Everything's Good
Copyright Bod 2014
Something happened that is hard to explain
When I first found you
It felt as if
a fuse had blown in my brain
I became confused
I couldn’t eat or sleep and I didn’t care
Everything was new
You came along and answered
all of my prayers
When I first found you
You gave me hope and strength and now I believe
Every word is true
You said there isn’t
anything in this world
That I cannot do
You opened up my eyes to so many things
That I never knew
My life has turned around and everything’s
good
Now that I found you
There’s an image of myself that I can see when I look in your
eyes
My reflection hasn’t ever looked this good and you’re the
reason why
As my love for you
My life has turned around and everything’s good
Now that I found you
eyes
My reflection hasn’t ever looked this good and you’re the
reason why
I think about you more
and more every day
I’m so into you
I’m a fanatic is what you might say
When it comes to you
I took a leap of faith and I gave my heart
And
my soul to you
My life has turned around and everything’s good
Now that I found you
My life has turned around and everything’s
good
Now that I found you
Everything’s good
Now that I found you
Said The Night
Copyright Bod and Alpert 1979
Tell her she’s yours – you’d better let her know
Slowly, slowly said the
night
If you want her to stay – you’d better tell her so
The timing has to be right
And then, it’s gone again
Said the night, if not now
when
Dishes and cartons lie around the room
Basking, basking in the light
Without her the place you loved will be a tomb
Every memory
in sight
Will croon her favorite tune
Said the night, if not her whom
Questions in the daytime are not so hard to field
They talk of things like truth and God above
But when the heavens
darken and a full moon shines
No one asks of anything but love.
You
know where she’s gone - and who she went with, too
Somewhere, somewhere out of sight
Running away is what you thought she’d do
No
one said it was right or fair – to leave you there
Said the night, if not here where
Questions in the daytime are not so hard
to field
They talk of things like truth and God above
But when the heavens darken and a full moon shines
No one asks of
anything but love.
So, tell her she’s yours – you’d better let her know
Slowly, slowly said the night
If you want her to stay –
you’d better tell her so
The timing has to be right
And then, it’s gone again
Said the night, if not now when
Where Will Love Come From
Copyright Bod and Alpert 1979
I got lost in the shuffling madness
Wondering where to go
Lost
and all alone
And there I was overcome with sadness
Wondering ‘till I’m numb
Where will love come from
Every night while I am sleeping
The
chances are that you’ll come creeping
And for a while I’ll be with you again
The nights go by my hopes are fading
Is there any point
in waiting
Still I know I’ll dream of you again
Where will love come from
Where will love come from
Will I find love today
Is it
even heading my way
Two are better than one
Where will love come from
Every night while I am sleeping
The chances are that you’ll
come creeping
And for a while I’ll be with you again
Can’t you see that I’m so lonely
And you know I want you only
Still I know I’ll dream
of you again
Where will love come from
Where will love come from
Will I find love today
Is it even heading my way
Two are better
than one
Where will love come from
Where will love come from
Where will love come from
Will I find love today
Is it even heading
my way
Two are better than one
Where will love come from
The Wasted Blues
Copyright Bod and Alpert 2011
Time is eternal – it has no end
Love has no boundaries – it’s a feeling that
hard to comprehend
And the truth is absolute – it cannot bend
Those are the rules
I gave you my time – but time ran out for me
I
gave you my love – but you couldn’t understand me
And I told you the truth – but all you ever did was lie to me
I couldn’t feel more
like a fool
I wasted my love, I wasted my time
I wasted my money - and the truth is it’s a crime
I wasted everything on you
I
wasted my time, I wasted my love
I wasted my money - and the truth is all I ever think of
Is that I wasted everything on you
Money
comes – and money goes
Faith is blind – God only knows
They say you reap – you reap what you sow
You get what you deserve
I gave
you my money – but it was worthless, obviously
I put my faith in you – but you didn’t believe in me
Nothing turned out the way I thought
it would be
Life can always throws you a curve
I wasted my love, I wasted my time
I wasted my money - and the truth is it’s
a crime
I wasted everything on you
I wasted my time, I wasted my love
I wasted my money - and the truth is all I ever think
of
Is that I wasted everything on you
