Yours Is No Disgrace
Anderson/Squire/Howe/Kaye/Bruford

Yesterday a morning came, a smile upon your face.
Caesar's palace, morning glory, silly human race,
On a sailing ship to nowhere, leaving any place,
If the summer changed to winter, yours is no disgrace.

Battleships confide in me and tell me where you are,
Shining, flying, purple wolfhound, show me where you are,
Lost in summer, born in winter, travel very far,
Lost in losing circumstances, that's just where you are.

Yesterday a morning came, a smile upon your face.
Caesar's palace, morning glory, silly human race,
On a sailing ship to nowhere, leaving any place,
If the summer changed to winter, yours is no,
Yours is no disgrace.
Yours is no disgrace.
Yours is no disgrace.

Death defying, mutilated armies scatter the earth,
Crawling out of dirty holes, their morals, their morals disappear.

You know I love you
I can't be without you
When I'm alone, I still feel this way about you
Everything's clear
Here is here
And everything is as it appears to be so

Here am I dreaming
I stand by myself
Look and it's easy to see
That I'm not the only one reaching
For a new kind of wealth
Reaching with nothing to hide
And you by my side

You know we love you
We can't be without you
When we're at home, we still feel this way about you
Everything's clear
Here is here
And everything is as it appears to be so

Here we are dreaming
We stand by ourselves
Look and it's easy to see
That we're not the only ones reaching
For a new kind of wealth
Reaching with nothing to hide
And you on our side

You know I love you

When I'm alone, I still feel this way about you

Look and it's easy to see

Look and it's easy to see
That we're not the only ones reaching
For a new kind of wealth
Reaching with nothing to hide
And you on our side

Why is there you,
When there are few,
People making me feel good.
Why is there me,
When air is free,
Some I can see better than I should,
There's only us,
Simply because,
Thinking of us makes us both happy
I think of you everyway, yesterday and today,
I think of things we do all the way everyday
Stand in the sea
Sing songs for me,
Sing happily making me feel good,
Watching your eyes,
Feeling your sighs,
Saying goodbyes better than I could,
There's only us,
Simply because,
Thinking of us makes us both happy
I think of you everyway yesterday and today,
I think of nothing but you things we do, things we do.

In the morning when you rise,
Do you open up your eyes, see what I see?
Do you see the same things ev'ry day?

Do you think of a way to start the day
Getting things in proportion?
Spread the news and help the world go 'round.

Have you heard of a time that will help us get it together again?
Have you heard of the word that will stop us going wrong?
Well, the time is near the word you'll hear
When you get things in perspective.
Spread the news and help the word go round.


There's a time and the time is now and it's right for me,
It's right for me, and the time is now.
There's a word and the word is love and it's right for me,
It's right for me, and the word is love.


Have you heard of a time that will help get it together again?

It's right for me, and the time is now.
There's a word and the word is love and it's right for me,
It's right for me, and the word is love.

And in a time that's closer, life will be even older then.
Souls will be complicated, life will be consummated then.
Hearts will be brought together soon in our minds forever then.
As long as we see there's only us, who can change it;
Only us to rearrange it at the start of a new kind of day.
And in a time that's closer, life will be even bolder then.


Love is the only answer, hate is the root of cancer then.
Truth is just for the being and is the sight for seeing then.
Thoughts will be thought together soon in our minds forever then.
As long as we see there's only us, who can change it;
Only us to rearrange it at the start of a new kind of day.
And in a time that's closer, life will be even bolder then.
Love is the only answer, hate is the root of cancer then.
Truth is just for the being and is the sight for seeing then.

The Prophet
Anderson/Squire

Long ago a tall man told a tale of yesterday,
Searching for the truth to life and not for just the way.
Finding pleasure from the sounds his ears, they did obey;
In his life a moment's pleasure, never to delay.


He was lost and in his trust he found a new meaning;
Seeing things in diff'rent lights his life was redeeming.


Words of peace would fill his mind and change his way of life;
Peaceful meetings with his heart have made him more alive.
Meeting wise old women on the cliffs of life itself;
Asking more for first meaning, more for just himself.

Soon we'll be as he proclaimed in a new way of living;
Take the things you need in life but remember the giving.


Prophesy within your mind and you will work it out;
Prophesy that some will die but only those who doubt.
Then you'll never worry as somtimes you used to do;
Just remember when you're gone there's someone after you, you.

She brings the sunshine to a rainy afternoon
She puts the sweetness
in and stirs it with a spoon,
She watches for my moods
and never brings me down
She puts the sweetness in all around
She knows just what to say
to make me feel so good inside
And when I'm all alone
I feel I don't want to hide
Today she bought me in and
told me where she'd been
She put my mind at rest
and put the sweetness in
I'll ask her for some time to go and look around
She puts the sweetness in all around
She knows just what to say
to make a sunny day
And when I'm all alone
I really don't feel that way.
Tell me how would you feel
with no world of your own
And nobody to hold, I just can't see the way
I'm so glad it's today
and you're here, you're here.

Sunshine is creeping in and somewhere in a field a life begins,
An egg too proud to rape the beginning of the shape of things to come,
That start the run, life has begun, fly fast the gun.
The Mother flew too late and life within the egg was left to fate,
Not really knowing how the world outside would take it when it came,
And life's the same for things we aim, are we to blame?
Don't doubt the fact there's life within you,
Yesterday's endings will tomorrow life give you,
All that dies, dies for a reason,
To put its strength into the Season,
Survival, Survival,
They take away and they give their life as they live,
The living right to live, it's all that we need to show
The livings right to know.
The egg breaks all is out, the crawling bird begins to scream and shout,
Where is the parent bird, a loneliness arose and heard its name-
Ring in for live's begin, survival win, survival's sin.
So soon the evening comes with it runs the aching
Fear of hate could Someone still remain who thinks he
Still could gain by escaping fate? it's much too late,
Don't underrate, appreciate.
And we're all going
And we're all going
And we're all going somewhere!

Sister Bluebird flying high above,
Shine your wings forward to the sun.
Hide the myst'ries of life on your way.
Though you've seen them, please don't say a word.
What you don't know, I have never heard.

Starship Trooper, go sailing on by,
Catch my soul, catch the very light.
Hide the moment from my eager eye.
Though you've seen them, please don't tell a soul.
What you can't see, can't be very whole.

Speak to me of summer, long winters longer than time can remember,
The setting up of other roads, to travel on in old accustomed ways.
I still remember the talks by the water, the proud sons and daughter that,
Knew the knowledge of the land, that spoke to me in sweet accustomed ways.

Mother life, hold firmly on to me.
Catch my knowledge higher than the day.
Lose as much as only you can show.
Though you've seen them, please don't say a word.
What I don't know, I have never shared.

II. Disillusion
Squire

Loneliness is a pow'r that we possess to give or take away forever.
All I know can be shown by your acceptance of the facts there shown before you.
Take what I say in a diff'rent way and it's easy to say
that this is all confusion.
As I see a new day in me, I can also show it you and you may follow.

Speak to me of summer, long winters longer than time can remember,
The setting up of other roads, to travel on in old accustomed ways.
I still remember the talks by the water, the proud sons and daughter that,
Knew the knowledge of the land, spoke to me in sweet accustomed ways.

Could be
Who knows?
There something due any day
I will know right away
Soon as it shows

It may come cannon-ballin* down from the sky
Gleam in its eye
Bright as a rose
Who knows?

It*s only just out of reach
Down a block, on the beach
Under a tree
I got a feeling there*s a miracle due
Gotta come through
Coming to me

Could it be
Yes it could
Something*s coming
Something good
If I can wait

Something*s coming
I don*t know what it is
But it is
Going to be great

With a click
With a shock
Bell will jingle
Door will knock
Open the latch

Something*s coming

But it is
Going to be great

Around the corner
A-whistlin* down the river
Come on deliver

Silently falling down
Bringing hope of future to the children
Fills the air with a magic sound
Giving light to sight that cannot see
Hopefully, hopefully

Don't believe in miracles
But I do believe in love
Don't advise you to stick to rules
But there ain't no need to push and shove
Or in the end you'll reflect the pool
Reaching for the sky above

I know there's something
But I don't know how long
It's taking in coming
But I still sing the song
All of the pieces fit
But the puzzle carries on

Silently circling around
Giving scope to our imagination
Stills the sea, restores the crown
Breathing life to life that could not be
Hopefully, eventually

Silently falling
Falling down, down, down

Silently falling down
Bringing hope of future to the children
Fills the air with a magic sound
Giving light to sight that cannot see

Don't believe in miracles

Don't advise you to stick to rules
But there ain't no need to push and shove

Silently falling
Falling down, down, down

Sing, bird of prey;
Beauty begins at the foot of you. Do you believe the manner?
Gold stainless nail,
Torn through the distance of man
As they regard the summit.

Even Siberia goes through the motions.
Hold out and hold up;
Hold down the window.

Outbound, river,
Hold out the morning that comes into view.
Bluetail, tailfly.
River running right on over my head.

How does she sing?
Who holds the ring? And ring and you will find me coming.
Cold reigning king,
Hold all the secrets from you
As they produce the movement.

Even Siberia goes through the motions.
Hold out and hold up;
Hold down the window.

Outbound, river,
Hold out the morning that comes into view.
Bluetail, tailfly.
River running right over the outboard, river,
Bluetail, tailfly,
Luther, in time.
Dood'ndoodit, dah, d't-d't-dah.

Hold down the window;
Hold out the morning that comes into view.
Warm side, the tower;
Green leaves reveal the heart spoken Khatru.

Gold stainless nail,
torn through the distance of man as they regard the summit.
Cold reigning king,
Shelter the women that sing
As they produce the movement.
River running right on over my head


Outboard, river.

Bluetail, tailfly,
Luther, in time,
Suntower, asking,
Cover, lover,
June cast, moon fast,
As one changes,
Heart gold, leaver,
Soul mark, mover,
Christian, changer,
Called out, saviour,
Moon gate, climber,
Turn round, glider.

I see the cold mist in the night
And watch the hills roll out of sight.
I watch in ev'ry single way,
Inside out, outside in, ev'ry day.

The sun can warm the coldest dawn
And move the movement on the lawn.
I learn in ev'ry single day,
Inside out, outside in, ev'ry way.

And there you are,
Making it out but you're sure that it is a star,
And all you see
Is an illusion shining out in front of me,
And then you'll say
Even in time we shall control the day,
When what you'll see
Deep inside base controlling you and me.

And one peculiar point I see,
As one of many ones of me.
As truth is gathered, I rearrange,
Inside out, outside in, inside out, outside in,
Perpetual change.

And there you are,
Saying we have the moon, so now the stars,
When all you see
Is near disaster gazing down on you and me,
And there you're standing,
Saying we have the whole world in our hands,
When all you'll see,
Deep inside the world's controlling you and me.

You'll see perpetual change.
You'll see perpetual change.

And there you are,
Making it pit but you're sure that it is a star,
And all you see
It's an illusion shining out in front of me,
And then you'll say
Even in time we shall control the day,
When all you see
Deep inside base controlling you and me.

As mist and sun are both the same,
We look on as pawns of their game.
They move to testify the day,
Inside out, outside in, inside out, outside in,
All of the way.
Ah, Ah.

In the shadows of the fading light
Nothing in sight, nothing in mind
Nothing gained when you're feeling restrained
The more you look, the more you'll find
Take a bite from the apple of life's
Not as bad, as it's right, as it's right
And I think you could be
Lucky tonight

By the fates that drive us on
Upon the sea we swiftly sail
In the wake of the carnival trail
The more we try, the less we fail
You and I, the more we strive
In our search for truth, love
And honesty could be
Lucky tonight

From the trees by the silvery sands
To the ice of the golden midnight lands
Runs a thread of the tears that are shed
With laughter on the other hand
Keeping up with the plans and the schemes
Chasing dreams, hard to tell what it means
But I think we could be
Lucky tonight

In the shadows of the fading light
Nothing in sight, nothing in mind
Nothing gained when you're feeling restrained
The more you look, the more you'll find
Take a bite from the apple of life's
Not as bad, as it's right, as it's right
And I think you could be
Lucky tonight

By the fates that drive us on
Upon the sea we swiftly sail
In the wake of the carnival trail
The more we try, the less we fail
You and I, the more we strive
In our search for truth, love
And honesty could be
Lucky tonight

From the trees by the silvery sands
To the ice of the golden midnight lands
Runs a thread of the tears that are shed
With laughter on the other hand
Keeping up with the plans and the schemes
Chasing dreams, hard to tell what it means
But I think we could be
Lucky tonight

Looking around me
There's not too much in life I miss
Things that I can't see
I'll touch and I'll feel then I'll kiss
Then I saw you standing there
With a smile I couldn't share
Just looking around, everywhere.
Tunes that I can't hear,
Would take me for a while my smile
Fares that are too dear
I'd rather walk out another smile
Then I heard a tune so right
It was in the light of night
Just listening around everywhere
All the things I've wanted to do
Take so much time to get around to you
Just reach out and catch and hold on
Leaving trails of dust and lust never even lying or trying
Keep on moving and never dying.
Smiles that I don't see
I'll make them up as I go on
Laughs that just can't be
I'll make and laugh at everyone
Then I saw you in your place
With a laugh upon your face
Just looking around everywhere
Looking around with my feet on the ground full of words and
Of sound bringing smiles all around
Satisfy me with your words that can be full of sound and I'll
See I'm just looking around.

You can feel it coming
With the morning light
And you know the feeling's
Gonna make you feel all right

Almost close enough to
Hold out your hand
Span the distance, store resistance
To attack is to retreat
All you've got to do is
Hold out your hand
For the treasures of the universe
Are lying at your feet

You can hide it, lose it
But it's always found
You can laugh it off
But it always comes back on you, so true

True is true enough to
Hold out your hand
Forward motion, life promotion
To reverse is to repeat
All you've got to do is
Hold out your hand
For the treasures of the universe
Are lying at your feet

Hold out your hand
Span the distance, store resistance
To attack is to retreat
Almost close enough to
Hold out your hand

Aaaaahhh
Harold Land with a wave of his hand,
Said goodbye to all that,
He paid his bills, stopped the Milk, then put on his hat,
He tried to say his last farewells as quickly as he could,
Promising that he would return, but doubted that he would,
Doubted that he would.

Now he's marching soldiers in the rain
As on to war they rode.
A long thin line of human mind,
Damnation as their load!
In the mud in coldness dark he'd shiver out his fear,
What disappointing sights he'd seen instead of one's so dear
instead of one's so dear

Going home, He's going home to the land he loved so well,
Going home, he fought for two whole years he never fell,
He's going home, He's going home.
Harold Land with a wave of his hand stood sadly on the stage,
Clutching red ribbons from a badge but he didn't look his age,
Only two years had passed between his leaving home and back,
He had lost his love and youth while leading the attack
Leading the attack

In conversation it could be said,
Well after war your heart is dead,
Well it's not hard to understand,
There is no heart in Harold Land.

Look at the sad goodbyes
Every day's a killing time
Sun coming up outside
No men are born this time
Saturday's child stays home
Nothing to say so long
Well Well Well another day
Well Well well another day.

Grocery store ten bucks
Just making change for plastic cherries
Up in a tree a Jay Bird looking at me
No word
Everyone looks but can't see.
We can't be ignored so easily
Well Well Well another day
Well Well Well another day.

Soft within the wayward things
Like ecstasy, the sound of trees,
Most anything, what a baby sees

Beautiful face all right
Many a place out of sight
Old woman there with red shoes
Four million balloons all used
Drive over hills forget your fear
Getting it out of second gear
Well Well Well another day
Well Well Well another day.

When I'm walking beside her,
People tell me I'm lucky
Yes I know I'm a lucky guy

I was lonely without her

She does for me yeah
And you know the things she does
She does for me

Just to know that she loves me

'Cause I know love will never die

Is there anything you think you should know
Is there anything before I go?

Dear Father [Repeat]
I'm hungry, I'm cold
Feeling terribly old
I don't think I can see
I'm not feeling good like I think I should

They're on their own, needing a face, a place,
Hope and mind, a home

I don't think I can see

I. The Solid Time Of Change

A seasoned witch could call you from the depths of your disgrace,
And rearrange your liver to the solid mental grace,
And achieve it all with music that came quickly from afar,
Then taste the fruit of man recorded losing all against the hour.
And assessing points to nowhere, leading ev'ry single one.
A dewdrop can exalt us like the music of the sun,
And take away the plain in which we move,
And choose the course you're running.

Down at the edge, round by the corner,
Not right away, not right away.
Close to the edge, down by a river,
Not right away, not right away.

Crossed the line around the changes of the summer,
Reaching out to call the color of the sky.
Passed around a moment clothed in mornings faster than we see.
Getting over all the time I had to worry,
Leaving all the changes far from far behind.
We relieve the tension only to find out the master's name.

Down at the end, round by the corner.
Close to the edge, just by a river.
Seasons will pass you by.
I get up, I get down.
Now that it's all over and done,
Now that you find, now that you're whole.

II. Total Mass Retain

My eyes convinced, eclipsed with the younger moon attained with love.
It changed as almost strained amidst clear manna from above.
I crucified my hate and held the word within my hand.
There's you, the time, the logic, or the reasons we don't understand.

Sad courage claimed the victims standing still for all to see,
As armoured movers took approached to overlook the sea.
There since the cord, the license, or the reasons we understood will be.

Down at the edge, close by a river.
Close to the edge, round by the corner.
Close to the end, down by the corner.
Down at the edge, round by the river.

Sudden problems shouldn't take away the startled memory.
All in all, the journey takes you all the way.
As apart from any reality that you've ever seen and known.
Guessing problems only to deceive the mention,
Passing paths that climb halfway into the void.
As we cross from side to side, we hear the total mass retain.

Down at the edge, round by the corner.
Close to the end, down by a river.
Seasons will pass you by.
I get up, I get down.

III. I Get Up, I Get Down

In her white lace, you could clearly see the lady sadly looking.
Saying that she'd take the blame
For the crucifixion of her own domain. I get up,
I get down,
I get up,
I get down.

Two million people barely satisfy.
Two hundred women watch one woman cry, too late.
The eyes of honesty can achieve.
How many millions do we deceive each day?
I get up, I get down.
I get up, I get down.

In charge of who is there in charge of me.
Do I look on blindly and say I see the way?
The truth is written all along the page.
How old will I be before I come of age for you?
I get up, I get down.
I get up, I get down.
I get up, I get down.

IV. Seasons Of Man

The time between the notes relates the color to the scenes.
A constant vogue of triumphs dislocate man, so it seems.
And space between the focus shape ascend knowledge of love.
As song and chance develop time, lost social temp'rance rules above.

Then according to the man who showed his outstretched arm to space,
He turned around and pointed, revealing all the human race.
I shook my head and smiled a whisper, knowing all about the place.
On the hill we viewed the silence of the valley,
Called to witness cycles only of the past.
And we reach all this with movements in between the said remark.

Close to the edge, down by the river.
Down at the end, round by the corner.
Seasons will pass you by,
Now that it's all over and done,
Called to the seed, right to the sun.
Now that you find, now that you're whole.
Seasons will pass you by,
I get up, I get down.
I get up, I get down.
I get up, I get down.
I get up.

I once knew a sweet young girl;
Her body was her world and love,
Her laughter was as happiness is.
Of all the times I treasure this.
And on a day we will remember,
On a clear day we will love forever.


I once knew a sweet young dream,
That if life itself were all we had
Then who are we to ask for more;
Let's not be sad, let's all be sure.
And on a day we will remember,
On a clear day we'll all be together,
Together.

Ahhhhh Ahhhhh Ahhhh
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo
Di di dit
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo
Di di di di

Sparkling trees of Silver foam
Cast shadows soft in winter's home
Swaying branches breaking sound
Lonely forest trembling ground.

Masquerading leaves of blue
Run circles round the morning dew
Patterns understood by you
Beyond and before

Time like gold dust springs mine down
To levels hidden underground
Say a few words to the wind
That's all that's left of winters friend.

Reaching the snow
In the days of the cold
Casting a Spell out of Ice
Now that your gone
The summe'rs too long
And it seems like the end of my life
Reaching out beyond and before

Time like gold dust springs mine down
Time like gold dust springs mine down

Ahhhhh Ahhhhh Ahhhh
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo
Di di dit
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo
Di di di di

Sparkling trees of Silver foam
Cast shadows soft in winter's home
Swaying branches breaking sound
Lonely forest trembling ground.

Masquerading leaves of blue

Reaching the snow
In the days of the cold
Casting a Spell out of Ice
Now that your gone
The summe'rs too long
And it seems like the end of my life
Reaching out beyond and before

Time like gold dust springs mine down
Time like gold dust springs mine down

And in the ruins of the balloon
Stood a man with glasses held high,
Wandering when to do it again
Have another fly into the sky,
Somewhere flying high.


Astral traveller,
Leaving without her,
Wondering where lights go;
Leave out the body load.


Once in the air, people who dare
Get great respect in being.
(Astral traveller.)
Heavenly flight wondrous night
And all the sights worth seeing,
Just believe in.


Astral traveller,
Leaving without her,
Wondering where lights go;
Leave out the body load.

A man conceived a moment's answers to the dream.
Staying the flowers daily, sensing all the themes.
As a foundation left to create the spiral aim,
A movement regained and regarded both the same,
All complete in the sight of seeds of life with you.
Changed only for a sight of sound, the space agreed.
Between the picture of time behind the face of need,
Coming quickly to terms of all expression laid,
Emotion revealed as the ocean maid,
All complete in the sight of seeds of life with you.
Oh.


Coins and crosses


Turn round tailor, assaulting
Never know their fruitless worth;



all the mornings of the interest shown,



presenting one another to the cord,
Cords are broken,

All left dying, rediscovered



Of the door that turned round,
Locked inside the mother earth.

To close the cover, all the



interest shown,
They won't hide, hold, they won't tell you,

To turn one another, to the



sign at the time float your climb.
Watching the world, watching all of the world,
Watching us go by.

And you and I climb over the sea to the valley,
And you and I reached out for reasons to call.

II. Eclipse
Anderson/Bruford/Squire

Coming quickly to terms of all expression laid,
Emotion revealed as the ocean maid,
As a movement regained and regarded both the same,
All complete in the side of seeds of life with you.

III. The Preacher the Teacher
Anderson/Bruford/Howe/Squire

Sad preacher nailed upon the coloured door of time;
Insane teacher be there reminded of the rhyme.
There'll be no mutant enemy we shall certify;
Political ends, as sad remains, will die.
Reach out as forward tastes begin to enter you.
Ooh, ooh.

I listened hard but could not see
Life tempo change out and inside me.
The preacher trained in all to lose his name;
The teacher travels, asking to be shown the same.
In the end, we'll agree, we'll accept, we'll immortalize
That the truth of the man maturing in his eyes,
All complete in the sight of seeds of life with you.

Coming quickly to terms of all expression laid,
As a moment regained and regarded both the same,
Emotion revealed as the ocean maid,
A clearer future, morning, evening, nights with you.

IV. Apocalypse
Anderson/Bruford/Howe/Squire

And you and I climb, crossing the shapes of the morning.
And you and I reach over the sun for the river.
And you and I climb, clearer, towards the movement.
And you and I called over valleys of endless seas.

A man conceived a moment's answers to the dream.
Staying the flowers daily, sensing all the themes.
As a foundation left to create the spiral aim,
A movement regained and regarded both the same,
All complete in the sight of seeds of life with you.

A clearer future, morning, evening, nights with you.

IV. Apocalypse
Anderson/Bruford/Howe/Squire

And you and I climb, crossing the shapes of the morning.
And you and I reach over the sun for the river.
And you and I climb, clearer, towards the movement.
And you and I called over valleys of endless seas.

Let us be lovers; we'll marry our fortunes together
I've got some real estate in my bag
So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner's pies
And we walked off, walked off, walked off to look for America

"Kathy," I said, as we boarded the greyhound in Pittsburgh
"Michigan seems like a dream to me now
Took me four days to from Saginaw
They've all gone to look for America
All gone to look for America."

Laughing on the bus, playing games with faces
She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
I said, "be careful, his bow-tie is really a camera."

"Kathy, I'm lost," I said
Though I knew she was sleeping
Well, I'm empty, and aching, and I don't know why I'm
Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike
And they've all gone to look for America
All gone to look for America

"Kathy, I'm lost," I said
Although I knew she was sleeping
Well, I'm empty, and aching, and I don't know why I'm

All gone to look for America
All gone to look for America

Once a peaceful man laid his old head down by a river,
Thought about his childhood life, his father and forgiver,
Who couldn't hide away, hide away.

He controlled the horses with a handclap or a whisper,
Drink he couldn't combat but in all he was no sinner,
Couldn't hide away, hide away.

He told all his sons of all the antics of a venture,
Then he told another one who drove himself to drink
Not to hide away, hide away.

Better men have realized alone is not a venture,
A peaceful man would realize alone is no adventure,
Just to hide away, hide away.

He told all his sons of all the antics of adventure,
Then he told another one who drove himself to drink
Not to hide away, hide away.

Step out in the night
When you're lonely
Listening for the sounds
That your ears don't hear.
I know your cross is heavier
With every step, every step
But I know a man
Who'd walk miles for you.

Stop! You stay where you are.
Take a look at yourself.
Take a good look at yourself.
Can't tell your mama,
She'd only tell you
That she told you so,
The life you are leading
She won't believe
The real trick of life we all know.

Dawn turns to day
And the dawning
Daytime Nighttime
And we still can't see
Why must we wait
until the morning light
To wake up and be
To wake up and be
To wake up and be
To wake up and be.
