Oh Streetscene I love my days
I'm in your garden at Cornerways
Just give us a hug you know if feels great
Give me one wish and I would graduate
From the House to Bournemouth Way
Friendly faces I hear them say


Oh Streetscene the path is long
Before I met you my road was all wrong
Loved and nurtured restored to health
The twelve step mirror made me look at myself
Gratitude and Higher Power
Pulled me through my darkest hour


Oh Streetscene you keep me calm
Oh Streetscene you're like a balm
Oh Streetscene I'm in your arms
I don't want to go


Oh Streetscene I love my days
But now it's time for me to be on my way
Before I go tho I want you to know
How much you've helped me
So I can face tomorrow
As I turn and say goodbyes
A last hug, tears in my eyes


Oh Streetscene you keep me calm
Oh Streetscene you're like a balm
Oh Streetscene I'm in your arms
Oh Streetscene safe from harm
Oh Streetscene don't cha know
I don't want to go

Lost A Little Something

Haven't had a dream in so long
Thoughtless thoughts that went wrong
I wandered what was in my mind
What was in the way this time


I threw all away that was right
Fantasy dreams dreamt all night
All the friendships that I made
Lost a little something day by day


I crossed the line of my own accord
At first my icy heart thawed
She brought me home to help me out
But I was drowning in a drought


I towed the line for a while
Kept on smiling crocodile smile
I had to leave, left things behind
Travelled back to my own kind


I threw away all that was right
Fantasy dreams dreamt all night
All the friends that I have made
Lost a little something day by day
I lost a little something day by day
Lost a little something day by day
Day by day

Cry

These tears that fall upon my face
Like the warm summer rain
Coming from the wellspring of my spirit
Which you have filled
Yes you have filled to overflowing


With happiness and joy
we cry
With laughter and love
we cry, we cry


I thought I had spent all my tears
From the hurts that came before
You've taught me how to cry in laughter
Not all tears are shed in sorrow
Not all crying comes from pain


With happiness and joy
I cry
With laughter and love
I cry, I cry
