you know
one time things got so bad until
i had to go to one of my friends and talk to him
and i told him, i said, “you know
i’m having problems with the woman that i love
it seems that i call her on the phone and i just can’t get her to answer
and then i went to her house and i saw a car parked in the driveway
i knocked on the door, but still my knocks went unanswered
and then i went home and i-i watched television until television went off
and then i played my records until i just didn’t want to hear them anymore
and finally i went to bed, but i found myself waking up a few hours later
and the tears were running down my face”
and my friend told me, he said, “lenny,
you just oughta forget about her”
but i told my friend, i said, “you know
maybe you’ve never been in love like i’ve been in love
and maybe you’ve never felt the things that i’ve felt”
but this is what i told my friend
i said, “you know, sometimes you get lonely
you get lonely, you get lonely”
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
and i cry, i cry
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
and the tears would fill up in the wells
in the wells of my eyes, aww baby
and then it got so bad, it got so bad
till one time i thought i’d roll myself up in a big ol’ ball and die
and then i met you, darlin’
and you smiled at me
oh, oh, it was such a pretty smile, yes, it was
and you reached out your hand
you helped me (helped), you helped me (helped me), you helped, oh
i’m glad, baby, i’m glad, baby
oh, oh, oh, baby, ey, ey, ey
i won't ever leave you, baby
i won't ever grieve you, baby
i’m gonna love you, oh, oh, oh, baby
i’m glad, i’m glad, baby
oh, oh, yeah, baby, oh, oh, oh

love's holiday, earth, wind & fire

would you mind if i touch,
if i kiss, if i held you tight
in the morning light
would you mind if i said how i felt tenderly tonight
again cause

i never ever felt this way in my heart before
love has found it's way in my heart tonight

would you mind if i looked
into your eyes till i'm hypnotized
and i lose my pride
would you mind if i make love to you till i'm satisfied
again cause

i never ever felt this way in my heart before
love has found it's way in my heart tonight

once again cause
i never ever felt this way in my heart before
love has found it's way in my heart tonight

once again cause
i never ever felt this way in my heart before
love has found it's way in my heart tonight

every day, voxtrot

Every day I picture things falling down
Landscape all tossed around
In cities I start to drown
But when I stop to push the fear out of me
Come steady my shaking knees
And drag the roots out to sea

And it's hard to be steeped in your gaze
You're always drinking me, I have no place
To be awkward and silent
Spoil your tongue with my silence
My flavor happens inside this
There is no love without trying
There is no easy way when I

Crane my neck to kiss your head, I know
That there is something that I can rely on
And when I strain my thoughts to push this thread I sew
It's some kind of future that I can be sure of

Oh I'm just breathing air
Contracts on everything
Reluctant and measuring
The food that we choose to bring
But I can trace an invisible piece of string
Connects between you and me
Like symbols of property

Oh when I recognize, cut from a cloth
Always solid and breathing
You and I retract like swans
Always advance and receding
Believe in something worth eating
Share love in something like feeding
There is no trust without meaning
There is no easy way when I

Crane my neck to kiss your head, I know
That there is something that I can rely on
And when I strain my thoughts to push this thread I sew
It's some kind of future that I can be sure of

And I wonder why there is no choice in the things that we hear
We hear our lives inside these sounds
There's nothing good on the radio
There's never anything good on
There's never anything good on
There's nothing good on the radio
There's never anything so I stop to sing
And these things come rushing from behind
Life is changing so fast and there's nothing I can do to stop it
But when I crane my neck to kiss your head, I know
That there is something that I can rely on
And when I strain my thoughts to push this thread I sew
It's some kind of future that I can be sure of

Because I love you, because I love you
Because I love you, because I love you

s'wonderful, geroge gershwin

Life has just begun,
Jack has found his Jill;
Don't konw what you've done
But I'm all a-thrill.
How could words express
Your divine appeal?
You can never guess
All the love I feel
From now on, Darling, I insist,
For me no other girls exist.

'S wonderful! 'S marvelous!
(That) You should care for me!
'S awful nice! 'S paradise!
'S what I love to see!

You've made my life so glamorous,
You can't blame me for feeling amorous,
'S wonderful! 'S marvelous!
That you should care for me!

love connection, parenthetical girls

Chapped lips,
tongue kissed,
insert expletive,
fluids of a summer night.
With slight duress,
forced imperatives,
find me quoting Donovan.
A delicate blend of sweat and menstrual blood,
seeping into trampled grass.

So take my lip between your teeth,
and taste me by devouring,
and I'll start watching my weight again,
Oh...

Woke up at dawn,
face down on the lawn,
head awash of what had been.
Pressed cheek to cheek,
fingers underneath,
soft impressions of your teeth.
Some hours lost,
and at such a cost,
stains and scars I can't explain.

So take my lip between your teeth,
and taste me by devouring,
and I'll start watching my weight again,
Oh...

Some things are best left unsaid.
Some things are best left unsaid.
Some things are best left unsaid.
Some things are best left unsaid.
Some things...
are best left unsaid.
