So you want to be a rock and roll star? Then listen now to what I say Just get an electric guitar Then take some time and learn how to play And with your hair swung right And your pants too tight It's gonna be all right Then it's time to go downtown Where the agent man won't let you down Sell your soul to the company Who are waiting there to sell plastic ware And in a week or two If you make the charts The girls'll tear you apart The price you paid for your riches and fame Was it all a strange game? You're a little insane The money, the fame, and the public acclaim Don't forget who you are You're a rock and roll star |

Have you seen her face? With her eyes reflect The colors in the sky On one familiar place To be swept into Whenever she's close by Makes me wonder why Run by, don't turn back Can't hide from the look in her eye Must be the way she walks A style made up to capture all ahe needs No time to spend on this talk If your luck runs dry She might see you tonight Everything inside (in sight???) Run by, don't turn back Can't hide from the look in her eye Run by, don't turn back Can't hide from the look in her eye You'll find you're locked in her spell All the sights and sounds Your senses will be found And only time will tell How much love can be To wait so patiently Wait and see Run by, don't turn back Can't hide from the look in her eye |

C.T.A. 102 year
Over year receiving you Signals tell us that you're there We can hear them loud and clear We just want to let you know That we're ready for to go Out into the universe, We don't care who's been there first On a radio telescope Science tells us that there's hope Life on other planets might exist! ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By R.

I think that maybe I'm dreaming
I smell cinnamon and spices I hear music everywhere All around kaleidoscope of colour I think that maybe I'm dreaming Maids pass gracefully in laughter Wine colored flowers in their hair Flags call from lands I've never been to I think that maybe I'm dreaming Sun flash on a soda prism Bright jewels on the ladies flashing Eyes catch on a shiny prism Hear ye the crying of the vendors Fruit for sale, wax candles for to burn Fires flare, soon it will be nightfall I think that maybe I'm dreaming I think that maybe I'm dreaming I think that maybe I'm dreaming |

Don't say you love me
Don't say you care You're so far away Telephone communication Only a three minute elation When I hear your voice Through love and trust It's gonna work out fine The only pain I feel Is all this time between You and me, you and me All the days have turned to years Only emphasize my fears Since you said goodbye I can hear your voice at night I can read the words you write It's only love Through love and trust It's gonna work out fine The only pain I feel Is all this time between You and me, you and me Now don't say you love me Don't say you care You're so far away I can hear your voice at night I can read the words you write It's only love Through love and trust It's gonna work out fine The only pain I feel Is all this time between You and me, you and me Through love and trust It's gonna work out fine The only pain I feel Is all this time between You and me, you and me |

Everybody's been burned before Everybody knows the pain Anyone in this place Can tell you to your face Why you shouldn't try to love someone Everybody knows it never works Everybody knows and me I know that door that shuts Just before you get to the dream You see... I know all too well How to turn, how to run How to hide behind A bitter wall of blue But you die inside If you choose to hide So I guess instead, I'll love you |

One day you came into my mind
And everything looked as though It was all mine. Loveliness to gaze upon To feel your magic Pulling me away. I thought I was on top of it all. Everyone else was so small. And I knew what you wanted to do, I knew what you wanted to do. Often think of times When all your thoughts and words Come close to making me lose my mind. Moment now recalling All the time involving Minutes that we spent alone. I thought I was on top of it all. Everyone else was so small. And I knew what you wanted to do, I knew what you wanted to do. One day you came into my mind And everything looked as though It was all mine. Loveliness to gaze upon To feel your magic Pulling me away. I thought I was on top of it all. Everyone else was so small. And I knew what you wanted to do, I knew what you wanted to do. |

Once upon a time
There was a garden On a high hill Green and blossomin' round Against the sea And there the sun came And the rain pourin' down Garden grew And flourished And splattered Bits of color on the ground And it took shape And symmetry And all of life around But there came winds Driven and howling There came snow And I feared for the garden So I built a wall And I built another And roofed it over Thick and strong And kept it from the Slings and arrows Of outrageous fortune The killing cold Could not get in But when the sun came And the gentle rain of spring They could not reach the garden Behind those walls It would have died Safely, securely died But as I longed And as I learned I tore the walls all down The garden still lives |

E C#m Abm Crimson flames tied through my ears A B E Rollin' high and mighty traps E C#m Abm Pounced with fire on flaming roads A B Using ideas as my maps C#m Abm "We'll meet on edges, soon," said I A B Proud 'neath heated brow. E A E Ah, but I was so much older then, A B E (intro riff twice) I'm younger than that now. Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth "Rip down all hate," I screamed Lies that life is black and white Spoke from my skull. I dreamed Romantic facts [flanks] of musketeers Foundationed deep, somehow. Ah, but I was so much older then, bI'm younger than that now. [The next two verses were left out by The Byrds] Girls' faces formed the forward path From phony jealousy To memorizing politics Of ancient history Flung down by corpse evangelists Unthought of, though, somehow. Ah, but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now. A self-ordained professor's tongue Too serious to fool Spouted out that liberty Is just equality in school "Equality," I spoke the word As if a wedding vow. Ah, but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now. [The Byrds pick it up here] In a soldier's stance, I aimed my hand At the mongrel dogs who teach Fearing not that I'd become my enemy In the instant that I preach My pathway led [Sisters fled] by confusion boats Mutiny from stern to bow. Ah, but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now. [12-string guitar solo followed by the refrain] Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats Too noble to neglect Deceived me into thinking I had something to protect Good and bad, I define these terms Quite clear, no doubt, somehow. Ah, but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now. |

One day she came along, I didn´t know her name
My friends said to me watch out for the game I didn´t want to believe all the things they said It seemed to be the right time a love afffair instead Walkin´ down the beach, kickin´ up the sand Not so far away wonderin´ where they´ll land We talked of things to do and places that we´d tame A one with a love to share with a girl who had no name who had no name Then it came the time they said when all the good went bad She walked into the night, it didn´t make me sad I felt my friends´ advice echo through my soul A one with a love to share with a girl who had no name who had no name |

Keep sayin' no to her since she was a baby Keep sayin' no to her, not even maybe Why? Why? You say there's a limit there, she can't go past that She don't believe you, she don't think that's where it's at Why? Why? Say she can't change that, it's the way you've always done it She don't care about that, she thinks you've just begun it Why? Why? You say it's a dead old world, cold and unforgiving I don't know where you live but you're not living Why? Why? Keep sayin' no to her since she was a baby Keep sayin' no to her, not even maybe Why? Why? |

Like a silent ray of sunlight
Catching in my eye Like a bird sea-goin' Coasting on my sky It happens each day You're away from here... A bunch of friends are missing From this tapestry I remember kissing Do you remember me It happens each day You're away from here... Like a disembodied spirit Watching over me Like a sister sailing ship Dead against the sea It happens each day You're away from here... |

If you're looking to get a good thing going for yourself
House and pool, a new Rolls Royce and some degree of wealth Don't make waves, don't make waves, don't make waves Take a ride out West to find that freedom that you crave Kick that nine to five, don't let them make you a slave Don't make waves, don't make waves, don't makes waves And when the toys that you dreamed of have finally come They all will break and you're back where you started from Now that blue is calling you with days and nights so warm You can find excitement any size, shape or form Don't make waves, don't make waves, don't make waves Don't make waves, don't make waves, don't make waves Don't make waves, don't make waves, don't make waves Don't make waves, don't make waves, don't make waves |

Here it comes again,
It's going to happen to me. Here it comes, I should have learned to duck. She's going to say, She's going away. And I will have to live without her and survive Here it comes, It looks just like the last wave I drowned in. Here it comes, And I'm so far from shore. She's going to go, And take her trinkets. And I will have to live without her and survive Here it comes again, The night is going to fall. Here it comes, She's going to say good-bye. She's going to go, And leave only me. And I will have to live without her and survive. |

Old John Robertson he wore a Stetson hat
People everywhere would laugh behind his back No one cared to take any time to find out What he was all about, fear kept them out Children laughed and played and didn't know his name They could tell when he was coming just the same Walking slow with old John's crippled wife by his side Then she sighed, then she died Magic words from him would charm some children's ears But they laughed at him when he hid behind his tears All in vain was no game for he'd lost an old friend In the end, in the end... Old John Robertson he wore a Stetson hat People everywhere would laugh behind his back No one cared to take any time to find out What he was all about, fear kept them out |
