In every heart there is a room a sanctuary safe and strong
to heal the wounds from lovers past Until a new one comes along
I spoke to you in cautious tones You answered me with no pretense
And still I feel I said too much My silence is myself defense
And every time I've held a rose it seems I only felt the thorns
And so it goes and so it goes and so will you soon I suppose
But if my silence mode you leave then that would be my worst mistake
so I will share this room with you and you can have this heart to break
and this is why my eyes are closed it's just as well for all I've seen
abd so it goes and so it goes and you're the only one who knows
so I would choose to be with you that's if the choice were mine to make
but you can make decisions too and you can have this heart to break
and so it goes and so it goes and you're the only one who knows

ll remember you too clearly
But I'll survive another day
Conversations to share
When there's no one there
I'll imagine what you'd say
I'll see you in another life now, a days
I'll feel you in my dreams
and when I reach across the galaxy
I will miss your company
Company
I'll be looking for company
Look and listen
Through the years
Someday you may hear me
crying I'm Still crying crying for company
I'm Still crying for company
So now you're going off to live your life
You say we'll meet each other now and then
But we'll never be the never be the same
And I know I'll never have this chance again
oh no no, not like you not like you
So, I'll see you in another life nowadays
I'll free you in my dreams
And when I reach across the galaxy
I will miss your company
Company
I'll be looking for company
Look and listen
Through the years
Someday you may hear me
crying I'm Still crying crying for company
I'm Still crying for company company looking for company

As a little girl I came down to the water
With a little stone in my hand
It would shimmer and sing
And we knew everything
As a little girl I came down
But in a little while I got steeped in authority
Heaven only knows what went wrong
There is nothing so cruel than
To bury that jewel
When it was mine all along
I'm gonna find it
You're shining I can see you
You're smiling that's enough
I'm holding on to you
Like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond
Every now and then
I can see that I'm getting somewhere
Where I have to go is so deep
I was angry back then and you
Know I still am
I have lost too much sleep
But I'm gonna find it
You're shining I can see you
You're smiling that's enough
I'm holding on to you
Like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough

In my dreams I go down by the water
With a little girl in my arms
And we shimmer and sing
And we know everything
In my dreams I go down
I go down
I go down
I go down
You're shining I can see you
You're smiling that's enough
I'm holding on to you
Like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough
You're shining I can see you
You're smiling that's enough
I'm holding on to you
Like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond

He was too good to me how can I get along now
So close he stood to me
Everything is all messed up and wrong now
He would have brought me the sun
Cos making me smile that was his fun

When I was mean to him he never say go away now
I was his queen to him
Who's gonna light my way now
It's only natural that I'm blue
Cos he was too good to be true
It's only natural I'm so blue
he was too good to be he was too good
he was too good to be true

Dented bodies, broken souls
Wilted roses, hearts grow cold
Unhappy endings and shattered dreams
???

Where's the candlelight, where's the smiles
Man this place goes on for miles
There's heaps and heaps of wedding rings
Equal space for tramps and kings

There's no doberman dogs or security guards at the love junkyard
Open twenty four hours, come as you are, yeah, to the love junkyard

Tanks of teardrops shed in vain
Mixin with the pouring rain
Promises go up in smoke
Freight cars full of abandoned hurt and hope

There's no doberman dogs or security guards at the love junkyard
Open twenty four hours, come as you are, yeah, to the love junkyard

Tiny trysts or grand affairs, there's no more need for teddy bears
The time for pretty words has past, so fly the flag of love half mast
At the love junkyard, yeah

There's no dobermans though or security guards at the love junkyard
Open twenty four hours, bring your broken heart, to the love junkyard

To the love, to the love junkyard
Is that you, is that you, is that you baby, is that you...
Look what I've done for you ...

Today I took a walk up the street
And picked a flower and climbed the hill
Above the lake
And secret thoughts were said aloud
We watched the faces in the clouds
Until the clouds had blown away
And were we ever somewhere else
You know, it's hard to say
And I never saw blue like that before
Across the sky
Around the world
You've given me all you have and more
And no one else has ever shown me how
To see the world the way I see it now
Oh, I, I never saw blue like that

I can't believe a month ago
I was alone, I didn't know you
I had never seen or heard you're name
And even now, I'm so amazed
It's like a dream, It's like a rainbow,
it's like the rain
And somethings are the way they are
And words just can't explain
Cause I never saw blue like that before
Across the sky
Around the world
You've given me all you have and more
And no one else has ever shown me how
To see the world the way I see it now
Oh, I, I never saw blue like that before
And it feels like now,
And it feels always,
And it feels like coming home
I never saw blue like that before
Across the sky
Around the world
You've given me all you have and more
And no one else has ever shown me how
To see the world the way I see it now
Oh, I, I never saw blue like that before

Oh, I, I never saw blue like that

Once in a while
In a big blue moon
There comes a night like this
Like some surrealist
Invented this 4th of July
Night ride home

Hula girls And caterpillar tractors in the sand
The ukulele man
The fireworks
This 4th of July
Night ride home
I love the man beside me
We love the open road
No phones till Friday
Far from the overkill
Far from the overload
Back at the bar
The band tears down
But out here in the headlight beams
The silver powerlines
Gleam
On this 4th of July
Night ride home
Round the curve
And a big dark horse
Red taillights on his hide
Is keeping right alongside
Rev for stride
4th of July
Night ride home
I love the man beside me
We love the open road
No phones till Friday
Far from the undertow
Far from the overload

Once in awhile
In a big blue moon
There comes a night like this
Like some surrealist
Invented this 4th of July
Night ride home
Night ride home
Night ride home
