Something must be done
About my state of heart Woke with it this morning and now it's nearly dark I don't know what to do the blame must lie with you Chorus: Falling, falling, I'm falling for you. I'm falling, falling, falling and you're living in a glass jar Sitting in your place Inside your window draped in lace I feel my fingers scratch the pane I don't want to fall in love again My heart is in your hands A Prince in these love lands Something must be done about my state of heart The throne stands empty in the dawn lies empty in the dark My heart is in your hands Prince in these love lands Chorus |

I
City walls where the neon spits as it falls Two dark shadows fade in the night This is no place for love and in the park where the streetlight kisses the dark Silent waves and times they're own They'll have their own way now II In the nighttime neon sunset leaps out of the heart of the city streets To the pavement where the dancing girls go down to another world Where the bright lights always sine From the pale love and the painted face cheap disguises of another race Where the sweet life and the flowing wine makes me Light in my head Dan takes the trouble off my mind But I know that goes so far Chorus We could be like lovers too dancing in this frozen room Hold me, hold me, stand so close Take the time don't leave, don't leave me here there's danger III I heard the voices in the night, flashing in the hills The smell of burning on the wind We could be in danger from the strangers here inside From the glory in their lives And the passion in their eyes Chorus & repeat II |

The sheep's in the meadow
The cow's in the corn Now is the time for a child to be born You'll laugh at the moon and you'll cry for the sun And if it's a boy he'll carry a gun Sang the crow on the cradle And if it should be that this baby is a girl Never you mind if her hair doesn't curl With rings on her fingers and bells on her toes A shadow above her wherever she goes Sang the crow on the cradle The crow on the cradle The black on the white Somebody's baby, is born for a fight The crow on the cradle The white on the black Somebody's baby is not coming back Sang the crow on the cradle Sang the crow on the cradle Bring me my gun and I'll shoot that bird dead That's what your mother and father once said The crow on the cradle what can we do This is a thing I must leave up to you Sang the crow on the cradle Sang the crow on the cradle' |

I
Seems like the morning lights hereafter Can weigh much more than you can hold Somehow tomorrow's lines and laughter Can turn around and look so cold II And you can hang your head in sorrow The restless nights when troubles come And stand alone and face tomorrow And know not why but what has been undone Chorus How you gonna hold on to that greatest dream of all? How you gonna hold on when you need to fall? III I know it breaks your heart to wonder What it was he'd ever said or done There'll be no sleep amongst the thunder There'll be silence but no peace after he's gone Chorus & repeat III |

I
The water is wide, I can't cross o'er Ad neither have I wings to fly Give me a boat that can carry two And we shall row, my love and I II For love is gentle, and love is kind The sweetest flower when first it's new But love grows old and waxes cold And fades away like morning dew III There is a ship and she sails the sea She's loaded deep as deep can be But not as deep as the love I'm in I know now how I sink or swim Repeat II then I |

From the corner of my eye I see a tear rolling down
At the time I couldn't tell whose tear it was If it was mine I should be glad That I still function in this cage But if it's yours it only makes me more lost To see a tear rolling down To see a tear rolling down This is the last call for Ellis Island These are the last words I'm ever gonna hear you say So goodbye, babe Goodbye, babe. I hear sweethearts whisper their undying love Above the noise on the quay their voices rise They must have something so strong in the face of such change That they can promise and promise all night Oh, their undying love, hear their undying love This is the last call for Ellis Island These are the last words I'm ever gonna hear you say So goodbye, babe Goodbye, babe. Oh, what you wouldn't give to be down on the pier once again Far away from the cries of this war-weary horde Time up there in the clouds must be hard to endure When your heart's unsure It's like a knife in my gut knowing you're taking leave I feel I'm sentenced to a death without appeal I can pretend it's all a dream And what I'm seeing will disappear But the end I can see is all too real Knowing you're taking leave Knowing you're taking leave This is the last call for Ellis Island These are the last words I'm ever gonna hear you say So goodbye, babe Goodbye, babe |

I
Once in a while I can smile that old smile And I know I'm in trouble again Even though you get older that old tap on the shoulder Will turn you again and again Chorus I couldn't change it, I've never arranged it That's what the strange bit's always been II O give me the time and the sweet taste of wine And I'll tell you that story again Of the look in his eye long before all the lies and the parting began to begin Chorus III Strange thing this ol' love business Strange thing this ol' love Strange thing this love business Look what love has done to us IV O the making you cry and the saying good-bye And the whole damn thing is insane Even though you get older that old tap on the shoulder will turn you again and again Chorus & repeat III |

I know it's the same old song I'm singing
But this time these words are just for you That's the only thing that's new I know that I've sung about a million Borrowed lines and phrases from a few This one's till as good as new Without the fanfare I love you By day I move words around like flowers I deliver by the afternoon "Cause the piper calls the tune Today I made full use of the hours I explored the smallest avenue And that feeling still came through Without the fanfare I love you Sure I've lost my way sometimes But I've had to pay Sometimes I've gone completely overboard Moved a million phrases round, tried to make them leave the ground Still the only line that's soared Bidding all the rest Adieu Sounding still as good as new Without the fanfare I love you Hello, do I still have your attention? I forgot to mention thanks again from the captain and the crew And so without the sweet perfume or roses I hope you can still believe it's true Stripped of all that much ado Without the fanfare I love you Without the fanfare I love you |

As I leave behind Neidin
It's like purple splashed on green My soul is strangely fed Through the winding hills ahead And she plays a melody On wind and streams for me Chorus Won't you remember Won't you remember Won't you remember me Won't you remember Won't you remember Won't you remember me And we wind and climb and fall Like the greatest waltz of all Float across the floor Her sweet breath outside the door And it's time that I was gone Cross the silver tear Chorus As I leave behind Neidin In the hall where we have been Rhododendrons in her hair In the mountain scented air I still feel her spirit song Cross the silver tear Chorus |

I have written this song
For you to take with you When you go away Something to sing and slowly swing to On your colder days I have made a start With a verse and a Chorus The rest I leave to you And when next I see your smiling face We might sing it right through Chorus I'll be your sweetheart always And I'll love the memories of the Diamond Days I'll keep a candle burning 'Till we sing again the Diamond Days If the words don't rhyme Then I will forgive you That won't be the crime But the staring space Upon the page That might look like mine I have made a start With a verse and a Chorus The rest I'll leave to you And when next I see your smiling face We might sing it right through Chorus |

There is a lighthouse in the harbour
Giving guidance with its light But I have no one to turn to As I wander through life From the first time that I saw you Standing silent by the shore I know my search was over and I would look for love no more Chorus Deep in the waters of love I am falling Sinking like a stone Deep in my heart I can hear love calling Going once, going twice going gone There is a ship on the horizon Making its way against the wind and from the place where I stand watching I swear my ship is coming in Chorus |
