You never thought I really cared
Thought I was always unaware
When you were right there by my side
But you were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
La da da...
And now that time has taken you
Away from me I clearly see
That I should have told you every time
That you were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
La da da...
Now, now that you have gone
I couldn't lose another one
I'll never find another one
With the same old song
Now, now that you have gone
I couldn't lose another one
I'll never find another one
With the same old song
La da da...

Stanley Waited
02:27
|

Stanley worked hard all of his life
But before he died he turned to his wife and said:
"Shirley, I'm retiring
Shirley, I'm retiring"
But Shirley said "Stan you're only 34,
You've still got to work a little bit more
Before retiring, baby keep dreaming"
So Stanley waited
Oh, Stanley waited
But it turns out that Shirley wasn't right in the head
Stanley was 73 and all but dead
And he was retiring
Stanley was retiring
But Stan was a loving man and cared for his wife
He waited on hand and foot the rest of his life
His time spent retiring
Naturally went to Shirley
So Stanley waited
Oh Stanley, Stanley's still waiting
All for Shirley

Annie Stays Home

Annie stay home
No one needs to know
Why you stay at home
While they paint the town
But you know, you know
They're worse off without you
You know, you know
They're worse off without you
Annie stay home
There's no need to go
Your cookies are warm
And your mother is cold
Plus you know, you know
They're worse off without you
You know, you know
They're worse off without you
Annie stay home
There's no need to go
Annie stay home
There's no place like home
You know, you know, you know

Gwen

Well the business man is on his way
To meet a lovely dinner date
It's such a shame she's not his wife
But he loves to lead a life
Of perfectly placed lies
So he punches out and then check in
To the nearest local inn
But first he's got to clear his tracks
And get the lady off his back
And this is what he has to say:
"Gwen I swear I'm on my way
The boss has got me working late
I know it's past eight, but you're gonna have to wait
Til my work is done, you know it's not fun
To have to bring home the bread
Don't wait up, you know I'm gonna work the clock"
And so the very next night
The businessman has got the mind
To push his marriage to the line
What he tell Gwen this time?
I guess we'll have to wait and see
"Gwen I swear I'm working late
I know I said that yesterday
But this boss of mine has done it and lost her mind"
But Gwen says "Don't worry dear,
You know that junior is here
To keep me company
Don't worry, you know we need the money"
Junior's drawing pictures of a happy family
But there's only two stick figures when there should be three

Stop the Thinking
03:21
|

Sometimes I think I think too much
And nothing ever goes my way
But then I think about the times
When everything is right as rain
Everything is right as rain
When you are here and not away
So come on home and stay with me
And stop the thinking in my brain
Sometimes I know I think too much
And things get harder everyday
But then you show up like the sun
And everything just fades away
Everything is right as rain
When you are here and not away
So come on home and stay with me
And stop the thinking in my brain
Everything is right as rain
When you are here and not away
So come on home and stay with me
And stop the thinking in my brain
I can never feel the pain
When you are lying next to me
So come on home and we'll be free
I'll think of you, you'll think of me
I'll think of you, you'll think of me

In This Lifetime
02:44

There ain't nothin' I can say
There ain't nothin' I can do
It's just gonna get further away from you
And you're runnin' here and there
But never going anywhere
It's time you start doing the things you say cause...
In this lifetime
You just might find
You're not where you wanted to be
When you were young and full of dreams
There's nothin' I can say or do
To take the times away from you
Though times are hard the times will always change and...
In this lifetime
You just might find
You're not where you wanted to be
When you were young and full of dreams
No you can't start giving up
Oh no you can't just give it up
Cause there's no point to giving up
So why don't you just try your luck? Cause...
In this lifetime
You just might find
You're right where you wanted to be
When you were young and full of dreams

I Am on My Own
04:33
|

I've been staying up
I've been sleeping in
I've been waking up
To what I can't live up
I've been dreaming far too long
I am on my own
I've been dreaming far too long
I am on my own
I've been breaking down
I've been breaking down
No sign of letting up
No message from above
I've been dreaming far too long
I am on my own
I've been dreaming far too long
I am on my own
I am on my own
I am on my own
I am on my own
I am on my own

Song for Alex
04:36
|

My mama told me all about it
The words she said, the way she said it
I knew it had to be important
But I didn't wanna hear about it
Do you remember Alexander?
Do you remember baseball cards?
You're never coming back to me
You're never coming back to me
You're never coming back to me
You're never coming back to me
My mama told me all about it
My mama told me all about it
Those words she said, I never doubted
But I didn't wanna hear about it
Do you remember Alexander?
Do you remember basketball?
(Always)
You're never coming back to me
You're never coming back to me
You're never coming back to me
But I'll always keep your memory

So Long / Lucky 'Nuff
05:37

Something like a dream
Sleeps inside of me
Don't know what it is
Must've lost the key
It goes, so long
It's gone
Nothing's going my way so I'm outta here
Nothing's coming along so I'll disappear
I'll go, so long
I'm gone
I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone
Cause I've been lucky enough alright
Yeah I've been lucky enough in life
Yeah I've been lucky enough alright
Cause I've been lucky enough in my life
My life
Nothing's coming along so I'll disappear
Nothing's going my way so I'm outta here
I'll go, so long
I'm gone
I'm gone
I'm gone
I'm gone
