I remember finding out about you
Everyday my mind is all around you
Looking out of my lonely gloom
Day after day
Bring it home maybe make it soon
I give my love to you
I remember holding you while you sleep
Everyday I feel the tears that you weep
Looking out of my lonely gloom
Day after day
Bring it home maybe make it soon
I give my love to you
Looking out of my lonely gloom
Day after day
Bring it home maybe make it soon
I give my love to you
I remember finding out about you
Everyday my mind is all around you
Looking out of my lonely gloom
Day after day
Bring it home maybe make it soon
The more you see of your love
The more you must try
Try to throw away those reasons to cry
It's no surprise you wonder why
You ever believed it
But still you have a reason why
You wanna conceive it
There's no real reason to deny
All that you need's inside
I say there's no reason to cry
All all that you see that is love
You ask yourself why
They know why you feel the pain go by
You don't ask why you read the news
And you better believe it
As clouds go by you see anew
And you wanna perceive it
There's no real reason to deny
All that you see pass by
Is in order to see you and I
All that you see pass by
There's so much I wanna say to you, but love your so far away
And I don't mind telling you that I miss you more each day
Well I can hide the sadness. You can't see it in my eyes
And I just wish I could be with you tonight
So send me your love, and set this poor heart free
You know the sun won't shine till you come back to me
Well I can't keep pretending. You know I can't go on this way
I've never known a hurt so bad. And it just won't go away
I'm travelling in these teardrops, and I can't put up a fight
And I just wish I could hold you close tonight
So send me your love, or set this poor heart free
You know the sun won't shine till you come back to me
So send me your love, or set this poor heart free
You know the sun won't shine till you come back to me
The sun won't shine till you come back to me.
Send me your love
Send me your love
Many's the time I've been troubled in mind
And I've not known where to go
Deeper and darker, no way to believe
Lying and dying, no way to conceive
Making believe it's not true
What in the world can you do?
Sail away, give it all to another day
Sail away, throw it over your shoulder
You may find in your heart
That you've made a new start with a future not so bad
Then you can show all the feelings you know
With a will to carry on, carry on, carry on
Then you can know all the feelings you show
And you'll know just where to go
Deeper and darker's no way to believe
Lying and dying's no way to conceive
Making believe it's not true
What in the world can you do?
Sail away, give it all to another day
Sail away, throw it over your shoulder
You may...
I'm making it this time
I'm making it this time
I'm making it this time around
Before I lose my mind again
Before I lose my mind
Time she rules my mind
I sit here marking time
Well, I'm well in with the rockin' machine
Put me down, you don't know where I've been
Oh, I'm a rockin' machine
Lately, I've been thinking
What makes a man
But I can't for the life of me
Get away from the rockin' machine
Oh, I'm a rocking machine
Oh, I'm a washing machine
All I needed was your smile
Sayin' it alright, I don't mind
All I wanted was my chance
Baby, I could learn to dance
Well, love is easy, love is strange
Different people, different games
People, people, love a lot
Feel the love inside your heart
Love is easy, easy
When you've opened up your heart
Love is easy, easy
When you know you'll never part
Well, love is easy, love is strange
Different people, different games
People, people, love a lot
Feel the love inside your heart
Love is, love is easy, said easy
When you've opened up your heart
Easy, easy
When you know you'll never part
I said easy, c'mon easy
When you've opened up your heart
Yeah easy, easy
When you know you'll never part
Said easy, easy when you know
You're not alone, easy, easy
There's a magic in the air
Reach into my soul
Something down inside
Love can't hide
There's a charge come over me
Can never change my mind again
I was lookin' to be free
Love's the key
And in my dreams, she's with me every night
Everything I do for her helps me see right
What can I say, what can I do?
All of my life I've been a victim of you
What can I say or do?
Lost inside your love
What can it be, who can I see?
All of your life you've been the winner in me
What can I say or do?
Lost inside your love
Is it any wonder, there's no reason why
Is it all because I left it open wide for your pride
To leave me one more time
Are you leaving me one more time?
What can I say, what can I do?
All of my life I've been a winner with you
What can I say or do?
Lost inside your love
Lost inside your love
He's the king of the road
The old man, the child
The joker runnin' wild, makin' it funny
He's of no fixed abode
When he carries the load
He'll do anything he can to make it funny
But he'll never say die
If he's livin' a lie
Pick up his hat and go
If there's reason to cry
He'll just make it a sigh
And wander on down the road
He's a natural friend
With the money to lend
Or whatever it takes to turn you on, too
He's the father, the son
He don't owe anyone
All his debts are all paid
With his confection
Then he'll wander away
With no time in his way
Pick up his hat and go
He'll never say die
If he's livin' a lie
Just wander on down the road
Wander on down the road
[guitar solo (Pete Ham)]
And he'll wander away
With no time in his way
Pick up his hat and go
He never said die
He was livin' a lie
Just wandered on down the road
Wandered on down the road
Wandered on down the road
Ahhhhh
Mmmmmmmmm
I can remember
Knowing you better some other time (low song)
I can remember
Being in love with a friend of mine
I've seen it before, now
It's always the same
Nothing can change any part
I know what you're doin'
I think it's a shame
I'm gonna have to make a new start
I can remember some other time
I could believe in, love has a reason for holdin' on (hold on)
I can remember being together and feeling strong
But somehow we lost it, drifted apart
It really took a piece of my heart
I've done it before now
It's always the same
I'm gonna have to make a new start
I can remember some other time
[guitar solo (Pete Ham)]
I've seen it before now
It's always the same
Nothing can change any part
I know what you're doin'
I think it's a shame
I'm gonna have to make a new start
I can remember some other time
Where did you go when you were needed?
Was it someplace I know where they care?
Cries in the rain, I'll learn to get by without you
For the pain in my heart
I'll be the one, we'll be together
I'll be the one, forever and ever
Look at me now, am I the loser?
If you can't tell me how, tell me why
But just the same, I'll learn to get by without you
For the pain in my heart
I'll be the one, we'll be together
I'll be the one, forever and ever and ever
I'll be the one, we'll be together
Run out of money
Run outta good
Run outta reasons and misunderstood
Run out of rhythm
Run out of rhyme
Right out of feelings and right out of time
Living in limbo, hanging around
Head on the ceiling and mind in the clouds
Blind is the morning and deaf is the night
Comes without warning and leaves me in fright
Saving all my money, yeah, for the rainy days
I'm packin' up my suitcase, make it pay
[guitar solo (Joey Molland)]
Run out of patience
And run out of lies
Run out of spaces and nowhere to hide
Living and loving is easy to get
Living is something we haven't tried yet
Yeah, I've been saving all my money, yeah, for the rainy days
Well, I'm packin' up my suitcase, make it pay
Oh, I'm sorry, but it's time to move away
Though inside my heart, I really want to stay
Believe the love we have is so sincere
You know, the gift you have will always be
You're the apple of my eye
You're the apple of my heart
But now, the time has come to part
Oh, I'm sorry, but it's time to make a stand
Though we never meant to bite the lovin' hand
And now, the time has come to walk alone
We were the children, now we've overgrown
You're the apple of my eye
You're the apple of my heart
But now, the time has come to part
Oh, I'm sorry, but it's time to move away
Though inside my heart, I really want to stay
Believe the love we have is so sincere
You know, the gift you have will always be
You're the apple of my eye
You're the apple of my heart
But now, the time has come to part
Now, the time has come to part
Sometimes you make me
Sometimes you break me
I've got leaving on my mind
I wanna get back
I wanna get back
Got no time for hurryin'
Got some time to kill
Promises I've never made
I'll be on my way
CHORUS:
Make you feel like laughin'
Feel like cryin'
Feel like tryin' one more time
One more time
Look into this heart of mine
Tell me what you see
Love is there for you to find
Love is what you need
CHORUS
Sometimes, your feelings can take you by surprise
Still, you try one more time
You try one more time
[guitar solo (Joey Molland)]
CHORUS
Oooooh, oooooh, oooooh, oooooh
Feel like I'm flying, I'm dying to say
Want you forever and easy
Be where you are, where I want you to stay
Don't you know what I'm saying?
Believe me
Feel like I'm falling, it's all I can do
Lying and dying is lonely
Deeper and darker, no way to forgive
No way to believe what you told me
No way to believe what you told me
Way to believe
Kings in their castles wound up in the wine
Drinking their confidence daily
Wish I could be into that peace of mine
Wish I could be into crazy
Wish I could be into crazy
Do you mind if I call you my friend
Just to say that our love will not end?
Do you mind?
Do you worry sometimes?
Do you find that you hurry sometimes?
Do you mind when I don't understand
All the problems that come with your hand?
Do you mind?
Do you worry sometimes?
Do you find that you hurry sometimes?
Or will you be leaving sooner than you thought?
Or will you stay longer?
[guitar solo (Joey Molland)]
Or will you be leaving sooner than you thought?
Or will you stay longer?
Do you mind if I call you my friend
Just to say that our love will not end?
Do you mind?
Do you worry sometimes?
Sing the blues any way I choose
If I wanted
I could bring you down, I could turn you around
If I wanted
It is not my constitution
It's not my way of life
You know I'm just a lover for my wife
I could join a race, I could paint my face
If I wanted
Could be a queen but it's not my scene
Can't hide it
But it's not my constitution
It's not my way of life
You know I'm just a lover for my wife
Could sing the blues any way I choose
If I wanted
Could bring you down, I could turn you around
If I wanted
But it's not my constitution
It's not my way of life
Let me see your face
Let me see you smile
None can measure your love in miles
Only you can comfort me
You're so fine
You can take me up
You can bring me down
Put my feet back on the ground
Since you got a hold on me, I'm alive
I'm alive
Builds around me fences
Put my back against the wall
You broke into my world and made me crawl
Broken my defenses
Made me want you more and more
Came into my life
I asked for more, more and more
[guitar solo (Pete Ham)]
Can't get enough
Enough of your love
I've learned my lesson well
Now it's good enough
Maybe someday the world will come
I'm alive
I'm alive
Builds around me fences
Put my back against the wall
You broke into my world and made me crawl
Broken my defenses
Made me want you more and more
You came into my life
You show me all your loving
Then you turn and tell me no
Open up your arms and let it go
You give me all your kissing
Then you freeze and stop the flow
Open up your knees and let it go
I don't want a Cinderella
I just want my teddy bear
I don't want a backstage Bella
I just want to take you there
Baby, won't you think it over?
Try and see my point of view
Let it go
You show me all your loving
Then you turn and tell me no
Open up your arms and let it go
Let it go, let it go
I don't want a Cinderella
I just want my teddy bear
I don't want a backstage Bella
I just want to take you there
Baby, won't you think it over?
Try and see my point of view
Come on baby, won't you tell me no
Bop bop-a-lop do-wop
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go
So I just walk out in the rain
So that the clouds could hide the pain
And maybe you will never see
The thousand tears you gave to me
And if the rain should go away
Then in my lonely room, I'll stay
So that the world will never know
How much it hurts to see you go away
So I just live a life of hope
Pretending that I couldn't care
But if you find you cannot cope
Just call my name and I'll be there
If I could live my life again
I still relive those precious times
Although I know there would be pain
It felt so good while you were mine
Be mine)
(Be mine
Be mine
(Be mine)
Be mine
So I Just walk out in the rain
(So I Just walk out in the rain)
So that the clouds could hide the pain
(So that the clouds could hide the pain)
And maybe you will never see
(And maybe you will never see)
The thousand tears you gave to me
(Thousand tears you gave)
And if the rain should go away
(And if the rain should go away)
Then in my lonely room I stay
(Then in my lonely room I stay)
So that the world will never know
How much it hurts to see you go
And if you ever change your mind
You know, baby, you will find
All my sorrow and my pain
In a way the sun has shone on me
Makes it easy to make it hard
Take an inch, take a yard, take it all
I don't need it at all
Any day the sun could shine on you
Makes it silly to make it bad
Take it good, take it glad, take it all
Don't you know there's a stronger thing
Keeping us together
Don't you know there's a song to sing
Sing on, let the feeling take you high
Don't you know there's a stronger thing
Keeping us together
Don't you know there's a song to sing
Sing on, let the feeling take you high
Any day the sun will shine on you
Makes it silly to take it bad
Make it good, take it glad, take it all
I don't need it at all, I don't want it at all
Baby I want you by my side to be forever
Without you I can never face the stormy weather
Am I living this paradise for someone to say it's wrong
Am I burning this love too bright when you don't hold on so long
Oh am I living a lie am I too hung up on you
Baby be the bitter end live without you
I get lonely to pass the time and doubt never on you
Am I living this paradise for someone to say it's wrong
Am I burning this love too bright when you don't hold on so long
Oh am I living a lie am I too hung up on you
Am I wasting my time am I loosing my mind yeah
I can't hold on so long I don't wanna be wrong again
Am I living this paradise for someone to say it's wrong
Am I burning this love too bright when you don't hold on so long
Oh am I living a lie am I too hung up on you
Oh am I living a lie am I too hung up on you
We are yesterday, we are today
We are tomorrow, we are timeless
We are then, we are now
We are the future, we are timeless
We are the sorrow, we are the pain
We are the sunshine, we are rain
We are love, we are hate
We are the future, we are timeless
Whatever we see, wherever we go
Shows perfectly clear how little we know
Now how can we look and not even see?
How can we live and not even be free?
We are the comfort, we are the shame
We are forgiveness, we are blame
We are kind, we are kill, are we the future?
What you are is what I see
What I see is what I want it to be
When I say, "I love you"
What I mean is I really do
I'm not the one who'll give you everything you need
But what I mean is that I'll try
I can't deny that I've been burning inside
For all the things I'll never see
So come on, be yourself, nothing else
Who could ask for any more
And you know, they all love you
What is more, I really do
I'm not the one who'll give you everything you need
But what I mean is that I'll try
I can't deny that I've been burning inside
For all the things I'll never see
So come on, they all love you
If you ever wanna cry
If you ever wanna feel blue
I'll be here with some sympathy for you
If you're ever feelin' lonely
If you're ever feelin' down
I'll be here, all you gotta do is come around
If you're lookin' for some sympathy
Baby, you just run to me
If you need a little sympathy
Baby, you just run to me
If you need a little time
And there's no one there to help you through
I'll be here with some sympathy for you
If somebody lets you down to the ground
You can count on me
And if you don't know where to go
So alone, you can run to me
[guitar solo (Joe Tansin)]
REPEAT VERSE 1
If somebody lets you down to the ground
You can run to me
And if you don't know where to go
So alone, you can come to me
If you need a little sympathy (sympathy)
Baby, you just run to me (run to me)
If you need a little sympathy (sympathy)
Baby, you just run to me (run to me)
If you need a little sympathy (sympathy)
Baby, you just run to me (run to me)
If you want a little sympathy (sympathy)
Baby, you just run to me (run to me)
(Sympathy, run to me)
(Sympathy, run to me)
(Sympathy, run to me)
(Sympathy, run to me)
(Sympathy, run to me)
(Sympathy, run to me)
(Sympathy, run to me)
(Sympathy, run to me)
Sweet Tuesday morning came on your smile
All of my fears, they have left me
Sweet Tuesday morning came on your smile
Love is the answer you gave me
I've been to places all around, astound me
Seen the breaking of the souvenir
In a brightness I can feel, surround me
It's the first time I felt it for years
Sweet Tuesday morning came on your smile
Love is the answer you gave me
I've been to places all around, astound me
Seen the breaking of the souvenir
In a brightness I can feel, surround me
Suitcase, suitcase, follow me 'round
Boot lace, boot lace, tie me down
Money for fun, yeah, golden crowns
It's all inside a game we've been playin' so long
Driver, driver, go too fast
Miser, miser, make it last
Pusher, pusher, on the run
It's all inside a game we've been playin' so long
And I'm sorry to be leavin'
That's all I get to say
I'm sorry to be leavin' today, yeah, yeah
And I'm sorry to be leavin'
That's all I get to say
Sorry to be leavin' today, yeah, yeah
Driver, driver, go too fast
Miser, miser, make it last
Pusher, pusher, on the run
It's all inside a game we've been playin' so long
So long
So long
So long
Sometimes I'm only waiting for your smile
Sometimes I'll only wait a while
Sometimes a cloud burst makes me wanna cry
Tell me why?
Sometimes I'm only winning for my time
Sometimes days are always fine
Sometimes a feeling makes me wonder why
Tell me why?
There's always tomorrow, the end of your sorrow and pain
(Pain, sorrow and pain)
Say it again
(Pain, sorrow and pain)
There's always a reason you always believed in my soul
There's always tomorrow, the end of your sorrow and pain
(Pain, sorrow and pain)
Say it again
(Pain, sorrow and pain)
And there's always a reason you always believed in my soul
Sometimes I'm only waiting for your smile
Now you'll make my days a while
Sometimes a cloud burst makes me wanna cry
I gotta find out why, tell me why?
There was a young man
Watched his life unfold each day
He only wanted to play
He only needed a ray
And then he found out
One rainy afternoon, he'd lost
All he'd earned and was tossed
In the rivers he'd crossed
CHORUS:
And there he came across the dreamer
Who told him life was but a dream
And all that you can see is all that you can be
There was a young love destined to get old someday
Didn't happen that way
They never learned how to say
We've got a long, long time between us
We've got a long, long way to go
But I believe if we let it, our love will grow
[guitar solo (Joe Tansin)]
CHORUS
We've got a long, long time between us
We've got a long, long way to go
We've got a long, long time between us
We've got a long, long way to go
We've got a long, long time between us
We've got a long, long, long way to go
Long way to go
(Long, long time between us)
And I believe if we let it, our love will grow
Our love will grow
You're filling my head with your notions
You take what you want
mess up the man in me
Making a fuss about no one
There's devils in your head
Such an old fashioned notion, baby
Now you're putting me on once again
I see you looking for another one
To play a pawn in your game
You're gonna be the death of me
Go play in someone else's tree
You're gonna end up in a dream
You're gonna be a star
People will try to bring you down
Don't let them see you when you frown
People will come, people will go
In my time, be mine. Pray in time
Bend my space, distort my time
Forsake those who stay behind
Revelations in my time
Kill the prophet, drink your wine
Tear a page out of your memory
You can buy a replacement part of me
And what fate will we find?
It's hard for me to be in any other dream
Maybe I'm a fool compared with you
What can I do
Drunken days drunken nights
Someone please turn out the light
I can't face the mirror anymore
Move along magics gone, someone else can sing my song,
I can't lift my head up of the floor
N-n-n-n-n- no no no no more
N-n-n-n-n- no no no no more
N-n-n-n-n- no no no no no no no no more
Empty days sleepless nights
Have I lost the will to fight
Someone help me back onto the road
Sinking fast time has past I can't make the story last
Every little note is coming hard
N-n-n-n-n- no no no no more
N-n-n-n-n- no no no no more
N-n-n-n-n- no no no no no no no no more
There's no use in trying
When you only end up crying
It's a fools game
It's no longer funny when youre doing it for money
It's a shame shame
no no no more no more
No more
N-n-n-n-n- no no no no more
N-n-n-n-n- no no no no more
I wanna to tell you,
How much I need you now.
I wanna show you,
What Love can do.
Can you take me like I am?
(Chorus) Lovin' You Now can be sad,
I can remember times we have had.
And for you now my heart goes out once again.
You turn me down I wonder why,
You turn away with sunken eyes.
I see nothing but the best,
I Imagine all the rest comming true
I wanna touch you,
I wanna be with you now.
I wanna show you,
What love can do.
I can take it like a man
(Chorus)
Baby shine a light on me tell what you're gonna be everythings alright
You're in my thoughts tonight
Passing by moonshine moonshine
One and one is three is that the way it's gotta be the world is yours is mine
To live in cool delight
Passing by moonshine moonshine
Looking at tomorrow with hope inside your heart hoping we could try to make it better
Knowing you're beside me though we're far apart living in the love that in between us now
Babe become a part of me break my heart and set me free yours is lonely skies
Youre in my thoughts tonight
Don't ask me why moonshine moonshine
Looking at tomorrow.....
But you hear me brighter dawn happiness of blue
See me through the darkest reasons love is all of love is all of love is all of you
You rise and sing the glory of the future that is passed make it last
Lost inside the reason of a love I hope will last we can fast
Come on, your highest hope the hopes, the dreams will last
Nothing is impossible you know what you must do
The flame the hopes will see you through
Time will not let you wait this time it's tearing you apart let it start
Nothing can deny it all the love that's in your heart in my heart
Come on, your highest hope the hopes, the dreams will last
The future promises will pass
Nothing is impossible you know what you must do
Listen to a lonely sound
See the gray and sadness all around
See the people go their way
Care not of me and love I've lost today
Maybe tomorrow I will love again
I'll never know until I've looked into her eyes
Maybe tomorrow I will love again
I'll never know until I've seen her once or twice
And so I'm living for a dream
Each lonely day spent looking for the sunshine
I'll make believe that I don't care
I'll tell my friends I love my life, I'm happy
Maybe tomorrow I will love again
I'll never know until I've looked into her eyes
Maybe tomorrow I will love again
I'll never know until I've seen her once or twice
Wherever, whoever you may be
Let the light of your love
Shine through the window of my heart
Then when you've colored all my thoughts bright
Don't let me ever, ever think of night, no
Maybe tomorrow you will love again
I'll never know until I've looked into her eyes
Maybe tomorrow you will love again
I'll never know until I've seen her once or twice
Maybe tomorrow you will love again
Honey, don't you know I love you?
'Cause I give you all I can, I do
Everything I've tried to help you
Love me too
Give a little of what you take from me, honey
That's all you have to do
Won't you come on over here and love me?
Love me do
Love, love, love me
Love me do
Love, love, love me
Love me do, yeah
Honey, don't you think I need ya?
Indeed I do
Won't you come on over here and love me
Love me too
Give a little of what you take from me, honey
That's all you have to do
Won't you come on over here and love me?
Love me do
Love, love, love me
Love me do, oh yeah
Love, love, love me
Love me do, oh yeah
Honey, don't you think I love ya?
'Cause I give you all I can, I do
I tried everything I could to help you
Love me too
Ooh, now, love, love, love me
Love me do
Well, love, love, love me
Love me do
Love, love, love me
Love me do
Love, love, love me
Love me do, oh yes
Come on, love, love, love me
Love me do, won't you, lover?
Well, love, love, love me
Love me do
Guess I got what I deserve
Kept you waiting there, too long my love
All that time, without a word
Didn't know you'd think, that I'd forget, or I'd regret
The special love I have for you
My baby blue
All the days became so long
Did you really think I'd do you wrong
Dixie, when I let you go
Thought you'd realize, I would know, I would show
The special love I have for you
My baby blue
What can I do, what can I say?
Except that I want you by my side
How can I show you? Show me a way
Don't you know, the times I tried
Guess that's all I have to say
Except the feeling just gets stronger everyday
Just one thing, before I go
Take good care, baby let me know, let it show
The special love you have for me
There are times when it feels so hard just to carry on
There are times when the days all seem to be so long
Then this feeling inside of me sets me free from the past
And I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last
Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last
Been alone in a crowded room, watched it all go on
I've had so many sleepless nights when I dreamed alone
Then a break in the clouds above feels like love shinin' down
And I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come around
Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come around
I live for tomorrow, what it may bring
I live through the sorrow
Live in my dreams, in my dreams
[guitar solo (Joey Molland)]
This feeling inside of me sets me free from the past
And someday I'll find a way to make my dreams come true
'Cause I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last
Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last
Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last
Yes, I know that when I'm ready, love is gonna come at last
I've got what I need, I know you're there
Call my name, I'll be there
I want you to know, it's on my mind
I'm afraid of the pain that you hide
Anytime fear surrounds you, let it pass away
Hold it down, turn around
Love will come your way
I want you to be, it's all I need
Loving you, loving me
I've got what I need, I know you're there0
Call my name, I'll be there
Anytime fear surrounds you, let it pass away
Hold it down, turn around
Every day I look into your eyes
I see a love that's there
See myself and stare
Loving you so many different ways
A kind of harmony
Another part of me
Makes it harder now
If it's easy to believe it
It's hard to realize
As easy to believe it
As the love that's in your eyes
Well, if it's easy to believe it
It's hard to realize
As easy to believe it
As the love that's in your eyes
Found amongst the laughter and the tears
Love I had inside
Love I used to hide
Makes it harder now
Oh, I won't let you down. I'll be back
To give all my love to you, Baby, hold on
No you won't fade away. In my mind
You'll be with me every day. Baby, be strong
And just hold on if you're feeling strong
And you'll never find a day.I'm not with you every way
Don't you ever hide away. Our love hold on
But if you let me down.I'll be strong
And give all my love to you. Baby, hold on
'Cause you wont fade away.In my mind
You'll be with me every day.Baby, be strong
And just hold on.If you're feeling strong
And you'll never find a day. I'm not with you every way
Don't you ever hide away.Our love hold on. Baby hold on
But if you ever doubt it. I'll make you so sure about it
'Cause all I ever wanted to do. Is give my lovin' to you
And just hold on. If you're feeling strong
And you'll never find a day.I'm not with you every way
We live in hope of love and wait to die
And sadness all around us makes for crying
The feelings that once meant so much
Left to dry and turn to dust and ashes
We learn to wheel and deal and say goodbye
Madness all around us makes for dyin'
And young deceivers soon turn old
Are left to die amongst their gold and cashes
Give it up, or we'll end on the rocks give it up
(Give it up )
(Give it up)
Give it up give yourself time
(Give it up )
Give it up your saviour's in shock give it up
(Give it up )
(Give it up)
Give it up give yourself time
(Give it up )
We drive a million miles to see the sun
And hoping we are not too late for saving
The Lord will smile on you today
And give you love that you can trade
For matches and TVs and movie stars
And driving cars is catching
Give it up, or we'll end on the rocks give it up
(Give it up )
(Give it up)
Give it up give yourself time
(Give it up )
Give it up your saviour's in shock give it up
(Give it up )
(Give it up)
Give it up give yourself time
Well I had to laugh
I saw a photograph of someone that I knew
It 's just a friend of mine
But it's so hard to find
I don't know what to do
I gotta call her on the telephone
Yes, I gotta call her
She's never at home
I don't know what to do if I do get through
I won't know what to say
Say a "how-do-you-do?"
You've got an hour or two
I'm trying to make my money pay
I gotta call her on the telephone
Yes, I gotta call her
She's never at home
Never mind the trouble
No trouble at all
All I ask of you, woman
Is to answer me when I call
Well I had to laugh
I saw a photograph of someone that I knew
It's just a friend of mine
But it's so hard to find
I don't know what to do
I gotta call her on the telephone
Yes, I gotta call her
She's never at home
Friend, hard to find a friend
Friend, hard to find a friend
Friend, hard to find a friend
Friend, hard to find a friend
I can't believe in some of the stories
Some of the stories they say about you
I can't believe in some of the rumours
Quick growing tumours, they're making me blue
Mother confessor leave me alone
Father depressor you're overgrown
You're on your own, what you're saying now
I can't believe in some of the stories
Some of the stories they say about you
I can't believe in some of the rumours
Quick growing tumours, they're making me blue
Mother confessor leave me alone
Father depressor you're overgrown
I can love you without askin' why
Seeing all that's in your eyes
Knowing there's no alibi
If I made you cry
I can see you like a morning sun
Feel you and I'm holding on
Knowing that I'm not alone
Want to take you home
And all of the flowers
Seem to wither in their beds and say goodnight
And all of the hours
Seem to clean away the bad and make it right
And all of the flowers
Seem to wither in their beds and say goodnight
And all of the hours
Seem to clean away the bad and make it right
And all of the flowers
Seem to wither in their beds and say goodnight
And all of the hours
Many times you've never known the way it feels
Many times you never let it show
All the people all around never telling nobody
All the people all around never telling a soul
So, come on, let me hold you tight
So, come on, be with you all night
So come on, let me hold you, hold you
Come on
Many times we've been so out of tune with it
Many times we've never known the way
All the people all around never telling nobody
All the people all around never telling a soul
So, come on, let me hold you tight
So, come on, be with you all night
So come on, let me hold you, hold you
Come on
Show me your magic and our love will be around
Now that it's just we two, don't you let me die
Many times we've been so out of tune with it
Many times we've never let it show
All the people all around never telling nobody
All the people all around never telling a soul
So, come on, let me hold you tight
So, come on, be with you all night, so come on
Let me hold you, hold you, come on
Let me hold you tight, so, come on
Be with you all night, so come on
Let me hold you, hold you, come on
Let me hold you, hold you, come on
I heard a lover lie, saw a lady cry her heart out
He was on his way, she would have to play the part out
And though he told her what she did was right
He only loved her when the moon was bright
And he was leavin'
She didn't understand, it didn't go the way she planned it
She thought the ties were strong
Then it all went wrong, she landed
She come down hard
[guitar solo (Joe Tansin)]
She was noticing just lately
She had seen a thing or two
Things would get a little shaky
And there was nothin' she could do
She go, "boo hoo hoo"
She looked around the place and there was no one there to save her, oh no
And now her eyes would burn
He would not return, she knew it
And though he told her what she did was right
He only loved her when the moon was bright
And he was leavin'
She come down hard
Leavin'
Leavin' (come down hard)
Leavin' (come down hard)
Dear Angie, just these lines
To confirm something you may know
Dear Angie, please excuse the writing
It's my nerves, you know
When you caught your train today
You took my heart and soul away
I can't wait 'til Friday night
To see you, touch you, hold you tight
Dear Angie, how's your folks and relatives?
I hope they're well
Dear Angie, I'm spending my vacation
At that same hotel
I've known you now for one whole year
There's something I've not told you, dear
Turned a blind eye for too long
This letter proves that I've been wrong
Ba ba da, ooh
Ba ba da, ooh
I've known you now for one whole year
There's something I've not told you, dear
Turned a blind eye for too long
This letter proves that I've been wrong
Dear Angie, I've beat about the bush
It's time I spoke my mind
Dear Angie, it's been a long time coming
Guess I've been unkind
Dear Angie, the writing's on the wall
Dear Angie, I love you, you're my all
You're the only one I need (Crocadillo)
See the only woman to please, Crocadillo
She's looking so fine
She's losing some mind, have you got it?
Crocadillo (Crocadillo)
She can make a man out of me (Crocadillo)
She's the only woman I see, Crocadillo
She's losing some find
She's losing some mind, have you got it?
Crocadillo (Crocadillo)
She's got it anyway around, anyway around with me
Get everything about her
Seen it on TV, Crocadillo
She's got it anyway around, anyway around with me (anyway around...)
Get everything about her (...anyway around...)
Seen it on TV (...anyway around with me)
She's looking so fine
She's losing, she's mine
You're losing your mind
Nothing is mine
You got it, you got it
Crocadillo!
Crocadillo

I put away the knife, the chisel and the saw
I've locked away my life behind this old oak door
To make a simple spoon, a token of my love
In hope that maybe soon, it's me you're thinking of
So take my spoon, Blodwyn
Make it soon, Blodwyn
The valley knows the way I feel today
So take my spoon, Blodwyn
Make it soon, Blodwyn
Before some other spoon takes you away
My life may not be long, was working down below
For so much can go wrong, but what else do I know?
So take these precious years and make them precious too
And say you'll take from me what I will give to you
Take my spoon, Blodwyn
Make it soon, Blodwyn
The valley knows the way I feel today
Take my spoon, Blodwyn
Make it soon, Blodwyn
Before some other spoon takes you away
Take my spoon, Blodwyn
Make it soon, Blodwyn
Valley knows the way I feel today
Take my spoon, Blodwyn
Make it soon, Blodwyn

I hear the thunder, I know the rain is falling far. And the river is rising.
Watch these dark clouds come peeking off slow, "above the horizon"
Won't somebody rescue me, from the thunder and the lightning
Baby can you feel it, better believe it. Can you feel the rain fall down
Baby can you feel it ( Baby can you feel it )
Better believe it. Can you feel it the rain fall down
I'm off the tracks like a runaway train. Someone led me off of this line
And I heard Saint Peter calling my name. I got nowhere to hide
"Blinded and numb" and I don't know, how to put out a fire. Yeah
Won't somebody rescue me, from the thunder and the lightning
Baby can you feel it, better believe it. Can you feel the rain fall down
Baby can you feel it ( Baby can you feel it )
Better believe it. Can you feel it the rain fall down
Won't somebody rescue me, from the thunder and the lightning
Baby can you feel it, better believe it. Can you feel the rain fall down
Baby can you feel it ( Baby can you feel it )
Better believe it. Can you feel it the rain fall down
Won't somebody rescue me, from the thunder and the lightning
Baby can you feel it, better believe it. Can you feel the rain fall down
Baby can you feel it ( Baby can you feel it )
Well, I can't forget this evening
And your face when you were leaving
But I guess that's just the way the story goes
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows
Yes, it shows
Well, I can't forget tomorrow
When I think of all my sorrow
I had you there but then I let you go
And now it's only fair that I should let you know
What you should know
I can't live, if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
I can't live, if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
Well, I can't forget this evening
And your face when you were leaving
But I guess that's just the way the story goes
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows
Yes, it shows
I can't live, if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
I can't live, if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
I can't live, if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
I can't live, if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
I can't live, if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
I can't live, if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
Tell me the day and I'll set you free
What you wanna be
Show me the way and I'll let you see
What you do to me
Well, it's not enough to live
If you're gonna take, then you have to give
We're for the dark
Baby, you and I
Show me the clouds and I'll give you sky
If you want me to
Show me the crowds and I'll make you sigh
If you take me through
Well, it's not enough to be
If you're gonna look then you have to see
We're for the dark
Baby, you and I, baby, you and I
Baby, you and I, baby, you and I
Show me the way and I'll set you free
What you oughta be
Tell me the day and I'll let you see
What you do to me
Well, it's not enough to live
If you're gonna take then you have to give
We're for the dark
Baby, you and I
Show me the clouds and I'll give you sky
If you want me to
Show me the crowds and I'll make you sigh
If you take me through
Well, it's not enough to be
If you gotta look then you have to see
We're for the dark
Baby, you and I, baby, you and I
It's a terrible thing to lose
All the time you've had and never used
Sometimes you wanna hide
And sometimes you wanna light the fuse
And you know just where you stand
But it's hard to make the plan
When all that you do is wrong
And no one to find a song to play
[Chorus:]
Three time loser
White line user
Mr. Groover
Where's it end?
And there's nothing that you can say
You can make it most any day
And if you try very hard
You know you might find a yard or two
[Chorus]
[keyboard solo (Tony Kaye)]
Sometimes you wanna hide
Sometimes you wanna light the fuse
Three time loser
White line user
Three time loser
White line user (ultimate user)
Three time loser (big street cruiser)
White line user (go little Hoover)
Three time loser (Mr. Humor)
White line user (ooh, city slicker)
Three time loser (cherry picker)
White line user (Mr. "gives a damn")
Three time loser (you're a married man)
White line user (money money money money money money money broker)
Once upon a ruthless time
Lived a man folks thought was kind
People called him laughing Will
But inside he loved to kill
Ruled a city with his mob
A connoisseur on the way to rob
And some refused him, they're dead or lame
And old Will always dodged the blame
Johnny could not help be near
But he saw Will's face quite clear
Old Will Parker saw him run
Followed with his smoking gun
He was just a fairground boy
A-helping him on the wheel of joy
He pulled no punches, he played the game
Should I smoke or should I die?
Somebody must tell me why
Should I laugh, should I cry
Won't somebody help me?
Don't know what to say
You're makin' me better
I've learned how to pray
Change in the weather today
Don't know what to do
Just makes it hard to lose
The day passes by
Nobody listens
And nobody cries
For anyone's mission today
Don't know what to do
Just makes it hard to choose
Should I smoke or should I die?
Somebody must tell me why
Should I laugh, should I cry
Well she's a brown-eyed lady and I couldn't give her an answer
She took all I give her and all she ever wanted is more
And I'd have to admit that I'm not just a born romancer
Who'll taking it easy, feel like I did before
CHORUS:
Mean, mean Jemima
Won't you come back, won't you come back home?
Mean, mean Jemima
Won't you come back, won't you come back home?
I'm sitting here thinking of nothing but matches and candles
She took all I give her and all she ever wanted is more
And I'd have to admit she was too much for me to handle
Who'll taking it easy, I'm feeling like I did before
CHORUS
She's a brown-eyed lady and I couldn't give her an answer
She took all I give her and all she ever wanted is more
[guitar solo (Pete Ham)]
CHORUS
Won't you come back home? (come back)
Won't you come back? (won't you come back?)
Won't you come back home? (won't you come back?)
Won't you come back? (come back)
Won't you come back home? (come back)
Won't you come on back? (come back)
Won't you come back home? (Won't you come back?)
Won't you come back? (Won't you come back?)
Why do you think me so hard to get?
Is there something they might regret?
Is it better to just forget, just forget?
If they only would let us know
Then we'd know just how far to go
But instead they just tell us "no", tell us "no"
You, you always played the fool (you always played the fool)
You always break the rule
At every single school you know (you always break the rule)
It always pulled you down
They could always pull you down
You, you never stayed the same (you never stayed the same)
And now you take the blame
For all the little games they play (you always take the blame)
And let it bring you down
Why'd you let it bring you down?
[guitar solo (Pete Ham)]
Why do you think me so hard to get?
Is there something they might regret?
Is it better to just forget, just forget?
If they only would let us know
Then we'd know just how far to go
But instead they just tell us "no", tell us "no"
You, you never stayed the same (you never stayed the same)
And now you take the blame
For all the little games they play (you always take the blame)
And let it bring you down
Need your loving
Need your loving
Need your loving
It's everything to me X 2
Take me high take me low
Show me anything that you know
But tonight little lover lay me down
Make me laugh make me cry tell me how and tell me why
But tonight lover little lay me down
Lay me down move me round
Let me hear your loving sound
In our mess we are blessed with our love
Take and give take and live all the love that we have found
And just send all our problems away
Play me fun play me sad
Tell me things that could make you glad
But tonight lover little Lay me down
Lay me down
Need you loving....
Play to share play to care
You can play with me anywhere
But tonight lover little lay me down
But tonight lover little lover lay me down
Lay me down
When I look into your tearful eyes
I don't know what to do
And though you say that I don't realize
I sympathize with you
Lonely you, only you
Yes I do
Lonely you, only you
Lonely you
When I ask you just to be my friend
I want to lend a hand
But if we get too close, it's sure to end
Oh, can't you understand?
Lonely you, only you
Yes it will
Lonely you, only you
Lonely you
We really need a friend
And friends are hard to find
And harder still to keep
Lonely you, lonely me
Lonely you, only you
Yes it will
Lonely you, only you
Keep your country tidy keep rubbish off the floor
Poor old Mother Nature can't take it anymore
Leave things as you find them. It's not hard to do
If your country's tidy so are you
Keep your lover happy keep evil from your door
And when you think you're given then give her even more
Don't forget the small things they're not hard to do
Keep your lover happy just for you
Take me away to the beautiful day I remember
Pull me down, move me round, pull me down
Wish I could stay from beginning of May 'til September
Pull me down, move me round, pull me down
Keep your lover happy keep evil from your door
And when you think you're given then give her even more
Don't forget the small things they're not hard to do
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do
I couldn't wish you any bad I only miss the many highs we've had
Our problems made it hard to smile
But I still loved you all the while
I can't deny that times have changed
I only wish we could have rearranged it
We were the pawns in someone else's game
Keep believing you can make it now
Keep believing you can work it out
Keep believing you can make it now
I know the pace was rather slow
But I was not the one to run the show
Our problems made it hard to talk
Slowing run down to a walk
I would have liked for things to last
But now I know that time has put it past
We were the pawns and we became the thing
[Chorus:]
If you wanna blame somebody you can blame it all on me
Just believe and you will see
Just believe and you will see
I can't deny that times have changed
I only wish we could have rearranged it
We were the pawns in someone else's game
[Chorus]
Pack the bag, I'm goin' away
It's over, goin' home
Thank your people, but it's too much to stay
It's done now, I'm goin' home
Now I feel like I'm one
Now I feel like I'm due
Spent my time in some fun
And for that, I thank you
It's over, it's over
It's over, I'm goin' home
It's over, it's over
And for that I thank you
Now I feel like I'm one
Now I feel like I'm due
Spent my time in some fun
And for that, I thank you
It's over, it's over
It's over, I'm goin' home
It's over, it's over
Had to be, don't look back, you're older
Take it from me
Love you have is stronger
And in your eyes I see myself
I want from you what you want of me
And you know
The love you have is stronger
It had to be, don't look back, you're older
Ahh, ahh
And in your eyes I see myself
I want from you what you want of me
When I love you, do you feel it?
I know it makes you happy when I say "alright"
When I love you, do you feel it?
When I hold you, we're an island
You know it makes me happy when you say "alright"
When I hold you, we're an island
I know the road's a hard one
But it's easy when you're not alone
So help me to remember, please
Lady, I believe we'll get home
When I love you, do you feel it?
You know it makes me happy when you say "alright"
When I love you, do you feel it?
[guitar solo (Joey Molland)]
I know the road's a hard one
But it's easy when you're not alone
So help me to remember, please
Lady, I believe we'll get home
When I love you, do you feel it?
You know it makes me happy when you say "alright"
When I love you, we're an island
I know the road's a hard road
But it's easy when you're not alone
Help me to remember
Lady, I believe we'll make it home, get home
You give me loving like crazy
You make my daisies grow high
You treat me good so I'm lazy
You make me feel so alive
You get me feeling I'm okay
And I got nothing to hide
And if you leave me awhile babe
You know I'd die, babe, babe, I'd die
I tell you I love you
I'll tell you no lies
I tell you I need you
And I want you by my side
Used to be cold and lonely
You came along with your smile
And if you leave now I'll cry babe
You know I'd die babe, babe, I'd die
I tell you I love you
I'll tell you no lies
I tell you I need you
And I want you by my side
Used to be cold and lonely
You came along with your smile
And if you leave now I'll cry babe
Birds sing and doorbells ring in answer
People say it's a lovely day outside
I don't mind, I've got my way of living
Even if it's only for the ride
I don't mind if people find me lazy
I could say it's only for the fun
Step inside, let's see if I can make you
After all it's only just begun
You don't know me
What's on my mind
And you can't show me
What I can't find
Days, nights, alright, it's easy
Spending time and making rhymes for you
I don't mind, I've got my way of giving
Even if it's all I ever do
Step inside, let's see if I can make you
Even if it's only for the ride
You don't know me
What's on my mind
And you can't show me
Ah ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ahhh

I'm just a good boy, working hard to get my pay
A little time, a little trouble, a better day
I see no reason as for why it cannot be
A little time, a little trouble, a better day
You bury your head in the things you said, that's fine
But the days go by and you know it's getting dark at nine
You give all you want, but you take away what's mine
We can make it better
Baby, so much better all the time
Just a good boy
Looking hard to see my way
A little time, a little trouble, a better day
I see no reason as for why it cannot be
A little time, a little trouble, a better day
Well, you bury your head in the things you said, that's fine
But the days go by and you know it's getting dark at nine
You give all you want but you take away what's mine
We can make it better

There is no real perfection
There'll be no perfect day
Just love is our connection
The truth in what we say
There's no good revolution
Just power changing hands
There is no straight solution
Except to understand
So listen to my song of life
You don't need a gun or a knife
Successful conversation will take you very far
There is no real perfection
There'll be no perfect man
Just peace is our connection
For giving all you can
There's no good kind of killing
Just power taking life
It's all good blood that's spilling
To make a bigger knife
So listen to my song of life
You don't need a gun or a knife
Successful conversation can take you very far
So listen to my song of life
You don't need a gun or a knife
Successful conversation can take you very far
Successful conversation will take you very far
I couldn't believe it, the look in your eyes
You said you were leaving and this was the night
You told me your reasons, something inside
And knew in your heart, girl, love was alive
You were just passing time
Taking love in the easy way
Wasted mind, giving nothing away
I tried to relate it, to something I said
Maybe I should have waited, gone ahead
Then it was hard to bear
Taking love in the easy way
Hard to care, giving nothing away
Giving nothing away
You were like a movie star
Seen too much, gone too far
You were sellin', I was sold
So the story goes
[guitar solo (Joey Molland)]
You were like a movie star
Seen too much, gone too far
You were sellin', I was sold
As the story goes
Passing time
Taking love in the easy way
Wasted mind, giving nothing away
Giving nothing away
Giving nothing away
Oh no, I couldn't believe it
Oh no, I couldn't believe it
Oh no, I couldn't believe it
Oh no, I couldn't believe it
Oh no, I couldn't believe it
Oh no, I couldn't believe it
No matter what you are
I will always be with you
Doesn't matter what you do, girl
Ooh girl, with you
No matter what you do
I will always be around
Won't you tell me what you found, girl?
Ooh girl, won't you?
Knock down the old gray wall
And be a part of it all
Nothing to say, nothing to see, nothing to do
If you would give me all
As I would give it to you
Nothing would be, nothing would be, nothing would be
No matter where you go
There will always be a place
Can't you see it in my face, girl?
Ooh girl, want you
Knock down the old gray wall
Be a part of it all
Nothing to say, nothing to see, nothing to do
If you would give me all
As I would give it to you
Nothing would be, nothing would be, nothing would be
No matter what you are
I will always be with you
Doesn't matter what you do, girl
Ooh girl, with you
Ooh girl, you girl
Want you
Ooh girl, you girl
Saw the railway master
And I looked him in the eye
Said "Would you go much faster
If you thought that you would die?
He said "Not me sir I could not care
In fact I would not try
Protest would not take me far
It's different me not being a star"
I lock my feelings in a jar until another day
Comfort me dear brother
Won't you tell me what you know?
Somewhere in this painful world
Is a place where I can go
Oh long awaiting mother
Is it time to make yout the show?
And take your babies to your breast
No we never passed the test
And all our sins should be confessed before we carry on
Oh don't refuse me
If you choose me you'll follow my shame
No don't confuse me
For I know it's the name of the game
Got up off my pillow
And I looked up at the sun
Said "You can see quite clearly now
The things that we have done"
We burned your sacred willow
And our battles we have won
But did we get so very far?
It's different me not being a star
Lock my feelings in a jar until we go away
Oh don't refuse me
If you choose me you'll follow my shame
No don't confuse me
For I know it's the name of the game
Oh don't refuse me
If you choose me you'll follow my shame
No don't confuse me
For I know that's the name of the game
Don't refuse me
Don't confuse me
Ohh ohh ohh
Don't refuse me
Don't confuse me
Money stole my lady
Fools have a way of making me lazy
Money buy you freedom
Rules have a way of making me crazy
So we grow a little older
With another tale to tell
So we grow a little colder
With another tale to tell
Money make you feel unhappy
Fools have a way of making me crazy
So we grow a little older
With another tale to tell
So we grow a little colder
Beneath the midnight caller
She thinks of paper green
You never hear them calling her name
They just know where they've been
You never hear her holler
The tears no longer come
She reads her daily book of the past
That shows of everyone
Gray years that show in her hair
Can't be, but don't seem to care
She unlocks the door
And there's no one there
She sees a daytime stroller
Walk from the night before
And though she paints a smile on her face
He won't be back no more
She's got no saint to follow
She's got no place to go
Too proud to ask an old friend for help
Too proud to let him know
Gray years that show in her hair
Can't be, but don't seem to care
She knocks the door
And there's no one there
Nobody
(Nobody)
Nobody
(Nobody)
Just give me five so I can step outside
Or even give me three and I'll be satisfied
But if you give me none at all
You're gonna see me climb that wall
And you know you're gonna see me fall
And I can't take it
Take all the nights that a man can give
And make all the days so a man can live
But if you take up every hour
You're gonna take up all my power
And you know you're gonna turn me sour
And I can't take it, no
I can't take it
I can't take it anymore
I can't take it
Place a lock upon my door
Give me all your money in your dark brown vase
You've even got my soul in your dark brown case
But baby can't you see outside?
You know you've got my fingers tied
And you know you're gonna hurt my pride
And I can't take it
I can't take it
I can't take it anymore
I can't take it
Place a lock upon my door
Give me all your money in your dark brown vase
You've even got my soul in your dark brown case
But baby can't you see outside?
When you know you've got my fingers tied
And you know you're gonna hurt my pride
And I can't take it
I can't take it, oh no
I can't take it anymore
I can't take it
Place a lock upon my door
I can't take it, oh no
I can't take it anymore
I can't take it
Place a lock upon my door
I can't take it
I can't take it anymore
I can't take it
Place a lock upon my door
I can't take it
I can't take it anymore
I can't take it
Waiting for the phone to tell me you and I are through
And I'm not alone, I guess that everybody wants it, too
You got no feeling, you've been dealing all the wrongs
Your lies are stealing Lord, I think you should be gone
Hey, Mr. Manager You're messing up my life
Hey, Mr. Manager Don't think I need that kind of strife
It's the same old story, we all know it to the end
But without your boring glory, we could live again
You got no feeling, you've been dealing all the wrongs
Your lies are stealing God, I think you should be gone
Hey, Mr. Manager You're messing up my life
Hey, Mr. Manager Don't think I need that kind of strife
Laying down these lines This song's especially for you
It may be simple But in some ways, so are you!
Hey, Mr. Manager You're messing up my life
Hey, Mr. Manager Don't think I need that kind of, that kind of, that kind of strife
Waiting for the phone to tell me
Deeper waters flowed, recently it showed
Tryin' to cover your head
Tryin' to frighten you, tryin' to fight with you
Really gettin' you scared
But don't you worry, you love of mine
Pretty soon it will all be fine and we'll just go on
Higher hills to climb, climbin' all the time
Tryin' to find a way through
Fallin' down again, on the ground again
Wonderin' what you can do
But don't you worry, you love of ours
They look like weeds, but they're really flowers
And they'll soon be gone
You won't stand up, you won't sit down
Your head's a mile above the ground
And though we tend to scold you now
I couldn't start to tell you how, we couldn't start to tell you how
There's just no way to say how much we love you
You, little Dennis, you, you're full of new surprise
Love you, you little Dennis with the rascal in your eyes, you're a prize
It could be bad, it could be worse, you're taking out your mother's purse
And though you cried when you got told
The money there was for the old to keep their dogs from getting cold
The only thing that can't be sold is love
You, little Dennis, you, you're full of new surprise
Love you you, little Dennis with the rascal in your eyes
Will you pick up your toys?
Will you be a good boy?
Will you please, please?
There's a way, there's a way, if you'll play, if you'll stay
There's a way through, there's a way to, take away blue, take away blue
There's a way, there's a way, if you'll play, if you'll stay
There's a way through, there's a way to, take away blue, take away blue
There's a way, there's a way, if you'll play, if you'll stay
If you want it, here it is
Come and get it
MMM Make your mind up fast.
If you want it, anytime
I can get it
But you better hurry cause it may not last.
Did I hear you say
That there must be a catch?
Will you walk away
From a fool and his money?
If you want it, here it is
Come and get it
But you better hurry 'cause it's goinn' fast.
If you want it, here it is
Come and get it
MMM Make your mind up fast.
If you want it, anytime
I can get it
But you better hurry 'cause it may not last.
Did I hear you say
That there must be a catch?
Will you walk away
From a fool and his money?
Sonny...
If you want it, here it is
Come and get it
But you'd better hurry 'cause it may not last
You'd better hurry 'cause it may not last.
OOOO..fool and his money
Sonny..
If you want it, here it is
Come and get it
But you'd better hurry 'cause it's goin' fast
You'd better hurry 'cause it's goin' fast
In younger days, I told myself my life would be my own
And I'd leave the place where sunshine never shone
For my life's too short for waiting when I see the rising sun
Then I know again that I must carry on
Carry on till tomorrow, there's no reason to look back
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Beyond the shadows of the clouds and onward to the sky
Carry on till I find the rainbow's end
For my life's too short for waiting when I see the rising sun
Then I know again that I must carry on
Carry on till tomorrow, there's no reason to look back
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Drifting on the wings of freedom, leave this stormy day
And we'll ride to tomorrow's golden fields
For my life's too short for waiting when I see the rising sun
Then I know again that I must carry on
Carry on, carry on, carry on
And when the heavy journey's done, I'll rest my weary head
For the world and it's colors will be mine
For my life's too short for waiting when I see the setting sun
Then I know again that I must carry on
Carry on till tomorrow, there's no reason to look back
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Know you can Know you can
Know you can Know you can
Wrapped up in a Rock 'N' Roll Contract
Lots of things I had to sign at the time
Man told me not to worry 'bout the business
Just keep on poppin' those hits
Know you can Know you can
Know you can Know you can
Sat down in my pyramid mansion
Old Martin seems to know all the chords
Tired of beggin', I can make it without them
Played the blues so I wouldnt get bored
You made me your slave. Whatever God gave me
You took to the grave, now its gone
I gave you my heart. Whatever God gave me
You took to the grave, now its gone
Yeah, its gone
Gone
Smokin', chokin', drinkin', sinkin', falling over
Cokin', flyin', speedin', dyin', roll me over
Roll me over (wrapped up in a Rock 'N' Roll Contract)
Roll me over (wrapped up in a Rock 'N' Roll Contract)
Know you can Know you can
It's late. I know it's time we were letting go
But I can't bring myself to say goodbye
It's been so long. There's no use in holding on
But I can't bring myself to say goodbye
I know so well what I have to do
But my heart gets in the way
I'm standing here. I'm just a fool in love
What can I do or say
I know. I see, but now that you're here with me
I can't bring myself to say goodbye
But I can't bring myself to say goodbye
I know so well what I have to do
But my heart gets in the way
I'm standing here. I'm just a fool in love
What can I do or say
I can't bring myself to say goodbye
ive it a try and we can make it so high
You'll never feel this way again
Wipe out your sorrow and pain
Come into my heart.
Just give it the time
Should work out fine
We can make it
We can break it.
It's not a command
Just give me a hand
We can take it
Whoa we can take it, take it.
Give it a try and obtain your desire
You never make love on your own
That's what the love seed has sown
Don't put out the fire.
Baby the time
We work out fine
We can make it
We can break it.
It's not a command
Baby give me your hand
We can break it
We can take it.
Give it a try and we can make it so high
You'll never feel this way again
Wipe out your sorrow and pain
Come into my heart.
Give it a try and obtain your desire
You never make love on your own
That's what the love seed has sown
Well, you just slammed the door in my face
Well, that ain't any disgrace
It's a natural thing to do
Because true love never runs smooth
Well It's just a storm in a teacup, baby
We'll never break up, baby
Storm in a teacup, baby
You will leave for a day
Then come back here anyway
You'll come knocking on my door
And then tell me, "Shut that door!"
Yeah Yeah It's just a storm in a teacup, baby
We'll never break up, baby
Storm in a teacup, baby
It's just a storm in a teacup, baby
We'll never break up, baby
Storm in a teacup, baby
You will leave for a day
Then come back here anyway
You'll come knocking on my door
And then tell me, "Shut that door!"
It's just a storm in a teacup, baby
We'll never break up, baby
Storm in a teacup, baby
We'll never break up, baby
Storm in a teacup
Storm in a teacup
You can drive a car, be a movie star
Any day of the week
You don't have to shout or walk about
You just have to speak
Say baby, you just have to speak
You can fly a plane, maybe go insane
Any day that you like
Everyone'll say, "Have you been away?"
Everything is alright
Say baby, everything is alright
CHORUS:
Here he come, that's a winner
Here he come, take a look, write a book
You can eat him up for dinner, yeah
You can run around over stony ground
Or lay in the sand
You don't have to show what you really know
We all understand
Say baby, we all understand
(guitar solo (Pete Ham, then Joey Molland))
REPEAT VERSE 1
CHORUS
Baby, we all understand
Baby, we all understand
Baby, we all understand
Don't let your mother see you rock

Though you've been gone for just a week
It makes me feel so sad to speak
Lady come back
I miss you
And though before I didn't cry
Now my eyes are never dry
And a thousand jesters couldn't make me smile
I miss you
I miss you
And now I know that I was wrong
But it's too late, for now you've gone
Lady come back
I miss you
And though our times were good and bad
Now you're gone, I'm always sad
And a thousand jesters couldn't make me smile
I miss you
I miss you
My life was coloured painting pictures out of tune
You came from nowhere in a song
It might have been the way I laughed, you made the jokes
Could only show me what was wrong.
He took me flying on his crimson ship
He never left me his number
He took me flying on his crimson ship
Then he was gone and I wondered.
Who put the notes on all the crosses on the hill?
Why did the old man wash his hands?
Who grew the flower that was big enough to kill?
And build the trumpet in the band?
He took me flying on his crimson ship
He never left me his number
He took me flying on his crimson ship
Then he was gone and I wondered.
When they were busy throwing kisses at the moon
Her father lost his mother's son
And though they knew the resurrection would be soon
The time was spent, they carried on.
He took me flying on his crimson ship
He never left me his number
He took me flying on his crimson ship
Angelique
Your name is whispered by the passing breeze
Proclaims your beauty to the tallest trees
And you're mine, Angelique.
Angelique
You stand alone 'cause none compares with you
So far from those who try to be with you
And you're mine, Angelique.
Angelique
Your kisses only like the morning dew
You smile, the whole wide world it smiles with you
And you're mine, Angelique.
La la la ...
And you're mine, Angelique.
I'll never be with you
Remember every touch of your hand
So I'll just dream of you
Lonely in my wonderland.
Angelique
When will I ever meet a girl like you?
And if I do, how will I know it's true
Queen of darkness colour your hair
Let it shine bright. He'll be there
Queen of lies. Magic smile
Spin your web. Watch him die
Queen of sorrow is what you are
Sad and lonely, with no truthful friends
No truthful friends
Queen of darkness with your head in your hands
So full of sorrow just won't understand
'Tween the darkness and the light
As the stars fade out of sight
I can hear his shiny boots fall on the sand.
With a basket at his side
And the morning full of pride
You can see him cast his line with skillful hands.
Hey hey, fisherman
Wish you luck, that's all I can
Hey hey, fisherman
Forget the world if that's your plan.
As the morning turns to noon
He's content to sit and croon
And he lights his twisted pipe and settles down.
Onward goes the time
As he tries new baited line
So he digs another worm up from the ground.
Hey hey, fisherman
Wish you luck, that's all I can
Hey hey, fisherman
Forget the world if that's your plan.
'Tween the nightness and the light
The line is taut, he has a bite
And he hauls the beauty in with skillful pride.
And his patient mind is blown
'Cause the fish is overgrown
It was really worth a day for such a prize.
Oh no, oh no
I think it's time for me to run
Well I've been working all the summer
Waiting for the winter to come
And if you feel like reminiscing
Walk on into the midnight sun.
Oh yeah, oh yeah
I think I've been away too long
Well I've been coming and I'm going
I know that time is growing with fun
And if you feel there's something missing
Walk on into the midnight sun.
Never be a gooseberry for gooseberries
Drop the one who's looking at you
Looking at the one who's seeing me.
Oh yeah, oh yeah
I think I've been away too long
Well I've been waiting on the summer
Don't you know the trophies I've won?
And if you feel like reminiscing
Walk on into the midnight sun.
Walk on, boy.
Oh no, oh no
I think it's time for me to run
Well I've been working all the summer
Waiting for the winter to come
And if you feel like reminiscing
Walk on into the midnight sun
And if you feel there's something missing
Walk on into the midnight sun
And if you feel like reminiscing
As we've turned these empty pages. I have seen the sweat and pain
Do we have to waste these ages. Going through it all over again?
Let's forget all the dreams we had
Play your dreams of yesterday
When will we ever learn? When will we turn around?
When will we ever learn? When will we ever learn?
All that's left now is to keep on hoping We can change the dice that's cast
I remember how they laughed then But I knew it wouldn't last
I've tried so hard to close my eyes
But I just can't close my mind
When will we ever learn? When will we turn around?
When will we ever learn? When will we ever learn?
One thing's for certain while we're here
One thing's for sure, only the fear
I've tried so hard to close my eyes
But I just can't close my mind
When will we ever learn? When will we turn around?
When will we ever learn? When will we ever learn?
Gotta get outta here
A man who feels the space begins to need the wall
Gotta be others near
Maybe someone fills the space behind the fault
Maybe not at all
Maybe not at all
Baby, a man gets wise
To running 'round in circles
He ain't got no choice
Only the fool survives
Running 'round in circles
Trying to make some noise
Got no choice
He's got no choice
Well, I learned to live without face
Learned to feed my soul
I can learn the chords to right place
Hang onto my own
(keyboard solo)
I gotta find a place
See and dream
Who knows which way the dice will fall
I got a mind to face
But maybe I can find my place behind the wall
Maybe not at all
Maybe not at all
Well, I gotta get out of here
Gotta be others near
I gotta find a place
Somewhere without a race
I gotta know it all
Don't wanna be alone
Somewhere I wanna be
Something I really see
Gotta get out of here
Gotta get out of here
You had a dream
You know you dreamt so much
You had a dream
You know it meant so much
You're just a victim of the circumstance
I mean, what else could you do?
You saw your dream and you just took a chance
And for a while your dream came true
What could you do?
You had a goal
You know you aimed so high
You had soul
You knew you had to try
You're just a victim of the time of day
No matter what you say or do
You saw your dream and you just took a play
And for a while your dream came true
What could you do?
What could you do?
(guitar solo (Pete Ham))
You're just a victim of the circumstance
I mean, what else could you do?
You saw your dream and you just took a chance
And for a while your dream came true
What could you do?
What could you do?
What could you do?
What could you do?
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Doesn't matter what you think I do
All I wanna do is see it through
You may say it's not a great romance
But all I want from you is just a chance to try
Any way at all
Don't you think we know it has to hurt
Are minds that small?
I won't tell you if it's short or long
All I know is that it don't feel wrong
You may say it's not a great romance
But all we want from you is just a chance to try
Any way we can
Don't you think we know it has to hurt
Won't you understand?
(guitar solo (Joey Molland))
Doesn't matter what you think I do
