How Long Is Too Long Wasn't Long Enough

[Nearly Sane]

Your cheatin' heart
Will pine some day
And crave the love
You threw away
The time will come
When you'll be blue
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you...

When tears come down
Like falling rain
You'll toss around
And call my name
You'll walk the floor
The way I do
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you.

[Robbie]

The sun died, the sun died, with my love
When you left me blue
The summer died too
My love and the sun, it's the same

The sun died, the sun died with my love
And I'm so alone
And yet life goes on
But for me there can't be no more dawn

Yesterday, the coldest winter was like spring
I thought my heart would always sing
I thought our love would never end
But that was yesterday

[Nearly Sane]

The sun on the meadow is summery warm
The stag in the forest runs free
But gathered together to greet the storm
Tomorrow belongs to me
Tomorrow belongs to me

The branch on the linden is leafy and green
The Rhine gives its gold to the sea
But somewhere a glory awaits unseen
Tomorrow belongs to me
Tomorrow belongs to me

[Aruntraveller]

Still sends shivers......


The sun will come out
Tomorrow
Bet your bottom dollar
That tomorrow
There'll be sun!

Just thinking about
Tomorrow
Clears away the cobwebs,
And the sorrow
'Til there's none!

[Nearly Sane]

As did the Annie song for different reasons.



When they get to the part
Where he's breakin' her heart
It can really make me cry
Just like before
It's yesterday once more

Lookin' back on how it was
In years gone by
And the good times that I had
Makes today seem rather sad
So much has changed

It was songs of love that
I would sing to then
And I'd memorize each word
Those old melodies
Still sound so good to me
As they melt the years away

Every Sha-la-la-la
Every Wo-o-wo-o
Still shines
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they're startin' to sing's
So fine

[Aruntraveller]

Don't go breaking my heart
I couldn't if I tried
Honey, if I get restless
Baby, you're not that kind
Don't go breaking my heart
You take the weight off me
Oh, honey, when you knock on my door
Ooh, I gave you my key
Ooh-hoo, nobody knows it
When I was down
I was your clown
Ooh-hoo, nobody knows it, nobody knows
Right from the start
I gave you my heart
Oh oh, I gave you my heart

[Robbie]

I absoflippinglutely love that song Trent.

I heard you told your friends I wrote you a breakup song
The funny thing is, it wasn't even about you
Ok, maybe I did
So, what if it was?
That don't make you a king

The world ain't revolving around you
I'm in my car, riding around
My bass is up, no slowing down
Love ain't a game, don't got no time
No, you don't see me crying, no baby, baby

I ain't gonna hit you with a heartbreak song
I ain't gonna give you what you're betting on
'Cause boy you don't deserve a single word
Don't know if you heard
I forgot all about you

I ain't gonna bore you with a sob story
Go crying to my friends and throw a hate party
It's so overrated, overplayed, and I'm ok
I'm just better without you

[Aruntraveller]

I got to say it and it's hard for me
You got me crying like I thought I would never be
Love is believing, but you let me down
How can I love you when you ain't around

And I get to the morning and you never call
Love should be everything or not at all
And it don't matter whatever you do
I made a life out of loving you

Only to find any dream that I follow is dying
I'm crying in the rain
I could be searching my world for a love everlasting
Feeling no pain
When will we meet again

Why do you have to be a heartbreaker
Is it a lesson that I never knew
Got to get out of the spell that I'm under
My love for you

[Nearly Sane]

Here in my car
Where the image breaks down
Will you visit me please
If I open my door
In cars

Here in my car
I know I've started to think
About leaving tonight
Although nothing seems right
In cars

[Aruntraveller]

If you wanna make me happy, here is all you gotta do
Take me where you're going and I'll take care of you
'Cause I got this need that's growing to keep you satisfied
And if you keep your green light showing well you can take me for a ride

'Cause I la la la la la la love you
And I la la la la la la care
And I really want you with me baby everywhere

Well, I like the way you're moving, and I like a the way you go
I like the way you let your locomotion show
'Cause my drivin' wheel is drivin' and my piston's working good
And if your motor gives you some trouble baby, I'll take a look underneath your hood (yes, I would)

[Robbie]

I got a brand new car
And I like to drive real hard
I got a brand new car
And I'm feeling good so far

Take her on the highway for a little spin
I want to see the kind of shape she's in
And I got a brand new star
Jack her up baby, go on, open the hood
I want to check if her oil smells good
Mm, smells like caviar

Mm, give her some stick
Push her too far
Right to the brink

[Aruntraveller]

I've been lookin' around awhile
You've got something for me
Well, I've got a brand new pair of roller skates
You got a brand new key

I ride my bike, I roller skate, don't drive no car
Don't go so fast, but I go pretty far
For somebody who don't drive, I've been all around the world
Some people say I've done all right for a girl

[Nearly Sane]

Last week it went 'round the clock
I also had a little knock
I dented somebody's fender
He'll learn not to park on a bender
Ha ha ha

I've been driving in my car
It don't look much but I've been far
I drive up to Muswell Hill
I've even been to Selsey Bill

I drove along the A45
I had her up to fifty-eight
This copper stopped me the other day
You're mistaken what could i say?

[Aruntraveller]

Driving down those city streets
Waiting to get down
Won't you get your big machine
Somewhere in this town?
Now in the parking lot garage
You'll find the proper place
Just follow all the written rules
You'll fit into the space

Pull up to my bumper baby
In your long black limousine
Pull up to my bumper baby
And drive it in between

Pull up
To it
Don't drive
Through it

Back it
Up twice
Now that
Fit's nice

[Nearly Sane]

White wheels in the city tonight
There is dust in their hearts
They turn they burn and bring me down
There is dust in their hearts

Cool blue notes echo this land loud
The jewels in my heart
Strike a chord and break my spine
There is dust in their hearts

I saw your face
In a long white car
Move away from here
Get away from here

[Aruntraveller]

o kodwa you zo-nge li-sa namhlange
(A-wa a-wa) si-bona kwenze ka kanjani
(A-wa a-wa) amanto mbazane ayeza
She's a rich girl
She don't try to hide it
Diamonds on the soles of her shoes

He's a poor boy
Empty as a pocket
Empty as a pocket with nothing to lose
Sing ta na na
Ta na na na

She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes
She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes

[Nearly Sane]

Got brass in pocket
 Got bottle, I'm gonna use it
 Intention, I feel inventive
 Gonna make you, make you, make you notice

 Got motion, restrained emotion
 Been driving Detroit leaning
 No reason, just seems so pleasing
 Gonna make you, make you, make you notice


 Gonna use my arms
 Gonna use my legs
 Gonna use my style
 Gonna use my side step
 Gonna use my fingers
 Gonna use my, my, my imagination

[Aruntraveller]

Each day through my window I watch her as she passes by
I say to myself you're such a lucky guy
To have a girl like her is truly a dream come true
Out of all the fellows in the world she belongs to me
But it was just my imagination
Runnin' away with me
It was just my imagination runnin' away with me

[Nearly Sane]

You don't want to hurt me,
 But see how deep the bullet lies.
 Unaware I'm tearing you asunder.
 Ooh, there is thunder in our hearts.

 Is there so much hate for the ones we love?
 Tell me, we both matter, don't we?
 You, it's you and me.
 It's you and me won't be unhappy.

 And if I only could,
 I'd make a deal with God,
 And I'd get him to swap our places,
 Be running up that road,
 Be running up that hill,
 Be running up that building,
 Say, if I only could, oh...

[Aruntraveller]

Good morn or evening friends
Here's your friendly announcer
I have serious news to pass on to every-body
What I'm about to say
Could mean the world's disaster
Could change your joy and laughter to tears and pain

It's that
Love's in need of love today
Don't delay
Send yours in right away
Hate's goin' round
Breaking many hearts
Stop it please
Before it's gone too far

[Nearly Sane]

Hello good morning, how ya doing?
 Waking up shaking off yesterday's booze yeah
 Turn the TV off cause bad news man
 Feeling fresh like a Ziploc new man
 OJ with a champagne tune up
 Mimosa holy ghost running through
 Hell yeah, it's a new hallelujah
 Popping like the top off a bottle and I ain't stopping yeah

 Baby it's a brand new day
 Ain't no clouds hanging over me
 Something doesn't feel the same
 The rest of my life gonna start today
 Good morning

[Robbie]

The sun in the morning
Comes over the hill
And kisses the tall grass beside me

We are so young at heart
And living is an art
To be good at

We get our strength in the day time
By the sun's golden rays
That lasts us into the night time
We find ourselves in many ways

The sun in the morning
A new day’s a dawning
Look out your window
And see yourself walking
Through fields of love
And the sky up above
Is with you

[Nearly Sane]

You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Among the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky,
When we walked in fields of gold

So she took her love for to gaze awhile,
Among the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold.

Will you stay with me? Will you be my love
Among the fields of barley?
And you can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold.

[Robbie]

Thank you for coming home
Sorry that the chairs are all worn
I left them here I could have sworn
These are my salad days
Slowly being eaten away
Just another play for today

Oh, but I'm proud of you
But I'm proud of you
Nothing left to make me feel small
Luck has left me standing so tall
Gold
(Gold)
Always believe in your soul
You've got the power to know
You're indestructible, always believe in, 'cos you are
Gold
(Gold)
I'm glad that you're bound to return
There's something I could have learned
You're indestructible, always believe in

[Nearly Sane]

Well, I met an old man walkin' down the street
His clothes were torn and tattered
With sandals on his feet
And I stopped to help him
And lend him a hand
He said, I love you so much
But you must understand

Silver and gold might buy you a home
But things of this world
They won't last you long
And time has a way of turning us old
And time can't be bought back with silver and gold
