Who can say for certain
Maybe you're still here I feel you all around me Your memories so clear Deep in the stillness I can hear you speak You're still an inspiration Can it be That you are mine Forever love And you are watching over me From up above. chorus Fly me up to where you are Beyond the distant star I wish upon tonight To see you smile If only for a while To know you're there A breath away's not far to where you are. Are you gently sleeping Here inside my dream? And isn't faith believing All power can't be seen As my heart holds you Just one beat away I cherish all you gave me Everyday Cause you are mine Forever love Watching me From up above And I believe That angels breathe and that love will live on And never leave chorus Fly me up to where you are Beyond the distant star I wish upon tonight To see you smile If only for a while To know you're there A breath away's not far to where you are. I know you're there A breath away's not far to where you are |

Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight, out of sight.
Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight, out of sight. I'm a poorman's son, from across the railroad tracks, The only shirt I own is hangin' on my back, But I'm the envy of ev'ry single guy Since I'm the apple of my girl's eye. When we go out stepping on the town for a while My money's low and my suit's out of style, But it's all right if my clothes aren't new Out of sight because my heart is true. She says baby ev'rything is alright, uptight, out of sight. Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight. I'm a pearl of a girl, I guess that's what you might say, I guess her folks brought her up that way, The right side of the tracks, she was born and raised In a great big old house, full of butlers and maids. No one is better than I, I know I'm just an average guy, No football hero or smooth Don Juan, Got empty pockets, you see I'm a poorman's son. She says give her the things that money can buy But I'll never, never make my baby cry, And it's all right, what I can't do, Out of sight because my heart is true, She says baby ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight. Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight. Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, ah ah ah ah, Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight. Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight. |

Go face the worries of the day With a child's heart Turn each problem into play No need to worry no need to fear Just being alive makes it all so very clear With a child's heart Nothing can ever get you down With a child's heart You've got no reason to frown Love is as welcome As a sunny sunny day No grown-up thoughts To lead our hearts astray Take life easy, so easy nice and easy Like a child so gay and so carefree The whole world smiles with you As you go your merry way Oh with a child's heart Nothing's gonna get me down |

I was born in Lil' Rock,
Had a childhood sweetheart, We were always hand in hand. I was high-top shoes and shirt tails, Suzy was in pig tails, I know I loved her even then. You know my papa disapproved it, My mama boohooed it, But I told them time and time again, "Don't you know I was made to love her, Built a world all around her" Yah! Hey, hey, hey. She's been my inspiration, Showed appreciation For the love I gave her through the years. Like a sweet magnolia tree My love blossomed tenderly, My life grew sweeter through the years. I know that my baby loves me, My baby needs me, That's why we made it through the years. I was made to love her, Worship and adore her, Hey, hey, hey. All through thick and thin Our love just won't end, 'Cause I love my baby, love my baby. Ah! My baby loves me, My baby needs me, And I know I ain't going nowhere. I was knee high to a chicken When that love bug bit me, I had the fever with each passing year. Oh, even if the mountain tumbles, If this whole world crumbles, By her side I'll still be standing there. 'Cause I was made to love her, I was made to live for her, yeah! Ah, I was made to love her, Built my world all around her, Hey, hey, hey. Oo baby, I was made to please her, You know Stevie ain't gonna leave her, no, Hey, hey, hey. Oo wee baby, my baby loves me, My baby needs me, Hey, hey, hey. OO my baby loves me.... |

Isolated junk yard
Letting out the garbage Eating through the core of life Sweet fragrance irritates In a state room death awaits Persecute your own self-pride Suffocate the new high Ride the thorny mule that cries "Dig your grave and step right in" Like a judas pay the price 30 pieces for a ride Here's the fire take a chew Do yourself a favour Educate your mind Get yourself together Hey there ain't much time Do yourself a favour Educate your mind Get yourself together Hey there ain't much time Shredded know-how give away Species of the human race Those funky winds of ups and downs Hall of grit is known too well Heaven still is your hell Poison slowly slowly drowns Let the devil step right in Lucifer's your only friend Ain't a soul go'n pity you Hurdly over time to death With open arms it waits I bet Don't you wish you could reach ground? Do yourself a favour Educate your mind Get yourself together Hey there ain't much time Do yourself a favour Educate your mind Get yourself together Hey there ain't much time |

We are idle strangers
Married to our dangers Into space we go to change our ways Flying to our heavens We are all together Into hell we chase the light of day Look around and you'll see Ruins of the human history Look around and you'll see Time is only floating in your mind You will find Searching for time Empty is your mind We are charmed by living Dazzled into giving All the waste we plan to ignore Coldness is the virtue Measured by the untrue Love is used for something but what for? Look around and you'll see Ruins of the human history Look around and you'll see Time is only floating in your mind You will find Searching for time Empty is your mind Look around |

Something Out Of The Blue
I opened up my mind Peace I could not find Then something out of the blue Said I needed you Time swept me away Merged me into pain Then something out of the blue Said you need me too Oh what joy it bring to me To know that heavens round Oh what gladness in my heart To know my love's been found Now where hope was lost Love's paid the cost And something out of the blue Said my love is you Something out of the blue Said I needed you Something out of the blue |

Sunshine In Their Eyes
A lonesome fear A hungry face A barren pain A dream unchased Oh I can't wait untill the day there's sunshine in their eyes A prayer is heard By one so small Let love be in the Hearts of all Oh I can't wait untill there's sunshine in their eyes You and I may never see them cry Or wonder why the world's so cold You feel that they're too young To take a look around But in their faces I can see the trouble all around Today we must turn into lies The truth already in their minds Oh I can't wait untill the day there's sunshine in their eyes He can't wait untill the day there's sunshine in their eyes OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sunshine Oh I can't wait untill the day there's sunshine in their eyes Sunshine in our eyes |

When life reaches out and takes you
On an unpleasent ride And your bridge of dreams comes Tumblin' down Don't let your bed of sorrow Ever conquer your pride Remember there's always a way out Just take up a course in happiness Take up a course to clear out your mind You will show yourself how to smile Take up a course in happiness Take up a free instruction in life You will learn how to smile And when your optimism Has a set back or two And you feel all your tryin's in vain (Your heart's in the rain) Don't give up the hope that's due you Just to study your doubt Remember there's always a way out Just take up a course in happiness Take up a course to clear out your mind You will show yourself how to smile Take up a course in happiness Take up a free instruction in life You will learn how to smile (Repeat three times) |

"Big Brother"
Your name is big brother You say that you're watching me on the tele, Seeing me go nowhere, Your name is big brother, You say that you're tired of me protesting, Children dying everyday, My name is nobody But I can't wait to see your face inside my door Your name is big brother You say that you got me all in your notebook, Writing it down everyday, Your name is I'll see ya, I'll change if you vote me in as the pres, The President of your soul I live in the ghetto, You just come to visit me 'round election time I live in the ghetto, Someday I will move on my feet to the other side, My name is secluded, we live in a house the size of a matchbox, Roaches live with us wall to wall, You've killed all our leaders, I don't even have to do nothin' to you You'll cause your own country to fall |

Where has my love gone?
How can I go on? It seems dear love has gone away. Where is my spirit? I'm nowhere near it, Oh yes, my love has gone astray. But I'll blame it on the sun, The sun that didn't shine, I'll blame it on the wind and the trees. I'll blame it on the time that never was enough, I'll blame it on the tide and the sea, But, my heart blames it on me. Who poured the love out? What made this bitter doubt? Is peace not here for me to see? Wish I could tell you, What I am feeling, But, words won't come for me to speak. But I'll blame it on the sun, That didn't fill the sky, I'll blame it on the birds and the trees. I'll blame it on the day that ended once too soon, I'll blame it on the nights that could not be, But, my heart blames it on me. (Background)...Yeh, yeh, yeh, ooh, Your heart blames it on you this time |

When you believe in a feeling,
And it's holding you back from my love, Then you've got it bad girl, you've got it bad girl. When you insist on excluding The tenderness that's in my kiss, Then you've got it bad girl, you've got it bad girl. If you try to display an emotion, That will contradict itself, You will find your heart just sitting Like a statue on a shelf, on a shelf, on a shelf. Should you depend on an outlet, Through which an escape can be found, Then you've got it bad girl, you've got it bad girl. If you don't see there's no way out, Just no way of getting around me, Then you've got it bad girl, you've got it bad girl. Yes, you know the plans I am making, Are intended to capture you, So you practice false reactions, To delay the things I do, the things I do, things I do, foolish you. You've got it bad girl, you've got it bad. There's no reward in detouring My deep sincerity. Especially since what you're feeling, Is perfectly clear to me, clear to me, clear to me. Before you discover the feeling, You've tried very hard to hide, You've got it bad girl, you've got it bad girl. But when you can find just a small space, To let my love live in your mind, Then you'll have it good girl, you'll have it good girl. |

Lady love and lady cared
but lady went away, And left me all alone to suffer. And now I feel it's not fair for me to fall in love The truth is the real me you must uncover. Seems so long, since I've heard the sound It's been so long, since I've trusted in someone else, Had to see it all for myself, It's been so long, that the world seems cold, But I think it's time in my life to find myself again. Lady loved and lady stayed, Until she was too pleased She knew I wouldn't leave for her to suffer. I'd never make her suffer. Now I believe you're just like me, In that you understand, And want me for your man to always love me. You can believe it's seems so long, since I've touched a wanting hand Oh, it seems so long, since I've trusted in someone else, Had to see this world for myself, And it's been so long that the world seems cold, Now I think I've found someone to make me trust in someone again. I believe that I can trust in you. |

So long ago
Was it in a dream, was it just a dream? I know, yes I know Seemed so very real, it seemed so real to me Took a walk down the street Thru the heat whispered trees I thought I could hear (hear, hear, hear) Somebody call out my name as it started to rain Two spirits dancing so strange Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Dream, dream away Magic in the air, was magic in the air? I believe, yes I believe More I cannot say, what more can I say? On a river of sound Thru the mirror go round, round I thought I could feel (feel, feel, feel) Music touching my soul, something warm, sudden cold The spirit dance was unfolding Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé |

As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving,
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May, Just as hate knows love's the cure, You can rest your mind assure, That I'll be loving you always. As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow, But in passing will grow older every day, Just as all that's born is new, Do know what I say is true, That I'll be loving you always. Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky Always Until the ocean covers every mountain high Always Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea Always Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream Did you know that true love asks for nothing? Her acceptance is the way we pay. Did you know that life has given love a guarantee, To last through forever and another day? Just as time knew to move on since the beginning, And the seasons know exactly when to change, Just as kindness knows no shame, Know through all your joy and pain, That I'll be loving you always. As today I know I'm living, but tomorrow, Could make me the past, but that I mustn't fear. For I'll know deep in my mind, The love of me I've left behind, 'Cause I'll be loving you always. Until the day is night and night becomes the day Always Until the trees and seas just up and fly away Always Until the day that eight times eight times eight is four Always Until the day that is the day that are no more Did you know you're loved by somebody? Until the day the earth starts turnin' right to left Always Until the earth just for the sun denies itself I'll be lovin' you forever Until dear mother nature says her work is through Always Until the day that you are me and I am you Always- Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky Until the ocean covers every mountain high Always We all know, sometimes life's hates and troubles, Can make you wish you were born in another time and space. But you can bet your life, times that and twice its double, That God knew exactly where he wanted you to be placed. So make sure when you say you're in it, but not of it, You're not helpin' to make this Earth a place sometimes called Hell. Change your words, into truths, and then change that truth into love, And maybe our children's grandchildren and their great grandchildren will tell. I'll be loving you, Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky, Loving you, Until the ocean covers every mountain high, Loving you, Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea, Loving you, Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream, Be loving you, Until the day is night and night becomes the day, Loving you, Until the trees and seas just up, up and fly away, Loving you, Until the day that eight times eight times eight is four, Loving you, Until the day that is the day that are no more, Loving you, Until the day the earth starts turning right to left, Be loving you Until the earth just for the sun denies itself, Loving you, 'Til Mother Nature, Mother Nature says her work is through, Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through Loving you, Until the day that you are me and I am you, Now ain't that loving you? Hey Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky Ain't that loving you? Until the ocean covers every mountain high And I've got to say, always Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea Always Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream Always Until the day is night and night becomes the day Always Until the trees and seas just up and fly away Always- Until the day that eight times eight times eight is four Until the day that is the day that are no more Always- Until the day the earth starts turning right to left Until the earth just for the sun denies itself Always Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through Until the day that you are me and I am you Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky Until the ocean covers every mountain high Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream Until the day is night and night becomes the day Until the trees and sea just up and fly away Until the day that eight times eight times eight is four Until the day that is the day that are no more Until the day the earth starts turning right to left Until the earth just for the sun denies itself Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through Until the day that you are me and I am you |

First man to die
For the flag we now hold high Was a black man The ground were we stand With the flag held in our hand Was first the redman's Guide of a ship On the first Columbus trip Was a brown man The railroads for trains Came on tracking that was laid By the yellow man We pledge allegiance All our lives To the magic colours Red, blue and white But we all must be given The liberty that we defend For with justice not for all men History will repeat again It's time we learned This world was made for all men Heart surgery Was first done successfully By a black man Friendly man who died But helped the pilgrims to survive Was a red man Farm workers rights Were lifted to new heights By a brown man Incandescent light Was invented to give sight By the white man We pledge allegiance All our lives To the magic colours Red, blue and white But we all must be given The liberty that we defend For with justice not for all men History will repeat again It's time we learned This world was made for all men Here me out... Now I know, the birthday of a nation Is a time when a country celebrates But as your hand touches your heart Remember we all played a part in America To help that banner wave First clock to be made In America was created By a black man Scout who used no chart Helped lead Lewis and Clark Was a red wild man Use of martial arts In our country got its start By a yellow man And the leader with a pen Signed his name to free all men Was a white man We pledge allegiance All our lives To the magic colours Red, blue and white But we all must be given The liberty that we defend For with justice not for all men History will repeat again It's time we learned This world was made for all men This world was made for all men This world was made for all men This world was made for all men God saved his world for all men All people All babies All children All colors All races This world's for you And me This world My world Your world Everybody's world This world Their world Our world This world was made for all men (Interlude) First man to die For the flag we now hold high Was a black man The ground were we stand With the flag held in our hand Was first the redman's Guide of a ship On the first Columbus trip Was a brown man The railroads for trains Came on tracking that was laid By the yellow man We pledge allegiance All our lives To the magic colours Red, blue and white But we all must be given The liberty that we defend For with justice not for all men History will repeat again It's time we learned This world was made for all men This world was made for all men (Repeat) |

If it's magic
Then why can't it be everlasting Like the sun that always shines Like the poets in this rhyme Like the galaxies in time If it's pleasing Then why can't it be never leaving Like the day that never fails Like on seashores there are shells Like the time that always tells It holds the key to every heart Throughout the universe It fills you up without a bite And quenches every thirst So, if it's special Then with it why aren't we as careful As making sure we dress in style Posing pictures with a smile Keeping danger from a child It holds the key to every heart Throughout the universe It fills you up without a bite And quenches every thirst So, if it's magic Why can't we make it everlasting Like the lifetime of the sun It will leave no heart undone For there's enough for everyone |

Isn't she lovely
Isn't she wonderful Isn't she precious Less than one minute old I never thought through love we'd be Making one as lovely as she But isn't she lovely made from love Isn't she pretty Truly the angel's best Boy, I'm so happy We have been heaven blessed I can't believe what God has done Through us he's given life to one But isn't she lovely made from love Isn't she lovely Life and love are the same Life is Aisha The meaning of her name Londie, it could have not been done Without you who conceived the one That's so very lovely made from love |

I've always come to the conclusion that 'but' is the way
Of asking for permission to lay something heavy on ones head So I have tried to not be the one who'll fall into that line But what I feel inside I think you should know And baby that's you - you - you Made life's history Cause you've brought some joy inside my tears And you have done what no one thought could be You've brought some joy inside my tears I've always felt that tomorrow is for those who are too much afraid To go past yesterday and start living for today I feel that lasting moments are coming far and few between So I should tell you of the happiness that you bring Baby, baby it's you - you - you Made life's history Oh baby, you've brought some joy inside my tears You have done what no one thought could be You brought some joy inside my tears You brought some joy inside my tears You brought some joy inside my tears You've brought some joy inside my tears You have done what no one thought could be You brought some joy inside my tears You - you - you, made life's history You brought some joy inside my tears You have done what no one thought could be You brought some joy inside my tears [Repeat] |

Packing my bags -- going away
To a place where the air is clean On Saturn There's no sense to sit and watch people die We don't fight our wars the way you do We put back all the things we use On Saturn There's no sense to keep on doing such crimes There's no principles in what you say No direction in the things you do For your world is soon to come to a close Through the ages all great men have taught Truth and happiness just can't be bought - or sold Tell me why are you people so cold I'm.... Going back to Saturn where the rings all glow Rainbow, moonbeams and orange snow On Saturn People live to be two hundred and five Going back to Saturn where the people smile Don't need cars cause we've learned to fly On Saturn Just to live to us is our natural high We have come here many times before To find your strategy to peace is war Killing helpless men, women and children That don't even know what they're dying for We can't trust you when you take a stand With a gun and bible in your hand And the cold expression on your face Saying give us what we want or we'll destroy I'm.... Going back to Saturn where the rings all glow Rainbow, moonbeams and orange snow On Saturn People live to be two hundred and five Going back to Saturn where the people smile Don't need cars cause we've learned to fly On Saturn Just to live to us is our natural high |

We're a people black as is your night
Born to spread Amma's eternal light Which since time began Has been to bring truth to every man Our ancestors have since long ago Passed their wisdom down so we to know For here lies the key That will help unfold the mistery A seed's a star A seed's a star's a seed A star's a seed A star's a seed's a star In myself I do contain The elements of sun and rain First a seed with roots that swell I gradually burst through my shell Pushing down into the ground The root of me is homeward bound A trunk, a leaf and there I am A miracle of least by far Tree - you are the longest living one we know the largest of all plants and still you grow Tree - within your branches there's such history so much of what we're searching for to know Every fifty years we celebrate Po Tolo, our star, as it rotates Though infinitely small It is still the heaviest of them all (Background) A seed's a star A seed's a star's a seed A star's a seed A star's a seed's a star A seed's a star A seed's a star's a seed A star's a seed A star's a seed's a star (Background-simultaneous) Ye Lolo De Ye Lolo Ye Kesse De Ye Kesse ye lolo De Ye Lolo Ye Kesse De Ye Kesse ye lolo De Ye Lolo Ye Kesse De Ye Kesse ye lolo De Ye Lolo Ye Kesse De Ye And some believe antennas are their leaves That spans beyond our galaxy They've been, they are and probably will be Who are the mediocrity |

There is a garden
Where every heart can Share in the joy of giving It like no other Has love to cover Bearing no price on living Quietty listen and you might hear them singing their lullaby Calling for you to join in their love filled garden Kibo-ni afure ikiru yorokobi Shiawase ni michi te Ai no rakuen Subete no kokoro ga Ai o wakachiau Shizuka ni mimi katamuke yo Ai no komori uta Kimi sasoi yobikakenu Ai no sono |

A flake of snow within a storm
A new way waiting to be born In a world with need for change A touch of love in fear of hate A rushing wind that's asked to wait For the promises of rain A pearl of wisdom entrapped by poverty She gives love with purity Filling minds with hopeful schemes To build worlds enhanced by peace Draped in sparkling morning dew She expresses life anew From the earth beneath her feet She is a flower that grows In love abilty, she's femeninity Black Orchid, black Orchid Why did they make you begin When they know in time you'll find your truth Before your cycle ends Black orchid, black orchid Why are you crying their fears When the true reflection of you that they see Is love besieged by years She has touched the farthest star Her beauty speaks of what we are And her freedom makes us free Her now is an eternity Infinite to all that see And her dreams have been acheived Now there is the sound of laughter Nature sings out her name For the world to know her fame Black orchid, black orchid Why did they criticize When they knew your love would cast it's spell And consecrate their eyes Black orchid, black orchid Why do you lingr in space When you know in every heart that beats You hold a speacial place When you know in every heart that beats You hold a special place |

The starngest thought came to me
On this morning As I awake to greet the coming dawn The sun was hardly peaking through the garden It felt that with everything I was one Then I wished that I could come back As a flower, as a flower, as a flower How I wished that I could come back As a flower, as a flower To spread the sweetness of love To spread the sweetness of love The dew had finished making love to many A rainbow smelling sweet was in the air I envied all the silence I saw growing So unmoved by things outside themselves Then how I wished that I could come back As a flower, as a flower, as a flower How I wished that I could come back As a flower, as a flower To spread the sweetness of love How I wished that I could come back As a flower, oh as a flower, as a flower How I wished that I could come back As a flower, as a flower, as a flower To spread the sweetness of love To spread the sweetness of love |

La-La-La-La
La-La-La La-La-La La-La-La La-La (repeat 2 times) Much has been written about The world and all its kind of loves But the sweetest of them all You seldom will find stories of, oh oh oh oh My love lives outside my window Clouds burst to give water So her love can grow, oh My love smiles to me each morning Says she’ll never leave me and I know it’s so La-La-La-La La-La-La La-La-La La-La-La La-La (repeat 1 times) You don’t have to look around Or ask yourself if she is there ‘Cause the fragrance of her love Says hi with every breath of air, oh oh oh oh La-La-La-La La-La-La La-La-La La-La-La La-La (repeat 1 times) You will often hear her name Describing another’s prettiness But if ever there was choice My flower would be the prettiest, oh oh oh oh My love lives outside my window Clouds burst to give water So her love can grow, oh My love smiles to me each morning Says she’ll never leave me and I know it’s so La-La-La-La La-La-La La-La-La La-La-La La-La (repeat 6 times) |
