Look to the mirror
I can tell no lies
Time drawing nearer
Still I wonder why
You are the giver
Me I never try
Now we’re together
Still I wonder why
Please can you tell me
When you’re by my side
And when my eyes see
Will I wonder why
If you are with me
I can only try
To find the answer
In the words that ask the question
Why […]

Can’t you see?
All of the things that I’m trying to say
Are inside of me
I never thought I’d be feeling this way
But I think you’ve known all the time
Your love is stranger than mine
Seeing you
I can’t believe in a love that won’t leave
I don’t want you to
Be anyone that you don’t wanna be
But I think you’ve […]

Sleepless nights, restless days
Memories of her gentle ways
Love locked out looks for a home
A place to find a shelter from the storm
She said you are the air I breathe
The life I love, the dream I weave
Without a word, with just a touch
Now I realize you meant so much
Been awake so long
I feel like I belong
With […]

Time on your hands
You doodle the day
Shuffle your feet
And turn on the news
To hear what they might say
They’ve made a machine
A new fangled device
They’re lighting the fuse
There’s no need to worry
Your world will be alright
Time for a smoke
A pint and a joke
You muddle on through
Silently screaming
“What can I do?”
Till time trips you out
Larking about
Blows you […]

High flying glider, spread your wings
Flying high on a cloud
Born on the air, spiral around
So busy making circles
You never touch the ground
You see the sea, feel the sky
Don’t know where you go when you die
Don’t know the answers
To what’s in my mind
Riding on the wind and turning with the tide
life takes you up, it brings […]

Dark clouds before our eyes
Can’t face the morning skies
Day comes a day too soon
I’m waiting for that silver moon
Maybe I’m wrong
But I’m feeling like another night
Would make it alright
Twilight is fading through
Seems like I’m fading too
How can I believe it’s real
When nothing starts to stop this wheel?

See the lights out on the water
Come and go, to and fro
In the time it takes to find them
You can live, you can die
And nothing stops the river as it goes by
Nothing stops the river as it goes
All alone and all together
Every day, come what may
By the time we find each other
We can live, we […]

The sun has left the sky
Now you can close your eyes
Leave the world behind until tomorrow
The dream is like a song
It leads you on and on
The piper plays his tune so you must follow
So far beyond the sky
Not knowing how or why
You realize this feeling is forever
And though another day
May steal your dreams away
You and […]

You got me runnin’ goin’ out of my mind,
You got me thinkin’ that I’m wastin’ my time.
Don’t bring me down,no no no no no,
I’ll tell you once more before I get off the floor
Don’t bring me down.
You wanna stay out with your fancy friends.
I’m tellin’ you it’s go to be the end,
Don’t bring me down,no […]

You’re sailing softly through the sun
in a broken stone age dawn.
You fly so high.
I get a strange magic,
oh, what a strange magic,
oh, it’s a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
got a strange magic.
You’re walking meadows in my mind,
making waves across my time,
oh no, oh no.
I get a strange magic,
oh, what a strange magic,
oh, it’s a strange […]

Hello–how are you
Have you been alright, through all those lonely nights,
That’s what I’d say, I’d tell you everything,
If you’d pick up that telephone.
Hey–how you feelin’
Are you still the same
Don’t you realize the things we did were all for real not a dream,
I just can’t believe
They’ve all faded out of view.
I look into the sky
(The love […]

In this life I’ve seen everything I can see woman,
I’ve seen lovers flying through the air hand in hand
I’ve seen babies dancing in the midnight sun,
And I’ve seen dreams that came from the heavenly skies above
I’ve seen old men crying at their own grave sides
And I’ve seen pigs all sitting watching, picture slides
But I never […]

Sailin’ away on the crest of a wave
It’s like magic
Rollin’ and ridin’ and slippin’ & slidin’
It’s magic
CHORUS
And you, and your sweet desire,
You took me, higher and higher
It’s a livin’ thing,
It’s a terrible thing to lose
It’s a given thing
What a terrible thing to lose.
Making believe this is what you’ve conceived
From your worst day,
Moving in line when […]

On the seven seas there was aphantom ship acoming,
Shinin’ in the dead of night,
I heard the crew a hummin’
Tunes that sounded like the Rolling Stones and Leonard Cohen.
But they didn’t know the words,
So I assumed that they was foreign.
CHORUS
But I heard them just the same doctor let me teach ‘em,
I just wanna please ‘em, doctor […]

Painted lady, stop that closin’ in on me,
Painted lady, you’re supposed to be a dream,
Painted lady, you better stay away from me.
Painted lady, why you loosinin’ my tie,
Painted lady, what’s that twinkle in your eye,
Painted lady, you better stay away from me.
Painted lady, with your jewels and your beads,
Painted lady, don’t you do these dirty […]

Daylight comes to those who live
But those who die they never see the sun come
Shining through their window pane they pass away.
Silly girl to be a fool, you didn’t play the golden rule,
‘Cos once you’re through with one world,
There’s another waiting there.
CHORUS
Help me such a lonely soul,
In dreams to leave behind the world.
Mr. Kingdom help […]

Me I’m just a poor boy, from across the far southland,
And I’ve traveled many days to reach this place to mke my stand,
I fell in with a merry band, and drank away the hours.
CHORUS
Rollin’ on, I’ve been rollin’ on,
And my head is high, from the battle won,
Laid down my life for the Greenwood
The city boys, […]

Summer days, where did you go,
You’ve let me down so bad,
Clouds fill the sky,
Gone is the dream
My happy hunting ground.
Wild buffalo played and I never saw a rainy day.
But it looks like summer days ain’t coming back.
March April May, June and July,
You took me for a fall.
Big chief he lie,
Cold wind blows cool, so cold […]

Hey Boy Blue, can’t you hear all the noise, it’s for you.
All the town’s waiting there, let us go.
There’s a show like you ain’t seen before.
Weclome home, where you been all these years, look around.
All the crowd is in tears,
It’s so good to see you in the streets of your town
CHORUS
Hey Boy Blue is back.
Hey […]

Midnight on the water.
I saw the ocean’s daughter.
Walking on a wave’s chicane,
staring as she called my name.
And I can’t get it out of my head,
no, I can’t get it out of my head.
Now my old world is gone for dead
‘cos I can’t get it out of my head.
Breakdown on the shoreline,
can’t move, it’s an ebbtide.
Morning […]

When the truth is found to be lies
and all the joys within you dies
don’t you want somebody to love
don’t you need somebody to love
wouldn’t you love somebody to love
you better find somebody to love
When the garden flowers baby are dead yes
and your mind is full of red
don’t you want somebody to love
don’t you need somebody […]

One pill makes you larger
And one pill makes you small,
And the ones that mother gives you
Don’t do anything at all.
Go ask Alice
When she’s ten feet tall.
And if you go chasing rabbits
And you know you’re going to fall,
Tell ‘em a hookah smoking caterpillar
Has given you the call.
Call Alice
When she was just small.
When the men on the […]

Won’t you try
won’t you try
won’t you try
find a way to need someone
find a way to see
find a way to need someone and the sunshine will set you free
won’t you try
won’t you try
won’t you try
with love before we’re gone
saturday afternoon
saturday afternoon
when your head is feeling fine
you can ride inside our car
I will give you caps of […]
