"After Jane"

"After Jane"

I can't laugh
I can't moan
I can't leave myself alone
After Jane
After Jane

I was hers
She was mine
We were together all the time
Oh, my Jane
Oh, my Jane

Maybe it's the right thing, and maybe it's wrong
You know I lay awake and wonder all night long
Maybe it's over and maybe we're free
You know this lonely feelin' is drownin' me

Will I rise up again?
Will I ever know a friend, like my Jane?
Oh, my Jane

Maybe it's the right thing and maybe it's wrong
You know I lay awake and wonder all night long
Maybe it's over and maybe it's not
You know this lonely feelin' is all I got

Will I rise up again?
Will I ever know a friend, like my Jane?
Oh, my Jane

After Jane
After Jane
Oh, my Jane
Oh, my Jane
After Jane

"Alone With You"

"Alone With You"

Every day I thank the Lord above
For giving me such a way with love
Oohh baby, what I wouldn't do
Just to be alone with you
You'd be crazy to resist
(You'd be crazy to resist)
I won't rest until I'm properly kissed
(Until I'm kissed)
Oohh baby, what I wouldn't do
(What I wouldn't do)
Just to be alone with you
I'm a full-grown woman and I'm in my prime
I know how to love you and I take my time
I'll wrap you up in all my curls
Make you forget all about your other girls
No one will know baby, no one will see
(No one will see)
No one can touch you now because you're safe with me
(You're safe with me)
Oohh baby, what I wouldn't do
(What I wouldn't do)
Just to be alone with you
Oohh baby, what I wouldn't do
(What I wouldn't do)
Just to be alone with you
(Just to be alone with you)
Just to be alone with you
(Just to be alone with you)
Oh just to be alone
Just to be alone

"Break Up To Make Up"

"Break Up To Make Up"

Tell me what's wrong - with you
Tell me why I - never seem to make you happy
Though heaven knows I try
What does it take - to please you
Tell me just how - I can satisfy you baby
You're drivin' me wild

Break up to make up
That's all we do
First you love me, then you hate me
That's a game for fools
Break up to make up
That's all we do
First you love me, then you hate me
That's a game for fools

When I come home - from workin'
You're on the phone
Talkin' 'bout how bad I treat you
Now tell me I'm wrong
You say it's me - who argues
I say it's you
We have got to get together
Or baby we're through

Break up to make up
That's all we do
First you love me, then you hate me
That's a game for fools
Break up to make up
That's all we do
First you love me, then you hate me
That's a game for fools

Break up to make up
That's all we do
First you love me, then you hate me
That's a game for fools
Break up to make up
That's all we do
First you love me, then you hate me
That's a game for fools

Break up to make up
That's all we do
First you love me, then you hate me
That's a game for fools

"Bring It On Home"

"Bring It On Home"

Baby, baby
I'm gonna bring it on home to you
I done bought my ticket, I got my load
Conductor done hollered, "All, aboard"
Take my seat and ride way back
And watch this train move down the track
Baby, baby
I'm gonna bring it on home to you
I think about the good times I once have had
Soul got happy now, my heart got glad
I think about the way you love me too
You can bet your life, I'm comin home to you
I'm goin home
Baby, baby
Baby
I'm gonna bring it on home
I'm gonna bring it on home

"Brokedown Palace"

"Brokedown Palace"

Fare you well, my honey, fare you well my only true one.
All the birds that were singing are flown, except you alone.
Going to leave this brokedown palace,
On my hand and knees, I will roll, roll, roll.
Make myself a bed in the waterside,
In my time, I will roll, roll roll.
Make myself a bed by the waterside I will lay my head.
Listen to the river sing sweet songs, to rock my soul.
River going to take me, sing sweet and sleepy,
Sing me sweet and sleepy all the way back home.
Its a far gone lullaby, sung many years ago.
Mama, mama many worlds I've come since I first left home.
Goin home, goin home, by the riverside I will rest my bones,
Listen to the river sing sweet songs, to rock my soul.
Going to plant a weeping willow,
On the banks green edge it will grow, grow, grow.
Sing a lullaby beside the water,
Lovers come and go, the river roll, roll, roll.
Fare you well, fare you well, I love you more than words can tell,
Listen to the river sing sweet songs, to rock my soul.

"Buckets Of Rain"
(originally by Bob Dylan)

"Buckets Of Rain"
(originally by Bob Dylan)

Buckets of rain
Buckets of tears
Got all them buckets comin' out of my ears
Buckets of moonbeams in my hand
You got all the love, honey baby
I can stand
I been meek
And hard like an oak
I seen pretty people disappear like smoke
Friends will arrive, friends will disappear
If you want me, honey baby
I'll be here
I like your smile
And your fingertips
I like the way you move your hips
I like the cool way you look at me
Everything about you is bringing me misery
Little red wagon
Little red bike
I ain't no monkey but I know what I like
I like the way you love me strong and slow
I'm taking' you with me, honey baby
When I go
Life is sad
Life is a bust
All you can do is do what you must
You do what you must do and you do it well
I'll do it for you, honey baby
Can't you tell?
Buckets of rain
Buckets of tears
Got all them buckets comin' out of my ears
Buckets of moonbeams in my hand
You got all the love, honey baby
I can stand
You got all the love, honey baby
I can stand

"Bury Me On The Battery"

"Bury Me On The Battery"

If I die in New York city
Bury me on the Battery
The pretty girls on Brooklyn ferry
Ask them all to weep for me

I'll be smiling brother
When they lay me down
Cause I lived my life
In New York town

Say it again

I'll be smiling brother
When they lay me down
Cause I lived my life
In New York town

And I'll be smiling brother
When they lay me down
Cause I lived my life
In New York town

I'll be smiling brother
When they lay me down
Cause I lived my life
In New York town

Because I lived my life
In New York town

"Can't Say No"

"Can't Say No"

And if you say to me it's wrong, I know
But here we are and I refuse to go
I can't go on without the love we make
Your touch is all I need to cure this day
I can't say no, how hard I've tried
How long I've run to try and hide
How deep my love, so sweet tonight
I can't say no, any more
And if you say to me it's all a dream
And let me sleep so happily, it seems
Don't wake me up without the love we make
Your touch is all I need to cure this day
I can't say no, how hard I've tried
How long I've run to try and hide
How deep my love, so sweet tonight
I can't say no, any more
I can't say no, I can't say no
I can't say no, anymore
(can't say no, can't say no, can't say)
I can't say no, I can't say no
I can't say no, anymore
(can't say no, can't say no, can't say)
I can't say no, I can't say no
I can't say no, anymore
(can't say no, can't say no, can't say)
I can't say no, I can't say no
I can't say no, anymore
(can't say no, can't say no, can't say)
(can't say no, can't say no, can't say)
(can't say no, can't say no, can't say)
(can't say no, can't say no, can't say)
(can't say no, can't say no, can't say)

"Cathedrals"

"Cathedrals"

In the shadows of tall buildings
Of fallen angels on the ceilings
Oily feathers in bronze and concrete
Faded colors, pieces left incomplete
The line moves slowly past the electric fence
Across the borders between continents

In the cathedrals of New York and Rome
There is a feeling that you should just go home
And spend a lifetime finding out just where that is

In the shadows of tall buildings
The architecture is slowly peeling
Marble statues and glass dividers
Someone is watching all of the outsiders
The line moves slowly through the numbered gate
Past the mosaic of the head of state

In the cathedrals of New York and Rome
There is a feeling that you should just go home
And spend a lifetime finding out just where that is

In the shadows of tall buildings
Of open arches endlessly kneeling
Sonic landscapes echoing vistas
Someone is listening from a safe distance
The line moves slowly into a fading light
A final moment in the dead of night

In the cathedrals of New York and Rome
There is a feeling that you should just go home
And spend a lifetime finding out just where that is

Oohh...

In the cathedrals of New York and Rome
There is a feeling that you should just go home
And spend a lifetime finding out just where that is

"Champagne And Wine"

"Champagne And Wine"

Sitting' here, thinking'
About the times I've been wrong
Different men that I have known
Of all those men that I have met
You're the one man that I can't forget
We had our time now
Put in bed now
I can't forget him and I sure ain't gonna forget him ,no
Remember side street, where we used to meet
Making love, nobody but you and me!
Champagne and wine is what you're gonna get
Champagne and wine what its gonna be
Just as long, boy, as you see about me
I'm gonna be knocking' on your door
I want the same love that I had before
You're a man now, full grown man
You got me eating from the tip of your hand
I don't mind eating, long as you feed me
Put love and put all sympathy
Champagne and wine is what its gonns be
Everyday its gonna be like someday
Every night you're gonna have stars up in the sky
Oh, I'm giving you champagne and wine
I'm gonna give it to you all the time
oh, we, baby, champagne and wine
oh na na na naaa...
I really do love you baby,
I really do need you honey
I really do want you baby,
champagne and wine
ohh...
