1.Through The Looking Glass

You call my name then you run for protection
I reach out to hold ya' but it's just a reflection
Throught the looking glass

Now you've been looking at your life through a mirror
It's time you started seeing things a little bit clearer than
Through the looking glass

Watch me break through, girl
I still love you, girl

I think you love me by the way you come on girl
Then i turn away for a minute, you're gone girl
Through the looking glass

Ahh...

You're looking through me
Like you never knew me

I've got some things that i'm tryin' to show ya
But you fade away how can i get to know 'ya
Through the looking glass


2.Don't Listen To Linda

By tommy boyce & bobby hart

Don't listen to linda
She said all those things before
She's just a pretender,
And though you couldn't love her more
She'll lead you on, and then one day
She'll say you'll have to part
Don't listen to linda
She'll only break your heart.

Don't listen to linda
If you want some good advice,
Just try to remember,
She did it once, she'll do it twice
There's more to her little games,
Than your eyes can see,
Don't listen to linda,
Or you'll end up like me.

You'll never understand her
All the presents you could hand her,
Could never be enough, oh no,
So, don't underestimate her,
&cause sooner or later,
The goings gonna start to get rough.

Don't listen to linda,
Don't believe the things you hear.
You'll end up, contender,
For the ※loser of the year§.
I've said everything i can
To try and make you see
Don't listen to linda,
Or you'll end up like me.


3.I Won't Be The Same Without Her

Life is hard for me to touch now.
I just don't enjoy it as much now.
When she left, something inside of me died.
And i won't be the same without her,
No i won't be the same without her
By my side.

There's no end end to my sorrow.
I'm afraid to face tomorrow.
When she left, she took much more than my pride.
And i won't be the same without her,
No i won't be the same without her
By my side.

It isn't easy to forget her,
And the way it used to be.
She changed my life the day i met her.
And i won't be the same without her,
No i won't be the same without her
Close to me.

Repeat first verse.


4.You And I

You and i have seen what time does, haven't we?
We both had time to grow
You know we've got more growing to do, me and you
And the rest of them too

You can see the changes we've been going through
Such a pity, what a shame
Who can we blame?
You and me, me and you, and the rest of them too

In a year or maybe two
We'll be gone and some one new will take our place
There'll be another song,
Another voice, another pretty face

You and i have seen what time does haven't we?
We've both had time to grow
You know we've got more growin' to do
Me and you, and the rest of them too


5.Just A Game

There's a way
There's a way for you and i
If you'll just stay.
If you'll just stay to keep me hidden from the day,
And all its light,
That's covered up by night when you're away.
When you're away the image of your face is clear,
It is clear across the room and i am here,
Against the wall, afraid that it is all
Just a game.
Just a game that's played in fun
But not too real.
Not too real to take a chance on finding out
You've really lost.
I can't see you clearly while i'm here.
While i'm here and you are in my state of mind.
My state of mind is changing places all the time,
And i am lost
Trying to get across another time.
When you're away the image of your face is clear,
It is clear across the room and i am here,
Against the wall, afraid that it is all
Just a game
Just a game
Just a game.


6.Me Without You

Written:boyce/hart

I wonder just how long it would be
Me without you, you without me
We had a fight last nioght about something or other
But it can't be too important if wqe love one another
True love always seems to take a little bit longer
But every time we break up, we make up a little bit stronger
I wonder just how long it would be
Me without you, you without me
Let me tell you know
I wonder just how long it would be
Me without you, you without me qo
Me without you, you without me
Me without you, you without me
Me without you, you without me'


7.Don't Wait For Me

Don't wait for me...i'll be a long time comin'
Unless by then, you have told me something
To show how much you care
I've done much more than as a man i should have
Why did you...not do all you could have...to show
How much you care?

Over and again i've wondered was i wrong
Kept thinkin' that i maybe shoulda come along
But there comes a time in every man's life
When he must be strong
And my time's come
And if you're gone
Then i guess i'll cry and hold to memories
Of 'what might have beens'
And when i finally leave
That will show how much i care.
(repeat)


8.Tear Drop City

About as low as i felt in a long time
And i know that i did a wrong at the wrong time
It's plain to see, she's down on me
And i know she'll feel that way for a long time

I was high on top but i didn't know it
Tell me, why did i have to go and blow it?
I used my lines too many times
And now i've got a badly hurt heart to show it

Took me too long to discover
How much i really love her
How'd i ever end up in this bind?
What a drag

There she goes looking for pretty clover
No one knows what it's like until it over
Without a doubt, i just found out
And i suppose i never did get to know her

Tear drop city, tear drop city

Took me to long to discover
How much i really love her
How'd i ever end up in this bind
What a drag

About as low as i felt in a long time...


9.While I Cry

They told me what you'd do
If i ever stayed with you.
They told me that you'd laugh
While i cried.

They told me what you'd say
That you'd turn and walk away
And find another place to play,
While i cried.

Now i think back on those times
I didn't read between the lines.
How all the things that you said
Never seemed to match the things you did.

Thoughts keep turning round in my mind
Now i see reason and rhyme.
Time spent with you has brought me something
And i've lost nothing if you are that kind.

They told me what you'd do
If i ever stayed with you
And sure enough,
It all came true.


10.The Girl I Left Behind Me

Its old enough to try and tie you down
So, i just couldn't wait and hang around
You always said must be free
But you couldn't see you were loosing me
And messing up the one good thing we had

Chorus:
And now i'm going out the way that i came in
The game is over now, i couldn't win
My heart is all i have to pack
And this time girl i wont be back
And years from now i'll turn around and see
The girl i left behind me

I told myself that things would be ok
You would come around to my way any day
As time went on you just stayed the same
No, you couldn't chang or be rearranged
I'm picking up the pieces of my life

Chorus

As time went on you just stayed the same
No, you couldn't chang or be rearranged
I'm picking up the pieces of my life

Chorus

Behind me...


11.A Man Without A Dream

With the music of life
My soul is out of tune
And i feel like i'm growing old
Much too soon
My love i just couldn't compare
And the key to my happiness
I let slip away

Chorus:
Now i'm a man without a dream
I've got a heart that has no home
All my senses are numb
Loosing you i've become
A man without a dream

Instead of striving to reach my goals in life
I got distracted with mean, endless games
For just an illusion i traded love that was real
Now my eyes cannot see and my heart cannot feel

Chorus

Sometimes i think i'm a prisoner of fate
Doomed to find out things a little too late
And so i must play this broken man's roll
Unless you come home girl
And bring back my soul

Chorus

Without a dream...


12.Shorty Blackwell

Written:micky dolenz

Shorty blackwell, shorty blackwell
Be friends with me, be friends with me
Shorty blackwell, shorty blackwell
Be friends with me, be friends with me

I'm feeling very bad today
Another cat came into stay
He's eating all my food
He's speaking very rude
He's gonna change the mood

I'm feeling very bad today
A red balloon got in my way
It followed me around
But never touched the ground
What can i say?

He built a house upon a hill
Ask him if he's happy and then give him a pill
He's going mad
He bought another car today
Ask him if he's happy, then turn the other way
He's going mad (repeat over and over)

I'm feeling very bad today
Another cat came into stay
He's eating all my food
He's speaking very rude
He's gonna change the mood

Black and shiny now you've finally
Gotten everything you've wanted
And you're taunted by the power
That you really don't want anymore

Everybody's talking faster
Hurry up get me a master
I don't have much time to lose
And besides i'm polishing my shoes

Crossing the street
Watching your feet
Or you'll die in a thunderbird light
Wishing with all of your might
That you read the newspaper that
You forgot to buy today
How will you know what they do when they say
Say(repeat over and over)

I'm feeling very bad today
Another girl came by to stay
I can't think of a word
To tell you what i've heard
I've been away (10 times)

I am my? (repeat continually as it fades)
