The Moody Blues - Voices In The Sky [compilation] (1985) by The Moody Blues (보컬) on maniadb.com

Be it sight, sound, smell, or touch,
There?s something inside that we need so much.
The sight of a touch or the scent of a sound,
Or the strength of an oak with roots deep in the ground.
The wonder of flowers to be covered and then
To burst up through tarmac to the sun again.
Or to fly to the sun without burning a wing -
To lie in a meadow and hear the grass sing.
To have all these things in our memories hall
And to use them to help us to find? Ha ha ha!

Ride! Ride my see-saw!
Take this place on this trip just for me.
Ride! Take a free ride!
Take my place. Have my seat. It?s for free!
I worked like a slave for years ?br />Sweat so hard just to end my fears.
Not to end my life a poor man
But by now, I know I should have run.

Run! Run my last race!
Take my place. Have this number of mine.
Run! Run like a fire!
Don?t you run in ?in the *****
Let?s go where the **** pass.
******** but a second class.
School taught one and one is two,
But by now, that answer just ain?t true.
Aah aah aah aah. Aah aah aah aah. Aah aah aah aah aah.
Aah aah aah aah. Aah aah aah aah. Aah aah aah aah aah.

My world is spinning around.
Everything is lost that I?d found.
People, run! Come; ride with me.
Let?s find another place that?s free!
Ride! Ride my see-saw!
Take this place on this trip just for me.
Ride! Take a free ride!
Take my place. Have my seat. It?s for free!
Ride my see-saw!
Ride! Ride!
Ride?my see-saw!
Ride?my see-saw!

When I took a little loving from you,
Oh I never thought about the hurting inside,
But I took a little more than I should,
Oh why? Can't explain that I ever would
Let you slip through my fingers,
Let you escape like yesterday.
I would appreciate you knowing,
I thought your love had come to stay.
Talking out of turn,
Shot to pieces,
When will I learn?
Talking out of turn,
Shot to pieces,
When will I learn?
But I took a little more of your each day
When I didn't see that I was breaking you apart
With angry words of love I didn't mean.
Oh why? Can't believe that I ever would
Talk myself out of tomorrow,
Talked like a fool to yesterday
And, as the evening loses colour,
Your love began to fade away.
Talking out of turn,
Shot to pieces,
When will I learn?
Talking out of turn,
Shot to pieces,
When will I learn?
Talking out of turn.
Talking out of turn.
If I upset you,
I didn't mean to hurt you,
I didn't mean to make you cry.
I don't need an alibi
To start me talking out of turn
When I took a little loving from you.
Oh I can't believe that I ever would
Let you slip through my fingers,
Let you escape like yesterday.
I would appreciate you knowing,
I thought your love had come to stay
Talking out of turn,
Shot to pieces,
When will I learn?
Talking out of turn,
Shot to pieces,
When will I learn?

Just like the driftwood of a dream
Left of the seashore of sleep
Just like the words that wouldn't rhyme
Lost in the desert of time
Time waits for no one at all
No, not even you
You thought you'd seen it all before
You really thought you knew

I don't remember what was said
In the confusion that night
I only know what's on my mind
What's in the future we will decide
Time waits for no one at all
No, not even you
You thought you'd seen it all before
You really thought you knew

I've shattered the illusion
Of fortune and of fame
But darling now I know you
Life could never be the same
Oh no... don't leave me driftwood
On the shore

Time waits for no one my love
No, not even you
You thought you'd seen it all before
You really thought you knew

I've shattered the illusion
Of forture and of fame
I'm waking up
I'm reaching up
I'm getting up from this game
Oh no... don't leave me driftwood
On the shore
Oh no... don't, don't leave me driftwood
On the shore...

Work away today, work away tomorrow.
Never comes the day for my love and me.
I feel her gently sighing as the evening slips away.
If only you knew what's inside of me now
You wouldn't want to know me somehow,
But
You will love me tonight,
We alone will be alright,
In the end

CHORUS
Give just a little bit more
Take a little bit less


>From each other tonight
Admit what you're feeling
And see what's in front of you,
It's never out of your sight.
We all know it's true,
You know it's true,
We all know it's true.

(REPEAT)

I keep on wand'ring on the face of this earth
Meeting so many people who are trying to be free
And while I wander I hear so many words
Language barriers broken now we've found the key

And if you want this world of yours to turn about you
And you're the only other person to know
Don't tell me
I'm Just a Singer in a Rock 'n' Roll Band

How can we understand
Riots for the people by the people who are only destroying themselves
And if you see a frightened person who is frightened by the people
Who are (scorching) scorching this earth
(Scorching) scorching this earth

I keep on wan'dring on the face of this earth
Meeting so many people who are trying to be free
And while I wander I hear so many words
Language barriers broken now we've found the key

And if you want the wind of change to blow around you
And you can see exactly what to do
Please tell me
I'm Just a Singer in a Rock 'n' Roll Band

How can we understand
Riots for the people by the people who are only destroying themselves
And if you see a frightened person who is frightened by the people
Who are (scorching) scorching this earth
(Scorching) scorching this earth

Music is the traveller crossing our world
Meeting so many people, bridging the seas
I'm Just a Singer in a Rock 'n' Roll Band (2x)
Music is the traveller crossing our world
Meeting so many people, bridging the seas
I'm Just the Singer in a Rock 'n' Roll Band
We're just the singers in a rock 'n' roll band

Long time no see
Short time for you and me
So fine, so good
We're on the road
LIke you knew we would

First night, so long
A state of mind
What can go wrong
We're here, the time is right
To rock 'n' roll
Right throough the night

Make it work out
Make it work
Make it work out
Make it work out
For each other tonight

Stage fright, candle light
You can't let go
Tonight's the night
Came back for you
Glad to see
That you came too

There's a place a Gemini dream
There's no escaping from the love we have seen
So come with me, turn night today
You gonna wake up
You know you gonna wake up in a Gemini dream

Turned round to see
Where we've been
And what we believe
In life, love
Take a chance
See it through
You'll be glad
That you came too

There's a place a Gemini dream
There's no escaping from the love we have seen
So come with me, turn night to day
You gonna wake up
You know you gonna wake up in a Gemini dream

Long time no see
The lights go up
For you and me
We're here
The time is right
To rock 'n' roll
Right through the night

Believing it
Wanting it

Make it work out
For each other tonight

Long time no see
Short time for you and me
So fine so far so good
We're on the road
Like you knew we would

Won't you take me back to school?
I need to learn the golden rule.
Won't you lay it on the line?
I need to hear it just one more time.

Oh, won't you tell me again?
Oh, can you feel it?
Oh, won't you tell me again tonight?

Each and every heart it seems,
Is bounded by a world of dreams.
Each and every rising sun,
Is greeted by a lonely one.

Oh, won't you tell me again?
Oh, can you feel it?
Oh, won't you tell me again tonight?

Cause out on the ocean of life my love.
There a so many storms we must rise above.
Can you hear the spirit calling, as it's carried across the waves?
You're already falling it's calling you back to face the music.
And the song that is coming through.
You're already falling the one that it's calling is you.

Make a promise take a vow.
And trust your feelings it's easy now.
Understand The Voice within.
And feel a change already beginning.

Oh, won't you tell me again?
Oh, can you feel it?
Oh, won't you tell me again tonight? Tonight?

Oh, won't you tell me again?
Oh, can you feel it?
Oh, won't you tell me again tonight?

And how many words have I got to say?
And how many times will it be this way?
With your arms around the future and your back up against the past.
You're already falling it's calling you on to face the music.
And the song that is coming through.
You're already falling the one that it's calling is you.

Each and every heart it seems,
Is bounded by a world of dreams.
Each and every rising sun,
Is greeted by, a lonely, lonely one.

Won't you tell me again?
Oh, can you feel it?
Oh, won't you tell me again tonight?

Since it began I've got one dream and really It's my only blessing
If I can come through then so can you
And you will find there's no regretting
Things that you want from your life's font
Will never let your spirit grow
Come back to earth for what it's worth
For you've been dreaming of the ceiling not a home

I've been doing my best
What else can I do?
Is there something I've missed
That will help you through

I've reached the top of my wall
I've found another way to fall

For some short time
For a while you and I were joined to eternity
Then we're split in two back to me and you
Like the rain rising from the sea
Rising from the sea

We all can see what we shall be
But knowing's really not controlling

With time perhaps I'll pass the traps and find some peace and understanding
After you've come and while you're gone
You leave me guessing - It's depressing
Never to know the way to go to find some time along a little less pressing
So you just have to laugh
When it hurts so much
You're so far away and so hard to touch

I've reached the top of my wall
I've found another way to fall

Since it began I've got one dream and really It's my only blessing
If I can come through then so can you
And you will find there's no regretting
Things that you want from your life's font
Will never let your spirit grow
Come back to earth for what it's worth
For you've been dreaming of the ceiling not a home

I've been doing my best
What else can I do?
Is there something I've missed
That will help you through

I've reached the top of my wall
I've found another way to fall

Why do we never get an answer
When we're knocking at the door
With a thousand million questions
About hate and death and war?
'Cause when we stop and look around us
There is nothing that we need
In a world of persecution that is burning in its greed

Why do we never get an answer
When we're knocking at the door
Because the truth is hard to swallow
That's what the war of love is for

It's not the way that you say it
When you do those things to me
It's more the way that you mean it
When you tell me what will be
And when you stop and think about it
You won't believe it's true
That all the love you've been giving
Has all been meant for you

I'm looking for someone to change my life
I'm looking for a miracle in my life
And if you could see what it's done to me
To lose the love I knew
Could safely lead me through

Between the silence of the mountains
And the crashing of the sea
There lies a land I once lived in
And she's waiting there for me
But in the grey of the morning
My mind becomes confused
Between the dead and the sleeping
And the road that I must choose

I'm looking for someone to change my life
I'm looking for a miracle in my life
And if you could see what it's done to me
To lose the love I knew
Could safely lead me to
The land that I once knew
To learn as we grow old
The secrets of our soul

It's not the way that you say it when you do those things to me
It's more the way you really mean it when you tell me what will be

Why do we never get an answer
When we're knocking at the door
With a thousand million questions
About hate and death and war
'Cause when we stop and look around us
There is nothing that we need
In a world of persecution that is burning in its greed

.....

Why do we never get an answer
When we're knocking at the door

The lights go down ?the stage is set.
A man in the wings breaks out in sweat.
A backstage-joker spiked his coke while
The dressing room was full of smoke.
A crowd of fools got him high!
He?s afraid he?s gonna die.
He?s the apple of their eye?br />He steps into the remaining light ?br />The crowd go wild ?he?s outta sight.
Arms held high in a sign of peace.
His manager signed a one-night lease.
The house is full, getting high!
He?s afraid he?s gonna die.
He?s the apple of their eye?br />He struts, he strolls,
His love is rock and roll.
He?s the veteran cosmic rocker!
He steps into the remaining light ?br />The crowd go wild ?he?s outta sight.
Arms held high in a sign of peace.
His manager signed a one-night lease.
The crowd are full, getting high!
He?s afraid he?s gonna die.
He?s the apple of their eye?br />He struts, he strolls,
His life is rock and roll.
?br />He?s the veteran cosmic rocker!
He?s afraid that he will die!

Isn't life strange
A turn of the page
Can read like before
Can we ask for more
Each day passes by
How hard man will try
The sea will not wait
You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry

Wish I could be in your heart
To be one with your love
Wish I could be in your eyes
Looking back there your were and here we are

Isn't love strange
A word we arrange
With no thought or care
Maker of despair
Each breath that we breathe
With love we must weave
To make us as one
You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry

Wish I could be in your heart
To be one with your love
Wish I could be in your eyes
Looking back there you were, and here we are

Isn't life starnge
A turn of the page
A book without light
Unless with love we write
To throw it away
To lose just a day
The quicksand of time
You know it makes me wqnt to cry cry, cry

Wish I could be in your heart
To be one with your love
Wish I could be in your eyes
Looking back there you were and here we are

Nights in white satin never reaching the end
Letters I've written never meaning to send
Beauty I'd always missed with these eyes before
Just what the truth is I can't say any more
Cause I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you

Gazing at people some hand in hand
Just what I'm going through they can't understand
Some try to tell me thoughts they cannot defend
Just what you want to be you'll be in the end
And I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you, oh
I love you
