For a while, I think in 1994, it got to where I didn't want to practice.

For A While

Saturday, slept through the morning
Just let the phone ring, now isn't that strange
I watched cartoons, poor ole' coyote
Someone had a worse day than me for a change
And it made me happy
It made me smile
For a while
You always said my friends are all crazy
Baby here lately it seems I fit in
We go out just like the old days
Try to find new ways to go there again
And it makes me happy
It makes me smile
For a while
Everythings just fine
A little ray of sunshine
I didn't feel the fault line running straight through my heart
I didn't think about you
I didn't come unglued
It's a temporary undo but it's a start
It's a start
Late at night I write my own movies
And I am the star, when I close my eyes
Except I look at Julia Roberts
And you're just the poor jerk that I walk on by
And it makes me happy
It makes me smile
For a while
Everythings just fine
A little ray of sunshine
I didn't feel the fault line running straight through my heart
I didn't think about you
I didn't come unglued
It's a temporary undo but it's a start
Little victories, I'll take 'em
Everythings just fine
A little ray of sunshine
I didn't feel the fault line running straight through my heart
I didn't think about you
I didn't come unglued
It's a temporary undo but it's a start
It's a start

Is It Really A Beautiful World?

Heard it on the radio the other day
haven't listened to the words for a while
that song called What a Wonderful World
where everything makes you want to smile.
But is this world such a beautiful place?
that inspired the words to this song
when there's so much misery and hate
with unjust wars that are unfair and wrong.
Innocent children dying of starvation
where famine and disease is rife
and here in our so called civilised society
where feral gangs rule with gun and knife.
Greedy politicians and city bankers
lining their deep pockets with peoples cash
while there enjoying Champagne and Caviar
the rest of us make do with bangers and mash.
Elderly people freezing to death in their homes
because they can't afford to turn up the heat
sitting in an icy flat wrapped up in layers of clothes
desperately struggling to make ends meet.
Thieves breaking into peoples houses
stealing things in the middle of the night
items that were bought through hard work
taken by a burglar now that just isn't right.
So this world really isn't so wonderful
but if it was wouldn't that be great?
No lets just face the real truth here
this world is in a right old state!

I Will Be Away For A While

i will be away for a while
i will be hiding for days

i am gathering some voices
i am reconstructing myself

but i promise, soon i will be back
when every part of me becomes intact.

I must leave you for a while

I must leave you for a while


I must leave you all now
Not for the short term.
Its for the long term.
Its forever.

Im so very sorry
I never wanted this.
But my life wasnt my own.

Loads of stories to tell.
No time left to tell.

I must leave you now
Must do it now
Before I lose my nerve

Stay For A While

Stay for a while
In this life's trial
And then surely
You'll meet smile
And don't mope
Neither lose hope
And then surely
You'll get joy's rope
For life is bend
And full of dents
But there you'll meet
With joy in the end
Only if you learn
How to turn
On the happiness code
So joy can return.

Hold Me For A While

Listless days of feeling insecure
Makes it even harder to endure
There's a way that you can make me smile
Only if you'll hold me for a while

Lots of speeches leave us limp and week
Darling there's no need for us to speak
You can stop my heart from running wild
Only if you'll hold me for a while

(Bridge)
Hold me

Keep me in your heart for a while

Shadows loom from across the skies.
Your tears spill down your cheeks.
For your only girl took her life.
She did do the deed of suicide.
She loves you so much.
But with love and pain weighed up.
Pain was so much grater.
Suicide she thought was a way out.

She has only one message for you.
Keep me in your heart for a while.
Let me go now I'm dead and gone.
Don't waste your life wondering why.
None of that matters now.
Live your life and be happy.

For A While

i stop for a while on this morning walk
to see the ripening rice plants on the field
golden indeed like the blonde hairs
of the american woman
under the gentleness of the sun that has
newly arrived from the split sides of the
nearby mountain

my eyes were caught however
on this maiden with a brown skin
long black hair with an earthen jar
on her left shoulder held by her
small hands

she is just passing by to fetch
some water in the old stone-walled well

If Only For A While

Bill dees/larry henley
For a while I can sing
All the world and everything is touching you
Knowing you are real a miracle beside me
For a while I can breathe
Life is you, and I can cling to fantasies
Seeing me with you keeps my soul alive now
Tomorrow, if I die
At least Ill know why I live
Youre mine, if only for a while
For a while, for a while
You hold my world and you can spin it
For a while, for a while
Life is good because youre in it
Tomorrow, if I die
At least Ill know why I live
Youre mine, you are mine, if only for a while

For A While

Lost in day to day
turned another way
with a laugh, a kind hello
some small talk with those I know
I forget that I'm not over you
for a while
A wave an easy grin
a smile to put them in
with other lives to listen to
and some work I've got to do
I forget that I'm not over you
for a while
Days go buy with no empty feeling
until I remember you're gone
People say to me,you need company
when you have some time to spend
drop around and meet a friend
they forget that I'm not over you
for a while
they forget that I'm not over you
for a while

Summer: Live With Pleasure for a While

Summer has come, summer has come!
So let's just play in our home!
Switch on the fan and accelerate its speed,
B'coz being cool is all you need.

Dinshaw has come, the icy fun,
So let's just enjoy by sharing with some;
Vanilla, strawberry and chocobar,
How Happy and cool we're…!

Mango has come, Watermelon has come!
To enrich the life of rich and slum;
It is the season for coolers and fan
And tour to London and Spain…!

Sweat has come; it's the bad one;
And the hot rays of the shining sun…!
But let's ignore it with a smile,
To live with pleasure for a while…!

Arrested for Driving While Blind

When you're driving down the highway at night
And you're feelin' that wild turkey's bite
Don't give Johnny Walker a ride
Cause Jack Black is right by your side
You might get taken to the jailhouse and find
You've been arrested for driving while blind

Now just the other night with nothin' to do
We broke a case of proof 102
And started itchin' for that wonderful feel
Of rollin' in an automobile
You could say we was out of our mind
And let me tell you we were flyin' while blind

Then they had us up against the wall
Hey it's only blood grain alcohol
And there ain't no cause for alarm
We ain't out to do nobody no harm
How could anyone be so unkind
To arrest a man for drivin' while blind

Reminisce For A While

(sung with raul malo) written by: neil diamond and raul malo
Being here is being where I want to be
I dont suppose youll ever know how much you mean
And for all the heartaches weve been thru
I know that I could not forget my time with you
Id much rather stay
But Ill be on my way
And never again see you smile
For all that its worth
Id move heaven and earth
To just reminisce for a while
There was a time I had the will to carry on
But I let go even though youre what I want
Could have been to keep you warm when I was gone
I never knew that near yous where I belong
Id much rather stay
But Ill be on my way
And never again see you smile
For all that its worth
Id move heaven and earth
To just reminisce for a while
Well just reminisce for a while

Kadyot Lang Kita Dinhi (we Will Only Be Here For A While)

================================================= =========
we will only be here for a while
don't go for the worries

or those humiliations
what more of anger

we have only one destination
the grave

and there it is worse
there is no use

there where the coldness
is worse than the cemented coldness

where the worms
are restless

just like here
where there are more people without ears

===================================== =====================
kadiyot lang kita dinhi
ayaw na anang mga kabalaka

ug mga kahiubos
labi na ang kapungot

usa ra ang atong padulngan
ang lubnganan

ug didto labaw na
nga walay pulos

didto diin labaw pa
sa semento ang kabugnaw

diin lihokan kaayo
ang mga ulod

sama dinhi diin daghan
ang mga wala'y dalunggan

================================ ==========================

Ill Love You For A While

(gerry goffin / carole king)
Yeah, I will love you for a while
Just how long I cannot say
Long before love grows old
Ill be on my way
While theres fire in your eyes
I will hold you to my heart
Oh, but when the fire dies
We will have to part
Love is strange
While now it makes us glad
When our loves no longer new
Itll make us sad, yeah
So, I will love you for a while
More than that I will not tell
When I leave you
You will say that I loved too well
Yeah, love is strange
While now it makes us glad
When our loves no longer new
Itll make us sad, yeah
So, I will love you for a while
More than that I will not tell
And when I leave you
You will say that I loved too well
Say that I loved too well, boy
Say that I loved too well, yeah
Say that I loved too well-ell
Say that I loved too well, child
Say that I loved too well

Let's stop for a while

let's stop for a while and listen to the songs of the birds
wait for the bees that flaps there little wings and feel
the whisper of the wind beneath the golden sky

look up the wondering twilight star of a day they
never stop, as the stream of the creak that flows
into the sea they stay, touch the trembling baby who
face the looks as everybody is happy

open up and receive of what is life, a life that is free,
an eternity of destiny to live, open as you wish for
the purpose of life you take is what you make you to
stay

let us begin to stop for a while, many things has yet!
to be revealed, as round a round we go, we come to
know that life is clear, immortal soul is not a pointless
venture of this moment, for letting us to live is what
makes us to believe that forever the heaven is our
dear home

let our hearts move to receive the truth in our life, that to
live according to the will of God....for life is made than
what we have expected and life have just come to the
place where we are returning home

the time has to come to live this life to serve this
purpose the awaited moment of our life

We're making this as entertainment. But God willing, if this show stays on and people see a woman in that office for a while, I think it will help people become more used to it. It's certainly about time that we had a few female presidents.

I think I would cope like anyone copes with any tragedy. I'm sure I would be very upset for a while and then there would come a point where I would either have to stay in this place of darkness and anger, or I'd have to accept that it happened.

Here We Are In The Middle Of The Rain

here we are in the middle of the rain
and we are all wet
and you sing a song for the rain gods
saying
they're crazy
and for a while, i think, i must be convinced,
i change my mind,
there is this point of finally joining
you, in the singing of the song
and the dancing, perhaps...

Morning Walks

morning walks you spend alone
time squandered
without the sun fully shining

you see a gray horizon
feeling the limitless stretch
out there

shadows of trees
foggy mountains and

this sad bird still sleepy
on a branch of a tree

underneath the grasses wilt
and some unknown footsteps

you stop for a while to think
and then you keep on walking
