SOMEWHERE SOMETIME (From the motion picture "Flattered") Words and music by Mike Petrone (BMI, Plan "C" Publishing) Copyright 2005. Somewhere sometime your lips and mine are gonna choose To be together for a while It's in the stars That shine in your eyes And in mine A constellation that we'll find Somewhere sometime Seems like our hands have decided they will hoid each other tight And i think our bodies do agree It'd be real nice to spend the night Somethings you know go way beyond your self control It's you and me it's destiny Somewhere sometime WENDY Words and music by Mike Petrone (BMI, Plan "C" Publishing) Copyright 2005. She will sit there waiting till the moments right Making sure to never catch his eye But everyone who's there knows that the game is on And both will sit there talking all night long Oh, you don't love her No, you should leave her Wendy, Wendy stay away from me Wendy, Wendy stay away from me Temting and pre-empting what he knows is right A skinny straw just gliding through her teeth her swinging leg that's brushing him so easily turning up the laughter and the heat Oh, you don't love her No, you should leave her Wendy, Wendy stay away from me Wendy, Wendy stay away from me (break) The bed is made the dice are cast, she rings the bell But when he sees her next it's a surprise Sitting at the bar with someone else's guy And using all those lines he knows so well Oh, you don't love her No, you should leave her Wendy, Wendy stay away from me Wendy, Wendy stay away from me WHEN I STARTED KISSING YOU Words and music by Mike Petrone (BMI, Plan "C" Publishing) Copyright 2005. You and I Into the darkness Hand in hand the stars surround us I had a dream and it came true When I startred kissing you Miles away From any problems No one sees No one bothers The clouds withdraw The moon shines through When I started kissing you Where did you come from ? I don't care Where are we going ? Anywhere Why did you take so long to find me ? Nevermind, just keep those arms around me. Don't forget your promise to me And I won't leave you Till they unglue me I found my favorite thing to do When I started kissing you BIG BOY Words and music by Mike Petrone (BMI, Plan "C" Publishing) Copyright 2005. He's a big boy now. With an appetite. For the pretty girls. And the barroom fight. And he don't do nothin. Of what his Momma says. And all the people say "wow!" He's a big boy now. He's a big boy now. With his muscle arms. And his swollen head. And the firearms. And you'd better not cross him. Cause he'll hit you "Pow". And all the people say "Wow!" He's a big boy now. (BREAK) He's a big boy now And he's angry too. Cause his gals been caught. With her lips on you. And he's lookin' to whoop you. Till you're black and blue You'd better run and how. He's a big boy now. COMBINE (From the motion picture "Hard Pill") Words and music by Mike Petrone (BMI, Plan "C" Publishing) Copyright 2005. We have it. I know it. You're scared and... So am I. But I don't worry cause I know we'll be just fine> Once, your lips and mine. Combine. We'll take it s,ow and easy. We'll walk before we run. We'll dance and talk this evening. Then we'll. Have fun. Tonight will Decide it. We'll pass or we will fail. But I don't worry cause i know we'll be just fine. Once, you're lips and mine. Combine. COME AWAY WITH ME Words and music by Mike Petrone (BMI, Plan "C" Publishing) Copyright 2005. We're going out on the town tonight Are you ready to take flight Cause the mood and the time is right We�re travelling on that road tonight With the summer breezes whispering Past the cars and the neon lights Come away with me, To secret hidden places That people want to find but miss the signs and faces we'll take the lesser roads and find the better spots Off the beaten path That everyone forgot We're travelling on that road right now We'll find a place somewhere somehow That's just for you and me Where no noe else will be We're on the road to something Who knows what it will be Won't you come away with me MAYBE SHE CAN FLY Words and music by Mike Petrone (BMI, Plan "C" Publishing) Copyright 2005. Ann is the kind who likes to dance. Usually by herself. She doesn't care at all what anyone will think. Watch her wave her arms. It's always something to be right. But maybe better to be wrong. Too young, too old to care. Too rich, too poor to mind. Too tired of everything but, Maybe she can fly. See the people stare at her. See they're all annoyed. But no one says a word and she would never stop. Watch her wave her arms. It's always something to be right. But maybe better to be wrong. Too young, too old to care. Too rich, too poor to mind. Too tired of everything but Maybe she can fly. Making waves where there is no water. Making wine though there are no grapes. Holding court over all her subjects. Taking off though she has no wings. Too young, too old to care. Too rich, too poor to mind. Too tired of everything but. Maybe she can fly. ONE SINGLE MOMENT Words and music by Mike Petrone (BMI, Plan "C" Publishing) Copyright 2005. It can happen so fast in the blink of an eye The flash of a light or the roll of the dice It heaven will open and luck starts to smile And everything changes if just for a while In just a moment, one single moment We'll find a now from a never In just a moment, one single moment She'll be in your arms a love forever There's no way to tell when the tides gonna turn Where the lightning will strike or the fuse starts to burn And life's suddenly different and your world's blown away And your eyes open up to a new kind of day In just a moment, one single moment We'll find a now from a never In just a moment, one single moment She'll be in your arms a love forever Who know where the road leads or what the future holds One tiny second and you've got it all And the earth will shake and the ground will break And you'll find the one In just a moment, one single moment We'll find a now from a never In just a moment, one single moment She'll be in your arms she'll be in your arms She'll be in your arms a love forever SHH...I'LL MEET YOU IN CLEVELAND Words and music by Mike Petrone (BMI, Plan "C" Publishing) Copyright 2005. Oh darlin, where could we go for just a few days. Where nobody knows us, a fine getaway. Someplace that's right for dreamin' if you get my meanin'. Oh, yeah. Pack your bags we're leavin' this evenin. Shh... I'll meet you in Cleveland. New York is too crazy. Boston's uptight. San Francisco's expensive, and Vegas ain't right. Miami's too hot and I'm sure I'm not goin' to Greenland. Oh, no. Pack your bags we're leavin' this evenin'. Shh... I'll meet you in Cleveland. They say it's cold so I'll keep you warm at night. They say it snows so the mood will be "oh, just right." They say it's funny so we'll keep it our little secret honey. Oh, yeah. The living is easy so we won't rush around. It's just a little city, like a big small town. And for just a few dollars we'll live like the crown prince of Sweden. Oh, yeah. Pack your bags we're leavin' this evenin'. Shh... I'll meet you in Cleveland. (BREAK) The people are friendly, the ladies are hot. The cocktail of choice... a beer and a shot. And it's never as stuffy as Paris or formal like old London, England, oh no. Pack your bags we're leavin' this evenin'. Shh... I'll meet you in Cleveland. STARS Words and music by Mike Petrone (BMI, Plan "C" Publishing) Copyright 2005. I sit alone at night and stare out of my window The cool wind blowing on my face And there is no one who is next to me this evening There's just a lot of empty space But there are stars, stars in the sky And out there somewhere I think somebody�s there Lookin' up feelin' down, hopin' I'll come around But now it's just my wish and all I have is stars in my eyes My thoughts can wander off when silence starts to get it�s voice and fills the room with heavy sound And i imagine someone gazing at the stars tonight Wondering who's up there who's around But there are stars, stars in the sky And out there somewhere I think somebody�s there Lookin' up feelin' down, hopin' I'll come around But now it's just my wish and all I have is stars in my eyes Is it me on my own No one else ever seems so alone Is there some great disguise To hide the stars in my eyes Lookin' up feelin' down, hopin' I'll come around But now it's just my wish and all I have is stars in my eyes |

SOMEWHERE BEFORE Words and music by Mike Petrone (BMI, Plan "C" Publishing) Copyright 2005. It's a very strange thing, but I have this feeling of opening some hidden door Cause I'm sure I remember, so much about you. Like an echo from somewhere before. Like I know you from somewhere before. There's something about you. Something familiar. The curve of your smile. The tone of your voice. And I'm sure that I know it, as well as my name. Like a tune I heard somewhere before. Like I know you from somewhere before. I guess it could be just a trick of the moment. A memory from the past rearranged. But maybe we we were friends a lifetime ago, and the feelings have not gone away. It's a wonderful thing to meet for the first time and feel like you may have found gold. Like a thing you remember that just makes you smile. Like a love you knew somewhere before. Like we've done all this somewhere before. (BREAK) I guess it could be just a trick of the moment. A memory from the past somehow changed. But maybe we were lovers in a different age, and the feelings have not gone away. It's a very odd thing, but I have this feeling of wanting to know even more. Cause I'm sure that I know you as well as my name. Like a love we had somewhere before. Like we've done all this somewhere before. TAKE MY HAND Music & lyrics : Mike Petrone Copyright 2006, BMI, Plan C Publishing) THAT MAGIC CHRISTMAS NIGHT (From the motion picture "Christmas at Maxwells") Words and music by Mike Petrone (BMI, Plan "C" Publishing) Copyright 2005. The street is a blanket white And candles all burn bright. Smiling faces all are home The fireplace and mistletoe. My hope is that the whole world knows This magic Christmas night. Little people tucked in bed. Silent wishes all are met. Dreams are sweet and spirits bright. And troubles all seem out of sight. My hope is that the world can find. This magic Christmas night. Falling snowflakes. Santa's sleigh. Hope and peace on earth that rings throughout the day. Memories great and small Of years you might recall. Friends and family old and new. Always there reminding you That love is real and dreams come true this mgic Christmas night. This Magic Christmas Night. You don't know me. I didn't know you. And we really had no reason to meet. But I'm lucky, though we probably won't meet again. Cause there's something good about you. Something in you that shines a light. You're important but what do you say. With only seconds till you go away ? Take my hand, for a moment. Take my hand, and hold it please. And feel the warmth of someone who. Sees the world in you. wants the world for you. Life is crazy. Always uncertain. Who'd have thought that I'd be standing here now. But I'm lucky for finding an angel like you. Cause there's something good about you. Something in you that shines a light. You're important but what do say ? With only seconds till you go away. Take my hand, for a moment. Take my hand and hold it please. And feel the warmth of someone who. Sees the world in you. Wants the world for you. You live so many days feeling alone and cold to people. But then, there you are the beacon the star. That inspires me. Take my hand, for a moment. Take my hand and hold it please. And feel the warmth of someone who thinks the world of you. Sees the world in you. Wants the world for you. THE BALLAD OF JOHNNY'S DOWNTOWN Words and music by Mike Petrone (BMI, Plan "C" Publishing) Copyright 2005. Down in the city, Frankfort and Sixth The valets are cool. They know that you'll tip The wood is all polished The price isn't cheap But there's no better place to drink or to eat Walkin'in there's a judge singing songs at the bar And there's a lawyer right next to you wherever you are In every city there's a joint where the deals go down Where I live that joint is Johnny's Downtown The heart of your city is a Johnny's downtown Painted men, painted ladies And sometimes a freak All the movers and shakers. The mob and police. Joe will cook it himself And of course charge you double For his finest champagne You pay by the bubble Cleveland Bob, Broadway George and the regular crew Fenton, Charlie, Big Sam, Terry and Sue Celebrities, ballplayers, politicians come through And the staff makes you feel at home They've all done time too So if you want to impress cause your boss is in town And your expense accounts primed up For throwing around Never fear cause the stories they don't get around Cause what happens here stays here At Johnny"s Downtown What happens here stays here at Johnny"s Downtown. |
