Sing with me!

Apollo was atonished

Dionysus thought me mad

But they heard my story further

And they wondered, and were sad

 

Looking down from Olympus

On a world of doubt and fear

Its surface splintered

Into sorry hemispheres

Yeah, oh yeah!

Ooh, said I, I'm comin' out to get you

Ooh, sit down, I'm comin' out to find you

Ooh, yeah

Ooh yeah

Findin' my way!

 

I've been gone so long

I've lost count of the years

Well, I sang some sad songs

Oh yes, and cried some bad tears

 

Look out! I'm comin', whoa, whoa

Look out! I'm comin', whoa, yeah

 

I'm runnin', finding my way back home

Oh yeah!

 

Yeah, oh, yeah!

Ooh, said I, I'm comin' back to look for you

Ooh, sit down, I'm goin' by the back door

Ooh, yeah

Ooh, yeah

Findin' my way!

 

You've done me no right

But you've done me some wrong

Left me lonely each night

While I sing my sad song

 

Look out! I'm comin', whoa, whoa

Look out! I'm comin', whoa, yeah

 

I'm runnin', findin' my way back home

 

I'm comin'

Ooh, babe, I said I'm runnin'

Whoa, babe, I said I'm comin' to get you, mama

Said I'm runnin'

 

Ooh, babe, I said I'm comin' for you, babe. I said I'm runnin'

Ooh, yes, babe, I said I'm comin' to get you, babe

I said I'm comin'

Ooh, yeah

 

I'm findin', I'm findin' my way back home

Well, I've had it for now, livin' on the road

Ooh, yeah

Ooh, yeah

 

Findin' my way!

Just listened to On An Island:

 

Shameless sea

Aimlessly so blue

Midnight-moon shines for you

 

"Still, marooned

Silence drifting through

Nowhere to choose

Just blue...

 

Ceaselessly

Star-crossed you and me

Save our souls

We'll be forever blue

 

Waves roll

Lift us in blue

Drift us

Seep right through

And colour us blue

 

Wait for me

Shamelss you, the sea

Soon, the Blue

So soon..."

Reach out, hands in the air,

Don't care just what they're saying

Hold out, just keep on hoping against hope

That it's gonna get better

Don't worry, there's no hurry for you, for me,

Everything's gonna come around

Shout out, someone will listen to you, to me,

Someone's gonna see

 

He calls me over and, calls me brother and I know

always fighting and moonlighting and, well it never ends

in the city, if you're all alone

there's a sister and she's standing next to her man

in the darkness you feel the sharpness of steel

and it's always there, in the city, and you're all alone

 

So reach out, hands in the air,

Don't care just what they're saying

Hold out, just keep on hoping against hope

That it's gonna get better

Don't worry, there's not hurry for you, for me,

Everything's gonna come around

Shout out, someone will listen to you, to me,

Someone's gonna see...

 

If it's gonna get better, it starts with a feeling

If it's gonna get better, it's gonna take time

If it's gonna get better, we gotta start now

cos I know, everybody can feel it

and I know, everybody will see it

cos it shows, and that shows I'm not dreaming

cos you know, and I know, it's time for a change

Now, this has been stuck in my head for days!!!! It's not even one of my favorite Raspberries...

 

Don't want to drive your love away from me

Don't want to waste your time

You're here and there and far away from me

I'm so alone, it's just a crime

 

If you could lie here by my side at night

If you could chase away my blues

You'd understand just how it feels at night

To have to stand inside my shoes

 

Don't want to say goodbye

Don't want to let you see me cry

Still, I don't want you to live a lie

I'm gonna try a little harder

I'm gonna try a little harder

I'm gonna try a little harder

And maybe you'll love me

 

Don't want to drive your love away from me

Don't want to waste your time

You're here and there and far away from me

I'm so alone, it's just a crime

 

Everyone crying yet??

oh, hell, since I'm sappy already...

 

remember angel.gif

 

I can remember summer skies and your eyes

And in September when I first realized

That I needed you to be the other half of me

And my love long locked inside itself

Had finally been set free

 

I can remember autumn skies and goodbyes

Hurting so badly that I thought I would die

But the more things seem to change

The more they stay the same

And the lonely ones get lonelier

With every passing day

 

From the day we met I knew that

I should never let you get a hold on me

'Cause now you see I can't forget you

Oh I, I can remember mid summer skies

Love in your eyes

 

In the spring the sun will shine

And make the ice surrender

But it will not warm my heart

As long as I remember

Oh I, I can remember mid summer skies

Love in your eyes

 

And I, I will remember the times I've cried

Since you said goodbye. I nearly died when you said

"I, I can't let you down any more

So I guess this is goodbye"

What, what did you do it for?

Every time I think of you and him together

I break down and cry

 

Oh I, I can remember the tears I've cried

Since you said "Goodbye"

I, I can remember the tears I've cried

Since you said "Goodbye"

I'll never hurt you

I'll never bring you down

I won't desert you

I'll always be around

 

You don't know how much I hate you

You don't know how much I hate you

 

I'll never kill you

Or make you feel afraid

I'll never beat you

Or make you feel ashamed

 

You don't know how much I hate you

You don't know how much I hate you

Jeremiah was a bullfrog

Was a good friend of mine

I never understood a single word he said

But I helped him a-drink his wine

And he always had some mighty fine wine

Singin'...

 

Joy to the world

All the boys and girls now

Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea

Joy to you and me

 

If I were the king of the world

Tell you what I'd do

I'd throw away the cars and the bars and the war

Make sweet love to you

Sing it now...

 

Joy to the world

All the boys and girls

Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea

Joy to you and me

You know I love the ladies

Love to have my fun

I'm a high life flyer and a rainbow rider

I'm a straight shootin' son-of-a-gun

I said a straight shootin' son-of-a-gun

 

Joy to the world

All the boys and girls

Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea

Joy to you and me

 

Joy to the world

All the boys and girls

Joy to the world

Joy to you and me

I'm limited:

Just look at me - I'm limited

And just look at you -

You can do all I couldn't do, Glinda

So now it's up to you

For both of us

 

Now it's up to you:

 

 

I've heard it said

That people come into our lives for a reason

Bringing something we must learn

And we are led

To those who help us most to grow

If we let them

And we help them in return

Well, I don't know if I believe that's true

But I know I'm who I am today

Because I knew you:

 

Like a comet pulled from orbit

As it passes a sun

Like a stream that meets a boulder

Halfway through the wood

Who can say if I've been changed for the better?

But because I knew you

I have been changed for good

 

 

It well may be

That we will never meet again

In this lifetime

So let me say before we part

So much of me

Is made of what I learned from you

You'll be with me

Like a handprint on my heart

And now whatever way our stories end

I know you have re-written mine

By being my friend:

Like a ship blown from its mooring

By a wind off the sea

Like a seed dropped by a skybird

In a distant wood

Who can say if I've been changed for the better?

But because I knew you:

 

 

Because I knew you:

 

I have been changed for good

 

And just to clear the air

I ask forgiveness

For the things I've done you blame me for

 

 

But then, I guess we know

There's blame to share

 

And none of it seems to matter anymore

 

 

Like a comet pulled

From orbit as it

Passes a sun,

Like a ship blown

From it's mooring

By a wind off the sea

Like a stream that meets a boulder,

Half-way through the wood

like a seed dropped by a

Skybird in a distant wood

 

 

Who can say if I've been changed for the better?

I do believe I have been changed for the better

 

 

And because I knew you:

 

Because I knew you:

 

 

Because I knew you:

I have been changed for good.

"I didn't know the girl, but I knew her family

All their lives were shattered in a nightmare of brutality

They try to carry on, try to bear the agony

Try to hold some faith in the goodness of humanity"

 

 

Over and over and over and over.........

There once was a note, pure and easy

Playing so free, like a breath rippling by

The note is eternal, I hear it, it sees me

Forever we blend and forever we die

 

I listened and I heard music in a word

And words when you played your guitar

The noise that I was hearing was a million people cheering

And a child flew past me riding in a star

 

As people assemble

Civilization is trying to find a new way to die

But killing is really merely scene changing

All men are bored with other men's lies

 

I listened and I heard music in a word

And words when you played your guitar

The noise that I was hearing was a million people cheering

And a child flew past me riding in a star

 

Gas on a hillside, oil in the teacup

Watch all the chords of life lose their joy

Distortion becomes somehow pure in its wildness

The note that began all can also destroy

 

We all know success when we all find our own dreams

And our love is enough to knock down any wall

And the future's been seen as men try to realize

The simple secret of the note in us all

 

I listened and I heard music in a word

And words when you played your guitar

The noise that I was hearing was a million people cheering

And a child flew past me riding in a star

 

There once was a note, pure and easy

Playing so free, like a breath rippling by

There once was a note, listen

There once was a note, listen

(fade)

Why are we here? Because we're here, roll the bones. Roll the bones. Why does it happen? Because it happens, roll the bones. Roll the bones.

Oh let the sun beat down upon my face

With stars to fill my dream.

I am a traveler of both time and space

To be where I have been.

 

To sit with elders of a gentle race

This world has seldom seen.

They talk of days for which they sit and wait

When all will be revealed.

 

Talk an' song from tongues of lilting grace

Whose sounds caress my ear.

But not a word I heard could I relate

The story was quite clear.

Whoa-ohh-oh

Whoa-ohhh-oh-oh

 

Ooooh

Oh baby, I've been flyin'

Nooo-yeah

Oh mama there

Ain't no denyin'

 

Oh!

Ooooh-yes

I've been flyin'

Ma-ma-ma

Ain't no denyin'

No denyin'-uh

 

Oh!

All I see turns to brown

As the sun burns the ground.

And my eyes fill with sand

As I scan this wasted land.

Tryin' to find

Tryin' to find

Where I've been.

 

Oh pilot of the storm who leaves no trace

Like thoughts inside a dream

Who hid the path that led me to that place

Of yellow desert screen.

 

My shangri-la beneath the summer moon

I will return again.

Sure as the dust that floats high in June

When movin' through Kashmir.

 

Oh father of the four winds, fill my sails

'Cross the sea of years (?)

With no provision but an open face

Along the straits of fear. (?)

 

Whoa-oh ah-oh

Whoa-ohhh oh

 

Ohhh

 

Whoa!

When I'm on,

When I'm on my way yeah!

When I see,

When I see the way

You stayyyyy-yeah!

 

Ooh-ooh yeah-yeah

Ooh-ooh yeah-yeah

When I'm downnn-yeah

 

Ooh-ooh yeah-yeah

Ooh-ooh yeah-yeah

When I'm down, so down

 

Ooh my baby

Oooh my baby let me take you there

 

Oh-oh

Come on, come on

Oh!

Let me take you there

Let me take you there

 

Ooh yeah-yeah

Ooh yeah-yeah...

Forgot what a great song this was!

 

it's easier not to be wise

and measure these things by your brains

I sank into Eden with you

alone in the church by and by

I'll read to you here, save your eyes

you'll need them, your boat is at sea

your anchor is up, you've been swept away

and the greatest of teachers won't hesitate

to leave you there, by yourself, chained to fate

 

I alone love you

I alone tempt you

I alone love you

fear is not the end of this!

 

it's easier not to be great

and measure these things by your eyes

we long to be here by his resolve

alone in the church by and by

to cradle the baby in space

and leave you there by yourself chained to fate

 

oh, now, we took it back too far,

only love can save us now,

all these riddles that you burn

all come runnin' back to you,

all these rhythms that you hide

only love can save us now,

all these riddles that you burn yeah, yeah, yeah

 

Thanks Lerxster for reminding me hug2.gif

there should be something coming back your way....soon! biggrin.gif

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain

I like watchin' the puddles gather rain

And all I can do is just pour some tea for two

and speak my point of view

But it's not sane, It's not sane

 

I just want some one to say to me

I'll always be there when you wake

Ya know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today

So stay with me and I'll have it made

 

And I don't understand why I sleep all day

And I start to complain that there's no rain

And all I can do is read a book to stay awake

And it rips my life away, but it's a great escape

escape...escape...escape...

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain

ya don't like my point of view

ya think I'm insane

Its not sane...it's not sane.
