Strange face, with your eyes
So pale and sincere. Underneath you know well You have nothing to fear. For the dreams that came to you when so young Told of a life Where spring is sprung. You would seem so frail In the cold of the night When the armies of emotion Go out to fight. But while the earth sinks to its grave You sail to the sky On the crest of a wave. So forget this cruel world Where I belong I'll just sit and wait And sing my song. And if one day you should see me in the crowd Lend a hand and lift me To your place in the cloud. |

Do you curse where you come from,
Do you swear in the night Will it mean much to you If I treat you right. Do you like what you're doing, Would you do it some more Or will you stop once and wonder What you're doing it for. Hey slow Jane, make sense Slow, slow, Jane, cross the fence. Do you feel like a remnant Of something that's past Do you find things are moving Just a little too fast. Do you hope to find new ways Of quenching your thirst, Do you hope to find new ways Of doing better than your worst. Hey slow Jane, let me prove Slow, slow Jane, we're on the move. Do it for you, Sure that you would do the same for me one day. So try to be true, Even if it's only in your hazey way. Can you tell if you're moving With no mirror to see, If you're just riding a new man Looks a little like me. Is it all so confusing, Is it hard to believe When the winter is coming Can you sign up and leave. Hey slow Jane, live your lie Slow, slow jane, fly on by. |

Don't you have a word to show what may be done
Have you never heard a way to find the sun Tell me all that you may know Show me what you have to show Won't you come and say If you know the way to blue? Have you seen the land living by the breeze Can you understand a light among the trees Tell me all that you may know Show me what you have to show Tell us all today If you know the way to blue? Look through time and find your rhyme Tell us what you find We will wait at your gate Hoping like the blind. Can you now recall all that you have known? Will you never fall When the light has flown? Tell me all that you may know Show me what you have to show Won't you come and say If you know the way to blue? |

Please beware of them that stare
They'll only smile to see you while Your time away And once you've seen what they have been To win the earth just won't seem worth Your night or your day Who'll hear what I say. Look around you find the ground Is not so far from where you are But not too wise For down below they never grow They're always tired and charms are hired From out of their eyes Never surprise. Take your time and you'll be fine And say a prayer for people there Who live on the floor And if you see what's meant to be Don't name the day or try to say It happened before. Don't be shy you learn to fly And see the sun when day is done If only you see Just what you are beneath a star That came to stay one rainy day In autumn for free Yes, be what you'll be. Please beware of them that stare They'll only smile to see you while Your time away And once you've seen what they have been To win the earth just won't seem worth Your night or your day Who'll hear what I say. Open up the broken cup Let goodly sin and sunshine in Yes that's today. And open wide the hymns you hide You find reknown while people frown At things that you say But say what you'll say About the farmers and the fun And the things behind the sun And the people round your head Who say everything's been said And the movement in your brain Sends you out into the rain. |

Betty came by on her way
Said she had a word to say About things today And fallen leaves Said she hadn't heard the news Hadn't had the time to choose A way to lose But she believes Going to see the river man Going to tell him all I can About the plan For lilac time If he tells me all he knows About the way his river flows And all night shows In summertime Betty said she prayed today For the sky to blow away Or maybe stay She wasn't sure For when she thought of summer rain Calling for her mind again She lost the pain And stayed for more Going to see the river man Going to tell him all I can About the ban On feeling free If he tells me all he knows About the way his river flows I don't suppose It's meant for me Oh, how they come and go Oh, how they come and go |

Never sing for my supper
I never help my neighbour Never do what is proper For my share of labour. I'm a poor boy And i'm a rover Count your coins and Throw them over my shoulder I may grow older Nobody knows How cold it grows And nobody sees How shaky my knees Nobody cares How steep my stairs And nobody smiles If i cross their stiles. Oh poor boy So sorry for himself Oh poor boy So worried for his health. You may say every day Where will he stay tonight. Never know what i came for Seems that i've forgotten Never ask what i came for Or how i was begotten. I'm a poor boy And i'm a ranger Things i say May seem stranger than sunday Changing to monday. Nobody knows How cold it flows And nobody feels The worn down heels Nobody's eyes Make the skies Nobody spreads Their aching heads. Oh poor boy So worried for his life Oh poor boy So keen to take a wife. He's a mess but he'll say yes If you just dress in white. Nobody knows How cold it blows And nobody sees How shaky my knees Nobody cares How steep my stairs And nobody smiles If you cross their stiles. Oh poor boy So sorry for himself Oh poor boy So worried for his health. You may say every day Where will he stay tonight. Oh poor boy So worried for his life Oh poor boy So keen to take a wife. Oh poor boy So sorry for himself Oh poor boy So worried for his health Oh poor boy. |

Summer was gone and the heat died down
And Autumn reached for her golden crown I looked behind as I heard a sigh But this was the time of no reply The sun went down and the crowd went home I was left by the roadside all alone I turned to speak as they went by But this was the time of no reply The time of no reply is calling me to stay There is no hello and no goodbye To leave there is no way The trees on the hill had nothing to say They would keep their dreams till another day So they stood and thought and wondered why For this was the time of no reply Time goes by from year to year And no one asks why I am standing here But I have my answer as I look to the sky This is the time of no reply The time of no reply is calling me to stay There's no hello and no goodbye To leave there is no way |

A day once dawned, and it was beautiful
A day once dawned from the ground Then the night she fell And the air was beautiful The night she fell all around. So look see the days The endless coloured ways And go play the game that you learnt From the morning. And now we rise And we are everywhere And now we rise from the ground And see she flies And she is everywhere See she flies all around So look see the sights The endless summer nights And go play the game that you learnt From the morning. |

I could have been a sailor, could have been a cook
A real live lover, could have been a book I could have been a signpost, could have been a clock As simple as a kettle, steady as a rock I could be Here and now I would be, I should be But how? I could have been One of these things first I could have been One of these things first. I could have been your pillar, could have been your door I could have stayed beside you, could have stayed for more Could have been your statue, could have been your friend A whole long lifetime could have been the end I could be yours so true I would be, I should be through and through I could have been One of these things first I could have been One of these things first. I could have been a whistle, could have been a flute A real live giver, could have been a boot I could have been a signpost, could have been a clock As simple as a kettle, steady as a rock. I could be even here I would be, I should be so near I could have been One of these things first I could have been One of these things first. |

I never felt magic crazy as this
I never saw moons knew the meaning of the sea I never held emotion in the palm of my hand Or felt sweet breezes in the top of a tree But now you're here Brighten my northern sky. I've been a long time that I'm waiting Been a long that I'm blown I've been a long time that I've wandered Through the people I have known Oh, if you would and you could Straighten my new mind's eye. Would you love me for my money Would you love me for my head Would you love me through the winter Would you love me 'til I'm dead Oh, if you would and you could Come blow your horn on high. I never felt magic crazy as this I never saw moons knew the meaning of the sea I never held emotion in the palm of my hand Or felt sweet breezes in the top of a tree But now you're here Brighten my northern sky. |

Which will you go for
Which will you love Which will you choose from From the stars above Which will you answer Which will you call Which will you take for For your one and all And tell me now Which will you love the best. Which do you dance for Which makes you shine Which will you choose now If you won't choose mine Which will you hope for Which can it be Which will you take now If you won't take me And tell now Which will you love the best. |

And what will happen in the morning when the world it gets
so crowded that you can't look out the window in the morning. And what will happen in the evening in the forest with the weasel with the teeth that bite so sharp when you're not looking in the evening. And all the friends that you once knew are left behind they kept you safe and so secure amongst the books and all the records of your lifetime. What will happen In the morning When the world it gets so crowded that you can't look out the window in the morning. Hey, take a little while to grow your brother's hair And now, take a little while to make your sister fair. And now that the family Is part of a chain Take off your eyeshade Start over again. Now take a little while to find your way in here Now take a little while to make your story clear. Now that you're lifting Your feet from the ground Weigh up your anchor And never look round. Let's sing a song For Hazey Jane She's back again in my mind. If songs were lines In a conversation The situation would be fine. |

Time has told me
You're a rare rare find A troubled cure For a troubled mind. And time has told me Not to ask for more Someday our ocean Will find its shore. So I`ll leave the ways that are making me be What I really don't want to be Leave the ways that are making me love What I really don't want to love. Time has told me You came with the dawn A soul with no footprint A rose with no thorn. Your tears they tell me There's really no way Of ending your troubles With things you can say. And time will tell you To stay by my side To keep on trying 'til there's no more to hide. So leave the ways that are making you be What you really don't want to be Leave the ways that are making you love What you really don't want to love. Time has told me You're a rare rare find A troubled cure For a troubled mind. And time has told me Not to ask for more For some day our ocean Will find its shore. |

A black eyed dog he called at my door
The black eyed dog he called for more A black eyed dog he knew my name A black eyed dog he knew my name A black eyed dog A black eyed dog. I'm growing old and I wanna go home I'm growiing old and I don't wanna know I'm growing old and I wanna go home. A black eyed dog he called at my door A black eyed dog he called for more. |

Fame is but a fruit tree
So very unsound. It can never flourish Till its stalk is in the ground. So men of fame Can never find a way Till time has flown Far from their dying day. Forgotten while you're here Remembered for a while A much updated ruin From a much outdated style. Life is but a memory Happened long ago. Theatre full of sadness For a long forgotten show. Seems so easy Just to let it go on by Till you stop and wonder Why you never wondered why. Safe in the womb Of an everlasting night You find the darkness can Give the brightest light. Safe in your place deep in the earth That's when they'll know what you were really worth. Forgotten while you're here Remembered for a while A much updated ruin From a much outdated style. Fame is but a fruit tree So very unsound. It can never flourish Till its stalk is in the ground. So men of fame Can never find a way Till time has flown Far from their dying day. Fruit tree, fruit tree No-one knows you but the rain and the air. Don't you worry They'll stand and stare when you're gone. Fruit tree, fruit tree Open your eyes to another year. They'll all know That you were here when you're gone. |
