needed a sweater yesterday, today it's 100

Hit the road Jack
And don't you come back no more
What you say?
Woah Woman, oh woman, don't treat me so mean
You're the meanest old woman that I've ever seen
I guess if you said so
I'd have to pack my bags and go
Hit the road Jack
And don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more

[KEZHEAD]

That’s the roller coaster ride of the weather in Sep/Oct


Well you're the real tough cookie with a long history
Of breaking little hearts like the one in me
That's okay, let's see how you do it
Put up you dukes, let's get down to it
Hit me with your best shot
Why don't you hit me with your best shot
Hit me with your best shot
Fire away

[Brian129]

Long red
Tears and shades of gray
I have changed you
I have lost forever from today

Long red, helpin' you to find the day
Bright red, how am I gonna find a way

[rdiberna]

Oh, the scaffold is high and eternity's near
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
But late at night, when the north wind blows
In a long black veil, she cries ov're my bones

[KEZHEAD]

A pair of 45's made me open my eyes
My temperature started to rise
She was a long cool woman in a black dress
Just-a 5'9, beautiful, tall
With just one look I was a bad mess
'Cause that long cool woman had it all

[richblueyes]

I never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight
I never seen you shine so bright...mm hmm
I never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance
Looking for a little romance
Given half the chance
I have never seen that dress you're wearing
Or the highlights in your hair...they catch my eye
I have been blind
Lady in red is dancing with me...cheek to cheek
There's nobody here
It's just you and me
It's where I wanna be
I hardly know
This beauty by my side
I'll never forget the way you look tonight

[KEZHEAD]

Heaven... I'm in heaven,
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak.
And I seem to find the happiness I seek,
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek.
Heaven... I'm in heaven,
And the cares that hung around me through the week,
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak,
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek.

^Great old song!


They call you "Lady Luck",
But there is room for a doubt.
At times you have a very unladylike way of running out.
You're on this date with me.
The picking's have been lush.
And yet before this evening is over you might give me the brush.
You might forget your manners
You might refuse to stay
And so the best that I can do is pray
Luck, be a lady tonight.
Luck, be a lady tonight.
Luck, if you've ever been a lady to begin with.
Luck, be a lady tonight.
Luck, let a gentleman see
How nice a dame you can be.
I know the way you've treated other guys you've been with.
Luck, be a lady with me.

[KEZHEAD]

Lady, when you're with me I'm smiling
Give me all your love
Your hands build me up when I'm sinking
Just touch me and my troubles all fade
Lady, from the moment I saw you
Standing all alone
You gave all the love that I needed
So shy, like a child who has grown

[richblueyes]

Lady, I'm your knight in shining armor and I love you
You have made me what I am and I'm yours
My love, there's so many ways I want to say I love you
Let me hold you in my arms forever more
You have gone and made me such a fool
And I'm so lost in your love
And oh, we belong together
Won't you believe in my song?
Lady, for so many years I thought I'd never find you
You have come into my life and, made me whole
Forever let me wake to see you each and every morning
Let me hear you whisper softly in my ear

[KEZHEAD]

Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world
The heart has it's beaches, it's homeland and thoughts of it's own
Wake now, discover that you are the song that the morning brings
But the heart has it's seasons, it's evenings and songs of it's own

[rdiberna]

Love, I don't like to see so much pain
So much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired working so hard for our survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive
And all my instincts they return
And the grand facade, so soon will burn
Without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside
In your eyes (your eyes, your eyes)
In your eyes
In your eyes

[richblueyes]

The book of love is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts and figures
And instructions for dancing
But I
I love it when you read to me
And you
You can read me anything
The book of love has music in it
In fact that's where music comes from
Some of it is just transcendental
Some of it is just really dumb
But I
I love it when you sing to me
And you
You can sing me anything
The book of love is long and boring
And written very long ago
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
And things we're all too young to know

[KEZHEAD]

She eyes me like a Pisces when I am weak
I've been locked inside your heart-shaped box for weeks
I've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black
Hey
Wait
I got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice

[richblueyes]

If I can't let you go will darkness divide?
For the fiction of love is the truth of our lies
We were playing for keeps, but we both knew the cost
Now the only way out's in your heart-shaped box
But I hate that it seemed you were never enough
We were broken and bleeding but never gave up
And I hate that I made you the enemy
And I hate that your heart was the casualty
Now I hate that I need you
As we rest here alone like notes on a page
The finest to compose could not play our pain
With a candle through time I can still see your ghost
But I can't close my eyes, for it
For it is there where you haunt me most
Where you haunt me most

[KEZHEAD]

Is there a reason for today?
Is there a reason for today?
Do you remember?
I can hear all the cries of the city
No time for pity for a growing tree
There is a world of pain
In the falling rain
Around me

[richblueyes]

Take my hand and we will walk together
Take my hand you will not walk alone
Take my hand, this night won't last forever
We'll harvest seeds of hope we've sown
In your eyes I see you feel uncertain
In your eyes I see you feel alone
In your eyes I see your heart is hurting
You long for rest and hope and home
Dry your eyes there is an end to sorrow
Dry your eyes there is an end to night
Dry your eyes and we will shake this sorrow
The dark will run before the light
And so as season follows season
There is no love, no prayer, in vain
The hardest heart still looks for reason
As the driest earth still welcomes rain

[KEZHEAD]

Action speaks louder than words
And I'm a man of great experience
I know you got another man
But I can love you better than him
Take my hand, don't be afraid
I'm gonna prove every word I say
I'm advertising love for free
So you can place your ad with me

[richblueyes]

Put on your red shoes and dance the blues
to the song they're playing on the radio
While colour lights up your face
sway through the crowd to an empty space
If you say run, I'll run with you
And if you say hide, we'll hide
Because my love for you would break my heart in two
If you should fall, into my arms and tremble like a flower
for fear your grace should fall
for fear tonight is all
you could look into my eyes
under the moonlight, this serious moonlight
Because my love for you would break my heart in two
If you should fall, into my arms and tremble like a flower

[rdiberna]

John Lee's was rockin'.
The Imitators drove it home.
Sun was dancin' up a heat wave.
For awhile she was all alone.
When up walked a tall stranger,
Shadowed her move to move.
In perfect unison,
A supernatural groove.
