Don't You Know

Don't you know that you're breaking my heart when you depart?
You don't know that you're not coming back - there are no bags to be packed.
But it's okay, I'll see you one day.
You'll never be far away.
You'll come right in, you can play with your tin foil.
Let the games begin!
Cause I love you and the things you do.
Stay for an extra day or two.
You love me and it's easy to see,
When you kiss so tenderly.
Don't you know how your big brown eyes make me feel inside?
You don't know so you stare for a while. Oh, how you make me smile.
You poke around to see what you have found,
just to knock it to the ground.
And when I flush I hear you come and rush,
I think I got a crush!
Cause I love you and things you do.
Stay for an extra day or two.
You love me and it's easy to see,
When you kiss so tenderly.

The Chase

I'd like to get with you if you will let me.
I'd like to get you off then you can do me.
I'd say, let's do this again some day, but you'd only agree.
I kissed too many guys and said, I dig it.
I touched too many times, but don't regret it.
I've seen my share of men, and I have a favorite type.
But I still can't commit.
Don't call me, or tell me you love me.
It will be the end, I'll let you down.
Tease me, string me along the best you can.
Be nearly impossible to keep around.
I'll let you take me out but I don't want to.
I'll tell you lies and show you that I'm untrue.
I'll try my best to chase you away, but you won't have a clue.
I'm sorry that I led you on for so long.
I'm sorry but I must have sent the signs wrong.
I'm sorry things just didn't go your way.
I guess we don't belong.
Don't call me, or tell me you love me.
It will be the end, I'll let you down.
Tease me, string me along the best you can.
Be nearly impossible to keep around.
I finally found the man that I can care for.
He's perfectly imperfect and I want more.
But alas, I get what I deserve...
He's going off to war.
Don't call me, or tell me you love me.
It will be the end, I'll let you down.
Tease me, string me along the best you can.
Be nearly impossible to keep around.

Good Scents

I made a list of things to do, standard household chores.
Like, scrubbing all the floors, and the loo.
Wash my hair and under arms and sing a happy tune,
Until my fingers prune - yes, it's true.
So glad that you could find the time to try out my cuisine.
Beef and tangerine, garlic too.
You brought a bag of coffee beans that you begin to grind.
Gee, you read my mind. No, after you.
What smells good?
Stops me dead in my tracks.
I wish I could hunt it down and bring it back.
The sun's gone down, our bellies full - let's make ourselves a fire.
Never mind the right attire, you can go nude.
Nag Champa fills the room with smoke, disguising any trace,
of what some may call disgrace. So taboo.
What smells good?
Stops me dead in my tracks.
I wish I could hunt it down and bring it back.
Stay the night.
I kind of like you. Plus the rain won't stop pouring down.
If you don't, I'll dream about you.
I just like to have you around.
Cause you smell good.
You stop me dead in my tracks.
I wish I could hunt you down and bring you back.

So Far So Good

Hey you, what's with the frown?
Let's turn it upside down.
And you say...
What's the point, why should I try?
I'll do it if you tell me why.
Cause life is tough, and I can't find love.
And no one listens from up above.
And you say...
I know, I've been there too.
I know it's up to you.
But so far, so good.
So far, so good.
Get dressed, we're going out.
I'll have none of this sulking about.
And you say...
What's the point? Why should I try?
I'll do it if you tell me why.
Cause life is tough and I can't find love.
And no one listens from up above.
And you say...
I know, I've been there too.
I know it's up to you.
But so far, so good.
So far, so good.
I'll do my best to carry on and play my part.
Things aren't nearly quite as tough as they were from the start.
Hey you, what's with the frown?
Let's turn it upside down.
And you say...
Sure things, it's been a while.
This time I'll give you a smile.
Cause so far, so good.
So far, so good.
