This Kind Of Love

This Kind Of Love

Once you were just a friend of a friend at the bar
I didn’t see you as my type at all
But I was stranded with no ride home
So, we drove the beach road in your car

You’re the melody I never had to write down
You’re the fantasy I forgot to forget
You’re the magician who sings the sun down
Your face in silhouette

Meeting you at midnight
And moving to a moan
Motions giving moonlight meaning
I’ve never known this kind of love
This kind of love

You’re the water I never dared to jump into
You’re the place my body belongs
You’re the radio I tune into
Plays my favorite songs

The tide is rolling sideways
A jealous sky above
Motions giving moonlight meaning
I’ve never known this kind of love
This kind of love, this kind of love

Meeting you at midnight
A jealous moon above
Motions giving moonlight meaning
I’ve never known this kind of love
This kind of love
This kind of love
This kind of love

Too Soon To Say Goodbye

Too Soon To Say Goodbye

Too soon to say goodbye, my dear
Too soon to let you go
Too soon to say, “Auf Wiederschen”
“Au revoir,” no, no

Too soon to say goodbye, my dear
Too soon to rest my case
Too soon to start another journey
When we’ve just won the race

Not while the lanterns and chandeliers
Sway in the pale moonlight
Not while the shimmer of far and near
Holds us both so tight

Too soon to say goodbye, my dear
Too soon the tide will rise
But not ’til it reaches another shore
Will I ever say “goodbye”

Not while the music and fireworks
Sing down the hill to the sound
Not while the girls in their summer gowns
Are dancing round and round

Too soon to see the world beyond
I’m willing to be late
Let’s stay right here beneath the stars
Let the voyage wait

Cause it’s too soon,
Too soon, to soon to say goodbye
Too soon.

Sangre Dolce

Sangre Dolce

The soft winds of Buenos Aires
Once blew into her room
Now all she can do is kneel and pray
Sangre dolce
Sangre dolce

She’s lost in the streets
Lost in her thoughts
She’s lost in the smiles of the baby all day
She’s new in New York, dressed up like a doll
But broken like clay
Sangre dolce
Sangre dolce

She cries when underneath the crystal moon
She hears a sultry Spanish song
But coming from that neighborhood saloon
It sounds all wrong

Puts the child in the stroller
And walks through the park
“What a beautiful baby you have”
The women all say
“Thank you” she says, pretending it’s hers
Her own is so far away

Sangre dolce
Sangre dolce
Sangre dolce..

The Last Samba

The Last Samba

The last samba
The last samba is playing
Don’t waste me it seems to be saying
For soon this crescent moon will fade
Becoming only broken shell
And half remembered tunes

So take me then
Here on this sand in the midst of these stars
Swaying in thrall to the fading guitars
Lost on the beach in this trance

They’re playing the last samba
Shall we dance?

And half remembered tunes

So take me then
Here on this sand in the midst of these stars
Swaying in thrall to the fading guitars
Lost on the beach in this trance

They’re playing the last samba
The last samba
The last samba
Shall we dance?
Hmm, shall we dance?
Shall we dance?

They Just Want You To Be There

They Just Want You To Be There

They don’t care
If you brush your hair
They just care
That you’re there
They don’t mind
If you stay upstairs
They just care
That you’re there

They don’t know
If you’re all
You’ve ever
Wanted to be
Or if life
Has answered
Your prayers

They just want you
To be there
They just want you
To be there

They don’t mind
If you’re mad and yell
As long
As it’s not at them
Doesn’t matter you’re sad
They can tell
It’s not because of them

They don’t know
That you’re striving
To be someone
And you’re not sure
How you will fare

They just want you
To be there
They just want you
To be there
They just want you
To be there

Just as long
As you’re
Somewhat right
You can do no wrong
Their trusting eyes
Looking up at you
Believing
You’re so strong

They don’t know
That in time
They’ll grow
Into your shoes
They’ll pound
The ground
And they’ll swear
But they’ll want you
To be there
They just want you
To be there
They just want you
To be there

And you know
I know
You know, I know
It’s clear
A thousand percent
For you
I am, I am
I’m here

And you know
I know, I know you
Know it’s clear
A thousand percent
For you I am
I am I’m here
A thousand percent
For you
I am, I am
I am, I’m here
And I know
I know, I know
And I know, I know
It’s clear
And I know, I know
I know, it’s clear.

So Many People To Love

So Many People To Love

They’re praying on bended knees
In their beds and on the dirty streets
Lights are out on all the Christmas trees
Feels like everyone’s about to freeze
Makes me worry
Everywhere I look someone’s counting on me

So many people to love
And so little time
Gotta hurry
Big girls and little boys
Broken hearts and dreams destroyed now
They need me to make it better
What’s an angel gonna do when she needs some lovin’ too?
I’m just askin’

They’re using their money up
On shiny things no one will ever use
And the ones without can’t buy a pair of shoes
Nothing gentle in the Daily News
Makes me worry
Everywhere I look someone’s counting on me

So many people to love
And so little time
Gotta hurry
Big girls and little boys
Broken hearts and dreams destroyed now
They need me to make it better
What’s an angel gonna do when she needs some lovin’ too?
I’m just askin’

Can’t find neighbors who are mending fences
From the mansions, to the Hamptons, to the Central Park benches
City folk wearing all their armor
Another St. Nick rings a bell on the corner

So many people to love
And so little time
Gotta hurry
There are big girls and little boys
Broken hearts and dreams destroyed now
They need me to make it better

What’s an angel gotta do when she needs some lovin’ too?
I’m just askin’. askin’
I’m just askin’.

When We’re Together

When We’re Together

“Hi,” he says
“Higher than the stars,” he says
And “I know I’ve seen you before,” he says
She looks up deep into his eyes and stares
“Where were you into my life till now?”

I know that when we’re together our hearts fall into line
And I know why I’m afraid, this is my first time
And the stars will be quiet while I sing you this song
And I know I’ve been here before, and all day long

“Why,” he says, “run away from faded prayers?”
“Are you so scared that we might not get along?”
Shy, she is, weary to speak of love
And too tired to sleep, too tired to dream

I know that when we’re together our hearts will fall in line
And I know why you’re afraid, this is your first time
And our hearts will be quiet while I sing you this song
And I know I’ve been here before, and all day long

Winter comes, brings with it its shortened days
Leaves us less time in between deep nights
And she stays because there’s no time to wait
And the morning stillness still leaves no time for the light

I know that when we’re together our hearts will fall in line
I know why we’re afraid, this is our first time
Our hearts will be quiet while I sing you this song
And I know I’ve been here before, and all along
I know I’ve been here before, and all along
All day long, and all along. all along..

In My Dreams

In My Dreams

The only place I hang my hat is in my dreams
The only time I feel at home is in my dreams
The only place I’m not alone is in my dreams
The only place I recognize is in my dreams

That’s the only place I know
To wander to and fro
I move about and go
As slow as time will let me go

Sometime I’ll only dream and I’m not scared of that
I’ll move through farther galaxies, wear other hats

Trip on a wink, an inkling of a shadow fill
An eclipse in less than half a blink
Where you love me still

That’s the only place I know
To wander to and fro
I move about and go
As slow as time will let me go

That’s the only place I know
To wander to and fro
I move about and go
As slow as time will let me go
As slow as time will let me go
Let me go… let me go.

Hola Soleil

Hola Soleil

Free my eyes
Fill the skies
We’ve been dancing in your absence

Da da da…
Morning, hola, soleil
We’ve kept the darkness light
Dancing for the sun
To come back and rise up shining

Welcome home
Mother sun
Children reaching up like flowers

Da da da…
Morning, hola, soleil
We made it through the night
Knowing you’d return
To bless us with another morning

Baking sand, shining sea
Turning world
Dissolving shadows

Da da da…
Morning, hola, soleil
Behold the warmth of day
Rising near the shore
Hear the music start up playing.
