"Ann"


"Ann"

Ann a-sleepin' on my bed
Hair a-tumblin' 'round your head
You will always be a part of me
When I look in your eyes
It's my reflection I see

Ann, I wonder how you knew
I needed someone just like you
Were you on a beam of guiding light
that came in my life
late that September night

And though I try to hold back the years
I cannot hold the dawn
And so I try to hold back the tears
when love has grown up and gone

Ann I'll love you 'till I die
And when you hear this lullaby
I'll be with you though we're far apart
And you'll be with me right here inside my heart

I'll be with you though we're far apart
And you'll be with me right here inside my heart

"Drifter"

"Drifter"



I'm a drifter floatin' on the sea
Goin' where the currents take me
And I don't think I'll ever come to rest
'Cause I'm a drifter floatin' on the ocean
I've kinda got to where I like the motion
Things are gonna work out for the best

I know you want me to stay
And honey I'd sure like to see it your way
'Cause you're the best I've ever had of late
But somethin' stronger than love somehow
Has got me restless and I gotta go now
But I'll be back this way if you care to wait

I'm a drifter floatin' on the sea
Goin' where the currents take me
And I don't think I'll ever come to rest
'Cause I'm a drifter floatin' on the ocean
I've kinda got to where I like the motion
Hopin' things are gonna work out for
the best
I keep hopin' to find
A settledown place and a peaceful mind
Wonderin' if it's just around the bend
'Cause with all the things I wanna do
and see
You gotta be a millionaire of broke like me
Walkin' down this road that's got no end.
I'm a drifter floatin' on the sea
Goin' where the currents take me
And I don't think I'll ever come to rest
'Cause I'm a drifter floatin' on the ocean
I've kinda got to where I like the motion
Hopin' things are gonna work out for
the best

"He Don't Know How To Love You"


"He Don't Know How To Love You"

He don't, he don't know how to love you
Ain't no way he's gonna satisfy
'Cause he can't keep up with you like I can
All he'll give you is his alibi

He ain't much, I've seen him too
There ain't no way that man is right for you
And I don't see why you let him on through
No, no not after what you're used to

I ain't sayin' I'm the best around
But if there's better yet he ain't been found
Sure I'm cocky and yes I'm hot,
'Cause I got everything he ain't got
And he don't

He don't, he don't know how to love you
There ain't no way he's gonna satisfy
'Cause he can't keep up with you like I can
All he'll give you is some alibi

Now I know love is partly talk about
And maybe he can really scream and shout
But when it's over and the talk's all through
Let's see him try to thrill ya like I do
There's no way

He don't, he don't know how to love you
Ain't no way he's gonna satisfy
'Cause he can't keep up with you like I can
All he'll give you is some alibi
'Cause he don't, he don't know how to love you
Ain't no way he's gonna satisfy
He can't keep up with you like I can
All he'll give you is some alibi
He don't, he don't know how to love you

"Clouds Suite"

"Clouds Suite"

See the clouds adrift so far below
Everchanging as they come and go
Makes me wonder why I'm up so high
When really I am down so low

Of all the wonders I was one allowed
I think that I would always choose a cloud
Always brings my feelings right out loud
Whether I'm ashamed or proud

On this airplane comin' home to you
Sometimes I think I've flown my whole life through
My whole life...through
As I wing my way to you

See the clouds they're giving life below
In colors that the canvas cannot show
Keeping secrets no one else could know
For I'm the one who told them so

Now and then I get up close to you
I'd like to stay but I'm just passing through
So I'll have to say goodbye
Until next time I fly

Make my bed-light the light
Comin' in on the midnight flight
Touch the ground and soon you will be
Safe inside reality

Change your mind-change your name
Still the music it sounds the same

Rainfall don't bother me at all
You see the world reflected in the highway
Come on rainbow-I can't let you go
Before I reach the end of you someway

So the next time raindrops fall
If it makes you climb the walls just think of green

"Lorilee"

"Lorilee"


Lorilee, how could you do this to me
Come along, took all my love for a song
When a smile lights your face it's a
beautiful place
See how it shines... se how it shines

Lorilee, now that I've tasted your ways
I could live off of your lovin' for days
And when you're not around I keep missing
your sound
Wish you were here
Wish I was there
You are life, you are Lee... my Lorilee

"Part-Time Love"

"Part-Time Love"

I need somebody who's consistent with me
Someone already there when I need company
'Cause when l'm feelin' low
I don't want to have to go out lookin'
For a part-time kind of love

And when the dreams and rainbows start to disappear
Don't want somebody up and runnin' outa here
'Cause when you stop and start
Baby it's just too hard upon my heart
That part-time kind of love

And I can't take you darlin' livin' here wait and see
I want somebody who's committed now to me
Somewhere, someday you'll have to take a chance
So if you like the music baby
get up and dance

And if we grow together daring to dream
I know we'll find our shares of peaches and cream
And when the juices flow
I don't want no no no excuses
Just want your full time love for me
Just want your full time love for me.

"Sunday Rider"

"Sunday Rider"


Sunday riders-ridin' out along the highway
Sunday gliders-glidin' up along the skyway
Some must fly and some must speed
To satisfy the human need

Paper dresses-wear them once and throw
away
Plastic flowers-try to smell them anyway
No matter what the future brings
Nothin's like the real things

Sunday lovers-sneakin' in forsaken places
Under covers-so's to hide the guilty faces
Take my wife and take my pay
But don't take my Sunday lady from me.

"Never Let Her Go"


"Never Let Her Go"

Everybody needs a someone
waitin' to be there when things are a-lookin' down
So if you feel a little lonely
Go out, find your one and only
Somewhere out there
Someone will care for you and then,
never let her go
never let her go

You may wonder how you know love
when the moment comes that you've been a-dreamin' of
Well true love takes a little longer
Your heart beats a little stronger
You'll know it's real
inside you'll feel you're home at last
Then, never let her go
Never let her go

So if you feel a little lonely
go out, find your one and only
Open your heart
Give love a start and watch it grow
And never let her go
Never let her go
Never let her go
Never let her go

"Where Does The Loving Go?"

"Where Does The Loving Go?"


Tell me where does the lovin’ go
When it’s gone away
Tell me when does the heartache end
Or is it bound to stay

I always thought that we would last forever
A love that never, ever would be ending
But now I see it isn’t meant to be
And I’ve got to stop pretending

Tell me where are all the dreams
That we used to share
Are they lost to some other time
Will they still be there

I can’t believe that my place could be taken
My heart so easy breakin’ up inside
‘Cause after all this time, I thought of you as mine
And it’s hard to let go, my heart says no

And I never knew we were losing touch
I didn’t think we could change so much
Don’t take your leave of me just yet
Smile for me once more, so I won’t forget

Tell me where is another chance
Like the one we knew
And tell me where can I find someone
Someone just like you

I can’t imagine what I’m gonna do
'Cause I’ve lived my life for you and all we’ve planned
And I don’t think I’ll ever understand
Where does the lovin’ go

"Falling In Love Again"

"Falling In Love Again"



Just you and I, here on the shore
Wind in your hair, just like before
When I first held you tight
Promised you love, and I'd stay the night

Now even more, I long for your touch
My heart is on fire 'cause I want you so much
And I'm falling in love, falling in love again

If you belonged to somebody else, I would steal you away
Take all your love night and day
Satisfy you forever

I see your face, there in the crowd
Knowing you're mine makes me so proud
That I'm falling in love, falling in love again
Ooh, I'm falling with you, falling in love again
