It don't matter to the sun
If you go or if you stay
I know the sun is gonna rise
Shine down on another day
There will still be a tomorrow
Even if you choose to leave
'Cause it don't matter to the sun (oh baby)
It matters to me

It ain't gonna stop the world
If you walk out that door
This old world will just keep on turning 'round (turning 'round)
Like it did the day before
'Cause see to them it makes no difference (ohh)
It just keeps on keepin' time
'Cause it ain't gonna stop the world (Oh baby)
But it'll be the end of mine

What can I say
What can I do
I'm still in love
So without you

What can I say
What can I do
I'm still in love
So without you

It don't matter the moon
If your not in my life
No the moon will just keep hangin' 'round (hangin' 'round)
Like it's just another night
Find another place to shine on down
On some other lovers dreams
'Cause it don't matter the moon (oh baby)
But is sure do matter to me
No it don't matter to the moon (oh baby)
But it matters to me.   (Back to Top)
 

That's The Way I Remember It   (Back to Top)

My little good-byes
Empty hangers by the closet floor
Lipstick tube on the bathroom floor
My little good-byes
Unpaid bills by the kitchen phone
I took the Beatles, left Billy Joel
Little goodbyes, little goodbyes

I'm sure, you're sure I'll be back in just an hour or two
You'll tape a Hallmark to my door
They always said it better than you
And if you're wondering
When you're gonna hear from me
Well, take a real good look around boy
And it won't be hard to see
When you come home tonight and turn on the light
Don't you be surprised to find

My little goodbyes
Took your favorite Dodgers hat
Left the litter, but I took the cat
My little goodbyes
Loaded up the TV in the back of my car
Have fun watching the VCR
Little goodbyes, oh baby, little goodbyes

So cry to your mama
And your sympathetic friends and tell 'em
And tell 'em how the story ends

My little goodbyes
Took the hourglass left the sand
Now you got time on your hands
My little goodbyes
Took the statue from Japan
Funny little Buddah man

My little goodbyes
Change my voice on the machine
Or there'll be little goodbyes with every ring
Left the pictures and took the frames
I've got the umbrella, here comes the rain
Yeah yeah yeah
Rain, yeah yeah yeah
Little goodbyes
Hey, hey - yeah yeah yeah
Hey, hey - yeah yeah yeah
Little goodbyes.   (Back to Top)
 

Way of the Girl (Back to Top)

You persue her in mazes
Always one step behind
You'd change the world for her graces
But she keeps changing her mind

It's just the way of the girl, just the way of the girl
It's just the way of the girl, just the way of the girl

Some made it for money
Some made it for love
Some made it for romance
My baby's all the above

It's just the way of the girl, just the way of the girl
(Just the way it is, can't help it)
It's just the way of the girl, just the way of the girl.   (Back to Top)
 

Lost in You (Back to Top)

Heaven knows
I'm head over heels and it shows
I've played every field I suppose
But there's something about you
When you're around
Baby I have found
I get lost in you

What is this feeling
I've never known before
That I should touch you
Swearing to surrender ever more
That's what I came here for

Heaven knows
I'm head over heels and it shows
I've played every field I suppose
But there's something about you
When you're around
Baby I have found
I get lost in a wonderful daze
Lost in your wonderful ways

Heaven knows

When you're around
Baby I have found
I get lost

Heaven knows
I'm head over heels and it shows
I've played every field I suppose
But there's something about you
When you're around
Baby I have found
I get lost in you.   (Back to Top)
 

Snow in July  (Back to Top)

Now you're talking 'bout your freedom
What is that you say
You suddenly declared to me
Your independence day

Caught me by surprise
Fog turning to ice

Well it ain't even cold, baby,
How could it snow in July

Well, you led me to believe that
You found everything you needed
In my arms, for so long
I thought everything was fine
Now you're turning on a dime
And moving on, moving on
Now I should have brought my sweater
For a chill is in the air
There's a sudden change of weather
For which I am not prepared

Caught me by surprise
Fog turning to ice

Well, it ain't even cold, baby
How could it snow in July

Well, I should have brought my sweater
For a chill is in the air
There's a sudden change of weather
For which I am not prepared

Caught me by surprise
Fog turning to ice

Well, it ain't even cold baby
How could it snow in July. (Back to Top)
 

Driftin' Away (Back to Top)

But I'm so afraid that you've forgiven me one too many times
And I'm so afraid to give my heart again, just to have a change of mind
And I'm not quite sure that you can trust me
And I would hate to have you find me again
Baby, like the wind, driftin away

It blows and nobody knows where it's going to
(I'm driftin away)
It blows and nobody know what it's gonna do

With all of my heart, I know I disappointed you
And although I'm real sorry
I don't know how to save this time
But, if I would lose you
I know I would go completely out of my mind
I'm running out of time

And I'm so afraid that you've forgiven me one too many times
And I'm so afraid to give my heart again just to have a change of mind
And I'm not quite sure that you can trust me
And I would hate to have you find me again
Baby, like the wind, driftin away

It blow and nobody knows where it's going to
(Driftin away)
It blows and nobody knows what it's gonna do
(You see my heart at night)
At night you can hear it cry as the tear drops fall from heaven's eyes
(Fallin down)
And somehow you know it's true, these tears that fall are fallin for you
(Fallin for you)

It blows and nobody knows where's it going to
(Fallin down)
It blows and nobody knows what it's gonna do
At night you can hear it cry as the tear drops fall from heaven's eyes
And somehow you know it's true these tears that fall are for you. (Back to Top)
 

Unsigned Letter   (Back to Top)

She got an unsigned letter from her secret someone
And she fell into the mystery
Words were few and specifically vague 
Intrinsic intrigue
But it said everything
When it just read come to me

She's always been that responsible someone
Safe within her simplicity
But all this cloak and dagger is stoking her heart
Stroking her curiosity
Is plain little Jane
Gonna risk everything

Is she gonna strike the match
That'll surely light the flame
Is she carrying a torch for love in vain
Is she gonna break the locks
Take a look inside the box
Knowing that she could release Pandora's shame
Welcome to the game
What's in a name

She must be dreamin as she boards a plane
And flies into her fantasy
A first class ticket to the city of Boston
Is all she knows of her destiny
When she touches down
Will her feet hit the ground

Is she gonna strike the match
That'll surely light the flame
Is she carrying a torch for love in vain
Is the gonna bread the locks
Take a look inside the box
Knowing that she could release Pandora's shame
Welcome to the game
What's in a name

Is our little plain Jane
Gonna risk everything

Yeah.
Is she gonna strike the match
That'll surely light the flame
Is she carrying the torch for love in vain
Is the gonna break the locks
Take a look inside the box
Knowin that she could release Pandora's shame
Oh, welcome to the game
What's in a name.   (Back to Top)
 

Right Now   (Back to Top)

Maybe it’s the movies, maybe it’s the books
Maybe it’s the government and all the other crooks
Maybe it’s the drugs, maybe it’s the parents
Maybe it’s the gangs, or the colors that we’re wearin'
Maybe it’s the high schools, maybe it’s the teachers
Tattoos, pipe bombs underneath the bleachers
Maybe it’s the music, maybe it’s the crack
Maybe it’s the bible, or could it be the lack

Come on people, now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another, right now...right now

Okay, maybe it’s the papers, maybe it’s the family
Maybe it’s the internet, radio, TV
Maybe it’s the president, maybe it’s the last one
Maybe it’s the one before that
Maybe it’s the athletes, maybe it’s the dads
Maybe it’s the sports fans, agents, fads
Maybe it’s the homeless, aliens, immigrants
Maybe it’s life, don’t tell me that it’s imminent

Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now
You gotta love one another

Maybe it’s the fallout, maybe it’s the ozone
Maybe it’s the chemicals, the radiation, cell phones
Maybe it’s the magazines, maybe it the next page
Lotteries, fast food, bad news, road rage
Maybe it the unions, big business
Maybe it’s the KKK and the skinheads
Maybe it’s the daughters, maybe it’s the sons
Maybe it’s the brothers of the mothers or the guns

Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

(You know, if we don’t talk about it
It ain’t gonna get better)

We gotta love one another

(So, whadda say, let’s talk)

Maybe it’s the parks, maybe it’s the sex
Maybe it’s the talk shows, maybe it’s a reflex
Maybe it’s the taxes, maybe it’s the system
Judges, lawyers, prisons
Maybe it’s the Catholics, maybe it’s the Protestants
Maybe it’s the addicts, and the hippies and communists
Maybe it’s a fashion, maybe it’s a trend
Maybe it’s the future; maybe it’s the end.  (Back to Top)
 

Main Street   (Back to Top)

One light blinking off and on
Blood of life in this town is gone
Lost all its pieces but the pawn
Tomorrow stopped coming with the dawn

In my dreams, I've seen
Things that only seem to happen on the silver screen
When it's over there's no walking out
Cuz I've been all they talk about
Cuz what ain't goin' down
On Main Street

I went too early with a friend of mine
just to see what it was all about
Hit the freeway and it blew my mind,
I had to find a way of gettin' out
She said, they say, hey you gotta live a little
In my mind, I'd find lost ain't living,
even there in the middle of Main Street 

Yeah....

Never did the things I though I would
Woulda left just didn't know I could
If things don't work like they should
It ain't for better but it's for good

Cuz in my dreams I've seen
Things that only seem to happen on the silver screen
When it's over there's no walking out
Cuz I've been all they talk about
Cuz what ain't goin' down
In my dreams I've seen
Things that only seem to happen on the silver screen
When it's over there's no walking out
Cuz I've been all they talk about
Cuz what ain't goin' down
On Main Street.   (Back to Top)
 

White Flag   (Back to Top)

I say black, you say white
I say day, you call it a night
What's wrong with this scene
What does this mean

You set me up, shoot me down
I'm wounded on this battleground
It's time, for sure, for ending this war
Cuz my heart can't take anymore

Sendin' up, sendin' up, sendin' up a white flag
Love won't have a chance if all we do is just fight about it
Sendin' up, sendin up, sendin' up a white flag
Damn these circumstance
Love is headed for a fall
So before we lose it all, oh baby
I'm sendin' up a white flag

Place no blame, what's the use
Lay these weapons down and call a truce
Can't we (can't we) work it out (work it out)
Cuz I love you baby, ain't no doubt
Isn't that what love's about

Sendin' up, sendin' up, sendin' up a white flag
Love won't have a chance if all we do is fight about it
Sendin' up, sendin' up, sendin' up a white flag
Damn these circumstance
Love is headed for a fall
So before we lose it all, oh baby
I'm sendin' up a white flag

I'm sendin' up a white flag. (Back to Top)
 

Diggin' For Gold   (Back to Top)

They married on a fancy yacht out on the water
He knew she was young enough to be his daughter
There always questions in the heart of millionaires
Would she make heartfelt promises if the money was not there

And he said, do you love me, baby, do you want me to hold
Or are you just digging for gold
Do you care enough to give me your heart and soul
Or are you just digging for gold

She ran his weary heart through the ringer
And she wore him like the diamond ring around her finger
Well, his advances and affections, she managed to avoid
But, she got the lap of luxury and he got paranoid

And he said, do you love me, baby, do you want me to hold
Or are you just digging for gold
Do you care enough to give me your heart and soul
Or are you just digging for gold, digging for gold

Big house, limousines,
Fine wines, fine cuisines,
Vale and Vegas twice a year,
Trips to Paris on the leer

Black Tuesday when that wall of wealth came crashing down
Bad news day when that little queen had to give back her crown
And he said, hey babe, we can live on love cuz love is worth much more
But he barely got his feelings out, she was half way to the door
And she never even heard him cry

Do you love me, baby, do you want me to hold
Or are you just digging for gold
Do you care enough to give me your heart and soul
Or are you just digging for gold. (Back to Top)
 
 

Maybe (Back to Top)

Yesterday the odds were stacked in favor of my expectations
Flyin' above the rest, never fallin' from the nest
Tuesday came and went and I'm in a little situation
Maybe it's for the best
I could live alone, I guess

Maybe I could stand alone
Maybe I'm strong as stone
Even though the bird has flown
Maybe she'll fly on home

Excuse me if I'm keeping you apart from better conversation
Hung up on all my doubt
Trying to sort the whole thing out
Tell me that I'm smart enough to deal with all the information
Spinning inside my head
Every word she ever said

Maybe I could stand alone
Maybe I'm strong as stone
Even though the bird has flown
Maybe she'll fly on home. (Back to Top)
 
 

My Love Tells Me So   (Back to Top)

You don't have to cry when I say good-bye, good-bye
You know I'll be coming back real soon
And when I do, you know
It will be such a sweet hello

Rising like the sun above the sky line, sky line
Love is brighter than ever before
And that should be understood
When is said I do you knew I would

Some things can be good forever
My love tells me so
Two hearts can be one together
My love tells me so

Let me lay your head upon my pillow, baby
Whisper what you need to me, my dear (my dear)
Don't worry, close your eyes
Morning will find me by your side

Some things can be good forever
My love tells me so
Two hearts can be one together
My love tells me so

Give me a chance and I'll sing for you
I have a song for you
To be with you is a dream
I dream of you

Some things can be good forever
My love tells me so.  (Back to Top)
