1. MY OWN ADVICE (Shoshkes)

A quarter to three take a look at me
A quarter to five barely alive
I really couldn't tell you what I did all day
Went for a walk went for a drive
Spent hours by myself alone inside
Looking for a boat to row by the riverside

If I could take my own advice
I might be sitting on sugar spice
Do it once and don't think twice....oh yeah
Staring at a cactus tree
Western Union who could it be
If only a certain voice would make the call
Makes no sense say it anyway
The deeper you go the farther away
Might be time to get lost inside it all

If I could take my own advice
I might be sitting on sugar spice
Do it once and don't think twice.... oh yeah

Horse got a view in a field of clover
Rover got a bone and he's rolling over
There's a cat with a key to me and he's got it all

If I could take my own advice
I might be sitting on sugar spice
Just do it once and don't think twice.... oh yeah

2. FIND THE LOVE (Shoshkes)

I've got the sweetest love letters from you
I believe every word you wrote me is true
Sometimes I take them out and read them to myself at night
When I'm feeling cold and I'm feeling I could use some light

Find the love
Spark the fire
Fan the flames
Take it higher

Tuesday's on and Monday's gone, long gone
Thursday's coming round, you know it won't be long
Sometimes I'm afraid that time is going to wear us down
But all I've got to do is take a good look around

Find the love
Spark the fire
Fan the flames
Take it higher
Find the love
Spark the fire
Fan the flames
Take it higher
Find the love

3. BRING IT ALL (Shoshkes/Graham)

I got a feeling for you when we first met
It came to me in a dream
And I’ll never forget
You and me, together
By the banks of a shining river
Under the stars
In the middle
Of July

And you bring your heart, bring your love, you bring it all
Take the sweet of my touch
Bring your soul
And in the dream I know
With you I can let go
And bring it all

Some days my longing for you is just as bad as it gets
And I’m all full of wonder and hope
But it’s mixed with regret
Hold me in your presence
Burn my lips with your kiss
Oh, I’m so ready for this

Could you bring your heart , bring your love, bring it all
Take the sweet of my touch, bring your soul
Let me know
If you can let go
And bring it all

I think I know
With you I can let go
And bring it all

4. COMES WITH KISSES (Shoshkes/Graham)

Sunlight on the wind
Blue sky holding me up
I just found out my heart
Thinks we’re in love
I looked in all the mirrors and I look the same
Singing to myself
Playing like it’s a game

Moonlight and starlight
Tickling my toes
Electric tomorrow
In a secret ever glow
Coming with kisses
Coming with true
Coming with something
I want to do

Did I tell you
It comes with kisses
Could you give me one?

I’d never believe
Or even read this book
I fell so far
Come and have a look
Coming with kisses
Coming with true
Coming with something
I want to do

Did I tell you
It comes with kisses
Could you give me one
Did I tell you
It comes with kisses
Could you give me some?

5. ALL SHE WROTE (Shoshkes)

I’ve got five hours to show what I know
Three ways to find my way home
I’ve got six feet of garden to sow
Three more minutes and that’s all she wrote

I’ve got two shoes, the left and the right
I’m playing both ways, the day and the night
I’ve got three girls off to the side
Come into the water let’s go for a ride

Won’t you dance with me
Come on and dance with me
Dance with me
Come on everybody, come on everybody, please

I’ve got four beats with triplets inside
I’ve had sweet dreams since I was a bride
I played show tunes and I learned how to drive
And we keep on rowing to the other side

I saw six cats claiming the prize
And there were two chicks with beautiful eyes
I’m making hot food, it’s ready for you
Come and let me show you what I’m going to do

Won’t you dance with me
Come on and dance with me
Dance with me
Come on everybody, come on everybody, please

I’m making hot cakes we’ll be baking all night
And when floor shakes you know it’s all right
We love the drummer, isn’t he fine
Everybody here is just feeling the time

Won’t you dance with me
Come on and dance with me
Dance with me
Come on everybody, come on everybody,
Won’t you dance with me
Come on and dance with me
Dance with me
Come on everybody, come on everybody, please

6. I WILL NEVER BE YOUR VALENTINE (Shoshkes)

I will never be your valentine
You will not be mine
Still I’m giving you my love
Singing you a song
Giving you my time

I will never be your only one
You will not be mine
Still I watch you in this world
With all your different girls
I really don’t know why

Why did you do it?
Why did you put my heart through it?
Why did you want my love?

I know that you keep a hidden treasure
I know you take special pleasure
Behind the waterfall
And I can’t see it all
It’s just the way you are

I will never be your valentine
You will not be mine
Still I feel you when I love
I hear you in a song
And I’m singing all the time

7. MY FRIEND SUPERMAN (Shoshkes/Dickson)

My friend Superman
Says his wife just doesn’t understand
Why he’s too busy saving the world to hang up his cape
And when he drops it on the floor
After stopping a dangerous meteor
He’d simply like to relax a bit and escape

Tell her: I just want to be a man with you, baby
Throw the superman cape on the floor
I just want to be a man with you, baby
And show you what a man is for

Oh, the cares and responsibilities
Of his super-strength invulnerabilities
Set him apart from the company of other men
After changing the course of rivers
And bending steel with his fingers
He’s needs a little something to soothe his loneliness

Tell her: I just want to be a man with you, baby
Throw the superman cape on the floor
I just want to be a man with you, baby
And show you what a man is for

If I can be the man I am
I can be a superman
A super-duper-duper man
Superman

My friend Superman
Says his wife just doesn’t understand
Why he missed the Sunday dinner with her folks
He was too tired to laugh at the old man’s jokes
And besides, her mother smokes
He says, I can survive a nuclear blast,
But do you know how long those dinners last?

Tell her: I just want to be a man with you, baby
Throw the superman cape on the floor
I just want to be a man with you, baby
And show you what a man is for

If I can be the man I am
I can be a superman
A super-duper-duper man,
Super-super-super man, Superman, Superman!

8. WE’LL TAKE IT FROM THERE (Shoshkes/Daniel)

There are lots of things we can do tonight
The moon is shining like a brand new dime
We could come back early or stay out all night
When you get here darling, you decide
Everything is up in the air
When you get here…we’ll take it from there

We could paint the town sangria-red
Or stay in and go straight to bed
We could go to a restaurant
Or just sit and talk in a parking lot
I’d be happy anywhere
When you get here…we’ll take it from there

Where you are is where I want to be
‘Cause you are who I want to see
Anything we do will be fine with me if I’m with you
When you get here…we’ll take it from there

So come and get me in your car
We’ll drive to the river and look for stars
We could go to your friend’s house
He’s having a party
They’ll be pulling guitars out
I’d be happy anywhere
When you get here…we’ll take it from there
When you get here…we’ll take it from there
When you get here…we’ll take it from there

9. ALWAYS TOMORROW (Shoshkes/Graham)

Tommy’s crying
That’s part of his Sunday afternoon buzz
It’s been a long time since he’s seen Sarah
A long time since he’s seen love

Sugar-coated memories
Watered-down lies
He lost a lot a long time ago
In the backdrop of her eyes

Tommy’s thinking
That’s part of his Monday morning drive
Been a long time since he’s seen Sarah
A long time since he felt alive

Sugar-coated memories
Watered-down lies
He lost a lot a long time ago
In the backdrop of her eyes
Could’ve been a beginning
Felt like the very end
Always tomorrow, always tomorrow

Tuesday afternoon
Looking at what’s left of a blue sky
Dreams went south long ago
Like geese they knew where to fly

Sugar-coated memories
Watered-down lies
He lost a lot a long time ago
In the backdrop of her eyes
Could’ve been a beginning
Felt like the very end
Always tomorrow, always tomorrow
Always tomorrow, always tomorrow

10. HEART FULL OF NOW (Shoshkes/Graham)

I know and I knew and I didn’t want to see
For a moment it was hard to believe
I couldn’t hear and I didn’t want to feel
Then it dawned on me I had something real

Heart full of now, heart full of now
No future no past
And you don’t want to ask
Heart full of now, heart full of now
Doesn’t really matter why or how
When you’re all filled up with a heart full of now

It came from above and travelled down
I felt it inside it didn’t make a sound
It came from below and travelled up
In waves and waves filling me up
Now I’m all full of love

And a heart full of now, heart full of now
No future no past
Don’t want to ask
Heart full of now, heart full of now
Doesn’t really matter why or how
When you’re all filled up with a heart full of now

You’ve got me where you want me and there’s nothing I can do
Some invisible something is pulling me to you
It seems I’m going willingly, it seems there’s nothing stopping me
It seems there’s nothing stopping me

I felt you kissing me
What a sweet surprise coming over me
Because I didn’t ask, you see
And I’m all full of love

And a heart full of now, heart full of now
No future no past
Don’t want to ask
Heart full of now, heart full of now
Doesn’t really matter why or how
When you’re all filled up with a heart full of now
Heart full of now
Heart full of now

11. MR. NOBODY (Shoshkes)

Summer is coming
And you won't be there
In the meadow of flowers
Protected by bears
With drinks in our hands
And stories at dusk
You loved every minute
And treasured it so much

When I go back to look around
If I get startled by a sound
You'd probably say
It's just Mr. Nobody... Mr. Nobody

There he is
I hear him in the breeze
Knocking at the window
Shaking the leaves

When I go back to look around
If I get startled by a sound
You'd probably say
It's just Mr. Nobody... Mr. Nobody

Someone will be there, someone will be there
Someone will be there with me
Somebody will, somebody will
Somebody will, somebody

Probably Nobody... just Mr. Nobody
When I go back to look around
And I get startled by a sound
It's just Mr. Nobody... Mr. Nobody
Probably Nobody... Mr. Nobody... Mr. Nobody

12. WHEN I FALL(Shoshkes/Graham)

You slid into my pocket
Just like a rock for safekeeping
Like a day on the beach
And I carry you with me
Like a ghost you walk through my rooms
Next to me

When I fall
I’ll take it all with me
All with me
When I fall
I’ll take it down with me
Down with me

Like a stone and a shell
They say friction causes change
But the could just be a tale
I know love better than the rose
That you grew so long in the sun
On the western wall

When I fall
I’ll take it all with me
All with me
When I fall
I’ll take it down with me
Down with me

You say it’s over with me
Like a word could make a difference
To my heart or my soul
We both knew one day you’d go
For a time it was good
Like the rock and the rosewood

When I fall
I’ll take it all with me
All with me
When I fall
I’ll take it down with me
Down with me
When I fall
I’ll take it all with me
All with me
