Randy Newman - Feels Like Home
Something in your eyes
Makes me want to lose myself
Makes me want to lose myself
In your heart
Something in your voice
Makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling will last
The rest of my life
If you knew
How lonely my life has been
And how low I�ve felt for so long
If you knew
I wanted someone to come along
And change my world
The way you've done
It feels like home
Feels like home to me
Feels like I�m on my way back
Where I come from
Feels like home
Feels like home to me
Feels like I�m on my way back
Where I�m from
With your embrace
Down a long dark street
And a sigh of wind in the night
It's alright
Cause I have you here with me
And I can almost see
The dark feels light
If you knew
How much this moment means to me
And how long I�ve waited for your touch
If you knew
I wanted someone to come along
I never thought I�d love anyone
So much
Feels like home
Feels like home to me
Feels like I�m on my way to where I come from
Feels like home to me
Feels like home to me
Feels like I�m on my way back to where I belong
Feels like I�m on my way back to where I belong
Randy Newman - Living Without You
The milk truck hauls the sun up
And the paper hits the door
The subway shakes my floor
And I think about you
Time to face the dawning gray
Of another lonely day
Baby, it's so hard
Living without you
It's so hard
Baby, it's so hard
Baby, it's so hard
Living without you
Ev'ry one's got something
And they're out tryin' to get some more
They got something to get up for
Well I ain't about to
Nothin's gonna happen
Nothin's gonna change
Baby, it's so hard
Living without you
It's so hard
Baby, it's so hard
Baby, it's so hard
Living without you
The milk truck hauls the sun up
And the paper hits the door
The subway shakes my floor
And I think about you
Time to face the dawning gray
Of another lonely day
Baby, it's so hard
Living without you
It's so hard
Baby, it's so hard
Baby, it's so hard
Living without you
Ev'ry one's got something
And they're out tryin' to get some more
They got something to get up for
Well I ain't about to
Nothin's gonna happen
Nothin's gonna change
Baby, it's so hard
Living without you
It's so hard
Baby, it's so hard
Baby, it's so hard
Living without you
The Moon's a Harsh Mistress - Jimmy Webb
See her how she flies
Golden sails across the sky
Close enough to touch
But careful if you try
Though she looks as warm as gold
The moon's a harsh mistress
The moon can be so cold
Once the sun did shine
Lord, it felt so fine
The moon a phantom rose
Through the mountains and the pines
And then the darkness fell
And the moon's a harsh mistress
It's so hard to love her well
I fell out of her eyes
I fell out of her heart
I fell down on my face
Yes, I did, and I -- I tripped and I missed my star
God, I fell and I fell alone, I fell alone
And the moon's a harsh mistress
And the sky is made of stone
The moon's a harsh mistress
She's hard to call your own.
Randy Newman - Guilty
Yes, baby, I been drinkin'
And I shouldn't come by I know
But I found myself in trouble
And I had nowhere else to go
Got some whisky from the barman
Got some cocaine from a friend
I just had to keep on movin'
Til I was back in your arms again
Guilty, baby I'm guilty
And I'll be guilty the rest of my life
How come I never do what I'm supposed to do
How come nothin' that I try to do ever turns out right?
You know, you know how it is with me baby
You know, I just can't stand myself
And it takes a whole lot of medicine
For me to pretend that I'm somebody else
