One Dream
04:51
|
|||
|
Lying in your bed alone broken hearted
Seems like the whole world turned on you
Even all your friends act like such strangers
You want to run away from there, go someplace new
Everyone in that laid back town is sleeping
You're wide awake and your mind is filled with doubt
The road ahead goes on forever, for worse or better,
never turn around
CHORUS:
One dream after the other, you'll find one real and true
That's when you will discover, something your heart always
knew
This world was made for you
Believe what you see now with your eyes closed
Let your conscience lead the way
Every precious second of every minute, of every hour
of every day

Paris

|

Night in Paris, waiting for the telephone to ring
In the streets below we could hear the drunkards sing, but we
didn't know the song
Half the moon, had painted boulevards and avenues, like all
those famous painters tried to do, as if it knew somehow you'd
come along
Today, when ancient bells came ringing from the tower
It woke me from my ordinary dreams
A melody that Gainsbourg used to sing, went floating through
my mind
Tonight an angel lies awake with open arms, and love is by her
side standing guard
Oh life will be much different from now on
I can feel it, in my soul and on the breeze
From the beau marche to the rue di revoli
They all say it wont be long
Oh baby, I think it must have been the hands of grace, that brought
us all together in this place, where life will be much different from
now on

I Can't Do Anything
04:05
|

|
Days are dark, nights are long, feeling weak, the need is strong
You're trying, but it won't let you go
There's not a thing, I would not give, to see you smile, and want to
live, but all my crying, just won't make it so
And I cant stop the pain, no i cant do anything
CHORUS:
Living in a world broken in two,it's out of hand
Shaking in fear, driven to tears, it's here again
Under your skin, you let them back in, your long
last friends
And I cant stop the pain, no I can't do anything
Time is tight,it slips away
Every second of everyday it's flying, then crash to the ground
Reach for love you're not alone, it's in your hands, it will carry
you home
And I can't stop the pain, no I can't do anything

Guilty Eyes
03:34
|
|||
|
Chorus:
Don't point those guilty eyes at me, turn them around and
maybe you will see
When you do the right thing the truth will set you free
Don't point those guilty eyes at me
Look in the mirror, listen to your heart, turn on your lovelight
quit walkin' round in the dark
You want to make me happy, want to make me believe
Don't point those guilty eyes at me
Forget all those words, that I've heard before
Like I didn't do it, when I know for sure
Take a deep breath, no use to deny
Oh oh ohyou cannot live a lie
We're beneath the stars, the full moon is out
it's a beautiful night, let's talk this thing out
It's not like we're strangers, let's cut out the jive
Oh oh oh oh let's keep this thing alive

What A Life
04:04
|

|
August faded, no longer shaded, old Ely's boathouse at night
Too young to drive home, walking all alone, down the bay road
moonlight
Sitting ducks floating on the frozen bay The things you do at thirteen
to pass the time away
All is right, what a life
Growing through changes, everyday is, another mystery found
Girls and music. they pull you through it, and someday soon you'll
leave that town
Don't seem like much, just that little that you've got, but it's gonna be
enough, believe it or not
All is right, what a life
Don't even have a dollar in your dirty hands, and that's too bad says
your old man
His eyes so cold, that his face you cannot stand
But Mother made up for it in the end
Rhymes keep rolling, they can't be stolen, childhood happiness
that was a long time, now locked safe in your mind, the faces and places
are quite fresh
All those dreams that lit up in the dark, some are dead, some still live on in
your heart
All is right, what a life

Girl On The North Shore
03:55
|
|||
|
It's a fact, she knows where she's goin', lookin' back there was no way
of knowin'
All those miles that sailed through her eyes, landed her in a fool's
paradise
At Sunset Harbor, the water's gold and honey Maryanne tends bar,
taking sailor's money
her soul still lives in the lower forty-eight, but she can't keep her mind
off the captain's first mate
Here's where her heart keeps breaking All the years she's forsaken
That sweet gypsy violin plays songs of Angels in the wind
Calling her back again, she's on her own She's just looking for a
way back home
Another night watching the four winds blow, in a land time forgot, where
blue roses grow
Dancing with dreamers on the northern shore Is he ever coming back,
will she see him anymore
Though his ship may come never, will she wait here forever
That sweet gypsy violin plays sons of Angels in the wind
Calling her back again, she's on her own She's just looking for a way
back home
