Stevie Wonder

How many roads must a man walk down
Before they call him a man
How many sea must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand
How many times must those cannon balls be fired
Before they're forever banned
Oh yeah let me tell you that
The answer my friend is blowing in the wind
The answere is blowing in the wind
(Well how many years) how many years can a mountain exist
(Yeah before) before it is washed to the sea
(How many years) how many years can a man exist
(Ah before) before he's allowed to be free
(Too many years have gone by already now)
How many times can a man turn his head
(He turned his head and pretended)
He turns his head and pretends he just doesn't see
Ooh yeah you know the answer my friend is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind
Let me tell you it's blowing (blowing) blowing (blowing) it's blowing
The answer is blowing in the wind and it's blowing
The answer is blowing in the wind

Hold me darling hold me
And I'll always be your, be your guy
Closer, baby come closer
Let me be the one you love and be right here by your side

Why should you be lonely when I need you so?
Give my arms a chance I know I'll never let go
So hold me, baby hold me
Say you'll never let me go

Why should you be lonely when I need you so?
Give my arms a chance I know I'll never let go
So hold me, baby hold me
Say you'll never let me go

You know I love you so (I'll never-never let you go)
I'll never let you go (Oh baby-baby, hold me)
Why should we be apart (I'll never-never let you go)

Who can say for certain
Maybe you're still here
I feel you all around me
Your memories so clear
Deep in the stillness
I can hear you speak
You're still an inspiration

Can it be
That you are mine
Forever love
And you are watching over me
From up above.

chorus
Fly me up to where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for a while
To know you're there
A breath away's not far to where you are.

Are you gently sleeping
Here inside my dream?
And isn't faith believing
All power can't be seen

As my heart holds you
Just one beat away
I cherish all you gave me
Everyday

Cause you are mine
Forever love
Watching me
From up above

And I believe
That angels breathe
and that love will live on
And never leave

chorus
Fly me up to where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for a while
To know you're there
A breath away's not far to where you are.

I know you're there
A breath away's not far to where you are

Hey!

Nothing's too good for my baby
Nothing's too good for my girl
Nothing's too good for my baby
Oh, no
(Nothing's too good for my girl)

I'm the luckiest guy in the world
'Cause I've got one pearl of a girl
For my baby I work part-time
Down at the neighborhood five-and-dime
Half of my money goes to buy her
Some of the things her little heart desires
The other half goes dime by dime
To show my cookie a real good time, because

Nothing's too good for my baby
Nothing's too good for my girl
Nothing's too good for my baby
Oh, no
(Nothing's too good for my girl)

She's sweet and she's kind
And she tells me that she's mine all mine, now
Ain't that lovin', ain't that livin'
Ain't that half the fun of givin'

Nothing's too good for my baby
Nothing's too good for my girl
Nothing's too good for my baby
Oh, no
(Nothing's too good for my girl)

I walk around with my chest stuck out
'Cause my baby's worth bragging about
Every Johnnie, Jack, and Jim
Wished that she belonged to him
I gave up the old gang of mine
'Cause with my girl goes all my time
One of these days I'm gonna buy her a ring
And marry her - and everything, because

Nothing's too good for my baby
Nothing's too good for my girl
Nothing's too good for my baby
Oh, no
(Nothing's too good for my girl)

She's sweet and she's mellow
And she tells me that I'm one heck of a fellow, now
Ain't that lovin', ain't that livin'
Ain't that half the fun of givin'

[Coda:]
Nothing's too good for my baby
Nothing's too good for my girl
[Background voices continue]
She's all right and out of sight
And I love her ah-ha-ha, yeah ah-ah-ha-ha-ha ha
Ah-ha-ha yeah, I'm gonna get her a diamond ring, everything [fade]

[Stevie Wonder]

Well don't think I'm trying not to learn

Starting with the ABC of it (A, B, C)
Right down to the XYZ of it (X, Y, Z)
Help me solve the mystery of it
Whoa, I wanna be taught tonight

Because the sky's a blackboard high above me
If a shooting star goes by
I'll use that star to write, "I love you"
A thousand times across the sky

[Stevie Wonder]
One thing isn't very clear my love, yeah
Should that teacher stand so near my love (ah ah yeah)

Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight, out of sight.
Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight, out of sight.

I'm a poorman's son, from across the railroad tracks,
The only shirt I own is hangin' on my back,
But I'm the envy of ev'ry single guy
Since I'm the apple of my girl's eye.
When we go out stepping on the town for a while
My money's low and my suit's out of style,

But it's all right if my clothes aren't new
Out of sight because my heart is true.
She says baby ev'rything is alright, uptight, out of sight.
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight.

I'm a pearl of a girl, I guess that's what you might say,
I guess her folks brought her up that way,
The right side of the tracks, she was born and raised
In a great big old house, full of butlers and maids.
No one is better than I, I know I'm just an average guy,

No football hero or smooth Don Juan,
Got empty pockets, you see I'm a poorman's son.
She says give her the things that money can buy
But I'll never, never make my baby cry,

And it's all right, what I can't do,
Out of sight because my heart is true,
She says baby ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight.
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight.
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, ah ah ah ah,
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight.
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight.

With a child's heart
Go face the worries of the day
With a child's heart
Turn each problem into play
No need to worry no need to fear
Just being alive makes it all so very clear
With a child's heart
Nothing can ever get you down
With a child's heart
You've got no reason to frown
Love is as welcome
As a sunny sunny day
No grown-up thoughts
To lead our hearts astray
Take life easy, so easy nice and easy
Like a child so gay and so carefree
The whole world smiles with you
As you go your merry way
Oh with a child's heart
Nothing's gonna get me down

Don't you do it, don't break my heart,
Oh Babe, don't you do it, don't
Don't break my heart
Don't do it babe
Don't you break my heart

'Cause I sacrifice to make you happy
Get nothin' for myself
Now you wanna leave me
For the love of someone else
My pride is all gone, whether right or wrong
I believe, baby, you'd better keep on keepin' on
Girl, I try to do my best
Girl, I try to do my best, don't do it babe
Don't break my heart, oh don't do it baby
Don't break my heart

My biggest mistake was lovin' you too much
And lettin' you know
'Cause now you've got me where you want me
And you're gonna let me go
My heart was made glad when you strolled, you see
Heartaches and misery you've been causin' me
Girl, I try to do my best
Girl, I try to do my best
Don't you do it, don't break my heart
Go down to the river and there I'll be
I'm gonna jump in, baby, if you don't see by me
Open up your eyes; can't you see I love you?
Open up your heart; can't you see I need you?
I'm no good without you, can't go on without you
Life's no good without you, what'm I gonna do without you?
Baby don't do it, don't you break my heart
Don't you do it, baby, don't you break my heart
What'm I gonna do without you?
Got to go on, baby
Baby don't you do it

Ah ah listen everybody, specially you girls
Is it right to be left alone when the one you love is never home
I love too hard my friends sometimes say
But I believe I believe that a woman should be loved that way
But it hurts me so inside to see you treat me so unkind
Somebody somewhere tell her it ain't fair
Can I get a witness
I want a witness
Somebody
I want a witness
Is it right to be treated so bad when you give her everything you had
Keep on talking in my sleep 'cause I haven't seen my baby all week
Now you kids you all agree is that the way it's supposed to be
Let me hear you, let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah
Up early in the morning with her on my mind
Took to find it out all night I been cryin'
But I believe a woman's a man's best friend
I'm gonna stick by hr till the very end
Well she causes so much misery how's a gal supposed to be
Somebody somewhere tell her it ain't right
Can I get a witness, can I get a witness
I want a witness
Somebody
Can I get a witness
Everybody knows especially you girls
That a love can be sad but my beloved's twice as bad
Now you kids do all agree that ain't the way it's supposed to be
Let me hear you, let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah
I want a witness
I want a witness
Yeah, I want a witness
Somebody
Is it right to be treated so bad when you give her everything you had
Keep on talking in my sleep 'cause I haven't seen my baby all week
Now you kids you all agree is that the way it's supposed to be
Let me hear you, let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah
I want a witness...

I pity the fool

I was born in Lil' Rock,
Had a childhood sweetheart,
We were always hand in hand.

I was high-top shoes and shirt tails,
Suzy was in pig tails,
I know I loved her even then.

You know my papa disapproved it,
My mama boohooed it,
But I told them time and time again,
"Don't you know I was made to love her,
Built a world all around her"
Yah! Hey, hey, hey.

She's been my inspiration,
Showed appreciation
For the love I gave her through the years.

Like a sweet magnolia tree
My love blossomed tenderly,
My life grew sweeter through the years.

I know that my baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
That's why we made it through the years.

I was made to love her,
Worship and adore her,
Hey, hey, hey.

All through thick and thin
Our love just won't end,
'Cause I love my baby, love my baby. Ah!

My baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
And I know I ain't going nowhere.

I was knee high to a chicken
When that love bug bit me,
I had the fever with each passing year.

Oh, even if the mountain tumbles,
If this whole world crumbles,
By her side I'll still be standing there.

'Cause I was made to love her,
I was made to live for her, yeah!

Ah, I was made to love her,
Built my world all around her,
Hey, hey, hey.

Oo baby, I was made to please her,
You know Stevie ain't gonna leave her, no,
Hey, hey, hey.

Oo wee baby, my baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
Hey, hey, hey.

OO my baby loves me....

I've got sunshine, on a cloudy day...
When its cold outside, I've got the month of May.
I'd guess you'd say,
What can make me feel this way?
My girl,
My girl,
My girl,
Talking bout my girl.
My girl!
I've got so much honey the bees envy me.
I've got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees.
Well I'd guess you'd say,
What can make me feel this way?
My girl,
My girl,
My girl,
Talking bout my girl.
My girl!
I don't need nobody,
Oh just my baby.
I've got all the riches baby,
One man can claim.
I'd guess you'd say,
What can make me feel this way?
My girl,
My girl,
My girl,
Talking bout my girl.
My girl!

Cause I love her just as long as

bees love honey
banks love money
birdies love to fly
Little Jack Horner in the corner loves his Christmas pie

Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones

If she gives me one more chance
I'm gonna love her like I oughta

I can't forget (I can't forget)
that lacey dress
that she used to wear for me
we'd sit under the apple tree
and I remember (I remember, I remember) that night in september
when my baby cried and cried cause ???

Do I love her? Do I love her?
With a heart that's true
Do I love her? Do I love her?
I swear I do


I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed
for stringing her along
like a playboy with a play toy
and she loved me just as strong as

bees love honey
banks love money
birdies love to fly (birdies love to fly)
Little Miss Muffet loves her tuffet
babies love to cry (babies love to cry)

Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones

Baby, baby, baby

everything that I adore

Do I love her? Do I love her?
With a heart that's true
Do I love her? Do I love her?

For once in my life
I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long
For once unafraid
I can go where life leads me
Somehow I know I'll be strong

For once I can touch
What my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Oh, someone warm like you
Would make my dream come true, yeah, yeah, yeah (for once in my life)

For once in my life
I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before (not like it's hurt before)
For once I have something
I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore (I'm not alone anymore)

For once I can say
This is mine, you can't take it
As long as I know I have love I can make it
For once in my life

If I should hurt you girl
Oh, such a fool right now
If I should leave you girl
Baby, baby, a fool right now
If I wouldn't love you girl
And I'd be a fool right now
On the outside lookin' inside

All my dreams would fall and crumble into dirt
If I walk away from you I'd be the one to hurt
One day my dreams were surely dying, dying, dying baby
Just like a flower without rain
They just don't know that your sweet sunshine babe
Made my life blossom again
And so the story goes around baby yeah y-yeah

Her feet may wander, her heart may stray, yeah, yeah
Shoo-Be-Doo-Be-Doo- Be-Doo-Da-Dee.
Love's gon' send your baby straight to me, hey, hey.

Oh the dark days are gone and the bright days are here
My sunny one shines so sincere
Oh sunny one so true
I love you

Oh sunny, thank you for the sunshine bouquet
Sunny, oh thank you for the love you brought my way
You gave to me your all and all
Now I feel ten feet tall
Sunny one so true

[Harmonica Solo]

Oh, yeah, yeah

Sunny, thank you for the truth you let me see

My life was torn like windblown sand
Then a rock was formed when we held hands
Sunny one so true
I love you

Whoa

Hey, hey, he-he-hey

See that house, that house up on the hill
Let me tell you that's where my little darlin' lives
Come late tonight I'll have a hand full of rocks
And I know I'm straight strong enough to make one hit the top
And if I do, whoo, she'll come runnin' I'll bet you (she'll come runnin' I'll bet)

She's gonna know that it's me, me, me, me
That's our signal can't you see, oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh what joy that house holds for me
That's why I stand her all night throwing rocks, can't you see
Tryin' to get the attention of the girl I love
So she can be here with me under the stars above
And when I do, whoo (when I do, when I do)
She'll come runnin' I'll bet you (she'll come runnin' I'll bet)

She's gonna know that it's St-Stevie, Stevie, St-St-Stevie
That's our signal can't you see, oh yeah, hey hey hey
And I can see that girl runnin' down the hill
Me runnin' out to meet her, oh what thrill
(When I see her face, moonlight in her hair)
When I see her face, moonlight in her hair
My heart beats fast because she's in my arms and that's
Hey, hey, sure enough

See that house, see that house up on the hill
(House up on the hill)
There's gonna be a wedding there, oh yes there will

This old arm of mine won't have to throw no more rocks
Because I'll have my cookie here with me all around the clock
(Have my cookie here)
And when I do we'll have happiness I bet you

She's gonna belong to me, me, me, me
We'll have a life of ecstasy, oh yeah, oh yeah
Just us two up on the hill
Everything's gonna be alright
Alright, Lord yeah, yeah
Everything's gonna be outta sight up on the hill
Lovin', good lovin', sweet lovin', every single night
Up on that hill

Hey, you were good at playing the fox, girl
When I was good you threw me a bone
But I ain't playing hound for nobody
Girl, just wait 'til I get you home
I'll show you the way to love somebody
Like you've never ever been shown
'Cause my love light's burning
My whole life's yearning for you

Hey baby, you played around with Jimmy and Freddie
You tried to make me look like a fool
But I took care of Cindy and Suzie
Just to show you I can be twice as cruel, babe
If you want to learn how to love me
I'll teach you in my own private school
'Cause my love light's burning
My whole life's yearning for you

You met your match when you played with my affection
You met your match when you tried to make me walk the line
You met your match when you decided you would hurt me
That's when your grape fell from the vine

Your mama told me that I'd better be mellow
She said you're just a baby, maybe too green
I told her Jimmy, Freddie, Teddy and Big Joe
They knew better, Mama shake off that dream
Hey, I told her that you really were cooking
My love is burning, while I'm turning to steam
Hey, 'cause my love light's burning
My whole life's yearning for you

You met your match when you told me that you loved me
You met your match when you told me that you wouldn't let go, baby
You met your match, you met your match, you met your match, you met your match, you met your match
You met your match, baby
You met your match, you met your match, you met your match, you met your match, you met your match
You met your match, baby

Hey!

I ain't gotta worry no more, no

At last, my love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song

Oh baby, at last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you

I found a dream that I could speak to
A dream that I could call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known

Hey, you smiled
And then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
'Cause you're mine at last
Whoo baby, yeah, whoo

[Harmonica Solo]

I found a dream that I could speak to
A dream I could call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheeks to
A thrill that I have never known

Hey, you smiled
And then the spell was cast
Here we are in heaven
And you're mine at last
Whoo

[Harmonica Solo]

Oh yeah
Hey, whoever you are
I want you to listen to my story
Yeah, yeah, yeah my story
While I tell you, mmm

Hello young lovers whoever you are
I hope your troubles are few
All of my good wishes go with you tonight
Yeah, I've been in love like you

Oh be brave young lovers, young lovers, and follow your star
Be brave, be faithful and true
You've got to cling to each other, very close tonight
I've been in love like you, hey

I've had a love of my own
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I've had a love of my own

I know how it feels, ha, to have wings on your heels
And fly down the street in a trance
You fly down the street on a chance that you'll meet
And you meet not really by chance

Don't cry young lovers, young lovers, yeah
Hey, hey, hey
Hey

[Harmonica Solo]

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I've had a love of my own
Yeah, yeah

You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Hey girl, you know you couldn't get much higher

Hey, come on baby, light my fire
Come baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire

Whoa, the time to hesitate is through
There's no time to wallow in the mire
If we try now we can only lose
And our love may come a funeral pyre

Hey, come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire, yeah
Try to set the night on fire

Oh baby, baby, ah

[Harmonica Solo]

Hey, come on baby, light my fire
Oh baby, come on baby, light my fire, whoo

My cherie amour, distant as a Milky Way
My cherie amour, pretty little one that I adore
You're the only girl my heart beats for
How I wish that you were mine

In the cafe or sometimes on a crowded street
I've been near you, but you never noticed me
My cherie amour, won't you tell me how could you ignore
That behind that little smile I wore
How I wish that you were mine

La la la la la la, La la la la la la

Maybe someday, you'll see my face among the crowd
Maybe someday, I'll share your little distant cloud

The shadow of your smile when you are gone
Will color all my dreams and light the dawn
Look into my eyes, my love, and see
All the lovely things you are to me

Our wistful little star was far too high
A teardrop kissed your lips and so did I
Now when I remember spring
All the joy that love can bring
I will be remembering
The shadow of your smile

[Harmonica Solo]

You and me, eternally
You and me, we're a reality
Piece of mind others are searching for
End of the vine, we had it all the time

So in love that's how we live
Never take, darling we always give
Happiness is every day
But it never would be if it wasn't fro you lovin' me
I was lost like a rolling stone I had to roll
As if I knew, in time I'd find my way to you
Here I am in a paradise that's good for two
It's good enough for me, it's good enough for you, ah

[Harmonica Solo]
(You and me, eternally)
(You and me, we're a reality)
(Piece of mind others are searhcing for)

I'll sacrifice day and night, to keep me that wife
One more thing I forgot to say
I blessed to be I find 'cause I build my world around you, ah

You and me, eternally
You and me, we're a reality
Piece of mind others are searching for
End of the vine, we had it all the time

Hey, so in love that's how we live
Never take, darling we always give
Happiness is every single day
But it never would be, baby, if it wasn't for you lovin' me

Why do you feel like making me so sad?
Girl I'll do whatever you want me to
I'll do what you want me to do
I'll do anything that you want me to

Love's the thing that's made us happy
Love's the thing that's made us sad
If we don't get back together
We might lose our romance
Might not get a second chance

And I wanna be your man
If you tell me that I can, baby
You know I'll do whatever you want me to
I'll do what you want me to do

Heaven help the child who never had a home
Heaven help the girl who walks the streets alone
Heaven help the roses if the bombs begin to fall
Heaven help us all

Heaven help the white man if he turns his back away

(Heaven help us all) I need you Lord
(Heaven help us all) Need your help, need you now

Got no place to be
No one's needing me
My girl just said we're through

Love was here to stay
Only yesterday
Today my world is blue

So show me to where there's music
Show me to where there's music
With music I just might go on

I gotta have a song
To go it alone
I gotta have a song

Had a happy home
Now it's turned to stone
Kitchen's cold and bare

She'd cook all day for me
I still hurry home to see
But I know that she's not there

So show me to where there's music
Show me to where there's music
With music I just might go on

I gotta have a song
To go it alone
To a song

Show me to where there's music
Show me to where there's music
With music, I just can't go wrong

I gotta have a song
A happy happy song
A happy happy song
I gotta have a song, baby
A happy happy song
I gotta have a song

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

I never, never had a dream come true
In my every dream I'm loved by you
And we're free as the wind
And true love, it's no sin
Therefore men are men, not machines

I never, never had a dream come true
Without you the world out there was paint in shades of blue
Aince our roads never crossed
I work just to please the boss
I think I might as well just get lost in my dreams

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

I never, never had a dream come true
Guess I'm gonna dream about you baby my whole life through
Seems my folks are ashamed
Said I aint worth the pain
But I'm glad I'm chained to my dreams

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Sing along with me

There is something that I'd like to say to you
There are people who will try to put us down
They will tell us we're too young to see it through, girl
Try to make us cry
But don't you worry, you have me and I have you

Well, there is something that I think you ought to know, yeah
There are people who will say our love won't grow, oh no
It's important that you face them with a smile, girl
And you tell them
Honey, maybe someday lovin' just might be worth while, oh yeah

Well there is something that I'd like to say
And there is something that we can do today
And there is one thing that I know has come our way
Oh baby

And it will work out, but they won't know why
And there is something to our love that just can't die

Maybe someday, lovin' just might be worth while
Oh baby

Isolated junk yard
Letting out the garbage
Eating through the core of life

Sweet fragrance irritates
In a state room death awaits
Persecute your own self-pride

Suffocate the new high
Ride the thorny mule that cries
"Dig your grave and step right in"

Like a judas pay the price
30 pieces for a ride
Here's the fire take a chew

Do yourself a favour
Educate your mind
Get yourself together
Hey there ain't much time

Do yourself a favour
Educate your mind
Get yourself together
Hey there ain't much time

Shredded know-how give away
Species of the human race
Those funky winds of ups and downs

Hall of grit is known too well
Heaven still is your hell
Poison slowly slowly drowns

Let the devil step right in
Lucifer's your only friend
Ain't a soul go'n pity you

Hurdly over time to death
With open arms it waits I bet
Don't you wish you could reach ground?

Do yourself a favour
Educate your mind
Get yourself together
Hey there ain't much time

Do yourself a favour
Educate your mind
Get yourself together
Hey there ain't much time

M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m

Standing here on my own side
Waitin' Fo' the floor

Then I won't have to be
Playin' around

I see the light of your smile
Calling me all the while
You are saying baby it's time to go

First the feeling's all right
Then it's gone from sight
So I've taken out this time to say

Whoa, oh, if you really love me
Won't you tell me
(If you really love me
Won't you tell me)
And if you really love me
Won't you tell me
Baby, tell me
Then I won't have to be
Playin' around
Let me know how you feeling
Oh, baby

We are idle strangers
Married to our dangers
Into space we go to change our ways

Flying to our heavens
We are all together
Into hell we chase the light of day

Look around and you'll see
Ruins of the human history
Look around and you'll see
Time is only floating in your mind
You will find
Searching for time
Empty is your mind

We are charmed by living
Dazzled into giving
All the waste we plan to ignore

Coldness is the virtue
Measured by the untrue
Love is used for something but what for?

Look around and you'll see
Ruins of the human history
Look around and you'll see
Time is only floating in your mind
You will find
Searching for time
Empty is your mind
Look around

Something Out Of The Blue

I opened up my mind
Peace I could not find
Then something out of the blue
Said I needed you

Time swept me away
Merged me into pain
Then something out of the blue
Said you need me too

Oh what joy it bring to me
To know that heavens round
Oh what gladness in my heart
To know my love's been found

Now where hope was lost
Love's paid the cost
And something out of the blue
Said my love is you
Something out of the blue
Said I needed you
Something out of the blue

Sunshine In Their Eyes

A lonesome fear
A hungry face
A barren pain
A dream unchased
Oh I can't wait untill the day there's sunshine in their eyes

A prayer is heard
By one so small
Let love be in the
Hearts of all
Oh I can't wait untill there's sunshine in their eyes

You and I may never see them cry
Or wonder why the world's so cold
You feel that they're too young
To take a look around
But in their faces I can see the trouble all around

Today we must turn into lies
The truth already in their minds
Oh I can't wait untill the day there's sunshine in their eyes

He can't wait untill the day there's sunshine in their eyes
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sunshine
Oh I can't wait untill the day there's sunshine in their eyes
Sunshine in our eyes

When life reaches out and takes you
On an unpleasent ride
And your bridge of dreams comes
Tumblin' down
Don't let your bed of sorrow
Ever conquer your pride
Remember there's always a way out

Just take up a course in happiness
Take up a course to clear out your mind
You will show yourself how to smile
Take up a course in happiness
Take up a free instruction in life
You will learn how to smile

And when your optimism
Has a set back or two
And you feel all your tryin's in vain
(Your heart's in the rain)
Don't give up the hope that's due you
Just to study your doubt
Remember there's always a way out

Just take up a course in happiness
Take up a course to clear out your mind
You will show yourself how to smile
Take up a course in happiness
Take up a free instruction in life
You will learn how to smile

(Repeat three times)

Think of me as your soldier
The man whose life is for you
And the sweet love
That's greater than time has known

Think of me as your soldier
Through worlds of hate I'm for you
Tho' the darkness hits me ever hard
I'll stand long

And we'll be lovers seeing love by heaven's light
Lovers dreaming dreams each blessed by night
I will find the promised paradise
With you there I'll spend my life

In our hearts there are no others
We are bound as two lovers
To give the great eternal love

And we'll be lovers seeing love by heaven's light
Lovers dreaming dreams each blessed by night
I will find the promised paradise
With you there I'll spend my life
I'll spend my life

Think of me, girl, as your soldier
Through worlds of pain I'm for you
To give an endless love
To give an endless love
To give an endless love
To you....

"Big Brother"

Your name is big brother
You say that you're watching me on the tele,
Seeing me go nowhere,
Your name is big brother,
You say that you're tired of me protesting,
Children dying everyday,
My name is nobody
But I can't wait to see your face inside my door

Your name is big brother
You say that you got me all in your notebook,
Writing it down everyday,
Your name is I'll see ya,
I'll change if you vote me in as the pres,
The President of your soul
I live in the ghetto,
You just come to visit me 'round election time

I live in the ghetto,
Someday I will move on my feet to the other side,
My name is secluded,
we live in a house the size of a matchbox,
Roaches live with us wall to wall,

You've killed all our leaders,
I don't even have to do nothin' to you
You'll cause your own country to fall

Where has my love gone?
How can I go on?
It seems dear love has gone away.

Where is my spirit?
I'm nowhere near it,
Oh yes, my love has gone astray.

But I'll blame it on the sun,
The sun that didn't shine,
I'll blame it on the wind and the trees.

I'll blame it on the time that never was enough,
I'll blame it on the tide and the sea,
But, my heart blames it on me.

Who poured the love out?
What made this bitter doubt?
Is peace not here for me to see?

Wish I could tell you,
What I am feeling,
But, words won't come for me to speak.

But I'll blame it on the sun,
That didn't fill the sky,
I'll blame it on the birds and the trees.

I'll blame it on the day that ended once too soon,
I'll blame it on the nights that could not be,
But, my heart blames it on me.

(Background)...Yeh, yeh, yeh, ooh,
Your heart blames it on you this time

Shattered dreams worthless years
Here am I encased inside a hollow shell
Life began then was done
Now I stare into a cold empty well
The many sounds that meet our ears
The sights our eyes behold
Will open up our merging hearts
And feed our empty souls
I believe when I fall in love with you
It will be forever
I believe when I fall in love this time
It will be forever
Without despair
We will share and the joys of caring
Will not be replaced
What has been must never end
And with the strength we have
Won't be erased
When the truths of love are planted firm
They won't be hard to find
And the words of love I speak to you
Will echo in my mind
I believe when I fall in love with you
It will be forever
I believe when I fall in love this time
It will be forever
Ever, ever, ever
I believe when I fall in love with you
It will be forever
I believe when I fall in love with you
It will be forever
I believe when I fall in love with you
It will be forever
I'm so glad that I found someone
To believe in again
God surely answered my prayer
God surely answered my prayer
You know god surely answered my prayer
You know god surely answered my prayer
God always will answer your prayers
Believe in one who will answer my prayer
Thank you god
I believe when I fall in love with you
It will be forever
I believe when I fall in love with you
It will be forever
Come on let's fall in love
You're the woman I've been waiting for
Come on let's fall in love
You're the girl that I really adore
Come on let's fall in love
Come on baby let's fall in love
Come on let's.

Intro
Do you know how I feel?
Can you feel it?
I'm talking to you...

Verse
I'm feelin down, with some kind of lovin'
Cause my baby done left me here
Heart is blazin' like a five alarm fire
And I don't even give a care
I feel like the world has turned on me
My dreams turned to ashes right
in front of my face
I'm getting kind of worried
And I feel so all upset, mmm

Chorus
Maybe your baby done made some other plans
Maybe your baby done made some other plans
I feel like cryin'

In the mornin when I got a heartache
I can't call up the doctor for help
Cause the only persone that could ever do me any good
Is sleepin out with my best friend
I feel like I'm slippin in deeper
Slippin deeper into my shell
And I just don't know how to take it
This stuff is scarin' me to death

Maybe your baby done made some other plans
Maybe your baby done made some other plans
I feel like cryin'

Bridge
My baby's out of work
sittin in the circle
Checkin out the guys that are passing by
by,by,by,by,by, ooh ooh by

Maybe your baby done made some other plans
Maybe your baby done made some other plans

No other man could love you like I do

Maybe your baby done made some other plans
Maybe your baby done made some other plans

Vamp
Can you feel it?
I've got plans for you baby
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
I just can't take it anymore

You know I don't want any trouble
Now I ask myself
Do you want my baby
Do you want me baby
I've got plans for you baby

Very superstitious
writing's on the wall
Very superstitious
ladders bout' to fall
Thirteen month old baby
broke the lookin' glass
Seven years of bad luck
the good things in your past
When you believe in things
that you don't understand
Then you suffer
Superstition ain't the way

Very superstitious
wash your face and hands
Rid me of the problem
do all that you can
Keep me in a daydream
keep me goin' strong
You don't wanna save me
sad is my song
When you believe in things
that you don't understand
Then you suffer
Superstition ain't the way
yeh yeh

Very superstitious
nothin' more to say
Very superstitious
the devil's on his way
Thirteen month old baby
broke the lookin' glass
Seven years of bad luck
good things in your past
When you believe in things
that you don't understand
Then you suffer
Superstition ain't the way
no no no

Tuesday heartbreak seem to be unfair,
Cause you say that you found another man,
Tuesday break heart, guess you just don't care,
Cause you found you another man.

I want to be with you when you're all alone,
I want to be with you when you feel you got another man,
You see, baby, it's all alright.

I wanna be with you when the nightime comes,
I wanna be with you when the daytime comes,
I wanna stay, oh baby, lemme, baby with you.

Tuesday heartbreak seem to be a drag,
When you know that you love her especially,
Catch up baby, catch up with my dreams,
Maybe then I can see you all the time.

But I wanna be with you when the nightime comes,
I wanna be with you when the daytime comes,
I wanna stay and never go away,
Oh baby, it's alright.

I wanna be with you when the nightime comes,
I wanna stay with you till the morning runs,
I wanna, baby, baby, baby, it's alright.

I wanna be with you when the nightime comes,
I wanna be with you till the daytime comes,
Oh baby, get away, alright.

Here we are on earth together,
It's you and I,
God has made us fall in love, it's true,
I've really found someone like you,

Will it say the love you feel for me, will it say,
That you will be by my side
To see me through,
Until my life is through,

Well, in my mind, we can conquer the world,
In love you and I, you and I, you and I,

I am glad at least in my life I found someone
That may not be here forever to see me through,
But I found strength in you,
I only pray that I have shown you a brighter day,
Because that's all that I am living for, you see,
Don't worry what happens to me.

Cause' in my mind, you will stay here always,
In love, you and I, you and I, you and I, you and I
In my mind we can conquer the world
In love, you and I, you and I, you and I.

You are the sunshine of my life
That's why I'll always be around
You are the apple of my eye
Forever you'll stay in my heart

I feel like this is the beginning
Though I've loved you for a million years
And if I thought our love was ending
I'd find myself drowning in my own tears

You are the sunshine of my life
That's why I'll always stay around
You are the apple of my eye
Forever you'll stay in my heart

You must have known that I was lonely
Because you came to my rescue
And I know that this must be heaven
How could so much love be inside of you?

You are the sunshine of my life, yeah
That's why I'll always stay around
You are the apple of my eye
Forever you'll stay in my heart

(Background)
Love has joined us

Can't stop it baby

When you believe in a feeling,
And it's holding you back from my love,
Then you've got it bad girl, you've got it bad girl.

When you insist on excluding
The tenderness that's in my kiss,
Then you've got it bad girl, you've got it bad girl.

If you try to display an emotion,
That will contradict itself,
You will find your heart just sitting
Like a statue on a shelf, on a shelf, on a shelf.

Should you depend on an outlet,
Through which an escape can be found,
Then you've got it bad girl, you've got it bad girl.

If you don't see there's no way out,
Just no way of getting around me,
Then you've got it bad girl, you've got it bad girl.

Yes, you know the plans I am making,
Are intended to capture you,
So you practice false reactions,
To delay the things I do, the things I do,
things I do, foolish you.
You've got it bad girl, you've got it bad.

There's no reward in detouring
My deep sincerity.
Especially since what you're feeling,
Is perfectly clear to me, clear to me, clear to me.

Before you discover the feeling,
You've tried very hard to hide,
You've got it bad girl, you've got it bad girl.

But when you can find just a small space,
To let my love live in your mind,
Then you'll have it good girl, you'll have it good girl.

Evil why have you engulfed
so many hearts
Evil
Evil why have you destroyed
so many minds
Leaving room for darkness
where lost dreams can hide
Evil why do you infest our purest
thoughts with hatred
Evil why have you stolen
so much love Leaving
everyone's emotions
lost and wandering free
Evil
why have you taken over
God's children's eyes
Evil Evil
before they could really grow to see
That your way
is not the way
to make life what it should be
Evil
why have you destroyed
you've destroyed so much
of this doggone world
Evil Evil
why have you broken so many homes
Leaving
sweet love one love
and ok wandering

Hello Morning, good, good morning to the one I love,
Crystal Ringlets paint a picture of a gold sunrise above.

Little girl you're sad,
Though all you have,
is visible to you.
Within your heart
there stays a part
That like the sky is blue.

Shifting breezes, grace the inner spectrum of your glance.
Leaves on branches, for your pleasure, perform a soothing dance.

Little girl it seems
in all my dreams
Your happiness is due.
But still they last,
their in your past
Events that make you blue.

Thoughts of love are in your mind,
Yet splintered hopes push them aside.
A look at life is what you need to try.

In an instant there'll be sunshine,
sprinkled every place.
Drops of rain will kiss the softness of your lovely face.

Little girl be fair
Show yourself you care,
let others care for you.
Before it's too late,
Cause time won't wait,
Till your heart's no longer blue.

Little girl be smart,
Don't break your own heart,
There is love waiting for you.
Before it's too late
Cause time won't wait,
Til your heart's no longer blue.

Lady love and lady cared
but lady went away,
And left me all alone to suffer.

And now I feel it's not fair
for me to fall in love
The truth is the real me you must uncover.

Seems so long, since I've heard the sound
It's been so long, since I've trusted in someone else,
Had to see it all for myself,
It's been so long, that the world seems cold,
But I think it's time in my life to find myself again.

Lady loved and lady stayed,
Until she was too pleased
She knew I wouldn't leave for her to suffer.
I'd never make her suffer.

Now I believe you're just like me,
In that you understand,
And want me for your man to always love me.

You can believe it's seems so long, since I've touched a wanting hand
Oh, it seems so long, since I've trusted in someone else,
Had to see this world for myself,
And it's been so long that the world seems cold,
Now I think I've found someone to make me trust in someone again.

But is that really in her head
But I just want to live each day to love her
for what she is
Mary wants to be another movie star

And all the things she wants to be
She needs to leave behind
But

Mary wants to be a superwoman

But, very well, I believe I know you-very well
Wish that you knew me too-very well
And I think I can deal with everything going through your head

Very well, and I think I can face-very well

And I think I can cope with everything going through your head

Mary wants to be a superwoman
And try to boss the bull around
But does she really think that she will get by with a dream

My woman want to be a superwoman
And I just had to say good-bye
Because I can't spend all my hours start to cry

But, very well, I believe I know you
Very well wish that you knew me too

When the summer came you were not around
Now the summer's gone and love cannot be found
Where were you when I needed you-last winter, my love?

When the winter came you went further south
Parting from love's nest, leaving me in doubt
Where are you when I need you, like right now?

Our love is at an end
But you say now you have changed
But tomorrow will reflect love's past

When the winter came you were not around
Through the bitter winds love could not be found
Where were you when I needed you, last winter, my love?

Oh I need you baby, I need you baby

Our love is at an end
But you say now you have changed,
But tomorrow will reflect love's past oh

Spring will fill the air and you will come around,
Well is it summer love that will let me down,
Where were you when I needed you, last winter, my love?

La la la la la, la la la la la
La la la la la, la la la la la
Where are you when I need you, like right now?
Right now, right now, right now

Where were you when I needed you last winter, my dear
I need you baby, I need you baby, I need you baby
Oh, where were you when I needed you last winter, last winter

Yea, need you baby, need you, need you baby,
Oh, you want me too need you baby
Oh where were you when I needed you last, dear
Yea

All is fair in love
Love's a crazy game
Two people vow to stay
In love as one they say
But all is changed with time
The future none can see
The road you leave behind
Ahead lies mystery
But all is fair in love
I had to go away
A writer takes his pen
To write the words again
That all in love is fair

All of fate's a chance
It's either good or bad
I tossed my coin to say
In love with me you'd stay
But all in war is so cold
You either win or lose
When all is put away
The losing side I'll play
But all is fair in love
I should have never left your side
A writer takes his pen
To write the words again
That all in love is fair

A writer takes his pen
To write the words again
That all in love is fair"

Everybody's got a thing
But some don't know how to handle it
Always reachin' out in vain
Accepting the things not worth having but

Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, mama
Cause I'll be standing on the side
When you check it out

They say your style of life's a drag
And that you must go other places
But just don't you feel too bad
When you get fooled by smiling faces but

Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, mama
Cause I'll be standing on the side
When you check it out...
When you get off... your trip
Don't you worry 'bout a thing...
Don't you worry 'bout a thing...ooh

Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, mama
Cause I'll be standing on the side
When you check it out...
When you get off... your trip

Everybody needs a change
A chance to check out the new
But you're the only one to see
The changes you take yourself through but

Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, pretty mama
Cause I'll be standing in the wings
When you check it out

Don't you worry 'bout a thing
REPEAT and FADE"

Looking in your eyes
Kind of heaven eyes
Closing both my eyes
Waiting for surprise
To see the heaven in your eyes is not so far
Cause I'm not afraid to try and go it
To know the love and the beauty never known before
I'll leave it up to you to show it

And golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there
Golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there
Take me right away

Looking at your hands
Hands can understand
Waiting for the chance
Just to hold your hand

A touch of rain and sunshine made the flower grow
Into a lovely smile that's blooming
And it's so clear to me that you're a dream come true
There's no way that I'll be losing

And golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there
Golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there
Take me right away

A touch of rain and sunshine made the flower grow
Into a lovely smile that's blooming
And it's so clear to me that your my dream come true
There is no way that I'll be losing

Golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there
Golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there

A boy is born in hard time Mississippi
Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty
His parents give him love and affection
To keep him strong moving in the right direction
Living just enough, just enough for the city...ee ha!

His father works some days for fourteen hours
And you can bet he barely makes a dollar
His mother goes to scrub the floors for many
And you'd best believe she hardly gets a penny
Living just enough, just enough for the city... yeah!

His sister's black but she is sho'nuff pretty
Her skirt is short but Lord her legs are sturdy
To walk to school she's got to get up early
Her clothes are old but never are they dirty
Living just enough, just enough for the city...um hum

Her brother's smart he's got more sense than many
His patience's long but soon he won't have any
To find a job is like a haystack needle
Cause where he lives they don't use colored people
Living just enough, just enough for the city...

Living just enough...
For the city... ooh, ooh
(Repeat several times)

His hair is long, his feet are hard and gritty
He spends his life walking the streets of New York City
He's almost dead from breathing in air pollution
He tried to vote but to him there's no solution
Living just enough, just enough for the city...
yeah, yeah, yeah!

I hope you hear inside my voice of sorrow
And that it motivates you to make a better tomorrow
This place is cruel no where could be much colder
If we don't change the world will soon be over
Living just enough, stop giving just enough for the city!!!!

People hand in hand
Have I lived to see the milk and honey land?
Where hates a dream and love forever stands
Or is this a vision in my mind?

The law was never passed
But somehow all men feel they're truly free at last.
Have we really gone this far through space and time
Or is this a vision in my mind?

I'm not one who make believes
I know that leaves are green
They only turn to brown when autumn comes around
I know just what I say
Today's not yesterday
And all things have an ending

But what I'd like to know
Is could a place like this exist so beautiful
Or do we have to find our wings and fly away
To the vision in our mind?

Free to join in fun and plenty recreation.
There awaits you a ticket
At Please Have A Good Time Station,

Til ole Father Time decides to change.
Simon says that your mind is requesting furliugh,
Let it find the answers to things
That you've always wanted to know.
There's a tour of many places
That you've always wanted to go,
And to me that sure sounds best
'Cause it means happiness for you.
