I was only seventeen
I fell in love with a gypsy queen She told me: "Hold on" Her father was the leading man Said: "You're not welcome on our land" And then as a foe, he told me to go He took me to a little shack And put a whip across my back Then told her: "Leave me" I was out for quite a time Came back with her on my mind Sweet little girl She means all the world Oh, I want my qypsy queen Will she still be torn between Her father and lover One day I will go to him Strong enough to fight and win The kind of a man That he'll understand |

I'm walking in your shadow
Ever since you went away And the clock on the wall Really hasn't very much to say Oh, you left me bleeding And left me needing you In so very many ways I was trying to attract your mind But I'm the lonely one 'Cause I've had to leave it all behind Lied and deceiving Why should I be grieving you Ride on a golden wave Set sail for the sun Make every cloud your slave Don't be alone When I get back from my trip Of the ocean wide Still walking in your shadow And still looking for somewhere to hide If I am worse off It's all because of you It's all because of you |

Daddy, daddy, come and look
See what I have found A little ways away from here While digging in the ground Come away Melinda Come in and close the door It's nothing, just a picture-book They had before the war Daddy, daddy, come and see Daddy, come and look Why, there's four or five Little Melinda girls Inside my picture book Come away Melinda Come in and close the door There were lots of little girls like you Before they had the war Oh Daddy, daddy, come and see Daddy, hurry do Why, there's someone In a pretty dress She's all grown up like you Won't you tell me why Come away Melinda Come in and close the door That someone is your Mummy You had before the war Daddy, daddy, tell me if you can Why can't things be The way they were Before the war began Come away Melinda Come in and close the door The answer lies in yesterday Before they had the war |

Well, the very first time

When you went away I was like a little lost boy In the wilderness And I've just been sitting here Thinking of everybody I've ever known Well, you know I still love you the best Yeah, the best |

Wake up, set your sights
For never shall we fail Stand up for your rights And justice will prevail You're listening Through endless nights And decision is your goal So wake up, set your sights Oh, the time is right for your role Yeah, or your role Wake up, wake up, wake up Set your sights Never, never, never Shall we fail Stand up, stand up, stand up For your rights Justice, justice, justice Will prevail There in the morning Flying over the hills While men are yawning They are crushed by our wills Never have I witnessed People in fear Not like today Not in many a year Go kill another There are more close behind "No" screams a mother "Are you out of your mind" Though they are shattered They just don't seem to yield Bodies are scattered In all parts of the field Oh no, did I tell you What would happen if you tried "Oh god, stop this killing!" Said a young man Before he died |

I can see that look that sends me where
you try to move in closer if you dare. So I will sit and play my waiting game. And for a while I know you'll do the same. Oh No! Watches like an eagle from its tree, then like a bird of prey she captured me. But I am older and more wise than you. Bird of prey - straight into me you fool. Oh No! Now every time I try to set her free - Yeah! Ooh! I'm glad to say she comes right back to me - Ah! But if I knew she didn't want to stay - Yeah! Ooh Ah! I wouldn't try to keep that lovely bird of prey - Ooh Ah! Ooh Ah |

She came to me one morning
one lonely Sunday morning her long hair flowing in the mid winter wind I know not how she found me for in darkness I was walking and destruction lay around me from a fight I could not win She asked me name my foe then I said the need within some men to fight and kill their brothers without thought of men or god And I begged her give me horses to trample down my enemies so eager was my passion to devour this waste of life But she would not think of battle that reduces men to animals so easy to begin and yet impossible to end For she the mother of all men had counciled me so wisely that I feared to walk alone again and asked if she would stay Oh lady lend your hand I cried Oh let me rest here at your side Have faith and trust in me she said and filled my heart with life There is no strength in numbers I've no such misconceptions But when you need me be assured I won't be far away Thus having spoke she turned away and though I found no words to say I stood and watched until I saw her black cloak disappear My labor is no easier but now I know I'm not alone I find new heart each time I think upon that windy day And if one day she comes to you drink deeply from her words so wise Take courage from her as your prize and say hello for me |

There I was on a July morning
Looking for love With the strength Of a new day dawning And the beautiful sun At the sound Of the first bird singing I was leaving for home With the storm And the night behind me And a road of my own With the day came the resolution I'll be looking for you La la la la … I was looking for love In the strangest places Wasn't a stone That I left unturned Must have tried more Than a thousand faces But not one was aware Of the fire that burned In my heart, in my mind, in my soul La la la la … There I was on a July morning I was looking for love With the strength Of a new day dawning And the beautiful sun And at the sound Of the first bird singing I was leaving for home With the storm And the night behind me Yeah, and a road of my own |
