dracula moon
See love come down any way you want to
Doesn't ask for your permission
Open up your arms and we will break you in too(two?)

Stop feelin' sorry for me
I hate that look on your face
You say, just let go
You say, come back home
I say, I'm just fallin' from grace
I say, I'm just fallin' from grace...
Just fallin'
Just fallin'...

I'm smooth and heavy all over the world

The sun goes down too early
The wind goes down my back just like it owns me
I work my job I get my check
I'm tryin' not to let myself get lonely
I'm just dreamin' about the day that I can
Show you all the love I've got for you
I used to hear my heart cry out
I used to feel it pound in me
I used to think It'd break me right in two
Now that seems so long ago
I'm feelin' like there's nothin' I can't do
I'm just dreamin' about the day when I can
Show you all the love I've got for you
Sometimes I can see your face
Taste your lovin' in my mouth
Baby I am comin' back for more
Can't you feel me comin'
Can't you see me comin'
Can't you hear me knockin' on your door?
I'm just dreamin' about the day when I can
Show you all the love I've got for you
I've got so much love for you

The sun goes down too early
The wind goes down my back just like it owns me
I work my job I get my check

I'm just dreamin' about the day when I can
Show you all the love I've got for you
I've got so much love for you

I don't wanna be the other woman
I know you're not the cheatin' kind
But I see you every night in a fever dream
I just can't get you out of my mind

I'll be alright
If you eliminate the night
I'll be okay
Take all these burnin' hours away
Oh, eliminate, eliminate the night

No other man in this room tonight, no other man in this town
Make me say these wicked words, make me lay my conscience down
Oh honey when it comes to you, I ain't got no shame
You can have me any way you like, you can call me by her name

I'll be alright
If you eliminate the night
I'll be okay
Take all these burnin' hours away
Oh, eliminate, eliminate the night

There's a lot o' men on the floor tonight and gonna give 'em each a dance
But I'm makin' my every move for you, I'm ridin' on your every glance
I could leave in the mornin' before you awake and I really wouldn't mind to pretend
That I never held you and you can go on home and this'll never happen again

I'll be alright
If you eliminate the night
I'll be okay
Take all these burnin' hours away

I'll be alright
If you eliminate the night
I'll be okay
Take all these burnin' hours away
Oh, eliminate, eliminate the night

Oh, eliminate, eliminate the night
Oh, eliminate, eliminate the night

Everybody is a star
Who can rain and chase the dust away
Everybody wants to shine
Ooh, come out on a cloudy day
'Til the sun that loves you proud
When the system tries to bring you down
Every hand to shine tonight
You don't need darkness to do what you think is right

Everybody is a star
I can feel it when you shine on me
I love you for who you are
Not the one you feel you need to be
Ever catch a falling star
Ain't no stopping 'til it's in the ground
Everybody is a star
One big circle going round and round

Why does it take so long for you to leave me
Once you've said goodbye
I wish it could be over quickly
Clean and painless and dry
But your kiss has left its taste with me
And your hands have left their mark
My ears are full of whispers
And murmurs in the dark
Why does it take so long for you to leave me
Now that you're not here
I wish that I could fight this feelin'
Make you disappear
But my body has a memory
And it holds you close within
The smell of you at midnight
The flavor of your skin
CHORUS
I feel your fingerprints
On my heart
I thought that I could handle you
I thought I was so smart
Now I feel your fingerprints
Nothin' I can do
Ain't it touching how I can't get over you
I can't believe I can't forget you
You didn't matter that much
Is it gonna take another man
To wash away your touch
REPEAT CHORUS

Why does it take so long for you to leave me

REPEAT CHORUS

Don't ask her how she knows, but she knows
It's gonna be great
Don't ask her how she knows, but she knows
And she can't wait
Hey hey hey to flyaway
Number one for takeoff
To that big drowning pool in the sky
Number one for takeoff
And her dress wavin' you goodbye
Hey hey hey flyaway
Gone up in rapture
Gone see Your mother
Take off your heavy head
Gone up in rapture
Life's better when you're dead
Bones light as eggshells
Look down on Main Street
See all the people run
Laugh if you want to
She's goin' to the sun
Hey hey hey flyaway

Don't ask her how she knows, but she knows
It's gonna be great
Don't ask her how she knows, but she knows
And she can't wait

Bones light as eggshells
Look down on Main Street

Laugh if you want to
She's goin' to the sun
Hey hey hey flyaway

Get up Jack, crack your head
Sweatin' whiskey in my bed
Ain't you heard a word I've said
Get up Jack
Get up Jack, read the news
See if you can tie your shoes
Find another friend to use
Get up Jack
CHORUS
And come down, come down
Long enough to see my face
Come down, come down
Get up Jack, run and hide
Tell us all how hard you tried
Burn your bridges, drown your pride
Get up Jack
Get up Jack, crack your head
Been so long since I fed
You ain't heard a word I've said
Get up Jack
REPEAT CHORUS
If I came in a bottle...
It was a mighty good year
How come I don't get you high
How come you're still here
God, you were so beautiful
I used to watch you sleep
God, God so beautiful
Too much promise to keep
Get up Jack, go to hell
Baby I can taste the smell
Wish I didn't, truth to tell
Know you, know you so damn well
Get up Jack

Get up Jack, crack your head
Sweatin' whiskey in my bed
Ain't you heard a word I've said
Get up Jack
Get up Jack, read the news
See if you can tie your shoes
Find another friend to use

And come down, come down
Long enough to see my face
Come down, come down

Been so long since I fed
You ain't heard a word I've said
Get up Jack

Wish I didn't, truth to tell
Know you, know you so damn well
Get up Jack

The obliteration of your isolation
the complete explosion
of you fondest notion
This disintegration
is your elevation
It's a grand illusion, it's a grand illusion

You're crying,you're trying so hard now
You'll be laughing
a hundred thousand years
There is only one day
and tonight is the night
It's a grand illusion

The devastation of your separation,
the disillusion of
your constitution,
It's exhilaration,it's your liberation
It's a grand illusion,it's a grand illusion

You're crying,you're trying so hard now
You'll be laughing a hundred
thousnad years
There is only one day
and tonight is the night
It's a grand illusion

I have been unfaithful
I have been untrue
Now I found the road that
Brought me back to you

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

In this crowded city
I was so alone
Stranger to my own eyes
Heart without a home

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

On the Riverside Drive
On the red of night
In the churches of Brooklyn
Underneath the Chelsea lights
Up in Battery Park
And in Morningsight Heights
Hallelujah

Suns are in the sky now
Suns are in my veins
Throw me in the fire now
Love is what remains

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Ooh...

Leanin' against the window of a white hotel room
Lookin' down at Dallas, shining in the heat
Honey when you move it's graceful as a panther
Open up your lips and my heart skips a beat

You suffer so pretty like a ragged apostle
You burn oh so brightly like a soldering gun
And I gave my body and soul to relieve you
But now you have told me that I'm not the one

And if I'm not the one
Baby baby if I'm not the one

Ohhh who's gonna dive down to the floor of the ocean
Who's gonna save you from being alone
Who's gonna hold you when you cry in the nighttime
Who's gonna carry your heart
Your heart of stone

I believed my love
Could take away your darkness
Was strong enough to fight all the demons in your dreams
Little did I know the weight would pull me under
Now I watch us both come apart at the seams

And if I'm not the one
Ohhh baby baby if I'm not the one

Ohhh who's gonna dive down to the floor of the ocean
Who's gonna save you from being alone
Who's gonna hold you when you cry in the nighttime
Who's gonna carry your heart
Your heart of stone
Your heart of stone

Ohhh who's gonna dive down to the floor of the ocean
Who's gonna save you from being alone
Who's gonna hold you when you cry in the nighttime
Who's gonna carry your heart
Your heart of stone
Your heart of stone

Whenever I'm with him something inside
Starts burning and I'm filled with fire
Could it be the devil in me
Or is this the way it's supposed to be

It's like a heatwave burning in my heart
I can't keep from crying, it's tearing me apart

Whenever he calls my name
Sounds so soft sweet and plain
I feel, right there, I feel this burning pain
This high blood pressure's got a hold on me
Or is this the way love's supposed to be

It's like a heatwave burning in my heart
I can't keep from crying, it's tearing me apart

Sometimes this scaring craze, tears all over my face
Can't explain it, don't understand it
I ain't never felt like this before
And that funny feeling has me amazed
Don't know what to do, my head's in a haze

It's like a heatwave
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ohh..
I'm feeling I'm burning
I feel I'm burning in my heart like a heatwave
Heatwave
I'm feeling
I'm feeling, I'm feeling

"You got to help me, baby
I can't do it all by myself
You got to help me, baby
I can't do it all by myself
If you don't help me, daddy, gotta find somebody else

Put on your nightshirt, baby
Yeah, I'm in my morning gown
Put on your nightshirt, baby
Yeah, I'm in my morning gown
Don't feel sleepy, I just feel like lying down"

You gotta help me baby,
I can't do it all by myself
You gotta help me baby,
I can't do it all by myself
If you don't help me daddy
Gotta find somebody else

Put on your nightshirt baby,
hand me my morning gown
Put on your nightshirt baby,
hand me my morning gown
Don't feel sleepy
I just feel like lyin' down

Gotta help me baby, help me baby
Can't do it all by myself
If you don't help me daddy
Gotta find somebody else
Oooh, real quiet, real quiet, real quiet...

You gotta help me baby, gotta help me baby
Help me baby
Oooh, oooh, oooh...
Just want a little lovin' before you pass away
Don't help me daddy,
I'm gonna find somebody else...

I look at him and he looks at me
In his eyes I see the sea
Don't see what he sees in a girl like me
He says he loves me
His eyes, his eyes
His eyes are a blue million miles
His eyes, his eyes
His eyes are a blue million miles
Far as I can see he loves me
His eyes, his eyes
His eyes are a blue million miles

I look at him and he looks at me
In his eyes I see the sea
Don't see what he sees in a girl like me
He says he loves me
His eyes, his eyes
His eyes are a blue million miles
His eyes, his eyes
His eyes are a blue million miles
Far as I can see he loves me
His eyes, his eyes
His eyes are a blue million miles

On a pitch black highway lookin' for a road
Sleepin' on a stormy bed, honey, who will be your coat
Came to be my drivin' wheel, you came to be my man
Now you're rollin' like a baby boy in the backseat of a van

Holy waters, holy way
Holy waters, sweetest way

Mississippi and Missouri
Where the sun swims with the moon
Rainbows run through chapel rooms
Pourin' honey by the spoon
In came to bring you watermelon
Bring you scented wine
Now I'm burning up in hot breath
And the rivers rollin' out of time

Holy waters, holy way
Holy waters, sweetest way

I listen to a seashell out on a purple shore
I heard a song so wild and sweet it moved me to the core
So while the road is dancin' you let your love know how
Move it like the ocean and the waves from here tonight

Holy waters, holy way
Holy waters, sweetest way

Holy waters, holy way
Holy waters, sweetest way

Holy waters, holy way
Holy waters, sweetest way

Holy waters, holy way
Holy waters, sweetest way

How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)"
by Joan Osborne

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

I needed the shelter of someone's arms and there you
were
I needed someone to understand my ups and downs and
there you were
With sweet love and devotion
Deeply touching my emotion
I want to stop and thank you baby
I just want to stop and thank you baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

I close my eyes at night
Wondering where would I be without you in my life
Everything I did was just a bore
Everywhere I went it seems I'd been there before
But you brighten up for me all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways
I want to stop and thank you baby
I just want to stop and thank you baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

You were better for me than I was for myself
For me, there's you and there ain't nobody else
I want to stop and thank you baby
I just want to stop and thank you baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

I am a genius
I am a diamond
My Pretty tongue gives you freezer burn
I think above you
in three dimensions
Come in here, you can never return

*Like a hurricane
in the face of the wind and the rain
like a hurricane
when you open you open a vein

I see your headlights across my ceiling
you are a puppet of a wish I made
They never touch me, they say I'm brain,
my mother's brain

Like a hurricane
in the face of the wind and the rain
like a hurricane

when you open you open a vein
You plant a seed in my mind

I walk around and I speak your message
For myself I don't know what to say
I walk around and I speak your message

Like a hurricane
in the face of the wind and the rain
like a hurricane
when you open you open a vein
Give me more give me more Novocain

Mmm...

You would make a mistake
If you think I'm not awake
I know what's goin' on
You've been lying to me

But I don't want to set you free
I know what's goin' on

I'm the one who makes you happy
You got to know that for sure
Come on can we give our love just one more try
Make it better than it was before

Did you try to resist
Was she longing to be kissed
I know what's going on
You have changed who you are
I been watching from afar
I know what's going on

Mmm..
I know what's goin' on
Mmm...
I know what's goin' on

Does she whisper, does she sing
Does she say you're everything
I know what's goin' on
I can see it in my head
When we're lying in our bed
I know what's goin' on

I'm so angry I could murder, oohh
And I'm so lonesome in my mind
Oh, how I wish I didn't love you baby
But you got me hangin' on your line

Mmm...
Mmm...

I will wait for this to end
Cause I know you'll need a friend
When at last she breaks your heart
Cause the only way to win
Is to get you back again
Until then I'll fall apart

Mmm...
I know what's goin' on

(ad lib to end)

Originally recorded by The Spinners in 1973. The song was
Written by Thom Bell and Phil Hurtt.


This, is our fork in the road
Love's last episode
There's nowhere to go, oh no

You made your choice, now it's up to me
To bow out gracefully
Though you hold the key, but baby

Whenever you call me, I'll be there
Whenever you want me, I'll be there
Whenever you need me, I'll be there
I'll be around

I, knew just what to say
Now I found out today
That all the words had slipped away, but I know

There's always a chance
A tiny spark remains, yeah
And sparks turn into flames
And love can burn once again, but I know you know

Whenever you call me, I'll be there
Whenever you want me, I'll be there
Whenever you need me, I'll be there
I'll be around...yeah

Whenever you call me, I'll be there
Whenever you want me, I'll be there
Even if I have to call, I'll be there
I'll be around

Just call me on the phone, I'll be there
I'll never leave you alone, I'll be there
Just call out my name, I know I know you know
I'll be around

I'll be standin' in a coffin, I'll be there
I'll be a rippin' it up, I'll be there
I'll be calling out your name to let you know,
I'll be around.

Floating above you
beyound the naked eye
blue dreams about you
keep playing in my mind

Oh if I was
Oh if I was your man
Oh if I was
Oh if I was your man

I'm just a satellite,
so lazy in the breeze
Ready to fly away, I need your gravity
When I run down the path
And if I lose my way
your wind will call my name

Oh if I was
Oh if I was your man
Oh if I was
Oh if I was your man

Let's go outside
to a dark place
where the kitty cat hides
put on your fake wings
give the moon a ride

when you're lonely for the angel inside
3:30 in the morning is too early for you
But when it comes without a warning
what are you gonna do
this time?You gonna do this time?

Floating above you
beyound the naked eye
Blue dreams about you
come rushing through my mind
Branded with thoughts of you
they're tattooed on my soul
Why don't they seem to fade
is what I'll never know

Oh if I was
Oh if I was your man
Oh if I was
Oh if I was your man

Today and every day (repeat 4x)

I'm standin' here in your closet
Unbuttonin' all your clothes
I sleep in your bed tonight
But I never find you home
You're givin' me crooked answers
I'm crackin' your little code
I'm learnin' another language
So full it's about to explode

You give me a ladder now
I surely believe I'll climb
It don't even matter now
I'm willing to take my time

I'm gonna love you anyway
Today and every day (repeat 2x)
I'm gonna love you anyway
Today and every day (repeat 2x)

I wanted it to be easy
I know that I'll make you tired
Some tell me you're slow and lazy
Some tell me you're so inspired
You wanted a long flirtation
Your plane doesn't ever land
Some things I don't want to look at
I don't want to understand but

You give me a ladder now
I surely believe I'll climb
It don't even matter now
I'm willing to take my time

I'm gonna love you anyway
Today and every day (repeat 2x)
I'm gonna love you anyway
Today and every day (repeat 2x)

Today and everyday...

Lady Madonna,
Children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet.

Who find the money
When you pay the rent?
Did you think that money was Heaven sent?

Friday night arrives without a suitcase.
Sunday morning creeping like a nun.
Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlace.

See how they run.

Lady Madonna,
Baby at your breast
Wonders how you manage to feed the rest.

See how they run.

Lady Madonna,
Lying on the bed.
Listen to the music playing in your head.

Tuesday afternoon is neverending.
Wednesday morning papers didn't come.
Thursday night your stockings needed mending.

See how they run.

Lady Madonna,
Children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet

I know what you're hidin' from me
You know what I'm hidin' from you
I know that you hurt me real bad
You know that I hurt you bad too
Let's just get naked
Just for a laugh
Let's just get naked
It's a trip and a half
Here comes that story again
All about that television show
Here comes my typical response
Won't you tell me something I don't know
And I'm pissed off about bein' the cops
And you're pissed off about bein' the maid
And how long till they shut off the phone
Till the next time we get laid
Let's just get naked
Just for a laugh
Let's just get naked
It's a trip and a half...
A trip and a half
We've been together so long
I hope it wasn't just the drugs
What happened to the energy we had
The morning glories and the rodeo hugs
And I know you like the back of my hand
With a stamp that says I paid to get in
And yes I am your television show
And you're the nicest place I've ever been
Let's just get naked
Just for a laugh
Let's just get naked
It wouldn't be so bad...
Let's just get naked
Just for a laugh
Let's just get naked
It's a trip and a half

Ooh...

Just as long as I'm in this world
I'll be, I'll be a light of this
Just as long as I'm in this world
I'll be, I'll be a light of this
Just as long as I'm in this world
I'll be, I'll be a light of this
Just as long as I'm in this world
I'll be, I'll be a light of this world

Ooh...

sometimes I feel this earth is not my home
And everything I know is an illusion
So many dreams have been broken and it seems
So much time is wasted in confusion

But I don't know if pain makes me stronger
But if you're beside me tonight

Just as long as I'm in this world
I'll be, I'll be a light of this
Just as long as I'm in this world
I'll be, I'll be a light of this
Just as long as I'm in this world
I'll be, I'll be a light of this
Just as long as I'm in this world
I'll be, I'll be a light of this world

Ooh...

Some that I love I will never see again
Never see again in this world
The one I was I will never be again
No use to pretend that I'm the same girl

But I won't wait for you to believe me
And if time will give me today
I won't wait for heaven to receive me
I will pray, I will say

Just as long as I'm in this world
I'll be, I'll be a light of this
Just as long as I'm in this world
I'll be, I'll be a light of this
Just as long as I'm in this world
I'll be, I'll be a light of this
Just as long as I'm in this world
I'll be, I'll be a light of this world

Ooh...

Let's keep it simple, just for fun
Don't speak of this to anyone
I've seen the way you look in my eyes
I know that you're ready to fly
I put my cards out on the table
You know I'm willing, I know you're able
Stars are out, the night is young
Little wild one

I need you like the air that I breathe
I need you like the sky and the trees
I need you like you wouldn't believe
I need you like the sun
Little wild one

I've thrown away all my defenses
No way of knowing what the end is
I'll make it simple, I'll take it slow
It's there if you're ready to go
If you are hurting I wanna heal it
I'll be your heaven, oh can't you feel it
The fire's burning, the time has come
Little wild one

I need you like the air that I breathe
I need you like the sky and the trees
I need you like you wouldn't believe
I need you like the sun
Little wild one

I need you like the heavens above
I need you like the one that I love
For all you are and all you'll become
I love you like the sun
Little wild one
Little wild one

Well I think it's time to get ready
to realize just what I have found
I have been only half of what I am,
it's all clear to me now

My heart is on fire
My soul's like a wheel that's turning
My love is alive
My love is alive

There's something inside
that's making me crazy
I'll try to keep it together
But what I say may not happen
the same way
now could mean forever

My heart is on fire
My soul's like a wheel that's turning
My love is alive
My love is alive

Is there a movie inside my mind
reflecting the love that
you shine on me
But hold on now to that feeling
Let it go, let it grow
My heart is on fire
My soul's like a wheel that's turning

My love is alive
My love is alive

Lumina
Come and wrap around me
Lumina
Take me through the snow

Eve took a train, Eve took a train
Went to see her man
Melting inside, melting away
Like butter in the pan

Lumina
Come and wrap around me
Lumina
Take me through the snow

Eve took a fruit, Eve picked a fruit
Juice ran down her chin
Babies will put things in their mouths
Never heard of sin

Lumina
Open like the sea
Lumina
Sing me in the dark

Eve had to ask, Eve had to ask
What is wrong with this
Here is the place, now is the time
Let's invent the kiss

Lumina
Come and wrap around me
Lumina
Come and wrap around me...

When the rain is blowing on your face
and the whole world is on your case
I could offer you a warm embrace
to make you feel my love

When the evening shatters
and the stars appear
and there is no one there
to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
to make you feel my love

I know you haven't made your mind up yet,
but I would never do you wrong
I've known it from the moment that we met,
no doubt in my mind where you belong

I'd go hungry, I'd go black and blue
I'd go crawling down the avenue
No there's nothing that I wouldn't do
to make you feel my love

The storms are raging on the the rolling sea
and on the highway of regret
The winds of change are blowing
wild and free
you ain't seen nothing like me yet

I could make you happy,
make your dreams come true
There is nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends of the earth for you
to make you feel my love

Crickets are chirpin' the water is high
There's a soft cotton dress on the line hangin' dry
Window's wide open African trees
Bent over backwards in a hurricane breeze

Not a word, a goodbye, not even a note
She's gone with the man in the long black coat

Somebody seem him hangin' around
At the old dance hall on the outskirts of town
He looked into her eyes when she stopped him to ask
If he wanted to dance he had a face like a mask
Somebody said, from the Bible he quote
There was dust on the man in the long black coat
Preacher was talkin' there's a sermon he gave
He said every man's conscience is vile and depraved
You cannot depend on it to be your guide
When it's you who must keep it satisfied

It ain't easy to swallow, it sticks in the throat
She give her heart to the man in the long black coat
One, two...
There are no mistakes in life some people say
It's true sometimes you can see it that way
People don't live or die, people just float
She give her heart to the man in the long black coat

There's smoke on the water, it's been there since June
Tree trunks uprooted in the high crescent moon
Hear the pulse and vibrations and the rumblin' force
Somebody's out there beating on a dead horse
She never said nothin', there was nothin' she wrote
She's gone with the man in the long black coat

Early in the morning when I'm still in bed
I start thinking 'bout last night
My imagination gets the best of me
And I can feel the match burn twice
Baby have I told you that I love your way
Only once will never suffice
They say that love is always sweeter the second time around
And I can feel the match burn twice
BRIDGE
Oh I take my time, time, time
Oh I must confess
Oh here comes the part I like the best
So even when you're miles and miles away from me
Baby it's no sacrifice
They say that love is always sweeter the second time around
And I can feel the match burn twice
REPEAT BRIDGE
So even if you're never comin' back no more
Baby it's no sacrifice
They say that love is always sweeter the second time around
And I can feel the match burn twice

Early in the morning when I'm still in bed
I start thinking 'bout last night
My imagination gets the best of me
And I can feel the match burn twice
Baby have I told you that I love your way
Only once will never suffice
They say that love is always sweeter the second time around
And I can feel the match burn twice
BRIDGE
Oh I take my time, time, time
Oh I must confess
Oh here comes the part I like the best
So even when you're miles and miles away from me
Baby it's no sacrifice
They say that love is always sweeter the second time around
And I can feel the match burn twice
REPEAT BRIDGE
So even if you're never comin' back no more
Baby it's no sacrifice
They say that love is always sweeter the second time around
And I can feel the match burn twice

Though we may fight
Most every night
I'll meet you in the middle some day
The heartaches thrive
But the love survives
I'll meet you in the middle some day

People are known to be reckless
To never let go of their pride
But honey I believe we've been careless
Cause the damage just can't be denied

Oh, before we start
We're miles apart
And there's a million reasons why
But I wake to find
You're still on my mind
It's stronger as the years go by

I'd like to sit down with you darlin'
Show you everything in my heart
But emotions run high when I see your face
I just don't know where to start

Oh, I'll meet you in the middle some day
Oh, I'll meet you in the middle some day

Mm, if all for this
Just one more kiss
I'd travel any distance to find
Your eyes of coal
Your secret soul
I swear that I could read your mind

Honey you can call me crazy
To think that our affection could last
But I see us throw it all together
After all the storms have passed

Oh, though we may fight
Most every night
I'll meet you in the middle some day
The heartaches thrive
But the love survives
I'll meet you in the middle some day

Oh, I'll meet you in the middle some day
Oh, I'll meet you in the middle some day
Some day

If God had a name what would it be
And would you call it to his face
If you were faced with
him in all his glory
What would you ask if you had
just one question
Yeah yeah God is great
Yeah yeah God is good
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
If God had a face

and would you want to see
If seeing meant that you
would have to believe
In things like heaven and in
Jesus and the saints
And all the Prophets and
Yeah yeah God is great
Yeah yeah God is good
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us

Yeah yeah God is great
Yeah yeah God is good
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
Just trying to make his way home
Like a holy rolling stone
Back up to heaven all alone
Just tryin' to make his way home

Nobody calling on the phone
Cept for the pope maybe in Rome

So one of these nights and about twelve o'clock
This old world's going to reel and rock
Saints will tremble and cry for pain
For the Lord's gonna come in his heavenly airplane

If God had a name, what would it be?
And would you call it to his face,
If you were faced with Him in all His glory?
What would you ask if you had just one question?

And yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us?
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make His way home?

In things like Heaven and in Jesus and the saints
And all the prophets? And...

Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

What if God was one of us

Only You Know And I Know
by Dave Mason
Performed by Joan Osborne

Only you know and I know
All the loving we've got to show
So don't refuse to believe it
By reading too many meanings

'Cause you know that I mean what I say so don't go
And never take me the wrong way
You know you can't go on getting your own way
'Cause if you do, it's gonna get you someday, yeah.

We're both here to be pleasing
Oh no, not deceiving
But it's hard to believe in, aw yeah
When you've been so mistreated.

'Cause you know that I mean what I say so don't go
And never take me the wrong way
You know you can't go on getting your own way
'Cause if you do, it's gonna get you someday.

If I seem to mislead you
It's just my craziness coming through
But when it comes down to just two
Aw, I ain't no crazier than you

'Cause you know that I mean what I say so don't go
And never take me the wrong way
You know you can't go on getting your own way
'Cause if you do, it's gonna get you someday.

Only you know and I know
Only you know and I know
Only you know and I know, oh yeah
Only you know and I know, oh yeah, get up

Well, I found him in Pensacola
In a trailer in the sand
The man from the picture
Creased and yellowed in my hand
Creased and yellowed in my hand

He was squinting and stubbled
And standing in the door
He said, if you've come to take the car away
I don't have it anymore
I don't have it anymore

He got the gospel on the radio
And the gospel on tv
He got all of the transcripts
Back to 1963
Back to 1963
He said I sold my blood for money
There wasn't any pain
But I just can't stand the feeling
It's in someone else's veins
It's in someone else's veins

Momma took me aside
And she tried to change my mind
She said, don't waste your time in looking
There's nothing, nothing left to find
Nothing, nothing left to find
So I left him down in Pensacola
In a trailer in the sand
The man from the picture
Creased and yellowed in my hand
Creased and yellowed in my hand

This may be our last good night together
We may never pass this way again.
Just let me enjoy it 'til it's over, or forever
Please don't tell me how the story ends.

See the way our shadows come together
Softer than your fingers on my skin
Someday these may be all we remember of each other
Please don't tell me how the story ends.

Never's just the echo of forever
Lonesome as a love that might have been.
Let me go on lovin' and believin' 'til it's over
Please don't tell me how the story ends.

Your memory comes back to me
to strangle me with its sweet taste
See God would never be so cruel
to make me live without your face
Now that I have made you crawl
It does you good to see me fall
Like poison apples from the tree
as heavy as a honey bee

Hallelujah
I gave you away so easily
It makes me wonder why

Moving through you every night
The lovely girls in dresses tight
The angels dancing on a pin
The people we are downing in
Like a needle going in
Into the shining city skin
Oh I recall the moment when you ruined me for other men

Hallelujah
I gave you away so easily
It makes me wonder why

If I die before you do
believe me I'll be haunting you
I'll come upon you while you sleep
to drown you in a kiss
So deep

Think I'm getting over him
The sap is risin' in the tree
The blood is runnin' in my heart
Brings desire back to me
I wonder who will the next fool be

There is a Spanish boy who also rides the A train
I want to tag him like a tiger
So I can track him as he moves around the city
So I can guard him like an angel
I wonder who will the next fool be
I wonder who will the next fool be

I got no more tears to cry
I can see it in the sky
In a bedroom by and by
I know it's comin' (oh yeah, ooh ooh)

I wonder who will the next fool be
I wonder who will the next fool be

I go out to the bars where the hearts are full of scars
And I lay mine out in the neon light
It's ragged and it's worn but it's about to be reborn
Honey, are you gonna take me home tonight?

When I meet each man I know
I look him deeply in the eye
Will it be a sweet old friend
Or a pretty little stranger passin' by?
I wonder who will the next fool be
I wonder who will the next fool be
I wonder who will the next fool be
I wonder who will the next fool be
? will the next fool be
I wonder who will the next fool be
