I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me. Love was out to get me That's the way it seemed. Disappointment haunted all my dreams. Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer Not a trace of doubt in my mind. I'm in love, I'm a believer! I couldn't leave her if I tried. I thought love was more or less a given thing, Seems the more I gave the less I got. What's the use in tryin'? All you get is pain. When I needed sunshine I got rain. Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer Not a trace of doubt in my mind. I'm in love, I'm a believer! I couldn't leave her if I tried. |

I wanna be free,
Like the bluebirds flying by me, Like the waves out on the blue sea, If your love has to tie me, Don't try me, say good-bye. I wanna be free, Don't say you love me, say you like me But when I need you beside me, Stay close enough to guide me, Confide in me, whoa-oh-oh. I wanna hold your hand, Walk along the sand, Laughing in the sun, Always having fun. Doing all those things Without any strings to tie me down. I wanna be free, Like the warm September wind, babe, Say you'll always be my friend, babe, We can make it to the end, babe, Again, babe, I've gotta say... I wanna be free, I wanna be free, I wanna be free. |

I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone,
I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone. You're trying to make your mark in society, You're using all the tricks that you used on me, You're reading all them high-fashion magazines, The clothes you're wearing, girl, they're causing public scenes. I said, I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone, I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone. (No!) Not your steppin' stone, Not your steppin' stone, When I first met you, girl, you didn't have no shoes, But, now you're walking around like you're front page news, You've been awful careful 'bout the friends you choose, But, you won't find my name in your book of "Who's Who". I said, I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone, (No, girl, not me!) I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone. (No!) Not your steppin' stone, I'm not your steppin' stone, Not your steppin' stone, Not your steppin' stone, Not your steppin' stone, Not your steppin' stone, No, girl, I'm not your steppin' stone, Not your steppin' stone, Not your steppin' stone, Not your steppin' stone, |

(She!) She told me that she loved me,
And like a fool I believed her from the start (She!) She said she'd never hurt me, But then she turned around and broke my heart. Why am I standing here Missing her and wishing she were here? (Hey!) She only did me wrong (Hey!) I'm better off alone. (She!) She devoured all my sweet love, Took all I had and then she fed me dirt (She!) She laughed while I was crying It was such a joke to see the way it hurt. Why am I standing here Missing her and wishing she were here? (Hey!) She only did me wrong (Hey!) I'm better off alone. And now I know just why she keeps me hanging 'round, (Hanging 'round) She needs someone to walk on so her feet don't touch the ground (Don't touch the ground) But I love her! (Love her!) I need her! (Need her!) I want her! (Want her!) Yeah! (Yeah!) Yeah! (Yeah!) Yeah!-Yeah!-Yeah!-Yeah!-She! Why am I standing here Missing her and wishing she were here? (Hey!) She only did me wrong, now (Hey!) I'm better off alone. (She!) Why am I missing her? (She!) I should be kissing her! (She!) Why am I missing her? (She!) I should be kissing her! |

Mary, mary, where you goin' to?
Mary, mary, can I go too. This one thing I will vow ya, I'd rather die than to live without ya. Mary, mary, where you goin' to? Mary, mary, tell me truly What did I do to make you leave me. Whatever it was I didn't mean to, You know I never would try and hurt ya. Mary, mary, where you goin' to? What more, mary, can I do To prove my love is truly yours? I've done more now than a clear-thinkin' man would do. Mary, mary, it's not over. Where you go, I will follow. 'til I win your love again And walk beside you, But until then. Mary, mary, where you goin' to? Mary, mary, where you goin' to? Mary, where you goin' to? Mary, mary, mary, mary, mary, where you goin' to? |

You tell me that you've never been this way before.
You tell me things I know that I've heard somewhere. You're standing in the places and you're staring down through faces, that bring to mind traces of a girl, a girl that I knew somewhere. I just can't put my finger on what it is that says to me "Watch out! Don't believe her." I can't give any reasons girl, my thoughts are bound down in a whirl. I just can't think who in the world was that girl; I know I met her somewhere. Someway, somehow this same thing was done. Someone, somewhere did me this same wrong. Well, goodbye dear, I just can't take this chance again. My fingers are still burning from the last time. And if your love was not a game, I only have myself to blame. That's as may be, I can't explain. Just ask the girl that I knew somewhere. ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By NESMITH, MICHAEL Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing |

When the world and I were young,
Just yesterday. Live was such a simple game, A child could play. It was easy then to tell right from wrong. Easy then to tell weak from strong. When a man should stand and fight, Or just go along. But today there is no day or night Today there is no dark or light. Today there is no black or white, Only shades of gray. I remember when the answers seemed so clear We had never lived with doubt or tasted fear. It was easy then to tell truth from lies Selling out from compromise Who to love and who to hate, The foolish from the wise. But today there is no day or night Today there is no dark or light. Today there is no black or white, Only shades of gray. It was easy then to know what was fair When to keep and when to share. How much to protect your heart And how much to care. But today there is no day or night Today there is no dark or light. Today there is no black or white, Only shades of gray. Only shades of gray. |

Sometime in the morning
A simple thought may occur to you, And you hold her, And tell her all the things you never told her. Your love has shown me things I never thought I could see; I didn't know It could be done so easily. Now I know You're where it is for me. Sometime in the evening You're sitting there by the fireside And she'll touch you And you'll realize how much you never knew before, How much you couldn't see. You didn't know It could be done so easily Now you know She's all a girl could be. Now in her childlike eyes You see the beauty there You know it was always there And you need no longer wear a disguise. Sometime in the morning You'll just reach out and she will be there, Close as the summer air. Sometime in the morning she will be there. |

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. 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. Love is understanding, we gotta be free Love is understanding, we gotta be free |

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?! |

All men must have someone, have someone
Who would never take advantage Of a love bright as the sun. Someone to understand them, And you just may be the one. All men must have someone, have someone Who would never take for granted All the pleasures and the fun. Someone to stand beside them And you just may be the one. I saw when you walked by The love light in your eye And I knew I must try To win you more than just a friend, I'm starting near the end, And I go again. All men must have someone, have someone Who would never take advantage Of a love bright as the sun. Someone to stand beside them And you just may be the one. Someone to understand them, And you just may be the one. |

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) |

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. 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. 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. |

Oh, I could hide neath the wings
Of the bluebird as she sings. The six oclock alarm would never ring. Whoops its ringing and I rise, Wipe the sleep out of my eyes. My shavin razors cold and it stings. Cheer up, sleepy jean. Oh, what can it mean. To a daydream believer And a homecoming queen. You once thought of me As a white knight on a steed. Now you know how happy I can be. Oh, and our good times starts and end Without dollar one to spend. But how much, baby, do we really need. Cheer up, sleepy jean. Oh, what can it mean. To a daydream believer And a homecoming queen. Cheer up, sleepy jean. Oh, what can it mean. To a daydream believer And a homecoming queen. [instrumental interlude] Cheer up, sleepy jean. Oh, what can it mean. To a daydream believer And a homecoming queen. [repeat and fade] |

Sock it to me
Floatin' down the river With a saturated liver And I wish I could forgive her But I do believe she meant it When she told me to forget it And I bet she will regret it When they find me in the morning wet and drowned And the word gets 'round. Goin' down. Goin' down. Comin' up for air It's pretty stuffy down there I'd like to say I didn't care But I forgot to leave a note And it's so hard to stay afloat I'm soakin' wet without a boat And I knew I should have taken off my shoes It's front page news. Goin' down. Goin' down. I wish I had another drink It wouldn't be so hard to think Besides I got the picture straight She must have had another date I didn't need this extrra weight I wish that I could see my way to shore Don't want no more. Goin' down, I'm goin' down. And now I see the life I led I slept it all away in bed I should have learned how to swim instead And now it's really got me stumped I can't believe I really jumped I'd like to get my tummy pumped I can't believe they drink this stuff in town This dirty brown. Goin' down. Goin' down. I wished I'd looked before I leaped I didn't know it was so deep Been down so far I don't get wet Haven't touched the bottom yet This river scene is gettin' old I'm hungry, sleepy, wet and cold She told me to forget it nice I should have taken hr advice I only want to go on home I'd gladly leave that girl alone What a way to spend the night If I don't drown, I'll die of fright My pappy taught me how to float But I can't swim a single note He threw me in to teach me how I stayed there floatin' like a mama cow And now I've floated way downstream If I could find my way to shore I'd never, never do this anymore I'll give you three, I've been down nine I'm goin' down just one more time. Goin' down. Goin' down. Now the sky is gettin' light An everythng will be all right Think I finally got the knack Just floatin' here lazy on my back I never really liked that town I think I'll ride the river down Just movin' slow and floatin' free There's a river swinging under me. Waving back to the folks on shore I should have thought of this before I'm floatin' down to New Orleans Goin' to pick up on some swingin' scenes I know I'll know a better day I'll go down groovin' all the way. Goin' down. Goin' down. |

Just a loud mouth Yankee I went down to Mexico.
I didn't have much time to spend, about a week or so. There I lightly took advantage of a girl who loved me so. But I found myself a-thinkin' when the time had come to go... CHORUS: What am I doin' hangin' round? I should be on that train and gone. I should be ridin' on that train to San Antone, What am I doin' hangin' round? She took me to the garden just for a little walk. I didn't know much Spanish and there was no time for talk. Then she told me that she loved me not with words but with a kiss. And like a fool I kept on thinkin' of a train I could not miss... CHORUS Well it's been a year or so, and I want to go back again. And if I get the money, well I'll ride the same old train. But I guess your chances come but once and boy I sure missed mine. And still I can't stop thinkin' when I hear some whistle cryin'.... CHORUS (repeat |

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 |

Love in a vacuum, love in a space,
Love without even the little hint of a trace, Love in confusion then love doesn't show on your face. Love is a stranger, love is a box, Love is the key that fits a million locks, Love is a mystery when love is the devil you call. Put your heart and soul where I can see them shine, I wish you'd put your heart and soul where I can think they're mine, I wish you'd put your heart and soul where I can see them shine. Love at a distance, love at a walk, Love at the limit if only people could talk, Love for the moment it takes to its wings like a hawk. Love for tomorrow, love for today, Love for the hour it could be coming your way, Love for a puzzle you need a solution to play. Put your heart and soul where I can see them shine, I wish you'd put your heart and soul where I can think they're mine, I wish you'd put your heart and soul where I can see them shine, I wish you'd put your heart and soul where I can think they're mine. I wish you'd put your heart and soul where I can see them shine, I wish you'd put your heart and soul where I can think they're mine, I wish you'd put your heart and soul where I can see them shine, I wish you'd put your heart and soul where I can think they're mine, I wish you'd put your heart and soul where I can see them shine, I wish you'd put your heart and soul where I can think they're mine. |

I'm afraid there's no two ways about it Now you say you need my love, But you'll just have to learn to live without it So goes love Don't try to understand it So goes Love It never goes the way you planned it When you meant the world to me that's the time you said you didn't want me You played around in front of me Yeah, you did everything you could to taunt me So goes love Don't try to understand it So goes Love When it dies you can't disguise it It's been said you've made your bed And now you have to lie in it there's no denying its a shame But there's really no one else for you to blame So goes love Don't try to understand it So goes love It never goes the way you planned it |

Kickin' stones on an old dirt road
Feelin' d-dejected and all alone When I looked up ahead thought my mind I'd blown On a giant toadstool sat a teeny tiny gnome He was all involved in a game of solitaire Said "hello" with a smile just like I wasn't there I kicked dirt some more He said "please don't start a fight." Found a church key in his pocket, he opened up his pipe He blew some silver circles, Wound his fingers in his beard And from that pipe came magic music Like I'd never heard As the notes came floatin' in I pricked up both my ears I walked up to the drive-in, hadn't felt so starved in years A rabbit waiter took my order and quickly disappeared He said "the party's over, Please come back in a thousand years." |

Then came the telegram from Mr. Webster Said, "Sorry...stop...Cannot attend.. I've flown away and taken all your money Wish you were here to help me spend."

Love's a thing that needs one to thrive on
Then it grows At least that's what I've been told You can't love someone If you find that all you get in return A heart that's cold CHORUS They say you need love to love You gotta have love to love They all say it works that way. But if it's true, Why do I love you? Why do I love you? Seems like you keep trying to break me You do things designed just to make me cry And I've heard if warm lips don't touch you Love won't grow no matter how much you try CHORUS X2 Why do I love you...? |

Now listen just a minute while I sing this song,
Don't you worry baby it won't take long. I'm just about ready to draw the line, So don't be surprised if I leave this time. Well I'm goin' north and I'm goin' south Don't want no more of your lyin' mouth. I'm hittin' the road, gonna ring some bells, Better know I can do it well. CHORUS: Midnight train, ramblin' ramblin' All night long I'm gamblin', gamblin' Been losin' all my money and it really is funny, umm badda dum. Midnight train, ramblin' ramblin' Al night I'm gamblin', gamblin' Well tell you what baby, well you better be movin' on. Well I really don't know where I'm goin' for sure, Ain't gotta map, it ain't no tour. Just headin' out to the open sky, Who knows, might even die. Well don't you worry your pretty little head 'Cause you never gave a dang what I did or said. That's why I'm packin' to leave this place Can't stand to look at your cheatin' face. CHORUS Well you treated me like a little boy And played around like I was a toy. Guess you thought I'd have the blues, Look whose cryin', guess you lose. CHORUS (twice) It's about that time, better be movin' on Midnight Train (version from "Missing Links, Vol. 3") 1: Well I'm an angry man, I sing an angry song, Tell you honey it won't be long, Well I'll pack my bags, get outa here, With my guitar and a case o' beer. Well I'm goin' north and I'm goin' south, Tell you honey, better shut you're mouth, Well I'll kick your head from here to hell, You better know I can do it well. CHORUS: Midnight train, ramblin', ramblin', All night long I'm a-gamblin', gamblin', Losin' all my money well it really is funny, hon. Midnight train, ramblin', ramblin', All night long I'm a-gamblin', gamblin', Tell you what'n baby well you better be movin' on. 2: Well I really don't know where I'm goin' for sure, Ain't got a map, and it ain't no tour, I'm just headin' out for the open sky, Who knows? Might even die. Well don't you worry your pretty little head, I never give a damn what I did or said. That's why I'm packin' to leave this place, Can't stand look at your cheatin' face. CHORUS: (repeat) 3: Well you treated me like a little boy, And you played around like I was a toy. I guess you thought I'd have the blues, Look who's cryin', guess you lose. CHORUS: (repeat) CHORUS: Midnight train, rambling, rambling, All night long I'm gambling, gambling. Losing all my money, well it really ain't so funny, hon. Midnight train, rambling, rambling, All night long I'm gambling, gambling. Tell you what'n baby, well you better be moving on. CHORUS: (repeat) CHORUS: It's about that time, better be movin' on. Get outa here, you better be movin' on. Well that's all she wrote, you better be movin' on. |

Riu riu chiu, la guarda ribera;
Dios guardo el lobo de nuestra cordera, Dios guardo el lobo de neustra cordera. El lobo rabioso la quiso morder, Mas Dios poderoso la supo defender; Quisola hazer que no pudiese pecar, Ni aun original esta Virgen no tuviera. Riu, riu chiu... Este qu'es nacido es el gran monarca, Christo patriarca de carne vestido; Hemos redemido con se hazer chiquito, Aunqu'era infinito, finito se hiziera. Riu, riu chiu... Translated: River, roaring river, guard our homes in safety, God has kept the black wolf from our lamb, our Lady. God has kept the black wolf from our lamb, our Lady. Raging mad to bite her, there the wolf did steal, But our God Almighty defended her with zeal. Pure He wished to keep Her so She could never sin, That first sin of man never touched the Virgin sainted. River, roaring river... He who's now begotten is our mighty Monarch, Christ, our Holy Father, in human flesh embodied. He has brough atonement by being born so humble, Though He is immortal, as mortal was created. River, roaring river... |

Circle sky
Telling lies Here I stand At demand And it looks we've made it once again Yes it looks we've made it once again Color sound All around Wing tip smile Sees for miles And it looks we've made it once again Yes it looks we've made it once again It's a very extraordinary scene To those who dont understand But what you have seen you must believe If you can If you can Hamilton Smiling down Telling more Than before And it looks we've made it once again Yes it looks we've made to the end |

Hollow, carnival voice sings
Tunes of nobody's choice And on a vacant lot Someone just forgot Standing all alone Turning on it's own Weary, merry go round Grows slowly into the ground And faded circus acts Sorrow broke their backs And their sadness cries From their staring eyes Still, small children come And bring the harm of play Spirits all alive To drive the ghosts away Useless merry go round Tomorrow they'll tear you down To build a parking lot If it lives or not It was just a toy All it brought was joy |

Did you buy your tickets for the war game?
Aren't you glad that your sitting in the back? For the game is deadly having all the players Aren't you glad it's a spectator sport Can't you hear the cries? It isn't over Can't you smell the fear? It's all over If you want to play the game, you must have playmates Choose your side play guitar (???) but play to win Don't be sad if you loose it itsn't over Pick your side and begin the game agianIt isn't over Can't you hear the cries? It isn't over Can't you smell the fear? It's all over You don't have to play the game if you don't want to You can sit at home and hear it on the news They will show you colored pictures of the killings They want you to feel that you're part of it too. Can't you hear the cries? It isn't over Don't you smell the fear? It's all over It's all over |

I'm holdin' my hand out
Keepin' my head high Tryin' to get out of mechanical night When I get to the top of the clear crystal mountain I'm gonna stay up there as long as I can And look down Diggin' the sights all around Listenin' to all of the sounds And look down, and look down, and look in And my mind sends me reelin' Breathin' and feelin' I remember the time when I tried to come clean But my interests collided, besides I was misguided And who do you confide in when you trip on a dream? And look down Diggin' the sights all around Listenin' to all of the sounds And look down, and look down, and look in If you want to come with me And tell me what you see Just step in beside me and do what you want And you may see clearly Though it sometimes is lonely To be free is the only possession that counts I'm holdin' my hand out And keepin' my head high Tryin' to get out of mechanical night When I get to the top of the clear crystal mountain I'm gonna stay up there as long as I can Diggin' the sights all around Listenin' to all of the sounds And look down, and look down, and look down, and look down... Look down, look down, look down... Hold on, I'm comin'... |

The sun that's falling from the south-western sky
Tells me that I must depart So by sundown today I'll be on my way But I'll be leavin' my heart It's not the country side that appealed to my eyes It's the spirit and it captured my mind But the things I tried to be made a wreck out of me Now a different road I mind find These things I think are new I guess they're really old It seems I've done 'em once before Now to go back to that fork in the road Takes all the strength of my soul and more Oh good bye, good bye you cruel town You've been a fair weather friend Now I will go to some places that I know Where things don't start just to end These things I think are new I guess they're really old It seems I've done 'em once before Now to go back to that fork in the road Takes all the strength of my soul and more Good bye, good good bye you cruel town You've been a fair weather friend Now I will go to some place that I know Where things don't start just to end Uh! |

How insensitive
I must have seemed when she told me that she loved me How unnerved and cold I must have seemed when she told so sincerely Why she must have asked Did I just turn and stare in icy silence? What was I to do, what can you do When a love affair is over? So now she's gone away And I'm alone with the memory of her last look Vague and drawn and sad I see it still, all the heartache in that last look Why she must have asked Did I just turn and stare in icy silence? What was I to say, what can you say When a love affair is over? |

If your the girl that i know this (the rest of this line is unclear),
than your more than welcome to my share of the sidewalk. If your the chick I saw in the tall grass looking at someone through tinted blue glass, than your more than welcome to my share of the sidewalk. Cause I've never been this close before, to someone who didn't seem to mind. I've never found hellos before, I've only found goodbyes. If your the girl I met in my daydreams, handing out flowers and chocolate ice cream, than your more than welcome to my share of the sidewalk. If your the girl that I talked to and said do you mind if I love you, than your more than welcome to my share of the sidewalk. Cause I've never been this close before, to someone who didn't run and hide. I've never found hellos before, I've only found goodbyes.

If you have the time would you keep me in mind
Mind you, I only want to treat you kind If you're all alone, would you pick up the phone And dial the number that you know Will bring back the glow That's been gone for such a long, long time I feel like I'm just acting like a fool, Talking to my pillow, once a happy fellow was I I know that I'll get over you if I have to, but do I have to? I don't want to spend another day being so far away From the girl that I love It's been gone for such a long, long time I feel like I'm just acting like a fool, Talking to my pillow, once a happy fellow was I I know that I'll get over you if I have to, but do I have to? I don't want to spend another day being so far away From the girl that I love If you have the time would you keep me in mind Mind you, I only want to treat you kind If you're all alone, would you pick up the phone And dial the number that you know Will bring back the glow That's been gone for such a long, long time |

Out of sight, out of mind
It doesn't hold true In my storybook of you Turn a page, back in time That's all I can do In my storybook of you First in love, then afraid Somehow every story must come to an end Though it happened too soon In my storybook of you Out of sight, out of mind It doesn't hold true In my storybook of you |

My race is nearly run My strongest trials now have past My triumph is begun Oh come angel band Come and around me stand Oh bear me away on your snow white wings To my immortal home Oh bear me away on your snow white wings To my immortal home Oh bear my longing heart to Him Who bled and died for me Whose blood now cleanses from all sin And brings me victory Oh come angel band Come and around me stand Oh bear me away on your snow white wings To my immortal home Oh bear me away on your snow white wings To my immortal home Oh come angel band Come and around me stand Oh bear me away on your snow white wings To my immortal home Oh bear me away on your snow white wings To my immortal home... |
