I want to ride ride the tiger
I want to ride ride the tiger It will be black and white in the dead of night Eyes flashing in the clear moonlight I want to ride ride the tiger Its like a tear in the hands of a western man Tell you about salt carbon and water But a tear to a chinese man He'll tell you about sadness and sorrow or the love of a man and a woman I want to ride ride the tiger I want to sail through the risin sun for you and you We got something to learn from the other side Something to give we got nothing to hide I want to ride ride the tiger Black wants out in the streets Yellow wants the country Red wants the country back And white wants out of this world Sing sing to the sky I want to ride ride the tiger I want to ride ride the tiger Look to the summer of seventy-five All the world is going to come alive Do you want to ride ride the tiger Its like a tear in the hands of a western man Tell you about salt carbon and water But a tear to a oriental man He'll tell you about sadness and sorrow or the love of a man and a woman |

Think of the times you have sat by yourself
And wondered Just what it was that compelled you to be What you are You came into this life unsheltered and all alone That's how you came and for sure that's how you go out. High on a hill you can feel the breeze And rest easy All things that live have a right to exist And be free. You came into this life unsheltered and all alone That's how you came and for sure that's how you'll go out That's for sure, that's how you go out That's for sure, that's how you go out That's for sure, that's how you go out That's for sure, that's how you go out. Is there a chance you have taken these steps So not losing Losing all that you have, don't you know what you have is not real You came into this life unsheltered and all alone That's how you came and for sure that's how you go out Yeah that's for sure That's how you go out That's how you go out That's how you go out That's how you go out. |

The tongues of some men are made of metal
The tongues of some men are made of oil But the keeper of those men never rolled Their tongues for anybody's free ride but his own Now the oily tongues are thirsty for black gold. But the old men are going to bed They'll be sleeping through the future And the children red with fire They got to move away the old man's rusty beds. Now the tongue, the tongue of a master That should be laughter - with dancing legs Like a flying wheel for the weak and sad man Some tongues of man are made of silence And your eyes will listen. |

Oh what can I tell you now, Caroline
Should I hurt your feelings or keep on lyin'? One thing leads to another and another And another and another besides You always know whenever I wanna make love And you always know all the changes I'm going through Just as if you can read my mind Caroline, you know everything I do There just ain't no words to describe How I feel inside for you. Yet somewhere out there Waitin' on a wonder You'll lend wings to my words Somewhere when the band is gone And the music of my song Is just right for lovers. You're what I want more than anything else I love you - yes I do - but I know when I'm all by myself Nothin' is real but my feelings and desires for you And everything looks like some sort of scenery Stored in an empty theatre With stars on the ground - fences in the sky And tears in the curtain of time Oh what can I tell you, my Caroline. Except yet somewhere out there Waitin' on a wonder You'll lend wings to my words Somewhere when the band is gone And the music of my song Is just right for lovers. Caroline, your lovin' keeps me rollin' Rollin' all the time, rollin' all the time Baby - somewhere out there You really roll me Roll me away Baby - somewhere out there You roll me, roll me away. And when the melody makes me surrender Dark eyed girl, I always remember That you love me somewhere out there You really love me in time to the music How you love me wildly in my heart Girl, you love me You roll me away. You always fill my heart with wonder You always fill my soul with love You always fill my lips with kisses You always fill my eyes with tears. It's like a wind from the other side of the world Like a far off pack of hounds Sounds like a whole universe - throbbin' with life I get so hypnotized in the lights Just like the gaze of a mantis Why even Atlantis sank beneath The waves in a day and a night Oh, in a day and a night I could write You a symphony It would be just like a bird And carry my love over the mountains. Cause somewhere out there Waitin' on a wonder You'll lend wings to my words Somewhere when the band is gone And the music of my song Is just right for lovers. You always fill my heart with wonder You always fill my soul with love You always fill my lips with kisses You always fill my eyes with tears. Cry Caroline. |

Everything, everything has come to life again
I have no doubts but the ice got thin What came too soon was so hard to keep So full a harvest it was hard to reap There were times seemed just like the walls would crumble Shoot from the hip and pray for trouble Stone-cold sober and a-seeing double How that midnight band could ramble Taking mansions and leaving shambles Remember other times and places Last night's dance, the glowing faces All the lights, the shadows in the hall Seeking higher peaks from which to fall Remember, we were telling you That time would stop and nations fall Now we find the lies come true Can you tell me, tell me, tell me What are we to do? Because the good old days Those good old days are all dead and gone Good-bye and bless them all, every one What was true has passed the test Just as well forget the rest Half of what you saw was not yours to know Let it go. Everything has come to life again |

Moonrise above the Rio Grande
On this fantasy of sand As I drift into a dream And I feel the comet scream Three birds watching from a rock And I swear the third one talked Rise up through the fog and we can All fly away All fly away Let's leave today And we can climb through time tomorrow. Space city like a jewel on wings Rocket ships like bees they sting Planets of fantastic sight Floating up in pastel light Twisted trees in Martian breeze Catch that horse don't let him freeze Won't you come along and we can all fly away All fly away, let's leave today And we can climb through time tomorrow. We rode a bubble through the sun We all knew it could be done There were men with fiery wings And a million burning things Silver statues on the run Bleeding there since Kingdom come Won't you pick them up and we can all fly away All fly away, let's leave today And we can climb through time tomorrow Dragon fly away. |

I never thought there were corners in time
Till I was told to stand in one One straight line head on into the other Maybe standing in the corner looks like where it's got to come. But I pretend one wall is the past and one is the future And I just stand here like the present looking for a Good place to run Every fish that swims upstream now that's a catch Because the full mouth never wants to stop cooking. The map may be flat, the globe may be patched But the long line keeps right on hooking Circles in the ring of fire, where do you go On a night that is clear and warm? Oh where do you go? I never thought there were corners in time Till I was told to stand in one I've heard circles moving right through corners And they don't even know they've been around and around before Ringing, ringing against each other on a singing chain Like a flying magnet hyperdrive has never seen any reason To remain the same. Because I felt it I believe it Because there are things I've never seen that I believe So I'm going to place my face right in the triangle door Till I can move right on through instead of just standing here Looking at the floor. And it rains again tonight, I can think light years ahead Or I could put myself back a thousand years ago As if I'd always been here before or as if I am still to be born I'm a slow loser, but I'm a fast learner That much I know Anyone can go That much I know Anyone can go That much I know Anyone can go. |
