In My Dreams

You give me something that I've never had before
You give me loving that I've never had before
Yes I love you, love you, love you, love you, love you
Baby don't you know
And I'm never never never never never gonna let you go

You give me feeling that I've never had before
I once was blind but now you've opened up the door
Yes I want you, want you, want you, want you
Darling, baby don't you know
And I'm never never never never never gonna let you go

You're always in my dreams
No matter how it seems
If I am up or down
You make me wear a crown of love
You're always in my dreams
No matter how it seems
If I am up or down
You make me wear a crown of love

I once was blind but now you've opened up my eyes
I didn't know that I was lost but now I realize
That I want you, want you, want you, want you, want you
Baby don't you know
And I need you, need you, need you, need you,
I ain't never gonna let you go

You're always in my dreams
No matter how it seems
Think about you night and day
I'm never gonna let you get away
You're always in my dreams
No matter how it seems
If I am up or down
You make me wear the crown of love

You're always in my dreams
No matter how it seems
If I am up or down
You make me wear a crown of love
Think about you night and day
Never gonna let you get away
You're always in my dreams
No matter how it seems.

You give me loving that I've never had before
You give me loving that I've never had before
Yes I need you, need you, need you, need you
Darling I love you so
And I'm never never never never never gonna let you go

I'm gonna be with you forever
I'm gonna be with you forever
I'm gonna be with you forever
I'm gonna be with you forever...

Simple Life

Like ducks take to the water
Like a daddy loves his daughter
Like bricks need sand and mortar
I saw the need of you
No smoke without a fire, no love without desire
No song without a choir
No me without a you

It's a simple life
You've got to learn to let it happen
It's a simple life
Don't complicate creation
It's a simple life
Your natural situation
Is a simple life.

Like Minnie Mouse needs Mickey
Eisenhower needed Tricky Dickie
Like Sky Bush pulled a sickie
I saw the need of you
No rum without a raisin
No fleece without a Jason
No house without a mason
No me without a you

It's a simple life
You've got to learn to let it happen
It's a simple life
Don't complicate creation
It's a simple life
Your natural situation
Is a simple life.

The answer to your question is
The problem lies between your ears
If you feel worried down or sad
Just think of the best day you've ever had
You've ever had
You've ever had
You've ever had.

It's a simple life
Like a warm fire in the winter
It's a simple life
Like silence from Harold Pinter
It's a simple life
Your natural situation
Is a simple life

The answer to your question is
The problem lies between your ears
If you feel worried down or sad
Think of the best day you've ever had
You've ever had

It's a simple life
You've got to learn to let it happen
It's a simple life
Don't complicate creation
It's a simple life
Your natural situation
Is a simple life.
Oooo it's a simple life
Oooo it's a simple life
Ooo-Oooo it's a simple life
Ooo-Oooo it's a simple life
Simple life
Simple life

This Moment



This moment is so precious,
It’s not like any other song unique
This moment like no other
Answers all your questions do not speak
Let go the fear of unknown situations
Don’t fret and you’ll get more from life
Live in the present of spiritual sound
Where the air simply moves you around

And this moment is so special
Given to you by friends who pulled you through
Let go the tension and feel the attraction
The magnet of love draws you through
The doors of deception
Where your dreams can be fulfilled
With the promise of loving renewed

And this moment of so precious
It’s not like any other song unique
And this moment like no other
It answers all your questions do not speak
The answer was there before you learned to speak
Look into my eyes
Look into my eyes.

Why?

My baby says, "Daddy is smiling
What are you thinking right now?"
I say, "It's just something I thought of
Of why we are here and how.
Everybody needs their daddy sometime
Well I know 'cos I did
And everybody needs their mama sometime
I know 'cos I did
And everybody searches for a true love
I know 'cos I did
And everybody goes a little crazy
Well I know 'cos I did

We're only human after all
We're just the slaves that nature calls
To do the bidding and the task
It's probably better not to ask
Why...why...why...why..."

My baby says, "Tell me a story
About things that you did as a child
Were you as good as you want me to be
Or were you a little bit wild?"
I said, "Now everybody cheats a little, lies and dies a little
Well, I know, 'cos I did
And everybody drinks too much and cries a little
I know 'cos I did
Everybody looks for perfection and affection
Well I know 'cos I did
And everybody wants to be the center of attention
I know 'cos I did.

We're only human after all
We're just the slaves that nature calls
To do the bidding and the task
It's probably better not to ask
Why...why...why...why...

Now everybody loses their daddy sometime
Well, I know 'cos I did
And everybody loses their mama sometime
Well, I know 'cos I did
Everybody gets a little lonely
Well I know 'cos I did
And everybody eventually gets bored
And I know 'cos I did

We're only human after all
We're just the slaves that nature calls
To do the bidding and the task
It's probably better not to ask
Why...why...why...why..."

My baby says, "Daddy is smiling
What are you thinking right now?"
I say, "It's just something I thought of
Of why we are here and how."
My baby says, "Daddy is smiling
Oh, what a pleasant surprise."
I say, "If it wasn't for you girl
There'd be no point in trying to survive."

Do It Now

How many times have you told yourself
To make that call and hang the consequences
That you imagine would ensue
If you apologize

Never leave it till it's too late
Never leave it till it's too late
Never leave it till it's too late
Do it now

It's no sacrifice to give
A little more than you intended
At the time your sense of self was bruised
Beyond demanding process

Never leave it till it's too late
Never leave it till it's too late
Never leave it till it's too late
Do it now

The inner child in you can grow up
When memories are finally defeated
Beat up, rolled up, and thrown out
Those mixed-up words and pictures of your private movies
They must be deleted, rephrased, erased, and blown out

How many times have you told yourself
She's far too good, I don't deserve it?
Knowing you're afraid to fail
Your own idea of love don't deserve it.

Never leave it till it's too late
Never leave it till it's too late
Never leave it till it's too late
Do it now

The inner child in you can grow up
When memories are finally defeated
Beat up, rolled up, and thrown out
Those mixed-up words and pictures of your private movies
They must be deleted, rephrased, erased, and blown out

How many times have you told yourself
To make that call and hang the consequences
That you imagine would ensue
If you apologize

Never leave it till it's too late
Never leave it till it's too late
Never leave it till it's too late
Do it now
Do it now
Do it now
Do it now....

Imagination Sea

So the story begins
As he searched for paradise
Thinking it was a place
Instead of a state of mind
He asked the way from the wise
As they smiled and they turned away
Faded into the mist on a perfect summer's day

When someone big in your life is suddenly whisked away
All those terrible tears
Empty and lonely days
Was it something you said? you wonder
Then softly pray
Set me free, let me go, let my spirit live again

What's my life for?
Can I make more
of love than love has made of me?
Oh, this life seems
Made of strange dreams
Adrift on imagination sea

What's my life for?
Can I make more
of love than love has made of me?
Oh, this life seems
Made of strange dreams
Adrift on imagination sea

One more kiss on the cheek
And you are a child again
The unconditional love
That cures you of every pain
Finding someone to trust
With feelings you've found again
They're buried deep in your heart
Let your spirit live again

And what's my life for?
Can I make more
of love than love has made of me?
Oh, this life seems
Made of strange dreams
Adrift on imagination sea.

Little Bird

Your heart is beating like a little bird
First you want to stay
Then you fly away
You find it hard to put it into words
And commit your heart
To a brand-new start
And you feel the cold

Your heart is beating like a little drum
When you come to me
For some sanctuary
Escaping from a self-made house of cards
Trying to have it all
But your obstacle
Is your sense of truth

No, the bird can't sing
And with a broken wing
She can't fly
So love, it dies

Your appetite for love cannot be satisfied
Feigning compromise
You don't realize
The books and films and poems that state the case
Leave one thing aside --
That joy is justified
If it comes from you

So your days go by
And the seasons fly
Only you can make you better
No, the bird can't sing
And with a broken wing
She can't fly
So love, it dies.

So your days go by
And the seasons fly
Only you can make you better
And the bird can't sing,
With her broken wing
She can't fly,
So love, it dies.

It's Not Hard

It's not hard to believe
That the sun will always rise
That the moon will take its place
And that the stars will stand in line
It's not hard to believe
That the wind will move the trees
That the wind will bring the rain
And wealth will bring you to your knees

We're unsuspecting victims of eternal circumstance
We're only broken pieces in this crazy game of chance

It's not hard to imagine
That the sea will break to shore
That whatever used to be
Will be changed forevermore
It's not hard to remember
When the times they were so good
We must always remember
That after rain there is a flood

We're unsuspecting victims of eternal circumstance
We're only broken pieces in this crazy game of chance

Underneath the surface you have peeled
When your true existence is revealed
From the outer skin down to the core
The "you" you are will be the same forevermore.

It's not hard to believe
That the sun will always rise
That the moon will take its place
And that the stars will stand in line
It's not hard to believe
That the wind will move the trees
That the wind will bring the rain
And wealth will bring you to your knees.

We're unsuspecting victims of eternal circumstance
We're only broken pieces in this crazy game of chance.

Be Yourself

Don't repeat all the same mistakes
That's what experience is for
All that energy going to waste
On something you should ignore
And go for those pastures new
And try to find someone who
Will share all those dreams with you
And just try to smile if you do

So let your conscience be your guide
You can run but you can't hide
Live with who you are inside
Just be yourself

Reconsider your instincts
When you feel somebody's been bad
Your reality's not the same
The world is all that they have
Don't fight but just walk away
Let ignorance have its day
It's sad when they have their way
They really have nothing to say

Well let your conscience be your guide
If it feels wrong let it ride
Then eventually you'll decide
To be yourself

Fashion determines nothing
Only the fact will save
Following all the leaders
When you should know just how to behave

Let your conscience be your guide
You can run but you can't hide
Live with who you are inside
Be yourself.

The Sun

Once bitten, two times shy
Afraid of lovin' 'cos it made you cry
Standing still at the crossroads of love
Make a move, darlin', heavens above
You can't wait too long whilst live passes you by
Clouds always come in a bright blue sky
Whilst all around you all the people that you see
Are showing you, showing you how good it could be

Well, it's a long time coming
When it does, grab it fast
Don't you worry 'bout how long it's gonna last
A flower wouldn't bloom if it wasn't for the rain
And if it rains
The sun is always gonna come out again
The sun is always gonna come out again

"Never again," was your constant refrain
In your experience, love always equals pain
And when a candidate came into view
You were prepared to write out an IOU
The road to success has many many signs
Fear shuts your eyes and always makes you blind
Open up your heart and take this message you get from me
Tear off your chains
Once more you'll be free

Well, it's a long time coming
When it does, grab it fast
Don't you worry 'bout how long it's gonna last
A flower wouldn't bloom if it wasn't for the rain
And if it rains
The sun is always gonna come out again
The sun is always gonna come out again

Once bitten, two times shy
Afraid of lovin' 'cos it made you cry
Standing still at the crossroads of love
Make a move, darlin', heavens above
You can't wait too long whilst live passes you by
Clouds always come in a bright blue sky
Whilst all around you all the people that you see
Are showing you, showing you how good it could be.
How good it could be

Well, it's a long time coming
When it does, grab it fast
Don't you worry 'bout how long it's gonna last
A flower wouldn't bloom if it wasn't for the rain
And if it rains
The sun is always gonna come out again
The sun is always gonna come out again
The sun is always gonna come out again.

The Affair

You saw me coming
You saw me coming
You saw me coming and you didn't step aside
You saw right through me
Reached out and touched me
And in one touch my inhibitions stepped aside

That's the way
That's the way
That's the way the affair begins
That's the day
That's the day
That's the day that the devil grins

A little later
The information
That made you think that she was free you find was wrong
But now it's too late
You are a hostage
And now you want her even though you know it's wrong

That's the way
You're a fool in the play
And the affair goes on and on and on and on and on and on and on....
That's the way
Every day
That the devil grows more strong

Now there is silence
No text or message
Your mind plays tricks and you lose your self-esteem
You close the curtains
And put the light out
The only time she's there is in your restless dreams

That's the way
That's the way
And the affair is done
That's the day
That's the day
That the devil moves on.

Greensleeves

Alas why have you done me wrong
To cut me off by leaving me
For I've been loving you so long
What can you gain by bleeding me?

Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves my heart of gold
Greensleeves was my heart of joy
And who but my lady Greensleeves

I'll do whatever you demand
Devote myself to pleasing you
I'd give my all to understand
What you desire, I'd gladly do.

Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves my heart of gold
Greensleeves was my heart of joy
And who but my lady Greensleeves

The days are long, the nighttimes too
I've lost the thing that I most need
This aching heart, it beats for you
As hopes and dreams they do recede

Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves my heart of gold
Greensleeves was my heart of joy
And who but my lady Greensleeves

I bid you, darling, sad farewell
May all your dreams be realized
And whosoever weds you, well,
He'll be in heaven before he dies

Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
Greensleeves was my heart of joy
And who but my lady Greensleeves.
