New Masters

Baby, you're cool
And even though you've never been to school
I know you're fine
But then you change your mind
Then you start on driftin'
And fall on behind

You've been my girl
You've been mine
All of the time

A bad night
Its gonna be
A bad night
I guarantee
Tonight i'll have
A bad night
I know i shall

Ah, 'cause you left me waiting in the corner
And i know you're never gonna come back for me
And though you said you loved me
And said you needed all of my love
A bad, bad, bad, bad, bad night
Its gonna be

A bad night
It's gonna be
A bad night
I guarantee
Tonight i'll have
A bad night
I know i shall

Maybe if the weather was just a little better
It might not have happened that way
But the situation was gettin' pretty bad, bad
A bad bad bad bad bad night it's gonna be

A bad night
It's gonna be
A bad night
I guarantee
Tonight i'll have
A bad night
I know i shall
I know i shall

I work in the mornin', i work in the night
The men on the block, they just laugh at me
I work in the mornin', i work in the night
The men on the block, they just laugh at me

But when they're wiping their silver spoons
Palming the men for some bread,
I'll be laughing
Way, way out of my head!

When my little kitty gets out,
There's gonna be a party, a party no doubt
When my little kitty gets out
There's gonna be a party

And if my mind isn't coming so fast
The men on the block say i'm on the brink
And if my mind isn't coming so fast
And i aint so dumb as some people think

'cause when they're wiping their silver spoons
Palming the men for some bread
I'll be laughing, way way out of my head

Slowly let me tell you a story of a tree
An apple tree,

Once in a summertime garden lived a little apple tree
And the man who owned it wanted it to be picked
So he sent forth to hire me

Well, i've travelled the mountains, and i've travelled the sea
But a never in my travelling days
Have i ever seen a little apple smile at me!

Laugh, oh laugh a little apple
Autumn is waitin', you'd better be careful,
For it will bring you down
If it ever sees you wearing a frown

So laugh, laugh a little apple

Well all the apples were hidin'
Frightened that they might be plucked
And everytime that somebody passed
All except that one little apple ducked

Well, i've travelled the mountains, and i've travelled the sea
But a never in my travelling days
Have i ever seen a little apple smile at me!

Laugh, oh laugh a little apple
Autumn is waitin', you'd better be careful,
For it will bring you down
If it ever sees you wearing a frown

So laugh, laugh a little apple

The view from the top can be oh so very lonely
And you can be missing such a lot that could be yours

Why can't i stop forgetting myself?
Why am i always trying to be like somebody else
Why can't i love you?
Why bother flying high above you
I know where you are

The view from the top can be oh so very lonely
And you can be missin' such a lot that could be yours

And who's going to miss me?
There'll only be myself to blame
You know i'd love to hold you tight
And love you all the night
But i don't even know ...my name

La la la da la ....

Why can't i stop forgetting myself?
Why am i always trying to be like somebody else?
Why can't i love you?
Why bother flying high above you
I know where you are

The view from the top can be oh so very lonely
And you can be missin' such a lot that could be yours

You left me wearing nothing but a shell
You left me wearing nothing but a shell
This feeling you've left me,
Is the image of hell

I thought that you loved me
Ah, but then i never could tell
I thought that you loved me
But then i never could tell
This feeling you left me
Is the image of hell

If you loved me like you said that you did
Oh, then darling you couldn't have done the things
That you did
You walk by my door, but you don't ring my bell
You walk by my door, but you don't ring my bell
This feeling you've left me, is the image of hell

There is a wind, my billy, and it's awful strong
Come for you, and anyone who's helped you along.

But i want to live, live, live and let the stars shine bright
Yes, i want to live, live, live and let it on alright

And when that bird sings from over that silver wall
I don't want to fight it, billy, 'cause i want to go

There's a northern wind, billy, blowin' up a southern change
And a northern wind really makin' me feel kinda strange
There's a northern wind, billy, blowin' up a southern change
And a northern wind really makin' me feel kinda strange

And with this gun goes everything i want to say
Not for you, but for anyone who takes it away
Let it fill his life, life, life until there's nothing left
Let it kill his wife, wife, wife until he goes to bed

And when that bird sings from over that silver wall
I don't want to fight it, billy, 'cause i want to go

There's a northern wind, billy, blowin' up a southern change
And a northern wind really makin' me feel kinda strange
There's a northern wind, billy, blowin' up a southern change
And a northern wind really makin' me feel kinda strange

I'm so sleepy, yeah
I'm so sleepy, yeah
I could lay my head on a piece of lead
And imagine it was a springy bed
'cause i'm sleepy, sleepy

Soon i'm gonna slip away
In the night i feel it creeping, creeping, creeping

I'm so sleepy yeah
I'm so sleepy yeah
I could lay my head on a piece of lead
And imagine it was a springy bed
'cause i'm sleepy, sleepy

I can't keep my mind away from my dreams,
I hear them calling, calling, calling
Soon i'm gonna slip away
Soon i'm gonna slip away
Soon i'm gonna slip away
In the night i'm gonna slip away
I wont fight it, i'll just ride it

I'm so sleepy yeah
I'm so sleepy yeah
I could lay my head on a piece of lead
And imagine it was a springy bed
'cause i'm sleepy, sleepy
Yeah

I know i think a lot
But somehow it just doesn't help
It only makes it worse

The more i think
The more i know
The more it hurts

With only solitude to meet me like a friend
Oh, where are you?
Where are you ? where are you?

Maybe she sits alone
Beyond the storm
Across the raging torrent of the sea
She knows i want her
And she knows i'll always be...
How can i live without the love i cannot see
Oh where are you?
Where are you ?
Where are you?

Oooooooohhhh

I know there's someone there
I hear her breathe
Behind the silence of the dark
But i know that i wont see
'til we open up our eyes together
She'll look at me
What a moment that moment will be!

And she looks so light
I could fly her through the night

Oooh

I know i think a lot
But somehow it just doesn't help
It only goes to show
That what you never miss
You never know
But i have loved you from the moment that we knew
Oh, i love you
I love you
But where are you?

I would have given you all of my heart
But there's someone who's torn it apart
And she's taking almost all that i've got
But if you want, i'll try to love again
Baby i'll try to love again but i know

The first cut is the deepest, baby i know
The first cut is the deepest
'cause when it comes to being lucky she's cursed
When it comes to lovin' me she's worse
But when it comes to being loved she's first
That's how i know

The first cut is the deepest, baby i know
The first cut is the deepest

I still want you by my side
Just to help me dry the tears that i've cried
Cause i'm sure gonna give you a try
And if you want, i'll try to love again
But baby, i'll try to love again, but i know

The first cut is the deepest, baby i know
The first cut is the deepest

'cause when it comes to being lucky she's cursed
When it comes to lovin' me she's worse
But when it comes to being loved she's first
That's how i know

The first cut is the deepest, baby i know
The first cut is the deepest
