Cable car, flying high Passing stars or wondering why Did she go or did she die I don't know Mountainside, not so green Snow is more than ever seen Will she come back in a dream I don't know Thoughts of her reminding me of a time I couldn't see anything but you and me together Colored cloud, on you go to a land you may not know If you see her tell her I'm so alone verse 4 |

Standing on a corner Nothing on my mind When walked past a woman She looked my kind I said a hey there woman What you got to do She took one look at me and said baby I'd like to be with you Hold on Wait a minute woman I ain't the kind to phase And I ain't that kind of woman, baby So she says She led me to a dwellin' Just along the street The best part of town baby We gotta be discreet Hold on (Hold on) Break Got to the apartment Number six sixteen My, what a place it was Best I've ever seen She headed to the bedroom Came upon the door Wait a minute, darling While I slip into something cool I was getting excited One thing on mind When she rushed out of the bedroom Said You'd better hide She slowed me my movements He caught me by the door What was left on me, baby Was landing on the floor Hold On |

Sipping at the wine I'm drinking all the time I'm drinking kinda slow And I'm hoping it won't go See when I get dry I just sit and cry over my baby Seems that in the past It was gonna last Somewhere it went wrong All the good times gone But I don't know why So I sit and cry over my baby Well, now, yeah I thought that, I thought that If we could take it, we'd love each other so much We'd be sure to make it But oh baby oh my baby Look what we've got There's nothing at all Thinking of the bad times Stretched out on my bed Images of you, girl Running through my head Wish that I could die So I lay and cry over my baby verse 1 chorus Look what we've got There's nothing at all |

Next time I meet a girl, I won't ask her her name Or where she's been, or where she came from The last time I found love it only brought me pain The problems almost took me over I was washing up for mother, I was lighting pipes for papa And fetching water And that's got nothing at all, that's got nothing at all To do with love Next time I meet a girl I won't tell her my name Or where I've been Or where I came from I'll take a hold of her And love her just the same No need to mention past acquaintances I just want someone to love me And someone to like the presents That I bought her 'Cause that's got something to do Yes, that's got something to do To do with love Each girl I meet comes up wronger And I can't take it all much longer No, I can't no verse 3 verse 4 verse 5 |

Sailing on a summer breeze, going back to my island
Nearly done my time, my life will be mine once again The distant past so far behind and I hope there hasn't been many changes 'cos I haven't seen my island for such a long time Oh oh oh oh, I want to breathe the air that's free Oh oh oh oh, I want to feel the warm sand beneath my feet And the sun on my face, yeah Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Couldn't say goodbye through no fault of mine to my loved ones But sent a message through from my first port of call I was pressed into time by the men from the line They didn't tell me where I was going And I haven't seen my island in such a long time Oh oh oh oh, I've sailed upon the seven seas Oh oh oh oh, you wouldn't believe the things I've seen When I get home I'll tell you Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Couldn't say goodbye through no fault of mine to my loved ones But sent a message through from my first port of call I was pressed into time by the men from the line They didn't tell me where I was going And I haven't seen my island in such a long time Sailing on a summer breeze, going back to my island Nearly done my time, my life will be mine once again The distant past so far behind and I hope there hasn't been many changes 'cos I haven't seen my island for such a long time Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh |

I wasn't there (I wasn't there) When I was needed (I wasn't there) I was out on the road Playing with my rock and roll band (I wasn't there) I should have been right by her side Like a good man ought to be But this rock'n'roll music sure gotta hold on me I wasn't there (I wasn't there) When my shack was burning (I wasn't there) I was out on the road playing with my rock'n'roll band (I wasn't there) While someone else put out the fire I was wailing my guitar Somehow this rock'n'roll music sure got a hold on me Somewhere I know, I sold my soul Sold it to the devil or the king of rock'n'roll Once I found out, what the music was all about Picked up my baggage And I joined in a big rock show I knew that I had to go I wasn't there (I wasn't there) There for my wedding (I wasn't there) I was back on the road Playing with my rock and roll band (I wasn't there) But when I came off stage that night I found her waiting patiently, good girl She knows that rock'n'roll music sure got a hold Rock'n'roll music sure got a hold She knows that rock'n'roll music sure got a hold on me |

Evening, I see the sun Leaving today Cool night, mellow light Don't fade away Your eyes, paradise What do they say Leaving, loving Stay one more day And after all the tears have fallen my way You'd think that we could never feel the same Love is strange Pick up the pieces again Long time, friend of mine Words of farewell Love is, the learning I knew you well And after all the tears have fallen my way You'd think that we could never feel the same Love is strange Pick up the pieces again Pick up the pieces |

Take me home Sailing on with Romany To and fro on a icy morning Feeling calm to have an old friend 'round Feeling warm to see the wind blow down Take me home where saints and children laughing Tell the Dutchman ships are passing Feeling safe to reach the harbor sound Feeling warm to see the wind blow down Take me home Leave the galley sailors talking Leave the bridge and captain's walking Feeling naked on the covered ground Feeling warm to see the wind blow down The wind blowed down in the moonless light the sea was dark the breeze was light Everyone's thoughts were their own Caught by the ocean thief The bow hit on a coral reef Romany sank like a stone chorus verse 1 |

If I could make a wish
I think I'd pass Can't think of anything I need No cigarettes, no sleep No light, no sound Nothing to eat, no books to read Making love with you Has left me peaceful, warm, and tired What more could I ask? There's nothing left to be desired Peace came upon me, and it leaves me weak So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Peace came upon me, and it leaves me weak So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe |

Big tall man standing in the street
Gun hanging by his side Just one man that he'd like to meet That's when I began to hide I recognized him from the face of his son The hate in his eye didn't lie Oh what I did can't be undone Borrowed time there's none to buy Well I hid round the back of a derelict shack Ain't looking for a mad showdown But he was smart, he'd already checked A week in advance I'd paid down Well the hotel clerk was a fun-loving man The job he had it didn't pay He told all about what happened that night There he is, that's the one's all he'd say Well all the people were running, jumping, even thumping on my bad neighbours doors crying Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly Let me in I gotta hide Well everybody was crying, sighing Sam McGee's dying No one to protect our town Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly he's gonna shoot your sheriff down Big tall man standing in the street now a hand hovering waiting to slide Drew out his gun it wasn't for fun Let me in there's nowhere to hide Well I made my play but it wasn't my day I felt the ripping lead That's when I knew my time was through Rest in peace were the last words he said Well all the people were running, jumping, even thumping on my bad neighbours doors crying Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly Let me in I gotta hide Well everybody was crying, sighing Sam McGee's dying No one to protect our town Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly he's gonna shoot your sheriff down Well all the people were running, jumping, even thumping on my bad neighbours doors crying Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly Let me in I gotta hide Well everybody was crying, sighing Sam McGee's dying No one to protect our town Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly he's gonna shoot your sheriff down |

Ever since that first night
When I gave my love to you Everything seemed so right You are my sunlight shining through And I tried so not to let it show Yet it seems sad because I know No matter how hard I try No matter how hard I try There's always goodbye You smile softly as you leave my bed And I tightly hold your hand You lean down to kiss my head But there's nothing to be said And if you said you want to sing I know you'd soon be on your way No matter how hard we try No matter how hard we try There's always goodbye So here we stand, you and I You are too kind and I'm too shy To say what we really mean So we make life a masquerade Never showing all, only the parts we played No matter how hard we try No matter how hard we try There's always goodbye No matter how hard I try No matter how hard I try There's always goodbye There's always goodbye No matter how hard I try No matter how hard I try There's always goodbye There's always goodbye |

Standing in the shadow Of a Spanish lady Second hand bargain With a song so sad And a rose in her hand Was crying Lonely rooms in back of bars Bright lights and sitting out in the stars There was room to write a poem But the words don't come easy They're hung on frozen lips standing there While the world's anticipating love And the words don't come easy Lady laughs a laughing tear and says All we really need today Is the sun in our life The sun in our life Money was only mean to buy time No money left over Made the street to show that the door was open Out in the silence of the angry crowd Only the beggars crying aloud Not a precious thing was spoken But the words don't come easy They're hung on frozen lips standing there While the world's anticipating love And the words don't come easy Lady laughs a laughing tear and says All we really need today Is the sun in our life The sun in our life |

Standing by a riverside
A river so deep and so wide Current's too strong for only one man I know because I tried I got eight oars - four on either side Is there anybody with me Eight hands four willing hearts Won't someone answer my plea Well I got in the boat I stayed afloat Some way across I was tiring Well I need someone to help me to get to the other side Along came son of Alabama south He said "I heard you calling If you don't mind the colour of my skin I'll help you not to fall in" Then suddenly Joe from out of Tokyo "If my eyes don't make you nervous I used to handle a junk back home" Said 'Can I be of service' Well we got in the boat we stayed afloat Halfway across we were tiring We got to row this boat together to get to the other side Two more oars only one seat left One more person to lean on A brotherhood boat to a land called home with our share of freedom Got in the boat stayed afloat There's no need to be tiring We rowed this boat together Happiness meets the other side We rowed this boat together Happiness meets the other side We rowed this boat together Happiness meets the other side |

Head into the sun you ain't the only one
To miss the last train back to your life Head into the sun all that the night has done Will fade if you hang on really tight There's always reasons for runnin' down the road Every time it snows You know it's so easy to take the time to grow You know this flight is Heading into the sun riding a little bit higher We are one we are one Just begun song of the sun Head into the sun you ain't the only one To blow the first few bars of the tune Head into the sun all that the night has done Will fade if you move on really soon There's always reasons for puttin' on the wheels Every time it's real You know it's easy to get into the feel You know this flight is Heading into the sun Riding a little bit higher We are one we are one Just begun song of the sun There's always reasons for puttin' on the wheels Every time it's real You know it's so easy to get into the feel You know this flight is Heading into the sun Riding a little bit higher We are one we are one Just begun song of the sun |

(Clarke / Sylvester / Hicks)
I was jiving along in my big cadillac saw a thumb going up, I said Driver go back Played her a track from my latest LP Getting bad vibes she hadn't recognized me She said she didn't know me but my name's been in lights giant size neons on the strip every night The camera man did the best that he can Still she said I don't know you I just can't understand I'm a star, yeah I'm a star (Baby bathe in my glow) I'm a star, anyway I was trying to be nice but I'm not into that I usually make it without any chat She was taking it easy, taking it slow I said Come on baby, I'm ready to go I'm a star, yeah I'm a star (Baby bathe in my glow) I'm a star, anyway She said Drop me off here and to my surprise you wouldn't believe it, it was Beverly Drive Some sort of commotion, what's happening here We've arrived at her premiere, I shouldn't be here She's a star, yeah She's a star, I didn't know it She's a star anyway |

If I could make a wish
I think I'd pass Can't think of anything I need No cigarettes, no sleep No light, no sound Nothing to eat, no books to read Making love with you Has left me peaceful, warm, and tired What more could I ask? There's nothing left to be desired Peace came upon me, and it leaves me weak So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Peace came upon me, and it leaves me weak So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe |

Words that were spoken in the anger
of youth only half truth. Touched by the chilbride while deep inside her lie real truth. He was the passion of the spring he was the baby. And half forgotten in the passing of time. The real crime brother and brother with backs to each other the war sign. and in the passion of the spring came the baby. Come back mama mama sing him a song. Tell him all that was wrong tell him all that you had that was bad. Tell him all that was good mama. You know that you should mama remember the good mama. And with the light that you show let him grow let him go let him go let him go let him let him let him go. Words that were spoken in the anger of youth only half truth. Touched by the chilbride while deep inside her lie the real truth. He was the passion of spring he was the baby. He was the passion of the spring he was the baby. And in the passion of the spring came the baby. And in the passion of the spring came the baby. The baby yeah the baby yeah. |
