THE FIRE INSIDE MY HEART
Copyright by Mark "M.E." Edwards
Verse 1
Let me tell you about a little girl I knew
With a smile that would last awhile and most often would
Well she stole my heart, and that was just the start
of a love that would last a lifetime and never stop
Verse 2
She knows what she’s got, might not seem a lot
but it burns with a passion and fire inside her gut
Like Tom and Huck, flushed full of luck
When they sailed down the Mississippi ‘til that raft got stuck.
Chorus
The Fire Inside My Heart,
Is burning like the sun, keeps burning on and on
And everyday, when I see you smile
Feel the fire inside, my Heart
Verse 3
She got on that bus, New York or bust
And she left me standing there in a trail of dust
Well she broke my heart, tore it right apart
But I waved and I smiled and I told her it was just the start
Bridge
Got a feeling, she’ll be making it someday
A Funny feeling , and now I’ve just got to say
Chorus (repeat)
Chorus (repeat but without first line)

FRIENDS

Verse 1
Where am I going?
Where have I been?
This endless searching,
when will I win?
Verse 2
Faithfully,
watching you, watching me
All that I have,
and what's to be
Chorus
Don't you see that I know that there's times that we don't see
we don't see eye to eye, eye to eye
Oh, can't you see? I've got to do for me
Hopefully
Verse 3
For me, there's only one thing to do
And I wish you wouldn't be angry with me
Cause you know, you know we'll become
once again, we'll be...
Chorus
Friends, I'll see you again,
I'll see you again, my friend
And as night becomes the day
There will be another time, and another day
(Repeat each Chorus again)

SAY WHAT YOU MEAN
Copyright by Mark "M.E." Edwards
Verse 1
Hang up the phone and laugh to yourself,
at just how easy it seems
Telling Lies and playing with words,
all in pursuit of your dreams
(Chorus - Music only)
Verse 2
Do you think so much of yourself?
Or just so little of me
Or have you been so badly betrayed ,
that makes you act so mean?
Chorus:
Say what you mean, mean what you say, baby
Cause I don’t play it any other way
Lies in the night come the light of day
they don’t go away
Verse 3
Look in the mirror, who do you see?
Can’t seem to place that face
Those hollow eyes looking back at you
So full of shame, and disgrace
Take no prisoners, show no remorse.
All in the name of the game
But the hate catches up to you.
What will you do come the judgment day?
Chorus (Repeat twice):
Say what you mean, mean what you say,
do what you say, say what you do
Come on , come on
Say what you mean,
mean what you say,
Come on and baby do it
