Lyrics by Jon Cooksey
Performed by Mackenzie Phillips
Demons come from every side
In the darkness is light
Out of the shadows of my life
In the darkness is light
In the darkness is light
Surrender will win the fight
This girl's walked on fire and ice
But I come out on the other side of paradise!
Paradise!

Lyrics by Jon Cooksey
Performed by Mackenzie Phillips
Dear party of the first part
It’s time to draw the line
It’s time to make the list and
Divide up the broken heart
Dear mother of my daughter
Dear father of my son
It’s time to face the problem and
Find the proper dissolution
‘Cause this is the New Math
This is the New Math
We didn’t add up
So now we’ve got to decide
This is the New Math
This is the New Math
Still I think it’s a shame
How we multiply and divide
Dear children of our union
It’s time to have the talk
This may get hard to follow
You’d better get some chalk
We’ll put it on the blackboard
Husband minus wife
Sorry you had to learn so young
There’s math in real life
‘Cause this is the New Math
This is the New Math
We didn’t add up
So now we’ve got to take sides
This is the New Math
This is the New Math
Still I think it’s a shame
How we multiply and divide
Don’t worry
It’ll be okay
Even though I won’t see you every day
Mommy still loves you
Daddy still loves you
Instead of one home now you’ll have two
Dear holder of my dreams
Do you recall our honeymoon?
I really meant forever but
Forever came too soon
It’s easy to divide up two
There’s nothing to explain
We end up back with me and you
Equal shares of pain
But when you divide a family
Something still remains
It never comes out even
Something still remains
‘Cause this is the New Math
This is the New Math
Any answer’s all right
If it’s justified
This is the New Math
This is the New Math
Still I think it’s a shame
How we multiply and divide

Lyrics by Jon Cooksey
Performed by Mackenzie Phillips
There’s a low rock wall
By the cliffs of Mohàr
Runs from down on the ground
Right up through the sea air
As a child I would climb
To the top of those stairs
And wish on the fog
I was anywhere else
The farms and the valleys
Are ringed with the stones
Of the men who built walls
So’s to be more alone
All that’s left of them now
Are their fears and their bones
But the rocks they pulled up
Were all I’ve ever known
The Rock fought my spirit
The Rock fed my anger
The Rock broke my heart
Like the waves of the sea
I tried hard to fight
But it still grew inside me
This island
My Ireland
The Rock is in me
<heee heee heeeee>
Hard was the ground
In which this child grew
Unforgiving and cold
Was the home that I knew
But knowing the soil
Holds no harbor for you
Makes pulling up roots
That much easier to do
Set sail!
Young pilgrims
Set sail to a new land
Set sail!
Our future
Is out there to find
Goodbye Ma
Goodbye Da
The Rock fought my spirit
The Rock fed my anger
The Rock broke my heart
Like the waves of the sea
I tried hard to fight
But it still grew inside me
This island
My Ireland
The Rock is in me
Now it’s been years
Since I’ve been in that place
And the winds of my life
Have all weathered my face
But it’s only with distance
And the coming of grace
That I see in you beauty
I could never replace
The Rock forged my spirit
The Rock was my anchor
The Rock held me fast
Through the storms of my youth
Now you’ll never die
‘Cause you live on inside me
Illin sha

Lyrics by Jon Cooksey
Performed by Mackenzie Phillips
Rebecca moves across the world
She’s a scirocco on the sand
She is the Nile that flows forever
Cutting a wound across the land
She’ll be your friend before you know her
She’ll have your trust before it’s earned
But like any nomad she will wander
Breaking the hearts of all concerned
History clouds what we remember
The one you wanted her to be
Mystery shrouds her like an island
But it’s an island in a lonely sea
Oh, Rebecca
Oh, Rebecca
I was thirteen going on forty
Wasting my summer on the beach
Burned on the outside, raw in the middle
That Molly’s just too hard to reach
But Rebecca moved in, she moved me
The best friend I’d ever had
And then one day she went away
Didn’t think I’d ever feel that bad
Where did you go?
Why did you lie?
Why did you leave without saying goodbye?
How ‘bout the promise
That you made me?
Was it really so easy to trade me
For another town
Another friend
Another beginning without any end…
So many times I would’ve called you
If I’d had your number in my hand
You were the one I would’ve turned to
When things didn’t go the way I’d planned
I never got a chance to tell you
Things didn’t go the way I’d planned...
History clouds what I remember
The one I wanted her to be
Mystery shrouds her like an island
Does she still remember me?
My life is like a turnstile
So many strangers passing through
There’ve been more than I can number
But I still remember you
Oh, Rebecca
Oh, Rebecca
The years move slowly by Lorena,
The frost is on the grass again;
And what we might have been, Lorena,
Uh huh.....ma da da dee da dumm

Lyrics by Jon Cooksey
Performed by Mackenzie Phillips
There’s a motel in Texas
Hard bed under wide blue sky
I had a dream there
But morning came too soon
I rolled over
I said it out loud
I said give me one moment
Just one more moment
To finish this dream
I wanna be
More like a river
And less like a wall
Not try to hold back these feelings at all
Cause when I miss you
When I’m dying to kiss you
I need to let that flow
More like a river
There’s a house in the mountains
Filled with bits of me and you
I had a dream there
But morning came too soon
I’ve been holding on
It’s been holding me back
I don’t want to give in
I know what you’d say to me
Finish this dream
Can I be
More like a river
And less like a wall
Not try to hold back these feelings at all
Cause when I miss you
When I’m dying to kiss you
I need to let that flow
More like a river
Cause in the morning
There are kids and dogs
And bills and sunlight
And a new day
And a new day
And another new day...without you
Music by Mark Scott & Jeff C. Neill
Lyrics by Jon Cooksey
Performed by Mackenzie Phillips
These nights I just can’t sleep
These walls are paper thin
I just can’t take the heat
Something is trying to get in
It hit me
Hit me hit me hit me
I ain’t gonna bend no more
One day I’m bound to break
You stripped me down to my core
That’s all that I can take
I been folding myself
Yeah
I really sold myself
With no escape
I been folding myself
In little shapes
Trying to please
Trying to appease you
And ended up with ten thousand me’s
When you met me
You said I was ice
You said you were the one to thaw me
Now I’m too broke
To pay that price
The secret to love
The secret to love
The secret to love is not Origami
I been so many shapes
Since the day that I was born
From ugly duckling to swan
And now a unicorn
I been folding myself
Yeah
I really sold myself
With no escape
I been folding myself
In little shapes
Trying to compare
Trying to ensnare you
Till finally there was no-one there
When you met me
You said I was ice
You said you were the one to thaw me
Now I’m too broken
To pay that price
The secret to love
The secret to love
The secret to love is not Origami
Oh how I miss the exchange
Of electricity
And now it feels so strange
To expose the real me
Ain’t gonna fold myself
Just gonna behold myself
I really sold myself
Ain’t gonna fold myself no
The secret to love
The secret to love
The secret to love is not Origami
Technology is not the key
don't let them wire you and me
don't want to lose our humanity
so we'll just stick with simplicity
Touch the world
near and far
we're all one
with Star-Dot-Star!
Star-dot-star
links you and me
the future of technology
Star-dot-star
is all we be
global connectivity

Eleanor come and wipe my brow
Only you can soothe my fevered brow
Your tender touch is all that comforts me now
Auhh huh!
Eeee! Heee!
Ooo! Hooo, yeah!
Ooo! Hoo!
Auhh huh!
Ooo! Hooo, yeah!
Eleanor the devil’s near to my door
Soon he will be comin’ through that door
And when he gone I fear I’ll be no more
Auhh huh!
Eeee! Heee!
Ooo! Hooo, yeah!
Ooo! Hoo!
Auhh huh!
Ooo! Hooo, yeah!
Eleanor that devil tried to steal you away
He tried in vain to take your heart away
But his gold and silver could not make you betray
Auhh huh!
Eeee! Heee!
Ooo! Hooo, yeah!
Ooo! Hoo!
Auhh huh!
Ooo! Hooo, yeah!
Eleanor remember what I said
Don’t forget these last words that I said
He can’t have you so he aim to have my soul instead
Auhh huh!
Eeee! Heee!
Ooo! Hooo, yeah!
Ooo! Hoo!
Auhh huh!
Ooo! Hooo, yeah!
I will not strike back in anger
I will turn the other cheek
And if I die before I wake
Let the earth inherit the meek
Yes let the earth inherit the meek
Auhh huh!
Eeee! Heee!
Ooo! Hooo, yeah!
Ooo! Hoo!
Auhh huh!
Ooo! Hooo, yeah!
If this be the last leg of my race
If this night I finish out my race
Eleanor let me spend it lookin’ in your face
Auhh huh!
Eeee! Heee!
Ooo! Hooo, yeah!
Ooo! Hoo!

Ooo! Hooo, yeah!
Oh Eleanor tell them what’s mine is mine
Don’t let that devil take what’s rightly mine
And I will wait for you at the end of time

Deedle deedle deetle
Leet doo doo
Till
Deedle deedle deetle
Leet doo
Till
Deedle deedle deetle
Leet doo
Doo down
Hear that song on the radio
The one stuck in your head
It’s designed to seize your mind
You’ll sing it till you’re dead
It isn’t by your favorite band
It’s by a girl you’ll never know
But the next time you go shopping
She will tell you where to go, ‘cause
She sells!
She sells condos by the seashore
She sells!
She sells machines to wax the kitchen floor
She sells!
She sells to get a slice of that big pie
But in the end she sells her soul
Because she knows that’s what they want to buy
Doot doot doot til
Doot doot til
Doot doot doot down
She gave up chasing that hit single
Why should she work so hard
When she can write one catchy jingle
And buy a house with a back yard?
The suits fill up her fan club
The boardroom is her gig
Her music plays ten times a day
She must be really big!
She sells!
She sells condos by the seashore
She sells!
She sells the item you been looking for
She sells!
She sells to get a slice of that big pie
But in the end she sells her soul
Because she knows that’s what they want to buy
Doot doot doot til
Doot doot til
Doot doot doot down
Then she finds herself forgettin’
Why she started in the first place
Afternoons at the piano
Up on daddy’s knee
First a G, yeah, now an E
That’s the way, baby
Now it’s contracts
And royalties
And thirty second spots
Don’t make ‘em cry
Just make ‘em buy
And make ‘em buy a lot!
She sells!
She sells condos by the seashore
She sells!
She sells ointment for that open sore
She sells!
She sells to get a slice of that big pie
But she don’t wanna sell herself
And so it’s time to say goodbye!
Mint-flavored air pollution
Advanced internet solutions
She sells
She sells
She sells
She sells
goodbye!
goodbye!

Lyrics by Jon Cooksey
Performed by Mackenzie Phillips
Demons come from every side
In the darkness is the light
Pullin’ me on a downward slide
In the darkness is the light
Gettin’ HOT the deeper I go
In the darkness is the light
Into the darkness down below
In the darkness is the light
Now the ghosts come dancin’ by
In the darkness is the light
Outta the shadows of my life
In the darkness is the light
All of my losses, none of my wins
In the darkness is the light
Why do I have to face ‘em again?
In the darkness is the light
I live my life in one straight line
The future ahead and the past behind
Don’t wanna go back to yesterday
But I don’t know how long I can run this way
Yeah!
A jungle hung with tangled vines
In the darkness is the light
I’m tangled up in my own lines
In the darkness is the light
A creature in the darkness lies
In the darkness is the light
Why is it that he has my eyes?
In the darkness is the light
I’ve lived my life in one straight line
The future ahead and the past behind
Now I’ve hit a wall like I never knew
And they tell me that the only way out is through
Yeah! (or "the air!" - you decide!)
They say the truth will set me free - yeah
In the darkness is the light
Free to be down here on my knees - yeah
In the darkness is the light
But just when I thought I’d lost my sight
In the darkness is the light
Catch a glimpse of that beautiful light
In the darkness is the light
In the darkness is the light
Surrender will win the fight
This girl’s walked on fire and ice
But I come out on the other side of Paradise
Oh yeah Paradise
Yeah, yeah
My Paradise!
Is here with you
Is here with you baby
Paradise
Paradise
Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah
Paradise!

Lyrics by Jon Cooksey
Performed by Mackenzie Phillips and David Steele
She lives in one small room
Over the convenience store
She had big plans once
She doesn’t have them anymore
Got little diamonds in her ears
But she’s got coal in her eyes
It’s been night so long now
She doesn’t think the sun will rise
She asks
Is this all there is?
Won’t this ever end?
There must be a better place
Looking for another world
I’m not sure we should
I’m not sure salvation lies there
There is bad as well as good
Let us love each other now
As if this world
Is all there is
He wanted to believe
In the dreams he held so dear
He swam against the tide
But he was drowning in his fear
Out on the lost horizon
The goal kept shrinking down in size
It’s been night so long now
He doesn’t think the sun will rise
He says
This can’t be all there is
There must be something more
There must be a better place
Looking for another world
I’m not sure we should
I’m not sure salvation lies there
There is bad as well as good
Let us love each other now
As if this time
Is all there is
Lying here beside you
I wonder what will become of us
Of you and me
And all of us
So many dangers
So much at stake
I’m scared of what I cannot see, love
I am so scared
I’ll help you if I can
I believe I’ve got to try
We all have our parts to play
And I am playing mine
I don’t know about another world
What beyond this curtain lies
I know it’s been night a long time
But one day the sun will rise
Yes one day the sun will rise

Lyrics by Jon Cooksey
Performed by Mackenzie Phillips
It’s dark outside
And the baby’s asleep
You’re going for a ride
Why is it black?
What is this tingle on the back of my
neck?
It’s cold outside
And the fire’s burned out
You’re going for a ride
What is this dying ember?
What is it I’m trying to remember?
Don’t go
Don’t go
Walking down the sidewalk
In New York city snow
A stranger brushed against us
His face was all in shadow
A shiver ran right down my spine
I pulled your arm through mine
I shut my eyes but still could see
The night I’d whisper tenderly
Your breath is still on my lips
Your tears still on my cheek
Your touch is on my fingertips
Your voice still makes me weak
Even now
Even now
Gifts I will never give you
Lives I will never live with you
Words that will never be spoken
The moment I lose you
Love
Love
Love is broken
I didn’t want to love you
I didn’t want to go that deep
I didn’t want a dream come true
Just to lose it while I sleep
Every night I held you tight
Don’t take him from me now
Every day I’d wake and say
I got to keep him one more day
Thank you for this day
Oh thank you for this day
This is why I had to say
I love you every day
Gifts I will never give you
Lives I will never live with you
Words that will never be spoken
The moment I lose you
Love
Love
Love is broken
Walking down the hallway
Turning off the lights
There’s no need to wait up for you
It’s time to say goodnight
You know the day you go away
Then I’ll become a ghost
Doomed to walk the world without
The one I loved the most
The sun will never rise again
I won’t set eyes on you again
Your breath still on my lips
Your tears still on my cheek
Your touch is on my fingertips
Your voice still makes me weak
Even now
Even now
Gifts I will never give you
Lives I will never live with you
Words that will never be spoken
The moment I lose you
Love
Love
Love
