ITs not the end of the world it's not the end of the sky it's not the end of my life just the end of you and I It's all right losing is the only way it's all right just a little bit less than yesterday Your love is like a dried-up stream your love is not for me It's all right everything has to die by the time you're dead half your friends will be gone you need some practice in loneliness you'll have to die alone Your love is like a dried-up stream... It's not the end of the world..

Every piece of mud every drop of blood every pint of sorrow Every slicey cut every dicey mutt every strange tomorrow All the way home All the way home Forty Thousand miles Seven Hundred years That's how far we will go To leave the human race to look upon your face to keep our promise to you All the way home All the way home All the way home Steal away Steal away Steal away home Steal away drive away there's no reason to stay I would leap a wall I would trash it all But I would never leave you Now I know for sure this love will endure Now I can believe you All the way home

I'm all alone in a great big zoo I'm all alone in the city ain't got nobody to see me through I'm all alone and it's all right cuz I"m with you You are the potter I'm the clay Don't have to listen to what the people say But I'm taking too many hours to find my way too many days and years and all kind of mistakes can't seem to do it no other way I'm all alone and it's all right cuz I'm with you she is the anchor I"m the sea got everything I need inside of me So don't go talking bout my old ways Don't go putting me out in the schoolyard I'm just as good as you any day I'm all alone and it's all right get out of my way I know the patience I know the fire and yes he keeps lifting me higher and higher and higher I'm all alone I'm all alone in a great big zoo I'm all alone in a great big corporate jungle it's all right I'm all alone in a mad mad mad mad world I've been listening for voices I never hear You can leave me alone I don't mind it's all right

why did you give your love then take it back why did you take me in the send me away I was so foolish then wanting to taste it all I was an innocent boy I did not know the price you must pay for the girl the cruelty in the ways of the world now I am farther along and you are just part of my past now I can see it all now I am free the price you must pay... will you stay alone the rest of your life will you tell them how it really was between you and me everything changes and everything everything dies the price you must pay for the girl the tricks in the ways of the world

Sailing on a stormy sea a mile from paradise why should I think twice it won't change a thing talking to somebody who never shows his face oh the human race I'll be done with it One more song to go we're almost done One more little show on the run I was just a dying leaf trembling in the breeze you brought me to my knees long ago now I see the setting sun it makes me want to cry you know the reason why I belong to you One more song to go we're almost done one more crazy show on the run They told me not to do it they said it would never work but what else can I do?

about

Veteran Andy Pratt’s latest showcases his good songwriting abilities, nice, expressive vocals, and cool piano playing. Many of the melodies have a folk feel, but I hear pop and theatre here also, and “How Are You?” and “I’m All Alone” almost rock out. For folk ballads listen to: “Take It All Away” and “Loving You (the Right Way). For easy-listening pop with his usual very specific lyrical content listen to “Home of the Brave.” My favorite song is “Sing,” a real radio-friendly tune with a cool “na-na-na” vocal opening. Sorta like Cat Stevens meets Billy Joel or Paul Simon meets Elton. Good for a mellow evening. (A.J. Wachtel)
