I'm The One (1972) is Annette Peacock's debut studio album. She wrote all the lyrics, except for Love Me Tender, a song made famous by Elvis Presley and credited to Vera Matson.
A special thanks to Alain for sharing the booklet with the lyrics.
I'm the one.
You don't have
to look any further.
I'm the one.
I'm here,
right here for you.
One. One. One. One.
Getting
& giving -
I'm the one.
I looked
all over.
Put my head on
somebody's shoulder
& there is
no one else.
Can't you
see it my eyes?
Can't you
hear it in my voice?
Can't you
feel it in my skin,
when you're buried
deep within me?
I'm the one
for you.

7 DAYS
It's been 7 days
since you've been gone.
7 days
that took too long.
It's been 7
days & lonely nights.
Oh won't you please
come
home?
7 nights that I've slept
alone.
7 nights
that felt all wrong.
It's been 7
days & lonely nights.
Yes it has - so
won't you please
come home?
I feel a loss
every time that
you are gone
& it's a toss
whether I'll survive
that long.
& though
the pain
makes me wanna
stop,
oh yes it
does,
won't you please
come
home?

PONY
I love my pony.
I call his name
he comes a runnin'
& I grab his mane.
We fly away
in coloured dreams
& I start expanding till I
bust my seems.
I don't ask questions.
I just enjoy.
Lose
my body,
I enjoy my toy
& I know how to
ride him.
Did you know that
he's got a mane so
thick & black
& I love the way my legs
wrap around his back.
I really love his haunches
their fine & strong
& when I
touch them, it doesn't
take very long.
I got him
eatin' out of my
hand.
I'll never,
never tease him. I won't
reprimand.
I'll always please him -
I'm satin, sand.
(Yes I am now.)
It makes me happy
to see you smile,
cause that's my nature,
I'm so domicile.
& after we've
been together awhile
I always, always feel
like we've been
travelin' for miles.
I wanna thank you.
Thank you,
thank you,
thank you,
thank you,
thank you.
Baby you taught me how
to lose my body
so take a bow.
I think you're beautiful
& I'm in love with you.
***
BEEN AND GONE
You were the only
love that I had ever known.
You were the
only love I'd ever had.
And I looked at you
one night
as you were lying still.
And I realized
my love had
been & gone.
***
BLOOD
Feel the pain.
Watch it slip away.
Baby are you sorry
you're losing,
and do you love
do you love your blood?
Send me none
of your promises.
Keeping the sorrow.
Hold it tighter
tomorrow, & you'll
be out for blood !
***
ONE WAY
I tried to love you,
but you wouldn't
let me.
I tried to know you,
but you couldn't
trust me
& I wanted you.
I wanted to help you grow,
let you know,
just how it feels
to need
someone.
& I need you so much.
Did you know that I
ache inside?
Baby
& when I look at you,
I just open wide.
Way down deep inside.
& it feels so good
when I look at you.
& I need you so much
I can't sleep at noight.
Thinkin'
about
how when I'm with you -
I just burn & glow,
till we
both let go.
& it feels so good
when I look at you.
Why can't you love me
the way
that I love you?
Baby don't you know
how I feel?
It's only you who can
make my dreams
real.
***
LOVE ME TENDER
Love me tender,
love me sweet
never let me go.
You have made
my life complete
and I love you so.
Love me tender,
love me true
all my dreams
fulfilled.
For my darling
I love you
and I always will.
Love me tender,
love me long
take me
to your heart.
For it's there
that I belong &
we'll never part.

GESTURE WITHOUT PLOT
Here I am dreaming by myself
Captured by a point in time
Visioned by prisms in my eyes
& I seem to wonder what went wrong
I had a dream it didn't last too long
And the voices keep saying
Did you know that it's all changing
Fly, and the goat keeps eating caring not at all,
The fear is that you might fall.
