What’s My Scene?
(Dave Faulkner)

And another thing
I’ve been wondering lately
Oh, baby,
Tell me where have you been?
Now the stage is set
Where’s my Juliet, baby?
Is it maybe
My midsummer night’s dream?
What’s my scene?
Tell me, what’s my scene?

Like a talent scout
I’m always checking out new blood
Oh, I’d do good
If you tell me your game.
Playing Solitaire
Doesn’t get me where you would
And, honey, you could
Play by any rules that you care to name.

What’s my scene?
Tell me, I gotta know.

What’s my, what’s my,
What’s my, what’s my scene?
What’s my, what’s my,
What’s my, what’s my scene?

They say, yeah, they say
Making love, you can make it pay.
They say, yeah, they say,
But we know there’s a better way
Any day.

And another thing
I’ve been wondering lately
Am I crazy
To believe in ideals?
Well, I’m a betting man
But it’s getting damn lonely.
Oh, honey, if only
I was sure what I feel.

What’s my scene?
Tell me, I gotta know.

What’s my, what’s my,
What’s my, what’s my scene?
What’s my, what’s my,
What’s my, what’s my scene?

I wanna know.
I can see
I’m caught, I’m caught in someone else’s scene.
Oh, where oh, where oh, where can my scene be?

What’s my…?

Good Times
(Dave Faulkner)

You told me goodbye and I believed you.
Felt like I would die – I didn’t need to
‘Cos you came back to me
And everything’s like it used to be.

All the good times we had we’ll have again.
All the good times we had we’ll have again.

If your love is mine then it will stand up
To the test of time, tt will stand up.
It looked like we were through,
But in our heart of hearts we knew

The good times we had we’ll have again.
All the good times we had we’ll have again.

And again.
Now I know you’ll always be my friend
Til the end.
That means more to me than anything.
It’s everything.

Who needs yesterday, that’s far behind us
It is, and memories only may serve to remind us
That what felt good before
Today we’ll treasure so much more.

All the good times we had we’ll have again.
All the good times we had we’ll have again.

I Was The One
(Dave Faulkner)

Darling, this is goodbye.
Kiss me, I don’t know why.
You were always beautiful when you closed your eyes.
Leave now, while we still can.
Let’s not wait until it all gets out of hand.
You’re looking for a criminal, well, I’m a guilty man.

I was the one.
I was the one.
I was the one.

We were wrong from the start
Maybe we tried just a Iittle too hard.
You don’t have to blame yourself,
you always played your part.

I was the one.
I was the one.
I was the one.

I was.

Darling, look at us now, look at us now!
History won’t put us down, won’t put us down.
Don’t let anybody say you should have worked it out.

I was the one.
I was the one.
I was the one.

Hell For Leather
(Dave Faulkner)

Make something happen.
If you don’t, I will.
We might lose a lifetime looking for a thrill.
Night is the jungle
A forbidden place –
In the neon forest people vanish
Without trace.

Midnight
Stay tight together

Greased up and ready,
A well-oiled machine:
You’re my motorcycle I’m your gasoline.
Spark my ignition,
You hold the key.
Won’t you kick yourself in gear and
Ride away with me?

And I fell
Like hell for leather.
Can’t you
Tell it’s forever

Trapped in the city,
You learn to save your skin
(There) ain’t no human zoo could ever cage us in.
Night is the jungle
But don’t you lose your way,
There’s hungry creatures out there eager
For some easy prey.

And I fell
Like hell for leather
You can tell that it’s forever.

Forever.

Won’t you ride away with me
Hell for leather.

Where Nowhere Is
(Dave Faulkner)

Do you know where nowhere is?
It’s where you are.
Do you know what nothing means?
Y-O-U.
Do you know what no-one thinks?
It’s all about you.
And do you know what?
Nobody cares!

Well, you can’t see the stars
In the daytime,
And you can’t see the sun
When it’s night,
But you can’t even see yourself In the mirror
And I Don’t see you at all.
Not at all.

Do you know where     (Nowhere)
Do you know where     (Nowhere)
Do you know where     (Nowhere)
Nowhere is?

You had everything
That you ever wanted.
Man, you had it made,
Was what you had!
You forgot the only thing
You ever needed
And you can’t hide, you can’t hide that from me!
No, not from me.

Do you know where    (Nowhere)
Do you know where    (Nowhere)
Do you know where    (Nowhere)
Nowhere is?

Middle Of The Land
(Dave Faulkner)

Here I stand in the middle of the land,
Take my hand in the middle of the land.

You’ll see something that’s new in the sunshine,
You’ll be the winter that’s turning to springtime.

Here I stand in the middle of the land,
Take my hand in the middle of the land.

Someday someone will try to confuse you:
They’ll say things you might want to hear and then they’ll “use” you.
I thought we’d live and learn
But some folks seem to yearn
For values unsophisticated.
Those days are dead and gone,
I won’t wish them back upon
A world that’s much more complicated.

Here I stand in the middle of the land.
Take my hand, I’m always glad to lend a hand.

They’ll try to blind you with T.V. religion,
Don’t buy their hand-me-down second opinions.
Sometimes the biggest lies
Are most easily disguised,
Dressed up like The Road To Glory,
Then somewhere down the line
You’ll rub your eyes and find
You’re on a path to your own purgatory.

You’ll know something as old as the moonlight,
You’ll throw superstition and fear away tonight.
They’ll paint us black and white,
They’ll paint us wrong and right,
They’ll paint us all into a corner.
They’ll try to cool us down
But they could never fool us now,
We’re steamed up hotter than a Swedish sauna!

Here I stand in the middle of the land
Take my, take my hand – your horizons will expand.
Here I stand in the middle, middle of the land.
Land, in the middle, middle of the land
Land on me.

Come On
(Dave Faulkner)

Oh, come on,
I’ve been hanging out,
Had some nagging doubts,
But that was until now.
Oh, come on,
You are all I want.
All I want.
How could I hold out for long?

Oh, come on,
Who cares what people say?
‘Cause we can sleep all day,
Tonight won’t keep away.
Let’s just play.
Oh, come on,
How can we be wrong ?
We’re not wrong
When we both feel so strong.
We’re so strong, we’re so strong
Come on.

Come on,
The last train’s almost gone.
Really gone!
Let’s enjoy the ride we’re on.
So come on,
We can take our time –
We can take walk the line, after all.

So come on,
‘Cause it’s you I love.
When push comes to shove
You’re more than enough.
You’re more than enough.
Come on.

Heart Of Darkness
(Dave Faulkner)

Blood flows just like water
Changing into wine.
Everything looks better in the black sunshine,
In the black sunshine.

Echoes drag my memory
Back where they began
But I just can’t be sorry – my tears turn into sand.
All those tears turn into sand.

I don’t care now
For what might have been,
The heart of darkness closes in on me.

My Caravan
(Dave Faulkner)

My caravan
Is far from home.
I seek a path to parts unknown.
My caravan
Hides from the sun,
By moonlit night my journey’s done.

Your smallest wish is my command.
My caravan.

Ships in the night,
Ships of the sand,
The camels in my caravan.
May Allah smile
Upon your land
And safely guide my caravan.

His smallest wish is our command.
My caravan.

I build my dreams on shifting sand,
My caravan.

On My Street
(Dave Faulkner)

Won’t you visit my town?
Ain’t too far, you just go eight miles underground
And take The Diamond Mine straight to my street.
Everybody you know
Is dying to meet you (‘cos they all told me so!)
And Tojo booked you HoJo’s bridal suite.

Light a candle with a star,
Turn around, and there you are.
On my street you can drive no car.

Anybody could see
The Flying Doctor’s been barking up the wrong tree –
Cecil B. De Mille lives on my street.
C.Y. O’Connor’s feeling depressed
And Gypsy Rose Lee is always under-dressed,
While Liberace is playing with his feet

Fly Sinatra to the moon
You’ll be back by afternoon
On my street you can call the tune

You’re on my street.
