All About Love
by M. West
If it's about time, it's about space
If it's about your mind, it's about your face
If it's about what I want to do with you when I get a chance to
Then it's all, it's all about love.
If it's about cause, it's about effects
If it's about yours, yeah it's about sex
If it's about an animal attraction, it's about a chain reaction
Then it's all, it's all about love.
If it's about guilt, if it's about what's real
Ii it's about what I've felt and what I wanna feel
If it's about obsession and desire that burn me like the fire
Then it's all, it's all about
Then it's all, it's all about
Then it's all, it's all about love.
It's all about love

Beautiful People
by M. West
You are (you are)...
You are (you are)...
You are (you are) beautiful people
You've been so beautiful since your birth
You are (you are) beautiful people
You'll never know just what you're worth
Blessed are the teachers guiding our youth,
Handle with care for blessed is truth.
And the peacekeepers holding the line
Nothing to win but still they keep tryin'.
You are (you are) beautiful people
You are the very salt of the earth
You are (you are) beautiful people
You'll never know just what you're worth
Blessed are the dreamers singing their songs
Dreaming that maybe one day we'll all get along
Blessed are the hungry, blessed are the lost
Blessed are the ones who help no matter the cost
You are (you are) beautiful people
In all your sadness and your mirth
You are (you are) beautiful people
You'll never know just what you're worth
Blessed are the dancers, blessed is the dance
Blessed are the lonely ones who only want romance
Blessed are believers, trying to get it right
Blessed is the resistance for fighting the good fight!
You are (you are)
You are (you are)
You are (you are) beautiful people
Beautiful in your deeds and words
You are (you are) beautiful people
You'll never know just what you're worth
You are (you are) beautiful people

Last Person
by M. West
You're the last person that I ever expected to hear from
You're the last person that I ever expected to call
But I'd love to talk to you, maybe see you after all.
You're the last person that I ever expected to admire
You're the last person that I ever expected to desire
Just keep doing what you do you'll set my heart on fire.
You're the last person that I ever expected to love
You're the last person that I ever expected to love
But since I have found you, I just can't get enough.
You're the last person that I ever expected to dump
You're the last person from whom I ever thought I would run
But I wouldn't come back to you even if you were the last person.

My House
by M. West
Come to my house
It's not a palace but it's there for you.
Come to my house
Escape the malice that's been wearing you....
Down through the ages,
Throughout the history of man,
When a battle rages
There have been people who'll lend a hand...
Come to my house.
Come to my home
Sit in the garden, we can talk with my wife.
Come to my home
About the vast intricacies of life.
No quid pro quo
I won't ask for a thing in return,
I want you to know
I can not sit still and watch you burn
Come to my house.
Everybody needs...some help sometimes
When it's been me...I've wanted to cry
So listen up please...when I tell you I
Want you to come, I want you to come to my house!
Come to my house
My sanctuary, and can be yours
Come to my house
You're always welcome, you won't have to implore.
We'll always make space
Don't ever think you'll be in the way
I've been in that place
Where you wish that somebody would say...
Come to my house.

Swimming Upstream
by M. West
In a swirling atmosphere you take what you're given
And all you can do is hope
That your blood, sweat and tears will make you a living
Or give you enough rope
When the clouds overhead that seem so dark and gray
Are gonna pass in their own good time
And the crowds that you dread teem in the subway
And rip the rhythm from your rhyme...
(You know you're)
Swimming upstream, fighting the tide,
Running against the wind,
Swimming upstream, all day and night,
Seems like it'll never end,
You're swimming upstream.
In a messy marketplace you buy low and sell high
To keep one step ahead
But the map on your face refuses to tell why
You're not already dead
And the pool of tears that passes for laughter
Conceals your deepest fear
That the cruel persevere and long endure after
We're no longer here...
(Because we're)
Swimming upstream, rolling the stone,
Never summitting,
Swimming upstream, feeling alone,
When it goes plummeting,
You're swimming upstream.
In a stubborn traffic jam you gird up for gridlock
And fight to keep your place
You go nowhere fast and hear your engine knock
The unremitting pace
Your thoughts drift away to the place in your mind where
You have things in control
But within the rat race, you're lost in the maze, there's
No grace in feeling old.
(And)
Swimming upstream, playing a part,
Reciting all the lines,
Swimming upstream, hiding your heart,
And falling behind,
You're swimming upstream.
