                             GUITAR

Gettin' dirty at the club again
Usually round your waist like a chain but then
I got that call so I jumped in my car
I Love U, Baby... but Not like I Love My Guitar
UH UH... Not like I Love My Guitar... No

U couldn't do it all by Urself
U had 2 go and get Somebody Else
U're High enuff 2 call me but U can't reach the bar
I Love U, Baby... but Not like I Love My Guitar
No... Not like I Love My Guitar

I tried 2 warn U that it's hard 2 B a Star
Especially when U're driving other people's car
Woulda Gave U mine Girl but U took it 2 far
I Love U, Baby, just Not like I Love My Guitar
Not like I Love My Guitar

I know U Love Me and U wanna B Friends
And if U don't at least U need 2 Pretend
We're still 2gether even if we don't get that far
I love U, Baby... but Not like I Love This Guitar
I love U, Baby... Not like I Love My Guitar

I Love U Baby and I Wish U Well
I'll write a letter when I learn how 2 spell
Until that day, U can go 2 Hell
I love U, Baby... U know the Rest

Be Good To Yourself

Journey :
Song Lyrics

Runnin' out of self-control
Gettin' close to an overload
Up against a no win situation
Shoulder to shoulder, push and shove
I'm hangin' up my boxin' gloves
I'm ready for a long vacation

Be good to yourself when, nobody else will
Oh be good to yourself
You're walkin' a high wire, caught in a cross fire
Oh be good to yourself

When you can't give no more
They want it all but you gotta say no
I'm turnin' off the noise that makes me crazy
Lookin' back with no regrets
To forgive is to forget
I want a little piece of mind to turn to

Be good to yourself when, nobody else will
Oh be good to yourself
You're walkin' a high wire, caught in a cross fire
Oh be good to yourself
Be good to yourself when, nobody else will

SomeOne Special

http://BabasBoy.gaia.com — Tue, 13 Mar 2007 04:47:12 GMT

                   SomeOne Special

         I've lived life in a single room
         Hiding my scars from the moon
         I dream my dreams in the light

         Rehearse the lines I already know
         Basking in the TV's glow
         And pray that tonight is the night

         Ooh, there's gotta be more than this
         A future hanging on a stranger's kiss
         Could it be I'm not so alone

                       <Chorus 1>:
                I'm someone special
                I'm just in disguise
                I may not be perfect
                In everyone's eyes
                It may not be tomorrow
                But I still believe
                There's someone special
                Waiting out there for me

          I guess the joke hasn't hit me yet
          Cause I'm still waiting on my Juliet
          She must be held up somewhere

             Ooh, she will be the air I breathe
      She'll come for good and never want to leave
             And I'll love her only, I swear

         People say there must be something wrong
             For me to be all alone so long
             And their words hit me like a stone

                        <Chorus 2>:
                I'm someone special
                I'm just in disguise
                I may not be perfect
                In everyone's eyes
                It may not be tomorrow
                But I still believe
                There's someone special
                Waiting out there for me

            Lying in bed in a cold, cold sweat
            Dreaming 'bout women I'll never get
            I won't always be sleeping alone

                            <Chorus 3>:
                   I'm someone special
                   I'm just in disguise
                   I may not be perfect
                 In everyone's eyes
                   It may not be tomorrow
                   But I still believe
                   There's someone special
                   Waiting out there for me

This Heaven

http://BabasBoy.gaia.com — Tue, 26 Dec 2006 21:25:10 GMT

This Heaven

All the pieces fall into place
Where we walk these fields
And I reach out and touch your face
This earthly heaven is enough for me

So break the bread and pour the wine
I need no blessings but I'm counting mine
Life is much more than money buys
When I see the faith in my children's eyes

I've felt the power in a holy place
Wished for comfort when in need
Now I'm here in a state of grace
This earthly heaven is enough for me

So break the bread and pour the wine
I need no blessings but I'm counting mine
Life is much more than money buys
When I see the faith in my children's eyes

Proclaim

By: Rachel Thompson

Verse1

Scream your name from the rooftops

But no one hears a sound

Cuz its 2am again and I can't get to sleep

But I know you'll make my life complete

Chorus

I know you'll save the day

I will proclaim your name

I know you'll hear me say

I will proclaim your name

Alternate chorus

I know you will not stray

I will proclaim your name

I know you'll hear me pray

I will proclaim your name

Verse2

So try and try

Again and again

I'm so sick of failing

I don't know what to do

So I run to you

Chorus repeat

Verse3

Sit here and I wonder

Why you always love

I'm so undeserving

Take you for granted

But there's only love in return

I'm new to this pod and the site but this is a song i wrote a few days ago. Not sure how this posting stuff goes..sorry if it's in the wrong spot. Comment if you like

Third Day \ King Of Glory

Who is this King of Glory that pursues me with his love
And haunts me with each hearing of His softly spoken words
My conscience, a reminder of forgiveness that I need
Who is this King of Glory who offers it to me

Who is this King of angels, O blessed Prince of Peace
Revealing things of Heaven and all its mysteries
My spirit¹s ever longing for His grace in which to stand
Who's this King of glory, Son of God and son of man

His name is Jesus, precious Jesus
The Lord Almighty, the King of my heart
The King of glory

Who is this King of Glory with strength and majesty
And wisdom beyond measure, the gracious King of kings
the Lord of Earth and Heaven, the Creator of all things
Who is this King of Glory, He's everything to me

The Lord of Earth and Heaven, the Creator of all things
He is the King of glory, He's everything to me

I also like another one... i can't remember what it's called, but it begins with...

who is this king of glory,
that pursues me with his love?

I think that question is just wild...

Lovers

(Adam Lopez)

2006-05

Pholk SoulJah Music/ASCAP

I say lovers, don't you see? Your happiness can't rest on me.
For you are your own one true love.
You gotta be the one you're thinking of.
I say lovers, can't you see. You ain't gonna find no one like thee.
For you are you're own one true happiness. And only you baby can make it last.

Let wisdom grow from the garden.
Community bloom here on Mother Earth.
May the purveyors of war and hate be humbled.
And the overprivileged see what this life is really worth.
Allow ourselves good health.
And never in need of 'their' fix.
Let us dance with the herbs of Nature, for our lives are not a business.

So stand up and be heard.
Go take back what is yours by this birth.
Avoid these poisons disguised as food. Embrace those that have roots.
There may be evil in this air we breathe.
But there's magic there too, for you and me.
Take not another pill armed with addiction.
But be healed by these seeds of creation.

Ce he mise le ulaingt? (the two trees)

Tue, 03 Oct 2006 22:37:40 GMT

Beloved, gaze in thine own heart
The holy tree is growing there;
From joy the holy branches start
And all the trembling flowers they bear.
The changing colours of its fruit
Have dowered the stars with merry light;
The surety of its hidden root
Has planted quiet in the night;
The shaking of its leafy head
Has given the waves their melody.
And made my lips and music wed,
Murmuring a wizard song for thee,
There the Loves a circle go,
The flaming circle of our days,
Gyring, spiring to and fro
In those great ignorant leafy ways;
Remembering all that shaken hair
And how the winged sandals dart
Thine eyes grow full of tender care;
Beloved, gaze in thine own heart.

Gaze no more in the bitter glass
The demons, with their subtle guile,
Lift up before us when they pass,
Or only gaze a little while;
For there a fatal image grows
That the stormy night receives,
Roots half hidden under snows,
Broken boughs and blackened leaves.
For all things turn to bareness
In the dim glass the demons hold,
The glass of outer weariness,
Made when God slept in times of old.
There, through the broken branches, go
The ravens of unresting thought;
Flying, crying, to and fro,
Cruel claw and hungry throat,
Or else they stand and sniff the wind,
And shake their ragged wings: alas!
Thy tender eyes grow all unkind:
Gaze no more in the bitter glass.
Beloved, gaze in thine own heart,
The holy tree is growing there;
From joy the holy branches start,
And all the trembling flowers they bear.
Remembering all that shaken hair
And how the winged sandals dart,
Thine eyes grow full of tender care;
Beloved, gaze in thine own heart.

WALLS

WALLS

Some Walls Are Made Of Stone
Sometimes We Build Are Own
Some Walls Stand For Years
Some Wash Away With Tears

Some Walls Are Lined With Gold Where
Some Hearts Stay Safe And Cold
Some Walls Are Made Of Doubt
Holding In And Keeping Out

If There's Any Hope For Love At All
Some Walls Must Fall

Some Walls Are Built On Pride
Some Keep The Child Inside
Some Walls Are Built In Fear That
Love Let Go Will Disappear

If There's Any Hope For Love At All
Some Walls Must Fall

How Will You Ever Know What Might Be Found
Until You Let The Walls Come Tumbling Down

If There's Any Hope For Love At All
Some Walls Must Fall

Endless Dream

http://BabasBoy.gaia.com — Sun, 10 Sep 2006 19:54:19 GMT

Endless Dream

It's all coming back to me now
That strange and almost endless dream
Where I was you and you were me
You opened up your eyes and I could see
That you were falling from the world
As aimless as a shooting star in orbit around me
Thinking I was somebody else
And terrified to look at me and see yourself, well...

You are like a dream
And I am just a trip that you are on
When the trip is over you will go back
To the places that you once beloved
You will look for comfort there
And when you do you'll find that it has gone
That is when you'll dream a dream
Where I am you and you are me
And then you'll know my love

So don't be afraid
Your heart is in me
And it's racing so fast now
Cause everything we ever were or ever will be
Is shapeless as a changing cloud
Your letter written on the sky
I'm needing now to read it through my eyes
When you see just what I see
Then tenderly watch it change
And just let it be

Cause I am like a dream
And you are just a trip that I am on
When the trip is over I will go back
To the places that I once beloved
And I will look for comfort there
And when I do I know it will be gone
That is when I'll dream a dream
Where I am you and you are me
And then I'll know your love

...so quiet now...

This is just some trip that we are on
When the trip is over we will think of this
As someplace that we once beloved
When I find no comfort here
I'll look again to find it in your arms
That is where I'll dream a dream
Where I am you and you are me
And that's where I know love

All Things New

http://BabasBoy.gaia.com — Wed, 30 Aug 2006 03:12:54 GMT

All Things New

You spoke and made the sunrise, to light up the very
first day
You breathed across the water, and started the very
first wave
It was You
You intoduced Your glory, to every living creature on
earth
And they started singing, the first song to ever be
heard
They sang for You

You make all things new
You make all things new

Then the world was broken, fallen and battered and
scarred
You took the hopeless, the life, wasted, ruined and
marred
And made it new

You make all things new
You make all things new
You redeem and You transform
You renew and You restore
You make all things new
You make all things new
And forever we will watch and worship You

You turn winter into spring
You take every living thing
And You breathe Your breath of life into it over and
over again

You make the sunrise, day after day after day
But there's a morning coming, when old things will all
pass away
And everyone will see

You make all things new
You make all things new
Come redeem and come transform
Come renew and come restore
You make all things new
You make all things new
And forever we will watch and worship You

Now and forever You are making all things new
You're making all things new

Hallelujah...

A Heart Can Only Be So Strong

http://BabasBoy.gaia.com — Tue, 29 Aug 2006 14:57:58 GMT

A Heart Can Only Be So Strong

A hundred times I have walked out the door
Just to walk back a hundred times more
A thousand nights I have sworn not to stay, ooh oh
I remained
tangles in the chains of desire, ooh
I know that it's no good
I shouldn't
be here
I know I should leave you

CHORUS
Shouldn't let you close
to me
Shouldn't have this hold on me
No I shouldn't be so weak
But a
heart can only be so strong.
Every time I try to go
Just one look in your
eyes I know
That a heart can only be so strong.
A heart can only be so
strong.

A hundred ways you have captured my soul
I can't hold on but I
can't let go
Your spell on me is a spell I can't break, ooh oh
All my
strength burning in the flames of desire, ooh
I don't wanna stay here
I
don't wanna leave you
Don't know how to leave you

CHORUS
Wo, so
strong, oh
I can't let go oh no
Wo, so strong, wo, so strong
'Cause
you're a part of my soul
And I, can't escape you
No matter how hard I
try
I can never be free
Of your hold on me
I can't let go

A
hundred times I have walked out the door
Just to walk back a hundred times
more

CHORUS
Shouldn't let you close to me
Shouldn't have this hold
on me
But a heart can only be so strong.
Every time I try to go
Just
one look in your eyes I know
That a heart can only be so strong.
A heart
can only be so strong.
A heart can only be so strong.

                Looking for my Life

Oh Lord, won't you listen in to me now
Oh Love, I got to get me back to you somehow
I never knew that life was loaded
I'd only hung around birds and bees
I never knew that things exploded
I only found it out when I was down
upon my knees
Looking for my life, looking for my life.

Oh boy, you've no idea what I've been through
Oh Lord, I feel so stuck that I can't get to you
Had no idea that I was heading
Toward a state of emergency
I had no fear where I was treading
I only found it out when I was down
upon my knees
Looking for my life.

Caught up on me with intensity
Had no idea where I was heading
I only found it out when I was down
upon my knees
Looking for my life, looking for my life.

Oh boys you've no idea what I've been through
Oh Lord, I got to get back somehow to you

I never knew that life was loaded
I only hung around birds and bees
I never knew that things exploded
I only found it out when I was down
upon my knees
Looking for my life.

I never got any GCE's
I never knew that things exploded
I only found it out when I was down
upon my knees
Looking for my life, looking for my life
Looking for my life.

Rescue Me or Bury Me

http://BabasBoy.gaia.com — Wed, 23 Aug 2006 13:03:49 GMT

Rescue Me or Bury Me

Summer nights such lonely times
This memory does bleed
I need you in my life again

Fantasies release me
From the bondage of my fate
The days pass like the falling rain

Your eyes reflect like mirrors
The beauty in your soul
But anger shatters precious glass

Can't you recall the intimate
Secrets that we truly shared
The faith and trust we swore would always last

I only have myself to blame
You know it takes my breath away
To see you cry

To love I implore, I scream in the air
Claw at my chest, rip out my hair
Embrace me or let my spirit die

Rescue me or bury me
Rescue me or bury me

Time is like a prison cell
For those whose crime is loneliness
When freedom's banging at their door

When all has been said and done
You must decide swallow your pride and
Reach out and take these hands forevermore

Rescue me or bury me
Rescue me or bury me

I Am

http://BabasBoy.gaia.com — Sat, 19 Aug 2006 06:11:24 GMT

I Am

Pencil marks on a wall, I wasn't always this tall
You scattered some monsters from beneath my bed
You watched my team win
You watched my team lose
You watched when my bicycle went down again
And when I was weak, unable to speak
Still I could call You by name
And I said, Elbow Healer, Superhero
Come if You can
You said, I Am

Only sixteen, life is so mean
What kind of curfew is at 10pm?
You saw my mistakes
And watched my heart break
Heard when I swore I'd never love again
And when I was weak, unable to speak
Still I could call You by name
And I said, Heartache Healer, Secret Keeper
Be my best friend
And You said, I Am

You saw me wear white by pale candlelight
I said forever to what lies ahead
Two kids and a dream, with kids that can scream
Too much it might seem when it is 2am
And when I am weak, unable to speak
Still I call You by name
Shepherd, Savior, Pasture Maker
Hold onto my hand
You say, I Am

The winds of change and circumstance blow in and all
around us
So we find a foothold that's familiar
And bless the moments that we feel You nearer

When life had begun, I was woven and spun
You let the angels dance around the throne
And who can say when, but they'll dance again
When I am free and finally headed home
I will be weak, unable to speak
Still I will call You by name
Creator, Maker, Life Sustainer
Comforter, Healer, my Redeemer
Lord and King, Beginning and the End

I Am
Yes, I Am

Lyrics and Music by Mark Lee, Marc Byrd, and Third Day
From the recording: Come Together, Track #3.

I caught a glimpse of Your splendor
In the corner of my eye
The most beautiful thing I've ever seen
And it was like a flash of lightning
Reflected off the sky
And I know I'll never be the same

Show me Your glory
Send down Your presence
I want to see Your face
Show me Your glory
Majesty shines about You
I can't go on without You, Lord

When I climb down the mountain
And get back to my life
I won't settle for ordinary things
I'm gonna follow You forever
And for all of my days
I won't rest 'til I see You again

Show me Your glory
Show me Your glory
I can't live without You

Begin the Beguine

http://BabasBoy.gaia.com — Thu, 27 Jul 2006 05:52:25 GMT

Begin the Beguine

Artist: Cole Porter

When they begin the beguine
It brings back the sound of music so tender,
It brings back a night of tropical splendor,
It brings back a memory ever green.

I'm with you once more under the stars,
And down by the shore an orchestra's playing
And even the palms seem to be swaying
When they begin the beguine.

To live it again is past all endeavor,
Except when that tune clutches my heart,
And there we are, swearing to love forever,
And promising never, never to part.

What moments divine, what rapture serene,
Till clouds came along to disperse the joys we had tasted,
And now when I hear people curse the chance that was wasted,
I know but too well what they mean;
So don't let them begin the beguine

So don't let them begin the beguine
Let the love that was once a fire remain an ember;
Let it sleep like the dead desire I only remember
When they begin the beguine.

Oh yes, let them begin the beguine, make them play
Till the stars that were there before return above you,
Till you whisper to me once more,
"Darling, I love you!"
And we suddenly know, what heaven we're in,
When they begin the beguine

Artist: Cole Porter

Re: BABA, YOU'RE RIGHT

Thank you Dearest Metta,

I wrote that years ago, and now can see much room for improvement in my simple writing.....;o), but I still love the basic idea of it and the 'chorus/hook'. I just may have to revise some of the verse words somewhat though when I finally set it to music here soon, as some of them with my old simple style of 'feeling the need to have everything rhyme' are really 'forced' when trying to actually sing them. But I do have something here to work with I feel.

Again, Thank you for your kind words.

Much Love in the One,

Mickey
