The Girl From
It reall sad the way they said good-bye Or maybe it just hurt so bad she cry He packed his things, walked out the door and drove And she became the from yesterday He took a plane the sea To foreign land She stayed at and tried to understand How someone who had so close could be so far away And she became the girl from She know what's right She doesn't what's wrong She only knows the pain that comes from waiting for so And she doesn't count the That she's cried while away Because she knows deep in her he'll be back someday The light's on in the window; waiting by the phone Talking to a memory that's coming home She dreams of his and the things that he might say But she'll always be the girl from Yeh, she'll always be the girl yesterday
To Be Still
It's another day in paradise As you stumble to bed You'd anything to silence voices ringing in your head You you could find happiness over that green hill You thought you would be But you never to be still We are sheep without a shepherd We don't how to be alone So we 'round this desert And wind up the wrong gods home But the flock out for another And keep answering that bell And one more starry-eyed a violent farewell- Learn to be to be still Now the flowers in your They don't so sweet Maybe you've The heaven at your feet There are so contridictions In all messages we send (We asking) How do I get out of do I fit in? Though the is torn and shaken Even if your is breakin' It's for you to awaken And someday you to be still Learn to be You just on runnin' on runnin'

Please back." What the head cloudy The heart makes clear The were so much brighter In the time when she was But I know there's somewhere Make dark clouds disappear Until that day, I have to I believe, I In a New York can change In a New Minute You can get out of the In a New York can change In a New York
