Everybody's high on consolation
Everybody's trying to tell me what is right for me, yeah My daddy tried to bore me with a sermon But it's plain to see that they can't comfort me Sorry Charlie for the imposition I think I've got it, I got the strength to carry on, yeah I need a drink and a quick decision Now it's up to me, ooh what will be? Chorus: She's Gone She's Gone Oh why? Oh why? I better learn how to face it She's Gone She's Gone Oh why? Oh why? I'd pay the devil to replace her She's Gone She's Gone Oh why? Oh why? What went wrong? Get up in the morning, look in the mirror One less toothbrush hanging in the stand My face ain't looking any younger Now I can see love's taken a toll on me Chorus Think I'll spend eternity in the city Let the carbon and monoxide choke my thoughts away And pretty bodies help dissolve the memories But they can never be what she once was to me Chorus |

Funny how the times can change as fast as we can run
Sad to say we had to part when the fun had just begun Now he night is over And I'm waiting for the day we can be together And we can say Goodnight and Goodmorning From the Dark to the Dawning I can't believe that I'm in love and you're the one I can hear a song of love and our song has just begun When the music's over and we finally walk away We can walk together And we can say Goodnight and Goodmorning From the Dark to the Dawning |

Why don't you write me
Call me on the phone Send Western Union You can find me home I say I'm sorry I said I'm sorry You know I bled you Led you on a lie You say I fooled you Who's the fool tonight I say I'm sorry I said I'm sorry High Love in motion Walking on the ocean of your sorrow Round turned the tables Lost I am a man with no tomorrow Lopsided lovin' got me in the end Looks like I'm done in Now there's no pretending Ooh I'm sorry I said I'm sorry |

There's a thunder storm 'a brewin'
And the day is turning gray There ain't much to say about the weather The shower stall is leakin' And the ceiling's fallin' in And I'm getting twenty bills to every letter I've got to move myself out to the country I'm lookin' out for any place at all I'm gonna spend another Fall In Philadelphia A roving band of youths beat up on Johnny Everybody's gettin' richer sellin' that dope Say, the stolen bikes are gathering by the thousands Along with seven million people without a hope I guess I have to face the fact as real I think I feel my back up against the wall I'm gonna spend another Fall In Philadelphia |

I hear you call me, Waterwheel
Spin round, round in a circle Gracing my child dreams on fantasy hill Spin round, round in a circle Flash! paddles sending a spray to the air Lately, my thoughts are still- With you there as you spin round, Round in a boyhood daydream Spin round My thoughts are drifting to a quieter time (Spin round, round in a circle) Green covered slippery water-rocks I used to climb (Spin round, round in a circle) Father and child walking down by the canyon Lately, my thoughts are still- With them there as they spin round, Round in a boyhood daydream Spin round |

Lilly, laughing lady,
does your smile disguise the tears inside? Lilly, lonely lady, only silhouette your happy side. You give yourself to men who take your love. Then smile and watch them walk away... Are you tired of giving Lilly? Are you really happy? Lilly, laughing lady, are you satisfied to live a lie? Lilly, lonely lady, is it in the stars for you to try? Do you fulfill yourself with lies and dreams? You seem contented with your life? Does it only gild the lilly or does it make you happy? |

I went downtown to see milady
she stood me up and I stood there waiting but it'll be all right when The Morning Comes Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair I've got nowhere to go, so I can go anywhere and it'll be all right when the Morning Comes Just in passing, I'm not asking that you can be anyone but you When you come home try to come home alone it's so much better with two Now I'm out in the cold and I'm getting old standing here waiting on you but it'll be all right when the Morning Comes |

Were you ever so in love
you couldn't wait to get to sleep and dream about the one you wish was there beside you In the past few days I've grown to love your giggles on the phone and how we hug so nicely Chorus: And from the first time that I saw you has I known you better then I would've said those three old words And from the first time I saw you had I known you better then Now I'm gonna move away another town another crazy day ooh I want to stay and maybe hang around you Call it luck call it fate call it a shame that we have met so late and loved so lightly Chorus: And from the first time that I saw you had I known you better then I would've said those three old words And from the first time that I saw you had I known you better then |

Sara's off on a turnaround
flying gambling fools to the holy land, Las Vegas sometimes she's HERE and sometimes she can't be found, turnaround AND Sara's off, half hiding, far above the clouds, high she flies I know I've got to find her a place she can push her toes around in She needs a place where she can lounge and wear a gown in Sara turnaround turnaround Sara's off on a turnaround to Las Vegas, turnaround And any night she's here or half way 'round the world, oh I could cry AND So I know I've got to pray for delays and for days 'til she's besides me All alone in her room and her scattered clothes remind me Sara please Sara turnaround |

Can you see my past Can you find my future Should I take it slower 'til my life is over Oh Lady Rain... is it I'll be going down in pain? Chorus: Lady Rain, lay your sobbin' hair down on my shoulder Lady Rain, do your cloudy eyes see me much older? All the days I've lost hoping and pretending that my days would flow smooth and slow toward their ending Oh Lady Rain... is it I'll be going down in pain? |

He's the star of the stage, and he screams all night
'Cause he can't get to sleep at all And his favorite book, by the T.V. light, can't stop the matinee, He's played it over and over He Can't Stop The Music, or remember the ending to his song He played it much too long All those hard-earned words, that he's fought from his pen Have been forgotten in some empty hall And the wide-eyed looks, on those wiped-out faces Make some dreams in such places over and over He Can't Stop The Music, or remember the ending to his song He played it much too long Wouldn't believe your ears, if he told you what the papers use to say But that was in his hey-day Back in his prime he had the fans in line You should have seen him then, now look at him His hair is getting thin There's one last show before the glory ends There in the wings, waits his only friend, The record that he prayed to over and over He Can't Stop The Music, or remember the ending to his song He played it much too long Then we go like this, and we go like that (music) Then we go like this, and we go like that, Can't Stop The Music Then we go like this, and we go like that (music) Then we go like this and we go like that. |

Is it a star, or is it me
You say you believe in And the nights When my stage smiles not so wild, and ain't coming easy Can't you see it's me All broken down inside Can't you see it's me All broken down inside Can't you see it's me Honey, you've been dreaming Then they'll meet you on the streets, and say they've had a crush on you, for a year or two, maybe three And they say "Hi, how you doing", but is it really me, or you, you say you believe in Baby, you've been dreaming Can't you see it's me All broken down inside *Can't you see it's me All broken down inside Can't you see it's me All broken down inside Can't you see it's me *All broken down inside Baby, you've been dreaming You see it's me Is It A Star, or is it me You say you believe in And all of the nights When my stage smile lasts awhile, coming easy *Repeat |

In bed sittin' and reading by the T. V. light
Stay away from the window, thunder and lighting And the rain, the rain keeps fallin' down That's something that hasn't changed Yeah, there's something inside me, it's quiet when it rains At the end of the rainbow, there ain't no pot of gold And the light in the morning, hardly ever shows Ain't no easy living, everybody knows And it's all around us........ 70's Scenario She called me a prisoner, in a prison of the mass She said acceptance from the future, is freedom from the past and I laugh, and say "that's alright" Things really ain't that tough As long as I'm still able, to turn the T.V. off At the end of the rainbow, there ain't no pot of gold And the light in the morning, hardly ever shows Ain't no reason living, everybody knows And it's all around us........ 70's Scenario At the end of the rainbow, there ain't no pot of gold And the light in the morning, hardly ever shows Ain't no reason living, everybody knows And it's all around us........ 70's Scenario |
