Lyrics to KG3's debut CD
"Not So Much"
Not So Much
I’m sure that you’ll call me just as soon as you find my number When I see you out you hide your face and duck under I just want to take you on a trip I know you’re a member of the tragically hip
Whisper promises in my ear help me spend my money When we’re in a crowded room you say don’t call me honey In my dreams you want me just a bit every time I wake up back to make me sick
I can see you really want me, not so much I can see you really need me, not so much And I can see you’ll miss me baby, not so much
All my friends are laughing I wonder what about Yeah we’ve got some problems but I’m sure we’ll work ‘em out I could be the one that drives you mad, you are still the best thing that I almost had
Always pushing me aside when you make the scene They all think they want you, all they want is your soft machine The number that you gave me doesn’t work Heard you laughing at some guy, glad I’m not that jerk
I can see you really want me, not so much I can see you really need me, not so much And I can see you miss me baby, not so much
I can see you really want me I can see you really need me And I can see you miss me baby, not so much Not so much, not so much, not so much
Really Had To Know
Angels all around when you dance the night away Your feet don’t touch the ground now you won’t be afraid I wondered who you were as I watched you play You touched me with your heart and we went away
Really had to know have you started new Where the garden grows that you went to And I really had to know, I really had to know you
Affair of the mind that was all we had And what was left behind always brings you back In the morning light always woke alone And made it through the day the children helped along
And I really had to know have you started new Where the garden grows that you went to And I really had to know, I really had to know you
Angels all around when you dance the night away Your feet don’t touch the ground now you won’t be afraid
Really had to know have you started new Where the garden grows that you went to And I really had to know, I really had to know you
Leave Her Alone
Its been so far on a hard road Paying the way the debt she never owed Don’t push her down with cruel words She just wants in, into your world, into your world Leave her alone, let her go
There’s been so much pain and hurting none so bad as you Are you afraid you can’t live up to what others want you to Keeping her at arms length close enough to keep her down She can’t understand your anger can’t understand why you keep coming around Leave her alone, leave her alone, let her go
Kind words on the telephone cruelty in disguise Telling her what a friend you are but you’re the sadness in her eyes, in her eyes Leave her alone, leave her alone, leave her alone, let her go
Funky Luv
Sweet sweet missy, no more knockin on my door Sweet sweet missy, you hurt me bad before Torn out heart, left cryin on the floor Sweet sweet missy, lovin you is a chore
Don’t know what to do with your funky luv My mind is so messed up from your funky luv
Sweet sweet missy, you knock on too many doors Sweet sweet missy, you make a rich man poor So much love, but you have none for yourself Sweet sweet missy, do you have a heart left
Don’t know what to do with your funky luv My mind is so messed up from your funky luv
Don’t know what to do with your funky luv My mind is so messed up from your funky luv
Some Times
Can you give me what I need Will you keep me in your mind Can I take you where we’ll be In a place they’ll never find
Watch out what you’re saying Watch out what you do
Some times, I can see what’s on your mind Some times, looking for a sign Some times, everything is fine Don’t mind when we break Some times
But I don’t know what I’ve done Maybe its all wrong Will they all leave me alone Had to take you far too long
Don’t know where we’re going Don’t know where you’ve been
Some times, we can put it all behind Some times, seems too hard to try Some times, we all step out of line So high when I fly Some times
Some times only know what’s here today Some times can’t help but feel afraid But now its too hard to see And you’re so clear
Some times I can see what’s on your mind Some times looking for a sign Some times every thing is fine Don’t mind when we break
Dreams of Parades
Dark waters move into my room but they don’t wake me Sea monsters come in the night but they can’t take me Long way from land are we alone in dreams, in dreams of parades
Brass band marches by fills the sky with sounds that move me Clowns and red balloons calliope tunes they always soothe me White horses neigh are we safe in dreams, in dreams, dreams of parades,
(Spoken) Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls of all ages I direct your attention to the center ring You may think you’ve been amazed and astounded You may think you’ve seen everything there is to see But I guarantee you never seen anything like this before
Sixteen years gone by childhoods die is night beside me Flowered wagons roll streets of stone through crowds that hide me Twenty two days drift away in dreams, in dreams Dreams, dreams, dreams of parades
Only When I Sleep
The only time I can be free to see you is in my dreams and you’re mine In the dark and sleepy corner of my mind you wait for me I come alive
Oooh, I hate to wake up I don’t want to face the day Cause when I see that morning light You slip away, slip away
I know it will never be the same for you and me because I lied I hurt you way too deep and only when I sleep You’re love for me can’t be denied
Oooh, I hate to wake up I don’t want to face the day Cause when I see that morning light You slip away, slip away
Oooh, I hate to wake up I don’t want to face the day Cause when I see that morning light You slip away, you slip away, you slip away Slip away
When I Go Away
I won’t try to convince you made up your mind Everything ends everything changes in time The way you look at me the way you hold my hand There’s a change in the mood attitudes I don’t understand
You don’t have to say what you’re thinking your eyes are all that I need Don’t have to make up a reason why you have to leave
Who’ll be there in your days who’ll be there with the night Who’ll be there to tell you it’s alright Who’ll be there in the plans we made you need someone to stay Who’ll be there when I go away
We don’t need a reason to carry this through You’re looking for someone I know he’s looking for you Killing time slowly wasting away Why do you owe a thing why do you think that we have to stay
You don’t have to say that you’re sorry I already know that it’s true Nobody has to get even I know how hard this is for you
Who’ll be there in your days who’ll be there with the night Who’ll be there to tell you it’s alright Who’ll be there in the plans we made you need someone to stay Who’ll be there when I go away
Who’ll be there in the plans we made you need someone to stay Who’ll be there when I go away
The Other Woman
She’ll never be the other woman she’ll never have the time for that Always commands the room’s attention doesn’t seem to matter where she’s at Deep brown eyes take you and they hold you there They tell you that she wants you but then again she doesn’t care
She’s a city woman in a country town Worldly lady in a room of clowns Satin pillow on a bed of nails Angel face she says let’s cut to the chase
On a rolling dance floor a vision for the band she’s watching from the corner of an eye The first kiss is her last kiss and then she says bye bye Don’t ask here where she’s going she won’t say Don’t ask her why she’s leaving it doesn’t matter anyway
She’s a city woman in a country town Worldly lady in a room of clowns Satin pillow on a bed of nails Angel face she says let’s cut to the chase
She’ll never be the other woman she’ll never have to compromise Who’s there to hold her when she shakes brush her hair back when she cries She holds her hand out and reminds you you can’t have it After all you’re only just another one of her bad habits
She’s a city woman in a country town Worldly lady in a room of clowns Satin pillow on a bed of nails Angel face she says let’s cut to the chase
First kiss is her last kiss then she says bye bye
