Judy Collins

Bows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds that way
But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way
I've looked at clouds
from both sides now
From up and down and still somehow
It's clouds' illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all

Moons and Junes and ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way you feel
When every fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way
But now it's just another show
You leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you care
don't let them know
Don't give yourself away
I've looked at love
from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all

Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say I love you right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way
But now old friends are
acting strange
They shake their heads
they say I've changed
Well something's lost
but something's gained
In living every day
I've looked at life
from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all

Desperado
Why don't you come to
your senses
You been out riding fences
For so long now
Oh you're a hard one
But I know
you've got your reasons
These things that are
pleasing you
Can hurt you somehow
Don't you draw the
queen of diamonds boy
She'll beat you
If she's able
The queen of hearts
Is always your best bet
Now it seems to me
some fine things
Have been laid upon
your table
But you only want the ones
That you can't get
Desperado
Oh you ain't gettin'
no younger
You pain and your hunger
They're driving you home
Freedom That's just
some people talking
You're prisoners walking
Through this world all alone
Don't your feet get cold
in the wintertime
The sky won't snow and the
sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the
night time
From the day
You're losing all
your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the
feeling goes away
Desperado
Why don't you come to
your senses
Come down from your fences
And open the gate
It may be raining
But there's a rainbow
above you
You better let somebody
love you
Let somebody love you
You better let somebody
love you
Before it's too late
You better let somebody
love you
Before it's too late

Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning,
And the first thing that I heard
Was a song outside my window,
And the traffic wrote the words
It came ringing up like Christmas bells,
And rapping up like pipes and drums

Oh, won't you stay, we'll put on the day
And we'll wear it till the night comes

Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning,
And the first thing that I saw
Was the sun through yellow curtains,
And a rainbow on the wall
Blue, red, green and gold to welcome you,
Crimson crystal beads to beckon

Oh oh, won't you stay, we'll put on the day
There's a sun show every second

Now the curtain opens on a portrait of today
And the streets are paved with passersby
And pigeons fly and papers lie
Waiting to blow away

Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning,
And the first thing that I knew
There was milk and toast and honey
And a bowl of oranges, too
And the sun poured in like butterscotch
And stuck to all my senses

Oh oh, won't you stay, we'll put on the day
And we'll talk in present tenses

When the curtain closes
And the rainbow runs away
I will bring you incense owls by night
By jewel-light, by candle-light
If only you will stay

Pretty my darling', won't you wake up,
It's a Chelsea morning

Suzanne takes you down
To her place far the river
You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night forever

And you know that she's half crazy
But that's why you want to be there
And she feeds you tea and oranges
That come all the way from China

And just when you want to tell her
That you have no love to give her
Then she gets you on her wavelength
And she lets the river answer
That you've always been her lover

And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you think you'll maybe trust her
For she's touched your perfect body
With your mind

And Jesus was a sailor
When he walked upon the water
And he spent a long time watching
From her lonely wooden tower

And when he knew for certain
Only drowning men could see him
He said "All men will be sailors
Then until the sea shall free them"

But he himself was broken
Long before the sky would open
Forsaken, almost human
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone

And you want to travel with him
And you want to travel blind
And you think you'll maybe trust him
For he's touched your perfect body
With his mind

Suzanne takes you down
To her place far the river
You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night forever

And the sun pours down like honey
On our lady of the harbour
And she shows you where to look
Among the garbage and the flowers

There are heroes in the seaweed
There are children in the morning
They are leaning out for love
And they will lean that way forever
While Suzanne holds the mirror

And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you think you'll maybe trust her
For she's touched your perfect body
With her mind

[Chorus]
As we march down to Fannerio
As we march down to Fannerio
Our captain fell in love with a lady like a dove
And we called her by her name pretty Peggy-O

What will your mother think pretty Peggy-O?
What will your mother think pretty Peggy-O?
What will your mother think but I hear the guineas clink?
And the soldiers marchin' behind you O

You shall ride in a coach pretty Peggy-O
You shall ride in a coach pretty Peggy-O
You shall ride in a coach with your true love by your side
As fine as any lady in the country O

And when I return pretty Peggy-O
When I return pretty Peggy-O
When I return, the city I will burn
And destroy all the ladies in the country O

Come trippin' down the stairs pretty Peggy-O
Come trippin' down the stairs pretty Peggy-O
Come trippin' down the stairs combin' back your yellow hair
Bid your last farewell to sweet William-O

Sweet William he is dead pretty Peggy-O
Sweet William is dead pretty Peggy-O
Sweet William is dead and he died for a maid
He's buried in the Louisiana country O

[Chorus]

I am a maid of constant sorrow
I've seen trials all of my days
I'm going back to California
Place where I was partly raised

Your friends may say that I'm a stranger
My face they'll never see no more
There is but one promise that's given
I'll sail on God's golden shore

All through this world I'm bound to ramble
Through sun and wind and drivin' rain
I'm bound to ride the western railway
Perhaps I'll take the very next train

I am a maid of constant sorrow
I've seen trials all of my days
I'm going back to California
Place where I was partly raised

What I'll give you since you asked
Is all my time together
Take the rugged sunny days,
The warm and Rocky weather
Take the roads that I have walked along,
Looking for tomorrow's time, peace of mind.

As my life spills into yours,
Changing with the hours
Filling up the world with time,
Turning time to flowers
I can show you all the songs
That I never sang to one man before.

We have seen a million stones lying
By the water
You have climbed the hills with me
To the mountain shelter
Taken off the days one by one,
Setting them to breathe in the sun.

Take the lilies and the lace
From the days if childhood
All the willow winding paths
Leading up and outward
This is what I give,
This is what I ask you for nothing more.

As we go marching, marching
In the beauty of the day,
A million darkened kitchens,
A thousand mill lofts gray

Are touched with all the radiance
That a sudden sun discloses,
For the people hear us singing
"Bread and roses, bread and roses"

As we go marching, marching
We battle too for men,
For they are women's children
And we mother them again

Our lives shall not be sweated
From birth until life closes
Hearts starve as well as bodies
Give us bread but give us roses

As we go marching, marching
Unnumbered woman dead
Go crying through our singing
Their ancient call for bread

Small art and love and beauty
Their drudging spirits knew
Yes, it is bread we fight for,
But we fight for roses too

As we go marching, marching
We bring the greater days
The rising of the women
Means the rising of the race

No more the drudge and idler,
Ten that toil where one reposes
But a sharing of life's glories
Bread and roses, bread and roses

Our lives shall not be sweated
From birth until life closes
Hearts starve as well as bodies
Bread and roses, bread and roses

Riding on the City of New Orleans
Illinios Central, Monday morning rail
Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders
Three conductors and 25 sacks of mail

All along a south-bound odyssey
The train pulls out of Kankakee
Rolls along past houses, farms and fields
Passing trains that have no name
Freight yards full of old black men
And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles

Good morning America, how are you?
Saying don't you know me I'm your native son?
I'm the train they call,
The City of New Orleans
I'll be gone five hundred miles
When the day is done

Dealing cards with the oldmen in the club car
Penny of point, ain't no one keeping score
Say won't you pass the paper bag
That holds the bottle
Feel the wheels a rumbling 'neath the floor

And the sons of Pullman porters
And the sons of engineers
Ride their fathers' magic carpet made of
steel
And mothers with their babes asleep
Rockin' to the gentle beat
And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel

Good morning America, how are you?
Saying don't you know me I'm your native son?
I'm the train they call,
The City of New Orleans
I'll be gone five hundred miles
When the day is done

Nighttime on the City of New Orleans
Changing cars in Memphis, Tennessee
Halfway home and we'll be there by morning
Through the Mississippi darkness
Rolling down to the sea

But all the towns and people seem
To fade into a bad dream
And the steel rails still
Ain't heard the news
The conductor sings his song again
The passengers will please refrain
This train has got the disappearing
Railroad blues

Goodbye America, I love you
Saying don't you know me I'm your native son?
I'm the train they call,
The City of New Orleans
I'll be gone five hundred miles
When the days is done

I'll be gone five hundred miles
When the days is done, I'll be gone

I'll learn to love the fallow way
When winter draws the valley down
And stills the rivers in their storm
And freezes all the little brooks

Time when our steps slow to the song
Of falling flakes and crackling flames
When silver stars are high and still
Deep in the velvet of the night sky

The crystal time the silence times
I'll learn to love their quietness
While deep beneath the glistening snow
The black earth dreams of violets
I'll learn to love the fallow times

I'll learn to love the fallow way
When all my colors fade to white
And flying birds fold back their wings
Upon my anxious wonderings

The sun has slanted all her rays
Across the vast and harvest plains
My memories mingle in the dawn
I dream a joyful vagabonds

The crystal times the silence times
I'll learn to love their quietness
When deep beneath the glistening snow
The black earth dreams in of violets
I'll learn to love the fallow times

No drummer comes across the plains
To tell of triumph or of pain
No word far off battle's cry
To draw me out or draw me nigh

I'll learn to love the fallow way
And gather in the patient fruits
And after autumns blaze and burn
I'll know the full still, deep roots

That nothing seem to know or need
That crack the ice in frozen ponds
And slumbering in winter's folds
Have dreams of green and blue and gold

I'll learn to love the fallow way
And listening for blossoming
Of my own heart once more in spring

As sure as time, as sure as snow
As sure as moonlight, wind and stars
The fallow time will fall away
The sun will bring an April day
And I will yield to summer's way

Grandaddy look at the gypsies dancing
In the firelight, burning so brightly
How do they keep themselves
Warm on such a night

See all the fiddlers twirling
While he plays his violin
Laughing and shouting
Have you seen anything
Like it in all your life

Grandma was cold and chide when we get in
She'll wanna know what we've done
And where we've been

Promise me you'll never tell,
You know your secret's safe with me
I can be trusted

Wrap me up in your winter coat
Wrap me up so tight
I never will feel the cold
I'll be safe tonight

Can we go down to the railroad track
And watch the train go by
Shining like silver
I hear the whistle, the train is on it's way

Hold me up over your shoulder
So that I can see the light
Over the pine trees
How I would like to go riding on the train

Tell me the story again
About the time you went away
You went to Chicago,
No one knew where you were

Why did you ever come back here
After you had run away
I'm glad you did sir

Wrap me in your winter coat
Wrap me up so tight
I never will feel the cold
I'll be warm tonight

Grandaddy tell me the names
Of all the stars up in the sky
Is there a heaven?
Do you think there is a life after we die?

Why do some people have all the gold
And silver they can spend?
Others have nothing
It isn't fair and I've always wondered why

Can I hold the match
While you light your pipe?
I love the smell of tobacco in the air

Tell me again about
How it was before I came to be
In the old country
When we'll another sail across the sea

Wrap me up in your winter coat
Wrap me up so tight
I never will feel the cold
I'll be warm tonight

Wrap me up in your winter coat
Wrap me up so tight
I never will feel the cold
I'll be warm tonight
I'll be sail tonight

My father always promised us
That we would live in France
We'd go boating on the Seine
And I would learn to dance

We lived in Ohio then
He worked in the mines
On his dreams like boats
We knew we would sail in time

All my sisters soon were gone
To Denver and Cheyenne
Marrying their grownup dreams
The lilacs and the man

I stayed behind the youngest still
Only danced alone
The colors of my father's dreams
Faded without a sound

And I live in Paris now
My children dance and dream
Hearing the ways of a miner's life
In words they've never seen

I sail my memories of home
Like boats across the Seine
And watch the Paris sun
As it sets in my father's eyes again

- interlude -

My father always promised us
That we would live in France
We'd go boating on the Seine
And I would learn to dance

I sail my memories of home
Like boats across the Seine
And watch the Paris sun
As it sets in my father's eyes again

Bien sûr nous eume des orages
Vingt ans d'amour c'est l'amour folle
Mille fois tu pris ton bagages,
Mille fois je pris mon envole

Et chaque meuble se souvient
Dans cette chambre sans berceau
Des éclat de vieilles tempêtes

Plus rien ne ressemblait à rien,
Tu avais perdu le goût de l'eau
Et moi, celui de la conquête

Mais, mon amour, mon doux, mon tendre,
Mon merveilleux amour,
De l'aube claire jusqu'à la fin du jour
Je t'aime encore, tu sais, je t'aime

Moi, je sais tous tes sortilèges
Tu sais tous mes envôutements
Tu m'as gardé de pièges en pièges
Je t'ai perdu de temps en temps

Bien sûr tu pris quelques amants
Il fallait bien passer le temps
Il faut bien que le corps exulte

Finalement, finalement,
Il nous fallu bien du talent
Pour être vieux sans être adulte

Mais, mon amour, mon doux, mon tendre,
Mon merveilleux amour,
De l'aube claire jusqu'à la fin du jour
Je t'aime encore, tu sais, je t'aime

Et plus le temps nous fait cortège,
Et plus le temps nous fait tourment
Mais n'est ce pas le pire piège
Que vivre en paix pour des amants

Bien sûr tu pleure un peu moins tôt,
Je me déchire un peu plus tard
Nous protégeons moins nos mystères

On laisse moins faire le hasard,
On se méfie du fil de l'eau
Mais c'est toujours la tendre guerre

Mais, mon amour, mon doux, mon tendre,
Mon merveilleux amour,
De l'aube claire jusqu'à la fin du jour
Je t'aime encore, tu sais, je t'aime

There are places I remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some are gone and some remain

Oh these places had their meanings
With lovers and friends, I still recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life, I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one, compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life, I've loved you more

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life, I've loved you more

Isn't it rich? are we a pair?
Me here at last on the ground,
You in mid-air
Where are the clowns?

Isn't it bliss? don't you approve?
One who keeps tearing around,
One who can't move
Where are the clowns?
There ought to be clowns.

Just when I'd stopped opening doors,
Finally knowing the one
That I wanted was yours.
Making my entrance again with my usual flair
Sure of my lines, no one is there.

Don't you love farce? my fault, I fear
I thought that you'd want what I want
Sorry, my dear, and where are the clowns
Send in the clowns
Don't bother, they're here.

Isn't it rich? isn't it queer?
Losing my timing this late in my career
But where are the clowns?
There ought to be clowns
Well, maybe next year.

Bows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds that way
But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way
I've looked at clouds
from both sides now
From up and down and still somehow
It's clouds' illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all

Moons and Junes and ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way you feel
When every fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way
But now it's just another show
You leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you care
don't let them know
Don't give yourself away
I've looked at love
from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all

Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say I love you right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way
But now old friends are
acting strange
They shake their heads
they say I've changed
Well something's lost
but something's gained
In living every day
I've looked at life
from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all

Desperado
Why don't you come to
your senses
You been out riding fences
For so long now
Oh you're a hard one
But I know
you've got your reasons
These things that are
pleasing you
Can hurt you somehow
Don't you draw the
queen of diamonds boy
She'll beat you
If she's able
The queen of hearts
Is always your best bet
Now it seems to me
some fine things
Have been laid upon
your table
But you only want the ones
That you can't get
Desperado
Oh you ain't gettin'
no younger
You pain and your hunger
They're driving you home
Freedom That's just
some people talking
You're prisoners walking
Through this world all alone
Don't your feet get cold
in the wintertime
The sky won't snow and the
sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the
night time
From the day
You're losing all
your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the
feeling goes away
Desperado
Why don't you come to
your senses
Come down from your fences
And open the gate
It may be raining
But there's a rainbow
above you
You better let somebody
love you
Let somebody love you
You better let somebody
love you
Before it's too late
You better let somebody
love you
Before it's too late

The fisherman are pitching pennies
In the sand beside the sea
The sunrise hits their oilskin boots
And their painted boats and me
They seem to know the ocean
Like a man knows a woman
She makes him wait around for half the morning
For the tide to turn

Pull on the ropes, Seine haul fisherman
Never catches more than he knows
He can sell in a day,
Pull on the ropes, Seine haul fisherman
Day's for work.
Night's the time to go dancing

They're drinking beer and laughing
And squinting at the sun
Waiting for the gulls to tell them
When the fish will come
Their faces brown and weathered
From all the nets they've run
They've learned to wait
They always know that the tide will turn

Pull on the ropes, Seine haul fisherman
Never catches more than he knows
He can sell in a day,
Pull on the ropes, Seine haul fisherman
Day's for work.
Night's the time to go dancing

Way out on the ocean
The big ships hunt for whales
The Japanese have caught so many
That now they hunt for snails
My fisherman's not greedy
He seems content to live
With the sun and the sand
And a net full of fish when the tide turns

Pull on the ropes, Seine haul fisherman
Never catches more than he knows
He can sell in a day,
Pull on the ropes, Seine haul fisherman
Day's for work.
Night's the time to go dancing

Pull on the ropes, Seine haul fisherman
Never catches more than he knows
He can sell in a day,
Pull on the ropes, Seine haul fisherman
Day's for work.
Night's the time to go dancing

The lady comes to the gate
Dressed in lavender and leather
Looking North to the sea
She finds the weather fine

She hears the steeple bells
Ringing through the orchard
All the way from town
She watches seagulls fly
Silver on the ocean stitching
Through the waves, the edges of the sky

Many people wander up
The hills from all around you
Making up your memories
And thinking they have found you

They cover you with veils of wonder
As if you were a bride
Young men holding violets are curious
To know if you have cried
And tell you why, and ask you why
Any way you answer

Lace around the collars
Of the blouses of the ladies
Flowers from a Spanish friend of the family

The embroid'ry of your life holds you in
And keeps you out but you survive
Imprisoned in your bones
Behind the isinglass windows of your eyes

And in the night the iron wheels
Rolling through the rain
Down the hills through the long grass
To the sea

And in the dark the hard bells
Ringing with pain, come away alone

Even now by the gate
With you long hair blowing
And the colors of the day
That lie along your arms

You must barter your life
To make sure you are living
And the crowd that has come
You give them the colors
And the bells and wind and the dream

Will there never be a prince
Who rides along the sea and the mountains
Scattering the sand and foam
Into amethyst fountains

Riding up the hills from the beach
In the long summer grass
Holding the sun in his hands
And shattering the isinglass?

Day and night and day again
And people come and go away forever
While the shining summer sea dances
In the glass of your mirror

While you search the waves for love
And your visions for a sign
The knot of tears around your throat
Is crystallizing into your design

And in the night the iron wheels
Rolling through the rain
Down the hills through the long grass
To the sea

And in the dark the hard bells
Ringing with pain, come away alone
Come away alone with me

In the heat of the summer
When the pavements were burning
The soul of a city was ravaged in the night
After the city sun was sinkin'

Now no one knows how it started
Why the windows were shattered
But deep in the dark, someone set the spark
And then it no longer mattered.

Down the streets they were rumbling
All the tempers were ragin'
Oh, where, oh, where are the white silver tongues
Who forgot to listen to the warnings?

On and On come the angry
No longer following reason
And all the stores were the target now
Where just the other day they were buyin'

Drunk with the memory of the ghetto
Drunk with the lure of the looting
And the memory of the uniforms shoving with their sticks
Asking, ";Are you looking for trouble?";

"No, no, no," moaned the mayor.
"It's not the way of the order.
"Oh stay in your homes, please leave us alone
"We'll be glad to talk in the morning."

"For shame, for shame," wrote the papers.
"Why the hurry to your hunger?
"Now the rubble's resting on your broken streets
"So you see what your rage has unraveled."

Baricades sadly were risin'
Bricks were heavily flyin'
And the loudspeaker drowned like a whisperin' sound
When compared to the angered emotions

And when the fury was over
And the Shame was replacing the anger.
So wrong, so wrong, but we've been down so long
And we had to make somebody listen
In the heat of the summer

To everything, turn, turn, turn
There is a season, turn, turn, turn
And a time for every purpose under heaven

A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh, a time to weep

To everything, turn, turn, turn
There is a season, turn, turn, turn
And a time to every purpose under heaven

A time to build up, a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones
A time to gather stones together

To everything, turn, turn, turn
There is a season
And a time to every purpose under heaven

A time of love, a time of hate
A time of war, a time of peace
A time you may embrace
A time to refrain from embracing

To everything, turn, turn, turn
There is a season, turn, turn, turn
And a time to every purpose under heaven

A time to gain, a time to lose
A time to rend, a time to sew
A time of love, a time of hate
A time of peace, I swear it's not too late

To everything, turn, turn, turn
There is a season
And a time to every purpose under heaven
And a time to every purpose under heaven

Farewell to Tarwathie
Adieu Mormond Hill
And the dear land of Crimmond
I bid you farewell

I'm bound off for Greenland
And ready to sail
In hopes to find riches
In hunting the whale

Farewell to my comrades
For a while we must part
And likewise the dear lass
Who first won my heart

The cold coast of Greenland
My love will not chill
And the longer my absence
More loving she'll feel

Our ship is well rigged
And she's ready to sail
The crew they are anxious
To follow the whale

Where the icebergs do float
And the stormy winds blow
Where the land and the ocean
Is covered with snow

The cold coast of Greenland
Is barren and bare
No see time nor harvest
Is ever known there

And the birds here sing sweetly
In mountain and dale
But there's no bird in Greenland
To sing to the whale

There is no habitation
For a man to live there
And the king of that country
Is the fierce Greenland bear

And there'll be no temptation
To tarry long there
With our ship under full
We will homeward repair

Farewell to Tarwathie
Adieu Mormond Hill
And the dear land of Crimmond
I bid you farewell

We're bound off for Greenland
And ready to sail
In hopes to find riches
In hunting the whale

Nothing lasts forever
You should know that by now
Good times, heartache
You'll get through this trouble
Though you may not know how
Your heart won't break

If you have a vision of your destiny
Tears can't stop you
Hidden in your heart
Is everything you can be
You'll be fine, nothin' lasts forever,
Nothin' lasts forever, nothin' lasts forever

You know where you're goin' even
When you are lost big world spinning
Just stay in the center
Where you think you belong gently turnin'

Run off with the gypsies to the carnival
Tight rope walker
Mysteries and miracles wherever you go
You'll be fine, nothin' lasts forever,
Nothin' lasts forever, nothin' lasts forever

Da da da da, da da da da, da da da da
Da da da da, da da da da, da da da da
Nothin' lasts forever, nothin' lasts forever

Watch the way the rainbow makes
It's way to the sun, yellow purple
Even in the shadows
Where light doesn't shine, magic silver

You could dream that all of this was
Meant to be, daylight dawning
Nothin lasts for ever you should that by now
You'll be fine

Nothin' lasts forever, nothin' lasts forever
Nothin' lasts forever

Da da da da, da da da da, da da da da
Da da da da, da da da da, da da da da

Nothin' lasts forever, nothin' lasts forever
Nothin' lasts forever..

We are not forgotten

Listen to my heart, look into my eyes
I have seen the stars falling from the skies
Listen to my fears, yours will lift and fly
Let me show you where, I have touched the air

Stories from the past, each as true as mine
We can speak at last through the sands of time
We are not forgotten anymore

These are things I know, trampled fields of snow
Sheets of falling rain, hope that concurs pain
Souls that call again in my memory
Through the veils of light falling on the sea

Letters wrapped in love, lips pressed in my dreams
Holy thoughts and brave, men who laugh and weep
We are not forgotten anymore

I am the face on the wall,
Spirit of hope ever rising
I am the prayer in your heart for peace

Nothing can protects us like a wall
From our foes and our fears
Nothing can be broken like a wall
With our hopes and our tears

We learned all too well, hard as you may try
There are days you win, there are days you die
Having seen the war, we can speak of peace
How we prayed all night for the dawn's release

Did we all come home, did we turn the page?
There are walls of joy, there are walls of rage
Walls at which you weep, walls on which you dance
Walls made of regret, walls you made by chance

Walls that break you heart, walls through which you can see
Walls made in your mind, walls that set you free
We are not forgotten anymore

I am the face on the wall,
Spirit of hope ever rising
I am the prayer in your heart for peace
For peace

Like a bird on the wire,
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.
Like a worm on a hook,
Like a knight from some old fashioned book
I have saved all my ribbons for thee.
If I, if I have been unkind,
I hope that you can just let it go by.
If I, if I have been untrue
I hope you know it was never to you.

Like a baby, stillborn,
Like a beast with his horn
I have torn everyone who reached out for me.
But I swear by this song
And by all that I have done wrong
I will make it all up to thee.
I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch,
He said to me, "You must not ask for so much."
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door,
She cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?"

Oh like a bird on the wire,
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
놀라운 은총,너무나 달콤한 주님의 음성
That saved a wretch like me
나와같이 비참한사람들을 구해주시니
I once was lost but now I'm found,
한때 길을 잃었었지만 지금은 나의 길을 찾았어요
Was blind but now I see.
나는 눈 먼 적도 있었지만 지금은 볼수있어요

'Twas grace

I give her all my love
that's all I do
and if you saw my love
you'd love her too
and I love her
She gives me everything
and tenderly
A kiss my lover brings
She brings to me
And I love her
A love like ours
could never die
as long as I have you near me
Bright are the
stars that shine
dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
will never die And I love her

A love like ours
could never die
as long as I have you near me
Bright are the
stars that shine
dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
will never die And I love her
And I love her

And I love her

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Black bird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free

Blackbird fly, blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.

Blackbird fly, blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise,
You were only waiting for this moment to arise,
You were only waiting for this moment to arise

My father always promised us
That we would live in France
We'd go boating on the Seine
And I would learn to dance

We lived in Ohio then
He worked in the mines
On his dreams like boats
We knew we would sail in time

All my sisters soon were gone
To Denver and Cheyenne
Marrying their grownup dreams
The lilacs and the man

I stayed behind the youngest still
Only danced alone
The colors of my father's dreams
Faded without a sound

And I live in Paris now
My children dance and dream
Hearing the ways of a miner's life
In words they've never seen

I sail my memories of home
Like boats across the Seine
And watch the Paris sun
As it sets in my father's eyes again

There's a young man that I know,
His age is twenty one
He comes from down in Southern Colorado
Just out of the service,
And he's looking for his fun
Some day soon, I'm going with him,
Some day soon
My parents cannot stand him,
Cause he rides the rodeo
My father says that he will leave me crying
I would follow him right
Down the toughest road I know
Some day soon, going with him, some day soon
And when he comes to call my pa
Ain't got a good word to say
I guess it's cause he was just as wild
In the younger days
So blow you old blue Northern,
Blow my love to me
He's driving in tonight from California
He loves his damned old rodeo
As much as he loves me
Some day soon, going with him, some day soon

When he comes to call my pa
Ain't got a good word to say
I guess it's cause he was just as wild
In the younger days
So blow you old blue Northern,
Blow my love to me
He's driving in tonight from California
He loves his damned old rodeo
As much as he loves me
Some day soon, going with him, some day soon
Some day soon, going with him, some day soon

I pity the poor immigrant
Who wishes he would've stayed home,
Who uses all his power to do evil
But in the end is always left so alone.
That man whom with his fingers cheats
And who lies with ev'ry breath,
Who passionately hates his life
And likewise, fears his death.

I pity the poor immigrant
Whose strength is spent in vain,
Whose heaven is like Ironsides,
Whose tears are like rain,
Who eats but is not satisfied,
Who hears but does not see,
Who falls in love with wealth itself
And turns his back on me.

I pity the poor immigrant
Who tramples through the mud,
Who fills his mouth with laughing
And who builds his town with blood,
Whose visions in the final end
Must shatter like the glass.
I pity the poor immigrant
When his gladness comes to pass.

Like a bird on the wire,
like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.
Like a worm on a hook,
like a knight from some old fashioned book
I have saved all my ribbons for thee.
If I, if I have been unkind,
I hope that you can just let it go by.
If I, if I have been untrue
I hope you know it was never to you.

Like a baby, stillborn,
like a beast with his horn
I have torn everyone who reached out for me.
But I swear by this song
and by all that I have done wrong
I will make it all up to thee.
I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch,
he said to me, "You must not ask for so much."
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door,
she cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?"

Oh like a bird on the wire,
like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.

"Polly, Pretty Polly, come go long with me-
Polly, Pretty Polly, come go long with me-
Before we get married, some pleasure to see"

She jumped up behind him and away they did ride-
She jumped up behind him, away they did go-
Over the mountains, and valleys so low.

"Oh Willie, oh Willie, I'm a feared for my life-
Oh Willie, oh Willie, I'm a feared for my life-
I'm afraid you mean to murder me, and leave me behind.."

"Pretty Polly, Pretty Polly, you guessed about right-
Polly, Pretty Polly, you guessed about right-
I've been diggin' your grave, for the best part of last night."



She knelt down before him, pleading for her life-
She knelt down before him, pleading for her life,
"Let me be a single girl, if I cant be your wife.."

He stabbed her to the heart, and her heart blood did flow-
He stabbed her to the heart, and her heart blood did flow-
And into the grave, Pretty Polly did go.

He through a little dirt on her and started for home-
He through a little dirt over her and started for home-
Leaving nobody there, but the wild birds to moan..

A debt to the devil, Willie must pay-
A debt to the devil, Willie must pay-
For killing Pretty Polly, and running, and running, and running, and running away.

Desperado
Why don't you come to your senses
You been out riding fences
For so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
But I know that you've got your reasons
These things that are pleasing you
Can hurt you somehow
Don't you draw the queen of diamonds, boy
She'll beat you
If she's able
The queen of hearts
Is always your best bet
Now it seems to me some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones
That you can't get
Desperado
Oh, you ain't gettin' no younger
You pain and your hunger
They're drivingyou home
Freedom, Ah freedom
That's just some people talking
You're prisoners walking
Through this world all alone

Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the night time
From the day
You're losing all your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away
Desperado
Why don't you come to your senses
Come down from your fences
And open the gate
It may be raining
But there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you
You better let somebody love you
Before it's too late

Grandaddy look at the gypsies dancing in the firelight
Burning so brightly
How do they keep themselves warm on such a night
See all the fiddlers twirling while he plays his violin
Laughing and shouting
Have you seen anything like it in all your life

Grandma was cold and chide when we get in
She'll want to know what we've done and where we've been
Promise me you'll never tell, ya know your secret's safe with me
I can be trusted
Wrap me up in your winter coat
Wrap me up so tight
I never will feel the cold
I'll be safe tonight

Can we go down to the railroad track and watch the train go by
Shining like silver
I hear the whistle, the train is on it's way
Hold me up over your shoulder so that I can see the light
Over the pine trees
How I would like to go riding on the train

Tell me the story again about the time you went away
You went to Chicago, no one knew where you were
Why did you ever come back here after you had run away
I'm glad you did sir
Wrap me in your winter coat
Wrap me up so tight
I never will feel the cold
I'll be safe tonight

When you were young you sailed up on the sea.
Wrap me up in your winter coat,
Wrap me up so tight,
I never will feel the cold.
I'll be warm tonight

Grandaddy tell me the names of all the stars up in the sky
Is there a heaven?
Do you think there is a life after we die?
Why do some people have all the gold and silver they can spend?
Others have nothing.
It isn't fair and I've always wondered why.

Can I hold the match while you light your pipe?
I love the smell of tobacco in the air.
Tell me again about how it was before I came to be
In the old country

Wrap me up in your winter coat
Wrap me up so tight
I never will feel the cold
I'll be warm tonight

Wrap me up in your winter coat
Wrap me up so tight
I never will feel the cold
I'll be warm tonight

Muffin warm and basket brown
Smiling faces gathered round our dinner table
Close together, hand in hand

Chorus
I always cook with honey
To sweeten up the night
We always cook with honey
Tell me, hows your appetite
For some sweet love

Find in favor with your neighbor
Well, it can be so fine
Its easier than pie to be kind

Weve been searching for so long
Now our house has turned into a home

Chorus

Well, our door is always open
And theres surely room for more
Cooking where theres good love
Is never any chore

Some come to get to know us
Therell be a place set just for you
Sweet wine before dinner
That is surely bound to soothe

Chorus

The Lord has come
Let earth receive her King
Let every heart prepare Him room
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven and heaven and nature sing

Joy to the world
The Lord has come
Let earth receive her King
Let every heart prepare him room
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven and heaven and nature sing

Joy to the world
The Savior reigns
Let men their songs employ
While fields and floods
Rocks, hills, and plains

the sounding joy

the sounding joy

,
the sounding joy

Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the people everywhere you see
Joy to you and me

Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the people everywhere you see
Joy to you and me

He rules the world
With truth and grace
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love
And wonders of His love
And wonders, wonders of His love

Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the people everywhere you see
Joy to you and me

Joy to the people everywhere you see
Joy to you and me

Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
Through the fields we go
Laughing all the way.
Bells on bob-tail ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight.

Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

The first Noel the angel did say
was to certain poor shepards in fields as they lay:
in fields where they lay a keeping their sheep
on a cold winter's night that was so deep.
Noel Noel Noel Noel
born is the King of Israel.

They looked up and saw a star
shining in the east beyond them far:
and to the earth it gave great light
and so it continued both day and night.
Noel Noel Noel Noel
born is the King of Israel.

And by the light of that same star
three wise men came from the country far;
to seek for a King was their intent,
and to follow the star wherever it went.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
born is the King of Israel.

This star drew nigh to the north-west;
o'er Bethlehem it took its rest,
and there it did both stop and stay,
right over the place where Jesus lay.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
born is the King of Israel.

Then entered in those wise men three,
fell reverently upon their knee,
and offered there in his presence
their gold and myrrh and frankincense.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
born is the kind of Israel.

Then let us all with one accord
sing praises to our heavenly Lord,
that hath made heaven and earth of nought,
and with his blood mankind has bought.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
born is the King of Israel.

Joyful and triumphant
O come ye, o come ye to Bethlehem
Come and behold him
Born the king of angels
O come let us adore Him
O come let us adore Him
O come let us adore Him

Sing choirs of angels
Sing in exaltation
Oh sing all ye rivals
Of heaven above
Glory to God, Glory in the highest
O come let us adore Him
O come let us adore Him
O come let us adore Him
Christ the Lord
