I could feel at the time
There was no way of knowing Fallen leaves in the night Who can say where they're blowing As free as the wind And hopefully learning Why the sea on the tide Has no way of turning CHORUS More than this-there is nothing More than this-tell me one thing More than this-thre is nothing It was fun for a while There was no way of knowing Like a dream in the night Who can say where we're going No care in the world Maybe I'm learning Why the sea on the tide Has no way of turning CHORUS |

The way I see it
This relationship ain't right The space between us Better close it up tonight The space between us Close it up tonight The way I see it This relationship ain't right The space between us Listen here, listen, listen here, listen We better Close it up tonight |

Now the party's over
I'm so tired. Then I see you coming out of nowhere. Much communication in a motion Without conversation or a notion. - Avalon Where the samba takes you out of nowhere And the background's fading out of focus. Yes the picture's changing every moment and your destination you don't know it. - Avalon Dancing dancing dancing @ dancing. When you bossa nova there's no holding Would you have me dancing out of nowhere. - Avalon Avalon Avalon Avalon Avalon Avalon |

All of those people
Everywhere Ever so needing Where's it all leading Tell me where Nothing insincere I'd better have pity I'd better go easy I never will lay down While my heart is still beating Where's it all leading Walk on air Am I still dreaming Words to spare Lost in their meaning I'd better be strong now I'd better stop dreaming My heart has flown away now Will it never stop bleeding? |

Look at my hand
There's a soul on fire You can lead me even higher The main thing Everybody knows When a good thing's gone You can really turn me on The main thing You run through here With your words of sand I can nearly understand The main thing |

As they say, two can play But keep that song away from me In my time, too much love Has made me sad for so long I was blind, can't you see Through the long, lonely night Heaven knows I believe Won't you take a chance with me Sometimes I get so blue People say I'm just a fool All the world, even you Should learn to love the way I do I was lost, can't you see Through the long, lonely night Haven knows, I believe You can take a chance with me |

I could show you in a word
If I wanted to A window on a world With a lovely view >From close up inside a single room With an open book aside Like you read in school It's so easy, believe me When you need fun I'd do anything to turn you on Anything to to turn you on Is it raining in New York On Fifth Avenue And off Broadway after dark Love the lights, don't you I could walk you through the park If you're feeling blue Or whatever Spring, summer, whenever Winter through fall I'd do anything to turn you on Anything to turn you on I could leave you as you were If I wanted to Then I wonder, is it fair Now you're on your own Who cares about you Except me, God help me When things go wrong I'd do anything to turn you on Must phone me, you know me When things go wrong I'd do anything to turn you on |

So it gets to seven
And I think of nothing But living in darkness And the diamond lady Well, she's not telling I don't even know here name It's amazing Times have changed In days of old Imagination'd leave you standing Out in the cold Dancing city Now you're talking But where's your soul-you've a thousand faces I'll never know There are complications And compensations If you know the game Agitated in Xenon nightly I'll take you home again Travel way downtown In search of nothing But the sky at night And the diamond lady Well, she's not talking But that's all right So I turn the pages And tell the story >From town to town People tell me Be determined Poor country boy Too much luck Means too much trouble Much time alone But arm in arm With my seaside diamond I'll soon be home |
