WHEREVER YOU WILL GO by The Calling

 

So lately, I've been wonderin

Who will be there to take my place

When I'm gone, you'll need love

To light the shadows on your face

If a great wave should fall

It would fall upon us all

And between the sand and stone

Could you make it on your own

 

[Chorus:]

If I could, then I would

I'll go wherever you will go

Way up high or down low

I'll go wherever you will go

 

And maybe, I'll find out

The way to make it back someday

To watch you, to guide you

Through the darkest of your days

If a great wave should fall

It would fall upon us all

Well I hope there's someone out there

Who can bring me back to you

 

[Chorus]

 

Runaway with my heart

Runaway with my hope

Runaway with my love

 

I know now, just quite how

My life and love might still go on

In your heart and your mind

I'll stay with you for all of time

 

[Chorus]

 

If I could turn back time

I'll go wherever you will go

If I could make you mine

I'll go wherever you will go

SWEETHEART

Frankie & the Knockouts

 

I know baby it's hard to be strong

Just take the good with the bad

And don't think you're alone

 

Cause I know all your sad goodbyes

Cause I've been there before

To help you dry your eyes

 

Sweetheart

Who love you from the start

Who treats you like a star

Oh sweetheart

 

Who loves you baby

Who loves you wrong or right

Cause you're the spark in my life

Yeah day and night

 

And when trouble a-keeps knockin'

Down your door

Just call on me babe

And it won't be 'round no more

 

Sweetheart oh I know, yes I know

No matter how long

I'll be by your side

Singing this song

STEELY DAN lyrics anyone???

 

MY OLD SCHOOL

Steely Dan

 

I remember the thirty five sweet goodbyes

When you put me on the Wolverine up in Annandale

It was still September when your daddy was quite surprised

To find you with the working girls in the county jail

 

I was smoking with the boys upstairs

When I heard about the whole affair

I said "Oh no William and Mary won't do"

Well I did not think the girl could be so cruel

And I'm never going back to my old school

 

Oleander growing outside her door

Soon they're gonna be in bloom up in Annandale

I can't stand her doing what she did before

Living like a gypsy queen in a fairy tale

 

Well I hear the whistle but I can't go

I'm gonna take her down to Mexico

She said "Oh no Guadalajara won't do"

Well I did not think the girl could be so cruel

And I'm never going back to my old school

 

[solos]

 

California tumbles into the sea

That'll be the day I go back to Annandale

Tried to warn her about Chino and Buddy Gee

But I can't seem to get to you through the US mail

 

Well I hear the whistle but I can't go

I'm gonna take her down to Mexico

She said "Oh no Guadalajara won't do"

Well I did not think the girl could be so cruel

And I'm never going back to my old school

TIME OUT OF MIND

Steely Dan

 

Son you better be ready for love

On this glory day

This is your chance to believe

What I've got to say

 

Keep your eyes on the sky

Put a dollar in the kitty

Don't the moon look pretty

 

Tonight when I chase the dragon

The water will change to cherry wine

And the silver will turn to gold

Time out of mind

 

I am holding the mystical stone

It's direct from Lasa

Where people are rolling in the snow

Far from the world we know

 

Children we have it right here

It's the light in my eyes

It's perfection and grace

It's the smile on my face

 

Tonight when I chase the dragon

The water will change to cherry wine

And the silver will turn to gold

Time out of mind

 

Children we have it right here

It's the light in my eyes

It's perfection and grace

It's the smile on my face

 

Tonight when I chase the dragon

the water will change to cherry wine

And the silver will turn to gold

Time out of mind

 

from the album "Gaucho"

PEG

Steely Dan

 

I've seen your picture

Your name in lights above it

This is your big debut

It's like a dream come true

And when you smile for the camera

I know they're love it

 

I got your pin shot

I keep it with your letter

Done up in blueprint blue

It sure looks good on you

So won't you smile for the camera

I know I'll love you better

 

Peg

It will come back to you

Peg

It will come back to you

Then the shutter falls

You see it all in 3-D

It's your favorite foreign movie

DEACON BLUES

Steely Dan

 

This is the day

Of the expanding man

That shape is my shade

There where I used to stand

It seems like only yesterday

I gazed through the glass

At ramblers

Wild gamblers

That's all in the past

 

You call me a fool

You say it's a crazy scheme

This one's for real

I already bought the dream

So useless to ask me why

Throw a kiss and say goodbye

I'll make it this time

I'm ready to cross that fine line

 

CHORUS:

I'll learn to work the saxophone

I'll play just what I feel

Drink Scotch whisky all night long

And die behind the wheel

They got a name for the winners in the world

I want a name when I lose

They call Alabama the Crimson Tide

Call me Deacon Blues

 

My back to the wall

A victim of laughing chance

This is for me

The essence of true romance

Sharing the things we know and love

With those of my kind

Libations

Sensations

That stagger the mind

 

I crawl like a viper

Through these suburban streets

Make love to these women

Languid and bittersweet

I'll rise when the sun goes down

Cover every game in town

A world of my own

I'll make it my home sweet home

 

CHORUS

 

This is the night

Of the expanding the man

I take one last drag

As I approach the stand

I cried when I wrote this song

Sue me if I play too long

This brother is free

I'll be what I want to be

 

CHORUS

NEW FRONTIER

Donald Fagen

 

Yes we're gonna have a wingding

A summer smoker underground

It's just a dugout that my dad built

In case the reds decide to push the button down

We've got provisions and lots of beer

The key word is survival on the new frontier

 

Introduce me to that big blonde

She's got a touch of Tuesday Weld

She's wearing Ambush and a French twist

She's got us wild and she can tell

She loves to limbo, that much is clear

She's got the right dynamics for the new frontier

 

Well I can't wait 'til I move to the city

'Til I finally make up my mind

To learn design and study overseas

 

Have you got a steady boyfriend

Cause honey I've been watching you

I hear you're mad about Brubeck

I like your eyes, I like him too

He's an artist, a pioneer

We've got to have some music on the new frontier

 

Well I can't wait 'til I move to the city

'Til I finally make up my mind

To learn design and study overseas

Let's pretend that it's the real thing

And stay together all night long

And when I really get to know you

We'll open up the doors and climb into the dawn

Confess your passion your secret fear

Prepare to meet the challenge of the new frontier

 

from the album "The Nightfly"

I.G.Y. (What a Beautiful World)

Donald Fagen

 

Standing tough under stars and stripes

We can tell

This dream's in sight

You've got to admit it

At this point in time that it's clear

The future looks bright

On that train all graphite and glitter

Undersea by rail

Ninety minutes from New York to Paris

Well by seventy-six we'll be A.O.K.

 

What a beautiful world this will be

What a glorious time to be free

 

Get your ticket to that wheel in space

While there's time

The fix is in

You'll be a witness to that game of chance in the sky

You know we've got to win

Here at home we'll play in the city

Powered by the sun

Perfect weather for a streamlined world

There'll be spandex jackets one for everyone

 

What a beautiful world this will be

What a glorious time to be free

 

On that train all graphite and glitter

Undersea by rail

Ninety minutes from New York to Paris

(More leisure for artists everywhere)

A just machine to make big decisions

Programmed by fellows with compassion and vision

We'll be clean when their work is done

We'll be eternally free yes and eternally young

 

What a beautiful world this will be

What a glorious time to be free

COUSIN DUPREE

Steely Dan

 

Well I've kicked around a lot since high school

I've worked a lot of nowhere gigs

From keyboard man in a rock'n ska band

To haulin' boss crude in the big rigs

Now I've come back home to plan my next move

From the comfort of my Aunt Faye's couch

When I see my little cousin Janine walk in

All I could say was ow-ow-ouch

 

[CHORUS:]

Honey how you've grown

Like a rose

Well we used to play

When we were three

How about a kiss for your cousin Dupree

 

She turned my life into a living hell

In those little tops and tight capris

I pretended to be readin' the National Probe

As I was watchin' her wax her skis

On Saturday night she walked in with her date

And backs him up against the wall

I tumbled off the couch and heard myself sing

In a voice I never knew I had before

 

[CHORUS]

 

I'll teach you everything I know

If you teach me how to do that dance

Life is short and quid pro quo

And what's so strange about a down-home family romance?

 

One night we're playin' gin by a cracklin' fire

And I decided to make my play

I said babe with my boyish charm and good looks

How can you stand it for one more day

She said maybe its the skeevy look in your eyes

Or that your mind has turned to applesauce

The dreary architecture of your soul

I said - but what is it exactly turns you off?

 

[CHORUS

OWNER OF A LONELY HEART

Yes

 

Move yourself

You always live your life

Never thinking of the future

Prove yourself

You are the move you make

Take your chances win or loser

See yourself

You are the steps you take

You and you and that's the only way

Shake, shake yourself

You're every move you make

So the story goes

 

{Refrain} Owner of a lonely heart

Owner of a lonely heart

Much better than a

Owner of a broken heart

Owner of a lonely heart

 

Say you don't want to chance it

You've been hurt so before

Watch it now The eagle in the sky

How he dancin' one and only

You, lose yourself

No not for pity's sake

There's no real reason to be lonely

Be yourself Give your free will a chance

You've got to want to succeed

 

{Refrain}

Owner of a lonely heart

After my own decision

They confused me so

Owner of a lonely heart

My love said never question your will at all

In the end you've got to go Look before you leap

Owner of a lonely heart

And don't you hesitate at all, no no

 

{Refrain twice}

Owner of a lonely heart

Sooner or later each conclusion

Will decide the lonely heart

Owner of a lonely heart

It will excite it will delight

It will give a better start

Owner of a lonely heart

Don't deceive your free will at all

Don't deceive your free will at all

Owner of a lonely heart

Don't deceive your free will at all

Just receive it

 

From the album "90125", 1983 ATCO Records

This song went to #1 in the Billboard Charts in early 1984 and won the first MTV Music Video Award for Best Video

Don't open your eyes

You won't like what you see

The blind have been blessed with security

Don't open your eyes

Take it from me

I have found

You can find

After the Lovin'

 

written by Alan Bernstein and Ritchie Adams

recorded by Engelbert Humperdinck

 

 

So I sing you to sleep

After the lovin'

With a song I just wrote yesterday

And I hope you can hear

What the words and the music have to say.

 

It's so hard to explain

Everything that I'm feelin'

Face to face I just seem to go dry.

But I love you so much

That the sound of your voice can get me high.

 

Thanks for takin' me

On a one way trip to the sun.

And thanks for turnin' me

Into someone.

 

So I sing you to sleep

After the lovin'

I brush back the hair from your eyes.

And the love on your face

Is so real that it makes me want to cry.

 

And I know that my song

Isn't sayin' anything new.

Oh, but after the lovin'

I'm still in love with you.

 

So I sing you to sleep

Yes, after the lovin'

I'm still in love with you.

 

Hmmm, after the lovin'

I'm still in love with you.

This is Crazy Now

 

Written by Vonda Shepard

Recorded by Vonda Shepard on the album "Heart and Soul: New Songs from Ally McBeal"

Also on her album "By 7:30"

 

Blown like the wind, restless again

My only friend has gone away

Washed like the tide but I'm still alive

I'm gonna drive all night long

 

This is crazy now, I'll fill the space somehow

If there were some way to get through

This is crazy now, I'll fill the space somehow

I can't walk away from you

 

Shaken like a leaf, sharpened like a reef

All of my senses need relief

Looking out to sea, I still believe

That you and I were meant to be

 

This is crazy now, I'll fill the space somehow

If there were some way to get through

This is crazy now (like a finger paint)

Fill the space somehow (smearing in the rain)

I can't walk away from you (wash it all away)

 

This is crazy now (shaken like a leaf)

I'll fill the space somehow (sharpened like a reef)

I can't walk away from you

 

This is crazy now (shaken like a leaf)

Fill the space somehow (sharpened like a reef)

I can't walk away from you

In Dreams

 

Written by Roy Orbison

Recorded by Roy Orbison (1963)

 

 

A candy-colored clown they call the sandman

Tiptoes to my room every night

Just to sprinkle star dust and to whisper

"Go to sleep, everything is all right"

 

I close my eyes then I drift away

Into the magic night, I softly say

A silent prayer like dreamers do

Then I fall asleep to dream my dreams of you.

 

In dreams I walk with you

In dreams I talk to you

In dreams you're mine all the time

We're together in dreams, in dreams

 

But just before the dawn

I awake and find you gone

I can't help it, I can't help it if I cry

I remember that you said goodbye

 

Too bad it only seems

It only happens in my dreams

Only in dreams

In beautiful dreams.

The Man I Was With You

by Jimmy Bondoc

 

 

listen just hear me out

yes i know we agreed

when we break up we'd never give in to this need

to admit to each other

i miss you

 

listen just hear my cry

no i won't break my word

if i do say i miss you it would never be heard

let my heart whisper

all that it needs to

 

*how could you make me take a start?

then just leave me here hanging

can't even say how i'm feeling

how could you make then break my heart?

if i can't say that i miss you

let me say one last thing

 

#i miss him

and all the things he could do

yes/oh, i miss him

just as much as i miss you

oh, i miss him

i know you're wondering who

yes, i miss him

i miss the man i was with you

oh i would never be the same

 

listen just hear my voice

can you hear all the tears?

that i'm planning to hide

for the next thousand years

just as long as you know that

i love you

 

repeat *,#

except last line

 

how can i blind then find the light?

how can i find the kind of right?

how could you take away my sight?

how could you lose me in the night?

then you took away the heart in me

now i'm losing this fight

no i would never ever be the same

 

ooh.. ohh

 

oh, i miss him

and all the things he could do

yes, i miss him

just as much as i miss you

oh i miss him

i know by now you know who

yes, i miss him

i know by now you know who

i miss him

i miss the man i was with you

 

oh, i would never be the same

Just a week ago you were my baby

Now I don’t even know you at all, I don’t know you at all

 

Well, I wish that you would call me right now

So that I could get through to you somehow

But I guess it’s safe to say, baby, safe to say

that I-I’m officially missin’ you

NOBODY KNOWS

by:Tony Rich Project

 

..And I'm missing you

And nobody knows it but me...

 

I lie awake it's a quarter past 3

I'm screamin' at night if I thought you'd hear me

Yeah my heart is calling you

And nobody knows it but me...

 

How blue can I get

You could ask my heart

But like a jigsaw puzzle it's been torn all apart

A million words couldn't say just how I feel

A million years from now

You know I'll be lovin' you still

Baby, Don't You Break My Heart Slow

 

words by Vonda Shepard

music by Vonda Shepard & James Newton Howard

 

 

I like the way you wanted me

Every night for so long baby

I like the way you needed me

Every time things got rocky

 

I was believing in you

Was I mistaken,

Do you say, do you say what you mean

I want our love to last forever

 

But I'd rather you be mean than love and lie

I'd rather hear the truth and have to say goodbye

I'd rather take a blow at least then I would know

But baby don't you break my heart slow

 

I like the way you'd hold me

Every night for so long baby

And I like the way you'd say my name

In the middle of the night

While you were sleeping

 

I was believing in you

Was I mistaken

Do you mean, do you mean what you say

When you say our love could last forever

 

Well I'd rather you be mean than love and lie

I'd rather hear the truth and have to say goodbye

I'd rather take a blow at least then I would know

But baby don't you break my heart slow

 

You would run around and lead me on forever

While I wait at home still thinking that we're together

I wanted our love to last forever

I was believing in you

 

Well I'd rather you be mean than love and lie

I'd rather hear the truth and have to say goodbye

I'd rather take a blow at least then I would know

But baby don't you break my heart slow

Northern Sky - Nick Drake

 

I never felt magic crazy as this

I never saw moons knew the meaning of the sea

I never held emotion in the palm of my hand

Or felt sweet breezes in the top of a tree

But now you're here

Brighten my northern sky.

 

I've been a long time that I'm waiting

Been a long that I'm blown

I've been a long time that I've wandered

Through the people I have known

Oh, if you would and you could

Straighten my new mind's eye.

 

Would you love me for my money

Would you love me for my head

Would you love me through the winter

Would you love me 'til I'm dead

Oh, if you would and you could

Come blow your horn on high.

 

I never felt magic crazy as this

I never saw moons knew the meaning of the sea

I never held emotion in the palm of my hand

Or felt sweet breezes in the top of a tree

But now you're here

Brighten my northern sky.

muntik na kitang minahal

 

 

may sikreto akong • sasabihin sa'yo • mayroong nagnyaring • hindi mo alam • ito'y isang lihim • itinagong kay tagal • muntik na kitang minahal

 

di ko noon nakayang • ipadama sa 'yo • ang nararamdaman • ng pusong ito (hooo...) • at hanggang ngayon • ay naaalala pa (naaalalal pa...) • muntik na kitang minahal (hoooh)

 

ngayon ay aaminin ko na • na sana nga ay tayong dalawa • bawat tanong mo'y iniwasan ko • akala ang pag-ibig mo'y di totoo • di ko alam kung anong nangyari • damdamin ko sa yo'y hindi nasabi

 

hanggang ang puso mo'y napagod • sa paghihintay kay tagal • saka ko lang naisip • muntik na kitang minahal

You and Me

 

Written and Recorded by Vonda Shepard

 

 

Part of me wants to break the ice

And part of me wants to leave it exactly how it stands

Part of me wants to roll the dice

And part of me wants to leave them curled up in my hands

 

Where they will be safe and no one will know

How I really feel and I'll never be real

And I'll roll with the punches that I'll never feel

And I'll have a heart that no one can steal

 

It's you and me and you're nowhere to be found

I'm rolling on the ground

It's me and you and I'm nowhere to be found

 

Part of me wants to break these chains

And part of me wants to keep them locked up tight

Part of me wants to stop these rains

And part of me wants them to fall all night

 

Fall on my head just to wake me up

Anything to drench my half-empty cup

And I'm sorry baby I've had enough

I'm tired of your promises tearing me up

 

It's you and me and you're nowhere to be found

I'm rolling on the ground

It's me and you and I'm nowhere to be found

 

You will be safe and no one will know

How you really feel and you'll never be real

And you'll roll with the punches that you'll never feel

And you'll have a heart that I'll never steal

 

It's you and me and you're nowhere to be found

I'm rolling on the ground

It's me and you and I'm nowhere to be found

I dedicate this song to a special MTC someone, u know who u are baby :D

 

One On One

by Daryl Hall & John Oates

 

I'm tired of playing on the team

It seems I don't get time out anymore

What a change if we set the pace face to face

No one even trying to score

Oh oh I can feel the magic of your touch

And when you move in close a little bit means so much

Ooh yeah, you've got to understand baby

Time out is what I'm here for

 

One on one I wanna play that game tonight

One on one I know I wanna play that

One on one I wanna play that game tonight

One on one so slow

 

You can't tell me you don't miss me girl

I think I might know you too well

Wonder what you'd say if you knew that I was coming tonight

Want to? I want you can't you tell

 

One on one I wanna play that game tonight

One on one I know I wanna play that

One on one I wanna play that game tonight

One on one so slow

That's all you need to know now

 

'Cause if it's really right there's nothing else

One on one I want to play that game tonight...

CRASH INTO ME

By: Dave Matthews Band

 

You've got your ball, you've got your chain

Tied to me tight, tie me up again

Who's got the clause in you, my friend?

Into your heart, heart beat again.

 

Sweet like candy to my soul

Sweet you rock and sweet you roll

Lost for you,

I'm so lost

For you

 

Aww when you come crash

Into me

And I come into you

And I come into you

In a boy's dream

 

Touch your lips just so I know

In your eyes, love, it glows

So I'm bare-boned and crazy

For you

 

Aww when you come crash

Into me, yeah

Baby

And I come into you

In a boy's dream

In a boy's dream

 

Ooh, if I've gone overboard

Then I'm begging you to forgive me

Oh, in my haste

And I'm holding you so, girl,

Close to me

 

And you come crash into me, yeah

Baby

And I come into you

 

Awww, hike up your skirt a little more

And show the world to me

Hike up your skirt a little more

And show your world to me

 

Oh I watch you there

Through the window and I stare

You wear nothing

But you wear it so well

Tied up and twisted, the way I like to be

For you, for me

Come crash into me

 

Crash into me

Crash into me

Crash into me

Whoa

 

I'm the king of the castle

You're the dirty rascal

Crash into me

Please crash into me, baby
