If you stand in the light, you get the feel of the ride
And the music that plays in your ears
In your head you can hear, a voice so sweet and clear
And the music that plays in your head
As it flows up from the ground
Taking all who hear that sound
Close your eyes, its about to begin
Hardly daring to breath, a new life you perceive
You try hard not to break the spell
While at once it seems both, so far and yet so close
If you reach out to touch, it will be gone
As it flows up from the ground
Taking all who hear that sound
Close your eyes, its about to begin
Close your eyes, its about to begin
Close your eyes, its about to begin
I saw a light, just up ahead
But I couldn't seem
To rise up from my bed
I'm not alone, then I am
People seem
To think I'm Superman
But I watch for the love
I'm livin' in the day of the eagle
Eagle, not the dove
It's like a weight that brings me down
If I don't move, I'm on the ground
It's in my mind, it's in my soul
It's tellin' me the things I can't be told
It's a watch for the love
Livin' in the day of the eagle
Eagle, not the dove
'Nother day, 'nother night
I want to love, they want to fight
I need the time, I've got to be alone
I've got to meet a lover on my own
I watch for the love
Livin' in the day of the eagle
The sun don't shine
The moon don't move the tides,
to wash me clean
Sun don't shine
The moon don't move the tides,
to wash me clean
Why so unforgiving and why so cold
Been a long time crossing Bridge of Sighs
Cold wind blows
The Gods look down in anger,
on this poor child
Cold wind blows
And Gods look down in anger,
on this poor child
Why so unforgiving and why so cold
Lady love
I heard a voice and it soothed me
Lady love
A simple tune and it moved me
Move me and sooth me
Leading me home
Truly for me now
Lady love
Lady love
The man's a fool to be leaving
Dreams of love
Passing by like the seasons
Maybe I'll wake up
Oh, tell me I will
And find you there waiting
Lady love
Lady love
I need some warm and tender
Nights of love
Sweet and fine to remember
Maybe tomorrow
Your fever will find me
Waiting for me now
Lady love
I'll find you waiting, lady love
Find you there waiting, lady love
I'll find you waiting, lady love
In this place, filled with empty space
Your love holds the key, baby sympathize with me
I need you
Before I lost, your touch of life and grace
I knew that your sweet face could always comfort me
I love you
In this place, full of empty space
Your soft and tender love will always shine for me
I love you
Now I know, what it means to have you gone
I'm down on my knees baby see by me
"I think I've travelled here before,
And stood upon this velvet shore,
That looks out to the golden ship of Reason."
The man took to the gentle life,
The wind cried to the skies,
I felt that I would cry as I was leaving.
Tomorrow is a step away,
Twice removed from yesterday's sadness.
Still I am a dream away,
Twice removed from yesterday's sweet madness.
"And in my dream, I thought I heard
The truth behind the spoken word.
I thought that I had something to believe in."
But all too soon the dream was gone,
And in the dust that lingered on,
The tears that I'd shed tried to free me.
Tomorrow is a step away,
Twice removed from yesterday's sadness.
Still I am a dream away,
Sweet Angel
Fold your wings on me tonight
Sweet Angel
Take me up on your next flight
When your move has got me floating,
I'll find Jupiter with Mars
Rise up as pure mortals,
Take me to the stars
Sweet Angel
Turn away this fate less tide
Sweet Angel
As other worlds go spinning by
You’re the reason why I'm falling
From the edge up to the sun
Soul, mind and body melting, into one
Yeah!
(guitar solo)
Sweet Angel, time to gather every prey
Sweet Angel, pursed from lips of Ruby Red
With the theme of great intention
I will play my part
There's a time for livin'
And a time for love
There's a time for forgiving y'all
And a time to shove
There's more won than lost
More hoping you to spare
And it's waitin', waitin'
Don't you spend your whole life hesitatin'
Come and tell the truth
Shame the devil
There's more light than dark
Honey, shine down on you[Incomprehensible]
And baby you'll need the truth
This whole world has had enough
Of people giving up, yeah
And it's waitin', waitin'
Don't you spend your whole life hesitatin'
Come on, tell the truth
Shame the devil
And it's waitin', waitin'
Don't spend your whole life hesitatin'
Come on, tell the truth
Shame the devil
But don't you know that it's waitin', ample waitin'
Don't you spend your whole life hesitatin'
Come on, let loose
I could brave the storm
Hold on to the guiding light
With you by my side
And your arms around me tight
We could fall into ecstasy
Somewhere beyond the night
And drown beneath the waves
Of our own love
Drown in a sea of love
Chorus:
Drown in a sea of love
Drown yeah
Drown in a sea of love
Drown yeah
Let the world go on
Let it glow in its own light
We know that we belong
Together now and for all time
We will be swept away
Far from our conscious mind
To drown beneath the waves
Of our own love
Drown in a sea of love
Repeat Chrous then solo
Repeat Intro
We could fall … etc
Rock me baby, rock me all night long
Rock me baby, honey, rock me all night long
I want you to rock me baby, like my back ain't got no
bone
Roll me baby, like you roll a wagon wheel
I want you to roll me baby, like you roll a wagon wheel
Want you to roll me baby, you don't know how it makes me
feel
Rock me baby, honey, rock me slow
Yeah, rock me pretty baby, baby rock me slow
Day is over, fading light
I don’t want you to go tonight
I would die for one more hour in your arms
Once were lovers, special friends
Losers now at our stories end
We two together for this one last goodbye
Take this moment keep it fine
Hold it safe in your mind
Taste this pain coz its all that remains of our love
Chorus:
Where the sorrow lives
Where the time forgives
Don’t forget that I’m dyin’ here inside
Over you
Looking back now wondering
‘Bout the sadness that love can bring
And how time turned our bonds into chains
I can see now, I was wrong
Acted bad for so long
Now I know that I needed a show something more
Repeat Chorus then Robin guitar solo
You had to see the lights from the other side
Now the situation’s tight you’re on the slide
Well things didn’t go your way so you had to run
And now you think “well, okay but where’s the fun?”
Chorus:
It’s a natural fact – opposites attract
It’s a natural fact – call it destiny
Now it’s cold out on the street and the night is long
And the music you found so sweet is just a siren song
Now you dream about a home you used to hate
You don’t have to be alone it’s not too late
Repeat Chorus then solo
Chorus:
Love won’t wait forever
Make up your mind
Love won’t wait forever this time
We’d be great together
Give me a sign
Love won’t wait forever this time
I don’t know the lives you chose
Or where it may lead
Only hope can satisfy your need
I don’t understand the pain
That pushes you on
You’ve been flying solo so long
Repeat Chorus
Robin guitar solo
Standing where the roads divide
Is fine for today
I don’t wanna push you either way
I can only say so much
Your mind is your own
Take me now or make it all alone
The light is strong and the man is weak
And the world walks in between
So rise above on the wings of love
See and let yourself be seen
See and let yourself be seen
So fill your cup and drink it on up
For tomorrow never comes
If you wield the rod, answer to your God
But me I'll be up and gone
I'll be up and gone, gone, I'll be up and a gone
If the sea was glass and the land all gone
Would you still be a friend to me
When my time has passed, is it to much to ask
For a little bit of sympathy, just a little bit of sympathy Lord
A little bit of sympathy, a little bit of sympathy Lord, yeah
Little bit of sympathy, little bit of sympathy
A little bit of sympathy, a little bit of sympathy
Inside out, your love has turned me upside down
Inside out, your love has turned me upside down
Please don't mess me baby
You got me spinnin' round and round
First you say on monday
That your love is true
I only hope that someday
I'll believe in you
Inside out, your love has turned me upside down
Please don't mess me baby
You got me spinnin' round and round
{solo}
First you say you need me
Then you take it back
Baby please believe me
My mind's about to crack
Inside out, your love has turned me upside down
Please don't mess me baby
You got me spinnin' round and round
Inside out, your love has turned me upside down
I'm tellin ya
Inside out, your love has turned me upside down
Please have mercy baby
A veces mis sueños son
Un mar de preguntas que no sé responder
Me pierdo una y otra vez
Y no encuentro salidas a mi alrededor
Pero éste amor tan real, cósmica universal
Que yo siento por ti
Me acelera y me enamora, me lleva hacia ti
Contigo sólo quiero vivir
Y a veces creo que soy feliz como soy
Mi fuerza eres tú
Y no hay nadie que me entregue
Más amor, más calor y más luz
Mi fuerza eres tú
Y a tu lado sólo quiero estar
A veces sin miedos voy
Y otras me escondo sin saber dónde ir
Me enredo una y otra vez
De noches en vela y sin respiración
Pero este amor tan real, cósmica universal
Que yo siento por ti
Me acelera y me enamora de ti
Contigo sólo quiero vivir
Y a veces creo que soy feliz como soy
Mi fuerza eres tú
Y no hay nadie que me entregue
Más amor, más calor y más luz
Mi fuerza eres tú, ya no hay nadie más
Y a veces creo que soy feliz
Mi fuerza eres tú
Y a tu lado sólo quiero estar
Deja que te muestre que soy tuyo
Y que no tengo temor
Aparta mis dudas, contigo sólo quiero vivir
Contigo mi amor
Soy tan feliz como soy
Mi fuerza eres tu
Soy tan feliz como soy
Mi fuerza eres tú
Y no hay nadie que me entregue
Más amor, más calor y más luz
Mi fuerza eres tú
Y a tu lado sólo quiero estar
Soy tan feliz, mi fuerza eres tú
Y no hay nadie que me entregue
Más amor, más calor y más luz
Mi fuerza eres tú
There’s a blood red vision
In the sunset sky
A time for big decision
A time to testify, oh yeah!
When you’re tired of losing
When the well runs dry
When it comes to choosing
Tell me why why why
Chorus:
No time for running, hiding
No backsliding
You can’t take something for nothing, oh no
Ev’ry body’s watching you now
When the light is falling
On the twisted tree
When the voodoo’s calling
You’ll remember me
Repeat Chorus
Yeah, yeah – they’re watching you
Yeah, yeah - ev’ry body’s watching
Ev’ry body’s watching you now
We were laughing in a daydream
With the world beneath our feet
And the sun smiled on the water
Where the skies and the ocean meet
We was a spellbound
Ohh spellbound
We were listening down on the rainbow
As the leaves fell to the ground
Whispering as they tumble
And the wind laughed at the sound
We were spellbound
Ohh spellbound
We were spellbound
Ohh spellbound
We were children in a garden
Where the flowers kiss the sky
And the birds sang out in wonder
As the day went sailing by
We were spellbound
Spellbound
Ohh spellbound
Spellbound
Ohh spellbound
When surrounded by confusion
And the future seems unclear
When the road has not been chosen
By yourself or someone near
Chorus:
I climb above the rooftops
Where the air is fresh and sweet
I climb above the rooftops
And leave the world
And leave the world beneath my feet
I wipe away the traces
Of the city from my skin
There are no tired old faces
Out where the dreams begin
Repeat Chorus then solo
Caroline, Caroline
Let me take you home tonight
Make you mine, Caroline
Changing darkness into light
It’s a funny game we’re playing
You try to play it down when you see me low
You know what my eyes are saying
I believe you readin' me like a book
You give me your'a cool reception
You try to fool yourself but you won’t fool me
You give me such a cool reception
If I get a chance I can make you see
Will your kiss be like a miracle
When the words are left behind
Could a feeling be more lyrical
Than the dream that’s in my mind
Repeat Chorus then solo
Ain't no lights around this harbor
The sea has turned and gone to bed
Far off cries the lonely siren
Or is that a voice within my head
Right or wrong I knew what she was saying
Cried out her heart such a lovely face
Behind her eyes the sun is dying
Maybe the moon can take it's place
Out there ships upon the winds are dancing
Tired old hands the sails unfold
Around their eyes the wind is sighing
Maybe the end a tale untold
Far off cries the lonely siren
Say what you want
I ain’t ever gonna change my mind
Do what you want
I only wanna stay alive
And when you realise
What you’ve turned aside
And cry one thousand tears
I would still be here for you
Fly on the wind
Hide your face behind the clouds
But I won’t give in
Your love I can’t do without
If you think it possible
For you to walk away
And stay away for one thousand years
I would still be here for you
I would still be here
I would still be here
I would still be here
For you
Then solo
Traveling that wind and laugh at the crowd, ummm the fool and me
Howl at the moon baby yeah out loud, the fool and me
And ohh oh, where ever we go
We keep the spirit free
Ohh nobody knows
No one but the fool and me
Stretching on out and feeling fine, the fool and me
Two fools dancing on the hands of time, yeah
The fool and me
And ohh oh, where ever we go
We keep the spirit free
Ohh nobody knows
No one but the fool and me
Running like the wind and laugh at the crowd, the fool and me
Howl at the moon yeah out loud loud, the fool and me
And ohh oh where ever we go
We keep the spirit free
Ohh nobody knows
I know men who cheat and lie
I know some who pray
Others try to hide their secrets away
I’m the kind who toes the line
Try to pay my dues
Now it seems that I got nothing to lose
Chorus:
I’m gonna tear it up tonight
This is my time
I’m gonna tear it up tonight
Takin’ what’s mine
I’ve been keepin’ score
Time I took some more
I’m gonna tear it up tonight
So stand aside
Took away my heart and soul
Left me black and blue
Now I think your debt to me’s overdue
Dug too deep and now you’ve found
Something much too strong
Hope you realise what you’ve taken on
Repeat Chorus then Robin guitar solo
You were all the rays of sunlight
Shinin' gold to me
Every color of the rainbow
I was blessed by her decree
You were every moment's magic
Joy beyond compare
You were all the rays of sunlight
I was lost without a care
Victims of the fury
Shadows in the dark
Victims of the fury
Arrows found their mark
So we lived our days in rapture
Like the world could never end
We weren't thinkin' 'bout the future
We had time enough to spend
We were blessed as though in heaven
We were messengers of joy
There were angels all around us
There was none who dared destroy
Victims of the fury
Shadows in the dark
Victims of the fury
Arrows found their mark
Then the world collapsed around us
And the tables overturned
We were lambs before the slaughter
We were driven out and burned
Yes, the world collapsed around us
And the archers found their mark
We were victims of the fury
We were shadows in the dark
Yeah, victims of the fury
Shadows in the dark
Oh, victims of the fury
Arrows found their mark
Victims of the fury
Shadows in the dark
Victims of the fury
There beneath the diamond sky
caviar and the moon light wine
she has'nt yet made up her mind
if she'll take me
See my love it's stoned indeed
got my future at your feet baby
the simple life ------!
you can take me
And every day gets stronger
everyday it grows and grows
I can't wait much longer
Round and round in dreams I go
set me free baby or tie the bow
up or down let me know
!!! oh dont ignore me !!!
And everyday gets stronger
and everyday it grows and grows
I can't wait much longer
Get my coat and I'll catch the train
make my way down to new orleans
tryin to save -----!
oh to console me
And everyday gets stronger
everyday it grows and grows
I can't wait much longer
And everyday gets stronger
everyday it grows and grows
Hannah, walking in beauty, like the night
Hannah, soft as the early morning light
Nothing I do, brings me to you
Hannah, let me love you
Hannah, distance surrounds you everwhere
Hannah, living in memories I can't share
Living a life, wide as the sky
Hannah, mmmm let me love you
Hannah, queen of my nights, light of my day
Hannah, slowly the hours fade away
Wishes for you, never came true
Hannah, mmm let me love you
Let me love you
Got to love you
Mmmmm, love you
It is the face that is the mirror
It is the eyes to look within
And the door remains open
A passing dream calls you in, calls you in
It is the mind that knows no distance
And yet how far no one can say
While the hand is helplessly waiting
With each breath a life begins, a life begins
Oo, don't they see it's just like sleeping
Please don't wonder oh, how they know
While you dream a child is weeping
And each tear's a soul, for earth below, for earth below
For earth below
For earth below
For earth below
Llévame tú me dijiste y yo
No lo llegué a dudar
Y te saqué de allí, voy a ser
Quien te acompañe hoy
Voy a enseñarte a ver
Todo lo que hay en mí
Quiero que sepas que nunca voy a abandonarte
Y aunque cambie lo demás
Yo no te pienso cambiar
Nadie me dijo que un día
Iba a escuchar tu voz
Diciendo que me querías
Hasta morir de amor
Toda una vida contigo
Viéndote sonreír
Quiero tenerte siempre cerca de mí
Esta vez
No pediré perdón
Tan solo tratare
De hacerte más feliz
Llegare
Donde haya que llegar
Para escucharte
Y para hacerte oír
Quiero que sepas que nunca voy a abandonarte
Y aunque cambien los demás
Yo nunca voy a cambiar
Nadie me dijo que un día
Iba a escuchar tu voz
Diciendo que me querías
Hasta morir de amor
Toda una vida contigo
Viéndote sonreír
Quiero tenerte siempre cerca de mí
Toda una vida contigo
Viéndote sonreír
Quiero tenerte siempre cerca de mí
Oh a stitch in time, just about saved me
From going through the same old moves
And this cat is nine
He still suffers
He's going through the same old grooves
But that stone just keeps on rolling
Bringing me some real bad news
Takers get the honey
Givers sing the blues
Too many cooks yeah spoil such a good thing
I know I laughed out loud but that was then
Ain't it funny, a fool and his money
Always seemed to find was those real good friends
That stone just keeps on rolling
Bringing me some real bad news
The takers get the honey
The givers sing the blues
Well that stone keeps on rolling
Bringing me some real bad news
The takers get the honey
The givers sing the blues
A stitch in time, helps to unfold me
Circus starts at eight so don't be late
Please be so kind not to wake me
I think I'll just sit this one out
Well I'm too rolling stoned
I'm too rolling stoned, yeah
Like a rolling stone
Just, just, just like a rolling stone
Rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling stone
Yeah, too rolling stoned
I have seen our life apart
and I've, seen our life together
I know here in my heart
what's bringing me most pain
I have tried to see the good
and I, wish for life forever
But now I realize
can't go that way again
I don't want you
I don't need you, anymore
In the hope that this is true
I'm turnin' away from you
and This Blue Love
You say that there were times
When our love was at full flood
And you and I believed, we were unbreakable
But the love has ebbed away
with a cooling of the blood
And the storm that we went through, was unmistakable
I don't want you
I don't need you, anymore
In the hope that this is true
I'm turnin' away from you
and This Blue Love
{Bridge}
I don't want you,
I don't need you...
There’s a stranger staring back
And you in the mirror
Guessed that you’re a man on the run
There’s a ghost from the past
Looking over your shoulder
Your chance to escape is a million to one
But your eyes are on the future
But your back’s against the wall
You’re walking on a tightrope
Watch you don’t fall
Chorus:
Coz its down to the wire
Time to deliver
The hang tough
When you’re under the gun
Your rhythm and a fire
There’s a hand on the trigger
Nowhere to run
When you’re under the gun
You were captain of the ship
And master of the game
Anything you want it to be
Oh but then the rules got changed
And the ship went up in flames
And you found yourself
Lost out at sea
You’ve been counted out of action
Scattered in the wind
Are you walking on water
Coming back again?
Repeat Chorus then solo
You’ve been counted … etc
Let's throw a party, let's invite everybody
Let's drop some glasses on the floor
Turn up the noise, have some fun with the neighbors
Let's have them banging on the door
We're havin' a party, everyone is invited
Welcome to our wedding night
Ring up some friends and ask them all over
Let's do this whole thing up right
Then we'll turn out the lights when they've all said "goodnight"
Let the sweet wine of life ever glow
Turn out the light when they've all said "goodnight"
Let the sweet wine of love overflow
Yes, and down in the street where they're wheelin' and dealin'
The corner crowd all see the light
And they'll smile at the window, Oh they know how we're feelin'
Welcome to our wedding night
Yes, we'll turn out the light when they've all said "goodnight"
Let the sweet wine of life ever glow
Turn out the light when they've all said "goodnight"
Let the sweet wine of love overflow
And we'll turn out the light when they've all said "goodnight"
Let the sweet wine of life ever glow
Turn out the light when they've all said "goodnight"
Let the sweet wine of love overflow
Somebody calling
calling my name
somebody walking
over my grave
I was back in the arms of my baby
I would sleep in the arms of a dream
I would sit in a church for my baby
And I'm welcome, do you know what I mean?
Somebody sign
sign for me
somebody crying
for me
I was back in the arms of my baby
I would sit in the arms of a dream
I was test in the chance of my lady
I was lost in the desert
Outrun by my past
I cried and the God’s took pleasure
When I stumbled they laughed
Looked like my life was shattered
Pick it up let it fall
There was a time it mattered
Now I just don’t care at all
I woke up feeling desolate
Tried hard to understand
I asked her for some water
She filled my mouth with sand
Looked like my life was shattered
Pick it up let it fall
There was a time it mattered
Now I just don’t care at all
Shattered, Baby I’m shattered
Robin guitar solo
I was walking in my sleep
My hands and feet were tied
The night was in so deep
I could not tell she lied
Looked like my life was shattered
Pick it up let it fall
There was a time it mattered
Now I just don’t care at all
Shattered, Baby I’m shattered
Read your letters
Line by line
Same old story
Doing just fine
You tell me that he loves you
But babe I believe you’re lyin’
You know I’ll love you better second time
Come back to me babe
Pack your clothes
No-one’s watching
Coz no-one knows
Now he don’t really want you
So stealin’ you ain’t no crime
I know you’ll love me better second time
He’s treats you dirty
Plays around
Leaves you hurtin’
But you won’t, no you won’t back down
The phone is ringing
What’s the news
Thought it over
Got nothing to lose
You say you’re on the run now
Coz neither ones worth a dime
So babe they’ll never be no second time
Stop your stallin’
Holdin’ out
Hear me calling
But you won’t, no you won’t back down
Robin guitar solo
He’s treats you dirty
Plays around
Leaves you hurtin’
But you won’t, no you won’t back down
Stop your stallin’
Holdin’ out
Hear me calling
A gypsy sings, of birds with broken wings
and painted wheels that never roll
Who hears the sighs? Who stole this paradise?
Who took the fire from his soul?
And where are the roads to freedom?
Where is the life his father knew?
Where is the love, where is the joy
and tell me, where are the roads to freedom?
Now truthful life, who hears the soldier cry?
He was a hero of the war
But no one comes near, he sheds a lonely tear
and wonders what it all was for
And where are the roads to freedom?
Where is the life his father knew?
Where is the love, where is the joy
and tell me, where are the roads to freedom?
Solo
And where are the roads to freedom?
Where is the life his father knew?
Where is the love, where is the joy
and tell me, where are the roads to freedom?
So long, oh how I hate to see you go
So long, oh how I hate to see you go
And the way that I will miss you
I guess you will never know
We've been together so long, to have to separate this way
We've been together so long, to have to separate this way
I'm gonna let you go ahead on baby
Pray that you'll come back home some day
You said you once had loved me, but now I guess you have
changed your mind
You said you once had loved me, but now I guess you have
changed your mind
Why don't you reconsider baby
I got no frustrations playin' on my mind
No complications, I guess I'm doin' fine
I got no money, can't even pay my rent
I end up on one thing, and to me its heaven sent
I've got my pride, hiding inside
I've got my pride
Tell me tell me now
I've got my pride, hiding inside
I've got my pride
I saw a man this mornin' sitting both sides of the fence
Being diplomatic, had lost his common sense
If he had his wits about him, you'de know he was a fool
Cuz if you can't find no solution, then you got to play it cool
I've got my pride, hiding inside
I've got my pride
Let me hear ya say it babe
I've got my pride, hiding inside
I've got my pride
I've got my pride, hiding inside
I've got my pride
I've got my pride, hiding inside
Well I've been down so long that I can't get up
Drink my life from an empty cup
I ain't taking no messin' from the likes of you
There ain't no messin' now mess with the blues
Messin' the blues, messin' the blues
Messin' the blues, messin' the blues
Well lonely days and lonely nights
Tell your honey that it just ain't right
Well baby baby don't let me be blue
Cuz there ain't no messin' like messin the blues
Messin' the blues
Fine little belly got a gleam in my eye
Ask no questions and I get no lies
I ain't no angel but I end up used
Down, down, down with the blues
Down with the blues
Dealin' the blues

I want to be, I got to be
Man of the world
I want to be, I got to be

I want to be, I got to be
Man, man, man
I want to be, I got to be
I really tried to make ends meet
Keep your vow, turn off the streets

All the time I was achieving and a stealing, yeah
I want to be, I got to be
Man of the world
I want to be, I got to be
Man of the world
I want to be, I got to be

They were double dealers and a four-time losers, yeah
I want to be, I got to be
Man of the world
I want to be, I got to be
Man of the world
I want to be, I got to be
Man, man, man
I want to be, I got to be
Oh, yeah
I want to be, I got to be
Man of the world
I want to be, I got to be
Man of the world
I want to be, I got to be
The heat is like an oven
Give me a little slack
One more to make a dozen
And it’s about to crack
I’m a dancer who can’t keep time
A reason without a rhyme
My heart is like a window
And it’s about to break
If you could see right in though
You’d know how much to take
I’m an actor without a play
A believer who wants to stay
Chorus:
It’s a love attack
It’s a love attack
Baby I warn you now
It’s a love attack
The will begins to weaken
And then begins to snap
Your love is like a beacon
You love is like a trap
I’m a gangster without a crime
A gambler without a dime
Long misty days
Told me they would change their ways
Once in a while will come my way
The thrill is gone
Misty days linger on and on
Once in a while is here to stay
We feed this fire
Lovers in a nursery rhyme
The words belong to you
And the melody was mine
Long misty days
Told me in a million ways
Once in a while will come my way
Oh how the moon
Shining at a lonely room
Weeping willow cry for me
Sing me a song
Simple as the day is long
I love someone crying to be free
And take the sky
And tell me if the moon is blue
And if it's meant to be
That my melody was used
Long misty days
Told me in a million ways
Once in a while will come my way
Long misty days
Told me they would change the ways
Falling in love was the last thing I had on my mind
Holding you so warm that I thought I could never find
Chorus:
Sitting here alone just trying to decide
To go on alone or stay by your side
Then I stop myself coz I don’t wanna cry
I just can’t find the answers to the
Questions that keep going through my mind
Isn’t it time?
Maybe this time we should hesitate
Taking the chance could be my mistake (isn’t it time)
Falling in love would be tempting fate
Falling in love could be my mistake
I’ve seen visions of someone like you in my life
I know that you’re reaching out holding me through the
darkest night
Repeat Chorus then solo then repeat chorus from ‘isn’t
it time’
(I Would) Still be Here for You
Written by Robin Trower and Dave Bronze
Say what you want
I ain’t ever gonna change my mind
Do what you want
I only wanna stay alive
And when you realise
What you’ve turned aside
And cry one thousand tears
I would still be here for you
Fly on the wind
Hide your face behind the clouds
But I won’t give in
Your love I can’t do without
If you think it possible
For you to walk away
And stay away for one thousand years
I would still be here for you
I would still be here
I would still be here
I would still be here
For you
Then solo
You've got your house, you've got your car
You live up on the hill among the stars
You say you did what you had to do
But was it really worth what they put you through
You know these things we believed in
It didn't touch you at all
I hate to see you like this baby
With your back to the wall
You lost your heart, when you lost your nerve
Maybe you lost your grip on that first curve
You used to talk about bein' free
Why, you're so tied up you can't even breathe
You know these things we believed in
They didn't touch you at all
I hate to see you like this baby
With your back to the wall
Money into money
Money into money
Money into money
Money into money
You're into money, into money
You're into money, money
Into money yeah, yeah
Into money
Into money, into money, into money yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Is your life just a stolen dream?
Full of things that will not pass
Is your mind now a constant stream
Of broken fragments from the past?
Why don’t you try to break away
Why don’t you break away
Chorus:
If you really want to find love – take it from the start
If you really want to find love – look into your own
heart
Possessions are a wasted love
Giving no love in return
To spend your life trying to own enough
Proves you have much to learn
Nobody else is keeping score
No one is keeping score, oh no
Repeat Chorus then solo
Why don’t you try … etc
Tell your heart to lead and be forgiven
Love can be a light but like a stone
Be a friend indeed and vote for living
I want cha home
I want cha home
Remember what we are to one another
You don’t see our love as dead and gone
We have come too far to call it over
I want cha home
I want cha home
I want cha home
I want cha home
Robin guitar solo
Turn another leaf and make it better
Turn away the grief and make it new
I want cha home
I want cha home
I want cha home
I want cha home
Robin guitar solo
Turn another leaf and make it better
Turn away the grief and make it new
I want cha home
I want cha home
I want cha home
He’s so selfish you know its true
Baby he’ll pull the rug right under you
He’s so selfish it just ain’t far
He’s got more fancy moves than Fred Astaire
Now you’re just one more string to his bow
But baby I think there’s something you should know
He’s getting’ careless
He’s getting’ careless
He’s getting’ careless
And he’s gonna lose your love
Don’t you worry I making plans
With luck he’ll play straight into my hands
What’s the hurry just take your time
The punishment he gets will fit the crime
Every ace that you deal will return
I’m just waiting for bridges to burn
He’s getting’ careless
He’s getting’ careless
He’s getting’ careless
He’s getting’ careless
He’s getting’ careless
He’s getting’ careless
And he’s gonna lose your love
Robin guitar break
Now you’re just one more string to his bow
But baby I think there’s something you should know
He’s getting’ careless
He’s getting’ careless
He’s getting’ careless
He’s getting’ careless
He’s getting’ careless
He’s getting’ careless
Caledonia, Caledonia
Seeing you walk by
Make a river twist and shout
Chase the birds down from the sky
Caledonia, who could own ya?
Spirit of romance.
Caledonia, Caledonia dance.
Caledonia, Caledonia
Ya tempt a devils greed
Make an angel lose its wings
Make a fool right outta me
Caledonia, Who could own ya?
Spirit of romance.
Caledonia, oh Caledonia dance.
Caledonia, Caledonia,
Ya make my senses fly.
Give me reason to believe
And I don't wonder why
Caledonia, who could own ya?
Spirit of romance.
Caledonia, ohhhh, Caledonia dance.
Caledonia, Caledonia
Yeah, satisfy my soul.
Caledonia, Caledonia
Yeah, groove me slow.
Caledonia, Caledonia.
Robin Trower - Bluebird lyrics
Album: In City Dreams
Sittin' in the wood alone,
On silver tree that turned to stone –
Branches growin' overhead;
Make your house and feather bed.
Shiny beak and shiny eyes,
Shiny winter paradise.
Singin' to the settin' sun;
Prayin' for the day that's done;
Growin' qui'ter as you watch the snow:
Fallin' down – down - Down – down…
If you want to know his heart?,
Listen… Listen to the bluebird sing…
If I had a voice like thine -
Melody like summer wine -
From sunshine islands, I would bring
Music to the newborn king.
Growin' qui'ter as you watch the snow:
Fallin' down – down - Down – down…
If you want to know his heart?,
Listen… Listen to the bluebird sing…
Instrumental Break
Growin' qui'ter as you watch the snow:
Fallin' down – down - Down – down…
If you want to know his heart?,
Listen… Listen to the bluebird sing…
Do do-do do do-do do…
Do do-do do do-do do…
Do do-do do do-do do…
Do do-do do do-do do…
Do do-do do do-do do…
Dry your eyes-wipe away your tears-my precious one
Everyday, some way, some where we'll fall
The world must turn, that's why we try to keep movin' on
It's always been that way … that's all.
Now, I'm not sayin' you won't find somethin' to believe in
Even the search can define the truth
But first time impressions can be so deceivin'
When somethin' does your heart, you just turn it loose
And we will meet another time
The sun on our face
And we will meet another time
Another time, another place
There will be days when you just want to give it up
But things don't always have to go our way
So take a drink, when they pass you the cup
The bitter can taste so sweet, another day
And we will meet another time
The sun upon our face
And we will meet another time
Another time, another place
(guitar solo)
So dry your eyes-wipe away your tears-my precious one
And watch as da-ays go spinnin' by
The moments are lost when you hear the siren song
The spell will break when you hear first one cry
And we will meet another time
The sun upon our face
And we will meet another time
When you are gone
Shadows of doubt come out
All coz the night’s
They get so long
That’s when our love is found
You can’t erase all the fears
And make the ghosts disappear
Just like you do when you hear
I am gone
Chorus:
O baby
All that I want I is the reassurance
That love will stay
All that I need is your heart to beat with mine
The light’ll never fade
Away
Sometimes the miles
Can open up all the doors
Wipe out the distance between us
Talk all the rumours
Just say your heart is still true
I just wanna hear it from you
All that we have
We can’t lose when the mind is sound
I make life easy just by laughin'
I was the first to see the joke
When they said I'm afraid we are losing
Don't like the way you gave up hope
Alethea, Alethea
Don't let them put the blame on you
What seems so bad now
Could easily change for the better
I turned away from all that hurt me
Now just a faded memory
Ohh get on track sister baby
Love the love that wants to be
Alethea, Alethea
Don't let them put the blame on you
What seems so bad now
Could easily change for the better
Alethea, Alethea
Don't let them put the blame on you
What seems so bad now
I don’t wanna play it safe girl
Fact I don’t wanna play at all
I think it’s time to get serious
Let’s turn this fight into a brawl
I want to see what you’ve been hiding
Under that sweet talk southern crawl
I think its time to get serious
Let’s turn this fight into a brawl
Chorus
Comes a time when fighting words
Are just a line through what’s said or heard
But when two hearts would beat as one
They must show what they’ve become
Let’s turn it, baby let’s turn it, let’s turn it
Let’s turn this fight into a brawl
What you got is so exciting
Why keep it under lock and key?
I think we could between the two of us
Tie this thing up or set it free
But when two hearts would beat as one
They must show what they’ve become
Baby lt’s turn it, c’mon let’s turn it, let’s turn it
Let’s turn this fight into a brawl
Then solo
