"Crazy"

"Crazy"




Lately, I can't sleep at night
I can't turn off my mind
You've got me goin' in circles
When you're not around me

I just keep thinking
What my life would be without you
Isn't it crazy
Like I'm on a string
Make me dance and sing

And when you feel like some lovin'
You turn on my music
You give me hope and then you're gone
I feel so helpless
Isn't it crazy
Totally crazy

You touch my hand
And make my temperature rise
You get me goin'
With that look in your eyes
Holding on,
I'm holding on
Your love keeps killing me I go willingly
Crazy

And baby I love you
Like nobody loves you
I only wish that loving you was not so easy
Isn't it crazy
Totally crazy

You touch my hand
And make my temperature rise
You get me goin'
With that look in your eyes
Holding on,
I'm holding on

Your love is killing me
I go willingly crazy
Crazy over you
Look what love can do
Can make you act like a baby
Isn't it crazy
Why do I go on

It's out of control now
Isn't it crazy
N. Diamond, B. Bacharach, C. Bayer Sager 1984

"Create Me"

"Create Me"



Days break, nights fall
And I wait alone
I sleep behind a wall
My silent call unknown

Create me
Create me

Take me in your hands and shape me
Wake me from this sleep to then begin again
To live again

Create me
Create me
Create me

Days break, nights fall
Each one the same
I wait behind a wall
To hear you call my name

Create me
Create me

Breathe your life into my soul
And know the greatest story told
Is you and I and how we tried
And how we won and what You've done

Creating me

How many seasons have we endured?
How many fields yet to plow?
Know that my destiny is tied to yours
Just need to trust me; our destiny is now

Create me

Lift me up and give a meaning
To a dream that I've been dreaming, endlessly
It comforts me to see you there
There you are; we've come so far

How many seasons have we endured?
How many fields yet to plow?
Know that my destiny is tied to yours
Just need to trust me; our destiny is now

Create me
Create me
Create me

Days break, nights fall
I dream alone

"Crunchy Granola Suite"

"Crunchy Granola Suite"



Mmmmmmmm
I got a song been on my mind
And the tune can be sung
And the words all rhyme
Deedle-ee deet deet deet deet
Deet deet deedle dee doo

Though it don't say much
And it won't offend
If you sing it at school
They're liable to send you home
Never knowin' what you're showin'
Think you're growin' your own tea
Good Lordy

Let me hear that get me near that
Crunchy Granola Suite
Drop your shrink and stop your drinkin'
Crunchy granola's neat
Sing it out
Alright
Da da da da
Da da da da da
Dee dee dee dum

I know a man was outta touch
And he'd hide in a house
And he didn't say much
Deedle-ee deet deet deet deet
Deet deet deedle dee doo

And like a man
With a tiger outside his gate
He not only couldn't relax
But he couldn't relate
Now he can, family man
Tried my brand
Dig

Let me hear that get me near that
Crunchy Granola Suite
Drop your shrink and stop your drinkin'
Crunchy granola's neat
Sing it out
Alright
Da da da da
Da da da da da
Dee dee dee do
Deedle-ee dum dum
I'll have a double please

"Dancing To The Party Next Door"

"Dancing To The Party Next Door"



There I was
Sittin' at home with my magazine
Just kickin' back
Quietly drinking my cup of tea
But suddenly
I hear the sound of rock and roll
Comin' through my walls
Makes me lose control

And I'm dancin' to the party next door
Groovin' with the kids on the floor, yeah
Dancin' to the party next door
And I'm havin' a good time,
Oh yeah, uh huh, alright
I'm havin' a good time
Oh yeah, uh huh, alright

Look at me
I'm a reserved and a proper guy
But suddenly
Mister Reserved here is flyin' high
Hey, I believed
Some things were just not meant to be
Like carryin' on this way
But take a look at me

Hey
I'm dancin' to the party next door
Hey
I'm groovin' with the kids on the floor, yeah
Dancin' to the party next door
And I'm havin' a good time
Oh yeah, uh huh, alright
I'm havin' a good time
Oh yeah, uh huh, it's alright

And it's clear to me
I see the writing on the wall
Says how you gonna fly
If you're afraid to fall

So I'm dancin' to the party next door
Groovin' with the kids on the floor, yeah
Dancin' to the party next door
And we're havin' a good time

I'm dancin' to the party next door
Groovin' with the kids on the floor, yeah
Dancin' to the party next door
And we're havin' a good time

I'm dancin' to the party next door
Groovin' with the kids on the floor, yeah
Dancin' to the party next door
And we're havin' a good time

"Deck The Halls"

"Deck The Halls"



Deck the halls with boughs of holly,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Tis the season to be jolly,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.

Don we now our gay apparel,
Fa la la, la la la, la la la.
Troll the ancient Yule tide carol,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.

See the blazing Yule before us,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Strike the harp and join the chorus.
Fa la la la la, la la la la.

Follow me in merry measure,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
While I tell of Yule tide treasure,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.

Fast away the old year passes,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Hail the new, ye lads and lasses,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.

Sing we joyous, all together,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Heedless of the wind and weather,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.

"Dedicated To The One I Love"

"Dedicated To The One I Love"



While I'm far away from you my baby
I know it's hard for you my baby
Because it's hard for me my baby
And the darkest hour is just before dawn

Each night before you go to bed my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
And tell all the stars above
This is dedicated to the one I love
(love can never be
exactly like we want it to be)

I could be satisfied knowing you love me
(And there's one thing I want you to do
especially for me)
And it's something that everybody needs

While I'm far away from you my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
Because it's hard for me my baby
And the darkest hour is just before dawn

If there's one thing I want you to do
Especially for me
Then it's something that everybody needs

Each night before you go to bed my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
And tell all the stars above
This is dedicated to the one I love
This is dedicated to the one I love
This is dedicated to the one I love
This is dedicated to the one I love
