Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River Life is old there, older than the trees Younger than the mountains, growing like a breeze Country roads, take me home to the place I belong West Virginia, Mountain Mama Take me home, country roads All my memories gather 'round her Miner's lady, stranger to blue water Dark and dusty, painted on the sky Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye Country roads, take me home to the place I belong West Virginia, Mountain Mama Take me home, country roads I hear her voice, in the mornin' hour she calls me The radio reminds me of my home far away And drivin' down the road, I get a feelin That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday Country roads, take me home to the place I belong West Virginia, Mountain Mama Take me home, country roads Country roads, take me home to the place I belong West Virginia, Mountain Mama Take me home, country roads Take me home, (down) country roads Take me home, (down) country roads |

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry Sunshine on the water looks so lovely Sunshine almost always makes me high If I had a day that I could give you I'd give to you the day just like today If I had a song that I could sing for you I'd sing a song to make you feel this way Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry Sunshine on the water looks so lovely Sunshine almost always makes me high If I had a tale that I could tell you I'd tell a tale sure to make you smile If I had a wish that I could wish for you I'd make a wish for sunshine for all the while Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry Sunshine on the water looks so lovely Sunshine almost all the time makes me high Sunshine almost always... |

I've been lately thinkin' about my life's time
All the things I've done and how it's been And I can't help believin' in my own mind I know I'm gonna hate to see it end I've seen a lot of sunshine, slept out in the rain Spent a night or two all on my own I've known my lady's pleasures, had myself some friends Spent a time or two in my own home And I have to say it now, it's been a good life all in all It's really fine to have the chance to hang around Lie there by the fire and watch the evening tire While all my friends and my old lady sit and pass a pipe around And talk of poems, and prayers and promises and things that we believe in How sweet it is to love someone, how right it is to care How long it's been since yesterday, what about tomorrow? And what about our dreams and all the memories we share? The days they pass so quickly now, nights are seldom long Time around me whispers when it's cold The changes somehow frighten me, still I have to smile It turns me on to think of growing old For though my life's been good to me, there's still so much to do So many things my mind has never known I'd like to raise a family, I'd like to sail away And dance across the mountains on the moon And I have to say it now, it's been a good life all in all It's really fine to have the chance to hang around Lie there by the fire and watch the evening tire While all my friends and my old lady sit and pass a pipe around And talk of poems, and prayers and promises and things that we believe in How sweet it is to love someone, how right it is to care How long it's been since yesterday, what about tomorrow? And what about our dreams and all the memories we share? |

Ohhhhhh,
I am the Eagle, I live in high country, The rocky cathedrals that reach to the sky. I am the Hawk, And there's blood on my feathers, But time is still turning, They soon will be dry. And all those who see me, And all who believe in me, Share in the freedom I feel when I fly! Come dance with the west wind, And touch on the mountain tops, Sail over the canyons, And up to the stars. And reach for the heavens, And hope for the future, And all that we can be, Not just what we are... |

He was born in the summer of his 27th year
Coming home to a place he'd never been before He left yesterday behind him, you might say he was born again You might say he found a key for every door When he first came to the mountains, his life was far away On the road and hanging by a song But the string's already broken and he doesn't really care It keeps changin' fast and it don't last for long It's the Colorado Rocky Mountain high I've seen it raining fire in the sky The shadows from the starlight are softer than a lullaby Rocky Mountain high (Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) He climbed cathedral mountains, he saw silver clouds below He saw everything as far as you can see And they say that he got crazy once and he tried to touch the sun And he lost a friend but kept the memory Now he walks in quiet solitude, the forests and the streams Seeking grace in every step he takes His sight is turned inside himself to try and understand The serenity of a clear blue mountain lake And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high I've seen it raining fire in the sky Talk to God and listen to the casual reply Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) Now his life is full of wonder but his heart still knows some fear Of the simple things he cannot comprehend Why they try to tear the mountains down to bring in a couple more More people, more scars upon the land In the Colorado Rocky Mountain high I've seen it raining fire in the sky I know he'd be a poorer man if he never saw an eagle fly Rocky Mountain high The Colorado Rocky Mountain high I've seen it raining fire in the sky Friends around the campfire and everybody's high Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high in Colorado) |

There's a storm across the valley
Clouds are rolling in The afternoon lies heavy On your shoulders There's a truck out on the four lane A mile or more away And the whining of his wheels Just makes it colder He's an hour away from riding On his prayers up in the sky And ten days on the road Are barely gone Like a fire softly burning Supper's on the stove It's the light in your eyes That keeps him warm Chorus Hey it's good to be back home again Sometimes this old farm Feels like a long lost friend Yes, and hey it's good to be back home again There's all the news to tell him How you've spent your time And what's the latest thing the neighbors say And your mother called last Friday Sunshine made her cry And you felt the baby move just yesterday (Repeat chorus then) (Bridge) And all the time that I can lay this tired old body down To feel your fingers feather soft upon me The kisses that I live for The love that lights my way The happiness that living with you brings me It's the sweetest thing i know of Just spending time with you It's the little things that make a house a home Like a fire softly burning, supper's on the stove And it's the light in your eyes that makes me warm (Repeat chorus then) (Tag) I said hey it's good to be back home again... |

It's cold here in the city
It always seems that way And I've been thinking about you almost everyday Thinking about the good times Thinking about the rain Thinking about how bad it feels alone again I'm sorry for the way things are in China I'm sorry things ain't what they used to be But more than anything else I'm sorry for myself 'Cause you're not here with me Our friends all ask about you I say you're doing fine And I expect to hear from you almost anytime But they all know I'm crying And I can't sleep at night They all know I'm dying down deep inside I'm sorry for all the lies I told you I'm sorry for the things I didn't say But more than anything else I'm sorry for myself I can't believe you went away [break] I'm sorry if I took some things for granted I'm sorry for the chains I put on you But more than anything else I'm sorry for myself For living without you It's cold here in the city It always seems that way And I've been thinking about you almost everyday |

To sail on a dream on a crystal clear ocean
To ride on the crest of a wild raging storm To work in the service of life and the living In search of the answers to questions unknown To be part of the movement and part of the growing Part of beginning to understand Aye, Calypso, the places you've been to The things that you've taught us, the stories you tell Aye, Calypso, I sing to your spirit The men who have served you so long and so well Like the dolphin who guides you, you bring us beside you To light up the darkness and show us the way For though we are strangers in your silent world To live on the land we must learn from the sea To be true as the tide and free as the wind swell Joyful and loving in letting it be Aye, Calypso, the places you've been to The things that you've shown us, the stories you tell Aye, Calypso, I sing to your spirit The men who have served you so long and so well Aye, Calypso, the places you've been to The things that you've shown us, the stories you tell Aye, Calypso, I sing to your spirit The men who have served you so long and so well |

On the road of experience,
I'm trying to find my own way. Sometimes I wish that I could fly away. When I think that I'm moving, Suddenly things stand still. I'm afraid 'cause I think they alway will. And I'm looking for space, And to find out who I am. And I'm looking to know and understand. It's a sweet, sweet dream. Sometimes I'm almost there. Sometimes I fly like an eagle And sometimes I'm deep in despair. All alone in the universe, Sometimes that's how it seems. I get lost in the sadness and the screams. Then I look in the center, Suddenly everything's clear. I find myself in the sunshine and my dreams. And I'm looking for space, And to find out who I am. And I'm looking to know and understand. It's a sweet, sweet dream. Sometimes I'm almost there. Sometimes I fly like an eagle And sometimes I'm deep in despair. On the road of experience, Join in the living day. If there's an answer, It's just that it's just that way. When you're looking for space, And to find out who you are. When you're looking to try and reach the stars. It's a sweet, sweet, sweet dream. Sometimes I'm almost there. Sometimes I fly like an eagle And sometimes I'm deep in despair. Sometimes I fly like an eagle. Like an eagle I go flying High. |

Usually in the morning
I'm filled with sweet belonging And Everything is beautiful to see Even when it's raining The sound of heaven singing Is simply joyful music to me Sometimes I feel like a sad song Like I'm all alone without you So many different places A million smiling faces Life Is so incredible to me Especially to be near you And how it is to touch you Oh, paradise was made for you and me Sometimes I feel like a sad song Like I'm all alone without you I know that life goes on just perfectly Everything is just the way that it should be Still there are times when my heart feel like breaking And anywhere is where I'd rather be Oh, and in the nighttime I know that it's the right time To hold you close and tell you I love you so To have someone to share with And someone I can care with And that is why I wanted you to know Sometimes I feel like a sad song Like I'm all alone without you Without you. |

Lady, are you crying, do the tears belong to me
Did you think our time together was all gone Lady, you've been dreaming, I'm as close as I can be And I swear to you our time has just begun Close your eyes and rest your weary mind I promise I will stay right here beside you Today our lives were joined, became entwined I wish that you could know how much I love you Lady, are you happy, do you feel the way I do Are there meanings that you've never seen before Lady, my sweet lady, I just can't believe it's true And it's like I've never, ever loved before (Chorus) Lady, are you crying, do the tears belong to me Did you think our time together was all gone Lady, my sweet lady, I'm as close as I can be And I swear to you our time has just begun |

Perhaps love is like a resting place, a shelter from the storm
It exists to give you comfort, it is there to keep you warm And in those times of trouble when you are most alone The memory of love will bring you home Perhaps love is like a window, perhaps an open door It invites you to come closer, it wants to show you more And even if you lose yourself and don't know what to do The memory of love will see you through Love to some is like a cloud, to some as strong as steel For some a way of living, for some a way to feel And some say love is holding on and some say letting go And some say love is everything, and some say they don't know Perhaps love is like the ocean, full of conflict, full of pain Like a fire when it's cold outside, thunder when it rains If I should live forever, and all my dreams come true My memories of love will be of you Love to some is like a cloud, to some as strong as steel For some a way of living, for some a way to feel And some say love is holding on and some say letting go And some say love is everything, and some say they don't know |

It's funny how you sound as if you're right next door
When you're really half a world away I just can't seem to find the words I'm looking for To say the things that I want to say I can't remember when I felt so close to you It's almost more than I can bear And though I seem a half a million miles from you You are in my heart and living there And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see It's the same old sun up in the sky And your voice in my ear is like heaven to me Like the breezes here in old Shanghai There are lovers who walk hand in hand in the park And lovers who walk all alone There are lovers who lie unafraid in the dark And lovers who long for home Oh, I couldn't leave you even if I wanted to You're in my dreams and always near And especially when I sing the songs I wrote for you You are in my heart and living there And the moon and the stars are the same ones we see It's the same old sun up in the sky And your face in my dreams is like heaven to me Like the breezes here in old Shanghai Shanghai breezes, cool and clearing, evening's sweet caress Shanghai breezes, soft and gentle, remind me of your tenderness And the moon and the stars are the same ones we see It's the same old sun up in the sky And your love in my life is like heaven to me Like the breezes here in old Shanghai And the moon and the stars are the same ones we see It's the same old sun up in the sky And your love in my life is like heaven to me Like the breezes here in old Shanghai Just like the breezes here in old Shanghai |

He was born in the Bitteroot Valley in the early morning rain
Wild geese over the water, heading north and home again Bringin' a warm wind from the south, bringin' the first taste of the spring His mother took him to her breast and softly she did sing: CHORUS: Oh, Montana, give this child a home Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes Give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild Montana skies His mother died that summer and he never learned to cry He never knew his father and he never did ask why He never knew the answers that would make an easy way But he learned to know the wilderness and to be a man that way His mother's brother took him in to his family and his home Gave him a hand that he could lean on and a strength to call his own And he learned to be a farmer and he learned to love the land And he learned to read the seasons and he learned to make a stand CHORUS On the eve of his 21st birthday, he set out on his own He was 30 years and runnin' when he found his way back home Ridin' a storm across the mountains and an achin' in his heart Said he came to turn the pages and to make a brand new start Now he never told the story of the time that he was gone Some say he was a lawyer, some say he was a john There was something in the city that he said he couldn't breathe There was something in the country that he said he couldn't leave CHORUS Now some say he was crazy and some are glad he's gone But some of us will miss him and we'll try to carry on Giving a voice to the forest, giving a voice to the dawn Giving a voice to the wilderness and the land that he lived on CHORUS x2 |
