As I walk this land of broken dreams I have visions of many things Lovez happiness is just an illusion Filled with sadness and confusion What becomes of the brokenhearted Who had love that is now departed I know I have got to find Some kind of peace of mind, maybe The fruits of love grow all around But for me they come tumbling down Everyday heartaches grow a little stronger I can not stand this pain much longer I walk in shadows searching for light Cold and alone, no comfort in sight Hoping and praying or someone to care Always moving and going nowhere What becomes of the brokenhearted Who had love that is now departed I know I have got to find Some kind of peace of mind, maybe I am searching though I do not succeed But someone look, there is a growing need Oh he is lost, there is no place for beginning All that is left is an unhappy ending... What becomes of the brokenhearted Who had love that is now departed I know I have got to find Some kind of peace of mind, maybe
Whoa! My love, my darling, I hunger for your touch, Alone. Lonely time. And time goes by, so slowly, And time can do so much, Are you still mine? I need your love. I need your love. God speed your love to me. Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea, To the open arms of the sea. Lonely rivers sigh, wait for me, wait for me, I'll be coming home, wait for me. Whoa! My love, my darling, I hunger, hunger!, for your love, For love. Lonely time. And time goes by, so slowly, And time can do so much, Are you still mine? I need your love. I need your love. God speed your love to me.
Oh I could hide 'neath the wing Of the blue bird as she sings The six-o'clock alarm would never ring But six rings and I rise Wipe the sleep out of my eyes The shaving razor's cold and it stings
Cheer up sleepy Jean Oh what can it mean to a Daydream believer and a Homecoming queen
You once thought of me As a white knight on his steed Now you know how happy I can be Oh, our good times start and end Without all i want to spend But how much baby do we really need
Cheer up sleepy Jean Oh what can it mean to a Daydream believer and a Homecoming queen
When this old world starts getting me down And people are just too much for me to face I climb way up to the top of the stairs And all my cares just drift right into space On the roof, it's peaceful as can be And there the world below can't bother me Let me tell you now
When I come home feelin' tired and beat I go up where the air is fresh and sweet (up on the roof) I get away from the hustling crowd And all that rat-race noise down in the street (up on the roof) On the roof, the only place I know Where you just have to wish to make it so Let's go up on the roof (up on the roof)
At night the stars put on a show for free And, darling, you can share it all with me
I keep a-tellin' you
Right smack dab in the middle of town I've found a paradise that's trouble proof (up on the roof) And if this world starts getting you down There's room enough for two Up on the roof (up on the roof) Up on the roo-oo-oof (up on the roof) Oh, come on, baby (up on the roof) Oh, come on, honey (up on the roof)
Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling From glen to glen, and down the mountain side. The summer's gone, and all the roses falling, It's you, it's you must go and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow, Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow, It's I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow, Oh, Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so!
But when ye come, and all the flowers are dying, If I am dead, as dead I well may be, You'll come and find the place where I am lying, And kneel and say an Ave there for me. And I shall hear, though soft you tread above me, And all my grave will warmer, sweeter be, For you will bend and tell me that you love me, And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me!
