"God Blinked (Swing It Sister)"

"God Blinked (Swing It Sister)"

Her little soft machine could break your heart
We were linked
She was dancing from the second she checked in
She's a work of art but god blinked

Come on won't you swing it sister
You know you're always on my mind
Come on and swing it sister (swing it sister swing it sister)
You've left so many behind

She was the Mona Lisa's daughter
And somehow I caught her eye and she winked
She was smart as she was vocal
A real social butterfly but god blinked

Come on won't you swing it sister
You know you're always on my mind
You've got to swing it sister (swing it sister swing it sister)
Baby left me broken and blind

You knew just what you wanted
Your pretty smile haunted me, taunted me
We had the "long goodbye" I had to stop and cry
I know you're happy baby where you're at

Come on won't you swing it sister
You know you're always on my mind
Come on and swing it sister (swing it sister swing it sister)
You've left so many behind

Come on won't you swing it sister
You know you're always on my mind
You've got to swing it sister (swing it sister swing it sister)
Baby left me broken and blind

"hey Ma take a look at me now"
Woo woo Woo woo

"God Gave You To Everyone"

"God Gave You To Everyone"

Never wanted anyone as much as I want you
While you were making everyone I never had a clue
No matter how you treated me I'm still in love with you

Can't kick the feeling that the more I give the more I owe
I'm walking through the garden of the sun it's raining though
I'm waiting for your kiss of life but it's not gonna show

God gave you to everyone
In your summer of love
God gave you to everyone
Cause I'm not enough

We can't all be all things to everyone
You'll never spend your whole life standing in the sun
But you make me feel I don't mean anything to anyone

Looking for the kiss in your mouth
Living at the edge of my skin
Standing on the roof of heaven with the devil as it crashes in

God gave you to everyone
You told me so
God gave you to everyone
Oh Domino

God gave you to everyone
In your summer of love
God gave you to everyone
Cause I'm not enough

Oh oh
Oh oh

"God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen"

"God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen"

God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen,
Let nothing you dismay;
Remember Christ, our Saviour,
Was born on Christmas day,
To save us all from Satan's power
When we were gone astray.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.

In Bethlehem, in Jewry,
This blessed Babe was born,
And laid within a manger,
Upon this blessed morn;
That which His Mother Mary,
Did nothing take in scorn.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.

From God our Heavenly Father,
A blessed Angel came;
And unto certain Shepherds
Brought tidings of the same:
How that in Bethlehem was born
The Son of God by Name.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.

"Fear not," then said the Angel,
"let nothing you affright,
This day is born a Saviour
Of pure Virgin bright,
To free all those who trust in Him
From Satan's power and might."
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.

The shepherds at those tidings
Rejoiced much in mind,
And left their flocks a-feeding,
In tempest, storm, and wind:
And went to Bethlehem straightway,
The Son of God to find.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.

And when they came to Bethlehem
Where our dear Saviour lay,
They found Him in a manger,
Where oxen feed on hay;
His Mother Mary kneeling down,
Unto the Lord did pray.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.

Now to the Lord sing praises,
All you within this place,
And with true love and brotherhood
Each other now embrace;
This holy tide of Christmas
All other doth deface.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.

"Guenevere"

"Guenevere"

We had a game
I called her Guenevere
And she would always call me Galahad
I was her king
She was my queen
My Guenevere

The days were warm
The nights were sweet
I didn't think
That something troubling me
My Guenevere
You left one night
Farewell Guenevere
Where are you

Guenevere come back to Camelot
Galahad is waiting
Guenevere come back to Camelot
Watch the morning breaking

The city streets
No longer are
The English Countryside
They used to be

My armor rusts
My sword is waiting
For Guenevere
Where are you

Guenevere come back to Camelot
Galahad is waiting
Guenevere come back to Camelot
Watch the morning breaking

All the songs
I used to sing
I long to sing
For you
Said in my letter
Write me soon

I'm waiting here
My lady

Guenevere come back to Camelot
Galahad is waiting
Guenevere come back to Camelot
Watch the morning breaking

Guenevere come back to Camelot
Galahad is waiting
Guenevere come back to Camelot
Watch the morning breaking...

"Hark The Herald Angels Sing"

"Hark The Herald Angels Sing"

Hark! the herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King
Peace on earth and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled!"
Joyful, all ye nations rise;
Join the triumph of the skies;
With angelic host proclaim
"Christ is born in Bethlehem!"
Hark! the herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!"

Christ, by highest heaven adored;
Christ the everlasting Lord;
Late in time behold Him come,
Offspring of the favored one.
Veiled in flesh, the Godhead see;
Hail the incarnate Deity
Pleased as man with men to dwell,
Jesus, our Emmanuel
Hark! the herald angels sing,
"Glory to the newborn King"

Hail! the heaven-born Prince of Peace!
Hail! the Son of Righteousness!
Light and life to all He brings,
Risen with healing in His wings.
Mild He lays His glory by,
Born that man no more may die;
Born to raise the sons of earth,
Born to give them second birth
Hark! the herald angels sing,
"Glory to the newborn King"

"Heart Of A Woman"
(performed by Nona Hendryx)

"Heart Of A Woman"
(performed by Nona Hendryx)

All eyes and appetite
Like a tiger in the night
Watching every move you make
Waiting for the right mistake
A wounded heart has no pride
You cut the deepest part inside
The heart of a woman
The heart of a woman

This time you won't get far
I can see you in the dark
Street lights and strangers' eyes
They'll be my disguise
The clock ticks the night away
Tonight you're gonna habe to pay
The heart of a woman
The heart of a woman

You never know what's inside
You can run but you can't hide
From the heart of a woman

One time we were so close
I thought we shared a soul
You were the other half of me
The half that made me whole
Now I'm fighting back the tears
I'll never let you see
And you'll never know
As you turn to go
You tore away a part of me

I know all the moves
What you'll say - shat you'll do
How you'll take her to the edge
Leave her hunger sweetly fed
Oh baby you can run but you can't hide
From the heart of a woman
The heart of a woman.....

"Heaven"

"Heaven"

Everynight I go to sleep, you're there baby inside my head.
What's the secret that you keep.
It's not fair baby, I toss in bed.
One night I had the strangest dream.
Dreamt I made love to you. You better believe it, it felt so real.
Spent the night in the sea of love.
It's crazy the attraction that I feel, now baby.
It hit like a heart attack, I feel in my soul.

But the train's running off the track and I can't get control
Sleepwalking in the house of love
I heard Saint Peter was calling.
As I was making love to you.
Dreamed that I'd died and gone to heaven.
I woke up in your arms.
Dreamed that I died and gone to heaven.
Nothing now will ever be the same.

Saint Peter call me back again.
Take me there baby, you got me good.
I want to hear his choir of angels sing.
I say a prayer baby, I knock on wood.
That everynight I wake up restless from the heat.
You got to believe I never had such a physical dream baby.
It's built on sacred ground, your image in my head.
So I lay my body down on the alter of my bed.
I wait in the house of love and hope for sleep to come calling
So I'll be making love to you.

Dreamed that I'd died and gone to heaven.
I woke up in your arms.
Dreamed that I died and gone to heaven.
Nothing now will ever be the same.

Dreamed I'd died and gone to heaven,
dreamed my life was through.
Dreamed I'd died and gone to heaven, woke in love with you.
It hit like a heart attack, it came from out of nowhere.
But the train's running off the track on a fragile wing and a prayer.
Sleepwalking in the house of love I heard Saint Peter was calling.
As I was making love to you.

"His Last Words"

"His Last Words"

My father was too weak to parry the blade
as death's scythe swept through the house one night
as we were busy doing other things,
dust filled his mouth and stopped his breath,
and darkness took his soul in this familiar place...

His body, wasted by the sickness,
his spirit weary from the battle,
he spoke to me, forever his son,
of all things save death:
I longed to face it with him,
but seeing his fear,
I feared to speak of it.

And though we both saw death's dark irresistable form
in the far corner,
we talked instead of evening shadows
on bedroom walls.

And so it went.
There were no proud and profound last words,
no bright ringing final moment of clarity.
He just died.
We kissed his still warm face
and promised forever...

The cold wind blew through the trees in my father's yard,
and I looked for meaning.

"Hold On To Your Dream"

"Hold On To Your Dream"

You always felt you had a destiny (yeah)
You wouldn't bow down to the Gods
Of money and power, baby
You burned bright to shed your light all over the world
You had a plan and it was just a matter of time now
Here today, what happened to that dream
Don't tell me it's over
I still smell the fire

Stand up and Hold On To Your Dream
Maybe this is your moment
Stand up and Hold On To Your Dream
You know no one can take it
There is a path it's always been yours
And you have the right of passage
Signed in blood and sealed in tears
Sending you a message
Across the miles and thru the years
Stand up (and be there) and Hold On To Your Dream
With some faith and conviction (some faith and conviction)

Take a good look, you don't like what you see, (no)
You just don't come this far and never get scarred, baby
It all seemed like fate
The big dreams weren't hard to make way back then
Something pure about that suffer for art, passion and pain
Standing here
What happened to those dreams
Don't tell me they're over
While your heart is still beating

Stand up and Hold On To Your Dream
Maybe this is your moment
Stand up and Hold On To Your Dream
You know no one can take it
There is a path it's always been yours
And you have the right of passage
Signed in blood and sealed in tears
Sending you a message
Across the miles and thru the years
Stand up (and be there) and Hold On To Your Dream
With some faith and conviction (some faith and conviction)
