No Reason To Cry

By dick simms and marcy levy

Last night as i stepped into the stage lights,
I heard the people cry when they saw my face.
There's nothing like our hearts beating in time.
The crowd may inspire, but you give me my strength.

Oh, hungry, i'm hungry, i'm hungry for your sweet smile.
Lonely, i'm lonely, i'm lonely, i need to hold you for a while.

I've been slipping into desperation;
You're the only salvation that the lord designed.
Your absence is controlling my defenses.
My life is senseless without you by my side.

Chorus

Chorus

Loose ladies on the road will drive you crazy.
Every "no" becomes a "maybe", it never takes too long.
Missing you, i don't know what i'm gonna do.
You don't know what i'm going through; everything seems wrong.

Chorus

By eric clapton

Come with me, come with me,
To the carnival, to the carnival.

You will see, you will see,
What you want to see, exactly what you want to be,
At the carnival, at the carnival, at the carnival.

Come with me, come with me,
To the carnival, to the carnival,
To the carnival, to the carnival, to the carnival.

Come with me, come with me.
Come with me, come with me.

I was a child born so free;
It seems that time has put age on me.
And when i grow old, will i once again find
All of those sweet, innocent times?

I was a child born without fear;
It seems that time has placed me here.
With no freedom to laugh, there's more reason to cry.
I really miss those innocent times.

I used to feel joy in my soul,
But now my sorrow has taken control.
As i look around i pray, lord be kind;
Just one more taste of those innocent times.

As i look around i pray, lord be kind;
Just one more taste of those innocent times,
Just one more taste of those innocent times.

I don't want to be the one to say i'm sorry.
I don't want to be the one to take the blame.
I don't want to be the one to throw it over.
I don't want to be the one to feel ashamed.

I don't want to be the one who thinks of nothing.
I don't want to be the one to tell you what you have seen.
After all this time, well i thought that you were mine.
I just want to be the one who would share this dream.

All our past times should be forgotten.
All our past times should be erased.
I don't care how much it costs;
'cause i don't count the loss
As long as i can see your face again.

You don't have to tell me when you're leaving,
If it's half past one, if it's maybe four.
It makes no difference where you think you're going,
But please remember not to slam the door.

Chorus

Yes, i don't care how much it costs;
You know i don't count the loss
As long as i can see your face again.

They picked me up, put me in the county jail.
They picked me up, put me in the county jail.
They wouldn't let my woman come and post my bail.

Now i'm in prison, i've almost done my time.
Now i'm in prison, i've almost done my time.
They gave me six months, i had to work out nine.

I know my baby, she's gonna jump and shout.
I know my baby, she's gonna jump and shout.
When the train comes in and i come walking out.

Take these stripes from around me, chains from around my legs.
Take these stripes from around me, chains from around my legs.
The stripes don't hurt me; the chains could kill me dead.
