I'm so far away From everything you know Your name is carried on the wind Your ice blue waters Anya Where do they flow Where have they been Where have they been A hidden passion Touching a spark Flame of revolution Burning wild in your gypsy heart Your gypsy heart Anya - The spirit of freedom Anya - Oh Anya The light of freedom buried Deep within your soul Across the puszta plain to see The rhapsody of angels Refuse to dance alone What do they mean What do they mean Your jewel flashing Across the dark Forbidding distance I love your gypsy heart Your gypsy heart Anya |

Couldn't see a thing but open skies They've taken her away where is she now Wish that she was here wish she'd hold my hand Maybe she could laugh maybe understand Why was I so cruel where is she now Acting like a fool I had to make her cry Maybe I'm a Leo but I ain't a lion I'm hurting oh so bad, I want her now |

Somebody's shouting
Up at a mountain Only my own words return Nobody's up there It's a deception When will I ever learn CHORUS: I'm alone here With emptiness eagles and snow Unfriendliness chilling my body And whispering pictures of home Wondering blindly How can they find me Maybe they don't even know My body is shaking Anticipating The call of the black footed crow... Chorus Here in this prison Of my own making Year after day I have grown Into a hero But there's no worship Where have they hidden my thrown... Chorus |

We all came out to Montreux
on the Lake Geneva shoreline to make records with a mobile We didn't have much time Frank Zappa and the Mothers were at the best place around But some stupid with a flare gun burned the place to the ground Smoke on the water And fire in the sky Smoke on the water They burned down the gambling house It died with an awful sound Funky Claude was running in and out pulling kids out the ground When it all was over We had to find another place But Swiss time was running out It seemed that we would lose the race Smoke on the water And fire in the sky Smoke on the water 간주 We ended up at the Grand Hotel It was empty cold and bare But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside making our music there With a few red lights, a few old beds We made a place to sweat No matter what we get out of this I know, I know we'll never forget Smoke on the water And fire in the sky Smoke on the water |

If you're leaving close the door.
I'm not expecting people anymore. Hear me grieving, I'm lying on the floor. Whether I'm drunk or dead I really ain't too sure. I'm a blind man, I'm a blind man and my world is pale. When a blind man cries, Lord, you know there ain't no sadder tale. Had a friend once in a room, had a good time but it ended much too soon. In a cold month in that room we found a reason for the things we had to do. I'm a blind man, I'm a blind man, now my room is cold. When a blind man cries, Lord, you know he feels it from his soul. |

Run a silent path to nowhere, everything is all
You could have a pleasant life if Summer had no Fall Treat yourself so gently though the task is often hard Man is not a God it seems, who holds the final card Close your eyes and feel the darkness, speak and hear the sound, We only catch a glimpse of all the life that is around, The man is not alive who knows the value of his soul, And when our lives are pulled away, there's more to fill the hole I wonder what you'd think if all the changes didn't come, For growing old is only going back to where you're from Far beyond our senseless thoughts there lies a core of gold Where essence of the newborn child is waiting in the old, The Master Plan is well conceived, it's there for all to see And each day that is spent in thought is living harmony Reach into the depths of being, pass beyond the years, Time is lost in stillness, where there are no hopes and fears, Linger in the void, and like a beacon in the night Purity will fill your soul with ever-present light Everything you've seen is waiting patiently within For growing old is only going back to where you've been |

On a winter's night, stars are cold and bright in the sky,
The slumber of the earth is pure and deep From a distant wood, drifts the echo of a beast The old man stirs and wakens in the night He stands before his window gazing at the grave Forgotten dreams are flashing through his weary mind And though his life is empty, he pretends that she's still there With hunger in his soul, he yearns for life and love gone by, With memories his one and only joy All he has to give, he would give to bring back the life, And raise the one who lies beneath the snow He lights a lamp and looks at pictures of the past The faces of their youth still glow with new-found love, But the picture's faded, and time has stolen youth away With a spoken word that he thought he heard from her lips, He felt another presence in the room, He was filled with fear but filled with joy he arose And turned to face the image that he knew She stood before him and her hand reached out for his A peaceful light shone in her eyes She said she'd come to soothe him, and someday they'd be as one She began to fade and her image disappeared, So he was left alone to face the night, Never in his life, had he been so held in awe, As he faced the apparition of his wife He stood before the window gazing at the grave, And with a lightened heart he saw the first of dawn, He knew that she was waiting, that someday they'd be as one |

Sometimes when I'm walking down this lonely street,
Well, it sure don't seem like twenty years, Since I went walking down this lonely street And the smell of perfumed ladies filled the air This street ain't got no name, dead end is in the river, And I lived where I hated life day by day, There wasn't nothing I could do to shake a cold night shiver, 'Cause to move up Lonely Street you had to have some say Gambling is bad luck down on Lonely Street And it sure ain't no place to be when a man gets sore You know I killed a man and I paid all I can, With twenty years on a chain gang, For the flesh and the blood on that jailhouse floor Sometimes when I'm walking down this lonely street I get caught up in a dream that won't let me go And as the bright lights flash up and down this lonely street My mind rolls back the years long time ago I see my baby stumblin' around with tears in her eyes And as I reach out for her she falls on the floor She mumbles through bloody lips about a bad man, robber, raper, And in my gut I know I got one to score The word was comin' down, down on Lonely Street That the bad man was a dead man if he crossed my trail Every night I'd walk up and down this Lonely Street I get stinkin' drunk, and always in jail, One night they threw me in with a man they called the mangler He was caught on the street makin' some old whore, I remember he was quite proud of that, So half-crazed I shot him, And I cried in the blood on that jailhouse floor |

The mist of time is still concealing
The vision that I seek Those who died have all borne witness If only they would speak Yet I saw it all inside me, for a moment Were you with me? Have we done it all before, is there really so much more? Now and then we've all been given A glimpse of bygone days I'd give all to see it clearly Not shrouded in the haze Yet I saw it all inside me, for a moment Were you with me? Have we done it all before, is there really so much more? Each man has a memory Much more than the eye can see Yet still others linger deep inside you Haunting thoughts of pain and joy divide you Look beyond your eyes At the dark and moody skies For they're standing in your way And I feel the light of day Now the earth gives forth its secrets Held in mountain sea and plain They have never been forgotten Only locked inside my brain While I slept I had a vision, I remember You were with me We have done it all before, in our minds behind the door |

Every day she gets a little weaker
The beauty she once knew has come and gone We've murdered all her sons and all her daughters The blood is on our hands, the time has come And now she's gonna die We've strangled all her trees and starved her creatures There's poison in the sea and in the air But worst of all we've learned to live without her We've lost the very meaning of our lives And now she's gonna die Once she ruled the earth with love and wisdom But we were much too smart to live her way With greed and lust we tried to rise above her The ignorance of man will reach an end And now she's gonna die |

Two began together, lived as one
Each one to the other had become More than a friend, living to meet a common end They were true, each one knew all is well Still the elder knew it could not last Hidden memories from the young one's past Drew them apart Both knew that deep within his heart they must part Each their own separate way It puzzles me how we can be so close and yet worlds apart Can it be, my memory has torn my life in two From the very start I screamed for the devil to let me be I called to the heavens to set me free Today I prayed for the answer and not one Of the gods in the sky would rescue me Dreams of fortune fill the young one's mind Learn the worldly ways of hope to find Love on the way, searching to find the light of day In his soul he had found his own way But to each other they soon will return Destiny fulfilled, their words will burn an eternal flame |

When I'm needin' a friend I can talk to the wind
God I sure am glad that I found him Sometimes he seems to be the only one beside me Who can feel the Lord's breath all around him Winter's cold frozen ice or a bright autumn day On a warm summer night you can hear him say Cry for me, sigh for me, sad breezes flow Stay for me, play for me, the song my friends will know My lonely wind must blow Mighty friend that is mine, can you give me a sign? He'll leave nothing but only to hear him I've seen the tall trees bend low when his mighty winds blow And that's all the more reason I fear him Hear him call for the earth lonely I can feel his great pain But on the eve of this day I'll join in his refrain When I'm needing a friend I'll remember the wind And my life here with the breezes of sorrow I'll be leaving him soon 'cause I've got to make room For the lonely that will find him tomorrow On a black stormy night in your bosom I'll cling And I'll know I've found love and the last song we'll sing |

All the world's forgiving the change is all around And people everywhere have seen the light in what they've found It's a happy place in the human race When all our lives are lived forgiving All the world's for living when love is what you find Despair and loneliness you've got to leave them far behind Tell the clouds to go let the feeling show It's great when life is full of living Everyone's aware they know to change the world we've got to care And people all should know should have happened long ago Or could it be that I just now found out Life is meant to share and it means the same thing everywhere Living everyday, helping people on their way Cause sometimes life gives everyone some doubts Can I have time? Is it right what I feel? At times I doubt what I normally know is real But right now I don't know what to do And it's all because of you I could tell you if I knew that you'd believe As slight and elusive as life sometimes is Right or wrong as we both know we all can be I could never have denied that I need you by my side 'Cause without you life don't seem that much to me I can see an old man cry, it's his time to die And life no longer gives him any breaks He hasn't got a home, no one to call his own Still he tells no one that it is more than he can take When the time is so unkind, an empty future plays in your mind When the darkness cries out to you, can you escape it? What can you do? All the world's forgetting the hate that filled our hearts The times of selfish reasoning that keeps all apart This world was meant to share, let them know you care By making someone's life worth living All the world's believing that this felling's got to stay till all the world is living till all the world is giving till all the world is loving every day |

Sweet child of innocence Living in the present tense Father Time will take his toll Rack your body and steal your soul What became of all the years Are you drowning in your tears Who will catch you when you fall Who will hear you when you call I will comfort you, take your hand and see you through I will take you through the door Who do you think you are Try to live forever and you won't get far I wait behind your door Makes no difference if you're rich or poor Though you're weary and afraid Still you try to flee my blade Come and walk in my new land If you'll only take my hand In the image of those who have walked before me here I am cast in the web of an ancient spell I am holding on to life, I'm drifting in the stream Everything's much clearer now We live within a dream and never wake Judge not by what you see More than you can count are here with me Give up your foolish pride All that walk the earth have died |

Run a silent path to nowhere, everything is all You could have a pleasant life if Summer had no Fall Treat yourself so gently though the task is often hard Man is not a God it seems, who holds the final card Close your eyes and feel the darkness, speak and hear the sound, We only catch a glimpse of all the life that is around, The man is not alive who knows the value of his soul, And when our lives are pulled away, there's more to fill the hole I wonder what you'd think if all the changes didn't come, For growing old is only going back to where you're from Far beyond our senseless thoughts there lies a core of gold Where essence of the newborn child is waiting in the old, The Mater PLan is well conceived, it's there for all to see And each day that is spent in thought is living harmony Reach into the depths of being, pass beyond the years, Time is lost in stillness, where there are no hopes and fears, Linger in the void, and like a beacon in the night Purity will fill your soul with ever-present light Everything you've seen is waiting patiently within For growing old is only going back to where you've been Your request matches 1 albums and 6 songs. |

Well I'm trying to tell you about a thing I thought I saw It came to me in a dream one night When a voice began to call I heard my name being summoned as I looked around to see A hooded judge and jury There was no mercy there for me Well I can't make it, I just can't figure it out This dream is drivin' me crazy I gotta know what it's all about The mark is upon me, and the mark of Cain brings fear A cold wind's blowin' right down my back I'm runnin, I'm runnin' from a figure that's dressed in black I think my legs are made out of lead Cause I'm runnin' but I'm going nowhere The bad dream is coming closer and closer I got a feelin' he'll always be there Forever is a long time to spend in agony And the demons of confusion have got a place for me The mark is upon me, and the mark of Cain brings fear I was tired, so tired of runnin' I had to turn and look around I saw eyes that looked right through me And a voice that made no sound My body froze and I stood and stared, unearthly face before me From the depths of a hooded nightmare, I saw what could not be Mysteries and mayhem from the pinnacle I see There's no answer when there's no question The mark of Cain bears hard on me |

I've so much to say, and yet I cannot speak Come and do my bidding now for I have grown too weak My weary eyes have seen all that life can give Come to me, O young one, for you I can forgive I stood where no man goes, and conquered demon foes With glory and passion no longer in fashion The hero breaks his blade Cast this shadow long that I may hide my face And in this cloak of darkness the world I will embrace In all that I endure, of one thing I am sure Knowledge and reason change like the season A jester's promenade Lying at my feet I see the offering you bring The mark of Cain is on our faces, borne of suffering O, I long to see you say it's not been wrong I stand before you now, a riddle in my song The answer is that sweet refrain Unheard it always will remain Beyond our reach, beyond our gain Trapped in life's parade, a king without a crown In this joy of madness, my smile might seem a frown With talons wrought of steel, I tore the heart of doom And in one gleaming moment I saw beyond the tomb I stood where no man goes, above the din I rose Life is amusing though we are losing Drowned in tears of awe |

Well I been drinkin' again And I know it's a sin But I just can't refuse an old friend Cause life is gettin' me down And I been two times around And there ain't nothing but pain around the bend I'm not made for the time I'm born in the wrong century There's too much craziness here In twenty-five years I have used all the tears in my eyes Now this old world is a fright You know my future ain't bright And I'd just crawl in a hole if I could Or maybe live out in space Or some other far away place And not come back to this earth till it's good Oh but I'm dreaming again I know that I'm here till the end There's too much craziness here In twenty-five years I have used all the tears in my eyes Well you might think that I'm all wrong The things I say in this song I really wish I could see it your way Cause there's a storm rollin' in And it just might be the end So I'm praying we'll all get away Now my cup is running dry The weight of the world gets me down There's too much craziness here In twenty-five years I have used all the tears in my eyes There's nowhere to turn So I'll just have to learn not to cry, no more It's all I can do till we find something new But I'll get by you know I'll try In twenty-five years I have used all the tears in my eyes |

There’ll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don’t you cry no more Once I rose above the noise and confusion Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion I was soaring ever higher But I flew too high Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man Though my mind could think I still was a mad man I can hear the voices when I’m dreaming I can hear them say Carry on my wayward son There’ll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don’t you cry no more Masquerading as a man with a reason My charade is the event of the season And if I claim to be a wise man It surely means that I don’t know On a stormy sea of moving emotion Tossed about I’m like a ship on the ocean I set a course for winds of fortune But I hear the voices say Carry on my wayward son There’ll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don’t you cry no more No!

When the sun is in the mid sky, he wears a golden crown
And he soaks the world with sunshine as he makes another round It's been a faster yeard than yesterday, all things that I had planned And when I think I might be gaining I'm in the sunshine once again Well I walk the road of life among the strong, among the weak And I ask them for the shortcut to the answers that I seek But it seems nobody understands what is and what will be Oh, the questions of my childhood weave a web of mystery Can you get me through these changes? Well I sure don't know about life, but one thng for sure All I need is you babe, we got to get the golden key to unlock the door I don't need to face a world of disillusion I've come to one conclusion that I know you know is true In the game of silent searching the cost of love is rising And I'm just now realizing I'd be better off with you It's a game that I've been living, now I Need to know what's real Can you help me find the answers, can you tell the way I feel? Will you stay with me forever, just stay with me tonight And we can talk about tomorrow if it all works out alright |

I'm woven in a fantasy, I can't believe the things I see
The path that I have chosen now has led me to a wall And with each passing day I feel a little more like something dear was lost It rises now before me, a dark and silent barrier between, All I am, and all that I would ever want to be It's just a travesty, towering, marking off the boundaries my spirit would erase To pass beyond is what I seek, I fear that I may be too weak And those are few who've seen it through to glimpse the other side, The promised land is waiting like a maiden that is soon to be a bride The moment is a masterpiece, the weight of indecision's in the air It's standing there, the symbol and the sum of all that's me It's just a travesty, towering, blocking out the light and blinding me I want to see Gold and diamonds cast a spell, it's not for me I know it well The riches that I seek are waiting on the other side There's more that I can measure in the treasure of the love that I can find And though it's always been with me, I must tear down the Wall and let it be All I am, and all that I was ever meant to be, in harmony Shining true and smiling back at all who wait to cross There is no loss |

Well you told me that I was just not the one,
And you left me standing out in the cold It's been a long tiime and I'm so much better now, That I'm looking back and seeing it all and for the first time there's no pain in my life Though it's a long hardroad that I've gone We had a good thing and it made me a man cause I know CHORUS You got me goin', pardon me my feelings are showing I'm only saying what's on my mind Well I found you or maybe I found myself And I think we knew it all of the time We fit together just like a lock and a key And we opned up each other's minds Yeah, I was laughing 'cause there was no room to cry There waas too much growing to do We had a good time and it ain't over yet 'cause I know CHORUS You came from nowhere and you just jumped in my life and I know it never will be the same You made me love you and now I'm home once again No, I never want to leave you no more 'Cause I'm attached to the better half of myself And there's nowhere else that I'd rather be YOu filled an empty, you fixed a bad broken heart, and I know CHORUS |

Once carried through the current
And being swept away The king is in the closet He's hiding from today And though he owns all fortunes This room is where he'll stay And his world is filled with darkness, turning grey Gazing out the window Of the 42nd second floor He is separate from all others No one knocks upon his door And it might as well be raining 'cause the sunlight hurts his eyes And his ears will never hear the children's cries Once proud and full of passion He fought the cause of man Many people loved his courage Many followed his command He changed the old into the new And the course of things to come And then one day they noticed he was gone At first it didn't matter Nobody seemed to care They all became too busy To find him anywhere So no one knew not even him The problems he would find On the day he journeyed deep into his mind I close my eyes I go far away Away from this battlefield In my dreams well here I will enjoy it Where innocence plays with all the laughing children The kind who are crying right now A taste of freedom from the pain Of everything here I see Life is sweet but I took it all for granted And now I don't know if I could even tell you Just what we permit, we allow Allow me to forget the life I've made my own I've held this nation in my hand And yet it's not my home Allow me just one answer just one reason why Why this refugee of the family of man must die Tell me why Daydreams filled his nighttimes And night dreams filled his days Confusion and uncertainty A puzzled mind of haze You thought he was so powerful And set upon his ways Well he left us all to travel through this maze I heard the king was dying I heard the king was dead And with him died the chronicles That no one ever read The closet's fully empty now It's occupied by none I'll draw the drapes now destiny is done |

It's a strange aberration, this brainstorm of youth
Though it's lost in translation from fancy to truth It's hopelessly human, both inside and out A joyous occasion, no reason to doubt It's easy somehow, what once was elusive is calling me now I am waiting, I am patiently, Doing nothing, in a reverie Climbing higher, seeing everything Interacting, slowly, spiralling I am giving, while I'm watching the Life I'm living, precious energy Escalating, what was once just a game It's never the same, no one's to blame It's a strange situation, there's no cause for alarm All these hot licks and rhetoric Surely do you no harm They're hopelessly human, both inside and out A joyous occasion, there's no reason to doubt When each word is read, would you know the difference If nothing was said All is rhythm, all is unity I am laughing, as it's meant to be Just amusing, I am using the Word was given, making harmony Moving slowly, dancing aimlessly Endless circle, turning fearlessly Resurrected, falling down again Introspective, I'm just stating my views Now you can choose, what do you feel Is it for real this time |

Burning with the question in my mind Strange desire Seems there's nothing else for me to find 'Cause I've been here, and I've been there, Seems like I've been everywhere before I've seen it all a hundred times Still I think there surely must be more I've been livin', I had to take my time and change my style Now I wonder is something gonna make it all worthwhile I know there's more than meets the eye Like to see it 'fore I die for sure. Something tells me it's all right Only one step farther to the door There ain't no feelin', feels the same as findin' out the key Now I'm reelin', thinking of the things that I might see I'm not afraid to face the light I'm not afraid to think that I might fall I was going nowhere fast I was needing something that would last |

The captains tell they pay you well And they say they need sailing men to Show the way, and leave today Was it you that said, "How long, how long?" They say the sea turns so dark that You know it's time, you see the sign They say the point demons guard is An ocean grave, for all the brave, Was it you that said, "How long, how long, How long to the point of know return?" Your father, he said he needs you Your mother, she says she loves you Your brothers, they echo your words: "How far to the point of know return, to the point of know return" "Oh Oh, how long, how long?" Today I found a message floating In the sea from you to me It wrote that when you could see it You cried with fear, the Point was near Was it you that said, "How long, how long, how long To the Point of Know Return?" How Long? How Long to the point of no return?" No Return How Long? (Repeat and Fade) |

The sparks of the tempest rage a hundred years on
The voice of the dreamer screams, the cause of the pawn The King and the Queen are gone, each piece is the same The difference between us is a part of the game Darkness is spreading like a spot on the sun The dead are the living in the age of the gun While everyone clamors for the justice they seek The Word is corrupted and the strong take the weak They mold you and shape you, they watch what you do The sparks of the tempest are burnin' you through Spreading like wildfire, fallin' like rain Though they may promise, they only bring pain The future is managed, and your freedom's a joke You don't know the difference as you put on the yoke The less that you know the more you fall into place A cog in the wheel, there is no soul in your face Run for the cover, Millennium's here Bearing the standard of confusion and fear Spreading like wildfire, fallin' like rain Though they may promise, they only bring pain Blood in the sand, a cry in the street Now the cycle is nearly complete Ten thousand years, and nothing was learned No turning back, now the wheel has turned Big Brother is watching and he likes what he sees A world for the taking, when he's ready to squeeze The King and the Queen are gone, each piece is the same The difference between us is a part of the game Soothsayer saying now tell me no lies What is this madness that is filling the skies Spreading like wildfire, fallin' like rain Though they may promise, they only bring pain |

The sparks of the tempest rage a hundred years on
The voice of the dreamer screams, the cause of the pawn The King and the Queen are gone, each piece is the same The difference between us is a part of the game Darkness is spreading like a spot on the sun The dead are the living in the age of the gun While everyone clamors for the justice they seek The Word is corrupted and the strong take the weak They mold you and shape you, they watch what you do The sparks of the tempest are burnin' you through Spreading like wildfire, fallin' like rain Though they may promise, they only bring pain The future is managed, and your freedom's a joke You don't know the difference as you put on the yoke The less that you know the more you fall into place A cog in the wheel, there is no soul in your face Run for the cover, Millennium's here Bearing the standard of confusion and fear Spreading like wildfire, fallin' like rain Though they may promise, they only bring pain Blood in the sand, a cry in the street Now the cycle is nearly complete Ten thousand years, and nothing was learned No turning back, now the wheel has turned Big Brother is watching and he likes what he sees A world for the taking, when he's ready to squeeze The King and the Queen are gone, each piece is the same The difference between us is a part of the game Soothsayer saying now tell me no lies What is this madness that is filling the skies Spreading like wildfire, fallin' like rain Though they may promise, they only bring pain |

Oh, I cannot tell you to make up your mind
And gather together the best of your kind The prophets have spoken the words of ill fate Your childhood has ended you've taken the bait You've got the power it's there deep inside Just look around and you'll know what you've tried So much relies on the course that you take The fool and the wise man both burn at the stake-ah Look at the heads buried deep in the sand Hiding from evil made by their own hand The prophets have spoken the words of ill fate Your childhood has ended you've taken the bait You've got the power it's there deep inside Just look around and you'll know what you've tried So much relies on the course that you take The fool and the wise man both burn at the stake-ah |

Thirty days have September
In a jailhouse I remember Well, I got caught with too much soul Bringing it back from Mexico Bringing it back from Mexico Spanish lights and pretty faces Trip you out to where the place is Load you up and let you go Bringing it back from Mexico Bringing it back from Mexico Across the border is where you'll get her And when it's good there ain't no better I think I'll get me some to go A-brining it back from Mexico Bringing it back from Mexico |

Carry on my wayward son
There’ll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don’t you cry no more Once I rose above the noise and confusion Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion I was soaring ever higher But I flew too high Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man Though my mind could think I still was a mad man I can hear the voices when I’m dreaming I can hear them say Carry on my wayward son There’ll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don’t you cry no more Masquerading as a man with a reason My charade is the event of the season And if I claim to be a wise man It surely means that I don’t know On a stormy sea of moving emotion Tossed about I’m like a ship on the ocean I set a course for winds of fortune But I hear the voices say Carry on my wayward son There’ll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don’t you cry no more No! Carry on You will always remember Carry on Nothing equals the splendor Now your life’s no longer empty Surely heaven waits for you Carry on my wayward son There’ll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don’t you cry no more |

From the mountains to the sun, Life has only just begun.
We wed this land and pledge our souls to meet its end, Life has only just begun Here my people roam the earth, in the kingdom of our birth, Where the dust of all our horses hides the sun We are mighty on the earth, on the earth You have come to move me, take me from my ancient home, Land of my fathers I can't leave you now We will share it with you, no man owns this earth we're on Now the wheels are rolling hear the howling winds of war It's my destiny to fight and die Is there no solution, can we find no other way, Lord let me stay Under the endless sky and the earth below Here I was born to live and I will never go, oh no But we cannot endure like the earth and the mountains Life is not ours to keep, for a new sun is rising Soon these days shall pass away, for our freedom we must pay All our words and deeds are carried on the wind, In the ground our bodies lay, here we lay |

Sweet child of innocence
Living in the present tense Father Time will take his toll Rack your body and steal your soul What became of all the years Are you drowning in your tears Who will catch you when you fall Who will hear you when you call I will comfort you, take your hand and see you through I will take you through the door Who do you think you are Try to live forever and you won't get far I wait behind your door Makes no difference if you're rich or poor Though you're weary and afraid Still you try to flee my blade Come and walk in my new land If you'll only take my hand In the image of those who have walked before me here I am cast in the web of an ancient spell I am holding on to life, I'm drifting in the stream Everything's much clearer now We live within a dream and never wake Judge not by what you see More than you can count are here with me Give up your foolish pride All that walk the earth have died! |

Once carried through the current
And being swept away The king is in the closet He's hiding from today And though he owns all fortunes This room is where he'll stay And his world is filled with darkness, turning grey Gazing out the window Of the 42nd second floor He is separate from all others No one knocks upon his door And it might as well be raining 'cause the sunlight hurts his eyes And his ears will never hear the children's cries Once proud and full of passion He fought the cause of man Many people loved his courage Many followed his command He changed the old into the new And the course of things to come And then one day they noticed he was gone At first it didn't matter Nobody seemed to care They all became too busy To find him anywhere So no one knew not even him The problems he would find On the day he journeyed deep into his mind I close my eyes I go far away Away from this battlefield In my dreams well here I will enjoy it Where innocence plays with all the laughing children The kind who are crying right now A taste of freedom from the pain Of everything here I see Life is sweet but I took it all for granted And now I don't know if I could even tell you Just what we permit, we allow Allow me to forget the life I've made my own I've held this nation in my hand And yet it's not my home Allow me just one answer just one reason why Why this refugee of the family of man must die Tell me why Daydreams filled his nighttimes And night dreams filled his days Confusion and uncertainty A puzzled mind of haze You thought he was so powerful And set upon his ways Well he left us all to travel through this maze I heard the king was dying I heard the king was dead And with him died the chronicles That no one ever read The closet's fully empty now It's occupied by none I'll draw the drapes now destiny is done |

I'm in a kind of foolish game, I try to get rich quick,
But I'm going insane, The kind of freaks that hang out on 42nd Street They're all pimpin' Judys and poppin' speed, well It's a game of cat and mouse, and I think it's got my soul, I think it's time for thinkin' 'bout a time to roll on Down the road Here comes Big Mike, I kinda owe him some beans, He must be crazy, I guess that's why he's so mean, If I tell him I'm leavin', he would sure enough split my gut, Cause he knows I sold to a sucker, and I owe Big Mike a cut, But I'll slip him a 20-dollar bill till I get out of town, When I hit those white lines, I'm gonna be gone like a Greyhound down the road |

It's a strange aberration, this brainstorm of youth
Though it's lost in translation from fancy to truth It's hopelessly human, both inside and out A joyous occasion, no reason to doubt It's easy somehow, what once was elusive is calling me now I am waiting, I am patiently, Doing nothing, in a reverie Climbing higher, seeing everything Interacting, slowly, spiralling I am giving, while I'm watching the Life I'm living, precious energy Escalating, what was once just a game It's never the same, no one's to blame It's a strange situation, there's no cause for alarm All these hot licks and rhetoric Surely do you no harm They're hopelessly human, both inside and out A joyous occasion, there's no reason to doubt When each word is read, would you know the difference If nothing was said All is rhythm, all is unity I am laughing, as it's meant to be Just amusing, I am using the Word was given, making harmony Moving slowly, dancing aimlessly Endless circle, turning fearlessly Resurrected, falling down again Introspective, I'm just stating my views Now you can choose, what do you feel Is it for real this time |

Early in the morning sunlight
Soaring on the wings of dawn Here I'll live and die with my wings in the sky And I won't come down no more Higher than a bird I'm flying Crimson skies of ice and fire Borne on wings of steel I have so much to feel And I won't come down no more Sail on, sail on, I will rise each day to meet the dawn So high, so high I've climbed the mountains of the sky Without my wings you know I'd surely die I found my freedom flyin' high I've climbed the mountains of the sky Floating on the clouds of amber Searching for the rainbow's end Earth so far below me, I'm here alone, free I can't come down no more |

Each one to the other had become More than a friend, living to meet a common end They were true, each one knew all is well Still the elder knew it could not last Hidden memories from the young one's past Drew them apart Both knew that deep within his heart they must part Each their own separate way It puzzles me how we can be so close and yet worlds apart Can it be, my memory has torn my life in two From the very start I screamed for the devil to let me be I called to the heavens to set me free Today I prayed for the answer and not one Of the gods in the sky would rescue me Dreams of fortune fill the young one's mind Learn the worldly ways of hope to find Love on the way, searching to find the light of day In his soul he had found his own way But to each other they soon will return Destiny fulfilled, their words will burn an eternal flame |

Sometimes when I'm walking down this lonely street,
Well, it sure don't seem like twenty years, Since I went walking down this lonely street And the smell of perfumed ladies filled the air This street ain't got no name, dead end is in the river, And I lived where I hated life day by day, There wasn't nothing I could do to shake a cold night shiver, 'Cause to move up Lonely Street you had to have some say Gambling is bad luck down on Lonely Street And it sure ain't no place to be when a man gets sore You know I killed a man and I paid all I can, With twenty years on a chain gang, For the flesh and the blood on that jailhouse floor Sometimes when I'm walking down this lonely street I get caught up in a dream that won't let me go And as the bright lights flash up and down this lonely street My mind rolls back the years long time ago I see my baby stumblin' around with tears in her eyes And as I reach out for her she falls on the floor She mumbles through bloody lips about a bad man, robber, raper, And in my gut I know I got one to score The word was comin' down, down on Lonely Street That the bad man was a dead man if he crossed my trail Every night I'd walk up and down this Lonely Street I get stinkin' drunk, and always in jail, One night they threw me in with a man they called the mangler He was caught on the street makin' some old whore, I remember he was quite proud of that, So half-crazed I shot him, And I cried in the blood on that jailhouse floor. |

God I sure am glad that I found him Sometimes he seems to be the only one beside me Who can feel the Lord's breath all around him Winter's cold frozen ice or a bright autumn day On a warm summer night you can hear him say Cry for me, sigh for me, sad my breezes flow Stay for me, play for me, the song my friends will know My lonely wind must blow Mighty friend that is mine, can you give me a sign? He'll leave nothing but only to hear him I've seen the tall trees bend low when his mighty winds blow And that's all the more reason I fear him Hear him call for the earth lonely I can feel his great pain But on the eve of this day I'll join in his refrain When I'm needing a friend I'll remember the wind And my life here with the breezes of sorrow I'll be leaving him soon 'cause I've got to make room For the lonely that will find him tomorrow On a black stormy night in your bosom I'll cling And I'll know I've found love and the last song we'll sing |

Down from a gleaming heaven, I can hear the voices call When you comin' home now, son, the World is not for you Tell me what's you point of view Hey there Mister Madman, wat'cha know that I don't know Tell me some crazy stories, let me know who runs this show Glassy-eyed and laughing, he turns and walks away Tell me what made you that way Here I am just waiting for a sign Asking questions, learning all the time It's always here, it's always there It's just love, and miracles out of nowhere Tell me now dear Mother, what's it like to be so old Children grown and leavin', seems the world is growin' cold And though your body's ailin' you, your mind is just like new Tell me where you're goin' to It's so simple right before your eyes If you'll only look through this disguise It's always here, it's always there It's just love and miracles out of nowhere I sang this song a hundred, maybe a thousand years ago No one ever listens, I just play and then I go Off into the sunset like the western heroes do Tell me what you're gonna do Here I am, I'm sure to see a sign All my life I knew that it was mine It's always here, it's always there It's just love and miracles out of nowhere |

It came to me in a dream one night When a voice began to call I heard my name being summoned as I looked around to see A hooded judge and jury There was no mercy there for me Well I can't make it, I just can't figure it out This dream is drivin' me crazy I gotta know what it's all about The mark is upon me, and the mark of Cain brings fear A cold wind's blowin' right down my back I'm runnin, I'm runnin' from a figure that's dressed in black I think my legs are made out of lead Cause I'm runnin' but I'm going nowhere The bad dream is coming closer and closer I got a feelin' he'll always be there Forever is a long time to spend in agony And the demons of confusion have got a place for me The mark is upon me, and the mark of Cain brings fear I was tired, so tired of runnin' I had to turn and look around I saw eyes that looked right through me And a voice that made no sound My body froze and I stood and stared, unearthly face before me From the depths of a hooded nightmare, I saw what could not be Mysteries and mayhem from the pinnacle I see There's no answer when there's no question The mark of Cain bears hard on me |

Burning with the question in my mind Strange desire Seems there's nothing else for me to find 'Cause I've been here, and I've been there, Seems like I've been everywhere before I've seen it all a hundred times Still I think there surely must be more I've been livin', I had to take my time and change my style Now I wonder is something gonna make it all worthwhile I know there's more than meets the eye Like to see it 'fore I die for sure. Something tells me it's all right Only one step farther to the door There ain't no feelin', feels the same as findin' out the key Now I'm reelin', thinking of the things that I might see I'm not afraid to face the light I'm not afraid to think that I might fall I was going nowhere fast I was needing something that would last |

I heard the men saying something
The captains tell they pay you well And they say they need sailing men to Show the way, and leave today Was it you that said, "How long, how long?" They say the sea turns so dark that You know it's time, you see the sign They say the point demons guard is An ocean grave, for all the brave, Was it you that said, "How long, how long, How long to the point of know return?" Your father, he said he needs you Your mother, she says she loves you Your brothers, they echo your words: "How far to the point of know return, to the point of know return" "Oh Oh, how long, how long?" Today I found a message floating In the sea from you to me It wrote that when you could see it You cried with fear, the Point was near Was it you that said, "How long, how long, how long To the Point of Know Return?" How Long? How Long to the point of no return?" No Return How Long? (Repeat and Fade) |

I heard the men saying something
The captains tell they pay you well And they say they need sailing men to Show the way, and leave today Was it you that said, "How long, how long?" They say the sea turns so dark that You know it's time, you see the sign They say the point demons guard is An ocean grave, for all the brave, Was it you that said, "How long, how long, How long to the point of know return?" Your father, he said he needs you Your mother, she says she loves you Your brothers, they echo your words: "How far to the point of know return, to the point of know return" "Oh Oh, how long, how long?" Today I found a message floating In the sea from you to me It wrote that when you could see it You cried with fear, the Point was near Was it you that said, "How long, how long, how long To the Point of Know Return?" How Long? How Long to the point of no return?" No Return How Long? (Repeat and Fade) |
