1. _ Rain
All i get is rain.
Thunder clouds up above my head.
Storm warning's been posted.
Heavy weather predicted today.
There's a storm on outside.
I've been thinking about the day... it was in late september.
I thought that you would have changed my life but it's only rainy, rainy december.
I get caught in the, i get caught in the rain.
Rain rain go away, come again some other day.
Baby baby, unchain my heart!
Unchain my soul.
Let the sunshine back into my life.
Bring it on, let it roll.
Make the wind blow the clouds away, hey.
All i want is inspiration.
Let the voices within me speak.
But for now it's only rainy, rainy, rainy december.
I've had enough of this rain crying for my pain.
Let in some light again.
Make the day night again.
It's raining in my heart.
The sky is always dark.
The calm before the storm.
There was no time to warn.
Got to keep brewing on.
The water's coming in, into my heart before there was time to warn you.
I can't give up my reason, i love the change in season.

2. _ Stability
Hey, i don't feel so good lately.
I wake up with the thought of you penetrating my head.
Instead, i wanna fill my bed with thoughts of us joined at the heart like we were at the start.
You left me talking to myself, underneath the weather.
No good-bye kiss or long love letter.
Don't orchestrate my life, just be-bop.
Must i take pills for stability?
With you i can hardly speak.
Must i confess to the stress that i feel?
(yes, you must.)
You take me right to the edge.
You take me right to the edge.
I need some more of your time.
I'm not trying to be funny!
If you think i'm a joke you got another thing coming.
When your orders came by phone today... i'm not alone.
I heard you, but what did you say?
So now you're talking to yourself.
Do ya like it?
Well, do you like it any better?
Don't orchestrate my life, just be-bop.
If you are so sophisticated, why am i still denigrated when i should be venerated?
I'm sick and tired of repudiation where upon your orchestration leads to endless complication and causes me great consternation.
Cha cha cha!
You love to dance, but you maintain you're not romantic.
Bla bla bla!
You love to talk, but i'm still out here stranded.
La la la!
You love to sing, but don't you know a different key?
Ha ha ha!
If i'm your last laugh, are you sure the joke's on me?
You don't have to "hubby love" me.
Don't try to chubby shove me.
You don't have to tell me i'm your ultimate honey.
Medicinal value, na na natural cure, don't analyze the 98% pure.
Value for value with no medicinal taste.
He should had a license for that thing below his waist.
Don't ya know the leash laws?
Sittin' on a seesaw, hanging out with bull dogs and assorted pit frogs.
Put him down if ya don't know where he's been.
Pick him up if he's looking too thin.
Don't inhale or derail or curtail.
My train of thoughts overwrought, can't be bought.
You got me talkin' to myself, sweating in my sweater, underneath the weather.
No good-bye kiss or long love letter.
Don't orchestrate my life, just be-bop...

3. _ Teardrops
Teardrops.
Teardrops.
I sit in my room looking out at the rain.
My tears are like crystals.
They cover my windowpane.
I was thinking of our lost romance and how it should have been.
Oh, if we only could start over again.
I know you'll never forgive me dear, for running out on you.
I was wrong to take the chance with somebody new.
I sit in my room looking out at the rain.
My tears are like crystals.
They cover my windowpane.
I know you'll never forgive me dear, for running out on you.
Oh, how i iong to do the things we used to do.
I'm lonely and blue but i'll try to get along without you.
Ah, ah, teardrops, teardrops.
I had to gain faith, hope and charity.
God only knows the boy who will love me.
Oh, if we only could start over, again.

4. _ Communion
I've touched some objects of faith more precious than pieces of eight.
Seen sacred places and ritual ways, but for communion let's go to my place.
I learned to pray on my knees.
Been taken in hand, if you please.
Had my own revelations, ideas about fate, but for communion let's go to my place.
So as the body, so as the blood, sacred as the soul is to love.
Don't be mistaken if you don't understand, divinely simple.
Part of the plan.
Take!
Eat!
This is my body!
I give it to you.
Take!
Drink!
This is my blood.
Do it in remembrance of me (so you won't forget me).
Now, i've been a witness of grace.

5. _ Mood Ring
Where does it start?
Where does it end?
Where's the division in ocean and sand?
Days are quiet, nights are long.
Everything is august, everything is calm.
We're lying here in the heat in suspended animation with a slo-mo beat.
Taken together, taken apart, i feel your excitement.
Take it to heart.
Changes of season, changes of reason, but changes in a mood ring come straight from the heart.
Where does it stand?
Where does it bend?
Where does my love light begin and yours end?
Days are quiet, nights are long.
Everything is august, everything is calm.
We're lying here in the groove in the heat equation.
We don't wanna move.
Light as a feather.
Light in the dark.
I need to feel the beat of your heart.
Changes of season, changes of reason, but changes in a mood ring come straight from the heart.

6. _ Lip Service
I can tell you've got it bottled up inside.
I can tell 'cause it shows in your eyes.
You keep on keeping your secrets inside and i, i will tell you, tell you no lies.
That's my lip service, lip service.
I can tell you heard a lot of this before.
I can tell you've had your fill.
You, you keep yours, and i, i'll keep mine and when we tell stories we'll wait for bedtime.
But the raven still beguiling all my fancy into smiling, straight i wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird and bust and door;
Then, upon the velvet sinking, i betook myself to linking, fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore.
Said the raven, "nevermore."
Your lips are sealed, but your eyes reveal the reason you tell me, the reason you squeal for my lip service, lip service.

7. _ Dog Star Girl
Maybe it's just a twist of light tonight, but the city's so bright, this whole town's in focus.
He'd always call me "baby strange."
He's hold my head and pray for rain.
Oh johnny, let me be your dog star girl.
Let me curl inside.
The fire's just right.
The fire's just right in focus.
But, then he said, "like, anything goes, baby."
But i don't know.
I just don't know.
Do you?
And how'd i ever get to this dead man's town where the rain, where the rain falls down, where the rain falls down forever?
And then he said, "so much for you, so much for me," but i don't see.
No, i don't see.
Do you?
And how'd i ever get to this dead man's town where the rain, where the rain falls down, where the rain falls down forever?
Forever.
Forever.
Forever.
Forever.

8. _ Strike Me Pink
Everytime i meet you at the feet of eros, we'll be in our street clothes and pretend we've never met, and i will tell you, "my name is angel".
When you call me angel i'll freeze like a statuette.
Mmm, they will point and say i look very real.
Yes they will.
I guess we all take turns on the water wheel.
Baby, last night you made me think, now strike me pink.
Maybe you'll bring me a lucky streak.
Well, strike me pink.
So what if our love is tragic; part of a missing link?
Baby your touch is magic.
You strike me pink.
I know that i'm in for a rude awakening.
Only you can make me come from behind the door.
Is it me or the earth that's shaking?
Only you can make me still come back for more.
Mmm, they will point and say i look very real, yes they will.
I guess we all take turns on the water wheel.
Mmm, they will point and say i look very real, yes they will.
I guess we all have turns on the wonder wheel.

9. _ The Fugitive
Give it up baby.
Don't be so mean.
Give it up baby.
Why don't you come clean?
What harm can come from a stolen kiss?
How could ya leave me at a time like this?
Convicted by forbidden bliss, you hit the road like a fugitive.
Give it up baby.
Give it to me.
I said give it up baby.
It's time come clean.
Were we just getting too intimate?
Like falling into a bottomless pit?
Committed crimes are pa-passionate and just when it gets so primitive, you hit the road like a fugitive.
Work me now!
Work me now!
Show me how!
Work me now!
Running scared's no way to live.
Hesitant and tentative.
Something else has got to give.
It can be so primitive!
Oh!
All in one night we'll scheme our way to the heavens.
You're captive in my grip.
You're watching time crawl by.
Attending to my needs.
Emotion boiling over, i count the explosions.
Then you hit the road like a fugitive!
Hey!
Work me now!
Oh baby show me how!
Work me now!
Work me now!
Staring for a moment as i sneak attack.
You run away.
I watch your back.
You got to make your getaway.
You better get it good.
You're just a primitive, a fugitive.
Whoa! i said work me now!
Come on and work me now!
Oh baby, baby, show me how!
I said surrender, surrender give it to me.
Mmm, baby give it up, don't be so mean.
Ah baby baby can't ya, why don'tcha come clean.
Come on and show me how!
Baby, work me now!

10. _ Keep On Going
There'll come a time you need a friend, when disappointment follows you around, and although we scheme in the shallow end, both mice and men continue to be drowned.
So if you're out and get caught in the rain, just give a smile, cast your line out again.
When you are down keep on going.
Determination will change your luck.
Don't look around, no, keep on going.
If you believe that you've had enough then you must keep on going.
Don't ever give up.
And although it's been said before, there is always someone worse off than you.
With the milk of human kindness on the floor your tears will only turn it a shade of blue.

11. _ I Can See Clearly
Daybreak comes alive when i'm with you, boy.
Too late.
Can't survive without you in my world.
Falling down like rain, i hear the thunder.
I've thrown it all away to keep from going under.
I gotta go back, back from the place that has no shame.
I gotta go back to go where the past doesn't show.
I'll take the blame.
I can see clearly now.
I can go all the way.
I can see clearly now that you're near me.
All left.
Gone away.
Open up your eyes.
You've seen yesterday.
Now time to run and hide.
(it comes as no surprise.)

12. _ Standing In My Way
There's a banging in my head.
Every day i'm seeing red.
Feel i can do nothing at all til i break the chains, tear down the wall.
Too many people tell me what to do, what to think, and say.
Now it's time for me to do what i want.
You better get out of my way.
I'm moving out getting out of here.
I can't waste anymore time.
Pack my bags, tie my shoes, before i lose my mind.
You're standing standing in my way.
Well, don't say i didn't tell you.
No one hold me back.
I'm gonna do some climbing.
I'm pulling in the slack.
Lots of things to see and do and none of them include you.
I wrote your name on the bathroom wall.
You won't be lonely, everybody's gonna call.
Aw, you better move!
Too many people tell me what to do, what to think, and say.
Now it's time for me to do what i want.
You better get out of my way.
I'm moving out, getting out of here.
I can't waste anymore time.
Cause i know it's all out there and some of it is mine!
Yeah, that's right.
Better step aside.
Yeah, move it over.
Go on, get out of here.

13. _ My Last Date (with You)
One hour and i'll be leaving you.
I know you're gonna make me blue.
My heart is trembling though and through, 'cause i know very well, i can tell, i can tell this will be my last date with you.
Just can't believe that this could end.
I know i'll never love again.
You'll ask me to be just a friend.
It's as plain as can be.
I can see, i can see this will be my last date with you.
And when you say goodbye, i know i will cry, 'cause i'll know it's my last date with you.
I know you met somebody new.
You'll tell me you and i are through.
My plans and dreams cannot come true.
And when you say goodbye, i know i will cry, 'cause i'll know it's my last date with you.

14. _ Dancing Down The Moon
Night comes a callin', callin' on you.
Slips in behind ya, long overdue.
You'll be dancing down the moon.
Sunlight's blinding shuts my eyes.
Sunset sliding = my time to rise and be dancing down the moon.
You whisper to me "don't fear the dark.
Come closer darlin', you'll feel the spark.
I'll hold you tighter tight as i can, moving together hard as we can."
Sunlight, don't burn me.
Sunlight, be cool.
Moonlight's kind to me.
I'm in night school and i'm dancing down the moon.
Should i watch the night, be dreamless?
Stay away from light, be seen less?
Am i sleeping?
Stay awake all night.
Night comes a crawlin', curlin' round you.
Slips in behind ya, long overdue.
You'll be dancing down the moon.
I love the moonight.
I love the night.
Oh baby, hold me tight now.
I want you near me when it's five o'clock in the morning.
It's hangin' overhead.
We should be home sleepin' or in bed doin' it!
(wish) i had a chart, i'd know what's up ahead but we're still out here holding tight, holding tight instead.
Yeah, yeah, we're dancin', dancin' down the moon.
