© Ian Keith 2012 A Man Without Love I may head south along the highway make a stop at every bar I’ll drink whatever I please until I’m down on my knees Then catch a ride in a rich girl’s car No one to call me home, my lady’s gone and I’m on my own No one to call me home, since she’s gone I’ve been on my own She said that things weren’t getting easy but then again things never were I worked my body and soul I breathed that dust from that coal To buy her things, no diamond rings No one to call me home, my lady’s gone and I’m on my own No one to call me home, since she’s gone I’ve been on my own I’ve got the blues and I’m loosing control of the things that I know I’ve got the look of a man without love and it’s starting to show Won’t you buy me just one drink and I’ll move out your way I don’t want to make you think that I’m planning to stay Don’t you know I’ve got the look, the look of a man, a man without love Don’t you know I’ve got the look, the look of a man, a man without love Don’t you know I’ve got the look, the look of a man, a man without love All I seem to buy are smokes and whiskey, policemen round the clock all know my name I bought her lipstick and shoes she gave me bad luck and blues But whose to blame lets call it loves exchange No one to call me home, my lady’s gone and I’m on my own No one to call me home, since she’s gone I’ve been on my own I’ve got the blues and I’m loosing control of the things that I know I’ve got the look of a man without love and it’s starting to show Won’t you buy me just one drink and I’ll move out your way I don’t want to make you think that I’m planning to stay Don’t you know I’ve got the look, the look of a man, a man without love Don’t you know I’ve got the look, the look of a man, a man without love Don’t you know I’ve got the look, the look of a man, a man without love © Ian Keith 2012 All rights reserved.

© Ian Keith 2012 Walking With Love She walks down the avenue she’s ready tonight Turns along main street she’s looking so right Stops at a window and fixes her dress She don’t mind that the wind blows she’s looking her best She’s not listening for no smooth conversation She’s not looking for that cool presentation Walking with love She’s my girl and she’s Walking with love Walking with love She’s my girl and she’s Walking with love She reaches the corner and crosses the road She’s got motion she’s rarer than gold And the thought of love quickens her step To my waiting arms and heaven above Created such a beauty to see don’t you know I feel so Proud when she’s walking with me Walking with love She’s my girl and she’s Walking with love Walking with love She’s my girl and she’s Walking with love And the thought of love quickens her step To my waiting arms and heaven above Created such a beauty to see don’t you know I feel so Proud when she’s walking with me Walking with love She’s my girl and she’s Walking with love Walking with love She’s my girl and she’s Walking with love © Ian Keith 2012 All rights reserved.

© Ian Keith 2012 Will You Dance In The Morning Should I close my eyes and let the dream unfold Give way through night to all the fantasies I hold You were once to me the queen within my heart You were once to me a dancer on my hand Will you dance in the morning; in the morning will you dance Will you dance in the morning; in the morning will you dance Will you dance in the morning; in the morning will you dance for me by day Should I dim the light and gently fall to sleep And give up in the night all the secrets that I keep You were once to me the keeper of my love You were once to me a singer in a cage Will you sing in the morning; in the morning will you sing Will you sing in the morning; in the morning will you sing Will you sing in the morning; in the morning will you sing for me by day Will you dance in the morning; in the morning will you dance Will you dance in the morning; in the morning will you dance Will you dance in the morning; in the morning will you dance for me by day © Ian Keith 2012 All rights reserved.

© Ian Keith 2012 Losing Everything Everyday you say I’m moving away Gone are the days when I was stuck on your heart But you’ve been running away, running away from the start It’s clearly defined for you the problem is me I don’t see what you feel and you don’t feel what I see But as I may have implied you kept your feelings inside from the start And through time it seems the only thing we’ve found Is an emotional intolerance for crying out loud We’re losing everything, we’re losing everything We’re losing everything that we had Lovers who wed we’ve gone to strangers in bed Words that we said dissolved through salient years Till death do us part still it pertains through the tears In friendship and love I still remain here for you Open your eyes and see my love shining through Stop running away, running away from my heart ‘cause through time it seems the only thing we’ve found Is an emotional intolerance for crying out loud We’re losing everything, we’re losing everything We’re losing everything that we had And through time it seems the only thing we’ve found Is an emotional intolerance for crying out loud We’re losing everything, we’re losing everything We’re losing everything that we had © Ian Keith 2012 All rights reserved.

© Ian Keith 2012 Only One I’m Dreaming Of You’re that someone in the night that comforts me Someone in the day that sets me free And all I want to say to you my love is You’re the only one I’m dreaming of, you’re the only one I’m dreaming of You’re the only one I’m dreaming of Emotions rise when I look in your eyes And Angels come to look from Heavens doorway Songs of love will play forever more And you and I will share a thousand stories You’re that someone in the night that comforts me Someone in the day that sets me free And all I want to say to you my love is You’re the only one I’m dreaming of, you’re the only one I’m dreaming of You’re the only one I’m dreaming of Hand in hand we’ll share a thousand journeys Heart to heart I know we’ll live as one Kings and Queens will form a queue to curtsy At your feet my love before this dance is done You’re that someone in the night that comforts me Someone in the day that sets me free And all I want to say to you my love is You’re the only one I’m dreaming of, you’re the only one I’m dreaming of You’re the only one I’m dreaming of © Ian Keith 2012 All rights reserved.

© Ian Keith 2012 Another Rainy Day The rain that fell all night and day The rain that came to wash away decay And in their hearts and minds did they ever find The strength to make the rain go away The strength to make the rain go away Will it take another rainy day? Will it take another rainy day? Will it take another rainy day? Will it take another rainy day? Let it rain, let it rain Let it rain, let it rain The web of words a web of lies they hide behind It’s clear to see it’s a poor disguise but the people are blind A masquerade of foolish pride but don’t you feel it deep inside We’ve got to stop the rain from falling again We’ve got to stop the rain from falling again Will it take another rainy day? Will it take another rainy day? Will it take another rainy day? Will it take another rainy day? Will it take another rainy day? Will it take another rainy day? Will it take another rainy day? Will it take another rainy day? © Ian Keith 2012 All rights reserved.

© Ian Keith 2012 Heaven Take My Heart Heaven take my heart and soul across the ocean Heaven take my heart to the moon Let me be a child on a sea of new emotion When any words I say won’t be too soon Let me ride in the wind, let me drink from the rain Help me start to begin, to build my life back up again Heaven take my love to the one that I am missing Heaven take my love to her heart Keep her safe from harm from the one that she is kissing Release from my pain now we’re apart Let me ride in the wind, let me drink from the rain Help me start to begin, to build my life back up again Help me to find a way to make things clear Help me to find my way Help me to find a way to make things clear Help me to find my way Heaven take my heart Heaven take my fears away so I can love another Heaven keep my dreams alive inside Give me strength to trust again so I can rediscover The truth of life and love and live with pride Let me ride in the wind, let me drink from the rain Help me start to begin, to build my life back up again Help me to find a way to make things clear Help me to find my way Help me to find a way to make things clear Help me to find my way Heaven take my heart Heaven take my heart and soul across the ocean Heaven take my heart to the moon Let me be a child on a sea of new emotion When any words I say won’t be too soon Let me ride in the wind, let me drink from the rain Help me start to begin, to build my life back up again CHORUS: © Ian Keith 2012 All rights reserved.

Lonely now 04:34
© Ian Keith 2012 Lonely Now You were the lonely one not me You didn’t want my love but you needed my company You didn’t love, never loved me Don’t you think it’s kind of funny how our roles have changed? ‘cause now that loneliness is on the other hand I know how hard it is when you’ve got to understand That love can let you down just like your closest friend You’ve got to find an empty heart if you don’t want love to end I’m lonely now without you by my side Don’t seem right to me this social suicide I’m lonely now it cannot be denied ‘cause I still love you and I cannot seem to hide I am lonely now You were the only one like me And I can’t seem to get away because I’m tied to your memory You are happy now but can’t you see That I am on my own when I need your company ‘cause now that loneliness is on the other hand I know how hard it is when you’ve got to understand That love can let you down just like your closest friend You’ve got to find an empty heart if you don’t want love to end I’m lonely now without you by my side Don’t seem right to me this social suicide I’m lonely now it cannot be denied ‘cause I still love you and I cannot seem to hide I am lonely now © Ian Keith 2012 All rights reserved.

© Ian Keith 2012 You’re Holding On You’re holding on ‘till another day is gone There may not be another fight It won’t be long ‘till another day is gone He won’t be home again tonight Don’t bother me if it don’t bother you I don’t know the kind of things that you do I can go building bridges with some cold hearted bithches But that aint the kind of thing that I do You look at me and I look at you and I want for things to be alright But you wont learn your lesson with a man that’s messin’ And he wont be home again tonight You’re holding on ‘till another day is gone There may not be another fight It won’t be long ‘till another day is gone He won’t be home again tonight Don’t come to me if I can’t go to you ‘cause that aint the kind of fool I can be I’m a fool for loving and it don’t mean nothing if it It aint the kind of fool that you need Don’t cry for me and I won’t cry for you ‘cause I don’t think you feel the things that I do You’ve been building bridges leaving me in the ditches And that aint the kind of thing you should do You’re holding on ‘till another day is gone There may not be another fight It won’t be long ‘till another day is gone He won’t be home again tonight Don’t bother me if it don’t bother you I don’t know the kind of things that you do You’ve been building bridges leaving me in the ditches And that aint the kind of thing you should do CHORUS: © Ian Keith 2012 All rights reserved.

Music man 05:02
© Ian Keith 2012 Music Man I look in the mirror and I’ll tell you what I see I see a man of sorrow staring back at me I’ve heard him play and I know he plays real good But there’s something wrong here and it’s not quite understood There are people who are playing with my life They say they’re the men of music hand the boy a knife They don’t believe in music no They don’t believe in music People don’t you care about the music man People don’t you know I’m the music man I’m not distracted and I won’t be put down I’m a man of patience I guess I’ll hang around I see a band playing on the TV I close my eyes and imagine it was me singing Give me love, give me love my baby You’re all I need to help me through my life I’m a man of music yeh I’m a man of music People don’t you care about the music man People don’t you know I’m the music man People don’t you care about the music man People don’t you know I’m the music man There’s beauty queens in limousines who are singers over night Drum machines with tambourines the beat is out of sight Programme yourself a melody it’s all in the modern way but there’s There’s no room for a music man today People don’t you care about the music man People don’t you know I’m the music man People don’t you care about the music man People don’t you know I’m the music man © Ian Keith 2012 All rights reserved.

© Ian Keith 2012 Looking Ahead Looking ahead for something looking ahead to see the future unfold Dreaming about that someone looking ahead to see the future unfold ‘cause she don’t wanna be lonely and she don’t wanna keep holding on Sitting on her own by the telephone again Mothers in the back room she’s calling out her name Daughter, daughter don’t you know that love will make you pay Why don’t you stay Mother I can hear you and it’s driving me insane Keep playing on your weakness but it’s me that feels enchained Mother, mother don’t you think I’d like someone to be There just for me Looking ahead for something looking ahead to see the future unfold Dreaming about that someone looking ahead to see the future unfold ‘cause she don’t wanna be lonely and she don’t wanna keep holding on As a girl she was a princess as a woman she’s a slave The TV sells her wishes her religion keeps her brave Moment to moment tethered by her mothers skill to start Her guilty heart Looking ahead for something looking ahead to see the future unfold Dreaming about that someone looking ahead to see the future unfold ‘cause she don’t wanna be lonely and she don’t wanna keep holding on For someone to love her, for someone to hold her Keep on, keep on, keep on Keep on looking ahead Looking ahead for something looking ahead to see the future unfold Dreaming about that someone looking ahead to see the future unfold ‘cause she don’t wanna be lonely and she don’t wanna keep holding on © Ian Keith 2012 All rights reserved.

© Ian Keith 2012 Truth (for me) Here I am like a Stone Age man In the middle of a world I don’t understand I keep looking at the TV it’s trying to deceive me Trying to make me think that I’m living like a free man But I know that isn’t so Perhaps I heard it on the radio When the songs were playing only When the songs were playing only When the songs were playing only for me For me, for me Sometimes I hide in a place deep inside Yes that’s my sanctum my soul my love my pride Living from the outside in you know I’m feeling like I’m inside out And the preacher says you know it’s gonna begin you know were gonna stop living in sin But I know that isn’t so Perhaps I heard it on the radio When the songs were playing only When the songs were playing only When the songs were playing only for me For me, for me Be still tonight don’t shine a light Let the darkness cover you while the stars are taking flight Those words you say please take them away Don’t you say that you’re leaving me because you’ve had enough of mediocrity ‘Cause I know that isn’t so Perhaps I heard it on the radio When the songs were playing only When the songs were playing only When the songs were playing only for me For me, for me © Ian Keith 2012 All rights reserved.
