You are here and warm
But I could look away and you'd be gone
'Cause we live in a time
When meaning falls in splinters from our lives
And that's why I've traveled far
'Cause I come so together where you are

Yes, and all of the things that I said that I wanted
Come rushing by in my head when I'm with you
Fourteen joys and a will to be merry
All of the things that they say are very

Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental lady, gentle one (All I need is you)
Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental lady, gentle one

Ooh, sentimental lady

Yes, and all of the things that I said that I wanted
Come rushing by in my head when I'm with you
Fourteen joys and a will to be merry
All of the things that they say are very

Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental lady, gentle one (All I need is you)
Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental lady, gentle one (All I need is you)

All of the things that I said that I wanted
Come rushing by in my head when I'm with you
Fourteen joys and a will to be merry
All of the things that they say are very (All I need is you)

All of the things that I said that I wanted
Come rushing by in my head when I'm with you

Now baby I'm no stranger
So why do act shy
You've known me all my life just as a friend
But suddenly I know
That I'm seeing someone new
Can you feel the lover that I feel in you...

(chorus)
Yeah you're easy to love
It's good to know that we could fall
Yeah so easy to love
Well don't say no just let it fall
Yeah so easy to love
Don't say no just, let it fall...

Now baby don't be anxious
I'm gonna treat you right
Just think of all the time we've been alone
I know it's different now I'm not use to touching you
So pretend we're strangers
And do what strangers do...

(repeat chorus)

Written by Bob Welch and John Henning.

Now there is a way to say I love you
And it's said everyday by some kind of fool
But where is the way to tell her goodbye

We both can't be wrong, I must be right !

(chorus)
Hot love cold world, gonna make you cry
Hot love corld world, oh yeah
Hot love cold world, gonna make you cry
Hot love cold world, oh yeah..

Our connection was strong I thought it could last
Dreams of the future not a care for the past
But look at us now not knowing what to do
You're looking so sad I feel so cruel...

(repeat chorus)

Written by Bob Welch.

Come on now mystery train
Bring her back to me again
I want to feel her hold me tight
And never be lonely at night
Roll down your mystery track
Pass the cities all blazin' black
I'm counting hours till she comes back
Not gonna be lonely again...

(chorus)
Oh I can hear you coming
Yeah & you're carrying something
Got my baby on your mystery train

(repeat chorus)

Yeah come on now mystery train
Through the mountains blowing rain
But when you get there mystery train
It'll never be rainy again...

(repeat chorus)

Written by Bob Welch.

Friends & lovers have said it's true
There's only one thing that loves more
What I want to know, do I wait for you
Or is it me that your waiting for...

(chorus)
You made me lose my heart
You made me lose my heart
You made me lose my heart
But did you lose your heart to me

Now I wouldn't ask you to sacrifice
The way that you live your life
What I want to know would you give your heart
Ah girl I've given mine...

(repeat chorus)

Last night red lights and sirens sound,
Nine miles on a back street,
Sneakin' out of town,
Out of touch, goin' underground,
Look into the mirror;
Can see 'em bearin' down,

Long road windin',
Headlights in the dark,
Don't know where we're goin',
But it can't be too far,

Ten g's, three for you, the rest I'll keep,
No clues, no avenues,
It's a perfect scheme,
Look-out outskirts,
Hang a left at the hangin' tree,
‘Cause they say they're gonna get ya,
But they won't mess with me!

Long road burnin',
You know you can't look back,
Cause every where your turnin',
You can't escape the fact...

Yeah, they're gettin' closer now,
Step on it man you know they're gainin' ground,
Not afraid to die, until right now,
I can almost feel em' breathin',
Fear for me…

Oh, last night, murder one was in the air, huh;
Johnny didn't mean to do it,
But he was real scared,
Outlaws, runnin' hidin', who knows where,
Next time your on the outskirts,
huh, well, I'll be waitin' there.

Long road a windin'
Headlights in the dark,
Long road returnin'
Like a knife, in your heart.

I'm on the outskirts now,
Fear for me, well,
I'm on the outskirts,
Fear for me.

Have you seen that girl on the corner
I'd like to take her out of her chains
Cause if I had my way with you baby
I would be changing your life today

Your eyes got me dreaming
Your eyes got me blind
Your eyes got me hoping
That I'll be holding close tonight

Your eyes got me dreaming
Your eyes got me blind
Your eyes got me hoping
That I'll be holding close tonight

She was the same as a hundred ladies
But when my eyes looked at her I learned
That she was keeping a secret fire
And if I got real close I'd burn
And so it looked like I had to move slowly
Just like a cat at night in the trees
'Cause I was waiting for her to show me
That way that she liked her love to feel

Your eyes got me dreaming
Your eyes got me blind
Your eyes got me hoping
That I'll be holding close tonight

Your eyes got me dreaming
Your eyes got me blind
Your eyes got me hoping
That I'll be holding close tonight

Aah, ebony eyes
Aah, ebony eyes
Ebony eyes, ebony eyes

Your eyes got me dreaming
Your eyes got me blind
Your eyes got me hoping
That I'll be holding close tonight

Your eyes got me dreaming
Your eyes got me blind
Your eyes got me hoping
That I'll be holding close tonight

Oh yeah baby you made me lose my heart
Oh yeah baby you made me lose my heart...

Well hello, Carolene
It's so good just to see you
It's been quite a while
And we both may have changed
But last night I was wondering
If I'm under my track
'Cause I just got to say
Baby I want you back

I want to know
Don't keep me waiting
Don't keep me wondering
Let's do it again

I want to know
Don't Keep me waiting
Don't keep me wondering
Let's do it again

Well hello, Carolene
When you caught me crying
Late in the day
When the light turns to blue
'Cause we lived our love
In those warm afternoons
Oh I know you remember
Won't you please say you do

I want to Know
Don't Keep me waiting
Don't keep me wondering
Let's do it again

(Chorus repeats two more times)

Aaaah, Carolene
Let's do it again
Why Don't you do it again

Aaaah, Carolene
Let's do it again
Why don't we do it again

(The last verse repeats 2 more times)

Lady all night I've dreaming
Of days that you spent by my side
The best days of my life, don't you remember
We were together you & I

(chorus)
And we had dancin' in our eyes
Summer had us hypnotized
We had dancin in our eyes..we had dancin' in our eyes
We lived one day at a time
We had dancin in our eyes...

I thought that we'd live there forever
And I swore that our love had to grow
But in the summertime love means December
Will surely following blowing cold

(repeat chorus)

Now love's like a road that you travel
Without thinking what's round the bend
Like a drive in the country on Sunday
All soon it's got to end

(chorus)
We had dancin' in our eyes
We had the best days of our lives
We had dancin' in our eyes
We lived one day at a time
We had dancin' in our eyes...

Written by Bob Welch.

Think about the place behind your eyes
Then think about the darkness, when you turn out the lights
Think about the space between the notes
Well that's the dancashiva
Don't ask me where it goes

(chorus)
Rollin' rollin'
Shifting like the sands
Rollin' rollin'
Twisting in the wind
Never looking back again...

Find the darkest night that you can find
And see if you can read between the lines
Cause in between your memories
Desires & your dreams, you'll find the dancashiva naturally

(repeat chorus)

Go to the seashore one fine day
Pretend that you're a bubble on a wave
Ocean keeps on going
bubble bound to break
Leaving dansachiva in the wake

(repeat chorus)

Written by Bob Welch.

Out of the shadows & in to the sun
Didn't think it could happen to me
Never thoughtr I'd be a fool in love
Ah girl you've been changing me

(chorus)
You made me lose my heart
You made me lose my heart
You made me lose my heart
But did you lose your heart to me...

Now I wouldn't ask you to sacrifice
The way that you live your life
All that I'd ask is you give your heart
Ah girl I've given mine

(chorus)
You made me lose my heart
You made me lose my heart
But the thing that I've got to know is
Did you lose your heart to me ?

Now friends & lovers have said it's true
There's always one think that loves more
So I want to know do I wait for you
Or is it me that your waiting for

(repeat chorus)

You don't know what she means to me
She's a heart that beats close to me
And gettin' back to the way I feel
Her honest word is my only real thing
When she comes to me then I feel fine
And I'm not afraid but so gratified
Emerald eyes is a mystery
Starin' through to the heart of me
Find, emerald eyes in the night
Gleamin' shiny and bright
As if covered with silver
She's still a mystery to me
The way she sails away slow
Makes your day to day life easy
Emerald eyes is a mystery
She's my place of serenity
And gettin' back to the way I feel
Her honest word is my only real thing
Only an honest word, maybe a sky report
Could be a weather bird it was so close to me
Emerald eyes is a mystery
She's my place of serenity

You got to believe
I'm gonna be with you baby
In everything you've done
Even though you've stopped the sun from shining
Well I've tried my best, but it may not be enough
And times have been so tough, that I can't tell you
What can you say to accuse me
When you know I'm not to blame
You know you're gonna use me
I guess I'll always feel the same
Oh, when will we be together
In this crazy world we're in
Is it really such a sin to love you
Well I've tried my best, but it may not be enough
And times have been so tough that I can't tell you

You've got a sweet, sweet way
You know you'll always be the only one
And if you'll let me say
You'll never be a lonely one
Well you've just got something
Makes a girl start feeling crazy
And I'll do anything if you'll let me be your baby
Even when everybody tells me
I'm just being a fool
Something inside says I've got to have you
And I can't play by the rules
Ooh baby baby tell me there's a chance for me
'Cos I'm crazy about you and I know this is love for me
Well you just got something
Makes a girl start feeling crazy
And I'll do anything if you'll let me be your baby

It's the same kind of story
That seems to come down from long ago
Two friends having coffee together
When something flies by their window
It might be out on that lawn
Which is wide, at least half of a playing field
Because there's no explaining what your imagination
Can make you see and feel
Seems like a dream
They got me hypnotized
Now it's not a meaningless question
To ask if they've been and gone
I remember a talk about North
Carolina and a strange, strange pond
You see the sides were like glass
In the thick of a forest without a road
And if any man's ever made that land
Then I think it would've showed
Seems like a dream
They got me hypnotized
They say there's a place down in Mexico
Where a man can fly over mountains and hills
And he don't need an airplane or some kind of engine
And he never will
Now you know it's a meaningless question
To ask if those stories are right
'Cause what matters most if the feeling
You get when you're hypnotized
Seems like a dream
They got me hypnotized

I like the way the light falls today
Slow, too lazy for anything
I see boats that go sailin' past me (But not too fast)
You know, I wish this day could keep on goin' and last forever
Please don't fool around with my happiness
I like the way the light falls today
Please just let it stay that way
Slow, easy, forever

For a little peace in any season
I'd give up anything but your love
I don't want to trade, tryin' to be happy
That's only playin' anyway
But if I dream about it, it makes me wonder
For every good thing, must you get bad
But I won't worry, and if I'm living on borrowed time
I'm gonna keep on the way I'm going
For every crime, there's retribution
And every vally has a mountainside
No, I don't like to trade just to be happy
That kind of deal won't turn out right
See it ain't good to stare inside yourself too long
For every true thing theree's one more lie
But I won't worry 'cause if I'm living on borrowed time
I'll just try to keep on the way I'm going

Gonna stay out of New York
There's something there that drives me crazy
Gonna stay out of New York
There's something there that bleeds me dry
It gets so bad that I stop breathin'
And then the sun don't wanna shine
There's something wrong with New York
It's a prison without walls
No I won't go back there
I just don't like that place at all
You might call it sophistication
But I say time is runnin' out
I won't go back to New York
There's a darkness all around
No, I just can't handle it
You know that place is gettin' me down
You can say it's sophistication
But I say time is runnin' out

The swamp is getting deeper all the time
And the faces that I see don't seem to shine
Now there's too much Warhol hanging off the wall
And the mystery that there used to be is gone
Let me go
Miles away
Let me ride
Just miles away
Don't wanna know
I'm not gonna miss it much
Gonna be drivin' once again
Don Juan goes up in a cloud of smoke
And all those Hare Krishnas turned out to be a joke
And it's restless, restless, restless all the time
Slidin' up and down the surface of this life
Now I know that I can't say what's black and white
But if I could fly I think I'd try tonight
