YOU WON'T FIND ME
(Music by Jamie Beckett/Lyrics by Jamie Beckett and Michael Mazzarella)
It’s another sleepless night
You kept me waiting too long this time
Plenty of restless nights
You will be spending alone
Now you went too far
I won’t be swallowing my pride anymore
Yeah, you took me for a ride
And before you hurt me anymore I’ll be walking
And you won’t find me
Well, you’d better stay out of sight
Too many people who may be right
Are talking about you now
Saying things you wouldn’t want heard around
No I won’t be swallowing my pride anymore
Yeah, you took me for a ride
And before you hurt me anymore I’ll be walking
And you won’t find me
No you won’t find me
Well, I can see a day
When you turn your back on wasted time, yeah
So much thrown away
And you’ll wish that you could still be mine
Whoa, I won’t be swallowing my pride anymore
Yeah, you took me for a ride
And before you hurt me anymore I’ll be walking
And you won’t find me
No you won’t find me
And you won’t find me
Now you won’t find me

BETTER START NOW
(Thomas J. Bittel)
You say you wanna meet her, and try something new
You better start now, better start now
You say you wanna see her, I say if you do
You better start now, better start now
Cuz' I've been looking too and I think she's just right for me
So if you're gonna make your move, then
You better start now, you better start now
This girl's got something special, too special for you
You better start now, better start now
Yeah, I know she's something special, cuz' I want her, too
You better start now, better start now
Oh, I'd be with her right now, but my heart's not free
But when it is, you better watch out
Cuz' she'll belong to me
You say you wanna meet her, I want you to know
You better start now, better start now
You say you wanna see her, don't take it too slow
You better start now, better start now

PLAY THAT SONG AGAIN
(Jamie Beckett)
I’ve been trying all night to get it, on my dial
I can’t get no rest
I’m trying to find the song I heard last night
With my baby it’s the best
I’ve heard that song a thousand times
Could you play it again for me
Right now
I want to hear that song that makes me jump right up
And shout out loud
Hey Mister would you play that song again
Hey Mister would you play that song again
When I hear it on the radio, it makes me feel so good
Hey Mister would you play that song again
I try so hard I do my best to get
Through to you
Long distance operator please get me someone
At the station
I’ve got to hear that song
I can’t be hanging on the line
I’ve got to go out soon
So please I’m running out of time
CHORUS
Oh me, oh my, what’s the matter with me
Why don’t I think
Oh, operator break that line
This is an emergency
I’ve got to hear my dedication
On the airwaves soon
If I don’t, only heaven knows
What this poor boy might do
CHORUS

WHILE YOU WERE HAVING FUN
(Michael Mazzarella)
Talk to me, you never ever even talk to me
Secrecy has branded me beyond recovery
Lie to me, you're very, very quick to lie to me
Honesty was never present in our history
In a heartbeat you would lose me
Kiss and run just to confuse me
And, you know it's working for you
While you were having fun, my heart was on the run
And I don't know where I stand
While you were having fun, my heart was on the run
And I don't know what to do
Fallacy, a love affair that makes no sense to me
You and me, soap-opera simpletons for all to see
You're a lover and a fighter
Both worlds often collide with the odd man out which happens to be me
CHORUS
Mock at me, your people revel in our comedy
Socially, you think you're just one step ahead of me
Because I am not a man who's been around the world and back
You won't sail in our sinking ship
CHORUS
While you were having fun
You didn't want me baby
While you were having fun
I hadn't a clue baby
While you were having fun
And you don't mean maybe

WHEN I SEE YOU LOOKING MY WAY
(Michael Mazzarella)
You are doing nothing for my mental state of mind
When I see you looking my way, catch you looking my way
I get so excited and I'd love to have you near
But reality takes over, reality takes over
'Cause I'm going out with her
And she thinks I'm home alone
Instead I'm at the pub
She would break my every bone
So I'll take a chance and hope she never finds out where I am
And I'd really like to hold you, yes I'd like to hold you
Maybe we can get together and make everything worthwhile
And I'd like to take your number, love to take your number
But I'm going out with her
And she thinks I'm home alone
Instead I'm at the pub
She would break my every bone

Just Love Ya’ (Bittel)

JUST LOVE YA’
(Thomas J. Bittel)
What can I say when you ask me how I feel?
What is only imagined and what is real?
Simple, I say, look me in the eyes and you'll see
I just love ya', and that's the way I want it to be
What are you thinking, that you won't let out?
Talk to me, baby, I really care what it's about
Good news or bad, I want you to tell it to me
I just love ya', whether you're mine or you're free
My love for you is so uncomplicated
But it runs so deep that I can't hide
In-depth analyses are overrated
Sometimes you think too much
Let's not wander too far off the track
I'd really hate to think that we can't get back
Complicating matters doesn't agree
I just love ya', and that's the way I want it to be

TUESDAY EVENING GIRL
(Michael Mazzarella)
She keeps me waiting
Me, I keep pacing
It's so frustrating, yeah
So dinner's over
She never phoned me
Wait, it's not the proper day
I look - can't find her number
Call the operator
She says "No such listing" oh
Check The Morning Times
The ad, page 29
It read "Call Tuesday anytime"
She's a Tuesday evening girl
And she's from a different world
She's a Tuesday evening girl
Waste the night away
It's been a slow Monday
I wish there was another way
Can't wait until tomorrow
Pick up the telephone
Don't care what the papers say
CHORUS
If she answers what to say?
Because I know it's not Tuesday
Will she tell me to go away?
Ring, I hear it ringing
Pound, my heart starts beating
Voice, just a recording, no
I try to pay attention
But, a bad connection
Although, I hear the words she said
I'm a Tuesday evening girl
And I'm from a different world
I'm a Tuesday evening girl
She is a Tuesday evening girl

Don’t Go (Beckett)

DON'T GO
(Jamie Beckett)
Tell me what have you done since I went away
You said you’d go, but you wanted to stay
Who was the man with the rough voice
Who answered your telephone
When I called you up and you weren’t alone
You said you’d wait
You didn’t wait
And I believed in you for so long
It’s the same
Every day
Now you haunt my memories and my thoughts
You were the woman for me
More than anyone I’ve ever known
While I was holding you close
You were letting me go
It’s happened before
It may happen again
No you never can tell
It could happen to you
And it probably will
You said you’d wait
You didn’t wait
And I believed in you for so long
It’s the same
Every day
Now you haunt my memories and my thoughts
Women all over the world you listen
You don’t know what you might be missing
Don’t go
Women all over the world you listen
You don’t know what you might be missing
Don’t go
Women all over the world you listen
You don’t know what you might be missing

I'M THE ONE WHO LOVES YOU
(Thomas J. Bittel)
Why do you say all those things that you say?
Why do you pick me up and push me away?
When I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one who loves you
Why do you hang around with all of those boys?
I'm getting sick and tired of all of this noise
When I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one who loves you
If you'd take a look I know you'd see, that you still love me
I call your number on the telephone
But every time I do, you're never alone
But I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one who loves you
I see your car coming down the street
With someone different in the driver's seat
But I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one who loves you
If you'd take a look I know you'd see, that you still love me
You treat me bad, yeah you treat me unkind
Some day you're gonna drive me out of my mind
I look at you and I just gotta say
What makes me want to stay around this way?
Don't be a fool, with your foolin' around
Cuz' what you want, you know you've already found
Cuz' I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one who loves you
If you'd take a look I know you'd see, that you still love me
