    "Let Me Love You"

    Sometimes I close my eyes
    And imagine you're with me
    Chasing passion into the night
    All tangled in a dream.

    Oh if you could see my heart
    The way I feel inside
    You would know just how far
    I'm willing to go to get to you
    There is nothing I won't do.

    Show me what its like to lose control
    Free the desire in your soul
    Oh oh let me love you.

    Let me take you to a place like no where else
    Show you the things you never felt
    Oh oh let me love you.

    Oh I want to taste your kiss
    Be the reason for your smile
    Touch the magic on your skin
    Be the one that drives you wild.

    Oh if you could read my mind
    You'd know you're everything I need
    You'd see yourself through my eyes
    You may understand what I'm going through
    Just how much I want you.

    Show me what its like to lose control
    Free the desire in your soul
    Oh oh let me love you.

    Let me take you to a place like no where else
    Show you the things you never felt
    Oh oh let me love you.

    Let me love you.
    Let me love you!

    Show you what its like to lose control
    Free the desire in your soul
    Oh oh let me love you.

    Let me take you to a place like no where else
    Show you the things you never felt
    Oh oh let me love you.

    Oh I love you.

    Show you what its like to lose control
    Free the desire in your soul
    Oh oh let me love you.

    Yeah baby.

    Let me take you to a place like no where else
    Show you the things you never felt
    Oh oh let me love you.

    Let me love you.
    Let me love you.
    Let me love you.
    Let me love you.

    • Two For Tuesday; Jethro Tull

      Cross-Eyed Mary

      Who would be a poor man, a beggarman, a thief --
      if he had a rich man in his hand.
      And who would steal the candy
      from a laughing baby's mouth
      if he could take it from the money man.
      Cross-eyed Mary goes jumping in again.
      She signs no contract
      but she always plays the game.
      Dines in Hampstead village
      on expense accounted gruel,
      and the jack-knife barber drops her off at school.
      Laughing in the playground -- gets no kicks from little boys:
      would rather make it with a letching grey.
      Or maybe her attention is drawn by Aqualung,
      who watches through the railings as they play.
      Cross-eyed Mary finds it hard to get along.
      She's a poor man's rich girl
      and she'll do it for a song.
      She's a rich man stealer
      but her favour's good and strong:
      She's the Robin Hood of Highgate --
      helps the poor man get along.

      Locomotive Breath

      In the shuffling madess
      of the locomotive breath,
      runs the all-time loser,
      headlong to his death.
      He feels the piston scraping --
      steam breaking on his brow --
      old Charlie stole the handle and
      the train won't stop going --
      no way to slow down.
      He sees his children jumping off
      at the stations -- one by one.
      His woman and his best friend --
      in bed and having fun.
      He's crawling down the corridor
      on his hands and knees --
      old Charlie stole the handle and
      the train won't stop going --
      no way to slow down.
      He hears the silence howling --
      catches angels as they fall.
      And the all-time winner
      has got him by the balls.
      He picks up Gideons Bible --
      open at page one --
      old Charlie stole the handle and
      the train won't stop going --
      no way to slow down.




      Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

        One More Day


        Last night I had a crazy dream, a wish was grated just for me.
        It could be for any thing. I didn't ask for money or a mansion in Malibu.
        I simply wished for one more day with you.

        One more day, one more time, one more sunset maybe I'd be satisifed, but then
        again, I know what it would do, leave me wishin still for one more day with you.
        One more day

        First thing I'd do is pray for time to crawl. I'd unplug the telephone and
        keep the T.V. off. I'd hold you every second, say a million I love you's,
        that's what I'd do with one more day with you.

        One more day, one more time, one more sunset maybe I'd be satisified, but then
        again, I know what it would do, leave me wishin still for one more day with you.
        One more day, one more time, one more sunset maybe I'd be satisified, but then

        I'm Already There


        He called her on the road
        From a lonely cold hotel room
        Just to hear her say I love you one more time
        But when he heard the sound
        Of the kids laughing in the background
        He had to wipe away a tear from his eye
        A little voice came on the phone
        Said "Daddy when you coming home"
        He said the first thing that came to his mind

        I'm already there
        Take a look around
        I'm the sunshine in your hair
        I'm the shadow on the ground
        I'm the whisper in the wind
        I'm your imaginary friend
        And I know I'm in your prayers
        Oh I'm already there

        She got back on the phone
        Said I really miss you darling
        Don't worry about the kids they'll be alright
        Wish I was in your arms
        Lying right there beside you
        But I know that I'll be in your dreams tonight
        And I'll gently kiss your lips
        Touch you with my fingertips
        So turn out the light and close your eyes

        I'm already there
        Don't make a sound
        I'm the beat in your heart
        I'm the moonlight shining down
        I'm the whisper in the wind
        And I'll be there until the end
        Can you feel the love that we share
        Oh I'm already there

        We may be a thousand miles apart
        But I'll be with you wherever you are

        I'm already there
        Take a look around
        I'm the sunshine in your hair
        I'm the shadow on the ground
        I'm the whisper in the wind
        And I'll be there until the end
        Can you feel the love that we share
        Oh I'm already there
        Oh I'm already
        There

          change the world



          If I can reach the stars,
          Pull one down for you,
          Shine it on my heart
          So you could see the truth:


          That this love I have inside
          Is everything it seems.
          But for now I find
          It's only in my dreams.


          And I can change the world,
          I will be the sunlight in your universe.
          You would think my love was really something good,
          Baby if I could change the world.


          And if I could be king,
          Even for a day,
          I'd take you as my queen;
          I'd have it no other way.


          And our love would rule
          This kingdom we had made.
          Till then I'd be a fool,
          Wishing for the day...


          That I can change the world,
          I would be the sunlight in your universe.
          You would think my love was really something good,
          Baby if I could change the world.
          Baby if I could change the world.


          I could change the world,
          I would be the sunlight in your universe.
          You would think my love was really something good,
          Baby if I could change the world.
          Baby if I could change the world.
          Baby if I could change the world

          sunshine Of Your Love

          It's getting near dawn,
          When lights close their tired eyes.
          I'll soon be with you my love,
          To give you my dawn surprise.
          I'll be with you darling soon,
          I'll be with you when the stars start falling.


          I've been waiting so long
          To be where I'm going
          In the sunshine of your love.


          I'm with you my love,
          The light's shining through on you.
          Yes, I'm with you my love,
          It's the morning and just we two.
          I'll stay with you darling now,
          I'll stay with you till my seas are dried up.


          Chorus

          Repeat Second Verse


          I've been waiting so long
          I've been waiting so long
          I've been waiting so long
          To be where I'm going
          In the sunshine of your love

          • Triple Shot Thursday; AC-DC

            I just noticed, and now it makes perfect sense.
            I'm the Heir Apparent to Einstein's burden.



            Ain't No Fun (waiting Round to Be a Millionaire) - AC-DC


            the following is a true story
            only the names have been changed
            to protect the guilty -

            well i left my job in my home town
            and i headed for the smoke
            got a rock 'n' roll band and a fast right hand
            gonna get to the top
            nothing's gonna stop us, no nothing

            so if you've got the money, we've got the sound
            you put it up and we'll put it down
            if you got the dollar, we got the song
            just wanna boogie woogie all night long
            yeh boogie

            i got holes in my shoes
            i got holes in my teeth
            i got holes in my socks
            i can't get no sleep
            i'm trying to make a million

            and i got patches on the patches
            on my old blue jeans
            well they used to be blue
            when they used to be new
            when they used to be clean

            but i've got a momma whose a hummer [and i've got a mama, whose a hummer]
            whose keeping me alive [[just] keepin' me alive]
            while i'm in the band doing drinking with the boys [while i'm doin' drinkin
            she's working 9 to 5 [with the boys]
            [she] knows her place that woman

            just you wait -
            one of these days see me driving round town
            in my rock 'n' rolls royce with the sun roof down
            my bottle of booze
            no summer time blues
            shouting out, "look at me"
            in my rock 'n' roll voice

            ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire
            repeat

            "hey hello howard, how you doin', my next door neighbour?"
            "oh yea... get your ****in' jumbo jet off my airport"

            party gonna happen at the union hall
            shaking to the rhythm 'til everybody fall
            picking up my woman in my chevrolet
            glory halleluja gonna rock the night away

            i'm gonna roll roll roll
            i'm gonna roll roll roll
            i'm gonna take this town, turn it around
            i'm gonna roll roll roll

            now there's a blue suede bopping on a high heeled shoe
            balling 'round together like a wrecking crew

            You Shook Me All Night Long - AC-DC


            She was a fast machine
            She kept her motor clean
            She was the best damn woman I had ever seen
            She had the sightless eyes
            Telling me no lies
            Knockin' me out with those American thighs
            Taking more than her share
            Had me fighting for air
            She told me to come but I was already there

            'Cause the walls start shaking
            The earth was quaking
            My mind was aching
            And we were making it and you -

            CHORUS:
            Shook me all night long
            Yeah you shook me all night long

            Working double time
            On the seduction line
            She was one of a kind, she's just mine all mine
            She wanted no applause
            Just another course
            Made a meal out of me and came back for more
            Had to cool me down
            To take another round
            Now I'm back in the ring to take another swing

            'Cause the walls were shaking
            The earth was quaking
            My mind was aching
            And we were making it and you -

            CHORUS

            And knocked me out and then you
            Shook me all night long
            You had me shakin' and you
            Shook me all night long
            Yeah you shook me
            Well you took me

            You reall took me and you
            Shook me all night long
            Ooooh you
            Shook me all night long
            Yeah, yeah, you
            Shook me all night long

            Your really took me and you
            Yeah you shook me, yeah you shook me
            All night long.

            • I can't come up with lyrics I'm afraid, but I just heard that 40 years ago today, The Rolling Stones gave their first concert. It was at Marquee Club in London.

              I thought maybe some of you music freaks would want to know.

                Blue Moon



                Blue moon,
                You saw me standing alone,
                Without a dream in my heart,
                Without a love of my own.

                Blue moon,
                You knew just what I was there for.
                You heard me saying a pray for
                Someone I really could care for.

                Blue moon,
                You saw me standing alone,
                Without a dream in my heart,
                Without a love of my own.

                Blue moon...

                Home is where the heart is
                And my heart is anywhere you are
                Anywhere you are is home
                I don't need a mansion on a hill
                That overlooks the sea
                Anywhere you're with me is home

                Maybe I'm a rolling stone
                Who won't amount to much
                But everything that I hold dear
                Is close enough to touch

                For home is where the heart is
                And my heart is anywhere you are
                Anywhere you are is home

                Maybe I'm a rolling stone

                Is close enough to touch

                That she was meant for only you

                • 'My Life' by Billy Joel. It appeals to me both as a sixteen year-old Scottish boy and as a middle-aged Puerto Rican mother of three...


                  "Got a call from an old friend we used to be real close
                  Said he couldnt go on the American Way
                  Closed the shop, sold a house, bought a ticket to the West Coast
                  Now he gives them a stand-up routine in LA

                  I don't need you to worry for me 'cos im alright
                  I don't want you to tell me its time to come home
                  I don't care what you say anymore this is my life
                  Go ahead with your own life leave me alone

                  I never said you had to offer me a second chance
                  I never said I was a victim of circumstance
                  I still belong, don't get me wrong
                  You can speak your mind but not on my time

                  They will tell you you can't sleep alone in a strange place
                  Then they'll tell you you can't sleep with somebody else
                  Ah but sooner or later you sleep in your own space
                  Either way it's ok you wake up with yourself

                  I don't need you to worry for me 'cos im alright
                  I don't want you to tell me its time to come home
                  I don't care what you say anymore this is my life
                  Go ahead with your own life leave me alone

                  I never said you had to offer me a second chance
                  I never said I was a victim of circumstance
                  I still belong, dont get me wrong
                  You can speak your mind but not on my time

                  I dont care what you say anymore this is my life
                  Go ahead with your own life leave me alone."
                  A witty quote proves nothing. - Voltaire

                    St Elmo's Fire (man in motion)
                    John Parr



                    Growin' up
                    You don't see the writin' on the wall
                    Passin' by
                    Movin' straight ahead you knew it all
                    But maybe sometime if you feel the pain
                    You'll find you're all alone
                    Everything has changed

                    Play the game
                    You know you can't quit until it's won
                    Soldier on
                    Only you can do what must be done
                    You know in some way
                    You're a lot like me
                    You're just a prisoner
                    And you're tryin' to break free

                    CHORUS:
                    I can see a new horizon
                    Underneath the blazin' sky
                    I'll be where the eagle's
                    Flyin' higher and higher
                    Gonna be your man in motion
                    All I need is a pair of wheels
                    Take me where my future's lyin'
                    St. Elmo's Fire

                    Burnin' up
                    Don't know just how far that I can go
                    (Just how far I go)
                    Soon be home
                    Only just a few miles down the road
                    I can make it
                    I know I can
                    You broke the boy in me
                    But you won't break the man

                    (CHORUS)

                    I can climb the highest mountain
                    Cross the wildest sea
                    I can feel St. Elmo's Fire burnin' in me
                    Burnin' in me

                    Just once in his life
                    A man has his time
                    And my time is now
                    And I'm comin' alive

                    I can hear the music playin'
                    I can see the banners fly
                    Feel like you're back again
                    And hope ridin' high
                    Gonna be your man in motion
                    All I need is a pair of wheels
                    Take me where my future's lyin'
                    St. Elmo's Fire

                    (CHORUS)

                    I can climb the highest mountain
                    Cross the wildest sea
                    I can feel St. Elmo's Fire burnin' in me

                    Burnin'
                    Burnin' in me
                    I can feel it burnin'
                    Oooh, burnin' inside of me
                    Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

                      Lene Marlin - Where I'm Headed

                      I've got a suitcase in my hand
                      Filled with stuff most precious to me
                      Sidewalk brings my feet
                      Wherever they're headed.
                      There is no directions given
                      Just some trust in human mind to rely on
                      And to hold on to.
                      Honestly don't know where I'll end up at last
                      Won't even count the days.
                      One thing I sure know I won't move so fast
                      My mind in complete haze.

                      I pass by
                      Don't dare to stop
                      When there's someone I see
                      There's no one here but me
                      I'm fooled by something inside my head.
                      If I lay down now
                      I might seem kinda dead
                      Just keep on wasting time.

                      Scary thoughts and frightening sounds
                      In my mind still I try avoid it
                      Heading through this hope not one-way alley
                      I can't really sense my surroundings
                      Seems to be all dark around.
                      Nothing there, to lighten up my way.
                      Honestly don't know where I'll end up at last
                      Won't even count the days.
                      One thing I sure know I won't move so fast.
                      My mind is complete haze.

                      I pass by
                      Don't dare to stop
                      When there's someone I see
                      There's no one here but me

                        Eric Clapton
                        by Booker T. Jones and William Bell


                        Born under a bad sign.
                        I've been down since I began to crawl.
                        If it wasn't for bad luck,
                        I wouldn't have no luck at all.


                        Bad luck and trouble's my only friend.
                        I've been down ever since I was ten.


                        Chorus

                        You know, wine and women is all I crave.
                        A big bad woman's gonna carry me to my grave.


                        Chorus

                        Repeat First Verse


                        Born under a bad sign.
                        I've been down since I began to crawl.
                        If it wasn't for bad luck,
                        I wouldn't have no luck.
                        If it wasn't for real bad luck,
                        I wouldn't have no luck at all.

                        • Garth Brooks



                          Somewhere Other Than The Night


                          He could see the storm clouds rollin' across the hill
                          He barely beat the rain in from the field
                          And between the backdoor slammin' she heard him say
                          "Damn this rain and damn this wasted day"
                          But she'd been waitin' for this day for oh so long
                          She was standin' in the kitchen with nothin' but her apron on
                          And in disbelief he stood and he stared a while
                          When their eyes met, they both began to smile

                          Somewhere other than the night
                          She needs to hear I love you
                          Somewhere other than the night
                          She needs to know you care
                          She wants to know she's needed
                          She needs to be held tight
                          Somewhere other than the night

                          They spent the day wrapped up in a blanket
                          On the front porch swing
                          He'd come to realize he'd neglected certain things
                          And there are times she feels alone even by his side
                          It was the first time she ever saw him cry

                          Somewhere other than the night
                          She needs to hear I love you
                          Somewhere other than the night
                          She needs to know you care
                          She wants to know she's needed
                          She needs to be held tight
                          Somewhere other than the night

                          To know she's needed
                          She needs to be held tight
                          Somewhere other than the night

                          Standing Outside The Fire


                          We call them cool
                          Those hearts that have no scars to show
                          The ones that never do let go
                          And risk the tables being turned

                          We call them fools
                          Who have to dance within the flame
                          Who chance the sorrow and the shame
                          That always comes with getting burned

                          But you've got to be tough when consumed by desire
                          'Cause it's not enough just to stand outside the fire

                          We call them strong
                          Those who can face this world alone
                          Who seem to get by on their own
                          Those who will never take the fall

                          We call them weak
                          Who are unable to resist
                          The slightest chance love might exist
                          And for that forsake it all

                          They're so hell-bent on giving ,walking a wire
                          Convinced it's not living if you stand outside the fire

                          Standing outside the fire
                          Standing outside the fire
                          Life is not tried, it is merely survived
                          If you're standing outside the fire

                          There's this love that is burning
                          Deep in my soul
                          Constantly yearning to get out of control
                          Wanting to fly higher and higher
                          I can't abide
                          Standing outside the fire

                          Standing outside the fire
                          Standing outside the fire
                          Life is not tried, it is merely survived
                          If you're standing outside the fire

                          Standing outside the fire
                          Standing outside the fire
                          Life is not tried, it is merely survived
                          If you're standing outside the fire

                          That Summer


                          I went to work for her that summer
                          A teenage kid so far from home
                          She was a lonely widow woman
                          Hell-bent to make it on her own
                          We were a thousand miles from nowhere
                          Wheat fields as far as I could see
                          Both needing something from each other
                          Not knowing yet what that might be

                          'Til she came to me one evening
                          Hot cup of coffee and a smile
                          In a dress that I was certain
                          She hadn't worn in quite a while
                          There was a difference in her laughter
                          There was a softness in her eyes
                          And on the air there was a hunger
                          Even a boy could recognize

                          She had a need to feel the thunder
                          To chase the lightning from the sky
                          To watch a storm with all its wonder
                          Written in her lover's eyes
                          She had to ride the heat of passion
                          Like a comet burning bright
                          Rushing headlong in the wind
                          Now where only dreams have been
                          Burning both ends of the night

                          That summer wind was all around me
                          Nothing between us but the night
                          When I told her that I'd never
                          She softly whispered that's alright
                          And then I watched her hands of leather
                          Turn to velvet in a touch
                          There's never been a summer
                          When I have ever learned so much

                          We had a need to feel the thunder
                          To chase the lightning from the sky
                          To watch a storm with all its wonder
                          Written in her lover's eyes
                          She had to ride the heat of passion
                          Like a comet burning bright
                          Rushing headlong in the wind
                          Now where only dreams have been
                          Burning both ends of the night

                          I often think about that summer
                          The sweat, the moonlight and the lace
                          And I have rarely held another
                          When I haven't seen her face
                          And every time I pass a wheat field
                          And watch it dancing with the wind
                          Although I know it isn't real
                          I just can't help but feel
                          Her hungry arms again

                          She had a need to feel the thunder
                          To chase the lightning from the sky
                          To watch a storm with all its wonder
                          Written in her lover's eyes
                          She had to ride the heat of passion
                          Like a comet burning bright
                          Rushing headlong in the wind
                          Now where only dreams have been
                          Burning both ends of the night

                          Rushing in long in the wind
                          Now where only dreams have been
                          Burnin' both ends of the night
                          "If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun." -Katherine Hepburn

                          • JUKE BOX HERO
                            Foreigner

                            Standing in the rain with his head hung low
                            Couldn't get a ticket, it was a sold-out show
                            Heard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scene
                            Put his ear to the wall, then like a distant scream
                            He heard one guitar, just blew him away
                            He saw stars in his eyes, and the very next day
                            Bought a beat up six-string, in a second-hand store
                            Didn't know how to play it, but he knew for sure
                            That one guitar felt good in his hands, didn't take long to understand
                            Just one guitar, swung way down low
                            Was a one way ticket, only one way to go
                            So he started rocking, ain't never gonna stop
                            Gotta keep on rocking, someday gonna make it to the top
                            And be a juke box hero (got stars in his eyes), he's a juke box hero
                            He took one guitar (juke box hero - stars in his eyes)
                            Juke box hero (stars in his eyes), he'll come alive tonight
                            In a town without a name, in a heavy down port
                            Thought he'd cast his own shadow by the backstage door
                            Like a trip through the past, from that day in the rain
                            That one guitar played his whole life chain
                            Now he needs to keep rocking, he just can't stop
                            Gotta keep on rocking, that boy has got to stay on top
                            And be a juke box hero (got stars in his eyes)
                            He's a juke box hero (got stars in his eyes)
                            Yeah a juke box hero (got stars in his eyes)
                            That one guitar (stars in his eyes), he'll come alive, come alive tonight
                            (Solo)
                            Yeah, he's gotta keep rocking, he just can't stop
                            Gotta keep on rocking, that boy has got to stay on top
                            And be a juke box hero (got stars in his eyes)
                            He's a juke box hero (got stars in his eyes)
                            And just one guitar (juke box hero) put stars in his eyes
                            Now he's just a juke box hero
                            Juke box hero, juke box hero, he's got stars in his eyes
                            Stars in his eyes
                            Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

                                FOLSOM PRISON BLUES

                                I hear the train a comin'
                                It's rollin' 'round the bend,
                                And I ain't seen the sunshine,
                                Since, I don't know when,
                                I'm stuck in Folsom Prison,
                                And time keeps draggin' on,
                                But that train keeps a-rollin',
                                On down to San Antone.

                                When I was just a baby,
                                My Mama told me, "Son,
                                Always by a good boy,
                                Don't ever play with guns,"
                                But I shot a man in Reno,
                                Just to watch him die,
                                When I hear that whistle blowin',
                                I hang my head and cry.

                                I bet there's rich folks eatin',
                                In a fancy dining car,
                                They're probably drinkin' coffee,
                                And smokin' big cigars,
                                But I know I had it comin',
                                I know I can't be free,
                                But those people keep a-movin',
                                And that's what tortures me.

                                Well, if they freed me from this prison,
                                If that railroad train was mine,
                                I bet I'd move out over a little,
                                Farther down the line,
                                Far from Folsom Prison,
                                That's where I want to stay,
                                And I'd let that lonesome whistle,
                                Blow my Blues away.

                                Ring of Fire

                                Love is a burnin’ thing,
                                And it makes a fiery ring
                                Bound by wild desire --
                                I fell into a ring of fire.

                                I fell into a burnin’ ring of fire --
                                I went down, down, down
                                And the flames went higher,
                                And it burns, burn, burns,
                                The ring of fir, the ring of fire.

                                The taste of love is sweet
                                When hearts like ours meet.
                                I fell for you like a child --
                                Oh, but the fire ran wild.

                                I fell into a burnin’ ring of fire --
                                I went down, down, down
                                And the flames went higher,
                                And it burns, burn, burns,
                                The ring of fir, the ring of fire.

                                I fell into a burnin’ ring of fire --
                                I went down, down, down,
                                And the flames went higher,
                                And it burns, burn, burns,
                                The ring of fir, the ring of fire.

                                The ring of fire (and Fade)



                                Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.
                                "Hating America is something best left to Mobius. He is an expert Yank hater.
                                He also hates Texans and Australians, he does diversify." ~ Braindead
