Beth Hart Album

what's that you say
gonna sleep all day
so tired, been wired
you're so uptight
got no sleep last night
gone crazy, so lazy

you say, I've been awake so long
my feet are 'bout to fumble
I've been wake so long barely holding on
I've been wake so long my knees begin to tremble
and I like how I feel

don't turn out the light
don't turn out the light

what's that you said
spiders in your bed
can't rest here
desperate fear
go get your gun
smoke the little ones
a cheap thrill, sleeping pill

you say, I've been wake so long
my feet are bout to fumble
I've been wake so long barely holding on
I've been wake so long my knees begin to tremble
and I like how I feel

spiders in my bed
spiders in my bed
yes, that's what I said
spiders in my bed
don't turn out the light

so you think i'm crazy
want to take me away
inject me with electric shock
i'm not going nowhere
hear what i say loud and clear
reveal your sly intentions
and free my isolation

a second longer say it's alright
a second longer say it's alright
a second longer i'll be insane
the second i become you
and what you say

run your wires through me
fry electricity
gas me till i pass on out
you will not control me
with your failed philosophies
weep to ease the tension
and free my isolation

a second longer say it's alright
a second longer say it's alright
a second longer i'll be insane
the second i become you
and what you say

lost my mind today
it was my desire
i told them what was wrong but they
called me a liar
yeah, they called me a liar
i am not afraid
why should i care what they say
i told them they were wrong still
they called me a liar
so i set 'em on fire

a second longer say it's alright
what your gonna say

If I whisper my thoughts, would you hear the chanting of my heart?
Phrasing melodies unsung in the dark.
Saying hold me through the night.
Hear the music from my room, calling out to you.
Come home to me soon.
Shadows bellowing duets with the moon, singing hold me through the night.
hold me through the night, hold me through the night.

And the water drop in the drain, just like the sound it makes You're coming round again.
There's a soft piano in a warm summer's rain playing hold me through the night, hold me through the night, hold me through the night. Hold me, hold me through the night. Oh ya gotta hold me through. Ya gotta hold me through the night, hold me through the night.

i can't tell between the two
it's all the same to me
i can't tell what's on your mind
too late, too far behind
life's a state of mind

gimme gimme time
gimme gimme time

as i lie beneath the sky
i speak to fireflies
and with every passing fear
my sorrow disappears
colors in my tears
change thought out the years

oh gimme time
gimme gimme time
oh gimme time

la la la yi la
no lesson
no lesson here

as i lie beneath the sky
i speak to fireflies
and with every passing fear
my sorrow disappears
colors in my tears
slowly disappears

gimme gimme time
oh give me time
oh give me time
gimme gimme time

got a lot to learn chile
seeking hearts concerns chile
if you want her chile
if you want to burn
here's your fire, gonna fry her

will you let me in

screamed temptation

got a lot to learn chile
seeking hearts concerns chile
if you wanna hurt chile
if you want to burn
here's your fire
gonna fry her

got a lot to learn chile

what'll you say
when she starts weeping
what'll you do, what'll you do
when she crows

walking by temptation cries
i am thee and
i will be here again

tryin' to fly mountain high
are you tryin' to be immortal
come on here's your chance
take your dance
say goodbye to your mother
just let your life shine now's the
time what you've been given will
do just fine
just let your love come through
your song for the people
listen to the voices of your soul
are you trying to be immortal
i can see the future's been painted
red white and blue
i won't whisper if you won't
you adn I kknow that it ain't true
just let your life shine now's the
time what you've been given will

just let your love come through
your song for the people
listen to the voices of your soul
they're tryin' to tell you
what you already know
are you trying ot be immortal
my life's a bitch while you're livin' on the bubble
thought I saw right
but now I think I'm seein' double
are you tryin' to be immortal
free the free you got to
llook through your left eye
what you gonna do
what you gonna do
the future's been painted
red, white and blue

Summer Is Gone

(Beth Hart)

Album: Immortal (1996)

Summer's gone -
Days passing by again
Chill rushes in sin
Come take me away my friend
I don't wanna take too long
Grab my summer smile and I'll be along

(Chorus:)

'Cause we're gonna
Ride, ride, ride
Through the valley
Roll, roll, roll
In the fields, I swear
Fly, fly, fly
With the deepest part of our hearts

Are you ready to start
Let's get the hell outta here
Hell on outta here

And if I get lonely
If I get thirsty for the sun
I'll roll down my window
I can feel the road, she's my only one
I ain't gonna waste my time, no way
Get me outta here and I'll bring the wine

(Chorus: Repeat)

Summer's gone -
Days passing by again...

Ringing

[Beth Hart]

Album: Immortal (1996)

Rollin' out of bed a little heavy
Sickened from the deadness in my head
Beggin' for a break I'm tired of trippin'
Sounds loud enough to wake the dead

Hear 'em ringing on ringing ringing on
As if it's not enough
From the dusk till dawn
They keep ringing on

Stumble to the mr. coffee maker
Sip a little joe and lift me off
Shakin' from the screams of hurry hurry
Smackin' on the prime I'm way behind

Feel me ringing on yes I'm tingling on
As if it's not enough
Sift the dusk till dawn and I'll be
Ringing on

Rollin' into bed a little heavy
Bounded by the sound that blows my mind
Sister cryin' bleeding worry worries
Mother mary god she sends her sign

Hear her ringing on yes she's singing on
I'll give her all my love
All are dreaming on in her black rust song
Ringing ringing on ringing ringing on

All are dreaming on
In her black rust song

God Bless You

[Beth Hart]

Album: Immortal (1996)

I love you and all that you do
I need you to see me through
I want you and I say
Oh and god bless you

She told me you're going away
I said how can I make you stay
I love you and I say
Oh and god bless you

If I call out your name
Could you hear me calling
If I said that it's wrong
Would you say I'm falling
If I told you the truth would you
Stay
Say ya say ya

I love you and all that you do
I need you to see me through
I want you and I say
Oh and god bless you

I could wait a lifetime to see
The sunrise but I would never
Wait so long to see you all right
And make you knay won't you just
Stay
Say ya say ya

(humming)

I sing these words, time and time again
to express my life, of being your lover, and your friend
and as the clouds, cry cry cry cry, high above, shed their tears
i'll embrace you, with love, from all your fear

(chorus..varys each time)
am i the one, am i the one that you love
am i the one,hheeyy,
am i the one that you think of
am, am i, am i the one..

oh yeh yeh yeh
a passion in your caress, flows from your fingertips
and i pray for the day, that i hear those prescious words pass through your lips
wishin upon the start, from up above..uhh
that soon you'll love at me baby, and say im the one that you love

am i the one, yeh,
am i the one that you love
am i the one, hey hey
am i the one that you think of

dont you make me feel crazy, if i break down and cry
just tell me that you love me baby
even if it is a lie

am, am i
am, am i
am, am i,
am i the one..

(words vary)

She remembers the day they met
Right down to the minute
Her life was never the same
Yeah, sitting alone in the dark
Staring into the rain
Her life was never (never) the same

She cries
Its a mystery
Ain't nobody seen
How much this is hurting me
It's black magic
It's the season of the Witch
Blame the Moon, oh oh
Blame the Moon
Blame the Moon, oh oh
Blame the Moon

Yeah, its a mystery
Ain't nobody seen
How much this is hurting me
Its black magic
Its the season of the Witch

Blame the Moon, oh oh
Blame the Moon
Blame the Moon, oh oh
Blame, blame, blame, blame
Blame the Moon, oh oh
Blame the Moon,
I said blame the moon
Blame the moon, oh oh
Blame, blame

Blame the Moon
