1	Little Black Dressed is collaboration that is very special.
	Living out life in a gleeful rage
	Innocence in this smile, tricks in another
	The sweetness of the slaughter upon the lips
	The second-hand silk is only a tease
2	Closing Time
	Another time, another place,
	you’d become not just another face
3	Making My Way
	Walking round and round that house of tells
	Your voice comes calling out in the dark
	Heard you sayin’ it’d be right for this old heart
4	From The Stars
	Long before there was sin
	Way out where the souls begin
	Came a song in a whisper
5	We Have One Now
	Happens once and a while, only for one man smile
	An angel face, melting eyes, her sweet breathy sighs
	Dropping in to talk, lingering on a walk
6	Edge Walking
	Waking to another day, already on the knife
	Always at the ready, keep staying honed
	Lookin’ round, it all appears the same as yesterday
7	Realize It’s Over
	It’s about taking time to take time
	There just hasn’t been much at all
	Call comes in on the telephone line
8	On That Jersey Shore
	Started out like any other day
	Woke up with the waves calling
	Wanted to just lie there numb
9	If You Dare
	Once in a time
	that was better than anything in your mind
	Not so strange
	in a world where love’s made such a change
10	Red Rose Among The Trees
	Know this being all alone to well
	Staying late, never going home
	Seeing others close, sticks and stones
	Hands in hands, hands in my pockets
11	Baby Be Mine
	She’s colder than northern winds
	She’s hotter than original sins
	Gonna be there and bide my time
	Do right and make that girl mine
12	Now Begins Forever
	We’ve been going round and round
	exchanging our half smiles
	having all those conversations
	where we won’t let them the end
13	Counter Cutie
	Climbs herself up on that chair, gives up a little high thigh
	Overtly lets them legs cross, grey skirt makes a swift shift
	Uncrossing them, a small curvy push, tilting back the cool stool
14	Nella Notte Cieca
	Believing with all her heart someday it’ll come true
	Letting the living lie slide on out the way it came
	Inside where she hides from herself and the pain
15	Angel Beach
	We were just walkin’ along that beach
	Seeing the ripples, rise higher and higher
	Stopping to stare into that setting sun
16	Won’t You Tell Me
	Baby I got these thoughts going on
	Sitting all by myself at home
	Sitting here feeling all alone
17	Beach Bound
	Been working an all night day
	Now there’s time for a little fun
	Sun’s making its morning run
18	Departure Gate
	Fretting over it hour after hour
	Worrying about it night after night
	Feeling it fall week after week
	Been knowing it for months now
19	Train Of Thought
	Sitting on this sweltering city roof
	Far below people roaming around
	Sweating and swearing as they go
20	The Devil’s Fine Day
	He done went down from heaven
	The boy just up and shuffled off
	The Devil took himself a powder that day
21	Witness
	Looking for a little down time
	.     had to get myself away
	Monday morning glory
	.     wasn’t happening today
22	Crashing Down
	Day slides it’s way to the end
	Not looking forward to going home
	Turning in at that bend in the road
	Rather be making a long drive alone
23	Fallen Angel
	Newly fallen she wakes to a different world today
	And she’s never
	never been on her own before
	Went from home on the hill to a home on loan
24	In The Quiet Of The Night
	Half past midnight and finally free
	free from the demands of a clamoring world
	World moving so fast it’s hard to keep your feet
	feet feel like miles and the miles feel like hell
25	You No More
	Sometimes you just know
	just know you got no more
	no more love left to give
26	Girls Rite
	You hear them, it’s the shame every time
	They’ve all had it happen, been torn apart
	Now another one’s got the no romance blues
27	Falling Apart
	These days are almighty long
	the nights so lonely
	Giving the best for the cheque
	spending nights in hazy dread
28	Once Again
	Once again freedom’s crying
	ringing out while on the run
	It falls to the old ones
	those who long ago came of age
29	No More Yesterday’s
	There were those who’d gone ahead
	Learned the ropes and roads and dread
	Some came and shared their mind
	Others struggled and suffered and died
30	Everyone’s Girl
	Her days don’t begin before three
	Her nights spent in party grove
	Never seen the sun go down
	Seen it coming up so damn often
31	Lost And Found
	The times wearing me on down
	no time for any little thing
	Sprung from the trap you set
	gonna take the fast road back
32	Lake Side
	Day dreaming out on the rocks
	sun setting the lake ablaze
	all but gone the hostage daze
	letting down all the blocks
33	Haunting Her
	Unseen she stepped inside
	Know it’s her by the steps
	She stares straight ahead
	Her face kept firmly set
34	Once Bitten
	We were young and oh so cool
	Back when we were all fools
	Feelin’ our way around
35	Spinsters
	Stories making the rounds
	none to be believed
	none to be trusted
	careful not to get busted
36	Left Unsaid
	Whispers and rustles making the rounds
	Sighs and gasps the disbelieving sounds
	It’s between us, no one must, couldn’t ever be us
37	Were You Me
	Watching out the window on a cloudy day
	Caught up in all those billows shifting shapes
	Faces through my ages floating in grey space
	There’s so little that’s left out in front
38	Missing Day
	Up in the morning and the coffee’s on
	Sour dough toasting, golden for me
	A little cinnamon sugar reminds of you
	Not even seven and there’s the phone
39	Going Clean
	Whispers in the air
	Eyebrows raising up
	Pretending not to hear
	Taking in what’s said
40	If Only
	Walking on home alone,
	that old bell softly chimes
	Passing right on by,
	the tower bell strikes again
	Falling farther behind
	that niggling bell tolls once more
