Let me tell you a story that'll make a change,
Let me tell you when I'm way out of range; It's about a man who's crueler than me, So promise not to cause a scene, Heaven help the one's you love, There's no big need for stars above Well, you can run, you, know he'll find you, It don't matter now, just look behind you, You had your warn, and you knew the score, You got it wrong, and that means war; So, why'd you have to treat me rough, Your explanation's not enough. Ain't nobody but me, Gonna lie for you, gonna die for you; Ain't no fish in the sea, Gonna sigh for you, gonna try for you, Gonna lie for you, gonna die for you, Wooh You see, I got a mental disposition, Sometimes, I'm mean, sometimes I'm vicious; I'm dr. jekyll, I'm mr. hyde, So if you want to stay alive, Just give me all you've got to give, And, then perhaps I'll let you live. Ain't nobody but me, Gonna lie for you, gonna die for you, Ain't no fish in the sea, Goin' sigh for you, gonna try for you, Goin' lie for you, gonna die for you; Goin' sigh for you, gonna try for you, Goin' lie for you, gonna die for you.- (Hush) now baby, stop your crying, (Oh yes) I know that I've been lying, (Hush) now baby, stop your crying (Oh yes) I know that I've been lying (Hush) now baby, stop your crying (Oh yes) I know that I've been lying (Hush) now baby, stop your crying (Oh yes) I know that I've been lying |

If there's no way of knowing where's the answer,
You should know if you need me by now, tell me how. You saw me in the first place, Who d'you think I am How can you be so two-faced And tell me where I stand Yeah, we've been here once before, I see you by the door, You said you knew and all were calling, Yeah, you know you just can't lose, All you have to do is choose, let me in on where your heart is. You ain't nothing but another man's woman, Living on another man's land; At night I hear a hound dog callin, A callin' me a cheatin' man. I tell you somethin', I need good lovin', but you don't understand, At night I see you cannonball comin' To blow me to the promised land. If there's no-way of showing where your love lies, Is it me?, is it him?, or no-one; What will be done? About the mess you made me, Oh don't you give a damn, You're gonna drive me crazy, It's more than I can stand, 'Round and 'round we always go First it's yes and then it's no, Oh whatever keeps me sane? I'm so helpless, can't you see? Did you cast a spell on me, Say you love me please, I'm praying |

Leave me out in the pouring rain With my back against the wall Don't leave me now Don't leave me now Leave me out with nowhere to go As the shadows start to fall Don't leave me now Don't leave me now Leave me out on this lonely road As the wind begins to howl Don't leave me now Don't leave me now All alone on this darkest night Feeling old and cold and grey Don't leave me now Don't leave me now Leave me holding an empty heart As the curtain starts to fall Don't leave me now Don't leave me now All alone in this crazy world When I'm old and cold and grey And time is gone |

Took a boat Sunday, down by the sea
It just felt so nice, you and me We didn't have a problem or a care And all around was silence, everywhere You are the reason I was born Be with you through all seasons I'll always hear you when you call We'll keep the love light shining Through each night and day A lonely life behind me Oh what a change you've made So down here on the ocean we will stay We will stay. We will stay. Went through a lot of changes Turned a lot of pages When I took a boat Sunday To know you as I know you now That is all I need And we will get along somehow If we both believe So down here on the ocean we will stay We will stay. We will stay. Went through a lot of changes Turned a lot of pages When I took a boat Sunday |

Even in the quietest moments
I wish I knew what I had to do And even though the sun is shining Well I feel the rain --- here it comes again, dear And even when you showed me My heart was out of tune For there's a shadow of doubt that's not letting me find you too soon The music that you gave me The language of my soul Oh Lord, I want to be with you. Won't you let me come in from the cold? Don't you let the sun fade away Don't you let the sun fade away Don't you let the sun be leaving Won't you come to me soon And even though the stars are listening And the ocean's deep, I just go to sleep And then I create a silent movie You become the star, is that what you are, dear? Your whisper tells a secret Your laughter brings me joy And a wonder of feeling I'm Nature's own little boy But still the tears keep falling They're raining from the sky Well there's a lot of me got to go under before I get high Don't you let the sun disappear Don't you let the sun disappear Don't you let the sun be leaving No, you can't be leaving my life Say that you won't be leaving my life Say that you won't be leaving my life Say won't you please, stay won't you please Say won't you please, stay won't you please Lord, won't you come and get into my life Lord, won't you come and get into my life Say won't you please, stay won't you please Say won't you please, stay won't you please Lord, don't go And even when the song is over Where have I been --- was it just a dream? And though your door is always open Where do I begin --- may I please come in, dear? |

When a spirit is broken
Why go on When there's nothing to say And a love just a token It was strong Now it's fading away Ah but I'm free as a bird As I walk right out that door You have my word I won't bother you no more Yes I'm doing alright As I face the lonely night And our love it was over Long ago But we just didn't say And the years they have fallen One by one How they drifted away Now I'm free as a bird As I walk right out that door You have my word I won't bother you no more Yes I'm feeling OK As I face the brand new day Yes I'm free as a bird... No more sorrow will I find I've got tomorrow on my side No more teardrops will I cry Left my teardrops way behind No more heartaches bother me Don't wear my heartaches on my sleeve It's gonna be a brand new story What's the use of former glory It's better not to do if you can't do right It's time to get to celebrating After all the years of waiting I'm gonna have a ball if it takes all night |

Monday has come around again
I'm in the same old place With the same old faces always watching me Who knows how long I'll have to stay Could be a hundred years Of sweat and tears At the rate that I get paid Sometimes I slowly drift away From all the dull routine That's with me every day A fantasy will come to me Diamonds are what I really need Think I'll rob a store, escape the law And live in Italy Lately my luck has been so bad You know the roulette wheel's A crooked deal I'm loosing all I had Soon be like a man that's on the run And live from day to day Never needing anyone Play hide and seek Throughout the week My life is full of romance Guess I'll always have to be Living in a fantasy That's the way it's got to be From now on You think I'm crazy I can see It's you for you, and me for me Living in a fantasy From now on |

It's just heartbreaking
I should have known that it would let me down It's just a mind aching I used to dream about this town It was a sight to see The place to be, Where the living is easy And the kicks can always be found It's such a shame about it I used to think that it would feel so good But who's to blame about it So many creeps in Hollywood I'm in this dumb motel Nea the 'Taco Bell' Without a hope in hell I can't believe that I'm still around Ain't nothin new in my life today Ain't nothing true it's all gone away I've had too much cryin', seen too much grief I'm sick of tryin' it's beyond belief I'm tired of talking on the telephone They're trying to tell me that they're not at home Ain't nothing new in my life today I'm tired of walking from place to place I've yet to come across a friendly face And now the words sound familiar, as them slam the door "You're not what we're looking for." Ain't nothing new in my life today Ain't nothing true it's all gone away If we only had time, only had time for you If we only had time, only had time for you If we only had time, only had time for you It was a heartbreaking Now I ride in the big fine car It was mind aching I'm the talk of the boulevard So keep your chin up boy Forget the pain I know you'll make it If you try again There's no use in quitting When the world is waiting for you |

Well don't you think you oughta? Be waiting a while, Are you acting, on what your heart has told you, Is nothing gonna' hold you, from flying away, a-ha Flying away a-ha, flying away.

Dream of nothing to do
Dream of nothing to say Guess I need something to dream about But Something keeps on moving away I said, land ho, will I be sailing forever? I need some wind to take me to my goal Land ho, will I be dreaming forever? I gotta find an anchor for my soul Once I thought I could see But now I feel I'm just blind For there's this Something that's calling me Something that is so hard to find I said, land ho, will I be sailing forever? I guess I feel my ship is getting old Land ho, will I be dreaming forever? I gotta find an anchor for my soul When you're alone, there's not a sail in sight There's a grey-lit sky and you may just try to take your life There once was a lady made me feel alright But she couldn't stay, she just sailed away Now there's only waves to see me through the night Maybe I'll always be sad And maybe there'll always be strife Drifting alone with a saddened tone Afloat in the ocean of life I said, land ho, a sailing ship gone forever I need some wind to take me to my goal Land ho, will I be searching forever? I gotta find an anchor for my soul Will I be sealing forever? Will I be dreaming forever? Will I be searching forever, forever, forever, forever… (repeat to fade) |

The Logical Song
by Supertramp When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful, a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical. And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily, joyfully, playfully watching me. But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible, logical, responsible, practical. And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable, clinical, intellectual, cynical. There are times when all the world's asleep, the questions run too deep for such a simple man. Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned I know it sounds absurd but please tell me who I am. Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical, liberal, fanatical, criminal. Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're acceptable, respecable, presentable, a vegtable! At night, when all the world's asleep, the questions run so deep for such a simple man. Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned I know it sounds absurd but please tell me who I am. |

After school is over you're playing in the park Don't be out too late, don't let it get too dark They tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about And grow up just like them - won't you let it work it out - and you're full of doubt Don't do this and don't do that What are they trying to do? Make a good boy of you Do they know where it's at? Don't criticize, they're old and wise Do as they tell you to Don't want the devil to Come and put out your eyes Maybe I'm mistaken expecting you to fight Or maybe I'm just crazy, I don't know wrong from right But while I am still living, I've just got this to say It's always up to you if you want to be that want to see that want to see it that way - you're coming along! |

Ooo-when I was a small boy,
Well, I could see the magic in a day, But, now I'm just a poor boy, Well, maybe it's the price you have to pay, If you lock your dreams away If no-one wants to listen. What's the story, I wish I'd been a minstrel, Just think of all the maidens I could call, Oh-I wish I'd been a gypsy, Then maybe I could read the crystal ball, 'Cause surrounded by these walls, Just makes me feel uneasy. I said hey, Sister Moonshine Won't you send me a little sun Who's a stranger to everyone. I said hey, Sister moonshine So, -MAKE US ALL LAUGH- -MAKE US ALL GIVE- Make us all cry Make us all try Give us a secret, show us the light, Well, strike up the music, light up the sky. Well, I could be the king off all the plains, Mmm-If I was a lion, Mmm-If is was an eagle, Well, maybe I could fly above the rains, But, I know I'm only foolin' Oh, fly above the pain I said hey, Sister Moonshine, Won't you send me a little sun, Who's a stranger to everyone. I said hey, Sister Moonshine, Make us all cry, So, -MAKE US ALL LAUGH- -MAKE US ALL GIVE- Make us all cry, I said hey, Sister Moonshine, I said hey, said hey I said hey, I said hey Sister Moonshine I said hey, Sister Moonshine |

playing a part in a picture-show Take the long way home Take the long way home Cos you're the joke of the neighborhood Why should you care if you're feeling good Take the long way home Take the long way home But there are times that you feel you're part of the scenery all the greenery is comin' down, boy And then your wife seems to think you're part of the furniture oh, it's peculiar, she used to be so nice. When lonely days turn to lonely nights you take a trip to the city lights And take the long way home Take the long way home You never see what you want to see Forever playing to the gallery You take the long way home Take the long way home And when you're up on the stage, it's so unbelievable, unforgettable, how they adore you, But then your wife seems to think you're losing your sanity, oh, calamity, is there no way out? Does it feel that you life's become a catastrophe? Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy. When you look through the years and see what you could have been oh, what might have been, if you'd had more time. So, when the day comes to settle down, Who's to blame if you're not around? You took the long way home You took the long way home........... |

When I was young
It seemed that life was so wonderful A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical And all the birds in the trees Well they'd be singing so happily Oh joyfully, oh playfully watching me But then they sent me away To teach me how to be sensible Logical, oh responsible, practical And then they showed me a world Where I could be so dependable Oh clinical, oh intellectual, cynical There are times when all the world's asleep The questions run too deep For such a simple man Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned I know it sounds absurd Please tell me who I am I say now watch what you say Or they'll be calling you a radical A liberal, oh fanatical, criminal Oh won't you sign up your name We'd like to feel you're acceptable Respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable Whoa (tick, tick, tick, yeah) But at night when all the world's asleep The questions run so deep For such a simple man Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned I know it sounds absurd But please tell me who I am, who I am, who I am, who I am |

What you gonna do? You're gonna sit around a cloud and say "Hey, what a lovely view" Is there a reason, why you're like you are? Is there a reason you'll be leaving? Is my love out of season? I wouldn't mind but to me that is Treason You started laughing When I held you in my arms You started leaving When I told you of my charms I was in love with you and then you said, we're through And then I said, "Boo hoo" Was my tie not on straight?

I beg, you choose You're so cool and I'm confused I'm me and you're you You're so loose and I'm uptight You're day, I'm night Like two ships in the night in foggy weather, Just a waitin' for fresh winds to blow. Maybe we're losin' one another I could be wrong I don't know You get the best, I get the rest You pass the test, I'm just a mess You got it made, I'm in the shade Like two ships in the night ... Like two dopes in the boat, without a paddle Just a wonderin' why it don't go We could be losin' one another I could be wrong I don't know I know you're tryin' to phase me It's gonna drive me crazy I can't wait for the day when I win, You lose You beg and I choose You're in the shade, I'm on parade Like two ships in the night ... |

Hide in your shell cos the world is out to bleed you for a ride
What will you gain making your life a little longer? Heaven or Hell, was the journey cold that gave your eyes of steel? Shelter behind painting your mind and playing joker Too Frightening to listen to a stranger Too Beautiful to put your pride in danger You're waiting for someone to understand you But you've got demons in your closet And you're screaming out to stop it Saying life's begun to cheat you Friends are out to beat you Grab on to what you scramble for Don't let the tears linger on inside now Cos it's sure time you gained control If I can help you, if I can help you If I can help you, just let me know Well, let me show you the nearest signpost To get your heartback and on the road If I can help you, if I can help you If I can help you, just let me know. All through the night as you lie awake and hold yourself so tight What do you need, a second-hand-movie-star to tend you? I as a boy, I believed the saying the cure for pain was love How would it be if you could see the world through my eyes? Too Frightening- the fire's getting colder Too Beautiful- to think you're getting older You're looking for someone to give an answer. But what you see is just an illusion You're surrounded by confusion Saying life's begun to cheat you Friends are out to beat you Grab on to what you can scramble for Don't let the tears... ... just let me know I wanna know... I wanna know you... Well let me know you I wanna feel you I wanna touch you Please let me near you Can you hear what I'm saying? Well I'm hoping, I'm dreamin', I'm prayin' I know what you're thinkin' See what you're seein' Never ever let yourself go Hold yourself down, hold yourself down Why d'ya hold yourself down? Why don't you listen, you can Trust me, There's a place I know the way to A place there is need to feel you Feel that you're alone Hear me I know exactly what you're feelin' cos all your troubles are within you please begin to see that I'm just bleeding to Love me, love you Loving is the way to Help me, help you - Why must we be so cool, oh so cool?

The actors and jesters are here
The stage is in darkness and clear For raising the curtain and no-one's quite certain whose play it is How long ago, how long If only we had listened then. If we'd known just how right we were going to be. For we dreamed a lot And we schemed a lot And we tried to sing of love before the stage fell apart. If everyone was listening you know There'd be a chance that we could save the show Who'll be the last clown To bring the house down? Oh no, please no, don't let the curtain fall Well, what is your costume today? Who are the props in your play? You're acting a part which you thought from the start was an honest one. Well how do you plead? An actor indeed! Go re-learn your lines, You don't know what you've done The finale's begun. If everyone was listening you know There'd be a chance that we could save the show, Who'll be the last clown To bring the house down? Oh no, please no, don't let the curtain fall |

After school is over you're playing in the park Don't be out too late, don't let it get too dark They tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about And grow up just like them - won't you let it work it out - and you're full of doubt Don't do this and don't do that What are they trying to do? Make a good boy of you Do they know where it's at? Don't criticize, they're old and wise Do as they tell you to Don't want the devil to Come and put out your eyes Maybe I'm mistaken expecting you to fight Or maybe I'm just crazy, I don't know wrong from right But while I am still living, I've just got this to say It's always up to you if you want to be that want to see that want to see it that way - you're coming along! |

"I want to tell you something;
Listen to me, I'm trying to say, I'm better than you, I am only what I am" "We must not stand still, For the night is coming, Every man, every woman and child, Everybody help me" I hear, only what I want to hear, But, I have to believe in something, Have to believe in just one thing. I said Father Washington, you're all mixed up, Collecting sinners in an old tin cup. Well, spare a listen for a restless fool, There's something missing when I need your rule. Well ,hey there; You tell me you're a holy man, But, although I am just a beginner, I don't see you as a winner. I said, Sister Robinson, you're all washed up, Collecting teardrops in a paper cup; If I could tell you what you need to know; If I could help you to get on with the show. I'd rather never leave her, There's a storm in my head, Makes me hear what you say; Just was it true? So, what have I to do? -Well, what has he to do?- +Oh, what is there to-oo do+ What oh-oh-ohoh "All creatures great and small, all things wise and wonderful, the lord god made them all" Mary, oh tell me what I'm living for, 'Cause I feel like I'm tossed in the river, Oh' have you a son to deliver. I said, Father Washington, you're all mixed up, Collecting sinners in an old tin cup, you tell the children what they need to know, But, will they listen when it's time to go. Oh, Sister Robinson, you're all washed up, Collecting teardrops in a paper cup, Can someone tell me what I need to know, Can someone help me to get on with the show. |

I can see you in the morning when you go to school Teacher tells you stop your play and get on with your work Don't forget your books, you know you've got to learn the golden rule, And be like Johnnie - too-good, well don't you know he never shirks - he's coming along! They tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about After School is over you're playing in the park Don't be out too late, don't let it get too dark And grow up just like them - won't you let it work it out - and you're full of doubt What are they trying to do? Do they know where it's at? Don't do this and don't do that - Make a good boy of you Don't want the devil to Don't criticise, they're old and wise Do as they tell you to Come out and put your eyes Or maybe I'm just crazy, I don't know wrong from right Maybe I'm mistaken expecting you to fight It's always up to you if you want to be that But while I am still living, I've just got this to say want to see that want to see that way - you're coming along |

So you think you're a Romeo
playing a part in a picture-show Take the long way home Take the long way home Cos you're the joke of the neighborhood Why should you care if you're feeling good Take the long way home Take the long way home But there are times that you feel you're part of the scenery all the greenery is comin' down, boy And then your wife seems to think you're part of the furniture oh, it's peculiar, she used to be so nice. When lonely days turn to lonely nights you take a trip to the city lights And take the long way home Take the long way home You never see what you want to see Forever playing to the gallery You take the long way home Take the long way home And when you're up on the stage, it's so unbelievable, unforgettable, how they adore you, But then your wife seems to think you're losing your sanity, oh, calamity, is there no way out? Does it feel that you life's become a catastrophe? Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy. When you look through the years and see what you could have been oh, what might have been, if you'd had more time. So, when the day comes to settle down, Who's to blame if you're not around? You took the long way home You took the long way home........... |

When I was young It seemed that life is so wonderful a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical and all the birds in the trees well they'd be singing so happily oh joyfully, oh playfully watching me But, then, they sent me away to teach me how to be sensible logical, oh responsible, practical And then they show me a world Where I could be so dependable oh clinical, oh intellectual, cynical There are times when all the world's asleep the question run to deep for such a simple man Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned I know it sounds adsurd Please tell me who I am I say: Now watch what you say Or they'll be calling you a radical A liberal, oh fanatical, criminal Oh won't you sign up your name We'd like to feel you're acceptable, respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable whoa (tick tick tick yeah) But at night when all the world's asleep The questions run so deep For such a simple man Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned I know it sounds absurd But please tell me who I am... |

When you're in heaven
What you gonna do? You're gonna sit around a cloud and say "Hey, what a lovely view" Is there a reason, why you're like you are? Is there a reason you'll be leaving? Is my love out of season? I wouldn't mind but to me that is Treason You started laughing When I held you in my arms You started leaving When I told you of my charms I was in love with you and then you said, we're through And then I said, "Boo hoo" Was my tie not on straight? Was it something I ate? |

You say that you could do with a break
Had about all you can take You need to find somewhere you can run to Somewhere a long way from here Somewhere where the skies are all clear Somewhere you can think all your thoughts through It took a long time to make me understand You gotta meet life and shake it by the hand You gotta use your emotion You talk a nice line to put your mind at ease You want to sit back and count your memories But that's no solution I don't want to harp about it But what you gonna do about it? Look at how you're set in your ways You used to be so willing to face Any kind of problem before you Life is not as long as you think Open up your mind and you'll see Don't destroy yourself I implore you You've got a fine wife, a perfect family You had it all planned to live so carefully But where does it get you They say the mind is an awful thing to waste And that's a fact that you must come to face What more can I tell you? I don't want to harp about it But what you gonna do about it? You have everything you that need You only have to try to succeed And realize it's all waiting for you Living life this way is a bust If you have to suffer you must Don't you know we want to applaud yo |

When a spirit is broken
Why go on When there's nothing to say And a love just a token It was strong Now it's fading away Ah but I'm free as a bird As I walk right out that door You have my word I won't bother you no more Yes I'm doing alright As I face the lonely night And our love it was over Long ago But we just didn't say And the years they have fallen One by one How they drifted away But now I'm free as a bird As I walk out that door You have my word I won't bother you no more Yes I'm feeling OK As I face the brand new day As I face the brand new day You know I'm free as a bird As I walk right out that door You have my word I won't bother you no more Yes I'm doing alright As I face the lonely night As I face the lonely night No more sorrows will I find I've got tomorrow on my side No more teardrops will I cry Left my teardrops way behind No more sorrows will I find I've got tomorrow on my side No more teardrops will I cry Left my teardrops way behind No more heartaches bother me Don't wear my heartaches on my sleeve It's gonna be a brand new story What's the use of former glory It's better not to do if you can't do right It's time to get to celebrating After all the years of waiting I'm gonna have a ball if it takes all night |

I'm beggin' you, let's start anew
All my fears were wrong I was too headstrong Now I'm missing you It's been too long, and still you're gone If you ever cared About the life we shared Please let me know I think about you lately More than you will ever know And if you could just forgive me You know I'd love you so We had a love, to be proud of What was once a thrill Then became a chill And so very cold So I'm beggin you, let's start anew Give it one more chance It's the final dance Before you go away I've got something more to say I think about you lately... You know I never meant no harm can't you see it's just a false alarm How can I make you change your mind 'Cause I wanna make it right this time You know I'll love you all the way That's why I'm beggin' you to stay You've got to listen to my plea I'm down here on my bended knees baby won't you please come home Can't stand to be so all alone |

You saw me in the first place, Who d'you think I am How can you be so two-faced And tell me where I stand Yeah, we've been here once before, I see you by the door, You said you knew and all were calling, Yeah, you know you just can't lose, All you have to do is choose, let me in on where your heart is. You ain't nothing but another man's woman, Living on another man's land; At night I hear a hound dog callin, A callin' me a cheatin' man. I tell you somethin', I need good lovin', but you don't understand, At night I see you cannonball comin' To blow me to the promised land. If there's no-way of showing where your love lies, Is it me?, is it him?, or no-one; What will be done? About the mess you made me, Oh don't you give a damn, You're gonna drive me crazy, It's more than I can stand, 'Round and 'round we always go First it's yes and then it's no, Oh whatever keeps me sane?

Although I'll rant and I'll rave about one thing and another I'm a poor boy, The beauty of it is so pure to me, though, As long as I can feel free. I can still be happy, So many people I know, get old way too early (Well are you feelin' kind of weary) Just to impress you with the money they've made (You better, you better change your theory) One drop of rain, they complain, it's the same about the ways they're earning.

all of my life i felt that you were listening watching for ways to help me stay in tune lord of my dreams, although confusion keeps trying to decieve what is it that makes me believe in you? babaji, oh won't you come to me bring it out so we can sing it out won't you help me face the music help me to find it before we lose it at night when the stars are near and there's no one to keep you from coming here is it mine, is it mine, is it mine to know? and there's no one to shield me before your eyes i can see it's not too good to me to be afloat in the sea of glory babaji, oh how you comfort me by showing me it's a different story your light in the dark is real is it mine, is it mine, is it mine to know? when i see the reflections that's in your eyes and i know that you know it is how i feel babaji, have you a song for me oh must you always remain a stranger? bring it out so we can sing it out to tell the world of its guardian angel and i long for delusion to disappear at night when the stars are near the i see the reflection that's in your eyes is it time, is it time, is it time to know |

Took a boat Sunday, down by the sea It just felt so nice, you and me We didn?t have a problem or a care And all around was silence, everywhere Be with you through all seasons You are the reason I was born I?ll always hear you when you call We?ll keep our love light shining Through each night and day A lonely life behind me Oh what a change you?ve made So down here on the ocean we will stay Went through a lot of changes We will stay, we will stay Turned a lot of pages That is all I need When I took a boat Sunday To know you as I know you now And we will get along somehow If we both believe So down here on the ocean we will stay Went through a lot of changes We will stay, we will stay When I took a boat Sunday Turned a lot of pages |

Even in the quietest moments I wish I knew, what I had to do And even though the sun is shining Well I feel the rain, here it comes again, dear For there?s a shadow of doubt that?s not letting me find you too soon And even when you showed me My heart was out of tune The music that you gave me The language of my soul Oh Lord, I want to be with you Won?t you let me come in from the cold? Don?t you let the sun fade away Don?t you let the sun fade away Won?t you come to me soon Don?t you let the sun be leaving And the I create the silent movie And even though the stars are listening And the oceans deep, I just go to sleep You become the star, is that what you are, dear? Your whisper tells a secret Your laughter brings me joy They?re raining from the sky And a wonder of feeling I?m nature?s own little boy But still the tears keep falling Well there?s a lot of me got to go under before I get high Don?t you let the sun disappear Don?t you let the sun disappear Don?t you let the sun be leaving No, you can?t be leaving my life Say that you won?t be leaving my life Say that you won?t be leaving my life Say won?t you please, stay won?t you please Say won?t you please, stay won?t you please Lord, won?t you come and get inot my life Lord, won?t you come and get into my life Say won?t you please, stay won?t you pleaseOh Lord, do?n?t go Say won?t you please, stay won?t you please And even when the song is over Where have I been, was it just a dream? Where do I begin, may I please come in, dear And though your door is always open |

History recalls how great the fall can be While everybody's sleeping, the boats put out to sea Borne on the wings of time It seemed the answers were so easy to find ";Too late,"; the prophets cry The island's sinking, let's take to the sky Called the man a fool, striped him of his pride Everyone was laughing up until the day he died And though the wound went deep Still he's calling us out of our sleep My friends, we're not alone He waits in silence to lead us all home So tell me that you find it hard to grow Well I know, I know, I know And you tell me that you've many seeds to sow Well I know, I know, I know Can you hear what I'm saying Can you see the parts that I'm playing ";Holy Man, Rocker Man, Come on Queenie, Joker Man, Spider Man, Blue Eyed Meanie"; So you found your solution What will be your last contribution? ";Live it up, rip it up, why so lazy? Give it out, dish it out, let's go crazy, Yeah!"; |

I'll tell you from the start You can't stop the lover boy He's gonna break your heart You can't stop the lover boy He's gonna tell you lies But you won't realize Because you can't stop the lover boy You can't stop the lover boy It's from a book he's read He's got a thing in his head It tell you how to be vital He took a lot of time It's got a funny title, Over every line Because it's guaranteed To satisfy He's gonna knock 'em dead The boy's got that book read You can't stop the lover boy You can't stop the lover boy Right from the clothes he wears The way he combs his hair He used to have a problem but he got it fixed You can't stop him now, because he knows all the tricks He took a small apartment Above a shoe department All the lights in the street glow Andd he could see from his window And tonight he will go there So all you ladies beware There's a club on the corner To find a new affair He's got to have a good time in the city He's gonna love 'em and leave 'em, cheat and decieve 'em He's got to have a good time every night He's gonna show 'em who's wrong and who's right |

It was an early morning yesterday I was up before the dawn And I really have enjoyed my stay But I must be moving on Like a king without a castle Like a queen without a throne I'm an early morning lover And I must be moving on Now I believe in what you say Is the undisputed truth But I have to have things my own way To keep me in my youth Like a ship without an achor Like a slave without a chain Just the thought of those sweet ladies Sends a shiver through my veins And I will go on shining Shining like brand new I'll never look behind me My troubles will be few Goodbye stranger, it's been nice Hope you find your paradise Tried to see your point of view Hope your dreams will all come true Goodbye Mary, Goodbye Jane Will we ever meet again Feel no sorrow, feel no shame Come tomorrow, feel no pain Now some they do and some they don't And some you just can't tell And some they will and some they won't With some it's just as well You can laugh at my behavior That'll never bother me Say the devil is my savior But I don't pay no heed And I will go on shining Shining like brand new I'll never look behind me My troubles will be few Goodbye stranger, it's been nice Hope you find your paradise Tried to see your point of view Hope your dreams will all come true Goodbye Mary, Goodbye Jane Will we ever meet again Feel no sorrow, feel no shame Come tomorrow, feel no pain |

When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical. And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily, Joyfully, playfully watching me. But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible, Logical, responsible, practical. And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable, Clinical, intellectual, cynical. There are times when all the world's asleep, The questions run too deep For such a simple man. Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned I know it sounds absurd But please tell me who I am. Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical, Liberal, fanatical, criminal. Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're Acceptable, respectable, presentable, a vegetable! At night, when all the world's asleep, The questions run so deep For such a simple man. Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned I know it sounds absurd But please tell me who I am. |

So many years have come and gone since then
Still i can't forget the past But you and me, we'll surelt meet again And maybe find the truth at last And the light, in the night Shines on brightly If it's alright with you It's alright with me Well i believe, that fate will find a way To guide us through these restless years And yes i know, that we'll speak one day With no more doubts and no more fears And the light, in the night Shines on brightly If it's alright with you It's alright with me So tell me now, if you can share my view Tell me where your comin' from We've both had time, time to think it through To know just where we both belong And the light, in the night Shines on brightly If it's alright with you It's alright with me |

To the school and walked around And the way it felt Seemed just like yesterday From the cradle to the grave Some say we never change No matter how we try We try to rearrange And like father so like son It's as if wife we're both as one Just as if our fate was... it was pre-ordained In some countries far from here You know the one's we used to fear Are they waiting to return to Those old evil ways You can take a correspondence course Be single, married or divorced You can psychoanalyze your brain But you know some things will never change And what will all those people do When Russia starts anew They'll just stand in line All under a different name You can listen to those brainwash tapes Take a Jewish, Catholic, Buddhist faith But I'm sure it's gonna be in vain 'Cos you know some things will never change And if their theories all come true Then there's nothin' we can do Where the future lies Well it's not to hard to tell But after all is said and done And the world lives as one You can bid those old taboo's A fond fare well Yes a long fare well A very long fare well |

I said, ";Lovers, you're needed in the garden 'Cauce there's a lot of crazy people Who've forgotten where their heart is And they don't give a damn About hurting those flowers and those trees."; C'est le bon, sailing on and on...
