Paul Jones [Manfred Mann's Earth Band]

You angel you
You got me under your wing
And the way you walk
And the way you talk
Feel I could almost sing

You angel you
You're as fine as ev'rythings fine
Though I just walk
And I watch you talk
Your memory's on my mind

Even though I cant sleep at night for trying
Well I never did feel this way before
Never did get up and walk the floor
If this is love then give me more
and more and more
and more and more

You angel you
You're as fine as fine can be
And the way you walk
And the way you talk
Is the way it ought to be

You angel you

Maybe I'll remember
The old house standing on the avenue
Till the day I die
Maybe I'll remember
The kids coming home from the playground
Sand in their shoes and their mother's eyes
Surely I'll recall the day in my life
When I looked in the eyes of a woman
And I knew right then and there that's my wife
And the world keeps turning
Like a big blue tumbling ball
And the times that you spend
With the ones you love just seem so small
Am I just a drop in the ocean after all
Maybe I will always
Think of myself as a young man
Holding both hands to the rod and the reel
Maybe I will always
Remember the day dad passed away
And I still don't know how to feel
There's nothing I love more than my family
When we all get to heaven
I hope for a minute


That they still remember me...
And the world keeps turning
Like a big blue tumbling ball
And the times that you spend
With the ones you love just seem so small
And the world keeps spinning
Like a big blue tumbling ball
And it's hard to believe
That you ever really played a part at all
Am I just a drop in the ocean after all
And the world keeps spinning
Like a big blue tumbling ball
And the world keeps spinning
Like a big blue tumbling ball
And it's hard to believe
That you ever really played a part at all
Am I just a drop in the ocean after all

Out on the road
Late at night
The highway is so inviting
Since you said that we were through
I remember what you told me
I'm trying to drive away these blues
I can do a lot of things
But let me tell you girl
I can't make it on my own in this great big world
The price I pay for loving you
Deep in my mind
I'm trying to fight
This lonely feeling that I face tonight
Never thought that I would lose
I can't shake this awful feeling
I'll never stop loving you
I can do a lot of things
But let me tell you girl
I can't make it on my own in this great big world
The price I pay for loving you
Do I love her any more


Or is it loneliness that I feel
Do our hearts still beat as one
Or are we held together by the years
The price I pay for loving you
I'm goin' home
It's started rainin'
Got to find a phone, hope she's waiting
Gonna say I've been a fool
Put my head back on my shoulders
Take a little time and see things through
I can do a lot of things
But let me tell you girl
That I can't make it on my own in this great big world
The price I pay for loving you
The price I pay for loving you

I'm jealous of the people, the people
I fall in love with, fall in love with
I'm jealous of the people, the people
I try to be more like, try to be more like
I'm even jealous of the people who hate me
Hate me more
The complete history of sexual jealousy part 17 to 24
I'm jealous of the man, the man
You broke the heart of, broke the heart of
I'm jealous of the man you knew before
In a life that I could never be the part of
There's more than meets the eye
In a way a stranger meets your eye
I know there's more


The complete history of sexual jealousy part 17 to 24
I'm jealous of the people, the people
I fall in love with, fall in love with
I'm jealous of the people, the people
I try to be more like, try to be more like
I'm even jealous of the people who hate me
Hate me more
The complete history of sexual jealousy part 17 to 24

'Twas in another lifetime
One of soil and blood
When blackness was a virtue
And the road was full of mud
I came in from the wilderness
A creature wild in form
Come in, she said, I'll give you
Shelter from the storm
Not a word was spoken between us
There was little risk involved
Everything up to that point
Had been left unresolved
Try imagining a place
Where it's always safe and warm
Come in, she said, I'll give you


Shelter from the storm
The deputy walks on hard nails
And the preacher rides a mount
But nothing really matters very much
It's the doom alone that counts
And the one-eyed undertaker
He blows a futile horn
Come in, she said, I'll give you
Shelter from the storm

In a dream it would seem
I went to those who close the open door
Turning the key, I sat and spoke to those inside of me

They answered my questions with questions
And pointed me into the night
Where the moon was a star-painted dancer
And the world was just a spectrum of light

They reached to my center of reason
And pulled on the touchstone that's there
The shock of that light had me reeling
And I fell into the depths of despair

They answered my questions with questions
And set me to stand on the brink
Where the sun and the moon were as brothers
And all that was left was to think

They answered my questions with questions
And pointed me into the night
The power that bore me had left me alone
To figure out which way was right

Verse 1:
Lover, lover why do you push, why do you push, why do you push. Baby, baby,
did you forget about me. 'Cause I've been standing in the back of your
life, back row centre just above the ice, please don't ask me how I've been
getting off.

CHORUS:
It's a fine line between pleasure and pain, you've done it once, you can do
it again, whatever you've done don't try to explain, it's a fine, fine line
between Pleasure and Pain.

Verse 2:
Sooner or later you'll find your place, find your body and you'll find your
grace. I won't ask you, how you've been getting off. No, I won't ask you
how you've been getting off.

Repeat chorus

Well you've got your diamonds
And you've got your pretty clothes
And the chauffeur drives your car
You let everybody know
But don't play with me
'cause you're playing with fire
Your mother she's an heiress
On the block in St Johns Wood
And your father be there with her
If he only could
But don't play with me
'cause you're playing with fire
You're playing with fire
Old man took her diamonds
And tiaras by the score
Now she gets her kicks in Stepney
Not in Knightsbridge any more


So don't play with me
'cause you're playing with fire
You're playing with fire
Well you've got your diamonds
And you've got your pretty clothes
And the chauffeur drives your car
You let everybody know
So don't play with me
'cause you're playing with fire
You're playing with fire

Post office clerk puts up a sign saying "Position Closed" and secretaries
turn off typewriters and put on their coats.
Janitors padlock the gates for security guards to patrol and bachelors phone
up their friends for a drink while the married ones turn on a chat show and
they'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow.

CHORUS:
And Nothing Ever Happens, nothing happens at all, the needle returns to the
start of the song and we all sing along like before. And we'll all be lonely
tonight and lonely tomorrow.

Telephone exchanges click while there's nobody there, the Martians could
land in the car park and no one would care. Closed circut cameras in
department stores shoot the same movie every day and the stars of these
films neither die nor get killed, just survive constant action replay.

Repeat chorus

By five o'clock everything's dead and every third car is a cab. Ignorant
people sleep intheir beds like the doped white mice in the college lab.
