"The Wisdom Of Time"

"The Wisdom Of Time"


Oo-ooh, oo-oo-ooh, the wisdom of time

A baby crawls before he walks
He coos and mumbles before he talks
As the world turns, we live and learn
With the wisdom of time
As the world turns, we live and learn
With the wisdom of time

Growing up thru years of wonder
Why some go over and some go under
Life seems strange, but experience is gain
With the wisdom of time

Yesterday we lived separated
But today I thought you'd be intergrated
Divided we fall or together stand tall
With the wisdom of time
Divided we fall or together stand tall
With the wisdom of time, yeah

[Spoken interlude:]
Time...
The healer of wounds, the sealer of fate
With the greatest power to educate
Through you wisdom teach us not to hate
Before it's too late

Narrow minds keep us locked up tight
But broader minds are the key to what's right
So let's keep hoping for minds get open
With the wisdom of time, ooh

A baby crawls before he walks (oh, yeah)
He coos and mumbles before he talks
As the world turns, we live and learn
With the wisdom of time

Oh-oh-oh, yeah-eah, yeah-ea
As the world turns, we live and learn
With the wisdom of time

"Then I Met You"

"Then I Met You"


My life was getting used to
A dull daily routine
I was getting so fed up
I just wanted to scream
Up at six to work by nine
Home again by dinnertime
Watch TV til half past ten
Sleep and wake, and start again

Then, then I met you
And the pattern of my life was changed
My hum-drum world was re-arranged
Then, then I met you
You've made everyday a holiday
If it's not, it feels that way
Since I fell in love with you

I used to spend my weekends home
Wondering what to do
Sometimes I'd pick up the phone
And call a friend or two
And they'd say, "let's go somewhere"
I'd take the curlers from my hair
And go bowling with the girls
Then come home to my lonely world

Then, then I met you
And the pattern of my life was changed
My hum-drum world was re-arranged
Then, then I met you
You've made everyday a holiday
If it's not, it feels that way
Since I fell in love with you

I get silly when I pinch myself
I thought no one can see
But the last time I was loved like this
I woke up from a dream

Then, then I met you
And the pattern of my life was changed
My hum drum world was re-arranged
Then, then I met you
Now I'm having fun just like a child
In a playground, running wild
When, when I met you
You showed me life's happy side
Gave me love I've been denied

"Then We Can Try Again"

"Then We Can Try Again"


When the path to your heart's clear and you let no one else near
Then we can try it again, don't want to cry again
When your love for me is true and I can surely depend on you
Then we can try it again, I don't want to cry again

I'm leaving though still hoping that you'll find a way
To bring me back to you and make me want to stay
But you let an intruder threaten to make me a loser
So I'm giving you some time to decide things in your mind

On the day that you prove to me that you can love with sincerity
Then we can try it again, don't want to cry again
If you can patch up my broken world, make me believe I'm your only girl
Then we can try it again, I don't want to cry again

All you made me do I did it against my will,
Cause a day without you just makes my life stand still
But if you can help us, then in love I'll put my trust
And if love can prove us wrong, I'll come back where I belong

Baby, (then we can try it again) ooh baby (then we can try it again)
Ooh (then we can try it again), oh baby (then we can try it again)
When you make up your mind to come and tell me I'm the only one
Then we can try it again, I don't want to cry again
And the minute I hear your voice telling me I'm your only choice
Then we can try it again, I don't want to cry again
When the path to your heart's clear and you let no one else near
Then we can try it again, I don't want to cry again
Oh yeah, when your love for me is true and I can surely depend on you
Then we can try it again

"There's No Stopping Us Now"

"There's No Stopping Us Now"


There's no stopping us now
Now that we found our way
There's no stopping us now
Our love is here to stay
Foolishly we've been apart
Breaking each others heart
Stubbornness and foolish pride
Caused us to push love aside
The loneliness from being apart
Opened up our eyes
To the love that was always there
Deep inside

Now that we've faced the unknown
And we can't make it alone
We're closer together more now then ever
For now that we've found love
We've got to hold on love

There's no stopping us now
This time love's here to stay
There's no stopping us now
Now we have found our way
The precious hours we have lost
We'll never regain
But together we'll fill the hours that remain
The loneliness we have known
We'll push behind
Together forever
We'll make up for all lost time

Now we're in each others arms
Nothing can do us harm
Nothing can shake us,
Nothing can beak us
We'll be together
Forever and ever

There's no stopping us now
This time love's here to stay
There's no stopping us now
Together we've found the way
Never again shall foolish pride keep us apart
Never again shall stubbornness break our hearts
There's no stopping us now
Now that we've found our way
Would you believe?
There's no stopping us now
Now that love's here to stay
There's no stopping us now
Now that we've...

"These Boots Are Made For Walkin'"

"These Boots Are Made For Walkin'"


You keep saying
You got something for me
something' you call love
But confess

You've been messin'
Where you shouldn't have been messin'
And now someone else
Is getting all your best

These boots are made for walking
And that's just what they'll do
And one of these days these boots
Are gonna walk all over you

You keep lying'
When you oughta be truthing
You keep losing
When you oughta not bet

You keep 'same-in'
When you oughta be changing
Now, what's right is right
But you ain't been right yet

My boots are made for walking
And that's just what they'll do
One of these days these boots
Are gonna walk all over you

You keep playing
When you shouldn't be playing
you keep thinking
You'll never get burned
I just found me
A brand new box of matches
And what he knows now
You ain't got time to learn

These boots are made for walking
And that's just what they'll do
One of these days these boots
Are gonna walk all over you

Are you ready boots?
Try to walk

"This Can't Be Love"

"This Can't Be Love"


This can't be love
Because I feel so well
No sobs, no sorrows, no sighs

This can't be love
I get no dizzy spells
My head is not in the skies
My heart does not stand still
Just hear it beat
This is too sweet to be love

This can't be love
Because I feel so well
I love to look in your eyes
I love to look in your eyes

This can't be love
Because I feel so well
No sobs, no sorrows, no sighs

This can't be love
I get no dizzy spells
My head is not in the skies
My heart does not stand still
Just hear it beat
This is too sweet to be love

This can't be love
Because I feel so well
I love to look in your eyes
I love to look in your eyes

"This Old Heart Of Mine (Is Weak For You)"

"This Old Heart Of Mine (Is Weak For You)"


Ooo, this old heart of mine been broke a thousand times
Each time you break away I fear you're gone to stay
Lonely nights that come, memories that go
Bringin' you back again, hurtin' more and more.

Maybe it's my mistake to show this love I feel inside
Cause each day that passes by
You got me never knowin' if I'm comin' or goin'
But I, I love you, this old heart, darling, is weak for you
I love you, yes I do.

These old arms of mine miss havin' you around
Makes these tears inside start fallin' down
Always with half a kiss you remind me of what I miss
Though I try to control myself
Like a fool I start feelin' cause my head starts spinnin'.

Cause I love you, this old heart, darling, weak for you
I love you, yes I do, yes I do.

Ooo, I try hard to hide my hurt inside
This old heart of mine always keeps me cryin'
The way you treat me leaves me incomplete
You're here for a day, gone for the week now.

But if you leave me a hundred times
A hundred times I'll take you back
I'm yours whenever you want me
I'm not too proud to shout it
I'll tell the world about it.

Cause I, I love you, this old heart, darling, weak for you
I love you, yes I do, yes I do
I love you, this old heart, darling, weak for you
I love you, this old heart, darling, weak for you.

"Thou Swell"

"Thou Swell"


Thou swell, thou witty
Thou sweet, thou grand
Wouldst kiss me pretty [?]
Wouldst hold my hand [?]

Both thine eyes are cute too
What they do to me
Hear me holler I choose a
Sweet lolla paloosa in thee

I'd feel so rich
In a hut for two
Two rooms and kitchen
I'm sure would do

Give me just a plot of
Not a lot of land
Thou swell, thou witty
Thou swell, thou witty
Thou swell, thou witty
Thou grand

I'd feel so rich
In a hut for two
Two rooms and kitchen
I'm sure will do

Give me just a plot of
Not a lot of land
Thou swell, thou witty
Thou swell, thou witty
Thou swell, thou witty
Thou grand

"Time Changes Things"

"Time Changes Things"


Funny how time changes
Rearranges everything

For instance how could I have known
That you'd be the only one for me
When you wanted me I didn't want you

And time changes things its true
'Cause now I want you
I want you

When you used to speak to me
I didn't give you a second look
'Cause I already had many guys
In my telephone book
But one day my heart spoke your name
My heart spoke your name

And time changes things its true
'Cause now I want you
I want you

Funny how times turns the tables
And left me yearning, my heart burning
For instance you just past me by passed me by
You didn't speak and I wanted to die
Now that I want you
You don't want me

And time changes things, it's true
You know I need you
And time changes things, it's true
I keep repeating, now
And time changes things, it's true
'Cause now I want you

It's so funny
Funny how time changes
Funny how time rearranges
It's so funny
It's so funny how I want you
