Baby every cloud has a silver lining
Baby every dog really has his day And it matters to me to see you smiling Why don't you blow all your cares away Yesterday is gone and will be forgotten And today is where every new day starts Got to be free as the leaves in the autumn You may be sad but it will never last. Chorus Mabye by the evening we'll be laughing Just wait and see all the changes there'll be By the time it gets dark |

Schooldays over, come on then John
Time to be getting your pit boots on On with your sack and your moleskin trousers Time you were on your way Time you were learning the pitman's job And earning a pitman's pay. Come on then Jim, it's time to go Time you were working down below Time to be handling a pick and shovel You start at the pits today Time to be learning the collier's job And earning a collier's pay. Come on then Dai, it's nearly light Time you were off to the anthracite The morning mist is on the valley It's time you were on your way Time you were learning the miner's job And earning a miner's pay Repeat First Verse |

I found your letter in my mailbox today
You were just checking if I was okay And if I miss you, well you know what they say Just once in a very blue moon Just once in a very blue moon Just once in a very blue moon And I feel one coming on soon No need to ask me if we can be friends And help me right back on my feet again And if I miss you, well just now and then Just once in a very blue moon Just once in a very blue moon Just once in a very blue moon And I feel one coming on soon There's a blue moon shining When I am reminded of all we've been through Such a blue moon shining Does it ever shine down on you? You act as if it doesn't hurt you at all Like I'm the only one who's getting up from a fall Don't you remember now don't you recall Just once in a very blue moon Just once in a very blue moon Just once in a very blue moon And I feel one coming on soon Just once in a very blue moon |

Farewell, farewell to you who would hear
You lonely travellers all The cold north winds will blow again The winding road does call. And will you never return to see Your bruised and beaten sons O I would, I would if welcome I were For they loathe me every one. And will you never cut the cloth Nor drink the light to be And can you never swear a year To anyone but he. No I will never cut the cloth Nor drink the light to be But I'll swear a year to he who lies Asleep alongside of me. Repeat First Verse |

I cannot stop this child from touching me
I see not fault in watching her bloom She knows where fire begins and where sparks might fly Yet I feel she may be consumed. She done turns on the B stage She shook hands when the shoe fit I wanna know how the land lies I'll let you in on a secret. I did not steal away when love rode by I did not let myself be unkind It's so heard to say where love meets lust I often think I'm losing my mind. I trade notes with the press league They send back their suggestions I wanna know where I come from But all I get are directions. Chorus I can't get started, can't get pain What's wrong? Big ideas, the find intentions They're all gone It takes two flagons of courage Pounds, shillings and pence You wind up going nowhere It doesn't make sense. I see my brother's face grow dark with care I spend my time avoiding his gaze I pray that God might make his dreams come true I'd give so much to feel he's been saved. A bright spark in the playground Dead loss as an anchor You don't call him a misfit He's just stuck for an answer. Chorus (2) |

Tumbling curls of green by stainglass streaming light
And a yellow coloured lampshade used to keep us up all night And the smile upon her face, the tears upon your cheek And the night sky on the window Your heart calling out to me. Chorus Come running home again, Katie Come running home again Cross my heart and hope to die Shall I cause another tear from your eye The mirror that won't talk and your nightgown on the door And the old pedal Singer just don't sing no more You can roll the reels for hours From the movie of this book It's a question mark on this heart of mine sends an elder back to look. Chorus Now I'm looking through a tunnel Back into the room With the genius of a druid when the sunlight floods the tomb And I'm never going back there, and I couldn't anyway 'Cause though I made the great escape I never got away.

It's time to go, Jenny
No need to close the door What if the dust gets in the house It doesn't matter any more You and the dust have been at war for far too many years Now the war is over Jenny dear. Chorus Leaving the land Leaving the land Leaving all I've ever been and everything I am Leaving the land. Remember when I brought you here Those long bright years ago For all that time you've been my heart And this land has been my soul The long bright days are over now but still the heart beats on But Jenny dear the soul is gone. Chorus I't time to go, Jenny Drive quickly down the track We'll never see what lies ahead if we keep on looking back Behind is just an empty house Old memories and ghosts And our small dream gathering dust.

There is a time in life it seems
For believing in dreams, for me it's gone And though I realize today Dreams are empty anyway, I still feel wronged. Chorus I felt cheated when you went away But not as defeated as I felt the day You came back and we found so little to say. There is a time in life I know When we all must outgrow young ideals And the wisdom that we gain Is paid for with the pain I now feel. Chorus There is a time in life it seems For believing in dreams for me it's gone. |

First when I came to the town
They called me young and bonny Now they've changed my name Called me the Leaboy's honey. I'll dye my petticoats red And I'll face them with a yellow I'll tell the dyester lads That the Leaboys I've to follow. It's over hills and dales And over dykes and ditches Say will I like the lad Who wears the moleskin breeches The black horse draws the cart And he's as proud as any Say will I like the lad That drives them on so canny Feather beds are fine And painted rooms are bonny But I would leave them all To jog away with Johnny Oh, for Saturday night It's I that'll see my dearie He'll come whistlin' in When I am tired and weary. First when I came to the town They called me proud and saucy Now they've changed my name Called me the Leaboy's lassie. |

We don't always live in harmony
And often there are times when we are enemies I fight with you, and you fight with me Trying to get the balance right. Sometimes we cause each other pain Sometimes our wills are not the same And often we tire of the strain Trying to get the balance right. Chorus Like a circus pair Hight up in the air Working on their act We need that kind of pact High above the ring Watch them balancing See how they unite We too can get it right. We don't always seem to get along And one of us often acts too strong Sometimes we find we're goin' wrong Trying to get the balance right. Chorus We don't always live in harmony And often there are times when we are enemies But I love you and you love me When we get the balance right When we get the balance right We can get the balance right. |

Moon River, wider than a mile
I'm crossin' you in style someday~ Oh dreammaker, you heartbreaker, Wherever you're goin', I'm goin'your way~ Two drifters, off to see the world. There's such a lot of world to see~ We're after the same rainbow's end, Waitin' round the bend, My huckleberry friend, Moon River and me. |
