Wings

if you've always
had a dream
but you've been afraid
that it would
not come true
fall in love
and you will find
that it's just
what you've been
dreaming of

a first love
never comes

twice

so take this
tender advice
when it comes
try your wings
and fly to
the one
you love

Sometime

touch my hand
it's only me, listen
i'm here, come to stand
in sultry fields, with you

and now, old dummy day
i know is over this way
i'm laughing
saw you gonna kiss me
you see, yeah as i said

one day she won't
a lonely bird, alone
judgement day
saw the world it's gone
unheard, sold the sea
a lot how it feels to me

i hate the word it's sad to see
i take your weight
and your heart fades away
today a renegade
to lay in woods, by the pheasants
i mean it, you don't
force on my head
kill our nightmare

Later

a lonely bird, a lonely bird
a lonely bird, alone
colour me
cover me in the colour that reminds you
solemnly
could make the same mistake
and you would never know
that i am, that i am
alone, now

something, something tells me

that you have something
on, all of us now you're heaven
taking over me now
colour me hate
raw little nerve
colour me and pull us
only home, me home

hold the sun down
hold the moon down
leave me to rest
want the world man
too the words out, only relief is
to slip through the nets
hold a minute and stop a minute
and go, oh oh, hold a minute
you said to me, said to me and
breath, breath, breath
you said it to me
sometime later

Goodnight

goodnight ladies
ladies goodnight
it's time to say
goodbye, let me tell you, now

goodnight ladies
ladies goodnight
it's time to say
goodbye

now, all night long
you've been drinking your tequilla
but now you've sucked
your lemon peel dry
so why not get high, high, high and
goodnight ladies
ladies goodnight

goodnight ladies
ah, ladies goodnight
it's time to say
goodbye

goodnight sweet ladies
ah, ladies goodnight
it's time to say
goodbye, bye-bye

ah, we've been together
for the longest time
but now it's time to get high
come on, let's get high, high, high
and goodnight ladies
ladies goodnight

Ladies

oh, i'm still missing my other half
oh, it must be something i did in the past
don't it just make you wanna laugh
it's a lonely saturday night

oh, nobody calls me on the telephone
i put another record on my stereo
but i'm still singing a song of you
it's a lonely saturday night

now, if i was an actor
or a dancer who is glamorous
then, you know
amorous life would soon be mine
but now the tinsel light of star break
is all that's left to applaud my heart break
and eleven o'clock i watch the network news

oh, woh, woh, something tells me
that you're really gone
you said we could be friends
but that's not what's not what i want
ah, anyway, my tv-dinner's almost done
it's a lonely saturday night
i mean to tell you
it's a lonely saturday night
one more word
it's a lonely saturday night

With Or

see the stone set in your eyes
see the thorn twist in your side
i wait for you

sleight of hand and twist of fate
on a bed of nails she makes me wait
and i wait without you

with or without you
with or without you

through the storm we reach the shore
you give it all but i want more
and i'm waiting for you

with or without you
i can't live
with or without you

and you give yourself away
and you give
and you give yourself away

Without You

my hands are tied
my body bruised

shes got me with
nothing to win and
nothing left to lose

and you give yourself away
and you give
and you give yourself away

with or without you
i can't live
with or without you

with or without you
i can't live
with or without you

Goodbye

did i disappoint you or let you down?
should i be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'cause i saw the end before we'd begun
yes i saw you were blinded and i knew i had won
so i took what's mine by eternal right
took your soul out into the night
it may be over but it won't stop there
i am here for you if you'd only care

you touched my heart you touched my soul
you changed my life and all my goals
and love is blind and that i knew when
my heart was blinded by you
i've kissed your lips and held your head
shared your dreams and shared your bed
i know you well, i know your smell
i've been addicted to you

goodbye my lover
goodbye my friend
you have been the one
you have been the one for me

My Lover

i am a dreamer but when i wake
you can't break my spirit
it's my dreams you take
and as you move on, remember me
remember us and all we used to be
i've seen you cry, i've seen you smile
i've watched you sleeping for a while
i'd be the father of your child
I'd spend a lifetime with you
i know your fears and you know mine
we've had our doubts but now we're fine
and i love you, i swear that's true
i cannot live without you

goodbye my lover
goodbye my friend
you have been the one
you have been the one for me

and i still hold your hand in mine
in mine when i'm asleep
and i will bear my soul in time
when i'm kneeling at your feet
goodbye my lover
goodbye my friend
you have been the one
you have been the one for me
i'm so hollow, baby, i'm so hollow
i'm so, i'm so, i'm so hollow

Moon

[there was once a very lovely, very frightened girl]

.

moon river
wider than a mile
i'm crossing you
in style some day
oh, dream maker
you heart breaker
wherever you're going
i'm going your way

River

[she lived alone except for a nameless cat]
.

two drifters off
to see the world
there's such a lot
of world to see
we're after
the same rainbow's end
waiting 'round the bend
my huckleberry friend
moon river and me
