I've been watching you Not waiting for the right
moment to make the first move Do you want to know why I
keep avoiding your eyes And why I'm running away? It's crazy, I know
I've been conceiving you for
too long
Or maybe I'm destined to be
alone? Or maybe there's someone who
will understand That I'm not able to share my
world? I'm still running away It's crazy, I know
from
Mathilda the musical
great performance by Alisha Weir
Jack
and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water
So they say, their subsequent fall was inevitable
They never stood a change, they were written that way Innocent victims of their
story
Like Romeo and Juliet
T was written in the stars before they even met
that love and fat and a touch of stupitity would rob them of their hope
of living happily
the endings are often a little bit gory
I wonder why they didnt just change their story
We,re told we have to do what we're tol but surely Sometimes you have to be a
little bit naughty Just because you find that
life's not fair, it Doesn't mean that you just
have to grin and bear it
If yu always take it on the chin and wear it noghting will change
Even if you little you can do a lot you must let a little thinl like
little stop you If you sit around and let
them get on top, you Might as well be saying you
think that it's okay And that's not right Cinderella
in the cellar Didn't have to do much, as
far as I could tell Her godmother was two-thirds
fairy And suddenly her lot was a
lot less scary But what if you haven't got a
fairy to fix it Sometimes you have to make a
little bit of mischief Just
because you find that life's not fair, it Doesn't mean that you just
have to grin and bear it
If you always take it on the chin and wear it nothing will change
Even if you little you can do a lot you musht let a little thing like
little stop you If you sit around and let
them get on top, you Might as well be saying you
think that it's okay And that's not right

(wikipedia) Rudy's
on a train to nowhere,
Halfway down the line.
He don't wanna get there,
But he needs time.
He ain't sophisticated,
nor well-educated.
After all the hours he's wasted,
Still he needs time...
He needs time!
He needs a time for livin'
He needs time
For someone just to see him
He ain't had no lovin'
For no reason or rhyme
And the whole world's above him
Well it's not as though he's fat
No, there's more to it than that
See he tries to play it cool
Wouldn't be nobody's fool
Rudy thought,
That all good things,
Comes to those that wait
But recently,
He could see
That it may come, but too
late.. too late... too late
All through your life
All through the years
Nobody loves
Nobody cares
So dim the light
dark are your fears
Try as I might,
I can't hold back the tears
How can you live, without
love, it's not fair
Someone said give, but I just
didn't dare
I didn't dare
I didn't dare
What good advice
Are you waiting to hear?
Hearing's alrightfor them
that's all there
You'd better, you'd better get
control of
You'd better show 'em all now
You'd better make or break now
You'd better give and take now
You'll have to push and show
them
You'll have to find some love
now...
You'd better gain control now
Now he's just come out the
movie
Numb of all the pain
Sad but in a while he'll soon
be
Back on his train
Susanne Vega
Solitude stands by the window She turns her head as I walk
in the room I can see by her eyes she's
been waiting Standing in the slant of the
late afternoon
And she turns to me with her
hand extended Her palm is split with a
flower, with a flame
Solitude stands in the
doorway I'm struck once again by her
black silhouette By her long cool stare and
her silence I suddenly remember each
time we've met
And she turns to me with her
hand extended Her palm is split with a
flower, with a flame
And she says, "I've come to
set a twisted thing straight" And she says, "I've come to
lighten this dark heart" And she takes my wrist, I
feel her imprint of fear And I said, "I never thought
of finding you here"
Rodger Hodson Desert Love Roger
Hodgson, former vocalist and songwriter from Supertramp. Did I tell you I need your
love a little more each day Did I tell you I'm feeling
old since you went away Did I tell you my love was
cold like the desert night Did I tell you my heart was
dry like the desert sky
Chorus: Oh, will you love me again,
won't you help out a friend Will you love me again
Did I tell you my lips were
cold like the desert night Did I tell you my heart was
dry like the desert sky And if I need anyone to hold
will you say you might

hour Using my power I sent it by the hour I have it so I'm mocking it You really can afford it-yeah Really can afford it
Shooting stars never stop Even when they reach the top Shooting stars never stop Even when they reach the top
There goes a supernova What a pushover-yeah There goes a supernova What a pushover
We're a long way from home Welcome to the Pleasuredome On our way home Going home where lovers roam Long way from home Welcome to the Pleasuredome
Moving on Keep moving on
I will give you diamonds by
the shower Love your body even when it's
old Do it just as only I can do it And never ever doing what I'm
told
Keep moving on Got to reach the top
Don't stop Pay love and life-oh my Keep moving on On again-yeah
Shooting stars never stop Shooting stars never stop Shooting stars never stop Even when they reach the top There goes a supernova What a pushover
