    I am: i’m me
    Who are you to look down
    At what i believe?
    I’m on to your thinking
    And how you deceive
    Well, you can’t abuse me
    I won’t stand no more
    Yes, i know the reasons
    Yes, i know the score

    I am, and i’ll be
    I will, you’ll see
    I am, and i’ll be
    I am: i’m me

    How i tried to please you
    Live the way you said
    Do the things that you do
    Like the living dead
    Then the truth it hit me
    Got me off my knees
    It’s my life i’m living
    I’ll live as i please

    I am, and i’ll be
    I will, you’ll see
    I am, and i’ll be
    I am: i’m me

    Now’s the time to stand tall
    Start your life anew
    Freedom lies in your heart
    Now’s the time for you

    I am, and i’ll be
    I will, you’ll see
    I am, and i’ll be
    I am: i’m me
    I am, i’m me
    I am, i’m me
    Can’t you see?, can’t you see?
    I’m me, i’m me, me, me, me, me
    I am: i’m me
    I am: i’m me
    Can’t you see?, can’t you see?
    I’m me, i’m me, i’m me
    I am: i’m me
    I am: i’m me
    Can’t you see that i’m me
    I’m me, i’m me, look at me
    I am: i’m me
    I am: i’m me

    James Taylor How Sweet it is

    How sweet it is to be loved by you
    How sweet it is to be loved by you

    I needed the shelter of someone’s arms, and there you were
    I needed someone to understand my ups and downs, and there you were
    With sweet love and devotion
    Deeply touching my emotion
    I want to stop and thank you baby
    I want to stop and thank you baby

    How sweet it is to be loved by you
    How sweet it is to be loved by you

    I close my eyes at night
    Wondering where would I be without you in my life
    Everything I did was just a bore
    Everywhere I went it seems I’d been there before
    But you brighten up for me all of my days
    With a love so sweet in so many ways
    I want to stop and thank you baby
    I just want to stop and thank you baby

    How sweet it is to be loved by you
    How sweet it is to be loved by you

    You were better to me than I was to myself
    For me, there’s you and there ain’t nobody else
    I want to stop and thank you baby
    I just want to stop and thank you baby

    How sweet it is to be loved by you
    How sweet it is to be loved by you

    Like a circle in a spiral
    Like a wheel within a wheel
    Never ending or beginning
    On an ever-spinning reel
    Like a snowball down a mountain
    Or a carnival balloon
    Like a carousel thats turning
    Running rings around the moon
    Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
    Past the minutes of its face
    And the world is like an apple
    Whirling silently in space
    Like the circles that you find
    In the windmills of your mind

    Like a tunnel that you follow
    To a tunnel of its own
    Down a hollow to a cavern
    Where the sun has never shone
    Like a door that keeps revolving
    In a half-forgotten dream
    Or the ripples from a pebble
    Someone tosses in a stream
    Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
    Past the minutes of its face
    And the world is like an apple
    Whirling silently in space
    Like the circles that you find
    In the windmills of your mind

    Keys that jingle in your pocket
    Words that jangle in your head
    Why did summer go so quickly?
    Was it something that you said?
    Lovers walk along a shore
    And leave their footprints in the sand
    Is the sound of distant drumming
    Just the fingers of your hand?
    Pictures hanging in a hallway
    And the fragment of a song
    Half-remembered names and faces
    But to whom do they belong?
    When you knew that it was over
    You were suddenly aware
    That the autumn leaves were turning
    To the colour of her hair

    Like a circle in a spiral
    Like a wheel within a wheel
    Never ending or beginning
    On an ever-spinning reel
    As the images unwind
    Like the circles that you find
    In the windmills of your mind

    One of the saddest, most beautiful songs ever written..

    You Have Been Loved

    She takes the back road and the lane
    Past the school that has not changed
    In all this time
    She thinks of when the boy was young
    All the battles she had won
    Just to give him life

    That man
    She loved that man
    For all his life
    And now we meet to take him flowers
    And only God knows why

    For what’s the use in pressing palms
    When children fade in mother’s arms
    It’s a cruel world
    We’ve so much to lose
    And what we have to learn
    We rarely choose

    So if it’s God who took her son
    He cannot be the one living in her mind

    Take care my love she said
    Don’t think that God is dead
    Take care my love she said
    You have been loved

    If I was weak forgive me
    But I was terrified
    You brushed my eyes with angels wings
    Full of love
    The kind that makes devils cry

    So these days
    My life has changed
    And I’ll be fine
    But she just sits and counts the hours
    Searching for her crime

    So what’s the use in pressing palms
    If you won’t keep such love from harm
    It’s a cruel world
    You’ve so much to prove

    And heaven help the ones
    Who wait for you

    Well I’ve no daughters I’ve no sons
    Guess I’m the only one
    Living in my life

    Take care my love he said
    Don’t think that God is dead
    Take care my love he said
    You have been loved

    George Michael

    Dont be afraid to be weak
    Dont be too proud to be strong
    Just look into your heart my friend
    That will be the return to yourself
    The return to innocence
    .
    If you want, then start to laugh
    If you must, then start to cry
    Be yourself dont hide
    Just believe in destiny
    .
    Dont care what people say
    Just follow your own way
    Dont give up and use the chance
    To return to innocence
    .
    Thats not the beginning of the end
    Thats the return to yourself
    The return to innocence

    Return to innocence

    what a good year for the roses..

    I can hardly bear the sight of lipstick on the cigarettes there in the ashtray
    Lyin cold the way you left em, but at least your lips caressed them while
    You packed
    Or the lip-print on a half-filled cup of coffee that you poured and didnt drink
    But at least you thought you wanted it, thats so much more than I can say
    For me

    What a good year for the roses
    Many blooms still linger there
    The lawn could stand another mowin
    Funny I dont even care
    As you turn to walk away
    As the door behind you closes
    The only thing I have to say
    Its been a good year for the roses

    After three full years of marriage, its the first time that you havent
    Made the bed
    I guess the reason were not talkin, theres so little left to say we
    Havent said
    While a million thoughts go racin through my mind, I find I havent said a word
    >from the bedroom the familiar sound of a babys cryin goes unheard

    What a good year for the roses
    Many blooms still linger there
    The lawn could stand another mowin
    Funny I dont even care
    As you turn to walk away
    As the door behind you closes
    The only thing I have to say
    Its been a good year for the roses

    “Show me how you do that trick
    The one that makes me scream” she said
    “The one that makes me laugh” she said
    And threw her arms around my neck
    “Show me how you do it
    And I promise you I promise that
    I’ll run away with you
    I’ll run away with you”

    Spinning on that dizzy edge
    I kissed her face and kissed her head
    And dreamed of all the different ways I had
    To make her glow
    “Why are you so far away?” she said
    “Why won’t you ever know that I’m in love with you
    That I’m in love with you”

    You
    Soft and only
    You
    Lost and lonely
    You
    Strange as angels
    Dancing in the deepest oceans
    Twisting in the water
    You’re just like a dream

    Daylight licked me into shape
    I must have been asleep for days
    And moving lips to breathe her name
    I opened up my eyes
    And found myself alone alone
    Alone above a raging sea
    That stole the only girl I loved
    And drowned her deep inside of me

    You
    Soft and only
    You
    Lost and lonely
    You
    Just like heaven

    Man Out Of Time

    So this is where he came to hide
    When he ran from you
    In a private detective overcoat
    And dirty dead man’s shoes

    The pretty things of Knightsbridge
    Lying for a minister of state
    Are a far cry from the nod and wink
    Here at traitor’s gate

    ‘Cause the high heel he used to be has been ground down
    And he listens to the footsteps that would follow him around

    To murder my love is a crime
    But will you still love
    A man out of time

    There’s a tuppeny hapenny millionaire
    Looking for a fourpenny one
    With a tight grip on the short hairs
    Of the public imagination

    But for his private wife and kids somehow
    Real life becomes a rumour
    Days of dutch courage
    Just three French letters
    And a German sense of humour

    He’s got a mind like a sewer and a heart like a fridge
    He stands to be insulted and he pays for the privilege

    To murder my love is a crime
    But will you still love
    A man out of time

    The biggest wheels of industry
    Retire sharp and short
    And the after dinner overtures
    Are nothing but an after thought
    Somebody’s creeping in the kitchen
    There’s a reputation to be made
    Whose nerves are always on a knife’s edge
    Who’s up late polishing the blade

    Love is always scarpering or cowering or fawning
    You drink yourself insensitive and hate yourself in the morning

    To murder my love is a crime
    But will you still love
    A man out of time

    Will you still love
    A man out of time

    Will you still love
    A man out of time

    Elvis Costello
