If you want to ride a rainbow, come with me,
I will take you to the magic purple sea. Maybe we will find a thousand sugar fish; When you eat them they will grant your every wish. And if you want your friends to come, Then bring them all along... If you want to catch a star then walk my way, I will take you where the night is always day. You can follow me if you really try; Maybe we will find a rainbow to teach it to fly. And if you want your friends to come, Then bring them all along... I will take you through the magic dancing wood, And I will take you where the goblins are all good. I will take you where the elfs and pixies do sing, And I will take you 'round the magic fairy ring. And if you want your friends to come, Then bring them all along... Bow your head and let your eyelids close on down. Where we're going you won't need to bring your frown: You will find that all the things that I have said Will come true when you are lying in your bed. And if you want your friends to come, Then bring them all along... |

Oh Sandy Grey, are you going away?
Leave me a message before parting. Time has changed you and the things that pain you Are the things you think of as you're starting. Oh Sandy Grey, it's only this I'll pray: That you might stay here one more day in laughter. Won't you hang around and hold me, repeat all the lies you told me? - Do your rambling after. Oh Sandy Grey, whatever made you want to stay? And now what makes you want to be a-leaving? Is it the same thing they found when they laid your father down, Or are your reasons even worth retrieving? Oh Sandy Grey, don't leave me just today. Don't think on the road you'll be a-going. Think of all the time and the days we've had to mind, Of the future, there's no way of knowing. Oh Sandy Grey, I thought I heard you say That you ain't heard one word that I've been speaking. There's no use in trying you escaping from my mind And I'll never see the world you're seeking. Oh Sandy Grey, are you going away? Leave me a message before parting. Time has changed you and the things that pain you Are the things you think of as you're starting. |

In a foreign city once again
You waved weekly in the night The early sun of London morning Burned the darkness with unanswered light But morning found you crying Waiting for a woman Where she left you in an empty state of mind Waiting not for her but for relief from passing time. And a young friend talking softly As the mist keeps tumbling down But the woman waiting for him near Stayed and told you of the peace that could be found And a fallen heart was woken In your tired waiting time And you thought you might begin again From all the ashes of your mind. And though he used no poetry His words are weaving songs And the peace they were recalling Were good roads that you might have walked along And the skies you saw were all the same Although his words were not your own But the words and images you've spoken Are the ashes from a peace you'd never known |

Now woman, don't you feel sad when you see your life go round
And you realise that you've been drinking all of your years like wine? You're gambling with time and you know you just can't win But still you feel that somehow you've just got to keep on trying And woman, it's your heart, I hear crying. Now the young man by your side is your husband, or so you say In reality, he's a link with a past you just can't replace You tell the world you're happy when you're lying in his arms Oh but his youth has made you hate to see his face And woman, it's your heart, I see crying. Now you're standing like some tree oh and the blossom has blown away And the last leaf has gone crumbling, tumbling towards the ground You have nothing to teach me, just have nothing at all to say Except to keep on telling me about all the happiness that you do think you have found And woman, it's your heart, I hear crying |

Well I wish I could think of some cliche to mouth
To make our parting seem less sad. But if I told you lies, or promised you the moon The truth would come trickling from my eyes So run honey run, and hide in the wind And never stop to look inside your mind. Well I wish I could wash all my weeping blues away And watch them disappear on morning tide But I seek after sword, after sounds of the sea A charm forever around my mind So run honey run, and hide in the wind And never stop to look inside your mind. And I wish I could fly like a bat from a cave Through darkness of my ignorance to light I'd forever live on the echoes of our love And die like some star burning bright And run honey run, and hide in the wind And never stop to look inside your mind |

Although I've been away so many lonely nights
You know I'm back today I'm back to stay in your arms And though I've been around and lived the life I said I loved You know without you Honey, all I do is worth nothing And girlie, don't cry for me. Although there might be other people in my life Honey, on my mind You will always find there's only you And though you say you'll journey to some foreign land I'll remember you Yes, and I'll be true to your memory And girlie, don't cry for me. And when, at last, you do come wandering home to me I might look at you But it will be through the weeks between And when I hold you, it might not be you I have In the passing days We might both have changed to something new And girlie, don't cry for me. And though I've been away so many lonely nights You know I'm back today I'm back to stay in your arms And though I've been around and lived the life I said I loved You know without you Honey, all I do is worth nothing And girlie, don't cry for me |

Rolling home
Sun's around my shoulders Rolling home I feel it getting colder In my ear I hear the birds cry Cry into the land While beneath my feet the ship flies Flies into the sand. Rolling home Rolling home Thoughts returning Thoughts of what I told her Thoughts returning Thoughts as I get older. In my mind I hear her crying Crying in the wind In my mind I hear her crying Her tears, they wheel and spin Rolling home I'm rolling home. Golden dawns Are shining all around me Golden dawns That really think they've found me And I know I will be happy And laugh behind the song And I know I will be happy When she and I are one Rolling home I'm rolling home |

On this June morning
I give you warning I might just fly away across the dawn I looked into my lover's eyes There I saw the sunrise There I saw the birth of something new And suddenly, I'm not the same little boy Cos I can't see the people that I meet All I see is her. Since the time she went away I just exist from day to day I can't live, I can't love without her near Sitting here in my darkened room Whistling through the velvet gloom Wondering what the hell I'm doing here. For suddenly, I'm not the same little boy And I can't see the people that I meet All I see is her. There's just me and my conscience now There's no one to tell me why or how I fell away; it's time I must return We might recover what has been Turn all the pieces round again Change and rearrange, begin again. And suddenly, I'm not the same little boy Cos I can't see the people that I meet All I see is her. On this June morning I give you warning I might just fly away across the dawn Since the day she went away I just exist from day to day I can't live, I can't love without her near. For suddenly, I'm not the same little boy And I can't see the people that I meet All I see is her |

I see in the green stream that meanders round my mind
A girl standing with arms so warm and kind She reaches out, she calls my name But I just can't get through. I know that she's waiting, in a land of sunny rain And I know that I'll find my girl and it's there I will remain I'll lay right down, and there I'll stay Cos there is paradise. I've often felt her breathing, as I rolled round your streets And so I look around me, but we'd never chance to meet The golden girl with eyes of green A girl just meant for me. I see in the green stream that meanders round my mind A girl standing with arms so warm and kind She's standing there, she calls my name But I just can't get through |

I'm putting you right out of my life
Ain't going to see you for quite some time I'm fading away in the morning sun Maybe behind it, I'll find someone. Baby, why do you sneak into my mind Why do you haunt me all the time Why don't you go and leave me be Why don't you go and leave me free? This time Stop me if you think you can. Oh, we had a love that lived and died When it was over there was no one to cry So now that it's gone without one tear I reckon it's time that I was not here. Baby, why do you sneak into my mind Why do you haunt me all the time Why don't you go and leave me be Why don't you go and leave me free? This time Stop me if you think you can. Been flitting around your scene too long Reckon it's time I was travelling on Oh baby, if you don't want me to go Why are you whispering my name so low. Baby, why do you sneak into my mind Why do you haunt me all the time Why don't you go and leave me be Why don't you go and leave me free? This time Stop me if you think you can |

It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If you don't know by now It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, baby It just don't matter anyhow When the rooster crows at the break of dawn Look out of your window, I'll be gone You're the reason that I'm travelling on Don't think twice, it's alright. It ain't no use you calling out my name, girl Like you never done before It ain't no use you calling out my name, girl I just can't hear you any more I wish there was something that you might do or say To make me change my mind and stay We never did too much talking anyway Don't think twice, it's alright. It ain't no use you turning on your light, babe The light that I never knew It ain't no use you turning on your light, baby Cos I'm on the dark side of the road Well, I'm not saying that you treated me unkind You could have done better, I just don't mind You just kind of wasted my precious time Don't think twice, it's alright. I'm walking down my long lonesome road, babe Where I'm bound I can't tell Goodbye is too good a word, baby So I'll just say Fare thee well. I'm thinking and I'm wondering all the way down the road I once loved a woman, a child I'm told I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul Don't think twice Don't think twice Don't think twice, it's alright |
