AS
By
Stevie Wonder
***************
As around the sun the earth knows she’s revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
Just as hate knows love’s the cure
You can rest your mind assure
That I’ll be loving you always
As now can’t reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older every day
Just as all is born is new
Do know what I say is true
That I’ll be loving you always
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky—ALWAYS
Until the ocean covers every mountain high—ALWAYS
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea—ALWAYS
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream
Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day
Just as time knew to move on since the beginning
And the seasons know exactly when to change
Just as kindness knows no shame
Know through all your joy and pain
That I’ll be loving you always
As today I know I’m living but tomorrow
Could make me the past but that I mustn’t fear
For I’ll know deep in my mind
The love of me I’ve left behind Cause I’ll be loving you always
Until the day is night and night becomes the day—ALWAYS
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away—ALWAYS
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4—ALWAYS
Until the day that is the day that are no more
Did you know that you’re loved by somebody?
Until the day the earth starts turning right to left—ALWAYS
Until the earth just for the sun denies itself
I’ll be loving you forever
Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through—ALWAYS
Until the day that you are me and I am you—AL~~~~~~WA~~
~~~~~AA~~~~~~~AA~~~~
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky~~~~~AA~~~~
~~~~AA~~~~~~~AA~~~~~~~~~AA~~~~~~~YS~~ALWAYS
We all know sometimes lifes hates and troubles
Can make you wish you were born in another time and space
But you can bet you life times that and twice its double
That God knew exactly where he wanted you to be placed
so make sure when you say you’re in it but not of it
You’re not helping to make this earth a place sometimes called Hell
Change your words into truths and then change that truth into love
And maybe our children’s grandchildren
And their great-great grandchildren will tell
I’ll be loving you
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky–Loving you
Until the ocean covers every mountain high–Loving you
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea–Loving you
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream–Be loving you
Until the day is night and night becomes the day–Loving you
Until the trees and seas up, up and fly away–Loving you
Until the day that 8x8x8x8 is 4–Loving you
Until the day that is the day that are no more–Loving you
Until the day the earth starts turning right to left–Be loving you
Until the earth just for the sun denies itself–Loving you
Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through–Loving you
Until the day that you are me and I am you–
Now ain’t that loving you
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Ain’t that loving you
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
And I’ve got to say always
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea~~AL~~~WA~~~AYS
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream-Um AL~~WA~~AYS
Until the day is night and night becomes the day-AL~~~~WA~~AYS
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away-AL~~WA~~~AA~~~~~
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4~~~~~AA~~~~~~~AA~~~~~~~AA
Until the day that is the day that are no more-AA~~~~AA~~AA~~~AYS
Until the day the earth starts turning right to left-AL~~~WA~~~A~~~AA
Until the earth just for the sun denies itself-~~AA~~~AA~~~AA~~~AYS
Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through-AL~~~WAYS
Until the day that you are me and I am you
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream
Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more
Until the day the earth starts turning right to left
Until the earth just for the sun denies itself
Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through
Until the day that you are me and I am you
SKELETONS
***************
Skeletons in your closet
Itchin’ to come outside
Messin’ with your conscience
In a way your face can’t hide
Oh things are gettin’ real funky
Down at the old corral
And it’s not the skunks that are stinkin’
It’s the stinkin’ lies you tell
What did your mama tell you about lies
She said it wasn’t polite to tell a white one
What did your daddy tell you about lies
He said one white lie turns into a black one
So, it’s gettin’ ready to blow
It’s gettin’ ready to show
Somebody shot off at the mouth and
We’re getting ready to know
It’s gettin’ ready to drop
It’s gettin’ ready to shock
Somebody done turned up the heater
An’ a it’s gettin’ ready to pop
Crevices in your pantry
Now what do we have in here
Havin’ a day time nightmare
Has always been your biggest fear
Oh things are gettin’ real crucial
Up the old wazoo
Yet you cry, why am I the victim?
When the culprit’s y-o-u
What did your mama tell you about lies
She said it wasn’t polite to tell a white one
What did your daddy tell you about lies
He said one white lie turns into a black one
So, it’s gettin’ ready to blow
It’s gettin’ ready to show
Somebody shot off at the mouth and
We’re gettin’ ready to know
It’s gettin’ ready to drop
It’s gettin’ ready to shock
Somebody done turning the heater
An’ a it’s gettin’ ready to pop
It’s gettin’ ready to seep
You’re gettin’ ready to freak
Somebody done picked up the talk box
And gettin’ ready to speak
It’s gettin’ ready to jive
It’s gettin’ ready to gel
Somebody done gone let the lid off
And it’s gettin’ ready to smell
They’re gettin’ ready to deal
You’re gettin’ ready to ill
Somebody done just dropped the big dime
And they’re gettin’ ready to squeal
It’s gettin’ ready to turn
We’re gettin’ ready to learn
Somebody done fired up the brimstone
And you’re gettin’ ready to burn
It’s gettin’ ready to shake
You’re gettin’ ready to ache
Somebody done snitched to the news crew
And it’s gettin’ ready to break
You’re gettin’ ready to lie
They’re gettin’ ready to spy
Somebody’ s been put on the hot seat
And you’re gettin’ ready to fry

JOY INSIDE MY TEARS
***************
I’ve always come to the conclusion that ‘but’ is the way
Of asking for permission to lay something heavy on ones head
So I have tried to not be the one who ‘ll fall into that line
But what I feel inside I think you should know
And baby that’s you – you – you
Made life’s his*to*ry
Caue you’ve brought some joy inside my tears
And you have done what no one thought could be
You’ve brought some joy inside my tears
I’ve alwys felt that tomorroqw is for those who are too much afraid
To go past yesterday and start for today
I feel that lasting moments are coming fr and few between
So I should tell you of the happiness that you bring
Baby, baby it’s you – you – you
Made life’s his*to*ry
Oh baby, you’ve brought some joy inside my tears
Baby you have done what no one thought could be
You brought some joy inside my tears
You brought some joy inside my tears
You brought some joy inside my tears
You’ve brought some joy inside my tears
Baby, baby you have done what no one thought could be
He – y, you brought some joy inside my tears
Gotta tell you
You – you – you made life’s his*to*ry
You brought some joy inside my tears
– you brought you brought you brought some joy inside my tears
Baby baby baby you have done what no one thought could be
You brought some joy inside my tears
You made it baby you made it baby made it made life’s his*to*ry
– you you you made life’s his*to*ry
You brought some joy inside my tears
You have done what no one thought could be

Tears
CAN’T IMAGINE LOVE WITHOUT YOU
***************
Can you picture mother earth in the palm of your hand?
The entire universe as a tiny grain of sand
And it feels impossible to do
As I can’t imagine love without you
Think of drinking every sea with its salty waters dry
Sprinting ’round the world three times faster than a rocket flies
And the thought of it you can’t pursue
As I can’t imagine love without you
Some thoughts are just no brainers
Not worth an ounce of time
Yet others inconceivable
So they never cross your mind
Travel back though life inside one Atlantis summer’s night
Add up every single star
Since the day there first was light
How and where to start
You’ll have no clue
As I can’t imagine love without you
Yet others inconceivable
So they never cross your mind
Travel back though life inside one Atlantis summer’s night
Add up every single star
Since the day there first was light
How and where to start
You’ll have no clue
And the thought of it you can’t pursue
‘Cause it feels impossible to do
As I can’t imagine love without you
I can’t imagine love without you
ALL I DO
***************
You made my soul a burning fire
You’re getting to be my one desire
You’re getting to be all that matters to me
And let me tell you girl
I hope and pray each day I live
A little more love I’ll have to give
A little more love that’s devoted and true
‘Cause all I do is think about you
All I do
Oh baby
Is think about you
Think about you baby
All I do
m-m-m-m
Is think about you
Baby just suppose I should happen to cross your mind
And by some chance a boy like me you’re really been trying to find
Well let me tell you girl
Think of how exciting it would be
If you should discover you feel like me
If you should discover this dream is for two
We’ll I’m gonna tell you girl
I’d light a candle every day
And pray that you’ll always feel this way
And pray that our love will forever be new
‘Cause all I do is think about you
All I do
Oh baby
Is think about you
I think about you
All I do
Yeah, baby
Is think about you
Gonna tell you girl
I’d light a candle every day
And pray that you’ll always feel this way
And pray that our love will forever be new
I’m gonna tell you girl
If I cannot have you for my own
I’d rather be lonely and all alone
I’d rather keep thinking the way that I do
‘Cause all I do is think about you
All I do
