Don't even ask me why, because I haven't got a clue. It was just suddenly there this morning...


There's a lot of ways of saying
What I wanna say to you
There's songs and poems and promises
And dreams that might come true
But I won't talk of starry skies
Or moonlight on the ground
I'll come right out and tell you
I'd just love to lay you down

Lay you down and softly whisper
Pretty love words in your ear
Lay you down and tell you all the things
A woman loves to hear
I'll let you know how much it means
Just havin' you around
Oh, darlin', how I'd love to lay you down

There's so many ways your sweet love's
Made this house into a home
You've got a way of doing
Little things that turn me on
Like standing in the kitchen
In your faded cotton gown
With your hair all up in curlers
I still love to lay you down

Lay you down and softly whisper
Pretty love words in your ear
Lay you down and tell you all the things
A woman loves to hear
I'll let you know how much it means
Just havin' you around
Oh, darlin' how I'd love to lay you down

When a whole lot of Decembers
Are showin' in your face
Your auburn hair has faded
And silver takes it's place
You'll be just as lovely and I'll still be around
And if I can't I know that
I'd still love to lay you down

Lay you down and softly whisper
Pretty love words in your ear
Lay you down and tell you all the things
A woman loves to hear
I'll let you know how much it means
Just havin' you around
Oh, darlin' how I'd love to lay you down

Lay you down and softly whisper
Pretty love words in your ear
Lay you down and tell you all the things
My woman loves to hear
I'll let you know how much it means
Just havin' you around
Oh, darlin' how I love to lay you down

Lay you down and softly whisper
Pretty love words in your ear
Lay you down and tell you all the things
My woman loves to hear
I'll let you know how much it means
Just havin' you around...

Sir William Marcus

Well you say you got the blues,

Got holes in both of your shoes,

Feelin alone and confused,

You got to keep on smilin, keep on smilin


Yeah, you're about to go insane,

Cause your womans playing games

And she says that you're to blame,

You got to keep on smilin, keep on smilin


Keep on smilin through the rain, laughin at the pain

Rollin with the changes til the sun comes out again

Keep on smilin through the rain, laughin at the pain

Rollin with the changes, singin this refrain


Singin in a honky tonk cafe,

Nobody's hearin what you play,

They're too busy drinkin anyway,

You got to keep on smilin, keep on smilin

Brother keep on smiling


You say you found a peace of land

Gonna change from city boy to country man

Try to build your life with your hands

You got to keep on smilin, keep on smilin


Chorus


You're just hangin out in a local bar,

And you're wonderin who the hell you are

Are you a bum or are you a star?


Chorus
VENI, VIDI, VELCRO! Spelling and grammatical errors are beyond my control, it's the way I'm wired.

I went down to the station, just to take a ride.
I went down to the station, just to take a ride.
Found myself on a flatcar, yesterday behind.

Pullin' out from the platform, there was no brass band.
I pulled out from the platform, nobody raised a hand.
And there were no tears of regret from my runaway train.
Train, train, train, train.

Got no sand in my pocket, you know I ain't tied down.
Ain't no sand in my pocket, never do sit down.
I'm just a cross-tie walker, where the freight trains run.
Run, run, run, run.

If you see me acomin', don't you waste my time.
If you see me acomin', don't you waste my time.
'Cause there's more miles between us than the Santa Fe Line.
Run, run, run, run.

Man it's a hot one
Like seven inches from the midday sun
I hear you whispering the words that melt everyone
But you stay so cool
My muñequita, my Spanish Harlem Mona Lisa
You're my reason for reason
The step in my groove


And if you said this life ain't good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I could change my life to better suit your mood
Cause you're so smooth


And just like the ocean under the moon
Well it's the same as the emotion that I get from you
You got the kind of lovin that can be so smooth
Give me your heart, make it real
Or else forget about it

I'll tell you one thing
If you would leave it would be a crying shame
In every breath and every word I hear your name callin' me out, yeah
Out from the barrio, you hear my rhythm from your radio
You feel the turning of the world so soft and slow
Turning you round and round


And if you said this life ain't good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I could change my life to better suit your mood
'Cause your so smooth


And it's just like the ocean under the moon
Well it's the same as the emotion that I get from you
You got the kinda lovin' that can be so smooth, yeah
Give me your heart, make it real
Or else forget about it

(guitar solo)


And it's just like the ocean under the moon
Well, that's the same emotion that I get from you
You got the kinda lovin' that can be so smooth, yeah
Gimmie your heart, make it real
Or else forget about it

Or else forget about it...
Or else forget about it...
Or else go and forget about it...
Gimmie your heart, make it real
Or else forget about it, oh oh now let's go and forget about it...
Or else forget about it, oh oh now let's go and forget about it...
Now now now, let's go and forget about it...

(or else forget about it, or else forget about it, or else forget about it)

I am stretched on your grave
and will lie there forever
if your hands were in mine
I'd be sure we'd not sever
my apple tree my brightness
it's time we were together
for I smell of the earth
and am worn by the weather

when my family thinks
that I'm safe in my bed
from night until morning
I am streteched at your head
calling out to the air
with tears hot and wild
my grief for the girl
that I loved as a child

do you remember
the night we were lost
in the shade of the blackthorn
and the chill of the frost
thanks be to Jesus
we did what was right
and your maiden head still
is your pillar of light

the priests and the friars
approach me in dread
because I still love you
my love and you're dead
I still would be your shelter
through rain and through storm
and with you in your cold grave
I cannot sleep warm

so I'm stretched on your grave
and will lie there forever
if you hands were in mine
I'd be sure we'd not sever
my apple tree my brightness
it's time we were together
for I smell of the earth
and am worn by the weather.

Tell you 'bout a dream that I have every night
Tell you 'bout a Dream that I have every night
It ain't Kodachrome and it isn't black and white
Take me for a fool if you feel that's right
Well I'm Never on my own but there's nobody in sight

I don't know if I'm scared of the lightning
Trying to reach me
I can't turn to the left or the right
I'm too scared to run and I'm too weak to fight
But I don't care it's all psychobabble rap to me

Tell you 'bout a dream that I have every night
It's in Dolby stereo but I never hear it right
Take me for a fool well that's alright
Well I see the way to go but there isn't any light

I don't know why I'm scared of the lightning
Trying to reach me
Help me to find what I don't wanna know
You're taking me There but I don't wanna go
I don't care it's all Psychobabble rap to me
Psychobabble all psychobabble
Psychobabble all psychobabble
I don't care it's all psychobabble rap to me

You're readin' my mind you won't look in my eyes
You say I do things that I don't realise
But I don't care it's all psychobabble rap to me
Psychobabble all psychobabble
Psychobabble all psychobabble
You're lighting a scene that's faded to black
I threw it away cause I don't want it back
But I don't care it's all psychbabble rap

I just want to be Layla.....

Malkavian

From the coast of gold, across the seven seas,
I'm traveling on, far and wide,
But now it seems, I'm just a stranger to myself,
And all the things I sometimes do, it isn't me but someone else.

I close my eyes, and think of home,
Another city goes by, in the night,
Ain't it funny how it is, you never miss it til it's gone away,
And my heart is lying there and will be til my dying day.

So understand
Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted years,
Face up...make your stand,
And realize you're living in the golden years.

Too much time on my hands, I got you on my mind,
Can't ease this pain, so easily,
When you can't find the words to say, it's hard to make it through another day,
And it makes me wanna cry, and throw my hands up to the sky.

So understand
Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted years,
Face up...make your stand,
And realize you're living in the golden years.

Rosanna's daddy had a car she loved to drive
Stole the keys one night and took me for a ride
Turned up the music just as loud as it could go
Blew out the speakers in her daddy's radio

She was shakin'
Snappin' her fingers
She was moving round and round
That girl was shakin'

We started drinkin', weren't thinkin' too straight
She was doin' 80 and she slammed on the brakes
Got so high we had to pull to the side
We did some shakin' till the middle of the night

Shakin'
Snappin' her fingers
She was up and down and round and round
Shakin'

Shakin'

(solo)

I got real nervous
When she took her coat off
She looked so pretty
Aah yeah

I'm always talkin' baby, talkin' too much
I love that little girl and I just can't get enough
It takes a lonely night with nowhere to go
Just call Rosanna, it's a hell of a show

Shakin'
Snappin' her fingers
She'll be moving round and round
Oh, she's shakin'

Shakin'
Snappin' her fingers
She'll be moving up and down and round and round and round
And shakin'

Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh she was shakin'
Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh she was shakin'
Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh she was shakin'
Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh she was shakin'

In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine
Can't you just feel the moonshine
Ain't it just like a friend of mine
To hit me from behind
Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

Karen she's a silver sun
You best walk her way and watch it shinin'
Watch her watch the mornin' come
A silver tear appearing now I'm cryin'
Ain't I goin' to Carolina in my mind

There ain't no doubt in no one's mind
That love's the finest thing around
Whisper something soft and kind
And hey babe the sky's on fire, I'm dyin'
Ain't I goin' to Carolina in my mind

In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine
Can't you just feel the moonshine
Ain't it just like a friend of mine
To hit me from behind
Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

Dark and silent late last night
I think I might have heard the highway calling
Geese in flight and dogs that bite
Signs that might be omens say I'm going, going
I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

With a holy host of others standing 'round me
Still I'm on the dark side of the moon
And it seems like it goes on like this forever
You must forgive me
If I'm up and goin' to Carolina in my mind

In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine
Can't you just feel the moonshine
Ain't it just like a friend of mine
To hit me from behind
Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

Goin' to Carolina in my mind
And I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind
Goin' to Carolina in my mind

(Goin')
(I'm goin')
(Say nice things about me 'cause I'm goin' southbound)
(Carry on with out me 'cause I'm goin')

Carry me, caravan, take me away.
Take me to Portugal, take me to Spain,
Andalusía with fields full of grain
I have to see you again and again.

Take me, Spanish Caravan,
Yes, I know you can.

Trade winds find galleons lost in the sea
I know where treasure is waiting for me.
Silver and gold in the mountains of Spain
I have to see you again and again.

Take me, Spanish caravan,
Yes, I know you can.
