Biggest Part of Me

Hurry up, get along, be on your way
And make sure that your certain
It's not the wrong day
Punctual people are lost in their plight
To become unprecedented when they arrive
Why am I searching and when will I know?
Are the years that I've waited with nothing to show?
I'm ready to listen I'm ready to win
But I can't wait much longer before we begin
Time waits for no-one
Time waits for no-one no-one,no-one
There's time to conceive in and time to expire
Though the time 'twixt the two tells the tale that transpires so why must we continually disturb the universe
With decisions and revisions which a minute will reverse
So people don't worry 'bout where you've gone wrong cause you know if you hurry it takes twice as long
Relax and forget about what's to be done, it's time to have fun
Time waits for no-one
Time waits for no-one
It really doesn't matter much to me
I know the best times are timeless, you'll see...

I don't know how this whole business started
Of you thinkin' that I have been untrue.
But if you think that we'd be better parted,
It's gonna hurt me, but I'll break away from you.
Well, just give me the sign and I will be gone, yeah.

That's how much I feel, feel for you, baby.
How much I need, well I need your touch.
How much I live, I live for your loving.
That's how much, that's how much,
That's how much, that's how much.

I sleep alone, and late at night I'm dreamin'
Of the togetherness that seems to be leaving me.
I'd give it all and then I'd give some more
If you would only love me like you had before.
Well, take hold of my hand and all will be forgiven, yeah.

That's how much I feel, feel for you, baby.
How much I need, well I need your touch.
How much I live, I live for your loving.
That's how much, that's how much,
That's how much, that's how much.

So you try, try to stay in the middle.
And then you cry, well you cry just a little.
Then you both realize
Just how foolish you've been.
And you try to make amends
But you're better off as friends.
'Cause that's how much, that's how much,
That's how much, that's how much.

How's your life been goin' on?
I've got a wife now. Years we've been goin' strong.
There's just something that I've got to say:
Sometimes when we make love,
I still can see your face.
Ooh, just try to recall
When we were as one, yeah.

That's how much I feel, feel for you, baby.
How much I need, well I need your touch.
How much I live, I live for your loving.
That's how much, that's how much,
That's how much, that's how much.

Someone talks about a road
At the end find life's gold

I went out to get a drink of water
But I saw an ocean far away
I thought of how much beyond awaits me
Foolishly I turned my head the other way

Do you like where you're livin' at?
I'm not happy inside
You could build a golden house
Yeah, but still I'm sad inside

I set out on a long and lonely journey
And traveled through some strange and distant lands
And many times I thought I'd found life's meaning
But it slipped away like water in the sand

Do you like where you're livin' at?
I'm not happy inside
You could build a golden house
And still I'm sad inside

One summer storm
I'm waitin' for the sun
One summer storm
I've waited so long
Waited so long, yeah!

In our lives we've all drank of the water
Heard the ocean callin' out our names
Some will seek and find their life's meaning
And some will turn their heads the other way

My mama don't understand
She's impossible to the core
Now she says that she's gettin' married
He's a friend of a friend of the boy next door

He's got all of the best intentions
Half of a school degree
When he does his song and dancin'
They know they can be happy as the shows on TV

She needs a change, she wants a life
Where she can grow and they can thrive
Some kind of space of her own

A different view, another slant
Another way, another chance
To get on with her life

(Mama she don't understand)
Mama she don't
She don't even know
She don't know
She don't understand

She's gotta know
If she can cut life on her own
But like the man says
"You can never go home again"

You gotta come see the new place
Mom, you're gonna feel right at home
Could you just front that deposit
Mama, we'll pay you back when the welfare check comes

Nothin's gone as expected
No one knows all the trouble we've seen
But we'll pull ourselves together
It's the two of us now, of course, baby makes three

A little luck, an even break
We'll find a way to have our cake
And even eat a piece or two

We'll show you how
We're winnin' now
We'll live it up
Can't keep 'em down

She don't understand me
Don't understand me

So mama, please understand
(Mama, please understand)
If it's possible, we implore
Could we just move in these few things
We won't get in the way and we'll sleep on the floor

'cause, times have been getting tougher
(Times have been getting tough)
It's an unfriendly world outside
They say things will pick up by summer
Can we borrow the car, will you watch little Clyde
Thanks a lot

Mama don't understand
Mama don't understand me

Mama don't understand
Mama don't understand me
(Mama don't understand me)
(Mama don't understand me, no)

Mama don't understand
She don't understand me
(Mama don't understand me)
(Mama, she don't understand me, yeah)

Oh baby
Say, now, you
You talk about The things I do
But baby, I yeah,
I'll try and explain the reasons why

'Cause I've been thinkin' 'bout the things
That we said late last night,
When every word I said
Just didn't come out right,
And you were so afraid
That I'd found someone new
But darlin', well, there's no need
For what we're goin' through

Because you and I've been in love too long
To worry 'bout tomorrow
Here's a place where we both belong
I know you're the only woman that I'm dreamin' of
You're the only woman that I really love

Baby, see what a foolish heart has done for me
Darlin', why yeah would you break my heart and make me cry?
Well now, you can't go back and change the way things are,
And all this foolish talk won't take us very far
And so I hope you're listening' 'cause I'm tellin' you
About the, the way I feel and what I'm goin' through

Because you and I've been in love too long
To worry 'bout tomorrow
Here's a place where we both belong
I know you're the only woman that I'm dreamin' of
You're the only woman that I really love

When the pain of love surrounds you
And the world may be unkind
I'll put my lovin' arms around you
Take you far from this place and time

Because you and I've been in love too long
To worry 'bout tomorrow
Here's a place where we both belong
I know you're the only woman that I'm dreamin' of
You're the only woman that I really love

You're the only woman You're the only woman

I know you're the only woman
You're the only woman
Well now you're the only woman
You're the only woman
