Is it a kind of dream
Floating out on the tide Following the river of death downstream Oh, is it a dream? There's a fog along the horizon A strange glow in the sky And nobody seems to know where you go And what does it mean Oh, is it a dream? Bright eyes, burning like fire Bright eyes, how can you close and fail? How can the light that burned so brightly Suddenly burn so pale? Bright eyes Is it a kind of shadow Reaching into the night Wandering over the hills unseen Or is it a dream? There's a high wind in the trees A cold sound in the air And nobody ever knows when you go And where do you start Oh, into the dark Bright eyes, burning like fire Bright eyes, how can you close and fail? How can the light that burned so brightly Suddenly burn so pale? Bright eyes Bright eyes, burning like fire Bright eyes, how can you close and fail? How can the light that burned so brightly Suddenly burn so pale? Bright eyes |

I watch the distant lights on the runway
Disappear into the evening sky Oh you know I'm with you on your journey Never could say goodbye It's not the sun you're trying to find Something else is on your mind You need a little space and time To break away It's not the place you're going to It's just a phase you're going through Though I won't stop you I don't want you to Break awa-a-a-a-ay Fly across your ocean Break awa-a-a-a-ay Time has come for you Break awa-a-a-a-ay Fly across your ocean Break awa-a-a-a-ay Time has come For you to awaken in another country Greet the morning under foreign skies Leaving me to face another Monday It's not easy to get by It's not the sun you're trying to find Something else is on your mind You need a little space and time To break away It's not the place you're going to It's just a phase you're going through Though I won't stop you I don't want you to Break awa-a-a-a-ay Fly across your ocean Break awa-(breakaway)-a-ay Time has come for you Break awa-(breakaway)-a-ay Fly across your ocean Break awa-(breakaway)-a-ay Time has come for you |

New York
To that tall skyline I come Flyin' in from London To your door New York Lookin' down on Central Park Where they say you should not wander after dark New York Like a scene from all those movies But you're real enough to me There's a heart A heart that lives in New York A heart in New York, a rose on the street I write my song to that city heartbeat A heart in New York, the love in her eyes An open door and a friend for the night New York You've got money on your mind And my words don't make a dime's worth of difference So here's to you New York |

Keeping my eyes on the road, I see you.
Keeping my hands on the wheel, I hold you. 99 Miles From L.A., I kiss you, I miss you, please be there. Passing the white sandy beach, we're sailing. Turning the radio on, we're dancing. 99 Miles From L.A., I want you, I need you, please be there. The windshield is covered with rain, I'm cryin'. Pressing my foot on the gas, I'm flyin'. Counting the telephone poles, I phone you. Reading the signs on the road, I write you. 99 Miles From L.A., we're laughing, we're loving, please be there. Counting the telephone poles, I phone you. Reading the signs on the road, I write you. 99 Miles From L.A., we're laughing, we're loving, please be there. |

I bruise you, you bruise me
We both bruise too easily Too easily to let it show I love you, and that's all I know All my plans have fallen through All my plans depend on you Depend on you to help them grow I love you, and that's all I know When the singer's gone Let the song go on... But the ending always comes at last Endings always come too fast They come too fast, but they pass to slow I love you, and that's all I know When the singer's gone Let the song go on It's a fine line between the darkness and the dawn They say the darkest night There's a light beyond But the ending always comes at last Endings always come too fast They come too fast, but they pass too slow I love you, and that's all I know That's all I know That's all I know |

Don't know much about history,
Don't know much biology. Don't know much about a science book, Don't know much about the French I took. But I do know that I love you, And I know that if you love me, too, What a wonderful world this would be. Don't know much about geography, Don't know much trigonometry. Don't know much about algebra, Don't know what s slide rule is for. But I do know one and one is two, And if this one could be with you, What a wonderful world this would be. I don't claim to be an 'A' student, But I'm tryin' to be, For maybe by being an 'A'-student, baby, I can win your love for me. Don't know much about history, Don't know much biology. Don't know much about a science book, Don't know much about the French I took. But I do know that I love you, And I know that if you love me, too, What a wonderful world this would be. History Biology Science book French I took. But I do know that I love you, And I know that if you love me, too, What a wonderful world this would be. |

My love must be a kind of blind love
I can't see anyone but you Are the stars out tonight? I don't know if it's cloudy or bright I only have eyes for you, dear The moon may be high But I can't see a thing in the sky 'Cause I only have eyes for you I don't know if we're in a garden Or on a crowded avenue You are here, so am I Maybe millions of people go by But they all disappear from view And I only have eyes for you The moon may be high But I can't see a thing in the sky 'Cause I only have eyes for you You are here, so am I Maybe millions of people go by But they all disappear from view I don't know if we're in a garden Or on a crowded avenue You are here, so am I Maybe millions of people go by But they all disappear from view And I only have eyes for you |

How delicate the tracery of her fine lines
Like the moonlight lacetops of the evening pines Like a song half heard through a closed door Like an old book when you cannot read the writing anymore How innocent her visage as my child lover lies Pressed against the rainswept windy windows of my eyes Like an antique etching glass design That somehow turned out wrong I keep looking through old varnish At my late lover's body Caught on ancient canvas And decaying...disappearing Even as I sing this song How secretly and silently my sorrow disappears You can't see it with your eyes or hear it with your ears It's like a Watermark that's never there and never really gone I keep looking through old varnish At my late lover's body Caught on ancient canvas And decaying...disappearing Even as I sing this song Even as I sing this song Even as I sing this song |

shattered dreams worthless years
here am i encased inside a hollow shell life began then was done now i stare into a cold and empty well the many sounds that meet our ears the sights our eyes behold will open up our melting hearts and feed our empty souls i believe when i fall in love with you it will be forever i believe when i fall in love this time it will be forever without despair we will care and the joys of caring will not be replaced what has been must never end and with the strength we have wont be erased when the truths of love are planted firm they wont be hard to find and the words of love i speak to you will echo in my mind i believe when i fall in love with you it will be forever i believe when i fall in love this time it will be forever i believe when i fall in love with you it will be forever i believe when i fall in love this time it will be forever {the following are repeated simultaneously...... in layers} im so glad that i found someone to believe in again im so glad that i found someone to believe in again god answered my prayers god answered my prayers god answered my prayers god answered my prayers god always will answer your prayers god always will answer your prayers believe in god he will answer your prayers thank you god cmon lets fall in love youre the woman i been dreamin of cmon lets fall in love youre the girl that i really adore dont you wanna dont you wanna dont you wanna fall in love dont you wanna dont you wanna dont you wanna fall in love .....repeat all these lyrics in a blissful manner to fade out....... |

(Jimmy Webb)
"If they ever drop the bomb," you said, "I'll find you in the flames." But now we act like people Who don't know each other's names. Well, sometimes it makes me sad, you know. Sometimes it makes me smile. 'Cause you know how the game goes, honey. We all eat it once in awhile. Scissors cut, paper covers rock Breaks the shining scissor You hurt me I hurt her and she goes and we will miss her Now, I look around at people Playing children's games. And I wonder if you're still thinking You might find me somewhere in the flames. Scissors cut, paper covers rock Breaks the shining scissor You hurt me I hurt her and she goes and we will miss her |

All the friends I belived in
I believed in for a while They had their flair They had their style But nobody quite got it right Nobody knew just how it feels to be me... But sometimes when I'm dreaming And I dream a lot these days I need someone who understands Who leads me through the haze It's only when I'm dreaming That I fall in love for real But I wake up screaming Sometimes when I'm dreaming And it's now that I need a friend I reach out for the phone Nobody's there, nobody's home Though it may not be right to give up the fight I'm sailing away Now I'm on my own Alone... But sometimes when I'm dreaming And I dream a lot these days I need someone who understands Who leads me through the haze It's only when I'm dreaming That I fall in love for real But I wake up screaming Sometimes when I'm dreaming But I wake up screaming Sometimes when I'm dreaming |

It's The Same Old Tears On A New Background,
Seeing you as a fading photograph It hurts too much to laugh these days. I'm all right, yes, I'm all right, all right. It's the same old song with a new melody, But this old candle's lingering flame is almost gone, To see you again is all that keeps me hangin' on. I'm all right, yes, I'm all right, all right. Remembering, remembering the familiar heartache, No one but you It's the same old me crying the same old tears And I walk away like I always do Still in love with you. But I'm all right, yes, I'm all right, all right. All right |
