Freedom - keep walkin'
Keep on your toesand don't stop talkin' 'bout
Freedom - get goin'
Lots to be learned and lots to be knowin' 'bout
People - gotta reach 'em
Sit 'em right down and then you gotta teach 'em 'bout
Freedom - gotta win it
Gotta put yourself smack dab in it

Hey tomorrow
Now don't you go away
'Cause freedom
Just might come your way

Freedom - keep tryin'
People stay alive and people keep dyin' for
Freedom - so don't lose it
Ya gotta understand ya just can't abuse it
Freedom - get movin'
Never gonna stop till everybody's groovin' on
Love for - one another
Callin' some friend and callin' some brother

Hey tomorrow
You're not so far away
Mother freedom
we'll know you well someday

Baby, I'm-a want you
Baby, I'm-a need you
You the only one I care enough to hurt about
Maybe I'm-a crazy
But I just can't live without...

Your lovin' and affection
Givin' me direction
Like a guiding light to help me through a darkest hour
Lately I'm a-prayin'
That you'll always be a-stayin' beside me

Used to be my life was just emotions passing by
Feeling all the while and never really knowing why...

Lately I'm a-prayin'
That you'll always be a-stayin' beside me.

Used to be my life was just emotions passing by
Then you came along and made me laugh
And made me cry...
You taught me why...

Baby, I'm-a want you
Baby, I'm-a need you

Oh, it took so long to find you, baby

Baby, I'm-a want you
Baby, I'm-a need you

I told you before, don't you hear what I say?
I won't take it no more, no more makin' me stay
Down on my knees, you know I'm down on my knees, yeah
Yes, I've been down on my knees
But I'm through beggin' please
I won't get back on my knees

Nobody knows what your puttin me through
Nobody knows if it's worth it for you
Nobody sees, you got me down on my knees
Well I've been down on my knees
And I'm through beggin' please
Don't put me back on my knees

You know how I always loved you
Never placed myself above you

Don't let me go, if I wish that I could
Don't tell me no, if I wish that you would
Down on my knees, you know I'm down on my knees
Well I've been down on my knees
But I'm through beggin' please
Don't put me back on my knees

You sheltered me from harm
Kept me warm, Kept me warm
You gave my life to me
Set me free, Set me free
The finest years I ever knew,
We're all the years I had with you

And I will give everything I own,
I'll give my life, my heart, my home
I will give everything I own
Just to have you back again.

You taught me how to love,
What its all, all above
You never said too much
But still you showed the way
In my new, I'm watching you
Nobody else will ever know
The part of me that can't let go

I will give anything I own
I'll give up my life, my heart, my home
I will give everything I own
Just to have you back again

Is there someone you know
You're loving them so
But taking them all for-granted
You may lose them one day
Someone takes them away
And they don't hear the words you long to say

I would give anything I own,
I'll give up my life, my heart, my home,
I will give everthing I own
Just to have you back again
Just to touch you once again

You know that lately people ask what I'm
Doin' sittin' home alone all by myself
They know I'm used to bein' out and about and they
Don't know just what's become of myself
They say the swinger can't swing it no more
But they don't know what I'm hidin' behind my door
Because you know I know I've never known nobody
Nobody like you... Nobody to do what you do
And when you're leavin' poor me all alone
You got me sittin' here sufferin' by my telephone
I been left... I been right
And when I'm wrong I know you're gonna make me
See the light
Because you know I know I've never known nobody
Nobody like you... Nobody like you.
White other people dancin' romancin' and chancin'
Their lives every saturday night
Watchin' TV drinkin' tea her and me
And maybe even have us a fight
'Cause an argument can be outta sight
When you love to argue and you know how to fight
I don't care about soul
I don't even care about no rock and roll
You know I don't care about nothin'
Nobody... Nobody but you.

I found her diary underneath a tree.
and started reading about me
The words she's written took me by surpise
you'd never read them in her eyes.
They said that she had found the love she waited for.
Wouldn't you know it, she wouldn't show it.

When she confronted with the writing there,
simply pretended not to care.
I passed it off as just in keeping with
her total disconcerting air
and though she tried to hide
the love that she denied,
wouldn't you know it, she wouldn't show it.

And as I go through my life, I will give to her my wife
all the sweet things that I can find.

I found her diary underneath a tree.
and started reading about me.
The words began stick and tears to flow.
Her meaning now was clear to see.
The love she'd waited for was someone else not me
Wouldn't you know it, she wouldn't show it.

and as I go through my life, I will wish for her his wife
all the sweet things that she can find
all the sweet things they can find

I see her walking in the velvet moonlight
But then she hides behind the clock of midnight
And as I look to see her face
She disappears without a trace...

Sometimes I find myself in endless wandering
When I awaken in the misty morning
And I must look to find my way
As I await the end of day.
Dream Lady... Dream Lady...

And I await the end of day
Till nighttime comes again to stay
Dream lady... Dream Lady... Dream Lady...

Daughter - don't give your love to the first man you see.
Just bide your time so your heart will be free to find the one,
Girl you don't have to run.

Daughter - don't think that love has gone out of style,
Just some folks every once in a while don't understand
How this world was planned.

Now I know you're wondering how
You know when the real thing is comin' your way,
When you live for him and not you
You'll know that it's truly comin' to stay.

Daughter - I know it's hard to make yourself wait,
But when the right man comes it's never too late
So don't you cry ,
He'll be here by and by... and steal your heart away.

First time it's rained since I came to the city
Seemed like a good time to write
And even now as I look out my window
Rain clouds are chasing the light

The play games of magic in the night...

Lately I've stayed with the lady from Denver
She said to come by for awhile
Took me on down to her place by the river
Carried me off on her smile

We play games of magic all the while...

I hope this letter finds you well
I wrote to tell you 'bout my change of plans
I won't be home tomorrow night
I'll be alright I hope you'll understand

All of my life I've been looking for somethin'
But I guess you know me by now
Searching for secrets and being the eternal child
Playing games of magic all the while.

Sure gets funny thinkin' 'bout money
Makin' my daily bread,
The more you make, the more they take
You never seem to get ahead,
You break your backs just to pay your tax
Then you don't like the way that it's spent,
Somewhere back we jumped the track
This isn't what the governmeant...

Bet my now I've made a hundred thou
But I ain't saved a dime,
The IRS came out best
They got my money every time,

It caØn't be fair when the millionaire
Never has to give them a cent,
Sad to say we've lost the way
This isn't what the governmeant ...

Then the war , don't know what for
Somebody said it had to be fought,
I'se sposed to go but I said no
'Cause I'se afraid I might get shot,
but here I am on my hands and knees
scrubbin' in my dungarees
I got burned but I finally learned
This isn't what the governmeant

Just like yesterday
You come upon my mind and take it away...
Just like at the time
The things we did made our hearts skip away
Down on my knees I prayed
Kind woman don't go astray
When it seems at times
I've got my mind and heart all straight away...
Just when you've become
A mem'ry of the past and fade away
I see your face and think of all
Of all that we had
With of the things that you brought me
Now was it so bad
... Makes me wonder...
Just like yesterday
You come upon my mind and take it away.

I don't love you
I just want you
If I don't have you never be the same
I don't love you, but girl you'd drive a man
Insane

I don't love you
But I need you
I don't even want to know your name
Every single minute you know is causing me
Great pain
I don't come from 'cross the RR tracks
I don't need no little body hangin' off my back
If you got plans for me
You'd better start singin' the blues.

Who draws the crowd and plays so loud, baby it's the guitar man
Who's gonna steal the show, you know baby it's the guitar man
He can make you love, he can make you cry
He will bring you down then he'll get you high
Somethin' keeps him goin' miles and miles a day
To find another place to play.

Night after night who treats you right, baby it's the guitar man
Who's on the radio, you go listen to the guitar man
Then he comes to town and you see his face
And you think you might like to take his place
Somethin' keeps him driftin' miles and miles away
Searchin' for the songs to play.

Then you listen to the music and you like to stay along
You want to get the meaning out of each and every song
Then you find yourself a message and some words
To call your own and take them home.

He can make you love, he can get you high
He will bring you down then he'll make you cry
Somethin' keeps him movin' but no one seems to know
What it is that makes him go.

Then the lights begin to flicker and the sound is getting dim
The voice begins to falter and the crowds are getting thin
But he never seems to notice he's just got to find
Another place to play, Anyway Got to play, anyway Got to play

And Aubrey was her name,
A not so very ordinary girl or name
But who's to blame
For a love that wouldn't bloom
For the hearts
That never played in tune,
Like a lovely melody
That everyone can sing
Take away the words that rhyme
It doesn't mean a thing

And Aubrey was her name
We tripped the light
And danced together to the moon,
But where was June.
No it never came around.
If it did
It never made a sound,
Maybe I was absent
Or was listening too fast,
Catching all the words,
But then the meaning going past,
But god I miss the girl,
And I'd go a thousand times
Around the world
Just to be closer the her than to me.

And Aubrey was her name,
I never knew her,
But I loved her just the same,
I loved her name.
Wish that I had found the way
And the reasons
That would make her stay.
I have learned to lead a life apart
From all the rest.
If I can't have the one I want ,
I'll do without the best.
But how I miss the girl
And I'd go a million times
Around the world
Just to say she had been mine
For a day.

You sheltered me from harm.
You kept me warm.
You kept me warm.
You gave my life to me.
You set me free.
You set me free.
The finest years I ever knew.
Were all the ones I spent with you.
I would give anything I own. Give up my life and my heart, my home.
I would give everything I own, just to have you back again.
You taught me how to love.
And what it's of, what it's of.
You never said too much but still you showed the way.
And so I knew, from watching you.
Nobody else can ever know.
The part of me that can't let go.
I would give anything I own. Give up my life and my heart, my home.
I would give everything I own, just to have you back again.
Just to touch you once again.
Is there someone you know, you're loving them so but taking them all for granted.
You may lose them one day. Someone takes them away and they'll never hear the words you have to say.
I would give anything I own. Give up my life and my heart, my home.
I would give everything I own, just to have you back again.
Everything I own. My life, my heart, my home.
I'd give everything I own. My life, my heart, my home.
Every little thing.
Just to have you back again.
Just to hold you.

Hey, have you ever tried
really reaching out for the other side
I'm may be climbing on rainbows but baby, here goes.
Dreams, they're for those who sleep, life is for us to keep
and if you're wondering what this song is leading to
I want to make it with you
I really think that we can make it girl.
Ooooh! you don't know me well
and every little thing only time will tell
if you believe the things I do and we'll see it through.
Life can be short or long, love can be right or wrong
and if i choose the one I'd like to help me through
I'll like to make it with you
I really think that we can make it girl.

Baby you know that, dreams they're for those who sleep
life is for us to keep
and if i choose the one I'd like to help me through
I'll like to make it with you
I really think that we can make it girl.

I look into my morning mirror
And it reveals some things to me that I had not been able to see
I saw someone that I'm not sure I want to be
An empty lonely face was starin' back at me

All and all, I would have to say
It's been a rather dismal day

The afternoon was slow in coming
I drug myself outside the people that I knew would be there
And though they walked along pretending not to care
I knew behind my back they'd point and laugh and stare

And now the evening shadow's falling
I guess it's best I lay my hopes to rest for noone's calling my name
I sit and wait behind a door that's never knocked on
I live in silence like my phone that's never talked on

I know the times the times are hard to bear
It's hard to find someone to really care
But before I went down and out
Here's what I used to think about, think about:

London Bridge is always fallin' down,
But there it stood within the heart of town
Reminding everyone of life behind and life to come

The changes taking place are everywhere
The centuries past have nothing to compare
Where they stand, where they trip and fall
Watch the writing on the wall, on the wall

London Bridge is fallin' down at last,
And so another memory of the past
Has fell beneath the blade, but soon the dead may be repaid

I know things just can't evolve for all eternity
The thoughts will leave, will never die, and now so you can see

London Bridge is finally fallin' down,
It packed it up and shipped it outta town
And though the horror's gone, the memory will linger on
London Bridge is finally fallin' down,
It used to stand within the heart of town
Reminding everyone of life behind and life to come
London Bridge is finally fallin' down.....

Take me anyway you want me
'Cause I need your love to see me through
You can make me anyway you want me
That's all that I can offer you
I have tried so hard to please you
But I just can't seem to reach you

Tried, tried a little kindness
Every night and day like I knew I should
But you can take me, yes and you can leave me
But I always stayed, and you knew I would
Come on, come on closer now
I will get to you somehow

Come on, come on closer now
I will get to you somehow
But you got to show me how
Please, please baby, please
Please, baby show me the way to your heart

You got to take me anyway you want me
Or take me just, just the way I am
Take me, or you can make me

You have taken the heart of me
And left just a part of me,
And look, look, look what you've done.
Well, you took all the best of me,
So come get the rest of me,
And look back, finish what you've begun.

There is some one you ought to meet;
It's me, Mister Incomplete.
Look, at what I've become.
For it's due to the lack of you
That I'm now only half of two.
Look back, finish what you've begun.

Come and sit by my side
Where there's nothing to hide.
You will try to decide what you needed;
But from where I stand today,
I can't think of the way
Or the words that I might say
That will change your mind and make you stay.
Oh, no, not for all the times I've pleaded.

Look, look, look what you've done.
You have taken the best of me,
So come get the rest of me,
And look back; finish what you've begun.
I'll be done.
