The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time Any fool can do it There ain't nothing to it Nobody knows how we got to The top of the hill But since we're on our way down We might as well enjoy the ride The secret of love is in opening up your heart It's okay to feel afraid But don't let that stand in your way 'Cause anyone knows that love is the only road And since we're only here for a while Might as well show some style Give us a smile Isn't it a lovely ride Sliding down Gliding down Try not to try too hard It's just a lovely ride Now the thing about time is that time Isn't really real It's just your point of view How does it feel for you Einstein said he could never understand it all Planets spinning through space The smile upon your face Welcome to the human race Some kind of lovely ride I'll be sliding down I'll be gliding down Try not to try too hard It's just a lovely ride Isn't it a lovely ride Sliding down Gliding down Try not to try too hard It's just a lovely ride Now the secret of life is enjoying the passage of time |

When this old world starts-a gettin' me down And people are just too much for me to face I'll climb way up to the top of the stairs And all my cares just drift right into space On the roof, it's peaceful as can be And there the world below don't bother me, no, no So when I come home feelin' tired and beat I'll go up where the air is fresh and sweet I'll get far away from the hustlin' crowd And all that rat-race noise down in the street On the roof, that's the only place I know Look at the city, baby Where you just have to wish to make it so Let's go up on the roof And at night the stars they put on a show for free And darlin', you can share it all with me That's what I said Keep on tellin' you... That right smack dab in the middle of town I found a paradise that's troubleproof And if this old world starts-a gettin' you down There's room enough for two Up on the roof Up on the roof Up on the roof Woah, now Everything is all right, everything is all right C'mon! Stop what you're doin' tonight and climb up the stairs Be free baby We've got the stars above and the city lights below Wo-ah up on the roof, now (Oooooohhhhhhh |

She's been afraid to go out. She's afraid of the knock on her door. There's always a shade of a doubt. She can never be sure. Who comes to call? Maybe the friend of a friend of a friend, anyone at all. Anything but nothing again. It used to be her town, |

more than a distant land over a shining sea more than the steaming green more than the shining eyes well they tell me it's only a dream in rio nothing could be as sweet as it seems on this very first day down they remind me "son have you so soon forgotten often as not it's rotten inside and the mask soon slips away" strange taste of a tropical fruit romantic language of the portuguese melody on a wooden flute somba floating in the summer breeze it's alright you can stay asleep you can close your eyes you can trust the people of paradise to call your keeper and tender your goodbyes oh what a night wonderful one in a million frozen fire brazillian stars oh holy southern cross later on take me way downtown in a tin can; can't come down from the bandstand i'm never thrown for such a loss when they say quando a nossa mae acordar andareimoz au sol quando a nossa mae acordar cantara' pelos sertao quando a nossa mea acordar todos os filios saberao todos os filios saberao e regozilarao caught in the rays of the rising sun on the run from the soldier's gun shouting out loud from the angry crowd the mild the wild and the hungry child i'll tell you there's more than a dream in rio i was there on the very day and my heart came back alive there was more more than the singing voices more than the upturned faces and more than the shining eyes but it's more than the shining eye more than the steaming green more than the hidden hills more than the concrete christ more than a distant land over a shining sea more than a hungry child more like another time born of a million years more than a million years |

We were ring-around-the-rosy children, they were circles around the sun. Never give up, never slow down, never grow old, never ever die young. Synchronized with the rising moon, even with the evening star, they were true love written in stone, they were never alone, they were never that far apart. And we who couldn't bear to believe they might make it, we got to close our eyes. Cut up our losses into doable doses, ration our tears and sighs. Oh, you could see them on the street on a Saturday night. Everyone used to run them down. They're a little too sweet, they're a little too tight, not enough tough for this town. Couldn't touch them with a ten-foot pole, no, it didn't seem to rattle at all. They were glued together body and soul, that much more with their backs up against the wall. Oh, hold them up, hold them up, never do let them fall prey to the dust and the rust and the ruin that names us and claims us and shames us all. I guess it had to happen someday soon- wasn't nothing to hold them down. They would rise from among us like a big balloon, take the sky, forsake the ground. Oh, yes, other hearts were broken, yeah, other dreams ran dry but our golden ones sail on, sail on to another land beneath another sky. (Let other hearts be broken, let other dreams run dry) but our golden ones sail on, sail on to another land beneath another sky, beneath another sky. Hold them up, hold them up, hold them up, hold them up, hold them up, hold them up... (Hold them up, don't let them fall). |

Even the old folks never knew Why they call it like they do I was wondering since the age of two Down on Copperline Copper head, copper beech Copper kettles sitting side by each Copper coil, cup o'Georgia peach Down on Copperline Half a mile down to Morgan Creek Leaning heavy on the end of the week Hercules and a hog-nosed snake Down on Copperline We were down on Copperline One Summer night on the Copperline Slip away past supper time Wood smoke and moonshine Down on Copperline One time I saw my daddy dance Watched him moving like a man in a trance He bought it back from the war in France Down onto Copperline Branch water and tomato wine Creosote and turpentine Sour mash and new moon shine Down on Copperline Down on Copperline First kiss ever I took Like a page from a romance book The sky opened and the earth shook Down on Copperline Down on Copperline Took a fall from a windy height I only knew how to hold on tight And pray for love enough to last all night Down on Copperline Day breaks and the boys wakes up And the dog barks and the birds sings And the sap rises and the angels sigh, yeah I tried to go back, as if I could All spec house and plywood Tore up and tore up good Down on Copperline It doesn't come as a surprise to me It doesn't touch my memory Man I'm lifting up and rising free Down on over Copperline Half a mile down to Morgan Creek I'm only living for the end of the week Hercules and a hog-nosed snake Down on Copperline, yeah Take me down on Copperline Oh, down on Copperline Take me down on Copperline |

Wake up Suzy, put your shoes on, walk with me into this light, oh, finally this morning, I'm feeling whole again, it was a hell of a night. Just to be with you by my side, just to have you near in my sight. Just to walk a while in this light, just to know that life goes on. Wake up Suzy, put your shoes on, walk with me into this light. Another night has gone, life goes on, another dawn is breaking. Turn and face the sun, one by one, the world outside is waking. Morning light has driven away all the shadows that hide your way. And night has given away to the promise of another day. Another day, another chance that we may finally find our way. Another day, the sun has begun to melt all our fears away. Another day, another day. Oh, wake up Suzy, put your shoes on, walk with me into this light. |
