Mercy
On Me
©1998 Mary Godfrey
Verse:
Brother, we can’t keep fighting
this way
We’ve been vieing for power way
too long
We’ve said too many words, made
too many wounds
More than I can consume
Chorus:
We live with this worn out busted
love
We stay together in favor of
$$ , people , places and things
, it’s all meaningless
When you don’t have the love you
need
Mercy on me , mercy
Verse:
I shiver every time that we meet
You’re like winter , you’re so cold
when you speak
You have your own agenda , and so
do I have mine
Though I have , I’ve always tried
to rectify , why
repeat chorus
Pre-solo:
Love has dwindled down to nothing
Bridge:
This indifference makes me blue
This lack of love i get from you
Has stained my heart , untainted
heart
Have mercy , mercy on me
repeat chorus
Post chorus:
Forsaken love is the worst kind
of love
Forsaken love is the worst kind
of love
Forsaken love is the worst kind
of love
Pray

Verse:
Way down in the city / lives a soul-searchin
man
He tapes up reminders / to be happy
not sad
He talks to his brothers / he talks
to his friends
He speaks of the bible / he says
what he can
Chorus:
He says...... Pray .... we’ve lived
another day ..... pray
Pray..... we’ve lived another day....
pray to God
Verse:
He’s felt the pain of many / he’s
felt the pain of few
He knows it doesn’t matter what
he’s gonna do
He knows he has no power / ‘cause
it’s out of his hands
The only thing that he can do /
is talk to the man
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
He has his moments like the rest
of us do
Those evil thoughts / they tend
to slip through
Then he lights the incense / burns
the candles
Says another prayer
He prays to God to get him through
dispair
Repeat Chorus
Where
The Sun Don't Shine

D. Laurino, M.Godfrey
Verse:
Why did you
kiss me on that stormy night
Why did you
let me believe that the heaven in your eyes
Was with-
in my reach
Post Verse:
I should’ve
known that it wasn’t right I
Should’ve
picked up a sign that the
Sweetness
on your lips was a rose / off the vine
Where the
sun don’t shine
Verse:
My friends
told me you better beware
Cause love
Draws the line and I
Couldn't hear
a word they’d say cuz love is blind
Chorus:
I keep
towing the line
Where the
sun don’t shine
Bridge:
I couldn't
stay if you’d catch me falling on my knees
I’m tired
of waiting and watching to see
What’s next
(what’s next) to get
You will see
tommorrow as reflections of today
Chorus:
The schemes
you lay / the way you betray
I’ve resigned
myself to fate
Daggers
tear my heart in two
Where the
sun don’t shine / Where the sun don’t shine
You will never
know how to fuel
My energy
I can’t
stand another day
Where the
sun don’t shine Where the sun don’t shine
Barefoot

Verse:
Give me ... Air to breathe
Closed in ... tight spaces
make me nervous
Slowly ... I pull away ...
The train is leaving
Only ... Seasons stay the same
Pre Chorus:
I can hear the wind
... It’s blowin' hard
I can see the trees .... Barely
with new leaves
Chorus:
Barefoot in the Springtime
Carefree in the Summer
Summer’s comin’... Days are passing
...
Time is winding Down on me and ...
you
I just wanna be ...
Barefoot in the Spring ...
Verse:
Don’t need fire ... No
flame is burning
Can’t win ...There’s
another heart I’m
yearn’n for... Only
when you least expect it
Love comes running ... Surely
then you know it’s fate
Pre Chorus:
In Paris lovers dance in sweet romance
In Venice lovers sing the sound
of Spring
Chorus:
Barefoot in the Springtime
Carefree in the Summer
Summer’s comin’ Days are passing
Time is winding Down on me
and ... you
I just wanna be.. Barefoot
in the
Spring ...
SOLO
EndChorus:
I just wanna be ... Barefoot
in the Spring ...
I just wanna be ... Barefoot
in the Spring ...
Barefoot in the Spring ...
Barefoot in the Spring ... |
