'Cause I'm leavin' in the morning And I must see you again We'll have one more night together 'Til the morning brings my train. And I must go, oh, no, no, no! Oh, no, no, no! And I don't know if I'm ever coming home. Take the last train to Clarksville. I'll be waiting at the station. We'll have time for coffee flavored kisses And a bit of conversation. Oh... Oh, no, no, no! Oh, no, no, no! Take the last train to Clarksville, Now I must hang up the phone. I can't hear you in this noisy Railroad station all alone. I'm feelin' low. Oh, no, no, no!

Forget that girl, She'll only make you sad someday. Forget that girl, She'll never make you happy. Stay away from her, my friend, Stay away from her. Forget that girl, She'll only bring you down again. Forget that girl, She'll only make you lonely. Stay away from her, my friend, Stay away from her. There was a time when she could really love you When she was thinking only of you But now she's thrown herself above you And there's nothing you can do. Forget that girl, Even tho you find it's hard. Forget that girl, Even though you love her. She's in love with him, my friend, She's in love with him. Oh yeah, she's in love with him....... |

She's a wonderful lady and she's mine, all mine/ and there doesn't seem a way that she won't come and lose my mind./It's too easy hummin' songs to a girl in yellow dress/it's been a long time since the party and the room is in a mess/
The four kings of EMI are sitting stately on the floor/there are birds out on the sidewalk and a valet at the door/he reminds me of a penguin, with few and plastered hair/there's talcum powder on the letter, and the birthday boy is there/ Why don't you cut your hair?!/Why don't you live up there?!/Why don't you do what I do, see what I feel when I care?!/ Now they've darkened all the windows and the seats in naughahyde/I've been waiting for an hour, I can't find a place to hide/the being known as wonder girl is speaking I believe/it's not easy trying to tell her that I shortly have to leave/ Why don't you be like me?!/Why don't you stop and see?!/Why don't you hate who I hate, kill who I kill to be free?!/ Why don't you cut your hair?!/Why don't you live up there?!/Why don't you do what I do, see what I feel when I care?!/ Why don't you be like me?!/Why don't you stop and see?!/Why don't you hate who I hate, kill who I kill to be free?!/ Why don't you cut your hair?!/Why don't you live up there?!/Why don't you do what I do, see what I feel when I care?! |

The local rock group down the street
Is trying hard to learn their song, They serenade the weekend squire Who just came out to mow his lawn. Another pleasant valley Sunday, Charcoal burning everywhere, Rows of houses that are all the same, And no one seems to care. See Mrs. Gray, she's proud today Because her roses are in bloom, And Mr. Green, he's so serene, He's got a TV in every room. Another pleasant valley Sunday, Here in Status Symbol Land, Mothers complain about how hard life is, And the kids just don't understand. Creature comfort goals, they only numb my soul, And make it hard for me to see. Ahhh...thoughts all seem to stray to places far away, I need a change of scenery. Ta ta ta ta, ta ta ta ta... Ta ta ta ta, ta ta ta ta... Another pleasant valley Sunday, Charcoal burning everywhere. Another pleasant valley Sunday, Here in Status Symbol Land. Another pleasant valley Sunday, (A pleasant valley Sunday) Another pleasant valley Sunday, (A pleasant valley Sunday) |

Love is understanding,
Don't you know that this is true. Love is understanding, It's in everything we do. In this generation, In this lovin' time, In this generation, We will make the world shine. We were born to love one another This is something we all need. We were born to love one another We must be what we're goin' to be And what we have to be is free.

Darkened rolling figures move through
Prisms of no color Hand in hand, they walk the night But never know each other Passioned pastel neon lights Light up the jeweled traveller Who, lost in scenes of smoke filled dreams Find questions, but no answers Startled eyes that sometimes see Phantasmagoria splendor Pirouette down palsied paths With pennies for the vendor Salvation?s yours for just the time It takes to pay the dancer And once again such anxious men Find questions, but no answers The night has gone And taken it?s infractions While saddened eyes Hope there will be a next one Sahara signs look down upon A world that glitters glibly And mountain sides put arms around The unsuspecting city Second hands that minds have slowed Are moving even faster Toward bringing down someone who's found The questions, but no answers |

Girl, don't you know every time I see you smiling,
It hurts so bad, cause when I see you, I start crying, I've tried everything to stop, but there's no denying, That falling in love with you, girl, is just like dying. Oh, don't walk away, How, how can I make you stay? Don't turn away, I can still hear you saying those words that never were true, Just spoken to help nobody but you, Words with lies inside, But, small enough to hide till your playing was through. Girl, don't you know we could work it out with talking? You won't look around or slow down your walking, I've given you everything with kiss to seal it, You had to get your kicks out of trying to steal it. Now, I'm standing here, Strange, strange voices in my ears, I feel the tears, But, all I can hear are those words that never were true, Just spoken to help nobody but you, Words with lies inside, But, small enough to hide till your playing was through, ahh. Now, I'm standing here, Strange, strange voices in my ears, I feel the tears, But, all I can hear are those words that never were true, Just spoken to help nobody but you, Words with lies inside, But, small enough to hide till your playing was through.

Some people always complain that their life is too short so they hurry it
along Their worries drive them insane but they still go along for the ride As for me I have all the time in the world I was born A someday man I'm a maybe child I was born A someday man I was always wild Tomorrow's a new day, baby Anything can happen Anything can happen at all Some folks are working for reasons and waiting for answers they're never gonna find They keep on searching for pleasures and looking for what they can't see But for me Life can be a sweet holiday I was born A someday man I'm a maybe child I was born A someday man I was always wild Tomorrow's a new day, baby Anything can happen Anything can happen at all REPEAT AND FADE I was born A someday man I'm a maybe child I was born A someday man I was always wild |

My, my the clock in the sky is pounding away
There's so much to say A face, a voice, an overdub has no choice And it cannot rejoice Wanting to be, to hear and to see Crying to the sky But the porpoise is laughing good-bye, good-bye good-bye, good-bye, good-bye Clicks, clacks Riding the backs of giraffes for laughs is alright for a while The ego sings of castles and kings and things That go with a life of style Wanting to feel, to know what is real Living is a lie But the porpoise is waiting good-bye, good-bye Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye |

When your dreams have died around you, she'll be there
When you need a hand to guide you, she'll be there And when you feel rejected 'Cause life is not what you expected I know that, she'll be there If I hadn't lied and cheated, she'd be here If she wasn't so mistreated, she'd be here And if you don't abuse her I know you'll never ever loose her And she will always be there I was too late to discover How much I really did love her But now her place is with you And I must face it, it's over we're through She'll be there... She'll be there... And if you don't abuse her I know you'll never ever loose her And she will always be there She'll be there... She'll be there... She'll be there... |

Come on in,
You sure look good to me. Come on in, I've learned how lonely I can be. I guess we'll never know just what went wrong You know it's been a whole year has passed us by and gone. But we're back together now where we belong So, baby, come on in. Come on in, I heard your footstep on the stair. Come on in, I'd know it anywhere. Your old chair in the corner is justa sitting there waiting. It's been a long time anticipating. What a long time it's been. So, baby, come on in. Over and over I've told myself I said, "Son, you've got to lose these blues. Get ready for the day when she'll walk in the door." So I dusted off your housecoat and I polished up your shoes. Come on in, You know your welcome here. Aw, Come on in, It's been a long, long year. Now I know why I waited around I wouldn't run around town, let them put me down. I knew that if I waited I would win. So, baby, come on in. Come on in, Come on in, Aw, come in. |
