Oh my home is in the mountains
I am free, I am free I am one with wind and eagles I am free Given wings to sail in gracefulness The sky, The sky Given voice to sing in breathlessness I find that I can fly! (fly away) (U p tempo) I been a long time on the highway I been a long time one the run And it gets to be like chaos when I'm so long away from home And sometimes its just too much to bare and I hide behind my eyes I can picture friendly faces and I can dream of friendly skies and I guess that I'm the lucky one For the truth of what I know For my heart has not denied me, and I have somewhere to go I shall never be a prisinor twix steel and glass and stone And if I leave I will return to my Rocky Mountain home. (yodeling chorus) Oh my home is in the mountains I am free I am free I am one with wind and eagle I am free Given wing to sail in gracefulness the sky the sky Given voice to sing in breathlessness I find that I can fly, fly away In the Hands of my Father Inthe Light of the Sunshine On the Wings of an Eagle I'm flying again (I'm flying again) I'm flying again (I'm flying again) I'm flying again (I'm flying again) I'm flying again (and I'm flying again) |

Rusty green summer's almost gone, I see winds clouding up the sun
And I can't find my way, everything's grey Rusty green eyes on my mind, memories someplace out of time All the things we would do ,I still love you It's a sad song to sing, painted rusty green A brief fading picture of spring |

Four strong winds that blow slowly Seven seas that run high All these things that don't change come what may Now our good times are all gone And I'm bound for moving on I'll look for you if I'm ever back this way Guess I'll go out to Alberta Weather's good there in the Fall Got some friends that I can go to workin' for Still I wish you'd change your mind If I asked you one more time But we've been thru that a hundred times or more Four strong winds that blow lonely Seven seas that run high All these things that don't change come what may Now our good times are all gone And I'm bound for movin' on I'll look for you if I'm ever back this way If I get there before the snow flies and if things are going good You could meet me if I send you down the fare But by then it would be winter Nothing much for you to do And the wind sure blows cold way out there Four strong winds that blow slowly Seven seas that run high All these things that don't change come what may Now our good times are all gone And I'm bound for movin' on I'll look for you if I'm ever back this way Yes, I'll look for you if I'm ever back this way |

I came into this lovely city about three weeks ago today,
and I've been trying to find someone that I can talk to, a friendly face to turn my way. I walk these streets in silent sorrow, I walk my feet into the ground, and all I see are cloudy, cold, suspicious faces, I swear to God it brings me down. Is there no one with a smile for me, no one with a hello in their eyes? Is there no one who will love me and help me through the dark and lonely night? The park's so green and full of flowers and lovers lying on the lawn. I wish I had a lady here that I could laugh with, sweet Jesus Christ, it hurts me so to be alone. Is there no one with a smile for me, no one with a hello in their eyes? Is there no one who will love me and help me through the dark and lonely night? Singing la la la la la la, Singing la la la la la la. This life is hard and full of trouble, it's painful just to live from day to day. But if you're weary and afraid don't turn away now, there's no reason why we have to feel this way. Is there no one with a smile for me, no one with a hello in their eyes? Is there no one who will love me and help me through the dark and lonely night? Singing la la la la la la, Singing la la la la la la. I just need someone to talk to. It hurts to be alone. I just need someone to laugh with. It hurts to be alone. I just want someone to love me. I need someone to talk to. And it hurts to be alone. Singing la la la la la la, Singing la la la la la la. Singing la la la la la la, Singing la la la la la la. |

I played a weddin' for the money and I wished I could have told the bride and groom
Just what I think of marriage and what's in store after the honeymoon And I was rumblin' through the verses 'bout how men and women ought to live apart And how a promise never made could not be broken and could never break a heart Suddenly from out of nowhere, this little girl came spinnin' across the floor And all her crinolines were billowing beneath the skirt of calico she wore As her joy fell on the honored guests, each one of them was draw into her dream And they laughed and stamped and clapped their hands and hollered at her, "Dance Little Jean" And they said, "Dance Little Jean this day is for you Two people that ya love stood up to say, 'I do'" "Dance Little Jean a prayer that ya had Was answered today your mamma's marryin' your dad" Well, this cynic's heart just melted as I figur'd what this get together meant And how it ended years of tears and sad confusion that the little girl had spent They told the band to pack it up about time the couple cut the cake But we stayed and we played all night long for love and laughs and Little Jeanie's sake And we played "Dance Little Jean this day is for you Two people that you love stood up to say, 'I do'" "Dance Little Jean a prayer that ya had Was answered today your mamma's marryin' your dad" We said "Dance Little Jean this day is for you Two people that you love stood up to say, 'I do'" "Dance Little Jean a prayer that ya had Was answered today your mamma's marryin' your dad" |

There's such a high wind blowing
It's snowing in my bed Oh baby, you started flowers growing where nothing grew instead. I need some things to hide the failure Of my garden, and the way it grew Oh baby, I didn't know I could depend on you There's such a high wind blowing I won't get to sleep tonight I think that warm wind feels alright There's such a high wind blowing I won't get to sleep at all, I feel like I'm gonna fall Into your fine high wind. You look like twilight falling On the ocean in the setting sun Oh baby, do you know what you have done I feel like you have changed my mind About living the way I do Oh baby, I didn't know I could depend on you There's such a high wind blowing I won't get to sleep tonight I think that warm wind feels alright There's such a high wind blowing I won't get to sleep at all I feel like I'm gonna fall Into your fine high wind.

Be sure it's true when you say, "I love you"
It's a sin to tell a lie Millions of hearts have been broken Just because these words were spoken I love you, yes I do, I love you If you break my heart I'll die So be sure it's true when you say, "I love you" It's a sin to tell a lie Cross my heart, I hope to die I'll never, never, never tell another white lie Took a little girl out on a date last night Next to her Gramma Gerty would have looked alright Now I'm between the devil and the deep blue sea Cause I said "Baby you look good to me" I told her I loved her and oh how I lied Now she's getting set to be my blushing bride If she leads me to the altar, I'm sunk Cause I cannot tell the preacher I was drunk So Dear Lord have mercy on a no account sinner Give me one more chance to let another guy win her Cross my heart, I hope to die I'll never, never, never, tell one more time I'll never tell another white lie O-lee-o-lee-o-lee-o |

They are minstrels and beggars
Always in the sight of the king Sometimes they sleep in the daytime Come out in the night time and sing They come into the castle Through whatever window they can find They come into your mind Dreams of flying Dreams of being free Nobody can take my dreams from me. Nobody can take my dreams from me. You can bind me in chains Lock me up in a jailhouse to rot And if you come to see me You might think I'm there, but I am not They can sail into prison Find a way thru any basement door They can offer you more Dreams of flying Dreams of being free Nobody can take my dreams from me Nobody can take my dreams from me You can take my money Take my reputation Even take my colour TV Nobody can take my dreams from me Nobody can take my dreams from me |

This song was first released on the Whose Garden Was This? Album. It is the only album it has been released on.
Time, there was a time You could talk to me without speaking You would look at me and I'd know All there was to know Days, I think of you And remember the lies we told In the night, the love we knew The things we shared when our hearts were beating together Days, that were so few Full of love and you Gone, the days are gone now Days, that seem so wrong now Life, won't be the same Without you to hold again in my arms To ease the pain and remember When our love was a reason for living Days, that were so few Full of love and you The game is over Words and music by John Denver, Bourtayne and Bouchety |
