I’D LEAVE ME TOO<br />
© <strong>Audrey</strong> <strong>Auld</strong> 1999<br />
So your bags are packed<br />
And by the door<br />
I know after tonight<br />
I won’t see you anymore<br />
We’ve done all the crying<br />
We’ve talked it through<br />
Darling I don’t blame you<br />
Cause I’d leave me too<br />
Don’t think I don’t understand<br />
Just how hard it’s been<br />
If I could I’d leave me too<br />
And start again<br />
So darling you’re the lucky one<br />
And I wish I were you<br />
I won’t stop you when you go<br />
Cause I’d leave me too<br />
But there’s no door that I can slam<br />
No I can’t walk away<br />
I’ve been living with myself<br />
Even I don’t want to stay<br />
So darling you’re the lucky one<br />
And I wish I were you<br />
I won’t stop you when you go<br />
Cause I’d leave me too<br />
No I won’t stop you when you go<br />
Cause I’d leave me too<br />
BLACK CLOUD<br />
© <strong>Audrey</strong> <strong>Auld</strong> 1999 (APRA)<br />
I been feeding the crow of sorrow<br />
He’s been hanging around my door<br />
Pecking at the crumbs of misery<br />
THE FALLEN - LYRICS
Crying out for more<br />
One for sorrow, two for joy<br />
Three for a girl, four for a boy<br />
I been walking old black dog<br />
He’s been nipping around my heels<br />
Chewing on the bones of my soul<br />
Howling out for more<br />
Five for silver, six for gold<br />
Seven for a story that’s never been told<br />
Black cloud<br />
Rain on my parade<br />
Black cloud<br />
Black days<br />
I been dreaming of a long black snake<br />
He’s been chasing me till I wake<br />
Poison deep in my veins<br />
Crawling out my skin<br />
One for sorrow, two for joy<br />
Three for a girl, four for a boy<br />
Five for silver, six for gold<br />
Seven for a story that’s never been told<br />
Black cloud<br />
Rain on my parade<br />
Black cloud<br />
Black days<br />
Black cloud<br />
Rain on my parade<br />
Black cloud<br />
SHOVE IT<br />
© <strong>Audrey</strong> <strong>Auld</strong> 2000 (APRA)<br />
Well you can shove it cause I don’t love it<br />
I’m about to go and get gone<br />
<strong>The</strong> way you’re acting is so distracting<br />
I’m thinking that before too long<br />
I’ll be walking while you’re still talking ‘bout<br />
Everything I’m doing wrong<br />
You can shove it cause I don’t love it<br />
I’m about to go and get gone<br />
Ever since you met me<br />
You were out to get me<br />
And I wasn’t running too fast<br />
I thought “here’s a cutie<br />
A real sweet patootie<br />
This one’s gonna last”<br />
Along comes trouble<br />
You burst my bubble<br />
Now everything is coming apart<br />
THE FALLEN - LYRICS
If you don’t get it<br />
<strong>The</strong>n you’ll regret it<br />
Cause you aint breaking my heart<br />
So you can shove it cause I don’t love it<br />
I’m about to go and get gone<br />
<strong>The</strong> way you’re acting is so distracting<br />
I’m thinking that before too long<br />
I’ll be walking while you’re still talking ‘bout<br />
Everything I’m doing wrong<br />
You can shove it cause I don’t love it<br />
I’m about to go and get gone<br />
Well it aint shakin’<br />
And I aint waiting<br />
For you to wake up and see<br />
What you’re blowing<br />
Cause you aint going<br />
To give your loving heart to me<br />
You’ll be sorry<br />
But I won’t worry<br />
Cause I’m about already gone<br />
I’ll be packing while you’re backtracking<br />
And you’ll be hearing this song<br />
Well you can shove it cause I don’t love it<br />
I’m about to go and get gone<br />
<strong>The</strong> way you’re acting is so distracting<br />
I’m thinking that before too long<br />
I’ll be walking while you’re still talking ‘bout<br />
Everything I’m doing wrong<br />
You can shove it cause I don’t love it<br />
I’m about to go and get gone<br />
TO THE BONE<br />
© <strong>Audrey</strong> <strong>Auld</strong> 2000 (APRA)<br />
Don’t stir the fire of loneliness<br />
Cause I been gone too long<br />
<strong>The</strong> love I feel for you darlin’ goes<br />
Right to the bone<br />
I’d swim the ocean deep and wide<br />
To come to you alone<br />
<strong>The</strong> pain of never seeing you cuts<br />
Right to the bone<br />
When it’s heaven here on earth<br />
And nothing can go wrong<br />
Is when it seems to hurt the most<br />
Right to the bone<br />
If I could fly I’d spread my wings<br />
THE FALLEN - LYRICS
Cause where you are is home<br />
And then you’d know my love for you goes<br />
Right to the bone<br />
So keep a candle burning bright<br />
It’s there that I belong<br />
Remember darling my love for you goes<br />
Right to the bone<br />
Don’t stir the fire of loneliness<br />
Cause I been gone too long<br />
<strong>The</strong> love I feel for you darlin’ goes<br />
Right to the bone<br />
Remember darling my love for you goes<br />
Right to the bone<br />
JELLYROLL<br />
© <strong>Audrey</strong> <strong>Auld</strong> 1999 (APRA)<br />
Well it must be jelly cause jam don’t shake like that<br />
Yeah it must be jelly cause jam don’t shake like that<br />
Love my daddy, baby he’s so fat<br />
Cooking in the kitchen to keep him satisfied<br />
Cooking in the kitchen to keep him satisfied<br />
Loves what I give him<br />
Long as it’s southern fried<br />
He sits on the table, cause he broke the chair<br />
My fat daddy’s gonna shake it everywhere<br />
It must be jelly cause jam don’t shake like that<br />
My big daddy, he’s so big and fat<br />
He’s my fatty, look at that jellyroll<br />
He’s my fatty, look at that jellyroll<br />
<strong>The</strong> more he eats the faster my money goes<br />
He’s built for comfort, not for speed<br />
My fat daddy gives me everything I need<br />
It must be jelly cause jam don’t shake like that<br />
My big daddy, baby he’s so fat<br />
Love my daddy, baby he’s fat<br />
Oh butterball!<br />
WITHOUT YOU<br />

THE FALLEN - LYRICS<br />
When dreams come to haunt me in the middle of the night<br />
I reach for you cause I need to hold you tight<br />
It’s then that I remember why the dreams come<br />
<strong>The</strong>y’re the only part of you<br />
Still holding on
Still holding on<br />
To your memory<br />
Still holding on<br />
To what’s left of me<br />
Lonely and forsaken, nothing means a thing<br />
Waiting in the emptiness for the phone to ring<br />
While my heart is sinking like the evening sun<br />
Your memory’s the only thing<br />
Still holding on<br />
Still holding on<br />
To what might have been<br />
Still holding on<br />
To what’s left of me<br />
I don’t have a future living in the past<br />
All the love you promised didn’t last<br />
I watched without speaking your love slip away<br />
<strong>The</strong>re’s nothing left to cling to<br />
But yesterday<br />
Still holding on<br />
To your memory<br />
Still holding on<br />
To what’s left of me<br />
Still holding on<br />
Still holding on<br />
I know you’re gone<br />
But I’m still holding on<br />
Although you’re gone<br />
I’m still holding on<br />
TOO FAR TO FALL<br />
© <strong>Audrey</strong> <strong>Auld</strong> 1998 (APRA)<br />
Don’t tell me to smile<br />
I’m doing fine<br />
My heart’s been broken<br />
Too many times<br />
And don’t ask my number<br />
It’s best not to call<br />
If you pick me up I’ll have<br />
Too far to fall<br />
Once I was happy<br />
But that was back when<br />
I believed in forever<br />
But I won’t again<br />
Now I’m used to sorrow<br />
I don’t mind at all<br />
When I go to pieces it’s not<br />
THE FALLEN - LYRICS
Too far to fall<br />
Down on the bottom<br />
It’s where I belong<br />
I won’t have to go far<br />
When love goes wrong<br />
So don’t try to cheer me<br />
Or make me feel glad<br />
I’m happy when I’m<br />
Lonely and sad<br />
You’ll go just like<br />
<strong>The</strong> others before<br />
When you let me down it’s not<br />
Too far to fall<br />
So just leave me down, it’s not<br />
Too far to fall<br />

MISSING YOU<br />
© <strong>Audrey</strong> <strong>Auld</strong> 1998 (APRA)<br />
Train whistle moans in the distance<br />
Birds cry out across the bay<br />
<strong>The</strong> night hangs heavy without ending<br />
Filled with the ghost of where you lay<br />
<strong>The</strong> house stands quiet as a tombstone<br />
Rain falls steady like my tears<br />
Somewhere out there you’re leaving<br />
<strong>The</strong> echo of goodbye is all I hear<br />
<strong>The</strong>n I get to missing you<br />
And wishing you were here<br />
Longing for the tenderness<br />
I felt when you were near<br />
<strong>The</strong>n I get to crying<br />
Crying all night long<br />
<strong>The</strong>n I get to missing you<br />
But you’re so far gone<br />
<strong>The</strong> rain on the water in the morning<br />
It’s winter in my heart and I’m cold<br />
You left a shell and a memory<br />
Took with you your love and my soul<br />
<strong>The</strong>n I get to missing you<br />
And wishing you were here<br />
Longing for the tenderness<br />
I felt when you were near<br />
<strong>The</strong>n I get to crying<br />
Crying all night long<br />
<strong>The</strong>n I get to missing you<br />
But you’re too far-gone<br />
SONG FOR CLAX<br />
© <strong>Audrey</strong> <strong>Auld</strong> 1999 (APRA)<br />
You lived your life<br />
Like a moth around a flame<br />
Taking all the chances<br />
And going back again<br />
<strong>The</strong> flame finally got you<br />
Threw yourself right in<br />
Turned your back on Mother Nature<br />
If music is the food of love<br />
THE FALLEN - LYRICS
<strong>The</strong>n why where you so thin?<br />
Banging on a lonely drum<br />
And hating everything<br />
When in dreams you come to me<br />
With pictures of the future<br />
It’s safe in the arms of Mother Nature<br />
And though I never cried I’m crying now<br />
For all the sadness that you taught me<br />
And though I never sang I’m singing now<br />
With all the wonder that you brought me<br />
<strong>The</strong> very thing that got me through<br />
Is just what did you in<br />
I saw you sleep with open eyes<br />
Way before the end<br />
When the sun beat down<br />
It could not warm your skin<br />
Cause you were leaving Mother Nature<br />
And though I never cried I’m crying now<br />
For all the sadness that you taught me<br />
And though I never sang I’m singing now<br />
With all the wonder that you brought me<br />
You lived your life<br />
Like a moth around a flame<br />
Taking all the chances<br />
And going back again<br />
When the sun beat down on you<br />
It could not warm your skin<br />
Cause you were leaving Mother Nature<br />
Leaving the arms of Mother Nature<br />
