Forever Young

Saturday, December 31st, 2011

(B. Dylan)

May God bless
And keep you always
May your wishes all come true
May you always do for others
And let others do for you

May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb every road
And may you stay forever young

May you grow up to be righteous
May you grow up to be true
May you always know the...

Who A I Anyway

Wednesday, August 10th, 2011

Who am I anyway?
Am I my résumé?
That is a picture of a person I don’t know
What do I want from me?
What should I try to be?
What would it mean to be a lady
On the screen

Baby Love

Monday, July 25th, 2011

(Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland, Jr.)

Ooh baby love, my baby love
I need you, oh how I need you
But all you do is treat me bad
Break my heart and leave me sad
Tell me, what did I do wrong
To make you stay away so long

‘Cause baby love, my baby love
Been missing ya, miss kissing ya
Instead of breaking...

My World Is Empty Without You

Wednesday, June 15th, 2011

(Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland, Jr.)

My world is empty without you, baby
My world is empty without you, baby

And as I go my way alone
I find it hard for me to carry on
I need your strenght
I need your tender touch
I need the love, my dear
I miss so much

My world is empty without you, baby
My...

Ain’t Nothin’ But A Maybe

Friday, June 10th, 2011

(N. Ashford/V. Simpson)

Could it be he’s interested
Or am I just wanting it to be so
Do I dare speak to him
Should I let the moment go

Forget this hunger inside
Forget this hunger inside
Should I let the feeling flow
Should I just let it flow
Ain’t nothing maybe, baby
I sure would like to know

Could...

Didn’t You Know (You’d Have To Cry Sometime)

Saturday, April 16th, 2011

(Nickolas Ashford/Valerie Simpson)

Remember when you left?
You had your own rules about playing the game
And any day, you could walk away feeling no pain

Now look at yourself
You’re all hung up on somebody else
And in your eyes I see all the signs of the misery
That you laid on me

Baby, baby
Didn’t...

Confide In Me

Wednesday, February 16th, 2011

(Melissa Manchester/Stanley Schwartz)

Confide in me
Religh on me
And I will try to satisfy
Your every need
Through the day
‘Till we say goodnight

Take it slow, easy go
Any friend would recommend
The starlight show
On a night like this
I insist you try

Oh, now I know the nights will last

Gimme A Pigfoot (And A Bottle Of Beer)

Tuesday, February 15th, 2011

(W. Wilson)

Up in Harlem every saturday night
Were the highbrows get together, just to write
They all congregate at an allnite hack
What they do is ooh papa dah

Ol’ Hannah Brown, way cross town
Gets full of corn and starts brining ‘em down
And at the break of day
You can hear ol’ Hannah say

Gimme...

Who

Thursday, February 3rd, 2011

(Berry Blue/Rob Bowkett)

Who left my lover in the rain
Who washed away the colors in my life again
Who left my lover in the rain
Who washed away the colors in my life

There’s no use crying, trying hard
What else can I do
But he becomes another man
Another case of fool

Why go on living and giving up
Much...

(Michael Jackson)

She said she wants a man
To always understand
But that’s alright for her
Still it ain’t enough for me

She said she wants a guy
To keep her satisfied
But that’s alright for her
But it ain’t enough for me

Still, I don’t care if he’s young or old
(Just make...
