Anymore
I don't know you anymore
I don't have you as before
As the years go by the tears I cry
Will cease to be reality
I don't know you anymore
I can't take it anymore
I can't see beyond the door
If I had the time to fill your mind
I'd give you soul and rock 'n' roll
I can't take it anymore
You must realize
I'm not responsible for what I do
'Cos my inner soul has taken control
And is driving me out of my mind
I won't tell you anymore
I won't say it as before
I will turn my pain to clouds of rain
And let it pour forever more
I don't love you anymore

'Cos I Love You
I don't know if I mean what I say
After all words just get in my way
I have tried but you know it just won't do
'Cos I love you and I love you so
But I can't let you know oh woman
There will be times when it seems
like I don't care
But please remember
the love I want to share
And I'll remember
the things you like to do
'Cos I love you and I love you so
But I can't let you know oh woman
Oh my woman oh my woman
Listen to me when I call your name
Help me through it, girl, 'cos
things are not the same
And in my mind
your love is running through
'Cos I love you and I love you so
But I can't let you know
and I won't let you go
Oh no, oh no

'Cos I need ya so and girl don'tcha know
that I love you

Deep In Love
When I saw her sitting there
I knew that I never would forget her
From the start she had my heart
And now every day it's getting better
And deep in love is how I feel inside
And deep in love so long before denied
Later on when friends have gone
Knowing she would never let me tease her Hold her tight all through the night
Doing everything I can to please her
And deep in love is how she feels inside
And deep in love so long before denied
Neither know just where to go
Or what to do or say or show each other
I can feel our love is real
Knowing there will never be another
And deep in love is how we feel inside
And deep in love so long before denied

Knight Ballad
Once rode a knight in armor black
with a sword no stone could bend
He tortured all the countryside
of which there was no end
A peasant came up to the knight
and begged of him to stop
The bold knight said "I'll have your head"
and did so with a chop
At this the people cried aloud
"oh mercy, pray thee cease"
The laughter echoed far and near
"as I live there'll be no peace"
To seek the help of neighbors near
another slipped away
The deviled one soon spotted him
and then said "thee I'll slay"
At this he drew his mighty sword
and raised it to the clouds
And as the sword ran through his heart
the peasant screamed aloud
"May you be damned for what you've
done for soon I shall return
To take your soul to Satan's home
where your cold heart shall burn"
At this the killer only laughed
for he did not believe
He slew three other helpless souls
and told the rest to leave
At this the countryside grew bare
of every man and child
The knight demanded quietness
so no one dared to be wild
The prince of darkness fell asleep
but soon he wakened fast
For in a dream he heard the words
"beware, I've come at last"
It was the ghost who'd cursed the knight
and hell lay through the door
And to this day throughout the land
the knight was seen no more

Help Me, Please
Help me, please I'm down on the floor
Help me, please can't take anymore
It's been a long time
Since I've been well
I may feel better tomorrow
Only time will tell
Only time will tell
Help me, please it's not much to ask
Help me, please to strip off my mask
My days are so different
They're all rearranged
It's hard to recognize the truth
It seems so very strange
Seems so very strange
Help me, please don't turn away
Help me, please tell me you'll stay

Wishing
When my love is far away
I feel like a cloudy day
And I'm wishing that you'd come home
When I cannot see you smile
The days seem endless all the while
And I'm wishing that you'd come home
And tomorrow when I see your face
My heart may be in another place
But you will know exactly how I feel
And if you would say that you'd be mine
Then all my wishes I would find
That suddenly they were very real
When I finally decide
My love for you I cannot hide
I'll be wishing that you'd come home
Come on home

Pin-Ball Freak
I'm a freak on pin-ball
though I'm not a wizard yet
I play for fun and honor but
I take whatever I can get
The flippers show my style as they
send the ball back to the top
I sacrificed my money now
I'm winning and I cannot stop
I gotta have a good time
I gotta win a game
I gotta show the others
I gotta save my name
You know I gotta save my name
We had an all-night tourney
I got to choose my best machine
The others couldn't touch me and
they said I was the best they'd seen
So if you play the body-table
practice and you can't be beat
It's fun to be a winner and
it's good to be a pin-ball freak
I'm gonna have a good time
I'm gonna win a game
I'm gonna show the others
I'm gonna save my name
You know I'm gonna save my name
You know I'm gonna save my name

If This Is Love
What is this feeling deep within my bones
Won't let me be happy
won't leave me alone
Before I could cope with life's realities
But now I'm changing over and
falling to my knees
If this is love I don't need it
I'd rather be a stone
If this is love I don't want it
So leave me alone
Cracking in my brain and
ringing through my spine
Let me live without you
give me back my mind
For knowing there will come a day
when we must part
I want to keep on living
so give me back my heart
If this is love I don't need it
I'd rather be a stone
If this is love I don't want it
So leave me alone

Every Friday Night
Monday always gets me down
heavy on my mind
Tuesday's just another drag
only wastes my time
Wednesday I can hardly take it
feeling kinda blue
Thursday's almost over and
I'm gonna be with you
Every Friday night I feel alright
You bring me to my feet
I believe it's true a night with you
Will make my world complete
Saturday I go insane
wishing you were here
Sunday and I'm all alone
wishing you were near
Starting over once again
got to make it through
Waiting for the special night
I will spend with you
Every Friday night I feel alright
You bring me to my feet
And you know it's true a life with you
Will make my life complete

A Song For Sue
Goddess of reality
Tell me what you mean to me
Is there something I should see
that I don't
Lovely lady in disguise
Let me look into your eyes
If love comes to only lies then I won't
Love for me is something new
Something I can share with you
Without all will never do
Can't you see
When you softly hold me tight
I can brave the darkest night
For in your heart there shines a light
shows the way
With a kiss I tell you so
Speak and let my feelings go
And I'm gonna let you know every day
Smile and tell me that you care
Help me to become aware
Let me know your love is there
Just for me

My World
My world is changing every day
Living so different in every way
Nothing's the same it's all a new game
But love will remain in my heart
Your world arranging
thoughts in my head
Things you have done and
words you have said
Fill up my mind leaving me blind
I'm hoping to find what it is
People I know and places to go
bring memories to mind
But that's yesterday and this is today
And suddenly I find
I'm happy 'cos you're mine
In love and feeling fine
Our world is changing all of the time
It's getting better in both of our minds
As good as can be both you and me
I think will agree
that it's love love love love

Look
Look around you tell me who do you see
Look around you do you know that it's me
I'm right beside you in all you do
I'm here to guide you to make it through
And I, I love you
Look inside you
tell me what's on your mind
Look inside you
do you know what you'll find
You're not as lonely as you may seem
You're just the only girl in my dreams
And I, I love you
For only you
And only me too will do
Do you remember the other night
You held me close I held you tight
Oh I can't the first time that we met
And I remember yet holding you
Look into me tell me what can I be
Look into me do you know what you see
We're only lovers together as one
We're all the others we've just begun
And I, I love you

I Will Go Away
I still remember what you said to me
I still remember you were bad to me
But I won't take it anymore
I will leave you and close the door
I will go away but I'll come back someday
You should have said
you would not be true
You should have said what you needed to
But you lied girl and I believed
Now it's gone and I feel relieved
I will go away but I'll come back someday
For the love we had was nothing bad
Instead it was something good
But you lost your head
and the words you said
Were words that you never should
You know you don't mean them
Now in the evenings
when I call your name
Now in the evenings girl I go insane
But I won't let my feelings show
I will hide them so no one knows
I will go away but I'll come back someday
I will go away

I Still Love You
Seeing you now
Remembering how
When I once loved you
Sitting so close
And nobody knows
That I still love you
What we had before has been gone
For such a long long time
Still each day I find it hard to erase
Your memory from my mind
Watching you leave
It's making me grieve
'Cos I still love you
Seeing your smile
I know all the while
That I still love you

Love For Me Is You
What can I say about you
Except I can't live without
the little things you do
And love for you is me
What can I do around you
When I'm so glad I found out
that we'll always be
And love for me is you
Love is in the air you breathe
Love is here to stay
Love is all you really need
To chase your blues away
What can I be inside, love
If I can't be beside you when I need to be
And love for me is you
Love is in the air you breathe
Love is here to stay
Love is all you really need
To chase your blues away
What can I be inside, love
If I can't be beside you when I need to be
And love for me is you

I Wanna (And Yet)
I wanna live and yet I wanna die
I wanna tell you and yet I've got to lie
I wanna show you and yet I cannot say
I wanna stay here and yet I run away
I wanna love you
and yet you don't want me
I wanna end it and yet I wanna be
I wanna have you and yet I wanna go
I wanna know you and yet what do I know
I wanna make you
and yet it's looking down
I wanna see you
and yet you're not around
I wanna stop it and yet it's now too late
I wanna forget you and yet I cannot wait
I wanna love you
and yet you don't want me
I wanna end it and yet I wanna be
I wanna have you and yet I wanna go
I wanna know you and yet what do I know

Light Of Love
Out of the darkness
there shines a broken light
Shines not too strong
and shines not too bright
But it shines for all of those
who share in love
Let it shine on me
The love light begins
as the smallest of flames
Which must be kindled and finally tamed
And forever to glow for the ones who love
Let it glow for me
Only when you have it
can you give it away
Only when you give it can you feel
Only when you lose it can you realize
What you had to lose
was something real
As the flame grows stronger with
every passing day
One becomes the other
in each and every way
And to those who may smile and
say it must be love
Let them smile on me
Let it glow for me
Let it shine on me
The light of love

Now That It's Over
Now, now that it's over
I love you more more than ever
Since you've been gone my heart
just can't get over
The love I feel for you inside forever
Since that night not long ago
When I realized that we were apart
There's been an emptiness in my heart
The loneliness that swallows me
And makes me feel like an actor in a part
When I see you now
having fun and smiling
(smiling, smiling)
I don't see any hurt in your eyes
But I can't get away from the hurt
inside me oh no
And whenever I go to look
I can only see with empty eyes
But now, now that it's over
I still love you more more than ever
Since you've been gone my heart
just can't get over
The love I feel for you inside forever
The love I feel for you inside forever

Season Of Love
Spring is the season of love
Life is in the air everywhere
And I see it
Summer is the season of love
Warmth is on the ground all around
And I feel it
Fall is the season of love
Parting of the leaves from the trees
And I know it
Winter is the season of love
Snowing in the night what a sight
And I hear it
Today is the season of love
The sun is in my heart what a start
And I love it

Bores Me To Death
Hear of the troubles that others may have
The troubles that I have myself
Wondering if they will make it alright
And will I as everyone else
I'm yawning and yearning and
tossing and turning
A restless sound on my breath
Whatever I do and no matter with whom
You know it bores me to death
Listen to people who talk all their lives
Wanting to shut off my ears
Few are the times when they
say what they mean
But they know that nobody hears
They're chitting and chatting and
spitting and spatting
When all the others have left
But still I'm around and every sound
You know it bores me to death

My Love, I Love You More
Even though I love my beard
I'll shave it off for you
Cut off both my sideburns and
trim my mustache too
I'll even cut my two-foot hair and
this I'll do for sure
For though I love to be a freak
my love, I love you more
Even though I wear no shoes
I'll buy a brand new pair
Brush my teeth and clean my nails and
even comb my hair
I'll wear a suit instead of jeans and
you know what it's for
'Cos though I love to be a freak
my love, I love you more
Even though I ride a bike
I'll trade it for a car
Never drink or take a drug
so I'll know where you are
I'll even sell my sweet guitar
for now it's just a bore
And though I used to love these things
my love, I love you more

She's Going Home
Yesterday I met her
when I was down and out
I guess we showed each other
what love was all about
She took my mind and took my soul and
made me realize
That love can be a different word
in everybody's eyes
Today as I still love her
my heart can't understand
How she can say she loves me
but loves another man
I told her once and told her twice
my love I cannot share
But still she loves the two of us
as if she didn't care
Now she's going home
to the guy she knew before
And though I love her more
she's going home
Tomorrow when I see her
I wonder what she'll say
Will everything still be the same
as when she went away
Or will her love belong to me
and not to someone else
But if it doesn't then I'll know
I've only hurt myself
Now she's going home
to the guy she knew before
And though I love her more
she's going home
