And the caravan is on it's way
I can hear the merry gypsies play
Mama mama look at Emma Rose
She's a-playin with the radio
La, la, la, la...
And the caravan has all my friends
It will stay with me until the end
Gypsy Robin, Sweet Emma Rose
Tell me everything I need to know
La, la, la...
Turn up your radio and let me hear the song
Switch on your electric light
Then we can get down to what is really wrong
I long to hold you tight so I can feel you
Sweet lady of the night I shall reveal you
Turn it up, turn it up, little bit higher radio
Turn it up, turn it up, so you know, radio
La, la, la, la...
And the caravan is painted red and white
That means ev'rybody's staying overnight
Barefoot gypsy player round the campfire sing and play
And a woman tells us of her ways
La, la, la, la...
Turn up your radio and let me hear the song
Switch on your electric light
Then we can get down to what is really wrong
I long to hold you tight so I can feel you
Sweet lady of the night I shall reveal you
Turn it up, turn it up, little bit higher, radio
Turn it up, that's enough, so you know it's got soul
Radio, radio turn it up, hum
Night and stars above that shine so bright
The myst'ry of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sand so I may keep
This mem'ry of our caravan
This is so exciting, you are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thrill to the magic charms
Of you beside me here, beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert caravan
Night, night, night, night and stars above that shine
so bright
The myst'ry of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
Sleep upon my shoulders as we creep
Across the sand so I may keep
This mem'ry of our caravan
This is so exciting, you are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thrill to the magic charms
Of you beside me here, beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert caravan
You beside me here, beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Night and stars above that shine so bright
The mystery of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sands so I may keep
The memory of our caravan
This is so exciting, you are so inviting
Resting in my arms
Thrill to the magic, the magic of your charms
You beside me here beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert caravan, yeah
This is so exciting, you are so inviting
Resting in my arms
Thrill to the magic, the magic of your charms
Night and stars above that shine so bright
The mystery of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
That shines upon our caravan
Night and stars above that shine so bright
The mystery of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sands so I may keep
This memory of our caravan
This is so exciting, you are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thrill to all the magic charms of you
You beside me here beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert caravan
This is so exciting, you, you are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thrill to all the magic charms of you
You beside me here beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert caravan
In a world lit only by fire
Long train of flares under piercing stars
I stand watching the steamliners roll by
The caravan thunders onward
To the distant dream of the city
The caravan carries me onward
On my way at last
On my way at last
I can't stop thinking big
I can't stop thinking big
On a road lit only by fire
Going where I want, instead of where I should
I peer out at the passing shadows
Carried through the night into the city
Where a young man has a chance of making good
A chance to break from the past
The caravan thunders onward
Stars winking through the canvas hood
On my way at last
In a world where I feel so small
And the caravan is on its way
I can hear the merry gypsies play
Mama, Mama, oh will you never run away?
She laughs playing with her radio
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
And the caravan has all my friends
And they will stay with me until the end
Gypsies robbing sleep in the road
Tell me everything I need to know
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
Turn up your radio let me hear your song
Switch on your electric light
So we can get down to what is really wrong
Because I long just to hold you tight
So, that I can feel you
Sweet lady, oh Mother Night
I shall revere you, turn it up, turn it up
Moses went into the desert
Moses came back with the law
Jesus went into the desert
God only knows what he saw
Hitch up your ass and your camel
Fill up your skin at the well
Roll up your tent, whisper your prayers
Are you ready to ride through hell
(Caravan)
Moving through the night, sleeping in the light of day
(Caravan)
Spinning through the void on our way
(To anywhere)
(Caravan)
Time is just a joke, change is all we understand
(Caravan)
Life is a mirage, only a mirage dancing on the desert sand
How I recall all the mountains
How I remember the farm
Oh, how I miss the big city
With a pretty girl on my arm
Sell my best friend for some water
Cut off my leg for some shade
Sunburn these thoughts from my memory
If I live I will be remade
(Caravan)
Moving through the night, sleeping in the light of day
(Caravan)
Spinning through the void on our way
(To anywhere)
(Caravan)
Time is just a joke, change is all we understand
(Caravan)
Life is a mirage, only a mirage dancing on the desert sand
The sand is like a razor, slashing at my face
Everyone's in panic but you can't see any place
It's a sand storm, taken by surprise
Hide beneath your wrappings and cover up your eyes
Well I lost my kit and camel, maybe I will die
Feel so lost and helpless and I think I'm gonna cry
It's a sand storm, nothing you can do
No one knows if it will last, no one knows if you will make it through
It's been so long without water
Vultures are filling the air
Where is that bloody oasis
Must be around here somewhere
Time for some strong meditation
Time for the ultimate change
Time to make peace with your maker
Everything has been prearranged
(Caravan)
Moving through the night, sleeping in the light of day
(Caravan)
Spinning through the void on our way
(To anywhere)
(Caravan)
Time is just a joke, change is all we understand
(Caravan)
Life is a mirage, only a mirage dancing on the desert sand
(Caravan)
Caravan
Caravan
Caravan
O - it was a snowy night
The caravan traveling across the desert land
The stars were hanging heavy in the absence of light
And you were there and I
And something in our hearts told us to keep moving
Because there was something about that star
That Star ...
How far is the nearest place to kneel?
How far is the nearest throne?
How far how far can you go with only a dream?
With only a hope?
You take the vision and you hold it steady
Right ahead of you across the ranges across the plains
The desert land the gaze of strangers
That is how ... Hold It Steady
There was always someone who would
Take the children and keep them entertained
There was always someone who would
Lay down their work to play the children's games
There was always someone who would
know how things worked
They'd say ...THERE. Where? OVER THERE.
And now as we sit on the steps
at the side of the square
There are three wise men
sitting in their chairs
If anyone wants to know
which way any of us should go
They will hold they will contain
they will cup the refrain
Hold It Steady - take the vision - Hold It Steady
right ahead of you right between the eyes.
THAT is how.
O - It was a snowy night
and our caravan moved along
through this yet unholy land -
you were there and I was there
two desert boys - we did not understand
we only knew that something grand was happening
Caravan is lost
In the sun and the dust
No-one loves you
When you are lost
Yeah I've been a clown
Trying to pull my whole world down
I thought I was strong
But you are the one
And when it comes, you'll feel the weight of it
The weight of it
And the day and you'll get away from it,
Away from it
Sometimes everything is easy
Sometimes everything is easy
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
I try to quit
But my heart won't buy it
I got family
The caravan comes back for me
And when it comes you'll feel the weight of it,
The weight of it
And the day, and you'll get away from it
Away from it
Sometimes everything is easy
Sometimes everything is easy
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
I'm slipping away from planet earth
Hand in my pocket full of dirt
Shaking all over
Shaking all over with the funny stuff
Climbing the fens in the Norfolk Broad
Waiting for Godot and Niagara Falls
Mustn't be late for the caravan
Mustn't be early for the garbage man
I give you a host of reasons to go
You come back marked address unknown
Sandwiched between a question of honour
In the quiet mark of a medicine man
You're sitting alone at the traffic light
Night and stars above that shine so bright
The myst'ry of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sand so I may keep
The mem'ry of our caravan
This is so exciting
You are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thrill to the magic charms
Of you beside me here beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert caravan!
Purging sun and further to go
Cargo precious swaying on the beasts
Desert well, last camp, journeyed slow
Before arrival at the court of feasts
Night sky clear and cool dark indigo
Tomorrows company, the King of Sheiks
Caravan, across the sands of time
Caravan, into the winds design
Caravan, ancient nomad span
Caravan
Salt bejewelled, the traders few robes
In exchange for life brought from the land
Cecil runs a mill in the garden
Cecil Rons!
So we all go to wee in the garden
Cecil Rons!
So we all go to wee in the garden
Oh, what a beautiful scene!
Playing underneath my tree
Oh, what a beautiful scene I see!
Oh, what a beautiful scene!
Playing underneath my tree
Got a gig I'd like you to know, we're leaving here
tonight
We're going just to sing our song and everything's all
right
And we'll be missing you but that's for me to care
Gotta go, better tell you now, 'cause something's in the
Don't care if I do it or die, that don't mean a thing
Yes indeed that's all we need - so everybody, sing!
Count it out, but into yourself, love that's the thing
It's there just if you don't know, it makes your body
sing
I'm talkin' about me, myself, and all the world around
Wanna see you take you by the hand and do some mess
around
Don't have to know, don't have to know, lovin' takes you
back
Gets about and I wanna shout, so everybody sing!
We'll get you, we'll get you everyday
Get you, we'll get you every way
Get you, when night-time comes along
From the forest down below
Came a voice that cried "no"
Something seemed nearly dead
Making me feel so cold
Even the trees seemed to fear
There was something unreal
Couldn't see very far
And the sky had gone dark
So we ran, yeah, as fast as we can
Only thought to get away
On and on we didn't know where we'd gone
If it was night or day
"Come back", I can hear a voice call
I can feel it pulling me down
In my head it felt like something had said
You better slow down
But I tried so hard not to make a sound
Feeling better I turned round
And coming up behind me I could see...
Like shadows in the trees
They came creeping unknown
Keeping close through the ground
I can feel them tramp on
Saw the music they knew
We were somewhere close by
They began to crowd us in
After all, your day is done and the nighttime's calmed
Till the dawn comes again and the sunlight warms you
There is a light in the fire, reflected in your eyes
So with the warmth of desire that comes out of the glow
Shining on your face above, making shadows on the wall
Baby I know, baby I know
No disgrace can cause a shadow to rest on your face
But Heaven knows where it comes and where it all goes
But there is a bright shiny day waiting to be called
If you've the will, there's a way to brighten up your
life
Oh, silver lining calling me, keep my head above
Baby I know, baby I know
Don't cry, don't sigh, don't spend your life off the
wall
Living a love with a sad face won't do no good, won't
do no good at all
Someday, some way, somebody'll open your eyes
Then you'll be like a sunshine, when the dawning comes
and you'll be never surprised
Feel the glow, reaching out in through my window
For when you smile, it touches me somewhere deep down
inside
For you are a bright shiny day come to take me back
I got a will, you're the way, you brighten up my life
With a smile, you called at me with a message from
above
Better by some, better by far
Better to have tried than never
Back of a bus, seat of a car
Than never to have tried at all
Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong
Maybe I'm a fool about you
Can tell there's no way I'm gonna stay
With then what else was so long
Oh, what I wanna do is just lay down with you tonight
Set 'em up boy, wanna make love tonight
Easily come, easily go
Easy to believe in nothing
Set 'em up fast, take 'em down slow
Give it down and have aa ball
You can buy gin, you can by hymn
And you can buy the world around you
But you can get roughed, and you can get fluffed
If you'd have no love at all
Oh, what I wanna do is just a lay down with you tonight
Set 'em up boy, wanna make love tonight
Oh, I got a love and I just want to let it grow
Oh, a gift from above, tellin' me, tellin' me to let it
show
Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong
Maybe I'm a fool about you
Maybe I'll fight, maybe I've flung it
all around for too long
Bet you I will be lovin' you still
Well it's often bad around you
You and I must take it on trust
We're gonna carry on...
So, what I wanna do is just a lay down with you tonight
Twas with no surprise I could feel his eyes
A-comin' straight through the back of my head
So I took my flight by the pale moonlight
No instinct to guide me, I fled
"If I catch you still with my wife I'll kill you, boy"
That's what he told me before
I didn't pay no heed cause she said I'd need
So I kept going back there for more
Look out behind you, all right
If you don't leave it alone
He's gonna hound you all night
Said slow down boy and they'll carry you home
There could be no way I was going to stay
With a man like that on my heel
He was six foot four and could eat a door
And his fists were like great blocks of steel
But his wife was rude and it seemed so good
To have fun while he was away
While he lived in hope of the sale of soap
Like the cat and the mouse we would play
Look out behind you, all right
If you don't leave it alone
He's gonna hound you all night
Said slow down boy and they'll carry you home
It was late that night when he came inside
I could see through the glass by the door
For his key had stuck and I praised my luck
As I dived from the bed to the floor
When I heard him yell like a bat from hell
I was out enough down the road
Twas with no surprise I could feel his eyes
And imagine the gun that he'd load
Right up behind me all right
Cos I couldn't leave it alone
He will hound me all night
With a song on my mind
I'm thinking of you
Through the dreams of a million eyes
I'll stand still with you
And wait till I find
The world that you're searching for
A cloud-coloured blind
Has entered my eyes
And everything's going
A slight shade of purple
But me, I don't mind
Today is my day
I'm living the life that I choose
I've found a way...
I can see a noser
Sit there all alone
And dream I'm sitting here
While magic fires the moon
I turn around my mind
And bid farewell to fear
Swimming through a wish
That I know I'm in a dream
I'm changing the music by ear
I'll have to leave behind
To reensure them in
And wanting oh so clear
Deep insert of time
I catch my breath to find I've got so far to go
Howlin' through the trees
A cry which is my ears
I turn around and go
Following the dream
Is not the easiest thing
Out of the shadows I see
And blackened till the moon
A magic creature moves
You talk of all the many things that you have
And you smile from day to day
But no one has ever seen any of these
And those smiles just fade away
Someone keeps shouting out 'I want to know'
Well I can't help singing this song
When they tell me that the devil is a gentleman too
I know I can't go wrong
I have to slip away today
I've been invited down to stay
Yes I feel my going down
They say that eight fishes call men in the sea
And use man-made for the bait
And shoots all the people that fly in the sky
That chance on his estate
That feeds on salmon, that just has to be seen
And none but he can do
They tell me this and they tell me that
And tell me this is always, always something new
You'd better believe it's so
I made up my mind to go
A whole world waits for you
I'll sit with my head thrust down on your knees
And smile for you again
And you won't have to worry about anything now
I'll be halfway there by ten
It only takes a moment to decide on the move
It all seems so absurd
Still I know that the devil is a gentleman too
Who never keeps his word
I made up my mind to go
You'd better believe it's so
Once I had a dream, nothing else to do
Sat and played my mind in time with all of you
Got down in the road
Crossed my heart and cried
When you told me how you'd love
To live and not to die
Why why why?
I wish I were stoned on my mind
Why why why, oh why?
Dreamed I saw a man walked upon the sea
Dreamed it once again and saw that he was me
Looking close at me I looked a lot like you
Knowing where to go but not quite what to do
Why why why?
I wish I were stoned on my mind
Why why why, oh why?
Give me all your love in a smile
And I'll tell you what I'm thinking
Let me see the world through your eyes
And I'll show you where I'm sitting
Once I had a dream, nothing else to do
Sat and played my mind in time with all of you
Got down in the road
Crossed my heart and cried
When you told me how you'd love
To kill and not to die
Why why why?
I wish I were stoned on my mind
The man who wrenthed
And danced while he sang
Sits in the back of my head
He wears Navy Blue
And he knows what to do
When he meets with his lady friend
He came home yesterday
From a trip far away
Tells me I've got a new face
And it wasn't my fault
The day he got caught
Though only 5'4, you could see he was a man among men
Kickin' him to the floor, right, his eyes would only water
Thankin' one once again you could hear him saying in that order now
Ease him while you can, start pickin' what you oughta
Some say he's a little crazy
'Bad Smell' is passing by
Maybe he's living in a haze
But you should see that boy fly
Standing not far away, you could see him with a finger up his nose
Can't bring myself to say what he's doing with the other
Twice in the afternoon he would come out with his head up in a cloud
Selling hot-air balloons to the people who could bother
His smile would send you senses reeling
From your toe jump to your head
And his breath would guarantee you see
That you would rather be dead
Though he may seem a little crazy
Distasteful to your eye
He may be living in a haze
But you should see that boy fly
Some said he's a little crazy
'Bad Smell' is passing by
He'll change the expression on your face
For you I would change the day
Wrap it up and take it all away
Give the night to the morning
Let it ride on into the sky
You know you just came to see
Not what was right, but what was wrong with me
And I got strength from your feeling
When you smiled you'd pass me on by
Come on back, come on back
Lord knows I got a lack
Only when you come, you know that we'll be one
So come... back
With you, all the world would be
So small that you could hardly see
The amount of confusion
Leading all who'll pass life on by
Some time when you're feeling low
We can take the time to get up and go
From this world to another
By balloon I'll take you there, so...
Come on back, come on back
Lord knows I got a lack
Only when you come, you know that we'll be one
You know he's moving fast,
Be he's still going slow,
He's ahead in the race,
And there is not far to go,
And your load is so heavy
And your legs want to rest.
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.
You think he's way up in front
But he's so far behind.
He's asleep in the grass,
And he's run out of time.
While your load was so heavy
You never wanted to stop.
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.
Your friend is heavy
But he was ready
And never stopped for a while
And while you were sleeping
He went on keeping the final line in his mind.
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.
Your friend is heavy
But he was ready
And never stopped for a while
And while you were sleeping
He went on keeping the final line in his mind.
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.
Cecil runs a mill in the garden
Cecil Rons!
So we all go to wee in the garden
Cecil Rons!
So we all go to wee in the garden
Oh, what a beautiful scene!
Playing underneath my tree
Oh, what a beautiful scene I see!
Oh, what a beautiful scene!
Playing underneath my tree
You came back too late in better sunshine
Smiled like never before
But you know I got such a lazy feeling
I doubt if I saw you at all
It was no, my man, I was so completely
swollen right to the core
With a constitution of funny faces
and memories of her before
I was keeping back my love
And saved my time for you
Keeping back my love
And saving all my dreams for your heart
You may need somebody to make it better
So don't you need a lie?
Well you may be tall and you know it all
But I'm certain we'll show you a time
If you're feeling hooked, make it good
But there's no point leaving alone
If it makes you sick when you take your kicks
Well, you'd do better going on home
I was keeping back my love
And saved my time for you
Keeping back my love
Well if I say to you I could forget it
Believing out a lie
Easy come, easy go my time had been
Until you came into my life
If I could do again I'd beg and borrow
For a second time around
But I wouldn't change my life by a single day
If I couldn't have you for dreamin' of
Takin' it all the way
You and I, we had much better than before
Better then or after
Doin' it all the way
You and I, we had time for nothing more
Time to keep on loving, still...
In what you'd say, you'd never make a mountain
Though you sometimes disappeared
Leaving me with all my own so I could see
All the seed I'd planted could be grown
Diving in all the way
Must admit we had much better than before
Better then or after
Doin' it all the way
You and I we had time for nothing more
Time to keep on loving... till
All alone and ridin' home while you'd always find me there
Getting on, whatever comes into my mind while you'd always find me there
Oh, if you got to be someone, let it shine on out of your eyes
Till the feeling gets to you so strong that you can open up the skies...
A year or so, the day it comes tomorrow
I saw you on the line
Between the worlds of fantasy and swollen girls
Never knew I'd see a better time
Takin' it all the way
You and I we had much better than before
Better then or after
Doin' it all the way
You and I we had time for nothing more
I've seen days where there's always sunshine
I've stood days in the pouring rain
I fall over myself and sometimes
I get back on my feet again
So you got me all wrong
Cause I can see what you mean a lot more than you know
You got me all wrong
And I can see you're just stuck in a hole - stuck in a
hole
Don't ask when you know what I said
You can't do nothing wrong from right
If you come sleeping and passing my way
We'll go lazing around tonight
Don't get me all wrong
Cause you can't see what I mean a lot more than you know
Don't get me all wrong
Cause you and me, we'll be stuck in a hole - stuck in a
How did we feel that way?
I can't see what was happening
Do you still remember
How it came to be another way?
Two into time
Yes, we passed by as one together
Give us a chance too
Making songs and signs for
Open mind
Other people, must they see in through our blinds?
No of course no
At the time it was fine
Ain't life a disaster?
You go too deeply
I know what you're feeling
Does not fit in reality
You can't leave the scene now
That's more than you can tolerate
Later on too
Stop the showdown
You can star in
Oh, let me hear the silver strings
Oh, hear those violins and things
Oh, when the music starts to play
You know it carries me away
Oh, oh - oh let me here the silver strings
Oh, with a fiddle and a bow
You know there's places you can go
If you can just get there in tune
You know you're spending that aloon
Oh, oh - oh let me hear the silver strings
Silver strings
You know they never used to
Mean a thing
You know they never used to
Listen when the fiddler starts to play
Now they clap their hands
I saw her flying on a rocket-fly moon
She was smiling like a wheeler at the races
Come ride my rocket-fly moon
And I'm sure you could see a lot of places
But the man in a car is just dreaming
Opening up his eyes
Onl the suit must have seen me
To fill up his tears with eyes
Saw her rocking like a mother typhoon
She could sway like the mother of a candle
Oh no, she's going to rock on me soon
And that's sure that's how a lot of men go
I know I should have notified you
But it's hard from a lot of different places
My girl, I should have rocket-fly'd you
But it's gone and I fear her at the graces
And the man in a car is still dreaming
Opening up his eyes
Holding his heart that's still bleeding
There's a place where I can go, where I listen to the
wind singing
Songs of happiness I know, and it brings it all back
again
Somewhere deep inside of me, there's a song that I can
sing
Jigsaw puzzles on a tree, and it brings it all back again
Will the day be warm and bright, or will it snow?
There are people waiting here who really want to know
And sometimes I think of wine, songs and laughter flowing
free
People talking all the time, and it brings it all back to
Will the day be warm and bright, or will it snow?
There are people waiting now who really have to know
Can't you feel it in the air? I wonder what it's meant to
It's the thought that can't be spared, and it brings it
all back to me
Saw you at the corner of me eye on second day
Wondered what I'd done wrong but I stayed there anyway
Saw you in the classroom and I saw you in the street
Knew your name and knew your face and landed on me feet
Oh, we was dancing!
Oh, was romancing!
Oh, we was dancing!
Oh, couldn't chance it
You were going out with someone I called me best friend
Tried to look him in the eye, it's useless to pretend
Saw you in the classroom and I saw you in the street
Clear blue sky
Like a angel's eye
That clear blue sky
It makes me sigh - sigh
When I think of all my daydreams
When I think of all my fears
All my fears
Just as pure as glue
Like an angel's eye
When I come too
Here am I, alone in your sky
With my mind passing by the thoughts in your eye
If I were you, and you were me,
Could you feel how unreal your world seems to be?
Oh please, don't mind that I'm here
For who am I when you're near?
I'll try to find a place in my mind
Where you know you can go, and leave all behind
How does it feel when a dream seems so real
And you fly through my eye on a steel rainbow wheel?
Searching my mind for thoughts left behind
Let you feel you're concealed by a smile-coloured blind
Oh please, don't mind that I'm here
For who am I when you're near?
I'll try to find a place in my mind
In my world of sleepers
everything will be erased
I'll be your religion
your only endless ideal
Slowly we crawl in the dark
swallowed by the seductive night
In dreams of you I wish a song on everyone
A gift of love to fill your eyes, to fill your eyes
And if I turn your head awhile, my heart will sing
Thunder songs of love to make you smile
I've travelled far in search of things I didn't know
I could have found as well at home as in the skies
There's so much time misspent in dreams of wealth and
fame
When all you need is love in your eye
Take a cup of newfound wealth
Drink it down and do yourself
Let your feelings tell you why
Have no fear for lonely days
Mind in hand you'll find a way
You must believe me till you've tried
Come the day
Insomuch as we can tell
A shadow clears anew before me
Sing your song
And through our needs we'll tag along
We can see you creeping, Mr.Policeman
Looking through the keyhole in the door
Taking notes of all that floats
With the beat your marching feet
Shiny shoes, looking for clues
Do come in, we'll offer you a rissole
If you will only blow your whistle for me
And then we'll be good, I know we should
Take the time to change our minds
We will pay our parking fines - sure!
I'm the same as you, please Mr.Policeman
It's just, I'd like to stay behind my door
You can't stop me laughing Mr.Policeman
You'd better find out what I'm smiling for
No, I ain't broke the law
Hey man, don't put me in your van
Please see it's free, I wanna be to dig the scene
Ah, weed the green
Oh, forty people more locked behind the door
In the bathroom
Hope you don't go in for at least an hour
They're taking it in turns to have a shower
We can see you creeping, Mr.Policeman
Looking through the keyhole in our door
Taking notes of all that floats
With the beat your marching feet
Shiny shoes, looking for clues
Do come in, we'll offer you a rissole
If you will only blow your whistle for me
And then we'll be good, I know we should
Take the time to change our minds
Would you like to ride with me
While you're waiting for the band to come?
Can tell me all you'd like to see
While you're waiting for the band to come
Would you make me take me slightly for you?
If we talked about your pride and swollen gladness too
You and I our only need
Waiting for the band to come
Searching for someone to see
And hoping that the band will come
...taste in one mind
And with ... you maybe left behind
Would you like to ride with me
While you're waiting for the band to come?
Searching for someone to see
And hoping that the band will come
Would you make me take me slightly for you?
If we talked about your pride
and swollen gladness too?
- + - + - + -
Would you believe it possible
To leave yourself behind?
Turning upside down inside out
Now someone else my mind
Help me, someone
Someone please help me
- + - + - + -
So, where but for you would I
Dream and make your face my eyes
Turning so slow, taking care
Just a smile I do for you
So wipe away all those fears
I'm longing to feel you here
Go slipping by while you stand
Mind in hand with me, with me
- + - + - + -
Would you like to ride with me
While you're waiting for the band to come?
Can tell me all you'd like to see
While you're waiting for the band to come?
Would you make me take me slightly for you?
Winter Wine
How you're always flowing, blowing in my mind
Like a stream, these magic waters move me to a dream
Of travelling with you, drifting carefree, dropping downward through fresh grasses
Bubbles merrily as it passes, never knowing where you're going
Carry me with you, carry me with you
Be conjured up in a midnight dream, ancient castles dark
As wandering minstrels play tunes of yesterday
When dragons roamed the land, knights in armour gold
Charged on horseback bold
The maids were saved, the dragons slayed
Sail scene, sea green - sailing forward to a new land
Treasure waits, paradise gates, for the taking, can't start waiting
All you need, but take heed, remember it pays to pay the sandman well
Make no fuss, for you must - in stardust, he puts all the colours in your dreams
Bells chime three times, naked dancers enter slowly
Smoky room, scented gloom, audience eating, fat men drinking
Candles burn, a dull red light illuminates the breasts of four young girls
Dancing, prancing, provoking - dreams are always ending far too soon
Life's too short to be sad, wishing things you'll never have
You're better off not dreaming of the things to come
Dreams are always ending far too soon
Sounds of a distant melody, once played, lost from memory
Funny how it's clearer now, you're close to me
Don't try to find stars in my eyes
We've been there before - and seen...
Just take what you need to find the sun
For you and I, we have the dream to come
Way past the sky of wine-coloured seas
Down through the land of limbo
From here and there, a cry can be heard
Not knowing whether to come - or go
Soon you will see all the stars
But will you know what you feel, yeah?
Don't listen to the man in the skies
He lives with the bottle, dream man
He'll take what he can, with his thoughts in his hand
So follow me now and we'll find the sun
[Instrumental section]
Now I'm here, please make yourself at home
Climb inside our fire
Can you see that you never were alone
And your world is getting higher?
We'll take time to play for you now
So fly into my eye
We'll take our time flyin', we'll take our time
We need you mind to be flyin', we need your mind...
Tell me if there's anything that you need
We'll find you another dream
Just a smile you'll find will make your own scenes so hot!
Through the trees that grow by the mill
We can sing a song of laughter
And goin' round your dreams on a hill
Find what you are after
What you make of your world is your own
I was never warned
About people like you
I never really learned
About people like you
You changed my life around
You let me fall in love with you
Well I never dreamed
It would be this way
It never really seemed
There would come the day
You changed my life around
You let me fall in love with you
Waking is so nice now, sleeping is a dream
Living is so fine, nothing seems mean
Sad times are on ice now, troubles hide away
Living is so fine - welcome the day!
Well I never lived
Till I met you
Now I only give
When I give to you
You changed my life around
You let me fall in love with you - yes you did!
I was never warned
About people like you
I never really learned
About people like you
You changed my life around
The view - Sixth Avenue
The legs of Waterloo Lily
Black tights for dark nights
On a trip through Picadilly
If you knew the kind of glue
She gums her eyelids with
Realise, on those eyes
That's a gum you'd rather not use
From a jar, in the house of Waterloo Lily
Painted red, the double bed
The biggest in the city
Especially sprung, hung undone
To stimulate delight
Sex machines seem but clean
She does things, you call her true
Waterloo Lily's got enough to turn us all on
Got a bra to fit a car
A port upon her back you warm your feet on
A corset keeps her in
So when you pull a string it lets it all out
Lily Waterloo, Piccadilly blue
Pint of white on Lily's lip
The daily upper door
Down the caff, a cup of char
Double dogwalk, brown and British
Imagine you and Lily too
Aboard a double bunk
Riding two, it's out of view
All the things your sister won't...
Waterloo Lily's got enough to turn us all on
Got a bra to fit a car
A port upon her back you warm your feet on
A corset keeps her in
So when you pull a string it lets it all out
Watcha gonna tell me if you're not growing old?
Think about the love that's lost when I'm all alone
Give a little thought to all the times that we had
Can't you see what you're doing to me?
Don't you know it makes me really sad?
Watcha gonna tell me when the night fades away?
Where you gonna run to in the cold light of day?
Think about it now cause it might get you, you know
Seems to me if you wanna be free
So there, hardly a word spoken, never care
Someone you know very well passing you by
Smile just the same, though you know you've got
yourself to blame
It's hard to tell what the world has got you by
So, living a life that you never know
Maybe one day will come to be a song
And all the world will seem so big and beautiful
Never know what it is but it goes on
So we're coming with you, we're coming back to fight
again
Back with our love for a place in your heart
And we'll be together, never we'll seem the same again
Oh, how I love you, now we're not apart
Come back, the time we'll have and we'll make life a
part of you
I've tried, I know I've tried but it took so bloody
long
Unknown you don't see much so you must be a part of me
That's just the way I'd have you sung
So meet you there
With your head in the clouds, crying out loud
When we've done all the things that we said we could do
We'll bring for you a gold studded crown you could wear
upside down
Just for laughs if that's what you want it to, want it
to...
So we're coming with you, we're coming back to fight
again
Back with our love for a place in your heart
And we'll be together, never we'll seem the same again
The world is mine but for a time
Please hear the love I bring for you to follow
Come with me, with diamonds in the sea
And stare the hearts of men whose fight in sorrow
It's foolish to suppose you know me well, I know
Everything that I touch won't turn to gold
Money's not my way although your own lost soul's
Waiting for the day to break that hole
And I love you
I've never loved someone like I do
I love you
The world is yours if you want me to
I love you
I've never loved someone like I do
Whisper please some scandal to the trees
I'm sure they would enjoy themselves enormously
Will you and I sit up in the sky
And chase our minds through space and time relentlessly?
Circumstances indicate for you and I
If the time is right, we bid a fond farewell
Some friends of mine, the world they take on for a while
Then seldom find the time they know so well
And I love you
I've never loved someone like I do
I love you
The world is yours if you love me too
I love you
Flower in a garden
A garden with no gate
Bar imprisoned by its crystals
The summer came too late
To melt the snow
On white hedgerows
Don't let the winter hide you
Or freeze your love for me
Like frozen flowers forgotten
They're flying in the cold
Completely lost
In winter's frost
I remember still
The colour of your hair
As I stare
Through sunshine
Spend these lonely hours
Dreaming of your touch
I came to love so much
Its springly frozen flowers
That warm your love for me
For winter can't last long
I tell you that I love you
But still you do not hear
And in my dreams I find you
But like mist you disappear
In the gloom of my room
Forgotten frozen flowers
Like flying in the cold
In winter's frost
I tell you that I love you
But still you do not hear
And in my dreams I find you
But like mist you disappear
Have you heard our story?
A mystery it seems
Gather 'round, come listen
See the spectacle within
Take your seats and in a moment
The curtain will rise
Presenting the show of our lives
The curtains draw slowly
The fanfare sounds true
The audience starts cheering
The spotlight's on you
As the scene grows before you
The mirror is set
A performance we will not forget
For this is the show of our lives
The stage is still and silent
No cries, no cheers, no-one
And yet we feel the glory
The show still goes on
So ring the bells and sing
Shout with all your hearts set
A performance we will not forget
For this is the show of our lives
Ring the bells and sing
After all this time it's got no better
And the words just seem to pass me by
So I think of you in the morning
Singing a song to fill my eyes
Here I go
Can you sing along?
Stopped to say hello
Something overcame me
Didn't want to go and pass you by
Looked at me so fair
Saw the sun upon you
Blow and slip through your hands
Summer stole away
All the breath within me
Leavin' me gaspin' for some air
Have so much to say
Hardly seem to matter
You were more than some one day
Didn't we believe we were so?
Didn't we believe we were something?
Didn't we believe we were more?
So much more than words can say
Suddenly sunshine, sudden love
When the years are gone
And we live on memories
Will you still remember me that way?
Like I do you too
No matter where I could be
Some things no one can steal away
Didn't we believe we were so?
Didn't we believe we were something?
Didn't we believe we were more?
So much more than I don't know
Suddenly sunshine, sudden love
Didn't want to go
Didn't want to leave you
Something pulling me back hurt me so
Wakin' up I found feet upon the pillow
Take a sip from my magic cup
And then time pass you by
You might as well be with me
Cause there's luck in your eye
"Shall; I not be your friend"
I heard her say so peacefully
And then smile away the time
And tings to me
What with the mood I'm in
I don't know, I dunno
I never was a strength of mind
And there's side, yes I know
"Come; on in, come on" she said
I've got to go, and I go fast
There's a time to be hend by all
But it won't last
Come with me, tell no lie
Or you won't see another day
You'll be the kind of yesteryear
And that's the way you will stay
"Give; me fire", I cried out loud
"Give; it to me all the time"
What I need no asking twice
Is to words I couldn't find
I could hardly believe my eyes
When I saw her standing here
She had flowered herself in green
And had diamonds in her hair
Was it real or was it just a dream
That was to fade away from me?
Yesterday's face
Is not the one I choose to see
Nor is the face
Of someone who gets much too close to me
I've got this place of my own
Where I can go when I feel I'm coming down
We'll do our best to ensure
You'll feel secure if you come
Love is the thing you crave
But it lies asleep inside of all your heads
Please, why don't you live a bit today?
For tomorrow you may find that you are dead
I've got this place of my own
Where I can go when I feel I'm coming down
We'll do our best to ensure
From a distant room came a lonely tune, hangs heavy in
the air
Sounds of scene where often been of depression and
despair
People laughing and joking, drinking and smoking, they
are not aware
Of the guy or his song as the piano plays on, they
don't really care
He's just paid to please them, he's a clown without a
face
A sound to fill their silence, a soul that leaves no
trace
Every happy song is drowned in, drowned in sorrow
Yet no one sees the tears in his eyes
His dreams are gone, no special song, no tomorrow
No chorus as his spirit slowly dies
In the hazy gloom of this living tomb, a stripper earns
her pay
To lusty cheers and the drunken leers, the piano fades
away
As she sheds her clothes in a vulgar pose, she strips
him of all pride
Yet he plays on such a desperate song, feels a savage
changing tide
Won't someone help me?
I just want to play my song
If only you would only listen
I'd be so happy if you all would sing along
I'd have the things that I've been missing
But very soon came the final tune, no worry turned to
song
Just an empty stool and a stagehand's call, his
weakness was too strong
So twisted and high while starting to fly, he saw the
changing tide
And he followed its will, until all was still, the
Now that it's done
I can see we've got it all back together
Signs in your eyes, in my smile
Show it all, show it all
Sometimes it all seemed much better
Nobody ever to guide you
Always so easy just wanting to please with your eyes
Travelling unknown, singing songs
Doing all with whatever
We'll be right, we'll be wrong
But we'll do it all, do it all
Don't know what lay down beside me
Slowly taking me over
Changing my mind without reason or rhyme from that goal
Oh, I'd work it out slowly
Oh, I'd take it as it comes
Oh, I'd talk it all over
Oh, shove it back where it comes
In my mind, I can find
All I need for whatever
And as such, don't need much
To get me by, get me by
A smile, a laugh can be better
A million or two just in case
I don't feel at ease and there's something it'd please
me to find
Oh, I'm working it slowly
Oh, I'll take it as it comes
Oh, I'll spread it all over
Oh, shove it back where it comes
Have you been done
Are you one or don't you know altogether?
Don't you think it all stinks
Or do you know not at all?
Don't wait for someone to guide you
Maybe it won't seem much better
Take what you can, there's time in your hands passing
When I've got time on my side, there's nothing I can do
to escape from the scenes that have been making me want you
So I think of the dreams that I've had, and what's left I'd like to do
But my mind draws a blind over me and all I see is you
Look into my eyes - tell me what you see - listen to me now
I'm needing you - though it may not seem to be
I'm needing you - you're all I care to see
I'm needing you - and you, you...
I'm needing you - and you, you...
I can feel the sun in my hair when I'm sitting here with you
Who cares if I'm lost in my mind? My dreams are overdue
I've been living more for myself than I've ever done before
And my feeling's so real over you, I keep coming back for more
When I look at me, all that I feel and all I see is you - so look into my eyes
I'm needing you - though it may not seem to be
I'm needing you - you're all I care to see
I'm needing you - and you, you...
Look at the day that is dawning: what do you see with your eyes?
Think of me now while you're yawning, sunshine the tears from my cries
What I see I know is real, what I touch I know I feel
If I don't care for what you say, it won't mean much to me today
For I see your world that is living, my mind is yours, yours is mine
Don't talk to me 'bout forgiving, so much to do, no more time
All my love goes straight to you with just a thought for something new
All I have is what you feel with hands in mouth, you gently kneel
What I see I know is real, what I touch I know I feel
All my love goes straight to you, all my love is you...
- + - + - + -
There's a place where I can go, where I listen to the wind singing
Songs of happiness I know, and it brings it all back again
Somewhere deep inside of me, there's a song that I can sing
Jigsaw puzzles on a tree, and it brings it all back again
Will the day be warm and bright, or will it snow?
There are people waiting here who really want to know
And sometimes I think of wine, songs and laughter flowing free
People talking all the time, and it brings it all back to me
Will the day be warm and bright, or will it snow?
There are people waiting now who really have to know
Can't you feel it in the air? I wonder what it's meant to be
It's the thought that can't be spared, and it brings it all back to me
Sat down, turn around boy, gotta let out of here
Silly little sod, you made me shed a tear
Showing me minor roads of very cold
Making the world so young and me so old
Time dying, time dying, doing what I could in the day
Lazy little swine, I'm sure I heard you say
"Sure I took a trip or two inside my head"
Was there in the road you showed me, stone cold dead
Yours was a face I remember very well
See it, touch, feel, even smell
Imagine how I felt when the face I saw was me
Chrissakes end down the line, set me free
When the time is over - oh, oh, oh
And you're feeling somewhat colder - oh, oh, oh
And your face is on the run
And your body's almost done
Well, you won't have to notice anymore
Come inside and tell me - oh, oh, oh
What you're tryin' to sell me - oh, oh, oh
Did it ever cross your mind ?
Did you ever read a sign ?
Well, you won't have to notice anymore
Hear me a-callin', I've got a dream in my hand
I close my eyes and realise, now I understand
If you've got a problem - Christ, you've got to unload
Come in, everybody, just make yourself at home
You can dance all night, you can feel alright till
tomorrow
Come in, anybody, just treat it as your own
There's a lot to say if you wanna stay till tomorrow
Take the daily strain from upon your brain
And move around at ease
Give yourself a break from the same mistakes
Close the window now and breathe
Come on, take your shoes off, make yourself at home
Have a drink or two, it'll see you through till tomorrow
Come in, everybody, just make yourself at home
You can dance all night, you can feel alright till
tomorrow
Laugh on, dance on, sing on, and join the company
Just forget the time, have some peace of mind
Come in anybody, in our hospitality
Sittin' in my treetop world, doing nothing at all
Just floating in the sky, I'm free
Envy me all you want, it don't mean a thing
But join me anytime, if you please
I'm lazy I know, but I do anything that I want to do
Fly to my arms and feel your fantasies coming through
I'm a magic man on a sea, in the sky
A magic man on a sea, in the sky
Join me and see... in the sky
I know that I am not too far away for you to come to
There ain't a storm that my ship can't carry you through
I know that you know in your mind that I'm right, it's good to be free
Soft Machines, Heart Club Bands and all, are welcome here with me
I'm lazy I know, but I do anything that I want to do
Fly to my arms and feel your fantasies coming through
I'm a magic man on a sea, in the sky
A magic man on a sea, in the sky
Lover, why don't you phone?
It's lonely and I need you near me
I don't believe it's over
Lover, you know I feel as if I talk too much
Shut me up, hold me close
Lover, when you come to me
I feel as if you never left
I need you to remind me
Lover, you know I don't know what it is with you
Shut me up, hold me close
Lover, why aren't you here?
It's lonely and I need you near me
I dreamed of all the magic things that be
When we'd ride to a dock on bended knee
But you'd just smile and gently shake your head
And put a hole through me so I was dead
Oh, I'd fall down and I was left alone
With a feeling of you still that was my own
Oh, I would love to, love to love you
Yes, indeed, I do love you, love you
My, my, pigs might fly, that can't be bad
How you have the cheek to smile and tell me I'm mad
A man came through the wall and stood by me
Complete with bag of nuts and fancy free
He said without a tonal fleeting glance
"I;'d like to get deep down inside your pants"
How you opened up his head and smiled
And rubbish from your mouth you ticked inside
Oh, I would love to, love to love you
Yes, indeed, I do love you, love you
My, my, pigs might fly, that can't be bad
If you don't know, back in the limes
Gotta get used to your feelings
No, no, you can't knock all the time
Don't know then how you feel
Well I wanna see walk a wonder
Such talk will make for you only sorrow
You bet, I love you so
But I want on my way
And I can't stay till tomorrow
Gotta look on the left, look on the right
Gotta believe that there's something
I don't know much, but I love you still
That I do
In through the back, out through the head
Take all the time that you find there
Sit right down on a belliful packet for two
Break down the line, shake off the head
Put down a sunny time feeling
Ask how and decided you're dead
Welcome back ------- real
Thank God you offer time for coming
After all no one knows till tomorrow
Turn off your magic -------
Went down to the corner, sunshine in my hand
I tried to sell the truth but I couldn't make it stand
Ooh, come on, I cry, cause I'm feeling kinda low
Let it shine, let it shine, let it grow
And when you feel someone closing down on me
I'm going to myself just to see what I can see
And when the stars are right I'll come sailing right on
Where the sun won't go wrong, long as I
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine on the road
ahead
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine on the road
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine on the road
ahead
Cause it's carrying me home again
So when all around you, I'm going down so fast
That you can see on you averted they have passed
Don't let them satisfy the need to tell you so
Let it shine, let it shine, let it show
And when the four winds blow and you're feeling kind of
small
Everything's wrong and nothing's right at all
Ooh, you go into yourself and find a way ahead
It's very clear to me you're better off
Instead of feeling lonely, instead of feeling blue
You come on with a smile that comes sailing right on
through
Wait till the stars above and the ground way down below
Let it shine, let it shine, let it show
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine on the road
ahead
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine on the road
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine on the road
ahead
I'd lost all the breath within me
As I went up on the hill
When there she was, with a sad expression
Saying, oh my name is Jill
And I can't find how to get some water
Can you help me? Say you will!
For your time I will reward you
And you know I surely will
How could I refuse a lady
When she'd put it quite so well?
There was I in a situation
With no-one around to tell
So all that day, I put some water
In the bucket by the well
When she smiled, I felt her harder
But on the way I fell...
Down - right down to the bottom
Ooh ooh ooh - right down to the bottom
I didn't mind spilling all the water
If I'd satisfied myself
There the time didn't really matter
It could have been somebody else
She would say I will reward you
And even thought it cost a crown
Now I find my life is sweeter
Every time I fall down...
So all that day, I put some water
In the bucket by the well
When she smiled, I felt her harder
But on the way I fell... fell... fell... fell...
Down - right down to the bottom
In the land of grey and pink where only boy-scouts stop to think
They'll be coming back again, those nasty grumbly grimblies
And they're climbing down your chimney, yes they're trying to get in
Come to take your money - isn't it a sin, they're so thin ?
They've black buckets in the sky, don't leave your dad in the rain
Cigarettes burn bright tonight, they'll all get washed down the drain
So we'll sail away for just one day to the land where the punk weed grows
Won't need any money, just fingers and your toes
And when it's dark our boat will park on a land of warm and green
Pick our fill of punk weed and smoke it till we bleed, that's all we'll need
While sailing back in morning light, we'll wash our teeth in the sea
And when the day gets really bright, we'll go to sea drinking tea
So we'll sail away for just one day to the land where the punk weed grows
Won't need any money, just fingers and your toes
And when it's dark our boat will park on a land of warm and green
Pick our fill of punk weed and smoke it till we bleed, that's all we'll need
They've black buckets in the sky, don't leave your dad in the rain
Who do you think you are?
Do you think you
Who do you think you are?
Do you think you
I really don't know
I really don't know
Gimme that stuff enough enough to slow me down
I'll give you anything that I've got if you take me away
Lovin' is the stuff the thing the thing that slows me down
Flower in a garden
A garden with no gate
Bar imprisoned by its crystals
The summer came too late
To melt the snow
On white hedgerows
Don't let the winter hide you
Or freeze your love for me
Like frozen flowers forgotten
They're flying in the cold
Completely lost
In winter's frost
I remember still
The colour of your hair
As I stare
Through sunshine
Spend these lonely hours
Dreaming of your touch
I came to love so much
Its springly frozen flowers
That warm your love for me
For winter can't last long
I tell you that I love you
But still you do not hear
And in my dreams I find you
But like mist you disappear
In the gloom of my room
Forgotten frozen flowers
Like flying in the cold
In winter's frost
I tell you that I love you
But still you do not hear
And in my dreams I find you
But like mist you disappear
When doin' it all late at night
I feel a thousand faces
All lookin' at me pale and white
From most peculiar places
They keep tellin' me that my life
Tell me that my life could be better
If all I want is love
My hands are holding traffic jams
That's full of crazy ladies
All trying to get home at the same time
To feed full fats of babies
And all they want is life
All they want is life to get better
Cause they like them going for love
Yes I'm going for love - I'm taking arms
Stand, know what you can do
With all the running times you've given me
I don't wanna stay, going where I'm feeling even sure
it's taking me
Why, you can see there's been a definite change in my
eyes
Love, where are you, I'm needing you to keep me
satisfied
So here am I, here am I
I never did ask what I might have been
When I could see the faces
I could have stayed home and got stuck right in
Or gone a million places
But then I wanted life
All I wanted was life to get better
So I could feel your love
So I could say to you
Know what you can do with everything
Loving' all the same, be a pain
And still be what you need if you wanted to
Life it's through our love it's making all the change
in my eyes
Love need no shove to keep the life I lead so
satisfying
Up on a hill top, far from the city
Overlooking a stream
I heard a sound, it made me look round
I looked back where I had just been
There just behind a ledge
There was a man he leapt to and fro
Clipping away at a hedge
Suddenly I heard a ringing singing
But he was nowhere to be seen
Pulling my trousers up to my knees
I waded across the stream
Back to the place where I could hear sounds
And where the old man once had been
There just behind a ledge
I looked about, I couldn't make out
Where he had been clipping the hedge
I could not hear what he was singing
I fell from the right side into the dark
I did time with the Bullet Boys and I thought that really
smart
Then you came to me with that smile on your face
Light's in your eyes and no sense of disgrace
Heartbreaker, I felt for you so
Soul taker, now everybody knows
Nobody knew it quite as well
While with you was a heartache, without you is a hell
If I thought of anyone, I thought of myself
I stood crying with my fingers high, I didn't need nobody
else
Then you took me down with a flash and a grin
Showed me what it's all about and flew me back on in
You can feel cold when you're getting old, you can feel
tall when you're small
Would you think twice when a summer night's gonna run for
you to call
If it hits you like a thunderbolt right between the eyes
Song By KISHORE KUMAR
ham to hain raahi dil ke pahunchenge rukate-chalate
manzil hai kisako pyaari ho
are ham to man ke raaja raaja ki chali savaari -2
ho suno zara ham to hain raahi ...
ham do alabele hain saari duniya se jhele hain
apane to sapane laakhon kahane ko akele hain
are sabaka bojha lei ke chalti hai apni laari
are ho suno zara ham to hain raahi ...
jab tak chalte jaaye sabka dil ho apnaaye
jab roye koi duja naina apne chhalak aaye
pyaare kaam aaegi sun taaza baat hamaari
are ho suno zara ham to hain raahi ...
hare hare shankar jay shiv shankar bhushan vallabh jay maheshvar
pandit mulla daanten par ham sabka dukh baante
saare hain apne pyaare bolo kiska gala kaate
raamu ya ramjaani apni to sabse yaari
Knees on legs, toes on feet
Hair on chest, itchy vest
Woolly pants, nylon socks
Leather boots smash down the grass
Oh, grandma's lawn has just been mown
Ten feet tall, overgrown with weeds
Cold blue light, warm red light
Blue-green grass, jangling glass
These things I bought, Comisio sauce
Lima rice, water cress and Misco soup
So spare a thought for Albert Gott
Coloured lights, see-through tights
Moist-wet lips, heavy hips
Silvery sheets, crumbling thoughts
Parting legs, curried eggs
The meal we had was very bad
Too much Yin and not enough Yang
Lost my plec, bloody heck
Who's got my plec, break his neck
The rent's due, feeling blue
Got no bread, so in the street
We all will meet with nothing to do
No place to eat, nowhere to glue dolly friends
To my surprise, in a teardrop reflected
A scene there is you
Surrounded by vast carpet of bell-blue
Standing on a golf course
Dressed in P.V.C.
I chanced upon a Golf Girl
Selling cups of tea
She asked me did I want one
Asked me with a grin
For three pence you can buy one
Full right to the brim
So of course I had to have one
In fact I ordered three
So I could watch the Golf Girl
Could see she fancied me
And later on the golf course
After drinking tea
It started raining golf balls
And she protected me
Her name was Pat
And we sat under a tree
She kissed me
We go for walks
In fine weather
All together
On the golf course
My daddy played a blue guitar
And dances roses Africa
So so Picasso
Cowboy cap, they slowly come
Fucked all those movie stars
So so Picasso
We're walking down the Golden Mile
Honky-ponky Spanish style
Where is Picasso ?
e says he's the only man around
But wait till you look into his eyes
Chanson trouvée, chanson trouvée
S'il le pouvait, s'il le pouvait
He'd have love
He says he's the only man who cares
But that's just because he's scared
Crocodiles and gigolos
And quietsome quasimodo
So so Picasso
I like the joy and loneliness
And sex and sex and sex and sex uh
So so Picasso
We're walking down the Golden Mile
Honky-ponky Spanish style
Where is Picasso ?
This is the only song around
Sounds like a fountain on the ground
He says he's the only man around
But wait till you look into his eyes
He says he's the only man who cares
I went out at night, taking the sights
Fell all in love with a lady
She's got ill repute, and an over-size foot
Bad breath and drives a Mercedes
But oh, she had such style
Looks that could kill you stone dead
Though I tried not to stare at the parts that were bare
She said:
"Would you like to touch?", I said, "Very much"
"Then why don't we go somewhere warmer?
It's cold in the street, and it's hurting my feet
Come with me down to the corner"
Ooh, I could not tell you the thoughts that came into
my head
When she had the gall took money and all, and said:
"Give me more, make me feel as though I was dying"
"Give me more, give me so much that I'm crying"
"Give me more, make me feel so much better"
"Give me more", so I tried not to upset her
It's not quietened the fact of the funds that I lacked
At the shop where I bought the equipment
But the shape of the suit and the size of her boots
Gave an impending sense of achievement
But oh, to my surprise, she tied herself onto the bed
And then with her toes, in an indecent pose, she said:
"Give me more, make me feel as though I was dying"
"Give me more, give me so much that I'm crying"
"Give me more, make me feel so much better"
Sometimes, I'm thinking
Whatever did I do?
Nights are always chilly
In these days of youth
Streets outside are empty
No-one can be seen
Wisdom points a finger
My friend Ferdinand will, if he can
Cross that bridge to a little girl's skirt
Hands on which he's a terrible flirt
Says it's good, tells me that I should
Copy him as much as I can
Ride into a dock with only one hand
"I; know you gotta be kiddin' me
No man could ever do that and get away"
My, my, my, my, Ferdinand
Oh, you're telling lies again, Ferdinand
Copin' lay one day
Said to me 'Boy, hey!
Did you hear what is coming from there?'
She was pointing at Ferdinand's hand
In walks Ferdinand's room
Made she cries and beating her chest
I know I got what it takes, but boy!
You really got the rest
"Oh;, no, you gotta be kiddin' me!
No more, it's just what I need to fade away"
My, my, my, my, Ferdinand
------- boy, feeling low, tryin' to find me a lady
I had no mind, where to go, just a feelin' maybe
I'd be reelin' helped by the ceiling
Out of my mind forever
Gotta be right boy, stay out of fight boy
Lay it on by, get a flyer
Cause I'm feelin' alright
Yes I'm feeling' alright
And I'm gonna come through just searching for you
If it's keepin' me straight up ahead
Well I'm feelin' alright
Yes I'm feeling' alright
I ain't gonna take note and tell you all so
That I'm dead
As for the rest, I was neon dressed
Tryin' to explain how they found me
The deep black eyes were no surprise
But all the dogs were beyond me
This is appalling, I was a-calling
How could you really believe that of me
You'll be all right boy, stay here all night boy
Then in the morning we'll totally see
And I'm feelin' alright
Are you feeling' alright?
Well it's what they all say when they're gonna say
So don't keep on banging your head
Well I'm feelin' alright
Yes I'm feeling' alright
And I'm gonna come through, and I'll prove it to you
What I say
Cause I'm feelin' alright
Yes I'm feeling' alright
And I'm gonna come through just searching for you
If it's keepin' me straight up ahead
Yes I'm feelin' alright
Yes I'm feeling' alright
I ain't gonna take note and tell you all so
Don't worry about me
I've got all that I need
And I'm singing my song to the sky
You know how it feels
With the breeze of the sun in your eyes
Not minding that time's passing by
I've got all and more
My smile, just as before
Is all that I carry with me
I talk to myself
I need nobody else
It's not very clear to me
Why we continue
I happened along just to see
If there's anything new
And I don't want to be the one to argue
If there's a part to play
I'll play it my way
And if you don't like what I say
My voice will just die away
I don't want to be the one to argue
Talking about chiefs and indians
And you really must agree
You've got to be a chief for one day
If you're an Indian for three
Talkin' bout dealin' with business
And lazy lethargy
I'll tell you a game you must play
And the name's diplomacy
Talkin' about making a fool of you
While you're makin' a fool of me
You've got no time to boogaloo
When you've got so many people to see
I'm talkin' about Chiefs and Indians
And lazy lethargy
You can take your false confidence
And stick it where nobody can see
It's not very clear to me
Why we continue
I happened along just to see
If there's anything new
Leaving all the days when I was right in your eyes
Through all these days of something better
Give it all you got, you've learned to try really try
Take it out of you more work on better
Don't let it grow, let it show
Let me know how you feel
Was ever a love in my life, it was you
I would hardly contrive to conceal
My surprise, didn't know when I would realize
Oh, oh I can't doubt with you, it's all right
Many times before I've turned my back on the days
Out of one of gold it turned to silver
So the time to choose had come when down in a haze
Given you and me a long forever
Don't let me down, don't you frown
You may drown in your tears
Was ever a time you won't mind
It was now, can you hear me, oh, can you hear?
Oh, all right, did say when I was passing by
Oh, only came by below recalling me
So can't you see
All the love you pay for you take forever?
Go slow, you could be
Something's always sometime what you ever
When it's going for me, I'm going to take what I like
When it's not I surely set for better
If I know I'm wrong I'm gonna make it all right
If it keeps you loving me forever
Don't let me down, don't you frown
You may drown in my fears
Was ever a time you won't mind
Night and stars above that shine so bright
The mystery of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sands so I may keep
The memory of our caravan
This is so exciting, you are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thrill to the magic charms of you
Beside me here beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert caravan
Night and stars above that shine so bright
The mystery of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sands so I may keep
The memory of our caravan
This is so exciting, you are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thrill to the magic charms of you
Beneath me here, beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert caravan
Within our desert caravan
Within our desert caravan
Caravan caravan

Sun, here's the sun
Let's go to the lake
We'll take you down
Just say the word
Rain, here's the rain
Slip and slide in vain
Mud between our toes
Saturations take you home
They came through the sun
They came through the rain
Through this rocky terrain
A caravan
Everyone take note
We've dug here before
Here is where I'll lie
When this night is done
It's time I guess
As we go marchin' on
Live for every day
As if it were the last
They came through the sun
They came through the rain
Through this rocky terrain
A caravan
Sun, here's the sun
Let's go to the lake
We'll take you down
Just say the word
Rain, here's the rain
Slip and slide in vain
Mud between our toes
Saturations take you home
They came through the sun
They came through the rain
Through this rocky terrain
Night and stars above that shine so bright
The mystery of their fading light
That shines upon our Caravan
Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sands so I may keep
The memory of our Caravan
This is so exciting, you are so inviting
Resting in my arms
Thrill to the magic, the magic of your charms
You beside me here beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert Caravan
This is so exciting, you are so inviting
Resting in my arms
Thrill to the magic, the magic of your charms
Night and stars above that shine so bright
The mystery of their fading light
That shines upon our Caravan
That shines upon our Caravan
Night and stars above that shine so bright
The myst'ry of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sand so I may keep
This mem'ry of our caravan
This is so exciting, you are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thrill to the magic charms
Of you beside me here, beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert caravan
Night, night, night, night and stars above that shine so bright
The myst'ry of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
Sleep upon my shoulders as we creep
Across the sand so I may keep
This mem'ry of our caravan
This is so exciting, you are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thrill to the magic charms
Of you beside me here, beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert caravan
You beside me here, beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Pour the petrol can, around this caravan,
and watch the flames take all you own.
There's a girl that understands
like the back of her two hands,
she's all you need to know.
Cause you search for years but you lose everything you find.
There's braille for the deaf and a signpost for the blind,
there's heaven for the cruel but the devil waits for the kind.
-Whistling-
And you follow the blackbird home, through the early winter snow.
Your footprints track you through the grass.
And you ache just to smell her clothes
and her cooking down on the stove
You see her face in everyone you pass.
Cause you search for years but you lose everything you find.
There's braille for the deaf and a signpost for the blind,
there's heaven for the cruel but the devil waits for the kind.
And you walk down to her window
press your face against the glass
only to find that she is happy in his arms.
-Whistling-
Cause you search for years but you lose everything you find.
There's braille for the deaf and a signpost for the blind,
Something is calling me
Behind my caravan
I can't see it's face but
I'm feeeling it's in the dark
It's moving in the shadows
I can see it's whispering
Keeps calling my name
And the streamline is shivering
The wind breaks words for my love
From the deserts far away
And then it speaks to my heart
Should i stay or fade away
I see your smile in the stars
Shining street light boulevards
The question is passing me by
Should I leave this caravan?
The moonlight is lost
I'll light up my candle light
The flash light, the street lights
To light up my sleepless nights
I follow the stars to the canyon streets boulevards
I leave for the highways
I will get you through the dark
The wind breaks words for my love
From the deserts far away
And then it speaks to my heart
Should I stay or fade away
I see your smile in the stars
Shining street light boulevards
The question is passing me by
Should I leave this caravan?
The wind breaks words for my love
(Deserts far away)
And then it speaks to my heart
(Stay or fade away)
I see your smile in the stars
(Street light boulevards)
The question is passing me by
Night and stars above that shine so bright
The mystery of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sand so I may keep
The memory of our caravan
This is so exciting
You are so inviting
Lying in my arms
As I thrill to the magic charms
Of you beside me here beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Inside our desert caravan!
Night and stars above that shine so bright
The mystery of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sand so I may keep
The memory of our caravan
This is so exciting
You are so inviting
Lying in my arms
As I thrill to the magic charms
Of you beside me here beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
A bunch of weary voices
I mistook for angels
Telling me what to do with my life
Leaving me no choices
Putting me through changes
Telling me what to do with my life
I'm sure I won't be back for more
I am in search of you
My caravan
I will bring my red beads
You will bring what you need
Riding through this journey
On this night
Time to free the gypsy
Time for you to see me
Riding through this journey
On this night
Time to free the gypsy
Time for you to see me
Riding from the darkness
To the light
I'm sure I won't be back for more
I am in search of you
My caravan
I'm sure I won't be back for more, no
I am in search of you
My caravan
Oh my life's begun
Oh my time has come
It's come
It's come
It's come
I can feel it come
I can see it grow
I found my caravan
I'm sure I won't be back for more
I am in search of you
My caravan
I'm sure I won't be back for more, no
I am in search of you
Yeah
Getting good
Get me up
Get me grooving
Get me grooving
Get me up
Come on!
Going up (?)
Don't like it
Don't make it
Hey come on!
Going up
You coming up!
You coming up now!
You know when you're going, you can't get back
You find yourself a reason
You know when you're going, you won't come back
It's no longer the life you're leading
Yeah
If I am (?) so sad
Get back (?)
Well my heart is filled with sorrow
And my mind is filled with pain
Don't know if I'll make tomorrow
Or if I'm gonna see her again
You know when you're going, you can't get back
(?) on the side of the road
How Long Will It Be Till I See You Again? (Caravan Hidden Track)
How long will it be 'til I see you again?
How long will it be 'til I see you again?
How long will it be 'til I see you again?
How long will it be 'til I see you again?
How long will it be 'til I see you again?
How long will it be 'til I see you again?
Night and stars above that shine so bright
The myst'ry of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sand so I may keep
The mem'ry of our caravan
This is so exciting
You are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thrill to the magic charms
Of you beside me here beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Driving down to Camber Sands
With all the windows down
All your pleasures flourish
As they hit the ground
One of your loves was a caring, sharing person
They had a lot of love to give
But you don't really want to share no more
And they don't seem to really care
About the young idea
Caravan, caravan
You could tow the nicest man
Caravan, caravan
In your green and pleasant land
Don't you know she still loves to play The Jam?
Entertaining Mister Sailing
For the seventh time
Summer isn't easy
When it's only ten by nine
Oh, but they don't seem
To really care about the young idea
Caravan, caravan
You could tow the nicest man
Caravan, caravan
In your green and pleasant land
Don't you know she still loves to play The Jam?
Caravan, caravan
You could tow the nicest man
In your new caravan
You just love to play The Jam
Caravan, caravan, caravan, caravan
Parce que j'en ai les larmes aux yeux
que nos mains ne tiennent plus ensemble
que moi aussi je tremble un peu
parce que je n'vais plus attendre
Est-ce qu'on va reprendre la route
est-ce que nous sommes proches de la nuit
est-ce que ce monde a le vertige
est-ce qu'on sera un jour punis
Est-ce que je rampe comme un enfant
parce-que je n'ai plus de chemise
et c'est le bon Dieu qui nous prend
et c'est le bon Dieu qui nous brise
Parce que rien ne peut arriver
puisqu'il faut qu'il y ait une justice
je suis né dans cette caravane
mais nous partons, allez viens
Parce que ma peau est la seule que j'ai
que bientôt mes os seront dans le vent
je suis né dans cette caravane
Travel hurts
I don't want to start
to make this trip
across my heart
I would just stay here
if You weren't living in my ear
whispering little cues
aiming me into You
You say
(refrain)
Mirages rule this land
so don't stop the caravan
when nymphs and pixies tug your hand
don't stop the caravan
when treasures rise out of the sand
don't stop the caravan
when tired voices make demands
don't stop the caravan
Wake me when
this desert tries
to conjure sights
that trick my eyes
Show me where to put my ear
so other voices disappear
grow in me until I'm in You
You say
(refrain)
I don't want to start
and make this trip across my heart
but every lifetime I have to start
to make this pilgrimage across my heart
Mirages rule this land
nymphs and pixies tug your hand
treasures rise out of the sound
tired voices make demands
