JUST CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT YOU

You to me are just like blood
I can’t be without you
In my heart and in my head
Just can’t live without you

You to me are just like the air
I can’t live without you
What I breathe is what I am
Just can’t live without you

You to me are just like drink
I can’t live without you
Need you now more than you think
Just can’t live without you

You to me are like the sun
I can’t live without you
Shedding light on every one
Just can’t live without you

You to me are like my life
I can’t live without you
One day soon you’ll be my wife
Just can’t live without you.

KEEP ON KEEPING ON

They all think that we are the beat
But we know that they are wrong
For we know life will be sweet
If we keep on keeping on

They all think they’ve got us down
But we know that we are strong
For we know that good comes around
If we keep on keeping on

They all want to see us fall
But we see our chance has come
We know we can have it all
If we keep on keeping on

They all want to see us cry
But we know the race is long
One day they will see us fly
If we keep on keeping on
If we keep on keeping on.

HAPPY

Happy cheeky little boys
They all need their little toys
Cheeky sassy little girls
Want the boys to see their curls

And we all play the game
And we all play the same
We’re happy when we play
So we play our lives away

Naughty sneaky little boys
Must have their little joys
Dirty flirty little girls
Want to get their gold and pearls

And we all play the game
And we all play the same
We’re happy when we play
So we play our lives away

Happy cheerful little men
Worked to death and what then
Sad little older women
Sleep alone, oh what a living

And we all play the game
And we all play the same
We’re happy when we play
So we play our lives away

OK NOW

I know that you are bleeding
Hurting all alone
The words of love are stinging
When you find love has gone
But put your trust in me now
I won’t give up on you
Tomorrow is another day
And you will pull thru

I see you bruised and beaten
Your heart is cut and torn
Your friends have all abandoned you
But I will keep you warm
I’ll help you through the night
Tomorrow is another day
And it will be alright.

CUT TO THE BONE

Like a leaf without a tree
Like a sky without a bird
Like a day without a night
Like a love that must be shared
Like a song without a tune
Like a house that’s not a home
When you decided to go
You cut me to the bone

Like a flower without a scent
Like a home without a floor
Like the sun without the heat
Like a beach without a shore
Like a card without a stamp
Like a house that’s not a home
When you decided to go
You cut me to the bone

Like a wasp without a sting
Like a star without a light
Like a sea without a fish
Like a never ending night
Like a bee without its honey
Like a birthday on my own
When you decided to go
You cut me to the bone.

MEET ME ON THE BORDER

Meet me on the border
On the line ‘tween you and me
We’re both growing older
What will be, will be
Meet me in the meadow
Sit with me by the pool
Don’t talk in shadows
You know I’m not a fool

Meet me in the Beech wood
Sit by me on the grass
Tell me all your secrets
There is no fail no pass
Meet me in the quiet places
Where I can touch your soul
Meet me half way there
And I will give my all

Meet me in the moonlight
Beneath the old bare trees
Hold me through the dark nights
Stay with me please
Meet me as a lover
Be my love tonight
Love me like no other
Love me through the night.

AND ALL THE OTHER PEOPLE

So one night I said to Kathy
We gotta get away somewhere
Go somewhere south and somewhere warm
But for God’s sake let’s go now
And Kathy she sort of looks at me
And asks where I gonna go
So I look back and I hear me say
I don’t care but we gotta go

And in LA we bought a bus
Sort of old and not too smart
So for six hundred and fifty bucks
We got out and made a start
We hit the road down to the South
And drove into Mexico
That old bus was some old wreck
But it just kept us on the road

We drove up to Alabam
And a farmer gave us some jobs
We worked them crops all night and day
And at night we slept like dogs
We got paid and Kathy said to me
It’s time to make a move again
And when I looked into her eyes
I saw more than a friend

And now we’ve stopped our travels
And we sold the bus in Texas
And we made our home in Austin
And for sure it ain’t no palace
And Kathy and me we settled down
And now our first kid’s on the way
Kathy and me and that old bus
We did real good to get away

And all the other people
Who sleepwalk thru their days
Just sort of faded out of sight
When we two drove away
And ev’ry day we travelled
We were lookin’ to get wise
And we learned what was the truth
And we learned what were the lies.
