And I'm looking in the mirror all the time Wondering what she don't see in me I've been funny, I've been cool with the lines Ain't that the way love's suppose to be
Tell me Where can I find a woman like that
You know I wish that I had Jessie's girl I wish that I had Jessie's girl I want Jessie's Girl Where can I find a woman like that Like Jessie's girl I wish that I had Jessie's girl I want I want Jessie's girl

How I wish, how I wish you were here. We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year, Running over the same old ground. What have you found? The same old fears. Wish you were here.

Oh, for the sake of momentum I've allowed my fears to get larger than life And it's brought me to my current agendum Whereupon I deny fulfillment has yet to arrive

Heaven's just a rumor she'll dispel. as she walks me through the nicest parts of hell. i still dream of lips i never should have never kissed. well she knows exactly what i can't resist if she says come inside i'll come inside for her. if she says give it all i'll give everything to her. i am justified. i am purified. i am sanctified. inside you

"Into the woods, It's time to go, I hate to leave, I have to, though. Into the woods-- It's time, and so I must begin my journey. Into the woods And through the trees to where I am Expected, ma'am, Into the woods to Grandmother's house!"

She, who always seems so happy in a crowd Whose eyes can be so private and so proud No one's allowed to see them when they cry She may be the love that cannot hope to last May come to me from shadows of the past That I remember till the day I die
She may be the reason I survive The why and wherefor I'm alive The one I'll care for through the rough and ready years Me, I'll take her laughter and her tears And make them all my souvenirs For where she goes I've got to be The meaning of my life is She, she ... ohhhh, she ...

Go on now, go walk out the door Just turn around now 'Coz you're not welcome anymore Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye? Did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die? Oh no not I, I will survive For as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive I've got all my life to live And I've got all my love to give I'll survive I will survive Hey hey

he he, 7 posts of I will survive. I found that mildly amusing Ludosti
I love you, I hate you, I can't get around you. I breathe you, I taste you, I can't live without you. I just can't take anymore of this life of solitude I guess that I'm out the door and that I'm done with you.

She knows the human heart and how to read the stars. Now everything's about to fall apart. I won't be the one who's going to let you down. Maybe you'll get what you want this time around. I won't be the one who's going to let you down. Maybe you'll get what you want this time around.

Stickshifts and safetybelts, Bucket seats have all got to go. When we're driving in the car, It makes my baby seem so far. I need you here with me, Not way over in a bucket seat. I need you to be here with me, Not way over in a bucket seat.

It's hard to explain how a few precious things Seem to follow throughout all our lives After all's said and done I was watching my son Sleeping there with my bear by his side So I tucked him in, I kissed him and as I was going I swear that the old bear whispered "Boy welcome home"
Believe me if you can I've finally come back To the House at Pooh Corner by one ...

With this precious time, and the end being nigh. Saw the path leading back from a private notion. As winter blooms the fall unmasks, spring presides that the summer is mine.
