"Always Up"

"Always Up"


There may be times in my day when I feel down
And I may walk around like a floppy old hound
There are people in my life we don't get along
But I know a time when nothin' goes wrong

And I'm always up when I get up in the morning
I'm always up at the end of the night
The morning smiles it's sun on me
I look over and it's you I see
And I'm always up when I get up in the morning
I'm up in the morning

My life may get hard on a certain week
And the people that I work with we may not speak
I might get drunk and stay out all night
Cause in the morning I know you won't be up tight

"Am I Going Crazy"

"Am I Going Crazy"


Was it (just) my imagination
Just running away with me
I could have sworn she looked at him
The way she looks at me
Was I only hearing things
When she picked up the phone
Or did I really hear her say
"Don't call me at home"?

I'm losing sleep just wondering
If I'm losing her
Oh my head's just spinning round
And around and nothing's for sure

Am I going crazy
Or just out of her mind
Am I just seeing things
Or is she seeing some other guy
Lately it seems like
She don't need my time
Am I going crazy
Or just out of her mind

Is it me she's loving
When I'm holding her at night
I may not know what's wrong with us
But I do know things aren't right
If I'm only going crazy
I could live with that in time
But if she's really leaving me
(But if I'm really losing her)
I'll go out of my mind

"Am I True To Myself"

"Am I True To Myself"


Today I looked down in the water
I saw a face look back at me
It hit me like a bolt of lightning
I may not like what I see.

Am I true to myself
Do I believe in what I do
Am I playing a role
Do I want to be like you
Or am I what I hate in others
Only seeing things my way
That's what I'm gonna ask myself today.

Do I really like my brothers
Do I like my hair so long
Do I try to think of others
Can I believe what's in my song

Do I think of all men equal
Or pretend I just don't see
Have I looked for good in others
Or just laughed and let them be.

"Another Hill To Climb"

"Another Hill To Climb"


You say you don't like
Where we call home
The way we live
Is bad and wrong
Travellin around instead
Of settling down
Our peace on mind
Is the highway sound

Another hill to climb
Another meal to find
A little air to breathe
That's all we need and we
Will be completely free

You say we don't care
What lies up ahead
There's money to save
Mouths to be fed
We're saving enough
To get away from this town
Lend us ten friend
We'll see you around

We don't see why
You're concerned about us
The way you worry friend
Got hang ups enough
Why not leave it all
And join us on the road
Life is beautiful
Free from the load

"Armstrong"

"Armstrong"


Black boy in Chicago
Playin' in the street
Not enough to wear
Not near enough to eat
But don't you know he saw it
On that July afternoon
Saw a man named Armstrong
Walk upon the moon

Young girl in Calcutta
Barely eight years old
The fly's that swarm the market place
Will see she don't grow old
But don't you know she heard it
On a July afternoon
Heard a man named Armstrong
Walk upon the moon

River's getting dirty
The wind in getting bad
War and hate are killing off
The only earth we have
But the whole world stopped to watch it
On that July afternoon
Watched a man named Armstrong
Walk upon the moon

And I wonder if a long time ago
Somewhere in the universe
They watched a man named Adam
Walk upon the earth

"As Time Goes By"

"As Time Goes By"


You must remember this
A kiss is still a kiss
A sigh is just a sigh
The fundamental things apply as time goes by

And when two lovers woo
They still say "I love you"
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings, as time goes by

Moonlight and love songs never out of date
Hearts full of passion, jealousy, and hate
Woman needs man, and man must have his mate
That no one can deny

It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die
The world will always welcome lovers as time goes by

"Asian Moon"

"Asian Moon"


On the advise of my friends
I took some time to get away
Over the oceans to forget her
And think a few days

How could I have known
How fast her memory would fade
But I got caught in the magic
Of a night so far away

Must be the light of the Asian Moon
Could be a song an old Asian Tune
Lovely dark haired ladies and the words they say
A late night sail on a moonlit bay
Could be the stars in the Asian Sky
That got me flying and feelin' so high
I never thought the hurt would heal so soon
Must be the light of the Asian Moon

That old moon cleared my mind
'Bout what's important to me
Now I want to live and love
And laugh that's all I need

"At First Sight"

"At First Sight"


Well I didn't plan this to happen
Cause you can't plan things like this
But the way we got along now
How could you knew what I miss
Everything you did was perfect
And everything I said was right
It just seemed kinda right
That you would spend the night

Every day this happens
You hear about it everywhere
You really don't believe it
But it just don't seem to care
How can things that move so quickly
Turn out to be so right
Baby don't you know that people
Fall in love at first sight

So don't be ashamed of you passion
And don't worry about the way that you feel
Think of all the people
Who never find anything real
They take so long to get together
That a piece of them is always apart
Well that's not for us baby
Cause we've been together from the start

"Back Bay"

"Back Bay"


Out of work I took a job as a
Hand on a boat
In a town called Matlache
On my first day off I was
Sitting drinking beer
At a bar called the dock of the bay

When in walked a woman
That every man eyed
But her eyes stayed right on me
The guy next to me he
Whispered real low
There's more to her than you can see

She comes from the back bay
Better stay away
She lives up on the back bay
And then he moved on away

Well she came and sat down
And the hours flew by
And the beer flowed just like the tide
The sun went down and the moon came up
And there was fire in her eyes

She took me for a ride in the white moonlight
In a boat like I've never seen
As the bay flew by the sky was alive
I was seeing things that I've never seen

She said you're going to the back bay
You're gonna see my ways
Cause there's magic on the back bay
You might even want to stay

Well I woke in the morning to
Her house boat rocking
Eye to eye with an old brown hound
There was fresh mullet frying
And strange birds crying
And no one else for miles around

I saw her standing there with
The breeze in her hair
I knew I never wanted to leave
I saw all my things around I
Knew she'd been back into town
And already mad the move for me

She said you're moving to the back bay
You're gonna see my ways
You're gonna love it on the back bay
And you're always gonna stay

"Between The Tears And Goodbye"

"Between The Tears And Goodbye"


So much can be said without saying a word
Your tears are telling me more
Than words I've ever heard
We better stop and think just
How much we're throwing away
Real love's so hard to find
And goodbye's too easy to say

We're somewhere between the tears and goodbye
On the edge of breaking up but
We can survive
As long as there's a spark of
Love burning in our eyes
If we still care enough to cry
There ought a be a way to keep
The feeling alive
Somewhere between the tears and goodbye

What happened to the days we
Made love the whole night long
How could something feel right
Somehow go so wrong

We're slowly drifting apart a
Little further every day
We better listen to our hearts
Before we let love slip away
